💬🧠💪 Moving your arms can change how you sound. When we move our arms, the muscles affect lung volume—affecting loudness and intensity of our voice. The body and voice are well connected, with potential implications for speech therapy and human-like robotics: 👉

Check out our study soon to be published in Proceedings B🗣️💪📈 It was a lot of fun working with @wimpouw.bsky.social, @lsburchardt.bsky.social, and Luc Selen on this one! I particularly love the figures, the #RMarkdown, and the #opendata on this one📂😊
Update: Our biomechanics EMG/Posture study on voice and upper limb kinetics has been accepted at Proceedings B. We show that moving the arms (while manipulating mass) recruits (postural) muscles that interact with the voice through respiratory interactions. Postprint: wimpouw.com/files/Pouwet...

It's the first description of the spectral characteristics of speech breath noises produced by a large number of speakers. In addition, we modeled in- and exhalations with 3D-printed vocal tract models 🫁

did a brilliant job! This paper analyses #respiratory noise in a large German population. The spectral shape of breath noise is decreasing.
