In shame I will find paradise: speech to text function in exploring transgender voice

Talk Description:

In Shame I Will Find Paradise focuses on using gender-affirming voice therapy as a starting point to explore nuanced feelings of displacement and the intricate relationships between language, identity, and expression.

The project is largely based on my dialogues with Umico Niwa, who traveled to Korea for voice feminization surgery, and Jeong Lee, a close friend and four-year participant in Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT). Using the mistranslation and glitches from speech to text javascript codes, this project by creating audio visualizers that investigate the tension between language, identity, and expression associated with voice in transgender experience and potentially a playful encryption.
