Subject: ot: baby voices


do any fathers/mothers among us have recordings of their kid's voices when
they were very young? when they couldn't talk yet but tried to?

I'm fascinated by small kids' pre-language 'language', their expressivity
and emotionality - and especially by the dramatic effect you get when you
slow those recordings down to a normal grown-up voice pitch: try it and it
will make your hair stand on end (especially with voices of angry kids :-)

I'd like to research and experiment with this effect and, with enough
material, make a composition (some kind of opera for slowed-down babies 
:-).
unfortunately I don't have any kids and not many recordings either, so I'd
be very grateful for any recordings you could send me. please contact me
off-list if you think you've got something. your kids might become famous.
