"and i'm just, like, fully sobbing just because i've reached another octave or another note in my body. like there's a part of my body that had been shut off."

"y'know, 'cause what she wants you to get to is ultimately that place when you're born and you're just screaming. and there's no tension. it's all, again, going back to total freedom, letting the unconscious come through, letting the dreams come through."

"like, just being fully wholly completely in touch with the self, which we're never gonna get to until, if we're lucky, the last breath of our lives. and that's what keeps us in that divine dissatifaction place with our voice or otherwise with our craft."

this is wild to me. i've experienced exactly this shift from the other direction - unblocked some big tension, gained access to a part of my body i didn't have access to before, and found a *new resonance in my singing voice* that wasn't there before

idk what exactly andrew garfield was doing with this woman but sounds like there's a chance they were doing it from the other direction - looking for blocks by starting from what notes he couldn't sing. which is fascinating and i might try it. hmm

Replying to @WorriedDenizen and @QiaochuYuan
Told her about this thread and she mentioned an interesting question: How can toddlers and babies scream for hours without becoming hoarse?
Pediatricians say it’s physical, singers say it’s technical - children lack the anxiety and constraint that adults have to unlearn to sing.

Having one of the most transformative experiences of my life with a new voice teacher. Methodology was developed by a medic from WWI who couldn't stop hearing the screams of wounded soldiers. He cured himself by vocalizing extreme sounds — combo of "catharsis and exorcism."
