The Music of the Voice

-
  The following article is my initial research into using the voice like a musical instrument. Sometimes, I use it when I do my improvised and non-improvised quality musical whistling which I am so well-known in Slough. Some test  recordings can be found on my Facebook site.  RS The following is a short article on the subject below. It appeared a long while ago on the p2pfoundation  site. RS Improvised Voice Instrumental Music Jump to navigation Jump to search Description Project by Robert Searle This entry is concerned with the possible development of Improvised Voice Instrumental Music, which can also be more simply referred to as Vocal Music. Essentially, it involves the use of the human voice to imitate musical instruments realistically but at the same time producing new compositions spontaneously (ie. improvised, impromptu/on the spot pieces). This latter feature distinguishes it from ordinary non-improvised melodious, and "non-melodious" Voice Instrumental Musi...

living in Windsor

  From about 1962 to 1977 I lived in a house  at 74 King's Road, Windsor. It was set behind some grand old buildings overlooking the Long Walk. It was situated in an exclusive area.  A narrow drive just off King's Road itself led to not just 74 but also to number 76. Both the houses were apparently designed in a very modern style for their time by an architect who lived at the latter. His name was Edward Whiteley. His wife was called Beryl...  Sometimes, I would read books aloud to her outside her front door. She notably introduced me to Alice In Wonderland, and Alice Through The Looking Glass. I introduced her to the comic world of Catweazle which was a well-known TV series. I read the book based on it to her, and she was much taken by it. Infact, I actually met Richard Carpenter the author of Catweazle via the Puffin Club, and even got his autograph which I treasured. We hardly saw Edward Whiteley. Indeed, we used to call him Red Ted as we thoug...

The Windsor "Invasion" by Extinction Rebellion

Towards the end of  2024 I thought I would see  the Extinction Rebellion protest which was trying to get greater credible action to tackle Climate Change.For this I arrived at Windsor (which was very close to where I lived) by train and as I walked upto the entrance of the elaborate and huge  railway station where I saw a crowd of musically noisey people going up towards King Henry VIII's  gateway which was the main entrance into Windsor Castle. However, a number of police were stationed to ensure that the protesters could not enter the grounds for fear of some riot. Yet, there were only a small number of people amounting possibly upto two or three  hundred. I expected more to be there but that was not the case. Maybe there were some other protesters elsewhere but nearby the scene which was unfolding before my eyes! Anyway, I decided to sit and watch the protest on one of the public seats leading upto King Henry VIII's gateway. A certain protester in his latter ...

  Section I The following biodata includes links in the second section of this page as well as articles in the third section Brief Summary Robert Searle was educated in Windsor at the Royal Free, the Tutorials, and East Berkshire College. He is the originator of two major "work in progress" Paradigms known as Transfinancial Economics (TFE), and Multi-Dimensional Science (MDS).The former believes that new unearned money could be electronically created without serious inflation notably for key environmental, and socially ethical projects. Multi-Dimensional Science though presents an unique "scientific" Methodology by which claimed psychic, and spiritual "phenomena"could possibly be "proved". Apart from the above, Searle has proposed the development of the Universal Debating Project, a structured interactive "encyclopedia" of virtually "all" pro, and con arguments for practically any subject in the world.He is the creator too of ...
