Florian Haas - Ignite OSCON 2014
summary
Voice production mirrors brass instruments: vibration in the vocal folds plus body resonance. Claim: saliva is the only internal lubricant, so drink water, avoid orange juice and cigarettes because acids and sugar make saliva irritating. Practical tools: relaxed posture, speak slightly lower to feel chest resonance, and if hoarse use a steam shower and inhalation to humidify then perform a gentle vocal-fold massage. Promises are concrete actions that reduce strain and let a 45–60 minute talk be delivered without wrecking the voice.
