Anatomy of Articulation and Resonation Outline

The source-filter theory of vowel production is:

• a theory that describes how the vocal tract filters sound produced by the vocal cords to create different vowel sounds.

• a theory that explains how vowels are produced by the movement of the tongue and lips.

• a theory that focuses on the role of the diaphragm in vowel production.

• a theory that describes vowel production as a result of air pressure changes in the lungs.

The two in-class demos of source-filter theory are:

• Vocal tract modeling and glottal source simulation

• Spectrogram analysis and pitch detection

• Formant synthesis and harmonic analysis

• Waveform editing and frequency modulation

What are the articulators?

• Parts of the body involved in speech production

• Musical instruments

• Types of vehicles

• Cooking utensils

What are mobile articulators?

• Devices used in dentistry to simulate jaw movement

• Mobile phones with speech recognition

• Portable music players

• Handheld gaming consoles

Immobile articulators are:

• parts of the mouth that do not move

• parts of the mouth that move

• muscles involved in speech

• none of the above
