Planting a voice in your head

Did you ever try to think in an other persons voice?

You know we all have our own thought-voice (which is quite different from our real voice btw), so what if we artificially replace this voice.

I tried and succeeded even to read in someone elses voice. Its not hard at all.

So I wonder what would happen if I was to read say a couple of books in someone elses voice?

Thats somewhat scary!|||Wow - What a concept Galabab

BTW Who are Mel Blanc and Rich Little?

Robin Williams and Jonathan Winters?





On the other hand what do the voices tell you to do ?|||When I say to read, I dont mean aloud. Just "think" a whole book or two in someones voice.

I dont think Mel Blanc ever thought as his figures, he just spoke.

I wonder if someone can totally suppress his own thought-voice and replace it with a different one. Where does it lead?

Schizophrenia? Real-voice mimicry? Telepathy? WORLD DOMINATION?|||Telepathy, which I used to suggest the creation of this topic.

I suppose it could be used for "world dominating" purposes but I just use my powers to compel people to do silly things. Sorry about Tiger Woods and the Teabaggers, btw... or not. I haven't decided yet.|||I actually think my inside voice sounds very similiar to my real voice.

It's for sure better than my phone voice, which sounds like I got a mouth full of....stuff.

I try doing another voice like Jim Carry's various characters, or sean Connery...but it just sounds like me in real life trying to sound like them.

So it's true, for me at least, that a split personality...can use the same voice...

..isn't that right Hank...

"whatever".|||I have enough of my own|||I started reading this entire thread in the internal voice of the guy who narrated the "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" movie, and it has worked quite smashingly. Even as I write this, the words are forming in my head using that voice.

Thanks for all the fish!|||Quote:

Jonathan Winters has books and albums for sale and seems to fit your description of where it leads.



In his "Archive of American Television Interviews," Winters reported that he suffered a nervous breakdown and spent eight months in a private mental hospital in the late 1950s. Although he was not given a diagnosis while in the hospital, he was later diagnosed with manic depression (known today as bipolar disorder). The comedian referred to this incident obliquely in his stand-up act, most famously on his 1960 comedy album The Wonderful World of Jonathan Winters. During his classic "flying saucer" routine, Winters casually mentions that if he wasn't careful, the authorities might put him back in the "rubber room," referring to the institution.|||the other day I read something in Henry Fonda's voice, does that count?|||if i read a meme with a celeb in it, i will hear their voice. usually, i hear my own. sometimes, i will hear people who aren't there, but i see now that that is Dredd's fault. thanks, Dredd. and all this time i thought i was crazy!
