The Voice is a Language

While researching Roland Barthes' essay "The Grain of the Voice" (from Image, Music, Text), I came across this blog:

It relates to a screening and performance event THE VOICE IS A LANGUAGE shown at Tramway, Glasgow as part of Glasgow International 2010. The project featured various artists responding to the work of avant-garde pioneer Meredith Monk. The project explored the dispersal of the voice and its relationship to image and sought to displace the primacy of the linguistic in favour of a synthetic language.
