Description

Nonverbal language is a rich source of indexical and symbolic information in
speech communication and a demanding field for scientific, technological, and
artistic investigation. There is no spoken communicative interaction in which
pragmatic meanings are not conveyed either by voice quality, speech prosody or
body gestures. Structuring prosodic information in its varied forms is the
means the speaker uses to give a particular meaning to her/his saying. The
study of prosody of speech produced by a human speaker or a machine in
real-life situations for the purposes of informing, communicating,
entertaining, impressing on the listener, and enabling dialogue in the context
of human-human or human-machine interactions can help us gain a better
understanding of how prosody shapes speech production and perception in
diverse domains such as technology, art, and scientific investigation.

The main goal of this Research Topic is to shed light on how vocal and visual
prosodic information varies across the most diverse situations of real life to
express meaning. We welcome submissions on emotional prosody, vocal
aesthetics, and the prosodic expression of different attitudes in real-life
situations, including human-machine interaction and art and entertainment.

Particular themes may include, but are not limited to:

- Prosodic meaning in spontaneous situations
- Indexical meaning in spoken communication
- Prosody of speaking, declamation and singing styles
- Voices and talking heads in TTS systems
- Voices in oral poetry and synesthetic kinds of art
- Voices in the entertainment industry, especially in animations
- Voices in the cinema, theatre, TV, radio, and other media performances
- Vocal and visual prosody in linguistic, paralinguistic, and extralinguistic
features
- Vocal stereotypes, sound symbolism, and voice aesthetics
- Sonorities and their synesthetic perceptual effects
- Sonorities and their effect on wellbeing, mental health, and related
areas
- Sonorities in sensory landscapes
- Sonorities in animal communication
- Sonorities and cross modalities

Keywords: Prosody, prosodic meaning, speech technology, vocal aesthetics,
speech research
