One Of The Greatest Speeches In Movie History Posted: 7 months ago by 2manyusernames
Charlie Chaplain's The Great Dictator bitterly satirized Nazism and Adolf Hitler before the full extent of the horrors of Nazism had been uncovered.
The final speech was pretty much out of character and was Chaplain's personal views and a political statement. It is a speech that still holds up today almost 70 years later.

I want to share this with those that haven't seen this movie or forgot about it. I just watched is in the weekend and I think that it is a great "talkie" movie that is quite actual in its topics, considering the struggles of the current societies.

Free Speech - Only In America Posted: 5 months ago by 2manyusernames
Freedom of Speech is one of America's greatest rights. Sadly it is a very rare freedom. Many countries - even countries you'd expect to be freedom-lovers say no to free speech. Oh you have the right to say nice sweet things, but you can't say anything mean or negative, anything that might hurt a group's feelings.
wasn't going to post this, but it fit in with the salon owner article

Sine Wave Speech Posted: 10 months ago by mahler87
This is a trippy perceptual phenomenon which will mess with your head a little bit. Sine wave speech is artificially degraded speech that sounds like just beeps and whistles until you have been primed to hear it as speech. Try it, you will be amazed!

Software spots the spin in political speeches Posted: 2 months ago by bingo
Technology is here to help. Software programs that analyse a person's speech, voice or facial expressions are building upon the work of researchers like Ekman to help us discover when the truth is being stretched, and even by how much.
