Search Results - Spoken word

Type in a word or phrase to search, you can also type in Article ID's separated by commas:

Spoken word is a style of performance poetry that began in New York City and became popular in the early nineties. It evolved from the oral tradition of free-style hip hop artists and poets who would perform at local open mics. Unlike previous styles of poetry, spoken word is usually written with the intention of being performed. It emphasizes the tone of the human voice, which adds another layer of meaning for interpretation. While spoken word poems may vary in style, most have a narrative, include some form of social commentary and range from being two to three minutes long.

Spoken word did not evolve until the late 1980s and early 1990s with the emergence of "poetry slams," where spoken word artists would square off in cabaret-style duels.[citation needed] This type of competitive slam poetry event has been popular in India for centuries.[citation needed] In the United States, the competition of slam poetry probably arose from rap music and rapper competitions.[citation needed] The common element is protest and a critical or corrective tone.[citation needed] Nuyorican Poets Cafe in New York City is one of the earliest venues where poets could protest the ills of society.[citation needed] Def Poets on HBO became the most visible venue for slam-type protest poets, but the poets did not necessarily compete against each other for audience approval. Hip-hop is now commonly considered under the general genre of spoken word as shown in a recent article by Clare Morgan in the Sydney Morning Herald.[1]

Spoken Word was adopted by college circles in the early 80's to describe a new wave of performing arts that was birthed during Postmodern Art Movement. Spoken Word was basically a catchall phrase to describe anything that didn’t fit into the already established categories of performance arts like music, theatre, and dance.[2]

By definition spoken word is a category of performance art to encompass an new seriously developed genre or traditional form that is primarily word-based and is not exclusively music, theatre, or dance but may include collaborations with other non word-based art genres or works created in collaboration with artists from non word-based disciplines.[4]

1. Couple's Jewelry - Send a Romantic Message without Saying a Word
November 10, 2009

How often it happens to you that words don’t come out when they are needed the most? Have you ever said somebody to leave you alone when you actually need them to hold you tight? Do the well memorized lines come out as broken sentences when spoken in front of your admiration? Is there any word that can testify the height of passion that you hold for your loved one? No matter how intense we go with our language and vocabulary, words would always fail to communicate love. It’s because love is not a single emotion but an intricate mixture of contrasting feelings. In such case you need somet... (read more)

2. The Unique Individual by Rodney Howard Browne
November 05, 2009

Where had he gone wrong? He had taken God at His word, stood before Pharaoh, and repeated-almost word perfectly-what God had ordered him to say. He claimed the right words, at the right time, to the right person, spoken in the correct way. The folks he had longed to help ( for over 40 years ) were now cursing him for enlarging their difficulties and misery. you did the right things in the best way but somebody misread you, reading motives into your acts or words that you never intended. And now you live under that cloud, unable to switch the minds of folks that have turned against you. W... (read more)

5. Dragon - Speak and Type
October 17, 2009

"When David told me that he's speaking at typing speeds upwards of 500 words per minute I was blown away..." I may have found the best tool since the invention of the keyboard. It's called Dragon Naturally Speaking. This is a piece of software that comes with a headset so I can speak what I want to write. Literally every word you're reading. I have spoken out loud. It was typed onto my screen for me. I was introduced to Dragon by a colleague, David Lawrence, who runs The Efficient Practice. I was skeptical at first because I'm a fast typist. My typing speed is 95 to 105 words per min... (read more)

7. Interviewing a celebrity or an expert - why not document it?
October 05, 2009

Archiving the written word has more meaning, than archiving a spoken word, because validating text is possible, but validating speech is not. The interview transcripts provide readers an insight of the celebrity’s views, beside researchers benefit by accessing the transcripts of high profile experts in the fields of science, medicine, or history. It enables researchers to copy parts of a written text and prepare the research papers, rather than listen to the audio recording of the interview repeatedly, and then make notes of them. Many librarians assert that fewer people use audio recordings ... (read more)
