Hola, Buenos díaz,

I’m Tovie and today my teacher forced me to write a blog post about what I read in Wananga!! Anyway, the story I read was about a photographer named Edith Amituanai. The story was about her taking photos of her surroundings and the people she knows as if they were unfamiliar.

What she did was she stood at the end of her driveway and took photos of the school kids walking to and from school. She said that she had a lot of people walk up to her and ask ‘why are you taking photos of me?’ and she also said a lot of them just smiled and walked by.

Anyway that’s what I read !!

Adios and thankyou for reading my blog !!<3

What is Mongolian throat singing ?
Khoomi involves using the diaphragm and throat to sing one tone and the mouth to sing another one or two. It sounds like one voice singing two or more notes at the same time, both the fundamental base note and a harmonic tone or note on top of that. It is both beautiful and strange with a few notes coming from one voice and a single singer. The bass note from the singer’s throat and the higher, harmonic notes from the mouth, sometimes sounding like a waterfalls or monks chanting.

What is whistling ?

Whistling in singing involves creating musical sounds by blowing air through pursed lips or using a specific mouth technique. It requires precise control of airflow and mouth shape, usually by puckering the lips and adjusting the tongue position to produce different pitches. Whistling typically results in high pitches, and skilled whistlers can achieve a wide range of notes. It’s used in various music genres, like in Otis Redding’s “(Sittin’ On) The Dock of the Bay,” adding unique texture and conveying emotions. Whistling demands practice to maintain pitch, tone, and consistency, much like learning to play a musical instrument. Overall, it is a versatile and expressive technique in music.
