in a recent blog entry, polarheart asked what various soulcasters look like. i responded that i don't personally tend to form a mental picture of most people but i do tend to associate the voices of various actors or personalities w/ some folks.
however, here are the ones that i have formed*...
alienated: will forever and always in my mind be reminiscent of kevin costner, oddly enough. and if you thought i was gonna say marvin the martian, i've got a trout w/ your name on it.
bloc, to me, has a voice that is reminiscent of rob lowe's: maybe it's just that i liked the west wing but there's a certain earnestness that just works for his persona.
CW in my head has the same voice as ina garten (of the barefoot contessa on food network) although w/ more of the characteristic flattening of the vowels that i associate w/ those living where she lives. i was already headed in that direction when she once observed that she sorta resembles ina garten in the first place.
daily for some reasons sounds vaguely like helen hunt--helen hunt was very good at creating a very breathless quality during mad about you and that seems to fit w/ the tone of her blogs and comments.
wrong accent, i know, but otherwise, for me GS unmistakably speaks with the voice of alex kingston, formerly of ER: i see the same kind of capacity both for composure and urgency.
kelly will always speak w/ the voice of my sister, in my mind. the resemblances are actually a bit creepy, sometimes: same sense of humor and wit.
mimi is voiced in my head by a strange combination of jennifer tilly, who i normally dislike, but just a tad snarkier in delivery. i know she says a mature woman but i always read so much playfulness and youth in the way she posts so it seemed to fit.
mom speaks with the same voice as brett butler when i read her comments.
MR will to me always be associated w/ the voice of sandra bullock. i cannot explain why, so please don't ask.
sean renaud is voiced by d. l. hughley to me when i read him.
sorry folks, but that's really as many as i've got. i don't generally associate speaking voices w/ other men, i'm afraid, so i hope the gentlemen won't be offended. ladies that i've missed, it was hard to do several of you justice. in all cases, my apologies for the omissions.
so what kind of voice do you associate w/ other soulcasters?
please note: i will cheerfully delete any comment that's flamebait, no matter what else might be in it. no exceptions.
ed
*i am removing from these lists those whose speaking voices i actually have heard, either due to having met or at least spoken on the phone, in addition to those for whom i've never really formed a clear voice in my head.

MissMimi said on Mar 13, 2007....
Hey, Ed, you forgot sweet! I have an alto singing voice, so I suspect my voice is a bit lower than Jennifer Tilly's. And I don't have the, I'll call it baby-ishness, that hers does. My extended family lives in northeast Ohio, and I've been told I've acquired a slight southern accent living in southwest Ohio. I think my accent is very generic--like a radio news reader.
There are three soulcasters whose voices I've heard, and honestly the others I haven't given a lot of thought to. Let me think on it.

polarheart said on Mar 13, 2007....
Ed, now this again is very difficult for me, but I will say that I think you must sound a lot like Keanu Reeves because in my mind's eye you look a lot like him.I will give the other's some thought and come back later. -

gingersoul said on Mar 13, 2007....
Polar....hey.....this is amazing......because i picture SW exactly like you do....are we telepatic or what?? :-)
SW.....yes....i pictured you physically like him (tall and slim and dark hair and eyes) so the voice comes too ..just with a higher pitch and faster pace.....it must be your Matrix like ability to be in 300 blogs at the same moment or you sword ability in troutsmacking...go figure....:-)
yes Keanu has this stoner look but hey......better looks like him than Dave Spader or Carrothead..or George Bush......LOL..
Btw......Kingston for me, eh? Sorry....wrong...lol.....but interesting though.... may i ask the reason of this association?..... :-)

silverwhisper said on Mar 13, 2007....
GS: yeah, i knew i'd probably get that one wrong, but in the performances i've seen of her, she's had both the compassion and warmth as well as the kind of insight you seem to wield so often. that's pretty much it.
[shrugs]
i think i'll refrain from commenting re: keanu otherwise for now, though. :D
ed -
polarheart said on Mar 13, 2007....
Well, Ed, it was meant as a compliment as Keanu has a large female following and I think his voice is not half bad either.I could have drawn some conclusions re the "stoner" bit, but I thought I ask the source. . .see I'm even starting to talk Matrix language!Ginger - we must be on the same wave length, but I was REALLY surprised to hear that you are blonde and not olive skinned. . .but I DID imagine you to have long straight hair tied up in ponytail at the back of your head that bounces when you walk!! -
gingersoul said on Mar 13, 2007....
Polar...........lol..i know, i know...i get that look of surprise often when i say i am Italian....everybody expect Italian women to be mini Sophia Loren...(i wish, i wish)...but the ponytail hair are there when i am at the gym...and they do bounce when i walk....thank you...;-)...you didnt tell me if i got you right in describing you .....
SW....thank you so much....i couldn't have a better explanation......{hug}
Why are you not happy with our Keanu connection with you? Its your voice so different?
Mine is of an higher pitch of Kingston....i can define it better telling how it is not: i dont have a raspy, deep or monotone or nasal kind of voice.....people describes it as a warm, very variable in tones, musical and uplifting kind of voice...and naturally very sexy..because of my accent ....LOL......its not my fault.......*wink*

polarheart said on Mar 13, 2007....
Ginger, I will go back and comment on the original post in a while and then you can see if you were accurate or not :-)) -
silverwhisper said on Mar 13, 2007....
ladies, i know it was intended as a compliment, and i didn't mean to sound so ungracious: thank you. :>
GS: you know how different your voice always sounds to others (when recorded) than it does to yourself? i'll confess i have a bad impression of him for various reasons but that's neither here nor there. ah, well. :> and yes, we yanks do tend to find those accents quite attractive.

Ed, I never thought about the voices of us all here! Thanks for the Helen Hunt, lol! Throw in the Boston accent with it. I have a thick one.
I think of Ed as Johnny Depp, not as a pirate though, lol!
I can't hear Gingie's accent. I don't know why, but I just can't! Could it be because of the people that live in the North End in Boston, the slick Italian's that drive me nuts? I don't want to hear her like I hear them! They're always shouting and swearing up a storm! I can hear Polar's accent, but I can't yet put a famous person with it. I'll have to come back.

Bronx said on Mar 13, 2007....
It can be difficult voicing out what most Soulcasters sound like.
For me, the image of their sound byte is clogged up by whether or not they are male or female, what they've said, and how they've reacted to issues in the past.
Other than stereotyping, it's tough to imagine, for example, Ginger as a fast-talking blonde Italian, or Zayda's voice at a lecture.
Not knowing the relative ages also messes up the picture a bit.
-
momsrock said on Mar 13, 2007....
Ed, Sandra Bullock is actually pretty close...but the similarities are more in the way she say things...and we're both a little quirky... My voice is a little higher pitched, softer and my father thinks it's whiny. Whenever I used to ask a question he would say, "Now ask me again without whining." 20 years later, my voice instantly changes when I see his name on caller ID...LOL To be honest, I've never thought about peoples voices...I'll have to come back for those. -

Silver--This is really interesting. :) I haven't thought about what many people on her sound like, to be honest, except Mimi. To me her voice is always sweet and full of laughter.
Bronx--I'll give you a tip; I don't lecture. You can't teach writing by lecturing to students. :)

CreativeWoman said on Mar 13, 2007....
ed,
You are right about the Barefoot Contessa. My family tells me that they see me in her by the way she acts and looks. My hair is shorter and blonder than hers though. I've always been told I have a pleasant voice. I'm soft spoken and you would definitely tell I'm from the Midwest.
I have always imagined you having a very intellectual sounding voice. Perhaps something like George Stehpanopolis. (I'm not sure i spelled that right)

Zayda, I was way off about your appearance so I am going to guess that you have a soft spoken slightly higher pitched voice.
Ed, I still think you are really a news anchor/journalist in disguise so I will go along with CW and the george stephanopoulos voice. I think you speak clearly with perfect pronunciation.

lioneljay said on Mar 13, 2007....
As much as I pay attention to voices in face-to-face communications, I rarely put sound to posts that I read here or elsewhere (unless I know the person's voice, of course).
Some who read this may recall that I shared a small sample of my voice in a blog post several months ago. Anyone can do the same by joining and uploading a sound file of your voice here.
-
Zayda said on Mar 13, 2007....

I would prefer to not know in some ways but then IF I had the chance to meet a few people here I would do it... purely to see if I was close to the mark.
Cool post I am going to go away now and write my list of voices out for each person and see what it looks like. :-)

Zayda said on Mar 13, 2007....
Moms--Interesting. I am known for my penchant to walk into her shop, look at my hair stylist and say let's do something totally different and have her chop it all off. The last time I did that I went from middle of my back length hair to a pixie cut. It was shocking to most people who knew me, but I've had pixie cuts like that before in college. But right now, my hair is past my shoulders. And it's wavy/curly depending on the humidity and what i decide to do with it in the mornings. :D
I do have my ears pierced and my nose, but nothing else. And I only recently got my nose pierced about a year ago.
I don't do suits all that often to be honest, especially not during the spring semester and with the weather we've had this winter. -
MissMimi said on Mar 13, 2007....

Zayda sounds like a young sharon stone.... (don't be offended)
Silverwhisper sounds like David Niven, Vicarious sounds like Benitio Del Toro (sexiest man alive) and there is a drew barrimore in the room (ginger), then theres secret life who sounds to me like a young liza minelli and then theres alien (my green friend) who sounds like jack nicholson... YOUNG smooth rusky and kinda... very sexy.... then we have pickersplok who sounds like patsy out of ab fab and there is wombat who sounds like edwina out of ab fab.......mobil sounds like james dean and ooohhhh thats right JD sounds like john wayne.. (he hee hee) and then there is momsrock who sounds like blonde (you know the singer when she was hot), there is bronx who sounds like rocky! {{sheese its a compliment okay}} and then we have miss who really has a small voice, sweet and just so cute (like the movie babe)... I could go on but I am still compiling my list!

Lucytorial said on Mar 13, 2007....
Zayda I am sorry, southern drawl cool but you have an exact way of writing and it's quiet yet succinct?? does that help! oh and sharon stone is sexy in a way. The words people use are quite helpful in providing us all with a voice... I think this is where it comes from.
-
Zayda said on Mar 13, 2007....
Okay, what I sound like. A friend of mine says that there are moments when I am pure southern belle (I can after all turn spit into a 4 syllable word without blinking an eye.), but that usually comes out when I'm tired. Other times, he says my accent it much flatter, with what he associates as flattened vowel sounds from the Mid-west. Yet there are other times, I am pure Jersey girl, especially when I say words like talk, dog, or sure.
The chief problem with anyone placing my accent or the way I talk is that I pick up accents, dialects, and languages very easily because of the rather nomadic lifestyle I have lived. (And I tend to talk like the people I am around most often.) I began to learn to talk when we lived in Massachusetts but my language developed when we lived in Alaska, where the accent well is mixed, especially on a military base.
[blinks]
Lucy, I don't think I have ever had anyone call my writing succinct before. That's really interesting.
-
Lucytorial said on Mar 13, 2007....
Use of specific words to create emotion, reflection and deapth... that is what I consider succinct. You are good at it but then I don't see too much of you to say for sure this is just and only it! Intelligence shines I guess thats what I pick up on most with you. -

Ah, the cat's out of the bag. Actually, I never started out to be ambiguous. I decided to stay "undecided" though after someone (Gumpy, I think, or ALIENated) let loose a fusillade of really ugly sexist remarks in my direction. I figured I'd let him think that I was female. That way every shot I got in was also a shot in favor of feminism.But if you prefer, just think of me as Pat. That's it, just Pat. -

mousenphonic said on Mar 14, 2007....
I'm bad with voices, realy I am. It's much easier for me to imagine what somebody looks like and what type of personality they have than trying to imagine what they sound like but if I have to take a guess on some Sc's:
silver: I guess you have the male version voice of my gr 11 maths teacher. Crystalic almost hypnotysing.
ginger: I think has this sexy voice, coarse and teasing.
polar: I can kind of imagine the SA accent with a hint of british.
Mostly if I have to think about voices of people I mostly just read about, I imagine their voices being emotionless, like that funny guy in the back of the class that never means to be funny but just says things in a dull way that makes every word that escapes his mouth hillarious.
Jst me :)

This is interesting, I don't usually think about voices unless they are hard to understand. My voice is kind of nasally, I might sound kind of like Karen actually! But only when I am really excited about something. Usually very calm though.
I looked at Bloc's picture and thought he looked like some of the boys from where I grew up and thought he would talk like them but I wouldn't want to offend him by associating him with us hillbillies.

kruuyai said on Mar 14, 2007....
ditto on the yummies for bloc.... good looking and intelligent all in one... seriously, bloc, I always thought you were an older gentleman.
mom - I can see and hear you as brett butler (who I love, by the way)
ginger - i can hear you as Julia (Richard's girlfriend on Caroline in the City), but only because of the smoldering accent... personality wise, you're nothing like her.
beyondtheveil - an intellectual Johnny Cash
polarheart - a low, sultry, ultrafeminine voice like a former neighbor of mine who also sang the blues... a woman with a lot of soul
silverwhisper - a cross between Peter Lorre and Clark Kent, depending on the subject matter... his persona, therefore his voice... mirrors what he is talking about.
daily - I can hear with an All-American Sandra Bullock kind of voice
skald - I can hear her voice in the mid range, and I can hear the accent... sort of a slow and deliberate but gentle voice... can't think of any famous people to compare her with... she is a class act all on her own.

i'm quite flattered by a lot of the choices people are making for me and intrigued by the sandra bullock/MR thing--that's just freaky!

I imagine you have voice like the one you described for me.

lol... whenever I hear my voice in a recording it sounds way too high and thin for my liking. But I think it's getting deeper with age. -

GS, not Janice at all. If you've paid attention to the shows that are being shown on A&E now (first season still), the character that made me think of you was the woman mob boss in Italy whom Tony met when he went there on business. Her voice, though, is too high for my perception of you. I'm thinking more like Meg Ryan with an Italian lilt. -

Kruu........now that i have seen your face i think Kathleen Turner's voice is too deep for you....i think a Meryl Streep would do better .....
LJ......oh, thanks goodness...LOL.....
Btw, meawooo....that woman is a hot number, isn't she? I liked her a lot...and .....guess what? you are pretty quite close if you combines Meg Ryan's voice......pretty impressive, LJ.......*wink* .
But SW caught also the "urgency" in my voice......unless he is intending that he is picturing me talking superfast......LOL....which actually i tend to do when i am upset or i need to go to the point......:-)

ginger: that's a little more like it, but still not really on (as far as I can tell). I can't think of any actresses that sound the way I think I sound.
daily: I'm revising my answer for you.. The voice I'm really thinking of for you is Sally Field. Especially when you say, "LMAO" I can just hear that in her voice.

Don't MAKE me take my meds early and start typing!

I'm getting the largest charge out of this funny bunch of posts. I have no idea who I sound like...if you guys saw my picture on flickr.....what do you THINK I would sound like? -

"I always thought you were a woman with PMS."There you have it. Guys are just girls with PMS. :-) -
mom said on Mar 14, 2007....
LOL *hugs* so glad you are not the rude bitch I thought you were. ;) -
kelly said on Mar 15, 2007....
Apparently I am! Are you saying that a "woman" who speaks her mind is a rude bitch? I think you've got some 'splainin' to do here. :-) -
mom said on Mar 15, 2007....
Yeah that is what I am saying. I know from whence I speak.

MissU - I think you would have a very bubbly, happy voice - it goes with the image of you in my head! -

by the way, daily, do you have a Boston accent? -

Kruu. Thanks I want to sound just like that and I hope I do. Even though my singing voice is a hight soprano. -
Bronx said on Mar 15, 2007....
Zayda: that's very interesting. I lived in Arkansas for about five years of my life.
I guess that deliciously charming Fayetteville 'twang' is what I often imagine in your voice as I read you. -
dailyachesandpains said on Mar 15, 2007....
Kruu: Yes, I do, and it's not something I'm proud of! When I moved back home from AZ, I sounded "normal" to my friends. Had an accent that wasn't an accent like before I left. When I met my Husband, he said I had a 'twang' but I didn't, lol. I've been back in New England long enough to pick it back up again...sadly!

When I lived in the south I had a pretty strong southern accent.
Now I don't think I really have an accent but I could be wrong. Mostly
I'm just goofy and sarcastic..hahah...I have kind of a loud laugh....well I
don't hold back I guess you could say...I let it all out when I laugh. But I've
been told that I give good phone..... :-) which is SO funny to me. I've had
people say "wow who was that answering the phone.....I want to meet her"
to like my sons or my husband....and it was ME...hahahaha TOTALLY grossed
the boys out!

silver: Isn't everyone? :-) -
kruuyai said on Mar 16, 2007....
OK, everyone... I came across this old video of myself singing "Feelings" and just had to share it with you. This should put all the speculation about Kathleen Turner to rest!

Okay, so here goes my summary...
Silverwhisper - voices are very hard to imagine, as I'm a "picture" person. The only voice that I can imagine is Daily - I imagine her voice similar to that of my very best friend from school's voice.
Her name was Dale-Marie (and her nickname was Daley), and thus the connection. :-)
As for other voices, I'm afraid I can't imagine it really. Faces maybe - but voices are hard.

silverwhisper said on Mar 16, 2007....
kelly: one never does know. :D
danette: yeah, see...i'm not a picture person a lot of the time--there were a few blogs where people were wondering what everyone looked like, then bloc created one where he asked that people post pics. b/c i don't think in those terms, this seemed like a good idea. :>

Kruu, LMAO!! That is priceless. I'm so touched... LOL You have a lovely voice. Like an angel. -
Zayda said on Mar 16, 2007....
Bronx--I don't quite have the Fayetteville twang; my accent isn't quite that but close. :) -
Bronx said on Mar 17, 2007....
Zayda: Oh well. Anyway, I loved it there, as well as in Pine Bluff, Little Rock, and Fort Smith - mine's a well travelled bag. -
boyzmom said on Mar 17, 2007....
Kruu- that video was great, why were they booing at the end?
-
kruuyai said on Mar 18, 2007....
Mimi: glad you liked it. :)
boyzmom: I don't know why they were booing. Probably just to let us see Beaker overcome insurmountable difficulties and reign victorious in the end. :)

boyzmom said on Mar 19, 2007....
Kruu- Of course! -
danetteb said on Mar 25, 2007....
Its a great idea silver (sorry if I made it seem otherwise)...
I just lack this bit of imagination :P Funny, I haven't wondered what most of my online friends' voices sound like - and that got me thinking, and now I keep imagining. When I listen to the radio I try to connect it to a blogger I know. No luck for you yet, sorry - will let you know if I hear a resemblance :D

hi everybody! im new here at soulcast so i still am in the process of tuning in to the voices here and finding your respective "looks" based your writing. :) in the moment i'm just overwhelmed with this feeling of freedom that this site offers. i have tried blogging before and i'd say its never been this interactive! heres hoping to "meeting" most of the people here by way of your writing voices, but for now, i'm just gonna be switching to lurking mode, browsing your fabulous creations. :)

Annnnnnnnnnnnnnd, I missed this one too.
I love Abfab! I probably sound more like a combination of Saffy and Bubble,
without the English accent.

so that's what you sound like? you know, i wouldn't have guessed that!

You'll love this book then;
Something Rotten by Jasper Fforde
Thursday Next, Head of JurisFiction and ex-SpecOps agent, returns to her native Swindon accompanied by a child of two, a pair of dodos and Hamlet, who is on a fact-finding mission in the real world. Thursday has been despatched to capture escaped Fictioneer Yorrick Kaine but even so, now seems as good a time as any to retrieve her husband Landen from his state of eradication at the hands of the Chronoguard. It's not going to be easy. Thursday's former colleagues at the department of Literary Detectives want her to investigate a spate of cloned Shakespeares, the Goliath Corporation are planning to switch to a new Faith based corporate management system and the Neanderthals feel she might be the Chosen One who will lead them to genetic self-determination. With help from Hamlet, her uncle and time-travelling father, Thursday faces the toughest adventure of her career. Where is the missing President-for-life George Formby? Why is it imperative for the Swindon Mallets to win the World Croquet League final? And why is it so difficult to find reliable childcare?
