Your locked-up wheel produces no power, never lets loose from the banks where it's broken. The forest is slowly shifting again, sharp and stuttered, harsh transitions through thaws and freeze-overs. I'm running from the sun like I've been chased, to the brilliant, beautiful shadows that seem better for the cold casting. The part I play out here is insignificant, too small to be even considered an extra. I'm more like set dressing, one cloud passing that you only notice for the seconds it blocks the sun. Being invisible in nature always somehow makes me feel like belonging everywhere else. Finding places like these, the one human dot in a landscape of inhuman space. Lonely lives laced with intrusions on time, waiting for reclamation. I'll still be strong and steady when they fade for good.

With stuttering, viewers-turned-participants use their entire bodies to touch and trigger activation points laid out in a Mondrian-styled grid. Move quickly, and the piece will itself stutter in a barrage of audiovisual verbiage; move carefully, even cautiously – stutter with your body – and both meaning and bodies emerge.

Jenna is nearly seven years old, and exercised very frequently, but she always does the "stutter whine" when she sees us putting on our shoes to take her for a walk. Her entire body is vibrating with sheer energy and excitement, and that's why her whine "skips." Please take notice of how patient and quiet my Real Little Boy is, though.
Using data collected from the same brain as shown in the previous image, scientists plotted a subset of fibers--those that ended in a particular cross section of tissue--and followed their path throughout the brain. Now one can see some of the brain’s major anatomical structures. The treelike shape at lower left, for example, shows the longitudinal fibers of the cerebellum, a brain area that plays an important role in coordination and motor control, as well as in the integration of information from different senses.

Does reading poetry help stutterers? No, it doesn't really help stutters regain their fluency, but singing helps stutters a lot. Poetry is a great way to help overcome stuttering, but it's not a miracle cure. Everyone deals with stuttering differently. For some, it might mean learning strategies to speak more fluently and overcoming feelings of shame. For others, reading poetry is just a way to find relief from the constant pounding on their chest.

Singing helps stutterers
There are many ways that singing can help stutterers regain their fluency. Music is known to activate different parts of the brain, increasing blood flow and creating new connections across the brain's regions. Because music triggers emotions and memories, it is believed to help stutterers regain control of their expression. In fact, singing has been proven to help children with speech disfluency. This method is used by speech therapists in many countries, including the United States.
One example of someone who has overcome his or her stuttering is the legendary singer and songwriter, Mel Tillis. A country music hall of fame, Tillis turned his chronic stutter into a creative outlet and developed a huge following as a friendly folksy performer. Tillis passed away on Nov. 19, 2014, in Ocala, Fla. In fact, the connection between music and speech goes back hundreds of years.
since childhood i've stuttered and i've created several images along this theme.. this is one of them.
Buzz did fast stutter flapping towards the roof of Rindge Towers. I thought he might be harassing a Peregrine, but none was there. He was just sailing on hormones. He landed on the fence on SW Rindge 3, territory owned by the Peregrines. He was exultant sitting atop the tallest perch in his territory; a perch usually occupied by Peregrines who would not tolerate his presence near their wintering roost.

(From Cornell's All About Birds):
"The dapper Spotted Sandpiper makes a great ambassador for the notoriously difficult-to-identify shorebirds. They occur all across North America, they are distinctive in both looks and actions, and they're handsome. They also have intriguing social lives in which females take the lead and males raise the young. With their richly spotted breeding plumage, teetering gait, stuttering wingbeats, and showy courtship dances, this bird is among the most notable and memorable shorebirds in North America.
Spotted Sandpipers are the most widespread sandpiper in North America, and they are common near most kinds of freshwater, including rivers and streams, as well as near the sea coast. Their range includes water bodies in otherwise arid parts of the continent, and it extends into the mountains, where they may occur upwards of 14,000 feet above sea level. Breeding territories generally need to have a shoreline, a semiopen area where the nest will be, and patches of dense vegetation for sheltering the chicks. Spotted Sandpipers spend the winter along the coasts of North America or on beaches, mangroves, rainforest, and cloud forest up to 6,000 feet elevation in Central and South America.
Cool Facts
• The Spotted Sandpiper is the most widespread breeding sandpiper in North America.
• Female Spotted Sandpipers sometimes practice an unusual breeding strategy called polyandry, where a female mates with up to four males, each of which then cares for a clutch of eggs. One female in Minnesota laid five clutches for three males in a month and a half. This odd arrangement does not happen everywhere and often they are monogamous, with the female pitching in to help a little.
• The female Spotted Sandpiper is the one who establishes and defends the territory. She arrives at the breeding grounds earlier than the male. In other species of migratory birds, where the male establishes the territory, he arrives earlier.
• The male takes the primary role in parental care, incubating the eggs and taking care of the young. One female may lay eggs for up to four different males at a time.
• Despite the gender roles, male Spotted Sandpipers have 10 times the testosterone that females have. However, that’s only in absolute terms. During the breeding season, females see a sevenfold increase in their testosterone levels, perhaps accounting for their aggression and the overall role reversal between male and female.
• The female may store sperm for up to one month. The eggs she lays for one male may be fathered by a different male in a previous mating.
• Its characteristic teetering motion has earned the Spotted Sandpiper many nicknames. Among them are teeter-peep, teeter-bob, jerk or perk bird, teeter-snipe, and tip-tail.
• The function of the teetering motion typical of this species has not been determined. Chicks teeter nearly as soon as they hatch from the egg. The teetering gets faster when the bird is nervous, but stops when the bird is alarmed, aggressive, or courting."
Hanging out with my main man Charles. Charles and I share similar speech impediments, mild stammers. After basketball games we have been going over speech techniques that may help him to increase speech fluency

I stuttered a little today getting started because my brain immediately went to "ring". Then I decided to work on my neglected areas. I haven't done a link bracelet so I started simple.
ideas went from collar bone to throat to voice box to vocal cords. I actually watched a video of someone's vocal cords while they were singing
