OBJECT “AAAH”: THE INVENTION OF THE OPERATIC VOICE, Visiting Speaker
MANYA STEINKOLER

It is not by chance that the operatic voice was a Renaissance invention, historically close to that of perspective, i.e. represented space. Singing, like painting, was formalized, “naturalized” along definite principles—principles of relevance to Lacan’s object a and his later work on the infinite line.
