Flash Forward is a show about possible (and not so possible) future scenarios. What would the warranty on a sex robot look like? How would diplomacy work if we couldn’t lie? Could there ever be a fecal transplant black market? (Complicated, it wouldn’t, and yes, respectively, in case you’re curious.) Hosted and produced by award winning science journalist Rose Eveleth, each episode combines audio drama and journalism to go deep on potential tomorrows, and uncovers what those futures might re ...

Nicole R. Holliday https://nicolerholliday.wordpress.com and Paul Reed http://mountainmanlinguistics.blogspot.com The opening/closing song: Clear Blue Sky recorded by Chatham County Line and available in full from the free music archive and used here under a Creative Commons license. Nicole and Paul are sociolinguists whose apparently disparate research programs find surprising overlap in questions of how social identity is created and perceived by means of intonation. We talk to them about themselves, their research, and the course they will be teaching at next summer’s Linguistic Institute. Purnell, Idsardi, and Baugh (1999): http://jls.sagepub.com/content/18/1/10.abstract Queen (2012): https://muse.jhu.edu/article/492549/summary Course Description: Intonational variation is one of the least well-understood areas of linguistics, especially in American English. This is especially a challenge due to research in recent years that has described the importance of intonational phenomena for speakers and listeners in presenting and interpreting social-indexical information. This research has also shown that intonation carries a range of social meanings that can be controlled and manipulated by speakers. Thus, we begin with the premise that speakers’ use of pitch, prosody, and voice quality variables is a robust area to investigate the intersection of language, identity, and culture. The purpose of this course is to provide training in intonational analysis that centers on how identity is manifested in intonation. We concentrate on the application of intonational methods on describing how speakers communicate various aspects of personal identity. These fundamental aspects range from the community-level, such as region and race/ethnicity, to the more individual-level, such as gender and sexuality. We will unpack the ideological processes that provide language users a means to establish the indexical links of intonational forms to these various facets of their identity. Through hands-on practice, learners will engage with how speakers use both the phonetics and phonology of intonation to provide information about who they are, as well as how listeners may interpret this information. Additionally, learners will be introduced to the basics and best practices of intonational research – from recording to transcription to phonetic analysis. For the final project, students will propose and outline a topic for intonational analysis based on their own research interests. For scholars and students, having a better understanding of how intonation works in sociolinguistic variation will enhance the questions that they are able to ask of various data sets that they may encounter in their own research.
