Women Take Back the Noise

Over the next few weeks I will be posting material and other infos about women from all around the whirrled, whose musics are featured in my soon-to-be-released cd compilation,

Women Take Back the Noise

In brief, the project began a little over a year ago and it's becoming quite an amusing little collection/obsession. Quite the vivid array of creativity and soundscapes represented here-- I speak of the sound that emanates specifically from womenkind, and to me, even though "we are all one" there is something uniquely different between women and men and how they create 'noise', how they listen to sound, record it, create with it, etc, and I felt the need to showcase this side of it somehow.

The show is about to begin, enjoy the ride...


FACTOID: The weight of a woman's heart is 10-15% less than that of man of the same bodyweight and height. The smaller size of the woman's heart stands for the smaller number of heartbeats. That is why the larger minute capacity is achieved through the higher frequency of contractions.

Nevertheless, studies have shown that the female blood-minute capacity is lower than that of men. There is an essential difference between the functional indices of the cardiovascular systems of men and women at a rest.

Research results show that these differences are most obviously manifested in the speed and weight loads when the woman's body reaction is expressed mainly through the pulse frequency, while men's contractions are slower but more powerful.

Similar differences are noticed in the recuperation period, especially if the loading implies higher strain for a longer time...
