Embarking on an exploration of human voices, this abstract investigates their semiotic dimensions through the philosophical lenses of Gilles Deleuze, Karen Barad, Mladen Dolar, and Eero Tarasti. Tarasti's existential semiotics addresses the need to transcend dominant worldviews, emphasizing the desire for otherness and the transcendence of conventional identities. Complementing this, Dolar's psychoanalytic lens unveils the voice as a conduit of subjectivity, desire, and unconscious expression, drawing from Lacanian theory. Voice, as articulated by Tarasti and Dolar, embodies sense, intentionality, and transcendence, serving as the instrument through which humans reach out to the world.In parallel, insights from Michel Chion and Roland Barthes offer intriguing perspectives into the ineffable nature of the voice. Chion muses on the elusive quality of the voice, pondering its essence beyond tangible elements, while Barthes posits the human voice as perpetually escaping scientific classification, defying attempts to fully comprehend its essence. Moreover, Lawy's assertion that the voice transcends materiality, discourse, and performance adds another layer of complexity to its study, elucidating the multifaceted nature of auditory perception.In this way the voice acts as a natural-cultural phenomenon, still raising questions about its essence and impact. As voices transcend linguistic boundaries, questions arise about their acousmatic nature— what lies beyond the audible, tangible realm? The abstract prompts reflection on the multifaceted dimensions of voice, inviting inquiry into its essence, its role in shaping reality and its influence on human experience.
