It's super-easy to learn, if you would like to try. I started by singing the vowel sounds (mostly ee and oo, but all of them work) to hear what the higher partials sounded like. Then, move your tongue along the roof of your mouth and hear how they change. To really get the partials to resonate, you have to sing with your sinuses open. To keep them open, I imagine singing with a really nasal accent. I imagine pushing my voice to the very tip of my nose. Once you can get that far, it's a matter of shaping your mouth, tongue, and throat to correspond to vowel noises.

These two sites were very helpful for me!
I tried to make them sound really authentic, with generic things like:
A friend will deliver good news in the form of a letter.
Now is the time to get started on the project you have put off.
You will enjoy doing something different this coming weekend.
but I also had general advice ones:
You deserve more credit than you think you do.
You are only responsible for your own happiness.
Believe in the power of society. It's slow, but effective.
and then a few were just plain weird:
They can't read your poker face.
Be kind to the bees, for they are the most diligent workers of all.
Give way to your worst impulse.
Overall, I think my favorite part was either the writing or distributing. I've been wanting to use the fortune cookie medium for something, and this came at the perfect time!
This is really, really cool. I love how realistic-looking the rocks are in the last photo.
It was so sweet of you to let the family have the castle. Well done!
Awesome! I love the hand-craftedness, I love the influence of a previous task, and I love that you used what appears to be a succulent.
First off, thank you for introducing me to Sleep Time. I am eager to try the app and see how it works. This is a super-cool completion! I look forward to an Android app, so that I may join the creative unconscious hivemind.
This is one of my favorite tasks, and I love that you took it on such a large scale.
Thanks everyone! I really loved this project. It put me in such a great mood to be doing things that I've only ever heard of other people doing.
