Track
info - all tracks recorded by Felicity Ford on Edirol R-09 using
inbuilt mic
Sources: home firework displays, kids and stones and a river near Dent
in the lake district in the UK, exploding candy, popcorn, fizzy water,
champagne, the waterfall in Clovelly in the UK, the volcanic ground at
Solfatara in Italy, a bonfire in East Sussex in the UK, rain on the
tent whilst camping along the West Highland Way in Scotland and a
fizzing hangover tablet.
Other writings about radio and my work - Felicity Ford enjoys
experimenting with the entire format and context of the radio show as a
destination for her projects. She has been a sporadic contributor to
Framework since 2005 when she stumbled across the show on Resonance FM
and promptly recorded a Framework intro in the bath. Since this
auspicious beginning, she has gone on to create radio shows of her own
on themes as divergent as the design of mobility aids, (The Missability
Radio Show) fantastical representations of ordinary reality, (The
Fantastical Reality Radio Show in association with Mundane
Appreciation) and the domestic soundscape (The Domestic Soundscape Cut
and Splice podcast series.) Felicity Ford also creates radio features
for The Hub on BBC Oxford. Linking these divergent projects is an
ongoing fascination with unspectacular reality, a feminist
preoccupation with domestic space and the gendering of various crafts
and materials, and a deep appreciation for both the online and offline
communities that surround podcasts and radio shows.
In the final year of her PhD looking at presenting everyday sounds to
audiences and the domestic soundscape, Felicity Ford is hoping to
explore instruction scores, sound-walks, text-based projects and
performance. She is currently collecting sounds for a rendition of
Alvin Lucier's Gentle Fire, developing a sound-based Zine entitled
Play, and walking along the road she most regularly drives along, in
order to experience its local and minute sounds from outside of her car.
Celebrations has been specially collated for [framework250] from
Felicity Ford's ongoing collection of sounds that are caused by, or
sound like, explosions and fireworks.

many hands, no eyes 12:44
photos: laura elcere
in early 2008 latvian artist maksims šenteļevs and i led a workshop in
tartu, estonia entitled sound as space / sound as language. our
activities included intense acoustic explorations of our shared space,
in this instance tartu's genialistide klubi, using found objects and
elements of the space itself, and a blind soundwalk, in which
participants were led individually with closed eyes through an extended
many-handed soundscape inhabiting the entire building. this
composition has been created from recordings made of our collective
activities. many thanks go to all the soundmakers: siim
angerpikk, teresa heinonen, mari jõgiste, aleksei kasnel, karl
laanekask, kaj lahtinen, triinu lille, diana lohmus, eija mustonen,
laura paju, tuukka seppala, anni terava, sven vabar, kristel vali,
aleksei zaitsev, kaspars kalniņš, laura elcere, and maksims šenteļevs.
participant sven vabar had this to say about the experience:
members of our group
reminded
me of some children who have come home with some weird creatures, like
kittens or toads or butterflies or huge beetles or midges. and they are
not sure whether their mom will be happy about those creatures or not.
but it was nice to see how our members after a short while set all
their creatures free in the big house where the workshop was held. the
house became full of small bold creatures whose names nobody
knew. and it seemed to me to happen that the people who brought
along all those strange creatures vanished, became unnoticeable or like
shadows compared to those sonic creatures, who became much more real.

victor's lament 04:16
Victor’s
Lament is a monumental
steel and cable sculpture by Mark di Suvero on the Muhlenberg College
campus. In heavy winds the suspended I-beams swing back and forth
sending vibrations through the solid steel structure and its steel
cables. I often tried to record this “lament”, but was only
successful when I attached piezo discs to both the metal I-beams and
the steel cables. The recording was made with homemade piezo contact
mics, DIY buffer boxes, and an Olympus LS-10 on a freezing cold day
in Pennsylvania.

as
a field recordist not only do you discover fascinating sounds, but you
are also regularly given instances of how you, and what you are doing,
are regarded by others. it is very interesting how this differs from
place to place. currently security paranoia is a major issue; certain
countries will allow recordings that in others would result in arrest
or searches under anti terrorism laws (the latter has happened to me
several times in the UK).
the Czech Republic is a joy in this respect. these recording are
contact mic recordings of rails as trains run at speed over them. i was
completely undisturbed while making them. people in Prague often walk
beside tracks and cross them at any point if need be. a railway
employee even suggested that we go inside the tunnel in full view of
the main station to record there. it sounded great.
1)
rail
contact hoverfly - whilst recording the internal sound of a rail track
with a contact microphone a hoverfly chose to use the mic as a display
platform. It's buzzing is a truly bizarre combination with the rail
hums.
2)
rail
contact trains - the internal sound of a rail track as two train pass
by. the first is actually on the adjacent track so is transfered sound
from 10metres away. the second is on the same track that the mic is
attached to.
