about

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.
