The Domestic Soundscape making, listening, thinkingfelicityford@outlook.com
Shattering crockery…
Porcelain surfaces CRASH clink…
A violent, percussive, short, staccato BURST.
A single, radiating, large soundwave.
I remember this sound very well; it was when Joey the cat was investigating the shelves in the kitchen and he knocked over a Toby Jug that had belonged to Mark’s Grandmother. It was in so many tiny little pieces that I knew at once it was beyond repair and the sound was very swift and very violent and made me run into the room to see what had caused it. I think Joey scared himself!
