KX100
Channel 4 Random Acts “KX100”
This visual short pays homage to a British cultural icon - the KX100 phone box - before its nationwide removal from the streets of the UK.
In this film, Poet James Massiah highlights the many strands of social interaction the KX100 has fostered over its 35 year existence, whilst taking a nostalgic stance on an object that is becoming more and more redundant in modern society.
