slow emergency siren, ongoing: Accessing Handsworth Songs edited by Sarah Hayden with contributions from Clive Nwonka, Elaine Lillian Joseph, Sarah Hayden, Care-fuffle Collective

A unique limited edition accessible publication documenting a project to make Black Audio Film Collective’s seminal 1986 film Handsworth Songs more, and differently, accessible. Designed by Daly & Lyon it presents a new commissioned annotated audio description script from Elaine Lillian Joseph and new creative captions commissioned from the Care-fuffle Working Group alongside new essays by Clive Nwonka and Sarah Hayden. The publication was produced in collaboration with Voices in the Gallery and with the support and advice of the UK Association for Accessible Formats and financial support from AHRC. The publication is also available in website form designed by An Endless Supply at slowemergencysiren.org.uk

All proceeds from the sale of the book will go directly to making more works in the LUX collection accessible.
