I can’t remember where I came across this, but Flikr user IRI5 creates portraits of musicians using old cassette tapes. Check out the site for some amazing portraiture!

In this series I showcase a number of portraits of musicians made out of recycled cassette tape with original cassette. Also included are portraits made from old film and reels. The idea comes from a philosopher’s (Ryle) description of how your spirit lives in your body. I imagine we are all, like cassettes, thoughts wrapped up in awkward packaging.
