Jennifer Cantwell found that cassette tape can be successfully crocheted, and so turned Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band into a doily. What album do you think would make good doily fodder?

The Nostalgic Chair by OOO My Design pays homage to great old music by making cassette tapes useful again. It comes with a Walkman attached and appears to be assembled with just zip ties.

It’s Back to School time – and what better way to store all those new pencils and pens you got than with this: Pocket Jams, a zipper pouch made to look like cassette tape.

When cassette tapes break down, usually they get thrown in the trash. But not for flickr artist iri5. Using discarded cassette tapes, iri5 turns them into works of art in a series called, "Ghost in the Machine," portraying various influential musicians such as Jimi Hendrix (pictured), Ian Brown, and Jim Morrison.

I am an artist who specializes in using non traditional media… old books, cassettes, playing cards, magazines, credit cards… whatever I can find. It feels great to work with strange, older materials. Things that have a mind of their own. Most everything I use has been thrown away or donated at some point. Past its prime, like some of the finest things in the world.
