Type with Tape

I've been looking at music and mixtapes over the last few days, i truely miss the fact we don't have tapes anymore, especially mixtapes. I love the idea that someone would sit for hours with a radio and record a tape, especially in the romantic sense when it would have been made as a present. It's not the same now with CD's and downloads, there isn't nearly as much meaning in it.

Anyways, i stupidly decided to try and 'write' with the tape from a cassette, it was very fiddly and difficult to manipulate clear letter shapes and so it didn't work as well as i'd hoped but at least i gave it a go!







I think if i would have done it on a more interesting background it may have worked better, i might come back to this idea later on.
