Mix Tape

An exhibition of accessible audio tape.

Mix Tape provides its visitors with tactile playback of a sculptural mass of audiotape attached to helium balloons. These balloons, with tape tied to each like a ribbon are filled with helium and released into the ceiling, leaving the tape to unspool as their cassette anchors them to the floor. This forest of exposed audio-tape then provides the raw material for an interactive mash up as participants run the magnetic strips across a series of exposed playback heads.
