iRI5 creates portraits of music legends made from recycled cassette tape. As she states "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."

  1. I love the last line describing the work, humans as "thoughts wrapped up in awkward packaging." We're so much...more beneath our inanities and our human fallibility.

    Bob Dylan's is quite beautiful. The hair!=love.
