很久以前，曾經在介紹虛擬卡帶生成器時，提到「錄音卡帶這種東西大概快絕跡了」。
毫無疑問地，卡帶的確已經絕跡。
然而，類似這種曾經盛極一時的東西，想必許多人經年累月或許都囤積了不少。
如果，你還沒把長年囤積了不少的卡帶給扔掉，也許可以效法iRI5這位藝術家，把音樂卡帶直接形塑成歌手本人。
在Flickr上欣賞這個「Ghost in the Machine」系列作品時，雖然作者本人提到靈感來自哲學：
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.
不過，我還是忍不住聯想到攻殼機動隊Ghost in the Shell。
