The category of recycling garbage into art just got a little bigger with this cassette tape lighting.
If you still happen to have a box or two full of old sorry-sounding cassette tapes you may be happy to see that they can be made into some pretty trendy looking lights. Maybe not by you but, the Transparent House folks have made these particularly sharp lights from just that - old cassette and answering machine tapes. The actually lighting function is done with low temperature neon bulbs, so there is no fear of melting.
These lights look so cool I may just head off to the basement to see what I can find!
