found tape
installation
The found tape project extracts image and sound from found video and audio magnetic tape fragments. Gathered from roadsides between 1992 and 1997, the discarded tapes, tangled, weathered, ground into asphalt obsoletion, are a medium in its last days. The mixed media installation includes: audio and VHS tape, cassette players, VHS stills, Polaroid 669 film, glass, asphalt paper, newspaper, oil pigment, and shellac.
