Cassette Tape Art By Benoit Jammes

So I'm a 33 year old graphic designer, and I live in Paris, France
This work on cassette tapes is entirely handmade, with a bit of work but so nostalgia... It so happened that I found a bunch of old cassettes at home; seeing them brought me back, in thought, to an earlier time, the 80s, and to me as a kid. In any case, I could not play them any more so resurrecting them sounded like a good idea...it was sound, it became visual! And I am pretty sure they are more happy now than in a shoebox :-)
I think people from my generation relate to this work because many enjoy the funny side of it, the references. They are happy to see that these old cassette tapes managed to start a new life!

Signed and numbered prints are available for sale.

Cat Bags By Pico

These cat hand bags are painstakingly crafted by Pico, a Japanese housewife who loves cats. The difficulty in making these bags means that they often aren’t available, and when they are, they’re only sold on Yahoo! Auction Japan. How much do bags like these go for? The three-color cat below ended up selling for about 700 USD!

A Ukrainian girl plays with balloons with the colours of her country's flag aboard the Corsica Linea ferry “Mediterranee” in Marseille, southern France, on April 26, 2022. Anna and her children enjoy the sun on the deck of a ferry moored in Marseille: they are not vacationers but Ukrainian refugees who, on this boat, have finally found safety, “like in a village”, with 700 others compatriots. The “Mediterranean” usually serves Algeria, for the Corsica Linea. But it is now docked, at the Joliette ferry terminal in Marseille, with its unusual passengers. (Photo by Nicolas Tucat/AFP Photo)

Afghan dogs fight during the weekly dog fight in Kabul, Afghanistan, 17 February 2017. Under the Taliban dog fighting was forbidden, but since their fall it has become a major source of entertainment for hundreds of Afghans, where bets can amount to thousands of dollars and the dogs, which must be over one year old, are well-cared for by their owners and fed milk, butter and meat.
