Cassette Tape Skeletons by Brian Dettmer

A few weeks ago, I posted some ideas for recycling cassette tapes so when I saw these skeletons by Brian Dettmer, I just had to follow up and share!

What great inspiration for creative reuse — and the skeletons are a perfect kick-off to the month of October!

Those are incredibly awesome. WOW. (and how cool is it that he used Motley Crue's "Shout At The Devil" for the human skull?!)
Absolutely incredible.

I thought this was more useless crap to take up space and collect dust, then end up in a landfill. Then I saw that he used Motley Crue's "Shout At The Devil" for the human skull. Brilliant.

One more brilliant! Funny, how that word just popped into everyone's skull...and I wish I could read more of the tape cases...
