Tapes

Description

灵感来源于起司面包机的磁带播放器,特点是可以插入两张磁带,当其中一张磁带播放完后,会自动跳到下一张。磁带的设计则是采用起司面包的造型,这张塑造很简单,画法很随意,主要以设计为主。
Inspired by the cassette player of a cheese bread machine, it features the ability to insert two tapes. When one tape finishes playing, it automatically switches to the next one. The design of the tapes adopts the shape of a cheese bread, and the overall sculpture is simple with a casual drawing style, placing a strong emphasis on the design aspect.

Is... is that a toaster? One that plays cassette tapes? Woah.

I love all of this, but especially the wires hanging around in the back. More accurate.

The cassettes kind of look like fallout holotapes.

Why invoke cheese when it's clearly bread slices in a toaster?

I think this is the reference:

But I've never seen one in real life.
