New fabric from recycled audio tape

"The multi-purpose textile, appropriately, has its own track. Draw a tape head from a revamped Walkman over its surface and you’ll hear a medley of sound Santoro recorded from musicians on subway platforms, conversations, and city streets. It's also amazingly durable, thanks to the tape, which is the thickest 100 percent polyester tape product on the market, and the best for recording. Applications range from upholstery, wallcovering, to drapery, in markets including hospitality, corporate, and residential, says Designtex."
