Tapebook is an audio installation for cassette player. The information the tapes reproduce was originally displayed on the graphical user interface (GUI) of Facebook profiles of artists, philosophers and theoreticians of art and media.

The entire project is an exercise in media archaeology and works on the conversion of information onto audio tapes: the “Tapebooks”. The installation employs a reversion process: the information organized in the rhizomatic structure of the web hypertext is converted into a linear sequence of sound.
