About

the sonic fabric handbags are a limited-edition project made in collaboration with nyc designer julio cesar. sonic fabric is woven from 50% recorded audio cassette tape and 50% colored thread the fabric is actually audible if you run a tape head over it! (if you’d like a demo, please visit my youtube channel at alyceobvious.

the idea behind the clutch is that the user becomes a beacon for other-dimensional, intangible, subtle forces of good…much in the manner of a superhero. only this part of the superhero garb can be worn on the outside without detection!

the sound collages recorded onto the tape for this batch of bags comes from my cd between stations, and is based on looped and layered samples collected on and under the streets of nyc.

the clutch is 9" wide by 9" tall w handle.
blue sonic fabric with purple raw silk lining.
