The past is hard to get over, designer Stefano Pertegato is one who can’t let go with the creation of NVDRS Tape. Constructed in the format of a Cassette Tape, the NVRDS is actually a digital mp3 player. The player continues to follow the 45/60/90 minutes norm, holding 10/15/20 select songs in digital format; uploaded via USB. Charging the device requires some manpower by rotating the spools. Rotating the second hole of the tape charges the kinetic battery. An LED light indicates the power status: Green-full charge; Amber- Medium Charge; Red- will die out any moment. Between the two wheels is nestled a small display that only shows you the time elapsed for the song. Both the 90 and 60-minute versions are housed in recycled aluminum enclosures, however the 45-min one is constructed from Polypropylene.
