An artist is bringing obsolete floppy disks and videotapes into the 21st Century - by transforming them into shimmering portraits.

Nicholas Gentry encourages people on social media to send him their old tech which he turns into artwork, filled with personal memories from across the globe. The 38-year-old uses the outdated storage devices to express the feeling of time passing through his portraits displayed at the Human Connection exhibition at London's Opera Gallery.
