Via David Janes, here’s a little Dada album cover exercise. You can come up with an album cover for a hypothetical band by doing the following:
- Use the random Wikipedia article feature — the title of the article that appears is the name of the band.
- The name of the album is the last four words of the last quote on the random quotes page at Quotations.com.
- For the cover art, use the third image that appears when you visit Flickr’s interesting photos for the last 7 days.
Here’s what I got: the Wikipedia entry for “hematoma block”, the quote “It is hard work, but there is happiness in it.” by the creators of the game Animal Crossing: Wild World and this photo by Emmanuel Smague. Based on these results, I made this album cover:
Look out, Nine Inch Nails, I just out-moped you!

Great game! I created “Time to Ask Questions” by Roman Legion.
Okay, mine’s posted and it looks GREAT!
i have a scary feeling you might get included in the arguments over fair use of the photos on Flickr.
