Game: Create an album
« on: June 08, 2016, 07:33:11 AM »
1. Go to Wikipedia and click 'Random article' - that is your band name.

2. Go to Wikiquote and click 'Random page' and pick a quote, the last 3-5 words are your album title.

3. Go to Flickr's 'Last 7 days' page, the 5th image is your album art image.

4. Compile the album image with the artist name and album title on the image editor of your choice.

Here's mine:

Funny idea, my didn't turn out that great though.

Sounds like some super technical but still atmospheric instrumental prog band.

Great idea for a game indeed. I've got a minimalistic singer-songwriter folk album.



I wish I had a better album name. I had to choose from those:

"objects of knowledge and demonstration"
"nothing but sophistry and illusion"
"not produce one intelligent man"
"in the mode of participation"
"literary circles as everywhere else"
"the elect to the masses"
"the limits of this approach"
"of “what for?” is “more.”"
"seen to be not enough"
"any other criterion than efficiency"
"a quality all its own"

:facepalm:

And to think the image and the band name were a great fit. But hey, considering that when I tried to do another random page thing on Wikiquote I've got a Tarzan page, I think that could've been worse.

Did a bit of editing, but I think it looks nice for a post-black metal cover or something similar :P

Probably a post-metal album, or some post-rock with harsh noise, dunno.

"On his instrument" is such a great name for an album. It is as if Joe Satriani's next album was called "playing guitar".
