First, I want to say, that I am addicted to the internet. Over the Holiday break, I thought I was going to go crazy without instant access. Terrible, I know…
Secondly, this friendly competition is going around Facebook right now.
Here is how it works:
1 - Go to wikipedia and hit random. The first random wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.
2 - Go to quotationspage.com and hit random. The last four or five words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your ...first album.
3 - Go to flickr and click on “explore the last seven days”. Third picture no matter what it is, will be your album cover.
4 - Use photoshop or similar (picnik.com is a free online photo editor) to put it all together.
5 - Post it with this text in the "caption" and TAG the friends you want to join in.
WHAT FUN!!!
Then, I got to thinking. This semester I'm not going to be flexing my print design muscles as much. So, why not make this like a weekly blog post (without the tagging of friends part)?
I think it could be fun. As long as I remember to do it.
My goal is to do an album cover a week in
addition to any random blogging I may do.
We'll see how well this plays out.
