Spent some more time doing some of the ds106 visual assignments.  I was drawn to the Troll Quote assignment.  My old desktop background was a picture of Patrick Stewart that said “Use the Force, Harry”, with the quote attributed to Gandalf.  That was the first example I had ever seen and it kept me in stitches for far longer than it had any right to.  I resisted the urge to go the geek route and did this instead:

I really hope people get this, because having to explain it would jut ruin everything forever.

I also did the assignment for “an album cover” (which, thanks to an SNL Celebrity Jeopardy sketch, I keep calling “anal bum cover”, in my best Sean Connery).  The band name came from a random wikipedia entry, which turned out to be tonna perdix.  The album title came from the quote ”Let the fear of danger be a spur to prevent it; he that fears not, gives advantage to the danger.” ~Francis Quarles.  This too, having been randomly generated.  Then the picture (you guessed it, random)

Mix until blended and…

I added the jewel case for authenticity.  What kind of music would Tonna Perdix be?  Was their older stuff better?  I hear they really sold-out with “Gives Advantage to the Danger”.

Now I want to go watch some Christian Slater movies.  Pump Up the Volume, perhaps.
