I remember seeing this forum game years ago where you’d get some a band name from the title of a Wikipedia article, an album title from the last few words from a random quote on a quotes website, and an album coverfrom the popular images on an image hosting site. You’d put them all together to get a randomly-generated album. While flipping through the Assignment Bank, I spotted a version of this using Wikipedia, Quotations Page, and Flickr. I decided to click the links and see what I’d get:

• From Wikipedia, I got the page for the year 112, aptly titled “112”. Not exactly the most unique band name, but I kind of like it.
• From Quotations Page, I got the following quote, which I took everything after the comma from to use as the album name:

Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man’s character, give him power.
– Abraham Lincoln (1809 – 1865)

• And from Flickr, I got this photo:

I threw them all together using Inkscape to get this cool album cover:

I think it actually turned out pretty well! To go a little farther, I decided to use the random quotes from Quotations Page to get me a list of songs that’d be on this album:

1. Give Him Power
2. Frankenstein Logic
3. Who You Care About
4. Called a Scholar
5. All through Me
6. Could Anything Be More Fun?
7. Ignorant of Everything
8. Wheel of Chance
9. Lone Ranger
10. Do It for You

Tools used:

• Inkscape, of course
