Albums Without Sound

A series of fictitious album covers. Updated daily.

This is a blog documenting a yearlong project covering two of my favorite obsessions: music and graphic design. I will be creating a new album cover each day using random entries from Wikipedia, QuotationsPage, and Flickr. I originally encountered this system on Facebook. Here’s how it works:

1) Go to wikipedia and select “Random article”. This article gives you the name of the band.

2) Go to quotationspage.com and click on “Random Quotes”. The first or last four or five words of the very last quote on the page is the title of your album.

3) Go to flickr and click on “Explore the last seven days”. The third picture-- no matter what it is-- will be the album cover. (Note: Starting with Album 028, I decided to use only images with a Creative Commons Attribution or Attribution/Non-Commercial license.)
