CD cover meme
For my birthday today (yeah, 43, who’da thunk it) my brother emailed me the CD cover meme. Being a bit of a music fan I like this meme very much. The idea is that by following 3 simple rules you generate your own CD album cover via the synchronicity of random selection, or something like that. The rules are:
1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
The first article title on the page is the name of your band.
2. http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
The last four words of the very last quote is the title of your album.
3. http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days/
The third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.
Now combine these elements in your favourite image editing package and you have your CD cover. There’s even a Flickr group for other people’s CD covers. Some are very good indeed.
Mine had a kind of resonance on this my birthday.

Le premier album des Florida Oaks…
Ne cherchez pas cet album dans les bacs des disquaires… car il n’existe pas.
Dommage, j’aurais bien vu les Florida Oaks comme un chaînon entre Oasis et Rage Against The Machine
L’album tout comme l’artiste sont totalement fictifs…….
