This morning I stumbled across the Ad Generator. A nice little tool developed as part of an MFA thesis by Alexis Lloyd.
The Ad generator basically randomly pairs words from big advertising campaigns with images from Flickr. Even though the phrases are cut up and randomized, I am sure you will recognize a few famous campaigns among them.
I loved this tool because it
- It is a creative way to procrastinate
- It’s a nice way of taking a break from writing and getting some different stimulation
- Believe it or not, I find it actually inspiring.
Here are my absolute favorite randomly generated ads by the Ad Generator.
