Explain Everything: Fake Album Covers at #ettipad

11/17/2015

0 Comments

 
Attendees of my session at the EdTechTeachers iPad Summit Boston 2015 were introduced to the Fake Album Covers activity and challenged to create their own in Explain Everything (or any other app of their choice). Here are the basic rules as quoted from Reddit:
  1. Go to Wikipedia and click "Random Article"; the title of that article is your band name.
  2. Go to Wikiquote and click "Random Article"; pick any part of the last quote as your album title.
  3. Go to Flickr's "Last 7 Days" page. The 5th image is your album art.
  4. Compile an album cover using all the selected information with the image processor of your choice. (Note: use a fairly square canvas - album covers are usually square)
Due to inconsistent WiFi, I had to improvise some of the rules in order to help people get their content. So for the band name, those who couldn't get online were asked to go to their email. The subject line of the 3rd message in their inbox was their band name. For the album title, it was the last 5 words of the last text message in their messages application. For the album art, it was the 5th photo in their camera roll. Below are some of the creations that were made. Nice work! And here is the video I showed in the beginning (Mason's animation).
