The Ad Generator
This is a mash/remix of the original http://www.theadgenerator.org work of
Alexis Lloyd
where she says -
"The Ad Generator is a generative artwork that explores how advertising uses and manipulates language. Words and semantic structures from real corporate slogans are remixed and randomized to generate invented slogans. These slogans are then paired with related images from Flickr, thereby generating fake advertisements on the fly. By remixing corporate slogans, I intend to show how the language of advertising is both deeply meaningful, in that it represents real cultural values and desires, and yet utterly meaningless in that these ideas have no relationship to the products being sold. In using the Flickr images, the piece explores the relationship between language and image, and how meaning is constructed by the juxtaposition of the two."
The ad generator was created by
Alexis Lloyd
as a component of an MFA thesis project in the Design and Technology department at Parsons The
New School for Design

Good concept.Although the word play is interesting, the generic images bore me (the ones on your flash website are better). the pop music totally distracts and destroys the effect had to turn it off. Something more ambient, which would allow thoughts to flow more with the words might work better. Sounds abstract quality would allow the wordplay to be more effective and work for a larger more varied audience The unchanging editing pace causes one to tune out after for or five slides.

I agree with artpsycho. The music its kind of distractive. It does not give you the right time to process the message and the image, to accomplish the understanding you want people to have.
