The ad generator: advertising remixed 24 Jan 2007

Check out the ad generator - an experiment created by Alexis Lloyd as part of her MFA thesis in Design/Tech at Parsons (Requires Flash).

The ad generator remixes real corporate slogans to generate new taglines and then pairs them with related images from Flickr, thereby generating fake advertisements on the fly. According to Alexis, it's intended 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."
