Old School Spam

[Instructions]

Open the first book you see in sight

     flip some pages eight times to the right

Find the first word that comes to sight

     that’s the word you’re going to write

Now open another book and follow the same steps

Open your computer and open up a browser

 search for the two words that you came across

        find the third result on the fourth page and that’s your page to claim

Write the url of the page down on a piece of paper and fly it as a paper airplane across the room.

[Artist’s Note]

This idea just came to me randomly when I was going through my spam section of my email. I realized that there’s just too many spam emails that have nothing to do with each other. I then realized that some of the spam messages are literally just random words put together.

This initial idea allowed for me to expand to this score that I had.

Hopefully this will be something of interest to you.
