Things To Do On The Internet Instead of Doing Work #2: Broken Picture Telephone

How does one go from ‘The Alphabet’ to a ‘Stinky Farting Dog’ I hear you ask. Why, Broken Picture Telephone of course. A fusion of Chinese Whispers (or as those crazy Yanks call it – Broken Telephone, hence the name) and Pictionary. Hilarity ensues.

Basically, someone posts a description, the next person draws it, the next person describes said drawing and then the next person draws that, so on and so forth. I’m sure you don’t need anymore recursion. Here’s a link to the last game I completed. Have fun.

First up then is ToneMatrix, some sort of awesome 16 step sequencer or something. I’ve no idea what that means, but it’s a pretty awesome distraction if you’re musically gifted. Hell, you can even copy and paste your creations for sharing purposes.

Here’s one to start you off (not made by me): 0,1056,0,640,0,256,0,1088,0,32,0,128,64,16,8,36

Have fun.

Update: Okay, here’s one I made earlier. You’ll agree it’s the most awesome thing you’ve ever heard. I’ll sell you the ringtone version, only £2.99*.
