CHANCE RADIO

You'll need:

  • a radio
  • 30 free minutes
  • recording device
  • computer with QuickTime player and Jing
  • a deck of cards

Steps:

1. Choose a radio station, any radio station.
2. Over the course of 30 minutes, every 3 minutes record whatever is playing
    for 10 seconds. 
    (you should end up with 11 recordings, 1 minute and 50 seconds in all
     [if you accidentally record a second or two longer, that's fine])
3. Put the recordings on a computer and use QuickTime (or the likes)
    to compile them.
4. Grab Ace (being 1) through Jack (being 11) from a deck of cards.
    Shuffle them. Lay them out, side by side, in front of you.
    Use that to decide which order to put the recordings in.
5. Use Jing (or the likes...) to record. 
6. Compose a song!
