Did you know that looking at random images can help people overcome a creative slump? Every creative encounters blocks once in a while when they find themselves staring at a blank page, unsure on where to start or lacking inspiration. One of the easiest ways to kickstart our brain is to make use of a random picture—it can encourage creative thinking and help solve problems by forcing unexpected connections. Sometimes a brilliant idea is floating around somewhere and pops into our heads when we least expect it. By scrolling through random pictures, we simply increase our chances of catching one.
For those who might be stuck in a creative rut or are just looking for pure entertainment, we have a list of random pictures shared by the RARE Facebook page. Scroll down to find them, and don’t forget to upvote the ones that got your creative juices flowing (or those that you found simply amusing).
While you're at it, make sure to check out a conversation with fine artist Rachel Perls, who kindly agreed to tell us how she gets inspired by randomness.
Her last piece of advice for anyone lacking inspiration is to just get out and go explore. "Get off the computer. Go outside and take yourself somewhere new. Look around as though you were a tourist absorbing your surroundings for the first time. Whether breathing in the smell of a flower, feeling the soft fur of your dog, or listening to the sound of nature, these tactile experiences are often all it takes to wake you up."
