For my DADA Montage I found a picture at the thrift store of a European mountain town from a calendar that had been framed. I then went through random magazines that I got from the thrift store and around my house and began cutting out pictures that were interesting, but really had nothing in common with one another. When it came time to paste them onto my background, I had fun trying to work with each cutout and make it fit within the whole and still have a sense of what it was on its own. The gondolas coming from the top corners and the train winding out of the mountains worked out especially well and ad to the strangeness of the piece.
