Creativity Aids Courtesy of Eno and Schmidt
When ambient music godfather Brian Eno finds himself
creatively
stuck, he reaches for an Oblique Strategy card. Each card
contains advice
meant to jar the artistic soul out of stagnation and back into the
stream
of genius. ("Question the heroic
approach" is a personal favorite.) Eno and painter Peter Schmidt
developed the first series of Oblique Strategies in 1975. Now the
cards are
available as downloads, and one can just click a button to "pick"
a random
card. Commit to following these strategies, and watch oblique
confidence
bloom.
