@Alexandra: thank you for your reply, interesting insight regarding the %u2018watchers%u2019 as repressive figures for creativity. Also, I have always seen moderators listing ideas and creating %u2018categories%u2019 to classify these ideas. I guess this is terribly wrong. I remember having a lecturer writing on two sides of the whiteboard to make distinctions between types of ideas. I would be more specific but I don%u2019t quite remember the topic.
@Chauncey: Thank you for the invaluable book and papers references and for being so detailed on the edition. Also, invaluable insights on the main concepts of brainstorming. Regarding the UPA talk, I %u2018ll try to dig deeper on setting the ground rules (you set rules? I guess you are referring to the no %u2018war stories%u2019 type of rule) and addressing violations. Also, the concept of understanding the culture, I guess is fundamental. I%u2019ll read the material and get back to you :) @Gayle: Thank you for all the references, and for the encouragement. The idea of understanding brainstorming comes from some usability work I do. I thought, if to get something right I have to ask other people, maybe to came up with new ideas I need a bit of fresh air for my brainstorming sessions! So, I thought I might need an outsider to brainstorm with me or different people in the room or some rules %u2026and so on. I%u2019ll let you know what happens. Very good discussion, I%u2019ll also follow the new %u2018solo ideation%u2019 thread. Thank You, Alfonso . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
