Lastly,  if you search these words    BRIAN ENO  OBLIQUE STRATEGIES   at www.google.com

They'll lead you to a  website that gives you the ability to print out a series of cards that you can

print out called OBLIQUE STRATEGY CARDS.   Invented by the amazing multi-media artist, producer, BRIAN ENO,

their whole purpose is to stimulate creativity when you are on the horns of a dilemma or

just not feeling like you are creating interesting choices.   You shuffle the deck,  pick a card and force yourself

to do whatever the card does.      This is a brilliant strategy for stimulating new creativity when you are stuck.

Or, if you're a Mac user, you can download the dashboard widget (with the first 4 versions) at:
