Wild Associations

Label: Brainstorming. 

Use Wild Associations to create new ideas and concepts. You can create new ideas related to a specific problem, or set a scope for generating ideas.

Steps:

STEP 1

Brainstorm using a card deck

  1. Open the “Wild Associations Card Deck”. Drag 1 – 5 random cards to the board.
  2. Find creative ways to connect the problem to the concepts on the cards you chose in the previous step. Write down your ideas, no matter how bizarre the connections. Come up with as many ideas as you can and add them as notes to the board.

 

STEP 2

Discuss and evaluate key ideas

Discuss solutions/ideas outlined on the board. Do any solutions make sense? Are any of the ideas crazy enough to work?
