I did some graphic recording this Saturday at The Product Summit, here in San Francisco. At the lunch break, I tweeted the completed visual from the morning. As you can see from the screenshot above, live graphic recording greatly increases engagement on social media, as well as during the event!

For some quick and easy visual thinking practice simply choose a letter and see how many different ways you can make that letter in 2 minutes. Be sure to decide upper or lowercase before you get started. And remember, you don't have to like everything you come up with, just don't scribble anything out! Keep all your ideas visible because they might be useful later.

My 2 minutes with lowercase g are above (drawn on a whiteboard).

Number 5 of 61 "Visualize it Richly and Colorfully" doodles for the Index-Card-A-Day Challenge: Marker on 3"x5" card.

I'm working with 2 different themes a day and gave myself the added challenge of spending no more than 3 minutes creating each card.

The first theme is "Visualize it Richly and Colorfully". That is exactly what my business aims to do and is also a key part of creativity.

The second series is really "happy mail" to be sent to critically ill children from the following organizations: Hugs and Hope, Post Pals, Caring Bridge, and Send Kids the World.

Creativity is most commonly defined as the production of something new and useful. Any creative act requires a touch of the unique or an element of surprise.

Concept Sketch. I am always trying to think up images that are unlike our 'learned' view of the world. Children do it all the time but they are often encouraged to learn to make their images into something they can recognise. I am trying to get back to that childish way of looking that has not yet destroyed the inherent view by projecting 'learned' ideas over it. I scribble on anything. This sketch is on card packaging that has the tape on it. Because my interest is in the idea and NOT making a piece of decoration to hang on a wall these quick works represent an attempt to learn to look at the world in an inherent 'animal' way.

Most people think coming up with ideas is what creativity is all about, but evaluating them is just as important. And it's equally important evaluation waits until you're trying to decide which one of your many ideas to use. If that final decision is made in a group, consensus can be hard to reach.

A simple visual like this one can make the whole process much more simple, enjoyable, and engaging. Everyone can see at a glance how bright the group as a whole thinks that idea really is.

The more ideas you have, the more likely you are to have a good one, so think of a lot of them!

If passion drives you, let reason hold the reigns.​

~ Benjamin Franklin​

Creativity requires both passion and reason to be effective. Reason makes it possible to evaluate which ideas are worth pursuing, while passion supplies the energy needed to keep going despite setbacks.

Great dancers are not great because of their technique, they are great because of their passion.​
