i went to the bookstore just yesterday to pick up this book, “caffeine for the creative mind” by stephan mumaw and wendy lee oldfield. the book was not at the design section (as i had initially thought), but it was under self-help, together with a couple of books on creativity and innovation. being a person who sometimes buys books coz the covers look really, really nice (i’m still resisting on the gorgeous covers of penguin books), this was one of those books that i just had to get.
the book contains many different exercises to help you to think differently, a little bit more creatively and sometimes even out of the box. with 250 exercises to do, you would be pretty much occupied for most part of the year. i will be attempting some of the exercises and posting up some of the results on this blog, so keep a look out! i guess by the time i finish the 250 activities, it would constitute a review for the book. =)
as a booster shot, here’s a list of articles i found related to the subject. have fun!
- staying motivated (from a list apart)
- feed your mind | become a sponge | anticipate (from howdesign)
- more brain, less storm (from core77)
- design inspiration
- ten creativity kickstarts (from creativity web, via websitetips.com)
