- Topics: [[Organization]] --- ### 1. 3D - Ideas within ambiguity can be imagined as trinkets scattered within a foggy forest within 3D space. - The disconnect you feel is chaos. Not knowing where you are, what ideas you have, where you need to go, and how to make sense of it all. - You must first center yourself. - Accept that chaos is the natural order of things. - It is in accepting chaos that we can to establish control. - To do so, we must also understand that in order to solve a "3D problem", we must apply non-linear "3D" techniques and solutions. - Use whatever means necessary to start establishing your sense of your surroundings. - Establish your sense of space. ### 2. Buckets - Buckets, whether physical or metaphorical, are powerful ways that allow us to encapsulate chaos to establish control. - When patterns are at the edge of emerging... Get a bucket. - Move all related things inside. - From 100 things, we make 25 things. - From 25 things, we make 10 things. - From 10 things, we make 3 things. ### 3. Circles and square - Artists use the combination of circles and squares to construct the basic foundations for all things. - All things can be broken down to their most basic parts. - In is in this process of deconstruction, and then reconstruction, that we better understand the materials that we have to work with and the space that we have to work in. - Break things down. - Break them down smaller still. ### 4. 2D - Through the understanding of 3D problems in 3D space, we can begin the process of translating those concepts into 2D space. - Transforming interconnected woven concepts, sequenced into fabric that flows from one point to another. Like weaving many spools of coloured yarn into a single multi-coloured scarf. - Transforming 3D ideas into 2D space. - Crafting control from chaos. ### 5. Practice - Everything takes practice. - This process is no different. - Recognize that planning is not a problem to solve, but a process to manage. - Recognize that this will always be a challenge. And that you are not defined by your challenge, but rather, by how you handle it.
