Despite the modern age of youtube videos, courses, and tutorials, there are only a finite number of resources available for learning an infinite number of skills. Learning these new skills — especially if you don’t know where to begin — can lock up a project, freeze an artist’s creativity, or kill an idea altogether. This presentation will demonstrate a mental model for analyzing problems and finding adjacently related solutions. Through modular and lateral thinking, you will learn tools of intentionality and become better armed for problem solving and embracing new challenges.
