Dear Dave, My name is Astrid and about 3 hours ago I learned about Gamestorming. I am training for a L&D degree after supporting ADHD professionals for the last 6 years. However, the 1-1 space felt inaccessible, individualistic and not a long-term type of support. I felt the need to move to community. I would like to thank you for writing the book and I hope to keep in the loop with the work and creative projects you go on to complete. Best wishes,
Pleased to meet you Astrid. As it happens I am using Gamestorming in an applied way and building creative community at the School of the Possible. I designed it intentionally to be an affordable and fun way to focus on developing yourself creatively amongst peers. Have a look, you might find it interesting!
There's a reason why visual frameworks are memorable and its due to quirks of historical cognition. Its well known in neuroscience that men's brains are good at maps (rotation in 2/3D space) whereas females are better at landscape/facial recognition. So a visual map appeals to the 50% of population that (subconsiously) recalls (visual) feature whereas males probably codify the structured procss (graph/chart etc). This is the reason why upside down maps (see UK motorways) have a niche since women drivers navigate via visual checkpoints (evolutionary pressure to recall resource-rich gathring sites) wheres the guys need spatial placement to coordinate huntinig.
