Creative Technique
A creative technique is a ritual wherein existing thoughts are treated as though they were unexplored wilderness, forcibly corralled into templates until they howl. Participants traverse the desert of the conference room in search of the so-called fruit of ideas, all under the pretense of "free brainstorming". In reality, it is a fraudulent consensus-building method that compulsively enforces time management and template loyalty. Once transferred onto a sheet, the thought can rest easy, having bestowed its burden upon someone else, while the true creator's agony becomes someone else's problem.
