Techniques Christian Saint-Pierre Uses:
I enjoy breaking a problem down into the simplest elements possible and finding analogues to those simple elements which may provide clues as to how those simple elements could possibly interact. I also enjoy big picture thinking - meditating on systems in my head, writing and drawing ideas down, changing those ideas, writing down new ideas which stem from this process, then stuffing it all back in my head and starting over, and doing that a lot, until I eventually end up with an end product, system or solution that can be implemented, either by me or by someone else.
