Regular readers of this weblog know that I'm interested in rule-generated music, and in the process of making any kind of art. These two ideas dovetail in the Oblique Strategies, a deck of creative suggestions designed by musician Brian Eno and painter Peter Schmidt.
I've used the Oblique Strategies with some regularity for a long time now, and I recommend them to everyone. But when I used them in my recording sessions with Chris, I found myself occasionally craving a set more tailored to the specific possibilities of group improvisation.
So a few weeks ago I made up a deck of 56 cards derived directly from my own musical process. I call these strategies the Possible Moves, and they can be found here.
If there's any interest, I'll put these up as a series of PDFs so that people can print them out and make their own decks. Labels: creative_process, instructions
