Book Details
The Canvas
The primary artifact of the Slow Create Framework is the Canvas. It's a matrix of boxes that allows you to simply and easily plot-out your problem information, and any progress/input you've developed over time against that problem. Each step of the canvas helps you culminate your iterative creative cycles over short or long periods of time.
The Canvas
The Slow Create Framework is a streamlined process for ideation, innovation, and problem-solving that functions in alignment with neuroscience. By using this framework, anyone can derive more ideation value from their daily work, and infuse their existing mental cycles with more valuable fodder from the subject matter they are already working with.
The model seeks to perform 2 key operations:
1) structure subject matter more effectively for optimal brain-memory.
2) apply a specific process against that structured subject matter in alignment with predictable brain activity.
This model includes easy-to-use tools like the canvas, pipeline, and funnel.
- Problem/Idea Area
- Factors
- Actors
- Inspirations
- Patterns
- Details
- Secrets
- Unsolved
- Mindless Work LADDER
- Nibbles of Synthesis
- Inflections
By working through from top-left to bottom-right, you can iteratively process through your subject matter on the way to inflections and potentially moments of breakthrough.
The Canvas
The Canvas allows you to plot out each idea area or problem domain into a single, structured set of boxes we call a Canvas. This structured information becomes your primary, centralized, and organized dataset that your mind can optimally process against on a regular, ongoing basis. Use the Funnel to explain each step within the Canvas.
The Pipeline
As you create multiple canvases, it can become hard to keep track of them. The Pipeline organizes all your canvases into a single view. From this one simplified synopsis, your mind can traverse rapidly between problem sets or idea areas on a daily basis.
The Triad
As you emerge from the Slow Create process with inflections, breakthroughs, or little-c creative epiphanies, the Sustainable Mystique Triad helps you amalgamate and communicate your findings in a format and cadence that can fascinate an audience.
Above shows the 3 core components of the framework, the canvas, pipeline, and triad, working together in order from left to right. Each canvas you create can be dropped into a single pipeline. As you work through the pipeline, you can generate triads. That is, well-framed models of communication of your progress, (and eventual results), using the Sustainable Mystique triad.
“This book is a must-have for all tech start-up founders and entrepreneurs.”
