3. Ugly sketching can do the trick.
Keep it Loose!
Universal Mind™
When you feel inadequate in
your sketching, pause and
reconsider your perspective.
Don’t worry how well you draw.
Instead, think of your sketching
as visual thinking, which works
regardless of your drawing
quality. Ugly gets the job done
just fine.

4. 6-8-5
6-8-5 is designed to generate lots of
Universal Mind™
ideas in a short period of time. The
activity can then be repeated to
hone & flesh out a few of the best
ideas.
5 minutes to play each round
15-20 minutes for discussion
Before the meeting, prepare several
sheets of paper with a 2×2 or 2×3
grid. You want to create boxes big
enough for players to sketch their
ideas in, but small enough to
constrain them to one idea per box.
Prepare enough paper for everyone
to have about 10 boxes per round.
Tell the players to sit silently and
sketch out as many ideas as they can
until the timer ends — with the goal
of reaching 6-8 ideas. The sketches
can and should be very rough
— nothing polished in this stage.

5. Sketchboarding
Universal Mind™
The sketchboard is a low-fi
technique that makes it
possible for designers to
explore and evaluate a range
of interaction concepts while
involving both business and
technology partners. Unlike the
process that results from
wireframe-based design, the
sketchboard quickly performs
iterations on many possible
solutions and then singles out
the best user experience to
document and build upon.
