Description
Over One Hundred Worthwhile Dilemmas. Unlock your creativity with Oblique Strategies SE app! Get inspired with random strategies for art, design, music, and writing.
"Oblique Strategies" is a concept developed by Brian Eno and Peter Schmidt to help artists overcome creative blocks through lateral thinking. It consists of a deck of cards, each one containing a vague or ambiguous phrase that can be used to solve a problem intuitively, by breaking conventional thinking patterns and interpreting it from a new perspective.
This app aims to translate the essence of the original cards deck into a digital experience, making it accessible to a wider audience. It contains the original edition, as well as the newer decks, presenting them in a sleek minimalist style inspired by the original design of the cards. The user interface is simple and straightforward, built to encourage creative or design thinking without distracting from the process. The home screen widget on iOS 14 allows reading a new quote every day without opening the application. The Apple Watch version can run independently without needing the app installed on your iPhone.
With VoiceOver, anyone with a visual impairment can have the Oblique Strategies phrase read to them. Long tap the screen to have the last sentence read to you again. Also, you can shake the iPhone for a new sentence.

Ratings and Reviews
Same content
This is a great inspirational app however I purchased their other oblique apps and got exactly the same content shown but in different methods. In a way that was good because I was able to choose which method I preferred out of the three however it was at a cost.
Enostic
Fantastic to use when anxiety or self doubt gets the better of you in the studio. Or in life for that matter.
A sort of early mindfulness.
