Please post the links to your deliverables in the chat.

PAGES

"Cognitively, craft is our default because we draw on our experience to form a perspective about the current situation. ... Our perspective becomes structured into PAGES — parts, actions, goals, event, and self-concept."

Reading/reflection time

Terminology reminders:

• cue — something blocking us progressing.
• craft — the approaches we 'automatically' take when doing/building/designing/etc.
• creativity — a perspective shifting exercise that allows us to engage in a different approach than typically allowed with 'craft' alone.
