After the tutorial last week, I realized that other people’s methods are not as good as using their own for testing at this time. However, the previous testing also slightly innovated in the process, and some conclusions were drawn after the test. It also gave me some enlightenment, the most important of which still needs some preparation. Some anxious people can better calm down and participate in the experiment.

Regarding incorporating my content into Oblique Strategies, previous research has provided some more important keywords: nature, attention, technology, information, humor. So trying to merge these points will be a good choice. I mentioned before thinking about problems from the perspective of the future. Here I refer to Foucault’s archaeology. After thinking, I associate imagination with meditation. I think it’s easier for people in the past to enter the state of mindfulness brought about by meditation because people have a lot of time to feel everything around them and the meaning of life, which has more perceptual thinking and is not wholly rational. From this perspective, people who consider the future will be more rational, and the solitary emotional space will be further compressed. In 2019, I wrote a science fiction chronicle about future religions, in which I promoted big technology companies and artificial intelligence. So I think that this time I can try to use a similar setting to design a highly technologically advanced future where people’s imagination and imagination space are presented in the brain by the real scene provided by the “Brain implant” Destroyed, imagination has become something that people pursue and admire, just like the current meditation. This is an evolution from the collapse of thinking space to the collapse of imagination space.

In this context, people need more space for thinking and imagination. Technology is not a villain, but people cannot rely too much on it. As a result, the organization “ROOM I” I created was born. Use classic imagination and offline thinking to help people break away from the highly rational environment of information and technology and find some perceptual self-talk and encouragement.

Under this premise,” my Oblique Strategies” will combine more technology-related content, such as:

1. Too many heatwaves online; get some ice
2. Information bombing, quickly dodge!
3. Will electronic dogs eat electronic bones?

These contents will try some humorous expression styles so that people feel relaxed when they see them. When I present these sentences to my stakeholder, everyone will think that they are witty words, which is reasonable and in line with my expectations, but One sentence is: the wind on the top of the mountain, feel it for yourself when you are offline. This sentence makes my stakeholder feel very comfortable and calm. It also reminds me of the long-researched attention shift theory, which is naturally a perfect carrier of soft charm, not only for relaxing board, but also in my version. It can continue to be reflected in the Oblique Strategies. After all, letting everyone write freely is also a process of imagination, so I have added a lot of content that is closely related to nature in these sentences.

I named this set of ” friendly sea” because it’s more like an information ocean, we are searching for the land to go out of it, so the “sentence” you could find in the sea will be the swimming ring, it will not tell you the way to go, but take one, all things will be easier.
