I was thinking about my original idea for this blog...which was to find new ways to think creatively and thought I'd try a "roulette wheel" of ideas approach. A very old original inspiration for this idea was the painter Mark Tansey and his "Wheel of Language," a three part wheel filled with words and phrases, that he created to help generate ideas in a more freeform manner. Too often artists over-think the creative process and the idea of incorporating randomness is rather freeing, allowing us to go places we might not have thought of on our own.
Using an online generator, I've created a series of thematic wheels that can be used together or independently to get ideas for what to shoot.
Click on the title links (not the image) to take you to the generator.
Feel like creating your own wheel of ideas? I used "Wheel Decide" and you can easily build your own wheel.
This is great! Lots of potential for all sorts of things (including doing nothing but making more and more wheels - my temptation).
