Oblique Strategies

here's a cool link to you MAC users out there. http://www.apple.com/downloads/dashboard/reference/oblique.html

it's a freeware program of all of brian eno's 'oblique strategies' card decks. an ingenious idea, really!

if you don't know about these cards, they were designed to be used by a musician or producer when they've reached a deadspot during recording or mixing, etc. so, to jumpstart the session again, one would pick a card out the deck and follow the 'strategy' written on it. it's really great but in my experience, most artists/producers don't usually have the guts to follow the first card they choose! hehehe...

but either way it can be a really good little tool to use around the studio.
