Oblique Strategies: 3rd Edition - Over one hundred worthwhile dilemmas
© 1979 Brian Eno and Peter Schmidt
The Oblique Strategies are a deck of cards intended to assist artists in breaking through creative blocks and stressful situations by encouraging divergent thinking and changes in attitude.
Collaboratively created by two friends, musician Brian Eno and painter Peter Schmidt, each card features a phrase in order to help through artistic dilemmas (e.g. "Honor thy error as a hidden intention", "Discover the recipes you are using and abandon them", "Emphasise the flaws").
The 3rd Edition(1979) of the set was deliberately used as it was the last edition collaborated on by Peter Schmidt due to his passing in 1980.
