I keep a pack of Brian Eno and Peter Schmidt’s Oblique Strategies cards on my desk, and although I don’t use them enough, I actually might do a purchase of this: A deck of playing cards called Distant Early Warning is designed to be used as a problem-solving device as taught by Marshall McLuhan when you need that extra push. The deck was originally given to subscribers to the “DEW-Line Newsletter” but you can buy them at Marshall’s son Eric’s site here. They come in a choice of colours green, red, black, blue, or brown, and the package also includes inserted instruction sheet.
