[] GO FISH
[] GRAB BAG
Both 'fish' and 'bag' are means for generating novel data by randomizing the discovery process. During the exploratory phase this affords access to experience which would not otherwise be in play
[] HUNTING & GATHERING Similarly, this tool widens the encounter with novel data to encompass environments such as museums, city streets, the zoo, and anywhere a squareONE field trip might venture to

[] RADIAL MAPS is a graphic format for depicting evaluations of any sort in series of embedded and overlapping circles
