“Place a pencil and pad near the telephone of any human of more than primeval intelligence and the bet is ten to one that he’ll doodle during his next telephone call.” So said Steven Arundel, author of Everybody’s Pixillated, in 1937 and not much has changed since then. Virtually all humans doodle once they have the physical tools, but what most of us don’t realize is that doodling is neither dilly-dallying nor pointless motion. The act of doodling engages all three of the major cognitive learning modes in our brains. Doodling, therefore, is a skill that should be strategically honed and intentionally capitalized upon. In this session, Sunni will present some of the latest research on doodling and the brain and then we’ll all work together to apply “the Doodle” using games from the book Gamestorming, coming out in July of this year.
