Сatena Nov 28, 02007
Сatena is an entertaining word game that helps develop creative thinking. Catena trains a free, associative style of thinking, and assists in observing both dominant patterns and vertical thinking. In also has many other uses.
I initially thought that I invented that game in 1990 when I served in Soviet Army, but it rather looks like I adapted it from some unknown source and gradually developed its rules. I took the name from philosophy — the term «Catena Mundi» was used by Descartes for describing a mystical chain that connects everything.
Here are some catenas:
- market, mist:
market — forecast — mist,
market — morning — mist - mather, atom:
mother — nature — physics — atom,
mother — warmth — energy — atom - Prague, stool:
Prague — bar — stool - euro, eternity:
euro — coin — circle — eternity - ticket, thought:
ticket — road — crossword — thought
Give it a try — your feedback would be greatly appreciated!
