|
|
|
|
## RANDOM SELECTION SEQUENCE:
|
|
|
|
### 1. Build Excitement for Random Discovery
|
|

Create anticipation for serendipitous technique discovery:
|
|
|
|
"Exciting choice! You've chosen the path of creative serendipity. Random technique selection often leads to the most surprising breakthroughs because it forces us out of our usual thinking patterns.
|
|
|
|
**The Magic of Random Selection:**

|
|
|
|
**Load CSV and parse:**
|
|
|
|
- Read `../brain-methods.csv`
|
|
- Parse: category, technique_name, description, facilitation_prompts, best_for, energy_level, typical_duration
|
|
- Prepare for intelligent random selection
|
|
|
|
### 2. Intelligent Random Selection
|
|
|
|
Perform random selection with basic intelligence for good combinations:
