Brutethink is a technique by Michael Michalko, based on Random Stimuli, and is defined in detail in his book Thinkertoys.
The process is
- bring in a random word into the problem (from a dictionary, newspaper, book...)
- Think of things associated with the random word
- Force connections between the random word, and the challenge, also between the associated things and the challenge.
- List all your ideas.
