A doodle is an unfocused drawing made while a person’s attention is otherwise occupied. Doodles are simple drawings that can have concrete representational meaning or may just be abstract shapes. Stereotypical examples of doodling are found in school notebooks, often in the margins, drawn by students daydreaming or losing interest during class. Other common examples of doodling are produced during long telephone conversations if a pen and paper are available. –From Wikpedia
Could this be the most non-factual statement in Wikpedia? you might want to ask Sunni Brown. She says: Doodlers, unite! She makes the case for unlocking your brain via pad and pen.
Studies show that sketching and doodling improve our comprehension — and our creative thinking. So why do we still feel embarrassed when we’re caught doodling in a meeting?
I look at doodling as a precursor to many of my storyboards, designs and prototypes. I have to admit that I throw away a page of doodles a day. I mean what would life be without them? I wonder though is there an App for this?
