A game for bureaucracies to counter their creativity-killing tendency. Or a game for individuals who want to think outside the box.

The bureaucracy employs full time fools, eclectics and kids or rotates the positions with existing staff. The job of fools is to go against perceived wisdom. Eclectics think everything is relevant to everything. And kids ask, 'but why?' incessantly.

Individuals playing this game deliberately cultivate all three personas in their head.

The greatest threat to creativity is the non-transparent assumptions in our existing world-view. There is a hidden logic in thinking like a fool and a child. And the eclectic breaks down the disciplinary walls that stop knowledge from cross-pollinating.
