My only reliable creativity process:
Take one axis of interest, say "speed", quantize it into a few blocks, e.g. geological, glacial, lifetime, milisecond
Then another with as little regard for the first as possible, let's go with "monsters". e.g. titan, rabid elephant, blob, murder hornets.
Then you just fill out each box as to what the heck the intersection of those two axis mean.
Geological murder hornets? "You see what you don't know about carribean islands is that they are attacking north america and that's why it's trying to run away ..." crazy stuff like that.
If you do this with more carefully chosen, work related axis it works well too. You have to fill out all the boxes though, the hardest ones end up being the most interesting.
This also works with coming up with present ideas.
The whole process is intended to force juxtaposition and consideration of ideas which you normally couldn't come up with via associative links.
