It’s rare that you’ll get a comedian at Kurt’s level to let you into their creative process so intimately, but, then again, that’s an integral part of what makes Kurt Braunohler so great.

Kurt has gotten Brian Eno and Peter Schmidt’s famous box of cards known as Oblique Strategies that serve as ways to push creative thinking and inspiration and has opted to share his writing that comes from each card on a blog.

So far, he’s only a couple of days in, but it’s kind of an unprecedented and fascinating look into how Kurt’s thought process leading up to how he twists things, observations, experiences, etc. into humor and jokes even before they’re presented in their rawest, live form on stage. 

While this is Kurt’s process and possibly Kurt’s process only, you might just be able to catch a glimpse of how comedic notions come into being.
