VST Protege is a digital version of the board game, Protege. It has players racing to find hidden patterns in static images by making creative connections and seeing beyond the obvious. In other words, it’s all about recognizing visual relationships. VST stands for Visual Thinking Strategies, which are techniques used to boost creativity and problem-solving skills. It’s this use of strategies that sets VST Protege Moog apart from similar apps like VSCO or Prisma . Instead of just adding funky filters or neat distortion algorithms, we’ve designed this app specifically for creatives who want to develop their visual thinking skills through Moog Challenges and playing Moog games as part of a team — hence why we call it “Protege meets social gaming”!

Takeaways
We’re not going to lie, playing Moog Challenges can get pretty intense. It’s a lot like problem-solving or studying for an exam — if you’re used to being an “auditor” (you look for the obvious in a situation), you’ll probably have to make slight adjustments in mindset to become more of a “synthesizer” (you look for the non-obvious in a situation). If you want to become a better creative thinker, you have to challenge yourself. You have to get out of your comfort zone and push yourself to think differently and more creatively. You have to get out of “auto pilot” and start actively engaging your creative senses.
