This concept could mean that you have to be bored senseless for this to happen, right? wrong, doodling can happen when an uncomfortable emotion arrises that you yourself are not used to. For example if a rattional person was in a cafe and they like peace and quiet. The cafe was noisy at lunch time and that was the only time the man had off all day. This was end up him doodling out of fustration.
This theory of mine needs to be proven.
Emotional Doodling is rapid uncensored drawing that can integrate emotions and pain and lead to sudden flashes of intuition....With Emotional Doodling we allow the doodle to form, seemingly out of its own volition. The doodle "doodles itself" about our disturbing emotions much like a non-dominant hand appears to have a "mind of its own" during automatic writing.
