Calling All Minds: How To Think and Create Like an Inventor

Temple Grandin's "Calling All Minds: How To Think and Create Like an Inventor" — an executable toolkit for developing the inventor's mindset through hands-on projects, understanding patent history, learning about visual thinking and different kinds of minds, and building practical skills in paper crafts, levers, woodworking, flight, and optical illusions. Covers 7 use cases: ① The Inventor's Mindset — how to think and create ("How do inventors think differently?") ② Paper and Printing — the history of information ("How did paper and printing change the world?") ③ Levers and Pulleys — mechanical advantage ("How do simple machines give us super strength?") ④ Wood and Hands-On Making — building physical things ("Why is making things with your hands important?") ⑤ Flight and Aerodynamics — things that fly ("How do birds, kites, and planes fly?") ⑥ Optical Illusions — how the eye and brain work ("Why do optical illusions trick our brains?") ⑦ The Squeeze Machine — turning difference into invention ("How did Temple Grandin's autism lead to her most famous invention?") Trigger when users say: "How to think like an inventor" "Calling All Minds" "Temple Grandin" "What is visual thinking" "How do patents work" "Tell me about inventors" "How to make paper" "How do levers work" "How to build a kite" "What is the Squeeze Machine" "How to make a kaleidoscope" "Who invented the typewriter" "How does QWERTY work" "Optical illusions explained" or mention: Temple Grandin / visual thinking / autism / squeeze machine / Gutenberg / movable type / Linotype / Mergenthaler / QWERTY / Sholes / Beulah Henry / Liquid Paper / Bette Nesmith Graham / Margaret Knight / paper bag machine / Sarah Goode / hideaway bed / Thomas Jennings / dry-scouring / Grace Hopper / COBOL / Philo Farnsworth / television / Chester Greenwood / earmuffs / Louis Braille / braille / Sam Houghton / two-broom / Archimedes / lever / pulley / hydraulic jack / Frank Gormley / Richard Dudgeon / Amelia Earhart / Wright brothers / George Cayley / Ames room / stereoscope / View-Master / Adelbert Ames / Charles Wheatstone / kaleidoscope / snowflake / symmetry / Fibonacci / golden ratio / radial symmetry Also triggers when the user says they just installed this skill or doesn't know how to start — the AI MUST proactively present the Quick Start guide below.
