Documenting aggregates
During Brainstorming

I think that is not enough descriptive for the topic. The principal problem is that in eventstorming has it's own specific rules that are hard to find in a specific diagram type:

Order left to right matters
Order of "post-it" matters
Colors matters
Multiple post-it groups are required
...

I can't find a specific diagram to specify all of it
