Hi Gunnar,
Thanks for your comments on Andre's work.
You suggested
'Asking "What actions that we assume are only done by human designers can be done by machines?" is a very interesting question and, I think, at the heart of many of Terry Love’s posts.'
Actually, I'm asking a tougher question that is hard on human egos.
'Assuming human creativity is highly limited, how can we design automated design systems that design much BETTER than we can design as humans with our biologically highly-limited abilities of creativity, intuition, emotion, perception, feeling and thinking.'
This is straightforward, we do it in many spheres of human activity to obtain advantage over our biological limitaitons. We do it in regard to our biological limitations of thinking, feeling, emotion and intuition by using asynchronous recordings (e.g. words, books, myth stories, drawings, dreamtime dances etc).
Somehow, designers and design researchers have, without justifying it, assumed that human design abilities are unlimited and cannot be gone beyond using other methods we devise. This assumption is obviously false. It is a big chunk of the foundation of design theory and design research culture that needs changing.
Warm regards,
Terry
