The xteenth time we had this discussion was eleven years ago. I know because I checked the date on a response I made to it. You can find that response at http://www.gunnarswanson.com/definedesign/ but a couple of warnings: It is a Flash movie (I told you it was eleven years ago) and it’s too big of a file (45 MB.) Apologies for the inevitable bugs from a combination of the technological choices and over a decade of sitting on servers.
Much of what I would say about the subject is easier to understand with visual support so I won’t attempt to reproduce it in the form of emails to the list.
The first half (before I start talking about my work) is more relevant to this discussion. The rest was an attempt at seeing how graphic design in particular fits into the questions through my work. I never really got a response to the movie (other than seeing a newsletter declaring it "too long") which is why I haven’t returned to it either conceptually or to fix the technical shortcomings.
