Wow! it's 2003 all over again. Tog's original post that inspired this organization called on us to be "architects". our entire first 6 months of discussions on this list was about why we are designers and not architects. ;-)
I refuse to repeat 6 months of ideas that I feel haven't changed and I think Seth's look at this is as a non-designer looking in and doesn't really understand that there is a long and important legacy connecting our work to design and not to architecture, a term which actually has been coopted adn ruined by engineering and other technologist, who have taken a sub-discipline of design and have created a bastardization to help make themselves feel more self-important with actually adding little or no further value. Now I understand that the people see design as "look & feel", but it is a worthy and important goal for us to evangelize a much more accurate and broader and historical vision of design as being so much more. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
