    At least you are above the fray gramme;)

    To respond to your point though, I don't think that's what McLuhan was aiming at when he said that. Trite, superficial design has always existed, hasn't it - through modernity, post-modernity, or whatever people want to call it.

    Postmodernism is a pretty nebulous term, and I'm probably out of my league trying to define it, but in graphic design I don't think it means that things are superficial, just that the classical ideas of good/ bad/ utilitarianism are not as applicable.
