    If we were to talk about design, and what qualifies one to be a designer, I think we could agree on some list of qualities that are necessary to be called a designer.

    But as soon as we involve the word art, it's like there is some mystical veil that cannot be penetrated. Like we don't know or can't know what a good artist is, in the same way we know what a good designer is.

    • I think the reason for that is that art is a lot more subjective than design. Design is problem solving. Art is whatever the fuck you want it to be.set
    • We can quantify and measure a problems being solved well or not. Art on the other hand has no purpose other than to be enjoyed, and enjoyment is subjective.set
