I think that he had a big influence on giving a new look at designs and definitely inspired designers to try a different route, but I wouldn't go so far as to say that he changed everything.
but I also think is that people like Carson, without education and doing design helped discredit this profession to a point where we are now. Their influence is definitely not to be neglected but in all the hype, they gave everyone ideas that they can do design without any education. That is why design profession is not taken very seriously today. I refuse to listen or take seriously anyone who doesn't have real education in the field.
You will see very creative lawyers bending laws and things like that, but none of them had 1 class in law and then started their practice. A very important thing to think about.
