i've always thought that writing is better - it's still with me after all these years - but not anyone can do it interestingly. Art is simpler now, since there's no rules. Design is a bitch and not worth mention. imo. I know.
- Rand0
why would you even compare them?
- Witt0
rephrasing...
Art is pretentious. (At least the conceptual trend we're living in is). It aspires to text but it hardly attains the special notion of a word or the whole meaning you can convey with a few sentences. It's hard work for no purpose. Text can be hard work for a purpose.
I said design desing was a bitch and not worth mention but only when compared to classical art. On a second thought I think it's really more helpful and workable - not that kind of design that aspires to be art (a double nonsense) but the design that works. At it's best design is workable art.
but still I agree with Rand.

yes, I agree with that man people usually call Rand. Don't ask me why.

thats a piece of shit....

// I invoke Rand because I know he's enough reference to get me nowhere.
ahahahah. (it's really lame to laugh at you own jokes fyi). Just kidding man. I actually know you're one of the kind - although i'm not sure of what kind we're talking about.
love,

u confuss things.
design is a craft, art is a means of expression. btw if i'm not wrong the diamond skull already excisted as artwork in a metal cd somewhere in my collection.its time all you start the realize design is not art.
i'm not into art.
i like good craftmenship.
art originates from good craftmenship btw

Now seriously (I cross my heart):
Rand has a point. There's no point in that comparison. What grounds can we compare? Concept art art Functional design? It makes no sense.

art is art.
design, 99% of the time, is commercial art.
the other 1% of design is art.

btw attack on so called digital art.
what are porgrammers/designers do like jonathan harris is more art than putting some distorted images on a beamer and throwing a a weird soundscape on it.
for me art is bit stuck in their own ghetto and narrowminded.
if you see the artscene here to no better than the new jersey guidos cause they all live for the stereotype and really look down on the rest of the society.
- tank020
and rockonski,
it think good design has contributed much more to society
than art.

i also think tank02 is right - but i must leave for the pub.
point is taken, but hardly assured ;)

'craft' is only one part of design (if you are doing it right).
(of course now I'm thinking of Woody Allen..)

Art is useless. Design is not.
