it's all very simple:
it's not that design has died.
everything is already dead.
the internet, the media, airplanes, cellphones, international shipping, and ubiquitous networks have destroyed meaning forever.
that's right, you read that correctly. to put it another way: the vast sprawl of globalization has pre-empted the very possibility of a true unifying movement. nothing means anything anymore. the old gods are dead or dying. culture is a joke. people live for themselves, not for ideologies or movements.
nihilism is here, and it's not going anywhere... ever.
