Flusser Response

I really liked the essay that Flusser wrote. I had never thought about designers as tricksters before, but now I see it as something that is very true. What we do is trick people into trying to buy a product or believe a certain thing. That is our job description. If we fail to trick someone into buying a product we could lose our job. Designers aren't the only artists who trick people in believing a certain thing or to rally for a cause. Other artists often do that as well in their respective mediums.
