I’m currently studying Graphic Design at Leeds Metropolitan University. For one of my final pieces, I am doing a critical study on the subject of

How technology has evolved design? I am focussing mainly on designers that have witnessed design evolve, or have been within the design industry.

If you could answer any of the following questions to help with the research of this particular study, it would be very much appreciated.

Do you think technology has help evolve graphic design within the last 20 years?

Do you think old methods are just as good as new?

(E.G) I have recently practiced screen printing along with digital printing and found the process of screen printing much more personal, creative and preferred the over all outcome.

Do you think keeping up with software hinders your creativity?

The Apple Macintosh has evolved graphic design immensely, Do you believe graphic design would be where it is today without it?

Due to software and new technologies do you believe the design profession is becoming less respected and more open to non designers?

E.G Build your own website programmes and online tutorials

Thank-you again for your time.

Very much appreciated
