Design is… useless?
When I saw this (after having seen Inman’s and Hicks’ versions), I just couldn’t help myself anymore. I had to respond (me, me!). In a really silly philosophical way. But isn’t it, as with music, infact true? Design, just as music, really have no other purpose than satisfying a need created by satisfying another need, created by satisfying another, and so on, lining all the way back to the beginning of mankind.
Or maybe not. Enough of the ranting. Enjoy the wallpaper, complete with a hidden Yoda-speech message.

Hi there. I agree with you when you say that design is useless. I am currently developing a theory on that but it’s in my native portuguese, once I translate it i’ll send a mail if you are interessed. It’s rather complex but the essential point is that what defines culture are the useless things, and all art is in fact useless. I don’t think life is useless, though.
