I can also create a baby. Takes no planning (in fact, sometimes it takes a
lack thereof) And it takes no thought.
But a classification system takes planning and thought. I think design is a
subset of create, and IA a subset of design.
Not all brandy is cognac, but all cognac is brandy.
IA's siblings might include architecture, graphic design, product design,
urban planning, interior design...
Design I think of as being conscious, calculated and creative preparation
for the act of making.
My mystery is what is the relationship with writing. How is writing
fundamentally different than design, other than medium?
