Sandy noticed that when I start production on projects now, I don't get right into the "design" (You know, the artsy stuff). Rather, I start with code writing frames that act as technical affirmation that we can execute a concept.
She then asked if "I would prefer programming over design?" The answer is absolutely not. I love design. Programming is a novelty however for the longest time, my solutions have for the most part been limited by my intermediate technical ability. For the first time in my life, I'm consistently working on advanced code and I'm just absorbing so much. It's exciting. But it's not exciting by itself, rather, it's exciting because it empowers my current design.
What I love about design is that it's such a broad field. There are so many facets to it and each definitely support each other. I started off in traditional design but as my career progressed, I found myself doing a bunch of other things such as screen printing, UI design and now a lot of programming. I love it because each discipline has so much to offer and I feel refreshed by the new techniques and nuances of each. It's all "design" in some form... but it's new every time. It's like a very giving relationship, you learn something new and it makes you fall in love again that much more.
