Well, let’s face it. These laws that you say, hidden laws, they are hidden. But they’re only hidden by our own ignorance. And the word “mysticism” is just being arrived at through people’s ignorance. There’s nothing mystical about it, only that you’re ignorant of what that entails.
George Harrison

And yet design and designers. I’m a designer, and what I’ve seen is that we are perpetually distressed, perpetually feel threatened by the idea of democratization. As long as I’ve been a designer there’s been talk about the idea of accreditation, about the idea of licensing designers, about making people take training, take tests in order to practice design, regulating the practice of design. Designers take a look at services and website like 99 Designs, which is a website, a marketplace–if you have a design task that you need done, a business card or something, you post it there and designers bid on the job and the effect is it drives down the price of design. It drives down to the median value of design.
