As seen in wired today.

quote:
It's software with a sense of humor - and a parody of the cookie-cutter look of much graphic design. The n_Gen engine, developed by San Francisco's Move Design, can churn out an infinite number of layouts. Just supply the text and select from one of five current styles (California Noir? Die Modernist?). Using proprietary algorithms, the program mocks up the words with style-specific fonts and images in design after design - as fast as you can hit the n_Generate button.


Worth a look/see if you have the chance. Interesting concept at any rate. I prefer to look at this as "humor" but I'm afraid they just might be on to something. Hey - you never know!

Not in my case, *crack knuckles*. Just kidding wink. But the best designers can/should always develop their own designs. Seriously though, you'd be surprised how many "web designers" can't even cut their own photoshop comps.
