Summary:Lehrer discusses the current conditions and emerging trends of the graphic arts industry in New York City NY. Among other observations made, a design critic has noted that New York City and the rest of the country are in a holding pattern in design, waiting for some explosion to happen, and emphasizes that several developments are responsible for this pervasiveness of polished mediocrity, like design software becoming more powerful, and designers being extremely proficient with digital tools that they could implement complex projects.
