It's often said that the difference between art and design is that art's purpose is to communicate or provoke thought and emotion, while design's purpose is to perform or enable a function. But often, in order to perform that function, design does need to provoke thought or emotion as well. On this episode, we talk about how design principles can be used to communicate ideas and convey emotions–often without words. Oh yeah, and we also talk about dinosaurs.

Work Association is a show hosted by two creative agency founders that started playing a word association game to help them expand the way they think about design, technology, and branding. Each episode is a discussion based around a featured word, researched by one of the two hosts. That host then chooses the next word for the other host to research for the following episode, and the cycle continues. We hope to use Work Association to get listeners thinking differently about how they approach problems and design challenges. Thanks for listening.
