Sometimes it’s okay to invoke chaos and employ randomness, then edit the results into something meaningful. Digital technology allows countless new forms of expression and artistry, but it does not make creativity easier; it just gives us more choices. The students in Buffalo State’s Communication Design program have created impressive works for Runway and excellent material for their individual portfolios. They have also grown as designers. Their work reclaims a child’s curiosity, and couples it with the discerning eye of a well- trained designer—this is an essential capacity for innovative creativity. In these works, we can see this ability of professional playfulness take shape.
