Is the graphic computer an aid 0r a substitute of the designer?

Although the usefulness of the graphic computer has been questioned, its importance nowadays to the designer cannot be denied.

The author supports this thesis by examining the past and giving us a view into the future.

In view of this controversy he puts the man-computer relationship —in the case of the interactive graphic— in its right place.

In his opinion the designer who works in this way becomes a director, in charge of a project and a scene which is always different and in which he not only attends to the computer but is free to be creative and to follow his own initiative.
