Its interesting that many broad-scale decisions that create standardized methods, though deliberated by commitee, are still often ultimately decided by one person. By this I mean, take a look at say the look of the subway map in New York. Its mostly the same as maybe one in Chicago, Boston, or any other major city- but its still not standardized, it was decided on by someone in New York, some head of some committee, someone who can say, "I did that." And yet you think of it as standard, as the bar thats been set, as if its just the way things are, as if it defines its groupset- thats just what those things look like, to you or anyone else. Take the iconic iPod for example. You don't think about the fact that ultimately someone hadta make a decision about colors or shapes or anything, you just think, an iPod IS this. And eventually, this look becomes iconic to the point that its memorialized in the human psyche as the embodiment of many things, representative in your figurative mind. Yet it was just one person who finalized that it should be this way and not that. Is this making any sense........?
