      A company decides it needs to change its logo.

      This can improve or hurt sales.

      The larger the company, the less the logo should actually change.

      A minor logo change probably has very limited stylistic meaning apart from the original logo. So it can be a very small effort.

      But

      If a multi billion dollar conglomerate pays a graphic designer a mere $5,000 to draw up a few logos and do some testing with customers... What if the redesign fails?

      Then the marketing team and executives have acted irresponsibly.

      So we need justification.

      We need to spend millions of dollars.

      We need a long process.

      If that fails, then who could have known? We spent so much money.

      But you can't spend it on logo design, because, well... There's not very much logo design happening here.

      So instead... This.

    Broke: Designing as new logo for a corporation and justifying your design based off of aesthetic principles

    Woke: Designing a new logo for a corporation and justifying your design by showing the equipotential lines of the force field created by its immense energy warping light around itself, creating a lensed image of the end of the aisle so that customer can always see what's further down the aisle, even when your product is directly blocking their line of site, thereby creating a situation where new advertising opportunities can by located in places that would've been considered too obstructive in traditional Euclidean geometric space, which in turn increases brand presence without making the shopping experience for the customer too inconvenient, and thereby increasing quarterly profits by 0.7%.

    I was literally logging in to make a post saying 21st century liberal philosophy is just expanding the free market makes you freer because if you don't your country gets inexplicably blockaded and the. Bombed into the stone age, but I was wrong. It's far more complex than that.

    A. Universe Expansion

    The universe expands exponentially with f(x)=e^x.

    [1 light year = 671 million miles per hour].
