Designing Music, and other soul-destroying concepts

What is going on here? And just when you thought there was nothing more wanky than an Experience Designer*, along comes a Music Designer. Can you say soul-destroyer, boys and girls?

* Unless they consider something like tying you up and throwing you into a dark room filled with sensual sounds as the design of an Experience. Or hiring clowns to show up instead of the person you thought you were going to have a meeting with, at random intervals. Or destroying overy one of your belongings while you watch from a comfortable sound-proofed lounge sipping your favorite drink and listening to Frank Sinatra post-brain-damage. Then you are an experience designer. Otherwise, you are not designing experiences so just tell people you are a geek like everyone else who stares at the same 12inch area for most of his or her day. You, for instance, while full of very good points, are a click-designer, not an interaction designer. And this isn’t just semantics. Abusing words cheaperns that which they represent. Like defense. And love. And genius.
