Tom,

I thank you. I think the present is an accumulation of all the pasts and I agree that we can take off from there, as we are inheritors of all the pasts, taking in consideration that we have absorbed it.
In as much as a designer is concerned, specially nowadays where design has become a profession in itself, I would consider a cell phone to be an engineered design evolving from the ancient drums as an early code of communication.

Best regards,
Antonio
