I think I’m a poet thesisizer but I’m actually too wordy

What am I doing:

I would describe the state of humor in Design’s relationship at the beginning of my thesis project as a playful use of goofy type, amusing color, and quirky graphic elements. But, this account sounds only mildly accurate for whimsical communication design and not much else. Its purely visual reference points demonstrate the superficiality of what the description considers “humor in Design.” Humor as rhetoric—as an intangible but hearty driving component–had not been notionally explored as a common thread throughout the whole of Design. To a person who treats humor as an all-encompassing medication, this fissure, in the era of its fledgling discovery, was a gap that absolutely begged for unity via theory. However, in order to visualize the obscured boundaries and complexity of how humor functions as a Design approach, I also needed a Design problem to employ as a guinea pig.
