Is it not so that intension is the motivating desiderata that brings the designer to the point of initially engaging with that which does not yet exist? The designer's mind is stimulated by initial conditions that spark inquiry and imagination. That state of mind becomes a determination to undertake action to achieve the desiderata...a strategy. Following that comes intention, the tactics to enter into a mental and physical state to creatively engage the desiderata as an attractor, toward which the design effort proceeds. Along the way the design process will engage the attractor causing it to be changed into what will eventually become the outcome of the effort to achieve the desiderata.
I think you have caught the gist. I would also add that the 'strange attractor' for the whole process is the 'design mind' that has actually made us human and distinguished us as agents of our own destinies.
Agreed. And AI cannot stand in for that particular strange attractor because it cannot communicate with the human mind in that way by imagining that which does not yet exist.
