an act of framing
“an act of framing, of enclosing environmental and unintended sounds in a moment of attention in order to open the mind to the fact that all sounds are music.”
—Kyle Gann on John Cage’s composition “4’33”
(Interesting to substitute the words “sights” and “photographs” in this sentence the next time you go out with your camera.)

"Trout lilies in the spring woods"
“One is in despair over the current manifestation of malevolent imbecility and the seemingly invincible power of rapacity, yet one finds oneself writing a poem about the trout lilies in spring woods.”
-Denise Levertov

“When I photograph, I start out with an open mind. If I start out with a precise idea of what I want to photograph, I might miss an interesting event or object. So, I begin with an open mind and try to photograph all kinds of objects.”
