Lost Flash Drive - Remixed then Returned

Partial Revelation

There's this danger of becoming too precise and too revealing- it's more powerful to hold something back than to show the whole picture. The reason is that when you show the whole picture there is no space left for the viewer to come into it. But when you leave something out, the viewer will fill that empty space with experience from their own life. They can end up resonating on a more deeper level with the thing when you give them that space to come in.
