Fussing with the seams:
Any place in a composition, at any level of structure, where something ends and the next thing begins, if I make the slightest little adjustment to the length of the gap in between—or if there’s no gap, to how much they overlap—I’m always amazed what a dramatic effect that can have on the overall momentum, energy and shape of a piece. I keep relearning this but it surprises me a little every time.
