“I think that there's a strong crossover in that Janis, studying the visual arts, was learning how to break it down into details and see how to get the expression that we wanted. And her visual art is emotionally expressive as her singing was. And, I think, when she switched over to singing, she already knew that it was something serious that you broke into pieces so she developed the ability to break it down and learn little riffs that she could throw in here and there.” ThinkingLittlesArtWantedStrongAbilityBreakStudyPiecesSeriousExpressionSingingArt IsDown AndDetailsBrokeVisualsHere And ThereExpressiveVisual ArtCrossover Author:Laura Joplin

“Imagine a smashed stained-glass window, a page torn from a Bible, or a snippet of choral singing. You would still recognize their religious roots, wouldn't you? In 1915, Coca-Cola designed a bottle so unique that if it were smashed into thousands of pieces, from a single shard of glass you'd still be able recognize the brand.

“Any music star would be singing about his lost love. A movie would be about a relatable incident; it wasn't an untouchable magic dragon box. It was something that people could relate to, and when I vanished a girl, it would be a story about a girl that left me, or a cutting into pieces would be a date with a magician. I wouldn't just vanish a girl in a shower, I would do the shower scene from Psycho [1960] with a [Alfred] Hitchcock cameo.” PeopleStoriesWould BeGirlLostLeftStarsPiecesCuttingMagicSceneSingingBoxesRelateDragonsLost LoveShowersMagician1960sIncidentsRelatablePsychoHitchcockUntouchablesCameos Author:Judd Apatow
