When I play the piano, I often come to a repeat sign. Can that passage be repeated? If I am teaching a piano student and we come to a repeat sign, I tell the student that there are no repeats. We return to the beginning of a certain passage, but it’s never the same.

What is then interesting is to find, in that continuity, the less obvious differences of texture: the signs, the markings, the assemblages, the things hiding in plain sight in each cityscape or landscape. This is what outstanding photographers do, and it is the target the rest of us chase.
