“We’re surrounded by images. Most art is in a frame, you know it isn’t real, it’s in a frame. But in addition to just referring to being surrounded by images, it’s to a feeling of being immersed in the scene, not being separate from the scene, not being an external viewer, of something that happens, but being part of it.” – Dan Sandin (edited and taken out of context).
