But being quiet and meditating on sound is something completely different and will be discovered very soon by a lot of people who feel that the visual world doesn't reach their soul anymore.
Karlheinz Stockhausen

But in the old days, visual artists used to fall into two distinct categories: those of us who created images with cameras and those of us who applied stuff onto other stuff, with brushes or other tools.
Buffy Sainte-Marie

By the visual pattern, but mostly I'm guided entirely by my ear, what I hear.
Leo Ornstein

Communication is the key, and it's one thing I had to learn-to talk to the actors. I was so involved with the visual and technical aspects that I would forget about the actors.
Steve Buscemi

Concrete poets continue to turn out beautiful things, but to me they're more visual than oral, and they almost really belong on the wall rather than in a book. I haven't the least idea of where poetry is going.
James Laughlin

Create your own visual style... let it be unique for yourself and yet identifiable for others.
Orson Welles

Dialogue should simply be a sound among other sounds, just something that comes out of the mouths of people whose eyes tell the story in visual terms.
Alfred Hitchcock

Each time you do a film you gain a lot of experience and build a visual resume where people get to know who you are.
Pam Grier

Evidently the arts, all the visual arts, are becoming more democratic in the worst sense of the word.
Eugenio Montale

Film fixes a precise visual image in the viewer's head. In fiction, you just hope you're precise enough to convey the intended effect.
Jeff Vandermeer

For me nature is not landscape, but the dynamism of visual forces.
Bridget Riley

Frank is such a great visual storyteller, that if you study his artwork you see that his Sin City books are already the best movies never seen on the big screen.
Robert Rodriguez

I am a great lover of art, in many forms: paintings, objets, textiles. I don't have the talent for painting, but I have a very good sense of colour, a love of visual beauty.
Jacqueline Bisset

I am interested in ideas, not merely in visual products.
Marcel Duchamp

I am very much aware of the visual side of things. I do a lot of photography. I often take Polaroids of things that strike me as visually interesting, just to remember them and perhaps use later.
Helena Christensen

I began as a boy with artistic talent... as a visual artist... I thought that was what I'd become and in my late teens drifted into reading serious literature.
Russell Banks

I began composing works which were imitative of the music I was being told about. I was also very interested in translating the music into visual terms.
Henry Flynt

I can hear you and I can watch your mouth move, and then I put together the sounds and the visual image, and I can understand the words as I integrate the two signals.
Marlee Matlin

I felt I really wanted to back off from music completely and just work within the visual arts in some way. I started painting quite passionately at that time.
David Bowie

I found that it wasn't so oddball to like music and poetry and visual arts, they're kindred spirits.
