If you cut some words out of a newspaper and a person writes words in those blanks then what has happened? If we cut out parts of a painting and a person paints in those blanks then what has happened? How is the person who wrote in the blanks or the person who painted in the blanks changed by writing or painting in the blanks? How are they changed when someone responds to what they've written or painted? How did the original writer or painter come to write and paint what was later blanked out?
