These two works join to create an unwritten dramatic story that is up to the viewer to compose. Overall, they are a good example of how two separate works can inspire and draw up our own creative ways of interpreting and shifting our surroundings into fiction. On their own, the former is just a photo of a cat and the latter is just a musical piece, but together they join and weave a dramatic story.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Without a sense of intrigue, the world feels dull.
