Understanding this quote
The quote suggests that giving models room to act, rather than directing every detail, can lead to unexpected and worthwhile results. Focusing on their physical presence means paying attention to how they actually appear, move, or occupy space. The idea is to guide less closely and let what is visibly happening shape the outcome.
