Avoiding graininess (was: Exhibition of my photos using IJC in NY )

Nick,
 
first of all congratulations for your amazing work (from what I can see on
the web). Second, now you made me curious about what Joe may have taught you
to reduce apparent graininess in your photos :-)
Seriously, how can you get the same results without using levels or curves,
or using them less than you would?
 
Alessandro

 <snip> 

 ... after working on the photos with Joe at Bowhaus on the NY exhibition in
the 
last month, he taught me so much about avoiding graininess (I had
been using Levels way more than I should have, incurring unecessary 
grain) that all the photos from the NY exhibition have been pretty 
much re-worked from scratch and look much better/less grainy.
