Musing about distances (– from here, to there…; from my one hand, to the other hand… ) and then thinking about the size of things and how hard they are sometimes to percieve esp. when far away or largely sized, I quickly realized that I would like to find a way to translate such terms like meters and centimeters (– the metric system: a measuring system we used to learn, yet, often so intangible ) into terms that might be more abstract but still emotionally close to us: sounds. | Musing about distances (– from here, to there…; from my one hand, to the other hand… ) and then thinking about the size of things and how hard they are sometimes to percieve esp. when far away or largely sized, I quickly realized that I would like to find a way to translate such terms like meters and centimeters (– the metric system: a measuring system we used to learn, yet, often so intangible) into terms that might be more abstract but still emotionally close to us: sounds. | ||
