-How do distances sound like?
+When I open my hands as much as I can to both sides of my body – like a child spreading its arms untill it can’t any further, sayling: „Look, this is how big is an elephant!“ – I try to measure my surrounding: I am trying to depict a size of something that is there – but may not there in a touchable way– and I will try to show its dimensions with the means of my body.
+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.
