ABSTRACT
Imagine – waking up in a narrow hull of a solar catamaran, in a cove of the Rhine River near the German/Dutch border, on a foggy October morning. The air is filled with bird voices. When I crawl on deck I see thousands of wild geese, taking off in groups for their flight south, flying in V-shape formation. Or imagine a clear night on the Atlantic. The dog star is so bright that its light is reflected like a golden ribbon on the dark velvet of the ocean. Suddenly a splashing sound – a dolphin’s back emerges. The animal is dancing around our boat. Where it passes fluorescent algae are lighting up – microgalaxy floating in the dark waters.
