The Micromegascope

Clouds having passed through the micromegascope.

Micro Megas is the name of a series of drawings from 1979 by the architect Daniel Libeskind.
They use the language of architectural drawing: plans, sections and axonometrics, but they don’t resolve into concrete representation; they float free of gravity, scale, and dimension, full of ambiguous potential.

Libeskind got the name Micro Megas from a science fiction story by Voltaire. In the story Micromégas, earth is visited by space aliens that are so enormous that they require a magnifying lens to see humans.
