After naming Navigate, I find a definition of naviculoid:
(biology) Referring to a diatom, boat-shaped.
and read of
the state of flux of the current taxonomy and nomenclature of diatoms
(I return to this site one day later, to find the link no longer works.)
I reflect on Henri Bergson‘s notion of reality as time and space in flux, and on the first sea voyage with my father.
What prompted the animation was a swim in the sea with Meredith, who taught me how to float.
Animating after floating, thoughts and feelings merged, imagining myself navigating through the ocean of existence.
