Macrocosom & Microcosm was a theory first concieved by an ancient greek philosopher named Democritus in the 5th Century.
Wikipedia - "Macrocosom & Microcosm is an ancient Greek schema of seeing the same patterns reproduced in all levels of the cosmos, from the largest scale (macrocosom or universe level) all the way down to the smallest scale (microcosm or sub-sub-atomic or even metaphysical level).
Basically what this means (i think) is there is a world within a world.
For example if you were walking past a local pond and observed a pair of ducks and thier ducklings, that is considered a family on a naturalist level with a human family. It triggers memories and thoughts of man-made entites.
Another example would be if you photographed two animals having intimate relations, such as rubbing one another, following in either's footsteps or trails or as simple as making eye contact.
