Means of transport have long been such an important part of human existence. He was a genius, so to speak, the one who invented wheels.

Key concept

We live by sensations, and flying (or the desire to be airborne) is a powerful stimulus, bolstering our sense of the high speed of life. Anyone having a flight of fancy knows it feels like taking off. Something usually referred to as "wings sprouting from my back."

The dragonfly steering a motorbike is a metaphor of someone flying through the vast surrounding space and bursting the bounds of the mundane.
