Kaleidoscopic, Zoom In-Out Points of View, Perspectives

Kaleidoscope : "Coined in 1817 by Scottish inventor Sir David Brewster,[1] the word "kaleidoscope" is derived from the Ancient Greek καλ(ός) (beauty, beautiful), είδο(ς) (form, shape) and -σκόπιο (tool for examination)—hence "observer of beautiful forms." (Wikipedia)

Can be likened to one's mind where a change of perspective,point of view or mindset can result in a change for the better, or getting oneself out of a rut. Sometime ago, I shook my kaleidoscope and look what happened (we (pair) bent the steel rod with our bare .... --- ask me with what?).

Zoom In Zoom-Out:
The big picture is composed of small and little pictures; the high-level is made up of low-levels. To effectively manage and handle the big picture, the high-level picture, knowing some or most of the little and low-level pictures is necessary. Zoom in to focus on the appropriate small pictures then zoom out to see the whole picture in relation to the small picture. Works both ways -- to better manage the small pictures, an understanding of the big picture is just as necessary, to put the small picture in the proper context.
