Le Dirette del MicroMegaMondo
During the first Covid19 wave, during spring 2020, our lives were all turned upside down, being unable to gather, to go to work, and to spend time outside. Enzo Moretto, director of Esapolis museum in Padova, decided to bring together a few friends and colleagues and organise a series of live streams to talk about Nature, animals, and science. I participated for more than one year and the result is a long list of live streams, available on YouTube, will all sort of content regarding insects, photography, and nature in general.
