International audience ; Our performance explores the performative and hybrid dimensions of musico-scenic works through an interactive musical hypnosis session, carried along by the rhythm of a rap-accordion. It explores the boundaries between language, emotion and creativity, while also drawing on reflections on ‘complex thought’ (Morin, 2014), ‘transgressivity’ (Westphal, 2007) and ‘heterotopias’ (Foucault, 1984).The stage opens in an immersive atmosphere, where pulsating lights and projected motifs convey a space in perpetual motion. The breath of the accordion, mixed with gentle rhythms of sound and sight, envelops the audience and creates an introspective atmosphere.

True to its essence, this model is not just explored, but embodied (Varela et al., 1993): it enables this scenic experience to take shape. It provides a framework in which the senses are deterritorialised and the emotions are reterritorialised (Deleuze & Guattari, 1972). Invited to beat time or whisper words, the audience become co-creators, enriching the work in real time.Fusing tradition and modernity, the piece culminates in a contemporary composition where the real and the imaginary unite in a heterotopia, between meaning and eMOTions (Maturana & Varela, 1992; Jankélévitch, 2015).
