Pré-Teaser "Hélix" Cie Si j'y suis Realeased beggining of 2023.

Let's explore at the border between reality and imagination.

Where does our imagination come from, what influences it and why this need for imagination? Is it an answer, a wall against our anxieties? A void to fill in the face of the present moment and reality?
How can dream and reality influence each other?

“Everything leads us to believe that there is a certain point in the mind from which life and death, the real and the imaginary, the past and the future, the communicable and the incommunicable, the high and the bottom cease to be perceived contradictorily. André Breton.

It is this tipping point that we plan to explore. Juggling with its suspensions, its instability and its possible diversions will be a gateway to this point. The universe provoked by the repeated, amplified, scratched sounds will transport us out of time and reality.

For this new creation, we have chosen to continue the research work around the sound of juggling bouncing balls and the work on the sound of objects undertaken during our previous show “Tic Tac Flop”.
To provoke the imagination, we will use the evocative power of music and sounds. We will rely on the sound universe released by the live stage actions (balls, objects and bodies) either broadcasted as such, or retransformed by Computer Aided Music.
We will also use the creation of sound loops like the repeated actions that punctuate our daily life.

“Lassitude is at the end of the acts of a mechanical life, but it inaugurates at the same time the movement of consciousness. » A. Camus « The myth of Sisyphus ».

Kafka's universe will be a starting point for us. The characters will leave their reality to find themselves in an unusual and confusing situation. Imagination will overwhelm reality.
