“Every child knows by whirling around itself, the way to access a centrifugal state of dispersion and lurching in which the body only finds its balance and the perception of its sharpness with difficulty. There is no doubt that the child does this for play and finds pleasure in it.”
(from “Games and Men” by Roger Callois)
Ilinx ( spasm, trance, bewilderment that undoes reality with dizzying precipitation)
is a contemporary music and circus show based on the interaction between musical trance and acrobatic vertigo that generates a hypnotic tension between form and its dissolution in an atmosphere of temporal suspension.
