The magic of rhythm

The importance of rhythm in the latest texts of Antonin Artaud written in an invented and incantatory language invites us to extend the scope of our understanding of this phenomenon. And it is particularly surprising that contrary to what one might imagine, the simple word of rhythm is far from representing a universal definition easy to access. This has led many authors to give the name a more accurate and satisfactory definition, but it is only by following the path that Artaud spawn had influenced in our mind that we could reach a magical definition of this term. It is for sure that the magic of rhythm connects the beliefs of a primitive culture to the most recent contributions of the humanities in this research.
