Stasis is a peculiar state of body and mind : it operates beyond ecstasy and is a kind of perceptual decision flow close to that of physical death. Stasis is also a metaphor often used in science fiction to describe a state in which the flow of time is suspended. It thus opposes the normal course of «things» and places the individual concerned outside the world. This theme is the starting point of an imaginary semantic world that would be organized in terms of perception around this stasis. The expression in music of a timeless state which would stand in opposition to the agitations of the world.
