Ce po\u00e8me audiovisuel aborde le concept de l’imp\u00e9n\u00e9trable, c’est-\u00e0-dire ce qui nous perturbe mais ne peut \u00eatre expliqu\u00e9 par la logique conventionnelle. Une calligraphie incompr\u00e9hensible, des textures qui flottent dans l’obscurit\u00e9, des fils enchev\u00eatr\u00e9s sur du papier, un corps dont le visage \u00e9chappe \u00e0 notre regard sont autant d’\u00e9l\u00e9ments qui sugg\u00e8rent une relation \u00e9troite entre l’\u00e9trange et l’imp\u00e9n\u00e9trable. \u00c0 la suite de Mark Fisher dans The Weird and the Eerie (2016), l’\u00e9trange est li\u00e9 \u00e0 l’inconnu et au myst\u00e9rieux : \u00ab\u00a0un sentiment que l’\u00e9nigme pourrait impliquer des formes de connaissance, de subjectivit\u00e9 et de sensations qui d\u00e9passent l’exp\u00e9rience commune\u00a0\u00bb. L’\u00e9trange n’existe que tant que le myst\u00e8re est incompr\u00e9hensible pour la logique. En d’autres termes, lorsque la r\u00e9alit\u00e9 ou la fiction se comporte de mani\u00e8re inexplicable, nous \u00e9prouvons une sensation troublante qui nous invite \u00e0 sp\u00e9culer ; cependant, l’\u00e9nigme demeure. Dans des fictions comme The Man in the Crowd, Edgar Allan Poe a pr\u00e9vu que m\u00eame les humains peuvent incarner un univers \u00e9trange qui r\u00e9siste \u00e0 l’examen, r\u00e9v\u00e9lant la nature m\u00eame du crime. La fascination que nous cause le myst\u00e8re de l’\u00e9trange et l’impossibilit\u00e9 de le scruter par la raison conventionnelle, ouvrent la porte \u00e0 l’imaginaire d\u00e9riv\u00e9 du fantasme, de la sp\u00e9culation, des hallucinations et du monde onirique. Un univers riche et vari\u00e9 qui est parfois consid\u00e9r\u00e9 \u00e0 tort comme une simple \u00e9vasion, et qui pourtant nous fait prendre conscience que la complexit\u00e9 du monde ne rentre pas toujours dans nos paradigmes cognitifs.<\/p>\n

This audiovisual poem delves into the concept of the inscrutable, or that which disturbs us but cannot be explained by conventional logic. Incomprehensible calligraphy, textures that float in the dark, tangled threads on paper, and a body whose face escapes our gaze are all elements that suggest a close relationship between the eerie and the inscrutable.\u00a0Following Mark Fisher in The Weird and the Eerie (2016), the eerie is related to the unknown and the mysterious: \u00ab\u00a0a feeling that the enigma might involve forms of knowledge, subjectivity, and sensations that lie beyond common experience.\u00a0\u00bb The eerie exists only as long as the mystery is incomprehensible to logic. In other words, when reality or fiction behaves in an inexplicable way, we experience a disturbing sensation that invites us to speculate; however, the enigma remains. In fictions like The Man in the Crowd, Edgar Allan Poe foresaw that even humans can embody an eerie universe that resists scrutiny, revealing the very nature of the crime. The fascination that the mystery of the eerie causes us and the impossibility of scrutinising it through conventional reason, open the door to the imagination derived from fantasy, speculation, hallucinations and the dream world. A rich and varied universe that is sometimes unfairly considered a mere evasion, and yet makes us aware that the complexity of the world does not always fit into our cognitive paradigms.<\/em><\/p>\n
