This paper explores the relationship between music, events, and transformative experiences in urban environments, arguing that certain musical and social settings facilitate individuation through aesthetic experiences that momentarily exit from normalized daily rhythms. Drawing on the anthropologists Michael Taussig, Ernesto de Martino and Eduardo Viveiros de Castro, it examines how aberrant forms of collectivity, such as the trance-inducing tarantella, suspend the strictures of contemporary capitalist norms, allowing for the release of hidden, entropic information. The collectivity of music can become a catalyst for transcending the quotidian, an aesthetic experience that might be identified as the ‘cybernetic sublime’. The experimental music events the author has organized in the Northeast Paris over the past 12 years have been attempts to put these strategies into practice, aiming to foster a resistant atmosphere that disrupts conventional concert venue settings. Strategic disorientation, efforts to demonetize, and the celebration of misunderstanding are key to encouraging an anti-colonial form of the cybernetic sublime, a collective experience of uncertainty across social, spatio-temporal, and technological systems, offering a brief but intensely collective potential for individuation that resists the dominance of capitalist experience.
