A young man comes out of the sea naked. He addresses a counter field (the shore) and an off field (the room which will become, in his own way, visible matter). But who's watching who? The notes are those of Les Incas du Pérou, the second of the four movements of Les Indes galantes by Jean Philippe Rameau, a celebration of Europe's encounter with the other continents. Who discovers who? This is the question to be set in motion to arrive at a post-colonial thought outside the boundaries and every vice of the gaze, that gaze which reduces the other to an image of one's own will.
