Abstract
The aim of this paper is to describe Xenakis’s ways of implementing his music immersion. The literature overviewed indicates that the concept of immersion, which is so important to the contemporary audio-visual art, implies a state of deep mental involvement in which the person’s experience disassociates from the consciousness of the physical world due to an alteration in their attention state. Moreover, the concepts of “participation“, “absorption“, “total immersion”, and of a work – opus absolutum et perfectumare described as tools used by Xenakis to implement his sounds onto listeners.
