Spectators move freely around the site, creating their own routes or relaxing on loungers as they choose. The musical-visual composition, in collaboration with Jany Jérémie and Toni Casalonga, involves organizing the assembly to enhance the dialogue between resonance, space, and temporalities; anticipating walking speed and the time it takes the audience to stop and listen, and the blind sections. The artmusic festivals also include roaming "Windmills," performers, dancers, and actors who emphasize the musical space, organize blind sections, impress images, and tell stories.
