Sumario:The article presents reflections on the concept of death and its value as a device that intervenes in the potency of the scenic bios, thus evoking a body that transcends time and space.The work dialogues with philosophical thought on ideas such as the scenic body, life, and death in theater. It then articulates these reflections with the author's personal experience in the Bridge of Winds group and with his participation at Ghent University in Belgium. There, in collaboration with researcher Adriana La Selva, the use of technology offered possibilities for recording exercises and expanding the concept of presence, including the creation of avatars. Ultimately, the experimentation raised questions about what it means to exist in this threshold between the real and the virtual.In this way, the author seeks to discuss death within the field of the arts, where the body is constantly shaped by technologies and systems that transmute the essence of the living body in a creative state.
