Rapture: To be caught up or snatched away in ecstatic joy, delight, ecstasy, bliss or to be transported to another realm or sphere of being.
Rapture is duplicitous, two-faced, requiring either positive or negative induction and resulting in both bliss and impairment. Dangerous euphoria. Terrible beauty.
Rapture must be induced. It is the effect of a cause. Some methods of induction include love, drugs, nitrogen narcosis (rapture of the deep), sex, art/ music/ dance, faith/ religion, illness/ sensory/ sleep deprivation. It is these seven means that are explored through individual vignettes of puppetry and song in Rapture Study in Seven Songs.
