This research analyzes the social interactions between participants of trance festivals around contemporary environmental issues: man-nature-society-culture relationship. The life-styles and modes of expression related to the trance experiences are studied, highlighting human relations with nature and with society in an anthropological perspective of the present time. The theoretical, conceptual and methodological basis of the research is postmodern ethnography. The main instruments and research techniques used were field diary, active participant observation and novel-training. The results of the research make explicit: (a) the relevance of critical (postmodern) ethnography to research in environmental sciences due to the interfaces of dialogue between literature, invention and anthropological science and the reflection on authority in the production of scientific knowledge; (b) configuration of lifestyles of situational, irruptive, deferred and individuated characteristics among participants of trance festivals; (c) materiality of modes of expression as hybrid, experiential and deformed aesthetic. Lastly that trance festivals are important cultural territories of conjunction, affirmation and unification with nature in a dynamic of depth, saturation, negatricity and reinvention of social actors with the existential finitude and the expansion of consciousness towards nature, planetary life and Ecological problems.
