Capsule 05 — Motivation

Motivation and inspiration

Microaggressions in the night — What we don't see but what hurts. Direct testimonials from the scene.

"No means no. It's not an invitation, it's not a maybe."

This capsule traces the birth of the S.O.U.L. project, born from a real wound turned into a collective momentum. Following a tragedy experienced on the dance floor, a determination emerged to transform pain into a movement of awareness. Carried by the universal symbol of the lantern, it tells how music, ethics, and solidarity can illuminate the night. S.O.U.L. — Spirit of Underground Living embodies this shared light: dancing freely, safely, together.

Memorable quotes

"Harassment and intimidation on the dancefloor can lead to dramatic actions outside the dancefloor."

"Just because someone is kind doesn't give you the right to touch or kiss them."

Key points

  • Consent and absolute respect — "No means no," without ambiguity.
  • Impact on the community — misconduct on the dancefloor has real consequences beyond it.
  • Collective safety — every participant is responsible for the space they occupy.
  • Education and values — passing on codes of respect is essential.
  • Unifying symbol — the lantern as a shared light in the night.
  • Core concept: S.O.U.L. — Spirit of Underground Living.
