Abstract
Starting with a reflection on silence, which is a sonic form of shadow, we evoke the birth of a rumor. Not the rumor that slanders or denounces, but that of the first song of the bird that announces and prefigures the arrival of the first light. The dawn. Protecting this silence so that the dawn can come. Using several textual sources, identify through sensation what it might be like to await the rumor, what might provoke its emergence, its emergence, like the sudden appearance of a star that had been eclipsed. Its emergence from the shadows and the blindness that accompanies it. Otherwise known as inspiration.
