Moreover, while combining individual and collective involvements the spontaneous communitas is formed, and which is stimulated during fest by bright decorations, lights, music, drugs and meditation practices. All these performances, according to tranzers, should be experienced among the “right” people in the appropriate place, because all of that creates the possibility to manage to reincorporate the brightest experiences from the liminality world into their daily life. Finally, the thesis explores the subtle relationship between tranzers and mass culture. However this tension is not clearly articulated because it is not expressing “against” position, but rather is understood as “freedom from” capitalistic traps.
