Armindo Bião (2008), Jean-Marie Pradier (1995) for the approach to Spectacularity, Theatricality, Cultural Matrices - Aesthetic Matrices, and Theoretical and Methodological Matrices in Ethnocenology, as Ethnoscience of Arts and Forms of Spectacle. Michel Maffesoli for Emotional Communities. In the study of the imaginary Paes Loureiro (2010) in his proposition of Semiotic Conversion as a conceptual key to understanding the poetics of Amazonian culture. For the Creative Processes approach, Sônia Rangel (2015) and Philip Hallawell (2010).
