This commentary on the collapse of civilization in four acts contains trace elements of Islamophobia, atheism, tabloid media, Mark Zuckerberg, moldy bread, demonstrators, migrant laborers, Egyptologists and scepticism. An extensive exploration of the transcendental questions of a metastasising civilization, presented through microscopic examples from Czech society. The society of excess and collapse, illustrated through the simplicity of children’s games on a playground. Seen from a voyeur’s vantage point on a balcony, children’s games reveal complicated issues of civilization’s entropy - naive creatures as metaphors for complex and complicated social mechanisms of power, control and subjugation.
