— BALLADES FOR THE DEAD CULTURE & SOCIETY — “You will be worthy of the spectacle, as the spectacle is worthy of you”, Petronius said to his crazed emperor, as the other sang ballades using burning Rome as a background of his art. Today’s empty rhetorics, crocodile tears and blind sentimentalism mark almost all of world’s politicians talks. While the world behind their patted backs is disintegrating in unprecedented criminal, political, economic and ecological crisis ignited by them. Similar cries to emperor Nero’s, humanity has uttered in the ends of all great civilisations, before they crumbled away and been devoured in anarchy. Faced with a horrible sight of the corruption and crime eating the society from inside, only what was left fit to do then was to grab a lyre, or a harp, and sing ballades in front of flames. https://youtube/watch?v=9yUqiKk9T00
