Last Loosening
A cofounder of Dada and its enfant terrible, Walter Serner, whose demeanor has been called "a dance on the rim of a volcano," was a brilliant observer of society. Slightly revised later as he became disgusted with Dada, it forms the first part of this volume, its philosophical foundation.

It presents a playful "moral codex" to subvert the illusions and stereotypes underpinning society's views on morality and decency, attacking the contradictions between appearance and reality.
