A wood-panelled basement playroom in New Jersey on a winter evening, a braided rug on linoleum, a small lit tree soft in a corner, a wooden television set glowing, on its screen under a translucent green sheet two white blocks and a small point of light, on the rug a flat game console forty centimetres square, a white rim, a black textured top in a T shape, a narrow wood-grain strip, a black plug-in card in its front slot, two white box-shaped controllers on beige cables, each with brown knobs on both sides, two children's hands turning the knobs, red and blue chips and white dice scattered.
