ArtistA communication device made of rotting centipede tissue, black rubber, and yellowed plastic rests on an executive desk beside a memo pad. A calm office worker stands behind it with candle fingers and a waxen face. Front-facing advertisement scan, flat page layout, product display and circular seals. Clean corporate 1960's illustration style, faded paper, halftone dots, slight print misregistration. Product labels, coupon boxes, seals, side columns, and price bursts are filled with decorative symbol patterns, nonalphabetic pictographs, occult ornament marks, abstract glyph rows, strange printed icons, mysterious cryptographs, unusual hieroglyphic patterns, and unreadable catalogue texture. No readable language. All ad-copy areas are ornamental printed symbol patterns and abstract marks.
A detailed, full-body, high-angle shot depicts a man in a black business suit and white button-down shirt working at a wooden desk with a black monitor, keyboard, and an open notebook. The man's hands are positioned near a glowing white candle with a yellow flame, held in a yellow candle holder, illuminating a black centipede with red and white eyes. The centipede is connected via a black wire to an unseen device to the left of the monitor. Below the desk, a white sheet of paper is visible, adorned with various symbols, such as an old computer box in the top left, followed by "Cartrvm baines" in black text, then a string of acronyms and numbers, such as "CHORE WINAL COHENLD," "METRSM/3 MANNDES & BRECE," "PHET (C0010 GITI00)," and "OORE (TELLRITCOM)." "CENTOPED FOF CEPT+B1" is also prominently displayed in a black box. Below that, three circular seals or stamps are visible: the first with a stylized image resembling an old-fashioned computer chip or circuit board, the second with an asterisk
