"description": "A low-resolution, grainy iPhone 3G video recording of an old CRT television screen. On the screen, a man’s face is shown in close-up, but it looks uncanny — half-human, with cybernetic implants, blinking cables, glowing synthetic eyes, and robotic jawlines. The CRT display shows scanlines, chromatic aberration, ghosting, and VHS-style static distortion. The room is dimly lit, with reflections and flickers on the TV glass.",
