Generation protocol
A Wet Lab archival film close-up: a single idea-organ on a steel tray, gently held by gloved hands, its branching tendrils pressed through a real hexagonal honeycomb mold so every branch exits with the same shape. Deep near-black surrounds it, hard tube-amp key light, warm silver-gelatin colour. Ultraviolet appears only as one short row of glowing vials at the edge. Thin callouts label (1) VARIANCE GLAND, (2) ANCHOR MOLD, (3) OUTLIER TENDRIL. Bureau seal struck once lower right. Domestic prop: a stack of identical sticky notes tied with red thread. No faces, no gore. Output in exactly 1122 x 1402 px, 4:5 portrait ratio.
