Wet Lab, a minimal silver-gelatin close-up of a small video camera with a translucent spinal cord of memory capsules grafted to its rear plate. Two gloved hands steady the camera over a real hex-lattice steel tray; its lens faces a dim shifting monitor that holds one continuous room rather than separate frames. Cold teal grade, hard single-source light, deep near-black around the apparatus, and one short phosphor-green band from monitor tubes. Numbered callouts identify 01 GLOBAL STATE, 03 MEMORY GANGLION, and 06 REFLEX GATE. A tiny wind-up kitchen timer sits beside the tray, quietly absurd. One circular Bureau seal is struck lower right.
