A dingy gray basement room, all concrete walls and sharp angles. Pipes run along the walls and across the ceiling. The room is oddly shaped, with various overhangs and a raised area that suggests a loading dock. There is a single dim white light that only emphasizes the darkness. Dominating the scene is a large display of six glowing red numbers, the kind you'd see on a clock radio. Ominously, this appears to display a countdown, with three seconds remaining. Below it sits a person tapping away at a laptop, staring at the white glow of the screen.

A faceless white figure sits in front of a glowing computer terminal. The terminal sits on a desk, which is inset into a vast, bulky structure that dominates most of the drawing, and appears to be made of flimsy cardboard or metal. The structure is a huge, featureless thing that, if it was more detailed, might be furniture or a machine. As it is, it's not clear at all what this thing is. It looms over both the computer and the person sitting in front of it, serving no obvious purpose. On the wall next to the person hangs an analog clock.

A large, high-ceilinged room with an old-style mainframe computer in it. The room is somewhat dismal, containing a wall clock, bucket, and mop. The computer has a data cassette on the front, and a steel-framed door and window below it. The computer has many large pipes coming out of it, as though it is a furnace. Below the computer room, in a basement area, the base of the computer extends into a large concrete fireplace with a fire burning brightly inside. The basement is dark; there's no light except for that cast by the fire. A figure stands next to the fireplace holding a shovel. The effect is of a large computer with a door that opens into a coal burning furnace below.

Two people approach a giant computer tower case in the desert. The tower is truly huge, appearing out of the haze and heat as though it were a pyramid.
