Iron & Static, 1958 Detroit, film noir, a haunted, weary sound engineer with headphones, standing in the cavernous, shadowy interior of an abandoned automotive factory, surrounded by decaying machinery. Static and distorted waveforms visually emanate from the machines and swirl around him, partially forming ghostly, fragmented images of industrial accidents - crushed metal, falling figures, sparks. A single, bright, pulsing red radio dial glows in the background. The city skyline is visible through broken windows, shrouded in smog and rain. Moody lighting, high contrast, grainy texture, evocative of 1950s film photography. Tagline: "The city remembers."
