Broken Links Cybernetic Bust Poster

Broken Links Cybernetic Bust Poster
πŸ“ Prompt Template
Goal: Create a surreal vintage editorial poster about fragile digital connection, combining classical sculpture, exposed electronics, and distressed print design.

Canvas: Vertical poster in a 2:3 aspect ratio, aged warm ivory paper background with subtle stains, grain, scratches, and faint fold marks.

Main composition: Place a large broken classical plaster bust slightly right of center, cropped from head/shoulders down to a tapered broken lower edge. The bust is split open vertically, revealing dense dark circuit boards, chips, gold traces, copper wiring, and bundled cables inside. The plaster shell has jagged torn edges, cracks, dust, and chunks missing. A black 3.5 mm audio jack cable exits from the lower opening and hangs downward near the bottom center. The head has flowing stone hair on both sides; part of the face is absent or hidden by the rupture.

Winged elements: Add exactly 2 detailed bird wings integrated with the bust: one large upward wing rising from the upper right shoulder area, and one smaller horizontal wing extending to the right behind the lower hair mass. Scatter small plaster shards and feather-like fragments around the wings.

Left typography: Set a tall narrow serif headline on the left in an elegant high-fashion editorial style. The headline reads exactly: β€œWE ARE ALL JUST BROKEN LINKS”. Arrange it in stacked lines; most words are black, while β€œBROKEN” is large distressed red and partially interrupted by the central obstruction.

Obstruction / overlay: Add exactly 1 large opaque rectangular overlay in the center-left foreground, covering part of the headline and the left side of the bust. The rectangle is muted gray-beige, with a tiny old Windows-style blue title-bar corner and a small close button visible near its upper-right edge, suggesting a crashed dialog window. Do not add readable dialog text inside the rectangle.

Technical diagram background: Overlay thin drafting lines, registration marks, circles, rectangles, dotted construction guides, small black nodes, and measurement-like geometry across the paper. Keep these diagrams subtle and low contrast, with a few small rust-red square accents.

Visible small text elements: Include exactly 9 discrete text elements: 1) the large headline β€œWE ARE ALL JUST BROKEN LINKS”; 2) β€œfig. 23.” near the top; 3) a small paragraph reading β€œAn inquiry into the fragility of connection in a fragmented digital age.”; 4) a small red rule below the paragraph; 5) β€œDISCONNECT TO CONNECT” in tiny red text; 6) β€œ07-95”; 7) two-line terminal text β€œexist.exe” and β€œnot found”; 8) β€œfig. a.” near a lower-right diagram; 9) β€œfig. b.” beneath it. Use small, sparse, letterpress-like typesetting.

Style: [visual style], museum-specimen meets cyberpunk anatomy, muted monochrome stone, black ink, antique paper, oxidized copper, and dark circuit-board greens. Highly detailed, tactile, cracked plaster, realistic electronics, etched illustration texture, distressed print.

Customizable text: The main headline may be [headline text]. The small paragraph may be [caption text]. The main subject may be [central subject]. The accent color may be [accent color].

Constraints: Keep the composition asymmetrical with strong negative space on the left, no modern glossy UI except the tiny old dialog-window detail, no photoreal human skin, no extra wings, no extra large text, no watermark.
