Derived Play: Ice Core Relay

Prompt text

Make a single public-gallery image: an original derived-play challenge called ICE CORE RELAY, built from the cold-storage cabinet idea. Format is a wide 16:9 cinematic photo of a frosted lab bench with three vertical sample racks, sliding freezer rails, insulated token pucks, color-ring keys, thaw-window lenses, crop sleeves, and a small score thermograph. It must not be a board game, card spread, grid, poster, arcade cabinet, corridor, machine cutaway, press, loom, mosaic, receipt, sand table, patch panel, planetarium, film set, weather room, or tabletop route map.

Gameplay is visible without people. Six stations are integrated as cold handling actions with short engraved labels:
- freeze draft: choose one transparent sample tube and lock an invented object silhouette into the first layer.
- thaw window: place a warm lens token to edit exactly one harmless patch.
- frost whisper: read tiny fictional labels through frost before time runs out.
- sleeve swap: slide square, tall, wide, and banner sleeves over the same ice core while keeping the subject centered.
- bubble wager: predict which trapped-bubble texture best matches a prompt clue.
- ring audit: align colored edge rings for revision, safety, and source before the thermograph reaches zero.

Show pucks moving in a relay path across freezer rails, but not as a printed board; the path is made from real metal grooves, frost shadows, and condensation trails. Use abstract invented objects only, no people, no brands, no real places, no famous characters. Palette: cold cyan ice and stainless steel with coral, lemon, mint, and graphite accents. Crisp legible short labels, premium macro product photography, tactile frost, safe original content, no politics, no adult content, no graphic violence, no dangerous instructions, no watermark.
