artilands02, v8s, In a forgotten desert city, decaying spires of metal and cracked stone jut from the sand like broken antennae, flickering with the dying pulse of obsolete tech. Once-futuristic skyscrapers now stand as glitching holographic ghosts of themselves—outlined in faint, unstable neon pinks and electric blues that sputter like failing cathode rays. Dust-choked streets hum with corrupted signals, broken signage buzzing in alien symbols and retro synthwave hues. The horizon stutters like a paused VHS frame—sandstorms loop and skip in pixelated static, briefly exposing skeletal monorail tracks and shattered chrome towers. Muted sunlight filters through a haze of analog distortion, bathing everything in an eerie, VHS-burned glow. Somewhere deep in the ruins, a low synth drone hums eternally, as if the city itself is trying to reboot.
