Helsinki, 1999: the “back room” where NFC was allegedly born
{
"input": {
"prompt": " Photo/illustration of a cramped, slightly grimy back room of a Finnish fast-food prototype kitchen in late-1990s Helsinki—stainless-steel counters, a humming fryer, laminated safety posters in Finnish, and a cluttered worktable lit by harsh fluorescent tubes. On the table: a chunky late-90s Nokia prototype handset, scattered screws and Torx bits, printouts with technical diagrams, and a fast-food chicken bucket with a conspicuously taped-on tag. Mood: documentary-serious, but with subtle absurdity."
