A distressed white appliance door with a frosted glass window oozing melted wax frames a DIY projector made from a metal can and camera lens, mounted with a circular saw blade. A lit purple candle perches on top, with a scuffed tennis racket and a black vinyl record strapped behind. Blue light shines through the textured glass while soot specks and tape reinforce the rough, salvaged, post-apocalyptic aesthetic.

A scavenged white appliance door, its frosted window glowing blue, anchors a DIY projector built from a tin can, taped camera lens and a circular saw blade mount. Melted paraffin streams over chipped enamel while soot and scratches age the surface. A lit purple candle, black vinyl record and scuffed tennis racket add tactile, found-object layers. Cool blue light, warm wax and raw steel define a gritty post-apocalyptic media room.
