101 advanced JSON image-generation prompts (Gemini 2.5 Flash / 'Nano Banana') for the ENTROPY OS concept-art book, organized by function: - 00_art-direction: the visual canon (_ART_DIRECTION.md), JSON _TEMPLATE.json, worked _EXAMPLE.json - 01_key-art (9), 02_characters (16), 03_environments (14), 04_ui-menus (12), 05_key-moments (16), 06_hardware-props (12), 07_branding-ephemera (12), 08_motifs (10) Every prompt is a self-contained Nano-Banana-ready paragraph plus structured fields (aspect ratio, master-palette hexes, lighting, composition, text_in_image, period-anachronism avoid list, model tips). One visual language: beige-and-grey dominant, one accent glow per image, teal reserved for the ominous, locked to 1998-99. art/README.md indexes all 101.

"prompt": "Still-life product photograph of doomed removable media, arranged like evidence on a dark desk under one soft overhead light. In the foreground, a small fan of 3.5-inch floppy disks in faded beige and grey plastic (#c0c0c0), metal shutters scratched, hand-written labels yellowing and peeling — one reads 'BACKUP — DO NOT TRUST', another 'TAXES 98 (FINAL) (FINAL2)'. Beside them, a single thick blue-black ZIP cartridge, its label half-filled in ballpoint, leaning against a chunky data-backup tape in a translucent caddy whose worn label is stamped 'GUARANTEED UNREADABLE BY THE NEXT DRIVE'. Dust films everything; a coffee ring stains the desk under one corner; the labels' ink has gone brown with age and cigarette smoke. The only colored accent is a faint amber CRT spill (#ffb000) leaking in from an off-frame monitor, catching the curl of a peeling label and the edge of the tape — a warning-colored glow on objects already lost. Painterly catalog-realism, matte filmic finish, degraded-scan grain, scanlines, slight chromatic aberration, deep shadow around the lit cluster. Beige, grey, and grimy blue-black dominate; amber is the lone whisper of color. Mood: nostalgic dread, archival grief — a small museum of data that will not come back, photographed with the tenderness of going through a dead relative's drawers.",
