Six blurred backdrops off the FLUX lane — dusk backyard for the grill,
copper-hung splashback for the pan, steaming stockpot shelf for the
poach, butcher's tile for the steak board, pantry shelves for the eggs,
steel cold room for the fridge — and a lesson in frustums for their
integration. A far wall plane (the kitchen splashback trick) is
invisible to these stations' pitched-down cameras: at 45 degrees of
downward tilt nothing above the horizontal ever enters the frame. So
the art ships as the scene BACKGROUND instead — screen-space, swapped
in on enter() and restored on exit() — and the oversized 24x12 bench
slabs that covered every pixel shrank to real bench size so the room
can peek around them. The stations went from furniture in fog to
furniture in a kitchen.
Mechanics untouched by the slab diet — the drag planes are infinite
THREE.Planes, not the meshes: grill/pan/fridge/steak drivers all pass.

Twenty-two assets off the Cloudflare FLUX lane (scripts/gen-art-batch.sh
— idempotent, fixed seed per character, ~5s each, barely a dent in the
10k daily neurons):
- Thirteen regulars on their tickets, clipped into the corner like a
loyalty card photo: Deidre's floral cardigan, Ray's flat cap, the
child on tiptoes with a fistful of coins, the bloke from two doors
down in his dressing gown, the delivery mid-yawn at 6am, the lunch
rush as three impatient torsos, the pavlova order in her pearls. The
inspector's ticket uses his own portrait; a name with no face made
simply shows no frame (onerror removes it).
- THE MOTHER's jar rendered in all three states on the title button:
bubbling over the rim, sulking under grey liquor, and dead with a
tiny white surrender flag planted in the crust.
- Six dish heroes on the scorecard beside the ask: the skewers, the
pan, the sliced rib eye, the whites bowl, the poached egg mid-drip,
the benedict.
Verified live: pavlova portrait on day 20's ticket, benedict table on
21's, jar_sulking at gap 3, hero_eggs on the eggs scorecard.
