{subject}, in the style of Surimono Signal: a flat woodblock print interrupted by digital signal corruption. Render every form with bold near-black sumi ink contour outlines and flat poster color planes with no gradients, {palette}. Slice the image with deliberate horizontal scanline bands, ghost the contours with misregistered RGB color-channel offset, and shear a few edges with hard-edged clipped horizontal displacement glitches. Flat woodblock grain on warm paper, confrontational brutalist clarity, asymmetric poster composition. Fill the entire frame edge to edge, no text, no whitespace, no border.
Slot recipes
hero — A single dominant subject filling the frame edge to edge, heavy sumi contours and three flat color planes, one wide scanline band and a clipped horizontal shear across the midline, RGB registration offset on the silhouette; wide quiet paper margin on one side for asymmetric poster gravity.
feature — A mid-distance subject in flat woodblock planes, contours emphatic, a thin scanline band over one region and a subtle channel offset on the edges; restrained, legible, one accent plane dominant.
avatar — A tight head-and-shoulders or single-object crop, bold contours, two flat color planes, one short clipped displacement glitch across the eyes or center line, minimal background plane.
empty-state — A small lone subject low in the frame with generous flat parchment negative space, faint scanlines only, one whisper of channel offset; calm, sparse, print-inspired stillness.
illustration — A denser narrative scene of layered flat-plane subjects, multiple scanline bands at different heights, several clipped horizontal shears and visible registration ghosting, asymmetric composition with one color field dominating.

Do
· Render every form with bold, continuous near-black ink contours before any color.
· Keep color planes flat and poster-like in vermilion, indigo, pine green, and parchment.
· Place glitch artifacts deliberately: a few decisive scanline bands and clipped horizontal shears.
· Ghost the contours with a small RGB channel registration offset to imply print misregistration.
· Let one color field dominate each image and reserve quiet paper space for asymmetric gravity.
· Keep the woodblock paper grain warm and subtle under the flat planes.
Don't
· Do not use smooth gradients, soft shading, blur, or glassy depth.
· Do not let glitch become random illegible damage; it is designed structure.
· Do not wallpaper the frame with scanlines or offsets until the subject is lost.
· Do not add ornamental faux-Japanese motifs or realistic lighting.
· Do not center everything; the technique depends on directional tension.
· Do not embed text, captions, or watermarks.
