    "[CORE] Stretch a selected part of the image into broad horizontal optical afterimages while retaining a crisp primary focal contour. Trails belong to the subject rather than generic speed lines.",
    "[CORE] Use compact, extended geometric sans-serif typography, precise and quiet relative to the photographic subject; high contrast white on shadow or dark on light.",
    "[FLEX] Let subject scale, crop and focal placement change by concept, from intimate detail to architectural distance.",
    "[FLEX] Allow negative space and typography to respond to each silhouette, without imposing a fixed title or footer position.",
    "[FLEX] Adapt the optical distortion to the theme: sound pressure, lateral grip, folded flight or a threshold; keep the image sparse."
