Field notes
The build notes describe geometry assembled from boxes, cylinders, lathes, and tubes, with sign lettering drawn into a canvas atlas. A wet-street shader pipeline adds reflections and refraction, followed by bloom, halation, grain, and other image effects. The page says the scene runs from 23:00 to 05:30, with signs going dark after 3 A.M.; it also explicitly notes that every depicted business is fictional.
