Suggested colors: black, white, newsprint grey, one red accent.
Composition: chaotic layering; no clear hierarchy.
Atmosphere: absurdist, provocative, anti-establishment.
Keep out of the design: polished corporate layout, harmonious colour schemes.

ILLUSTRATION NOTES
A typewriter, a bicycle wheel, and a torn mouth stacked down a tall newsprint column.
These notes guide the imagery; do not print them as text.

This will be viewed on a phone: keep the event name very large, use few words at a large size, and leave generous margins. Keep supporting details readable with clear contrast.
