Now we need an interview with the set designer(s) for those scenes, so we can find out what they were thinking!

"Hm, we needed some decoration that sets the tone. So let's put some old fashioned boxes on shelves, only books will bore the viewer."?

But sometimes, the "decoration" is the thought—in the Zettelkasten as in design, it's not just about signaling meaning, but shaping it. And the “set” isn’t just visual—it’s epistemological. How we frame a question already begins to answer it. You see: Every single word, every box, could be elaborated on.
