A mockup of a smartphone displaying an audiobook app that's playing 'Enshittification'. Next to it appears this text: 'This book - ostensibly about AI, but more broadly about the new world of hyper-capitalism and high tech - is stunning in its clarity and breadth of vision. In trying to keep some kind of grasp on what is going on in the world, I read Doctorow obsessively. —Brian Eno'

An aerial image of the planned city of Levittown, tinted light green. A circuit board bleeds through the open spaces on the town plan. Hovering over the town are Trump's disembodied, bloodshot eyes, in pouchy orange nests. Orange tentacles swarm over the town.

A king on a sumptuous, much elaborated throne; in one hand he holds a sceptre of office, in the other, the leashes for two fierce stone dogs that guard the throne. The king's head has been replaced with a character who was used as the basis for MAD Magazine's Alfred E Neumann. The new head sports a conical dunce cap. Behind the king is a UK Reform Party rosette. The background is an Egyptian temple, ganked from a Dore Old Testament engraving. The floor has been carpeted in sumptuous tabriz from the Ottoman court.

A meat grinder; disappearing into the top is a sad donkey dressed in Democratic Party livery; emerging from the bottom is a Trump-wigged elephant in GOP livery. The grinder bears an 'I Voted' sticker, with a ? added to the end of it. The background is a Dore engraving of a cloudy sky, tinted blue.
