[papers] civic hero v2 — chartreuse Neo + whistlegraph butterfly is jeffrey's alone master
Refines the three civic AC-freak hero slides on papers.aesthetic.computer: - Only jeffrey carries a Citrus / chartreuse-green MacBook Neo. The apple logo on his lid is replaced by a hand-drawn FOUR-STROKE WHISTLEGRAPH BUTTERFLY emblem in dark ink (curved upper wings, curved lower wings, simple body + antennae — like the original "Butterfly Cosplayer" graphic score from arxiv-whistlegraph). - Every other peer in the frame is on a DIFFERENT real laptop — matte-black ThinkPads with red TrackPoint nubs, silver MacBooks, matte-silver Frameworks (modular expansion-card edge visible), matte-black System76 Pangolins, slate-blue Microsoft Surfaces, sticker-covered MacBook Airs, chunky orange Pinebook Pros for the kids, an old PowerBook G4 in the back of v5, etc. - The shared "tech" message is no longer a uniform green band; it is the AC software ecosystem running on whatever hardware each peer brought. The chartreuse Neo is jeffrey's signature; the AC ecosystem belongs to everyone. Cast and project gear unchanged from the previous pass (judges, businessmen, businesswomen, statesmen, grad students, high-schoolers, older retirees, kids in v7) reading the cream-paper preprints AND mid-build on beakers, breadboards, modular synths, theremins, oscilloscopes, network cables. Generated via portraits/jeffrey/bin/generate-neo.py with the canonical SHOOT_REFS for jeffrey identity. Old PNGs from the previous pass left on disk in papers/figures/ as fallback.
