This is the category for all the quasi-storyboards and other art associated with a screenplay written by Iago Faustus, called Auto-Icon. The arrangement of posts should show all the storyboards in sequence of publication, beginning with the most recent. The arrows at the bottom of the page are counter-intuitive as a consequence of theme organization. “Older Posts” advances the reader further in time, “Newer Posts” backwards.

INT. OSVALDO’S – NIGHT
Osvaldo’s is a slightly more louche version of an American chain restaurant, the sort of place where twenty- and thirty-somethings congregate after work to drink and hook up.
There are televisions over the bar, at least one of which is tuned to a cable news channel.
Joe, dressed much like the rest of the clientele, sits at the bar nursing a beer.
Toozie, dressed as if she is out on a date, carrying a small purse, sidles onto the barstool next to Joe. She places her purse on the bar.
TOOZIE
Hello, Joe.
JOE
Toozie.
The BARTENDER approaches.
BARTENDER
Anything for the lady?
TOOZIE
Glass of white wine, please.
BARTENDER
You two want anything to eat?
JOE
(to Toozie)
The boneless wings here are pretty good.
TOOZIE
Okay.
JOE
(to Bartender)
Double order of boneless wings, extra hot-sauce on the side.
The Bartender nods, then shuffles away to get Toozie’s drink and put in the order.

INT. OSVALDO’S – NIGHT
Joe leans forward conspiratorially toward Toozie.
JOE
Why do you say you know what goes on where I work?
Toozie reaches into her purse and pulls out her smartphone. She taps a few keys and then hands the phone to Joe to see.
It show a picture of Rosalie. Joe blanches.
TOOZIE
In case you’ve forgotten, that’s Dr. Rosalie Quisp. I believe she was a colleague of yours.
The bartender sets a glass of white wine in front of Toozie. She takes it and takes a sip.
TOOZIE
She was killed in some sort of industrial accident — unclear what kind, all the news media I could find were very vague about its nature.
JOE
It was tragic. We all liked Rosalie. What’s your point?
TOOZIE
Well, interestingly enough only one week after Dr. Quisp’s untimely demise, Oikos Galenou patents a compound that turns out to be the biggest medical miracle since penicillin.
Joe puts Toozie’s phone back on the bar.
JOE
A fortunate coincidence.
TOOZIE
Perhaps, Dr. Tucker. And a few years go by, and then there’s a terrorist incident, a really bad one, takes place. Something like six security guards were killed before the terrorists themselves were wiped out by a SWAT team. To this day no one, either from Oikos Galenou or law enforcement has been willing to comment in the news media about who these “terrorists” were or what they wanted.
JOE
Sometimes people play rough in industrial espionage.
TOOZIE
Yes, well, after that incident a mysterious artificial intelligence called the Mediatrix appeared. She…it?…let’s call her “she” puts her services to use solving an atrocious and long-running conflict.
JOE
I don’t see what you think that has to do with us.
TOOZIE
I would have thought nothing, until she gave that weird news conference prior to deactivating herself. She made a strange and possibly inappropriate set of references to sacrifices being made and how the long-suffering land of Stradanya was now in the “house of Galen.”
JOE
So that’s just weird.
TOOZIE
“Just weird,” until you think about the fact that “house of Galen” in Greek is Oikos Galenou.
JOE
Look, Toozie…
