The computer room of a shipyard in southern Sweden late on a light summer evening, low golden sun through a tall window with the plain red hull of a tanker on the slipway outside, four light grey tape units, each behind a glass window with two open reels turning above a white head block, each cabinet front plain and unmarked, in front a sloping light grey console with small rectangular display windows and groups of blank keys, a typewriter with blank fanfold paper falling behind it, a hand in a rolled white shirt sleeve lifting a reel of tape from its clear plastic case, a row of tall grey cabinets soft behind.
