Prompt
Goal: Create a widescreen philosophical typography poster in a bold Chinese big-character-poster style, where the typography itself forms an ascending staircase-like composition and integrates a human silhouette. Canvas: 16:9 horizontal poster, dark navy-black textured paper background with subtle scratches, grain, faded fold lines, and vintage print wear. Use an off-white ink color for all main type, slightly distressed and roughened like screen-printed paper. Main typography: Fill most of the canvas with exactly 5 enormous blocky Chinese characters reading {argument name="main phrase" default="我思故我在"}. The characters should be custom geometric slab forms, extremely heavy, angular, architectural, and arranged from left to right with a gradual rising step rhythm: the first character lower and wide, the second taller, the middle characters higher, and the final character towering at the far right. Make the characters look like massive concrete structures or stairs, with rectilinear cutouts and negative spaces. The layout should feel intelligent and intentional, not standard font rendering. Figure integration: Place exactly 1 dark silhouette of a seated thinker inside the negative space between the third and fourth large characters, roughly lower center-right. The person sits hunched forward with one elbow on a knee and hand near the chin, evoking Rodin’s thinker pose. The silhouette should be the same dark color as the background, appearing carved out of the white typography. Small text elements: Add exactly 9 small typographic text groups around the poster: 1 small Chinese quote in the upper left reading {argument name="quote text" default="思想不是被肯定明的方式，而是使我们得以存在的理由。——笛卡尔"}; 1 bottom-left English title reading “COGITO ERGO SUM”; 1 small bottom Chinese translation group reading “我 思 故 我 在” and “RENE DESCARTES”; 1 bottom label reading “PHILOSOPHY EXHIBITION”; 1 bottom label reading “EXISTENCE IS NOT GIVEN. IT IS REALIZED.”; 1 bottom label reading “THINK. QUESTION. THEREFORE. BE.”; 1 bottom-right roman code reading {argument name="roman code" default="MMXXIV"}; 1 bottom-right copyright line reading “© ALL RIGHTS RESERVED”; and 1 minimalist phi-like circular symbol at the far bottom right. Keep all small text in condensed uppercase sans serif with wide tracking, thin strokes, and careful baseline alignment. Visual style: Minimalist brutalist graphic design, East Asian poster aesthetics, Bauhaus-inspired grid discipline, high contrast, cinematic negative space, off-white ink on deep blue-black, subtle paper texture, aged edges, no gradients except natural texture. The poster should feel like an art exhibition announcement about René Descartes and the phrase “I think, therefore I am.” Constraints: Use exactly the 5 large Chinese characters and exactly 1 seated silhouette. Do not add extra figures, icons, illustrations, or decorative objects beyond the 9 small text groups. Preserve the stark poster composition, monumental typography, and ascending stair-step structure.
