Walk through encoding three cards end to end.

Pick the three slots, fuse them into one absurd scene, and place it at a locus.

Suppose your system gives:

• 9♣ → Person: a clown
• 2♦ → Action: skiing
• Q♠ → Object: a chainsaw

Sequence 9♣ · 2♦ · Q♠ → a clown skiing while swinging a chainsaw — staged, say, crashing through your front door (the locus). To recall: at the door you see the clown (→ 9♣) skiing (→ 2♦) with a chainsaw (→ Q♠). Three cards recovered, in order, from one image at one place.
