Bottling Laughter by the Jar

A tall brick building in a town of rooftops houses a factory that bottles laughter. The top floor is a theatre with a curtained stage, a podium of bottles and an audience cheering and laughing, with theatre masks and balloons above. Below, on the left, scientists in white coats mix big jars of grains beside shelves of labelled glass jars and wall charts of laughter graphs. To the right, workers fill bottles at a pipe-and-tap counter under posters reading Pocket Giggles. On the bottom left, a woman carries a basket of sweets to a counter beneath a painted wall of laughing people. In the middle, a group sits round a curved table under moustache decorations, and on the right tall tanks with blue tiled floors hold waves of sound. Checked, tiled and wavy floors sort each room into its own piece.
