Podcast cover for Episode #12 of "Future Knowledge" titled "Wayback Machine at 1 Trillion." The design features the portrait of guest Mark Graham. Surrounding the portrait are collage-style retro-futuristic elements, including a classical statue head, a vintage computer with the word "NEW" on its screen, a modernist observation tower, and abstract architectural shapes. The title uses bold, blocky typography, giving the cover a vintage sci-fi aesthetic.
