Dense Caption

Six purple rectangular blocks display pixelated uppercase text 'ALAWT' against a solid black background. The blocks are positioned at varying horizontal and vertical offsets: top-left block (x1=329,y1=5,x2=670,y2=98), top-right block (x1=664,y1=99,x2=999,y2=196), bottom-left block (x1=0,y1=685,x2=329,y2=782), center-bottom block (x1=329,y1=783,x2=664,y2=880), and two right-side blocks (x1=664,y1=881,x2=999,y2=978). All text uses a uniform pixelated font with black letters on purple backgrounds. No animation or motion is visible in the static image.
