This image depicts a functional, utilitarian corridor or service area within a large venue, identified as the AO Arena, Manchester, United Kingdom, based on legible text on a whiteboard in the background. The scene features two adult males. On the left, a man with a short beard and glasses, dressed in dark clothing, sits with his right leg crossed, absorbed in a smartphone held with both hands. To his immediate left, on a small white table, rests a white disposable cup and a black handheld radio. A white portable electric heater is positioned near his feet. On the right, a second man with a balding head and dark top, wearing a lanyard, sits in a wheeled office chair. He is looking towards the left with a slight smile, his hands positioned in front of him. A round silver table with a plastic water bottle separates the two individuals. The environment includes white brick or blockwork walls. The ceiling features a complex network of large metallic ventilation ducts (some insulated), exposed cable trays, and electrical conduits. Some ducts display red and blue triangular markings. The floor is grey concrete, marked by a prominent dark crack or seam running down the center. In the background, behind the man on the right, is a cluttered office desk, large black electrical cabinets with yellow warning labels, and a white whiteboard with handwritten notes pertaining to event production, including "MANCHESTER ARENA," "LIGHTING," "SOUND," and power specifications (e.g., "125A"). A large black trash bin overflowing with plastic-bagged waste, a brown cardboard box, and a smaller white portable fan heater are also visible on the right. Overhead industrial lighting fixtures illuminate the space.
