This has got
to be a gag, but what's its origin?

I don't have graphics, but I think most of the
picture you're
talking about is a nuclear sub's reactor/electrical/steam control
panel that's on display in the Smithsonian, with a DECwriter
and guy and TV screen photoshopped on top. Am I too far off?
Yeah, but it makes for a helluva game controller
ISTR that Decwriters had a slot at the bottom for paper, and will tend to
jam if you try to front-feed them like that.
