Field notes
Attendees were asked to arrive with a researcher persona and handmade name tag, bring a question for Sanjoli, and supply their own cake; the notice calls it a bring-your-own conference. The schedule moves from an icebreaker and keynote through paper presentations, Q&A, reflections, and a closing cake session. The page says the event has concluded and links to presenter slides.
