Part II · The feel

How it feels

The details organizers don't always put in the description — pulled from the room, the crowd, and what people remember afterward.

The room

Library rules. Whispers and a calm body — this is not a talking-out-loud room.

The crowd

Easy to come alone. A little clapping, maybe a question answered — nothing that puts you on the spot.
