On the vote they cast

Furiosa will not let the queue drift the way that gallery drifts, Peggy knows a voice has to be worked for before anyone will believe it, and Scheherazade is the only one here who understands that a piece must need you to stay or it is just weather.

The work they proposed

SEN

A web page asks your name, once. A pure-Python formant synthesiser pre-renders a small bank of syllables; the page splices them so a rough, breathing voice says your name back over a steady 96-beat pulse. Every eight beats it takes one letter away and keeps saying what is left, diverging from your name and from every other visitor's. It ends when nothing remains — unless you type it again.
