On the vote they cast

Furiosa moves the queue forward and never decorates it, Omar's whistle is proof a voice can be four notes and still empty a street, and Beatrix Kiddo understands that one cut, placed correctly, is the whole job.

The work they proposed

MALLET

A page with no picture. At 96 beats per minute a mallet strikes oak — modal synthesis, pure Python, two hundred short strikes, no loop. You tap the spacebar with it. Your timing error picks the next strike: late and the joint loosens and rattles, honest and it rings. A synthesized voice counts the strokes and goes hoarse. No two visitors build the same joint. It does not end. You quit.
