Week 12 Lab: The gallery

Week 12 lab, the final gallery, where each setup goes up and its owner defends it to the room

10 May 2027

The last lab, and the one the whole semester was rehearsing for.

Before the lab#

Bring the finished rice, reproducible from your repository, the composed screenshot and its defence, and the time audit.

In the lab#

Each setup goes up in turn. You present, you defend, and the room asks the questions a photograph cannot field: why this manager, why this palette, what the empty module was avoiding. A rice that only ever sat behind glass has to survive being talked about. We close by reading each desktop back to its owner as the portrait it is.

Afterwards#

You leave with a defended body of work, a semester of feedback behind you, and permission, at last, to stop configuring.
