## Overview

Across the competition, I experimented with ways to let people explore long-form survey answers without reducing them to a few averages. The projects evolved from visual clusters to narrated perspectives and source-grounded conversations.

## Result

Placed second overall and received the $1,000 Hall of Fame prize in the four-round competition.
