Each speaker will present the audience with, and then talk about, an image which tells an unexpected tale. There is, however, intentionally a catch. Given the panel’s title, it is of course no secret that the images will be designed to tell an unexpected story: you as a potential audience member will expect your expectations to be defied.</p><p> The panel will play off of this very idea. The speakers’ images will be shared in advance of the event with confirmed panel attendees, who will be invited to attempt to work out what the images’ stories are before the talk. This of course presents potential challenges for speakers. However, it is also designed to spark fruitful discussion and dialogue, not only about the stories that the images tell, but about topics such as whether the Internet leaves room for the element of surprise when attempting exercises like this.</p><p></p><h3>Accessibility:</h3><p>Thanks to the MCR disabilities representatives of Lincoln College for the following information about accessibility and the rooms in which Lincoln Leads 2022 is  planned to be held.
