Draft: Add plain-language writeups and demos for the projects #6

Description

@kcarnold

Draft proposal for the summer student backlog — open for the director's review before anyone picks it up. Suggested label: content.

Why

Right now the research is communicated mostly through academic abstracts on the Publications page and a single screenshot on the home page. There's no accessible, plain-language explanation of what the tools do or what we learned — the kind of thing a prospective student, collaborator, or family member could read and understand.

What to add (any subset is a useful contribution)

  • A short, jargon-free "what this is and what we found" summary for each project, written for a general audience.
  • A demo: an annotated screenshot series or a short screen-recording / GIF of the writing tool in action (the home page currently has just one static image).
  • Optionally, a simple "news" or "updates" section for milestones (e.g. "published at In2Writing 2025", "now integrated with Google Docs").

Notes

  • Demos can live in public/ and be referenced from the relevant project page.
  • Pair this with the vision-connection issue so the plain-language summaries also carry the "think better, not faster" framing.

Done when

  • At least one project has a plain-language summary and a demo (image series or clip).
  • Reviewed/approved by the lab director.
