While LxD2025 is a fully in-person conference, seven works were exceptionally accepted as pre-recorded presentations. After thoughtful consideration, this special format was permitted only for two well-justified reasons: unexpected serious health issues and authors prevented from travelling due to unforeseen political changes. The presentations will be available for viewing throughout the three days of the conference.  In the spirit of design education Intertwinia, all delegates are encouraged to watch these works, while also reflecting on how unexpected circumstances can shape the ways in which we intertwine as a community.
