Abstract
The monumental statues of the Canadian small town are a well-recognized folk art form. Communally sponsored and constructed, town monuments announce the presence of a local social system and are the symbolic expression of some key aspect of a settlement’s social life. Stylistically diverse and varied in subject, they speak of nature, history, ethnicity, economic activity, the regional origins of townspeople, and the achievements of residents. In some sense sacred, town monuments may commemorate an ancestral pioneer population or venerate a cultural heritage, a prized articulation with the land, or a characteristic occupation. More than mere tourist attractions, town monuments make perceptible an intangible set of social relations and are sites for various community events and celebrations. Proclamations of identity are encoded in town monuments, and the structure of signs that results from the creation of each is ultimately a system of totemic representation. Collectively, town monuments facilitate the appreciation of local difference along with a concomitant recognition of the shared presence of community and have come to establish thereby a contemporary form of totemism.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
