The Sorcerer as Apprentice: his Notes (The computer in/and teaching the craft of composition)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In order to highlight some of the transformations in the practice of composition that occur due to the introduction of computing, the author provides two texts in a special typographical format which he calls ‘parallel processing’. An allegorical story entitled Wolf-URL together with ensuing texts that deal with interpretations of the allegory, particularly in a section entitled Updaters, Update Now!, attempt to put forward a critical apparatus for dealing with documentation (and underlying ideologies) related to an enquiry, with its non-exhaustive findings, that the author conducted during the spring of 2007 into the transformation of the craft of musical composition since the 1970s. They include musings about the relationship between professor and student composer where the computer plays or does not play a role in the teaching process. The outlines of this enquiry are located in a section entitled Setup Wizard ; an assessment model is found in the Assessment Wizard. By means of this new print format, the reader will be able not only to speed up the reading experience and exchange valuable information between the multiple fragments, but will also be able to draw whatever implications seem fitting from the ongoing juxtaposition.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 teacher head, not a consensus.
