Bibliographic record
Abstract
Few people have sated the world's aesthetic palate as the have done since the 1950s. On 30 September 1953 Star displayed a photograph of a mural north of Pretoria under the heading Decorative Native Art, in 1955 Moss reported on the Master craftswomen of the Ndebele and Brincker in 1961 called them the Kleurrykste Bantoestam in Transvaal ((The) most colourful Bantu tribe in the Transvaal), to name a few of the early references. women in ritual attire became inspiration for painters such as Alexis Preller. Architects in particular also became involved. The University of Pretoria architect A.L. Meiring made the his own with no less than five articles between 1949 and 1954; University of Cape Town scholar, Barrie Bierman, did so in 1955, and internationally acclaimed Spanish architect Pancho Guedes (Les Mapogga) followed with an article in 1962.

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.
