Abstract
Afin de servir d'introduction aux initiatives historiques de conservation de documents audiovisuels qui ont eu un impact sur les politiques et pratiques contemporaines au niveau fédéral canadien, ce texte trace les efforts des mili tants archivistes qui ont conçu un cadre de travail ayant permis de ne sauvegarder qu'un petit pourcentage des œuvres d'art médiatiques indépendantes au Canada.Il est important de comprendre les principales questions à l'origine de la crise de la conservation qui menace l'avenir même des œuvres d'art médiatiques dans notre histoire collective canadienne.ABSTRACT As an introduction to historical preservation initiatives on behalf of audiovisual documents that have affected contemporary policy and practices at the federal level in Canada, this paper documents the efforts of archival activists who have built a framework that has helped safeguard only a very small percentage of Canadian, independent media artwork.It is important that contemporary activists, be they archivists, artists, or policy administrators, understand the key issues that have created the preservation crisis that currently threatens the future of Canada's independent media artwork in our collective history.

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.
