Abstract
This article examines issues of performance in relation to Jerry Alfred and the Medicine Beat, a band led by the Northern Tutchone (indigenous) singer-songwriter, Jerry Alfred from Canada's Yukon Territory, adjacent to Alaska. Like many Yukon musical ensembles, this is an eclectic combination of individuals trained in First Nations traditional, classical, jazz, cabaret, country and rock music. The author demonstrates that performance is best understood, not in and of itself, but in the in-betweens of many events, each re-placed by the next. Three types of 'in-betweenness will be considered: the way in which this group is viewed by its members vis-à-vis other groups in which they play, the way in which different performance sites and audiences mediate performance, and the way in which their commodified performances (3 CDs to date) and live enactments inform one another.

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 it
