Emily Carr and Judith Wright: bearing witness through art, autobiography and friendship
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Canadian painter, Emily Carr (1871-1945_ and Australian poet, Judith Wright (1915-2000) bore witness through live art to the devastating impact of colonisation on the lives and cultures of indigenous people. Both art and artist have, in each case, accrued iconic status within their respective nations, not it must be said without a fair share of criticism directed toward the very notion of bearing witness and the form that witnessing tool. Of particular interest to me is the degree to which their interest in, attitude toward, and sympathy for indigenous peoples shaped their sense of themselves, both in terms of the importance and influence of an indigenous (female) friendship on their lives; and how we might understand the meaning and affect of this kind of witnessing.

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.
