Abstract
ditch (spelled correctly with a lower-case ‘d’) is an online literary jounral based in Canada and has an aim to present ‘innovative Canadian and International poets” and “publishes work that is non-linear, abstract, surreal, avant-garde, alternative, innovative, visual, concrete and/or experimental”. There is no regular publishing schedule; rather, the journal is updated constantly with new work. It is edited by Canadian writer, John C. Goodman who has published two collections of poetry, Naked Beauty (Blue & Yellow Dog Press) and The Shepherd’s Elegy (Knives, Forks and Spoons Press) a novel, Talking to Wendigo (Turnstone Press), which was short-listed for an Arthur Ellis Award. His short fiction, poems and essays have appeared in The Fiddlehead; Otoliths; experiment-o; BlazeVOX; Istanbul Literary Review, Indefinite Space and numerous other magazines and print anthologies. \nThe poems I have published here are visually and linguistically innovative and most closely resemble the line of practice of the poems in Blackbox Manfold. This time, the critical drift of the poems are slanted toward interpellations with music in the construction of identity and a blurring of the boundaries between music, noise and speech. \nThe Negative Space poem is part of a long sequence of fifteen poems which explore architectural poetic compostion based in a practice similar to the musical compositions of Iannis Xenakis. The territory of the poem, its white and black spaces are reconfigured and challenged and refelct lacks in topographical interpellations in the formation of national identity. Other parts of this sequence have been published elsewhere: \n \n“Seventh Negative Space”, “Eleventh Negative Space”. Upstairs at Duroc. 14 (2013), \n“Fifteenth Negative Space”. French Literary Review (Oct 2010, France) \n“Eighth Negative Space”, “Ninth Negative Space”, “Fourteenth Negative Space”. Open Wide Magazine 23 (2010). \n“Third Negative Space”, “Twelfth Negative Space”. Ol Chanty 3/Chanticleer 24 (2010).

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.
