Ethics, Intention, and Affect: A Proprioceptive Poetics in Roy Miki’s Mannequin Rising
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In Mannequin Rising , poet Roy Miki explores the active and ongoing constitution of the subject in order to consider how globalization and market forces are rewriting the spaces we inhabit. Critiquing the commodification, appropriation and consumption of different forms of life, the poet situates the human body within a vast network of globalizing processes and in the array of human and extra-human infrastructures underlying them. In particular, Mannequin Rising suggests how a biopolitics of life – intent on policing, manipulating and mining the parameters of human life and human sociality – consumes and melds into the material world. Exploring Miki’s poetics, this article examines how Mannequin Rising channels a need to address the historical processes that shape a place, while being attentive to the body’s contemporaneity. As the text reflects, the frames of globalization are bound up with the legacies of colonialism and racialization. This article argues that Miki’s engagement with the body as a proprioceptive and affective entity creates space for the workings of memory and historical consciousness. In other words, a proprioceptive poetics represents the poet’s task of encountering and apprehending the world.

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.
