Abstract
In this article, I discuss the work carried out by the employees of the MurambiMemorial, a site commemorating Rwanda’s genocide, to highlight how theirwork-related responsibilities creates an opportunity for the memorial’s visitors tohave an intelligible encounter with the seemingly incomprehensible presence ofhuman remains. I introduce the concept of the Labour of Care, which provides abasis to think about how the work carried out by Murambi’s employees bestowsupon the human remains their interpretable qualities. From this basis, I examinehow this concept provides a means to think about human remains not simply asmaterial objects, but rather, better understood as subject-come-objects. By doingso, visitors can move beyond idealized notions of redemption and think abouthumanity’s unsettling capacity for violence.

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
