Abstract
Maracatu Rural is a type of folk play with improvised verses performed in northeastern Brasil. Nowadays it has become one of the main attractions of pernambucanian carnival after decades of social struggle for wider national recognition within the context of Afro-Brazilian music. The poets are verbal representatives to outsiders. They have three culturally accepted options to choose from: to improvise freely, chant internalized lines, or combine these two elements. Both improvisation sites and the rhyme schemes affects the poets decision to either prepare or take performance risks (improvise). 
 The article discusses the close link between the art of improvisation of the poets as social agents and its situational context, depending on the cultural conditions, social position and individual development of each poet. It shows the interdependencies between a local folk play and supra-regional contexts such as the city, the state, the cultural industry or the media.

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
