A Framework for Hybrid Multimodal Performances
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The boundaries between physical and virtual spaces are becoming more blurred in our everyday lives with the advent of wearable action cameras, virtual reality technologies, and algorithmicallyled audience interactions. Artists and creatives have been at the forefront of exploring these new technologies; however, little literature exists that reflects on best practices for navigating this new complex space. We reflect on our experiences in creating and participating in what we refer to as ‘hybrid multimodal performances’ or performances that blend physical and virtual spaces. We propose a framework of aesthetic choices we have implemented to seamlessly blend physical and virtual entities. We consider aspects such as the interaction between the camera and performer, the integration of multiple conceptual spaces, the changing relation between the artist and the work, and the multiple transformations of shape that occur when transitioning between physical and virtual spaces.
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

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.
