The Brussels Dance Swarm on the Move: Precarious Bodies (not) at Home
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This article questions the notion of ‘home’ and proposes that a home is not confined to a stable location, but can temporarily emerge in mobile communities that materialize in contemporary dance performances. One such mobile community is that of the Brussels transnational dance scene, which is perhaps the most important of all contemporary dance scenes given the city’s status as a mecca for contemporary dance. An adequate understanding of the Brussels dance community will demonstrate that the notion of community includes a dimension of temporality that goes hand in hand with the members’ precarious existence, and will reveal that the community is grounded in transnational mobility and virtuality: the members are constantly on the move and thus never at home in the traditional sense of the word; instead it is a changing network of relations that constitutes their home. This article further explores the precarity, mobility and temporality of the Brussels dance community through analysis of the dance performance <i>VOLCANO</i> (2014) by Canadian-born choreographer Liz Kinoshita, which thematises the constant travelling of performing artists.

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.
