Occupying UCI: Chris Burden’s Five Day Locker Piece as Institutional Critique
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Le lundi matin du 26 avril 1971, Chris Burden grimpe dans un casier de 60 × 60 × 90 centimètres dans un atelier de l’Université de Californie à Irvine (UCI), où il a la semaine pour présenter son projet de maîtrise : la performance d’endurance Five Day Locker Piece, durant laquelle il s’enferme 105 heures. Même si la référence n’est nullement explicite, le geste de Burden est semblable aux occupations protestataires de la fin des années 1960 qui paralysèrent les campus universitaires à travers les États-Unis. Cet article a pour but de réexaminer Five Day Locker Piece comme une critique institutionnelle dans laquelle l’artiste occupe un espace de l’école d’art, afin de perturber le flux des activités habituelles. À l’aide d’interviews et de documents archivistiques disponibles depuis peu, il réévalue une des oeuvres fondatrices de la performance des années 1970, au regard de sa place dans le canon de la critique institutionnelle.

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.
