Abstract
The 2018 Textile Society of America (TSA) symposium, “Social Fabric: From Deep Local to Pan Global,” was a marked contrast from the previous symposium, with a more robust focus on indigenous and aboriginal textiles. Held in Canada’s progressive Vancouver, British Columbia, the planned scope and inclusivity of symposium events included notable First Nations speakers, site visits, art exhibitions, and plenary sessions which interrogated colonial histories and helped steer away the ethnographic gaze prevalent in the academic textile field. Noteworthy events included a fashion show presented by Vancouver Indigenous Fashion Week, the exhibition Arts of Resistance: Politics and the Past in Latin America at the University of British Columbia’s Museum of Anthropology, the keynote speech by Tlingit weaver Meghann/Jaad O’Brien, and the Intertwined exhibition of textile artwork by faculty, staff and students of Emily Carr University.

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
