Abstract
Feminist critics have been as slow to take up the tools of electronic scholarship as the academy has been at recognizing on-line criticism as a legitimate mode of investigation. Canadian experimental feminist authors and artists, however, are proving more likely to embrace the philosophy, if not necessarily the medium, of electronic possibilities. The potential for cutting edge hypertext feminist scholarship is examined through an examination of Nicole Brossard's use of Virtual Reality as a feminist discourse in her novel Baroque at Dawn (Baroque d'aube) and Catherine Richards' body-based, real time art explorations in her Virtual Reality installation pieces entitled The Virtual Body and Curiosity Cabinet, at the End of the Millennium.

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
