Abstract
Transparency is a two-person exhibition from Glasgow-based artists Alberta Whittle and Hardeep Pandhal curated by Mother Tongue, spanning print, artist moving image, drawing and installation. It responds to the architectural heritage of the Castlemills site – as a former silk factory, premises of the North British Rubber Company, and brewery – now occupied by Edinburgh Printmakers. The exhibition takes as its point of departure the physical layers of the print-making process; the buildings’ history; and considers the local built environment as a present-day testimony to Scotland’s colonial past. The exhibition’s title invokes the multiple definitions and etymological roots of the word ‘transparency,’ simultaneously i) meaning to shine a light through, ii) make easily detectable, and iii) to be open to public scrutiny, whilst transparency film is used in many printmaking methods as a means to transfer the image. Working with these three meanings in hand, the exhibition reflects upon on our current political environment, language, trade, travel, contact zones, and calls into question Scotland’s amnesia towards its colonial past. At the same time, their explorations push-back against aspects of transparency: via defacement, through otherworldly and digital simulations, and in the use of appropriated imagery.

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.
