Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This ethnographic study, conducted with seven contemporary Yup’ik carvers examines one of the oldest, but long suppressed, art forms in southwest Alaska – mask making. In-depth individual interviews captured the voices of artists of different ages, backgrounds and experiences, who, as they branch out and push the boundaries of traditional media, keep re-exploring and forging their cultural identity by bringing the forgotten symbols, values and worldviews associated with masks back to life. This article demonstrates how innovation unfolds the healing potential of masks and can help individuals and communities recuperate from a colonial past, and assert positive self-identification as Alaska Indigenous peoples today.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
