Abstract
Virtual Concretism Continued: Poetry Concrete in Second Life extends Patrick Lichty’s research in virtual concretism from Joseph Frank’s theories of Spatial Literary Theory (1943), through Fluxus, performance art group Second Front, and the work of Canadian concretist BP Nichol. It expands from a earlier works such as 2019’s Letters for Negin, which explored multilingual concrete poetry and gravity as a narrative device. But, given the context of the COVID viral pandemic, Virtual Concretism Continued takes place in the shared virtual world of Second Life. Hosted by the Odyssey Art and Performance Space, the work will be concretist installation continuing from that maze in Farsi from Letters for Negin, but also new works by Lichty that will be “performed” live in a 15-minute Happening inside the larger installation that will remain for the month of the conference. Visitors will be given the ability to interact and add components to the Installation. The context of the work relates to the global virtual turn under COVID, as well as the late 2010’s renaissance of Second Life, as a mature virtual space.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
