Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Richard Grusin's concept of premediation —a term coined in response to changes in the nature of mediation after 9/11—both differs from and extends the meaning of the term remediation , coined in the late 1990s in response to a mediascape radically altered by digital technologies of (re)production. Where remediation operates with a double logic of immediacy and hypermediacy, premediation operates according to its own double logic: affect and mediality. In transforming past media, remediation disavows its own formal processes (immediacy) even as it draws attention to them (hypermediacy). Premediation is predicated upon the understanding that media such as the Internet are not merely symptomatic of contemporary life but play an active role in shaping the world as we experience it every day. Premediation's profoundest effects are not affective but moral, not ontological but epistemological, as, in projecting possible futures, it sheds new light upon contemporary mutations in subjectivity.

Not 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.
