Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This article compares two works picked by celebrity book clubs in the summer of 2018 for their dissection of mainstream America’s ongoing obsession with the violence inflicted on beautiful young bodies of those who identify as female: Alice Bolin’s essay collection Dead Girls and Maria Hummel’s mystery Still Lives. In reading them together with Melanie Pullen’s High Fashion Crime Scenes (2003–2017), a series of monumental, five-feet-by-six-feet photographs in which well-known actresses and models dressed in haute couture were staged as murder victims in elaborately designed settings mostly in and around Los Angeles; Rosi Braidotti’s accounting of the two competing notions of life, bios and zoe, and how they coincide on gendered human bodies; and W.J.T. Mitchell’s understanding of images’ uncanny ability to live on and to animate bodies, my analyses consider the way different forms of artistic representation emerging in Los Angeles work for and against the biopolitical control of objectified, gendered life.

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.
