Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract This chapter concerns the morality of style in place of the moralism that has defined accounts of film style and film form in categorical terms throughout the history of film theory. Following a distinction between morality and moralism, as offered by Émilie Hache and Bruno Latour—whereby the former refuses the simple categorical logic of the latter—I argue for a conception of style as that which increases our sensitization to what obliges us in unique terms and precisely where moralistic accounts of style have only ever worked to reaffirm what we already believe. The version of morality offered here links style (and against a particular notion of form as morally overriding) to a contingent conception of the self, one that can begin to describe how the details and idiosyncrasies of works of art enrich our understanding of ourselves and others, while always indicating, and expressly as style, how any decision or judgment cannot, and should not, conceal the alternatives that were available as options before any aesthetic or moral decision is made. At root, the chapter argues for a moral account of style that allows us to understand morality in aesthetic terms that are severed from preconceived concepts of judgment.

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.
