Abstract
I remember the long hot summer of 1990. Twenty years since Oka. I easily recall images of the Canadian military surrounding the Mohawk nation. This moment in our history affirmed what I have known since childhood. I was born in a colonial space.
 I am aware that our land and Aboriginal rights are constantly being eroded. We must continually fight to hang onto what we have left. Using my intellectual and physical abilities I create images that mark our experience, mapping our space in time. This is how I view my role as an artist amongst our people. I imagine this is the way it has always been.
 X, responds to Oka in the immediacy of the present space of Price Choppers in Peterborough. They are having a ceremony across the street to rebury a two thousand year old Aboriginal man, found when they created the parking lot. What strikes me about the reburial site is that it is such a generic setting - between a parking lot and a sidewalk on a very busy street - no trees, no meandering sidewalk, no benches, absolutely outside of public spaces created out of civic pride.
 The repetitive actions of marking, erasing, marking and erasing large X’s – two Aboriginal women, contemporary individuals, with specific identities are going about our work in current time and space. And yes, across the street, a ritual of return, a reburial of what was disturbed and removed is taking place.
 The ancient ones obviously used this site in a very different way. Us –with our vehicles, parking lots, grocery stores, telephones and cars. The sacred fire for the reburial, the spiritual return quietly takes place while contemporary life moves on.
 I guess on some level, I am seeing us as them and them as us. How long before Price Chopper and the parking lot become something else?

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
