Abstract
In this article, we reflect on the pivot to online research creation in COVID’s wake, and offer a gallery of ten films that emerged through on-line multimedia story-making under lockdown conditions. We describe what new, online research creation has meant for us as critical disability and intersectionality scholars who work with creative visual methods—both with and in justice-seeking communities. We introduce COVID-era adaptions to the research creation practices we co-developed that helped to sustain racialized/allied, disability, fat, neurodivergent, mad, aging cultures and communities during the pandemic. We focus on the bifurcated affective economies that circulated around COVID, and how these affects surface in the stories of makers who participated in on-line multimedia workshops that we have run since March 2020. While the pandemic has deepened inequalities and disrupted research and arts activism, we argue that it provided opportunity to expand possibilities for disability and non-normative cultural production and to imagine and fight for a radically different world.

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 it
