Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Puppet artists, from the fatherly Geppetto in The Adventures of Pinocchio to the more troubled Craig Schwartz in Being John Malkovich, are often represented as loners, pursuing their chosen art without any outside aid. The solitary puppet artist certainly exists, but as Steve Tillis points out, “[T]he opportunity for control that puppetry offers the artist is frequently taken up less for artistic reasons than for financial ones, at least in America”; and the situation is not markedly different in Canada: “[I]t is often only by working alone that an artist can earn a living” (33). Even the lone puppet artist — or indeed, perhaps especially she — can learn from exchanging ideas and techniques with other artists, however. Moreover, puppetry as a whole can only benefit from the intellectual and artistic cross-pollination that ensues when artists and companies come together in the same space, at the same time, to view and discuss each other’s work. A puppet theatre festival offers a rare chance for artists to do just that.

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.
