Abstract
This issue represents a bit of an experiment. Our last Symposium for SoTL, in November 2022, seemed particularly thought-provoking and we were proud of the lively community and conversations so evident throughout the conference. We decided that we weren’t quite ready to let these conversations go, and invited each keynote speaker to provide an invited piece for this issue. We then created a call for proposals inviting conference attendees to respond to the keynotes, and in this issue are two pieces that do just that. In each case, the authors take the ideas they understood from one of the keynotes and develop and relate them to their own ideas and contexts. A signature element of our Symposium has become pop-up poetry. As part of this Call and Response issue, we also offer two essays written by the poets, Richard Harrison and Beth Everest, as well as two responses to the experience. We hope you enjoy reading this issue as much as we enjoyed putting it together. It seems a perfect segue into our next Symposium, happening in just a few week’s time, where we will continue the conversation.

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.
