Abstract
The 1950s and 1960s saw a profusion of avant-garde works that employ some degree of mobility, the best-known being Stockhausen’s Klavierstück XI and Boulez’s Piano Sonata No. 3. This chapter surveys discourse on indeterminacy, open works and mobility in order to test the hypothesis that the existence of recordings created a new ontology that allowed in part for mobile works to come on the scene. Since the work’s “essence” would henceforth be assured by recordings, scores were freed from their role as guarantors of a work’s ontology, allowing them to become more playful and open-ended. This chapter focuses on the way contemporary listeners may have understood this connection. In this light, mobile works can be viewed as a “phonograph effect” (in Mark Katz’s sense), and some of the basic historiographic presuppositions about musical modernism, one that sees an autonomous avant-garde isolated from a burgeoning record industry, are thereby interrogated.

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.
