Abstract
Powerful prosthetic memories of the Titanic story have circulated in popular culture for more than a century and have become the focus of several experiential museums and Titanic-focused heritage sites on both sides of the Atlantic, most notably in Belfast, Northern Ireland, where the doomed liner was built. Drawing on recent field work, this article analyses the ways in which a series of engaging, multisensory and three-dimensional spatial narratives have been deployed within the new Titanic Belfast signature attraction and the surrounding memoryscape to make the absent ship present for visitors once more. These spatial narratives inform an affective heritage approach that focuses, not on the tragedy of Titanic’s sinking, but on feelings of awe and wonder at the scale and grandeur of the great ship, allowing memory managers to tell a celebratory, Belfast-focused origin story for this internationally renowned ‘ship of dreams’.

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
