Abstract
Ecocritical writer-activists have recently focused on the difficulties of representing climate, its slowly violent changes, and the ways human and more-than-human bodies inter- and intra-act within it. Though contextually dissimilar, various Dadaist aesthetics and praxes are likewise critically engaged with the intersection of deeply complex systems and their violent effects on bodies. I argue that there are useful imbrications, previously unexplored, of the ecocritical theories of slow violence and trans-corporeality in the idiosyncratic aesthetic practices of Dadaism. The Dadaist focus on “making visible” the hypercomplex culpability of ubiquitous and otherwise invisible culture, the implicit critique of traditional visual hegemony within that culture, and Dada’s use of photomontage portraiture to ironically perform the invisible and accretive violence of that culture with representations of human and more-than-human bodies productively align with recent ecocritical theories of slow violence and intra-active trans-corporeality. Dada can then be viewed to have distantly prefigured elements of these ecocritical theories.

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.
