Making art at the end of the world: (Un)learning in the Schoolhouse of Modernity
Bibliographic record
Abstract
‘Making art at the end of the world’ introduces a research-creation project with participants from across the world as one step towards collectively reimagining mainstream education’s role in responding to the planetary climate crisis. The article starts with the assumption that the dominant form of education is deeply implicated in the climate crisis and needs to be unlearned and re-learned for the planet and people to survive and thrive. Drawing on the concept of ‘The House of Modernity’ to identify the historic values, beliefs and practices that have propelled our global climate crisis, we focus specifically on what we conceptualize as the ‘Schoolhouse of Modernity’, the place where colonial-modernity is transmitted and reproduced through educational content, pedagogy and structure, including through the arts. Working with artistic responses, crowd-sourced through the ‘Turn It Around!’ (TiA) project, we explore the power of arts as a methodology for critically interrogating education in the Schoolhouse of Modernity, tracing how TiA’s project design and process offer possibilities for education otherwise.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
