LA MAGIE DE L’ESPACE DANS LES AIGUILLES ET L’OPIUM DE ROBERT LEPAGE
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The paper puts foreword a semiotic analysis of the spaces in Robert Lepage's dramatic production Needles and Opium, where the Quebec-based creator mobilises a complex and highly significant spatial typology, framed using identifiable, non-identifiable, coagulating, open and closed, near and far spaces. The architecture of space and Lepage's predilection for certain geometric figures, such as the square and the cube, are a constant feature of his aesthetics. In Needles and Opium, the conceptualisation of space is made all the more complex by the fact that the stage is full of dichotomies and spatio-temporal binomials, subsumed under the stage-cube that undergoes metamorphosis throughout the show via permanent rotation and spatial closure/opening. The spatial poetics of Lepage fosters emotionally rich spaces, filled with the experiences of the characters as their mental state changes upon their experiences and, implicitly, the spaces they pass through.

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.
