Sound, Precarity, and Mapuche Reality in Urban Santiago
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ABSTRACT This article explores the role of sound during the performance of the Mapuche ceremony llellipun in Santiago. It argues that ceremonial sounds create an immersive experience that facilitates intercommunication between humans, spirits, and the ecosystem amid an eco‐spiritually precarious space, thereby making audible a distinctively urban Mapuche way of thinking and being in the world. In establishing and rendering perceptible human, non‐human, and more‐than‐human relations, sound production and sensation reaffirm the often‐neglected presence of eco‐spiritual forces and entities in the city—central components of the Mapuche lived world. However, this lived entanglement of the anthropological, ecological, and cosmological orders facilitated by llellipun differs from that of rural Mapuche settings. Indeed, Santiago's ecological and urban precarity, which hinders communication with nature and spirits, turns llellipun into an essential means of Mapuche existence, allowing them to reactivate an eco‐spiritual relationality that urbanity has certainly obstructed but not yet destroyed.

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.
