Piece Hall, Halifax 2017 (with Commentary)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This time-lapse film is part of my doctoral research into contemporary UK outdoor arts. I use time-lapse videography to document the durational relationships between space, audience and performance.<br> The film was made at the re-opening event for Halifax’s Piece Hall on the 19<sup>th</sup> and 20<sup>th</sup> August 2017. The Piece Hall is a large two and three-storey colonnade configured in a rectangle and surrounding a sizeable square. It was built in the late 18<sup>th</sup> century in the neo-classical style as a trading centre for the cloth industry. Today the colonnade houses a range of shops, restaurants and bars and the square is used for a range of open-air events and markets. Whilst the square is enclosed, there are entrances on the North, South and West sides which lead to Halifax’s commercial areas and transport hubs. The camera was sited on a second floor balcony on the southern side of the space looking roughly north. In the film there are five groups performing: Circus Raj; The Fairly Famous Family; Osadia; The Grand Theatre of Lemmings and The Desperate Men. The festival was programmed by Jeremy Shine and generally features longstanding outdoor arts companies with extensive experience of the form. The density of performances in a relatively small, enclosed space led to a lively competition for audiences and perhaps to those audiences being unusually mobile.<br> The edit focuses on a 40-minute period on Sunday the 20<sup>th</sup> August in which there is a good view of The Desperate Men’s show from around 10 minutes before the start until the end. Motion graphics and a commentary analysing the data have been added to the film.

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.
