Abstract
‘Mondegreen’ was a collaboration between Millar and the Canadian artist Geoffrey Farmer, which took place at Project Arts Centre, Dublin, 7 July–20 August 2011. It took the form of a 'sculpture-play', which ran for approximately nine-and-a-half hours every day, over the entire exhibition run of seven weeks: an attempt to create a new form of performance and exhibition-making. The title ‘Mondegreen’ refers to a mishearing, usually in song lyrics, and the exhibition explored both artists’ fascination with the slippages that occur in the retelling of a story. The story was simple – the replaying of a day the artists spent together supposedly to discuss what they would exhibit – yet drawn into the narrative were a diverse range of characters and cultural acts, from the pedagogical methods of Pythagoras to the chance operations of John Cage; Joyce’s recreation, in Ulysses, of a single day was another obvious influence. Millar gathered research material from diverse sources and selected on the basis of affinities found between them. The gallery’s opening hours were altered to replicate the day the artists spent together. The score’s recital occurred daily, performed by a designated individual who activated the changing scenography and sound components. The ways in which these actions were choreographed was deliberate, established to work between the predefined and the interpretative; a frame creating distance between authorship, control and happenstance. As Isobel Harbison wrote in Frieze (2011), ‘Despite the potential pitfalls of an arranged artist pairing and an exhibition that struck so ambitiously across disciplines, “Mondegreen” succeeded in a variety of ways…Avoiding a wearying exercise in reading on our feet, or another fatiguing object–association sculpture whose common elements remain innocuous and undisclosed, this work was as lucid and generous in fragments as it was in its entirety.’

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.
