Weaving Codes: Special issue of Textile: The Journal of Cloth and Culture
Bibliographic record
Abstract
T his article introduces the TEXTILE special issue on Weaving Codes, Coding Weaves, and the project of the same name, which was funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council for 18 months from September 2014.We introduce the collaborators of this interdisciplinary project, spanning textiles, music, arts technology, computer science, mathematics, anthropology, media theory, and philosophy.We tell the multifaceted story of how we met and began to collaborate, following prescient activities in textiles, music performance, live art, and computer programming that have met confluence in our project.This forms an introduction to the articles produced by these collaborators, either as part of the Weaving Codes project, or in parallel with it.We conclude by looking to the future, in particular the five year ERC PENELOPE project now beginning in the Deutsches Museum in Munich.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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.
