Abstract
During 1999 and 2000, I lived in a district of Montreal known for its textile factories. Vast, Borg-cube shaped monstrosities line the streets. Freight trains shudder past daily, the tracks littered with fabric offcuts and used plastic sheeting. At all hours of the day and night the factory machines whirr, filling the streets below with their chatter and the smells of solvent and dye. On freezing winter mornings, I would watch the workers arrive in their buses from the suburbs. North-Indian, Korean, Guatemalan, Croatian; the all-purpose undifferentiated mass of immigrant labour upon which modern economies prosper. The Rosemont and Chabanel districts are badlands, the industrial unconscious of modern trade. Rosemont / Chabanel is an attempt to render this environment as a sonic experience. Although electroacoustic sounds have been used, none of the sounds originate from the actual environment. The sonic environment is a constructed one, intensely processed, technologically mediated.

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 it
