Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This reflection is about the author’s lived experiences in social dance practices within the Caribbean diaspora and its transnational ties to Africa, as explored through a commissioned research-creation titled Un loc' de riddims in meh body. The experiences inspired five artworks representing embodied dance geographies in social environments that facilitated dance liberation. During the creative process, Edward Kamau Braithwaite's 'tidaletics' served as a framework that influenced Murray's excavation of her African diasporic identity, as well as her experiences with past and contemporary dancing in Carnival practices, and moments of emancipation. Murray describes nuances within her dancing body as an intentional act to engage with kinaesthetic expressions from different ethnocultural communities, and why this is emancipatory in the Black and Free research project in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. Murray creatively decolonized the Canadian museum experience through the presentation’s integration of visual arts, dance performance with live music, and community-engaged arts.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
