Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This practice is my meditation on Being in this world that compels different questions of self, the Other and the Earth, yielding possibilities for our collective future that we have yet to dream into being. Over 30 years, thousands of posters of my face have been placed across Canada. The face is altered to resemble escaped slave drawings from the 18th century Montreal Gazette. Enslavers bought space and placed these drawings as ads in order to hunt for escaped slaves. By recontextualizing the escaped slave poster, I bring attention to the history of slavery in Canada and the United States filtered through my contemporary feelings of being studied, dehumanized, and pursued. In addition to interrogating history, I ask, “what it means to Be in the world?” Dislocation and rootedness, to be known and alone, these oversimplified binaries inadequately articulate our profound longing to Be.

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.
