Abstract
The Dance Machine is a durational and participatory installation of rope, pulleys, bamboo, and cedar. Au-dience members’ engagement with the machine is facilitated by dance artists, who prepare for this task by learning from Indigenous knowledge holders and assembling the machine alongside technicians. Piecing together archival fragments in dialogue with Lee Su-Feh, I discuss how the Dance Machine initially was developed in extension of Lee’s body and eventually became her ‘outside body’ – inviting consensual envi-ronmental and interpersonal interactions. In pursuit of such connections, Lee’s journey with the Dance Machine moved through: (1) learning and teaching how to listen to the machine, and (2) querying what she does not know about herself as a colonized Malaysian body and about the displaced Indigenous peoples whose land she occupies in Canada. A potential for relational change seems to emerge from the self-organizing dramaturgy of the Dance Machine. To understand this potential, I first (tentatively) identify the Dance Machine’s generating components and the patterns of engagement they attract. Then I theorize the material performativity and capacity for change of these dynamics while relating them to Lee’s parallel journey.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
