Emigration as augmented war experience : an (auto)biographical account of Ted Kramolc
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The biographical reconstruction of Canadian-Slovenian visual artist, writer, interior designer and art mentor Ted Kramolc (1922–2013) as presented in the following article focuses in particular on his life before he reached Canada. This reconstruction is based on the notion that his decision to emigrate should be viewed as an extended experience of the Second World War. The author has based this article on her own belief that in order to understand the social consequences of war, it is necessary to fortify historiographic sensibilities regarding personal experiences, interpersonal relationships and the variety of meanings ascribed to war. At the same time, the author seeks to broaden the point of observation to both the time preceding the war and the time following it. Empirically, the article is supported both by the available archive material as well as an analysis of as-yet-unpublished autobiographical sources. Insights from Kramolc's literary oeuvre, which to a large extent derive from lucid reflections on his own life experiences, also feature in the article.

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.
