MDPE.7:5 - Worked Cases and Boundaries
MDPE.7:5.1 - Music arrangement: presentation or another rehearsal
Suppose MDPE.15 reports that an arrangement artifact was revised to restore an antiphonal relation and that one bounded rehearsal supports improved clarity while one articulation judgement remains uncertain. The current DecisionSubject is the production team. Performing in the ensemble does not by itself establish authority for this decision.
The live options may be: present under the tested conditions, run one additional rehearsal with the intended room and singer, revise articulation first, or perform maintenance Work that retains the acoustic branch and suspends the electronic branch. The current set can instead be rejected for the present concert use. If the room-and-singer rehearsal can still reverse whether presentation is safe and musically plausible, ChoiceResult = probe again can select that rehearsal as the next bounded Work. If it cannot change the survivor relation, choose now rather than demand more analysis.
The rehearsal schedule, venue permission, and any WorkPlan remain separate from the choice.
For a completed choice, see the constructed social-dance and live-music application. Its organizing team selects an unfamiliar-partner transfer trial and keeps the current event block for one month; the observations do not yet support the larger festival investment.
MDPE.7:5.2 - Social dance: do not scale a phrase after one fluent pair trial
A pair trial reports that one Urban Kiz phrase is fluent for the participating dancers but partner readability degrades at a faster tempo and in denser floor traffic. A teacher or event team should not infer that the phrase is ready for a general class or party programme.
For a teaching-development decision, live options can include another varied-partner transfer trial, a slower-tempo cue repair, a branch for advanced participants, or a teaching format limited to lower floor density. The current set can instead be rejected for the proposed crowded-floor use. The deciding teacher or school, participating dancers, pair, venue, and scene remain different Systems. A bounded varied-partner trial may be the next Work when it can change whether the branch remains live.
This is a constructed application; it does not report a named class, pair, or event.
MDPE.7:5.3 - Movement-generation project: return to practitioner comparison, not platform release
The Chédin et al. case supports high- and low-fidelity movement-generation outputs having different practitioner uses, while a middling compromise was rejected in that setting. A maintained alternative account can record the branches, their proposed uses, and the evidence about availability.
Before choosing another dancer-involving comparison, a model or interface repair, or maintenance Work for the low-fidelity stimulus branch, establish that the relevant branch is available for the named practitioner use: its output or bearer can be obtained; a capable and permitted Agent can use it; and the required model, interface, configuration, access, and upkeep relations obtain. If only the account survives, choose reconstruction or upkeep Work, or let C.11 return reject current set; stopping is not disguised as another development-Work option.
The project team or other named DecisionSubject makes the next decision only under an independently supported authority relation. Release, cultural recognition, and transmission need separate results. A new model score that cannot change the performer-facing decision is not a reason to postpone the choice.
MDPE.7:5.4 - Shimon: the team chooses a configured trial; the robot performs it
After a changing-tempo performance trial, the human project team may compare: adjust gesture timing, change sensing, accept a bounded synchronization loss, run another observer task, or perform the documentation and configuration Work needed to retire the present branch. Shimon can perform Music Work autonomously within the demonstrated configuration. The human team is the reported practice-developing Agent; this account names it as DecisionSubject only for project-local choices covered by an independently supported authority relation.
The selected next Work identifies its robot configuration, tempo conditions, observer task, musical criteria, noise and gesture constraints, authority, and stop rule. A technical speed result from another configuration enters only if it changes this comparison. One trial does not establish cultural adoption or robot-held authority.
MDPE.7:5.5 - Cultural continuation is a different question, not invented project authority
A group of organizers observes that a social-dance variant appears less often at their event and considers declaring it lost or launching a restoration programme. Their event trace does not establish population-level loss, and their organizational authority may not extend beyond the event.
The lawful local result can identify MDPE.19 for a qualified account of the supported continuation and its limits, including a decision to continue only the current event or retire that local arrangement. A representative continuation test, probe again with a receiving-enactment observation, or a local event experiment is a separate choice when the Work is obtainable and its contribution warrants the full burden under the organizers’ actual authority. The result cannot be “the community will restore the style” unless a named chooser, authority, Work, population and later cultural relations support that claim.
MDPE.7:5.6 - Direct-decision and live-branch stops
Use a direct artistic, rehearsal, teaching, event, curation, operations, strategy, or engineering decision Method when it already supplies the bounded options, comparison, chooser, authority, intended Work, and revisit condition. Use A.15.7 when a current fact changes only the next action inside ongoing Work under an admitted Method. MDPE.7 adds no value by renaming either result as practice development.
