SUMMARY:Exhibition:From Trace to Text: Highlights from the U-M Papyrus Collection
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit provides a behind-the-scenes look at the work of papyrologists: how they conserve scraps of often badly damaged papyri\, decipher traces of ink\, read and translate the resulting text\, edit and interpret its contents\, and make this available to both scholars and the general public. Modern technology\, such as digitization and multi-spectral imaging\, is aiding papyrologists in all of these efforts.\n\nTexts on display are some of the highlights of the collection. They include a wonderful drawing of an elephant\, a letter from a newly enlisted soldier to his mother\, and\, of course\, some pages of the oldest manuscript with letters of St. Paul (one of the most famous texts of the collection).\n\nIn its 90-year history\, the University of Michigan Papyrus Collection has trained more students and scholars in the field of papyrology than any other institution in North America. Founded by the visionary Francis W. Kelsey\, the Papyrus Collection has been the training ground for papyrologists from around the world and home to many great resident scholars\, such as Herbert and Louise Youtie\, Ludwig Koenen\, and Traianos Gagos\, who died on April 26\, 2010.\n\nPapyrology is the field of scholarship that deciphers and studies the texts written –primarily on papyrus– by people living in the ancient Mediterranean world between 2\,500 BCE and 1\,000 CE. Most of these texts are found in Egypt where the climate is dry enough to preserve this fragile material. It is a highly specialized and technical field\, requiring intensive training in language (Egyptian\, ancient Greek\, Latin\, Arabic)\, history\, and the unique set of skills necessary for reading original documents.\n\nThe exhibit is open during Audubon Room hours: Sun 1-7pm\, Mon-Fri 8:30-7pm\, Sat 10am-6pm.\n\nThis Exhibit is in Honor of Traianos Gagos (1960-2010).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Lecture on the Weather
DESCRIPTION:This multi-media stage work by John Cage\, based on the texts of Henry David Thoreau\, brings together speech\, music\, film\, lighting\, and a weather soundscape to form a softly political piece as relevant today as the year it was written. \n\nCage (1912-1992) was well known as an experimental composer\, philosopher\, writer\, and visual artist. A protean figure of the postwar avant-garde\, Cage collaborated with Merce Cunningham and visual artists including Joseph Beuys\, Robert Rauschenberg\, and Nam June Paik.\n\nExhibit celebration is Nov. 3\, 5-7pm\, in the gallery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:On Beauty and the Everyday: The Prints of James McNeill Whistler
DESCRIPTION:UMMA's rare and important collection of James McNeill Whistler works on paper represents  one of the finest holdings of Whistler's graphic output in North America. This major exhibition  features more than 100 works of art from UMMA's Whistler collection\, which covers the  artist's entire career in Europe\, ranging from his student days and exposure to the vanguard  artistic movements of the 19th century to the groundbreaking and atmospheric lithographs  and etchings of his mature style. It is the first exhibition devoted to Whistler's works at  UMMA since 1994.\n\nNearly all of the Whistler works came to the Museum through the bequest of Margaret  Watson Parker\, an early collector of both Whistler's prints as well as Japanese art. The  exhibition explores Whistler's illustrious life and career\; his artistic themes and concerns\,  including portraiture and his well-known series from England\, Italy\, and France\; the interests  and legacy of early-20th-century Whistler collector Margaret Watson Parker\; and the tools  and techniques that Whistler employed as a printmaker.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Out of the Ordinary: Selections from the Bohlen Wood Art and Fusfeld Folk Art Collections
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition\, which runs from September 11 through Spring of 2011\, allows visitors to  explore two extraordinary collections of art–the Robert M. and Lillian Montalto Bohlen  Collection of Wood Art and the Daniel and Harriet Fusfeld Folk Art Collection. The Bohlen  collection presents an astonishing range of contemporary artworks fashioned from wood and  includes works that explores traditional and non-traditional vessel forms as well as works that  are more purely sculptural. The outstanding objects that make up the Fusfeld collection are both  geographically and historically wide-ranging\, including work by early nineteenth-century  itinerant folk portraitists as well as late twentieth-century sculpture and painting by “outsider”  artists from the American South\, Midwest\, and Northeast.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:UMMA Projects: Jakob Kolding
DESCRIPTION:UMMA is pleased to present the first solo exhibition in a North American museum of Berlin- based artist Jakob Kolding. Kolding's work revolves around the experience of life in the  contemporary built environment\, particularly the relationships and contradictions that emerge  between how architectural spaces are planned and how they are actively used. His collages\,  drawings\, posters\, and mixed-media sculptures incorporate a wide range of source material\,  sampling and mixing the visual idiom of modernist art and architecture\, the language of  sociological inquiry\, and such popular cultural forms as hip-hop and electronic music\,  skateboarding\, and soccer. Kolding's dynamic compositions encourage us to actively question  the relationship between space and behavior\, and to imagine forms of self-expression that  use the built environment in creative new ways.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Trends and Opportunities in Science and Medical Publishing
DESCRIPTION:The current state of scientific and medical publishing is very dynamic and exciting. The migration of print publications to the electronic environment\, especially with respect to content development and information delivery\, offers many opportunities for new initiatives. As publishing moves away from traditional book and journal formats\, the content becomes much more important than the vehicle by which it is published. This trend provides authors with opportunities to disseminate content and data in novel ways. In addition\, it lends itself to the development of subject gateways\, information communities and knowledge bases that provide a ”˜one stop shop' for access to large quantities of content in a given discipline. The objective of this session is to discuss the future of science and medical publishing\, both within the context of the University of Michigan Medical School and the broader scope of commercial and not-for-profit publishing organizations. We will explore ways to develop revenue opportunities that are built around the open access mechanisms supported by the various funding bodies. We will discuss some specific examples of how to take advantage of the online environment to maximize the visibility and distribution of content.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Thursday Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  The obligate mutualism between leafcutter ants and their Attamyces fungi  originated 8-12 million years ago in the tropics but extends today into temperate  regions. The northernmost leafcutter ant Atta texana practices fungiculture during  winter conditions that would harm the cold-sensitive Attamyces cultivars of tropical  leafcutter ants. Cold-tolerance of Attamyces crops increases with winter harshness  along a latitudinal temperature gradient across the range of A.texana\, indicating  selection for cold-tolerant Attamyces variants along the temperature cline. Ecological  niche modeling identifies winter temperatures as a key range-limiting factor  impeding northward expansion of leafcutter ants. A.texana is able to sustain  fungiculture throughout winter because of their cold-adapted fungi and behaviors to  regulate garden temperatures. Although the origin of leafcutter fungiculture was an  evolutionary breakthrough that revolutionized the food niche of tropical fungus- growing ants\, the dependence on cold-sensitive fungal symbionts eventually  constrained the ecological success of leafcutter ants during their expansion into  temperate habitats. Evolution of cold-tolerant fungi within the symbiosis relaxed  constraints on winter fungiculture at the northern frontier of the leafcutter ant  distribution\, thereby expanding the ecological niche of a host-microbe symbiosis.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:High Heat: Operation and Repair of Backcountry Stoves Clinic
DESCRIPTION:Using a backcountry stove can be intimidating at first – you might wonder if you are using it correctly\, if you've bought the correct fuel\, or if there is really only one switch for adjusting the flame. If this sounds familiar\, you are likely not alone. Luckily\, with a little knowledge and practice they can become simple and even intuitive. Not to mention relatively easy to fix. This MOLS clinic will teach you how to operate\, maintain\, and fix your stove in any situation.

SUMMARY:Performance:Missy Raines & The New Hip & Boulder Acoustic Society
DESCRIPTION:Tonight's double bill offers new directions in acoustic music. The sound of Boulder Acoustic Society is haunted by the past and focused on the future. It's indie folk that draws from Appalachian roots\, gritty gospel\, and contemporary urban soundscapes. Five years\, five albums and relentless touring have honed Boulder Acoustic Society into one of tightest and most entertaining bands of any genre\, with pulsing\, grooving percussion supporting the dual lead vocals of multi-instrumentalists Scott McCormick and Aaron Keim. Does BAS play contemporary music with a dark\, folky vibe or folk music with poppy hooks and string band textures? By the end of the show you won't care.\n\nA beloved figure in bluegrass and a pioneering force in acoustic music\, bassist and vocalist Missy Raines has charted her career in line with her experimental spirit. Launching her career with experimental bluegrass outfit Cloud Valley\, Missy toured with newgrass greats Eddie and Martha Adcock. Soon she was lending her bass skills to the Masters (Adcock\, Kenny Baker\, Josh Graves and Jesse McReynolds). Raines joined Claire Lynch's popular Front Porch String Band and developed a successful duo with bandmate and Ark favorite Jim Hurst. A stint with Nashville's brilliantly innovative and vastly underrated Brother Boys opened Missy's eyes to the value of spontaneity and immediacy in her musical approach. Now Missy Raines is stepping out to make a longtime dream come true: fusing bluegrass virtuosity\, a jazz-tinged groove\, and a song-driven sensibility in a hot new band of her own. Missy Raines and the New Hip are just that.
