Her installations synthesize a range of media and genres--including literature\, design\, craft\, and performance–-conjuring an imaginary alternate history of twentieth-century art\, design\, and social activism. Much of Perret's work over the past decade has stemmed from \"The Crystal Frontier\"\, the fictional archive of a female utopian commune called New Ponderosa. From paintings and sculptures to ceramics and textiles or film\, Perret's works infuse the formal vocabulary of modernism with a distinctly handmade aesthetic. Perret's exhibition at UMMA will present an episodic overview of her work from the past decade and will include numerous works never before exhibited in North America.

Dr. Drew will present a case study of a multi-locus species tree for the coral reef fish genus Amblyglyphidodon\n(Pomacentridae) from within the Indo-West Pacific region.He first\ninterpret this phylogeny in the light of an on-going debate over the\nmechanisms underpinning the marine biodiversity hotspot of the Coral\nTriangle. Then\, using several rapidly evolving genes he investigates if evolutionary patterns present at the genus level are recapitulated at the species level. Finally\, Dr. Drew will show how this robust phylogeny can be used to structure regional conservation planning.\n UID:4931-1131022@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/4931 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:biodiversity,ecology,environmental,evolutionary biology LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - 1200 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20100827T215835 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20110217T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20110217T170000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Intimate Violence DESCRIPTION:Lecturer: Jeff Kopstein\, University of Toronto UID:3418-918680@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/3418 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION: CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110209T085416 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20110217T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20110217T173000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Moral Imperative of Higher Education in the Ecumenical Century DESCRIPTION: UID:5411-1131679@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/5411 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:social justice,religious LOCATION:Rackham Graduate School (Horace H.) - Rackham Amphitheater CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110118T160136 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20110217T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20110217T190000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Third Thursday at the Map Library: Display of items from the collection related to Water DESCRIPTION:Featured items from the Map Library's collection include early charts of the Great Lakes\, a 25 ft. long scroll map for navigating the Colorado River\, a World War II pilot's cloth emergency map showing ocean currents\, and some remarkable 17th century nautical charts. \nSponsored by the Map Library.\n UID:5089-1131245@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/5089 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:special event LOCATION:Hatcher Graduate Library - Hatcher Library Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110217T000215 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20110217T163000 SUMMARY:Performance:Music Theory Lecture DESCRIPTION:Brian Hyer\, Professor of Music at the University of Wisconsin - Madison\, will present a lecture as the Michigan Distinguished Resident in Music Theory.

Understanding how this diversity arose can help us better understand where to focus our conservation efforts. The epicenter of tropical marine diversity is centered in the “coral triangle” of Papua New Guinea\, the Philippines and Indonesia. While this pattern has been known for over a century it is only recently that we can start to answer the question “why are there so many fish in the sea?” This talk will present some cutting edge science that allows us to understand the architecture of how species are made\, and the role that natural history museums can play in protecting those species.
