Each swipe captures the gesture as well as the memory of the gesture\, now already in the past. Each panel appears to duplicate itself beyond any final tally\, proliferating in the room.\n\nUpon first glance\, Tolon’s constructs evoke a sense of freedom in their repetition. They appear infinite\, suggestive of vast open spaces\, like the modern landscapes viewed out of a train window\, or the documentary film reels from the mid- twentieth century. They draw us in\, inviting our dreams and interpretations. In this momentary introspection\, we contemplate our own histories.\n\nThen\, like the first day of any highly anticipated tomorrow\, after the proverbial summer full of expectation”¦expecting things to change\, to be different\, to be new again\, we are struck with a profound disillusionment\, stranded in a place full of promise that never delivers. In a turn\, the world of photographic familiarity Tolon has created collapses in on itself. – Amanda Krugliak\, arts curator\n\nThis Institute for the Humanities original installation was made possible by the generosity of the 2012 Kidder Residency in the Arts. The installation is based on Canan Tolon’s observations and experiences during her time in Ann Arbor\, and many of the materials used are salvage materials from her visits to Detroit architectural yards. \n\n UID:10376-1174010@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/10376 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:architecture,visual arts LOCATION:202 S.

The high temperatures required to create crystalline silicon devices\, however\, has limited the application of crystalline silicon to sensing systems that work in a small and mechanically rigid form factor. The development of inorganic and organic thin film electronics has launched a second revolution in electronics\, granting the ability to process electronically active materials at low temperatures. This has allowed for two exciting opportunities: the ability to build electronic devices on the same size scale as the systems they interact with\, and the ability to integrate electronic materials on a range of substrates including electronically active and flexible materials. Our group has been working on the hybrid integration of organic semiconductors and SLS laser-recrystallized silicon with active substrates to implement sensing\, display\, and mechanical actuation functionalities. In this presentation\, I'll show how thin film electronics and the hybrid integration enabled by new semiconductor systems and process options allows for active and spatially localized control of systems that are typically used in a single element format. Using this capability we have demonstrated the electronic implementation of all five senses as well a new approaches to mechanical actuation in polymer materials and driving LEDs in display engines. In particular\, I'll show how thin film transistors can be integrated with other active materials to build monolithically integrated microphones and pressure sensors\, flexible sheet scanners\, mass-based chemical sensors\, high power light engines\, and segmented polymer actuators. It is our hope that these devices will form some of the building blocks for future electronic systems and interface paradigms with application in a range of technological and healthcare areas.

African art is often interpreted in Western analytical frameworks as expressions of timeless myths and rituals\, interrupted only by the colonial encounter. African Art and the Shape of Time complicates such conventional views by considering diverse modes for reckoning time and its philosophical\, social\, and religious significance. The exhibition includes 30 works from the University of Michigan Museum of Art\, National Museum of African Art\, Fowler Museum at UCLA\, as well as several Detroit area private collections\, and is organized around five themes that explore the multiplicity of time in Africa: The Beginning of Things\, Embodied Time\, Moving Through Time\, Global Time\, and \"NOW.\"\n\nThis exhibition is generously supported by the University of Michigan Health System.

In conflating a momentous contemporary event with the genre of large-scale history painting\, West flouted the conventions of academic painting and the work became one of the most celebrated paintings in Britain. The artist went on to produce six versions of the painting\, one of which belongs to the William L. Clements Library at the University of Michigan. Through approximately 40 works from Michigan\, Canadian\, and British collections\, this ambitious and thematically focused exhibition will include the Clements canvas as well as other depictions of James Wolfe and his death on the battlefield.\n\nGenerous support for this exhibition is provided by the Joseph F.

In this breathtaking installation\, as in much of his work\, Just situates the viewer in his signature landscape of beauty\, provocation\, and a general uneasiness that is as seductive as it is ominous. The storyline is at once deceptively simple and perplexing: a wheelchair-bound protagonist travels through a neighborhood in the outskirts of Paris to her apartment\, while a young male character appears to follow her.

Like Tyrannosaurus rex\, sabre-toothed cats\, and similar apex predators\, they first became known from a famous deposit - the Cambrian Burgess Shale. Aside from their iconic status\, anomalocaridids also play an important role in our understanding of Earth history and evolution because they are keystone organisms. They are keystones because our interpretations of their biology and ecology\, based on the morphology of fossils\, anchor our understanding of how entire marine ecosystems functioned. Yet new finite element modeling\, taphonomic\, and mineralogic analyses of these extinct creatures seems to contradict the longstanding interpretation of the biology and ecology of these animals\, suggesting rather that they may have been small\, that their mouths were soft\, that they could not close their mouth\, and that they could not have possibly eaten trilobites. Similarly\, analyses of malformed or \"bitten\" trilobites interpreted to be prey suggests that they could not have been deformed by the mouth or appendages of any known anomalocaridid. Analysis of putative anomalocaridid coprolites from the same deposits suggests that coprolites were produced by other animals or inorganic processes. Based on this new work\, it is unclear if these iconic predators were really just small worm-suckers or whether they were early plankton combers. Regardless\, this new data could substantially change the way we interpret the complexity of ancient ecosystems\, the evolution of large arthropods and their kin\, and biogeochemical feedback loops in organic-rich muddy settings.
