The workshops, taught by Harvey Littleton along with scientist Dominick Labino, introduced a small furnace built for working glass that made it possible for artists to work in independent studios. The studio glass movement quickly spread north to Michigan, and in 1982, a decision was made that studio glass would be the focus of the University of Michigan-Dearborn permanent art collection, which is housed at the Alfred Berkowitz Gallery. This exhibition is a portion of that collection, spotlighting studio glass art by major artists working in the medium, including Dominick Labino, Marvin Lipofsky and Richard Ritter.

Centered in the museum\u2019s rotunda, the white plastic monolith is punctured by multiple view-holes, offering glimpses of the students\u2019 globally-oriented design and research projects, represented in miniature. The ten student projects each proposed an \u201cearth observatory\u201d\u009d at the intersection of a particular global system and the local environments, material conditions, and visual cultures that system intersects.\r\n\r\nStudio Brief:\r\nThe recent book by Paul N. Edwards, A Vast Machine: Computer Models, Climate Data, and the Politics of Global Warming, discusses the controversy around climate science over the authority of data models versus empirical observation. Requiring an extensive global infrastructure of data gathering and weather monitoring, scholarship and policy, instruments and standards, climate models synthesize data amassed at the scale of the world. They fill in gaps between measurements, account for variations in instruments, and advance comprehensive predictions based on dynamic patterns run forward. It could be argued then that the model is a more complete representation of reality than observable reality itself.\r\n\r\nCosmology and cosmography set the stage for globalization; imaginations of the world in its entirety precede direct access to the globe through sight. Well before the Apollo photographs of the \u201cwhole earth\u201d\u009d came to symbolize an emerging ecological consciousness, visual representations and conceptual models made sensible various theories about planetary mechanics and lent an aesthetic sensibility to the political, theological, and existential ideas associated with them.\r\n\r\nWith the Whole Earth generation as our precedent, the VAST MACHINES studio identifies new technologies of planetary consequence, updates the political issues at stake and defines the current sensibilities of today\u2019s \u201cWhole Earth.\u201d\u009d Student projects explicate specific infrastructures of global knowledge and exchange as the context for local acts of architecture. The exhibition, Scales of Contact, concludes the term by reformatting their studio projects as a collection of possible worlds. \r\n", "occurrence_notes":"** Please note that Sunday dates are only from 12pm-5pm.

The current controversy is over something different: the combination of horizontal drilling techniques and high volume slickwater hydraulic fracturing (HVHF) to extract natural gas that is embedded in shale layers -- an industrial process requiring the use of millions of gallons of water per well, the utilization of a different array of chemicals, and the disposal of the resulting hazardous waste, all on a scale far in excess of what vertical drilling requires. The two drilling processes are dramatically different in their impact on the regions in which they occur, both environmentally and economically.\r\n\r\nThis research project addresses why hundreds of communities in the Marcellus and Utica shale \u201cplays\u201d\u009d have taken local legislative action in the face of a regulatory regime that has vested state government with the authority for regulating high volume hydraulic fracturing (HVHF) natural gas development and responsibility for its effects on local economies, public health, and environmental conservation. \r\n\r\nLegislative actions began in 2010 and escalated in 2012. They have included outright bans, local moratoria and land use restrictions in zoning law. In response to the assertion of local authority over natural gas development over fifty local governments in New York have adopted resolutions based on a model distributed by the Joint Landowners Coalition of New York to support state regulation of natural gas development (Joint Landowners Coalition of New York, 2012). Local governments in both New York and Pennsylvania are currently (March 2013) engaged in court cases that seek to sort out the prerogatives of states, localities, property owners, and oil and gas industry firms. Communities seeking to regulate HVHF activity face state supersession laws that have been interpreted as preempting any local action to address the community scale impacts of HVHF natural gas development. The resulting court cases pose financial and legal risks for these communities that are not trivial, and they could not be undertaken without significant resources, organization, and widespread public support.\r\n\r\nThis study analyzes why and how the local response to HVHF shale gas development has emerged. To understand why more and more communities have been moved to exercise local authority or \u201chome rule\u201d\u009d over natural gas development, we need to examine how they came to understand (1) the risks attendant to HVHF, and (2) their strategic and regulatory options. An answer to these questions requires looking at the concerns that have framed the public discussion, and at how key local actors evaluated industry and state government willingness or capacity to address those concerns. \r\nOur analysis is supported by dozens of formal and informal interviews conducted since 2010 with experts on the environmental, social and economic impacts of natural resources development in general and shale gas development in particular; state and local public officials; industry representatives; environmental advocates; and attorneys representing communities in suits over \u201chome rule\u201d\u009d authority. These interviews provided us with an understanding of how issues were framed and reframed over time, and of how key actors have adapted (Christopherson and Rightor, 2012).\r\n\r\nIn 2012, we carried out a systematic study of communities taking local legislative action in response to HVHF shale gas development in the four Marcellus states (New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and West Virginia). We began by developing a database of communities and the type of legislative action they had taken, and continually updated it over the course of the year. We conducted a socio-economic analysis to learn about how these communities compare with similar communities in their state, and classified their location along a rural-urban continuum (based on the county in which a community is located). We then used these broad classifications to select a stratified sample of communities that had passed local resolutions or legislation on shale gas development in two states, New York (which has not yet authorized HVHF natural gas development) and Pennsylvania (which has), and conducted structured interviews with the highest-ranking public official or his or her designee in each community. These interviews obtained information on the process of decision-making, the critical issues discussed in public meetings, and on community expectations regarding oil and gas industry practices and State regulation or monitoring of the industrial activities associated with HVHF. We also posed questions on residents\u2019 attitudes toward shale gas development in the Empire State Poll conducted yearly by Cornell University\u2019s Survey Research Institute.\r\n\r\nAbout the presenter:\r\nSusan Christopherson is a Professor in the Department of City and Regional Planning at Cornell University. She is a geographer whose career has been based on commitment to the integration of scholarly work and public engagement. Her research interests are diverse, but focus on political-economic policy, especially its spatial dimensions. Much of her research is comparative and she has published a series of articles and a book on how different market governance regimes influence regional development and labor market policies. \r\n\r\nSusan Christopherson\u2019s public engagement has spanned arenas from the local to the global. She has acted as a consultant to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development and to the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development as well as national, state, and local government. She is currently chair of the International Economic Development Council advisory committee on higher education and economic development. Over the course of her career she has produced dozens of policy reports and articles aimed at a public audience. The goal of these publications -- on economic development issues, labor force development, and the knowledge economy \u2013is to make academic research accessible and useful to policy makers.\r\n\r\nSince 2010, she has received a series of grants from the Park Foundation and the Heinz Endowments to direct research on the economic and social consequences of natural gas drilling. Initial results from this research appear in The International Journal of Town and City Management; Planning Magazine; book chapters and in a series of policy briefs on www.greenchoices.cornell.edu. Her most recent research project analyzes 298 communities in the Marcellus region states that have responded to the environmental, social and economic impacts of shale gas extraction with regulatory or legislative action. Her next research project will focus on assessing where and what types of jobs are created in conjunction with shale gas development.\r\n", "occurrence_notes":"Lunch Provided.

To incorporate species interactions into our understanding of large-scale ecological patterns and responses to environmental change, we must identify the major causes and effects of context dependence. In this talk, I will consider the environmental drivers of context dependence in interactions among plants, ants, and hemipteran insects. I will then consider how the context-dependent outcomes feed back to the environment to structure local communities. Through the study of a geographically widespread interaction among a myrmecophytic tree and its symbiotic ants and scale insects, I will describe how evolutionary history, historical biogeography, and ecology shape how strongly trees benefit from their symbiotic insects. I will then describe the mechanisms that structure these variable outcomes, including the chemical stoichiometry of ant-plant-hemipteran interactions and the roles of microbial partners. Finally, I will describe the effects of these variable outcomes on local and regional communities of leaf-eating herbivores and other plant-dwelling ants.", "occurrence_notes":"", "guid":"15924-1196552@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/15924", "building_id":"1000166", "building_name":"East Hall", "campus_maps_id":"53", "room":"1360", "location_name":"East Hall", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["evolutionary biology","ecology"], "website":"http:\/\/www.lsa.umich.edu\/vgn-ext-templating\/v\/index.jsp?vgnextoid=21d5d0a962c03410VgnVCM100000c2b1d38dRCRD&vgnextchannel=ae98ede5a8870410VgnVCM100000c2b1d38dRCRD&vgnextfmt=detail", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Ecology and Evolutionary Biology", "group_id":"1190", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":1196552 } , "15916-1196532": { "datetime_modified":"20131220T154113", "datetime_start":"20140113T160000", "datetime_end":"", "has_end_time":0, "date_start":"2014-01-13", "date_end":"", "time_start":"16:00:00", "time_end":"", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"People of the River Photography and Video Exhibit", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"People of the River Photography and Video Exhibit: Marcin Szczepanski, Senior Multimedia Producer, Michigan Engineering", "event_subtitle":"Marcin Szczepanski, Senior Multimedia Producer, Michigan Engineering", "event_type":"Exhibition", "event_type_id":"7", "description":"People of the River captures the life of so called ribeirinhos (river people) that inhabit the Pantanal region in Brazil.

She describes the students she cared for and the students she did not know how to help.\r\n\r\nThe script for the play was constructed out of verbatim transcriptions of the teacher's interviews and shares her exact words. Interactive discussion frames the beginning and end of the performance. A first year teacher's experience performed simply, without embellishment. A long running inquiry designed to raise questions, not answers.\r\n\r\nBy Charles Vanover, Ph.D.\r\nPerformance by Jennifer Jean Smith\r\n\r\nThis event is co-sponsored by the Survey Research Center at the Institute for Social Research and the Center for Public Policy in Diverse Societies at the Gerald R.
