SUMMARY:Exhibition:4\,000 Years for Choice
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition combines two projects by graphic designer Heather Ault. \"4\,000 Years for Choice\" is an exhibition of posters about the age-old practice of abortion and contraception as a means to reclaim reproductive freedom as a deeply personal and life-sustaining act existing throughout all of human history. The \"Reproductive Roots\" series shines a bright light on the many voices from the abortion care and reproductive justice movements\, using vividly designed social media graphics and notecards to inspire conversations from a breadth of perspectives. \n\nHeather Ault is a visual artist\, pro-choice activist\, and independent scholar creating artwork to shift conversations about reproductive rights and justice. She uses vibrant graphics\, affirmative language\, and historical accounts to transform ugly discord into visual narratives that are beautiful and empowering.\n\nThe exhibition is presented by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women's Studies Department. It is cosponsored by the Program for Sexual Rights and Reproductive Justice\, the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design. \n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Fusion & Separation: Mixed Media on Panel
DESCRIPTION:Mary Rousseaux's works appear to be flowing liquid that melds on the surface. The painting materials both fuse and separate\, settling into forms that depict unions. Often deep within the dense surfaces are linear elements\, which add a graceful and lyrical quality. \"I am influenced by nature and the elemental battle fought for balance in the environment”¦ Things that once held a simple position become more complex in the erosion\,\" says Rousseaux.  She maintains a large loft studio in an industrial building in Detroit\, and her work is included in many private and corporate collections.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Paperweights & Studio Glass
DESCRIPTION:The American studio glass movement started in 1962 with glass workshops held at the Toledo Museum of Art. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Snap Line on Detroit: Ink on Rag Paper
DESCRIPTION:Margi Weir began making drawings of ink and ink wash about 10 years ago using a technique that she calls snap line. A snap line is the mark made by dipping cotton twine into liquid ink or diluted ink\, pulling it tight and snapping it against the paper in an action similar to plucking a guitar string. Some of the drawings in this exhibition explore the technique itself\, and some describe the terrain in New Mexico where she lived before she moved to Detroit in 2009 to join Wayne State University faculty. In the most recent drawings\, Weir studies the skeletons of buildings in Detroit and explores her fascination with empty spaces – the terrain vagues – left by the destruction and reclamation of Detroit's neighborhoods.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Textures & Patterns: Ceramics
DESCRIPTION:The compositions in Mary Ellen Taylor's abstract ceramic pieces touch on chaos but maintain clarity through positive and negative spaces\, continuous and broken lines\, and repeating colors. Her process begins with soft clay slabs that are formed over molds\, cut into tiles and constructed into 3D shapes. Taylor creates textures and pattern on the forms from plastic mats\, stamps\, rollers and found objects that are impressed and then layered. She uses opaque and thinned applications of color for the glaze firing. Taylor\, who is a retired art educator based in Toledo\, Ohio\, earned a Bachelor of Education Degree from the University of Toledo and a MFA from Bowling Green State University.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Scales of Contact:
DESCRIPTION:Scales of Contact: Architecture & Global Infrastructures\, an exhibition of architecture research by Taubman College graduate students\, opens to the public at the University of Michigan Museum of Natural History this Monday\, December 16. \n\nTen students collaboratively designed and fabricated a modified cabinet-of-curiosities to contain select images\, drawings\, and models from the fall semester’s Vast Machines architecture studio taught by Assistant Professor Meredith Miller. Centered in the museum’s rotunda\, the white plastic monolith is punctured by multiple view-holes\, offering glimpses of the students’ globally-oriented design and research projects\, represented in miniature. The ten student projects each proposed an “earth observatory” at the intersection of a particular global system and the local environments\, material conditions\, and visual cultures that system intersects.\n\nStudio Brief:\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.\n\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 “whole earth” 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.\n\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’s “Whole Earth.” 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. \n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CBSSM Seminar: Erica Sutton\, PhD (Jan. 16)
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for our next CBSSM 2013-2014 seminar:\n\n\"A Critical Public Health Ethics Analysis of Informed Consent for Newborn Screening: An Ontario Case Study\" \n\nErica Sutton\, PhD\, Postdoctoral Research Fellow\, CBSSM\n\nSummary:  Public health ethics (PHE) is a theoretical lens often used to analyze public health programs\, practices\, policies\, and institutions.  PHE strives to find a balance between achieving population health goals and promoting individual liberty.  To reach this balance PHE scholars encourage the use of least restrictive alternatives.  However\, least restrictive approaches are often taken for granted as presumed goods and their ability to protect individual liberty and the common good is often assumed.  I examine this presumption through an examination of informed consent – implied and express – for newborn screening (NBS) in Ontario.  I conducted an exploratory qualitative case study to understand how 57 individuals involved in the lobbying\, development\, and implementation of expanded NBS in Ontario perceive consent policy for NBS.  In this seminar I will present my interview findings on participants’ attitudes towards informed consent for NBS as contextualized within the broader PHE principles of least restrictive alternatives\, effectiveness\, autonomy\, and social justice. Challenging informed consent as a presumed good and submitting the practice of consent to ethical scrutiny legitimates the concerns of those wary of consent\, illuminates the perceived benefits and risks of consent\, and creates an opportunity to mitigate risks before implementing or adjusting NBS consent policy.  \n\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Widespread anthropogenic changes to communities and ecosystems reinforce and reinvigorate our need to understand fundamental ecological questions. How do species interact? How do communities assemble? How do ecosystems function? Importantly\, how do human impacts such as nutrient enrichment and land use change alter these processes? In this talk\, I explore two main research areas that ask fundamental ecological questions in changing environments. First\, I show that nutrient enrichment can dramatically alter relationships between grasses and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi\, but that different grass species respond differently to altered environmental conditions. This finding inspires one of my future research directions\, which asks whether this mechanism influences community assembly in nutrient-enriched habitats. Second\, I briefly explore causes of variation in beta diversity (spatial variation in species composition within a community) in post-agricultural habitats. This line of research motivates a second future research direction\, which asks what effect these differences in beta diversity have on ecosystem function. Understanding these core ecological topics\, species interactions and the causes of beta diversity\, remain important goals for basic community ecologists. Today’s rapidly changing human-impacted ecosystems provide both inspiration and a testing ground for exploration of these core topics. My research program is rooted in the belief that knowledge of fundamental ecological processes and how they respond to altered environmental contexts is vital to our understanding of life around us.

SUMMARY:Performance:Mikaela Davis
DESCRIPTION:Mikaela Davis is a harpist/singer-songwriter from Rochester\, New York. Her musicianship became clear at age eight when she began to study the harp with Grace Wong\, principal harpist of the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra. Mikaela was a harpist in the Rochester Philharmonic Youth Orchestra from 2006-2010 and was a concerto competition winner in 2010. She now attends the Crane School of Music at the State University of New York at Potsdam. Mikaela is joined by Alex Coté on drums and percussion\, and Cian McCarthy on guitar\, sitar\, and keys. You've never heard anything quite like this combination before! Audio engineer Brian Moore\, who recorded Mikaela's debut album\, describes her sound as “harp and voice with an eclectic instrument mix whipped into a melancholy lo-fi sound\; an intricate balance of fluttering vocal folds and fingers on strings that blend effortlessly.”
