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 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:Lecture / Discussion:Should academics get down and dirty with YouTube?
DESCRIPTION:Is there a role for academic institutions in online informal education? Andrew D. Maynard\, Director of the Risk Science Center in the U-M School of Public Health\, talks about the growing trend in online video being used as an informal education source by individuals. \n\nBeyond the publicly accessible Massive Open Online Courses offered by academic institutions\, the most highly viewed educational content is generated by content creators without strong academic affiliations. As online informal education video content grows in sophistication and impact\, should academic institutions be front and center of this new wave of education? And if so\, how should they be engaging?\n\nMLibrary Emergent Research Series events are aimed at better understanding the various types of research undertaken across campus\, particularly as they relate to library services and support\, opportunities for collaboration\, data management and preservation\, and beyond.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Yahoo! Seminar Series: James G. Shanahan
DESCRIPTION:Since 1994\, online advertising has grown to a $113 billion industry worldwide and has been pivotal to the success of the mobile and World Wide Web. This success has arisen largely from the transformation of the advertising industry from a low-tech\, human intensive\, “Mad Men” way of doing work (which was commonplace for much of the 20th century and the early days of online advertising) to highly programmatic\, optimized\, mathematical\, computer-centric\, and performance-driven processes that form the backbone of many current online advertising systems. \n\nTo date\, digital advertising can be divided into four generations: Generation One borrowed from offline techniques (human sales force) and pricing models (cost per thousand impressions\, CPM)\; Generation Two leveraged automatic pricing models (via online auctions and cost per click\, CPC\, pricing models) and automatic targeting\; Generation Three has focused on personalization (behavioral targeting\, ad exchanges and real-time bidding for each impression) and on new personal media channels such as mobile and social media\; and Generation Four is focusing on native and more engaging advertising experiences.\n\nThis talk\, while reviewing the four generations of online advertising\, will provide a clear and detailed overview of the business models and technologies that are transforming the field of online advertising primarily from statistical machine learning and information science perspectives in both the guaranteed and spot markets (e.g.\, real-time bidding). Open research questions will also be described. \n\nDr. James G. Shanahan is VP of Data Science and Chief Scientist at NativeX\, a mobile ad network.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:SNRE Art & Environment Gallery Opening 
DESCRIPTION:Artist biography:\n\nKatie St. Clair is currently in her final year as an MFA candidate at the Stamps School of Art and Design at the University of Michigan. This year she was awarded a Smucker”¢Wagstaff Scholarship to embark on an ambitious 800+ mile bike ride from Ann Arbor to Marquette Michigan in the Upper Peninsula. For two weeks\, she cycled along county roads\, cow pastures\, corn crops\, and Michigan’s beautiful coast\, collecting imagery and material for upcoming paintings inspired by growth and decay in the natural world. Exploring has always been a priority in St. Clair’s art practice\, traveling to countries in Southeast Asia\, South America\, and Europe. In 2006 she graduated Magna Cum Laude with her BFA in painting from the Art Academy of Cincinnati. She was granted artist residencies at Parsons\, The New School of Design\, Munich Exchange Program\, and the Vermont Studio Program. She has held solo exhibitions at NCRC Gallery in Ann Arbor\, Michigan and Global Lead Gallery in Cincinnati\, Ohio. Her numerous group exhibitions include shows at Arts Space Beijing\, China\, and at Broadway Gallery in New York City. She is currently represented by Kuaba Gallery in Indianapolis\, which will be hosting her in a solo show in 2014.\nArtist statement:\n\nMy large scale landscapes weave layers of paint into fragmented photo collages of highly detailed images of nature. I gather these images from my natural surroundings and\, most recently\, from roadside locations that challenge my assumptions about where nature is most vibrantly manifested.\n\nDrainage ditches\, land between gas stations and street medians are places that breed uncertainty. They are largely ignored boundary lands\, gathering the detritus of our culture into a tentative wildness. Unless we have a reason to be in these places\, they are glanced over\, forgotten\, lost\, or just never found. Children see the possibility of these places\; in adulthood it takes open eyes\, imagination and a willingness to explore that is rare. Every day I expand my awareness of this territory and submerge myself in experiences that inform my thinking.\n\nIn the details of my work there is a meeting place of constructed human spaces and natural environments. I complicate the interaction by cutting into the images\, so it takes longer to read them. A collage is a layering of experiences\, most of which are felt and not seen in their absence. Images that hold tense conversations\, textures that rub shoulders\, and the weaving composition that holds these complexities while also guiding direction. These choices create an atmosphere\, in spatial form rather than linear understanding.\n\nI believe that displacement shows us things we may have overlooked. The title Second/Nature derives from my process of giving these images a new space to be investigated. When we become aware of all the subtleties around us\, we open our senses to a new world and ways of seeing.\n\n    \n\n ­\n\n

SUMMARY:Performance:Apache Relay / The Lonely Wild
DESCRIPTION:Tonight's show presents a pair of much buzzed-about–and buzzworthy!–new bands. Rarely does a young band emerge with a combination of skills\, talents\, and vision fully developed. But the L.A.-based quintet The Lonely Wild is that true gem whose writing and arranging talents are surpassed only by its members’ ability to work seamlessly as a single dynamic voice. Picking up solid momentum from their critically acclaimed debut EP\, \"Dead End\,\" The Lonely Wild quickly made a name for themselves in and around greater L.A.\, opening for John Doe\, Damien Rice\, Phosphorescent\, and Laura Marling. The Lonely Wild comes to Michigan with its debut full-length album\, \"The Sun As It Comes\,\" a recording that reflects upon the times in which we live while taking the listener on a sonic journey of impressive heights. The Apache Relay was formed by chance in a Nashville college dorm when Michael Ford Jr. (vocals\, bass) met Mike Harris (guitar\, vocals). Ford Jr. happened to be looking for some musicians to help perform his own music live when he heard about Harris’ newly formed band\, The Apache Relay. Ford Jr. hired the trio\, which also included Brett Moore (keys\, guitar\, mandolin) and Kellen Wenrich (fiddle)\, to back him at a show\, and it was immediately evident that the four musicians had a unique chemistry. Since the release of their sophomore album\, \"American Nomad\,\" two years ago\, The Apache Relay\, who round out their live show with the addition of drummer Aaron Early\, have toured nonstop and gained a large cadre of fans across North America. “They've got kind of an Arcade Fire meets boys raised on gospel and Bruce Springsteen approach to what they do\, and they're called The Apache Relay. They're a fantastic live band\,\" raves The Huffington Post.
