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:Exhibition:Exhibit: Plainly Spoken
DESCRIPTION:View a range of binding ideas that came to fruition: models that replicate books from a historical period\, cut-aways that visually reveal their hidden structure\, design bindings that interpret a concept from the text\, and artists’ bindings that play with structures and materials to create something new.\n\nIn this traveling exhibit the Midwest Chapter of the Guild of Book Workers showcases archivist and book conservator Julia Miller’s text Books Will Speak Plain. Incorporating 30 years of her notes and observations\, the 500-page handbook is aimed at conservators\, collectors\, librarians\, and book lovers\, for the identification and description of book structures and styles. Bookbinders from across the country acquired the text of the book in folded sheets and\, months later\, presented them to a jury as completed books with custom bindings.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Can Climate Policy be Economically Advantageous?
DESCRIPTION:Class meets Mondays\, March 31 - June 2. No class on May 26.\n\nThe book \"The Climate Fix\" by Roger A. Pielke\, Jr. will be read and discussed. Pielke describes his new concept of \"the iron law of climate policy.\" It dictates that when climate policy and economics are placed in opposition to each other\, economics always wins. His focus on adaptation to climate change sidesteps the unending debate over climate change and opens the possibility of effective action that places \"human dignity and democratic ideals at the center of climate policies.\" Sydney Kaufman\, who has previously led study groups on climate change at OLLI\, will lead the first discussion. Volunteers will lead discussions of the remaining chapters. Please read Chapter 1 for the first class. \n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Digital Islam: How the Internet & Social Media are Reshaping the Islamic Marketplace in Central Asia
DESCRIPTION:Internet and social media are slowly beginning to revolutionize the Islamic marketplace of ideas for Central Asians. In spite of the efforts of authoritarian governments and the region’s status on the periphery of the Islamic world\, advances in communications technology and large-scale migration are allowing Central Asians to increasingly participate in trans-national Islamic discourses through digital media.  Religious quarrels between Saudi Salafi scholars and competing styles of Islamically-inspired women’s fashion from Turkey or Egypt can now inform debates about how to be a good Muslim among young Uzbeks and Kazakhs who have no personal connection to the Middle East. A new generation of Islamic scholars educated and living abroad increase the representation of trans-national Islam\, often translating texts and popular religious media and sharing them through social media and sites supported by foreign religious foundations dedicated to popularizing piety and often “purifying” Central Asian beliefs and practices. This workshop will examine the medium and the messages in this expanding marketplace\, draw comparisons both within the region (with scholars working in Uzbek\, Kazakh\, and Tajik) and with other contexts where this process is already well underway\, and lay the foundations for a larger research project to explore the issues in detail and try to assess their social impact. \n\n2:00-4:15 Presentations followed by Q&A\n\n4:15-4:30 Coffee Break \n\n4:30-5:30 Round table discussion \n\nThis event is co-sponsored by CMENAS.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Korean-Japanese Marriages in Colonial Korea
DESCRIPTION:As is well known\, the strict administrative control over the sexual mixing of the colonizers and colonized always constituted an important element in the European colonial policies. In Korea\, colonized by Japanese in 1910\, the situation was somewhat different. Not unlike the European colonies in Asia\, the administration of the colonial Korea was predicated on the ethno-racial hierarchy in the relationship between “natives” and Japanese settlers. However\, in the perspective the Koreans were supposed to be assimilated into the ranks of full-blown “Imperial subjects”\, and intermarriage\, seen as a strong assimilation tool\, was seen by the colonial administrators in a positive light. The renewed emphasis was placed on the Korean-Japanese marriages in the end of the 1930s\, as Korea’s resources were to be fully used in the all-out war-time mobilization. By the end of 1941\, 5\,747 registered mixed couples resided in Korea only\; significant number of such marriages\, not reflected in the colonial statistics\, also took place in Japan proper.\n\nThe present talk will focus on how such marriages were perceived by the Japanese settler society and the colonized. On the Japanese administration’s side\, the expectation was that “blood ties” between the two ethnic groups would bring a “union of emotions” between them dispelling the anti-colonial nationalist sentiments of the colonized and curbing down the anti-Korean colonial racism of the Japanese settlers. The literary works by the Korean authors dealing with the issues of mixed Korean-Japanese marriage and mixed offspring\, which I will analyze in this presentation\, show\, however\, that the reality was completely different. Ethnic discrimination often overlapped with the patterns of class-based exclusion and was complexly entangled with the patriarchal customs and legal practices. We will also see that it was sometimes the anti-systemic\, “subversive” ideology and practice\, rather than “blood ties” per se that could bring the Japanese and Koreans together\, to experience solidarity in the ways the colonial administrators disapproved of.\n\nVladimir Tikhonov\n\nBorn in Leningrad (St-Petersburg) in the former USSR (1973) and educated at St-Petersburg State University (MA:1994) and Moscow State University (Ph.D. in ancient Korean history\, 1996). Vladimir Tikhonov (Korean name – Pak Noja) has worked for Russian State University of Humanities (1996)\, KyungHee University (1997-2000) and for Oslo University as associate professor (2000-2006) and as a full professor (from 2006). His main field is the history of ideas in early modern Korea\, particularly Social Darwinist influences in the formative period of Korean nationalism in the 1880s-1910s. Another major area of Tikhonov’s research is the history of Korean Buddhism in modern times\, particularly in connection with nationalism and militarist violence. His book\, Usung yolp’ae ui sinhwa (The Myth of the Survival of the Fittest\, 2005) is one of the first monographic studies of Social Darwinism in modern Korea and its relations to Korean nationalism. The same topic has been dealt with in English in his Social Darwinism and Nationalism in Korea: The Beginnings (1880s-1910s) (Brill\, 2010). Recently\, he edited\, together with Torkel Brekke\, a book on the connections between Buddhism and militarism in Asia: Buddhism and Violence: Militarism and Buddhism in Modern Asia (Routledge\, 2012). He also regularly contributes to South Korea’s liberal and progressive media\, including socialist website www.redian.org

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:13th Peter M. Wege Lecture on Sustainability
DESCRIPTION:Biomimicry is the practice of learning from and then emulating life’s best ideas to create a more sustainable world. By mimicking nature's time-tested strategies\, biomimics are learning to capture fog like a desert beetle\, preserve vaccines like a resurrection fern\, resist bacteria like a shark\, and gather energy like a leaf. Based on 3.8 billion of years of R&D\, these designs sip energy\, shave material use\, eliminate toxins\, and turn waste into opportunities. \n\nOnce a specialty science\, Biomimicry has spread virally in the last 15 years. Hundreds of Biomimicry start-ups are making headlines with nature-inspired technologies that solve global challenges and disrupt business as usual. Leading companies such as Natura\, Arup\, Airbus\, Boeing\, HOK\, IDEO\, Interface\, Levi’s\, and Nike use biomimicry in their labs as well as their boardrooms\, finding inspiration for product and management redesign. \n\nSince the publication of her seminal book\, Biomimicry: Innovation Inspired by Nature\, Janine Benyus and her colleagues at Biomimicry 3.8 have developed a methodology for bio-inspired design while introducing millions to its potential. They’ve worked with over 250 corporate clients and professors from more than 100 universities to embed biomimicry in both design and decisionmaking. They’ve been “biologists at the design table” with some of the world’s greatest innovators\, reimagining everything from solar manufacture to city planning.  In this talk\, Janine will give an insider’s view of the latest biomimicry advances on the drawing board and in the market. She’ll discuss the worldwide spread of the meme\, and how it is being heralded as a “one of the top 20 breakthrough business ideas” (Harvard Business Review\, HBR List)\, “a paradigm shift for the world of design” (Smithsonian National Design Awards)\, and “one of 10 innovations that will change the way you manufacture” (Society of Manufacturing Engineers). At this critical tipping-point for the field\, she’ll describe what’s needed to take biomimicry global while cultivating ethical thought leadership that will focus Biomimicry on what’s worth doing.  Come learn what all the excitement is about from the founder of this practical\, radical\, and powerfully hopeful approach to innovation. Hear what happens when inventors become nature’s apprentices\, creating world-changing technologies that create conditions conducive to all Life.
