SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents A Gathering of Friends: Linocut Prints
DESCRIPTION:Laura B. DeLind has been cutting and hand-printing linocuts for over 40 years. She enjoys linoleum as a print medium because it is unpretentious\, has no pre-existing texture\, and lends itself to bold\, spontaneous images. DeLind is fascinated by black and white design and the interactions of positive and negative space. Her prints are inspired by organic shapes\, birds providing a ready-made “excuse” to explore pattern. DeLind’s work has been exhibited regionally and nationally.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Art from My Heart: Ceramics
DESCRIPTION:Daria White Paik grew up in Seoul\, Korea where she received a Bachelor of Science in Nursing in 1983. In 1988\, she moved to the US where she gained her foundation in ceramics at the University of Alabama. When she works with clay\, she starts with a blank state of mind\, and her work comes from her heart. She feels that creativity cannot be learned\; only the techniques can be taught. When she touches clay\, she forgets time\, seeing the only prerequisite for art as a spark of creativity. Paik now teaches at the Ann Arbor Art Center\, is a student advisor at Washtenaw Community College\, and is a member of the Ann Arbor Potter’s Guild.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Scenes in Fabric
DESCRIPTION:Lenore Crawford uses fabric to express her love of French architecture and flowers. The pieces are inspired by photos she has taken\, and she creates her fiber art with an eye for color and realism using a raw edged fusing technique. Small amounts of fabric paint provide detail and shading. The texture and warmth achieved from the fabric itself lends the work an impressionistic softness. Capturing the beauty of everyday life and her surroundings in fiber is her passion.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Splits & Music: Snowflake Paper Cuttings
DESCRIPTION:This year’s exhibition of Dr. Thomas L. Clark’s exquisite\, hand-cut paper creations highlights work from his book Splits as well as a collection of snowflakes about music. Each of these exquisite designs are intricate works of art\, yet as a group\, they tell stories that encompass much more than the sum of their parts. In addition to their pictorial detail\, the perfect symmetry of snowflake design contributes to the metaphorical meanings. A former U-M physician\, Clark\, a.k.a. Dr. Snowflake\, has been exhibiting his snowflakes at U-M Hospitals since 1987. The annual free snowflake making workshop will be held on Thursday\, January 7 from 12:00-2:00 p.m. in the Gifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center North Lobby\, Floor 1.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Works by Belle Kogan: First Female Industrial Designer
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition presents industrially-produced art pottery pieces designed by Belle Kogan (1902–2000)\, for Red Wing Potteries in Red Wing\, Minnesota. Kogan is considered the first prominent female industrial designer in the United States\, a founder of the profession\, and one of the 20th century's most significant designers. Her design aesthetic was heavily influenced by the geometric and streamlined shapes of Art Deco. Belle Kogan Associates\, her New York–based studio\, was the first American female-led design firm. Her contracts with Red Wing Potteries produced over 400 different art pottery shapes from the late 1930s to the early 1960s\, as well as several dinnerware and kitchenware lines. Belle Kogan and her firm designed products not only in ceramics but also clocks and small appliances\, glassware\, and pieces in silver\, plastics\, wrought iron and wood.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Causal Inference in Education Research Seminar (CIERS)
DESCRIPTION:Human capital theory suggests that students should pursue more education when the local labor market is struggling\, particularly if job losses are disproportionately concentrated among high school graduates\, because these circumstances are associated with lower opportunity costs of additional schooling. However\, credit constraints and incomplete information about financial aid options can prevent students from receiving their optimal level of education. Using WARN Act data on business closings and mass layoffs in Michigan in 2003-2012\, I exploit the exogenous variation in local job losses in the year that students graduate from high school\, examining changes in college-going rates and substitution between two-year and four-year colleges. A 1-standard deviation increase in per capita job losses is associated with a small but statistically significant 0.2-percentage point increase in the probability of attending college\, driven entirely by attendance at two-year colleges. In some subgroups\, local job losses are associated with a small but significant decrease in attendance at four-year colleges. This result implies that both standard human capital theory and credit constraints have roles in guiding students' college-going decisions in the face of a turbulent labor market.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Yemeni Community: Photographs from the 1970s
DESCRIPTION:Before the decline of its industrial landscape\, Lackawanna\, New York was a lively steel city that employed more than half its population at the Bethlehem Steel plant. In this city was a small\, but unique community of immigrants from the country of Yemen. \n\nWhen photographer Milton Rogovin visited the city in 1977\, he was fascinated by the people’s interest in embracing modern-day American experiences while embracing their old-world Yemeni traditions.\n\nNow this unique blend of culture and identity can be experienced at the University of Michigan Detroit Center with the photo exhibition\, “A Yemeni Community: Photographs from the 1970s\,” an exhibition of the Arab American National Museum.\n\nBorn in 1909\, Milton Rogovin was raised during the Great Depression and became politically active as a direct result of his childhood experiences with poverty. He studied optometry at Columbia University and opened a shop in Buffalo\, New York in 1938. He purchased his first camera in 1942 and\,  in 1958\, spawned a lifelong passion for documentary photography  when he collaborated with a music professor to document music at churches.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Converging Paths: The Photography of Pawel Figurski
DESCRIPTION:Converging Paths: The Photography of Pawel Figurski explores the invisible boundary between the sacred and profane and the people who pass through those spaces\, leaving one world to enter another. Figurski focuses his gaze on the ways in which his subjects’ relationship to faith are transformed through the act of pilgrimage and through the encounter with sacred spaces. He is particularly interested in the intrusion of the quotidian into the realm of the sacred.\n\nWhile the exhibition deals primarily with religious life in Figurski’s native Poland\, the artist brilliantly captures Eastern Europe’s diverse religious worlds\, tracing a plurality of spiritual paths\, whether in the pilgrimages of Hasidic Jews to Lezajsk\, or those of Orthodox Christians in Romania and Moldova..\n\nReligious life in that part of the world is sociologically interesting and aesthetically arresting.  It is this intersection of the social and aesthetic domains that make Figurski’s photographs so captivating.\n\nPawel Figurski is a graduate of the prestigious Lodz film school. He has shot and directed music videos\, television serials and documentary films\, for which he received several awards\, including an Emmy (2005). For almost a decade (2002-2011)\, he documented Jewish life in Eastern Europe as part of the Archives of Historical and Ethnographic Yiddish Memories at Indiana University. Figurski's photography\, in Converging Paths\, explores the invisible boundary between the sacred and profane and the people who pass through those spaces\, leaving one world to enter another.\n\nPresented in conjunction with the Center for Russian\, East European\, and Eurasian Studies and the Copernicus Program in Polish Studies.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Leisure and Luxury in the Age of Nero:  The Villas of Oplontis near Pompeii - February 19-May 15\, 2016
DESCRIPTION:Organized in cooperation with the Archaeological Superintendency of Pompeii and the Oplontis Project at the University of Texas\, this international traveling exhibition explores the lavish lifestyle and economic interests of some of ancient Rome’s wealthiest and most powerful citizens\, who vacationed along the Bay of Naples. Julius Caesar\, Cicero\, Augustus\, and Nero all owned villas in this region. With more than 200 objects on loan from Italy\, the exhibition focuses on two structures at Oplontis that were buried when Mount Vesuvius erupted in AD 79. One is an enormous luxury villa that may once have belonged to the family of Nero’s second wife Poppaea. The other is a nearby commercial-residential complex—a center for the trade in wine and other produce of villa lands. Together these two establishments speak eloquently of the ways in which the Roman elite built\, maintained\, and displayed their vast wealth\, political power\, and social prestige. In presenting a selection of impressive works of art along with ordinary utilitarian objects\, the exhibition also calls attention to Roman disparities of wealth\, social class\, and consumption. Such disparities were as problematic for Roman society as they are for ours today.\n\nThis exhibition in Ann Arbor will remain open to the public until May 15\, 2016. It will also be shown at the Museum of the Rockies at the Montana State University\, Bozeman (June 17-December 31\, 2016) and the Smith College Museum of Art in Northampton\, Massachusetts (February 3-August 13\, 2017).\n\nOplontis inv. 73412a: Image of gold and emerald necklace courtesy of Pio Foglia\, Fotographica Foglia s.a.s.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Scent of a Beaver: An Installation by Kent Monkman
DESCRIPTION:Based on the rococo masterpiece The Swing by Jean-Honoré Fragonard\, Scent of a Beaver is a sculptural installation that features the artist Kent Monkman’s alter ego Miss Chief Eagle Testickle dangling on a swing between a French and English general. With Miss Chief dressed in an opulent silk and fur gown\, the work functions as a metaphor for the power relationships between the major players that shaped the social fabric\, political structures\, and economy of North America. True to Monkman’s modus operandi\, Scent of a Beaver takes on white-washed\, colonialist notions of history and overturns them\, employing kitsch as a path toward self-determination and veering away from painful\, misrepresented histories. It is this sort of conversion that is at the crux of Monkman’s powerful work—the transformation from age-old traditional stories which distort and oppress into something a little fantastical\, a bit cathartic\, and ultimately redeeming.\n\nAbout the artist:\n\nKent Monkman is well known for his provocative reinterpretations of romantic North American landscapes.  He explores themes of colonization\, sexuality\, loss\, and resilience—the complexities of historic and contemporary Native American experience—in a variety of mediums including painting\, film and video\, performance\, and installation.\n\nMonkman’s glamorous diva alter-ego Miss Chief appears in much of his work as an agent provocateur\, trickster\, and supernatural being who reverses the colonial gaze\, upending received notions of history and indigenous people.  With Miss Chief at center stage\, Monkman has created memorable site-specific performances at the McMichael Canadian Art Collection\, the Royal Ontario Museum\, the Smithsonian’s National Museum of the American Indian\, Compton Verney\, and most recently at the Denver Art Museum. His award-winning short film and video works have been screened at various national and international festivals\, including the 2007 and 2008 Berlinale\, and the 2007 Toronto International Film Festival.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Xu Weixin: Monumental Portraits
DESCRIPTION:The first major U.S. exhibition of the accomplished Chinese artist Xu Weixin (b. 1958)\, Xu Weixin: Monumental Portraits will focus on two of his acclaimed\, large-size portrait series: Miner Portraits and Chinese Historical Figures: 1966–1976. The subjects in Miner Portraits are coal miners working in harsh conditions in contemporary China. Chinese Historical Figures: 1966–1976 depicts people who lived—known and unknown\, and some of whom eventually perished—during the turbulent time of the Cultural Revolution. By portraying these individuals with monumentality and poignant realism\, Xu Weixin brings our focus to their lives and ordeals\, inviting an emotional connection. Reflecting the artist’s deep interest in the human condition\, these single-person portraits challenge our expectations and compel us to see beyond official narratives of historical events and social conditions. Xu Weixin is currently a professor of painting and the former executive dean of the School of Arts\, Renmin University\, Beijing.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CREES Noon Lecture. “Sarajevo\, My Dearest City\, We Fixed You for the Olympics\": Representations of Sarajevo\, 1979-87
DESCRIPTION:By using a line of a song by one of the most popular Yugoslav rock bands in the 1980s as a title for this paper\, I offer a reading of different representations of the city of Sarajevo in the period surrounding the 1984 Winter Olympics. I emphasize the change in the representation of the city in relation to it hosting the Olympics—the Olympics that were by the large majority of observers seen as a sheer success. Although this success resulted in a worldwide positive image of Socialist Yugoslavia and the host city Sarajevo\, in particular\, the line “Sarajevo\, my dearest city\, we fixed you for the Olympics” should not be read as a celebration of this success. Rather\, in this line\, the band Zabranjeno pušenje (No Smoking) put forward an ironic statement that can be read as an attack on the dominant modernization narrative in Socialist Yugoslavia. According to this narrative\, Sarajevo’s cultural production was perceived as backward in comparison to that in other major cultural centers of Yugoslavia.\n\nFrom this point of departure\, I present several examples of how Sarajevo was represented in local and other Yugoslav newspapers and magazines\, in official documents (among others those of the Communist Party and of the Yugoslav Olympic Committee) and in popular culture in the period between 1979 and 1987. I discuss how these representations are related to the ideas of the necessity to “catch up” to the West and to get rid of the country’s Ottoman heritage. I argue that\, in order to depict the former\, we need to understand how the uneven inflow of western material and cultural products in the country shaped this idea of backwardness. Western products\, especially the cultural ones\, would always enter the western and northern parts of the country\, before spreading towards the southeast\, translating the idea of “catching up” to the West into an internal hierarchy according to which southern and southeastern parts of the country were trying\, more or less successively\, to “catch up” to the northern and northwestern ones. This hierarchy was closely related to the notion of Ottoman yoke. According to this notion\, the regions of the country that had been longer under the Ottomans were reciprocally least capable of becoming western. \n\nZlatko Jovanovic is a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Copenhagen\, where he also has completed his PhD and his MA in history. He has taught East and Southeast European history at the universities of Copenhagen and Aarhus\, as well as several general courses in history at the Saxo Institute\, University of Copenhagen. His research has mainly focused on popular culture\, (anti)nationalism and identity-formation in Socialist Yugoslavia\, and he has written a PhD dissertation on Yugoslav rock music in the 1980s. His current research deals with competing definitions of modernity and identity-formation in the Bosnian capital Sarajevo during the same decade. As a co-leader of Ex-Yu Network\, which assembles a number of researchers from the Nordic countries\, he has organized multiple seminars on Southeastern Europe at the University of Copenhagen.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:FILM & LUNCH: Chinese Minzu Music and Dance: A Film Presentation
DESCRIPTION:The Han people are China’s most prominent ethnic group\, consisting of more than ninety percent of the population. The Chinese government refers to the remaining ten percent\, as Minzu–nationalities or minorities. The Minzu population consists of fifty-five ethnicities\, each with its own distinct music and cultural traditions. Minzu people and the Chinese government have made valiant efforts to highlight the cultural distinctions of ethnic minorities through its educational institutions and government-sponsored cultural centers. In October 2015\, ethnomusicologist Lester Monts led a group videographers to universities and music conservatories in Beijing\, Shenyang\, and Anshan\, and the Splendid China Folk Village to capture samples of music and dance of China’s ethnic minorities. This presentation is part of an on-going project to capture Chinese Minzu music on film\; it provides a wonderful contrast to the “high” art music that is generally known to Western audiences.\n\n(Image: A Miao gong performance\, using a metal bucket as a moving resonator)\n\nBiography\n\nLester Monts is an Arthur F. Thurnau Professor of Music (ethnomusicology). For twenty-one years\, he served as the UM senior vice provost for academic affairs. With Dr. Louis Yen\, he negotiated with Chinese officials to establish the Confucius Institute at the University of Michigan. He is currently director of the Michigan Musical Heritage Project that seeks to capture on film the state’s folk\, ethnic\, and immigrant music traditions\, and he is director-designate of the Stearns Musical Instrument Collection. As a senior consultant to the Chinese Language Council International (Hanban)\, he has traveled throughout China and has been awarded six honorary professorships from Chinese universities and music conservatories. His work on musical heritage has now carried over to China where he has begun to collect film data on the music of China’s ethnic minorities.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:How the Aesthetic Revolution Was Turned Upside Down\, or\, Avant-Garde Conservatism in Today’s Russia
DESCRIPTION:The methods of explicit\, “sharp” montage in cinema and other visual arts which emerged and developed during the early twentieth century are usually associated with left-wing artistic practices\, and even today they carry an aura of aesthetic innovation. However\, as the lecture will argue\, the same devices could serve very different\, politically and aesthetically conservative\, purposes. By examining the history of the transformations of montage in Russian culture during the past century\, we can better understand the roots of the popularity of neo-conservative tastes in today’s Russia. The lecture will focus on the paradoxical influence which the avant-garde film director Serguei Eisenstein exerted upon the conservative\, anti-modernist writer Alexander Solzhenitsyn.\n \n \nIlya Kukulin is an associate professor at the Higher School of Economics in Moscow and is currently a visiting professor at Washington and Lee University\, Lexington\, Virginia. His book\, Machines of the Noisy Time: How the Soviet Montage Became an Aesthetic Method of the Unofficial Culture (Moscow\, 2015) was awarded the prestigious Andrei Bely Prize and listed by the oppositional Novaya Gaseta as one of the best non-fiction publications of 2015. He\n​has ​also edited six volumes of articles on a variety subjects ranging from the history of education in the 20th-century Eastern Europe to the cultural practices of the internal colonization in Russia.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Nam Center Colloquium Series
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Dredge Byung'chu Kang\, Postdoctoral Fellow\, Women\, Gender and Sexuality Studies\, Washington University in St. Louis\n\nIn this lecture\, I will focus on queer cover dance\, or the copying of choreographed movements from Korean music videos\, which is molding contemporary beauty aesthetics among young Thai people. K-pop cover dance is a definitive social activity among Asian sissies (young feminine gay men)\, organized in an extensive contest circuit leading to an annual competition in Korea. Thai sissies are among the most passionate and proficient practitioners of K-pop cover dance\, and some groups\, such as the Wonder Gay\, Boys’ Generation\, and Millenium Boy [sic]\, have become national celebrities. I examine how cover dance establishes a new social space for feminine Thai males to express themselves through the idiom of Korean female embodiment. Semiprofessional cover dancers constitute a class of “hyper-fans” who become “demi-idols\,” with fan followings in their own right. I then explore Thai tom (masculine lesbian) gender performances that follow soft masculinity modeled on K-pop. I argue that Thai modeling of K-pop aesthetics embodies aspirations for personal and national development that index participation in a new cosmopolitan Asian sphere. Cover dance and related phenomenon in Thailand highlight recent shifts in Asian regionalism\, idol fandom\, and transgressive gender performance.\n\nDredge Byung’chu Käng\nis a Postdoctoral Fellow in Women\, Gender\, and Sexuality Studies at Washington University in Saint Louis. His research focuses on the intersections of queer and trans* studies\, critical race theory\, and inter-Asian regionalism. Dredge has published in journals such as GLQ (2011)\, Asian Studies Review (2012)\, and Transgender Studies Quarterly (2014)\, in addition to several edited collections. Dredge’s dissertation White Asians Wanted: Queer Racialization in Thailand\, explores the desire to embody and partner with “white Asians\,” or light-skinned Asians from developed countries. Dredge’s second project\, tentatively titled Amazing Waves: Queering East Asian Popular Culture through Thailand\, explores the impact of the Korean Wave and Cool Japan on the performance of Thai gender\, sexuality\, and race as well as queer Thai influence on other Southeast Asian nations such as Vietnam and the Philippines.\n\nCo-sponsored by the Center for Southeast Asian Studies\, the Spectrum Center\, and the Center for World Performance Studies.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Lecture: Esra Akcan
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan's Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning presents...\"Open Architecture\"\, a lecture by Esra Akcan.\n\nEsra Akcan's scholarly work on a geopolitically conscious global history of architecture inspires her teaching. Her research on modern and contemporary architecture and urbanism foregrounds the intertwined histories of Europe and West Asia. Her book Architecture in Translation: Germany\, Turkey and the Modern House (Duke\, 2012) offers a new way to understand the global movement of architecture that extends the notion of translation beyond language to visual fields. It advocates a commitment to a new culture of translatability from below and in multiple directions for truly cosmopolitan ethics and global justice. Her book Turkey: Modern Architectures in History(Reaktion/University of Chicago Press\, 2012\, coauthor Sibel Bozdoğan) is part of a series that aims at an inclusive survey of modern world architecture\, and is the first volume in any language to cover the entire 20th century in Turkey.\n\nAkcan is currently working on her next book on the urban renewal of Berlin's immigrant neighborhood\, through which she explores a theory of open architecture. She has received numerous awards and fellowships\, and has authored more than a hundred articles in scholarly books and professional journals in multiple languages. She has also participated in exhibitions as an artist by carrying her practice beyond writing to visual media. She was educated as an architect in Turkey and received her Ph.D. from Columbia University.\n\nAbout University of Michigan Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning:\n\nThe Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning at the University of Michigan is a leader in interdisciplinary education and research with a focus on creating a more beautiful\, inclusive and better built environment. The college and its alumni are committed to pushing the boundaries of architectural practice\, advancing global engagement\, and significantly enhancing diversity in the profession. The college offers the following degrees: Bachelor of Science in Architecture\, Master of Architecture (currently ranked #6 nationally\; ranked #1 in 2010 by Design Intelligence Report)\, Master of Science in Architecture\, Master of Urban Planning\, Master of Urban Design\, and PhD programs.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Film & Discussion Part 4: The New Latinos
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Teresa Satterfield\, U-M Associate Professor of Romance Linguistics\, Department of Romance Languages & Literature leads tonight’s screening and discussion of the film The New Latinos (1946-1965). Until World War II\, Latino immigration to the United States was overwhelmingly Mexican-American. Now three new waves bring large-scale immigration from Puerto Rico\, Cuba\, and the Dominican Republic. As the Puerto Rican government implements a historic overhaul over a million Puerto Ricans are encouraged to leave for the US mainland\, to alleviate the economic pressure. Ethnic tensions explode in youth gang warfare depicted in films like West Side Story\, etching the stereotype of the knife wielding Puerto Rican in the American consciousness.\n\nIn the film\, Rita Moreno plays the role of Anita and wins an Oscar. But for most Puerto Ricans empowerment remains elusive. A young Puerto Rican lawyer\, Herman Badillo\, takes on the political establishment\, opening the door for unprecedented Puerto Rican participation in electoral politics. In the early 60s\, the first Cubans flee the left-wing Castro regime\, a relatively white\, middle-class flight that soon forms a refugee enclave in Miami.\n\nIn 1965\, fearing another Communist takeover in the Caribbean\, President Johnson sends Marines to the Dominican Republic\, triggering a third wave of immigration. With a US visa in hand\, 20 year-old university student\, Eligio Peña\, flees to New York. Eventually he brings his family to New York as Dominicans build a new home in Washington Heights. Julia Alvarez would take the immigrant experience – her own and that of her fellow Dominicans – to unprecedented literary heights in How the Garcia Girls Lost Their Accents. In her work\, she explores the hybrid identity taking shape in a new generation of Latinos\, who are now demanding their place in America.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CANCELED - \"Making Sense of the 'Jewish Revival' in Poland\"
DESCRIPTION:Due to inclement weather\, the lecture has been canceled.\n\nWest Bloomfield Lecture Series on Wrestling with Angels: The Struggle Between Sacred and Secular in Jewish Life \n\nSince the fall of Communism\, Poland’s small Jewish communities have undergone a significant revival\, a process occurring in tandem with non-Jewish Poles’ soul searching about their role in the Holocaust and the development of their interest in Jewish culture and Poland’s Jewish past. This interest is visible in the mushrooming of Festivals of Jewish culture\, the governmental sponsorship of new museums and memorials\, as well as the emergence of Jewish studies programs at multiple universities. How can we make sense of this phenomenon? Based on extensive ethnographic fieldwork\, archival research and interviews\, Zubrzycki shows why and how the revival of Jewish culture is part of broader process of redefinition of Polishness and the building of pluralism in contemporary Poland.\n\nGeneviève Zubrzycki is Associate Professor of Sociology and a Fellow at the Frankel Institute for Advanced Judaic Studies at the University of Michigan\, where she also directs the Center for Russian\, East European and Eurasian Studies (CREES) and the Copernicus Program in Polish Studies (CPPS).  Her award-winning book\, The Crosses of Auschwitz: Nationalism and Religion in Post-Communist Poland (University of Chicago Press\, 2006) examined the relationship between Polish nationalism and Catholicism\, with specific attention to memory wars and the contested use of religious symbols by ultranationalist Poles at Auschwitz. It was recently translated into Polish (Krakow: Nomos\, 2014). Prof. Zubrzycki is currently completing a new book on the on-going revival of Jewish communities in Poland and non-Jewish Poles’ interest in all things Jewish.  She has published on the topic in several journals and edited volumes.\n\nSponsored by: Frankel Institute for Advanced Judaic Studies and JCC's Seminars for Adult Jewish Enrichment
