SUMMARY:Other:Harnessing the Wind to Pump Water: Elementary School Outreach via GradSWE's SWEEET
DESCRIPTION:Join the GradSWE outreach team in this semester's SWEEET (Society of Women Engineers Elementary Engineering Topics). Volunteers will facilitate weekly hands-on sessions to build a wind-powered water pump over a course of 5-8 weeks. These one-hour sessions will begin in February at two local elementary schools.Please use the Doodle link to sign up and indicate all days/times that you are available. Doodle: http://doodle.com/poll/kpg7qin4fd3dwvd7 We are using this Doodle to determine which DAY of the week\, and which TIME to schedule SWEET. Use this as an indicator of the DAY of the week\, not the DATE. SWEET is a weekly recurring program for 5-8 weeks. For example\, if Monday 9-10am is most popular\, volunteers will go to the school every Monday 9-10am for a few weeks. Substitute teachers will be available if you can't make it to one of your assigned weeks.

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 A Walk Along the Shore: Digital Imaging
DESCRIPTION:Inspired by the places where land meets the waters of the Great Lakes\, Robert deJonge uses his skills with a camera\, computer\, and printer to build images that explore our spiritual\, emotional\, and physical connection to this unique place that defines Michigan. From intimate portraits of wildflowers to the grand expanse of the night sky\, it is a rich palette to work with\, and deJonge captures it with elegance and intention. In his words\, “I’m not just interested in pretty pictures – I’m interested in the story these places have to tell and the questions they ask.”

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:Exhibition:A Wall in Process
DESCRIPTION:This wall-in-process represents a snapshot into the year long collaborative project Humanize the Numbers at the University of Michigan. Led by Virginia artist and prison reform activist Mark Strandquist\, this campus-wide endeavor aims to link together community partners—prison reformers and advocates\, faculty\, staff\, students\, artists\, the incarcerated\, and their families—in various artistic outputs to foster knowledge and to reveal the human face of the Michigan prison system. \n\nWhat will emerge on this wall over the course of its eight week duration is the product of partnerships between the Institute for the Humanities and artists and prison reform activists. We have collected material from the Prison Creative Arts Program (PCAP)\, the Citizens’ Alliance on Prisons and Public Spending (CAPPS)\, Ana Fernandez’s undergraduate printmaking course in the Residential College\, Natalie Holbrook from the American Friends Service Committee (AFSC)\, the AFSC’s Good Neighbor Letter Writing Project as facilitated by Ron Simpson-Bey\, and a quilting workshop in a Michigan girls’ treatment unit facilitated by Theadra Fleming and Heather Martin. \n\nThis wall is not static\, fixed\, or ever meant to be complete. Its appearance will change week by week\, both in an additive and reductive sense. The room will also serve as a meeting place for lectures and workshops by Humanize the Numbers partners throughout the exhibit’s duration. Displaying both the seemingly mundane and the extraordinary\, the wall aims to engage viewers and garner interest in the pursuit of knowledge on Michigan’s prison system\, acting as a humanistic lens into the lives affected by our prison system on a personal\, institutional\, statewide\, and nationwide scope.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition On View: Exquisite Corb
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan's Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning presents...\"Exquisite Corb\". \n\nThis exhibition explores an undocumented private house\, the Menuserie Sylva\, in the French town of St. Dié des Vosges. This vernacular house cum architectural test site is so outwardly banal that it remained virtually invisible for more than half a century. The interior details\, however\, express the avant-garde edge of the modernist canon and are attributable in varying degrees to Le Corbusier and/or Jean-Jacques Prouvé. Commissioned by industrialist Jean-Jacques Duval at a moment when he was working closely with Le Corbusier on other projects\, the house is a site of historical approximation\, one that allows for the reconstruction of a nuanced and complex affiliation between an affluent client and a prominent architect\, as well as raising questions about the dichotomy between authorship and appropriation\, authenticated remnants\, and constructed fictions.\n\nExquisite Corb takes stock of the details\, opening up this enigmatic house for collective consideration through a series of revealing photographs by Swiss photographer Matthieu Gafsou and studied drawings\, the first and only documents revealing the aesthetic and organizational logics of the site. The representations in their appreciation of juxtaposition\, irregularity\, chance and idiosyncrasy make a case for architecture’s material\, discursive\, and narrative capacities to produce something larger\, perhaps even transcendental\, as a projected experience. Organized by Anya Sirota and Akoaki.\n\nMatthieu Gafsou (CH\, 1981) lives and works in Lausanne\, Switzerland. After completing a master of arts in philosophy\, literature and cinema at the Université de Lausanne\, he studied photography at the School of Applied Arts in Vevey. Since 2006\, Gafsou has participated in numerous group and solo exhibitions\, and published a series of photographic works\, including: Ce rêve étrange : Le Corbusier à Firminy\, Surfaces\, and Sacré. In 2009 Gafsou was awarded the prestigious “Prix de la fondation HSBC pour la photographie” and subsequently was invited to contribute to the Aperture Foundation's 2010 reGeneration2 exhibition. In 2014\, Lausanne’s influential Musée de l'Elysée hosted Gafsou’s solo show titled Only God Can Judge Me. In addition to his artistic practice\, Gafsou is on faculty at the University of Art and Design Lausanne (ECAL).\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.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Take Back the Archive: Advocacy by Design
DESCRIPTION:Purdom Lindblad\, head of graduate programs in the Scholars’ Lab at the University of Virginia Library\, gives a talk centered on the Take Back the Archive project. She says\,\n\n\"Starting with the premise that\, for making to matter in the humanities\, we must focus making in ways that encourage attention to—and advocacy for—the humane. Regardless of whether the act of making is one of production\, praxis\, theory\, or a combination of the three\, thoughtful making in the humanities should forefront reflection on human experiences and impacts. Centered on the Take Back the Archive project\, this talk will explore what it means to make things in humane\, empathetic ways—and how can we create spaces and foster relationships to focus on humane\, empathetic making in the humanities?\"

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Queering Like a State: Naturalization\, Race\, and Colonial Desire
DESCRIPTION:This talk traces a genealogy of a familiar state practice – the naturalization ceremony - through an unexpected site: the Indian reservation. Prof. Somerville explores a ritual that is not typically considered part of U.S. naturalization history\, but was carried out by federal officials in the early twentieth century to confer citizenship on American Indians under the Dawes Act. Drawing on archival materials\, she contextualizes these ceremonies within the longer history of U.S. policies and practices for producing new citizens. In stark and startling terms\, these materials demonstrate the federal state’s fantasy that naturalization could dramatize and install settler norms of race\, sexuality\, and gender among American Indians. But\, in practice\, other things could happen – and often did.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral\, and Experimental Economics (SBEE)
DESCRIPTION:We consider the dynamic relationship between trader emotions and asset market behavior. We create experimental asset markets with the structure first studied by Smith\, Suchanek and Williams (1988)\, which is known to generate price bubbles and crashes. To track traders’ emotions in real time\, we analyze participants' facial expressions with facereading software before and while the market is operating. We find that a positive emotional state correlates with purchases and overpricing. Fear correlates with low prices\, price decreases\, and selling. The experiment confirms the intuition that emotions and market dynamics are closely related.​

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Positioning Yourself for a Career Change Part 1:
DESCRIPTION:This program is the first in a two-part workshop addressing job and career transition. Participants will explore a full trajectory from the initial “I want to make a change\,” through identifying potential paths\, and on to the tangible pieces of applying for positions.\n\nProgram Audience:\n•	Experienced professionals transitioning into different fields\n•	Students whose current focus and goals are different than their previous job experience and/or degree might suggest\n•	Employees seeking a different role in their current industry\n•	Anyone else considering “shaking things up” in the job-related sphere\n\nThe first session will focus on examining and defining your professional trajectory. Participants will explore their goals\, skills\, and interests and connect the dots between knowledge\, experience\, and goals. We will work to identify key transferable skills to be capitalized upon in the job search process. Key questions will include:\n•	I know I want a change\, but now what?\n•	Who am I as a professional? What is important to me in the world of work?\n•	What other life roles am I balancing\, and how do they intersect with my career goals?\n•	Where have I been\, where do I want to go\, and how can I get there?\n•	What resources exist within myself and my environment for helping me plan this path?\n\nRegister here:  http://www.cew.umich.edu/progevents/positioning-yourself-career-change-part-1-thinking-about-your-professional-identity/20160

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Public Finance
DESCRIPTION:This paper provides the first in-depth study of the organization of knowledge in multi-national firms. The paper develops a theoretical model that studies how firms optimally split knowledge between their headquarters and their production plants if communication costs impede the access of production plants to headquarter knowledge. The paper assumes that the foreign plants of multinational firms face higher communication costs with headquarters than their domestic plants\, and shows that multinational firms therefore systematically assign more knowledge to both their foreign and domestic plants than non-multinationals. This helps explain why multinational firms pay higher wages to their production workers than non-multinational firms\, and why their sales and their investment probability decrease across space. Empirical evidence from novel data on corporate transferees confirms the model predictions for multinationals’ organization of knowledge. Comprehensive data on German multinational firms corroborate the model implications in relation to the geography of multinationals’ sales and investments.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Near Eastern Studies Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:Arab writers have often invoked the elusive legacy of the Nahda at moments of crisis as well as hope\, most recently amid the current wave of Arab uprisings. The Arabic revival and reform period of the long nineteenth century which Albert Hourani famously conceived as the liberal age and periodized from 1798-1939\, has\, indeed\, functioned as the foundational process of Arab modernity as well as a bedrock of cultural self-reflection. Historically\, the Nahda – literally “rising up\,” but usually glossed as “renaissance” or “awakening” – was not a unified process or stable actor-category\; nor did it have a single\, incontestable moment of inception. In light of a growing interest in the Nahda in English-language scholarship between September 2001 and the uprisings of 2011\, this talk will offer some reflections on the place of the Nahda in Arab modernity discourses.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Nam Center Special Screening | \"Songs from the North\" with Director Soon-Mi Yoo
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Soon-Mi Yoo\, Assistant Professor of Film/Video\, Massachusetts College of Arts\n\n2014  |  72 minutes  |  Directed by Soon-Mi Yoo\n\nJoin us for a screening of award-winning documentary ‘Songs from the North’ followed by a Q&A session with acclaimed Director and Assistant Professor of Film/Video at Massachusetts College of Arts Soon-Mi Yoo. \n\nSONGS FROM THE NORTH is an essay film which looks differently at the enigma of North Korea\, a country typically seen only through the distorted lens of jingoistic propaganda and derisive satire. Interweaving footage from her three visits to North Korea\, together with songs\, spectacle\, popular cinema and archival footage\, SONGS FROM THE NORTH tries to understand\, on their own terms\, the psychology and popular imaginary of the North Korean people and the political ideology of absolute love which continues to drive the nation towards its uncertain future. To look closely and objectively at North Korea\, a country that challenges our most fundamental assumptions about the human condition\, is ultimately to question the meaning of freedom\, love and patriotism.\n\nCheck out this review on Indiewire. http://www.indiewire.com/article/locarno-review-north-korean-history-takes-on-personal-dimension-in-songs-from-the-north-20140810\n\nAnd view the trailer here: https://youtu.be/Lv9K9ywqOlc\n\nFree  |  Open to the public  |  In English and Korean with English subtitles

SUMMARY:Performance:Alan Kelly Gang
DESCRIPTION:Fronted by Ireland’s piano accordion maestro\, described by New York’s Irish Voice as “in league with the best piano accordionists in the world\,” and with three of Ireland’s finest musicians in tow\, The Alan Kelly Gang have been taking their audiences by storm. Performing powerful instrumentals and beautifully arranged songs\, skillfully executed and soulfully delivered\, their live performances have been described by Timber and Steel as “a true collective of musicians… their mastery of their respective instruments—sublime.\" Ireland is just the starting point for the Alan Kelly Gang as they catapult themselves and their audiences through the repertoire of the Celts\, taking influence from regions including Ireland\, Brittany\, Asturias and America and combining these with original compositions that stem from a deep traditional understanding. Here\, innovation meets sensitivity as the four musicians push the conventional boundaries of traditional music yet remain sympathetic to its past\, present and future\, infecting the listener with a sense of musical delight—magical\, joyous and uplifting!
