SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Avian Vessels: Mixed Media Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Cincinnati based sculptor Karen Heyl has been professionally sculpting stone since 1984. She is best known for bas-relief limestone sculptures\, but in 2011 she developed an interest in sculpting clay using a similar relief carving technique. Out of this came an artistic exploration and refinement of birds using ceramic vessels as the starting point. Whimsical additions such as tails and beaks give each bird an individual personality. Each bird is perched on an individually carved limestone base to enhance the unique qualities that each bird displays. Heyl’s affinity for nature extends from her art to her love of gardening and the occasional golf game.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Divided Images: Fiber
DESCRIPTION:Jill Ault is an Ann Arbor studio artist working in fiber\, primarily quilts\, with a BFA degree in painting from Eastern Michigan University. Her quilts are constructed of multiple copies of an image: a photograph\, a graphic design or a painting. She digitally prints variations of the image on fabric and divides the copies into many small squares (no two alike). When she carefully reassembles and sews together the squares\, parts of the image seem to move across and down the surface of the quilt. Ault exhibits nationally at fiber and quilt shows\, such as Quilt National in Athens\, Ohio and Fiberart International in Pittsburgh\, Pennsylvania.

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:The Florence Flood\, November 1966
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit focuses on the destruction of Florence during the flood on November 4\, 1966. Among the collections severely impacted by the muddy waters were those in the Biblioteca Nazionale Centrale di Firenze. Book conservators from the United States and Western Europe were called in to help with the recovery efforts. The exhibit features a British team\, headed by Peter Waters\, which created a washing-drying-mending-rebinding system to deal with tens of thousands of books damaged by the disaster.\n\nThe two most important outcomes of the tragedy are the professional training of library conservators and the establishment of disaster preparedness and response programs.\n\nLearn more and register for the symposium\, The Flood in Florence\, 1966: A Fifty-Year Retrospective\, happening November 3-4\, 2016. https://www.lib.umich.edu/flood-florence-1966-fifty-year-retrospective

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Causal Inference in Education Research Seminar (CIERS)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThe Michigan Merit Curriculum (MMC) was a college-preparatory curriculum that the State of Michigan required of all high school graduates. A precursor to the Common Core\, the MMC was first implemented on the 8th grade cohort of the 2006-2007 academic year. I study how post-secondary outcomes change when this STEM-focused curricular reform was put in place. I show that there was a marked increase in college attendance\, especially among 4-year colleges\, in treated cohorts. Under the MMC\, community college students took substantially more STEM coursework\, and performed better across all fields\, but these gains are not observed among students at 4-year schools. In fact\, 4 year students perform significantly worse after the MMC\, which I argue is a compositional effect of the policy.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Symposium: Ambiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\nAmbiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural is a symposium and concurrent exhibition that situates contemporary discourses and practices of architecture and landscape within the context of the Postnatural\; the era of climate change\, the Anthropocene\, and altered ecologies. The symposium asks: In a time when humans have been fundamentally displaced from their presumed place of privilege\, philosophically as well as experientially\, should the disciplines of architecture and landscape architecture consider displacing themselves as well\, in order to establish new affiliations and avail new ways to approach contemporary questions of design in relation to the environment?\nBy bringing designers and scholars from these fields together the symposium and exhibition will highlight projects and ideas that are engaged with these issues from a variety of perspectives\, ranging from scale and experience to questions of matter. Participants will present research and work that use tactics of mediation to understand\, imagine\, interrupt\, and invent artifacts that exist at the large spatial and slow temporal scale of the Anthropocene.\nAmbiguous Territory will present design ideas and proposals from architects\, artists\, and landscape architects whose work challenges their disciplinary boundaries and long-held anthropocentric orientation and redefines the relationship between built and natural environments in an era of ecological anxiety.\nChairs:       \nKathy Velikov\, Associate Professor at the University of Michigan and principal of RVTR\nCathryn Dwyre\, Visiting Associate Professor at Pratt institute School of Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nChris Perry\, Associate Professor at Rensselaer Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nDavid Salomon\, Assistant Professor of Art History at Ithaca College.\nKeynotes:\nLiam Young\, urbanist\, designer and futurist\; founder of the futures think tank Tomorrows Thoughts Today (tomorrowsthoughtstoday.com)\; the ‘Unknown Fields Division’ (unknownfieldsdivision.com) at the Architectural Association in London\, and the ‘Fiction and Entertainment’ program at SciArc\nDavid Gissen\, author\, historian\, and Professor of Architecture and Visual and Critical Studies at the California College of the Arts and co-director of the Experimental History Project (http://davidgissen.org/)\nFor a full list of speakers and bios\, please visit the Ambiguous Territory symposium web page. \nAmbiguous Territory Symposium Schedule\nAll events in Taubman College Commons unless otherwise noted\nThursday October 5th\n5:00pm\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition Reception\n(Taubman College Gallery)\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: Liam Young\n(Art + Architecture Auditorium)\n \nFriday October 6th (all events occuring in The Commons)\n9:00am\nCoffee\n9:30am\nWelcome: Dean Jonathan Massey\nIntroductory Remarks: Associate Dean of Research and Creative Practice Geoffrey Thün\nSymposium Introduction: Kathy Velikov\n10:00am\nAtmospheric Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Kathy Velikov\nSpeaker 1: Christopher Hight\nSpeaker 2: Lydia Kallipoliti\nSpeaker 3: Sean Lally\nRespondent: Meredith Miller\nRoundtable Discussion\n12:00pm\nLunch Break (lunch not provided)\n1:00pm\nBiologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: David Salomon\nSpeaker 1: Jennifer Peeples\nSpeaker 2: Linsdey french\nSpeaker 3: Ricardo de Ostos\nRespondent: Ellie Abrons\nRoundtable Discussion\n3:00pm\nCoffee Break\n3:30pm\nGeologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Cathryn Dwyre and Chris Perry\nSpeaker 1: Alessandra Ponte\nSpeaker 2: Bradley Cantrell\nSpeaker 3: Rania Ghosn and El Hadi Jazairy\nRespondent: Mark Lindquist\nRoundtable Discussion\n5:30pm\nBreak\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: David Gissen\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition \nSeptember 27th – October 18th 2017\nUniversity of Michigan Taubman College Gallery\nDecember 2018 – January 2019\nPratt Manhattan Gallery\, New York

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Foreshadowing - Endangered and Threatened Plant Species
DESCRIPTION:A unique exhibit of botanical portraits that illuminates native and invasive plant species in a different light. Local artist and photographer Jane Kramer spent weeks exploring Michigan’s nature preserves and botanical gardens---including Matthaei---taking pictures of the shadows cast by native plant species. The shadow images were then transferred to handmade paper created from invasive plant species. For Kramer the shadows speak to the fragility of threatened plants and their struggle to survive in a changing environment that includes invasive species. The coupling of shadow and paper underscores the complex relationship between invasive and endangered plant species. Free admission. Open Wednesdays until 8 pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Catie Newell: Overnight
DESCRIPTION:Detroit-based architect Catie Newell’s work is focused on the tactile\, sensory qualities of the materials we use to build things: their texture\, density\, or malleability. Her investigations combine architectural research\, material studies\, and art experiments\, a strategy she began as a student that now defines her career.\n\nThe most important element in her formal vocabulary is light\, not only as a “material” in its own right\, but also as a condition. Varying in strength\, form\, and duration\, light constructs architecture as a situational experience rather than a fixed space. Newell’s fascination with light is a fascination with darkness. Through urban interventions\, installations\, and photographs\, she investigates how darkness creates alternate environments\, with unseen geographies\, untold histories\, and secret identities.\n\nNewell\, assistant professor of architecture at U-M Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, is a recent recipient of the Rome Prize in architecture. Overnight includes photographs from her Rome project as well as new photography from the series Nightly\, featuring nighttime images of Detroit streetscapes and interiors\, alongside a site-specific sculptural installation commissioned by the Museum.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manuel Álvarez Bravo: Mexico’s Poet of Light
DESCRIPTION:Manuel Álvarez Bravo spent nearly his entire career photographing his native Mexico. His style drew upon numerous international influences\, ranging from the Modernism of Edward Weston and Tina Modotti\, whom he met when they spent time in Mexico in the 1920s\, to the formally exquisite photojournalism of Henri Cartier-Bresson and Walker Evans\, whose work he knew in New York\, and the Surrealism of André Breton\, who visited Mexico around 1940.\n\nAlthough not strictly Surrealist\, many of Álvarez Bravo’s works manifest a similarly fantastical mood\; one of the artist’s most arresting qualities is his ability to imbue scenes of everyday life with an otherworldly\, metaphysical power. The twenty-three photographs in the exhibition\, drawn from UMMA’s collections\, show the artist’s ability to synthesize a personal—even nationalistic—style that merged the motifs of Mexican religious and indigenous works and plant forms (such as agave leaves) with a Modernist approach to image making. Throughout\, the presence of light as a wondrous metaphor and revealer of life animates even the emptiest and most silent of Álvarez Bravo’s scenes.\n\n**Special hours Sundays: 12–5pm\, CLOSED Mondays

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mira Henry: The View Inside
DESCRIPTION:Before joining the faculty of the Southern California Institute of Architecture in Los Angeles\, Mira Henry spent several years as a project architect\, immersed in the everyday\, banal details of how buildings get built: construction drawings\, material specs\, and building codes. She became an expert in seeing the world the way an architect sees it. But as a progressive architectural thinker\, Henry’s inspiration has been to deconstruct that vision\, to “unsee” the very forms and representations that constitute an architect’s basic language.\n\nThrough speculative experiments and conceptual drawings Henry discovers in static architectural details an unsettling range of figurative expression\, including\, for example\, the way the profiles of roof eaves resemble human heads. Wallpaper\, with its ability to mask\, transform\, or animate a space\, is also a prominent element in her work. Her projects explore how these features animate our subjective experience—what she calls our “shifting fantasies”—of architectural space.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Health\, History\, Demography & Development (H2D2)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nOutreach workers are widely used to increase the access to health services\, particularly for minority groups. The difference in ethnicity of an outreach worker and that of a prospective patient can limit the success of such efforts. Using a field experiment in Nepal\, we investigate the extent of such barriers and if differential incentives can help offset them. We varied the amount of financial incentives provided to health outreach workers by the ethnicity of the client they recruited for a free sugar-level assessment. We also varied the amount the clients received for appearing for the assessment. We find that the barriers due to ethnicity are high. Even a highly differential incentive in the ratio of 5:2\, geared toward encouraging the workers to recruit clients from an ethnic group different than their own\, is insufficient to fully offset the barriers. In sub-group analysis\, we find suggestive evidence that differential incentives to advantaged outreach workers have the potential to improve access for traditionally disadvantaged groups. We also find that the advantaged and disadvantaged health workers face different amounts of barriers to outreach efforts. Financial incentives to the clients had no effect on their decision to appear for the assessment.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Medieval Lunch. Lulling and Soothing in 'Lullay lullay little child’
DESCRIPTION:This paper examines a “Lullay lullay littel child\, why wepëstou so sore?” our earliest witness to what we easily label as a “lullaby.” It seeks to pull apart this quick identification and really put pressure on what the term “lullaby” carries with it\, and what we bring to a poem when we apply this label. It at once uses the categorical type to put pressure on the particular poem and the particular poem to put pressure on the category. The crux of understanding the history of the lullaby lies in the essential concept of soothing. This paper traces the meaning back from our modern sense based on comfort to the medieval idea of truth to propose that the truth-telling capacity of the lullaby in and of itself provided a source of comfort for its audience (or performer).

SUMMARY:Meeting:Social Area Brown Bag
DESCRIPTION:The behavioral ecology of psychological variation: population density\, relatedness\, and disease\n\nRecent work has documented a wide range of important psychological differences both between and within societies. Multiple explanations have been proposed to understand why such differences exist\, including historical philosophies\, subsistence methods\, social mobility\, social class\, climatic stresses\, and religion. With the growing body of theory and data\, some broader questions are becoming pertinent. What are the foundational dimensions of culture? What are the origins of psychological variation between groups? I propose that a behavioral ecological approach\, particularly the idea of phenotypic plasticity\, can (1) help unite existing explanations\, (2) generate novel predictions\, and (3) ultimately facilitate the creation of an ecological taxonomy of cultures\, from which one might derive a rich set of predictions with respect to psychological variation across human groups. I will focus on relevant work and predictions on the psychological effects of population density\, genetic relatedness\, and pathogen prevalence.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Importance of Aperture: The Scenic Illusion Paintings (通景画) of the Forbidden City and the Vestiges of Italian Scenography?
DESCRIPTION:With the restoration of the Juanqin zhai within the Forbidden City\, the scenic illusion paintings commissioned by the emperor Qianlong have received unprecedented attention. The scholarly literature in both Chinese and English on scenic illusion painting has traced a direct line of descent from the Jesuit painter Andrea Pozzo’s painting for ecclesiastical spaces. However\, the discovery of one such scenic illusion painting that had originally hung as a stage backdrop furnishes visual evidence that speaks to the importance of Italian scenic design for the stage in these paintings\, and allows us to see them quite literally in a new perspective. In this lecture\, I address the importance of the training of the Italian painters who came to Beijing\, Gherardini and Castiglione\, in the Bolognese school of polyfocal perspectivalism\, and most crucially\, show how monofocal perspectivalism was understood by Chinese artists and theorists in terms of proportional representation. Perspectivalism is so often made to bear the weight of indexing European contact with Chinese artists\; this material crucially allows us to open the conception of perspectivalism and to reduce the emphasis on monofocal perspective in scholarly thinking regarding the contact of Chinese artists with the west.\n\n*Image: The Juanqinzhai of the Forbidden City\n\nBiography\n\nSophie Volpp is Associate Professor of Chinese and Comparative Literature at the University of California Berkeley. The author of Worldly Stage: Theatricality in Seventeenth-Century China\, she is completing a book on literary objects in seventeenth- and eighteenth-century Chinese fiction.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Michigan Wonderland Gems & Jewels
DESCRIPTION:Betsy Lehndorff’s jewelry is influenced by her life in Hubbard Lake in northeastern Michigan. Using her stone cutting and silversmithing skills\, she takes on six subjects that impact her isolated world: water\, winter\, plants\, critters\, rocks and the heavens. Her work\, often representational and sometimes narrative\, challenges the idea of jewelry as a status symbol. Lehndorff was born and raised in Ann Arbor\, and lived in Colorado until 2012. She is a granddaughter of renowned architect Albert Kahn (Hill Auditorium and the “Old Main” U-M Hospital) and daughter of Dr. Edgar A. Kahn\, who headed the neurosurgery department at the U-M Hospital in the 1960s.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Financial/Actuarial Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:The share of market making conducted by high-frequency trading (HFT) firms has been rising steadily. A distinguishing feature of HFTs is that they trade intraday\, ending the day flat. To shed light on the economics of HFTs\, and in a departure from existing market making theories\, we model a profit maximizer HFT that has access to unlimited leverage intraday but must fund any end-of-day inventory at an exogenously determined cost. We provide a complete solution to the discrete-time control problem using the invariant concave structure of the value function. We find that smooth fit holds on the boundaries\, and hence the value function is continuously differentiable in the inventory level at any time. \nEven though the inventory costs only occur at the end of the day\, they impact intraday price and liquidity dynamics. This gives rise to an intraday endogenous price impact mechanism. As time approaches the end of the trading day\, the sensitivity of prices to inventory levels intensifies\, making price impact stronger and widening bid-ask spreads. Moreover\, imbalance of buy and sell orders may catalyze hikes and drops of prices\, even under fixed supply and demand functions. Empirically\, we show that these predictions are borne out in the U.S. Treasury market\, where bid-ask spreads and price impact tend to rise towards the end of the day. Furthermore\, price movements are negatively correlated with changes in inventory levels as measured by the cumulative net trading volume.\n\n(joint work with Tobias Adrian\, Erik Vogt\, and Hongzhong Zhang) Speaker(s): Agostino Capponi (Columbia University)

SUMMARY:Other:Targeting Privileged First Responders in Electrophile Signaling
DESCRIPTION:The precisely timed and spatially regulated chemical signals are the essence of biochemical redox signaling. However\, defining the precise biological impacts of localized signals that engage with specific protein targets under physiologic conditions has proven to be highly challenging. This abstract presents a unique set of proximity-directed chemical tools that enables powerful interrogation into functional consequences of on-target redox events through precision redox targeting in living systems. With this in vivo-validated redox-targeting toolset\, we identify isozyme-specific “first responders” sufficient to drive phenotypic responses at organismal level. Our unique chemical biology toolset sets the stage for ruling in gain-of-function (or dominant loss-of-function) redox modifications and relating them to phenotype in an unbiased experiment that is not hampered by functional redundancy.\nYimon Aye (Cornell University)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Algebraic Geometry
DESCRIPTION:The study of the birational group of Fano hypersurfaces was undertaken by Fano in dimension three\, and has lead to the proof\, by Iskovskikh and Manin\, that smooth quartic threefolds are not rational.\nTheir work eventually led to the notion of birational rigidity. In this talk I will overview the problem. I will start from Segre and Manin's theorem on cubic surfaces over nonclosed fields\, and explain how similar ideas can be used to establish birational rigidity in higher dimensions.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Analysis/Probability
DESCRIPTION:The lattice formulation of quantum Yang-Mills theory allows for all quantities to be computed in terms of well-defined random matrix integrals. In this talk\, we consider the case of dimension two\, for which a continuum limit (due to Migdal-Witten) is known and exactly solvable. We discuss two mysterious occurrences of stochastic analysis in this setting: (1) the appearance of GUE integrals arising from heat kernel asymptotics and complex-analytic integrals\; (2) an adaptation of stochastic calculus to \"Gaussian\" free fields that have indefinite covariance matrix. These results fall under the author's program of investigating the relationship between lattice and continuum quantum gauge theories.\n Speaker(s): Timothy Nguyen (Michigan State University)

SUMMARY:Performance:The Dustbowl Revival
DESCRIPTION:Bluegrass. Swing. Hot jazz. Prewar blues. Southern soul. New Orleans funk. The Dustbowl Revival is what you could call an American roots orchestra with eight full-time members — and they play it all\, mashing the sounds of traditional American music into a genre-hopping\, time-bending dance party that coaxes new fire out of familiar coal. This isn’t a throwback band. It’s a celebration of the sounds that have kept America moving for more than a century\, performed with all the flair of a medicine show and rooted in the sweat and swagger of a juke joint song swap.
