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.

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.

The city is literally sinking while also experiencing climate change related sea-level rise. Add to that the yearly heavy rainfall the city sees from the Southeast Asian monsoon and a population that has swelled beyond ten million due to rapid urbanization\, and it’s easy to see why Jakarta’s infrastructure is experiencing significant strain. Jakarta isn’t an isolated example of this perfect storm. It represents the future difficulty that coastal cities all over the world are likely to face.\n\nUnderstanding that lessons learned in Jakarta can have a global impact\, University of Michigan alumus Frank Sedlar set out to help with flood mitigation in Jakarta. Frank earned his master of science degree from Michigan Engineering and also studied the Indonesian language while at the university. Photojournalist and filmmaker Marcin Szczepanski and writer Ben Logan from Michigan Engineering chronicled Frank’s experience while in Jakarta working on modern solutions to Jakarta’s growing problem.\n\nPlease join us for an opening reception on Friday\, October 21 at 5 PM at the International Institute Gallery.

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 UID:44929-10012291@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/44929 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Architecture,Exhibition,symposium LOCATION:Art and Architecture Building CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160915T082349 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20161020T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20161020T163000 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.

She conducted the first focus group study of Soviet elite ideology in 1991 and participated as an investigator in Harvard University’s study of Russia’s first competitive national elections in 1993. In 2007\, she was a Fulbright Scholar in Samara\, Russia.\n\nThe presentation will seek to explain the long-term trajectory of Russian politics. It will address four major questions: Why did communism collapse? Why did democracy not take root in Russia? How has Vladimir Putin managed to roll back the democratic reforms of the late 1980s and 1990s and return the country to dictatorship? Is\nRussia somehow a prisoner of its own authoritarian past\, or is a return to democracy possible?\n\nThis is the fifth in a six-lecture series. The subject is Russia – Unriddled.

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.

They were admired by passionate fans with an insatiable appetite for images of them\, fed by a publishing industry that mass-produced colorful woodblock prints of actors on stage that could be cheaply purchased as souvenirs of or substitutes for a theater experience. Japanese Prints of Kabuki Theater from the Collection of the University of Michigan Museum of Art presents a selection of these dramatic prints that connected fans to their idols\, including off- or backstage portrayals that satisfied fans’ voyeuristic curiosity about their favorite actors’ lives\, fantasy scenes of actors in unlikely groupings\, and even death portraits of especially famous actors. This introduction to the visual culture surrounding kabuki theater includes prints by major artists such as Utagawa Toyokuni (1769–1825)\, Utagawa Kunisada (1786–1865)\, Utagawa Kuniyoshi (1797–1861)\, and Toyohara Kunichika (1835–1900).\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, the William T. and Dora G. Hunter Endowment\, AISIN\, the E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Foundation\, and the University of Michigan Center for Japanese Studies. Additional generous support is provided by the Japan Foundation and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

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 UID:30043-3321503@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/30043 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Exhibition,Museum,UMMA,Visual Arts LOCATION:Museum of Art - Photography Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161010T151755 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20161020T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20161020T130000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Cognition\, Culture\, and Complexity: Modeling the Emergence of Shared Social Realities from Individual Mental Representation DESCRIPTION:The cultures we belong to affect far more than just our practices and beliefs - they also fundamentally shape how we perceive the world\, each other\, and ourselves. Many rich theoretical traditions in the social sciences have long emphasized this “socially constructed” nature of our experience. To date\, however\, insights in this arena have resisted formal specification and modeling. In the first part of this talk\, I will show how this historical barrier might be overcome by using complex systems research to theorize how the individual\, automatic cognitive processes responsible for reflexive sense-making in situations (i.e. mental representation) will\, in social contexts\, lead to the emergence of shared social realities and collective cultural dynamics. In the second half of the talk\, I will then go on to discuss how this perspective might be used to develop more analytically precise and empirically generative ways of getting at social construction processes in real-world contexts.

Other than having interesting properties on their own\, they are particularly useful because they measure the singularities of the ring. For instance\, Watanabe and Yoshida showed that\, under mild assumptions\, the Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity is one if and only if the ring is regular. Aberbach and Li proved that these facts are also equivalent to the vanishing of the higher Frobenius Betti numbers. In this talk\, we will discuss how to define these invariants for rings that are not necessarily local. We will also discuss how these global invariants relate to the local ones\, and how they still measure the singularities of the ring. This is based on joint work with Thomas Polstra and Yongwei Yao.

Then\, we will move to the proof Marcus-Spielman-Srivastava theorem. The proof breaks into two parts: The first part is about the control of mean characteristic polynomial. We start by examining the fact that characteristic functions of linear sum of positive semi-definite rank one fixed random Hermitian matrices are real stable random polynomials. Using properties of real stable polynomials\, we will compare the maximal root of characteristic polynomial and that of the expected characteristic polynomial. The second part is about non-linear first-moment method. If time is permits\, we will begin with the derivation of certain convexity property of real stable polynomials. \n Speaker(s): Han Huang (University of Michigan) UID:35098-5096271@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/35098 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Mathematics LOCATION:East Hall - 3866 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161007T144717 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20161020T153000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20161020T170000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Citizenship Workshop DESCRIPTION:The International Center is excited to work with the National Immigration Forum to host a workshop on obtaining US citizenship through the New American Workforce program.

Facing Mirrors DESCRIPTION:Negar Azarbayjani\, director. In Persian and German with English subtitles (102 min.\, 2011). \n\nSet in contemporary Iran\, \"Facing Mirrors\" is a story of an unlikely and daring friendship that develops despite social norms and religious beliefs. Although Rana is a traditional wife and mother\, she is forced to drive a cab to pay off the debt that keeps her husband in prison. By chance she picks up the wealthy and rebellious Edi\, who is desperately awaiting a passport to leave the country. At first Rana attempts to help\, but when she realizes that Edi is transgender\, a dangerous series of conflicts arises. Directed by Negar Azarbayjani\, \"Facing Mirrors\" is the first narrative film from Iran to feature a transgender main character. \n\nThe film will be followed by a discussion led by U-M faculty Samer Ali\, associate professor of Arabic language and literature\, and Charlotte Karem Albrecht\, assistant professor of American culture and women's studies.\n\nPart of the series Contemporary Islamic Identities.

However\, not all wetlands function in the same way due to the combined effects of hydrology\, nutrient status\, and vegetation composition. Wetland ecosystem function\, such as apparent carbon accumulation rates and methane emissions\, differ significantly among wetland types and thus necessitate a distinction among wetland environmental classifications when considering wetlands in the global carbon cycle. Finally\, permafrost is common in high-latitude wetlands and effects of permafrost thaw dramatically alter the ecosystem carbon balance. Understanding the permafrost history and effects on peatlands is key to understanding the future response of soil carbon stocks in high latitude wetlands to climate change. \n\nHere\, I discuss the effects of permafrost aggradation and thaw on high-latitude wetland ecosystem succession\, soil properties\, carbon accumulation rates\, and methane emissions using data synthesis of peatland plant macrofossil records of 1060 peat cores from more than 500 sites from across the northern hemisphere. The wetland environmental type (fen\, bog\, tundra and boreal permafrost\, including polygons\, and thawed permafrost) was classified using the composition of plant macrofossils within the peat core records. Consequences of permafrost aggradation differed between boreal and tundra biomes\, including differences in vegetation composition\, C/N ratios\, N content\, and carbon accumulation rates. In the conceptual model of wetland ecosystem succession\, fens transition to bogs as organic matter accumulates and then to permafrost peatlands in high latitudes. However\, the data showed that ecosystem succession was more complex\, including numerous transitions from bogs to fens\, permafrost aggradation within fens\, and permafrost thaw and re-aggradation. Finally\, I use the records of the wetland environmental type from the data synthesis to reconstruct methane emissions from northern high-latitude wetlands in the present day and in the past.

In a series of studies\, I have borrowed theoretical constructs and models from the mass communication literature and tested their applicability beyond traditional boundaries. In South Korea\, user-generated comments on news websites\, a signature form of interpersonal interactivity\, have been blamed for distorting public opinion and fostering prejudice and stereotypes against particular social groups. My research has examined when and how user comments affect the way people process and make sense of the news and perceive reality. Results often challenged long-held assumptions of existing theories\, helped elucidate the underlying mechanisms\, and/or extended their boundaries. \n\nEun-Ju Lee (Ph. D. Stanford University) is Professor in the Department of Communication at Seoul National University\, Republic of Korea. Her research centers on social cognition and social influence in computer-based communication. She has investigated how the mediation by technology affects the ways in which people form impressions about their interactants\, process information\, and respond to group dynamics. Her more recent projects are concerned with how user comments on Internet news sites shape individuals’ perceptions of and reactions to news and how social media are utilized as a channel for para-social interaction with politicians. She has published over 50 journal articles and book chapters and her work has won several top paper awards from various divisions of International Communication Association (ICA)\, National Communication Association (NCA)\, and Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication (AEJMC). She was a Board Member-at-Large for ICA (2009-2012)\, representing East Asia\, and has served as Associate Editor for the Journal of Communication and Human Communication Research. She also co-edited Media Psychology and is incoming Editor-in-Chief of Human Communication Research.

Key to the field’s expansion is the high resolving power afforded by modern mass spectrometers which provides unparalleled clarity on the microheterogeneity that exists in a proteome at the proteoform-level. With technology advances showing duty-cycles and sensitivities that surpasses many conventional bioassays (gel-electrophoresis or western blots)\, it is easy to envision molecular biologists and clinical scientists applying TD in their daily screens. However\, omic-level screens are still largely done in dedicated research labs. Here we present innovations that attempt to address bottlenecks and promote widespread implementation of TD for molecular/clinical discovery. Highlighted are advancements in multidimensional chromatography and proteoform analytics that streamline comprehensive proteoform analysis at the proteome level. \nSteven Patrie (University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center) UID:31413-4260673@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/31413 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - Chem 1640 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160922T132426 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20161020T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20161020T173000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Economics of Wishful Thinking DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public.

Wanting to revitalize the neighborhood\, renowned place-maker\, the late property developer and patron of the arts Tony Goldman\, saw the natural vocabulary of Wynwood was its hand-painted signage\, graphics\, and graffiti. In 2009\, Wynwood Walls began\, arguably the nation’s only outdoor street art museum\, open to the public without charge. Composed of six separate warehouses\, the exterior walls serve as giant canvases for the greatest street art collection ever assembled in one place. In 2010\, the Wynwood Doors were added in what was formerly a junkyard. The culmination of the project is the Wynwood Walls Garden\, completed in December 2015. The project expands the privately owned and funded Wynwood Walls Garden to an incredible 45\,000 square feet of open space in an urban core.\n\nThe project has evolved into a living Museum of the Streets\, with new murals added each year\, attracting hundreds of thousands of people. Since its inception\, the space has seen over 70 artists representing 18 countries who have covered over 85\,000 square feet of walls\, all at the center of a now thriving\, diverse\, and inspiring neighborhood.\n\nJessica Goldman Srebnick is the CEO of Goldman Properties and the founder of Goldman Global Arts (GGA)\, an organization that produces impactful\, conceptual\, and large-scale creative projects. GGA is dedicated to Miami’s emerging Wynwood Arts District\, with a key focus on the vitality\, aesthetic\, and artistic components of all products created by the firm.\n\nTristan Eaton is a graffiti artist\, street art muralist\, illustrator\, and toy designer. Eaton’s large-scale mural work features a meticulous\, visual collage of pop imagery executed freehand with spray paint on a colossal scale and can be found in cities across the globe. His work is also part of the Museum of Modern Art NY’s permanent collection.\n\nKashink is one of the few active female artists in the French graffiti/street art scene. She wears a mustache and only paints men\, preferably fat and hairy\, looking like sensitive gangsters\, alien-looking ogres\, or shaman from ancient tribes. Inspired by both Hispanic and Slavic origins of pop art\, her work considers issues of the absurdity of social interactions through the theme of masks and the various cultural traditions surrounding death.\n\nSupported by the University of Michigan Institute for Humanities\, Chelsea River Gallery.

Even when living in our home countries\, we interact with people from all over the world. What are the skills that are needed to succeed in this global world? How do we develop and learn these skills? Recent research has shown that the answer to these questions are not as intuitive as one would suspect. Exposing yourself to other cultures does not always help and can sometimes backfire. However\, there are many things you can do to develop your global competence skills\, even if you have never left your home country! In this talk\, Professor Fiona Lee of the Department of Psychology will discuss some of this research\, and provide concrete strategies you can use to increase your global competence.
