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:Sinking City\, Between Civilization and the Deep Blue Sea
DESCRIPTION:Jakarta\, Indonesia has a serious problem with flooding. 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. Refreshments will be served.

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:Conference / Symposium:Big Data in Finance
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday and Friday\, October 27-28\, 2016\, the Office of Financial Research and the University of Michigan’s Center on Finance\, Law and Policy will host a joint conference\, “Big Data in Finance” in Ann Arbor\, Michigan. The conference will bring together a wide range of scholars\, regulators\, policymakers\, and practitioners to explore how big data can be used to enhance financial stability and address other challenges in financial markets.\n\nThe Big Data in finance conference\, which is held in collaboration with the Michigan Institute for Data Science (MIDAS)\, the Michigan Ross School of Business\, the Michigan College of Engineering and Michigan Law School will explore ways to make financial data more accessible and more secure\, as well as more useful to regulators\, market participants\, and the public. As new data sets are created\, opportunities emerge. Vast quantities of financial data may help identify emerging risks\, enable market participants and regulators to see and better understand financial networks and interconnections\, enhance financial stability\, bolster consumer protection\, and increase access to the underserved. Financial data can also increase transparency in the financial system for market participants\, regulators and the public.\n\nHowever\, these vast data sets can raise significant questions about protecting security and privacy\; ensuring data quality\; protecting against discrimination or privacy intrusions\; managing and analyzing enormous data sets\; synthesizing and presenting data in usable form\; and sharing data among regulators\, researchers\, and the public. Moreover\, any conflicts among regulators and financial firms over such data could create opportunities for regulatory arbitrage and gaps in understanding risk in the financial system.\n\nHow should all of that data be aggregated\, protected\, analyzed\, and shared? We have recruited experts domestically and internationally who have considered these questions and published research on these topics\, or who have dealt with these issues in their professional roles and can ground the policy initiatives with real-world experience.\n\nPlease register at http://financelawpolicy.umich.edu/big-data-conference/.\n\n*Please note: registration to the Big Data conference is free and open to the public\, but space is limited. Registration will close when we reach capacity.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:John Cage: \"How to get Started\" sound installation
DESCRIPTION:Sound installation of John Cage's \"How to Get Started\,\" featuring a library of previous performances.\n\nAbout \"How to Get Started\": John Cage conceived HOW TO GET STARTED almost as an afterthought—a performance substituting for another that had been planned in 1989 for delivery at “Sound Design: An Invitational Conference on the Uses of Sound for Radio Drama\, Film\, Video\, Theater and Mu-sic” presented by Bay Area Radio Drama at Sprocket Systems\, Skywalker Ranch\, in Nicasio\, California.  In his introduction\, Cage talks about the difficulty of initiating the creative process\, while exploring the usefulness of improvisation\, a subject about which he had long been deeply ambivalent.  He proposes a col-laborative framework in which sound engineers capture and subsequently layer his extemporized monologue\, which consisted of ten brief commentaries on top-ics then of interest.  This amounted to an experiment having to do with thinking in public\, before a live audience.\n\nTwenty years after John Cage's first and only performance of HOW TO GET STARTED in Nicasio\, the John Cage Trust and Slought Foundation joined forces to create an interactive installation enabling the public to add yet another layer to the mix: your extemporizations on your ten topics of interest\, in your voice. Drawing upon Cage’s realization of HOW TO GET STARTED as a script in effect\, performers have been invited to participate in its further life\, both in public settings and in the more intimate\, specially designed recording studio at Slought.

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:Conference / Symposium:TieCon Midwest 2016
DESCRIPTION:Michigan\, for more than 100 years has been the center of the automotive industry. This industry is changing as automobiles become equipped with devices and systems that are autonomous or connect you to the world\; but Michigan remains at the forefront of this disruptive technology evolution\, doing what we do best\, letting our entrepreneurs and innovators lead the way for the nation and the world to follow!\n\nMichigan is taking Mobility and Connectivity to the next level! We’re exploring how connected technology is revolutionizing healthcare delivery and consumer expectations\; we are looking at connected technologies from a global perspective \, which industries will they impact\, what’s the effect on our economy\, are we training our children for the right jobs\, how will they change our lives now and in the future?\n\nStudies show that every connected technology-related position created in the State of Michigan also creates 6.54 additional non-connected-related jobs (MEDC/MTAM)\, and that as of 2015 the average compensation for a connected technology-related position in Michigan is over $89\,000 annually – a 48% increase since the last study in 2011 (MEDC/MTAM). Given these statistics\, it was obvious to TiE Detroit that the time is right to make Connected World – Connected Technologies\, with special focus on Mobility\, HealthCare and Global Connectivity\, the focus for TiECon Midwest 2016.

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:Japanese Prints of Kabuki Theater from the Collection of the University of Michigan Museum of Art
DESCRIPTION:Kabuki actors were superstars in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Japan. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Traces: Reconstructing the History of a Chokwe Mask
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition Traces focuses on one artwork from the Museum's African holdings: a Chokwe mask that was collected in 1905 near the Angolan city of Dundo by the German explorer Leo Frobenius. Its presence at UMMA today—almost 7\,500 miles away from the context in which it was originally created\, used\, and valued—is the result of a long and tumultuous journey\, spanning a hundred years\, three continents\, and numerous people whose lives are forever connected to the artifact that passed through their hands.\nTraces tells the stories of some of these individuals as it reconstructs the “biography” of the mask. Drawing on the Museum’s African art collection and complemented with national loans\, the exhibition is informed by research that exposes the mask’s many layers and restores some of its historical complexity. Visitors will be able to look closely\, and in great detail\, at this intriguing artwork and its fascinating story.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the James and Vivian Curtis Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Center for the Education of Women's Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund and African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Analyzing Transportation Equity Impacts using Activity-based Travel Demand Models
DESCRIPTION:Activity-based travel demand models can be useful tools for understanding the individual level equity impacts of regional transportation plans\, because of their ability to generate transportation measures at disaggregate (individual and household) levels. There are numerous population and environmental (transportation and land-use) factors that together shape the transportation equity outcomes for individuals. In a real world setting\, for example\, one’s income level\, age\, gender\, ethnicity\, residential location\, work location\, and access to various travel modes all play key roles in determining how one is affected by the transportation system. In such a complex system where numerous population\, land-use\, and transportation factors are at play\, the influence of these factors on distributional outcomes can seem impossible to disentangle. In this presentation\, I will discuss the usefulness of decomposing transportation equity outcomes using a set of distributional comparisons and scenario analyses. This demonstration uses the 2000 Bay Area Travel Survey and (activity-based) mode choice model. The findings show that activity based models in conjunction with distributional comparisons are capable of revealing the population and environmental factors that result in clear “winners and losers” due to transportation changes.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Development
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nTourism is a fast-growing services sector in developing countries. This paper combines a rich collection of Mexican microdata with a quantitative spatial equilibrium model and a new empirical strategy to study the long-term economic consequences of tourism both locally and in the aggregate. We find that tourism causes large and significant local economic gains relative to less touristic regions that are in part driven by significant positive spillovers on manufacturing. In the aggregate\, however\, these local spillovers are largely offset by reductions in agglomeration economies among less touristic regions\, so that the national gains from tourism are mainly driven by a classical market integration effect.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:\"Plasticity to Stability of Development:Studies of Cell Death and Cell Survival in the Auditory Brainstem\"
DESCRIPTION:Edwin W Rubel\, Virginia Merrill Bloedel Hearing Research Center\, Department of Otolaryngology- Head and Neck Surgery\, Department of Physiology and Biophysics\, University of Washington\, Seattle\n\nSince the classic experiments of Hamburger\, Levi-Montalcini\, and Hubel & Wiesel\, a large variety of studies have shown that manipulations of peripheral input and sensory experience can have profound influences on the development of sensory encoding pathways of the central nervous system. We have used the brainstem auditory pathways of birds and mammals to investigate the early cellular events underlying deprivation- and deafferentation-induced changes in the structure and integrity of neurons and glial cells. Our work in this area uses a variety of methodologies on in vivo and in vitro preparations of the brainstem to address three issues related to activity-regulated development and maintenance of auditory brainstem neurons. What is the nature of the intercellular signals regulating structural integrity of postsynaptic neurons? What are some of the intracellular cascades of events underlying deprivation-induced changes in neuronal integrity? What biological mechanisms may underlie developmental differences in responses to peripheral manipulations (critical periods)? I will briefly summarize our approach to these problems and then discuss recent and ongoing experiments focused toward understanding the differential susceptibility of neonatal and adult sensory systems to neuronal death due to deprivation of afferent activity (a critical period) using normal and transgenic mice\, and microarray technology.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Alaska\, Binford\, and Landscape Modeling: Approximating the Shift to Logistical Mobility During Alaskan Prehistory
DESCRIPTION:Through the lens of Binford's forager-collector model and based on site\ndistribution data\, the speaker will present preliminary evidence for an earlier\ntransition from foraging to collecting subsistence strategies than has been\npreviously suggested for Central Alaska. Seasonally-abundant resources like\nsalmon and caribou offered prehistoric Central Alaskans an incredible\nsubsistence opportunity\, particularly if stored. Clarifying the timing and causes of\nthe transition to logistical mobility will permit a more accurate reconstruction of\nAlaskan prehistory and contribute to a broader understanding of such\nsubsistence transitions among prehistoric hunter-gatherer. The speaker asks\nattendees to help her workshop these ideas\, which will ultimately culminate in her\npre-doctoral research paper.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series | Japanese Imperial Maps: Collections of Gaihozu in Japan and in the United States
DESCRIPTION:The word Gaihozu originally meant maps of foreign countries produced by the Japanese military up until the end of World War II. However\, this term is frequently applied now to maps of Taiwan\, Korea and Kwantung Province produced by its colonial governments. In this presentation\, the word Gaihozu denotes both of them. Professor Kobayashi will trace the history of the gathering of geographical information in East Asia by the Japanese military\, and investigate the destruction\, preservation\, and study of Gaihozu in the post-World War II era\, drawing upon his research in collections held in various locations in Japan and the United States.\n\nShigeru Kobayashi is a Professor at Osaka University of Tourism and Professor Emeritus at Osaka University\, Japan. He received his M.A. and Ph.D. in literature from Kyoto University. He has extensive teaching experience in Liberal Arts\, Literature\, and Human Geography\, and has taught at Kyushu University\, National Museum of Ethnology\, and Osaka University. His research interests lie in cultural geography and cultural ecology. His main goal is to understand long-term transition of the relationship between human and environment.  He especially focuses on use of resources in agriculture and livestock farming and examines the impact of natural disaster and epidemics.

SUMMARY:Presentation:P&SC Brown Bag: Understanding the development of callous unemotional traits and antisocial behavior
DESCRIPTION:Youth antisocial behavior\, which includes violence\, rule-breaking\, and substance use\, represents a major public health concern because of the negative economic\, social\, and health effects it has on perpetrators\, victims\, and families. To better understand its developmental origins\, we need to improve our characterization of the heterogeneity within antisocial behavior. My talk will focus on a dimension within antisocial behavior defined by high levels of callous unemotional (CU) traits\, which comprises low empathy and guilt and a lack of caring about others\, and predicts particularly severe and chronic aggression and rule-breaking across development. I will present research examining the origins of CU traits\, focusing on early childhood given that this developmental period heralds the emergence of individual differences in empathy\, guilt\, and conscience. My work evaluates the meaning and measurement of CU behaviors in early childhood and their role as a developmental precursor to CU traits and severe behavior problems later in childhood. I will also present findings from my work examining the importance of context and the environment to the development of CU behaviors\, with a particular focus on parenting practices. The talk will conclude with a summary of my recent research modeling the interaction of context and biology over time and how specific environmental\, neural\, and genetic risk factors interact to increase the risk that children develop CU behaviors and more severe antisocial behavior.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Access to Law for Reporters: How PACER Impedes (and Enables) Journalism
DESCRIPTION:Sarah Jeong\, a journalist trained as a lawyer\, covers how access to law affects reporters\, and why open access is important for better journalism. The PACER system (Public Access to Court Electronic Records) is the source of many reported stories in the media\, from true crime to science features to cute items about monkeys taking selfies. But its gated interface and clunky architecture throw a lot of hurdles in the way. \n\nThis event is in celebration of Open Access Week (October 24-30\, 2016)\, a global event to increase awareness about the importance of access to information.\n\nJeong is a contributing editor at Vice Motherboard who writes about technology\, policy\, and law. She is the author of The Internet of Garbage\, and has bylines at the Atlantic\, the Verge\, Forbes\, the Guardian\, Slate\, WIRED\,Vice Magazine\, and Bitch Magazine. She graduated from Harvard Law School in 2014. As a law student\, she edited the Harvard Journal of Law & Gender\, and worked at the Electronic Frontier Foundation and at the Berkman Center for Internet & Society. She is a Poynter Fellow in Journalism at Yale for 2016\, and also currently a fellow at the Internet Law & Policy Foundry.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection
DESCRIPTION:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection is the first major exhibition to examine the subject of Tibetan book covers. For Tibetan Buddhists\, books are a divine presence in which the Buddha lives and reveals himself\, and they are venerated and handled with the utmost respect. The exhibition features 33 book covers dating from the eleventh to the eighteenth century that represent the glorious iconographic array and non-figural decoration typical of these sacred items. The majority of covers in the exhibition are Tibetan Buddhist\, but the exhibition also includes a rare Bon-religion cover and two covers from Mongolia\, as well as an important pair of covers produced circa 1411 for the Chinese Ming emperor Yongle. Protecting Wisdom presents a stunning visual display that illuminates a virtually unknown type of art\, one that will charm and intrigue both those familiar and unfamiliar with Tibetan art.

DESCRIPTION:We will continue our proof of Marcus-Spielman-Srivastava theorem. Last time we end up with showing that the characteristic polynomial of summation of rank 1\, positive semi-definite deterministic Hermitian matrices is real and stable via the fact that stable polynomials are closed under restriction and under certain differentiation operators.\n\nThis time\, we will examine some convexity properties of real stable polynomials. As a result of that\, we can show that for summation of rank 1\, positive semi-definite random Hermitian matrices\, the maximal root of the expected characteristic polynomial is stable and nicely controlled when the expected trace of each summand is bounded. \n Speaker(s): Feng Wei (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Differential Equations
DESCRIPTION:In a recent work Sideris constructed a finite-parameter family of compactly supported affine solutions to the free boundary isentropic compressible Euler equations satisfying the physical vacuum condition.  The support of these solutions expands at a linear rate in time. \n\nWe show that if the adiabatic exponent gamma belongs to the interval (1\, 5/3] then these affine motions are nonlinearly stable\; small perturbations lead to global-in-time solutions that remain \"close\" to the affine solutions\, are smooth in the interior of their support\, and no shocks are formed in the process.  \n\nOur strategy relies on two key ingredients: a new interpretation of the affine motions using an (almost) invariant action of GL(3) on the compressible Euler system and the use of Lagrangian coordinates. The former suggests a particular rescaling of time and a change of variables that elucidates a stabilisation mechanism\, while the latter requires introducing new ideas with respect to the existing well-posedness theory for vacuum free boundary fluid equations. This is joint work with Juhi Jang (USC). Speaker(s): Mahir Hadzic (King`s College London)

DESCRIPTION:In Mexican American history books Reies López Tijerina is heralded as a radical\, revolutionary\, cultural nationalist who putatively took up arms against the American state during his 1967 “raid” on the Tierra Amarilla Courthouse in northern New Mexico. Starting in 1957\, Tijerina began organizing Mexicanos to recuperate the communal lands they had lost after the US-Mexico War\, blaming Anglos and their courts\, offering searing critiques of the Mexican American poverty that followed\, as well as the denigration of Mexicano culture and the systematic eradication of Spanish-language instruction. All of this occurred between 1957 and 1970\, or thirteen of his eighty-eight years of life. This lecture explores the longer trajectory of his life and thought\, particularly as shaped by his education as a Pentecostal preacher\, the apocalypse of the Book of Revelation\, the detonation of atomic bombs over Japan\, and his quest for the Antichrist. \n\nRamón A. Gutiérrez is the Preston & Sterling Morton Distinguished Service Professor in United States History and the College at University of Chicago. A native of New Mexico\, Gutiérrez received his Bachelor of Arts degree in Latin American history at the University of New Mexico in 1973\, and his PhD in Colonial Latin American history from the University of Wisconsin\, Madison in 1980. He has taught at the University of Wisconsin\, Pomona College\, and the University of California\, San Diego\, where he founded the Ethnic Studies Department and the Center for the Study of Race and Ethnicity\, and served as the campus Associate Chancellor.\n\nHis themes of his research and publication include race and ethnic relations in the Americas from 1492 to the present\; religion and spirituality in the hemisphere\; ethnic Mexican culture and politics on both sides of the border\; immigration and adaptation in the United States\; and inequality and diversity in American society. His works include: When Jesus Came the Corn Mothers Went Away: Marriage\, Sexuality and Power in New Mexico\, 1500-1846 (Stanford\, 1991)\; The Encyclopedia of the North American Colonies (Charles Scribner's Sons\, 1993)\; Recovering the U.S. Hispanic Literary Heritage (Arte Público Press\, 1993)\; Festivals and Celebrations in American Ethnic Communities (University of New Mexico Press\, 1995)\; Mexican Home Altars (University of New Mexico Press\, 1997)\; Contested Eden:  California before the Gold Rush (University of California Press\, 1998)\; and\, Mexicans in California: Emergent Challenges and Transformations (University of Illinois Press\, 2009).  His work has been recognized with a number of honors and awards\, including a Mac Arthur Prize Fellowship. He has just finished a book entitled\, The Fire of the Ire of God: The Religious and Political Thought of Reies López Tijerina and the Origins of the Mexican American Civil Rights Movement.\n\nFree and open to the public.\n\nThis event is part of the Thursday Series of the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Philip Beesley and Iris Van Herpen \"New Bodies New Worlds\" (Acadia Conference Keynote)
DESCRIPTION:Since their first conversations in 2012\, Atelier van Herpen in Amsterdam and Beesley’s Living Architecture Systems Group have been creating couture worn by celebrities\, circulated in multiple exhibitions\, and hailed by global critics: “The most powerful fashion mix of nature and technology that I have ever seen”- Suzy Menkes\, Vogue. Working within a wide community of scientists\, engineers\, and artists\, Iris van Herpen and Philip Beesley’s collaborative explorations draw from next-generation digital fabrication and computational modeling\, exquisitely tuned traditional hand craft drawn from instrument and toolmaking\, and subtle phenomena guided by contemporary submolecular physics and far-from-equilibrium evolutionary biology. Numerous cycles of samples and prototypes have been exchanged between Atelier van Herpen in Amsterdam and Beesley’s Waterloo Architecture studio\, exploring innovative new materials\, electricity and chemistry within collections that are highly complex and incredibly diverse in shape\, structure\, and construction. New Bodies\, New Worlds will offer a unique view of van Herpen and Beesley’s collaborative work. Curator Sarah Schleuning of the Atlanta High Museum will moderate a conversation between the two creators including personal reflections and in-depth explorations of specialized craft. Extensions into full-scale architecture alongside intricately detailed personal-scale designs will be illustrated in detail.\nFirst taking inspiration from Beesley's Hylozoic Series in the creation of her collection\, “Hybrid Holism” (Paris Haute Couture Week\, July 2012)\, van Herpen translated a shared sensibility for subtle materials\, electricity and chemistry into a collection that was highly complex and incredibly diverse in shape\, structure\, and material. For her 2013 Spring Summer Collection\, van Herpen presented the widely acclaimed “Voltage” collection which featured works developed in collaboration with Beesley. Finely detailed flexible meshwork structures and translucent frond components forming the outer layers of three intricate dresses were developed through close dialogue between Beesley and van Herpen's studios. Beesley contributed to ten dresses for Van Herpen’s 2014 Magnetic Motion collection\, presented at Centre Pompidou. The collaborators' innovative designs combine precisely detailed polymer\, crystal and leather components into interlinking three-dimensional fabric structures with striking qualities of flexibility\, sparkle and transparency.  The newly engineered fabrics bridged between couture and ready-to-wear. Their combined work debuted as part of Van Herpen's Fall-Winter 2015-16 collection on March 10th\, 2015 at the Palais de Tokyo for Paris Fashion Week\, and continued their longstanding collaboration for the Lucid collection\, presented in Paris on March 8th\, 2016. Van Herpen explored the concept of lucid dreaming in this collection. \nTheir Keynote presentation at the ACADIA2016 conference will be co-hosted by the Penny Stamps Distinguished Speaker Series and Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning. The event will take place at the Michigan Theater\, 5:10pm Thursday\, October 27 2016\, and is open to the public.\nParallel to this event\, the solo exhibition Iris van Herpen: Transforming Fashion\, curated by Schleuning\, will be exhibited at the Grand Rapids Art Museum October 23\, 2016 – January 15\, 2017. This will be of only seven North American venues for Transforming Fashion. For more information see: http://www.artmuseumgr.org/2016/01/29/iris-van-herpen-transforming-fashion/\nFor more information on the ACADIA 2016 conference\, including additional keynote speakers\, please see the conference website.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:New Bodies\, New Worlds: The Collaborative Work of Iris van Herpen and Philip Beesley
DESCRIPTION:Since their first conversations in 2012\, Atelier van Herpen studio in Amsterdam and Beesley’s Living Architecture Systems Group have been co-creating innovative couture that has been worn by celebrities\, circulated in multiple exhibitions\, and hailed by global critics. Working within a wide community of scientists\, engineers\, and artists\, Iris van Herpen and Philip Beesley’s collaborative explorations combine exquisitely detailed hand-crafted materials into three-dimensional fabrics\, incorporating instrument and toolmaking\, advanced manufacturing\, next-generation computation and artificial intelligence\, and subtle phenomena inspired by the natural world. New Bodies\, New Worlds offers a unique view of Van Herpen and Beesley’s collaborative work.\n\nPhilip Beesley is a practicing visual artist\, architect\, and professor whose work is focused on rapidly expanding technology and the culture of responsive and interactive systems. Beesley’s collaborative work has the potential to change how we build architecture by transforming the physical structures that support buildings\, the technical systems that control them\, and fundamental relationships with the natural world surrounding them. Philip Beesley’s Living Architecture Systems Group employs methods that incorporate industrial design\, digital prototyping\, instrument making\, and mechatronics engineering. Beesley has authored and edited sixteen books and proceedings\, and his work was selected to represent Canada at the 2010 Venice Biennale for Architecture. He has been recognized by the Prix de Rome in Architecture\, VIDA 11.0\, FEIDAD\, two Governor General’s Awards\, Architizer A+ Art Award\, and as a Katerva finalist.\n\nIris van Herpen stands for reciprocity between craftsmanship and innovation in technique and materials. She creates a modern view on Haute Couture that combines fine handwork techniques with digital technology. Van Herpen forces fashion to the extreme contradiction between beauty and regeneration. Iris’ designs require a unique treatment and creation of material. For this reason\, van Herpen prefers interdisciplinary research and often collaborates with other artists and scientists. She states: “For me fashion is an expression of art that is very closely related to me and to my body. I see it as my expression of identity combined with desire\, moods\, and cultural setting. In all my work I try to make clear that fashion is an artistic expression […] With my work I intend to show that fashion can certainly have an added value to the world\, that it can be timeless and that its consumption can be less important than its beginning.”\n\nSarah Schleuning\, conversation moderator\, is the curator of decorative arts and design at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta\, Georgia. She curated the touring exhibition\, Iris van Herpen: Transforming Fashion\, now on view at the Grand Rapids Art Museum from October 23\, 2016 through January 15\, 2017.\n\nIn Partnership with the Association for Computer Aided Design in Architecture (ACADIA)\, Taubman College\, and the Grand Rapids Art Museum.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Visionary Poetry after the Fall: Khersonsky\, Kruglov\, Sedakova\, Shvarts
DESCRIPTION:In an era when theology has become a contested space in Russia\, as elsewhere\, some poets have rejected intolerance and divisiveness to try to imagine the religious experience of the other – as Holy Fool\, forgotten saint\, strangely powerful monk\, or Jew destined for diaspora. These poets are committed to a politics of free expression\, and in their poetics of faith the limits on autonomy brought by ritual\, rules\, and religious traditions are experienced as their own form of liberation. They stand at the threshold between the secular and the sacred\, creating visionary poems as ethical acts. \n\nStephanie Sandler is Ernest E. Monrad Professor of Slavic Languages and Literatures and Chair of the Slavic Department\, Harvard University. She has written about Pushkin and myths of Pushkin in Russian culture\, and about contemporary poetry of Russia and of the United States. She has a long-standing interest in literary and cultural theory\, including feminist theory\, and has studied women’s writings in and beyond Russia. Professor Sandler is currently working on a history of Russian literature with three co-authors\, due out from Oxford in 2017\, and a monograph on Russian poetry after 1989\, from which this talk is taken.

SUMMARY:Performance:Parsonsfield w/sg Laney Jones and The Spirits
DESCRIPTION:Parsonsfield is a five-piece alt/folk band from Northampton\, MA that infuses a rowdy\, rock 'n' roll spirit into its bluegrass and folk influences\, blowing away any preconception of what you think banjos and mandolins should sound like. They weren't always called Parsonsfield (the band started out as Poor Old Shine\, but changed in July 2014). The new name was born of the inspired experiences recording two albums in beautiful\, rural Parsonsfield\, Maine\, at Great North Sound Society. \"We owe a lot to what happened there\,\" said Freeman of their time at Great North. \"Our sound really changed when Erik joined ... it pulled us from being a more traditional string band to something that felt much more uniquely ourselves. It made us the band we are today.\" Rock-and-roll rootsters Laney Jones & The Spirits are special guests.
