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.

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: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: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: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:The Aesthetic Movement
DESCRIPTION:Pictorialism was the first truly international photography movement\, and its practitioners\, among them Alfred Stieglitz\, Edward Steichen and Gertrude Käsebier\, sought to position photography as a legitimate aesthetic art form. They favored soft-focus images that drew upon the conventions of important artists and movements of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries—the influence of the Pre-Raphaelites\, James McNeill Whistler\, Japonisme\, and Art Nouveau are readily seen in the images on view in this exhibition.\n\nIn 1902 Alfred Stieglitz and other Pictorialist photographers founded the Photo-Secession in New York\, with Camera Work as the flagship periodical that published images by the group. Their poetic compositions drawn from contemporary life\, combined with the use of expensive and labor-intensive printing materials such as platinum and gum bichromate\, established these photographs as complex and nuanced works of high artistic quality. The exhibition features work by the principal Pictorialists\, including Stieglitz\, Steichen\, Käsebier\, Clarence White\, Paul Strand\, and Alvin Langdon Coburn.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

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:Lecture / Discussion:Continuous Career Re-Invention: The Art of Mindful Pivoting
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for the Dean's Leading by Example Lecture Series presenting Dr. Kevin Kwok on “Continuous Career Re-Invention: The Art of Mindful Pivoting.” \n\nSpeaker Bio: D. Kevin Kwok\, PharmD\n\nKevin is pleased to participate in the Dean’s Leadership lecture series.  As a PharmD graduate from the U-M College of Pharmacy (’86) and a Member of the Dean’s Advisory Committee\, Kevin has thirty years of experience as a biopharma executive and consultant.\n\nHe is also a person living (and thriving) with Young Onset Parkinson’s Disease.  In 2013\, Kevin elected to be treated at Stanford Medical Center with Deep Brain Stimulation\, to manage his movement disorder.  Today\, thanks to this medical intervention\, Kevin is essentially disease free.  He is an active patient advocate\, espousing his new life as a “bionic-American” through a combination of medical technology and lifestyle to optimize everyday living with neurodegenerative ailments.\n\nKevin has been nationally featured on panels\, television\, and webcasts. He recently provided patient insights at an FDA Patient panel on issues facing People with Parkinson’s. He is an active research subject at the Stanford Movement Disorder Clinic\, and his data were presented last year to the US Congress as part of the President’s brain mapping initiative.      \n\nA previous partner at Russell Reynolds Associates\, a leading executive search firm as the North American Head of Life Sciences\, three years ago Kevin joined his client\, Theravance Biopharma to lead Talent Acquisition and Strategy at this evolving Bay Area biopharmaceutical company.  \n\nLast month\, Kevin recently transitioned to a new role at Theravance\, as Head of Patient Engagement\, a newly created role\, where he will lead the Company’s initiatives to foster patient centricity at the C-suite.\n\nHe is a board member of the Davis Phinney Foundation and a research ambassador for both the Parkinson’s Disease Foundation and the Michael J Fox Foundation\, where he is a patient advisor for their biomarker initiative. \n\nKevin strongly feels his PharmD education has paved the way for his non-traditional career. He will discuss this educational foundation and the ability to “pivot” as his secret to career diversity.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series | Traditionalizing Preservation: Protection of Intangible Cultural Properties in Japan
DESCRIPTION:In 1955\, the Committee for the Protection of Cultural Properties designated holders of Important Intangible Cultural Properties\, so-called Living National Treasures\, for the first time. Since then\, 350 persons have been selected as its holders. As of July 17\, 2015\, there are 115 holders of 79 items of Important Intangible Cultural Properties. Holders are recognized to have mastered waza (skill)\, which has high historical or artistic value. Holders are divided into two categories: Performing Arts and Craft Techniques. How has the designation of Holders of Important Intangible Cultural Property been effective or ineffective in preserving waza? Although as many as twenty-four actors of kabuki theater has been designated as holders\, their skill has rarely been passed on to the next generation. Professor Okada will explore the Japanese system of protecting waza in the performing arts. \n    \nMariko Okada is Associate Professor at Faculty of Humanities\, J. F. Oberlin University\, Tokyo\, Japan. Dr. Okada received her Ph.D. from Waseda University in Tokyo in 2011. Her book The Birth of Kyōmai: Inoue-ryu Dance in Nineteenth-Century Kyoto\, Japan was released in 2013 and received several awards. Her current research interest is fan culture of Kabuki and diversities of Kabuki culture. Dr. Okada is the co-curator for Japanese Prints of Kabuki Theater from the Collection of the University of Michigan Museum of Art.

SUMMARY:Presentation:GFP Brown Bag
DESCRIPTION:Mapping Partnered Sexualities and Individual Gender/sex with Sexual Configurations Theory\n\n\nSexual configurations theory (SCT\; van Anders\, 2015) provides theoretical and methodological tools for describing\, understanding\, and studying diverse aspects of partnered sexualities\, separate from solitary sexuality\, for potential use by sexuality researchers\, clinicians\, and activists\, among others. SCT is modeled via diagrams\, and our project examined the utility of these for qualitative sexuality research. To do so\, we conducted interviews with 25 gender and sexual minority participants. Thematic analysis of interview transcripts yielded two categories of themes: (1) insights about partnered sexuality and gender/sex\, and (2) practical utility of SCT. Themes in the first category (insights) suggested that SCT provides useful conceptual distinctions (i.e.\, gender\, sex\, and gender/sex\; eroticism and nurturance\; status and orientation) that allowed participants to articulate nuance in their interests\, experiences\, and identities relevant to partnered sexuality\, gender/sex\, and intersectional factors. Themes in the second category (utility) delineated how participants marked the diagrams in unique\, creative ways to index diverse conceptualizations of and experiences with their partnered sexualities and gender/sexes. Participants also regularly described the interview process as useful for articulating partnered sexuality and gender/sex above and beyond common survey measures or identity labels\, and as difficult albeit highly generative for self-knowledge.

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:Analysis/Probability Learning Seminar
DESCRIPTION:This will be the last part of proving Kadison-Singer Problem.\n\nWe will continue our proof of Marcus-Spielman-Srivastava theorem. Last time we reduced Marcus-Spielman-Srivastava theorem to an upper bound of maximum root for a real stable polynomial. In this talk\, we will continue our discussion on convexity properties of real stable polynomials. From these convexity property\,  the distribution of maximum root is more or less preserved under some linear operator. Thus\, one can derive Marcus-Spielman-Srivastava theorem using induction. Discussion of these real stable polynomial properties is independent of earlier talks and can be interesting by itself.\n\nThis talk is based on proof for Kadison-Singer Problem by Marcus\, Spielman\, Srivastava and notes of Terry Tao.\n Speaker(s): Feng Wei (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Agents of Change:
DESCRIPTION:Film Synopsis\nFrom the well-publicized events at San Francisco State in 1968 to the image of black students with guns emerging from the takeover of the student union at Cornell University in April\, 1969\, the struggle for a more relevant and meaningful education\, including demands for black and ethnic studies programs\, became a clarion call across the country in the late 1960's. Through the stories of these young men and women who were at the forefront of these efforts\, Agents of Change examines the untold story of the racial conditions on college campuses and in the country that led to these protests. The film’s characters were caught at the crossroads of the civil rights\, black power\, and anti-Vietnam war movements at a pivotal time in America’s history. Today\, over 45 years later\, many of the same demands are surfacing in campus protests across the country\, revealing how much work remains to be done.\n \nPanel Discussion\nThe panel discussion following the film will include students\, a faculty moderator\, and the Co-Producers and Co-Directors of Agents of Change: Frank R. Dawson and Abby Ginzberg.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Differential Equations
DESCRIPTION:Symplectic integrators preserve the phase-space volume and have favorable performances in long time simulations. Methods for an explicit symplectic integration have been extensively studied for separable Hamiltonians (i.e.\, H(q\,p)=K(p)+V(q))\, and they correspond to both accuracy and efficiency. However\, nonseparable Hamiltonians also model important problems\, such as non-Newtonian mechanics and nearly integrable systems in action-angle coordinates. Unfortunately\, implicit methods had been the only available symplectic approach for general nonseparable systems.\n This talk will describe a recent result that constructs explicit and arbitrary high-order symplectic integrators for arbitrary Hamiltonians. These integrators are based on a mechanical restraint that binds two copies of phase space together. Using backward error analysis\, KAM theory\, and some additional multiscale analysis\, a pleasant error bound is established for integrable systems\, and demonstrated on a conceptual example and the Schwarzschild geodesics problem. For nonintegrable systems\, some numerical experiments with the nonlinear Schr\\"odinger equation will be discussed.\n If time permits\, I will also talk about the specific problem of charged particle dynamics in general electromagnetic fields.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Development
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nWe use administrative data from 48 large garment factories in Bangladesh to examine pay differentials between women and men. We focus on sewing machine operators for most of our analysis. Wages are highly regulated\, with the government specifying\, and our firms complying with\, minimum wage rates for each operator grade level. Even in a context where the average wage of operators is only a few percentage points above minimum wage\, we find that men are paid 3.4 percent more than women. Most of the gap is explained by the fact that men are more likely to be in higher operator grades. We have exceptionally detailed skills data from a subset of the factories. We show that the wage- and grade-gaps are not explained by differences in skill levels. Rather\, men have higher grades even conditioning on skills. Next\, we show that the higher grades are not he result of factories promoting males more often than females (they do\, but the magnitude of the difference is tiny). Rather\, most “promotions” appear to happen when workers leave one factory and enter another factory at a higher grade. Males are more mobile than females\, with average firm tenure rates across their careers that are 7 months\, or 25 percent\, shorter. We explore two reasons why men may be more mobile: women face higher costs of changing factories because they are juggling household responsibilities as well as work\, and men have stronger incentives to be promoted because they ultimately want to be promoted into management\, a path that is all but foreclosed to women. We find somewhat more evidence for the latter channel.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Latina/o Studies Forum Series: Latinas/os and the 2016 Elections
DESCRIPTION:The forums in winter 2017 will be part of the University of Michigan’s Bicentennial events. Under the general theme of “The University\, the Nation\, and the Future of Latina/o Studies\,” these engagements will explore the themes of Immigration and Afro-Latinidad. The “Migration” forum will address the impact the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) immigration policy has had at the University of Michigan and at the national level. The “Afro-Latinidades” forum will focus on Afro-Latino and African-American relationships during particular historical periods and especially the relationship between these two groups institutionally at the University of Michigan. More information about the winter 2017 forums will be provided later in the semester.\n\n“Latinas/os and the 2016 Election\,” is Thursday\, November 3\, 2016\, from 4:00 to 6:00 pm at North Quad 2435. Just five days before the 2016 presidential election\, this forum will address the political mobilization of Latinas/os in response to Donald Trump’s campaign\, the community’s engagement with policy debates regarding immigration\, and the response of a diverse Latina/o community (in terms of ethnicity\, age\, and gender) to the Republican and Democratic candidates and platforms. The participants are Dr. John García\, Research Professor Emeritus\, Institute for Social Research\, ICPSR and Center for Political Studies\; Dr. Mara Cecilia Ostfeld\, Assistant Professor in the Department of Political Science\; and Vanessa Cruz Nichols\, doctoral candidate in the Department of Political Science. Dr. Silvia Pedraza\, Professor\, Departments of American Culture and Sociology\, will moderate.\n\nThe Latina/o Studies Program at the University of Michigan’s Department of American Culture is organizing a forum series for the 2016-2017 academic year. These forums will create a space for dialogues among faculty\, students\, staff\, and the Ann Arbor community on a range of issues pertinent to the local and national Latina/o community. The forums will include the participation of University of Michigan faculty members\, graduate and undergraduate students\, and invited speakers from other institutions and organizations.\n\nParticipants:\n\nDr. John A.

SUMMARY:Other:Photo-induced Force Microscopy: Nanoscale Imaging With Chemical Recognition
DESCRIPTION:Photo-induced Force Microscopy (PiFM) enables spectroscopic probing of materials with nanoscale spatial resolution (< 10 nm).  Advances in nanotechnology have intensified the need for tools that can characterize newly synthesized nano-materials.  Combining scanned-probe techniques with optical illumination provides nanoscopic spatial resolution through the sharp tip (~10 nm) with the chemical recognition provided by optical spectroscopy.  PiFM is a new and powerful technique which enables spectroscopic probing of nano-materials with a spatial resolution under 10 nm and broadband spectral sensitivity (optical through IR). In PiFM\, the response of the optically excited sample is probed directly in the near-field by reading out the time-integrated force between the tip and the sample. Because the magnitude of the force is dependent on the photo-induced polarizability of the sample\, PiFM exhibits spectroscopic sensitivity. With very high spatial resolution even under ambient conditions\, PiFM enables the real-space imaging along with chemical  recognition of a wide range of nano-materials\, from semiconducting nanoparticles to polymer thin films to sensitive measurements of single molecules. The principles and the basic components of the PiFM will be presented with examples that highlight the nanoscale imaging and spectroscopic sensitivity inherent to the technique.  Recent samples investigated with PiFM will be presented\, including: polymer blends\, nano-fibers\, polypeptides\, block copolymers\, and 2D materials.  \nRyan Murdick (Molecular Vista)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Topology
DESCRIPTION:Given a Lagrangian sphere S in a symplectic manifold M of any dimension\, one can associate to it a symplectomorphism of M\, the Dehn twist about S. This generalises the classical two-dimensional notion. These higher-dimensional Dehn twists naturally give elements of the symplectic mapping class group of M\, i.e. $\pi_0 (Symp (M))$. The goal of the talk is to present parallels between properties of Dehn twists in dimension 2 and in higher dimensions\, with an emphasis on relations in the mapping class group.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Reproduction of Species: Humans\, Animals\, and Hybrids in Ancient Rabbinic Thought
DESCRIPTION:The Hebrew Bible's notion of humanity \"created in the image of God\" (Genesis 1:27) has loomed large in discussions of Christian and Jewish conceptions of humanness. The contemporary entailments of such discussions range across the domains of law\, ethics\, and politics. This talk provides an alternate angle onto the makings of humanness found in classical Jewish sources. It argues that the rabbis of late antiquity understood the limits and makings of the human within larger considerations about reproduction\, the classification of species\, and the problem of species hybridity. The talk shows how\, at the intersection of menstrual and purity law\, agricultural law\, and temple-related rules\, the early rabbis effectively mapped a \"biology\" that sought to determine the boundaries and the overlaps between species.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AIA Lecture: The Symposium in Context: Pottery from a Late Archaic Athenian House
DESCRIPTION:The symposium was a small\, all-male drinking party held in a private home\, and it was most popular from the Archaic to the Hellenistic period with some significant changes in form and meaning along the way.\n \nThe symposium focused on the shared consumption of wine. Men gathered in a small room\, reclined on their left elbows\, and participated equally in both the drinking and activities. All men were expected to speak on topics of philosophy and politics in turn or contribute to songs and stories. The wine loosened inhibitions and made it easier for the drinkers to form bonds.\n \nSympotic drinking required specialized ceramic equipment\, designed only for use in the symposium. This paper will discuss the sympotic set from an Athenian house near the Classical Agora. It is the first well-preserved sympotic set from an individual house\, so it provides the first evidence for the importance of the symposium in a real Athenian house. In fact\, the sympotic pottery accounted for nearly 50% of this house’s crockery. The iconography on the sympotic pottery tells us something about the homeowner who chose the pots: he had a sense of humor\, and he had an interest in cattle.\n\nThis event is free and open to the public.\nArchaeological Institute of America Peter H.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Julia Sonnevend's Book Launch: Stories Without Borders: The Berlin Wall and the Making of a Global Iconic Event
DESCRIPTION:What comes to be known and seen as a global iconic event? Focusing on news coverage of the fall of the Berlin Wall and on contemporary retellings of the event\, Julia Sonnevend discusses how storytellers build up certain events so that people remember them for a long time. The East German border opening that we know as the \"fall of the Berlin Wall\" was in fact unintentional\, confusing\, and prompted in part by misleading media coverage of bureaucratic missteps. But its global message is not about luck or accident or happenstance in history. Incarnated as a global iconic event\, the fall of the Berlin Wall has come to communicate the momentary power that ordinary people can have. The event's story\, branded as a simple phrase\, a short narrative and a recognizable visual scene\, provides people from China to Israel to the United States with a powerful social myth. This myth shapes our debates about separation walls and fences\, borders\, and refugees\, and the possibilities of human freedom to this day.\n\nDetails of the book event on the website of Literati Bookstore (including address): http://www.literatibookstore.com/event/julia-sonnevend-william-uricchio

SUMMARY:Film Screening:The Florence Flood on Film: Days of Deconstruction and Restoration
DESCRIPTION:The Florence Flood happened 50 years ago on November 3 and 4\, 1966. Although\ncommunication to the outside world was limited\, Florentine film director Franco Zeffirelli\, who was editing his Taming of the Shrew in Rome\, heard about it and rushed to his beloved city to film the days immediately after the flood. His documentary is titled Per Firenze (For Florence)\, and the English version is Florence: Days of Destruction\; both are narrated by Richard Burton. The English version will be shown at this event. A year after the flood\, Roger Hill\, instructor of film-making at the Royal College of Art\, London\, documented the conservation and restoration efforts at the National Library\, Florence\, where over a million books were damaged during the flood. Shown in this film are scenes of the conservation of mud-covered\, battered books as well as demonstrations of a limpvellum and a full-leather binding\, the techniques and materials used to recover thousands of books missing their bindings. Hill's film is titled: The Restoration of Books\, Florence\,1968.This program is part of the national symposium\, “The Flood in Florence\, 1966: A Fifty-Year Retrospective” that explores the transformative effects of this disaster on the preservation field. The symposium is organized by the University of Michigan Library and the School of Information.
