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

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Causal Inference in Education Research Seminar (CIERS)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nWhile few measurable characteristics are correlated with a teacher's effectiveness at improving students' exam scores\, teachers do often gain in effectiveness as they accumulate experience\, particularly in their first few years of teaching. The distribution of teacher quality is already stacked against students of color and economically disadvantaged students\; if these students are also exposed to more teacher turnover\, this will only perpetuate inequities in the educational system. Using administrative data on teachers hired in Michigan public schools between 2004 and 2009\, we seek to determine what characteristics of schools\, students\, and teachers might predict whether a teacher will leave his or her first teaching job and for what type of new position\, if applicable. We begin with a multinomial logit framework in which we compare the probabilities of several different turnover outcomes against the base case of a teacher staying in his or her first job for five years\; we continue by using a survival analysis framework to look more closely at year-by-year transitions. In line with other studies of teacher turnover such as Boyd et al. (2002) and Clotfelter et al. (2006)\, we find that teachers are more likely to leave schools with more black students and more low-performing students\; we also find that teachers at charter schools are more likely to leave than their counterparts at traditional public schools.

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:Class / Instruction:Why Are We Sending Innocent People to Prison?
DESCRIPTION:The discovery of DNA has exposed awful errors in our criminal justice system. Almost 1\,800 people serving time in prison have been exonerated.  Who are they and how did this happen? \n\nLast year alone five people on death row were exonerated while waiting to be executed.  The Hon. Donald E. Shelton\, Director of the Criminology and Criminal Justice Program at UM Dearborn explores how these innocent people ended up in prison and what changes need to be made to prevent such miscarriages of justice in the future.\n\nThis study group for those 50 and over will meet for 90 minutes on Wednesday\, November 16.

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:Presentation:Bonderman Info Session (CGIS Office)
DESCRIPTION:The Bonderman Fellowship offers graduating LSA seniors $20\,000 to travel the world. They must travel to 6 countries in 2 regions over the course of 8 months and are expected to immerse themselves in independent and enriching explorations. Bonderman Fellows engage with cultures\, people\, and areas of the world with which they are not familiar\, providing them the opportunity to develop entirely new perspectives.\n\nUM is one of only two schools—along with the University of Washington—to offer the Bonderman award. David Bonderman traveled internationally as a Sheldon Fellow after graduating from Harvard Law School in the 1960s\, and that experience shaped the rest of his life. He created the Bonderman Travel Fellowship in 1995 to provide students with a similar opportunity. Fellows make their own travel itineraries and\, because this is meant to be an individual experience\, cannot engage in formal study at a foreign university\, conduct formal research\, or travel with a guest or organized group.\n\nPizza and other refreshments will be served at all Bonderman info sessions.\n\nThe Bonderman info sessions in the CGIS office are back-to-back sessions without additional time for questions after the allotted 30 minutes.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Brown Bag Seminar | A Hot Metallic Hydrogen Cloud Around QCD Axion Stars
DESCRIPTION:Axion stars are compact\, dense clumps of axions that can form during the cosmological evolution of the universe. Given their small size\, their effects on cosmological observables are negligible. We demonstrate that primordial axion stars can accumulate a cloud of baryons. Furthermore\, this cloud of baryons could reach a sufficiently dense state that it can burn axions and become hot. This leads to potential point source observables with a blackbody spectrum peaked over a range of frequencies depending on the axion star properties.

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:Student Arithmetic
DESCRIPTION:A rigid-analytic space is an analytic variety over a non-archimedean field\, e.g. the p-adic rationals. Pioneered by Tate in the early 1960's in order to construct uniformizations of certain elliptic curves\, the theory has found many striking applications in arithmetic and algebraic geometry. I will discuss the basic theory of rigid spaces and explain their relationship to schemes\, Berkovich spaces\, and formal geometry. Speaker(s): Matt Stevenson (UM)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:ASP Lecture | 'It Seems to Belong to Dreamland Rather than Reality': HFB Lynch and the Making of 'Armenia'
DESCRIPTION:HFB Lynch’s \"Armenia: Travels and Studies\" (1901) is a text regularly referenced but less often fully examined and interrogated. This lecture will discuss the processes behind the production of Lynch’s book and the events\, ideas\, themes and tropes that informed his vision of ‘Armenia’\, with particular emphasis on photographs and image-making practice. Often the images found in travelogues are considered organic\, neutral pieces of reality\, yet a close examination of their construction and deployment can help us to understand the role they play in the creation of a particular image of a place. An understanding of the manner in which the lens presents human geography\, natural landscape and the built environment not only allows us to comprehend a writer’s standpoint\, but in Lynch’s case it also acts as an enlightening guide as we consider wider practices of ‘dreaming’ the nation in the Near East.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | Lens vs Algorithm: Optical Imaging in the Age of Computers
DESCRIPTION:Optical elements may be thought of as effecting a linear transformation of the optical field. Given access to the field\, those same transformations\, and many more\, may be performed with a computer and so hardware may be replaced with software. I will mainly discuss the application of this idea in optical coherence tomography (OCT) where we have replaced complicated hardware with physics-based algorithms to produce a high-resolution 3-d imaging system with infinite depth of field in a compact form factor. I will give examples of the method in use in biological systems and results from a recent clinical trial in breast cancer. \n\nBio: Prof Carney holds a BS in Engineering Physics from UIUC (1994)\, and a PhD in Physics from the University of Rochester (1999).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Macroeconomics
DESCRIPTION:We develop a dynamic equilibrium model of complex asset markets with endogenous entry and exit in which the investment technology of investors with more expertise is subject to less asset-specific risk. The joint equilibrium distribution of financial expertise and wealth then determines this asset market’s risk bearing capacity. Higher expert demand lowers equilibrium required returns\, reducing overall participation. In a dynamic industry equilibrium\, investor participation in more complex asset markets with more asset-specific risk is lower\, despite higher market-level Sharpe ratios\, as long as asset complexity and expertise are complements. We analyze how asset complexity affects the stationary wealth distribution of complex asset investors. Because of selection\, increased complexity reduces expertise heterogeneity and wealth concentration\, even though the wealth distribution for more expert investors has fatter tails.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Moving from Career Success to Retirement Success
DESCRIPTION:For those anticipating retirement in the next 24 months\, this six-session group on preparing for a satisfying retirement will combine exploration of relevant topics with creative expression and supportive discussion. The focus of this group will be on the transition of retirement and the challenges that come with it -- from questions like \"How will I define myself?\" to “How will I establish priorities and spend my time?”\n\nThe series will help you plan for the non-financial aspects of retirement\, such as redefining who you are\, revisiting what is most important to you\, exploring new interests and opportunities\, and maintaining social connections. You will also learn about what researchers find makes for a fulfilling retirement.\n \nThis series has the capacity for 14 participants\, and is open to all U-M staff\, faculty and students\, as well as the general public.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Algebraic Geometry
DESCRIPTION:There are not many known examples of compact irreducible hyperkahler manifolds. Two series of examples appear in dimension 2n\, for every n>1\, and are related to the Hilbert scheme of points on a K3 or an abelian surface\; and in dimension 6 and 10 there is one extra\, or exceptional\, deformation class\, each of which was found by O'Grady. While considerable work has been devoted to studying hyperkahler manifolds belonging to the first two deformation classes\, not much is known for the exceptional deformation classes. In this talk I will present joint work with Giovanni Mongardi and Antonio Rapagnetta\, regarding the geometry of O'Grady's six dimensional example. By realizing these examples as \"quotients\" of another hyperkahler manifold by a birational involution\, we are able to compute the Hodge numbers and\, in work in progress\, also study properties of their moduli spaces/deformation class.\n Speaker(s): Giulia Sacca (Stony Brook University)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Analysis/Probability
DESCRIPTION:The problem  of uniform tessellation of the unit sphere  (or its subsets) by hyperplanes\, or equivalently\, almost isometric embeddings of subsets of the sphere into the Hamming cube\, has been raised in the work of Plan and Vershynin. It asks for the smallest number of hyperplanes\, such that the induced Hamming distance (i.e. the proportion of hyperplanes that separate the two given points) uniformly approximates the geodesic distance. The setup of this question naturally relates it to the so-called  one-bit compressed sensing.  In the joint work with Michael Lacey we adopt two new points of view on this problem. First\, we look at it through the prism of empirical processes and find that the bounds may be controlled in terms of the supremum of the \"hemisphere process\" (rather than the more standard Gaussian width).\nIn particular\, we establish one-bit analogs of classical results (e.g.\, the Johnson--Lindenstrauss lemma)\, which may be roughly summarized as: theoretically\, one-bit sensing is just as good as the standard compressed sensing. Furthermore\, we observe that the question of uniform tessellation may be rephrased as a problem about geometric discrepancy\, thus introducing tools and ideas from  this field. This allows us to show that\, in the asymptotic case\, ``jittered sampling\" performs better than a random choice of hyperplanes. Speaker(s): Dmitriy Bilyk (University of Minnesota)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Science Café: Has Particle Physics Fizzled?
DESCRIPTION:In 2012\, physicists at large particle accelerators such as the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) found evidence of the Higgs boson\, long predicted by the Standard Model in physics. Hooray!  But since then\, they have yet to find evidence of other so-called supersymmetrical particles\, which theorists predict because they would help to explain dark matter and the \"unnatural\" mass of the Higgs particle.  The lack of new particles is puzzling. If supersymmetry is out\, what then? If we discover no new particles beyond the Higgs boson with our huge accelerators\, is that a discovery in itself?  Join us as we discuss this possibility\, which some popular articles have dubbed a \"nightmare scenario.\" Speakers include Dante Amidei\, U-M Professor of Physics\, and Aaron Pierce\, U-M Professor of Physics and Director of the Michigan Center for Theoretical Physics.\n\nScience Cafés provide an opportunity for audiences to discuss current science topics with experts in an informal setting. Hors d’oeuvres at 5:30 p.m.\;program 6:00-7:30 p.m.  \n\nSeating is limited - come early.  All Science Cafés take place at Conor O’Neill’s Traditional Irish Pub\, 318 South Main Street\, Ann Arbor.
