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: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:Lecture / Discussion:Technology Adoption in the Community
DESCRIPTION:Joyojeet Pal\, U-M School of Information\, discusses the challenges that touchsreens present to users with visual impairments in India. He describes interface management issues for smartphones and situates them within the socio-cultural issues around disability and accessibility in contemporary urban India.\n\nSwitching from keypad-based phones that offer tactile feedback\, to gesture-based smartphones that individuals interface with through touchscreens present a significant learning curve as well as a number of continuing challenges for people with visual impairments. As keypad-based phones are slowly phased out of production\, smartphone adoption is no longer a choice -- it is enforced by markets. New users rely on a range of institutional and community resources to adopt these technologies and deal with ongoing troubleshooting. Yet these resources may not always be easily available in various parts of the world where smartphones are still expensive for the average citizen.\n\nEmergent Research events are aimed at better understanding the various types of research undertaken across campus\, particularly as they relate to library services and support\, opportunities for collaboration\, data management and preservation\, and beyond.

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: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.

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: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:Topology
DESCRIPTION:Given a group G\, and a manifold M\, can one describe all the ways that G acts on M?  This is a remarkably rich question even in the case where M is the line or the circle\, and is connected to problems in dynamics\, topology\, and foliation theory.   \nThis talk will describe one very useful way to capture such an action\, namely\, through the algebraic data of a left-invariant linear or circular order on a group.   I'll explain new work\, joint with C. Rivas\, that relates the topology of the space of orders on a group G to the moduli space of actions of G on the line or circle.  As an application we'll see new rigidity phenomena for actions\, and the answers to some older questions about orderings. Speaker(s): Kathryn Mann (UC Berkeley)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral & Experimental Economics (SBEE)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nDifferences in individuals' social identity have recently been shown to explain differences in behavior. But where do differences in social identity come from? Theory claims that identification allows people to affect their social identity by choosing who they are. Accordingly\, this paper treats social identity as a choice and analyzes its behavioral effects. We find identification to be systematically related to behavioral heterogeneity in group-specific social preferences. In a first step\, we measure identification preferences using a revealed preference approach in a laboratory experiment. Confirming social identity theory\, participants reveal a stronger identification preference for groups that have a higher social status and to which they have a smaller social distance. In a second step\, we analyze how identification affects subsequent behavior. Between- as well as within-subject heterogeneity in identification preferences explains corresponding heterogeneity in group-specific dictator games. Overall\, our paper documents the importance of identification as a choice and its relevance for explaining the frequently observed heterogeneity in identity-related behavior.

SUMMARY:Other:Biochemical and Biophysical Mechanisms of Telomerase Recruitment to Telomeres 
DESCRIPTION:Human chromosomes end in telomeres\, repetitive DNA sequences that serve as a buffer to protect the coding material of the genome. During DNA replication telomeres shrink due to the end replication problem\, leading to cell-cycle arrest when telomeres reach a critical length. This arrest provides an important barrier against cancer formation by limiting the number of division human cells can undergo. In stem cells and 90% of cancer cells the ribonucleoprotein (RNP) telomerase counteracts telomere shrinkage\, allowing these cell types to divide indefinitely. Telomerase is a reverse transcriptase that adds telomeric repeats to the chromosome end by copying them from a template contained in its RNA subunit. Recruitment of telomerase to telomeres occurs in S-phase of the cell cycle but the molecular mechanism of the process is only partially understood. Using biochemical\, biophysical\, and cell biological approaches in combination with genome editing I have defined the protein-protein interface required for telomerase recruitment to telomeres. Furthermore\, live cell single-molecule imaging of telomerase revealed that telomerase monitors telomeres by forming frequent\, short protein-protein interactions with telomeres. Only rarely are these brief interactions converted into stable\, long lasting interactions consistent with telomere elongation. These observations explain how a small pool of telomerase RNPs can maintain all telomeres. Finally\, using zero mode waveguides\, I have developed a single molecule assay to study the telomerase catalytic cycle. Together\, these approaches will allow me to provide a comprehensive picture of telomerase mediated telomere maintenance\, hopefully leading to new strategies to prevent telomerase action in cancer cells.\n\nJens Schmidt (University of Colorado Boulder)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Complex Analysis\, Dynamics and Geometry
DESCRIPTION:Strictly convex Hilbert geometries naturally generalize constant negatively curved Riemannian geometries\, and the geodesic flow on quotient manifolds has been well-studied by Benoist\, Crampon\, Marquis\, and others. In contrast\, nonstrictly convex Hilbert geometries in three dimensions have the feel of nonpositive curvature\, but also have a fascinating geometric irregularity which forces the geodesic flow to avoid direct application of existing nonuniformly hyperbolic theory. In this talk\, we present our approach to studying the geodesic flow in this setting\, culminating in a measure of maximal entropy which is ergodic for the geodesic flow. Speaker(s): Sarah Bray (UM)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Special Seminar: Causes and consequences of long-distance movement
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nMovement is a fundamental characteristic of organisms: individuals move to locate resources and to avoid unfavorable conditions. The resulting patterns can span a range of spatial and temporal scales\, and have consequences not only for the spatial distribution of a population but also for its demographic\, social and genetic structure. In this talk\, I will present my research on two of the longer forms of organismal movement: round-trip migration and one-way dispersal. In particular I consider what ultimate factors drive long-distance movement\, and what consequences movement has for both individuals and populations. In my work I use primarily theoretical approaches (a combination of analytic models\, and numerical and individual-based simulations)\, although always driven by the goal of gaining a deeper insight into the underlying biology.\n\nLight refreshments will be served at 4 p.m.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Combinatorics Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Payne and Thullier independently have defined a canonical compactification of rational polyhedral cones\, called extended rational polyhedral cones. We use \"pointed\" monoids\, monoids with an absorbing element\, to study extended rational polyhedral cones. The equivalence of toric monoids and rational polyhedral cones from previous results in toric geometry allow us to extend the equivalence to these more recently defined objects. This also allows us to explore affine toric varieties with new morphisms and constructions built from these extended cones and pointed monoids rather than their non-compact and unpointed analogs.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Group\, Lie and Number Theory
DESCRIPTION:We show that de Rham cohomology sheaves of a smooth non-Archimedean space have a functorial decomposition through local weights. In particular\, this answers a question raised by Berkovich for 1-forms. We also reveal a connection between de Rham cohomology sheaves and the (bi)complex of sheaves of real forms defined by Chambert-Loir and Ducros via tropical charts. As an application\, we show that integrations of closed real forms on an algebraic cycle vanish if the cycle is cohomologically trivial (in algebraic de Rham cohomology).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM - AMO Graduate Student Seminar | A Quick Review of Field Theory in Fermionic Systems and the Rise of Non-Linear Sigma Model
DESCRIPTION:I will first review what are metals and insulators for free fermion systems. By applying the linear response theory to both systems we can calculate experimentally measurable quantities\, among which are d.c. conductivity for metals and quantized Hall conductivity for insulators. Then starting with Anderson orthogonality catastrophe (AOC)\, I will talk about the differences and relations between free and interacting Fermionic systems. At last\, I will apply mean field theory to Landau Fermi-liquid theory with perfect nesting and show that spin density wave (SDW) state arises. The fluctuation of such a state could be described by non-linear sigma model.

DESCRIPTION:This series of two workshops is designed to enhance your self-awareness and the stories you tell about who you are\, where you’re going\, and the impact you will have in the world. The sessions are filled with powerful stories\, energizing activities\, and meaningful engagement with peers that will enable you to surface valuable self insights to fuel your career decisions and personal vision. You’ll also complete a personal statement as an aid for the most difficult challenges and choices in your future. The statement will articulate your purpose\, core values\, leadership philosophy\, and learning agenda.\n\nLegacy Lab is a program offered by the Sanger Leadership Center at Michigan Ross. This workshop is the first in a two-part series\, offered on November 21 and November 28. You must attend both sessions to complete the Legacy Lab experience.\n\nOpen to any University of Michigan student\, free of cost. We ask that you register in advance on our website (link below).\n\nQuestions? Contact us at rossleaders@umich.edu.
