SUMMARY:Auditions:Auditions for \"The Pirates of Penzance!\"
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan Gilbert & Sullivan Society (UMGASS) is holding auditions for The Pirates of Penzance\; or\, the Slave of Duty\, music by A.S. Sullivan\, book and lyrics by W.S.

Frederic\, who values the concept of 'duty' above all else\, has vowed\, upon his emancipation\, to vanquish his former comrades. Soon the Pirates find themselves preparing for battle with Major-General Stanley\, who escaped from their clutches by prevarication\, even as Frederic finds himself falling in love with Mabel\, the Major-General's daughter. Then suddenly\, new alliances are turned topsy-turvy when Frederic discovers he might not have completely fulifilled the terms of his indentures\, and his duty may once again place him on the side of piracy\, and against both his future father-in-law\, and his chosen bride!\"\n\nAll principal and ensemble roles are available for SATB\, including Frederic (Tenor)\, Mabel (Soprano)\, Major-General Stanley (Comic Baritone)\, Ruth (Alto)\, The Pirate King (Baritone)\, the Sergeant of Police (Bass Baritone)\, and others.\n\nAuditioners are encouraged to attend the UMGASS Mass Meeting on Sunday\, January 8\, 2017 at 7:00 pm in the Kalamazoo Room at the Michigan League\, 911 N.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Ann Arbor Street Paintings: Oil on Panel
DESCRIPTION:Carlye Crisler\, a well known Ann Arbor artist of en plein air (outdoor) painting\, is originally from the Bucktown district of Chicago. Her goal is to paint an environment or neighborhood by showing activities\, people and lighting at a particular time of day\, capturing an extended sense of place. In this collection of en plein air oil paintings\, Crisler has taken on complicated places with many textures and divisions of space. She embraces ambiguity with shapes of buildings broken by shadow and parts of them hidden by other things barely determined. In addition to a painter of urban landscapes\, Crisler also is a costumer\, figurative portrait painter and metal sculptor.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Art & Healing: American Indian Textiles & Beads
DESCRIPTION:Suzanne L. Cross\, Ph.D.\, Associate Professor Emeritus\, Michigan State University and member of the Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe\, is a shawl maker and beadwork artist. She created this body of work to increase awareness and emphasize cardiac health for American Indian women by informing\, supporting\, and encouraging self-care and the value of changing life ways. Shawls are symbols of womanhood and are of significance to many American Indian tribal cultures. Now-a-day traditional female dancers complete their regalia by carrying the shawl over their left arm which is closest to the heart\, and the fringe sways to the heartbeat rhythm of the drum.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Leaders and the Rest: Boundaries and Belonging at the University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Who belongs at the University of Michigan? Who gets to draw its boundaries? Michigan students have asked and answered these questions for nearly two hundred years. Against a backdrop of local\, national\, and global change\, they have negotiated their place and redefined their responsibilities. At times\, students have debated among each other\, sparred with faculty and administrators\, negotiated with community members\, and contended with politicians. In so doing\, they have shaped the physical campus\, the student body\, the meaning of community\, and the university’s mission as a public institution.\n\nThis exhibit showcases key moments of student expression\, politics\, and culture from the first decades of the university’s existence in Ann Arbor\, through the upheavals of world wars\, and to the social and cultural turmoil of the late-twentieth century.\n\nOn display January 4-February 25\, 2017\, Hatcher Library Gallery (Room 100).\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester initiative is presented with support from the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office. Additional support provided by the Department of History and the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

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:THE NEW WORLD OF TRANSPORTATION:  CONNECTED\, MULTI-MODAL\, AND INFORMATION-TECHNOLOGY-ENABLED
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Susan Zielinski is Managing Director of SMART (Sustainable Mobility & 
Accessibility Research & Transformation)\, a division of U-M’s Transportation Research Institute. SMART’s mission is to advance sustainable transportation systems in an 
urbanizing world and the industry and enterprise that will supply them. SMART is 
involved in projects around the world. Dr. Zielinski previously spent fifteen years as a transportation planner for the City of Toronto.\n\nTransportation is now transforming towards connected\, multi-modal\, IT-enabled “mobility-as-a-service\,” providing people with a wider and more sustainable range of options on demand. Multi-modal systems integrate different modes of transportation\, i.e. combinations of cars and trucks (including autonomous and \nconnected vehicles)\, bus\, rail\, and air transport. Individuals and goods travel via several of these components in route to their destinations.    \n\nThis is the second of a six-lecture series. The subject is The Future of Transportation: Don’t Turn in Your Car Keys Yet!

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:Moving Image: Landscape
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Landscape explores traditional notions of landscape through four very different time-based works by artists Jim Campbell\, Antti Laitinen\, Joanie Lemercier\, and Rick Silva.\n\nCampbell’s recent body of work\, including Seal Rock\, presents pixilated images of landscapes created with grids of LEDs. The low-resolution LEDs create a tension between representation and abstraction\, provoking viewers to interpret visual information on their own. In the three-channel video It’s My Island Laitinen builds his own island in the Baltic Sea by dragging two hundred sand bags into the water over a period of three months. The work explores ideas of nationality\, citizenship\, and identity as the artist creates his own single-citizen micro-nation. Lemercier’s computer-generated print Landforms uses patterns of black dots and projected light to create the illusion of three-dimensionality and movement when seen from a distance. The effects are more realistic than a still image\, but still unsettlingly artificial. Silva’s Render Garden explores the digitized landscape\, including remix and glitch aesthetics\, through software that endlessly generates new plant combinations.\n\nThroughout the next year UMMA will present a series of exhibitions drawn from the Borusan Contemporary Art Collection in Istanbul. The Borusan’s thirty-year-old collection includes significant works across a variety of genres\, and since 2011 it has focused on media arts. The works exhibited here address formal concerns such as abstraction and color\, and conceptual topics such as identity or ecological issues\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\,\nthe Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

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:Workshop / Seminar:Commutative Algebra
DESCRIPTION:Given a radical ideal I in a regular ring R\, the containment problem of symbolic and ordinary powers of I consists of determining which symbolic powers of I are contained in each power of I. By work of Ein-Lazersfeld-Smith and Hochster-Huneke\, there is a uniform answer to  this question\, but the containments it provides are not necessarily  best possible.\n\nIn this talk\, we will discuss the containment problem and present new results for the case when R/I is F-pure or when R/I is strongly F-regular\; in particular\, that a conjecture of Harbourne holds in the F-pure case. This is joint work with Craig Huneke. Speaker(s): Eloisa Grifo (University of Virginia)

DESCRIPTION:We are going to discuss Ramon van Handel's new tutorial on Structured Random Matrices.\nIt reviews a number of recent results and methods related to the study of non i.i.d. random matrices\, when the goal is to understand how the given structure of the matrix (like sparsity\, dependent entries etc) is reflected in its spectral properties. This week we will talk about non commutative Khinchine inequality\, that bounds the moments of a random matrix (which immediately results in a bound of its spectral norm). Often this bound is only log-optimal\, but it has a power of being remarkably general: it does not even require independence of the matrix entries.  Speaker(s): Liza Rebrova (UM)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Thursday Seminar: Social interactions in primate genomics\, life history\, and evolution
DESCRIPTION:In social species\, including our own\, interactions with other members of the same species powerfully shape the environment that animals face each day. These interactions mediate the evolutionary costs and benefits of group living. Here\, I will present our recent research on the impact of social interactions at the molecular and organismal levels. Using a 45-year data set from wild baboons in Kenya\, we demonstrate that social adversity in early life combines with ecological pressures to profoundly shape individual survival and lifetime reproductive success. Meanwhile\, in captive rhesus macaques\, we show that social status causally alters immune function\, including the response to infection. Together\, these results demonstrate that close ties between social adversity and survival have a long evolutionary history in the primate lineage\, and that changes at the level of gene regulation contribute to this relationship.\n\nLight refreshments served at 4 p.m.\n\nWatch YouTube video: https://youtu.be/xVO03U7M0pY

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Topology
DESCRIPTION:We say that an embedding $\Gamma$ of a graph $\gamma$ in a 3-manifold M is achiral if there is an orientation reversing homeomorphism of $(M\,\Gamma)$. If a graph $\gamma$ has no such embedding in M we say $\gamma$ is intrinsically chiral in M.\n\nWe prove that for any closed\, connected\, orientable\, irreducible 3-manifold M\, there is an integer $n_M$ such that every 3-connected graph $\gamma$ with $genus(\gamma) > n_M$ and no involution is intrinsically chiral in M. On the other hand\, we prove that every graph has achiral embeddings in infinitely many closed\, connected\, orientable\, irreducible 3-manifolds. Speaker(s): Erica Flapan (Pomona College)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Law & Economics: The Concept of Legal Uncertainty
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThere is a great deal of theoretical literature on the causes and consequences of legal uncertainty. However\, there has been virtually no empirical analysis of these issues\, perhaps on account of the absence of rigorously defined yet practical measures of legal uncertainty. This article defines several different kinds of legal uncertainty in ways that correspond to well-recognized concepts such as risk and ambiguity and shows how survey data can be used to construct measures of those forms of legal uncertainty.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Robert Platt: Prosfuge
DESCRIPTION:International artist Robert Platt’s creative work encompasses painting\, architectural installation\, and moving image. Drawing on research in a range of disciplines\, including landscape theory\, optics\, speleology\, and Japanese studies\, his work investigates what the role of environment\, human perception\, surface\, and materiality articulates in the age of increasing virtuality. In his diverse approach to artmaking\, Platt creates composite and divergent experiences that allow the viewer multiple understandings of our interface with the spaces we inhabit. Platt graduated from The Royal College of Art (UK) with an MA in painting in 2001 and completed a practice-led PhD at The Kyoto City University of Arts in 2010.

You can find the application on our Maizepages website at https://maizepages.umich.edu/organization/MEMC\, and an attachment will also be sent out with this email. Either fill the application out on Maizepages\, or feel free to email me directly with the attached file. Becoming an Exec provides an excellent opportunity to develop leadership and management skills\, not to mention a fantastic resume boost.   Our club is meant to educate interested students on the wonders and opportunities that fall within pre-hospital emergency health care\, as well as mentor young pre-medical\, pre-dental\, pre-PA\, pre-PT\, and nursing students. We have upperclassmen in every subsection of the medical field\, and connections to companies and sponsors that would love to help further build your resume\, as well as allow you to explore previously unknown interests. This mass meeting will be an opportunity for you to come meet the current executive board\, as well as hear about the future events and opportunities that MEMC would love to offer you. In previous years we have toured the survival flight department\, which included the inspection of a multi-million dollar emergency helicopter\, and have also been given demonstrations of how to suture as well as provide basic CPR. If any of this interests you\, then please stop by at our mass meeting and meet some more people that share your enthusiasm and passion for emergency medicine and the healthcare field. If you have any questions\, please feel free to email me at asbrandt@umich.edu\, thank you and I hope to see you all soon!!  Best\, Austin BrandtPresident\, MEMC Daniel BorsukVP\, MEMC
