SUMMARY:Exhibition:ARCHIGRAM EXHIBITION OPENING
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition on View January 14 - February 19\nThis exhibition opening reception begins after Dennis Crompton's lecture in STAMPS Auditorium in the Walgreen Drama Center.\nThis exhibition celebrates the imagination and ingenuity of Archigram\, the British architects whose dynamic and provocative vision of future life brought the pop spirit to the architecture avant garde in 1960s Britain.\nVibrant\, playful\, optimistic\, and iconoclastic\, the visionary architectural projects presented by Archigram in exhibitions\, collages\, drawings and film\, played an important role in 1960s pop culture and have an enduring influence on architecture today. Archigram was founded in London in 1961 around a nucleus of young architects: Warren Chalk\, Peter Cook\, Dennis Crompton\, David Greene\, Ron Herron and Michael Webb. Inspired by pop culture\, advances in technology and the belief that architects had a responsibility to develop new ways of responding to social change\, the group rebelled against the conservative architectural establishment by launching a magazine – entitled Archigram – to express its ideas. \nOrganized by Dennis Crompton for Archigram. Supported by the Johe Fund. \nJoin us also for an opening lecture delivered by Dennis Crompton\, January 13 at 6:00pm in the Walgreen Drama Center's STAMPS Auditorium\, followed by an opening reception for the exhibition at the Liberty Research Annex.

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: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:Class / Instruction:Human Language II
DESCRIPTION:Having defined language and examined development in Human Language I\, we continue with McWhorter's lectures and explore how contact between human cultures influences languages. We see how language can start over--as Pidgins and Creoles. We reexamine English\, both its history and the variety known as Black English. We conclude by appraising the death of specific languages\, artificial languages. The course ends with a finale - McWhorter's Master Class. Each session will consist of two half hour lectures\, with discussion following each lecture. Arthur Brakel\, a linguist\, will moderate the sessions. This class for adults over 50 meets Wednesdays through March 29th.

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:HET Brown Bag Seminar | A Small Weak Scale from a Small Cosmological Constant
DESCRIPTION:I will present a framework in which Weinberg's anthropic explanation of the cosmological constant problem also solves the hierarchy problem. The weak scale is selected by chiral dynamics that controls the stabilization of an extra dimension. When the Higgs vacuum expectation value is close to a fermion mass scale\, the radius of an extra dimension becomes large\, and develops an enhanced number of vacua available to scan the cosmological constant down to its observed value. At low energies\, the radion necessarily appears as an unnaturally light scalar\, in a range of masses and couplings accessible to fifth-force searches as well as scalar dark matter searches with atomic clocks and gravitational-wave detectors. The fermion sector that controls the size of the extra dimension consists of a pair of electroweak doublets and several singlets. These leptons satisfy approximate mass relations related to the weak scale and can be produced at the LHC and future colliders. If time permits\, I will also present purely four-dimensional realizations of the framework.\n\nBased on arXiv:1609.06320 in collaboration with Asimina Arvanitaki\, Savas Dimopoulos\, Victor Gorbenko\, and Junwu Huang

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RTG Seminar on Geometry\, Dynamics and Topology
DESCRIPTION:Last week we studied Auslander's 'conjecture' that the fundamental group of a complete closed affine manifold is virtually solvable\, and the related question by Milnor\, whether this remains true without requiring the manifold to be closed. This week I will explain Margulis' construction of (noncompact) examples in dimension 3 with free fundamental group\, answering Milnor's question in the negative. We will also see how Goldman-Margulis combined the key new tool for this construction\, the Margulis invariant\, with Teichmueller theory to give a new proof of a theorem of Mess: Any counterexample to Milnor's question has to have free fundamental group.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:ASP Lecture | Immigrants into ‘Ethnic’— Americans: Negotiating Race\, Language\, Religion and Belongings
DESCRIPTION:Problematizing the linear approach to immigrant integration and assimilation\, this lecture will explore the dynamic processes of identity negotiations among immigrants and their descendants during the period between the 1890s and 1930s. In a time of intensifying fears around newcomers and their negative impact on American identity and culture\, immigrants endured prejudice and discrimination\, voluntarily and involuntarily engaging in the Americanization process. Through a comparative perspective\, this lecture will focus on Armenian immigrants and the institutions they founded in America to demonstrate how in the processes of negotiating race\, language\, religion and belongings\, they produced distinct forms of Americanness and Armenianness. Complicating the concepts of ethnicity and nation\, this lecture will bring to bear the lived collective experiences and voices of immigrants to highlight alternative spaces of belonging that move beyond idealized identities.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | The Trump Administration Takes Office with a Downsized Cold War Nuclear Doomsday Machine Still on Hair Trigger
DESCRIPTION:President-elect Trump has indicated that he does not necessarily think that nuclear arms races and nuclear proliferation are bad. This is likely to ignite a national policy debate. Physicists have played a major role in past U.S. national debates on nuclear-weapons policy. The purpose of this talk is to help provide some basic background to the new generation of physicists who have grown up during the past 25 years assuming that the Cold War Doomsday Machine was dismantled. It wasn’t. Indeed\, it is still on hair trigger in a launch-on-warning posture. Furthermore\, in order to get the New START Treaty ratified by the Senate\, the Obama Administration committed to modernize all U.S. nuclear “delivery vehicles” and their warheads. And\, despite the fact that the U.S. military budget is twice that of China\, Russia and Iran combined\, President Obama was unable to change U.S. nuclear policy to no first use. Finally\, he approved a massive buildup in U.S. ballistic missile defenses that resulted in Russia losing interest in further cuts and China losing interest in capping its slow nuclear buildup. Sad!

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Financial/Actuarial Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:Contract theory is an economic topic\, that has been recently highlighted by the Economics Nobel Prize received by Bengt Holmstrom in 2016. This field is concerned with the design of optimal incentives between agents during a contracting process\, and is often represented by a simplifying Principal-Agent model. In the last decade\, the dynamic extension of such approach via continuous time models has emerged\, in particular due to the impulsion of Y. Sannikov. We will see how the tools from Backward Stochastic Differential Equations and stochastic control allow to revisit such literature\, in a clear mathematical way. In particular\, we will discuss the case where a principal wishes to sign contracts with several agents in interaction. \n  Speaker(s): Romuald Elie (Universite Paris-Est and UM (Sabbatical))

DESCRIPTION:Water is an essential ingredient of life\, and is necessary for a future human station or colony on the moon.  In addition\, knowing H2O concentration in a planetary body offers clues for its origin and evolution.  This inaugural lecture will focus on our recent work of the H2O content on the surface and in the interior of the moon.  Even though there is no liquid water on the moon\, water ice has been found in permanently shadowed impact craters in the lunar polar region.  Our studies show that both lunar surface soil and lunar interior likely contain about 100 ppm of H2O.  Lunar soil water is inferred to be mostly from solar wind implantation\, and interior water is largely primordial.  These results point out ways for in situ extraction of water on the moon and other airless planetary bodies\, and provide constraints on the Giant Impact Hypothesis for the origin of the moon\, as well as its evolution.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Toward an Intellectual History of Black Women
DESCRIPTION:Discussants : \nMartha S. Jones (History\, Afroamerican and African Studies\, and Law)\;\nMegan Sweeney (English\, Afroamerican and African Studies\, and Women's Studies)\; \nTiya Miles (Afroamerican and African Studies\, American Culture\, History\, and Women's Studies)\n\nThis panel of U-M faculty members will discuss the recent book\, Toward an Intellectual History of Black Women (University of North Carolina Press\, 2015) edited by Mia E. Bay\, Farah J. Griffin\, Martha S. Jones\, and Barbara D. Savage.\n\nDespite recent advances in the study of black thought\, black women intellectuals remain often neglected. This collection of essays by fifteen scholars of history and literature establishes black women's places in intellectual history by engaging the work of writers\, educators\, activists\, religious leaders\, and social reformers in the United States\, Africa\, and the Caribbean. Dedicated to recovering the contributions of thinkers marginalized by both their race and their gender\, these essays uncover the work of unconventional intellectuals\, both formally educated and self-taught\, and explore the broad community of ideas in which their work participated. The end result is a field-defining and innovative volume that addresses topics ranging from religion and slavery to the politicized and gendered reappraisal of the black female body in contemporary culture.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Copy: A Lecture by Joan Linder and Paul Vanouse
DESCRIPTION:For over a decade Paul Vanouse and Joan Linder have used copying respectively in their work. Vinouse uses reverse engineering of the the DNA fingerprinting process to create unexpected images in his cutting edge BioArt practice. Linder has been working on Toxic Archives\, an ongoing series where she creates a hand-drawn archive of copied pages from public archives documenting America’s toxic landscapes. \n\nThe copy\, an act of both reverence and irreverence\, used to unpack\, point fingers and make discoveries ultimately connects these two artists\, colleagues and life partners.\n\n There will be an opening reception for Linder’s exhibition “Atomic Highways and Byways”  immediately following the lecture.
