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:Presentation:Defective\, Deficient\, Burdensome:  Thinking About Bad Bodies
DESCRIPTION:Join Eli Clare as he uses history\, storytelling\, and poetry to examine the ways in which some bodies and communities are named as bad and disposable. Ranging widely from police brutality to disability-based bullying\, he reveals the deep damage done by the notion of defectiveness.  Weaving hope\, critical analysis and compassionate storytelling together in his work on disability and queerness\, he insists on the twine of race\, class\, gender\, sexuality and disability.

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:Workshop / Seminar:EIHS Symposium: From Archives to Nail Guns: Practical Applications of Graduate History Training
DESCRIPTION:Learn how a team of graduate students from diverse fields and chronological specializations collaborated to produce the exhibit “The Leaders and the Rest: Boundaries and Belonging at the University of Michigan” (on display at the Hatcher Graduate Library Gallery\, Room 100\, until February 25). Turned loose in the archive to find compelling stories\, they identified four episodes in U-M history around which to organize the exhibit. The challenge then became interpreting those stories for a visual medium\, linking them thematically\, and constructing a physical exhibit that conveyed those connections. Members of the student team will talk about the challenges and rewards of this project\, how it intersected with their graduate training\, and what they learned by having to take into account a variety of stakeholders as they developed historical interpretations.\n\nFeaturing:\nMichelle McClellan (Assistant Professor\, History\, Residential College)\nJonathan Farr (Lecturer\, History)\nNora Krinitsky (Doctoral Candidate\, History)\nEmily Price (Doctoral Candidate\, History)\nKate Silbert (Doctoral Candidate\, History and Women's Studies)\n\nFree and open to the public. Lunch provided. \n\nThis event is part of the Friday Series of the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:PhonDi Discussion Group
DESCRIPTION:The discussion on stress in Arabic in the literature has primarily focused on the phonological constraints/rules behind the grammar of stress in Arabic. A rather limited number of studies delve into the topic of stress acquisition. The objective of this study is to investigate into the acquisition of stress and how it is biased by frequency. Following the usage-based approach to language acquisition\, it is predicted that the more frequent a stress pattern is\, the better the performance of the learners.\n\nTo examine this prediction\, I conducted an experiment consisting of three tasks: stress identification\, lexical decision\, and stress production. The stimuli implemented in the experiment are real and nonsense words that have contrastive frequency of stress pattern. By exposing these stimuli to the learners of Arabic in the experiment\, a biased performance preferring frequent stress pattern is predicted.\n\nThe results confirm this prediction\, as the participants react to words with frequent pattern with significantly faster reaction time and accuracy in the production task. Additionally\, it is found that the frequency of the stress pattern seems to interfere with word recognition as nonsense words with frequent stress pattern tend to be perceived as real words by the participants. These findings strongly support the role of frequency in language learning and processing.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Applied Interdisciplinary Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:A substantial body of terramechanics research has been performed at the U.S. Army Tank Automotive Research\, Development\, and Engineering Center (TARDEC) and the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) that led to the development of various mobility prediction methodologies including the NATO Reference Mobility Model (NRMM). These methodologies are numerical algorithms for predicting cross-country vehicle movement at length scales of several meters to several kilometers. They are based on empirical results drawn from years of resource-intensive experimental testing and have been used widely by the military community. As a consequence of their empirical nature\, while the methods have been useful for prediction of large\, heavy vehicle mobility\, they can neither be extrapolated to today's vehicle designs containing advanced technologies nor are applicable to lightweight robotic vehicles. Hence is the need for a physics-based approach that would enable a high fidelity mobility prediction.  \n\nThis research is aimed at augmenting the role that computational multibody dynamics (MBD) plays in characterizing the dynamics of discrete media in terramechanics applications. The discrete element method (DEM) is a powerful\, emerging tool for analyzing these phenomena. The use of novel frictional-contact modeling techniques\, such as the differential variational inequality (DVI) approach\, which complement existing penalty/regularization approaches\, in combination with a mapping of the solution algorithms onto commodity massively parallel hardware is envisioned to lead to a major breakthrough in our ability to simulate the dynamics of tracked and wheeled vehicles operating on deformable terrain. \n\nThe challenge\, however\, is the computational performance of such approaches in terms of efficiency and robustness which are addressed in this research. The research focuses on the use of second order optimization methods to improve the robustness of the DVI method for large multiscale MBD problems. This research thrust is predicated on the assertion that bringing higher order information into the numerical solution will improve its rate of convergence.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Financial/Actuarial Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:The theory of mean field type control aims at describing the behaviour of a large number of interacting agents using a common feedback. A phenomenon that have raised a lot of interest recently is called congestion: the agents try move while avoiding crowded regions. We will present a system of partial differential equations (PDE) arising in this setting: a forward Fokker-Planck equation and a backward Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation describe respectively the evolution of the density of agents and of the value function. We are able to prove the existence and uniqueness of suitably defined weak solutions\, which are characterized as the optima of two optimal control problems in duality. Based on this optimal control viewpoint\, we develop an augmented Lagrangian algorithm solving numerically this mean field type control problem. This is joint work with Yves Achdou.

DESCRIPTION:A growing body of recent literature investigates quasiconformal mappings in the setting of equiregular sub-Riemannian manifolds. In this talk we consider quasiconformal mappings on the Grushin plane\, a basic example of a non-equiregular sub-Riemannian manifold. We will prove an equivalence of definitions of quasiconformality for such mappings and discuss limitations of this equivalence. This is joint work with C. Gartland and D. Jung.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Seminars | Naturalness in the Dark
DESCRIPTION:The search for physics beyond the Standard Model at the LHC is largely oriented towards new particles associated with solutions to the electroweak hierarchy problem. While the precise character of these partner states may vary from model to model\, they typically possess large QCD production rates favorable for detection at hadron colliders. Null results in searches for partner particles during Run 1 of the LHC have placed the idea of electroweak naturalness under increasing strain. In this talk I'll discuss a broad class of natural theories where the new degrees of freedom relevant for naturalness lie in hidden sectors and are largely unconstrained by LHC data. Rather than rendering electroweak naturalness untestable\, they give rise to entirely new signs of naturalness at the LHC\, including displaced decays and other exotic signatures. They also furnish a variety of viable dark matter candidates testable at current and future experiments.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:SynSem Discussion Group
DESCRIPTION:We are reading a paper by Beltrama on Intensification\, gradability and social perception: the case of totally.\n\nAbstract\nThe notion of social meaning\, widely investigated in sociolinguistics\, is\nrarely considered in experimental semantics\, mainly due to the assumption that this\ntype of meaning is relatively independent from the semantic properties of its carrier.\nFollowing a recent strand of inquiry (Acton and Potts (2014)\, Glass (2015))\, this\npaper aims to fill this gap by exploring the role of semantic and pragmatic factors\nin determining the salience of the social meaning of a linguistic expression. Relying\non a social perception task\, it is shown that listeners perceive the social meaning\nof the intensifier totally − measured in terms of Solidarity and Status attributes\n− as particularly prominent in situations in which the morpheme combines with\na commitment scale provided by the pragmatics\, as opposed to when it combines\nwith a scale lexically supplied by the subsequent predicate. This evidence suggests\nthat listeners keep track of semantic information when making social evaluations\nabout speech\, pointing to social perception as a novel methodology for research in\nexperimental semantics.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Combinatorics
DESCRIPTION:The combinatorial R-matrix is the unique affine sl_n crystal isomorphism between A x B and B x A\, where A and B are finite-dimensional affine crystals corresponding to rectangular partitions. This map can be described combinatorially in terms of rectification of skew tableaux.\n\nIn this talk\, I will present a construction of a ``geometric R-matrix\,'' a rational map which has properties analogous to those of the combinatorial R-matrix\, and which tropicalizes to a piecewise-linear formula for the combinatorial R-matrix. The construction makes use of Noumi and Yamada's notion of ``tropical row insertion\,'' as well as the Grassmannian and the loop group. When both partitions are a single row\, we recover results of Yamada and Lam-Pylyavskyy. Speaker(s): Gabriel Frieden (U. Michigan)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Robot-Enabled Research Efforts to Promote Resiliency and Sustainability of Geo-Systems
DESCRIPTION:Recent advances in robotics pave new directions for our society and are destined to impact the entire breadth of the geoprofession (engineering and science)\, including the way we characterize\, design\, monitor and quantify risk of geo-systems. Robotic platforms provide an opportunity for spatially distributed\, mobile\, sensing that enable unprecedented data-driven characterization opportunities and optimized monitoring on the most critical areas and with the appropriate types of measurements. Robotic platforms not only have unprecedented sensing capabilities\, but also outstanding\, untapped\, computational capabilities that can promote data fusion and lead to better characterization of the interaction of geosystems with the environment. Examples of ongoing research efforts related to post-earthquake reconnaissance and methane emissions from modern landfills using the capabilities of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles and Unmanned Land-based Vehicles to improve our understanding of geo-processes and promote resiliency and sustainability of geo-infrastructure systems will be presented.

DESCRIPTION:THIS FILM SCREENING HAS BEEN POSTPONED. PLEASE STAY TUNED FOR RESCHEDULED DATE. \n\nJoin us for a viewing of PBS' American Masters series about Eero Saarinen. Film length: 68 minutes. \nExplore the life of Finnish-American modernist architectural giant Eero Saarinen (1910-1961)\, whose visionary buildings include National Historic Landmarks such as St. Louis’ iconic Gateway Arch and the General Motors Technical Center in Michigan. Saarinen also designed New York’s TWA Flight Center at JFK International Airport\, Yale University's Ingalls Rink and Morse and Stiles Colleges\, Virginia’s Dulles Airport\, and modernist pedestal furniture like the Tulip chair.\nTravel with his son\, Director of Photography Eric Saarinen\, as he visits the sites of his father’s work on a cathartic journey\, shot in 6K with the latest in drone technology that showcases the architect’s body of timeless work for the first time. Eero’s sudden death at age 51 cut short one of the most influential careers in American architecture. Today\, Saarinen’s work stands apart and continues to inspire\,especially amongst renewed interest in 20th-century architects and artists who exploded the comfortable constraints of the past to create a robust and daring American aesthetic. \nRemarks by Associate Film Producer: Robert Ziegelman\, B.ARCH U-M ‘58\, the originator of the film\nCredits include:\nPeter Rosen\, Director./Producer –N.Y.\nEric Saarinen\, Co-Producer/Director of Photography – Los Angeles\nRobert L.
