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: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:Workshop / Seminar:Causal Inference in Education Research Seminar (CIERS): The Echo of a Promise: The Impact of State-Designated Michigan Promises Zones
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nInspired by the Kalamazoo Promise\, the state of Michigan selected 10 promise zone communities in 2009. These promise zones offer free tuition and fees to at least an associate degree for all eligible high school graduates within the promise zone. Unlike the Kalamazoo Promise\, however\, the scholarship designs of these promise programs are last-dollar and are mainly concentrated at the community college level so they may not appeal to all students within the school district. Given the requirements to become operational\, the promise zones started in a rolling pattern with Baldwin as the first promise zone in 2010 and Muskegon ISD as the last promise zone in 2015. For this paper\, I focus on the first eight promise zones which became operational from 2010-2013. I use an instrumental variable difference-in-difference design to estimate the effect of eligibility for 100 percent of the scholarship (“free” college) and any percent of the scholarship on high school graduation and college enrollment for the expected high school graduating classes of 2007 - 2014.

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:Exhibition:Constructing Gender
DESCRIPTION:Ask U-M students\, alumni\, or fans what symbolizes the University of Michigan\, and you’ll likely hear the Big House\, the Diag\, along with the Michigan Union and the Michigan League. Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

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:HET Brown Bag Seminar | Signatures of Homdeski's Gravity on Ultra-Large Cosmic Scales
DESCRIPTION:Upcoming galaxy surveys are aiming to map the largest scales of our observable universe in the next decades. With these data we can test gravity on scales near the horizon by studying the signatures of modified gravity models on large scale structure observables. \nI will present the imprints on the galaxy number counts (GNC's) and on the cross-correlation of the GNC's with CMB temperature anisotropies from certain classes of scalar-tensor theories of gravity embedded in the Horndeski Lagrangian. Furthermore fundamental properties of gravity\, e.g. the propagation speed of tensor perturbations\, can be tested using an effective field theory approach.\nDue to the remarkable modifications of relativistic effects which contribute to the considered signals\, like the integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect\, these observables allow us to constrain or even rule out some alternative models.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Medieval Lunch. What if Humans Don't have to Scapegoat Anyone? Peace Offering and Redemption in al-Mutanabbi's Poetry
DESCRIPTION:In The 1001 Nights\, the story of the “Merchant and the Demon” proffers a scapegoat escaping his fate in exchange for marvelous stories\, and in it the mercantile model of payment in full for moral debts is invoked. While The Nights offers a vivid late medieval illustration\, we can find earlier examples of this approach to scapegoating in the poetry of al-Mutanabbi (d. 965). This paper examines a suite of four poems composed and performed by al-Mutanabbi to ransom four scapegoats. The poems stage the capacity of poetry to serve as a peace offering and payment in full for moral debts in exchange for liberty.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Where Do the Rich Rule? Specifying Unequal Public Influence on American Policy Adoption
DESCRIPTION:In adopting new policy\, do policymakers respond only to the opinions of the richest American citizens\, ignoring the rest? High-profile political science research suggests that the likelihood of U.S. national policy adoption is strongly related to the share of the richest citizens who support the policy\, but—after taking the richest citizens’ opinions into account—is unrelated to the opinions of the middle class. We revisit these findings arguing that the disproportionate influence of affluent citizens is not uniform across policy proposals but is concentrated in foreign policy and in the largest proposed shifts from the status quo. Instead of archetypal inequality-increasing proposals like high-income tax cuts and deregulation\, the disproportionate influence of the affluent comes primarily in extra support for consensus foreign proposals like international agreements. Instead of slowly influencing small policy changes behind the scenes\, affluent preferences primarily block high-profile large policy changes. The rich do have stronger influence than the middle class on policy adoption\, but they succeed mostly in supporting global engagement and avoiding large-scale shift in policy. Our data enlarge Martin Gilens’ dataset from his book Affluence and Influence\, reviewing more than 1\,800 policy proposals before the national government since 1981\, but adding original information on the policy subtopics and ideological direction of each proposal.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Financial/Actuarial Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:We consider a model where a Principal requires to design separate contracts with a large number of Agents in interaction. We focus on the optimal design of these contracts\, and study in particular the mean field limit of this problem. Considering an infinite number of agents in Nash equilibrium\, the interaction between the agents is represented by a so-called mean field game. We will see that the corresponding Principal-Mean Field Agents problem rewrites in fact as a stochastic control problem on a McKean-Vlasov SDE. Particular cases of applications will be discussd and soved explicitly. This is a joint work with Dylan Possamai (Univ. Paris-Dauphine) and Thibaut Mastrolia (Ecole Polytechnique).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RTG Seminar on Geometry\, Dynamics and Topology
DESCRIPTION: In 1987\, Gromov gave several ways to convert any cell complex K into a nonpositvely curved cell complex H(K). He claimed that the metric on these new cell complexes could be made strictly negatively curved\; however\, this was later disproved. In 1995 Charney and Davis gave a modified hyperbolization technique which did produce negatively curved cell complexes. I will talk about both the Gromov and Charney-Davis versions of this result\, and then discuss some applications. Speaker(s): Kevin Schreve (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | CMB Lensing: Fundamental Physics from Maps of the Invisible
DESCRIPTION:Dark matter not only forms an invisible cosmic scaffolding within which galaxies form\, its distribution in the universe also contains a wealth of information about fundamental physics. Measurements of gravitational lensing in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) allow this matter distribution to be directly seen and mapped. In my talk\, I will discuss current and future work in this new\, rapidly advancing field. In particular\, I will show new measurements of CMB lensing with the ACTPol experiment and discuss how upcoming ultra-high-precision studies of the lensing signal will probe the properties of neutrinos and dark energy. Lensing is not only a signal\, however\, but also a source of noise that limits how much we can learn about the very early universe. With illustrations from recent work\, I will explain why delensing - removing the lensing effect to reveal the primordial sky - is crucial for the future of CMB cosmology.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Financial/Actuarial Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:The scaling properties of  historical volatility time series\, which now appear to be universal\, motivate the modeling of volatility as the exponential of fractional Brownian motion. This model can be understood as reflecting the high endogeneity of liquid markets and the long memory of order flow.  The Rough Bergomi model which is the simplest corresponding model under Q fits the implied volatility surface remarkably well.  As an application\, we show how to forecast the variance swap curve.  We also comment in detail on model calibration\, which turns out not to be straightforward. Speaker(s): Jim Gatheral (Baruch College)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Nam Center Colloquium Series | Improvisation as Cross-cultural Collaborative Gateway: Report from Korea
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, Professor Sarath will reflect upon his experience in Fall 2016 in Seoul and at the International Sori Festival in Jeonju\, South Korea\, in which he participated as performer\, speaker\, and Founder and President of the International Society for Improvised Music (ISIM). ISIM was invited to convene cross-cultural improvisation workshops and performances\, under the direction of komungo virtuoso Jin Hi Kim\, that brought together musicians from diverse backgrounds. The Joenju event was the most recent ISIM cross-cultural improvisation workshops and performances in a series that began\, with Nam Center support\, at U-M in 2011. The combination of performances and scholarly presentations raised many questions and also yielded important insights about the challenges and opportunities of improvising across wide-ranging cultural boundaries. Contrasting conceptions of time\, form\, sound\, rhythm\, texture\, interaction\, the relationship of innovation and tradition\, and the spiritual function of music are among the issues raised. He will discuss a number of these issues and also emphasize the importance of this work in creating unity in a world riddled by division and conflict. \n    \nEd Sarath is Professor of Music\, Interim Director of the Center for World Performance Studies\, and Director of the Program in Creativity and Consciousness Studies at the University of Michigan. He is founder and president of the International Society for Improvised Music and active worldwide as performer\, composer\, recording artist\, author/scholar\, and change visionary. In addition to his book Improvisation\, Creativity\, and Consciousness (SUNY 2013)\, the first to apply principles of an emergent worldview called Integral Theory to music\, he has published six other books as author\, co-author\, and co-editor and numerous articles in journals spanning a wide spectrum of disciplines. He has performed and recorded with top names in jazz and contemporary music across the globe\, and his recording New Beginnings features the London Jazz Orchestra performing his large ensemble compositions. He is a fellow of the American Council of Learned Societies\, MacDowell Arts Colony\, and National Endowment for the Arts (in both performance and composition).\n\nEvent cosponsored by the U-M Center for World Performance Studies

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Algebraic Geometry
DESCRIPTION:There has been considerable recent work to extend the algebra and geometry of Schubert polynomials from the type A case originated by Lascoux and Schutzenberger to types B\, C\, and D.  Single polynomials were given by Billey and Haiman\, and double polynomials by Ikeda\, Mihalcea\, and Naruse. Although these give many degeneracy formulas\, they do not suffice even for the classical case of ranks of symmetric or skew-symmetric matrices of homogeneous polynomials on projective spaces. \n\nFor these one needs to include symplectic and quadratic forms with values in a line bundle. In joint work with Dave Anderson\, we have constructed \"twisted double Schubert polynomials\" which have a new parameter corresponding to the line bundle.  They are in twisted versions of the classical rings\, which correspond to new and stable presentations of cohomology/Chow rings of isotropic Grassmann bundles in these types.  We show that that whole package of Type A phenomena\, including positivity assertions\, extend to these polynomials. Speaker(s): William Fulton (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Analysis/Probability
DESCRIPTION:The Thouless-Anderson-Palmer (TAP) equations are the mean field equations for mixed p-spin glasses on the hypercube. They relate the spin on a site to the field induced on the site by its neighbors. In this talk\, we will discuss recent progress regarding the understanding of these equations for a class of mixed p-spin glass models. We will explain a decomposition of the Gibbs measure into conditional laws\, each of which satisfies these equations asymptotically. This decomposition satisfies the properties predicted in the physics literature and is essentially unique. If there is time remaining\, we will discuss how a family of stochastic processes that arises in the study of this problem relates to the Parisi variational problem and how it can be used to provide PDE based methods for the evaluation of spin statistics. Joint work with Antonio Auffinger (Northwestern University). Speaker(s): Aukosh Jagannath (University of Toronto)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:\"Hebrew and Beyond: Language as a Window into the History of Israel\"
DESCRIPTION:West Bloomfield Lecture Series: Israel in the World\n\nLiora Halperin will discuss the ongoing connection between language and politics in pre-1948  British Palestine and in the State of Israel. From the Hebrew University’s choice to break from longstanding policy and formally allow dissertations to be submitted in English\, to the politics of Arabic as a minority language and the growth of the Russian speaking population in Israel\, concerns about language diversity in Israel persist today. Talking about those concerns in light of historical trends and insights is a way of talking about political divisions and cultural concerns in present-day Israel.\n\nLiora R. Halperin is an Assistant Professor of History and Jewish Studies\, and the holder of an endowed professorship in Israel/Palestine Studies at the University of Colorado Boulder. In 2016-2017 she is a fellow at the Frankel Institute for Advanced Judaic Studies at the University of Michigan. Her first book\, Babel in Zion: Jews\, Nationalism\, and Language Diversity in Palestine 1920-1948 was published by Yale University Press in 2015 and won the Shapiro prize for best book in Israel Studies from the Association for Israel Studies. She teaches courses in Jewish history\, the history of Israel/Palestine\, and the history of modern Jewish/Muslim relations. While at the Frankel Institute she is working on a book about early Jewish agricultural colonies in late 19th-century Palestine and the contested image of these communities and their iconic personalities in 20th century Palestine and Israel.\n\nImage courtesy of Tel Aviv Municipal Archive\n\nSponsored by: Frankel Institute for Advanced Judaic Studies and JCC's Seminars for Adult Jewish Enrichment

SUMMARY:Performance:Timothy Monger
DESCRIPTION:Timothy Monger is best known for his work with Michigan folk- rock group Great Lakes Myth Society\, which he co-founded with his brother James. But his solo career both predates and follows his time with that band. Just prior to forming GLMS\, Tim released his debut solo album\, \"Summer Cherry Ghosts\,\" in 2004. The lush baroque-pop song cycle earned favorable comparisons to Elliot Smith\, Electric Light Orchestra and early Bee Gees and was released in Japan the following year. Says the All Music Guide's four-star review of Tim's album \"New Britton Sound\" (recorded in Britton\, Michigan): \"Monger finds something epic within his miniature tales of friends and foes\, guitar cases\, mining accidents\, and happy drunks\, layering in unexpected instrumentation\, gently opening the songs up with sparkling guitars and keyboards\, occasionally letting the tunes soar toward their conclusion on the wings of a trumpet.\" Tim comes to Ann Arbor with his brand new third album\, \"Amber Lantern.\"
