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:Exhibition:Chicana Fotos: Nancy De Los Santos
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: Friday\, February 17 - April 14\, 2017\nOpening Reception: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 from 4 - 7 pm\, featuring a performance by Ballet Folklórico De Detroit at 6 pm.\nGallery Talk by Nancy De Los Santos and exhibition curator Maria Cotera: Friday\, February 17\, 2017 at 12 pm\, Walter P. Reuther Library Woodcock Conference Room\nWalter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University\n5401 Cass Ave\, Detroit\, MI 48202\n\nBorn and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents\, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema\, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez\, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.\n\nIn Chicana Fotos\, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s\, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera\, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies\, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas\, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago\, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977\, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.\n\nChicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative\, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley\, Rachel Dawson\, Emilie Farrugia\, Kelsi Franzino\, Andrew Han\, Jack Hyland\, Maggie Lemak\, Megan Lewin-Smith\, Katie Mongoven\, Olivia Moore\, Pau Nava\, and Sarah Wolf.\n\nChicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte\, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive\, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.\n\nThe Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement\, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University\, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs\, civic life\, civil rights\, ethnic and religious organizations\, and community development across Southeast Michigan.\n\nChicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies\, Wayne State University\, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

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:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.\n\n\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

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:Student Probability
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss a new paper of Alfonso Bandeira\, Asaf Ferber and Matthew Kwan. It presents a different view on a classical anti-concentration problem. Classical Littlewood-Offord gives an upper bound for the concentration of the linear combinations \sum_{i=1}^n a_i*x_i\, where a = (a_i) is a fixed vector and x = (x_i) is a sequence of i.i.d. random variables. \n\nThe question of the paper is: assuming that we are in the discrete case (x_i's are symmetric Bernoulli)\, how resilient is the Littlewood-Offord's anti-concentration result\, i.e. how many of the x_i's an imaginary adversary typically allowed to change without being able to force concentration on a particular value? The authors give an asymptotic of the worst case resilience\, and an (exact) lower bound on typical resilience. Speaker(s): Liza Rebrova (UM)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM Theory Seminar | Hopping Harmonics and Entangled Wave Patterns: Adaptivity and Functionality Boosting in Metamaterial Architectures
DESCRIPTION:Mechanical metamaterials and phononic crystals are examples of architected materials that owe their unique dynamic properties to an intelligent spatial arrangement of their internal network of constitutive elements. These material systems display a variety of exotic wave manipulation properties\, which include the formation of bandgaps\, frequency-dependent wave anisotropy\, waveguiding and cloaking. One of the main challenges in the design of metamaterial systems is endowing them with tunable and adaptive capabilities. Tunability is the ability to modify a system's response through the control of some external parameters\, in order to tune it to evolving operating conditions. A system displays adaptivity when it can spontaneously modify its response in reaction to sensed changes in the characteristics of the applied excitation. These properties provide versatility and grant the material the possibility to work far from its ideal design points. The opportunities are especially broad in the realm of wave control\, in light of the inherent ability of metamaterial architectures to experience directional (anisotropic) wave propagation. In this context\, tunability implies being able to switch on and off certain directional wave characteristics and to control the pattern of the wave paths along which the energy travels in the solid. It also allows augmenting the range of functionalities that it is possible to activate by exciting the system at a given frequency. \nThis presentation provides an overview of the wave manipulation capabilities of mechanical metamaterials and phononic crystals and introduces a strategy for tunability and adaptivity that exploits the nonlinearity of the system’s response as the main tuning mechanism. The idea is based on a new outlook on the phenomenon of higher harmonic generation\, which is revisited in the context of periodic structures characterized by pronounced modal complexity. We show how\, by simply\, playing with the amplitude of excitation\, it is possible to switch on new features in the nonlinear wave response\, thus augmenting the wave directivity landscape and enhancing the overall functionalities of the medium.\nBio sketch\nStefano Gonella received Ph.D. and M.S. degrees in aerospace engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology in 2007 and 2005\, respectively. Previously\, he received a Laurea\, also in aerospace engineering\, from the Politecnico di Torino\, Italy\, in 2003. He joined the faculty of the Department of Civil\, Environmental\, and Geo- Engineering at the University of Minnesota in 2010\, after 3 years of post-doctoral and teaching experience at Northwestern University. His main research interests revolve around the modeling and simulation of complex wave phenomena in unconventional structures and materials\, with emphasis on cellular solids\, phononic crystals and acoustic metamaterials. He is also interested in the development of new methodologies for structural and material diagnostics through the mechanistic adaptation of concepts of machine learning and computer vision.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Special Seminar: Dominance patterns of woody plants in the Madidi region (Bolivian Amazon and Andes)
DESCRIPTION:The study of commonness patterns that include both local abundances and spatial distributions is a promising field for the floristic description of tropical forests. A major advance at this regard was the Oligarchy Hypothesis\, which states that the same set of common species ('oligarchic species') dominates in different sites in tropical forests. This hypothesis places the focus of attention on the common components of these highly diverse systems\, instead of on the rarity of most of its species. The seminar describes the hypothesis and the results of some research conducted in the Madidi region (Bolivia)\, one of the longest forested gradients in the world. The results indicate that regional connectivity and dispersal are important for oligarchic patterns. Although niche-based processes could shape oligarchies in the Amazon\, maybe they are not so important in other systems like the Andean forests. Overall\, the elevational gradient has a great impact on the extent at which oligarchic patterns can be detected\, as well as on the extent of the dominance of the oligarchic species in those systems.\n\nLight refreshments served at 4 p.m.

After reviewing the seminal example of Strominger-Vafa\, I will discuss challenges in AdS and the first counting of microstates for black holes in AdS4.\n\nThe computation proceeds via supersymmetric localization (applied to holography). Along the way\, we will define and compute an index for topologically twisted theories\, and explore its connections with gravity. Speaker(s): Francesco Benini (IAS)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Cosmological Constraints from Weak Gravitational Lensing Analysis of KiDS\, DES\, and WFIRST
DESCRIPTION:In the widely accepted standard model of cosmology\, the Universe is dominated by a dark sector\, composed of dark matter and dark energy. A powerful technique for studying this dark sector exploits gravitational lensing\, the phenomenon whereby the path of light travelling from distant galaxies (and as far away as the cosmic microwave background) is deflected by intervening mass structures along the line of sight. The lensing effect is sensitive to all matter\, whether visible or dark\, and can inform our understanding of the nature and evolution of the Universe. However\, the amplitude of the effect is tiny and can only be detected by averaging over many galaxies. Ongoing photometric galaxy surveys such as the Kilo Degree Survey (KiDS) and the Dark Energy Survey (DES) are providing the statistical power necessary to place precise constraints on the cosmological model. Much effort is also dedicated toward understanding potential sources of systematic error to ensure that the accuracy of these constraints is commensurate to their precision. I will describe the most recent cosmological lensing results from KiDS and DES and discuss some of the main challenges we face ahead of surveys that will be undertaken with future experiments such as the Wide Field Infrared Survey Telescope (WFIRST).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Combinatorics Seminar
DESCRIPTION:For a generic system of n polynomials in n variables over the complex numbers\, Bezout's theorem bounds the number D of common zeros (in the algebraic n-torus) by the product of the degrees of their homogenizations in P^n. Notice that if all degrees are chosen higher than some fixed prime\, say\, this bound becomes unwieldy as n grows larger. We will have an example-oriented discussion of the Bernstein-Kushnirenko-Khovanskii (BKK) Theorem\, which gives the optimal upper bound on D\, with equality for sufficiently generic systems.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Group\, Lie and Number Theory
DESCRIPTION:In seminal work\, Bhargava found many generalizations of Gauss's composition law on binary quadratic forms.  These generalizations take the form of parametrizing the orbits of the integer points of a reductive group G on a lattice in a prehomogeneous vector space V for G.  The orbits are parametrized by interesting arithmetic data.  I will explain how one can obtain twisted versions of some of these results of Bhargava.  The key idea involves \"lifting\" elements in the open orbit for the action of G on V to elements in the minimal nonzero orbit of another prehomogeneous vector space (G'\,V').\n Speaker(s): Aaron Pollack (Stanford University)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:\"Hope and Emergency\": Jill S. Harris Memorial Lecture by Rebecca Solnit
DESCRIPTION:Writer\, historian\, and activist Rebecca Solnit will deliver the Jill S. Harris Memorial Lecture\, followed by a question and answer period with the audience. ASL interpretation will be provided. Free and open to the public \n\nIn her book \"Hope in the Dark\,\" Rebecca Solnit has written about hope as not optimism\, the belief that everything will be fine\, but as uncertainty: as an uncertain future that leaves us room to act\, as the possibility that we can shape that future in some way. Drawing from histories of popular power and civil society\, of forgotten victories and remarkable campaigns\, she has made the case for remembering our power\, for using it\, and for not assuming we know what will happen—the case against the certainty that underlie both optimism and pessimism. In her book \"A Paradise Built in Hell\,\" she looked at how ordinary people are often resourceful\, altruistic\, and empathic in disaster\, forming fleeting democracies and finding purpose and meaning. \n\nIn this talk she will look at the state of hope in the present moment and what disasters like 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina can tell us about political crises and civil society\, drawing on both books and more recent political events. \n \nAbout Rebecca Solnit: Writer\, historian\, and activist Rebecca Solnit is the author of eighteen or so books on feminism\, western and indigenous history\, popular power\, social change and insurrection\, wandering and walking\, hope and disaster\, including a trilogy of atlases and the books \"Men Explain Things to Me\"\; \"The Faraway Nearby\"\; \"A Paradise Built in Hell: The Extraordinary Communities that Arise in Disaster\"\; \"A Field Guide to Getting Lost\"\; \"Wanderlust: A History of Walking\"\; and \"River of Shadows\, Eadweard Muybridge and the Technological Wild West\" (for which she received a Guggenheim\, the National Book Critics Circle Award in criticism\, and the Lannan Literary Award). A product of the California public education system from kindergarten to graduate school\, she is a columnist at Harper’s.

DESCRIPTION:35mm film presentation. Released from prison\, a humbled yakuza hitman navigates the shifting influence within his former criminal domain. It is there he is snarled into the seduction of a stunning woman\, a sybarite dead set on igniting life at the edge of danger. Gambling with their passion\, the two plunge together into the shadowy depths at the hands of acclaimed director MASAHIRO SHINODA. In a film adapted by the director from the pulp novel of SHINTARÔ ISHIHARA\, the dark\, sleek result exemplified the noir genre through the lens of the Japanese New Wave.

Recently\, neuroscientists have joined the discussion. Moving between philosophy and neuroscience\, we will investigate whether there is any evidence to support the role of musical aesthetics in the human brain.

SUMMARY:Performance:Stephen Kellogg and The South\, West\, North\, East w/ sg Don Miggs
DESCRIPTION:Over the last decade Massachusetts songwriter Stephen Kellogg has performed more than 1\,500 concerts in more than a dozen countries\, both solo and with a band. In 2013 he gave a TEDx Talk about job satisfaction. Recently on a tour of Europe\, SK (as fans often referto him) made a detour to play the Middle East\, Africa and an aircraft carrier for the Armed Forces. Upon returning to the USA\, he started his annual lyric writing campaign to raise money and awareness in the fight against pediatric cancer. At first glance none of this has anything to do with his music\, but Stephen Kellogg would argue\, \"it is the whole story. The music I make is a reflection of how I spend my time and what I care deeply about.\" His Americana-tinged\, sometimes folk\, often rock\, occasionally pop stylings can make Kellogg hard to define\, and his most recent four-part album \"South\, West\, North\, East\"—both a tetralogy and and a band—embraces the notion of genre-splitting to the fullest. Don Miggs of the San Francisco pop/rock band MIGGS opens with a solo set.
