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:Banner Moments: The National Anthem in American Life
DESCRIPTION:The new Ford Presidential Library lobby exhibit\, curated by University of Michigan musicologist Mark Clague\, illustrates through interpretive panels\, historical documents and photographs\, the cultural 200-year history of “The Star-Spangled Banner” (1814–2014). The tale that emerges demonstrates the power of music and poetry to spark the social imagination and thus create a sense of shared community.\n\nInspired by the successful defense of Baltimore\, Maryland from British attack in September 1814\, lawyer and amateur poet Francis Scott Key penned his now famous lyric. Rather than extraordinary\, Key’s creative impulse was typical of early America’s broadside ballad tradition in which new words were written to fit well known tunes. The result\, however\, was far from everyday—Key could not have predicted that his song would survive the moment\, yet become his nation’s singular anthem.\n\nFollow the “The Star-Spangled Banner” from the moments leading up to September 14\, 1814 through the present day and explore the social history of our national song.\nMarch 2017 to September 2017 \n\nMonday - Friday. 8:45 am - 4:45 pm\nClosed all Federal holidays.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Another Country
DESCRIPTION:The scenes in Another Country emerge from daily images of conflict and uprising. Discarded shoes\, tarps and handmade signs that mark the post-industrial landscape become part roadside memorial and part doomsday prophecy. These temporary sculptures - set against the backdrop of environmental decline - evoke a cautionary tale of hazmat crews and oil soaked shorelines. \n\nIf there is a place for both apathy and active resistance in the way forward to a better future\, Another Country carries the tension that’s in-between. Inspired by the visual resistance of liberation parties\, past and present\, it urges us to remember why we fight.\n\nShanna Merola is an artist\, activist\, and documentary photographer. Working for civil rights attorneys\, she photographs first amendment activity at protests and facilitates workshops on best practices during police encounters. Over the past five years she has been a human rights observer for social justice movements across the country - from the deeply embattled struggle over water rights in Detroit and Flint\, Michigan - to the frontlines of uprisings in Ferguson\, MO and Standing Rock\, ND. Her collages and constructed landscapes are informed by these rallies - from direct actions against fracking companies to the privatization of water both globally and locally. She is currently working on a collaborative production of Know Your Rights Theatre\, inspired by the politically radical puppet troupes of the 1960’s.\n\nMerola received an MFA in Photography from Cranbrook Academy of Art and a BFA in Photo and Film from Virginia Commonwealth University. She lives and works in Detroit\, Michigan.

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:GOIN’ NORTH: BLACK DETROIT  AND THE  GREAT MIGRATION\,  1910-1930
DESCRIPTION:Summary: \nExhibit of photographs and documents produced by the Michigan Historical Collections in Commemoration of Martin Luther King\, Jr. Day at the University of Michigan\, published 1991.\nBLACK DETROIT AND THE GREAT MIGRATION\n\nSince Norf is up\,\nAn’ Souf is down\,\nAn’ Hebben is up\,\nI’m upward boun’.*\nThey came to Detroit by the thousands from Georgia\, Alabama\, Tennessee\, South Caroline and they stayed. They were part of what historians characterize as a watershed in African American History-the Great Migration. From 1910 to 1930\, hundreds of thousands of Blacks headed North\, leaving the South because of economic hardship\, poor educational opportunities\, and enticed by the lure of better jobs in northern industries and more freedom. Cites in the industrial Northeast and Midwest experienced astounding increases in their Black populations\, but few more so that Detroit\, its institutions and its cultures\, took shape and developed. The problems encountered by the migrants in the form of discrimination and racial animosity were problems with which the city would grapple throughout the decades to follow.\n\nThis exhibit focused on the two major concerns of the migrants\, housing and jobs\, and on the attempts made by various organizations in adjusting to life in Detroit. It is primarily compiled from the holding s of the University of Michigan’s Bentley Historical Library\, particularly the rich collection of the Detroit Urban League. It is also drawn from the Collections of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of Labor History and Urban Affairs (Wayne State University)\, the Collections of the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village\, the Detroit News\, and tge Second Baptist Church of Detroit\, Michigan. The exhibit was prepared by Christine Weideman and Karen Jania\, staff members of the Bentley Historical Library.\n\n*From the poem\, “Northboun’” by Lucy Ariel Williams\, printed in Opportunity “: a Journal of Negro Life\, June 1926. The journal was a publication of the National Urban League.

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:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors–Part I: Figuration
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. This two-part exhibition (Part I: Figuration followed by Part II: Abstraction on view July 1– October 29) presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. The works themselves are equally diverse\, ranging from ancient sculptures to contemporary multimedia works. Part I: Figuration features works by Henri Matisse\, Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun\, Mark Tansey\, and Mickalene Thomas\, among others\, and allows visitors to explore the variety of artistic responses and purposes encompassed by the term “figuration”. It also offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\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:Workshop / Seminar:CSAAW TALK: Memory Anomalies and How to Measure Them
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:   Almost every general model of constructive memory has a lot to say about how generalizations are abstracted\, information is synthesized and patterns are discovered. In other words\, these accounts are about combining\, compressing and drawing connections. However\, many memory operations are better thought of as dividing and isolating. The paradigmatic example is a memory anomaly. For instance\, you might remember a strange interaction with a friend where their behaviour seemed out of character\, only to later discover that they had witnessed a traumatic event on that day. What is the purpose of keeping these odd memories around and how do we select for them? How does this process relate to the more familiar one of systematizing and combining? This paper compares information-theoretic and informal measures of what makes an event anomalous and proposes a preliminary theory of the kinds of weird events that should stick in our memory.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:PhonDi Discussion Group
DESCRIPTION:Arthur Brakel will present a talk entitled\, \"Phonological Markedness and Levels of Analysis\"\nAbstract\nMy project\, Portuguese Morphophonology: A Markedness Approach\, attempts to provide a complete grammar of that language’s inflectional and derivational morphophonology\, as well as that of nominal compounding. The analyses it provides are based on A) constraints on representation advocated by ‘natural’ phonologists\, B) a theory of morpheme boundary affinities\, C)  notions of markedness (rarity\, restriction\, complexity\, and opposition) I advanced in Phonological Markedness and Distinctive Features (Indiana\, 1983).\n\nIdentifying Portuguese’s 26 phonemes requires 12 distinctive features. In representative Portuguese texts each of the 12 distinctive features (phonological marks) should be present in fewer phoneme tokens than in the tokens lacking that distinctive feature (e.g. there should be fewer [+nasal] tokens than [-nasal] tokens.) And that is the case for all features\, save one: [+contoid]\, whose presence among the 18\,455 tokens in the study’s morphophonemic segmental dataset outnumbers the phoneme tokens lacking that feature. However\, in ‘systematic phonetic’ representations [+contoid] occurs in fewer tokens than [-contoid]. The issues this result brings up are: A) At what level of analysis are these markedness criteria valid evaluators of linguistic data? B) What would be the results of a feature count in Portuguese texts with extreme vowel reduction? C) Are my results a peculiarity of Portuguese? D) Are they an artifact of my analysis? E) Are they valid for Portuguese? F) In other languages’ texts do contoids’ and vocoids’ tokens occur in similar proportions?

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Sexual Harassment and Gender Discrimination on Campus
DESCRIPTION:A representative from the University of Michigan Office of Institutional Equity (OIE) will be here to provide an overview of information related to to sexual harassment and gender discrimination on campus. \n\nElizabeth Seney\, a deputy Title IX coordinator at OIE will answer the following questions: What is sexual harassment and gender discrimination? How do you report it? What community resources exist for individuals who are experiencing it? What happens when behavior is reported? The presentation will provide a broad overview of information for anyone who's been wondering how to make sense of these concepts and their associated procedures and related resources. It will also cover details about confidential reporting vs so-called \"mandatory reporting\" required of responsible employees. You'll leave with a better understanding of our community as well as with resources to have questions answered and support provided. This is recommended for interested students (graduate and undergraduate)\, faculty members\, and staff. Everyone is welcome and we hope you can join us! \n\nThis workshop is sponsored by the Society of Women in Physics and the Department of Physics Student Services Office.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The DAAS African American Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Numerous accounts have identified the racialized nature of mass incarceration and its impact on minority communities\, poverty\, crime\, inequality and even\, daily life.  Yet\, we know little about how mass imprisonment and its racially disproportionate features affect criminal justice apparatuses themselves.  Through ethnography of the criminal courts in Chicago-Cook County\, this research examines how the racial divides and segregation that define mass incarceration manifest within our criminal courts and transform them from central sites of “due process” to central sites of “racialized punishment.”   In these sites\, the mostly black and Latino defendants confront a workgroup of white professionals who are charged with classifying and deliberating on the criminality of a racialized offender pool.  Despite a host of due process protections and professionals who espouse colorblind ideologies\, the court process relies on a legal habitus entangled with racial ideologies and practices.  Court professionals use racialized tropes and narratives regarding the immoral character of criminal defendants to efficiently sort and process the backlog of cases caused by mass incarceration.  By mobilizing a moral rubric to encode racial difference\, professionals maintain court processes as “race-neutral.”  In their view\, disdain for defendants is not based on the color of their skin but the moral violations they embody – allowing racist narratives to become integrated into one’s criminal defense with impunity.  Ultimately\, this account reveals the courts as “the cultural engine” and crucial gateway for the racialization of criminal justice - where racism and discretion collide with dire effects to both the experience and appearance of justice. \n\nBio: \nNicole Gonzalez Van Cleve is an Assistant Professor at Temple University in the Department of Criminal Justice with courtesy appointments in the Department of Sociology and the Beasley School of Law.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Applied Interdisciplinary Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:We propose a phase retrieval approach that uses correlation-based measurements with compactly supported measurement masks.  The algorithm admits deterministic measurement constructions together with a robust\, fast recovery algorithm that consists of solving a system of linear equations in a lifted space\, followed by finding an eigenvector (e.g.\, via an inverse power iteration).  Theoretical reconstruction error guarantees are presented.  Numerical experiments demonstrate  robustness  and  computational  efficiency  that  outperforms  competing  approaches  on  large problems.  Finally\,  we show that this approach also trivially extends to phase retrieval problems based on windowed Fourier measurements. Speaker(s): Mark Iwen (Michigan State University)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Seminar | Hawking Radiation in a Condensate of Rubidium Atoms
DESCRIPTION:A sonic analogy for Hawking radiation was introduced nearly 40 years ago\, motivated in part by the “trans-Planckian puzzle”. This has shed light on the puzzle (which\, however\, remains enigmatic)\, and it suggested that analog Hawking radiation could one day be observed in a laboratory. That day has come. In two recent papers\, observations of Hawking radiation in rubidium condensates have been reported. The first attributed the observed features to the \"black hole laser\" effect\, while the second reported measurements of the quantum entanglement of Hawking phonons with their partners. I'll explain this circle of ideas\, describe the experiments\, and report on theoretical analyses showing that\, in fact\, the laser effect was most likely not behind the observations\, and that more work is needed to determine whether the measurements actually demonstrated entanglement.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:What is good about justice?
DESCRIPTION:Why is it a good thing if people and institutions are just? Several answers may be given\, but the only one appearing plausible understands justice as law-abidingness under a higher law\, natural law\, as it was called in the tradition\, the fulfilment of which is supposed to be a good thing. Actually we do not have evidence of there being such a higher law. So we do not have an answer to the question what makes it recommendable to be just. What people and institutions do should be judged\, then\, with a view\, not to whether it is just\, but to whether it is beneficial. True\, that will be controversial\, but so in fact is talk of things being just.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Combinatorics
DESCRIPTION:In 1997\, Terry Tao and I invented \"puzzles\" to study Horn's problem\, slightly after Klyachko had used Schubert calculus on Grassmannians for the same purpose. It turns out that these puzzles\, with their three edge labels\, connect more directly to Schubert calculus. Last year\, Pechenik-Yong and Wheeler--Zinn-Justin used them to compute equivariant K-theory of Grassmannians (using some new pieces). But what about d-step flag manifolds? In 2014\, (equivariant) cohomology of 2-step flag manifolds was puzzlified\, proving a conjecture of mine from 1999.\n\nTo force the three sides of a puzzle to relate to the same flag manifold\, we assign a vector to each edge label\, which leads to vector configurations of 3 vectors (for d=1)\, 8 for d=2\, and 27 for d=3\; the configurations correspond to the weights of the minuscule representations of A_2\, D_4\, and E_6. From the Jimbo R-matrices of these representations\, we derive some new puzzle rules. Speaker(s): Allen Knutson (Cornell)

DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nWe study a dynamic\, decentralized exchange economy with aggregate uncertainty about the relative scarcity of a commodity. We characterize price discovery and show how traders gradually learn about the state of the market through equilibrium actions. Such learning leads to equilibrium outcomes that are approximately competitive when the frictions are small. We derive equilibrium price and trading patterns related to learning\, experimentation\, and regret.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:RC Talks: \"Early Female Gamelan Buskers: Social Persona and Musical Style\"
DESCRIPTION:For centuries\, professional female entertainers\, taledhek\, have been Java’s premier buskers\, singing and dancing in the streets\, in erotic dance parties and fertility rites accompanied by the gamelan. By  presenting short life histories of a few of these women\, Dr. Walton shows how their musical style and persona eschew middle class Javanese gender norms. Drawing on recordings from the 1920s and 1930s\, ethnographic fieldwork with aging male gamelan musicians and taledhek\, and information from literary sources\, Dr. Walton will  analyze the musical characteristics of the early taledhek’s style and how those musical elements shifted when some taledhek started to perform in the courts in the early 20th century.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Observing the Generation\, Propagation and Dissipation of Internal Waves in the Ocean
DESCRIPTION:Recent work has shown that turbulence in the ocean due to breaking internal gravity is one of the largest uncertainties in climate models.  Knowledge of the horizontal and vertical distribution of the turbulence is crucial\, which is challenging because internal waves can travel far from their sources and can break via a variety of mechanisms.  In this talk I will first introduce internal waves for non-specialists\, then walk through an example in the South China Sea where waves can be tracked from their source to their breaking locations\, and a rough energy budget determined.  Then I’ll discuss recent progress in tracking internal wave energy from generation to cross-basin propagation to dissipation on the globe\, focusing on recent efforts to constrain 1) q\, the fraction of locally dissipated energy and 2) the reflection coefficient which determines the partition of energy breaking over continental margins versus in the deep basins.  A key thread of these analyses is the constant interplay between observations and high-resolution models.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Angel Gallego Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:Angel Gallego (UAB) will present a talk entitled\, \"Strict and flexible cyclicity in phase theory.\"\n\nAbstract\nThis talk has two goals. On the one hand\, it discusses recent phase-theoretic conceptions of “strict cyclicity\,” which typically involve the application of an operation (Spell-Out\, Transfer\, etc.)\; in particular\, I discuss the possibility that Transfer does not remove the syntactic objects created in the course of a derivation (which I relate to the similar role played by the Phase Impenetrability and the No Tampering Conditions). On the other hand\, I review the empirical evidence suggesting that NPs and PPs do not align with CPs and vPs when it comes to certain strict-cyclicity defining properties\; although the facts do not argue that NPs and PPs are locality-free domains\, they do suggest that the notion “phase” (sensu Chomsky 2000 et seq.) does not quite apply to them.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Biophysics Seminar: Professor Adam W. Smith\, University of Akron
DESCRIPTION:The plasma membrane is the boundary between a cell and its surroundings. At the membrane\, cells present an array of protein receptors that process environmental cues. The spatial and temporal arrangement of these receptors is critical to function\, but the forces driving this organization are not well understood. Membrane protein dimerization\, for example\, is a key regulator of many receptor pathways\, but its role in others is still controversial or completely unknown. Assembly of receptor complexes upon ligand stimulation is central to many signaling pathways\, but the kinetics and thermodynamics of the assembly process are still poorly understood. Lipids in the membrane have been hypothesized to play many structural and regulatory roles in receptor activation\, but the details of the lipid-protein interface are still largely unexplored because of experimental difficulties. I will describe two ongoing projects in my group. In the first project we investigate membrane protein interactions in live cells using PIE-FCCS and related methods. These efforts have led to several key insights into the organization and activation mechanism of receptors like plexins\, growth factor receptors\, and visual photoreceptors. The second project is to resolve the details of lipid-protein coupling in model membranes to build a more complete picture of the chemical landscape that governs cell communication.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CSAS Lecture Series | The Political Theology of Vernacularization in Premodern India
DESCRIPTION:In Maharashtra in the 13th century\, a new regional literature in Marathi joined together religious expression and social critique of caste and gender inequities as endemic to everyday life.  This lecture will argue that the focus on everyday life and its social vicissitudes marks the very quality of vernacularization at all times\, even today in the “vernacularization of democracy.”  Vernacularization compels an engagement with quotidian social order discussed in the language and publics of everyday life.\n\nThe materials to be examined in this talk involve three sources: 1) Marathi inscriptions from the 12th to early 14th centuries\; 2) the Lilacharitra (1278)\, the first extant work of Marathi literature\; and 3) the Jnaneshwari (1290)\, often considered the first self-consciously literary work of Marathi.  Through these sources we will see the idea emerge that everyone\, regardless of caste\, class\, or gender\, is entitled to hear the words of spiritual salvation even if social equality remains an elusive possibility of the future.  \n\nChristian Novetzke is a Professor in the South Asia Program\, the Comparative Religion Program\, and the International Studies Program at the University of Washington’s Jackson School of International Studies\, where he holds a College of Arts and Sciences Endowed Professorship. He also serves as the Associate Director of the Jackson School and the Director of the Center for Global Studies. His books include: Religion and Public Memory (Columbia University Press\, 2008)\;  Amar Akbar Anthony: Bollywood\, Brotherhood\, and the Nation (with Andy Rotman and William Elison\, Harvard University Press\, 2016)\; and The Quotidian Revolution: Vernacularization\, Religion\, and the Premodern Public Sphere in India (Columbia University Press\, 2016).\n\nCosponsored by the Department of History.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Dressing the Head: Romantic Styling in Ingres’s Portraiture
DESCRIPTION:This lecture explores Ingres’s portraits from the 1820s and his sympathetic response to new features of appearance\, as the bourgeoisie created its own way of styling the body and the head so as to display its ethics and aesthetics.   The role of the hairdresser as a rival artist is also examined\, along with the cultural symbolism and political connotations of the dressed head.    \n\nSusan L. Siegfried received her PhD from Harvard University and has taught at the University of Leeds in Great Britain\, where she directed the MA in the Social History of Art\, and at Northwestern University in the United States. Her major research has been on European art of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries\, especially the French art world of the Revolutionary and Romantic periods. Her research interests include the thematisation of gender\, social spaces for viewing art\, and theoretical models of interpretation. She is currently preparing a book on Ingres\, as a central figure in the emergence of new imaginative paradigms informing artistic practice and responses to art in the early nineteenth century. She has organized and contributed to major exhibitions in her field (The Age of Watteau\, Chardin and Fragonard: Masterpieces of French Genre Painting\, National Gallery of Canada\, National Museum of Art\, and Gemaldegalerie\, 2003-4\; The Art of Louis-Léopold Boilly\, Kimbell Art Museum and National Gallery of Art\, 1995-6\; and Works by J.-A.-D. Ingres in the Collection of the Fogg Art Museum\, 1980). In previous work for the J. Paul Getty Trust\, Los Angeles\, she helped develop national and international policy for the arts and humanities in the area of information policy\; publications in this area include \"The Policy Landscape\" in The Politics of Culture\, 2000.
