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.

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.

Instead\, she taps into the energy of community and its humanness—restless\, frenetic\, din\, a choir\, extending beyond the confines of walls. \n\nSnelling’s representations are neither judgmental nor opportunistic. They unaffectedly and objectively offer a multidimensional sketch of a place in time\, how we occupy space. \n\nHer signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks\" (included in this exhibition along with new work created during her her residency here) pushes up against the challenges of economic inequalities\, racial biases\, and imposed class divisions that often limit the options available to so many people. Concurrently\, the installation embraces our everyday existence expressed through Snelling’s exuberant palette\, bold graphics\, video and neon. \n\nConceptually\, Snelling’s stacking method first creates an exalted “big picture” with a myriad of colors\, image\, text\, sound and light. The counterpoint in scale soon immerses the viewer into each small world. With this shift\, the onlooker becomes the active participant\, the occupant in situ\, adding the trappings of their own experiences to each tableau. It is this shift that forces the viewer into a new way of seeing from varying perspectives.\n\nOn the one hand\, the artist’s sculptures allude to our desire for refuge\, a private domain that allows us to be ourselves. On the other\, the overall composition reaffirms it is imperative that we co-exist with one another respectfully\, forge relationships\, understanding our marked differences. It is diversity—the unique and often disparate combination of things\, the cacophony of it all\, that activates communities and public space.\n\nSnelling’s constructions literally build a way out\, one on top of another\, charged with the undercurrent of the way we live. They emphasize our universal longing to find a place called home\, and be accepted\, built on the foundation of one and of many. \n–Amanda Krugliak\, Arts Curator\, Institute for the Humanities\n\nAbout Tracey Snelling:\nThrough the use of sculpture\, photography\, video\, and large-scale installation\, Tracey Snelling gives her impression of a place\, its people and their experience. Often\, the cinematic image stands in for real life as it plays out behind windows in the buildings\, sometimes creating a sense of mystery\, other times stressing the mundane. Snelling’s work derives from voyeurism\, film noir\, and geographical and architectural location. Within this idea of location\, themes develop that transport observation into the realm of storytelling\, with reality and sociological study being the focus. Snelling had exhibited in international galleries\, museums and institutions\, including the The Royal Museum of Fine Arts\, Belgium\; Palazzo Reale\, Milan\; Museum of Arts and Design\, New York\; Kunstmuseen Krefeld Germany\; El Museo de Arte de Banco de la Republica\, Bogota\; the Stenersen Museet\, Oslo\, and the Sundance Film Festival. Her short films have screened at the San Francisco International Film Festival\, the Thessaloniki International Film Festival\, Circuito Off in Venice\, Italy\, and the Arquiteturas Film Festival Lisboa in Portugal. She also received a 2015 Joan Mitchell Painters and Sculptors Grant. Snelling lives and works in Oakland\, California and Berlin\, Germany.

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 UID:44929-10012443@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/44929 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Architecture,Exhibition,symposium LOCATION:Art and Architecture Building CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170214T121614 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20170321T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20170321T160000 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Accordingly\, the fraction of rural households receiving multiple pensions via a spouse increased by nearly 20 percentage points. In this paper\, we examine the effect this sudden increase in spousal pensions had on household labor supply. Our results suggest that male heads of household significantly and substantially reduced their labor supply in response to receipt of pensions by their female spouses\, however the effect was short-lived.

Among monogamous prairie voles\, vasopressin receptor (avpr1a) levels in brain regions related to spatial memory predict male space-use and sexual fidelity in the field. We find that trade-offs between the benefits of male fidelity and infidelity are reflected in patterns of territorial intrusion\, offspring paternity\, avpr1a expression and the evolutionary fitness of alternative avpr1a alleles. DNA variation at the avpr1a locus includes polymorphisms that reliably predict the epigenetic status and neural expression of avpr1a\, while patterns of DNA diversity demonstrate avpr1a regulatory variation has been favored by selection. In prairie voles\, trade-offs in the fitness consequences of social behaviors seem to promote neuronal and molecular diversity.

His research characterizes the conceptual frameworks and patterns of reasoning used by chemistry students to answer questions and solve problems that require qualitative reasoning (e.g.\, classification\, prediction\, inference\, comparison). He is exploring how students' ideas and reasoning strategies evolve as they develop more expertise in the discipline (trajectories of expertise). These studies are of central importance not only to design learning progressions that foster meaningful learning but also to improve the preparation of future chemistry teachers through the development of their assessment thinking (to learn more see The University of Arizona Chemistry and Biochemistry Department). \n\nREBUILD and the Center for Research on Learning and Teaching are talking to administrators\, faculty\, staff and students across the University about foundational courses. Our goal is to generate a shared vision and agenda for a program of collaborative course design to advance teaching and learning in foundational courses at the University of Michigan.\n\nThe Foundational Course Initiative Seminar Series features high-profile speakers who have extensive experience leading the transformation of foundational courses to incorporate innovative technologies\, research-based pedagogies\, systematic assessment strategies\, and novel approaches to supporting the success of diverse students at scale.

In this new world\, educational and even personal interactions are often digitally mediated. When they are\, they leave traces: data which reflect what students are doing\, when\, how much\, how well\, and with whom. The ability to observe and analyse both the process and product of education has fueled explosive growth in a new field called learning analytics which is helping us to better understand how student behaviors relate to learning and to personalize educational experiences at scale.\n\nBuilt on tools originally developed for digital health coaching\, Michigan's ECoach tool allows us to provide students with personalized feedback\, encouragement\, and advice even in courses which enroll thousands of students. ECoach uses everything we know about each student's background\, interest\, goals\, and current state to tailor the content they receive: changing what we say\, when and how we deliver the message\, and even who delivers the message. This last is done by providing students with testimonials from identity salient peers. Tailored coaching tools like this hold great promise for student support at scale. In this work\, we draw on decades of behavior change research: nudging students at key moments\, providing interventions designed to affirm values\, build a sense of belonging\, and encourage a growth mindset. While these tools have so far been applied with an academic focus\, they hold great promise for providing advice and basic counseling at scale.

A Conversation Between Matthew Desmond and Alex Kotlowitz\" DESCRIPTION:Harvard sociologist Matthew Desmond (MacArthur 2015) takes us into the poorest neighborhoods of Milwaukee to tell the story of eight families on the edge. In Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City\, Desmond argues that eviction is an active cause of poverty\, not merely a reflection of it. Combining extraordinary storytelling with meticulous research\, Evicted has been praised as a landmark work of scholarship and reportage that “has set a new standard for reporting on poverty” (Barbara Ehrenreich\, New York Times Book Review) Desmond will be joined in conversation by author and journalist Alex Kotlowitz.\n\nAbout Matthew Desmond: \nMacArthur “Genius” Matthew Desmond’s New York Times bestselling book\, Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City\, draws on years of embedded fieldwork and painstakingly gathered data. It was named one of the Top Books of 2016 by nearly three dozen outlets including The New York Times\, The Washington Post\, Publishers Weekly\, Entertainment Weekly\, Kirkus\, Boston Globe and Wall Street Journal. Including it on her personal best-of-the-year list\, Jennifer Senior of the New York Times also called it 2016’s most “unignorable” book: “Nothing else this year came close.”\n\nAbout Alex Kotlowitz:\nAlex Kotlowitz is an award-winning journalist and bestselling author who has been exploring issues of race and poverty in America for over twenty years. His 1991 book\, There Are No Children Here: The Story of Two Boys Growing Up in the Other America\, garnered national recognition for its compassionate and unflinching portrait of Pharoah and Lafeyette Rivers and their lives growing up in a public housing project in inner city Chicago.

The resulting mechanical metamaterial has several interesting properties and applications\, with further modifications enabling conformal electronics and transformative improvements in the economics of solar energy harvesting. Part II – A simple thin-film printing technique is used to generate 2-dimensional patterns micrometers across that also contain complex nano-crystalline structures within the patterned deposits. These nanocrystalline structures exhibit interesting dissolution behavior that unlocks new frontiers for pharmaceutical discovery\, formulation\, and production. In each case\, the nominally 2-dimensional patterning technologies are used to generate structure that circumvents long-standing technological and application trade-offs – an approach applicable to other areas of innovation. \n\nReferences:\n1.

It is based on 18 months of ethnographic research with grassroots legal forums in Rwanda\, including genocide courts (gacaca courts) in which suspects from the 1994 genocide were tried among their neighbors before locally elected judges\, as well as mediation committees for ordinary disputes (comite y'abunzi) and a legal aid clinic. Prof Doughty has also researched and/or written on memorialization and education in Rwanda\, and on the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda.\n\nProfessor Doughty’s current research project examines the intersection of energy politics and post-genocide reconstruction in Rwanda through a focus on methane extraction in Lake Kivu. This research is funded by grants from the Wenner Gren foundation and National Science Foundation.

In many problems\, e.g. compactifications of moduli spaces\, one considers sequences A_i of such connections which converge to a potentially singular limit connection A_i-> A . The convergence may not be smooth\, and we can understand the blow up region by converging the energy measures |F_i|^2 dv_g -> |F|^2dv_g +\nu\, where \nu=e(x)d\lambda^{n-4} is the n-4 rectifiable defect measure (e.g. think of \nu as being supported on an n-4 submanifold). It is this defect measure which explains the behavior of the blow up\, and thus it is a classical problem to understand it. The main open problem on this front is to compute e(x) explicitly as the sum of the bubble energies which arise from blow ups at x\, a formula known as the energy identity. This talk will primarily be spent explaining in detail the concepts above\, with the last part focused on sketching a few details of the recent proof of the energy quantization\, which is joint with Daniele Valtorta. The techniques may also be used to give the first apriori higher derivative estimates on Yang Mills connections\, and we will discuss these results as well.

On the one hand\, one can define the zeta function of X. It is a generating function of the numbers of points of X over any finite extensions F_{q^m} of F_q. The famous Weil conjecture is about the properties of this generating function. On the other hand\, one can study the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves of X. Orlov has conjectured that derived equivalent smooth\, projective varieties have isomorphic motives. It implies that they have the same zeta functions if they are defined over a finite field. In this talk\, I will discuss some results on this conjecture and the main references are papers by Katrina Honigs.

Each semester\, Writer to Writer pairs one esteemed University professor with a Sweetland faculty member for a conversation about writing. \n\nThis month Writer to Writer welcomes Clare Croft. Clare Croft is a historian\, theorist\, and dramaturg\, working at the intersection of dance studies and performance studies. She specializes in 20th and 21st century American dance\, cultural policy\, feminist and queer theory\, and critical race theory. In all of these areas\, Croft considers how dance is a way of thinking and a mode for asking questions. What does it mean to acknowledge that people have bodies and that they use their bodies to make meaning\, create community\, and critique social structures? \n\nCroft's current book project\, Funding Footprints: Dance and American Diplomacy (Oxford University Press)\, examines the history of U.S. State Department funding of international dance tours. Croft's writing about dance has appeared in Dance Research Journal\, Theatre Journal\, and Theatre Topics\, and is forthcoming in Dance Chronicle. From 2002-2005\, Croft was a regular contributor to The Washington Post\, and from 2005-2010\, she covered dance\, as well as theatre and musical theatre\, for the Austin American-Statesman.\n\nIn 2010\, Croft's article\, \"Ballet Nations: The New York City Ballet's 1962 U.S. State Department-Sponsored Tour of the Soviet Union\,\" received the American Society of Theatre Research's Biennial Sally Banes Publication Prize\, which recognizes the publication that best explores the intersections of theatre and dance/movement. Croft was also the 2007 recipient of the Society of Dance History Scholar's Selma Jeanne Cohen Award. At the University of Michigan\, Croft teaches courses in the BFA and MFA dance programs\, as well as in the BFA interarts program. \n\nWriter to Writer takes place at the Literati bookstore and are broadcast live on WCBN radio. These conversations offer students a rare glimpse into the writing that professors do outside the classroom. You can hear instructors from various disciplines describe how they handle the same challenges student writers face\, from finding a thesis to managing deadlines. Professors will also discuss what they want from student writers in their courses\, and will take questions put forth by students and by other members of the University community. If there's anything you've ever wanted to ask a professor about writing\, Writer to Writer gives you the chance.

The book\, composed in the middle of the second century BCE\, reflects a unique and revolutionary stream of thought in ancient Judaism that would have an impact on later generations. Namely\, God in the biblical books of Joshua 2 Kings is presented as reluctant to appoint a king (1 Samuel 8) and later when kings become active in the history of Israel\, He blatantly intervenes in their rule one by one and most of the time. In contradistinction\, the Maccabean family created a dynasty and ruled with hardly any intervention of God who remains passive throughout their rule. This was made possible since they perceived their regime as being a 'time of exception'\, mentioned in the 1 Book of Maccabees by the expression \"until a true prophet should arise\". Their liberation from a \"competitive\" God\, a higher interventative authority\, may be interpreted as a major achievements during their fight for freedom from Seleucid rule. The lecture will also deal with a significant streak of criticism on behalf of the author towards the too independent decision making procedures of the first Hasmoneans.

These highly seasoned artists and bandleaders have demonstrated a natural ability to contribute to each other’s music through harmonies and guitar\, each building upon the others’ songs. Southern Soul Assembly draws from the rich legacy of American Southern culture. Their collaborative live shows cultivate heartfelt storytelling that draws from the members’ Southern roots\, combining blues\, funk\, and rock to produce unique\, full-bodied performances. “Just like food in the South\, our music is greasier than most\,” says member Marc Broussard.

Additional music by American composers Stevie Wonder\, John Coltrane\, Meredith Monk\, John Cage\, Tom Waits\, Charles Ives\, and Rush. The audience will experience the concert twice (or more)\, through 8-channel audio diffusion\, with chopped-up playback of each piece\, played over the actual performance by Rush himself. In other words\, the music will be digitally parsed and played randomly (in small gestures) against the performance of the recital itself. To make matters even more interesting\, the audience gets to select the order of the recital/circus by polling here: myumi.ch/aXwnp. \n\nThe concert is under an hour\, suitable for all ages\, and seating is limited to 80. Please arrive early. UID:38514-7204550@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/38514 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Free,Music,North campus LOCATION:Earl V.
