SUMMARY:Exhibition:Window Installation | Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and professor Jim Cogswell has been invited by the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology and the University of Michigan Museum of Art to create a set of public window installations in response to the objects in their collections. Titled \"Cosmogonic Tattoos\,\" his project uses adhesive vinyl images applied in saturated colors to windows in the two buildings\, highlighting the role of these museums in the life of our campus community. Through close examination of objects separated from us by deep chronological and cultural divides\, imaginatively transformed within our campus context\, this project celebrates the power of architecture\, ornament\, and material objects to shape knowledge\, historical memory\, and cultural identity.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Photography into Fiber: ArtPrize Winner
DESCRIPTION:Steve and Ann Loveless both grew up in northwestern lower Michigan and love the nature and beauty of the outdoors. Steve is a fine art photographer\, and Ann is a textile artist. After exhibiting some of Ann’s textile designs inspired by Steve’s photography\, they had the idea to create works that morph a photograph into a textile. One aspect of the process is that it can trick the viewer into questioning what they are seeing and invite them to engage more with the work. Northwood Awakening\, a 25 by 5 foot piece that was the ArtPrize 2015 Public Vote Grand Prize winner\, will be on display.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Under Covers: Encaustic & Mixed Media
DESCRIPTION:Cat Crotchett’s current work combines elements of eastern and western cultural patterns in fragments that together form something different than their individual parts. These images represent an intersection of information as well as ideas of cultural appropriation\, assimilation\, fragmentation and alteration. Crotchett uses wax because it is relevant to both eastern and early western artistic cultures. A professional artist for over 30 years\, Crotchett has exhibited nationally and internationally. She is a professor at Western Michigan University and lives in Kalamazoo\, Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents When Pigs Fly: Oil Painting
DESCRIPTION:Professional artist and instructor Gregory Potter believes that anyone can develop artistic skill if they put the work into it. Potter’s teaching helps with that\, but he also shows his paintings in art fairs\, galleries and even Army barrack walls\, anywhere people enjoy art and laughing out loud. A flightless bird\, his flamingo isn’t deep or subversive\, but it does have a top hat and is riding on the back of a zebra that is standing in a nest powered by a propeller. Nothing unusual for a man who served four tours in the Middle East. Working in his home gallery in Franklin\, Indiana\, he is amused as viewers sometimes see his animals as “above all the B.S.” or “leaving without knowing where [they’re] going.”

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:FinTech Risks and Opportunities: An Interdisciplinary Approach
DESCRIPTION:This two-day event will bring together a wide range of researchers\, policymakers\, students\, and\npractitioners from various disciplines.\n\nFinancial technology\, or FinTech\, can be traced back to the introduction of the telegraph in the 1860s. Between then and the 1980s\, most FinTech advancements were record-keeping and data systems found in the back offices of financial institutions\, out of sight of the public. As internet technology became more available\, however\, FinTech evolved rapidly. Financial firms digitized their processes\, and companies began introducing consumer-facing products such as online banking and PayPal.\n\nToday\, FinTech continues to disrupt and to evolve\, not only in how financial products and services are delivered\, but who delivers them. Regulators and market participants face challenges in\nunderstanding and balancing the benefits of FinTech against potential risks. Innovation helps catalyze growth and new opportunities while generating new risks. Regulatory structures in place could fail to accommodate changes in the financial marketplace. Regulators may overreact to new technologies\, stifling innovation and locking in old forms of doing business. At the same time\, regulatory complacency can have disastrous results\, permitting the buildup of systemic risk or widespread consumer harms.\n\nThis conference will explore methodologies that the private sector\, researchers\, and policymakers\ncan use harness the upside potential of financial innovation while reducing the downside risks.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:American Berserk exhibition by Valerie Hegarty
DESCRIPTION:Throughout her career\, Brooklyn-based artist Valerie Hegarty has explored fundamental themes of American history and particularly the legacy of 19th-century American art\, addressing topics such as colonization\, slavery\, Manifest Destiny\, nationalism and environmental degradation. Elaborating upon visual references to the art-historical canon of North America\, Hegarty repurposes the ideological tenets of such works into a critical examination of the American legacy.\n\nThe show’s title\, American Berserk\, is borrowed from Philip Roth’s Pulitzer-winning novel American Pastoral\, in which he defines the inverse of the American pastoral ideal as the “indigenous American Berserk.” The show includes a group of ceramic sculptures and a mixed-media site-specific sculpture jutting from the wall. Hegarty’s anarchic\, revisionist take on American history as manifested in the nation’s artistic legacy is embodied in her fantastical works. The sculptures\, which seem imported from a parallel universe\, include watermelons that become animated\, explode and then decay\, sly depictions of George Washington as a series of topiaries\, spectral clipper ships sinking and calcifying into shells\, a branch breaking through the wall and piercing a painting of George Washington making his nose appear to grow and a duo of “fruit face” personae that survey the surreal proceedings.\n\nNote: This grouping of works is an edited restaging of the original show that was initially presented at Burning in Water gallery in New York in 2016.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Moving Image: Portraiture
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Portraiture presents a contemporary spin on traditional notions of portraiture. In the video Towards An Architect\, Hannu Karjalainen portrays a fictional architect who is experiencing the response of people living in the structures he designed. Daniel Rozin’s Mirror No. 10 is driven by software\, written by the artist\, that generates a real-time reflection of the environment the screen is displayed in—specifically a live sketch of the viewer approaching the frame. Mesocosm (Northumberland\, UK) is an algorithmic work by Marina Zurkow that depicts the passage of time on the moors of Northeast England.\n\nMoving Image: Portraiture is the third of three exhibitions drawn from the collection of the Borusan Contemporary\, Istanbul\, which since 2011 has been focused on media arts. The works in this series address both formal concerns and conceptual topics\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\n\nLead support for Moving Image: Portraiture is provided by the 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:Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa
DESCRIPTION:Before colonization\, complex hierarchical societies flourished in Central and West Africa. At their summits were a select few—kings and chiefs whose authority was derived from their direct connection to powerful ancestors and predecessors. These rulers were wrapped in expensive textiles or costly furs\, and covered in beads and precious metals\, materials that not only signaled their extraordinary status\, but were also intended to safely contain the great power they wielded. The famous minkisi (meaning “power figure”) sculptures of Central Africa were similarly activated through the addition of charged materials. Textiles\, animal skin\, metal\, and beads allowed the lifeless wooden carvings to be activated by local spiritual leaders in order to communicate with the realm of the ancestors and spirits. This exhibition explores the parallels between the adornment of the king’s physical body and minkisi. Drawing on works from UMMA’s collection and several loans\, the exhibition demonstrates how authority was expressed and power contained across a range of historical cultures in Nigeria\, Ghana\, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Cameroon.\n\nLead support for Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AE285 Undergraduate Seminar | Wastes in Space: Closed-Loop Life Support
DESCRIPTION:Sarah Shull’s 16-year career at NASA Johnson Space Center has spanned 9 years in Mission Control\, 6 years in the Engineering Directorate and 1 year in the Exploration Mission Planning Office.   This talk with touch a bit on all three areas\, with a technical emphasis on her work developing reliable\, energy-efficient\, and low-mass spacecraft systems to provide environmental control and life support systems (ECLSS) critical to enabling long duration human missions beyond low Earth orbit (LEO).   \n\nNASA’s work on life support systems (LSS) focuses on four areas: architecture and systems engineering for life support systems\, environmental monitoring\, air revitalization\, and wastewater processing and water management.  Starting with the international space station (ISS) LSS systems as a point of departure (where applicable)\, the goal is to address discrete LSS technology gaps\, improve the reliability of LSS systems and advance exploration systems towards integrated testing on the ISS.  This talk will elaborate on the work done to-date on the goals above as well as an overview of NASA’s current plans for exploration beyond LEO.\n\n\nAbout the speaker...\n\nSarah Shull works in the Exploration Mission Planning Office at NASA's Johnson Space Center where she is the Technical Monitor on the Sierra Nevada Corporation NextSTEP Habitation contract and the Systems Engineering Lead for the Exploration Systems Division End-to-end Mission Performance Team. Prior to these roles\, Sarah spent six years in the Crew and Thermal Systems Division where she was the Deputy Project Manager for the Advanced Exploration Systems (AES) Life Support Systems Project and the group lead for the Environmental Control and Life Support Systems (ECLSS) Technology Development Team.  Prior to that\, Sarah worked for 10 years in JSC's Mission Operations Directorate supporting Space Shuttle and ISS missions.  Sarah holds a bachelor’s degree in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Michigan and a master’s degree in Aeronautics and Astronautics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).   She is an Associate Fellow of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Making A Difference: Women\, Art and Activism in South Africa Today
DESCRIPTION:Women’s collaborations continue to lead the way in a number of critical human rights issues in post-apartheid South Africa: historical memory and heritage\; housing and land rights\; HIV/AIDS\; LGBTI rights and the right to safety at home and at work without fear of violence. The ongoing struggles for these rights are usually intertwined.  \n\nAt the UN Women Summit in May 2016\, the Executive Director\, Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka\, specifically highlighted the critical importance of women’s role\, “Experience and research show that when women are included in humanitarian action\, the entire community benefits…Women must be included in decision-making about the forms of assistance\, means of delivery\, and the provision of the protection and economic and social empowerment opportunities they need so they can be agents of change.” (http//www.unwomen.org/en/news/in-focus/humanitarian-actionhashtagsthash.RBIoHrzc.dpuf)\n\nThis lecture argues that while the conventional political terrain in South Africa appears to be stalling on delivering the fruits of a democratic process\, a new space for effective political activism on the ground has been opened up by women makers and artists. The lecture explores some of the extraordinary projects which have taken the initiative to transform complex social environments  still blighted by the devastating legacy of the apartheid years and the economic and health challenges presented by years of official denialism in the face of the AIDS/HIV pandemic. It argues that gender is a critical component in the wider social efficacy of these art projects.\n\nThe lecture contends that the art and creative collaborations examined in this research has lent agency to women activists and has become an effective means of challenging the authorities and raising awareness of women’s rights. It argues that the mental and physical health benefits arising from these processes have enabled the confident transmission of accessible and lifesaving knowledge.\n\nSpeaker Bio:\n\nAnnie E. Coombes is Professor of Material and Visual Culture in the Department of Art History and Founding Director of the Peltz Gallery at Birkbeck\, University of London. Coombes is an art and cultural historian specializing in the history of the culture of British colonialism and its legacy in the present\, particularly in Africa (Kenya and South Africa) and in former settler colonies. Her prize-winning books include: History After Apartheid: Visual Culture and Public Memory in a Democratic South Africa (2003) and Reinventing Africa: Museums\, Material Culture and Popular Imagination in Late Victorian and Edwardian England (1994).\n\nImage credit: Nondumiso Hlwele\, Body Map\, 2002

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Alan J. Hunt Memorial Lecture: Christopher S. Chen\, M.D.\, Ph.D.
DESCRIPTION:In vivo\, local tissue structure defines the cellular environment\, constraining how cells interact with surrounding extracellular matrix substrates\, neighboring cells\, soluble growth factors\, and physical forces.  These “microenvironmental” cues in turn play a central role in regulating the behavior of individual resident cells\, such as proliferation\, differentiation\, migration\, and suicide.  Here\, I will present 3D culture platforms that are able to recapitulate more complex functions of biological tissues\, and how we are using them to gain deeper insights into disease and physiology.\n\nRefreshments in the lobby following the lecture.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB MUSEUMS Monthly Seminar: Michigan's First Survey and Pre-settlement Biodiversity
DESCRIPTION:Michigan is unique in that immediately after achieving statehood in\n1837\, the fledgling Legislature authorized a comprehensive \"First\nGeological Survey\" of the State's natural resources. This included not\nonly geology and soils\, but also timber resources\, and a survey of\nplants and animals\, and it included the collection of specimens which\nbecame the foundation of the present day Museum and Herbarium\ncollections. The plant collections are especially extensive\, but were\npoorly labeled and suffered from past curatorial practises that\ndiminished their value. But\, reconstructing the data and itineraries\nfrom several sources provides a detailed view of the flora and\, to\nsome degree\, the vegetation of the state before extensive modification\nby European settlement\, as well as insight into local extinctions and\nother changes in the flora.

IRT is a program that helped her apply to graduate school by covering the cost of applying and providing GRE prep. \n\nWhat is IRT? \nThe IRT addresses the lack of diversity in the nation's teaching faculties by recruiting outstanding students of color and other scholars committed to diversity\, counseling them through the graduate school application process\, and advocating for sufficient funding for advanced study. Since 1990\, the IRT has built a national consortium of colleges and universities that are eager to enroll IRT students to diversify their graduate student bodies and to expand the pipeline of educators to teach\, counsel\, and administrate in American schools\, colleges\, and universities. \n\nFrom early September through mid-November\, all IRT participants receive the following support throughout the graduate school application process at no charge\, which include: \n1. Individualized support and extensive counseling as fellows choose graduate programs and apply to a renowned consortium of graduate schools across the country \n2. Application fee waivers for up to 12 consortium schools \n3. Assistance in fine-tuning statements of purpose\, resumes\, and writing samples \n\nAdditionally\, the IRT sponsors a Summer Workshop\, a paid internship on the Phillips Academy campus\, located just outside of Boston\, MA. Participants engage in a graduate-level curriculum of critical\, cultural\, and educational theory during an intense four-week program\; students and faculty work together nine hours each day\, seven days a week.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Seminars | Cosmology of a Fine-Tuned SUSY Higgs
DESCRIPTION:I will discuss some work in progress that explores whether a mildly fine-tuned Higgs boson\, as in (mini-)split supersymmetry\, can have interesting or observable cosmological consequences. As moduli fields oscillate\, the Higgs can respond and temporarily acquire very large values along a D-flat direction. Possible consequences include a burst of gravitational wave production and an altered estimate of the number of e-folds of inflation.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Science communication\; gnitteg ti thgir
DESCRIPTION:We are seeing vast changes in academic and teaching platforms as more information moves from in-person classrooms and paper journals to the Internet.  We are also seeing a changing demographic of students both nationally and internationally.  As science communicators we need to adjust to the drastically different landscape as online education broadens\, becomes more dynamic and pressures lecturers and other couriers of science to innovate or become obsolete. There are some simple approaches to widen the reach of your science and presentations to attract and hold people's attention and interest.  Martin Pepper's talk will illustrate how technology and social media is transforming communication and will convey the basics of addictive science communication and how it applies to spreading information in all formats.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:ISP Lecture. Eating the Audience’s Brain: Persianate Sociability in 18th-Century Delhi’s Poetry Salons
DESCRIPTION:The grave of 18th-century Persian-language poet ʿAbd al-Qadir Bedil (d. 1720) hosted a posthumous literary salon from 1721 to roughly 1760. In anecdotes and verse\, poets’ memories of the posthumous salon and its verse reveal how non-elite social actors shaped the Persianate literary sphere of Mughal India. Early modern literary spheres and shrine spaces have remained elusive subjects for social historians of South Asia\, greater Iran\, and Central Asia. My analysis of this shrine-based salon\, as memorialized in period diaries\, focuses on how localized/trans-regional textual processes mirrored the material settings in which they were deployed. New approaches to understanding available historical material\, such as those focusing on literary modes of representation\, are needed to document late-Mughal cultural history. From this position\, we see how the socio-literary space of the shrine compels a vernacular appraisal of social institutions and linguistic spheres in which literary practices are viewed as ambiguous modes of pre-colonial sociability motivated by multilingual social actors.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Journal Club
DESCRIPTION:The paper by McShane et al\, \"Abandon Statistical Significance\,\" was selected for our last Journal Club meeting of this term.\n\nAbstract\n\nIn science publishing and many areas of research\, the status quo is a lexicographic decision rule in which any result is first required to have a p-value that surpasses the 0.05 threshold and only then is consideration—often scant—given to such factors as prior and related evidence\, plausibility of mechanism\, study design and data quality\, real world costs and benefits\, novelty of finding\, and other factors that vary by research domain. There have been recent proposals to change the p-value threshold\, but instead we recommend abandoning the null hypothesis significance testing paradigm entirely\, leaving p-values as just one of many pieces of information with no privileged role in scientific publication and decision making. We argue that this radical approach is both practical and sensible.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LECTURE: ANANYA ROY\, \"THE CITY IN THE AGE OF TRUMPISM: FROM SANCTUARY TO ABOLITION\"
DESCRIPTION:Ananya Roy is Professor of Urban Planning\, Social Welfare and Geography and inaugural Director of the Institute on Inequality and Democracy at UCLA Luskin. She holds The Meyer and Renee Luskin Chair in Inequality and Democracy. Previously she was on the faculty at the University of California\, Berkeley.\nAnanya’s research and scholarship has a determined focus on poverty and inequality and lies in four domains: how the urban poor in cities from Kolkata to Chicago face and fight eviction\, foreclosure\, and displacement\; how global financialization\, working in varied realms from microfinance to real-estate speculation\, creates new markets in debt and risk\; how the efforts to manage and govern the problem of poverty reveal the contradictions and limits of liberal democracy\; how new programs of welfare and human development are being demanded and made in the global South. Ananya is the author of several books including Poverty Capital: Microfinance and the Making of Development (Routledge\, 2010)\, which received the Paul Davidoff book award from ACSP.  Her most recent book is Encountering Poverty: Thinking and Acting in an Unequal World (UC Press\, 2016).  During the last year\, Ananya’s public scholarship has challenged white supremacy and white power.  From the short video\, 3 Truths About Trumpism\, to the organization of a nationwide day of Teach.Organize.Resist\, her work mobilizes the power of knowledge to “divest from whiteness.”

SUMMARY:Performance:Ragas in Autumn
DESCRIPTION:An evening of Hindustani Classical music where Mr. Abhik Mukherjee will be playing the sitar (an ancient Indian Classical stringed instrument) and Mr. Amit K. Chatterjee will be accompanying him on the tabla (Indian percussion). \n\nHindustani (Indian) classical music is developed through two interwoven elements: raga and tala. Raga is the melodic element and is crafted by improvisation on fixed patterns of ascent and descent. Conversely\, tala is the rhythmic structure on which the melody is laid. \n\nHindu philosophy provides a spiritual parallel through which the listener can experience the melding of raga-tala. Shiva\, god of time\, represents the stable rhythm of the tala\, while Shakti\, the goddess of creation\, is the melodic dance over the rhythm. Through the play of Shiva and Shakti the universe is born and reborn across cosmic time.

SUMMARY:Performance:Ragas in Autumn
DESCRIPTION:An evening of Hindustani Classical music where Mr. Abhik Mukherjee will be playing the sitar (an ancient Indian Classical stringed instrument) and Mr. Amit K. Chatterjee will be accompanying him on the tabla (Indian percussion).Hindustani (Indian) classical music is developed through two interwoven elements: raga and tala. Raga is the melodic element and is crafted by improvisation on fixed patterns of ascent and descent. Conversely\, tala is the rhythmic structure on which the melody is laid. Hindu philosophy provides a spiritual parallel through which the listener can experience the melding of raga-tala. Shiva\, god of time\, represents the stable rhythm of the tala\, while Shakti\, the goddess of creation\, is the melodic dance over the rhythm. Through the play of Shiva and Shakti the universe is born and reborn across cosmic time. The blend of raga-tala represents this play.Hindustani classical music also draws inspiration from the hours of the day. Every day is divided into eight sections (ashta prahar)\, with each three-hour section having certain ragas best suited to its mood. In this concert evening ragas will be performed that\, through the versatile structure of raga-tala\, will encourage the audience to experience the range of emotions associated with this time of the day.Abhik Mukherjee is a Kolkata-born sitar player of the Etawah-Imdadkhani gharana. Some of his memorable concerts include performances for the inauguration of the Dr. Martin Luther King\, Jr. memorial (Washington D.C.)\; at the Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York City)\; at the Indian Habitat Center (Delhi)\; on Doordarshan (Kolkata)\; and a summer tour of Italy\, Germany\, and Switzerland.

SUMMARY:Performance:MUSKET presents: Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson
DESCRIPTION:BLOODY BLOODY ANDREW JACKSON explores the life of America's controversial seventh president from his early days as a child to his reign in the White House. With the country severely divided along political and financial lines\, Jackson climbs from populist rabble-rouser to President of the United States. Along the way\, he meets his wife\, Rachel\, takes on the Founding Fathers – and rocks like no political figure has ever rocked before\, with the help of an onstage trio and an entourage of singing\, joking cohorts. Dubbed by many historians as “the American Hitler\,” Andrew Jackson and his story cause us to question what causes the rise of such a president — and who is responsible for creating the legacy that he leaves behind.
