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.

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: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:Matisse Drawings: Curated by Ellsworth Kelly from The Pierre and Tana Matisse Foundation Collection
DESCRIPTION:\"Matisse Drawings: Curated by Ellsworth Kelly from The Pierre and Tana Matisse Foundation Collection\" showcases the master draftsmanship of two of the most significant artists of the twentieth century: Henri Matisse (1869–1954) and Ellsworth Kelly (1923–2015). Curated by Kelly in 2014\, the exhibition speaks to his admiration for Matisse\, as well as to the centrality of drawing in both artists’ practices. To accompany the forty-five rarely exhibited works by Matisse made in the first half of the 20th century\, which reveal his process and range of creativity as a draftsman\, Kelly selected nine of his own lithographic drawings that derive from his time in France during the 1960s\, when the American artist studied Matisse’s sketches and studies of nature and human figures. Together\, the works by Matisse and Kelly form a thought-provoking\, visually striking artistic dialogue\, allowing viewers to experience one artist through the eyes of another and to immerse themselves in the pleasures of close looking.\n                                                                                                                                                                        \n\"Matisse Drawings: Curated by Ellsworth Kelly from The Pierre and Tana Matisse Foundation Collection\" is organized by the American Federation of Arts and the Mount Holyoke College Art Museum in collaboration with The Pierre and Tana Matisse Foundation.\n\nThis exhibition was made possible by the generous support of the Eugene V. and Clare E. Thaw Charitable Trust and The Pierre and Tana Matisse Foundation. Additional support provided by the JFM Foundation and Mrs. Donald M. Cox.\n\nLead support for the local presentation of this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, and the University of Michigan Ross School of Business and the Department of the History of Art.

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:LRCCS Tuesday Lecture Series | Moralizing the Revolution: Morality\, Mobilization\, and Violence in the Early Maoist Period
DESCRIPTION:How do political actors mobilize support for and participation in violent movements and causes? Traditional collective action approaches have largely downplayed or ignored the significant moral-emotional barriers to participation\, particularly in the context of high-risk\, violent movements. Dr. Javed argues that political actors can eliminate these barriers to participation in violence by leveraging popular morality to: 1) delineate new social boundaries within communities that separate the \"virtuous\" public from a \"morally degenerate\" minority\; and 2) provoke popular outrage against members of this targeted group through the theatrical display of their alleged moral transgressions--violations of shared norms of right and wrong behavior. He will demonstrate this process of moral mobilization using the case of the Chinese Communist Party's mass mobilization of violence against so-called \"landlords\" and \"counterrevolutionaries\" during the first several years of the Maoist period (1949-1953). \n    \nJeffrey Javed is currently a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies at the University of Michigan. His research focuses on the intersection of social mobilization and political violence\, with a secondary focus on moral governance and memory politics. His current book project explores the process by which the nascent Chinese state mobilized popular participation in state repression during the mass campaigns of the early 1950s. He received his Ph.D. in 2017 from the Department of Government at Harvard University\, and his B.A. in Sociology and East Asian Studies from Cornell University in 2009.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Ruffled feathers: trait inference beyond homophily
DESCRIPTION:Co-Sponsored by the Computational Social Science (CSS) Initiative through the Center for the Study of Complex Systems\nAbstract: \nThe observation that individuals tend to be friends with people who are similar to themselves\, commonly known as homophily\, is a prominent and well-studied feature of social networks. In the presence of homophily\, attributes of one's friends are predictive of one's own attributes\, which is classically exploited by methods aimed at predicting missing attributes. While weak homophily might suggest that attribute prediction is difficult\, in this work we find a common pattern of extreme preferences for attributes that introduce friend-of-friend or two-hop correlations\, where individuals are similar to their friends-of-friends without necessarily being similar to their friends. We call this property monophily for ``love of one.'' We contribute a joint characterization of the statistical structure of homophily and monophily in terms of preference bias and preference variance and demonstrate how homophily-based prediction methods based on friends\, ``the company you keep\,'' are fundamentally different from monophily-based methods based on friends-of-friends\, ``the company you're kept in.'' As part of this work we contribute a new stylized model of social network structure that we call the overdispersed stochastic block model\, where the intensity of homophily and monophily can be independently modified to simulate networks with realistic preference bias and variance. To illustrate the differences between homophily and monophily-based prediction\, we place particular focus on gender prediction on social networks\, where homophily can be weak or nonexistent in practice. Yet we also demonstrate that in settings where homophily is present\, such as the link structure of political blogs\, monophily is also present and can power methods that outperform homophily-only methods for prediction. These findings offer an alternative perspective on attribute prediction in general and gender in particular\, complicating the already difficult task of protecting attribute privacy on social networks.\n\nBio:\nJohan Ugander is an Assistant Professor at Stanford University in the Department of Management Science & Engineering\, within the School of Engineering. His research develops algorithmic and statistical frameworks for analyzing social networks\, social systems\, and other large-scale social data. Prior to joining the Stanford faculty he was a post-doctoral researcher at Microsoft Research Redmond 2014-2015 and held an affiliation with the Facebook Data Science team 2010-2014. He obtained his Ph.D. in Applied Mathematics from Cornell University in 2014.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Edward Maginn: Using Molecular Modeling to Design New Fluids for Energy Storage and Carbon Capture
DESCRIPTION:Liquids that contain charged species\, such as electrolytes and ionic liquids\, have many important technological applications in fields such as energy storage\, separations\, and catalysis. By changing the structure of the molecules or employing mixtures\, the properties of these fluids can be altered significantly. The key questions are: How should I change the structure of the molecule or ion to get the properties I want? What type of additives should I use to improve performance? To answer these and related questions\, we use atomistic-level simulations to compute structural\, thermodynamic and transport properties of these systems. We are able to provide molecular-level explanations for experimental observations\, and we can predict properties of systems that may not yet have even been made in the laboratory.\n\nIn the first part of this talk\, I will describe molecular modeling research directed at improving the performance of electrolytes used in next generation “beyond lithium” batteries. Electrolytes are a critical component of batteries\, since they transport ions from the cathode to the anode during charging\, then in the reverse direction in releasing energy on discharge. Electrolytes play a leading role in a battery’s capacity for energy storage\, its lifetime and the safety of the battery. The electrolyte in a conventional lithium-ion battery consists of a lithium salt dissolved in an organic solvent. The electrolytes for next generation “beyond lithium” batteries will require new salt-solvent combinations.  Our simulations probe the way in which different electrolyte formulations\, charge carriers and additives impact the structure and dynamics of these liquids.\n\nIn the second half of the talk\, I will show how these same kinds of simulations can be used to develop new ionic liquids that can be used for CO2 separations / capture. Ionic liquids are pure salts that are liquid at ambient temperatures. Because they have essentially no vapor pressure and readily dissolve CO2\, people have been interested in using them for carbon capture. I will describe how our simulations have been successful in identifying new ionic liquids with properties tuned for use as conventional liquid absorbents or as supported ionic liquid membranes.\n\nBio: Edward Maginn received his BS in chemical engineering from Iowa State University and his PhD in chemical engineering from the University of California\, Berkeley.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AE Defense: Characterization of a 100-kW Class Nested-Channel Hall Thruster
DESCRIPTION:Aerospace Engineering PhD Candidate: Scott Hall\, Dissertation Co-Chairs: Dean Alec Gallimore and Benjamin Jorns\n\nThe next generation of electric propulsion consists of systems in excess of 300 kW of power. These systems enable a wide variety of missions\, including crewed missions to near-Earth asteroids and Mars. Hall thrusters are a particularly attractive technology for these missions\, but development and demonstration of 100-kW class devices has been limited to date. Here\, a 100-kW class three-channel nested Hall thruster called the X3 was operated up to 102 kW total discharge power at NASA Glenn Research Center. The thruster demonstrated stable operation in all seven channel combinations at discharge voltages from 300 V to 500 V and three different current densities. All seven channel combinations demonstrated similar performance at a given discharge voltage and current density. The largest thrust recorded was 5.4 N\, and total efficiency and specific impulse ranged from 0.54 to 0.67 and 1800 seconds to 2650 seconds\, respectively. In addition to the performance measurements\, a suite of plasma diagnostics and a high-speed camera were used to study the operation of the thruster in greater detail. This work represents the highest total power (102 kW)\, thrust (5.4 N)\, and discharge current (247 A) demonstrated by a Hall thruster to date\, improvements of 6%\, 64%\, and 119% respectively over previous values.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Special Cosmology Seminar | Quantum Theory and Cosmology  away from the Planck Regime
DESCRIPTION:We  will review the so  called  “measurement problem” in quantum theory and  argue that it becomes  exacerbated in  the cosmological context\, and see  how this connects   with some   problematic aspects of the standard accounts for the  inflationary origin of  cosmic structure.\nWe will argue that new physics\, possibly tied to novel aspects of quantum gravity\, should  be invoked if we want to  fully justify the phenomenological success of the  basic  inflationary scheme.  The general  view  is one  that has  been strongly  advocated by R. Penrose  and  we will discuss\nhow  that  can possibly  be   accommodated within our   current understanding   of the  interface of quantum theory and gravitation.\nWe  will then  see\,  in particular that\,   such view  leads   to  a  modified outlook to  that presented  by the standard  treatments\, regarding the   famous  and  yet undetected primordial   tensor modes.\nWe   will end  with   a proposal\,   motivated  by the preceding discussion\,  of  a novel  approach to dealing with the   so called  “dark  energy”  puzzle.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:DAAS African Diasporic Film Festival. Orkiteng Loorbaak: Rite of Elders
DESCRIPTION:Directed by Ron Mulvihill and Kelly Askew\nProduced by Kelly Askew \nEdited by Ian Klipa\nLanguages: Maa\, Swahili\nSubtitles: English\nDate: 2017\n\nIn Maasai culture of East Africa\, roles and responsibilities are assigned according to age and gender. While the transition to warriorhood has been heavily documented\, other aspects of the life cycle remain largely unexplored. Orkiteng Loorbaak: Rite of Elders follows Frank ole Kaipai\, chairman of Lesoit village\, Tanzania\, as he undergoes the rite of passage to become an elder. While his household prepares for the ceremony—cooking\, re-plastering the homes\, completing jewelry for adornment\, and making ready for the arrival of guests—Frank reunites with his age-set mates. He selects one to be his blood brother (ng’udiai) for the ritual and for the rest of their lives. A highlight of the ceremony is their vows to protect each other and their community\, performed over a ritual branch. All night long people dance\, sing\, with men reveling in tales of their time as warriors. At dawn\, a white bull is sacrificed to cleanse Frank of the sins of his youth. Women are critical to the ceremony\, and Frank’s mother is honored for bringing him into the world. The ritual confirms Frank’s status as an elder and allows him to shepherd his children through their coming rites of passage to adulthood.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MEMS Lecture Series. Eating Italy: A History of Italian Food and Italian Identity
DESCRIPTION:Pizza\, pasta\, and tiramisù are today some of the most obvious symbols of Italian culture. Why is this? What has connected food and Italianness so intimately? In this lecture the leading historian of European food explores how the construction of an Italian nation and the confection of an Italian cuisine became entangled. He demonstrates that over the past thousand years\, for several and contingent reasons\, the inhabitants of the Italian peninsula have politicized their eating habits.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Writer to Writer with Special Guest Dr. Howard Markel
DESCRIPTION:Sweetland Center for Writing's Writer to Writer series lets you hear directly from University of Michigan professors about their challenges\, processes\, and expectations as writers and also as readers of student writing. 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 Dr. Howard Markel. Acclaimed medical historian\, Dr. Howard Markel is the George E. Wantz Distinguished Professor of the History of Medicine and Director of the Center for the History of Medicine at the University of Michigan. He is a professor of pediatrics\, psychiatry\, public health management and policy\, history\, and English literature and language. His work reaches a wide range of audiences and has had a broad impact on national and international health policy and on the public’s understanding of medicine. \n \nDr. Markel serves as editor-in-chief of the health policy journal The Milbank Quarterly and is a frequent contributor to the New York Times\, PBS NewsHour.org\, and national radio and television shows. From 2006 to 2015\, he served as the principal historical consultant on pandemic preparedness for the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. His historical epidemiological work has influenced strategies employed by the WHO\, the CDC\, and the Mexican Ministry of Health. \n \nDr. Markel is the author\, co-author\, or co-editor of ten books\, including the award-winning Quarantine! and the national bestseller An Anatomy of Addiction. He has written over 450 articles and book chapters for scholarly and popular publications. He was a regular contributor on NPR’s Science Friday and has appeared in several acclaimed film documentaries\, including\, most recently\, Cancer: The Emperor of All Maladies on PBS. \n \nDr. Markel has delivered lectures across the United States and in Europe and has spoken at U.S. government agencies\, departments and the White House. His work has been recognized with numerous grants\, honors and awards. In 2008 he was elected as a member of the National Academy of Medicine. In 2015 was awarded a John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation fellowship. \n \nA native of Detroit\, he earned his bachelor’s (1982) and medical degrees (1986) at the University of Michigan. He completed his pediatrics residency and fellowship and Ph.D. in the history of medicine\, science and technology at the Johns Hopkins Hospital and Medical School. In Fall\, 2018\, Pantheon/Random House will publish his new book\, Corn Flakes\, about Dr. John Harvey Kellogg\, who invented the concept of “wellness\,” and his brother\, cereal magnate Will Kellogg.\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.
