Since the invention of the light bulb\, we have obtained less sleep than our ancestors\, prioritizing work\, school\, socializing\, sports\, screen time – just about everything – over sleep. Sleep is viewed as compressible\, something that can be made up at any time\, but rarely is. Most believe this poses little risk. Unfortunately\, they could not be more wrong.\n\nThe truth is\, an adequate amount of good-quality sleep is critical to good health. Lack of sleep leads to deadly crashes\, reduces productivity\, and harms quality of life. Insufficient or disordered sleep can increase risk for ADHD\, depression\, heart attack\, stroke\, arrhythmia\, heart failure\, and early death.\n\nThis Teach-Out can be your first step in doing something about sleep deprivation. Learn how sleep works\, why it is important\, and what bad sleep habits are. Hear solutions you can start tonight to sleep better for the rest of your life. Understand strategies to help family and friends improve their sleep. Learn to advocate for the sleep health of your community. This Teach-Out is intended to connect learners worldwide to the University of Michigan in conversation around sleep deprivation.\n\nA Teach-Out is:\n\n-an event – it takes place over a fixed\, short period of time\n\n-an opportunity – it is open for free participation to everyone around the world\n\n-a community – it will be joined by a large number of diverse individuals\n\n-a conversation – an opportunity to give and take ideas and information from people\n\nThe University of Michigan Teach-Out Series provides just-in-time community learning events for participants around the world to come together in conversation with the U-M campus community\, including faculty experts.

Yet public trust in journalism has hit historic lows in recent years and journalists have recently been openly maligned for their work. This Teach-Out prompts participants to think critically about the roles and responsibilities of journalists in a free society. Why is the concept of a free press written into the First Amendment? How are the rights of journalists threatened? Is this a unique moment in history? How have new modes of reporting\, such as social media and citizen journalism\, made the press more vulnerable? And\, finally\, what are the broader societal implications of a restricted and diminished press?\n\nThis Teach-Out is part of the University of Michigan 2018 Speech and Inclusion Series that aims to recognize differing views on speech and inclusion\, to explore how those views play out in politics\, culture\, higher education\, sports\, and journalism\, and to engage in productive conversations to promote a positive campus environment and help the community more deeply understand these complicated issues.\n\nA Teach-Out is:\n\n-an event – it takes place over a fixed\, short period of time\n\n-an opportunity – it is open for free participation to everyone around the world\n\n-a community – it will be joined by a large number of diverse individuals\n\n-a conversation – an opportunity to give and take ideas and information from people\n\nThe University of Michigan Teach-Out Series provides just-in-time community learning events for participants around the world to come together in conversation with the U-M campus community\, including faculty experts.

The project\, led by the Institute for the Humanities\, symbolizes the humanities in action\, and the empowerment that can be achieved through working together\, overcoming obstacles and divides\, and discovering creative solutions.\n\nMacmurtrie is an award winning artist\, renowned internationally for his large-scale robotic sculpture\, whose work combines materiality and robotics\, the visceral and conceptual. His artist residency and interdisciplinary project \"Border Crossers\" encourages investigation of borders as constructed entities\, both embodying a simple curiosity to see what lies on the other side of a border (national\, architectural\, environmental\, etc.) and expression of a utopian desire to live in a world without borders.\n\nIn February\, MacMurtrie and the students will launch the robotic sculpture during two \"performances\" and MacMurtrie will give a special Penny W. Stamps Lecture. The gallery exhibition will include large-scale drawings which serve as plans and maps for MacMurtrie's visionary Border Crossers. Life-size robotic models will also be presented in the exhibition in conversation with the drawings. The models\, built by the all-student team with MacMurtrie's guidance\, are prototypes for the project\, offering preliminary steps in the workshop and the process towards realizing the large scale robotic sculpture.\n\nChico MacMurtrie is the Artistic Director of Amorphic Robot Works\, an interdisciplinary creative collective located in Brooklyn\, NY. MacMurtrie/ARW have received numerous awards for their experimental new media artworks\, including five grants from the National Endowment for the Arts\, the Andy Warhol Foundation Grant\, the Rockefeller Foundation Fellowship\, VIDA Life 11.0\, and Prix Ars Electronica. Chico MacMurtrie was awarded the Guggenheim Fellowship in Fine Arts in 2016.\n\nVisiting artist Chico MacMurtrie's residency and project is sponsored by the U-M Institute for the Humanities in collaboration with U-M Museum of Art\, Michigan Robotics\, Michigan Engineering\, School of Information\, Penny Stamps Speaker Series\, Stamps School of Art and Design\, and ArtsEngin.

The twenty-four experimental drawings commissioned for this exhibition explore the impact of such technologies on the relationship between code and drawing: how rules and constraints inform the ways architects document\, analyze\, represent\, and design the built environment.\n\nEach drawing engages with at least one of the below prompts that begin to expand the notion of code as it relates to architectural design and representation:\n\nCode as generative constraint. Restrictive codes often govern what is permitted and what is prohibited. Examples of this include building codes\, urban codes\, zoning codes\, accessibility codes\, and energy codes. How can such constraints become generative\, opening up opportunities for design and representation?\nCode as language. A code can be understood as a set of rules\, conventions\, and traditions of syntax and grammar that structure the communication of information. The discipline of architecture similarly has its own language of typologies\, taxonomies\, and classifications. How can drawing engage with such architectural languages?\nCode as cipher. Encoded or encrypted messages are intended to hide or conceal information. Likewise\, architectural geometries\, forms\, spaces\, and assemblies are embedded with invisible organizational\, social\, political\, or economic logics that may not be immediately evident. How can drawing engage with these latent meanings and messages?\nCode as script. A code can be understood as a script or a recipe: a set of instructions to be executed or performed by a computer\, a robot\, or (in the case of theater or film)\, an actor. Scripts often produce unexpected discrepancies between the intent of the code and how it is executed. How can drawing explore these open-ended processes that may not have a defined outcome?\nThe invited architects were asked to conform to a set of strict rules: consistent dimension\, black & white medium\, and limiting the drawing to orthographic projection. The intent is for this consistency to emphasize the wide range of approaches to questions of technology\, design\, and representation. Yet within this considerable diversity of medium\, aesthetic sensibility\, and content\, several common qualities emerge. First is the unsure link between code and outcome: glitches\, bugs\, accidents\, anomalies\, but also loopholes\, deviations\, variances\, and departures that open up new potentials for architectural design and representation. Second is a mature embrace of technology not as a fetishized end game\, but as an instrument employed synthetically in concert with other architectural “tools of the trade.” And finally\, these drawings demonstrate how conventions of architectural representation remain fertile territory for invention and speculation.\n\nAt the show's initial run at CCA in San Francisco\, an adjacent gallery featured work by CCA Architecture students in Kinematic Code\, a course taught by Clayton Muhleman that has been exploring procedural and robotic drawing techniques.\n\nPanel discussion Tuesday\, March 6 at 6:00pm in the Art & Architecture Auditorium\, followed by opening reception in the College Gallery. Exhibition on view March 7 - March 28.

The self-taught artist sees himself as a documentarian of lives easily ignored in a world obsessed with materialism and celebrity. His work frequently highlights not only the strength found in conquering the everyday and mundane\, but also the pain and defeat of those not able to rise to the occasion. His love of film noir and pulp fiction novels from the 1940s and '50s has led him to experiment with minimalist animation and comic book illustration. He embraces the whimsy hidden in the darkness.\n\nCarl is the recipient of a 2013 Kresge Artist Fellowship and is an alumni of the historic Yaddo Artists’ Community. During his residency there he carved the prints for\, and wrote the book\, Her Purse Smelled like Juicyfruit\, a recollection of his mother’s life. Carl was named 2014 guest curator of Detroit’s Carr Center. Also in 2014 Complex Online Magazine named him one of Twenty Detroit Artists You Should Know. He was featured in Essay'd\, a monthly publication about Detroit artists. 2017 sees the release of a comic book\, the first installment of his graphic novel\, Dead and Lost in Detroit.

A pioneering female gallerist\, Kasle provided midwest audiences with a venue in which to experience avant-garde art from centers like New York City\, while also supporting and exhibiting regional artists. Featuring a collection of paintings\, works on paper\, and sculptures from the height of the Abstract Expressionist movement through the early twenty-first century\, 'Exercising the Eye' speaks to the relationships Kasle fostered with local\, national\, and international artists and her appreciation for artistic expression and experimentation. Critical voices from the last fifty years include Philip Guston\, Jane Hammond\, Grace Hartigan\, Jasper Johns\, Michele Oka Doner\, and Robert Rauschenberg. The exhibition offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore a dynamic moment in Detroit’s cultural history and insight into Kasle’s love of looking and learning.\n\nLead support for 'Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

Rand considered the designer’s task to be the symbolic communication of a company’s character. This recent acquisition presentation features the poster Rand created as part of IBM’s THINK promotional campaign. The design is a rebus\, or visual puzzle\, wherein Rand cleverly transforms the letters of IBM’s logo into pictures. The whimsical use of symbols encourages viewers to interpret—or think—in order to comprehend the company’s intended message that it values “insight\,” “industriousness\,” and “motivation.” The poster is part of a larger recent gift of archival Paul Rand objects donated to UMMA by Franc Nunoo-Quarcoo—professor in the U-M Stamps School of Art and Design and published scholar on Paul Rand—and Maria Phillips.\n\nThis work was recently gifted to UMMA by Maria Phillips and Franc Nunoo-Quarcoo.

On view at UMMA\, \"The Comforter\" presents the likeness of a young girl whose appearance suggests a rare genetic condition causing excessive hair across her face and body. In her lap she tenderly cradles an udder-shaped\, eyeless creature—a possible reference to current experiments in genetically altered milk-producing animals. The encounter staged by the sculpture\, though curious and unexplained\, appears to be one of innocence and intimacy\, and suggests the potential for emotional connection between a diversity of beings. This theme is a common one for Piccinini\, whose work incorporates (often obliquely) ideas and questions about the ethical implications of scientific progress and the conflicts in our culture between the natural and the man-made.\n\nLead support for \"Patricia Piccinini: The Comforter\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the Herbert W. and Susan L.

When light is directed at these assemblages\, they project shadows that are exceptionally accurate and intricate representations of other things entirely.\n\n\"The Masterpiece\" (2014) is a shadow self-portrait of the artists created from metal casts of dead vermin they collected and welded together into a ball. From afar the casts appear to be a stunning abstract silver sculpture\; on closer inspection the disturbing menagerie of creatures emerges\, only to change form again—as a shadow on the wall—into a precise and elegant image that is astonishingly different from the objects that create it.\n\nLead support for \"Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece\" is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities. Additional generous support is provided by the Richard and Janet Miller Fund.

Civilian ownership of guns not only contributed to persistent social violence\, but also transformed power structurers in local society and accelerated local militarization\, changing the balance of power between state and society. The decision that each political entity made about how to deal with armed civilians had profound effects in the national political arena. \n \nLei Duan is currently a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Liebethal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies at the University of Michigan. His main research interest is social violence and state power in China. His current book project focuses on private gun ownership and its sociocultural and political implications in modern China from 1860 to 1949. He received his PhD in 2017 from the Department of History at Syracuse University\, obtained an MA in History from the University of Massachusetts\, Amherst in 2011\, and his BA from Nankai University in 2008.

I investigate this question by examining patterns of campaign contributions among foreign firms. While statutorily forbidden from directly giving campaign money\, foreign multinationals may be able to influence American politics through their US subsidiaries. Consistent with this\, I show that the US subsidiaries of foreign multinationals are more likely to give campaign contributions\, give contributions that are vastly larger\, and locate significantly closer to Capitol Hill than domestic firms\, controlling for industry sector and firm size. While contributing 5% to US GDP\, majority foreign-owned firms account for more than 11% of all corporate campaign contributions. I argue that this greater political intensity is driven primarily by the desire of subsidiaries to represent the political interests of their foreign parent corporations\, and rule out alternative explanations like a `foreignness premium' and political inexperience. I conclude that foreign multinationals are a significant political actor in the US\, and that foreign direct investment in the US partly serves as an investment in political influence.

Thurnau Professor of Women’s Studies\, Political Science\, Sociology\, and Health Management and Policy \nLisa Disch\, Professor of Political Science and Women’s Studies\n\nIn this research talk\, Professor Michael Heaney will discuss findings from his surveys of participants at the 2017 Women’s March in DC\, and the Women’s Convention in Detroit in October 2017.\n\nAfter the candidacy and election of Donald J. Trump as President\, there have been renewed efforts to organize women in the United States under a single\, unified umbrella. The most visible effort is the Women’s March\, which organized a massive march in Washington\, DC and around the world on the day following Trump’s inauguration. The Women’s March also organized a convention\, held in Detroit in October 2017.\n\nThis study examines these organizing efforts to assess the extent to which this nascent women’s movement is mending divisions among women and the extent to which divisions still represent challenges to the movement.\n\nPanelists Anna Kirkland and Lisa Disch will offer commentary. A Q&A with the audience will follow the discussion.

Rights in Peril in the Philippines: How Rights Are Wronged and How We Fight Back DESCRIPTION:The Philippines is the oldest democracy in Asia. Once priding itself as the bastion of progressive thought on human rights\, the country transitioned from decades of authoritarianism to democracy through an exemplary bloodless revolution. Recently\, however\, the country has faced deep challenges to the protection and promotion of human rights including mass killings in a drug war and attempts to stifle and silence watchdog institutions. In this public lecture\, Chito Gascon will draw on his decades of work as a political activist and social reformer\, and share his reflections on the social and political challenges to human rights and democracy in the Philippines. \n \nJose Luis Martin “Chito” Gascon was appointed in 2015 by President Benigno S. Aquino III as Chair of the Human Rights Commission of the Philippines\, and his term will last until 2022. He has been active in public and government service for more than 30 years\, at one time holding positions at the Department of Education and Office of the President. His continuing reform advocacies are in the areas of human rights\, access to justice and the rule of law\, transparency and accountability initiatives\, political and electoral reforms\, peace and conflict transformation\, people’s participation and civic education\, and state building in the context of democratic transitions. He holds bachelor’s degrees in philosophy and law from the University of the Philippines\, and a master of law (LLM) degree specializing in International Law (Human Rights\, Law of Peace\, and Settlement of International Disputes) from Cambridge University as a member of St. Edmund's College through a joint British Chevening and Cambridge Overseas Trust Scholarship.

Seed funding is competitively awarded annually for up to five projects. Faculty collaborate with students to produce projects that ultimately lead to a public exhibition in the Liberty Annex Gallery. Through the years as the projects have evolved\, the research has broadened and many have gone on to win national awards (P/A Awards\, R+D Awards\, ACSA Awards\, AIA awards\, etc.) and be published\, presented and exhibited through out the world. Research Through Making is one of the most innovative architecture research programs in the country\, and provides important funding that allows students to work with faculty on innovative research projects and bring that knowledge back to the classroom and into their futures as designers.\n\nPresentations and opening March 13.

Incorporating two new styles of U.S. urban popular dance--New York-based b-boying/b-girling or \"breaking\" and California-based popping and locking-- piliwu was China's first localized movement of hip-hop culture\, which reflected new circuits of intercultural exchange between China and the United States during the first decade of China's Reform Era. Analyzing the dance choreography recorded in a 1988 Chinese film\, Rock Youth 摇滚青年 (dir. Tian Zhangzhuang)\, together with media reports and testimonials from members of China's piliwu generation\, this talk reconstructs the history of the piliwu movement\, arguing for the central influence of U.S. pop culture icon Michael Jackson\, the growth of China's underground commercial dance (zou xue 走穴) economy\, and the agency of dancers' bodies in transnational movements of media culture. \n\nThe Center for World Performance Studies Faculty Lecture Series features our Faculty Fellows and visiting scholars and practitioners in the fields of ethnography and performance. Designed to create an informal and intimate setting for intellectual exchange among students\, scholars\, and the community\, faculty are invited to present their work in an interactive and performative fashion.\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to participate in this event\, please contact Center for World Performance Studies\, at 734-936-2777\, at least one week in advance of this event.

For the past 70 years\, many Germans have been engaged in what they call Vergangenheitsaufarbeitung - working-off the past. Though the process has been slow\, fitful\, and often problematic\, Americans can learn from the ways in which Germany has - partially - confronted its racist past\, as we begin to examine our own.
