SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Beauty Meets My Mess: Mixed Media Collage
DESCRIPTION:Re Kielar was born in Chicago’s little Italy neighborhood with her grandparents upstairs and aunt and uncle across the courtyard. Her world was very Italian\, and when she walked outside\, she felt like she was leaving one country and entering another. Ever since she was a child\, she has loved paint and texture and seen beauty in the most unlikely places. Her artwork expresses human emotion through drawing in ink with rough papers\, old book pages\, metal embellishments and natural objects. Each abstract collage is coupled with her poetry\, so each piece is a walk into her soul. She hopes that by sharing that which is broken\, we can find healing spaces that knit our hearts together.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Timeless Instants: Still Life Photographs
DESCRIPTION:Originally from Kansas City\, Tina West discovered photography while studying sculpture. She sees her photographs more as paintings\, and her still lifes have powerful cast shadows and frequent light play. Influenced by Gerhardt Richter and surrealism\, West’s images communicate a sense of being\, connecting not only the objects in the photographs\, but also the viewer and the photograph. She draws inspiration from the objects in her vast collection of unique treasures\, and she speaks to their unreserved timelessness with maturity and wonder. All of the images in this exhibit were created using instant film in a 4x5 view camera.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mr. Vignaud's Maps: Unraveling a Cartographic Mystery from the Golden Age of Dutch Cartography
DESCRIPTION:In 1922 the University of Michigan acquired the library of Henry Vignaud\, an American diplomat living in Paris\, whose extensive personal library included thousands of books\, atlases\, maps\, and other publications. Many of Vignaud's maps were extracted from broken atlases\, originally published by the illustrious Hondius and Janssonius publishing houses. Staff in the Clark Library sought to organize these fascinating maps based on their physical characteristics and similarities\, with the ultimate goal of reassembling the original atlases.\n\nThis exhibit and the accompanying online exhibit (https://www.lib.umich.edu/online-exhibits/exhibits/show/rediscoveringvignaud) feature the results of their remarkable findings\, as well as a glimpse into the history of the Golden Age of mapmaking in 17th century Amsterdam.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:9th annual Marshall M. Weinberg Symposium
DESCRIPTION:The 2018 Weinberg Symposium will explore recent dramatic advances in AI and their implications for our developing understanding and investigation of mind and brain. Of special interest are deep learning and reinforcement learning\, and the resurgence of explorations of computational architectures intended to support general intelligence. An aim of the symposium is to clarify and advance the reciprocal flow of theoretical ideas across AI and cognitive science\, broadly understood to include neuroscience and psychology. This includes identifying specific computational problems shared by both artificial and human brains\, and leading ideas for solutions to those problems\; identifying areas of both theoretical convergence and divergence\; rethinking core concepts in cognitive science such as planning\, motivation\, attention\, and abstraction\; and putting into sharp focus fundamental gaps in our present scientific understanding and engineering capacities that might be promising areas for new cross-disciplinary work.\n\nTo register\, please fill out the registration link: https://lsa.umich.edu/weinberginstitute/symposium/registration.html

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstract Ancestry: Machine-Works on Paper
DESCRIPTION:Detroit-based artist Matthew Angelo Harrison takes a satirical look at historical narratives—exploring issues of race\, design\, mortality and industry—by making use of analog and digital technologies. For his solo show\, \"Abstract Ancestry\,\" at University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities\, Harrison will produce a suite of mechanical drawings with his homemade 3D printer. Using books and documents containing problematic historical portrayals as the substrate for his drawings\, Harrison is able to explore issues of representation. The exhibition also examines abstraction\, setting the printers to work at a low resolution ensures that imperfections and variability come through in these machine-produced drawings.\n\nOn April 5\, join us as we celebrate the opening of our final exhibition of the academic year with our 2018 Efroymson Emerging Artist in Residence Matthew Angelo Harrison. Harrison will be in conversation with curator Amanda Krugliak.\n\nThis project is funded by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Dewey Lecture Series: “Detroit Collaborative Design Center: Amplifying the Diminished Voice of Detroit's Urban Landscape”
DESCRIPTION:The Ginsberg Dewey Lecture highlights the work of a scholar-activist whose research and civic engagement are intertwined and recognizes the enduring legacy of philosopher and educational reformer John Dewey\, who taught at U of M in the 1890’s\,  and later\, went on to found the New School for Social Research. Chief among Dewey’s enduring ideas were that thought is the means through which we come to understand and connect with the world around us\, and\, that universal education is the key to teaching people how to abandon their habits and think creatively via learning through doing.\n\nKeynote will be given by Charles Cross\, ASLA\, the Senior Landscape Designer at the Detroit Collaborative Design Center\; as well as an Adjunct Professor at the University of Detroit Mercy School of Architecture.  He maintains a firm belief that underserved communities deserve good design\, and therefore should be the patrons of the process -not just the consumers of the end product.\n\nThere will also be highlights from University of Michigan community engaged research projects.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Interior Streets
DESCRIPTION:Join us March 9\, 3pm\, for a reception and Carl Wilson in conversation with our curator Amanda Krugliak.\n\nThe \"Interior Streets\" exhibition features the work of Detroit artist Carl Wilson\, known for his stark black and white linocut prints. 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.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:CSAS Conference | 8th Annual Pakistan Conference: Movement\, Migration\, and Borders
DESCRIPTION:Complete conference details available here: https://ii.umich.edu/csas/news-events/events/conferences/8th-annual-pakistan-conference--movement--migration--and-borders.html\n\nThe contemporary realities of migration and movement have implicated Pakistan within a global network of transaction and belonging\, this due in part to the ever-growing mobility of Pakistanis.  Both within and across the borders of Pakistan\, the title of immigrant\, citizen\, and refugee has crafted new notions of identity and community.  Further\, the relationship between both the diaspora and Pakistan have shaped the conceptions of one another\, and ultimately Pakistan.   The narratives in circulation about “Pakistan in the world” garner security concerns and fears about radicalization and terrorism. This year’s U-M Pakistan Conference challenges this dominant theme by highlighting new and exciting developments in the field of Pakistani migrations. This multidisciplinary conference brings together academics\, activists\, journalists\, and artists from Pakistan\, Europe\, Bangladesh\, and the United States in a discussion of the global and mobile realities of Pakistan and its people\, and the histories and trajectories of Pakistani diasporas to Aboriginal Australia\, the Arabian Gulf\, Europe\, and North America.\n\nThis conference is made possible by generous support from the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\, with additional support from​​ the Departments of: American Culture\; Anthropology\; History\; History of Art\; Screen Arts and Cultures\; and Women's Studies\; the Islamic Studies Program\; Rackham Graduate School\; Residential College\; Arab and Muslim American Studies\; Asian/Pacific Islander American Studies\; Weiser Center for Emerging Democracies\; the Institute for the Humanities\; and the American Institute of Pakistan Studies. This conference is funded in part by a Title VI federal grant from the US Department of Education.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Sacred Scriptures in a Secular Society: Hand-copying Buddhist Texts in Japan
DESCRIPTION:In Japan\, the copying of Buddhist texts by hand is done by religious and non-religious people alike. This meditative activity cultivates inner focus and attention. But the vital practice of hand-tracing religious texts - whether with brush\, pen\, or electronic device - is little known outside Japan. \n\nThis symposium introduces shakyō\, the living tradition of copying Buddhist texts by hand. The two morning lectures will survey the uninterrupted production of shakyō from the 8th century through the 20th century. In the afternoon\, the focus will shift to how shakyō is practiced today in Japan\, including a hands-on opportunity for participants to copy a short Buddhist text themselves.\n\nALL EVENTS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC\nREGISTRATION REQUIRED: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdBowo9isHgBFPAJyCFDFw1VlU2xCYdlT3oj4NcvpTZVB8HuQ/viewform\n\n9:30   \nCoffee and Light Breakfast\n\n10:00 \nCopying Sutras in Premodern Asia: Technical\, Ritual\, and Human Dimensions\nBryan Lowe\, Assistant Professor of Religious Studies\, Religious Traditions of Japan and Korea\, Vanderbilt University \n\n11:30 \nCopying Buddhist Scriptures in Japan\, From the Nineteenth Century Through  the Twentieth\nMicah Auerback\,  Associate Professor of Japanese Religion\, University of Michigan \n\n12:45 \nLunch\n\n2:00 \nSutra-copying Today: Presentation and Hands-on Session\nDawn Lawson  Head\, Asia Library\, University of Michigan \n\n4:00 \nReception\nAsia Library Conference Room\, 4th Floor \nHatcher Graduate Library\, North

This conference will feature faculty\, graduate students\, digital humanities and rhetoric experts\, and other stakeholders in Digital Studies at the University of Michigan\, showcasing the wide variety of digital engagement on campus. It is open to practitioners\, researchers\, and all who work in a critical relation to the digital. Catered lunch and refreshments will be provided for all attendees.\n\nKeynote talk by Kathleen Fitzpatrick\, MSU\n“Generous Thinking: Working in Public.”\n\nWorking in public\, and with the public\, can enable scholars to build vital\, sustainable research communities\, both within their fields\, with other scholars in different fields\, and with folks off-campus who care about the kinds of work that we do. By finding ways to connect with readers and writers beyond our usual circles of experts\, in a range of different registers\, and in ways that move beyond enabling them to listen to us to instead allow for meaningful response\, we can create the possibilities for far more substantial public participation in and engagement with the humanities\, and with the academy more broadly. We can build programs and networks and platforms that do not just bring the university to the world\, but that also involve the world in the university.\n\nLightening Talks 1 Presenters (in order):\nMeg Bakewell\, CRLT\n   Moderator\n\nTiffany Ng\, Professor of Carillon\, School of Music\n   “Experiments in the Belfry”\n\nMerideth Garcia\, Joint Program in English and Education\n   “Networked Ethics: Negotiating Commitments to Overlapping Virtual and Visible Networks”\n\nCengiz Salman\, Department of American Culture\n   “Engineering a Global Network: The Imperial Drive of Facebook's Free Basics”\n\nJohn Cheney-Lippold\, Department of American Culture\n   “FIFA: Race\, It's in the Game”\n\nCasidy Campbell\, Department of American Culture\n   “Black Girl (Counter)narratives and the Violence of the Digital”\n\n\nLightening Talks 2 Presenters (in order): \nMonika Dressler\, LSA-ISS\n   Moderator\n\nAnne Cong-Huyen and Kush Patel\, University of Michigan Libraries\n   “Practising Digital Pedagogy Librarianship at U-M: Critical Feminist Engagements”\n\nSimone Sessolo\, Sweetland Center for Writing\n   “Discursive Selfies: Discourse in the Age of Instagram”\n\nAdrienne Raw\, Joint Program in English and Education\n   “A Platform Studies Approach to Understanding Fandom”\n\nJustin Joque\, University of Michigan Libraries\n   “Cyberwar and the Future of Deconstruction”\n\nKatherine Sender\, Department of Communication Studies\n   “The demise of the gay market in a digital media landscape”

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection
DESCRIPTION:Gallery hours are 11 a.m.–5 p.m. Tuesday–Saturday and 12–5 p.m. Sunday\; galleries are closed on Mondays.\n\nThis exhibition celebrates Gertrude Kasle (1917–2016)\, a key figure in the formation of Detroit’s contemporary art community in the 1960s and 70s. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Paul Rand
DESCRIPTION:Throughout the second half of the twentieth century\, pioneering art director and graphic designer Paul Rand (1914–1996) was celebrated for crafting the brand identities of such American corporate icons as ABC\, IBM\, UPS\, and Westinghouse. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Patricia Piccinini: The Comforter
DESCRIPTION:Australian artist Patricia Piccinini’s strange\, hyperreal yet sentimental sculptures are often rooted in her speculative visualizations of future species—beings transformed by\, or even created by\, developments in genetic engineering and technology.  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. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece
DESCRIPTION:Since the 1980s\, British artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster have been known for their shadow sculptures built from materials as diverse as scrap metal\, garbage\, taxidermy\, and sex toys. 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.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Seminar Series: Zhiliang Ying\, Professor of Statistics\, Columbia University
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nMeasurement theory has played a foundational role in educational and psychological assessment. Traditional methods are primarily based on latent variable models\, which could be confounded with dimension reduction and goodness of fit. Furthermore\, these methods are not applicable to modern complex data such as process data obtained from PSTRE (Problem solving in technology-rich environments) items. This talk will first introduce a new method for addressing the first issue\, i.e. sufficient dimension reduction with adequate goodness of fit. It is followed by a second new method for handling process data from PSTRE items. These new developments will be applied to data in educational assessment and psychological evaluation.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EIHS Workshop: Contextualizing Columbus: Mobility\, Place-Making\, Periodization\, and Islam
DESCRIPTION:Islam played an important role as a catalyst for Columbus’ voyage across the Atlantic. The cosmopolitan Islamicate world that informed his journey united vast networks of far-flung trade routes with major urban centers. This panel will examine the important connecting threads of mobility\, place-making\, and periodization that inform analysis of his journey in three contexts.  Travelling from premodern maritime trade routes to Mongol building projects\, and utilizing Islamic endowment deeds and polemics against the Qur’an\, this panel will explore the creative tensions of pre- and early modern place-making.\n\nPresentations include:\n\nThe Ocean Blue: Spice Routes\, Islam\, and Globalization Before Columbus (Amanda Respess\, Graduate Student\, Anthropology and History\, University of Michigan)\nThe event of Columbus’s voyage across the Atlantic represented a conjunction of short-term historical developments and long-term environmental and cultural patterns. This presentation will contextualize Columbus's attempt to reach the East by foregrounding the longue durée of premodern Indian Ocean maritime navigation\, turning special attention to the role of Islam in early globalization in the eastern Indian Ocean and South China Sea.\n\nGhazaniyya: A City Built for a Sacred King (Golriz Farshi\, Graduate Student\, Near Eastern Studies\, University of Michigan)\nThe conversion of the Ilkhanid Dynasty (1256-1353 C.E.) to Islam marked a transition in place-making practices and urban development by hitherto itinerant Mongols. The long-standing Islamicate tradition of mausoleum building supplanted the tradition of unmarked graves\, and helped structure a new style of governance.This presentation will reconstruct the endowed model city of Ghazaniyya which centered on the mausoleum of the Ilkhan Ghazan Khan.\n\nThe Mobilization of Manuscripts and Papal Place-Making During the Transition from Medieval to Early Modern Europe (Kate Waggoner Karchner\, Graduate Student\, History\, University of Michigan)\nThis presentation will broadly trace the transmission of a late thirteenth-century religious disputation of the Qur'an - Riccoldo da Montecroce's Against the Law of the Saracens - throughout early modern Europe\, highlighting its link to moments of heightened awareness of the Ottoman Empire's threat to the traditional bounds of Christendom. The papacy used the polemic against an external threat as a tool to reassert its own position and reaffirm the need for traditional power dynamics in the face of challenges to its sovereignty.  \n\nAlan Mikhail (Professor\, History\, Yale University) will comment on the papers. Kathryn Babayan (Associate Professor\; History\, Near Eastern Studies\, University of Michigan) will chair the panel.\n\nFree and open to the public. Lunch provided. \n\nThis event is part of the Friday Series of the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Labor Economics\, Economic Development Seminar: Scabs: The Social Suppression of Labor Supply
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nA long tradition of work in social science posits that social norms affect labor market behavior. We use a field experiment to test whether community-wide norms against accepting wage cuts distort workers’ labor supply during periods of unemployment. We undertake our test in informal spot markets for casual daily labor in India. We partner with 183 existing employers\, who offer jobs to 502 randomly-selected laborers in their respective local labor markets. The job offers vary: (i) the wage level and (ii) the extent to which the offer is observable to other workers. On average\, 26% of workers accept a job if it is offered at the prevailing wage\, with no distinguishable differences by observability. In contrast\, observability strongly mediates labor supply below the prevailing wage: while 18% accept work at a wage cut in private\, this plummets to 4% when wage cuts are offered in public. The consequences of this behavior are substantial: workers are giving up 38% of average weekly earnings in order to avoid being seen as breaking the community norm. In a supplementary exercise\, we document that workers are willing to pay to punish anonymous laborers who have accepted a wage cut. Costly punishment occurs both for workers in one’s own village\, and for workers in distant other labor markets—suggesting the internalization of norms in moral terms. Our findings support the presumption that collusive norms can develop even in the absence of formal labor institutions and can play a role in constraining labor supply behavior at economically meaningful magnitudes.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Seminars | Revisiting Goldstone's Theorem
DESCRIPTION:In recent times we have learned that if in QFT\, the constraint of locality and/or Lorentz invariance are lifted\, the patterns of symmetry breaking are far richer than in local relativistic field theories.  Recently we have studied some (conformal) field theories with global symmetries in the sector where the value of the global charge Q is large.  We find that the low energy excitations in this sector are described by a particular form of the non-relativistic Goldstone theorem.  We also provide heuristic arguments that the effective theory describing such sector contains an effective coupling constant suppressed by powers of the large charge.  The comparison of our heuristic arguments with \"exact\" results (lattice MonteCarlo) are remarkably good.

DESCRIPTION:It is 500 years since Martin Luther posted his 95 Theses in Wittenberg and the Reformation began. But without the artist Lucas Cranach\, who lived around the corner\, would Luther’s Reformation have been so successful? Images were central to the Reformation and the Cranach workshop produced an extraordinary series of portraits of Luther through each stage of his life. Finally\, the Reformation anniversary has inspired some powerful new images of the reformer: What does Luther look like now?

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Theory: Dispersed Behavior and Perceptions in Assortative Societies
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nMotivated by the fact that people’s perceptions of their societies are routinely incorrect\, we study the possibility and implications of misperception in social interactions. We focus on coordination games with assortative interactions\, where agents with higher types (e.g.\, wealth\, political attitudes) are more likely than lower types to interact with other high types. Assortativity creates scope for misperception\, because what players observe in their local interactions need not be representative of society as a whole. To model this\, we define a tractable solution concept\, “local perception equilibrium” (LPE)\, that describes possible behavior and perceptions when players’ beliefs are derived only from their local observations. We show that there is a unique form of misperception that can persist in any environment: This is assortativity neglect\, where all agents believe the people they interact with to be a representative sample of society as a whole. Relative to the case with correct perceptions\, assortativity neglect generates two mutually reinforcing departures: A “false consensus effect\,” whereby agents’ perceptions of average characteristics in the population are increasing in their own type\; and more “dispersed” behavior in society\, which adversely affects welfare due to increased miscoordination. Finally\, we propose a comparative notion of when one society is more assortative than another and show that more assortative societies are characterized precisely by greater action dispersion and a more severe false consensus effect\, and as a result\, greater assortativity has an ambiguous effect on welfare.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Chemical Insights into Earth’s Microbiomes
DESCRIPTION:The Planet Earth is a microbial world\, and the health of its inhabitants rests on the proverbial backs of microscopic organisms within oceans\, rivers\, soils and air. The oceans\, in particular\, are fundamental to the life-sustaining capabilities of Planet Earth\, enabling all organisms from microbes to humans to persist and thrive. Within the oceans\, microbes have an essential role\, making the oxygen we breathe\, removing greenhouse gas carbon dioxide from the atmosphere\, anchoring the marine food web\, fueling life within coral reefs\, and promoting the health of fisheries and marine mammals. Detailed studies of microbial metabolism\, therefore\, provide fundamental knowledge about the life-sustaining processes on Earth. Recent work in this field has focused on the first order question of “who is there?” but second-order questions such as “what are they doing” and “how” are equally critical to assessing the role of microbial reactions in the global carbon cycle. Metabolomics\, or the study of biochemical molecules\, is one lens through which the chemical capacity of microbes can be viewed. In this presentation\, I offer two case studies in which we use metabolomics to understand the chemical interplay of microbes. First\, I will present work showing the role of microbes in particle remineralization in the open ocean\, with implications for global carbon cycling. Second\, I will present work showing the role of human and earth microbiomes in the chemistry of human sewage. These case studies are linked by the over-arching theme of microbial metabolism and its sentinel roles in understanding critical processes on our planet and will highlight the continuing role of analytical chemistry in elucidating fundamental earth system functions.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Black Detroit: A People's History of Self-determination
DESCRIPTION:Herb Boyd — journalist\, activist\, teacher\, and author or editor of 23 books — talks about his latest publication\, a Great Michigan Read book\, Black Detroit: A People's History of Self-determination. The book looks at the evolving culture\, politics\, economics\, and spiritual life of Detroit – a blend of memoir\, love letter\, history\, and clear-eyed reportage that explores the city’s past\, present\, and future and its significance to the African-American legacy and the nation’s fabric. It brings into focus the major figures who have defined and shaped Detroit\, including William Lambert\, the great abolitionist\; Berry Gordy\, the founder of Motown Records\; Coleman Young\, the city’s first black mayor\; diva songstress Aretha Franklin\; Malcolm X\; and Ralph Bunche\, winner of the Nobel Peace Prize.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:ROBERT J. SWANSON MEMORIAL LECTURE: GREGG PASQUARELLI (SHOP ARCHITECTS)
DESCRIPTION:Gregg Pasquarelli co-founded the architectural firm SHoP Architects with Christopher Sharples\, Coren Sharples\, Kimberly Holden\, and William Sharples in 1997 and has lectured\, exhibited\, and been published internationally. He is an Adjunct Associate Professor of Architecture at Columbia GSAPP. Pasquarelli received a Bachelor of Science from the School of Business at Villanova University and a Master of Architecture from Columbia GSAPP.\n\nSHoP's work includes the Barclays Center at Atlantic Yards in Brooklyn\; a two-mile esplanade and park along the East River Waterfront in New York\; the Innovation Hub government complex in Botswana\; the South Street Seaport redevelopment in New York\; a new major league soccer stadium in New York\; and projects for Google in Mountain View\, California.\n\nPasquarelli has taught at Yale\, Columbia\, the University of Virginia\, and the University of Florida. He has lectured globally and his work has been reviewed and published in periodicals such as Architect\, Architectural Record\, the New Yorker\, Wallpaper\, Metropolis\, Wired\, Fast Company\, Surface\, Dwell\, A+U\, and The New York Times\, among others.\n\nSHoP's work is in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art\, New York.\n\nPasquarelli serves on the Board of Directors for the Architectural League of New York and is a Young Leader’s Fellow of the National Committee on United States-China Relations.\n\nHUDSON’S SITE DEVELOPMENT\n\nIn 2013\, SHoP was selected after an invited competition to study the possibilities for using the former J.L. Hudson’s Department Store site in downtown Detroit as a catalyst for the ongoing revitalization of the city. Our clients at Rock Ventures recognized that the Hudson’s site must play a central role in their ongoing efforts to revitalize the city by returning residents\, commerce\, and cultural uses to the center of the city. Together with Detroit-based architects Hamilton Anderson Associates\, we designed a building that offers a very broad range of uses. At its center is an enclosed community civic space that opens wide to welcome residents and visitors from surrounding streets. Around that center\, retail\, residential as well as food and culture will provide everyday services now lacking for the influx of residents that continue to relocate Downtown. Once complete\, the building will be a powerful tool for encouraging growth and the renewal of civic pride—not only downtown but in the surrounding communities and the city and the region as a whole.

SUMMARY:Performance:Dead Horses w/sg Benjamin Jaffe (of HONEYHONEY)
DESCRIPTION:Back from the Friday night bill at the 2018 Ann Arbor Folk Festival\, Dead Horses is vocalist/guitarist Sarah Vos and vocalist/bassist Daniel Wolff\, sometimes augmented by other musicians as needed. Originally hailing from a small Wisconsin town made world famous by a pair of overalls (Oshkosh\, B'Gosh)\, the now Milwaukee-based folk band have cultivated a sensibility beyond their years due in part to the powerful literary force that is frontwoman and songwriter Vos. Raised on Bible hymns by her preacher father\, she has a backstory that sounds more like that of an old bluesman from the Mississippi Delta than that of a young folk singer from Wisconsin. Despite their youth\, Dead Horses have crafted a timeless sound\, informed as much by modern Americana as it is by traditional roots music. They've worked with producer Ken Coomer (Wilco\, Uncle Tupelo) who later invited the band to his studio to record the album\, \"Cartoon Moon.\" They return to Michigan with a new album\, \"My Mother the Moon.\"
