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.

Her main interest is in computational social science. She is particularly interested in the use of large scale data sets and computational techniques to study problems with policy\, social\, and political implications. Dr. Budak’s degrees are in Computer Science\, with a B.S. from Bilkent \nUniversity\, Turkey\, and a Ph.D. from the University of California\, Santa Barbara.\n\n\nThis talk assesses the factors charitable givers consider when deciding which charities receive their monetary donations. For example\, do donors consider the \nefficiency of organizations they contribute to? Recent research suggests that the average donor is “wasting” over 15% of their contribution by opting for poorly run organizations as opposed to higher-rated charities supporting the same cause(s). The talk explores ways to use the internet to improve giving decisions. More generally\, it explores the reasons people care about the causes that they support.\n\nThis is the last in a six-lecture series. The subject is Behavioral and Social Sciences: Real World Applications. The next series will start April 19\, 2018. The subject is Faces of Addiction.

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. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

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.

The symposium consists of a keynote memorial lecture public event the morning of the MLK holiday (January 15) [open to the public\, not ticketed]. The efforts to determine the symposium theme\, the artwork for the event booklet\, and speakers for the symposium are determined from a dedicated group of students\, faculty\, staff and administrators across campus. \n\nWe welcome any interested individuals who are passionate about social justice\, civil and human rights\, and UM’s role in creating a dynamic program that honors Dr. King to attend our monthly meetings. They are informal\, please attend when you would like. Each meeting focuses on finalizing a piece of the symposium events\, sharing department or org events\, and always reflecting on current affairs\, with an emphasis on mindfulness and community. \n\nSTUDENTS! (undergrad\, grad\, professional\, etc) We need your voice at the table!\n\nMore information about putting your event in the booklet or online\, the history of speakers\, and other ways to get involved\, please visit mlksymposium.umich.edu hosted and sponsored by the Office of Academic Multicultural Initiatives (OAMI).\n\nPlease email mlksymposiuminfo@umich.edu if you plan on attending an upcoming meeting\, so that we may have an accurate food count.\n\nThe theme for the 2018 Symposium is The Fierce Urgency of Now. This theme calls us to claim ownership of the challenges we face and not leave it for future generations to address. Amidst technological advancements and increased global connections\, much work still needs to be done to heal the wounds of our past\, and resolve the injustices of our present. The Fierce Urgency of Now compels us to not only act\, but to also acknowledge that the absence of action and the continuation of silence\, serves to bring us deeper into the shadows of division.

In response to the so-called deportation crisis\, nearly 500 localities have declared themselves “sanctuary” jurisdictions. This term refers to the cities\, counties\, and states that limit their cooperation with federal authorities on immigration matters. Supporters typically argue that sanctuary jurisdictions are safer because sanctuary policies encourage good relationships between migrant communities and local law enforcement. Opponents insist that sanctuary policies defy federal law and harbor criminals\, creating a dangerous environment for U.S. citizens. My talk will explore three moral justifications for sanctuary policies—the public safety\, civil disobedience\, and collective resistance arguments—and offer a preliminary defense of the latter of these justifications. Specifically\, I will argue that although some sanctuary policies can be justified by appeals to public safety considerations\, others are best understood as a form of legitimate collective resistance.

Faeth Memorial Lecture with our distinguished guest speaker\, Alexander J. Smits\, Eugene Higgins Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Princeton University\n\nBiology offers a rich source of inspiration for the design of novel propulsors with the potential to overcome and surpass the performance of traditional propulsors for the next generation of underwater vehicles. To-date\, however\, we have not achieved the deeper understanding of the biological systems required to engineer propulsors with the high speed and efficiencies of animals like sailfish\, tuna\, or dolphins. What is the underlying physics of the fluid-structure interaction of bio-propulsors that results in the superior performance observed in nature? Moreover\, how do we replicate this performance in the next generation of man-made propulsors? Can we push beyond the limits of biology? By studying the performance of simple heaving and pitching foils\, we have identified the basic scaling that describes the thrust\, power\, and efficiency\, under continuous as well as burst-coast actuation. These scaling relationships allow us to identify the natural limits on simple bio-inspired propulsors and suggest that further improvements in performance will require adaptive flexibility and optimized platforms.\n\nOur distinguished guest speaker...\n\nDr. Smits is the Eugene Higgins Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Princeton.

Such contrast agents are used worldwide to improve the diagnostic capabilities of ultrasound imaging especially when employed in combination with novel nonlinear contrast imaging modes such pulse inversion second harmonic and subharmonic imaging (SHI). Our group produced the first ever human SHI images. We have previously shown that SHI signals can indicate hydrostatic pressures in vitro and has developed a noninvasive pressure measurement technique\, known as subharmonic-aided pressure estimation (SHAPE)\, based on this principle. Noninvasive SHAPE measurements may be a useful alternative to catheter- based measurements of cardiac conditions or portal hypertension. Here\, we present results from our pre-clinical and clinical trials on the utility of ultrasound contrast imaging in general as well as quantitative SHI and SHAPE results in particular.

The between-party New Deal economic policy cleavage was highly correlated with income\, occupation\, and union membership. Religion did not play a major role in American politics as white evangelicals had few overtly political interests\, and they identified with both the Republican and Democratic parties. \n\nStarting in the 1970s with the Supreme Court's Roe vs. Wade (1973) decision and with the playing out of the consequences of the Civil Rights Acts of the mid 1960s\, a two-dimensional cleavage structure arose comprising the traditional New Deal economic cleavage based upon income and occupation and a new social issues cleavage between the parties based upon religious attendance and moral conservatism. Although African Americans voted reliably for Democrats and many whites in the south began to vote for Republicans\, the racial cleavage seemed largely submerged beneath the economic and social issues dimensions. Unlike economic policy where budgetary compromises were possible\, concerns with social issues such as abortion\, prayer in the schools\, and gay rights presented problems where compromise was very difficult if not impossible.  In addition\, conservatives sorted into the Republican Party and liberals into the Democratic Party. The result was an increasingly polarized politics.\n\nHas this structure changed once again?   Are we now witnessing the emergence of a new dimension in American politics based upon xenophobia\, racism\, and nationalist sentiments? Was this dimension always there but obscured by other issues such as economics and moral conservatism? How does this dimension relate to the New Deal dimension and to social issues? How does it relate to America's long-term struggle with its legacy of slavery?\n\nUsing American National Election Studies and other data from the 1970s and earlier\, this talk examines spatial diagrams over time to map out the changing coalitional structure of the parties\, to investigate the possible emergence of a new xenophobic dimension\, and to better understand populism and polarization in American politics.

In contrast to arguments that suggest new technologies are maximizing mobility to the point where people are nearly free from the constraints of time\, space\, and social bonds\, social media are renewing many of the constraints and opportunities of an earlier\, denser and more stable network of relations. As a result of the relational persistence\, social ties and the contexts where they are formed are less transitory than at any time in modern history. Through the ambient\, lean\, asynchronous nature of social media\, awareness provides for an informal watchfulness that was common in earlier communities. The result is heightened knowledge about the opinions\, activities and mental state of ones' social ties. This awareness is associated with a number of beneficial outcomes\, including higher awareness of social capital and social support\, but it may also be associated with less desirable outcomes. This presentation focuses on a number of these outcomes\, including social stress\, a spiral of silence\, and increased psychological distress over time.

Variation in the functional properties of visual pigments can therefore have profound consequences on the visual capabilities of an organism. The visual system has a surprisingly large dynamic range\, and is highly specialized for the efficient sensing of light in extremely diverse light environments. How is this achieved at the molecular level? My laboratory studies these and other questions such as the mechanisms of spectral tuning\, and the evolution of color vision\, using a variety of interdisciplinary approaches\, including ancestral reconstruction\, computational sequence analysis\, site-directed mutagenesis and protein expression in mammalian and yeast systems.\n\nView YouTube video of seminar: https://youtu.be/b8CVmp5n0nI UID:49262-11397845@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/49262 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biology,Natural Sciences,Research,Science LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - 1200 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180427T123005 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20180412T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20180412T170000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Resume Workshop with NYC Career Experts from Choice Fashion and Media DESCRIPTION:If you are in Handshake\, Click \"Join event\" to RSVP* Not in Handshake?

We formulate the concept of active measurements for relativistic models. We do this by coupling Einstein equations with equations for scalar fields.\n\nThe inverse problem we study is the question of whether the observations of the solutions of the coupled system in an open subset of the space-time with the sources supported in this set determines the properties of the metric in a larger domain. To study this problem we define the concept of light observation sets and show that knowledge of these sets determine the conformal class of the metric. This corresponds to passive observations from a distant area of space which is filled by light sources.\n\nWe will start by considering inverse problems for scalar non-linear hyperbolic equations to explain our method. No previous knowledge of Lorentzian geometry or general relativity will be assumed. This is joint work with P. Hinz\, Y. Kurylev\, M. Lasss and Y. Wang.

Although the impulse toward counterpoint is well-documented and persists among multimedia artists to this day\, few scholars agree on what constitutes multimedia counterpoint and some have even questioned whether audiovisual works can be contrapuntal. My talk suggests a new understanding of multimedia counterpoint based on historical sources and extends the metaphor to cover specific types of audiovisual interactions. I conclude that\, like musical counterpoint\, the idea of multimedia counterpoint is most useful when it is used to describe degrees of similarity and difference rather than absolute states of parallelism and contrast.\n\nAnna Gawboy is an associate professor of music theory at the Ohio State University School of Music. Her research explores the intersection of music theory\, cultural history\, musical performance\, and multimedia. This interdisciplinary orientation has allowed her work to find audiences in a variety of contexts including Slavic studies\, religious studies\, film studies\, art history\, and theater/performance studies. As coordinator of the first-year music theory curriculum at Ohio State\, she engages pedagogies of digital media in both her teaching and scholarship.

Stories provide mirrors\, windows\, and doors into other existences\, both real and imagined. A sense of the infinite possibilities inherent in fairy tales\, fantasy\, science fiction\, comics\, and graphic novels draws children\, teens\, and adults from all backgrounds to speculative fiction – also known as the fantastic. However\, when people of color seek passageways into the fantastic\, we often discover that the doors are barred. Even the very act of dreaming of worlds-that-never-were can be challenging when the known world does not provide many liberatory spaces.\n\nThe Dark Fantastic: Race and the Imagination in Youth Literature\, Media\, and Culture (forthcoming\, New York University Press) argues that the presence of Black characters in speculative fiction creates a dilemma. The way that this dilemma is most often resolved is by enacting violence against the character\, who then haunts the narrative. This is what readers of the fantastic expect\, for it mirrors the spectacle of symbolic violence against dark-skinned people in our own world.\n\nThe Dark Fantastic explores the fantastic from the perspectives of four stories\, four fantastic worlds\, and four Black girl protagonists – Bonnie Bennett from Alloy and the CW’s The Vampire Diaries\, Rue from Suzanne Collins’s The Hunger Games\, Gwen from the BBC’s Merlin\, and Angelina Johnson from J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series. In her chapter on The Vampire Diaries book series and television show\, for example\, Thomas examines the way that Bonnie is positioned vis-à-vis beauty and desirability politics\, privileging her story over that of White protagonist Elena Gilbert. This critical race counterstorying perspective examines how race and the imagination bend such texts at the seams\, contorting both space and time.\n\nThrough emancipated imaginations\, endarkened and made whole\, the literary landscape for our young people can indeed be made anew—and turned upside down.

This class identifies not only these everyday objects with which to perform and reconstruct\, but also seeks hybrid instruments that combine found objects with instruments of old. The semester will commence with an overview of instrument categories\, tunings\, and some of the guiding physics behind instruments. This includes important composers and artists from the early 20th century to current artists and emerging technologies (such as using the iPhone as an instrument). The class goes as a group (and individually) to seek materials for designing and building instruments. The class also covers the basics of musicianship\, composition\, form\, improvisation and playing as an ensemble. The culmination of the class is a presentation of our instruments and a performance in the East Quad Auditorium.\n\nThis course and performance led by Professor Michael Gould\, Director\, Center for World Performance Studies\, Professor of Music at the School of Music\, Theater and Dance\, and the Residential College\, LSA UID:51592-12170475@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/51592 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Inclusion,Music LOCATION:East Quadrangle - Keene Theater CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180327T181523 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20180412T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20180412T213000 SUMMARY:Performance:Live Performances - Exchanges: How We Got Here DESCRIPTION:Exchanges: How We Got Here\, the 2018 Stamps Senior Show\, features work in a range of media by graduating BA\, BFA \,and Interarts students at U-M’s Penny W.

Based in New York City\, he has traveled widely performing\, recording and amassing a very personal and iconoclastic body of work. And yet Eskelin has always remained deeply committed to the traditions of jazz and American music. He embodies this seeming contradiction with ease. He does not see jazz as a style or idiom but as a process. Further\, a process of creative development that has great relevancy to our time. In this pursuit Eskelin consistently delivers to the listening public unadulterated\, passionate music with no excuses and no apologies.
