SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach-Out Series: Listening to Puerto Rico
DESCRIPTION:On September 20\, 2017\, Hurricane María struck the island of Puerto Rico with catastrophic force\, shattering lives\, communities\, infrastructure and the physical environment. One year later\, Puerto Rico remains in the grips of an ongoing and systematic crisis. \n\nIn June 2018\, teams from the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame traveled to Puerto Rico  to film testimonies from Puerto Ricans from all walks of life. In this Teach-Out\, you will hear powerful narratives of loss and recovery\, abandonment and resilience\, failure and hope as you come to better understand Puerto Rico’s past\, present\, and future. \n\nThese individual testimonials are complemented by resources that are meant to deepen your understanding of an urgent multidimensional crisis that involves policy\, culture and history\,  political economy\, environmental loss\, civil infrastructure\, public health\, and human dignity. In this teach-out\, we spotlight  a number of successful organizations\, strategies and solutions that are contributing to Puerto Rico’s recovery. \n\nUnderstanding begins with listening. But “listening” is not just about hearing people’s words: it also implies taking notice of\, and acting on\, what people say. Shaped by the individual experience of everyday life\, the Listening to Puerto Rico Teach-Out invites you to hear many voices from a distressed but resilient island and discover how you can contribute to the island’s recovery. \n\nThis Teach-Out is a collaboration between the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame. \n\nPlease join us in listening to Puerto Rico.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Animal Friends: Ceramic Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Marcia Polenberg loves animals\, each with its own unique personality\, intelligence and expressive range of emotions. Using terra-cotta sculpture clay\, Polenberg hand builds her ceramic animals\, seemingly bringing them to life.

Stamps School of Art & Design in ceramics and sculpture and a BA from the City University of New York in painting\, Polenberg widely exhibits her creative works in several media: ceramics\, paint\, graphite and pastel.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Celebrating Science & Art
DESCRIPTION:The brilliantly colored images in this exhibit were taken in the course of scientific research\, and are beautiful in their detail\, form and symmetry. For each one\, an accompanying explanation describes its significance. The subjects of the images are cells\, tissues and organs\, from a wide variety of biological sources (plants\, worms\, fruit flies\, fish\, mice and yes\, even human brain). The colors are added by investigators\, to allow them to see the otherwise transparent tissues. By looking at these microscopic images\, you will learn about research into normal embryonic development as well as cutting-edge investigations into diseases such as basal cell carcinoma\, bipolar disease\, epilepsy and cancer.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Organic Fiction: Acrylic on Canvas
DESCRIPTION:Hava Gurevich’s colorful abstractions feature botanical\, aquatic and microscopic motifs as she explores repeating patterns in nature. Blending images from the real world and her imagination\, Organic Fiction celebrates nature in all its beauty\, chaos and complexity. Hava Gurevich received a BFA in photography from U-M and an MFA in painting from Illinois State University. Her creative process begins with photographs and sketches of details in nature\, such as tree branches\, ice patterns\, twisted vines\, and delicate spring blossoms.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Urban Biographies\, Ancient and Modern
DESCRIPTION:Human beings are political animals\, said the Greek philosopher Aristotle: animals that live in the “polis\,” the Greek word for city. Over two thousand years later\, we are still political animals\, and the study of ancient cities is of abiding interest\, for our perceptions of the urban centers of the past continue to exert a powerful hold on modern culture. \n\nThis exhibition showcases three Classical cities where the University of Michigan sponsors field projects: Gabii in Italy\, Olynthos in Greece\, and Notion in Turkey. The archaeologists excavating these cities\, in collaboration with students and faculty from U-M’s Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, are comparing their findings to projects of urban rebuilding in contemporary Detroit\, asking two main questions: How do contemporary archaeological methods facilitate the study of both ancient and modern cities? And how can the study of the past help illuminate the challenges and opportunities facing Detroit today? \n\nLead Curator: Christopher Ratté\nCo-Curators: Lisa Nevett\, Nicola Terrenato\, and Kathy Velikov\n\nVisit the exhibition website: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/urban-biographies

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:The Magic Laws of Music
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wondered what makes different styles of music unique? We will explore distinctive musical genres to understand the essence of their style and appeal. \n\nThe first meeting will describe what makes music “western”\, describing the sonic power of chords. They create anticipation and prediction in any type of western music and you will hear examples drawn from classic folk and popular music. The second session will explore Indonesian golden gong sounds\, in which time cycles guide the audience through many layers of sound. The third class will cover Japanese noh drama music\, which is characterized by the horizontal drive of drum patterns that equal vertical western chords. \n\nInstructor William Malm is a Professor Emeritus of Music from the University of Michigan. He is the founder of the World Music Program and Director of the Stearns Collection of Musical Instruments.  This study group for those 50 and above will meet on Fridays\, 10-11:30\, from September 21 through October 5.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Beyond Borders: Global Africa
DESCRIPTION:More than ever in the era of globalization\, ideas traverse geographic\, generational\, and cultural boundaries\, even as national borders seem to be closing. 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' reflects on this moment by considering how Africa and its artists have been at the center of complex histories of encounter and exchange for centuries. Bringing together a dazzling array of works made in Africa\, Europe\, and the United States from the nineteenth to twenty-first century\, the exhibition demonstrates the international scope and reach of art from Africa and the African diaspora.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire
DESCRIPTION:Have We Met: Dialogues on Memory and Desire draws inspiration from Ann Arbor’s legacy of social movements (Anti-War Movement\, Civil Rights Movements) and experimental art practices (The Once Group) from the late-1950s to the 1970s as its point of departure. It brings together archival materials and reproductions from the University of Michigan’s Labadie Collection and the Bentley Library in conjunction with radical artworks by diverse\, multi-generational artists and designers whose works are deeply influenced by the ideas of freedom and self-determination\; re-writing the canonical accounts of history\; and building contemporary culture and solidarity through collective action.\n\nAt a time when the idea of citizenship in the United States is being deeply challenged and redefined through horrific occurrences of gun violence and police brutality towards racialized and queer civilians and refugees\, this exhibition asks what role art institutions can play in building inclusive and vibrant creative spaces the 21st Century. Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire retraces and learns from models of collectivity and organizing mobilized by artists\, designers\, and cultural producers in the past and present as a lens to understand the contemporary moment and re-imagine the future.  It explores the complex relationships and at times overlapping and contested concerns between contemporary art\, design\, and social justice that continually influence and inform one another.\n\nArtists: Rudolf Baranik\, Stephanie Dinkins\, Emory Douglas\, Brendan Fernandes\, Chitra Ganesh\, Carole Harris\, Maren Hassinger\, Al Loving\, Josh MacPhee\, Native Art Department International\, Michele Oka Doner\, Yoko Ono\, Kameelah Janan Rasheed\, Martha Rosler\, Buster Simpson\, Gregory Sholette\, Leni Sinclair\, Stephanie Syjuco\, Graem Whyte\, and Zafos Xagoraris. \n\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Manufacturing Research Seminar Series: Industry 4.0: Implementation Challenges Across Technology\, People and PRocess
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nIndustry 4.0\, is the current manufacturing industry term that combines IoT\, Big Data and cloud computing to develop factories that have the ability to make real-time decisions based on large amounts of data. Some of the intended benefits are smarter more automated factories that can detect bottlenecks\, deficiencies and constantly align / optimize demand with supply. The underlying assumption is that a smart factory supports the overall company strategy and objectives. \n\nThus far\, much of the Industry 4.0 discussions has focused on the technology transformation tools (i.e. AR\, VR\, Big Data\, Additive Manufacturing\, Autonomous Robots & Co-bots\, Simulation). In this talk\, we’ll discuss the implementation challenges of these tools from a technology\, people\, process and financial perspective. We will examine the five different levels of automation and the transformational steps shops must adopt across the facility to advance towards the future state of an automated smart factory. Additionally\, we’ll review real-world examples of both high-volume manufacturers and the traditional job shop and share where they are along the automation continuum. \n\nBio\nJames Ricci is the Chief Technology Officer at Harbour Results\, Inc. He has more than 25 years of experience in engineering\, manufacturing\, quality and supply chain focused on implementing lean and process improvement initiatives\, developing and executing operational turnarounds\, developing manufacturing strategies\, performing competitive benchmarking and due diligence.\n\nIn his current role as CTO\, Ricci works with manufacturing organizations to improve their global competitiveness\, which includes transitioning to a data driven organization and implementing Industry 4.0 tools. \n\nRicci began his career at Honda of America Mfg.\, in engineering\, manufacturing and new program launch with responsibilities related to quality\, warranty\, production and cost competitiveness. Ricci worked for other notable organizations including KPMG LLP and Harbour Consulting where he was responsible for directing and executing projects to improve client operating performance\, including lean manufacturing implementation\, quality improvement and operational assistance in restructuring and manufacturing consolidation. Assignments included a two-year staff augmentation role as the interim Manufacturing Manager for a Ford vehicle assembly plant.\n\nRicci holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Industrial Engineering from the University of Pittsburgh and a Master of Engineering Management from the University of Michigan. He also is a Certified Supply Chain Professional (CSCP).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Marcel Dzama: A Jester's Dance
DESCRIPTION:Canadian artist Marcel Dzama is known for imaginative drawings\, sculptures\, dioramas\, and films rooted in the traditions of Surrealism\, Dada and outsider art. His 2013 film Une danse des bouffons (or A jester's dance) tells the tale of a romance between two principal figures of these traditions: Dada icon Marcel Duchamp and Brazilian sculptor Maria Martins\, who was the model for Duchamp's final\, enigmatic artwork Étant donnés. Rife with art-historical references not only to the work of Duchamp but also to Francisco Goya\, Francis Picabia and Joseph Beuys\, among others\, Une danse des bouffons navigates a sexually charged and mesmerizing world in which fantasy and torture run amok. The gallery presentation also includes a storyboard for the film featuring Dzama’s ink and watercolor drawings\, renderings of small hybrid figures resembling children’s book illustrations. The drawings underscore the fantastical elements in a film that combines the carnivalesque with a nightmarish exploration of the surreal.\n\nLead support for Marcel Dzama: A Jester's Dance is provided by Candy and Michael Barasch. Additional generous support is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Life Magazine 1947 Homecoming Photographs
DESCRIPTION:In October 1947\, just two years after the end of World War II\, the popular weekly news magazine LIFE sent staff photographers Lisa Larsen and Ralph Morse to cover homecoming weekend at the University of Michigan. The subsequent article\, “Michigan Homecoming\,” which brought national attention to UM’s athletic program\, featured a seven-page spread with photographs of the campus during a much-anticipated football game between the number-one ranked Michigan Wolverines and the University of Minnesota’s Golden Gophers. This installation provides a unique opportunity to view twenty-one images of that weekend\, many of which were not published in the original article\, recently donated to UMMA by John and Susan Edwards Harvith. Considered alongside the article\, these photographs of fervent fans\, strolling couples\, alumni making their annual pilgrimage\, and the game itself present LIFE magazine’s view of a giddy post-war public enjoying a return to American pastimes.\n\nThese photographs were recently gifted to UMMA by John (AB '69\, JD '73) and Susan (MMP '73) Harvith.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:See Through: Windows and Mirrors in Twentieth-Century Photography
DESCRIPTION:See Through: Mirrors and Windows in Twentieth-Century Photography brings together a group of images that are doubly framed—once by the camera lens and again by the border of a mirror or window. By refracting and distorting\, revealing and concealing\, these reflective and transparent surfaces both draw attention to the photographer’s efforts to frame the world and expose the contingent nature of reality. Highlights from the exhibition include works by Eugène Atget\, Robert Doisneau\, Elliott Erwitt\, Walker Evans\, André Kertész\, Joanne Leonard\, Danny Lyon\, and Joel Meyerowitz. By extending the limits of perception\, these witty and provocative works invite us to see [through to] new visual possibilities.\n\nLead support for See Through: Windows and Mirrors in Twentieth-Century Photography is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Seminar Series: Peter Orbanz\, Associate Professor\, Department of Statistics\, Columbia University
DESCRIPTION:A recent body of work\, by myself and many others\, aims to develop a statistical theory of network data for problems a single network is observed. Of the models studied in this area\, graphon models are probably most widely known in statistics. I will explain the relationship between three aspects of this work: (1) Specific models\, such as graphon models\, graphex models\, and edge-exchangeable graphs. (2) Sampling theory for networks\, specifically in the case statisticians might refer to as an infinite-population limit. (3) Invariance properties\, especially various forms of exchangeability. I will also present recent results that show how statistically relevant results (such as central limit theorems) can be derived from such invariance properties.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IOE 836 Seminar: Matthew P. Reed\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:Title: The Meaning is the Variance: Population Heterogeneity Should be the Focus of Ergonomics and Biomechanics Research\n\nBio: Matthew P. Reed\, PhD.\, is the Don B. Chaffin Collegiate Research Professor and head of the Biosciences Group of the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute. He also has appointments in Integrative Systems and Design\, where he is Chair of the interdisciplinary Design Science program\, and Industrial and Operations Engineering\, where he leads the Human Motion Simulation Laboratory in the Center for Ergonomics. Dr. Reed’s research focuses on vehicle safety\, engineering anthropometry\, and ergonomics. He is an author of more than 250 publications relating to humans in engineered systems. Dr. Reed is a Fellow in SAE International and a member of the SAE Human Accommodation and Design Devices Committee\, Driver Vision Standards Committee\, and Truck and Bus Human Factors Committee. He has received outstanding paper awards from SAE\, including the Arch T. Colwell Merit Award\, the Myers Award\, and the Isbrandt Award for crash safety research. He currently serves as vice-president of the International Research Council on the Biomechanics of Injury.\n\nAbstract: The “50th-percentile” male is never the limiting case\, and the “5th-percentile female” and “95th-percentile male” don’t exist. Why do people keep talking about them? I will discuss why mean and univariate effects in ergonomics and biomechanics often leave out most of the interesting phenomena and why we should focus our efforts in education and research on rigorous\, multivariate consideration of population heterogeneity with examples from industrial ergonomics\, product design\, and crash safety.

Nanoscale Insights into the Structural and Chemical Determinants of Halide Perovskite Optoelectronic Performance\"\n\nABSTRACT:\nHalide perovskites have attracted widespread interest for application in optoelectronics including solar cells\, LEDs\, and lasers because of their low-temperature synthesis and reported defect tolerance\, in stark contrast to commercialized silicon and thin film technologies. In this talk\, I will discuss how we are using nanoprobe X-ray microscopy to investigate the relationship between the defects that do appear in hybrid perovskites and optoelectronic performance and stability. Using a series of model materials\, we have studied the heterogeneity in local chemistry and structure in these films and its significant impact on charge collection and degradation. I will also share insights from our in situ nanoprobe investigations of non-stoichiometry in operating perovskite solar cells. By understanding and mitigating defects in the bulk and at interfaces\, we aim to systematically accelerate the development of these optoelectronic materials.\n\nBIO:\nDr. David P. Fenning is an Assistant Professor in NanoEngineering at UC San Diego\, where his group researches materials for solar energy conversion and storage. Currently\, his work focuses on defects and reliability in silicon and hybrid perovskite solar cells and CO2 electrocatalysis for solar fuels.  After completing his Ph.D. on silicon solar cell materials at MIT in 2013\, he worked with the silicon R&D team at 1366 Technologies Inc.\, followed by an MIT/Battelle postdoctoral fellowship in solar fuels. He joined the NanoEngineering department at UC San Diego in 2015. He is a recipient of the American Chemical Society’s PRF New Investigator award and was recognized as a 2017 Hellman Fellow. His research is supported by the DOE SunShot Initiative and the California Energy Commission.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Jim Crow and the Spatial Mismatch Hypothesis
DESCRIPTION:A robust body of social science research has investigated the spatial mismatch hypothesis (SMH)\, considering the consequences of geographic disparities between black residential locations and potential opportunities for employment. Focusing on U.S. urban areas between the 1970s and the present\, studies have produced equivocal evidence on the implications of spatial mismatch for black employment. In this paper\, we argue that the mixed evidence may result from a misspecification in both the historical time period and mechanisms whereby spatial mismatch affects black employment opportunities. We show that national declines in black employment and labor force participation\, particularly among black women\, were especially pronounced in the Jim Crow era (1880s-mid 1960s)\, rather than the post-industrial era (1970s to present) in which the SMH has generally been tested. We then investigate the extent to which the SMH should be formulated as a commuting problem\, involving the difficulties that blacks face in reaching non-residential sites of employment\, or a problem of residential ecology\, in which blacks who do not live near entrepreneurs or white neighbors are less likely to obtain jobs. Analysis of census micro-data between 1910 and 1970 suggests that residential segregation provides the most consistent account of black-white employment gaps\, insofar as employment under Jim Crow suffered when black housing was separated from the homes of business owners and work opportunities in residential locales.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Early Atlantic Workshop. Crowded Places: Slavery\, Science\, and the Roots of Fresh Air in the Atlantic World
DESCRIPTION:In the late-eighteenth century\, European chemists Antoine Lavoisier\, Joseph Priestley\, and Carl Wilhelm Scheele all individually claimed that they had first discovered the element oxygen. While the debate escalated among British\, German\, and French scientists\, British physicians proved the existence of oxygen by turning to the international slave trade. They showed how lack of oxygen among enslaved Africans crammed in the bottom of ships\, which traveled from Africa to the Caribbean\, led to high mortality rates. The international slave trade\, in turn\, made a scientific theory legible. Oxygen later emerged as a key element in the periodic table but how the international slave trade gave it scientific validity has been forgotten.\n\nThis paper grows out of Prof. Downs' book project\, \"The Laboring Dead: From Subjugation to Science in Global History.\"

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Seminars | Supersymmetric Localization: Review and Recent Progress
DESCRIPTION:Supersymmetric localization is a powerful tool that can provide us with some exact non-perturbative results of quantum field theories. In the first half of this talk we will review its basic idea and some important applications. The results of localization can be used to test some conjectured dualities\, for instance the Seiberg-like dualities in various dimensions\, and also to help set up new dualities. We will demonstrate these aspects with some examples. In the second half of this talk\, we will discuss some recent progress on the localization of 4d N=1 gauge theories. We consider 4d N=1 gauge theories on S2*R2 and compute their partition functions. The results are related to the partition functions of 4d N=1 gauge theories on the Omega background with two epsilon parameters\, which can be viewed as building blocks of the Nekrasov partition functions of the 4d N=2 theories on the Omega background. As an application\, we use the N=1 partition functions to test various dualities such as the 4d Seiberg duality. Further applications to the 4d Argyres-Douglas theories and the generalized AGT relation will also be discussed. This talk is based on a few papers 1309.3266\, 1411.4694\, 1505.06207\, 1705.01896 and some work in progress.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: The Making of a Continent
DESCRIPTION:Continents ride high because they are underlain by thick\, in contrast to the low riding ocean basins\, which have thin crust. The birth of continent is fundamentally controlled by processes that generate thick crust: magmatism and tectonic compression.  Continents are born in magmatic orogenies\, during which magmatism and thickening feedback on each other to influence the extent and nature of magmatic differentiation.  As crust thickens\, the depth and extent of differentiation increases\, eventually resulting in the fractionation of garnet\, which drives residual magmas towards silicic and iron depleted signatures. Eventually\, these garnet-rich cumulates\, owing to their high densities founder back into the mantle\, leaving behind a felsic continental crust.  A key component to continent formation processes is erosion. Erosion is highest during magmatism\, when the crust is thick and elevations high\, resulting in rapid synmagmatic exhumation.  As the magmatic and tectonic driving forces wane\, continued erosion gradually thins the crust\, causing elevations to decrease. With time\, thermal relaxation becomes important\, resulting in further subsidence.  Eventually\, the mountain subsides into a continental basin and transitions from erosion to deposition.  The final resting state of a continent depends on a number of factors\, including the average temperature of the mantle.  As the Earth cools\, the resting states of stable continents rise\, returning them to above sea level.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Linguistics Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:The Department of Linguistics Fall 2018 Colloquium Series begins September 21st with a presentation by Stephanie Shih\, Assistant Professor of Linguistics\, University of Southern California.\n\nABSTRACT\nCatching phonology in the Pokéverse: Cross-linguistic comparisons in sound symbolism\n\nSound symbolism flouts the core assumption of the arbitrariness of the sign in human language. The cross-linguistic prevalence of sound symbolism raises key questions about the universality versus language-specificity of sound symbolic correspondences. One challenge to studying cross-linguistic sound symbolic patterns is the difficulty of holding constant the real-world referents across cultures. In this talk\, I present a rich\, cross-linguistic dataset that addresses the challenges of cross-linguistic comparison by providing a controlled reference ‘universe’: the Pokémon game franchise. Pokémon names are compared across six languages—Japanese\, English\, Mandarin\, Cantonese\, Korean\, and Russian. The results show that while languages have a tendency to encode the same attributes with sound symbolism\, they crucially also feature differences in sound symbol-ism that are rooted in language-specific grammar dependence. The Pokémon findings are significant to understanding how phonology interacts with the real world\, in the cueing of socioculturally-defined categories.

Indeed\, a detailed understanding of the molecular details of interactions between nanoparticles and biological nanosystems\, such as membranes or macromolecules is crucial for obtaining adequate information on mechanisms of action of nanomaterials as well as a perspective on the long-term effects of these materials and their possible toxicological outcomes. In this talk I will report on a new model that we are developing to understand and to predict the interactions between carbon-based nanomaterials and biological membranes using structure-based computational molecular modeling. A rationale on how nanoparticles of different sizes\, shape\, structure and chemical properties can affect the organization of cellular membranes is also presented. This critical information will help enable the “safe-by-design” production of engineered nanoparticles that are nontoxic or biocompatible\, and also allow for the design of antimicrobial nanoparticles for environmental and biomedical applications.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:The Enigmatic KIME: Time Complexity in Data Science
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: We will provide a constructive definition of “Big Biomedical/Health Data” and provide examples of the challenges\, algorithms\, processes\, and tools necessary to manage\, aggregate\, harmonize\, process\, and interpret such data. In data science\, time complexity frequently manifests as sampling incongruency\, heterogeneous scales\, and intricate dependencies. We will present the concept of 2D complex-time (kime) and illustrate how the kime-order (time) and kime-direction (phase) affect advanced predictive analytics and scientific inference based on Big Biomedical Data. Kime-representation solves the unidirectional arrows of time problems\, e.g.\, psychological arrow of time reflects the irrevocable past to future flow and thermodynamic arrow of time reflecting the relentless growth of entropy. Albeit kime-phase angles may not always be directly observable\, we will illustrate how they can be estimated and used to improve the resulting space-kime modeling\, trend forecasting\, and predictive data analytics. Simulated data\, clinical observations (e.g.\, neurodegenerative disorders)\, and multisource census-like datasets (e.g.\, UK Biobank) will be used to demonstrate time-complexity and inferential-uncertainty.\n\nBio: Ivo D.

SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:Exhibition Reception: Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the work of artists and designers featured in Have We Met?. Live DJ\, refreshments and performance titled Activating the Prussian Blue (Ping Pong/Parlor) Table\, Buster Simpson\, 2018.\n\nHave We Met: Dialogues on Memory and Desire draws inspiration from Ann Arbor’s legacy of social movements (Anti-War Movement\, Civil Rights Movements) and experimental art practices (The Once Group) from the late-1950s to the 1970s as its point of departure. It brings together archival materials and reproductions from the University of Michigan’s Labadie Collection and the Bentley Library in conjunction with radical artworks by diverse\, multi-generational artists and designers whose works are deeply influenced by the ideas of freedom and self-determination\; re-writing the canonical accounts of history\; and building contemporary culture and solidarity through collective action.\n\nAt a time when the idea of citizenship in the United States is being deeply challenged and redefined through horrific occurrences of gun violence and police brutality towards racialized and queer civilians and refugees\, this exhibition asks what role art institutions can play in building inclusive and vibrant creative spaces the 21st Century. Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire retraces and learns from models of collectivity and organizing mobilized by artists\, designers\, and cultural producers in the past and present as a lens to understand the contemporary moment and re-imagine the future.  It explores the complex relationships and at times overlapping and contested concerns between contemporary art\, design\, and social justice that continually influence and inform one another.\n\nArtists: Rudolf Baranik\, Stephanie Dinkins\, Emory Douglas\, Brendan Fernandes\, Chitra Ganesh\, Carole Harris\, Maren Hassinger\, Al Loving\, Josh MacPhee\, Native Art Department International\, Michele Oka Doner\, Yoko Ono\, Kameelah Janan Rasheed\, Martha Rosler\, Buster Simpson\, Gregory Sholette\, Leni Sinclair\, Stephanie Syjuco\, Graem Whyte\, and Zafos Xagoraris.\n\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra. \n\nPlease RSVP to reserve your place for this free event: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/opening-reception-have-we-met-dialogues-on-memory-and-desire-tickets-49847845247

SUMMARY:Performance:Jill Sobule
DESCRIPTION:Jill Sobule - Nostalgia Kills\n\n“Nostalgia can be wonderful and amazing. It’s OK to look back. But then you gotta get the fuck out of there.” So says singer-songwriter Jill Sobule\, explaining the theme of her new album\, Nostalgia Kills.\n\n \n\nOn Nostalgia Kills (out September 14 on Jill’s own Pinko Records)\, the woman hailed by The New York Times for making “grown-up music for an adolescent age” turns her warm wit and poet’s eye on herself more than ever before\, revisiting moments from throughout her life that made her into the person she is today. It’s an especially poignant look back at childhood — “exorcising some junior high school demons\,” as she puts it.\n\n\nLooking back is a new experience for Jill Sobule. Ever since she first caught mainstream attention with her 1995 song “I Kissed a Girl” — the first song about same-sex romance ever to crack the Billboard Top 20 (and no relation to the later Katy Perry tune) — she’s always pushed forward\, exploring new sounds and subject matter with each passing album and refusing to be pigeonholed by her early hits (which also include the ‘90s alt-rock anthem “Supermodel\,” featured in an iconic scene in the film Clueless).\n\n \n\nAlong the way\, Jill has shared stages with the likes of Billy Bragg\, Cyndi Lauper and Warren Zevon\, written music for TV and theater\, and been a pioneer in the art of crowdfunding\, raising so much money for her 2009 album California Years that a then-unknown startup called Kickstarter came to her for advice. She’s also been active in numerous social and political causes\, performing at prisons as part of Wayne Kramer’s Jail Guitar Doors project\, playing dates with Lady Parts Justice’s “Vagical Mystery Tour\,” and curating Monster Protest Jams Vol. 1\, featuring protest songs by Tom Morello\, Billy Bragg\, Boots Riley\, Amanda Palmer\, Jackson Browne and many other great artists — including Jill’s own “When They Say We Want Our America Back\, What the F#@k Do They Mean?”\, which traces the history of anti-immigrant sentiment in America.\n\n \n\nFor Nostalgia Kills\, Jill worked with her good friend\, Australian singer-songwriter Ben Lee\, to cull the album’s 11 songs from a collection of over 100\, representing nearly a decade’s worth of material accumulated since the release of California Years. In turning those songs into an album\, she received a little extra motivation from an unlikely source.\n\n \n\n“I was at an industry party\,” she recalls. “And I heard this total douche saying\, you know\, once someone reaches the age of 40\, they can’t write a good song. And I went up to him and I was like\, ‘You don’t know me\, but you’re an idiot.’”\n\n \n\nMaking it her mission to prove her new nemesis wrong\, Jill took the songs into Lee’s home studio in Los Angeles with a supporting cast of players that included John Doe (X)\, Wayne Kramer (The MC5)\, Petra Haden (That Dog)\, Roger Joseph Manning Jr. (Jellyfish)\, and Richard Barone (The Bongos). “This was done with a lot of friends\,” she says. “It was very organic.” Many of the final mixes even contain elements of the original demos\, recorded with various apps on Jill’s iPad.\n\n \n\nRight from the jump\, Nostalgia Kills proves that this songwriter\, despite being a few years north of 40\, is still at the peak of her powers. How many artists of any age can write a song like “I Don’t Wanna Wake Up\,” an Old Testament head trip inspired by a bad breakup\, the death of a parent\, and microdosing mushrooms? Let alone have the nerve to make it their album’s opening track?\n\n \n\nFrom there\, Nostalgia Kills explores its titular theme through a collection of songs that ponder the past without ever lapsing into easy sentimentality. “I Put My Headphones On\,” as catchy as anything in Jill’s catalog\, captures the cozy feeling of tuning out the outside world with a favorite record. “Almost Great” is a ukulele-laced ode to youthful brushes with success and adult battles with procrastination. “Forbidden Thoughts of Youth” is a beautifully rendered portrait of adolescent unrequited love\, as Jill looks back at her first gay crush (“an incredible combination of Marcia Brady and future meth-smoking biker chick”).\n\n \n\n“Headphones” and “Forbidden Thoughts” will be part of #Fuck7thGrade\, a one-woman show about “the worst year of my life\,” and just the latest of Jill’s many forays into theater. Nostalgia Kills features new versions of several of Jill’s best songs for the stage: “There’s Nothing I Can Do” is a defiant breakup anthem from the off-off-Broadway musical Prozak and the Platypus\, sung from the perspective of a rebellious 17-year-old girl. “25 Cents” is from Times Square\, a new musical based on the 1980 cult film of the same name — and Jill’s own memories of visiting New York City as a teenager\, back when the city was still “scary and fascinating and full of junkies.” And the gorgeous ballad “Tomorrow Is Breaking My Heart” is one of several original songs Jill wrote for a new adaptation of Yentl\, Isaac Bashevis Singer’s tale of gender-bending romance later made famous by Barbra Streisand’s film adaptation.\n\n \n\nThere are two versions of “Tomorrow Is Breaking” on Nostalgia Kills — a mournful duet with John Doe\, and a special bonus track version featuring an amateur musician named Nicholas Ford\, who made a pledge to the Nostalgia Kills Kickstarter campaign in which the prize was to sing a duet with Jill. “I decided to do it in a different style with a piano and he kicked ass\,” she says proudly of Nicholas’ crooning accompaniment.\n\n \n\nNostalgia Kills’ bonus tracks also include “The Donor Song\,” on which Jill gives shout-outs to her Kickstarter backers (including Avengers director and Buffy the Vampire Slayer creator Joss Whedon\, whom Jill calls “my personal lord and savior” because he donated at the highest level)\, as well as lovely covers of The Stairsteps’ soul classic “O-o-h Child” and “Don’t Let Us Get Sick\,” a heartbreakingly beautiful\, late-career ballad by Jill’s friend and mentor\, Warren Zevon\, with whom she tour shortly before his death in 2003. “He used to come out during my set to sing ‘I Kissed a Girl’ with me\,” Jill remembers. “He would always wink at me when we would sing ‘They can have their diamonds and we’ll have are pearls’ to let me know he got the clitoral reference.”\n\n \n\nFor all its graceful\, funny and heartbreaking explorations of awkward youth and grown-up regrets\, Nostalgia Kills is as of-the-moment as anything in Jill Sobule’s catalog. Through her own experiences\, she explores issues our society still collectively struggles with (LGBTQ rights\, teen mental health\, our unhealthy obsession with staying forever young) and gently skewers our tendency to dwell on the past at the expense of addressing the present. As she sings on the title track: “We look at ourselves in a long row of mirrors/We get smaller and smaller with each passing year/We have to keep moving or die.”
