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. The face of each one-of-a-kind work of art expresses happiness\, surprise\, mischief\, or a free spirit. Every sculpture is glazed and fired many times\, building up a rich\, textured colored surface. Holding an MFA from the U-M Penny W. 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. These drawings contribute to her personal vocabulary of shapes and gestures\, and she often digitally combines them with older paintings to become starting points of new works.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:David Cope: Player of Invisible Keys
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the work of Michigan poet David Cope\, once described by Allen Ginsberg as one of the \"leading lights of the next generation.\" This exhibit draws on drafts\, proofs\, and other documents from Cope's archive to offer a glimpse into his poetic and editorial process.\n\nWorking most often in the Objectivist tradition of Charles Reznikoff\, Carl Rakosi\, and George Oppen\, David Cope has a particular gift for descriptive detail and for juxtaposing the the intimacy of daily life with commentary on the arc of current events and the particularity of personal relationships with the universality of human experience. He received the Pushcart Prize for “The Crash” in 1977 and an award in literature from the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters for On The Bridge (1986). Additionally\, for more than forty years\, Cope has edited and published a small press literary magazine\, The Big Scream\, providing a venue for more than 200 poets\, including both big names names and younger\, lesser-known poets. Earlier this year\, Ghost Pony Press released Cope’s eighth poetry collection: The Invisible Keys: New and Selected Poems.\n\nOn view during Special Collections Research Center hours: Monday-Friday\, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Art Exhibit: Nancy Blum\, RC Class of '85
DESCRIPTION:RC alumna '85 Nancy Blum returns to East Quad to exhibit her drawings of flowers and to deliver the 10/19 Robertson Lecture on her public art installations. \n\nExcerpted from her artist statement:\nMy large‐scale works on paper\, rendered in ink\, colored pencil\, gouache and graphite\, portray a fantastic realm in which flowers own the space. I use a variety of 16th and 17th-century botanical images\, from Chinese plum blossoms to German botanicals\, as starting points for each drawing. Rather than alluding to an actual landscape\, I instead combine species of plants in the same drawing that would not customarily exist together in nature. Obsessive handwork creates intricate layers of visual information to be discovered over time and\, in this way\, the works become a seductive meditation for the viewer.\n\nI use botanical motifs to create images that are universally associated with growth and continuity. My deeper intent is to conjure the ‘flower’ as an active\, forceful agent\, subverting a culturally conditioned point of view that often deems the ephemeral and the organic as less powerful and of limited value. My ‘wonderland’ presents a view of life that pulses with expansive fecundity\; hopefully\, it also propels comprehension of the connectedness of all beings within the limitless energy operating throughout this world.\n\nWhen making art for public spaces\, I strive to invest these commissions with similar content\, while bringing beauty and a high level of craft to a particular environment. As I conceive and develop each piece\, I respond to the specifics of the surrounding architecture\, ecosystem\, and community in an effort to compellingly meet the needs of the site. My studio practice\, in turn\, is invigorated by opportunities to design work in relationship to an existing framework\, and the special demands and responsibilities this process entails.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Ford Security Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Tied aid and Development\n(This is not a public event)\n\nDonors have long engaged the private sector by tying foreign aid\, forcing recipients to buy from donor countries. But recently\, donors have partnered with private money on a larger scale\, making tied aid an important area of interest. Tied aid has long been criticized for serving donor companies more than the poor\, but tied aid is subject to legal agreements that domestic courts can enforce. Tied aid may thus reduce the moral hazard of aid\, thereby increasing compliance with aid agreements and development. Yet few have statistically compared the effects of tied and untied aid on development. In data from 136 developing countries between 1975 and 2014\, tied aid reduced economic growth more than untied aid\, even after accounting for potential endogeneity. Tied aid also reduced the likelihood of compliance\, in contrast with the moral hazard argument. Donors interested in development should therefore exercise caution when partnering with the private sector.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral & Experimental Economics (SBEE): Intentions for Doing Good Matter for Doing Well: The (Negative) Signaling Value of Prosocial Incentives
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nMany firms consider prosocial initiatives to be an effective tool to motivate workers. However\, despite some initial supportive evidence\, little is known about when and how prosocial incentives work. Our field experiment shows that the instrumental use of prosocial incentives to increase effort can backfire. The negative effect is particularly strong for performance-based prosocial incentives\, which are\, by construction\, more instrumental than unconditional incentives\, and for non-prosocial workers\, who do not care to support the cause. These findings highlight some serious limitations of prosocial incentives: firms' perceived intentions and pool of employees will be crucial for their effectiveness.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:My Name is Afrika: Keorapetse Kgositsile\, Black Arts Movement\, and Polyglot Internationalism
DESCRIPTION:South African national poet laureate Keorapetse Kgositsile’s work is firmly anchored in the Tswana oral and literary traditions shaped by a strong sense of community\, customs and culture. I am interested in how he invigorates those traditions when in exile in the black diaspora (1962 – 1975)\, making his work stand out in the many black international journals and magazines he published in\, thus necessitating a different lens of reading those print cultures previously delineated as African American. I demonstrate how he extends and interweaves the indigenous South African resource base with diasporic artistic traditions\, tasking us to rethink genealogies of African knowledge production\, their generative value and currency in the black radical imagination\, and their translation and influence in black internationalism. My mission is to show how Kgositsile’s transatlantic engagements brought his black diaspora contemporaries into locution with a distinctly Tswana consciousness and epistemologies\, transforming his interlocutors and the vision of their social movements. This way I establish a model of reading South Africa’s relationship with African Americans that eschews a “counterculture to modernity” born in the Northern Atlantic\, rebutting a vertical North to South influence common in such transnational readings.\n\nUhuru Phalafala (PhD\, University of Cape Town) is a lecturer in the English department at Stellenbosch University. She is the 2018 University of Michigan African Presidential Scholar\, and 2019 African Humanities Program fellow. Her research interests are transnationalism\, black internationalism\, translation\, decoloniality\, and world literatures. She currently heads a Mellon-funded research project ‘Recovering Subterranean Archives’\, which investigates South African culture in exile\, with the ultimate goal of repatriating and republishing it. She is currently working on her book project Crossing Borders Without Leaving\, a critical biography of South African writer-in-exile Keorapetse Kgositsile.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LOOK 101: Seeing Art in an Instagram World
DESCRIPTION:Geared toward undergraduate students and focusing on the current exhibitions at the Institute for the Humanities\, this contemporary series of discussions offers a fresh take on the basics of looking and evaluating art in the gallery and how it’s organized\, making the connection from the traditional “white cube gallery” to iGen visual worlds like Facebook and Instagram. Today: How to look at the art of Luzinterruptus with Institute for the Humanities curator Amanda Krugliak.\n\nAbout Luzinterruptus:\n\nThis October\, the Institute for the Humanities is shutting down Liberty Street near U-M campus. We’re going to reuse thousands of discarded books\, turning them into an illuminated pathway for “Literature vs. Traffic\,” a large-scale art installation by Spanish undercover art collective Luzinterruptus. \n\nAnn Arbor joins Toronto\, New York\, and Melbourne\, as we feature--for one night only--the brilliance of 10\,000 books and thousands of LED lights. What was just a street will become a beautiful installation\, as we bring the power of art\, education\, the written word\, and free thought to the entire Ann Arbor community by essentially “paving” Liberty St. with thousands of glowing books. \n\nThis is a grass-roots project and your participation is essential! \n\nWant to play a part in this amazing campus and community-wide project? We need: \n\nVolunteers: Community and campus groups and individuals to volunteer to work with the artists to prep & attach lights to books (Oct 15-23)\, and the day of the event (Oct 23)\; \n\nDonations: Books that would otherwise be recycled or thrown away\; \n\nVisitors: Come view the extraordinary installation\, and help us extend the life of a book by taking one (or more) home (Oct. 23 5-11pm). \n\nSmall quantities of books can be dropped off at the Institute for the Humanities office at 202 S. Thayer. We can also pick up larger quantities of books. Read more on our website at www.lsa.umich.edu/humanities\, or email luzinterruptus@umich.edu to volunteer\, schedule a book pick-up\, or with questions.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Dark Matter and New Physics at Neutrino Experiments
DESCRIPTION:In the past decade\, neutrino experiments have emerged as powerful tools in the search for new physics beyond just oscillations. In these fixed-target experiments\, new particles (e.g. dark photons\, millicharged particles\, light scalars\, etc.) can be produced in the neutrino beamline and propagate into the downstream detector where they induce signals via scattering or decay. These experiments are capable of probing models of light (MeV-scale) dark matter and can be considered complementary to more traditional direct and indirect searches. In the first half of this talk\, I will describe the sensitivity of existing LSND measurements and future data from the JSNS2 experiment to two dark matter models. In particular\, I will show that JSNS2 can rule out new parameter space for dark photon models and that LSND severely constrains a recent explanation of the 3.5 keV Galactic Center excess. For the second half of the talk\, I will discuss the recently updated MiniBooNE neutrino oscillation analysis and possible new physics explanations for the long-standing low energy excess. Through model-independent\, kinematic arguments\, I will show that many new physics explanations for the excess are incompatible with the available data. \n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:U-M Program in Creativity and Consciousness Studies Consciousness Next! Series: Dr. Julia Mossbridge
DESCRIPTION:The presentation will feature examples of precognitive experiences—where an individual has knowledge about the future that s/he could not have obtained via “normal” channels—and will cover what makes a precognition something other than coincidence. Dr. Julia Mossbridge\, who contends that receiving accurate information about future events is neither unscientific nor uncommon\, will explain how the scientific evidence for precognition\, combined with what we know about consciousness and the nature of time\, makes precognition a reasonable phenomenon to investigate further through research and application. \n\nMossbridge is a fellow at the Institute of Noetic Sciences and a visiting scholar at Northwestern University in the Department of Psychology. Her book Transcendent Mind\, published by the American Psychological Association in 2017\, is one of the first academic books to examine paranormal experiences (nonlocal\, physically transcendent dimensions of consciousness). Her research focus is precognition and its ramifications for creativity and healing\, the time-consciousness relationship\, and further capacities of consciousness that are coherent with an emergent\, more integral conception of mind. \n\nThe U-M Program in Creativity and Consciousness Studies (PCCS) is directed by music professor and consciousness theorist Ed Sarath. It brings together colleagues from a wide range of fields to explore creativity and its underpinnings in consciousness and ramifications thereof for emergent models of education\, spirituality\, sustainability\, social justice\, and peace. \n\nThe PCCS Consciousness Next! series examines a range of phenomena and ideas that unite cutting-edge scientific research and age-old spiritual wisdom. \n\nhttp://smtd.umich.edu/pccs.

SUMMARY:Performance:The Dustbowl Revival
DESCRIPTION:The Dustbowl Revival is a Venice\, California-based collective that merges old-school bluegrass\, gospel\, jug-band\, swamp blues\, and the hot swing of the 1930’s to form a spicy roots cocktail. Known for their inspired live sets\, The Dustbowl Revival boldly brings together many styles of traditional American music. Imagine Old Crow Medicine Show meeting Louis Armstrong’s Hot Seven Band in New Orleans or Bob Dylan and Fats Waller jamming with Mumford & Sons on a front porch in 1938. Growing steadily from a small string band playing up and down the West Coast (hundreds shows in the last two years)\, DBR has blossomed into a traveling collective featuring instrumentation that often includes fiddle\, mandolin\, trombone\, clarinet\, trumpet\, banjo\, accordion\, tuba\, pedal steel\, drums\, guitars\, a bass made from a canoe oar\, harmonica\, and plenty of washboard and kazoo for luck. Nashville (not Roanoke) Americana-folk band Roanoke opens.
