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:Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection
DESCRIPTION:The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts\, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects\; bilingualism in Egypt\; books read by the Egyptian monks\; and the works of Shenoute the Great\, the most important author of Coptic literature.\n\nThis exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.\n\nJoin us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Deluge
DESCRIPTION:Five Channel Video Installation\n13 Minutes\, 27 Seconds.\n\nDeluge is a culmination of Mendel’s ten years of work on the Drowning World project\, shooting video and stills in thirteen different countries. It depicts a variety of individual stories\, positioned with a synchronous global narrative in a way that is both personally intimate and deeply political. In all his years of responding to floods and making many journeys he has shot a vast archive of video footage\, which is fully activated in this presentation for the first time.\n\nAbout Gideon Mendel and his Drowning World project:\nGideon Mendel came of age as a photographer in South Africa in the 1980’s and identified strongly as a ‘struggle photographer’. This marked him and his subsequent career has been notable for his engagement with three of the crucial political and social issues that have faced his generation. These are the struggle against apartheid\, HIV/AIDS in Africa and Climate Change.\n\nA leading contemporary photographer\, Gideon Mendel's intimate style of image making and long-term commitment to projects has earned him international recognition and many awards. He was shortlisted for the Prix Pictet Prize 2015 and recently has won both the inaugural Jackson Pollock Prize for Creativity and the Greenpeace Photo Award 2016.\n\nHis on-going project ‘Drowning World\, explores the human dimension of climate change by focusing on floods across geographical and cultural boundaries. By highlighting the personal impact of flooding he evokes our vulnerability to global warming questioning our sense of stability in the world.\n\nThe work began in 2007\, when Mendel photographed floods in the UK and in India within weeks of each other. He was deeply struck by the contrasting impact of these events\, and the shared experiences of those affected.\n\nSince then he has endeavoured to travel to flood zones around the world visiting Haiti (2008)\, Pakistan (2010)\, Australia (2011)\, Thailand (2011)\, Nigeria (2012)\, Germany (2013)\, The Philippines (2013)\, The UK (2014)\, India (2014)\, Brazil (2015)\, Bangladesh (2015)\, the USA (2015 and 2017) and France (2016 and 2018).\n\nAs the work progressed photographing floods became both a literal and allegorical means of documenting the tension between the personal and the global effects of climate change. Each location added has intensified the narrative impact of the endeavour.\n\nDrowning World now consists of four parallel and connected narrative elements: Submerged Portraits\, Flood Lines\, Watermarks\, and Deluge.

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:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s
DESCRIPTION:Can abstract art be about politics? In the early 1970s\, that question was hotly debated as artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. Many of those debates centered on bringing to light the roles that gender and race played in how “great modern art” was defined and assessed\, and on employing art to advance civil rights. Within this discourse\, abstraction had an especially fraught role. To many\, the decision by women artists and artists of color  to make abstract art seemed to represent a retreat from politics and protest: an abnegation of a commitment to civil rights and feminism. \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" presents large-scale work by four leading American artists—Helen Frankenthaler\, Sam Gilliam\, Al Loving\, and Louise Nevelson—who chose abstraction as a means of expression within the intense political climate of the early 1970s.\n\nLead support for \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender. Additional generous support is provided by the Robert and Janet Miller Fund and the University of Michigan Department of Political Science.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Biopsychology Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:Generation and manipulation of combinatorial connectivity for olfactory perception\n\nAnimals navigate complex and changing environments by combining instinct with memories of past experiences. The structures of neural circuits that represent sensory information for innate and learned interpretation are different from one another\, with innate interpretations generated by circuits with predictable wiring\, and flexible learned interpretations generated by circuits with unpredictable wiring. I will present the Clowney lab's progress in interrogating how neurons of the insect olfactory learning center acquire sparse and unpredictable olfactory inputs during development.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | Now We See It\, Now We Don't: How to Theorize Traditional Chinese Song-Drama
DESCRIPTION:This talk will attempt to bring premodern Chinese song-drama out of the straightjacket of Western terminology\, that is\, comedy vs. tragedy\, opera vs. drama\, role type vs. character\, music vs. voice\, etc. Instead\, it will seek to map new ways to think through traditional Chinese theatrical practices (playwrighting\, acting\, musicking\, staging\, audience participation\, etc.) in an effort to both historicize and globalize the modern scholarly discourse on Chinese theater. \n    \nPatricia Sieber is an Associate Professor of Chinese in the Department of East Asian Languages and Literatures at Ohio State University\, where she teaches courses on premodern Chinese drama and fiction\, the history of the book\, and translation studies. She is the author of \"Theaters of Desire: Authors\, Readers\, and the Reproduction of Early Chinese Song-Drama\, 1300-2000\" and is currently the lead editor of \"How to Read Chinese Drama.\" She has given talks in the US\, Europe\, Russia\, China\, Hong Kong\, and Taiwan and her work has appeared in journals\, books\, and encyclopedias in English\, Chinese\, and German.\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at least 2 weeks in advance of this event. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange. Email us at chinese.studies@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Universal Declaration of Human Rights: Linocuts by Meredith Stern
DESCRIPTION:On December 10\, 1948\, in the aftermath of the devastation of World War II\, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a roadmap to guarantee the rights of every individual everywhere. The complete Declaration is comprised of a Preamble and 30 Articles. In honor of the 60th anniversary of this document\, we are exhibiting 14 Articles in the form of illustrated prints by Meredith Stern. These contemporary prints are intended both to make people aware of this rights roadmap and to show its urgent relevance in our contemporary political moment.\n\nMeredith Stern is an artist currently based in Providence\, RI\, and a member of the Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative\, a decentralized network of 30 artists committed to social\, environmental\, and political engagement. Stern created a total of 28 sets of these linocut prints in 2017\, of which one is held in the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the Special Collections Research Center.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic History: Transport Cost in Precolonial Africa
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nThis paper develops a GIS raster of transport cost in precolonial Africa\, a fundamental constraint on long-term political and economic development. The technology set includes walking and canoe travel. The end product is a Cell-Cost raster that combines walking speeds over a variety of terrains (using the Waldo Tobbler Hiking Function as the vertical factor of a DEM elevation projection) and canoe speeds along rivers of different velocities (using The Major River Basins of the World\, classified by mean annual discharge and estimates of river velocity developed from afriv). As a demonstration\, the Path Distance Tool in ArcGIS is used to estimate the least-cost travel time from anywhere on the continent to the nearest “coastal” slave port between 1500 and 1850. The resulting estimates of travel time are used to identify the effects of the international slave trade shocks on African labor institutions (slavery)\, family structure (polygyny)\, agricultural technology (plow) and religious belief (High God). Simple estimates of straight-line distance are shown to have no explanatory power in this context.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Gravitational Waves: A New Window to the Universe
DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT\nRecent announcements of the first ever detections of gravitational waves from colliding black holes and neutron stars have launched a new era of gravitational wave astrophysics. I will describe the science\, technology\, and human story behind these discoveries that provide a completely new window into some of the most violent and warped events in the Universe.\n\nBIO\nNergis Mavalvala is the Curtis and Kathleen Marble Professor of Astrophysics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the Associate Head of the Department of Physics. \n\nShe is a physicist whose research focuses on the detection of gravitational waves from violent events in the cosmos that warp and ripple the fabric of spacetime. She is a leading figure in the scientific team that in early 2016 announced the first direct detection of gravitational waves from colliding black holes using the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) detectors. This breakthrough and subsequent observations have ushered in a new era of astrophysics\, opening a window into the violent and warped universe not visible with light. \n\nIn addition to her work on developing technologies for gravitational wave detectors since her graduate student years in the 1990s\, Mavalvala has also conducted pioneering experiments to generate exotic quantum states of light and to optically cool and trap mirrors to enable observation of quantum effects that are usually manifested in the microscopic world in human-scale objects. \n\nShe is the recipient of numerous awards and honors\, including a MacArthur Fellowship in 2010 and election to the National Academy of Sciences in 2017. Mavalvala earned a BA in physics and astronomy from Wellesley College and a PhD in physics from MIT.\n\nABOUT THE LECTURESHIP\nThe M. Alten Gilleo Distinguished Lectureship in Optical Sciences and Optoelectronics brings the world’s top researchers in the field of optics and optoelectronics to Michigan. The Lectureship was established by Anita Gilleo (BS Lit ‘44) in honor of her brother\, Mathias Alten Gilleo (BSE EE ‘44). Alten Gilleo made significant contributions to optics and solid state physics throughout his career\, and worked in some of the most advanced research labs of his time.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:DAAS Diasporic Dialogues with Colin Dayan (Vanderbilt University)
DESCRIPTION:Colin Dayan\nRobert Penn Warren Professor in the Humanities\nHer areas of study include American literature\, English and French Caribbean Literatures\, Haitian historiography\, and American legal scholarship. In A Rainbow for the Christian West: The Poetry of René Depestre (1977)\, she introduced to an English-speaking audience Depestre’s early epic poem about the vodou gods and their journey to the American South.  With Fables of Mind: An Inquiry into Poe’s Fiction (1987)\, she turned to Poe’s fictions as complicated critiques of the traditions of romance and the gothic.  Emphasizing a Calvinist Poe rather than a transcendental one\, she argued that his studies of mind (reinvigorating Locke\, Newton\, Edwards\, and Swift) are not anachronistically modern but have simply been misread outside their natural context of early American writing. Haiti\, History and the Gods (1998) tells the story of colonial Haiti from the composite perspectives of legal and religious texts\, letters\, fiction\, and her own knowledge of the country.  \n\nHer recent books are The Story of Cruel and Unusual (2007)\, which exposes the paradox of the eighth amendment to the Constitution\, showing that in the United States\, cycles of jurisprudence safeguard rights and then justify their revocation\; and The Law is a White Dog: How Legal Rituals Make and Unmake Persons (2011)\, which examines how the fictions and language of law turn persons (and other legal non-entities like dogs\, ghosts\, slaves\, felons\, and terror suspects) into “rightless objects.” The Law is a White Dog was selected by Choice as one of top-25 \"Outstanding Academic Books\" for 2011. With dogs at the edge of life will be published in December 2015.\n\nOver the past ten years\,she has written widely on prison rights\, the legalities of torture\, canine profiling\, animal law\, and the racial contours of US practices of punishment for The Boston Review\, The New York Times\, The London Review of Books\, and Al Jazeera America\, where she is a contributing editor.\n\nHonors include election to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences\; and fellowships from the Danforth Foundation\, the National Endowment for the Humanities\, the Guggenheim Foundation\, the Social Science Research Council\, the Davis Center for Historical Studies and the Program in Law and Public Affairs\, Princeton.\n\n\nFilm screening of  her presentation/monologue “Legal Sorcery\,” Kassel documenta 14:  http://www.documenta14.de/en/calendar/23458/legal-sorcery

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Seminar Series: Frederi Viens\, Professor\, Department of Statistics and Probability\, Michigan State University
DESCRIPTION:Abstrtact: We consider the class of all stationary Gaussian processes. When the spectral density is parametrically explicit\, we define a Generalized Method of Moments estimator that satisfies consistency and asymptotic normality\, using the Breuer-Major theorem which applies to long-memory processes. This result is applied to the joint estimation of the three parameters of a stationary fractional Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (fOU) process driven for all Hurst parameters. For general processes observed at fixed discrete times\, no matter what the memory length\, we use state-of-the-art Malliavin calculus tools to prove BerryEsseen-type and other speeds of convergence in total variation\, for estimators based on power variations. This is joint work with Luis Barboza (U. Costa Rica)\, Khalifa es-Sebaiy (U. Kuwait)\, and Soukaina Douissi (U. Cadi Ayyad\, Morocco). Time permitting\, we will reveal some ideas from ongoing work with Fatimah Alsharani (MSU) and Philip Ernst (Rice U.\, Houston\, Texas) on hypothesis testing for Gaussian processes extending modeling to second-chaos processes\, with applications to sea-level rise.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Nam Center Colloquium Series | Mahan\, Baekje\, and the Rise of States in South Korea
DESCRIPTION:Baekje\, the first state-level society in South Korea\, has long had its origins explained as the result of ‘influence’ of one kind or another\, whether from China\, the northern kingdom of Goguryeo\, or even Japan. By exploring Baekje’s archaeological remains\, however\, we can clearly see that the kingdom’s social and economic organization has deep roots in local Mahan cultural traditions. The Mahan\, a society or group of societies that has largely defied traditional classification\, were politically complex but not centralized\, and appear to have valued autonomy and alliance over the rigid structures of the state. Baekje began as a single Mahan polity and then expanded its territory out from the Han river\, while the Mahan cultures further south maintained their way of life throughout the Hanseong Baekje period. \n\nThis talk presents new data on Mahan\, Baekje\, and the relationship between them through a geochemical analysis of their pottery. Pottery is the most common type of artifact found at sites\, was used by members of every social class\, and encodes a tremendous amount of information about the people who made it. The idea of ‘influence’ can be deconstructed into specific relics of real\, long-distance material exchange\, and put in the context of the daily life of large Mahan and Baekje settlements. Both archaeological cultures were cosmopolitan for their time\, active in trade and diplomacy\, but were also firmly locally situated and at the centers of their own universe. \n\nRory Walsh is a Korea Foundation Postdoctoral Fellow at the Nam Center for Korean Studies. Her research on ancient state formation in East Asia includes Three Kingdoms-era Korea and the Xia-Shang-Zhou transition in central China\, using ceramic geochemistry and archaeobotany to investigate political economy and social structure. She received her PhD from the University of Oregon\, and is currently working on a book based on her dissertation: “Ceramic Specialization and Exchange in Complex Societies: A Compositional Analysis of Pottery from Mahan and Baekje in Southwestern Korea.”
