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.

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.

This group show of jewelry and ornaments includes the work of Roger Martin, who tackled the subject of a raven by relying on planes and shadow lines to imbue the surfaces of the bird with personality. Another one of the seven artists, Lorraine Kolasa, picked up the old fashioned art of tatting, then cast tiny pieces of her handmade lace into sterling silver jewelry. Michael Nashef, who spent half his life in war-torn Lebanon, has created a series of innovative vessels and brooches. Other artists included in this exhibit are Kim Cridler, Roger Smith, Renee Zettle-Sterling and Ruth Taubman, whose unmatched exuberance of color and 36 years of work and business innovation, place her jewelry firmly on the national stage.

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.

This exhibit provides a platform to begin understanding the effects of rising sea levels along the coasts of Indonesia, Bangladesh, The Netherlands, Italy and the United States.

By the end of the century oceans are predicted to rise between .3 and 2.5 meters, which will result in major flooding in coastal cities around the world. The Sinking Cities Project aims to document this inundation through the stories of residents and the changing landscape of their cities.

This photo and video exhibit was produced by Marcin Szczepanski, visual communications director at Michigan Engineering, and Frank Sedlar, Michigan Engineering alumnus.

Join us for an exhibit opening event on November 16th, 4:00-7:00 p.m., in the Clark Library.

Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection (December 5, 2018 8:30am) https://events.umich.edu/event/56679 56679-13960713@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, December 5, 2018 8:30am
Location: Hatcher Graduate Library
Organized By: University Library

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.

This 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.

Join us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

Deluge 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.

About Gideon Mendel and his Drowning World project:
Gideon 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.

A 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.

His 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.

The 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.

Since 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).

As 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.

Drowning World now consists of four parallel and connected narrative elements: Submerged Portraits, Flood Lines, Watermarks, and Deluge.

Exhibition | Urban Biographies, Ancient and Modern (December 5, 2018 9:00am) https://events.umich.edu/event/52176 52176-12520887@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, December 5, 2018 9:00am
Location: Kelsey Museum of Archaeology
Organized By: Kelsey Museum of Archaeology

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.

This 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?

Abstraction, Color, and Politics in the Early 1970s (December 5, 2018 11:00am) https://events.umich.edu/event/53719 53719-13452843@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, December 5, 2018 11:00am
Location: Museum of Art
Organized By: University of Michigan Museum of Art (UMMA)

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.

Lead 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.

CREES Noon Lecture. Class, Culture, and the "Gastarbeiters": Contested Meanings of Labor Migration in Socialist Yugoslavia (December 5, 2018 12:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/54146 54146-13530689@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, December 5, 2018 12:00pm
Location: Weiser Hall
Organized By: Center for Russian, East European, and Eurasian Studies

In 1972, famous Zagreb-based film director Krsto Papić released his documentary “Special Trains,” which accompanies Yugoslav migrant workers on their journey from Zagreb to Germany. The film ends with a scene showing the migrants in the basement of Munich central station, where they are addressed by the number of their work contracts and no longer by their names. This short documentary encapsulates the ambivalences of labor migration from Yugoslavia. It was the only socialist country allowing its people to take work in the capitalist west, which by many was hailed as a sign of its openness. Yet, the export of workers from the presumed socialist paradise also provoked critical reflections about class inequality in the country. This talk will present the ambivalent and shifting representations of “gastarbeiters” in political and public discourses in socialist Yugoslavia since the 1960s. It seems that eventually the state failed to manage the semantic – and social – contradictions connected with migration. The focus will be on the problem of representations of emigration in sending countries, which receives much less attention than the question of immigration.

Ulf Brunnbauer is director of the Leibniz Institute for East and Southeast European Studies in Regensburg and professor of Southeast and East European history at the University of Regensburg. After studies in Graz, Vienna, Moscow, and Sofia, he received a PhD from the University of Graz (Austria) in 1999 and a habilitation from the Free University of Berlin in 2006. He works mainly on the social history of the Balkans in the 19th and 20th centuries. One of his last books is “Globalizing Southeastern Europe. Emigrants, America and the State Since the Late 19th Century” (Lexington, 2016).

HET Brown Bag | Cosmology with Sub-MeV Thermal Relics (December 5, 2018 12:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/58101 58101-14424582@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, December 5, 2018 12:00pm

Organized By: HET Brown Bag Series

The nature of dark matter (DM) is unknown, with a vast array of possibilities able to account for the missing mass of the universe. A predictive subset of DM models has DM in thermal equilibrium with Standard Model particles in the early universe. A well-known example of this is the Weakly-Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP) with an electroweak-scale mass. However, as direct searches for WIMP-nucleus interactions set stronger and stronger limits, attention has turned to less well-explored DM candidates. Sub-MeV thermal relics, in particular, have received little attention, in part due to the apparently stringent bounds from astrophysics and cosmology. For example, such particles contribute to the energy density of the universe at the time of nucleosynthesis and recombination. The resulting constraints on extra degrees of freedom typically exclude even the simplest of such dark sectors. I will describe the physics that leads to these bounds and show that if a sub-MeV dark sector entered equilibrium with the Standard Model after neutrino-photon decoupling, these constraints are alleviated. This scenario naturally arises in theories of neutrino mass generation through the spontaneous breaking of lepton number. Dark matter relic abundance in these models independently motivates the MeV scale. This scenario will be decisively tested by future measurements of the cosmic microwave background and large scale structure of the universe.

Location: Michigan League
Organized By: Confucius Institute at the University of Michigan

During the first decades of the twelfth century, the Song Dynasty in China built a vibrant world of art, entertainment and music that nobles, literati, and commoners of the time would produce and consume. How and why such an urbanized and diverse music culture emerged is one of the main topics having been researched and discussed. This presentation examines available historical data on the Song Dynasty music and music culture, explaining the roots and forces that generated vibrant music developments.

About the speaker:

Huang Yiou is Assistant Professor in Music College at Shanghai Normal University in China, where she teaches courses on Chinese music history. Her research focuses on the period of the Song Dynasty Music between the 10th and 13th century. She was a visiting scholar of the Center for Chinese Studies of the University of Michigan in 2010.

During social interactions, people influence each other in a variety of subtle and overt ways—for example, through their tone of voice, nonverbal behaviors, and facial expressions. In this talk, I will describe a particular case of social influence—physiological linkage—which occurs when one person’s physiological response predicts another person’s physiological response at a future time point. First, I will present a theoretical framework for understanding how physiological linkage occurs and the psychological inferences that can be drawn from it. Next, I will describe a set of studies examining physiological linkage alongside dyadic behaviors, group outcomes, and country-level measures of social relationships. Across these studies, I will show that linkage is conditional and occurs when people are socially attuned to one another. Finally, I will discuss the importance of physiological linkage for understanding dyadic and group behavior, as well as implications of these findings for health and well-being.

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.

Meredith 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.

Japan is arguably the first postindustrial society to embrace the prospect of human-robot coexistence. Over the past decade, Japanese humanoid robots designed for use in homes, hospitals, offices, and schools have become celebrated in mass and social media throughout the world. In Robo sapiens japanicus, Jennifer Robertson casts a critical eye on press releases and public relations videos that misrepresent robots as being as versatile and agile as their science fiction counterparts. An ethnography and sociocultural history of governmental and academic discourse of human-robot relations in Japan, this book explores how actual robots—humanoids, androids, and animaloids—are “imagineered” in ways that reinforce the conventional sex/gender system and political-economic status quo. In addition, Robertson interrogates the notion of human exceptionalism as she considers whether “civil rights” should be granted to robots. Similarly, she juxtaposes how robots and robotic exoskeletons reinforce a conception of the “normal” body with a deconstruction of the much-invoked Theory of the Uncanny Valley.

Attendees will have the chance to win a free copy of the book! There will be at least 5 winners. You must be present to win.

While the march towards achieving indirectly driven iner-tial confinement fusion (ICF) at the National Ignition Facil-ity has made great progress, experiments show that mul-tidimensional effects dominate implosion performance. Low mode implosion symmetry and hydrodynamic insta-bilities seeded by capsule mounting features are two lim-iting factors for implosion performance. These factors have a sizeable impact on ICF performance due to the high convergences needed for high fusion gains. Physics models in the codes that are “good enough” at low con-vergences may not be accurate enough for high conver-gence ICF implosions. When applying large complex simu-lations to ICF problems, one may ask “what is the domain of validity for the models that make up the simulations.” A major challenge in high energy density science is code or model validation due to the integrated nature of ex-periments and the extreme experimental conditions. De-signing experiments to isolate and validate models is im-portant, as well as obtaining data to determine the confi-dence in the models as one moves to parameters where experimental data does not exist. This presentation will discuss the challenges, a framework for validating models, and the extrapolation beyond experimental data.

About the Speaker: Dr. John Kline received a BS at the U. of South Florida in 1995 and a PhD in Plasma Physics from West Virginia U. in 2002, focusing on ion heating in Helicon plasma sources. In 2002, he joined Los Alamos National Lab investigating laser plasma interactions in the context of ICF. Starting in 2008, Dr. Kline became involved in the national ICF program at the National Ignition Facility and later as a campaign leader. He conducted some of the first experiments on NIF after the initial completion of the facility studying hohlraum radiation drive and laser coupling to gas filled hohlraums. He has also been involved experiments covering a wide range of topics in High Energy Density Science (HEDS) including radiation transport, hydrodynamic instabilities, and electron heat transport. Dr. Kline has over 200 publications and is a Fellow of the American Physical Society. Dr. Kline is currently the LANL ICF program manager.

Department Colloquium | The Trouble with Quantum Physics, and Why It Matters (December 5, 2018 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/56854 56854-14014877@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, December 5, 2018 4:00pm

Organized By: Department of Physics

Quantum physics is arguably the most successful scientific theory ever devised. It explains an enormous variety of natural phenomena to an extraordinary degree of accuracy — everything from semiconductors to the Sun itself. Yet there is a problem: it's unclear what this immensely fruitful theory says about reality. What is going on in the world of quantum physics? Why does "measurement" play a special role in the theory? Is it really impossible to talk about what's happening to atoms and subatomic particles when we're not looking at them? For many years, the standard answer to questions like this was to "shut up and calculate," to ignore these issues and simply use quantum physics to predict the outcomes of experiments. There was also a historical myth that went along with this answer, a myth that said Einstein had once worried about these questions, but he was shown the error of his ways by the great Danish physicist Niels Bohr. Yet that myth is simply untrue, and these thorny quantum paradoxes are far more important than most physicists once believed. In this talk, I'll explain the puzzles at the heart of quantum physics, why they matter, and what really went down between Einstein and Bohr 90 years ago.

The Unfinished Quest for the Meaning of Quantum Physics (Basic Books, 2018) is a "thorough, illuminating exploration of the most consequential controversy raging in modern science," according to the New York Times. The Washington Post called it "splendid", and Science dubbed Adam "a riveting storyteller". Adam has also written for the BBC, NPR, Scientific American, NOVA, New Scientist, and other science media outlets. He recorded a video series with the BBC, and has appeared on numerous radio shows and podcasts.

Title: Exploiting Decomposable Structure to Design Better Algorithms for Solving Integer Programs

Abstract
Optimization problems in which some or all of the variables are constrained to take integer values are of broad applicability in a wide range of fields, from medicine and healthcare to banking and finance to environmental management and conservation. Over recent decades, exact algorithms for their solution have become faster and more efficient, culminating in a variety of commercial software platforms and public domain codes that provide exceptional capability for solving practical problems to optimality. However, this seems to have only increased the appetite of practitioners to solve ever-larger problems, which challenge the state-of-the-art. In this talk, we bring together two apparently disparate observations: (i) many practical problems have decomposable structure and (ii) despite the enormous strides in solution algorithms, one key element common to all of them, namely, the branching rule, has remained largely untouched since it was first presented in the 1960's. Yet the branching rule defines how the search space is divided in the "divide-and-conquer" paradigm that forms the basis of all exact algorithms; it is central to the algorithm. Here, we will describe a new idea for exploiting decomposable structure in problems to derive alternative, powerful, new branching rules. These rules are demonstrated to speed up commercial solvers by orders of magnitude, on two classes of problems having different characteristics. The potential to generalize these ideas will also be discussed.

Author's Forum Presents: "Transformations of Ovid in Late Antiquity," A Conversation with Ian Fielding and Peggy McCracken (December 5, 2018 5:30pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/54061 54061-13521825@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, December 5, 2018 5:30pm
Location: Hatcher Graduate Library
Organized By: The College of Literature, Science, and the Arts

Ian Fielding (classical studies) and Peggy McCracken (French, women's studies, comparative literature) discuss Fielding's new book "Transformations of Ovid in Late Antiquity" followed by Q & A.

About the book:
Ovid could be considered the original poet of late antiquity. In his exile poetry, he depicts a world in which Rome has become a distant memory, a community accessible only through his imagination. This, Ovid claimed, was a transformation as remarkable as any he had recounted in his Metamorphoses. Ian Fielding's book shows how late antique Latin poets referred to Ovid's experiences of isolation and estrangement as they reflected on the profound social and cultural transformations taking place in the fourth, fifth and sixth centuries AD. There are detailed new readings of texts by major figures such as Ausonius, Paulinus of Nola, Boethius and Venantius Fortunatus. For these authors, Fielding emphasizes, Ovid was not simply a stylistic model, but an important intellectual presence. Ovid's fortunes in late antiquity reveal that poetry, far from declining into irrelevance, remained a powerful mode of expression in this fascinating period.
