SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Image Vessels: Blown Glass
DESCRIPTION:Sculptor Herb Babcock creates both monumental and human-scale work using metal\, glass and stone. In the early years of the American Studio Glass Movement (1974-1984) Babcock’s sculptural and painterly expression utilized the vessel format. By layering color — both mass and line — between gathers of clear\, molten glass\, the full compositions are viewed through the vessel as three-dimensional. Babcock is Professor Emeritus\, College for Creative Studies. He was Section Chair of the Glass Department where he taught for 40 years. He lives in Ann Arbor and built a new studio near U-M north campus in 2016.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Impressions in Pastel
DESCRIPTION:Sharon Will’s commitment to painting is to capture the simple\, everyday beauty around her in her native Michigan and beyond. She is passionate about painting plein air (outdoors) whenever possible\, as she feels the direct observation from life is the best teacher to truly see the subtleties of light and color in nature. Working on sanded paper\, her process begins with a pastel and alcohol/mineral spirits under-painting wash to establish value and color. Soft pastel is applied in layers\, often in contrasting color and temperatures for vibrancy. Over her 35-year career in painting\, Will has won numerous national awards. She also operates a custom framing business from her home/studio in Washington Township and teaches occasional workshops.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Mystery Train: Oil on Linen
DESCRIPTION:Gregg Chadwick grew up with the rails of America in his blood. His grandfather Arthur Desch stoked coal in steam engines before becoming a train engineer on the Jersey Central Line. At family gatherings in Chadwick’s grandparent’s home\, his aunts and cousins played music to the rhythms of the trains outside. From Junior Parker\, Elvis Presley\, Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash\, to arts writers and directors Greil Marcus and Jim Jarmusch\, the enduring mythos of America and its legacy has been wrapped up in the blues notes of the song “Mystery Train”. Chadwick’s current series of paintings\, Mystery Train\, is steeped in the powerful echoes of those machine days.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:she was here\, once
DESCRIPTION:The mobility and displacement of the Black body\, from port to holding cell\, to ward and out\, is a history that is embedded in our communities socially\, culturally and geographically. Alluding to feelings of pain\, otherness\, power and triumph\, \"she was here\, once\" features work that illustrates a moment of remembrance and reflection on the women who have roamed these spaces before us.\n\nIn summer 2018\, artist Nastassja Swift organized a collaborative workshop and public performance in her home city of Richmond\, Virginia. Using a range of choreographed movement\, sound\, and solidarity\, eight Black women and girls\, wearing large needle felted wool masks\, traced the ancestral footprints of the arrival of the Black body in Richmond. The 3.5 mile walk began in Shockoe Bottom (the site of the importation of slaves into Richmond\, and one of the largest sources of slave trade in America) and concluded in the Jackson Ward neighborhood (one of the largest Black communities in Richmond).\n\nThe multi-layered piece has produced a short film\, mini documentary\, photography\, and performance masks\, on display in her solo exhibition\, \"she was here\, once\" in Lane Hall.\n\nLane Hall Gallery is open to the public weekdays from 8am - 4pm. Class visits are encouraged.\n\nAccessibility: Ramp and elevator access at the E. Washington Street entrance (by the loading dock). There are accessible restrooms on the south end of Lane Hall\, on each floor of the building. A gender neutral restroom is available on the first floor.\n\nContact Heidi Bennett\, IRWG Event Planner (heidiab@umich.edu) with questions about this exhibition.\n\nCosponsors: Department of Women's Studies\, Stamps School of Art & Design\, Department of English\, Art History\, Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies\, Center for the Education of Women+

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:Paved with Good Intentions
DESCRIPTION:In keeping with artist David Opdyke’s previous work\, this site-specific installation serves as a critique of U.S. culture and politics. In an era of fake news and daily hyperbole\, Opdyke literally changes the picture by hand painting on 528 vintage postcards of well-known American landmarks and destinations. The postcards are assembled into a large mural--a vast gridded landscape beset by environmental chaos. Each card is placed to fit into the overall image\, and carefully modified with the gouache to show a realistically rendered piece of the overall turmoil.\n\nThe installation also features animated shorts and script-driven video\, which take place within the visual confines of one or more postcards. The animation is inspired\, in part\, by Terry Gilliam’s animation work on Monty Python’s \"Flying Circus\" and by the classical music sound effects in the Road Runner cartoons.\n\nAbout David Opdyke:\nDavid Opdyke is a draughtsman\, sculptor\, and animator known for his trenchant political send-ups of American culture. Born in Schenectady\, NY in 1969\, he graduated from the University of Cincinnati with a degree in painting and sculpture. His work is informed by the massive industrial and corporate restructuring he witnessed growing up\, namely the abandonment of the city center by manufacturing giants General Electric and ALCO. As GE shifted resources to neighboring Niskayuna\, the disparities became hard for Opdyke to ignore. Massive\, decaying factories\, an empty interstate loop\, and unemployment were downtown\; new streets\, expensive homes\, sushi and shopping malls were in the suburbs.\n\nFor 20 years Opdyke worked as a scenic painter and architectural model-maker. Ranging from intricate miniature constructions to room-sized installations\, his artwork explores globalization\, consumerism\, and civilization’s abusive relationship with the environment.\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:What Are Little Books Made Of?
DESCRIPTION:The Special Collections Research Center is excited to display a variety of nineteenth and twentieth century children's books made of cloth and related materials.\n\nThe market for children’s books expanded over the course of the nineteenth century\, as childhood mortality rates dropped and literacy rates rose. British and American publishers sought to create “indestructible” books that would appeal to the parents and teachers of very young children. Linen and muslin proved to be practical and appealing materials for such books\, which were usually printed with bright colors and comparatively little text.\n\nCloth books remained popular for almost a century before the cloth rationing of World War II shifted production towards heavy-duty paper substitutes\, such as “linenette.”

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:Exhibition:Marisa Morán Jahn: The Mighty and the Mythic
DESCRIPTION:Marisa Morán Jahn: The Mighty and the Mythic\nJanuary 24\, 2019 – March 2\, 2019\n\nStamps Gallery is proud to present The Mighty and the Mythic\, a solo exhibition of work by renowned social practice artist Marisa Morán Jahn. For the first time\, The Mighty and the Mythic brings together three key projects — CareForce (2012– ongoing)\, Bibliobandido (2010–ongoing)\, and MIRROR | MASK (2017–ongoing) — that highlight her deep and meaningful collaborations with low-wage immigrants\, caregivers\, and youth. Jahn describes her use of play and humor as essential tools that enable her and her collaborators to portray their lives with dignity\, critique power\, and build momentum within their community. Jahn’s practice is deeply informed by her own experiences growing up as a second-generation immigrant of Chinese and Ecuadorian heritage. For Jahn home was not a fixed place but an adaptation itself. Her varied vocational past as a schoolteacher\, caretaker\, woodshop cleaner-upper\, lumber hauler\, community organizer\, and now university professor and mother informs the urgency in her work to find common ground between (her-)self and (an-)other\, through the concepts of care and empathy. Each of the works in this exhibition highlights her deep engagement with the stories of everyday people\, mundane routines\, and a desire to build an inclusive society. Marisa Morán Jahn: the Mighty and the Mythic celebrates and acknowledges the daily struggles and minor victories of the 99 percent that make up the spirit of our society in the twenty-first century.\n\nArtwork by Marisa Morán Jahn: The Driver (detail)\, from MIRROR | MASK series\, featuring Darlyne Komukama. 2017\, Uganda

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Measuring self-similarity: power-laws and discrete scaling in blood vessels\, earthquakes and fractals
DESCRIPTION:Wealth\, earthquakes\, blood vessels\, turbulence and many other phenomena follow power-law probabilities with \"black swan\" behavior: extreme values such as billionaires or the 1906 San Francisco earthquake occur far more often than we would expect from seeing typical cases. The exponent of the power law determines the frequency of rare events and its measurement has been a challenge across fields. Power-law distributions arise from a symmetry\, scale invariance\, which is related to self-similarity. I introduce a new kind of power-law probability distribution that only assumes invariance to discrete scale transformations and thereby describes a wider variety of self-similar objects. I show how accounting for discreteness can resolve some of the difficulty of measuring power law exponents: popular maximum-likelihood inference methods are unstable in common empirical contexts and a discrete estimator rescues the method. This results in a 10% correction to measurements of the Gutenberg-Richter earthquake scaling constant and a new method for measuring scaling relationships in fractal objects like circulatory systems and Romanesco broccoli.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Biopsychology Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:Oral Contraceptives and Cognition: A Methodological Perspective on Heterogeneity\n\nEighty-five percent of women in the United States will use oral contraceptives (OCs) for at least 5 years of their life. Given its prevalence\, surprisingly little is known about the psychological and cognitive consequences of “the pill” – consequences that may influence women’s decisions to initiate\, continue\, or discontinue pill use. Relatively consistent findings are beginning to emerge with respect to memory and spatial abilities\, but research on the cognitive correlates of OC use is challenging and riddled with limitations. A primary challenge is heterogeneity: Women are biologically and socially unique\, and they use different types of OCs for different reasons. This suggests that the cognitive effects of OC use may also be unique – to subgroups of users or even to individual women! In this talk\, I will present methodological innovations that overcome past heterogeneity-related research limitations in order to capture the effects of OC use on cognition\, highlighting effects that are relatively uniform across users and those that are unique to individuals. I will accomplish this by: (1) discrediting the notion that differences in personal characteristics between OC users and naturally cycling women are responsible for differences in cognition\, (2) removing heterogeneity among OC users by placing them into homogeneous groups (based on the active ingredients in their pills) before examining effects on cognition\, and (3) capitalizing on heterogeneity by applying person-specific temporal network models to 75-day diary and cognitive testing data from naturally cycling women and women using different types of OCs.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Whole Earth\, Fractured Planet: Geohistory\, Climate Justice\, and the Crisis of Capitalism
DESCRIPTION:“We have met the enemy\, and he is us.” Cartoonist Walt Kelly’s iconic poster for the first Earth Day (1970) captured the zeitgeist of a new political imaginary: modern environmentalism. Ever since\, its dominant metaphors – from Spaceship Earth to the Anthropocene – have stressed the fundamental unity of humans in facing\, and creating\, planetary crises. Rightly insisting that humans are part of the web of life\, post-1970 environmentalism rapidly slipped into a second\, more dubious\, worldview: “we” created the conditions and realities of planetary crisis.  The new global environmental imaginary had little sense of capitalism’s global fractures\, above all the ways in which planetary color\, gender\, and class lines have been drawn and violently policed since 1492. As today’s climate crises unfold\, so too has a resurgent Western universalism\, captured in the Anthropocene’s discourse of Man versus Nature. Looking at capitalism’s long history of power and re/production\, Moore shows how movements for planetary justice must directly challenge – and disrupt – the enduring legacies of racism\, sexism\, and colonialism as fundamental drivers of climate crisis and the enrichment of the globe’s One Percent.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Chair's Distinguished Lecture Series - Programmable metamaterials for redirecting stress waves on the fly
DESCRIPTION:Osama R. Bilal\, ETH Postdoctoral Fellow\, California Institute of Technology (Caltech)\n\nMechanical metamaterials are material systems with tailored\, architected geometry\, designed to retain static and dynamic properties that do not exist or rare in nature. This class of materials usually features a structural pattern that repeats spatially (i.e.\, unit cell). Most of the metamaterials properties are inscribed in the unit cell’s frequency dispersion spectrum\, ranging form its stiffness at zero frequency to its wave attenuation capacity at finite frequencies. These metamaterials are well suited to provide new materials-based advances (through geometry rather than chemical composition) to both structural and acoustical engineering of aerospace vehicles and structures. These advances\, for example\, can range from sound and vibration insulation to flow control. A major challenge in metamaterials design is to engineer unit cells that have the ability to change their mechanical properties in a predetermined manner\, within practical time frames. As a demonstration of principle\, we harness geometric and magnetic nonlinearities to tune the metamaterials’ dispersion characteristics. We program our nonlinear metamaterial to redirect stress waves\, on the fly\, in a reversible and element-wise fashion. \n \nAbout the speaker...\nOsama R. Bilal received his Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Colorado Boulder. He is currently a postdoctoral scholar in the Department of Mechanical and Civil Engineering at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech). Before relocating to Caltech\, he was an ETH postdoctoral fellow in the department of mechanical engineering in ETH Zurich\, Switzerland. His research interest spans the realization of advanced material and structures by design\, autonomous deployment of material systems\, topology optimization\, flow control\, and multifunctional metamaterials. Osama is the recipient of several awards\, including the ARL postdoctoral fellowship (Army)\, ETH postdoctoral fellowship (ETH)\, the Graduate Student Service Award (CU-Boulder)\, the International Student Award (CU-Boulder)\, the Outstanding Academic Achievement Award (CU-Boulder) and the Phononics 2011 Fellowship (National Science Foundation)\, among others.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM/AMO Seminar | Visualizing a relativistic quantum Hall liquid in a graphene quantum dot
DESCRIPTION:Creating and probing the spatial and/or magnetic confinement of particles is ubiquitous in physics\, from thermonuclear fusion to ultracold atoms. Spatial confinement leads to the well known \"particle-in-a-box\"-like states that describe electron behavior in quantum corrals and semiconductor quantum dots (QD). Magnetic confinement leads to charged particles performing tight cyclotron motion and is responsible for the integer quantum Hall effect\, a striking example of a macroscopic topological quantum state of matter. But what happens when we finely tune from spatial to magnetic confinement\, and what role do electron interactions play?\n\nIn this talk I will present scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy (STM/S) measurements that explore the interplay between the spatial and magnetic confinement of massless Dirac fermions in a custom 'rewritable' graphene quantum dot. I will first describe how graphene electrons can form quasi-bound QD states due to relativistic Klein scattering. As a magnetic field is applied\, I will show measurements that directly visualize the intricate evolution of the atomic shell-like QD states into highly degenerate Landau levels. Here\, increased electron interactions lead to the subsequent formation of a 'wedding cake' structure of compressible-incompressible electron strips\, showing that custom-made QDs are a new platform for corralling quantum Hall liquids.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Lecture: \"Over There\" With the American Expeditionary Forces in France During the Great War
DESCRIPTION:A current exhibit at the William L. Clements Library aims to present the experiences of ordinary Americans who served in France as part of the American Expeditionary Forces (AEF) during the First World War. Studying hundreds of letters written by soldiers\, postcards\, photographs\, and other diverse materials\, curator Louis Miller discovered some shared themes from these firsthand accounts to explore in the exhibition. Miller’s lecture will discuss some of the exceptional and heartbreaking stories found in the Clements’ archives and present an overview of the exhibit.\n\nJoin us for the lecture at the Hatcher Graduate Library Gallery\; an after-hours viewing of the exhibit at the Clements Library will follow the lecture. Visitors have the opportunity to view both paper and three-dimensional objects relating to the First World War\, including a doughboy helmet\, censored letters\, photographs\, and souvenirs. A pamphlet of excerpts from the writings of Americans who served complements the exhibit.\n\nLouie Miller is an archivist at the University of Michigan’s William L. Clements Library. He has a Masters of Science in Information from the U-M School of Information with a specialization in archives and records management and a Bachelors in History from Kalamazoo College. It was while working on his undergraduate thesis at Kalamazoo that he was first drawn to the topic of American involvement in the First World War.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:WCED Lecture. Impunity as State Formation: Dictatorship and the Future of Justice in Thailand
DESCRIPTION:The regime of the National Council for Peace and Order (NCPO)\, which took power in Thailand in the 22 May 2014 coup\, is a dictatorship that has been marked by series of human rights violations including curtailment of freedom of expression\, torture\, arbitrary detention and unjust prosecutions which depart from the letter and spirit of the law. Four years after the coup\, General Prayuth Chan-ocha and the NCPO have gestured towards a willingness to hold elections\, albeit under circumstances highly-constrained by the 2017 Constitution. Taking an assumption that part of the NCPO’s reluctance to exit power is their realization of their many violations of the very law they claim to enforce\, this lecture outlines how and on what charges General Prayuth Chan-ocha and other members of the NCPO could be indicted and prosecuted under domestic criminal law and with respect to Thailand’s international human rights violations. Reflecting on such a possible prosecution within the context of Thai and global histories of human rights and impunity\, Haberkorn also explicates both the urgency of justice and potential obstacles to it. \n    \nTyrell Haberkorn is an associate professor of Southeast Asian studies in the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Her work is primarily focused on state violence and dissident cultural politics in Thailand. She is the author of \"Revolution Interrupted: Farmers\, Students\, Law and Violence in Northern Thailand\" (University of Wisconsin Press\, 2011)\, which rethinks the meaning of revolution in terms of legal rather than armed struggle\, and \"In Plain Sight: Impunity and Human Rights in Thailand\" (University of Wisconsin Press\, 2018)\, a new history of post-absolutist Thailand written through the lens of impunity. Tyrell also writes and translates frequently about Southeast Asia for a broad\, public audience\, including \"Dissent\,\" \"Foreign Affairs\,\" \"Los Angeles Review of Books\,\" \"openDemocracy\,\" and \"Prachatai.\" Her work has been funded by fellowships from Fulbright\, the Australian Research Council\, the Association for Asian Studies\, the Radcliffe Institute\, and the Einstein Forum. She can be reached via email at tyrell.haberkorn@wisc.edu. \n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to weisercenter@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.
