SUMMARY:Exhibition:Healing Power of Nature: Mixed Media
DESCRIPTION:Allison Svoboda was born in Detroit. A proud Midwesterner\, she splits her time between studios in Chicago and Pentwater\, Michigan. She is recognized for her ethereal paintings and sculptural installations. Finding the edge between intuitive and deliberate mark making\, Svoboda’s work is a meditation on the earth’s last places of quiet and untouched beauty. Challenging the viewer to rethink their responsibility to Mother Earth\, her collage works are intricate paintings layered to create sculptural works. These paintings are based on fractal geometry (infinitely unfolding terrains of self-similar shapes like those in living things. In 2015\, she received a Hemera fellowship to study Zen and calligraphy in Japan\, which continues to influence her work. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Lobby\, Floor 1.                                                                       \n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:High School Photo Project
DESCRIPTION:In her early career\, Linda Erf Swift worked as a teacher and social worker in public schools\, and later graduated from the School of the Art Institute\, Chicago. 12 years into her current work\, Swift photographs students in three high schools on Chicago’s Southside: Kenwood Academy\, King College Prep (public schools) and University High (private). She asks seniors to bring in a quotation they believe speaks to their identity\, and Swift takes their portrait with it on a blackboard behind them. The images challenge viewers to evaluate their assumptions about adolescents by opening a door into what young people really think and aspire to. The students’ choices reveal a youth culture that is wise and artistic\, assertive and joyful\, discerning and full of possibility.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center South Lobby\, Floor 1. \n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Personal Space: Oil & Chalk Pastel
DESCRIPTION:In this body of work\, Detroit artist and U-M alumna Laura Cavanagh explores quiet\, intimate spaces. An introvert by nature\, “space\,” and the preservation of personal space\, is immensely important to her. She encounters these spaces both indoors and out\, and she employs light and color to capture her emotional state relevant to the space. She works with oil and chalk pastel\, a medium that allows her to make tangible those moments that are fleeting and transitory. Cavanagh breaks down architectural elements into bold blocks of color\, creating an atmosphere of still quietude\, so critical to her creative process. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Corridor\, Floor 2.\n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Shrines & Reliquaries: Memorializing Climate
DESCRIPTION:In 2017 Leslie Sobel\, as artist in residence at Kluane National Park in Yukon Territory\, Canada\, camped on an icefield with a group of climate scientists. The landscape shrines in this exhibit combine her work as an environmental artist with the experience of that pristine\, remote\, beautiful\, and at risk environment. The mixed media boxes – utilizing painting\, monotype\, photography\, resin and encaustic – capture memories of places being altered by climate change. Meant to bring complex ideas and big emotions into a size one can literally hold in one’s hands\, the works have charred exteriors and bright colors and metal leaf echoing traditional Tibetan iconography in depicting the beauty and spiritual power of high places. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center South Lobby\, Floor 1. \n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Whimsical Worlds
DESCRIPTION:Surrealist painter and instructor Greg Potter is based in Franklin\, Indiana. After more than 20 years in the service and four tours in the Middle East\, he is now pursuing his passion in painting and 3D art. Lightheartedness\, quirkiness\, and a desire for freedom are his creatures’ main traits as they fly on nests\, sail on lakes\, or venture into outer space. Looking for autonomy on their way somewhere\, his boldly colored animal explorers\, tourists\, and misfits are uncaring about their surroundings and challenge expectations. They are out of their element due to circumstances beyond their control. One patient shared that for her\, Potter’s work symbolized the process of adapting to a diagnosis by transforming into someone stronger and wiser without losing who you really are.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center North Lobby\, Floor 1. \n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Dear Stranger: Diaries for the Private and Public Self
DESCRIPTION:Through this exhibit\, we invite you to explore more than two centuries of diaries and diary-like documents from across the holdings of the Special Collections Research Center\, ranging from privately emotive to publicly informative\, from offering news reportage to depicting emotional processing\, and from factual to purely fictional. As you read\, consider how these journals embody elements of both private and public writing and the permeability between those spheres.\n\nDiaries\, journals\, daily planners\, notebooks: these ephemeral writings provide documentation of private lives and thoughts that can otherwise be difficult to find in the historical record. But does “private” necessarily imply unfiltered and unmediated? Many theorists have noted that the diarist is both writer and reader\, both private and public self. Therefore the content and form of diaries are created for future reading\, even if only by a future version of the self. The ambiguity of a diary’s audience is heightened in the case of published diaries. The form suggests that we\, as readers\, are accessing raw\, unfiltered thoughts\, but rounds of revision are common\, and often essential to clearly convey the intended meaning. Even further from our notions of authentic\, private writing\, fictional diaries are written solely to be published and read by the public\, but use the diary form to draw the reader into a particular relationship with the text and its protagonist.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Stories of Refuge
DESCRIPTION:Since the beginning of the Syrian revolution in 2011\, Syrian refugees have been fleeing the brutal regime in search of safe haven. Munich\, Germany\, is one of the cities many Syrian refugees land after crossing unofficial borders through different European countries. Lebanese artist Tania El Khoury\, and her art collective Dictaphone Group\, collaborated with a group of Syrian refugees who had recently arrived in Munich. El Khoury gave each of these participants/collaborators a discreet camera for a day\, their only instructions being to film their daily lives in Munich. Together they produced three videos\, presented in this installation and viewed from bunk bed barracks in the gallery. \n\n“As Far As My Fingertips Take Me” An intimate\, one-to-one performance piece\, presented in conjunction with UMS.\n\nFriday\, January 24 thru Sunday\, February 2\, performances take place every 15 minutes from 4-9 pm weekdays and 12-5 pm weekends.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Art Exhibition: The Indexical Print\, curated by Andrew Thompson
DESCRIPTION:“...pronouns announce themselves as belonging to a different type of sign: the kind that is termed the index. As distinct from symbols\, indexes establish their meaning along the axis of a physical relationship to their referents.”\nKrauss\, Rosalind\, “Notes on the Index” 1977\n\nNotes on the Index was Rosalind Krauss’s attempt to corral some of the divergent\, pluralistic themes in contemporary art of the late 1970’s under a unifying identifier: the index. Indexical art was defined as artworks whose physical and aesthetic manifestation was correlated and contingent upon specific conditions of the work’s subject matter or\, as more broadly described\, ‘the referent’ of the work.\n\nUnder the guise of “the index”\, the artist’s internal monologue of creative decision-making might follow like: “How big should the work be? As big as that.” “How much should the work cost? As much as this.” “What color should I use? The color of that.” “What shape should it be? It should be shaped like this.”\n\nFor this exhibition\, The Indexical Print\, Krauss’s notion of indexical art is being narrowed towards printmaking and other methods of image replication & reproduction that follow printmaking’s lead. The artists in this exhibition might work a plate\, or a digital image\, or computer code to conduct the idea of the image into another medium or visual representation to physically manifest their creative labor. \n\nFeatured in this exhibition are prints by Jay Fox\, Ruth Koelewyn & Lee Marchalonis\, 3D printed sculptures by Jason Ferguson\, jacquard weaving from Cathryn Amidei\, data visualizations by Jeffrey Lancaster and site-specific paintings from Ellen Rutt.\n\nAbout the Artists:\n\nCathryn Amidei is a “Textilian” fluent in many forms of textile craft. She has dedicated herself to Jacquard weaving for the past 15+ years and is the studio director at The Jacquard Center in Hendersonville North Carolina. Cathryn holds an MFA in Textiles from Eastern Michigan University and a BFA from the University of Illinois in Anthropology/Russian. She was Associate Professor at Eastern Michigan University until 2018\, when she resigned to pursue her art\, and independence. Cathryn is a member of the Washington Street Gallery in Ann Arbor\, Michigan.\n\nJason J Ferguson uses humor\, the uncanny\, and an absurdist voice to create public interventions\, performance\, video\, and sculptural objects. He was raised in the small town of Poolesville\, Maryland and moved to Baltimore to study art at Towson University and then to the University of Delaware where he received his MFA. Ferguson has exhibited his work internationally including exhibitions in Germany\, the Netherlands\, Brazil and across the US. Ferguson is an Associate Professor in the School of Art & Design at Eastern Michigan University.\n\nJay Fox is a printmaker\, papermaker\, and sculptor whose practice is guided by storytelling and objects of importance which take the form of ephemera and memorials. Originally from Morganton\, North Carolina\, Fox received his BFA in printmaking from the Savannah College of Art and Design in 2008. In 2014\, he received his MFA from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Print and Narrative Forms. Jay is currently the press manager of the Small Craft Advisory Press at Florida State University after five years of working at Penland School of Craft as the Print\, Letterpress\, Books\, and Paper coordinator.\n\nRuth Koelewyn's work uses familiar objects and events to reveal how our interactions with them shape ourselves and our context for living.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Restoring Justice to Targets of Online Harassment
DESCRIPTION:Most social media sites sanction online harassment by removing content or banning users.  However\, these approaches largely write the targets of online harassment out of the justice-seeking process.  If a person is harassed on social media\, they are given no opportunity for acknowledgement or reparation.  This talk will discuss how theories of justice can help social media sites to better support people who are targets of online harassment. \n\nDr. Schoenebeck is an Associate Professor in the School of Information at the University of Michigan. She directs the Living Online Lab and co-directs the Social Media Research Lab. Her research\nfocuses on promoting more equitable and inclusive experiences online in domains ranging from online harassment to gender equity to children’s privacy.  Her research has been covered in global media including the New York Times\, the Washington Post\, NPR\, and elsewhere.\n\nThis is the fourth in a six-lecture series. The subject is Social Media Research:  What We Know Now. The next lecture will be February 5\, 2020. The title is: Why We Use Social Media: Evolution\, Neuroscience\, and Problematic Use.

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\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support of this exhibition:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics:
DESCRIPTION:In the midst of the political and cultural upheavals of the 60s and 70s\, artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Collection Ensemble
DESCRIPTION:Collection Ensemble presents the first major reinstallation of UMMA's iconic entry space in over a decade. It exchanges Alumni Memorial Hall's previous focus on European and American painting for a broad mix of American\, European\, African\, and Asian art from across media\, sampling the Museum's remarkable\, disparate holdings. The installation is organized into thematic and formal vignettes that respond to the concepts and ideas resonating from an extraordinary large-scale photograph of a vacant cathedral by contemporary German artist Candida Höfer. Featuring works of art by numerous famous and not-so-famous artists\, many of them artists of color and women—including Charles Alston\, Christo\, Theaster Gates\, Jenny Holzer\, Roni Horn\, Do-Ho Suh\, Kara Walker\, and others\, Collection Ensemble reimagines the collection not as a fixed entity with one set of meanings to be unearthed\, but instead as an active\, creative\, sometimes startling source of material and ideas\, open for debate and interpretation.\n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cullen Washington\, Jr.: The Public Square
DESCRIPTION:This expansive look at the work and concerns of emerging contemporary artist Cullen Washington\, Jr. pivots around the artist’s most recent series\, Agoras. The compositions explore the ancient Greek public space as a site for activated assembly and the heart of the artistic\, spiritual\, and political life of the city. UMMA’s installation is designed with an actual public square at its center\, complete with sound components featuring noted political and aesthetic discourse and surrounded by Washington’s soaring monumental collages. Works from four earlier series by the artist form the perimeter of the Museum’s largest special exhibition space. The artist describes his work as “abstract meditations on the grid and humanity.”\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, Candy and Michael Barasch\, the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs\, and the Institute for the Humanities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Reflections: An Ordinary Day
DESCRIPTION:UMMA’s second exhibition of Inuit art derived from the Power Family’s generous promised gift to the Museum in 2018 explores the relationship between the artist and the representation of everyday experiences. Through a selection of mid-century to contemporary Inuit prints\, drawings\, and sculptures that portray seemingly ordinary reflections of daily life along with daydreaming meditations\, the exhibition bridges the mundane and the fantastic. Together\, these artworks present a distinct imagery and a visual poetry culled from the day-to-day reality of life in the far polar north. The perspectives range from soaring gazes at the horizon to glimpses of commonplace social interactions. These contemplations reveal intimate connections among the artists\, their communities\, and their locale—a specific place and time composed of icy regions and vast seas and tundras. Reflections: An Ordinary Day takes visitors on a lyrical journey of the myriad spaces and routines within an Arctic landscape.\n\nThis exhibition is made possible by the Power Family Program for Inuit Art\, established in 2018 through the generosity of Philip and Kathy Power.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Take Your Pick: Collecting Found Photographs
DESCRIPTION:Come help build our collection of “ordinary” American 20th-century photographs.\n \nTake Your Pick invites you—the Museum’s visitors—to select photographs for our permanent collection. What belongs in a permanent collection\, and why? Who and what should be represented\, and how should we decide? This exhibition considers these questions in regard to 1\,000 amateur photographs on loan from the private collection of Peter J. Cohen\, who has gathered more than 60\,000 snapshots while exploring flea markets in the United States and Europe over two decades. The images he has collected depict all aspects of daily life and reveal the dynamic histories of amateur photography. Such pictures have particular significance in the current digital age\, when it is much less common to make physical copies of personal photographs. They constitute important artifacts of twentieth-century visual culture and precedents for the photographs we still make today. You are invited to make your voice heard in the selection process by voting for the photographs that resonate most with you!  \n \nVote for your favorite pictures: Saturday\, September 21\, 2019 – Sunday\, January 12\, 2020 Final selections on view: Tuesday\, January 14 – Sunday\, February 23\, 2020\n\nSupport for this exhibition is provided by Cecilia and Mark Vonderheide and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and Department of Film\, Television\, and Media.\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Complex Systems Seminar | \"Using a wetland community-ecosystem model to explore ecosystem interactions and dynamics from a perspective of complex adaptive systems\"
DESCRIPTION:The Seminar is presented as part of UM \"Earth Day at 50\" and the LSA \"Great Lakes Theme Semester\".\n\nAbstract:  In the complexity research community\, ecosystems are often considered to be examples of complex adaptive systems.  However\, complexity researchers often focus on species interactions in a community but exclude phenomena that ecosystem scientists view as central\, such as carbon balance\, water flows\, and nutrient cycling.  Ecosystem process models can provide a bridge between these fields.  These models capture and represent our scientific understanding of ecosystem processes and their complex interactions and responses to external drivers.  Some of these models also include the dynamics of individual species.  In this seminar the Mondrian model will be examined\, a community-ecosystem model of Great Lakes coastal wetlands developed by Currie and others here at Michigan.  Model results and behavior will be examined from a perspective of complex adaptive systems.  Mondrian is a complex\, individual-based model that simulates thousands of individual plants of four species and their spatially-explicit competition\, while strongly coupling the plant species functionality and competition to balanced ecosystem-level fluxes of carbon and nitrogen as well as water flows through a wetland.  The model will be used to examine emergence and in nutrient cycling and community dynamics and to test hypotheses related to attractor behaviors in these variables on a range of time scales.  The seminar will also touch on applied questions that the Mondrian model is used to address in coastal wetlands including nutrient retention\, carbon storage\, biodiversity and invasive plant species.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series | Unwritten Stories: Medieval Maritime Trade of the Seto Inland Sea
DESCRIPTION:The Seto Inland Sea region was the center for much of Japan’s late medieval (14th – 16th c) period’s commercial activity\, yet few documents detailing the organization of those trade networks remain – if indeed they were ever written. Using geospatial analysis (GIS) of evidence from written and archaeological records\, it becomes possible to trace the flow of goods and people within the Inland Sea region. The environment and geography are central players in this story\, affecting the trade routes\, networks\, and even shipping practices that develop during the late medieval period.\n   \n   Michelle Damian is an Assistant Professor of History at Monmouth College\, IL (USA). She has published chapters in several edited volumes and articles in Japan Forum and Education About Asia.

Please join us!\n\nTitle: “Climatology of Thermospheric Neutral Winds and TIDs over South Africa: Observations from 630 nm Fabry-Perot Interferometer and All-sky Imager”\n\nAbstract: Nighttime traveling ionospheric disturbances are detected from 630 nm airglow measurements from an all-sky imager in Sutherland\, South Africa (geographic coordinates: 32.4° S\, 20.8° E\; magnetic latitude: 40.7° S). To understand the influence of the background winds on the propagation of the TIDs\, we used wind data from a co-located Fabry-Perot interferometer. For this study the measurements used were taken during the period of September 2018 and August 2019. A total of 52 TIDs were identified\, the majority occurring during the local winter season. The overall speed\, azimuth\, wavelength and periods of the majority of these TIDs were 50 – 200 m/s\, 0 – 338 degrees\, 150 – 400 km\, 19 – 106 minutes\, respectively. There was no detected seasonal trend on their characteristics. The TIDs propagated mostly in the west direction regardless of the season. Analysis of the FPI wind data revealed that the mean background zonal winds varied between -72 and 126 m/s and were strongly eastward before midnight. They reversed flow direction to westward around local midnight in summer whereas in winter the reversal occurs closer to local sunrise. In addition\, zonal winds have lower (higher) magnitudes in summer (winter).  Meanwhile the mean background meridional winds are mostly equatorward for most of the year until around winter where they flow poleward in early evening and then reverse direction around 22 UT (00 LT). The meridional winds varied between -52 and 109 m/s\, and contrary to the zonal winds their amplitudes were higher in summer and lower in winter. The dominance of westward propagating TIDs is explained by the fact that the TIDs mostly had higher velocities and/or propagate against or perpendicular to the background wind.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:BME 500: Meghan Driscoll\, Ph.D.
DESCRIPTION:Signaling is governed not only by the expression levels of molecules\, but by their localization via mechanisms as diverse as compartmentalization in organelles\, phase separation\, and directed transport by motor proteins. Cell morphology likely also modulates the localization of signaling molecules\, and recent advances in high-resolution light-sheet microscopy\, such as lattice light-sheet microscopy\, now allow imaging at the spatiotemporal resolution needed to capture the many undulations and quick dynamics of the 3D cell surface. However\, these microscopes generate large datasets with detailed 3D movies that are impossible to interpret without a dedicated computational pipeline. In this seminar\, I will introduce u-shape3D\, a computer graphics and machine-learning pipeline to probe molecular mechanisms underlying 3D cell morphogenesis. U-shape3D includes a generic morphological motif detector that automatically finds lamellipodia\, filopodia\, blebs and other motifs in order to test the intriguing possibility that morphogenesis itself affects intracellular signaling.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Chair's Distinguished Lecture: Understanding the Reactivity of Nonequilibrium Molecular Plasmas  for Propulsion and Power Applications
DESCRIPTION:Igor V. Adamovich\nProfessor \nDepartment of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering\nChemical Physics Graduate Program\nOhio State University\n\nUnderstanding the kinetics of molecular energy transfer and chemical reactions in nonequilibrium reactive flows and low-temperature plasmas is critical for a number of engineering applications\, such as hypersonic aerothermodynamics and propulsion\, high-speed flow control\, plasma-assisted combustion\, and plasma-enhanced catalysis. Non-intrusive laser diagnostics is critical for probing these environments\, where chemical reaction pathways and internal energy relaxation are strongly affected by the applied electric field and by the number densities of excited molecular and atomic species. This talk presents recent results on characterization of reacting molecular plasmas in a slow flow reactor and in a supersonic wind tunnel. The plasmas are sustained by a ns pulse discharge combined with DC or RF voltage waveforms\, which improves the plasma stability at high pressures and enables selective generation of vibrationally and electronically excited molecules\, as well as atomic species and radicals. Electric field\, gas temperature\, vibrational level populations of diatomic molecules\, and number densities of excited metastable electronic states in these plasmas are measured by Electric Field Induced Second Harmonic (EFISH) generation\, Coherent Anti-Stokes Ramas Scattering (CARS)\, Cavity Ring Down Spectroscopy (CRDS)\, and Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy (TDLAS). These data provide detailed insight into kinetics of ionization\, vibrational relaxation\, quenching of excited electronic states\, molecular dissociation\, energy thermalization (“rapid heating”)\, and plasma chemical reactions\, as well as their coupling to the reacting flow.\n\nAbout the speaker...\n\nResearch interests: kinetics of high-speed nonequilibrium reacting flows and low-temperature plasmas\, molecular energy transfer\, plasma-assisted combustion\, plasma flow control\, plasma-enhanced catalysis\, molecular lasers\, laser diagnostics\, and kinetic modeling. \n\nAssociate Editor\, Plasma Sources Science and Technology. Associate Fellow\, American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA). Publications include over 150 archival journal papers\, over 300 conference papers\, over 90 invited lectures at national and international conferences\, and 2 patents.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Thursday Seminar: River capture promotes evolutionary diversification in continental freshwaters
DESCRIPTION:Neotropical freshwaters house one of the greatest concentration of species and phenotypes on Earth\, with more than 8\,000 fish species representing approximately 10% of all living vertebrates combined\, compressed into a tiny volume of aquatic habitat. The diversity of Neotropical freshwater fishes long predates the geological formation of the modern Amazon and Orinoco river basins\, and the unparalleled diversity we observe today arose from an excess of speciation over extinction rates operating over a lengthy time period of tens of millions of years. In this paper we summarize the major phylogenetic and biogeographic dimensions of the Neotropical ichthyofauna\, and review recent advances in understanding the roles of paleogeography\, river capture\, and other landscape evolution processes contributing to the formation of this singular fauna.\n\nView YouTube video of seminar: https://youtu.be/1Qsk76-KDDk

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EIHS Lecture: Ecology and Empire on the Yellow River
DESCRIPTION:This presentation introduces Ruth Mostern’s work on the imperial and ecological history of the Yellow River\, a five-thousand-year history of the relationship between people\, water\, and sediment. Her work reveals how gradual changes (for instance in climate and population) intersect with sudden cataclysms (such as wars and floods). Interweaving the history of the river’s moist floodplain with that of the erosion zone hundreds of miles away\, it demonstrates how social and political transformations can have unintended ecological consequences very far from the locations where they transpire. This research combines maps and timelines with historical documents\, archaeological information\, and environmental science.\n\nRuth Mostern is associate professor of history and director of the World History Center at the University of Pittsburgh. She is the author of Dividing the Realm in Order to Govern: The Spatial Organization of the Song State (960-1276 CE)\, the coeditor of Placing Names: Enriching and Integrating Gazetteers\, and the principal investigator for the World-Historical Gazetteer\, a digital ecosystem for sharing information about historical places.\n\nFree and open to the public. \n\nThis event is part of the Thursday Series of the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:FAST Lecture | Assessing Mechanisms of Mobility and Exchange in the Prehistoric Cyclades
DESCRIPTION:Recent research in the Bronze Age Cycladic archipelago has documented the widespread evidence for the distribution of imported products — especially ceramics — throughout the region. In addition\, consensus has grown that human mobility was a key feature in driving technical and stylistic changes in Cycladic assemblages. Indeed\, the operation of different sorts of mobility seems to be a key feature underlying major patterns of material culture change in the islands during the Middle and Late Bronze Age. In this era\, Cycladic islanders adopted and adapted material culture and practice from the palatial Minoan society of Crete. This presentation discusses human and object mobility in the context of changing patterns of consumption and production in the islands in order to provide new perspectives on the so-called Minoanization phenomenon.\n\nReception at the Kelsey Museum at 5:30 PM\, lecture to follow at 6:00 PM.\n\nFAST lectures are free and open to the public. If you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this tour\, please call the Kelsey at 734-647-4167 at least two weeks in advance. We ask for advance notice as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Meeting:Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy Group
DESCRIPTION:The Psychological Clinic offers Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy group as a treatment for people with depression as well as other mental health conditions. While the chemical and physical aspects of depression and other mental health disorders are far more complex than just feeling down\, current research supports a cognitive approach as a way to change patterns of brain functioning and build resilience in people struggling with chronic depression.\nThe program uses a combination of cognitive therapy and mindfulness to help participants form new\, healthier modes of thought. MBCT initiates a cognitive change that helps clients move past events that have the potential to trigger relapse. Participants learn how to view their thoughts without judgment.\nMBCT is about equipping participants with the ability to regulate one’s own thoughts and moods and to put new skills into practice in the way they are most useful to each client. MBCT helps flip the script in a way\, empowering participants\, helping them step into a well-fortified position and giving them the tools and the knowledge to help themselves at any stage of life.\nThe next session is scheduled to begin January 23\, 2020 and runs for eight weeks. Participants will meet weekly\, on Thursdays from 5-7:30 p.m. \nIf you are interested in attending or referring a potential group participant\, please contact the Psychological Clinic to begin the process. Call (734) 764-3471 and leave a message with the best time to reach you and we will be in touch within one to two business days to schedule a screening.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Court of Public Opinion
DESCRIPTION:The School of Information presents a lecture and panel discussion with R. Stanton Jones\, a Michigan alum and Washington attorney whose firm has played a central role in litigating social justice cases related to immigration detention\, gerrymandering and voter I.D. laws.\n\nThis includes high profile cases such as the Department of Commerce v. New York\, which brought into question the legality of adding citizenship status to the U.S. census. After “smoking gun” evidence was uncovered and publicized\, this case generated a high volume of social media interest. Prominent commentators have credited the enormous media attention and the accompanying public outrage/outcry with turning the outcome of the case. \n\nAnn Arbor District Library Director Josie Parker will moderate a panel discussion with Jones and Professor Christian Sandvig\, U-M School of Information and Department of Communication Studies\, and Ann Lin\, Associate Professor of Public Policy in the Ford School\n\nThis event is funded by the William Warner Bishop and Martha Boaz Lectureships.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Continuing Korematsu: Our Fight in the Trump Era
DESCRIPTION:January 30th is the Fred Korematsu Day of Civil Liberties and the Constitution. On February 19th\, 1942\, President Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066\, one of the most blatant forms of racial profiling in US history\, which led to the forced removal and incarceration of over 120\,000 American citizens and residents on the basis of being ethnically Japanese. Fred T. Korematsu was one of many who refused to be incarcerated\, and was arrested. A national civil rights hero\, Fred Korematsu appealed his case to the Supreme Court. Although the Supreme Court ruled against him in 1944\, in 1983 his conviction was overturned in a coram nobis proceeding where Fred Korematsu addressed the court\, saying\, “I would like to see the government admit they were wrong\, and do something about it so this will never happen again to any American citizen of any race\, creed\, or color.” \n \nIn 2014 and again in 2019\, the US government attempted to reopen the Fort Sill camp to incarcerate migrant children from Latin America\; Fort Sill was previously used as a concentration camp where Native Americans and Japanese Americans were detained. In June 2017\, ICE agents raided and arrested Iraqi families in the Detroit area\, leading to the ACLU’s lawsuit\, Hamama v. Adducci. Raids on Iraqi families have continued into 2019.  \n\nOn January 30th\, APALSA's Political Action Committee\, in partnership with the Michigan Asian Pacific American Affairs Commission and Stop Repeating History would like to invite you to attend a screening of the documentary Alternative Facts: The Lies of Executive Order 9066 by Jon Osaki\, followed by a panel discussion and audience Q&A led by University of Michigan Law student Kevin Luong. \n\nThis event features incredible guest speakers: Dr. Karen Korematsu\, Don Tamaki\, Aamina Ahmed\, Mary Kamidoi\, and Michael Steinberg.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:CJS Art of the Camera Film Series | An Autumn Afternoon (Sanma no aji)
DESCRIPTION:The last film by Yasujiro Ozu was also his final masterpiece\, a gently heartbreaking story about a man’s dignified resignation to life’s shifting currents and society’s modernization. Though the widower Shuhei (frequent Ozu leading man Chishu Ryu) has been living comfortably for years with his grown daughter\, a series of events leads him to accept and encourage her marriage and departure from their home. As elegantly composed and achingly tender as any of the Japanese master’s films\, An Autumn Afternoon is one of cinema’s fondest farewells.\n\nCinematographer: Yûharu Atsuta\n\nRead more about the film\, including ratings\, at the IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0056444/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0\n\nFull series details and film trailers here: https://www.michtheater.org/cinematography/
