SUMMARY:Fair / Festival:(CANCELLED) Palomitas Cineclub: Festival de cine presents Pájaros de verano (Birds of Passage)
DESCRIPTION:Pájaros de verano (Birds of Passage)Wayuu\, English\, and Spanish with English subtitlesWith Carmiña Martínez\, José Acosta\, Natalia Reyes\, Jhon Narváez\, Greider Meza\, José Vicente Cote\, Juan Bautista MartínezACADEMY AWARD® COLOMBIA’S SUBMISSION FOR BEST FOREIGN LANGUAGE FILMCristina Gallego and Ciro Guerra\, the creative team behind Oscar®-nominated Embrace of the Serpent (also available for your SFC festival)\, return with this inspired mob epic for the ages — a completely fresh take on the origins of the Colombian drug trade\, far from Narcos and Escobar\, as told through the story of an indigenous Wayúu family.In the 1970s\, as an American-fueled marijuana boom hits Colombia\, farmers quickly turn into seasoned businessmen starting a narco-trafficking era known as “la Bonanza Marimbera.”In the Guajira desert\, one indigenous Wayúu clan takes a leading role. Guided by matriarch Ursula Pushaina\, the “Birds of Passage”—drug runners—face the constant risk of violence and incarceration from the outsiders in Northern Colombia. The cultural differences between the native population and the newcomers begin a brutal war that threatens to destroy the Wayúu way of life. As greed\, passion\, and honor blend together over the decades\, the family’s unity\, their lives\, and their ancestral traditions are all put at stake.A true story\, the visually striking Birds of Passage is as much a thriller as it is an anthropological study on the consequences of outside influences to indigenous traditions.Palomitas Cineclub Winter 2020 Film Festival The Palomitas Cineclub\, organized by graduate students of the Romance Languages & Literatures Department\, has been awarded a Spanish Film Club Festival Grant* to sponsor public screenings of contemporary Iberoamerican film at the University of Michigan. All films will be screened in their original languages with English subtitles. The series will be free and open to the public.Combining the funds from the Spanish Film Club Festival Grant* with additional financial support from within the university\, we will screen six contemporary Latin American feature films and documentaries between February 26 and April 3 on Wednesday evenings at 7 pm in the Modern languages Building\, 1220 (Lecture Room 1):Frágil equilibrio (Guillermo García Lopez\, 2016)\, Tempestad (Tatiana Huezo\, 2016)\, Ixcanul\, Volcán (Jayro Bustamante\, 2015)\, La soledad (Jorge Thielen-Armand\, 2016)\, El abrazo de la serpiente (Ciro Guerra\, 2015) and Pájaros de verano (Ciro Guerra and Cristina Gallego\, 2018). Each screening will be followed by an informal discussion session during which the audience is invited to discuss the film.We welcome everyone to participate in a space of cultural engagement where undergraduate and graduate students can come together to practice their language skills and partake in critical discussions of cinema. *The Spanish Film Club Festival Grant was made possible with the support of Pragda\, SPAIN arts & culture\, and the Secretary of State for Culture of Spain.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Birds Fly In: Oil Painting
DESCRIPTION:Birds first flew onto Ellie Harold's canvases in 2016\, appearing to her as intuitive messengers of hope and healing for troubled times. She paints intuitively to music\, spontaneously\, with no plan in mind and with as little thought as possible. She sees the first marks of black calligraphy as the hint of a language revealing bird wisdom hidden beneath successive layers of color. She paints the white layer last\, unifying all of the elements in the painting. Harold uses not only a brush\, but also fingers\, squeegee and oil sticks to capture the fleeting nature of birds. An ordained Unity minister\, Harold aims for this series to inspire the discovery of inner solutions to difficult issues that have so far eluded resolution by ordinary means.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CANCELLED - CREES Pop-Up Exhibit. Brodsky on the Horizon
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit has been postponed due to COVID-19.  We are working to reschedule Gluklya's campus visit\, but in the meantime\, enjoy this interview which was recently conducted by our alumna Dianne Beal (BA REES '79)\, curator and art advisor of Galerie Blue Square: https://youtu.be/QHO-gCuWQjY.  \n\nIn \"Brodsky on the Horizon\" Gluklya will show the video from her latest project\, \"Carnival of Oppressed Feelings\,\" which was last exhibited in 2019 at the Van Abbemuseum in Eindhoven\, the Netherlands. Several examples of her \"Utopian Clothes\,\" previously used in performances and workshops\, works on paper and other selected videos will be displayed as well. These works will visualize the artist's personal connection to Joseph Brodsky’s poems and writings. The exhibit will also depict Joseph Brodsky's time at the University of Michigan\, through reproduced photographs from the Ardis Records in Special Collections of the Hatcher Library.\n   \nGluklya (Natalia Pershina-Yakimanskaya) is a visual and performance artist. Her manifesto states: “The place of the artist is on the side of the weak.” She uses clothing\, installations\, video\, participatory projects\, text\, and research to develop a concept of fragility. For Gluklya\, fragility is interpreted not as “delicate beauty” but as “invisible strength.” Her work explores topics of social exclusion\, untapped intuitive knowledge\, mind-body connections\, violation of human rights\, and stereotypes. Considered a pioneer of Russian performance art\, Gluklya is a co-founder of the Factory of Found Clothes (FFC) and the group Chto Delat (What is to be done?). In 2012\, FFC became the Utopian Unemployment Union\, a project that unites art\, social science\, and progressive pedagogy to give people from all social backgrounds an opportunity to make art together. Today\, the artist participates in many international shows including the 56th edition of the Venice Biennale (2015) and Positions #4 at the Van Abbemuseum in the Netherlands (2018-19). She has been awarded numerous art prizes and grants\, including a fellowship from the Joseph Brodsky Fellowship Memorial Fund in 2014 and support from the Mondriaan Fund for recent projects.\n   \nPresented in partnership with the Penny Stamps Distinguished Speaker Series.\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at weisercenter@umich.edu 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Flora Series: Woven Wire Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Anne Mondro is an artist and a professor in the U-M Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design. In this body of work\, she reflects on how time spent in nature has inspired new personal discoveries and intellectual curiosity\, while serving as a positive distraction from recent experiences with grief and sadness. Drawing from these insights\, Mondro crocheted and stitched fine wire to create intricate woven sculptures reminiscent of seeds\, pods and other organic forms. Focusing on the wonderfully complex construction of these forms\, Mondro mimics nature’s ability to be structurally strong while delicate in appearance to invite deeper exploration.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gouache Paintings
DESCRIPTION:Jaye Schlesinger is a full time painter living and working in Ann Arbor. Her work includes realist oil paintings of common everyday objects and abstracted subjects portrayed in gouache (opaque watercolor) on paper. This recent body of work evolved from years of photographing rooftops\, playgrounds\, houses and aerial views\, and digitally manipulating them to create colorful and quirky compositions. The scenes are not intended to be specific locales\, but rather to celebrate the color\, shape\, rhythm and structure found in our daily environment. Gouache is a medium which requires slow and careful application and reflects the artist’s view of painting as a meditative pursuit.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Migrations: Fiber Notes from the Journey
DESCRIPTION:Migration has profoundly affected the life and perspective of the Michigan-based fiber artist\, Martina Celerin. Celerin’s family emigrated from Czechoslovakia to Canada in 1968 as political refugees escaping Soviet rule. Both a molecular geneticist and artist\, her artistic medium is a sophisticated blend of highly dimensional weaving\, crochet\, needle felting\, and other fiber-based techniques that incorporates everyday reclaimed and recycled materials to help tell a story. The pieces on exhibit are drawn from a larger body of work that translates the extraordinary challenges of modern-day human migration and notes the parallel phenomena in animals.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:What We Hold\, What Holds Us: Homes & Vessels
DESCRIPTION:Although Candace Compton Pappas is recognized primarily as a painter\, this series of constructed homes and vessels represents an important facet of her life as an artist. Over the years\, she has collected\, saved\, garbage-rescued\, and gathered objects that capture her attention. A firm believer that there is no such thing as garbage\, and a great observer of nature’s cycle of creating and breaking down\, she has constructed numerous cement vessels to hold all these objects that proliferate the studio. These finds\, the vessels that hold them\, and the totems that pay tribute to them\, all keep her company\, inspire her\, and keep her calm in her temple-like studio in the woods outside of Chelsea\, Michigan.

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:Conference / Symposium:CANCELLED - GISC Conference. Muslims in Comics: Superheroes & Scapegoats
DESCRIPTION:Unfortunately and due to unforeseen circumstances\, this event has been cancelled. We will reschedule this event in Fall 2020. \n\nAll Day Conference\nFri\, April 3\, 10:00 AM - 5:30 PM\n555 Weiser Hall\n\nPanelists will include: Esra Mirze Santesso\, Chris Gavaler\, Aliyah Khan\, & Karla Mallette. A keynote address will be given at 4:00 PM by Saladin Ahmed. \n\nThis event is free and open to the public but please RSVP: https://forms.gle/MKZ96YSR7JgiYvHn8\n\nSchedule:\n10:00-11:00: Esra Mirze Santesso\n11:00-12:00: Karla Mallette\n12:00-2:00: BREAK\n2:00-3:00: Aliyah Khan\n3:00-4:00: Chris Gavaler\n4:00-5:30: Saladin Ahmed\n\nFrom dissidents to villains to superheroes\, how are Muslim characters written--and how does the public read them--in comic books today? This workshop explores the roles open to Muslim characters in serialized comics and graphic novels. The medium of serialized comics\, commercialized in the twentieth century by mainstream comics publishers such as Marvel and DC\, and epitomized by their respective superhero universes\, has long been associated with a lack of racial and religious diversity\, the sexualization of female characters\, and a reader base that is stereotypically young\, male\, and white. Minority characters were often limited to tokenized villains or sidekicks designed for comic relief. But the contemporary young Muslim female superhero Ms. Marvel symbolizes a comics landscape that is changing. In the contexts of the Gulf Wars\, 9/11\, the Arab Spring\, the Palestinian conflict\, ongoing civil unrest in the Middle East\, and worldwide refugee migrant crises\, writers and artists from the Muslim and Arab worlds\, and others writing journalistically and historically about those locales\, are at the forefront of graphic medium literary production. \n\nGraphic novels and comics by and about Muslims and Arabs comprise a growing and distinctive narrative strain within comics studies—one that this workshop of comics and Muslim and Arab Studies artists and scholars seeks to investigate. \n\nKeynote speaker and Eisner Award-winning comics artist and science fiction and fantasy author Saladin Ahmed (*Throne of the Crescent Moon*\, *Miles Morales: Spider-Man*\, *Black Bolt*\, *Exiles*) will speak about his new work for Marvel and other enterprises.\n\nChris Gavaler (*On the Origin of Superheroes: From the Big Bang to Action Comics No. 1*\, 2015) explores the Islamicist history of the 20th-century superhero. \n\nEsra Mirze Santesso (*Disorientation: Muslim Identity in Contemporary Anglophone Literature*\, 2013) discusses human rights discourse in narratives of war and dissidence in Iran and Kashmir. \n\nKarla Mallette (*European Modernity and the Arab Mediterranean*\, 2010) reports on resistance to Muslim and other minority identity politics from some comics readers. \n\nAliyah Khan (*Far from Mecca: Globalizing the Muslim Caribbean*\, 2020) examines orientalist representations of Muslim female superheroes. \n\nThe presenters bring postcolonial\, decolonial\, comics studies\, and historicizing methodologies to bear on understanding commonalities and differences among Islamic\, Muslim\, and Arab graphic narratives\, reading them as transnational works that\, as many of their subjects do\, cross borders and resist authoritarian states.  \n\n\nCosponsored by: The Center for Middle Eastern and North African Studies\, The Digital Islamic Studies Curriculum\, Middle East Studies\, and Arab and Muslim American Studies\n\n---\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please contact us at islamicstudies@umich.edu\, we'd be happy to help. As you may know\, some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange\, so please let us know as soon as you can.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the 60s and 70s: Kaleidoscope
DESCRIPTION: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 in the midst of the political and cultural upheavals of the 1960s and 70s. Kaleidoscope\, UMMA’s third and final edition of this exhibition series\, examines the constantly changing practices of local Detroit artists\, women artists\, and artists of color as they actively embraced abstraction’s possibilities. Their strategies dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in a shifting American political landscape.\n\nSupport for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund\, and the Robert and Janet Miller Fund

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. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Department of History of Art\, School of Education\, Department of Afroamerican and African Studies\, School of Social Work\, and Gerald R.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:IOE Lunch & Learn Seminar Series: Siqian Shen\, U-M IOE
DESCRIPTION:This event is open to all\, IOE undergraduate students and undeclared U-M engineering students are especially encouraged to attend. \n\nTitle:\nA Summary of Operations Research and Industrial Engineering Tools for Fighting COVID-19\n\nAbstract:\nOperations Research (OR) and Industrial Engineering (IE) approaches are widely used in industry and play important roles in improving the design and operations of many standard corporate activities such as supply chain management\, job/staff scheduling\, healthcare\, mobility and transportation systems\, energy systems\, facility location\, and resource allocation. In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic\, policymakers\, companies\, community workers and individual households have been designing new systems and procedures to fight the virus. Many problems related to optimizing these systems and their operations can be tackled by extending the traditional OR and IE approaches with new objectives\, constraints\, and input data. The purpose of this talk is to summarize potential scenarios one may encounter during the prevention\, disease control\, intervention and recovery phases during COVID-19 outbreaks\, and point out the OR and IE models that can be applied for solving the related problems. Using these techniques\, policymakers can better prepare for rare but catastrophic events such as the COVID-19 pandemic\, can better inform the public to perform “social distancing”\, can better utilize resources and ensure medical supplies during the outbreak\, and can improve the quality of life and work to mitigate economic losses. This talk is based on a recent article: http://www-personal.umich.edu/~siqian/docs/or-ie-fighting-covid19_v1.pdf\n\nBio:\nSiqian Shen is an Associate Professor of Industrial and Operations Engineering at the University of Michigan and also serves as an Associate Director in the Michigan Institute for Computational Discovery & Engineering (MICDE). She obtained a B.S. degree from Tsinghua University in 2007 and Ph.D. from the University of Florida in 2011. Her theoretical research interests are in integer programming\, stochastic/robust optimization\, and network optimization. Applications include optimization and risk analysis of energy\, healthcare\, cloud computing\, and transportation systems. She is a recipient of the IIE Pritsker Doctoral Dissertation Award (1st Place)\, INFORMS IBM Smarter Planet Innovation Faculty Award\, and Department of Energy (DoE) Early Career Award. Prof. Shen serves in the editorial board of journals like IISE Transactions\, Networks\, Service Science\, INFORMS Journal on Computing. Her research has been supported by the National Science Foundation\, Army Research Office\, Department of Energy\, Department of Transportation\, Ford Motor Company and DiDi ChuXing.\n\nAttend virtually via BlueJeans:\n\nTo join the meeting on a computer or mobile phone: https://bluejeans.com/699467807?src=calendarLink\n\nOne Touch Dial-in:\n+13122160325\,\,\,699467807#\n\nConnecting directly from a room system?\n\n1.)

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:Witness Lab
DESCRIPTION:Designed as a courtroom installation and a performance series by Roman J. Witt Artist in Residence Courtney McClellan\, Witness Lab frames witnessing as a social and artistic act. The gallery collapses courtroom\, theater\, classroom\, laboratory\, and artist studio in order to study the relationship between performance and law. In hosting mock trials\, court transcript readings\, and trial advocacy workshops\, the artist investigates who performs the role of witness in our society and how that understanding may map onto the narrower legal definition of the role. The installation will host legal simulations from participating groups\, including the Trial Advocacy Society and the Oral Argument Competition from the University of Michigan Law School\, as well as the undergraduate team of the Collegiate American Mock Trial Association. Taking the role of courtroom sketch artists\, or court reporters\, students from the U-M Stamps School of Art and Design will observe and document the courtroom performances through drawing\, text\, photography\, and video.\n\nWitness Lab is presented in partnership with the Roman J. Witt Artist in Residence Program of the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, with lead support provided by the University of Michigan Law School and Office of the Provost.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:[CANCELLED]. CSEAS Lecture Series. Islamizing a Sacred Hindu-Javanese Text: The Story of Jimat Kalimasada in Javanese Wayang Puppet Play
DESCRIPTION:Sumarsam\, Winslow-Kaplan Professor of Music\, Wesleyan University\n\nBefore the arrival of Islam\, Javanese people had lived in Hindu–Javanese hybrid culture. The Islamization of Java has given rise to not only the expansion of different groups of people with diverse syncretistic religion and culture\, but also rich variations in the content and context of Java-Islamic cultural performance genres and ideologies. Believing in the performing arts as one of the major venues for the blending of beliefs and practices\, my presentation discusses a particular wayang story\, Jimat Kalimasada\, to show the complex processes of religious and cultural transformation from Hindu-Javanese to Islam-Javanese world of view.\n   \n   Sumarsam has played Javanese gamelan since childhood. He is also a keen amateur dhalang (puppeteer) of wayang puppet play. He holds a BA degree from Akademi Seni Karawitan Indonesia\, MA from Wesleyan\, and PhD from Cornell. Currently holding the status of Winslow-Kaplan Professor of Music\, he has taught at Wesleyan since 1972. His research on the history\, theory\, and performance practice of gamelan and wayang\, and on Indonesia-Western encounter theme has resulted the publication of numerous articles and two books: Gamelan: Cultural Interaction and Musical Development in Central Java (1995) and Javanese Gamelan and the West (2013).\n   \n   Sumarsam's recent research focuses on the intersections between religion and performing arts\, examining discourses of transculturalism\, the performing arts\, and Islam among the Javanese. He is the recipient of a number of fellowship grants and awards\, including the National Endowment for the Humanities and the American Council of Learned Societies fellowship (2016-17)\, Indonesian Bintang Satyalencana Cultural Award (2017)\, the International Gamelan Festival Literacy Award (2018)\, and Yale Institute of Sacred Music Fellowship (2019-20). He was recently named the 2018 honorary membership of the Society for Ethnomusicology.\n\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.

SUMMARY:Performance:*CANCELED* Department of Performing Arts Technology Seminar: Jennifer Hsieh
DESCRIPTION:**In accordance with the Unversity-wide measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19\, this performance has been canceled.**\n\nWhen is a sound heard as noise? How does one communicate what is noise to others? Drawing upon ethnographic research on Taiwan’s present-day noise control system\, this talk examines the transformation of aural experience into contrasting modes of representation: decibel measurements and audio recordings. While decibel measurements are valued by government officials as objective\, quantifiable indicators of noise\, audio recordings are commonly used by Taipei city residents as an alternative\, contextualized method to document the presence of noise. The emergence of two competing forms of “making noise” calls attention to the unique challenge of reproducing aural experience so that it may be recognizable and shared by others. In this talk\, I argue that Taipei residents and environmental inspectors participate in an economy of machine listening\, consisting of the decibel meter and home recording device\, that aims to reconfigure auditory experience from the individual to the social. While acoustic ecologist R. Murray Schafer has drawn attention to the denigrating effects of mechanical reproduction on the auditory environment\, residents and state actors in Taiwan actually come to know noise through the tools of mechanical reproduction.\n\nJennifer Hsieh is currently working on a book project\, tentatively entitled From Festival to Decibel: Making Noise in Urban Taiwan\, which is a historical and ethnographic study of the scientific\, bureaucratic\, and audiovisual practices underlying the production of environmental noise from early twentieth-century Taiwan to the present. Dr. Hsieh examines the efforts of residents\, policy makers\, and environmental inspectors to transform the fleeting qualities of sound into a regulatory object. By analyzing noise control practices of three separate political regimes in Taiwan\, Dr. Hsieh investigates how perceptual acts of hearing and listening are tied to geopolitical questions of citizenship and belonging.\n\nDr. Hsieh has worked in a number of capacities to facilitate equity and inclusion for students\, such as tutoring bilingual youth\, developing leadership skills among underrepresented students\, and mentoring international students. Dr. Hsieh's background in community-based public service in Dallas and Boston further informs Dr. Hsieh's commitment to supporting students from diverse backgrounds\, including those from first-generation and immigrant households. In Dr. Hsieh's teaching and mentoring\, Dr. Hsieh work towards providing an inclusive learning environment for students by attending to different learning styles\, linguistic competencies\, and knowledge practices.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CANCELLED: Ninth Annual Richard K. Osborn Lecture—Kairos Power: From University Conception to Mission-Driven Start-Up
DESCRIPTION:Fluoride-salt cooled\, high-temperature reactors (FHRs) combine existing technologies in a novel way\, using high-temperature fuels from gas-cooled reactors with a low-pressure molten salt coolant.  In the last decade\, U.S. national laboratories and universities have addressed key scientific and technical questions for the licensing and deployment of FHRs\, and have developed pre-conceptual FHR designs with different fuel geometries\, core configurations\, heat transport system configurations\, power cycles\, and power levels.  Founded in 2016\, Kairos Power\, a mission-driven engineering company based in California\, has built on the foundation laid by U.S. Department of Energy sponsored university Integrated Research Projects to design\, license\, and demonstrate the KP-FHR.  This talk overviews the history of FHR technology and the major role played by universities\, as well as Kairos Power’s mission to enable the world’s transition to clean energy.\n\nSpeaker: Per F. Peterson is the Chief Nuclear Officer for Kairos Power\, where he guides nuclear technology review and advises on scientific and technical topics for KP-FHR technology development and licensing. Peterson also continues to hold the William and Jean McCallum Floyd Chair in the Department of Nuclear Engineering at the University of California\, Berkeley.\n\nDr. Peterson’s work has focused on high-temperature fission energy systems\, as well as topics related to the safety and security of nuclear materials and waste management. Peterson’s research in the nineties contributed to the passive safety systems in the GE ESBWR and Westinghouse AP-1000 reactor designs. Peterson also participated in the development of the Generation IV Roadmap in 2002\, and his 2003 Nuclear Technology article with Charles Forsberg and Paul Pickard identified salt-cooled\, solid fuel reactors as a promising technology\, today called fluoride salt-cooled\, high temperature reactors (FHRs).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CANCELLED - CSAS Lecture Series | The Price of Acceptability: On South Asian Inclusion and Exclusion in the US
DESCRIPTION:Unfortunately and due to unforeseen circumstances\, this event has been cancelled.\n\nBald will draw upon his past and ongoing historical research to trace out the ways that\, for more than a century\, South Asians have been simultaneously celebrated and vilified in U.S. popular culture and accepted only within narrowly and purposefully drawn limits as immigrants and citizens. He will examine a series of moments in South Asian American history - the \"India Craze\" at the turn of the 20th century\; the shifting immigration laws of 1917 and 1965\; the 1923 Supreme Court case of Bhagat Singh Thind\; the 2016 presidential election - assessing how the \"model minority\" idea functions not simply as a myth\, but as part of structures and processes of state discipline.\n\nVivek Bald is a scholar\, filmmaker\, and digital media producer whose work focuses on histories of migration and diaspora\, particularly from the South Asian subcontinent. He is the author of Bengali Harlem and the Lost Histories of South Asian America (Harvard University Press\, 2013)\, and co-editor\, with Miabi Chatterji\, Sujani Reddy\, and Manu Vimalassery of The Sun Never Sets: South Asian Migrants in an Age of U.S. Power (NYU Press\, 2013). Bald's articles and essays have appeared in Souls\, Dissent\, South Asian Popular Culture\, and the collections Black Routes to Islam\, Asian Americans in Dixie\, and With Stones in Our Hands: Writings on Muslims\, Racism\, and Empire. His documentary films include Taxi-vala/Auto-biography (1994) and Mutiny: Asians Storm British Music (2003). Bald is currently working on a second book\, The Rise and Fall of \"Prince\" Ranji Smile: Fantasies of India at the Dawn of the American Century\, as well as the transmedia \"Bengali Harlem/Lost Histories Project\" which includes a feature-length documentary film\, \"In Search of Bengali Harlem\"\, slated for broadcast on PBS in 2012\, and an accompanying web-based community history platform. He is Associate Professor in Comparative Media Studies and Writing at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a member of MIT's Open Documentary Lab.\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.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Lecture: Frida Escobedo
DESCRIPTION:Frida Escobedo is principal and founder of an architecture and design studio based in Mexico City. The projects produced at the studio operate within a theoretical framework that addresses time not as a historical calibration\, but rather a social operation. This expanded temporal reading stems directly from Henri Bergson’s notion of ‘social time\,’ and is articulated in conceptual works such as the El Eco Pavilion (2010)\, Split Subject (2013) and Civic Stage (2013). By these measures of practice and thought\, social time unfolds across multiple subjects at multiple speeds and modes of duration.\n\nThe work developed at Frida Escobedo´s studio ranges from art installation and furniture design to residential and public buildings. The firm’s projects include ‘You know you cannot see so well as by reflection\,’ a summer Pavilion designed for the central courtyard of the Victoria and Albert Museum in London\; the exhibition design for ‘Under the Same Sun: Art from Latin America Today\,’ curated by Pablo León de la Barra and organized by the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation\, New York in collaboration with the Fundación Jumex Arte Contemporáneo\; and ‘A very short space of time through very short times of space’\, an art installation commissioned by Stanford University.\n\nWhether working on public or private commissions\, Frida Escobedo aims to make use of disuse\, to find significance in the interstices of our lived environment\, to give equal attention to craft and to practicality. The intention to provide possibilities for growth and flexibility can be read as much in large scale social housing projects\, such as those developed for INFONAVIT\, as in more modest interventions like Casa Cruz Castillo or Casa Negra.\n\nNotable architectural projects include La Tallera\, the rehabilitation of the home and studio of the seminal Mexican painter David Alfaro Siqueiros (Cuernavaca\, 2012)\; Librería Octavio Paz (Mexico City\, 2013)\; and the renovation of the iconic 1950s Hotel Boca Chica (Acapulco\, 2010). Recent projects include ‘If we want to continue\,’ an intervention at the Neutra VDL Research House in Los Angeles\; “No. 9\,” an exhibition at the Arthur Ross Gallery\, Columbia University\; and large- scale installations at the Chicago Architecture Biennial and la Biennale d'Architecture d'Orléans.\n\nEscobedo is the recipient of the Architectural League of New York’s Young Architects Forum award (2009)\, the 2014 BIAU Prize\, the 2016 Architectural Review Emerging Architecture Award\, the 2017 Architectural League Emerging Voices Award and most recently\, the 2018 Serpentine Summer Pavilion. Frida Escobedo has been a visiting professor at Columbia University's Graduate School of Architecture\, Planning and Preservation (2015)\, Harvard Graduate School of Design (2016) and the Architectural Association of London (2016). In Fall 2017 she was named as the Howard A. Friedman Visiting Professor of Practice at UC Berkeley. During spring 2019 she was a visiting professor at RICE University and is currently teaching at Harvard Graduate School of Design.

SUMMARY:Performance:CANCELLED - Rose Cousins
DESCRIPTION:Rose Cousins just might be Nova Scotia's answer to Iris DeMent\, or even to Kate Wolf. Says Lifestyle Nova Scotia: \"Cousins writes songs strong on story\, melody\, and honest observations ... that demand an unaffected but beautiful voice.\" Her album \"We Have Made a Spark\" took home a Canadian Juno Award along with many other awards\, including a spot on NPR's Top 10 Americana & Folk Albums list. Rose spends part of her time in Boston\, where she's found strong support from the city's vibrant songwriting community\, but she maintains strong ties to her Canadian roots. Rooted in authenticity and conviction of voice\, the songs of Rose Cousins make you feel as though she sings for you\, about your life. \"We develop patterns that keep us from moving forward\,\" Rose says. \"It takes a deep breath and a bucket of courage to face the uncomfortable\, painful things we work so hard to avoid. Reward comes from recognizing the obstacle exists and pushing through fear.\" She comes to Michigan with a new album\, \"Bravado.\"
