SUMMARY:Film Screening:CMENAS Virtual Viewing: *Stray*
DESCRIPTION:For a limited time\, we are sponsoring free access to this film's virtual viewing. For instructions\, please email cmenas@umich.edu with the subject “Request to watch ‘Stray'”\n   \nAbout the film:\nThrough the eyes of three stray dogs wandering the streets of Istanbul\, STRAY explores what it means to live as a being without status or security. As they search for food and shelter\, Zeytin\, Nazar and Kartal embark on inconspicuous journeys through Turkish society that allow us an unvarnished portrait of human life — and their own canine culture.\n   \nZeytin\, fiercely independent\, embarks on solitary adventures through the city at night\; Nazar\, nurturing and protective\, easily befriends the humans around her\; while Kartal\, a shy puppy living on the outskirts of a construction site\, finds refuge with the security guards who care for her. The disparate lives of Zeytin\, Nazar and Kartal intersect when they each form intimate bonds with a group of young Syrians who share the streets with them.\n   \nWhether they lead us into bustling streets or decrepit ruins\, the gaze of these strays act as windows into the overlooked corners of society: women in loveless marriages\, protesters without arms\, refugees without sanctuary. The film is a critical observation of human civilization through the unfamiliar gaze of dogs and a sensory voyage into new ways of seeing.\n\nCo-sponsor: Michigan Theatre

SUMMARY:Exhibition:For Your Eyes Only
DESCRIPTION:Please Note: This exhibition is designed to be viewed through the gallery window on Thayer St.\n\nYasmine Nasser Diaz is the 2021 Efroymson Emerging Artist at the Institute for the Humanities.\n\nFor Your Eyes Only is the latest iteration of multidisciplinary artist Yasmine Nasser Diaz’s bedroom installation. At first glance\, the constructed space is a shimmering homage to the bedroom disco—a sanctuary for uninhibited dance and self-expression. It has also become the setting from which many personal videos are made and shared widely on social media\, where platforms such as Instagram and TikTok have blurred the boundary between public and private. Projected into the space is a montage of casual videos shared by female-identifying and non-binary persons of SWANA* origin dancing solo in their rooms. To some\, the videos may seem innocent and innocuous\, but they can also be seen as acts of defiance that assert the autonomy of bodies that have been surveilled\, scrutinized\, and censored throughout history. Alongside these intimate moments is a separate reel showing political figures and protest movements from the SWANA region. The images demonstrate the fluctuating attitudes and regulations impacting human rights and freedoms based on gender\, and exemplify how—whether we are physically at a protest or sharing our physicality in virtual spaces—our bodies are engaged in some level of risk.\n*Southwest Asian/North African\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Virtual Family Week | Self-Care: Health & Wellness in the Ancient World
DESCRIPTION:During the pandemic we have heard a lot about “self-care\,” but what exactly does that mean? At the most basic level\, it is how we take care of ourselves. The food we eat\, the exercise we do to stay healthy\, and the medicine we take when we get sick. However\, self-care is more than that. It includes all the things we do to stay happy and healthy. That could be taking a walk or a run outside\, or doing some arts and crafts. Maybe it’s playing a favorite sport with friends\, or trying a new recipe. \n\nDuring this virtual Family Week\, we’ll learn about how people in the ancient Mediterranean practiced self-care. We’ll even try out some of their techniques for ourselves.\n\nWe kick off the week with an introductory tour about ancient self-care. Be sure to join us on Sunday\, March 28\, at 2 PM. We will take a closer look at some objects in the Kelsey collection related to health and wellness. Join us on Zoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/96083862910.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:CSAS | 10th U-M Pakistan Conference - Religious Landscapes
DESCRIPTION:Full conference details and schedule here:\nhttps://myumi.ch/xm2B4\n\nRegistration for this Zoom workshop is required: \nhttps://myumi.ch/0Wn4k\n\nReligious identity in South Asia has been shaped within the context of a fraught and contentious history\, ranging from issues of “communalism” in colonial India to the question of “radicalization” and political Islam in post 9/11 Pakistan. Yet\, religious practice has developed in relation to longstanding sacred geographies and networks in South Asia\, intersecting with modern identity formations in unusual and unexpected ways. In this conference\, we will explore the relationship between religion\, identity\, historical networks and sacred landscapes to understand the formation of religious thought and practice in Pakistan. Through a multidisciplinary approach\, this conference aims to cultivate a discussion of transnationalism\, sectarianism\, marginality\, inter and intra-religious dynamics. We will engage with the work of scholars and artists from Pakistan\, Europe and the United States concerned with a variety of religious groups in Pakistan\, and the complex ways that religious practice has been shaped through interactions between distinct identities\, not only along the lines of religion\, but also gendered and social difference. While focusing on Pakistan\, we hope to challenge prevalent assumptions about the current configuration of borders and explore deeper and continually relevant connections between distinct religious spaces and practices in South Asia.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Van Loo Family Saturday Morning Physics VIRTUAL Event | Graduate Student Presentations
DESCRIPTION:Pre-recorded lecture followed by “live” Q&A\nVirtual Presentation Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tc340N56GvY\n\nInstruments to Study Rocket Plume Surface Interactions (PSI) on the Lunar Surface\nAriana Bueno (U-M Climate and Space Sciences and Engineering & Applied Physics)\nIn space exploration\, the rocket plume-surface interaction (PSI) can lead to the ejection of large amounts of energetic particles\, potentially damaging the spacecraft\, its instruments\, and associated hardware. Thus\, understanding PSI processes is paramount to the safety of the lunar exploration program and beyond. In this presentation\, Ariana will highlight how her research has led to a better understanding of PSI by developing in-flight instrumentation and conducting ground tests to simulate PSI.\n\nHistotripsy: Crushing Cancer Cells with Acoustic Cavitation\nRyan Hubbard (U-M Biomedical Engineering & U-M Applied Physics)\nHistotripsy is a non-invasive cancer-treatment approach using focused beams of ultrasound. In this presentation\, Ryan will highlight the results of his research\, illustrating histotripsy's ability to destroy tumor cells and elicit anti-tumor immune responses. He will describe the basics behind ultrasonic pulse generation\, acoustic cavitation\, and how the mechanism of histotripsy compares to other external beam treatments such as X-ray irradiation.   \n\nWe celebrate the Van Loo Family Lecture on this occasion.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:CSAS U-M Pakistan Conference Keynote | Glimpsing History through Literature's Window: Religious Sentiments\, Emotional Styles\, Punjabi Poets
DESCRIPTION:Part of the 10th U-M Pakistan Conference - Religious Landscapes\n\nFull conference details and schedule here:\nhttps://myumi.ch/xm2B4\n\nRegistration for this Zoom workshop is required:\nhttps://myumi.ch/0Wn4k\n\nMuch of the discussion around Sufi poets and poetry emphasizes their appeal to a broad audience that transcends religious community\, caste and class. Reading and listening audiences take this ecumenical or pluralistic message as characteristic of such poets and of Sufism at large. The purpose of my talk is to examine this premise through a focus on specific Sufi poets from the Punjab\, using their work to analyze how they imagined and configured Muslim identities. Important questions emerging from such an investigation include how religious identity is configured\, what purposes lie in behind choices of linguistic register\, and how one expresses emotions and values in different contexts.\n\nJamal J. Elias is the Walter H. Annenberg Professor of the Humanities and Professor of Religious Studies at the University of Pennsylvania. A recipient of many grants and awards from the Guggenheim Foundation\, the American Council of Learned Societies\, and the (U.S.) Social Science Research Council (among others)\, he has lectured and published extensively on a broad range of subjects relevant to the medieval and modern Islamic world. He is the author\, coauthor\, or editor of nine books and numerous articles dealing with a range of topics in Islamic history\, thought\, literature\, and art and his writings have been translated into at least ten languages.  His most recent books are *Alef is for Allah: Childhood\, Emotion and Visual Culture in Islamic Societies* (Berkeley\, 2018)\; *Aisha’s Cushion: Religious Art\, Perception and Practice in Islam* (Cambridge Massachusetts\, 2012)\; and *On Wings of Diesel: Trucks\, Identity and Culture in Pakistan* (Oxford\, 2011).
