SUMMARY:Exhibition:\"I have a crisis for you\": Women Artists of Ukraine Respond to War
DESCRIPTION:An exhibit curated by Grace Mahoney and Jessica Zychowicz\nFeaturing work by Kinder Album\, JT Blatty\, Oksana Briukhovetska (MFA\, Stamps School of Art and Design)\, Oksana Kazmina\, Sonya Hukaylo\, Svetlana Lavochkina\, Kateryna Lisovenko\, and Lyuba Yakimchuk.\n   \nIn February 2022\, the world witnessed the invasion of Ukraine and all-out war of aggression by the Russian Federation. Since this time\, massive casualties\, human rights violations\, and an unprecedented refugee crisis have ensued. Women artists of Ukraine have responded. They paint on found materials in refugee housing\, illustrate in bomb shelters\, photograph their shelled cities wearing press passes and bulletproof jackets. They document\, create\, and share. They post their daily journals and images on social media. They perform at the Grammy Awards. They know their message is powerful\, and the amplification of their voices is critical for victory in a very real battle for survival.\n   \nCurated by Grace Mahoney (U-M Slavic Languages and Literatures) and Jessica Zychowicz\, Ph.D. (Fulbright Ukraine and U-M Alumna)\, \"'I have a crisis for you': Women Artists of Ukraine Respond to War\" showcases work created by women artists in response to Russia’s war in Ukraine. The involved artists are painters\, photographers\, filmmakers\, poets\, translators\, and textile artists. Many of the works exhibited demonstrate a continuity of engagement by the artists with the topic of war\, especially since 2014 when the people of Ukraine gathered in a “Revolution of Dignity” against attempts by the Russian Federation to control the country’s independence resulting in Russia’s annexation of the Crimean Peninsula and backing of pro-Russian separatists in Ukraine’s east.\n   \nThe featured artists have also been selected because of their prominent interest and exploration of issues relating to gender in their works. The title for this exhibit comes from a poem of the same name by Lyuba Yakimchuk:\n“— our love’s gone missing\, I explain to a friend/ it vanished in one of the wars/ we waged in our kitchen/ — change the word ‘war’ to ‘crisis\,’ he suggests/ because a crisis is something everyone has from time to time.”\n   \nLike in Yakimchuk’s poem\, many of these artists approach the war with personal perspectives. They intertwine\, juxtapose\, and disrupt experiences of war with the intimacies of personal relationships\, the workings interior lives\, and perceptions of social roles. The featured artworks and documents engage a range of subjects from women volunteering as combatants to the processes of grieving and reflect ongoing discourses in Ukrainian feminist scholarship.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Traces
DESCRIPTION:Traces explores the relationship between the past and the present with a focus on the process of transformation as the connecting thread. The work consists of a series of collages and a collection of Polaroids that are accompanied by animations and video clips seen solely through the use of an augmented reality application (Virtual Mutations).\n\nThe scenarios presented in the static images act as literal stages for animated narratives. What once was a captured single moment echoes into motion\, creating an additional layer as to what will come thereafter. A dialogue between the past and the present is established and the app itself acts as a mediator between these tenses\, allowing the observer to have a glimpse of the afterthought\, that range from digital collages to Polaroid instant film.\n\nAbout the Artist\nCamila Magrane is a multimedia artist originally from Caracas\, Venezuela. Having a father from the U.S. and a mother from Venezuela\, she grew up alternating between both countries. Being fully exposed to two different cultures gave her a greater understanding of what it means to have various perspectives. After graduating from film school in Caracas\, she moved to San Francisco where she freelanced as an editor and camera operator. After discovering a passion for video games and interactive media\, Magrane obtained a BS in computer science with a concentration in game development. This eventually led her to working in the game industry as a cinematic artist.\n\nMagrane has been pursuing a professional career as a multimedia artist since 2017\, working within a variety of mediums\, from photography and collage to animation and virtual/augmented reality (AR). She has been most noted for the creation of her AR image-based work where she’s established a postmodern aesthetic by combining traditional darkroom techniques with the use of digital tools.\n\nPrior to her career in the arts\, Magrane worked as a community organizer and teacher\, creating and managing a curriculum for teaching 3rd-6th graders coding skills in public schools in Caracas\, Venezuela. She continues to be active in community work by giving talks and workshops revolving around the topics of art\, technology\, and the use of AR as a creative medium.\n\nCamila Magrane has exhibited work internationally in numerous exhibitions\, event spaces\, fairs\, and festivals. Selected exhibitions & clients include The Academy of Sciences\, The Exploratorium\, Themes+Projects Gallery\, Minnesota Street Project\, MUKEK\, Gray Area\, Sothebys\, and Adobe. Selected press inquiries include Forbes\, Adobe Blog\, Refinery29\, Lenscratch\, Las Vegas Weekly\, Las Vegas Review Journal\, and Open Studios Guide.

SUMMARY:Presentation:On the in vivo viscoelastic properties of the human lower birth canal during the first stage of labor: secondary analysis of data from the EASE trial
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nUp to 19% of nulliparous women sustain pelvic muscle injuries while giving vaginal birth. Since these injuries\, which are never repaired\, can have life-long sequelae including prolapse and incontinence\, it seems reasonable to try to prevent them. From a biomechanical perspective\, women with unusually stretch-resistant lower birth canals can expect longer labors and a higher risk for muscle and tissue injury. The goals of this dissertation were to (a) quantify the viscoelastic properties of the lower birth canal during the first stage of labor\, with special attention to the effects of age and body mass index\; (b) identify those at risk for a long second stage of labor\, as well as (c) an elevated risk for levator ani injuries. Following an introductory chapter (Chapter 1)\, we describe the biomechanics of a new device that dilates the lower birth canal (PREP\, Materna Medical\, LLC.\, CA) during the first stage of labor\, and its use in the ongoing multicenter EASE clinical trial (Chapter 2).\n\nNext\, we quantify the normal ranges of lower birth canal resistance to dilation (tension T) in 56 nulliparas during the first stage of labor. We found remarkable variation in birth canal wall tension across all subjects. Specifically\, the tension when reaching 55 mm dilation varied 5.5-fold and was 22% greater in older women and correlated strongly with both relaxation during the 5-minute hold and with the maximum tension (r= 0.80\, r = 0.59 with p<0.001)\, thus a reasonable predictor of resistance to lower canal dilation (Chapter 3). The stiffness of the initial 20 s ramp varied 6.8-fold and was 31% higher in older women.\n\nWe then demonstrated that the effect of the initial 20 s ramp-and-5 minute hold of PREP insertion on the viscoelastic properties of the lower birth canal can reliably be characterized using a fractional viscoelastic Zener model (FZM). In 61 nullipara\, the relative error for the 20 s ramp-and-5 minute hold using the FZM was 8.1 ± 3.6% and provided a relative prediction error in 60 minutes of dilation of 10.0 ± 5.4%. The FZM constant kβ\, an analog for the shorter timer constant\, was 33% higher in older women (Chapter 4). We then used the fractional Zener viscoelastic constants obtained in Chapter 4 to predict the duration of the second stage of labor and risk for levator ani injury. As labor outcomes are presently unavailable for the PREP subjects due to the ongoing nature of the EASE trial\, the model was tested on data from an earlier constant force PILOT dilator study involving 22 healthy women with available labor outcomes. Our prediction model identified both instances of LA injury and predicted 22% of the variation in the second stage of labor duration (Chapter 5). We conclude that the viscoelastic properties of the lower birth canal in the first stage of labor are responsible for nearly a quarter of the variation in second stage duration. When combined with existing obstetric variables\, the PREP dilator may prove helpful in the improved management of vaginal delivery.\n\nZoom Link: https://umich.zoom.us/j/99452208073 Meeting ID: 994 5220 8073 Passcode: 0000\n\nCommittee Chair(s): Dr. James Ashton-Miller

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Special Physics Department Seminar | Searching for Uncovered and Unexpected New Physics at the Energy Frontier
DESCRIPTION:Join the Seminar Zoom Link: https://umich.zoom.us/j/92784237259\n\nThe 2012 discovery of the Higgs boson with the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) was a groundbreaking achievement for high energy physics. Remaining puzzles such as dark matter confirm the need for beyond the Standard Model physics\, and the Higgs boson can be used as a compass to determine its nature. This talk focuses on novel searches for new physics with the ATLAS experiment on the LHC\, specifically for long-lived particles and heavy resonances. Such signatures make use of the Higgs\, along with advanced data analysis techniques such as machine learning and anomaly detection\, for broad and unprecedented sensitivity. The High Luminosity LHC\, the corresponding ATLAS detector upgrade\, and studies for future experiments are all crucial for the longevity of these searches. These topics are discussed in the context of cross-field collaboration and long-term strategic planning for the continued success of the field\, ensuring that no stone is left unturned in the effort to understand fundamental particle physics.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:LaToya Ruby Frazier: Flint Is Family In Three Acts
DESCRIPTION:Organized by Stamps Gallery in partnership with the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum\, Michigan State University\, and the Flint Institute of Arts.\n“No matter how dark a situation may be\, a camera can extract the light and turn a negative into a positive. In creating Flint Is Family In Three Acts\, I see the role of photographs as empowering and enacting visible change: in Act I\, the photographs bear witness and reclaim history\; in Act II\, the photographs reveal a hidden narrative\; in Act III\, the photographs are a catalyst for obtaining resources.”\n—LaToya Ruby Frazier \nFlint Is Family In Three Acts is a multi-part exhibition by renowned artist LaToya Ruby Frazier. For five years\, Frazier researched and collaborated with two poets\, activists\, mothers and residents of Flint\, Michigan\, Shea Cobb and Amber Hasan\, as they endured one of the most devastating ecological crises in U.S. history. Resulting in a monumental oeuvre of photographs\, video\, and texts Frazier developed Flint Is Family In Three Acts (2016-2021) to advocate for access to clean and safe drinking water for all regardless of race\, religion and economic status. The series records stories of surviving and thriving\, especially within racialized and marginalized neighborhoods in Flint\, to ensure that they remained visible in national debates concerning environmental justice. Drawing inspiration from the urgency in Frazier’s work\, which also sheds light on building equitable and inclusive futures\, Stamps Gallery\, part of the Penny W. Stamps School of Art &amp\; Design at the University of Michigan\, initiated a partnership with the Flint Institute of Arts and the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum at Michigan State University to bring this important exhibition together for the first time in Michigan. As co-presenters of this landmark exhibition\, our goal is to offer a creative pedagogical platform that reaches broader audiences across Michigan and beyond - Flint is Family: Act I (2016-2017) will take place at the Flint Institute of Arts\, Act II (2017-2019) at the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum\, and Act III (2019) at Stamps Gallery. The exhibition served as a catalyst to bring three disparate institutions together to deepen our understanding of individual and institutional agency in advocating for equity\, transparency and environmental justice in our respective communities\, while also highlighting the role of the artist as an agent for enacting positive social change.\n\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra\, Tracee Glab\, and Steven L. Bridges with the assistance of Jennifer Junkermeier-Khan\, Rachel Winter\, and Rachael Holstege.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Respond/ Resist/ Rethink 2022
DESCRIPTION:Water is the lifeblood of civilizations\, the center of cities\, the foundation of creation stories and the connective tissue of culture. Water is a life force\, without it humanity will cease to exist. Fresh water is necessary for the survival of all living organisms on Earth. The human body is made up of over 60% water and humanity cannot survive without it. Water is a vital life source that holds (and generates) power. It is nourishing\, quenching\, and refreshing but has also been commodified\, polluted\, and politicized. From the Standing Rock\, Leech Lake and Fond du Lac reservations\, to the straits of Mackinac where oil pipelines threaten important waterways\, to the polluted Mississippi River and drying Colorado River Basin\, to water shutoffs in Detroit\, PFAs in Ann Arbor\, and the Flint Water crisis (to name just a few)\, ensuring access to clean water (and the sustainable ecologies it supports) is an ongoing struggle that requires intersectional\, intergenerational\, and collective knowledge sharing\, discussion and action to protect. \nCall for Work\nStamps Gallery invites the undergraduate and graduate students of Penny W. Stamps School of Art &amp\; Design to participate in a poster and video exhibition that responds to the prompt: The care\, sustainability\, and access to free and clean water is arguably one of the most urgent and challenging issues of our time “What can you do to spread awareness of water issues and conservation measures?”\nEligible students: submit your work using our online form by Friday\, August 19\, 2022 →\nEligibility\nMust be a currently enrolled undergraduate or graduate major in the Penny W. Stamps School of Art &amp\; Design.Eligible students may submit one work (poster or video).Time-based work must be submitted as a YouTube/Vimeo link.Timeline\nThe deadline for submitting work is Friday\, August 19\, 2022\, 5pm\, EST. A selection committee composed of students\, faculty\, and Stamps Gallery staff will review submitted work in the weeks following the deadline.Students whose works are selected will be notified by September 2\, 2022. The exhibition will take place from September 15\, 2022 - January 14\, 2023.Why posters &amp\; videos? \nPosters can function as catalysts for change. For generations\, posters have served as an effective tool to circulate ideas and messages to the public. Visually striking\, and designed to draw attention from passersby\, posters can be conversation starters\, invite people to pause\, reflect\, spread the word\, get involved. They have been a powerful medium for many conceptual artists and graphic designers to create powerful images and messages that could respond to immediate issues and be distributed widely. Similarly\, video art was another exciting immediate medium for conceptual artists in the 1960s and 1970s as the technology became more accessible to the masses. Video art provided an alternative to the dominant broadcasting corporations. Artists made experimental films\, recorded performances\, and first-person narratives that were then exhibited and screened at galleries\, museums\, and events. Posters and videos continue to be salient features in the 21st Century to respond to urgent issues and questions facing the present moment. \nContext\nStamps Gallery is an incubator and lab for contemporary artists and designers to explore ideas and projects that catalyze positive social change. As the pandemic grips our nation it has exposed the social\, political\, and economic disparities that have disproportionately impacted Black\, Indigenous\, and People of Color. The world witnessed in horror and sadness the meaningless loss of African American lives with George Floyd\, Breonna Taylor\, Ahmaud Arbery\, among many others that we will never know. National and international outcries brought people together from multiple races\, genders\, and generations - on social media and in the streets - to publicly demand an end to police brutality\, structural racism\, and emphasizing that Black Lives Matter. What is the role of a university gallery in this time of crisis? How can we foster an inclusive platform for the students in our community to voice their ideas and foster a community based on equality\, belonging\, respect? We launched Respond/ Resist/ Rethink in the fall 2020 to kick off the fall semester with student work paired with the work of leading artists exhibiting at the Gallery.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Towards defining principles of cell fate plasticity
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nCell fate plasticity\, a cell’s ability to change its identity and function\, produces the wide variety of cell types needed to form\, maintain\, and regenerate all mammalian tissues. All forms of plasticity are tightly regulated to ensure proper tissue function\, and when aberrantly activated\, can contribute to pathological phenotypes\, including impaired tissue repair and tumorigenesis. Understanding how cellular identity is dysregulated during aging\, injury\, and disease may yield approaches that correct aberrant cell fate transitions with therapeutic applications. This dissertation seeks to characterize the factors that guard cell fate by integrating innovative experimental techniques\, including novel cell lines\, animal models\, and micro-engineered devices\, with high-throughput sequencing assays and bioinformatics tools that map molecular information to cellular responses. \n\nThe first three studies provide insights into the mechanisms that preserve the regenerative capacity of muscle stem cells (MuSCs)\, the resident stem cell population in skeletal muscle. MuSCs lie in a state of mitotic quiescence during homeostasis and activate upon injury to repair damaged tissue while also renewing the quiescent stem cell pool. Over time\, MuSCs accumulate intracellular damage that alters metabolic signaling pathways and transcriptional programs supportive of quiescence\, blunting the efficient regeneration of skeletal muscle. To further understand how MuSCs acquire dysfunctional molecular programs in old age\, we explore the roles of three-dimensional genome organization\, an underexplored histone modification (H4K20me1)\, and a conserved metabolic regulator (Sestrins) in mediating pathological gene expression both at rest and in response to injury. We find that natural aging in MuSCs is accompanied by subtle shifts in global genome architecture and metabolic signaling that are sufficient to induce aberrant regenerative trajectories. \n\nThe fourth and fifth studies describe continuing efforts to develop new models for engineering cell fate. In one study\, we identify barriers to cell fate transitions by reprogramming somatic cells such that a specialized cell fate is erased and a new identity is adopted. This process requires spatial remodeling of the epigenetic landscape that is constrained by interactions between peripheral heterochromatin and the protein scaffold that lines the interior of the nucleus. We show that manipulating components of the nuclear scaffold prior to reprogramming alters mechanical properties of the nucleus and peripheral heterochromatin organization\, which converge to drive changes in reprogramming dynamics. Finally\, we revisit a century-old hypothesis that tumor cells acquire enhanced metastatic potential through fusion with neighboring stromal cells that express pro-metastatic traits such as motility\, chemotaxis\, and tissue tropism. To investigate this concept\, we demonstrate the efficient production of bi-species heterokaryons from human tumor cells and mouse stromal cells in the brain metastatic niche\, which allows genetic and metabolic factors to be assigned to their parent cell by species identity. This approach will allow us to identify and inhibit trans-acting factors that promote malignant fate transitions. \n\nIn summary\, this thesis provides mechanistic insights into cell fate plasticity in varying health contexts and explores new models for deciphering cell fate regulation.\n\nCommittee Chair(s): Dr. Carlos A.

SUMMARY:Well-being:VIRTUAL | CEW+INSPIRE MIDWEEK MINDFULNESS GUIDED SITS
DESCRIPTION:RSVP here: https://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJAqceGoqDosHN15uxUlzCWWN6qwjNjSQpj_ \n\nJoin us in community to practice mindfulness meditation\, a life-enhancing skill that can be learned with consistent practice. This formal\, largely-guided\, practice utilizes evidence-based cognitive training that bolsters one's ability to handle stress\, poor mood\, and threat.  This weekly mindfulness practice encourages present moment\, non-judgemental\, awareness – noticing where your focus and attention are and continually inviting attention to current mind and body sensations in a kind and compassionate way.\n\nMindfulness meditation opens the possibility to pause\, gain perspective\, attend to the present\, and respond accordingly. In our ever-changing\, complex\, and challenging world\, mindfulness can provide grounding. As one form of contemplative practice\, mindfulness meditation can offer a framework to support a more skillful approach to navigating the demands of being human and support practitioners to build resilience and take compassionate action.\n\nWhether you are new to mindfulness meditation or are an experienced practitioner\, each session is designed to offer guidance and support to assist you. All are welcome to attend weekly or drop-in as their schedule allows.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Rings with bases and Schubert polynomials
DESCRIPTION:A category central to algebraic combinatorics is that of “rings with bases”. We’ll look at a very simple example\, the nil Hecke algebra\, and its action on polynomials in infinitely many variables. The resulting dual basis is the “Schubert polynomials”. Surprisingly\, these have positive coefficients\, which we will compute by counting “pipe dreams”.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:A Mean Field Game of Sequential Testing
DESCRIPTION:This talk introduces a mean field game for a family of filtering problems related to the classic sequential testing of a Brownian motion’s drift. In our formulation\, agents observe a private signal process and want to make a determination about an unknown binary state of nature. The game arises by allowing the drift of the signal process to incorporate information about the other agents’ actions and enforcing that each agent must minimize an associated Bayes risk. In this setting we are able to develop a deep understanding of the solution structure\, establish the existence of a mean field equilibrium\, and study the equilibria numerically. To the best of our knowledge\, this work presents the first treatment in the literature of a tractable mean field game with information filtering\, optimal stopping\, and a common unobserved noise. This presentation is based on recent joint work with Yuchong Zhang at the University of Toronto.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RTG Seminar in Geometry\, Topology and Dynamics.          The Mozes Shah Theorem
DESCRIPTION:The Mozes-Shah theorem classifies limits of measures which are invariant under unipotent flows. This is the most common situation that arises in applications of measure classification in Number Theory and Geometry.\nI will show some cool examples of this theorem and explain the main steps in the proof of the theorem (relying on the linearization technique of Dani-Margulis).\nIt will be an RTG talk\, mainly focusing on examples.\nIf time permits I will explain a quantitative version of the theorem due to Einsiedler-Margulis-Venkatesh.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CAS Lecture |  Kings of Rome\, Rulers of Heaven: Conceptions of Sovereignty and Empire in Syriac and Armenian Historiography
DESCRIPTION:This event will also be offered via Zoom at http://umich.zoom.us/j/96552630099\n\nIn their recently edited volume published in 2021\, Philip Michael Forness\, Alexandra Hasse-Ungeheuer\, and Hartmut Leppin collected a wide array of contributions that examine common concepts of good rulership in eastern Christian communities in the global Mediterranean. Taking seriously their invitation to build on the volume’s conclusions and identify productive areas of future research\, this lecture will explore concepts of sovereignty and empire in Syriac and Armenian historiography as evidence for the ontology of the Roman state in late antiquity and early Byzantium.\n   Although Tim Greenwood\, Hartmut Leppin\, and Philip Michael Forness have treated similar questions about rulership in Syriac and Armenian literature in their contributions in this volume\, they have done so separately and without comparison. Wolfe argues that it is in fact through comparison that we discover that\, while Syriac terminology for Roman sovereignty was both diachronically and synchronically extremely stable\, Armenian terminology was not\, reflecting\, among other things\, the evolution of Roman imperial titulature in Byzantium. This contrast\, suggests divergent experiences of empire in Syriac- and Armenian-speaking communities during a period of transformation and change that reshaped the late antique Near East into the early medieval Middle East.\n\nDr. James (Jimmy) Wolfe is a historian of Roman institutions and the Roman imperial administration in the late antique and early medieval Middle East. His research examines the evolution of the late Roman state in this period of transformations by re-reading evidence from early Christian communities in the eastern Mediterranean using non-traditional frameworks. He studies dialectics of cultural exchange in northern Mesopotamia\, experiences of and impact of empire in Armenian- and Syriac-speaking communities\, and the replication of Roman imperial discourses in Greek\, Syriac\, and Armenian historiography. James received his PhD in Greek and Latin from the Department of Classics at The Ohio State University in December 2020. He has held appointments as a Lecturer in the Department of Classics at The Ohio State University and as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Hellenic Studies at Princeton University.

SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:Traces Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:Please join us as we celebrate the opening of Camila Magrane's exhibition *Traces *in the Institute for the Humanities Gallery. Camila Magrane will join our curator Amanda Krugliak for a conversation about the exhibition and her practice. Free and open to all!\n\nAbout the Exhibition\nTraces explores the relationship between the past and the present with a focus on the process of transformation as the connecting thread. The work consists of a series of collages and a collection of Polaroids that are accompanied by animations and video clips seen solely through the use of an augmented reality application (Virtual Mutations).\n\nThe scenarios presented in the static images act as literal stages for animated narratives. What once was a captured single moment echoes into motion\, creating an additional layer as to what will come thereafter. A dialogue between the past and the present is established and the app itself acts as a mediator between these tenses\, allowing the observer to have a glimpse of the afterthought\, that range from digital collages to Polaroid instant film.\n\nAbout the Artist\nCamila Magrane is a multimedia artist originally from Caracas\, Venezuela. Having a father from the U.S. and a mother from Venezuela\, she grew up alternating between both countries. Being fully exposed to two different cultures gave her a greater understanding of what it means to have various perspectives. After graduating from film school in Caracas\, she moved to San Francisco where she freelanced as an editor and camera operator. After discovering a passion for video games and interactive media\, Magrane obtained a BS in computer science with a concentration in game development. This eventually led her to working in the game industry as a cinematic artist.\n\nMagrane has been pursuing a professional career as a multimedia artist since 2017\, working within a variety of mediums\, from photography and collage to animation and virtual/augmented reality (AR). She has been most noted for the creation of her AR image-based work where she’s established a postmodern aesthetic by combining traditional darkroom techniques with the use of digital tools.\n\nPrior to her career in the arts\, Magrane worked as a community organizer and teacher\, creating and managing a curriculum for teaching 3rd-6th graders coding skills in public schools in Caracas\, Venezuela. She continues to be active in community work by giving talks and workshops revolving around the topics of art\, technology\, and the use of AR as a creative medium.\n\nCamila Magrane has exhibited work internationally in numerous exhibitions\, event spaces\, fairs\, and festivals. Selected exhibitions & clients include The Academy of Sciences\, The Exploratorium\, Themes+Projects Gallery\, Minnesota Street Project\, MUKEK\, Gray Area\, Sothebys\, and Adobe. Selected press inquiries include Forbes\, Adobe Blog\, Refinery29\, Lenscratch\, Las Vegas Weekly\, Las Vegas Review Journal\, and Open Studios Guide.
