It centers on the titular “manga map”\, a rare Japanese travel map of Japan (ca. 1934) that is densely packed with manga illustrations detailing local folklore\, history\, architecture\, flora/fauna\, and more. The exhibit also includes works of Japanese art and cartography in order to consider the dichotomy between artistry and geographic depiction\, and how that plays with the definition of a “map.”\n\nAlongside the exhibit\, the manga map is also part of a new digital humanities preservation project at the library using the online crowd-sourcing platform Zooniverse\, where the map will be transcribed/translated and made into a fully interactive digital map. More information is available at the exhibit.\n\nBoth the exhibit and the Zooniverse project were created as a summer internship capstone project by Joel Liesenberg\, a dual-degree master’s student in International and Regional Studies focusing in Japanese studies and the School of Information focusing in digital curation.

Death threats and assassinations\, politically motivated sectarian violence\, rampant corruption\, and de-Ba’athification policies only further destabilized an educational system already heaving under the devastation of wars\, authoritarian regimes\, and harsh economic sanctions.\n\nThis exhibit invites solidarity with the academics targeted\, but also deeper connection with their experiences and the richness of Iraqi academic life through their written legacies and the testimonies of surviving academics\, many of whom were driven into exile.\n\nThis exhibit in the north lobby is available during Hatcher Library hours (https://myumi.ch/p75dd).\n\nA companion online exhibit\, Tracing Iraqi Artists: From Shadow to Light (https://myumi.ch/n7xre)\, explores modern Iraqi struggle and resistance through contemporary visual art and connection to Iraqi artists and educators. The curators of the online exhibit\, 2023 Michigan Library Scholars Zainab Hakim and Serena Safawi\, hope to center surviving Iraqi artists as they explore their national and artistic identities and respond to the cycles of violence caused by the Iran-Iraq war\, sanctions\, and occupation.

In the years immediately preceding the dam’s construction\, the American University in Cairo directed a large-scale project of salvage anthropology with funding from the Ford Foundation. \n\nThis endeavor yielded hundreds of photographs of al-nuba al-qadima or “Old Nubia” the term affectionately used by community members. Over the past sixty years\, Nubians have used these images to cultivate a collective memory of a lost homeland. From Aswan to Alexandria and beyond\, community members are salvaging their own stories from this anthropological archive\, reshaping it as a sentimental terrain of solidarity across time\, space\, and circumstance. \n\nThis selection of photographs includes persons\, places\, and practices as well as glimpses of the presence of the photographer and researchers. Both online and offline\, Egyptian Nubians continue to share and re-mediate these photos as they recall their historical displacement and revitalize their heritage for future generations.\n\nThe exhibit is curated by Yasmin Moll\, assistant professor of anthropology\, and coordinated by Nesrien Hamid\, doctoral student in anthropology\, with funding from the University of Michigan's Humanities Collaboratory.\n\nFor a deeper dive\, visit the companion exhibit\, Narrating Nubia\, at the Duderstadt Center on North Campus. It delves into the archaeological\, anthropological\, and community narratives of both ancient and modern-day Nubia spanning Egypt and Sudan.

Guardian Passage: The Power of Ukrainian Cultural Memory in the Face of War DESCRIPTION:*Presented in association with UMS*.\n\nIn Guardian Passage\, artists Irina Bondarenko and Katya Lisova employ the tools and imagery of traditional Ukrainian art forms to face down the existential threat brought about by Russia’s war on Ukraine. Bondarenko’s installation forms a causeway for visitors to encounter Ukrainian poetry and the art form of motanka dolls in a newly imagined configuration. Motanka are guardian symbols assembled from the clothes of deceased ancestors. Bondarenko’s ceramics illustrate motanka in situations responding to the war\; each graphic is accompanied by a poem or a song. These ceramics act as lifeboats\, which ferry the Ukrainian resistance through the flood waters of destruction. Lisova’s series of tapestries explore the power of cultural memory to grow in times of war. Traditional embroidery explodes on the surface of photo collage\, where images of the past and present collide on a single surface. Like a lifeline\, red thread connects these projects\, weaving through clay and fabric\, bringing tradition to bear on new significances and the cultural will to survive. This exhibition is part of the LSA theme semester on “Arts and Resistance.”\n\nIrina Bondarenko is an emerging ceramic artist\, a native of Ukraine\, and a biostatistician at the University of Michigan. Irina has been with the University of Michigan Biostatistics Department for more than 20 years. and published over 50 peer-reviewed articles. Along with her career at the School of Public Health\, for the last 10 years Irina has been pursuing her interest in ceramics. Her work was featured in over a dozen national shows\, the 24th San Angelo National Ceramic Competition\, and the “Strictly Functional Pottery National Show” in 2021 and 2022\, and\, most recently\, the Regional Biennial Juried Sculpture Exhibition at Marshall Fredericks Sculpture Museum.\n\nArtist website: https://www.ibondceramics.com/\n\nKatya Lisova is an artist\, designer\, and art historian. Born in Kyiv\, she is a graduate of the Institute of Decorative and Applied Arts and Design named after Mykhailo Boichuk (2009) and the National Academy of Cultural and Artistic Leaders (2018). Since 2019 she has been teaching at the Kyiv State Academy of Decorative and Applied Arts and Design named after Mykhailo Boichuk. Her work is in the field of artistic textiles and digital graphics.

Such ARWs will not only significantly accelerate research\, but also enable new research possibilities.\n\nIn January\, 2023\, MIDAS organized an ARW mini-symposium. Experts who are leading this trend nationwide presented their vision and effort to develop and employ ARWs. U-M faculty members and the speakers also participated in intensive research roundtable discussions on the potential of ARWs in various research domains.\n\nThe upcoming mini-symposium will feature U-M faculty members who have developed and embedded AI-driven components in their research workflows. Their ingenious work will form the basis of faculty roundtable discussions focusing on identifying particularly impactful ways to employ AI in the research workflows\, developing plans and collaboration to build such AI-driven workflow components.\n\nAll are welcome to attend the featured speaker presentations. Faculty members who are interested in using ARWs for their research are strongly encouraged to also attend the research roundtable. Sign-up is strongly encouraged for both activities.\n\n*Please note that photography will be in use during this event.

Tremel\, who teaches ceramics at the Penny W Stamps School of Art and Design\, describes her work in the following way:\n\n“My pots are made with a wooden paddle and round stone. They are slowly raised by beating\, turning\, and drying the clay repeatedly until the walls are thinly stretched and the form is filled with life. I pierce the fragile\, unfired walls of the vessel with a tapered tool and then painstakingly carve the holes with a thin blade. The piercings give visual access to the interior of the form and create a tension with the fragility of the ceramic material. When the pot is illuminated the light fills the vessel and physically embodies the energy that it contains. The piercings allow this energy to flow beyond the walls of the form and into the surrounding space. The soft patterns of light are an exhalation\, filling the dark room with a sense of quiet repose. I invite you to stop and take a breath.”\n\nThe public is invited to an opening reception for the artist on October 20\, from 4-6 pm\, and the public is invited.

Throughout the European Renaissance (1300-1700)\, many book illustrations were exclusively ornamental\, while others focused on enhancing the meaning of the text. However\, as the pages on display attest\, all these illustrations share a common ground: they reveal the aesthetic and intellectual fashions first proposed by Italian artists of the 1400s\, who were strongly committed to the recovery of the past of classical antiquity.\n\nThe word “Illumination\,” from the Latin illuminare\, “to enlighten or to illuminate\,” refers to the embellishment of a manuscript or early printed book with luminous colors\, notably gold and silver. This illumination was prominent in the frontispiece\, or first page of text\, which included the decoration of its borders and initial letter\, and even miniatures\, that is\, scenes with an independent narrative. With the introduction of movable-type printing in 1454\, these illuminations would be gradually replaced by woodcuts\, which were printed from a woodblock that had been cut by knife along the grain of the wood.\n\nAvailable during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://myumi.ch/2m7d4).\n\nJoin us on September 13 for a talk by Pablo Alvarez\, curator of the exhibit.

DESCRIPTION:Come explore the intricate and interlocking world of Sarah Buckius’ “!!!techn010ffspring!!!” where feminist art meets science and the history of invention. On view at Lane Hall as part of U-M Arts Initiative’s themed semester on Arts & Resistance\, “!!!techn010ffspring!!!” critiques the patriarchal paradigms of the STEM field by highlighting the history of women inventors. This exhibition brings conceptual invention in fine art and performance to the disciplines of information technology\, robotics\, and engineering. Buckius creates “technoffsprings”: complex machines that weave together the history of inventions related to the gendered labor of women\, especially regarding women’s social roles as caregivers and subjects of care themselves. \nTrained as an engineer and an artist\, Buckius’ machines are intentionally complex\, layered\, and illogical or absurdly logical. In the nature of women’s caregiving\, they teeter between order and chaos. Her “digital tinkerings” tell epic tales of motherhood\, technology\, female bodies\, and commerce—both personal and externalized through women’s inventions and early forays that bridged caregiving and commerce. Buckius' work proposes improvisation as a form of absurdist resistance to\, and alternative to\, patriarchal\, capitalist\, production-based\, and seemingly rational\, useful\, logical systems. \n“!!!techn010ffspring!!!” is open for viewing M-F\, 9am-4pm or by appointment. University of Michigan instructors can email LaneHallExhibits@umich.edu to request a group tour or schedule a class visit.\nThis project was made possible by a grant from the Arts Initiative at the University of Michigan and co-sponsored by U-M’s Department of Women’s and Gender Studies and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender with support from the Santa Cruz County Arts Council.

Finding support to navigate such situations is important\, yet challenging\, especially for early-career astronomers and underrepresented minorities. This contributes to the structural exclusion of those that experience or witness workplace incivility from our astronomy community.

This conference seeks to not only channel the spirit of intellectual kinship D generously shared with us but to also create space for rigorous engagement with D’s central research questions. We have curated a day of learning that invites an interdisciplinary audience of critical thinkers to key questions related to Black queer kinship\, history\, and possibility.\n\nThe conference will bring together D’s beloved family and friends\, interdisciplinary scholars\, as well as U-M faculty\, graduate students\, and alumni who\, over the course of two days\, will reflect on D’s most catalytic research interests as well as their profound scholastic engagement with Black queer kinship.\n\nThis event will be livestreamed here: https://umich.zoom.us/my/bqkhconference\n\nConference Schedule:\nThursday\, October 19\nRackham Assembly Hall\n\n6:45 pm | Welcome + Degree Conferral Ceremony\nAngela Dillard\, LaKisha Simmons\n\n7:15 pm | Arts Showcase and Celebration\nAhya Simone\n\nFriday\, October 20\n1014 Tisch Hall\n\n10:00 am | Welcome + Conference Keynote\nDarius Bost\n\n11:00 am | Roundtable 1: Celebrating D as student\, friend and relative\nJennifer Jones\, Eshe Sherley\, M Aziz\, Casidy Campbell\n\n1:30 pm | Roundtable 2: Kinship & the Healing Work of Queer Theory\nSaraEllen Strongman\, Sydney Tunstall\, Mix Mann\, Mara Johnson\n\n3:15 pm | Roundtable 3: Current topics in Theory and Histories\nAndrea Bolivar\, LaVelle Ridley\, Cassius Adair\, Gabriel Johnson\n\n4:45 pm | Closing\nAnna Almore\, Adrian King UID:113825-21831793@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/113825 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Activism,African American,art,Center For Racial Justice,Department Of American Culture,Diversity Equity and Inclusion,gender,history,LGBT,poetry reading,Rackham,social impact,social justice LOCATION:Tisch Hall - 1014 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230220T131204 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231020T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231020T160000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Featured Exhibits DESCRIPTION:Featuring work by Gina Gibson\, UN/EARTH explores science and art from a mile underground. Located in the former Homestake gold mine in Lead\, South Dakota\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) houses experiments that give us a better understanding of the universe. The location—deep underground—provides a near-perfect environment for experiments that need to escape the constant bombardment of cosmic radiation\, which can interfere with the detection of rare physics events. Built in collaboration with the University of Michigan\, the LUX-Zeplin is the world’s most sensitive dark matter experiment. SURF also hosts experiments in biology\, geology and engineering.\n\nGina Gibson is an internationally exhibiting artist and professor of Graphic Design at Black Hills State University. In 2019\, Gibson became the first artist in residence at the Sanford Underground Research Facility. Gibson's work celebrates the search deep below the surface for beauty in the old and new\, the light and dark\, and the known and unknown.\n\nUN/EARTH was developed in collaboration with the U-M Department of Physics\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility and Black Hills State University.

In the realm of biological macromolecules such as proteins and nucleic acids\, form determines function\, so visualizing the three-dimensional structures of molecules is key in researching the ‘tiny’ macromolecules that perform vital functions in our cells. In Biophysics 421\, under the guidance of Markos Koutmos\, Assistant Professor of Biophysics & Chemistry\, and Liz Tidwell\, PhD candidate in Biophysics\, students created models with digital modeling software and brought them to life via 3D printing. This exhibit showcases the 3D printed molecules\, scaled up to better reveal the structures that inform\, make\, break\, modify\, and move within the body.

Latent class models (LCMs) have been used to derive dietary patterns from dietary intake assessment\, where each class profile represents the probabilities of exposure to a set of diet components. However\, LCM-derived dietary patterns can exhibit strong similarities\, or weak separation\, resulting in numerical and inferential instabilities that challenge scientific interpretation. This issue is exacerbated in small-sized subpopulations. To address these issues\, we provide a simple solution that empowers LCMs to improve dietary pattern estimation. We develop a tree-regularized Bayesian LCM that shares statistical strength between dietary patterns to make better estimates using limited data. This is achieved via a Dirichlet diffusion tree process that specifies a prior distribution for the unknown tree over classes. Dietary patterns that share proximity to one another in the tree are shrunk towards ancestral dietary patterns a priori\, with the degree of shrinkage varying across pre-specified food groups. Using dietary intake data from the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos\, we apply the proposed approach to a sample of 496 US adults of South American ethnic background to identify and compare dietary patterns.\n\nhttps://zhenkewu.com/ UID:113640-21831298@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/113640 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:seminar LOCATION:West Hall - 340 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231004T094850 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231020T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231020T230000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Clements Bookworm: A Library Looks at Audubon\, Both His Birds and His Background DESCRIPTION:John James Audubon (1785-1851) was arguably the most famous artist/naturalist of the nineteenth century\, and his massive\, four-volume work\, The Birds of America (1827-1838)\, remains an exceptional achievement of avian art\, a rare and exceedingly valuable book now found mostly in major scholarly institutions and libraries\, including the University of Michigan. \n\nBy the twentieth century\, the name Audubon had become emblematic of bird appreciation and\, more broadly\, natural history\, and the National Audubon Society emerged as one of the most significant environmental organizations in the United States. \n\nIn recent years\, however--certainly since 2020--John James Audubon's personal background as a slaveholder and opponent of abolition has come to taint his reputation and create a problem of identity for the organization that bears his name. This talk discusses Audubon's legacy\, as both artist and racist\, inviting us to explore the connection between a brilliant but flawed figure and the continuing impact of his remarkable art.

The exhibition examines the Amistad Dam in Del Rio\, the largest dam in Rio Grande that is jointly managed by the United States and Mexico and other contested sites in the region to unravel layered histories\, connections\, and tensions present in West Texas through film\, sculpture\, installation\, collage\, and drawing. \nThe experimental documentary film Teaching of the Hands is the center point of the exhibition - as it combines oral histories\, reenactments\, and archival footage to narrate a complex history of colonization\, migration\, and ecological precarity\, Told from the perspective of Juan Mancias\, Chairman of the Carrizo Comecrudo Tribe of Texas\, scenes from the present day are woven together with those from 4\,000 years in the past to investigate the transformation of Somi Se’k* by way of industry\, infrastructure\, and private property. \nEmerging from the research to create the film\, the exhibition includes an immersive installation of surveying flags and tools\, series of drawings and collages\, and a collection of original watercolors from the 1930s by artists and amateur archaeologists Forrest and Lula Kirkland that depict the ancient rock art of the Lower Pecos\,that expand on concepts in The Teachings of the Hands. The watercolors\, rarely seen plein air paintings\, are on loan from the Texas Archaeological Research Laboratory at the University of Texas\, and document the original forms and vibrant colors of murals that were still visible in the 1930s before flooding\, erosion\, and human interaction damaged or destroyed them. This exhibition has been shown in various iterations at Ballroom Marfa\, the University of Texas at Austin\, the Rubin Center for the Visual Arts\, the Museum of Modern Art in New York and University of California\, Santa Barbara\, and will be shown in Michigan and the midwest for the first time. The Blessings of the Mystery brings together an expansive body of work that sheds light on vital histories\, living memories and Indigenous knowledge-systems embedded within the land well before the colonial boundaries between Mexico and the US were established - advocating for environmental justice and recognition of Indigenous rights and cosmologies.

When COVID took Tina’s life\, Taylor started ordering identical versions of their childhood games and toys on eBay. As she assembled these objects\, Taylor recalled a memory of climbing with Tina through the skeletal frameworks of unfinished houses in the 1970s. Late at night\, the girls would pick their way through floorless rooms and speculate about their future inhabitants. In this spirit of imaginative experimentation\, Taylor began taking apart her eBay acquisitions. Gathering\, breaking\, sawing\, splicing\, painting\, gluing\, layering\, and reassembling these toys became\, for her\, a way to probe the complicated nature of a lost friendship and to explore the multidimensional nature of grief. Ultimately\, Taylor built the framework of an unfinished house to evoke those she once explored with Tina. Taylor describes the house as a “container for grief.” \n\nSeptember 28 - October 27 \nOpening & Reception: September 28\, 1-3pm \nGalleryDAAS \n\nAbout this series of events: \nArt & Resistance Fall 2023 Theme Semester Programming \nSponsored by Arts Initiative\, UMMA\, American Culture\, Latina/o Studies\, the Department of Film\, Television and Media & the Museum Studies Program \nPresented by Charlotte Juergens\, 2nd year Ph.D. student in American Culture \nhttp://bit.ly/UMafterthought UID:112261-21828704@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/112261 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:american culture,Art,arts,arts at michigan,Arts Initiative,Culture,Department Of American Culture,Exhibition,Film,food,Free,Graduate,In Person,Latina/o Studies,Media,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Haven Hall - galleryDAAS CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231104T123159 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231020T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231020T143000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Business Case Interview Overview & Workshop + Recruiter Q&A DESCRIPTION:During this workshop\, we will walk through and practice a business case interview.

They are the central objects of interest in field theories and quantum computing and measured directly in experiment. Response functions are intrinsically causal. In equilibrium and steady-state systems\, they correspond to a positive spectral function in the frequency domain. This talk shows that response functions define an inner product on a Hilbert space and thereby induce a positive definite function. The properties of this function can be used to reduce noise in measured data and\, in equilibrium and steady state\, to construct positive definite extensions for data known on finite time intervals\, which are then guaranteed to correspond to positive spectra.

In this talk\, we answer a question of Stembridge on finding a permutation basis for the permutation representation this cohomology carries. Our method involves an S_n-equivariant bijection between a basis for the Chow ring of the Boolean matroid and codes introduced by Stembridge. There is a parallel binomial Eulerian story related to the stellahedral variety. We also find a permutation basis for the permutation representation on the cohomology of the stellahedral variety. This involves the augmented Chow ring of a matroid introduced by Braden\, Huh\, Matherne\, Proudfoot and Wang. Along the way\, we also obtain some new results on augmented Chow rings.

Analogously to the theory of divisors on curves\, we can define the divisor group and Picard group of a graph. These two theories are then related by the specialization map: a map from Pic(X) to Pic(G)\, where G is the dual graph of the special fiber of a certain model of X. We then give an example of how the combinatorics of the graph can be used to determine information about the original curve by computing the gonality of a generic bidegree (m\,n) curve on P1 x P1.

Over the years\, sixty two successive lava flows\; thirty-three from Gamarri\, and twenty-nine from Dobi cliffs respectively were sampled for paleomagnetism. The study at Gamarri revealed reverse-normal-reverse (R-N-R) polarity intervals with anomalous directions at the base. Paleointensity experiments showed two successive periods of low field intensity (<15μT lowest part of the section and ~20μT from upper flows with full normal polarity direction) separated by a brief period of field recovery. Original unspiked K/Ar age experiments made at five levels had given a mean age of 2.07±0.05 Ma for the entire section\, while a follow-up 40Ar/39Ar experiments gave ages ranging from 2.118±0.057 to 2.063±0.044 Ma for the normal polarity interval while an older age 2.34±0.092Ma for the bottom. Along the Dobi cliff\, ~50 Km NE of Gamarri\, only second volcanic record to compare with\, showed R-N-R-N polarity sequences from bottom to top with a striking similar anomalous direction at the base. K/Ar age determination of the normal polarity interval showed a mean age of 2.18±0.06 Ma for the top normal interval and attempts of K/Ar at the base was not successful. A “W” shaped paleointensity variations with unique extreme low mean value of 6.4μT and 3.6μT at the onset and end of the lower normal polarity interval was detected. 40Ar/39Ar experiments along a third section in Norhern Dobi (Iso-Dedai) gave a N-R sequence with a paleointensity mean values of 6.83±0.04μT\,and 40Ar/39Ar experiments on the sequence gave a mean 40Ar/39Ar age of 2.15±0.031Ma. The radio-isotopis ages in the three localities indicate the normal polarities identified have statistically different ages\, a result not supported by field geology and paleomagnetism. Hence the normal polarity identified at the three sections could be correlated with the Reunion event(s) using the available Geomagnetic Polarity Time Sclae (GPTS). This notion is supported by the independent magnetostratigraphic study at Omo Valley (southwest Ethiopia)\, where the well-dated Shungura Formations\, revealed the two Reunion events.

The National Laboratories have supported NASA’s mission for decades\, including the development of irradiation experiments\, testbeds\, modeling and simulation\, and so much more. Recently\, ORNL has worked closely with NASA on technology maturation for Nuclear Thermal Propulsion\, Fission Surface Power\, and Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generators. Instrumentation and controls are particularly difficult due to the extreme environment conditions including temperatures from cryogenic to >2000C. This presentation will discuss how ORNL is meeting the needs of technology maturation for Space Nuclear.\n \nBio\nDr. N. Dianne Bull Ezell is the group leader of the Nuclear and Extreme Environment Measurement Group\, in the Nuclear Energy and Fuel Cycle Division\, at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. She completed a Ph.D. in 2016 focusing on signal processing of EMI rejection for Johnson Noise Thermometry\, funded by the Small Modular Reactor Program. Her research interests are harsh environment experiments\, system architecture and integration\, advanced instrumentation development for nuclear systems\, and low-noise front-end rad-hard electronics. She has supported the Instrumentation and Controls technology maturation program under NASA’s Space Technology Mission Directorate in support of Space Nuclear Propulsion since 2018. Dianne became PI of the program at ORNL in 2022\, overseeing the development of a non-nuclear instrumentation and autonomous controls testbed user facility\, high-temperature irradiation testbed\, and dynamic system modeling and simulation of NTP integrated engine.

The Boyle family lives in squalor\, with Captain Jack’s laziness and alcoholism contributing to their financial struggles while his wife Juno works tirelessly to provide for the family. When the family receives news of an unexpected inheritance\, their hopes rise and they dream of a better life. However\, their newfound fortune soon proves illusory\, and their lives become entangled in a web of betrayal\, deceit\, and tragedy.\n\nWith humor and tragedy\, O’Casey depicts the harsh realities of life in a war-torn society and the impact of ideological divides within a single family. Of the first performances of DruidO’Casey in Galway\, Ireland in July\, The Arts Review observed\, “To see one of O’Casey’s classics is to be astonished at the manner in which he courageously articulated\, challenged\, and shared an emerging Ireland. To see all three together is to go deeper and ask how far have we traveled\, or failed to? Many of the questions raised by O’Casey prov[e] prescient\, and alas\, still relevant.”\n\nThis performance is part of Seán O’Casey’s Dublin Trilogy\, which includes The Plough and the Stars\, The Shadow of a Gunman\, and Juno and the Paycock.

Darrell has written some of the sharpest country songs of the 21st century (like the Dixie Chicks' \"Long Time Gone\")\, and he can play just about anything with strings. Darrell's song \"Hank Williams' Ghost\" was named Song of the Year at the 2007 Americana Music Awards. Darrell has toured with Robert Plant and The Zac Brown Band\, and\, as a singer\, songwriter\, and instrumentalist he's been an artist to whom many in Nashville turn for a shot of inspiration. His music features guitars (including lap and pedal steel)\, keyboards\, electric and acoustic bass\, harp\, bouzouki\, harmonium\, mandolin\, banjolin\, cello\, glockenspiel\, drums\, and various other percussion instruments. Darrell has two recent albums\, “Darrell Scott Sings the Blues of Hank Williams” and “Jaroso.”\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4215/4216 for more detail.
