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. She is also the art director of the “Ukrainian Unofficial” research project\, which compiles archives of Ukrainian unofficial art of the second half of the twentieth century.\n\nArtist website: https://www.flickr.com/photos/196914550@N02/albums\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

They received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Wayne State University and an MFA at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC). Nour Ballout’s practice grapples with the ways looking can manifest as both resistance and violence while negotiating the tensions among visibility\, documentation and surveillance. Through photography\, archive and space making\, their work interrogates the ways the naturalization of structures of power manifest within bodies\, built environments\, and communities.\n\nNour currently serves on the Detroit Institute of Arts contemporary arts advisory group. They are the recipient of many awards\, fellowships and grants that include the 2023 Modern Ancient Brown Fellowship\, the ICI EXPO Curatorial Research Fellowship\, the 2022 Michigan Arts and Cultural Council Grant\, the 2021 Transforming Power Fund Grant\, the 2019 Knight Arts Challenge Award\, Kresge Arts in Detroit Gilda Award and many more.

These units of memory\, or engrams\, are poetic portals through which we time travel\, gaining hindsight and foresight\, more meaning and greater wisdom\, and hopes for a future less encumbered. Beyond reminiscences of technicolor sunsets\, perhaps memories are simply the brain's records of endless repetitions and familiar neural pathways.\n\nIn an era of iPhones\, Macbooks\, Instagram\, and Facebook\, everything that’s happened to us in recent memory is at our immediate disposal and made to look better than the original … every day of every year\, every meal of every trip\, every postcard destination. With constant 24/7 access to the newsreel of our own lives\, are we losing our innate ability to remember what matters in the process? \n\nIn Digital Engrams\, L.A. artist Gabriela Ruiz combines sound\, video\, light and sculpture to create unexpected environments that challenge our sensibilities. The installation considers how images function on and off the screen\, and how memories real and curated are the crux of personal and cultural identity. Who do we think we are in this life or the eternal life on the internet hereafter? \n\nRuiz’s spatial inquiries grapple with the potential erasure of the rituals of memorialization and the richness of material culture so important in her own Latinx heritage and to her sense of self.\n\n–Amanda Krugliak\, IH Arts Curator\n\nAbout the artist:\nGabriela Ruiz is a self-taught artist whose practice blends diverse forms of expression and media\, including sculpture\, video\, painting\, and apparel design. Her sculptures incorporate found objects and industrial materials\, such as thrift store furniture and insulation foam. Strongly influenced by growing up in L.A.’s San Fernando Valley to immigrant parents from Mexico\, Ruiz’s practice is a reflection of the DIY work ethic she was raised under\, the vibrancy of Mexican cultural and artistic traditions\, and her exposure to subculture and fantasy at a young age as a means to escape the realities of daily life.\n\nOne of L.A.’s rising young talents\, she presented her solo show Stream at the Palm Springs Art Museum in 2022\, part of the museum's Outburst project.\n\n*Gabriela Ruiz is the Jean Yokes Woodhead Visiting Artist at the Institute for the Humanities. This exhibition is part of LSA's fall 2023 Art & Resistance theme semester.* UID:110231-21824618@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/110231 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Theme Semester,Visual Arts LOCATION:202 S.

Through collaborations with her immediate community\, and also using herself as a subject\, Lee draws inspiration from the quotidian\, creating offbeat images that aim to preserve this moment in time\, (re) examine memories (especially those clouded by confusion) all the while asking questions around identity and existence.\n\nLee holds a BFA from the Maurice Kanbar Institute of Film and Television at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts. She is currently pursuing her MFA in Photography at School of the Art Institute of Chicago.\n\nIn Lee’s photographic exploration\, she investigates the profound connection between places and structures and the echoes of trauma that inhabit them. “Holding Places” is an exhibition that immerses viewers into a visual narrative\, inviting them to witness the power of space as holders and conduits for personal memory.\n\nBy reconstructing these places by hand in model scale and rendering them not as they were\, but how she experienced them\, she is able to navigate intimate details and hidden narratives that exist within them. The process of crafting these miniatures becomes a meditative contemplation\, giving Lee time to sit and reflect on these past events.\n\nThrough Lee’s lens\, they capture the visual manifestations of the ghosts of the past. The photographs offer glimpses into spaces where anguish\, conflict and distress have left their imprints\, sometimes visible\, sometimes buried beneath layers of time (and self preservation).

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.

Until 2018\, women did not have access to football stadiums\, and before 2020\, there was no official women’s league. On the face of it – there was no women’s football in Saudi Arabia. But the story of women’s football that was unfolding before and away from the headlines is a completely different one. In the Saudi capital of Riyadh\, a grassroots-initiated women’s football league has been active since 2007. The Riyadh Women’s Football League was initiated and organized by young Saudi women eager to play\, and the first season was played in 2008 with eight teams participating. Since the first season\, between six and eight teams have participated every year. With no official support the women have kept the league going\, though challenges related to everything from renting a field to finding qualified coaches resulted in only two of the teams involved in the first season still active today. Drawing on the story of the first Riyadh Women’s Football League\, this talk looks back on the emergence of women’s football in Saudi Arabia in the early 2000s and how pioneering women built a foundation for women’s football in Saudi Arabia.\n \n Charlotte Lysa is a researcher at the Department of Culture Studies and Oriental Languages\, University of Oslo. She is currently part of the project FORM – Football and Religion in the Middle East\, where she focuses on Saudi Arabia. Lysa holds a PhD in Middle East studies (2019) from the same university\, for which she studied women’s grassroot football in Qatar and Saudi Arabia. She was a visiting fellow at Qatar University (2016)\, and at the King Faisal Center for Research and Islamic Studies in Riyadh (2017\, 2020 and 2021-2022).\n \n This event is part of the CMENAS Fall Colloquium 2023: “The MENA world after a MENA World Cup” 555 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor.\n \n Colloquium questions: cmenas@umich.edu\n \n This series is funded in part by the Center for Middle Eastern and North African Studies (CMENAS) U.S. Department of Education Title VI National Resource Center (NRC) grant.\n \n To register\, go to https://myumi.ch/8eA8n.

The 2023 Respond/Resist/Rethink exhibition will include art of a variety of mediums and will be displayed in four galleries across all three U‑M campuses\, including Stamps Gallery (Central Campus\, Ann Arbor)\, Duderstadt Center Gallery (North Campus\, Ann Arbor)\, Riverbank Arts (Flint)\, and Stamelos Gallery (Dearborn).\n\nThe arts play a central role in shaping cultural and political narratives. Artists\, designers and creatives of diverse backgrounds have been at the forefront of social change. Creative processes have been used time and again to reveal under-told stories and to resist simple narratives. Regardless of one’s personal politics\, an artwork’s potential to change hearts and minds is urgent and necessary. Respond/​Resist/​Rethink invites students to leverage their creativity to (re)imagine what they can do to create a more just and equitable community in the spaces that they inhabit.\n\nNote: The Duderstadt Center will close slightly earlier\, on Dec 1.\nDuderstadt Center Gallery Hours: Noon-6pm Tues-Fri\, Noon-6pm Sunday UID:114465-21832921@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114465 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Activism,Art,Exhibition LOCATION:Duderstadt Center - Gallery, Room 1019 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231101T163727 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231106T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231106T133000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social Movements Workshop DESCRIPTION:Join us for the Social Movements Workshop\, \"Politicide and Exile: the relationship between political violence and migration flows\,\" with Leydy Diossa-Jimenez.

Foresight is the ability to think effectively about how the future might be different\, so you can prepare for anything\, and start to make changes in your own life\, and in society\, for the better. \n\nAt IFTF\, Gabe Cervantes helps lead custom forecasts\, IFTF Foresight Essentials trainings\, and speaking engagements across various industries and sectors. A leading strategist in scaling foresight\, Gabe works closely with large organizations to help them foster an environment that encourages the development and application of foresight among the next generation of future leaders and top-tier leadership. Before joining IFTF\, Gabe helped startups in Silicon Valley understand consumer needs to develop stronger sales and go-to-market strategies. Forgoing a career in law\, he leaned into his training as a diasporas scholar from Williams College in Williamstown\, Massachusetts\, where he earned a Bachelor's Degree in American Studies with a dual focus on Latino/a and Africana Studies. Gabe shares his learnings pro bono with communities of color and individuals who are the first in their families to attend college.\n\nPlease register here: https://tinyurl.com/25m9jbac\n\nSponsored by Dr. Devon Powers\, Communication + Media\, as part of the Trends and Futures lecture series.

IceCube is sensitive to tracks as produced by charged current interactions from muon Neutrinos and cascades produced by other flavors and the neutral current. Due to recent machine-learning-based advances in reconstruction\, the precision of the pointing and background rejection have improved significantly\, and IceCube has been able to detect neutrino emission from the Galactic Plane. Localized emission opens up a wide variety of new physics searches\, many based on astrophysical flavor ratios. IceCube as a detector\, the recent Galactic Plane result\, and the use of IceCube as a vehicle to detect Beyond the Standard Model Physics are discussed.

Africans currently make up 16% of the world’s population and are projected to comprise 25% of the world’s population by 2050 and 40% by 2100\, according to UN projections. By 2100\, half of all babies in the world will be born in Africa. Investing in research efforts in this population will advance psychology’s broader goals of human progress and understanding. \n\nEmotions are fundamental to the human experience\, and wellbeing is important to understanding the human condition and the social influences that impact individual experience. Emotion experiences have been understudied in African contexts. Using data from 2 African countries and the United States\, this presentation will explore culturally-shaped patterns of emotion expression\, experience\, and regulation\; cultural emotion norms\; and cultural understandings of wellbeing.

I will discuss various dynamical properties of automorphisms that turn out to be group invariants of the corresponding free-by-cyclic groups (e.g. growth type). In particular\, certain dynamical hierarchical decompositions of an automorphism determine canonical hierarchical decompositions of its mapping torus.

A New Kind of Progressive: How Poles\, Venezuelans\, and Germans Reimagined Latin America DESCRIPTION:In the 1950s and 1960s\, Caracas—like many Latin American capitals—played host to global Cold Warriors of various ideological stripes. What makes the Venezuelan story unique is the degree of synergy achieved as U.S. agents of “political warfare” found common ground with European representatives of a political family known as Christian Democracy. In the homegrown Latin American vocabulary of “progressivism\,” East European exiles and West European powerbrokers alike saw a chance to marginalize Marxism by remaking Latin America into a breeding ground for distinctively Catholic visions of justice in politics\, economics\, and society. Polish political refugees served crucially as liaisons between the CIA-backed Free Europe Committee\; West Germany’s governing political party\, the CDU\; and emerging Latin American networks of Catholic lawyers\, academics\, and anti-junta dissenters. \n\nIn this lecture\, mid-century Caracas emerges as a place where Latin Americans and Europeans from both sides of the Iron Curtain pioneered a new kind of transnational politics: at once Catholic\, progressive\, and anti-communist. Our guide will be the Polish émigré Janusz Śleszyński\, who served as gatekeeper for much of the networking that built Venezuelan Christian Democracy into a continental powerhouse.\n\nPiotr H. Kosicki is a global and transnational historian of modern Europe. His early work focused on Catholic intellectual partnerships linking France and Poland\; this research yielded *Catholics on the Barricades: Poland\, France\, and “Revolution\,” 1891-1956* (Yale\, 2018)\, in addition to peer-reviewed articles in *Contemporary European History\, Modern Intellectual History\, Slavic Review\,* and *Vingtième Siecle: Revue d’histoire*. After curating a project about the Second Vatican Council’s impact on Eastern Europe (*Vatican II behind the Iron Curtain*\, 2016) and another concerning historical memory of the Katyń Massacres\, Kosicki’s research has turned to the global history of the political family known as Christian Democracy\, about which Kosicki has co-edited 3 books (*Christian Democracy across the Iron Curtain*\, 2017\; *Christian Democracy and the Fall of Communism*\, 2019\; and *Political Exile in the Global Twentieth Century*\, 2021). Piotr H. Kosicki contributes frequently to journals of public opinion\, including *Commonweal\, the Nation\,* the *TLS*\, and *The Washington Post*.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at weisercenter@umich.edu.

This lies at the heart of the powerful Riemann-Hilbert approach to these equations. In this talk\, I will discuss recent extensions of this approach to the q-difference setting\, focusing on the q-analog of Painlevé VI derived by Jimbo and Sakai. I will show how\, analogous to the classical theory\, a corresponding monodromy manifold can be constructed and the global asymptotics of solutions can be derived by analysing associated Riemann-Hilbert problems. The special role of classical-function solutions in this framework will also be highlighted.\n\nThis is based on joint work with Nalini Joshi.

During rapid growth\, Rho maintains the transcriptome health\, but how is Rho activity modulated during dormancy or stress\, conditions prevalent in natural habitats? Rho is a hexameric RNA helicase that adopts active closed-ring and inactive open-ring states\, and the interconversion between these states is thought to be a key checkpoint in Rho control. I will discuss two mechanisms by which ligands that bind at Rho subunit interfaces restrain ring dynamics. The Sm-like Rof protein binds at the extended RNA-binding site of Rho\, occluding its RNA- and RNA polymerase-binding sites and locking the hexamer open. The stress alarmone (p)ppGpp binds to the ATP-binding site and stabilizes the open ring\, triggering phase separation into inactive higher-order oligomers and extended filaments. These and other anti-termination mechanisms are expected to silence Rho under conditions when unrestrained termination would be lethal.\n\nKeywords: transcription\; termination\; Rho helicase\; stress response\; phase separation UID:109679-21822695@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/109679 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biosciences LOCATION:Taubman Biomedical Science Research Building - ABC Seminar Rooms CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230927T115718 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231106T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231106T173000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:STS Speaker Series. In the Flow: Affect and Protocol in US Medical Practice DESCRIPTION:Why do biomedical clinicians sometimes practice contrary to their own expertise? Medicine is often described as a modernist project in search of a universal “view from nowhere.” In this talk\, I show how this view systematically breaks down due to the impingement of sensation\, emotion\, affect and social forces into the embodied “flow” of moving in and against time in clinical practice. Using ethnographic and autoethnographic data\, I present paradoxes of counter-protocol medical decisions from a variety of contexts in the U.S. that cease to be paradoxical if we step into clinicians’ embodied worlds.\n\nScott Stonington\, MD/PhD is Associate Professor of Anthropology and Internal Medicine at the University of Michigan.

These line bundles vary in the Picard space of the curve\, and the geometry of that space determines much of the geometry of the embedding. In this talk I will explore the generalizations of this study to higher rank vector bundles and their moduli spaces\, where we replace the base curve by the projective plane. The properties of Brill-Noether loci inside moduli spaces of sheaves on surfaces are largely unknown\, but in recent joint work with Yeqin Liu and Woohyung Lee\, we have established many of their fundamental properties on the projective plane.

Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Bachelor of Fine Arts in Theatre Performance: Directing.\n\nDario Fo's *Accidental Death of an Anarchist* is a 1970 political satire that concerns the accidental (or not) death of a supposed anarchist rail worker who fell (or was pushed) to his death from a fourth-story window of the police headquarters in Milan. It is based on the 1969 Piazza Fontana bombing and the real-life defenestration of a man during police interrogation. The play itself is a fictionalized version of the aftermath\, following the officers responsible as they attempt to rewrite the truth of the event\, all while being egged on by a Maniac with a penchant for disguises and making clowns out of cops.

For over four decades the Wooten Brothers have been recognized as some of the most innovative musicians in existence and are collectively known as one of the most talented and dynamic band of brothers the world has ever known. Since they were young\, the brothers have been a musical tour-de-force redefining the limits of jazz\, funk\, soul\, R&B\, rock\, and bluegrass. Sons of military parents\, they spent their early years living in different states including Hawaii\, California\, and Virginia where they shared stages with the likes of Curtis Mayfield\, The Temptations\, Ramsey Lewis\, Stephanie Mills\, War\, and other artists. In the mid 80’s\, the brothers released an album as The Wootens for Clive Davis’ Arista Records. This will be the brothers’ first tour together as a band since the untimely death of their saxophone-playing brother Rudy a few years ago.\n\nVictor Wooten\, a five-time Grammy Award-winning artist\, has graced the cover of Bass Player Magazine five times. He is a founding member of the eclectic group Bela Fleck and the Flecktones and is recognized as one of the greatest living bassist today often drawing comparisons to Jaco Pastorius\, and was named one of the “Top ten bassist of all time”by Rolling Stone Magazine. He is also an award-nominated author\, naturalist\, and music educator and has been running his unique music/nature camps since the year 2000. Wooten’s camps are held at his own Wooten Woods\, which is just outside of Nashville. In 2010\, he started his own record label\, Vix Records\, which has released a series of acclaimed recordings over the last few years..\n\nJoseph Wooten has a dizzying list of talents that is impressive even by the Wooten clan’s standards. Currently the keyboardist for the Steve Miller Band (since 1993)\, he is also a composer\, orchestrator\, motivational speaker\, and has been showcased as an amazing vocalist since he was a child. In 1981\, Joseph became known as the “overnight accordion player” when he literally auditioned\, bought an accordion\, and began performing within a matter of a few days for the Busch Gardens amusement park in Williamsburg\, VA. He has collaborated with the likes of Whitney Houston and Kenny G\, and when not touring with Miller\, leads his own band\, performs with Freedom Sings\, and even helps out his little brother as keyboardist\, vocalist\, and composer for The Victor Wooten Band. Roy “Futureman” Wooten\, also a five-time Grammy Award winner\, is best known for his masterful drumming and percussion skills and is a founding member Bela Fleck and the Flecktones. Roy\, a seasoned drum set player\, is mostly known for his frenzied\, inimitable on-stage performances heightened by his surreal choice of instruments: his trademark inventions “The Drumitar” and “RoyEl” keyboard. He is also a philosopher\, researcher\, filmmaker\, and educator. His impressive solo career and “Black Mozart” projects scan the genres of classical\, jazz\, soul\, gospel\, and spoken word.\nRegi Wooten’s signature guitar style of chording\, slapping\, tapping and frenzied strumming has earned him world-wide notoriety and comparisons to Jimi Hendrix\, Frank Zappa and Chuck Berry. In recent years\, Regi has performed with many artists including the legendary Ginger Baker. Regi\, known worldwide as “The Teacher”\, currently teaches music in Nashville\, TN and has taught many notable musicians. He was teaching his little brothers Joseph and Victor when he himself was only 9 years old. One of his early\, but lasting contributions was the composition of his and his brother’s high school Alma Mater.\n\nTogether The Wooten Brothers bring an uncanny level of experience\, originality\, and musical expertise to the stage. Their shows will be a high-energy\, super-funky\, artistic blend of styles including original songs and classics. In short: these brothers are the real deal and their shows are not to be missed.\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4219/4220 for more detail.
