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.

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.

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:110231-21824622@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.

The title of the 2-day conference\, part of the Nam Center’s Perspectives on Contemporary Korea conference series\, references the visceral\, emotional experiences embedded in and conjured by Korean music performance across many eras\, genres\, and locations. In the 21st century\, Korean music defies geopolitical boundaries and the confines of genre as artists draw on their own experiences and communities to express the lived realities of the contemporary Korean experience. The music we explore in this symposium is inclusive of long-standing traditions and new creations on the Korean peninsula\, music performance in the Diaspora\, and collaborations drawing and expanding upon Korean musical aesthetics. The participants in this two-day event will explore the many notions of Korean music on and beyond the Korean peninsula\, through space and time\, and reimagined via multiple encounters and experiences.\n\nThis event will be a combination of traditional paper presentation\, roundtables\, and workshops. There will also be at least two performances during the two-day event. The event will be free & open to the public. Attendance will be available both in-person and virtual.\n\nThis event is a program feature of the U-M Fall 2023 Festival of Asian Music. https://smtd.umich.edu/asian-music-festival/ UID:113566-21831164@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/113566 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Asia,Korea,Music,Performance LOCATION:LSA Building - 1040 Multipurpose Room CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231125T063140 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231110T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231110T110000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:RBC Capital Markets Coffee Chats & Networking DESCRIPTION:RBC Capital Markets is going to your campus\, and we are excited to meet you!\n\nWe will be hosting a coffee chat and networking session\, which will allow you to speak one-on-one with RBC professionals!

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.

Few modern states are free of dark histories of exclusion\, forced assimilation\, or more sanguinary solutions to the remnants of imperial diversity. Investigating states that were founded on dispossession of indigenous peoples\, we examine the Turkish past and the histories of the United States\, Israel\, and Australia\, among others. Turkey is not unique\, but its achievement in ridding Anatolia of Armenians and Assyrians\, like the removal of Native Americans from continental United States\, was admired by and positively referred to by Adolph Hitler as he planned his own genocidal policies in the lands to the east of Germany.\n\n Our conference examines the ideological and strategic choices made by Ottoman and Turkish nationalist leaders as they attempted to “modernize” their states through coercive demographic policies and the deployment of violence\, which became enshrined as part of the repertoire of governance in the Kemalist state. Having eliminated the bulk of Christians\, the heirs of the Ottomans repressed their former allies\, the Kurds\, turning what they conceived as a homogeneous ethnic nation-state into a mini-imperial state colonizing its non-Turkish subjects.\n \nJust as the controversial 1619 Project in the United States has contested the origins of the American republic by seeking its beginnings with the first importation of African slaves\, rather than the revolutionary events of 1776\, so shall this workshop explore the formative events and processes from the initiation of systemic reforms in the Ottoman Empire in 1789\, through the Tanzimat reforms of 1839 and 1876\, the coup d’état of 1908 and the Armenian Genocide of 1915-1916\, to the 1918 fall of the empire\, the 1919-1922 rise of the Kemalist nationalist movement\, and the 1923 founding of the Republic of Turkey.\n\nFor the schedule of events\, visit https://ii.umich.edu/armenian/news-events/all-events/workshops/november-2023-from-the-foundational-crime.html\n\n---\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at armenianstudies@umich.edu.

Using granular data on flooding and card expenditures\, we show that Harvey-induced flooding caused a modest increase in establishment exit. Using a model of consumer demand\, we find that Harvey-induced exits reduced consumer welfare by less than 2% on average\, but that welfare decreased by more than 12% in the hardest-hit census tracts. We discuss how to optimally allocate business aid after natural disasters.

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.

In this talk\, I will present statistical significance of clustering (SigClust) as a cluster evaluation tool for high dimensional data. To begin\, we define a cluster as data originating from a single Gaussian distribution and frame the assessment of statistical significance of clustering as a formal testing procedure. Addressing the challenge of high-dimensional covariance estimation in SigClust\, we employ a combination of invariance principles and a factor analysis model. I'll also discuss an enhanced SigClust using multidimensional scaling (MDS) on dissimilarity matrices. SigClust for hierarchical clustering will be presented as well. Simulations and real data\, including cancer subtype analysis\, validate SigClust's effectiveness in assessing clustering significance.\n\n\nhttps://yfliu.web.unc.edu/ UID:109435-21822024@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/109435 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:seminar LOCATION:West Hall - 340 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231016T165604 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231110T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231110T210000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Veterans Week 2023 DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan-Ann Arbor is proud to host the 2023 Veterans Week celebration\, running Nov. 6-10. \n\nThis annual event features a week of programming that educates and celebrates the experiences and sacrifice of those who have served our country.

Later\, we are introduced to a black family\, but their few seconds on-screen confirm the process of “adding and stirring\,” or incorporating diverse bodies in limited ways\, hoping that their screen time will be enough for the diversity checkboxes.\n While my observational narratives introduce readers to gaming tech’s limited potential and its inaccessibility\, this talk also illustrates the possibilities that appear when inclusivity is at the core of design. Thus this talk will provide an intersectional exploration into (in)accessible gaming technologies\, and morphs into a discussion of inclusive design\, highlighting various design approaches to increasing accessibility in gaming technologies.

All undergraduate and graduate students enrolled at the Ann Arbor\, Dearborn\, or Flint U-M campuses in Fall 2023 are invited to apply to this juried exhibition that explores what can be done to create more just and equitable futures in the 21st Century and beyond.\n The 2023 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). \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 by offering alternate models and ways of thinking\, making and creating that do not perpetuate dominant regimes. 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. \nRespond/ 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.\nThroughout the spring\, summer\, and fall of 2023\, U-M students submitted artworks through an open call process. A final list of artworks were chosen for the exhibition by a Selection Committee made up of U-M faculty\, staff\, and students. \n\nThe 2023 RRR Selection Committee members are: \nPedram Baldari\, Jim Cogswell\, Laura Cotton\, Nalani Duarte\, Adrienne Frank\, Benjamin Gaydos\, Kathryn Grabowski-Khairullah\, Quinn Hunter\, Ikalanni Jahi\, Jennifer Junkermeier-Khan\, Joe Levickas\, Srimoyee Mitra\, Kathi Reister\, Chloe Schans\, and Grace Sirman. \nThe 2023 RRR Curatorial Committee members are: \nLaura Cotton\, Nalani Duarte\, Benjamin Gaydos\, Kathryn Grabowski-Khairullah\, Srimoyee Mitra\, and Kathi Reister. \nThe 2023 RRR Organizing Committee members are: Chris Audain\, Adrienne Frank\, Kathryn Grabowski-Khairullah\, Jennifer Junkermeier-Khan\, Joe Levickas\, Srimoyee Mitra\, and Joe Rohrer.

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.

A light lunch will be served. \n\nAbstract:\nIn his seminal 1993 text Discrepant Engagement: Dissonance\, Cross-Culturality and Experimental Writing\, Nathaniel Mackey proposes a mode of critical reading that\, \"rather than suppressing resonance\, dissonance\, noise\, seeks to remain open to them.\" This kind of engagement\, from which the book takes its title\, proceeds by combination of materials our disciplines have not normally grouped under a common rubric. Discrepant engagement is more than mere pluralism--more\, that is\, than an openness to variety regarding objects of scholarly reflection. It is\, rather\, a rigorous method of scholarly oscillation\, mixing\, and layering\, whereby new creative possibilities are systematically opened up. In this chapter\, I have two main contentions. First\, I argue that Mackey's concept of discrepant engagement implies a certain metaphysical outlook\, derived from a wide range of sources\, including process philosophy\, deconstruction\, postcolonial thought\, quantum mechanics\, Rastafari\, Sufi\, and Dogon religious practice\, the poetics of projective verse\, and African American musical tradition\, among too many others to list. Second\, I argue that this metaphysical outlook governs the technical and conceptual innovations of Mackey's poetry. Mackey\, as poet-metaphysician\, offers a way of re-conceiving being\, figuring it as \"vibrational\, rather than corpuscular\,\" and in so doing\, provides a model of poetic understanding with implications for both scholarly and poetic practice.

They provide essential nutrients for metabolism\, eliminate waste\, enable cell-to-cell communication\, and store the potential energy that fuels life. Yet\, despite their overwhelming importance\, we still lack a physical and molecular understanding of why membrane transport proteins form stable structures that enable their specific functions within the oil-filled environment of the lipid bilayer. Our lack of understanding here is well rationalized by the inherent challenge of measuring equilibrium reactions of membrane protein assembly in membranes\, compounded by the complexity of the reaction solvent as a structured lipid bilayer. However\, through a combination of novel experimental single-molecule microscopy approaches coupled with coarse-grained and all-atom computational modeling\, we can now measure equilibrium constants of protein association in membranes and dissect out the important molecular contributions from the protein and surrounding membrane. Here\, I present our results on two systems where reversible binding within membranes can be quantitatively assessed - the homodimeric CLC-ec1 chloride/proton antiporter and the dual-topology homodimeric Fluc fluoride ion channel. By combining experimental and computational studies\, we identify a driving force for protein association that arises from state-dependent perturbation of the membrane structure\, and a mechanism for tuning dimerization stability by altering solvation energetics through preferential solvation. These results present a generalizable driving force for membrane protein assembly in membranes that is expected to apply to all ion channels and transporters.

They are leaders in the community and food service industry\, founders of a nonprofit food rescue program and food bank\, and deliver the Zingermans experience in eleven different businesses with roughly $70\,000\,000 in annual sales. All while staying true to their beliefs.\n\nAlthough most of us don’t realize it\, our beliefs have a major impact on how things go in our lives. What we believe may or may not be true\, but unknowingly most of us will behave in ways that reinforce our beliefs anyway. In this workshop\, keynote\, Ari Weinzweig\, Cofounding Partner of Zingerman’s Community of Businesses\, will take a look at how the impact of those beliefs likely plays out in our day-to-day experiences\, and how our workplaces\, social circles\, and we are impacted by those beliefs. Whether we accept it or not\, what we believe about ourselves\, our organization\, our co-workers\, our boss\, the work that we do and our ability to do it will significantly alter the outcomes we are seeking to achieve. And how\, by becoming more mindful of our beliefs\, we can effectively backtrack— by altering our beliefs\, we change the way we see our work and the world and then\, in turn\, significantly alter the outcomes we get from our efforts. \n\nAri Weinzweig\n\nAri Weinzweig is CEO and co-founding partner of Zingerman’s Community of Businesses\, which includes Zingerman's Delicatessen\, Bakehouse\, Creamery\, Catering\, Mail Order\, ZingTrain\, Coffee Company\, Roadhouse\, Candy Manufactory\, Events at Cornman Farms\, Miss Kim\, and Zingerman’s Food Tours.\n\nZingerman’s produces\, sells\, and serves all sorts of full flavored\, traditional foods in its home of Ann Arbor\, Michigan to the tune of $70\,000\,000 a year in annual sales. Ari was recognized as one of the “Who’s Who of Food & Beverage in America” by the 2006 James Beard Foundation and has awarded a Bon Appétit Lifetime Achievement Award\, among many recognitions. Ari is the author of a number of articles and books\, including Zingerman’s Guide to Good Eating\, Zingerman’s Guide to Better Bacon\, Zingerman’s Guide to Giving Great Service\, Zingerman’s Guide to Good Leading\, Part 1: A Lapsed Anarchist’s Approach to Building a Great Business\, Zingerman's Guide to Good Leading\, Part 2: A Lapsed Anarchist’s Approach to Being a Better Leader\, Zingerman's Guide to Good Leading\, Part 3: A Lapsed Anarchist's Approach to Managing Ourselves\, Zingerman's Guide to Good Leading\, and Part 4: A Lapsed Anarchist's Approach to the Power of Beliefs in Business.\n\nIn 2017\, Ari was named one of “The World's 10 Top CEOs (They Lead in a Totally Unique Way)” by Inc.

This study examines the use of two-sided labor market platforms as a private governance solution to protect vulnerable workers in contexts where the power dynamics between employers and workers are highly unequal. Specifically\, we collaborated with a Singapore-based online platform that connects foreign domestic workers with employers (families). In this setting\, it is not uncommon for workers to be mistreated by employers via various forms of exploitation and abuse. The collaborating platform was interested in exploring whether introducing a new rating system that allows workers to rate employers could improve this situation for workers. Accordingly\, we randomized communication about such a rating system and examined how each side of the platform reacted. We found that employers did not respond positively to the rating system\, though their negative reaction was offset if they were nudged to consider the instrumental benefits of the intervention for them. Surprisingly\, workers also disliked the idea of the rating system\, despite it being intended to protect and empower them. Post-hoc analysis and interviews suggest that the most vulnerable workers were particularly concerned about the employer-rating system. Our paper illustrates that\, in settings with large power differentials\, platform governance mechanisms intended to help vulnerable workers could have unintended negative consequences. It thus highlights the importance of understanding the nuanced determinants of vulnerable workers’ challenges when considering whether platform governance might improve or exacerbate them.

Frequently\, this can be formulated as computing a probability measure on physical characteristics of a system from observed data on the output of a model of system behavior. In abstract terms\, this is the empirical stochastic inverse problem for a random vector on a probability space with an unknown probability measure. Over the last fifteen years\, collaborators and I have developed a general Bayesian approach to the formulation and solution of this problem. Our approach has a solid theoretical foundation that avoids alterations of the model like regularization as well as unrealistic and limiting assumptions about prior knowledge of system characteristics\, allows for numerical solution by a novel importance sampling approach\, and provides a platform to address critical issues arising in the practical application to scientific and engineering problems. I will lay out the theoretical and computational foundation of our approach with the details motivated by practical applications including optimizing car mileage\, cooking steaks\, hurricane storm surge forecasting\, and forecasting COVID surges. Time permitting\, I will discuss the relationship with common Bayesian statistics.\n\nSpeaker Bio: Don Estep is the Director of the Canadian Statistical Sciences Institute and is Canada Research Chair in Computational Probability and Uncertainty Quantification in the Department of Statistics and Actuarial Science at Simon Fraser University.\n\nTalk will be in-person and on Zoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/98734707290\n\n[Contact: R.

It can be embedded into a multi-projective space\, where it is cut out by the incidence Plücker relations. We explore two extensions of this variety: First\, we study the nonnegative flag variety\, which corresponds to a subset of the flag variety consisting of flags that can be represented by totally positive matrices. Second\, we study the tropicalization of the flag variety and\, more specifically\, its nonnegative part. In both cases\, we provide equivalent descriptions of these spaces for flag varieties of rank r=(a\,a+1\,...\,b)\, where r consists of consecutive integers. We also explore descriptions of the nonnegative tropical flag variety in terms of polytopal subdivisions. This talk is based on joint work with Chris Eur and Lauren Williams.

Suppose that Sam is Black by US standards but White by Brazilian standards. What is Sam’s race? We need to avoid the conclusion that they are both Black (since the US view is not in error) and not Black (since the Brazilian view is not in error either)\, and in general we need a consistent way to assign social statuses when grids collide. Enter the social relationalist. Social relationalism is the view that social statuses are not simple monadic properties but rather dyadic relations to social rules. For the social relationalist\, there is no simple monadic property of being Black (/White) for Sam to have. Rather Sam is a person who is both racialized as Black relative to the US one drop rule\, and also racialized as White relative to Brazilian appearance-based rules. These are consistent relational statuses. More generally—the social relationalist concludes—we are all persons who are racialized\, gendered\, and otherwise classified in various ways only relative to various grids.

All life\, extinct and extant\, must abide by the same physical laws. Through an understanding of these physical properties\, we can place quantitative constraints on the life habits and ecological roles of extinct organisms. Open-source tools and other emerging technologies can help answer broad questions in paleobiology by enabling detailed reconstructions of fossils and the biomechanical properties of their once-living counterparts. This talk will focus on using such an approach (involving computer modeling\, robotics\, and other tools) to investigate the aquatic biomechanics of a model system spanning ~0.5 billion years – the externally shelled cephalopods (i.e.\, ammonoids and nautiloids). The evolutionary history of these animals\, and their hydromechanical properties\, illuminate unique solutions to the obstacles presented by aquatic locomotion\, involving buoyancy\, stability\, maneuverability\, control\, and locomotive efficiency. These form-function relationships add context to early benthic-nektic transitions and various marine radiations\, while highlighting fundamental constraints on aquatic locomotion more broadly.

I will talk about the generalizations of the analogous problem for graphs. In particular\, we give conditions on characterizing hyperbolicity phenomena in free-by-cyclic groups\, and more general free group extensions\, and show how the geometry of the extension is reflected in the dynamics of the monodromy.

These techniques\, however\, are not as widely used at the NRC for reactor licensing calculations. Several factors are at play that will likely result in an increase in the use of CFD techniques. Reactor vendors are using CFD in the design of new reactors\, computer capacity increases have made the analyses more practical\, and recent engineering graduates are familiar with the approach. The ability to predict complex flow behavior in almost any geometry gives CFD the potential to add insights for certain safety analyses that are not realizable with the traditional reactor system codes. Challenges\, observations\, and lessons learned from 25 years of working with CFD techniques at the NRC are discussed along with considerations for the future.  \n\nDr. Christopher Boyd is a senior level advisor for computational fluid dynamics (CFD) within the Office of Research at the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). His focus is on CFD analyses and benchmarking efforts aimed at understanding safety issues and reducing uncertainty with the overall goal of improving regulatory effectiveness at the NRC. Prior to working for the NRC\, he worked as a wind tunnel project engineer focused on measurement techniques and calibration issues in high speed wind tunnels at the Naval Surface Warfare Center in White Oak\, Maryland. Dr. Boyd received a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Maryland in 1996 with academic research interests in turbulence\, modelling\, and heat transfer.

Albeit all dads aren’t stand-up comedians and every “dad joke” may not be funny\, they can be just as influential. This Showcase will explore the intricacies of stand-up performances by Detroit comedians who are also fathers. They have successfully integrated fatherhood experiences into their comedy. Horace Sanders\, a “PaPa Was” interviewee\, well-known Detroit stand-up comedian\, and U-M Alumnus\, will be the host.

The title of the 2-day conference\, part of the Nam Center’s Perspectives on Contemporary Korea conference series\, references the visceral\, emotional experiences embedded in and conjured by Korean music performance across many eras\, genres\, and locations. In the 21st century\, Korean music defies geopolitical boundaries and the confines of genre as artists draw on their own experiences and communities to express the lived realities of the contemporary Korean experience. The music we explore in this symposium is inclusive of long-standing traditions and new creations on the Korean peninsula\, music performance in the Diaspora\, and collaborations drawing and expanding upon Korean musical aesthetics. The participants in this two-day event will explore the many notions of Korean music on and beyond the Korean peninsula\, through space and time\, and reimagined via multiple encounters and experiences.\n\nThis event will be a combination of traditional paper presentation\, roundtables\, and workshops. There will also be at least two performances during the two-day event. The event will be free & open to the public. Attendance will be available both in-person and virtual.\n\nThis event is a program feature of the U-M Fall 2023 Festival of Asian Music. https://smtd.umich.edu/asian-music-festival/ UID:113566-21831165@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/113566 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Asia,Korea,Music,Performance LOCATION:Earl V.

The space feels like a barren home\, a cathedral and a morgue all in one. There is a great distance between the bodies\, what they do\, what they say\, how they interact. We watch as the underbelly of these relationships unfold through their inevitable decay. \n\nThis event is open to the public\; free tickets are available at the door starting one hour before the performance.
