Modernist Glass from the Polish Past DESCRIPTION:The glass in this rare collection represents the work of renowned Polish glass artists and designers created between 1960 and 1980. Known as Polskie szkło artystyczne (Polish art glass)\, the works were produced in glass factories in southern Poland and are a feature of many homes throughout Central Europe. The glass masters were trained in schools of art and design and many achieved international fame during their lifetimes. \n\nThe collectors\, Endi Poskovic and his wife Julie Anne Visco\, began acquiring the glass in 2015-16 while Endi was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. Scouring flea markets\, antique shops\, and websites\, they continue to acquire pieces and build the collection to this day. We are grateful to them for making this remarkable exhibit possible at CCPS and WCEE.\n\nOrganized by the Copernicus Center for Polish Studies\, this exhibition is co-sponsored by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design and Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia.\n\nLearn more about the exhibition and the artists at https://myumi.ch/8eVrM\n\nThe exhibit opens on September 15\, 2023 in 1010 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor.

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.

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:110231-21824627@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.

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.

This can be made precise for supersymmetric (BPS) black holes in Anti de-Sitter space\, where the AdS/CFT correspondence may be used to reliably count black hole microstates. We will review this proposal for 4d superconformal field theories dual to AdS5 black holes and explain the challenges in characterizing these microstates directly in terms of gravitational variables. Surprisingly\, a gravitational path integral calculation predicts certain universal features of the spectrum\, including a large number of exactly degenerate states and a \"mass gap\" between the BPS and non-BPS states.\n\nIf BPS black holes are described by ordinary quantum systems\, we should be able to act with operators which probe the microstates. We find one such probe is a certain generalization of the supersymmetric Wilson line in 4d N=4 SYM\; holographically dual to a D-brane which wraps the horizon\, and further demonstrate a matching of these descriptions when the spacetime description is valid. In addition to detecting the familiar deconfinement transition in conformal gauge theories\, this provides an example of a system in which a black hole interacts with other degrees of freedom but has an exact microscopic description.

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.

To See and Write Vietnam: Polish Socialist Travelogues and Documentary Photography DESCRIPTION:Literature and documentary photography on decolonization and the postcolonial period played an essential role in forging global socialist connections\, a sense of connectivity\, and in shaping grassroots imaginaries of socialist anti-colonialism. These discursive moorings brought closer to the audiences in Eastern Europe the far-away conflicts and developments that came with decolonization and life amid war in Southeast Asia. As part of the then-newly established political contacts between Poland and Vietnam\, Polish professionals were delegated to Vietnam\, leading to a series of books\, memoirs\, and reportages covering the situation on the ground in Vietnam. In my talk I will analyze the largely forgotten travelogues and documentary photographs that were published in state-socialist Poland by journalists and diplomats who had spent time in Vietnam amid and\, subsequently\, after unification. This material underlines how literary works and documentary photography dealing with cultural and societal transformation have the power to reveal\, obscure\, and construct the perception of national liberation struggles. \nRather than negatively casting the work by Monika Warneńska and Jerzy Chociłowski as mere socialist propaganda or treating it as “purely” documentary\, my talk will unpack how the postcolonial period—especially after the Second Indochina War—was narrated and understood in these publications and photographs. Vacillating between different genres and political commitments\, the travelogues and documentary photography point to shifting boundaries of strongly context-dependent knowledge production. Chronicling prolonged wartime violence and hardship as well as the challenges that came with postcolonial restructuring and social upheaval\, this discursive production around the war and post-war period in Vietnam used the power of literary narrative to humanize and translate to another context the experience of a seemingly perennial war without victimizing Vietnamese society. \nThe talk will also address how literary and visual representations and misrepresentations contribute to or undermine global socialist awareness of decolonization and postcolonialism—whether in line with or against the intentions of the authors and their political sponsors. Merging empathy and political rationale\, the travelogues and documentary photographs I discuss warrant asking: Were these overtly political yet empathetic accounts immune to an Orientalizing gaze and framing? Does the empathy towards war-torn Vietnamese society\, seemingly based in an ideal of socialist brotherhood\, suffice as a tool for self-validation and motivation? How exactly did the Vietnamese version of the story come to matter in these representations?\n\nThục Linh Nguyễn Vũ is a German Kennedy Memorial Fellow at the Minda de Gunzburg Center for European Studies (CES) at Harvard University and a postdoctoral fellow at the Research Center for the History of Transformations (RECET) at the University of Vienna. Linh is a cultural historian with a strong interest in interdisciplinary approaches. She is currently working on two books manuscripts: one on the cultural history of everyday life and of political mobilization in a dissident milieu in socialist Poland\, and a second one on contacts between Poland and Vietnam after 1955. Linh has published in *Cahiers du Monde Russe\, East European Politics and Society\,* and *History Workshop Journal\,* as well as in non-scholarly outlets such as TAZ and krytykapolityczna.pl.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu.

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:114465-21832930@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:20240619T084007 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231115T121500 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231115T124500 SUMMARY:Well-being:VIRTUAL | CEW+Inspire Midweek Mindfulness Sits DESCRIPTION:RSVP here: https://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJUlcOuvpjkqHdA1Hj1C6fqBCDL4oMYBUz0A\n\nJoin us on Wednesdays from 12:15-12:45 pm. Register once to receive a Zoom link to access the sits each week or as your schedule allows.

To answer this question\, Daumler uses the Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID) to estimate the total difference in net worth between two cohorts of American adults who started accumulating wealth in the 1980s and the 2000s\, respectively. Using a decomposition approach that he developed\, Daumler estimates the role of population changes to fertility\, marriage\, and racial/ethnic inequalities. He concludes by estimating how much of these historical changes are driven by differences in the accumulation of housing wealth and other components of family wealth.

The Lopez-Escobar theorem says that a class of countable structures is isomorphism-invariant & Borel iff it's axiomatizable by an Lω1ω-sentence. What about ≅-equivariant Borel maps? These correspond to \"Lω1ω-interpretations\"\, which can be thought of as recipes for constructing different types of structures from each other. We'll discuss the space of infinitary theories ordered by interpretability. Then we'll describe the notion of 'structurability'\, through which we can see that many constructions in the theory of countable Borel equivalence relations (CBERs) are naturally phrased in terms of interpretations. Time permitting\, we'll describe a close correspondence between the set of theories (ordered by interpretability) and the set of CBERs (ordered by class-bijective Borel homomorphisms).

However\, significant technical challenges must be overcome to reach the year-long operation timescales required for a power plant. This talk will focus on the leading concept\, the tokamak\, and look at next steps needed for 1) production and control of a sustained fusion plasma\, 2) development of materials that can withstand the extreme fusion environment\, and 3) harnessing fusion power. Sophisticated integrated modeling tools are enabling tightly coupled plasma\, nuclear\, and engineering predictive modeling of the fusion core\, first wall\, blanket\, magnets\, etc. Such ‘virtual test beds’ aim to shorten development time and guide design decisions to quickly arrive at innovative solutions that maximize the probability of meeting Fusion Pilot Plant (FPP) goals and enable optimization to impact commercial viability and timely delivery of fusion power.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nCami Collins is a plasma physicist and section head in the Fusion Energy Division at Oak Ridge National Laboratory\, where she is working to find a solution to create and sustain a burning plasma needed for an economical fusion energy pilot plant. Her specific research is in the experimental development of steady-state tokamak scenarios\, and in applying integrated physics and engineering computational tools for design and assessment of fusion reactors. Cami received her Ph.D. in 2013 from the U. of Wisconsin Madison\, where she received an American Physical Society Outstanding Doctoral Thesis Award for her work in laboratory plasma astrophysics. She completed a postdoc through the University of California Irvine at the DIII-D National Fusion Facility\, became a staff scientist at General Atomics in 2016 specializing in spectroscopy diagnostics and energetic particle physics\, and joined ORNL in 2020. Driven by a long-time passion for the success of fusion energy\, she has served in multiple fusion outreach and strategic planning activities\, including the APS-DPP Community Planning Process and the U.S. ITER Research Program.\n\nDr. Collins won the MIPSE Early Career Award 2023.

With the DEHVILS sample\, one of the largest uniform NIR samples\, we check three key systematics: the reduction in Hubble residual scatter as compared to the optical\; the measurement of a ‘mass step’ or lack thereof and its implications\; and the ability to distinguish between various dust models by analyzing correlations between Hubble residuals in the NIR and optical. We produce accurate simulations of the DEHVILS sample and find that\, contrary to assumptions in the literature\, it is harder to differentiate between various dust models than previously understood\, and it is unclear how standard SNe Ia truly are in the NIR.

We then construct a compactification for M_{0\,n}^{+} motivated by string theory and realize it as a curvy associahedron (worldsheet associahedron) and a positive geometry. Finally\, we introduce stringy integrals\, which on some limit determines the kinematic associahedron and its canonical function\, and on another limit gives a diffeomorphism between the interior of the kinematic associahedron and the worldsheet associahedron\, thus relating their canonical functions and canonical forms.

On the other hand\, we are usually not interested in all the microscopic details of the entanglement pattern but only some of its global features. It turns out\, quantum circuits of different levels of complexity provide a useful way to establish a hierarchy among many-body entanglement structures. A circuit of a finite depth generates only short range entanglement which is in the same gapped phase as an unentangled product state. A linear depth circuit on the other hand can lead to chaos beyond thermal equilibrium. In this talk\, we discuss how to reach the interesting regime in between that contains nontrivial gapped orders. This is achieved using the Sequential Quantum Circuit — a circuit of linear depth but with each layer acting only on one subregion in the system. We discuss how the Sequential Quantum Circuit can be used to generate nontrivial gapped states with long range correlation or long range entanglement\, perform renormalization group transformation in foliated fracton order\, and create defect excitations inside the bulk of a higher dimensional topological state.

What about what we do want? Drawing on Robin D.G. Kelley’s Freedom Dreams\, and the exploration of “Latinx Freedom Dreams” in Dr. Sara Awartani’s Arts&Resistance theme course by the same name\, this workshop will invite participants to envision what those dreams actually feel like -- and what we can practice\, together and today -- to bring those dreams closer to our lived reality. We'll play with Theatre of the Oppressed and Creative Drama techniques and explore a host of strategies for participatory invitations that might move an audience. Then\, the group will devise (ie.\, collaboratively create) short participatory performance pieces about social issues or social movements that have material impact on them. At the end of the workshop\, we'll have all come a little bit closer to freedom.\n\nRSVP: https://forms.gle/PDHT4CPkqCnPicNe6\n\nKeene Theater UID:115088-21834036@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/115088 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:american culture,Art,artists,arts,arts at michigan,Arts Initiative,center for world performance studies,Culture,Dance,Department Of American Culture,Free,In Person,Latina/o Studies,latino/a studies,Music,performance,Theater,Theme Semester,Visual Arts,Workshop LOCATION: CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231130T123130 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231115T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231115T160000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Inclusion\, Diversity\, and Career Growth at Convergint DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to invite you to learn more about how Convergint’s diversity\, growth\, and culture impacts colleague advancement.\n\nConvergint is in one of the fastest-growing global technology industries today and is the world's largest privately-held systems integrator\, having just ranked #1 for the 6th consecutive year by SDM Magazine.\n\nConvergintworks alongside a global network of product partners and manufacturers todesign\, install\, and service security\, fire & life safety\, digital transformation\, cybersecurity and building technology solutions for enterprise customers.\n\nPlease join us and learn how our culture centered aroundValues & Beliefs allows all colleagues to realize their true career potential by being themselves in an inclusive learning environment supported byformal training programs\, mentorships\, and colleague affinity groups.

The striking similarity between sequences of the high-altitude adaptation gene EPAS1 in Denisovans and modern Tibetans suggested adaptive introgression. However\, the time and geographic ranges where the adaptive introgression happened remain unknown. This talk consists of three studies that are related to archaic adaptive introgression. First\, I show that the ancestors of Tibetans experienced two pulses of Denisovan introgression\, and the positive selection on EPAS1 did not start until after the Last Glacial Maximum. Second\, I show that most commonly-used statistical methods for detecting adaptive introgression fail to consider a confounder from recessive deleterious mutations on the genome\, which can inflate their false positive rates especially in conserved genomic regions with low recombination rates. Lastly\, I introduce MaLAdapt – a machine learning method for detecting genome-wide adaptive introgression\, which reveals novel knowledge of how genomic variants from archaic humans facilitated modern human adaptations in worldwide populations.\n\nShort Bio:\n\nDr. Xinjun Zhang is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Human Genetics at the University of Michigan\, and an affiliated faculty member at CCMB and the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology.

Once you’ve registered\, the joining information will be sent to your email.\n \n Register at: https://myumi.ch/zwA6Z\n \n Historically\, disability studies is anchored to the humanities\, which generates a tremendous volume of discourse on disability through activism and advocacy\, creative practice\, and justice-informed frameworks. However\, within the academy and society at large\, perceptions\, perspectives\, and approaches to disability are more volatile. Physicians tend to understand disability as a therapeutic object to be diagnosed\, ameliorated\, and cured. Engineers engage disability as a problem to be solved through technical means. Artists and designers work through disability to motivate a range of creative practices. Architects and urbanists leverage disability narratives around mobility and accessibility but often fail to accede to the demands of disabled people in terms of equity and inclusion in public life. Everyone appears well-intentioned but often intention becomes oppressive\, pathologizing\, and isolating. A civil understanding of human rights remains contested.This panel is convening as a form of repair across disciplinary divides\; in order\, hopefully\, to foster greater connection and\, perhaps empathy in the process of our collective work.\n \n Crystal Lee is an assistant professor in computational media and design at MIT with a joint appointment in the Schwarzman College of Computing and Comparative Media Studies / Writing.

This paper presents empirical and theoretical evidence linking this decline to the spread of electricity. Using data on early electrification efforts\, I empirically disentangle the two channels linking electrification and fertility: the introduction of time-saving appliances that reduce the time needed for child-rearing\; and the rise in female wages which raises the opportunity cost of childcare. I then use these empirical estimates to calibrate a model that features both channels and quantifies the aggregate impact of electrification on fertility. I find that electrification explains 4.6% of the overall fertility decline in 1900-1940 in the US\, and that the opportunity cost channel is preponderant in explaining this response by allowing young childless women to benefit from the labor market gains of electricity.

It is based on an algorithm which we call deep empirical risk minimization developed by E\, Han & Jentzen. Their approach applies generally to many stochastic optimal control problems. In the presence of free boundaries\, it has to be modified to account for training based on hitting times. In this talk\, I outline how this is achieved for the classical problems of optimal stopping or the obstacle problem\, and for the Stefan problem for the water-ice interfaces. For the Stefan problem\, we use the recent stochastic representations\, the notion of physical probabilistic solutions\, and level-sets parameterized by deep neural networks on the numerical side.

State Street\, Ann Arbor 48109\n\n \nThe rich\, complex\, hopeful story of today’s rural America too often goes untold or misrepresented\, but a cadre of vocal rural champions are working to change that. Join us for an intimate conversation between two leading voices for rural prosperity: Tony Pipa (Scholar\, Center for Sustainable Development\, Brookings Institution\, and Host\, Reimagine Rural Podcast)\, who will share his experiences visiting rural communities across the country\, and Sarah Lucas (Director\, Office of Rural Development\, Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development)\, who will highlight inspiring stories from within the state of Michigan.\n\nPipa founded the Reimagining Rural Policy initiative to modernize U.S. policy for equitable rural development and also leads a global initiative to advance sustainable development at the local level. With three decades of executive leadership experience\, his background includes key roles at the U.S. Agency for International Development\, leading the U.S. delegation at the UN for the adoption of the SDGs\, and fostering philanthropic ventures for community and economic development in US communities. He currently serves as vice-chair of StriveTogether\, as a steering committee member of the Mobility Alliance\, and contributes to various other advisory committees.\n\nLucas’s career achievements in community and economic development have led to enduring coalitions\, policy changes\, and heightened regional growth. Her past roles include CEO of the Lake Superior Community Partnership\, founding Executive Director of Housing North\, and pivotal positions with Networks Northwest and the Western Upper Peninsula Planning and Development Region. Her leadership extends to regional and statewide boards\, including the Community and Economic Development Association of Michigan\, Economic Development Leaders of Michigan\, and the Michigan Association of Planning.\n\nThe conversation\, hosted at the Ford School by the Center for Local\, State\, and Urban Policy (CLOSUP) and the Graham Sustainability Institute\, will be followed by a public Q&A.

A decade later\, living in political exile in Germany\, he still performed to sold-out audiences in Europe. That changed on August 7\, 1992\, when he was found brutally murdered in his apartment in Bonn. Neighbors said his dogs had been barking for two nights.\n\nThe murder\, still unsolved\, serves as the starting point for this new work by British-Iranian theater maker Javaad Alipoor\, whose The Believers Are But Brothers was featured in the 2020 No Safety Net theater festival. Selected as one of The Guardian’s Top Theatre Shows of 2022\, Things Hidden “gleefully mashes up genres\, smashing together the quiet authority of the murder mystery podcast\, the intimacy of autobiographical storytelling\, and the visual spectacle of multimedia performance — while simultaneously deconstructing each of these forms.” (The Guardian) UID:109627-21822422@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/109627 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Activism,Ann Arbor,Art,artists,artists and curators,arts,Culture,Digital Culture,History,Human Rights,Humanities,In Person,Interdisciplinary,International,Mindfulness,multicultural,performance,social justice,Storytelling,theater,UMS,university musical society LOCATION:Pierpont Commons - Arthur Miller Theatre CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231115T180004 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231115T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231115T213000 SUMMARY:Exercise / Fitness:Bujinkan Budo Training Session DESCRIPTION:During the Fall 2023 semester\, Bujinkan Budo Club training will be held on Wednesdays from 20:00 - 21:30 (8-9:30pm) at the Intramural Sports Building (IMSB) in Room MPR B.

From wide channels of dynamic\, emotional arrangements to somber barroom ballads and anthemic battle cries\, Delta 88’s music blazes a trail through the Americana wilderness. The band has four studio albums under their belt\, with the most recent featuring production by Grammy Award-winning musician and producer Joe Henry.
