SUMMARY:Exhibition:CCPS Exhibition. 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. Contact copernicus@umich.edu to schedule a viewing.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CES Exhibition. Camera as Passport: The Ship of Photographers
DESCRIPTION:Starting in 1933 when Hitler and the Nazis came to power\, a cadre of European Jews—German\, Polish\, Hungarian\, Austrian\, French—discovered that a camera could be their passport\, first out of Germany and then out of Europe. Some of these women and men had been planning one type of career—lawyer\, journalist\, painter\, musician—but then realized that they needed to find another way to earn a living. Taking photographs presented a sufficiently malleable opportunity that not only allowed them to leave Germany and then Europe but also to have a means to sustain themselves in foreign countries where they did not necessarily speak the language.\n   \n   They did\, however\, mobilize the visual language of photography. For a number of these figures\, forced migration became an asset during the golden age of photojournalism wherein their portable services were employed to supply picture stories on the move and around the world. Many of these Jews became influential photographers\, shaping how their contemporaries saw the world. Looking back on their work\, we can see how they have influenced our understanding of the modern world even as we can recognize their photographs as a significant component of modern Jewish visual culture.\n   \n   Of the dozens of photographers who fled Europe\, eight escaped on a single ship. The S. S. Winnipeg sailed from Marseille\, France on May 7\, 1941. Germany had already conquered both eastern and western Europe and was poised to invade the Soviet Union. The United States was not yet in the war. Among the 750 refugees aboard were photographers from Hungary\, Belgium\, France\, and Germany: Ilse Bing\, Josef Breitenbach\, Boris Lipnitsky\, Charles Leirens\, Yolla Niclas\, Fred Stein\, Monie Tannen\, and Ylla (Camilla Henriette Koffler). During lifeboat drills\, they discovered each other. Some of them narrowly escaped Vichy France under the auspices of the American journalist Varian Fry and the New York-based Emergency Rescue Committee that helped so many Jewish and anti-Fascist artists get out of Europe in the nick of time.\n   \n   This exhibit introduces the University of Michigan to this intrepid group as exemplary case studies of the wide range of European photographers who used their cameras as passports to other worlds. It focuses first on their European experiences pre-emigration before turning to their escape from Europe on the S. S. Winnipeg (with three of them taking photos on board the ship). The exhibit concludes with examples of some of their initial photographic reactions to the new world\, seeing it through European eyes.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Propositions to Progress: A Working Atlas of the Global South
DESCRIPTION:Historically\, maps have served as a panoptic technology\, assisting imperial powers in governance\, discipline\, and control. In this exhibit\, internationally renowned Filipino artist Cian Dayrit acts as a counter-cartographer\, reclaiming mapmaking as an emancipatory activity.\n\nDayrit’s artworks\, embroidered on textiles or painted over collages of colonial-era maps\, plot the extraction of natural resources\, land grabbing\, and dispossession and displacement in his native Philippines. At the same time\, their resistant lines summon new imaginaries out of the overlaps between places and memories.\n\nDayrit’s practice is critically and practically informed by the narratives of Filipino communities. Items exhibited alongside his artwork are the result of map-drawing workshops the artist has convened with rural\, urban\, and indigenous communities across the Philippines. Propositions to Progress invites you to engage in the collaborative endeavor to activate alternative territories from the ground up.\n\nCian Dayrit is an interdisciplinary artist exploring colonialism and ethnography\, archaeology\, history\, and mythology. Dayrit subverts the language of the state\, museum\, and military to visualize the contradictions on which these institutions are built. He studied at the University of the Philippines.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Souq Stories: Gaza Lives
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit is an extension of Souq Stories (https://souqstories.insaniyyat.org/)\, which was displayed in 2021 in all seven of the historic markets it depicts in Gaza\, Nazareth\, Acre\, Nablus\, Jerusalem\, Khalil\, and Jaffa. Its youth group organizers aimed to bolster Palestinian unity across the systemic barriers — colonial divides\, military checkpoints\, walls\, etc. — that fragment the lives of people living in Palestine. \n\nSouq Stories: Gaza Lives brings us to present-day Gaza\, sharing the stories of\, and images captured by\, young journalists and photographers who have continued to document the realities of life in Palestine. It also honors one among them\, Fouad Abu Khammash\, who was killed in January 2024 in an Israeli bomb attack on Gaza.\n\n< The exhibit includes images of people suffering the aftermath of the ongoing violence. >\n\nThis exhibit was curated by Souq Stories team members Shareef Sarhan and Waed Abbas in partnership with U-M students Amir Marshi\, Zainab Hakim\, Mariam Odeh\, and Vivian M. Nguyen. It’s offered in conjunction with this year’s Palestine Awareness Week\, an annual series of educational events related to Palestinian history\, culture\, and politics. Presented in association with Insaniyyat: Society of Palestinian Anthropologists.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exile and the Mentor-student Relationship: A Force for Resistance and Decolonization
DESCRIPTION:This small exhibit features work in reproduction by Iraqi artists Hanaa Malallah and Mohammed Karim\, as well as an original painting by Karim. Both Malallah and Karim were significantly influenced by their mentors during and after their training in Iraq\, and continue to share their work and ideas with a new generation today.\n\nIn the United States\, Iraq is typically spoken about in a passive position: colonized\, under despotic rule\, occupied. Post-occupied. Through connections between mentors and students\, and students who became mentors to new students\, Iraqi artists have been a force for anti-colonialism\, claiming their heritage and its future for themselves.\n\nView the exhibit Monday-Friday in the Fine Arts Library\, Tappan Hall\, 855 S.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Garden Repairs
DESCRIPTION:About the installation:\nGarden Repairs is an installation of paper textiles that loosely narrate the life cycle of plants. It considers the process of germination as a site for the cross-pollination of ideas from diverse disciplines around the future of the built environment. \n\nAbout the artist:\nSusan Goethel Campbell creates multi-disciplinary work that considers the contemporary landscape to be an emergent system where nature\, culture\, and the engineered environment are indistinguishable from one another. Central to her practice is the collection\, documentation\, and observation of seasonal change and ephemera in both natural and artificial environments. Her work is realized in several formats\, including installation\, video\, prints\, and drawings\, as well as projects that engage communities to look at local and global environments.\n\nCampbell earned an MFA in printmaking from Cranbrook Academy of Art. Her work has been exhibited internationally in Belgium\, Germany\, Switzerland\, and Slovenia and nationally throughout the US\, including the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, Queens Art Museum\, Crystal Bridges Museum\, Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit\, Grand Rapids Art Museum\, the Detroit Institute of Arts\, The Drawing Center\, and The International Print Center New York. In 2009 she was one of 18 artists selected for the inaugural Kresge Artist Fellowship.\n\nCampbell has been awarded residencies at the Banff Centre for the Arts\, the Flemish Center for Graphic Arts\, the Jentel Foundation\, Beisinghoff Print Residency\, and the Print Research Institute of North Texas. She taught studio art for 15 years at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit and has been a visiting artist in numerous institutions in the United States and abroad. Her work is in the collection of the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, New York Public Library\, Detroit Institute of Arts\, Toledo Museum of Art\, and the University of Michigan Special Collections Library.\n\nThis project is made possible by a grant from the Mellon Foundation as part of the Institute for the Humanities' multi-year High Stakes Art initiative.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:My Gender States
DESCRIPTION:On display at Lane Hall\, Rogério M. Pinto (School of Social Work) invites audiences to take part in an exhibition that examines his embodied gender states based on his intersecting childhood traumas and life experiences. In \"My Gender States\,\" Pinto shares his deep and abiding grief related to the childhood death of his sister and the subsequent gender embodiments that ensued stemming from the belief that he was his deceased sister. \n\nUsing autoethnography\, Pinto created a one-person play (\"Marília\,\" 2015) and site-specific installation performance (\"The Realm of the Dead\,\" 2022). These works explore the intersecting and shaping layers of childhood traumas\, gender states\, and his life experience—a story of the struggles\, fears\, and accomplishments he experienced as an immigrant to the United States. In \"Realm\,\" audiences circulated around 25 assemblage sculptures created from vintage suitcases and trunks that evoked the cemetery where Pinto’s sister was buried and the literal and figurative baggage that he\, a queer immigrant\, carried with him. \"My Gender States\" is a selection of materials\, images\, and texts from \"Marília\" and \"Realm\" curated to more closely examine the themes of gender and sexuality in these works. Collected are portrayals of Pinto’s gender states\, gender confusion\, gender embodiments\, gender doubt\, and reactions to gender stigma. \n\nRogério M. Pinto (Brazilian\, American\, b. 1965\, Belo Horizonte\, Brazil) is a University Diversity Social Transformation Professor\; Berit Ingersoll-Dayton Collegiate Professor of Social Work\; and Professor of Theatre and Drama\, School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, at the University of Michigan. Pinto uses art-based methods to conduct community-engaged research in the United States and Brazil.\n\nThe photographs used in \"My Gender States\" are by Emerson Granillo (American\, b. 1987)\; David Newton (American\, b. 1993)\; and Nicholas Williams (American\, b. 1994). The \"Realm\" assemblages featured in \"My Gender States\" were conceived by Pinto and designed by him\, in collaboration with Sarah Tanner. \n\n\"My Gender States\" is on display in the Lane Hall Exhibit Space (first floor\, 204 S State St) from January 23\, to August 13\, 2024. The exhibit is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.\n\nHosted by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women’s and Gender Studies Department.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Orson Welles as Family Man: Son\, Husband\, Father
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit provides a unique glimpse into the actor/director Orson Welles’ private life. Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Peter Dunn Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Peter Dunn has historically been an object maker as a designer and sculptor. Whether designing furniture or developing the ideas for sculpture\, the process has always been the same. Ideas begin as\nscribbled images that are then stretched and refined with CAD software.  At its core\, much of the work studies the manipulation of simple geometry.  Dunn looks at the form from different forced perspectives – exploding\, augmenting\, slicing\, repeating\, and lighting.  This body of work is a study of perception\, sympathy\, hierarchy\, and reality. The “We Are Virus” series is an adaptation from an initial design where it continued to evolve and adapt through manipulation of parts and scale.\n\nPeter Dunn received his BFA from Wayne State University and MFA from University of Michigan.  He currently serves on faculty at College for Creative Studies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Products from Pollution: Carbon Capture and Conversion
DESCRIPTION:Phasing out fossil fuels is a primary means to fight climate change\, but it alone is not enough. Even if all emissions ceased tomorrow\, atmospheric CO2 levels are already dangerously high and the climate would keep warming before it eventually stabilizes. We have to reduce or “capture” legacy CO2 to avert disaster. As the International Panel on Climate Change stated\, the *only* way we can meet our climate goal is to use carbon capture in our climate change fighting tool kit. \n\nMany of the products that we use every day are made with carbon. Treating legacy CO2 as a resource with economic value rather than a pollutant allows us to generate revenue while also fighting climate change. \n\nHowever\, not all uses or types of captured CO2 are equal in terms of environmental or economic benefits. This exhibit includes a video game that helps explain the pros and cons associated with different methods and applications of carbon capture. \n\nAdditionally\, it also provides examples of two types of carbon removal\, an interactive block activity\, and sample products made from captured CO2.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Welcome. Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle. Gather to feel full\, to be moved and inspired by all the possible imaginations of what is yet to come.\n \nCurated by Félix Zamora Gómez Irving Stenn\, Jr. Fellow in Public Humanities & Museum Pedagogy\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Andrea Carlson Future Cache
DESCRIPTION:In Andrea Carlson Future Cache\, a 40-foot-tall memorial wall towers over visitors\, commemorating the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians who were violently burned from their land in Northern Michigan on October 15\, 1900. Written across the walls above and around the memorial\, a statement proclaims Anishinaabe rights to the land we stand on: “You are on Anishinaabe Land.”  \n \nPresented alongside are paintings of imagined decolonized landscapes and a symbolic cache of provisions. Future Cache implicitly asks those who have benefited from the legacies of colonization to consider where they stand and where to go from here and seeks to foster a sense of belonging for displaced Indigenous peoples fighting for restitution.\n\nSpecial thanks to the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians\, Margaret Noodin\, and Richard A. Wiles\, for their consultation on the State Historical Marker text\; to Margaret Noodin and Michael Zimmerman\, Jr. for translating the gallery texts into Anishinaabemowin\; to James Horton and Fritz Swanson for generously producing the letterpress broadsides\; to colleagues at the U-M Biological Station\, U-M Museum of Anthropological Archaeology\, U-M Clements Library\, and U-M Clark Map Library. For more information on the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians visit BurtLakeBand.org. \n\nLead support for Future Cache is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, and the U-M Office of the Provost.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Angkor Complex: ​Cultural Heritage and Post-Genocide Memory in Cambodia.
DESCRIPTION:Care in Uncertain Times\n \nAs crises of public health\, economic instability\, authoritarian regimes\, racial injustice\, and climate change spread around the globe\, millions are experiencing distress\, conflict\, uncertainty\, and vulnerability. This troubling combination of experiences is nothing new for Cambodians. Between 1975-1979\, when the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia\, about a quarter of the country’s populations died of infectious diseases\, weapon wounds\, and malnutrition.\n \nThis exhibition brings together more than 80 works of art spanning a millennium to present how the visual culture of Cambodia and its diaspora has evolved in the face of cultural upheaval. Showcasing works from worldwide collections\, including those from some of the foremost members of the Cambodian contemporary art scene\, Angkor Complex allows viewers to encounter the still-fresh scars of a genocide and critically appreciate the strategies evolved to nurture resilience in trying times.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the U-M Office of the Provost\, U-M Office of the President\, National Endowment for the Arts\, Michigan Arts and Culture Council\, Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and U-M Ross School of Business.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Curriculum / Collection
DESCRIPTION:In Curriculum / Collection\, an incredible variety of University of Michigan courses take material form. Collected for each course are objects that address the nature of materiality\, time\, and human interaction in relation to our environments\, our wars\, our relationships\, and our eccentricities. \n \nWorking in collaboration with University faculty\, the works in this exhibition were selected for their capacity to provoke engagement with the guiding questions and themes of their specific courses\, while also offering students inspiration for research and art projects in their areas of study. The exhibition demonstrates some of the diverse and creative ways art plays a central role in learning across the disciplines. It also asks us to consider what we can learn from art objects across an infinite variety of specialties and subject matter.\n \nAs classes begin in Fall of 2021\, you’ll be able to use these pages to explore the collections designed for each course\, dive into the works themselves\, and hear from the professors and students about how they are engaging with art and objects in new ways. Who knows\, maybe you’ll learn something surprising along the way\, too.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, and the Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and the Oakriver Foundation.\n

SUMMARY:Presentation:Homology of Hurwitz spaces via Fox-Neuwirth cells
DESCRIPTION:Hurwitz spaces\, certain finite covers of unordered configuration spaces of the plane\, and their generalizations play a fundamental role in the recent flurry of remarkable work connecting topology and number theory\, such as Ellenberg-Venkatesh-Westerland\, Ellenberg-Tran-Westerland\, Liu-Wood-Zureick-Brown\, and Ellenberg-Landesman. In this talk\, we will explain the approach of Ellenberg-Tran-Westerland to produce an asymptotic bound on the homology of Hurwitz spaces\, starting with integrating the classical Fox-Neuwirth stratification of configuration spaces into the twisted setting. Time permitting\, we will explore ways to expand this framework to study the homology of generalized Hurwitz spaces over an arbitrary curve\, which has potential applications in number theory.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LSI SciComm Speaker Series: Sophie Bushwick
DESCRIPTION:When the AI chatbot ChatGPT went public just over a year ago\, interest in generative artificial intelligence exploded. Enthusiasts touted AI's ability to turn anyone into a writer or an artist\, to make workers more efficient and companies richer—that is\, if it didn't become powerful enough to destroy humanity altogether. Skeptics pointed out that AI language models spout falsehoods and facts with equal confidence\, can churn out disinformation too quickly for fact-checkers to keep up\, and threaten writers' jobs and livelihoods.\n \nIn science communication\, where accuracy and understanding are priorities\, is there any place for AI tools? Sophie Bushwick has been covering this technology through the generative AI boom\, exploring how artificial intelligence models work and how they're impacting a variety of fields\, including medicine and education. She will draw on that experience to discuss AI's strengths and flaws\, and what scientists and science communicators should consider when deciding how best to use it. \n\n*The LSI's SciComm Speaker Series highlights the importance of disseminating scientific findings beyond the walls of the academy and effectively communicating the impact of publicly-funded research. This annual event provides world-leading science writers and communicators with an opportunity to share their experiences with faculty\, staff and students\, while also tapping into U-M's vast scientific research community.*\n\n\nAbout the speaker:\nSophie Bushwick is a science and technology journalist based in New York City and is currently working as senior news editor at New Scientist. She has more than a decade of experience as a freelance writer and staff editor at outlets including Scientific American\, where she covered the recent generative AI boom\, Popular Science\, Discover Magazine and Gizmodo\; and she continues to make regular appearances on Science Friday. Her work spans digital and print\, podcasts and radio\, TV news and TikTok. In her spare time\, she likes to read\, run\, learn about the evolution of fairy tales and take in as much theater as possible.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism
DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Liquidity and Investment in General Equilibrium
DESCRIPTION:This paper studies the implications of trading frictions in financial markets for firms’ investment and dividend choices\, and their aggregate consequences. When equity shares trade in frictional asset markets\, the firm’s problem is time-inconsistent\, and it is as if it faces quasi-hyperbolic discounting. The transmission of trading frictions to the real economy crucially depends on the firms’ ability to commit. In a calibrated economy without commitment\, larger trading frictions imply lower capital and production. In contrast\, if firms can commit\, trading frictions affect asset prices but have no aggregate effect on capital and production. Our findings rationalize several empirical regularities on liquidity and investment.\n\nThis talk is presented by the Macroeconomics Seminar\, sponsored by the Department of Economics with generous gifts given through the Michael Beauregard Fund for Macroeconomics and the Economics Strategic Fund.

SUMMARY:Performance:\"bellvoix\" World Premiere by Julie Zhu\, carillon
DESCRIPTION:*bellvoix* is a site-specific performance at U-M's Burton Memorial Tower. Instead of broadcasting songs\, the carillon has a speaking voice. Artist and performer Julie Zhu talks through a convolution of her voice and bell sounds to passersby\, surprising them with specific details surveilled from the tower\, goading them into conversation. \n\nWhen a carillon cyborg finally acquires language\, what will she say? How might listeners – who don’t have a choice whether to listen – react to the authority of a public musical instrument who necessarily has opinions? *bellvoix* makes obvious the specific social contract between the carillon and the community it serves\, woos\, or antagonizes. Who is the carillon? And why do we bell?\n\nThis world premiere of \"bellvoix\" (2023) by Julie Zhu\, President's Postdoctoral Fellow and Assistant Professor (performing arts technology)\, is a 30 minute performance. It is co-sponsored by the U-M Arts Initiative and part of the series \"XR/XF: Extended Realities/Extended Feminisms\" with the Digital Studies Institute. \n\n***\nThe Charles Baird Carillon\, an instrument of 53 bronze bells\, is located inside the Burton Memorial Tower. The largest bell\, which strikes the hour\, weighs 12 tons\, while the smallest bell\, 4½ octaves above\, weighs just 15 pounds.\n\nThirty-minute recitals are performed on the Charles Baird Carillon at noon every weekday that classes are in session\, followed by visitor Q&A with the carillonist. The bell chamber may be accessed via a combination of elevator and stairs. Take the elevator to the highest floor possible (floor 8)\, and then climb two flights of stairs (39 steps) to the bell chamber (floor 10). Earplugs are available from the carillonist upon request. Be prepared to walk on ice and snow in the bell chamber during winter. Built in 1936\, the Charles Baird Carillon is not ADA accessible. Visitors with mobility concerns are invited to visit the Lurie Carillon: https://smtd.umich.edu/facilities/ann-and-robert-h-lurie-carillon/

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MPSDS JPSM Seminar Series - Texting in Mixed-Mode Studies: Results from Recent Research Experimentation
DESCRIPTION:MPSDS JPSM Seminar Series\nApril 3\, 2024\n12:00-1:00 pm\n\nIn person\, Room 1070 Institute for Social Research\, and via Zoom. The Zoom call will be locked 10 minutes after the start of the presentation. \n\nTexting in Mixed-Mode Studies: Results from Recent Research Experimentation \n\nUsing multiple modes of contact has been found to increase participation in surveys over a single contact mode. Text messaging has emerged as a new mode to contact survey participants in mixed-mode survey designs\, especially for surveys that include web and/or phone data collection. However\, it has been unclear how to best combine text messages with mailings and other outreach contacts to improve response rates and data quality. At NORC\, we launched a program to explore the effectiveness of using text messaging as a contact mode and embedded experiments in multiple NORC studies to better understand the impact and benefits of texting. In this seminar\, we highlight results from our recent experimental research\, including the effectiveness of text invitations and text reminders at different points in the contact sequence\, the time-of-day text messages are sent\, and whether text reminders are more effective than postcard reminders. Objectives for this seminar include: to understand how texting is used for contacting potential survey respondents at NORC\, share examples from texting on specific NORC projects\, and discuss results from recent studies on how best to use texting.\n\nLeah Christian is Senior Vice President directing the Methodological and Quantitative Social Sciences department. Prior to joining NORC\, Christian worked at Nielsen and the Pew Research Center. Christian brings over 20 years of experience in survey methodology and panel research\, including work with federal\, academic\, commercial\, and nonprofit organizations. She is an expert in data collection modes\, mixed-mode survey and panel designs\, and questionnaire design and measurement error. Her research also focuses on evaluating big data for use in social science research\, integrating survey and big data\, and using survey data to correct for errors in big data. Christian is co-author of Internet\, Phone\, Mail\, and Mixed-Mode Surveys: The Tailored Design Method and has published 15 articles on research methodology in a variety of journals and presented more than 50 conference\, webinar and short courses on research methodology and data science. Christian was a recipient of AAPOR’s Warren J. Mitofsky’s Innovators Award in 2017 for her work with a research team developing web-push data collection methodologies. Christian holds a PhD in sociology from Washington State University. \n\nChristopher Hansen is a Research Methodologist with over 10 years of experience in applied research. During his time at NORC\, he has worked in the capacity of methodologist on numerous projects in the areas of survey and questionnaire design and cognitive and usability testing. These projects include the National Domestic Workers Alliance (NDWA) Labs Methodology Review\, the Project on Human Development in Chicago Neighborhoods with Harvard University\, the CDC’s Survey of Today’s Adolescent Relationships and Transitions\, and the CDC’s COVID Experiences Longitudinal Surveys. Hansen teaches courses in research methodology at Loyola University Chicago and DePaul University and has presented on topics related to survey design and measurement at national conferences\, including the American Association for Public Opinion Research and the American Association for Public Policy Analysis and Management. Hansen holds a master’s degree in sociology from the University of Chicago.  \n\nMartha McRoy is a Senior Research Methodologist who specializes in survey sample design\, questionnaire development\, fieldwork monitoring and implementation\, quality control\, and data weighting for web\, mail\, telephone\, face-to-face\, and mixed-mode surveys. McRoy provides rigor in all stages of survey research with project work covering a breadth of topics including public opinion\, religion\, health\, justice\, and transportation. Her experimental work focuses on mode shifts and bridge studies\, predicting response propensities and survey outcome dispositions of sampled respondents\, increasing response rates for hard-to-reach populations\, and developing tools to monitor data collection activity. McRoy brings over ten years of experience in survey statistics and methodology\, including working at Abt Associates\, Westat\, the Pew Research Center\, and the Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development. She holds a master’s degree in survey methodology from the University of Michigan.\n\nZoe Slowinski is a Research Methodologist with over 12 years of applied research experience in the U.S. and internationally\, including work with federal\, academic\, and nonprofit organizations. Her work focuses on survey design\, measurement error\, and qualitative data collection. At NORC\, she develops questionnaires\, conducts cognitive and usability interviews\, plans and moderates focus groups\, and analyzes data for clients such as the Bureau of Labor Statistics\, National Science Foundation\, and Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Slowinski's experimental work focuses on the use of texting and email as survey contact modes. She holds a master’s degree in public policy from George Mason University.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:XR/XF: Extended Realities\, Extended Feminisms Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:XR/XF: Extended Realities\, Extended Feminisms brings together local\, national\, and international artists to create a site-specific multimedia exhibition and series of events on the University of Michigan campus and across the city of Ann Arbor. The exhibition will take place in various locations\, including a shipping container - the XR/XF pod - that will travel between 2 locations in Ann Arbor during the first two weeks of April.\n\nThe city of Ann Arbor has always been feminized. The story goes that in 1824\, John Allen and Elisha W. Rumsey founded the town and named it after their wives\, who were both named Ann. Since then\, the city has been anthropomorphized as a feminine body throughout the years. In the 1980s\, the University of Michigan’s football rivals in Ohio invented the infamous slogan\, “Ann Arbor is a Whore!” as a method to jeer at the opposition. Since then\, this offensive slogan has spread across the US and reappears every Fall during football season in Ann Arbor\, proliferating through both physical and digital objects. As one recent social media commenter notes: “That's what happens when you have a chick name for your city.”\n\nWith this project\, we strike/suspend gender from the city’s name: Ann Arbor is neither trophy wife nor whore. Instead\, we pose Ann Arbor as a feminist cyborg\, a feminist map\, and a creative\, participatory organism. We construct the body of the city differently\, with artistic intervention and cyberfeminist means: physical and digital installation\, activations of public space\, music\, performances\, and workshops. From the Bell Tower on central campus to the parking lot of the Liberty Annex\, we offer a creative activation that is both physical and digital and a fluid/complex/distributed image of the city through both XR and feminist means.\n\nCurated by Alina Nazmeeva and Yvette Granata. In collaboration with Tiffany Ng\, Tyler Musgrave\, Julie Zhu\, and Anıl Çamcı. Supported by the Arts Initiative at University of Michigan.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:HET Brown Bag Seminar | Cryptographic Censorship
DESCRIPTION:The classical formulation of the weak cosmic censorship conjecture (WCCC) – the statement that singularities resulting from gravitational collapse are generically hidden behind event horizons – is most probably false. However\, I will argue that there is compelling evidence that some version of it should be true in quantum gravity. Working towards a quantum gravitational formulation of the WCCC\, I will prove “Cryptographic Censorship”\, a theorem that provides a general condition for the formation of event horizons in AdS/CFT: sufficiently (pseudo)random boundary dynamics. I will also provide a classification of sizes of singularities\, and show that “large”\, “classical” singularities – the ones that the WCCC should rule out – are compatible with sufficiently (pseudo)random dynamics. Thus\, if such singularities are indeed described by (pseudo)random dynamics\, then they cannot exist in the absence of event horizons.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Divorce Law Reforms\, Matrimonial Regimes and Family Behaviour
DESCRIPTION:We study how divorce laws affect household formation\, dissolution\, and behaviour in Mexico\, where (i) couples are able to choose an asset division regime at the time of marriage\; (ii) states experienced a staggered adoption of no-fault divorce\; and (iii) cohabitation is prevalent. Using linked administrative data and an event study design we show that the shift to unilateral divorce affected couples' partnership choice by increasing cohabitation and the degree of assortative mating. While this shift did not have a significant impact on the choice of asset division regime\, the increase in divorce rates were largest among those marriages choosing community property. The same reforms also led to an overall increase in women's leisure time. To rationalize these empirical patterns\, we develop an equilibrium limited-commitment model of partnership formation\, asset division regime choice\, and household dissolution that allows couples to choose between cohabitation and marriage and for spouses to cease cooperation within marriage. We use our model to evaluate the life-time welfare value of divorce laws and asset division regime choice\, and also consider the role of a homemaker compensation clause. \n\n\nThis talk is presented by the Labor Economics Seminar\, sponsored in part by the Department of Economics with generous gifts given through the Abraham and Thelma Zwerdling Labor Economics Program.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | Quantum Entanglement in Nature
DESCRIPTION:Entanglement is the strangest feature of quantum theory\, which Einstein dubbed \"spooky action at a distance\". Quantum entanglement can occur on a large scale with millions of electrons\, leading to \"strange metals\" and novel superconductors which can conduct electricity without resistance even at relatively high temperatures. Remarkably\, related entanglement structures also arise across the horizon of a black hole\, and give rise to Hawking’s black hole entropy. I will describe a simple model of many particle quantum entanglement which has shed light on long-standing problems in these distinct physical systems.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MIPSE Seminar | To Ignition and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nThe National Ignition Facility (NIF) at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory is the world’s most energetic laser now capable of providing 2.2 MJ of laser light at 351 nm to the target chamber.  The primary goal of NIF is to demonstrate fusion ignition (and then as high-as-possible yield)\, an un-precedented proof-of-principle.  On August 8\, 2021\, fusion ignition was demonstrated at NIF according to several ignition metrics.  This was achieved using the indirectly driven laser fusion concept\, where laser light is converted to x-rays upon striking the interior of a high-Z cavity\, creating a radiation oven for a capsule comprised of heavy hydrogen fuel (which when driven to appropriate conditions undergoes fusion) surrounded by an ablator.  The experiment\, N210808\, burned about 2% of the fuel\, using 1.9 MJ of laser energy and producing 1.37 MJ of fusion yield.  Repeat experiments showed variability to unintentional degradations such as capsule quality and low mode asymmetries\, and so\, to enhance robustness\, a larger capsule was fielded\, using 7% more laser energy\, i.e.\, 2.05 MJ.  This experiment (N221204)\, and its repeat (N230729)\, achieved 3.15 and 3.88 MJ of fusion yield\, or a target gain of 1.5 -1.9\, burning up to 5% of the fuel.\n     This presentation reviews background material and guiding principles\, as well as important lessons learned.  Additionally\, the challenges that lie ahead of the national inertial confinement fusion program will be outlined.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nDr. Denise Hinkel is a physicist at Lawrence Livermore National Lab and serves as Modeling Lead for the Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF) Program as well as Associate Division Leader for ICF and High Energy Density Physics (HED) in the Design Physics Division.  She is also technical coordinator of a special program.  Denise’s expertise spans theoretical analyses to massively parallel computing\, basic plasma physics to reduced model descriptions and design and analysis of laser-based experiments using radiation-hydrodynamics simulations.  She applied her design expertise to a series of NIF shots known as the “High Foot”\, where for the first time the energy released in fusion reactions exceeded the energy used to compress the fuel.  Denise has served as the point-of-contact for Laboratory Directed Research and Development\, managing the portfolio and developing strategic plans with her directorate and institution.  Denise received the MS and PhD in Physics from UCLA and became Fellow of the American Physical Society (APS) in 2007.  In 2022\, she served as Chair of the APS Division of Plasma Physics. She has received multiple awards\, has provided physics outreach to students of all ages\, and has served on many review committees.\n\nThis is a hybrid event.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Algebraic Geometry Seminar: Hom schemes for algebraic groups
DESCRIPTION:Grothendieck showed that morphisms of projective varieties are parameterized by a scheme. This fails tremendously for affine varieties. However\, group structures tend to be rigidifying\, and indeed homomorphisms of affine groups are sometimes also parameterized by a scheme. In this talk\, I will discuss the general problem of parameterizing homomorphisms of algebraic groups\, both over a field (at first) and over a general base (by the end). Over a field\, the main result has a surprisingly elementary proof\, which we will describe. We will also give several examples throughout which illustrate strange phenomena that crop up.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:DCMB / CCMB Weekly Seminar featuring Christina Leslie\, PhD (of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nThe last several years have brought notable successes in the application of machine learning approaches\, and especially deep learning models\, to problems in single-cell and regulatory genomics.  The advent of single-cell chromatin accessibility (scATAC-seq) and multiome (scRNA+ATAC-seq) brings new machine learning challenges and opportunities to link chromatin state to developmental trajectories\, gene regulation\, and even higher order chromatin organization. We will present recent models from our group to exploit these new single-cell data modalities: CellSpace\, a sequence-informed embedding algorithm for scATAC-seq that learns biologically meaningful latent structure while mitigating batch effects\; SCARlink\, a gene-level regression model for multiome data that identifies cell-type-specific enhancers and enables interpretation of disease-associated genetic variants\; and ChromaFold\, a deep learning model that predicts the 3D contact map from scATAC-seq alone.\n\nhttps://umich-health.zoom.us/j/93929606089?pwd=SHh6R1FOQm8xMThRemdxTEFMWWpVdz09

DESCRIPTION:I plan to begin with an introduction to topoi\, which are categories with a very rich structure. I’ll relate that structure to the weaker category-theoretic structures that were discussed in previous seminars\, and I’ll explain how the extra structure of topoi connects them with richer logics. If time permits\, I’ll indicate how topoi can be built from the syntactic side of these logics.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Mean-Field Games for Scalable Computation and Diverse Applications
DESCRIPTION:Mean field games (MFGs) study strategic decision-making in large populations where individual players interact via specific mean-field quantities. They have recently gained enormous popularity as powerful research tools with vast applications. For example\, the Nash equilibrium of MFGs forms a pair of PDEs\, which connects and extends variational optimal transport problems. This talk will present recent progress in this direction\, focusing on computational MFG and engineering applications in robotics path planning\, pandemics control\, and Bayesian/AI sampling algorithms. This is based on joint work with the MURI team led by Stanley Osher (UCLA).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CREES Book Talk Featuring Elena Kostyuchenko\, Russian independent journalist and writer
DESCRIPTION:Elena Kostyuchenko will present her new book\, *I Love Russia: Reporting from a Lost Country.* Her book is a collection of reportage and personal essays from the past 15 years. To be a journalist is to tell the truth. *I Love Russia* is Kostyuchenko's unrelenting attempt to document her country as experienced by those whom it systematically and brutally erases: village girls recruited into sex work\, queer people in the outer provinces\, patients and doctors at a Ukrainian maternity ward\, and reporters like herself.\n\nKostyuchenko is a Russian independent journalist. She was a special correspondent for *Novaya Gazeta *for 17 years until the newspaper shut down in March 2022 due to pressure from the Russian government. She reports on armed conflicts\, crime\, human rights\, and social issues and was among the first journalists to document the presence of Russian troops in Eastern Ukraine\, covering the Russian full-scale invasion of Ukraine since its second day. Currently\, she collaborates with the exiled independent Russian media network Meduza. Kostyuchenko has received multiple journalism awards\, including the European Press Prize\, the Gerd Bucerius Prize Free Press of Eastern Europe\, and the Paul Klebnikov Prize.\n\nKostyuchenko will be joined in conversation by Professor Elizabeth King\, CREES Director. \n\nA book signing will follow the lecture\, with Kostyuchenko's book available for purchase from Literati.\n\nCo-sponsors: Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures\,  Institute for Research on Women and Gender\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact crees@umich.edu.
