SUMMARY:Exhibition:Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World
DESCRIPTION:The exhibit \"Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World: Interracial Identity in the U.S. and Around the World — What Research and Mixed Race People Tell Us\" is an exploration into the library's collections about the diversity of mixed race heritage. Through research\, narratives\, demographic data\, and a variety of visual and published materials\, explore multifaceted aspects of mixed race heritage with insights from many perspectives.\n\nThe 2020 U.S. Census illuminated a 276 percent increase in individuals who identify as \"two or more races\" since 2010. In recognition of the growing numbers of mixed race-identifying people at the University of Michigan\, throughout the country\, and across the globe\, we're excited to unveil this new exhibit — a unique exploration of changing demographics and intersectional identities.\n\n[The Hatcher Library will be closed December 21 to January 1.]

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:DISCO Network DISCO Summit 2024
DESCRIPTION:DISCO Network | DISCO Summit\n\nDates: Friday\, June 14 – Saturday\, June 15\, 2024\nLocation: Weiser Hall\, 10th Floor\, University of Michigan-Ann Arbor \nModality: Hybrid (all events will be held in-person with an option for individuals to attend virtually via Zoom webinar)\n\nRegistration is required to attend the DISCO Summit.\n\nThe deadline for in-person registration is Tuesday\, May 14\, 2024.  Due to limited space in the venue\, in-person registration will close once we reach our maximum capacity. Register to attend in-person: https://myumi.ch/Pkrgg\n\nZoom webinar registration will be open until the end of the event. Register to attend via Zoom: https://myumi.ch/N61QZ\n\nEvent Description: \n\nThe DISCO Summit is a two-day interdisciplinary summer symposium about digital social inequalities in celebration of the third year of the DISCO Network. The DISCO Summit will include nine panel conversations about the past\, present\, and future of the intersection between digital technology\, culture\, race\, disability\, gender\, sexuality\, and liberation.\n\nThe DISCO Network is a collaborative\, intergenerational group of scholars dedicated to envisioning a new anti-racist and anti-ableist digital future. The DISCO Network comprises six labs across five universities: the Michigan Hub at the University of Michigan Digital Studies Institute (PI: Lisa Nakamura\, University of Michigan)\, HAT Lab (PI: Rayvon Fouché\; Northwestern University)\, DAF Lab (PI: M. Remi Yergeau\, University of Michigan)\, Future Histories Studio (PI: Stephanie Dinkins\, Stony Brook University)\, PREACH Lab (André Brock\, Georgia Institute of Technology)\, and BCaT Lab (Catherine Knight Steele\, University of Maryland-College Park). The DISCO Network is supported by the Mellon Foundation. \n\nThis event is free and open to the public. The DISCO Summit provides a platform for scholars\, students\, artists\, practitioners\, activists\, and community members to convene and engage in dialogue about racial inequality\, histories of exclusion\, disability justice\, techno-ableism\, and digital racial politics within the academy\, the technology industry\, and beyond. We especially welcome individuals whose interests lie in the intersection of the digital and identity and have found difficulties pursuing their endeavors at their home institutions. \n\nView additional information about the event: https://www.disconetwork.org/summit-2024\n\nEvent Schedule: \n\nDay 1: Friday\, June 14\, 2024 \n\n9:00 am - 10:15 am\nDigital Optimism with Lisa Nakamura\, Rayvon Fouché\, Stephanie Dinkins\, André Brock\, Remi Yergeau\, and Catherine Knight Steele\nOptimism is the belief that the interval between the now and liberation is where we can act. Digital optimism is the recognition that there are elements of life that vivify and energize in the here and the now\, despite and amidst the digital purgatories that we endure. Sometimes that energy is found in stillness\; sometimes in refusal\; and sometimes in moments of catharsis or joy. This panel will explore the concept of digital optimism as it appears in DISCO’s collaborative writing and work together.\n\n10:30 am - 11:45 am\nDigital Frictions with Remi Yergeau\, David Adelman\, Jeff Nagy\, Aimi Hamraie\, Jaipreet Virdi\, and Mara Mills\nIn their manifesto on crip technoscience\, Kelly Fritsch and Aimi Hamraie (2019) impress upon us that access production is a “frictional process\,” one that requires “acknowledging that science and technology can be used to both produce and dismantle injustice.” This roundtable explores the frictional intimacies\, practices\, and material conditions of what it means to do the digital. In particular\, panelists will consider myriad ways in which accessibility holds the potential to burn\, grate\, spark\, and tug at new imaginings of crip futures.\n\n1:00 pm - 2:15 pm\nDigital Black Feminist Pleasure and Pain Online with Catherine Knight Steele\, Rianna Walcott\, Brandi Pettijohn\, Francesca Sobande\, Kishonna Gray\, and Apryl Williams\nThe experiences of Black women online serve as a harbinger of what digital culture affords and what is to come. This panel thinks through the relationship between pleasure and pain in the online lives of Black women and how Black feminist methods\, epistemologies\, and strategies may point us toward a better digital future for us all. \n\n2:30 pm - 3:45 pm\nLittle Memes: Storying Race\, Gender\, and Disability in the Digital Studies Classroom with Remi Yergeau\, Toni Bushner\, Huan He\, and Lida Zeitlin-Wu\nHow do students’ stories about themselves or others—their anecdotal relations—inform their burgeoning understandings of digital inequality and related concepts? In this session\, we reflect on student interviews and instructor experiences drawn from a study of five U-M Digital Studies classes focused on race and disability.\n\n4:00 pm - 5:15 pm \nDigital Interventions: Recalibrating Optimism - A Workshop Facilitated by Catherine Knight Steele\, Rayvon Fouché\, Stephanie Dinkins\, and Kevin Winstead [IN-PERSON ONLY] \nIs optimism an antidote or salve for turmoil? Please join us in a collaborative discussion charting pathways for digital scholarship to build optimistic societal interventions that traverse the potentialities of joy\, sadness\, refusal\, skepticism\, and trust.\n\nDay 2: Saturday\, June 15\, 2024 \n\n9:00 am - 10:15 am\nBlack Innovation with Rayvon Fouché\, Aaron Dial\, Ron Eglash\, Michael Bennett\, Aria Halliday\, Tonia Sutherland\, and Ngozi Harrison\nBlack folks have a tradition of being innovative in ways not understood and expected by traditional markets\, dominant cultural formations\, or information platforms. As the world is enamored\, fascinated\, enraptured\, troubled\, or simply confused by the potentiality of generative AI\, is there a place and a role for Blackness to participate\, contribute\, or intervene in this next technoscientific atmospheric river? What will Black innovation and creativity look like in a world propelled by a network of AI trained on past utterances that did not see Blackness as meaningful? How can Blackness and Black innovation and creativity disrupt expected technoscientific futures? \n\n10:30 am - 11:45 am\nDigital Possibilities with Stephanie Dinkins\, Hagar Masoud\, Ria Rajan\, Cezanne Charles\, and Audrey Bennet\n\"Digital Possibilities\"  presents an intergenerational panel of arts practitioners who explore the critical role deliberate exploration and practical research play in understanding and shaping digital technologies and culture.  The panel showcases the transformative power deeply engaging digital technologies can have on molding practical\, aspirational\, and equitable understandings of self and society.   Panelists discuss how practice can leverage discovery\, curiosity\, out-of-the-box thinking\, and leadership to mine and challenge opportunities\, or the lack thereof\, for beauty\, potentiality\, subjugation\, and liberation that digital technologies often carry.  The panel also engages thought about how future\, present\, and past technologies combined with narratives centering on underutilized\, underrecognized communities can be coaxed or developed to produce technological ecosystems that produce nuanced\, open\, and equitably informed digital tools\, platforms\, and collaborators.\n\n1:00 pm - 2:15 pm\nMajority World Digital Infrastructures with Lisa Nakamura\, Huan He\, Jasmine Banks\, Marisa Duarte\, Ivan Chaar Lopez\, and Meryem Kamil\nDigital infrastructure shapes access\, representation\, and cultural politics. Indigenous\, Asian and Southeast Asian\, Palestinian\, U.S. Mexico border\, and women of color uses of digital networks are often represented as niche or marginal\, sequestered in area studies\, ethnic studies\, and women studies\, yet the U.S. and Western Europe are the numerical minority.\n\n2:30 pm - 3:45 pm\nLegibility and Community in Digital Studies with Huan He\, Kevin Winstead\, David Adelman\, Aaron Dial\, Jeff Nagy\, Rianna Walcott\, Brandy Pettijohn\, and Lida Zeitlin-Wu\nAs junior scholars\, the Digital Inquiry Speculation Collaboration Optimism (DISCO) Network postdoctoral fellows faced unique challenges negotiating the tensions of being legible for academic employment and serving digital studies projects that foster collaboration and community. This panel discusses best practices for being young career scholars in critical identity and digital studies.  \n\nWe would like to thank the following co-sponsors:\n- Department of Afroamerican and African Studies\n- Department of American Culture\n- Department of Communication and Media\n- Department of English Literature and Language\n- Department of Film\, Television\, and Media\n- Department of History\n- Department of History of Art\n- Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies \n- Science\, Technology\, and Society Program \n- University of Michigan Initiative on Disability Studies\n- Center for Racial Justice\n- Science\, Technology\, and Public Policy\n- Office of Multi-Ethnic Student Affairs\n- Spectrum Center\n- Marsal Family School of Education Office of Diversity\, Inclusion\, Justice\, and Equity \n- Computer Science and Engineering\n- School of Information Center for Ethics\, Society\, and Computing\n- Institute for Research on Women & Gender\n\nAccessibility statement: We strive to make our events accessible to all participants.\n- Communication Access Real-time Translation (CART) services will be provided. \n- All attendees are requested to wear well-fitting masks.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Nicole Ray Art Exhibit: State of Play
DESCRIPTION:Dates: Saturday June 8 - Sunday August 25\n\nReception: Saturday June 8\, 2pm-4pm MBG West Lobby\n\nWhat is play? Who’s to say? The animals of these fields and woods\, streams and ponds surely know. They take time each day to adventure and roam\, scamper and scout. The plants and trees excitedly join in. Some bend and sway and some glisten in rain. Perhaps each invites their friends from away to come and show them new ways of play. Let’s have a look and spend the day imagining what happens when we look away. An exploration of encounters real and imagined by local artist\, Nicole Ray. \n\nBio\n\nNicole Ray is an artist and illustrator living in Brighton\, Michigan. She grew up in a small beach town in New York with her toes deep in the sand and her head buried in books. Nicole creates a whimsical line of art prints and paper goods under the name Sloe Gin Fizz.\n\nFrom quirky animal and vegetable characters to nostalgia-filled interiors and calming views of nature\, Nicole’s hand-drawn scenes are highly accessible\, infused with a playful sense of humor and a strong narrative quality. \n\nNicole holds a BFA in Illustration from the School of Visual Arts\, as well as a BA in History from Trinity College in Hartford\, CT. Nicole and her mister live in a log house on a lake just north of Ann Arbor with a spoiled border collie named Stella and an ever-expanding network of critter friends.

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: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: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:Performance:Buffalo Rose
DESCRIPTION:Buffalo Rose is a charismatic six-piece modern folk/Americana band from Pittsburgh\, PA. They take the singer-songwriter tradition to a new level by crafting original songs which are emotive\, meticulously arranged\, and inspired by a world of idiosyncratic influences that never let a dull or predictable moment creep in.\n\nBuffalo Rose's lineup of Lucy Clabby (vocals)\, Margot Jezerc (vocals)\, Bryce Rabideau (mandolin)\, Malcolm Inglis (dobro)\, Jason Rafalak (upright bass)\, and Shane McLaughlin (guitar\, vocals) pushes itself and each other far beyond their perceived limits and blends their diverse and atypical approach to songwriting with the desire to see how unique a song can get and still feel like home. They use powerful vocal harmonies\, strong playing\, and an original vision to operate at every possible emotional level and put on dynamic live shows that are unforgettable experiences. They go from up and moving to sad and sweet and back again\, bringing the entire audience along. \n\nRather than play the folk music of the past\, the band gleefully combines genres and ideas together to move acoustic music forward to a new\, contemporary place without ever losing sight of its roots. Fans of Lake Street Dive\, Nickel Creek\, and Punch Brothers will find much to like in this crew. Anyone seeking compelling new acoustic music needs to join Buffalo Rose in the future right now.
