However\, state-owned utilities dominate the electricity sector in many countries\, risking political capture and distorted investments. This paper studies nationwide electrification in Kenya\, where major democratization and decentralization reforms have advanced political accountability. Pro-government areas received 46% more electrified villages and 35% more household connections than determined by the official non-partisan\, pre-existing formula guiding program implementation. Favoritism was driven by national rather than local officials. Despite the success of decentralization in some sectors\, central coordination and economies of scale may still expose energy infrastructure to political capture.

The seventeen life-size figures\, crafted from found objects and beach flotsam\, are a poignant response to the tragedies in Savageau’s life\, including the loss of her three children. Through this deeply personal and powerful work\, Savageau reimagines discarded materials as symbols of new life and resilience\, reflecting the healing power of art.\n\nAnn Savageau will be in residence in Ann Arbor and the Residential College from September 16-20 and October 20-25\, 2024. During her stay\, you are warmly invited to join us for a special artist reception on October 23\, from 4:30 to 6:00 pm in the Gallery.

Since 2004\, Glazer has been lead faculty and head of ceramics at Henry Ford College\, and former faculty of Concord College (WV) and North Dakota State University. His artwork has been exhibited throughout the country.\n\nThroughout his adult life the art of Steve Glazer has been done as a response to his environment. From a series of shadow box type pieces containing life like ceramic fish while teaching at a Catholic woman’s college\, to building 8’ tall ceramic “skyscrapers” that barely fit into the display spaces while teaching in North Dakota\, where no skyscrapers exist\, and then creating installations commenting on living in Appalachia while teaching in southern West Virginia. After returning home to Detroit\, Glazer began his griot series\, the “Motor City Griot Society” masks\, the faces of the superheroes that will save Detroit\, and more recently the “Motor City Griot Patrol” creatures that will protect the city of Detroit.

She collects and arranges images\, builds and subtracts\, and uses processes that suit the concepts and gives the pieces a reason for existing as textiles. Simultaneously she strives to make the medium influence the outcome in such a way that cloth and image meld together. Moran uses silkscreen\, shibori\, and stitching to embed images from her daily walks into the fabric. it's important that the work builds slowly\, involving meditative processes that connect her to the cloth and the source of the design.\n\nGallery hours: Monday-Friday\, 9 am to 5pm or by appointment serrag@med.umich.edu UID:124224-21852697@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/124224 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Alumni,Art,Culture,Detroit,Exhibition,Free,Graduate Students,North Campus,Visual Arts LOCATION:North Campus Research Complex Building 18 - Rotunda Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240829T141316 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241003T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241003T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Butch Closet DESCRIPTION:In the multi-media installation *The Butch Closet*\, artist Phranc illustrates her life stories as a queer artist\, Jewish lesbian folk singer\, and \"cardboard cobbler.\" By meticulously re-creating personal objects and pieces of clothing out of paper\, cardboard\, thread\, and paint\, she revisits her own history\, contextualizing her experiences as an iconic performer\, and maker\, constructing\, reconstructing\, and re-imagining her image against a larger historical context of second-wave feminism and queer activism. The institute's presentation of *The Butch Closet* is the second iteration of the project\, offering a more intimate and immersive engagement with Phranc's sculptural works. As part of the installation\, visitors can peer into a closet built in the center of the gallery designed by the artist. Conceptually\, the space shifts from inside to outside\, public and private\, and explores themes of visibility and that which remains inaccessible or unseen.\n\nAbout the artist:\nPhranc is a jewish lesbian folksinger and queer artist who uses song\, painting and sculpture to champion personal identities and illustrate the struggle\, survival\, and victory of the queer individual. An internationally acclaimed and award winning performer. Phranc’s work integrates humor and a butch lesbian aesthetic. Her current project\, Phranc Talk: The Butch Closet\, is a multi-media memoir that spans her 40-year career. Phranc lives and works in Santa Monica\, California and Vancouver\, British Columbia.\n\n*Phranc is the 2024 Woodhead Visiting Artist at the Institute for the Humanities.* UID:123255-21850620@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/123255 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:american culture,Art,Exhibition,Feminism,Gender,Humanities,LGBT,visual arts LOCATION:Thayer Academic Building - Institute for the Humanities Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241018T063245 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241003T093000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241003T113000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Meet PwC Middle East - Detroit DESCRIPTION:We're visiting Detroit on Thursday 3rd October and we'd love to meet you and talk about our graduate opportunities in the Middle East.

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.

The exhibition highlights the significance of community-based conversations between mother and daughter\, and their ongoing conversations with elders (ancestors)\, young folx\, and future generations as vital aspects of their methodology. These conversations often take place during basket gatherings - where community members come together and share stories and teachings that can encompass Anishinaabe creation stories\, as well as those of survivance and resilience\, to inform the materiality and liveness of their work. The curatorial and interpretive framework of this exhibition contends that the deeply situated and temporal works by Church (Stamps\, BFA 1998) and Parrish (LSA\, BA 2020) are repositories for Anishinaabe ways of knowing\, thinking\, and making that contribute to the complexity of American art and its histories. The expansive and bold practices of Church and Parrish affirm the sovereignty of Anishinaabe lifeways and the importance of including Indigenous narratives that have systematically been left out. Thus\, the thematic survey of their work will explore the under-examined themes that inform their work such as Native women’s labor as carriers of culture and knowledge-keepers\, the legacy of boarding schools and ancestors who walked on\, the treaties in Michigan and the long-overlooked legacy of Anishinaabe intellectual life and their relevance today. Just like the practice of weaving and interlacing distinct strips of black ash to create one whole\, Church and Parrish will address the diverse and interconnected themes with approximately 30-35 works\, including 15-17 new works. Together\, the exhibition offers an incisive critique of the colonial\, racist paradigm of systemic erasure and assimilation that continues to this day\, with the ongoing crises of missing and murdered Indigenous women\, culture wars\, and climate change that threaten Indigenous ways of living\, sustenance\, and making. \nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra with Curatorial Assistant Zoi Crampton.\nStamps Gallery is grateful to Michigan Humanities and U-M Arts Initiative for generously supporting the exhibition and programs.

Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home\, placemaking\, labor\, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body\, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade\, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley\, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.\nArtist’s bio:\nMichelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist\, educator\, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas\, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting\, bead weaving\, embroidery\, jewelry\, transparent film installations\, painting\, ceramics\, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story\, re-make\, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx\, Chicanx\, Mexican\, and Texican peoples. \n\nRecently\, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan\, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania)\, Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen\, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas\, TX).

We illustrate the kinetic and thermodynamic challenges in directing catalytic routes for the conversion of these critical feedstocks to products of higher value in the context of two case studies.\nStrong\, apolar C-H bonds in methane confer significant thermodynamic barriers for non-oxidative conversion of methane to aromatics. Medium pore MFI zeolites modified by well-dispersed carbidic molybdenum aggregates (MoCx/ZSM-5) reduce kinetic barriers to methane pyrolysis and catalyze dehydroaromatization (DHA) reactions with high benzene (≳ 70%) and aromatic (≳ 95%) selectivity at conversions near the ~10% equilibrium limit at ~950 K. We combine learnings from thermodynamics\, reaction kinetics\, and mass transport to clarify mechanistic observations and ascertain the identity of molecular events\, species\, and catalytic moieties that determine the activity of benchmark DHA catalysts. In doing so\, we illustrate the significance of dispersive hydrogen transport at catalyst-bed length scales during DHA catalysis\, and we leverage this understanding to develop polyfunctional catalytic formulations that alleviate thermodynamic constraints on maximum single-pass conversion in DHA catalysis.\nWe resolve persistent mechanistic questions regarding the selectivity to methanol and CO in competing CO2 hydrogenation pathways\, the reaction intermediates involved\, and the evolution in structure and function of commercial Cu/ZnO/Al2O3 catalyst using the general conceptual framework for analyzing rates and reversibility of catalytic reaction sequences. These kinetic analyses provide thermodynamic constraints precluding sequential reverse water gas shift and CO hydrogenation as the pathway for methanol generation\, reveal hydrogen and water as species salient in determining methanol selectivity and yield by impacting both the forward and reverse rates of CO2 hydrogenation on Cu/ZnO/Al2O3\, and illustrate that catalysis occurs on H*- and HCOOH**-saturated surfaces where methanol synthesis proceeds through a formate pathway with rate-determining steps that are dependent on water partial pressures while RWGS proceeds through a carboxylate pathway with one rate-determining step.\n\nSpeaker Bio: Aditya Bhan received his Bachelor of Technology (B.

Spangler Professor in the Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering at the University of Wisconsin-Madison\, and he served as the department's chairperson from 2016 to 2021. Prof. Linderoth holds a courtesy appointment in the Computer Sciences department and as a Discovery Fellow at the Wisconsin Institutes of Discovery. Dr. Linderoth received his Ph.D. degree from the Georgia Institute of Technology in 1998. He was previously employed in the Mathematics and Computer Science Division at Argonne National Laboratory\, with the optimization-based financial products firm of Axioma\, and as an Assistant Professor at Lehigh University. His awards include multiple best paper awards\, an Early Career Award from the Department of Energy\, the SIAM Activity Group on Optimization Prize\, and the INFORMS Computing Society (ICS) Prize. In 2016\, he was elected to membership as an INFORMS Fellow. Dr. Linderoth was once stranded in Marseille with Jon Lee for five days.\n\nAbstract: We consider a two-stage stochastic decision problem where the decision-maker has the opportunity to obtain information about the distribution of the random variables X through a set of discrete actions that we refer to as probing. Specifically\, probing allows the decision-maker to observe components of a random vector Y that is jointly distributed with X. We propose a three-stage optimization model for this problem\, wherein the first-stage variables select components of Y to observe\, and decisions in subsequent stages must be consistent with the obtained information. In the case that X and Y have finite support\, Goel and Grossmann gave a mixed-integer programming formulation of this problem whose size is proportional to the square of cardinality of the sample space of the random variables. We propose to solve the model using bounds obtained from an information-based relaxation\, combined with a branching scheme that enforces the consistency of decisions with observed information. The branch-and-bound approach can naturally be combined with sampling in order to estimate both lower and upper bounds on the optimal solution value. We demonstrate the scalability of our approach against the exact MIP formulation on instances of a stochastic facility location problem.

DEI is particularly necessary for cultivating the next generation of engineers who are representative of the communities that they serve\, assuring that young engineers can achieve success\, regardless of their backgrounds\, and nurturing students throughout their academic journeys. Biomedical engineering design is well-suited to the purposeful integration of DEI because it is human-centric\, emphasizing people's specific needs and creating solutions that may lead to equitable outcomes. In this talk\, I will share efforts that colleagues and I have undertaken to intentionally incorporate DEI into the biomedical engineering design process\, specifically exploring DEI in students' design efforts. From needs finding through prototyping and implementation\, I will show how DEI can be\, and has been\, constructively integrated into biodesign. By sharing this model\, I strive to demystify and de-stigmatize these approaches\, demonstrating the value of including DEI in design education.\n\nBio:\nAaron Kyle is a Professor of the Practice in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Duke University. His faculty role focuses on teaching undergraduates with an emphasis on hands-on\, inquiry-based learning. Kyle teaches first year design\, medical device instrumentation\, and capstone design courses at Duke. In addition to working with undergraduates\, Kyle is passionate about engendering engineering identity in Grades 6 – 12 students\, particularly in students from underrepresented minority groups or disadvantaged backgrounds. He co-founded and leads the Outreach Design Education (ODE) Program\, an NIH-funded set of activities that revolve around enhancing STEM identity in younger students through engineering design education. As a result of ODE\, over 1000 students in New York and North Carolina have been introduced to engineering design through ODE-associated pre-college programs and courses.\n\nZoom:\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/94337625486\n\nQuestions?\nContact Lauren Yanakeff\, yanakeff@umich.edu UID:127012-21858296@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/127012 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biointerfaces,Biology,biomedical,biomedical engineering,Bioninterfaces,Biosciences,Biotechnology,bme,Diversity,Diversity Equity and Inclusion,Education,engineer,engineering,Medicine,Michigan Engineering,Research LOCATION:Lurie Biomedical Engineering (formerly ATL) - 1130 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240924T142510 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241003T153000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241003T162000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Department of Astronomy 2024-2025 Colloquium Series Presents: DESCRIPTION:\"Constraining cosmic history and cosmic-ray physics with radio emission\"\n\nThe peak in the cosmic star formation rate density—at z ~ 2—also marks the peak of dust attenuation\, making the full census of star formation activity at short wavelengths a measurement fraught with uncertainty. Fortunately\, radio emission from normal galaxies—free-free emission of massive stars\, and synchrotron emission of relativistic electrons shocked in the supernovae remnants of massive stars—is entirely unaffected by dust. It is only now that our telescopes have the sensitivity to constrain the star formation activity of populations of normal galaxies like our Milky Way over nearly all cosmic time. My results reveal a discrepancy between measurements of the SFRD at UV+IR wavelengths and at radio frequencies\, indicating we may be missing over half of the total star formation\, even at redshifts as low as z ~ 0.5. In this talk\, I will review ongoing and future plans to reveal the source(s) of this discrepancy. I will also present recent work on how radio emission from a nearby galaxy is illuminating the roles of cosmic-rays and magnetic fields in the enrichment of the ISM and CGM.

Over algebraically closed fields\, forms of high strength have various desirable geometric properties. In arithmetic applications (non-closed fields)\, it's therefore of considerable interest to bound the strength of a polynomial in terms of its strength over the algebraic closure. We will present a linear bound over Q\, proving a special case of a conjecture of Adiprasito\, Kazhdan and Ziegler. In the course of the proof\, we obtain a stronger result on rational solutions to systems of multi-linear equations\, which may be of independent interest.

Although Collins embraces a language of abstraction\, bold colors\, patterns\, and symbols allude to queer and feminist references\, sourcing further inspiration from interpersonal and environmental forces such as electricity\, volatility\, connectivity\, and energy exchange. Whether in the form of textile\, painting\, drawing\, or installation\, Collins frequently explores the dichotomy of structure and entropy—qualities inherent to textile that speak to the fissures present in broader architectural\, political\, and social structures. \n\nCollins’s current and forthcoming exhibitions include the 60th International Art Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia\, Foreigners Everywhere\, curated by Adriano Pedrosa\, and Woven Histories: Textiles and Modern Abstraction\, curated by Lynne Cooke\, at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art\, Los Angeles\, CA\; the National Gallery of Art\, Washington\, DC\; the National Gallery of Canada\, Ottawa\, ON\; and The Museum of Modern Art\, New York\, NY. In 2025\, Collins will have a mid-career retrospective curated by Kate Irvin at the RISD Museum in Providence\, RI\, with an accompanying monograph.\n\nCollins has been the subject of solo exhibitions at the Knoxville Museum of Art\, Knoxville\, TN\; the Museum of Arts and Design\, New York\, NY\; the Tang Teaching Museum and Art Gallery\, Saratoga Springs\, NY\; Touchstones Rochdale\, Rochdale\, UK\, among others. She has been featured in group exhibitions at the Institute of Contemporary Art\, Boston\, MA\; the Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art\, New York\, NY\; the Los Angeles County Museum of Art\, Los Angeles\, CA\; the National Gallery of Art\, Washington\, DC\; the New Museum\, New York\, NY\; The Drawing Center\, New York\, NY\; and The Museum of Modern Art\, New York\, NY\, among others. In 2020\, the Tang Teaching Museum and Art Gallery released Liz Collins — Energy Field\, the artist’s first major publication.\n\nPresented in partnership with Design Core Detroit.

Brian Rose\, professor of Mediterranean archaeology and curator-in-charge of the Mediterranean Section at the Penn Museum. \n\nThe West Sanctuary at Troy (Ilion) was one of the main religious complexes at the site during the Hellenistic and Roman periods. The sanctuary is exceptional due to its rich assemblage of votive objects and integration of the cults of Cybele\, Dardanus\, and the Samothracian Gods. All of these cults are tied to Ilion’s Homeric heritage\, as well as to the Romans\, once they began promoting their Trojan ancestry. This talk provides an overview of the significance of the West Sanctuary and the strategies that we employed in its architectural conservation. The latter subject\, in turn\, is tied to the question of how an archaeologist handles or mishandles the staging of history.\n\nThis event is being presented as part of our Thursday Night Lecture Series\, happening on select months during the academic year. Please join us in the Rackham Amphitheatre (located on the fourth floor of the Rackham Building) for an evening centered on exciting archaeological research and related topics.\n\nIf you have any questions or concerns regarding accessing this event\, please visit our accessibility page at https://myumi.ch/zwPkd or contact the education office by calling (734) 647-4167.

His latest project\, Where Are We\, marks the first time that Joshua has included a vocalist (Gabrielle Cavassa) on a record\, and features Aaron Parks on piano\, Joe Sanders on bass\, and Brian Blade on drums\; with special guests Nicholas Payton (trumpet)\, Kurt Rosenwinkel (guitar)\, Peter Bernstein (guitar)\, and Joel Ross (vibes). Joshua notes that “the surface concept of WHERE ARE WE is rather simple: each of the songs on the album is about\, or at least makes reference to\, a specific geographical location (city or state or region) in the United States: Bruce Springsteen’s “Streets of Philadelphia\,” Count Basie’s “Going To Chicago\,” Rodgers & Hart’s “Manhattan” and John Coltrane’s Alabama\,” etc etc… So\, on one level\, this is an album “about” America — at once a celebration and a critique. But it is also\, to varying degrees\, a ballads album\, a standards album\, an album of romantic longing\, an album of social reflection\, an album of melodic invention\, an album of improvisational adventure\, an album of mashups (stylistic and titular)\, perhaps even a tribute album of sorts.”\n\nConceived and planned during the pandemic lockdown\, states Joshua\, “it was a dream come true to finally have a chance to connect Aaron\, Joe\, and Brian — 3 of the most sublimely lyrical and deeply grooving musicians on the planet\, who\, somehow\, had never before played together as a rhythm section. And it was a transformative experience to collaborate with Gabrielle — a vocalist of uncommon style\, sincerity\, and soul. This was my first time ever recording with a singer on one of my own projects\, and I relished the challenge of discovering and inhabiting new musical roles for myself — not only as a featured soloist and “lead” but also as a supportive accompanist and interlocutor. The magic of this particular gathering of musicians was that we were able to come together from points afar\, to converge (physically and creatively) in a particular place at a particular time\, and to embrace\, with the fullest imagination and without the slightest reservation\, the ethic of “serving the songs.” In this sense\, WHERE ARE WE is perhaps above all\, a meditation on the power and importance of place — the unique human beauty created when we locate ourselves in shared physical spaces together with others\; the loss\, anomie\, and angst suffered when we divide ourselves unnaturally and unjustly apart.”\n\nThis concert is sponsored by the A2 JAZZ FEST.
