SUMMARY:Exhibition:Consequence - Group Art Exhibition - Art as Environmental Activism
DESCRIPTION:This group exhibition is an in-depth exploration of the role of art as a powerful catalyst for environmental activism. At first glance\, these works each possess striking beauty. However\, a closer inspection reveals a profound and often unsettling depth that challenges one’s perceptions. \n\nThe artworks are imbued with many layers of meaning\, inviting us to engage critically with the themes presented and encouraging us to reflect on our often-fraught relationship with the natural world.   Through a variety of mediums and techniques\, these works prompt us to confront uncomfortable truths about climate change\, habitat loss\, and the disappearing biodiversity around us. \n\nCampbell’s captivating “Heatscape” series transforms what is often an intangible concept into the tangible realm by visually translating heat distribution data to depict the impact of urban design on climate.  This series offers a profound exploration of the intriguing phenomenon known as \"urban heat islands”\, a term that describes urban areas that absorb and radiate significantly more heat than their surrounding rural landscapes due to human activities and infrastructure.\n\n“Heatscape” invites us to engage in a deeper reflection about the profound impact that human ingenuity has wielded over the natural world\, serving as a visual reminder of our responsibility to urban design that is considerate to the environment and communities it impacts. This work challenges us to recognize the interplay between our lifestyles and the environment\, urging a dialogue about sustainable practices that could mitigate the effects of these heat islands.\n\nSnider’s work powerfully illustrates the remnants of industrialization\, capturing the unsettling essence of its aftermath. In his art\, we encounter an urban landscape that is strikingly devoid of human presence\, creating an almost haunting atmosphere. This absence of people amplifies the eerie feeling and serves as a warning about the enduring consequences of industrial progress. It prompts viewers to reflect on the environmental impact and the transformations that society has undergone\, urging us to consider what aspects of our world will persist in the wake of such change. Ultimately\, Snider’s poignant depictions challenge us to confront the stark reality of a landscape altered by human activity\, inviting contemplation on both the beauty and the desolation that can coexist in our modern environments.\n\nSandra Osip’s sculptures delve deeply into the juxtaposition of decay and destruction alongside the concepts of life and growth. Through her abstract structures\, she illustrates the profound effects climate change has on our urban landscapes and the planet as a whole. These pieces serve as a poignant reminder of the delicate balance between nature and human impact\, while Osip’s imaginative flowers evoke a sense of nostalgia and loss\, symbolizing the beauty of what has been irretrievably diminished in our world. By celebrating these natural forms\, she not only honors the richness of biodiversity but also raises awareness about the environmental crisis we face.\n\nCassells’ work not only celebrates a profound connection to nature and sustainable practices but also serves to illuminate the significant impact that climate change has on vulnerable communities. Through her art\, she investigates the intricate relationships between different environmental systems\, emphasizing how they are all interconnected. \n\nBy delving into these themes\, Cassells sheds light on the challenges faced by communities that often bear the brunt of climate change despite contributing the least to the problem. Her exploration encourages a deeper understanding of how environmental changes affect social structures and the lives of people in marginalized areas. In doing so\, she advocates for greater awareness and action to address these issues\, ultimately promoting a more sustainable and equitable future for all. \n\nShanna Merola’s photo-collages are informed by the stories of environmental justice struggles past and present.  Shanna Merola and Halima Afi Cassells collaborated on collage and interactive installations for over five years. Researching\, wandering\, photographing\, and creating together while interrogating the interconnectedness of environmental degradation\, and global corporatism\, and community response.\n\nSobel takes a more straightforward approach by helping us begin to grasp the reality of living in a world affected by climate change.  Her work described as “wilderness-based\, science-inspired”\, serves as a bridge\, connecting viewers to experiences that might seem too distant or unfolding too slowly for most people to comprehend firsthand. In doing so\, she not only raises awareness but also encourages dialogue about the pressing challenges our planet faces. Through her work\, Sobel facilitates a deeper understanding of the interconnection between humanity and the environment\, compelling us to reflect on our role in addressing these urgent issues.\n\nThese diverse approaches to creating art serve as powerful connections to the most critical and pressing environmental issues of our time. This engagement serves to deepen our understanding of these challenges from multiple perspectives\, including cultural\, social\, and scientific viewpoints.  \nFurthermore\, these approaches are not only meant to inform but also to inspire. They challenge us to reconsider our relationship with the planet and encourage us to take actionable steps toward sustainability.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Brothers and Uncles\, Kings and Typecutters
DESCRIPTION:Explore the evolution of the printed page through the prism of one remarkable family of scholar-printers. \n\nPrinting changed the speed and scale at which information circulated. Over a century\, scholarly printers competed to produce carefully edited editions. As they produced more and more\, they developed methods\, such as page-layout and indices\, to make their books easy to read\, and they created dictionaries and reference books so a reader could get more from their books.\n\nThe Estienne family of printers are among the most renowned and long-lasting printing houses of the era. Family links and investment in scholarly training helped them to sustain a business in the print trade for six generations in France and Switzerland.\n\nThe Special Collections Research Center holds nearly 80 imprints dating from the first years of the sixteenth century into the reign of Louis XIV. View nineteen examples chosen to show the breadth of the Michigan Estienne collection in an era of amazing change.\n\nImage: Detail from \"Polemōnos\, Himeriou\, kai allōn tinōn meletai\,\" by Henri Estienne\, Paris 1567. The Olive tree device is the best-known emblem of the Estienne house\, surviving in over a dozen forms. First used by Robert I in 1526\, it refers to a passage in Romans 11 that praises humility in the face of divine will.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cathy Barry Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Cathy Barry has a profound connection to the natural world\, which has shaped her artistic journey. She focuses on expressing gratitude\, compassion\, and a sense of responsibility towards environmental protection. After years of working with traditional media such as oil\, acrylic\, and watercolor\, her art is transitioning to more sustainable materials. The pigments she uses in her collages are sourced entirely from plants\, all collected and processed by Cathy herself from various locations throughout Michigan. This natural paint has become a vital part of her expressive palette\, driving her to approach her work with a renewed sense of integrity and awareness of our interconnected ecosystem.\n\nIn her collages\, Cathy skillfully combines paper painted with her homemade botanical pigments and intricately punched shapes\, creating a distinctive micro-scale vocabulary. These miniature worlds are thoughtfully assembled within larger contexts\, challenging our perceptions of the universe and our place within it.\n\nRecently\, Cathy has embarked on a new adventure: creating art directly from plant materials. By collecting\, drying\, and weaving leaves\, she has developed an exciting rhythm in her process. Through simple weaving\, twining\, and basketry techniques\, she has deepened her enthusiasm for and connection to the plants surrounding her in her yard and neighborhood. This integration of materials with form and subject in her work evokes a serene wholeness that reflects nature's inherent wisdom. Additionally\, her journey has sparked a curiosity to explore the historical uses and roles of plants throughout history.\n\nCathy Barry is an artist and instructor living and working in Ann Arbor\, Mi. She is a Lecturer in the University of Michigan (UM) Stamps School of Art and Design\, the UM Program in the Environment and the UM Biological Station.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:ICE in the Heartland: Community Impacts of Worksite Immigration Raids
DESCRIPTION:ICE in the Heartland showcases a multifaceted project that gathers and disseminates the stories of communities impacted by immigration worksite raids with the aim of bringing underrepresented narratives to news media\, classroom\, and public discourse. This project comprises qualitative public health research conducted in impacted communities and visual arts generated from the research outcomes. Research teams of graduate and undergraduate students from the University of Michigan\, led by Professor William Lopez\, and the University of Iowa\, led by Professor Nicole Novak\, collaborated with a range of community members and organizers at sites of six large-scale immigration worksite raids that occurred in 2018 in Iowa\, Nebraska\, Ohio\, Tennessee\, and Texas. The researchers visited these sites\, spoke to advocates\, detainees\, their families\, and other community members. In conversation with the seventy-seven interviews\, artists Dalia Harris and Carolina Jones Ortiz generated ten images that comprise ICE in the Heartland. On display with the artworks are community member testimonies\, analysis on the public health detriments to immigration worksite raids and deportation\, insights to the artists’ methods\, and the curricular materials used in public outreach programs. \n\nHosted and sponsored by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Department of Women’s and Gender Studies\, U-M.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Art Exhibit- Closer: A look at the tiny world around us
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an exhibit featuring the photography of Joseph Ferraro\, free and open to the public at Matthaei Botanical Gardens.\n\n \n\nBIO\n\nJoseph is a conservation photographer living and working in southeast Michigan. In 2014\, using macro photography to explore his backyard garden\, he unknowingly began walking a naturalist’s path and documenting native pollinators and invertebrates. His large format prints of local invertebrates are currently on exhibit outside of the Belle Isle Nature Center\, with other works on exhibit inside the Center. With them\, he seeks to inspire viewers to take a closer look at the tiny world around us.\n\n \n\nArtist Statement\n\nTo me\, the little things matter.\n\nThrough my work as a photographer\, I share the unseen and overlooked world of nature that surrounds us. My focus is exploring the world of invertebrates and showcasing these creatures in their natural habitat.\n\nMy creative process has evolved into a moving mediation\, as I Slow down to observe\, document and connect with my subjects as we interact in the environment. Ultimately\, I seek to capture the unique beauty of creatures not usually perceived as beautiful and aim to create images that evoke emotion and curiosity. In so doing I strive to raise awareness of the importance of these creatures in our world and dispel any fears the viewer may have.\n\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/josephferraro/\n\nWeb: https://www.joseph-ferraro.com

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Desirable Ranking
DESCRIPTION:We study the problem of aggregating individual preferences over alternatives into a collective ranking. A distinctive feature of our setting is that agents are matched to alternatives. Applications include rankings of colleges or academic journals. The foundation of our approach is that alternatives agents desire---that is\, those they rank above their match---should also be ranked higher socially. We introduce axioms to formalize this idea and call rankings that satisfy them desirable. We develop an algorithm to construct desirable rankings and prove that\, as the market becomes large\, desirable rankings converge to the true underlying ranking of the alternatives by quality. We support this convergence result through simulations and demonstrate the practical usefulness of our approach by ranking Chilean medical programs with data from their centralized admission system. Finally\, we compare performance and show that our approach outperforms two benchmarks: revealed preference rankings and Borda counts.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Fore-Site (Phase 1): The Stamps Gallery Pillar Project
DESCRIPTION:Phase 1 Opening Reception: September 18\, 6:30 – 8:30 p.m.\nFrom September 2025 through August 2026\, Stamps Gallery is partnering in a curatorial collaboration with two Ypsilanti-based\, artist-run project spaces led by Stamps alumni: C.Y.N.K. Studios\, directed by Sally Clegg (Lecturer III and Student Exhibition Coordinator\, MFA ’20) and Abhishek Narula (MFA ’20)\; and Sometimes Space\, directed by Nathan Byrne (Lecturer I\, MFA ’21). Each space hosts dozens of artists annually for exhibitions\, performances\, and events\, fostering experimental work and building community. For this project\, Byrne\, Clegg\, and Narula have been commissioned to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the gallery. In response\, they've curated six artists to create new work for the pillars over three cycles:\nPhase 1 (September 12 - December 12) artists: Amelia Burns (Cranbrook MFA '23) and Erin McKenna (MFA '20)Phase 2 (January 12 - April 12) artists: Sally Clegg (MFA '20) and Kim Karlsrud (MFA '20)Phase 3 (May 12 - August 12) artists: Abhishek Narula (MFA '20) and Nathan Byrne (MFA '21)\nPhase 1 Curatorial Statement\nCurated by Sometimes Space: Amelia Burns (entry pillar)Curated by CYNK Studios: Erin McKenna (courtyard pillar)\nArtists Amelia Burns and Erin McKenna reimagine the Division Street pillars through digital collages rooted in memory\, landscape and shared environments. Burns arranges fragments of her own photographs into airy compositions where these pictorial remnants become enshrined by the artist’s vision of the sacred. McKenna draws from the language of quilting\, organizing her photos of mushrooms\, moss and lichen into vibrant geometric patterns which echo Ohio textile traditions. Both artists\, Midwestern women attentive to the nuances of place\, weave personal imagery into collective meaning. Together\, their works create spaces of reverence and connection.\nAmelia Burns: GODSPROMISESRISINGHIGHGODSPROMISESRISINGHIGH contains fragments of photographs I have made over years in various locations in the United States. Each fragment holds personal meaning for me. The exalted pieces of environments float together and create a visual smorgasbord of symbols\, denoting a capitalist world\, filled with tender moments and connections\, where all objects are made holy.\nErin McKenna: Mushroom TrailMushroom Trail reimagines the Ohio Star quilt block through a collage of photographs of mushrooms\, lichen\, and moss gathered during walks in my Appalachian forest home. I created small blocks of repeating patterns to build texture and color. Inspired by the Barn Quilt Trail\, the work honors Ohio’s yard art traditions. Like other local expressions\, from chainsaw-carved bears to the front porch goose\, it fosters a shared sense of pride of place\, and community.\nArtist Statements/Bios\nAmelia BurnsThrough my travels across nearly every U.S. state\, I document not only the natural world but also its entanglement with human influence. My work speaks to the loneliness\, humor\, beauty\, pain\, and joy that coexist within these spaces. The landscapes I create—whether photographic or collage-based—are imbued with a visceral connection to the physical environments I’ve passed through. They are a reprocessing of the cultural detritus that surrounds me\, transforming fragments into vignettes that explore both the darkness and resilience of humanity.\nAt its core\, my work explores the underworld of human experience\, grappling with the visceral tension between authenticity and artifice in contemporary Americana. It reflects the disgusting horror of capitalism\, the mysticism of my Irish Catholic upbringing\, and the profound solitude that fuels my process. The resulting images are landscapes of seeking\, filled with the pain\, glory\, and quiet resistance of life.\nAmelia Burns is a photographer\, collage artist\, curator and educator exploring the cultural and physical landscapes of the U.S.\, capturing the nuances of shared environments. She earned her BFA in Photography from Pratt Institute in 2005 and later completed her MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art in 2023. Website / Instagram\nErin McKenna Erin McKenna is an interdisciplinary artist with a background in sculpture. Her practice embraces humor\, playful misuse\, and celebration as strategies to dismantle stereotypes and complicate binaries of construction and embellishment. With a feminist lens\, she explores the space where necessity meets excess\, highlighting the subversive potential of both. Her sculptures often pair gritty building materials with tactile fabrics\, generating tension between utility and ornament. Growing up in a perpetually unfinished home—a place of sawdust\, chop saws\, and improvisation—instilled in her a respect for visible labor\, inventive problem-solving\, and imperfection. Her process follows personal rules:\nno hierarchy of materialssubvert expected usecomplicate binaries\, stereotypes and associationsmisuse\, misapplyallow for variable arrangementsrepeat\, reiterate\, reuseconsider the subversive possibilities of the excessive\, fantastic\, and necessaryalways let the labor be visible\nMcKenna earned her BFA from Columbus College of Art &amp\; Design in 2012 and later completed her MFA at Stamps School of Art &amp\; Design at the University of Michigan. She recently moved back to the forest she calls home in Southeastern Ohio\, where she serves as Exhibitions Director at The Dairy Barn Arts Center\, hunts for mushrooms with her toddler\, and makes quilts.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EIHS Workshop: Global Indigeneity
DESCRIPTION:The Global Indigeneity workshop takes its cue from David Chang’s work which challenges a narrative of discovery through accounts of how non-European generated their own global geographies. Indigenous studies generally emphasize a need to understand indigeneity and\, indigenous peoples from their own perspectives. However\, this approach tends to limit indigenous worlds to themselves\, overlooking how indigenous peoples looked outward to establish their own understandings of the world and other peoples. Join our Eisenberg presenters as they grapple with the epistemic traditions of indigenous peoples to “understand the world from their perspective.”\n\nThis event presented by the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible in part by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Museums at Noon presentation
DESCRIPTION:Comics\, in France\, are serious business. 1 in 4 books sold today is in the form of a comic book\, and ever since 1974\, the country has hosted one of the world’s largest international comics festivals. Having long recognized the medium as the “9th art”\, France prides itself in being one of the rare countries that has championed the potential of the medium early on\, and it’s not an overstatement to say that some of its comics authors and artists are considered national heroes. \n\nIn this presentation\, I will share the findings from my time spent in France researching an important cultural recognition of the medium: its museification. This talk will highlight my experience in comics museums in Angoulême and Blois. By paying close attention to the exhibition choices of these institutions\, I will question our understanding of what a museum space “should” be\, what it is\, and what potential it holds for the future.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Spiderweb Capitalism: How Global Elites Exploit Frontier Markets
DESCRIPTION:In 2015\, the anonymous leak of the Panama Papers brought to light millions of financial and legal documents exposing how the superrich hide their money using complex webs of offshore vehicles. Spiderweb Capitalism takes you inside this shadow economy\, uncovering the mechanics behind the invisible\, mundane networks of lawyers\, accountants\, company secretaries\, and fixers who facilitate the illicit movement of wealth across borders and around the globe. Kimberly Kay Hoang traveled more than 350\,000 miles and conducted hundreds of in-depth interviews with private wealth managers\, fund managers\, entrepreneurs\, C-suite executives\, bankers\, auditors\, and other financial professionals. She traces the flow of capital from offshore funds in places like the Cayman Islands\, Samoa\, and Panama to special-purpose vehicles and holding companies in Singapore and Hong Kong\, and how it finds its way into risky markets onshore in Vietnam and Myanmar. Hoang reveals the strategies behind spiderweb capitalism and examines the moral dilemmas of making money in legal\, financial\, and political gray zones. Spiderweb Capitalism sheds critical light on how global elites capitalize on risky frontier markets\, and deepens our understanding of the paradoxical ways in which global economic growth is sustained through states where the line separating the legal from the corrupt is not always clear.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Friend or Foe? Delegating to an AI whose Alignment is Unknown (with Drew Fudenberg)
DESCRIPTION:AI systems have the potential to improve decision-making\, but decision makers face the risk that the AI may be misaligned with their objectives\, which can lead them to restrict the information that the AI can use. We study the resulting \"covariate-design'' problem in the context of a treatment decision\, where a designer decides which patient attributes to reveal to an AI before receiving a prediction of the patient's need for treatment. Providing the AI with more information  increases the benefits of an aligned AI but also amplifies the harm from a misaligned one. We characterize how the designer should select attributes to balance these competing forces\, depending on their beliefs about the AI's reliability. We show that the designer should optimally disclose attributes that identify rare segments of the population in which the need for treatment is high\, and pool the remaining patients.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:HET Seminar | Connecting the Calabi-Yau landscape and physics using the geometry of elliptic fibrations
DESCRIPTION:Calabi-Yau manifolds have been used for over 30 years as a primary way of compactifying string theory to give semi-realistic models of physics in four dimensions.  This talk describes recent progress in using the geometry of elliptic fibrations through the approach known as F-theory to better understand the physics of a broad class of nonperturbative string compactifications\, to identify ways in which the Standard Model of particle physics arises naturally in this context\, and to shed light on the structure of the largest known set of Calabi-Yau manifolds.  In particular\, the talk will describe a recent complete analysis the full set of 470 million toric hypersurface Calabi-Yau threefolds\, of which over 99.99% have an elliptic or genus one fiber structure.  This approach also helps understand the way in which all of these Calabi-Yaus are connected\, and provides strong evidence that the set of such manifolds is finite.  This talk describes recent work with Shing Yan Li and with Fatima Abbasi and Richard Nally\, and upcoming work with Lara Anderson\, James Gray\, and Richard Nally.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Emily Zakem
DESCRIPTION:Microorganisms mediate the biogeochemical cycles of the Earth system and the atmospheric fluxes of greenhouse gases. However\, historically\, microorganisms have been crudely represented in Earth system models in ways that have limited our understanding of global-scale microbial impacts and potential feedbacks to global change. As our understanding of microbial communities expands\, how can their activity be more mechanistically represented at large scales? I will discuss new insights into nitrogen and carbon cycling in the ocean gained from describing microbial activity simply yet dynamically in marine ecosystem models\, harnessing physical and chemical constraints to microbial growth. The broadly applicable strategy allows the presence or absence of microbial “metabolic functional types” to emerge from ecological interactions\, providing more fundamental explanations for observed biogeochemical patterns and paving the way for improved prognostic capabilities.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Linguistics Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:Laura Gwilliams received her BA in Linguistics from Cardiff University (UK) and a Master's degree in Cognitive Neuroscience of Language from the BCBL (Basque Country\, Spain). Laura then joined NYU\, first as a research assistant\, and then as a PhD student\, working with David Poeppel\, Alec Marantz and Liina Pylkkanen. There she used magnetoencephalography (MEG) to study the neural computations underlying dynamic speech understanding. Laura's dissertation `Towards a mechanistic account of speech comprehension' aims to combine insight from theoretical linguistics\, neuroscience and machine-learning\, and has received recognition from Meta\, the William Orr Dingwall Foundation\, the Martin Braine Fellowship\, the Society for Neuroscience\, and the Society for the Neurobiology of Language. As a post-doctoral scholar with Eddie Chang\, Laura added intracranial EEG and single-unit recordings to her repertoire of techniques. She used her time in the Chang Lab to understand how laminar single neuronal spiking encodes speech properties in humans. Now as the director of the Gwilliams Laboratory of Speech Neuroscience (the GLySN Lab) at Stanford University\, her group aims to understand the neural representations and computations that give rise to successful speech comprehension\, using a range of recording methodologies\, and analytical techniques.\n\nDr. Gwilliams will be joining us via Zoom.\n\nTitle: Computational architecture of human speech comprehension\n\nAbstract: \nHumans understand speech with such speed and accuracy\, it belies the complexity of transforming sound into meaning. The goal of my research is to develop a theoretically grounded\, biologically constrained and computationally explicit account of how the human brain achieves this feat. In my talk\, I will present a series of studies that examine neural responses at different spatial scales: From population ensembles using magnetoencephalography and electrocorticography\, to the encoding of speech properties in individual neurons across the cortical depth using Neuropixels probes in humans. The results provide insight into (i) what auditory and linguistic representations serve to bridge between sound and meaning\; (ii) what operations reconcile auditory input speed with neural processing time\; (iii) how information at different timescales is nested\, in time and in space\, to allow information exchange across hierarchical structures. My work showcases the utility of combining cognitive science\, machine-learning and neuroscience for developing neurally-constrained computational models of spoken language understanding.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:NERS Colloquium: Radiation Effects on Quantum Dots
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nThis presentation discusses the radiation effects on nanostructures (quantum dots) after exposure to ionizing radiation by observing changes in luminescence. The goal of our research is to evaluate quantum dots in solution for radiation hardness\, specifically total ionizing dose (TID). Various compositions of commercially available quantum dots are examined\, and a high activity 137Cs source is used to induce ionization damage in quantum dot samples. Laser-induced photoluminescence spectroscopy\, and Xe bulb-induced fluorescence spectroscopy are used to measure quantum dot luminescence. We observe significant changes to the luminescence of irradiated quantum dots and find that changes are based on quantum dot composition. We performed TID up to 100 kR. We explore Graphene\, Perovskite\, and CdTe quantum dots in our study\, with fluorescence spectroscopy as the most reliable measurement technique. \n\nBio: \nEdward Cazalas\, Ph.D.\, Nuclear Engineering Program at University of Utah. Prof. Cazalas earned his Ph.D. from Penn State in Nuclear Engineering. He since worked at RAND Corporation and the U.S. Air Force Institute of Technology. His research is in the areas of radiation detection\, dosimetry\, and radiation effects on electronics and materials. He has been at the University of Utah since 2018 and has served as faculty advisor to its ANS chapter since 2020. \n\nThe NERS Colloquia Series invites leading researchers\, industry experts\, and thought leaders from across the nuclear engineering and radiological sciences community to share their insights with students\, faculty\, and guests. Covering a wide range of topics—from cutting-edge research and emerging technologies to policy\, education\, and professional development—the weekly talks offer an opportunity to explore current issues and innovations shaping the future of the field.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Topology seminar: Real Heegaard Floer Homology
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: In recent years\, there has been a flurry of interest in gauge theoretic invariants of manifolds equipped with an involution\; in particular\, such invariants have been used to detect exotic RP^2-knots (Miyazawa) and to settle the non-sliceness of cables of the Figure 8 knot (Kang-Park-Taniguchi). For 3-manifolds with an involution\, there is a Heegaard Floer analogue of these invariants\, developed in joint work with C. Manolescu. However\, to develop the 4-dimensional aspects of the theory\, it is necessary to first show the real Heegaard Floer homology groups are natural. In the talk\, I will review the construction of our invariants\, and discuss a sketch of the proof of naturality\, highlighting the subtleties that arise in the equivariant setting. This is joint work in progress with Manolescu.

SUMMARY:Performance:Brett Dennen
DESCRIPTION:New music!\n\nAcross his career\, Brett Dennen has established himself as the kind of singer-songwriter who finds inspiration by digging into the nooks and crannies of the human condition—exploring pain\, joy\, sadness\, and all points in between. If It Takes Forever (Mick Music)\, the California native’s eighth solo album and first full-length since 2021’s See the World\, is no exception. The warm\, immersive collection boasts deeply felt sentiments\, underpinned by rich acoustic guitars and Dennen’s earnest vocals\, in the vein of dusky Americana (“Golden State of Mind”)\, harmonica-driven blues (the Tom Petty-esque “Careful What You Wish For”)\, rootsy indie (“Don’t Go Talking”)\, and meditative folk-rock (highlight “Time To Wake Up”).\n\nSince debuting in 2004 with a self-titled album\, Dennen has amassed a loyal fanbase thanks to a steady touring schedule\, including alongside artists like John Mayer\, Jason Mraz and G Love and Special Sauce\, as well as multiple song placements in the TV show Parenthood. Another tune\, \"Comeback Kid (That's My Dog)\,\" became the theme song for the TV adaptation About A Boy. Along the way\, Dennen has also had multiple top 10 hits on the AAA radio charts\, with the keening title track of See the World\, an encouraging song about growing up and forging your own path in life\, landing at No. 4 in 2021. \n\nWith If It Takes Forever\, Dennen plans to hit the road once again\, but he possesses additional perspective on—and gratitude for—the solace provided by art and music. “To really boil it down\, this is life\,” he says. “Life is full of things that get complicated and make you busy\, and are really hard to deal with. But if you write songs about it\, and put it into art\, then it makes it a lot more relevant and meaningful and worthy of celebration.”

SUMMARY:Performance:Symphony Band
DESCRIPTION:The bending of space\, time and our perception of reality through emotion is the inspiration for this collection of contemporary music. Although Charles Ives wrote his quirky \"Country Band\" March more than a century ago\, he was a composer way ahead of his time. David Biedenbender's evocative piece for saxophone quartet and band challenges the imagination with a story of puppets becoming unmoored to their strings. And Michigan faculty member Patrick Harlin imagines a furious trip through the ages and their iconic musical worlds in his brand new piece \"The Time Traveler\,\" which was co-commissioned by the University of Michigan Symphony Band through the support of the H. Robert Reynolds Commissioning Fund. \n\nJason Fettig\, conductor\nDaJuan Brooks\, student conductor\nCerus Quartet\, guest saxophone soloists\n\nPROGRAM\n\"Country Band\" March\, Charles Ives/ trans. Sinclair\n*Severance*\, David Biedenbender        \n*Lament*\, Chang Su-Koh\n*The Time Traveler*\, Patrick Harlin
