SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:EIHS Symposium: Radical Futures Through Indigenous Political Thought
DESCRIPTION:Format: This is a virtual event that will take place via Zoom webinar. Open to the general public. Please register here: https://myumi.ch/9P6Xd\n\nDescription: Who gets to have futures? Who gets to imagine futures? Indigenous political activists and Indigenous studies scholars have turned these questions on their head. Indigenous peoples have too often been framed through the past. What would it mean to recognize their centrality to visions of futurity? Nowhere\, perhaps\, is this question more urgent than in the face of climate change and ecological disaster. Indigenous communities’ perspectives on sustainability offer critical methods and insights for thinking about our collective futures. This panel explores the contributions of Indigenous knowledge\, Indigenous sciences\, and Indigenous political thought to the making of just futures for Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples alike.\n\nPanelists:\n• Rebecca D. Hardin (Associate Professor\, School of Environment and Sustainability\, University of Michigan)\n• Ana María León (Assistant Professor\, History of Art\, University of Michigan)\n• David Myer Temin (Assistant Professor\, Political Science\,  University of Michigan)\n• Kyle Whyte (George Willis Pack Professor of Environment and Sustainability\, University of Michigan)\n• Mrinalini Sinha (moderator\; Alice Freeman Palmer Professor of History\, University of Michigan)\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.\n\nImage credit: Screen grab from Biidaaban: First Light (image from Media Kit\; \"Rooted in the realm of Indigenous futurism\, Biidaaban: First Light is an interactive VR time-jump into a highly realistic—and radically different—Toronto of tomorrow.\").

Drawing on their diverse experiences as ethnographers\, curators and archivists\, panelists will discuss ethical considerations of “return\,” and strategies for providing reconnection and Indigenous control and access to cultural materials. The conversation will highlight questions of ownership of and access to musical heritage\, and issues involving memory\, identity\, history\, power\, agency\, research\, scholarship\, preservation\, performance\, distribution\, legitimacy\, commodification\, curation\, decoloniality\, and sustainability.\n\nDr. Robin R.R.

Prior to joining our faculty\, Dr. Gray held a 2-year University of California President’s Postdoctoral Fellowship in the History Department at the University of California Santa Cruz. Her research centers primarily on the politics of Indigeneity in settler colonial contexts such as Canada\, USA\, New Zealand and Australia.

He is a sound curator\, ethnomusicologist\, and artist. At the core of his creative practice\, he is committed to developing new and ethical ways to exhibit sound. His installations have been presented across South Africa\, Europe\, and the U.S. in spaces ranging from art galleries and festivals to rainforests\, in schools and on the streets. In addition to his careers as a curator and academic\, he also has worked as a DJ\, in radio\, and in the music industry for twenty years.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Noncoding RNA structure and recognition in stress response and immunity
DESCRIPTION:The goal of our research is to gain a detailed structural and mechanistic understanding of cellular and viral noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs). Our recent work has focused on investigating how two archetypes of ncRNAs — the tRNA and the double-stranded RNA (dsRNA)\, as well as RNAs that mimic them\,  mediate cellular responses to stress\, regulate HIV-1 replication\, and modulate host innate immunity.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Beyond Privacy: Fairness in How Personal Data is Used in Our New Digital World
DESCRIPTION:Starting from revealing the reason why January 28 is celebrated as “Data Privacy” Day\, this talk will explain why there is a difference between “data protection” and “privacy”\, which are two different rights recognized as such at constitutional level in Europe and a couple of jurisdictions in Latin America - most recently in Brazil\, and manifesting distinctively elsewhere even when not expressly recognized by law as being two different rights. It is essential to understand this difference\, because it has consequences in the age of automated decision-making and algorithms that impact people and their communities. Looking at several real-life cases from the past three years adjudicated in Europe and all involving a form of automated decision-making underpinned by processing of personal data\, this talk will underline how the essential elements of data protection law - including fairness\, transparency\, individual control over personal data - are shaping up the safeguarding of individual rights in the new digital world. The presentation will end with a look towards several large jurisdictions which are adopting data protection specific laws\, everywhere around the world\, from California\, to Brazil\, China\, Kenya and India.\n\nDr. Florian Schaub\, Assistant Professor of Information\, School of Information and Assistant Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science\, College of Engineering\, will be facilitating Q&A time after the keynote presentation.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Technology's Law of Amplification and What It Means for Organizations Kentaro Toyama
DESCRIPTION:Over the years\, the tech industry has made many promises to organizational customers -- for example\, that its products would improve efficiency\, reduce costs\, and increase scale. More recently\, the promises have extended to such things as improving teamwork and decision-making. While these promises have been realized in some contexts\, they remain largely unmet in others. Is there a way to distinguish between realism and hype in computing? Technology's \"Law of Amplification\" is a simple idea that captures digital technology's impact. This talk will reveal how it explains a broad range of past and existing organizational phenomena\, and how it suggests predictions for the future.
