SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EIHS Workshop: Ritual\, Law\, and Death in the Atlantic World
DESCRIPTION:In the United States\, recent months have seen widespread protests and debates over the presence of monuments to Confederate leaders and to other historical agents of slavery\, colonialism\, and racial exclusion. In The Reaper’s Garden\, Vincent Brown presents such disputes over the public commemoration of the slaveholding past within the frame of “mortuary politics\,” in which the rituals\, practices\, and remembrance of death both uphold and challenge the social order. This panel seeks to generate a conversation between graduate students and Brown’s work\, focusing on the role of death in (1) structures of authority\, (2) popular political action\, and (3) community formation and disruption. Drawing on a variety of different local contexts\, from the nineteenth-century Caribbean to contemporary Africa and Latin America\, the panelists will incorporate evidence from their own research in order to respond to central questions about the generative power and the long afterlife of death in the Atlantic world.\n\nPanelists:\nJamie Andreson\, PhD Candidate\, Anthropology and History\, University of Michigan\nChristine Chalifoux\, PhD Student\, Anthropology\, University of Michigan\nAna Maria Silva\, PhD Candidate\, History\, University of Michigan\nAndrew Walker\, PhD Candidate\, History\, University of Michigan\nWilliam Calvo-Quirós (chair)\, Assistant Professor\, American Culture\, University of Michigan\nVincent Brown (respondent)\, Charles Warren Professor of American History\; Professor\, African and African-American Studies\; Harvard University\n\nFree and open to the public. Lunch provided. \n\nThis event is part of the Friday Series of the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IOE 836 Seminar Series: Blake McGowan\, MS\, CPE
DESCRIPTION:Blake McGowan\, MS\, CPE\, Humantech\n\nTitle: \"Communicating the Value of Ergonomics to Business Stakeholders\"\n\nBio: Blake McGowan\, Managing Consultant and Ergonomics Engineer for Humantech\, oversees large-scale ergonomics initiatives in the pharmaceutical\, oil and gas\, food and beverage\, and manufacturing industries and helps organizations build internal ergonomics expertise using software solutions. His clients include Coca-Cola\, Dow Chemical\, General Electric\, John Deere\, Micron Technologies\, Procter and Gamble\, Tesoro\, and Tyson Foods. He helps lead the Ergonomics Research group to incorporate the latest technical and scientific data into Humantech’s software solutions. He also consults with academia to transfer the latest research knowledge into the Humantech approach\, systems\, assessment methods\, and guidelines.\nBlake received a Bachelor of Science degree in Kinesiology and a Master of Science degree in Biomechanics from the University of Waterloo in Waterloo\, Ontario. Blake has achieved recognition as a Certified Professional Ergonomist (CPE)\, and is a member of the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH)\, the American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA)\, and Human Factors and Ergonomics Society (HFES). He is a past officer of the AIHA Ergonomics Committee.\n\nAbstract: Traditionally\, dependent stakeholders (i.e.\, Safety and Human Resources) appreciate the value of ergonomics. They understand that good ergonomics improves employee well-being. This includes reductions in causal absenteeism\, first aid cases\, modified duty cases\, recordable injuries\, lost-time cases\, worker’s compensation claim costs\, among others.  However\, dominant stakeholders (i.e.\, Plant Leadership\, Quality\, Operations\, Manufacturing\, Board of Directors\, and Investors) generally have a limited awareness or understanding of the value of ergonomics. As a result\, it is often overlooked and underexploited. During this presentation\, participants will learn how to best convey the value of ergonomics to business stakeholders.  This includes how to engage and communicate with business stakeholders\, and how to educate them on the value of ergonomics on business performance.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Special Cosmology Seminar | Integrated Approach to Cosmology
DESCRIPTION:Recent progress in observational cosmology and the establishment of ΛCDM have relied on the combination of different cosmological probes. These probes are not independent\, since they all measure the same physical fields. The resulting cross-correlations allow for a robust test of the cosmological model through the consistency of different physical tracers and for the identification of systematics. Integrated analyses taking into account both the auto- as well as the cross-correlations between cosmological probes therefore present a promising analysis method for both current as well as future data.\n\nIn this talk\, I will present an integrated analysis of CMB temperature anisotropies\, CMB lensing\, galaxy clustering and weak lensing as well as background probes. I will describe the cosmological probe combination framework\, the obtained results and illustrate how this analysis has provided a confirmation of ΛCDM through the consistency of different probes. Furthermore\, I will discuss possible tensions between the derived constraints on cosmological parameters and existing ones.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach Out Series- Hurricanes: What's Next?
DESCRIPTION:The 2017 Atlantic Hurricane season has produced incredibly destructive storms\, and has raised many questions. What drives a hurricane? How accurate are hurricane models? How do authorities prepare for hurricanes and\, when destructive events like Hurricanes Harvey and Irma happen\, how do we respond? Is this hurricane season a fluke\, or should we start planning for more/similar storms? In this Teach-Out\, we will explore the science of hurricanes\, hurricane forecasting and monitoring\, and with what confidence can we attribute these storms to a warming ocean.\n\nTeach-Outs are short learning experiences\, each focused on a specific current issue. Attendees will come together over a few days not only to learn about a subject or event but also to gain skills. Teach-Outs are open to the world and are designed to bring together individuals with wide-ranging perspectives in respectful and deep conversation. These events are an opportunity for diverse learners and a multitude of experts to come together to ask questions of one another and explore new solutions to the pressing concerns of our global community. Come\, join the conversation!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Unfinished Conversation: Encoding/Decoding
DESCRIPTION:On view from September 8-October 14\, 2017 in the Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.\, Ann Arbor)\, The Unfinished Conversation: Encoding/Decoding is a group exhibition including image and video work by Terry Adkins\, John Akomfrah\, Shelagh Keeley\, and Zineb Sedira. There will be an exhibition reception on Friday\, September 8 from 6-8 pm. The exhibition and reception are free and open to the public.\n\nCo-curated by Gaëtane Verna\, Director of The Power Plant\, and Mark Sealy\, The Unfinished Conversation is grounded in the work of cultural theorist Stuart Hall (1932-2014)\, who devoted his life to studying the interweaving threads of culture\, power\, politics\, and history. \n\nTaking Hall’s essay Encoding and Decoding in the Television Discourse as a point of departure\, viewers will be invited to think about how meaning is constructed\; how it is systematically distorted by audience reception\; and how it can be detached and drained of its original intent to produce specific or slanted narratives. Hall’s interdisciplinary approach drew on literary theory\, linguistics\, and cultural anthropology in order to analyse and articulate the relationship between history\, culture\, popular media\, cold war politics\, gender\, and ethnicity.\n\nBy presenting the work of artists who bring into play time\, memory\, and archives so as to construct new readings of the past\, the exhibition will lay emphasis on the idea that the “visual” is an assimilatory process continuously at work in the construction of cultural\, political\, personal\, and national identities.\n\nCo-curators Gaëtane Verna and Mark Sealy state that it is their curatorial intention to build a multiple moving/still/audio archive\, an image map\, a visual vehicle that will ferry the audience across the choppy waters of memory\, images\, and politics to an undeterminable\, obscure\, and un-chartable destination\, where people often meet with a fatal end. The exhibition aims to take viewers on a journey in time\, to bring them to encounter images\, which act as both objects of art and ideas in flux\, circulating in and out of the archive through the corridors of cultural re-construction.\n\nThis image map will be drawn by the work of Terry Adkins\, John Akomfrah\, Shelagh Keeley and Zineb Sedira\, four artists whose practice is devoted primarily to commenting on recent socio-political events and situations and relating them to the not so distant past in order to help us understand the world we live in.\n\nBy stimulating our personal and collective memory\, these works will show us how history agitates and causes anxiety in our personal lives and in the political realm as they will reveal the fact that national identity is not an essence or a state of being\, but a “becoming\,” a process whereby subjectivities are formed in the interstices between such binary oppositions as us/them\, black/white\, or native/foreigner\, and that it is in those in-between spaces that marginalized people are the agents and subjects of many possible futures\, imagined or real.\n\nThe thread that connects all these art works is the artist’s involvement with the significant social issues confronting humanity today and their profound desire to push formal boundaries in order to tackle them.\n\nThe Unfinished Conversation: Encoding/Decoding is organized and circulated by The Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery\, Toronto in partnership with Autograph ABP\, London. The exhibition is co-curated by Gaëtane Verna\, Director\, The Power Plant and Mark Sealy\, Director\, Autograph ABP.\n\nPhoto by Toni Hafkenscheid.
