SUMMARY:Exhibition:Moving Image: Portraiture
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Portraiture presents a contemporary spin on traditional notions of portraiture. In the video Towards An Architect\, Hannu Karjalainen portrays a fictional architect who is experiencing the response of people living in the structures he designed. Daniel Rozin’s Mirror No. 10 is driven by software\, written by the artist\, that generates a real-time reflection of the environment the screen is displayed in—specifically a live sketch of the viewer approaching the frame. Mesocosm (Northumberland\, UK) is an algorithmic work by Marina Zurkow that depicts the passage of time on the moors of Northeast England.\n\nMoving Image: Portraiture is the third of three exhibitions drawn from the collection of the Borusan Contemporary\, Istanbul\, which since 2011 has been focused on media arts. The works in this series address both formal concerns and conceptual topics\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\n\nLead support for Moving Image: Portraiture is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa
DESCRIPTION:Before colonization\, complex hierarchical societies flourished in Central and West Africa. At their summits were a select few—kings and chiefs whose authority was derived from their direct connection to powerful ancestors and predecessors. These rulers were wrapped in expensive textiles or costly furs\, and covered in beads and precious metals\, materials that not only signaled their extraordinary status\, but were also intended to safely contain the great power they wielded. The famous minkisi (meaning “power figure”) sculptures of Central Africa were similarly activated through the addition of charged materials. Textiles\, animal skin\, metal\, and beads allowed the lifeless wooden carvings to be activated by local spiritual leaders in order to communicate with the realm of the ancestors and spirits. This exhibition explores the parallels between the adornment of the king’s physical body and minkisi. Drawing on works from UMMA’s collection and several loans\, the exhibition demonstrates how authority was expressed and power contained across a range of historical cultures in Nigeria\, Ghana\, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Cameroon.\n\nLead support for Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors—Part II: Abstraction
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. \n\nThis two-part exhibition presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. Part II: Abstraction\, on view in the A. Alfred Taubman Gallery July 1 through October 29\, showcases modern and contemporary art by Pablo Picasso\, Alberto Giacometti\,\nLouise Nevelson\, Christo\, Lorna Simpson\, José Parlá\, and Do Ho Su\, among others. It also features a fifth-century Korean roof end tile and an Amish quilt\, as well as a work by an Inuit master—thus inviting visitors to explore the pleasures of abstraction across a wide range of media\, eras\, and genres. UMMA extends Part II: Abstraction into the Irving Stenn\, Jr. Family Gallery from August 19 through November 26\, 2017\, with the site-specific installation of Random International’s LED-light and motion-sensing dynamic sculpture\, Swarm Study / II. Victors for Art offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Careers in Patents Workshop
DESCRIPTION:If you have (or will soon have) a degree in engineering\, computer sciences\, or the hard sciences (chemistry\, biology\, physics and related disciplines)\, you can take the Patent Office’s Registration Exam to become a Patent Agent. Patent Agents can make up to $20\,000 a year more than similarly situated engineers and scientists. The Exam is available virtually on-demand via computer. Becoming a patent agent can also be a step toward the even more lucrative career of becoming a Patent Attorney.\n\nIf this sounds intriguing\, come join Practising Law Institute (PLI) for a presentation by Mark Dighton\, PLI's Director of Law School Relations and a Director of their Patent Office Exam Course. \n\nTopics for discussion include:\n· Careers for patent agents (what the work is like and where you find it)\,\n· The qualities and skills that will make you happy and successful in this field (e.g.\, communication skills)\, and\n· The latest info on the Patent Office’s Registration Exam (who can take it\, how it works\, and recommendations on how to study for this very difficult Exam).\n\nDate: Tuesday\, October 17th\nTime: 3:30 pm\nLocation: 265 Chrysler Center\n\nPlease visit us on the Web for a wealth of information on the resources we offer:\nwww.PatentOfficeExamCourse.com \nwww.pli.edu\n\nPlease register through the Events section of Engineering Careers if planning to attend: https://engineering-umich-csm.symplicity.com/

SUMMARY:Other:Using Interfacial Science Coupled with Statistical Design for Product Development:  Agrochemical Drift Control & Antimicrobial Gas Release\n
DESCRIPTION:Understanding the role of interfacial science is critical in many application spaces to deliver products with improved performance.  Two case studies involving interfacial science coupled with statistically designed experimental plans will be discussed.  The first relates to agricultural spray solutions that address off-target spray due to reduction of small droplet formation.  The proposed mechanism of sheet break-up is dependent on interfacial properties of the spray solution and the relationships between measured properties and the amount droplets with higher drift potential (d < 150 µm) will be discussed.  The second case study consists of a reaction that occurs at or near the interface of two polymeric substrates to release the anti-microbial gas ClO2.  Methods of quantifying gas release\, controlling the kinetics of release\, and efficacy of the gas at reducing the growth of mold (botrytis cinerea) on strawberry fruit will be discussed.\nAdam Grzesiak (Dow Chemical)

SUMMARY:Other:Douglas Trevor's \"The Book of Wonders\"
DESCRIPTION:Praise for “The Book of Wonders”\n\n \n\n“The stories in this masterly collection are peopled with characters who are made to confront their frustrated ambitions\, their existential misgivings\, and their physical and moral shortcomings in deftly controlled narratives which are\, by turns\, darkly humorous\, teasingly satirical and wickedly erudite. Extraordinary in their range of subject matter\, from riffs on Greek mythology to bang up to the minute dystopias\, these stories leave the reader with much to ponder and admire.”\n\nColm Tóibín\, author of House of Names\n\n \n\n \n\n“The Book of Wonders is aptly titled. These are richly inventive and deftly executed stories that brim with life—unpredictable\, lyric\, energetic\, ‘storytelling’ at its finest. Doug Trevor is intrigued by the vicissitudes of ‘character’ and his stories touch upon moral\, intellectual\, spiritual issues that engage us all.”\n\nJoyce Carol Oates
