SUMMARY:Exhibition:Removed
DESCRIPTION:Removed (2016) explores processes of progressive translation\, abstraction and distortion. Musical improvisation is captured as choreographic experience\, then encoded into digital animation and 3D-printed sculptural forms. The performances are transformed by their conversion into visual media: sound is removed\, movement is abstracted from human anatomy into non-representational geometry\, and time is rendered as space. Removed creates a dialogue between the intuitive and the formalized\, and invites questions about the nature of translation and the absences it conceals.\n\nJoin us for an exhibit reception on Tuesday\, September 13th.\n\nChristopher Burns is a composer\, improviser\, and multimedia artist whose works explore collage\, layering\, and the use of generative algorithms to form and develop both musical and visual elements. His work creates a dialogue between complexity and clarity\, incorporating densely braided\, rapidly shifting materials alongside gradually evolving\, linearly directed textures. He is currently scholar-in-residence at the Digital Media Commons.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Commutative Algebra
DESCRIPTION:The F-signature of a local ring\, a numerical invariant shown to always exist by Tucker\, is the asymptotic measurement of the number of Frobenius splittings for which a local ring of prime characteristic admits. The F-signature serves as a measurement of singularities. Most notably\, the F-signature of a local ring is 1 if and only if the ring is regular\, by work of Huneke and Leuschke\, and the F-signature of a local ring is positive if and only if the ring is strongly F-regular\, by work of Aberbach and Leuschke. I will discuss how the notion and existence of F-signature extends to all rings which are F-finite but not necessarily local. Our methods our made meaningful by extending Huneke's and Leuschke's and Aberbach's and Leuschke's theorems to the non-local case.   This is based on joint work with Alessandro De Stefani and Yongwei Yao. Speaker(s): Thomas Polstra (University of Missouri)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EIHS Lecture: \"Everyday Ethics in Colonial India: Akhlaq Literature\, Urdu Print Culture\, and the Diversity of Muslim Thought\"
DESCRIPTION:In the late-19th and early 20th centuries\, a range of Urdu texts were published in India within the genre of akhlaq (ethics). All were texts about ethics\, but they varied immensely in both style and content. This talk examines Urdu akhlaq literature\, with a focus on how this genre helps us elaborate a history of Muslim South Asia. While there is a robust body of work on Muslim history in South Asia\, much of it has focused on elite figures\, canonical texts\, institutional formations—religious and political. Urdu akhlaq literature provides an opportunity to consider more popular forms of religious and social discourse and their impact on our understanding of Muslim and South Asian history.\n\nFarina Mir is a historian of colonial and postcolonial South Asia\, with a particular interest in the social\, cultural\, and religious history of late-colonial north India. Her first book\, The Social Space of Language: Vernacular Culture in British Colonial Punjab (University of California Press\, 2010)\, is a study of the Punjabi language and print culture under colonialism (from 1849-1947)\, with a particular focus on qisse\, or epic stories/romances. The book was awarded the 2011 John F. Richard Prize in South Asian History from the American Historical Association and the 2012 Bernard Cohn Prize from the Association of Asian Studies. Mir’s current research focuses on the history of Islam and Muslims in colonial India. She is working on a book project\, tentatively titled\, “Producing Modern Muslims: Everyday Ethics in Late Colonial North India.” The project aims to broaden our understanding of Muslim thought in late-colonial India\, focusing on the role of popular ethics in constituting modern Muslim subjectivity and history.\n\nMir is associate professor of history and director of the Center for South Asian Studies at the University of Michigan. She also serves on the Council of the American Historical Association and as vice-president of the American Institute of Pakistan Studies.\n\nFree and open to the public.\n\nThis event is part of the Thursday Series of the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

SUMMARY:Other:Honors Conversion Workshops
DESCRIPTION:Honors courses are offered in a wide variety of disciplines to allow you as much flexibility as possible in choosing courses that meet your interests and academic goals. We realize\, however\, that in a college with thousands of courses offered each term\, there is no way we can offer an Honors component for every course that Honors students are interested in taking. Attend ONE conversion workshop (or make an advising appointment) for details and access to the conversion paperwork required. (This is necessary\, even if you have completed Honors course conversions in the past).
