SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture - Dr. Courtney Sprain\, University of Florida
DESCRIPTION:Since the Cambrian explosion roughly 541 million years ago\, the proliferation of life on Earth has been interrupted by five major mass extinctions events\, marked by the sudden loss of 50 to 96% of all species on Earth. In general\, these extinction events share many common factors: they are all geologically abrupt (occurring on timescales on the order of a few million years or less)\, they are commonly associated with major shifts in climate\, and four out of the five mass extinction events correlate in time with the eruption of large igneous provinces (LIPs). However\, to properly understand the ingredients that are necessary to cause large-scale ecosystem collapse\, and to what extent these ancient events can inform our modern ecological crises and search for habitable planets\, we have to step back from these broad generalizations and look into these extinction events in more detail. This presentation gives an overview of recent advances on this topic\, specifically focused on the Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction event\, including high-precision geochronology\, new methods for the assessment of eruptive tempo of LIPs\, and multidisciplinary approaches\, that are helping to clarify the causes and consequences of mass extinction events.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:NERS Colloquia: Applications of Nuclear Engineering in High Power Accelerators
DESCRIPTION:The concept of “smashing atoms on a target” has a long history since early 20th century. As physicists desire more nuclear reactions\, the power of the particle beam has been increasing. A prime example of a state-of-art\, high-power accelerator is the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) recently completed at Michigan State University (MSU). Open for users in 2022\, FRIB is poised to become one of world’s most powerful heavy ion accelerators. As a result of the increased beam power\, thermal and radiation damage managements of the beam-interacting components in the high-power accelerator facilities are becoming progressively challenging. On the other hand\, the nuclear reactor industry has collected vast amount of expertise in the similar technical challenges. We believe more actively introducing the nuclear engineering expertise to the high-power accelerator field would greatly help advance the development of the high-power accelerators.\n\nIn this seminar\, I will talk about a brief overview of FRIB and variety of its components and their technical challenges related to the thermal and radiation damage managements. These components include charge stripper\, charge selector\, production target\, beam dump. One of the topics that I will spend time as an example of a success story of the application of the nuclear engineering expertise is the recent development of the liquid lithium stripper. Taking advantage of the nuclear-engineering-based liquid metal technology available at Argonne National Laboratory (ANL)\, ANL and FRIB have developed the free-jet liquid lithium film. Various previous experiments demonstrated that a liquid lithium free jet is well compatible with an accelerator environment and could handle extreme thermal loading as expected. \nSubsequently FRIB built the first free-jet liquid lithium stripper to form a fast-flowing (> 50 m/s)\, very thin (~10 m)\, liquid lithium free jet in the FRIB accelerator beam line. Finally the first demonstration of the free-jet liquid lithium stripper was successfully carried out\, stably stripping variety of heavy ion beams at FRIB. To follow the success of the stripper development and lead FRIB to success\, FRIB wants more nuclear engineers who can tackle thermal and radiation damage managements in the devices that are critical to achieve the ultimate goal of 400 kW uranium beam acceleration.\n\nBio: Takuji Kanemura studied nuclear engineering at Osaka University in Japan\, and received his PhD in Engineering at Osaka University in 2010. The title of his PhD thesis was “Research on wave characteristics of liquid lithium free-surface flow”. He has been interested and involved in liquid metal applications in extreme environments\, particularly windowless high power beam targets that involve thermal-hydraulics\, fluid dynamic stability of jets\, mass transportation in vacuum\, and related technologies. \nUntil he joined the FRIB Laboratory in Michigan State University in 2016\, He was involved in R&Ds of the liquid lithium target of IFMIF in Japan (IFMIF stands for the International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility). Since he joined the FRIB Lab\, he has been in charge of the liquid lithium charge stripper and various beam-intercepting devices in the FRIB accelerator. His recent involvement in beam-intercepting devices has broadened his interest into radiation damages in materials. \n\nHe also likes running\, hiking\, camping\, reading\, watching sports\, etc. He finally started appreciating the beauty of classical music thanks to his ten-year-old son who plays the violin.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CSAS Lecture Series | How to be Heard but not Seen: On Caste Concealment in the Music Industry
DESCRIPTION:What role does caste play in the cultivation of voice? Mehbub Ali and Dev Kapur—these are pseudonyms—are cousins who work in parallel sectors of the religious music industry in Lucknow: Ali in the qawwali scene at Sufi shrines\, Kapur as a bhajan singer in Hindu festivals. As devotional musicians\, they enact a complex form of religious labor requiring technical skill\, mastery of particular aesthetic codes\, the enactment of devotion and the elicitation of affective states in listeners. Most of their audiences do not know that Ali and Kapur are also\, in a sense\, performing caste. To compete in an industry dominated by musicians from higher status groups\, the cousins have adopted titles and styles that—not always successfully—obscure their Dalit origins and imply savarna status. Part of a broader ethnographic project on caste concealment in urban north India\, this paper follows Ali and Kapur as they critically analyze the clandestine life of caste in the business and soundscape of devotional music.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Performance:The Plastic Bag Store
DESCRIPTION:This custom-built public art installation and immersive film experience uses humor\, craft\, and a critical lens to question our culture of consumption and convenience — specifically\, the enduring effects of our single-use plastics.\n\nShelves are stocked with thousands of original grocery items meticulously sculpted by hand\, all made from discarded single-use plastics organically harvested from streets and garbage dumps. Several times a day\, the store transforms into an immersive\, dynamic stage for a film in which inventive puppetry\, shadow play\, and intricate handmade sets tell the darkly comedic and sometimes tender story of how the overabundance of plastic waste we leave behind might be misinterpreted by future generations — and how what we value least may become our most lasting cultural legacy.

SUMMARY:Performance:Djangophonique // Harmonious Wail
DESCRIPTION:Djangophonique is a virtuosic\, instrumentally driven quartet led by guitar player Andrew Brown. A true disciple of the style\, Andrew has spent countless hours immersing himself in the language of Django Reinhardt’s jazz manouche\, and he’s joined on stage by bandmates that match his skill and passion for the material. The result is a sound that’s unmistakable to fans of the music\, and alluring to the uninitiated—a sound that can bring the lively energy of a Parisian dance hall to the quietest listening room or captivate a buzzing festival audience with a shimmering ballad. With respect for the tradition and a fearless creativity that bends the conventions of the style\, Djangophonique is keeping the Hot Club of France revival alive and well. Harmonious Wail\, from Madison\, Wisconsin\, opens the show with Americana-infused gypsy jazz.

SUMMARY:Performance:JOINT: A Violin/Dance/Visual Arts Celebration
DESCRIPTION:JOINT\nBodies in every size\, shape and color\, with hearts beating wildly and ideas colliding – the energy created in a LIVE interaction is sparked between hundreds of “joints” moving in tandem and in opposites on stage.  Music and movement are woven together in real time\, unleashing creativity in our students giving our audiences a multisensory experience.           -Danielle Belen\, Associate Professor of Violin\n\nThe Project\nJOINT is a collaboration directed by SMTD faculty members Danielle Belen and Shannon Gillen\, inspired by the diverse group of immensely talented students at U of M. The central themes of JOINT will be told through the sounds of solo violinists\, the choreography of dancers\, and the lens of Venezuelan photographer\, Natali Herrera-Pacheco. \nThe months-long artistic process of connecting the students and developing the musical program\, rehearsing\, and integrating Natali’s photographic art will culminate in a 50 minute dynamic performance in Studio One of the new Dance Building on January 20th\, 2023. This space offers an amplitude of possibilities with respect to lighting design and staging\, to be explored in conjunction with Herrera-Pacheco’s powerful images projected behind the violinists and dancers. \nThe theme of the project explores the intersection of the physical body\, its individual joints and parts\, and the art we  create using them. JOINT refers literally to our physical joints\, the borders that shape the beautiful angles of our limbs from shoulders to the small knuckles in our fingers\, from our hip joints to our little pinky toe for balance. Of course\, JOINT also intimates teamwork and togetherness\, and this project reflects that in the basic fibers of its conception. \nAs a violin teacher\, Professor Belen focuses much of her teaching and research on the very visceral physical aspects of creating sound. Intertwining violinists’ bodies with the physical instrument is not far from the way dancers use their bodies to interact with spaces and each other. Professor Gillen encourages her dancers to create deeply expressive works and push boundaries as interpreters\, makers and performers.\nWe are connecting dancers and violinists\, pushing them to be expressive in ways outside of their usual comfort zones. Violinists typically perform with other string players\, while dancers often perform to pre-recorded tracks. The energy created in a LIVE interaction is sparked between hundreds of “joints” moving in tandem and in opposites on stage. \nThe Visuals\nThrough a multitude of visual arts\, Natali Herrera-Pacheco will express the concept of the body’s various frames and borders created by our physical joints\, while exploring the larger landscape of what it means for bodies\, sounds and kinetics to coexist and create a beautiful artistic experience. Her artistic voice as a woman of color goes beyond her camera\, and we are enjoying her inspiring interactions with the students leading up to this collaborative performance. Her visual storytelling and the performances by these gifted young artists will be interwoven to create a deeply enriching educational and aesthetic experience. In the artistic process\, she has regularly traveled to Ann Arbor from her current home base in Texas to workshop with our students.\nNatali has been pushing the boundaries of her art form across multiple continents and examples of her magnificent work can be found at natzstudio.com.\nThis idea of building a dynamic collaborative community within the larger SMTD landscape feels particularly relevant at this time. We hope to create a deeply connective tissue between dance and violin that speaks to larger ideas of self and personal expression through the infrastructure of this project.
