SUMMARY:Other:Leaves Under the Lens
DESCRIPTION:The leaf surface is a dynamic landscape where tiny\, specialized structures help plants interact with the world around them. Let’s bring this world into view! Join us for an exhibit that highlights the complex and often beautiful anatomy of leaves from the Matthaei collection. Plants throughout the conservatory will be paired with microscope photographs and micro-CT scans that illustrate the otherwise invisible structures that protect leaves from chewing insects\, absorb (or repel!) water\, and even recruit “bodyguards”. You won’t look at leaves the same way again! \n\nThis project is a collaboration between MBGNA and the Weber and Vasconcelos labs in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\, led by PhD student Rosemary Glos.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:8-BIT Music Exhibit: The Gallery
DESCRIPTION:MORE INFO: https://sites.lsa.umich.edu/8bitmusic/ \n\nThe 8-Bit Music Exhibit is a week-long exploration of the creation of the nostalgic\, retro tunes many have grown up with and come to love\, as well as a showcase of how such music has been reclaimed and repurposed for continued existence in the modern world. The gallery plans to guide viewers through a history of 8-bit music\, its significance to media and video games of its time\, and notable figures that influenced the legacy of the niched genre. In the workshop\, participants will learn how modern chiptune artists create music from Game Boys and the production software LSDJ\, and have the opportunity to create music of their own design. Throughout the end of the exhibit week\, we will celebrate the historic and modern legacies of 8-bit music in a set of live performances produced by Norah\, a seasoned chiptune artist.\n\nOur goal in developing this exhibit is to highlight 8-bit/chiptune music as a unique form of digital art celebrated for its sound\, cultural significance\, and innovation. Throughout the lifespans of the original hardware supporting this music\, artists often faced limitations due to hardware constraints. These difficulties led to early video game industry composers inventing new techniques and methods for music creation that have evolved over time and remain influential today.\n\nTHANK YOU to our co-sponsors and partners for your support in the creation of this event!\n-> U-M LSA Technology Services Digital Scholarship (https://lsa.umich.edu/technology-services/services/research-tools/digital-scholarship.html)\n-> U-M Digital Studies Institute (https://www.digitalstudies.umich.edu/)\n-> U-M Arts Initiative (https://arts.umich.edu/arts-initiative)\n-> Neutral Zone (https://www.neutral-zone.org/event-list/2025/4/11/free-tech-workshop-chiptune-8-bit)\n-> Ann Arbor District Libraries (https://aadl.org/)\n-> Ypsilanti District Libraries (https://www.ypsilibrary.org/)\n-> Pinball Pete's in Ann Arbor (https://www.pinballpetes.org/copy-of-east-lansing-location)\n-> Video Game Music Club (VGMC) (https://maizepages.umich.edu/organization/vgmc)\n-> WolvSec (https://wolvsec.org/)\n-> LGBTQ+ Michigan (https://websites.umich.edu/~lgbtqmichigan/#)\n-> Ann Arbor Fighting Game Community at the University of Michigan (FGC) (https://maizepages.umich.edu/organization/a2fgc)
