SUMMARY:Exhibition:Michelle Hinojosa: Logcabins
DESCRIPTION:Stamps Gallery commissioned Michelle Hinojosa (MFA\, 2023) to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the Gallery. Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home\, placemaking\, labor\, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body\, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade\, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley\, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.\nArtist’s bio:\nMichelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist\, educator\, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas\, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting\, bead weaving\, embroidery\, jewelry\, transparent film installations\, painting\, ceramics\, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story\, re-make\, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx\, Chicanx\, Mexican\, and Texican peoples. \n\nRecently\, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan\, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania)\, Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen\, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas\, TX).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Seminar Series: Nonreciprocal dynamics in living and robotic matter
DESCRIPTION:Tzer Han completed his Ph.D. in Physics from Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 2020. Prior to UC San Diego\, he was an ELBE Postdoctoral Fellow at the Center for Systems Biology Dresden (CSBD). With research at the intersection of soft matter and biophysics\, Tzer Han is interested in understanding how nonequilibrium forces lead to spatiotemporal organization in living matter\, and in turn\, how biological regulation harness this self-organizing capacity to make functional forms.\n\nAbstract\nNonreciprocity in biological and synthetic active matter gives rise to distinctive material properties\, such as odd material moduli\, sustained wave propagation\, and transverse responses. In this talk\, I will first highlight the odd elastodynamics that emerge in a living chiral crystals composed of thousands of spinning starfish embryos. Combining experiments\, theory and simulations\, we demonstrate that the formation\, dynamics and dissolution of these living crystals are controlled by the hydrodynamic properties and the natural development of embryos. Remarkably\, living chiral crystals exhibit self-sustained chiral oscillations as well as unconventional deformation response behaviors recently predicted for odd elastic materials. Building on these insights\, we developed a bioinspired robotic swarm with programmable nonreciprocal interactions. Our experiments demonstrate that tuning the interaction strength can transition the system from a solid-like state with odd vibrational modes to a fluid-like regime with edge states. Strikingly\, robot pairs exhibit emergent oscillatory dynamics and phase synchronization\, both essential to drive odd wave propagation in many-body collectives. Together\, these findings illustrate how nonreciprocity in living and robotic matter can enable nonequilibrium phases of chiral active matter with non-classical emergent properties.
