SUMMARY:Exhibition:Window Installation | Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and professor Jim Cogswell has been invited by the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology and the University of Michigan Museum of Art to create a set of public window installations in response to the objects in their collections. Titled \"Cosmogonic Tattoos\,\" his project uses adhesive vinyl images applied in saturated colors to windows in the two buildings\, highlighting the role of these museums in the life of our campus community. Through close examination of objects separated from us by deep chronological and cultural divides\, imaginatively transformed within our campus context\, this project celebrates the power of architecture\, ornament\, and material objects to shape knowledge\, historical memory\, and cultural identity.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents On Blue: Photographic Meditations
DESCRIPTION:Loosely based on the concept of the early 20th century group f64\, the f8collective is composed of female contemporary Chicago photographers who all happen to have strong family ties to Michigan. The group of images on exhibit is from a project called On Blue: A Meditation. Blue is… tranquil pools of clear water\; languid clouds drifting in azure skies\; mood indigo\; cobalt glass\; cerulean blue eyes\; sapphire cornflowers\; poignant music\, emotion and sentiment. Blue is a rare color in nature\, yet found in the largest things such as sea\, lake and sky\, as well as some of the smallest: sapphires\, forget-me-nots and delicate tropical butterflies.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Timeless Instants: Still Life Photographs
DESCRIPTION:Originally from Kansas City\, Tina West discovered photography while studying sculpture. She sees her photographs more as paintings\, and her still lifes have powerful cast shadows and frequent light play. Influenced by Gerhardt Richter and surrealism\, West’s images communicate a sense of being\, connecting not only the objects in the photographs\, but also the viewer and the photograph. She draws inspiration from the objects in her vast collection of unique treasures\, and she speaks to their unreserved timelessness with maturity and wonder. All of the images in this exhibit were created using instant film in a 4x5 view camera.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:LACS Exhibition. #NoHumanIsAlien: Germán Andino's The Habit of Silence
DESCRIPTION:Reception: An exhibition of Germán Andino’s graphic history: The Habit of Silence (El hábito de la mordaza) \n    \nHonduran journalist and artist Germán Andino’s harrowing work of graphic history depicts gang violence in the city of San Pedro Sula from personal and deeply humane perspective. The installation of his work as a mural in a central public space on our campus is intended to provoke conversation in place of silence. Much reporting on Central America depicts the problem of gangs and violence as far away and impossible to solve\, and the victims and perpetrators of this violence as essentially alien. With the hashtag #NoHumanIsAlien\, the artist and organizers invite reflection on a crisis of violence in Central America that has been exacerbated\, and in important ways created\, by policies originating in the United States. We hope to spark and enrich debate on our campus about current immigration policies\, including the cancellation of Temporary Protected Status for Salvadoran migrants and the asylum claims of tens of thousands of unaccompanied Central American children\, children who have fled the conditions depicted in Andino’s work. \n    \nThis exhibit\, a large-scale comic strip along the halls of the second floor of Mason Hall\, will be open for viewing from March 19 - April 6\, 2018. \n    \nJoin us for the opening reception with Germán Andino on March 26\, 2018 from 5:00 - 6:30 pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Life and Times of Lizzy Bennet
DESCRIPTION:As the 200th anniversary of Jane Austen’s death\, 2017 presents an opportunity to showcase not only significant early editions of Austen’s works held in the Special Collections Library\, but a much broader swath of materials revealing the historical milieu in which she and her characters lived.\n\nThe 1780s-1810s was a tumultuous time period in Britain with effects reaching to the present day\, and we are fortunate to be able to draw on a rich collection of sources that illustrate Austen’s historical moment\, from A Companion to the Ballroom and The Book of Common Prayer to An Essay on the Slavery and Commerce of the Human Species... and A Vindication of the Rights of Woman.\n\nThe Library will be closed December 23 to January 1.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:EXHIBITION ON VIEW: DRAWING CODES: EXPERIMENTAL PROTOCOLS OF ARCHITECTURAL REPRESENTATION
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition on-view March 7 - 28\n\nEmerging technologies of design and production have opened up new ways to engage with traditional practices of architectural drawing. The twenty-four experimental drawings commissioned for this exhibition explore the impact of such technologies on the relationship between code and drawing: how rules and constraints inform the ways architects document\, analyze\, represent\, and design the built environment.\n\nEach drawing engages with at least one of the below prompts that begin to expand the notion of code as it relates to architectural design and representation:\n\nCode as generative constraint. Restrictive codes often govern what is permitted and what is prohibited. Examples of this include building codes\, urban codes\, zoning codes\, accessibility codes\, and energy codes. How can such constraints become generative\, opening up opportunities for design and representation?\nCode as language. A code can be understood as a set of rules\, conventions\, and traditions of syntax and grammar that structure the communication of information. The discipline of architecture similarly has its own language of typologies\, taxonomies\, and classifications. How can drawing engage with such architectural languages?\nCode as cipher. Encoded or encrypted messages are intended to hide or conceal information. Likewise\, architectural geometries\, forms\, spaces\, and assemblies are embedded with invisible organizational\, social\, political\, or economic logics that may not be immediately evident. How can drawing engage with these latent meanings and messages?\nCode as script. A code can be understood as a script or a recipe: a set of instructions to be executed or performed by a computer\, a robot\, or (in the case of theater or film)\, an actor. Scripts often produce unexpected discrepancies between the intent of the code and how it is executed. How can drawing explore these open-ended processes that may not have a defined outcome?\nThe invited architects were asked to conform to a set of strict rules: consistent dimension\, black & white medium\, and limiting the drawing to orthographic projection. The intent is for this consistency to emphasize the wide range of approaches to questions of technology\, design\, and representation. Yet within this considerable diversity of medium\, aesthetic sensibility\, and content\, several common qualities emerge. First is the unsure link between code and outcome: glitches\, bugs\, accidents\, anomalies\, but also loopholes\, deviations\, variances\, and departures that open up new potentials for architectural design and representation. Second is a mature embrace of technology not as a fetishized end game\, but as an instrument employed synthetically in concert with other architectural “tools of the trade.” And finally\, these drawings demonstrate how conventions of architectural representation remain fertile territory for invention and speculation.\n\nAt the show's initial run at CCA in San Francisco\, an adjacent gallery featured work by CCA Architecture students in Kinematic Code\, a course taught by Clayton Muhleman that has been exploring procedural and robotic drawing techniques.\n\nPanel discussion Tuesday\, March 6 at 6:00pm in the Art & Architecture Auditorium\, followed by opening reception in the College Gallery. Exhibition on view March 7 - March 28.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection
DESCRIPTION:Gallery hours are 11 a.m.–5 p.m. Tuesday–Saturday and 12–5 p.m. Sunday\; galleries are closed on Mondays.\n\nThis exhibition celebrates Gertrude Kasle (1917–2016)\, a key figure in the formation of Detroit’s contemporary art community in the 1960s and 70s. A pioneering female gallerist\, Kasle provided midwest audiences with a venue in which to experience avant-garde art from centers like New York City\, while also supporting and exhibiting regional artists. Featuring a collection of paintings\, works on paper\, and sculptures from the height of the Abstract Expressionist movement through the early twenty-first century\, 'Exercising the Eye' speaks to the relationships Kasle fostered with local\, national\, and international artists and her appreciation for artistic expression and experimentation. Critical voices from the last fifty years include Philip Guston\, Jane Hammond\, Grace Hartigan\, Jasper Johns\, Michele Oka Doner\, and Robert Rauschenberg. The exhibition offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore a dynamic moment in Detroit’s cultural history and insight into Kasle’s love of looking and learning.\n\nLead support for 'Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Paul Rand
DESCRIPTION:Throughout the second half of the twentieth century\, pioneering art director and graphic designer Paul Rand (1914–1996) was celebrated for crafting the brand identities of such American corporate icons as ABC\, IBM\, UPS\, and Westinghouse. Rand considered the designer’s task to be the symbolic communication of a company’s character. This recent acquisition presentation features the poster Rand created as part of IBM’s THINK promotional campaign. The design is a rebus\, or visual puzzle\, wherein Rand cleverly transforms the letters of IBM’s logo into pictures. The whimsical use of symbols encourages viewers to interpret—or think—in order to comprehend the company’s intended message that it values “insight\,” “industriousness\,” and “motivation.” The poster is part of a larger recent gift of archival Paul Rand objects donated to UMMA by Franc Nunoo-Quarcoo—professor in the U-M Stamps School of Art and Design and published scholar on Paul Rand—and Maria Phillips.\n\nThis work was recently gifted to UMMA by Maria Phillips and Franc Nunoo-Quarcoo.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Patricia Piccinini: The Comforter
DESCRIPTION:Australian artist Patricia Piccinini’s strange\, hyperreal yet sentimental sculptures are often rooted in her speculative visualizations of future species—beings transformed by\, or even created by\, developments in genetic engineering and technology.  On view at UMMA\, \"The Comforter\" presents the likeness of a young girl whose appearance suggests a rare genetic condition causing excessive hair across her face and body. In her lap she tenderly cradles an udder-shaped\, eyeless creature—a possible reference to current experiments in genetically altered milk-producing animals. The encounter staged by the sculpture\, though curious and unexplained\, appears to be one of innocence and intimacy\, and suggests the potential for emotional connection between a diversity of beings. This theme is a common one for Piccinini\, whose work incorporates (often obliquely) ideas and questions about the ethical implications of scientific progress and the conflicts in our culture between the natural and the man-made.\n\nLead support for \"Patricia Piccinini: The Comforter\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece
DESCRIPTION:Since the 1980s\, British artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster have been known for their shadow sculptures built from materials as diverse as scrap metal\, garbage\, taxidermy\, and sex toys. When light is directed at these assemblages\, they project shadows that are exceptionally accurate and intricate representations of other things entirely.\n\n\"The Masterpiece\" (2014) is a shadow self-portrait of the artists created from metal casts of dead vermin they collected and welded together into a ball. From afar the casts appear to be a stunning abstract silver sculpture\; on closer inspection the disturbing menagerie of creatures emerges\, only to change form again—as a shadow on the wall—into a precise and elegant image that is astonishingly different from the objects that create it.\n\nLead support for \"Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece\" is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities. Additional generous support is provided by the Richard and Janet Miller Fund.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Tremor
DESCRIPTION:in German\, Italian\, Dutch\, Icelandic\, French & Lomongo\n\nTREMOR is driven by the voices that run through it – the voices of poets and madmen\, of a mother or a child. From self-reflexive thoughts to spontaneous accounts\, from witness statements to pure fiction\, they talk in turns about their experience of violence and war. As we listen to them\, our gaze is taken to places and scarred landscapes impossible to locate. Noises from elsewhere filter through. The image becomes distorted and porous. Music starts to play. The film lingers over the presence of a pianist\, before diffracting again... TREMOR is a sensory journey between memory and nightmare. An act of resistance.

DESCRIPTION:This program is free and open to the public\, but space is limited. Please register to secure your place by emailing umma-program-registration@umich.edu. Please include date and title of program in the subject line of your email.\n\n'Aftermath' considers photography’s role in documenting and commemorating tragic events\, including conflicts\, natural disasters\, and the devastation wrought by modern technology. Disasters often affect particular geographic locations at particular moments. However\, photographs have the ability to produce imagined communities of spectators across space and time and play a key role in shaping collective memories of such catastrophic events. Join Sean Kramer\, Curatorial Intern in the Department of Photography at UMMA\, for a discussion of these complex issues in relation to photographs by Felice Beato\, Timothy O’Sullivan\, Margaret Bourke-White\, and Sally Mann\, among others. \n\nLead support for 'Aftermath: Landscapes of Devastation' is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan School for Environment and Sustainability and Department of Screen Arts and Cultures.

SUMMARY:Performance:We Banjo 3
DESCRIPTION:One of the best live acts to come out of Ireland in recent years is the multi-awarded winning We Banjo 3. With a seven-time all-Ireland banjo champ\, a four-time banjo champ\, and another member who is an all-Ireland champ on both fiddle and bodhran\, and with a passionate lead vocalist like a young Springsteen adopted by the Chieftains\, the result is unforgettable. On both sides of the Atlantic the word is out about this group! WB3 performed at the  “Friends of Ireland” luncheon on Capital Hill attended by House Speaker Paul Ryan\, President Barack Obama\, Vice President Joe Biden\, and Irish Prime Minister Enda Kenny\, and has headlined virtually every major U.S .Celtic fest for several years in a row. With a strong bluegrass influence\, the band is rapidly gaining favor in the worlds of bluegrass and Americana as well\, as evidenced by their invites to Merlefest\, ROMP Fest\, Sisters Folk Fest\, Old Settlers Fest\, Four Corners Fest and more! Scots band Talisk\, recent winners of the BBC Young Folk Award\, is special guest.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach Out Series: Sleep Deprivation: Habits\, Solutions\, and Strategies
DESCRIPTION:Sleep deprivation is a silent epidemic. Since the invention of the light bulb\, we have obtained less sleep than our ancestors\, prioritizing work\, school\, socializing\, sports\, screen time – just about everything – over sleep. Sleep is viewed as compressible\, something that can be made up at any time\, but rarely is. Most believe this poses little risk. Unfortunately\, they could not be more wrong.\n\nThe truth is\, an adequate amount of good-quality sleep is critical to good health. Lack of sleep leads to deadly crashes\, reduces productivity\, and harms quality of life. Insufficient or disordered sleep can increase risk for ADHD\, depression\, heart attack\, stroke\, arrhythmia\, heart failure\, and early death.\n\nThis Teach-Out can be your first step in doing something about sleep deprivation. Learn how sleep works\, why it is important\, and what bad sleep habits are. Hear solutions you can start tonight to sleep better for the rest of your life. Understand strategies to help family and friends improve their sleep. Learn to advocate for the sleep health of your community. This Teach-Out is intended to connect learners worldwide to the University of Michigan in conversation around sleep deprivation.\n\nA Teach-Out is:\n\n-an event – it takes place over a fixed\, short period of time\n\n-an opportunity – it is open for free participation to everyone around the world\n\n-a community – it will be joined by a large number of diverse individuals\n\n-a conversation – an opportunity to give and take ideas and information from people\n\nThe University of Michigan Teach-Out Series provides just-in-time community learning events for participants around the world to come together in conversation with the U-M campus community\, including faculty experts. The U-M Teach-Out Series is part of our deep commitment to engage the public in exploring and understanding the problems\, events\, and phenomena most important to society.\n\nTeach-Outs are short learning experiences\, each focused on a specific current issue. Attendees will come together over a few days not only to learn about a subject or event but also to gain skills. Teach-Outs are open to the world and are designed to bring together individuals with wide-ranging perspectives in respectful and deep conversation. These events are an opportunity for diverse learners and a multitude of experts to come together to ask questions of one another and explore new solutions to the pressing concerns of our global community.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach- Out Series: Free Speech in Journalism
DESCRIPTION:A free press is essential for a healthy\, vibrant\, democratic society. Yet public trust in journalism has hit historic lows in recent years and journalists have recently been openly maligned for their work. This Teach-Out prompts participants to think critically about the roles and responsibilities of journalists in a free society. Why is the concept of a free press written into the First Amendment? How are the rights of journalists threatened? Is this a unique moment in history? How have new modes of reporting\, such as social media and citizen journalism\, made the press more vulnerable? And\, finally\, what are the broader societal implications of a restricted and diminished press?\n\nThis Teach-Out is part of the University of Michigan 2018 Speech and Inclusion Series that aims to recognize differing views on speech and inclusion\, to explore how those views play out in politics\, culture\, higher education\, sports\, and journalism\, and to engage in productive conversations to promote a positive campus environment and help the community more deeply understand these complicated issues.\n\nA Teach-Out is:\n\n-an event – it takes place over a fixed\, short period of time\n\n-an opportunity – it is open for free participation to everyone around the world\n\n-a community – it will be joined by a large number of diverse individuals\n\n-a conversation – an opportunity to give and take ideas and information from people\n\nThe University of Michigan Teach-Out Series provides just-in-time community learning events for participants around the world to come together in conversation with the U-M campus community\, including faculty experts.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AE Defense: Impact of Vibrational Nonequilibrium on the Simulation and Modeling of Dual-Mode Scramjets
DESCRIPTION:Aerospace Engineering PhD Candidate: Romain Fiévet\, Dissertation Chair: Prof. Venkat Raman\n\nIn the aerospace world\, hypersonic aircrafts have a special place in research due to their transformative potential. The ability to travel at speeds greater than that of sound will vastly alter the global movement of people and goods. At the heart of such hypersonic aircrafts is the dual-mode scramjet engine. Unlike conventional aircraft engines\, scramjets lack a moving turbomachinery and instead rely on the natural fluid-mechanical compression of the high-speed ingested air.\n\nThe compression stage needs to be carefully designed to provide the combustor with the optimal airflow thermodynamic state\, and ensure the target thrust. Since the vehicle’s speed determines the compression ratio\, which in turn ensures stable propulsion\, a vicious circle can occur if any of these components falters. This leads to a critical in-flight engine shutdown.\n\nThe purpose of this dissertation is to decipher by the mean of computational fluid dynamics certain physics inside scramjets. By combining supercomputing resources with state-of-the-art modeling\, a high level of detail could be simulated. Particularly\, the sensitivity of shock turbulent boundary layer interactions and supersonic combustion to vibrational nonequilibrium was elucidated. In light of these findings\, a reduced-order model was built to help design operationally robust engines.\n\nDissertation Committee Names:\nChair: Venkat Raman\nCognate Member: Eric Johnsen\nMembers: James F.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Beauty Meets My Mess: Mixed Media Collage
DESCRIPTION:Re Kielar was born in Chicago’s little Italy neighborhood with her grandparents upstairs and aunt and uncle across the courtyard. Her world was very Italian\, and when she walked outside\, she felt like she was leaving one country and entering another. Ever since she was a child\, she has loved paint and texture and seen beauty in the most unlikely places. Her artwork expresses human emotion through drawing in ink with rough papers\, old book pages\, metal embellishments and natural objects. Each abstract collage is coupled with her poetry\, so each piece is a walk into her soul. She hopes that by sharing that which is broken\, we can find healing spaces that knit our hearts together.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Timeless Instants: Still Life Photographs
DESCRIPTION:Originally from Kansas City\, Tina West discovered photography while studying sculpture. She sees her photographs more as paintings\, and her still lifes have powerful cast shadows and frequent light play. Influenced by Gerhardt Richter and surrealism\, West’s images communicate a sense of being\, connecting not only the objects in the photographs\, but also the viewer and the photograph. She draws inspiration from the objects in her vast collection of unique treasures\, and she speaks to their unreserved timelessness with maturity and wonder. All of the images in this exhibit were created using instant film in a 4x5 view camera.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:LACS Exhibition. #NoHumanIsAlien: Germán Andino's The Habit of Silence
DESCRIPTION:Reception: An exhibition of Germán Andino’s graphic history: The Habit of Silence (El hábito de la mordaza) \n    \nHonduran journalist and artist Germán Andino’s harrowing work of graphic history depicts gang violence in the city of San Pedro Sula from personal and deeply humane perspective. The installation of his work as a mural in a central public space on our campus is intended to provoke conversation in place of silence. Much reporting on Central America depicts the problem of gangs and violence as far away and impossible to solve\, and the victims and perpetrators of this violence as essentially alien. With the hashtag #NoHumanIsAlien\, the artist and organizers invite reflection on a crisis of violence in Central America that has been exacerbated\, and in important ways created\, by policies originating in the United States. We hope to spark and enrich debate on our campus about current immigration policies\, including the cancellation of Temporary Protected Status for Salvadoran migrants and the asylum claims of tens of thousands of unaccompanied Central American children\, children who have fled the conditions depicted in Andino’s work. \n    \nThis exhibit\, a large-scale comic strip along the halls of the second floor of Mason Hall\, will be open for viewing from March 19 - April 6\, 2018. \n    \nJoin us for the opening reception with Germán Andino on March 26\, 2018 from 5:00 - 6:30 pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:EXHIBITION ON VIEW: DRAWING CODES: EXPERIMENTAL PROTOCOLS OF ARCHITECTURAL REPRESENTATION
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition on-view March 7 - 28\n\nEmerging technologies of design and production have opened up new ways to engage with traditional practices of architectural drawing. The twenty-four experimental drawings commissioned for this exhibition explore the impact of such technologies on the relationship between code and drawing: how rules and constraints inform the ways architects document\, analyze\, represent\, and design the built environment.\n\nEach drawing engages with at least one of the below prompts that begin to expand the notion of code as it relates to architectural design and representation:\n\nCode as generative constraint. Restrictive codes often govern what is permitted and what is prohibited. Examples of this include building codes\, urban codes\, zoning codes\, accessibility codes\, and energy codes. How can such constraints become generative\, opening up opportunities for design and representation?\nCode as language. A code can be understood as a set of rules\, conventions\, and traditions of syntax and grammar that structure the communication of information. The discipline of architecture similarly has its own language of typologies\, taxonomies\, and classifications. How can drawing engage with such architectural languages?\nCode as cipher. Encoded or encrypted messages are intended to hide or conceal information. Likewise\, architectural geometries\, forms\, spaces\, and assemblies are embedded with invisible organizational\, social\, political\, or economic logics that may not be immediately evident. How can drawing engage with these latent meanings and messages?\nCode as script. A code can be understood as a script or a recipe: a set of instructions to be executed or performed by a computer\, a robot\, or (in the case of theater or film)\, an actor. Scripts often produce unexpected discrepancies between the intent of the code and how it is executed. How can drawing explore these open-ended processes that may not have a defined outcome?\nThe invited architects were asked to conform to a set of strict rules: consistent dimension\, black & white medium\, and limiting the drawing to orthographic projection. The intent is for this consistency to emphasize the wide range of approaches to questions of technology\, design\, and representation. Yet within this considerable diversity of medium\, aesthetic sensibility\, and content\, several common qualities emerge. First is the unsure link between code and outcome: glitches\, bugs\, accidents\, anomalies\, but also loopholes\, deviations\, variances\, and departures that open up new potentials for architectural design and representation. Second is a mature embrace of technology not as a fetishized end game\, but as an instrument employed synthetically in concert with other architectural “tools of the trade.” And finally\, these drawings demonstrate how conventions of architectural representation remain fertile territory for invention and speculation.\n\nAt the show's initial run at CCA in San Francisco\, an adjacent gallery featured work by CCA Architecture students in Kinematic Code\, a course taught by Clayton Muhleman that has been exploring procedural and robotic drawing techniques.\n\nPanel discussion Tuesday\, March 6 at 6:00pm in the Art & Architecture Auditorium\, followed by opening reception in the College Gallery. Exhibition on view March 7 - March 28.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Interior Streets
DESCRIPTION:Join us March 9\, 3pm\, for a reception and Carl Wilson in conversation with our curator Amanda Krugliak.\n\nThe \"Interior Streets\" exhibition features the work of Detroit artist Carl Wilson\, known for his stark black and white linocut prints. The self-taught artist sees himself as a documentarian of lives easily ignored in a world obsessed with materialism and celebrity. His work frequently highlights not only the strength found in conquering the everyday and mundane\, but also the pain and defeat of those not able to rise to the occasion. His love of film noir and pulp fiction novels from the 1940s and '50s has led him to experiment with minimalist animation and comic book illustration. He embraces the whimsy hidden in the darkness.\n\nCarl is the recipient of a 2013 Kresge Artist Fellowship and is an alumni of the historic Yaddo Artists’ Community. During his residency there he carved the prints for\, and wrote the book\, Her Purse Smelled like Juicyfruit\, a recollection of his mother’s life. Carl was named 2014 guest curator of Detroit’s Carr Center. Also in 2014 Complex Online Magazine named him one of Twenty Detroit Artists You Should Know. He was featured in Essay'd\, a monthly publication about Detroit artists. 2017 sees the release of a comic book\, the first installment of his graphic novel\, Dead and Lost in Detroit.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Paul Rand
DESCRIPTION:Throughout the second half of the twentieth century\, pioneering art director and graphic designer Paul Rand (1914–1996) was celebrated for crafting the brand identities of such American corporate icons as ABC\, IBM\, UPS\, and Westinghouse. Rand considered the designer’s task to be the symbolic communication of a company’s character. This recent acquisition presentation features the poster Rand created as part of IBM’s THINK promotional campaign. The design is a rebus\, or visual puzzle\, wherein Rand cleverly transforms the letters of IBM’s logo into pictures. The whimsical use of symbols encourages viewers to interpret—or think—in order to comprehend the company’s intended message that it values “insight\,” “industriousness\,” and “motivation.” The poster is part of a larger recent gift of archival Paul Rand objects donated to UMMA by Franc Nunoo-Quarcoo—professor in the U-M Stamps School of Art and Design and published scholar on Paul Rand—and Maria Phillips.\n\nThis work was recently gifted to UMMA by Maria Phillips and Franc Nunoo-Quarcoo.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Patricia Piccinini: The Comforter
DESCRIPTION:Australian artist Patricia Piccinini’s strange\, hyperreal yet sentimental sculptures are often rooted in her speculative visualizations of future species—beings transformed by\, or even created by\, developments in genetic engineering and technology.  On view at UMMA\, \"The Comforter\" presents the likeness of a young girl whose appearance suggests a rare genetic condition causing excessive hair across her face and body. In her lap she tenderly cradles an udder-shaped\, eyeless creature—a possible reference to current experiments in genetically altered milk-producing animals. The encounter staged by the sculpture\, though curious and unexplained\, appears to be one of innocence and intimacy\, and suggests the potential for emotional connection between a diversity of beings. This theme is a common one for Piccinini\, whose work incorporates (often obliquely) ideas and questions about the ethical implications of scientific progress and the conflicts in our culture between the natural and the man-made.\n\nLead support for \"Patricia Piccinini: The Comforter\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the Herbert W. and Susan L.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece
DESCRIPTION:Since the 1980s\, British artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster have been known for their shadow sculptures built from materials as diverse as scrap metal\, garbage\, taxidermy\, and sex toys. When light is directed at these assemblages\, they project shadows that are exceptionally accurate and intricate representations of other things entirely.\n\n\"The Masterpiece\" (2014) is a shadow self-portrait of the artists created from metal casts of dead vermin they collected and welded together into a ball. From afar the casts appear to be a stunning abstract silver sculpture\; on closer inspection the disturbing menagerie of creatures emerges\, only to change form again—as a shadow on the wall—into a precise and elegant image that is astonishingly different from the objects that create it.\n\nLead support for \"Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece\" is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities. Additional generous support is provided by the Richard and Janet Miller Fund.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Developmental Area Brown Bag - Prevalence\, Predictors\, and Consequences of Substance Use: A Neurodevelopmental Perspective
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Despite being a major public health concern\, substance use is pervasive in the United States. Substance use tends to begin in adolescence and then escalate through early adulthood\, indicating the importance of using a developmental perspective in substance use research. In this talk\, I will discuss psychosocial and neural predictors of substance use among youth\, focusing on alcohol and marijuana. I will also discuss impacts of substance use on psychosocial and neural functioning. In addition to presenting multi-level risk factors for youth substance use\, I will highlight aspects of resilience as well.\n\nBio: Dr. Martz is a postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Michigan Addiction Center within the Department of Psychiatry. Her research focuses on psychosocial and neural factors associated with substance use risk and resilience among adolescents and young adults. Using multidisciplinary methods\, Dr. Martz has examined both population-level survey data from the Monitoring the Future study and is currently working with fMRI data from the Michigan Longitudinal Study and the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development Study. Dr. Martz received her PhD in Developmental Psychology from the University of Michigan and completed a pre-doctoral fellowship with NIDA’s Substance Abuse Interdisciplinary Training Program. Prior to completing her PhD\, Dr. Martz received a MSW degree from the University of Chicago and a BS degree in Psychology with a minor in Human Development and Family Studies from Indiana University.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CANCELED - Social\, Behavioral & Experimental Economics (SBEE): Moral Values and Voting
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nThis paper studies the supply of and demand for moral values in recent U.S. presidential elections. The hypothesis is that people exhibit heterogeneity in their adherence to “individualizing” relative to “communal” moral values and that politicians’ vote shares reflect the interaction of their relative moral appeal and the values of the electorate. To investigate the supply of morality\, a text analysis of campaign documents classifies all candidates for the presidency since 2008 along the moral individualism vs. communalism dimension. On the demand-side\, the analysis exploits two separate survey datasets to link the structure of voters’ moral values to election outcomes\, both across individuals and across counties. The results document that heterogeneity in moral values is systematically related to voting behavior in ways that are predicted by supply-side text analyses. For example\, Donald Trump’s rhetoric exhibits the largest communal moral appeal among all recent presidential nominees. This pattern is matched on the demand-side\, where communal values are strongly correlated with votes for Trump in the primaries\, the difference in votes between Trump and past Republicans in the presidential election\, and increases in voter turnout in 2016. Similarly tight connections between supply- and demand-side analyses hold for almost all contenders for the presidency in recent years\, hence suggesting that morality is a key determinant of election outcomes more generally. Still\, a key difference between 2016 and earlier elections appears to be the salience of moral threat in political language.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Decision Consortium - The Knowledge Illusion
DESCRIPTION:Humans have built hugely complex societies and technologies\, but most of us don’t even know how a pen or a toilet works. How have we achieved so much despite understanding so little? The answer is that we survive and thrive despite our mental shortcomings because we live in a rich community of knowledge. The key to our intelligence lies in the people and things around us. We’re constantly drawing on information and expertise stored outside our heads: in our bodies\, our environment\, our possessions\, and the community with which we interact—and usually we don’t even realize we’re doing it. The human mind is both brilliant and pathetic. We have mastered fire\, created democratic institutions\, stood on the moon\, and sequenced our genome. And yet each of us is error prone\, sometimes irrational\, and often ignorant. The fundamentally communal nature of intelligence and knowledge explains why we often assume we know more than we really do\, why political opinions and false beliefs are so hard to change\, and why individually oriented approaches to education and management frequently fail. But our collaborative minds also enable us to do amazing things\; true genius can be found in the ways we create intelligence using the world around us. The talk will highlight research aimed at improving public discourse around divisive issues in light of individual ignorance and distributed knowledge.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Black on Both Sides: A Racial History of Trans Identity
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a lecture by C. Riley Snorton\, Associate Professor of Africana Studies at Cornell University.\n\nLecture Abstract:\nDrawing on a deep and varied archive of materials—early sexological texts\, fugitive slave narratives\, Afro-modernist literature\, sensationalist journalism\, Hollywood films—in this talk\, Snorton attends to how slavery and the production of racialized gender provided the foundations for an understanding of gender as mutable. In tracing the twinned genealogies of blackness and transness\, Snorton follows multiple trajectories\, from the medical experiments conducted on enslaved black women by J. Marion Sims\, the “father of American gynecology\,” to instances of personal sovereignty among blacks living in the antebellum North that were mapped in terms of “cross dressing.”

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Characterizing Hot and Dense Nuclear Matter Using Temperature Fluctuation
DESCRIPTION:Power law formulae have routinely been used to describe the transverse momentum spectra of the hadrons at high energies. The Tsallis distribution is one among them which has been very successful in explaining the experimental transverse momentum distribution\, longitudinal momentum fraction distribution as well as the rapidity distribution of the hadrons in electron-positron and proton-proton collisions. The Tsallis distribution is a two parameter power-law distribution\, described by the Tsallis parameter q (which can be related to the relative variance in temperature) and the Tsallis temperature T\, which reduces to the Boltzmann (exponential) distribution when q goes to 1. The Tsallis distribution has been used in many fields of the physical as well as the social sciences (like Statistical Mechanics\, Geology\, Anatomy\, Economics\, Finance and many more). In the realm of the physical sciences it arises when there are systems with non-ideal effects like long range correlation\, memory effect etc. Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP)\, the hot and dense medium created during the high energy collision phenomena\, is one such example. This medium has been under intensive study for the past few decades and we will discuss how the Tsallis distribution can be used for characterization of QGP.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:STS Speaker. Bureaucratic epistemes and regulatory disputes: Genetically Modified (GM) crops between science and legal-administration
DESCRIPTION:A fierce controversy surrounding the question of allowing commercial release of GM food crops\, has been raging in India for nearly a decade. While the controversy concerns far-reaching issues of food security\, food sovereignty\, consumers' choice\, farmers' livelihoods and ecological impacts\, these are articulated in government policymaking via bureaucratic routines and documents. In this talk\, I examine the regulatory regime overseeing GM crops in India\, instituted in the late 1980s\, to argue that two epistemes - scientific and legal-administrative - are fused in its design. By unraveling the course of two regulatory disputes\, I suggest that an inherent ambiguity is lodged between scientific and legal-administrative modes of documentation\, as facts generated in one register can be challenged by those registered in the other. I demonstrate that this ambiguity both fosters and constrains democratic participation and scrutiny over government policymaking\, with deeply ambivalent implications.

SUMMARY:Other:The When\, Why\, and How of Flow Chemistry
DESCRIPTION:                                                                                                                                                                        Flow chemistry has the potential to revolutionize the synthesis of organic molecules.  Flow systems can reduce reaction times\, increase efficiency\, and obviate problems often encountered in scaling up.  In addition to these important practical advantages\, flow chemistry expands the “toolbox” of organic reactions available to scientists engaged in the synthesis of molecules – from small-scale experiments to large-scale production.  These benefits are a direct result of several features of flow synthesis that batch synthesis typically cannot achieve\, for example\, the ability to control fluid flow precisely\, the access to temperature and pressure regimes not usually considered to be practical\, and the enhanced safety characteristics of flow chemical systems.  In this lecture we will discuss some of our investigations in this area in the form of case studies\, wherein a specific target or family of organic molecules has served as an inspiration for the development of new methods of organic synthesis in flow.  Flow chemistry represents an important conceptual advance in the design and execution of chemical syntheses.                                                                        \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nTimothy Jamison (Massachusetts Institute of Technology)

SUMMARY:Exhibition:LACS Exhibition. #NoHumanIsAlien: Germán Andino's The Habit of Silence
DESCRIPTION:Reception: An exhibition of Germán Andino’s graphic history: The Habit of Silence (El hábito de la mordaza) \n    \nHonduran journalist and artist Germán Andino’s harrowing work of graphic history depicts gang violence in the city of San Pedro Sula from personal and deeply humane perspective. The installation of his work as a mural in a central public space on our campus is intended to provoke conversation in place of silence. Much reporting on Central America depicts the problem of gangs and violence as far away and impossible to solve\, and the victims and perpetrators of this violence as essentially alien. With the hashtag #NoHumanIsAlien\, the artist and organizers invite reflection on a crisis of violence in Central America that has been exacerbated\, and in important ways created\, by policies originating in the United States. We hope to spark and enrich debate on our campus about current immigration policies\, including the cancellation of Temporary Protected Status for Salvadoran migrants and the asylum claims of tens of thousands of unaccompanied Central American children\, children who have fled the conditions depicted in Andino’s work. \n    \nThis exhibit\, a large-scale comic strip along the halls of the second floor of Mason Hall\, will be open for viewing from March 19 - April 6\, 2018. \n    \nJoin us for the opening reception with Germán Andino on March 26\, 2018 from 5:00 - 6:30 pm.

SUMMARY:Presentation:UM Psychology Community Talk with Dr. Priti Shah
DESCRIPTION:Uninhibited Imaginations: Creativity and Hyperfocus in ADHD\n\nADHD is a common neuropsychologyical disorder marked by inattentiveness\, impulsivity\, and hyperactivity.  ADHD may contribute to functional impairment in academic\, vocational\, and social situations. At the same time\, the attentional disregulation associated with ADHD may have some positive consequences.   In this talk\, I will present data suggesting that one of these benefits may be exceptional creativity.  Specifically\, individuals with ADHD  exhibit enhanced \"divergent\" thinking\, and this thinking style is associated with greater creative achievement in some domains.  I will also discuss data suggesting that individuals with ADHD\, when motivated\, may actually show periods of intense focus (often dubbed hyperfocus)\; this intense focus can have benefits (e.g.\, for the creative process) and costs (e.g.\, procrastination).  I will also briefly describe ongoing research on attention interventions for ADHD children. Finally\, I will speculate on clinical and academic implications of this research. \n\nPriti Shah is a Professor of Psychology at the University of Michigan in cognition and cognitive neuroscience and educational psychology. She completed her PhD at Carnegie Mellon University and her undergraduate degree at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.  She studies how students learn and limitations in student learning. Current projects include studies of improving scientific reasoning in middle school children\, correcting false beliefs about science\, the impact of math anxiety on math learning\, and improving attention and motivation in children with ADHD.  Dr. Shah has edited three books and published over 60 articles and book chapters. She has received funding from numerous federal agencies and foundations such as the Institute for Educational Sciences\, the National Institute of Aging\, the National Science Foundation\, and the Spencer Foundation. She is an avid reader and the mother of two children\, one in college and one in the Ann Arbor Public Schools.

SUMMARY:Performance:CSEAS Annual Gamelan Concert. From the Palace to the Tent: A Concert of Classic and Popular Gamelan Music and Dance Traditions of Java
DESCRIPTION:While the grand palaces of Central Java's traditional court cities have long functioned as centers for classical performing arts\, the festive street tents under which urban dwellers gather for family and communal ceremonies foster ever-changing popular traditions of Javanese music and dance. Two highly renowned artist-scholars from the Indonesian Institute of the Arts lead the UM student gamelan ensemble in a concert that will highlight contrasts and continuities between court and popular gamelan music and Javanese dance styles. The concert will also feature the premiere performance of \"There's also fog where I come from\" by UM Composer-in-Residence for Gamelan Conner Singh VanderBeek.

As The Los Angeles Times put it\, “Krieger owns a world of technique-take that for granted. He always knows exactly where he is going and what he is doing. He never for instant miscalculates. He communicates urgently but with strict control. He is alert to every manner of nuance and at every dynamic level his tone flatters the ear.”

SUMMARY:Performance:Mo Lowda //Quiet Hollers
DESCRIPTION:Here are two bands that offer original music with a rock sound. Known for their progressive songwriting and energetic live performances\, Mo Lowda & The Humble began in the beer-soaked basements of Philadelphia. Following the release of their first full-length\, \"Curse the Weather\, the band started to hit the road. They've played shows throughout the country\, including those at summer festivals such as Firefly. The band's 2016 sophomore release\, \"Act Accordingly\,\" was a short and sweet embodiment of the band's natural progression\, and they're coming to Michigan with a new release on the way. Quiet Hollers formed in Louisville around the songwriting of singer/guitarist Shadwick Wilde\, who originally formed the group with the idea of playing only one show—the CD release of his solo effort\, \"Unforgivable Things\,\" in 2010. The group’s debut\, I Am the Morning\, followed in 2013. Quiet Hollers signed with the indie label SonaBLAST! for their third album\, \"Amen Breaks.\" The album draws parallels between the modern entertainment landscape and the cultural crossover of the 1970s– another decade marred by division\, political corruption\, and terrorist bombs. Their shape-shifting palate makes use of orchestral strings and brass\, vintage drum-machines and samples (including the Amen Break\, the most sampled piece of music in history). \"Amen Breaks\" explores themes of spirituality\, sexuality\, and mental illness.

DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and professor Jim Cogswell has been invited by the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology and the University of Michigan Museum of Art to create a set of public window installations in response to the objects in their collections. Titled \"Cosmogonic Tattoos\,\" his project uses adhesive vinyl images applied in saturated colors to windows in the two buildings\, highlighting the role of these museums in the life of our campus community. Through close examination of objects separated from us by deep chronological and cultural divides\, imaginatively transformed within our campus context\, this project celebrates the power of architecture\, ornament\, and material objects to shape knowledge\, historical memory\, and cultural identity.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Beauty Meets My Mess: Mixed Media Collage
DESCRIPTION:Re Kielar was born in Chicago’s little Italy neighborhood with her grandparents upstairs and aunt and uncle across the courtyard. Her world was very Italian\, and when she walked outside\, she felt like she was leaving one country and entering another. Ever since she was a child\, she has loved paint and texture and seen beauty in the most unlikely places. Her artwork expresses human emotion through drawing in ink with rough papers\, old book pages\, metal embellishments and natural objects. Each abstract collage is coupled with her poetry\, so each piece is a walk into her soul. She hopes that by sharing that which is broken\, we can find healing spaces that knit our hearts together.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Timeless Instants: Still Life Photographs
DESCRIPTION:Originally from Kansas City\, Tina West discovered photography while studying sculpture. She sees her photographs more as paintings\, and her still lifes have powerful cast shadows and frequent light play. Influenced by Gerhardt Richter and surrealism\, West’s images communicate a sense of being\, connecting not only the objects in the photographs\, but also the viewer and the photograph. She draws inspiration from the objects in her vast collection of unique treasures\, and she speaks to their unreserved timelessness with maturity and wonder. All of the images in this exhibit were created using instant film in a 4x5 view camera.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:LACS Exhibition. #NoHumanIsAlien: Germán Andino's The Habit of Silence
DESCRIPTION:Reception: An exhibition of Germán Andino’s graphic history: The Habit of Silence (El hábito de la mordaza) \n    \nHonduran journalist and artist Germán Andino’s harrowing work of graphic history depicts gang violence in the city of San Pedro Sula from personal and deeply humane perspective. The installation of his work as a mural in a central public space on our campus is intended to provoke conversation in place of silence. Much reporting on Central America depicts the problem of gangs and violence as far away and impossible to solve\, and the victims and perpetrators of this violence as essentially alien. With the hashtag #NoHumanIsAlien\, the artist and organizers invite reflection on a crisis of violence in Central America that has been exacerbated\, and in important ways created\, by policies originating in the United States. We hope to spark and enrich debate on our campus about current immigration policies\, including the cancellation of Temporary Protected Status for Salvadoran migrants and the asylum claims of tens of thousands of unaccompanied Central American children\, children who have fled the conditions depicted in Andino’s work. \n    \nThis exhibit\, a large-scale comic strip along the halls of the second floor of Mason Hall\, will be open for viewing from March 19 - April 6\, 2018. \n    \nJoin us for the opening reception with Germán Andino on March 26\, 2018 from 5:00 - 6:30 pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:EXHIBITION ON VIEW: DRAWING CODES: EXPERIMENTAL PROTOCOLS OF ARCHITECTURAL REPRESENTATION
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition on-view March 7 - 28\n\nEmerging technologies of design and production have opened up new ways to engage with traditional practices of architectural drawing. The twenty-four experimental drawings commissioned for this exhibition explore the impact of such technologies on the relationship between code and drawing: how rules and constraints inform the ways architects document\, analyze\, represent\, and design the built environment.\n\nEach drawing engages with at least one of the below prompts that begin to expand the notion of code as it relates to architectural design and representation:\n\nCode as generative constraint. Restrictive codes often govern what is permitted and what is prohibited. Examples of this include building codes\, urban codes\, zoning codes\, accessibility codes\, and energy codes. How can such constraints become generative\, opening up opportunities for design and representation?\nCode as language. A code can be understood as a set of rules\, conventions\, and traditions of syntax and grammar that structure the communication of information. The discipline of architecture similarly has its own language of typologies\, taxonomies\, and classifications. How can drawing engage with such architectural languages?\nCode as cipher. Encoded or encrypted messages are intended to hide or conceal information. Likewise\, architectural geometries\, forms\, spaces\, and assemblies are embedded with invisible organizational\, social\, political\, or economic logics that may not be immediately evident. How can drawing engage with these latent meanings and messages?\nCode as script. A code can be understood as a script or a recipe: a set of instructions to be executed or performed by a computer\, a robot\, or (in the case of theater or film)\, an actor. Scripts often produce unexpected discrepancies between the intent of the code and how it is executed. How can drawing explore these open-ended processes that may not have a defined outcome?\nThe invited architects were asked to conform to a set of strict rules: consistent dimension\, black & white medium\, and limiting the drawing to orthographic projection. The intent is for this consistency to emphasize the wide range of approaches to questions of technology\, design\, and representation. Yet within this considerable diversity of medium\, aesthetic sensibility\, and content\, several common qualities emerge. First is the unsure link between code and outcome: glitches\, bugs\, accidents\, anomalies\, but also loopholes\, deviations\, variances\, and departures that open up new potentials for architectural design and representation. Second is a mature embrace of technology not as a fetishized end game\, but as an instrument employed synthetically in concert with other architectural “tools of the trade.” And finally\, these drawings demonstrate how conventions of architectural representation remain fertile territory for invention and speculation.\n\nAt the show's initial run at CCA in San Francisco\, an adjacent gallery featured work by CCA Architecture students in Kinematic Code\, a course taught by Clayton Muhleman that has been exploring procedural and robotic drawing techniques.\n\nPanel discussion Tuesday\, March 6 at 6:00pm in the Art & Architecture Auditorium\, followed by opening reception in the College Gallery. Exhibition on view March 7 - March 28.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Interior Streets
DESCRIPTION:Join us March 9\, 3pm\, for a reception and Carl Wilson in conversation with our curator Amanda Krugliak.\n\nThe \"Interior Streets\" exhibition features the work of Detroit artist Carl Wilson\, known for his stark black and white linocut prints. The self-taught artist sees himself as a documentarian of lives easily ignored in a world obsessed with materialism and celebrity. His work frequently highlights not only the strength found in conquering the everyday and mundane\, but also the pain and defeat of those not able to rise to the occasion. His love of film noir and pulp fiction novels from the 1940s and '50s has led him to experiment with minimalist animation and comic book illustration. He embraces the whimsy hidden in the darkness.\n\nCarl is the recipient of a 2013 Kresge Artist Fellowship and is an alumni of the historic Yaddo Artists’ Community. During his residency there he carved the prints for\, and wrote the book\, Her Purse Smelled like Juicyfruit\, a recollection of his mother’s life. Carl was named 2014 guest curator of Detroit’s Carr Center. Also in 2014 Complex Online Magazine named him one of Twenty Detroit Artists You Should Know. He was featured in Essay'd\, a monthly publication about Detroit artists. 2017 sees the release of a comic book\, the first installment of his graphic novel\, Dead and Lost in Detroit.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection
DESCRIPTION:Gallery hours are 11 a.m.–5 p.m. Tuesday–Saturday and 12–5 p.m. Sunday\; galleries are closed on Mondays.\n\nThis exhibition celebrates Gertrude Kasle (1917–2016)\, a key figure in the formation of Detroit’s contemporary art community in the 1960s and 70s. A pioneering female gallerist\, Kasle provided midwest audiences with a venue in which to experience avant-garde art from centers like New York City\, while also supporting and exhibiting regional artists. Featuring a collection of paintings\, works on paper\, and sculptures from the height of the Abstract Expressionist movement through the early twenty-first century\, 'Exercising the Eye' speaks to the relationships Kasle fostered with local\, national\, and international artists and her appreciation for artistic expression and experimentation. Critical voices from the last fifty years include Philip Guston\, Jane Hammond\, Grace Hartigan\, Jasper Johns\, Michele Oka Doner\, and Robert Rauschenberg. The exhibition offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore a dynamic moment in Detroit’s cultural history and insight into Kasle’s love of looking and learning.\n\nLead support for 'Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Paul Rand
DESCRIPTION:Throughout the second half of the twentieth century\, pioneering art director and graphic designer Paul Rand (1914–1996) was celebrated for crafting the brand identities of such American corporate icons as ABC\, IBM\, UPS\, and Westinghouse. Rand considered the designer’s task to be the symbolic communication of a company’s character. This recent acquisition presentation features the poster Rand created as part of IBM’s THINK promotional campaign. The design is a rebus\, or visual puzzle\, wherein Rand cleverly transforms the letters of IBM’s logo into pictures. The whimsical use of symbols encourages viewers to interpret—or think—in order to comprehend the company’s intended message that it values “insight\,” “industriousness\,” and “motivation.” The poster is part of a larger recent gift of archival Paul Rand objects donated to UMMA by Franc Nunoo-Quarcoo—professor in the U-M Stamps School of Art and Design and published scholar on Paul Rand—and Maria Phillips.\n\nThis work was recently gifted to UMMA by Maria Phillips and Franc Nunoo-Quarcoo.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Patricia Piccinini: The Comforter
DESCRIPTION:Australian artist Patricia Piccinini’s strange\, hyperreal yet sentimental sculptures are often rooted in her speculative visualizations of future species—beings transformed by\, or even created by\, developments in genetic engineering and technology.  On view at UMMA\, \"The Comforter\" presents the likeness of a young girl whose appearance suggests a rare genetic condition causing excessive hair across her face and body. In her lap she tenderly cradles an udder-shaped\, eyeless creature—a possible reference to current experiments in genetically altered milk-producing animals. The encounter staged by the sculpture\, though curious and unexplained\, appears to be one of innocence and intimacy\, and suggests the potential for emotional connection between a diversity of beings. This theme is a common one for Piccinini\, whose work incorporates (often obliquely) ideas and questions about the ethical implications of scientific progress and the conflicts in our culture between the natural and the man-made.\n\nLead support for \"Patricia Piccinini: The Comforter\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece
DESCRIPTION:Since the 1980s\, British artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster have been known for their shadow sculptures built from materials as diverse as scrap metal\, garbage\, taxidermy\, and sex toys. When light is directed at these assemblages\, they project shadows that are exceptionally accurate and intricate representations of other things entirely.\n\n\"The Masterpiece\" (2014) is a shadow self-portrait of the artists created from metal casts of dead vermin they collected and welded together into a ball. From afar the casts appear to be a stunning abstract silver sculpture\; on closer inspection the disturbing menagerie of creatures emerges\, only to change form again—as a shadow on the wall—into a precise and elegant image that is astonishingly different from the objects that create it.\n\nLead support for \"Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece\" is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities. Additional generous support is provided by the Richard and Janet Miller Fund.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Health\, History\, Demography & Development (H2D2): Relative skills of internal migrants and non-migrants in Indonesia: Role of networks
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nHow does the structure of recent migrant inflows change when communities experience more migration? I study the change in relative skills of migrants and non-migrants in the context of Indonesian internal migration over a period of 1985-2005. Using novel data of origin municipalities and year of migration\, I am able to identify origin-destination-specific migration networks as the stock of established migrants in various locations. I provide empirical results that highlight the role of network size and its economic capital in lowering the degree of positive selection in migration with respect to education. The results suggest that as origin communities accumulate migration experience\, the skill level of migrants should decline.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Tuesday Lecture Series | Qing Water Systems: A Multi-Environmental Perspective
DESCRIPTION:The Qing dynasty recognized that its empire’s multi-ecological conditions of water instability – in territories as diverse as the watery lower Yangzi delta and the arid Zunghar basin – precluded a single administrative solution applicable throughout its domains and would only be successful in the unification of Inner Asia and China proper to the extent Qing administration could implement this recognition in the form of regionally-sensitive policies. In this respect\, a sustainable Qing empire was an exercise in adaptation to both human and ecological (i.e.\, “environmental”) conditions and not simply a struggle between competing human interests\, often characterized in multi-ethnic terms. \n    \nDavid A. Bello received his PhD from the University of Southern California and is currently Elizabeth Lewis Otey Professor of East Asian Studies in the Department of History at Washington and Lee University. His main research interest is the environmental and borderland history of China’s last dynasty\, the Qing (1644-1912). His latest book\, \"Across Forest\, Steppe and Mountain: Environment\, Identity and Empire in Qing China’s Borderlands\,\" was published in 2016 by Cambridge University Press in its “Studies in Environment and History” series.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Polemical Identities\, Electorate Demographics and Electoral Rules: Strategic Identity-Signaling by Protestant Candidates in Brazilian Municipal Elections
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: I analyze how electoral rules and electorate demographics affect whether candidates who hail from polemical minority groups highlight or downplay this identity when running for political office. I present a model predicting that when voters rely entirely on identity signals\, an office-motivated candidate’s decision to broadcast or downplay her polemical identity will depend on 1) Electoral rules\, 2) Constituency demographics and the 3) The electoral salience of the candidate’s identity. This model motivates my analysis of the use of Protestant ballot titles by Protestant candidates in Brazilian municipal elections from 2002 to 2014. In line with the model’s predictions\, I find that Protestant candidates are significantly more likely to broadcast their Protestant identity in proportional city council races compared to majoritarian mayoral races\, but that this difference shrinks as Protestants compose a relatively larger fraction of the electorate. This model and accompanying empirical analysis build on behavioral findings regarding the pervasiveness of identity voting as well as the fundamental prediction from political economy that proportional rules allow for a wider range of competitive alternatives relative to majoritarian rules to show why candidates often project median identities. Additionally\, it provides a novel assessment of how electoral rules mediate the expression of Protestant Christianity in Brazilian politics.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Shared Technology\, Competing Logics: How Healthcare Providers And Law Enforcement Agents Use Prescription Drug Monitoring Programs To Combat Opioid Abuse
DESCRIPTION:Sociologists and socio-legal scholars have explored how social fields transform social problems\, but have largely overlooked how social problems transform social fields. This research uses the contemporary U.S. opioid crisis as a case for examining how efforts to address a shared social problem have transformed the fields of healthcare and criminal justice. Based on interviews with healthcare providers and enforcement agents in California\, findings demonstrate how the use of shared technology in the form of prescription drug monitoring programs paired with the encroachment of institutional logics from adjacent fields helps to reshape workers’ roles\, routines\, and relationships in ways that create opportunities for field-level change.  \n\nElizabeth Chiarello\, Ph.D. is an Assistant Professor of Sociology at Saint Louis University. She is a medical sociologist and socio-legal scholar who focuses on institutional influences on frontline work\, intersections among organizational fields\, and social movement consequences. Her work has been published in several top sociological and socio-legal journals and she has received awards from multiple sections of the American Sociological Association.\n\nEvent Accessibility: \nRamp and elevator access at the E. Washington Street entrance (by the loading dock). There are accessible restrooms on the south end of Lane Hall\, on each floor of the building. A gender neutral restroom is available on the first floor. Questions? Contact irwg@umich.edu

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Culture\, History\, and Politics Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nIn Eastern Europe\, postwar changes paved the way for the building of a socialistic university\, something seen as one of many possible solutions to a rising need for university reform\nand education for the working classes. My research does not only address how we think about a particular university\, or even universities in general in communist-ruled Poland within their\nhistorical and sociological contexts. It contributes to our broader sense of the place of universities in social change – especially in the 20th century – and how we understand intellectuals and academics\nin their own fields of power and competition. My argument challenges the totalitarian interpretation of postwar history. In general\, it disagrees with the Sovietization notion and claims that the postwar\nreforms did not solely mean a ruthless convergence of Eastern Europe with the USSR model. I examine university reforms as a try to open higher education for working classes and trace its\nresults\, that is upward mobility and educational trajectories in postwar Poland. Finally\, I claim that the narrative about the political field’s domination of the research and science field is challenged by\ntracing the reproduction of prewar traditions and structures. If one considers state socialism as a modernizing system\, with all contradictions and difficulties\, then one might also gain a better understanding of the intended aims of the postwar reality.\nShort bio: Agata Zysiak is a historical sociologist working on postwar Poland\, modernization\, and industrial cities. Her recent prize-winning book \"Point of social origin\" examines project of a socialist university.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Beyond the Book: Authenticating the Profane
DESCRIPTION:This lecture considers the question of canon and authorization.  What constitutes canon and when was it constituted? What about new texts that were discovered that were not included into canons that were shaped centuries after these until-now texts were known? Should we or can we authenticate new texts or texts that were not known to be part of the canon? What about texts that were rejected from the canon?  How and why might we reconsider the status of texts  - and can we authenticate such texts that would otherwise be considered profane? How might we rethink “marginal” texts\, the translation of the profane and the sacred\, and the constitution of “canon”?\n\nIf you have a disability that requires a reasonable accommodation\, contact the Judaic Studies office at 734-763-9047 at least two weeks prior to the event.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Controlled Transfer of Electronic Wavepacket Motion Between Distant Atoms
DESCRIPTION:The establishment\, observation\, and potential control of correlated multi-electron dynamics is a complex problem of interest across disciplines with numerous applications in a variety of contexts\, from femtosecond interatomic Coulomb decay and attosecond charge migration within small molecules\, to energy transfer in photosynthetic systems\, to quantum control of few- and many-body systems\, and quantum information processing. The extreme sensitivity of Rydberg atoms to electric fields\, including those produced by neighboring atoms\, makes them superb candidates for studying such phenomena. In a quantum analogy to classical far-field radio transmission from a source to receiver antenna\, we have transferred electronic wavepacket motion established within Rydberg atoms in a dilute nearly-frozen gas to neighboring Rydberg atoms. The transfer is enabled by electron correlations resulting from electric field-controlled\, atom-atom couplings and relies on the use of both cold atom and ultrafast techniques. \n

SUMMARY:Other:Electrochemical sensors and scanning electrochemical sensors (SECM): a new tool to study biomaterials and associated biofilms
DESCRIPTION:                                                                         My research program at Oregon State University is involved in developing new electrochemical sensors to study microbial metabolism at high spatial and temporal resolution. We are specifically interested in studying bacterial metabolic interactions with other bacterial species\, biomaterials\,\nand the immediate microenvironment surrounding the bacteria. We have developed micron-sized Ca2+\, pH\, H2O2\, NH4+ and lactate sensors to be used as a chemical probe in scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) to quantitatively map the local chemical environment produced by live dental biofilms and their effects on the integrity of the dental composites. In\naddition\, we are also involved in synthesizing a variety of glucose-modified dendron molecules to construct bacterial microhabitat using 3D hydrogel printing to study the bacterial metabolic interactions between different bacterial species.                                                                                                               \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nDipankar Koley (Oregon State University)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Explodity: Sound\, Image\, and Word in Russian Futurist Book Art
DESCRIPTION:The product of close collaborations between poets and painters\, the Russian artists’ books created between 1910 and 1915 are like no others. Taking her new book\, Explodity\, as a launching point\, Nancy Perloff will argue that Futurist books were meant to be read\, looked at\, and listened to.  The advanced abstraction of Kazimir Malevich offers a crucial context for manifestos by avant-garde poets Velimir Khlebnikov and Alexei Kruchenykh that dismissed referentiality and advocated the new poetic and phonic language of zaum (beyond the mind).  Futurist and Formalist theory provide the basis for close readings of word-image-sound interplay in several Futurist books\, including Pomada (Pomade) and Mirskontsa (Worldbackwards). The talk will conclude by considering the wide-ranging legacy of these works in the midcentury global movement of sound and concrete poetry.\n\nwww.getty.edu/ZaumPoetry\n(an interactive website which exemplifies the interplay of word-image-sound in Futurist book art through audio recordings\, Russian transliterations\, and English translations of 10 poems\, presented directly within the pages of the artists’ books)\n\nNancy Perloff (Ph.D. University of Michigan) is curator of modern and contemporary collections at the Getty Research Institute (GRI). Trained as a musicologist and as an art historian\, she pursues scholarship on the Russian avant-garde\, European modernism\, and the relationship between music and the visual arts. Her exhibitions at the GRI include Monuments of the Future: Designs by El Lissitzky (1998–99)\; Sea Tails: A Video Collaboration (2004)\; Tango with Cows: Book Art of the Russian Avant-Garde\, 1910–1917 (2008–9)\; and she led the curatorial team for World War I: War of Images\, Images of War (2014). Perloff is the author of Art and the Everyday: Popular Entertainment and the Circle of Erik Satie (Oxford\, 1991) and coeditor\, with Brian M. Reed\, of Situating El Lissitzky: Vitebsk\, Berlin\, Moscow (Getty\, 2003).   She has written and lectured widely on avant-garde composers such as John Cage and David Tudor.  Most recently\, she published Explodity: Sound\, Image\, and Word in Russian Futurist Book Art (Getty\, 2016).  Her exhibition\, Concrete Poetry: Words and Sounds in Graphic Space\, was on view at the GRI from March 28 – July 30\, 2017.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Justice Albie Sachs: Getting to Know Nelson Mandela
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for the 2018 William W. Bishop Lecture in International Law: Getting to Know Nelson Mandela\, to be presented by Justice Albie Sachs\, formerly of the South African Constitutional Court. \n\nThis lecture is free and open to the public. \n\nJustice Albie Sachs has devoted his life to the defense of human rights\, both in his home country of South Africa and throughout the world. As a young attorney\, Justice Sachs defended people charged under the racist statutes and repressive security laws of apartheid. Forced into exile in 1966\, he worked with the African National Congress from abroad\, where his criticism of apartheid made him the victim of a car bombing in Mozambique in 1988. Justice Sachs lost an arm and the sight of one eye in the attack\, but recovered and returned to South Africa as a member of the Constitutional Committee to assist South Africa’s transition into a constitutional democracy. He was later appointed by President Nelson Mandela to serve on the South African Constitutional Court. \n\nThe Bishop Lecture was established by the friends and family of Professor Bishop following his death in 1987.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Writing Roman History in China in the First Half of the Twentieth Century
DESCRIPTION:In the first half of the twentieth-century\, the writing of Roman History in a semi-independent China was dominated by the Chinese agenda of national revival and modernization rather than a scholarly desire to investigate Roman history for its own sake. This\, however\, did not detract from the complexity with which the Chinese reformists\, thinkers\, and writers engaged with Rome. It is precisely this complexity that this paper will try to unfold. In particular\, Ancient Rome\, as a negative exemplum\, loomed large in the Chinese discourses on a range of key issues including the role of religion in nation building\, the (re)formation of \"national character\"\, and the relationship between unification/centralization and local autonomy. To a great extent\, Ancient Rome functioned as a site where evaluation of China’s past\, concern over China’s fate\, search for historical lessons\, and a close attention to contemporary European affairs and their historical precedents were intricately coalesced.\n\nJinyu Liu is Associate Professor of Classical Studies at DePauw University\, and also Distinguished Guest Professor at Shanghai Normal University (2014-2020). Her research interests include social relations in Roman cities\, the non-elite in the Roman Empire\, Latin epigraphy\, the reception of Graeco-Roman classics in China\, as well as translating classical texts in a global context. As the Principal Investigator of “Translating the Complete Corpus of Ovid’s Poetry into Chinese with Commentaries\"\, a multi-year project sponsored by a Chinese National Social Science Foundation Major Grant (2015-2020)\, she is collaborating with more than a dozen scholars from four countries to translate the complete works of Ovid (43 BCE-17 CE)\, arguably the most popular poet of ancient Rome\, into Chinese for the first time.
