SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Photography into Fiber: ArtPrize Winner
DESCRIPTION:Steve and Ann Loveless both grew up in northwestern lower Michigan and love the nature and beauty of the outdoors. Steve is a fine art photographer\, and Ann is a textile artist. After exhibiting some of Ann’s textile designs inspired by Steve’s photography\, they had the idea to create works that morph a photograph into a textile. One aspect of the process is that it can trick the viewer into questioning what they are seeing and invite them to engage more with the work. Northwood Awakening\, a 25 by 5 foot piece that was the ArtPrize 2015 Public Vote Grand Prize winner\, will be on display.

DESCRIPTION:Cat Crotchett’s current work combines elements of eastern and western cultural patterns in fragments that together form something different than their individual parts. These images represent an intersection of information as well as ideas of cultural appropriation\, assimilation\, fragmentation and alteration. Crotchett uses wax because it is relevant to both eastern and early western artistic cultures. A professional artist for over 30 years\, Crotchett has exhibited nationally and internationally. She is a professor at Western Michigan University and lives in Kalamazoo\, Michigan.

DESCRIPTION:Professional artist and instructor Gregory Potter believes that anyone can develop artistic skill if they put the work into it. Potter’s teaching helps with that\, but he also shows his paintings in art fairs\, galleries and even Army barrack walls\, anywhere people enjoy art and laughing out loud. A flightless bird\, his flamingo isn’t deep or subversive\, but it does have a top hat and is riding on the back of a zebra that is standing in a nest powered by a propeller. Nothing unusual for a man who served four tours in the Middle East. Working in his home gallery in Franklin\, Indiana\, he is amused as viewers sometimes see his animals as “above all the B.S.” or “leaving without knowing where [they’re] going.”

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Majestic | Dream: A Selection of Color Woodcuts
DESCRIPTION:The Confucius Institute at U-M proudly presents “Majestic | Dream\,” a solo exhibition by Endi Poskovic\, Professor of Art at the Penny W. Stamps School of Arts and Design\, University of Michigan. Professor Poskovic’s creative practice considers a range of technologies as a way to explore certain characteristics of printed image: translation\, multiplicity\, seriality. Through his works\, Professor Poskovic seeks to construct representations that suggest broader themes of displacement\, exile\, memory and reconciliation. A frequent visitor to China\, Endi Poskovic\, Professor of Art at the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, is a great admirer of Chinese and Asian visual and material arts. Poskovic’s work in woodblock relief printmedia reflects his deep fascination and a lasting involvement with Chinese intellectual and creative communities. To celebrate this long and fruitful engagement as a bridge between artistic China and the University of Michigan\, CIUM presents this exhibition.\n\nOver the course of years\, Poskovic has produced several major series of multi-plate color woodcut prints utilizing both established and non-traditional approaches frequently combining analog carving methods with laser engraving from bit-map data files. For this Confucius Institute sponsored exhibition\, Poskovic presents an intimate selection of color woodcuts from two series of works\, “Majestic” and “Dream”\, focusing on landscape imagery informed by real and imaginary topographies\, including several works which are based on his sketches drawn in China. Merging visual image with text\, Poskovic’s “Majestic Series” shifts the reading of the woodcut by providing an unexpected new context and forcing the viewer to continually reinterpret. In “Dream Series”\, Poskovic explores primitive strategies of early cinema to investigate personal and social histories\, shifting cultural identities\, environmental transformation\, migration and alienation.\n\nEndi Poskovic was educated in Yugoslavia\, Norway\, and the United States. His graphic works have been exhibited worldwide and have brought him many notable awards and honors\, including grants and fellowships from the Guggenheim Memorial Foundation\, the United States Fulbright Commission\, the Rockefeller Foundation\, the Pollock-Krasner Foundation\, the Norwegian Government\, the Camargo Foundation\, the Flemish Ministry of Culture\, the New York State Council on the Arts\, and the Art Matters Foundation\, among others. Museum collections which hold works by the artist include the Philadelphia Museum of Art\, the Harvard University Fogg Art Museum\, Detroit Institute of Arts\, Jincheon Art Museum\, South Korea and others.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Reforming the Word: Martin Luther in Context
DESCRIPTION:Highlighting manuscripts and early printed books from the Special Collections Library\, the exhibit commemorates the 500th anniversary of a pivotal transformation in world history. In 1517\, Martin Luther\, a professor of theology and a monk\, published his scathing critique of indulgences\, a church practice that allowed Christians to buy off time from suffering for one’s sins in the afterlife.\n\nIssued in the provincial town of Wittenberg\, Luther's call for academic debate and reform unleashed a series of events that led to the break-up of Latin Christianity. The Reformations that followed forever altered the lives of those in early modern Europe and beyond.\n\nThe late medieval German lands teemed with innovation. Novel forms of piety emerged\, the demand for practical learning grew\, more universities competed for students\, and wealth from both trade and mining transformed social relations. The dissemination of texts and ideas on an industrial scale via the printing press reshaped communication\, knowledge\, and belief. In this context\, reform—the renewal of a lost standard of the past in the present—became a battle-cry for religious\, economic\, and political change.\n\nAudubon Room hours: Monday-Friday 8:30am-6:00pm\, Saturday 10:00am-6:00pm\, Sunday 1:00-6:00pm

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gloss: Modeling Beauty
DESCRIPTION:Focusing on the prominent role of women as the subject of photography\, GLOSS: Modeling Beauty explores the shifting ideals of female beauty that pervade European and American visual culture from the 1920s to today. The exhibition features images of sleek and poised female models and celebrities destined for the glossy pages of fashion magazines and catalogs by leading photographers such as Edward Steichen\, Philippe Halsman\, Helmut Newton\, Andy Warhol\, and Guy Bourdin. Outside of commercial advertising practice\, documentary photographers Elliott Erwitt\, Joel Meyerowitz\, and Ralph Gibson portray candid images of fashionable women on city streets and mannequins in shop windows\, resulting in intriguing juxtapositions of haute couture and everyday life. And\nartists James Van Der Zee\, Eduardo Paolozzi\, and Nikki S. Lee employ the visual strategies of traditional fashion photography\, while offering alternative narratives to mainstream notions of female beauty.\n\nLead support for Gloss: Modeling Beauty is provided by Bank of America and Merrill Lynch. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Moving Image: Portraiture
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Portraiture presents a contemporary spin on traditional notions of portraiture. In the video Towards An Architect\, Hannu Karjalainen portrays a fictional architect who is experiencing the response of people living in the structures he designed. Daniel Rozin’s Mirror No. 10 is driven by software\, written by the artist\, that generates a real-time reflection of the environment the screen is displayed in—specifically a live sketch of the viewer approaching the frame. Mesocosm (Northumberland\, UK) is an algorithmic work by Marina Zurkow that depicts the passage of time on the moors of Northeast England.\n\nMoving Image: Portraiture is the third of three exhibitions drawn from the collection of the Borusan Contemporary\, Istanbul\, which since 2011 has been focused on media arts. The works in this series address both formal concerns and conceptual topics\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\n\nLead support for Moving Image: Portraiture is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa
DESCRIPTION:Before colonization\, complex hierarchical societies flourished in Central and West Africa. At their summits were a select few—kings and chiefs whose authority was derived from their direct connection to powerful ancestors and predecessors. These rulers were wrapped in expensive textiles or costly furs\, and covered in beads and precious metals\, materials that not only signaled their extraordinary status\, but were also intended to safely contain the great power they wielded. The famous minkisi (meaning “power figure”) sculptures of Central Africa were similarly activated through the addition of charged materials. Textiles\, animal skin\, metal\, and beads allowed the lifeless wooden carvings to be activated by local spiritual leaders in order to communicate with the realm of the ancestors and spirits. This exhibition explores the parallels between the adornment of the king’s physical body and minkisi. Drawing on works from UMMA’s collection and several loans\, the exhibition demonstrates how authority was expressed and power contained across a range of historical cultures in Nigeria\, Ghana\, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Cameroon.\n\nLead support for Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors—Part II: Abstraction
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. \n\nThis two-part exhibition presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. Part II: Abstraction\, on view in the A. Alfred Taubman Gallery July 1 through October 29\, showcases modern and contemporary art by Pablo Picasso\, Alberto Giacometti\,\nLouise Nevelson\, Christo\, Lorna Simpson\, José Parlá\, and Do Ho Su\, among others. It also features a fifth-century Korean roof end tile and an Amish quilt\, as well as a work by an Inuit master—thus inviting visitors to explore the pleasures of abstraction across a wide range of media\, eras\, and genres. UMMA extends Part II: Abstraction into the Irving Stenn\, Jr. Family Gallery from August 19 through November 26\, 2017\, with the site-specific installation of Random International’s LED-light and motion-sensing dynamic sculpture\, Swarm Study / II. Victors for Art offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University of Michigan’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and distinguished Stamps School of Art and Design professor Jim Cogswell has been invited to create a series of public window installations at the University of Michigan Museum of Art and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology. For this visionary project\, the artist will adhere a procession of vivid images to the glass walls of the museums in a rhythmically evocative narrative of reassembled fragments from a diverse range of artworks in both museums’ permanent collections. By leveraging the buildings’ unique architecture\, the artist expands our understanding of a museum as a cultural repository and highlights the significant role of these institutions in the life of the campus community. UMMA docents will introduce the juxtaposed images and help connect the viewer to the origins and meaning of objects and their power to shape knowledge\, memory\, and identity.\n\nLead support for Cosmogonic Tattoos is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost. Additional support for the artist's project is provided by the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.\n\nVisit umma.umich.edu/events to learn more!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Photography into Fiber: ArtPrize Winner
DESCRIPTION:Steve and Ann Loveless both grew up in northwestern lower Michigan and love the nature and beauty of the outdoors. Steve is a fine art photographer\, and Ann is a textile artist. After exhibiting some of Ann’s textile designs inspired by Steve’s photography\, they had the idea to create works that morph a photograph into a textile. One aspect of the process is that it can trick the viewer into questioning what they are seeing and invite them to engage more with the work. Northwood Awakening\, a 25 by 5 foot piece that was the ArtPrize 2015 Public Vote Grand Prize winner\, will be on display.

DESCRIPTION:Professional artist and instructor Gregory Potter believes that anyone can develop artistic skill if they put the work into it. Potter’s teaching helps with that\, but he also shows his paintings in art fairs\, galleries and even Army barrack walls\, anywhere people enjoy art and laughing out loud. A flightless bird\, his flamingo isn’t deep or subversive\, but it does have a top hat and is riding on the back of a zebra that is standing in a nest powered by a propeller. Nothing unusual for a man who served four tours in the Middle East. Working in his home gallery in Franklin\, Indiana\, he is amused as viewers sometimes see his animals as “above all the B.S.” or “leaving without knowing where [they’re] going.”

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Reforming the Word: Martin Luther in Context
DESCRIPTION:Highlighting manuscripts and early printed books from the Special Collections Library\, the exhibit commemorates the 500th anniversary of a pivotal transformation in world history. In 1517\, Martin Luther\, a professor of theology and a monk\, published his scathing critique of indulgences\, a church practice that allowed Christians to buy off time from suffering for one’s sins in the afterlife.\n\nIssued in the provincial town of Wittenberg\, Luther's call for academic debate and reform unleashed a series of events that led to the break-up of Latin Christianity. The Reformations that followed forever altered the lives of those in early modern Europe and beyond.\n\nThe late medieval German lands teemed with innovation. Novel forms of piety emerged\, the demand for practical learning grew\, more universities competed for students\, and wealth from both trade and mining transformed social relations. The dissemination of texts and ideas on an industrial scale via the printing press reshaped communication\, knowledge\, and belief. In this context\, reform—the renewal of a lost standard of the past in the present—became a battle-cry for religious\, economic\, and political change.\n\nAudubon Room hours: Monday-Friday 8:30am-6:00pm\, Saturday 10:00am-6:00pm\, Sunday 1:00-6:00pm

DESCRIPTION:Srijan will discuss findings from the Intern Health Study\, a longitudinal cohort study that assesses stress and mood in training physicians (interns)\, enrolling 3\,000 participants from 60+ institutions in the U.S. and China each year. Depression and suicide risk increase dramatically with the start of physician training. Srijan will describe work from the study elucidating how genetic\, psychological and workplace factors affect whether stress leads to depression and suicide risk. Further\, he will discuss how stress gets “under the skin” to affect function of the HPA\, vascular and telomere systems.

SUMMARY:Other:Next-Generation Bioelectronic Medicines: Crossing the Valley of Death
DESCRIPTION:BME welcomes Faculty Candidate\nKip A. Ludwig\, Ph.D.\nAssociate Director of Mayo Neural Engineering Laboratories\nMayo Clinic Hospital\, Rochester MN\n \nMonday\, Oct. 30\, 2017\n9:00 – 10:00 a.m.\n1123 LBME\n \n“Next-Generation Bioelectronic Medicines: Crossing the Valley of Death”\n \nABSTRACT:   Bioelectronic Medicine is an emerging field that capitalizes on minimally-invasive technology to stimulate the autonomic nervous system in order to evoke therapeutic biomolecular changes at the end-organ. In this seminar Dr. Kip Ludwig will discuss his unique experience spanning industry\, government\, and academia in translating Bioelectronic Medicines from initial proof-of-concept on the bench to commercially approved clinical therapies. Based on this experience he will describe his vision for establishing ‘parallel translation’ to accelerate the integration of new Bioelectronic Medicines into routine clinical practice. Parallel translation is predicated on 1) using bleeding-edge high-resolution technologies in small animal models to provide mechanistic understanding of neuromodulation therapies\, 2) conducting experiments in high-throughput large animal models to better understand design issues of anatomical scale that uniquely impact neuromodulation therapies and 3) taking advantage of existing human surgical opportunities that provide access to the nervous system to quickly and safely obtain human data. Performing these three steps ‘in parallel’ is required to more efficiently cross the proverbial ‘valley of death’ for device translation\, by simultaneously addressing key unknowns in the business case necessary to obtain funding for advanced clinical trials.\nDr. Ludwig currently serves as the Associate Director of the Mayo Neural Engineering Laboratories (NEL) and leads the Bioelectronic Medicines Laboratory within the NEL.  Prior to Mayo Dr. Ludwig served as the Program Director for Neural Engineering at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). He co-led the NIH CREATE Devices translational program\, led the NIH translational programs under the White House BRAIN Initiative\, and led a trans-NIH planning team in developing the ~250 million dollar SPARC Program to stimulate advances in neuromodulation therapies for organ systems. Dr. Ludwig also worked in the neuromodulation industry as a research scientist where he conceived\, developed and demonstrated the chronic efficacy of a next-generation minimally-invasive stimulation device to treat hypertension and heart failure. Through his industry work he oversaw Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) and non-GLPstudies enabling clinical trials in Europe and the United States\, as well as participated in the protocol development and execution of those trials. Dr. Ludwig’s device is now approved for sale in seven countries and has progressed to a Phase III ‘Pivotal’ trial in the United States for FDA approval. Based on the European data\, his electrode concept was awarded LifeScience Alley’s ‘Life-Saving Breakthrough of the Year’ in 2014.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Moving Image: Portraiture
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Portraiture presents a contemporary spin on traditional notions of portraiture. In the video Towards An Architect\, Hannu Karjalainen portrays a fictional architect who is experiencing the response of people living in the structures he designed. Daniel Rozin’s Mirror No. 10 is driven by software\, written by the artist\, that generates a real-time reflection of the environment the screen is displayed in—specifically a live sketch of the viewer approaching the frame. Mesocosm (Northumberland\, UK) is an algorithmic work by Marina Zurkow that depicts the passage of time on the moors of Northeast England.\n\nMoving Image: Portraiture is the third of three exhibitions drawn from the collection of the Borusan Contemporary\, Istanbul\, which since 2011 has been focused on media arts. The works in this series address both formal concerns and conceptual topics\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\n\nLead support for Moving Image: Portraiture is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa
DESCRIPTION:Before colonization\, complex hierarchical societies flourished in Central and West Africa. At their summits were a select few—kings and chiefs whose authority was derived from their direct connection to powerful ancestors and predecessors. These rulers were wrapped in expensive textiles or costly furs\, and covered in beads and precious metals\, materials that not only signaled their extraordinary status\, but were also intended to safely contain the great power they wielded. The famous minkisi (meaning “power figure”) sculptures of Central Africa were similarly activated through the addition of charged materials. Textiles\, animal skin\, metal\, and beads allowed the lifeless wooden carvings to be activated by local spiritual leaders in order to communicate with the realm of the ancestors and spirits. This exhibition explores the parallels between the adornment of the king’s physical body and minkisi. Drawing on works from UMMA’s collection and several loans\, the exhibition demonstrates how authority was expressed and power contained across a range of historical cultures in Nigeria\, Ghana\, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Cameroon.\n\nLead support for Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Developmental Area Brown Bag -
DESCRIPTION:Vaness Cox\nTitle: Raunchy or Respectable? How Black Adults’ Consumption of Popular Media Affects their Perceptions of Women and Mothers\n\nAbstract: Although African Americans are heavy media consumers\, we know little of how media content shapes their beliefs about women and women’s roles. Therefore\, the goal of this study was to investigate the associations between consumption of popular media and idealistic beliefs about women and motherhood. Participants were 484 Black adults who completed a survey that assessed exposure to 50 reality TV programs\, perceived realism of reality TV\, social media use\, identification with 12 conventional or sexual-presenting celebrity mothers\, endorsement of the heterosexual script\, and endorsement of stereotypical beliefs about women and mothers. The results highlight the importance of assessing different forms of media consumption. \n\nBio: Vaness Cox is a third-year doctoral student in Developmental Psychology. Before beginning her doctoral studies\, she attended the University of Missouri\, Columbia where she earned degrees in Sociology and Psychology\, with a minor in Black Studies. Currently\, her research involves understanding how Black women are portrayed in the media and how these portrayals relate to Black adolescents’ and young adults’ perceptions of Black women. She is particularly interested in the portrayals and perceptions of Black mothers. \n\nDanielle Labotka\nTitle: Children’s Understanding of Foreigner Talk and Use of Cues in Identifying Foreigner Talk\n\nAbstract: Whenever a person addresses their interlocutor\, they adjust their style of speech according to whom they are talking and in what context. Such changes in speech associated with particular addressees or contexts are known as registers. Although children’s use of certain registers such as Baby Talk is well-documented\, little is known regarding when and how children expect non-native speakers to receive a particular register of address known as Foreigner Talk. In Study 1\, 4-8-year-old children and adults heard a series of registers –Foreigner Talk\, Baby Talk\, Peer Talk\, and Teacher Talk– and were asked to choose the corresponding target addressee. In Study 2\, 5-8-year-old children and adults participated in a register match task in which three cues were manipulated: Language\, Appearance\, and Origin. Together\, the findings of these studies speak to children’s developing understanding of Foreigner Talk and its addressees. \n\nBio: Danielle Labotka is a third year PhD candidate in Developmental Psychology working with Susan Gelman and Henry Wellman. She received her B.A. in Comparative Human Development from the University of Chicago where she worked in the Development of Social Cognition Lab studying the role of language experience in children’s understanding of pragmatics and in the Infant Learning and Development Lab assisting with cross-cultural research. Her recent work explores how communicative interactions between native and non-native speakers may impact children’s reasoning about non-native speakers.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Characterizing and Quantifying Public Conversations Online
DESCRIPTION:Online public conversations\, which feature open participation and interactions between strangers\, are increasing in their frequency and societal importance. Digital platforms such as Facebook\, Twitter\, and Reddit face challenges in improving these conversations\, from designing user interfaces to stimulating participation and moderating or prioritizing content. Perhaps the most important challenge is deciding which kinds of conversations are most valuable to people and how the value generated can be practically measured at large scale and across a variety of use-cases.\n\nIn this talk Facebook social scientist Sean Taylor will present a range of approaches to measuring and characterizing online public conversations. In the course of product research at Facebook\, they have applied machine learning\, human annotation\, surveys\, network analysis\, and ethnographic research in order to gain a deeper understanding of the space of public conversations and to try to pin down how and when they create value for the participants. He discusses how ongoing advancements in measurement technology have helped improve Facebook products\, and what they have learned about human behavior in the process of studying these social systems.\n\nAbout the Speaker: Sean J. Taylor is a computational social scientist on Facebook’s Data Science team.  Prior to Facebook\, he earned his PhD in Information Systems from NYU’s Stern School of Business.  He specializes in using machine learning methods and randomized experiments for measurement\, prediction\, and policy decisions.  Sean’s research ranges from studying online social influence\, viral marketing\, and social networks to measuring how sports fans behave and the impact of data science on decision making in organizations.  He is also an avid engineer who enjoys putting academic research into practice by building tools and services like new kinds of prediction markets and automated forecasting systems.\n\n***\nThe Social\, Behavioral and Experimental Economics lecture series is sponsored by the School of Information\, the Ross School of Business and the Department of Economics. Speakers from U.S. and international universities present their research at weekly seminars during the 2017-2018 academic year.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | From Muon Colliders Toward an Accelerator-Driven Subcritical Reactor
DESCRIPTION:Subcriticial nuclear reactors have been considered an alternative to conventional nuclear reactors for years. Development and operation of high-power SRF particle accelerators at two US national laboratories allows us to consider a less-expensive nuclear reactor that operates without the need for a critical core\, fuel enrichment\, or reprocessing. \n \nI'll describe a reactor that without redesign will burn spent nuclear fuel\, natural uranium\, thorium\, or surplus weapons material. I’ll talk about my company\, Muons\, Inc.\, and our history as an SBIR company devoted to a design of a future particle accelerator\, the Muon Collder\, and how innovations that came out of those R&D efforts have helped shape our vision of a new\, sustainable\, zero carbon footprint energy source to replace our current fossil fuel regime.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Photography into Fiber: ArtPrize Winner
DESCRIPTION:Steve and Ann Loveless both grew up in northwestern lower Michigan and love the nature and beauty of the outdoors. Steve is a fine art photographer\, and Ann is a textile artist. After exhibiting some of Ann’s textile designs inspired by Steve’s photography\, they had the idea to create works that morph a photograph into a textile. One aspect of the process is that it can trick the viewer into questioning what they are seeing and invite them to engage more with the work. Northwood Awakening\, a 25 by 5 foot piece that was the ArtPrize 2015 Public Vote Grand Prize winner\, will be on display.

DESCRIPTION:Cat Crotchett’s current work combines elements of eastern and western cultural patterns in fragments that together form something different than their individual parts.

She is a professor at Western Michigan University and lives in Kalamazoo\, Michigan.

DESCRIPTION:Professional artist and instructor Gregory Potter believes that anyone can develop artistic skill if they put the work into it. Potter’s teaching helps with that\, but he also shows his paintings in art fairs\, galleries and even Army barrack walls\, anywhere people enjoy art and laughing out loud. A flightless bird\, his flamingo isn’t deep or subversive\, but it does have a top hat and is riding on the back of a zebra that is standing in a nest powered by a propeller. Nothing unusual for a man who served four tours in the Middle East. Working in his home gallery in Franklin\, Indiana\, he is amused as viewers sometimes see his animals as “above all the B.S.” or “leaving without knowing where [they’re] going.”

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Reforming the Word: Martin Luther in Context
DESCRIPTION:Highlighting manuscripts and early printed books from the Special Collections Library\, the exhibit commemorates the 500th anniversary of a pivotal transformation in world history. In 1517\, Martin Luther\, a professor of theology and a monk\, published his scathing critique of indulgences\, a church practice that allowed Christians to buy off time from suffering for one’s sins in the afterlife.\n\nIssued in the provincial town of Wittenberg\, Luther's call for academic debate and reform unleashed a series of events that led to the break-up of Latin Christianity. The Reformations that followed forever altered the lives of those in early modern Europe and beyond.\n\nThe late medieval German lands teemed with innovation. Novel forms of piety emerged\, the demand for practical learning grew\, more universities competed for students\, and wealth from both trade and mining transformed social relations. The dissemination of texts and ideas on an industrial scale via the printing press reshaped communication\, knowledge\, and belief. In this context\, reform—the renewal of a lost standard of the past in the present—became a battle-cry for religious\, economic\, and political change.\n\nAudubon Room hours: Monday-Friday 8:30am-6:00pm\, Saturday 10:00am-6:00pm\, Sunday 1:00-6:00pm

DESCRIPTION:Focusing on the prominent role of women as the subject of photography\, GLOSS: Modeling Beauty explores the shifting ideals of female beauty that pervade European and American visual culture from the 1920s to today. The exhibition features images of sleek and poised female models and celebrities destined for the glossy pages of fashion magazines and catalogs by leading photographers such as Edward Steichen\, Philippe Halsman\, Helmut Newton\, Andy Warhol\, and Guy Bourdin. Outside of commercial advertising practice\, documentary photographers Elliott Erwitt\, Joel Meyerowitz\, and Ralph Gibson portray candid images of fashionable women on city streets and mannequins in shop windows\, resulting in intriguing juxtapositions of haute couture and everyday life. And\nartists James Van Der Zee\, Eduardo Paolozzi\, and Nikki S. Lee employ the visual strategies of traditional fashion photography\, while offering alternative narratives to mainstream notions of female beauty.\n\nLead support for Gloss: Modeling Beauty is provided by Bank of America and Merrill Lynch. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Moving Image: Portraiture
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Portraiture presents a contemporary spin on traditional notions of portraiture. In the video Towards An Architect\, Hannu Karjalainen portrays a fictional architect who is experiencing the response of people living in the structures he designed. Daniel Rozin’s Mirror No. 10 is driven by software\, written by the artist\, that generates a real-time reflection of the environment the screen is displayed in—specifically a live sketch of the viewer approaching the frame. Mesocosm (Northumberland\, UK) is an algorithmic work by Marina Zurkow that depicts the passage of time on the moors of Northeast England.\n\nMoving Image: Portraiture is the third of three exhibitions drawn from the collection of the Borusan Contemporary\, Istanbul\, which since 2011 has been focused on media arts. The works in this series address both formal concerns and conceptual topics\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\n\nLead support for Moving Image: Portraiture is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa
DESCRIPTION:Before colonization\, complex hierarchical societies flourished in Central and West Africa. At their summits were a select few—kings and chiefs whose authority was derived from their direct connection to powerful ancestors and predecessors. These rulers were wrapped in expensive textiles or costly furs\, and covered in beads and precious metals\, materials that not only signaled their extraordinary status\, but were also intended to safely contain the great power they wielded. The famous minkisi (meaning “power figure”) sculptures of Central Africa were similarly activated through the addition of charged materials. Textiles\, animal skin\, metal\, and beads allowed the lifeless wooden carvings to be activated by local spiritual leaders in order to communicate with the realm of the ancestors and spirits. This exhibition explores the parallels between the adornment of the king’s physical body and minkisi. Drawing on works from UMMA’s collection and several loans\, the exhibition demonstrates how authority was expressed and power contained across a range of historical cultures in Nigeria\, Ghana\, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Cameroon.\n\nLead support for Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Health\, History\, Demography & Development (H2D2)
DESCRIPTION:Mattan Alalouf\nTitle: The Benefits of Medical Care for the Marginal Patient: Evidence from Diagnosis Cutoffs\n\nAbstract\nAbstract will be released soon.\n\nShuqiao Sun\nTitle: Birth Order and Unwanted Fertility (with Wanchuan Lin and Juan Pantano)\n\nAbstract\nThis paper analyzes the relationship between birth order and unwanted fertility. A large literature documents birth order effects in various outcomes with children born later usually faring worse than earlier-born siblings. We document that children higher in the birth order are more likely to be unwanted\, in the sense that they were conceived at a time in which the family was not planning to have additional children. A separate literature documents negative outcomes associated with being an unwanted child. We connect the two literatures and show that part of the documented birth order effects in completed education and employment may reflect this increasing prevalence of unwanted children at higher parities and the disruption they imply in parental plans for optimal investment in their children.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach Out Series: The Internet and You
DESCRIPTION:Can the Internet be controlled? Should it be? How does the history of the Internet help predict what we should expect for its future? Is net neutrality a lost cause or something worth fighting for? The Internet continues to surprise us as a force for change and disruption in our daily lives and society at large. While it seems as though these significant disruptions are a recent phenomena\, in reality we have seen these profound societal disruptions since the 1990s. In this Teach-Out\, participants will learn how the Internet has affected human communication\, the sharing and discovery of information\, and social interactions. Discussions on current trends and potential ways the Internet will continue to affect society will also be explored\, as well as how learners can empower their own productivity and impact in the ever-evolving landscape of the Internet.\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.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Bioscience Talk
DESCRIPTION:Talk Title: Cognitive control of emotion as a choice\, a tool\, and a social exchange\n\nWhere do choices to control emotion come from\, and what are their consequences for long-term trajectories of experience and behavior? I will present recent work that uses measures of brain processes related to affect\, control\, and integrative value to predict i) lab-based choices to regulate negative emotion\, and ii) durable change in health-relevant attitudes and behavior. In the third part of my talk\, I will iii) present work that examines socially-interactive attempts to control emotion\, providing evidence that their impact depends on interpersonal synchrony reflective of shared understanding. Overall\, I will discuss how connecting neural data with real-world affective and behavioral outcomes can deepen our mechanistic understanding of how emotion can be controlled and aid in the development of novel interventions.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Raman Spectroscopy Studies of Charge Order in Metallic La-doped Sr3Ir2O7
DESCRIPTION:Charge order has been universally observed in underdoped copper-oxide based high-Tc superconductors (cuprates) and shown to compete with superconductivity. In a strong spin orbit coupled cuprate analogue system\, layered perovskite iridium oxides (iridates)\, Mott insulating\, pseudogap and d-wave gap behaviors have been discovered in the single layer variant Sr2IrO4\, while metal insulator transition and charge-order like Fermi surface instability has only been seen in the bilayer counterpart Sr3Ir2O7. However\, a full symmetry characterization on the charge order in Sr3Ir2O7 is yet missing\, making its analogy to the charge order in cuprates incomplete. In this talk\, I will show that an amplitude mode of charge order at ~25cm-1 is detected in the metallic La-doped Sr3Ir2O7 at temperatures below ~ 200K by using Raman spectroscopy\, which is reminiscent of that observed in cuprates. I will further show that this charge order has two-fold rotational symmetry\, breaking the four-fold one of the crystal lattice\, which is the same as the unidirectional charge order in cuprates does. Finally\, I will discuss the weak coupling between the charge order and the lattice by tracking the phonon evolution upon the emergence of the charge order. \n\n

SUMMARY:Other:Synthetic Strategies to Optimize Photophysical and Photoredox Properties of Organometallic Complexes
DESCRIPTION:                        Bis-cyclometalated iridium complexes are well-known for their efficient triplet-state luminescence and excited-state redox chemistry. The Teets group has advanced the idea that the ancillary ligand(s) in these compounds can substantially alter the redox and photophysical properties\, and this lecture highlights some work in this area. Postsynthetic modification strategies give rise to new structure types and have led to the discovery of efficient visible-light phosphors. Other ligand-design strategies produce compounds with efficient red or near-infrared phosphorescence\, as well as a class of potent photoreductants which outperform state-of-the-art photosensitizers in photoinduced electron-transfer reactions.                        \n                       \n                        \nThomas Teets (University of Houston)

DESCRIPTION:In approaching the ten Beethoven sonatas as a whole\, pianist Mimi Solomon and violinist Nicholas DiEugenio have commissioned the composers Allen Anderson\, David Garner\, Robert Honstein\, Jesse Jones\, and Tonia Ko to respond to specific pairings of sonatas in the context of various musical fabrics. Musical fabrics are comprised of the sonic threads that are woven together by a composer to produce a musical work’s aural tapestry. The commissioned composers will pull on a “loose thread” of Beethoven’s and reweave it.  \n\n\nPROGRAM: Allen Anderson- Linen\; D.K.

SUMMARY:Performance:The Milk Carton Kids
DESCRIPTION:Twice Grammy-nominated harmony duo The Milk Carton Kids released their third album\, Monterey\, to rave reviews\, garnering their second Grammy nomination\, this time for \"Best American Roots Performance\" for their song\, \"The City of Our Lady.\" A refreshing alternative to the foot-stomping grandeur of the so-called \"folk revival\,\" an understated virtuosity defines The Milk Carton Kids. Follwing their 2014 Grammy nomination for Best Folk Album for their previous release\, \"The Ash & Clay\,\" The Milk Carton Kids won Duo/Group of the Year at the Americana Music Awards in 2014. Their featured performances and interviews in T Bone Burnett & the Coen Brothers' concert documentary\, \"Another Day/Another Time\,\" were hailed as a highlight by press and fans alike. Cultural purveyors from Garrison Keillor to T Bone Burnett to Billy Bragg have hailed the duo's importance among a group of new folk bands\, both expanding and contradicting the rich tradition that precedes them. Yet while some of the band's many accolades reference a specific genre\, the duo quickly transcends those tags with clear inflections of jazz\, classical\, even the dark lyricism of modern \"alternative.\"

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Photography into Fiber: ArtPrize Winner
DESCRIPTION:Steve and Ann Loveless both grew up in northwestern lower Michigan and love the nature and beauty of the outdoors. Steve is a fine art photographer\, and Ann is a textile artist. After exhibiting some of Ann’s textile designs inspired by Steve’s photography\, they had the idea to create works that morph a photograph into a textile. One aspect of the process is that it can trick the viewer into questioning what they are seeing and invite them to engage more with the work. Northwood Awakening\, a 25 by 5 foot piece that was the ArtPrize 2015 Public Vote Grand Prize winner\, will be on display.

DESCRIPTION:Laura Cavanagh is a Michigan native who graduated summa cum laude from the University of Michigan in 2011 with a BFA in Art & Design and a minor in Art History. Cavanagh’s work consists primarily of cut paper and mixed media. Working with these materials allows her to approach her work in much the same way a sculptor does: adding to and cutting away from. Cavanagh finds the artistic process to be deeply meditative. Cavanagh lives and has her studio in a historic home in downtown Rochester\, Michigan.

DESCRIPTION:Cat Crotchett’s current work combines elements of eastern and western cultural patterns in fragments that together form something different than their individual parts. These images represent an intersection of information as well as ideas of cultural appropriation\, assimilation\, fragmentation and alteration. Crotchett uses wax because it is relevant to both eastern and early western artistic cultures. A professional artist for over 30 years\, Crotchett has exhibited nationally and internationally. She is a professor at Western Michigan University and lives in Kalamazoo\, Michigan.

DESCRIPTION:Professional artist and instructor Gregory Potter believes that anyone can develop artistic skill if they put the work into it. Potter’s teaching helps with that\, but he also shows his paintings in art fairs\, galleries and even Army barrack walls\, anywhere people enjoy art and laughing out loud. A flightless bird\, his flamingo isn’t deep or subversive\, but it does have a top hat and is riding on the back of a zebra that is standing in a nest powered by a propeller. Nothing unusual for a man who served four tours in the Middle East. Working in his home gallery in Franklin\, Indiana\, he is amused as viewers sometimes see his animals as “above all the B.S.” or “leaving without knowing where [they’re] going.”

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Reforming the Word: Martin Luther in Context
DESCRIPTION:Highlighting manuscripts and early printed books from the Special Collections Library\, the exhibit commemorates the 500th anniversary of a pivotal transformation in world history. In 1517\, Martin Luther\, a professor of theology and a monk\, published his scathing critique of indulgences\, a church practice that allowed Christians to buy off time from suffering for one’s sins in the afterlife.\n\nIssued in the provincial town of Wittenberg\, Luther's call for academic debate and reform unleashed a series of events that led to the break-up of Latin Christianity. The Reformations that followed forever altered the lives of those in early modern Europe and beyond.\n\nThe late medieval German lands teemed with innovation. Novel forms of piety emerged\, the demand for practical learning grew\, more universities competed for students\, and wealth from both trade and mining transformed social relations. The dissemination of texts and ideas on an industrial scale via the printing press reshaped communication\, knowledge\, and belief. In this context\, reform—the renewal of a lost standard of the past in the present—became a battle-cry for religious\, economic\, and political change.\n\nAudubon Room hours: Monday-Friday 8:30am-6:00pm\, Saturday 10:00am-6:00pm\, Sunday 1:00-6:00pm

SUMMARY:Presentation:Climate of Capitulation: An Insider’s Account of State Power in a Coal Nation
DESCRIPTION:About the lecture: \nVivian Thomson will offer an insider’s account of how power is wielded in environmental policy making at the state level. Drawing on her experience as a former member of Virginia’s State Air Pollution Control Board\, she narrates cases in Alexandria\, Wise\, and Roda that involved coal and air pollution. She identifies a “climate of capitulation” —a deeply rooted favoritism toward coal and electric utilities in state air pollution policies. Thomson links Virginia’s climate of capitulation with campaign finance patterns\, a state legislature that depends on outsiders for information and bill drafting\, and a political culture that tends toward inertia. She extends her analysis to fifteen other coal states and recommends reforms aimed at mitigating ingrained biases toward coal and electric utility interests. \nVivian E. Thomson writes and teaches about environmental policy and politics. She joined the University of Virginia faculty in 1997\, where she was Professor in the Department of Environmental Sciences and the Department of Politics. She directed\, and helped to design\, the popular\, selective BA program in Environmental Thought and Practice. Professor Thomson retired from teaching and program administration in July 2017. Her work is now entirely oriented toward research\, guest lectures\, and writing.\n\nProfessor Thomson’s research\, lecturing\, and grants have taken her to Denmark\, where she was a Fulbright Professor\, to Panama\, as Director of UVA’s Panama Initiative\, to Germany\, where she was a DAAD visiting scholar\, to Brazil\, where she has ongoing collaborations with colleagues at the University of São Paulo and the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro\, and to Italy. Her language skills include Brazilian Portuguese\, German\, and Spanish. Professor Thomson has also worked as a senior policy analyst and manager at the US EPA.\n\nSince 2009 she has published three sole-authored books. The latest is Climate of Capitulation: An Insider’s Account of State Power in a Coal Nation (MIT Press\, April 2017)\, a rare policymaker’s inside story that is based in part on Professor Thomson’s many years as member and vice chair of the Virginia State Air Pollution Control Board. Climate of Capitulation provides insights into the expression of power in state air pollution policymaking\, through first person\, policy participant case studies and analysis that generalizes those cases to fifteen other states. Readers and reviewers have called Climate of Capitulation a no-holds-barred exposé\, a must-read\, a page-turner\, and insightful\, provocative\, vivid\, and persuasive.\n\nSponsored by: University of Michigan Center for Local\, State\, and Urban Policy (CLOSUP)\n\nCo-Sponsors: University of Michigan Program in the Environment (PitE)\; University of Michigan School for Environment and Sustainability (SEAS)\; University of Michigan Environmental Law & Policy Program (ELPP)\; University of Michigan Energy Institute\; University of Michigan Graham Sustainability Institute\n\nFor more information visit www.closup.umich.edu or call 734-647-4091.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Why Are We Sending Innocent People to Prison?
DESCRIPTION:The discovery of DNA has not only made it possible to convict the guilty\, it has also resulted in discovering the awful errors of our criminal justice system. Almost 1\,800 people serving time in prison have been exonerated – they are in fact innocent of the crime. \n\nWho are they and how did this happen? Last year alone five people were exonerated while waiting on death row to be executed. \n\nThis 90 minute lecture for those 50 and above by the Hon. Donald E. Shelton\, who directs the Criminology and Criminal Justice Program at UM-Dearborn\, explores how these innocent people ended up in prison and what changes need to be made to prevent such miscarriages of justice in the future.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gloss: Modeling Beauty
DESCRIPTION:Focusing on the prominent role of women as the subject of photography\, GLOSS: Modeling Beauty explores the shifting ideals of female beauty that pervade European and American visual culture from the 1920s to today. The exhibition features images of sleek and poised female models and celebrities destined for the glossy pages of fashion magazines and catalogs by leading photographers such as Edward Steichen\, Philippe Halsman\, Helmut Newton\, Andy Warhol\, and Guy Bourdin. Outside of commercial advertising practice\, documentary photographers Elliott Erwitt\, Joel Meyerowitz\, and Ralph Gibson portray candid images of fashionable women on city streets and mannequins in shop windows\, resulting in intriguing juxtapositions of haute couture and everyday life. And\nartists James Van Der Zee\, Eduardo Paolozzi\, and Nikki S. Lee employ the visual strategies of traditional fashion photography\, while offering alternative narratives to mainstream notions of female beauty.\n\nLead support for Gloss: Modeling Beauty is provided by Bank of America and Merrill Lynch.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Moving Image: Portraiture
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Portraiture presents a contemporary spin on traditional notions of portraiture. In the video Towards An Architect\, Hannu Karjalainen portrays a fictional architect who is experiencing the response of people living in the structures he designed. Daniel Rozin’s Mirror No. 10 is driven by software\, written by the artist\, that generates a real-time reflection of the environment the screen is displayed in—specifically a live sketch of the viewer approaching the frame. Mesocosm (Northumberland\, UK) is an algorithmic work by Marina Zurkow that depicts the passage of time on the moors of Northeast England.\n\nMoving Image: Portraiture is the third of three exhibitions drawn from the collection of the Borusan Contemporary\, Istanbul\, which since 2011 has been focused on media arts. The works in this series address both formal concerns and conceptual topics\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\n\nLead support for Moving Image: Portraiture is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa
DESCRIPTION:Before colonization\, complex hierarchical societies flourished in Central and West Africa. At their summits were a select few—kings and chiefs whose authority was derived from their direct connection to powerful ancestors and predecessors. These rulers were wrapped in expensive textiles or costly furs\, and covered in beads and precious metals\, materials that not only signaled their extraordinary status\, but were also intended to safely contain the great power they wielded. The famous minkisi (meaning “power figure”) sculptures of Central Africa were similarly activated through the addition of charged materials. Textiles\, animal skin\, metal\, and beads allowed the lifeless wooden carvings to be activated by local spiritual leaders in order to communicate with the realm of the ancestors and spirits. This exhibition explores the parallels between the adornment of the king’s physical body and minkisi. Drawing on works from UMMA’s collection and several loans\, the exhibition demonstrates how authority was expressed and power contained across a range of historical cultures in Nigeria\, Ghana\, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Cameroon.\n\nLead support for Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Transparency: The Neglected Question in Science and Values
DESCRIPTION:The recent philosophical literature on science and values has focused primarily on questions about whether non-epistemic values can play legitimate roles in scientific reasoning and\, if so\, how to distinguish influences that are legitimate from those that are illegitimate. This paper argues that the question of how to achieve adequate transparency about the influences of non-epistemic values deserves much more attention. First\, the paper argues that transparency is crucial for responding to an important ethical worry about non-epistemic influences on science—namely\, that they threaten principles of democratic accountability and individual self-determination. Second\, it shows that achieving adequate transparency about the influences of non-epistemic values is much more difficult than it initially appears. Finally\, it proposes an overarching strategy for achieving greater transparency\, focusing on the identification of specific value judgments that are of particular significance to stakeholders. It concludes by highlighting the wide range of institutions and initiatives needed for implementing this strategy and by identifying a number of questions that merit further discussion.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CREES Noon Lecture. From Land to Sea: Reconceptualizing Southeastern Europe as a Region
DESCRIPTION:This talk asks how insights drawn from the oceanic or watery turn may help us rethink the Balkans\, an area often conceptualized in highly terrestrialized ways. How\, for example\, might thinking with water challenge scholarly understandings about the predominance of the national idea in the modern era\, as well as the image of Central and Southeast European empires as contiguous\, continental entities? In addressing these questions\, the speaker draws upon nearly two decades of field research in and on the Adriatic Sea. In particular\, her discussion centers on a key case study: the mass migration or “exodus” from Istria\, a peninsula in the northeastern Adriatic Sea which passed from Italian to Yugoslav control after a protracted territorial dispute in the decade after World War II. The predominant (if contested) narrative of this migration depicts it in terms of longstanding Italian-Slavic ethnic enmity. Such an interpretation largely attributes the reasons for the Istrian exodus to a history of violence seen as particularly “Balkan.” Ironically\, however\, even while this reading of events in post-1945 Istria privileges the lens of a regional (Adriatic) history of ethnic conflict\, the growing historiography on this topic pays little attention to either actual seaspace or perspectives associated with the oceanic turn. In offering a series of suggestions for how to anchor histories of the modern Adriatic in both the lived seascape and oceanic concepts (such as taking scholarship both “offshore” and “alongshore”)\, the speaker also investigates the limits of such seaborne thinking for our understanding of Southeastern Europe. \n\nPamela Ballinger is Fred Cuny Professor of the History of Human Rights and associate professor of history at the University of Michigan. She holds degrees in anthropology (B.A. Stanford University\, M.Phil Cambridge University\, M.A. Johns Hopkins University) and a joint Ph.D. in anthropology and history (Johns Hopkins University). She is the author of \"History in Exile: Memory and Identity at the Borders of the Balkans\" (Princeton University Press\, 2003). She has published on topics such as refugees\, displacement\, ethnic cleansing\, human rights\, and the Adriatic seascape in journals that include \"Comparative Studies in Society and History\,\" \"Contemporary European History\,\" \"Current Anthropology\,\" \"History and Memory\,\" \"Journal of Modern Italian Studies\,\" \"New Global Studies\,\" and \"Past and Present.\"

DESCRIPTION:Galaxies beyond our own represent some of the brightest potential sources of dark matter flux on the sky. As such they represent excellent candidates for indirect detection and in this talk I will demonstrate how to exploit this information to search for dark matter using the Fermi telescope. In particular I will outline how to map from an observed baryonic galaxy to its underlying dark matter distribution and a demonstration that our methods work in a simulated N-body environment.
