SUMMARY:Performance:10 Blocks on the Camino Real
DESCRIPTION:\"A big-hearted Williams one-act about love and heroism\, staged with West African flair in a performance full of vibrant song and dance\, perfectly suited to the outdoor marketplace.\"\n\nThe University of Michigan Center for World Performance Studies (CWPS) hosts the National Theatre of Ghana in residence from September 12-17\, featuring a series of open air performances of 10 Blocks on the Camino Real\, written by Tennessee Williams. In this one-act play\, song\, dialogue and dance are used to tell the story of how the American hero Kilroy enters the pantheon of heroes by losing his innocence. The plaza of Ten Blocks on the Camino Real is a crossroads of world theater\, drawing on Williams’ experiences in Mexico\, and inspired by German theater\, Chinese opera and commedia del’arte. Ghana is the source and setting for this new production\, directed by David Kaplan\, curator of the Provincetown Tennessee Williams Theater Festival. While the spoken English text is performed as written by Williams\, Spanish songs and Spanish words have been translated to Ghanaian songs and Ghanaian languages. Don Quixote has become Okomfo Okokye\, the founder of the Ashanti line of kings\, who finds his sidekick\, Osei-tutu. Other Spanish details are exchanged for Ghanaian specifics: pesos for pesewas\, fiesta for jubilee. The presiding musician plays two blue djembe drums\, rather than a blue guitar.\n\nEstablished in 1983 at the University of Ghana at Legon\, the professional theater company once known as “Abibigromma” became the resident troupe of the National Theatre of Ghana in 1991. The focus of the company is to develop a rich blend of music\, dance\, mime\, movement\, and dialogue with a strong social\, spiritual and folkloric base. In addition to performances and class visits throughout the week\, they will give a workshop for the public at the Residential College on Wednesday\, September 13 at 4pm in the East Quad Keene Theater\, and will also work with students at Ann Arbor’s Community High School\, and Mosaic Youth Theater in Detroit.\nCWPS aims to recreate the atmosphere of the Ghanaian outdoor productions here in Michigan\, staging performances in four outdoor venues through the week. These include:\n\n\nAnn Arbor Farmer’s Market \n315 Detroit Street\, Ann Arbor MI\nWednesday\, September 13 at 12pm\n\nThe Diag\nUniversity of Michigan\nFriday\, September 15 at 12pm\n\nYpsilanti Farmers Market Depot Town\n100 Rice Street\, Ypsilanti MI\nSaturday\, September 16 at 11am\n\nCMAP Detroit\n2221 Carpenter\, Detroit MI\nSunday\, September 17 at 2pm\n\n All performances are free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion: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\, images of fashionable women on city streets and mannequins in shop windows juxtaposing haute couture and everyday life\, and artists who employ the visual strategies of traditional fashion photography\, while offering alternative narratives to mainstream notions of female beauty. Join UMMA docents for a lively review of these photographic strategies.\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:Workshop / Seminar:The Premodern Colloquium. Unter den Schutz Frankreichs: German Reception of French Subsidies in the Thirty Years War
DESCRIPTION:This paper will discuss French monies and how the Germans understood them. I argue that subsidies were seen primarily as functional\, as a means by which the German princes could raise troops\, manage their supply and maintenance\, and employ them to the mutual interest of the anti-Habsburg cause. And yet French subsidies and other monetary offerings were freighted with additional\, and often contradictory\, meanings.

SUMMARY:Other:Recruiting New Members for Fall 2017!
DESCRIPTION:The LSA Honor Council is an undergraduate student organization dedicated to developing initiatives that aid in the promotion of respect\, integrity\, and personal responsibility. We also attend meetings hosted by the Office of Student Academic Affairs for students accused of academic misconduct.   In our recruitment efforts\, we prioritize the importance of forming a council composed of individuals with diverse backgrounds and viewpoints. This spectrum of varied perspectives enables our council to more effectively address issues of integrity on our campus. This upcoming year\, we are recruiting a group of motivated and dedicated LSA students who are interested in working closely with the deans\, faculty\, and fellow students to promote a campus culture that values integrity. This past year\, we have accomplished this goal by hosting faculty department presentations\, tabling events\, and discussions of current ethical issues. Most recently\, we hosted Dr. Victor Strecher from the School of Public Health to present a talk on “Designing a Happy Life.” Given the breadth of our activities\, it is crucial that we incorporate students with diverse skill sets to maximize our council’s potential. We hope that you will join us next fall! Link to application: http://lsastudenthc.weebly.com/become-a-member.html

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Forever Unfinished: Making and Remaking a Public University
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan was founded in 1817 as a public institution\, a concept for which there were few models. What makes a university public? What should it look like? Whom should it serve? Who should have access to its resources\, and where should those resources come from?\n\nThis exhibit explores how students\, faculty\, staff\, politicians\, and citizens have attempted to answer these questions. These stories invite us to imagine U-M's future as a public university based on what we know about its past.\n\nExhibit team: Jonathan Farr\, Nora Krinitsky\, Michelle McClellan\, Gregory Parker\, Emily Price\, Kate Silbert\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester exhibit is presented with support from the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office. Additional support provided by the Department of History and the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents When Pigs Fly: Oil Painting
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.”

DESCRIPTION:Possession evolved in response to Ann Arbor artist Jaye Schlesinger’s interest in mindfulness and minimalism and the role they play in personal well being.  After disposing (selling\, recycling\, giving away) of everything that no longer served to enrich her life\, Schlesinger decided to merge this exercise with her art practice and depicted all of her remaining possessions in small oil paintings\, 380 in total. The paintings depict objects of functionality and ones of beauty\, eliciting contemplation and conversation about the ‘stuff’ we choose to live with.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Reverberations of Rebellion: 1967 in Detroit and Ann Arbor
DESCRIPTION:The 1967 Detroit rebellion was a pivotal event in the history of the Motor City. While Ann Arbor may seem far removed from Detroit\, the themes of 1967—housing segregation\, media bias\, student activism\, and police violence—resonated here as well. \n\nThis exhibit\, on display in the Hatcher Graduate Library North lobby through September 15\, 2017\, highlights the extensive archival resources of the  Bentley Historical Library and the U-M Library’s Labadie Collection. These materials place the rebellion in the context of 1960s activism against racism and inequality in Detroit and Ann Arbor\, and illustrate the significance and range of press coverage.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Waiting for the Extraordinary installation by Mark Dion
DESCRIPTION:About the installation: As part of the Institute for the Humanities 2017-18  Year of Archives and Futures\, and in celebration of the U-M Bicentennial\, the Institute for the Humanities presents a new iteration of Mark Dion’s Waiting for the Extraordinary\, which was commissioned and first exhibited here in 2011. Inspired by the academic classifications invented by 19th-century Michigan Chief Justice Augustus B. Woodward\, this new\, architecturally scaled installation serves as an archive of the original\, and presents a single room with thirteen plastic sculptures\, each representing one of Woodward’s professorships. As viewers peer into the space and encounter these illuminated objects—reproduced using 3D imaging technology from original objects Dion found in departments and collections across the University of Michigan—they confront questions about the distinction between the rational and subjective in our construction of knowledge\, as well as role of the museum and institutions that continue to determine it.\n\nAbout the artist: Mark Dion’s work examines the ways in which dominant ideologies and public institutions shape our understanding of history\, knowledge\, and the natural world. “The job of the artist\,” he says\, “is to go against the grain of dominant culture\, to challenge perception and convention.” Appropriating archaeological\, field ecology\, and other scientific methods of collecting\, ordering\, and exhibiting objects\, Dion creates works that question the distinctions between ‘objective’ (‘rational’) scientific methods and ‘subjective’ (‘irrational’) influences. Mark Dion questions the objectivity and authoritative role of the scientific voice in contemporary society\, tracking how pseudo-science\, social agendas\, and ideology creep into public discourse and knowledge production.\n\nImage: Mark DION\nWaiting for the\nExtraordinary\n2013\nmixed media\n96 x 61 x 122\ninches\; 243.8 x\n154.9 x 309.9 cm\nCourtesy the artist\nand Tanya Bonakdar\nGallery\, New York

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:Clinical Science Brown Bag:  Early Childhood Precursors of Gender Differences in Depressive Symptoms: Integrating contributions of child emotion regulation and maternal risk factors
DESCRIPTION:The main goal of this study was to examine early social and developmental precursors of gender differences in children’s later depressive symptoms. Girls show higher levels of depressive symptoms than boys as early as the \npreadolescent period\, and these differences persist across the lifespan. However\, relatively little is known about risk factors in early childhood that predict later gender differences in depressive symptoms. Participants were 218 3-year-old boys and girls who were reassessed during the late school-age years (age 10-11). Our predictive model integrated constructs of early emotion regulation and maternal distress as predictors of children’s later depressive symptoms. At age 3 years\, we assessed child emotion regulation as well as maternal distress using behavioral measures and parent reports\, in addition to home visits and laboratory observations. Mothers and teachers contributed ratings of children’s depressive symptoms at both time points. Children’s self-regulation abilities differed significantly in terms of anger\, with boys more likely to be dysregulated this way. While most young children follow a common pathway marked by low levels of symptoms\, we identified an atypical trajectory – that of anger later manifesting in elevated levels of internalizing problems. We found that three-year-old children with limited capacity for/low levels of emotion regulation expressed in the form of anger were more likely to show elevated internalizing problems later in childhood. These results did not differ by gender. Likewise\, for both boys and girls\, maternal distress predicted later internalizing problems. Findings suggest that children’s poor emotion regulation skills are the best predictor of early onset problems\, emphasizing the need for early childhood screening and intervention efforts for identified “angry” boys and girls\, as well as support for mothers identified as depressed and who perceive themselves as socially isolated and non-efficacious caregivers.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AE Defense: Retrospective Cost Adaptive Control for Feedback and Feedforward Noise Control
DESCRIPTION:The problem of undesirable acoustic noise is prevalent in both commercial and industrial applications. Traditional solutions of noise control have largely been passive damping and insolation\, however in the present work\, we explore the possibility of active noise control (ANC) which can provide significant noise reduction with smaller\, lighter\, and at times\, cheaper solutions. The present work concerns development of retrospective cost adaptive control (RCAC) and the application of RCAC to ANC.  \n\nAn alternative interpretation of the retrospective performance is presented which views the retrospective performance variable as a combination of the pseudo-performance and the model-matching error. We demonstrate a practical application of RCAC in a broadband feedback road noise suppression problem in a vehicle. This leads to the question\, if you suppress the noise at the performance microphone\, what is effect at the actual ear of the driver where you may not be able to place a sensor and the development of the concept of spatial. The framework of RCAC is then extended to the feedforward control problem. We make comparisons of RCAC feedforward to linear-quadratic-Gaussian (LQG) control and the classic filtered-x least-mean-square (FxLMS) algorithm as well as demonstrate RCAC in an acoustic experiment.\n\nDissertation Committee\nChair: Professor Dennis S.

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:Lecture / Discussion:Teach Out Series- Hurricanes: What's Next?
DESCRIPTION:The 2017 Atlantic Hurricane season has produced incredibly destructive storms\, and has raised many questions. What drives a hurricane? How accurate are hurricane models? How do authorities prepare for hurricanes and\, when destructive events like Hurricanes Harvey and Irma happen\, how do we respond? Is this hurricane season a fluke\, or should we start planning for more/similar storms? In this Teach-Out\, we will explore the science of hurricanes\, hurricane forecasting and monitoring\, and with what confidence can we attribute these storms to a warming ocean.\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. Come\, join the conversation!

DESCRIPTION:Panelists include:\n\nLibby Garland (Kingsborough Community College\, The City University of New York)\nKunal Parker (University of Miami School of Law)\nAnna Pegler-Gordon (Michigan State University)\n\nThe history of immigration in the United States is one of bans\, quotas\, restrictions\, and exclusions. Immigrants have negotiated inconsistent and discriminatory definitions of authorized and unauthorized belonging and targeted restrictions on citizenship since the nation’s founding. This symposium brings together scholars who will illuminate the historical experiences of Asian American\, Latinx\, African American\, Muslim\, Jewish\, gendered\, and sexualized immigrants from the late-nineteenth century to the mid-twentieth century.\n\nLibby Garland is Associate Professor of History at Kingsborough College\, The City University of New York\, where she teaches immigration history and urban history. She earned her PhD at the University of Michigan. Garland is the author of After They Closed the Gates: Jewish Illegal Immigration to the United States\, 1921-1965 (University of Chicago Press\, 2014)\, winner of both the American Jewish Historical Society’s Saul Viener book prize and the American Historical Association’s Dorothy Rosenberg prize in 2015.\n\nKunal Parker is a professor and Dean's Distinguished Scholar with a PhD in history from Princeton University\, a JD from Harvard Law School\, and a BA from Harvard University. He recently completed Making Foreigners: Immigration and Citizenship Law in America (Cambridge University Press\, 2015).  His first book\, Common Law\, History\, and Democracy in America\, 1790-1900: Legal Thought Before Modernism\, was published by Cambridge University Press in 2011. Professor Parker's teaching areas and interests include American legal history\, estates and trusts\, immigration and nationality law\, and property.\n\nAnna Pegler-Gordon became interested in US immigration policy when she was photographed for her immigration papers in 1990. Her first book\, In Sight of Ellis Island: Photography and the Development of US Immigration Policy\, began as a dissertation in the University of Michigan Department of American Culture. In Sight of America won the Immigration and Ethnic History Society Theodore Saloutos Book Award (2009) and an essay drawn from this research was included in Best American History Essays (2008). Pegler-Gordon is currently completing work on a second book project\, tentatively titled From East to East: Asian Migration and the Hidden History of Ellis Island. Pegler-Gordon is an associate professor at Michigan State University\, teaching in the James Madison College and the Asian Pacific American Studies program. She recently stepped down as director of MSU’s APA Studies program and has started as director of a graduate fellowship program focused on interdisciplinary inquiry and teaching.\n\nFree and open to the public.\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester event is presented with support from the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral & Experimental Economics (SBEE): Rethinking the Benefits of Youth Employment Programs: The Heterogeneous Effects of Summer Jobs
DESCRIPTION:This paper reports the results of two randomized field experiments\, each offering different populations of youth a supported summer job in Chicago. In both experiments\, the program dramatically reduces violent-crime arrests\, even after the summer. It does so without improving employment\, schooling\, or other types of crime\; if anything\, property crime increases over 2-3 post-program years. To explore mechanisms\, we implement a machine learning method that predicts treatment heterogeneity using observables. The method identifies a subgroup of youth with positive employment impacts\, whose characteristics differ from the disconnected youth served in most employment programs. We find that employment benefiters commit more property crime than their control counterparts\, and non-benefiters also show a decline in violent crime. These results do not seem consistent with typical theory about improved human capital and better labor market opportunities creating a higher opportunity cost of crime\, or even with the idea that these programs just keep youth busy. We discuss several alternative mechanisms\, concluding that brief youth employment programs can generate substantively important behavioral change\, but for different outcomes\, different youth\, and different reasons than those most often considered in the literature.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:CMENAS Colloquium Film Screening. The Wanted 18
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a film screening of \"The Wanted 18.\" It started simply enough\, with the purchase of 18 cows. Bought by residents of the West Bank town of Beit Sahour\, the cows were a symbol of freedom and resistance\, allowing them to provide milk for their children rather than buying it from an Israeli company. But these were not ordinary times. The first Palestinian popular movement in the West Bank was rising and soon the illegal cows\, cherished by the Palestinians\, were being sought by the Israeli army. With humor and passion\, The Wanted 18 captures the spirit of the 1987 uprising through the personal experiences of those who lived it\, bringing to life one of the strangest chapters in the history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IOE 813 Seminar: Sharon A. Johnson\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:Title: Secure Messaging and Patient Portals: Designing Customer-Facing Processes\n\nPatient-facing technologies\, such as secure messaging (SM) or email between patients and providers\, promise increased patient satisfaction and engagement as well as the potential to improve access and care quality.  These technologies may be embedded in patient portals\, which link to an electronic health record system\, or standalone systems.  As with other IT systems\, patient portals are likely to be more effective if implemented in conjunction with workflow and process design. \n\nIn this talk\, process impacts and design guidelines for patient-facing technologies are explored in the context of two separate studies.  In the first study\, SM implementation at two Veterans Health Administration facilities was examined\, through content analysis of secure messages sampled from 40 primary care teams as well as a process analysis developed from interviews with members from a subset of 8 care teams.  Questions addressed staff opinions about the integration of SM with daily practice\, and team members’ attitudes and experiences with SM. We describe several clinical workflow patterns that emerged for SM\, as well as explored technology fit and resulting issues. In the second study\, we analyzed patient portal use from a multi-specialty group medical practice (250 physicians\, 25 clinics\, 200\,000 patients\, and over one million patient visits annually).  We examined the relationship between portal use and encounters (telephone calls and office visits) as well as explored effects on perceived health management. Findings from both studies can inform organizational interventions that support more effective patient portal implementation and improved outcomes.\n\nSharon A. Johnson is a Professor of Operations and Industrial Engineering in the Foisie School of Business at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI).  She recently served as Faculty Director of the Healthcare Delivery Institute (HDI) at WPI\, and is currently a member of HDI’s Faculty Steering Committee.  Dr. Johnson’s research focuses on modeling healthcare delivery processes\, as well as identifying improvements enabled by information technologies and system design methods.  Recent projects have explored the use of lean as an implementation strategy for healthcare interventions\, investigated the impact of secure messaging on workflows\, analyzed access and capacity in health clinics\, and examined the implementation of electronic health record systems\, including personal health records.  She has also explored hands-on approaches for teaching lean process design.  Dr. Johnson’s research has been supported by the National Science Foundation and the New England Veterans Engineering Resource Center.  Her work has appeared in Operations Research\, the Journal of the Association for Information Systems\, and the Journal of Healthcare Management. Dr. Johnson received her Ph.D. from Cornell University in Operations Research and Industrial Engineering in 1989\, and served as Industrial Engineering Program Director at WPI from 1996 to 2009.  \n\nThe seminar series “Providing Better Healthcare through Systems Engineering” is presented by the U-M Center for Healthcare Engineering and Patient Safety (CHEPS):  Our mission is to improve the safety and quality of healthcare delivery through a multi-disciplinary\, systems-engineering approach.\n\nFor additional information and to be added to the weekly e-mail for the series\, \nplease contact genehkim@umich.edu

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Charles Correa International Lecture: Tatiana Bilbao
DESCRIPTION:Tatiana Bilbao is well-known as an important international architect\, not only for the expressiveness of her architecture but for her promotion of the discipline as a tool for improving society and the environment.\nBorn in Mexico City in 1972\, her career was launched when she graduated in Architecture and Urbanism from Universidad Iberoamericana in 1996 and her graduate thesis was named the best of the year. In 1998 she became Advisor for Urban Projects and Urban Residential Construction of the Mexico City Development Department. She founded her own studio\, Tatiana Bilbao Estudio\, in Mexico City in 2004\, developing projects in China and Europe\, as well as in Mexico. In 2007 she was awarded Design Vanguard as one of the top ten emerging firms of the year by Architectural Record\, and the Architecture League in New York named her as Emerging Voice in 2010. The Centre Pompidou added her three of her projects to their permanent collection in 2010\, and her work is also included in the collections of the Carnegie Museum of Art and the Art Institute of Chicago. She received the CEMEX Building Award in 2011 and 2013\, and the Kunstpries Berlin in 2012.\nIn 2014 she received the Global Award for Sustainable Architecture by the LOCUS Foundation\, Cité de l´Architecture of Paris and the patronage of UNESCO.\nHer work centers on developing architectural projects that respond to the social climate. For over ten years\, Bilbao has been participating in an important multidisciplinary project in the city of Culiacán\, the capital of the state of Sinaloa\, in Mexico\, a small city with complex social and political issues. The Jardín Botánico Culiacán (Culiacán Botanical Garden) is a public space\, based on an extensive private contemporary art collection\, that became an ambitious project to develop a cultural environment. One of her first projects and still ongoing\, the evolving Botanical Garden complex is an democratic space that offers possibilities for all.\nIn addition to her studio practice\, she has also pursued an academic career\, including teaching design at the Universidad Iberoamericana and at Andres Bello University in Santiago\, Chile.  She was the Louis Kahn Visiting Professor at Yale School of Architecture in the spring 2015. In spring 2016\, she was named Cullinan Visiting Professor at Rice School of Architecture and became Adjunct Associate Professor of Architecture at Columbia GSAPP that fall. In spring 2017\, she was named the Norman R. Foster Professor of Architectural Design at Yale University School of Architecture.

SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:DRW On-Campus Information Session\, in collaboration with GEECS
DESCRIPTION:DRW\, a leading trading and technology company in Chicago\, in collaboration with GEECS\, will be co-hosting an on-campus information session featuring Kelley Fernandez\, a financial application support engineer at DRW. Kelley’s session will discuss a woman’s ability to both lead and contribute in vital programming\, trading\, and quantitative roles.\n\nKelley’s path to the trading world is unconventional and can serve as motivation to young women who are interested in such a career but don’t know where they’d fit in. Graduating from college with a political science degree\, Kelley was introduced to the industry when she met someone from Toji Trading Group and had the opportunity to start out as a liaison between traders and developers. She began developing programs complementary to the trading systems\, and eventually started leading the support of all the firm’s trading systems. Today\, she carries on this very same role at DRW — one she never thought she’d have.\n\nThere is a common misconception that you have to be a quant developer working directly on a trading system to survive in trading. However\, there are many other roles that build incredible and complex technology\, both within trading systems — like Kelley’s role\, which involves working within different parts of the systems — and outside them\, in risk\, infrastructure\, etc.

SUMMARY:Performance:Ping-Pong Diplomacy Celebration: Musical Performance & Exhibition Table Tennis Games
DESCRIPTION:After more than two decades of political disassociation between the U.S. and China\, the 1972 Chinese Ping Pong delegation visited Ann Arbor at the invitation of the University of Michigan. This activity helped begin formal communication and relations between our nations and later became known as Ping Pong Diplomacy. \n\nToday\, the U.S. and China have a strong bilateral relationship\, and this relationship is\, with certainty\, the most important geopolitical relationship on the planet.  One of many emblems of our strong relationship is the thousands of Chinese students\, visiting scholars\, faculty\, and staff that Michigan proudly welcomes to campus each year.  They contribute immensely to our campus learning community.  Michigan also sends numerous students\, faculty\, and staff to China each year to participate in dozens of programs\, including Joint Institutes we have with Shanghai Jiao Tong University and Peking University Health Science Center.  \n\nIn celebration of the 45th anniversary of Ping Pong Diplomacy\, the University of Michigan is excited to host an evening highlighting the history\, impact\, and a continued dedication to a solid relationship between Michigan and China. We hope you’ll join us for a community event including remarks from distinguished guests\, a musical performance\, and several exciting table tennis games. \n\nMusical Performance by Silk Cedar Band\n\nTable Tennis Players:\nLIANG Geliang 梁戈亮\, male\, member of '72 team\nZHENG Huaiying 郑怀颖\, female\, member of '72 team\nWANG Hao 王皓\, male\, retired in 2014\, multiple time world champion\nYAN Sen 阎森\, male\, retired in 2006\, Olympic gold medalist (2000)\nDING Ning 丁宁\, female\, current Chinese team captain\nQIAO Hong 乔红，female\, retired in 1996\, Olympic gold medalist (1992\, 1996)\nConnie Sweeris\, female\, member of '72 US team\nDell Sweeris\, male\, member of '72 US team\n\nThis event is co-sponsored by the the U-M Association of Chinese Professors\, the U-M Confucius Institute\, the Office of Research\, the Lieberthal - Rogel Center for Chinese Studies\, the Office of University Development\, the China Soong Ching Ling Foundation\, and the Chinese Table Tennis Association.

SUMMARY:Other:Recruiting New Members for Fall 2017!
DESCRIPTION:The LSA Honor Council is an undergraduate student organization dedicated to developing initiatives that aid in the promotion of respect\, integrity\, and personal responsibility. We also attend meetings hosted by the Office of Student Academic Affairs for students accused of academic misconduct.   In our recruitment efforts\, we prioritize the importance of forming a council composed of individuals with diverse backgrounds and viewpoints. This spectrum of varied perspectives enables our council to more effectively address issues of integrity on our campus. This upcoming year\, we are recruiting a group of motivated and dedicated LSA students who are interested in working closely with the deans\, faculty\, and fellow students to promote a campus culture that values integrity. This past year\, we have accomplished this goal by hosting faculty department presentations\, tabling events\, and discussions of current ethical issues. Most recently\, we hosted Dr. Victor Strecher from the School of Public Health to present a talk on “Designing a Happy Life.” Given the breadth of our activities\, it is crucial that we incorporate students with diverse skill sets to maximize our council’s potential. We hope that you will join us next fall! Link to application: http://lsastudenthc.weebly.com/become-a-member.html

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Forever Unfinished: Making and Remaking a Public University
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan was founded in 1817 as a public institution\, a concept for which there were few models. What makes a university public? What should it look like? Whom should it serve? Who should have access to its resources\, and where should those resources come from?\n\nThis exhibit explores how students\, faculty\, staff\, politicians\, and citizens have attempted to answer these questions. These stories invite us to imagine U-M's future as a public university based on what we know about its past.\n\nExhibit team: Jonathan Farr\, Nora Krinitsky\, Michelle McClellan\, Gregory Parker\, Emily Price\, Kate Silbert\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester exhibit is presented with support from the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Cut Ups: Paper Collage
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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents When Pigs Fly: Oil Painting
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:Possession\, pop-up exhibition by Jaye Schlesinger
DESCRIPTION:Possession evolved in response to Ann Arbor artist Jaye Schlesinger’s interest in mindfulness and minimalism and the role they play in personal well being.  After disposing (selling\, recycling\, giving away) of everything that no longer served to enrich her life\, Schlesinger decided to merge this exercise with her art practice and depicted all of her remaining possessions in small oil paintings\, 380 in total. The paintings depict objects of functionality and ones of beauty\, eliciting contemplation and conversation about the ‘stuff’ we choose to live with.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Reverberations of Rebellion: 1967 in Detroit and Ann Arbor
DESCRIPTION:The 1967 Detroit rebellion was a pivotal event in the history of the Motor City. While Ann Arbor may seem far removed from Detroit\, the themes of 1967—housing segregation\, media bias\, student activism\, and police violence—resonated here as well. \n\nThis exhibit\, on display in the Hatcher Graduate Library North lobby through September 15\, 2017\, highlights the extensive archival resources of the  Bentley Historical Library and the U-M Library’s Labadie Collection. These materials place the rebellion in the context of 1960s activism against racism and inequality in Detroit and Ann Arbor\, and illustrate the significance and range of press coverage.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Waiting for the Extraordinary installation by Mark Dion
DESCRIPTION:About the installation: As part of the Institute for the Humanities 2017-18  Year of Archives and Futures\, and in celebration of the U-M Bicentennial\, the Institute for the Humanities presents a new iteration of Mark Dion’s Waiting for the Extraordinary\, which was commissioned and first exhibited here in 2011. Inspired by the academic classifications invented by 19th-century Michigan Chief Justice Augustus B. Woodward\, this new\, architecturally scaled installation serves as an archive of the original\, and presents a single room with thirteen plastic sculptures\, each representing one of Woodward’s professorships. As viewers peer into the space and encounter these illuminated objects—reproduced using 3D imaging technology from original objects Dion found in departments and collections across the University of Michigan—they confront questions about the distinction between the rational and subjective in our construction of knowledge\, as well as role of the museum and institutions that continue to determine it.\n\nAbout the artist: Mark Dion’s work examines the ways in which dominant ideologies and public institutions shape our understanding of history\, knowledge\, and the natural world. “The job of the artist\,” he says\, “is to go against the grain of dominant culture\, to challenge perception and convention.” Appropriating archaeological\, field ecology\, and other scientific methods of collecting\, ordering\, and exhibiting objects\, Dion creates works that question the distinctions between ‘objective’ (‘rational’) scientific methods and ‘subjective’ (‘irrational’) influences. Mark Dion questions the objectivity and authoritative role of the scientific voice in contemporary society\, tracking how pseudo-science\, social agendas\, and ideology creep into public discourse and knowledge production.\n\nImage: Mark DION\nWaiting for the\nExtraordinary\n2013\nmixed media\n96 x 61 x 122\ninches\; 243.8 x\n154.9 x 309.9 cm\nCourtesy the artist\nand Tanya Bonakdar\nGallery\, New York

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: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 will use 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. \n\nLook for displays in the UMMA from April 22-Dec. 3\, the exterior of the Kelsey Museum from June 2-Dec. 17\, and in the interior special exhibition space of the Kelsey Museum from June 2-Sept. 10.\n\nFor information on-the-go about this event and all other Bicentennial happenings\, download our free mobile app: http://guidebook.com/g/umich200.

DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University of Michigan’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and distinguished U​–M art professor Jim Cogswell has been invited to create a series of public window installations in response to the holdings of 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\, based on reassembled fragments from a diverse range of artworks in both museums’ permanent collections. The juxtaposed images will address our shared histories and experiences while connecting the viewer to the origins and meaning of objects and their power to shape knowledge\, memory\, and identity. 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.\nCosmogonic Tattoos is on view at UMMA April 22 through December 3\, 2017 and at the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology from June 2 through December 17\, 2017.\nLead support for Cosmogonic Tattoos is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.

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:Lecture / Discussion:Teach Out Series- Hurricanes: What's Next?
DESCRIPTION:The 2017 Atlantic Hurricane season has produced incredibly destructive storms\, and has raised many questions. What drives a hurricane? How accurate are hurricane models? How do authorities prepare for hurricanes and\, when destructive events like Hurricanes Harvey and Irma happen\, how do we respond? Is this hurricane season a fluke\, or should we start planning for more/similar storms? In this Teach-Out\, we will explore the science of hurricanes\, hurricane forecasting and monitoring\, and with what confidence can we attribute these storms to a warming ocean.\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. Come\, join the conversation!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Unfinished Conversation: Encoding/Decoding
DESCRIPTION:On view from September 8-October 14\, 2017 in the Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.\, Ann Arbor)\, The Unfinished Conversation: Encoding/Decoding is a group exhibition including image and video work by Terry Adkins\, John Akomfrah\, Shelagh Keeley\, and Zineb Sedira. There will be an exhibition reception on Friday\, September 8 from 6-8 pm. The exhibition and reception are free and open to the public.\n\nCo-curated by Gaëtane Verna\, Director of The Power Plant\, and Mark Sealy\, The Unfinished Conversation is grounded in the work of cultural theorist Stuart Hall (1932-2014)\, who devoted his life to studying the interweaving threads of culture\, power\, politics\, and history. \n\nTaking Hall’s essay Encoding and Decoding in the Television Discourse as a point of departure\, viewers will be invited to think about how meaning is constructed\; how it is systematically distorted by audience reception\; and how it can be detached and drained of its original intent to produce specific or slanted narratives. Hall’s interdisciplinary approach drew on literary theory\, linguistics\, and cultural anthropology in order to analyse and articulate the relationship between history\, culture\, popular media\, cold war politics\, gender\, and ethnicity.\n\nBy presenting the work of artists who bring into play time\, memory\, and archives so as to construct new readings of the past\, the exhibition will lay emphasis on the idea that the “visual” is an assimilatory process continuously at work in the construction of cultural\, political\, personal\, and national identities.\n\nCo-curators Gaëtane Verna and Mark Sealy state that it is their curatorial intention to build a multiple moving/still/audio archive\, an image map\, a visual vehicle that will ferry the audience across the choppy waters of memory\, images\, and politics to an undeterminable\, obscure\, and un-chartable destination\, where people often meet with a fatal end. The exhibition aims to take viewers on a journey in time\, to bring them to encounter images\, which act as both objects of art and ideas in flux\, circulating in and out of the archive through the corridors of cultural re-construction.\n\nThis image map will be drawn by the work of Terry Adkins\, John Akomfrah\, Shelagh Keeley and Zineb Sedira\, four artists whose practice is devoted primarily to commenting on recent socio-political events and situations and relating them to the not so distant past in order to help us understand the world we live in.\n\nBy stimulating our personal and collective memory\, these works will show us how history agitates and causes anxiety in our personal lives and in the political realm as they will reveal the fact that national identity is not an essence or a state of being\, but a “becoming\,” a process whereby subjectivities are formed in the interstices between such binary oppositions as us/them\, black/white\, or native/foreigner\, and that it is in those in-between spaces that marginalized people are the agents and subjects of many possible futures\, imagined or real.\n\nThe thread that connects all these art works is the artist’s involvement with the significant social issues confronting humanity today and their profound desire to push formal boundaries in order to tackle them.\n\nThe Unfinished Conversation: Encoding/Decoding is organized and circulated by The Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery\, Toronto in partnership with Autograph ABP\, London. The exhibition is co-curated by Gaëtane Verna\, Director\, The Power Plant and Mark Sealy\, Director\, Autograph ABP.\n\nPhoto by Toni Hafkenscheid.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Vital Signs for a New America
DESCRIPTION:On view from September 8-October 14\, 2017 in the Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.\, Ann Arbor)\, Vital Signs for a New America is a group exhibition including work by Dylan Miner\, Sheryl Oring\, and the performance collective The Hinterlands. There will be an exhibition reception on Friday\, September 8 from 6-8 pm. The exhibition and reception are free and open to the public.\n\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra\, Vital Signs for a New America uses a range of meaningful and compelling of community-engaged approaches to invite the public to join Miner\, Oring\, and The Hinterlands in speaking out and sharing stories\; listening and re-learning\; and remembering the past to imagine new possibilities for the future.\n\nActive public engagement is at the heart of Vital Signs for a New America. Each work on view in this group exhibition offers opportunities to interact directly with the artists and their art. As part of the exhibition programming\, the gallery will become a common space for storytelling and tea drinking with Dylan Miner\; a bustling executive assistant’s office with Sheryl Oring\; and a tactile\, expansive personal archive with the performance collective The Hinterlands. Vital Signs invites the public to speak out\, listen\, and imagine new models for inclusive futures.\n\nDylan Miner: Elders Say We Don’t Visit Anymore\nSaturdays\, September 9-October 14\, 1-3 pm\n\nDylan Miner\, Director of American Indian and Indigenous Studies at Michigan State University\, is an artist\, activist\, and scholar. Miner identifies as a Wiisaakodewinini (Métis)\, the Ojibwe designation for a Native male of mixed ancestry. While conducting an oral history project with retired Anishinaabe autoworkers\, elders shared the idea that “we don’t visit as much as we used to” due to the limitations of urbanizations\, wage labor\, and settler colonialism to name a few. In response\, Miner was inspired to explore the methodology of visiting with an art gallery or museum context. Elders Say We Don’t Visit Anymore is a creative action where the public is invited to share tea and conversation with the artist\, creating new friendships and maintaining social relationships within a specific time and place.\n\nSheryl Oring: I Wish to Say \nFriday\, September 8\, 5-6.30 pm and 7-8 pm (two engagements)\nFridays\, September 15-October 13\, 5-7 pm\n\nNationally renowned artist Sheryl Oring’s belief in the value of free expression guaranteed by the American constitution propelled her to initiate I Wish to Say (2004-ongoing)\, a public platform that invites people to voice their concerns about the state-of-affairs in the country to the President of America. For this project\, Oring sets up a portable public office — complete with a manual typewriter — and invites viewers to dictate postcards to the President of the United States\, prompting with a simple phrase: “Do you have a message for the president?” Over the last decade\, Oring has toured this project across the country and more than 3\,000 postcards have been mailed to the White House. Taking place for the first time in Michigan\, Oring will be working with students and volunteers at the Stamps Gallery and in the city of Ann Arbor to spark dialogues not just among artists and academics but also among the diverse public of Ann Arbor on their notes to the President.\n\nThe Hinterlands: The Radicalization Process Papers \nTuesday\, October 3\, 6-7.30pm: History is a Living Weapon (performance)\n\nThe Hinterlands delve into the past to remember and re-learn the cultural memories and collective histories of Detroit and Ann Arbor. A collection of boxes is discovered in the basement of a house on the border of Detroit and Hamtramck. In them\, a rich personal archive of publication clippings\, which appear to chronicle radical U.S. histories of the 60s and 70s. Using the archive as a performative platform\, the artists invite audiences to engage with the materials contained in the boxes that blur the boundaries between fact and fiction\, real and imagined. The ephemera and memorabilia in the The Radicalization Process Papers takes audiences on a journey that navigates layers of historical accounts\, art\, politics\, and cultural artifacts and asks audiences to examine the assumptions of freedom and democracy in popular American culture. Created and compiled by The Hinterlands in collaboration with historian and poet Casey Rocheteau and designer Ben Gaydos.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Mark Dion Redux\,  panel discussion
DESCRIPTION:Panelists Osman Khan\, Sarah Rose Sharp\, and Paul Amenta\, and moderator Amanda Krugliak\, discuss \"Waiting for the Extraordinary\,\" a new iteration of Mark Dion’s 2011 U-M  installation inspired by the academic classifications invented by 19th-century Michigan Chief Justice Augustus B. Woodward. This architecturally scaled installation presents a single room with thirteen plastic sculptures\, each representing one of Woodward’s professorships. As viewers enter the darkened space and encounter these illuminated objects—reproduced using 3D imaging technology from original objects Dion found in departments and collections across the University of Michigan—they confront questions about the distinction between the rational and subjective in our construction of knowledge\, as well as role of the museum and institutions that continue to determine it. Waiting for the Extraordinary serves as an archive of the original\, as part of the Institute for the Humanities’ Year of Archives and Futures\, and in celebration of the U-M  Bicentennial.\n\nImage: Mark DION\nWaiting for the\nExtraordinary\n2013\nmixed media\n96 x 61 x 122\ninches\; 243.8 x\n154.9 x 309.9 cm\nCourtesy the artist\nand Tanya Bonakdar\nGallery\, New York\n(TBG 14740)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:ChE Seminar Series: Susan Fullerton
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\n Two-dimensional (2D) materials are molecularly thin\, layered materials held together by van der Waals forces. Because charge moves freely in the 2D plane\, these materials have potential application in electronics\; however\, conventional doping strategies have not been developed for 2D materials. An alternative approach is to use electrolyte gating. Under an applied gate voltage\, ions in the electrolyte create an electrostatic double layer (EDL) at the interface between the electrolyte and the semiconductor\; the EDL can induce sheet carrier densities on the order of 1014 cm-2 for both electrons and holes – more than one order of magnitude larger than conventional gating techniques. Our group seeks to translate EDL gating from a measurement tool for exploring transport to an active device component that enables new functionality at the ultimate limit of scaling. I will describe our work using polymer electrolytes to dope transistors based on graphene and transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs)\, and our development of new types of electrolytes for applications in security and information storage.  Specifically\, I will introduce a monolayer electrolyte developed by our group and show the first device characteristics on graphene and MoS2 FETs.\n\nSusan Fullerton is an assistant professor in the Department of Chemical and Petroleum at the University of Pittsburgh.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Using DNA to Program Pathways in Colloidal Self-Assembly
DESCRIPTION:DNA is not just the stuff of our genetic code\; it is also a means to build materials. Grafting DNA onto colloidal nano- and microparticles can\, in principle\, ‘program’ them with information that tells them exactly how to self-assemble. Recent advances in our understanding of how this information is compiled into specific interparticle attractions have enabled the assembly of crystal phases not found in ordinary colloids\, and could be extended to the assembly of prescribed\, nonperiodic structures. However\, structure is just one piece of a more complicated story\; in actuality\, self-assembly describes a phase transition between a disordered state and an ordered state\, or a pathway on a phase diagram. In this talk\, I will present experiments showing that the information stored in DNA sequences can be used to design the entire self-assembly pathway\, and not just its endpoint. Using free DNA strands that either link together strands grafted to particles or compete to bind with them\, I will show that it is possible to create colloids with new types of phase behavior\, such re-entrant melting\, temperature-independent coexistence\, and reversible transitions between different solid phases. Going forward\, this work could prove especially useful in nanomaterials research\, where a central goal is to manufacture functional materials that can respond or reconfigure on demand.\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:DISC Lecture. Being Muslims: A Cultural History of Women of Color in American Islam
DESCRIPTION:Sylvia Chan-Malik offers a previously untold story of Islam in the United States that foregrounds the voices\, experiences\, and images of women of color in the United States from the early twentieth century to the present. Until the late 1960s\, the majority of Muslim women in the U.S.—as well as almost all U.S. Muslim women who appeared in the American press or popular culture\, were African American. Thus\, she argues that lives and labors of African American Muslim women have—and continue to—forcefully shaped the meanings and presence of American Islam\, and are critical to approaching issues confronting Muslim women in the contemporary U.S. Focusing on the experiences of African American women in the Ahmadiyya Movement in Islam in 1920s Chicago\, Chan-Malikexplores how U.S. Muslim women’s identities have been consistently forged against commonsense notions of racial\, gendered\, and religious belonging and citizenship\, and argues that desires for gender and racial justice deeply inform U.S. women’s engagements with Islam.\n\nSylvia Chan-Malik studies the intersections of race\, gender\, and religion in the United States\, with a particular interest in how these categories intersect in contemporary struggles for social justice. She teaches courses on race and ethnicity in the United States\, Islam in/and America\, social justice movements\, feminist methodologies\, multiethnic literature and culture in the U.S.\, and 20-21st century U.S. history. She is also on the faculty of the Women’s and Gender Studies department. Chan-Malik holds a PhD in Ethnic Studies from the University of California\, Berkeley\, an MFA in Creative Writing from Mills College\, and a BA in English and Ethnic Studies from the University of California\, Berkeley.\n\nSponsored by the Digital Islamic Studies Curriculum (DISC) with support from Arab and Muslim American Studies\, Department of Afroamerican and African Studies\, Islamic Studies Program\, Islamophobia Working Group\, Women's Studies Department

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:WCED Lecture. Elections in Hard Times: Building Stronger Democracies in the 21st Century
DESCRIPTION:Why are 'free and fair' elections so often followed by democratic backsliding? Irfan Nooruddin answers this critical question\, showing why even clean elections fail to advance democracy when held amidst challenging structural conditions. This lecture will open with a comprehensive\, accessible synthesis of fifty years of research on elections and democratization\, a resource for experts\, policymakers\, and students. It then develops a new theory of why elections fail in countries with little democratic history or fiscal resources\, and a history of violent conflict. Nooruddin’s talk leverages an eclectic mix of cross-national data\, short case studies and surveys of voters to support this theory. \n    \nIrfan Nooruddin is the Hamad bin Khalifa Professor of Indian Politics and the Faculty Chair of the Walsh School of Foreign Service at Georgetown. He directs the Georgetown University India Initiative\, a university-wide initiative that advances research and teaching around India and its role in world affairs and creates a platform for high-level dialogue among American and Indian leaders from government\, business\, civil society\, and the academy. He is the author of \"Elections in Hard Times: Building Stronger Democracies in the 21st Century\" (Cambridge\, 2016) and \"Coalition Politics and Economic Development: Credibility and the Strength of Weak Governments\" (Cambridge\, 2011). Professor Nooruddin specializes in the study of comparative economic development and policymaking\, democratization and democratic institutions\, and international institutions. He has been a Fellow at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars in Washington\, DC\, and is a Team Member with Lokniti: Programme on Comparative Democracy at the Centre for the Study of Developing Societies\, New Delhi.

DESCRIPTION:Could anyone have foreseen the technical\, social\, and conceptual issues that have confronted the University of Michigan since its founding 200 years ago\, or the challenges it has faced in the last 100\, 50\, or even five years? In the marshaling of knowledge and expertise\, the greatest achievement of the University lies not in its continuity\, but in its ability to address the unforeseen. Drawing on the student work from the Taubman College Architecture Program\, “The Future Needs…Something Blue” addresses an idea of the future that lies not in the answers to questions we now know\, but in possibilities we are only now beginning to imagine. Sited at the Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning’s Liberty Research Annex\, the display is simultaneously shop window\, gallery\, and salon. Organized around a series of emergent themes it is an interactional space in which to view (in perspective\, parallax\, parallel\, and contrast) the multiple points of view that constitute the future.\n“The Future Needs…Something Blue” is curated by Associate Professor of Practice Julia McMorrough and Associate Professor John McMorrough of studioAPT (Architecture Practice Theory).\nReception will be held at the Liberty Research Annex (305 W. Liberty St.\, Ann Arbor). Exhibition on view September 20 - October 29.
