Brought to you by the Department of Afroamerican and African Studies (DAAS)\, GalleryDAAS celebrates the 50th anniversary of hip hop with “Hip Hop @ 50\,” an exhibition highlighting this constantly evolving phenomenon. Explore various aspects of hip hop culture\, including definitions\, dates\, divas\, the Detroit scene\, and a special tribute to J Dilla (James Dewitt Yancey)\, a prolific producer. Through examining the five pillars of hip hop — rapping\, break dancing\, DJing\, graffiti and historical knowledge — it becomes evident that what began as a musical genre has impacted society\, fashion\, language\, entertainment and even politics. Visitors will also be treated to a GREAT playlist! The gallery is open Monday–Friday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. UID:122094-21860325@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/122094 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,african and african american studies,african and afroamerican studies LOCATION:Haven Hall - G648 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240130T121551 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241024T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241024T200000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621424@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241115T181510 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241024T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241024T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Arbor Glyph DESCRIPTION:Arbor Glyph is an installation centered around a collective painting of trees\, created by Stamps students and activated by a colorful projection repurposing hand-painted elements and bringing them to life. The goal of the exhibition is to foster collaboration among student artists and engage the Stamps community\, encouraging participation through a student painting party earlier this month\, with a focus on inclusion\, expression\, and finding solace in local landscapes.The Student-led Exhibition Committee (SEC) is a newly-formed group of students\, faculty\, and staff\, aiming to create more opportunities for undergrads to exhibit on campus. Arbor Glyph follows their Winter 2024 salon-style exhibition L'Assemblage in the Stamps Art &\; Architecture Building\, further developing students' experience planning extracurricular exhibitions by showing in the Stamps Gallery\, and taking a new approach to creating/curating artwork.

The exhibition highlights the significance of community-based conversations between mother and daughter\, and their ongoing conversations with elders (ancestors)\, young folx\, and future generations as vital aspects of their methodology. These conversations often take place during basket gatherings - where community members come together and share stories and teachings that can encompass Anishinaabe creation stories\, as well as those of survivance and resilience\, to inform the materiality and liveness of their work. The curatorial and interpretive framework of this exhibition contends that the deeply situated and temporal works by Church (Stamps\, BFA 1998) and Parrish (LSA\, BA 2020) are repositories for Anishinaabe ways of knowing\, thinking\, and making that contribute to the complexity of American art and its histories. The expansive and bold practices of Church and Parrish affirm the sovereignty of Anishinaabe lifeways and the importance of including Indigenous narratives that have systematically been left out. Thus\, the thematic survey of their work will explore the under-examined themes that inform their work such as Native women’s labor as carriers of culture and knowledge-keepers\, the legacy of boarding schools and ancestors who walked on\, the treaties in Michigan and the long-overlooked legacy of Anishinaabe intellectual life and their relevance today. Just like the practice of weaving and interlacing distinct strips of black ash to create one whole\, Church and Parrish will address the diverse and interconnected themes with approximately 30-35 works\, including 15-17 new works. Together\, the exhibition offers an incisive critique of the colonial\, racist paradigm of systemic erasure and assimilation that continues to this day\, with the ongoing crises of missing and murdered Indigenous women\, culture wars\, and climate change that threaten Indigenous ways of living\, sustenance\, and making. \nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra with Curatorial Assistant Zoi Crampton.\nStamps Gallery is grateful to Michigan Humanities and U-M Arts Initiative for generously supporting the exhibition and programs.

We present a new system for the control of 2D Rydberg atom arrays embedded in a cryogenic environment. Our high optical access system is compatible with long vacuum lifetime\, high-fidelity atomic manipulation\, and reduction of blackbody-driven Rydberg decay. I present measurements of ground-state and initial Rydberg manipulation in our cold box\, as well as long-lived atoms in a cryopumped vacuum with which we study single-atom imaging of rubidium with high survival\, an important component of high-fidelity atom rearrangement. I discuss plans to harness similar long-lived vacuum conditions for addressing one source of loss and heating in Fermi gases. I also outline our ongoing efforts in controlling external degrees of freedom in an optical tweezer traps in the context of cooling\, light-assisted collisions\, and non-classical motional states.

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

Using examples from Japan\, this talk examines how and why menstrual management practices are technologized\, as well as the potential impacts of this for everyday consumers.\n \n Maura Stephens-Chu received her Ph.D. and MA in Anthropology from the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa. She specializes in medical and cultural anthropology\, with an emphasis on embodied experiences of menstruation in contemporary Japan. Broadly\, Maura’s multidisciplinary and intersectional research includes theoretical and methodological approaches from anthropology\, Japanese studies\, gender studies\, history\, and science and technology studies. She has conducted extensive ethnographic research in Tokyo\, Japan on young women’s perceptions\, education\, and personal experiences of menstruation and commercial menstrual products. Her historical analysis of Japanese menstrual taboos\, “From Sacred to Secret: Tracing Changes in Views of Menstruation in Japan\,” can be found in the open access journal *Silva Iaponicarum.* Currently\, Maura is researching the formation of both layperson and medical understandings of conditions that fall under the umbrella of menstrual “irregularity\,” including endometriosis\, amenorrhea\, and severe dysmenorrhea. She is also interested in media representations of premenstrual syndrome\, as well as the impact on personal health and privacy from the proliferation of smartphone apps for tracking menstrual cycles.\n \n This lecture is made possible with the generous support of the U.S. Department of Education Title VI grant.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at umcjs@umich.edu.

Now many fear that strong partisan views\, particularly hostility to the opposing party\, are damaging democracy. We address this concern with a nuanced evaluation of when and how partisan animosity matters in today’s highly charged\, dynamic political environment\, drawing on panel data from some of the most tumultuous years in recent American history\, 2019 through 2021. Partisanship powerfully shapes political behaviors\, but its effects are conditional\, not constant. Instead\, it is most powerful when politicians send clear signals and when an issue is unlikely to bring direct personal consequences. In the absence of these conditions\, other factors often dominate decision-making. Hence\, while partisan hostility has degraded US politics—for example\, politicizing previously non-political issues and undermining compromise—it is not in itself an existential threat. American democracy depends on how politicians\, more than ordinary voters\, behave.

As success in this regard would yield powerful bioengineered constructs useful in functional transplantation\, high-throughput drug screening\, and fundamental biology investigation\, research efforts in our lab have centered around developing and implementing tools to spatiotemporally customize living cell function both from the “outside–in” and from the “inside–out”. In this talk\, I will discuss some of our group’s recent successes in reversibly modifying the chemical and physical aspects of synthetic cell culture platforms with user- defined and grayscale control\, regulating cell-biomaterial interactions through user-programmable Boolean logic\, engineering microvascular networks that span nearly all size scales of native human vasculature (including capillaries)\, irreversibly photoassembling bioactive proteins within living cells\, and driving biomolecular condensate formation using de novo-designed proteins. Results will highlight our ability to modulate intricate cellular behavior including stem cell differentiation\, protein secretion\, and cell-cell interactions in 4D.\n\nSpeaker Bio: Dr. Cole A. DeForest is the Weyerhaeuser Endowed Associate Professor in the Departments of Chemical Engineering and Bioengineering\, the Associate Chair and Graduate Program Director of Chemical Engineering\, the Director of Education of the Molecular Engineering &\; Sciences Institute\, as well as a core faculty member of the Institute for Stem Cell &\; Regenerative Medicine at the University of Washington (UW) where he began in 2014.

The aim is to understand how these presences contribute to fostering meaningful cognitive engagement in collaborative VR learning environments. Virtual Reality offers unique opportunities to enhance teaching and learning\, especially in engineering education\, where it can scale learning environments and enrich student experiences. However\, effective learning in VR requires the integration of social presence to optimize engagement and cognitive development. As learning in VR is still an emerging field\, there is a need for more research to understand how to effectively facilitate cognitive presence in these environments.\n\nResearch participants engaged in land-surveying tasks using a desktop VR platform\, following the CoI framework\, and completed questionnaires about their learning experience. Path analysis of two models was conducted to assess the predictive and mediating effects of teaching and social presence on cognitive presence. The findings indicate that both social and teaching presence significantly predict cognitive presence\, with social presence emerging as a stronger predictor and mediator. Nevertheless\, teaching presence also played a meaningful role in shaping cognitive presence in both models. These results have important implications for leveraging VR learning environments to support collaborative and cognitively engaging educational experiences.

The process of acceleration is an intrinsically multi-scale problem\, connecting plasma microphysics at the shock to self-generated instabilities driven by accelerated particles far from the shock. With the development of ab-initio numerical simulations\, many details of the shock acceleration mechanism can now be studied directly. In this talk I will review the progress in kinetic (particle-in-cell\, PIC) simulations of shock structure and particle acceleration in various regimes\, and focus on processes that lead to electron acceleration in non-relativistic shocks\, including field amplification\, electron heating\, and nonlinear regulation of shock injection. The lessons learned from microscopic PIC simulations suggest pathways to larger simulations that use augmented MHD techniques to study shock acceleration on the scales of astrophysical objects. I will discuss such MHD-PIC approaches and applications of current results to morphologies and spectra of nonthermal emission from supernova remnants and galaxy clusters.

Like the figure of the undead returning to another time or place\, revenant concepts reappear in a different form than they originally occupied in the cultural imaginary. Unlike the human revenant\, which tends to evoke feelings of dread\, horror\, or the vertiginous nausea of the uncanny\, the cultural revenant allows for elision\, even erasure. However\, these sites contain traces of a historical/ideological cartography\, one I call revenant genealogy . . . This paper traces the path of Shakespeare’s The Winter’s Tale from playtext/scripted drama to dance as a means of understanding the complex arterial system that revenancies create and traverse. . . Freed from linguistic logic and etymological lineage\, danced Shakespeare offers unique insights into this alternative form of historical genealogy and provides a model for a more capacious form of humanities-based analysis. \n\nProfessor Amy Rodgers (Mount Holyoke) teaches classes on film and performance history and theory\, adaptation studies\, gender and sexuality in film and media\, Shakespeare and performance\, and the history of trauma on stage and screen. She is a co-founder of the Shakespeare and Dance Project and the director of the Bread Loaf School of English’s Global Humanities Seminar at Monterey\, CA. Her research encompasses the fields of audience studies\, adaptation studies\, and interdisciplinary influences across artistic and narrative forms\, such as dance\, music\, literature\, film and media. \n\nHer first book\, A Monster with a Thousand Hands: The Discursive Spectator in Early Modern England was published by the University of Pennsylvania Press in 2018\, and she has published numerous articles on Shakespearean adaptation in film\, television\, dance\, and music. Currently\, she is working on a monograph with dance critic Leigh Witchel on ballet and critical theory entitled Embodying the Signifier: Classical Ballet\, Critical Theory and Performance.

Yılmaz investigates how Ottoman security perceptions and travel regulations were directly linked to transnational security regimes battling against anarchism. The Hamidian government targeted “internal threats” to the regime with security policies that created new categories of suspects benefiting from the concepts of vagrant\, conspirator\, and anarchist. Yılmaz explores how mobility restrictions and the use of passports became critical to targeting groups including Armenians\, Bulgarians\, seasonal and foreign workers\, and revolutionaries. Taking up these new policies on surveillance\, mobility\, and control\, Ottoman Passports offers a timely look at the origins of contemporary immigration debates and the historical development of discrimination\, terrorism\, and counterterrorism.\n \n Bio: İlkay Yılmaz is currently a DFG (German Research Foundation) funded research associate at the department of Modern History at Freie Universität Berlin. She was an Einstein Senior Researcher at the same department. She was a research associate at Leibniz-Zentrum Moderner Orient between 2017-19 with Humboldt Scholarship and between 2014-15 with TUBITAK (The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey) scholarship. She was working as an assistant professor at Istanbul University from 2014 until 2017. Her articles have appeared in Journal of Historical Sociology\, Middle Eastern Studies\, Journal of Ottoman and Turkish Studies\, Photoresearcher-Journal of European Society for History of Photography. Her research interests focus on the history of security\, passport history\, inter-imperial collaboration on policing\, state formation and history of violence in the late Ottoman Empire.\n \n Suggested Pre-Read: Ottoman Passports: Security and Geographic Mobility\, 1876-1908 by Ilkay Yilmaz\n \n Cosponsors:\n Multidisciplinary Workshop for Armenian Studies\, U-M\n UCLA Promise Armenian Institute\n Armenian Studies Program\, University of California\, Berkeley\n Armenian Studies Program\, Fresno State University\n Middle East Studies Department\, Stanford University\n\nRegister here: https://umich.zoom.us/j/96004855164 UID:124873-21853972@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/124873 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:armenian,Armenian Studies,Discussion,Lecture LOCATION:Weiser Hall - 555 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241020T160929 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241024T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241024T170000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Rep Stability/Comm Alg Seminar: HSL Numbers for Local Cohomology of Pointed Semigroup Rings DESCRIPTION:Abstract: The Hartshorne-Speiser-Lyubeznik number (HSL number) is a nilpotency index for modules with a Frobenius action. One important class of such modules is the local cohomology modules of a ring of positive characteristic. The HSL numbers of these local cohomology modules are closely connected to the class of F-nilpotent singularities\, which is of interest in part due to its connection to other F-singularities. In this talk we present an explicit upper bound for the HSL numbers of the local cohomology modules of a positive characteristic pointed semigroup ring.

The reception will be open until 7:00 PM in the Rackham Graduate School Assembly Hall.\nTITLE: A Little Goes a Long Way: Why Things That Are Unseen Are More Important Than Ever\nABSTRACT: Missing data is a mature subfield of statistics due in large part to the defining contributions of Michigan’s own Professor Little. It has also aged very well\, and the demand and need for principled solutions has never been greater. We will contemplate “things that are unseen” in a wide variety of contexts and consider the detailed example of the search for endotypes of sepsis\, a life-threatening medical condition with high mortality worldwide.\nAbout Dr. Herring: Amy H. Herring is Sara & Charles Ayres Distinguished Professor of Statistical Science\, Global Health\, and Biostatistics and Bioinformatics at Duke University. Dr. Herring received her doctorate in biostatistics at Harvard University and came to Duke from UNC-Chapel Hill\, where she was distinguished professor of biostatistics. Her research interests include development of statistical methodology for longitudinal or clustered data\, Bayesian methods\, latent class and latent variable models\, missing data\, complex environmental mixtures\, and applications of statistics in population health and medicine. She has received numerous awards for her work\, including the Mortimer Spiegelman Award from the American Public Health Association as the best applied public health statistician under age 40. Her research program is funded by NIH\, and she holds leadership positions at the national and international level\, including as Chair of the American Statistical Association's Section on Bayesian Statistical Science\, as President of the International Society for Bayesian Analysis\, and as a member of the Board of the International Biometric Society.

Throughout the country’s history\, minor third parties have coalesced around specific interests and ideologies but have rarely had major electoral success. However\, third parties have helped shape the platforms of the two major parties and have affected the results of multiple presidential elections. \n\nJoin Turn Up Turnout for a nonpartisan\, educational presentation to learn how Third Parties and Independent Candidates have and continue to shape politics in the United States.

Activists from all points of the political spectrum are turning to beloved cultural objects to stake a claim for their differing beliefs in a politically fraught moment.\n\nWhat is at stake in these conflicts? High Stakes Culture is a series that brings humanities perspectives to bear on current debates. Please join us for two events this fall (Oct. 10 & 24) as we ask: how and why does culture matter so much now?\n\nToday:\n\"Thinking Through Election Overload: Patriotism and Country Music: Who Owns What?\" with Mark Clague (Music)\, Dean Hubbs (Women's and Gender Studies\, Music)\, Lydia Kelow-Bennett (Afroamerican and African Studies) and moderator Matthew Countryman (Afroamerican & African Studies\, History).\n\nPlease join us for a conversation about country music\, patriotism\, and political divisions in the U.S. Country music has roots in rural working-class America and has often\, but not always\, been associated with beat-up pick-up trucks and conservative politics. In the last few years there has been a resurgence in the popularity of country music across the demographic and political spectrum. Might this signal new cultural common ground? Is there something to be learned from the past and the present of country music? Please join us for a conversation about music\, patriotism and personal and national identity formation. \n \nWe’ll ask questions like:\nWhat is country music\, today?\nWhy country music now? \nWhat is the cultural significance of Beyoncé’s “Cowboy Carter”? \nDoes the surge in popularity suggest new thinking about patriotism?\nCan country music help to bridge our cultural divides?

She redefines the boundaries of book design with her bold\, experimental approach. Educated in fine art and graphic design at AKI Art Academy\, Boom began her career at the Dutch Government Publishing and Printing Office before founding Irma Boom Office in 1991. With a portfolio of over 500 books\, she seamlessly blends design and editorial work\, challenging traditional conventions in both physical form and printed content. Notable among her projects is the 2136-page SHV Thing Book\, a monumental work published in English and Chinese.\n\nBoom makes use of various fabrication processes in her printed material such as embossing and die cuts. In her commissioned book for Chanel\, Boom printed an entire 300 page book devoid of ink\, using instead embossed text and image to create a semi-invisible narrative of Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel. Scent is another unusual feature Boom has utilized in her book design. Her conceptual book design for The Road Not Taken has 718 pages printed using ink mixed with a base of beef bouillon. Coffee filter paper is another material choice she has used. \n\nBoom’s innovative designs have earned her numerous accolades\, including the prestigious Gutenberg Prize\, making her the youngest ever laureate. Her works are part of permanent collections at institutions such as MoMA in New York\, the Art Institute of Chicago\, and the Centre Pompidou in Paris. Her complete oeuvre and archive are preserved in the Special Collections of the University of Amsterdam\, known as the living Archive. In 2014 Boom received the Johannes Vermeer Award (the Dutch state prize for the arts) from the Minister of Education\, Culture and Science. The jury unanimously awarded Boom for her unparalleled achievements in the field of graphic design. Boom is an honorary Doctor of the Royal College of Art in London for her inexhaustible contribution to the book.\n\nPresented in partnership with Design Core Detroit\, the U-M Library\, and the Ann Arbor District Library. This project was made possible by a grant from the Arts Initiative at the University of Michigan. Series presenting partners: Detroit PBS and PBS Books. Media partner: Michigan Radio.

He died at the age of thirty-two\, and in his lifetime he never had a pop hit. Yet since his death\, J Dilla has become a demigod: revered by jazz musicians and rap icons from Robert Glasper to Kendrick Lamar\; memorialized in symphonies and taught at universities. And at the core of this adulation is innovation: a new kind of musical time-feel that he created on a drum machine\, but one that changed the way “traditional” musicians play.\n\nIn Dilla Time\, Dan Charnas chronicles the life of James DeWitt Yancey\, from his gifted childhood in Detroit to his rise as a Grammy-nominated hip-hop producer\, to the rare blood disease that caused his premature death\; and follows the people who kept him and his ideas alive. He also rewinds the histories of American rhythms: from the birth of soul in Dilla’s own “Motown\,” to funk\, techno\, and disco. Here\, music is a story of Black culture in America and of what happens when human and machine times are synthesized into something new. Dilla Time is a different kind of book about music\, a visual experience with graphics that build those concepts step by step for fans and novices alike\, teaching us to “see” and feel rhythm in a unique and enjoyable way.\n\nDilla’s beats\, startling some people with their seeming “sloppiness\,” were actually the work of a perfectionist almost spiritually devoted to his music. This is the story of the man and his machines\, his family\, friends\, partners\, and celebrity collaborators. Culled from more than 150 interviews about one of the most important and influential musical figures of the past hundred years\, Dilla Time is a book as delightfully detail-oriented and unique as J Dilla’s music itself.\n\nBiography:\nDan Charnas is an American author\, radio host\, and record company executive. He is considered to have played a role in the creation of hip-hop journalism.\n\nA native of New York City\, Charnas graduated with honors from Boston University in 1989 with a bachelor's degree in communications. In 2007\, Charnas earned a master's degree from the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism. His master's thesis was titled Shocked: Birthright Unplugged challenges Birthright Israel in an epic battle for the hearts and minds of American Jews.\n\nAs a radio personality\, Charnas hosted a segment on KPWR in Los Angeles. As a journalist he was a writer for the hip-hop magazine The Source.He became a talent scout for Profile Records and later ran the rap division of American Recordings in a joint venture with Warner Bros. Records.\n\nIn 2010 he wrote the book The Big Payback about the history of the hip-hop business.\n\nIn 2022 his book Dilla Time\, on the life and works of hip-hop producer J Dilla\, was published.\n\nCharnas is an associate professor at the Tisch School of the Arts at New York University and has been a thesis advisor at the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism.-Wikipedia UID:127994-21860024@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/127994 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Afroamerican,Detroit,Hip-hop,Music,African American,african and african american studies,african and afroamerican studies,African Diaspora LOCATION:Haven Hall - 648G GalleryDAAS CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241024T172043 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241024T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241024T200000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:M-CLIC presents: The \"CLIC-N-CUTZ\" Barbershop Series (10/24/24) DESCRIPTION:Men of Color Leading & Investing in Community (M-CLIC) presents: \"The CLIC-N-CUTZ\" Barbershop Series! Topic: \"First-Gen Men: The Unknown and the Underdogs!\"Featuring Special Guest: Dr. Norris Chase\, Director of First-Generation Commitment\, LSA Undergraduate Education\nJoin us for an engaging discussion focusing on the unique challenges and experiences of first-generation men of color in higher education.

The group recorded a demo before eventually signing with R.E.X. Records. Their debut LP\, The Fatherless & the Widow\, appeared in 1993 and their sophomore effort\, 1995’s This Beautiful Mess won a Dove Award and was followed by the Tickets for a Prayer Wheel EP. \n\nIn 1997\, Sixpence None the Richer released their self-titled album and two years later exploded globally when the track “Kiss Me”\, from that album\, was released as a single. The song has been featured in countless movies and TV shows and catapulted Sixpence None the Richer’s starpower into the mainstream\, earning airplay in more than ten different countries.\n\nAccolades continued as the band’s rendition of the La’s “There She Goes” also became a major hit. In fall 2002\, Sixpence None the Richer returned to form with Divine Discontent. The band’s cover of the Crowded House classic “Don’t Dream It’s Over” pushed Sixpence None the Richer’s name back into the charts in early 2003. Although the group quietly disbanded in 2004\, they remained active as individuals and continued to release music periodically\, including the albums Dawn of Grace and Lost in Transition.\n\nFast forward to 2024 and all-original members (Leigh Nash\, Matt Slocum\, Dale Baker\, and Justin Cary) have reunited and are writing and recording new music and preparing for a world tour. As a taste of the new music\, you can hear “The Tide” released in late 2023 as Leigh Nash + Sixpence None The Richer\, which has already amassed over 2 Million views and streams across platforms. Curb Records is also celebrating the 25th Anniversary of the band’s self-titled (Kiss Me) album by re-releasing it in a collectible vinyl series that also features the new track\, “The Tide”.\n\nSixpence None The Richer has helped shape the musical landscape across generations and are gearing up for an exciting road ahead.\n\nhttps://www.sixpencenonethericher.com/ UID:122586-21849416@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/122586 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Ark,Concert,Music,Mutotix LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241215T120008 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T235959 SUMMARY:Meeting:Check Out the P4P Public Calendar Here DESCRIPTION:bit.ly/p4pumcalendar UID:127131-21858483@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/127131 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION:Online CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241028T120015 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T060000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T235959 SUMMARY:Other:Nickerson DESCRIPTION:regatta UID:127510-21859244@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/127510 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION:Bacow Sailing Pavilion CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241026T180017 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T073000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T235959 SUMMARY:Other:Music City Head Race DESCRIPTION:The team tries not to lose a skeg on the Vandy goalpost.  UID:128148-21860240@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/128148 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION:Nashville, Tennessee CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241016T102255 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T220000 SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:October Movie Night DESCRIPTION:Take a break from the whirlwind of midterms with a movie night at Vicky Barner!

Since 2004\, Glazer has been lead faculty and head of ceramics at Henry Ford College\, and former faculty of Concord College (WV) and North Dakota State University. His artwork has been exhibited throughout the country.\n\nThroughout his adult life the art of Steve Glazer has been done as a response to his environment. From a series of shadow box type pieces containing life like ceramic fish while teaching at a Catholic woman’s college\, to building 8’ tall ceramic “skyscrapers” that barely fit into the display spaces while teaching in North Dakota\, where no skyscrapers exist\, and then creating installations commenting on living in Appalachia while teaching in southern West Virginia. After returning home to Detroit\, Glazer began his griot series\, the “Motor City Griot Society” masks\, the faces of the superheroes that will save Detroit\, and more recently the “Motor City Griot Patrol” creatures that will protect the city of Detroit.

Simultaneously she strives to make the medium influence the outcome in such a way that cloth and image meld together.

The institute's presentation of *The Butch Closet* is the second iteration of the project\, offering a more intimate and immersive engagement with Phranc's sculptural works. As part of the installation\, visitors can peer into a closet built in the center of the gallery designed by the artist. Conceptually\, the space shifts from inside to outside\, public and private\, and explores themes of visibility and that which remains inaccessible or unseen.\n\nAbout the artist:\nPhranc is a jewish lesbian folksinger and queer artist who uses song\, painting and sculpture to champion personal identities and illustrate the struggle\, survival\, and victory of the queer individual. An internationally acclaimed and award winning performer. Phranc’s work integrates humor and a butch lesbian aesthetic. Her current project\, Phranc Talk: The Butch Closet\, is a multi-media memoir that spans her 40-year career. Phranc lives and works in Santa Monica\, California and Vancouver\, British Columbia.\n\n*Phranc is the 2024 Woodhead Visiting Artist at the Institute for the Humanities.* UID:123255-21850642@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/123255 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:american culture,Art,Exhibition,Feminism,Gender,Humanities,LGBT,visual arts LOCATION:Thayer Academic Building - Institute for the Humanities Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240130T121550 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T200000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Gathering DESCRIPTION:Welcome.

Please contact kimjulie@umich.edu with any questions or accommodation needs.\n\nOf her lecture\, Leslie says\, \"In writing characters—and writing ourselves as characters—how can we create figures on the page that are as complex as the people we meet and love and loathe in real life? How can we write every character so that she contains not just one self but many selves? If you think of every character as a guesthouse\, who would all the guests be? Who are all the selves dwelling inside? This craft lecture will explore the construction of character as a dilemma (and thrill!) facing that fiction and nonfiction writers alike: When you write first-person narratives\, how can you construct your own character on the page as something multiple\, complex\, and surprising? How can you make room for as many versions of yourself as possible—as many versions are necessary? How does paying close attention to experience—to any scene\, any relationship\, any memory—not just invite but demand this multiplicity of selfhood\, in fiction and nonfiction alike: that every character be not one way\, but many ways\; that she want not just one thing\, but many things\; that she do something not for one reason\, but for many reasons. How can we imagine every character not just as one version of herself but as many versions of herself\, a crowded room full of many different figures: the ghosts of prior selves\, the fantasies of future selves\, the self in all its various relationships\, a quicksilver presence transforming across roles and time.\"\n\n\nLeslie S. Jamison is a *New York Times* bestselling author whose writing blends personal narrative\, cultural criticism\, and literary reportage. Her two essay collections\, *The Empathy Exams* (2014) and *Make It Scream\, Make It Burn* (2019) explore loneliness\, intimacy\, and the limits of shared feeling. Her critical memoir\, *The Recovering* (2018)\, grapples with the relationships between addiction\, creativity\, and recovery\; and her novel\, *The Gin Closet* (2010)\, explores family estrangement across multiple generations. Her latest book\, the memoir Splinters: Another Kind of Love Story\, explores the intersections between caregiving\, life ruptures\, and the creative impulse.\n\nA regular writer for *The New Yorker* magazine\, Jamison has contributed to many publications including *The New York Times Magazine*\, *Harper’s*\, *The New York Review of Books*\, *Virginia Quarterly Review*\, and *The New York Times Book Review*\, where she was a regular columnist for several years.

Ensuring the identifiability of latent factors and the loading matrix is essential for the model's estimability and interpretability\, and various identifiability conditions have been employed by practitioners. However\, fundamental statistical inference issues for latent factors and factor loadings under commonly used identifiability conditions remain largely unaddressed. In this work\, we focus on the maximum likelihood estimation for generalized factor models and establish statistical inference properties under popularly used identifiability conditions. The developed theory is further illustrated through numerical simulations and an application to a personality assessment dataset.\n\nhttps://sites.google.com/umich.edu/gongjunxu UID:124541-21853171@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/124541 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:seminar LOCATION:West Hall - 340 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240923T205148 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T143000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Story Lab Fall Retreats DESCRIPTION:ABOUT\nStory Lab develops executive-level presence and communication skills through storytelling workshops and events.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621425@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241025T102043 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T103000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T120000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:[Race\, Gender\, and Feminist Philosophy] Oct 25: Simone de Beauvoir’s Analogical Approach DESCRIPTION:Hi all\, \nThanks to those of you who attended yesterday for a great discussion! \nOur next meeting will be in 4 weeks (as there won't be a meeting just before the Fall break) on Oct 25\, at 10:30 am in 2271 Angell.

The exhibition highlights the significance of community-based conversations between mother and daughter\, and their ongoing conversations with elders (ancestors)\, young folx\, and future generations as vital aspects of their methodology. These conversations often take place during basket gatherings - where community members come together and share stories and teachings that can encompass Anishinaabe creation stories\, as well as those of survivance and resilience\, to inform the materiality and liveness of their work. The curatorial and interpretive framework of this exhibition contends that the deeply situated and temporal works by Church (Stamps\, BFA 1998) and Parrish (LSA\, BA 2020) are repositories for Anishinaabe ways of knowing\, thinking\, and making that contribute to the complexity of American art and its histories. The expansive and bold practices of Church and Parrish affirm the sovereignty of Anishinaabe lifeways and the importance of including Indigenous narratives that have systematically been left out. Thus\, the thematic survey of their work will explore the under-examined themes that inform their work such as Native women’s labor as carriers of culture and knowledge-keepers\, the legacy of boarding schools and ancestors who walked on\, the treaties in Michigan and the long-overlooked legacy of Anishinaabe intellectual life and their relevance today. Just like the practice of weaving and interlacing distinct strips of black ash to create one whole\, Church and Parrish will address the diverse and interconnected themes with approximately 30-35 works\, including 15-17 new works. Together\, the exhibition offers an incisive critique of the colonial\, racist paradigm of systemic erasure and assimilation that continues to this day\, with the ongoing crises of missing and murdered Indigenous women\, culture wars\, and climate change that threaten Indigenous ways of living\, sustenance\, and making. \nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra with Curatorial Assistant Zoi Crampton.\nStamps Gallery is grateful to Michigan Humanities and U-M Arts Initiative for generously supporting the exhibition and programs.

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

This workshop\, presented by the Mary A. Rackham Institute (MARI) mental health clinics\, is to help educate adults who suspect they may have ASD. The online workshop also explores when ASD testing is recommended\, what to expect with testing\, and resources for next steps.

Deeply contextualized insights into how ancient peoples perceived their worlds can result. In southern Africa’s most richly painted area – the Maloti-Drakensberg Mountains – spectacular images were being made just as the region experienced dynamic changes owing in part to climate. Responses of local foragers are evident across a range of cultural spheres\, including dramatic subsistence transformations. Here I explore how such changes articulated with ontological shifts in relation to the food quest. As desirable game declined and hunting windows narrowed\, I suggest that Neoglacial (∼3.5–2 kcal BP) foragers sought to manage scheduling and social conflicts through enhanced spiritual negotiation with non-human entities in the landscape. Facilitated by the supernaturally charged nature of their elevated cosmos\, this intensified spiritual labor found material expression\, I argue\, in an elaborate new style of painting. Where possible\, adopting emic perspectives rooted in what I call \"ecological ontology” is fundamental for decoding past hunter-gatherer lifeways.

Had it not been cancelled just two days before it was scheduled to occur on June 25th\, 2024\, it would have been the first visit to the museum by Mirziyoyev since he assumed the presidency in 2016. Rushed preparations initiated a host of changes inside the museum pertaining to its exhibitions. Most critically\, one month prior to the anticipated visit\, the museum closed to the public and all of its displays from the Stone Age to the 16th century were changed. \n\nI will touch on issues ranging from leaking ceilings to breaking objects\, as well as to the broader discussions and arguments that occurred in the museum over what a “modern” museum is supposed to be and what elements of the old exhibitions still fit the demands of current national narratives. In doing so\, I will show the museum’s close relationship to the state\, not only as the provider of financial funds\, but also\, in many ways\, as the museum’s main anticipated audience. With my dissertation focusing on the history of this museum from 1876 until the collapse of the Russian empire in 1917\, in this talk I will present a brief historical overview that will allow me to chart the museum’s navigation from the Tsarist period to the Soviet period\, and to the current moment.

DESCRIPTION:Did U.S. corporations embrace racial justice in reaction to the murder of George Floyd and mass Black Lives Matter (BLM) protests? Drawing on both network and organizational theories we conceptualize this as a problem of organizational decision making. We first document the range of responses by US Fortune 500 companies and the deploy latent class analysis (LCA) to categorize responses. Sixty percent of the Fortune 500 stayed silent and 21% made primarily symbolic responses. Right wing fears of a movement toward “woke” capitalism seem premature. On the other hand\, 19% of the Fortune 500 made substantial commitments of time and money to promote racial justice. We model this variation as a function of the attributes of internal decision makers and external audiences. Controlling for prior pro-social behavior and firm size\, we find that the strongest covariates to making a muscular response to racial justice claims came from firms whose DEI staff were central to the national network of DEI professionals and were led by politically liberal CEOs. Being a consumer brand has a weaker but statistically significant relationship with muscular responses. Having more Black executives in headquarters is associated with symbolic\, but not muscular or silent\, responses to BLM protest. Firms led by conservative CEOs were more likely to stay silent.

Phase synchronization is affected by spatial arrangement\, and spatial motion is affected by phase synchronization. Swarmalators have recently been realized in robotics labs\, and may also play a role in describing collective behavior of biological organisms. In this work I will describe the effects of time delay in interactions on collective dynamics of a population of swarmalators. Delay resulted in the appearance of new collective states. One such state is a pseudo-crystaline structure - in which swarmalators form a quasi-static cluster\, and another is a boiling state in which swarmalators near the boundary of the cluster perform convective motions. In both cases\, the route to these states takes place through an oscillatory transient in which the whole cluster “breathes”. Remarkably\, just a pair of nonlinear equations (in a system of N swarmalators) describes the behavior of the cluster during this transient. This system also exhibits an intriguing aging phenomenon. I will describe the specific mechanism by which the system ages - which involves gradual increase in the hexatic order parameter\, accompanied by a series of annihilations of coordination number defect pairs. \n\nContact: Evgeniy Khain (Oakland University) UID:121471-21846583@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/121471 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Mathematics LOCATION:East Hall - 1084 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241018T105332 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T160000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Arctic Curves of T-system with Slanted Initial Data (combinatorics seminar) DESCRIPTION:We study the T-system of type 𝐴∞\, also known as the octahedron recurrence/equation\, viewed as a 2 + 1-dimensional discrete evolution equation. Generalizing earlier work on arctic curves for the Aztec Diamond obtained from solutions of the octahedron recurrence with “flat\" initial data\, we consider initial data along parallel “slanted\" planes perpendicular to an arbitrary admissible direction (𝑟\, 𝑠\, 𝑡) in Z^3 . The corresponding solutions of the T-system are interpreted as partition functions of dimer models on some suitable “pinecone\" graphs introduced by Bousquet-Melou\, Propp\, and West in 2009. The T-system formulation and some exact solutions in uniform and periodic cases allow us to explore the scaling limit of the corresponding dimer models and to derive exact arctic curves separating the various phases of the system. This approach bypasses the standard general theory of dimers using the Kasteleyn matrix and uses instead the theory of Analytic Combinatorics in Several Variables.

Thus there are at most 3 points on such a curve in ℙⁿ_ℚ. In 1922\, Mordell conjectured that a similar result holds in general: if we take a complete smooth curve C of genus g>2 over a finite extension K of ℚ\, then the set C(K) of K−rational points is finite.\n\nWe will cover Gerd Faltings' proof of Mordell's conjecture\, now known as Faltings' Theorem. In broad strokes\, the K−rational points on the curve C correspond to abelian varieties over K of specified dimension and bad reduction. We discuss how to show only finitely many isomorphism classes of these abelian varieties exist\; this generalizes a known result for global fields of prime characteristic to characteristic zero.

The Dufek Intrusion of Antarctica is one of the largest layered intrusions\, intruded approximately 182 Myr ago during the breakup of Gondwana. It is rivaled in thickness only by the 2.05 Ma Bushveld Complex of South Africa and shows a similar progression in mineral compositions from primitive at the base to more evolved compositions at the uppermost contact with an overlying granophyre layer. This progression in mineral composition suggests that the Dufek magma chamber crystallized from the bottom to the top. In this talk\, I will present new high-precision U-Pb zircon ages throughout the 8+ km thick Dufek Intrusion magma chamber stratigraphy. The results are surprising - zircons from the bottom of the intrusion record systematically younger ages than those from the top. I will argue that zircons from layered mafic intrusions do not provide a record of high temperature crystallization\, but rather the ages reflect the solidification of interstitial melt in the magma chamber from the top down.

He specializes in psycholinguistics\, and his current NSF-funded research focuses on revealing how speakers assemble sentence structures in production in two different languages\, English and Japanese. Before joining UMass\, he was at the Department of Psychology at the University of California\, San Diego\, working with Victor Ferreira and Tamar Gollan. Before that\, he did his Ph. D with Colin Phillips in the Department of Linguistics at the University of Maryland\, College Park.\n\nTitle: Building sentence structures in speaking\nAbstract: We have theories of grammatical knowledge and theories of how people produce sentences. These two theories\, however\, are not well integrated. In this talk\, I will attempt to present an integrated theory of structure building in sentence production and grammatical knowledge. I will discuss our group’s recent research on how speakers formulate various types of sentence structure that played central roles in the development of grammatical theories\, such as relative clauses (e.g.\, the cat that the girl thinks the dog chased)\, wh-questions (e.g.\, what did the girl think the dog chased?)\, raising (e.g.\, the girl seems to like the dog)\, and control (e.g.\, the girl wants to hug the dog). Based on the results from these studies\, I will argue that there is a surprising parallelism between the notion of locality in grammatical theories and planning units in theories of sentence production. I will attempt to outline a theoretical framework that might allow us to integrate various findings from syntax\, sentence production\, and possibly\, sentence comprehension.\n\nThis event will be hybrid held in East Hall 4448 & Zoom.

Cherry\, Ph.D.\nDepartment of Biomedical Engineering\nDepartment of Radiology\nUniversity of California\, Davis\, USA\n\nPositron emission tomography (PET) imaging is an important clinical tool for staging and monitoring treatment response in cancer patients and has a broad range of other diagnostic and research applications. Roughly 10 million diagnostic PET scans are performed worldwide\, annually and the number is growing quite rapidly.\n\nAdvances in radiation detector technology have led to new generations of PET systems that demonstrate a quantum leap in imaging performance\, and in doing so open new opportunities for the application of PET in biomedical research and in the clinic. State-of-the-art total body and brain PET scanners will be reviewed.\n\nCurrent innovations in radiation detector research offer the prospect of future opportunities to further improve the performance of PET scanners\, with a specific focus on time-of-flight performance. Examples include fast timing from dense room-temperature semiconductors and the use of promptCherenkov luminescence as a fast-timing trigger. The first steps towards detectors capable of real-time and reconstruction-free imaging of positron-labeled radiopharmaceuticals will be presented. Such systems would approach the theoretical performance limits for imaging radiotracers and permit novel imaging geometries\, providing an exquisitely sensitive and quantitative imaging tool for biomedical research in human subjects.\n\n\n\nBIO\n\nSimon R. Cherry\, Ph.D. received his B.Sc.(Hons) in Physics with Astronomy from University College London in 1986 and a Ph.D. in Medical Physics from the Institute of Cancer Research\, University of London in 1989. In 1993\, he became a faculty member in the Department of Molecular and Medical Pharmacology at UCLA. Simon joined UC Davis in 2001\, and is currently Distinguished Research Professor in the Departments of Biomedical Engineering and Radiology.\n\nSimon’s research interests center around biomedical imaging. His major accomplishments have been in developing systems for positron emission tomography\, for example as co-leader of the EXPLORER consortium which developed the world’s first total-body PET scanner. He also has contributed to detector technology innovations for PET\, conducted early biomedical studies using Cerenkovluminescence\, and developed the first proof-of-concept hybrid PET/MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) systems. \n\nSimon is an elected fellow of six professional societies and a Member of the National Academy of Engineering and National Academy of Inventors. He has received several international awards including the Society of nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging Cassen Prize in 2022. He served as Editor-in-Chief of the journal Physics in Medicine and Biology from 2011-2020. Simon is the author of more than 300 peer-reviewed journal articles\, review articles and book chapters in the field of biomedical imaging. He is also lead author of the widely-used textbook “Physics in Nuclear Medicine”.

He was born in Halifax\, Nova Scotia\, but has lived most of his life in southern California\, and those geographic poles are quite likely responsible for his unhinged genius. With a cult following that includes fellow musicians\, regular folks and festival goers who stumble onto his performances\, there’s no common denominator to Steve’s fans. Steve toured and recorded with San Diego cult favorites The Rugburns (they still play annual sold-out reunion shows). But it was through his creative partnership with Jewel that he vaulted into the national spotlight\; co-writing her multiplatinum Billboard Hot 100-busting smash\, “You Were Meant For Me\,” and continues to work with her to this day.\n\nOver the years\, Steve has built a fascinating solo catalog. No Depression crowned him\, \"A sardonic provocateur with a lighthearted acoustic-driven wit\, suggesting at times a sunnier\, less psychedelic Todd Snider\, or maybe a less wan\, washed Jackson Brown.” Among other collaborations\, GRAMMY-winning bluegrass phenom Billy Strings tapped him to co-write “Leaders” on 2021’s Renewal and he’s co-written with Molly Tuttle\, Sierra Hull\, Nicki Bluhm\, Oliver Wood and even Mojo Nixon.\n\nSteve’s newest album is Stardust & Satellites\, produced by Oliver Wood and Jano Rix of The Wood Brothers.

In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle.

The exhibition highlights the significance of community-based conversations between mother and daughter\, and their ongoing conversations with elders (ancestors)\, young folx\, and future generations as vital aspects of their methodology. These conversations often take place during basket gatherings - where community members come together and share stories and teachings that can encompass Anishinaabe creation stories\, as well as those of survivance and resilience\, to inform the materiality and liveness of their work. The curatorial and interpretive framework of this exhibition contends that the deeply situated and temporal works by Church (Stamps\, BFA 1998) and Parrish (LSA\, BA 2020) are repositories for Anishinaabe ways of knowing\, thinking\, and making that contribute to the complexity of American art and its histories. The expansive and bold practices of Church and Parrish affirm the sovereignty of Anishinaabe lifeways and the importance of including Indigenous narratives that have systematically been left out. Thus\, the thematic survey of their work will explore the under-examined themes that inform their work such as Native women’s labor as carriers of culture and knowledge-keepers\, the legacy of boarding schools and ancestors who walked on\, the treaties in Michigan and the long-overlooked legacy of Anishinaabe intellectual life and their relevance today. Just like the practice of weaving and interlacing distinct strips of black ash to create one whole\, Church and Parrish will address the diverse and interconnected themes with approximately 30-35 works\, including 15-17 new works. Together\, the exhibition offers an incisive critique of the colonial\, racist paradigm of systemic erasure and assimilation that continues to this day\, with the ongoing crises of missing and murdered Indigenous women\, culture wars\, and climate change that threaten Indigenous ways of living\, sustenance\, and making. \nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra with Curatorial Assistant Zoi Crampton.\nStamps Gallery is grateful to Michigan Humanities and U-M Arts Initiative for generously supporting the exhibition and programs.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621426@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240620T181506 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241026T110200 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241026T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Michelle Hinojosa: Logcabins DESCRIPTION:Stamps Gallery commissioned Michelle Hinojosa (MFA\, 2023) to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the Gallery. Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home\, placemaking\, labor\, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body\, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade\, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley\, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.\nArtist’s bio:\nMichelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist\, educator\, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas\, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting\, bead weaving\, embroidery\, jewelry\, transparent film installations\, painting\, ceramics\, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story\, re-make\, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx\, Chicanx\, Mexican\, and Texican peoples. \n\nRecently\, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan\, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania)\, Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen\, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas\, TX).

In 2020\, Lin Hwai-min handed the artistic reins of Cloud Gate to Cheng Tsung-lung\, whose work 13 Tongues recalls his mother’s stories about a legendary street artist in the 1960s. Cheng transforms his childhood memories of Taoist rites and the bustling street life of Bangka (艋舺)\, the oldest district in Taipei\, into a dreamlike fantasy world. Beginning and ending with the sound of a single hand bell\, the evocative musical score interweaves Taiwanese folk songs\, Taoist chant\, and electronica to bring us on a journey from the ancient to the contemporary.
