SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:2024 U-M Annual Data Science & AI Summit x ADSA Conference
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan Annual Data Science and AI Summit is the largest data science and AI event at U-M\, attracting attendees from more than 100 U-M departments and more than 80 industry\, government and community organizations annually.\n\nThis year\, MIDAS is hosting the Annual Summit in conjunction with the Academic Data Science Alliance Annual Conference. By partnering with the Academic Data Science Alliance (ADSA) this year\, we leverage the reach of this national organization for data science and AI institutes in academia\, expand the scope of our Summit\, and bring together data science and AI leadership\, researchers and educators from around the country. Thus\, this event offers a unique opportunity for local attendees to interact with hundreds of attendees from other universities\, hear talks from leading experts\, and participate in sessions on data science and AI research\, education and societal impact. \n\nOverview:\nThis year’s Annual Meeting theme is: Data Science and AI – Keeping Humans in the Loop\nData has become the essential building block for research and insight in nearly all fields. The next wave of emerging technologies\, including artificial intelligence (AI)\, is fueled by the unprecedented amount and variety of available data. Data and data-enabled technologies promise to reshape research and discovery\, as well as how we live and how society functions. ADSA’24\, hosted by the Michigan Institute for Data Science\, will draw our focus to humanity in data and AI – humans as data producers and data engineers\, humans as AI designers and developers\, humans represented in data\, and humans as data and AI users and as the beneficiaries or victims of data and AI. We will explore the central role of humans in the data and AI revolution: to maximize its benefits for research and innovation\; to ensure that the use of data and technologies and the insights they generate are aligned with our values and priorities\; and to ensure that the future workforce are prepared to continue discovery and innovation.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Guardians: Spirits of Protection
DESCRIPTION:This fall\, the Residential College Art Gallery proudly presents Guardians: Spirits of Protection\, an exhibition of evocative figurative sculptures by renowned artist Ann Savageau. The exhibition will be on display from August 26 to November 2\, 2024.\n\nWe invite the university community and the general public to explore this moving collection that delves into themes of loss\, grief\, healing\, and protection. The seventeen life-size figures\, crafted from found objects and beach flotsam\, are a poignant response to the tragedies in Savageau’s life\, including the loss of her three children. Through this deeply personal and powerful work\, Savageau reimagines discarded materials as symbols of new life and resilience\, reflecting the healing power of art.\n\nAnn Savageau will be in residence in Ann Arbor and the Residential College from September 16-20 and October 20-25\, 2024. During her stay\, you are warmly invited to join us for a special artist reception on October 23\, from 4:30 to 6:00 pm in the Gallery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mrs. Dalloway and WWI: Home Front and War Front
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit explores the characters of Mrs. Dalloway through the lens of WWI and its aftershocks. It looks at those who fought in the trenches and those who watched from afar.\n\n[The exhibit includes references to suicide and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder\, which might be distressing for some visitors. Viewer discretion is advised.]\n\nWhile all of the action in Virginia Woolf’s modernist masterpiece takes place on a single day\, as preparations are made for Clarissa Dalloway’s evening party\, Woolf’s stream of consciousness writing takes us in the characters’ minds all the way from English drawing rooms to colonial India to the trenches of World War I.\n\nCheck today's Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours: https://myumi.ch/PkQ2x

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Steve Glazer Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Steve Glazer earned his BFA in art with a concentration in ceramics from Eastern Michigan University\, a master’s degree in art from Central Michigan University\, and MFA in fine arts and ceramics from Indiana State University. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Susan Moran Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Susan Moran’s work is inspired by the natural world and our place in it.  She collects and arranges images\, builds and subtracts\, and uses processes that suit the concepts and gives the pieces a reason for existing as textiles.  Simultaneously she strives to make the medium  influence the  outcome in such a way that cloth and image meld together. Moran uses  silkscreen\, shibori\, and stitching to embed images from her daily walks into the fabric. it's important that the work builds slowly\, involving meditative processes that connect her to the cloth and the source of the design.\n\nGallery hours:  Monday-Friday\, 9 am to 5pm or by appointment serrag@med.umich.edu

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Welcome. Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. 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. Gather to feel full\, to be moved and inspired by all the possible imaginations of what is yet to come.\n \nCurated by Félix Zamora Gómez Irving Stenn\, Jr. Fellow in Public Humanities & Museum Pedagogy\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n

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 &amp\; Architecture Building\, further developing students' experience planning extracurricular exhibitions by showing in the Stamps Gallery\, and taking a new approach to creating/curating artwork.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Kelly Church & Cherish Parrish: In Our Words\, An Intergenerational Dialogue
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: September 13 – December 7\, 2024Opening Reception: September 19\, 2024\n\nKelly Church &amp\; Cherish Parrish: In Our Words\, An Intergenerational Dialogue is a major exhibition that centers the subjectivities of two contemporary Indigenous artists whose practices have sustained and bolstered the relevance of the age-old Anishinaabe practice of black ash basket-making in the 21st century. 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.

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

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

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Brown Bag Seminar |  Quasinormal ringdown in the SYK model
DESCRIPTION:Thermal correlators in large N systems equilibrate at late times\, but the precise late-time behavior is unknown away from holographic and free field limits. In this talk I will analyze this problem in the case of the SYK model away from the low-temperature limit\, finding a discrete spectrum of quasinormal modes. The basic technique is a resummation of perturbation theory which is reminiscent of the double cone construction. We will also discuss the interpretation of the result in terms of a dual stringy black hole.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Interdisciplinary QC-CM Seminar | Frustrated Assemblies: Describing matter from within
DESCRIPTION:Frustrated assemblies are comprised of ill-fitting building blocks whose favored local relative arrangement cannot be globally realized. In fact\, most self assembled structures contain some degree of frustration. In some cases\, the frustration is locally resolved and leads to little or no structural consequence\, while in other cases it dominates the assembly's size\, shape\, and response properties.\n\nIn this talk\, I will present different manifestations of geometric frustration as they naturally arise in molecular crystals\, liquid crystals\, spin systems\, and nanoparticle assemblies. To theoretically study these assemblies we resort to an intrinsic approach in which matter is described only through local properties available to an observer residing within the material. The frustration is then quantified by the geometric compatibility conditions whose structure allows us to classify the frustration and predict the assembly's behavior without explicitly solving for the ground state of the system.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Personal Connections and Hiring Decisions in the Public Sector (with Eleonora Patacchini)
DESCRIPTION:Relying on comprehensive employment records of applicants in the universe of public jobs in Brazil from 1986 until 2017\, an institutional reform that reduced discretion in hiring\, and novel performance metrics for public administration\, we provide the first evidence of how personal connections influence recruitment processes. We find that a reduction in the ability to leverage personal connections affects both the job search behavior of connected individuals and employers’ hiring decisions. Moreover\, hires after the reform are of higher quality\, have lower separation rates and absenteeism\, and are more likely to be promoted. We also show that the decrease in connected hires improves the operational and budgetary efficiency of public sector establishments. These results carry significance in enhancing our understanding of how to bolster state capacity.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | Mechanical Sensors for Dark Matter and Neutrinos
DESCRIPTION:The development of optomechanical systems—in which the motion of a massive object is controlled and measured using light—has revolutionized the detection of tiny forces over the past few decades. As such technologies reach\, and even surpass\, quantum measurement limits\, they can enable new searches for extremely weakly coupled phenomena including gravitational waves\, dark matter\, and sterile neutrinos.\n\nAs a demonstration of these techniques\, I will describe an initial search for dark matter using an optically levitated nanogram mass sensor\, which can exceed the sensitivity of even large underground detectors for certain classes of dark matter in just a few days of operation. If a signal were detected\, such sensors may be able to correlate its direction with earth’s motion through the galaxy\, allowing definitive confirmation that such a signal arose from dark matter. In addition\, I will discuss future applications of such sensors to neutrino physics in a table-top scale experiment. Results from a recent proof-of-principle measurement demonstrate that the force imparted by a single nuclear decay occurring within an optically levitated\, dust-sized particle can be detected.

SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:International Students Career Series: How to Navigate Small Talk
DESCRIPTION:In the United States\, many people participate in what is called \"small talk\"\, where you make conversation with strangers or acquaintances about non-controversial topics\, such as the weather\, sports\, or popular television shows. “Small talk” is one of the ways in American culture to chat about harmless topics in order to establish a connection and start to build a friendship. For example\, while waiting for an interview\, in line at a M-Den\, or in an elevator on campus\, don’t be startled if a stranger says something to you like\, “Did you watch the FootballGame last night? What a game!” They might also make a joke about the long line you’re both in\, or comment on the current situation. If you areinterested in learning more about \"small talk\"\, now it’s your chance to sign up for this workshop on how to navigate small talk as an international student. In this workshop\, we will educate you on what is small talk and you will also have the chance to practice small talk with Peers!

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MIPSE Seminar | From KMS Fusion to HB11 Energy\, Xcimer Energy\, and Fuse Federal USA\; A 50 Year Inertial Fusion Energy Perspective
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThe achievement of ignition and gain on NIF has validated the scientific basis of inertial confinement fusion (ICF). The Department of Energy (DOE) and venture capital funded private companies are again interested in inertial fusion energy (IFE). The new DOE Milestone-Based Fusion Development Program and other Federal programs are creating public–private partnerships to accelerate progress toward fusion pilot plants. The U.S. leads in ICF\, but the race to develop the first IFE power plant is an international competition. Private companies will need to play a leading role in developing the necessary technologies. This talk will provide a 50-year perspective as well as discuss promising strategies for the U.S. IFE program from both public and private viewpoints. It will also describe the re-search of three companies that I am advising: HB11 Energy Pty Ltd. (aneutronic proton–boron fuel cycle)\, 2) Xcimer Energy (IFE technology to achieve high laser energies)\, and 3) Fuse Federal (next generation pulsed power technologies for both defense and energy applications).\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nDr. Tom Mehlhorn is an advisor to several private fusion companies including HB11 Energy Pty LTD\, Xcimer Energy\, and Fuse Energy. He is also an adjunct professor of Nuclear Engineering and Radiological Sciences at the University of Michigan\, and a Distinguished Visiting Scientist at the University of Rochester Laboratory for Laser Energetics. From 2009 to 2019 he directed the Naval Research Laboratory Division of Plasma Physics\, following a 31-year career in pulsed power fusion and high energy density physics at Sandia National Laboratories. He is the author/coauthor of over 160 papers (H-index=43). He was recognized in 2004 with a University of Michigan Engineering Alumni Society Merit Award (NERS) and is a Fellow of the AAAS in Physics (2006)\, the APS Division of Plasma Physics (2011)\, the IEEE (2014)\, and the ANS (2020). In 2019 he received the IEEE Nuclear & Plasma Sciences Society Peter Haas Award and a Lockheed Martin NOVA Award for Thermonuclear Neutrons on Z in 2003.\n\nThe seminar will be conducted both in person and on Zoom.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Algebraic Geometry Seminar: On the stable birationality of Hilbert schemes of points on surfaces
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, we will address the question for which pairs of integers (n\,n') the variety Hilb^n_X  is stably birational to Hilb^n'_X\, when X is a surface with H^1(X\,O_X)=0. In order to do so we will relate the existence of degree n' effective cycles on X with the existence of degree n ones using curves on X. \nWe will then focus on geometrically rational surfaces\, proving that there are only finitely many stable birational classes among the Hilb^n_X 's. As a corollary\, we deduce the rationality of a generalization of the Hasse-Weil zeta function Z(X\, t) in K_0(Var/k)/([A^1_k])[[t]] when char(k) = 0.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:DCMB / CCMB Weekly Seminar presents Gamze Gursoy\, PhD (Columbia Univ. and New York Genome Center)
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Gürsoy’s lab’s overarching research goal is to harmonize diverse fields such as biology\, bioinformatics\, molecular biology\, engineering\, and cryptography to achieve two fundamental aims: (1) to increase biomedical data access to a wider group of scientists while preserving privacy of research participants\; and (2) to uncover the molecular underpinnings of gene dysregulation via knowledge gained from functional genomics data. They create modular and privacy-enhancing omics and clinical data analysis tools\, which can be adapted to new data modalities and analysis needs as they arise\, by combining knowledge in molecular biology and applied cryptography. They also develop computational and biochemical technologies to pinpoint genetic and epigenetic determinants of chromatin organization. Dr. Gürsoy leads a group of computational and experimental scientists\, creating opportunities for training in cross-disciplinary studies in her lab.

SUMMARY:Other:Nature Play Pop-Ups
DESCRIPTION:Based in Gaffield Children’s Garden at Matthaei Botanical Gardens\, Nature Play Pop-ups are opportunities for children across ages and developmental stages to engage deeply\, based on their own interests\, curiosity\, and developmental stages. For example\, while some older children may be using our collections of natural loose parts to intently create a specific habitat\, other children will be engaging in developmentally appropriate play of taking all the petals off the flowers in our loose parts collections. While some children will tenaciously experiment to create the largest bubbles\, other children will be nearby splashing in the slippery solution. All ways of playing are good & welcome Nature Play! Come play outside with us!

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:We've Seen This Struggle Before: Hubert Humphrey\, Gerald L.K. Smith\, and the Battle Between Democracy and Autocracy in Mid-Century America
DESCRIPTION:The deep ideological and political tensions in the United States today have historical antecedents. Some of them\, like the Civil War and the Vietnam War years\, are already well-known. But there was also a profound rift in the nation during the World War II years that were\, superficially\, a time of American unity. Two of the repeated antagonists in that period of polarization were Hubert Humphrey\, then the young\, liberal mayor of Minneapolis\, and Gerald L.K. Smith\, the self-proclaimed Christian Nationalist and founder of the America First political party. Drawing on his acclaimed book \"Into the Bright Sunshine: Young Hubert Humphrey and the Fight for Civil Rights\,\" professor and author Samuel G. Freedman takes us back to their confrontations in the 1940s—confrontations with many parallels applicable today.\n\nBiography:\n\nSamuel G. Freedman is an award-winning author\, columnist\, and professor. A former columnist for The New York Times and a professor at Columbia University\, he is the author of the ten acclaimed books. The most recent of them\, Into the Bright Sunshine: Young Hubert Humphrey and the Fight for Civil Rights\, won the 2024 Hillman Prize for Book Journalism.\n\nFreedman is the author of ten books\, including Small Victories: The Real World of a Teacher\, Her Students and Their High School\, a finalist for the 1990 National Book Award\, and The Inheritance: How Three Families and America Moved from Roosevelt to Reagan and Beyond\, a finalize for the 1997 Pulitzer Prize. Freedman was a staff reporter for The New York Times from 1981 through 1987. From 2004 through 2008 he wrote the paper’s “On Education” column\, and from 2006 through 2016 he wrote the “On Religion” column.\n\nA tenured professor at the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism\, Freedman was named the nation's outstanding journalism educator in 1997 by the Society of Professional Journalists. In 2012\, he received Columbia University’s coveted Presidential Award for Outstanding Teaching. Freedman holds a bachelor’s degree in journalism and history from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He lives in New York with his wife\, Christia Chana Blomquist.\n\nPresented by the Bentley Historical Library and the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies\, with additional support from Wallace House Center for Journalists.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Dinner for Democracy: Voting Access
DESCRIPTION:Note: this is an in-person event on the Ann Arbor campus.\n\nThe right to vote is the foundation of democracy in the United States. Laws determine who has the right to vote and who doesn’t. These laws have changed over time to both restrict and expand voting access. But voting access doesn’t just apply to who can vote\, it also applies to who will vote and the different barriers people face when trying to cast their ballot.\n\nJoin Turn Up Turnout for a nonpartisan\, educational presentation on Voting Access. FREE FOOD provided. \n\n Register here: https://sessions.studentlife.umich.edu/track/event/session/81558

Through his social and political works\, 2Fik creates lives for characters who almost seem real\, whose stories\, personalities\, and interests are rooted in our world. Each of his creations are conceived in a voyeuristic way that pushes the spectator to wonder what exists beyond the scope of the work. Each character in this humorous and interpretative world becomes a reflection of our society.\n\n\"Identity Potpourri\" by 2Fik is a mixture of different artworks from various series by the artist between 2006 and 2016. The exhibition will open at 6 PM on October 30 and be on display until November 8.

SUMMARY:Performance:Dave Alvin & Jimmie Dale Gilmore with The Guilty Ones
DESCRIPTION:When Grammy winner Dave Alvin and Grammy nominee Jimmie Dale Gilmore made the album Downey To Lubbock together in 2018\, they wrote the title track as a sort of mission statement. “I know someday this old highway’s gonna come to an end\,” Alvin sings near the song’s conclusion. Gilmore answers: “But I know when it does you’re going to be my friend.” Six years later\, they’re serving notice that the old highway hasn’t ended yet. “We’re still standing\, no matter what you might hear\,” they sing on “We’re Still Here\,” the final track to their new album Texicali. Due out Jun 21\, 2024 on Yep Roc Records\, Texicali continues to bridge the distance between the two troubadours’ respective home bases of California (Alvin) and Texas (Gilmore).\n\nThe album’s geographic theme reflects Alvin’s repeated journeys to record in Central Texas with Gilmore and the Austin-based backing band that has toured with the duo for the past few years. The 11 songs on Texicali also connect the duo’s shared fondness for a broad range of American music forms. On their own\, both have been prominent artists for decades. A philosophical songwriter with a captivating\, almost mystical voice\, Gilmore co-founded influential Lubbock group the Flatlanders in the early 1970s. Alvin first drew attention as a firebrand guitarist and budding young songwriter with Los Angeles roots-rockers the Blasters in the early 1980s.\n\nGilmore is primarily known for left-of-center country music\, while Alvin’s compass points largely toward old-school blues. But there’s a lot of ground to cover beyond those foundations\, and both artists also are well-known for transcending genre limitations. So it’s not surprising that they’ve spiked Texicali with cosmic folk narratives\, deep R&B grooves and even swinging reggae rhythms. \n\nhttps://www.jimmiedalegilmore.com/\nhttps://www.davealvin.net/

DESCRIPTION:What is Heartfulness Meditation?\n\nHeartfulness is about feeling. Our entire life is led by feelings and inspirations\, and that is the role of the heart.

The whole exercise of fine-tuning the heart with the mind is through meditation on the heart\, and that is why it is called Heartfulness Meditation.\n\nJoin us for a step-by-step guided relaxation and meditation at our next club meeting.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:2024 U-M Annual Data Science & AI Summit x ADSA Conference
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan Annual Data Science and AI Summit is the largest data science and AI event at U-M\, attracting attendees from more than 100 U-M departments and more than 80 industry\, government and community organizations annually.\n\nThis year\, MIDAS is hosting the Annual Summit in conjunction with the Academic Data Science Alliance Annual Conference. By partnering with the Academic Data Science Alliance (ADSA) this year\, we leverage the reach of this national organization for data science and AI institutes in academia\, expand the scope of our Summit\, and bring together data science and AI leadership\, researchers and educators from around the country. Thus\, this event offers a unique opportunity for local attendees to interact with hundreds of attendees from other universities\, hear talks from leading experts\, and participate in sessions on data science and AI research\, education and societal impact. \n\nOverview:\nThis year’s Annual Meeting theme is: Data Science and AI – Keeping Humans in the Loop\nData has become the essential building block for research and insight in nearly all fields. The next wave of emerging technologies\, including artificial intelligence (AI)\, is fueled by the unprecedented amount and variety of available data. Data and data-enabled technologies promise to reshape research and discovery\, as well as how we live and how society functions. ADSA’24\, hosted by the Michigan Institute for Data Science\, will draw our focus to humanity in data and AI – humans as data producers and data engineers\, humans as AI designers and developers\, humans represented in data\, and humans as data and AI users and as the beneficiaries or victims of data and AI. We will explore the central role of humans in the data and AI revolution: to maximize its benefits for research and innovation\; to ensure that the use of data and technologies and the insights they generate are aligned with our values and priorities\; and to ensure that the future workforce are prepared to continue discovery and innovation.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:WCEE Exhibition. Threads of Tradition: The Art of Ukrainian Vyshyvanka
DESCRIPTION:The act of embroidering and weaving designs onto cloth is deeply rooted in Ukrainian traditions.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Curator Q&A with Sophie Ong\, \"Ethiopia at the Crossroads\,\" Toledo Museum of Art (Rummage: Museums\, Exhibitions\, and Representation RIW)
DESCRIPTION:Rummage is a Rackham Interdisciplinary Workshop focused on the nexus of exhibition\, collection\, curation\, display\, and representation within museums and museum-adjacent spaces. The group’s name\, rummage\, evokes both a materiality and an intellectual practice characteristic of museum studies more broadly. On the one hand\, rummaging has a tactile quality. It gestures to the human role in how objects are placed and misplaced\, organized and disorganized\, thrown into juxtaposition\, and often randomly re-discovered anew by individuals negotiating various value systems associated with objects. It evokes an image of coming to objects of the past with new eyes and curiosity. On the other hand\, rummaging could also be used to describe an intellectual approach. In posing questions about the how and why certain narratives come to be exhibited and interpreted\, we root around historical understandings of heritage and the power dynamics that lead certain narratives to become dominant. This process is guided by curiosity\, a drive to understand\, and a skepticism of ordering systems.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Guardians: Spirits of Protection
DESCRIPTION:This fall\, the Residential College Art Gallery proudly presents Guardians: Spirits of Protection\, an exhibition of evocative figurative sculptures by renowned artist Ann Savageau. The exhibition will be on display from August 26 to November 2\, 2024.\n\nWe invite the university community and the general public to explore this moving collection that delves into themes of loss\, grief\, healing\, and protection. The seventeen life-size figures\, crafted from found objects and beach flotsam\, are a poignant response to the tragedies in Savageau’s life\, including the loss of her three children. Through this deeply personal and powerful work\, Savageau reimagines discarded materials as symbols of new life and resilience\, reflecting the healing power of art.\n\nAnn Savageau will be in residence in Ann Arbor and the Residential College from September 16-20 and October 20-25\, 2024. During her stay\, you are warmly invited to join us for a special artist reception on October 23\, from 4:30 to 6:00 pm in the Gallery. Prior to the reception\, there will be an artist's talk in the Keene Theater at 3:30 pm\, where Savageau will share insights into her creative process and the inspiration behind Guardians.\n\nAnn Savageau\, a former Studio Art instructor at the Residential College from 1978 to 2002\, is not only an artist but also an activist and educator. Her contributions to the Prison Creative Arts Project\, where she taught a weekly art workshop at Jackson Prison for four years\, showcase her commitment to using art as a tool for social change.\n\nDon't miss this opportunity to witness the transformative impact of Savageau's work and engage with her during her residency. We look forward to seeing you at the RC Art Gallery.\n\nImportant Dates:\n\nExhibition: August 26 – November 2\, 2024\nArtist's Talk: October 23\, 2024\, at 3:30 pm\, RC Keene Theater\nArtist Reception: October 23\, 2024\, from 4:30 – 6:00 pm\, RC Art Gallery

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mrs. Dalloway and WWI: Home Front and War Front
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit explores the characters of Mrs. Dalloway through the lens of WWI and its aftershocks. It looks at those who fought in the trenches and those who watched from afar.\n\n[The exhibit includes references to suicide and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder\, which might be distressing for some visitors. Viewer discretion is advised.]\n\nWhile all of the action in Virginia Woolf’s modernist masterpiece takes place on a single day\, as preparations are made for Clarissa Dalloway’s evening party\, Woolf’s stream of consciousness writing takes us in the characters’ minds all the way from English drawing rooms to colonial India to the trenches of World War I.\n\nCheck today's Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours: https://myumi.ch/PkQ2x

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Steve Glazer Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Steve Glazer earned his BFA in art with a concentration in ceramics from Eastern Michigan University\, a master’s degree in art from Central Michigan University\, and MFA in fine arts and ceramics from Indiana State University. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Susan Moran Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Susan Moran’s work is inspired by the natural world and our place in it.  She collects and arranges images\, builds and subtracts\, and uses processes that suit the concepts and gives the pieces a reason for existing as textiles.  Simultaneously she strives to make the medium  influence the  outcome in such a way that cloth and image meld together. Moran uses  silkscreen\, shibori\, and stitching to embed images from her daily walks into the fabric. it's important that the work builds slowly\, involving meditative processes that connect her to the cloth and the source of the design.\n\nGallery hours:  Monday-Friday\, 9 am to 5pm or by appointment serrag@med.umich.edu

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

SUMMARY:Presentation:In-Hand Object Localization with Proprioception and Tactile Feedback
DESCRIPTION:Chair: Nima Fazeli\n\nNote: Halloween costumes for audience members allowed (if not encouraged!)\n\nAbstract:\nSafe operation in unstructured environments\, like homes or offices\, is imperative for robust robotic systems. At the core of unstructured environments is uncertainty. Failing to consider uncertainty can lead to downstream task failures with costly and even dangerous consequences.\n\nThere are many types of uncertainty that need to be considered for real-world systems in unstructured environments. In this dissertation\, I focus on uncertainty of in-hand object pose for objects grasped by a robotic system. If not addressed\, this type of uncertainty can lead to potential failures including grasp instability and unexpected or unreliable contacts made with the environment (including other robots\, objects\, or humans). These types of failures significantly impact task performance for applications including robotic tool use\, assembly\, object hand-over\, and human-robot interaction.\n\nThis dissertation makes several contributions to in-hand object pose estimation using proprioceptive and tactile feedback. Firstly\, I provide a proprioceptive method to estimate contact locations and in-hand object poses simultaneously in a bimanual system from single contact-rich interactions. Then\, I build upon this approach to connect several sequential actions in order to more precisely estimate in-hand object poses. Next\, I incorporate robot proprioception uncertainty with this proprioceptive in-hand object pose estimation framework to adapt to real-world challenges with configuration-dependent robot proprioception uncertainty. Finally\, I introduce the GelSlim 4.0 sensor\, a powerful visuotactile sensor that enables key tactile sensing capabilities like depth estimation and shear field estimation. With accessibility as an explicit design goal\, this sensor is accompanied by open-source manufacturing documentation that we user-tested with 17 novice users. In summary\, this dissertation contributes algorithms and hardware for robotic manipulation that leverage proprioceptive and tactile feedback to address uncertainty in in-hand object poses.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Kelly Church & Cherish Parrish: In Our Words\, An Intergenerational Dialogue
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: September 13 – December 7\, 2024Opening Reception: September 19\, 2024\n\nKelly Church &amp\; Cherish Parrish: In Our Words\, An Intergenerational Dialogue is a major exhibition that centers the subjectivities of two contemporary Indigenous artists whose practices have sustained and bolstered the relevance of the age-old Anishinaabe practice of black ash basket-making in the 21st century. 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.

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

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Demographic Preferences and Income Segregation
DESCRIPTION:We investigate whether demographic preferences explain income segregation in shared spaces. To distinguish preferences over demographic composition from preferences over other venue characteristics\, we study venue choices within business chains. We find two notable regularities: racial homophily does not vary by income\, and preferences for high-income co-patrons are similar across racial groups. These demographic preferences are economically large\, explain much of the cross-group variation in exposure to high-income co-patrons\, and correlate with movers’ neighborhood choices.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:ECE Distinguished Seminar Series - Self-Powered Connected Sensor Systems for Health and Environment
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nSelf-powered wearable sensor systems can not only increase adoption and compliance but also enable long-term and continuous monitoring of key health and environmental parameters. To achieve this\, wearable devices must integrate a multimodal array of sensors that enable non-invasive\, continuous\, real-time monitoring\, have a long operational lifetime to gather meaningful long-term data\, and remain comfortable and flexible to ensure user adoption. The National Science Foundation-funded Center for Advanced Self-Powered Systems of Integrated Sensors and Technologies (ASSIST) is developing precisely such devices\, capable of continuous monitoring of personal environments and health. These capabilities are made possible by breakthroughs in power management\, low-power electronics\, and innovative health and environmental sensors\, all seamlessly integrated into wearable\, comfortable form factors. In this talk\, I will specifically focus on how advances in energy harvesting and sensor systems are making continuous monitoring a reality. Innovations in thermoelectric and piezoelectric harvesters\, catalyzed by optimized system design and flexible materials\, have enabled long-term operation of sensors for vigilant monitoring. Sensor advances in electronic-nose\, optical imaging and human health are providing a complete multi-modal picture into human health and its relationship environment. I will also present the applications that these sensor systems are enabling such as long-term sensing and effective management of chronic conditions\, sensing of personal exposure to air pollutants and toxins and longitudinal studies that provide new insight into correlation of various health and environmental parameters. I will also provide examples of translation of sensor systems and innovative education of the engineering pipeline enabled by the ecosystem associated with an NSF engineering research center.\n\nBio\n\nVeena Misra is the Department Head of Electrical and Computer Engineering and the M.C.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:IOE 899: Interpreting Black-Box Supervised Learning Models Via Accumulated Local Effects
DESCRIPTION:About the speaker: Dan Apley is a Professor of Industrial Engineering &amp\; Management Sciences at\nNorthwestern University. His research and teaching interests are at the interface of engineering\nmodeling\, statistical analysis\, and predictive analytics\, with particular emphasis on improving\noperations of complex manufacturing and other enterprise systems. He received the NSF\nCAREER award\, the IIE Transactions Best Paper Award\, the Technometrics Wilcoxon Prize\,\nand the Journal of Quality Technology Lloyd S. Nelson award. He has served as Editor-in-Chief\nof Technometrics and of the Journal of Quality Technology. He is a Fellow of the American\nStatistical Association and served as Chair of the Quality\, Statistics &amp\; Reliability Section of\nINFORMS and Director of the Manufacturing and Design Engineering Program at Northwestern.\n\n\nAbstract: For many supervised learning applications\, understanding and visualizing the effects\nof the predictor variables on the predicted response is of paramount importance. A shortcoming\nof black-box supervised learning models (e.g.\, complex trees\, neural networks\, boosted trees\,\nrandom forests\, nearest neighbors\, local kernel-weighted methods\, support vector regression\,\netc.) in this regard is their lack of interpretability or transparency. Partial dependence (PD) plots\,\nwhich are the most popular general approach for visualizing the effects of the predictors with\nblack box supervised learning models\, can produce erroneous results if the predictors are\nstrongly correlated\, because they require extrapolation of the response at predictor values that are\nfar outside the multivariate envelope of the training data. Functional ANOVA for correlated\ninputs can avoid this extrapolation but involves prohibitive computational expense and\nsubjective choice of additive surrogate model to fit to the supervised learning model. We present\na new visualization approach that we term accumulated local effects (ALE) plots\, which have a\nnumber of advantages over existing methods. First\, ALE plots do not require unreliable\nextrapolation with correlated predictors. Second\, they are orders of magnitude less\ncomputationally expensive than PD plots\, and many orders of magnitude less expensive than\nfunctional ANOVA. Third\, they yield convenient variable importance/sensitivity measures that\npossess a number of desirable properties for quantifying the impact of each predictor.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Biomedical Engineering Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nMotion in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans causes image corruption and remains a barrier to clinical imaging. We propose Beat Pilot Tone (BPT)\, a simple serendipitous system exploitation that turns any MRI receiver chain into a radio frequency (RF) motion sensing system that can operate at arbitrary frequencies (up to several GHz). Our contact-free system can be implemented on any MRI scanner regardless of field strength. Through electromagnetic field simulations and experiments\, we explain BPT’s novel mechanism: two or more transmitted RF tones form motion-modulated standing wave patterns that are sensed by the same receiver coil arrays used for MR imaging. These waves are incidentally mixed by intermodulation and digitized simultaneously to the MRI data. BPT achieves an order of magnitude greater sensitivity to motion than other methods in detecting and separating common motion types (respiratory\, bulk\, cardiac\, and head motion) in volunteers. Moreover\, BPT offers tunable sensitivity to motion based on the transmit frequencies\; at microwave frequencies\, BPT can detect millimeter-scale vibrations (ballistocardiograms). With multiple antennas and frequency-multiplexing\, BPT can operate as a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system. BPT significantly expands the capability of any MRI system\, paving the way toward multi-modality\, motion-robust\, and simultaneous RF and MR imaging.\n\nBio:\nMichael (Miki) Lustig is a Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences at UC Berkeley.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Department of Astronomy 2024-2025 Colloquium Series Presents:
DESCRIPTION:Doyee’s Title: Analysis of Quasar Outflows Found in Ultraviolet Spectra \n\nQuasars can affect their surrounding environment through a process known as active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback\, through which the quasar can curtail the formation of stars\, regulate the evolution of its host galaxy\, and affect its surrounding environment in other ways. One possible mechanism for this process is a quasar’s outflow\, which can be observed as blueshifted absorption troughs in the quasar’s spectrum. With enough kinetic power\, an outflow can contribute to AGN feedback\, regulating star formation and host galaxy evolution. Analyzing the troughs of outflows found in ultraviolet spectra of quasars\, observed both from the ground and in space\, can reveal their physical characteristics\, as well as their potential ability to contribute to feedback effects.\n\nDavid’s Title: Exploring Ultra-Compact X-Ray Binaries with Reflection Modeling\n\nLow mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) are X-ray sources which contain a compact object such as a black hole (BH) or neutron star (NS) accreting material from a stellar companion. A subclass of LMXB called ultra compact X-ray binaries (UCXBs) contain a degenerate stellar companion such as a white dwarf (WD)\, resulting in a much shorter orbital period. We study one UCXB candidate and one verified UCXB using a process called reflection modeling\, wherein the X-ray spectrum is modeled with components representing both direct emission and emission that is reprocessed by the accretion disk. This process can allow us to better understand the geometry and behavior of accreting systems\, with UCXBs probing high energy accretion on some of the smallest size scales.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar Series - Monkeys in Extremis: Building Multi-Omics Models for Characterizing Adaptations to Environmental Stress in Wild Primates
DESCRIPTION:This event is part of our ongoing Thursday Seminar Series.\n\nAbout this seminar: Anthropogenic climate change is rapidly altering local ecologies... how vulnerable or robust are primates\, including humans\, to environmental variation\, and what can this tell us about developmental impacts on lifetime health? Prof. Schmitt uses behavioral ecology\, morphometric\, and multiple -omics methods to study mechanistic and adaptive aspects of these questions in two non-human primate models: savanna monkeys (Chlorocebus spp.)\, and woolly monkeys (Lagothrix spp.). His work with Chlorocebus demonstrates that there are both heritable and epigenetic components to developmental patterns that help us to better understand the interplay between extremes in resource quality and energetics\, life history\, and metabolic disease. His developing work on Lagothrix expands the use of portable genomics technologies to delve into how diet\, sociality\, and genetic variation interact to enable the energetics of high-elevation living while also potentially constraining climatic adaptability.

DESCRIPTION:Long story short: our goal is to describe tail decay and moderate deviation estimates for the distribution of the height function of the stochastic six-vertex model\, with narrow wedge initial condition.\n\nNow the long version. This whole tale of the tail started in Ann Arbor\, many many years ago. Explaining the embarrassment of our failure to find such estimates for so many years is the main reason for our talk. As we had to learn for our task\, such tail estimates are intimately connected with conditional thinning ensembles from random matrix theory\, and nonlocal versions of the so-called Painlevé equations. The unraveling of such connections was a parallel task that we had to overcome\, together with many other colleagues\, and led to interesting phenomena that we hadn't anticipated with our original question. During our talk\, we plan to go through such developments as well.\n\nThe talk is mostly based on joint works with Promit Ghosal (University of Chicago)\, but partially also in works in preparation with Tom Claeys (UC Louvain)\, Leslie Molag (Universidad Carlos III) and Lun Zhang (Fudan University).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Penny Stamps Speaker Series - Emil Ferris
DESCRIPTION:Emil Ferris\, acclaimed for her graphic novel My Favorite Thing Is Monsters\, blends visual art with storytelling to create impactful works. Overcoming the West Nile Virus\, which left her partially paralyzed\, Ferris demonstrates remarkable resilience and dedication in her intricate cross-hatching and emotionally charged illustrations.\nMy Favorite Thing Is Monsters intertwines a coming-of-age story with a murder mystery and a historical reflection on the Holocaust. Through young Karen Reyes\, Ferris delves into themes of identity\, fear\, and the complexities of humanity. Her art\, inspired by horror magazines and pulp fiction\, juxtaposes the grotesque and the beautiful\, fostering empathy and understanding.\n\nFerris challenges the boundaries of graphic literature\, using the medium to address complex social issues and personal histories. Her work confronts internal and external monsters\, revealing profound truths about the human experience. By pushing the limits of graphic novels\, Ferris elevates the form to explore deeper narratives and emotional landscapes\, inviting readers into a world where art and story are inseparable.\n\nFerris's contributions extend beyond her graphic novels. In April 2022\, Ferris was reported among the more than three dozen comics creators who contributed to Operation USA's benefit anthology book\, Comics for Ukraine: Sunflower Seeds\, a project spearheaded by editor Scott Dunbier\, whose profits would be donated to relief efforts for Ukrainian refugees resulting from the February 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.\n\nMy Favorite Thing is Monsters has been translated into French\, Italian\, Portuguese\, Spanish\, German\, and Korean. It has been honored with numerous awards\, among them: The Lambda Literary Award\, multiple Eisners\, the Ignatz\, and the Fauve d’or at the Angouleme Festival\, France.\n\nFerris has exhibited her art extensively in the US and Europe\, and prior to the pandemic she was honored to teach classes at the Louvre.\n\nPresented in partnership with the U-M Library\, Vault of Midnight\, 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.

SUMMARY:Performance:Anna Tivel
DESCRIPTION:\"Anna Tivel\, we will never cease to tell you\, is one of the finest songwriters of her generation.\" –Americana UK\n\nLiving Thing\, the newest full-length album from Oregon-based songwriter Anna Tivel\, is an arcing dive into the existential. Written through the tumultuous eyes of 2020 and recorded in Eau Claire\, WI in profound collaboration with long-time friend and producer Shane Leonard\, these are songs of struggle and aliveness expressed with great joy. \n\n“I wrote feverishly in the strange chaos of that year\, suddenly out of work and attempting to understand the shifting human fabric\, the depth of desperation\, and the overwhelming tenacity of spirit. The resulting songs felt rhythmic and vital\, with more melody and soaring chorus than I’ve explored in the past. There was no way and no means to gather a full band\, and I brought the songs to Shane’s doorstep knowing and fully trusting the skill and exuberance of his creative imagination. Shane stripped everything down to the studs and we rebuilt it together\, just the two of us for a month in his garage studio\, Shane dreaming up each sonic layer while I chased the lyrics to one last double chorus.”

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Guardians: Spirits of Protection
DESCRIPTION:This fall\, the Residential College Art Gallery proudly presents Guardians: Spirits of Protection\, an exhibition of evocative figurative sculptures by renowned artist Ann Savageau. The exhibition will be on display from August 26 to November 2\, 2024.\n\nWe invite the university community and the general public to explore this moving collection that delves into themes of loss\, grief\, healing\, and protection. The seventeen life-size figures\, crafted from found objects and beach flotsam\, are a poignant response to the tragedies in Savageau’s life\, including the loss of her three children. Through this deeply personal and powerful work\, Savageau reimagines discarded materials as symbols of new life and resilience\, reflecting the healing power of art.\n\nAnn Savageau will be in residence in Ann Arbor and the Residential College from September 16-20 and October 20-25\, 2024. During her stay\, you are warmly invited to join us for a special artist reception on October 23\, from 4:30 to 6:00 pm in the Gallery. Prior to the reception\, there will be an artist's talk in the Keene Theater at 3:30 pm\, where Savageau will share insights into her creative process and the inspiration behind Guardians.\n\nAnn Savageau\, a former Studio Art instructor at the Residential College from 1978 to 2002\, is not only an artist but also an activist and educator. Her contributions to the Prison Creative Arts Project\, where she taught a weekly art workshop at Jackson Prison for four years\, showcase her commitment to using art as a tool for social change.\n\nDon't miss this opportunity to witness the transformative impact of Savageau's work and engage with her during her residency. We look forward to seeing you at the RC Art Gallery.\n\nImportant Dates:\n\nExhibition: August 26 – November 2\, 2024\nArtist's Talk: October 23\, 2024\, at 3:30 pm\, RC Keene Theater\nArtist Reception: October 23\, 2024\, from 4:30 – 6:00 pm\, RC Art Gallery

DESCRIPTION:This exhibit explores the characters of Mrs. Dalloway through the lens of WWI and its aftershocks. It looks at those who fought in the trenches and those who watched from afar.\n\n[The exhibit includes references to suicide and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder\, which might be distressing for some visitors. Viewer discretion is advised.]\n\nWhile all of the action in Virginia Woolf’s modernist masterpiece takes place on a single day\, as preparations are made for Clarissa Dalloway’s evening party\, Woolf’s stream of consciousness writing takes us in the characters’ minds all the way from English drawing rooms to colonial India to the trenches of World War I.\n\nCheck today's Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours: https://myumi.ch/PkQ2x

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Steve Glazer Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Steve Glazer earned his BFA in art with a concentration in ceramics from Eastern Michigan University\, a master’s degree in art from Central Michigan University\, and MFA in fine arts and ceramics from Indiana State University. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Susan Moran Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Susan Moran’s work is inspired by the natural world and our place in it.  She collects and arranges images\, builds and subtracts\, and uses processes that suit the concepts and gives the pieces a reason for existing as textiles.  Simultaneously she strives to make the medium  influence the  outcome in such a way that cloth and image meld together. Moran uses  silkscreen\, shibori\, and stitching to embed images from her daily walks into the fabric. it's important that the work builds slowly\, involving meditative processes that connect her to the cloth and the source of the design.\n\nGallery hours:  Monday-Friday\, 9 am to 5pm or by appointment serrag@med.umich.edu

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Welcome. Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. 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. Gather to feel full\, to be moved and inspired by all the possible imaginations of what is yet to come.\n \nCurated by Félix Zamora Gómez Irving Stenn\, Jr. Fellow in Public Humanities & Museum Pedagogy\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Seminar Series: David Hogg\, Professor of Physics and Data Science\, Center for Cosmology and Particle Physics\, Department of Physics\, New York University
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Machine learning (ML) methods are having a huge impact across all of the sciences. However\, ML has a strong ontology - in which only the data exist - and a strong epistemology - in which a model is considered good if it performs well on held-out training data. These philosophies are in strong conflict with both standard practices and key philosophies in the natural sciences. I identify some locations for ML in the natural sciences at which the ontology and epistemology are valuable. I also show that there are contexts in which the introduction of ML introduces strong\, unwanted statistical biases. My partial answers I provide (to the question in my title) come from the particular perspective of physics.\n\nWork in collaboration with Soledad Villar at JHU.\n\nhttps://cosmo.nyu.edu/hogg/

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

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 &amp\; Architecture Building\, further developing students' experience planning extracurricular exhibitions by showing in the Stamps Gallery\, and taking a new approach to creating/curating artwork.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Kelly Church & Cherish Parrish: In Our Words\, An Intergenerational Dialogue
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: September 13 – December 7\, 2024Opening Reception: September 19\, 2024\n\nKelly Church &amp\; Cherish Parrish: In Our Words\, An Intergenerational Dialogue is a major exhibition that centers the subjectivities of two contemporary Indigenous artists whose practices have sustained and bolstered the relevance of the age-old Anishinaabe practice of black ash basket-making in the 21st century. 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.

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

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Flash Talk | One Thread at a Time: Egyptian Weaving Communities in the Third Intermediate Period
DESCRIPTION:Linen textiles were deeply intertwined with pharaonic Egyptian culture throughout its 3\,000-year history. The importance of this fabric can be seen in the surviving material culture of this ancient civilization\, such as the representations of figures wearing bright white linen garments in tomb paintings and intricately wrapped and carefully shrouded mummified bodies. However\, unraveling the lives of the people involved in the production of these textiles is quite challenging\, as these individuals are relatively invisible in the historical and archaeological record. One way to approach this problem is to examine the textiles they created with their own hands. Each thread that was spun and woven was created by communities of practice\, which—through a process of situated learning—developed a shared repertoire of techniques\, skills\, and preferences. When we look at a handmade textile\, whether ancient or modern\, we are seeing the results of the countless choices made in each stage of its production. \n\nIn this Flash Talk\, Heidi Hilliker (PhD candidate in Egyptology) investigates a collection of mortuary textiles from Theban tombs of 21st and 22nd Dynasty Egypt\, evaluating local similarities and differences in textile production. The textiles in question\, which come from tombs at Deir el-Bahari and Bab el-Gasus\, display striped patterns in undyed\, blue\, and red thread along the selvage (the vertical edge of the cloth formed during the weaving process). While these patterns undoubtedly served a decorative purpose\, this talk argues that they also conveyed information about the makers themselves. A communities-of-practice approach suggests that these striped markings encapsulate the traditions learned within a network of weavers and may even represent intentional forms of maker’s marks used by workshops\, groups\, or individual weavers.\n\nKelsey Museum Flash Talks are 15-minute Zoom lectures by Kelsey curators\, staff members\, researchers\, graduate students\, and guests talking about their recent research or current projects. Each presentation is followed by 15 minutes of Q&A. Flash Talks are free and open to all visitors. \n\nTo register for this Flash Talk\, fill out the form at https://forms.gle/DnkDqjvRbjiLbnsi9. Zoom log-in information will be provided upon registration. Please sign up by 9:30 AM the day of the event to ensure you receive a confirmation email containing the access code.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:FSML Lecture Series: Discovery of cellular reprogramming methodology through single-cell foundation models
DESCRIPTION:Venue: 2052 Walter E. Lay Auto Lab and\n\nZoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/97823527756?pwd=H01BbvtuG5q02Wzb8LJvhUnvijlAIe.1\n\nAbstract: Cell reprogramming\, the transformation of a cell from one cell type to another through the introduction of exogenous transcription factors (TFs)\, is a rapidly developing research area that could lead to groundbreaking therapeutic technologies in areas such as tissue regeneration\, disease modeling\, and personalized medicine. However\, there still exist many challenges obstructing its practical viability. Discovering which TFs induce reprogramming requires a combinatorial search\, and testing a single\ncandidate set of TFs experimentally can cost tens of thousands of dollars and take multiple months. Moreover\, even when an effective set of TFs is known\, cell conversion efficiency lies only around 5%.\n\nFaced with these challenges\, researchers have developed computational surrogate models to rapidly explore the TF search space at a fraction of the cost of wet lab experimentation. Unfortunately\, these models have seen limited success in practice due to the difficulty of capturing the complex gene-gene\ninteractions within the cell\, most of which are still not well-understood. With the recent high-profile rise of transformer-based foundation models for natural language\, researchers are now turning to the transformer to push past current performance limitations in a wide range of digital biology tasks\, including cell reprogramming. Of particular interest in these models is the attention mechanism\, which is potentially well-suited for capturing long-range gene-gene interactions at a higher fidelity than previously possible. In this talk\, I will describe how the transformer architecture has been adapted for cellular biology and analyze the utility of one such model\, Geneformer\, in identifying TFs for cell reprogramming. Specifically\, I will present the results of an in silico perturbation experiment for reprogramming fibroblast cells to hematopoietic stem cells and compare the outcomes to experimental results found in the literature. I will conclude the talk with a discussion of the drawbacks and limitations of the Geneformer model and provide an assessment of what will be needed in the future for digital biology to fully reap the benefits of large-scale foundation models.\n\nBio:\nNick Galioto is a second-year postdoctoral research fellow in the Department of Computational Medicine and Bioinformatics at the University of Michigan (UM). He received his PhD at UM in aerospace engineering in 2023 under the advising of Alex Gorodetsky and remained in the lab for an additional year as a postdoc. In the Gorodetsky lab\, Nick researched how to use stochastic models of dynamical systems to improve system identification. Now\, Nick works in the Rajapakse lab researching how to create data-driven models of the dynamics of cell reprogramming.
