Beyond the Headlines: Morocco 8 Years after the February 20th Movement DESCRIPTION:Eight years have passed since Morocco’s iteration of the “Arab Spring” with the February 20th Movement. Since then\, Moroccans have continued expressing dissent in varying forms\, while the state has responded with varying forms of oppression. Despite promises for reforms and grandiose development projects\, socioeconomic indicators remain grim\, contributing to an ongoing emigration of the country’s skilled and educated population. This talk will examine recent political\, economic\, and social developments in Morocco to better understand where the country stands today and to consider what possibilities for the future may hold. \n\nSamia Errazzouki is currently pursuing a Ph.D. in history at the University of California\, Davis. She is a former Morocco-based journalist\, where she reported for the Associated Press and\, later\, Reuters. While in Morocco\, Samia also worked as a research associate with the University of Cambridge\, researching the media landscape in the country. Samia is a co-editor with Jadaliyya and a co-founder of their Maghreb Page. Her past publications have appeared in the Journal of North African Studies\, the Washington Post\, the Middle East Institute\, and the Guardian\, among others. \n\n---\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

Organizers hope to reschedule in the fall. \n\nMales in many species must convince females to mate by producing elaborate courtship displays tuned to female preferences\, like the song of a cricket or the train of a peacock. But courtship in many species is more like a negotiation than an advertisement\, thus in addition to elaborate signals\, success in courtship may require tactical skills. These skills may include the ability to choose a flattering display site\, respond appropriately to female courtship signals\, and adjust display investment in response to the marketplace of other males and females. My lab has been investigating courtship negotiations in greater sage-grouse\, which mate in an open marketplace of competing males and choosing females (the lek). I will discuss experiments using robotic females to investigate courtship interactions between the sexes. I will also discuss ongoing research investigating how off-lek foraging behaviors affect on-lek displays\, and how this basic science has informed my lab's research into human impacts on lekking activities.

This symposium engages widely shared anxieties and aspirations regarding the role of the humanities in the midst of crisis. The challenge of integrating climate change and environmental justice into teaching is only partly a matter of disciplinary expertise. Georgetown University climate historian Dagomar Degroot will discuss his successes and failures in teaching about climate change. The symposium concludes by grappling with dystopian visions in order to ask how humans live with climate change and how critical pedagogies can avoid exacerbating a “climate of despair.” \n\nModerated by Perrin Selcer (University of Michigan)\, facilitated by Anne Berg (University of Michigan).\n\nDagomar Degroot is an assistant professor of environmental history at Georgetown University. His recent work focuses on the resilience of different societies to pre-industrial climate change\; the history of animal cultures in the Arctic\, and the social impacts\, on Earth\, of environmental changes in outer space. His first book\, The Frigid Golden Age: Climate Change\, the Little Ice Age\, and the Dutch Republic\, 1560-1720\, was recently published by Cambridge University Press. His second book\, Civilization and the Cosmos: An Environmental History of Humanity's Place in the Solar System\, is under contract with Harvard University Press and Penguin Random House. He is the co-founder of the Climate History Network\, an organization of more than 200 climate scholars\, and the founder of HistoricalClimatology.com\, a website that receives roughly 500\,000 hits per year.\n\nThis event is part of the Friday Series of the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg. Presented with support from Environmental History Interest Group\; Institute for the Humanities\; Program in the Environment\; and Science\, Technology\, and Society.

AIs are intended to guide the efforts by therapists\, teachers\, and other clinical and/or academic staff to provide individualized intervention to individuals in practice. A Just-in-time Adaptive Intervention (JITAI) is a special form of an adaptive intervention that often capitalizes on advances in wireless and mobile devices to address the rapidly changing needs of individuals. In recent years there has been increased interest in developing empirically-informed AIs and JITAIs to address a wide range of behavioral health issues\, including depression\, anxiety\, alcohol use\, substance use and sedentary lifestyles. These intervention approaches play an important role in various domains of psychology\, including clinical\, educational\, organizational and health psychology. The goal of this talk is to provide an introduction to AIs and JITAIs\, and discuss novel experimental approaches for optimizing these interventions.

Alluding to feelings of pain\, otherness\, power and triumph\, \"she was here\, once\" features work that illustrates a moment of remembrance and reflection on the women who have roamed these spaces before us.\n\nIn summer 2018\, artist Nastassja Swift organized a collaborative workshop and public performance in her home city of Richmond\, Virginia. Using a range of choreographed movement\, sound\, and solidarity\, eight Black women and girls\, wearing large needle felted wool masks\, traced the ancestral footprints of the arrival of the Black body in Richmond. The 3.5 mile walk began in Shockoe Bottom (the site of the importation of slaves into Richmond\, and one of the largest sources of slave trade in America) and concluded in the Jackson Ward neighborhood (one of the largest Black communities in Richmond).\n\nThe multi-layered piece has produced a short film\, mini documentary\, photography\, and performance masks\, on display in her solo exhibition\, \"she was here\, once\" in Lane Hall.\n\nLane Hall Gallery is open to the public weekdays from 8am - 4pm.

In the process\, it will extract Auerbach out of the critical impasse into which he has been wedged between a mandarin Eurocentric and a pre-post colonial exilic consciousness. The theo-philosophical conversations in which he was engaged in his early work had a robust afterlife in the magisterial Mimesis (1946)\, and help explain the huge popularity of that book when it was translated into English in 1953. \n\nJane O.

Mineral physics experiments and simulations seek to reverse-engineer the recipes that generate the features we detect in the deep Earth today. Because Earth and other planets are almost entirely composed of materials at high pressures and temperatures\, the key to translating geophysical observations to structure and composition is the dependence of mineral stability and physical properties such as density\, elasticity\, and transport properties on composition and thermodynamic conditions. I will discuss recent observations of chemical reactions and properties of minerals relevant to Earth’s mantle\, and implications of these experiments for the compositions of layers and regions in the deep Earth.

We hope to see you at our next event!\n\nIn a longer project called The Postcolonial Commons\, I am interested in the emergence of fluid political subjectivities around questions of defending existing commons\, and creating new ones\, in two regions of India: of small-scale fishers in coastal Kerala\, and small farmers in the Garhwal region of present-day Uttarakhand state. I am in conversation with strands of contemporary political theory (represented\, among others\, by Hardt and Negri\, Federici\, de Angelis\, Zizek\, and Bauwens) that posit a future organised around ‘the commons’. However\, while these writings are futuristic\, I suggest that they have an underpinning narrative of the transition from the ‘pre-capitalist commons’ to the ‘commons unmade through capitalism’\, which has implications for the political imaginaries outlined in their works. I challenge their orthodox account of this transition with drawing on writings on ‘postcolonial capitalism’\, including my own recent work.\n\nFor this seminar\, I offer two sections of the ‘historical’ part of the larger project: a discussion of the historiographical challenges in reconstructing ‘the pre-capitalist commons’ and the transitions it undergoes ‘under capitalism’ in relation to Kerala fisheries and Garhwali forests\, and the limits of the ‘commodity frontiers’ approach to narrate this process. Among other things\, the very nature of ‘rule’\, and the problems of establishing it in these ‘unruly’ spaces\, has a bearing on the sources – rather\, the lack thereof – on which an account of such a process can be reconstituted. Accounts are few\, and the reliability of some sources is uncertain\, for much of the period of early colonial conquest. And what accounts there are do not point to the transformation of fish or forest into ‘commodities’ until relatively recently. Nor are capitalist production relations visible in any meaningful sense. The conditions for fish and forests becoming ‘commodities’\, and for the emergence of capitalism in these sectors\, come from a number of scientific\, technological and other governmental innovations under late-colonial and early-postcolonial developmentalism. I conclude by identifying the implications of my account for radical political theory of the commons. \n\nSubir Sinha studied History at the University of Delhi (BA) and Political Science at Northwestern University (MS\, PhD)\, and has taught at Northwestern University and the University of Vermont.

Multi-physics\, multi-scale feedback gets the most attention in efforts like CASL\, MOOSE and NEAMS\, with a focus on increasing the fidelity of those simulations to reduce approximations of well- understood fundamental physical phenomena on relatively simple geometric domains. My work explores alternative axes: in one case the geometry itself introduces the complexity\; in the other\, poorly defined interactions among facilities may lead to complex emergent behavior. \n\nWith CAD-based Monte Carlo radiation transport at its core\, the Svalinn software suite supports workflows that couple the neutronics results in these complex geometries to other analyses including deterministic transport\, neutron activation\, heat transfer\, and mechanical analyses. These tools are being used for support of licensing at ITER\, designing radiation protection for astronaut travel to Mars\, and experiment design at ATR. \n\nCyclus uses agent-based modeling to track the flow of material among nuclear energy facilities with a specific goal of facilitating the introduction of new facility models\, either to improve the physics model\, add nuance to the way the facility interacts with others\, or both. This open source platform enables innovation while ensuring nuclear engineering material compatibility as new facilities are introduced and improved. Recent work has used Cyclus at large scale to study optimization of fuel cycles and hedging scenarios under disruption.\n\nBio: Paul Wilson is the Grainger Professor of Nuclear Engineering in the University of Wisconsin-Madison‘s Department of Engineering Physics\, and Chair of the Energy Analysis and Policy Program. His research interests focus on developing improved tools for computational modeling of complex nuclear energy systems\, with applications in radiation shielding\, nuclear waste management\, nuclear non-proliferation and energy policy. His Computational Nuclear Engineering Research Group (CNERG) develops and provides software for the analysis of complex nuclear energy systems. Paul joined the University of Wisconsin-Madison as an assistant professor in August 2001 as part of the Energy Systems and Policy Hiring Initiative. Paul received a B.A.Sc.

She is passionate about painting plein air (outdoors) whenever possible\, as she feels the direct observation from life is the best teacher to truly see the subtleties of light and color in nature. Working on sanded paper\, her process begins with a pastel and alcohol/mineral spirits under-painting wash to establish value and color. Soft pastel is applied in layers\, often in contrasting color and temperatures for vibrancy. Over her 35-year career in painting\, Will has won numerous national awards. She also operates a custom framing business from her home/studio in Washington Township and teaches occasional workshops.

As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts\, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects\; bilingualism in Egypt\; books read by the Egyptian monks\; and the works of Shenoute the Great\, the most important author of Coptic literature.\n\nThis exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities.

In the early 1970s\, that question was hotly debated as artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. Many of those debates centered on bringing to light the roles that gender and race played in how “great modern art” was defined and assessed\, and on employing art to advance civil rights. Within this discourse\, abstraction had an especially fraught role. To many\, the decision by women artists and artists of color to make abstract art seemed to represent a retreat from politics and protest: an abnegation of a commitment to civil rights and feminism. \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" presents large-scale work by four leading American artists—Helen Frankenthaler\, Sam Gilliam\, Al Loving\, and Louise Nevelson—who chose abstraction as a means of expression within the intense political climate of the early 1970s.\n\nLead support for \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L.

An ideal garden should be well-tended and have some symmetry. So too the instrumental music of the period\, which was allowed to branch from its roots\, and blossom\, whilst keeping safely within prescribed boundaries. In the garden and the fantasia\, pattern and tonality served as “safe zones” from which to observe the wonders of nature and the imagination.\n\nThe viol quartet PARTHENIA brings early music into the present with its repertoire that animates ancient and fresh-commissioned contemporary works with a ravishing sound and a remarkable sense of ensemble. These “local early-music stars\,” hailed by The New Yorker and music critics throughout the world\, are “one of the brightest lights in New York’s early-music scene.” Parthenia is presented in concerts across America\, and produces its own series in New York City\, collaborating regularly with the world’s foremost early music specialists.\n\nThe quartet has been featured in prestigious festivals and series as wide- ranging as Music Before 1800\, the Harriman-Jewell Series\, Maverick Concerts\, the Regensburg Tage Alter Musik\, the Shalin Lui Performing Arts Center\, the Pierpont Morgan Library\, the Metropolitan Museum of Art\, the Yale Center for British Art\, Columbia University’s Miller Theatre\, and the Cathedral of St. John the Divine.

For the first time\, The Mighty and the Mythic brings together three key projects — CareForce (2012– ongoing)\, Bibliobandido (2010–ongoing)\, and MIRROR | MASK (2017–ongoing) — that highlight her deep and meaningful collaborations with low-wage immigrants\, caregivers\, and youth. Jahn describes her use of play and humor as essential tools that enable her and her collaborators to portray their lives with dignity\, critique power\, and build momentum within their community. Jahn’s practice is deeply informed by her own experiences growing up as a second-generation immigrant of Chinese and Ecuadorian heritage. For Jahn home was not a fixed place but an adaptation itself. Her varied vocational past as a schoolteacher\, caretaker\, woodshop cleaner-upper\, lumber hauler\, community organizer\, and now university professor and mother informs the urgency in her work to find common ground between (her-)self and (an-)other\, through the concepts of care and empathy. Each of the works in this exhibition highlights her deep engagement with the stories of everyday people\, mundane routines\, and a desire to build an inclusive society. Marisa Morán Jahn: the Mighty and the Mythic celebrates and acknowledges the daily struggles and minor victories of the 99 percent that make up the spirit of our society in the twenty-first century.\n\nArtwork by Marisa Morán Jahn: The Driver (detail)\, from MIRROR | MASK series\, featuring Darlyne Komukama. 2017\, Uganda UID:59587-14754467@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/59587 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Activism,Art,Exhibition,immigration LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190102T121619 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190202T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190202T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Paul Rand: The Designer's Task DESCRIPTION:Paul Rand's visionary conceptions of brand identity \nPaul Rand was a giant of American design\, whose influential career spanned the second half of the twentieth century. His visionary and pithy conceptions of corporate and non-profit brand identities—though often graphically minimal—embody the artist’s complex philosophy\, interest in modernist aesthetics\, and singular wit. This exhibition features posters\, book covers\, and packaging designs from Rand’s beginnings as a pro bono designer for arts and culture publications like Direction magazine to his decades of crafting trailblazing corporate design for companies such as IBM. Paul Rand: The Designer’s Task affords viewers the opportunity to explore the genre of graphic design within the context of the art museum and examine how Rand’s intellectual process and impact on visual culture developed over time.\n\n UID:58560-14511097@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/58560 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Exhibition,Museum,Philosophy,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - The Jan and David Brandon Family Bridge CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190102T121618 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190202T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190202T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Proof: The Ryoichi Excavations DESCRIPTION:A narrative of Ryoichi's archaeological work \nThe story of Japanese archaeologist Ryoichi and evidence of his worldwide excavations are explored by Patrick Nagatani in this series of photographs.

Originally hailing from a small Wisconsin town made world famous by a pair of overalls (Oshkosh\, B'Gosh)\, the now Milwaukee-based folk band have cultivated a sensibility beyond their years due in part to the powerful literary force that is frontwoman and songwriter Vos. Raised on Bible hymns by her preacher father\, she has a backstory that sounds more like that of an old bluesman from the Mississippi Delta than that of a young folk singer from Wisconsin. Despite their youth\, Dead Horses have crafted a timeless sound\, informed as much by modern Americana as it is by traditional roots music. They've worked with producer Ken Coomer (Wilco\, Uncle Tupelo) who later invited the band to his studio to record the album\, \"Cartoon Moon.\" No Depression called their current album\, \"My Mother the Moon\,\" one of the best of 2018 so far.\n\nThe Brother Brothers\, twins\, are Brooklyn's Adam and Davis Moss. They offer rich harmonies and thoughtful songs accompanied by guitar\, cello\, violin\, and banjo in a coherent way that only musicians from the same family can achieve. Already established players and composers in a wide spectrum of genres around New York and beyond\, they finally teamed up to bring their individual experiences together. Among their fans is Sarah Jarosz\, who raves: \"They approach their poignant and often charming songs with an almost startling sense of ease\, and the tight harmonies are enough to send shivers down anyone’s spine. Their ability to pull the listener into their quietly energetic musical journey is a joy to behold.\" The Brother Brothers come to Michigan with their brand new debut album\, \"Some People I Know.

She is passionate about painting plein air (outdoors) whenever possible\, as she feels the direct observation from life is the best teacher to truly see the subtleties of light and color in nature.

As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts\, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects\; bilingualism in Egypt\; books read by the Egyptian monks\; and the works of Shenoute the Great\, the most important author of Coptic literature.\n\nThis exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.\n\nJoin us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

For the first time\, The Mighty and the Mythic brings together three key projects — CareForce (2012– ongoing)\, Bibliobandido (2010–ongoing)\, and MIRROR | MASK (2017–ongoing) — that highlight her deep and meaningful collaborations with low-wage immigrants\, caregivers\, and youth. Jahn describes her use of play and humor as essential tools that enable her and her collaborators to portray their lives with dignity\, critique power\, and build momentum within their community. Jahn’s practice is deeply informed by her own experiences growing up as a second-generation immigrant of Chinese and Ecuadorian heritage. For Jahn home was not a fixed place but an adaptation itself. Her varied vocational past as a schoolteacher\, caretaker\, woodshop cleaner-upper\, lumber hauler\, community organizer\, and now university professor and mother informs the urgency in her work to find common ground between (her-)self and (an-)other\, through the concepts of care and empathy. Each of the works in this exhibition highlights her deep engagement with the stories of everyday people\, mundane routines\, and a desire to build an inclusive society. Marisa Morán Jahn: the Mighty and the Mythic celebrates and acknowledges the daily struggles and minor victories of the 99 percent that make up the spirit of our society in the twenty-first century.\n\nArtwork by Marisa Morán Jahn: The Driver (detail)\, from MIRROR | MASK series\, featuring Darlyne Komukama. 2017\, Uganda UID:59587-14754468@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/59587 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Activism,Art,Exhibition,immigration LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180815T103906 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190203T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190203T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s DESCRIPTION:Can abstract art be about politics? In the early 1970s\, that question was hotly debated as artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. Many of those debates centered on bringing to light the roles that gender and race played in how “great modern art” was defined and assessed\, and on employing art to advance civil rights. Within this discourse\, abstraction had an especially fraught role. To many\, the decision by women artists and artists of color to make abstract art seemed to represent a retreat from politics and protest: an abnegation of a commitment to civil rights and feminism. \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" presents large-scale work by four leading American artists—Helen Frankenthaler\, Sam Gilliam\, Al Loving\, and Louise Nevelson—who chose abstraction as a means of expression within the intense political climate of the early 1970s.\n\nLead support for \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

His visionary and pithy conceptions of corporate and non-profit brand identities—though often graphically minimal—embody the artist’s complex philosophy\, interest in modernist aesthetics\, and singular wit. This exhibition features posters\, book covers\, and packaging designs from Rand’s beginnings as a pro bono designer for arts and culture publications like Direction magazine to his decades of crafting trailblazing corporate design for companies such as IBM. Paul Rand: The Designer’s Task affords viewers the opportunity to explore the genre of graphic design within the context of the art museum and examine how Rand’s intellectual process and impact on visual culture developed over time.\n\n UID:58560-14511098@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/58560 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Exhibition,Museum,Philosophy,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - The Jan and David Brandon Family Bridge CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190102T121618 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190203T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190203T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Proof: The Ryoichi Excavations DESCRIPTION:A narrative of Ryoichi's archaeological work \nThe story of Japanese archaeologist Ryoichi and evidence of his worldwide excavations are explored by Patrick Nagatani in this series of photographs.

She is passionate about painting plein air (outdoors) whenever possible\, as she feels the direct observation from life is the best teacher to truly see the subtleties of light and color in nature. Working on sanded paper\, her process begins with a pastel and alcohol/mineral spirits under-painting wash to establish value and color. Soft pastel is applied in layers\, often in contrasting color and temperatures for vibrancy. Over her 35-year career in painting\, Will has won numerous national awards. She also operates a custom framing business from her home/studio in Washington Township and teaches occasional workshops.

Alluding to feelings of pain\, otherness\, power and triumph\, \"she was here\, once\" features work that illustrates a moment of remembrance and reflection on the women who have roamed these spaces before us.\n\nIn summer 2018\, artist Nastassja Swift organized a collaborative workshop and public performance in her home city of Richmond\, Virginia. Using a range of choreographed movement\, sound\, and solidarity\, eight Black women and girls\, wearing large needle felted wool masks\, traced the ancestral footprints of the arrival of the Black body in Richmond. The 3.5 mile walk began in Shockoe Bottom (the site of the importation of slaves into Richmond\, and one of the largest sources of slave trade in America) and concluded in the Jackson Ward neighborhood (one of the largest Black communities in Richmond).\n\nThe multi-layered piece has produced a short film\, mini documentary\, photography\, and performance masks\, on display in her solo exhibition\, \"she was here\, once\" in Lane Hall.\n\nLane Hall Gallery is open to the public weekdays from 8am - 4pm.

As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts\, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects\; bilingualism in Egypt\; books read by the Egyptian monks\; and the works of Shenoute the Great\, the most important author of Coptic literature.\n\nThis exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.\n\nJoin us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

Starting in 2014\, University of Michigan researchers in the Department of Psychology began contacting these sites\, largely through cold calls\, to participate in brief surveys regarding their available mental health services. Using this initial contact as a springboard to develop a relationship\, a four-year project including multiple visits to several of these health centers was ultimately conducted. This presentation will discuss how a sequential mixed methods approach to research can be applied in the development of long-term research relationships while also improving the depth and quality of the research itself\, using this multi-year project in urban Indian health to illustrate these points.

In an era of fake news and daily hyperbole\, Opdyke literally changes the picture by hand painting on 528 vintage postcards of well-known American landmarks and destinations. The postcards are assembled into a large mural--a vast gridded landscape beset by environmental chaos. Each card is placed to fit into the overall image\, and carefully modified with the gouache to show a realistically rendered piece of the overall turmoil.\n\nThe installation also features animated shorts and script-driven video\, which take place within the visual confines of one or more postcards. The animation is inspired\, in part\, by Terry Gilliam’s animation work on Monty Python’s \"Flying Circus\" and by the classical music sound effects in the Road Runner cartoons.\n\nAbout David Opdyke:\nDavid Opdyke is a draughtsman\, sculptor\, and animator known for his trenchant political send-ups of American culture. Born in Schenectady\, NY in 1969\, he graduated from the University of Cincinnati with a degree in painting and sculpture. His work is informed by the massive industrial and corporate restructuring he witnessed growing up\, namely the abandonment of the city center by manufacturing giants General Electric and ALCO. As GE shifted resources to neighboring Niskayuna\, the disparities became hard for Opdyke to ignore. Massive\, decaying factories\, an empty interstate loop\, and unemployment were downtown\; new streets\, expensive homes\, sushi and shopping malls were in the suburbs.\n\nFor 20 years Opdyke worked as a scenic painter and architectural model-maker. Ranging from intricate miniature constructions to room-sized installations\, his artwork explores globalization\, consumerism\, and civilization’s abusive relationship with the environment.\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

At this workshop you will learn how to think more strategically about your social media strategy and presence. More specifically\, you’ll decide what type of “professional persona” you are trying to portray and then you’ll learn some tactics and techniques for building your social media network. This workshop will focus on the following social media tools: LinkedIn\, Twitter\, WordPress\, Academica.edu\, Hoot-suite\, and If This Then That.\nPre-registration is required at https://myumi.ch/LEomk.

Register here: http://myumi.ch/J9DqN\n\nGeared toward undergraduate students and focusing on the current exhibitions at the Institute for the Humanities\, this contemporary series of discussions offers a fresh take on the basics of looking and evaluating art in the gallery and how it’s organized\, making the connection from the traditional “white cube gallery” to iGen visual worlds like Facebook and Instagram. Lunch will be served. Today: How to look at the art of David Opdyke with Institute for the Humanities curator Amanda Krugliak. Register here: http://myumi.ch/J9DqN\n\nAbout the exhibition: \n\nIn keeping with artist David Opdyke’s previous work\, this site-specific installation serves as a critique of U.S. culture and politics. In an era of fake news and daily hyperbole\, Opdyke literally changes the picture by hand painting on 528 vintage postcards of well-known American landmarks and destinations. The postcards are assembled into a large mural--a vast gridded landscape beset by environmental chaos. Each card is placed to fit into the overall image\, and carefully modified with the gouache to show a realistically rendered piece of the overall turmoil.\n\nThe installation also features animated shorts and script-driven video\, which take place within the visual confines of one or more postcards. The animation is inspired\, in part\, by Terry Gilliam’s animation work on Monty Python’s \"Flying Circus\" and by the classical music sound effects in the Road Runner cartoons.\n\nAbout David Opdyke:\nDavid Opdyke is a draughtsman\, sculptor\, and animator known for his trenchant political send-ups of American culture. Born in Schenectady\, NY in 1969\, he graduated from the University of Cincinnati with a degree in painting and sculpture. His work is informed by the massive industrial and corporate restructuring he witnessed growing up\, namely the abandonment of the city center by manufacturing giants General Electric and ALCO. As GE shifted resources to neighboring Niskayuna\, the disparities became hard for Opdyke to ignore. Massive\, decaying factories\, an empty interstate loop\, and unemployment were downtown\; new streets\, expensive homes\, sushi and shopping malls were in the suburbs.\n\nFor 20 years Opdyke worked as a scenic painter and architectural model-maker. Ranging from intricate miniature constructions to room-sized installations\, his artwork explores globalization\, consumerism\, and civilization’s abusive relationship with the environment.\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

There are four families of chromatin remodelers\, defined by the ATPase subunit of the complex. Although each family is often treated as a singular entity\, in reality\, the composition of remodeling complexes can vary greatly based on the inclusion of different subunits. SWI/SNF is the chromatin remodeler that best exemplifies the idea of compositional heterogeneity. More than half of its 12-15 subunits can be filled by mutually exclusive proteins. Despite the many studies on the function of SWI/SNF\, considerably fewer have focused on regulation of assembly and composition of the complex. The goal of my lab is to understand how the composition of a chromatin remodeling complex is regulated\, and how altered chromatin remodeling disrupts normal chromatin state and contributes to disease. My work integrates quantitative genomics\, biochemistry\, and molecular biology to develop a mechanistic understanding of how changes to the composition of a chromatin remodeling complex affects its function. \n\nSpeaker:\nJesse Raab received his Ph.D. from The University of California Santa Cruz working with Dr. Rohinton Kamakaka to uncover the role of human tRNA genes as chromatin insulator elements. In 2012\, he joined the lab of Terry Magnuson to study how changes to the composition of chromatin remodeling complexes affect their function. He is now a research assistant professor in the Department of Genetics at the University of North Carolina\, Chapel Hill\, where he has continued his research to understand how disruption of chromatin remodeling complex composition contributes to disease.

Omenn and Martha A. Darling Health Policy Fund.\n\nAbout the event:\n\nGun violence represents a significant social problem in the United States. In a single week\, the U.S. experiences\, on average\, over 1\,200 gun-related incidents\, including accidents\, suicides\, homicides\, and mass shootings. Of all developed nations\, the U.S. has - by far - the highest rates of gun ownership and gun violence.\n\nMany competing lenses frame the primary causes or drivers of the unique and multi-faceted problem of gun violence in the U.S.\, lenses that invoke perspectives on crime\, race\, mental health\, immigration\, and other contentious issues. Moreover\, the topic of gun violence results in extremely heated\, bitter\, and politically-divisive policy debates. This will be a moderated discussion with a panel of experts who have competing views on how best to frame or define the problem of gun violence and priority policy solutions.\n\nPanelists:\n\nJane Coaston\, Senior politics reporter at VOX\n\nJonathan Metzl\, MD\, PhD\, Professor of Psychiatry and Sociology\, Director of the Center for Medicine\, Health and Society at Vanderbilt University\n\nRebecca Cunningham\, MD\, Professor of Emergency Medicine\, Director of Injury Prevention Center\, and Associate Vice President for Research-Health Sciences\, University of Michigan\n\nModerator:\n\nPaula Lantz\, PhD\, Professor of Public Policy\, Associate Dean for Academic Affairs\, Ford School of Public Policy\n\nFor more information\, visit http://myumi.ch/aKrYo.

These texts come with a number of challenges – philological\, methodological\, hermeneutic – while also being fascinating literary artifacts. At the very least\, they require a kind of treatment that would do justice to the determined interplay of what this talk will identify as their key features: a creative engagement with classical forms and genres\; a programmatic interest in European paradigms\; and a firm grasp of the realities and exigencies of the Ottoman status quo.\n\nBio:\n\nNikos Panou is Assistant Professor of Comparative Literature and Peter V. Tsantes Endowed Professor in Hellenic Studies at Stony Brook University. He received his Ph.D. in Comparative Literature from Harvard University and has been a postdoctoral fellow at the Seeger Center for Hellenic Studies and the Society of Fellows in the Liberal Arts\, Princeton University. Before moving to Stony Brook he was a Visiting Assistant Professor of Comparative Literature at Brown University.

It was greater than any watershed since the rise of agriculture and the first cities. And in relational terms\, it was greater than the rise of the steam engine. These historical questions have assumed new salience in an era of runaway global warming and the Anthropocene narrative\, which seeks to explain the origins and prime movers behind such deepening planetary instability. In this talk\, environmental historian Jason W. Moore explains why and how the early modern origins of capitalism – understood as a world-ecology of power\, capital\, and nature – have shaped the crises of the 21st century.

Located amidst the stunning beauty of the Tatra Mountains\, it is Poland’s best-known holiday resort. Tourism has been growing there since the 1870s\, when wealthy outsiders began building holiday homes to enjoy the town’s picturesque location. \n\nWith the outbreak of the First World War\, many Zakopane residents rushed off to fight\, but many others sought refuge in Zakopane to wait out the global conflict. The writer Stefan Żeromski became the informal leader of those who remained. As the war came to an end\, the Austro-Hungarian and German Empires collapsed\, joining the Russian Empire that had fallen a year earlier\, creating a confusing vacuum of authority. On October 31\, 1918\, a group of politicians\, intellectuals\, and local activists in Zakopane took the initiative to disarm the local Austrian military police\, and on November 1st they proclaimed the formation of a “National Council\,” under Żeromski’s leadership. Thus was born the “Republic of Zakopane.” \n\nAlthough Poles celebrate November 11\, 1918\, as the anniversary of independence\, in fact there were many such proclamations in various towns and cities during those tumultuous weeks\, each capturing a different vision of what this new country might become. The “Republic of Zakopane” may seem like an idiosyncratic curiosity\, but it exemplifies the rich diversity of attitudes\, dreams\, and hopes that blossomed in 1918. \n \nMaciej Krupa is a journalist and mountain guide who lives and works in Zakopane\, Poland. An anthropologist and historian by training\, he is the co-founder of the local weekly newspaper\, \"Tygodnik Podhalanski\,\" and a former BBC World Service producer. Krupa has authored and co-authored several books and numerous publications on topics related to Zakopane and the Tatra Mountains. His most recent works in English include: \"The Tatras\,\" \"Zakopane\,\" \"Podhale\" (2018)\; \"The Outstanding Residents of the Zakopane Trail\" (2017)\; and \"Zakopane\, Past and Present\" (2004). \n\nThis lecture marks the opening “100 Years of Polish Independence: Zakopane 1918\,” an exhibition of photographs from the archives of the Tatra Museum in Zakopane\, Poland. The Copernicus Program in Polish Studies has curated the exhibit and organized public lectures in collaboration with the Tatra Museum\, the Adam Mickiewicz Institute in Warsaw\, and Culture.pl as part of POLSKA 100\, an international cultural program commemorating the centenary of Poland regaining Independence. It is financed by the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage of the Republic of Poland as part of the multi-year program NIEPODLEGŁA 2017-22. \n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to copernicus@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

Soft pastel is applied in layers\, often in contrasting color and temperatures for vibrancy. Over her 35-year career in painting\, Will has won numerous national awards. She also operates a custom framing business from her home/studio in Washington Township and teaches occasional workshops.

Using a range of choreographed movement\, sound\, and solidarity\, eight Black women and girls\, wearing large needle felted wool masks\, traced the ancestral footprints of the arrival of the Black body in Richmond. The 3.5 mile walk began in Shockoe Bottom (the site of the importation of slaves into Richmond\, and one of the largest sources of slave trade in America) and concluded in the Jackson Ward neighborhood (one of the largest Black communities in Richmond).\n\nThe multi-layered piece has produced a short film\, mini documentary\, photography\, and performance masks\, on display in her solo exhibition\, \"she was here\, once\" in Lane Hall.\n\nLane Hall Gallery is open to the public weekdays from 8am - 4pm.

This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects\; bilingualism in Egypt\; books read by the Egyptian monks\; and the works of Shenoute the Great\, the most important author of Coptic literature.\n\nThis exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities.

In an era of fake news and daily hyperbole\, Opdyke literally changes the picture by hand painting on 528 vintage postcards of well-known American landmarks and destinations. The postcards are assembled into a large mural--a vast gridded landscape beset by environmental chaos. Each card is placed to fit into the overall image\, and carefully modified with the gouache to show a realistically rendered piece of the overall turmoil.\n\nThe installation also features animated shorts and script-driven video\, which take place within the visual confines of one or more postcards. The animation is inspired\, in part\, by Terry Gilliam’s animation work on Monty Python’s \"Flying Circus\" and by the classical music sound effects in the Road Runner cartoons.\n\nAbout David Opdyke:\nDavid Opdyke is a draughtsman\, sculptor\, and animator known for his trenchant political send-ups of American culture. Born in Schenectady\, NY in 1969\, he graduated from the University of Cincinnati with a degree in painting and sculpture. His work is informed by the massive industrial and corporate restructuring he witnessed growing up\, namely the abandonment of the city center by manufacturing giants General Electric and ALCO. As GE shifted resources to neighboring Niskayuna\, the disparities became hard for Opdyke to ignore. Massive\, decaying factories\, an empty interstate loop\, and unemployment were downtown\; new streets\, expensive homes\, sushi and shopping malls were in the suburbs.\n\nFor 20 years Opdyke worked as a scenic painter and architectural model-maker. Ranging from intricate miniature constructions to room-sized installations\, his artwork explores globalization\, consumerism\, and civilization’s abusive relationship with the environment.\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.
