Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621382@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240828T103733 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240905T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240905T130000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:7th Annual Business+Impact Showcase DESCRIPTION:Thurs\, Sept. 5 @ 11 am – 1 pm\nRoss School of Business\nRSB Sixth Floor\, Tauber Colloquium\n\nWelcome new and returning students!

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).

Or using a Jordan curve? The first question can be answered by considering \"higher order Voronoi diagrams\"\; the latter can be answered by observing these diagrams have a \"plabic\" structure (in the sense of Postnikov). This gives a bijection between such Jordan curves and degree 1 cluster variables in the cluster algebra of type X7\, an exceptional cluster algebra about which little is known. This correspondence allows us to translate structure theorems about cluster algebras into remarkable results on the structure of Jordan curves with 3 dots on either side. As an application\, we translate these results into analogous results on \"separating curves in the closed surface of genus 2\"\; specifically\, we show that the g=2 separating curve complex is a strongly connected 6-dimensional pseudomanifold. On joint work with James Beyer and Jaewon Min.\n\nThis talk will take place in East Hall 4448.

She is an expert in mixed-integer\, large-scale\, and stochastic optimization and their applications across numerous domains\, including social networks\, computing and energy infrastructure\, statistical learning\, and logistics. She is an INFORMS Fellow\, and the recipient of the NSF CAREER Award and the INFORMS Computing Society (ICS) Prize. She is the past chair of ICS and serves on the editorial boards of Mathematics of Operations Research\, Mathematical Programming\, Operations Research\, SIAM Journal on Optimization\, and MOS-SIAM Optimization Book Series. She received her Ph.D. in Industrial Engineering and Operations Research from the University of California\, Berkeley.\n\nAbstract:\nBayesian Networks (BNs) represent conditional probability relations among a set of random variables (nodes) in the form of a directed acyclic graph (DAG)\, and have found diverse applications in casual discovery. We study the problem of learning the sparse DAG structure of a BN from continuous observational data. The central problem can be modeled as a mixed-integer program with an objective function composed of a convex loss function and a regularization penalty subject to linear constraints. The optimal solution to this mathematical program is known to have desirable statistical properties under certain conditions. However\, the state-of-the-art optimization solvers are not able to obtain provably optimal solutions to the existing mathematical formulations for medium-size problems within reasonable computational times. To address this difficulty\, we tackle the problem from both computational and statistical perspectives. On the one hand\, we propose a concrete early stopping criterion to terminate the branch-and-bound process in order to obtain a near-optimal solution to the mixed-integer program\, and establish the consistency of this approximate solution. On the other hand\, we improve the existing formulations by replacing the linear big-M constraints that represent the relationship between the continuous and binary indicator variables with second-order conic constraints. Our numerical results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approaches. This is joint work with Tong Xu\, Armeen Taeb\, Ali Shojaie.

CRISPR-Cas9 technology allows us to precisely modify the genome. Gene insertion using Cas9 may restore the expression of these missing genes and treat genetic disorders. This restoration may be durable if achieved in long-lived tissue resident stem cells that give rise to different organs. However\, efficient gene insertion in stem cells in vivo is a technical challenge that limits the development of durable therapies for genetic disorders. We aim to develop improved methods to insert genes in stem cells both ex-vivo and in vivo for the treatment of genetic disorders.\n\nOur studies focus on replacing the CFTR gene that is involved in cystic fibrosis (CF). CF is a monogenic disorder that affects the lungs and many other organs. People with CF (pwCF) experience chronic infections that result in lung failure and death. Replacement of the CFTR gene in airway stem cells is thus likely to improve the survival of pwCF. However\, this is challenging because it is a long gene (~4500 bp) that does not fit into adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors that enable efficient gene insertion. Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) packaged with Cas9 mRNA\, sgRNA and single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) templates have been proposed as an alternative. ssDNA templates do not pose any size restriction theoretically. However\, they are prone to degradation by nucleases even when the last few bases are protected by chemical modifications. Recent studies from our group have investigated if protection of internal bases within ssDNA templates may limit nuclease degradation further and improve gene insertion. Our studies show that the modification of internal bases improves gene correction by 2-3-fold in airway stem cells. The correction of CF-causing mutations using internal base modified templates restores CFTR function to 30-60% of the levels seen in non-CF controls. Our chemically modified ssDNA templates are effective when delivered using lipid nanoparticles and electroporation. Moreover\, these templates are effective in other therapeutically relevant cells such as hematopoietic stem cells and T-cells. Ongoing studies are testing if these chemically modified ssDNA templates improve gene insertion in vivo. Apart from this study\, our group is interested in alternative strategies to improve gene insertion through the modulation of DNA repair pathways and in developing improved methods to transplant genome engineered stem cells into the airways. Overall\, these novel approaches to genome engineer stem cells may enable the development of durable therapies for devastating diseases such as CF.\n\nBio:\nSriram Vaidyanathan\, PhD\, is a principal investigator in the Center for Gene Therapy at the Abigail Wexner Research Institute at Nationwide Children’s Hospital and an assistant professor of Pediatrics at The Ohio State University College of Medicine.

Traditional detection pipelines rely on sequential data processing with incomplete signal models at each step\, which can lead to overfitting and reduced detection sensitivity for faint exoplanetary signals. In this talk\, I will first describe my work on robust data-driven signal models and tractable joint-modeling approaches to improve the detection of weak exoplanet signals in transit light curves. These new joint-modelling approaches were used to search Kepler/TESS data and have so far uncovered 16 new data-rich exoplanet candidates.\nAnticipating future missions to directly image exoplanets with Earth-Sun sensitivities\, the second half of this talk will focus on optical modeling of starshades. Here I will present my work on developing tractable optical simulation techniques\, which I use to study the performance of starshades in the context of realistic astrophysical scenes. Broadly\, this work aims to assess the utility of starshades in preparation for HWO.\n\n\nFan’s Title: How do supermassive black holes grow from z = 4 to z = 0?\n\nAbstract: Supermassive black holes (SMBHs) grow together with their host galaxies throughout cosmic time\, and two growth channels are present – accretion and merger. I will talk about our recent efforts to build a complete picture of the SMBH growth under these two channels. Regarding the accretion channel\, the population mean SMBH accretion rate primarily correlates with galaxy stellar mass and redshift for the general galaxy population. I will present the survey data preparations briefly and the best measurements of this function\, where we use X-rays to sample the AGN accretion power and multiwavelength surveys to sample galaxies. I will then combine our observed accretion with modern cosmological simulations\, which provide merger information\, to illustrate how SMBHs evolve from z = 4 to z = 0. Our analyses can predict multiple properties of the SMBH population\, such as their mass function\, their scaling relation with their host stellar mass\, and the contributions of the two growth channels to the overall SMBH population growth.

In this talk\, I will discuss singularity formation in incompressible Euler equations with smooth data and boundary and present a framework for stable nearly self-similar blowup. In contrast to incompressible fluids\, singularity formation in compressible Euler equations has been established for a long time. However\, whether vorticity blows up in compressible fluids at the first singular time remains an open problem. We will generalize several methods and insights from incompressible fluids to establish vorticity blowup in compressible Euler equations with smooth and non-vacuous initial data.

Access to the fully conjugated\, 20 π-electron\, formally antiaromatic system is accomplished via a variety of intermediate diones. These molecules in turn can be assembled via well-known organic possesses (Suzuki cross-coupling\, benzylic oxidation\, Friedel-Crafts acylation/alkylation). Optimization of their synthesis now permits access to IF derivatives in multigram quantities.

We develop a model of search demand in which consumer choices are influenced by switching costs\, quality beliefs\, and inattention\, and estimate it using data from a field experiment with US desktop internet users. We find that (i) requiring Google users to make an active choice among search engines does not change market shares\, implying that switching costs play a limited role\; (ii) Google users who are paid to try Bing for two weeks update positively about its relative quality\, with a significant share preferring to continue using it\; (iii) switching defaults increases Bing market share by more than correcting quality beliefs\, consistent with persistent inattention. Correcting beliefs and removing choice frictions would increase Bing’s market share and increase consumer surplus. Policies that affect defaults are more effective than those requiring active choice. In the final part of the paper\, we use Microsoft search logs to assess the impact of additional data on search result relevance. The results suggest that sharing Google’s click-and-query data with Microsoft may have a limited effect on market shares.

This delay can result in a GPS positioning error. Thus\, it is important to monitor and forecast the TEC maps. However\, the observed TEC maps have big patches of missingness in the ocean and scattered small areas on the land. Thus\, precise imputation and prediction of the TEC maps are crucial in space weather forecasting. \n\nIn this talk\, I first present several extensions of existing matrix completion algorithms to achieve TEC map reconstruction\, accounting for spatial smoothness and temporal consistency while preserving essential structures of the TEC maps. We show that our proposed method achieves better reconstructed TEC maps as compared to existing methods in the literature. I will also briefly describe the use of our large-scale complete TEC database. Then\, I present a new model for forecasting time series data distributed on a matrix-shaped spatial grid\, using the historical spatiotemporal data and auxiliary vector-valued time series data. Large sample asymptotics of the estimators for both finite and high dimensional settings are established\, and performances of the model are validated with extensive simulation studies and an application to forecast the global TEC distributions.\n\nhttps://yangchenfunstatistics.github.io/yangchen.github.io/ UID:124531-21853147@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/124531 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:seminar LOCATION:West Hall - 340 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240130T121551 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240906T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240906T200000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621383@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240921T123245 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240906T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240906T113000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Exact Sciences Future Forward: Starting your Career Path DESCRIPTION:About the Event:During this interactive session\, you'll have the opportunity to hear from seasoned recruiters who specialize in talent acquisition for one of the leading biotechnology companies in the industry.

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).

Identifying Indigenous Religious Practices in Archaic Greek Sicily DESCRIPTION:Archaic Sicily\, like the island today\, was famous for its agricultural fertility. With its rich and abundant fields\, it is no surprise that Sicily was also a renowned center for the veneration of Demeter and Persephone. Sanctuaries for the worship of the two agricultural goddesses emerged most everywhere on the island in the 6th century BCE—some two centuries after the initial establishment of Greek settlements.\n\nIn this Flash Talk\, IPAMAA student Alex Moskowitz investigates a practice evident at these sanctuaries that is little known elsewhere in the Greek world: the dedication of intentionally broken bronze and iron ingots in votive deposits. He suggests that the archaeology of Indigenous Sicilian communities may explain this phenomenon and\, in doing so\, offers new insights into the complicated relationship between Indigenous and Greek communities in Archaic Sicily.\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. They take place at noon on the first Friday of every month.\n\nTo register for this event\, visit https://forms.gle/n9hffFrSrdfKY2RQ8.

FFRDCs are partnerships between a government agency (like DoE\, DoD\, NASA\, NSF\, etc) and a private institution (usually universities) with the goal to do science research on behalf of the government\, outside of any organizational conflicts of interest that can arise in industry contracts. I’ll talk about how a DoD lab like Lincoln is different from DoE labs like Argonne\, Fermi\, or LBNL National Labs\, and how it’s different from working in industry or academia\, both in terms of the types of projects and the project funding paths. The MIT-LL employee base includes a wide variety scientists and engineers at the PhD\, MS/ME\, and BS/BA/BE levels\; I’ll give an overview of research topics across the Lab with special attention to areas with significant physics presence. In particular\, I’ll show some results from my group’s MACHETE ladar mapping sensor and talk about how physics and engineering intersect when we’re designing and testing airborne sensor platforms.\n\nThe Multi-look Airborne Collector for Human Encampment and Terrain Extraction (MACHETE) is a ladar system that produces high-quality\, 3D imagery from data captured from an altitude of 25 kft over a wide area at a very fast coverage rate. This system also can peek through openings in dense canopy to form detailed images of natural and human-made structures existing at and near the ground level. For a forested area that has 90% canopy cover and is the size of New York City’s Central Park (3.4 km 2 )\, MACHETE can provide detailed images of every building\, footbridge\, and walkway below the canopy at 25 cm resolution in about 5 minutes.\n\nEmily Peterson is a ladar and optical sensor designer at MIT Lincoln Laboratory\, and is an AMO physicist by training\, with a PhD from University of Michigan in 2005. She did her dissertation work in Phil Bucksbaum’s group using ultrafast lasers to study nonsequential double ionization of noble gasses\, and polarization-driven molecular alignment. That work extended to time-resolved x-ray measurements of laser-ionization processes during a post-doc at Argonne National Lab. In 2008 she joined the plasma spectroscopy group at Osram-Sylvania Lighting to study high-pressure discharge lamp technologies\, until industry funding for plasma R&D faded with increasing consumer interest in LEDs. Since 2014\, she has applied her grad school skills with pulsed lasers\, detection statistics\, optics and electronics hardware\, and experiment design in the Active Optical Systems group at MIT Lincoln Lab\, where she models\, designs\, builds\, and tests ladar sensor systems.

The role of flexible work policies and their implementation DESCRIPTION:This study examines how flexible work policies (e.g.\, time off\, flextime\, working from home) can help to change the “overwork” culture prevailing in American workplaces and its impact on employees’ work and health outcomes. Using the original survey of 4\,013 employees\, based on a probability-based panel designed to be representative of the U.S. household population\, we find that “ideal worker” norms – which promote a single-minded commitment to work – largely persist in organizations offering flexible work polices. However\, we also find that when these policies are implemented with additional organizational support -- gender-neutral framing\, transparency in policy granting\, and easy accessibility\, and managerial support -- employees are less likely to associate “successful employees” with the ideal worker norm of working long hours\, unlimited availability\, and prioritizing work over other matters. Moreover\, employees under these conditions report higher self-assessed job fit and job satisfaction and better health outcomes\, compared to employees in organizations where flexible work policies are implemented in less supportive\, more gendered\, and more discretionary ways. These findings suggest that the efficacy of flexible work policies depends more on how these policies are implemented\, rather than just their availability.

Examples range from bird flocks and human crowds to migrating cells and biopolymer gels\, including synthetic systems like phoretic colloids and robots. Such active materials exhibit emergent collective phenomena that break cherished conservation laws (of energy\, mass\, momentum\, etc.)\, and raise natural questions regarding how they can be controlled. I will discuss a few different vignettes on our recent efforts in this direction\, highlighting implications for the design of novel metamaterials and biomimetic constructs.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nContact: Silas Alben UID:121465-21846577@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/121465 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Mathematics,Physics LOCATION:East Hall - 1084 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240904T125146 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240906T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240906T160000 SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:Barbour Newberry Multicultural Council Information Session DESCRIPTION:Are you looking to get involved and have a positive impact within your community?

This chemical stratification of the crust is deeply influenced by metamorphism and partial melting of the middle-to-lower continental crust. These processes are energy intensive\, particularly in the middle crust due to elevated heat fluxes imposed by surface temperatures. Moreover\, contrary to the view of a global mafic lower crust\, felsic metasedimentary rocks are commonly found in exhumed metamorphic terranes and xenoliths from the deep crust. The presence of these sedimentary rocks\, which are typically enriched in heat producing elements (U\, Th\, K)\, within the lower crust alters the thermal profile and rheology of the continental crust\, potentially leading to destabilization. In this talk I will explore two Variscan middle-to-lower continental crust exposures\, the Trois Seigneurs Massif\, French Pyrenees\, and the Ivrea-Verbano Zone\, Italian Alps\, to investigate the mechanisms responsible for the addition of sedimentary rocks to the deep crust\, alongside the mechanisms and timescales of metamorphism and partial melting of these sedimentary rocks. Massifs formed at the end of the Variscan Orogeny\, including these two field sites\, record widespread metamorphism and partial melting events within the continental crust\, and as such are ideal places to answer long-standing questions regarding crustal formation and evolution.

It brings together three different modes of representing reality: social\, scientific\, and literary. Colonial ethnography attempted to understand caste as a distinct form of Indian civil society and painstakingly theorized caste-as-race. Colonial nutrition\, drawing on ethnographic understandings of caste\, hierarchized the very innards of Indians by mapping the racial basis of caste along the lines of contemporary dietary debates about protein. All the while\, colonial novelists used ethnographic and dietary understandings of caste to envision their version of a realistic world in a fictional form. The incipient form of the realist novel in India thus deployed caste as the perfect marriage of exteriority and interiority to represent a legible Indian reality in a newly imported form. In connecting these seemingly disparate modes of reality perception\, Sapui argues that in late nineteenth and early twentieth century India\, caste epistemologies\, understood as observable physical differences and knowable communal characteristics\, were key to understanding what is construed as Indian reality. In this regard\, seeing to know—the cornerstone of all empirical knowledge—as this talk will show\, assumes political\, pedagogical\, and insidiously persistent charge.\n\nMeghna Sapui is a postdoctoral fellow at the Michigan Society of Fellows and an assistant professor of English language and literature at the University of Michigan. Her work has appeared in *ELH\, Victorian Literature and Culture\, Victorian Review*\, and *Global Food History*. She is working on her book\, *Edible Empire: Tasting & Writing India*\, which looks at gastro narratives in the literature of British India.\n\n*Made possible with the generous support of the Title VI grant from the U.S. Department of Education.*\n\nFree and open to the public UID:124499-21853110@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/124499 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Anthropology,Asia,Food,India LOCATION:Weiser Hall - Room 555 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240827T181748 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240906T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240906T170000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Go Blue Career Jam 2024 DESCRIPTION:Join the University Career Center and our employer partners for a series of events to help you make the most of the Fall Job & Internship fairs taking place this September and October.

Psychological safety and moral courage bring experts together with the community\, including members of marginalized groups\, to create a healthy foundation. A community feedback system facilitates the identification of workplace climate issues so they are promptly and effectively addressed. Cultural Competence leverages the established safety and courage base to chart a path to an inclusive culture and harness the power of diverse perspectives. Under this framework\, sponsored events can address many forms of oppression and empower thriving workspaces. Collaborating technical and cultural subject matter experts in supported community-based workshops and trainings\, provide a scaffolding for continued growth in individual spaces. Accurate use of the “Healthy to Innovative Framework” in learning and work spaces can transform climates and cultures to maximize innovation in a “People-Centered” focus that drives outcomes and discovery for an emerging fusion and fusion-adjacent energy workforce. \n\nCAPT Royce W.

The multi-GRAMMY nominee is beloved and honored worldwide for the fearlessness\, honesty and humor of her revelatory songs\, as well as for her winning\, engaging personality. The Chicago Tribune says\, “Copeland is the greatest female blues vocalist working today. There’s no mistaking the majesty of her instrument\, nor the ferocity of her delivery.”\n \nOn Copeland’s new album\, Blame It On Eve\, the songs all hit hard\, with jaw-dropping performances that instantly take hold and command repeated listening. “There’s serious business on the new album\,” Copeland says\, “but there are a lot of smiles here too\, a lot of joyous moments. It’s my blues for sure but it’s the brighter side. Issues are always important to me\, but so is rocking\, dancing and just having fun. And that’s something we all can all agree on.”\n\nWith Blame It On Eve\, Copeland embarks on what she calls “a vacation from all the heaviness.” Blame It On Eve contains plenty of Copeland’s trademark bold and courageous songs\, but here Copeland is also looking to unplug from the weight of the world. “My last three records have dealt with breaking news\,” she says. “This record is for people like me who want a break from the news.” UID:114732-21833394@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114732 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Ark,Concert,Music,Mutotix LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240901T220924 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240906T210000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240906T230000 SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:SAS Open House DESCRIPTION:Open houses are free\, inclusive opportunities to learn more about astronomy and experience the universe firsthand.

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.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621384@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240620T181506 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240907T110200 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240907T170000 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).

This journey leads Sona to discover 1001 Nights and ScherAzad (the bold\, brilliant weaver of tales who counters destruction with creation) and catalyzes an epiphany: the frame story of 1001 Nights is a story of how trauma transpires and how it is healed.\n\n- - -\n\nActress\, screenwriter\, and storyteller\, Sona Tatoyan\, has been invited as this year’s distinguished guest to speak about and preview the art of Karagoz puppetry.

Christo Rupenthal's Novelty Combo from Madison\, WI\, brings a fusion of antique Hawaiian steel guitar and hot club music\, and Erik McIntyre from Flint\, MI will be playing early American archtop guitar influenced by musicians such as Eddie Lang\, whose recordings with violinist Joe Venuti served as the blueprint for Reinhardt and Grapelli's work. With a range of diverse offerings\, united together by enthusiasm\, skill\, and passion for the legacy surrounding the music of Django Reinhardt\, this iteration of Ann Arbor's burgeoning new series is sure to delight\, transport\, and inspire.\n \nDjangophonique is an award winning project that delivers the infectious joy\, and expressive freedom that is at the heart of Django Reinhardt’s jazz manouche. With respect for the tradition and a fearless creativity that bends the conventions of the style\, Djangophonique is keeping the Hot Club revival alive and well. The result is a sound that’s unmistakable to fans of the music\, and alluring to the uninitiated—a sound that can bring the lively energy of a Parisian dance hall to the quietest listening room or captivate a buzzing festival audience with the aching nostalgia of a shimmering ballad.\n \nChristo Ruppenthal is an award-winning multi-instrumentalist and music entrepreneur whose professional career started in 2003. He presents a unique mixture of Vaudeville-era novelty infused hot steel guitar playing from the 1920s and 30s \"Hawaiian Craze\" combined with the swinging sounds of Django Reinhardt’s 1930s and 40s guitar-driven Hot Club jazz. Think “Hot Hawaiian guitar meets Jazz à la Django!” Christo is an avid recording artist and performer with thousands of gigs both across the U.S. and internationally to his credit. \n\nInspired by a melting pot of moods\, styles\, and spirit heard in recordings from the 1920s and 30s (by such artists as Eddie Lang\, Louis Armstrong\, Blind Blake\, Lonnie Johnson\, Billie Holiday\, Django Reinhardt\, Blind Boy Fuller\, Agustín Barrios Mangoré\, The Carter Family\, Jimmie Rodgers...)\, Erik McIntyre continues to hone a distinct musical voice that pays homage with a personal touch. His playing is spontaneous yet studious — synergizing “muse” and “ic”. Whether as soloist or sideman\, his arrangements\, improvisations\, and compositions weave a tapestry that is filtered through a warm lens of nostalgia and invites listeners to his inner world.

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  UID:107870-21817906@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/107870 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Free,Humanities,Museum,Staff,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch Apse CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240130T121551 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240908T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240908T200000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621385@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240908T120006 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240908T111100 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240908T121100 SUMMARY:Other:H2O Sunday Service DESCRIPTION:Come join us for praise and worship with students and alumni from UoM at the Rackham Building (4th floor).
