The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

The Dynamic Football laminated paper works explore compositions of action\, allowing the artist to exploit the properties of the medium. The pieces are constructed by gluing many layers of paper over wire armatures. When dry\, the sculptures are painted in an often splashy\, sketchy style. Wirtz’ silly animal works are what the artist is best known for\, and they take shape in his Goetzville\, Michigan studio.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Corridor\, Floor 2\n1500 E.

Her large paintings are emotive abstract portraits of specific bodies of water. The Oil on Water exhibition features Eubank’s oil on linen paintings of the Arctic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. She creates patterns within patterns\, representing vertical stacks of rhythms. The undulating forms\, such as water ripples\, oil slicks\, and refuse\, combined with the memories that water evokes\, makes her work eye-opening\, yet soothing and sensual. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Lobby\, Floor 1 \n1500 E.

In Pen & Ink Queens\, Cavanagh draws inspiration from medieval and renaissance-era garments to adorn quirky\, queenly figures. Cavanagh works in a style that is hyper-detailed and intricate\, so she remains present during the creative process. A true Michigander\, Cavanagh was born and raised in Southeast Michigan\, attended U-M\, and currently works in Detroit. Cavanagh makes a concerted effort to exhibit as much as possible in her home state\, and when she is not in her studio\, you can find her cooking\, practicing yoga or playing with her cat\, Benji.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Corridor\, Floor 2\n1500 E.

She immigrated to the U.S. in 1994\, and for the next 22 years\, New York became her home. In 2016\, she moved to Michigan to pursue an MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art. She found the raw beauty of Detroit inspiring and kept her metalsmithing studio practice in the city. The copper and brass vessels in her Ваза series and other included works are a meditation on fluidity of memories: their ability to shift from reflection to re-invention over time. Each vessel potentially holds something within its boundaries\, whether tangible or not. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center North Lobby\, Floor 1\n1500 E.

Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/ UID:63992-16059347@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63992 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Africa,Archaeology,Exhibition,Museum LOCATION:Kelsey Museum of Archaeology CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190808T162032 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190917T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190917T180000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Other Crusoes\, Other Islands: Mapping a Complex Legacy DESCRIPTION:On the 300th anniversary of the publication of The Life and Surprising Adventures of Robinson Crusoe\, of York\, Mariner\, this exhibit interrogates the troubled legacy of Daniel Defoe’s seminal English novel. It also explores how creators have pushed back against the colonialist\, hyper-masculine\, and racist ethos of the text by using the castaway narrative to explore self-sufficiency\, otherness\, and the role of gendered and racialized ideas in constructing the self.\n\nThis novel of shipwreck\, survival\, and rescue has become a cultural touchstone. Today\, many people who haven’t read the novel still feel familiar with key plot elements\, Robinson Crusoe\, and Friday. Yet\, there is less familiarity with how both the original text and many of the adaptations of Robinson Crusoe have fed into and reinforced narratives of imperialism and racism. Drawing on the Hubbard Collection of Imaginary Voyages - one of the world’s most comprehensive collections of editions\, translations\, adaptations\, and spin-offs of Robinson Crusoe - Other Crusoes\, Other Islands seeks to understand how readers and writers have engaged with the story since its initial publication in 1719.\n\nContent Advisory: Please be aware that some items in this exhibit feature racist imagery and potentially painful content. Although Robinson Crusoe is often treated as children’s literature and this exhibit includes children’s books and board games\, it is not an exhibit geared towards children and reflects the significant shifts over time in ideas about what is appropriate for children.

Using woodcut\, painting on canvas\, and mixed media\, Linda Hyong\, Sung Eun Hong\, and Seong Ok Lee explore the world of flowers\, gardens\, and nature in vivid works that slow time to a fleeting present moment.\n\nLinda Hyong is a University of Michigan alumna and former teaching assistant in the U-M Stamps School of Art & Design. She draws her inspiration from Claude Monet’s water lily garden in France to create her own modern interpretation of impressionism. Seong Ok Lee is inspired by flowers\, which she believes are the most beautiful forms in nature.

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.

During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies UID:63803-15884063@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63803 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Museum,Politics,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

The result is an amusing and thoughtful exploration of language\, meaning\, and the conventions of museum presentation and spectatorship.\n \nThe installation\, like much of Berlin-based artist Ceal Floyer’s art\, is characteristically austere\, but its visual simplicity masks a more complicated message—often a wry cerebral twist the artist creates through language-based symbols and aesthetic devices.

rules and exceptions with machine learning ”\n\nABSTRACT\n\nOver the past decade\, first-principles computation has emerged as a powerful complement to experiment in the discovery of new catalysts and materials. In many cases\, computation has excelled most in distilling rules for catalyst structure-property relationships in well defined spaces such as bulk metals into descriptors or linear free energy relationships. More development is needed of computational tools for them to show the same promise in emerging catalytic materials such as single-site metal-organic framework catalysts or single atom catalysts that have increased promise of atom economy and selectivity. In this talk\, I will outline our efforts to accelerate first-principles (i.e.\, with density functional theory\, or DFT) screening of open-shell transition metal catalysts with a focus on challenging reactions (e.g.\, selective partial hydrocarbon oxidation). We have developed tools that not only automate simulation but can be autonomously driven by decision engines that predict which simulations are most promising to be carried out. We also develop neural network machine learning models to accelerate prediction of catalyst reaction energetics and properties at a fraction of the cost of DFT. Paired with new estimates of when such models are reliable\, I will show how we rapidly evaluate properties of 10k-100k catalysts in a fraction of the time that conventional first-principles simulation would require. We use such tools to accelerate the identification of design rules and exceptions to expectations when applied to the wider space of emerging single-atom and single-site catalysts. \n\nSHORT BIO\n\nProfessor Heather J.

We will discuss the effect of engineered plasmonic lattice on light matter interactions in 2D excitonic crystals to produce novel responses such as enhanced and tunable emission\, Fano resonances and strong exciton-plasmon polaritons\, which can be precisely controlled by geometry and applied fields to produce new device concepts. Our recent work on collective polaritonic modes and the formation of a complete polaritonic bandgap in few-layered excitonic semiconductors coupled to plasmons will also be presented along with our ability to control them via externally applied electric fields.\n\nWe will also discuss our efforts to explore the optoelectronic properties of Mo_x W_{1-x} Te_2\, which are type-II Weyl semimetals\, i.e.\, gapless topological states of matter with broken inversion and/or time reversal symmetry\, which exhibit unconventional responses to externally applied fields. We have observed spatially dispersive circular photogalvanic effect (s-CPGE) over a wide spectral region (0.2 - 2.0 eV range) in these materials. This effect shows exclusively in the Weyl phase and vanishes upon temperature induced topological phase change. Since the photon energy leads to interband transitions between different electronic bands\, we use the density matrix formalism to describe the photocurrent response under chiral optical excitation with a spatially inhomogeneous beam. We will discuss how spatially inhomogeneous optical excitation and unique symmetry and band structure of Weyl semimetals produces CPGE in these systems. The effect of band inversion\, Berry curvature and asymmetric carrier relaxation in this material system on the s-CPGE signal will also be discussed along with the implications for designing new and unconventional optoelectronic devices.\n\nShort Biography:\nRitesh Agarwal is a Professor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at the University of Pennsylvania.

DESCRIPTION:Beauty pageants are big business in Nigeria. Drawing from ethnographic fieldwork\, in-depth interviews\, and discursive analysis of print and visual material\, this talk examines how Nigerian beauty contests are transformed by multiple stakeholders into contested vehicles for promoting complex ideas about gender and power\, ethnicity and belonging\, and a rapidly changing articulation of Nigerian nationhood. I theorize beauty diplomacy as a tactic used to redeem Nigeria's poor reputation\, by positioning beauty contestants - young\, upwardly mobile\, and ambitious women - as the aesthetic center of an ethnically diverse nation and the public face of a country on the economic rise.\n​ UID:65167-16547438@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/65167 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:africa,african diaspora,African Studies,economics,Feminism,Nigeria,women's studies LOCATION:Haven Hall - 4701 (DAAS Conference Room) CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190813T163049 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190917T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190917T173000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Donia Human Rights Center Lecture. Rights Make Might: Global Human Rights and Minority Social Movements in Japan DESCRIPTION:Why have the three most salient minority groups in Japan - the politically dormant Ainu\, the active but unsuccessful Koreans\, and the former outcaste group of Burakumin - all expanded their activism since the late 1970s despite the unfavorable domestic political environment? My investigation into the history of the three groups finds an answer in the galvanizing effects of global human rights on local social movements. Drawing on interviews and archival data\, I document the transformative impact of global human rights ideas and institutions on minority activists\, which changed the prevalent understanding about their standing in Japanese society and propelled them to new international venues for political claim making. The global forces also changed the public perception and political calculus in Japan over time\, catalyzing substantial gains for the minority movements. Having benefited from global human rights\, all three groups repaid their debt by contributing to the consolidation and expansion of international human rights principles and instruments. The in-depth historical comparative analysis offers rare windows into local\, micro-level impact of global human rights and contributes to our understanding of international norms and institutions\, social movements\, human rights\, ethnoracial politics\, and Japanese society. \n \nKiyoteru Tsutsui is Professor of Sociology\, Director of the Donia Human Rights Center\, and Director of the Center for Japanese Studies at the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor.

I will consider cellular\, cavitating\, and droplet flows as canonical examples of such flows. Each case is treated using novel computational techniques for simulation. This includes a sub-grid disperse flow model that is based upon particle population moments and improved via recurrent neural networks. The high-fidelity spectral and discretely-conservative interface-capturing methods used to solve for the flow will be discussed\, including a presentation of our new open-source solver\, MFC\, that implements them. These large-scale simulations are complemented by novel analyses based-upon non-modal stability theory\, chaotic dynamical systems\, and stochastic and data-driven techniques. These are interpreted as they apply to microfluidics\, rheometry\, and even feeding humpback whales.\n\nBio \nDr. Spencer Bryngelson is a Senior Postdoctoral Scholar at the California Institute of Technology\, working with Professor Tim Colonius.

The problem of learning the unstable transition matrix of the model is of interest\, e.g. for forecasting hyperinflation episodes and stock market bubbles. Especially\, a non-asymptotic analysis is required for specifying the roles of sample size\, problem dimension\, innovation (noise) distribution\, and key characteristics of the underlying data generation mechanisms.\n\nIn this setting\, the Gram matrix of the observed variables randomly diverges\, wildly explodes\, and is dramatically ill-conditioned. So\, the existing approaches based on concentration or mixing time-series are inapplicable. Also importantly\, recent studies discovered a new condition for explosive processes that is necessary for accurate learning\; being called \"regularity\" of the transition matrix. In this talk\, we present the first set of finite-sample results for the least-squares estimates of the unstable time series with heavy-tailed innovations\, and fully quantify the regularity. We also mention novel approaches for studying the \"anti-concentration\" properties of the underlying random matrices\, being used to obtain the presented results.\n\nFurther discussions consist of learning the unknown model for planning purposes. That is\, designing data-driven input signals which can stabilize the time series\, while matrices encoding the evolution of the process and the influence of the input signals\, are unknown. The first algorithm for fast stabilization under uncertainty is introduced\, with theoretical performance guarantees being established. In order to ensure consistency of estimation\, the proposed procedure utilizes two methods of employing random matrices in the design of the exogenous inputs\; (i) stochastic feedback\, and (ii) stochastic parameter. Numerical examples indicating the effects of both the magnitude and the frequency of the randomizations are provided.\n\nBio:\nMohamad Kazem Shirani Faradonbeh\nis currently a Post-Doctoral Research Associate with the Informatics Institute and the Department of Statistics\nat the University of Florida.

The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

First published in 1572 by Georg Braun (1541-1622) and Frans Hogenberg (1535-1590)\, Civitates was first intended as a companion to Ortelius’s Theatrum Orbis Terrarum. New editions of the city atlas continued to be printed through 1617. Hogenberg\, one of the most prolific engravers of the time\, was joined by many other engravers in creating the Civitates. Braun edited the work and provided the descriptions of the cities on the verso of each plate. This exhibit contains 18 works from the Civitates\, including many from the Clark Library’s holdings. Also included are reproductions of large panoramas Amsterdam\, London\, and St. Petersburg that reflect the evolution of city mapping through the 17th and 18th centuries.

Wirtz’ silly animal works are what the artist is best known for\, and they take shape in his Goetzville\, Michigan studio.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Corridor\, Floor 2\n1500 E.

She immigrated to the U.S. in 1994\, and for the next 22 years\, New York became her home. In 2016\, she moved to Michigan to pursue an MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art.

Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/ UID:63992-16059348@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63992 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Africa,Archaeology,Exhibition,Museum LOCATION:Kelsey Museum of Archaeology CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190808T162032 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190918T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190918T180000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Other Crusoes\, Other Islands: Mapping a Complex Legacy DESCRIPTION:On the 300th anniversary of the publication of The Life and Surprising Adventures of Robinson Crusoe\, of York\, Mariner\, this exhibit interrogates the troubled legacy of Daniel Defoe’s seminal English novel. It also explores how creators have pushed back against the colonialist\, hyper-masculine\, and racist ethos of the text by using the castaway narrative to explore self-sufficiency\, otherness\, and the role of gendered and racialized ideas in constructing the self.\n\nThis novel of shipwreck\, survival\, and rescue has become a cultural touchstone. Today\, many people who haven’t read the novel still feel familiar with key plot elements\, Robinson Crusoe\, and Friday. Yet\, there is less familiarity with how both the original text and many of the adaptations of Robinson Crusoe have fed into and reinforced narratives of imperialism and racism. Drawing on the Hubbard Collection of Imaginary Voyages - one of the world’s most comprehensive collections of editions\, translations\, adaptations\, and spin-offs of Robinson Crusoe - Other Crusoes\, Other Islands seeks to understand how readers and writers have engaged with the story since its initial publication in 1719.\n\nContent Advisory: Please be aware that some items in this exhibit feature racist imagery and potentially painful content. Although Robinson Crusoe is often treated as children’s literature and this exhibit includes children’s books and board games\, it is not an exhibit geared towards children and reflects the significant shifts over time in ideas about what is appropriate for children.

During her Masters program in 1973\, she started teaching at the Residential College in the First Year Seminar and French programs.

She participated in an interdisciplinary group composed of Residential College humanities and fine arts faculty who together constructed the Arts and Ideas in the Humanities concentration. Cindy's recent course offerings have included critical approaches to the literature and visual arts of classic modernism\, postmodernism\, Shakespeare and Rome\, the heritage of Greece\, the psychoanalytic interpretation of the arts\, and many others.

Using woodcut\, painting on canvas\, and mixed media\, Linda Hyong\, Sung Eun Hong\, and Seong Ok Lee explore the world of flowers\, gardens\, and nature in vivid works that slow time to a fleeting present moment.\n\nLinda Hyong is a University of Michigan alumna and former teaching assistant in the U-M Stamps School of Art & Design. She draws her inspiration from Claude Monet’s water lily garden in France to create her own modern interpretation of impressionism. Seong Ok Lee is inspired by flowers\, which she believes are the most beautiful forms in nature. In her dream-like\, nearly abstract paintings\, Sung Eun Hong communicates her vision of what she calls “pure dreams and fantasy.”\n\nExhibit runs September 14 through November 15\, 2019 at the\n\nUniversity of Michigan Matthaei Botanical Gardens\, 1800 N.

During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies UID:63803-15884064@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63803 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Museum,Politics,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

In place of visible objects\, each plinth is equipped with a speaker from which we hear the word “thing” sung—edited out of and isolated from a range of pop songs. The result is an amusing and thoughtful exploration of language\, meaning\, and the conventions of museum presentation and spectatorship.\n \nThe installation\, like much of Berlin-based artist Ceal Floyer’s art\, is characteristically austere\, but its visual simplicity masks a more complicated message—often a wry cerebral twist the artist creates through language-based symbols and aesthetic devices. Floyer’s work is rooted in conceptual art\, in which the idea\, delivered through words or acts that undercut or supersede formal qualities\, is the essence of the artwork.\n\nLead support  for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan College of Engineering and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Penny W.

When considering asymptotic particles of scattering processes\, such dressed particle states reduce to the infrared-finite states of Faddeev and Kulish. In quantum field theories in flat spacetime\, the dressings of asymptotic states are known to carry a definite leading soft charge of the asymptotic symmetry\, which can be interpreted as soft hair at infinity. Some recent attempts to extend this to subleading order will be briefly mentioned. We explore how this analysis can be extended to curved spacetimes with boundary\, in particular\, the Rindler and Schwarzschild spacetimes. More specifically\, we will show that infalling dressed matter on the future Rindler and Schwarzschild horizons implant soft horizon hair.

Although many White people have anti-racist attitudes and endorse the belief that White people are culpable for racism\, their identities can still be threatened when they encounter information about racism. Although decades of research indicate that people strongly prefer information that affirms their prior attitudes\, it is less clear what happens when the information also threatens their identity. This talk will explore the impact of identity threats in motivated information selection among White Americans. I will present new data suggesting that identity threats\, and not just attitudes\, motivate Whites to avoid information about racism. I posit that testing the attitudinal and identity-based motivations in tandem helps to advance theory on attitudes and intergroup processes and shed light on contemporary racial-political divides.

Clements Library at the University of Michigan mounted an exhibition of primary sources on murder in America from the 1670s to 1900. Clements Director J. Kevin Graffagnino’s PowerPoint presentation of murder books\, pamphlets\, serials\, prints\, photographs\, and ephemera illustrates the ways our ancestors dealt with murder as vehicle for moral instruction\, basis for social attitudes and legal policy\, and source of guilty-pleasure titillation. Given the enduring popularity of crime and punishment for America readers\, collectors\, and researchers\, this lecture for those 50 and over should appeal to scholarly and popular audiences alike. Instructor J. Kevin Graffagnino has been Director of the University of Michigan’s William L. Clements Library since 2008 and will be retiring after 11 years at the end of December.

These devices have been designed to operate at a variety of scales in to produce short (<100 ns) pulses of ions\, X-rays\, or neutrons. LLNL has recently constructed and brought into operation a new device\, the MJOLNIR (MegaJouLe Neutron Imaging Radiography) DPF which is designed for radiography and high yield operations. This device has been commissioned over the last year and has achieved neutron yields up to 9x10^11 neutrons/pulse at 2.2 MA pinch current while operating at up to 1 MJ of stored energy. MJOLNIR is equipped with a wide range of diagnostics\, including activation foils\, neutron time of flight detectors\, a fast framing camera\, optical light gates\, and a time-gated neutron and x-ray imager. LLNL also runs unique particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations of DPF in the Chicago code\, and has been able to gain significant insight into the physical factors that influence neutron yield. To that end\, MJOLNIR is one of the first DPFs whose design and continual upgrades are heavily influenced by predictive modeling. In this presentation\, we will describe insights from modeling\, device operation\, and recent results. Preliminary x-ray and neutron images will also be presented.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nDr. Andrea Schmidt is group leader of the Plasma Engineering Group and Associate Program Lead for Pulsed Power Fusion Plasmas at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL). She received her Ph.D. in Physics from MIT and her BS in Physics from the U. of California/Berkeley. She joined LLNL as a postdoctoral researcher in 2011 and joined the staff in 2013. As a postdoc\, Schmidt was involved in electrical grid research\, and modeling the dense plasma focus (DPF) device. She performed the first kinetic modeling of a DPF\, demonstrating that a particle approach was needed to capture beam formation and neutron yield. She is now leading several projects in DPF research including the development of a large MJ-class DPF experiment built for flash neutron radiography. Schmidt also led modeling and experimental efforts for magnetron sputtering and was part of a team investigating a shear-flow-stabilized z-pinch configuration for controlled fusion.

At Promontory Summit\, Utah on May 10\, 1869\, the Central Pacific and Union Pacific Railroad lines celebrated the spanning of the country with iron. Hailed ever since as a signal development in post-Civil War America\, the story of the transcontinental is often romanticized and celebrated as a national triumph. Relegated to the margins or even erased altogether from many accounts\, Chinese railroad workers were actually central to the effort. Chang’s historical recovery returns these workers to the center of the narrative. His lecture will consider historiography\, the methodological challenge of writing history without traditional documentation\, and the place of this history in the rise of modern America.\n\n\nGordon H. Chang is professor of history\, Olive H. Palmer Professor in the Humanities\, and the Senior Associate Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education at Stanford University. He studies the histories of America-China relations\, U.S. diplomacy\, and Asian American history. Among his publications are Friends and Enemies: The United States\, China\, and the Soviet Union\, 1948-1972\; Morning Glory\, Evening Shadow: Yamato Ichihashi and His Internment Writing\, 1942-1945\; Asian Americans and Politics: Perspectives\, Experiences\, Prospects\; editor with Judy Yung and H.M Lai\, Chinese American Voices: From the Gold Rush to the Present\; editor with Mark Johnson and Paul Karlstrom\, Asian American Art: A History\, 1850-1970\; and Fateful Ties: A History of America’s Preoccupation with China. He has been a Guggenheim and ACLS Fellow.\n\nHe currently co-directs the Chinese Railroad Workers in North America Project at Stanford and has published two books this year: The Chinese and the Iron Road: Building the Transcontinental (editor with Shelley Fisher Fishkin) and Ghosts of Gold Mountain: The Epic Story of the Chinese Who Built the Transcontinental.

CMB measurements continue to improve according to a Moore’s law under which the mapping speed of experiments improves by an order of magnitude roughly every five years. This rapid progression in our ability to measure the CMB has translated into a series of scientific advances including showing our universe to be spatially flat\, constraining inflationary and alternative theories of the primordial universe\, and providing a cornerstone for our precision knowledge of the Lambda-CDM model. Observations with the current generation of experiments\, including Advanced ACTPol\, will soon produce improved cosmological constraints. Building on this work\, in the coming decade Simons Observatory and ultimately CMB-S4 will: pass critical thresholds in constraints on inflation and light relativistic species\; provide improved measurements of dark energy\, dark matter\, neutrino masses\, and a variety of astrophysical phenomena\; and enable searches for new surprises. \n\nIn this talk I present the design and status of measurements with Advanced ACTPol and how we are building on this work to realize the next generations of experiments including Simons Observatory and CMB-S4. I will highlight the technological advances that underlie the rapid progress in measurements including: polarization sensitive detectors which simultaneously observe in multiple colors\; metamaterial antireflection coated lenses and polarization modulators\; and overall advances in experimental design. I will present preliminary new results from ACTPol and conclude with science forecasts for the coming decade.\n UID:65279-16565498@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/65279 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:West Hall - 340 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190909T103251 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190918T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190918T170000 SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:Fall Birthday Celebrations DESCRIPTION:Blow the horn!

Michigan Press\, 2019) chronicles feminist and artist Carol Jacobsen’s deep commitment to the causes of justice and human rights. Jacobsen’s tireless work with and for women prisoners is charted in this rich assemblage of images and texts that reveal the collective strategies she and the prisoners have employed to receive justice. The book gives evidence that women’s lawbreaking is often an effort to survive gender-based violence. The faces\, letters\, and testimonies of dozens of incarcerated women with whom Jacobsen has worked present a visceral yet politicized chorus of voices against the criminal-legal systems that fail us all. Their voices are joined by those of leading feminist scholars in essays that illuminate the arduous methods of dissent that Jacobsen and the others have employed to win freedom for more than a dozen women sentenced to life imprisonment\, and to free many more from torturous prison conditions.\n\nThis conversation will focus a critical lens on an American criminal-legal regime that imparts racist\, gendered\, and classist modes of punishment to women lawbreakers.\n\nBook sales provided by University of Michigan Press.

A significant demographic shift has been the recent increase in the number of speakers of Eastern Armenian\, resulting in higher enrollments of Eastern Armenian students in day schools. In this context\, the Eastern Armenian student faces a unique situation\, as Western Armenian functions as the primary language of instruction for the Armenian curriculum in Los Angeles Armenian schools. \n \nThis presentation examines the experience of a growing number of heritage language speakers\, for whom the home variant of the heritage language differs from the standard taught at school. The goal is to highlight the dynamic nature of a pluricentric language in a diasporic context. Unique instructional problems emerge for heritage speakers who have partially or fully acquired one variant of a language but find themselves in a classroom where another standard is taught. To address the difficulties\, the process of second dialect acquisition (SDA)\, which involves the learning of a new variety of the same language\, has to be fully understood. After surveying the growing body of work on SDA\, this presentation will apply the findings to Armenian in a diasporic context and make concrete recommendations. Most importantly\, Dr. Karapetian will argue that the natural sociolinguistic variation in the pluricentric manifestation of Armenian should not be seen as a problem but as a resource.\n\nDr. Karapetian’s talk is part of an effort by the Society for Armenian Studies to open a discussion on Western Armenian as highlighted by its latest publication - \"Western Armenian in the 21 st Century: Challenges and New Approaches\" (Fresno\, CA: The Press at Fresno State\, 2018) edited by Bedross Der Matossian and Barlow Der Mugrdechian. \n \nDr. Shushan Karapetian is Deputy Director of the Institute of Armenian Studies at the University of Southern California. She received a PhD in Near Eastern Languages and Cultures from UCLA in 2014\, where she has taught Armenian Studies courses over the past nine years. Her dissertation\, “‘How Do I Teach My Kids My Broken Armenian?’: A Study of Eastern Armenian Heritage Language Speakers in Los Angeles” received the Society for Armenian Studies Distinguished Dissertation Award in 2015. Her research interests focus on heritage languages and speakers and particularly on the case of Armenian heritage speakers in the Los Angeles community\, on which she has presented and lectured widely. In 2018\, she was the recipient of the Russ Campbell Young Scholar Award at the Third International Conference on Heritage/Community Languages in recognition for outstanding scholarship in heritage language research. \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.

The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

First published in 1572 by Georg Braun (1541-1622) and Frans Hogenberg (1535-1590)\, Civitates was first intended as a companion to Ortelius’s Theatrum Orbis Terrarum. New editions of the city atlas continued to be printed through 1617. Hogenberg\, one of the most prolific engravers of the time\, was joined by many other engravers in creating the Civitates.

Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/ UID:63992-16059349@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63992 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Africa,Archaeology,Exhibition,Museum LOCATION:Kelsey Museum of Archaeology CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190808T162032 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190919T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190919T180000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Other Crusoes\, Other Islands: Mapping a Complex Legacy DESCRIPTION:On the 300th anniversary of the publication of The Life and Surprising Adventures of Robinson Crusoe\, of York\, Mariner\, this exhibit interrogates the troubled legacy of Daniel Defoe’s seminal English novel. It also explores how creators have pushed back against the colonialist\, hyper-masculine\, and racist ethos of the text by using the castaway narrative to explore self-sufficiency\, otherness\, and the role of gendered and racialized ideas in constructing the self.\n\nThis novel of shipwreck\, survival\, and rescue has become a cultural touchstone. Today\, many people who haven’t read the novel still feel familiar with key plot elements\, Robinson Crusoe\, and Friday. Yet\, there is less familiarity with how both the original text and many of the adaptations of Robinson Crusoe have fed into and reinforced narratives of imperialism and racism. Drawing on the Hubbard Collection of Imaginary Voyages - one of the world’s most comprehensive collections of editions\, translations\, adaptations\, and spin-offs of Robinson Crusoe - Other Crusoes\, Other Islands seeks to understand how readers and writers have engaged with the story since its initial publication in 1719.\n\nContent Advisory: Please be aware that some items in this exhibit feature racist imagery and potentially painful content. Although Robinson Crusoe is often treated as children’s literature and this exhibit includes children’s books and board games\, it is not an exhibit geared towards children and reflects the significant shifts over time in ideas about what is appropriate for children.

The exhibition also includes nearly 100 I.D. photos of migrant children from a Texas holding center. Buentello took the photos in 2014 while working for an intake agency.\n\n\"Focusing on images from the US media sources that exposed the violence of migrants’ dehumanization\, vulnerability\, fear\, loss\, and criminalization\, the paintings document the embodiment of state-authorized brutality and erasures of personhood.\" -Ruth Leonela Buentello\n\nThis project is funded by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.
