Olivia Rivera graduated from LSA in 2018 with High Honors and Distinction with a major in Neuroscience. She knew she wanted to become a psychiatrist with a public health scope\, so she set off on a trio of grad degrees: Master of Law (Penn\, ‘19)\, Master of Public Health\, (Harvard ‘22)\, and her MD (Penn ‘23). She is now a first-year resident psychiatrist at Brigham & Women's Hospital/Harvard Medical School. She is passionate about ending the mass incarceration crisis\, and her extensive educational background is in program evaluation and policy recommendations. When she's not in the hospital training to be a correctional psychiatrist\, she can be found in various tea shops or cafes in Boston\, searching for the perfect Earl Grey.\n\nJoin Livia in this virtual session to ask her any and all questions you may have about pursuing an MD and her other degrees. She’s especially excited to connect with BIPOC students to talk through her experience navigating the many experiences in her medical education as a black woman\, to help prepare the next generation of med students for the challenges and accomplishments that await them. \n\nYou should attend this session if you are:\n- An undergraduate U-M LSA student \n- Thinking about applying to medical school after you graduate from LSA\n- Curious how a successful BIPOC alumna navigated various identity-related challenges in grad programs\n- Interested in career paths within healthcare and medicine\, and/or with a public health mission\n\nWhat you’ll gain by attending:\n- Make a valuable connection with a successful LSA alum ready to help you navigate the medical school application process\n- Get ideas for how to build a career in whatever avenue of medicine you’re thinking about\n- Gain tips for presenting yourself in the competitive grad school environment\n\nRSVP now to be a part of the conversation. The link to join this Alum Connection will be emailed to you after you RSVP.\n\nThis event is co-sponsored by the Residential College.\n\nThe LSA Opportunity Hub aims to deliver inclusive and accessible experiences and welcomes all LSA students to participate.

In particular\, the native ECM is composed of hierarchically structured biopolymers with dynamic properties that change over time. Synthetic ECMs\, however\, are typically formed from disordered polymers and chemistries that lead to time-invariant properties. Toward this end\, we have developed bioinspired strategies to incorporate hierarchical order and dynamic behavior into synthetic hydrogels. We will discuss the chemical and physical mechanisms that lead to multiscale control in these materials\, as well as their application toward matrices for human mesenchymal stromal cell culture.\nBio:\nDr. Adrianne Rosales is an Assistant Professor of Chemical Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin. She is a co-lead of the Interdisciplinary Research Group “Fuel-Driven Pluripotent Materials” in UT Austin’s Materials Research Science and Engineering Center. She received her B.S. in Chemical Engineering from UT Austin and obtained her Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from UC Berkeley. After completing her Ph.D. in 2013\, she trained at the University of Colorado Boulder as an NIH NRSA post-doctoral fellow. Adrianne's group at UT Austin focuses on the development of bioinspired polymeric materials to model cellular microenvironments and engineer therapeutic technologies. This work has received emerging investigator recognitions from the Burroughs Wellcome Fund\, the NIH\, the NSF\, and the American Chemical Society Polymeric Materials: Science and Engineering Division.\n\nZoom:\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/99085426766 UID:114383-21832817@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114383 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:biomedical,biomedical engineering,Biotechnology,bme,engineer,engineering,Michigan Engineering LOCATION:Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Building - 1311 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240123T080713 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231026T163000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231026T210000 SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:Breakfast for Dinner DESCRIPTION:Come join us for everyone's favorite dinner party!

Luger combines critical cultural analysis with dedication and respect for the diverse materials\, environments\, and communities he engages while provoking diverse audiences to engage with Indigenous peoples and values apart from the lens of colonial social structuring.\nCo-commissioned by UMMA and Monument Lab\, the centerpiece of Luger’s newest project You’re Welcome resides on the exterior of UMMA’s building and responds to the question: “How do we remember on this campus?” Luger’s work asks the campus and community to reconsider the memories molded into the Museum’s stone — the perspectives that shaped those traditions and the stories that remain unseen in our facade. This artistic interrogation dissects colonialist norms of monument-making\, explores the roles of buildings in upholding dominant cultural narratives\, and offers an approach to memorials that centers Indigenous perspectives and collaboration to tell fuller stories and histories. \nBorn on the Standing Rock Reservation in North Dakota\, New Mexico-based artist Cannupa Hanska Luger is an enrolled member of the Three Affiliated Tribes of Fort Berthold and is of Mandan\, Hidatsa\, Arikara and Lakota heritage. Luger is a 2022 Guggenheim Fellow\, a recipient of a 2021 United States Artists Fellowship Award for Craft and was named a 2021 GRIST Fixer. He is a 2020 Creative Capital Fellow\, a 2020 Smithsonian Artist Research Fellow\, and the recipient of the Museum of Arts and Design’s 2018 inaugural Burke Prize\, among others. Luger has exhibited nationally and internationally including at The Metropolitan Museum of Art\, Gardiner Museum\, Kunsthal KAdE\, Washington Project for the Arts\, Art Mûr\, Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art and the National Center for Civil and Human Rights. \nLuger will be joined in conversation with Monument Lab co-founder Paul M.

Her research interests center around connectivity\, migration\, and colonization in the Mediterranean\, particularly southern Italy. The description of her talk is as follows:\n\nIn antiquity\, the Adriatic Sea functioned as a seam between vast regions of the Mediterranean and Europe\, bridging the long\, culturally diverse shorelines of the Balkans and the Italian peninsula. It was also one of the more direct sea routes from anywhere in the Mediterranean to the heart of central Europe and\, via the latter’s rivers\, the Northern and Baltic Seas. These long-distance routes moved amber\, and at specific times copper\, along the Adriatic coasts and into the Mediterranean. At the same time\, shorter-distance\, cross-Adriatic connections have been documented from the Neolithic onwards. Yet while diachronic shifts in the shape and intensity of these connections are obvious\, our understanding of the local social processes shaping Adriatic connectivity through time is still coarse. To tackle this question\, this summer I conducted preliminary research in two river valleys situated on the opposite shores of the Adriatic (Southern Italy and Albania) with the aim of setting up a long-term collaborative project. This talk will provide a general introduction and very preliminary report of this summer’s activities\, along with a discussion of future research perspectives within the framework of Mediterranean archaeology studies.\n\nThis lecture will take place in the Classics Library (2175 Angell Hall). Light refreshments and snacks will be provided.

Three extraordinary voices with one singular vision: The Wailin' Jennys continue to evolve into far more than the melodious sum of their individual talents years after blowing in on a fresh acoustic breeze from Canada's midwestern heartland. Canadians Nicky Mehta\, and Ruth Moody and New Yorker Heather Masse were all well-established talents individually\, and their collaboration is an example of how exciting it can be when performers with distinct outlooks find ways of working together. Each member of the trio contributes distinctive original songs to the mix\, which ranges from folk-rock to Celtic to traditional song. This trio has won fans for its incredible harmonies at venues ranging from \"A Prairie Home Companion\" (multiple times) to the small-town parks and festivals in Manitoba that gave them their start.\n\n\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/3873/3874 for more detail.

It centers on the titular “manga map”\, a rare Japanese travel map of Japan (ca. 1934) that is densely packed with manga illustrations detailing local folklore\, history\, architecture\, flora/fauna\, and more. The exhibit also includes works of Japanese art and cartography in order to consider the dichotomy between artistry and geographic depiction\, and how that plays with the definition of a “map.”\n\nAlongside the exhibit\, the manga map is also part of a new digital humanities preservation project at the library using the online crowd-sourcing platform Zooniverse\, where the map will be transcribed/translated and made into a fully interactive digital map. More information is available at the exhibit.\n\nBoth the exhibit and the Zooniverse project were created as a summer internship capstone project by Joel Liesenberg\, a dual-degree master’s student in International and Regional Studies focusing in Japanese studies and the School of Information focusing in digital curation.

Death threats and assassinations\, politically motivated sectarian violence\, rampant corruption\, and de-Ba’athification policies only further destabilized an educational system already heaving under the devastation of wars\, authoritarian regimes\, and harsh economic sanctions.\n\nThis exhibit invites solidarity with the academics targeted\, but also deeper connection with their experiences and the richness of Iraqi academic life through their written legacies and the testimonies of surviving academics\, many of whom were driven into exile.\n\nThis exhibit in the north lobby is available during Hatcher Library hours (https://myumi.ch/p75dd).\n\nA companion online exhibit\, Tracing Iraqi Artists: From Shadow to Light (https://myumi.ch/n7xre)\, explores modern Iraqi struggle and resistance through contemporary visual art and connection to Iraqi artists and educators. The curators of the online exhibit\, 2023 Michigan Library Scholars Zainab Hakim and Serena Safawi\, hope to center surviving Iraqi artists as they explore their national and artistic identities and respond to the cycles of violence caused by the Iran-Iraq war\, sanctions\, and occupation.

In the years immediately preceding the dam’s construction\, the American University in Cairo directed a large-scale project of salvage anthropology with funding from the Ford Foundation. \n\nThis endeavor yielded hundreds of photographs of al-nuba al-qadima or “Old Nubia” the term affectionately used by community members. Over the past sixty years\, Nubians have used these images to cultivate a collective memory of a lost homeland. From Aswan to Alexandria and beyond\, community members are salvaging their own stories from this anthropological archive\, reshaping it as a sentimental terrain of solidarity across time\, space\, and circumstance. \n\nThis selection of photographs includes persons\, places\, and practices as well as glimpses of the presence of the photographer and researchers. Both online and offline\, Egyptian Nubians continue to share and re-mediate these photos as they recall their historical displacement and revitalize their heritage for future generations.\n\nThe exhibit is curated by Yasmin Moll\, assistant professor of anthropology\, and coordinated by Nesrien Hamid\, doctoral student in anthropology\, with funding from the University of Michigan's Humanities Collaboratory.\n\nFor a deeper dive\, visit the companion exhibit\, Narrating Nubia\, at the Duderstadt Center on North Campus. It delves into the archaeological\, anthropological\, and community narratives of both ancient and modern-day Nubia spanning Egypt and Sudan.

Guardian Passage: The Power of Ukrainian Cultural Memory in the Face of War DESCRIPTION:*Presented in association with UMS*.\n\nIn Guardian Passage\, artists Irina Bondarenko and Katya Lisova employ the tools and imagery of traditional Ukrainian art forms to face down the existential threat brought about by Russia’s war on Ukraine. Bondarenko’s installation forms a causeway for visitors to encounter Ukrainian poetry and the art form of motanka dolls in a newly imagined configuration. Motanka are guardian symbols assembled from the clothes of deceased ancestors. Bondarenko’s ceramics illustrate motanka in situations responding to the war\; each graphic is accompanied by a poem or a song. These ceramics act as lifeboats\, which ferry the Ukrainian resistance through the flood waters of destruction. Lisova’s series of tapestries explore the power of cultural memory to grow in times of war. Traditional embroidery explodes on the surface of photo collage\, where images of the past and present collide on a single surface. Like a lifeline\, red thread connects these projects\, weaving through clay and fabric\, bringing tradition to bear on new significances and the cultural will to survive. This exhibition is part of the LSA theme semester on “Arts and Resistance.”\n\nIrina Bondarenko is an emerging ceramic artist\, a native of Ukraine\, and a biostatistician at the University of Michigan. Irina has been with the University of Michigan Biostatistics Department for more than 20 years. and published over 50 peer-reviewed articles. Along with her career at the School of Public Health\, for the last 10 years Irina has been pursuing her interest in ceramics. Her work was featured in over a dozen national shows\, the 24th San Angelo National Ceramic Competition\, and the “Strictly Functional Pottery National Show” in 2021 and 2022\, and\, most recently\, the Regional Biennial Juried Sculpture Exhibition at Marshall Fredericks Sculpture Museum.\n\nArtist website: https://www.ibondceramics.com/\n\nKatya Lisova is an artist\, designer\, and art historian. Born in Kyiv\, she is a graduate of the Institute of Decorative and Applied Arts and Design named after Mykhailo Boichuk (2009) and the National Academy of Cultural and Artistic Leaders (2018). Since 2019 she has been teaching at the Kyiv State Academy of Decorative and Applied Arts and Design named after Mykhailo Boichuk. Her work is in the field of artistic textiles and digital graphics.

Tremel\, who teaches ceramics at the Penny W Stamps School of Art and Design\, describes her work in the following way:\n\n“My pots are made with a wooden paddle and round stone. They are slowly raised by beating\, turning\, and drying the clay repeatedly until the walls are thinly stretched and the form is filled with life. I pierce the fragile\, unfired walls of the vessel with a tapered tool and then painstakingly carve the holes with a thin blade. The piercings give visual access to the interior of the form and create a tension with the fragility of the ceramic material. When the pot is illuminated the light fills the vessel and physically embodies the energy that it contains. The piercings allow this energy to flow beyond the walls of the form and into the surrounding space. The soft patterns of light are an exhalation\, filling the dark room with a sense of quiet repose. I invite you to stop and take a breath.”\n\nThe public is invited to an opening reception for the artist on October 20\, from 4-6 pm\, and the public is invited.

Throughout the European Renaissance (1300-1700)\, many book illustrations were exclusively ornamental\, while others focused on enhancing the meaning of the text. However\, as the pages on display attest\, all these illustrations share a common ground: they reveal the aesthetic and intellectual fashions first proposed by Italian artists of the 1400s\, who were strongly committed to the recovery of the past of classical antiquity.\n\nThe word “Illumination\,” from the Latin illuminare\, “to enlighten or to illuminate\,” refers to the embellishment of a manuscript or early printed book with luminous colors\, notably gold and silver. This illumination was prominent in the frontispiece\, or first page of text\, which included the decoration of its borders and initial letter\, and even miniatures\, that is\, scenes with an independent narrative. With the introduction of movable-type printing in 1454\, these illuminations would be gradually replaced by woodcuts\, which were printed from a woodblock that had been cut by knife along the grain of the wood.\n\nAvailable during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://myumi.ch/2m7d4).\n\nJoin us on September 13 for a talk by Pablo Alvarez\, curator of the exhibit.

DESCRIPTION:Come explore the intricate and interlocking world of Sarah Buckius’ “!!!techn010ffspring!!!” where feminist art meets science and the history of invention. On view at Lane Hall as part of U-M Arts Initiative’s themed semester on Arts & Resistance\, “!!!techn010ffspring!!!” critiques the patriarchal paradigms of the STEM field by highlighting the history of women inventors. This exhibition brings conceptual invention in fine art and performance to the disciplines of information technology\, robotics\, and engineering. Buckius creates “technoffsprings”: complex machines that weave together the history of inventions related to the gendered labor of women\, especially regarding women’s social roles as caregivers and subjects of care themselves. \nTrained as an engineer and an artist\, Buckius’ machines are intentionally complex\, layered\, and illogical or absurdly logical. In the nature of women’s caregiving\, they teeter between order and chaos. Her “digital tinkerings” tell epic tales of motherhood\, technology\, female bodies\, and commerce—both personal and externalized through women’s inventions and early forays that bridged caregiving and commerce. Buckius' work proposes improvisation as a form of absurdist resistance to\, and alternative to\, patriarchal\, capitalist\, production-based\, and seemingly rational\, useful\, logical systems. \n“!!!techn010ffspring!!!” is open for viewing M-F\, 9am-4pm or by appointment. University of Michigan instructors can email LaneHallExhibits@umich.edu to request a group tour or schedule a class visit.\nThis project was made possible by a grant from the Arts Initiative at the University of Michigan and co-sponsored by U-M’s Department of Women’s and Gender Studies and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender with support from the Santa Cruz County Arts Council.

Located in the former Homestake gold mine in Lead\, South Dakota\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) houses experiments that give us a better understanding of the universe. The location—deep underground—provides a near-perfect environment for experiments that need to escape the constant bombardment of cosmic radiation\, which can interfere with the detection of rare physics events. Built in collaboration with the University of Michigan\, the LUX-Zeplin is the world’s most sensitive dark matter experiment. SURF also hosts experiments in biology\, geology and engineering.\n\nGina Gibson is an internationally exhibiting artist and professor of Graphic Design at Black Hills State University. In 2019\, Gibson became the first artist in residence at the Sanford Underground Research Facility. Gibson's work celebrates the search deep below the surface for beauty in the old and new\, the light and dark\, and the known and unknown.\n\nUN/EARTH was developed in collaboration with the U-M Department of Physics\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility and Black Hills State University.

A Robust Bounds Approach DESCRIPTION:This study provides a structural analysis of detailed\, alternating-offer bargaining data from eBay\, deriving bounds on buyers and sellers private value distributions using a range of assump- tions on behavior. These assumptions range from very weak (assuming only that acceptance and rejection decisions are rational) to less weak (e.g.\, assuming that bargaining offers are weakly increasing in players’ private values). We estimate the bounds and show what they imply for consumer negotiation behavior in theory and practice. For the median product\, bargaining ends in impasses in 43% of negotiations even when the buyer values the good more than the seller.\n\n\nThis talk is presented by the Applied Microeconomics/Industrial Organization Seminar\, sponsored by the Department of Economics with generous gifts given through the Jean Coven Speakers Fund in Economics and the Economics Strategic Fund.

While the confidential data remains accessible only to a limited number of government analysts and researchers\, SOI provides an accessible public use file for external researchers and data practitioners. However\, safeguarding this public use file has grown increasingly difficult to protect through traditional statistical data privacy methods\, as the vast amount of personal information available in public and private databases combined with enormous computational power create unprecedented privacy risks.\n\nThis presentation will cover the collaborative efforts of SOI and researchers at the Urban Institute\, who are actively developing a solution: the creation of synthetic data that represent the statistical properties of the administrative data without revealing any individual taxpayer information. Additionally\, Urban is building a prototype validation server that empowers researchers to indirectly conduct statistical analyses on administrative tax data. Researchers can accomplish this by evaluating their analyses using synthetic data and subsequently submitting them to the validation server. The server then produces a modified output with added noise\, all the while maintaining the confidentiality of taxpayer information. In essence\, this talk will address the lessons learned\, best practices\, and challenges encountered in the process of safely expanding access to administrative tax data.\n\nhttps://clairemckaybowen.com/ UID:109433-21822022@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/109433 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:seminar LOCATION:West Hall - 340 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230830T211021 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231027T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231027T143000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Story Lab Fall Retreats DESCRIPTION:ABOUT\nStory Lab develops executive-level presence and communication skills through storytelling workshops and events.

The exhibition examines the Amistad Dam in Del Rio\, the largest dam in Rio Grande that is jointly managed by the United States and Mexico and other contested sites in the region to unravel layered histories\, connections\, and tensions present in West Texas through film\, sculpture\, installation\, collage\, and drawing. \nThe experimental documentary film Teaching of the Hands is the center point of the exhibition - as it combines oral histories\, reenactments\, and archival footage to narrate a complex history of colonization\, migration\, and ecological precarity\, Told from the perspective of Juan Mancias\, Chairman of the Carrizo Comecrudo Tribe of Texas\, scenes from the present day are woven together with those from 4\,000 years in the past to investigate the transformation of Somi Se’k* by way of industry\, infrastructure\, and private property. \nEmerging from the research to create the film\, the exhibition includes an immersive installation of surveying flags and tools\, series of drawings and collages\, and a collection of original watercolors from the 1930s by artists and amateur archaeologists Forrest and Lula Kirkland that depict the ancient rock art of the Lower Pecos\,that expand on concepts in The Teachings of the Hands. The watercolors\, rarely seen plein air paintings\, are on loan from the Texas Archaeological Research Laboratory at the University of Texas\, and document the original forms and vibrant colors of murals that were still visible in the 1930s before flooding\, erosion\, and human interaction damaged or destroyed them. This exhibition has been shown in various iterations at Ballroom Marfa\, the University of Texas at Austin\, the Rubin Center for the Visual Arts\, the Museum of Modern Art in New York and University of California\, Santa Barbara\, and will be shown in Michigan and the midwest for the first time. The Blessings of the Mystery brings together an expansive body of work that sheds light on vital histories\, living memories and Indigenous knowledge-systems embedded within the land well before the colonial boundaries between Mexico and the US were established - advocating for environmental justice and recognition of Indigenous rights and cosmologies.

Yet the practice of writing hugely exceeds the boundaries of disciplinary scholarship. How do various modes and genres of writing inflect the ways in which we are able to think historically and imagine the past? What kinds of meaning can various forms of writing engender when it comes to understanding history? As the profession embraces writing for public audiences\, what genres of writing constitute history? In this panel\, scholars from a variety of disciplines consider alterities of history\, from the ancient Mediterranean to modern West Africa and Southeast Asia. Each panelist will consider the ways in which history can be practiced and socially inscribed in ways that are alien to the academic discipline of history.\n\n\nChantal Croteau (PhD Candidate\, Anthropology\, University of Michigan)\nOrven Mallari (PhD Student\, Anthropology\, University of Michigan)\nCaroline Murphy-Racette (PhD Student\, Classical Studies\, University of Michigan)\nTalitha Tukura Pam (PhD Student\, Anthropology and History\, University of Michigan)\nHakem Al-Rustom (moderator\; Assistant Professor\, Alex Manoogian Professor of Modern Armenian History\, University of Michigan)\n\nThis event presented by the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

These membranes are composed of heterogeneous mixtures of lipids and proteins. Understanding and controlling biomolecular interactions that occur at membranes is challenging owing to the inherent ability of the membrane environment to functionally couple interactions between proteins and lipids. Nonetheless\, elucidating the interplay between proteins and lipids in biological membranes is important for a variety of applications\, such as pinpointing the mechanisms of disease\, discovering and delivering new drugs\, and developing functional biomaterials. Toward addressing these challenges\, our group uses engineering principles and fluorescence techniques to develop the tools\, approaches\, and ideas that will enable us to understand and control the protein-lipid interface.\n\nThis presentation will primarily focus on protein-lipid interactions that facilitate sensing and/or generation of membrane curvature\, which are processes that are essential to cellular physiology. Specifically\, the prevailing structure-function paradigm posits that protein function only arises from specific structural features. However\, our recent work has revealed that proteins lacking secondary structure – Intrinsically Disordered Proteins (IDPs) – can be potent sensors and generators of membrane curvature. The mechanisms for this functional behavior arises from the polyampholytic nature of these unfolded\, amino acid chains. Interestingly\, IDPs comprise ~40% of the human proteome but only a handful of IDPs have been examined in the context of protein-lipid interactions. Therefore\, this paradoxical finding represents a significant\, yet unexplored frontier in the field of membrane remodeling. Our most recent findings highlight an example of this disordered functionality in α-Synuclein\, which is a neuronal protein heavily implicated with the onset of Parkinson’s Disease. In addition to the investigation of IDPs at biological membranes\, this talk will briefly discuss some of our other research areas which include engineering strategies for mitigating lipid peroxidation in cellular membranes and the development of biomembrane-inspired technologies.

We have carefully curated a collection of audio samples\, including names of people who played a part in this significant chapter of history (abolitionists\, conductors\, and freedom seekers)\, as well as snippets of music that represent the URR. The installation aims to immerse the audience in the aural experience and engage them in interaction. \n\nJoin us anytime October 24-28\, 12-7pm. (Closed when raining.) \n\nThe installation involves utilizing a remote-controlled boat on the Music Pond. We developed a project workflow that treats the pond as a navigational 'map.' Within the pond\, we've designated specific locations such that when the remote control boat passes over them\, it activates one of the audio samples from our collection. This approach enables active audience participation\, with individuals taking control of the boat\, effectively making the audience an integral component of our installation. \n\nWe believe that leveraging the Music Pond\, a shared space for many within the SMTD community\, and to actively involve the audience will encourage people to explore and wonder about the installation. It presents a valuable opportunity for visitors to reflect on the Underground Railroad (maybe even plant a seed)\, take a moment to honor the individuals who played a role in this historical chapter\, and contemplate its significance.\n\n*This event is supported by the Arts & Resistance Theme Semester.* UID:114167-21832426@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114167 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Diversity,Free,In Person,Interdisciplinary,Media,Music,North Campus,Social Impact LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231006T145854 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231027T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231027T133000 SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:UNDER THE CAMPUS\, THE LAND - Advancing Native Student Activism DESCRIPTION:The effort to hold the University of Michigan to its responsibilities to Native people has been led by generations of Native American students.

When COVID took Tina’s life\, Taylor started ordering identical versions of their childhood games and toys on eBay. As she assembled these objects\, Taylor recalled a memory of climbing with Tina through the skeletal frameworks of unfinished houses in the 1970s. Late at night\, the girls would pick their way through floorless rooms and speculate about their future inhabitants. In this spirit of imaginative experimentation\, Taylor began taking apart her eBay acquisitions. Gathering\, breaking\, sawing\, splicing\, painting\, gluing\, layering\, and reassembling these toys became\, for her\, a way to probe the complicated nature of a lost friendship and to explore the multidimensional nature of grief. Ultimately\, Taylor built the framework of an unfinished house to evoke those she once explored with Tina. Taylor describes the house as a “container for grief.” \n\nSeptember 28 - October 27 \nOpening & Reception: September 28\, 1-3pm \nGalleryDAAS \n\nAbout this series of events: \nArt & Resistance Fall 2023 Theme Semester Programming \nSponsored by Arts Initiative\, UMMA\, American Culture\, Latina/o Studies\, the Department of Film\, Television and Media & the Museum Studies Program \nPresented by Charlotte Juergens\, 2nd year Ph.D. student in American Culture \nhttp://bit.ly/UMafterthought UID:112261-21828711@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/112261 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:american culture,Art,arts,arts at michigan,Arts Initiative,Culture,Department Of American Culture,Exhibition,Film,food,Free,Graduate,In Person,Latina/o Studies,Media,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Haven Hall - galleryDAAS CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231111T063142 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231027T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231027T140000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:International Students Career Series: How to Navigate Small Talk DESCRIPTION:\"In the United States\, many people participate in what is called \"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"small talk\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\, where you make conversation with strangers or acquaintances about non-controversial topics\, such as the weather\, sports\, or popular television shows. “Small talk” is one of the ways in American culture to chat about harmless topics in order to establish a connection and start to build a friendship.\n\nFor example\, while waiting for an interview\, in line at a M-Den\, or in an elevator on campus\, don’t be startled if a stranger says something to you like\, “Did you watch the Football Game last night?

This should be surprising\, given that what they do is inherently meaningful\, and that the content of their work is interesting and engages skills that most people find intrinsically rewarding to exercise. I argue that the discontent of so many professionals is likely due to their increasing proletarianization. As professionals become increasingly submerged as employees in large organizations\, often operated on a for-profit basis\, they suffer losses of professional autonomy. The organizations they work for operate on a managerial logic that disdains and suppresses the kinds of local\, personal\, practical knowledge that professionals cultivate and need to exercise to do their jobs well. I explore the contrasts between the kind of knowledge managers use to pursue organizational goals and the kind of knowledge professionals use in their everyday interactions with patients\, students\, and clients\, to explain the pervasive burnout of professionals in large organizations.

My talk will focus on how our highly competitive constraints from CMB lensing and CMB lensing cross-correlations can provide insight into the widely discussed “S8/sigma8 tension”. For this purpose I will briefly introduce the high fidelity CMB lensing reconstruction obtained by the ACT Collaboration and results from the analysis of the lensing auto-correlation. I will discuss new results from the cross-correlation between ACT CMB lensing and unWISE galaxies\, highlighting improvements to the analysis pipeline compared to previous work on the cross-correlation between Planck CMB lensing and unWISE by some of my collaborators (Krolewski et al. 2021). I will also show a reanalysis of Planck CMB lensing x unWISE and a joined analysis of the ACT and Planck CMB lensing cross-correlations with unWISE.

And because of that\, Spinoza thinks that they should be granted a large degree of freedom in the choice of the religion that they practice. He writes: “Opinions govern men in different ways: those which move one person to devotion\, move another to laughter and contempt.” So as long as they subscribe to the true religion\, that is\, as long as they love their neighbor as themselves\, and love God above all\, they should be allowed to worship as they please. However\, this right does not extend to groups of individuals. The Jewish community\, a collective individual can be said to have an ingenium as well. But even so\, Spinoza seems unwilling to extend this right to the Jewish community\, as opposed to individual Jews. In this talk I will explore why individuals get religious freedom for Spinoza\, but groups of individuals don’t.

The classification is based on the Kodaira dimension\, which is a numerical invariant that measures the \"complexity\" of a surface. In this talk\, we will discuss the Enriques-Kodaira classification in detail. We will begin by introducing the Kodaira Embedding Theorem which gives criteria for compact complex manifolds to be embedded into projective space. Then we will be discussing the Kodaira dimension and explaining its significance. We will then present the classification theorem itself\, and we will discuss the different types of surfaces that arise in the classification. In addition to the classification theorem\, we will also discuss some of the applications of the theorem to solve many important problems in algebraic geometry.

I will discuss the index in the strongly coupled theory\, as a functional integral in N=2 supergravity in asymptotically flat space. The saddle-points of this index are given by supersymmetric ​\"finite-temperature\" rotating geometries. I will discuss a new version of the attractor mechanism obeyed by these geometries: the scalar fields at the poles of the Euclidean horizon as well as the free energy of the black hole get attracted to values that depend only on the charges and are independent of the asymptotic moduli and temperature.

Two important climate systems are the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and East Asian Winter Monsoon (EAWM)\, which restrict surface ITF flow by driving low-salinity surface waters from the South China Sea into the western Indonesian Seas. Changes in South China Sea surface ocean pathways alter the magnitude of heat and freshwater carried by the ITF into the Indian Ocean\, with global consequences. However\, robust observational data only extends to the 1980s\, hindering examination of the balance of ENSO and the EAWM influences on SCS surface ocean pathways. In addition\, both ENSO and the EAWM reveal significant biennial variability that describes the poorly understood interactions of these systems. In this talk\, I use seasonally resolved coral proxy records of ocean circulation (Δ14C and Ba/Ca) from the western Indonesian Seas to investigate biennial variability in ENSO and EAWM strength and interactions. I show that from 1945-1960\, the EAWM strongly influences surface ocean pathways at biennial timescales. Following the 1960s\, shifts in EAWM mean state and the frequency of central Pacific El Niño events coincide with reductions in the magnitude of the biennial signal and reversals in EAWM and ENSO influences on circulation. These changes in the balance of ENSO and EAWM influences serve as indicators for future changes in global heat distribution and Indo-Pacific climate\, highlighting the importance of records that resolve EAWM-ENSO relationships beyond recent decades.

Ambitious performance and capability goals were set for each application that demanded end-to-end rethinking of traditional approaches. Through detailed performance analysis\, integration with optimized co-design frameworks and software libraries\, and the use of programming abstractions to manage data placement and kernel execution\, ECP applications recently demonstrated substantial capability and performance improvements on newly-available exascale machines. Despite significant diversity in the methods and algorithms underlying the ECP application portfolio\, several common themes emerged in how to best adapt computational workloads to heterogeneous architectures. In this talk\, an overview of best practices and lessons learned on effectively utilizing exascale hardware from the perspective of ECP applications will be presented. Strategies for developing portable\, performant code will be discussed and examples of reexamining traditional algorithms and methods will be described. Armed with this knowledge\, researchers can go beyond simply surviving an uncertain and turbulent computing future to instead leading a wave of scientific and computational innovation as traditional approaches are reexamined and new approaches adopted.\n\n\nBio: Dr. Erik Draeger is the Director of the High Performance Computing Innovation Center and RADIUSS project at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory as well as the Scientific Computing group leader at the Center for Applied Scientific Computing. He is also the Deputy Director of Application Development for the Exascale Computing Project\, jointly overseeing a portfolio of 22 Office of Science applications\, 4 NNSA applications\, and 7 co-design projects. Erik earned a Bachelor’s degree in Physics from the University of California\, Berkeley in 1995 and received a PhD in theoretical condensed matter physics from the University of Illinois\, Urbana-Champaign in 2001. He has over a decade of experience developing scientific applications to achieve maximum scalability and time to solution on next-generation architectures. He has been a finalist for the Gordon Bell Prize six times since 2005 and won the prize in 2006.

This focus has resulted in novel detection technologies being the foundation of the verification structure applied to past and future international agreements and treaties. Due to the continuous improvement and expansion of laser components and techniques\, the next generation of novel detection technologies will likely include optically based techniques. This talk will focus on the detection of nuclear materials using optical techniques and the future application of optical techniques in nuclear nonproliferation and security.\n\nBio\nDr. Kyle C.

BINDA LECTURE: TRISTAN AHTONE DESCRIPTION:Land Grab Universities: A legacy of profit and a just climate future\n\nThrough the Morrill Act of 1862\, nearly 11 million acres of Indigenous land became seed money for higher education. Land Grant Universities got their money through violence and Indigenous dispossession\, but they continue to make money from lands granted through other legislative actions. In this talk\, journalist and Land-Grab Universities co-author Tristan Ahtone will cover the history of land grant universities\, as well as current efforts to investigate how institutions profit from extractive industries on Indigenous territories.\n\nThis event is supported by the Guido A. Binda Exhibit and Lecture fund. For seven decades\, Guido Binda\, B.Arch.’31\, practiced architecture in Western Michigan\, specializing in school design. Guido\, with his wife Elizabeth\, created this fund to provide for an exhibit program and annual lecture by visiting professionals.\n\n\nUNDER THE CAMPUS\, THE LAND is a set of public conversations about the place of the U.S. university in Native and settler colonial histories and futures. Organized by Andrew Herscher\, these conversations will bring together Native and settler voices speaking to and about the university around four themes: reckoning with the settler university\, advancing Native student activism\, investigating university land\, and making amends to the land. These conversations will take place in conjunction with two exhibitions at the University of Michigan Museum of Art: Andrea Carlson’s Future Cache\, which commemorates the Cheboiganing Band of Ottawa and Chippewa people who were violently displaced from land in Northern Michigan now owned by the University of Michigan\, and Cannupa Hanska Luger’s You’re Welcome\, which explores histories and narratives of land occupied by the University of Michigan.\n\nGenerously supported by the Native American Studies (NAS) Program at the University of Michigan\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, Stamps School of Art & Design\, Stamps Gallery\, UMMA\, and the Department of the History of Art at the University of Michigan\n\n\nRELATED EVENTS & EXHIBITIONS\nOctober 26\, 5:30 p.m.: Cannupa Hanska Luger: How Do We Remember?

He serves as artistic director of México City’s Minería Symphony\, which was founded in the 1970s and is widely regarded as the leading musical institution in México — one that regularly supports and programs Mexican composers. Housed at the Academia de Música del Palacio de Minería\, the name honors the period from the 18th century when mining was one of the region’s most important economic activities.\n\nJoining the Minería Symphony in their first Ann Arbor performance is Latin Grammy Award-winning pianist/composer Gabriela Montero\, a frequent Prieto collaborator. Montero\, known for her passionate virtuosity and brilliant improvisation\, performs her first piano concerto\, a soulful work showing the complexities of South American life. “Montero’s playing has everything: crackling rhythmic brio\, subtle shadings\, steely power in climactic moments\, soulful lyricism in the ruminative passages and\, best of all\, unsentimental expressivity.” (The New York Times)\n\nThe concert includes works by two Mexican composers: Carlos Chávez (1899- 1978)\, an ethnomusicologist whose Sinfonía India reflects the harmonies\, rhythms\, melodies\, and instruments of the Indian cultures of Mexico\, and Silvestre Revueltas\, whose concert suite La noche de los mayas depicts Mexico’s preColumbian heritage and is drawn from his highly-regarded 1939 film score.\n\nPROGRAM\nGabriela Ortiz Kauyumari\nCarlos Chávez Symphony No. 2 (“Sinfonía India”)\nGabriela Montero Piano Concerto No. 1 (“Latin”)\nSilvestre Revueltas La noche de los mayas\n\nJoin host Doyle Armbrust for “The Society of Disobedient Listeners” — a special pre-performance talk\, 6:30 pm in the lower lobby of Hill Auditorium.

And did you hear them at the Ann Arbor Folk Festival\, playing the last movement of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony\, minus the voices but with pretty much everything else pretty much intact? Like most Californians\, most of the members of the California Guitar Trio all come from someplace else: Bert Lams is Belgian\, Paul Richards is from Salt Lake City\, and Chapman Stick wizard Paul Griesgraber came from California but studied at the Berklee College of Music in Boston. Lams and Richards pushed themselves to the limit by enrolling in Robert Fripp's challenging Guitar Craft courses\, where they first met in 1987. They went on to tour together as part of Fripp's League of Crafty Guitarists before forming The California Guitar Trio in Los Angeles four years later.

It centers on the titular “manga map”\, a rare Japanese travel map of Japan (ca. 1934) that is densely packed with manga illustrations detailing local folklore\, history\, architecture\, flora/fauna\, and more. The exhibit also includes works of Japanese art and cartography in order to consider the dichotomy between artistry and geographic depiction\, and how that plays with the definition of a “map.”\n\nAlongside the exhibit\, the manga map is also part of a new digital humanities preservation project at the library using the online crowd-sourcing platform Zooniverse\, where the map will be transcribed/translated and made into a fully interactive digital map. More information is available at the exhibit.\n\nBoth the exhibit and the Zooniverse project were created as a summer internship capstone project by Joel Liesenberg\, a dual-degree master’s student in International and Regional Studies focusing in Japanese studies and the School of Information focusing in digital curation.

Death threats and assassinations\, politically motivated sectarian violence\, rampant corruption\, and de-Ba’athification policies only further destabilized an educational system already heaving under the devastation of wars\, authoritarian regimes\, and harsh economic sanctions.\n\nThis exhibit invites solidarity with the academics targeted\, but also deeper connection with their experiences and the richness of Iraqi academic life through their written legacies and the testimonies of surviving academics\, many of whom were driven into exile.\n\nThis exhibit in the north lobby is available during Hatcher Library hours (https://myumi.ch/p75dd).\n\nA companion online exhibit\, Tracing Iraqi Artists: From Shadow to Light (https://myumi.ch/n7xre)\, explores modern Iraqi struggle and resistance through contemporary visual art and connection to Iraqi artists and educators. The curators of the online exhibit\, 2023 Michigan Library Scholars Zainab Hakim and Serena Safawi\, hope to center surviving Iraqi artists as they explore their national and artistic identities and respond to the cycles of violence caused by the Iran-Iraq war\, sanctions\, and occupation.

In the years immediately preceding the dam’s construction\, the American University in Cairo directed a large-scale project of salvage anthropology with funding from the Ford Foundation. \n\nThis endeavor yielded hundreds of photographs of al-nuba al-qadima or “Old Nubia” the term affectionately used by community members. Over the past sixty years\, Nubians have used these images to cultivate a collective memory of a lost homeland. From Aswan to Alexandria and beyond\, community members are salvaging their own stories from this anthropological archive\, reshaping it as a sentimental terrain of solidarity across time\, space\, and circumstance. \n\nThis selection of photographs includes persons\, places\, and practices as well as glimpses of the presence of the photographer and researchers. Both online and offline\, Egyptian Nubians continue to share and re-mediate these photos as they recall their historical displacement and revitalize their heritage for future generations.\n\nThe exhibit is curated by Yasmin Moll\, assistant professor of anthropology\, and coordinated by Nesrien Hamid\, doctoral student in anthropology\, with funding from the University of Michigan's Humanities Collaboratory.\n\nFor a deeper dive\, visit the companion exhibit\, Narrating Nubia\, at the Duderstadt Center on North Campus.

Throughout the European Renaissance (1300-1700)\, many book illustrations were exclusively ornamental\, while others focused on enhancing the meaning of the text. However\, as the pages on display attest\, all these illustrations share a common ground: they reveal the aesthetic and intellectual fashions first proposed by Italian artists of the 1400s\, who were strongly committed to the recovery of the past of classical antiquity.\n\nThe word “Illumination\,” from the Latin illuminare\, “to enlighten or to illuminate\,” refers to the embellishment of a manuscript or early printed book with luminous colors\, notably gold and silver. This illumination was prominent in the frontispiece\, or first page of text\, which included the decoration of its borders and initial letter\, and even miniatures\, that is\, scenes with an independent narrative. With the introduction of movable-type printing in 1454\, these illuminations would be gradually replaced by woodcuts\, which were printed from a woodblock that had been cut by knife along the grain of the wood.\n\nAvailable during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://myumi.ch/2m7d4).\n\nJoin us on September 13 for a talk by Pablo Alvarez\, curator of the exhibit.

Located in the former Homestake gold mine in Lead\, South Dakota\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) houses experiments that give us a better understanding of the universe. The location—deep underground—provides a near-perfect environment for experiments that need to escape the constant bombardment of cosmic radiation\, which can interfere with the detection of rare physics events. Built in collaboration with the University of Michigan\, the LUX-Zeplin is the world’s most sensitive dark matter experiment. SURF also hosts experiments in biology\, geology and engineering.\n\nGina Gibson is an internationally exhibiting artist and professor of Graphic Design at Black Hills State University. In 2019\, Gibson became the first artist in residence at the Sanford Underground Research Facility. Gibson's work celebrates the search deep below the surface for beauty in the old and new\, the light and dark\, and the known and unknown.\n\nUN/EARTH was developed in collaboration with the U-M Department of Physics\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility and Black Hills State University.

From its inception\, the U-M Herbarium has cataloged and described plants—both poisonous and beneficial to human health—and still serves that role today. See specimens of these plant and fungal “friends” and “foes” from the U-M Herbarium collection and learn about how the collection is used for drug discovery today.

In the realm of biological macromolecules such as proteins and nucleic acids\, form determines function\, so visualizing the three-dimensional structures of molecules is key in researching the ‘tiny’ macromolecules that perform vital functions in our cells. In Biophysics 421\, under the guidance of Markos Koutmos\, Assistant Professor of Biophysics & Chemistry\, and Liz Tidwell\, PhD candidate in Biophysics\, students created models with digital modeling software and brought them to life via 3D printing. This exhibit showcases the 3D printed molecules\, scaled up to better reveal the structures that inform\, make\, break\, modify\, and move within the body.

The exhibition examines the Amistad Dam in Del Rio\, the largest dam in Rio Grande that is jointly managed by the United States and Mexico and other contested sites in the region to unravel layered histories\, connections\, and tensions present in West Texas through film\, sculpture\, installation\, collage\, and drawing. \nThe experimental documentary film Teaching of the Hands is the center point of the exhibition - as it combines oral histories\, reenactments\, and archival footage to narrate a complex history of colonization\, migration\, and ecological precarity\, Told from the perspective of Juan Mancias\, Chairman of the Carrizo Comecrudo Tribe of Texas\, scenes from the present day are woven together with those from 4\,000 years in the past to investigate the transformation of Somi Se’k* by way of industry\, infrastructure\, and private property. \nEmerging from the research to create the film\, the exhibition includes an immersive installation of surveying flags and tools\, series of drawings and collages\, and a collection of original watercolors from the 1930s by artists and amateur archaeologists Forrest and Lula Kirkland that depict the ancient rock art of the Lower Pecos\,that expand on concepts in The Teachings of the Hands. The watercolors\, rarely seen plein air paintings\, are on loan from the Texas Archaeological Research Laboratory at the University of Texas\, and document the original forms and vibrant colors of murals that were still visible in the 1930s before flooding\, erosion\, and human interaction damaged or destroyed them. This exhibition has been shown in various iterations at Ballroom Marfa\, the University of Texas at Austin\, the Rubin Center for the Visual Arts\, the Museum of Modern Art in New York and University of California\, Santa Barbara\, and will be shown in Michigan and the midwest for the first time. The Blessings of the Mystery brings together an expansive body of work that sheds light on vital histories\, living memories and Indigenous knowledge-systems embedded within the land well before the colonial boundaries between Mexico and the US were established - advocating for environmental justice and recognition of Indigenous rights and cosmologies.

We have carefully curated a collection of audio samples\, including names of people who played a part in this significant chapter of history (abolitionists\, conductors\, and freedom seekers)\, as well as snippets of music that represent the URR. The installation aims to immerse the audience in the aural experience and engage them in interaction. \n\nJoin us anytime October 24-28\, 12-7pm. (Closed when raining.) \n\nThe installation involves utilizing a remote-controlled boat on the Music Pond. We developed a project workflow that treats the pond as a navigational 'map.' Within the pond\, we've designated specific locations such that when the remote control boat passes over them\, it activates one of the audio samples from our collection. This approach enables active audience participation\, with individuals taking control of the boat\, effectively making the audience an integral component of our installation. \n\nWe believe that leveraging the Music Pond\, a shared space for many within the SMTD community\, and to actively involve the audience will encourage people to explore and wonder about the installation. It presents a valuable opportunity for visitors to reflect on the Underground Railroad (maybe even plant a seed)\, take a moment to honor the individuals who played a role in this historical chapter\, and contemplate its significance.\n\n*This event is supported by the Arts & Resistance Theme Semester.* UID:114168-21832427@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114168 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Diversity,Free,In Person,Interdisciplinary,Media,Music,North Campus,Social Impact LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231117T094743 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231028T123000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231028T131500 SUMMARY:Presentation:Sky Tonight DESCRIPTION:A live presentation on what to find in the sky tonight and for the coming few weeks.

With a change of cast in 2019\, the band is shifting its weight and focusing more on the melodic components. The rhythms of their new sound leave room for the songs to breathe and for the vocals to take on the spotlight. Now equipped with four vocalists\, the band is diving into the textures they can create with vocal harmonies and exploring the newly-created space with instrumental curiosity\, adding more improvisational elements into the otherwise-tight arrangements. The sweet energetic charm of lead singer Erin Zindle demands attention. She is an enigma of ageless quality\, agile and joyful\, yet rooted in wisdom. In her daily life\, Erin is devoted to the tedious work of songcraft\, but in her performances\, the songs flow from her effortlessly\, as if she is channeling them\, radiating as she sings the words she has polished to a fine shine.\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4255/4256 for more detail.

It centers on the titular “manga map”\, a rare Japanese travel map of Japan (ca. 1934) that is densely packed with manga illustrations detailing local folklore\, history\, architecture\, flora/fauna\, and more. The exhibit also includes works of Japanese art and cartography in order to consider the dichotomy between artistry and geographic depiction\, and how that plays with the definition of a “map.”\n\nAlongside the exhibit\, the manga map is also part of a new digital humanities preservation project at the library using the online crowd-sourcing platform Zooniverse\, where the map will be transcribed/translated and made into a fully interactive digital map. More information is available at the exhibit.\n\nBoth the exhibit and the Zooniverse project were created as a summer internship capstone project by Joel Liesenberg\, a dual-degree master’s student in International and Regional Studies focusing in Japanese studies and the School of Information focusing in digital curation.

Death threats and assassinations\, politically motivated sectarian violence\, rampant corruption\, and de-Ba’athification policies only further destabilized an educational system already heaving under the devastation of wars\, authoritarian regimes\, and harsh economic sanctions.\n\nThis exhibit invites solidarity with the academics targeted\, but also deeper connection with their experiences and the richness of Iraqi academic life through their written legacies and the testimonies of surviving academics\, many of whom were driven into exile.\n\nThis exhibit in the north lobby is available during Hatcher Library hours (https://myumi.ch/p75dd).\n\nA companion online exhibit\, Tracing Iraqi Artists: From Shadow to Light (https://myumi.ch/n7xre)\, explores modern Iraqi struggle and resistance through contemporary visual art and connection to Iraqi artists and educators. The curators of the online exhibit\, 2023 Michigan Library Scholars Zainab Hakim and Serena Safawi\, hope to center surviving Iraqi artists as they explore their national and artistic identities and respond to the cycles of violence caused by the Iran-Iraq war\, sanctions\, and occupation.

In the years immediately preceding the dam’s construction\, the American University in Cairo directed a large-scale project of salvage anthropology with funding from the Ford Foundation. \n\nThis endeavor yielded hundreds of photographs of al-nuba al-qadima or “Old Nubia” the term affectionately used by community members. Over the past sixty years\, Nubians have used these images to cultivate a collective memory of a lost homeland. From Aswan to Alexandria and beyond\, community members are salvaging their own stories from this anthropological archive\, reshaping it as a sentimental terrain of solidarity across time\, space\, and circumstance. \n\nThis selection of photographs includes persons\, places\, and practices as well as glimpses of the presence of the photographer and researchers. Both online and offline\, Egyptian Nubians continue to share and re-mediate these photos as they recall their historical displacement and revitalize their heritage for future generations.\n\nThe exhibit is curated by Yasmin Moll\, assistant professor of anthropology\, and coordinated by Nesrien Hamid\, doctoral student in anthropology\, with funding from the University of Michigan's Humanities Collaboratory.\n\nFor a deeper dive\, visit the companion exhibit\, Narrating Nubia\, at the Duderstadt Center on North Campus. It delves into the archaeological\, anthropological\, and community narratives of both ancient and modern-day Nubia spanning Egypt and Sudan.

Throughout the European Renaissance (1300-1700)\, many book illustrations were exclusively ornamental\, while others focused on enhancing the meaning of the text. However\, as the pages on display attest\, all these illustrations share a common ground: they reveal the aesthetic and intellectual fashions first proposed by Italian artists of the 1400s\, who were strongly committed to the recovery of the past of classical antiquity.\n\nThe word “Illumination\,” from the Latin illuminare\, “to enlighten or to illuminate\,” refers to the embellishment of a manuscript or early printed book with luminous colors\, notably gold and silver. This illumination was prominent in the frontispiece\, or first page of text\, which included the decoration of its borders and initial letter\, and even miniatures\, that is\, scenes with an independent narrative. With the introduction of movable-type printing in 1454\, these illuminations would be gradually replaced by woodcuts\, which were printed from a woodblock that had been cut by knife along the grain of the wood.\n\nAvailable during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://myumi.ch/2m7d4).\n\nJoin us on September 13 for a talk by Pablo Alvarez\, curator of the exhibit.
