SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manga no Ryokou: The “Manga Map” and A Journey Through the Art of Depiction in Japanese Cartography
DESCRIPTION:The exhibit examines the intersection between art\, narrative\, and geography within Japanese cartography. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Shadow and Light : Solidarity and Connection with Iraqi Academics
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit incorporates a selection of work from the Shadow and Light project\, an initiative memorializing Iraqi academics assassinated between 2003-2013\, a timeframe which roughly parallels the US-led invasion and occupation of Iraq. \n\nParticipants from around the world — including Iraqis in diaspora — contributed photographs and personal statements responding to the loss of a particular Iraqi academic listed by the Spanish Campaign against the Occupation and for the Sovereignty of Iraq (La Campaña Estatal contra la Ocupación y por la Soberanía de Iraq / IraqSolidaridad 2005-2013). \n\nThe project emerges from a broader effort undertaken by Iraqis and allies to document the assault on Iraqi scholars\, intellectuals\, and cultural institutions which flared in the wake of the destruction and division wrought by the US-led invasion and occupation. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Sentimental Archive: Remembering Nubia through Salvage Anthropology
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit showcases select photographs from The American University in Cairo’s Rare Books and Special Collections Library taken by the renowned Egyptian photographer Abd al-Fattah Eid as well as by the Cairo-born Swiss artist Margo Veillon.\n\nIn 1964\, the construction of the Aswan High Dam displaced Nubians from their ancestral villages along the banks of the Nile in Egypt. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:WCEE Exhibition. 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. She is also the art director of the “Ukrainian Unofficial” research project\, which compiles archives of Ukrainian unofficial art of the second half of the twentieth century.\n\nArtist website: https://www.flickr.com/photos/196914550@N02/albums\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:NCKS Perspectives on Contemporary Korea Conference 2023
DESCRIPTION:Complete conference details and the program of events are available at https://myumi.ch/W23nX.\n\nAttend in person or attend via Zoom at https://myumi.ch/8ebxM.\n\nOrganizers:\n\nHilary Finchum-Sung (Nam Center for Korean Studies\, University of Michigan/Association for Asian Studies)\n\nYoungju Ryu (Department of Asian Languages and Cultures\, University of Michigan)\n\nThe concept of ‘Korean Music’ conjures many things: Kpop\, pungmulnori ensembles on university campuses\, stately court orchestras and dance\, the lullabies and wails of the folk experience… there is so much\, and its routes and evolutions are countless and astounding. The title of the 2-day conference\, part of the Nam Center’s Perspectives on Contemporary Korea conference series\, references the visceral\, emotional experiences embedded in and conjured by Korean music performance across many eras\, genres\, and locations. In the 21st century\, Korean music defies geopolitical boundaries and the confines of genre as artists draw on their own experiences and communities to express the lived realities of the contemporary Korean experience. The music we explore in this symposium is inclusive of long-standing traditions and new creations on the Korean peninsula\, music performance in the Diaspora\, and collaborations drawing and expanding upon Korean musical aesthetics. The participants in this two-day event will explore the many notions of Korean music on and beyond the Korean peninsula\, through space and time\, and reimagined via multiple encounters and experiences.\n\nThis event will be a combination of traditional paper presentation\, roundtables\, and workshops. There will also be at least two performances during the two-day event. The event will be free & open to the public. Attendance will be available both in-person and virtual.\n\nThis event is a program feature of the U-M Fall 2023 Festival of Asian Music. https://smtd.umich.edu/asian-music-festival/

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Digital Engrams
DESCRIPTION:The notion that our brains actually create memories first stored and then revisited has been contemplated since the time of Plato and Aristotle. These units of memory\, or engrams\, are poetic portals through which we time travel\, gaining hindsight and foresight\, more meaning and greater wisdom\, and hopes for a future less encumbered. Beyond reminiscences of technicolor sunsets\, perhaps memories are simply the brain's records of endless repetitions and familiar neural pathways.\n\nIn an era of iPhones\, Macbooks\, Instagram\, and Facebook\, everything that’s happened to us in recent memory is at our immediate disposal and made to look better than the original … every day of every year\, every meal of every trip\, every postcard destination. With constant 24/7 access to the newsreel of our own lives\, are we losing our innate ability to remember what matters in the process? \n\nIn Digital Engrams\, L.A. artist Gabriela Ruiz combines sound\, video\, light and sculpture to create unexpected environments that challenge our sensibilities. The installation considers how images function on and off the screen\, and how memories real and curated are the crux of personal and cultural identity. Who do we think we are in this life or the eternal life on the internet hereafter? \n\nRuiz’s spatial inquiries grapple with the potential erasure of the rituals of memorialization and the richness of material culture so important in her own Latinx heritage and to her sense of self.\n\n–Amanda Krugliak\, IH Arts Curator\n\nAbout the artist:\nGabriela Ruiz is a self-taught artist whose practice blends diverse forms of expression and media\, including sculpture\, video\, painting\, and apparel design. Her sculptures incorporate found objects and industrial materials\, such as thrift store furniture and insulation foam. Strongly influenced by growing up in L.A.’s San Fernando Valley to immigrant parents from Mexico\, Ruiz’s practice is a reflection of the DIY work ethic she was raised under\, the vibrancy of Mexican cultural and artistic traditions\, and her exposure to subculture and fantasy at a young age as a means to escape the realities of daily life.\n\nOne of L.A.’s rising young talents\, she presented her solo show Stream at the Palm Springs Art Museum in 2022\, part of the museum's Outburst project.\n\n*Gabriela Ruiz is the Jean Yokes Woodhead Visiting Artist at the Institute for the Humanities. This exhibition is part of LSA's fall 2023 Art & Resistance theme semester.*

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Holding Places Exhibition by Satchel Lee
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Hours: Mon-Fri\, 9 am-5 pm or by appointment: serrag@med.umich.edu\nBorn and raised in New York City\, Satchel Lee is a multi-media artist whose work can best be described as portraiture. Through collaborations with her immediate community\, and also using herself as a subject\, Lee draws inspiration from the quotidian\, creating offbeat images that aim to preserve this moment in time\, (re) examine memories (especially those clouded by confusion) all the while asking questions around identity and existence.\n\nLee holds a BFA from the Maurice Kanbar Institute of Film and Television at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts. She is currently pursuing her MFA in Photography at School of the Art Institute of Chicago.\n\nIn Lee’s photographic exploration\, she investigates the profound connection between places and structures and the echoes of trauma that inhabit them. “Holding Places” is an exhibition that immerses viewers into a visual narrative\, inviting them to witness the power of space as holders and conduits for personal memory.\n\nBy reconstructing these places by hand in model scale and rendering them not as they were\, but how she experienced them\, she is able to navigate intimate details and hidden narratives that exist within them. The process of crafting these miniatures becomes a meditative contemplation\, giving Lee time to sit and reflect on these past events.\n\nThrough Lee’s lens\, they capture the visual manifestations of the ghosts of the past. The photographs offer glimpses into spaces where anguish\, conflict and distress have left their imprints\, sometimes visible\, sometimes buried beneath layers of time (and self preservation).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Illustrating the Renaissance Book: From Illumination to Woodcut
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy a selection of manuscripts and early printed books from the 15th to the 17th centuries that were illustrated with illuminations and woodcuts. 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.

The writing portion is completed on paper and it is worth a total of 100 points.b. The reading portion is completed on Canvas site\, and it is worth a total of 48 points.c. Right after finishing with the reading portion\, each student will have a follow-up interview with a proctor. The interviews last approximately 15 minutes and it is worth a total of 20 points.Important: a. The interview portion will be weighted most heavily as it will be used to validate performance on the other portions. The final result/score/rating will thus be based on the student’s performance on the interview above all. Rating of performance on the writing or reading portions is secondary. b. Students who receive 60% or above will be placed in Arabic 401 and thus placed out of the language requirement.c. Students who are not able to write in Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) do not need to take the placement test and they will be advised to enroll in Arabic 101.Where can I view my results?Placement results are posted within 7 business days after the test.You will not be notified of your score automatically. You may view your placements via: Wolverine Access > Student Business > Academic Records > View Placement Exam Results.Important information about the test* Placements are valid for only one year. If you fail to register in the course that you are placed in\, you will be required to retake the test.* Retaking the placement test is only permitted after the placement results expire.* The test assesses students’ proficiency in Modern Standard Arabic (MSA)\, NOT colloquial Arabic.  * If you speak an Arabic dialect but you do not know how to read or write or have little knowledge\, feel free to register in Arabic 101.* Students who know some Arabic because they came from an Arabic-speaking household or have studied Arabic before\, must take the Arabic proficiency test in order to determine their placement.* Students who have taken Arabic at other institutions and wish to continue their Arabic study at UM must take the placement test to determine their level. Credits for Arabic study undertaken at another institution prior to joining UM or in a summer program while attending UM\, transfer in as generic departmental credits and students must take the placement test to determine credit equivalencies to UM courses.* If you place in or beyond the 401 level\, you will have satisfied the LSA language requirement. * Students are encouraged to take a placement test as early as possible in their studies in order to determine the level they should enroll in\, or if they test out of the language requirement. This is extremely important to avoid delays in graduation and complications with placement.* Arabic 101\, 201\, 401\, 501 are offered ONLY in the Fall semester\, and Arabic 102\, 202\, 402\, 504 are ONLY offered in the Winter semester.* The Summer Language Institute (June & July) offers intensive Arabic 103 (the equivalent of Arabic 101 &102\, combined)\, Arabic 203 (the equivalent of Arabic 201 & 202\, combined)\, and Arabic 401 & 402.If you have questions regarding the placement test\, please contact the program director at\, mesarabicprogram@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Sarah Buckius: !!!techn010ffspring!!!
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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Featured Exhibits
DESCRIPTION:Featuring work by Gina Gibson\, UN/EARTH explores science and art from a mile underground. 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.

DESCRIPTION:Stop by the Student Showcase display in the museum’s main atrium\, behind the mastodons\, to see Molecules of Life.\n\nAugust 2023–July 2024\n\nMolecules of Life (Student Showcase)\nDiscover the connection between form and function as you explore the molecular building blocks of life. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Respond/ Resist/ Rethink 2023
DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with the Fall 2023 Theme Semester: Arts &amp\; Resistance\, Stamps Gallery is partnering with the U‑M Arts Initiative to expand the 4th annual Respond/Resist/Rethink student art exhibition. All undergraduate and graduate students enrolled at the Ann Arbor\, Dearborn\, or Flint U-M campuses in Fall 2023 are invited to apply to this juried exhibition that explores what can be done to create more just and equitable futures in the 21st Century and beyond.\n The 2023 exhibition will include art of a variety of mediums and will be displayed in four galleries across all three U-M campuses\, including Stamps Gallery (Central Campus\, Ann Arbor)\, Duderstadt Center Gallery (North Campus\, Ann Arbor)\, Riverbank Arts (Flint)\, and Stamelos Gallery (Dearborn). \nThe arts play a central role in shaping cultural and political narratives. Artists\, designers and creatives of diverse backgrounds have been at the forefront of social change by offering alternate models and ways of thinking\, making and creating that do not perpetuate dominant regimes. Creative processes have been used time and again to reveal under-told stories and to resist simple narratives. Regardless of one&#039\;s personal politics\, an artwork&#039\;s potential to change hearts and minds is urgent and necessary. \nRespond/ Resist/ Rethink invites students to leverage their creativity to (re)imagine what they can do to create a more just and equitable community in the spaces that they inhabit.\nThroughout the spring\, summer\, and fall of 2023\, U-M students submitted artworks through an open call process. A final list of artworks were chosen for the exhibition by a Selection Committee made up of U-M faculty\, staff\, and students. \n\nThe 2023 RRR Selection Committee members are: \nPedram Baldari\, Jim Cogswell\, Laura Cotton\, Nalani Duarte\, Adrienne Frank\, Benjamin Gaydos\, Kathryn Grabowski-Khairullah\, Quinn Hunter\, Ikalanni Jahi\, Jennifer Junkermeier-Khan\, Joe Levickas\, Srimoyee Mitra\, Kathi Reister\, Chloe Schans\, and Grace Sirman. \nThe 2023 RRR Curatorial Committee members are: \nLaura Cotton\, Nalani Duarte\, Benjamin Gaydos\, Kathryn Grabowski-Khairullah\, Srimoyee Mitra\, and Kathi Reister. \nThe 2023 RRR Organizing Committee members are: Chris Audain\, Adrienne Frank\, Kathryn Grabowski-Khairullah\, Jennifer Junkermeier-Khan\, Joe Levickas\, Srimoyee Mitra\, and Joe Rohrer.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Blessings of the Mystery
DESCRIPTION:The Blessings of the Mystery examines themes of socio-economic\, environmental activism\, encounters between history and memory\, Indigenous rights\, and the formation and distribution of knowledge. 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.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Thursday Noon Lecture Series | The Curious Case of Aoto Fujitsuna
DESCRIPTION:Attend in person or via Zoom. Zoom registration at http://myumi.ch/p7WXy\n\nAlthough best known for its dramatic battle scenes\, the medieval war tale *Taiheiki* also introduces Aoto Fujitsuna\, a minor government official who becomes famous by offering a valuable lesson on economic principles. Who was Aoto and how did he become so famous? What does the inclusion of his story in *Taiheiki* reveal about an expanding medieval economy? And how have pre-modern economic ideas been received by early modern and modern people?\n   \n   Ethan Segal is Associate Professor of History and Chair of the Japan Council at Michigan State University. He earned his PhD at Stanford University\, was a Fulbright Scholar at the University of Tokyo\, and served as Visiting Assistant Professor at Harvard University. He is the author of *Coins\, Trade\, and the State: Economic Growth in Early Medieval Japan*\, published in 2011\, as well as a variety of articles and book chapters\, including a forthcoming piece in the journal *Ajia yūgaku*. Topics of his research include monetary history\, women and gender\, and the ways in which Japan and its history are depicted on television. Professor Segal spent last year on a research leave at Waseda University working on a new project exploring premodern Japanese economic thought\; this lecture draws in part on that research.\n\n*This lecture is made possible with the generous support of the U.S. Department of Education Title VI grant.*\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at wugou@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CREES Lecture. Ukrainian Poetry and Resistance
DESCRIPTION:In this panel\, Alex Averbuch\, Oksana Maksymchuk\, and Max Rosochinsky join in conversation moderated by Svitlana Rogovyk over the interweaving traditions of poetry and resistance in Ukraine. Poetry has been used as a tool of resistance in Ukraine in a number of ways: as a means of preserving languages\, as a witness to atrocity\, as a form of remembrance\, as a testament to survival\, and as a grounds for experimentation and celebration. As poets\, translators\, and scholars of Ukraine\, the panelists offer their personal and professional insights to the social role of the arts in the context of Ukraine's multiethnic culture and history. Discussion will be accompanied by poetry reading.\n   \nResponding to Russia’s war against Ukraine\, artist Irina Bondarenko created the installation *Guardian Passage* by pairing images of guardian figures with the lines of poetry to invoke the sense of cultural guardianship that Ukrainian language carries for the nation. Alex Averbuch’s poem\, “He wasn’t there alone” in Oksana Maksymchuk and Max Rosochinsky’s translation is featured in the project.\n   \nAlex Averbuch\, a poet\, translator\, and scholar\, is the author of three books of poetry and an array of literary translations between Hebrew\, Ukrainian\, English\, and Russian. English translations of his poems have appeared in the *Manhattan Review\, Copper Nickel\, Plume\, Birmingham Poetry Review\, Words Without Borders\, Constellations\,* and *Common Knowledge.* His latest book\, *Zhydivs’kyi korol' (The Jewish King)\,* was a finalist for the Shevchenko National Prize\, Ukraine’s highest award for culture and literature. He is a postdoctoral fellow at the Davis Center for Russian and Eurasian Studies\, Harvard University.\n   \nOksana Maksymchuk is a bilingual Ukrainian-American poet\, scholar\, and literary translator. Her poetry appeared in *AGNI\, The Irish Times\, The Paris Review\, The Poetry Review\,* and elsewhere. In Ukrainian\, she is the author of poetry collections *Xenia* and *Lovy* and a recipient of the B.-I. Antonych and Smoloskyp prizes\, two of Ukraine’s top awards for younger poets. She is a visiting professor of English at the University of Chicago.\n   \nMax Rosochinsky is a poet\, scholar\, and translator. With Oksana Maksymchuk\, he co-edited *Words for War: New Poems from Ukraine\,* and co-translated *Apricots of Donbas* by Lyuba Yakimchuk\, and *The Voices of Babyn Yar* by Marianna Kiyanovska. Their award-winning work has been supported by the Fritz Thyssen Foundation\, Institute for Human Sciences in Vienna\, Fulbright Scholar Program\, National Endowment for the Humanities\, and National Endowment for the Arts. He is a visiting scholar in Slavic languages and literatures at the University of Chicago.\n\nSvitlana Rogovyk is a teaching professor and language program coordinator in the U-M Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures. Svitlana specializes in second language acquisition and pedagogy\, language curriculum design and development\, teaching Slavic languages to heritage speakers\, and language proficiency assessment.\n   \nThis panel is presented in coordination with the exhibition *Guardian Passage: The Power of Ukrainian Cultural Memory in the Face of War *featuring art by Irina Bondarenko and Katya Lisova on display in the International Institute Gallery (547 Weiser Hall) from October 2 - November 29\, 2023.\n   \nThis project was made possible by a grant from the Arts Initiative at the University of Michigan and is co-sponsored by the Center for Russian\, East European\, and Eurasian Studies\; Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia\, LSA Theme Semester on Arts and Resistance\; U-M Arts Initiative\; and the University of Michigan Museum of Art.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CSAAW Talk | Power in numbers: insights from new data on lobbying in the United States
DESCRIPTION:*Click the link below to register for lunch*\n\nAbstract:\nOrganized interest groups sway policymaking at all levels of US governance. But for a long time political scientists have lacked systematic data on what these groups actually want out of policy. A new dataset of lobbying and testimony records from State legislatures allows unprecedentedly-detailed study of attempts to influence state politics. But it also brings many challenges. How should we understand — and model — the activities of groups so disparate as corporations\, trade associations\, nonprofits\, unions\, churches\, and so on? Common approaches from political science\, designed to capture the policy preferences of legislators\, do not adapt well to this case. Borrowing from the networks and complex systems world\, I propose methods for quantifying and characterizing the policy interests of these groups which capture (most of) the richness in the data while also making it legible for researchers. I also show how methods developed for recommender systems like Netflix or Spotify may be able to model the preferences of organized interests by treating them as “users” and the bills they lobby on as “products”. Finally\, I point to several ways in which this information can improve the broader quantitative study of legislative politics.\n\nBio:\nGalen started his PhD in Sociology in 2023. His primary research interests have so far focused on the politics of energy and climate in the American states and at the national level. After graduating in 2020 he worked in the Climate and Development Lab at Brown\, leading several studies on public counter-movements against greenhouse gas mitigation policies as well as state-level interest group politics. At Michigan he will continue this line of research using multiple methods\, primarily quantitative analysis of texts\, demographic and political data\, and data on interest groups.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:LSI Seminar Series: Anna Huttenlocher\, M.D.\, University of Wisconsin Medical School
DESCRIPTION:Huttenlocher will discuss her lab's research at the interface of cell biology and immunology. Their work is centered on understanding innate immune inflammation and its resolution. They seek to dissect how external cues and cell signaling networks regulate neutrophil migration during tissue damage and repair and how this is altered in human disease.\n\nSpeaker:\n\nAnna Huttenlocher\, M.D.\, is the Anna Ruth Brummett Professor of Pediatrics and Medical Microbiology and Immunology at the University of Wisconsin Medical School. Her laboratory is focused on understanding the basic molecular mechanisms that regulate cell migration in response to tissue damage and repair. They are particularly interested in the basic mechanisms that mediate neutrophil inflammation and its resolution. They have extensive experience with cell migration research\, host pathogen interactions and live cell imaging using both organotypic models and zebrafish as a model system. The group has developed disease models of wound healing\, cancer and chronic inflammation using zebrafish\, and has has a strong track record in resource generation and in sharing reagents with the research community. \n\nHuttenlocher is a member of the National Academy of Medicine\, was chair of the Gordon conference on Directed cell migration\, co-chaired a Banbury conference\, served on council for the American Society of Cell Biology\, serve as a senior editor at the Journal of Cell Biology and was Chair of a NIH study section. She has been committed to the education of Ph.D. and M.D. scientists in both basic and translational research. Many of her former trainees run independent research programs\, including at RIKEN Japan\, University of Colorado-Boulder\, University of Connecticut\, Purdue University\, University of Wisconsin\, University of Iowa\, Rutgers University and Albert Einstein.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Muyumoqo: Preliminary Results from a Late Formative (600 BCE - 200 CE) Center in Cusco\, Peru
DESCRIPTION:Despite the long history of archaeological interest in the Cusco region of Peru\, research on pre-Inka societies has lagged behind other regions of the Andes. In particular\, our understanding of the Late Formative (600 BCE - 200 CE) remains underdeveloped. Based on extensive surveys and limited excavation data\, it has been argued that significant changes occurred in the economic and political realms during this period. The Late Formative is hypothesized to have been a time of increasing political complexity and expanding engagement in interregional exchange. However\, the process behind how these changes came about remains unclear. In this talk\, I utilize data from both regional surveys as well as excavations at various sites throughout the region to detail the current state of knowledge on Formative Cusco. After providing this background\, I will present the results of two seasons of excavations at the site of Muyumoqo\, a potential Late Formative political and economic center located in the Chit'apampa Basin. Extensive horizontal excavations have provided supporting evidence for Muyumoqo's role as an economic and political center during the Late Formative. As I will discuss\, the site appears distinct from other known Late Formative communities and may provide early evidence for the consumption of chicha. Finally\, I will also briefly discuss the finding of a potential\, persistent household ritual practice.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Respond/Resist/Rethink
DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with the Fall 2023 Theme Semester: Arts & Resistance and the U‑M Arts Initiative. The 2023 Respond/Resist/Rethink exhibition will include art of a variety of mediums and will be displayed in four galleries across all three U‑M campuses\, including Stamps Gallery (Central Campus\, Ann Arbor)\, Duderstadt Center Gallery (North Campus\, Ann Arbor)\, Riverbank Arts (Flint)\, and Stamelos Gallery (Dearborn).\n\nThe arts play a central role in shaping cultural and political narratives. Artists\, designers and creatives of diverse backgrounds have been at the forefront of social change. Creative processes have been used time and again to reveal under-told stories and to resist simple narratives. Regardless of one’s personal politics\, an artwork’s potential to change hearts and minds is urgent and necessary. Respond/​Resist/​Rethink invites students to leverage their creativity to (re)imagine what they can do to create a more just and equitable community in the spaces that they inhabit.\n\nNote: The Duderstadt Center will close slightly earlier\, on Dec 1.\nDuderstadt Center Gallery Hours: Noon-6pm Tues-Fri\, Noon-6pm Sunday

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:International Perspectives on Teamwork in Engineering Education
DESCRIPTION:Teamwork or collaboration skills are integral to contemporary engineering practice and are highly valued in academic and industry settings. ABET also considers vital teamwork skills as one key student learning outcome for accreditation and evaluation of engineering education. Research shows that student learning outcomes are highly affected by faculty beliefs about teaching and learning. Effective professional development programs for faculty need to understand their beliefs as these beliefs shape their teaching practices.  As engineering practice and engineering education are becoming increasingly globalized\, we need to take a more culturally relevant approach to understand how key competencies such as teamwork are culturally constructed and how the development of faculty beliefs is affected by broader cultural factors. In this seminar\, Yi will introduce some of her educational background and research experiences to provide an international lens to understand teamwork in engineering education. She will then present a systematic review of the existing Chinese literature on how Chinese faculty conceptualize teamwork in the classroom. In conclusion\, she will also talk about some parts of her dissertation\, how faculty in the US develop their teaching beliefs about teamwork.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Cover Letters and Resumes for Diverse Career Pathways in the Humanities Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Register for this workshop at https://myumi.ch/W24xd.\n\nPresented by the Institute for the Humanities\, Rackham Graduate School\, and the University Career Center\, this series of events is intended to support humanities graduate students from across fields in exploring and preparing for the diverse career paths available to them. Students may attend events individually\, but may find it especially helpful to attend each in progression.\n\nAbout today's workshop:\nWith a focus on humanities students\, this workshop will provide guidance around cover letters and resumes for positions beyond tenure track roles.\n\nThe process of synthesizing your academic experiences into strong application materials for jobs beyond academia can be challenging but rewarding. This workshop is a hands-on opportunity for graduate students to learn how to effectively develop a resume using the foundation that they have laid with information and experiences from their CV. The session will also include strategies for writing compelling\, tailored cover letters and thinking strategically about how these two documents complement each other.\n\nTo make the most of the session\, students should come prepared to discuss and workshop ideas\, and have a simple list of their recent experiences and skills they might want to highlight (a CV or past resume would also work). \n\nAbout the presenters:\nJoe Cialdella is the assistant director of internships & public scholarship at Rackham Graduate School. Kirsten Elling is the coordinator for graduate student career advancement and the Rackham embedded career counselor at the University Career Center.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Thursday Seminar Series - Farming with fish pee: applying ecological theory to help sustain ecosystem services in tropical coastal ecosystems
DESCRIPTION:This talk is a part of our ongoing Thursday seminar series. \n\nAbout: Understanding the controls on ecosystem production underpins our ability to effectively manage coastal ecosystems and the services they provide millions of people worldwide. In this talk\, Allgeier will provide evidence at multiple spatial scales that ‘fish pee’ may also provide an unlikely means to promote the conservation of coastal tropical ecosystems and the resources they provide. Throughout the talk\, he will provide examples of how his research program bridges science with conservation efforts\, underscoring how a theory-driven approach to ecology can be directly applied to help solve real-world conservation problems in highly impaired coastal tropical ecosystems.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Department of Astronomy 2023-2024 Colloquium Series Presents:
DESCRIPTION:\"Resolved Stellar Populations Studies with the Hubble and James Webb Space Telescopes\"\n\nThe study of resolved stellar populations in nearby galaxies was transformed by the high sensitivity and spatial resolution of the Hubble Space Telescope (HST)\, and is now being transformed again with the more powerful James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). The results have far-reaching impacts ranging from providing the most detailed and quantitative measures of the star formation histories of low-mass galaxies and insights into their growth across cosmic timescales\, to determining precise distances to galaxies throughout the Local Volume which place galaxy properties on an absolute scale and are essential inputs for measuring of the local value of the Hubble Constant.\n\nIn this talk\, I will (i) highlight recent results from resolved star studies on very low-mass galaxies with HST data\, (ii) present the first star formation history of a galaxy with JWST data alongside a comparison to HST data of the same field\, and (iii) introduce new tip of the giant branch (TRGB) distance calibrations derived from HST infrared data and JWST data on nearby galaxies\, the latter of which paves the way for a JWST-based measure of the Hubble Constant.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:33rd Annual Davis\, Markert\, Nickerson Lecture on Academic and Intellectual Freedom
DESCRIPTION:Across the country\, state legislators are increasingly making clear their intentions to pass laws to tighten control over — or outright censor — public education in schools\, colleges and universities. On campuses\, this movement threatens to upend commitments to the free exchange of ideas and institutional autonomy in curricular\, research\, and hiring decisions\, putting academic freedom in peril. Professors are already attesting to a chilled climate\, in which they have become concerned with running afoul of new laws delimiting teaching about race\, gender\, American history\, and LGBTQ+ identities. This talk will summarize the current state of play concerning this rising menace\, why it must be confronted\, and how the higher education community has a unique role to play in communicating this anti-democratic threat to the public. It will offer a clarion call and suggestions for how to create campuses that serve academic freedom for all in the lead up to the 2024 election and beyond.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:DSI Esports Symposium | Playing Like An Asian: Race\, Gender\, & Athleticism in Esports
DESCRIPTION:How can people make a living out of playing video games? Who would want to watch them? And why? \n \nEsports — video gaming as a spectator sport — currently boasts an estimated global viewership of 500 million and an annual revenue of over US$1 billion. This talk examines esports' perceived novelty through the lens of its history and popularity in East Asia\, particularly South Korea and China. East Asian players continue to profoundly dominate today’s global esports scene\, even while the video games that they excel at are American-made. The drama (and the profitability) of this global virtual competition depends on a potent set of fantasies about race\, gender\, national identity\, and ideal \"sportsmanship.\" Esports both interrupts and reproduces stereotypes of Asian and Asian American men as unathletic\, nerdy\, “cheap\,” hyper-competitive Others. This talk argues that the continued success of global esports ultimately depends on a toxic set of \"mini-games\" which bring together old and new modes of inter-racial competition\, ideas of masculinity and athleticism\, and American nationalism against the backdrop of a rising China. \nTara Fickle is Associate Professor of Asian American Studies at Northwestern University. Her first book\, The Race Card: From Gaming Technologies to Model Minorities\, (NYU Press\, 2019\, winner of Before Columbus Foundation’s American Book Award)\, explores how games have been used to establish and combat Asian and Asian American racial stereotypes. Fickle’s current research projects include the racialized dimensions of esports\, virtual currency harvesting in video games\, and a digital archive of the canonical Asian American anthology\, Aiiieeeee!

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:How Are Gender Norms Perceived?
DESCRIPTION:Actual and perceived gender norms are key to understanding gender inequality. Using newly-collected\, nationally representative datasets from 60 countries covering 80% of the world population\, this paper studies gender norms on two policy issues: basic rights\, allowing women to work outside of the home\, and affirmative action\, prioritizing women when hiring for leadership positions. Misperceptions of gender norms are pervasive across the world\, and the nature of the misperception is context-dependent. In less gender-equal countries\, people underestimate support for both policies\, particularly support among men\; in more gender-equal countries\, people overestimate support for affirmative action\, particularly support among women\, and underestimate support for basic rights. Gender stereotyping and overweighting of minority views are potential drivers of the global patterns of misperceptions. Our findings indicate how misperceptions of gender norms may obstruct progress toward gender equality and contribute to sustaining gender policies that are not necessarily favored by women.\n\n\nThis talk is presented by the Economic Development Seminar\, sponsored in part by the Department of Economics through a generous gift given by Jay and Beth Rakow. This talk is also sponsored by the International Policy Center at the Ford School.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MCAIM Series on Algorithm Startups
DESCRIPTION:Many do not realize the potential of mathematical and algorithmic ideas to have a societal impact through the commercial space. Mathematicians often receive advice tailored for other areas\, such as building physical objects\, consulting\, or general software development\, that may not apply. Additionally\, startups with sophisticated mathematical\, statistical\, or engineering algorithms may encounter unique problems. In this new colloquium series\, startup CEOs will discuss the story of their companies from seed to IPO stages and offer advice on building successful businesses based on mathematics or algorithms.\n\nDr. Walch is the CEO of Arcascope\, which makes science-backed apps to help people fix their sleep and circadian rhythms. She received her Ph.D in Applied Mathematics from the University of Michigan in 2016 and studied the mathematics of sleep for the last ten years. Outside of sleep\, she was co-editor of Political Geometry\, a volume on the mathematics of gerrymandering\, with Moon Duchin. Her webcomic\, Imogen Quest\, is available online\, as is her mini-comic You Can Try Again. \n\nEvent will be in-person and on Zoom:\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/98734707290\n\nCo-sponsored by Michigan Center for Applied and Interdisciplinary Mathematics (MCAIM)\, Michigan Innovation Partnerships\, and the Van Loo Symposium

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Biomedical Engineering Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nSleep apnea is associated with cardiovascular dysfunction which is linked to fatigability associated with activities of daily living. A well-established treatment modality (continuous positive airway pressure) is often ineffective in mitigating these co-morbidities. Thus\, the development of novel treatments to eliminate apnea and mitigate associated co-morbidities is imperative. We are addressing this mandate by determining if repeated exposure to mild intermittent hypoxia (MIH) mitigates cardiovascular dysfunction and enhances performance fatigability. We propose that exposure to MIH has a multipronged effect. MIH directly targets cardiovascular co-morbidities\, while simultaneously enhancing upper airway stability and increasing the arousal threshold. These modifications may serve to directly mitigate apnea. Alternatively\, these modifications may serve to improve treatment adherence with continuous positive airway pressure. Independent of its effect\, MIH may serve as an adjunctive therapy which provides another path to mitigating cardiovascular co-morbidities that might ultimately result in improvements in performance fatigability.\n\nBio:\nDr. Mateika is a respiratory physiologist who is presently investigating the impact of genetically or spinal cord injury induced reductions in central nervous system serotonin on mechanisms that influence breathing stability and cardiovascular/autonomic function in mice. Dr. Mateika is also exploring if repeated daily exposure to mild intermittent hypoxia independently or combined with continuous positive airway pressure mitigates co-morbidities (i.e. hypertension) linked to sleep apnea in humans.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Apalache? Appalachia?  The Talimali Band of  Apalachee Indians\,  Twenty-First Century Colonialism\, and the  Struggle for Tribal Sovereignty
DESCRIPTION:Colonial studies are often conducted within the “bubble” of academia and in isolation from the descendants of the communities most dramatically impacted by the ravages of colonialism. In this talk\, Kimberly C. Borchard (Randolph-Macon College) will discuss how her first monograph\, Appalachia as Contested Borderland of the Early Modern Atlantic\, 1528-1715\, in chronicling two centuries of atrocities committed against the Apalachee people and other Native societies of the American southeast\, led to a new project documenting Apalachee history since 1763. Through contact with living descendants of the people that first encountered Spanish gold-seekers in the Florida peninsula in the early sixteenth century\, Borchard has transitioned from purely historical research to contemporary advocacy for living members of the Apalachee tribe\, whose land claims and sovereignty continue to be systematically ignored by the U.S. government.\n\nKim Borchard earned her B.A. and M.A. from Ohio University and her Ph.D. from the University of Chicago. She teaches courses in Spanish\, Latin American colonial literature\, the social issues surrounding Latin American immigration to the U.S.\, and humor in Spanish at Randolph-Macon College in Ashland\, Virginia. Her first book\, Appalachia as Contested Borderland of the Early Modern Atlantic\, 1528-1715 explores the European obsession with Appalachian mineral resources from 1528 to 1715\, reframing Appalachian history within the fields of Latin American\, early American\, and Atlantic history. Her next book\, tentatively titled The Talimali Band the Apalachee Indians of Louisiana: The Struggle for Survival and Federal Reinstatement of One of America's Oldest Tribes\, 1763-2024\, will document the history of the Apalachee diaspora in Louisiana after the tribe's expulsion from Florida in 1704.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Javaad Alipoor and King Raam
DESCRIPTION:In the 1970s\, Fereydoun Farrokhzad was a significant cultural icon\, sex symbol\, and chart-topping pop singer whose music and television programs were heard and viewed by millions of Iranians. A decade later\, living in political exile in Germany\, he was found brutally murdered. \nThe murder\, still unsolved\, serves as the starting point for “Things Hidden Since the Foundation of the World\,” a new theatrical work by British-Iranian theater maker Javaad Alipoor\, featuring Iranian musician\, writer\, actor\, and podcast host King Raam. The show will be staged as part of the UMS season while this series event will bring Alipoor and Raam together to showcase their individual practices and a discussion of their collaboration and their common cultural background and influences.\nJavaad Alipoor is an artist\, writer\, and the Artistic Director of The Javaad Alipoor Company. He is a former ACE changemaker and was Resident Associate Director at Sheffield Theatres for their 2017/18 season\, and prior to this was Associate Director at Theatre in the Mill from 2015 to 2017. He was a founding member of the International Alliance in Support of Iranian Workers\, the Syria Solidarity Campaign\, and the Bradford-based pro-EU Migrant organization #BradfordSaysEveryoneStays. Alipoor’s writing about international politics\, cultural policy\, and art has been featured in The Guardian\, The Independent\, and The Stage. His plays are published by Oberon\, and his poetry by Art in Unusual Places.\nKing Raam started his musical career in the undergrounds of Tehran. With a great deal of international press behind his band\, including features in the New York Times\, MTV\, Billboard\, NPR\, CNN\, VICE\, NME and Vanity Fair\, Raam paved the way for a new generation of aspiring underground Iranian artists. Besides his live shows with his band\, Raam has also channeled his creative energy into a one man storytelling performance called “Departure” about his family&#039\;s experience of detainment and his father’s murder by the state\, woven together with his music.He also has a podcast in Persian called \"Masty o Rasty\,\" which translates to the Drunken Truth. Since its inception in 2020 the show has had over 40 million streams.\nThis event will be moderated by twenty-year veteran of NPR\, Neda Ulaby who reports on arts\, entertainment\, and cultural trends for NPR&#039\;s Arts Desk.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Qahwah & Authors Series: *Feeding Iran: Shi`i Families and the Making of the Islamic Republic*
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, November 9th\, 2023\, 6:00 PM ET\nKitab Cafe & Bookstore\, 2727 Holbrook Ave\, Hamtramck\, MI 48212\nRSVP: https://bit.ly/RWFeedingIran\n   \nJoin the University of Michigan Global Islamic Studies Center (GISC) and Rose Wellman\, associate professor of Anthropology and associate director of the Center for Arab American Studies (UM-Dearborn)\, for a book discussion on Iran\, food\, family\, and politics!\n   \nProfessor Wellman will be speaking about her book *Feeding Iran: Shi`i Families and the Making of the Islamic Republic* (University of California Press 2021). UM-Ann Arbor professor of anthropology Hakem Al-Rustom\, will be the discussant for this event. Refreshments will be provided!\n   \nAbout the book:\n   \nSince Iran's 1979 Revolution\, the imperative to create and protect the inner purity of family and nation in the face of outside spiritual corruption has been a driving force in national politics. Through extensive fieldwork\, Professor Rose Wellman examines how Basiji families\, as members of Iran's voluntary paramilitary organization\, encounter\, enact\, and challenge this imperative. Her ethnography reveals how families and state elites employ blood\, food\, and prayer in commemorations of martyrs in Islamic national rituals to create citizens who embody familial piety\, purity\, and closeness to God.\n   \n   *Feeding Iran: Shi`i Families and the Making of the Islamic Republic* provides a rare and humanistic account of religion and family life in the post-revolutionary Islamic Republic that examines how home life and everyday piety are linked to state power.\n   \nAbout the author:\n   \n   Rose Wellman is an anthropologist who specializes in Iran\, the Middle East\, and its diaspora\, including Arab Detroit. Her book *Feeding Iran: Shi’i Families and the Making of the Islamic Republic* draws from ethnographic research in Iran between 2007 and 2010 to explore how everyday family life and piety are linked to state power.

SUMMARY:Exercise / Fitness:Swing Ann Arbor Swing II: November Swingout Bootcamp
DESCRIPTION:WHAT: It’s back again for a second month! In this course\, we will build on the Lindy Hop essentials of Swing I and learn how to do a swingout. Swingouts are a fundamental (and by far the most recognizable) move of Lindy Hop! They require dancers to hone their connection with a partner and can lay the groundwork for many new moves. We will dedicate most of the time in this class to cleaning up the swingouts you will learn in the first few weeks. We will also focus on musicality and teach you a few fun swingout variations (time permitting).  COURSE PREREQUISITES: Swing I or equivalent. You should feel comfortable switching between 6-count and 8-count Lindy Hop\, have experience with some basic variations (e.g. yoyos\, Lindy circles)\, and feel confident about your musicality and connection. We will not expect you to know how to do a swingout yet – we will teach you to do one! WHEN: 7:30pm-8:30pm on Thursdays (11/2\, 11/9\, 11/16\, 11/30) WHERE: Mason Hall Room 1401\, University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor  INSTRUCTORS: Sarah Redman & Steve Losh  PRICING:General Admission 4-Week Pass: $40SAA Member 4-Week Pass: $30Individual Class: $12Acceptable forms of payment: cash\, check\, or PayPal REGISTRATION: Please register in advance by filling out this short form: https://tinyurl.com/SAANovProgressives\

SUMMARY:Performance:Antje Duvekot & Joe Crookston
DESCRIPTION:Wonderful songwriters from the Northeastern scene\n\nA former Artist-in-Residence at Folk Alliance International\, Joe Crookston of Ithaca\, New York\, is an artist\, writer\, singer\, guitar picker\, painter\, clawhammer banjo player\, eco-village member and believer in all things possible. You'll be pulled in by the magic and musical world he creates\, and you'll end up in the moment\, humming and buzzing with the rest of the crowd. He'll sing to you—you'll sing with him. He's plumbing for lyrical gold\, like some kind of social archaeologist. Joe's story songs are universal\, masterful and his concerts are a grand celebration of all of us. Come to a show … you'll ride along mystical\, historical\, and humorous roads\, and twist through personal stories along the way—stories of amber eyes\, Oklahoma towns\, rattlesnake tails\, Grandmother Moons\, Galway heather\, meter maids and silver crowns. At the end of the night\, you'll leave inspired\, with a renewed sense of what's possible. \n\nNew England folk institution Ellis Paul has called Antje Duvekot (say AUNT-yuh DOO-va-kott) the next great American folk singer-songwriter. Born in Germany\, Antje immigrated to the U.S. as a teen. Following the path of Natalie Merchant\, Dar Williams\, and Patty Griffin\, she developed a sound all her own. The Boston Globe says that her \"provocative\, dark-eyed ballads are becoming the talk of the folk world.\" Antje is a winner of the prestigious Kerrville Folk Festival's Best New Folk Award\, and the Boston Music Award for Outstanding Folk Act. Antje has extensive touring experience\, criss-crossing the U.S. and Europe many times. She is a compelling live performer and has been invited to play some of the top festivals including The Newport Folk Festival as well as the Mountain Stage\, Philadelphia and Kerrville Festivals. Internationally\, she's headlined the The Celtic Connections Festival in Scotland and the Tonder Festival in Denmark.\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4278/4279 for more detail.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manga no Ryokou: The “Manga Map” and A Journey Through the Art of Depiction in Japanese Cartography
DESCRIPTION:The exhibit examines the intersection between art\, narrative\, and geography within Japanese cartography. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Shadow and Light : Solidarity and Connection with Iraqi Academics
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit incorporates a selection of work from the Shadow and Light project\, an initiative memorializing Iraqi academics assassinated between 2003-2013\, a timeframe which roughly parallels the US-led invasion and occupation of Iraq. \n\nParticipants from around the world — including Iraqis in diaspora — contributed photographs and personal statements responding to the loss of a particular Iraqi academic listed by the Spanish Campaign against the Occupation and for the Sovereignty of Iraq (La Campaña Estatal contra la Ocupación y por la Soberanía de Iraq / IraqSolidaridad 2005-2013). \n\nThe project emerges from a broader effort undertaken by Iraqis and allies to document the assault on Iraqi scholars\, intellectuals\, and cultural institutions which flared in the wake of the destruction and division wrought by the US-led invasion and occupation. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Sentimental Archive: Remembering Nubia through Salvage Anthropology
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit showcases select photographs from The American University in Cairo’s Rare Books and Special Collections Library taken by the renowned Egyptian photographer Abd al-Fattah Eid as well as by the Cairo-born Swiss artist Margo Veillon.\n\nIn 1964\, the construction of the Aswan High Dam displaced Nubians from their ancestral villages along the banks of the Nile in Egypt. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:WCEE Exhibition. 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. She is also the art director of the “Ukrainian Unofficial” research project\, which compiles archives of Ukrainian unofficial art of the second half of the twentieth century.\n\nArtist website: https://www.flickr.com/photos/196914550@N02/albums\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:BREATHE
DESCRIPTION:The Residential College Art Gallery will present BREATHE\, an exhibition of illuminated ceramics by Ann Arbor artist Kate Tremel\, from October 20 through November 21.  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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Digital Engrams
DESCRIPTION:The notion that our brains actually create memories first stored and then revisited has been contemplated since the time of Plato and Aristotle. These units of memory\, or engrams\, are poetic portals through which we time travel\, gaining hindsight and foresight\, more meaning and greater wisdom\, and hopes for a future less encumbered. Beyond reminiscences of technicolor sunsets\, perhaps memories are simply the brain's records of endless repetitions and familiar neural pathways.\n\nIn an era of iPhones\, Macbooks\, Instagram\, and Facebook\, everything that’s happened to us in recent memory is at our immediate disposal and made to look better than the original … every day of every year\, every meal of every trip\, every postcard destination. With constant 24/7 access to the newsreel of our own lives\, are we losing our innate ability to remember what matters in the process? \n\nIn Digital Engrams\, L.A. artist Gabriela Ruiz combines sound\, video\, light and sculpture to create unexpected environments that challenge our sensibilities. The installation considers how images function on and off the screen\, and how memories real and curated are the crux of personal and cultural identity. Who do we think we are in this life or the eternal life on the internet hereafter? \n\nRuiz’s spatial inquiries grapple with the potential erasure of the rituals of memorialization and the richness of material culture so important in her own Latinx heritage and to her sense of self.\n\n–Amanda Krugliak\, IH Arts Curator\n\nAbout the artist:\nGabriela Ruiz is a self-taught artist whose practice blends diverse forms of expression and media\, including sculpture\, video\, painting\, and apparel design. Her sculptures incorporate found objects and industrial materials\, such as thrift store furniture and insulation foam. Strongly influenced by growing up in L.A.’s San Fernando Valley to immigrant parents from Mexico\, Ruiz’s practice is a reflection of the DIY work ethic she was raised under\, the vibrancy of Mexican cultural and artistic traditions\, and her exposure to subculture and fantasy at a young age as a means to escape the realities of daily life.\n\nOne of L.A.’s rising young talents\, she presented her solo show Stream at the Palm Springs Art Museum in 2022\, part of the museum's Outburst project.\n\n*Gabriela Ruiz is the Jean Yokes Woodhead Visiting Artist at the Institute for the Humanities. This exhibition is part of LSA's fall 2023 Art & Resistance theme semester.*

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Holding Places Exhibition by Satchel Lee
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Hours: Mon-Fri\, 9 am-5 pm or by appointment: serrag@med.umich.edu\nBorn and raised in New York City\, Satchel Lee is a multi-media artist whose work can best be described as portraiture. Through collaborations with her immediate community\, and also using herself as a subject\, Lee draws inspiration from the quotidian\, creating offbeat images that aim to preserve this moment in time\, (re) examine memories (especially those clouded by confusion) all the while asking questions around identity and existence.\n\nLee holds a BFA from the Maurice Kanbar Institute of Film and Television at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts. She is currently pursuing her MFA in Photography at School of the Art Institute of Chicago.\n\nIn Lee’s photographic exploration\, she investigates the profound connection between places and structures and the echoes of trauma that inhabit them. “Holding Places” is an exhibition that immerses viewers into a visual narrative\, inviting them to witness the power of space as holders and conduits for personal memory.\n\nBy reconstructing these places by hand in model scale and rendering them not as they were\, but how she experienced them\, she is able to navigate intimate details and hidden narratives that exist within them. The process of crafting these miniatures becomes a meditative contemplation\, giving Lee time to sit and reflect on these past events.\n\nThrough Lee’s lens\, they capture the visual manifestations of the ghosts of the past. The photographs offer glimpses into spaces where anguish\, conflict and distress have left their imprints\, sometimes visible\, sometimes buried beneath layers of time (and self preservation).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Illustrating the Renaissance Book: From Illumination to Woodcut
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy a selection of manuscripts and early printed books from the 15th to the 17th centuries that were illustrated with illuminations and woodcuts. 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:Complete conference details and the program of events are available at https://myumi.ch/W23nX.\n\nAttend in person or attend via Zoom at https://myumi.ch/8ebxM.\n\nOrganizers:\n\nHilary Finchum-Sung (Nam Center for Korean Studies\, University of Michigan/Association for Asian Studies)\n\nYoungju Ryu (Department of Asian Languages and Cultures\, University of Michigan)\n\nThe concept of ‘Korean Music’ conjures many things: Kpop\, pungmulnori ensembles on university campuses\, stately court orchestras and dance\, the lullabies and wails of the folk experience… there is so much\, and its routes and evolutions are countless and astounding. The title of the 2-day conference\, part of the Nam Center’s Perspectives on Contemporary Korea conference series\, references the visceral\, emotional experiences embedded in and conjured by Korean music performance across many eras\, genres\, and locations. In the 21st century\, Korean music defies geopolitical boundaries and the confines of genre as artists draw on their own experiences and communities to express the lived realities of the contemporary Korean experience. The music we explore in this symposium is inclusive of long-standing traditions and new creations on the Korean peninsula\, music performance in the Diaspora\, and collaborations drawing and expanding upon Korean musical aesthetics. The participants in this two-day event will explore the many notions of Korean music on and beyond the Korean peninsula\, through space and time\, and reimagined via multiple encounters and experiences.\n\nThis event will be a combination of traditional paper presentation\, roundtables\, and workshops. There will also be at least two performances during the two-day event. The event will be free & open to the public. Attendance will be available both in-person and virtual.\n\nThis event is a program feature of the U-M Fall 2023 Festival of Asian Music. https://smtd.umich.edu/asian-music-festival/

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Sarah Buckius: !!!techn010ffspring!!!
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.

DESCRIPTION:Attend in person or on Zoom at https://myumi.ch/967mE\n\nTo mark the centennial year of the founding of the Turkish republic\, WATS (the Workshop on Armenian and Turkish Scholarship) has decided to organize an eleventh workshop at the University of Michigan in the fall of 2023 under the auspices of the Center for Armenian Studies.\n\n   Marking the centenary of the founding of the Republic of Turkey\, our conference aims to bring a critical perspective on the process of making states that involved ethnic cleansing or genocide. Few modern states are free of dark histories of exclusion\, forced assimilation\, or more sanguinary solutions to the remnants of imperial diversity. Investigating states that were founded on dispossession of indigenous peoples\, we examine the Turkish past and the histories of the United States\, Israel\, and Australia\, among others. Turkey is not unique\, but its achievement in ridding Anatolia of Armenians and Assyrians\, like the removal of Native Americans from continental United States\, was admired by and positively referred to by Adolph Hitler as he planned his own genocidal policies in the lands to the east of Germany.\n\n   Our conference examines the ideological and strategic choices made by Ottoman and Turkish nationalist leaders as they attempted to “modernize” their states through coercive demographic policies and the deployment of violence\, which became enshrined as part of the repertoire of governance in the Kemalist state. Having eliminated the bulk of Christians\, the heirs of the Ottomans repressed their former allies\, the Kurds\, turning what they conceived as a homogeneous ethnic nation-state into a mini-imperial state colonizing its non-Turkish subjects.\n   \nJust as the controversial 1619 Project in the United States has contested the origins of the American republic by seeking its beginnings with the first importation of African slaves\, rather than the revolutionary events of 1776\, so shall this workshop explore the formative events and processes from the initiation of systemic reforms in the Ottoman Empire in 1789\, through the Tanzimat reforms of 1839 and 1876\, the coup d’état of 1908 and the Armenian Genocide of 1915-1916\, to the 1918 fall of the empire\, the 1919-1922 rise of the Kemalist nationalist movement\, and the 1923 founding of the Republic of Turkey.\n\nFor the schedule of events\, visit https://ii.umich.edu/armenian/news-events/all-events/workshops/november-2023-from-the-foundational-crime.html\n\n---\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at armenianstudies@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Consequences of Natural Disasters:\\ The Impact of Hurricane Harvey on Local Retail and Consumer Welfare
DESCRIPTION:We examine the impact of Hurricane Harvey on retail businesses and consumers. Using granular data on flooding and card expenditures\, we show that Harvey-induced flooding caused a modest increase in establishment exit. Using a model of consumer demand\, we find that Harvey-induced exits reduced consumer welfare by less than 2% on average\, but that welfare decreased by more than 12% in the hardest-hit census tracts. We discuss how to optimally allocate business aid after natural disasters.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Featured Exhibits
DESCRIPTION:Featuring work by Gina Gibson\, UN/EARTH explores science and art from a mile underground. 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.

DESCRIPTION:Stop by the Collections Case display in the museum’s main atrium\, behind the mastodons\, to see Nature’s Pharmacy.\n\nAugust 2023–July 2024\n\nPlants and fungi play a vital role in medicine due to the diversity of chemical defense mechanisms they evolved to safeguard them against pathogens\, herbivores\, and competitors. 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.

DESCRIPTION:Stop by the Student Showcase display in the museum’s main atrium\, behind the mastodons\, to see Molecules of Life.\n\nAugust 2023–July 2024\n\nMolecules of Life (Student Showcase)\nDiscover the connection between form and function as you explore the molecular building blocks of life. 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.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Seminar Series: Yufeng Liu\, Professor\, Department of Statistics\, Operations Research\, Genetics\, and Biostatistics\, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Clustering serves as a fundamental tool for exploratory data analysis\, but a key challenge lies in determining the reliability of the clusters identified by these methods\, differentiating them from artifacts resulting from natural sampling variations. In this talk\, I will present statistical significance of clustering (SigClust) as a cluster evaluation tool for high dimensional data. To begin\, we define a cluster as data originating from a single Gaussian distribution and frame the assessment of statistical significance of clustering as a formal testing procedure. Addressing the challenge of high-dimensional covariance estimation in SigClust\, we employ a combination of invariance principles and a factor analysis model. I'll also discuss an enhanced SigClust using multidimensional scaling (MDS)  on dissimilarity matrices. SigClust for hierarchical clustering will be presented as well.  Simulations and real data\, including cancer subtype analysis\, validate SigClust's effectiveness in assessing clustering significance.\n\n\nhttps://yfliu.web.unc.edu/

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:DSI Esports Symposium | #TechFail: From Intersectional (In)Accessibility to Inclusive Design
DESCRIPTION:This talk provides an exploration into the (in)accessibility of gaming technologies\, most notably the Xbox Kinect. While the gaming world remarked on the possibilities created when the body becomes the controller\, many Black gamers illustrated the centrality of race in deciding who can (and cannot) participate in this technological potential.\n Microsoft’s introductory video for the Kinect was met with extreme enthusiasm by gamers. However\, the cinematic trailers previewed during my ethnographic observations illustrate the landscape in which the Kinect was built\, highlighting the pervasiveness of whiteness at the core of this technology. In the video\, we meet a white family using the Kinect and exploring the possibilities therein. Later\, we are introduced to a black family\, but their few seconds on-screen confirm the process of “adding and stirring\,” or incorporating diverse bodies in limited ways\, hoping that their screen time will be enough for the diversity checkboxes.\n While my observational narratives introduce readers to gaming tech’s limited potential and its inaccessibility\, this talk also illustrates the possibilities that appear when inclusivity is at the core of design. Thus this talk will provide an intersectional exploration into (in)accessible gaming technologies\, and morphs into a discussion of inclusive design\, highlighting various design approaches to increasing accessibility in gaming technologies.  I consider how accessibility in technology affects marginalized users’ adoption of technologies.\n\nDr. Kishonna Gray is an Associate Professor of Writing\, Rhetoric\, & Digital Studies and Africana Studies at the University of Kentucky. She is also a faculty associate at the Berkman-Klein Center at Harvard University.\nDr Gray is the author or co-editor of numerous books and articles including her foundational 2014 work Race\, Gender\, & Deviance in Xbox Live: Theoretical Perspectives from the Virtual Margins\, 2018’s edited collections Woke Gaming and Feminism in Play (from our very own University of Washington press) and most recently Intersectional Tech: Black Users in Digital Gaming.\nShe also has a book currently under contract with NYU Press entitled Black Game Studies.\nShe’s a highly sought after speaker and regularly addresses both academic and industry audiences such as at the Game Developers Conference. She is the winner of a number awards over the years including The Evelyn Gilbert Unsung Hero Award and the Blacks in Gaming Educator Award.\nWe want to make our events accessible to all participants.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Respond/ Resist/ Rethink 2023
DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with the Fall 2023 Theme Semester: Arts &amp\; Resistance\, Stamps Gallery is partnering with the U‑M Arts Initiative to expand the 4th annual Respond/Resist/Rethink student art exhibition. All undergraduate and graduate students enrolled at the Ann Arbor\, Dearborn\, or Flint U-M campuses in Fall 2023 are invited to apply to this juried exhibition that explores what can be done to create more just and equitable futures in the 21st Century and beyond.\n The 2023 exhibition will include art of a variety of mediums and will be displayed in four galleries across all three U-M campuses\, including Stamps Gallery (Central Campus\, Ann Arbor)\, Duderstadt Center Gallery (North Campus\, Ann Arbor)\, Riverbank Arts (Flint)\, and Stamelos Gallery (Dearborn). \nThe arts play a central role in shaping cultural and political narratives. Artists\, designers and creatives of diverse backgrounds have been at the forefront of social change by offering alternate models and ways of thinking\, making and creating that do not perpetuate dominant regimes. Creative processes have been used time and again to reveal under-told stories and to resist simple narratives. Regardless of one&#039\;s personal politics\, an artwork&#039\;s potential to change hearts and minds is urgent and necessary. \nRespond/ Resist/ Rethink invites students to leverage their creativity to (re)imagine what they can do to create a more just and equitable community in the spaces that they inhabit.\nThroughout the spring\, summer\, and fall of 2023\, U-M students submitted artworks through an open call process. A final list of artworks were chosen for the exhibition by a Selection Committee made up of U-M faculty\, staff\, and students. \n\nThe 2023 RRR Selection Committee members are: \nPedram Baldari\, Jim Cogswell\, Laura Cotton\, Nalani Duarte\, Adrienne Frank\, Benjamin Gaydos\, Kathryn Grabowski-Khairullah\, Quinn Hunter\, Ikalanni Jahi\, Jennifer Junkermeier-Khan\, Joe Levickas\, Srimoyee Mitra\, Kathi Reister\, Chloe Schans\, and Grace Sirman. \nThe 2023 RRR Curatorial Committee members are: \nLaura Cotton\, Nalani Duarte\, Benjamin Gaydos\, Kathryn Grabowski-Khairullah\, Srimoyee Mitra\, and Kathi Reister. \nThe 2023 RRR Organizing Committee members are: Chris Audain\, Adrienne Frank\, Kathryn Grabowski-Khairullah\, Jennifer Junkermeier-Khan\, Joe Levickas\, Srimoyee Mitra\, and Joe Rohrer.

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.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:\"Again What Speaks of Speaking: Discrepant Metaphysics in Nathaniel Mackey's Long Song\"
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a discussion of U-M English PhD candidate Deven Philbrick's dissertation chapter\, \"Again What Speaks of Speaking: Discrepant Metaphysics in Nathaniel Mackey's Long Song.\" You can sign up to receive the chapter and RSVP for the workshop here: https://forms.gle/J5bLEeA4gDw258tH8. A light lunch will be served. \n\nAbstract:\nIn his seminal 1993 text Discrepant Engagement: Dissonance\, Cross-Culturality and Experimental Writing\, Nathaniel Mackey proposes a mode of critical reading that\, \"rather than suppressing resonance\, dissonance\, noise\, seeks to remain open to them.\" This kind of engagement\, from which the book takes its title\, proceeds by combination of materials our disciplines have not normally grouped under a common rubric. Discrepant engagement is more than mere pluralism--more\, that is\, than an openness to variety regarding objects of scholarly reflection. It is\, rather\, a rigorous method of scholarly oscillation\, mixing\, and layering\, whereby new creative possibilities are systematically opened up. In this chapter\, I have two main contentions. First\, I argue that Mackey's concept of discrepant engagement implies a certain metaphysical outlook\, derived from a wide range of sources\, including process philosophy\, deconstruction\, postcolonial thought\, quantum mechanics\, Rastafari\, Sufi\, and Dogon religious practice\, the poetics of projective verse\, and African American musical tradition\, among too many others to list. Second\, I argue that this metaphysical outlook governs the technical and conceptual innovations of Mackey's poetry. Mackey\, as poet-metaphysician\, offers a way of re-conceiving being\, figuring it as \"vibrational\, rather than corpuscular\,\" and in so doing\, provides a model of poetic understanding with implications for both scholarly and poetic practice.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:A thermodynamic and molecular model for ion channel and transporter dimerization in membranes
DESCRIPTION:Ion channels and transporters are the molecular gatekeepers of biology\, governing the passage of atoms and molecules in and out of cells. They provide essential nutrients for metabolism\, eliminate waste\, enable cell-to-cell communication\, and store the potential energy that fuels life. Yet\, despite their overwhelming importance\, we still lack a physical and molecular understanding of why membrane transport proteins form stable structures that enable their specific functions within the oil-filled environment of the lipid bilayer. Our lack of understanding here is well rationalized by the inherent challenge of measuring equilibrium reactions of membrane protein assembly in membranes\, compounded by the complexity of the reaction solvent as a structured lipid bilayer. However\, through a combination of novel experimental single-molecule microscopy approaches coupled with coarse-grained and all-atom computational modeling\, we can now measure equilibrium constants of protein association in membranes and dissect out the important molecular contributions from the protein and surrounding membrane. Here\, I present our results on two systems where reversible binding within membranes can be quantitatively assessed - the homodimeric CLC-ec1 chloride/proton antiporter and the dual-topology homodimeric Fluc fluoride ion channel. By combining experimental and computational studies\, we identify a driving force for protein association that arises from state-dependent perturbation of the membrane structure\, and a mechanism for tuning dimerization stability by altering solvation energetics through preferential solvation. These results present a generalizable driving force for membrane protein assembly in membranes that is expected to apply to all ion channels and transporters.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:BLI Lunch and Learn: The Power of Beliefs
DESCRIPTION:Zingermans has been an iconic Ann Arbor institution for over 40 years\, but the company is so much more than just delicious sandwiches. They are leaders in the community and food service industry\, founders of a nonprofit food rescue program and food bank\, and deliver the Zingermans experience in eleven different businesses with roughly $70\,000\,000 in annual sales. All while staying true to their beliefs.\n\nAlthough most of us don’t realize it\, our beliefs have a major impact on how things go in our lives. What we believe may or may not be true\, but unknowingly most of us will behave in ways that reinforce our beliefs anyway. In this workshop\, keynote\, Ari Weinzweig\, Cofounding Partner of Zingerman’s Community of Businesses\, will take a look at how the impact of those beliefs likely plays out in our day-to-day experiences\, and how our workplaces\, social circles\, and we are impacted by those beliefs. Whether we accept it or not\, what we believe about ourselves\, our organization\, our co-workers\, our boss\, the work that we do and our ability to do it will significantly alter the outcomes we are seeking to achieve. And how\, by becoming more mindful of our beliefs\, we can effectively backtrack— by altering our beliefs\, we change the way we see our work and the world and then\, in turn\, significantly alter the outcomes we get from our efforts. \n\nAri Weinzweig\n\nAri Weinzweig is CEO and co-founding partner of Zingerman’s Community of Businesses\, which includes Zingerman's Delicatessen\, Bakehouse\, Creamery\, Catering\, Mail Order\, ZingTrain\, Coffee Company\, Roadhouse\, Candy Manufactory\, Events at Cornman Farms\, Miss Kim\, and Zingerman’s Food Tours.\n\nZingerman’s produces\, sells\, and serves all sorts of full flavored\, traditional foods in its home of Ann Arbor\, Michigan to the tune of $70\,000\,000 a year in annual sales. Ari was recognized as one of the “Who’s Who of Food & Beverage in America” by the 2006 James Beard Foundation and has awarded a Bon Appétit Lifetime Achievement Award\, among many recognitions. Ari is the author of a number of articles and books\, including Zingerman’s Guide to Good Eating\, Zingerman’s Guide to Better Bacon\, Zingerman’s Guide to Giving Great Service\, Zingerman’s Guide to Good Leading\, Part 1: A Lapsed Anarchist’s Approach to Building a Great Business\, Zingerman's Guide to Good Leading\, Part 2: A Lapsed Anarchist’s Approach to Being a Better Leader\, Zingerman's Guide to Good Leading\, Part 3: A Lapsed Anarchist's Approach to Managing Ourselves\, Zingerman's Guide to Good Leading\, and Part 4: A Lapsed Anarchist's Approach to the Power of Beliefs in Business.\n\nIn 2017\, Ari was named one of “The World's 10 Top CEOs (They Lead in a Totally Unique Way)” by Inc. Magazine. In 2018\, he released the pamphlet\, “The Art of Business: Why I Want to be an Artist.” Another pamphlet\, “Going into Business with Emma Goldman” came out in June\, 2019. “Humility: A Humble\, Anarchistic Inquiry” came out in October\, 2020. “Working Through Hard Times: Life and Leadership Learnings from 2020” was published in the first weeks of 2021 and “The Story of Visioning at Zingerman’s: Four Visions\, Forty Years\, and a Positive Look Towards the Future\,” came out in the spring of 2022. Ari’s most recent work\, “A Taste of Zingerman’s Food Philosophy: Forty Years of Mindful Cooking and Eating\,” was published in April of 2023.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Respond/Resist/Rethink
DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with the Fall 2023 Theme Semester: Arts & Resistance and the U‑M Arts Initiative. The 2023 Respond/Resist/Rethink exhibition will include art of a variety of mediums and will be displayed in four galleries across all three U‑M campuses\, including Stamps Gallery (Central Campus\, Ann Arbor)\, Duderstadt Center Gallery (North Campus\, Ann Arbor)\, Riverbank Arts (Flint)\, and Stamelos Gallery (Dearborn).\n\nThe arts play a central role in shaping cultural and political narratives. Artists\, designers and creatives of diverse backgrounds have been at the forefront of social change. Creative processes have been used time and again to reveal under-told stories and to resist simple narratives. Regardless of one’s personal politics\, an artwork’s potential to change hearts and minds is urgent and necessary. Respond/​Resist/​Rethink invites students to leverage their creativity to (re)imagine what they can do to create a more just and equitable community in the spaces that they inhabit.\n\nNote: The Duderstadt Center will close slightly earlier\, on Dec 1.\nDuderstadt Center Gallery Hours: Noon-6pm Tues-Fri\, Noon-6pm Sunday

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:A Platform Rating System and Vulnerable Workers: Evidence from Field Experiments in Singapore
DESCRIPTION:How to enhance the working conditions and wellbeing of vulnerable workers is a topic of growing importance. This study examines the use of two-sided labor market platforms as a private governance solution to protect vulnerable workers in contexts where the power dynamics between employers and workers are highly unequal. Specifically\, we collaborated with a Singapore-based online platform that connects foreign domestic workers with employers (families). In this setting\, it is not uncommon for workers to be mistreated by employers via various forms of exploitation and abuse. The collaborating platform was interested in exploring whether introducing a new rating system that allows workers to rate employers could improve this situation for workers. Accordingly\, we randomized communication about such a rating system and examined how each side of the platform reacted. We found that employers did not respond positively to the rating system\, though their negative reaction was offset if they were nudged to consider the instrumental benefits of the intervention for them. Surprisingly\, workers also disliked the idea of the rating system\, despite it being intended to protect and empower them. Post-hoc analysis and interviews suggest that the most vulnerable workers were particularly concerned about the employer-rating system. Our paper illustrates that\, in settings with large power differentials\, platform governance mechanisms intended to help vulnerable workers could have unintended negative consequences. It thus highlights the importance of understanding the nuanced determinants of vulnerable workers’ challenges when considering whether platform governance might improve or exacerbate them.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Contrapuntal Humanism: Fugitive Writing from the Post-Holocaust Diaspora
DESCRIPTION:\"Almost counter-intuitively\, considering the tremendous destruction wrought by acts of state-sponsored violence under the Nazi regime\, post-Holocaust literature often cleaves to an ideal of humanism\, even as it simultaneously exposes the concept’s fragility\, paradoxes and limitations. Peripatetic literary and cultural critic Edward Said’s evocative use of the term “contrapuntal” provides a productive point of departure for considering charged scenes of fugitivity captured by Jewish diasporic voices that challenge and reconfigure humanist conceits. (Here\, specifically writings by H.G. Adler\, survivor and chronicler of Theresienstadt\; and by psychoanalyst-psychiatrist\, poet\, and novelist Hans Keilson).\"\n\nAnna Parkinson is Associate Professor in the Department of German\, a Core Member of the Critical Theory Program\, and an affiliate of the Gender and Sexuality Studies Program and the Jewish Studies Program at Northwestern University.\n\nQ&A to follow\n\nPart of the Grilk Lecture Series

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:AIM Seminar / MCAIM Colloquium: Cars\, Steaks\, and Hurricanes: A General Bayesian Approach to Inverse Problems
DESCRIPTION:The inverse problem of determining information about the state of a physical system from observations of its behavior is fundamental to scientific inference and engineering design. Frequently\, this can be formulated as computing a probability measure on physical characteristics of a system from observed data on the output of a model of system behavior. In abstract terms\, this is the empirical stochastic inverse problem for a random vector on a probability space with an unknown probability measure. Over the last fifteen years\, collaborators and I have developed a general Bayesian approach to the formulation and solution of this problem. Our approach has a solid theoretical foundation that avoids alterations of the model like regularization as well as unrealistic and limiting assumptions about prior knowledge of system characteristics\, allows for numerical solution by a novel importance sampling approach\, and provides a platform to address critical issues arising in the practical application to scientific and engineering problems. I will lay out the theoretical and computational foundation of our approach with the details motivated by practical applications including optimizing car mileage\, cooking steaks\, hurricane storm surge forecasting\, and forecasting COVID surges. Time permitting\, I will discuss the relationship with common Bayesian statistics.\n\nSpeaker Bio:  Don Estep is the Director of the Canadian Statistical Sciences Institute and is Canada Research Chair in Computational Probability and Uncertainty Quantification in the Department of Statistics and Actuarial Science at Simon Fraser University.\n\nTalk will be in-person and on Zoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/98734707290\n\n[Contact:  R.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Combinatorics Seminar -- The totally nonnegative tropical flag variety
DESCRIPTION:The flag variety of rank r=(r_1\,...\,r_k) has points corresponding to collections of subspaces (V_1\,...\,V_k) with V_i of dimension r_i such that V_i is contained in V_{i+1}. It can be embedded into a multi-projective space\, where it is cut out by the incidence Plücker relations. We explore two extensions of this variety: First\, we study the nonnegative flag variety\, which corresponds to a subset of the flag variety consisting of flags that can be represented by totally positive matrices. Second\, we study the tropicalization of the flag variety and\, more specifically\, its nonnegative part. In both cases\, we provide equivalent descriptions of these spaces for flag varieties of rank r=(a\,a+1\,...\,b)\, where r consists of consecutive integers. We also explore descriptions of the nonnegative tropical flag variety in terms of polytopal subdivisions. This talk is based on joint work with Chris Eur and Lauren Williams.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Department Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:Title: Social Relationalism and the Problem of Grid Collision  \n\nAbstract: The problem of grid collision is the problem of saying what social status someone has when they are classified in different ways by different schemes. Suppose that Sam is Black by US standards but White by Brazilian standards. What is Sam’s race? We need to avoid the conclusion that they are both Black (since the US view is not in error) and not Black (since the Brazilian view is not in error either)\, and in general we need a consistent way to assign social statuses when grids collide. Enter the social relationalist. Social relationalism is the view that social statuses are not simple monadic properties but rather dyadic relations to social rules. For the social relationalist\, there is no simple monadic property of being Black (/White) for Sam to have. Rather Sam is a person who is both racialized as Black relative to the US one drop rule\, and also racialized as White relative to Brazilian appearance-based rules. These are consistent relational statuses. More generally—the social relationalist concludes—we are all persons who are racialized\, gendered\, and otherwise classified in various ways only relative to various grids.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:HET Seminar | The Geometry of Electroweak Symmetry Breaking
DESCRIPTION:Effective field theories (EFTs) suffer from a vast redundancy of description\, reminiscent of coordinate invariance\, that lends itself to a geometric treatment. In this talk I’ll survey recently-developed geometric insights into EFTs of the Standard Model Higgs sector\, including invariant distinctions between possible EFTs of the Higgs boson\, a new understanding of the connection between EFT geometry and observables\, and generalizations of Riemannian field space geometry that encode information about analyticity and unitarity of the EFT. These developments are relevant to ongoing searches at the LHC and sharpen an open question for future colliders: is electroweak symmetry linearly realized by the known particles of the Standard Model?

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture - Dr. David Peterman\, Penn State University
DESCRIPTION:The opportunities presented by swimming have considerably shaped the evolution of life on our planet. All life\, extinct and extant\, must abide by the same physical laws. Through an understanding of these physical properties\, we can place quantitative constraints on the life habits and ecological roles of extinct organisms. Open-source tools and other emerging technologies can help answer broad questions in paleobiology by enabling detailed reconstructions of fossils and the biomechanical properties of their once-living counterparts. This talk will focus on using such an approach (involving computer modeling\, robotics\, and other tools) to investigate the aquatic biomechanics of a model system spanning ~0.5 billion years – the externally shelled cephalopods (i.e.\, ammonoids and nautiloids). The evolutionary history of these animals\, and their hydromechanical properties\, illuminate unique solutions to the obstacles presented by aquatic locomotion\, involving buoyancy\, stability\, maneuverability\, control\, and locomotive efficiency. These form-function relationships add context to early benthic-nektic transitions and various marine radiations\, while highlighting fundamental constraints on aquatic locomotion more broadly.
