SUMMARY:Fair / Festival:CGIS Virtual Study Abroad Fair
DESCRIPTION:Study abroad is not just for juniors. It's not just for language and international studies majors. It's not just for students from certain communities or socioeconomic backgrounds. No matter who you are\, where you come from\, or what you’re studying\, a study abroad experience is available to you during your time at Michigan.\n\nWhether you want to develop the skills you’ll need to compete in a global economy\, cultivate your language competencies\, or build meaningful connections with people from around the world\, this is the best time in your life for a global experience.\n\nStudying abroad often proves to be a pivotal experience\, but deciding which program is the best fit can be daunting as you consider questions such as: How will this enhance my course of study? When should I go? For how long? Where? Can I afford it? How do I prepare? Will my credits transfer? The CGIS Study Abroad Virtual Fair is the best time to get all of your questions answered!\n\nDuring the day of the virtual fair\, you'll have instant access to academic advisors\, education abroad advisors\, Office of Financial Aid & LSA Scholarship Office representatives\, and program representatives as well as scheduled events throughout the fair!

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Looking at Naturalist Fiction and the I-Novel Transnationally
DESCRIPTION:After the naturalist approach to writing fiction crystallized in France in the 1860s\, writers around the world embraced it. By the 1920s this kind of realistic fiction could be found from the Americas to East Asia\, including the Japanese version known as the I-novel. Far from a story of influence\, a close look at naturalist novels and stories written in different parts of the world shows writers departing from metropolitan models as they confronted new social conditions.\n   \nChristopher Hill is Associate Professor of Japanese Literature in the department of Asian Languages and Cultures. With a background in comparative literature\, he writes frequently on literature and intellectual history from a transnational or global perspective. His first book\, *National History and the World of Nations* (Duke University Press\, 2009)\, was on the impact of nationalism on historical writing in late nineteenth-century Japan\, France\, and the United States. He has just published *Figures of the World: The Naturalist Novel and Transnational Form* (Northwestern University Press\, 2020)\, on the global history of naturalist fiction. He is currently writing about postwar Japanese writers' responses to the decolonization of Africa and Asia.\n\nDiscussant: Christi Merrill\, Associate Professor of Comparative Literature\; Associate Professor of South Asian Literature and Postcolonial Theory.\n\nPlease register for the Zoom webinar at: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_7XkNE5-uSRSBcB9uuBkggw\n\nThe University of Michigan Library has Professor Hill's book\, *Figures of the World The Naturalist Novel and Transnational Form*\, available in E-book format at: https://search.lib.umich.edu/catalog/record/018261248\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:SEMINAR: \"Measuring and Mitigating Challenges for Future Human Spaceflight Missions\" — Allison Anderson
DESCRIPTION:The Departmental Seminar Series is open to all. U-M Industrial and Operations Engineering graduate students and faculty are especially encouraged to attend.\n\nTitle:\nMeasuring and Mitigating Challenges for Future Human Spaceflight Missions\n\nAbstract:\nThe future of human spaceflight will send people away from the Earth for longer durations to explore the surface of the moon or Mars. The challenges associated with missions of this magnitude will require advances in technology to resolve these issues in early stages of design. Improved ways to evaluate habitat design\, human factors\, and perform ergonomics evaluation of spacecraft are needed. These missions will require increased crew autonomy and associated decision support. Additional countermeasures are needed to maintain human performance in operational\, isolated\, confined environments. These missions will also require novel spacesuits that minimized restricted mobility and injuries. This talk will discuss my research to measure and mitigate these issues. This research\, while focused on individuals in extreme environments also has direct implications for patient populations here on Earth. \n\nBio:\nDr. Anderson graduated in 2007 with a B.S. in Astronautics Engineering from the University of Southern California with a minor in Astronomy. She received an M.S. in Aerospace Engineering and an M.S. in Technology Policy in 2011 from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)\, and a Ph.D. in Aerospace Biomedical Engineering in 2014 from MIT. She received a postdoctoral fellowship from the National Space Biomedical Research Institute to work at Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center studying human space physiology. She is currently an Assistant Professor at the University of Colorado – Boulder Smead Department of Aerospace Engineering Sciences and an Adjunct Professor in Integrative Physiology. Her work focuses on aerospace biomedical engineering\, spacesuit design\, wearable sensors\, spacecraft habitat design\, alternative reality technologies\, and human physiology in extreme environments. Specifically\, her work is directed toward enabling a human mission to Mars.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Webinar: Pathways of Public Service and Civic Engagement
DESCRIPTION:Campus Compact’s 2020-2021 national webinar series takes the great and varied work happening on the ground around the country and brings it straight to your desk.\n\nStanford University's Haas Center for Public Service has collaborated with 55 public\, private\, two- and four-year institutions since 2013 to develop an innovative holistic framework: \"Pathways of Public Service and Civic Engagement.\" The pathways describe a range of possibilities by which students can contribute to the common good: community-engaged learning/research\; community organizing/activism\; direct service\; philanthropy\; policy/governance\; and social entrepreneurship/corporate social responsibility. The framework guides students in exploring how the pathways differ from each other in language\, practice\, and impact\, and how pathways might intersect to effect social change. \n\nA free online survey surfaces student predispositions and interests toward the pathways\; opens students' eyes to lifelong career\, engagement\, and leadership opportunities\; and assists community engagement practitioners in developing relevant programming. Presenters will share multi-institution research resulting from the survey. Survey data informs practitioners\, who can place students in community settings where they have strong pathway inclinations\, encourage students to explore pathways they hadn't considered\, or ensure they experience all six pathways in multiple placements during college. Each pathway provides students with experience they can use with high-impact practices in curricular and co-curricular settings\, and in the workplace and civil society.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:CLASP Seminar Series: Prof. Lisa Welp\, of Purdue University
DESCRIPTION:Prof. Lisa Welp\, of Purdue University will give a virtual lecture as part of the CLASP Seminar Series. Please join us!\n\nThis is a Zoom virtual event. \nZoom link: https://umich.zoom.us/j/95849940141?pwd=ZE5mUGkycTAreUpGbW9wWklFVE4zQT09\nMeeting ID: 958 4994 0141\nPasscode: 421507\n\nTITLE: Precipitation isotopes in the Andean Coastal Cordillera reflect the transition between Atlantic and Pacific moisture influence sub-seasonally\n\nABSTRACT: The western rain-shadow of the Andes mountains is an extremely arid region stretching from Peru through Chile\, but is home to millions of people and associated infrastructure. While rainfall is important for water resources and supporting native vegetation\, infrequent extreme rainfall events cause costly damage to human life and property. Just in the past several years\, there have been extreme rain events in Northern Peru (2015 and 2017) and the Atacama Desert (2015\, 2017\, and 2019). This region is a transition zone between Atlantic and Pacific moisture influence driven by atmospheric circulation and coastal conditions. The conditions that produce rain in this region are still not fully understood\, especially the role that Pacific sea surface temperatures play. Daily rainfall in Arequipa in southern Peru\, near the arid Andean Coastal Cordillera\, was analyzed for stable water isotope composition during the 2019 wet season to better understand rainfall processes. During anomalously warm coastal sea surface temperatures\, Pacific influence was identified\, and the isotopic values were more depleted at the 2\,328 masl observation location. Improved understanding of regional moisture sources and rain events in this region can aid communities in managing critical water supplies and mitigating flood damage in the future\, inform studies of coupled atmosphere-ocean-cloud feedbacks in the tropics\, as well as provide insight into paleoclimate studies in this region. This presentation will also describe some of the unique natural ecological and agricultural systems in this arid region.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Chair's Distinguished Lecture: A New Approach to Engineering for Safety and Cybersecurity
DESCRIPTION:Prof. Nancy Leveson\nDept. of Aeronautics and Astronautics \nMassachusetts Institute of Technology\n\nAerospace and other systems are becoming increasingly complex and software-intensive. At the same time\, human roles are changing along with the types of errors that the operators of these systems are making. These changes in engineering are leading to new causes of accidents.  But the traditional approaches to safety engineering\, created 50 to 70 years ago\, are based on assumptions about system design that are no longer true. In this presentation I’ll suggest what is needed to prevent unnecessary losses\, including a paradigm change in how we think about and deal with safety\, i.e.\, basing system engineering on system theory (which is where it started a long time ago).\n     \nSystem theory provides the ability to overcome the deficiencies of traditional analytic reduction and to create new\, more powerful approaches to the safety and security of today’s and tomorrow’s systems. Our new systems-theoretic approach to safety is being used successfully in just about every industry around the world and on the most complex systems humans have tried to create. It has been shown through both scientific evaluation and empirical use to be both more powerful and less expensive than the traditional approaches.\n\nAbout the speaker...\n\nNancy Leveson is Professor of Aeronautics and Astronautics at MIT. Prof. Leveson conducts research on all aspects of system safety including modeling and analysis\, design\, operations\, management\, and  and human factors and the larger arena of system engineering. Her techniques are used in a wide variety of safety-critical industries including aerospace\, transportation\, chemical plants\, nuclear power\, medical devices\, and many others. One particular common element throughout all her work is an emphasis on applying systems theory to complex systems. She has received many honors\, most recently the 2020 IEEE Medal for Environmental and Safety Technologies. She was elected to the National Academy of Engineering in 2000.\n    \nDr. Leveson is author of two books: Safeware: System Safety and Computers (1995) published by Addison-Wesley and Engineering a Safer World (2012) published by MIT Press. She consults extensively in many industries on the ways to prevent accidents and has served on numerous national and international committees and accident investigations including being an expert consultant for the Columbia Accident Investigation Board\, the Presidential Commission on Deepwater Horizon\, the Baker Panel on the Texas City explosion\, and a Navy committee investigating one of the V-22 Osprey accidents as well as lesser-known accidents.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Anti-Racism Teach-in
DESCRIPTION:RSVP at Happening @ Michigan \nhttps://events.umich.edu/event/78056\n\nInformation:\nAnti-Racism Peer-Led Teach-In\n\nRacial justice begins with anti-racism. Anti-racism is the active process of identifying and eliminating racism by changing systems\, organizational structures\, policies\, practices\, and attitudes so that power is redistributed and shared equitably (University of Calgary). This peer-led teach-in will engage analytical frameworks for examining systemic cultural\, social\, economic\, and political forces in the community along with individual reflection. Our hope is to raise critical consciousness\, understand the opportunity for actions\, and how our resources can be distributed.\n\nLearning Outcomes\n\nParticipants will be able to:\n\nDefine anti-racism\nIdentify 1-2 examples of how racism manifests in daily lives\nRecognize their participation in a racist system\nIdentify structural racism\, and\nDevelop 1-2 action steps\n\nThis teach-in is offered as part of the Latinx Heritage Month Program.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:In-Between the World and Dreams
DESCRIPTION:In this 3-part installation\, Ghanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama explores global exchange\, commerce and the troubling histories of colonialism and slavery in the Western world. \n\nAt the U-M Museum of Art\, massive\, quilt-like panels cover 4\,452 square feet of the exterior of the building\, creating one of the spectacular architectural interventions Mahama is known for. A related installation at the U-M Institute for the Humanities Gallery can be viewed (and heard) from a sidewalk window. There will also be an installation inside the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History in Detroit. \n\nMahama's artistic practice illustrates\, as he explains\, how art education\, art and cultural opportunities \"allow for people to find new ways to acquire knowledge\, not only of themselves\, but their histories and the places and spaces in which they find themselves.\"\n\nEnveloping the contours of a museum building or wall\, the blankets of jute fibers are meant to contrast with the monumentality of the institutional buildings and spaces they cover\, becoming remnants and traces that reference the hands of laborers\, the imprints of colonialism and the interference of Britain and the U.S. in Ghanaian history.\n\nThe project marks the first outdoor exhibition of Mahama's work in the United States. It is responsive to the present moment\, offering students and the broader community the opportunity to engage with the arts in a public space at a time when gatherings inside buildings and museums are limited.\n\nOct. 1-23: Large-Scale Public Art Installation\, U-M Museum of Art\, 525 S. State St.\, Ann Arbor\nOct. 1-23: Sidewalk Gallery\, Institute for the Humanities Gallery\, 202 S.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:CSEAS Virtual Viewing. *A Thousand Cuts*
DESCRIPTION:For a limited time\, we are sponsoring free access to this film's virtual viewing. For instructions\, please email cseas@umich.edu with the subject “Request to watch ‘A Thousand Cuts’”\n\nAbout the movie:\nOn June 15\, 2020\, journalist Maria Ressa was found guilty of cyber libel\, setting a ticking clock on the limited time she has to get her story out to the world and keep the fight for democracy alive in this all too familiar tale of an autocratic leader drowning out “fake news.” Nowhere is the worldwide erosion of democracy\, fueled by social media disinformation campaigns\, more starkly evident than in the authoritarian regime of Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte. Ressa places the tools of the free press—and her freedom—on the line in defense of truth and democracy. Ramona S. Diaz’s thrilling film follows key players from two sides of an increasingly dangerous war between press and government. As each side digs in\, we become witness to an epic and ongoing fight for the integrity of human life and truth itself—a conflict that extends beyond the Philippines into our own divisive backyard. A Film by Ramona S. Diaz (IMELDA\, MOTHERLAND).\n\nCosponsored by the Michigan Theater.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the 60s and 70s: Kaleidoscope
DESCRIPTION:The notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism in the midst of the political and cultural upheavals of the 1960s and 70s. Kaleidoscope\, UMMA’s third and final edition of this exhibition series\, examines the constantly changing practices of local Detroit artists\, women artists\, and artists of color as they actively embraced abstraction’s possibilities. Their strategies dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in a shifting American political landscape.\n\nSupport for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund\, and the Robert and Janet Miller Fund

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Collection Ensemble
DESCRIPTION:EXTRAORDINARY ARTISTS\, STARTLING WORKS OF ART\, PUT IN DIALOG FOR YOU TO DISCOVER \n \nCollection Ensemble presents the first major reinstallation of UMMA's iconic entry space in over a decade. It exchanges Alumni Memorial Hall's previous focus on European and American painting for a broad mix of American\, European\, African\, and Asian art from across media\, sampling the Museum's remarkable\, disparate holdings. The installation is organized into thematic and formal vignettes that respond to the concepts and ideas resonating from an extraordinary large-scale photograph of a vacant cathedral by contemporary German artist Candida Höfer. Featuring works of art by numerous famous and not-so-famous artists\, many of them artists of color and women—including Charles Alston\, Christo\, Theaster Gates\, Jenny Holzer\, Roni Horn\, Do-Ho Suh\, Kara Walker\, and others\, Collection Ensemble reimagines the collection not as a fixed entity with one set of meanings to be unearthed\, but instead as an active\, creative\, sometimes startling source of material and ideas\, open for debate and interpretation.\n \nRead the exhibition press release here.\n \nJOIN US FOR THE GRAND OPENING AT UMMA AFTER HOURS Tuesday\, April 2 7–10 p.m.\n \nGallery talks\, live music\, and more! This is a free event\, and all are welcome.\n\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Advanced Research Computing on the Great Lakes Cluster
DESCRIPTION:Canceled: Monday\, October 5\, 2020. Spots are still available for the October 9\, 2020\, course. \n\nOVERVIEW\nIntroduction to Research Computing on the Great Lakes Cluster\n\nThis workshop will introduce you to high performance computing on the Great Lakes cluster. After a brief overview of the components of the cluster and the resources available there\, the main body of the workshop will cover creating batch scripts and the options available to run jobs\, and hands-on experience in submitting\, tracking\, and interpreting the results of submitted jobs. By the end of the workshop\, every participant should have created a submission script\, submitted a job\, tracked its progress\, and collected its output. Additional tools including high-performance data transfer services and interactive use of the cluster will also be covered.\n\nPRE-REQUISITES\nThis course assumes familiarity with the Linux command line as might be obtained from the ARC-TS workshop Introduction to the Linux Command Line. In particular\, participants should understand how files and folders work\, be able to create text files using the nano editor\, and be able to create and remove files and folders.  Some exposure to shell input and output redirection and pipes would also be useful.\n\nINSTRUCTORS\nDr. Charles Antonelli\nLSA Technology Services\n\nCharles is a member of the LSA Technology Services Research team at the University of Michigan\, where he is responsible for high performance computing support and education\, and was an Advocate to the Departments of History and Communications. Prior to this\, he built a parallel data ingestion component of a novel earth science data assimilation system\, a secure packet vault\, and worked on the No. 5 ESS Switch at Bell Labs in the 80s. He has taught courses in operating systems\, distributed file systems\, C++ programming\, security\, and database application design.\n\nJohn Thiels\nLSA Technology Services\n\nMATERIALS\nLecture Notes (https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1yZCyfBaK9GVCI64oUW-99HtUO5RNwSlqpeUNo8BjgWI/edit#slide=id.p1)\nGreat Lakes Slurm HPC cluster (https://arc-ts.umich.edu/greatlakes/)\nGreat Lakes User Guide (https://arc-ts.umich.edu/greatlakes/user-guide/)\nTwo-page Cheat Sheet (https://arc-ts.umich.edu/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2020/05/Great-Lakes-Cheat-Sheet.pdf)\n\nCOURSE PREPARATION\nIn order to participate successfully in the workshop exercises\, you must have a Great Lakes user login\, a Slurm account\, and be enrolled in Duo. The user login allows you to log in to the cluster\, create\, compile\, and test applications\, and prepare jobs for submission. The Slurm account allows you to submit those jobs\, executing the applications in parallel on the cluster and charging their resource use to the account. Duo is required to help authenticate you to the cluster.\n\nUSER LOGIN\nIf you already have a Great Lakes user login\, you don’t need to do anything. Otherwise\, go to the application page at http://arc-ts.umich.edu/login-request/ to request a Great Lakes user login.\n\nPlease note that obtaining a user account requires human processing\, so be sure to do this at least two business days before class begins.\n\nSLURM ACCOUNT\nWe create a Slurm account for the workshop so you can run jobs on the cluster during the workshop and for one day after for those who would like additional practice. The workshop job account is quite limited and is intended only to run examples to help you cement the details of job submission and management. If you already have an existing Slurm account\, you can use that\, though if there are any issues with that account\, we will ask you to use the workshop account.\n\nDUO AUTHENTICATION\nDuo two-factor authentication is required to log in to the cluster. When logging in\, you will need to type your UMICH (AKA Level 1) password as well as authenticate through Duo in order to access Great Lakes.\n\nIf you need to enroll in Duo\, follow the instructions at Enroll a Smartphone or Tablet in Duo (https://documentation.its.umich.edu/2fa/enroll-smartphone-or-tablet-duo).\n\nPlease enroll in Duo before you come to class.\n\nLAPTOP PREPARATION\nYou will need VPN software to access the U-M network on which Great Lakes is located.  If you do not have VPN software already installed\, please download and install the Cisco AnyConnect VPN software following these instructions (https://its.umich.edu/enterprise/wifi-networks/vpn/getting-started). Please use the ‘Campus All traffic’ profile in the Cisco client.\n\nYou will need an ssh client to connect to the Great Lakes cluster. Mac OS X and Linux platforms have this built-in. Here are a couple of choices for Windows platforms:\n\nDownload and install U-M PuTTY/WinSCP from the Compute at the U website (https://its.umich.edu/computing/computers-software/compute). This includes both the PuTTY ssh client and terminal emulator and a graphical file transfer tool in one installer. This document describes how to download and use this software\, except please note you will be connecting to greatlakes.arc-ts.umich.edu instead of the cited host (https://documentation.its.umich.edu/node/350). You must have administrative authority over your computer to install this software.\n\nDownload PuTTY directly from the developer (https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/latest.html). Download the putty.exe application listed under “Alternative binary files\,”\, then execute the application.  You do not need administrative authority over your computer to use this software.\n\nOur Great Lakes User Guide in Section 1.2 describes in more detail how to use PuTTY to connect to Great Lakes (https://arc-ts.umich.edu/greatlakes/user-guide/).\n\nPlease prepare and test your computer’s ability to make remote connections before class\; we cannot stop to debug connection issues during the class.\n\nA Zoom link will be provided to the participants the day before the class. Registration is required.  Please note this session will be recorded. \n\nInstructor will be available at the Zoom link\, to be provided\, from 12 -1 PM for computer setup assistance.\n\nIf you have questions about this workshop\, please send an email to the instructors at hpc-course@umich.edu.\n\nRegister\nWednesday\, September 30\, 2020\, 12-4pm: https://ttc.iss.lsa.umich.edu/ttc/sessions/advanced-research-computing-on-the-great-lakes-cluster-4/register/\n\nFriday\, October 9\, 2020\, 12-4pm: https://ttc.iss.lsa.umich.edu/ttc/sessions/advanced-research-computing-on-the-great-lakes-cluster-5/register/

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Biophysics Virtual Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:*Please see below for the link to join the Zoom livestream*\n\nThe Biophysics Virtual Seminar Series Presents:\n\nHong Qian - Olga Jung Wan Endowed Professor of Applied Mathematics\, Department of Applied Mathematics\, University of Washington\n\n“A Mathematical Principle of Stochastic Chemical Kinetics and\nEmergent Chemical Thermodynamics that Applies to Living Cells”\n\nAbstract: In contrast to featureless point masses in Mechanics\, a macromolecule in biochemistry has a large number of internal degrees of freedom in terms of atoms. The behavior of even a single protein in an aqueous environment\, is often so complex that the mathematical representation of biochemical kinetics has to be statistical. In this talk\, I present a stochastic formulation of general chemical reaction systems\, with *N* species and *M* stochastic elementary reactions in solution and show how J. W. Gibbs’ macroscopic equilibrium chemical thermodynamics can be derived as a mathematical result\, with an entropic force as its center piece. Our theory is actually applicable to mesoscopic open chemical systems with a chemostat\, such as a single living cell. I then discuss the application of this theory to understand the notion of non-genetic phenotype switching\, in terms of a landscape\, in cell differentiation and cancer heterogeneity.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:CSEAS Lecture Series. Drawing Borders in Blood: DNA Testing\, Citizenship\, and Statelessness Prevention in Thailand
DESCRIPTION:Virtual lecture via Zoom Webinar. Please register at:\nhttp://myumi.ch/NxgZN\n\nDespite its authoritarian commitments\, the Thai government is regularly lauded by the UN for its statelessness prevention and eradication efforts. Photographs of happy “hill tribe” youth receiving their national ID cards are widely circulated by both the Thai government and human rights advocates\, and are often invoked as examples of “best practices” for statelessness prevention. A relatively recent hallmark of this highly celebrated agenda is DNA testing. How is this test performed and adjudicated\, and what logics underlie a program that promotes citizenship by blood? More importantly\, what are the political and theoretical implications for pursuing these logics in citizenship adjudication? Drawing on extensive ethnographic and survey research\, I argue that DNA testing\, while “verifying” the citizenship claims of thousands of individuals on case-by-case bases\, also produces an increasingly powerful and expansive infrastructure of body/border drawing\, maintenance\, and surveillance. Moreover\, the research indicates that even as state and humanitarian advocates applaud the “objectivity” of DNA tests in adjudication of citizenship claims\, the DNA test is carried out in connection with a range of highly contingent\, subjective\, and uneven practices at individual\, local\, and bureaucratic levels. Ultimately\, the logics that underlie the DNA test are those of ever-expanding\, yet ever-incomplete territorialization—a project that seeks complete\, but ultimately unattainable\, knowledge of\, authority over\, and reconciliation between individuals to territory.\n\nAmanda Flaim is an Assistant Professor at Michigan State University in James Madison College and the Department of Sociology. She studies problems and paradoxes in human rights and development policy in Southeast Asia among indigenous\, highlander\, and migrant communities in particular. Her research agendas include the politics of borders\, statelessness\, and citizenship\, labor exploitation and human trafficking discourse\, and livelihoods transformations associated with dam development and climate change along the Mekong River.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Interdisciplinary Seminar in Social Science Methodology (I3SM) Free Livestream / Virtual
DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT: What sparks environmental policy leadership? Traditional explanations emphasize the importance of domestic interest groups and institutions but often overlook transnational actors that advocate for the adoption and spread of environmental policies. In this paper\, I provide a new dataset on the adoption of environmental policies and develop a new definition of environmental policy leadership. I then show how transnational environmental non-governmental organizations (ENGOs) use their advocacy to stimulate countries' policy innovation and amplify their influence. I find that countries adopt new environmental policies at a 46% higher rate when more transnational ENGOs are present and countries that share more transnational ENGOs are 24% more likely to form leader-follower policymaking relationships. Transnational ENGOs appear to play an important role in catalyzing increases in national environmental policy leadership.\n\nThe primary function of this workshop is to provide an interdisciplinary forum for students and faculty to present their current projects and to receive feedback on either the methodological component of their project or a methodology under development. Presenters can also present new research questions and ideas and receive ideas about which methodologies would work best to tackle such questions. We define methodology broadly as the approaches to which data is collected and/or organized to give empirical content to social science research. It includes both qualitative and quantitative methodologies.\n\nTo join the meeting via Zoom\, email skuzushi@umich.edu for the meeting link.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Fall 2020 - AE285 Seminar Series\, Impact of Engineering Ethics - Boeing 737 Max\, George Halow\, UM
DESCRIPTION:George Halow\nProfessor of Practice\nAerospace Engineering\nUniversity of Michigan\n\nAmong the most critical traits of effective leaders is ethics.  Ethics are a fundamental requirement for leading people\, engendering the trust and confidence of your customers\, co-workers\, and the community at large\, and for delivering the best and most reliable products and services.  Furthermore\, they embody the “right things to do”.  It has been said\, “it takes years to build a reputation for strong ethics\, and just one single lapse to risk destroying it for years to come.” This is especially true in business.\n \nThis seminar examines a high-profile breach in ethics – what happened\, the immediate impacts\, and the lasting legacies it left.\n\nAbout the speaker...\nGeorge Halow is Professor of Practice in Aerospace Engineering\, a position he has held since May 1\, 2019.\n \nPrior to this\, George served 31 years at Ford Motor Company in multiple capacities\, including Chief Program Engineer for multiple vehicle lines\, including Expedition\, Navigator\, Ranger\, Crown Victoria\, Grand Marquis\, and Town Car\, where he had lead responsibility for both the business and technical elements of running a vehicle program\, Chief Functional Engineer\, responsible for product design for interior and exterior vehicle components and systems\, globally\, and many other positions in engineering\, manufacturing\, and busines strategy.\n \nGeorge’s educational background includes an MBA from INSEAD in France\, a Master’s in Mechanical Engineering from Cornell University\, and a Bachelor’s in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Maryland.\n \nThroughout his career\, George has been very active in support of universities – he was Ford’s Executive Champion for the University of Michigan Student Vehicle Teams\, Ford’s representative on the Georgia Tech Ray C. Anderson Sustainability Executive Advisory Board\, and gave lectures to students on Ethics & Integrity\, Innovation\, Leadership\, Sustainability\, and Career Building.  He has published teaching materials on business ethics through the William Davidson Institute at the University of Michigan\, marketed by both Michigan and Harvard\, and used by over 30 universities worldwide.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Get Out the Vote: Empowering the Women's Vote
DESCRIPTION:Organized by AIGA in partnership with League of Women Voters\n\n2020 marks the centennial of the ratification of the 19th Amendment\, granting women the right to vote in 1920. It was the first legislation for women’s voting rights. Not until the passage of the Voting Rights Act in 1965 were voting rights of ALL women protected and enforced\, and intimidation tactics progressively eliminated.  The Get Out the Vote: Empowering the Women’s Vote poster campaign\, organized by AIGA in partnership with the League of Women Voters\, commemorates this milestone. A core group of invited women of design submitted the first 65 non-partisan posters\, to launch the initiative with their vision and voices. Through the posters\, these women joined forces to collectively contribute to dialogue in design and society. This moment in history is an incredible opportunity to catalyze women in design\, voting rights\, citizenship\, community\, and diversity. The collection aspires to not only support present day voter participation\, but to also serve as a backdrop for discourse and examination of the history of voting rights and women’s fight for equality.  The poster initiative continues at aiga.org/vote\, where AIGA members can contribute posters to motivate the American public to register and turn out to vote in the 2020 general election\, as well as local elections to come. Posters are available for free download online.\n\nThe Get Out the Vote: Empowering the Women’s Vote exhibition at Stamps Gallery includes a selection of the 65 posters chosen by a committee of Stamps faculty\, students\, and staff including Nicholas Dowgwillo\, Eloise Janssen\, Keesa V. Johnson\, Francis Nunoo-Quarcoo\, Endi Poskovic\, Destini Riley\, and Stamps Gallery. The exhibition includes posters by Audrey Bennett\, Johanna Björk\, Karen Cheng\, Emily Comfort\, Jenny El-Shamy\, Dinah Fried\, Karin Fong\, Anne M. Giangiulio\, Annabelle Gould\, Brockett Horne\, Meena Khalili\, nicole killian + shawné michaelain holloway\, Karen Kurycki\, Marty Maxwell Lane\, Zuzana Licko\, Ana Llorente\, Beatriz Lozano\, Kelly Salchow MacArthur\, Rebeca Mendez\, Lana Rigsby\, Kaleena Sales\, Renee Seward\, Laurel Shoemaker\, Nancy Sklolos\,  Hannah Smotrich\, Shanti Sparrow\, Jennifer Sterling\, Fearn de Vicq\, Cymone Wilder\, and Lynne Yun.\n\nFall 2020 Hours and Policies\nBeginning September 15\, 2020\, Stamps Gallery will be open to University of Michigan faculty\, staff\, and students on Tuesdays and Fridays from 2-7 pm.\nAll visitors must have a valid M-Card to enter Stamps Gallery. We are unable to welcome the general public to this space at this time.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Real and Imagined: Fabric Works and Video Animations by Heidi Kumao
DESCRIPTION:Stamps Gallery is pleased to present Real and Imagined: Fabric Works and Video Animations\, a solo exhibition of narrative fabric works and experimental animations by Stamps Professor Heidi Kumao.\n\nUsing fabric cutouts and machine and hand stitching on industrial felt\, Kumao gives physical form to the intangible dynamics underlying ordinary conversations and relationships from a feminist perspective. Intentionally minimal\, each image distills an interaction\, traumatic incident\, or power imbalance into an accessible visual narrative. Recognizable objects such as chairs\, roots\, ladders\, or spotlights set the stage for the story to unfold. Events are captured midstream\, suspended in time like a felt film still.\n\nThe exhibition is inspired\, in part\, by the courage\, testimony\, and experiences of women (like Christine Blasey Ford) who publicly report assault\, harassment\, or misconduct. The #MeToo movement gave voice to thousands of women to tell their personal stories\, but also exposed a hostile backlash meant to silence them. The title\, “Real and Imagined\,” is a deliberate contradiction\; if one is true\, the other must not be. In practice\, however\, both terms are used to reference a woman’s testimony and determine how it is publicly interpreted. Her account is accepted as truthful by many and simultaneously dismissed as imaginary by the court of public opinion: “her memory is wrong\,” “she imagined it.”\n\nThe works in “Real and Imagined: Fabric Works and Video Animations” make difficult conversations and relationships tangible by stripping them down to their essentials.\n\nWordless physical gestures highlight the psychological and emotional forces at play behind even the smallest of interactions.\n\nBiography\nHeidi Kumao has created award-winning experimental films\, video installations\, cinema machines\, electronic clothing\, and kinetic sculptures. She has exhibited her work in solo and group exhibitions nationally and internationally including shows at Art Science Museum Singapore\, Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona\, Fundació Joan Miró (Barcelona)\, and Museu da Imagem e do Som (São Paulo). She has received fellowships from the Creative Capital Foundation\, the Guggenheim Foundation\, and the New York Foundation for the Arts. She is a professor at the Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan.\n\nFall 2020 Hours and Policies\nBeginning September 15\, 2020\, Stamps Gallery will be open to University of Michigan faculty\, staff\, and students on Tuesdays and Fridays from 2-7 pm.\nAll visitors must have a valid M-Card to enter Stamps Gallery. We are unable to welcome the general public to this space at this time.

SUMMARY:Auditions:Respond / Resist / Rethink: A Stamps Poster & Video Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Respond/ Resist/ Rethink: A Stamps Student Poster & Video Exhibition\n\nStamps Gallery is proud to kick-off the fall semester with Respond/ Resist/ Rethink: A Student Poster & Video Exhibition\, which brings together powerful posters and playful videos made by the students of Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design.\n\nStamps Gallery is an incubator and lab for contemporary artists and designers to explore ideas and projects that catalyze positive social change. As the pandemic grips our nation it has exposed the social\, political\, and economic disparities that have disproportionately impacted Black\, Indigenous\, and People of Color. The world witnessed in horror and sadness the meaningless loss of African American lives with George Floyd\, Breonna Taylor\, Ahmaud Arbery\, among many others that we will never know. National and international outcries brought people together from multiple races\, genders\, and generations - on social media and in the streets - to publicly demand an end to police brutality\, structural racism\, and emphasizing that Black Lives Matter. What is the role of a university gallery in this time of crisis? How can we foster an inclusive platform for the stakeholders in our community to voice their ideas and foster a community based on equality\, belonging\, respect? We found inspiration in the thoughtful words of renowned civil rights leader and Congressman John Lewis (1940-2020) who wrote\, “My fellow Americans\, this is a special moment in our history. Just as people of all faiths and no faiths\, and all backgrounds\, creeds\, and colors banded together decades ago to fight for equality and justice in a peaceful\, orderly\, non-violent fashion\, we must do so again.” His powerful words are a reminder for all of us - present and future generations to stay hopeful\, proactive\, and resilient in our collective efforts to end racial discrimination and foster a true democracy. \n\nIn this spirit\, Stamps Gallery invited the undergraduate and graduate students at Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, to design posters and make videos to respond and contemplate what each of us can do to build a stronger community\, one that is based on the values of racial equality\, justice and belonging. How can we acknowledge our own biases\, learn from each other\, and listen to the voices of those that have been silenced?

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Scripts\, Sounds\, and Songs: Mediating History in the Caucasus and Beyond (Part 1) | Crosscultural Archives and Contrapuntal Reading: Three Texts from an Era of Transition
DESCRIPTION:Please register in advance for the webinar here:\n   http://myumi.ch/O4zKR\n   After registration\, you will receive a confirmation email with instructions on how to join the webinar.\n   \n   The 10th-century Arab historian and geographer Al-Mas'udi long ago called the Caucasus “jabal al-alsun\,” the \"mountain of tongues\,\" referencing the densely compacted presence of topographical variation and cultural-linguistic diversity. This description rings true locally\, as a dynamic internal to the region’s indigenous inhabitants\, as well as transregionally\, to the extent that the historical destiny of the Caucasus has generally been determined by external pressures\, above all the interimperial rivalry unfolding in recent centuries between Russia\, Iran\, and Ottoman Turkey. One of the many challenges in studying the Caucasus\, then\, arises from the need for a crosscultural and multilingual archive which asks to be read “contrapuntally\,” as Edward Said would have it\, to grasp the entangled nature of historical events and cultural processes. This talk looks at three texts representing two successive military conflicts of the late eighteenth century: Agha Mohammad Khan's campaign of 1795\, which briefly reasserted Persian control over the South Caucasus while devastating the region\, and Count Valerian Zubov’s campaign of 1796\, militarily inconsequential but anticipating Russia's annexation of the South Caucasus in the decades to come. The texts that will be examined are the Russian poet Gavrila Derzhavin’s “On the Return of Count Zubov from Persia” (1797)\, the Armenian Harutiun Araratian (Artemy of Ararat)’s “Life and Adventures” (1813)\, and the Georgian poet Nikoloz Baratashvili’s “The Fate of Kartli” (1839). All three texts address the key events of a transitional decade which saw the South Caucasus pass from Persian into Russian hands and reflect shifting perspectives that owe much to the complex interplay between ethnicity\, social class\, political allegiances\, and aesthetic form.\n   \nHarsha Ram's first book\, “The Imperial Sublime: A Russian Poetics of Empire” (2003)\, addressed the relationship between poetic genre\, aesthetic theory\, territorial space\, and political power in eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century Russian literature. His recent publications chiefly concern Russian-Georgian and Russian-Italian literary relations in the context of theories of world literature and comparative modernisms. His forthcoming book\, “The Geopoetics of Sovereignty. Literature and the Russian-Georgian Encounter\,” seeks to provide a historical account of cultural relations between Georgian and Russian artists and writers over the course of the nineteenth century and early Soviet eras\, focusing specifically on how the Caucasus region has been mapped geopolitically as contested territory and geopoetically as a space of natural and ethnolinguistic diversity. His third book project\, tentatively titled “The Worlding of Russian Literature\,” will examine the interaction of Russian and world literatures during two crucial moments of transition and rupture: the 1840s\, which saw the emergence of plebeian intellectuals and a new sense of the public sphere\, and the 1920s\, when the Russian avant-garde sought to reimagine the relationship between society and the written word.\n\nSamuel Hodgkin is an Assistant Professor of Comparative Literature at Yale University\, who has published on the modern verse\, theater\, and criticism of Iran\, Turkey\, the Caucasus\, and Central Asia. His current book project\, entitled “The Nightingales’ Congress: Literary Representatives in the Communist East\,” shows how the Soviet internationalist project of world literature emerged from sustained engagement between leftist writers of West and South Asia and state-sponsored writers of the multinational Soviet East.\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 Theory: Scoring Strategic Agents
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nI introduce a model of predictive scoring. A receiver wants to predict a sender’s quality. An intermediary observes multiple features of the sender and aggregates them into a score. Based on the score\, the receiver takes a decision. The sender wants the most favorable decision\, and she can distort each feature at a privately known cost. I characterize the most accurate scoring rule. This rule underweights some features to deter sender distortion\, and overweights other features so that the score is correct on average. The receiver prefers this score to full disclosure because the aggregated information mitigates his commitment problem.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:2020 Election: Voter Turnout and Access in Ohio and Michigan
DESCRIPTION:The Ford School invites you to join us for a conversation on voting rights and voter access\, featuring Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson (link is external) and Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose (link is external). Jenna Bednar\, Professor of Political Science and Public Policy\, will moderate. Secretaries Benson and LaRose will discuss state-level approaches to voter access since 2016. Issues surrounding voter turnout during the upcoming 2020 election will also be discussed\, including voting during the coronavirus pandemic. \n\nFor more details visit https://fordschool.umich.edu/events/2020/2020-election-voter-turnout-and-access-ohio-and-michigan\n\nFrom the panelists' bios: \n\nJocelyn Benson is Michigan’s 43rd Secretary of State. In this role she is focused on ensuring elections are secure and accessible\, and dramatically improving customer experiences for all who interact with our offices. Benson is the author of State Secretaries of State: Guardians of the Democratic Process\, the first major book on the role of the secretary of state in enforcing election and campaign finance laws. A graduate of Harvard Law School and expert on civil rights law\, education law and election law\, Benson served as dean of Wayne State University Law School in Detroit. She continues to serve as vice chair of the advisory board for the Levin Center at Wayne Law\, which she founded with former U.S. Sen. Carl Levin. Previously\, Benson was an associate professor and associate director of Wayne Law’s Damon J. Keith Center for Civil Rights.\n\nFrank LaRose took office as Ohio's 51st Secretary of State on January 14th\, 2019. Prior to being elected to statewide office\, he served two terms in the State Senate representing the 27th Senate District in northeast Ohio. As Ohio’s Secretary of State\, LaRose is doing his part to deliver a thriving democracy and a prosperous economy. In his role as Ohio’s chief elections officer\, he’s working to ensure Ohio’s elections are secure\, accurate and accessible. He is also supporting Ohio entrepreneurs as the sole authority to receive and approve articles of incorporation for Ohio businesses. Among numerous recognitions\, LaRose was named the Legislator of the Year in 2016 by the Ohio Association of Election Officials in recognition of his support and commitment to improving Ohio’s election process. LaRose\, a native of northeast Ohio\, graduated from The Ohio State University with a degree in Consumer Affairs and Business.\n\nJenna Bednar is a professor of political science at the University of Michigan\, the Edie N Goldenberg Endowed Director for the Michigan in Washington Program\, and a member of the external faculty at the Santa Fe Institute. Her research combines positive political theory and systems theory to study how formal institutions\, such as laws\, electoral rules\, or constitutions\, remain effective in complex environments. Her most recent book\,The Robust Federation demonstrates how complementary institutions maintain and adjust the distribution of authority between national and state governments.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:HET Seminar | A Double Copy for Celestial Amplitudes
DESCRIPTION:Seminar link:http://myumi.ch/O4P7E \n\nCelestial amplitudes which use conformal primary wavefunctions rather than plane waves as external states offer a novel opportunity to study properties of amplitudes with manifest conformal covariance and give insight into a potential holographic celestial CFT at the null boundary of asymptotically flat space. With the notion of energy traded for the conformal dimension under the Lorentz group acting on the celestial sphere\, energetically soft theorems of QFT scattering amplitudes are replaced by \"conformally soft\" theorems. Moreover\, since translation invariance is obscured in the conformal basis\, features of amplitudes that heavily rely on it\, such as the remarkable relations between gauge theory and gravity amplitudes known as the double copy\, appear to be lost. My main focus in this talk is to show that there exists nevertheless a well-defined procedure for a celestial double copy. This requires a generalization of the usual squaring of numerators to first promoting them to generalized differential operators acting on external wavefunctions\, and then squaring them.  I will end with recent results on how to obtain celestial loop amplitudes from tree level ones.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Interdisciplinary Workshop in American Politics (IWAP)
DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT:\nPolitical activity on social media presents a data-rich window into political behavior\, but the vast amount of data means that almost all content analyses of social media require a data labeling step. Automated labeling methods\, however\, ignore the multimodality of posted content\, focusing either on text or images. State-of-the-art vision-and-language models are unusable for most political science research: they require all observations have both image and text and require computationally expensive pretraining. This paper proposes a novel vision-and-language framework calledmultimodal representations using modality translation (MARMOT). MARMOT presents three methodological contributions: it can construct representations for observations missing image or text\, it replaces the computationally expensive pretraining with modality translation\, and it leverages off-the-shelf transfer learning models from computer vision and natural language processing. MARMOT outperforms an ensemble text-only classifier in 16 of 20 categories in multilabel classifications of tweets reporting election incidents during the 2016 U.S. general election. Moreover\, MARMOT sets a new state-of-the-art result on the Hateful Memes dataset\, improving the best result in terms of area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) from 0.7141 to 0.7530 and accuracy from 0.6473 to 0.6760.\n\nThe Interdisciplinary Workshop on American Politics (IWAP) is a forum for the presentation of ongoing interdisciplinary research in American politics. Most of our presentations are given by graduate students. Each graduate student presenter is assigned a faculty and student discussant. IWAP circulates the work beforehand and the student presents it briefly at the start of the meeting. After discussant feedback\, the bulk of the time is reserved for group discussion among all workshop participants. This format leads to informal yet highly interactive and productive conversations.\n\nEmail zcwalker@umich.edu for meeting link.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Shock Compression Experiments of Natural Silicates to Elucidate Planetary Impact Processes
DESCRIPTION:Zoom Meeting ID: 91923221977\nThe Earth and other terrestrial planets experienced one to several energetic impacts during accretion and growth. Models of planet accretion suggest that the highest-energy impacts\, like the one that resulted in the formation of Earth's moon\, disrupt both the target proto-planet and the impactor\, with a significant portion of material being melted or vaporized by the impact. However\, the temperatures reached in such impact scenarios are only recently being experimentally constrained due to improvements in experimental capabilities. Improved understanding of temperatures during giant impacts are needed to understand the chemical outcomes\, including miscibility\, metal-silicate partitioning\, and formation of atmospheres. Experiments that can simulate the conditions of a large impact have thus far been restricted to end-member oxides and silicates. However\, natural minerals include small amounts of iron\, which may have a large effect on the thermo-elastic parameters of the material. Here\, we present shock compression experiments of olivine\, orthopyroxene (bronzite) and wadsleyite to 1.5 TPa in pressure and over 50\,000 K in temperature. These experiments will be used to inform planetary impact models and serve as a benchmark for dynamics simulations of large\, hot exoplanets.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Colloquium: “The ecology of L2 learning and L1 change in adult bilingualism”
DESCRIPTION:Antonella Sorace\, Professor of Developmental Linguistics\, University of Edinburgh\, will give a virtual colloquium: “The ecology of L2 learning and L1 change in adult bilingualism.” \n\nABSTRACT\nRecent research on adult bilingualism shows that selective aspects of grammar become variable in speakers experiencing native language (L1) attrition from learning a second language. I will first show that the structures affected involve “complex contingencies” (Phillips & Ehrenhofer 2015) that require efficient integration of information across (syntactic\, pragmatic and contextual) domains. These are the same structures that remain variable even in highly proficient non-native (L2) speakers of the same language (Sorace 2011\, 2016). I will then consider various factors that may play a role in these phenomena\, including cross-linguistic effects\, the cognitive costs of handling two languages\, and the role of over-expliciteness. I will finally point to the possibility that L1 change and L2 acquisition may be functionally related in active proficient bilinguals. I will conclude that L1 attrition is a natural consequence of language contact\, first in the bilingual brain and then in bilingual communities\, which may eventually lead to language change. Understanding the big picture requires interdisciplinary research on different facets of bilingualism that combines the strengths of both linguistic and cognitive models.

DESCRIPTION:The goal of this hands-on workshop is to introduce the Simple Run-Time Infrastructure software toolkit (SRTI) to the participants\, and provide a template project consisting of multiple simulators\, each with a specialized purpose\, relating to a natural-disaster scenario. It will take place after the feature talks.\n\nThe SRTI is a free\, open-source solution developed at the University of Michigan\, and enables researchers to connect computer programs and simulators written in different languages\, to share data during execution\, and to design hybrid systems using disparate simulator modules\, with a primary goal of being user friendly. This hands-on workshop will explain what the SRTI is\, and provide an example on how to use it.\n\nThe Java Runtime Environment (JRE) is required to run the SRTI. Please install it prior to the workshop. Refer to icor.engin.umich.edu for more information on supported operating systems and languages. Participants will need to use their own computer systems at home to take part. Basic coding skills in any programming language are required.\n\nOpen to the general public. Please register if you wish to participate.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Form&Seek Design Collective: Never Normal
DESCRIPTION:Bilge Nur Saltik (Founder\, Form&Seek)\, Aaron Blendowski (Artist & Designer) and Alison Wong (Director + Curator\, Wasserman Projects) will discuss the concept and development of Never Normal\, an exhibition created by the Detroit based design collective Form&Seek\, produced by Wasserman Projects. Featuring works by over 20 designers\, Never Normal expresses the ever-changing viewpoint of the designer’s perspective on the built world. Looking away from the conventional means of solving problems\, the works in this exhibition seek to reexamine and reevaluate our personal relationships to our domestic landscape. Through craft or making\, these designers are able to express value\, preciousness\, and care that offer intuitive moments of clarity on contemporary issues in response to the needs of a society in flux.\n\nThe future now seems inscrutable\, provoking us to think of the possibilities and opportunities for change in human behaviors and our environment.\n\nForm&Seek\, together with Wasserman Projects\, is proud to present Never Normal in Detroit to honor its history as the cradle of American design and to uphold the city as a platform for new experimental design.\n\nIn partnership with Wasserman Projects.\n\nHow to Watch\n\nAll speaker series events will be webcast on Fridays at 8 pm EST at http://pennystampsevents.org and at https://www.dptv.org/programs/arts-culture/penny-stamps-series/ starting Friday\, September 18.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:In-Between the World and Dreams
DESCRIPTION:In this 3-part installation\, Ghanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama explores global exchange\, commerce and the troubling histories of colonialism and slavery in the Western world. \n\nAt the U-M Museum of Art\, massive\, quilt-like panels cover 4\,452 square feet of the exterior of the building\, creating one of the spectacular architectural interventions Mahama is known for. A related installation at the U-M Institute for the Humanities Gallery can be viewed (and heard) from a sidewalk window. There will also be an installation inside the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History in Detroit. \n\nMahama's artistic practice illustrates\, as he explains\, how art education\, art and cultural opportunities \"allow for people to find new ways to acquire knowledge\, not only of themselves\, but their histories and the places and spaces in which they find themselves.\"\n\nEnveloping the contours of a museum building or wall\, the blankets of jute fibers are meant to contrast with the monumentality of the institutional buildings and spaces they cover\, becoming remnants and traces that reference the hands of laborers\, the imprints of colonialism and the interference of Britain and the U.S. in Ghanaian history.\n\nThe project marks the first outdoor exhibition of Mahama's work in the United States. It is responsive to the present moment\, offering students and the broader community the opportunity to engage with the arts in a public space at a time when gatherings inside buildings and museums are limited.\n\nOct. 1-23: Large-Scale Public Art Installation\, U-M Museum of Art\, 525 S.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:CSEAS Virtual Viewing. *A Thousand Cuts*
DESCRIPTION:For a limited time\, we are sponsoring free access to this film's virtual viewing. For instructions\, please email cseas@umich.edu with the subject “Request to watch ‘A Thousand Cuts’”\n\nAbout the movie:\nOn June 15\, 2020\, journalist Maria Ressa was found guilty of cyber libel\, setting a ticking clock on the limited time she has to get her story out to the world and keep the fight for democracy alive in this all too familiar tale of an autocratic leader drowning out “fake news.” Nowhere is the worldwide erosion of democracy\, fueled by social media disinformation campaigns\, more starkly evident than in the authoritarian regime of Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte. Ressa places the tools of the free press—and her freedom—on the line in defense of truth and democracy. Ramona S. Diaz’s thrilling film follows key players from two sides of an increasingly dangerous war between press and government. As each side digs in\, we become witness to an epic and ongoing fight for the integrity of human life and truth itself—a conflict that extends beyond the Philippines into our own divisive backyard. A Film by Ramona S. Diaz (IMELDA\, MOTHERLAND).\n\nCosponsored by the Michigan Theater.

DESCRIPTION:Professor Fred Adams will give a pre-recorded lecture with a \"live\" Q&A after the talk.\n\nYoutube Event Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jPs7-svpZW8 (Link will be active at 10:30 am on 10/10/20.) See saturdaymorningphysics.org for more details.\n\nThe fundamental constants of nature must fall within a range of values in order for the universe to develop structure and ultimately support life. The relevant parameters include the strengths of the fundamental forces\, particle masses\, cosmic energy densities\, abundances of ordinary matter and dark matter\, and the amplitude of primordial density fluctuations. This talk considers current constraints on these quantities and assesses the degree of tuning required for the universe to be viable.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the 60s and 70s: Kaleidoscope
DESCRIPTION:The notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism in the midst of the political and cultural upheavals of the 1960s and 70s. Kaleidoscope\, UMMA’s third and final edition of this exhibition series\, examines the constantly changing practices of local Detroit artists\, women artists\, and artists of color as they actively embraced abstraction’s possibilities. Their strategies dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in a shifting American political landscape.\n\nSupport for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund\, and the Robert and Janet Miller Fund

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Collection Ensemble
DESCRIPTION:EXTRAORDINARY ARTISTS\, STARTLING WORKS OF ART\, PUT IN DIALOG FOR YOU TO DISCOVER \n \nCollection Ensemble presents the first major reinstallation of UMMA's iconic entry space in over a decade. It exchanges Alumni Memorial Hall's previous focus on European and American painting for a broad mix of American\, European\, African\, and Asian art from across media\, sampling the Museum's remarkable\, disparate holdings. The installation is organized into thematic and formal vignettes that respond to the concepts and ideas resonating from an extraordinary large-scale photograph of a vacant cathedral by contemporary German artist Candida Höfer. Featuring works of art by numerous famous and not-so-famous artists\, many of them artists of color and women—including Charles Alston\, Christo\, Theaster Gates\, Jenny Holzer\, Roni Horn\, Do-Ho Suh\, Kara Walker\, and others\, Collection Ensemble reimagines the collection not as a fixed entity with one set of meanings to be unearthed\, but instead as an active\, creative\, sometimes startling source of material and ideas\, open for debate and interpretation.\n \nRead the exhibition press release here.\n \nJOIN US FOR THE GRAND OPENING AT UMMA AFTER HOURS Tuesday\, April 2 7–10 p.m.\n \nGallery talks\, live music\, and more! This is a free event\, and all are welcome.\n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:In-Between the World and Dreams
DESCRIPTION:In this 3-part installation\, Ghanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama explores global exchange\, commerce and the troubling histories of colonialism and slavery in the Western world. \n\nAt the U-M Museum of Art\, massive\, quilt-like panels cover 4\,452 square feet of the exterior of the building\, creating one of the spectacular architectural interventions Mahama is known for. A related installation at the U-M Institute for the Humanities Gallery can be viewed (and heard) from a sidewalk window. There will also be an installation inside the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History in Detroit. \n\nMahama's artistic practice illustrates\, as he explains\, how art education\, art and cultural opportunities \"allow for people to find new ways to acquire knowledge\, not only of themselves\, but their histories and the places and spaces in which they find themselves.\"\n\nEnveloping the contours of a museum building or wall\, the blankets of jute fibers are meant to contrast with the monumentality of the institutional buildings and spaces they cover\, becoming remnants and traces that reference the hands of laborers\, the imprints of colonialism and the interference of Britain and the U.S. in Ghanaian history.\n\nThe project marks the first outdoor exhibition of Mahama's work in the United States. It is responsive to the present moment\, offering students and the broader community the opportunity to engage with the arts in a public space at a time when gatherings inside buildings and museums are limited.\n\nOct. 1-23: Large-Scale Public Art Installation\, U-M Museum of Art\, 525 S.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:CSEAS Virtual Viewing. *A Thousand Cuts*
DESCRIPTION:For a limited time\, we are sponsoring free access to this film's virtual viewing. For instructions\, please email cseas@umich.edu with the subject “Request to watch ‘A Thousand Cuts’”\n\nAbout the movie:\nOn June 15\, 2020\, journalist Maria Ressa was found guilty of cyber libel\, setting a ticking clock on the limited time she has to get her story out to the world and keep the fight for democracy alive in this all too familiar tale of an autocratic leader drowning out “fake news.” Nowhere is the worldwide erosion of democracy\, fueled by social media disinformation campaigns\, more starkly evident than in the authoritarian regime of Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte. Ressa places the tools of the free press—and her freedom—on the line in defense of truth and democracy. Ramona S. Diaz’s thrilling film follows key players from two sides of an increasingly dangerous war between press and government. As each side digs in\, we become witness to an epic and ongoing fight for the integrity of human life and truth itself—a conflict that extends beyond the Philippines into our own divisive backyard. A Film by Ramona S. Diaz (IMELDA\, MOTHERLAND).\n\nCosponsored by the Michigan Theater.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the 60s and 70s: Kaleidoscope
DESCRIPTION:The notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism in the midst of the political and cultural upheavals of the 1960s and 70s. Kaleidoscope\, UMMA’s third and final edition of this exhibition series\, examines the constantly changing practices of local Detroit artists\, women artists\, and artists of color as they actively embraced abstraction’s possibilities. Their strategies dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in a shifting American political landscape.\n\nSupport for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund\, and the Robert and Janet Miller Fund

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Collection Ensemble
DESCRIPTION:EXTRAORDINARY ARTISTS\, STARTLING WORKS OF ART\, PUT IN DIALOG FOR YOU TO DISCOVER \n \nCollection Ensemble presents the first major reinstallation of UMMA's iconic entry space in over a decade. It exchanges Alumni Memorial Hall's previous focus on European and American painting for a broad mix of American\, European\, African\, and Asian art from across media\, sampling the Museum's remarkable\, disparate holdings. The installation is organized into thematic and formal vignettes that respond to the concepts and ideas resonating from an extraordinary large-scale photograph of a vacant cathedral by contemporary German artist Candida Höfer. Featuring works of art by numerous famous and not-so-famous artists\, many of them artists of color and women—including Charles Alston\, Christo\, Theaster Gates\, Jenny Holzer\, Roni Horn\, Do-Ho Suh\, Kara Walker\, and others\, Collection Ensemble reimagines the collection not as a fixed entity with one set of meanings to be unearthed\, but instead as an active\, creative\, sometimes startling source of material and ideas\, open for debate and interpretation.\n \nRead the exhibition press release here.\n \nJOIN US FOR THE GRAND OPENING AT UMMA AFTER HOURS Tuesday\, April 2 7–10 p.m.\n \nGallery talks\, live music\, and more! This is a free event\, and all are welcome.\n\n

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Michigan and Other Battleground States
DESCRIPTION:Michigan is one of a group of swing states that have had close\, competitive races in recent presidential campaigns and down ballot contests. Our panel of journalists explores how Michigan and other current battleground states are faring and impacting the 2020 campaigns and election.\n \nModerated by Stephen Henderson\, our panelists Riley Beggin of Bridge Magazine and Tim Alberta of Politico will examine what causes battleground states to swing and what effect they have on political parties or candidates’ choices of issues to emphasize.\n\nStephen Henderson is host of Detroit Today on WDET\, co-host of One Detroit on Detroit Public Television\, project executive for BridgeDetroit and a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist. \n\nA native of Detroit\, Henderson is a graduate of University of Detroit High School and the University of Michigan. His resume includes stints at the Detroit Free Press\, the Chicago Tribune\, the Baltimore Sun\, and four years covering the Supreme Court for Knight Ridder’s Washington Bureau. \n\nRiley Beggin is a Capitol reporter covering Michigan politics\, including legislative\, gubernatorial and other statewide elections.  She joined Bridge in January 2018 after working at KPCC\, Los Angeles’ NPR member station. Before that\, she was a fellow at ABC News’ Washington Bureau and an intern with NPR’s investigative unit. \n\nBeggin majored in history and international relations at the University of Wisconsin—Madison. She also holds a Master’s Degree in investigative journalism from the University of Missouri.\n\nTim Alberta is chief political correspondent for POLITICO\, where his longer form work is often published in the publication’s magazine. He covers a range of topics\, including: The Trump presidency\; Capitol Hill\; the ideological warfare between and within the two parties\; demographic change in America\; and the evolving role of money in elections. He co-moderated the final Democratic presidential primary debate in 2019 hosted by PBS Newshour and POLITICO. \n\nBased in Michigan and tasked with roving widely across battleground states\, Alberta writes a regular “Letter to Washington\,” a 2020 dispatch highlighting stories\, trends\, and people from outside the political bubble for the political bubbles.\n\nPre-registration is required via the OLLI website or phone.  A link to access the lecture will be e-mailed to you approximately one week prior to the event.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Developmental Brown Bag:  The effect of Foreigner Talk on Children's Evaluations of Addressees and Speakers
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nA growing literature suggests accent serves as an important social category for infants and young children. Children show early social preferences for native over non-native speakers\, and this tendency may lay the foundation for future accent prejudice observed in adulthood. However\, children do not hear non-native accents in a vacuum\; instead\, their experiences with accent are informed by a number of factors within a broader communicative context. One factor that may be of particular importance is the speech register typically associated with native speakers talking to non-native speakers-- a register known as Foreigner Talk. This talk reports on three studies that examine whether Foreigner Talk affects children's (ages 5-10\, N = 308) and adults' (N = 216) evaluations of those speaking and receiving Foreigner Talk. The findings provide insight into how conversational choices may impact children's developing conceptions of non-native speakers specifically\, and outgroup members more broadly.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Honors Seminar Series: Sara Fitzgerald
DESCRIPTION:In 1970\, as Michigan prepared to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the admission of women\, women faculty at U.S. colleges were exempted from the protections of the major civil rights laws and the U-M admissions office was enforcing a 55:45 quota on male-female admissions to ensure that there would not be an “overbalance” of women in the freshman class. But a small group of Ann Arbor women developed a strategy to unleash the power of the federal government to demand change at U-M by threatening to withhold millions of dollars in federal contracts. The settlement provided the model for resolving similar complaints at dozens of other universities in the years immediately before the passage of Title IX. Sara Fitzgerald\, then an Honors history major\, covered the controversy for The Michigan Daily\, and a half-century later\, reflects on how that time on campus shaped her own career aspirations and writing interests. \n\nAuthor of \"Conquering Heroines\"\, and Honors alumna\, Sara Fitzgerald is a former editor and new-media developer for the Washington Post and was the first woman to serve as editor-in-chief of the Michigan Daily. She is the author of Elly Peterson: “Mother” of the Moderates (University of Michigan Press\, 2012) and The Poet’s Girl (Thought Catalog Books\, 2020).\n\nPlease register for this event here: https://myumi.ch/0W1Op

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Cognitive Science Seminar Series: \"Which linguistic theory for CogSci?\"
DESCRIPTION:Linguistics professor Jeffrey Health will give a talk titled \"Which linguistic theory for CogSci?\" \n\nPlease visit the seminar website for Zoom link and details.\n\nABSTRACT\nThe linguistic theory most familiar to cognitive scientists\, the syntax-centric generativist model\, has deep-seated problems for which no patches are available. Syntax-centrism alienates the model from processing and especially from speaking\, and therefore from any natural cognitive processes. Its emphasis on economy now seems quaint in the context of the brain’s massive storage and computational power. The evo-devo theory that is joined to the theory’s hip makes no sense biologically. Under the microscope\, current minimalism consists largely of ad hoc devices to account for language-specific linear ordering: functional projections some of which are meaningless\, unnecessary specifier positions for these projections\, phonological deletion due to unmotivated “computational efficiency\,” and ad hoc processes like “remnant movement” when all else fails. Even with this proliferation of makeshift entities and processes\, the model cannot account for basic morphosyntactic phenomena in many nonwestern languages. In this talk I discuss how a directional\, speaker-centric model that stands up to crosslinguistic findings might be cobbled together from “cognitive linguistics” on the semantic end and morphophonological (including prosodic) theories on the output end. I describe some linguistic issues that are\, and some that are not\, amenable to experimental study and to computational modeling.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Building DESI - The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument
DESCRIPTION:Please contact Beth Demkowski\, demkowsk@umich.edu for Zoom link.\n\nThe Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) is a multi-object fiber spectrograph on the Mayall 4-meter telescope at Kitt Peak National Observatory. DESI consists of a new wide-field optical corrector and a 3-degree focal plane with 5000 robotic fiber positioners feeding into ten broadband spectrographs. The large number of spectra obtained in a single exposure will enable a five-year spectroscopic survey of over a third of the sky. DESI will obtain redshifts for more than 35 million objects including luminous red galaxies\, emission line galaxies and quasar Ly-a forest spectra\, creating the most detailed 3-dimensional map of the universe to date. \n\nThe DESI focal plane is composed of ten identical wedge-shaped petals which were integrated and tested at Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory and installed at Kitt Peak during the Summer of 2019. DESI completed commissioning in March 2020 just days before mountain operations had to be put on hold due to the COVID-19 pandemic. During Commissioning\, 12 million on-sky spectra were taken and two dark time mini surveys were completed. Following a brief overview of DESI I will highlight some of the milestones during construction and installation of the DESI instrument. I will close by touching on some of the results from the commissioning phase.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:STS Speaker. Timescapes of Behavior: Resilience and Long-Term Ecological Research
DESCRIPTION:The Science\, Technology\, Medicine and Society (STeMS) Speaker Series features scholars doing research across the range of STS subject matter. This term:\n\nAre we humans cooperative or warlike\, rational or delusional\, fixed or flexible? These questions have philosophical bite and political stakes. Indeed\, they always have. But recent work in a range of disciplines asks us to go deeper. What if “we humans” are more fiction than fact? If we can’t assume the stability of the human across time and place\, what happens to debates about human nature? Humanistic approaches\, including actor-network theory\, posthuman criticism\, and multispecies ethnographies\, challenge the idea of an autonomous human nature\, while scientific studies of organ development\, neuroendocrinology\, and the microbiome are revealing how much nature there is inside of us. We explore these questions through a braided history of the human and environmental sciences.

SUMMARY:Presentation:The Evolution of Basketball with Data Science
DESCRIPTION:For the last couple of decades\, most industries have grown to take advantage of the information gained from data collection. As that happened\, professional sports teams started to catch on. Baseball took the lead thanks to the amount of data collected over the years\, which dates to the 1800s\, but a lot of other professional sports followed and put more attention to their data collection. With technological advancements\, particularly high-speed cameras\, storage capacities and image recognition\, more dynamic sports started to collect richer and richer data. The insights derived from this data started shifting the way the game is played and the way players are evaluated. This talk will take you through the evolution of data science in basketball and give examples of how data is shifting the way teams make decisions on and off the court.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:How Lean Culture is Fighting Against the Coronavirus
DESCRIPTION:We’ve all been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic in different ways. For me\, one of the ways was receiving a call to “deploy” to our ventilator manufacturing facility to help make an unprecedented volume of ventilators as fast as possible. The world needed ventilators to fight COVID-19 and we needed to ramp production using our best manufacturing methodologies.Using Lean techniques was once described by one of its founding leaders\, Taiichi Ohno\, as “looking at the timeline\, from the moment the customer gives us an order to the point when we collect the cash. And we are reducing the timeline by reducing the non-value adding wastes.” GE Healthcare has incorporated Lean into its operational fabric just as described in the quote to delivery reliable daily output as well as to take on new manufacturing challenges. In this presentation\, I will describe the challenge that COVID-19 presented to our company\, to the production process & to the cross-functional group of people involved in supporting production. To tell this story\, I will be sharing some basics about Lean Methodologies and how it influenced our approach\, communications & the execution of an unprecedented ventilator output. Finally\, I will discuss how these same methodologies and approach can be used to positively impact your business\, career\, or challenge you’re facing.\n \nPassion: My passion is serving the Healthcare community by educating eager learners\, utilizing Lean-6 Sigma methodologies & incorporating Advanced Technologies to challenge the status quo & bring about meaningful improvement.\n\nExperience: I’ve been with GE Healthcare for 15 years in a variety of roles from a manufacturing engineer\, to a site & national Lean Leader to a multi-state field service director. These roles have including manufacturing\, service & commercial elements to them and always included a primary focus on healthcare. Additionally\, I have worked within the aviation\, energy & financial industries through cross-business projects. With my experience\, I was recently called on by GE to help during the COVID-19 response to drive increased output\, improved quality & to build a supportive culture in our ventilator manufacturing business. Additionally\, I have used this knowledge to start an education & consulting group focused on Lean methodologies called ripple Solutions LLC. My small business has allowed me to expand outside of healthcare & connect with the printing\, distribution\, university & non-healthcare manufacturing industries.\n\nEducation: I have a degree in Industrial Engineering with additional courses in Medical Sciences from University of Michigan\, class of 2007. I am a GE Healthcare Operations Management Leadership Program graduate\, I’m a certified Black Belt in DMAIC Lean Six Sigma and I’m Green Belt certified in DFSS Six Sigma. I have also received extensive GE Healthcare & Shingijtsu Lean training.\n\nThis seminar series is presented by the U-M Center for Healthcare Engineering and Patient Safety (CHEPS): Our mission is to improve the safety and quality of healthcare delivery through a multi-disciplinary\, systems-engineering approach. For the Zoom link and password and to be added to the weekly e-mail for the series\, please RSVP. For additional questions\, contact CHEPSseminar@umich.edu. Photographs and video taken at this event may be used to promote CHEPS\, College of Engineering\, and the University.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LACS and Latina/o Studies Virtual Panel Discussion. Monumental Injustice in the Americas
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public. Registration required: http://myumi.ch/2DVXB\n\nAs a joint effort between the Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies (LACS) and the Latina/o Studies Program\, this panel brings together scholars whose work helps us think about past and present efforts to topple physical monuments to historical figures across the Americas. As the United States recognizes \"Hispanic Heritage Month\,\" we push for thinking that cuts across borders. We highlight the hemisphere's interconnected histories of racism\, colonialism\, conquest and slavery that are at the center of both efforts to memorialize certain figures and stories\, and efforts to upend these commemorative structures and the narratives they support. Public discussions around contested symbols of injustice are themselves opportunities to remake historical narratives\, and we anticipate this panel will add a rich and important discussion.\n\nSpeaker Biographies:\n\nERIN L. THOMPSON is America’s only full-time professor of art crime (John Jay College\, CUNY). She studies a variety of relations between art and crime\, including the looting of antiquities\, museum theft\, art made by detainees at Guantánamo Bay\, and the legalities and ethics of digital reproductions of cultural heritage. She has discussed these topics for the New York Times\, CNN\, NPR\, and the Freakonomics podcast\, among many others. She is currently writing Smashing Statues: On the Rise and Fall of America’s Public Monuments (Norton 2021). She has written and spoken about the science of public art\, the history of protests\, the legal barriers to removal of controversial art\, and examples of innovative approaches to the problem in venues including Art in America\, Hyperallergic\, the LARB Blog\, and the New York Times.\n\nANA LUCIA ARAUJO is a full Professor of History at the historically black Howard University in Washington DC\, United States.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AT HOME WITH LITERATI: LEE VAN DER VOO & REBECCA HARDIN
DESCRIPTION:When 21 youth activists filed Juliana v. United States\, they asserted that the government’s continued negligence of the environment constituted a violation of their rights to life\, liberty\, and property. In As the World Burns\, Lee van der Voo follows the still-evolving legal case as she tells the plaintiffs’ stories\, all against the backdrop of the current climate-related crises and the mass protests happening and around the world. Granted unparalleled access to the plaintiffs and their legal team\, van der Voo reveals the human side of the climate crisis\, the dire effects of decades of inaction\, and the reasons why tackling our environmental issues in the courts is possibly our last real hope for meaningful intervention. This book is a call to arms for all of us\, young and old alike.\n\nAuthor Bio:\n\nLee van der Voo is an award-winning investigative and environmental journalist whose work has appeared in the New York Times\, The Atlantic\, and The Guardian\, among others. Her 2016 book The Fish Market\, which chronicles the gentrification of the sea in the name of sustainable seafood\, won an Oregon Book Award for General Nonfiction.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:In-Between the World and Dreams
DESCRIPTION:In this 3-part installation\, Ghanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama explores global exchange\, commerce and the troubling histories of colonialism and slavery in the Western world. \n\nAt the U-M Museum of Art\, massive\, quilt-like panels cover 4\,452 square feet of the exterior of the building\, creating one of the spectacular architectural interventions Mahama is known for. A related installation at the U-M Institute for the Humanities Gallery can be viewed (and heard) from a sidewalk window. There will also be an installation inside the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History in Detroit. \n\nMahama's artistic practice illustrates\, as he explains\, how art education\, art and cultural opportunities \"allow for people to find new ways to acquire knowledge\, not only of themselves\, but their histories and the places and spaces in which they find themselves.\"\n\nEnveloping the contours of a museum building or wall\, the blankets of jute fibers are meant to contrast with the monumentality of the institutional buildings and spaces they cover\, becoming remnants and traces that reference the hands of laborers\, the imprints of colonialism and the interference of Britain and the U.S. in Ghanaian history.\n\nThe project marks the first outdoor exhibition of Mahama's work in the United States. It is responsive to the present moment\, offering students and the broader community the opportunity to engage with the arts in a public space at a time when gatherings inside buildings and museums are limited.\n\nOct. 1-23: Large-Scale Public Art Installation\, U-M Museum of Art\, 525 S.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:CSEAS Virtual Viewing. *A Thousand Cuts*
DESCRIPTION:For a limited time\, we are sponsoring free access to this film's virtual viewing. For instructions\, please email cseas@umich.edu with the subject “Request to watch ‘A Thousand Cuts’”\n\nAbout the movie:\nOn June 15\, 2020\, journalist Maria Ressa was found guilty of cyber libel\, setting a ticking clock on the limited time she has to get her story out to the world and keep the fight for democracy alive in this all too familiar tale of an autocratic leader drowning out “fake news.” Nowhere is the worldwide erosion of democracy\, fueled by social media disinformation campaigns\, more starkly evident than in the authoritarian regime of Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte. Ressa places the tools of the free press—and her freedom—on the line in defense of truth and democracy. Ramona S. Diaz’s thrilling film follows key players from two sides of an increasingly dangerous war between press and government. As each side digs in\, we become witness to an epic and ongoing fight for the integrity of human life and truth itself—a conflict that extends beyond the Philippines into our own divisive backyard. A Film by Ramona S. Diaz (IMELDA\, MOTHERLAND).\n\nCosponsored by the Michigan Theater.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the 60s and 70s: Kaleidoscope
DESCRIPTION:The notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism in the midst of the political and cultural upheavals of the 1960s and 70s. Kaleidoscope\, UMMA’s third and final edition of this exhibition series\, examines the constantly changing practices of local Detroit artists\, women artists\, and artists of color as they actively embraced abstraction’s possibilities. Their strategies dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in a shifting American political landscape.\n\nSupport for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund\, and the Robert and Janet Miller Fund

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Collection Ensemble
DESCRIPTION:EXTRAORDINARY ARTISTS\, STARTLING WORKS OF ART\, PUT IN DIALOG FOR YOU TO DISCOVER \n \nCollection Ensemble presents the first major reinstallation of UMMA's iconic entry space in over a decade. It exchanges Alumni Memorial Hall's previous focus on European and American painting for a broad mix of American\, European\, African\, and Asian art from across media\, sampling the Museum's remarkable\, disparate holdings. The installation is organized into thematic and formal vignettes that respond to the concepts and ideas resonating from an extraordinary large-scale photograph of a vacant cathedral by contemporary German artist Candida Höfer. Featuring works of art by numerous famous and not-so-famous artists\, many of them artists of color and women—including Charles Alston\, Christo\, Theaster Gates\, Jenny Holzer\, Roni Horn\, Do-Ho Suh\, Kara Walker\, and others\, Collection Ensemble reimagines the collection not as a fixed entity with one set of meanings to be unearthed\, but instead as an active\, creative\, sometimes startling source of material and ideas\, open for debate and interpretation.\n \nRead the exhibition press release here.\n \nJOIN US FOR THE GRAND OPENING AT UMMA AFTER HOURS Tuesday\, April 2 7–10 p.m.\n \nGallery talks\, live music\, and more! This is a free event\, and all are welcome.\n\n

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | Zoom Webinar: \"Civic Solidarity: Sustaining Contention and Building Democratic Institutions in Contemporary Village China\"
DESCRIPTION:The Fall 2020 lecture series will be only available on-line as a Zoom webinar.\n   \n   Civic solidarity is an underexplored concept in sociology and political science. This talk unpacks its theoretical dimensions—what civic solidarity is\, how it is formed\, and what the social and political implications are. Through this lens\, Dr. Liu examines a puzzling phenomenon in contemporary rural China: Why are some villagers able to sustain contention and engage in building democratic institutions for self-rule?\n   \n   Jundai Liu is a WCED Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Michigan. She received her PhD in sociology from Harvard University in 2018. With comparative-historical and qualitative methods\, her research lies broadly in political sociology\, sociology of development\, and historical sociology\, with a focus on China and East Asia. Her current book project examines different patterns of villagers’ political behavior where there were major stakes and conflicts brought about by active land development in China.\n\nRegistration required. Zoom Registration Link: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Nb2ggIo4SsWPUQ8xPcDbNg\n\nCosponsored by the U-M Weiser Center for Emerging Democracies.
