You’ve immersed in flow, process, forms, revision, workshop—you know what you want to say, but how do you sound? Do you have a “signature” or a tone? A ‘tude? A range? How can a piece of writing “sound like” its author? This craft talk is meant to inspire, and challenge those writers working on their first manuscripts.

STS Distinguished Lecture. The Secret History of Rules: Algorithms, Laws, and Paradigms (February 4, 2022 11:00am) https://events.umich.edu/event/90460 90460-21671080@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Friday, February 4, 2022 11:00am
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Science, Technology & Society

Three clusters of meanings have defined what rules could be since antiquity: algorithms, laws, and paradigms. Two of these clusters are still very much with us: laws and rules still keep close company, and algorithms have become the prototypical rules. But the third cluster, centered on paradigms, is not only no longer synonymous with rules; it has come to be opposed to them – most famously in Thomas S. Kuhn’s The Structure of Scientific Revolutions (1962). Yet for over two thousand years, in both ancient and modern European languages, right through the Enlightenment, rules were paradigms – as well as laws and algorithms. This is the secret history of rules, reconstructed from examples of their pre-modern application.

Flash Talk | From Huts to Palaces: Understanding the Architecture of Rome's First Houses (February 4, 2022 12:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/90578 90578-21671841@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Friday, February 4, 2022 12:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Kelsey Museum of Archaeology

The old cliche says "Rome wasn't built in a day." However, Rome transformed from a city of mud huts to one of stone palaces within a fifty-year period, or one may even say, "a day." In this talk, IPCAA graduate student Amelia Eichengreen discusses Rome's changing architectural landscape from huts to palaces as well as the current state of the field, what the huts looked like, how they were used, and how they can help us to better understand Rome's earliest inhabitants.

Kelsey Museum Flash Talks are 15-minute Zoom lectures by Kelsey curators, staff members, researchers, and graduate students talking about their recent research or current projects. Each presentation is followed by 15 minutes of Q&A. Flash Talks are free and open to all visitors. They take place at noon on the first Friday of every month.

Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Museum Studies Program

The Museum Studies Program invites students enrolled in any graduate program at the University of Michigan to apply for the Fall 2022 cohort. This multidisciplinary graduate certificate program draws on ideas from the arts, humanities, natural and social sciences, and technology and provides countless opportunities to apply theories in a vast array of museums and cultural institutions on campus, in the region, nationally and around the world.
The MSP curriculum examines the role of museums in society as sites of memory, learning, research, cultural production, public scholarship, civic engagement, and entertainment. The 12-credit certificate program consists of the Museum Studies Seminar (Fall and Winter terms, 6 credits), approved electives (6 credits), and a funded internship. It prepares students for academic and professional careers in museums, heritage sites, arboretums, botanical gardens, zoos and other living collections, and universities.

Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Penny W Stamps School of Art & Design

We're starting the Winter 2022 series virtually with a selection of favorite presentations from the archives. This Penny Stamps Distinguished Speaker Series event originally took place on September 18, 2014.
Founding members of the art collective Pussy Riot and Zona Prava, Nadya Tolokonnikova and Masha Alekhina are Russian conceptual artists and political activists. In August 2012, following an anti-Putin performance in Moscow Cathedral of Christ the Saviour, they were sentenced to two years' imprisonment. In March 2014 they opened the Mordovia office of Zona Prava, their newly created prisoners’ rights NGO. Tolokonnikova and Alekhina are Lennon Ono Grant for Peace recipients.
Pussy Riot is a feminist punk guerilla performance collective of approximately 11 women. Their unauthorized public performances address feminism, LGBT rights, and opposition to Russian President Putin.
Zona Prava (Zone of Rights) was founded by Nadya and Masha on their December 2013 release from prison. The goal of Zona Prava is to aid those in prison who are ready and willing to fight for their rights. The organization provides information, legal representation, safety monitoring, advocacy and oversight.
