SUMMARY:Exhibition:4\,000 Years for Choice
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition combines two projects by graphic designer Heather Ault. \"4\,000 Years for Choice\" is an exhibition of posters about the age-old practice of abortion and contraception as a means to reclaim reproductive freedom as a deeply personal and life-sustaining act existing throughout all of human history. The \"Reproductive Roots\" series shines a bright light on the many voices from the abortion care and reproductive justice movements\, using vividly designed social media graphics and notecards to inspire conversations from a breadth of perspectives. \n\nHeather Ault is a visual artist\, pro-choice activist\, and independent scholar creating artwork to shift conversations about reproductive rights and justice. She uses vibrant graphics\, affirmative language\, and historical accounts to transform ugly discord into visual narratives that are beautiful and empowering.\n\nThe exhibition is presented by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women's Studies Department. It is cosponsored by the Program for Sexual Rights and Reproductive Justice\, the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design. \n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Paperweights & Studio Glass
DESCRIPTION:The American studio glass movement started in 1962 with glass workshops held at the Toledo Museum of Art. The workshops\, taught by Harvey Littleton along with scientist Dominick Labino\, introduced a small furnace built for working glass that made it possible for artists to work in independent studios. The studio glass movement quickly spread north to Michigan\, and in 1982\, a decision was made that studio glass would be the focus of the University of Michigan-Dearborn permanent art collection\, which is housed at the Alfred Berkowitz Gallery. This exhibition is a portion of that collection\, spotlighting studio glass art by major artists working in the medium\, including Dominick Labino\, Marvin Lipofsky and Richard Ritter.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: Plainly Spoken
DESCRIPTION:View a range of binding ideas that came to fruition: models that replicate books from a historical period\, cut-aways that visually reveal their hidden structure\, design bindings that interpret a concept from the text\, and artists’ bindings that play with structures and materials to create something new.\n\nIn this traveling exhibit the Midwest Chapter of the Guild of Book Workers showcases archivist and book conservator Julia Miller’s text Books Will Speak Plain. Incorporating 30 years of her notes and observations\, the 500-page handbook is aimed at conservators\, collectors\, librarians\, and book lovers\, for the identification and description of book structures and styles. Bookbinders from across the country acquired the text of the book in folded sheets and\, months later\, presented them to a jury as completed books with custom bindings.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Digital Pedagogy Series: Ryan Cordell
DESCRIPTION:This talk will draw on Ryan Cordell's experiences teaching digital-humanities-inflected courses at both a liberal arts college and a research university. He will reflect on the reasons undergraduates often do not share their instructors' fascination with defining or theorizing digital humanities qua digital humanities.\n\nRather than dwelling on such debates\, Cordell will contend that digital humanities instructors should embrace undergraduate disinterest in the subject as an aid to curricular incursion. The workshop will help participants develop strategies for effectively introducing digital methods as routine aspects of scholarly practice. \n\nRyan Cordell is assistant professor of English at Northeastern University and core founding faculty member in the NULab for Texts\, Maps\, and Networks. His scholarship focuses on convergences among literary\, periodical\, and religious culture in antebellum American mass media.\n\nFor additional information\, please click here: https://www.si.umich.edu/events/201403/digital-pedagogy-series-ryan-cordell

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Ice Cream Social and Talk with Ben and Jerry's Chairman Jeff Furman
DESCRIPTION:Chairman of the Board of Directors of Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream\, Jeff Furman will describe the early days of the company in the 1980s and explain how a desire to give away ice cream and hold fun community celebrations evolved into a dynamic social mission\, with actions that propelled Ben & Jerry's into being a leader in the field of socially responsible business. \n\nJeff Furman helped create the company's original business plan in a gas station in 1982 and became Chairman of the independent Board of Directors in 2010. As an insider in Ben & Jerry's for the whole 35-year history\, he will share the stories about the sale\, the transition afterward\, and the company's social mission today: still alive\, growing\, meaningful and relevant.\n\nA free ice cream social featuring Ben & Jerry's ice cream follows the talk\, where Furman will sign copies of the book \"Ice Cream Social: The Struggle for the Soul of Ben and Jerry's.\" All proceeds from the book sale go to charity.\n\nSponsored by the School of Information\, with support from Innovate Blue\, Innovation and Social Entrepreneurship at the School of Public Health\, and the Ross School of Business.\n\nPhoto credit: Zach Furman

DESCRIPTION:\"How Not to Teach Digital Humanities\" will draw on Cordell's experiences teaching digital-humanities-inflected courses at both a liberal arts college and a research university to reflect on the reasons undergraduates often do not share their instructors' fascination with defining or theorizing digital humanities qua digital humanities. Rather than dwelling on such debates\, Cordell will contend that DH instructors should embrace undergraduate disinterest in DH as an aid to curricular incursion. The workshop will help participants develop strategies for effectively introducing digital methods as routine aspects of scholarly practice.\n\nRyan Cordell is Assistant Professor of English at Northeastern University and Core Founding Faculty Member in the NULab for Texts\, Maps\, and Networks. His scholarship focuses on convergences among literary\, periodical\, and religious culture in antebellum American mass media. Prof. Cordell is collaborating with colleagues in English\, History\, and Computer Science on an NEH-funded project using robust data mining tools to discover borrowed texts across large-scale archives of antebellum texts. These “viral texts” help us to trace lines of influence among antebellum writers and editors\, and to construct a model of viral textuality in the period. Cordell is Co-Editor-in-Chief of centerNet’s forthcoming new journal\, DHCommons\, and he also writes about technology in higher education for the group blog ProfHacker at the Chronicle of Higher Education.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Research Through Making
DESCRIPTION:Historically\, research and creative practice have been constructed as \"opposites.\" This is not an unusual struggle in architecture schools\, particularly in the context of a research university. This perceived tension between design and research is indicative of age-old anxieties within the architecture field to understand its nature as an \"applied art.\" Design can be a purely creative activity not unlike creative practices in music and art. In other cases\, design can be a purely problem solving activity\, not unlike research in engineering and industrial production.\n\nIn its fifth year\, University of Michigan Taubman College's Research Through Making (RTM) Program provides seed funding for faculty research\, worked on by faculty\, students and interdisciplinary experts. The exhibition presents tangible results of their collaborative work.\nThis year's projects:\n\n\"City of Nights: Detroit Illuminated\": Karl Daubmann\, Osman Kahn (UM Art and Design) and Catie Newell\n\"PneuSystems\": Kathy Velikov\, Geoffrey Thun\, and Santinder Singh Baveja (UM College of Engineering)\n\"Displace\": Wes McGee\, Catie Newell\, and Brandon Weiner (UM library)\n\"Carbon Fiber Architecture\": Glenn Wilcox and Anca Trandafirescu\n\"Knit Architectures\": Sean Ahlquist\, Wes McGee\, Anthony Waas (UM Engineering)\, and Georg Essl (UM Engineering)\n

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Special Event
DESCRIPTION:Comprising over four years of footage\, From Gulf to Gulf to Gulf (83 min\, 2013\, video) is the result of a collaboration between the Indian art collective CAMP and a group of sailors from the Kutch district in western India. A modern adventure on the high seas (captured with cell phone cameras and set to a soundtrack of old and new Bollywood\, Pakistani\, and local religious songs chosen by the sailors)\, the film captures workaday life and lazy hours as the sailors ferry everything from electronics to livestock from the Persian Gulf to the Gulf of Aden to the Somali coast and back again. \n\n\"The film is beautiful and buoyant and engrossing in big picture and small detail ways.\" -The New York Times \n\nThe screening will be followed by a Q&A with the artists. \n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Yasufumi Nakamori Lecture\, \"For a New World to Come: Experiments with the Camera\, 1968-1979 Japan\"
DESCRIPTION:In this lecture Nakamori will shed light on Japanese art and photography primarily from the 1970s - a subject that is less known outside Japan\, and that is characterized by the intense search for new directions by select artists and photographers\, after the 1960s\, when the force of avant-garde art and the tension in politics peaked. Nakamori will argue that during the 1970s select artists and photographers devoted themselves to experiments with the camera\, individually searching for new and vital directions in their practice\, exploring such emerging notions as conceptualism\, postmodernism\, and contemporaneity. Nakamori will make a case for the emergence of a shared field of practice between art and photography\, and for the critical role that photography played in the emergence and development of conceptualism in the 1970s Japan\, paralleling and sometimes preceding the global evolution of diverse conceptual practices.\n\nYasufumi Nakamori is an associate curator of photography at the Museum of Fine Arts\, Houston\, where he focuses on art and photography made after 1900. Nakamori also teaches the history of modern and contemporary Japanese art and architecture at Rice University. As an expert on the interdisciplinary field of the photography\, architecture and visual culture of 20th-century Japan\, he has recently authored scholarly essays\, including \"Tange Kenzo's Early Photographs and the Tradition Debate (dento ronso)\" in Kenzo Tange: Architecture for the World (Lars Müller Publishers / Harvard Graduate School of Design 2012). In 2011\, Nakamori won an Alfred H. Barr Jr. award from the College Art Association for his publication Katsura: Picturing Modernism in Japanese Architecture\, Photographs by Ishimoto Yasuhiro (MFAH in association with Yale University Press 2010).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Legacy of Jan Karski: The Mission Continues
DESCRIPTION:Krzysztof Hoffmann\, Fulbright Visiting Professor\, U-M\; assistant professor of Polish\, Adam Mickiewicz University.\n\n2014 was announced by the Polish government as “The Year of Jan Karski” to honor\, on the 100th anniversary of his birth\, the legacy of Poland’s wartime emissary. Karski was the first man who gave a credible report about the Holocaust atrocities and its scale. He was able to support it with his first-hand testimony: during his numerous missions Karski twice infiltrated Warsaw’s Jewish Ghetto and also witnessed the horror of a transit camp. Subsequently\, he spread his report among the Allies – he met with F. D. Roosevelt to give his account. When President Obama was justifying his decision of giving the highest civilian honor\, the Presidential Medal of Freedom\, to Jan Karski\, he said: “We must tell our children about how this evil was allowed to happen ”¦ because so many others stood silent. But let us also tell our children about the Righteous Among the Nations.” The lecture will focus on the life and heritage of the Polish hero.\n\nKrzysztof Hoffmann is a Fulbright Visiting Professor at the University of Michigan and an assistant professor in the Faculty of Polish and Classical Philology at Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznan\, Poland. A graduate of Adam Mickiewicz University\, he studied also in Sweden and France. Hoffman’s research focuses on contemporary Polish literature and literary criticism. He wrote Dubitatio. O poezji Eugeniusza Tkaczyszyna-Dyckiego (2012). His monograph Poezja jako jezyk mozliwy filozofii (Poetry as a Potential Language for Philosophy) and his translation to Polish of J.H. Miller’s On Literature will be published in 2014.\n\nSponsors: U-M Polish Student Association\, Polish American Congress-Ann Arbor Chapter\, Copernicus\, Department of Slavic Languages & Literatures

DESCRIPTION:View a range of binding ideas that came to fruition: models that replicate books from a historical period\, cut-aways that visually reveal their hidden structure\, design bindings that interpret a concept from the text\, and artists’ bindings that play with structures and materials to create something new.\n\nIn this traveling exhibit the Midwest Chapter of the Guild of Book Workers showcases archivist and book conservator Julia Miller’s text Books Will Speak Plain. Incorporating 30 years of her notes and observations\, the 500-page handbook is aimed at conservators\, collectors\, librarians\, and book lovers\, for the identification and description of book structures and styles. Bookbinders from across the country acquired the text of the book in folded sheets and\, months later\, presented them to a jury as completed books with custom bindings.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Research Through Making
DESCRIPTION:Historically\, research and creative practice have been constructed as \"opposites.\" This is not an unusual struggle in architecture schools\, particularly in the context of a research university. This perceived tension between design and research is indicative of age-old anxieties within the architecture field to understand its nature as an \"applied art.\" Design can be a purely creative activity not unlike creative practices in music and art. In other cases\, design can be a purely problem solving activity\, not unlike research in engineering and industrial production.\n\nIn its fifth year\, University of Michigan Taubman College's Research Through Making (RTM) Program provides seed funding for faculty research\, worked on by faculty\, students and interdisciplinary experts. The exhibition presents tangible results of their collaborative work.\nThis year's projects:\n\n\"City of Nights: Detroit Illuminated\": Karl Daubmann\, Osman Kahn (UM Art and Design) and Catie Newell\n\"PneuSystems\": Kathy Velikov\, Geoffrey Thun\, and Santinder Singh Baveja (UM College of Engineering)\n\"Displace\": Wes McGee\, Catie Newell\, and Brandon Weiner (UM library)\n\"Carbon Fiber Architecture\": Glenn Wilcox and Anca Trandafirescu\n\"Knit Architectures\": Sean Ahlquist\, Wes McGee\, Anthony Waas (UM Engineering)\, and Georg Essl (UM Engineering)\n

SUMMARY:Performance:Brian Vander Ark w/sg Jen Chapin
DESCRIPTION:Brian Vander Ark was the lead singer of the Verve Pipe\, which became one of Michigan's biggest rock bands of the last decade with songs like the number-one hit \"The Freshmen.\" In 2001 he appeared as part of the band Blood Pollution in the Mark Wahlberg movie \"Rock Star.\" Then he lit out on his own\, selling all his possessions and rediscovering his love of performing. He has charisma to spare! On his studio albums\, plus several more or less official live releases (an Ark show is a good place to pick up the more obscure items)\, Brian has taken up personal themes of family\, love\, and loss. The Grand Rapids Press hails Brian's way of \"adroitly meshing acoustic grace with penetrating rock and pop power.\" His latest studio album\, self-titled\, has won raves\, and he seems to have been reinvigorated by the recent release of a great Verve Pipe kids' CD. Brian Vander Ark comes to Ann Arbor with a new release\, \"Live from Midland\, America.\" Songwriter Jen Chapin (daughter of Harry) is special guest.

DESCRIPTION:View a range of binding ideas that came to fruition: models that replicate books from a historical period\, cut-aways that visually reveal their hidden structure\, design bindings that interpret a concept from the text\, and artists’ bindings that play with structures and materials to create something new.\n\nIn this traveling exhibit the Midwest Chapter of the Guild of Book Workers showcases archivist and book conservator Julia Miller’s text Books Will Speak Plain. Incorporating 30 years of her notes and observations\, the 500-page handbook is aimed at conservators\, collectors\, librarians\, and book lovers\, for the identification and description of book structures and styles. Bookbinders from across the country acquired the text of the book in folded sheets and\, months later\, presented them to a jury as completed books with custom bindings.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Special Event
DESCRIPTION:Directed by filmmaker and author Noel Burch (b.1932) and the late artist\, photographer and filmmaker Allan Sekula (1951-2013). The \"forgotten space\" of Sekula and Burch's essay film is the sea\, the oceans through which 90% of the world's cargo now passes. At the heart of this space is the container box\, which\, since its invention in the 1950s\, has become one of the most important mechanisms for the global spread of capitalism. \n\nThe film (112 min\, 2010\, video) follows the container box along the international supply chain\, from ships to barges\, trains\, and trucks\, mapping the byzantine networks that connect producers to consumers (and more and more frequently\, producing nations to consuming ones). Visiting the major ports of Rotterdam\, Los Angeles\, Hong Kong\, Guangdong province\, and many places between\, it connects the economic puzzle pieces that corporations and governments would prefer remain scattered. \n\n\"The Forgotten Space begins as an investigative documentary and concludes as a mythopoeic essay on modernity and the sea.\" -Artforum

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Research Through Making
DESCRIPTION:Historically\, research and creative practice have been constructed as \"opposites.\" This is not an unusual struggle in architecture schools\, particularly in the context of a research university. This perceived tension between design and research is indicative of age-old anxieties within the architecture field to understand its nature as an \"applied art.\" Design can be a purely creative activity not unlike creative practices in music and art. In other cases\, design can be a purely problem solving activity\, not unlike research in engineering and industrial production.\n\nIn its fifth year\, University of Michigan Taubman College's Research Through Making (RTM) Program provides seed funding for faculty research\, worked on by faculty\, students and interdisciplinary experts. The exhibition presents tangible results of their collaborative work.\nThis year's projects:\n\n\"City of Nights: Detroit Illuminated\": Karl Daubmann\, Osman Kahn (UM Art and Design) and Catie Newell\n\"PneuSystems\": Kathy Velikov\, Geoffrey Thun\, and Santinder Singh Baveja (UM College of Engineering)\n\"Displace\": Wes McGee\, Catie Newell\, and Brandon Weiner (UM library)\n\"Carbon Fiber Architecture\": Glenn Wilcox and Anca Trandafirescu\n\"Knit Architectures\": Sean Ahlquist\, Wes McGee\, Anthony Waas (UM Engineering)\, and Georg Essl (UM Engineering)\n

SUMMARY:Performance:Noah Gundersen w/sg Doug Paisley
DESCRIPTION:At the tender age of 24\, Noah Gundersen is already a young veteran. Born in the tiny town of Centralia\, Washington–about midway between Portland and Seattle–Gundersen has honed his craft through a series of albums\, both solo (with his sister Abby\, an expert string player) and with their band The Courage. He’s already placed songs on TV shows like \"Sons of Anarchy\" \"Vampire Diaries\,\" and \"One Tree Hill.\" (“Middle of June” from his 2009 EP Saints and Liars). His full-length solo debut\, \"Ledges\,\" represents the latest stop in a journey that began in his strictly conservative\, religious home growing up\, where he was strictly forbidden to listen to secular music. Instead he grew up listening to Bob Dylan’s gospel albums\, along with Christian artists such as Keith Green\, Larry Norman\, and Rich Mullins. “I’m not a religious person anymore\, but I’ve learned that spiritual energy transcends religion and that’s something I’ve attempted to incorporate into my music\,” Noah explains. An impressive personal work\, Ledges co-mingles the sensual and the sexual with the spiritual\, often using religious and biblical imagery\, much like Leonard Cohen\, to plumb the depths of everyday emotions and feelings. Songwriter and \"anti-star\"(Mojo) Doug Paisley is tonight's special guest.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:4\,000 Years for Choice
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition combines two projects by graphic designer Heather Ault. \"4\,000 Years for Choice\" is an exhibition of posters about the age-old practice of abortion and contraception as a means to reclaim reproductive freedom as a deeply personal and life-sustaining act existing throughout all of human history. The \"Reproductive Roots\" series shines a bright light on the many voices from the abortion care and reproductive justice movements\, using vividly designed social media graphics and notecards to inspire conversations from a breadth of perspectives. \n\nHeather Ault is a visual artist\, pro-choice activist\, and independent scholar creating artwork to shift conversations about reproductive rights and justice. She uses vibrant graphics\, affirmative language\, and historical accounts to transform ugly discord into visual narratives that are beautiful and empowering.\n\nThe exhibition is presented by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women's Studies Department. It is cosponsored by the Program for Sexual Rights and Reproductive Justice\, the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design. \n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Paperweights & Studio Glass
DESCRIPTION:The American studio glass movement started in 1962 with glass workshops held at the Toledo Museum of Art. The workshops\, taught by Harvey Littleton along with scientist Dominick Labino\, introduced a small furnace built for working glass that made it possible for artists to work in independent studios. The studio glass movement quickly spread north to Michigan\, and in 1982\, a decision was made that studio glass would be the focus of the University of Michigan-Dearborn permanent art collection\, which is housed at the Alfred Berkowitz Gallery. This exhibition is a portion of that collection\, spotlighting studio glass art by major artists working in the medium\, including Dominick Labino\, Marvin Lipofsky and Richard Ritter.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Can Climate Policy be Economically Advantageous?
DESCRIPTION:Class meets Mondays\, March 31 - June 2. No class on May 26.\n\nThe book \"The Climate Fix\" by Roger A. Pielke\, Jr. will be read and discussed. Pielke describes his new concept of \"the iron law of climate policy.\" It dictates that when climate policy and economics are placed in opposition to each other\, economics always wins. His focus on adaptation to climate change sidesteps the unending debate over climate change and opens the possibility of effective action that places \"human dignity and democratic ideals at the center of climate policies.\" Sydney Kaufman\, who has previously led study groups on climate change at OLLI\, will lead the first discussion. Volunteers will lead discussions of the remaining chapters. Please read Chapter 1 for the first class. \n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Digital Islam: How the Internet & Social Media are Reshaping the Islamic Marketplace in Central Asia
DESCRIPTION:Internet and social media are slowly beginning to revolutionize the Islamic marketplace of ideas for Central Asians. In spite of the efforts of authoritarian governments and the region’s status on the periphery of the Islamic world\, advances in communications technology and large-scale migration are allowing Central Asians to increasingly participate in trans-national Islamic discourses through digital media.  Religious quarrels between Saudi Salafi scholars and competing styles of Islamically-inspired women’s fashion from Turkey or Egypt can now inform debates about how to be a good Muslim among young Uzbeks and Kazakhs who have no personal connection to the Middle East. A new generation of Islamic scholars educated and living abroad increase the representation of trans-national Islam\, often translating texts and popular religious media and sharing them through social media and sites supported by foreign religious foundations dedicated to popularizing piety and often “purifying” Central Asian beliefs and practices. This workshop will examine the medium and the messages in this expanding marketplace\, draw comparisons both within the region (with scholars working in Uzbek\, Kazakh\, and Tajik) and with other contexts where this process is already well underway\, and lay the foundations for a larger research project to explore the issues in detail and try to assess their social impact. \n\n2:00-4:15 Presentations followed by Q&A\n\n4:15-4:30 Coffee Break \n\n4:30-5:30 Round table discussion \n\nThis event is co-sponsored by CMENAS.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Korean-Japanese Marriages in Colonial Korea
DESCRIPTION:As is well known\, the strict administrative control over the sexual mixing of the colonizers and colonized always constituted an important element in the European colonial policies. In Korea\, colonized by Japanese in 1910\, the situation was somewhat different. Not unlike the European colonies in Asia\, the administration of the colonial Korea was predicated on the ethno-racial hierarchy in the relationship between “natives” and Japanese settlers. However\, in the perspective the Koreans were supposed to be assimilated into the ranks of full-blown “Imperial subjects”\, and intermarriage\, seen as a strong assimilation tool\, was seen by the colonial administrators in a positive light. The renewed emphasis was placed on the Korean-Japanese marriages in the end of the 1930s\, as Korea’s resources were to be fully used in the all-out war-time mobilization. By the end of 1941\, 5\,747 registered mixed couples resided in Korea only\; significant number of such marriages\, not reflected in the colonial statistics\, also took place in Japan proper.\n\nThe present talk will focus on how such marriages were perceived by the Japanese settler society and the colonized. On the Japanese administration’s side\, the expectation was that “blood ties” between the two ethnic groups would bring a “union of emotions” between them dispelling the anti-colonial nationalist sentiments of the colonized and curbing down the anti-Korean colonial racism of the Japanese settlers. The literary works by the Korean authors dealing with the issues of mixed Korean-Japanese marriage and mixed offspring\, which I will analyze in this presentation\, show\, however\, that the reality was completely different. Ethnic discrimination often overlapped with the patterns of class-based exclusion and was complexly entangled with the patriarchal customs and legal practices. We will also see that it was sometimes the anti-systemic\, “subversive” ideology and practice\, rather than “blood ties” per se that could bring the Japanese and Koreans together\, to experience solidarity in the ways the colonial administrators disapproved of.\n\nVladimir Tikhonov\n\nBorn in Leningrad (St-Petersburg) in the former USSR (1973) and educated at St-Petersburg State University (MA:1994) and Moscow State University (Ph.D. in ancient Korean history\, 1996). Vladimir Tikhonov (Korean name – Pak Noja) has worked for Russian State University of Humanities (1996)\, KyungHee University (1997-2000) and for Oslo University as associate professor (2000-2006) and as a full professor (from 2006). His main field is the history of ideas in early modern Korea\, particularly Social Darwinist influences in the formative period of Korean nationalism in the 1880s-1910s. Another major area of Tikhonov’s research is the history of Korean Buddhism in modern times\, particularly in connection with nationalism and militarist violence. His book\, Usung yolp’ae ui sinhwa (The Myth of the Survival of the Fittest\, 2005) is one of the first monographic studies of Social Darwinism in modern Korea and its relations to Korean nationalism. The same topic has been dealt with in English in his Social Darwinism and Nationalism in Korea: The Beginnings (1880s-1910s) (Brill\, 2010). Recently\, he edited\, together with Torkel Brekke\, a book on the connections between Buddhism and militarism in Asia: Buddhism and Violence: Militarism and Buddhism in Modern Asia (Routledge\, 2012). He also regularly contributes to South Korea’s liberal and progressive media\, including socialist website www.redian.org

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:13th Peter M. Wege Lecture on Sustainability
DESCRIPTION:Biomimicry is the practice of learning from and then emulating life’s best ideas to create a more sustainable world. By mimicking nature's time-tested strategies\, biomimics are learning to capture fog like a desert beetle\, preserve vaccines like a resurrection fern\, resist bacteria like a shark\, and gather energy like a leaf. Based on 3.8 billion of years of R&D\, these designs sip energy\, shave material use\, eliminate toxins\, and turn waste into opportunities. \n\nOnce a specialty science\, Biomimicry has spread virally in the last 15 years. Hundreds of Biomimicry start-ups are making headlines with nature-inspired technologies that solve global challenges and disrupt business as usual. Leading companies such as Natura\, Arup\, Airbus\, Boeing\, HOK\, IDEO\, Interface\, Levi’s\, and Nike use biomimicry in their labs as well as their boardrooms\, finding inspiration for product and management redesign. \n\nSince the publication of her seminal book\, Biomimicry: Innovation Inspired by Nature\, Janine Benyus and her colleagues at Biomimicry 3.8 have developed a methodology for bio-inspired design while introducing millions to its potential. They’ve worked with over 250 corporate clients and professors from more than 100 universities to embed biomimicry in both design and decisionmaking. They’ve been “biologists at the design table” with some of the world’s greatest innovators\, reimagining everything from solar manufacture to city planning.  In this talk\, Janine will give an insider’s view of the latest biomimicry advances on the drawing board and in the market. She’ll discuss the worldwide spread of the meme\, and how it is being heralded as a “one of the top 20 breakthrough business ideas” (Harvard Business Review\, HBR List)\, “a paradigm shift for the world of design” (Smithsonian National Design Awards)\, and “one of 10 innovations that will change the way you manufacture” (Society of Manufacturing Engineers). At this critical tipping-point for the field\, she’ll describe what’s needed to take biomimicry global while cultivating ethical thought leadership that will focus Biomimicry on what’s worth doing.  Come learn what all the excitement is about from the founder of this practical\, radical\, and powerfully hopeful approach to innovation. Hear what happens when inventors become nature’s apprentices\, creating world-changing technologies that create conditions conducive to all Life.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:4\,000 Years for Choice
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition combines two projects by graphic designer Heather Ault. \"4\,000 Years for Choice\" is an exhibition of posters about the age-old practice of abortion and contraception as a means to reclaim reproductive freedom as a deeply personal and life-sustaining act existing throughout all of human history. The \"Reproductive Roots\" series shines a bright light on the many voices from the abortion care and reproductive justice movements\, using vividly designed social media graphics and notecards to inspire conversations from a breadth of perspectives. \n\nHeather Ault is a visual artist\, pro-choice activist\, and independent scholar creating artwork to shift conversations about reproductive rights and justice. She uses vibrant graphics\, affirmative language\, and historical accounts to transform ugly discord into visual narratives that are beautiful and empowering.\n\nThe exhibition is presented by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women's Studies Department. It is cosponsored by the Program for Sexual Rights and Reproductive Justice\, the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design. \n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Paperweights & Studio Glass
DESCRIPTION:The American studio glass movement started in 1962 with glass workshops held at the Toledo Museum of Art. The workshops\, taught by Harvey Littleton along with scientist Dominick Labino\, introduced a small furnace built for working glass that made it possible for artists to work in independent studios. The studio glass movement quickly spread north to Michigan\, and in 1982\, a decision was made that studio glass would be the focus of the University of Michigan-Dearborn permanent art collection\, which is housed at the Alfred Berkowitz Gallery. This exhibition is a portion of that collection\, spotlighting studio glass art by major artists working in the medium\, including Dominick Labino\, Marvin Lipofsky and Richard Ritter.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Erica Lehrer and Magdalena Waligórska: \"[Polish] Gentiles doing Jewish stuff...and the Jews who love/hate them\"
DESCRIPTION:Two books\, two perspectives\, one destination: Krakow Poland's historical Jewish quarter of Kazimierz. American cultural anthropologist Erica Lehrer and Polish cultural historian Magdalena Waligórska explore a phenomenon that has attracted a great deal of attention and provoked many controversies: Jewish heritage revival in Poland. Described as the world’s largest Jewish cemetery and the realm of “virtual Jewishness\,” Poland is a space where the non-Jewish interest in things Jewish has been looked upon with particular scepticism. Lehrer\, with Jewish Poland Revisited\, and Waligórska\, with Klezmer’s Afterlife\, venture into this territory\, both fascinating and fraught with tension\, giving a fresh glimpse into the backstage of the Jewish heritage industry.\n\nIn this joint book presentation\, the authors will read excerpts of their books and discuss Jewish heritage revival as a space of profound encounter for Jews and non-Jews.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Menorahs in Color: Polychromy in Jewish Visual Culture of Roman Antiquity
DESCRIPTION:In recent years\, polychromy has developed as a significant area of research in the study of classical art. This lecture explores the significance of this work for interpreting Jewish visual culture during Roman antiquity\, through the focal lens of the Arch of Titus Digital Restoration Project. In July 2012\, this project discovered that the Arch of Titus menorah was originally colored with yellow ochre paint. The article begins by presenting the general field of polychromy research\, which has developed in recent years and resulted in significant museum exhibitions in Europe and the US. It then turns to resistance to polychromy studies among art historians\, often called\n“chromophobia\,” and to uniquely Jewish early twentieth century variants that claimed that Jews were especially prone to colorblindness. After surveying earlier research on polychromy in Jewish contexts\, we turn to polychromy in ancient Palestinian synagogue literature and art. Finally\, the article explores the significance of polychromy for the study of the Arch of Titus menorah panel\, and more broadly considers the importance of polychromy studies for contextualizing Jewish attitudes toward Roman religious art (avodah zarah).\n

SUMMARY:Performance:Carmen Souza
DESCRIPTION:\"Carmen Souza's voice purrs like kernels of corn swirling on a traditional wooden platter one moment and bursts with a perfect blue note the next\,\" says Rock Paper Scissors. Carmen was born in Lisbon\, Portugal\, into a Cape Verdean family and grew up speaking Portuguese and Cape Verdean Creole. As a teen she sang in a Portuguese gospel choir until she was discovered by bassist and producer Theo Pas'cal\, who introduced her to jazz\, fusion\, and other contemporary sounds. Carmen wanted to create a new sound\, in her ancestors' Creole dialect\, that would mix traditional African and Cape Verde rhythms like Batuke\, Morna\, Cola djon\, and others\, with her jazz and contemporary influences\, in a totally intimate and acoustic vibe\, different from the traditional festive environment of Cape Verdean sounds. It's a bewitching mix\, and Carmen has become a European sensation. She's making her debut appearance at The Ark this evening.\n\nU-M students: No tickets necessary–the show is free at the door with U-M ID.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:4\,000 Years for Choice
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition combines two projects by graphic designer Heather Ault. \"4\,000 Years for Choice\" is an exhibition of posters about the age-old practice of abortion and contraception as a means to reclaim reproductive freedom as a deeply personal and life-sustaining act existing throughout all of human history. The \"Reproductive Roots\" series shines a bright light on the many voices from the abortion care and reproductive justice movements\, using vividly designed social media graphics and notecards to inspire conversations from a breadth of perspectives. \n\nHeather Ault is a visual artist\, pro-choice activist\, and independent scholar creating artwork to shift conversations about reproductive rights and justice. She uses vibrant graphics\, affirmative language\, and historical accounts to transform ugly discord into visual narratives that are beautiful and empowering.\n\nThe exhibition is presented by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women's Studies Department. It is cosponsored by the Program for Sexual Rights and Reproductive Justice\, the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design. \n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Paperweights & Studio Glass
DESCRIPTION:The American studio glass movement started in 1962 with glass workshops held at the Toledo Museum of Art. The workshops\, taught by Harvey Littleton along with scientist Dominick Labino\, introduced a small furnace built for working glass that made it possible for artists to work in independent studios. The studio glass movement quickly spread north to Michigan\, and in 1982\, a decision was made that studio glass would be the focus of the University of Michigan-Dearborn permanent art collection\, which is housed at the Alfred Berkowitz Gallery. This exhibition is a portion of that collection\, spotlighting studio glass art by major artists working in the medium\, including Dominick Labino\, Marvin Lipofsky and Richard Ritter.

DESCRIPTION:View a range of binding ideas that came to fruition: models that replicate books from a historical period\, cut-aways that visually reveal their hidden structure\, design bindings that interpret a concept from the text\, and artists’ bindings that play with structures and materials to create something new.\n\nIn this traveling exhibit the Midwest Chapter of the Guild of Book Workers showcases archivist and book conservator Julia Miller’s text Books Will Speak Plain. Incorporating 30 years of her notes and observations\, the 500-page handbook is aimed at conservators\, collectors\, librarians\, and book lovers\, for the identification and description of book structures and styles. Bookbinders from across the country acquired the text of the book in folded sheets and\, months later\, presented them to a jury as completed books with custom bindings.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CREES Noon Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Peter Holquist\, associate professor of history\, University of Pennsylvania\n\nMany people identify the concept of “crimes against humanity” with the Nuremberg Trial and believe the term arose as a reaction to the Holocaust. In fact\, the first use of the concept in a penal sense came three decades before\, in the Allies’ May 24\, 1915 Note to the Ottoman government regarding the Armenian genocide. This presentation will  examine three stages of the emergence of this concept: first\, the 19th-century precedents of the concept of “crimes against humanity”\; second\, the negotiations and drafting of the Allies’ 1915 note and debates around the use of the term “crimes against humanity” (a note initiated and drafted by the Russian government\, which also introduced this key term to the note)\; and\, finally\, the fate of the concept in the interwar years\, leading up to the Nuremberg Trials in 1945-46. In particular\, the presentation will trace the remarkable and overlooked role of imperial Russia in the development and usage of this concept.\n\nPeter Holquist received his Ph.D. with distinction from Columbia University in 1995. Prior to joining Penn’s History Department as associate professor in Fall 2006\, he taught for nine years at Cornell University. Holquist’s teaching and research focus on the history of Russia and modern Europe. He is the author of Making War\, Forging Revolution: Russia’s Continuum of Crisis\, 1914-1921 (Harvard\, 2002). He is also founder and editor of the journal Kritika: Explorations in Russian and Eurasian History and serves as editor for the Kritika Historical Studies. He has published articles on Russia”˜s experience in the First World War and Russian Revolution\, questions of continuity and change from the imperial period into the Stalin era\, and other topics. Holquist’s current project\, \"By Right of War\,\" explores the emergence of the international law of war in the late 19th and early 20th century. The project asks by what means\, and to what degree\, can one bring people’s conduct\, even in extremis\, into line with normative and ethical prescriptions.\n\nWorld War I was a major turning point in world history that brought Europe’s long nineteenth century to a close and ushered in the conflicts of the twentieth century. Beginning in 2014\, the Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia is sponsoring a series of programs–WWI 1914-2014: Reflecting on the 100th Anniversary of WWI–that examine the many ways that WWI changed Europe’s place in the world.\n\nSponsors: CREES\, ASP\, CES

SUMMARY:Performance:Richard Shindell
DESCRIPTION:Richard Shindell is a New Yorker living in Argentina: a craftsman and a real wizard of song. He's played for coins in the Paris subway\, and he's studied for the priesthood. His gift for profound storytelling songs drew him into the world of folk music. Richard Shindell champions the downtrodden\, exalts the disaffected\, skewers prejudice\, war\, and religious intolerance. He steps into and fully inhabits the various personalities his songs create–some of them female. In the words of No Depression\, \"Shindell tells great stories with an eye for critical detail while never losing sight of the big picture. He works a well-worn stretch of singer-songwriter pavement\, but his wonderfully spiritual lyrical sense and intimate compositions ultimately distinguish him.\" Of his latest release\, \"Not Far Now\,\" the Valley Advocate in Massachusetts writes\, \"This may be the best release of the decade. ”¦ The thinking man's folk singer has just raised the bar.\" \n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:4\,000 Years for Choice
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition combines two projects by graphic designer Heather Ault. \"4\,000 Years for Choice\" is an exhibition of posters about the age-old practice of abortion and contraception as a means to reclaim reproductive freedom as a deeply personal and life-sustaining act existing throughout all of human history.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Paperweights & Studio Glass
DESCRIPTION:The American studio glass movement started in 1962 with glass workshops held at the Toledo Museum of Art. The workshops\, taught by Harvey Littleton along with scientist Dominick Labino\, introduced a small furnace built for working glass that made it possible for artists to work in independent studios. The studio glass movement quickly spread north to Michigan\, and in 1982\, a decision was made that studio glass would be the focus of the University of Michigan-Dearborn permanent art collection\, which is housed at the Alfred Berkowitz Gallery. This exhibition is a portion of that collection\, spotlighting studio glass art by major artists working in the medium\, including Dominick Labino\, Marvin Lipofsky and Richard Ritter.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Vestiges: Oil\, Watercolor & Pastel Painting
DESCRIPTION:Growing up in Detroit\, Chicago based artist Carol Luc witnessed firsthand the slow decline of many architectural structures\, and the emptiness provoked her to reexamine how spaces narrate their story. \"I use architectural elements to examine the interplay between light and shadow\, form and structure\, and explore the relationship between material substance and nothingness.\" Luc has an MFA in painting from Northern Illinois University and an MA in painting from Wayne State University. She teaches undergraduate art courses at the American Academy of Art in Chicago\, and her work has been published extensively and is in several public collections.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibit: Plainly Spoken
DESCRIPTION:View a range of binding ideas that came to fruition: models that replicate books from a historical period\, cut-aways that visually reveal their hidden structure\, design bindings that interpret a concept from the text\, and artists’ bindings that play with structures and materials to create something new.\n\nIn this traveling exhibit the Midwest Chapter of the Guild of Book Workers showcases archivist and book conservator Julia Miller’s text Books Will Speak Plain. Incorporating 30 years of her notes and observations\, the 500-page handbook is aimed at conservators\, collectors\, librarians\, and book lovers\, for the identification and description of book structures and styles. Bookbinders from across the country acquired the text of the book in folded sheets and\, months later\, presented them to a jury as completed books with custom bindings.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Global Water-Resources Issues Versus Energy Choices 
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Tim Steele\, International Water-resources and Environmental Services Consultant.\n\nThe beneficial uses of the world’s water-resources are impacted by balancing available supplies with present and future demands. An important aspect of this “balance” involves interrelationships with competition among these uses along with water needs or impacts for various energy technologies. Some conceptual aspects of water-energy interactions will be described\, along with the need for presenting technical data and information to the general interested public (stakeholders) as well as resource-management decision-makers.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series: Thought Policing or Protection of Youth? Debates around Fictional Child Characters in Japanese Popular Culture
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nDespite a tradition of inflammatory remarks in the Anglophone press concerning the unregulated nature of sexual and violent content in Japanese animation\, comics and gaming\, these products are in fact under intense scrutiny in Japan. Until recently most public debate has been over the sexual and violent content of boys’ manga and anime but in recent years girls’ manga\, too\, have come under increasing scrutiny. This paper looks at two recent developments in Japan: the 2008 furore over the large number of “Boys Love” titles available for loan in a library district in Osaka\, and the 2010 debate in Tokyo over the “Non-Existent Youth” Bill. It is argued that until recently debate about manga content in Japan was largely about protecting children and young people from supposedly harmful adult themes. However\, due to growing international pressures\, the debate has now shifted to the supposedly harmful depictions of children and young people in manga and anime themselves. Given that BL is a genre that specialises in the sexualisation of its youthful characters\, this paper argues that it is likely to come under increasing attack from conservative lobbyists in Japan and overseas as this material is liable to be classified as a “child abuse publication.” What does this classification mean for fans of the genre in Japan and overseas and how might fans and scholars engage the authorities in debate over the meaning of these cultural products?\n\nSpeaker Bio\n\nMark McLelland is Professor of Gender and Sexuality Studies and an Australian Research Council Future Fellow at the University of Wollongong. Mark is author or editor of eight books focussing on issues to do with the history of sexuality\, popular culture and new media in Japan\, most recently\, Love\, Sex and Democracy in Japan during the American Occupation (2012). His Future Fellowship looks at debates around the influence Japanese popular culture is having on youth cultures globally.

SUMMARY:Other:Martha Nell Smith\, \"Time for a Thaw: Visibility\, Exclusion\, and Futures of Digital Humanities\"
DESCRIPTION:“The degree to which American society has embraced and absorbed computer technologies is astonishing.  The degree to which the changes provoked by computers leave prevailing inequalities is troubling.”\n–– Signs: Journal of Women in Culture and Society (1990)\n\nIssues of authority\, authoritative\, and authoritarian\, issues of access\, meditation\, and remediation\, and issues of visibility and exclusion will be central to my presentation and exchange with the audience. At a time when feminist\, critical race\, sexuality\, and class critical inquiries have had such a profound effect (and for decades) in the humanities\, the configurations of mainstream\, NEH-funded digital humanities are often similar to the politics of exclusion and occlusion we have worked so long to transform so that one emerging feminist scholar imagines that queer worlds must be built in the “digital margins”? What are the consequences of such frozen social orders when they are made to seem objective features of intellectual life?  Of course merely noting the pervasive problem is not enough\, and in this presentation I will pursue some answers for transforming the digital humanities so that innovations are sociological and not only technical. I will ground my critical observations and innovative suggestions by looking at several digital Dickinsons\, including the Harvard Emily Dickinson Online (EDA)\, for which I serve on the Advisory Board. Currently the EDA\, which takes as its foundational texts Harvard’s own variorum of Dickinson poems\, features no editorial innovation and little innovation as a digital archive. These examples will be used to recommend ways in which methods generated by feminist criticism and theory\, critical race studies\, sexuality studies and queer theory\, and class studies can advance and otherwise improve the work of digital humanities\, scholarly editing\, computer science\, information studies\, library science\, and humanities computing. The frozen social relations of old orders can and should be thawed in order to enable real sociological innovations\, new kinds of synergies for knowledge production.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Research Through Making
DESCRIPTION:Historically\, research and creative practice have been constructed as \"opposites.\" This is not an unusual struggle in architecture schools\, particularly in the context of a research university. This perceived tension between design and research is indicative of age-old anxieties within the architecture field to understand its nature as an \"applied art.\" Design can be a purely creative activity not unlike creative practices in music and art. In other cases\, design can be a purely problem solving activity\, not unlike research in engineering and industrial production.\n\nIn its fifth year\, University of Michigan Taubman College's Research Through Making (RTM) Program provides seed funding for faculty research\, worked on by faculty\, students and interdisciplinary experts. The exhibition presents tangible results of their collaborative work.\nThis year's projects:\n\n\"City of Nights: Detroit Illuminated\": Karl Daubmann\, Osman Kahn (UM Art and Design) and Catie Newell\n\"PneuSystems\": Kathy Velikov\, Geoffrey Thun\, and Santinder Singh Baveja (UM College of Engineering)\n\"Displace\": Wes McGee\, Catie Newell\, and Brandon Weiner (UM library)\n\"Carbon Fiber Architecture\": Glenn Wilcox and Anca Trandafirescu\n\"Knit Architectures\": Sean Ahlquist\, Wes McGee\, Anthony Waas (UM Engineering)\, and Georg Essl (UM Engineering)\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Conversations on Europe
DESCRIPTION:Douglas Holmes\, professor of anthropology\, Binghamton University\n\nThis paper is not about the financial crisis per se. Rather it is about the creation of a monetary regime–a regime impelled by a series of communicative experiments that predate the crisis and that have continued to be refined and modified in the teeth of unfolding turmoil. Indeed\, this compendium of experiments–in which we are all participants\, knowingly or not–has been instrumental in the management of some of the most vexing circumstances that arose in the wake of the failure of financial markets after the collapse of Lehman Brothers in September 2008.\n\nAt the heart of this regime is a far-reaching premise: the public broadly must be recruited to collaborate with central banks in achieving the ends of monetary policy\, namely\, “stable prices and confidence in the currency.” Persuasive analytical stories crafted by the personnel of central banks serve as the experimental instruments for shaping public sentiments and expectations and\, thus\, economic behavior prospectively. Research sustains and enlivens this evolving communicative relationship\, research that continually gleans the descriptive\, explanatory\, and interpretive labor of economic actors\, incorporating their intelligence for the purposes of formulating policy. The challenge for central bankers\, many of whom had a hand in designing this regime\, is to navigate and manage the shifting grounds upon which members of the public become protagonists in the monetary drama and their predicaments the imperatives of and for policy. The paper draws directly on ethnographic research at The European Central Bank\, the Bundesbank\, the Swedish Central Bank\, the Reserve Bank of New Zealand\, and the Bank of England.\n\nDouglas R. Holmes teaches anthropology at Binghamton University. His new book\, Economy of Words: Communicative Imperatives in Central Banks (Chicago 2014)\, examines an emerging monetary regime–a public currency–in which words and explanation play a decisive role. The book is based on research over the last decade at the European Central Bank\, the Deutsch Bundesbank\, the Reserve Bank of New Zealand\, the Swedish Riksbank\, and the Bank of England. He is currently working on a new project that examines what is at stake in the regulation and management of monetary affairs.\n\nSponsors: Center for European Studies\, Weiser Center for Emerging Democracies

SUMMARY:Other:Self Esteem and Relationships\; A Relationship Enhancement Series 
DESCRIPTION:Thursdays- Relationship Enhancement Series.  Dealing with difficult people in your life can be extremely stressful. Unfortunately\, few people ever learn the high-level skills needed to manage difficult relationships. This series will help you do just that.\n\nSelf-Esteem and Relationships. Few things in your life can have a greater positive impact than learning to feel good about you. How we feel about ourselves can impact our relationships with friends\, family\, and significant others.  In this workshop you will explore some of the earlier-life experiences that may have formed your current \"core beliefs\" about yourself.  We will talk about how these beliefs influence your life\, relationships\, and behaviors currently.  Lastly\, you will learn strategies for weakening some of the negative self-beliefs that hold you back in your life.\n\n\n\nEach Thursday from 4:15-5:30 p.m. you and other interested students will meet with a counselor and focus on one of the most frequent concerns of U-M students. These are the very issues that U-M students have told us are the most common issues they deal with every day. The counselor will share some helpful information\, talk about strategies and clinical resources\, and she or he will also make time for you to share a little bit about your concerns (if you wish to do so).  \n
