She is best known for bas-relief limestone sculptures\, but in 2011 she developed an interest in sculpting clay using a similar relief carving technique. Out of this came an artistic exploration and refinement of birds using ceramic vessels as the starting point. Whimsical additions such as tails and beaks give each bird an individual personality. Each bird is perched on an individually carved limestone base to enhance the unique qualities that each bird displays. Heyl’s affinity for nature extends from her art to her love of gardening and the occasional golf game.

Invisible Women: Portraits of Aging in Ukraine DESCRIPTION:Photography by Ashley Bigham\, 2015-16 Walter B. Sanders Fellow\, Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, U-M\; Watercolors by Grace Mahoney\, doctoral student in Slavic languages and literatures\, U-M.\n\nIn this exhibition\, artists Bigham and Mahoney investigate the visibility and social role of Ukraine’s older generation of women—embodied in a figure both iconic and ubiquitous\, the babusya. Seen in public transport\, in the market\, and on the street\, each babusya has a story to tell. Each has something to say\, something to gossip about\, and something to complain about. The current generation of Ukrainian grandmothers survived World War II\, the Holodomor\, and multiple repressions. They are also active in the present—although civic activism is often thought to be the province of the young\, many babusya joined in the actions of Ukraine’s Revolution of Dignity in Kyiv and throughout the country. Now they witness the war in Eastern Ukraine. Many of them have lost their homes and some of them have lost their children or grandchildren. The generation called\, “The Children of War” are now seniors of war. \n \nIn addition to their historic significance as a generation\, these women are present in the spheres of daily life throughout the country. Possibly overlooked in society\, these women are vibrant and active in the public spaces of contemporary Ukraine. Working in the open-air bazaars\, resting on public park benches\, or strolling through cemeteries\, these women stake their claim on the urban space—blending\, coalescing\, disappearing. This exhibit endeavors to tell the stories of these grannies. It’s an invitation to look closer\, to see the stories which are written on their faces – they are old and tired\, but not invisible. \n \nAshley Bigham is a lecturer and the 2015-2016 Walter B. Sanders Fellow at the University of Michigan Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning. Prior to her appointment at Taubman College\, Ashley was a Fulbright Fellow in Lviv\, Ukraine\, researching and teaching at the Center of Urban History of East Central Europe. Bigham holds a Master of Architecture from Yale University and a Bachelor of Architecture from the University of Tennessee. \n \nGrace Mahoney is a Ph.D. student in Slavic Languages and Literatures. In 2014-15 she lived in Ukraine on a U.S. Student Fulbright fellowship and interned with the Revolution of Dignity Museum in Kyiv in summer 2016. She has Bachelor's degrees in Visual Art and English Literature from Seattle University. Her work from this show was originally shown in the exhibition Portraits of the Unlost at America House in Kyiv in summer 2015. \n \nAn artists’ talk will be held from 4-5:30 pm on Friday\, September 23 in 1636 SSWB.\n\nExhibition sponsors: Center for Russian\, East European\, and Eurasian Studies\; A.

Due to their ability to internalize competition across OSs\, telecom carriers choose lower two-year contract prices for smartphones with large OSs. In this paper\, I first analyze a two period theoretical model to explain the intuition of multi-network carriers’ pricing strategy. Then I design a structural model of consumer demand and the carrier dynamic pricing game for smartphones\, and empirically study the impact of the OS network effect and carriers’ pricing strategy on the smartphone industry. I estimate the model using product level data from August 2011 to July 2013 in the US. I deal with the empirical challenges of dynamic prices for multi-product carriers\, high dimension continuous state variables\, and asymmetric oligopolistic firms in the estimation. The estimate of the OS network effect in consumer utility is positive and significant. Counterfactual analyses show that the multi-network carriers’ differentiated prices contributed to the smartphone penetration and the OS concentration.

Local artist and photographer Jane Kramer spent weeks exploring Michigan’s nature preserves and botanical gardens---including Matthaei---taking pictures of the shadows cast by native plant species. The shadow images were then transferred to handmade paper created from invasive plant species. For Kramer the shadows speak to the fragility of threatened plants and their struggle to survive in a changing environment that includes invasive species. The coupling of shadow and paper underscores the complex relationship between invasive and endangered plant species. Free admission. Open Wednesdays until 8 pm.

Her investigations combine architectural research\, material studies\, and art experiments\, a strategy she began as a student that now defines her career.\n\nThe most important element in her formal vocabulary is light\, not only as a “material” in its own right\, but also as a condition. Varying in strength\, form\, and duration\, light constructs architecture as a situational experience rather than a fixed space. Newell’s fascination with light is a fascination with darkness. Through urban interventions\, installations\, and photographs\, she investigates how darkness creates alternate environments\, with unseen geographies\, untold histories\, and secret identities.\n\nNewell\, assistant professor of architecture at U-M Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, is a recent recipient of the Rome Prize in architecture. Overnight includes photographs from her Rome project as well as new photography from the series Nightly\, featuring nighttime images of Detroit streetscapes and interiors\, alongside a site-specific sculptural installation commissioned by the Museum.

His style drew upon numerous international influences\, ranging from the Modernism of Edward Weston and Tina Modotti\, whom he met when they spent time in Mexico in the 1920s\, to the formally exquisite photojournalism of Henri Cartier-Bresson and Walker Evans\, whose work he knew in New York\, and the Surrealism of André Breton\, who visited Mexico around 1940.\n\nAlthough not strictly Surrealist\, many of Álvarez Bravo’s works manifest a similarly fantastical mood\; one of the artist’s most arresting qualities is his ability to imbue scenes of everyday life with an otherworldly\, metaphysical power. The twenty-three photographs in the exhibition\, drawn from UMMA’s collections\, show the artist’s ability to synthesize a personal—even nationalistic—style that merged the motifs of Mexican religious and indigenous works and plant forms (such as agave leaves) with a Modernist approach to image making. Throughout\, the presence of light as a wondrous metaphor and revealer of life animates even the emptiest and most silent of Álvarez Bravo’s scenes.\n\n**Special hours Sundays: 12–5pm\, CLOSED Mondays UID:30043-3321483@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/30043 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Exhibition,Museum,UMMA,Visual Arts LOCATION:Museum of Art - Photography Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161015T063029 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20160930T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20160930T130000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Marketing Track: Office Hours with Brett Friedman DESCRIPTION:Are you interested in exploring careers in media?

She became an expert in seeing the world the way an architect sees it. But as a progressive architectural thinker\, Henry’s inspiration has been to deconstruct that vision\, to “unsee” the very forms and representations that constitute an architect’s basic language.\n\nThrough speculative experiments and conceptual drawings Henry discovers in static architectural details an unsettling range of figurative expression\, including\, for example\, the way the profiles of roof eaves resemble human heads. Wallpaper\, with its ability to mask\, transform\, or animate a space\, is also a prominent element in her work. Her projects explore how these features animate our subjective experience—what she calls our “shifting fantasies”—of architectural space.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

In the standard ODE model of this process the number of possible molecule types in the resulting \"hypercycles\" is limited eventually by increasingly large swings in the populations of molecule types\, a barrier to complexity. In developing work\, I show that when the hypercycle model includes a malleable resource environment\, this barrier disappears. This fact highlights the importance of niche construction in evolutionary processes but also introduces new features and raises new questions.

Yet the fact that leaders have rarely carried out this advice suggests that existing analyses do not explain why there is a trap. This paper first offers a political explanation for the trap. It then explores the utility of this explanation with a comparative analysis of growth performance in the Malaysian and Thai rubber sectors\, focusing specifically on public testing-research (PTR) facilities and vocational-technical education (VTE).

A crucial reason for this success is the ability to integrate sensory cues from multiple sources. This talk will provide an overview of how visual and somatosensory channels augment auditory processes in speech perception\, with particular emphasis on recent work showing how appropriately timed somatosensory perturbations (facial skin deformation\, aero-tactile stimulation) can lead to systematic shifts in perceived perceptual boundaries.

Using her stone cutting and silversmithing skills\, she takes on six subjects that impact her isolated world: water\, winter\, plants\, critters\, rocks and the heavens. Her work\, often representational and sometimes narrative\, challenges the idea of jewelry as a status symbol. Lehndorff was born and raised in Ann Arbor\, and lived in Colorado until 2012. She is a granddaughter of renowned architect Albert Kahn (Hill Auditorium and the “Old Main” U-M Hospital) and daughter of Dr. Edgar A. Kahn\, who headed the neurosurgery department at the U-M Hospital in the 1960s.

Lottery participants included oil companies\, as well as individuals without the capital or expertise to drill for oil. In the absence of reallocation\, we expect less drilling on leases won by individuals. We find that leases won by firms and individuals have similar short- and long-term outcomes\, suggesting that secondary markets rapidly and efficiently correct for misallocation to individuals. However\, a subset of parcels with nearby oil production have 50% less drilling when they are won by firms. We develop a simple model to demonstrate how information asymmetry adversely affects firms to a greater degree. Because individuals have larger gains from trade\, they are more likely to overcome asymmetric information and trade with a nearby producing firm.

The purpose of pulling is to get air bubbles into the taffy\, which gives it a nicer texture. Until the late 19th century\, taffy was pulled by hand\, an arduous task. The early 20th century saw an avalanche of new devices to mechanize the process. These devices have fascinating connections to the topological dynamics of surfaces\, in particular with pseudo-Anosov maps. Special algebraic integers such as the Golden ratio and the lesser-known Silver ratio make an appearance\, as well as more exotic numbers. We examine different designs from a mathematical perspective\, and discuss their efficiency.

Although sometimes perceived of as ephemeral or outside the purview of conventional academic norms\, an effective scholarly digital persona often merges the personal and political. \n \n\nHow can social media channels be used to narrowcast your research to useful potential audiences in academia and facilitate geographically distributed collaboration around rapidly developing research topics? What are the norms about negotiating power differentials both with students and with senior faculty? How can you protect yourself against potential online abuse? What are the best strategies for translating the online grey literature that you may generate into peer-reviewed print publications?\n\nIt uses ideas about DIY publishing and academic branding from MICA professor Ellen Lupton and UC Irvine professor Julia Lupton and will help more advanced participants consider how to create an integrated website as the main portal of an online academic presence.

The analysis shows that a full understanding of the meaning of this text requires an appreciation of its use of vari-directional voicing (Bakhtin 1984\, Rampton 1995\, 2006) to create both a parodic and\, arguably\, meta-parodic (Morson 1989\, Dentith 2000\, Coupland 2007) stance on racial\, class and gender politics within the context of contemporary post-Apartheid South Africa. On a purely parodic level\, the text is shown to clearly provide a critique of traditional Afrikaner identity as well as two more modern manifestations of this identity: nouveau-riche femininity and what we refer to as ‘hip-hop masculinity’\, both responses to globalisation. The status of zef itself as a socio-ideological phenomenon is\, however\, shown to be more ambiguous. On the one hand\, by drawing on Bakhtin’s (1965) work on the carnivalesque\, we are able to provide some evidence for a meta-parodic stance that is inherently ambiguous\, self-reflexive and open to self-critique. On the other hand\, it remains clear that Die Antwoord’s project (as reflected\, for example\, in Baby’s on Fire) has\, quite legitimately\, been the subject of accusations of cultural appropriation (Haupt 2012\, Scott 2012) given their use of salient elements of so-called ‘Coloured’ culture as part of accruing large amounts of material capital.

Upon removing the Schur terms whose shape is not contained in a fixed rectangle\, the resulting symmetric function is Schur-nonnegative\, and its Schur coefficients describe: (1) Schubert structure constants for the product of a Schur function and Schubert polynomial\; (2) cohomology classes of positroid varieties in a Grasssmannian\; (3) three-point Gromov-Witten invariants for Grassmannians. We describe a representation of the symmetric group whose Frobenius characteristic is this symmetric function. As a special case\, this includes Postnikov's conjecture that toric Schur functions are Frobenius characteristics of toric Specht modules. Speaker(s): Brendan Pawlowski (U.

However a new generation of extensional geodynamic models has highlighted the role of magmas in weakening the lithosphere and accommodating strain during the initiation and evolution of continental rifts. Studies of rift magmas therefore provide a way to probe the processes associated with lithospheric thinning\, and allow us to assess the possible long term consequences of this thinning on the upper mantle – the future source of mid-ocean ridge magmas. The Main Ethiopian Rift lies at the northern end of the archetypical East African Rift system and provides a 30 million year record of magmatism associated with the Afar plume and continental rifting. Here we present the results of spatial and temporal geochemical studies of rift magmatism in order to constrain the role of magmas in facilitating extension. These data are placed within the existing geodynamic and geophysical framework to provide an integrated model of rift evolution.

She is best known for bas-relief limestone sculptures\, but in 2011 she developed an interest in sculpting clay using a similar relief carving technique. Out of this came an artistic exploration and refinement of birds using ceramic vessels as the starting point. Whimsical additions such as tails and beaks give each bird an individual personality. Each bird is perched on an individually carved limestone base to enhance the unique qualities that each bird displays. Heyl’s affinity for nature extends from her art to her love of gardening and the occasional golf game.

Local artist and photographer Jane Kramer spent weeks exploring Michigan’s nature preserves and botanical gardens---including Matthaei---taking pictures of the shadows cast by native plant species. The shadow images were then transferred to handmade paper created from invasive plant species. For Kramer the shadows speak to the fragility of threatened plants and their struggle to survive in a changing environment that includes invasive species. The coupling of shadow and paper underscores the complex relationship between invasive and endangered plant species. Free admission. Open Wednesdays until 8 pm.

Her investigations combine architectural research\, material studies\, and art experiments\, a strategy she began as a student that now defines her career.\n\nThe most important element in her formal vocabulary is light\, not only as a “material” in its own right\, but also as a condition. Varying in strength\, form\, and duration\, light constructs architecture as a situational experience rather than a fixed space. Newell’s fascination with light is a fascination with darkness. Through urban interventions\, installations\, and photographs\, she investigates how darkness creates alternate environments\, with unseen geographies\, untold histories\, and secret identities.\n\nNewell\, assistant professor of architecture at U-M Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, is a recent recipient of the Rome Prize in architecture. Overnight includes photographs from her Rome project as well as new photography from the series Nightly\, featuring nighttime images of Detroit streetscapes and interiors\, alongside a site-specific sculptural installation commissioned by the Museum.

His style drew upon numerous international influences\, ranging from the Modernism of Edward Weston and Tina Modotti\, whom he met when they spent time in Mexico in the 1920s\, to the formally exquisite photojournalism of Henri Cartier-Bresson and Walker Evans\, whose work he knew in New York\, and the Surrealism of André Breton\, who visited Mexico around 1940.\n\nAlthough not strictly Surrealist\, many of Álvarez Bravo’s works manifest a similarly fantastical mood\; one of the artist’s most arresting qualities is his ability to imbue scenes of everyday life with an otherworldly\, metaphysical power. The twenty-three photographs in the exhibition\, drawn from UMMA’s collections\, show the artist’s ability to synthesize a personal—even nationalistic—style that merged the motifs of Mexican religious and indigenous works and plant forms (such as agave leaves) with a Modernist approach to image making. Throughout\, the presence of light as a wondrous metaphor and revealer of life animates even the emptiest and most silent of Álvarez Bravo’s scenes.\n\n**Special hours Sundays: 12–5pm\, CLOSED Mondays UID:30043-3321484@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/30043 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Exhibition,Museum,UMMA,Visual Arts LOCATION:Museum of Art - Photography Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160706T154352 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20161001T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20161001T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mira Henry: The View Inside DESCRIPTION:Before joining the faculty of the Southern California Institute of Architecture in Los Angeles\, Mira Henry spent several years as a project architect\, immersed in the everyday\, banal details of how buildings get built: construction drawings\, material specs\, and building codes. She became an expert in seeing the world the way an architect sees it. But as a progressive architectural thinker\, Henry’s inspiration has been to deconstruct that vision\, to “unsee” the very forms and representations that constitute an architect’s basic language.\n\nThrough speculative experiments and conceptual drawings Henry discovers in static architectural details an unsettling range of figurative expression\, including\, for example\, the way the profiles of roof eaves resemble human heads. Wallpaper\, with its ability to mask\, transform\, or animate a space\, is also a prominent element in her work. Her projects explore how these features animate our subjective experience—what she calls our “shifting fantasies”—of architectural space.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

Her work\, often representational and sometimes narrative\, challenges the idea of jewelry as a status symbol. Lehndorff was born and raised in Ann Arbor\, and lived in Colorado until 2012. She is a granddaughter of renowned architect Albert Kahn (Hill Auditorium and the “Old Main” U-M Hospital) and daughter of Dr. Edgar A. Kahn\, who headed the neurosurgery department at the U-M Hospital in the 1960s.

Each bird is perched on an individually carved limestone base to enhance the unique qualities that each bird displays.

Kogan is considered the first prominent female industrial designer in the United States\, a founder of the profession\, and one of the 20th century's most significant designers. Her design aesthetic was heavily influenced by the geometric and streamlined shapes of Art Deco. Belle Kogan Associates\, her New York–based studio\, was the first American female-led design firm.

Local artist and photographer Jane Kramer spent weeks exploring Michigan’s nature preserves and botanical gardens---including Matthaei---taking pictures of the shadows cast by native plant species. The shadow images were then transferred to handmade paper created from invasive plant species. For Kramer the shadows speak to the fragility of threatened plants and their struggle to survive in a changing environment that includes invasive species. The coupling of shadow and paper underscores the complex relationship between invasive and endangered plant species. Free admission. Open Wednesdays until 8 pm.

Her investigations combine architectural research\, material studies\, and art experiments\, a strategy she began as a student that now defines her career.\n\nThe most important element in her formal vocabulary is light\, not only as a “material” in its own right\, but also as a condition. Varying in strength\, form\, and duration\, light constructs architecture as a situational experience rather than a fixed space. Newell’s fascination with light is a fascination with darkness. Through urban interventions\, installations\, and photographs\, she investigates how darkness creates alternate environments\, with unseen geographies\, untold histories\, and secret identities.\n\nNewell\, assistant professor of architecture at U-M Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, is a recent recipient of the Rome Prize in architecture. Overnight includes photographs from her Rome project as well as new photography from the series Nightly\, featuring nighttime images of Detroit streetscapes and interiors\, alongside a site-specific sculptural installation commissioned by the Museum.

His style drew upon numerous international influences\, ranging from the Modernism of Edward Weston and Tina Modotti\, whom he met when they spent time in Mexico in the 1920s\, to the formally exquisite photojournalism of Henri Cartier-Bresson and Walker Evans\, whose work he knew in New York\, and the Surrealism of André Breton\, who visited Mexico around 1940.\n\nAlthough not strictly Surrealist\, many of Álvarez Bravo’s works manifest a similarly fantastical mood\; one of the artist’s most arresting qualities is his ability to imbue scenes of everyday life with an otherworldly\, metaphysical power. The twenty-three photographs in the exhibition\, drawn from UMMA’s collections\, show the artist’s ability to synthesize a personal—even nationalistic—style that merged the motifs of Mexican religious and indigenous works and plant forms (such as agave leaves) with a Modernist approach to image making. Throughout\, the presence of light as a wondrous metaphor and revealer of life animates even the emptiest and most silent of Álvarez Bravo’s scenes.\n\n**Special hours Sundays: 12–5pm\, CLOSED Mondays UID:30043-3321485@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/30043 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Exhibition,Museum,UMMA,Visual Arts LOCATION:Museum of Art - Photography Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160706T154352 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20161002T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20161002T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mira Henry: The View Inside DESCRIPTION:Before joining the faculty of the Southern California Institute of Architecture in Los Angeles\, Mira Henry spent several years as a project architect\, immersed in the everyday\, banal details of how buildings get built: construction drawings\, material specs\, and building codes. She became an expert in seeing the world the way an architect sees it. But as a progressive architectural thinker\, Henry’s inspiration has been to deconstruct that vision\, to “unsee” the very forms and representations that constitute an architect’s basic language.\n\nThrough speculative experiments and conceptual drawings Henry discovers in static architectural details an unsettling range of figurative expression\, including\, for example\, the way the profiles of roof eaves resemble human heads. Wallpaper\, with its ability to mask\, transform\, or animate a space\, is also a prominent element in her work. Her projects explore how these features animate our subjective experience—what she calls our “shifting fantasies”—of architectural space.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

She is a granddaughter of renowned architect Albert Kahn (Hill Auditorium and the “Old Main” U-M Hospital) and daughter of Dr. Edgar A. Kahn\, who headed the neurosurgery department at the U-M Hospital in the 1960s.

She is best known for bas-relief limestone sculptures\, but in 2011 she developed an interest in sculpting clay using a similar relief carving technique. Out of this came an artistic exploration and refinement of birds using ceramic vessels as the starting point. Whimsical additions such as tails and beaks give each bird an individual personality. Each bird is perched on an individually carved limestone base to enhance the unique qualities that each bird displays. Heyl’s affinity for nature extends from her art to her love of gardening and the occasional golf game.

Local artist and photographer Jane Kramer spent weeks exploring Michigan’s nature preserves and botanical gardens---including Matthaei---taking pictures of the shadows cast by native plant species. The shadow images were then transferred to handmade paper created from invasive plant species. For Kramer the shadows speak to the fragility of threatened plants and their struggle to survive in a changing environment that includes invasive species. The coupling of shadow and paper underscores the complex relationship between invasive and endangered plant species. Free admission. Open Wednesdays until 8 pm.

Her investigations combine architectural research\, material studies\, and art experiments\, a strategy she began as a student that now defines her career.\n\nThe most important element in her formal vocabulary is light\, not only as a “material” in its own right\, but also as a condition. Varying in strength\, form\, and duration\, light constructs architecture as a situational experience rather than a fixed space. Newell’s fascination with light is a fascination with darkness. Through urban interventions\, installations\, and photographs\, she investigates how darkness creates alternate environments\, with unseen geographies\, untold histories\, and secret identities.\n\nNewell\, assistant professor of architecture at U-M Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, is a recent recipient of the Rome Prize in architecture. Overnight includes photographs from her Rome project as well as new photography from the series Nightly\, featuring nighttime images of Detroit streetscapes and interiors\, alongside a site-specific sculptural installation commissioned by the Museum.

His style drew upon numerous international influences\, ranging from the Modernism of Edward Weston and Tina Modotti\, whom he met when they spent time in Mexico in the 1920s\, to the formally exquisite photojournalism of Henri Cartier-Bresson and Walker Evans\, whose work he knew in New York\, and the Surrealism of André Breton\, who visited Mexico around 1940.\n\nAlthough not strictly Surrealist\, many of Álvarez Bravo’s works manifest a similarly fantastical mood\; one of the artist’s most arresting qualities is his ability to imbue scenes of everyday life with an otherworldly\, metaphysical power. The twenty-three photographs in the exhibition\, drawn from UMMA’s collections\, show the artist’s ability to synthesize a personal—even nationalistic—style that merged the motifs of Mexican religious and indigenous works and plant forms (such as agave leaves) with a Modernist approach to image making. Throughout\, the presence of light as a wondrous metaphor and revealer of life animates even the emptiest and most silent of Álvarez Bravo’s scenes.\n\n**Special hours Sundays: 12–5pm\, CLOSED Mondays UID:30043-3321486@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/30043 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Exhibition,Museum,UMMA,Visual Arts LOCATION:Museum of Art - Photography Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160922T105229 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20161003T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20161003T130000 SUMMARY:Other:The Silence Shoot DESCRIPTION:The Silence Shoot started out as a small project in 2011 out of an apartment in Mount Pleasant\, Michigan. The goal was to bring awareness to individuals who have suffered from bullying\, depression\, loneliness to the point of suicide attempts. It is important to ensure people they are not alone in this world. The Silence Shoot offers individuals the opportunity to show up as their authentic selves and capture these moments in a photoshoot.\n  \nThe concept behind these images is to show both individuality\, but also unity. Participants are encouraged to dress how they wish\, and pose how they wish\, to show that being yourself is nothing to be ashamed of\, but the images are edited all the same to show the solid stance of each person in what The Silence Shoot stands for. \n  \nRed duct tape is used to represent the silencing that bullying condones a person to physically\, mentally\, and emotionally. It also represents the community that is willing to stand as survivors of bullying or allies to those who have survived. We use red to also symbolize the bloodshed that bullying can cause in an act of violence either on another person\, or on one’s self. \n  \nThe black and white editing of everything besides the red tape is a concept that allows the image to show our oneness in the love we have for those being bullied\, and the survivors from said torment. \n\nFor more about The Silence Shoot\, visit www.thesilenceshoot.com.

DESCRIPTION:Monday\, October 3\, 2016\n11:30am to 1:00pm (pizza provided 11:20am for first 100 guests)\nGerald R. Ford School of Public Policy\nWeill Hall\, Betty Ford Classroom (1110)\n735 South State Street\nAnn Arbor\, MI 48109\n\nFree and open to the public.\n\nSponsored by:\nCenter for Local\, State\, and Urban Policy (CLOSUP)\n \nCo-Sponsors: \nThe University of Michigan’s Graham Sustainability Institute\, Energy Institute\, Program in the Environment (PitE)\, and Evironmental Law & Policy Program (ELPP)\n\n\nDescription:\nThis talk explores a surprising new strategy for climate change policy that has emerged in the last 10 years: “reclaiming the atmospheric commons.” The strategy combines the idea of making polluters pay for their greenhouse gas emissions with the additional idea of using those revenues to generate tangible\, broadly distributed public benefits. The strategy emerged in the creation of the first major U.S. climate change policy\, the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI)\, in 2008 and has since expanded to other climate policy venues in the United States and abroad. The talk also considers how a focus on new egalitarian principles for any use of the “atmospheric commons” by private companies may also facilitate the implementation of future state climate change and energy policies\, in particular response to U.S. EPA Clean Power Plan regulations.\n\n\nAbout the speaker:\nLeigh Raymond is Professor of Political Science and Director of the Center for the Environment at Purdue University. He received his Ph.D. in Environmental Science\, Policy\, and Management from U.C. Berkeley\, and a B.A. in Philosophy from Yale University. Dr. Raymond’s research focuses on influence of norms of justice and fairness on the design and implementation off market-based environmental policies\, including emissions trading policies to address climate change. He has also done research on political communication\, policy adoption\, and implementation in a wide range of other environmental policy areas\, including environmental risk management\, renewable fuels\, conservation tillage\, and biodiversity protection on private lands. Dr. Raymond has served as PI or Co-PI on more than $1.2 million in external research grants and is the author or co-author of three books on property rights and environmental policy and more than 30 refereed articles or book chapters\, including a forthcoming book on recent changes in U.S. climate change policy. Dr. Raymond teaches courses related to public policy and the environment\, and was a winner of the Kenneth T. Kofmehl Outstanding Undergraduate Teaching Award in the College of Liberal Arts. \n\nAs director of the Center for the Environment\, Dr. Raymond helps organize and promote cross cutting\, interdisciplinary research at Purdue focused on pressing environmental challenges. Prior to his appointment as director of the Center for the Environment\, he was an associate director and founding executive committee member of the Purdue Climate Change Research Center\, a similar program dedicated to interdisciplinary research and teaching on climate change. Raymond also co-organized and led a university cluster hire of seven new faculty members across seven departments at Purdue on the theme of Building Sustainable Communities\, from 2013-2015.\n\nhttp://www.purdue.edu/discoverypark/environment/\n\nhttps://www.cla.purdue.edu/polsci/directory/index.aspx?p=Leigh_Raymond\n\n\n\nFor more information visit www.closup.umich.edu or call (734) 647-4091.

Engaging the Discourse of Universality: A Historical Perspective on the Politics of Human Rights in North Africa DESCRIPTION:The foundational instruments of the modern human rights framework were negotiated in the 1950s\, as many colonies were achieving independence. North African states gave support to the human rights treaties\, but for more than a decade the discourse of human rights was controlled by the state. This lecture will trace the spread of human rights ideas to and through North Africa with particular attention to the decade of the 1980s\, when a local human rights movement flowered in the Maghreb. \n \nSusan Waltz is both a scholar and a practitioner in the field of international human rights. She began her career as an area specialist\, focusing on the North African countries of Tunisia\, Morocco\, and Algeria. Over the past twenty years she has conducted research on North African regional politics and the local human rights movement. More recently\, her research has focused on the historical origins of international human rights instruments and the political processes that produced them. She is co-author of the website Human Rights Advocacy and the History of International Human Rights Standards\, hosted by The Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy at the University of Michigan.

Qigong is an ancient Chinese art form of exploring and mastering subtle movement in our bodies. In traditional Chinese dance\, many of the concepts of movement and structure are adapted from Qigong. Zhao Jilong has been practicing Qigong and Kung Fu since he was five years old. His specialty is internal power\, which includes things similar to the “five-point-palm-exploding-heart-technique” from Kill Bill\, but also seemingly unrelated skills\, such as writing calligraphy and playing the zither. Master Zhao is also the host of several popular Chinese TV documentaries about traditional Chinese martial arts\, as well as the K-1 Global Kung Fu Ambassador. \n\nThe Zhao Jilong Residency is sponsored by Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies.

The ultimate goal is to give a description of the possible bifurcations that can occur\, i.e.\, given an arbitrary point c in parameter space\, what are the topological-equivalence classes that intersect every neighborhood of c? The goal of this talk is to describe the non-splitting bifurcations: the bifurcations that can occur when when the multiplicities of the equilibrium points are preserved under small perturbation. It will be proved that any non-splitting bifurcation can be realized as a composition of simpler bifurcations from a finite list.

Due to the size of the dataset\, Belle sampled a record breaking 1ab-1 delivered by the B-factory KEK-B\, as well as the precision instrumentation and PID capabilities\, this dataset represents a milestone for our studies of non-perturbative QCD effects in hadronization. \n\nOne focus of the Belle program is the precision measurement of Parton Fragmentation Functions\, which parametrize non-perturbative hadronization effects in QCD factorization formulas if final state hadrons are detected in semi-inclusive measurements\, e.g. in deep inelastic scattering or proton-proton collisions. \n\nIn particular\, Belle results sensitive to transverse polarization dependent fragmentation functions\, which can serve as ‘quark polarimeters’\, play a crucial role in our understanding of the transverse spin structure of the nucleon. Beyond determining Fragmentation Functions\, the study of hadronization allows us access to perturbative and non-perturbative QCD effects\, which is complimentary to using the nucleon as our QCD laboratory. \n\nThis talk will present the latest results from th ongoing program of hadronization studies at Belle. I will also give an outlook towards related physics opportunities at Belle II\, which will start data taking next year\, sampling about 40 times the luminosity that Belle did.

We present the inverse scattering transform method for the solution of the Cauchy initial value problem for sufficiently decaying initial data. As is well known\, the Toda lattice equations can be recast as an isospectral flow on Jacobi matrices and this gives rise to the existence of a Lax pair. Thus we move on to cover scattering theory for Jacobi matrices\, introduce the scattering transform and scattering data associated with a Jacobi matrix. Then we cover the time evolution of the scattering data under the dynamics induced by the Toda lattice equations and present the Riemann-Hilbert formulation of the inverse scattering transform. We review some results on long-time asymptotics of the solutions of the Cauchy initial problem for sufficiently decaying initial data. Time permitting\, we plan to consider Hamiltonian perturbations of the Toda lattice.

These meromorphic invariants arise from the uniqueness of Whittaker model. Among their local applications one finds irreducibility results and a formula for Plancherel measures. In the context of metaplectic groups\, uniqueness of Whittaker model does not hold anymore. Yet\, an analog for these coefficients exists. This analog goes back to Kazhdan-Patterson seminal work on the exceptional representations and is often referred to as a scattering matrix. In this talk we shall give new and simple interpretation to these matrices for coverings of p-adic SL(2) and relate them to Tate-type gamma factors. We shall also give some local applications. This talk should be accessible also for non-experts.

Given this\, Western scholars generally view Iranian cinema as poor territory for exploring love\, sex\, and desire\, with some even suggesting that pornography and Iranian cinema are two contrasting entities. Granted\, it is difficult to find a direct representation of love and sex in Iranian movies but this limitation does not mean that Iranian cinema is devoid of such topics. In fact\, as Hamid Naficy and Shahla Haeri both argue\, Iranian directors have proposed very sophisticated\, complex\, and ingenious methods for discussing eroticism\, love\, and passion in their movies. When faced with strict censorship and social and moral barriers\, what methods have Iranian directors developed in order to address love\, desire\, and passion? In what ways do these methods emancipate or emasculate Iranian artists in their quest to express love and eroticism? Ganjavie attempts to answer these questions\, arguing that it makes little sense to say that any authoritative system with a system of hegemony could prevent its citizens from expressing this impulse in their works since the sexual instinct is life’s drive and only at the moment of death can humans deny its existence. What is essential\, radical\, and utopian is to read the meaning of eroticism in Iranian cinema through the specific culture in which the drive has been developed and shaped.\n \nAmir Ganjavie\, a PhD student in communication and culture at York University\, is a Toronto-based writer\, cultural citric\, and festival director. Fascinated by the issue of alternative and utopian space in modern urban settings\, Ganjavie has published several articles and two books\, one on utopia (Le rôle de la pensée utopique dans l’aménagement des villes de demain) and the other on walkable neighborhoods (Pour une ville qui marche). Aside from academic life\, he writes for Filmint\, Mubi\, Senses of Cinema\, Offscreen\, and Brightlight and also works as the CEO of Cine-Iran festival\, an annual festival of contemporary Iranian cinema held in Toronto\, Canada. He has recently co-edited a special volume on alternative Iranian cinema for film International and edited Humanities of the Other\, an essay collection on the Dardanne Brothers. He is now working on a special issue on Iranian cinema and eroticism for Asian Cinema journal.

His remarkably fertile and consistent songwriting career dates back to the New Wave era and has passed through phases of country\, blues\, Americana\, and more without losing its basic flavor. To put it simply\, there's no finer wordsmith in American rock and roll\, and few other artists in any genre whose songs reward repeated hearings to such a degree. Maybe that's why John Hiatt is one of the most popular and durable concert draws around\, not only in the U.S. but all over northern Europe\, where he's inspired several tribute bands. This is a rare solo show from John\, and a still rarer show in a small venue—the perfect place to go deeply into the music of one of the greats of American music.

She is best known for bas-relief limestone sculptures\, but in 2011 she developed an interest in sculpting clay using a similar relief carving technique.

Each bird is perched on an individually carved limestone base to enhance the unique qualities that each bird displays. Heyl’s affinity for nature extends from her art to her love of gardening and the occasional golf game.

Kogan is considered the first prominent female industrial designer in the United States\, a founder of the profession\, and one of the 20th century's most significant designers. Her design aesthetic was heavily influenced by the geometric and streamlined shapes of Art Deco. Belle Kogan Associates\, her New York–based studio\, was the first American female-led design firm. Her contracts with Red Wing Potteries produced over 400 different art pottery shapes from the late 1930s to the early 1960s\, as well as several dinnerware and kitchenware lines. Belle Kogan and her firm designed products not only in ceramics but also clocks and small appliances\, glassware\, and pieces in silver\, plastics\, wrought iron and wood.

Local artist and photographer Jane Kramer spent weeks exploring Michigan’s nature preserves and botanical gardens---including Matthaei---taking pictures of the shadows cast by native plant species. The shadow images were then transferred to handmade paper created from invasive plant species. For Kramer the shadows speak to the fragility of threatened plants and their struggle to survive in a changing environment that includes invasive species. The coupling of shadow and paper underscores the complex relationship between invasive and endangered plant species. Free admission. Open Wednesdays until 8 pm.

Her investigations combine architectural research\, material studies\, and art experiments\, a strategy she began as a student that now defines her career.\n\nThe most important element in her formal vocabulary is light\, not only as a “material” in its own right\, but also as a condition. Varying in strength\, form\, and duration\, light constructs architecture as a situational experience rather than a fixed space. Newell’s fascination with light is a fascination with darkness. Through urban interventions\, installations\, and photographs\, she investigates how darkness creates alternate environments\, with unseen geographies\, untold histories\, and secret identities.\n\nNewell\, assistant professor of architecture at U-M Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, is a recent recipient of the Rome Prize in architecture. Overnight includes photographs from her Rome project as well as new photography from the series Nightly\, featuring nighttime images of Detroit streetscapes and interiors\, alongside a site-specific sculptural installation commissioned by the Museum.

His style drew upon numerous international influences\, ranging from the Modernism of Edward Weston and Tina Modotti\, whom he met when they spent time in Mexico in the 1920s\, to the formally exquisite photojournalism of Henri Cartier-Bresson and Walker Evans\, whose work he knew in New York\, and the Surrealism of André Breton\, who visited Mexico around 1940.\n\nAlthough not strictly Surrealist\, many of Álvarez Bravo’s works manifest a similarly fantastical mood\; one of the artist’s most arresting qualities is his ability to imbue scenes of everyday life with an otherworldly\, metaphysical power. The twenty-three photographs in the exhibition\, drawn from UMMA’s collections\, show the artist’s ability to synthesize a personal—even nationalistic—style that merged the motifs of Mexican religious and indigenous works and plant forms (such as agave leaves) with a Modernist approach to image making. Throughout\, the presence of light as a wondrous metaphor and revealer of life animates even the emptiest and most silent of Álvarez Bravo’s scenes.\n\n**Special hours Sundays: 12–5pm\, CLOSED Mondays UID:30043-3321487@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/30043 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Exhibition,Museum,UMMA,Visual Arts LOCATION:Museum of Art - Photography Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160706T154352 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20161004T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20161004T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mira Henry: The View Inside DESCRIPTION:Before joining the faculty of the Southern California Institute of Architecture in Los Angeles\, Mira Henry spent several years as a project architect\, immersed in the everyday\, banal details of how buildings get built: construction drawings\, material specs\, and building codes. She became an expert in seeing the world the way an architect sees it. But as a progressive architectural thinker\, Henry’s inspiration has been to deconstruct that vision\, to “unsee” the very forms and representations that constitute an architect’s basic language.\n\nThrough speculative experiments and conceptual drawings Henry discovers in static architectural details an unsettling range of figurative expression\, including\, for example\, the way the profiles of roof eaves resemble human heads. Wallpaper\, with its ability to mask\, transform\, or animate a space\, is also a prominent element in her work. Her projects explore how these features animate our subjective experience—what she calls our “shifting fantasies”—of architectural space.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

Using instrumental variable approaches and a panel dataset constructed from the ACS and Quarterly Workforce Indicators\, it finds that higher proportions of undocumented workers in metropolitan areas generate increased worker reallocation rates\, churning rates\, and employment rates. These findings are especially salient in industries where undocumented workers make up a larger share of the workforce. In order to place these empirical results in a tractable context\, this paper develops a search model of the local labor market with heterogeneous agents\, building upon the work of Chassamboulli and Peri (2015). Augmenting these models by allowing for endogenous job destruction and on-the-job search generates accurate predictions for the response of gross worker flows to increased proportions of undocumented workers. Further analysis of individuals in the Current Population Survey (CPS) demonstrates that job-to-job transitions drive the market-level results.\n\nThe Economic Consequences of Immigrant Disenfranchisement: Evidence from the United States Abstract:\nWhat are the effects of disenfranchisement on immigrants? This paper studies a little-known episode in United States history in which twenty-three states and territories disenfranchised non-citizen immigrants between 1864-1926. This disenfranchisement represented a significant shock to the political equilibrium of the time: mayoral and gubernatorial vote shares fell immediately by 13 and 7 percentage points\, respectively. There is no evidence that disenfranchisement affected the immediate labor market outcome for affected immigrants\, but there were intergenerational effects. Children of immigrants exposed to disenfranchisement at a young age had worse educational outcomes\, and earned less\, as adults\, than comparable children of natives. The results are robust to controlling for two sets of non-linear trends that account for\, respectively\, the changing composition of immigrant sending countries and changing conditions within state of residence (short run) or state of birth (intergenerational). I find support for two countervailing mechanisms for the intergenerational results: upon disenfranchisement\, states reduced public spending toward immigrants – particularly\, in public employment - but immigrants were also more likely to complete naturalization proceedings\, possibly signaling their value of assimilation and thus mitigating adverse effects.

This structure can be highly ordered as for example in cellular convection in a fluid or in can be subtle such as in turbulence. Highly ordered states are now known to fall in to a few universal classes determined by symmetry and the type of instabilities active in the system.

Nature has developed elegant methods to activate and utilize hydrogen\, especially for the purpose of carbon dioxide CO2 fixation. One such enzyme\, mono-[Fe] hydrogenase\, uses a unique array of non-proteinaceous ligands to activate H2 and perform hydride transfer to the CO2-carrier substrate\, H4MPT+. The iron center is ligated by a unique organometallic pyridone-acyl cofactor\, which along with two carbonyls and a Cys-S stabilizes a low-spin Fe(II) center. We have developed a novel anthracene-scaffold ligand the mimics the biological coordination sphere – in both the identity and crucial facial geometry of the CNS donor set. Studies of H2 activation and hydride transfer will be discussed.\n\nSecond\, a key component of solar energy storage is H2 generation from solar fuels devices. Our work utilizes a combination of silicon photoelectrodes\, molecular interfaces and metal oxide passivating layers to achieve stable photoelectrochemical performance. The devices are characterized primarily by XPS and photoelectrochemistry. We have shown that the molecular nature of the interface between the electrode and the passivating metal oxide is critical in controlling electron transfer and\, ultimately\, the efficiency of H2 generation. We have utilized both molecular catalysts (PNP-Ni\; Re-bpy) and Pt/Au nanoparticles for H2 generation and CO2 reduction. We are also investigating the use of embedded molecular wires in metal oxides (Al2O3\, TiO2\, ZnO) to enhance electron transport across these insulating oxide materials. Our newest findings will be highlighted.\nMike Rose (UT Austin) UID:31403-4251850@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/31403 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - 1640 CHEM CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161019T123030 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20161004T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20161004T170000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Preparing for the Actuarial Career Expo DESCRIPTION:This is a closed session for SAM.

This has been thoroughly studied for families of varieties whose canonical bundle is positive\, leading to what is called the hyperbolicity of the moduli stack of such varieties. I will explain how recent advances in Hodge theory and in the study of holomorphic forms\, facilitated especially by M. Saito's theory of Hodge modules\, allow us to answer questions regarding the base spaces of more general (and conjecturally arbitrary) families of varieties.

The Thieves' new album\, \"A Wolf in the Doorway\,\" finds the trio taking the very idea of \"roots\" and creating ways to make its sound progress and its encompassing spirit grow.

She is best known for bas-relief limestone sculptures\, but in 2011 she developed an interest in sculpting clay using a similar relief carving technique.

Each bird is perched on an individually carved limestone base to enhance the unique qualities that each bird displays. Heyl’s affinity for nature extends from her art to her love of gardening and the occasional golf game.

Participants will present research and work that use tactics of mediation to understand\, imagine\, interrupt\, and invent artifacts that exist at the large spatial and slow temporal scale of the Anthropocene.\nAmbiguous Territory will present design ideas and proposals from architects\, artists\, and landscape architects whose work challenges their disciplinary boundaries and long-held anthropocentric orientation and redefines the relationship between built and natural environments in an era of ecological anxiety.\nChairs:       \nKathy Velikov\, Associate Professor at the University of Michigan and principal of RVTR\nCathryn Dwyre\, Visiting Associate Professor at Pratt institute School of Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nChris Perry\, Associate Professor at Rensselaer Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nDavid Salomon\, Assistant Professor of Art History at Ithaca College.\nKeynotes:\nLiam Young\, urbanist\, designer and futurist\; founder of the futures think tank Tomorrows Thoughts Today (tomorrowsthoughtstoday.com)\; the ‘Unknown Fields Division’ (unknownfieldsdivision.com) at the Architectural Association in London\, and the ‘Fiction and Entertainment’ program at SciArc\nDavid Gissen\, author\, historian\, and Professor of Architecture and Visual and Critical Studies at the California College of the Arts and co-director of the Experimental History Project (http://davidgissen.org/)\nFor a full list of speakers and bios\, please visit the Ambiguous Territory symposium web page. \nAmbiguous Territory Symposium Schedule\nAll events in Taubman College Commons unless otherwise noted\nThursday October 5th\n5:00pm\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition Reception\n(Taubman College Gallery)\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: Liam Young\n(Art + Architecture Auditorium)\n \nFriday October 6th (all events occuring in The Commons)\n9:00am\nCoffee\n9:30am\nWelcome: Dean Jonathan Massey\nIntroductory Remarks: Associate Dean of Research and Creative Practice Geoffrey Thün\nSymposium Introduction: Kathy Velikov\n10:00am\nAtmospheric Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Kathy Velikov\nSpeaker 1: Christopher Hight\nSpeaker 2: Lydia Kallipoliti\nSpeaker 3: Sean Lally\nRespondent: Meredith Miller\nRoundtable Discussion\n12:00pm\nLunch Break (lunch not provided)\n1:00pm\nBiologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: David Salomon\nSpeaker 1: Jennifer Peeples\nSpeaker 2: Linsdey french\nSpeaker 3: Ricardo de Ostos\nRespondent: Ellie Abrons\nRoundtable Discussion\n3:00pm\nCoffee Break\n3:30pm\nGeologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Cathryn Dwyre and Chris Perry\nSpeaker 1: Alessandra Ponte\nSpeaker 2: Bradley Cantrell\nSpeaker 3: Rania Ghosn and El Hadi Jazairy\nRespondent: Mark Lindquist\nRoundtable Discussion\n5:30pm\nBreak\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: David Gissen\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition \nSeptember 27th – October 18th 2017\nUniversity of Michigan Taubman College Gallery\nDecember 2018 – January 2019\nPratt Manhattan Gallery\, New York UID:44929-10012276@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/44929 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Architecture,Exhibition,symposium LOCATION:Art and Architecture Building CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160915T082349 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20161005T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20161005T163000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Foreshadowing - Endangered and Threatened Plant Species DESCRIPTION:A unique exhibit of botanical portraits that illuminates native and invasive plant species in a different light. Local artist and photographer Jane Kramer spent weeks exploring Michigan’s nature preserves and botanical gardens---including Matthaei---taking pictures of the shadows cast by native plant species. The shadow images were then transferred to handmade paper created from invasive plant species. For Kramer the shadows speak to the fragility of threatened plants and their struggle to survive in a changing environment that includes invasive species. The coupling of shadow and paper underscores the complex relationship between invasive and endangered plant species. Free admission. Open Wednesdays until 8 pm.

Her investigations combine architectural research\, material studies\, and art experiments\, a strategy she began as a student that now defines her career.\n\nThe most important element in her formal vocabulary is light\, not only as a “material” in its own right\, but also as a condition. Varying in strength\, form\, and duration\, light constructs architecture as a situational experience rather than a fixed space. Newell’s fascination with light is a fascination with darkness. Through urban interventions\, installations\, and photographs\, she investigates how darkness creates alternate environments\, with unseen geographies\, untold histories\, and secret identities.\n\nNewell\, assistant professor of architecture at U-M Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, is a recent recipient of the Rome Prize in architecture. Overnight includes photographs from her Rome project as well as new photography from the series Nightly\, featuring nighttime images of Detroit streetscapes and interiors\, alongside a site-specific sculptural installation commissioned by the Museum.

His style drew upon numerous international influences\, ranging from the Modernism of Edward Weston and Tina Modotti\, whom he met when they spent time in Mexico in the 1920s\, to the formally exquisite photojournalism of Henri Cartier-Bresson and Walker Evans\, whose work he knew in New York\, and the Surrealism of André Breton\, who visited Mexico around 1940.\n\nAlthough not strictly Surrealist\, many of Álvarez Bravo’s works manifest a similarly fantastical mood\; one of the artist’s most arresting qualities is his ability to imbue scenes of everyday life with an otherworldly\, metaphysical power. The twenty-three photographs in the exhibition\, drawn from UMMA’s collections\, show the artist’s ability to synthesize a personal—even nationalistic—style that merged the motifs of Mexican religious and indigenous works and plant forms (such as agave leaves) with a Modernist approach to image making. Throughout\, the presence of light as a wondrous metaphor and revealer of life animates even the emptiest and most silent of Álvarez Bravo’s scenes.\n\n**Special hours Sundays: 12–5pm\, CLOSED Mondays UID:30043-3321488@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/30043 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Exhibition,Museum,UMMA,Visual Arts LOCATION:Museum of Art - Photography Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160706T154352 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20161005T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20161005T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mira Henry: The View Inside DESCRIPTION:Before joining the faculty of the Southern California Institute of Architecture in Los Angeles\, Mira Henry spent several years as a project architect\, immersed in the everyday\, banal details of how buildings get built: construction drawings\, material specs\, and building codes. She became an expert in seeing the world the way an architect sees it. But as a progressive architectural thinker\, Henry’s inspiration has been to deconstruct that vision\, to “unsee” the very forms and representations that constitute an architect’s basic language.\n\nThrough speculative experiments and conceptual drawings Henry discovers in static architectural details an unsettling range of figurative expression\, including\, for example\, the way the profiles of roof eaves resemble human heads. Wallpaper\, with its ability to mask\, transform\, or animate a space\, is also a prominent element in her work. Her projects explore how these features animate our subjective experience—what she calls our “shifting fantasies”—of architectural space.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

Speaking into this self-awareness can help other people address uncertainties in their lives. As a journalist\, Delece Smith-Barrow’s stories and reports hold strong personal interest for her. As Smith-Barrow researches and runs stories on these topics\, she’s realized that people\, both near and far\, share her perspective. By exposing herself\, she is able to voice questions they have\, but don't feel comfortable voicing. Involving herself in the quest for answers\, she is able to offer a story-telling perspective in national media that isn’t often seen. \n\nDelece Smith-Barrow is a higher education reporter at U.S. News & World Report\, where she covers admissions challenges and trends\, and the connection between higher education and employment.

This talk will be an introduction to the physics controlling different aspects of this problem. including the response of the global mean precipitation\, controlled by the energy balance of the troposphere\; the response of the horizontal vapor transport\, controlled by the increasing moisture content of the atmosphere and resulting in the \"wet-get wetter\" and \"dry-get drier\" paradigm in the absence of changes in atmospheric circulation\; and how the changes in atmospheric circulation\, such as the poleward shift of the midlatitude storm tracks can be understood as responses to the changes in water vapor transport. Key observations supporting these theories will be highlighted.

Following Hobson's approach\, I will reformulate this problem as a constrained Skorokhod embedding problem\, and show a natural supperreplication result. Furthermore\, I will show a monotonicity principle for the constrained SEP\, giving a geometric characterisation of the support of the optimisers (in the spirit of Beiglboeck\, Cox and Huesmann (2014)) which allows to link the additional information with geometric properties of the optimizers to the constrained embedding problem. Surprisingly\, for certain types of information the absence of arbitrage can be easily checked by considering only unconstrained solutions. This is a powerful setup in that one can find analytic and numerical solutions to certain pricing and hedging problems.\nThe talk is based on a joint work with Alex Cox and Martin Huesmann.

One way to encode some of these singularities is to look at the summands appearing in the decomposition theorem. In this talk\, we focus on the subvarieties of the target of the Hitchin map that support such summands. I will report on work on done in the case of SL(n) and in joint work in progress with J. Heinloth and L. Migliorini in the case of GL(n). My goal is to walk the audience through the main concepts\, results and techniques.

This inequality states that for every compact set A\,B in R^n\, one has Vol(A+B)^{1/n} >= Vol(A)^{1/n} + Vol(B)^{1/n}\, where Vol denotes Lebesgue measure\, and A+B = {a+b : a in A\, b in B} is the Minkowski sum of A and B. The class of log-concave measures contains fundamental probability measures\, such as the Gaussian measure\, the exponential measure\, and the uniform measure. In this talk\, we show that the Brunn-Minkowski inequality is valid for log-concave measures\, under symmetry assumptions. We then discuss some applications to new isoperimetric-type inequalities.

Most examples in the literature\, exemplified by the well studied pentapyridyl PY5 ligand introduced by Stack and Feringa\, are overall neutral donors\, rendering their transition metal complexes dicationic. We have incorporated two borate functions into this framework\, rendering the ligand dianionic. This more electron rich donor supports neutral M(II) complexes and makes higher oxidation state derivatives more accessible. This talk will explore the coordination chemistry of these ligands with first row transition metals like Ti\, Fe\, Co and Ni and discuss our efforts to generate and characterize higher oxidation state complexes that are key intermediates in catalytic processes involving\, for example\, C-H activation or oxygen reduction.\nWarren Piers (University of Calgary) UID:31404-4251851@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/31404 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - 1640 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160919T132550 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20161005T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20161005T183000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Annual Distinguished Lecture on Europe.

Uxbal Encarnación—father\, husband\, political insurgent—refuses to leave behind the revolutionary ideals and lush tomato farms of his sun-soaked homeland. His wife Soledad takes young Isabel and Ulises hostage and flees with them to America\, leaving behind Uxbal for the promise of a better life. But instead of settling with fellow Cuban immigrants in Miami’s familiar heat\, Soledad pushes further north into the stark\, wintry landscape of Hartford\, Connecticut. There\, in the long shadow of their estranged patriarch\, now just a distant memory\, the exiled mother and her children begin a process of growth and transformation.\n\nEach struggles and flourishes in their own way: Isabel\, spiritually hungry and desperate for higher purpose\, finds herself tethered to death and the dying in uncanny ways. Ulises is bookish and awkwardly tall\, like his father\, whose memory haunts and shapes the boy’s thoughts and desires. Presiding over them both is Soledad. Once consumed by her love for her husband\, she begins a tempestuous new relationship with a Dutch tobacco farmer. But just as the Encarnacións begin to cultivate their strange new way of life\, Cuba calls them back. Uxbal is alive\, and waiting.\n\nBreathtaking\, soulful\, and profound\, The Mortifications is an intoxicating family saga and a timely\, urgent expression of longing for one’s true homeland.\n\n“A revelatory tale of Cuba and America\, of faith and family\, of the spirit and the flesh\, The Mortifications is a debut remarkable for its wise and scrupulous insight into the human heart. Palacio feelingly reminds us that all immigrants are also exiles\, wounded with loss\, striving to make a home even as they yearn for the one they’ve left behind.” —Peter Ho Davies UID:34725-4978905@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/34725 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Books,Literature,Writing LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20161101T172213 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20161005T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20161005T203000 SUMMARY:Meeting:Peer Led Support Group Meetings DESCRIPTION:SAPAC's Peer-led Support Group is a weekly\, drop-in and confidential group for survivors to express concerns and find support among peers in a comfortable setting facilitated by student staff.

We are harnessing interactions between molecular catalysts and their environment to control organometallic catalysis. Incorporating a crown ether macrocycle into a robust pincer ligand enables the donor properties of such “pincer-crown ether” ligands to be tuned through cation-macrocycle interactions. Mechanistic studies of the dynamic interactions between catalysts\, cations\, and substrates provide an emerging picture of how cations can tune ligand substitution\, oxidative addition\, and migratory insertion in catalysis.\nAlexander Miller (UNC Chapel Hill) UID:31405-4251852@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/31405 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - 1640 Chemistry CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160801T125703 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20161006T054500 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20161006T200000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Active Learning Laboratory DESCRIPTION:This session offers an opportunity to practice active learning techniques by presenting a lesson to a small peer group.

The symposium asks: In a time when humans have been fundamentally displaced from their presumed place of privilege\, philosophically as well as experientially\, should the disciplines of architecture and landscape architecture consider displacing themselves as well\, in order to establish new affiliations and avail new ways to approach contemporary questions of design in relation to the environment?\nBy bringing designers and scholars from these fields together the symposium and exhibition will highlight projects and ideas that are engaged with these issues from a variety of perspectives\, ranging from scale and experience to questions of matter. Participants will present research and work that use tactics of mediation to understand\, imagine\, interrupt\, and invent artifacts that exist at the large spatial and slow temporal scale of the Anthropocene.\nAmbiguous Territory will present design ideas and proposals from architects\, artists\, and landscape architects whose work challenges their disciplinary boundaries and long-held anthropocentric orientation and redefines the relationship between built and natural environments in an era of ecological anxiety.\nChairs:       \nKathy Velikov\, Associate Professor at the University of Michigan and principal of RVTR\nCathryn Dwyre\, Visiting Associate Professor at Pratt institute School of Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nChris Perry\, Associate Professor at Rensselaer Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nDavid Salomon\, Assistant Professor of Art History at Ithaca College.\nKeynotes:\nLiam Young\, urbanist\, designer and futurist\; founder of the futures think tank Tomorrows Thoughts Today (tomorrowsthoughtstoday.com)\; the ‘Unknown Fields Division’ (unknownfieldsdivision.com) at the Architectural Association in London\, and the ‘Fiction and Entertainment’ program at SciArc\nDavid Gissen\, author\, historian\, and Professor of Architecture and Visual and Critical Studies at the California College of the Arts and co-director of the Experimental History Project (http://davidgissen.org/)\nFor a full list of speakers and bios\, please visit the Ambiguous Territory symposium web page. \nAmbiguous Territory Symposium Schedule\nAll events in Taubman College Commons unless otherwise noted\nThursday October 5th\n5:00pm\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition Reception\n(Taubman College Gallery)\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: Liam Young\n(Art + Architecture Auditorium)\n \nFriday October 6th (all events occuring in The Commons)\n9:00am\nCoffee\n9:30am\nWelcome: Dean Jonathan Massey\nIntroductory Remarks: Associate Dean of Research and Creative Practice Geoffrey Thün\nSymposium Introduction: Kathy Velikov\n10:00am\nAtmospheric Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Kathy Velikov\nSpeaker 1: Christopher Hight\nSpeaker 2: Lydia Kallipoliti\nSpeaker 3: Sean Lally\nRespondent: Meredith Miller\nRoundtable Discussion\n12:00pm\nLunch Break (lunch not provided)\n1:00pm\nBiologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: David Salomon\nSpeaker 1: Jennifer Peeples\nSpeaker 2: Linsdey french\nSpeaker 3: Ricardo de Ostos\nRespondent: Ellie Abrons\nRoundtable Discussion\n3:00pm\nCoffee Break\n3:30pm\nGeologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Cathryn Dwyre and Chris Perry\nSpeaker 1: Alessandra Ponte\nSpeaker 2: Bradley Cantrell\nSpeaker 3: Rania Ghosn and El Hadi Jazairy\nRespondent: Mark Lindquist\nRoundtable Discussion\n5:30pm\nBreak\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: David Gissen\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition \nSeptember 27th – October 18th 2017\nUniversity of Michigan Taubman College Gallery\nDecember 2018 – January 2019\nPratt Manhattan Gallery\, New York UID:44929-10012277@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/44929 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Architecture,Exhibition,symposium LOCATION:Art and Architecture Building CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160915T082349 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20161006T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20161006T163000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Foreshadowing - Endangered and Threatened Plant Species DESCRIPTION:A unique exhibit of botanical portraits that illuminates native and invasive plant species in a different light. Local artist and photographer Jane Kramer spent weeks exploring Michigan’s nature preserves and botanical gardens---including Matthaei---taking pictures of the shadows cast by native plant species. The shadow images were then transferred to handmade paper created from invasive plant species. For Kramer the shadows speak to the fragility of threatened plants and their struggle to survive in a changing environment that includes invasive species. The coupling of shadow and paper underscores the complex relationship between invasive and endangered plant species. Free admission. Open Wednesdays until 8 pm.

Her investigations combine architectural research\, material studies\, and art experiments\, a strategy she began as a student that now defines her career.\n\nThe most important element in her formal vocabulary is light\, not only as a “material” in its own right\, but also as a condition. Varying in strength\, form\, and duration\, light constructs architecture as a situational experience rather than a fixed space. Newell’s fascination with light is a fascination with darkness. Through urban interventions\, installations\, and photographs\, she investigates how darkness creates alternate environments\, with unseen geographies\, untold histories\, and secret identities.\n\nNewell\, assistant professor of architecture at U-M Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, is a recent recipient of the Rome Prize in architecture. Overnight includes photographs from her Rome project as well as new photography from the series Nightly\, featuring nighttime images of Detroit streetscapes and interiors\, alongside a site-specific sculptural installation commissioned by the Museum.

His style drew upon numerous international influences\, ranging from the Modernism of Edward Weston and Tina Modotti\, whom he met when they spent time in Mexico in the 1920s\, to the formally exquisite photojournalism of Henri Cartier-Bresson and Walker Evans\, whose work he knew in New York\, and the Surrealism of André Breton\, who visited Mexico around 1940.\n\nAlthough not strictly Surrealist\, many of Álvarez Bravo’s works manifest a similarly fantastical mood\; one of the artist’s most arresting qualities is his ability to imbue scenes of everyday life with an otherworldly\, metaphysical power. The twenty-three photographs in the exhibition\, drawn from UMMA’s collections\, show the artist’s ability to synthesize a personal—even nationalistic—style that merged the motifs of Mexican religious and indigenous works and plant forms (such as agave leaves) with a Modernist approach to image making. Throughout\, the presence of light as a wondrous metaphor and revealer of life animates even the emptiest and most silent of Álvarez Bravo’s scenes.\n\n**Special hours Sundays: 12–5pm\, CLOSED Mondays UID:30043-3321489@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/30043 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Exhibition,Museum,UMMA,Visual Arts LOCATION:Museum of Art - Photography Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160706T154352 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20161006T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20161006T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mira Henry: The View Inside DESCRIPTION:Before joining the faculty of the Southern California Institute of Architecture in Los Angeles\, Mira Henry spent several years as a project architect\, immersed in the everyday\, banal details of how buildings get built: construction drawings\, material specs\, and building codes. She became an expert in seeing the world the way an architect sees it. But as a progressive architectural thinker\, Henry’s inspiration has been to deconstruct that vision\, to “unsee” the very forms and representations that constitute an architect’s basic language.\n\nThrough speculative experiments and conceptual drawings Henry discovers in static architectural details an unsettling range of figurative expression\, including\, for example\, the way the profiles of roof eaves resemble human heads. Wallpaper\, with its ability to mask\, transform\, or animate a space\, is also a prominent element in her work. Her projects explore how these features animate our subjective experience—what she calls our “shifting fantasies”—of architectural space.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

My question is whether it is possible for cinema to help locate forms of refuge today that are distinct from security. Drawing on several examples of moving image media in Japan\, I will argue that one of the key components of locating refuge involves a shift of emphasis from a politics of visibility to one of vulnerability. Visibility is central to the politics of security in all its modalities. While amplifying fear\, security works to obscure any kind of care (indeed\, etymologically\, the term security—securitas—refers to the absence of care). Vulnerability\, on the other hand\, opens possibilities for care foreclosed by the fear and aggression of security. Such a distinction raises multiple questions. How does an image that emphasizes visibility differ from one that emphasizes vulnerability? How does the relationship between visibility and vulnerability intersect with that between image and narrative (or other non-visual elements)\, or specific modes\, such as documentary\, or animation?\n\nPhil Kaffen’s research and teaching interests revolve around the role of the image in modern societies\, from intersections of art and technology in optical media to theoretical reflections on imagination and representation to the politics of surveillance and security. His primary research field is Japan. He has published essays on bodies and urban space in documentary and fiction film\, and on violence in cinema during the 1970s. He is currently working on a book project tentatively titled: Immediacy and Refuge: Rethinking the Place of Cinema in Japan.

But in fact\, the archaeological record is one of tremendous variability in warfare over time and space. Here I compare three different moments in the Andean sequence to highlight the most marked contrasts in the practice and the symbolism of warfare. Societies of the Early Intermediate Period\, most famously represented by the Moche\, developed elaborate traditions of warlike imagery and performance as the elite class engaged in factional rivalries and attempted to naturalize relationships of social dominance. Societies of the Late Intermediate Period in the highlands waged fierce land wars that threatened the population at large\, without referencing warfare in symbolism or spectacle. Chimu and Inca conquests inaugurated a new role for war as the primary technique of coercive control of populations and their territories. In this talk\, I inquire how changing conditions of political interaction over time may have shaped the aims of both warfare and war-related spectacle in the Andes.

Using her stone cutting and silversmithing skills\, she takes on six subjects that impact her isolated world: water\, winter\, plants\, critters\, rocks and the heavens. Her work\, often representational and sometimes narrative\, challenges the idea of jewelry as a status symbol. Lehndorff was born and raised in Ann Arbor\, and lived in Colorado until 2012. She is a granddaughter of renowned architect Albert Kahn (Hill Auditorium and the “Old Main” U-M Hospital) and daughter of Dr. Edgar A. Kahn\, who headed the neurosurgery department at the U-M Hospital in the 1960s.

The real and imagined intimacies—whether expressed through friendship\, love\, or eroticism—threatened U.S. gender and sexuality norms. To codify U.S. heteronormative behavior\, the colonial government prohibited anything loosely defined as perverse\, which along with popular representations of Filipinos\, regulated colonial subjects and depicted them as sexually available\, diseased\, and degenerate. Mendoza analyzes laws\, military records\, the writing of Philippine students in the United States\, and popular representations of Philippine colonial subjects to show how their lives\, bodies\, and desires became the very battleground for the consolidation of repressive legal\, economic\, and political institutions and practices of the U.S. colonial state. By highlighting the importance of racial and gendered violence in maintaining control at home and abroad\, Mendoza demonstrates that studies of U.S. sexuality must take into account the reach and impact of U.S. imperialism.\n\nCosponsored by the Department of Women's Studies.

Ex-ante forward\, guaranteed contracts can reduce uncertainty for migrants. I combine aspects of the two and ask\, how does origin-market uncertainty affect out-migration under forward contracts? I model migration under forward contracts and then turn to new\, unique microdata on roughly 250\,000 Indian indentured servants sent around the world under forward contracts. The migration decision is consistent with migrating to escape price volatility (my main measure of uncertainty). A one-standard deviation increase in price volatility increases extensive margin migration by 2% and the intensive margin by 5%. I find compositional differences by social network (caste)\, with networks responding differently to volatility. Lower-caste people respond more to prices\, wages\, and volatility\, and higher-caste people are more able to smooth against volatility. This is suggestive of caste-specific insurance networks. Finally\, volatility exerts a persistent negative effect on the return migration choice. A one-standard deviation in volatility at the time of departure lowers return migration (within roughly 10 years) by 5%.

I outline a research program that applies a hierarchical approach to address this challenge in tropical coastal marine ecosystems. Specifically\, I show how the study of consumer-mediated nutrient dynamics integrates behavioral\, community\, and ecosystem ecology in a framework that can be applied to identify underlying mechanisms of ecosystem function at multiple spatial scales. First\, I show how artificial reefs enhance local ecosystem processes and initiate biogeochemical hotspots at the patch scale. I then explain a series of studies that identify drivers by which fish communities regulate nutrient supply and storage at the ecosystem scale. I demonstrate the relevance of these processes for the structure and function of habitats (e.g.\, coral reefs) that in turn are critical for supporting fish communities. Finally\, I discuss on-going and future research efforts to understand the role of consumer behavior in spatially coupling energy and nutrient dynamics at the landscape scale. Importantly\, my research program is structured such that it bridges science with conservation efforts. Throughout\, I demonstrate how a theory-driven approach to ecology can be directly applied to help solve real-world conservation problems in highly impaired coastal tropical ecosystems.\n\nWatch YouTube video: https://youtu.be/2-aezXOK8Aw UID:34080-4846716@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/34080 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biology,Ecology,Environment,Research,Science LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - 1210 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160830T130432 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20161006T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20161006T180000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EIHS Lecture: \"A Sino-Jewish Encounter\, A Humanitarian Fantasy\" DESCRIPTION:In the late 1930s and early 1940s\, tens of thousands of European Jews fleeing Nazi genocide found a temporary safe haven in Shanghai. They were able to do so because Shanghai was an open city under divided governance and because China was at war with Japan and could not exercise sovereign control over its borders. In this talk\, Professor Lee ponders the moral lessons from this fortuitous episode of humanitarianism through the lens of moral philosophy and moral psychology\, using the Canadian-Chinese writer Bella’s novel A Jewish Piano as her textual anchor.\n\nHaiyan Lee is an associate professor of Chinese and comparative literature at Stanford University.

In the mid 80s\, Weiss proved that the equivalence relation generated by a finite family of commuting Borel automorphisms is hyperfinite\, and in the mid 90s\, Dougherty\, Jackson\, and Kechris proved that the equivalence relation generated by a single Borel endomorphism is hypersmooth. We will generalize both results to show that the equivalence relation generated by a finite family of commuting Borel endomorphisms is hypersmooth. As is typical in this area\, the proof will involve the construction of a suitable family of Borel marker sets. This is the third\, and last\, of this series of talks.

What can we then say about M? Examples are provided by tori\, in which case the covering is a linear endomorphism. Under the assumption that all iterates of the covering of M are regular\, we show that any self-cover is induced by a linear endomorphism of a torus on a quotient of the fundamental group. Under further hypotheses we show that M admits the structure of a principal torus bundle. We use this to give an application to holomorphic self-covers of Kaehler manifolds.

Some of them insisted on strict observance\; others argued that only parts of the Law needed to be observed\; and yet others claimed that Law had never been part of God’s plan. These early Christian groups did\, however\, agree on one point: Jesus’ own words\nwere to form the basis for his followers’ ethical and communal lives. This lecture will examine how the Christian faith moved from embracing the “old” covenant focused on Torah to adopting a “new” covenant centered on the life\, death\, and teachings of Jesus.\n\nProfessor Bart Ehrman is the James A.

The NOS Jeugdjournaal started in 1981 as the second news program for children\, after BBC Newsround. After 35 years\, more than 15\,000 news programs\, 13 weekly national newscasts with its own global reporters\, a large online presence\, a yearly election debate with Dutch party leaders\, and live children's press conferences\, the national Dutch children's news takes children seriously as a news audience. It goes beyond an educational tool as an integral part of Dutch family life\, with many children watching the program with their families after dinner. Ronald Bartlema will discuss the NOS Jeugdjournaal as a cultural phenomenon\, its role as a model for children's news around the world\, and its expertise in bringing difficult world news to children without taboos and in psychologically safe ways.
