SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Avian Vessels: Mixed Media Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Cincinnati based sculptor Karen Heyl has been professionally sculpting stone since 1984. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Divided Images: Fiber
DESCRIPTION:Jill Ault is an Ann Arbor studio artist working in fiber\, primarily quilts\, with a BFA degree in painting from Eastern Michigan University. Her quilts are constructed of multiple copies of an image: a photograph\, a graphic design or a painting.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Works by Belle Kogan: First Female Industrial Designer
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition presents industrially-produced art pottery pieces designed by Belle Kogan (1902–2000)\, for Red Wing Potteries in Red Wing\, Minnesota. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Symposium: Ambiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\nAmbiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural is a symposium and concurrent exhibition that situates contemporary discourses and practices of architecture and landscape within the context of the Postnatural\; the era of climate change\, the Anthropocene\, and altered ecologies. 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

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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Catie Newell: Overnight
DESCRIPTION:Detroit-based architect Catie Newell’s work is focused on the tactile\, sensory qualities of the materials we use to build things: their texture\, density\, or malleability. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manuel Álvarez Bravo: Mexico’s Poet of Light
DESCRIPTION:Manuel Álvarez Bravo spent nearly his entire career photographing his native Mexico. 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

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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Michigan Wonderland Gems & Jewels
DESCRIPTION:Betsy Lehndorff’s jewelry is influenced by her life in Hubbard Lake in northeastern Michigan. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Avian Vessels: Mixed Media Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Cincinnati based sculptor Karen Heyl has been professionally sculpting stone since 1984. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Divided Images: Fiber
DESCRIPTION:Jill Ault is an Ann Arbor studio artist working in fiber\, primarily quilts\, with a BFA degree in painting from Eastern Michigan University. Her quilts are constructed of multiple copies of an image: a photograph\, a graphic design or a painting. She digitally prints variations of the image on fabric and divides the copies into many small squares (no two alike). When she carefully reassembles and sews together the squares\, parts of the image seem to move across and down the surface of the quilt. Ault exhibits nationally at fiber and quilt shows\, such as Quilt National in Athens\, Ohio and Fiberart International in Pittsburgh\, Pennsylvania.

DESCRIPTION:This exhibit focuses on the destruction of Florence during the flood on November 4\, 1966. Among the collections severely impacted by the muddy waters were those in the Biblioteca Nazionale Centrale di Firenze. Book conservators from the United States and Western Europe were called in to help with the recovery efforts. The exhibit features a British team\, headed by Peter Waters\, which created a washing-drying-mending-rebinding system to deal with tens of thousands of books damaged by the disaster.\n\nThe two most important outcomes of the tragedy are the professional training of library conservators and the establishment of disaster preparedness and response programs.\n\nLearn more and register for the symposium\, The Flood in Florence\, 1966: A Fifty-Year Retrospective\, happening November 3-4\, 2016. https://www.lib.umich.edu/flood-florence-1966-fifty-year-retrospective

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Beyond the Standard Model Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The Higgs boson discovery represents an important step\, yet it remains unclear what new physics may remain at the TeV scale. The LHC’s 2015 run demonstrated the ability to run at 13 TeV\, and a substantial amount of data are expected at this energy Summer 2016. These data will represent a real window of opportunity for discovery that will rapidly push into a new regime and probe many models at the TeV scale. \n\nShould a discovery be made\, this workshop will be the ideal opportunity to bring together experts to try and place any excesses in the context of underlying theories. In the absence of immediate signals\, it will be a chance to regroup\, and consider what the foci should be for BSM physics in the upcoming years. \n\nThe workshop will be around 2.5 days. Participants are welcome to stay for the remainder of the week (with fewer talks\, but opportunity for informal discussions and collaboration).\n\nFor registration information\, please contact Karen O'Donovan\, killwick@umich.edu

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Symposium: Ambiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\nAmbiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural is a symposium and concurrent exhibition that situates contemporary discourses and practices of architecture and landscape within the context of the Postnatural\; the era of climate change\, the Anthropocene\, and altered ecologies. 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

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.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Forms of Verse
DESCRIPTION:Poets in English use rhythm and meter to express thought and feeling. After a brief introduction\, participants will read and hear examples of different verse forms: sonnets\, couplets\, alliterative verse\, blank verse\, free verse and poems in unusual meters and stanzas. Examples will be drawn from very early English poetry up to the 20th century. We'll consider how poetry works as narrative\, as a vehicle for experience and as self-expression. We'll use a short anthology that the instructor will make available to the class. James McIntosh is Professor Emeritus of English and American Culture. This class for adults over 50 meets Mondays through December 5th.  There will be no class on Oct 17.  The December 5th class will be held at Turner Senior Resource Center\, 2401 Plymouth Road. \nhttps://olli-umich.org/olli/index.php/member/ctlg/viewEventDetails/892

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Catie Newell: Overnight
DESCRIPTION:Detroit-based architect Catie Newell’s work is focused on the tactile\, sensory qualities of the materials we use to build things: their texture\, density\, or malleability. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manuel Álvarez Bravo: Mexico’s Poet of Light
DESCRIPTION:Manuel Álvarez Bravo spent nearly his entire career photographing his native Mexico. 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

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CMENAS Colloquium Series. Muslim Pathways: Ethics of Cohabitation\, Assembly\, and Informality
DESCRIPTION:Drawing upon field research in different Muslim cities\, Professor Haines analyzes the diverse ways modernity reshapes community\, belonging\, and cohabitation through the mapping and policing of a diversity of borders: between modernity and tradition\, centers and peripheries\, wealthy and poor\, as well as between national territories. He questions how crossing borders and disrupting normative claims to purifying the ‘in-group’ become contested aspirations and practices to forge new kinds of community\, ones often rooted in Islamic ideals and ethics. \n    \nChad Haines is a cultural anthropologist and assistant professor of Religious Studies and Global Studies at Arizona State University. He earned his PhD in Cultural Anthropology from the University of Wisconsin-Madison (2000). Haines’ publications include Nation\, Territory\, and Globalization in Pakistan: Traversing the Margins (Routledge 2012) that analyzes the mapping of marginal spaces within the nation-making processes of Pakistan\, particularly focusing on the remote\, mountainous northern region of Gilgit-Baltistan. He is co-editor of Women and Peace in the Islamic World: Gender\, Agency\, and Influence (I.B. Taurus 2015) and the forthcoming People’s Peace: Prospects for a Human Future. He is currently completing a manuscript titled: Muslim Pathways: Negotiating Modernity\, Religion\, and Urbanity. \n\nBefore moving to ASU\, Haines taught at American University in Cairo (2004-2008) and was a Senior Fulbright Research Fellow in Pakistan (2009). He held a number of visiting and research positions at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill’s University Center for International Studies\, at Duke University’s Center for South Asian Studies\, the Center for Civilizational Dialogue in the University of Malaysia\, and the Center for the Study of Religion and Conflict at ASU.\n\n** For CMENAS students only **\n1:30-2 pm — CMENAS students workshop/discussion with the lecturer/professor.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Mathematical Biology
DESCRIPTION:Phytoplankton\, and the zooplankton that graze upon them\, play a crucial role in the dynamics observed at higher levels of the aquatic ecosystem. There is a vast literature on differential equation models of plankton dynamics\, and a recent trend in ecological models has considered plasticity in parameters and adaptation. In this talk\, we interpret plasticity as prey switching\, that is\, predator’s adaptive change of diet in response to the abundance of prey. We first analyse a model constructed for one predator feeding on two different types of prey and inspired by plankton observations. This model has a discontinuity between two vector fields. We then discuss two different smooth formulations of the model and compare model predictions with data on freshwater plankton collected from Lake Constance on the German-Swiss-Austrian border. Finally\, we discuss a 1 fast-3 slow system for one predator feeding adaptively on two different prey types and inspired by the first model.\n Speaker(s): Sofia Piltz (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Humanists in the Ford School of Public Policy Writing for the Public
DESCRIPTION:A conversation with U-M Ford School of Public Policy professors Shobita Parthasarathy\, Paul Courant\, Joy Rohde\, moderated by Institute for the Humanities director Sidonie Smith\n\nAbout the participants:\n\nShobita Parthasarathy is Associate Professor of Public Policy and Women's Studies at the University of Michigan. She studies policy and politics related to science and technology\, as well as the politics of evidence and expertise in policymaking\, in the United States\, Europe\, and India. She is the author of numerous articles and a book\, Building Genetic Medicine: Breast Cancer\, Technology\, and the Comparative Politics of Health Care (MIT Press\, 2007). Findings from this book\, which compared the development of genetic testing for breast and ovarian cancer in the United States and Britain\, helped to inform the 2013 US Supreme Court case over gene patents. Her second book\, Patently Political: Life\, Markets\, and Morality in the United States and Europe\, is forthcoming with University of Chicago Press. Comparing recent controversies over life form patents in the United States and Europe\, it demonstrates how political culture\, ideology\, and history shape patent systems in fundamental ways. She is starting a new project that aims to develop a better understanding of grassroots innovation in India\, which often takes place outside the global marketplace and is low-tech and small-scale\, in the hope that it might usefully inform both our theories of innovation and our innovation and development policies. She is a Faculty Affiliate in UM's Science\, Technology\, and Society and Feminist Science Studies programs. She sits on the Council of the Society for the Social Studies of Science\, and the Governing Council of the Science and Democracy Network.\n\nPaul Courant has served as provost and executive vice president for Academic Affairs\, University Librarian and Dean of Libraries\, as associate provost for Academic and Budgetary Affairs\, as chair of the Department of Economics\, and as director of the Institute of Public Policy Studies (predecessor of the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy). He served as a senior staff economist at the Council of Economic Advisers from 1979 to 1980.   Courant has authored half a dozen books\, and over seventy papers covering a broad range of topics in economics and public policy. Most recently\, his academic work has considered the economics of universities\, the economics of libraries and archives\, and the effects of new information technologies and other disruptions on scholarship\, scholarly publication\, and academic libraries. He is active in a number of national initiatives\, including the Digital Public Library of America and the Authors Alliance.\n\nJoy Rohde\, assistant professor of public policy\, is a historian who works at the intersection of U.S. intellectual and policy history\, the history of U.S. foreign relations\, and science and technology studies. She is currently working on a book project that explores how ideas about cybernetics and advances in information technology\, like research databases and statistical software\, impacted the social sciences and policy analysis in the United States since World War II. Joy's first book\, Armed with Expertise: The Militarization of American Social Research during the Cold War (Cornell University Press\, 2013)\, investigates the Cold War origins and contemporary consequences of the Pentagon&rsquo\;s social research contracting system. At Michigan\, Joy is a member of the core faculty in the Science\, Technology\, and Society Program. She also holds a courtesy appointment in the Department of History. Prior to joining the Ford School\, Joy was an assistant professor of history at Trinity University.\n\nSidonie Smith is the Mary Fair Croushore Professor of the Humanities\, and Director of the Institute for the Humanities. Her interests include autobiography studies\, feminist theories\, women’s literature\, human rights and narrative\, and the future of doctoral studies in the humanities.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:A Progressive's View of the Conservative Movement
DESCRIPTION:Political commentator E.J. Dionne views contemporary American conservatism as a betrayal of its voters and a root cause of the turbulence in the Republican party today. He argues that conservatives promise to abolish big government and restore traditional values\, yet they repeatedly disappoint. This has created an untenable situation in which groups with different ideals - libertarians\, moralists and nativists - are vying for control. We'll read and discuss his book\, Why the Right Went Wrong: Conservatism - From Goldwater to the Tea Party and Beyond. Read to pg. 27 for the first class. Instructor: Gerald Lapidus.

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.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral & Experimental Economics (SBEE)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nLow-value health services constitute care that in most cases does not improve patient outcomes and can lead to unnecessary harms.  Choosing Wisely® (www.choosingwisely.org) is a large-scale\, evidence-based campaign to raise awareness of low-value health services that has gained international momentum since being launched in the United States in 2012.  However\, simple awareness of evidence is often insufficient to change many clinical decisions without strategies that target factors underlying clinicians’ decisions to order these services. \n\nOne factor that can drive clinicians to order low-value health services is the context in which they typically make such decisions.  Even when clinicians know certain services do not improve population-level outcomes\, their decisions to order these services for individual patients are often made quickly in the midst of seeing patients and multi-tasking.  These constraints may lead clinicians to rely on heuristics rather than careful deliberation.  Further\, clinicians can be influenced by patient requests that stem from beliefs that more health care intervention is superior. \n\nA promising solution to this problem that leverages insights from behavioral economics is to ask clinicians to commit to follow specific Choosing Wisely recommendations before patient encounters when their thinking can be more deliberative\, and then provide point-of-care supports to promote adherence to these commitments during patient encounters.  We recently tested this strategy in 6 primary care clinics and found it led to a significant reduction in orders for potentially low-value services\, but may also have increased substitute orders of questionable value.  These results highlight not only the great potential of this low-cost\, highly exportable strategy to discourage clinicians from ordering low-value services in a range of health care settings\, but also the potential for unintended consequences of efforts to reduce low-value care.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Special Seminar: The impact of fire\, nutrients\, and their interaction on the carbon balance of savanna ecosystems
DESCRIPTION:Carbon emissions from fires in savannas and forests play a key role in the global carbon cycle. As climates change and fires become more frequent and intense\, it will be critical to understand what factors determine the resilience of ecosystems to fire. Here\, I will present work from tropical savannas in Africa and South America that tests how fire changes ecosystem carbon storage\, and the role that climate\, nutrients\, and plant traits play in mediating the response of savannas to fire. By sampling fire manipulation experiments that have been ongoing for half a century\, I found that fire depleted carbon and nutrient pools in soils and vegetation\, but that the degree of the effect and the regulating mechanisms depended on climate. The fire-driven nutrient losses filtered the plant community towards more nutrient conservative slow-growing species\, suggesting nutrient limitation may limit the recovery of vegetation. Along similar lines\, particular plant traits regulated whether species could avoid mortality during fire and were significant determinants of carbon losses at the landscape scale. These results raise new questions about how nutrient losses may limit carbon sequestration\, and whether the distribution of plant functional traits can be used to predict resilience across different ecosystems\, which I will discuss in the context of my current and future work.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Measuring Dark Energy and The Hubble Constant With Type Ia Supernovae
DESCRIPTION:Type Ia Supernovae (SNIa) continue to be a critical probe in measurements of dark energy and The Hubble constant. I will discuss the role of SNIa in a new local measurement of the Hubble Constant by the SH0ES team that is in tension with measurements of the Hubble Constant from analysis of the Cosmic Microwave Background. I will discuss ongoing analyses from PanSTARRS and The Dark Energy Survey to provide state-of-the-art constraints on dark energy with SNIa. I will also present multiple new advances in methods of standardizing and calibrating these supernovae. Finally I will look ahead to the next generation of surveys including LSST and WFIRST and discuss critical questions about systematics of current analyses that must be solved for these future surveys to be successful.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Integrable Systems and Random Matrix Theory
DESCRIPTION:This is a continuation of last week's seminar: In this lecture\, we consider the famed doubly-infinite Toda lattice which is completely-integrable. 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. Speaker(s): Deniz Bilman (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Combinatorics Seminar
DESCRIPTION:The rank of a tensor T in V_1 \otimes V_2 ... \otimes V_n is the smallest integer k such that T can be written as a sum of k pure tensors. This notion coincides with matrix rank if there are only 2 tensor factors. However\, the situation is considerably more complicated when there are more tensor factors. In this talk I will attempt to describe the importance as well as the challenges in understanding tensor rank and other related notions. Speaker(s): Viswambhara Makam (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Group\, Lie and Number Theory
DESCRIPTION:The local Langlands correspondence predicts that representations of a reductive group G over a p-adic field are related to Galois representations into the Langlands dual of G.  A conjecture of Kottwitz (as generalized by Rapoport and Viehmann) asserts that this relationship appears in a precise way in the cohomology of \"local Shimura varieties\"\, which were shown to exist by Scholze.  We don't know how Galois acts on this cohomology yet\, but we can verify much of the rest of the conjecture\, in a large degree of generality\, using a Lefschetz-Verdier fixed point formula. This is joint work with Tasho Kaletha. Speaker(s): Jared Weinstein (Boston University)

DESCRIPTION:Ian Hunter was a legend of rock music\, first as the frontman of Mott the Hoople\, then with a fabulous solo career in the 1970s and beyond. But\, as always\, while proud of his past achievements\, Ian would prefer to focus on the future. “To me\, music is holy\,\" he asserts\, adding that \"for the first fifteen years of my life\, I had no idea what I was here for. But then Elvis came out and it was\, \"Oh\, that’s what I am here for.\" Rock 'n' roll got me out and gave me a great life and I don't know what I would have done without it. It's all I know and my identity is all tied up with it.\" Ian Hunter’s latest studio album\, \"Fingers Crossed\,\" unveils ten new\, self-penned songs including his much-anticipated homage to David Bowie\, \"Dandy.\" Recorded at HOBO Studios in New Jersey\, the record features his magnificent Rant Band and is the follow-up to 2012’s acclaimed \"When I’m President.\"

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Avian Vessels: Mixed Media Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Cincinnati based sculptor Karen Heyl has been professionally sculpting stone since 1984. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Symposium: Ambiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\nAmbiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural is a symposium and concurrent exhibition that situates contemporary discourses and practices of architecture and landscape within the context of the Postnatural\; the era of climate change\, the Anthropocene\, and altered ecologies. 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

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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Catie Newell: Overnight
DESCRIPTION:Detroit-based architect Catie Newell’s work is focused on the tactile\, sensory qualities of the materials we use to build things: their texture\, density\, or malleability. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manuel Álvarez Bravo: Mexico’s Poet of Light
DESCRIPTION:Manuel Álvarez Bravo spent nearly his entire career photographing his native Mexico. 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

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.

DESCRIPTION:Epidemics\, Kevin Bacon\, and the New Science of Networks\n\nThere are networks in every part of our lives: the Internet\, the road network\, networks of friendship or acquaintance\, biochemical networks\, ecological networks\, the power grid\, and many others.  As large-scale data on these networks has become available in the last few years\, a new science of networks has grown up combining observations and theory to shed light on systems ranging from bacteria to the whole of human society.  This talk will give an introduction to this rapidly-growing interdisciplinary branch of science\, and explain some its best known results and what they can tell us about the way the world works.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EIHS Lecture: \"From California to Italy: The Rise of an International Public History\"
DESCRIPTION:Public history has been receiving increasing attention in academic circles. Since Robert Kelley coined the terms in the early 1970s at the University of California at Santa Barbara\, public history programs have been created all over the United States. Its success now goes well beyond North America as proved by the existence of an international federation\, international conferences\, international projects\, and the newly created Italian Federation for Public History. In his talk\, Professor Cauvin will question the successes and the limits of an international public history\, the transformation of the original model\, and the future of public history training in universities.\n\nThomas Cauvin is an assistant professor of history at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. Born in France\, he received his PhD at the European University Institute (Italy) and has taught in France\, Ireland\, Italy\, and the United States. His research focuses on memory and museums\, Irish history\, and Louisiana's French-speaking heritage. Cauvin is a board member of the International Federation for Public History and has written the first single-authored textbook on public history: Public History: A Textbook of Practice.\n\nFree and open to the public. Lunch provided. \n\nThis event is made possible by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | Rebellion and Repression in China\, 1966-1969: New Perspectives on the Cultural Revolution
DESCRIPTION:In the first few years of China's Cultural Revolution\, one of the largest political upheavals of the 20th century immobilized a highly centralized party state\, leading to a harsh regime of military control. Employing a dataset drawn from historical narratives published in 2\,215 county and city annals\, we can trace the temporal and geographic spread of a mass insurgency\, its evolution through time\, and the repression through which militarized state structures were rebuilt. The macro-patterns yield observations that conflict with impressions of the period based on accounts from selected large cities\, and reveal previously unsuspected political dynamics. The materials also yield grounded estimates of the numbers of dead and other victims and permits us to assess these upheavals from a broader comparative perspective.\n\nAndrew Walder is Professor of Sociology at Stanford University\, and the author of \"Fractured Rebellion: The Beijing Red Guard Movement\" (Harvard University Press\, 2009)\, and \"China Under Mao: A Revolution Derailed\" (Harvard\, 2015). This talk is based on a book in progress that will analyze\, from the perspective of historically-oriented political sociology\, the conflicts that destroyed China’s civilian state in 1967 and the repression through which state structures were rebuilt over the following two years.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Michigan Wonderland Gems & Jewels
DESCRIPTION:Betsy Lehndorff’s jewelry is influenced by her life in Hubbard Lake in northeastern Michigan. 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.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Taming Nonlinear Optical Interactions with Non-Hermiticity
DESCRIPTION:In this talk I will present our recent work on utilizing non-Hermitian engineering in order to tailor nonlinear optical responses. I will describe how the interplay between different nonlinear processes\, gain and/or loss can lead to several novel effects having potential practical applications. In particular\, I will discuss three relevant topics: single mode supersymmetric laser arrays\, loss-enabled unidirectional frequency conversion in optical wave-mixing setups\, and synthetic saturable absorbers in bosonic nonlinear waveguide arrays. \n\nBio: Ramy El-Ganainy received his PhD\, in 2009\, from the College of Optics and Photonics (CREOL)\, University of Central Florida.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Human Rights Program Distinguished Lecture: Are We Making Progress in Human Rights? Transformations in Knowledge and Activism
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, Professor Sikkink draws on material from her forthcoming book Making Human Rights Work: Evidence for Hope.  Recently there has been a surge of pessimism about the legitimacy and effectiveness of human rights law\, institutions\, and movements. Sikkink argues that transformations in the world generated by human rights ideas and activism have paradoxically clouded our ability to evaluate and measure progress because we now know more and care more about human rights issues than even before. To engage in a more productive debate\, the nature of the critique\, definitions of terms\, and methods being used to measure progress all need to be clarified.  Professor Sikkink examines these issues\, and argues that careful issue-by-issue examination of the evidence on human rights progress and decline offers a more complex and hopeful picture than that suggested by the pessimists.  \n\nKathryn Sikkink is the Ryan Family Professor of Human Rights Policy at the Kennedy School of Government\, and the Carol K. Pforzheimer Professor at the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study. Sikkink works on international norms and institutions\, transnational advocacy networks\, the impact of human rights law and policies\, and transitional justice.  Her publications include The Justice Cascade: How Human Rights Prosecutions are Changing World Politics (awarded the Robert F. Kennedy Center Book Award\, and the WOLA/Duke University Award)\; Mixed Signals: U.S. Human Rights Policy and Latin America\; Activists Beyond Borders: Advocacy Networks in International Politics (co-authored with Margaret Keck and awarded the Grawemeyer Award for Ideas for Improving World Order\, and the ISA Chadwick Alger Award for Best Book in the area of International Organizations)\; and The Persistent Power of Human Rights: From Commitment to Compliance\, (co-edited with Thomas Risse and Stephen Ropp).  She holds an MA and Ph.D. from Columbia University.  Sikkink has been a Fulbright Scholar in Argentina and a Guggenheim fellow. She is a member of the American Philosophical Society\, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and the Council on Foreign Relations\, and a member of the editorial board of the International Studies Quarterly\, International Organization\, and the American Political Science Review.

SUMMARY:Other:The Quest for Efficient Ligands in Asymmetric C-H Functionalizations
DESCRIPTION:Reactions involving the selective activation and subsequent functionalization of C-H bonds have a high synthetic value because of their economic and ecological benefits. Despite many advances in addressing reactivity and refining mechanistic understanding\, catalytic enantioselective transformations remain very challenging. The often required harsh reaction conditions\, the use of uncommon ligand systems or bar metal salts have hampered developments in this area. The development of efficient ligands is crucial to success for asymmetric reactions. The presentation will cover enantiotopic functionalizations of C(sp3)-H bonds using Pd(0) complexes. Moreover\, the development of chiral cyclopentadienyls (Cpx) as enabling ligand platform will be presented. Equipped with these Cpx ligands\, a variety of late transition-metals are competent catalysts for enantioselective C-H activations. Several examples illustrate their utility for a streamlined access to functionalized chiral building blocks.\nNicolai Cramer (Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Colloquium Series
DESCRIPTION:The uniform spanning tree on Z2 is just one point of a two-parameter  family of measures on \"essential spanning forests\" in Z2.  These are spanning forests with a positive density of component trees\, each with two ends. These measures first appeared (in disguised form) in work of Carroll/Speyer on the cube recurrence\, and work of Fomin on the loop-erased walk.\n\nWe explain how these measures arise naturally in the study of the graph Laplacian (for planar graphs). We then construct scaling limits of spanning forest processes on multiply connected domains with fixed boundary connections and paths having prescribed homotopy type. The resulting limit objects are singular measured foliations. Speaker(s): Richard Kenyon (Brown University)

SUMMARY:Film Screening:What Women Want 我知女人心
DESCRIPTION:Electric Shadows: 2016 Contemporary Chinese Film Series\n\nSponsored by the Confucius Institute and Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies at U-M\, Electric Shadows: 2016 Contemporary Chinese Film Series will feature five popular Chinese films released in recent years. \n\nWhat Women Want Synopsis:\n\nThis light-hearted film is a remake of 2000 romantic comedy film What Women Want starring Mel Gibson and Helen Hunt.  The plot is almost identical as the Hollywood version\, but the story takes places at a Beijing advertising agency. An arrogant\, narcissistic ad executive\, played by Andy Lau\, has his fated freak accident\, which gives him a very special gift (or maybe a curse) of being able to read women’s thoughts. He misuses his new gift to cheat and promote himself\, but he realizes that he is falling in love with his competitor.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Avian Vessels: Mixed Media Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Cincinnati based sculptor Karen Heyl has been professionally sculpting stone since 1984. 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.

A precursor to the Common Core\, the MMC was first implemented on the 8th grade cohort of the 2006-2007 academic year. I study how post-secondary outcomes change when this STEM-focused curricular reform was put in place. I show that there was a marked increase in college attendance\, especially among 4-year colleges\, in treated cohorts. Under the MMC\, community college students took substantially more STEM coursework\, and performed better across all fields\, but these gains are not observed among students at 4-year schools. In fact\, 4 year students perform significantly worse after the MMC\, which I argue is a compositional effect of the policy.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Documenting Detroit - A Monts Hall Photo Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Documenting Detroit is a collection of photographs taken by students from the College for Creative Studies during the 1970s and 1980s. Under the guidance of Detroit photographer and photography instructor Bill Rauhauser\, students turned the urban landscape into works of art.\n\nThis exhibition offers a select sample of a vast collection that includes nearly 1\,250 photographs of Detroit\, from churches to construction sites\, grocery stores to warehouses\, hospitals to schools\, and many others. The collection also provides a snapshot of visual symbols of Detroit during 20th century\, including the Michigan Central Train Station\, the J. L. Hudson’s Department Store on Woodward Avenue\, construction of the Renaissance Center and Joe Louis Arena\, and the abandonment of Poletown and the Warehouse District. Photographs also document everyday Detroit\, such as favorite restaurants (Jacoby’s\, Astoria Bakery\, Pegasus Taverna\, Circa 1890 Saloon\, and Sweetwater Tavern)\, families on Belle Isle\, and vendors at Eastern Market.\n\nYou can search the entire Documenting Detroit collection and develop your own primary source sets by visiting: http://detroiths.pastperfect-online.comand search for “Documenting Detroit.” The current exhibit is available during regular Detroit Center hours\, now through November 30\, 2016.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Symposium: Ambiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\nAmbiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural is a symposium and concurrent exhibition that situates contemporary discourses and practices of architecture and landscape within the context of the Postnatural\; the era of climate change\, the Anthropocene\, and altered ecologies. 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

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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Catie Newell: Overnight
DESCRIPTION:Detroit-based architect Catie Newell’s work is focused on the tactile\, sensory qualities of the materials we use to build things: their texture\, density\, or malleability. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manuel Álvarez Bravo: Mexico’s Poet of Light
DESCRIPTION:Manuel Álvarez Bravo spent nearly his entire career photographing his native Mexico. 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

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.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Health\, History\, Demography & Development (H2D2)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nOutreach workers are widely used to increase the access to health services\, particularly for minority groups. The difference in ethnicity of an outreach worker and that of a prospective patient can limit the success of such efforts. Using a field experiment in Nepal\, we investigate the extent of such barriers and if differential incentives can help offset them. We varied the amount of financial incentives provided to health outreach workers by the ethnicity of the client they recruited for a free sugar-level assessment. We also varied the amount the clients received for appearing for the assessment. We find that the barriers due to ethnicity are high. Even a highly differential incentive in the ratio of 5:2\, geared toward encouraging the workers to recruit clients from an ethnic group different than their own\, is insufficient to fully offset the barriers. In sub-group analysis\, we find suggestive evidence that differential incentives to advantaged outreach workers have the potential to improve access for traditionally disadvantaged groups. We also find that the advantaged and disadvantaged health workers face different amounts of barriers to outreach efforts. Financial incentives to the clients had no effect on their decision to appear for the assessment.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Medieval Lunch. Lulling and Soothing in 'Lullay lullay little child’
DESCRIPTION:This paper examines a “Lullay lullay littel child\, why wepëstou so sore?” our earliest witness to what we easily label as a “lullaby.” It seeks to pull apart this quick identification and really put pressure on what the term “lullaby” carries with it\, and what we bring to a poem when we apply this label. It at once uses the categorical type to put pressure on the particular poem and the particular poem to put pressure on the category. The crux of understanding the history of the lullaby lies in the essential concept of soothing. This paper traces the meaning back from our modern sense based on comfort to the medieval idea of truth to propose that the truth-telling capacity of the lullaby in and of itself provided a source of comfort for its audience (or performer).

SUMMARY:Meeting:Social Area Brown Bag
DESCRIPTION:The behavioral ecology of psychological variation: population density\, relatedness\, and disease\n\nRecent work has documented a wide range of important psychological differences both between and within societies. Multiple explanations have been proposed to understand why such differences exist\, including historical philosophies\, subsistence methods\, social mobility\, social class\, climatic stresses\, and religion. With the growing body of theory and data\, some broader questions are becoming pertinent. What are the foundational dimensions of culture? What are the origins of psychological variation between groups? I propose that a behavioral ecological approach\, particularly the idea of phenotypic plasticity\, can (1) help unite existing explanations\, (2) generate novel predictions\, and (3) ultimately facilitate the creation of an ecological taxonomy of cultures\, from which one might derive a rich set of predictions with respect to psychological variation across human groups. I will focus on relevant work and predictions on the psychological effects of population density\, genetic relatedness\, and pathogen prevalence.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Importance of Aperture: The Scenic Illusion Paintings (通景画) of the Forbidden City and the Vestiges of Italian Scenography?
DESCRIPTION:With the restoration of the Juanqin zhai within the Forbidden City\, the scenic illusion paintings commissioned by the emperor Qianlong have received unprecedented attention. The scholarly literature in both Chinese and English on scenic illusion painting has traced a direct line of descent from the Jesuit painter Andrea Pozzo’s painting for ecclesiastical spaces. However\, the discovery of one such scenic illusion painting that had originally hung as a stage backdrop furnishes visual evidence that speaks to the importance of Italian scenic design for the stage in these paintings\, and allows us to see them quite literally in a new perspective. In this lecture\, I address the importance of the training of the Italian painters who came to Beijing\, Gherardini and Castiglione\, in the Bolognese school of polyfocal perspectivalism\, and most crucially\, show how monofocal perspectivalism was understood by Chinese artists and theorists in terms of proportional representation. Perspectivalism is so often made to bear the weight of indexing European contact with Chinese artists\; this material crucially allows us to open the conception of perspectivalism and to reduce the emphasis on monofocal perspective in scholarly thinking regarding the contact of Chinese artists with the west.\n\n*Image: The Juanqinzhai of the Forbidden City\n\nBiography\n\nSophie Volpp is Associate Professor of Chinese and Comparative Literature at the University of California Berkeley. The author of Worldly Stage: Theatricality in Seventeenth-Century China\, she is completing a book on literary objects in seventeenth- and eighteenth-century Chinese fiction.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Michigan Wonderland Gems & Jewels
DESCRIPTION:Betsy Lehndorff’s jewelry is influenced by her life in Hubbard Lake in northeastern Michigan. 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.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Financial/Actuarial Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:The share of market making conducted by high-frequency trading (HFT) firms has been rising steadily. A distinguishing feature of HFTs is that they trade intraday\, ending the day flat. To shed light on the economics of HFTs\, and in a departure from existing market making theories\, we model a profit maximizer HFT that has access to unlimited leverage intraday but must fund any end-of-day inventory at an exogenously determined cost. We provide a complete solution to the discrete-time control problem using the invariant concave structure of the value function. We find that smooth fit holds on the boundaries\, and hence the value function is continuously differentiable in the inventory level at any time. \nEven though the inventory costs only occur at the end of the day\, they impact intraday price and liquidity dynamics. This gives rise to an intraday endogenous price impact mechanism. As time approaches the end of the trading day\, the sensitivity of prices to inventory levels intensifies\, making price impact stronger and widening bid-ask spreads. Moreover\, imbalance of buy and sell orders may catalyze hikes and drops of prices\, even under fixed supply and demand functions. Empirically\, we show that these predictions are borne out in the U.S. Treasury market\, where bid-ask spreads and price impact tend to rise towards the end of the day. Furthermore\, price movements are negatively correlated with changes in inventory levels as measured by the cumulative net trading volume.\n\n(joint work with Tobias Adrian\, Erik Vogt\, and Hongzhong Zhang) Speaker(s): Agostino Capponi (Columbia University)

SUMMARY:Other:Targeting Privileged First Responders in Electrophile Signaling
DESCRIPTION:The precisely timed and spatially regulated chemical signals are the essence of biochemical redox signaling. However\, defining the precise biological impacts of localized signals that engage with specific protein targets under physiologic conditions has proven to be highly challenging. This abstract presents a unique set of proximity-directed chemical tools that enables powerful interrogation into functional consequences of on-target redox events through precision redox targeting in living systems. With this in vivo-validated redox-targeting toolset\, we identify isozyme-specific “first responders” sufficient to drive phenotypic responses at organismal level. Our unique chemical biology toolset sets the stage for ruling in gain-of-function (or dominant loss-of-function) redox modifications and relating them to phenotype in an unbiased experiment that is not hampered by functional redundancy.\nYimon Aye (Cornell University)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Algebraic Geometry
DESCRIPTION:The study of the birational group of Fano hypersurfaces was undertaken by Fano in dimension three\, and has lead to the proof\, by Iskovskikh and Manin\, that smooth quartic threefolds are not rational.\nTheir work eventually led to the notion of birational rigidity. In this talk I will overview the problem. I will start from Segre and Manin's theorem on cubic surfaces over nonclosed fields\, and explain how similar ideas can be used to establish birational rigidity in higher dimensions.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Analysis/Probability
DESCRIPTION:The lattice formulation of quantum Yang-Mills theory allows for all quantities to be computed in terms of well-defined random matrix integrals. In this talk\, we consider the case of dimension two\, for which a continuum limit (due to Migdal-Witten) is known and exactly solvable. We discuss two mysterious occurrences of stochastic analysis in this setting: (1) the appearance of GUE integrals arising from heat kernel asymptotics and complex-analytic integrals\; (2) an adaptation of stochastic calculus to \"Gaussian\" free fields that have indefinite covariance matrix. These results fall under the author's program of investigating the relationship between lattice and continuum quantum gauge theories.\n Speaker(s): Timothy Nguyen (Michigan State University)

SUMMARY:Performance:The Dustbowl Revival
DESCRIPTION:Bluegrass. Swing. Hot jazz. Prewar blues. Southern soul. New Orleans funk. The Dustbowl Revival is what you could call an American roots orchestra with eight full-time members — and they play it all\, mashing the sounds of traditional American music into a genre-hopping\, time-bending dance party that coaxes new fire out of familiar coal. This isn’t a throwback band. It’s a celebration of the sounds that have kept America moving for more than a century\, performed with all the flair of a medicine show and rooted in the sweat and swagger of a juke joint song swap.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Avian Vessels: Mixed Media Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Cincinnati based sculptor Karen Heyl has been professionally sculpting stone since 1984. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Symposium: Ambiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\nAmbiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural is a symposium and concurrent exhibition that situates contemporary discourses and practices of architecture and landscape within the context of the Postnatural\; the era of climate change\, the Anthropocene\, and altered ecologies. 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

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.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:RUSSIA AS A DISSATISIFIED POWER
DESCRIPTION:Before taking on his present position in 1999\, Dr. Garnett spent 15 years in Washington focused on arms control\, the U.S.S.R.\, Russia\, Ukraine and security issues in the former U.S.S.R. in the U.S. Government and as a Senior Associate at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.\n\nU.S.-Russian relations remain tense and are an important challenge for the next U.S. president. The roots of the tensions are to be found in Russia’s difficult\ntransition\, its dissatisfaction with its regional and global status\, and the U.S.’s inability to find the right balance between Russia and its neighbors.\n\nThis is the fourth in a six-lecture series. The subject is Russia – Unriddled. The next lecture will be October 20\, entitled IMAGINING DEMOCRACY: ELITES AND LEADERS IN RUSSIA’S LONG JOURNEY FROM COMMUNISM

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Catie Newell: Overnight
DESCRIPTION:Detroit-based architect Catie Newell’s work is focused on the tactile\, sensory qualities of the materials we use to build things: their texture\, density\, or malleability. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manuel Álvarez Bravo: Mexico’s Poet of Light
DESCRIPTION:Manuel Álvarez Bravo spent nearly his entire career photographing his native Mexico. 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

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.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:China’s Financial Strategy and Capital Market Reform
DESCRIPTION:To sustain the growth of Chinese economy\, especially in the context of “New Normal\,” China needs a much stronger financial system with an effective resource allocation and risk diversification mechanism. The key elements to build this system include internationalizing RMB\, building an international financial center\, and making Chinese capital market one of the most important global asset allocation destinations. Focusing on the capital market\, there is still a huge gap between China’s ideal capital market and the current market. To bridge this gap\, the Chinese government needs to reconfigure the reform\, open up the stock and bond market\, and change the regulations and related laws.\n\nProfessor WU Xiaoqiu is a renowned economist and financial securities expert in China. He currently serves as Vice President of Renmin University of China\, Executive Deputy Dean of Graduate School\, and Director of Finance and Securities Institute in China.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series | Image Music Text: The Language of Ozu's Late Silent Films
DESCRIPTION:This presentation analyzes material differences in Ozu Yasujiro's late silent films in order to reveal the different aesthetic projects that they embodied\, within the overarching mode of the “Kamata-style” melodrama. Ozu's consciousness of form extends beyond camera level and the construction of space recognized by prior authors to the signifying power of the intertitle as a form of “visual speech.” In the presentation\, Raine will provide an historical context for Ozu’s engagement with the intertitle and then survey his changing usage\, in particular in the late silent films from Woman of Tokyo (Tokyo no onna\, 1933) to College is a Nice Place (Daigaku yoi toko\, 1936\, lost). He argues that we can tease out a succession of aesthetic projects in these films: first\, an exploration of the properties of intertitle syntax and frequency in the films of 1933 and then a heretofore unrecognized exploitation of the “sound version” (films with music and sometimes sound effects and speech\, but no synchronized dialog) to silence the bathos of benshi narration and create subtle\, synaesthetic effects that we might liken to visual repartee. \n    \nMichael Raine is an Assistant Professor at the film studies department of Western University\, Canada. He received his Ph.D. in film studies from the University of Iowa and has taught Japanese Cinema and World Cinema at Yale University and the University of Chicago. He has published on a wide range of topics in Japanese cinema and has subtitled approximately 60 films for classes\, commercial release\, and the Udine film festival. His research interests lie in the transition to sound in Japanese cinema\, wartime image culture\, and the Japanese new wave.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Indian Ocean Archaeology 2016: Year of Crises
DESCRIPTION:Usually our archaeological presentations and reports give a picture of steady progress in the building of knowledge. Sometimes however\, we have a cascade of crises\, but natural and cultural\, and this has been such a year in the Western Indian Ocean. In this talk\, Dr. Wright will begin with a project driven by a natural crisis: the loss of important coastal sites to the increasingly rapid rise in sea level in the Comorian Archipelago. Then he will move on to modern cultural crisis in archaeology in Madagascar\, driven by economic deficits and national politics\, but effecting the research of but Malagasy archaeology students and visiting foreign researchers\, as well as Madagascar's national heritage collections. In spite of the difficulties\, he and his colleagues have made good progress this year on issues of dealing with fragile marginal environments\, ancient trade systems\, and the first steps toward the emergence of states.

SUMMARY:Presentation:P&SC Brown Bag
DESCRIPTION:Heterogeneity of historical migration and individual-level cultural adaptation\n\nIn our rapidly globalizing world it has become increasingly common for individuals to move to or spend time in a foreign\, host country. Previous research has largely focused on how personality characteristics affect cultural adaptation in the host country. In this project we extend previous research by measuring the influence of the social context\, specifically the heterogeneity of the host country’s inhabitants. We predicted that individuals would have an easier time adapting to historically more heterogeneous contexts. In Studies 1 and 2\, we used publicly available data to test whether heterogeneity influences cultural adaptation of International Business Students and Peace Corps volunteers. In Study 2\, we experimentally manipulated heterogeneity and tested whether individuals anticipated adapting more in hypothetical work assignments that were in historically heterogeneous locations. Across both studies we found support for our hypothesis that greater historical heterogeneity is associated with higher levels of cultural adaptation. Implications for acculturation and immigration will be discussed.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Michigan Wonderland Gems & Jewels
DESCRIPTION:Betsy Lehndorff’s jewelry is influenced by her life in Hubbard Lake in northeastern Michigan. 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.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Commutative Algebra
DESCRIPTION:We have long known\, or implicitly used\, that to a potential splitting \phi of the Frobenius homomorphism on a ring R of positive characteristic one can assign a divisor on Spec(R)\, and these divisors describe the Frobenius splitting behavior of \phi at height one primes. We generalize this process and assign coefficients called log discrepancies to valuations on Spec(R/P) for primes P of R. Using these log discrepancies\, we can characterize the Frobenius splitting behavior of \phi at any point of Spec(R). Speaker(s): Eric Canton (University of Nebraska)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Analysis/Probability Learning Seminar
DESCRIPTION:The Kadison-Singer problem was a longstanding open problem in functional analysis regarding the extension of certain functionals on C* algebras. The statement was widely believed to be false\, but was proved true by Marcus\, Speilman and Srivastava in 2013. Their proof used the properties of real stable polynomials to yield unexpected results for random matrices\, such as a nonlinear first moment method and control of the mean characteristic polynomial. In this talk\, we will outline the proof and use the tools of MSS to prove an intermediate result - the Paving conjecture\, from which Kadison-Singer follows.\n Speaker(s): Yan Shuo Tan (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Archaic Ambracia\, Epirote Ethnicity and an Early Elegiac Lament (SEG 41.540A)
DESCRIPTION:Ephraim Lytle received his B.A. in Classics from Pomona College and a Ph.D. in Classics from Duke University. His research focuses on Greek social and economic history\, with much of it treating activities and social classes peripheral to the polis and an ancient ideological focus on the citizen farmer. These interests include ancient fishing\, fishermen and\, more generally\, the sea. Such fluid subjects are not easily demarcated\, and while his research pays careful attention to epigraphic or literary texts it also tends to be wide-ranging and interdisciplinary\, incorporating interests that include\, for example\, ecology\, ethnography\, anthropology\, the history of technology\, and the longue durée. \n\nHe has published articles that treat historical questions related to various Greek epigraphic documents--the Kean ruddle decrees\, the temple accounts from Hellenistic Delos\, a Boeotian price decree\, an Ephesian building account\, a letter of Hadrian to Athens--as well as long-form articles that tackle problems ranging from the legal status of the sea and its fisheries in the ancient Mediterranean to the role of regional social and religious contexts in Oppian's Halieutica. His first book\, forthcoming at Cambridge University Press\, treats the social and economic importance of the tuna and its large-scale capture in Ancient Greece.

SUMMARY:Other:Controlled Polymerization Strategies For Conjugated Polymers and Polyelectrolytes
DESCRIPTION:Improvements in alternative energy technology rely on the development of new advanced materials. In this regard\, conjugated polymers and polyelectrolytes are both being explored for charge transport and ion transport applications. In this talk\, some synthetic methods to build well-defined polymeric materials will be discussed. For conjugated polymers\, Catalyst-Transfer Polycondensation (CTP) is typically employed to prepare materials with controlled molecular weights and relatively low dispersities. While Kumada cross-coupling is normally employed for these polymerization reactions\, Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling has tremendous potential to improve functional group tolerance and monomer scope. Our efforts to use nickel catalysts with Suzuki-Miyaura coupling for conjugated polymer synthesis will be discussed. Additionally\, some work on using Reversible-Deactivation Radical Polymerization (RDRP) to build phosphonium-based polyelectrolytes will be presented. \nKevin Noonan (Carnegie Mellon University)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Development
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nElderly workers in developing countries face certain frictions\, such as credit constraints\, in their retirement decisions that may not be as common among their counterparts in the developed world\, and these concerns may lead workers to work more or less than their preferred number of years. In this study\, I firstly use regression discontinuity methods to show that a large fraction of urban male heads of households in Brazil (roughly 45%) react contemporaneously to pension eligibility by retiring. Because retirement is not required to receive the pension\, workers should not react contemporaneously unless optimization frictions\, such as credit constraints\, are at work. Secondly\, I show that those in demographic groups more likely to be credit constrained are more reactive to pension eligibility. Thirdly\, I develop a model of retirement decisions that explores how pensions in the face of credit constraints can influence such decisions\, and I use this model to determine how the excessive generosity of pensions can explain the observed behavior over and above the simple credit constraint story. The model I develop allows me to estimate the welfare consequences of both the credit constraints and the generosity of the pension system.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar: Shedding light on the ‘dark side’ of carbon cycling: Environmental impacts on plant respiration from leaf to ecosystem
DESCRIPTION:Leaf respiration represents an immense flux of carbon dioxide from terrestrial ecosystems – approximately six times annual fossil fuel emissions – but remains one of the least understood aspects of the global carbon cycle. Multiple interacting environmental controls on respiration complicate its ability to be modeled and scaled\, and the direct and indirect environmental effects of climate change on this process further alters how plants cycle and store carbon over short and long time scales. Resolving major uncertainties – including the short-term temperature response and light inhibition of respiration – will greatly improve estimates of ecosystem carbon cycling\, especially in regions experiencing rapid environmental change\, as in the arctic tundra. Extensive field measurements made in intact ecosystems around the world reveal convergence of respiration responses to climate\, short-term change in temperature\, and leaf traits across diverse species representing different plant functional types. However\, evidence from experimentally altered boreal\, temperate\, and arctic ecosystems suggests potential adaptive differences among species under future climate change. When integrated into terrestrial biosphere models\, these results could provide more accurate estimates of current and projected carbon fluxes across the globe.\n\nWatch YouTube video: https://youtu.be/L4BBYq2VTEU

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Logic
DESCRIPTION:(One of the versions of) Hindman's theorem states that\, whenever we partition an infinite abelian group G in two cells\, there exists an infinite subset X of G such that the set FS(X) consisting of all sums of finitely many distinct elements of X is entirely contained within one of the cells of the partition. In this talk we will show that\, when one attempts to replace both instances of \"infinite\" with \"uncountable\" in the theorem above\, the resulting statement is not only false\, but actually very false. This is talk 1 out of n (where n is a still unknown nonzero countable ordinal). Joint work with Assaf Rinot. Speaker(s): David Fernandez Breton (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Topology
DESCRIPTION:The classical circle packing theorem of Koebe\, Andreev\, and Thurston says that given a triangulation $\tau$ of a closed\, orientable surface\, there is a unique constant curvature Riemannian metric on the surface so that the surface with this metric admits a circle packing with dual graph $\tau$.  Kojima\, Mizushima\, and Tan give a definition of a circle packing on surfaces with complex projective structures. Unlike in the metric case\, there is a deformation space of complex projective circle packings with combinatorics given by $\tau$. They conjecture that this space is homeomorphic to Teichm\\"{u}ller space. I'll present progress towards this conjecture for certain classes of triangulations.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Not An Alternative: Tactics for the Anthropocene
DESCRIPTION:Not An Alternative is a NY-based collective that works at the intersection of art\, activism\, and critical theory. Its mission is to affect popular understandings of histories\, symbols\, and institutions through the occupation and redeployment of popular vernacular\, semiotics\, and memes. Named in The New York Times and ArtNet’s “Best in Art in 2015” round-ups\, the group’s work has been widely exhibited nationally and internationally. Their latest project\, The Natural History Museum\, is a mobile and pop-up museum that highlights the socio-political forces that shape nature\, yet are excluded from traditional natural history museums.\n\nPresenting for the group is co-founder Beka Economopoulos.  Beka has two decades of experience working within the advocacy and sustainability sectors as the Director of Online Organizing at Greenpeace and the Director of Strategy at Fission Strategy\, where clients included United Nations Environment Programme and Global Climate Change Alliance.\n\nSupported by the University of Michigan Museum of Natural History and the University of Michigan Museum Studies Program.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Avian Vessels: Mixed Media Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Cincinnati based sculptor Karen Heyl has been professionally sculpting stone since 1984. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Works by Belle Kogan: First Female Industrial Designer
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition presents industrially-produced art pottery pieces designed by Belle Kogan (1902–2000)\, for Red Wing Potteries in Red Wing\, Minnesota. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Florence Flood\, November 1966
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit focuses on the destruction of Florence during the flood on November 4\, 1966. Among the collections severely impacted by the muddy waters were those in the Biblioteca Nazionale Centrale di Firenze. Book conservators from the United States and Western Europe were called in to help with the recovery efforts. The exhibit features a British team\, headed by Peter Waters\, which created a washing-drying-mending-rebinding system to deal with tens of thousands of books damaged by the disaster.\n\nThe two most important outcomes of the tragedy are the professional training of library conservators and the establishment of disaster preparedness and response programs.\n\nLearn more and register for the symposium\, The Flood in Florence\, 1966: A Fifty-Year Retrospective\, happening November 3-4\, 2016. https://www.lib.umich.edu/flood-florence-1966-fifty-year-retrospective

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Symposium: Ambiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\nAmbiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural is a symposium and concurrent exhibition that situates contemporary discourses and practices of architecture and landscape within the context of the Postnatural\; the era of climate change\, the Anthropocene\, and altered ecologies. 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

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.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Mitsui Finance
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nWe study the effect of relationships with financial intermediaries on firms' investment decisions and access to external finance. In the early twentieth century\, securities underwriters commonly held directorships with American corporations\; this was especially true for railroads\, the largest enterprises of the era. Section 10 of the Clayton Antitrust Act of 1914 prohibited investment bankers from serving on the boards of railroads for which they underwrote securities\, in order to eliminate the bankers' conflicts of interest. Using the volume of underwriting done by bankers on their boards to capture the extent to which railroads were affected by the regulation\, we find that following the implementation of Section 10 in 1921\, railroads that had maintained close affiliations with underwriters saw declines in their valuations\, investment rates and leverage ratios\, and increases in their costs of external funds. We perform falsification tests using data for industrials and utilities\, which were not subject ​to the prohibitions of Section 10\, and find no differential effect of relationships with underwriters on these firms following 1921. Our results are consistent with underwriters on corporate boards acting as delegated monitors. Our findings also highlight the potential for regulations intended to address conflicts of interest to disrupt valuable information flows.​

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Catie Newell: Overnight
DESCRIPTION:Detroit-based architect Catie Newell’s work is focused on the tactile\, sensory qualities of the materials we use to build things: their texture\, density\, or malleability. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manuel Álvarez Bravo: Mexico’s Poet of Light
DESCRIPTION:Manuel Álvarez Bravo spent nearly his entire career photographing his native Mexico. 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

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.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CSEAS Fridays at Noon Lecture Series: From subjects to relations: Bioethics and postcolonial politics in an HIV prevention trial in Cambodia
DESCRIPTION:Over the past decade and a half\, an increasing number of clinical trials have been conducted in Cambodia\, making the country a source of data about HIV\, malaria\, and other conditions. Has Cambodia also shaped the practice of clinical trials? If so\, how\, and to what effect? I take up this question of how contexts shape scientific practices by exploring Cambodia’s first experimental trial\, the Cambodia Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis trial. The trial was designed to test the safety and efficacy of tenofovir as a prevention for HIV infection\, and was cancelled in 2004. Debates about ethics of the trial invoked international bioethics guidelines\, as well as historical relations of vulnerability and responsibility between foreigners and Cambodians\, and between Cambodian leaders and Cambodian subjects. These debates shifted the object of concern in classical bioethics\, from the experimental human subject to the relation between subjects and researchers. This case illuminates how a postcolonial field of articulation in Cambodia reformulates classical bioethics.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CCG Technologies Seminar: \"Discovery of New Molecular Entities: Opportunities and Challenges\"
DESCRIPTION:Natural products (NPs) are central to the history and landscape of new molecular entities (NMEs) for human medicinal agents. A rigorous assessment of all FDA-approved NMEs reveals that NPs and their derivatives represent over 50% of currently marketed drugs. However\, their representation has diminished over the past two decades\, in part because of technical hurdles associated with screening of natural products in high-throughput assays against molecular targets\, and the reoccurrence of previously reported metabolites in follow-up processes. Here\, I present innovative\, state-of-the-art strategies for discovery of NMEs and describe the recent technical advances that have significantly reduced the barriers to discovery of NMEs. I will also assess the use of new genomic-based approaches to augment traditional strategies for studying NPs using a case study from my research in antimicrobial drug discovery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Michigan Wonderland Gems & Jewels
DESCRIPTION:Betsy Lehndorff’s jewelry is influenced by her life in Hubbard Lake in northeastern Michigan. 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.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:SynSem Discussion Group
DESCRIPTION:Fang Yuan will speak on \"The Copy-theoretic approach to Pivotal Constructions in Mandarin Chinese.\"\n\nAbstract\nThis study investigates the argument sharing problem in pivotal constructions in\nMandarin Chinese (hereafter called PCs). As shown in (1)\, the sentence permits more than one verb in a mono-clause without any markers of subordination or coordination. The pivot noun phrase NP 2 ta ‘he’ is regarded as both the theme of V 1 rang ‘let’ and the agent of VP 2 zuo baogao ‘make a report’. This phenomenon violates the bi-uniqueness requirement from the theta criterion\, causing the argument sharing problem.\n(1) NP 1 V 1 NP 2 VP 2\na. Lingdao rang ta zuo baogao.\nLeader let he make report ‘The leader asked him to make a report.’ To solve this problem in English control constructions\, the empty category\, PRO\, is proposed in GB. However\, the formulation of PRO has theoretical limitations\, and it faces more challenges in analyzing Chinese in which the finiteness and non-finiteness distinction remains disputable. Although the Movement Theory of Control eliminates some limitations of the control theory\, it does not solve the argument sharing problem because the theta criterion is disregarded. This paper aims at providing a derivational account of the argument sharing problem in PCs.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Applied Interdisciplinary Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:Particulate flows are ubiquitous in environmental\, geophysical and engineering processes. The intricate dynamics of these two-phase flows is governed by momentum transfer between the continuous fluid phase and the dispersed particulate phase. When significant temperature differences exist between the fluid and particles and/or chemical reactions take place at the fluid/particle interfaces\, the phases also exchange heat and/or mass\, respectively. While some multi-phase processes may be successfully modeled at the continuum scale through closure approximations\, an increasing number of applications require resolution across scales\, e.g. dense suspensions\, fluidized beds. Within a multi-scale micro/meso/macro-framework\, we develop robust numerical models at the micro and meso scales\, based on a Distributed Lagrange Multiplier/Fictitious Domain method and a two-way Euler/Lagrange method\, respectively. Collisions between finite size particles are modeled with a Discrete Element Method. Many real-life processes and/or flows involve non-spherical particles. Although there is still a lot to learn about flows laden with spherical particles\, there is also a strong incentive to develop new modeling tools to account for non-spherical\, angular\, convex or even non-convex particles. We discuss assorted issues related to the numerical modeling of flows laden with particles of arbitrary shape. Along the way\, we also address high performance computing issues related to our massively parallel numerical tools and challenges to efficiently transfer knowledge from small scales to large scales. We illustrate the modeling capabilities of our tools on the two following problems relevant of applications from the chemical engineering and process industry: (i) a rotating drum filled with non-convex particles and (ii) fixed and fluidized beds of multilobic (and hence non-convex) particles.

DESCRIPTION:In Information Geometry one  studies  the geometric properties of a manifold equipped with a Riemannian metric g and an affine connection  D  which are related by an equation.\nThe pair (g\, D) arises from  a divergence on a  manifold. Thus Information Geometry has some  applications to statistics.   A more general divergence induces a Finsler metric and a spray satisfying an\nequation.\n\nIn my talk\, I will give an introduction  the basic theory of information structures on a manifold.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Seminar | Nnaturalness
DESCRIPTION:We present a new mechanism to stabilize the electroweak hierarchy. We introduce N copies of the Standard Model with varying values of the Higgs mass parameter. This generically yields a sector whose weak scale is parametrically removed from the cutoff by a factor of 1/√{N}. Ensuring that reheating deposits a majority of the total energy density into this lightest sector requires a modification of the standard cosmological history\, providing a powerful probe of the mechanism. Current and near-future experiments will explore much of the natural parameter space. Furthermore\, supersymmetric completions which preserve grand unification predict superpartners with mass below mW × Mpl / MGUT 〜 10 TeV.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:SoConDi Discussion Group
DESCRIPTION:Marjorie Herbert will speak on \"Mouthing\, Fingerspelling\, or Both?: Codeswitching and Lexical Borrowing in American Sign Language (ASL)\"\n\nAbstract\nAccording to Poplack (1980)\, the most common outcomes of language contact found among the bilingual communities of the world are code-switching\, code-mixing\, and lexical borrowing\, and the contact situation involving American Sign Language (ASL) and spoken English\; however\, it is complicated by the fact that the two languages in question are transmitted in different modalities. Thus\, the question of the representation of spoken English\, transmitted via the oral-aural modality\, in the visuo-spatial modality of ASL\, and vice versa\, poses a problem for their linguistic analysis. The focus of this abstract is one of these outcomes\, ‘fingerspelling’\, in which signers represent English words by spelling them via the manual alphabet\, in the congenitally d/Deaf community\, and its implications for theories of lexical borrowing.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Investigating Landscape Evolution and Geochemical Processes in Antarctica (and beyond) Using Remote Orbital Spectroscopy
DESCRIPTION:Satellite data are a valuable resource for investigating geologic and environmental processes\, particularly in remote areas where traditional field work is difficult or impossible.  In Antarctica\, ice-free geologic exposures are particularly difficult to access and study despite their importance for understanding polar processes\, climate variability\, and Antarctic geologic history.  Satellite observations of the Antarctic\, however\, require revised calibration and atmospheric removal techniques in order to compare these orbital data to data measured in the field or laboratories.  Since these methodologies were developed\, they have helped to revolutionize our understanding of the Antarctic.  Properties and processes ranging from magma differentiation to the distribution of algal communities can be investigated remotely in the Antarctic.  One such process\, the chemical alteration of rock surfaces under cold and dry environmental conditions\, can be directly related to processes occurring on the surface of Mars.  Our ongoing Mars research incorporates data collected by the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) Curiosity rover to determine the similarities between weathering process on Earth and on Mars.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Biophysics Seminar: Professor Justin Taraska\, Laboratory of Molecular and Cellular Imaging\, NIH
DESCRIPTION:How does a network of interacting proteins work to accomplish a complex cellular function with extreme temporal and spatial precision?  The accumulation of a large body of knowledge over the last 50 years has paved the way to understanding the biology of the cell in amazing detail. While many molecules have been discovered\, their effects mapped by genetics and mutational analysis\, and in some cases their three dimensional structures solved with x-ray crystallography and EM\, we still do not fully understand the physical basis of many cellular events. I believe that by watching the functional behavior of these large meso-scale complexes in living cells—the native states of the enzymes—we will more clearly understand their complexity\, regulation\, and mechanisms.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:CSAS Film Screening of \"For the Love of a Man\"
DESCRIPTION:For the Love of a Man is a documentary on the fan following around South Indian superstar Rajinikanth. The star\, now in his mid-60s\, has become synonymous with larger than life characterizations in big budget films shot all over the world with elaborate music\, costumes\, and action sequences. The documentary explores how the star and every detail of his life become integral to the identities of the fans themselves as well as those around them. The visual ethic of fandom and star mimicry reveal a form of star worship that is unique to Indian cinema culture. The lives of fans and their families open us to themes of brotherhood\, aspiration\, political affiliation\, or even just means of being noticed. From bankruptcies to reformations from lives of crime\, the lives of the fans offer stories that range from the heroic to the horrific\, all in a day's work of turning a film star into a deity.\n\n\"For the Love of a Man\" an independent\, self-funded documentary\, and the first Tamil-language film to screen at the Venice Film Festival\, where it was nominated for the \"Venice Classics Award for Best Documentary on Cinema\" in the 2015.\n\nTrailer available at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xPuPmqsgwBc\n\nJoyojeet Pal is an assistant professor at the School of Information. His research is on technology and global development\, particularly issues of how technology is represented\, and its impact on individual and collective aspiration. He works on digital accessibility and social inclusion for people with disabilities in low- and middle-income countries\, specifically the role of mobile devices in workplace and social access for people with visual impairments. In addition\, he studies the use of social media in political outreach and brand building in the Global South\, particularly India. His interest in mainstream media and social movements in India led to the researching and production of \"For the Love of a Man\" an independent\, self-funded documentary on the religious\, political\, and economic origins of cinema fandom in India. It was nominated for the \"Venice Classics Award for Best Documentary on Cinema\" in the 2015 Venice Film Festival\, where the film premiered.\n\nDr. Swarnavel Eswaran Pillai is an assistant professor in the English\, and Media and Information Departments at Michigan State University. He is a graduate from the Film and Television Institute of India\, the premier Film School in Asia\, and the prestigious University of Iowa\, at Iowa City. He is an accomplished filmmaker\, and his recent documentaries include \"Unfinished Journey: A City in Transition\" (2012)\, \"Migrations of Islam\" (2014) and \"Hmong Memory at the Crossroads\" (2015). His research focuses on the history\, theory and production of documentaries\, and the specificity of Tamil cinema and its complex relationship with Hollywood as well as popular Hindi films. His recent books are \"Cinema: Sattagamum Saalaramum\" (Nizhal\, 2013)\, an anthology of essays on documentaries and experimental films in Tamil and \"Madras Studios: Narrative\, Genre\, and Ideology in Tamil Cinema\" (Sage Publications\, 2015).

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Short Films: Compensation/Her Giveaway/Talk to Me
DESCRIPTION:\"Compensation\": Tthe first feature by award-winning filmmaker Zeinabu irene Davis (Cycles and A Powerful Thang)\, presents two unique African-American love stories between a deaf woman and a hearing man. Inspired by a poem written by Paul Laurence Dunbar\, this moving narrative shares their struggle to overcome racism\, disability and discrimination. An important film on African-American deaf culture\, Davis innovatively incorporates silent film techniques (such as title cards and vintage photos) to make the piece accessible to hearing and deaf viewers alike\, and to share the vast possibilities of language and communication.\n\"Her Giveaway\": Carole Lafavor\, member of the Ojibwe tribe\, activist\, mother and registered nurse\, is a person with AIDS. In this candid and moving portrait\, Lafavor relates how she has come to terms with AIDS by combining her traditional beliefs and healing practices with Western medicine. Her \"giveaway\" to the larger AIDS community is more than just basic information\, it is an inspiring example of how we can all learn from the Native American philosophy of illness. \n\n\"Talk to Me\" is a documentary that takes viewers into the lives of children with autism at home and at school\, and profiles the efforts of their parents and teachers to help them achieve their potential. The families we meet are of different racial and socio-economic backgrounds struggling to obtain appropriate services for their children. … Whatever their incomes\, these families struggle to obtain appropriate services for their children\, and the film shows realistically that such resources are not always distributed fairly. Emma's parents have enrolled her in an at-home program\, while Adre's single mother\, who could certainly use such a program\, isn't even aware that they exist.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student AIM Seminar
DESCRIPTION:The talk will begin with a brief introduction to active soft matter\, matter composed of active agents which consume energy to generate motion.  Examples of active matter include schools of fish\, flocks of birds\,  collections of bio-polymers such as microtubules and actin\, and  swimming bacteria - the focus of the remainder of the talk. A kinetic theory describing the time-dependent distribution of bacterial swimmers is presented. The model includes hydrodynamic interactions among swimmers mediated through the surrounding low-reynolds-number flow. Through this model\, we ask \"how does confinement of active matter affect its dynamics?\" We consider the dynamics of concentrated regions of active matter and active matter confined to a droplet.

DESCRIPTION:Come join WolverineSoft for our annual 48-Hour Fall Game Design Competition!Spend a weekend in the Dude making a video game from scratch\, and win fabulous prizes! Come alone\, or with a team of up to four. Registration begins on Friday at 5:00 PM. We will also offer free pizza for all participants on Saturday at 6:00 PM.What is a Game Jam?A Game Jam (akin to a musical jam session) is a condensed length of time for developers to get together and create a video game. Game Jams provide a fun\, collaborative environment with many teams participating\, as well as a way for developers to test their own skills and see what they can accomplish in a short amount of time. At the end of the Jam\, teams play each others' creations and vote on their favorite games.There are prizes for the best teams\, but the real experience of a Game Jam is the knowledge gained during your development. The difference is immense between someone who has never completed a game\, and someone who has completed even a small one. Much of the development cycle happens AFTER the game is finished (polishing\, deployment\, marketing\, etc.) and much of the knowledge of game development comes from working on a project with a team\, and seeing it to completion.If any of this sounds interesting\, please come join us this weekend! We will be hosting tutorials in the first few hours of the Jam\, so no prior experience is necessary. Whether you are a programmer\, artist\, musician\, designer\, or just someone who wants to learn how to make games\, we look forward to seeing you there!

DESCRIPTION:With sales of three million albums worldwide\, the Verve Pipe was one of Michigan rock and roll's great success stories of the 1990s. Formed in East Lansing\, the band gained a following for its textured rock songs distinguished by inventive arrangements\, soul-searching lyrics and layered vocals. Lead singer Brian Vander Ark has gone onto a solo career and become an Ark favorite with his songs of family\, love\, and loss. But after being approached to submit a song for a compilation album called \"Calling All Kids\,\" the Verve Pipe reunited to record their award-nominated kids' CD\, \"A Family Album.\" Now the creative spark touched off by those sessions has led to more Verve Pipe music for adults as well. The Verve Pipe has had a reputation for dazzling live shows from the start\, and now they're back\, up close and personal\, at The Ark!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Avian Vessels: Mixed Media Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Cincinnati based sculptor Karen Heyl has been professionally sculpting stone since 1984. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Divided Images: Fiber
DESCRIPTION:Jill Ault is an Ann Arbor studio artist working in fiber\, primarily quilts\, with a BFA degree in painting from Eastern Michigan University. Her quilts are constructed of multiple copies of an image: a photograph\, a graphic design or a painting. She digitally prints variations of the image on fabric and divides the copies into many small squares (no two alike). When she carefully reassembles and sews together the squares\, parts of the image seem to move across and down the surface of the quilt. Ault exhibits nationally at fiber and quilt shows\, such as Quilt National in Athens\, Ohio and Fiberart International in Pittsburgh\, Pennsylvania.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Symposium: Ambiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\nAmbiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural is a symposium and concurrent exhibition that situates contemporary discourses and practices of architecture and landscape within the context of the Postnatural\; the era of climate change\, the Anthropocene\, and altered ecologies. 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

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.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Saturday Morning Physics | Growing Pains: The Tumultuous Youth of Stars
DESCRIPTION:Stars are the fundamental unit of astronomy - how they are born and evolve affects everything from the evolution of galaxies to the formation of planets.

Fortunately\, nature has given us a few nearby regions where massive stars light up the next generation\, revealing just how complicated growing up is for stars.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Catie Newell: Overnight
DESCRIPTION:Detroit-based architect Catie Newell’s work is focused on the tactile\, sensory qualities of the materials we use to build things: their texture\, density\, or malleability. 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.

DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wondered what makes our eyes work or how we see? We’ll dissect a cow’s eye to take a closer look at the organ that helps us see the world. How is it similar to and different from our eyes\, and those of other animals? How did eyes evolve? Learn the parts of the eye and how they work together to clarify our sight. While exploring the lens\, we’ll also talk about why some of us need glasses and how we can keep our eyes and our vision healthy. Join us for this interactive and fascinating demonstration!\n\nHands-on demonstrations are 20-30 minute free interactive programs on the 2nd floor of the Museum.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Japanese Prints of Kabuki Theater from the Collection of the University of Michigan Museum of Art
DESCRIPTION:Kabuki actors were superstars in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Japan. They were admired by passionate fans with an insatiable appetite for images of them\, fed by a publishing industry that mass-produced colorful woodblock prints of actors on stage that could be cheaply purchased as souvenirs of or substitutes for a theater experience. Japanese Prints of Kabuki Theater from the Collection of the University of Michigan Museum of Art presents a selection of these dramatic prints that connected fans to their idols\, including off- or backstage portrayals that satisfied fans’ voyeuristic curiosity about their favorite actors’ lives\, fantasy scenes of actors in unlikely groupings\, and even death portraits of especially famous actors. This introduction to the visual culture surrounding kabuki theater includes prints by major artists such as Utagawa Toyokuni (1769–1825)\, Utagawa Kunisada (1786–1865)\, Utagawa Kuniyoshi (1797–1861)\, and Toyohara Kunichika (1835–1900).\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, the William T. and Dora G. Hunter Endowment\, AISIN\, the E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Foundation\, and the University of Michigan Center for Japanese Studies. Additional generous support is provided by the Japan Foundation and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manuel Álvarez Bravo: Mexico’s Poet of Light
DESCRIPTION:Manuel Álvarez Bravo spent nearly his entire career photographing his native Mexico. 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

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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Michigan Wonderland Gems & Jewels
DESCRIPTION:Betsy Lehndorff’s jewelry is influenced by her life in Hubbard Lake in northeastern Michigan. 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.

SUMMARY:Performance:Darlingside
DESCRIPTION:With four distinct voices clustered around a single microphone\, Darlingside effortlessly draws audiences into their lush musical world. David Fricke of Rolling Stone describes them as \"a quartet with a rich line in acoustic textures and chamber-rock dynamics.\" The band’s sound\, with classical strings\, tight vocal arrangements\, bluegrass and rock instrumentation\, and smart lyricism\, is the product of complete collaboration among the four close friends. The group has no frontman\; instead\, lead vocals are traded from moment to moment\, and each song features a new combination of instruments and textures\, pulling heavily from folk\, retro-pop\, barbershop\, and chamber music. The music Darlingside plays is serious\, cinematic\, and deeply moving. Darlingside has been featured on NPR's World Cafe and in Paste magazine\, and they were a breakout act at the 2016 Ann Arbor Folk Festival.

Uzeyir Hajibelyi’s powerful music — at once profoundly sorrowful and ecstatic — provides the perfect backdrop to the story that Lord Byron called “the Romeo and Juliet of the East.”
