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.

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:Sinking City\, Between Civilization and the Deep Blue Sea
DESCRIPTION:Jakarta\, Indonesia has a serious problem with flooding. The city is literally sinking while also experiencing climate change related sea-level rise. Add to that the yearly heavy rainfall the city sees from the Southeast Asian monsoon and a population that has swelled beyond ten million due to rapid urbanization\, and it’s easy to see why Jakarta’s infrastructure is experiencing significant strain. Jakarta isn’t an isolated example of this perfect storm. It represents the future difficulty that coastal cities all over the world are likely to face.\n\nUnderstanding that lessons learned in Jakarta can have a global impact\, University of Michigan alumus Frank Sedlar set out to help with flood mitigation in Jakarta. Frank earned his master of science degree from Michigan Engineering and also studied the Indonesian language while at the university. Photojournalist and filmmaker Marcin Szczepanski and writer Ben Logan from Michigan Engineering chronicled Frank’s experience while in Jakarta working on modern solutions to Jakarta’s growing problem.\n\nPlease join us for an opening reception on Friday\, October 21 at 5 PM at the International Institute Gallery. Refreshments will be served.

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.

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: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: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:Traces: Reconstructing the History of a Chokwe Mask
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition Traces focuses on one artwork from the Museum's African holdings: a Chokwe mask that was collected in 1905 near the Angolan city of Dundo by the German explorer Leo Frobenius. Its presence at UMMA today—almost 7\,500 miles away from the context in which it was originally created\, used\, and valued—is the result of a long and tumultuous journey\, spanning a hundred years\, three continents\, and numerous people whose lives are forever connected to the artifact that passed through their hands.\nTraces tells the stories of some of these individuals as it reconstructs the “biography” of the mask. Drawing on the Museum’s African art collection and complemented with national loans\, the exhibition is informed by research that exposes the mask’s many layers and restores some of its historical complexity. Visitors will be able to look closely\, and in great detail\, at this intriguing artwork and its fascinating story.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the James and Vivian Curtis Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Center for the Education of Women's Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund and African Studies Center.

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:\"Overnight\" Panel Discussion at UMMA
DESCRIPTION:The work of Catie Newell\, assistant professor of architecture\, is featured in a solo exhibition\, entitled Overnight\, at the University of Michigan Museum of Art. Overnight includes photographs from her recent Rome Prize 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 UMMA. Opening June 11\, the show continues until November 6\, 2016 and is in the Stenn Gallery.\nHer investigations combine architectural research\, material studies\, and art experiments\, a strategy that has come to define her career\, and focus on the tactile\, sensory qualities of the materials we use to build things: their texture\, density\, or malleability.

Through urban interventions\, installations\, and photographs\, she investigates how darkness creates alternate environments\, with unseen geographies\, untold histories\, and secret identities.\nAs part of the exhibition\, join for a panel discussion and a celebration of the night on October 23 at 3pm.

SUMMARY:Performance:Lindsay Lou & The Flatbellys
DESCRIPTION:Michigan-born Lindsay Lou Rilko\, of Lindsay Lou & The Flatbellys\, has the kind of voice you can get lost in. One part jazz singer\, effortlessly transitioning octaves\, one part blues shouter\, soaring over the band like a clarion call\, and one part folk singer\, rousing them all together in song. The instruments and the bedrock of the band may come from bluegrass\, but the music that Lindsay Lou & The Flatbellys present can best be described as Americana. This is music that’s caught between the pull of the past and the push of the beckoning future\, ready to leap forward bursting with new ideas and youthful energy. Says Popmatters: \"The catchy and clever riffs recall the sharp 'popgrass' stylings of groups like The Punch Brothers and Joy Kills Sorrow.\"

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:Sinking City\, Between Civilization and the Deep Blue Sea
DESCRIPTION:Jakarta\, Indonesia has a serious problem with flooding. The city is literally sinking while also experiencing climate change related sea-level rise. Add to that the yearly heavy rainfall the city sees from the Southeast Asian monsoon and a population that has swelled beyond ten million due to rapid urbanization\, and it’s easy to see why Jakarta’s infrastructure is experiencing significant strain. Jakarta isn’t an isolated example of this perfect storm. It represents the future difficulty that coastal cities all over the world are likely to face.\n\nUnderstanding that lessons learned in Jakarta can have a global impact\, University of Michigan alumus Frank Sedlar set out to help with flood mitigation in Jakarta. Frank earned his master of science degree from Michigan Engineering and also studied the Indonesian language while at the university. Photojournalist and filmmaker Marcin Szczepanski and writer Ben Logan from Michigan Engineering chronicled Frank’s experience while in Jakarta working on modern solutions to Jakarta’s growing problem.\n\nPlease join us for an opening reception on Friday\, October 21 at 5 PM at the International Institute Gallery. Refreshments will be served.

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: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:John Cage: \"How to get Started\" sound installation
DESCRIPTION:Sound installation of John Cage's \"How to Get Started\,\" featuring a library of previous performances.\n\nAbout \"How to Get Started\": John Cage conceived HOW TO GET STARTED almost as an afterthought—a performance substituting for another that had been planned in 1989 for delivery at “Sound Design: An Invitational Conference on the Uses of Sound for Radio Drama\, Film\, Video\, Theater and Mu-sic” presented by Bay Area Radio Drama at Sprocket Systems\, Skywalker Ranch\, in Nicasio\, California.  In his introduction\, Cage talks about the difficulty of initiating the creative process\, while exploring the usefulness of improvisation\, a subject about which he had long been deeply ambivalent.  He proposes a col-laborative framework in which sound engineers capture and subsequently layer his extemporized monologue\, which consisted of ten brief commentaries on top-ics then of interest.  This amounted to an experiment having to do with thinking in public\, before a live audience.\n\nTwenty years after John Cage's first and only performance of HOW TO GET STARTED in Nicasio\, the John Cage Trust and Slought Foundation joined forces to create an interactive installation enabling the public to add yet another layer to the mix: your extemporizations on your ten topics of interest\, in your voice. Drawing upon Cage’s realization of HOW TO GET STARTED as a script in effect\, performers have been invited to participate in its further life\, both in public settings and in the more intimate\, specially designed recording studio at Slought.

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:Lecture / Discussion:Digital Humanities and the Black Diaspora
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Kira Thurman\, Assistant Professor of German and History at U-M\, explores how digital technologies such as web development and geo-spatial technologies can be effective tools in advocating for black diasporic histories. \n\nShe will highlight the creation of the wordpress site\, blackcentraleurope.com\, which offers a repository for primary documents and images related to the black diaspora to Central Europe from the medieval era to the present. She'll then look the incorporation of undergraduate classroom instruction into the website. In the winter semester of 2016\, UM's undergraduate course \"Germany and the Black Diaspora\" collaborated with librarians Mara Blake and Justin Joque to use the mapping software CartoDB to think historically about Black migration to Europe. In so doing\, they were able to make a history that has long been rendered invisible - the history of Black people in Europe - visible through data visualization technologies. Both of these projects - the creation of the site and the collaborative\, interactive map of Black Central Europe - have encouraged new conversations on campus and on both sides of the Atlantic about German history and Black studies.

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: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:Traces: Reconstructing the History of a Chokwe Mask
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition Traces focuses on one artwork from the Museum's African holdings: a Chokwe mask that was collected in 1905 near the Angolan city of Dundo by the German explorer Leo Frobenius. Its presence at UMMA today—almost 7\,500 miles away from the context in which it was originally created\, used\, and valued—is the result of a long and tumultuous journey\, spanning a hundred years\, three continents\, and numerous people whose lives are forever connected to the artifact that passed through their hands.\nTraces tells the stories of some of these individuals as it reconstructs the “biography” of the mask. Drawing on the Museum’s African art collection and complemented with national loans\, the exhibition is informed by research that exposes the mask’s many layers and restores some of its historical complexity. Visitors will be able to look closely\, and in great detail\, at this intriguing artwork and its fascinating story.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the James and Vivian Curtis Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Center for the Education of Women's Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund and African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CMENAS Colloquium Series.    Ambivalent Encounters: Migration\, Conversion\, and Historical Anxiety in Spain’s “Muslim City”
DESCRIPTION:This talk explores the way historical entanglements across the Mediterranean shape the politics of multiculturalism in modern Europe. I argue that historical anxieties about the implications of Islam for Spain’s European belonging produce ambivalence about the growing Muslim population today. Through ethnography of Muslim and non-Muslim historical memories of al-Andalus\, I trace how both Islamophobic and Islamophilic discourses shape the possibilities and limitations of Muslim inclusion. \n    \nMikaela Rogozen-Soltar received her PhD in Sociocultural Anthropology from the University of Michigan in 2010. She is now an Assistant Professor at the University of Nevada\, where her research and teaching focus on Islam\, migration\, and historical memory in Spain. Her first book\, “Spain Unmoored: Migration\, Conversion\, and the Politics of Islam” will be published by Indiana University Press in March.

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:\nVoters are often observed voting “against their interests”. We argue this is because voters don’t just ask themselves “which party best represents my policy preferences?” but also ask “how is someone like me supposed to vote?” Voters don’t just consider their personal preferences. They also consider the expectations of the salient groups with which they identify. These expectations are social norms\, shared beliefs about what constitutes appropriate behavior for members of the identity group\, and individuals’ choices reflect trade-offs between personal interests and adherence to norms. We illustrate this claim with survey experiments on representative samples of the US and British populations examining the group identity component of ideological self-placement and documenting norms that discourage voting against one's group and encourage support for the policies normatively associated with one’s group. We directly measure these norms and show that they influence real-stakes voting behavior when group identity is salient.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Athens Street Artist Cacao Rocks Paints a Mural in  Downtown Ann Arbor and  Talks About Street Art
DESCRIPTION:Moderated by Artemis Leontis\, Professor or Modern Greek \n\nStreet art has been booming in Athens\, Greece since 2010\, when austerity became the official economic policy of the country.  The color-filled work of Cacao Rocks fills the city\, and he has spearheaded large creative projects to fill abandoned factories and dull\, downgraded neighborhoods with color\, inviting artists from around the world to join him. Now in Ann Arbor\, come watch him paint (October 17-27) and talk to him (October 25) about his interventions and collaborations\, the street art scene in Athens\, its highs and its lows\, and the uses of street art as a powerful form of expression and communication. \n\nRaised in the port of Piraeus near Athens\, Greece\, Cacao Rocks began experimenting with graffiti while living Corfu when he was 12\, where he won a contest held by Greenpeace. A few years later\, he took a break from street art to study French Literature in the School of Philosophy at the University of Athens. Meanwhile he worked on the side to construct sculptures of polyurethane\, wool\, wood\, and found objects. In 2009 he took up video art and won the first prize in the National Film Festival Shoot It\, and was a awarded a scholarship in Focus school of art\, video\, and photography. He started painting all over the city. Besides his work on the street\, he has exhibited in galleries and museums in Mykonos and Athens\, the UK\, and Italy\, among other places. He has participated in many street art and graffiti festivals in Greece and abroad.\n\nCacao Rocks is one of three internationally known street artists visiting the University of Michigan this fall to paint new murals in downtown Ann Arbor as part of the Global Graffiti Project\, a partnership between the Institute for the Humanities\, the Modern Greek Program\, and the History of Art. The project seeks to engage the campus and greater community with international artists who offer a global perspective on street art.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Complex Analysis\, Dynamics and Geometry
DESCRIPTION:There are several examples in the literature of polynomial families that converge uniformly on compact sets to families of transcendental functions. In joint work with Jane Hawkins and Lorelei Koss\, we have a family of rational functions that converges to a transcendental family. This transcendental family contains parameters for which the Fatou set is empty. Since a rational function can have an empty Fatou set but a polynomial cannot\, this approximation by rational functions is\, in a sense\, more natural than the previously known approximations by polynomials.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Conversations on Europe. Italian Style: Fashion and Film
DESCRIPTION:Italian cinema launched Italian fashion to the world. This lecture is based on Professor Paulicelli’s latest book\, \"Italian Style: Fashion & Film from Early Cinema to the Digital Age\,\" which tells the story of this launch. The creation of an Italian style and fashion as they are perceived today\, especially by foreigners\, was a product of the post World War II years. Before then\, Parisian fashion had dominated Europe and the world\, and had helped shape a Parisian and French identity. The lecture explores how film contributed to the shaping of an Italian style and fashion that ran parallel to and at times took the lead in the creation of an Italian national identity. Fashion and film are powerful industries and media machines that construct powerful symbolic narratives and identities. It is hardly surprising\, then\, that Italian filmmakers have been fascinated by the transformative power of the language of clothing and fashion and the impact it has on style\, consumption\, and behavior. \n    \nEugenia Paulicelli is professor of Italian and comparative literature at Queens College and The Graduate Center of the City University of New York. She is the founder and director of fashion studies in the MA in liberal studies and PhD concentration at The Graduate Center. She has published several books as author and editor. In her writing she has explored the intersections between word and image in literature\, cinema\, fashion\, and the media\; the impact of technology in shaping these intersections\; and the history and role of women in relation to fashion\, the visual arts\, and writing (literature and journalism).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Special Seminar: Microbial life in the ecosystem context: molecular interactions at macro scales
DESCRIPTION:Soil microbial life regulates some of the largest fluxes of carbon and nitrogen on Earth. While widely recognized as critical for ecosystem functioning\, microbial activity and behavior is usually represented implicitly in conceptual and mathematical models of ecosystem process. New breakthroughs in molecular biology have revolutionized our ability to probe the life history strategies of soil microbial community members in ways that have the potential to transform our understanding of ecosystems and the Earth. I work to understand the allocation strategies of microbial decomposers in the context of ecosystem process\, as well as how these decomposers interact with mycorrhizal fungi- critical members of the plant microbiome. I place these frameworks in the context of optimization and game theory\, and test predictions at micro and macro scales. By doing so\, I hope to create a more predictive ecosystem ecology\, informed by the explicit representation of microbial life.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Short-Range Fermion Correlations: From neV to MeV
DESCRIPTION:The atomic nucleus is composed of two different kinds of fermions\, protons and neutrons. If the protons and neutrons did not interact\, the Pauli exclusion principle would force the majority fermions\, usually neutrons\, to higher average momentum. However\, recent high-energy proton and electron scattering experiments show that short-range interactions between the fermions form correlated\, high-momentum\, neutron-proton pairs\, known as Short-Range Correlations (SRC). Thus\, in neutron-rich nuclei the probability of finding a high-momentum (k>kFermi) proton (a minority Fermion) is greater than that of a neutron (a majority Fermion). \n\nIn this talk I will present the experimental studies of SRC in nuclei and review some of their wide ranging implications to topics in particle and astro physics (including the EMC effect\, neutrino scattering and neutron stars structure and properties). Given time\, I will also present a new theoretical description of atomic nuclei\, using an asymptotic formalism developed to describe ultra-cold atomic gasses. This first successful use of atomic theory in nuclei may lead the way to simulate certain aspects of nuclei and atomic traps.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Integrable Systems and Random Matrix Theory
DESCRIPTION:The relation between (standard) orthogonal polynomials and random matrix theory is\, by now\, somewhat classical. In rough terms\, we can express the partition function (and many other related quantities) of random matrix models in terms of orthogonal polynomials\, so that asymptotic questions in random matrix theory can be immediately translated to the asymptotic theory of orthogonal polynomials. A natural generalization of standard orthogonality on the real line is provided by non-Hermitian orthogonality\, where the standard bona fide inner product is replaced by orthogonality with respect to a non-Hermitian bilinear form\, typically expressed in terms of contour integrals in the complex plane. Although the direct connection to random matrix theory is lost\, the formal partition function associated to the model is meaningful to enumeration problems of graphs in compact Riemann surfaces of arbitrary genus. Hence the asymptotic theory of these non-Hermitian orthogonal polynomials is still of interest. However\, due to the analytic character of the integrands defining the orthogonality there is a lot of freedom in the choice of contour of integration for the orthogonality\, and consequently classical potential-theoretic techniques have to be suitably adapted and improved in combination with more recent Riemann-Hilbert methods. In the first part of our talk\, we will survey some old and not-so-old results on the asymptotic theory of these non-Hermitian orthogonal polynomials\, focusing on how their asymptotics can be extracted with the aid of the S-curves. This first part is partially based on joint work with Arno Kuijlaars (KU Leuven - Belgium). But this story is not yet over! Another generalization of standard or- thogonality is provided by the multiple orthogonality\, where the conditions of orthogonality are split into two (or more) measures. This generalization is again physically meaningful: many random matrix models (and also random path models) can be described in terms of such multiple orthogonal polynomials. However\, the asymptotic analysis of such polynomials has so far been restricted to situations involving symmetries in the model. So in the second part of our talk we plan to discuss some more recent developments towards removing such symmetry constraints. This is an ongoing project with Andrei Martinez-Finkelshtein (Universidad de Almeria - Spain)\, and as such the whole picture is not yet complete. At any rate we will talk about how the S-contour business can be generalized to this situation\, and how a salad of critical measures and quadratic differentials comes to the table.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Combinatorics Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Schubert polynomials are polynomials indexed by permutations with nonnegative integer coefficients\; they reflect Coxeter combinatorics of the permutation as well as geometric information about certain algebraic varieties. Any invertible n x n matrix can be written in the form LwU where w is a uniquely determined permutation matrix and L\, U are lower and upper triangular respectively. For a fixed w\, the closure of the set of matrices LwU is called a matrix Schubert variety\, and the corresponding Schubert polynomial is its torus-equivariant cohomology class. \n\nI will explain the approach of Knutson and Miller which relates this geometry to the combinatorics in a natural way\, via Gröbner bases and Stanley-Reisner rings of simplicial complexes. No knowledge of algebraic geometry will be assumed beyond the correspondence of ideals and varieties. Speaker(s): Brendan Pawlowski (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Presentation:Bonderman Info Session (Michigan Union)
DESCRIPTION:The Bonderman Fellowship offers graduating LSA seniors $20\,000 to travel the world. They must travel to 6 countries in 2 regions over the course of 8 months and are expected to immerse themselves in independent and enriching explorations. Bonderman Fellows engage with cultures\, people\, and areas of the world with which they are not familiar\, providing them the opportunity to develop entirely new perspectives.\n\nUM is one of only two schools—along with the University of Washington—to offer the Bonderman award. David Bonderman traveled internationally as a Sheldon Fellow after graduating from Harvard Law School in the 1960s\, and that experience shaped the rest of his life. He created the Bonderman Travel Fellowship in 1995 to provide students with a similar opportunity. Fellows make their own travel itineraries and\, because this is meant to be an individual experience\, cannot engage in formal study at a foreign university\, conduct formal research\, or travel with a guest or organized group.\n\nPizza and other refreshments will be served at all Bonderman info sessions.\n\nAfter this 30-minute info session in the Union\, advisors will be available for another 30 minutes to answer questions.

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.

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:Sinking City\, Between Civilization and the Deep Blue Sea
DESCRIPTION:Jakarta\, Indonesia has a serious problem with flooding. The city is literally sinking while also experiencing climate change related sea-level rise. Add to that the yearly heavy rainfall the city sees from the Southeast Asian monsoon and a population that has swelled beyond ten million due to rapid urbanization\, and it’s easy to see why Jakarta’s infrastructure is experiencing significant strain. Jakarta isn’t an isolated example of this perfect storm. It represents the future difficulty that coastal cities all over the world are likely to face.\n\nUnderstanding that lessons learned in Jakarta can have a global impact\, University of Michigan alumus Frank Sedlar set out to help with flood mitigation in Jakarta. Frank earned his master of science degree from Michigan Engineering and also studied the Indonesian language while at the university. Photojournalist and filmmaker Marcin Szczepanski and writer Ben Logan from Michigan Engineering chronicled Frank’s experience while in Jakarta working on modern solutions to Jakarta’s growing problem.\n\nPlease join us for an opening reception on Friday\, October 21 at 5 PM at the International Institute Gallery. Refreshments will be served.

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:John Cage: \"How to get Started\" sound installation
DESCRIPTION:Sound installation of John Cage's \"How to Get Started\,\" featuring a library of previous performances.\n\nAbout \"How to Get Started\": John Cage conceived HOW TO GET STARTED almost as an afterthought—a performance substituting for another that had been planned in 1989 for delivery at “Sound Design: An Invitational Conference on the Uses of Sound for Radio Drama\, Film\, Video\, Theater and Mu-sic” presented by Bay Area Radio Drama at Sprocket Systems\, Skywalker Ranch\, in Nicasio\, California.  In his introduction\, Cage talks about the difficulty of initiating the creative process\, while exploring the usefulness of improvisation\, a subject about which he had long been deeply ambivalent.  He proposes a col-laborative framework in which sound engineers capture and subsequently layer his extemporized monologue\, which consisted of ten brief commentaries on top-ics then of interest.  This amounted to an experiment having to do with thinking in public\, before a live audience.\n\nTwenty years after John Cage's first and only performance of HOW TO GET STARTED in Nicasio\, the John Cage Trust and Slought Foundation joined forces to create an interactive installation enabling the public to add yet another layer to the mix: your extemporizations on your ten topics of interest\, in your voice. Drawing upon Cage’s realization of HOW TO GET STARTED as a script in effect\, performers have been invited to participate in its further life\, both in public settings and in the more intimate\, specially designed recording studio at Slought.

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: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:Traces: Reconstructing the History of a Chokwe Mask
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition Traces focuses on one artwork from the Museum's African holdings: a Chokwe mask that was collected in 1905 near the Angolan city of Dundo by the German explorer Leo Frobenius. Its presence at UMMA today—almost 7\,500 miles away from the context in which it was originally created\, used\, and valued—is the result of a long and tumultuous journey\, spanning a hundred years\, three continents\, and numerous people whose lives are forever connected to the artifact that passed through their hands.\nTraces tells the stories of some of these individuals as it reconstructs the “biography” of the mask. Drawing on the Museum’s African art collection and complemented with national loans\, the exhibition is informed by research that exposes the mask’s many layers and restores some of its historical complexity. Visitors will be able to look closely\, and in great detail\, at this intriguing artwork and its fascinating story.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the James and Vivian Curtis Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Center for the Education of Women's Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund and African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Health\, History\, Demography & Development (H2D2)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThis study investigates how early-life conditions interact with subsequent human capital investments to influence future educational outcomes. To provide causal evidence\, we exploit two sources of exogenous variation: i) variation in early-life environments resulting from a child's exposure to extreme rainfall and drought shocks in early-life\; and ii)\, variation in subsequent investments resulting from the availability of conditional cash transfers (CCT) that promote investments in children's health and education. Using Colombian administrative data\, we combine a natural experiment with a regression discontinuity design using the CCT assignment rule. Results show that\, although the CCT has an overall positive impact on children's educational outcomes\, it does not have a differential effect on children exposed to early-life shocks\; however\, the overall effect of the program is large enough to mitigate the negative impact of the weather shock. These findings have important policy implications as they provide evidence of the role of social policies in closing gaps generated by early-life trauma.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | Building on Dreams: Chinese Construction\, Workers\, Rural-Urban Development\, and the Making of Masculinity
DESCRIPTION:Over the past three decades in China\, the spectacular rise of modern cities has been made possible by the strength and labor of a vast workforce from the countryside. Typically\, migrant construction workers spend eleven months each year in cities\, returning to their villages only during New Year to reunite with their families. The mostly-male construction workforce makes up the most visible segment of the so-called \"floating population\,\" hundreds of millions who are economically and legally suspended between urban employment and rural identities. Questions of gender and migrant experience in China have almost always focused on women’s work in factories. Construction work provides a parallel space to understand sex-segregated labor through the experiences of rural migrant men. The traditional privileges and ideologies of masculinity operate as resources that intensify the exploitation of rural male workers\, motivating them to persist in enterprises that entail their own exclusion. \n    \nWilliam Thomson is a socio-cultural anthropologist visiting UM this year as a postdoctoral fellow at the Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies. His research investigates relations of design and labor through China’s contemporary building sites where projects of global capital\, labor migration\, and architecture converge. His current book project expands on two years of intensive fieldwork with rural construction workers on sites in the city of Xi’an\, in local design studios\, and through extended visits to workers’ home villages in the Qinling mountains of Shaanxi Province. Before turning to anthropology\, Thomson worked for seven years in journalism and media\, including five years at WBUR Public Radio in Boston.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Michael McCulloch Lecture\,  \"Reform and Risk: Industrialists’ Housing in Model T Era Detroit\"
DESCRIPTION:Two neighborhoods were drawn at Detroit’s southwest border in the late 1910s. One\, a speculative grid of detached houses\, was built\, while the other\, a little-known\, Garden City inspired project with curving streets and community centers\, remained stranded on its designer’s desk. Industrial employers had a hand in the design\, and the fate\, of each. Examining the housing policies of the Ford Motor Company and other Detroit manufacturers following WWI\, this presentation will reframe the ultimate dominance of the commercial grid. More than a foregone conclusion\, or the only option available\, Detroit’s seemingly-endless rows of workforce housing were a medium through which industrialists navigated conflicting ideals: progressive reform and risk management.  \n\nMichael McCulloch is assistant professor\, Kendall College of Art and Design\, Ferris State University and a former fellow at the Institute for the Humanities.

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:Economic History
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nWhen open economies fix their exchange rate\, they constrain monetary policy. The trilemma implies that arbitrage\, not the central bank\, determines how interest rates fluctuate. The annals of international finance thus provide quasi-natural experiments with which to measure how macroeconomic outcomes respond to policy rates. Using historical data since 1870\, we estimate the local average treatment effect (LATE) of monetary policy interventions with a trilemma instrument and discuss the connection with the population ATE. Using local projection instrumental variable methods we find that the effects of monetary policy are much larger than previously estimated\, and that these effects are state-dependent. Using a novel control function approach we allow for possible spillovers via other channels and our results prove to be robust. Monetary policy has weak effects when output is depressed and when the economy has “lowflation.” Our findings have profound implications for monetary economics.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Metallic Quantum Critical Points with Finite BCS Couplings
DESCRIPTION:The problem of superconductivity near quantum critical points (QCPs) remains a central and poorly understood topic of modern condensed matter physics. In such systems\, there is a competition between the enhanced pairing tendency due to the presence of long-range attractive interactions near criticality\, and the suppression of superconductivity due to the destruction of Landau quasiparticles. I will describe some recent work that addresses these competing effects in the context of a solvable model of a metallic quantum critical point. I will show that the two effects - namely the enhanced pairing and the destruction of Landau quasiparticles - can offset one another\, resulting in stable \"naked\" quantum critical points without superconductivity. However\, the resulting quantum critical metal exhibits strong superconducting fluctuations on all length scales.\n\nReference: S.R.\, Gonzalo Torroba\, and Huajia Wang\, arXiv1507.06652\, PRB(2015).

Despite regulations in 1978 that should have opened up roughly 25% of skilled trades jobs to women\, women have held only 2.5% of construction jobs since 1981. Come see and discuss how art can be used to renew public and political interest in a topic of economic importance to women and the nation.\n\nCosponsored by The Institute for Research on Women & Gender\, the Women in Science & Engineering Program\, the Women's Studies department in LS&A\, and CEW.\n\nRegister here:  http://www.cew.umich.edu/events/equality-women-construction-industry-using-art-create-interest-stalled-issue/20160921

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Lecture and Discussion with Iranian Artist Mehdi Ghadyanloo
DESCRIPTION:After studying painting and animation in Tehran\, Iranian artist Mehdi Ghadyanloo (b. 1981) answered an open call from the Municipality of Tehran's Beautification Bureau to promote public art in the capital city. Between 2004 and 2011\, he went on to paint over 100 gigantic murals throughout Tehran\, depicting scenes of people and places in amusing compositions and illusionistic settings evocative of happy and at times surreal conditions. During this time he quickly became one of Iran's most famous public artists. More recently\, Ghadyanloo's practice has developed from murals to encompass works on canvas\, a wide range of printmaking techniques\, and sculpture. His newest compositions reveal a darker side to his practice\, in which landscapes painted in a somber\, muted palette are inhabited by floating machine-like and geometric forms that cast a menacing shadow on the individuals depicted below. Through such depictions\, he encapsulates a foreboding and uneasy sense of suspension for those living in Iran today. From his murals to his canvas paintings\, Ghadyanloo thus lures us into heterotopic spaces that invite us to imagine new realities that are both hopeful and dire.\n\nAdditional sponsorship for this event provided by the Charles L. Freer Research and Publications Fund\, History of Art\; Center for Middle Eastern and North African Studies (CMENAS)\; and the International Institute.

SUMMARY:Other:Marine Natural Products Synthesis: A Platform for Chemical and Biological Discovery
DESCRIPTION:Marine natural products often have complex structures and potent biological activities\; however\, little is understood regarding how their molecular structure correlates with function or what biological targets or pathways are involved.  Through rapid and efficient chemical syntheses of bioactive marine natural products we are able prepare ample quantities of material to explore both structure-activity relationships as well as target identification studies.  Specifically\, the monanchocidin\, synoxazolidinone and lipoxazolidinone families of natural products will be discussed leading to novel synthetic derivatives that serve as lead structures for infectious disease and cancer chemical probe and therapeutic development.\n\nJoshua Pierce (North Carolina State University)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Colloquium Series
DESCRIPTION:I will survey some applications of Donaldson's technique of quantitative transversality of \"approximately holomorphic\" functions in symplectic geometry.  I will explain the basic terms and present the main ideas of the technique.  Donaldson used it to show that the Poincare dual of any sufficiently large multiple of an integral symplectic form is represented by a symplectic submanifold.  Another application is joint work with E. Giroux in which we prove the existence of Lefschetz fibrations on certain symplectic manifolds.

SUMMARY:Other:They're Taking the Pizza to Isengard!
DESCRIPTION:The following conversation was overheard outside of an organic chemistry classroom just after the graded midterms had been returned:“I know. It's all wrong. By rights we shouldn't even be here. But we are. It's like in the great stories\, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger\, they were. And sometimes you didn't want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end\, it's only a passing thing\, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines\, it'll shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you\, that meant something\, even if you were too small to understand why. And I think\, Mr. Frodo\, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turnin' back\, only they didn't. They kept going. Because they were holdin' on to something.”“What are we holdin' onto\, Sam?”“That there's some good in this world\, Mr. Frodo\, and it's worth fightingfor.”The individuals involved were later seen journeying towards Angell Hall\, eagerly recounting some rumor of free pizza… Come gather in one of the Angel Hall auditoriums this Tuesday at 6pm and partake in pizza without price as we discuss the things onto which we hold\, and even the very nature of hope itself! To the end that accommodations for your company may be sufficiently arranged\, please RSVP with a meme involving the Lord of the Rings to confirm your attendance.The day may come when the appetite of men fails\, but it is not this day! This day\, we eat! Unabashedly yours\, Rob KoehnTreasurer of the Dead Pizza Societyhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k6C8SX0mWP0

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Mountains May Depart 山河故人
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\nInternationally acclaimed\, Mountains May Depart is Jia Zhangke’s eighth feature film. This film was a nominee for the Palme d’Or at the 2015 at the 2015 Cannes Film Festival.  \n\nSynopsis: At once an intimate drama and a decades-spanning epic that leaps from the recent past to the present to the speculative near-future\, Jia Zhangke’s new film is an intensely moving study of how China’s economic boom and the culture of materialism it has spawned has affected the bonds of family\, tradition\, and love.

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:Sinking City\, Between Civilization and the Deep Blue Sea
DESCRIPTION:Jakarta\, Indonesia has a serious problem with flooding. The city is literally sinking while also experiencing climate change related sea-level rise. Add to that the yearly heavy rainfall the city sees from the Southeast Asian monsoon and a population that has swelled beyond ten million due to rapid urbanization\, and it’s easy to see why Jakarta’s infrastructure is experiencing significant strain. Jakarta isn’t an isolated example of this perfect storm. It represents the future difficulty that coastal cities all over the world are likely to face.\n\nUnderstanding that lessons learned in Jakarta can have a global impact\, University of Michigan alumus Frank Sedlar set out to help with flood mitigation in Jakarta. Frank earned his master of science degree from Michigan Engineering and also studied the Indonesian language while at the university. Photojournalist and filmmaker Marcin Szczepanski and writer Ben Logan from Michigan Engineering chronicled Frank’s experience while in Jakarta working on modern solutions to Jakarta’s growing problem.\n\nPlease join us for an opening reception on Friday\, October 21 at 5 PM at the International Institute Gallery. Refreshments will be served.

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:John Cage: \"How to get Started\" sound installation
DESCRIPTION:Sound installation of John Cage's \"How to Get Started\,\" featuring a library of previous performances.\n\nAbout \"How to Get Started\": John Cage conceived HOW TO GET STARTED almost as an afterthought—a performance substituting for another that had been planned in 1989 for delivery at “Sound Design: An Invitational Conference on the Uses of Sound for Radio Drama\, Film\, Video\, Theater and Mu-sic” presented by Bay Area Radio Drama at Sprocket Systems\, Skywalker Ranch\, in Nicasio\, California.  In his introduction\, Cage talks about the difficulty of initiating the creative process\, while exploring the usefulness of improvisation\, a subject about which he had long been deeply ambivalent.  He proposes a col-laborative framework in which sound engineers capture and subsequently layer his extemporized monologue\, which consisted of ten brief commentaries on top-ics then of interest.  This amounted to an experiment having to do with thinking in public\, before a live audience.\n\nTwenty years after John Cage's first and only performance of HOW TO GET STARTED in Nicasio\, the John Cage Trust and Slought Foundation joined forces to create an interactive installation enabling the public to add yet another layer to the mix: your extemporizations on your ten topics of interest\, in your voice. Drawing upon Cage’s realization of HOW TO GET STARTED as a script in effect\, performers have been invited to participate in its further life\, both in public settings and in the more intimate\, specially designed recording studio at Slought.

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: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:Traces: Reconstructing the History of a Chokwe Mask
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition Traces focuses on one artwork from the Museum's African holdings: a Chokwe mask that was collected in 1905 near the Angolan city of Dundo by the German explorer Leo Frobenius. Its presence at UMMA today—almost 7\,500 miles away from the context in which it was originally created\, used\, and valued—is the result of a long and tumultuous journey\, spanning a hundred years\, three continents\, and numerous people whose lives are forever connected to the artifact that passed through their hands.\nTraces tells the stories of some of these individuals as it reconstructs the “biography” of the mask. Drawing on the Museum’s African art collection and complemented with national loans\, the exhibition is informed by research that exposes the mask’s many layers and restores some of its historical complexity. Visitors will be able to look closely\, and in great detail\, at this intriguing artwork and its fascinating story.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the James and Vivian Curtis Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Center for the Education of Women's Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund and African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Brown Bag Seminar | Lighting Up Collider Searches for Electroweak States
DESCRIPTION:Despite appearing in many extensions of the Standard Model\, uncolored electroweak particles face limited collider search prospects. For nearly degenerate electroweak multiplets where the lightest state is electrically neutral\, searches typically rely on pair production of the new states in association with visible radiation\, e.g. the mono-X final state. We show that for such new particles\, considering final state photon radiation can provide increased sensitivity. The additional kinematical information provided by including final state electromagnetic radiation more than compensates for the reduced statistics.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Medieval Lunch. Defining Faith for Ordinary Christians in the Fifth-Century Mediterranean
DESCRIPTION:My dissertation asks the question of how bishops and priests taught ordinary Christians about their faith in the fifth and sixth century\, when they no longer had the opportunity to educate adult converts to Christianity through catechesis.  In order to ask this question\, however\, I must first define the terms 'ordinary' and 'faith.'  In this talk\, I will explore what these terms meant for the preachers I study and in the larger context of the late antique Mediterranean.  I will show that there was a specific group of 'ordinary' people for whom preachers attempted to make their teachings on Christianity especially clear\, and that there was a generally agreed-upon definition of 'faith' (fides\, pistis) in late antiquity that individual preachers nevertheless manipulated in order to more effectively teach their specific congregations

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:Laura Kuhn Lecture\, \"Improvisation and the Experimental Music Tradition\"
DESCRIPTION:In connection with the performance and installation of John Cage's \"How to Get Started\,\" Laura Kuhn\, executive director of the John Cage trust\, talks about the experimental music movement in America (in the latter half of the 20th century)\, and where and how improvisational tactics\, both in composition and performance\, might fit. \n\nAbout \"How to Get Started\": John Cage conceived HOW TO GET STARTED almost as an afterthought—a performance substituting for another that had been planned in 1989 for delivery at “Sound Design: An Invitational Conference on the Uses of Sound for Radio Drama\, Film\, Video\, Theater and Mu-sic” presented by Bay Area Radio Drama at Sprocket Systems\, Skywalker Ranch\, in Nicasio\, California. In his introduction\, Cage talks about the difficulty of initiating the creative process\, while exploring the usefulness of improvisation\, a subject about which he had long been deeply ambivalent. He proposes a col-laborative framework in which sound engineers capture and subsequently layer his extemporized monologue\, which consisted of ten brief commentaries on top-ics then of interest. This amounted to an experiment having to do with thinking in public\, before a live audience.\n\nTwenty years after John Cage's first and only performance of HOW TO GET STARTED in Nicasio\, the John Cage Trust and Slought Foundation joined forces to create an interactive installation enabling the public to add yet another layer to the mix: your extemporizations on your ten topics of interest\, in your voice. Drawing upon Cage’s realization of HOW TO GET STARTED as a script in effect\, performers have been invited to participate in its further life\, both in public settings and in the more intimate\, specially designed recording studio at Slought.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | Planets Around Nearby Stars
DESCRIPTION:Modern science began with Copernicus speculating that the Earth is a planet and that all the planets orbit the Sun. Bruno followed up by speculating that the Sun is a star\, that other stars have planets\, and other planets are inhabited by life. For this and other heresies\, Bruno was burned at the stake in a public square in Rome in 1600. Astronomy and extrasolar planets were a really hot field at the time. \n\nOver the past 20 years more than a thousand extrasolar planets have been found\, first from ground-based precision Doppler and photometric transit surveys\, and more recently by the Kepler space mission. We have concentrated on building precise Doppler systems to survey the nearest stars. Our systems at Lick\, Keck\, AAT\, and Magellan have found hundreds of planets\, including 5 of the first six planets\, the first saturn-mass planet\, the first neptune-mass planet\, the first terrestrial mass planet\, and the first multiple planet system. \n\nIn August we announced the discovery of a potentially habitable around the nearest star\, Proxima Centauri\, based on archival data from the ESO HARPS and UVES spectrometers reanalyzed with improved packages that we have written\, and with a dedicated 2 month campaign of high cadence observing on HARPS. This discovery highlights the latest statistical evidence from Kepler and ground-based Doppler surveys that ~30% of stars have potentially habitable planets.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Financial/Actuarial Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:We consider a stylized core-periphery financial network in which links lead to the creation of projects in the outside economy  but make banks prone to contagion risk. The controller seeks to maximize\, under budget constraints\, the value of the financial system defined as the total amount of projects. Under partial information on interbank links\, revealed  in conjunction with the spread of contagion\, the optimal control problem is shown to become a Markov decision problem. We find the optimal intervention policy using dynamic programming.\n\nOur numerical results show that the value of the system depends on the connectivity in a non-monotonous way:  it first increases with connectivity  and then decreases with connectivity.\nThe maximum value attained depends critically on the budget of the controller and the availability of an adapted intervention strategy. Moreover\, we show that  for highly connected systems\,  it is optimal to increase the rate of intervention in the peripheral banks rather than in core banks.\n\njoint with H. Amini and A.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LACS Lecture. Eating NAFTA: Mexico in a Post-Migration and Post-Labor Era
DESCRIPTION:Can we speak of Mexico today as having entered a post-migration and post-labor era? What is the place of average Mexicans in the post-NAFTA economy? Is the role imagined for them one only of consumption? If so\, what are the health consequences of this? This presentation examines how trade policy and migration have altered one of the most basic elements of life: sustenance. It tells the binational story of the interdependent food system between Mexico and the U.S. and the consequences for people’s everyday lives and health of those interconnections. \n\nHow and what people eat in Mexico and the United States has transformed in the last two decades\, with massive consequences for public health. This talk is based on Gálvez's book\, a study that examines the connections between food policy and migration\, and their connection to eating practices and health in Mexican communities on both sides of the border. The North American Free Trade Agreement has been closely analyzed at the level of policy and bilateral politics\, including the ways that it has impacted the production and circulation of goods and services in North America. But very little has been done to analyze the micro-level changes to every day life experienced by people in the region. While trade policy has liberalized the flow of goods and currency\, it has been accompanied by greater militarization of borders\, and an illegalization of the circulation of workers. This study examines the current intersection of trade policy\, globalization\, and social programs in Mexico I argue that the rise of diet-related illness in Mexico is a logical outgrowth of trade and development policies and arrangements that favor food security over subsistence agriculture\, “development” over sustainability\, market participation over social welfare\, and ideologies of self-care over public health care.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Perpetual Care: Exploring doctor-patient relationships\, medical experiences\, encounters\, and adjustments of long-term chronic illness
DESCRIPTION:CEW and the Institute for Research on Women & Gender at University of Michigan invite you to join us for a Poetry Reading by Susan Eisenberg on Wednesday\, October 26th from 4:00-5:00 p.m.\, with a reception immediately following. \n\nCEW’s Visiting Social Activist Susan Eisenberg will share selected poems and photographs from her new book Perpetual Care. Eisenberg helps us think differently about the embodied relations of health and affliction\, particularly in contrast to the social construction of women's health and well-being. Her work may hold special resonance for women of color\, who are more likely to live with chronic diseases such as lupus\, which affects Eisenberg. \n\nFrom the Back Cover: Incisive\, lively\, witty\, Perpetual Care brilliantly defies its subject matter. Using an impressive range of forms\, styles\, and metaphors\, Susan Eisenberg draws us deeply into the emotional complexities of a “flock of illnesses.” Whatever your background—as patient and/or provider—you will find this book difficult to put down. The poet’s striking photographs add resonance to both the title and these surprisingly hopeful poems. - Martha Collins\, poet\, Blue Front\n\nRegister here:  http://www.cew.umich.edu/events/poetry-reading-susan-eisenberg/20161017

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RTG Working Seminar on Geometry\, Dynamics and Topology
DESCRIPTION:The deformation space of convex real projective structures on a compact surface S is homeomorphic to a cell of dimension given by 8 times the Euler characteristic of S\; there are coordinates for the space\, described by Goldman\, which are analogous to the Fenchel-Nielsen coordinates for Teichmüller space. I will describe these coordinates\, and use them to produce concrete examples of convex projective structures on surfaces.\n Speaker(s): Feng Zhu (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Integration Paradox: Second-Generation Muslim in the United States
DESCRIPTION:Doing research on Muslims in the United States faces the real challenges that the US Census does not collect data on religion\, while the Muslim sample in surveys\, such as the General Social\nSurvey\, is often too small for meaningful analysis. Thus\, there is little information available on the basic demographic characteristics of the children of Muslim immigrants. In his research with Eric Ketchman. Professor Mehdi Bozorgmehr shows how they overcame these obstacles. He also discusses the nature of integration or assimilation of these new Americans who are the children of Muslim immigrants.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Algebraic Geometry
DESCRIPTION:In the late 60's\, Hochster formulated the direct summand conjecture (DSC) in commutative algebra: a regular commutative ring splits off from any finite extension (as a module). A few years later\, Hochster himself proved the DSC when the ring contains a field\; these ideas had a significant impact on the ensuing development of tight closure and F-singularity theory. \n\nIn the mixed characteristic setting\, the case of dimension  Speaker(s): Bhargav Bhatt (UM)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Analysis/Probability
DESCRIPTION:n this talk\, we introduce and study some basic questions regarding the phase diagram for general mixed p-spin glasses. We focus on the analysis of the Parisi functional\, a non-local\, convex functional whose value is given by the solution of a certain Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman PDE. We present an exact characterization of minimizers\, and use this to study the phase diagram in the temperature-external field plane. In particular\, we present some recent progress on the Replica Symmetric-to-Replica Symmetry Breaking phase transition: we prove that a natural generalization of the de Almeida-Thouless line does give the RS-RSB phase transition in the temperature-external field plane less a compact set. Time permitting\, we will discuss some related work on the complexity of the Replica Symmetry Breaking phase for spherical mixed p-spin glasses. These are joint works with Aukosh Jagannath (Univ. of Toronto). Speaker(s): Ian Tobasco (UM)

SUMMARY:Other:Author's Forum Presents \"Contemporary Korean Art: Tansaekhwa and the Urgency of Method\,\" A Conversation with Joan Kee and David Chung
DESCRIPTION:Joan Kee will read from her book\, followed by a conversation with David Chung.\n\nFrom the publisher: \"A crucial artistic movement of twentieth-century Korea\, Tansaekhwa (monochromatic painting) also became one of its most famous and successful. In this full-color\, richly illustrated account—the first of its kind in English—Joan Kee provides a fresh interpretation of the movement’s emergence and meaning that sheds new light on the history of abstraction\, twentieth-century Asian art\, and contemporary art in general. \n\nThis book provides a comprehensive overview of the most controversial and influential artistic movement in contemporary Korean art. With detailed formal analysis on the important artworks and locating them within the broader historical and intellectual framework\, Joan Kee vividly portrays how Korean artists responded to the international art world and positioned Tansaekhwa as an alternative to Euro-American art. Contemporary Korean Art makes essential reading for anyone interested in the non-Western artists’ negotiations to global art in the twentieth century.\"\n\nJoan Kee is associate professor of art history at the University of Michigan.\n\nDavid Chung is an artist and professor in the Stamps School of Art & Design.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Film Screening: Never a Bystander (30 min\, 2014)
DESCRIPTION:Never a Bystander tells the story of Holocaust survivor Irene Butter’s extraordinary work with school children. Ms. Butter has spent nearly 30 years inspiring countless children to find the courage to take compassionate action and transcend obstacles. The film depicts Ms. Butter’s poignant connection to Anne Frank\, her own childhood experiences in two concentration camps\, and her choice to adopt an empowered view of her history\, leading to a life of openheartedness\, joy\, and activism.\nThe screening will be followed by a talk back with film director\, Evelyn Neuhaus\, and Irene Butter.\n\nIrene Butter was born in Berlin\, Germany and grew up Jewish in Nazi-occupied Europe. A survivor of two concentration camps\, she came to the U.S. in 1945. After graduating from Queens College in New York\, she earned a PhD in economics from Duke University and taught at the University of Michigan for over 35 years. Since 1987\, she has been visiting schools to teach students about the Holocaust and the lessons she learned during those traumatic years. She co-founded the Wallenberg lecture series honoring global change- makers and the Arab-Jewish women’s dialog group\, Zeitouna. Butter resides with her husband in Ann Arbor.\n\nEvelyn Neuhaus is a first-time filmmaker. She knew Irene Butter\, the subject of Never a Bystander\, for decades before learning that Butter was a Holocaust survivor and hearing her story. In 2007\, Neuhaus was an assistant producer for Refusing to Be Enemies: The Zeitouna Story\, about an Arab-Jewish women’s dialogue group Butter co-founded. She holds an MPH and an MBA from the University of Michigan and resides in Ann Arbor\, Michigan. She is currently exploring topics for her next film.

SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:MSAIL #3: Active Learning and Global Bayesian Optimization
DESCRIPTION:Dear Friends\,  Our next MSAIL meeting (#3) will focus on Active Learning andGlobal Bayesian Optimization --- check out these slides for asneak peek! We'll meet at:    3427 EECS\, Wednesday\, 2016-10-26\, 18:00-19:00. The problem is that our loss function is a very complicated functionof our parameters. It's too complicated to compute except by samplingat a few points in parameter-space. Last time\, we discussed a famousheuristic applicable when at each sample we have gradient information.This time\, we'll discuss a learning framework applicable even when welack gradients. The basic idea is: estimate the loss function by a simpler one by doingregression on known (parameter\, loss) pairs. The simpler function willguide queries for further parameters to try. We are led to active learning\,wherein the algorithm asks \"clarifying questions\" by requesting moretraining data. Automatically Learning\,MSAIL

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:DISC Distinguished Lecture. Gender and Sexuality in the Islamic Culture
DESCRIPTION:Shirin Ebadi will argue that despite the cultural\, social\, political\, and governmental differences in Islamic countries\, they all have one thing in common: patriarchal culture. This male-dominated culture is far stronger in Islamic societies than in the Western world and poses serious challenges to the perception of gender and its related laws and regulations.\n\nShe will share her view that in this culture women are considered to be second-class citizens. They are humiliated on the one hand\, but seen as a symbol of family honor on the other. Issues such as honor killings and FGM should be analyzed considering that they happen due to the importance of the family\, which is dependent on women.\n\nWith regards to sexual orientation\, she will also discuss how the patriarchal culture rejects homosexuality. In a same sex relationship for men\, there is a difference between the passive and active partners. Namely\, the passive person would face a harsher reaction from society because he dishonors his masculinity. This is an example of how patriarchal culture justifies itself by any means possible and interprets the holy book in a way that justifies discriminatory laws. \n\nShirin Ebadi is an Iranian lawyer\, former judge\, and human rights activist. On October 10\, 2003\, she was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for her significant and pioneering efforts for democracy and human rights - especially women's\, children's\, and refugee rights. She was the first Iranian to ever receive the prize. Ebadi became Iran's first female judge when she was just 23 years old. She also became the first Iranian and first Muslim woman to be awarded the Nobel peace prize. Despite initially supporting the Iranian revolution like many Iranians\, Ebadi soon became its scourge. Although described as \"the worst nightmare of Iran's hardline clerics\,\" her fight for human rights\, particularly those for women\, is not anti-religion. \"I am against patriarchy\, not Islam\,\" she says. \n    \nDemoted to a secretary in her own court by the regime\, which considered women unsuitable to be judges\, she set up her own pro-bono law practice to focus on injustices in the legal system\, acting for political dissidents and on child-abuse cases. Despite being put on a death list by the regime\, Dr. Ebadi became the country's most high-profile human rights activist\, founding the Human Rights Defenders Centre and helping to found the One Million Signatures Campaign. This grassroots campaign collected 1 million signatures from women in support of changing discriminatory laws. The campaign has won numerous international prizes (including the 2009 Reach All Women in War Anna Politkovskaya Award)\, but its members have also been harassed and even jailed. \n    \nShirin Ebadi lived in Tehran\, but she has been in exile in the UK since June 2009 due to the increase in persecution of Iranian citizens who are critical of the current regime. In 2004\, she was listed by Forbes Magazine as one of the \"100 most powerful women in the world.\" She is also included in a published list of the \"100 most influential women of all time.\"\n\nEbadi will be introduced by Bridgette Carr\, clinical professor of law at the University of Michigan.\n\nAbstracts reflect the views of our speakers\, which may be varied. We expect a lively discussion.\n\nPart of the series Contemporary Islamic Identities. Visit digitalislam.umich.edu for full series details.

SUMMARY:Performance:Yonder Mountain String Band
DESCRIPTION:Yonder Mountain String Band has always played music by its own set of rules. With their traditional lineup of instruments\, the band may look like a traditional bluegrass band at first glance\, but they’ve created music that transcends any genre. The Colorado-based quintet has crisscrossed the country over the past 17 years playing music reflecting varied influences from the bluegrass of Del McCoury\, Jimmy Martin\, Bill Monroe\, and the Osborne Brothers as well as the punk rock of Bad Religion\, Black Flag\, and the Dead Kennedys. Somewhere in between these two tent poles are early 20th-century classical composers and alternative rock bands like Grandaddy and Postal Service. It’s all funneled through the band’s unique chemistry\, honed since the members first met at an informal club performance in 1998. Fans are drawn to Yonder’s anything-goes attitude\, its humor and passion about music\, and its ability to stretch out live. Yonder Mountain's music is bluegrass for the whole world\, acoustic tunes filled with dazzling chops\, and it’s fun to boot. Maybe that's why this band has outlasted almost all of the others in the first wave of bluegrass-oriented jam bands. Minnesota roots/bluegrass band Pert Near Sandstone is special guest!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Austria: Gelatin Silver Prints

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: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:Sinking City\, Between Civilization and the Deep Blue Sea
DESCRIPTION:Jakarta\, Indonesia has a serious problem with flooding. The city is literally sinking while also experiencing climate change related sea-level rise. Add to that the yearly heavy rainfall the city sees from the Southeast Asian monsoon and a population that has swelled beyond ten million due to rapid urbanization\, and it’s easy to see why Jakarta’s infrastructure is experiencing significant strain. Jakarta isn’t an isolated example of this perfect storm. It represents the future difficulty that coastal cities all over the world are likely to face.\n\nUnderstanding that lessons learned in Jakarta can have a global impact\, University of Michigan alumus Frank Sedlar set out to help with flood mitigation in Jakarta. Frank earned his master of science degree from Michigan Engineering and also studied the Indonesian language while at the university. Photojournalist and filmmaker Marcin Szczepanski and writer Ben Logan from Michigan Engineering chronicled Frank’s experience while in Jakarta working on modern solutions to Jakarta’s growing problem.\n\nPlease join us for an opening reception on Friday\, October 21 at 5 PM at the International Institute Gallery. Refreshments will be served.

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:Conference / Symposium:Big Data in Finance
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday and Friday\, October 27-28\, 2016\, the Office of Financial Research and the University of Michigan’s Center on Finance\, Law and Policy will host a joint conference\, “Big Data in Finance” in Ann Arbor\, Michigan. The conference will bring together a wide range of scholars\, regulators\, policymakers\, and practitioners to explore how big data can be used to enhance financial stability and address other challenges in financial markets.\n\nThe Big Data in finance conference\, which is held in collaboration with the Michigan Institute for Data Science (MIDAS)\, the Michigan Ross School of Business\, the Michigan College of Engineering and Michigan Law School will explore ways to make financial data more accessible and more secure\, as well as more useful to regulators\, market participants\, and the public. As new data sets are created\, opportunities emerge. Vast quantities of financial data may help identify emerging risks\, enable market participants and regulators to see and better understand financial networks and interconnections\, enhance financial stability\, bolster consumer protection\, and increase access to the underserved. Financial data can also increase transparency in the financial system for market participants\, regulators and the public.\n\nHowever\, these vast data sets can raise significant questions about protecting security and privacy\; ensuring data quality\; protecting against discrimination or privacy intrusions\; managing and analyzing enormous data sets\; synthesizing and presenting data in usable form\; and sharing data among regulators\, researchers\, and the public. Moreover\, any conflicts among regulators and financial firms over such data could create opportunities for regulatory arbitrage and gaps in understanding risk in the financial system.\n\nHow should all of that data be aggregated\, protected\, analyzed\, and shared? We have recruited experts domestically and internationally who have considered these questions and published research on these topics\, or who have dealt with these issues in their professional roles and can ground the policy initiatives with real-world experience.\n\nPlease register at http://financelawpolicy.umich.edu/big-data-conference/.\n\n*Please note: registration to the Big Data conference is free and open to the public\, but space is limited. Registration will close when we reach capacity.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:John Cage: \"How to get Started\" sound installation
DESCRIPTION:Sound installation of John Cage's \"How to Get Started\,\" featuring a library of previous performances.\n\nAbout \"How to Get Started\": John Cage conceived HOW TO GET STARTED almost as an afterthought—a performance substituting for another that had been planned in 1989 for delivery at “Sound Design: An Invitational Conference on the Uses of Sound for Radio Drama\, Film\, Video\, Theater and Mu-sic” presented by Bay Area Radio Drama at Sprocket Systems\, Skywalker Ranch\, in Nicasio\, California.  In his introduction\, Cage talks about the difficulty of initiating the creative process\, while exploring the usefulness of improvisation\, a subject about which he had long been deeply ambivalent.  He proposes a col-laborative framework in which sound engineers capture and subsequently layer his extemporized monologue\, which consisted of ten brief commentaries on top-ics then of interest.  This amounted to an experiment having to do with thinking in public\, before a live audience.\n\nTwenty years after John Cage's first and only performance of HOW TO GET STARTED in Nicasio\, the John Cage Trust and Slought Foundation joined forces to create an interactive installation enabling the public to add yet another layer to the mix: your extemporizations on your ten topics of interest\, in your voice. Drawing upon Cage’s realization of HOW TO GET STARTED as a script in effect\, performers have been invited to participate in its further life\, both in public settings and in the more intimate\, specially designed recording studio at Slought.

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:Conference / Symposium:TieCon Midwest 2016
DESCRIPTION:Michigan\, for more than 100 years has been the center of the automotive industry. This industry is changing as automobiles become equipped with devices and systems that are autonomous or connect you to the world\; but Michigan remains at the forefront of this disruptive technology evolution\, doing what we do best\, letting our entrepreneurs and innovators lead the way for the nation and the world to follow!\n\nMichigan is taking Mobility and Connectivity to the next level! We’re exploring how connected technology is revolutionizing healthcare delivery and consumer expectations\; we are looking at connected technologies from a global perspective \, which industries will they impact\, what’s the effect on our economy\, are we training our children for the right jobs\, how will they change our lives now and in the future?\n\nStudies show that every connected technology-related position created in the State of Michigan also creates 6.54 additional non-connected-related jobs (MEDC/MTAM)\, and that as of 2015 the average compensation for a connected technology-related position in Michigan is over $89\,000 annually – a 48% increase since the last study in 2011 (MEDC/MTAM). Given these statistics\, it was obvious to TiE Detroit that the time is right to make Connected World – Connected Technologies\, with special focus on Mobility\, HealthCare and Global Connectivity\, the focus for TiECon Midwest 2016.

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: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:Traces: Reconstructing the History of a Chokwe Mask
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition Traces focuses on one artwork from the Museum's African holdings: a Chokwe mask that was collected in 1905 near the Angolan city of Dundo by the German explorer Leo Frobenius. Its presence at UMMA today—almost 7\,500 miles away from the context in which it was originally created\, used\, and valued—is the result of a long and tumultuous journey\, spanning a hundred years\, three continents\, and numerous people whose lives are forever connected to the artifact that passed through their hands.\nTraces tells the stories of some of these individuals as it reconstructs the “biography” of the mask. Drawing on the Museum’s African art collection and complemented with national loans\, the exhibition is informed by research that exposes the mask’s many layers and restores some of its historical complexity. Visitors will be able to look closely\, and in great detail\, at this intriguing artwork and its fascinating story.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the James and Vivian Curtis Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Center for the Education of Women's Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund and African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Analyzing Transportation Equity Impacts using Activity-based Travel Demand Models
DESCRIPTION:Activity-based travel demand models can be useful tools for understanding the individual level equity impacts of regional transportation plans\, because of their ability to generate transportation measures at disaggregate (individual and household) levels. There are numerous population and environmental (transportation and land-use) factors that together shape the transportation equity outcomes for individuals. In a real world setting\, for example\, one’s income level\, age\, gender\, ethnicity\, residential location\, work location\, and access to various travel modes all play key roles in determining how one is affected by the transportation system. In such a complex system where numerous population\, land-use\, and transportation factors are at play\, the influence of these factors on distributional outcomes can seem impossible to disentangle. In this presentation\, I will discuss the usefulness of decomposing transportation equity outcomes using a set of distributional comparisons and scenario analyses. This demonstration uses the 2000 Bay Area Travel Survey and (activity-based) mode choice model. The findings show that activity based models in conjunction with distributional comparisons are capable of revealing the population and environmental factors that result in clear “winners and losers” due to transportation changes.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Development
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nTourism is a fast-growing services sector in developing countries. This paper combines a rich collection of Mexican microdata with a quantitative spatial equilibrium model and a new empirical strategy to study the long-term economic consequences of tourism both locally and in the aggregate. We find that tourism causes large and significant local economic gains relative to less touristic regions that are in part driven by significant positive spillovers on manufacturing. In the aggregate\, however\, these local spillovers are largely offset by reductions in agglomeration economies among less touristic regions\, so that the national gains from tourism are mainly driven by a classical market integration effect.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:\"Plasticity to Stability of Development:Studies of Cell Death and Cell Survival in the Auditory Brainstem\"
DESCRIPTION:Edwin W Rubel\, Virginia Merrill Bloedel Hearing Research Center\, Department of Otolaryngology- Head and Neck Surgery\, Department of Physiology and Biophysics\, University of Washington\, Seattle\n\nSince the classic experiments of Hamburger\, Levi-Montalcini\, and Hubel & Wiesel\, a large variety of studies have shown that manipulations of peripheral input and sensory experience can have profound influences on the development of sensory encoding pathways of the central nervous system. We have used the brainstem auditory pathways of birds and mammals to investigate the early cellular events underlying deprivation- and deafferentation-induced changes in the structure and integrity of neurons and glial cells. Our work in this area uses a variety of methodologies on in vivo and in vitro preparations of the brainstem to address three issues related to activity-regulated development and maintenance of auditory brainstem neurons. What is the nature of the intercellular signals regulating structural integrity of postsynaptic neurons? What are some of the intracellular cascades of events underlying deprivation-induced changes in neuronal integrity? What biological mechanisms may underlie developmental differences in responses to peripheral manipulations (critical periods)? I will briefly summarize our approach to these problems and then discuss recent and ongoing experiments focused toward understanding the differential susceptibility of neonatal and adult sensory systems to neuronal death due to deprivation of afferent activity (a critical period) using normal and transgenic mice\, and microarray technology.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Alaska\, Binford\, and Landscape Modeling: Approximating the Shift to Logistical Mobility During Alaskan Prehistory
DESCRIPTION:Through the lens of Binford's forager-collector model and based on site\ndistribution data\, the speaker will present preliminary evidence for an earlier\ntransition from foraging to collecting subsistence strategies than has been\npreviously suggested for Central Alaska. Seasonally-abundant resources like\nsalmon and caribou offered prehistoric Central Alaskans an incredible\nsubsistence opportunity\, particularly if stored. Clarifying the timing and causes of\nthe transition to logistical mobility will permit a more accurate reconstruction of\nAlaskan prehistory and contribute to a broader understanding of such\nsubsistence transitions among prehistoric hunter-gatherer. The speaker asks\nattendees to help her workshop these ideas\, which will ultimately culminate in her\npre-doctoral research paper.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series | Japanese Imperial Maps: Collections of Gaihozu in Japan and in the United States
DESCRIPTION:The word Gaihozu originally meant maps of foreign countries produced by the Japanese military up until the end of World War II. However\, this term is frequently applied now to maps of Taiwan\, Korea and Kwantung Province produced by its colonial governments. In this presentation\, the word Gaihozu denotes both of them. Professor Kobayashi will trace the history of the gathering of geographical information in East Asia by the Japanese military\, and investigate the destruction\, preservation\, and study of Gaihozu in the post-World War II era\, drawing upon his research in collections held in various locations in Japan and the United States.\n\nShigeru Kobayashi is a Professor at Osaka University of Tourism and Professor Emeritus at Osaka University\, Japan. He received his M.A. and Ph.D. in literature from Kyoto University. He has extensive teaching experience in Liberal Arts\, Literature\, and Human Geography\, and has taught at Kyushu University\, National Museum of Ethnology\, and Osaka University. His research interests lie in cultural geography and cultural ecology. His main goal is to understand long-term transition of the relationship between human and environment.  He especially focuses on use of resources in agriculture and livestock farming and examines the impact of natural disaster and epidemics.

SUMMARY:Presentation:P&SC Brown Bag: Understanding the development of callous unemotional traits and antisocial behavior
DESCRIPTION:Youth antisocial behavior\, which includes violence\, rule-breaking\, and substance use\, represents a major public health concern because of the negative economic\, social\, and health effects it has on perpetrators\, victims\, and families. To better understand its developmental origins\, we need to improve our characterization of the heterogeneity within antisocial behavior. My talk will focus on a dimension within antisocial behavior defined by high levels of callous unemotional (CU) traits\, which comprises low empathy and guilt and a lack of caring about others\, and predicts particularly severe and chronic aggression and rule-breaking across development. I will present research examining the origins of CU traits\, focusing on early childhood given that this developmental period heralds the emergence of individual differences in empathy\, guilt\, and conscience. My work evaluates the meaning and measurement of CU behaviors in early childhood and their role as a developmental precursor to CU traits and severe behavior problems later in childhood. I will also present findings from my work examining the importance of context and the environment to the development of CU behaviors\, with a particular focus on parenting practices. The talk will conclude with a summary of my recent research modeling the interaction of context and biology over time and how specific environmental\, neural\, and genetic risk factors interact to increase the risk that children develop CU behaviors and more severe antisocial behavior.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Access to Law for Reporters: How PACER Impedes (and Enables) Journalism
DESCRIPTION:Sarah Jeong\, a journalist trained as a lawyer\, covers how access to law affects reporters\, and why open access is important for better journalism. The PACER system (Public Access to Court Electronic Records) is the source of many reported stories in the media\, from true crime to science features to cute items about monkeys taking selfies. But its gated interface and clunky architecture throw a lot of hurdles in the way. \n\nThis event is in celebration of Open Access Week (October 24-30\, 2016)\, a global event to increase awareness about the importance of access to information.\n\nJeong is a contributing editor at Vice Motherboard who writes about technology\, policy\, and law. She is the author of The Internet of Garbage\, and has bylines at the Atlantic\, the Verge\, Forbes\, the Guardian\, Slate\, WIRED\,Vice Magazine\, and Bitch Magazine. She graduated from Harvard Law School in 2014. As a law student\, she edited the Harvard Journal of Law & Gender\, and worked at the Electronic Frontier Foundation and at the Berkman Center for Internet & Society. She is a Poynter Fellow in Journalism at Yale for 2016\, and also currently a fellow at the Internet Law & Policy Foundry.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection
DESCRIPTION:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection is the first major exhibition to examine the subject of Tibetan book covers. For Tibetan Buddhists\, books are a divine presence in which the Buddha lives and reveals himself\, and they are venerated and handled with the utmost respect. The exhibition features 33 book covers dating from the eleventh to the eighteenth century that represent the glorious iconographic array and non-figural decoration typical of these sacred items. The majority of covers in the exhibition are Tibetan Buddhist\, but the exhibition also includes a rare Bon-religion cover and two covers from Mongolia\, as well as an important pair of covers produced circa 1411 for the Chinese Ming emperor Yongle. Protecting Wisdom presents a stunning visual display that illuminates a virtually unknown type of art\, one that will charm and intrigue both those familiar and unfamiliar with Tibetan art.

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:Class / Instruction:The Love\, Lure and Lore of the Clothesline
DESCRIPTION:This class will help revive memories of the days when laundry was hung to dry outdoors – when folks went “online” without the Internet.  \n\nYou will see a display of laundry nostalgia.  Share laundry poetry\, personal stories\, the clothesline in art and the opportunity to view clotheslines in ways you never before appreciated.  We will also cover ethnic stereotypes in the laundry industry\, feminism\, industrialization\, cultural issues and you will learn why “solar drying” should be encouraged.  Let’s hang out together! \n\nThis class for those 50 and over will meet for two hours each on Thursdays\, October 27 and November 3.\n\nInstructor Anne Lawrence has been a clothesline historian and hobbyist for over 20 years.

DESCRIPTION:This is joint work with Florian Enescu. In this talk\, we extend the definition of Frobenius complexity\, introduce by Enescu and Yao\, to the setting of Cartier sub-algebras. Furthermore\, we show that\, under suitable hypothesis\, the Frobenius complexity is finite by showing an effective bound. As a corollary\, we obtain a proof of the finiteness of the Frobenius Complexity of R for a large family of rings. Speaker(s): Felipe Perez (Georgia State University)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Analysis/Probability Learning Seminar
DESCRIPTION:We will continue our proof of Marcus-Spielman-Srivastava theorem. Last time we end up with showing that the characteristic polynomial of summation of rank 1\, positive semi-definite deterministic Hermitian matrices is real and stable via the fact that stable polynomials are closed under restriction and under certain differentiation operators.\n\nThis time\, we will examine some convexity properties of real stable polynomials. As a result of that\, we can show that for summation of rank 1\, positive semi-definite random Hermitian matrices\, the maximal root of the expected characteristic polynomial is stable and nicely controlled when the expected trace of each summand is bounded. \n Speaker(s): Feng Wei (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Differential Equations
DESCRIPTION:In a recent work Sideris constructed a finite-parameter family of compactly supported affine solutions to the free boundary isentropic compressible Euler equations satisfying the physical vacuum condition.  The support of these solutions expands at a linear rate in time. \n\nWe show that if the adiabatic exponent gamma belongs to the interval (1\, 5/3] then these affine motions are nonlinearly stable\; small perturbations lead to global-in-time solutions that remain \"close\" to the affine solutions\, are smooth in the interior of their support\, and no shocks are formed in the process.  \n\nOur strategy relies on two key ingredients: a new interpretation of the affine motions using an (almost) invariant action of GL(3) on the compressible Euler system and the use of Lagrangian coordinates. The former suggests a particular rescaling of time and a change of variables that elucidates a stabilisation mechanism\, while the latter requires introducing new ideas with respect to the existing well-posedness theory for vacuum free boundary fluid equations. This is joint work with Juhi Jang (USC). Speaker(s): Mahir Hadzic (King`s College London)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EIHS Lecture: \"Reies López Tijerina\, the Apocalypse\, and the Religious Origins of the Mexican American Civil Rights Movement\"
DESCRIPTION:In Mexican American history books Reies López Tijerina is heralded as a radical\, revolutionary\, cultural nationalist who putatively took up arms against the American state during his 1967 “raid” on the Tierra Amarilla Courthouse in northern New Mexico. Starting in 1957\, Tijerina began organizing Mexicanos to recuperate the communal lands they had lost after the US-Mexico War\, blaming Anglos and their courts\, offering searing critiques of the Mexican American poverty that followed\, as well as the denigration of Mexicano culture and the systematic eradication of Spanish-language instruction. All of this occurred between 1957 and 1970\, or thirteen of his eighty-eight years of life. This lecture explores the longer trajectory of his life and thought\, particularly as shaped by his education as a Pentecostal preacher\, the apocalypse of the Book of Revelation\, the detonation of atomic bombs over Japan\, and his quest for the Antichrist. \n\nRamón A. Gutiérrez is the Preston & Sterling Morton Distinguished Service Professor in United States History and the College at University of Chicago. A native of New Mexico\, Gutiérrez received his Bachelor of Arts degree in Latin American history at the University of New Mexico in 1973\, and his PhD in Colonial Latin American history from the University of Wisconsin\, Madison in 1980. He has taught at the University of Wisconsin\, Pomona College\, and the University of California\, San Diego\, where he founded the Ethnic Studies Department and the Center for the Study of Race and Ethnicity\, and served as the campus Associate Chancellor.\n\nHis themes of his research and publication include race and ethnic relations in the Americas from 1492 to the present\; religion and spirituality in the hemisphere\; ethnic Mexican culture and politics on both sides of the border\; immigration and adaptation in the United States\; and inequality and diversity in American society. His works include: When Jesus Came the Corn Mothers Went Away: Marriage\, Sexuality and Power in New Mexico\, 1500-1846 (Stanford\, 1991)\; The Encyclopedia of the North American Colonies (Charles Scribner's Sons\, 1993)\; Recovering the U.S. Hispanic Literary Heritage (Arte Público Press\, 1993)\; Festivals and Celebrations in American Ethnic Communities (University of New Mexico Press\, 1995)\; Mexican Home Altars (University of New Mexico Press\, 1997)\; Contested Eden:  California before the Gold Rush (University of California Press\, 1998)\; and\, Mexicans in California: Emergent Challenges and Transformations (University of Illinois Press\, 2009).  His work has been recognized with a number of honors and awards\, including a Mac Arthur Prize Fellowship. He has just finished a book entitled\, The Fire of the Ire of God: The Religious and Political Thought of Reies López Tijerina and the Origins of the Mexican American Civil Rights Movement.\n\nFree and open to the public.\n\nThis event is part of the Thursday Series of the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Philip Beesley and Iris Van Herpen \"New Bodies New Worlds\" (Acadia Conference Keynote)
DESCRIPTION:Since their first conversations in 2012\, Atelier van Herpen in Amsterdam and Beesley’s Living Architecture Systems Group have been creating couture worn by celebrities\, circulated in multiple exhibitions\, and hailed by global critics: “The most powerful fashion mix of nature and technology that I have ever seen”- Suzy Menkes\, Vogue. Working within a wide community of scientists\, engineers\, and artists\, Iris van Herpen and Philip Beesley’s collaborative explorations draw from next-generation digital fabrication and computational modeling\, exquisitely tuned traditional hand craft drawn from instrument and toolmaking\, and subtle phenomena guided by contemporary submolecular physics and far-from-equilibrium evolutionary biology. Numerous cycles of samples and prototypes have been exchanged between Atelier van Herpen in Amsterdam and Beesley’s Waterloo Architecture studio\, exploring innovative new materials\, electricity and chemistry within collections that are highly complex and incredibly diverse in shape\, structure\, and construction. New Bodies\, New Worlds will offer a unique view of van Herpen and Beesley’s collaborative work. Curator Sarah Schleuning of the Atlanta High Museum will moderate a conversation between the two creators including personal reflections and in-depth explorations of specialized craft. Extensions into full-scale architecture alongside intricately detailed personal-scale designs will be illustrated in detail.\nFirst taking inspiration from Beesley's Hylozoic Series in the creation of her collection\, “Hybrid Holism” (Paris Haute Couture Week\, July 2012)\, van Herpen translated a shared sensibility for subtle materials\, electricity and chemistry into a collection that was highly complex and incredibly diverse in shape\, structure\, and material. For her 2013 Spring Summer Collection\, van Herpen presented the widely acclaimed “Voltage” collection which featured works developed in collaboration with Beesley. Finely detailed flexible meshwork structures and translucent frond components forming the outer layers of three intricate dresses were developed through close dialogue between Beesley and van Herpen's studios. Beesley contributed to ten dresses for Van Herpen’s 2014 Magnetic Motion collection\, presented at Centre Pompidou. The collaborators' innovative designs combine precisely detailed polymer\, crystal and leather components into interlinking three-dimensional fabric structures with striking qualities of flexibility\, sparkle and transparency.  The newly engineered fabrics bridged between couture and ready-to-wear. Their combined work debuted as part of Van Herpen's Fall-Winter 2015-16 collection on March 10th\, 2015 at the Palais de Tokyo for Paris Fashion Week\, and continued their longstanding collaboration for the Lucid collection\, presented in Paris on March 8th\, 2016. Van Herpen explored the concept of lucid dreaming in this collection. \nTheir Keynote presentation at the ACADIA2016 conference will be co-hosted by the Penny Stamps Distinguished Speaker Series and Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning. The event will take place at the Michigan Theater\, 5:10pm Thursday\, October 27 2016\, and is open to the public.\nParallel to this event\, the solo exhibition Iris van Herpen: Transforming Fashion\, curated by Schleuning\, will be exhibited at the Grand Rapids Art Museum October 23\, 2016 – January 15\, 2017. This will be of only seven North American venues for Transforming Fashion. For more information see: http://www.artmuseumgr.org/2016/01/29/iris-van-herpen-transforming-fashion/\nFor more information on the ACADIA 2016 conference\, including additional keynote speakers\, please see the conference website.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:New Bodies\, New Worlds: The Collaborative Work of Iris van Herpen and Philip Beesley
DESCRIPTION:Since their first conversations in 2012\, Atelier van Herpen studio in Amsterdam and Beesley’s Living Architecture Systems Group have been co-creating innovative couture that has been worn by celebrities\, circulated in multiple exhibitions\, and hailed by global critics. Working within a wide community of scientists\, engineers\, and artists\, Iris van Herpen and Philip Beesley’s collaborative explorations combine exquisitely detailed hand-crafted materials into three-dimensional fabrics\, incorporating instrument and toolmaking\, advanced manufacturing\, next-generation computation and artificial intelligence\, and subtle phenomena inspired by the natural world. New Bodies\, New Worlds offers a unique view of Van Herpen and Beesley’s collaborative work.\n\nPhilip Beesley is a practicing visual artist\, architect\, and professor whose work is focused on rapidly expanding technology and the culture of responsive and interactive systems. Beesley’s collaborative work has the potential to change how we build architecture by transforming the physical structures that support buildings\, the technical systems that control them\, and fundamental relationships with the natural world surrounding them. Philip Beesley’s Living Architecture Systems Group employs methods that incorporate industrial design\, digital prototyping\, instrument making\, and mechatronics engineering. Beesley has authored and edited sixteen books and proceedings\, and his work was selected to represent Canada at the 2010 Venice Biennale for Architecture. He has been recognized by the Prix de Rome in Architecture\, VIDA 11.0\, FEIDAD\, two Governor General’s Awards\, Architizer A+ Art Award\, and as a Katerva finalist.\n\nIris van Herpen stands for reciprocity between craftsmanship and innovation in technique and materials. She creates a modern view on Haute Couture that combines fine handwork techniques with digital technology. Van Herpen forces fashion to the extreme contradiction between beauty and regeneration. Iris’ designs require a unique treatment and creation of material. For this reason\, van Herpen prefers interdisciplinary research and often collaborates with other artists and scientists. She states: “For me fashion is an expression of art that is very closely related to me and to my body. I see it as my expression of identity combined with desire\, moods\, and cultural setting. In all my work I try to make clear that fashion is an artistic expression […] With my work I intend to show that fashion can certainly have an added value to the world\, that it can be timeless and that its consumption can be less important than its beginning.”\n\nSarah Schleuning\, conversation moderator\, is the curator of decorative arts and design at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta\, Georgia. She curated the touring exhibition\, Iris van Herpen: Transforming Fashion\, now on view at the Grand Rapids Art Museum from October 23\, 2016 through January 15\, 2017.\n\nIn Partnership with the Association for Computer Aided Design in Architecture (ACADIA)\, Taubman College\, and the Grand Rapids Art Museum.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Visionary Poetry after the Fall: Khersonsky\, Kruglov\, Sedakova\, Shvarts
DESCRIPTION:In an era when theology has become a contested space in Russia\, as elsewhere\, some poets have rejected intolerance and divisiveness to try to imagine the religious experience of the other – as Holy Fool\, forgotten saint\, strangely powerful monk\, or Jew destined for diaspora. These poets are committed to a politics of free expression\, and in their poetics of faith the limits on autonomy brought by ritual\, rules\, and religious traditions are experienced as their own form of liberation. They stand at the threshold between the secular and the sacred\, creating visionary poems as ethical acts. \n\nStephanie Sandler is Ernest E. Monrad Professor of Slavic Languages and Literatures and Chair of the Slavic Department\, Harvard University. She has written about Pushkin and myths of Pushkin in Russian culture\, and about contemporary poetry of Russia and of the United States. She has a long-standing interest in literary and cultural theory\, including feminist theory\, and has studied women’s writings in and beyond Russia. Professor Sandler is currently working on a history of Russian literature with three co-authors\, due out from Oxford in 2017\, and a monograph on Russian poetry after 1989\, from which this talk is taken.

DESCRIPTION:Parsonsfield is a five-piece alt/folk band from Northampton\, MA that infuses a rowdy\, rock 'n' roll spirit into its bluegrass and folk influences\, blowing away any preconception of what you think banjos and mandolins should sound like. They weren't always called Parsonsfield (the band started out as Poor Old Shine\, but changed in July 2014). The new name was born of the inspired experiences recording two albums in beautiful\, rural Parsonsfield\, Maine\, at Great North Sound Society. \"We owe a lot to what happened there\,\" said Freeman of their time at Great North. \"Our sound really changed when Erik joined ... it pulled us from being a more traditional string band to something that felt much more uniquely ourselves. It made us the band we are today.\" Rock-and-roll rootsters Laney Jones & The Spirits are special guests.

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:Sinking City\, Between Civilization and the Deep Blue Sea
DESCRIPTION:Jakarta\, Indonesia has a serious problem with flooding. The city is literally sinking while also experiencing climate change related sea-level rise. Add to that the yearly heavy rainfall the city sees from the Southeast Asian monsoon and a population that has swelled beyond ten million due to rapid urbanization\, and it’s easy to see why Jakarta’s infrastructure is experiencing significant strain. Jakarta isn’t an isolated example of this perfect storm. It represents the future difficulty that coastal cities all over the world are likely to face.\n\nUnderstanding that lessons learned in Jakarta can have a global impact\, University of Michigan alumus Frank Sedlar set out to help with flood mitigation in Jakarta. Frank earned his master of science degree from Michigan Engineering and also studied the Indonesian language while at the university. Photojournalist and filmmaker Marcin Szczepanski and writer Ben Logan from Michigan Engineering chronicled Frank’s experience while in Jakarta working on modern solutions to Jakarta’s growing problem.\n\nPlease join us for an opening reception on Friday\, October 21 at 5 PM at the International Institute Gallery. Refreshments will be served.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Big Data in Finance
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday and Friday\, October 27-28\, 2016\, the Office of Financial Research and the University of Michigan’s Center on Finance\, Law and Policy will host a joint conference\, “Big Data in Finance” in Ann Arbor\, Michigan. The conference will bring together a wide range of scholars\, regulators\, policymakers\, and practitioners to explore how big data can be used to enhance financial stability and address other challenges in financial markets.\n\nThe Big Data in finance conference\, which is held in collaboration with the Michigan Institute for Data Science (MIDAS)\, the Michigan Ross School of Business\, the Michigan College of Engineering and Michigan Law School will explore ways to make financial data more accessible and more secure\, as well as more useful to regulators\, market participants\, and the public. As new data sets are created\, opportunities emerge. Vast quantities of financial data may help identify emerging risks\, enable market participants and regulators to see and better understand financial networks and interconnections\, enhance financial stability\, bolster consumer protection\, and increase access to the underserved. Financial data can also increase transparency in the financial system for market participants\, regulators and the public.\n\nHowever\, these vast data sets can raise significant questions about protecting security and privacy\; ensuring data quality\; protecting against discrimination or privacy intrusions\; managing and analyzing enormous data sets\; synthesizing and presenting data in usable form\; and sharing data among regulators\, researchers\, and the public. Moreover\, any conflicts among regulators and financial firms over such data could create opportunities for regulatory arbitrage and gaps in understanding risk in the financial system.\n\nHow should all of that data be aggregated\, protected\, analyzed\, and shared? We have recruited experts domestically and internationally who have considered these questions and published research on these topics\, or who have dealt with these issues in their professional roles and can ground the policy initiatives with real-world experience.\n\nPlease register at http://financelawpolicy.umich.edu/big-data-conference/.\n\n*Please note: registration to the Big Data conference is free and open to the public\, but space is limited. Registration will close when we reach capacity.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Drug Discovery Lecture Series: \"Fishing\, Drug Development and the Prevention of Acquired Hearing Loss\"
DESCRIPTION:Edwin W Rubel\, Virginia Merrill Bloedel Hearing Research Center\, Department of Otolaryngology- Head and Neck Surgery\, Department of Physiology and Biophysics\, University of Washington\, Seattle\n\nDr. Rubel will present studies aimed at the discovery of genes and drugs that will help us understand how and why inner ear hair cells die as a result of a variety of intrinsic and extrinsic challenges such as therapeutic drugs. The goal is to discover cellular pathways and new reagents to prevent hearing cell loss and balance disorders. Dr. Rubel's lab has been using the lateral line system of larval zebrafish\, Daneio rerio\, to study modifiers of aminoglycoside and cisplatin hair cell toxicity. This platform is particularly advantageous for in vivo cellular analyses\, for genetic screening and for screening large drug libraries to find protective or toxic compounds. Large numbers of animals can be efficiently processed and a variety of fluorescent markers have been identified that can be used to dynamically examine the viability and cellular processes of hair cells in living animals.\n\nDr. Rubel will focus on two aspects of this work. The first will be a series of studies aimed at understanding the disruption calcium regulation that leads to hair cell death. The second example will be studies attempting to develop a new drug that will prevent hearing loss by screening small molecule libraries of drug-like compounds\, medicinal chemistry and preclinical testing\, including proof of concept evaluation in mammals.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:John Cage: \"How to get Started\" sound installation
DESCRIPTION:Sound installation of John Cage's \"How to Get Started\,\" featuring a library of previous performances.\n\nAbout \"How to Get Started\": John Cage conceived HOW TO GET STARTED almost as an afterthought—a performance substituting for another that had been planned in 1989 for delivery at “Sound Design: An Invitational Conference on the Uses of Sound for Radio Drama\, Film\, Video\, Theater and Mu-sic” presented by Bay Area Radio Drama at Sprocket Systems\, Skywalker Ranch\, in Nicasio\, California.  In his introduction\, Cage talks about the difficulty of initiating the creative process\, while exploring the usefulness of improvisation\, a subject about which he had long been deeply ambivalent.  He proposes a col-laborative framework in which sound engineers capture and subsequently layer his extemporized monologue\, which consisted of ten brief commentaries on top-ics then of interest.  This amounted to an experiment having to do with thinking in public\, before a live audience.\n\nTwenty years after John Cage's first and only performance of HOW TO GET STARTED in Nicasio\, the John Cage Trust and Slought Foundation joined forces to create an interactive installation enabling the public to add yet another layer to the mix: your extemporizations on your ten topics of interest\, in your voice. Drawing upon Cage’s realization of HOW TO GET STARTED as a script in effect\, performers have been invited to participate in its further life\, both in public settings and in the more intimate\, specially designed recording studio at Slought.

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: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:Traces: Reconstructing the History of a Chokwe Mask
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition Traces focuses on one artwork from the Museum's African holdings: a Chokwe mask that was collected in 1905 near the Angolan city of Dundo by the German explorer Leo Frobenius. Its presence at UMMA today—almost 7\,500 miles away from the context in which it was originally created\, used\, and valued—is the result of a long and tumultuous journey\, spanning a hundred years\, three continents\, and numerous people whose lives are forever connected to the artifact that passed through their hands.\nTraces tells the stories of some of these individuals as it reconstructs the “biography” of the mask. Drawing on the Museum’s African art collection and complemented with national loans\, the exhibition is informed by research that exposes the mask’s many layers and restores some of its historical complexity. Visitors will be able to look closely\, and in great detail\, at this intriguing artwork and its fascinating story.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the James and Vivian Curtis Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Center for the Education of Women's Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund and African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EIHS Workshop: \"Borders of the State\"
DESCRIPTION:As historians renew their discipline’s commitment to questions of social justice in the past and present\, they increasingly focus on the role of “the state.” Scholars working at different scales\, from the local to the global\, seek to interrogate the political apparatuses that enact and enforce power relations in a variety of dimensions. Yet\, this focus on “the state” also raises the danger of reductionist and deterministic explanations\, which reify the political realm and downplay human agency. This workshop will take up the question of how we\, as historians\, conceptualize the meanings of “the state” in our work with those dangers in mind. In their thematic diversity\, ranging from the US-Mexican border to military research\, the panelists’ papers share a commitment to examining the role of “the state.” Yet\, they also reveal how sensitive this category is to specific conceptual and theoretical framings.  \nFeaturing panelists:\n\nSalem Elzway (PhD Student\, History\, University of Michigan)\nToniAnn Treviño (PhD Candidate\, History\, University of Michigan)\nRamón A. Gutiérrez (commentator\; Preston & Sterling Morton Distinguished Service Professor in United States History and the College\, University of Chicago)\nAnthony P. Mora (chair\; Associate Professor\, History and American Culture\, University of Michigan)\n\nFree and open to the public. Lunch provided. \n\nThis event is part of the Friday Series of the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

SUMMARY:Performance:Dance Master Class Repertory Series: Danny L. Reid and Jillian Hooper
DESCRIPTION:Reid's master class will be rooted in recent explorations of gender through two principal avenues\; first\, by extracting and reconstructing movement materials from choreographic works Plasma (2015) and Vines of Duty (2009)\, and second\, by embodying the findings of an upcoming week of movement research in the SMTD Department of Dance with lecturer of dance\, Jillian Hopper. \n\nEach Modern Lab session features a different guest artist teaching a master class and sections from their repertory. This panorama of the contemporary dance field is presented to broaden the students’ awareness of potential career possibilities.\nEach guest artist conducts a 30-minute technique class/warm-up and then teaches repertory that is performed by the class. In the final 15 minutes\, faculty coordinator Bill De Young conducts a Q & A with each artist\, discussing their career\; their recommendations for transitioning from student to professional\, and what they look for when they audition dancers for their projects.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Labor Economics
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThis paper investigates whether preschool children exposed to Sesame Street when it began in 1969 experienced improved educational and labor market outcomes subsequently. We exploit geographic variation in broadcast reception derived from technological limitations\, including distance to a broadcast tower and UHF versus VHF transmission. We relate this variation to Census data on grade-for-age status\, educational attainment\, and labor market outcomes in 1980\, 1990\, and 2000\, respectively. The results indicate that Sesame Street improved school readiness\, particularly for boys and children living in economically disadvantaged areas. The estimated impact on ultimate educational attainment and labor market outcomes is inconclusive.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:PhonDi Discussion Group
DESCRIPTION:Marta Ortega discusses \"How do Chinese-English speakers represent pitch in their bilingual lexicon?\"\n\nAbstract\nThere is consistent evidence that the two languages of a bilingual speaker interact. The question is to establish the extent and the details of this interaction. We address this question by exploring pitch in the lexicon of Chinese-English bilinguals. Pitch -- or rate of vocal fold vibration -- is the acoustic material used to express sentence-level meanings in English by means of sentence intonation and lexical meanings in Chinese by means of tones. This division of labor of pitch leads to the assumption that pitch is represented in the Chinese lexicon but not in the English lexicon. As a result\, the question arises of how Chinese-English speakers represent pitch in their bilingual lexicons. Do these bilingual speakers represent pitch in English words like speakers of non-tonal languages do suggesting little interaction between their Chinese and English lexicons? Or on the contrary\, do we find differences between the pitch representations of English words by Chinese-English speakers on the one hand and by non-tonal speakers on the other? If so\, what is the nature of these differences and what kind of interaction between the Chinese and English lexicons do these differences suggest? Behavioral experiments and one recent ERP experiment addressing these questions will be presented.

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:Applied Interdisciplinary Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:A wide range of physics problems classically formulated as elliptic PDEs may be equivalently cast as boundary integral equations (BIE) of the second kind. Key advantages of this approach feature dimensionality reduction and improved conditioning\; they may be best leveraged by developing fast algorithms for the evaluation and solution of these integral equations.   We present a general framework to accelerate the solution of such boundary integrals using the Quantized Tensor Train (QTT) decomposition as an approximate compression and inversion scheme. We demonstrate that using QTT-based preconditioners for a Krylov subspace method leads to a fast\, memory-efficient and robust solver. Computational costs and storage of computing and updating the QTT inverse are extremely modest O(log N)\, and it can be applied in O(N logN) time. Finally\, we introduce a recently developed BIE formulation for rigid body Stokes flows\, given prescribed forces and torques. We discuss the use of QTT and other fast algorithms in this context\, and discuss applications to particle sedimentation\, low Reynolds number swimming and magnetorheological flows.

Motivated by ideas in geometric group theory we will explain some new threshold theorems we have discovered for random graphs.  We will then explain applications of these results to the geometry of Coxeter groups.  Some of this talk will be on joint work with Hagen and Sisto\; other parts are joint work with Hagen\, Susse\, and Falgas-Ravry. Speaker(s): Jason Behrstock (CUNY)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Seminar | Holography and Scattering Amplitudes
DESCRIPTION:We recast 4D scattering amplitudes and their soft limits as correlators of a 2D CFT on the celestial sphere.  Our construction relies on a foliation of 4D flat space into a family of 3D hyperbolic geometries to which the AdS3/CFT2 dictionary is directly applicable.  By reformulating 4D scattering amplitudes as 3D Witten diagrams dual to 2D correlators\, we show how the Ward identities of the 2D CFT are equivalent to the 4D soft theorems.  Moreover\, we demonstrate how the infinite-dimensional Kac-Moody and Virasoro algebras of the 2D CFT are manifested as the asymptotic symmetries of 4D flat space.  Finally\, we discuss the interpretation of 4D electromagnetic and gravitational memory effects as a certain version of the 3D Aharonov-Bohm effect.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:SoConDi Discussion Group
DESCRIPTION:Ariana Bancu discusses \"Word order Variation and Change in Transylvanian Saxon.\"\n\nAbstract\nThis study analyzes variation and change in Transylvanian Saxon (TrSax)\, an endangered language spoken in Romania. In an intense contact situation featuring TrSax\, German\, and Romanian\, syntactic transfer is observable in TrSax verb clusters\, resulting in word order variation between TrSax and German-influenced structures\, and a new particle verb structure in TrSax. I compare current data collected through sociolinguistic interviews to data from other TrSax dialects\, and to ancestors of TrSax (e.g. Middle High German\, Luxembourgish) and show that subordinate clause verb clusters pattern differently in TrSax than in related varieties\, displaying flexible distribution between available structures. The transfer of new structures from German into TrSax is facilitated by the typological similarity between the two languages (c.f. Thomason\, 2003)\, however a complete change towards German is prevented by Romanian\, which shares similar structures with TrSax. Speakers who use Romanian regularly display different patterns than speakers who do not use Romanian.

This gives a more direct proof of results of Fock and Goncharov for the symplectic and spin groups\, and also allows one to quantize higher Teichmuller space in these cases. If time permits\, I will discuss applications to counting tensor invariants of finite dimensional representations of these groups. Speaker(s): Ian Le (Perimeter Institute)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: The Impact of the Rise of Algae and Land Plants on Global Biogeochemical Cycles
DESCRIPTION:The transition to eukaryote-rich marine ecosystems and the rise of land plans fundamentally altered global biogeochemical cycles. Yet there are poor constraints on when the transition to eukaryote-dominated marine ecosystems occurred and the roles that land plants played in shaping modern-style biogeochemical cycling. Based on an extensive new sedimentary zinc (Zn) isotope record across Earth’s history\, I provide evidence for the onset of eukaryotic regulation of the marine Zn cycle at ~800 Ma. A joint evaluation of the microfossil and Zn isotope records suggests that eukaryotes evolved relatively early in the history of life (~1700 to 1600 Ma) but did not rise to ecological prominence until much later in Earth’s history. Lithium (Li) isotopes are an emerging proxy with the potential to track how the magnitude and style of continental weathering have changed through time. There has been extensive work on Li cycling in modern systems and this work has fostered the development of sound constraints upon the modern Li isotope budget. This work has provided a platform and impetus for the generation of a Li isotope record through Earth's history\, which I will take a first attempt at providing. My initial results provide evidence for inhibited clay formation during weathering prior to the rise of land plants in the early Paleozoic. Therefore\, the long-term Li isotope record provides support for the view that land plants dramatically changed the process of weathering. Interestingly\, this transition appears to occur with the earliest (i.e.\, non-arborescent) land plants.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Biophysics Seminar: Assistant Prof. Arun Anantharam\, University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Assistant Professor of Pharmacology\n\nAbstract\nThe sympathetic nervous system (SNS) is activated by a variety of threats to homeostasis\, including injury\, hypothermia\, psychological distress\, and exertion.  In response\, adrenomedullary chromaffin cells secrete a cocktail of potent catecholamines and neuropeptides\, stored within secretory vesicles\, into the circulation. The secreted transmitters act in the periphery to drive compensatory or anticipatory changes necessary\, in some cases\, for survival. By design\, the chromaffin cell secretory response is not fixed\, but mutable\, in order that cellular release properties can be rapidly tuned to physiological requirements.  However\, the mechanisms underlying the plasticity of this system are unclear.  Without this knowledge our understanding of the specificity and subtlety of sympathetic nervous system function will remain limited.\n\nThe chromaffin cell secretory response has been modeled extensively using biophysical methods\, including measurements of changes in plasma membrane capacitance in stimulated cells. The models are consistent with seemingly interchangeable pools of readily releasable\, slowly releasable and reserve vesicles. A major assumption has been that vesicles have the same basic biochemical constituents and that the fusion reaction and the rates of discharge of vesicle contents are uniform. This idea is challenged by our recent findings. Specifically\, we discovered that chromaffin vesicles within the same cell can have functionally different isoforms of the key endogenous Ca2+ sensor Synaptotagmin (Syt). These isoforms (Syt-1 and Syt-7) confer different Ca2+ sensitivities to the vesicles in situ enabling them to respond differentially to depolarizing stimuli. Our current hypothesis is that vesicle heterogeneity may provide secretory cells with a rapid and contextually appropriate means of controlling fusion modes and release properties based on local Ca2+ levels. In this seminar\, I will present data that supports this hypothesis and discuss implications of functional vesicle heterogeneity for the regulation of the secretory response.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CSAS Lecture Series | Markets in Life: Surrogate Mothers on India's Reproductive Assembly Lines
DESCRIPTION:Between 2002 and 2016\, when commercial surrogacy was eventually banned in India\, surrogacy grew to a multi-million dollar industry and earned India the moniker\, the world’s “baby factory.” Drawing on interviews with surrogate mothers\, egg donors\, and garment workers in Bangalore\, as well as straight and gay couples in the U.S. and Australia\, this talk locates surrogacy as an activity that invokes both gift giving and market exchange. The speaker suggests that in the new kinds of embodied labor\, such as surrogacy\, egg and sperm donation\, the two worlds of market and non-market are co-constitutive\, and complicate notions of commodification\, altruism\, alienation\, and intimacy.\n\nSharmila Rudrappa is the director of the Center for Asian American Studies\, and professor in the Department of Sociology at the University of Texas at Austin. She teaches and writes on bio-markets\, labor\, and reproductive justice. Her most recent book is Discounted Life: The Price of Global Surrogacy in India (2015\, NYU Press).

His powerful posters for the Beijing Independent Film Festival are admired the world around.\n\nYing Liang (应亮) is a feature film director currently living in Hong Kong. He was born in Chongqing\, and studied filmmaking at Chongqing Film Academy and Beijing Normal University. He began his career making short films\, before making his first feature\, Taking Father Home\, in 2005. His other major films include The Other Half (2006)\, Condolences (2009)\, Good Cats (2008) and When Night Falls (2012). The latter film led to his current exile in Hong Kong\, when the government refused to allow his re-entry after an international film festival visit. Ying is also the founder of the Chongqing Independent Film and Video Festival\, which started in 2007 and was the first film festival in Western China.\n\nSee the full schedule of upcoming films: https://events.umich.edu/group/LRCCS?filter=tags%3AFilm+Series\,

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Philippe Schlenker Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:Philippe Schlenker is a global Distinguished Professor of Linguistics at New York University.\n\nRecent semantic studies of sign language have led to three salient claims. First\, in some cases sign languages make visible some crucial aspects of the Logical Form of sentences\, ones that are only inferred indirectly in spoken languages. Second\, along one dimension sign languages appear to be more expressive than spoken languages because rich iconic phenomena can be found at their logical core (e.g. Schlenker\, 'Visible Meaning'\, to appear). Third\, in order to understand the role of iconicity in language in general\,  signs with iconicity should be compared to ‘speech-plus-gesture’ rather than to speech alone  (Goldin-Meadow and Brentari\, 'Gesture\, sign and language'\, to appear) – hence the interest of a formal comparison between the iconic properties of signs and of gestures. \n\nWe will critically examine two common beliefs pertaining to this comparison. The first is that gestures differ from signs in not being subject to morphosyntactic rules. The second is that when speech is enriched with co-speech gestures\, it can ‘match’ the iconic semantics of signs. We will argue that both claims are incorrect. First\, we will suggest that some ‘gestural verbs’ display  non-trivial grammatical properties of sign language agreement verbs\, including under ellipsis. Second\, we will argue that semantically co-speech gestures differ from most iconic modulations in sign language in that the latter typically have an at-issue contribution\, whereas the former are usually presuppositional in nature. As a result\, signs with iconicity afford  different expressive resources from ‘speech-plus-gesture’.\n\nRelated readings:\n\nMorpho-syntactic properties of gestural verbs\nhttp://ling.auf.net/lingbuzz/003120\n\nSemantic properties of co-speech gestures:\nhttp://ling.auf.net/lingbuzz/002645\n\nBackground on sign language semantics: \nhttp://ling.auf.net/lingbuzz/002447

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Ethel V. Curry Distinguished Lecture in Musicology Nicholas Cook\, Cambridge
DESCRIPTION:Not long ago the idea of creativity in music brought to mind images of Beethoven and composers in garrets. Now the talk is all of collaborative and performative creativity\, with Beethoven dropping out of the picture. This talk proposes a way of thinking about musical creativity that embraces both individual and collaborative practice. It is based on the idea of creative emergence\, which arises out of the social interactions of collective performance. Cook develops existing approaches to jazz improvisation into a general model of real-time musical collaboration with an approach to composition that focuses on composers' interactions with physical or conceptual objects in the realm of “extended imagination.” Ostensibly solo creativity is based on the structures of social interaction\, now translated into the domain of physical and symbolic objects.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:FAST Lecture: Diet and Health in Imperial Rome: The View from Skeletons and Isotopes
DESCRIPTION:Urban Rome during the Empire is considered a place with high disease load and mortality\, affecting lower-class inhabitants of the city more so than elite. What we know about the Roman diet is also dichotomous: the rich dined well on a variety of foods\, while the poor ate wheat\, olive oil\, and wine. But most of this information is drawn from notoriously biased historical records. New\, interdisciplinary approaches to researching Roman health have arisen recently in anthropology. By combining data from carbon and nitrogen isotope analyses of skeletal material with lead concentration and palaeopathological analyses\, the average Roman can be seen in a new light. This talk will focus on the contributions that osteological and chemical analyses of three cemetery populations can make to our understanding of Roman diets and health.\n\nFAST lectures are free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:JOHN DINKELOO MEMORIAL LECTURE: ELIZABETH DILLER (ACADIA CONFERENCE KEYNOTE)
DESCRIPTION:Lecture is free and open to the public.\nElizabeth Diller is a founding partner of Diller Scofidio + Renfro (DS+R)\, an interdisciplinary design studio that works at the intersection of architecture\, the visual arts\, and the performing arts. With Ricardo Scofidio\, Diller was the first in the field of architecture to receive the “genius” award from the MacArthur Foundation\, which stated “their work explores how space functions in our culture and illustrates that architecture\, when understood as the physical manifestation of social relationships\, is everywhere\, not just in buildings.”\nDS+R established its identity through independent\, theoretical\, and self-generated projects before coming to international prominence with two of the most important planning initiatives in New York: the High Line\, and the redesign of the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts campus. In addition to the nearly completed Columbia University Graduate and Medical Education Building\, and The Broad museum in downtown Los Angeles\, Diller is Principal-in-Charge of The Shed\, a new center for artistic invention\, and the renovation and expansion of MoMA\, both in New York. Diller graduated from the Cooper Union School of Architecture in 1979\, and taught at the school from 1981-1990. She is a Professor of Architecture at Princeton University.\nDiller is a recipient of the Smithsonian Institution’s National Design Award\, the Lifetime Achievement Award from the National Academy of Design\, and the Brunner Prize from the American Academy of the Arts and Letters. She is a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences\, and International Fellow of the Royal Institute of British Architects. In 2013\, Diller was awarded the Barnard Medal of Distinction\, and DS+R was presented a Centennial Medal of Honor from the American Academy in Rome. Diller was selected by Time magazine as one of the “100 Most Influential People in the World.”\nThe John Dinkeloo Memorial Lecture was established to recognize John Dinkeloo's extraordinary contributions to architecture\, to honor his distinguished professional work and to pay tribute to this highly respected alumnus of the Architecture Program at the University of Michigan.

SUMMARY:Performance:John Cage: \"How to get Started\"
DESCRIPTION:How to Get Started is a collaborative experiment that explores improvisation and the origin of ideas. In the piece\, three community leaders will take the stage with ten note cards containing present thoughts and concerns. They will shuffle the deck\, and speak “off the cuff” on each idea. Each monologue will be recorded in collaboration with a sound engineer and looped back as the next card is addressed\, creating\, in the end\, a complex acoustic layering of ideas. \n\nAbout HOW TO GET STARTED\nJohn Cage conceived HOW TO GET STARTED almost as an afterthought—a performance substituting for another that had been planned in 1989 for delivery at “Sound Design: An Invitational Conference on the Uses of Sound for Radio Drama\, Film\, Video\, Theater and Mu-sic” presented by Bay Area Radio Drama at Sprocket Systems\, Skywalker Ranch\, in Nicasio\, California. In his introduction\, Cage talks about the difficulty of initiating the creative process\, while exploring the usefulness of improvisation\, a subject about which he had long been deeply ambivalent. He proposes a col-laborative framework in which sound engineers capture and subsequently layer his extemporized monologue\, which consisted of ten brief commentaries on top-ics then of interest. This amounted to an experiment having to do with thinking in public\, before a live audience.\n\nTwenty years after John Cage's first and only performance of HOW TO GET STARTED in Nicasio\, the John Cage Trust and Slought Foundation joined forces to create an interactive installation enabling the public to add yet another layer to the mix: your extemporizations on your ten topics of interest\, in your voice. Drawing upon Cage’s realization of HOW TO GET STARTED as a script in effect\, performers have been invited to participate in its further life\, both in public settings and in the more intimate\, specially designed recording studio at Slought.

SUMMARY:Performance:The David Mayfield Parade
DESCRIPTION:If you’ve seen David Mayfield perform with The Avett Brothers\, Mumford & Sons\, or Jessica Lea Mayfield\, or at Bonnaroo (or at The Ark)—or as MC at the Ann Arbor Folk Festival—you’ve caught the charisma\, the heart\, and the comedy\, and you're likely ready for more. With eclectic\, cinematic songs that stir up images of the old West and urban cityscapes\, the singer-songwriter-bandleader takes chances musically and delves into adventurous production while still tapping into bluegrass roots. David's live shows are lively and sometimes comical. He grew up playing bass and touring with his family’s bluegrass band. As a teenager he established himself as a hot picker\, collecting national awards for his dexterity on guitar and mandolin. Conscious of being not just a musician\, but an entertainer—something his father instilled in him in the family band—he certainly makes an impression live. But it’s the strength of his songwriting and musicianship\, combined with that charm and personality\, that keep audiences coming back again and again.

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:Sinking City\, Between Civilization and the Deep Blue Sea
DESCRIPTION:Jakarta\, Indonesia has a serious problem with flooding. The city is literally sinking while also experiencing climate change related sea-level rise. Add to that the yearly heavy rainfall the city sees from the Southeast Asian monsoon and a population that has swelled beyond ten million due to rapid urbanization\, and it’s easy to see why Jakarta’s infrastructure is experiencing significant strain. Jakarta isn’t an isolated example of this perfect storm. It represents the future difficulty that coastal cities all over the world are likely to face.\n\nUnderstanding that lessons learned in Jakarta can have a global impact\, University of Michigan alumus Frank Sedlar set out to help with flood mitigation in Jakarta. Frank earned his master of science degree from Michigan Engineering and also studied the Indonesian language while at the university. Photojournalist and filmmaker Marcin Szczepanski and writer Ben Logan from Michigan Engineering chronicled Frank’s experience while in Jakarta working on modern solutions to Jakarta’s growing problem.\n\nPlease join us for an opening reception on Friday\, October 21 at 5 PM at the International Institute Gallery. Refreshments will be served.

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: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: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:The Aesthetic Movement
DESCRIPTION:Pictorialism was the first truly international photography movement\, and its practitioners\, among them Alfred Stieglitz\, Edward Steichen and Gertrude Käsebier\, sought to position photography as a legitimate aesthetic art form. They favored soft-focus images that drew upon the conventions of important artists and movements of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries—the influence of the Pre-Raphaelites\, James McNeill Whistler\, Japonisme\, and Art Nouveau are readily seen in the images on view in this exhibition.\n\nIn 1902 Alfred Stieglitz and other Pictorialist photographers founded the Photo-Secession in New York\, with Camera Work as the flagship periodical that published images by the group. Their poetic compositions drawn from contemporary life\, combined with the use of expensive and labor-intensive printing materials such as platinum and gum bichromate\, established these photographs as complex and nuanced works of high artistic quality. The exhibition features work by the principal Pictorialists\, including Stieglitz\, Steichen\, Käsebier\, Clarence White\, Paul Strand\, and Alvin Langdon Coburn.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Traces: Reconstructing the History of a Chokwe Mask
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition Traces focuses on one artwork from the Museum's African holdings: a Chokwe mask that was collected in 1905 near the Angolan city of Dundo by the German explorer Leo Frobenius. Its presence at UMMA today—almost 7\,500 miles away from the context in which it was originally created\, used\, and valued—is the result of a long and tumultuous journey\, spanning a hundred years\, three continents\, and numerous people whose lives are forever connected to the artifact that passed through their hands.\nTraces tells the stories of some of these individuals as it reconstructs the “biography” of the mask. Drawing on the Museum’s African art collection and complemented with national loans\, the exhibition is informed by research that exposes the mask’s many layers and restores some of its historical complexity. Visitors will be able to look closely\, and in great detail\, at this intriguing artwork and its fascinating story.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the James and Vivian Curtis Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Center for the Education of Women's Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund and African Studies Center.

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:Film Screening:LRCCS Film Series | \"A Sunny Day\" and \"Filmless Festival\"
DESCRIPTION:A Sunny Day 《9月28日･晴》 (dir. Ying Liang\, 25 min.\, 2014)\nA Sunny Day is a touching short film centered on a young woman’s visit to her father\, not having seen him for a while.

Wang Wo\, 85 min.\, 2015)\nWang Wo served as editor of footage collected by filmmakers\, artists\, festival volunteers\, journalists and audience members at the 11th Beijing Independent Film Festival.
