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:Young IO Economists Conference
DESCRIPTION:Spatial Equilibrium\, Search Frictions and Efficient Regulation in the Taxi Industry Abstract:\nThis paper analyzes the dynamic spatial equilibrium of taxicabs and shows how common taxi regulations lead to substantial inefficiencies. Taxis compete for passengers by driving to different locations around the city. Search costs ensure that optimal search behavior will still result in equilibrium frictions in the form of waiting times and spatial mismatch. Medallion limit regulations and fixed fare structures exacerbate these frictions by preventing markets from clearing on prices\, leaving empty taxis in some areas\, and excess demand in other areas. To analyze the role of regulation on frictions and efficiency\, I pose a dynamic model of search and matching between taxis and passengers under regulation. Using a comprehensive dataset of New York City yellow medallion taxis\, I use this model to compute the equilibrium spatial distribution of vacant taxis and estimate intraday demand. My estimates show that search frictions reduce welfare by $422M per year\, or 62%. Counterfactual analysis reveals that existing regulations attain only 11% of the efficiency implied by a social planner’s solution\, while the adoption of optimized two-part tariff pricing would lead to 89% efficiency\, or a welfare gain on the order of $2.1B per year. The addition of directed matching technology to an optimized regime would increase welfare even further\, by approximately $2.4B per year.\n\nHow do Vertical Contracts Affect Product Availability? An Empirical Study of the Grocery Industry Abstract:\nProducers frequently provide nancial incentives to retailers in order to gain distribution for their products. These payments often take the form of vendor allowances: lump-sum transfers to retailers that do not directly depend on volume. To quantify the size of vendor allowances and their eects on product assortments and welfare\, I develop a framework to identify lump-sum transfers using only data on retail prices\, sales\, and assortments. Without making any assumptions about producer and retailer bargaining\, set estimates of vendor allowances are recovered. Additionally\, by assuming that producers make take-it-or-leave-it oers\, point estimates can be obtained. Lower bounds from set estimates imply that\, on average\, vendor allowances amount to at least 5% of retailer revenues. I apply model estimates to simulate how market outcomes change in the absence of vendor allowances. Counterfactual simulations predict that retailers fare worse\, product variety is reduced as retailers replace \niche\" products with \mainstream\" options\, but consumers nevertheless are better o. Small producers\, which oer high-velocity products\, increase market distribution and prots\, but\, absent marginal cost data\, consequences for large producers are uncertain.\n\nA Theory of Bidding Dynamics and Deadlines in Online Retail Abstract:\nWe present an equilibrium search model that parsimoniously rationalizes the use of auctions as a sales mechanism for new-in-box goods—a frequent occurrence in online retail markets—and analyze whether the existence of these auctions is welfare enhancing relative to a market consisting only of posted prices. Buyers have a deadline by which the good must be purchased\, and sellers choose between auctions and posted-price mechanisms. As the deadline approaches\, buyers increase their bids and are more likely to buy through posted-price listings. The model predicts equilibrium price dispersion even for new\, homogeneous goods. Using data on one million auction and posted-price listings for new-in-box items on eBay.com\, we find robust evidence consistent with our model. As predicted\, bidders increase their bids from one auction to the next\, equilibrium price dispersion exists\, and auctions and posted-price listings coexist. Fitting the model to the data\, we find that retail auctions increase total welfare by 1.8% of the average retail price if listing fees exactly cover platform costs\, but reduce welfare by 2.3% if listing fees are pure profit.\n\nInput Allocation and Downstream Market Structure: Slot Control in the U.S. Airline Industry Abstract:\nTo help manage airport congestion and reduce delays\, airlines operating at four U.S. airports must obtain from the FAA operating authorizations called \"slots\" to take off or land. Currently\, the FAA allocates the slots using the \"use-it-or-lose-it\" rule. Because of that\, the current system of slot control may inadvertently make these airports more congested as it creates incentives for the airlines to hoard the slots. The goal of the paper is to theoretically and empirically investigate the link between input allocation and the downstream market structure. I estimate a structural econometric model of airline competition. Using this model\, I recalculate the downstream equilibrium for a set of alternative mechanisms of slot allocation.

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:Nam Center for Korean Studies Conference | Perspectives on Contemporary Korea 2016
DESCRIPTION:This conference\, Korean Families in Economic and Demographic Transitions\,” the sixth in Perspectives on Contemporary Korea series\, aims to bring scholars together to discuss how recent economic and demographic changes have affected parents and children in Korea\, and at the same time how changing family structure and arrangements have also contributed to recent economic and social inequality. In particular\, the conference invites scholars with both quantitative and qualitative approaches to Korean families. On the one hand\, quantitative studies can offer trends and patterns of changing Korean families. On the other hand\, qualitative research can explore subjective meanings\, perceptions\, and experiences of inequality and family changes beneath macro trends and patterns. In collaboration\, these approaches offer the opportunity for better understanding of changing Korean families and surrounding inequalities.\n\nComplete conference information: http://ii.umich.edu/ncks/news-events/events/conferences---symposia/perspectives-on-contemporary-korea/perspectives-on-contemporary-korea-2016---korean-families-in-eco.html

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: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:Performance:Dance Master Class Repertory Series: Alexander Springer and Xan Burley
DESCRIPTION:This technique master class\, co-taught by SMTD alums Xan Burley and Alex Springer\, explores their collaborative body of work as the Median Movement. Warm-up attends to the shifting weight of the body at rest and in motion\, generating heat for endurance\, strength\, and stability. Class exercises work to develop alignment and intelligent corporeal engagement in preparation for complex material. Improvisation practices\, wherein we regard the body as a receptive vessel\, instigate authentic embodiment of both individual and collective creative identities. Class will include phrase material drawn from Burley’s and Springer’s current repertory.\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. Each guest artist conducts a 30-minute technique class/warm-up and then teaches repertory that is performed by the class.\n\nIn 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:Lecture / Discussion:PhonDi Discussion Group
DESCRIPTION:Dave Ogden will discuss \"Positive Attitudes Through Better Understanding: The Role of Perceptual Adaptation in Accent-Based Discrimination.\"\n\nAbstract\nIt has been argued that language\, including accent\, is one of the last domains in which discrimination is widely acceptable\, and that language discrimination is a “back door” to discrimination on other traits like nationality\, ethnicity\, and gender (Lippi-Green\, 2012). Researchers consistently find negative evaluations\, and even linguistic profiling\, of speakers and accents perceived as non-standard (see Lindemann & Subtirelu\, 2013\; Purnell\, Idsardi\, & Baugh\, 1999). Accent discrimination resulting from negative attitudes linked to stereotypes of social groups is well-recognized in sociolinguistic research (Dragojevic & Giles\, 2016\; Gluszek & Dovidio\, 2010). More recently\, researchers have begun to assess how perceptual fluency\, or the effortfulness that listeners feel in understanding accented speech\, affects attitudes towards speakers. Disfluent perception\, the experience associated with effortful information processing\, leads to negative emotions and attitudes toward that information (Alter\, 2013\; Alter & Oppenheimer\, 2009)\, and disfluent perception of an unfamiliar accent leads to negative evaluations of the speaker (Dragojevic & Giles\, 2016). Yet listeners have a robust ability to adapt to and understand highly variable speech patterns\, as shown by improvements in comprehension of non-native speech with listening experience (Baese-Berk\, Bradlow\, & Wright\, 2013\; Bradlow & Bent\, 2008\; Sidaras\, Alexander\, & Nygaard\, 2009). I will present pilot data for an experiment testing the hypothesis that adaptation resulting in more fluent perception will lead to more positive attitudes towards a non-native speaker.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CCG Technologies Seminar: \"Development and Application of a High-Throughput Assay for Homocitrate Synthase\, a Novel Target for Antifungal Drug Design\"
DESCRIPTION:Aspergillus fumigatus is a prevalent fungal pathogen that primarily infects individuals through inhalation of conidia\, which subsequently germinate and send invasive hyphal extensions throughout the lungs\, resulting in clinical bronchopulmonary and invasive aspergillosis. Individuals who are immunocompromised\, such as burn patients\, transplant recipients\, cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy\, and individuals suffering from HIV/AIDS or other immunodeficiency syndromes\, as well as those suffering from chronic lung disease exhibit a higher risker developing aspergillosis. In addition\, asthmatics with fungal hypersensitivity are susceptible to developing allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis or severe asthma with fungal sensitization. Current antifungal therapies are generally unsuitable for the treatment of aspergillosis due to the toxicity and side effects associated with these drugs. These shortcomings underscore an urgent clinical need to develop new antifungal drugs that offer greater efficacy and a lower toxicity profile. One such target for drug development is homocitrate synthase (HCS)\, which catalyzes the first and committed step in fungal lysine biosynthesis. HCS is conserved in A. fumigatus\, but is absent in humans\, rendering it an attractive target for antifungal intervention. Further\, recent studies have demonstrated that HCS is essential to the bronchopulmonary virulence of A. fumigatus\, validating this enzyme as a novel target for antifungal drug design. The overall objective of this proposal is to identify and characterize HCS inhibitors that block the growth of A. fumigatus. Toward this goal\, we have developed a sensitive\, low volume fluorescent assay for HCS and employed this assay to conduct an in vitro high-throughput screen for small molecule inhibitors of A. fumigatus HCS (AfHCS) in the UM Center for Chemical Genomics. This screen has identified over 20 compounds that inhibit AfHCS with IC50 values less than or equal to ten micromolar\, which have been prioritized for testing in fungal growth assays using A. fumigatus clinical isolates. We envision that these compounds will yield chemical probes for studying aspergillosis in cell- and animal-based models and will provide a basis for developing new therapeutics for treating a broad spectrum of bronchopulmonary diseases caused by A. fumigatus.

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:HET Seminar | Causality and Universality at Strong Coupling
DESCRIPTION:Causality imposes constraints on the coupling constants in perturbative effective field theory\, which have played a role in understanding scattering amplitudes\, the a-theorem for renormalization group flows\, and higher curvature corrections in quantum gravity. I will describe similar constraints on strongly interacting theories. In one limit\, these constraints imply the averaged null energy condition\, which links causality to the inequalities obeyed by quantum information. Then\, in large-N conformal field theory\, I'll describe how causality tightly constrains the stress tensor correlation functions\, and points directly toward the emergence of Einstein gravity in the holographic dual.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:SoConDi Discussion Group
DESCRIPTION:Moira Salzman will discuss \"South Korean language policy and the erasure of Jejueo.\"\n\nAbstract\nSouth Korea is considered one of the most linguistically homogenous countries worldwide\, and this image is promulgated by governmental policies\, the educational system\, and linguistic scholars.  In South Korean schools\, the majority of classroom hours are allocated to “correct use of the Korean language” (Song 2012:30) and popular television shows promote prescriptivist grammar and lexicon (Seth 2011:25).  In his oft-cited reference grammar of the Korean language\, Sohn (1999:12) writes\, “Despite [...] geographical and sociopolitical dialectal differences\, Korean is relatively homogenous\, with excellent mutual intelligibility among speakers from different areas.” \nHowever\, Jejueo\, the indigenous language of Jeju Island\, South Korea\, is less than 12% mutually intelligible with Korean (O’Grady 2015).  Jejueo is classified as critically endangered\, with 5\,000 to 10\,000 speakers all over the age of 70 (UNESCO 2010) and language use rapidly shifting to Korean.  The social and economic reforms of the New Village Movement in the 1970s created a diglossia on Jeju Island\, where Jejueo was prohibited from use in the media\, education\, religion and all official capacities.  Recent work on Jejueo language ideologies (Kim 2011\, Kim 2013) suggests that speakers maintain ideologies rooted in the former diglossia\, as Korean is used as a language of “distance and rationality” (Kim 2013).  This paper discusses the possibilities for Jejueo status planning and revitalization within the larger sociohistorical context of Korean language ideologies.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Combinatorics
DESCRIPTION:In 1997 Hirota introduced a discrete dynamical system dKdV that lies conceptually between the classical KdV equation (a PDE) and the box ball system (a cellular automaton).  The most remarkable property of each of these systems is the existence of so-called soliton solutions.  I will describe a new variant on dKdV and explain what its solitons look like.  The system is built out of reduced word dynamics in the affine symmetric group\, with the generators enriched by weights that transform according to the Lusztig relation (a\,b\,c) \mapsto (bc/(a+c)\, a+c\, ab/(a+c)).  This is joint work with P. Pylyavskyy. Speaker(s): Max Glick (U. Connecticut)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Theory
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nWhat makes some strategy-proof mechanisms easier to understand than others? To address this question\, I propose a new solution concept: A mechanism is obviously strategy-proof (OSP) if it has an equilibrium in obviously dominant strategies. This has a behavioral interpretation: A strategy is obviously dominant if and only if a cognitively limited agent can recognize it as weakly dominant. It also has a classical interpretation: A choice rule is OSP-implementable if and only if it can be carried out by a social planner under a particular regime of partial commitment. I fully characterize the set of OSP mechanisms in a canonical setting\, with one-dimensional types and quasi-linear utility. A laboratory experiment tests and corroborates the theory.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Microbial controls on biogeochemical carbon cycling in marine sediments
DESCRIPTION:Marine sediments cover almost ~75% of the Earth’s surface and are one of the largest global reservoirs of organic carbon. Microorganisms play a primary role in the decomposition of organic matter in marine sediments. Consequently\, the activity of these microorganisms can have profound impacts on both local and global biogeochemical cycles. A major question in carbon biogeochemistry is determining what controls the accessibility or bioavailability of organic matter to microorganisms. It is not clear whether microorganisms themselves are ultimately controlling the degradation rate or whether it depends primarily on chemical and physical properties of the compounds and/or the depositional setting and sediment composition. In this presentation\, I will focus on new insights into the dynamics of organic matter degradation using novel isotopic approaches and explore how microbial metabolic potential can influence carbon mobilization in sediments

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Biophysics Seminar: Prof. Edward R. Lyman\, University of Delaware
DESCRIPTION:Department of Physics and Astronomy\n\nAbstract: Your cell membranes are made mostly of lipids\, the class of biological macromolecule that includes fat\, oil\, and wax. This \"lipidome\" is a complex mixture of some 800 different types of lipid\, which changes with your diet and with the administration of lipid synthesis drugs like statins. Altering the lipid composition of a membrane changes its biophysical properties\, such as thermodynamic phase\, fluidity\, viscosity\, and curvature stress. Changes in biophysical properties may in turn affect cellular functions like signaling\, which often relies on the diffusive encounter of membrane-bound receptors. I will give an overview of the state of membrane biophysics\, with a particular focus on recent experimental breakthroughs which admit measurements of lipid diffusion with unprecedented spatiotemporal precision. I will then discuss our own efforts to use modeling approaches in collaboration with experimental colleagues to rationalize lipid and protein spatiotemporal organization in model membranes\, and our plans to extend these approaches to interpret recent measurements on live cell membranes.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Kevin McGowan Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:Kevin McGowan is an Assistant Professor of Linguistics at the University of Kentucky. He will give a talk titled\, \"Subcategorical mismatches can be mismatches of phonetic\, phonological\, lexical\, and social context.\"\n\nAbstract\nWe listen to the world through a filter of our own phonetic\, phonological\, lexical\, and social expectations.  In this talk I will present a pair of experiments that attempt to tease apart theories of listeners’ expectations and the speech signal.  In both experiments\, listeners made lexical decisions in a semantic priming paradigm.  In experiment 1\, long and short voice onset times (VOT) were paired with citation and fast speaking rates to examine the extent to which longer VOTs are more canonical cues to a voiceless stop —more likely to facilitate semantic priming— than shorter VOTs across speech styles.  The results of this study suggest that previous findings\, which argue for the superiority of long VOT in evoking word-initial voiceless percepts in English listeners\, are exaggerated by a mismatch between listener expectations established by a citation speaking rate.  Experiment 2 is a follow-up experiment that investigates whether\, as has been generally assumed\, artificially shortened VOT results in a voiced\, rather than voiceless\, percept for word-initial stops even when all other coarticulatory phonetic cues in the word might indicate voicelessness.  Listeners heard short VOT paired with citation speaking rates in words like ‘coal’ and made lexical decisions about either a voiceless percept consistent word (coal/mine) or a voiced percept consistent word (goal/score).  Surprisingly\, in this task\, artificially short VOT paired with a citation speaking rate word frame resulted in strong semantic priming for voiceless percepts and only weak semantic priming for voiced percepts.  Listeners are sensitive to the subcategorical mismatch in the stimuli\, but even a clear VOT cue does not override the constellation of other coarticulatory cues to voicelessness when long VOT productions are absent from the task.  The message of these experiments is that VOT\, while a cue to the voiced/voiceless distinction in English word-initial stops\, is neither a sufficient nor a necessary cue to perceive this category difference (see also Lisker\, 1996).  Use of this cue depends on social information in the speech signal (implemented here with speaking rate)\, lexical status of the word (whether it has a voiced lexical competitor)\, the relationship to other phonetic cues in the word\, and extrinsic comparison to other productions by the same talker.  I will argue that theories of speech perception and word recognition that do not take all of this contextual information into account during processing risk missing a fundamental property of what it means to be a human and what it is native speakers know when they know a language.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Distinguished University Professor Lecture: June Manning Thomas
DESCRIPTION:Mary Frances Berry Distinguished University Professor of Urban Planning\nCentennial Professor of Urban and Regional Planning June Manning Thomas will give the Mary Frances Berry Distinguished University of Michigan Professor of Urban Planning Lecture at Taubman College. As one of nine faculty members university-wide to receive this top faculty honor this year\, Professor Thomas is also the first faculty member at Taubman College to receive this prestigious designation.\nThomas is a pre-eminent scholar on how racial inequality and disunity have affected the planning\, evolution\, and redevelopment of cities and their neighborhoods. Her work focuses on economically distressed central cities\, addressing issues of planning theory and socialjustice. Her co-edited book Urban Planning and the African American Community: In the Shadows is a path-breaking exploration of key connections between racial injustice and urban planning. Redevelopment and Race: Planning a Finer City in Postwar Detroit won the Association of Collegiate Schools of Planning’s Paul Davidoff Award for urban planning books published in in the area of social justice. She has written or co-edited three additional books related to race and poverty in Detroit and in other depopulated cities in the Midwest as well as dozens of book chapters and articles in scholarly journals. She also has written policy reports for the city of Detroit and the state of Michigan.\nHer recent research explores community development in Detroit and the 1960s civil rights movement in Orangeburg\, South Carolina\, where she helped integrate the local high school. Her research has been widely recognized by numerous academic awards including her election as a Fellow of the American Institute of Certified Planners. She is a prominent and highly effective national advocate for diversity and inclusion of under-represented faculty and students in urban planning academic programs. In 2013 she was named president of the Association of Collegiate Schools of Planning\, where she encouraged greater racial diversity in the nation’s urban planning schools.\nRecognized as an outstanding and inspirational teacher\, Thomas was a founding instructor for the U-M Residential College’s Semester in Detroit program\, teaching at the U-M Detroit Center from 2011 to 2015.  Her graduate course in planning theory is a defining experience for many graduate students\, emphasizing ethics and challenging students to consider how the planning process interacts with and affects disadvantaged communities without access to decision-makers. In recognition of her many contributions in the classroom and of her wider service on behalf of a more inclusive University\, Professor Thomas was awarded the 2014 Harold R. Johnson Diversity Service Award.\nThomas earned her B.A. from Michigan State University in 1970\, with a major in sociology. Awarded Danforth\, National Science Foundation\, and Woodrow Wilson Fellowships\, she entered the doctoral program in the Urban and Regional Planning Program at the University of Michigan\, earning her Ph.D. in 1977 with a dissertation studying the loss of land ownership among African-Americans in South Carolina. She taught at Michigan State University before accepting a position in 2007 as the Centennial Professor in the Urban and Regional Planning Program of the A. Alfred Taubman College Architecture and Urban Planning.\nAbout the award:\nEstablished in 1947\, Distinguished University Professorships recognize full professors for exceptional scholarly or creative achievement\, national and international reputation\, and superior teaching skills. Each professorship bears a name determined by the appointive professor in consultation with her or his dean. Manning Thomas chose to be named the Mary Frances Berry Distinguished University Professor of Urban Planning.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Athi-Patra Ruga at Bona Sera
DESCRIPTION:Exploring the border-zones between fashion\, performance\, and contemporary art\, Athi-Patra Ruga makes work that exposes and subverts the body in relation to structure\, ideology\, and politics.

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.

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:All That Glitters: Magnificence in Art\, Architecture\, and Visual Culture
DESCRIPTION:Keynote speaker: Sally Cornelison\, Syracuse University.\n\nMagnificence has been expressed in any number of forms and for a variety of ends. Broadly conceived\, the word conjures up a diverse menu of associations\, including virtue\, splendor\, largesse\, and majesty on the one hand\, and wealth\, display\, and even decadence on the other. Often magnificence has implied expenditure on a large scale. The term suggests the confluence of materials and performance\, where public acts potentially inscribe on images and objects important social\, economic\, and power relations. The significance embedded in these relations varies depending on historical and cultural circumstances. While the related concepts of materiality and performativity have garnered much recent scholarly attention\, magnificence as a particular meeting point for those two modes of analysis has largely escaped art-historical scrutiny. The 2016 Graduate Symposium\, “All That Glitters: Magnificence in Art\, Architecture\, and Visual Culture\,” hosted by the History of Art Department at the University of Michigan\, will therefore focus on the visual\, historical\, and/or theoretical implications surrounding things made to impress.\n\nSchedule\nThe Space of Magnificence (9:40 am) \nPhilippe L.B. Halbert\, Yale University \n“‘Our Colony Has Today Become Opulent’: Material Magnificence in the French Atlantic World 1660-1789” \n\nElsaris Núñez Méndez\, National Autonomous University of Mexico \n“The Ochavo Chapel: Magnificence\, Sacredness and Religious Legitimacy in the Cathedral of Puebla de los Ángeles (Mexico)” \n\nIdentity and Magnificence (10:55 am) \nRheagan Martin\, University of Michigan \n“Restrained Magnificence: Constructing Female Power in Mantua’s Palazzo Ducale” \n\nMeng Tong\, The University of Kansas \n“The Chime Bells of Marquis Yi of Zeng as a Lieu de Mémoire: Shaping China’s Modern Cultural Identity” \n\nLaura Polucha\, Columbia University \n“Magnificent Mourning: The Subtle Splendor of 19th- and early 20th-Century Mourning Attire” \n\nMaking Magnificence (2:10 pm) \nEmily Anderson\, University of Southern California \n“Magnificent Macabre: The Engravings of the Anatomical Preparations of Frederik Ruysch” \n\nRebecca Gridley\, New York University \n“Luca’s Labors: Luca della Robbia’s Working Methods\, Works\, and Medici Magnificence” \n\nSarah Mills\, The City University of New York \n“Pink Metallic Threads: The Glam of Industrial Design” \n\nKeynote Address (3:40 pm) \nProfessor Sally Cornelison\, Syracuse University\nHometown Glitter: Giorgio Vasari and Church Decoration in Late Renaissance Arezzo\n\nPresented by the Department of History of Art with additional support from the U-M Museum of Art\, Kelsey Museum of Archaeology\, Institute for the Humanities\, the Lieberthal and Rogel Center for Chinese Studies\, Medieval and Early Modern Studies\, the Department of History\, the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\, the Rackham School of Graduate Studies\, the Confucius Institute\, and the Department of Anthropology.

SUMMARY:Community Service:STEM Saturday
DESCRIPTION:STEM stands for Science\, Technology\, Engineering\, and Mathematics. Our main initiative is to improve education in these areas\, especially targeting lower socioeconomic areas of Southeast Michigan. Each semester\, we hold an all day STEM event for high school students from school districts in the surrounding area. This event is an opportunity for us to teach the lesson plans and activities that we have been developing all semester as well as to expose high school students to the diversity of opportunities in STEM fields.  Students are brought to campus during this event via transportation that the club arranges.  Once here\, the students are brought to the USB (Undergraduate Science Building).  STEM club members then deliver 40 min to hour long interactive\, hands-on instructional lessons in Science\, Technology\, Math\, or Engineering related fields.  These lessons are screened ahead of time to ensure that they are engaging\, fun\, and collaborative.  They are designed to follow in the footsteps of Benjamin Franklin who said\, \"Tell me and I forget.  Teach me and I remember.  Involve me and I learn.\"In the past we have had lessons ranging from interactive science lessons with DNA\, to math related mysteries\, designing and customizing computer games through coding\, and car prototypes for engineering exercises.  Join us this semester and showcase your passion for your major by demonstrating all the cool activities and work such a job entails.

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:Nam Center for Korean Studies Conference | Perspectives on Contemporary Korea 2016
DESCRIPTION:This conference\, Korean Families in Economic and Demographic Transitions\,” the sixth in Perspectives on Contemporary Korea series\, aims to bring scholars together to discuss how recent economic and demographic changes have affected parents and children in Korea\, and at the same time how changing family structure and arrangements have also contributed to recent economic and social inequality. In particular\, the conference invites scholars with both quantitative and qualitative approaches to Korean families. On the one hand\, quantitative studies can offer trends and patterns of changing Korean families. On the other hand\, qualitative research can explore subjective meanings\, perceptions\, and experiences of inequality and family changes beneath macro trends and patterns. In collaboration\, these approaches offer the opportunity for better understanding of changing Korean families and surrounding inequalities.\n\nComplete conference information: http://ii.umich.edu/ncks/news-events/events/conferences---symposia/perspectives-on-contemporary-korea/perspectives-on-contemporary-korea-2016---korean-families-in-eco.html

SUMMARY:Exhibition:EXHIBITION OPENING: \"TRIPTYCHS\,\" TERRY SARGENT RETROSPECTIVE
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a strolling brunch as we celebrate the work of Terry Sargent.\nTerry Sargent’s concept sketches\, Barbara Ratner’s renderings\, and Jonathan Hillyer’s architectural photographs illustrating in evolutionary fashion their work in common on seven different commissions\, from initial concepts through built projects\, will be successively displayed—first at the College of Architecture of Georgia Tech and then at the Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning at the University of Michigan.  Atlanta was where Sargent practiced for much of his early career and Taubman was Sargent’s alma mater where he received his Bachelor of Architecture and Master of Urban Planning degrees.\nThe buildings exhibited will be taken from the years when Sargent served as Senior Design Principal of Lord & Sargent (subsequently Lord Aeck Sargent) from 1983 until 2014 and will be illustrated by 2-D physical representations and projected digital media. Written commentary by surviving collaborators will accompany each project. Drafts of three sketch/rendering/photograph “triptychs” are included at the end of this Prospectus which illustrate the character of display boards contemplated.  Organized by Jean Wineman and Christian Unverzagt.

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: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:Exhibition:EXHIBITION ON VIEW: TRIPTYCHS: TERRY SARGENT’S BUILDING DESIGNS IN SKETCHES\, RENDERINGS\, AND PHOTOGRAPHS
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition On View: November 12\, 2016 – January 6\, 2017\nTerry Sargent’s concept sketches\, Barbara Ratner’s renderings\, and Jonathan Hillyer’s architectural photographs illustrating in evolutionary fashion their work in common on seven different commissions\, from initial concepts through built projects\, will be successively displayed—first at the College of Architecture of Georgia Tech and then at the Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning at the University of Michigan.  Atlanta was where Sargent practiced for much of his early career and Taubman was Sargent’s alma mater where he received his Bachelor of Architecture and Master of Urban Planning degrees.\nThe buildings exhibited will be taken from the years when Sargent served as Senior Design Principal of Lord & Sargent (subsequently Lord Aeck Sargent) from 1983 until 2014 and will be illustrated by 2-D physical representations and projected digital media. Written commentary by surviving collaborators will accompany each project. Drafts of three sketch/rendering/photograph “triptychs” are included at the end of this Prospectus which illustrate the character of display boards contemplated.  Organized by Jean Wineman and Christian Unverzagt.

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:Symposium: Ambiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\nAmbiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural is a symposium and concurrent exhibition that situates contemporary discourses and practices of architecture and landscape within the context of the Postnatural\; the era of climate change\, the Anthropocene\, and altered ecologies. The symposium asks: In a time when humans have been fundamentally displaced from their presumed place of privilege\, philosophically as well as experientially\, should the disciplines of architecture and landscape architecture consider displacing themselves as well\, in order to establish new affiliations and avail new ways to approach contemporary questions of design in relation to the environment?\nBy bringing designers and scholars from these fields together the symposium and exhibition will highlight projects and ideas that are engaged with these issues from a variety of perspectives\, ranging from scale and experience to questions of matter. Participants will present research and work that use tactics of mediation to understand\, imagine\, interrupt\, and invent artifacts that exist at the large spatial and slow temporal scale of the Anthropocene.\nAmbiguous Territory will present design ideas and proposals from architects\, artists\, and landscape architects whose work challenges their disciplinary boundaries and long-held anthropocentric orientation and redefines the relationship between built and natural environments in an era of ecological anxiety.\nChairs:       \nKathy Velikov\, Associate Professor at the University of Michigan and principal of RVTR\nCathryn Dwyre\, Visiting Associate Professor at Pratt institute School of Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nChris Perry\, Associate Professor at Rensselaer Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nDavid Salomon\, Assistant Professor of Art History at Ithaca College.\nKeynotes:\nLiam Young\, urbanist\, designer and futurist\; founder of the futures think tank Tomorrows Thoughts Today (tomorrowsthoughtstoday.com)\; the ‘Unknown Fields Division’ (unknownfieldsdivision.com) at the Architectural Association in London\, and the ‘Fiction and Entertainment’ program at SciArc\nDavid Gissen\, author\, historian\, and Professor of Architecture and Visual and Critical Studies at the California College of the Arts and co-director of the Experimental History Project (http://davidgissen.org/)\nFor a full list of speakers and bios\, please visit the Ambiguous Territory symposium web page. \nAmbiguous Territory Symposium Schedule\nAll events in Taubman College Commons unless otherwise noted\nThursday October 5th\n5:00pm\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition Reception\n(Taubman College Gallery)\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: Liam Young\n(Art + Architecture Auditorium)\n \nFriday October 6th (all events occuring in The Commons)\n9:00am\nCoffee\n9:30am\nWelcome: Dean Jonathan Massey\nIntroductory Remarks: Associate Dean of Research and Creative Practice Geoffrey Thün\nSymposium Introduction: Kathy Velikov\n10:00am\nAtmospheric Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Kathy Velikov\nSpeaker 1: Christopher Hight\nSpeaker 2: Lydia Kallipoliti\nSpeaker 3: Sean Lally\nRespondent: Meredith Miller\nRoundtable Discussion\n12:00pm\nLunch Break (lunch not provided)\n1:00pm\nBiologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: David Salomon\nSpeaker 1: Jennifer Peeples\nSpeaker 2: Linsdey french\nSpeaker 3: Ricardo de Ostos\nRespondent: Ellie Abrons\nRoundtable Discussion\n3:00pm\nCoffee Break\n3:30pm\nGeologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Cathryn Dwyre and Chris Perry\nSpeaker 1: Alessandra Ponte\nSpeaker 2: Bradley Cantrell\nSpeaker 3: Rania Ghosn and El Hadi Jazairy\nRespondent: Mark Lindquist\nRoundtable Discussion\n5:30pm\nBreak\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: David Gissen\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition \nSeptember 27th – October 18th 2017\nUniversity of Michigan Taubman College Gallery\nDecember 2018 – January 2019\nPratt Manhattan Gallery\, New York

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

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Louis and Helen Padnos Lecture Series: \"Jews and the Left Reconsidered\"
DESCRIPTION:Jews played highly visible roles\, over an extended period of time\, in the leadership of leftist movements\, and\, in the first half of the twentieth century\, were also evident in the rank-and-file of specific left-wing political parties.  At the present point in time\, however\, left-wing ideas no longer hold the same degree of attraction for Jews as they did seventy five years ago.  The intent of this talk will be both to explore why there were so many Jews sympathetic to left-wing causes in the past\, and the reasons underlying changes in Jewish political opinion.  The relationship of Jews to the left\, Jacobs argues\, was historically contingent\, and cannot be explained\, as others would have it\, either by the purported characteristics of Jews or by the impact of Jewish religious ideas.\n\nJack Jacobs is a professor of political science at John Jay College and the Graduate Center\, City University of New York. He is the author of On Socialists and “the Jewish Question” after Marx (1992)\, Bundist Counterculture in Interwar Poland (2009)\, and The Frankfurt School\, Jewish Lives\, and Antisemitism (2015)\, and is the editor of Jewish Politics in Eastern Europe: The Bund at 100 (2001)\, and\, most recently\, of Jews and the Political Left\, which will be published by Cambridge University Press. Professor Jacobs was a Fulbright Scholar at Tel Aviv University in 1996-1997\, and served as a Fulbright Scholar at the Vilnius Yiddish Institute in 2009.\n\nImage courtesy of the YIVO Institute for Jewish Research\n\nIf you have a disability that requires a reasonable accommodation\, contact the Judaic Studies office at 734-763-9047 at least two weeks prior to the event.

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.

DESCRIPTION:As We Go On is an evening of storytelling that promises to draw you in and never leave you.  Based on real-life experiences\, members of our local LGBTQ+ community will share their stories and hearts.  The performances are funny\, witty\, sad\, infuriating\, uplifting\, and touching.  Join us as we laugh\, cry\, and shine a spotlight on hidden pain and delightful surprises.\n\nThe performance honors the resilience of  LGBTQ+ youth because they need strength and support to survive and where possible\, thrive\, in our society. Here in Washtenaw County\, we would like to believe that we live in an accepting\, affirming\, and diverse community where our young people are exempt from marginalization. But the reality is that teens today\, even in our liberal-leaning Ann Arbor\, still face dangers at schools\, among peers\, and sometimes\, within their own families.

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:Other:The Human Imprint: Exploring the Ernst Pulgram and Frances McSparran Collection
DESCRIPTION:This program is free and open to the public\, but space is limited. Please register to secure your place by emailing umma-program-registration@umich.edu. Please include date and title of program in the subject line of your email. Spanning the eighteenth to early twentieth centuries\, the Ernst Pulgram and Frances McSparran collection of forty-seven works on paper speaks to a tumultuous period in European history\, which saw the outbreak of the two World Wars and increased industrialization. On paper\, these prints\, watercolors\, and drawings by artists such as Piranesi\, Kirchner\, Grosz\, Schiele\, and Klimt depict the continent’s people and places with a focus on the physical and psychological human imprint. However\, these works also encourage a deeper viewing experience that engages with the expressive capacities of line and its ability to articulate the seen\, as well as the unseen\, such as larger socio-political\nand artistic contexts. This talk with exhibition curator Lehti Keelman\, UMMA’s Assistant Curator of Western Art\, will explore this fascinating and wide-ranging collection\, introducing the thematic strands of the exhibition and the range of artistic interpretation.

SUMMARY:Performance:Richard Shindell
DESCRIPTION:Richard Shindell is a New Yorker living in Argentina: a craftsman and a real wizard of song. He's played for coins in the Paris subway\, and he's studied for the priesthood. His gift for profound storytelling songs drew him into the world of folk music. Richard Shindell champions the downtrodden\, exalts the disaffected\, skewers prejudice\, war\, and religious intolerance. He steps into and fully inhabits the various personalities his songs create—some of them female. In the words of No Depression\, \"Shindell tells great stories with an eye for critical detail while never losing sight of the big picture. He works a well-worn stretch of singer-songwriter pavement\, but his wonderfully spiritual lyrical sense and intimate compositions ultimately distinguish him.\" The Valley Advocate in Massachusetts has called Richard Shindell \"the thinking man's folk singer.\"

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.

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

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Symposium: Ambiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\nAmbiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural is a symposium and concurrent exhibition that situates contemporary discourses and practices of architecture and landscape within the context of the Postnatural\; the era of climate change\, the Anthropocene\, and altered ecologies. The symposium asks: In a time when humans have been fundamentally displaced from their presumed place of privilege\, philosophically as well as experientially\, should the disciplines of architecture and landscape architecture consider displacing themselves as well\, in order to establish new affiliations and avail new ways to approach contemporary questions of design in relation to the environment?\nBy bringing designers and scholars from these fields together the symposium and exhibition will highlight projects and ideas that are engaged with these issues from a variety of perspectives\, ranging from scale and experience to questions of matter. Participants will present research and work that use tactics of mediation to understand\, imagine\, interrupt\, and invent artifacts that exist at the large spatial and slow temporal scale of the Anthropocene.\nAmbiguous Territory will present design ideas and proposals from architects\, artists\, and landscape architects whose work challenges their disciplinary boundaries and long-held anthropocentric orientation and redefines the relationship between built and natural environments in an era of ecological anxiety.\nChairs:       \nKathy Velikov\, Associate Professor at the University of Michigan and principal of RVTR\nCathryn Dwyre\, Visiting Associate Professor at Pratt institute School of Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nChris Perry\, Associate Professor at Rensselaer Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nDavid Salomon\, Assistant Professor of Art History at Ithaca College.\nKeynotes:\nLiam Young\, urbanist\, designer and futurist\; founder of the futures think tank Tomorrows Thoughts Today (tomorrowsthoughtstoday.com)\; the ‘Unknown Fields Division’ (unknownfieldsdivision.com) at the Architectural Association in London\, and the ‘Fiction and Entertainment’ program at SciArc\nDavid Gissen\, author\, historian\, and Professor of Architecture and Visual and Critical Studies at the California College of the Arts and co-director of the Experimental History Project (http://davidgissen.org/)\nFor a full list of speakers and bios\, please visit the Ambiguous Territory symposium web page. \nAmbiguous Territory Symposium Schedule\nAll events in Taubman College Commons unless otherwise noted\nThursday October 5th\n5:00pm\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition Reception\n(Taubman College Gallery)\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: Liam Young\n(Art + Architecture Auditorium)\n \nFriday October 6th (all events occuring in The Commons)\n9:00am\nCoffee\n9:30am\nWelcome: Dean Jonathan Massey\nIntroductory Remarks: Associate Dean of Research and Creative Practice Geoffrey Thün\nSymposium Introduction: Kathy Velikov\n10:00am\nAtmospheric Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Kathy Velikov\nSpeaker 1: Christopher Hight\nSpeaker 2: Lydia Kallipoliti\nSpeaker 3: Sean Lally\nRespondent: Meredith Miller\nRoundtable Discussion\n12:00pm\nLunch Break (lunch not provided)\n1:00pm\nBiologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: David Salomon\nSpeaker 1: Jennifer Peeples\nSpeaker 2: Linsdey french\nSpeaker 3: Ricardo de Ostos\nRespondent: Ellie Abrons\nRoundtable Discussion\n3:00pm\nCoffee Break\n3:30pm\nGeologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Cathryn Dwyre and Chris Perry\nSpeaker 1: Alessandra Ponte\nSpeaker 2: Bradley Cantrell\nSpeaker 3: Rania Ghosn and El Hadi Jazairy\nRespondent: Mark Lindquist\nRoundtable Discussion\n5:30pm\nBreak\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: David Gissen\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition \nSeptember 27th – October 18th 2017\nUniversity of Michigan Taubman College Gallery\nDecember 2018 – January 2019\nPratt Manhattan Gallery\, New York

SUMMARY:Exhibition: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.

DESCRIPTION:Join UM professor and 2016 PEN/ESPN Award for Literary Sports Writing recipient Scott Ellsworth for the behind-the-scenes story of what the New York Post called \"a brave moment in basketball\, forgotten to history\, which resonates far beyond the court.\" During World War II\, two college basketball teams in the deeply segregated South- one black and one white--played a secret game against each other in a locked gymnasium. This long hushed-up contest was a daring affront to Jim Crow and marked an important step along the road to civil rights.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Identifying Controls Over Nitrification in a Dynamic Coastal Ocean
DESCRIPTION:The biological reprocessing of organic nitrogen into dissolved inorganic forms\, termed remineralization\, is an important component of the marine nitrogen and carbon cycles. Since inorganic nitrogen availability commonly limits primary production in the ocean\, where and how much nitrogen remineralization takes place in the water column has important feedbacks on oceanic carbon dioxide uptake and carbon sequestration. Despite these important impacts\, our understanding of the factors that determine the magnitude and distribution of nitrogen remineralization rates is severely lacking. Recent molecular\, isotopic and biogeochemical advancements now allow us to study nitrification\, the terminal step in nitrogen remineralization and a significant source of nitrous oxide to the atmosphere\, with unprecedented spatial and temporal resolution. This seminar will focus on experimental and observational efforts to identify the primary controls over nitrification rates in nearshore waters of the central California Current System\, where upwelling establishes strong spatial and temporal gradients in the physicochemical and biological properties of surface waters.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Complex Analysis\, Dynamics and Geometry
DESCRIPTION: It is well known by classical work of Douady and Hubbard that the \"straightening map\" from a baby Mandelbrot set to the original one is a homeomorphism (which explains why the Mandelbrot set contains infinitely many small copies of itself). The corresponding situation for parameter spaces of higher degree polynomials is much more complicated\; there exists a wider variety of parameter space configurations\, and the corresponding straightening maps are typically not as well-behaved. In this talk\, we will consider the tricorn\, the connectedness locus of quadratic antiholomorphic polynomials z^2+c. The tricorn can be viewed as a prototypical object in the parameter spaces of various families of polynomials/rational maps. Our main goal is to demonstrate that every odd period hyperbolic component of the tricorn is the basis of a \"baby tricorn\" (much like the corresponding phenomenon for the Mandelbrot set)\, but the straightening map from any \"baby tricorn\" to the original one is discontinuous. This is the first known example where straightening maps fail to be continuous on a real two-dimensional slice of a holomorphic family of polynomials.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Conversations on Europe. The Austrian Connection: Internationalism\, Empire\, and the Interwar Origins of the War on Drugs
DESCRIPTION:This presentation examines the emergence of the global regime of drug prohibition between the two world wars. The transformation of substances such as cocaine\, heroin\, and marijuana from lightly regulated medical products to strictly controlled and generally illicit goods was not\, as is often argued\, simply an American imposition on the world. Rather\, it grew out of the internationalist aspirations of the League of Nations\, founded at the conclusion of the First World War in order to create a more moral and peaceful form of global politics. The presentation will show how the League of Nations’ drug control system sprang from competing visions for global transformation in the aftermath of the First World War\, including British efforts to revitalize its overseas empire\, an Austrian program to build a new postimperial order from the rubble of the Habsburg Monarchy\, and an American project to transcend European empire in East Asia. \n    \nDavid Petruccelli completed his undergraduate studies at Brown University and his PhD in history at Yale University in 2015. He is currently a postdoctoral fellow at the Diplomatic Academy of Vienna\, where he is working on his manuscript\, “A Scourge of Humanity: International Crime\, Law\, and Policing in Interwar Europe.” He has published articles in the \"Journal of Contemporary History\,\" \"Contemporary European History\,\" and \"Tr@nsit Online\,\" a web journal of the Institute for the Human Science in Vienna.

SUMMARY:Presentation:GCC United Kingdom Info Session
DESCRIPTION:Examine violence and power and their relationship to oil as a non-renewable natural resource on the GCC United Kingdom—Oil\, Development\, and the Discourse of Power program next spring.\n\nIn the winter course\, study the discourses and practices around resource extraction\, resource distribution\, energy security\, and “modernity” in North America\, Africa\, Europe\, the Middle East\, and Latin America. Learn how oil extraction has contributed to reshaping livelihoods and creating spaces of violence as well as “development” and investigate how oil explorations in postcolonial states have given rise to “nation building” projects and profound governance challenges.\n\nDuring your time in London\, conduct unique archival research on the earliest days of British oil exploration in the Middle East and Africa. Trace the political and financial evolution of Williams Darchy into Shell and the Anglo-Persian Oil company into today’s British Petroleum and visit the headquarters of these companies. You will also visit the site of the recently discovered 100 billion barrels oil reserve around London Gatwick airport. The discovery is being celebrated as a way to make the UK energy independent. In the end\, we will ask what will happen when there is no oil.\n\nApplication deadline: December 15\, 2016.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Geometry & Physics
DESCRIPTION:I will talk about the LG/CY correspondence for some simple examples\, mainly elliptic orbifold curves.\n\nIn the first part of my talk I will present the joint work arXiv:1603.02660 with Yefeng Shen about the proof of LG/CY correspondence for elliptic orbifold curves using A-model techniques and modular forms. I will focus on its explanation in terms of change of local trivializations of some vector bundles. Different trivializations of the same section describe generating series in different enumerative theories\, and the transition function is related by modular transformation. This can be regarded as a toy model of Givental's formalism\, but using only elementary tools from the theory of modular forms.\n Speaker(s): Jie Zhou (Perimeter Institute)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Unbiased Constraints from Biased Tracers
DESCRIPTION:Galaxies and galaxy clusters are associated with dark matter halos\, which are biased tracers of the dark matter distribution. The bias is known to depend on halo mass\, and this mass-dependence is sometimes used to constrain galaxy formation models and cosmological parameters. However\, such constraints are biased if mass is not the only thing which matters - a possibility which often goes by the name of Assembly Bias\, because the way in which a halo’s mass was assembled is known to correlate with its environment. I will discuss how the scale dependence of bias - which is generic - can be used to make progress even when assembly bias matters.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Integrable Systems and Random Matrix Theory
DESCRIPTION:This is a continuation of a previous seminar: In this lecture\, we consider the famed doubly-infinite Toda lattice which is completely-integrable. We present the inverse scattering transform method for the solution of the Cauchy initial value problem for sufficiently decaying initial data. As is well known\, the Toda lattice equations can be recast as an isospectral flow on Jacobi matrices and this gives rise to the existence of a Lax pair. Thus we move on to cover scattering theory for Jacobi matrices\, introduce the scattering transform and scattering data associated with a Jacobi matrix. Then we cover the time evolution of the scattering data under the dynamics induced by the Toda lattice equations and present the Riemann-Hilbert formulation of the inverse scattering transform. We review some results on long-time asymptotics of the solutions of the Cauchy initial problem for sufficiently decaying initial data. Time permitting\, we plan to consider Hamiltonian perturbations of the Toda lattice.  Speaker(s): Deniz Bilman (University of Michigan)

DESCRIPTION:(Registration link under \"Web and Social\" at the bottom the page)\n\nPOSITIVE LINKS:\nGain inspiring and practical research-based strategies for building organizations that are high performing and bring out the best in people. Learn from leading positive organizational scholars and connect with our community of academics\, students\, staff\, and leaders.\n\nPositive Links sessions take place at Michigan Ross\, and are free and open to the public.\n\nCAROL RYFF:\nCarol D. Ryff\, PhD\, is Director of the Institute on Aging and Hilldale Professor of Psychology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Her research centers on the study of psychological well-being\, an area in which she has developed multidimensional assessment scales that have been translated to more than 30 different languages and are used in research across diverse scientific fields.  \n\nMore than 500 publications have been generated using her scales of well-being. Investigations by Ryff and colleagues have addressed how psychological well-being varies by age\, gender\, socioeconomic status\, ethnic/minority status\, and cultural context as well as by the experiences\, challenges\, and transitions individuals confront as they age. \n\nWhether psychological well-being is protective of good physical health is also a major interest\, with ongoing longitudinal investigations linking positive psychosocial factors to a wide array of biomarkers (neuroendocrine\, immune\, cardiovascular) as well as to neural circuitry. A guiding theme in much of this inquiry is human resilience – i.e.\, how some individuals are able to maintain\, or regain\, their well-being in the face of significant life challenge and what neurobiology underlies this capacity.      \n\nRyff has generated over 200 publications in the areas described above\, and she currently directs the MIDUS (Midlife in the U.S.) longitudinal study\, which is based on a large national sample of Americans\, including twins. Funded by the National Institute on Aging\, MIDUS has become a major forum for studying health and aging as an integrated biopsychosocial process.  She is also Principal Investigator of MIDJA (Midlife in Japan)\, a parallel to the MIDUS investigation\, for which she received an NIH Merit Award.\n\nHOSTED BY:\nKim Cameron\, co-founder of the Center for Positive Organizations\; William Russell Kelly Chair of Management and Organizations\; Professor of Higher Education\n\nSPONSORS:\nThe Center for Positive Organizations thanks University of Michigan Learning & Professional Development\, Sanger Leadership Center\, Tauber Institute for Global Operations\, Samuel Zell & Robert H. Lurie Institute for Entrepreneurial Studies\, and Diane and Paul Jones (MBA ‘75)\, for their support of the 2016-17 Positive Links Speaker Series.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Combinatorics Seminar
DESCRIPTION:The Erdos-Szekeres conjecture is a well-known conjecture in Ramsey theory and discrete combinatorics. In 1935\, Erdos and Szekeres proved the following: for any positive integer N\, there is a number f(N) such that f(N) points in the plane in general position has a subset of N points that forms the vertices of a convex polygon. Until this year\, the tightest known upper bound for f(N) was O(4^N / N^(1/2)). In 2016\, Andrew Suk nearly settled the conjecture by announcing a proof showing $f(N) = O(2^(N + o(N))$. I will outline the main ideas of Andrew Suk's proof. Speaker(s): Jineon Baek (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Group\, Lie and Number Theory
DESCRIPTION: I will discuss the relation between Langlands functoriality and the theory of algebraic cycles in one of the simplest instances of functoriality\, namely the Jacquet-Langlands correspondence for Hilbert modular forms. In this case\, functoriality gives rise to a family of Tate classes on products of quaternionic Shimura varieties. The Tate conjecture predicts that these classes come from an algebraic cycle\, which in turn should give rise to a compatible Hodge class. While we cannot yet prove the Tate conjecture in this context\, I will outline an unconditional proof of the existence of such a Hodge class and discuss some applications. This is joint work (in progress) with A. Ichino. Speaker(s): Kartik Prasanna (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Mind and Moral Psychology Lecture: Alignment\, de-alignment\, and re-alignment
DESCRIPTION:Human minds traffic in (at least) two kinds of mental representations. We rely on error-driven learning mechanisms to construct increasingly accurate maps of our evaluative landscape\; and we use linguistically-structured representations to broadcast our commitments\, and to create shared understandings of the world that we inhabit. To increase the experience of social fluency\, we engage in numerous acts of supra-personal cognitive control\, to bring our individual understandings of the world into alignment. We teach one another to highlight particular aspects of our evaluative maps\, and to think and speak in ways that signal that convergence. Practices of exclusion\, oppression\, and marginalization can\, and often do stabilize around cultivated feelings of individual and social fluency. But feelings of disfluency can lead us to search for ways of revising our understanding of the world\, and they can lead us to help one another to find ways to shift our patterns of evaluation\, thinking\, and behaving. The trick is to figure out how to dealign\, so we can re-align\, in ways that will open up novel and transformative possibilities. That's no easy task—and I contend that it requires talking\, listening\, and walking together in struggle.

SUMMARY:Performance:Seth Walker
DESCRIPTION:If you're looking for roots music with the grit of Delbert McClinton (who's a big fan) and the detail and insight of Robert Cray\, give Seth Walker a try! This North Carolina-born bluesman has been honing his craft for more than a decade. The son of classical musicians\, Seth grew up on a commune. He played the cello and switched to the guitar\, then to the blues\, after a DJ uncle introduced him to the likes of T-Bone Walker and Snooks Eaglin. The All Music Guide's J. Poet wrote that Seth \"uses the blues as a backbone for tunes that will equally please roots\, Americana\, folk\, pop\, and blues fans. He's a fine guitarist\, but his playing never calls attention to itself\; it's always placed in service of the song and the lyrics crackle with insight and subtle wit.\" Perhaps Country Standard Time said it best: \"If you subscribe to the Big Tent theory of Americana\, then Seth Walker —with his blend of blues\, gospel\, pop\, R&B\, rock\, and a dash country—just might be your poster boy.\" Seth was the MC for both nights of the 2014 Ann Arbor Folk Festival. He comes to Michigan with a new release\, \"Gotta Get Back.\"

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.

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: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:Workshop / Seminar:Health\, History\, Demography & Development (H2D2)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThe willingness of firms to provide general training to workers depends on the productivity gains from training and the likelihood that workers are retained. We evaluate the impacts of training in soft skills development on the workplace outcomes of female garment workers in Bengaluru\, India. We implemented a lottery determining access to the program by randomizing lines and then workers within lines to treatment\, which allows us to capture treatment effects and program spillovers. We find that despite a high overall turnover rate\, more treated workers are retained during the training period\; this difference disappears after training is complete. Treated workers are 12 percent more productive than controls. Within-team spillovers in productivity and task complexity are sub- stantial. Survey outcomes support the hypothesis that the program increased the stock of soft skills\, which raised workers’ marginal products. Wages increase by 0.5 percent after program completion. Pairing our point estimates with program costs\, we calculate that the net return to on-the-job soft skills training for garment workers is large – about 250 percent 9 months after program completion.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | China and Europe in Global Economic History: From Europe’s Divergence to China’s Convergence
DESCRIPTION:This talk explores two basic roles of European political economy that deliberately and unintentionally resulted in the ‘great divergence’ and contrast this set of dynamics with the contemporary possibilities for Chinese political economy to harness its domestic developmental aspirations to a transformation of Eurasian economies from its own borders all the way into Europe.\n\nR. Bin Wong is Distinguished Professor of History and since 2004 Director of the Asia Institute at UCLA. His research has examined Chinese patterns of political\, economic and social change both within Asian regional contexts and compared with more familiar European patterns\, as part of the larger scholarly efforts underway to make world history speak to contemporary conditions of globalization. He is author\, co-author\, and editor of several books\, including \"China Transformed: Historical Change and the Limits of European Experience\" (Cornell University Press 1997) and (with Jean-Laurent Rosenthal) \"Before and Beyond Divergence: The Politics of Economic Change in China and Europe\" (Harvard University Press 2011)\, along with some one hundred articles published in North America\, East Asia and Europe. Since 2009 he has been a Distinguished Guest Professor at the Fudan University Institute for Advanced Study in Social Sciences. He also serves on the International Advisory Board of the Consortium of Humanities Centers and Institutes and on the Berggruen Center on Philosophy and Culture Academic Board. As a scholar working in four languages\, Director Wong is acutely aware of the challenges of translation and comparative work. His decades of research on economic history and teaching in the U.S. and China have confirmed the necessity of studying development economics and political development in historical perspective in order to gain new insights.

SUMMARY:Performance:Beth Graczyk Teaching Residency: Performance Improvisation
DESCRIPTION:Beth Graczyk is a New York-based dance artist and scientist whose research bridges the worlds of dance and science through inquiry into the creative process and its ramifications on societal issues and outcomes. She works as both a choreographer/performer and a published scientist. She writes: “Sustaining a dual-career as a dance artist and a published scientist\, I attempt to live in-between systems\, not adhering fully to any set of proposed rules\, values or constructs and at the risk of being unseen\, irrelevant\, or dismissed for non-adherence. Moving between these spaces allows me to use one system to observe and understand another.” Each master class addresses dance/ theater creation and improvisation\, along with discussion of performance research and ways that the creative process in the sciences merge and cross-pollinate with dance-making. \n\nSponsored by the Department of Dance\, Center for Research\, Learning and Teaching and Course Connections

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:\nNew initiatives to create longitudinal linkages from historical datasets are transforming the study of U.S. economic and demographic history. This paper uses two ground truth samples to provide new evidence on the performance of four automated record-linking algorithms and two commonly used phonetic name-cleaning methods\, Soundex and NYSIIS\, in historical samples. Our results show high match rates for each algorithm\, but we document important shortcomings of each. First\, no method (including the ground truth) appears representative of the underlying population. Second\, the incidence of type I errors are distressingly high in samples generated by automated methods\, ranging from 19 percent to 81 percent. Third\, the use of phonetic name cleaning universally increases type I errors by 60 to 100 percent. Finally\, erroneous links are strongly correlated with baseline sample characteristics\, suggesting that systematic measurement error introduced by different automated linking methods could have substantial (and difficult to sign) effects on parameter estimates. As an illustration\, we show that different linking methods are associated with very different estimates of intergenerational income elasticities for the 1920 to 1940 period\, ranging from 0.33 to a statistical zero. We conclude with constructive suggestions for improving automated methods without using clerical review or genealogical methods.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:European Horizons Lecture. Europe’s Crisis of Legitimacy: Governing by Rules and Ruling by Numbers in the Eurozone
DESCRIPTION:Although \"Brexit\" and the refugee crisis have grabbed the headlines\, the Eurozone crisis also continues to be of major concern for the European Union. The EU’s comparatively poor economic performance and increasingly volatile politics have combined with its focus on \"governing by the rules and ruling by the numbers\" in the Eurozone to generate a crisis of democratic legitimacy. Prof. Schmidt theorizes about this legitimacy crisis in terms of problems with \"output\" policies\, \"input\" politics\, and \"throughput\" processes. She argues that in response to such problems\, EU institutional actors—ECB\, Council\, Commission\, and EP—all incrementally reinterpreted the rules and recalibrated the numbers \"by stealth\,\" that is\, without admitting it in their public discourse. To theorize about such processes of ideational innovation and discursive legitimation during the Eurozone crisis\, Prof. Schmidt uses the neo-institutionalist framework of discursive institutionalism. \n\nVivien A. Schmidt is Jean Monnet Professor of European Integration\, professor of international relations and political Science\, and founding director of the Center for the Study of Europe at Boston University. Her research focuses on European political economy\, institutions\, democracy\, and political theory. Recent books include \"Resilient Liberalism in Europe’s Political Economy\" (co-edited\, 2013)\, \"Debating Political Identity and Legitimacy in the European Union\" (co-edited\, 2011)\, \"Democracy in Europe\" (2006)—named in 2015 by the European Parliament as one of the 100 Books on Europe to Remember—and \"The Futures of European Capitalism\" (2002). Schmidt has been a visiting professor at LUISS Guido Carli University in Rome and at the Copenhagen Business School. She has also been a visiting professor or scholar at Sciences Po in Paris\, the Free University of Berlin\, the Free University of Brussels\, the European University Institute\, Oxford University\, Cambridge University\, and Warwick University\, among others. She is past head of the European Union Studies Association (EUSA) and sits on the advisory boards of the Wissenschaft Zentrum Berlin\, the Vienna Institute for Peace\, and the Foundation for European Progressive Studies (Brussels). She has published ten books\, over 100 scholarly journal articles or chapters in books\, and numerous policy briefs and comments\, most recently on the Eurozone crisis. Her current work focuses on democratic legitimacy in Europe\, with a special focus on the challenges resulting from the Eurozone crisis\, and on methodological theory\, in particular on the importance of ideas and discourse in political analysis (discursive institutionalism).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Geometry/Topology
DESCRIPTION:In 1968\, Hormander introduced the notion of Fourier integral operators and used techniques of microlocal analysis to study the asymptotics of wave kernel $U(t) = exp(-itA)$ associated to a classical elliptic self-adjoint pseudo-differential operator A of order 1 on a compact manifold M for small times\, and obtained an improved estimate for the spectral function\, when $A = \sqrt{-\triangle}$\, the square root of Laplace operator on the compact manifold M\, this estimate for the spectral function can be used to improve the error term in the Weyl law describing the asymptotics of counting function of eigenvalues of the Laplacian. \n\nIn this talk\, I will start by introducing pseudo-differential operators on Manifolds\, discuss a few essential properties\, then sketch a proof of Hormander's estimate for the spectral function using the parametrix for the wave kernel.\n\n Speaker(s): Punya Satpathy (UM)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:\"Disability and the Destruction of Jerusalem: Gender\, Sex\, and Flesh in Rabbinic Narrative\"
DESCRIPTION:This lecture examines rabbinic tales of the destruction of Jerusalem through the lens of scarred and wounded flesh. Rabbinic accounts of Roman conquest are saturated with sexual violence\, enslavement\, and the brutal corporeal cost of imperial ambition. Bringing disability studies\, gender and sexuality studies\, and feminist materialist theory to bear on rabbinic narrative\, this lecture argues that disability affords the rabbis a potent symbolic discourse with which to think through the ruin of Jerusalem. Yet even as the rabbis use disablement to expresses trauma and violation\, disabled figures also flip the conventional script of loss and vulnerability. At the same time that subjugated bodies bear the material costs of opposition to Roman dominance\, these very bodies can also become potent sites of resistance\, sites through which communities can critique colonial power—and articulate the subversive potency of dissident bodies that refuse to perform as desired beneath the imperial regime.\n\nJulia Watts Belser is Assistant Professor of Jewish Studies in the Theology Department at Georgetown University. She studies rabbinic Jewish culture in late antiquity\, with expertise in disability studies\, gender and sexuality studies\, queer theory\, and ecological criticism. She is the author of Power\, Ethics\, and Ecology in Jewish Late Antiquity: Rabbinic Responses to Drought and Disaster (Cambridge University Press\, 2015). Her current book project\, Corporeal Catastrophe: Gender\, Sex\, and Disability in Rabbinic Stories of Destruction\, will be forthcoming from Oxford University Press. A passionate lecturer and teacher\, Belser held a visiting faculty fellowship in the Women’s Studies and Religion at Harvard Divinity School and previously taught in the Religious Studies Department at Missouri State University. She received her Ph.D. in Jewish Studies from UC Berkeley and the Graduate Theological Union\, as well as rabbinic ordination from the Academy of Jewish Religion California.\n\nSponsored by Jean & Samuel Frankel Center for Judaic Studies and University of Michigan Initiative for Disability Studies.\n\nIf you have a disability that requires a reasonable accommodation\, contact the Judaic Studies office at 734-763-9047 at least two weeks prior to the event.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | The Cyanobacterial Circadian Clock\, from Test Tube to Cell
DESCRIPTION:All plants and animals and many unicellular organisms possess circadian clocks-autonomous oscillators with a roughly 24 hour period that allow them to anticipate daily cycles of light and dark. I will discuss recent progress on understanding one such biological clock\, in the photosynthetic bacterium S. elongatus. This system has the remarkable feature that the core biochemical oscillator can be reconstituted in vitro with only three purified proteins. Thus\, unlike almost all other circadian clocks studied to date\, it requires neither transcription nor translation but functions entirely post-translationally. After reviewing what we know about how the in vitro oscillator functions\, as well as a few outstanding puzzles\, I will turn my attention to the implications of this understanding for clock function in the living cell. In particular\, I will argue that the core post-translational oscillator is necessary to make the clock robust to several perturbations present in any growing\, dividing cell\, but that other specific adaptations are also required. These include negative feedback on the transcription of clock components and the presence of several identical copies of the bacterial chromosome in the same cell. I will conclude by suggesting that\, far from being an isolated case\, the workings of the circadian clock built entirely on protein modifications actually point the way towards a new understanding of a number of other oscillatory biological systems\, which can all be thought of as examples of a new class of \"molecular synchronization oscillators.\"

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:DAAS Africa Workshop: An Empire of Morals Revisited: Universalism\, Rights Talk and Cosmopolitan Imaginaries
DESCRIPTION:Grovogui is a professor of international relations theory and law.\n\nTeaching Interests\nI have two discrete teaching interests. My undergraduate courses are strictly confined to themes in international and global politics that either highlight dimensions applicable to Africa (including their modes of differentiation\, hierarchies\, and the racial and regional axes along which they can be erected)\; or African contributions and elucidation on the central themes of global politics: international community\, sovereign rights\, global justice\, and moral subjectivity.\n\nMy graduate courses are more directly in line with my research interests in 1) International Relations Theory\; 2) Political theory and 3) African Thought.\n\nIn this latter instance\, my teaching necessarily involves examination of politics and political thoughts in light of advances in historiography\, ethnography\, and hermeneutics. I am not confined by disciplines. Rather the subject of analysis compels its own methodologies and modes of interrogation. I am therefore open to students and interlocutors interested in African-related themes from any number of philosophical\, literary\, artistic\, or political traditions with one proviso: that the end is to reflect on African contributions to global debates on the nature of politics in the national and global orders. With the support of a number of my colleagues (among them Profs. Taiwo\, Grant\, Hassan\, and Gaines)\, I hope to attract students interested in literary\, philosophical\, legal\, and political discourses bearing on African existence\, no matter the modes of polemicity and evidence. Our focus remains African reflections on the purpose of ethical life and moral existence associated with the African past and present\, most certainly modernity and its political\, moral\, and material economies.\n\nLanguages Spoken\nEnglish and French\n\nDEPARTMENTS/PROGRAMS\nAfricana Studies and Research Center\nGRADUATE FIELDS\nAfricana Studies\nGovernment\nResearch\nGrovogui is currently completing two manuscripts. The first (nearly completed) manuscript is titled “Otherwise Human: Human and Humanitarian Rights Traditions.” It explores modern idioms and languages that give expression to the ‘human’ as an actualization of moral choices and ethical commitments to others. In this regard\, it is deeply indebted to theology and ecclesiastic law\, modern idioms of the human as well as related languages of faculties\, capacities\, and rights received their assumed form between the Renaissance and the Enlightenment. Consistently\, it recognizes the role of the late-18th century and early 19th century revolutions in the US\, France\, and Haiti in giving constitutional substance to the idea of human rights through legal guarantees of association public freedoms (civil rights) and private liberties. Beyond the significances attributed to these revolutions\, this manuscript explores the extent to which their encoded freedoms\, rights and liberties informed social movements and cultural and political revolutions around the world. A central claim of this manuscript is that alongside the above traditions there emerge other discrete forms either in direct competition or as complement that nonetheless significantly bolstered the idea of protected human faculties and capacities. The Haitian revolution served as segue to my arguments in this second regard. It is my contention that Haiti revolutionaries belonged also to traditions of civil rights and civil liberties that arose directly from slave societies and extended to anti-colonial movements of self-determination. This traditions – and the related conceptions of civil liberties and civil rights – began with the establishment of Quilombo dos Palmares in Brazil (ca. 1605-1694) with Quilombolas’ attempt to define the terms of freedom and civil existence. I am drawn to Quilombolas' imagining of the terms of life\, the end of purpose of civil existence\, and corresponding institutions. It is significant in this latter that they ‘remembered’ Africa in manners that would also appear in anti-colonial texts. The purpose of the manuscript in this regard to re-open a number of questions\, often imagined already settled\, on modernity\, modern life\, and modern subjectivity\, alongside questions of universalism and relativism and the operations of time and space on the terms and norms of modern existence. Hence. The aim of the book is to bypass the instrumentalization of human rights discourses in favor of an inquiry into genealogies of conceptions of the human and protected faculties beyond the West that flow from the imaginaries and experiences of colonial and postcolonial populations (in the African diaspora) and thus shaped their dispositions toward and expectations of humanitarianism and human rights laws as they relate to the so-called responsibility to protect and humanitarian interventions.\n\nMy second book manuscript (furthest from completion) is the rubric of “Future Anterior: A Genealogy of International Relations and Society”. It examines the ‘past’ of international relations with particular regard to the identities\, values\, and roles of multiple agents\, subjects\, and actors in bringing about international society.  While it extensively discusses the institutionalization of Western power\, interests\, and identity in IR discourses\, the project also makes a case for a separation of the historically expressed Western wills\, desires\, and subjectivities from those projected or embraced by other constituent members of international society.  Specifically\, the project reconsiders the idea of ‘international relations\,’ particularly its manifestation as a field of study\, in light of postcolonial contestations of modern subjectivity and resulting identities and political economies.   Related ‘findings’ are the bases for envisaging a new ethics as well as future political possibilities. The combined purpose of the two projects is to both broaden disciplinary conventions and bring to the fore ideas and intellectual resources of hitherto marginalized actors.\n\nFinally\, I have also completed a ten-year long study of the rule of law in Chad\, in the context of the Chad Oil and Pipeline Project\, funded partly by the National Science Foundation. I hope when I am able to turn my attention to writing up the project to use data opened in the concrete context of Chad to make significant observations on neoliberal applications of the rule of law in Africa as well as the place of Africa in the global political economy.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:JOHN DERBY EVANS LECTURE presents Digital Doors: Access\, Disability\, 
and Emerging Technologies
DESCRIPTION:While conventional wisdom holds that new media technologies have enabled new forms of creative\, political\, and interpersonal communication\, these same technologies may exclude people with disabilities and others. As one door opens\, another may shut.\n\nPresenting research from her new book\, Restricted Access: Media\, Disability\, and the Politics of Participation (NYU 2016)\, Ellcessor argues that understanding new media technologies requires us to understand perspectives from the margins. Policies\, industries\, cultural norms\, and granular interactions have created a context in which Americans with disabilities are much less likely to be users (let alone creators) of networked technologies and digital media. This\, ultimately\, is a problem of access.\n\nThis talk will problematize the concept of \"access\,\" illustrating its many connotations in various policy\, academic\, and grassroots contexts. Ellcessor ultimately theorizes access as an intersectional phenomenon that is repeatedly and variably produced. Yet\, if access cannot be taken for granted\, how do we study it? How do we know who \"has\" access? How to we \"give\" access to those who may not have it? Using cultural and disability studies frameworks\, Ellcessor proposes research questions that prioritize the conditions surrounding experiences of access. She then uses these tools to explore digital media accessibility for Americans with disabilities\; technologies have both empowered and excluded these users\, and disabled users have\, in turn\, produced interventions that create access and challenge received wisdom about the value\, uses\, and role of new media in everyday life.\n\nElizabeth Ellcessor is an Assistant Professor of Cinema and Media Studies at Indiana University – Bloomington. Her research focuses on digital media\, disability\, media access\, and performances of online identity.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Colloquium Series
DESCRIPTION:Geometric Quantization is a program of assigning to Classical mechanical systems (Symplectic manifolds and the associated Poisson algebras of $C^\infty$ functions) their quantizations --- algebras of operators on Hilbert spaces.  Geometric Quantization has had many applications in Mathematics and Physics.   Nevertheless the main proposition at the heart of the theory\, invariance of polarization\, though verified in many examples\, is still not proved in any generality.  This causes numerous conceptual difficulties:  For example\, it makes it very difficult to understand the functoriality of theory.\n\nNevertheless\, during the past 20 years\, powerful topological and geometric techniques have clarified at least some of the features of the program.\n\nIn 1995 Kontsevich showed that formal deformation quantization can be extended to Poisson manifolds.  This naturally raises the question as to what one can say about Geometric Quantization in this context.  In recent work with Victor Guillemin and Eva Miranda\, we explored this question in the context of Poisson manifolds which are \"not too far\" from being symplectic---the so called b-symplectic or b-Poisson manifolds---in the presence of an Abelian symmetry group.\n\nIn this talk we review Geometric Quantization in various contexts\, and discuss these developments\, which end with a surprise. Speaker(s): Jonathan Weitsman (MIT and Northeastern University)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Writer to Writer with special guest Philip Deloria
DESCRIPTION:Sweetland Center for Writing's Writer to Writer series lets you hear directly from University of Michigan professors about their challenges\, processes\, and expectations as writers and also as readers of student writing. Each semester\, Writer to Writer pairs one esteemed University professor with a Sweetland faculty member for a conversation about writing.\n\nThis month Writer to Writer welcomes Phil Deloria. Philip J. Deloria is the Carroll Smith-Rosenberg Collegiate Professor in the College of Literature\, Science and the Arts at the University of Michigan\, where he has appointments in the Departments of History and American Culture and the Programs in Environment and Native American Studies. He received his Ph.D. in American Studies from Yale University in 1994\, and came to Michigan in 2001\, following six years at the University of Colorado\, Boulder. Professor Deloria’s research focuses on the social\, cultural and political histories of the relations between American Indians and the United States. His prizewinning 1998 book Playing Indian\, traced “Indian play” from the Boston Tea Party to the New Age movement\, while his 2004 book Indians in Unexpected Places\, examined the ideologies surrounding Indian people in the early twentieth century and the ways Native Americans challenged them through sports\, travel\, automobility\, and film and musical performance. He is in the process of completing American Studies: A User's Guide\, which surveys methods of interpretation and writing\, and Toward an American Indian Abstract\, an extended piece of art criticism.\n\nWriter to Writer takes place at the Literati bookstore and are broadcast live on WCBN radio. These conversations offer students a rare glimpse into the writing that professors do outside the classroom. You can hear instructors from various disciplines describe how they handle the same challenges student writers face\, from finding a thesis to managing deadlines. Professors will also discuss what they want from student writers in their courses\, and will take questions put forth by students and by other members of the University community. If there's anything you've ever wanted to ask a professor about writing\, Writer to Writer gives you the chance.

SUMMARY:Performance:Blue Rodeo w/sg Devin Cuddy
DESCRIPTION:In the beginning critics scrambled to describe Blue Rodeo’s sound\, comparing them to everyone from the Flying Burrito Brothers to the Eagles and the Beatles. Today\, Blue Rodeo is compared to no one. They are the standard to which other bands are now compared. Ever-evolving\, Blue Rodeo’s creativity has endured a lifetime of challenges\, and the band continues to make music that all Canadians can call their own\, and that has defined the idea of alternative country for the whole world. In 2014 Blue Rodeo hit the road and showcased their In Our Nature album with a lengthy tour across the country featuring two sets and almost three hours of music. Fans and critics alike were astounded by the muscle and passion the band continues to possess 27 years after the release of their debut\, Outskirts\, in 1987. Here's a rare intimate chance to hear a legendary presence on the Canadian and world scene.

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.

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:Workshop / Seminar:Causal Inference in Education Research Seminar (CIERS)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nWhile few measurable characteristics are correlated with a teacher's effectiveness at improving students' exam scores\, teachers do often gain in effectiveness as they accumulate experience\, particularly in their first few years of teaching. The distribution of teacher quality is already stacked against students of color and economically disadvantaged students\; if these students are also exposed to more teacher turnover\, this will only perpetuate inequities in the educational system. Using administrative data on teachers hired in Michigan public schools between 2004 and 2009\, we seek to determine what characteristics of schools\, students\, and teachers might predict whether a teacher will leave his or her first teaching job and for what type of new position\, if applicable. We begin with a multinomial logit framework in which we compare the probabilities of several different turnover outcomes against the base case of a teacher staying in his or her first job for five years\; we continue by using a survival analysis framework to look more closely at year-by-year transitions. In line with other studies of teacher turnover such as Boyd et al. (2002) and Clotfelter et al. (2006)\, we find that teachers are more likely to leave schools with more black students and more low-performing students\; we also find that teachers at charter schools are more likely to leave than their counterparts at traditional public schools.

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:Class / Instruction:Why Are We Sending Innocent People to Prison?
DESCRIPTION:The discovery of DNA has exposed awful errors in our criminal justice system. Almost 1\,800 people serving time in prison have been exonerated.  Who are they and how did this happen? \n\nLast year alone five people on death row were exonerated while waiting to be executed.  The Hon. Donald E. Shelton\, Director of the Criminology and Criminal Justice Program at UM Dearborn explores how these innocent people ended up in prison and what changes need to be made to prevent such miscarriages of justice in the future.\n\nThis study group for those 50 and over will meet for 90 minutes on Wednesday\, November 16.

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:Presentation:Bonderman Info Session (CGIS Office)
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\nThe Bonderman info sessions in the CGIS office are back-to-back sessions without additional time for questions after the allotted 30 minutes.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Brown Bag Seminar | A Hot Metallic Hydrogen Cloud Around QCD Axion Stars
DESCRIPTION:Axion stars are compact\, dense clumps of axions that can form during the cosmological evolution of the universe. Given their small size\, their effects on cosmological observables are negligible. We demonstrate that primordial axion stars can accumulate a cloud of baryons. Furthermore\, this cloud of baryons could reach a sufficiently dense state that it can burn axions and become hot. This leads to potential point source observables with a blackbody spectrum peaked over a range of frequencies depending on the axion star properties.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Bonderman Info Session (CGIS Office)
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\nThe Bonderman info sessions in the CGIS office are back-to-back sessions without additional time for questions after the allotted 30 minutes.

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:Student Arithmetic
DESCRIPTION:A rigid-analytic space is an analytic variety over a non-archimedean field\, e.g. the p-adic rationals. Pioneered by Tate in the early 1960's in order to construct uniformizations of certain elliptic curves\, the theory has found many striking applications in arithmetic and algebraic geometry. I will discuss the basic theory of rigid spaces and explain their relationship to schemes\, Berkovich spaces\, and formal geometry. Speaker(s): Matt Stevenson (UM)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:ASP Lecture | 'It Seems to Belong to Dreamland Rather than Reality': HFB Lynch and the Making of 'Armenia'
DESCRIPTION:HFB Lynch’s \"Armenia: Travels and Studies\" (1901) is a text regularly referenced but less often fully examined and interrogated. This lecture will discuss the processes behind the production of Lynch’s book and the events\, ideas\, themes and tropes that informed his vision of ‘Armenia’\, with particular emphasis on photographs and image-making practice. Often the images found in travelogues are considered organic\, neutral pieces of reality\, yet a close examination of their construction and deployment can help us to understand the role they play in the creation of a particular image of a place. An understanding of the manner in which the lens presents human geography\, natural landscape and the built environment not only allows us to comprehend a writer’s standpoint\, but in Lynch’s case it also acts as an enlightening guide as we consider wider practices of ‘dreaming’ the nation in the Near East.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | Lens vs Algorithm: Optical Imaging in the Age of Computers
DESCRIPTION:Optical elements may be thought of as effecting a linear transformation of the optical field. Given access to the field\, those same transformations\, and many more\, may be performed with a computer and so hardware may be replaced with software. I will mainly discuss the application of this idea in optical coherence tomography (OCT) where we have replaced complicated hardware with physics-based algorithms to produce a high-resolution 3-d imaging system with infinite depth of field in a compact form factor. I will give examples of the method in use in biological systems and results from a recent clinical trial in breast cancer. \n\nBio: Prof Carney holds a BS in Engineering Physics from UIUC (1994)\, and a PhD in Physics from the University of Rochester (1999).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Macroeconomics
DESCRIPTION:We develop a dynamic equilibrium model of complex asset markets with endogenous entry and exit in which the investment technology of investors with more expertise is subject to less asset-specific risk. The joint equilibrium distribution of financial expertise and wealth then determines this asset market’s risk bearing capacity. Higher expert demand lowers equilibrium required returns\, reducing overall participation. In a dynamic industry equilibrium\, investor participation in more complex asset markets with more asset-specific risk is lower\, despite higher market-level Sharpe ratios\, as long as asset complexity and expertise are complements. We analyze how asset complexity affects the stationary wealth distribution of complex asset investors. Because of selection\, increased complexity reduces expertise heterogeneity and wealth concentration\, even though the wealth distribution for more expert investors has fatter tails.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Moving from Career Success to Retirement Success
DESCRIPTION:For those anticipating retirement in the next 24 months\, this six-session group on preparing for a satisfying retirement will combine exploration of relevant topics with creative expression and supportive discussion. The focus of this group will be on the transition of retirement and the challenges that come with it -- from questions like \"How will I define myself?\" to “How will I establish priorities and spend my time?”\n\nThe series will help you plan for the non-financial aspects of retirement\, such as redefining who you are\, revisiting what is most important to you\, exploring new interests and opportunities\, and maintaining social connections. You will also learn about what researchers find makes for a fulfilling retirement.\n \nThis series has the capacity for 14 participants\, and is open to all U-M staff\, faculty and students\, as well as the general public.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Algebraic Geometry
DESCRIPTION:There are not many known examples of compact irreducible hyperkahler manifolds. Two series of examples appear in dimension 2n\, for every n>1\, and are related to the Hilbert scheme of points on a K3 or an abelian surface\; and in dimension 6 and 10 there is one extra\, or exceptional\, deformation class\, each of which was found by O'Grady. While considerable work has been devoted to studying hyperkahler manifolds belonging to the first two deformation classes\, not much is known for the exceptional deformation classes. In this talk I will present joint work with Giovanni Mongardi and Antonio Rapagnetta\, regarding the geometry of O'Grady's six dimensional example. By realizing these examples as \"quotients\" of another hyperkahler manifold by a birational involution\, we are able to compute the Hodge numbers and\, in work in progress\, also study properties of their moduli spaces/deformation class.\n Speaker(s): Giulia Sacca (Stony Brook University)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Analysis/Probability
DESCRIPTION:The problem  of uniform tessellation of the unit sphere  (or its subsets) by hyperplanes\, or equivalently\, almost isometric embeddings of subsets of the sphere into the Hamming cube\, has been raised in the work of Plan and Vershynin. It asks for the smallest number of hyperplanes\, such that the induced Hamming distance (i.e. the proportion of hyperplanes that separate the two given points) uniformly approximates the geodesic distance. The setup of this question naturally relates it to the so-called  one-bit compressed sensing.  In the joint work with Michael Lacey we adopt two new points of view on this problem. First\, we look at it through the prism of empirical processes and find that the bounds may be controlled in terms of the supremum of the \"hemisphere process\" (rather than the more standard Gaussian width).\nIn particular\, we establish one-bit analogs of classical results (e.g.\, the Johnson--Lindenstrauss lemma)\, which may be roughly summarized as: theoretically\, one-bit sensing is just as good as the standard compressed sensing. Furthermore\, we observe that the question of uniform tessellation may be rephrased as a problem about geometric discrepancy\, thus introducing tools and ideas from  this field. This allows us to show that\, in the asymptotic case\, ``jittered sampling\" performs better than a random choice of hyperplanes. Speaker(s): Dmitriy Bilyk (University of Minnesota)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Science Café: Has Particle Physics Fizzled?
DESCRIPTION:In 2012\, physicists at large particle accelerators such as the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) found evidence of the Higgs boson\, long predicted by the Standard Model in physics. Hooray!  But since then\, they have yet to find evidence of other so-called supersymmetrical particles\, which theorists predict because they would help to explain dark matter and the \"unnatural\" mass of the Higgs particle.  The lack of new particles is puzzling. If supersymmetry is out\, what then? If we discover no new particles beyond the Higgs boson with our huge accelerators\, is that a discovery in itself?  Join us as we discuss this possibility\, which some popular articles have dubbed a \"nightmare scenario.\" Speakers include Dante Amidei\, U-M Professor of Physics\, and Aaron Pierce\, U-M Professor of Physics and Director of the Michigan Center for Theoretical Physics.\n\nScience Cafés provide an opportunity for audiences to discuss current science topics with experts in an informal setting. Hors d’oeuvres at 5:30 p.m.\;program 6:00-7:30 p.m.  \n\nSeating is limited - come early.  All Science Cafés take place at Conor O’Neill’s Traditional Irish Pub\, 318 South Main Street\, Ann Arbor.

DESCRIPTION:This show brings together two of today's great alternative songwriters in a unique double bill! Dave Simonett and Carl Broemel will share a band but will perform separate sets and will appear together. Dave Simonett and Carl Broemel connected by sharing the stage. Simonett (vocals and guitar for Trampled By Turtles) met Bromel (guitarist for My Morning Jacket) when Trampled By Turtles opened for My Morning Jacket. As Broemel ventured into his solo project\, TBT welcomed him to open their shows. With Carl's second solo album\, \"4th of July\,\" about to appear\, the two decided to hit the road for a string of intimate shows. These two bands have always been all about the songs\, and now new music from their frontmen takes center stage at The Ark!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Avian Vessels: Mixed Media Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Cincinnati based sculptor Karen Heyl has been professionally sculpting stone since 1984. She is best known for bas-relief limestone sculptures\, but in 2011 she developed an interest in sculpting clay using a similar relief carving technique. Out of this came an artistic exploration and refinement of birds using ceramic vessels as the starting point. Whimsical additions such as tails and beaks give each bird an individual personality. Each bird is perched on an individually carved limestone base to enhance the unique qualities that each bird displays. Heyl’s affinity for nature extends from her art to her love of gardening and the occasional golf game.

SUMMARY:Exhibition: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: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: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:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series | Representations of Likeness and Conventions of Portrait Making — Aspects of Japanese Medieval Portrait Painting
DESCRIPTION:The focus of this talk will be on Japanese medieval portrait painting around the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries\, the periods that are known as the Kamakura and Nanbokuchō eras. The genre of the period is highly appreciated in Japanese art history. \n    \nSince Japanese portraiture is not well known to English-speaking world\, he will discuss some of the basic aspects of portrait making in medieval Japan. They are: \n    \n     ・The Motivations for the Production of Portraiture \n     ・Who Made Them? Who Owned Them? \n     ・Formal analysis of Japanese Medieval Portraits \n     ・The Formal Schema of Portrait Painting \n    \nand he will examine how the artists of the periods presented the subjects following the visual convention of the day. \n    \nMichio Yonekura is an art historian specializing in Japanese painting. After he received his MA at the Tokyo National Institute of Fine Arts and Music\, he joined the Tokyo National Research Institute of Cultural Properties\, where he engaged in research and study of Japanese art for twenty-five years\, serving as Director of the Department of Archives from 1998 to 2001. He then became professor in the Faculty of Liberal Arts at Sophia (Jōchi) University in Tokyo\, and taught Japanese art history there until 2011. He has been a visiting professor and given lectures on medieval Japanese portraiture and narrative painting at Heidelberg University\, Waseda University\, and Harvard University. \n    \nProfessor Yonekura's primary field of research is medieval Japanese painting. By focusing on the visual representation of the subjects in portraiture\, landscape\, and narrative paintings of the 13th and 14th century (Kamakura-Nanbokuchō periods)\, he has sought to re-examine traditional master narratives of Japanese art history. His research has been published in books and articles on the iconic Jingoji portraits and illustrated biographies of renowned Buddhist monks. His main current research topic is the late 13th century Illustrated Biography of Ippen.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Moving Beyond Indirect Rule: Inca-Chincha Joint Rule at Las Huacas\, Chincha Valley
DESCRIPTION:This talk will address new research on Inca expansion into the coastal Chincha Valley of Peru (AD1474-1532). Many researchers have cited Chincha as a classic case of indirect rule\, but current research\, and research conducted by the Pisco-Chincha project in the 80s\, has demonstrated that it more accurately understood as joint rule. Due to the density of sites and rich ethnohistorical information\, the Chincha Valley has attracted attention from ethnohistorians and archaeologists alike throughout the years. The majority of this research has focused on costal sites due to the Chincha Kingdom’s involvement in prestigious long distance maritime trade\, but in order to understand how the specialist economy of the Chincha polity functioned in the Late Horizon\, the Proyecto de Investigación Arqueológico Las Huacas has targeted excavations at the inland agricultural center of Las Huacas. I will present research from excavations and an architectural analysis of Las Huacas\, and discuss plans for further excavations at Las Huacas in order to understand the administration of the site and the contributions that it made to the Chincha and Inca economies. I will develop this research alongside other models of Inca Imperial expansion that address the relationship between the expressions of Inca power and the institutions that supported them.

SUMMARY:Performance:Beth Graczyk Teaching Residency: Performance Improvisation
DESCRIPTION:Beth Graczyk is a New York-based dance artist and scientist whose research bridges the worlds of dance and science through inquiry into the creative process and its ramifications on societal issues and outcomes. She works as both a choreographer/performer and a published scientist. She writes: “Sustaining a dual-career as a dance artist and a published scientist\, I attempt to live in-between systems\, not adhering fully to any set of proposed rules\, values or constructs and at the risk of being unseen\, irrelevant\, or dismissed for non-adherence. Moving between these spaces allows me to use one system to observe and understand another.” Each master class addresses dance/ theater creation and improvisation\, along with discussion of performance research and ways that the creative process in the sciences merge and cross-pollinate with dance-making. \n\nSponsored by the Department of Dance\, Center for Research\, Learning and Teaching and Course Connections

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

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Commutative Algebra
DESCRIPTION:I will explain how one can generalize the definition of test ideals \tau to so-called Cartier modules in a functorial way. We obtain several transformation rules with respect to f^! and f_* for various classes of morphisms f: X \to Y\, e.g.\, for f smooth one has an isomorphism f^! \tau = \tau f^!. Part of the reason for working in this generality is that one has an equivalence with constructible etale p-torsion sheaves up to nilpotence of Cartier modules and these results further support the idea that the test module construction relates to etale nearby cycles similarly to the complex situation where multiplier ideals relate to complex nearby cycles.\nThis is joint work with Manuel Blickle.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Analysis/Probability Learning Seminar
DESCRIPTION:The classical Stolarsky principle states that minimizing  the L^2 discrepancy of a finite point-set on the sphere  with respect to the spherical caps  is equivalent to maximizing the sum of the Euclidean distances between the points in the set\, thus establishing a connection between discrepancy and energy optimization problems. We shall discuss generalizations and other versions of this principle\, and some applications to problem of optimization\, combinatorial geometry etc. In particular\, we find that there is a peculiar difference between the energies defined by the Euclidean and geodesic distances on the sphere.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM Theory | Gelation and Densification of Cement Hydrates: A Soft Matter in Construction
DESCRIPTION:5-8 % of the global human CO2 production comes from the production of cement\, concrete main binder. The material strength emerges through the development\, once in contact with water\, of calcium-silicate-hydrate (C-S-H) gels that literally glue together the final compound. Current industrial research aims at exploring alternative and more environmentally friendly chemical compositions while enhancing rheology and mechanics\, to overcome the many technological challenges and guarantee concrete standards. Identifying the fundamental mechanisms that control the gel properties at the early stages of hydration and setting is crucial\, although challenging\, because of far-from-equilibrium conditions\, closely intertwined to the evolution of the chemical environment\, that are a hallmark of cement hydration. \n\nI will discuss a recently developed statistical physics approach\, which allows us to investigate the gel formation under the out-of-equilibrium conditions typical of cement hydration and the role of the nano-scale structure in C-S-H mechanics upon hardening. Our approach\, combining MonteCarlo and Molecular Dynamics simulations\, unveils for the first time how some distinctive features of the kinetics of cement hydration can be related to the nano-scale effective interactions and to the changes in the morphology of the gels. The novel emerging picture is that the changes of the physico-chemical environment\, which dictate the evolution of the effective interactions\, specifically favor the gel formation and its continuous densification. Our findings provide new handles to design properties of this complex material and\, with an extensive comparison of numerical findings for the hardened paste with experiments ranging from SANS\, SEM\, adsorption/desorption of N2 and water to nano-indentation\, we gain new\, fundamental insights into the microscopic origin of the properties measured. \n\nK.

SUMMARY:Other:Deconstructing Biological Polymers with Chemical and Spectroscopic Tools 
DESCRIPTION:Non-covalent biological polymers play important roles in cellular function and disease. These include chromatin\, a protein-DNA polymer that represents the functional form of the genome\, and amyloid fibrils\, protein-protein assemblies often associated with neurodegenerative disorders. Unraveling the forces and interactions that define the structure and function of such polymers is still a tremendous challenge for structural biology as it requires the ability to span many length and time scales\, and the capability to construct relevant samples that represent the complexity\, dynamics and multivalency of functional biological entities. In the first part of this presentation\, I will describe spectroscopic approaches based on solid-state NMR that were used to determine the atomic-resolution structure of a model amyloid fibril. This structure provides a basis for understanding amyloid fibril heterogeneity and their extraordinary thermodynamic stability\, characteristics with important implications in disease. In the second part\, I will present a chemical biology toolbox that allows the efficient construction of chemically well-defined designer chromatin arrays. Combined with H/D exchange\, NMR\, and fluorescence-based experiments\, these synthetic polymers enabled the investigation of chromatin structure and dynamics as a function of post-translational modifications such as ubiquitin. Our results suggest novel mechanisms of chromatin polymer decompaction\, with important implications for gene regulation and access to genetic information in the cell. \n\nGalia Debelouchina (Princeton University)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Differential Equations
DESCRIPTION:For large classes of dispersive equations\, it has been conjectured that the solution will eventually break up as finite sum of solitons plus linear dispersion. This conjecture is open for most equations\, but for nonlinear wave equations\, there are better understanding of the mechanism for the soliton resolution\, using both arguments of a geometric flavor and a strong de-coupling mechanism for the dispersive part and solitons\, called ``channel of energy inequality\". In this talk\, I will explain these ideas in the context of the recent proof of soliton resolution along a sequence of times. Joint work with Duyckaerts\, Kenig\, Merle.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Development
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThis paper develops an instrumental-variables methodology for estimating production-function coefficients using exchange rates as a source of exogenous variation in input prices. We use rich data from the Colombian manufacturing census\, which includes information on prices and physical quantities of all outputs and inputs of firms\, in conjunction with customs records on all import and export transactions of Colombian firms. Preliminary results indicate that exchange-rate movements in source countries generate sufficient across-firm variation in input usage to estimate production functions of Colombian firms\, and that our estimates differ from those of proxy-variable methods currently dominant in the literature.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar: What is the role of phenotypic differentiation\, if any\, for explaining species abundances in tree communities?
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nNatural communities are composed of a few common and many rare species. This pattern is one of the few universal rules in ecology and is especially pronounced in species-rich ecosystems\, where most of the species display extremely low \nabundances. Although there is a long-standing interest in this pattern and the \ndevelopment of ecological and statistical models\, there is still no consensus. Here I argue that differences between species and individuals in their phenotypes are \nfundamentally important for understanding the drivers of species abundance. I \nprovide evidence to support this argument from my research concerning patterns of species abundance in tropical tree communities. The work uses statistical models to interrogate species and individual-level trait information with respect to abundance in natural communities from Asia and the Americas. The results show that (1) the species and trait composition of plant communities is driven by a combination of opposing ecological forces acting on intra- and inter-specific levels and that this ultimately results in differential species abundances\; (2) The magnitude of the phenotypic variation in natural assemblages is variable itself across species and related with species relative abundance\; (3) Rare species tend to occupy the periphery of the functional space of local communities. Overall\, my results indicate that phenotypic differences are key for our understanding of how species-environment relationships produce differential demographic rates that ultimately drive differential species abundance. Furthermore\, ecological interactions occur at the individual level and considering individual-level trait information\, which is frequently ignored in trait-based ecology\, in the context of community assembly opens a new avenue of research for addressing foundational questions in ecology.\n\nLight refreshments served at 4 p.m.\n\nView YouTube video of seminar: https://youtu.be/5GE1q31A4jc

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:FALL 2016 COMMUNICATION & MEDIA SPEAKER SERIES From the 7/7 London Bombings to the Failed Turkish Coup: How Have News Organizations Adapted to the Realities of Eyewitness Media
DESCRIPTION:In July 2005\, 52 people were killed when four separate explosions rocked London during the morning rush hour. Survivors escaped through underground tunnels capturing footage on their camera phones. It was the first time the BBC led a bulletin with 'user-generated content'. In July 2016\, the failed Turkish coup was caught on Periscope and Facebook Live by hundreds of people picking up their smartphones and broadcasting live. This lecture will examine the last decade of social newsgathering\, highlighting what has changed and what hasn't. There will be a discussion of the logistics of social discovery and verification as well as the ethical considerations of protecting eyewitnesses when publishing this type of content\, and ensuring journalists and audiences are not impacted by the increasingly graphic imagery that is emerging from breaking news events.\n\nClaire Wardle is the Research Director at Columbia University's Tow Center for Digital Journalism. She is also the co-founder of Eyewitness Media Hub\, a non-profit initiative committed to providing content creators and publishers with continuing research and resources. She is one of the world’s experts on user-generated content\, and has led two substantial research projects investigating how it is handled by news organizations. In 2009\, she was asked by BBC News to develop their Social Newsgathering and Verification training program. She went on to train over 3000 journalists in newsrooms around the world. She was also the Director of News Services for Storyful\, and Senior Social Media Office at the UN Agency for Refugees (UNHCR). Wardle holds a PhD in Communications and an MA in Political Science from the University of Pennsylvania. She also sits on the World Economic Forum’s Global Agenda Council on the Future of Information and Entertainment.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:John G. Topliss Eighth Annual Award Lecture \"Adventures in Cardiovascular Drug Discovery: New Frontiers and Lessons Learned\"
DESCRIPTION:Cardiovascular disease is the largest cause of death and disability in developed countries.  A common component of the end stage of these diseases is thromboembolic disorders which account for over 50% of cardiovascular related deaths. This large unmet medical need resulted in intense activity to discover and develop new antithrombotic drugs. Over the past few decades\, drug discovery directed at the treatment and prevention of thromboembolic diseases has been challenged by the need to balance robust efficacy with exquisite safety. Perhaps the most impactful advance to date in the area of oral anticoagulants\, has been the recent introduction into clinical practice of the new class of orally bioavailable small molecule factor Xa (FXa) inhibitors. At Bristol-Myers Squibb our efforts culminated in the discovery of Eliquis® (apixaban)\, a novel oral FXa inhibitor. This presentation will highlight the key learnings from the discovery efforts which led to Eliquis\, and applications of these learnings to the design of small molecule Factor XIa inhibitors.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Nam Center Colloquium Series |   If I Can K-Pop Dance\, I’ll Be a Part of Your Beauty Revolution
DESCRIPTION:This lecture contains mature and explicit content.\n\nRHEE will discuss the evolution of her politically engaged work as an artist and her dogged pursuit of cultivating creativity and playful improvisation in her artistic practice. She will touch on past work and influences to frame the context of her current interdisciplinary project\, called “Modern Beauty Ideals in the Age of Digital Technology or If I can K-Pop dance\, I’ll be part of your beauty revolution.” This work takes the form of photography\, drawing\, sculpture\, video\, internet art\, installation and social intervention to engage hetero-patriarchal global beauty ideals and accompanying digital technology from a transnational feminist perspective.\n\nLiving and working in Berlin\, Germany since 2009\, kate-hers RHEE was born in Seoul\, South Korea and raised in racially segregated working class Mount Clemens\, Michigan. She received her BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and her MFA from the University of California- Irvine\, where she was a Graduate Studies Diversity and Jacob K. Javits fellow. Artist and Art Center Pasadena professor Tom Knechtel says of RHEE’s interdisciplinary practice\, \n\n“Whether she is trying to re-insert herself back into her birth society of Korea or jamming the culinary tropes of German society with Korean cooking\, revealing the underlying racism behind a much-beloved German treat\, or mining the double entendres in an image of two pug dogs\, she directly addresses the complexity of social and racial identities in ways that are funny and scathing\, all at once.” \n\nRHEE’s work has been shown nationally and internationally with recent exhibitions and interactive projects at British Museum - London (2016)\, Asian Art Museum - Berlin (2016-2017)\, Neuer Berliner Kunstverein (2016) Group Intervention Video - Montreal (2015)\, Künstlerhaus Dortmund (2015)\, Humboldt Lab Dahlem Museum - Berlin (2015)\, Korean Cultural Service - New York (2015)\, Berlinische Galerie - Museum for Modern Art (2014) and SOMArts - San Francisco (2014). \n\nShe has been honored with several residency fellowships\, including from MacDowell Colony and Millay Colony for the Arts. Her work has been recognised by the AHL Foundation - New York with the 1st Prize of the Visual Arts Competition (2014) and has been funded by the Puffin Foundation (2015) and the Berlin Senate with a Travel Grant (2016) and the Visual Artist Fellowship (2015). RHEE’s work was featured in the essay by scholar Mei Heberer in “Back to Myself: Negotiating German Belonging and Transnational Asianness in Experimental Video\,” in The Autobiographical Turn in German Documentary and Experimental Film\, edited by Robin Curtis and Angelica Fenner (2014). Her current project will be featured in a chapter of an upcoming publication\, The (Geo) Politics of Beauty: Race\, Transnationalism\, and Neoliberalism in South Korean Beauty Culture\, by scholar Sharon Heijin Lee.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Topology
DESCRIPTION:For a hyperbolic knot or link K the volume density is a ratio of hyperbolic volume to crossing number\, and the determinant density is the ratio of 2\pi\log(det(K)) to the crossing number. We explore limit points of both densities for families of links approaching semi-regular biperiodic alternating links. We explicitly realize and relate the limits for both using techniques from geometry\, topology\, graph theory\, dimer models\, and Mahler measure of two-variable polynomials. This is joint work with Ilya Kofman and Jessica Purcell. Speaker(s): Abhijit Champanerkar (CUNY)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:FAST Lecture: Women Slaves and the Bacchic Murals in the Villa of the Mysteries in Pompeii
DESCRIPTION:The extraordinary Bacchic murals in the Villa of the Mysteries in Pompeii have eluded definitive interpretation by modern viewers since their discovery in 1909. Most scholarly attempts to understand their meaning have adopted the perspective of elite viewers and have proposed various layers of potential significance that  range from the mythological and prophetic to the cultic and nuptial to the social and theatrical. They also focus on the dominant figures: the so-called “Domina\,” “Bride” and/or multiple figures thought to represent the “Initiate.” With few exceptions\, such interpretations presume some kind of relation between the imagery and Greek antecedents.\n \nIn contrast\, this presentation considers meanings that the murals may have held for non-elite viewers—in particular\, the female slaves of the household. By focusing on those women who play various supporting roles in the visual drama depicted on the frieze\, and by assuming that a number of the cultic activities portrayed would have resonated with the work of daily life performed by female slaves in the villa\, this talk proposes that those household slaves identified with the women on the walls through the lens of their own experiences as slaves. Reading the Bacchic murals within this non-elite framework adds a new layer of potential meaning to these famous works of Roman art.\n\nReception 5:30 pm\, Lecture 6:00 pm.\n\nFAST lectures are free and open to the public.
