SUMMARY:Exhibition:ARCHIGRAM EXHIBITION OPENING
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition on View January 14 - February 19\nThis exhibition opening reception begins after Dennis Crompton's lecture in STAMPS Auditorium in the Walgreen Drama Center.\nThis exhibition celebrates the imagination and ingenuity of Archigram\, the British architects whose dynamic and provocative vision of future life brought the pop spirit to the architecture avant garde in 1960s Britain.\nVibrant\, playful\, optimistic\, and iconoclastic\, the visionary architectural projects presented by Archigram in exhibitions\, collages\, drawings and film\, played an important role in 1960s pop culture and have an enduring influence on architecture today. Archigram was founded in London in 1961 around a nucleus of young architects: Warren Chalk\, Peter Cook\, Dennis Crompton\, David Greene\, Ron Herron and Michael Webb. Inspired by pop culture\, advances in technology and the belief that architects had a responsibility to develop new ways of responding to social change\, the group rebelled against the conservative architectural establishment by launching a magazine – entitled Archigram – to express its ideas. \nOrganized by Dennis Crompton for Archigram. Supported by the Johe Fund. \nJoin us also for an opening lecture delivered by Dennis Crompton\, January 13 at 6:00pm in the Walgreen Drama Center's STAMPS Auditorium\, followed by an opening reception for the exhibition at the Liberty Research Annex.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Ann Arbor Street Paintings: Oil on Panel
DESCRIPTION:Carlye Crisler\, a well known Ann Arbor artist of en plein air (outdoor) painting\, is originally from the Bucktown district of Chicago. Her goal is to paint an environment or neighborhood by showing activities\, people and lighting at a particular time of day\, capturing an extended sense of place. In this collection of en plein air oil paintings\, Crisler has taken on complicated places with many textures and divisions of space. She embraces ambiguity with shapes of buildings broken by shadow and parts of them hidden by other things barely determined. In addition to a painter of urban landscapes\, Crisler also is a costumer\, figurative portrait painter and metal sculptor.

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:Moving Image: Landscape
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Landscape explores traditional notions of landscape through four very different time-based works by artists Jim Campbell\, Antti Laitinen\, Joanie Lemercier\, and Rick Silva.\n\nCampbell’s recent body of work\, including Seal Rock\, presents pixilated images of landscapes created with grids of LEDs. The low-resolution LEDs create a tension between representation and abstraction\, provoking viewers to interpret visual information on their own. In the three-channel video It’s My Island Laitinen builds his own island in the Baltic Sea by dragging two hundred sand bags into the water over a period of three months. The work explores ideas of nationality\, citizenship\, and identity as the artist creates his own single-citizen micro-nation. Lemercier’s computer-generated print Landforms uses patterns of black dots and projected light to create the illusion of three-dimensionality and movement when seen from a distance. The effects are more realistic than a still image\, but still unsettlingly artificial. Silva’s Render Garden explores the digitized landscape\, including remix and glitch aesthetics\, through software that endlessly generates new plant combinations.\n\nThroughout the next year UMMA will present a series of exhibitions drawn from the Borusan Contemporary Art Collection in Istanbul. The Borusan’s thirty-year-old collection includes significant works across a variety of genres\, and since 2011 it has focused on media arts. The works exhibited here address formal concerns such as abstraction and color\, and conceptual topics such as identity or ecological issues\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\,\nthe Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

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

SUMMARY:Exhibition: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:The Leaders and the Rest: Boundaries and Belonging at the University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Who belongs at the University of Michigan? Who gets to draw its boundaries? Michigan students have asked and answered these questions for nearly two hundred years. Against a backdrop of local\, national\, and global change\, they have negotiated their place and redefined their responsibilities. At times\, students have debated among each other\, sparred with faculty and administrators\, negotiated with community members\, and contended with politicians. In so doing\, they have shaped the physical campus\, the student body\, the meaning of community\, and the university’s mission as a public institution.\n\nThis exhibit showcases key moments of student expression\, politics\, and culture from the first decades of the university’s existence in Ann Arbor\, through the upheavals of world wars\, and to the social and cultural turmoil of the late-twentieth century.\n\nOn display January 4-February 25\, 2017\, Hatcher Library Gallery (Room 100).\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester initiative is presented with support from the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office. Additional support provided by the Department of History and the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

SUMMARY:Performance:SMTD@UMMA: The Star-Spangled Banner: Transformation\, Translation\, Amnesia & Remembrance
DESCRIPTION:Francis Scott Key’s anthem has traversed a 200-year journey from broadside to victory ballad\, protest song to anthem and back again. SMTD Professor Mark Clague\, author of an upcoming book on this topic\, will explore how these processes of translation and transformation comprise a portrait of the nation\, past and present in this lecture-recital- discussion featuring tales from the song’s history\, interspersed with live performance. UMMA's exhibition Traces: Reconstructing the History of a Chokwe Mask similarly recovers the stories of a Chokwe mask that was collected in 1905 in Angola and looks at how its meaning and value have changed over the course of its journey through many hands to UMMA’s African collection. Prior to the concert\, remarks from Traces curator Laura De Becker\, will invite us to consider the relationship we have with objects—whether they be songs or masks—in ways both real and symbolic.\n\nThe SMTD@UMMA performance series is generously supported by the Katherine Tuck Enrichment Fund and the Greg Hodes and Heidi Hertel Hodes—Partners in the Arts Endowment Fund.\n\nLead support for the exhibition Traces: Reconstructing the History of a Chokwe Mask 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:Sara Watkins
DESCRIPTION:“This is a breakup album with myself...” says Sara Watkins of her third solo record\, \"Young in All the Wrong Ways.\" Writing and recording these ten intensely soul-baring songs was a means for her to process and mark the last couple years\, which have been transformative. “I looked around and realized that in many ways I wasn’t who or where I wanted to be. It’s been a process of letting go and leaving behind patterns and relationships and in some cases how I’ve considered myself. What these songs are documenting is the turmoil you feel when you know something has to change and you’re grappling with what that means. It means you’re losing something and moving forward into the unknown.”

SUMMARY:Exhibition:ARCHIGRAM EXHIBITION OPENING
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition on View January 14 - February 19\nThis exhibition opening reception begins after Dennis Crompton's lecture in STAMPS Auditorium in the Walgreen Drama Center.\nThis exhibition celebrates the imagination and ingenuity of Archigram\, the British architects whose dynamic and provocative vision of future life brought the pop spirit to the architecture avant garde in 1960s Britain.\nVibrant\, playful\, optimistic\, and iconoclastic\, the visionary architectural projects presented by Archigram in exhibitions\, collages\, drawings and film\, played an important role in 1960s pop culture and have an enduring influence on architecture today. Archigram was founded in London in 1961 around a nucleus of young architects: Warren Chalk\, Peter Cook\, Dennis Crompton\, David Greene\, Ron Herron and Michael Webb. Inspired by pop culture\, advances in technology and the belief that architects had a responsibility to develop new ways of responding to social change\, the group rebelled against the conservative architectural establishment by launching a magazine – entitled Archigram – to express its ideas. \nOrganized by Dennis Crompton for Archigram. Supported by the Johe Fund. \nJoin us also for an opening lecture delivered by Dennis Crompton\, January 13 at 6:00pm in the Walgreen Drama Center's STAMPS Auditorium\, followed by an opening reception for the exhibition at the Liberty Research Annex.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Ann Arbor Street Paintings: Oil on Panel
DESCRIPTION:Carlye Crisler\, a well known Ann Arbor artist of en plein air (outdoor) painting\, is originally from the Bucktown district of Chicago. Her goal is to paint an environment or neighborhood by showing activities\, people and lighting at a particular time of day\, capturing an extended sense of place. In this collection of en plein air oil paintings\, Crisler has taken on complicated places with many textures and divisions of space. She embraces ambiguity with shapes of buildings broken by shadow and parts of them hidden by other things barely determined. In addition to a painter of urban landscapes\, Crisler also is a costumer\, figurative portrait painter and metal sculptor.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Leaders and the Rest: Boundaries and Belonging at the University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Who belongs at the University of Michigan? Who gets to draw its boundaries? Michigan students have asked and answered these questions for nearly two hundred years. Against a backdrop of local\, national\, and global change\, they have negotiated their place and redefined their responsibilities. At times\, students have debated among each other\, sparred with faculty and administrators\, negotiated with community members\, and contended with politicians. In so doing\, they have shaped the physical campus\, the student body\, the meaning of community\, and the university’s mission as a public institution.\n\nThis exhibit showcases key moments of student expression\, politics\, and culture from the first decades of the university’s existence in Ann Arbor\, through the upheavals of world wars\, and to the social and cultural turmoil of the late-twentieth century.\n\nOn display January 4-February 25\, 2017\, Hatcher Library Gallery (Room 100).\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester initiative is presented with support from the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office. Additional support provided by the Department of History and the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

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

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Speaking Their Language: Connecting with Adolescents in Research using Social Media and Text Messaging
DESCRIPTION:Tammy Chang\, Assistant Professor in the Department Family Medicine\, talks about her team’s journey to tap into adolescents’ everyday lives while minimizing the research burden among their participants.\n\nPrograms designed to address the high prevalence of risky health behaviors among adolescents often miss the mark. Understanding adolescents’ thoughts and opinions is challenging\, yet vital if we hope to create programs and policies that promote their health and wellbeing. \n\nDr. Chang is a health services researcher and practicing family physician with a passion for adolescent health\, specifically\, breaking the cycle of poverty and poor health among adolescent mothers and their children.  Her research is focused on improving access to reproductive health care and promoting healthy pregnancy weight gain among at-risk adolescents using text messaging\, social media\, and other emerging technology.\n\nEmergent Research events are aimed at better understanding the various types of research undertaken across campus\, particularly as they relate to library services and support\, opportunities for collaboration\, data management and preservation\, and beyond.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Why is the Sky Blue?...
DESCRIPTION:When most people hear “physics”\, they often think of cutting edge physics\, like the discovery of gravity waves or the Higgs boson. But then the answers to ‘simple’ questions like “why is the sky blue?”\, “how far away is the Sun?” or “what’s at the center of the Earth?” are just taken for granted. \n\nWe combine physics\, history and our intuition to explore the trials and tribulations of scientists from centuries ago as they set out on their journey to answer these and other awesome questions in physics.\n\nInstructor Brian Worthmann will lead this fascinating class for those 50 and over for two hours each Monday from January 23 through March 20.

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:Moving Image: Landscape
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Landscape explores traditional notions of landscape through four very different time-based works by artists Jim Campbell\, Antti Laitinen\, Joanie Lemercier\, and Rick Silva.\n\nCampbell’s recent body of work\, including Seal Rock\, presents pixilated images of landscapes created with grids of LEDs. The low-resolution LEDs create a tension between representation and abstraction\, provoking viewers to interpret visual information on their own. In the three-channel video It’s My Island Laitinen builds his own island in the Baltic Sea by dragging two hundred sand bags into the water over a period of three months. The work explores ideas of nationality\, citizenship\, and identity as the artist creates his own single-citizen micro-nation. Lemercier’s computer-generated print Landforms uses patterns of black dots and projected light to create the illusion of three-dimensionality and movement when seen from a distance. The effects are more realistic than a still image\, but still unsettlingly artificial. Silva’s Render Garden explores the digitized landscape\, including remix and glitch aesthetics\, through software that endlessly generates new plant combinations.\n\nThroughout the next year UMMA will present a series of exhibitions drawn from the Borusan Contemporary Art Collection in Istanbul. The Borusan’s thirty-year-old collection includes significant works across a variety of genres\, and since 2011 it has focused on media arts. The works exhibited here address formal concerns such as abstraction and color\, and conceptual topics such as identity or ecological issues\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\,\nthe Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

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

SUMMARY:Exhibition: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:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | Beyond Mindfulness: Buddhism and Health in Historical Perspective
DESCRIPTION:The so-called “Mindfulness Revolution” sweeping through mainstream American popular culture has tended to overshadow both the deep historical roots of the connections between Buddhism and health\, as well as the diversity of those Buddhist healing methods beyond merely meditation. Dr. Salguero’s talk will place the contemporary focus on the health benefits of mindfulness within the history of Buddhist engagements with medicine\, with special focus on China. He will outline the many rich and complex approaches to healing that have been (and still are) used in Chinese Buddhist communities\, and will suggest directions for further historical and clinical research beyond mindfulness.\n\nDr. Salguero is an interdisciplinary humanities scholar interested in the role of Buddhism in the crosscultural exchange of medical ideas. He has a Ph.D. in History of Medicine from Johns Hopkins University’s School of Medicine\, and teaches Asian history\, religion\, and culture at Penn State University’s Abington College\, located near Philadelphia. The major theme in his scholarship is the interplay between the global transmission and local reception of Buddhist knowledge about health\, disease\, and the body.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Great World Mythologies Part II
DESCRIPTION:The Knowledge Seekers will continue to study some of the most famous mythology stories that are central to our daily lives and helped build the foundation for modern-day legacies. \n\nWhile these myths are entertaining\, they also are a means to pass along history and teach important lessons about morals and rules. Renowned scholars of mythology from the Great Courses DVD series provide the primary content about the Babylonian\, Egyptian and Indian myths. \n\nRichard Galant will be the on-site assistant guide as Knowledge Seekers gain a deeper understanding about the world of myth.\n\nThis study group is restricted to those 50 and over and will meet for 90 minutes on Mondays from January 23 through March 6\, except for February 6.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Complex Analysis\, Dynamics and Geometry
DESCRIPTION:In this talk I will first recall the short history of dynamical- system-theoretically defined Riemannian metrics on deformation spaces -- pressure metrics. Then I will focus on a moduli space of metric graphs and discuss two pressure metrics on it. These two pressure metrics could be thought of as analogues of Weil Petersson metrics (or Thurston's Riemannian metrics) for spaces of metric graphs. In particular\, I will discuss and compare Riemannian geometric features of these two metrics with the \"classic\" Weil-Petersson metric in Teichmueller theory. This work is motivated by an earlier work of Pollicott and Sharp. Speaker(s): Kao Lien-Yung (Notre Dame)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Collective Neutrino Oscillations: Challenges and Future Directions
DESCRIPTION:The large neutrino flux emitted during core-collapse supernovae leads to non-negligible neutrino self-interactions. The presence of neutrino self-interaction is the cause of interesting non-linear evolution of neutrino flavor. This offers a unique probe for neutrino properties. Collective neutrino oscillations are also essential for understanding some aspects of the physics of supernovae. Due to the non-linear nature of the equations of motion\, there are challenges involved in the computation of flavor evolution even in the simplest case. I will discuss the physics impact of supernova neutrinos\, the challenges involved\, and what the future holds for the study of supernova neutrinos.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Integrable Systems and Random Matrix Theory
DESCRIPTION:I will describe joint work with Robert Buckingham and Robert Jenkins to analyze the initial-value problem for the three-wave resonant interaction equations\, an integrable system governing three quadratically coupled fields\, in an appropriate semiclassical limit.  As the system is non-dispersive\, long time limits do not reveal any particular simplification of the dynamics\, but the semiclassical limit allows for the practical calculation of the interaction process.  I will describe the construction of an appropriate semiclassical soliton ensemble and show how such ensembles can be used to understand the behavior of resonant triads in a wide variety of systems.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Combinatorics Seminar
DESCRIPTION:The matching polynomial of a discrete graph encodes information that holds interest to mathematicians and non-mathematicians (i.e. physicists and chemists). In this talk we will discuss asymptotic \"high-temperature\" behavior of this invariant on k-regular graphs\, following recent work of Csikvari (2014). Our main tool is to relate the matching polynomial of a graph to that of its bipartite double cover.\n\n[If you're not yet convinced this belongs in a combinatorics seminar: the Catalan numbers make an unexpected appearance!] Speaker(s): Harry Richman (University of Michigan)

DESCRIPTION:Central Student Government is deeply committed to changing the culture around sexual misconduct and alcohol and other drug misuse on campus. This is why we want to empower Michigan students to receive Bystander Intervention training around these important and challenging issues.We have instituted a pilot funding policy\, in which a student organization will only be eligible to claim\, at most\, $1\,000 per semester from SOFC until that group sends at least two of its authorized signers to one Bystander Intervention training facilitated by campus partners. This pilot policy will go in effect at the beginning of next semester\, Winter 2017.** Please only register for one event and mark this in your calendar. Registration is a commitment to attend. Not attending will cause a delay in allowing your organization to claim more than $1\,000. **

SUMMARY:Film Screening:CJS Film Series | Tokyo Drifter (東京流れ者)
DESCRIPTION:Fully restored digital cinema presentation. This pop art gangster film follows Tetsuya “Phoenix Tetsu” Hondo\, who is looking forward to his forced retirement after his gang is disbanded. But when he refuses an offer he shouldn’t\, what follows is a dizzying and blood-soaked 1960’s take on the wandering Samurai. Directed by Seijun Suzuki\, this film\, now considered a classic of the Yakuza genre\, pushed Suzuki and art director Takeo Kimura even harder to craft their high-energy vision on a budget that the studio hoped would actually limit them.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:ARCHIGRAM EXHIBITION OPENING
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition on View January 14 - February 19\nThis exhibition opening reception begins after Dennis Crompton's lecture in STAMPS Auditorium in the Walgreen Drama Center.\nThis exhibition celebrates the imagination and ingenuity of Archigram\, the British architects whose dynamic and provocative vision of future life brought the pop spirit to the architecture avant garde in 1960s Britain.\nVibrant\, playful\, optimistic\, and iconoclastic\, the visionary architectural projects presented by Archigram in exhibitions\, collages\, drawings and film\, played an important role in 1960s pop culture and have an enduring influence on architecture today. Archigram was founded in London in 1961 around a nucleus of young architects: Warren Chalk\, Peter Cook\, Dennis Crompton\, David Greene\, Ron Herron and Michael Webb. Inspired by pop culture\, advances in technology and the belief that architects had a responsibility to develop new ways of responding to social change\, the group rebelled against the conservative architectural establishment by launching a magazine – entitled Archigram – to express its ideas. \nOrganized by Dennis Crompton for Archigram. Supported by the Johe Fund. \nJoin us also for an opening lecture delivered by Dennis Crompton\, January 13 at 6:00pm in the Walgreen Drama Center's STAMPS Auditorium\, followed by an opening reception for the exhibition at the Liberty Research Annex.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Ann Arbor Street Paintings: Oil on Panel
DESCRIPTION:Carlye Crisler\, a well known Ann Arbor artist of en plein air (outdoor) painting\, is originally from the Bucktown district of Chicago. Her goal is to paint an environment or neighborhood by showing activities\, people and lighting at a particular time of day\, capturing an extended sense of place. In this collection of en plein air oil paintings\, Crisler has taken on complicated places with many textures and divisions of space. She embraces ambiguity with shapes of buildings broken by shadow and parts of them hidden by other things barely determined. In addition to a painter of urban landscapes\, Crisler also is a costumer\, figurative portrait painter and metal sculptor.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Leaders and the Rest: Boundaries and Belonging at the University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Who belongs at the University of Michigan? Who gets to draw its boundaries? Michigan students have asked and answered these questions for nearly two hundred years. Against a backdrop of local\, national\, and global change\, they have negotiated their place and redefined their responsibilities. At times\, students have debated among each other\, sparred with faculty and administrators\, negotiated with community members\, and contended with politicians. In so doing\, they have shaped the physical campus\, the student body\, the meaning of community\, and the university’s mission as a public institution.\n\nThis exhibit showcases key moments of student expression\, politics\, and culture from the first decades of the university’s existence in Ann Arbor\, through the upheavals of world wars\, and to the social and cultural turmoil of the late-twentieth century.\n\nOn display January 4-February 25\, 2017\, Hatcher Library Gallery (Room 100).\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester initiative is presented with support from the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office. Additional support provided by the Department of History and the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

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:Moving Image: Landscape
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Landscape explores traditional notions of landscape through four very different time-based works by artists Jim Campbell\, Antti Laitinen\, Joanie Lemercier\, and Rick Silva.\n\nCampbell’s recent body of work\, including Seal Rock\, presents pixilated images of landscapes created with grids of LEDs. The low-resolution LEDs create a tension between representation and abstraction\, provoking viewers to interpret visual information on their own. In the three-channel video It’s My Island Laitinen builds his own island in the Baltic Sea by dragging two hundred sand bags into the water over a period of three months. The work explores ideas of nationality\, citizenship\, and identity as the artist creates his own single-citizen micro-nation. Lemercier’s computer-generated print Landforms uses patterns of black dots and projected light to create the illusion of three-dimensionality and movement when seen from a distance. The effects are more realistic than a still image\, but still unsettlingly artificial. Silva’s Render Garden explores the digitized landscape\, including remix and glitch aesthetics\, through software that endlessly generates new plant combinations.\n\nThroughout the next year UMMA will present a series of exhibitions drawn from the Borusan Contemporary Art Collection in Istanbul. The Borusan’s thirty-year-old collection includes significant works across a variety of genres\, and since 2011 it has focused on media arts. The works exhibited here address formal concerns such as abstraction and color\, and conceptual topics such as identity or ecological issues\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\,\nthe Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

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

SUMMARY:Exhibition: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:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | 'The Glory of Hope:' A Lens to Unravel the Social Changes in China
DESCRIPTION:Documentary filmmaker Robert Adanto will be joining this presentation.\n\nArtist Wang Qingsong will present an overview of his latest works made during the last ten years which have been inspired by the dramatic transformations that have taken place inside China. His work echoes reality: issues like real-estate development\, massive consumption\, education failure\, migration as well as globalization. What differs from reality in his work are the condensation of problems in which you find out all kinds of conflicts\, contradictions\, and contortions that are narrated in a very humorous manner. \n    \nSince turning from painting to photography in the late 1990s\, Beijing based artist Wang Qingsong has created compelling works that convey an ironic vision of 21st-century China’s encounter with global consumer culture. Working in the manner of a motion-picture director\, he conceives elaborate scenarios involving dozens of models that are staged in film studio sets. The resulting color photographs\, such as “Night Revels of Lao Li”\, and “Can I Cooperate with You?”\, employ knowing references to classic Chinese artworks to throw an unexpected light on today’s China\, emphasizing its new material wealth\, its uninhabited embrace of commercial values\, and the social tensions arising from the massive influx of migrant workers to its cities in “Sentry Post”\, Dormitory” and “Dream of Migrants”. Lately he has continued to explore new media\, video works and film-making in his new venture. \n    \nOver the last twenty years of working for the Chinese contemporary art\, Zhang Fang has been an eyewitness and documenting writer. She has published quite extensively in foreign and Chinese journals introducing the China syndrome which are compounded by multi-faced social\, political\, economic and cultural diaspora. Now a visiting scholar at the U-M Lieberthal-Rogel Center of Chinese Studies\, she has been preparing for an art exhibition and symposium to be premiered in the new gallery space of Stamps School of Art and Design besides giving a seminar course introducing students a perspective into the latest Chinese social and cultural transformations.\n\nRobert Adanto is a Los Angeles native currently based in Miami. A classically-trained actor and documentary filmmaker\, he earned his M.F.A. in Acting from New York University’s Graduate Acting Program and is currently playing Shylock in Shakespeare Miami’s production of \"The Merchant of Venice.\" As a filmmaker\, he is interested in exploring how artists respond to rapid\, sometimes catastrophic change. His documentaries have looked at China’s explosive contemporary art scene (\"The Rising Tide\" 2008)\, the lives and works of Iranian female artists (\"Pearls on the Ocean Floor\" 2010)\, the impact of Hurricane Katrina on the lives of New Orleans-based artists (\"City of Memory\" 2014)\, and radical \"4th wave\" feminist performance in Brooklyn (\"The F Word\" 2015). He is currently working on “Born Just Now\,” a film looking at the Belgrade-based performance artist\, Marta Jovanović. His films have screened at over 40 international film festivals and have been presented at various museums around the world.

DESCRIPTION:Title: Understanding the Role of Parents and Preschool Programs in Supporting Low-Income Children’s School Success\n\nAbstract: This presentation is directed at identifying potential policy remedies for inequality in America with a focus on publicly funded preschool and two-generation programs. To this end\, Study 1 will focus on the conditional impacts of the Head Start program on parents’ investment and discipline practices as a function of their initial skills and abilities. Study 2 will consider the implications of mixed-age classrooms in Head Start for children’s academic and social-behavior development. Finally\, Study 3 will examine whether different forms of publicly funded preschool programs have academic benefits for children through the end of the third grade year. Future research plans will also be discussed.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LACS Lecture.    Building Indios: A Genealogy of Landscape and Political Subjectivity in Peru's Zaña Valley\, 12th-18th Centuries C.E.
DESCRIPTION:In this paper\, I explore the legacies of the Spanish forced resettlement of indigenous peoples in colonial Peru (reducción). Drawing on archaeological research at the site of Carrizales in Peru's Zaña valley\, I begin by examining the immediate impacts of resettlement on indigenous lifeways. I demonstrate that native peoples rapidly and drastically transformed their food-collection and preparation strategies in the wake of resettlement\, sedimenting new relationships with the landscape and with imperial institutions. I then draw on regional archaeological survey and archival research to examine the long-term consequences of reducción in the 17th and 18th centuries\, focusing in particular on the unanticipated consequences of environmental and social change. Based on these results\, I ultimately suggest that a genealogical approach to landscape – one that traces the winding path of engagement between peoples\, environments and political institutions – offers a much richer account of imperial politics than one that focuses only on brief\, violent flashes of political encounters.\" \n    \nParker VanValkenburgh is assistant professor of anthropology at Brown University. He is an archaeologist whose research focuses on landscapes\, politics and environmental change in the Early Modern World – particularly\, in late prehispanic and early colonial Peru. He received his Ph.D. in 2012 from Harvard University and previously held positions at the University of Vermont and Washington University in St. Louis. Since 2008\, he has directed a research project investigating the impacts of Spanish colonial forced resettlement (reducción) on landscapes.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Geometry/Topology
DESCRIPTION:What is a geometry? The Greeks had an answer\, but then the 19th century showed that they didn't have all of them. In this talk we explore a more modern answer to this question---a (G\, X)-structure---describe the geometries that arise in 2 and 3 dimensions from this perspective\, and show how projective geometry can encompass all of these. In particular\, there are paths of projective geometries which exhibit transitions from one geometry to another: we will attempt to explain these geometric transitions. Speaker(s): Feng Zhu (UM)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Laser-cooled Microwave Atomic Clocks at NIST
DESCRIPTION:This talk will provide an overview of the primary frequency standards at NIST. Caesium fountains NIST-F1 and NIST-F2 are employed as national primary frequency standards operating with fractional uncertainties in low 10^-16 range. NIST-F2 is a second-generation standard developed with a cryogenic microwave cavity and flight region. The 80 K atom interrogation environment reduces the uncertainty due to the blackbody radiation shift by more than a factor of 50. \n\nThe second part of this talk will introduce our current efforts in developing laser-cooled atomic clocks for the next generation of GPS satellites. The current generation of atomic clocks used in GPS satellites is based on lamp-excited Rb vapor-cell clock techniques that date back 50 years and while the performance is impressive\, it is unlikely to be further improved by incremental advances on the already very mature technology. Because the uncertainties of onboard clocks are significant contributors to the overall GPS error budget\, there is interest in developing a new generation of robust\, small\, reliable\, and accurate laser-cooled microwave atomic clocks for future generations of the GPS system.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:DAAS Africa Workshop: Emirs in London: Metropolitan Adventure and Aristocratic Culture in Colonial Nigeria
DESCRIPTION:Moses Ochonu specializes in the modern history of Africa\, with a particular focus on the colonial and postcolonial periods. Recent projects — a book and an article — have however taken him into precolonial topics and periods. Although he teaches survey and topical classes on all regions of Africa (and on all periods)\, his research interest lies in Nigeria. He is the author of three books. His first book is Colonial Meltdown: Northern Nigerian in the Great Depression\, (Ohio University Press\, 2009). His second book is Colonialism by Proxy: Hausa Imperial Agents and Middle Belt Consciousness in Nigeria\, (Indiana University Press\, 2014). His third book\, Africa in Fragments: Essays on Nigeria\, Africa\, and Global Africanity (New York: Diasporic Africa Press\, 2014)\, is a collection of analytical essays on a variety of topics relating to Nigeria\, Africa\, and global African communities. Topics covered in the essays include Afro-Arab relations\; corruption and poverty\; the impact of foreign aid on Africa\; post-colonial nation building\; the structure of the Nigerian state\; the debate on African participation and possible complicity in the Atlantic slave trade\; the challenges of democracy in Africa\; postcolonial African migration to the West\; relations between African Africans and African immigrants in the United States\; African Islam and Islamic extremism\, and more. Ochonu has published over a dozen articles in peer-reviewed journals as well as several chapters in edited volumes. He is working on a fourth book project tentatively entitled \"The Roving Diaspora: Nigerian Muslim Perspectives on Imperial Britain.\" With support in the form of a grant from the Vanderbilt Research Scholars Fellowship\, Dr. Ochonu has been gathering materials for this project\, which analyzes the travel narratives of Northern Nigerian Muslim travelers to Britain in colonial and early postcolonial times. These texts provide us with a tool to understand how African colonial subjects returned the familiar European narrative gaze on Africa. They also provide an entry into scholarly conversations about African narratives in/on Europe and about representations of the metropole in the experiential discourses of colonized peoples. Ochonu was twice the recipient of major fellowships from the American Council of Learned Societies (ACLS). His research has also been supported by awards and fellowships from the Harry Frank Guggenheim Foundation\, the Ford Foundation\, the Rockefeller Foundation\, National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH)\, the American Historical Association\, Franklin Roosevelt Institute\, and the British Library. His op-eds and commentaries on African topics have appeared in TIME magazine\, Chronicle Review/ The Chronicle of Higher Education\, Tennessean.com\, History News Network\, GlobalPost\, Pambazuka\, and several African newspapers and magazines.\n\nSpecializations\n\nModern Sub-Saharan Africa\; colonialism\; postcolonial developments\; political economy\; African social and economic history

SUMMARY:Presentation:Hidden Figures: The Untold Story of the Black Women Who Helped Win the Space Race
DESCRIPTION:College of Engineering\, Women in Science and Engineering (WISE)\, Center for Engineering Diversity & Outreach (CEDO)\, and the Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program (UROP) present: Margot Lee Shetterly\n\nAudiences of all backgrounds will be captivated by the phenomenal true story of the black “human computers” who used math to change their own lives—and their country’s future. Set against the rich backdrop of World War II\, the Space Race\, the Civil Rights Era\, and the burgeoning fight for gender equality\, this talk brings to life the stories of Dorothy Vaughan\, Mary Jackson\, Katherine Johnson\, and Christine Darden\, who worked as mathematicians at NASA during the golden age of space travel. Teaching math at segregated schools in the South\, they were called into service during the WWII labor shortages. Suddenly\, these overlooked math whizzes had jobs worthy of their skills at the Langley Memorial Aeronautical Laboratory\, in Hampton\, Virginia. Even as Jim Crow laws segregated them from their white counterparts\, the women of this all-black “West Computing” group helped America achieve a decisive victory over the Soviet Union in the Cold War. They were part of a group of hundreds of black and white women who\, over the decades\, contributed to some of NASA’s greatest successes.\n\nIn this keynote\, Margot Lee Shetterly talks about race\, gender\, science\, the history of technology\, and much else. She shows us the surprising ways that women and people of color have contributed to American innovation while pursuing the American Dream. In sweeping\, dramatic detail\, she sheds light on a forgotten but key chapter in our history\, and instills in us a sense of wonder\, and possibility.\n\n4:00 pm: Keynote with Q&A – Rackham Auditorium\n6:30 pm: Fireside Chat – Stamps Auditorium (North Campus)\n7:15 pm: Reception & Book Signing – Stamps Auditorium (North Campus)\n\nIs RSVP required?

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Making Michigan in the Industrial Age: U-M’s Detroit Connection
DESCRIPTION:\"Making Michigan in the Industrial Age: U-M’s Detroit Connection\" will explore the relationship between the university and the city during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Over the course of these decades\, Detroit became an industrial metropolis\, and U-M emerged as one of the nation's leading research universities. This panel will address the political\, economic\, and cultural dimensions of these overlapping histories.\n\nChristopher Newfield (University of California\, Santa Barbara)\, author of Ivy and Industry\, will discuss the university's contribution to managerial culture\, the democratizing potential of public universities\, and the ways in which Emersonian individualism limited this potential. Stefan Link (Dartmouth College) and Noam Maggor (Cornell University)\, co-authors of a forthcoming book on industrialization in the U.S.\, will examine the unique place of the American Midwest\, particularly Detroit\, within national and global patterns of economic development. Anthony Ross (University of Michigan) will survey the relationship between the university and Detroit's industrial elite\, situating the Michigan experience within broader histories of education and industrialization.\n\nStefan Link is an Assistant Professor of History at Dartmouth College. He specializes in economic history\, business history\, and the intellectual history of capitalism. He is currently working on a book manuscript on the global spread of Fordism in the interwar years. Other research projects concern the political history of the early American automobile industry\, the transformation of the world economic order in the 1930s\, and comparative perspectives on American economic development since the Civil War.  Link earned his Ph.D. from Harvard and has been a Max Weber Fellow at the European University Institute in Florence\, Italy.\n\nNoam Maggor is a historian of the United States in the long nineteenth century\, with a particular emphasis on the emergence of industrial capitalism. His book\, Brahmin Capitalism: Frontiers of Wealth and Populism in America's First Gilded Age  tracks the movement of finance capital from Boston toward far-flung investment frontiers in the trans-Mississippi West in the aftermath of the Civil War.  Maggor is currently a Postdoctoral Associate in the Department of History at Cornell University\, where he teaches courses on the history of capitalism and the history of globalization.\n\nChristopher Newfield is a professor of literature and American studies at the University of California\, Santa Barbara.  Much of his research is in Critical University Studies\, which links his enduring concern with humanities teaching to the study of how higher education continues to be re-shaped by industry and other economic forces. His new book\, called The Great Mistake: How We Wrecked Public Universities and How We Can Fix Them\, was published in November 2016 and assesses the post-2008 struggles of public universities to rebuild their social missions. \n\nAnthony Ross received his Ph.D. in history from the University of Michigan in 2015. He is currently a Research Associate at the University of Michigan. \n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester event is presented with support from the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office. Additional support provided by the Department of History and the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:\"Jews and Photography in Britain: New Perspectives in Jewish History and the History of Photography\"
DESCRIPTION:Michael Berkowitz will speak about his recent book\, Jews and Photography in Britain\, the first-ever historical investigation of the Jewish engagement with photography in Britain. It ranges from the work of immigrant Jewish portrait photographers in the mid-nineteenth century to the author's audience with His Royal Highness\, the Duke of Edinburgh (2012) about Prince Philip's friend\, \"Baron\" (Sterling Henry Nahum).  Jews have been involved\, far out of proportion to their number\, in all facets of photography in the UK\, including photojournalism\, portrait studios\, collecting\, applications of photography to the fine arts\, and the emergence of photography criticism and history as distinct fields.  Despite Jews having played such remarkable roles in this overwhelming area of visual culture\, little attention has been paid to ethnic-religious difference\, in part due to photography's problematic and evolving relationship to what was deemed 'respectable' and proper 'art.'  To be sure\, Britain expressed tolerance and foresight in (almost always) allowing Jewish photographers to flourish\, providing refuge to the Warburg Institute\, and welcoming individuals fleeing Nazism such as Helmut Gernsheim and Stefan Lorant.  Yet as a nation it squandered the opportunity—especially that afforded by the offer of Helmut Gernsheim's astounding collection—to provide a permanent institutional home for a serious engagement with photography.\n\nBerkowitz also will discuss what he has learned about the subject since the book's publication—including revelations about his own mishpokhe in British photography\, and connections between Jews and other minority communities.\n\nImage courtesy of Yablon Collection\, Jewish Historical Society of England\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:Student Algebraic Geometry
DESCRIPTION:The theory of differential operators and modules over them (so called D-modules) has had many applications in many fields of math - most notably\, the Riemann-Hilbert correspondence (analysis) and the proof of the Kazhdan-Lusztig conjecture (representation theory). In this talk I will start by introducing the notion of differential operators on both the affine and the geometric setting together with many examples and nice results. I will then give a rough idea of their involvement in the Riemann-Hilbert correspondence.\n Speaker(s): Eamon Quinlan (UM)

SUMMARY:Film Screening:\"The F Word\"
DESCRIPTION:\"THE F WORD\" explores radical \"4th wave\" feminist performance through interviews with a new generation of feminist artists who use their bodies as subject matter. Because the female body continues to be politicized and policed\, and because these artists delve into the fecund territory of female sexuality\, self- objectification\, and the female form as a site of resistance\, many remain marginalized by the mainstream art world. Brooklyn-based Leah Schrager\, well known for her performance practice\, Naked Therapy\, states\, \"As soon as you introduce a bit of sexiness or sexuality into an artwork it suddenly becomes questionable.\n\nJust because something elicits arousal or shows elements of sexiness does absolutely not make it not art.\" While some 4th wave artists\, like Ann Hirsch and Kate Durbin\, choose to analyze representations of female identity through digital media\, others\, like the radical\, queer\, transnational feminist art collective\, Go! Push Pops\, explore sexuality and gender in pop culture in the digital age. As feminist lecturer Kristen Sollee explains\, 4th wavers\, unlike their predecessors\, \"are not afraid to be 'girly'\, (or) to be hyper-feminine\, or to wear a mini-skirt\, to self-objectify\" in the service of challenging patriarchal oppression or sexist ideals.\n\nFeatured artists: Narcissister\, Ann Hirsch\, Go! Push Pops\, Leah Schrager\, Kate Durbin\, Rebecca Goyette\, Rachel Mason\, Rafia Santana\, Damali Abrams\, Faith Holland\, Claudia Bitran\, Michelle Charles\, and Sadaf. In addition\, the film features Dr. Kathy Battista\, Director of Contemporary Art at Sotheby’s Institute of Art\, New York and author of Re-negotiating the Body: Feminist Artists in 1970s London (IB Tauris\, 2012)\, as an on-screen expert\, as is noted art critic and curator\, Nancy Princenthal.\n\nRobert Adanto is a Los Angeles native currently based in Miami. A classically-trained actor and documentary filmmaker\, he earned his M.F.A. in Acting from New York University’s Graduate Acting Program and is currently playing Shylock in Shakespeare Miami’s production of The Merchant of Venice. As a filmmaker\, he is interested in exploring how artists respond to rapid\, sometimes catastrophic change. His documentaries have looked at China’s explosive contemporary art scene (The Rising Tide 2008)\, the lives and works of Iranian female artists (Pearls on the Ocean Floor 2010)\, the impact of Hurricane Katrina on the lives of New Orleans-based artists (City of Memory 2014)\, and radical \"4th wave\" feminist performance in Brooklyn (The F Word 2015). He is currently working on Born Just Now\, a film looking at the Belgrade-based performance artist\, Marta Jovanović. His films have screened at over 40 international film festivals and have been presented at various museums around the world.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:ARCHIGRAM EXHIBITION OPENING
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition on View January 14 - February 19\nThis exhibition opening reception begins after Dennis Crompton's lecture in STAMPS Auditorium in the Walgreen Drama Center.\nThis exhibition celebrates the imagination and ingenuity of Archigram\, the British architects whose dynamic and provocative vision of future life brought the pop spirit to the architecture avant garde in 1960s Britain.\nVibrant\, playful\, optimistic\, and iconoclastic\, the visionary architectural projects presented by Archigram in exhibitions\, collages\, drawings and film\, played an important role in 1960s pop culture and have an enduring influence on architecture today. Archigram was founded in London in 1961 around a nucleus of young architects: Warren Chalk\, Peter Cook\, Dennis Crompton\, David Greene\, Ron Herron and Michael Webb. Inspired by pop culture\, advances in technology and the belief that architects had a responsibility to develop new ways of responding to social change\, the group rebelled against the conservative architectural establishment by launching a magazine – entitled Archigram – to express its ideas. \nOrganized by Dennis Crompton for Archigram. Supported by the Johe Fund. \nJoin us also for an opening lecture delivered by Dennis Crompton\, January 13 at 6:00pm in the Walgreen Drama Center's STAMPS Auditorium\, followed by an opening reception for the exhibition at the Liberty Research Annex.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Ann Arbor Street Paintings: Oil on Panel
DESCRIPTION:Carlye Crisler\, a well known Ann Arbor artist of en plein air (outdoor) painting\, is originally from the Bucktown district of Chicago. Her goal is to paint an environment or neighborhood by showing activities\, people and lighting at a particular time of day\, capturing an extended sense of place. In this collection of en plein air oil paintings\, Crisler has taken on complicated places with many textures and divisions of space. She embraces ambiguity with shapes of buildings broken by shadow and parts of them hidden by other things barely determined. In addition to a painter of urban landscapes\, Crisler also is a costumer\, figurative portrait painter and metal sculptor.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Leaders and the Rest: Boundaries and Belonging at the University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Who belongs at the University of Michigan? Who gets to draw its boundaries? Michigan students have asked and answered these questions for nearly two hundred years. Against a backdrop of local\, national\, and global change\, they have negotiated their place and redefined their responsibilities. At times\, students have debated among each other\, sparred with faculty and administrators\, negotiated with community members\, and contended with politicians. In so doing\, they have shaped the physical campus\, the student body\, the meaning of community\, and the university’s mission as a public institution.\n\nThis exhibit showcases key moments of student expression\, politics\, and culture from the first decades of the university’s existence in Ann Arbor\, through the upheavals of world wars\, and to the social and cultural turmoil of the late-twentieth century.\n\nOn display January 4-February 25\, 2017\, Hatcher Library Gallery (Room 100).\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester initiative is presented with support from the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office. Additional support provided by the Department of History and the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

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:Workshop / Seminar:Great Lakes Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Please join CILER and NOAA GLERL for a Great Lakes Seminar Series presentation:\nPresenter: Galen McKinley\, Professor\, University of Wisconsin\nTitle: Spatial variability and potential long-term trends in Great Lakes carbon\n\nTo participate remotely\, please register at: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/8732706556168576513.\n\nAbstract: Biogeochemical and carbon cycling in Great Lakes occurs in the context of a highly variable aquatic landscape that is significantly impacted by physical forcing. In order to understand biogeochemical cycling in its mean state and as it changes\, we must quantify the role of physical variability in space and time. Here\, three carbon cycle examples will be presented. In Lake Superior\, analysis of a coupled hydrodynamic-biogeochemical model (MITgcm.Superior) shows that physical gradients cause large variation in rates of both production (P) and respiration (R) between nearshore and offshore waters.  Accounting for this variability helps to bring the lake-wide carbon budget into balance (Bennington et al. 2012\, JGR). In the model\, fluxes of organic carbon from nearshore lead to elevated R:P ratios in the slope region\, which could support the observed enhanced heterotrophic biomass on the slope (McKinley and Bennington\, in prep). Lastly\, in all the Great Lakes\, I demonstrate that increasing atmospheric CO2 should lead to a reduction of pH by ~0.3 units by 2100\, quantitatively the same as projections for “ocean acidification” in the global oceans. In the Great Lakes\, the existing carbon cycle observational system is insufficient to track such changes (Phillips et al. 2015).\n\nBio: Professor McKinley studies the mechanisms of the carbon cycle in the global oceans and Great Lakes\, with her research lying at the intersection of physical and chemical oceanography. Her primary tools are numerical models and analysis of large datasets. More specifically\, her research addresses the physical drivers of ecosystem and carbon cycle variability in the North Atlantic\, global oceans and Great Lakes. Professor McKinley teaches oceanography and climate science in the Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences at University of Wisconsin – Madison. She is also very active in service to the national and international scientific and policy-making communities.\n_____________________________________________________\nQuestions?

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:Moving Image: Landscape
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Landscape explores traditional notions of landscape through four very different time-based works by artists Jim Campbell\, Antti Laitinen\, Joanie Lemercier\, and Rick Silva.\n\nCampbell’s recent body of work\, including Seal Rock\, presents pixilated images of landscapes created with grids of LEDs. The low-resolution LEDs create a tension between representation and abstraction\, provoking viewers to interpret visual information on their own. In the three-channel video It’s My Island Laitinen builds his own island in the Baltic Sea by dragging two hundred sand bags into the water over a period of three months. The work explores ideas of nationality\, citizenship\, and identity as the artist creates his own single-citizen micro-nation. Lemercier’s computer-generated print Landforms uses patterns of black dots and projected light to create the illusion of three-dimensionality and movement when seen from a distance. The effects are more realistic than a still image\, but still unsettlingly artificial. Silva’s Render Garden explores the digitized landscape\, including remix and glitch aesthetics\, through software that endlessly generates new plant combinations.\n\nThroughout the next year UMMA will present a series of exhibitions drawn from the Borusan Contemporary Art Collection in Istanbul. The Borusan’s thirty-year-old collection includes significant works across a variety of genres\, and since 2011 it has focused on media arts. The works exhibited here address formal concerns such as abstraction and color\, and conceptual topics such as identity or ecological issues\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\,\nthe Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

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

SUMMARY:Exhibition: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:Lecture / Discussion:CREES Noon Lecture. Jewish Voices in Russia and Ukraine: What Are They Saying?
DESCRIPTION:The overwhelming majority of Russian-speaking Jews today live outside the Russian Federation. Many of them\, particularly the older generation\, preserve their loyalty to and interest in Russian culture\, but their newly formed national identities and political sympathies can be very fluid and sometimes conflicting. The speaker will present a survey of contemporary Russian-Jewish writing across the borders\, focusing on the variety of representations of Russia and Ukraine as specifically “Jewish” spaces. What does it mean to write fiction in Russian about Ukraine from a Jewish perspective\, and what does this writing tell us about today's Russia\, Ukraine\, and Jews? Some of the authors in the discussion\, such as Ludmila Ulitskaya and Dmitry Bykov\, are already well-known in the West\, while others\, such as Margarita Khemlin\, Inna Lesovaya\, Asar Eppel\, Oleg Yuryev\, Maria Galina\, still await a due recognition. \n   \nMikhail Krutikov is professor of Slavic and Judaic studies\, currently serving as chair of the Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures at the University of Michigan. He graduated from Moscow State University with a degree in mathematics\, has a graduate diploma in Yiddish literature from Gorky Institute for Literature in Moscow\, and a Ph.D. in Jewish literature from the Jewish Theological Seminary of America. A scholar of Yiddish literature and East European Jewish culture\, he has published two books\, \"Yiddish Fiction and the Crisis of Modernity\, 1905­-1914\" (Stanford UP\, 2001) and \"From Kabbalah to Class Struggle: Expressionism\, Marxism and Yiddish Literature in the Life and Work of Meir Wiener\" (Stanford UP\, 2011)\, which won the MLA Fenia and Yaakov Leviant Memorial Prize in Yiddish Literature. He also co-­edited nine collected volumes in the Yiddish Studies series of Legenda Press (Oxford)\, most recently \"Children and Yiddish Literature: From Early Modernity to Post­-Modernity\" (2016). He is also a culture columnist for the Yiddish Forward.\n\nPart of the Minorities series at the Weiser Center for Europe & Eurasia\, which focuses on the fates and challenges various minorities face\, from ethnic and racial groups to people with disabilities and members of LGBT communities. How do different political regimes come to define groups as minorities\, and how do they engage with them as a result? What can the experience of minorities in the other parts of the world teach us?

Is it really as effective as conventional medicine in treating chronic illness and pain? \n\nVidyamala Burch and Danny Penman\, authors of Mindfulness for Health\, think so. Burch\, founder of the internationally acclaimed Breathworks\, knows the agony of trying to live with persistent pain. She knows the despondency of feeling helpless and hopeless as well as the joy and pleasure of finding a way to manage pain and live a full\, happy and meaningful life. \n\nIn this study group for those 50 and over led by Mike Murray\, we’ll examine these claims and judge their validity. We’ll support our discussions with readings and videos.  It will meet for two hours on Wednesdays from January 25 through March 1.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RTG Seminar on Geometry\, Dynamics and Topology
DESCRIPTION:The Heisenberg group with its sub-Riemannian metric comes up in multiple contexts involving asymptotic geometry and exhibits essential non-Euclidean and fractal behavior that stands in the way of generalizing standard methods from Euclidean geometry and analysis. On the other hand\, as a 3-dimensional space with a large isometry group\, its geometry retains enough analogs of Euclidean concepts for the Heisenberg group serve as a gateway to understanding the geometry of broader classes of metric spaces. \n\nIn this talk\, I will describe the Heisenberg group\, provide some motivation for its study\, and then provide some examples of the above principle of using the Heisenberg group as a gateway to metric geometry. In particular\, I will provide results from the well-developed field of analysis on metric spaces and some more recent developments in discrete geometry and number theory on the Heisenberg group.\n\nNote: this is a practice job talk. Everyone is welcome\, and feedback would be appreciated. Speaker(s): Anton Lukyanenko (UM)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | How Culture Shapes the Climate Change Debate
DESCRIPTION:Though the scientific community largely agrees that climate change is underway\, debates about this issue remain fiercely polarized. These conversations have become a rhetorical contest\, one where opposing sides try to achieve victory through playing on fear\, distrust\, and intolerance. At its heart\, this split no longer concerns carbon dioxide\, greenhouse gases\, or climate modeling\; rather\, it is the product of contrasting\, deeply entrenched worldviews. This brief examines what causes people to reject or accept the scientific consensus on climate change. Synthesizing evidence from sociology\, psychology\, and political science\, Andrew J. Hoffman lays bare the opposing cultural lenses through which science is interpreted. He then extracts lessons from major cultural shifts in the past to engender a better understanding of the problem and motivate the public to take action. How Culture Shapes the Climate Change Debate makes a powerful case for a more scientifically literate public\, a more socially engaged scientific community\, and a more thoughtful mode of public discourse.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Financial/Actuarial Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:Mean field type control problems and mean field games can be viewed as models for strategic decision making in very large populations. In this talk\, we will first explain the differences between these two theories\, both in terms of motivation and modeling. Then\, we will see how a dynamic programming principle can be proven for mean field type control problems. To do so\, starting from a stochastic formulation we rewrite such problems as the optimal control of a McKean-Vlasov equation. We can also clarify a link with the calculus of variations for these problems. Last\, a fixed point algorithm will be presented together with numerical results. This is joint work with Olivier Pironneau. Speaker(s): Matthieu Lauriere (NYU Shangai)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Nam Center Colloquium Series | “The Act was Oriental between Orientals:” The Persistence of Late Victorian Translations of the Twilight of Qing-Joseon Tributary Practice
DESCRIPTION:For more than one-hundred twenty-five years historiographies of nineteenth-century Qing tributary practice have posited a tradition-bound system that channeled and constrained possible forms of interstate relations. This tributary system construct has most recently re-emerged in international relations scholarship (IR) as a consideration and occasional anxiety associated with the so-called “rise of China.” This lecture traces the origins of the reanimated tributary system model in twenty-first century IR to Anglophone commentaries on Qing-Joseon tribute that emerged at the turn of the twentieth century in the wake of the Qing condolence mission to Joseon on the event of the death of Queen Dowager Jo in 1890. While this recent embrace of the tributary system model in IR circles comes to us swathed as a critical intervention in a larger movement to bring theoretical plurality to a field dominated by the occidentalist norms of Westphalian practice\, it is in actuality a return to orientalist form. It is an elision of historical ontology\, an erasure of the politics of knowledge at the very foundations of Anglophone literatures of tribute. It is\, in short\, a return to a late-Victorian knowledge of East Asian interstate practice.\n\nJoshua Van Lieu is a historian of early modern and modern East Asian politics\, thought\, and critical international relations. He received his doctoral degree from the University of Washington in the histories of Joseon Korea and Late Imperial China. Van Lieu has served as assistant editor and book review editor for The Journal of Korean Studies and has published on nineteenth-century Qing-Joseon tribute politics\, the historiography of reform movements in late Joseon Korea\, the roles of state Guanti cults in Ming\, Qing\, and Joseon narratives of state legitimacy\, and on critical approaches to historical international relations. His current projects include a paper on the transnational politics of translation in late nineteenth-century Korea and China and monographs on pre-colonial historiographies of Joseon factionalism and on the transformation of Qing-Joseon tributary practice in the context of the global modern of the long nineteenth century.\n\nPlease note that in the text above Korean words are written following the Revised Romanization system.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Algebraic Geometry
DESCRIPTION:The derived category of coherent sheaves on a cubic fourfold has a subcategory which can be thought as the derived category of a non-commutative K3 surface. This subcategory was studied recently in the work of Kuznetsov and Addington-Thomas\, among others. In this talk\, I will present joint work in progress with Bayer\, Lahoz\, Stellari and with Lahoz\, Nuer\, Perry\, on how to construct Bridgeland stability conditions on this subcategory. This proves a conjecture by Huybrechts\, and it allows to start developing the moduli theory of semistable objects in these categories\, in an analogue way as for the classical Mukai theory for (commutative) K3 surfaces. I will also discuss a few applications of this result.\n Speaker(s): Emanuele Macri (Northeastern University)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AUTHOR TALK: DETROIT IS NO DRY BONES - CAMILO VERGARA
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an evening of conversation moderated by U-M Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning Interim Dean Robert Fishman with photographer Camilo Vergara about his recent photography collection about Detroit. ​A photographic record of almost three decades of Detroit’s changing urban fabric Camilo José Vergara was named a MacArthur Foundation Fellow in 2002 and received a Berlin Prize Fellowship in 2010. In 2013\, he became the first photographer to be awarded the National Humanities Medal. He is author of numerous books\, including Silent Cities: The Evolution of the American Cemetery\; Twin Towers Remembered\; and Harlem: The Unmaking of a Ghetto. Over the past 25 years\, award-winning ethnographer and photographer Camilo José Vergara has traveled annually to Detroit to document not only the city’s precipitous decline but also how its residents have survived. From the 1970s through the 1990s\, changes in Detroit were almost all for the worse\, as the built fabric of the city was erased through neglect and abandonment. But over the last decade Detroit has seen the beginnings of a positive transformation\, and the photography in Detroit Is No Dry Bones provides unique documentation of the revival and its urbanistic possibilities. Beyond the fate of the city’s buildings themselves\, Vergara’s camera has consistently sought to capture the lives of Detroit’s people. Not only has he shown the impact of depopulation\, disinvestment\, and abandonment during the worst years of the urban crisis\, but he has also shown Detroiters’ resilience. The photographs in this book are organized in part around the way people have re-used and re-purposed structures from the past. One highlight is his documentation of local churches that have re-occupied old bank buildings and other impressive structures from the past and turned them into something unexpectedly powerful\, architecturally as well as spiritually.​

SUMMARY:Other:MSAIL Meeting #1
DESCRIPTION:Hello\, Folks! Thank you all for joining us in kicking off MSAIL 2017 with a great talkand discussion of Stein's Paradox. For some reason\, the presenter wishesto remain anonymous\, but let's nevertheless clap again for him or her! Her or his wish got me thinking: how can we respect his or her privacydespite referencing and congratulating her or him? I can't say too much\,lest y'all learn his or her identity! On a completely different note: have you ever wondered why this ArtificialIntelligence club does so much Machine Learning? Surely\, equally importantto learning is ignorance. This week\, let's discuss Machine Ignorance:techniques to obstruct an algorithm's learning. Specifically\, we wonder: How can we prevent over-fitting on our test set despite repeated testing?We can't test too much\, lest our algorithms learn the test's answers! We'll meet:     3433 EECS\, Wednesday\, 2016-01-25\, 19:00-20:00.Afterward\, we'll have the room reserved an additional half hour forinformal discussion and socializing. We look forward to seeing youthere! For a sneak-peak of the ideas we'll discuss\, check out the following!Generalization in Adaptive . . . and Holdout Reuse (Dwork et al. 2015)\nDifferential Privacy: a Short Tutorial (Yu-Xiang Wang 2012)\n  Cheers\,\nMas Ioka

And by Thursday of next week we will know where we have matched as well . . . \n\nThis session will be focused on providing actionable advice for M3s who are mapping their fourth year schedule and planning for away rotations. However\, all classes are welcome to sit in and get some exposure to how their M4 years will look like in the future if they pursue Urology. Furthermore\, there will be light refreshments including baked goods from our very own Marybeth.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:ARCHIGRAM EXHIBITION OPENING
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition on View January 14 - February 19\nThis exhibition opening reception begins after Dennis Crompton's lecture in STAMPS Auditorium in the Walgreen Drama Center.\nThis exhibition celebrates the imagination and ingenuity of Archigram\, the British architects whose dynamic and provocative vision of future life brought the pop spirit to the architecture avant garde in 1960s Britain.\nVibrant\, playful\, optimistic\, and iconoclastic\, the visionary architectural projects presented by Archigram in exhibitions\, collages\, drawings and film\, played an important role in 1960s pop culture and have an enduring influence on architecture today. Archigram was founded in London in 1961 around a nucleus of young architects: Warren Chalk\, Peter Cook\, Dennis Crompton\, David Greene\, Ron Herron and Michael Webb. Inspired by pop culture\, advances in technology and the belief that architects had a responsibility to develop new ways of responding to social change\, the group rebelled against the conservative architectural establishment by launching a magazine – entitled Archigram – to express its ideas. \nOrganized by Dennis Crompton for Archigram. Supported by the Johe Fund. \nJoin us also for an opening lecture delivered by Dennis Crompton\, January 13 at 6:00pm in the Walgreen Drama Center's STAMPS Auditorium\, followed by an opening reception for the exhibition at the Liberty Research Annex.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Ann Arbor Street Paintings: Oil on Panel
DESCRIPTION:Carlye Crisler\, a well known Ann Arbor artist of en plein air (outdoor) painting\, is originally from the Bucktown district of Chicago. Her goal is to paint an environment or neighborhood by showing activities\, people and lighting at a particular time of day\, capturing an extended sense of place. In this collection of en plein air oil paintings\, Crisler has taken on complicated places with many textures and divisions of space. She embraces ambiguity with shapes of buildings broken by shadow and parts of them hidden by other things barely determined. In addition to a painter of urban landscapes\, Crisler also is a costumer\, figurative portrait painter and metal sculptor.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Leaders and the Rest: Boundaries and Belonging at the University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Who belongs at the University of Michigan? Who gets to draw its boundaries? Michigan students have asked and answered these questions for nearly two hundred years. Against a backdrop of local\, national\, and global change\, they have negotiated their place and redefined their responsibilities. At times\, students have debated among each other\, sparred with faculty and administrators\, negotiated with community members\, and contended with politicians. In so doing\, they have shaped the physical campus\, the student body\, the meaning of community\, and the university’s mission as a public institution.\n\nThis exhibit showcases key moments of student expression\, politics\, and culture from the first decades of the university’s existence in Ann Arbor\, through the upheavals of world wars\, and to the social and cultural turmoil of the late-twentieth century.\n\nOn display January 4-February 25\, 2017\, Hatcher Library Gallery (Room 100).\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester initiative is presented with support from the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office. Additional support provided by the Department of History and the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

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

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:SAFETY OF AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES:  TECHNOLOGY AND POLICY
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Edwin Olson is Associate Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at U-M and Co-Director for Autonomous Driving Development at Toyota Research Institute.  He received his Ph.D. from MIT in 2008 for work in robotic mapping. At U-M\, he directs the APRIL Robotics Laboratory. At U-M’s Transportation Research Institute (TRI)\, he helps lead the creation of next-generation autonomous cars and safety systems.         \n\nWhile 35\,000 people died last year in the United States as a result of 
automobile accidents\, it is not the case that humans are bad drivers. Humans are 
astonishingly good drivers\, and we set a high bar for an autonomous alternative. In this talk\, Dr. Olson describes some of the challenges—why is driving so difficult for computers? How do we successfully marry autonomous technology to its human users? How do we know when an autonomous car is safe enough? \n\nThis is the fourth of a six-lecture series. The subject is The Future of Transportation: Don’t Turn in Your Car Keys Yet!

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:Moving Image: Landscape
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Landscape explores traditional notions of landscape through four very different time-based works by artists Jim Campbell\, Antti Laitinen\, Joanie Lemercier\, and Rick Silva.\n\nCampbell’s recent body of work\, including Seal Rock\, presents pixilated images of landscapes created with grids of LEDs. The low-resolution LEDs create a tension between representation and abstraction\, provoking viewers to interpret visual information on their own. In the three-channel video It’s My Island Laitinen builds his own island in the Baltic Sea by dragging two hundred sand bags into the water over a period of three months. The work explores ideas of nationality\, citizenship\, and identity as the artist creates his own single-citizen micro-nation. Lemercier’s computer-generated print Landforms uses patterns of black dots and projected light to create the illusion of three-dimensionality and movement when seen from a distance. The effects are more realistic than a still image\, but still unsettlingly artificial. Silva’s Render Garden explores the digitized landscape\, including remix and glitch aesthetics\, through software that endlessly generates new plant combinations.\n\nThroughout the next year UMMA will present a series of exhibitions drawn from the Borusan Contemporary Art Collection in Istanbul. The Borusan’s thirty-year-old collection includes significant works across a variety of genres\, and since 2011 it has focused on media arts. The works exhibited here address formal concerns such as abstraction and color\, and conceptual topics such as identity or ecological issues\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\,\nthe Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

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

SUMMARY:Exhibition: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:Lecture / Discussion:LSI Seminar Series: James Crowe\, M.D.\, Vanderbilt University Medical School
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThe human adaptive immune system is perhaps the most resilient emergent network of any of the complex self-organizing systems described to date. Despite the impressive capacity of microbial threats to cause infections or even pandemics\, with ever increasing numbers of pathogens\, the diversity of possible molecular recognition elements in the human immune system to recognize and defeat microbes exceeds that of the diversity of the pathogens. In this talk\, we will explore the enormous genetic and structural diversity of the antibody repertoire in man. We will explore various ways in which human antibodies recognize viral pathogens and inhibit virus replication and disease. Careful study of the structure and function of particular antibodies reveals general principles underlying intermolecular interactions that likely operate in most complex biomolecular systems.\n\nSpeaker:\nDr. Crowe is Professor of Pediatrics (Infectious Diseases)\, Pathology\, Microbiology and Immunology\, Ann Scott Carell Chair\, and Director of the Vanderbilt Vaccine Center. His laboratory studies the molecular\, genetic\, and structural basis of human immune responses to virus infection or vaccination. He has studied antibody-mediated immunity to a wide variety of viral pediatric pathogens\, including RSV\, MPV\, influenza\, rotavirus and norovirus\, and also agents of bioterror and emerging infectious diseases\, including chikungunya virus\, dengue viruses\, Ebola and Marburg viruses\, Zika virus and others. His group is working to develop new methods in computational immunology for rational design of vaccines and antibodies. He is the Director of the Human Immunome Project\, an ambitious effort to identify the sequence of all transcripts for adaptive immune receptors on the planet. He is an elected member of the National Academy of Medicine and has been the recipient of a number of major investigator awards for research\, including the Samuel Rosenthal Foundation Prize in Academic Pediatrics\, the E. Mead Johnson Award for Excellence in Pediatrics\, the Norman J. Siegel Award of the American Pediatric Society\, the Judson Daland Prize of the American Philosophical Society\, the Oswald Avery Award of the IDSA\, the Outstanding Investigator Award of the American Federation for Medical Research and others. He is an elected Fellow of the American Academy of Microbiology\, the American Association for the Advancement of Science\, the American Society for Clinical Investigation\, the Association of American Physicians\, the Infectious Diseases Society of America\, the American Pediatric Society\, and others.\n\nLunch provided.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series | Kamikaze Truckers: The Desperation and Excitement of Professional Drivers ahead of the Tokyo Olympics
DESCRIPTION:In many Japanese urban neighborhoods\, the road has been a space shared by cars\, bicycles\, pedestrians\, and kids at play. Traffic accidents and fatalities increased dramatically through the 1960s\, the start of the era of mass automobility in Japan\, when personal automobiles became affordable for the first time for the middle class. In this paper\, I suggest that it was not just the increase in motor vehicles that was to blame for the increase in traffic fatalities. In looking at the era of high-speed growth\, it is worth considering the particular threat that professional drivers posed to the shared space of the road. This paper uses the analytic of games and play to examine how “reckless” driving was incentivized ahead of the Tokyo Olympics\, and how it came to be critiqued. \n    \nJoshua Hotaka Roth is Professor of Anthropology at Mount Holyoke College. His publications include Brokered Homeland: Japanese Brazilian Migrants in Japan (Cornell Univ. Press)\, “Mean Spirited Sport: Japanese Brazilian Croquet in São Paulo’s Public Spaces” (Anthropological Quarterly)\, and “Heartfelt Driving: Discourses on Manners\, Safety\, and Emotion\,” (Journal of Asian Studies).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Commutative Algebra
DESCRIPTION:These two talks will be suggestive of what my thesis defense will be like\, \nwhenever that is. Similar to Eloisa's talk\, the first talk will give a selective review of the (linear) containment problem for symbolic powers of ideals in equicharacteristic rings\, with a view towards Harbourne's conjecture in the geometric setting and two published results in the non-regular setting. I'll then summarize key results of my thesis in user-friendly forms\, along with a recent improvement for tensor products of finitely-generated domains over algebraically closed fields\, based on talking with Mel and Karen in the fall. The second talk will sketch select ideas going into this general \"multinomial\" containment result\, along with suggesting initial applications for \"tensor power\" domains. \n\nI expect to give at least one \"comical\" example of using these results in tandem\, possibly involving the perfect number 28.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Analysis/Probability Learning Seminar
DESCRIPTION:We will continue our discussion on Marcus-Spielman-Srivastava's interlacing polynomial method. This time we will focus on their result on existence of an infinite family of Ramanujan graphs of any degree. A Ramanujan graph is a d-regular graph with its adjacency matrix has all non-trivial eigenvalues lie in between -2\sqrt{d-1} and 2\sqrt{d-1}. Their main result is the following: For any Ramanujan graph G\, there exists a 2-lift of G which is also a Ramanujan graph. In particular\, since the properties of bipartite and (c\,d)-biregular of a graph automatically pass to its 2-lifts\, the result also extends to infinite family of bipartite Ramanujan graphs of degree d and (c\,d)-regular bipartite Ramanujan graphs. \n\nSimilar to their proof of Kadison-Singer problem we dicussed in last semester\, their proof is the following:\n1. The expected characteristic polynomial of the signing adjacency matrix correspond to a random 2-lift of G has its eigenvalue nicely bounded. \n2. Using interlacing polynomial method\, there exists one 2-lift of G such that roots of its characteristic polynomial of the signing adjacency matrix has the same bound for the expected characteristic polynomial. \n Speaker(s): Han Huang (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:An Up-Close Look at Arab and Muslim Americans
DESCRIPTION:American Muslims and Arab Americans are often projected negatively in mainstream media. Newspapers use key words such as extremists\, terrorists and fanatics to describe Arabs. \n\nThe present day Arab stereotype parallels the image of Jews in pre-Nazi Germany\, where Jews were painted as dark\, shifty-eyed\, venal and threateningly different people. These representations of Arab and Muslim Americans have creat¬ed a general mistrust and dislike among Americans. \n\nWho are Muslim and Arab-Americans? Why are they portrayed negatively? Who benefits from these phenomena? This class will help answer these and many other questions.\n\nInstructor Adnan Salhi will lead this study group for those 50 and over for 90 minutes on the last Thursday of January\, February\, April and May.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CANCELLED: EEB Thursday Seminar: Microbial community dynamics and function at micro-scales.
DESCRIPTION:In this talk I will present our work showing how ecological interactions control the assembly and function of microbial communities at micro-scales. Using model marine particles composed of a variety of biopolymers commonly found in the ocean\, I will show how microbial interactions such as cross-feeding and social cheating control community dynamics\, leading to rapid successions on particles\, while decreasing the metabolic rate of the system by slowing down or even blocking the particle degradation process. Particle degradation slow-down occurs because of competition for space between primary degraders and cheaters or cross-feeders\, which act as parasites. The results indicate that the rates of carbon cycling in the environment can be under direct control of community ecology processes that unfold at micro-scales. Finally\, I will also discuss how communities that self-assemble on particles made of different substrates converge to a set of species that display ‘universal’ dynamics\, which are independent of the substrate and instead driven by the ecological wiring of the community.\n\nLight refreshments served at 4 p.m.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Topology
DESCRIPTION:There has been a recent surge in studying surfaces of infinite type\, i.e. surfaces with infinitely-generated fundamental groups.  In this talk\, we will focus on their mapping class groups\, often called big mapping class groups. In contrast to the finite-type case\, there are many open questions regarding the basic algebraic and topological properties of big mapping class groups. I will discuss several such questions and provide some answers.  In particular\, I will focus on automorphisms of pure mapping class groups and topological generating sets. This work is joint with Priyam Patel. Speaker(s): Nicholas Vlamis (UM)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:WINTER 2017 COMMUNICATION & MEDIA SPEAKER SERIES Perceived Realism\, Narrative Persuasion\, and the Beholder’s Eye
DESCRIPTION:Much\, but not all\, research conducted since the late 1970s has demonstrated a relationship between people’s judgments of media content realism and the potential impact of that content. The same research has struggled to identify the conceptual dimensions people use to make judgments about realism.  This talk will briefly present the results of two experiments that look at the thoughts people report having while consuming written and filmic narratives and how those thoughts relate to their scores on perceived realism and narrative engagement scales. Then the thoughts reported will be used as a basis to discuss alternative or additional ways to conceptualize the concepts of perceived realism and unrealism\, and how those concepts could be operationalized.   \n\nRick Busselle’s research and teaching focuses on how mediated stories influence our perceptions and understandings of social issues related to poverty\, crime\, addiction\, and mental illness. His research focuses specifically on engagement with narratives\, perceived realism of stories\, and the social construction of reality through media. His work has been published in Communication Theory\, Communication Research\, and The Journal of Broadcasting & Electronic Media\, among other scholarly journals and academic proceedings.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:FAST Lecture: Multispectral Imaging: Shedding Light on Ancient Paint Surfaces
DESCRIPTION:The technical study of ancient polychromy often relies on investigative techniques that require sampling and comparative analysis using instrumentation. Such techniques are not always achievable\, due to their very dependence on samples\, the acquisition of which may be restricted depending on the collection or site. For this reason\, conservators at the Kelsey Museum have explored the use of non-invasive analytical and imaging techniques to investigate ancient paint surfaces. One of these techniques is Multispectral Imaging (MSI). MSI is non-destructive\, affordable\, and easily achievable in most settings\, since it requires only a modified camera\, lens filters\, and portable light sources. This talk will present case studies highlighting recent endeavors to optimize MSI research for field settings. \n\nReception 5:30 pm\, Lecture 6:00 pm.\n\nFAST lectures are free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Performance:Step Afrika!
DESCRIPTION:Step Afrika! is the first professional dance company dedicated to the art and tradition of stepping. Over the past 21 years Step Afrika! has grown to become one of the top 10 African American Dance Companies in the US and Washington DC’s largest African American arts organization. Step Afrika! began as an exchange program with the Soweto Dance Theatre of Johannesburg\, South Africa\, and has expanded to become a national and international touring company presenting performance\, residencies and workshops worldwide. The Company blends percussive dance styles practiced by historically African American fraternities and sororities\, African traditional dance and influences from a variety of other dance and art forms. Performances are much more than dance shows\; they integrate songs\, storytelling\, humor\, and audience participation. The blend of technique\, agility\, and pure energy makes each performance unique and leaves the audience with their hearts pounding. Step Afrika! promotes stepping as an educational tool for young people\, focusing on teamwork\, academic achievement and cross-cultural understanding. This event was planned with the goal of bringing awareness of the performance art of stepping to the campus community\, while simultaneously educating the audience about stepping’s traditional African roots and how it correlates with Black Greek Letter Organizations.\n\nBox Office opens at 6:30pm for the 7pm start time. Tickets are FREE but required for entry.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:ARCHIGRAM EXHIBITION OPENING
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition on View January 14 - February 19\nThis exhibition opening reception begins after Dennis Crompton's lecture in STAMPS Auditorium in the Walgreen Drama Center.\nThis exhibition celebrates the imagination and ingenuity of Archigram\, the British architects whose dynamic and provocative vision of future life brought the pop spirit to the architecture avant garde in 1960s Britain.\nVibrant\, playful\, optimistic\, and iconoclastic\, the visionary architectural projects presented by Archigram in exhibitions\, collages\, drawings and film\, played an important role in 1960s pop culture and have an enduring influence on architecture today. Archigram was founded in London in 1961 around a nucleus of young architects: Warren Chalk\, Peter Cook\, Dennis Crompton\, David Greene\, Ron Herron and Michael Webb. Inspired by pop culture\, advances in technology and the belief that architects had a responsibility to develop new ways of responding to social change\, the group rebelled against the conservative architectural establishment by launching a magazine – entitled Archigram – to express its ideas. \nOrganized by Dennis Crompton for Archigram. Supported by the Johe Fund. \nJoin us also for an opening lecture delivered by Dennis Crompton\, January 13 at 6:00pm in the Walgreen Drama Center's STAMPS Auditorium\, followed by an opening reception for the exhibition at the Liberty Research Annex.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Ann Arbor Street Paintings: Oil on Panel
DESCRIPTION:Carlye Crisler\, a well known Ann Arbor artist of en plein air (outdoor) painting\, is originally from the Bucktown district of Chicago. Her goal is to paint an environment or neighborhood by showing activities\, people and lighting at a particular time of day\, capturing an extended sense of place. In this collection of en plein air oil paintings\, Crisler has taken on complicated places with many textures and divisions of space. She embraces ambiguity with shapes of buildings broken by shadow and parts of them hidden by other things barely determined. In addition to a painter of urban landscapes\, Crisler also is a costumer\, figurative portrait painter and metal sculptor.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Leaders and the Rest: Boundaries and Belonging at the University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Who belongs at the University of Michigan? Who gets to draw its boundaries? Michigan students have asked and answered these questions for nearly two hundred years. Against a backdrop of local\, national\, and global change\, they have negotiated their place and redefined their responsibilities. At times\, students have debated among each other\, sparred with faculty and administrators\, negotiated with community members\, and contended with politicians. In so doing\, they have shaped the physical campus\, the student body\, the meaning of community\, and the university’s mission as a public institution.\n\nThis exhibit showcases key moments of student expression\, politics\, and culture from the first decades of the university’s existence in Ann Arbor\, through the upheavals of world wars\, and to the social and cultural turmoil of the late-twentieth century.\n\nOn display January 4-February 25\, 2017\, Hatcher Library Gallery (Room 100).\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester initiative is presented with support from the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

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:Moving Image: Landscape
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Landscape explores traditional notions of landscape through four very different time-based works by artists Jim Campbell\, Antti Laitinen\, Joanie Lemercier\, and Rick Silva.\n\nCampbell’s recent body of work\, including Seal Rock\, presents pixilated images of landscapes created with grids of LEDs. The low-resolution LEDs create a tension between representation and abstraction\, provoking viewers to interpret visual information on their own. In the three-channel video It’s My Island Laitinen builds his own island in the Baltic Sea by dragging two hundred sand bags into the water over a period of three months. The work explores ideas of nationality\, citizenship\, and identity as the artist creates his own single-citizen micro-nation. Lemercier’s computer-generated print Landforms uses patterns of black dots and projected light to create the illusion of three-dimensionality and movement when seen from a distance. The effects are more realistic than a still image\, but still unsettlingly artificial. Silva’s Render Garden explores the digitized landscape\, including remix and glitch aesthetics\, through software that endlessly generates new plant combinations.\n\nThroughout the next year UMMA will present a series of exhibitions drawn from the Borusan Contemporary Art Collection in Istanbul. The Borusan’s thirty-year-old collection includes significant works across a variety of genres\, and since 2011 it has focused on media arts. The works exhibited here address formal concerns such as abstraction and color\, and conceptual topics such as identity or ecological issues\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\,\nthe Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

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

SUMMARY:Exhibition: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.

DESCRIPTION:Mindfulness@Umich is a program that is available to all University of Michigan students\, faculty\, and staff. The sessions are 30 minutes long\, flexible\, and free.\n\nThe sessions are led by a group of students and staff who have received training to lead the 30 minute sessions. They also have personal practices.The meditations are guided (which means there will be speaking throughout the meditation) and they ​last ​for 25 minutes. We typically sit in chairs. We often end the practice with a short metta or gratitude meditation. At the very end of the session\, we'll spend a few minutes talking about issues that may have arisen in your meditation\, recent research\, or ways to practice outside of the session.\n\nEmail dkozikow@umich.edu to be added to the Mindfulness list!

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EIHS Symposium: From Archives to Nail Guns: Practical Applications of Graduate History Training
DESCRIPTION:Learn how a team of graduate students from diverse fields and chronological specializations collaborated to produce the exhibit “The Leaders and the Rest: Boundaries and Belonging at the University of Michigan” (on display at the Hatcher Graduate Library Gallery\, Room 100\, until February 25). Turned loose in the archive to find compelling stories\, they identified four episodes in U-M history around which to organize the exhibit. The challenge then became interpreting those stories for a visual medium\, linking them thematically\, and constructing a physical exhibit that conveyed those connections. Members of the student team will talk about the challenges and rewards of this project\, how it intersected with their graduate training\, and what they learned by having to take into account a variety of stakeholders as they developed historical interpretations.\n\nFeaturing:\nMichelle McClellan (Assistant Professor\, History\, Residential College)\nJonathan Farr (Lecturer\, History)\nNora Krinitsky (Doctoral Candidate\, History)\nEmily Price (Doctoral Candidate\, History)\nKate Silbert (Doctoral Candidate\, History and Women's Studies)\n\nFree and open to the public. Lunch provided. \n\nThis event is part of the Friday Series of the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:PhonDi Discussion Group
DESCRIPTION:The discussion on stress in Arabic in the literature has primarily focused on the phonological constraints/rules behind the grammar of stress in Arabic. A rather limited number of studies delve into the topic of stress acquisition. The objective of this study is to investigate into the acquisition of stress and how it is biased by frequency. Following the usage-based approach to language acquisition\, it is predicted that the more frequent a stress pattern is\, the better the performance of the learners.\n\nTo examine this prediction\, I conducted an experiment consisting of three tasks: stress identification\, lexical decision\, and stress production. The stimuli implemented in the experiment are real and nonsense words that have contrastive frequency of stress pattern. By exposing these stimuli to the learners of Arabic in the experiment\, a biased performance preferring frequent stress pattern is predicted.\n\nThe results confirm this prediction\, as the participants react to words with frequent pattern with significantly faster reaction time and accuracy in the production task. Additionally\, it is found that the frequency of the stress pattern seems to interfere with word recognition as nonsense words with frequent stress pattern tend to be perceived as real words by the participants. These findings strongly support the role of frequency in language learning and processing.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Applied Interdisciplinary Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:A substantial body of terramechanics research has been performed at the U.S. Army Tank Automotive Research\, Development\, and Engineering Center (TARDEC) and the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) that led to the development of various mobility prediction methodologies including the NATO Reference Mobility Model (NRMM). These methodologies are numerical algorithms for predicting cross-country vehicle movement at length scales of several meters to several kilometers. They are based on empirical results drawn from years of resource-intensive experimental testing and have been used widely by the military community. As a consequence of their empirical nature\, while the methods have been useful for prediction of large\, heavy vehicle mobility\, they can neither be extrapolated to today's vehicle designs containing advanced technologies nor are applicable to lightweight robotic vehicles. Hence is the need for a physics-based approach that would enable a high fidelity mobility prediction.  \n\nThis research is aimed at augmenting the role that computational multibody dynamics (MBD) plays in characterizing the dynamics of discrete media in terramechanics applications. The discrete element method (DEM) is a powerful\, emerging tool for analyzing these phenomena. The use of novel frictional-contact modeling techniques\, such as the differential variational inequality (DVI) approach\, which complement existing penalty/regularization approaches\, in combination with a mapping of the solution algorithms onto commodity massively parallel hardware is envisioned to lead to a major breakthrough in our ability to simulate the dynamics of tracked and wheeled vehicles operating on deformable terrain. \n\nThe challenge\, however\, is the computational performance of such approaches in terms of efficiency and robustness which are addressed in this research. The research focuses on the use of second order optimization methods to improve the robustness of the DVI method for large multiscale MBD problems. This research thrust is predicated on the assertion that bringing higher order information into the numerical solution will improve its rate of convergence.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Financial/Actuarial Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:The theory of mean field type control aims at describing the behaviour of a large number of interacting agents using a common feedback. A phenomenon that have raised a lot of interest recently is called congestion: the agents try move while avoiding crowded regions. We will present a system of partial differential equations (PDE) arising in this setting: a forward Fokker-Planck equation and a backward Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation describe respectively the evolution of the density of agents and of the value function. We are able to prove the existence and uniqueness of suitably defined weak solutions\, which are characterized as the optima of two optimal control problems in duality. Based on this optimal control viewpoint\, we develop an augmented Lagrangian algorithm solving numerically this mean field type control problem. This is joint work with Yves Achdou.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Seminars | Naturalness in the Dark
DESCRIPTION:The search for physics beyond the Standard Model at the LHC is largely oriented towards new particles associated with solutions to the electroweak hierarchy problem. While the precise character of these partner states may vary from model to model\, they typically possess large QCD production rates favorable for detection at hadron colliders. Null results in searches for partner particles during Run 1 of the LHC have placed the idea of electroweak naturalness under increasing strain. In this talk I'll discuss a broad class of natural theories where the new degrees of freedom relevant for naturalness lie in hidden sectors and are largely unconstrained by LHC data. Rather than rendering electroweak naturalness untestable\, they give rise to entirely new signs of naturalness at the LHC\, including displaced decays and other exotic signatures. They also furnish a variety of viable dark matter candidates testable at current and future experiments.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:SynSem Discussion Group
DESCRIPTION:We are reading a paper by Beltrama on Intensification\, gradability and social perception: the case of totally.\n\nAbstract\nThe notion of social meaning\, widely investigated in sociolinguistics\, is\nrarely considered in experimental semantics\, mainly due to the assumption that this\ntype of meaning is relatively independent from the semantic properties of its carrier.\nFollowing a recent strand of inquiry (Acton and Potts (2014)\, Glass (2015))\, this\npaper aims to fill this gap by exploring the role of semantic and pragmatic factors\nin determining the salience of the social meaning of a linguistic expression. Relying\non a social perception task\, it is shown that listeners perceive the social meaning\nof the intensifier totally − measured in terms of Solidarity and Status attributes\n− as particularly prominent in situations in which the morpheme combines with\na commitment scale provided by the pragmatics\, as opposed to when it combines\nwith a scale lexically supplied by the subsequent predicate. This evidence suggests\nthat listeners keep track of semantic information when making social evaluations\nabout speech\, pointing to social perception as a novel methodology for research in\nexperimental semantics.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Combinatorics
DESCRIPTION:The combinatorial R-matrix is the unique affine sl_n crystal isomorphism between A x B and B x A\, where A and B are finite-dimensional affine crystals corresponding to rectangular partitions. This map can be described combinatorially in terms of rectification of skew tableaux.\n\nIn this talk\, I will present a construction of a ``geometric R-matrix\,'' a rational map which has properties analogous to those of the combinatorial R-matrix\, and which tropicalizes to a piecewise-linear formula for the combinatorial R-matrix. The construction makes use of Noumi and Yamada's notion of ``tropical row insertion\,'' as well as the Grassmannian and the loop group. When both partitions are a single row\, we recover results of Yamada and Lam-Pylyavskyy. Speaker(s): Gabriel Frieden (U. Michigan)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Robot-Enabled Research Efforts to Promote Resiliency and Sustainability of Geo-Systems
DESCRIPTION:Recent advances in robotics pave new directions for our society and are destined to impact the entire breadth of the geoprofession (engineering and science)\, including the way we characterize\, design\, monitor and quantify risk of geo-systems. Robotic platforms provide an opportunity for spatially distributed\, mobile\, sensing that enable unprecedented data-driven characterization opportunities and optimized monitoring on the most critical areas and with the appropriate types of measurements. Robotic platforms not only have unprecedented sensing capabilities\, but also outstanding\, untapped\, computational capabilities that can promote data fusion and lead to better characterization of the interaction of geosystems with the environment. Examples of ongoing research efforts related to post-earthquake reconnaissance and methane emissions from modern landfills using the capabilities of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles and Unmanned Land-based Vehicles to improve our understanding of geo-processes and promote resiliency and sustainability of geo-infrastructure systems will be presented.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Post Post-It
DESCRIPTION:As the launch for the Detroit School Project RIW Winter lecture series\, we are delighted to host Anya Sirota for a lecture and conversation about community-based design and architecture in Detroit. Thank you for forwarding this message. \n\nAnya Sirota is Assistant Professor of Architecture at Taubman College and the principal architect at Akoaki\, a Detroit-based art and architecture practice with an established reputation for original projects that materialize utopian ambitions in complex urban scenarios (www.akoaki.com). A prolific innovator whose work spans film\, print\, performance\, and architecture\, Sirota is a driving force behind multiple collective avant-garde productions in Detroit\, including the Detroit Culture Council\, the One Mile Project and One Mile Zine\, the Mothership\, and the Oakland Urban Farm\, as well many other ongoing projects\, temporary exhibits\, and targeted actions aimed at sustaining community in SE Michigan and in France.  In her practice and her teaching\, Sirota focuses on the relationship between architecture and contemporary cultural production\, critically re-evaluating how architecture can sustain heritage and participate in public discourse. \n\nOn Friday\, January 27 from 4:15-6:15 PM in the Rackham West Conference Room\, Sirota will discuss with us her vision for community-based learning and design\, the partnership process\, and \"radical preservation.\" Please join us!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:ARCHIGRAM EXHIBITION OPENING
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition on View January 14 - February 19\nThis exhibition opening reception begins after Dennis Crompton's lecture in STAMPS Auditorium in the Walgreen Drama Center.\nThis exhibition celebrates the imagination and ingenuity of Archigram\, the British architects whose dynamic and provocative vision of future life brought the pop spirit to the architecture avant garde in 1960s Britain.\nVibrant\, playful\, optimistic\, and iconoclastic\, the visionary architectural projects presented by Archigram in exhibitions\, collages\, drawings and film\, played an important role in 1960s pop culture and have an enduring influence on architecture today. Archigram was founded in London in 1961 around a nucleus of young architects: Warren Chalk\, Peter Cook\, Dennis Crompton\, David Greene\, Ron Herron and Michael Webb. Inspired by pop culture\, advances in technology and the belief that architects had a responsibility to develop new ways of responding to social change\, the group rebelled against the conservative architectural establishment by launching a magazine – entitled Archigram – to express its ideas. \nOrganized by Dennis Crompton for Archigram. Supported by the Johe Fund. \nJoin us also for an opening lecture delivered by Dennis Crompton\, January 13 at 6:00pm in the Walgreen Drama Center's STAMPS Auditorium\, followed by an opening reception for the exhibition at the Liberty Research Annex.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Ann Arbor Street Paintings: Oil on Panel
DESCRIPTION:Carlye Crisler\, a well known Ann Arbor artist of en plein air (outdoor) painting\, is originally from the Bucktown district of Chicago. Her goal is to paint an environment or neighborhood by showing activities\, people and lighting at a particular time of day\, capturing an extended sense of place. In this collection of en plein air oil paintings\, Crisler has taken on complicated places with many textures and divisions of space. She embraces ambiguity with shapes of buildings broken by shadow and parts of them hidden by other things barely determined. In addition to a painter of urban landscapes\, Crisler also is a costumer\, figurative portrait painter and metal sculptor.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Art & Healing: American Indian Textiles & Beads
DESCRIPTION:Suzanne L. Cross\, Ph.D.\, Associate Professor Emeritus\, Michigan State University and member of the Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe\, is a shawl maker and beadwork artist. She created this body of work to increase awareness and emphasize cardiac health for American Indian women by informing\, supporting\, and encouraging self-care and the value of changing life ways. Shawls are symbols of womanhood and are of significance to many American Indian tribal cultures. Now-a-day traditional female dancers complete their regalia by carrying the shawl over their left arm which is closest to the heart\, and the fringe sways to the heartbeat rhythm of the drum.

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:The Leaders and the Rest: Boundaries and Belonging at the University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Who belongs at the University of Michigan? Who gets to draw its boundaries? Michigan students have asked and answered these questions for nearly two hundred years. Against a backdrop of local\, national\, and global change\, they have negotiated their place and redefined their responsibilities. At times\, students have debated among each other\, sparred with faculty and administrators\, negotiated with community members\, and contended with politicians. In so doing\, they have shaped the physical campus\, the student body\, the meaning of community\, and the university’s mission as a public institution.\n\nThis exhibit showcases key moments of student expression\, politics\, and culture from the first decades of the university’s existence in Ann Arbor\, through the upheavals of world wars\, and to the social and cultural turmoil of the late-twentieth century.\n\nOn display January 4-February 25\, 2017\, Hatcher Library Gallery (Room 100).\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester initiative is presented with support from the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office. Additional support provided by the Department of History and the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Constructing Gender
DESCRIPTION:Ask U-M students\, alumni\, or fans what symbolizes the University of Michigan\, and you’ll likely hear the Big House\, the Diag\, along with the Michigan Union and the Michigan League. Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

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:Moving Image: Landscape
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Landscape explores traditional notions of landscape through four very different time-based works by artists Jim Campbell\, Antti Laitinen\, Joanie Lemercier\, and Rick Silva.\n\nCampbell’s recent body of work\, including Seal Rock\, presents pixilated images of landscapes created with grids of LEDs. The low-resolution LEDs create a tension between representation and abstraction\, provoking viewers to interpret visual information on their own. In the three-channel video It’s My Island Laitinen builds his own island in the Baltic Sea by dragging two hundred sand bags into the water over a period of three months. The work explores ideas of nationality\, citizenship\, and identity as the artist creates his own single-citizen micro-nation. Lemercier’s computer-generated print Landforms uses patterns of black dots and projected light to create the illusion of three-dimensionality and movement when seen from a distance. The effects are more realistic than a still image\, but still unsettlingly artificial. Silva’s Render Garden explores the digitized landscape\, including remix and glitch aesthetics\, through software that endlessly generates new plant combinations.\n\nThroughout the next year UMMA will present a series of exhibitions drawn from the Borusan Contemporary Art Collection in Istanbul. The Borusan’s thirty-year-old collection includes significant works across a variety of genres\, and since 2011 it has focused on media arts. The works exhibited here address formal concerns such as abstraction and color\, and conceptual topics such as identity or ecological issues\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\,\nthe Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

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

SUMMARY:Exhibition: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.
