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.

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:UM Bicentennial Special Van Vlack Lecture: Quasi-Periodic Crystals – A Paradigm Shift in Crystallography
DESCRIPTION:Crystallography has been one of the mature sciences. Over the years\, the modern science of crystallography that started by experimenting with x-ray diffraction from crystals in 1912\, has developed a major paradigm – that all crystals are ordered and periodic. Indeed\, this was the basis for the definition of “crystal” in textbooks of crystallography and x-ray diffraction. Based upon a vast number of experimental data\, constantly improving research tools\, and deepening theoretical understanding of the structure of crystalline materials no revolution was anticipated in our understanding the atomic order of solids.\n \nHowever\, such revolution did happen with the discovery of the Icosahedral phase\, the first quasi-periodic crystal (QC) in 1982\, and its announcement in 1984. QCs are ordered materials\, but their atomic order is quasiperiodic rather than periodic\, enabling formation of crystal symmetries\, such as icosahedral symmetry\, which cannot exist in periodic materials. The discovery created deep cracks in this paradigm\, but the acceptance by the crystallographers' community of the new class of ordered crystals did not happen in one day. In fact it took almost a decade for QC order to be accepted by most crystallographers. The official stamp of approval came in a form of a new definition of “Crystal” by the International Union of Crystallographers. The paradigm that all crystals are periodic has thus been changed. It is clear now that although most crystals are ordered and periodic\, a good number of them are ordered and quasi-periodic.\n \nWhile believers and nonbelievers were debating\, a large volume of experimental and theoretical studies was published\, a result of a relentless effort of many groups around the world. Quasi-periodic materials have developed into an exciting interdisciplinary science. This talk will outline the discovery of QCs and describe the important role of electron microscopy as an enabling discovery tool.

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:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.\n\n\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

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:Workshop / Seminar:CM Theory Seminar | Programmable Matter: Using 3D Printed Elastic Instabilities to Direct Shape Transformation
DESCRIPTION:3D printed programmable matter has the potential to revolutionize manufacturing in fields ranging from organs-on-a-chip to architecture to soft robotics. By expanding the pallet of 3D printable materials to include the use stimuli responsive inks\, this nascent 3D printing technique promises precise control over patterned shape transformations. With the goal of creating a new manufacturing technique\, we have recently introduced a biomimetic printing platform that enables the direct control of local anisotropy into both the elastic moduli and the swelling response of the ink. \n\nWe have drawn inspiration from nastic plant movements to design a phytomimetic ink and printing process that enables patterned dynamic shape change upon exposure to water\, and possibly other external stimuli. Our novel fiber-reinforced hydrogel ink enables local control over anisotropies not only in the elastic moduli\, but more importantly in the swelling. Upon hydration\, the hydrogel changes shape according the arbitrarily complex microstructure imparted during the printing process. \n\nTo use this process as a design tool\, we must solve the inverse problem of prescribing the pattern of anisotropies required to generate a given curved target structure. We show how to do this by constructing a theory of anisotropic plates and shells that can respond to local metric changes induced by anisotropic swelling. A series of experiments corroborate our model by producing a range of target shapes inspired by the morphological diversity of flower petals.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CSAAW Talk: Modeling smoking and depression comorbidity
DESCRIPTION:Smoking and depression are major contributors to mortality and disability in the US. They are also significantly associated with each other\, with higher rates of smoking among depressed populations compared to the general population. Research suggests that smoking and depression may be subject to feedback effects\, as depression is known to predict future smoking\, while smoking also predicts future depression. These dynamics at the individual level could have important implications for population health outcomes. \n\nI aim to develop a joint model of smoking and depression comorbidity that uses nationally representative data to project future trajectories of smoking\, depression\, and mortality in the US. A model of smoking behavior and depression co-morbidity could explore policy approaches likely to produce the largest population health gains\, and guide decision-making to address smoking disparities by mental health status.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:PhonDi Discussion Group
DESCRIPTION:Björn Köhnlein will give a presentation on \"Prosodic and segmental structure at the interface of synchrony and diachrony\"\n\nAbstract\nProsody\, the structure above the individual sounds of a language (e.g. syllables\, stress / foot structure\, intonation)\, often interacts with segmental structure in language change. This talk discusses the complexity of such processes\, with a focus on the relationship between vowel height / vowel duration\, obstruent voicing\, intonational tone\, and abstract prosodic categories (syllable structure\, foot structure). As I show on the basis of data from Continental West Germanic\, such interactions can lead to a variety of innovations in languages: for instance\, intonational languages can introduce lexically contrastive tonal contours (similar to tonal languages)\; some stressed vowels can lengthen while others shorten at the same time\; seemingly opaque phonological rules can emerge\, as well as apparent cases of subtractive morphology.\n\nThe talk also addresses the question how speakers integrate such novel patterns into the grammar. In a nutshell\, I shall argue that a more refined set of prosodic representations resolves many emerging problems and helps to improve our understanding of the interface between synchronic and diachronic phonology. The main idea is that prosodic structure can sometimes be retained even after corresponding segmental information has been deleted.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Drumming Literature into the Ground: Dada and the Materiality of Sound
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for the German Studies Colloquium for a talk on \n\nFriday\, February 10th\, 2 pm\n3308 MLB\n\nDrumming Literature into the Ground: Dada and the Materiality of Sound\n\nTyler Whitney\nUniversity of Michigan\n \nScholarship on early Dada has productively highlighted the movement’s innovative approach to visual practices of photomontage and the heterogeneous juxtaposition of found objects.  Transferred to the acoustic register\, scholars have focused on the group’s unique contributions to sound poetry\, oral recitation\, and the reconfiguration of acoustical relations between performers and audience members.  These existing studies have\, however\, tended to analyze the movement’s take on sound art exclusively in terms of the voice\, articulation\, and the physiology of speech.  What has remained absent is any consideration of the reception of sound\, of listening and the ear.  Drawing on my current book project exploring the interaction between acoustical modernity and literary modernism\, this paper will analyze several literary works by the Dada writer and performer Richard Huelsenbeck as an articulation of what I term modernity’s tympanic regime\, that is\, a historically specific set of material and discursive practices predicated on processes of intermedial transduction and physical contact between vibrating surfaces.  In doing so\, I seek to write the ear back into the history of Dada\, exposing the group’s strategic mobilization of noise in the service of sonic warfare\, or\, the modulation of mood and affect via percussive effects and their textual inscription. \n\nFor a copy of the paper\, please contact Julia Hell (hell@umich.edu).\n\nFree and open to the public - visit our website at www.lsa.umich.edu/german/events for updates and details.\n\nFor further information\, also contact Julia Hell at hell@umich.edu

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Applied Interdisciplinary Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:Piezoelectric material has drawn enormous attention in recent decades due to its ability to convert mechanical deformation energy into electrical potential energy\, and vice versa. It has been applied to both energy harvesting and passive vibration control applications. In this talk\, we will discuss the effect of piezoelectric material on the stability of a flexible flag using a fully coupled fluid-solid-electric model. An inviscid vortex-sheet model and a linear electro-mechanical model are combined to describe the problem. We find that the critical flutter speed is increased due to the extra damping effect of piezoelectric material\, and can also be altered by tuning the output inductance-resistance circuit. Optimal resistances and inductances are found that either maximize or minimize the flutter speed. The former application is useful for vibration control while the latter is important for energy harvesting. We will also briefly discuss other recent projects including snake locomotion and vortex wake dynamics in channels. Speaker(s): Xiaolin Wang (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CANCELLED:  Theoretical statistics is the theory of applied statistics:  How to think about what we do
DESCRIPTION:Foundations of Belief & Decision Making Lecture\n\nWorking scientists and engineers commonly feel that philosophy is a waste of time.  But theoretical and philosophical principles can guide practice\, so it makes sense for us to keep our philosophical foundations up to date.  Much of the history of statistics can be interpreted as a series of expansions and inclusions:  formalizations of procedures and ideas which had been previously considered outside the bounds of formal statistics.  In this talk we discuss several such episodes\, including the successful (in my view) incorporations of hierarchical modeling and statistical graphics into Bayesian data analysis\, and the bad ideas (in my view) of null hypothesis significance testing and attempts to compute the posterior probability of a model being true.  I'll discuss my own philosophy of statistics and also the holes in my current philosophical framework.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Geometry
DESCRIPTION:Matveev and Piergallini independently showed that\, with a small number of known exceptions\, any triangulation of a three-manifold can be transformed into any other triangulation of the same three-manifold with the same number of vertices\, via a sequence of 2-3 and 3-2 moves. We can interpret this as showing that the \"2-3 Pachner graph\" of such triangulations is connected. This is useful for defining invariants of a three-manifold based on the triangulation. However\, there are \"would-be\" invariants that can only be defined on triangulations with certain properties\, for example 1-efficiency or having only essential edges. Unfortunately\, there are no similar connectivity results for the subgraphs of the Pachner graph with such properties. In this talk\, I will describe a new connectivity result for a property implied by both 1-efficiency and essential edges: that of the triangulation having no degree one edges.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Seminar | Radioactive Iron Rain: Evidence of a Recent Nearby Supernova Explosion
DESCRIPTION:A very close supernova explosion could have caused a mass extinction of life in Earth. In 1996\, Brian Fields\, the late Dave Schramm and the speaker proposed looking for unstable isotopes such as Iron 60 that could have been deposited by a recent nearby supernova explosion. A group from the Technical University of Munich has discovered Iron 60 in deep-ocean sediments and ferromanganese crusts due to one or more supernovae that exploded O(100) parsecs away about 2.5 million years ago. These results have recently been confirmed by a group from the Australian National University\, and the Munich group has also discovered supernova Iron 60 in lunar rock samples and in microfossils of magnetotactic bacteria. \nThis colloquium will discuss the data and their interpretation in terms of supernova models\, and the possible implications for life on Earth.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Combinatorics
DESCRIPTION:The linear system |D| of a divisor D on a metric graph has the structure of a cell complex. And the set R(D) of corresponding tropical rational functions has the structure of a tropical semimodule. We introduce the anchor divisors and anchor cells in it - they serve as the landmarks for us to compute the f-vector of the complex and find all cells in the complex. Then we compute the minimal set of generators of R(D) using the landmarks. We apply these methods to some examples - namely the canonical linear systems of some small trivalent graphs. Fixing the graph-theoretic type of a metric graph\, we discuss the subdivision of the cone of metrics by the combinatorial structure of D.\n Speaker(s): Bo Lin (UC Berkeley)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Early Stages of Continental Rifting: Top-down and Bottom-up Perspectives
DESCRIPTION:Continental rifting is a key facet of plate tectonics that can evolve into ocean basins. The dynamics of continental break-up has been studied for decades\, yet questions remain about the origin of rifts. In this work we investigate the onset of continental two regions: the Natron Rift in Tanzania and the broadly deforming island of Madagascar. We first quantify surface motions with high precision Global Navigation Satellite System / Global Positioning System (GNSS/GPS) data. We find slip along the Natron Rift coincident with volcanic activity at a nearby volcano that appears to be localized along the major border fault. In Madagascar surface observations indicate differential extensional and transform movements between northern and southern Madagascar. We then employ analytical and numerical models to assess the relative roles of long-term tectonic forces and short-term magmatic processes on our examples of narrow and broad continental rifting. Our work suggests that in regions of broad deformation coupling to upwelling and diverging asthenospheric flow is consistent with surface observations\, and in narrow continental rifts volcanism is key in promoting rifting processes.

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.

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.

DESCRIPTION:How can we \"see\" four-dimensional objects? The best we can do is look at three-dimensional \"shadows\": just as a shadow of a three-dimensional object squishes it into the two-dimensional plane\, we can squish a four-dimensional shape into three-dimensional space\, where we can then make a 3D printed model of it.\n\nWe will explore the sphere in four-dimensional space\, the four-dimensional versions of the Platonic solids\, and various 3D printed sculptures\, puzzles\, and virtual reality experiences that have come from thinking about these things.

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:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.\n\n\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

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:Workshop / Seminar:ASP Workshop | Photography at the Nexus of Armenian Studies and Visual Culture
DESCRIPTION:This workshop is the first in a series of discussions about photographs as objects with which to trace the Armenian past and present. How do we read photographic images? How can photographs be deployed as autonomous sources for reading the past\, rather than as props for written texts? How can they be used as a way to think about material production? We will reflect on how photography complements the study of Armenian history at the same time as it enriches and questions the field of visual culture. The notion of witnessing and rendering legible objects of photographs will be interrogated. What do photographs hide and what do they reveal? How can we read the internal tensions that photographs visualize productively to write about trauma and violence?\n\nComplete workshop program: http://ii.umich.edu/content/dam/asp-assets/asp-documents/new-workshop-program.pdf\n\nOrganizers: Kathryn Babayan\, Armenian Studies Program Director\, Yaşar Tolga Cora and David Low\, Manoogian Post-doctoral Fellows

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: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:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.\n\n\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

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:Workshop / Seminar:Family Reading and Science Program Workshop
DESCRIPTION:People have long collected the flowers and herbs that they saw and used in their daily lives. The art and science of collecting and pressing plants continues today. Recording what types of plants are in an area helps us track changes over time. There is also a lot to be learned from plants. This workshop will focus on how plants are shared across the world and used in research to answer questions about global warming\, habitat destruction\, new medicinal uses and the spread of disease. Select and press some plants to take home\, learn about the techniques researchers use in collecting and labeling specimens for preservation and see some of the 1.7 million specimens in the collection at the U-M Herbarium. \nThis is a free event but registration is required.  Visit ummnh.org to register.

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: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.

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: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: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:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.\n\n\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

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:Workshop / Seminar:Mathematical Biology
DESCRIPTION:Scientists have observed theta rhythms (3-12 Hz) in the hippocampus for decades\, but we still do not have a clear understanding of how they are generated. This is largely due to the complex\, multi-scale and nonlinear nature of our brains. We have developed cellular-based network models of the hippocampus based on a whole hippocampus preparation that spontaneously generates theta rhythms. Building on theoretical analyses and performing thousands of simulations\, we find that spike frequency adaptation and post-inhibitory rebound constitute a basis for theta generation in large\, minimally connected CA1 pyramidal network models. The contribution of post-inhibitory rebound is necessary given cellular adaptation mechanisms but the theta frequency is not directly controlled by it. Our models can serve as a platform on which to develop an understanding of in vivo theta\, and of microcircuit dynamics in the hippocampus.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:The Hidden Brain
DESCRIPTION:While we like to believe that our decisions are made in a thoughtful way\, we know that our emotions and unconscious processes have a profound impact on our choices and attitudes. In The Hidden Brain\, Shankar Vedantum\, an NPR social science correspondent\, presents anecdotes and research to suggest that our “hidden brain” is largely responsible for who we love\, who we hate and the clothes we buy. We can have sympathy for one injured animal\, yet lose interest in frequent stories of mass human deprivation and death. Read the Introduction and Chapters 1 and 2 for the first session.\n\nThis study group\, led by instructor Gerry Lapidus\, will meet for two hours on Mondays from February 13 through March 13.

DESCRIPTION:Stochastic smoothing can be used to design online algorithms such for problems such as variance minimization and online PCA. In the case of smoothing spectral function of matrices\, the performance of the algorithm is controlled by its Hessian. I will show how to obtain a concise formula of Hessian of the largest eigenvalue of symmetric matrices and give an upper bound of the regret when we use Gaussian Orthogonal Matrix to smooth the function.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Finding Women in the State: A Socialist Feminist Revolution in the People's Republic of China\, 1949-1964
DESCRIPTION:Discussants : \n-Wang Zheng\, Professor of Women's Studies and History\; Research Scientist\, Institute for Research on Women and Gender\n-Mary E. Gallagher\, Professor\, Department of Political Science\; Director\, Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies\n-Kathleen Canning\, Sonya O. Rose Collegiate Professor\, Arthur F. Thurnau Professor\, Department of History\n\nThis panel of U-M faculty members will discuss the recent book\, Finding Women in the State: A Socialist Feminist Revolution in the People's Republic of China\, 1949-1964 (University of California Press\, 2016) by Wang Zheng.\n\nFinding Women in the State is a provocative hidden history of socialist state feminists maneuvering behind the scenes at the core of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). These women worked to advance gender and class equality in the early People’s Republic and fought to transform sexist norms and practices\, all while facing fierce opposition from a male-dominated CCP leadership from the Party Central to the local government. Wang Zheng extends this investigation to the cultural realm\, showing how feminists within China’s film industry were working to actively create new cinematic heroines\, and how they continued a New Culture anti-patriarchy heritage in socialist film production.\n\nThis book illuminates not only the different visions of revolutionary transformation but also the dense entanglements among those in the top echelon of the party. Wang discusses the causes for failure of China’s socialist revolution and raises fundamental questions about male dominance in social movements that aim to pursue social justice and equality. This is the first book engendering the PRC high politics and has important theoretical and methodological implications for scholars and students working in gender studies as well as China studies.\n\nThis event is part of IRWG's Gender: New Works\, New Questions series.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Geometry & Physics
DESCRIPTION:In the first part of the talk\, we discuss the ubiquitous problem of ill-defined path integrals in quantum field theory. We then discuss the speaker's work making rigorous sense of perturbatively defined path integrals that clarifies this murky subject. This involves having a proper understanding of the Wick expansion\, a formal series expansion attached to integrals.\n\nIn the second part of this talk\, we discuss one of the most central of quantum field theories\, namely quantum Yang-Mills theory. We focus on the special case of two dimensions\, for which a rigorous construction is well-known. We then discuss the fundamental (and overlooked) question of relating perturbative results to exact results in this particular setting. We present a variety of results of the author pertaining to the various gauge-fixing procedures one can invoke in calculating Wilson loop expectations.\n\nNo prior knowledge of quantum field theory is required for this talk.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Integrable Systems and Random Matrix Theory
DESCRIPTION:This is a continuation of last week's talk: The totally asymmetric simple exclusion process (TASEP) is a simple but fundamental model of particle systems. It can be thought of as a simple traffic model. It was shown in 2000 that one point fluctuations of TASEP in 1+1 dimensions for certain initial conditions are given by the same distribution function occurring in random matrix theory. This result was obtained from a remarkable Fredholm determinant formula of the marginal distribution. We will discuss a proof of this Fredholm determinant formula using the so-called coordinate Bethe ansatz method developed by Schutz\, Rakos\, Tracy\, and Widom.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:STS Speaker. Hidden Vulnerability: Power\, Structure\, and Nuclear Disaster in Japan
DESCRIPTION:How does vulnerability become hidden in a complex sociotechnical system? This talk analyzes the key factors that contributed to the hidden vulnerability in Fukushima Daiichi. It illustrates the process through which the institutional production of vulnerability is inextricably intertwined with epistemological bias. The presentation will end with a screening of \"A Journey to Namie\,\" a short documentary about a small town located 20 kilometers from Fukushima Daiichi. Exploring an array of contaminated places in the town\, this documentary captures the voiceless of Namie as ongoing victims of techno-natural disaster.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Combinatorics Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Stable Grothendieck polynomials form a non-homogeneous basis for the ring of symmetric functions. They are the symmetric function analog of polynomial representatives for the K-theory of the Grassmannian. First defined by Fomin and Kirillov using divided difference operators\, they have an alternative formulation in terms of set-valued tableaux due to Buch. Recently\, there have been a plethora of papers exploring the combinatorics of stable Grothendieck polynomials. Building on this work\, we will outline a proof of the Littlewood-Richardson rule for stable Grothendieck polynomials that is entirely combinatorial\, without reference to the geometry of Grassmannians. This proof mirrors (and recovers) the jeu de taquin characterization of the Littlewood-Richardson rule for Schur functions. Speaker(s): Zachary Hamaker (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Group\, Lie and Number Theory
DESCRIPTION:Given a smooth projective algebraic variety over a number field F\, one obtains a compatible system of geometric representations of the absolute Galois group of F on the l-adic cohomology groups of the variety\; at a more basic level\, the different l-adic realizations all at least bear the mark of the variety having good reduction modulo almost all primes. In many cases it is natural to regard these representations as valued in some subgroup of the linear group--for instance\, the representation on even-degree cohomology will take values in an appropriate orthogonal group--and a group-theoretic perspective can then suggest new questions in both geometry and arithmetic--for instance\, does an orthogonal representation on even degree cohomology lift to the corresponding spin (or spin similitude) group? Classical motivation for asking such questions comes from the Kuga-Satake construction\, which carries out precisely this lifting procedure in the case of the degree 2 cohomology of a K3 surface\, and finds the associated \"Kuga-Satake abelian variety\" as output.\n\nMy talk will introduce this circle of ideas\, and then discuss some refined Galois-theoretic evidence for a \"generalized Kuga-Satake theory:\" namely\, when F is a number field\, I'll explain when one can lift all the l-adic realizations of a motive over F through some central quotient of reductive groups (eg\, (G)Spin to SO)\, with independent-of-l control of \"good reduction\" properties.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Near Eastern Studies Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:The Tower of Babel is embedded in our collective cultural memory as an etiological tale of multilingualism. The story itself\, however\, depicts the emergence of languages as a negative\, the impetus for division and cultural dissent\, a purported reflection of the city of Babylon itself. In contrast to this prominent linguistic memory\, the linguistic history of Babylon and ancient Mesopotamia thrives on multilingualism. The story of multilingualism in Babylonia is not about senseless babble\, but about the fundamental place of language and translation in creating and replicating knowledge.

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.

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: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:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.\n\n\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

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:Workshop / Seminar:“Rethinking the Sequence of Development:   A Complexity Approach”
DESCRIPTION:Check out this article in prep. for Yuen Yuen Ang's Tuesday Complex Systems Seminar:  http://blogs.worldbank.org/developmenttalk/review-how-china-escaped-poverty-trap-yuen-yuen-ang\n\nIs it strong institutions of good governance that leads to economic growth\, or growth itself than enables good governance? My book\, How China Escaped the Poverty Trap\, tackles this long-standing\, chicken-and-egg (endogenous) problem in development through a dynamic\, complex systems approach. I argue that this chicken-and-egg debate is false because it incorrectly assumes that development is a linear process\, wherein causality runs in only one direction. In fact\, development is a coevolutionary (mutually causal) process that occurs in three reciprocal steps: harness existing weak institutions to build markets > emerging markets stimulate strong institutions > strong institutions preserve markets. I demonstrate this argument through the primary case of reform-era China\, with extension to three secondary cases: late medieval Europe\, antebellum United States\, and contemporary Nigeria. This alternative sequential theory challenges deeply held assumptions that have long guided development theories and practices.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | Ryodoraku (良導絡) in New China: Sino-Japanese Medical Exchange and the Role of Machines in East Asian Medical Modernity
DESCRIPTION:In 1958\, members of the PRC Ministry of Health witnessed a demonstration of a \"Ryodoraku electrodermometer\,\" an apparatus invented by Nakatani Yoshio中谷義雄 (1923-1978) that purported to prove the existence of acupuncture meridians on the surface of the body. The machine had been brought to China from Japan in the winter of 1957 by members of a Chinese medical delegation\, part of a series of semi-official cultural exchanges between the two countries during a brief moment of political rapprochement. This talk details how the machine managed to travel from Osaka to Beijing in the middle of the Cold War\, and probes the electrical genealogy of the Nakatani machine in the context of medical modernization in China and Japan. The larger goal of this paper is to illuminate the ways that practitioners envisioned the relationship between science and traditional medicines in the twentieth century\, highlighting the role of machines in negotiating this relationship. \n\nRuth Rogaski is a historian of Qing and modern China\, with allied interests in the history of medicine\, urban history\, women’s and gender history\, and social and cultural history in early modern and modern East Asia. She is the author of Hygienic Modernity: Meanings of Health and Disease in Treaty-Port China (University of California Press\, 2004)\, which traces how hygiene became a crucial element in the formulation of Chinese modernity in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Hygienic Modernity was awarded the Fairbank Prize in East Asian history\, the Levenson Prize in Chinese studies\, the Welch Medal in the history of medicine\, and was co-recipient of the Berkshire Prize. She has written widely on topics such as germ warfare\, Chinese orphanages\, and martial arts history. At present she is completing \"The Nature of Manchuria\,\" which examines the intersection between natural history and projects of empire in northeast Asia from the seventeenth century to the present. Grants and fellowships from the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation\, the National Science Foundation\, and the American Philosophical Society have funded her research and writing.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM Theory Seminar | Tensor Network Methods for Electronic Structure
DESCRIPTION:Our conventional picture of wave functions living in an exponentially large Hilbert space is both impractical for solving many particle systems and conceptually lacking: in recent years we have come to understand that physical states of matter live in an infinitesimal corner of Hilbert space\, characterized primarily by low entanglement. Tensor networks are the natural language to express low entanglement wave functions\, giving an exponentially compressed description of ground states. The density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) and other tensor network algorithms have had tremendous success in simulating quantum lattice models. The key challenge in translating these methods to electronic structure is the need to represent continuum space in an efficient way. After an introduction to tensor networks\, I’ll present a new DMRG-based approach suitable for the electronic structure of long molecules. Our sliced-basis DMRG method produces near-exact ground states within its basis\, and has a computation time which is linear in the length of the molecule. We are implementing SBDMRG for chains of hydrogen atoms\, where we have been able to simulate up to 1000 atoms in a minimal basis.

After invoking Menger's characterization of k-connected graphs and Lemma 2.12\, the authors' strategy for the final paragraph depends Gorenstein Liaison Theory (as covered in Migliore's book) and the regularity result of Derksen-Sidman.  If time permits\, I might motivate a statement of the main result Thm 1.4 of the \"Regularity of Line Configurations\" paper\, whose proof also depends on Liaison Theorem and the definition of regularity in terms of Tor.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Geometry/Topology
DESCRIPTION:The index theorem is an important theorem of the 20th century due to the work of Bott\, Atiyah\, Hirzebruch\, Singer\, Patodi\, and others which states the (global) index of an elliptic differential operator can be computed by integrating local topological data given by the principle symbol of the operator. I will explain the statement of the index theorem and explain the classical geometric examples of Hirzebruch-Riemann-Roch\, Chern-Gauss-Bonnet\, and the Hirzebruch signature theorem. I will also give applications to 4-manifold topology and Dirac operators. Speaker(s): John Kilgore (UM)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | 2D/2D Junctions as Low-resistance Contacts for Two-Dimensional Layered Semiconductors Beyond Graphene
DESCRIPTION:The successful isolation of two-dimensional (2D) graphene has stimulated research on a broad range of other 2D materials\, among which layered transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have attracted particular attention. The semiconducting members of the TMD family including MoS2\, MoSe2 and WSe2 have not only demonstrated many of the \"graphene like\" properties desirable for electronic applications such as a relatively high mobility\, mechanical flexibility\, chemical and thermal stability\, and the absence of dangling bonds\, but also have a substantial band gap (1 ~ 2 eV depending on the material and its thickness)\, which is absent in 2D graphene but required for mainstream logic applications. However\, a major bottleneck in electronic applications of TMDs is their tendency to form a substantial Schottky barrier with most electrode metals\, which severely limits their performance. In this talk\, I will discuss our recent work aiming to overcome this fundamental challenge and subsequently explore the intrinsic transport properties of TMDs. Particularly\, we have used heavily doped graphene and 2D semiconductors to fabricate low-resistance ohmic contacts for a variety of TMDs.1\, 2 \n\n1.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:\"Jewishness and Modernist Fiction\"
DESCRIPTION:Long internal to Europe\, Jews are nevertheless for centuries either relegated to the past or seen as a marginal group\, as outsiders\, as alien invaders of Christian Europe. This begins to change in the Enlightenment. But only in the modernist period\, and then only in prose fiction\, do Jews and Jewishness come to occupy a central position—a position difficult to perceive in retrospect owing to the tendency to view the early twentieth century through the retrospective lens of the Nazi years and to the practice of defining Jewishness in unduly restrictive terms. Modernist fiction responds to the collapse of shared values with an attenuation of plot yoked to a structurally autobiographical recreation of ordinary social life\, including the lives of people very different from the author (Proust\, Kafka\, Joyce). This moment proves congenial to the Jewish writer\, less exclusively attached to the nation than are many contemporary authors. Jewish modernist fiction thus marks the transition from the literature of Europe and the West to the category of world literature.\n\nPre-Circulated Paper Link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/4fddpx2esrvg4u4/Chapter\n\nWalter Cohen is professor of English at the University of Michigan.  From 1980 to 2014\, he was professor of Comparative Literature at Cornell University\, where he received a distinguished teaching award and held various college and university administrative posts for two decades.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:SAC Speaker Series Presents
DESCRIPTION:“Parallax Effects: Stereoscopic 3D and the Postwar Uncanny in House of Wax (André de Toth\, 1953) and Dial M for Murder (Alfred Hitchcock\, 1954)”\n\nStereographic 3D cinema is best known for its transformation of the dimensionality of the moving image through the production of positive and negative parallax (“immersion” and “emergence” effects). Scholars tend to critique the use of negative parallax in 3D films of the 1950s\, especially\, as a gimmick that doomed the format to failure by disrupting narrative and and disturbing the spectator’s absorption into the fictional world of the film by foregrounding the screen as surface and threshold. This paper departs from prevailing scholarship on 3D films by situating positive and negative parallax effects along a continuum that aligns the first with the epistemological drive - the desire to see and know - and the second with an affective charge that is irreducible to the provocation of shock and surprise.The association of positive parallax and negative parallax with knowledge and affect\, respectively\, made stereoscopic 3D an ideal format for the cinema’s investigation into the uncanny culture and experience of technological modernity in the postwar era in 3D films such as Dial M for Murder (1953) and House of Wax (1953).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Algebraic Geometry
DESCRIPTION:The Grothendieck ring of varieties is defined as the set of equivalence classes of varieties\, modulo a natural equivalence relation\; despite this simple description\, it's a very complicated ring\, but one worth studying: it has applications to stably birational geometry\, motivic integration and Kapranov's motivic zeta function\, and Kontevich's proof of the birational invariance of Hodge numbers of smooth projective varieties. In this talk\, we'll define the Grothendieck ring of varieties and explore a few of its basic properties (e.g.\, it fails to be a domain or even reduced in characteristic 0). We'll do some example calculations in this ring and define several important homomorphisms from this ring (i.e.\, \"motivic invariants\"). We'll then state and sketch a theorem of Larsen and Luntz relating these ideas to stably birational geometry\, and finally we'll hopefully mention some broader applications to motivic integration and birational geometry. No background beyond basic algebraic geometry will be assumed. Speaker(s): Devlin Mallory (UM)

SUMMARY:Performance:Diversity Next! Series: Dr. Kyra Gaunt
DESCRIPTION:Based on her participant-observation in the Black Lives Matter protests and an Anti-Trump project called BrickxBrick in NYC\, Dr. Gaunt poetically and creatively shares a love song to the world. She will also provide insights from her research of systemic intersectional biases on YouTube and Wikipedia.\n\nEthnomusicologist and vocalist Kyra Gaunt received her Ph.D. from the School of Music at University of Michigan in 1997. She is an award-winning author\, a TED Fellow\, and a digital ethnographer who studies the intersectionality of race\, gender and adolescence on YouTube. She is the award-winning author of The Games Black Girls Play: Learning the Ropes from Double-Dutch to Hip-Hop\, and adjunct associate professor of ethnomusicology\, cultural anthropology and sociology and as a social media expert at Baruch College in NYC. \n\nDr. Gaunt’s current work examines performance of musical blackness and digital ethnography on YouTube. As both a scholar and a performer\, she brings a committed advocacy for empowering emerging adults to become consumers of their own productivity—great citizens and professionals now\, not when you graduate—while demonstrating the value of a diverse and communal intellectual and cross-ethnic engagement that needs to be cultivated in our gadget-distracted age\, especially in higher education.\n#BrickxBrick2016 #BLM \n\nDiversity Next! is an arts-inspired series of conversations convened by the Center for World Performance Studies (CWPS) that seeks to broaden the horizons of diversity deliberations on the U-M campus and beyond. The arts cut across wide-ranging cultural and disciplinary boundaries\, harness the expressive power of creativity in new modes of perception and understanding\, and help individuals and communities critically interrogate and liberate from conditioned assumptions and behavior that run counter to diversity. This invites new perspectives on familiar topics and also helps place front and center areas that may elude diversity discourse altogether.

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: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:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.\n\n\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

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:Workshop / Seminar:Special Cosmology Seminar | What Does Cosmic Far-Infrared Background Tell Us About Cosmic Star-Formation History?
DESCRIPTION:Cosmic far-infrared background (CIB) originates from unresolved\, dusty star-forming galaxies across cosmic time. It probes the cosmic star-formation history and the connection between galaxies and dark matter halos. I will first present new models that help us interpret the CIB anisotropies observed by Planck. These models include a physical model of galaxy evolution and an empirical model based on UV and optical galaxy surveys. I will then discuss how we can optimize future CIB experiments for constraining cosmic star-formation history.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Financial/Actuarial Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:A mean field game (MFG) is a stochastic differential game with a continuum of players\, describing the limit as n tends to infinity of Nash equilibria of certain n-player games\, in which agents interact symmetrically through the empirical measure of their state processes. One way to understand a MFG is through its \"master equation\,\" an infinite-dimensional PDE aptly nicknamed the \"monster equation.\" A solution of this equation can be used\, for instance\, to construct a solution of the original mean field game or prove convergence of n-player equilibria (see Cardaliaguet-Delarue-Lasry-Lions 2015). This talk will not dwell on how to solve the master equation\, a difficult issue addressed in only a few papers thus far. Instead\, we show how to use a sufficiently smooth solution to answer several open questions about the limit theory for MFGs. In particular\, we derive for the first time a central limit theorem and a large deviations principle for the n-player empirical measure (in equilibrium). The proofs use the master equation to quantitatively relate the n-player equilibrium to a McKean-Vlasov system of interacting diffusions for which the limit theory is well understood. \n\nThis talk is based on joint work with Francois Delarue and Kavita Ramanan.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Promoting Academic Excellence in STEM:  The Evolving Roles of Learning Communities
DESCRIPTION:Learning communities are broadly defined as groups drawn together by shared goals and common intellectual interests. At the University of Michigan\, they range widely in degree of formality and structure\, with informal groups such as student organizations at one extreme and highly structured residential communities at another extreme. They could be entirely student focused\, faculty focused or mixed and could last for years or just a semester. \n\nThis event will focus on how this array of learning communities promote academic excellence in STEM disciplines and how we can enhance communication and support among the many types of learning communities on campus.\n\nThe event will include reception\, followed by a campus-wide poster session featuring the wide variety of learning communities on campus and especially those with a STEM focus.\n\nPlease RSVP by February 8th: http://tinyurl.com/zztsto5

DESCRIPTION:In 1987\, Gromov gave several ways to convert any cell complex K into a nonpositvely curved cell complex H(K). He claimed that the metric on these new cell complexes could be made strictly negatively curved\; however\, this was later disproved. In 1995 Charney and Davis gave a modified hyperbolization technique which did produce negatively curved cell complexes. I will talk about both the Gromov and Charney-Davis versions of this result\, and then discuss some applications. Speaker(s): Kevin Schreve (University of Michigan)

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: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:’A GREAT LIBRARY EASILY BEGETS AFFECTION’: THE WILLIAM L. CLEMENTS LIBRARY
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Graffagnino grew up in Vermont and has undergraduate and graduate degrees in American History. In a 39-year professional career\, he’s held curatorial and administrative positions at the University of Vermont\, the State Historical Society of Wisconsin\, the Kentucky Historical Society\, and the Vermont Historical Society. He’s published a good deal and spoken widely on American history\, libraries\, historical cartography\, and bibliomania.\n\nSince its opening in 1923\, the Clements has been one of the world’s finest research libraries of early American history. Clements director Kevin Graffagnino’s illustrated presentation details the life and collecting career of Michigan industrialist William L. Clements and the growth of the library Clements built to house his remarkable collection of early Americana. Book collectors\, history buffs\, and everyone else will learn from this talk why the Clements epitomizes the wisdom of Augustine Birrell’s observation. “A great library easily begets affection\, which may deepen into love.” \n\nThis is the first of a six-lecture series. The subject is The Library – Civilization’s Treasure House of Knowledge.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Great Lakes Seminar Series: Looking at Lake Erie Hypoxia From a Different Point of View
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Hypoxia in the central basin of Lake Erie is a well-known phenomenon that has been studied since the 1980s\, and even earlier. Low dissolved oxygen in the bottom water of a stratified lake can be harmful from an ecological perspective by killing benthic organisms that serve as food for fish\, and also by excluding fish from preferred habitat. Hypoxia is caused by excessive nutrient loading\, resulting in excessive algal growth\, which consumes oxygen when it settles to the bottom. Most models of hypoxia are designed to answer the question of how much nutrient load reduction is needed to reduce hypoxia to meet some goal. In addition to being an important ecological resource\, Lake Erie is a source of drinking water to millions of people. Lake dynamics\, including seiches\, internal waves\, and wind-induced upwelling-downwelling\, can cause changing water quality at public water system intakes over a period of a few hours. In order to maintain the quality of treated water\, treatment processes may need to be adjusted in response to changes in temperature\, dissolved oxygen\, pH\, organic matter\, iron\, or manganese at the inlet. We recently began a project to develop a hypoxia forecast model that can provide a real-time nowcast and five-day forecast of temperature and dissolved oxygen for public water systems on Lake Erie in order to provide plant managers with advance notice of events that are likely to produce changing water quality at their inlets. While past studies have focused on deep water and on time scales of years\, our focus is on nearshore water intakes\, on dynamic events that last hours or days\, and on development of an operational forecast model. In this presentation\, I will discuss past and present models and observations of Lake Erie hypoxia\, and what we know and hope to learn about episodes of hypoxia that affect nearshore drinking water intakes.\n\nBio: Mark Rowe works on developing models to understand and predict changes in the physical\, chemical\, and biological characteristics of the Great Lakes. His recent work has focused on development of linked hydrodynamic and biological models to simulate harmful algal blooms and hypoxia in Lake Erie\, and impacts of invasive quagga mussels on primary production\, nutrient cycles\, and the lower food web of Lake Michigan. He has contributed to forecast models that provide timely and actionable information to public water systems\, anglers\, recreational users of Lake Erie. Dr. Rowe received MS and PhD degrees from Michigan Technological University where he conducted research on measurement and modeling of atmospheric deposition of persistent organic pollutants to Lake Superior.  \n\n**Registration is not required\, however please note important visitor information**\n\nImportant Visitor Information\nAll in-person seminar attendees are required to receive a visitor badge from the front desk at the NOAA Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory facility.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Wieseneck Symposium: \"Multilingualism in Israeli Literature\"
DESCRIPTION:Until fairly recently\, Israeli literature was understood as essentially monolingual\, created exclusively in Hebrew. In the last few years\, scholars have turned their attention to the many languages in which literature was\, and still is written in Israel. The symposium will bring Institute fellows and leading scholars to explore Israel literature written in Yiddish\, Arabic\, German\, Russian\, and English\, as well as the interplay between these languages and Hebrew. The speakers will explore issues such as translation and self-translation\, the politics of language in literature\, and the historical shifts that enabled or restricted inter-linguistic contacts.\n\n10:40 am—12:30 pm: Session 1: Multilingual Encounters and Dialogues\nChair and Respondent: Liora Halperin\, University of Boulder\n\nShachar Pinsker\, University of Michigan: Between “Loshn-Mame-Koydesh” and the Father Tongue?

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.

DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.\n\n\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

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:Performance:CJS Noon Lecture Series | What is Rakugo? Invitation to the 400-year-old Art of Japanese Storytelling
DESCRIPTION:Please note: the performers will speak Japanese with a translator interpreting in English.\n\nRakugo is a traditional storytelling performance. The performer sits on a 2′x2′ cushion on the stage and tells a story that may involve several characters. He may stand up on his knees but never on his feet. His only props are a fan and a tenugui (Japanese towel). In this Noon Lecture\, Yanagiya Sankyo\, one of the leading rakugo players in Japan\, and Yanagiya Kyonosuke\, his apprentice\, will introduce and demonstrate the art of this wonderful Japanese culture. A Q&A session will follow the performance.\n\nPerformers:\nYanagiya Sankyo 柳家さん喬 \nYanagiya Kyonosuke 柳家喬之助 \n\nYanagiya Sankyo was born in 1948. He became an apprentice to Yanagiya Kosan V in 1967 and achieved the highest rank of rakugo performer — known as “shin-uchi (真打)” — in 1981. He excels at telling classic stories about human nature. He won a Japan Foundation Award in 2014\, which honors people who help deepen international friendship over the long term. \n\nYanagiya Kyonosuke was born in 1971 and became an apprentice to Sankyo in 1993. He received a shin’uchi (真打) rank in 2007.\n\nCo-organized by the U-M Japanese Language Program & Center for Japanese Studies.\nCo-sponsored by the Agency for Cultural Affairs and the Japan Business Society of Detroit Foundation.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Arithmetic
DESCRIPTION:The Tate-Shafarevich group\, Sha(E)\, of an elliptic curve E defined over the rational numbers plays an important role in the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture\, but very little is actually known about the structure of this group in general. In this talk we will recall the definition of Sha(E) both as the cokernel of the Kummer map and via its geometric interpretation as a collection of certain isomorphism classes of torsors of E. Using this latter description\, we will introduce one strategy to attempt to understand the behavior of this group (and maybe even try to prove that it is finite). Some prior exposure to elliptic curves and/or group cohomology will be helpful. Speaker(s): Brandon Carter (UM)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Gender Leadership Gap: Barriers and Bias in the Academy and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:Kevin Miller\, Senior Researcher at the American Association of University Women (AAUW)\, gives the February Emergent Research lecture. About the talk:\n\nIn almost every industry and institution\, men occupy leadership positions at a vastly disproportionate rate. For instance\, in the private sector workforce\, white men in particular are nearly twice as likely to be executives as would be expected by chance. Women now receive the majority of university degrees at almost all levels\, including the doctoral level\, and women now make up the majority of junior faculty and instructors at many colleges and universities. But as in other sectors\, leaders at universities are still disproportionately likely to be men. Will time alone close the gender leadership gap in the academy? What can be done to eliminate the barriers and bias facing women? Kevin Miller of the American Association of University Women will review statistical information and research on the gender leadership gap\, with a focus on issues facing women in the academy.\n\nSponsored by the University Library and the ADVANCE program.\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:Lecture / Discussion:LACS Lecture.  Looking for Inca Presences and Local Strategies for Rearranging the Territory: New Excavations in Cerro Azul\, Peru
DESCRIPTION:With the goal of exploring how the Inca Empire transformed the Andean territory\, the Qhapaq Ñan project initiated a research project at the site of Cerro Azul – “El Huarco” a well-known site at the southern end of the central coast of Peru. We expected to uncover evidence of local strategies that intentionally or unintentionally transformed identities\, polities and social organizations in those years of Inca expansion. The present talk discusses the firsthand results of our latest excavation in the 2016 field season. Initially our data shows there was a long occupation at the site. As a working hypothesis we suggest the site was re-organized during the last occupation. This rearrangement of the site\, which includes the construction of a new plaza\, was contemporaneous with Inca presence on the central coast. Although present at Cerro Azul\, the Inca did not exercise territorial power over the site\, rather this arrangement presented an opportunity for local elites to reshuffle the social and physical landscape of Cerro Azul and in its surrounding territory.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Analysis/Probability Learning Seminar
DESCRIPTION:I will present an overview and some proofs from our work with Roman Vershynin.\n\nWe study n by n matrices A with i.i.d. entries. If the entries are also zero mean subgaussian\, then the operator norm ||A|| ~ sqrt(n) with high probability\, but for the distributions with heavier tails the norm can be significantly larger. We were motivated by the question: under what conditions the operator norm of a heavy-tailed matrix can be improved by modifying just a small fraction of its entries (a small sub-matrix of A)? We have shown that this happens exactly when the entries of A have zero mean and bounded variance.\n\nI am going to discuss how enforcing the sqrt(n)-norm for the matrix can be a local or a global problem\, depending on the moments of its entries. As parts of the proof\, I am planning to talk about the relationships among various matrix norms\, discretization of a random variable as a sum of independent Bernoullis\, and Grothendieck-Pietsch factorization for matrices.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Being Killable: Precarization\, Violence and Neoliberal Labor in Contemporary Mexico
DESCRIPTION:Over the past two decades\, the question of violence in Mexico has occupied a considerable amount of attention in different disciplines across the humanities and social sciences. From the Ciudad Juárez femicides and the harrowing experiences of Central American migrants to the rise of criminal organizations and citizen vulnerability\, the experience of violence in neoliberal Mexico has acquired a level of urgency and thus elicited reactive work on the part of scholars in different fields. This paper seeks to systematize the work of scholarship regarding violence in Mexico under the idea of “being killable\,” i.e. the dynamics of socialization and subjectification that determine who is the target of violence across the board. Departing from theories of precarization and labor\, the paper explores different literary and film works\, as well as public interventions and theories\, to contend that violence can be read across two axes: the nature of labor in the neoliberal era and the imagination of subjectivity beyond identity.\n\nIgnacio M. Sánchez Prado is Professor of Spanish and Latin American Studies at Washington University in Saint Louis. His research centers on the relationship between aesthetics\, ideology and cultural institutions in Mexico\, with a particular focus on literature and cinema. He is the author of El canon y sus formas. La reinvención de Harold Bloom y sus lecturas hispanoamericanas (2002)\, Naciones intelectuales.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Thursday Seminar: Unexpected responses of disease to global change
DESCRIPTION:With the threat of changing climate\, species invasions\, shifts in land use\, and other anthropogenic changes\, ecologists are increasingly concerned about the emergence and spread of infectious diseases. The common assumption is that environmental changes will facilitate disease spread and increase the risk to humans and species of agricultural and conservation concern. Yet most ecological processes are nonlinear\, and the response of infectious diseases to environmental change is no exception. In this talk\, I will explore two ways in which nonlinearities in disease transmission lead to unexpected responses of disease to environmental change: (1) pathogen spillover from exotic to native plant species\, and (2) impacts of temperature on vector-borne disease transmission. To understand the importance of nonlinearity in these systems\, I use mathematical models fit to empirical data. In both cases the field-parameterized models show\, counter-intuitively\, that environmental change does not necessarily lead to negative disease-mediated outcomes. In fact\, the fungal pathogen is predicted to benefit the native grass species in competition with the invasive grass\, and warm temperatures are expected to decrease malaria transmission in currently heavily-infected areas. These surprising results underscore the importance of integrating models and data to predict responses of disease to environmental change in nature.\nLight refreshments served at 4 p.m.\n\nWatch YouTube video: https://youtu.be/gkHBUv3EGgA

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EIHS Lecture: \"Visionaries: Second Sight and Social Change in West Africa Since 1800\"
DESCRIPTION:Oxford’s Advanced Learners Dictionary gives the following two primary definitions of the term \"visionary\":\n1. original and showing the ability to think about or plan the future with great\nimagination and intelligence\n-a visionary leader-\n 2. relating to dreams or strange experiences\, especially of a religious kind\n-visionary experiences-\n \nThis talk explores—in the context of Islamic West Africa—these two primary (and inter-related) senses of the meaning of the word \"visionary\": a person who experiences \"visions\" in dreams\, trances\, and waking states and a person who provides inspirational leadership for social change. In short\, it is an examination of the relationship between the \"extra-sensory\" sensorium of religious experiences and social action in the Islamic tradition of the African West. For African Muslim visionaries \"visions\" were often more real than reality itself and thus had the capacity to transform it. But these visions were not limited to seeing\; they were also experiences of sound and smell\, touch and taste. The English language—which favors sight among its five culturally constructed senses—offers no word better to describe such all-encompassing sensory experiences than \"vision.\"\n\nRudolph Ware is an associate professor of history at the University of Michigan. Specializing in premodern West African history\, Professor Ware's research interests include Islam\, popular religious culture\, and race. His book\, The Walking Qur’an Islamic Education\, Embodied Knowledge\, and History in West Africa (2014)\, interrogated the role of Islamic education in shaping Muslim identities\, and examines the ways in which Qur’anic schools have articulated with Sufi orders\, Muslim reformers\, and the state in the recent past. \n\nFree and open to the public. \n\nThis event is part of the Thursday Series of the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Endangered Heritage Conference
DESCRIPTION:War\, climate change\, globalization\, and economic development pose significant threats to the world’s natural and cultural heritage. Societies around the world share many of the same concerns\, even as specific regions\, countries\, and communities face unique challenges.\n\nThe symposium seeks to establish a dialogue about global heritage among invited international experts and the U-M community—exploring threats to heritage and the strategies that have been developed to mitigate these threats\, in both global and local contexts. Speakers representing Africa\, South Asia\, Southeast Asia\, East Asia\, Latin America and the Caribbean\, North Africa and the Middle East will address the challenges their respective regions are currently facing.\n\nFor the full conference schedule and other information\, please see: http://ii.umich.edu/csas/news-events/events/conferences/endangered-heritage---february-2017.html\n\nMade possible by African Studies Center’s African Heritage Initiative\, Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies\, Center for Middle Eastern and North African Studies\, Center for South Asian Studies\, and Center for Southeast Asian Studies. Additional support provided by Department of Anthropology\, Department of Asian Languages and Cultures\, Department of the History of Art\, Department of Near Eastern Studies\, International Institute\, Kelsey Museum of Archaeology\, and Museum of Anthropological Archaeology\, Museum Studies Program.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Foundations of Belief & Decision Making Lecture: Entropy and Indifference
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: The Judy Benjamin problem has often been cited as grounds for rejecting the use of entropy maximizing (or information minimizing) methods in Bayesian epistemology. In this talk\, I will present an alternative explanation of the counterintuitive phenomenon that lies at the heart of the Judy Benjamin problem\, in an effort to show that this critique is misguided. While the Judy Benjamin Problem does not invalidate the principle of maximum entropy\, it does serve to bring into sharp relief the prerequisites for its proper application. Reflection on these prerequisites reveals that\, contrary to the claims of E.T. Jaynes\, who was the first to propose that the principle of maximum entropy be viewed as an a priori principle of rationality\, maximum entropy methods should not be viewed as a supplement to the classical Bayesian theory of probabilistic reasoning based on the Laplacean principle of indifference. Rather\, the principle of maximum entropy turns out to be a corollary of Laplacean principle of indifference\, properly understood. I will conclude the talk by showing how the principle of maximum entropy can be used to resolve certain conceptual puzzles in the theory of probabilistic reasoning\, including the apparent cotenability of symmetry and frequency-based assessments of probability.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Law & Economics: Public Information on Past Bankruptcy and the Stigma of Failure for Entrepreneurs
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nWe analyze how information on past entrepreneurial failure affects an entrepreneurs’ ability to borrow. We exploit a policy shock from 2013 in France\, which eliminated the direct reporting to banks of managers involved in non-fraudulent corporate liquidations by Banque de France. We find that the deflagging makes failed entrepreneurs significantly more likely to restart a business or to borrow from a surviving business\, despite the fact that bankers could find the failure information from other public sources. The effect is stronger for industries where entrepreneurial talent matters more for performance. Restarters create companies that have a higher probability of default.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:WINTER 2017 COMMUNICATION & MEDIA SPEAKER SERIES The Difficulty around Diversifying Hollywood's Labor Force and its Circumventions
DESCRIPTION:With less than substantial improvement to its exclusionary hiring practices\, the television and film industries have nevertheless become emboldened in their apathy about the lack of diversity both in front of and behind the camera. Report after report citing the dearth of employment of creative labor of color has had little effect on how the major Hollywood players choose to conduct their business. Certainly\, it is not in their best interest to admit that racial and ethnic diversity is simply a low priority or an unnecessary distraction. However\, no matter how dismal the employment data\, meaningful diversity just doesn’t appear to be a problem for many of those individuals in positions with enough power to do something about it. Still\, how that lack of care discursively emerges is important to note as they often re-direct conversations about employment into discussions of competence and skill—ironically\, concepts that still perpetuate certain ideological beliefs about racial and gendered identity. \n\nRegardless of how many think pieces\, pie charts\, and data graphs that consistently demonstrate how marginalized bodies are not allowed opportunities to prove they can produce quality work\, these normative models disassociate structural racism from common industry practices. The few minority workers who do enjoy some success will always function as evidence that the best talent does indeed rise to the top.  Yet\, such discursive logic obscures that Hollywood is an industry built around relationships\, networking\, internships\, and apprenticeships—a classed set of practices from which people of color are systemically excluded. This talk will address how discourses of Hollywood labor erase classed and racial identity through three key strategies creatives of color employ as a consequence of those practices.\n\nKristen Warner is an Associate Professor in the Department of Journalism and Creative Media at The University of Alabama. She is the author The Cultural Politics of Colorblind TV Casting (Routledge\, 2015). Kristen's research interests are centered at the juxtaposition of televisual racial representation and its place within the media industries\, particularly within the practice of casting. Warner’s work can be found in Television and New media\, Camera Obscura and a host of anthologies and online websites.
