SUMMARY:Other:Recruiting New Members for Fall 2017!
DESCRIPTION:The LSA Honor Council is an undergraduate student organization dedicated to developing initiatives that aid in the promotion of respect\, integrity\, and personal responsibility. We also attend meetings hosted by the Office of Student Academic Affairs for students accused of academic misconduct.   In our recruitment efforts\, we prioritize the importance of forming a council composed of individuals with diverse backgrounds and viewpoints. This spectrum of varied perspectives enables our council to more effectively address issues of integrity on our campus. This upcoming year\, we are recruiting a group of motivated and dedicated LSA students who are interested in working closely with the deans\, faculty\, and fellow students to promote a campus culture that values integrity. This past year\, we have accomplished this goal by hosting faculty department presentations\, tabling events\, and discussions of current ethical issues. Most recently\, we hosted Dr. Victor Strecher from the School of Public Health to present a talk on “Designing a Happy Life.” Given the breadth of our activities\, it is crucial that we incorporate students with diverse skill sets to maximize our council’s potential. We hope that you will join us next fall! Link to application: http://lsastudenthc.weebly.com/become-a-member.html

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Forever Unfinished: Making and Remaking a Public University
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan was founded in 1817 as a public institution\, a concept for which there were few models. What makes a university public? What should it look like? Whom should it serve? Who should have access to its resources\, and where should those resources come from?\n\nThis exhibit explores how students\, faculty\, staff\, politicians\, and citizens have attempted to answer these questions. These stories invite us to imagine U-M's future as a public university based on what we know about its past.\n\nExhibit team: Jonathan Farr\, Nora Krinitsky\, Michelle McClellan\, Gregory Parker\, Emily Price\, Kate Silbert\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester exhibit 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:Gifts of Art presents Photography into Fiber: ArtPrize Winner
DESCRIPTION:Steve and Ann Loveless both grew up in northwestern lower Michigan and love the nature and beauty of the outdoors. Steve is a fine art photographer\, and Ann is a textile artist. After exhibiting some of Ann’s textile designs inspired by Steve’s photography\, they had the idea to create works that morph a photograph into a textile. One aspect of the process is that it can trick the viewer into questioning what they are seeing and invite them to engage more with the work. Northwood Awakening\, a 25 by 5 foot piece that was the ArtPrize 2015 Public Vote Grand Prize winner\, will be on display.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Cut Ups: Paper Collage
DESCRIPTION:Laura Cavanagh is a Michigan native who graduated summa cum laude from the University of Michigan in 2011 with a BFA in Art & Design and a minor in Art History. Cavanagh’s work consists primarily of cut paper and mixed media. Working with these materials allows her to approach her work in much the same way a sculptor does: adding to and cutting away from. Cavanagh finds the artistic process to be deeply meditative. Cavanagh lives and has her studio in a historic home in downtown Rochester\, Michigan.

DESCRIPTION:Cat Crotchett’s current work combines elements of eastern and western cultural patterns in fragments that together form something different than their individual parts. These images represent an intersection of information as well as ideas of cultural appropriation\, assimilation\, fragmentation and alteration. Crotchett uses wax because it is relevant to both eastern and early western artistic cultures. A professional artist for over 30 years\, Crotchett has exhibited nationally and internationally. She is a professor at Western Michigan University and lives in Kalamazoo\, Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents When Pigs Fly: Oil Painting
DESCRIPTION:Professional artist and instructor Gregory Potter believes that anyone can develop artistic skill if they put the work into it. Potter’s teaching helps with that\, but he also shows his paintings in art fairs\, galleries and even Army barrack walls\, anywhere people enjoy art and laughing out loud. A flightless bird\, his flamingo isn’t deep or subversive\, but it does have a top hat and is riding on the back of a zebra that is standing in a nest powered by a propeller. Nothing unusual for a man who served four tours in the Middle East. Working in his home gallery in Franklin\, Indiana\, he is amused as viewers sometimes see his animals as “above all the B.S.” or “leaving without knowing where [they’re] going.”

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Possession\, pop-up exhibition by Jaye Schlesinger
DESCRIPTION:Possession evolved in response to Ann Arbor artist Jaye Schlesinger’s interest in mindfulness and minimalism and the role they play in personal well being.  After disposing (selling\, recycling\, giving away) of everything that no longer served to enrich her life\, Schlesinger decided to merge this exercise with her art practice and depicted all of her remaining possessions in small oil paintings\, 380 in total. The paintings depict objects of functionality and ones of beauty\, eliciting contemplation and conversation about the ‘stuff’ we choose to live with.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Reverberations of Rebellion: 1967 in Detroit and Ann Arbor
DESCRIPTION:The 1967 Detroit rebellion was a pivotal event in the history of the Motor City. While Ann Arbor may seem far removed from Detroit\, the themes of 1967—housing segregation\, media bias\, student activism\, and police violence—resonated here as well. \n\nThis exhibit\, on display in the Hatcher Graduate Library North lobby through September 15\, 2017\, highlights the extensive archival resources of the  Bentley Historical Library and the U-M Library’s Labadie Collection. These materials place the rebellion in the context of 1960s activism against racism and inequality in Detroit and Ann Arbor\, and illustrate the significance and range of press coverage.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Waiting for the Extraordinary installation by Mark Dion
DESCRIPTION:About the installation: As part of the Institute for the Humanities 2017-18  Year of Archives and Futures\, and in celebration of the U-M Bicentennial\, the Institute for the Humanities presents a new iteration of Mark Dion’s Waiting for the Extraordinary\, which was commissioned and first exhibited here in 2011. Inspired by the academic classifications invented by 19th-century Michigan Chief Justice Augustus B. Woodward\, this new\, architecturally scaled installation serves as an archive of the original\, and presents a single room with thirteen plastic sculptures\, each representing one of Woodward’s professorships. As viewers peer into the space and encounter these illuminated objects—reproduced using 3D imaging technology from original objects Dion found in departments and collections across the University of Michigan—they confront questions about the distinction between the rational and subjective in our construction of knowledge\, as well as role of the museum and institutions that continue to determine it.\n\nAbout the artist: Mark Dion’s work examines the ways in which dominant ideologies and public institutions shape our understanding of history\, knowledge\, and the natural world. “The job of the artist\,” he says\, “is to go against the grain of dominant culture\, to challenge perception and convention.” Appropriating archaeological\, field ecology\, and other scientific methods of collecting\, ordering\, and exhibiting objects\, Dion creates works that question the distinctions between ‘objective’ (‘rational’) scientific methods and ‘subjective’ (‘irrational’) influences. Mark Dion questions the objectivity and authoritative role of the scientific voice in contemporary society\, tracking how pseudo-science\, social agendas\, and ideology creep into public discourse and knowledge production.\n\nImage: Mark DION\nWaiting for the\nExtraordinary\n2013\nmixed media\n96 x 61 x 122\ninches\; 243.8 x\n154.9 x 309.9 cm\nCourtesy the artist\nand Tanya Bonakdar\nGallery\, New York

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Reforming the Word: Martin Luther in Context
DESCRIPTION:Highlighting manuscripts and early printed books from the Special Collections Library\, the exhibit commemorates the 500th anniversary of a pivotal transformation in world history. In 1517\, Martin Luther\, a professor of theology and a monk\, published his scathing critique of indulgences\, a church practice that allowed Christians to buy off time from suffering for one’s sins in the afterlife.\n\nIssued in the provincial town of Wittenberg\, Luther's call for academic debate and reform unleashed a series of events that led to the break-up of Latin Christianity. The Reformations that followed forever altered the lives of those in early modern Europe and beyond.\n\nThe late medieval German lands teemed with innovation. Novel forms of piety emerged\, the demand for practical learning grew\, more universities competed for students\, and wealth from both trade and mining transformed social relations. The dissemination of texts and ideas on an industrial scale via the printing press reshaped communication\, knowledge\, and belief. In this context\, reform—the renewal of a lost standard of the past in the present—became a battle-cry for religious\, economic\, and political change.\n\nAudubon Room hours: Monday-Friday 8:30am-6:00pm\, Saturday 10:00am-6:00pm\, Sunday 1:00-6:00pm

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:BME Seminar: Sharon Gerecht\, Ph.D.
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, Sept. 28\, 2017\n9:00 – 10:00 am\n133 Chrysler\n \nSharon Gerecht\, PhD\nProfessor and Kent Gordon Croft Investment Management Faculty Scholar ChemBE & DMES  Director\, the Institute for NanoBioTechnology\nJohns Hopkins University\n \nhttp://gerechtlab.johnshopkins.edu\n \n    “Exploiting Physicochemical Cues to Guide Vasculature Differentiation and Assembly”\n \nAbstract:  \n \nVascular differentiation and formation (morphogenesis) takes place in an intricate milieu. This unique microenvironment is situated throughout the body in diverse types of healthy tissues\, yet it seems to activates/inhibits similar mechanisms of the microvasculature. Two parameters of this microenvironment seem critical for blood vessel growth and stabilization: (i) the extracellular matrix (ECM)\, which provides critical support for vascular cell adhesion\, proliferation\, migration\, and morphogenesis\, and (ii) low oxygen concentrations (hypoxia)\, which is a critical factor promoting vascularization during embryonic development and tumor growth. In this talk I will present our recent efforts to understand how these physicochemical cues and downstream signaling pathways impact vascular fate and assembly from progenitors and pluripotent stem cells.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and professor Jim Cogswell has been invited by the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology and the University of Michigan Museum of Art to create a set of public window installations in response to the objects in their collections.  Titled Cosmogonic Tattoos\, his project will use adhesive vinyl images applied in saturated colors to windows in the two buildings\, highlighting the role of these museums in the life of our campus community. Through close examination of objects separated from us by deep chronological and cultural divides\, imaginatively transformed within our campus context\, this project celebrates the power of architecture\, ornament\, and material objects to shape knowledge\, historical memory\, and cultural identity. \n\nLook for displays in the UMMA from April 22-Dec. 3\, the exterior of the Kelsey Museum from June 2-Dec. 17\, and in the interior special exhibition space of the Kelsey Museum from June 2-Sept. 10.\n\nFor information on-the-go about this event and all other Bicentennial happenings\, download our free mobile app: http://guidebook.com/g/umich200.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University of Michigan’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and distinguished U​–M art professor Jim Cogswell has been invited to create a series of public window installations in response to the holdings of the University of Michigan Museum of Art and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology. For this visionary project\, the artist will adhere a procession of vivid images to the glass walls of the museums in a rhythmically evocative narrative\, based on reassembled fragments from a diverse range of artworks in both museums’ permanent collections. The juxtaposed images will address our shared histories and experiences while connecting the viewer to the origins and meaning of objects and their power to shape knowledge\, memory\, and identity. By leveraging the buildings’ unique architecture\, the artist expands our understanding of a museum as a cultural repository and highlights the significant role of these institutions in the life of the campus community.\nCosmogonic Tattoos is on view at UMMA April 22 through December 3\, 2017 and at the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology from June 2 through December 17\, 2017.\nLead support for Cosmogonic Tattoos is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Moving Image: Portraiture
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Portraiture presents a contemporary spin on traditional notions of portraiture. In the video Towards An Architect\, Hannu Karjalainen portrays a fictional architect who is experiencing the response of people living in the structures he designed. Daniel Rozin’s Mirror No. 10 is driven by software\, written by the artist\, that generates a real-time reflection of the environment the screen is displayed in—specifically a live sketch of the viewer approaching the frame. Mesocosm (Northumberland\, UK) is an algorithmic work by Marina Zurkow that depicts the passage of time on the moors of Northeast England.\n\nMoving Image: Portraiture is the third of three exhibitions drawn from the collection of the Borusan Contemporary\, Istanbul\, which since 2011 has been focused on media arts. The works in this series address both formal concerns and conceptual topics\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\n\nLead support for Moving Image: Portraiture is provided by the 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:Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa
DESCRIPTION:Before colonization\, complex hierarchical societies flourished in Central and West Africa. At their summits were a select few—kings and chiefs whose authority was derived from their direct connection to powerful ancestors and predecessors. These rulers were wrapped in expensive textiles or costly furs\, and covered in beads and precious metals\, materials that not only signaled their extraordinary status\, but were also intended to safely contain the great power they wielded. The famous minkisi (meaning “power figure”) sculptures of Central Africa were similarly activated through the addition of charged materials. Textiles\, animal skin\, metal\, and beads allowed the lifeless wooden carvings to be activated by local spiritual leaders in order to communicate with the realm of the ancestors and spirits. This exhibition explores the parallels between the adornment of the king’s physical body and minkisi. Drawing on works from UMMA’s collection and several loans\, the exhibition demonstrates how authority was expressed and power contained across a range of historical cultures in Nigeria\, Ghana\, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Cameroon.\n\nLead support for Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Thursday Lecture Series | The Center for Japanese Studies - A 70 Year Legacy of Engaged Learning
DESCRIPTION:Robert Hall\, the first director of the Center for Japanese Studies\, once remarked: \"For both faculty and student\, the study of an area on the spot will do more than anything to demonstrate the essential unity\, in actual life\, of the knowledge encompassed by the different disciplines.\" In the seventy years since Hall founded CJS\, this twin commitment to engagement and interdisciplinarity has never ceased to guide the Center's work. This panel event will convene several Center faculty to discuss CJS's long history of engaged scholarship\, beginning with the historic Okayama Field Station in 1950 and continuing to the present day in the form of CJS's various study abroad\, service-learning\, and internship programs.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach Out Series- Hurricanes: What's Next?
DESCRIPTION:The 2017 Atlantic Hurricane season has produced incredibly destructive storms\, and has raised many questions. What drives a hurricane? How accurate are hurricane models? How do authorities prepare for hurricanes and\, when destructive events like Hurricanes Harvey and Irma happen\, how do we respond? Is this hurricane season a fluke\, or should we start planning for more/similar storms? In this Teach-Out\, we will explore the science of hurricanes\, hurricane forecasting and monitoring\, and with what confidence can we attribute these storms to a warming ocean.\n\nTeach-Outs are short learning experiences\, each focused on a specific current issue. Attendees will come together over a few days not only to learn about a subject or event but also to gain skills. Teach-Outs are open to the world and are designed to bring together individuals with wide-ranging perspectives in respectful and deep conversation. These events are an opportunity for diverse learners and a multitude of experts to come together to ask questions of one another and explore new solutions to the pressing concerns of our global community. Come\, join the conversation!

Division St.\, Ann Arbor)\, The Unfinished Conversation: Encoding/Decoding is a group exhibition including image and video work by Terry Adkins\, John Akomfrah\, Shelagh Keeley\, and Zineb Sedira. There will be an exhibition reception on Friday\, September 8 from 6-8 pm. The exhibition and reception are free and open to the public.\n\nCo-curated by Gaëtane Verna\, Director of The Power Plant\, and Mark Sealy\, The Unfinished Conversation is grounded in the work of cultural theorist Stuart Hall (1932-2014)\, who devoted his life to studying the interweaving threads of culture\, power\, politics\, and history. \n\nTaking Hall’s essay Encoding and Decoding in the Television Discourse as a point of departure\, viewers will be invited to think about how meaning is constructed\; how it is systematically distorted by audience reception\; and how it can be detached and drained of its original intent to produce specific or slanted narratives. Hall’s interdisciplinary approach drew on literary theory\, linguistics\, and cultural anthropology in order to analyse and articulate the relationship between history\, culture\, popular media\, cold war politics\, gender\, and ethnicity.\n\nBy presenting the work of artists who bring into play time\, memory\, and archives so as to construct new readings of the past\, the exhibition will lay emphasis on the idea that the “visual” is an assimilatory process continuously at work in the construction of cultural\, political\, personal\, and national identities.\n\nCo-curators Gaëtane Verna and Mark Sealy state that it is their curatorial intention to build a multiple moving/still/audio archive\, an image map\, a visual vehicle that will ferry the audience across the choppy waters of memory\, images\, and politics to an undeterminable\, obscure\, and un-chartable destination\, where people often meet with a fatal end. The exhibition aims to take viewers on a journey in time\, to bring them to encounter images\, which act as both objects of art and ideas in flux\, circulating in and out of the archive through the corridors of cultural re-construction.\n\nThis image map will be drawn by the work of Terry Adkins\, John Akomfrah\, Shelagh Keeley and Zineb Sedira\, four artists whose practice is devoted primarily to commenting on recent socio-political events and situations and relating them to the not so distant past in order to help us understand the world we live in.\n\nBy stimulating our personal and collective memory\, these works will show us how history agitates and causes anxiety in our personal lives and in the political realm as they will reveal the fact that national identity is not an essence or a state of being\, but a “becoming\,” a process whereby subjectivities are formed in the interstices between such binary oppositions as us/them\, black/white\, or native/foreigner\, and that it is in those in-between spaces that marginalized people are the agents and subjects of many possible futures\, imagined or real.\n\nThe thread that connects all these art works is the artist’s involvement with the significant social issues confronting humanity today and their profound desire to push formal boundaries in order to tackle them.\n\nThe Unfinished Conversation: Encoding/Decoding is organized and circulated by The Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery\, Toronto in partnership with Autograph ABP\, London. The exhibition is co-curated by Gaëtane Verna\, Director\, The Power Plant and Mark Sealy\, Director\, Autograph ABP.\n\nPhoto by Toni Hafkenscheid.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Vital Signs for a New America
DESCRIPTION:On view from September 8-October 14\, 2017 in the Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.\, Ann Arbor)\, Vital Signs for a New America is a group exhibition including work by Dylan Miner\, Sheryl Oring\, and the performance collective The Hinterlands. There will be an exhibition reception on Friday\, September 8 from 6-8 pm. The exhibition and reception are free and open to the public.\n\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra\, Vital Signs for a New America uses a range of meaningful and compelling of community-engaged approaches to invite the public to join Miner\, Oring\, and The Hinterlands in speaking out and sharing stories\; listening and re-learning\; and remembering the past to imagine new possibilities for the future.\n\nActive public engagement is at the heart of Vital Signs for a New America. Each work on view in this group exhibition offers opportunities to interact directly with the artists and their art. As part of the exhibition programming\, the gallery will become a common space for storytelling and tea drinking with Dylan Miner\; a bustling executive assistant’s office with Sheryl Oring\; and a tactile\, expansive personal archive with the performance collective The Hinterlands. Vital Signs invites the public to speak out\, listen\, and imagine new models for inclusive futures.\n\nDylan Miner: Elders Say We Don’t Visit Anymore\nSaturdays\, September 9-October 14\, 1-3 pm\n\nDylan Miner\, Director of American Indian and Indigenous Studies at Michigan State University\, is an artist\, activist\, and scholar. Miner identifies as a Wiisaakodewinini (Métis)\, the Ojibwe designation for a Native male of mixed ancestry. While conducting an oral history project with retired Anishinaabe autoworkers\, elders shared the idea that “we don’t visit as much as we used to” due to the limitations of urbanizations\, wage labor\, and settler colonialism to name a few. In response\, Miner was inspired to explore the methodology of visiting with an art gallery or museum context. Elders Say We Don’t Visit Anymore is a creative action where the public is invited to share tea and conversation with the artist\, creating new friendships and maintaining social relationships within a specific time and place.\n\nSheryl Oring: I Wish to Say \nFriday\, September 8\, 5-6.30 pm and 7-8 pm (two engagements)\nFridays\, September 15-October 13\, 5-7 pm\n\nNationally renowned artist Sheryl Oring’s belief in the value of free expression guaranteed by the American constitution propelled her to initiate I Wish to Say (2004-ongoing)\, a public platform that invites people to voice their concerns about the state-of-affairs in the country to the President of America. For this project\, Oring sets up a portable public office — complete with a manual typewriter — and invites viewers to dictate postcards to the President of the United States\, prompting with a simple phrase: “Do you have a message for the president?” Over the last decade\, Oring has toured this project across the country and more than 3\,000 postcards have been mailed to the White House. Taking place for the first time in Michigan\, Oring will be working with students and volunteers at the Stamps Gallery and in the city of Ann Arbor to spark dialogues not just among artists and academics but also among the diverse public of Ann Arbor on their notes to the President.\n\nThe Hinterlands: The Radicalization Process Papers \nTuesday\, October 3\, 6-7.30pm: History is a Living Weapon (performance)\n\nThe Hinterlands delve into the past to remember and re-learn the cultural memories and collective histories of Detroit and Ann Arbor. A collection of boxes is discovered in the basement of a house on the border of Detroit and Hamtramck. In them\, a rich personal archive of publication clippings\, which appear to chronicle radical U.S. histories of the 60s and 70s. Using the archive as a performative platform\, the artists invite audiences to engage with the materials contained in the boxes that blur the boundaries between fact and fiction\, real and imagined. The ephemera and memorabilia in the The Radicalization Process Papers takes audiences on a journey that navigates layers of historical accounts\, art\, politics\, and cultural artifacts and asks audiences to examine the assumptions of freedom and democracy in popular American culture. Created and compiled by The Hinterlands in collaboration with historian and poet Casey Rocheteau and designer Ben Gaydos.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:The Knowledge Illusion Discussion Study
DESCRIPTION:We’ve mastered the world\, but two cognitive psychologists (S. Sloman and P. Fernbach) in this new book say we are increasingly ignorant as individuals and depend heavily \non collective information plus each other to solve problems. They argue that human inventions come less from individual ingenuity and much more from language-related abilities to learn from and work with others. \n\nThe book combines scientific evidence with dozens of intriguing examples of shared human creations\, such as money\, but has no complete solution for how to avoid manipulation and cope with today’s information explosion. \n\nThis study group for those 50 and above will be led by instructor Paul Wenger who retired in 1992 after 30 years as a communications professor.\n\nThis group will meet for two hours on Thursdays from September 28 through October 26.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Beyond Carbon Neutral Seminar Series \"Carbon Dioxide Removal and the Beyond Carbon Neutral Initiative\"
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Mark Barteau\, Director\, University of Michigan Energy Institute\, will give a talk on “Carbon Dioxide Removal and the Beyond Carbon Neutral Initiative”\n\nGlobal temperatures are rising as a result of man-made greenhouse gas emissions. The emissions reduction targets of the Paris climate agreement will slow\, but not stop this process. To slow climate change\, we must actively remove CO2 from the atmosphere. A variety of carbon dioxide removal (CDR) processes have been advanced\, but almost all suffer from questions of scalability\, cost\, and societal acceptance.  This talk will examine the current state of the field\, and discuss the work of University of Michigan faculty and students as part of the Energy Institute’s Beyond Carbon Neutral initiative. The goal of this initiative is to increase the rate of negative emissions of greenhouse gases\, to combat climate change.  ​

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition Presentation and Opening: The Future Needs..Something Blue
DESCRIPTION:Could anyone have foreseen the technical\, social\, and conceptual issues that have confronted the University of Michigan since its founding 200 years ago\, or the challenges it has faced in the last 100\, 50\, or even five years? In the marshaling of knowledge and expertise\, the greatest achievement of the University lies not in its continuity\, but in its ability to address the unforeseen. Drawing on the student work from the Taubman College Architecture Program\, “The Future Needs…Something Blue” addresses an idea of the future that lies not in the answers to questions we now know\, but in possibilities we are only now beginning to imagine. Sited at the Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning’s Liberty Research Annex\, the display is simultaneously shop window\, gallery\, and salon. Organized around a series of emergent themes it is an interactional space in which to view (in perspective\, parallax\, parallel\, and contrast) the multiple points of view that constitute the future.\n“The Future Needs…Something Blue” is curated by Associate Professor of Practice Julia McMorrough and Associate Professor John McMorrough of studioAPT (Architecture Practice Theory).\nOn Tuesday\, September 19 at 6:00pm there will be an opening reception at the Liberty Research Annex (305 W. Liberty St.\, Ann Arbor). Exhibition on view September 20 - October 29.

DESCRIPTION:Ann Arbor artist Jaye Schlesinger talks about her exhibition Possession\, which evolved in response to her interest in mindfulness and minimalism and the role they play in personal well being.  After disposing (selling\, recycling\, giving away) of everything that no longer served to enrich her life\, Schlesinger decided to merge this exercise with her art practice and depicted all of her remaining possessions in small oil paintings\, 380 in total. The paintings depict objects of functionality and ones of beauty\, eliciting contemplation and conversation about the ‘stuff’ we choose to live with.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AE585 Graduate Seminar Series - Insights From Direct Numerical Simulation Of Multi-Stage Ignition And Flame Propagation
DESCRIPTION:Insights From Direct Numerical Simulation Of Multi-Stage Ignition And Flame Propagation In Intense Shear-Driven Turbulence\n\nDirect numerical simulation (DNS) of turbulent combustion on petascale supercomputers has transformed our ability to interrogate fine-grained gas-phase ‘turbulence-chemistry’ interactions in simple laboratory configurations. In particular\, three-dimensional DNS\, performed at moderate Reynolds numbers\, at ambient and elevated pressure and with complex chemistry has provided an unprecedented level of detail used to isolate and understand mechanistic causality between turbulence\, mixing and reaction in combustion regimes dominated by finite-rate chemical kinetics. The DNS data has provided new physical insights and statistical results to assist in the development and validation of engineering CFD models.   In this presentation\, the role of shear-driven turbulence on spontaneous ignition\, flame stabilization and propagation problems relevant to diesel engines\, and stationary and aero-gas turbine engines will be presented.  In particular\, the role of low-temperature cool flames on the dynamics of n-dodecane ignition at diesel conditions\, and turbulent mixing effects in high-Karlovitz piloted premixed methane/air jet flames will be elucidated. Finally\, I will describe recent advances in alternative asynchronous task-based programming models applied to CFD simulations to facilitate more comprehensive data-intensive workflows on exascale machines in the 2020 horizon.\n\nAbout the speaker...\nJacqueline H. Chen is a Distinguished Member of Technical Staff at the Combustion Research Facility at Sandia National Laboratories. She has contributed broadly to research in petascale direct numerical simulations (DNS) of turbulent combustion focusing on fundamental turbulence-chemistry interactions.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar - Michigan's amazing \"gene thieves\": Evolution and ecology of unisexual (all female) Ambystoma salamanders
DESCRIPTION:Unisexual (all female) Ambystoma salamanders reproduce using a “leaky” form of gynogenesis requiring the uptake of a spermatophore from a sympatric sexual male.  This may trigger asexual egg development\, or the sperm genome may be incorporated into the zygote\, typically resulting in ploidy-elevated offspring. My research focuses on identifying the evolutionary benefits of this unique reproductive mode\, which has allowed for the persistence of this lineage for six million years. I will discuss recent breeding trials we have conducted pairing unisexual females with blue-spotted salamander males either from their own pond or from a more distant pond. Females paired with local males produced more clutches overall\, and a larger proportion of the eggs were viable. Genotyping revealed that a significantly higher proportion of these eggs included the paternal genome. The ability to flexibly adjust between sexual and asexual reproduction in a context-dependent manner might help explain the evolutionary success of this lineage.\n\nView YouTube video of seminar: https://youtu.be/mXZ0cxZFsgk

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EIHS Lecture: The Coromantee War: Charting the Course of an Atlantic Slave Revolt
DESCRIPTION:The transatlantic slave trade spread people from a vast region of Atlantic Africa throughout the Americas. The trade also redistributed political and military power. Upon captivity\, people who had been administrative or military leaders suddenly found themselves uprooted from sustaining landscapes\, scattered by currents and trade winds\, and replanted in strange territories where they struggled to rebuild their social connections and recover their influence. Inevitably\, some determined that only war could rectify their dishonor. More than highlighting resistance or the agency of the dispossessed\, the Jamaican Coromantee War of 1760-1761 shows how the turmoil of enslavement\, which ruptured systems of social authority and cultural continuity\, figured the development of enslaved militancy as it originated\, traveled\, took root\, and germinated in far-flung contexts.\n\nVincent Brown is Charles Warren Professor of American History\, professor of African and African-American studies\, and director of the History Design Studio at Harvard University. His research\, writing\, teaching\, and other creative endeavors are focused on the political dimensions of cultural practice in the African Diaspora\, with a particular emphasis on the early modern Atlantic world. A native of Southern California\, he was educated at the University of California\, San Diego\, and received his PhD in History from Duke University\, where he also trained in the theory and craft of film and video making. He has been the recipient of the Mellon New Directions fellowship\, John Simon Guggenheim fellowship\, and the National Humanities Center fellowship. \n \nBrown is the author of numerous articles and reviews in scholarly journals\, he is Principal Investigator and Curator for the animated thematic map Slave Revolt in Jamaica\, 1760-1761: A Cartographic Narrative (2013)\, and he was Producer and Director of Research for the television documentary Herskovits at the Heart of Blackness (2009). His first book\, The Reaper’s Garden: Death and Power in the World of Atlantic Slavery (2008)\, was co-winner of the 2009 Merle Curti Award and received the 2009 James A. Rawley Prize and the 2008-09 Louis Gottschalk Prize.  \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.

In separate pursuits\, we have also developed peptide-based multifunctional catalysts that enable enzyme-like cooperative catalysis.  The small peptide scaffold brings multiple non-natural catalysts into close proximity\, enabling faster catalyst turnover\, novel selectivity based on substrate binding and proximity\, and the development of novel two-catalyst transformations. The development and use of these catalysts to achieve novel reaction rates and selectivity and for new reaction discovery will also be presented.                        \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nDavid Michaelis (Brigham Young University)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:The Computer Says No
DESCRIPTION:LIVESTREAM: http://myumi.ch/6kNPk\n\nAuditing Algorithms: Adding Accountability to Automated Authority is a group of events designed to produce a white paper that will help to define and develop the emerging research community for “algorithm auditing.” Algorithmic Auditing is a research design that has shown promise in diagnosing the unwanted consequences of algorithmic systems.\n\nAutomated software-based systems in finance\, media\, information\, transportation\, learning\, or any application of computing can easily create outcomes that are unforeseeable by their designers\, so algorithm auditing has the potential to improve the design of these systems by making their consequences visible. Auditing in this sense takes its name from the social scientific “audit study” where one feature is manipulated in a field experiment\, although it is also reminiscent of a financial audit.\n\nThese events and the resulting white paper proposes to coalesce this new area of inquiry and to produce a report characterizing the state of the art and potential future directions. Participants and white paper co-authors will have opportunities to clarify the potential dangers of algorithmic systems\, to specify these dangers as new research problems\, to articulate challenges that they face as researchers interested in this area\, to present existing methods for auditing or needs for new methods\, and to propose research agendas that can provide new insights that advance science and benefit society.\n\nThis initiative is sponsored by the National Science Foundation and co-organized by the University of Michigan\, the University of Illinois\, and Harvard University. Events are hosted at the University of Michigan.\n\nSpeakers:\nSolon Barocas\, Cornell University\nJ. Nathan Matias\, Princeton University\nH.V.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Working With Community Health Workers to Increase Use of ORS and Zinc to Treat Child Diarrhea In Uganda: A Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial
DESCRIPTION:Authors: Zachary Wagner\, John Bosco Asiimwe\, William H. Dow\, David I. Levine\n\nDiarrhea remains the second leading cause of death among children\, although nearly all deaths could be prevented with the use of oral rehydration salts (ORS). There is little evidence demonstrating why ORS use remains low and what can be done increase use. Although community health workers (CHWs) are often tasked with increasing ORS use\, little is known about how CHWs should distribute these products to maximize coverage. We hypothesized that price and lack of convenience are important barriers to ORS use\, and therefore examined two key features of ORS distribution: 1) charging vs. free distribution and 2) home delivery vs. client retrieval. We used a village-clustered randomized design across 118 villages in Uganda to experimentally vary the price and convenience of accessing ORS from CHWs. Villages were randomized to one of four groups: 1) a novel preemptive home delivery intervention (Free+Delivery) made ORS free and conveniently available inside the home when a child came down with diarrhea\; 2) a preemptive home sales intervention (Home Sales) made accessing ORS conveniently available at the home\, but not free\; 3) a free upon retrieval intervention (Vouchers) made ORS free but not convenient\; 4) a control group had CHWs carry out their normal activities. This design allowed us to evaluate the impact of competing CHW distribution strategies as well as to examine the causal effect of price (Free+Delivery vs. Home Sales) and convenience (Free+Delivery vs. Vouchers) on ORS use. The first result is that Free+Delivery increased the share of cases treated with ORS by 21 percentage points (36%) relative to the control group. Second\, Free+Delivery increased ORS use by 12 percentage points (18%) relative to Home Sales\, suggesting that price is an important barrier to use. Third\, we found no evidence that convenience was an important barrier. Free+Delivery did not do a worse job of targeting higher risk cases or lead to increased wastage relative to the other groups. Moreover\, Free+Delivery was extremely cost effective from a donor perspective at only $64 per DALY averted\, relative to the status quo. The results suggest that price is an important barrier to ORS use in Uganda\, that substantial gains in ORS coverage can be made if CHWs distribute the products for free as opposed to charging\, and that free distribution is highly cost effective.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition on view: Ambiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural
DESCRIPTION:Ambiguous 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 project 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.\nThere will be a public reception to celebrate the opening of this exhibition on Thursday\, October 5 at 5:00pm in the college gallery.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Music\, Work\, Society: Speculations and Mediations at the Jahrhundertwende
DESCRIPTION:In 19th century German cultural and academic life a wide-ranging discussion emerged about the relationship between music\, work\, society\, and political economy. A disparate group sought to position music not as the ancients and early moderns had done\, as a matter of mathematics\, physics\, and cosmic speculation\, but as a matter of biology\, physiology\, ethnology\, sociology\, and economics. Focusing mainly on the political economist Karl Bücher and his influence across various media\, this talk examines one social scientist’s encounter with music and follows its reverberations outside of academic life.\n\nCelia Applegate is the William R. Kenan\, Jr. Chair of History and Professor of History at Vanderbilt University. She studies the culture\, society\, and politics of modern Germany\, with particular interest in the history of music\, nationalism and national identity. She is the author of A Nation of Provincials: The German Idea of Heimat (Berkeley\, 1990)\, the co-editor (with musicologist Pamela Potter) of Music and German National Identity (Chicago\, 2000)\, and the author of Bach in Berlin: Nation and Culture in Mendelssohn’s Revival of the St. Matthew Passion (Cornell\, 2005)\, winner of the DAAD/GSA Book Prize. She is currently working on comprehensive interpretation of musical life in Germany from the 17th century to the present\, titled \"Music and the Germans: A History.\" She teaches courses on modern German politics and culture\, the history of the Holocaust\, of European thought\, and of European nationalism and ethnic conflicts. In 2017-18\, Applegate is a fellow at the Institute for Advanced Study (Princeton\, NJ)\, sponsored by a grant from the Edward T. Cone Foundation as a Edward T. Cone Member in Music Studies.\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to participate in this event\, please contact Germanic Languages & Literatures at 734-764-8018 or germandept@umich.edu at least one week in advance.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Detroit '67: The View from Ann Arbor
DESCRIPTION:A complement to the Reverberations of Rebellion exhibit on display in the Hatcher North lobby\, this event brings together veterans of the '60s era of civil rights activism in Ann Arbor to reflect on that period's struggle for racial justice\, the relationship between Ann Arbor and Detroit\, and what it might mean for us today.\n\nIn the 1960s as today\, Detroit and Ann Arbor were very different cities. Yet they were alike in two respects: both were profoundly segregated by race\, and both were centers of activism to dismantle racism and inequality. Despite Ann Arbor's distance from Detroit\, the 1967 Detroit rebellion resonated here as well.\n\nThe discussion will be moderated by Matt Lassiter\, Arthur F. Thurnau Professor of History\, and feature the following panelists:\n* Shirley Beckley\, Ann Arbor native and Ann Arbor Human Relations Commission staff member\, 1967-8\n* Trey Greene\, U-M '71\; negotiator in '68 black student sit-in and son of Walter Greene\, deputy director\, Michigan Civil Rights Commission\n* Anna Holden\, U-M Institute for Social Research 1960-63\; former secretary\, Ann Arbor Congress of Racial Equality (CORE)\n* Alma Wheeler Smith\, U-M '63\; former state representative and daughter of Albert Wheeler\, first African American mayor of Ann Arbor and first tenured black U-M professor\n\nLight refreshments will be provided.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Dagmar Kročanová: Repairing the World in Gejza Vámoš´s Writing
DESCRIPTION:Dagmar Kročanová: Repairing the World in Gejza Vámoš´s Writing\n\nDagmar Kročanová is associate professor of Slovak literature at Comenius University in Bratislava\, Slovak Republic\, where she also earned her PhD in theory and history of Slovak literature. She is currently working on an anthology of Slovak modernist and avant-garde drama. Professor Kročanová is currently a Weiser Professional Development Fellow at the University of Michigan working on her project\, “Modernism in Slovak Literature between 1900 and 1948\,” in cooperation with Benjamin Paloff\, associate professor of Slavic languages and literatures and comparative literature.\n\nGejza Vámoš (1901\, Hungary – 1956\, Brazil)\, a Slovak writer of a Hungarian Jewish origin\, was once described as an Enfant terrible of Slovak literature. A physician with a PhD in philosophy\, Vámoš challenged traditional values of bourgeois society represented by religion\, family\, and nation. His fiction dealt with issues that were considered shocking and incompatible with the Slovak cultural tradition\, such as sexuality\, diseases\, and women´s emancipation. Vámoš strove to find a unifying principle of universe that would heal the current broken state of mankind. But as his novel Broken Branch (1934) shows\, the gap between his dream of repairing the world and the actual state Europe was too deep to be bridged.\n\nThe event will start at 6:30pm with a light supper followed by the presentation at 7pm. Please RSVP to slavic@umich.edu.\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to participate in this event\, please contact the Slavic department (slavic@umich.edu or 734-764-5355) at least 4 days in advance.  Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for U-M to arrange.

SUMMARY:Other:Recruiting New Members for Fall 2017!
DESCRIPTION:The LSA Honor Council is an undergraduate student organization dedicated to developing initiatives that aid in the promotion of respect\, integrity\, and personal responsibility. We also attend meetings hosted by the Office of Student Academic Affairs for students accused of academic misconduct.   In our recruitment efforts\, we prioritize the importance of forming a council composed of individuals with diverse backgrounds and viewpoints. This spectrum of varied perspectives enables our council to more effectively address issues of integrity on our campus. This upcoming year\, we are recruiting a group of motivated and dedicated LSA students who are interested in working closely with the deans\, faculty\, and fellow students to promote a campus culture that values integrity. This past year\, we have accomplished this goal by hosting faculty department presentations\, tabling events\, and discussions of current ethical issues. Most recently\, we hosted Dr. Victor Strecher from the School of Public Health to present a talk on “Designing a Happy Life.” Given the breadth of our activities\, it is crucial that we incorporate students with diverse skill sets to maximize our council’s potential. We hope that you will join us next fall! Link to application: http://lsastudenthc.weebly.com/become-a-member.html

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Forever Unfinished: Making and Remaking a Public University
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan was founded in 1817 as a public institution\, a concept for which there were few models. What makes a university public? What should it look like? Whom should it serve? Who should have access to its resources\, and where should those resources come from?\n\nThis exhibit explores how students\, faculty\, staff\, politicians\, and citizens have attempted to answer these questions. These stories invite us to imagine U-M's future as a public university based on what we know about its past.\n\nExhibit team: Jonathan Farr\, Nora Krinitsky\, Michelle McClellan\, Gregory Parker\, Emily Price\, Kate Silbert\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester exhibit 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:Gifts of Art presents Photography into Fiber: ArtPrize Winner
DESCRIPTION:Steve and Ann Loveless both grew up in northwestern lower Michigan and love the nature and beauty of the outdoors. Steve is a fine art photographer\, and Ann is a textile artist. After exhibiting some of Ann’s textile designs inspired by Steve’s photography\, they had the idea to create works that morph a photograph into a textile. One aspect of the process is that it can trick the viewer into questioning what they are seeing and invite them to engage more with the work. Northwood Awakening\, a 25 by 5 foot piece that was the ArtPrize 2015 Public Vote Grand Prize winner\, will be on display.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Cut Ups: Paper Collage
DESCRIPTION:Laura Cavanagh is a Michigan native who graduated summa cum laude from the University of Michigan in 2011 with a BFA in Art & Design and a minor in Art History. Cavanagh’s work consists primarily of cut paper and mixed media. Working with these materials allows her to approach her work in much the same way a sculptor does: adding to and cutting away from. Cavanagh finds the artistic process to be deeply meditative. Cavanagh lives and has her studio in a historic home in downtown Rochester\, Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Under Covers: Encaustic & Mixed Media
DESCRIPTION:Cat Crotchett’s current work combines elements of eastern and western cultural patterns in fragments that together form something different than their individual parts. These images represent an intersection of information as well as ideas of cultural appropriation\, assimilation\, fragmentation and alteration. Crotchett uses wax because it is relevant to both eastern and early western artistic cultures. A professional artist for over 30 years\, Crotchett has exhibited nationally and internationally. She is a professor at Western Michigan University and lives in Kalamazoo\, Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents When Pigs Fly: Oil Painting
DESCRIPTION:Professional artist and instructor Gregory Potter believes that anyone can develop artistic skill if they put the work into it. Potter’s teaching helps with that\, but he also shows his paintings in art fairs\, galleries and even Army barrack walls\, anywhere people enjoy art and laughing out loud. A flightless bird\, his flamingo isn’t deep or subversive\, but it does have a top hat and is riding on the back of a zebra that is standing in a nest powered by a propeller. Nothing unusual for a man who served four tours in the Middle East. Working in his home gallery in Franklin\, Indiana\, he is amused as viewers sometimes see his animals as “above all the B.S.” or “leaving without knowing where [they’re] going.”

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Possession\, pop-up exhibition by Jaye Schlesinger
DESCRIPTION:Possession evolved in response to Ann Arbor artist Jaye Schlesinger’s interest in mindfulness and minimalism and the role they play in personal well being.  After disposing (selling\, recycling\, giving away) of everything that no longer served to enrich her life\, Schlesinger decided to merge this exercise with her art practice and depicted all of her remaining possessions in small oil paintings\, 380 in total. The paintings depict objects of functionality and ones of beauty\, eliciting contemplation and conversation about the ‘stuff’ we choose to live with.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Reverberations of Rebellion: 1967 in Detroit and Ann Arbor
DESCRIPTION:The 1967 Detroit rebellion was a pivotal event in the history of the Motor City. While Ann Arbor may seem far removed from Detroit\, the themes of 1967—housing segregation\, media bias\, student activism\, and police violence—resonated here as well. \n\nThis exhibit\, on display in the Hatcher Graduate Library North lobby through September 15\, 2017\, highlights the extensive archival resources of the  Bentley Historical Library and the U-M Library’s Labadie Collection. These materials place the rebellion in the context of 1960s activism against racism and inequality in Detroit and Ann Arbor\, and illustrate the significance and range of press coverage.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Waiting for the Extraordinary installation by Mark Dion
DESCRIPTION:About the installation: As part of the Institute for the Humanities 2017-18  Year of Archives and Futures\, and in celebration of the U-M Bicentennial\, the Institute for the Humanities presents a new iteration of Mark Dion’s Waiting for the Extraordinary\, which was commissioned and first exhibited here in 2011. Inspired by the academic classifications invented by 19th-century Michigan Chief Justice Augustus B. Woodward\, this new\, architecturally scaled installation serves as an archive of the original\, and presents a single room with thirteen plastic sculptures\, each representing one of Woodward’s professorships. As viewers peer into the space and encounter these illuminated objects—reproduced using 3D imaging technology from original objects Dion found in departments and collections across the University of Michigan—they confront questions about the distinction between the rational and subjective in our construction of knowledge\, as well as role of the museum and institutions that continue to determine it.\n\nAbout the artist: Mark Dion’s work examines the ways in which dominant ideologies and public institutions shape our understanding of history\, knowledge\, and the natural world. “The job of the artist\,” he says\, “is to go against the grain of dominant culture\, to challenge perception and convention.” Appropriating archaeological\, field ecology\, and other scientific methods of collecting\, ordering\, and exhibiting objects\, Dion creates works that question the distinctions between ‘objective’ (‘rational’) scientific methods and ‘subjective’ (‘irrational’) influences. Mark Dion questions the objectivity and authoritative role of the scientific voice in contemporary society\, tracking how pseudo-science\, social agendas\, and ideology creep into public discourse and knowledge production.\n\nImage: Mark DION\nWaiting for the\nExtraordinary\n2013\nmixed media\n96 x 61 x 122\ninches\; 243.8 x\n154.9 x 309.9 cm\nCourtesy the artist\nand Tanya Bonakdar\nGallery\, New York

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Reforming the Word: Martin Luther in Context
DESCRIPTION:Highlighting manuscripts and early printed books from the Special Collections Library\, the exhibit commemorates the 500th anniversary of a pivotal transformation in world history. In 1517\, Martin Luther\, a professor of theology and a monk\, published his scathing critique of indulgences\, a church practice that allowed Christians to buy off time from suffering for one’s sins in the afterlife.\n\nIssued in the provincial town of Wittenberg\, Luther's call for academic debate and reform unleashed a series of events that led to the break-up of Latin Christianity. The Reformations that followed forever altered the lives of those in early modern Europe and beyond.\n\nThe late medieval German lands teemed with innovation. Novel forms of piety emerged\, the demand for practical learning grew\, more universities competed for students\, and wealth from both trade and mining transformed social relations. The dissemination of texts and ideas on an industrial scale via the printing press reshaped communication\, knowledge\, and belief. In this context\, reform—the renewal of a lost standard of the past in the present—became a battle-cry for religious\, economic\, and political change.\n\nAudubon Room hours: Monday-Friday 8:30am-6:00pm\, Saturday 10:00am-6:00pm\, Sunday 1:00-6:00pm

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and professor Jim Cogswell has been invited by the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology and the University of Michigan Museum of Art to create a set of public window installations in response to the objects in their collections.  Titled Cosmogonic Tattoos\, his project will use adhesive vinyl images applied in saturated colors to windows in the two buildings\, highlighting the role of these museums in the life of our campus community. Through close examination of objects separated from us by deep chronological and cultural divides\, imaginatively transformed within our campus context\, this project celebrates the power of architecture\, ornament\, and material objects to shape knowledge\, historical memory\, and cultural identity. \n\nLook for displays in the UMMA from April 22-Dec. 3\, the exterior of the Kelsey Museum from June 2-Dec. 17\, and in the interior special exhibition space of the Kelsey Museum from June 2-Sept. 10.\n\nFor information on-the-go about this event and all other Bicentennial happenings\, download our free mobile app: http://guidebook.com/g/umich200.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Transformative Thinking: A Conference on Jacques Derrida's Seminars
DESCRIPTION:This conferences addresses the French-Algerian philosopher Jacques Derrida’s recently published seminars on Martin Heidegger (dating from 1964-65\, titled Heidegger: The Question of Being and History) and Karl Marx (Théorie et pratique: Cours de l’ENS-Ulm 1975-1976).  Of particular interest for this meeting is the evaluation of their importance for contemporary political thought\, under conditions of globalization and the crisis of liberal democracy\, not so much in reference to the way Derrida remains faithful to the philosophers he approaches\, but to the way in which his reading shifts the very ground of our thinking regarding the relation between historicity\, the history of Being\, and our understanding of the the limitations of the political.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:How To Watch Them Watching You
DESCRIPTION:LIVESTREAM: http://myumi.ch/LRzw3\n\nAuditing Algorithms: Adding Accountability to Automated Authority is a group of events designed to produce a white paper that will help to define and develop the emerging research community for “algorithm auditing.” Algorithmic Auditing is a research design that has shown promise in diagnosing the unwanted consequences of algorithmic systems.\n\nAutomated software-based systems in finance\, media\, information\, transportation\, learning\, or any application of computing can easily create outcomes that are unforeseeable by their designers\, so algorithm auditing has the potential to improve the design of these systems by making their consequences visible. Auditing in this sense takes its name from the social scientific “audit study” where one feature is manipulated in a field experiment\, although it is also reminiscent of a financial audit.\n\nThese events and the resulting white paper proposes to coalesce this new area of inquiry and to produce a report characterizing the state of the art and potential future directions. Participants and white paper co-authors will have opportunities to clarify the potential dangers of algorithmic systems\, to specify these dangers as new research problems\, to articulate challenges that they face as researchers interested in this area\, to present existing methods for auditing or needs for new methods\, and to propose research agendas that can provide new insights that advance science and benefit society.\n\nThis initiative is sponsored by the National Science Foundation and co-organized by the University of Michigan\, the University of Illinois\, and Harvard University. Events are hosted at the University of Michigan.\n\nSpeakers:\n\nEric Gilbert\, University of Michigan\nCedric Langbort\, University of Illinois\nCasey Pierce\, University of Michigan\nAshkan Soltani\, former CTO\, US Federal Trade Commission\nChristo Wilson\, Northeastern University

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University of Michigan’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and distinguished U​–M art professor Jim Cogswell has been invited to create a series of public window installations in response to the holdings of the University of Michigan Museum of Art and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology. For this visionary project\, the artist will adhere a procession of vivid images to the glass walls of the museums in a rhythmically evocative narrative\, based on reassembled fragments from a diverse range of artworks in both museums’ permanent collections. The juxtaposed images will address our shared histories and experiences while connecting the viewer to the origins and meaning of objects and their power to shape knowledge\, memory\, and identity. By leveraging the buildings’ unique architecture\, the artist expands our understanding of a museum as a cultural repository and highlights the significant role of these institutions in the life of the campus community.\nCosmogonic Tattoos is on view at UMMA April 22 through December 3\, 2017 and at the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology from June 2 through December 17\, 2017.\nLead support for Cosmogonic Tattoos is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gloss: Modeling Beauty
DESCRIPTION:Focusing on the prominent role of women as the subject of photography\, GLOSS: Modeling Beauty explores the shifting ideals of female beauty that pervade European and American visual culture from the 1920s to today. The exhibition features images of sleek and poised female models and celebrities destined for the glossy pages of fashion magazines and catalogs by leading photographers such as Edward Steichen\, Philippe Halsman\, Helmut Newton\, Andy Warhol\, and Guy Bourdin. Outside of commercial advertising practice\, documentary photographers Elliott Erwitt\, Joel Meyerowitz\, and Ralph Gibson portray candid images of fashionable women on city streets and mannequins in shop windows\, resulting in intriguing juxtapositions of haute couture and everyday life.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Moving Image: Portraiture
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Portraiture presents a contemporary spin on traditional notions of portraiture. In the video Towards An Architect\, Hannu Karjalainen portrays a fictional architect who is experiencing the response of people living in the structures he designed. Daniel Rozin’s Mirror No. 10 is driven by software\, written by the artist\, that generates a real-time reflection of the environment the screen is displayed in—specifically a live sketch of the viewer approaching the frame. Mesocosm (Northumberland\, UK) is an algorithmic work by Marina Zurkow that depicts the passage of time on the moors of Northeast England.\n\nMoving Image: Portraiture is the third of three exhibitions drawn from the collection of the Borusan Contemporary\, Istanbul\, which since 2011 has been focused on media arts. The works in this series address both formal concerns and conceptual topics\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\n\nLead support for Moving Image: Portraiture is provided by the 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:Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa
DESCRIPTION:Before colonization\, complex hierarchical societies flourished in Central and West Africa. At their summits were a select few—kings and chiefs whose authority was derived from their direct connection to powerful ancestors and predecessors. These rulers were wrapped in expensive textiles or costly furs\, and covered in beads and precious metals\, materials that not only signaled their extraordinary status\, but were also intended to safely contain the great power they wielded. The famous minkisi (meaning “power figure”) sculptures of Central Africa were similarly activated through the addition of charged materials. Textiles\, animal skin\, metal\, and beads allowed the lifeless wooden carvings to be activated by local spiritual leaders in order to communicate with the realm of the ancestors and spirits. This exhibition explores the parallels between the adornment of the king’s physical body and minkisi. Drawing on works from UMMA’s collection and several loans\, the exhibition demonstrates how authority was expressed and power contained across a range of historical cultures in Nigeria\, Ghana\, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Cameroon.\n\nLead support for Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors—Part II: Abstraction
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. \n\nThis two-part exhibition presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. Part II: Abstraction\, on view in the A. Alfred Taubman Gallery July 1 through October 29\, showcases modern and contemporary art by Pablo Picasso\, Alberto Giacometti\,\nLouise Nevelson\, Christo\, Lorna Simpson\, José Parlá\, and Do Ho Su\, among others. It also features a fifth-century Korean roof end tile and an Amish quilt\, as well as a work by an Inuit master—thus inviting visitors to explore the pleasures of abstraction across a wide range of media\, eras\, and genres. UMMA extends Part II: Abstraction into the Irving Stenn\, Jr. Family Gallery from August 19 through November 26\, 2017\, with the site-specific installation of Random International’s LED-light and motion-sensing dynamic sculpture\, Swarm Study / II. Victors for Art offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EIHS Workshop: Ritual\, Law\, and Death in the Atlantic World
DESCRIPTION:In the United States\, recent months have seen widespread protests and debates over the presence of monuments to Confederate leaders and to other historical agents of slavery\, colonialism\, and racial exclusion. In The Reaper’s Garden\, Vincent Brown presents such disputes over the public commemoration of the slaveholding past within the frame of “mortuary politics\,” in which the rituals\, practices\, and remembrance of death both uphold and challenge the social order. This panel seeks to generate a conversation between graduate students and Brown’s work\, focusing on the role of death in (1) structures of authority\, (2) popular political action\, and (3) community formation and disruption. Drawing on a variety of different local contexts\, from the nineteenth-century Caribbean to contemporary Africa and Latin America\, the panelists will incorporate evidence from their own research in order to respond to central questions about the generative power and the long afterlife of death in the Atlantic world.\n\nPanelists:\nJamie Andreson\, PhD Candidate\, Anthropology and History\, University of Michigan\nChristine Chalifoux\, PhD Student\, Anthropology\, University of Michigan\nAna Maria Silva\, PhD Candidate\, History\, University of Michigan\nAndrew Walker\, PhD Candidate\, History\, University of Michigan\nWilliam Calvo-Quirós (chair)\, Assistant Professor\, American Culture\, University of Michigan\nVincent Brown (respondent)\, Charles Warren Professor of American History\; Professor\, African and African-American Studies\; Harvard University\n\nFree and open to the public. Lunch provided. \n\nThis event is part of the Friday Series of the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IOE 836 Seminar Series: Blake McGowan\, MS\, CPE
DESCRIPTION:Blake McGowan\, MS\, CPE\, Humantech\n\nTitle: \"Communicating the Value of Ergonomics to Business Stakeholders\"\n\nBio: Blake McGowan\, Managing Consultant and Ergonomics Engineer for Humantech\, oversees large-scale ergonomics initiatives in the pharmaceutical\, oil and gas\, food and beverage\, and manufacturing industries and helps organizations build internal ergonomics expertise using software solutions. His clients include Coca-Cola\, Dow Chemical\, General Electric\, John Deere\, Micron Technologies\, Procter and Gamble\, Tesoro\, and Tyson Foods. He helps lead the Ergonomics Research group to incorporate the latest technical and scientific data into Humantech’s software solutions. He also consults with academia to transfer the latest research knowledge into the Humantech approach\, systems\, assessment methods\, and guidelines.\nBlake received a Bachelor of Science degree in Kinesiology and a Master of Science degree in Biomechanics from the University of Waterloo in Waterloo\, Ontario. Blake has achieved recognition as a Certified Professional Ergonomist (CPE)\, and is a member of the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH)\, the American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA)\, and Human Factors and Ergonomics Society (HFES). He is a past officer of the AIHA Ergonomics Committee.\n\nAbstract: Traditionally\, dependent stakeholders (i.e.\, Safety and Human Resources) appreciate the value of ergonomics. They understand that good ergonomics improves employee well-being. This includes reductions in causal absenteeism\, first aid cases\, modified duty cases\, recordable injuries\, lost-time cases\, worker’s compensation claim costs\, among others.  However\, dominant stakeholders (i.e.\, Plant Leadership\, Quality\, Operations\, Manufacturing\, Board of Directors\, and Investors) generally have a limited awareness or understanding of the value of ergonomics. As a result\, it is often overlooked and underexploited. During this presentation\, participants will learn how to best convey the value of ergonomics to business stakeholders.  This includes how to engage and communicate with business stakeholders\, and how to educate them on the value of ergonomics on business performance.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Special Cosmology Seminar | Integrated Approach to Cosmology
DESCRIPTION:Recent progress in observational cosmology and the establishment of ΛCDM have relied on the combination of different cosmological probes. These probes are not independent\, since they all measure the same physical fields. The resulting cross-correlations allow for a robust test of the cosmological model through the consistency of different physical tracers and for the identification of systematics. Integrated analyses taking into account both the auto- as well as the cross-correlations between cosmological probes therefore present a promising analysis method for both current as well as future data.\n\nIn this talk\, I will present an integrated analysis of CMB temperature anisotropies\, CMB lensing\, galaxy clustering and weak lensing as well as background probes. I will describe the cosmological probe combination framework\, the obtained results and illustrate how this analysis has provided a confirmation of ΛCDM through the consistency of different probes. Furthermore\, I will discuss possible tensions between the derived constraints on cosmological parameters and existing ones.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach Out Series- Hurricanes: What's Next?
DESCRIPTION:The 2017 Atlantic Hurricane season has produced incredibly destructive storms\, and has raised many questions. What drives a hurricane? How accurate are hurricane models? How do authorities prepare for hurricanes and\, when destructive events like Hurricanes Harvey and Irma happen\, how do we respond? Is this hurricane season a fluke\, or should we start planning for more/similar storms? In this Teach-Out\, we will explore the science of hurricanes\, hurricane forecasting and monitoring\, and with what confidence can we attribute these storms to a warming ocean.\n\nTeach-Outs are short learning experiences\, each focused on a specific current issue. Attendees will come together over a few days not only to learn about a subject or event but also to gain skills. Teach-Outs are open to the world and are designed to bring together individuals with wide-ranging perspectives in respectful and deep conversation. These events are an opportunity for diverse learners and a multitude of experts to come together to ask questions of one another and explore new solutions to the pressing concerns of our global community. Come\, join the conversation!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Unfinished Conversation: Encoding/Decoding
DESCRIPTION:On view from September 8-October 14\, 2017 in the Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.\, Ann Arbor)\, The Unfinished Conversation: Encoding/Decoding is a group exhibition including image and video work by Terry Adkins\, John Akomfrah\, Shelagh Keeley\, and Zineb Sedira. There will be an exhibition reception on Friday\, September 8 from 6-8 pm. The exhibition and reception are free and open to the public.\n\nCo-curated by Gaëtane Verna\, Director of The Power Plant\, and Mark Sealy\, The Unfinished Conversation is grounded in the work of cultural theorist Stuart Hall (1932-2014)\, who devoted his life to studying the interweaving threads of culture\, power\, politics\, and history. \n\nTaking Hall’s essay Encoding and Decoding in the Television Discourse as a point of departure\, viewers will be invited to think about how meaning is constructed\; how it is systematically distorted by audience reception\; and how it can be detached and drained of its original intent to produce specific or slanted narratives. Hall’s interdisciplinary approach drew on literary theory\, linguistics\, and cultural anthropology in order to analyse and articulate the relationship between history\, culture\, popular media\, cold war politics\, gender\, and ethnicity.\n\nBy presenting the work of artists who bring into play time\, memory\, and archives so as to construct new readings of the past\, the exhibition will lay emphasis on the idea that the “visual” is an assimilatory process continuously at work in the construction of cultural\, political\, personal\, and national identities.\n\nCo-curators Gaëtane Verna and Mark Sealy state that it is their curatorial intention to build a multiple moving/still/audio archive\, an image map\, a visual vehicle that will ferry the audience across the choppy waters of memory\, images\, and politics to an undeterminable\, obscure\, and un-chartable destination\, where people often meet with a fatal end. The exhibition aims to take viewers on a journey in time\, to bring them to encounter images\, which act as both objects of art and ideas in flux\, circulating in and out of the archive through the corridors of cultural re-construction.\n\nThis image map will be drawn by the work of Terry Adkins\, John Akomfrah\, Shelagh Keeley and Zineb Sedira\, four artists whose practice is devoted primarily to commenting on recent socio-political events and situations and relating them to the not so distant past in order to help us understand the world we live in.\n\nBy stimulating our personal and collective memory\, these works will show us how history agitates and causes anxiety in our personal lives and in the political realm as they will reveal the fact that national identity is not an essence or a state of being\, but a “becoming\,” a process whereby subjectivities are formed in the interstices between such binary oppositions as us/them\, black/white\, or native/foreigner\, and that it is in those in-between spaces that marginalized people are the agents and subjects of many possible futures\, imagined or real.\n\nThe thread that connects all these art works is the artist’s involvement with the significant social issues confronting humanity today and their profound desire to push formal boundaries in order to tackle them.\n\nThe Unfinished Conversation: Encoding/Decoding is organized and circulated by The Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery\, Toronto in partnership with Autograph ABP\, London. The exhibition is co-curated by Gaëtane Verna\, Director\, The Power Plant and Mark Sealy\, Director\, Autograph ABP.\n\nPhoto by Toni Hafkenscheid.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Vital Signs for a New America
DESCRIPTION:On view from September 8-October 14\, 2017 in the Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.\, Ann Arbor)\, Vital Signs for a New America is a group exhibition including work by Dylan Miner\, Sheryl Oring\, and the performance collective The Hinterlands. There will be an exhibition reception on Friday\, September 8 from 6-8 pm. The exhibition and reception are free and open to the public.\n\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra\, Vital Signs for a New America uses a range of meaningful and compelling of community-engaged approaches to invite the public to join Miner\, Oring\, and The Hinterlands in speaking out and sharing stories\; listening and re-learning\; and remembering the past to imagine new possibilities for the future.\n\nActive public engagement is at the heart of Vital Signs for a New America. Each work on view in this group exhibition offers opportunities to interact directly with the artists and their art. As part of the exhibition programming\, the gallery will become a common space for storytelling and tea drinking with Dylan Miner\; a bustling executive assistant’s office with Sheryl Oring\; and a tactile\, expansive personal archive with the performance collective The Hinterlands. Vital Signs invites the public to speak out\, listen\, and imagine new models for inclusive futures.\n\nDylan Miner: Elders Say We Don’t Visit Anymore\nSaturdays\, September 9-October 14\, 1-3 pm\n\nDylan Miner\, Director of American Indian and Indigenous Studies at Michigan State University\, is an artist\, activist\, and scholar. Miner identifies as a Wiisaakodewinini (Métis)\, the Ojibwe designation for a Native male of mixed ancestry. While conducting an oral history project with retired Anishinaabe autoworkers\, elders shared the idea that “we don’t visit as much as we used to” due to the limitations of urbanizations\, wage labor\, and settler colonialism to name a few. In response\, Miner was inspired to explore the methodology of visiting with an art gallery or museum context. Elders Say We Don’t Visit Anymore is a creative action where the public is invited to share tea and conversation with the artist\, creating new friendships and maintaining social relationships within a specific time and place.\n\nSheryl Oring: I Wish to Say \nFriday\, September 8\, 5-6.30 pm and 7-8 pm (two engagements)\nFridays\, September 15-October 13\, 5-7 pm\n\nNationally renowned artist Sheryl Oring’s belief in the value of free expression guaranteed by the American constitution propelled her to initiate I Wish to Say (2004-ongoing)\, a public platform that invites people to voice their concerns about the state-of-affairs in the country to the President of America. For this project\, Oring sets up a portable public office — complete with a manual typewriter — and invites viewers to dictate postcards to the President of the United States\, prompting with a simple phrase: “Do you have a message for the president?” Over the last decade\, Oring has toured this project across the country and more than 3\,000 postcards have been mailed to the White House. Taking place for the first time in Michigan\, Oring will be working with students and volunteers at the Stamps Gallery and in the city of Ann Arbor to spark dialogues not just among artists and academics but also among the diverse public of Ann Arbor on their notes to the President.\n\nThe Hinterlands: The Radicalization Process Papers \nTuesday\, October 3\, 6-7.30pm: History is a Living Weapon (performance)\n\nThe Hinterlands delve into the past to remember and re-learn the cultural memories and collective histories of Detroit and Ann Arbor. A collection of boxes is discovered in the basement of a house on the border of Detroit and Hamtramck. In them\, a rich personal archive of publication clippings\, which appear to chronicle radical U.S. histories of the 60s and 70s. Using the archive as a performative platform\, the artists invite audiences to engage with the materials contained in the boxes that blur the boundaries between fact and fiction\, real and imagined. The ephemera and memorabilia in the The Radicalization Process Papers takes audiences on a journey that navigates layers of historical accounts\, art\, politics\, and cultural artifacts and asks audiences to examine the assumptions of freedom and democracy in popular American culture. Created and compiled by The Hinterlands in collaboration with historian and poet Casey Rocheteau and designer Ben Gaydos.

SUMMARY:Performance:Dance Master Class Repertory Series: Michael Spencer Phillips
DESCRIPTION:Michael Spencer Phillips will lead a modern dance class anchored in the Martha Graham technique but widely influenced by his performing career with Pascal Rioult and Robert Battle. Phillips's class is musical\, rhythmic\, and extremely athletic using Graham's technique as the backbone to contemporary yet technically classical movement. He also focuses on varying quality and texture to build a dancer for performance on stage\, camera\, or site-specific locations. His belief is in utilizing the classic Graham technique in the dance world of today and beyond.\n\nEach Modern Lab session features a different guest artist teaching a master class and sections from their repertory. This panorama of the contemporary dance field is presented to broaden the students’ awareness of potential career possibilities. Each guest artist conducts a 30-minute technique class/warm-up and then teaches repertory that is performed by the class. In the final 15 minutes\, faculty coordinator Bill De Young conducts a Q & A with each artist\, discussing their career\; their recommendations for transitioning from student to professional\, and what they look for when they audition dancers for their projects.\n\nThis event supported in part by the EXCEL Lab.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:PhonDi Discussion Group: Stop phonemes in Afrikaans and Spanish: Investigating the outcome of long-term language in Patagonia\, Argentina
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nThis presentation explores the outcomes of long-term cross-language transfer effects on different domains of bilingual phonological grammar. Our study focuses on a unique Afrikaans-Spanish bilingual community that has lived in Patagonia\, Argentina since the early 1900’s. In this presentation\, we will focus in particular on the production of voiced and voiceless plosives by the Afrikaans-Spanish bilingual speakers in comparison to productions by control L1 Spanish speakers and non-Spanish speaking L1 Afrikaans speakers. Our findings suggest that there are L1-to-L2 transfer effects in especially the production of voiced plosives in the speech of the Afrikaans-Spanish bilinguals (i.e.\, Afrikaans influences their Spanish). We contrast these findings with our previous research on the durational properties of vowels\, which showed L2-to-L1 (but not L1-to-L2) transfer effects for the same group of speakers. Altogether\, our findings speak to the malleability of pronunciation patterns in bilingual speech\, especially in situations of close long-term contact where the L2 becomes the dominant language.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Mediating the Modern: Sound/Image/Text
DESCRIPTION:Mediating the Modern: Sound/Image/Text \n2017 Graduate Student Conference \nGermanic Languages & Literatures at the University of Michigan \nSeptember 29-30 \nKeynote Speaker: Sean Franzel (University of Missouri) \nPresented in Conjunction with the Ann​ual Grilk Lecture: Celia Applegate (Vanderbilt)\n\nDuring the 1980s German media theorist Friedrich Kittler published a series of highly influential books and essays outlining a materialist approach to literary and cultural history\, one freed from hermeneutic fantasies of immediacy and focused instead on the medial conditions that made thought possible in the first place\, the hardware that enabled it to be recorded\, processed\, and transmitted.  Over the last few decades\, scholars in German\, Film\, Music\, and Literary Studies\, and beyond\, have continued to expand on Kittler’s initial insights into the material nature of sound\, image\, and text\, and the medial operations they entail.  Both borrowing from and looking beyond Kittler\, this conference seeks to explore productive points of contact between contemporary media theory\, on the one hand\, and the literary and cultural histories of mediation\, remediation\, and intermediation\, on the other.\n\nFrom Herder’s origins of language and Kant’s public sphere to Nazi propaganda and Siegert’s Kulturtechniken​ \, media and mediation have remained central concepts for understanding German modernities.  Social and political transformations\, in conjunction with technological innovations around 1800/1900/2000 exerted pressure on​ ​existing notions of sound\, image\, and text and vice versa: this feedback loop serves as the springboard for our conference\, “Mediating the Modern: Sound/Image/Text.”\n\nSean Franzel of the University of Missouri will give the conference keynote address on Friday afternoon\, September 29. Preceding the conference\, participants will also have the opportunity to attend the annual Werner Grilk Lecture in German Studies\, given by Celia Applegate\, on Thursday evening\, September 28. Professor Applegate will conduct a workshop for University of Michigan graduate students and conference participants on Friday morning.\n\nFriday\, September 29\n1:30-1:45 — Conference Welcome & Opening Remarks\n1:45-3:15 — Keynote Address: Professor Sean Franzel\, University of Missouri\, Columbia \"Les Cris de Paris: Mediating the Urban Soundscape around 1800\"\n3:30-5:30 — Panel 1: Theorizing Sound\nKatie Wataha\, University of Michigan\, \"Mediating the Inaudible: A Multispecies History of Time-Axis Manipulation\"\nSyamala Roberts\, University of Cambridge\, \"Rilke and Mann Listening to the Gramophone\"\n\nSaturday\, September 30\n10:00-12:00 — Panel 2: Materiality 1800/1900/2000\nWilli Barthold\, Georgetown\, \"Modernity\, Media\, Manga: The Aesthetics of Fragmentation in Eiichirō Oda’s One Piece\"\nRita Laszlo\, University of Toronto\, \"Understanding Kunstempfinden in Ver Sacrum\, the Seminal Magazine of the Vienna Secession\"\nXuxu Song\, UC Irvine\, \"Sympoesie: Frühromantiker and their Athenäum\n1:30-3:30 — Panel 3: Violent Images\, Auditory Objects\nRebecca Smith\, University of Michigan\, \"Architectural Representation and the Auditory Object\"\nNaomi Vaughan\, University of Michigan\, \"Witnesses of a Future Ruin: Alexander Kluge’s Intermedial Demolition of the Nazi Past in Brutalität in Stein\"\nSascha Hosters\, Rutgers University\, \"The Image as Projectile: Abstract and Concrete Violence in Michael Haneke’s Caché\"\n4:00-6:00 — Panel 4: Intermediations: Film\, Literature\, Photography\nElizabeth McNeill\, University of Michigan\, \"Envisioning Modernity: Watching Virginia Woolf’s Mrs. Dalloway Through Das Cabinet des Dr. Caligari\"\nMelissa Elliot\, Michigan State University\, \"Aesthetic\, Medial\, and Cultural Border-Crossing in Jakob der Lügner\"\nMary Hennessy\, University of Michigan\, \"Photography and the Politics of the Image from Sander to Schanelec\"\n6:00-6:15 — Closing Remarks\n\nConference organizers: Domenic Desocio\, Emily Gauld\, and Mary Hennessy\, PhD Candidates in Germanic Languages and Literatures\nPlease contact mediatingthemodern@gmail.com for further informaion.\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to participate in this conference\, please contact the German department\, germandept@umich.edu or 734-764-8018\, at least 5 days in advance of this event.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition Presentation and Opening: The Future Needs..Something Blue
DESCRIPTION:Could anyone have foreseen the technical\, social\, and conceptual issues that have confronted the University of Michigan since its founding 200 years ago\, or the challenges it has faced in the last 100\, 50\, or even five years? In the marshaling of knowledge and expertise\, the greatest achievement of the University lies not in its continuity\, but in its ability to address the unforeseen. Drawing on the student work from the Taubman College Architecture Program\, “The Future Needs…Something Blue” addresses an idea of the future that lies not in the answers to questions we now know\, but in possibilities we are only now beginning to imagine. Sited at the Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning’s Liberty Research Annex\, the display is simultaneously shop window\, gallery\, and salon. Organized around a series of emergent themes it is an interactional space in which to view (in perspective\, parallax\, parallel\, and contrast) the multiple points of view that constitute the future.\n“The Future Needs…Something Blue” is curated by Associate Professor of Practice Julia McMorrough and Associate Professor John McMorrough of studioAPT (Architecture Practice Theory).\nOn Tuesday\, September 19 at 6:00pm there will be an opening reception at the Liberty Research Annex (305 W. Liberty St.\, Ann Arbor). Exhibition on view September 20 - October 29.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:SynSem Discussion Group: The exocentric syntax: how to label {XP\, YP} structures?
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nSince the Bare Phrase Structure was proposed\, ‘projection’\, ‘endocentricity’ and ‘label’ have become just stipulation. In Chomsky (2013)\, based on the simplest Merge\, he argues that ‘label’ must not be formed in narrow syntax and it must be captured by the third factor principle\, i.e.\, labelling algorithm. This exocentric\, search-based system gives rise a new problem: how to label the exocentric structures without any stipulation in narrow syntax? In this talk\, I will present one possible solution in the case of infinitival clauses. Based on Epstein\, Kitahara and Seely (2016)\, I argue that external pair-Merge of phase heads to non-phase heads derives de-phasing effect (a cancellation of phases). The consequences of this analysis are also discussed such as ‘grammatical’ derivations for some cases of improper movement\, including tough-constructions in English\, hyper-raising in Japanese\, and Merge-over-Move principle in terms of labelling.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Theory: Mediated learning
DESCRIPTION:Extended abstract:\n\nWhether they concern crimes\, political or military matters\, or scientific discoveries\, many facts are learned through the intermediation of individuals with special access to information\, such as law enforcement officers\, employees with a security clearance\, auditors or special inspectors\, or experts with specific knowledge. \nFor the public at large as well as for policymakers and other economic agents\, there is often no way of learning about facts other than through these specific intermediaries\, and even the \"exogenous\" signals often featured in economic models\, perhaps an \"accidental\" discovery of evidence\, must be reported by someone whose motives and discovery may potentially be questioned. \nThis paper considers whether societies and organizations can learn about such facts when evidence is i) costly to acquire\, ii) cheap to fabricate or manipulate\, and iii) produced through a sequential process in which each investigator observes the evidence produced by past investigators. \nThe answer turns out to depend on an asymptotic scarcity condition pertaining to the amount of evidence available about the fact. The condition distinguishes\, for example\, between reproducible scientific evidence and the evidence generated by a crime. When evidence is reproducible ad infinitum\, as in the case of some natural sciences\, facts can be learned with a precision that is only limited by the cost of acquisition relative to maximum level of incentives. When evidence is asymptotically scarce\, however\, there is no way of eliciting the truth from the intermediaries\, no matter how numerous they are and no matter how their incentives are structured.\nThe talk will discuss several extensions and limitations of the result\, as well as its various implications for the role of ethical behavior.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Global Fresh Water Ages
DESCRIPTION:The time that rain and melting snow take to flow into a river or to a location under the ground impacts nutrient and contaminant transport\, and is therefore important to sustaining healthy humans and ecosystems. These ‘water ages’ of streamflow and groundwaters have remained poorly understood. Here\, we use stable and radioactive isotope compositions of rain\, snow\, groundwater and streamflow to map the relative amounts of younger versus older water (i) flowing in rivers\, or (ii) discharging from groundwater wells. First\, our research shows that ~1/3 of global streamflow is recent rain or snow that fell and flowed to the stream in less than ~2.3 months. This young streamflow is detectable in the great majority (~90%) of surveyed streams\, implying that most catchments can convey precipitation to the stream channel quite quickly\, possibly leaving little time to detect some soluble pollutants before they reach aquatic ecosystems. Second\, we show that most of the fresh water on the planet is ancient water that has been stored underground form more than 10\,000 years. While vast\, these ‘fossil’ groundwaters are also shown to be vulnerable to modern-era pollutants\, emphasizing that both water quality and sustainability should be considered when managing these deep water resources.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:\"Eating the Face of Christ\, and Other Ways of Interacting with Medieval Manuscripts\"
DESCRIPTION:As literacy grew during the three centuries before the printing press\, people learned not only how to read\, but also how to handle their manuscripts. Certain physical gestures that readers enacted with illuminated manuscripts—including kissing or laying hands on certain images\, and rubbing out the faces of others—imparted a ritual significance to books. Just as our twenty-first-century culture of ever-smaller screens has created a set of gestures and habits that had not previously existed (typing with two thumbs\, scrolling\, clicking\, tapping)\, reading manuscripts\, which were increasingly available in the late Middle Ages\, also gave people a new set of physical gestures. In this talk I consider the settings and circumstances by which readers learned to handle—and deface!—their manuscripts. I argue that people in authority\, including priests\, teachers\, parents\, and legal officials\, touched books publicly to carry out rituals. In so doing\, they inadvertently taught audiences how to handle books in highly physical ways. Cumulative wear in books testifies to how they were used and handled.\n\nKathryn Rudy is a renowned specialist in western medieval manuscripts who came to St Andrews in 2011 from the Royal Library in The Hague\, where she had been Curator of Illuminated Manuscripts for several years. Much of her current research focuses on the social lives of late medieval books\, including their customization for specific sets of owners and their physical use (for instance through ritual touching and kissing) by different groups of viewers. To determine how users interacted with their books she uses modern forensic tools and methods\, such as densometers and UV light\, which yield important information as to how often specific books were interacted with and which kinds of images or texts were singled out for particular tactile or oscular attention. Rudy has published five books\, including Postcards on Parchment: The Social Lives of Medieval Books (Yale University Press\, 2015)\, and Rubrics\, Images and Indulgences in Late Medieval Netherlandish Manuscripts (Leiden: Brill\, 2017).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CSAS Lecture Series | Sarandib\, Lanka\, Ceylon: Banishment and Belonging
DESCRIPTION:The small\, Indian Ocean island known as Sarandib\, Lanka\, and Ceylon has figured as an important site of banishment in different periods and different literary and religious traditions. This talk takes as its starting point the history of the Sri Lankan Malays\, a community descended from 18th century royal exiles from across the Indonesian archipelago\, soldiers in colonial armies\, servants\, convicts\, and others sent to Dutch and British Ceylon\, to consider if and how earlier traditions of banishment mattered to the Malays’ images of\, and sense of belonging to the island. In particular\, the talk explores the Islamic tradition that views the island\, which the Arabs called Sarandib\, as the site of Adam’s Fall from Paradise to earth\, and the ways that ancient story helped frame\, and give meaning to exile in the colonial period. \n    \nRonit Ricci received her PhD in Comparative Literature from UM in 2006.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:NERS Colloquium: : Rami A. Kishek\, IREAP\, Univ of Maryland
DESCRIPTION:Title: Recent Advances in Theory of Multipactor Discharges\n\nAbstract: Multipactor is an electron avalanche occurring when stray electrons are trapped and accelerated by radiofrequency (rf) waves in a vacuum\, hitting walls and ejecting other electrons by secondary electron emission (SEE). The rapid multiplication in the number of electrons ultimately creates noise\, heat and possibly damage in a wide range of environments from space communication systems to accelerators and microwave tubes. Modern design standards use “susceptibility diagrams” for multipactor based on theory developed in the 1950s by Hatch and Williams\, which considers multipactor as a resonant discharge. Observed discrepancies with experiment are accounted for by the addition of arbitrary margins that have no theoretical basis. Modern theories acknowledge that multipactor does not necessarily have a single resonance\, but can exhibit higher periodicity\, or even non-resonant forms. These theories\, however\, rarely depart from the conventional paradigm of presuming a multipactor mode\, then deriving the conditions for that mode\, an exercise that can be exceedingly difficult for more complex trajectories.  A novel approach based on the methodology of nonlinear dynamics and chaos is presented\, in which all possible modes are recovered with no a priori assumptions. Thenewmethodologysystematicallyappliesiterativemapstoidentifymultipactingregion boundaries and stability more reliably and comprehensively than existing models. It does so by globally analyzing the structure of dynamical space\, resulting in bifurcation diagrams that summarize all possible multipactor modes over a wide range of parameters. This information is combined with secondary electron emission properties of the surface material to predict multipactor growth rates and identify parameter regions that are multipactor free. Three-dimensional simulations with the WARP PIC code successfully validate the model under more realistic conditions of random emission velocities of secondaries and more realistic rf field profiles.\n\nBio: Rami A. Kishek is a Research Professor at the Institute for Research in Electronics and Applied Physics at the University of Maryland (UMD)\, where he leads the effort on the University of Maryland Electron Ring Laboratory\, a small research accelerator investigating space charge dynamics. He received his B.S.E. (1993) in Electrical Engineering\, M.S.E. (1995) and Ph.D. (1997) in Nuclear Engineering\, all from the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor. Professor Kishek has over 20 years’ experience in charged particle dynamics and is an expert on space charge effects\, computation\, and multipactor\, where he made groundbreaking contributions to its theoretical modeling. He is a scientific consultant for multiple companies and has advised or co-advised 15 PhD students and guided the research of dozens more graduate\, undergraduate\, and high school students\, and regularly teaches at the US Particle Accelerator School. Kishek is a fellow of APS and the 2015 recipient of the USPAS Prize for Achievement in Accelerator Physics and Technology.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Pre-Doctoral Student - Quinton Skilling
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Memory formation and subsequent recall is vital for survival in animals. It has been shown that synaptic modifications by a discrete subset of neurons forms the initial basis of memory storage and leads to subsequent consolidation of those memories. However\, little is known about how neural network dynamics impact memory storage and consolidation. My project focuses on linking the dynamical properties of neural networks to memory formation through analysis of in vivo mouse recordings and computational modeling. In mice\, we have found that tracking fluctuations of functional network stability (FuNS) from pre- to post-memory training can be used to accurately predict consolidation of a fear memory. We observe that mouse neuronal activity resides near a critical point in a phase transition\, a dynamical regime shown to be important computational feature of neural networks. Through modeling\, we investigated the link between near-critical dynamics and subsequent formation and consolidation of memory. We observed an increase in FuNS only near a dynamical phase transition in a spiking neuron model\, supporting the hypothesis that critical dynamics are important for memory consolidation. Further\, we found that new memories can only be stored near a phase transition in an attractor neural network. In both cases\, we observe long-range correlations increases in FuNS due to the introduction of a memory\, indicating that the full network is participating in information processing. Taken together\, these results indicate that critical dynamics provide a necessary substrate for systems consolidation of memory.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition on view: Ambiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural
DESCRIPTION:Ambiguous 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 project 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.\nThere will be a public reception to celebrate the opening of this exhibition on Thursday\, October 5 at 5:00pm in the college gallery.

SUMMARY:Other:Recruiting New Members for Fall 2017!
DESCRIPTION:The LSA Honor Council is an undergraduate student organization dedicated to developing initiatives that aid in the promotion of respect\, integrity\, and personal responsibility. We also attend meetings hosted by the Office of Student Academic Affairs for students accused of academic misconduct.   In our recruitment efforts\, we prioritize the importance of forming a council composed of individuals with diverse backgrounds and viewpoints. This spectrum of varied perspectives enables our council to more effectively address issues of integrity on our campus. This upcoming year\, we are recruiting a group of motivated and dedicated LSA students who are interested in working closely with the deans\, faculty\, and fellow students to promote a campus culture that values integrity. This past year\, we have accomplished this goal by hosting faculty department presentations\, tabling events\, and discussions of current ethical issues. Most recently\, we hosted Dr. Victor Strecher from the School of Public Health to present a talk on “Designing a Happy Life.” Given the breadth of our activities\, it is crucial that we incorporate students with diverse skill sets to maximize our council’s potential. We hope that you will join us next fall! Link to application: http://lsastudenthc.weebly.com/become-a-member.html

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Photography into Fiber: ArtPrize Winner
DESCRIPTION:Steve and Ann Loveless both grew up in northwestern lower Michigan and love the nature and beauty of the outdoors. Steve is a fine art photographer\, and Ann is a textile artist. After exhibiting some of Ann’s textile designs inspired by Steve’s photography\, they had the idea to create works that morph a photograph into a textile. One aspect of the process is that it can trick the viewer into questioning what they are seeing and invite them to engage more with the work. Northwood Awakening\, a 25 by 5 foot piece that was the ArtPrize 2015 Public Vote Grand Prize winner\, will be on display.

DESCRIPTION:Laura Cavanagh is a Michigan native who graduated summa cum laude from the University of Michigan in 2011 with a BFA in Art & Design and a minor in Art History. Cavanagh’s work consists primarily of cut paper and mixed media. Working with these materials allows her to approach her work in much the same way a sculptor does: adding to and cutting away from. Cavanagh finds the artistic process to be deeply meditative. Cavanagh lives and has her studio in a historic home in downtown Rochester\, Michigan.

DESCRIPTION:Cat Crotchett’s current work combines elements of eastern and western cultural patterns in fragments that together form something different than their individual parts. These images represent an intersection of information as well as ideas of cultural appropriation\, assimilation\, fragmentation and alteration. Crotchett uses wax because it is relevant to both eastern and early western artistic cultures. A professional artist for over 30 years\, Crotchett has exhibited nationally and internationally. She is a professor at Western Michigan University and lives in Kalamazoo\, Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents When Pigs Fly: Oil Painting
DESCRIPTION:Professional artist and instructor Gregory Potter believes that anyone can develop artistic skill if they put the work into it. Potter’s teaching helps with that\, but he also shows his paintings in art fairs\, galleries and even Army barrack walls\, anywhere people enjoy art and laughing out loud. A flightless bird\, his flamingo isn’t deep or subversive\, but it does have a top hat and is riding on the back of a zebra that is standing in a nest powered by a propeller. Nothing unusual for a man who served four tours in the Middle East. Working in his home gallery in Franklin\, Indiana\, he is amused as viewers sometimes see his animals as “above all the B.S.” or “leaving without knowing where [they’re] going.”

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Reverberations of Rebellion: 1967 in Detroit and Ann Arbor
DESCRIPTION:The 1967 Detroit rebellion was a pivotal event in the history of the Motor City. While Ann Arbor may seem far removed from Detroit\, the themes of 1967—housing segregation\, media bias\, student activism\, and police violence—resonated here as well. \n\nThis exhibit\, on display in the Hatcher Graduate Library North lobby through September 15\, 2017\, highlights the extensive archival resources of the  Bentley Historical Library and the U-M Library’s Labadie Collection. These materials place the rebellion in the context of 1960s activism against racism and inequality in Detroit and Ann Arbor\, and illustrate the significance and range of press coverage.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Reforming the Word: Martin Luther in Context
DESCRIPTION:Highlighting manuscripts and early printed books from the Special Collections Library\, the exhibit commemorates the 500th anniversary of a pivotal transformation in world history. In 1517\, Martin Luther\, a professor of theology and a monk\, published his scathing critique of indulgences\, a church practice that allowed Christians to buy off time from suffering for one’s sins in the afterlife.\n\nIssued in the provincial town of Wittenberg\, Luther's call for academic debate and reform unleashed a series of events that led to the break-up of Latin Christianity. The Reformations that followed forever altered the lives of those in early modern Europe and beyond.\n\nThe late medieval German lands teemed with innovation. Novel forms of piety emerged\, the demand for practical learning grew\, more universities competed for students\, and wealth from both trade and mining transformed social relations. The dissemination of texts and ideas on an industrial scale via the printing press reshaped communication\, knowledge\, and belief. In this context\, reform—the renewal of a lost standard of the past in the present—became a battle-cry for religious\, economic\, and political change.\n\nAudubon Room hours: Monday-Friday 8:30am-6:00pm\, Saturday 10:00am-6:00pm\, Sunday 1:00-6:00pm

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and professor Jim Cogswell has been invited by the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology and the University of Michigan Museum of Art to create a set of public window installations in response to the objects in their collections.  Titled Cosmogonic Tattoos\, his project will use adhesive vinyl images applied in saturated colors to windows in the two buildings\, highlighting the role of these museums in the life of our campus community. Through close examination of objects separated from us by deep chronological and cultural divides\, imaginatively transformed within our campus context\, this project celebrates the power of architecture\, ornament\, and material objects to shape knowledge\, historical memory\, and cultural identity. \n\nLook for displays in the UMMA from April 22-Dec. 3\, the exterior of the Kelsey Museum from June 2-Dec. 17\, and in the interior special exhibition space of the Kelsey Museum from June 2-Sept. 10.\n\nFor information on-the-go about this event and all other Bicentennial happenings\, download our free mobile app: http://guidebook.com/g/umich200.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Transformative Thinking: A Conference on Jacques Derrida's Seminars
DESCRIPTION:This conferences addresses the French-Algerian philosopher Jacques Derrida’s recently published seminars on Martin Heidegger (dating from 1964-65\, titled Heidegger: The Question of Being and History) and Karl Marx (Théorie et pratique: Cours de l’ENS-Ulm 1975-1976).  Of particular interest for this meeting is the evaluation of their importance for contemporary political thought\, under conditions of globalization and the crisis of liberal democracy\, not so much in reference to the way Derrida remains faithful to the philosophers he approaches\, but to the way in which his reading shifts the very ground of our thinking regarding the relation between historicity\, the history of Being\, and our understanding of the the limitations of the political.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Forever Unfinished: Making and Remaking a Public University
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan was founded in 1817 as a public institution\, a concept for which there were few models. What makes a university public? What should it look like? Whom should it serve? Who should have access to its resources\, and where should those resources come from?\n\nThis exhibit explores how students\, faculty\, staff\, politicians\, and citizens have attempted to answer these questions. These stories invite us to imagine U-M's future as a public university based on what we know about its past.\n\nExhibit team: Jonathan Farr\, Nora Krinitsky\, Michelle McClellan\, Gregory Parker\, Emily Price\, Kate Silbert\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester exhibit 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:Conference / Symposium:Mediating the Modern: Sound/Image/Text
DESCRIPTION:Mediating the Modern: Sound/Image/Text \n2017 Graduate Student Conference \nGermanic Languages & Literatures at the University of Michigan \nSeptember 29-30 \nKeynote Speaker: Sean Franzel (University of Missouri) \nPresented in Conjunction with the Ann​ual Grilk Lecture: Celia Applegate (Vanderbilt)\n\nDuring the 1980s German media theorist Friedrich Kittler published a series of highly influential books and essays outlining a materialist approach to literary and cultural history\, one freed from hermeneutic fantasies of immediacy and focused instead on the medial conditions that made thought possible in the first place\, the hardware that enabled it to be recorded\, processed\, and transmitted.  Over the last few decades\, scholars in German\, Film\, Music\, and Literary Studies\, and beyond\, have continued to expand on Kittler’s initial insights into the material nature of sound\, image\, and text\, and the medial operations they entail.  Both borrowing from and looking beyond Kittler\, this conference seeks to explore productive points of contact between contemporary media theory\, on the one hand\, and the literary and cultural histories of mediation\, remediation\, and intermediation\, on the other.\n\nFrom Herder’s origins of language and Kant’s public sphere to Nazi propaganda and Siegert’s Kulturtechniken​ \, media and mediation have remained central concepts for understanding German modernities.  Social and political transformations\, in conjunction with technological innovations around 1800/1900/2000 exerted pressure on​ ​existing notions of sound\, image\, and text and vice versa: this feedback loop serves as the springboard for our conference\, “Mediating the Modern: Sound/Image/Text.”\n\nSean Franzel of the University of Missouri will give the conference keynote address on Friday afternoon\, September 29. Preceding the conference\, participants will also have the opportunity to attend the annual Werner Grilk Lecture in German Studies\, given by Celia Applegate\, on Thursday evening\, September 28. Professor Applegate will conduct a workshop for University of Michigan graduate students and conference participants on Friday morning.\n\nFriday\, September 29\n1:30-1:45 — Conference Welcome & Opening Remarks\n1:45-3:15 — Keynote Address: Professor Sean Franzel\, University of Missouri\, Columbia \"Les Cris de Paris: Mediating the Urban Soundscape around 1800\"\n3:30-5:30 — Panel 1: Theorizing Sound\nKatie Wataha\, University of Michigan\, \"Mediating the Inaudible: A Multispecies History of Time-Axis Manipulation\"\nSyamala Roberts\, University of Cambridge\, \"Rilke and Mann Listening to the Gramophone\"\n\nSaturday\, September 30\n10:00-12:00 — Panel 2: Materiality 1800/1900/2000\nWilli Barthold\, Georgetown\, \"Modernity\, Media\, Manga: The Aesthetics of Fragmentation in Eiichirō Oda’s One Piece\"\nRita Laszlo\, University of Toronto\, \"Understanding Kunstempfinden in Ver Sacrum\, the Seminal Magazine of the Vienna Secession\"\nXuxu Song\, UC Irvine\, \"Sympoesie: Frühromantiker and their Athenäum\n1:30-3:30 — Panel 3: Violent Images\, Auditory Objects\nRebecca Smith\, University of Michigan\, \"Architectural Representation and the Auditory Object\"\nNaomi Vaughan\, University of Michigan\, \"Witnesses of a Future Ruin: Alexander Kluge’s Intermedial Demolition of the Nazi Past in Brutalität in Stein\"\nSascha Hosters\, Rutgers University\, \"The Image as Projectile: Abstract and Concrete Violence in Michael Haneke’s Caché\"\n4:00-6:00 — Panel 4: Intermediations: Film\, Literature\, Photography\nElizabeth McNeill\, University of Michigan\, \"Envisioning Modernity: Watching Virginia Woolf’s Mrs. Dalloway Through Das Cabinet des Dr. Caligari\"\nMelissa Elliot\, Michigan State University\, \"Aesthetic\, Medial\, and Cultural Border-Crossing in Jakob der Lügner\"\nMary Hennessy\, University of Michigan\, \"Photography and the Politics of the Image from Sander to Schanelec\"\n6:00-6:15 — Closing Remarks\n\nConference organizers: Domenic Desocio\, Emily Gauld\, and Mary Hennessy\, PhD Candidates in Germanic Languages and Literatures\nPlease contact mediatingthemodern@gmail.com for further informaion.\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to participate in this conference\, please contact the German department\, germandept@umich.edu or 734-764-8018\, at least 5 days in advance of this event.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University of Michigan’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and distinguished U​–M art professor Jim Cogswell has been invited to create a series of public window installations in response to the holdings of the University of Michigan Museum of Art and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology. For this visionary project\, the artist will adhere a procession of vivid images to the glass walls of the museums in a rhythmically evocative narrative\, based on reassembled fragments from a diverse range of artworks in both museums’ permanent collections. The juxtaposed images will address our shared histories and experiences while connecting the viewer to the origins and meaning of objects and their power to shape knowledge\, memory\, and identity. By leveraging the buildings’ unique architecture\, the artist expands our understanding of a museum as a cultural repository and highlights the significant role of these institutions in the life of the campus community.\nCosmogonic Tattoos is on view at UMMA April 22 through December 3\, 2017 and at the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology from June 2 through December 17\, 2017.\nLead support for Cosmogonic Tattoos is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Moving Image: Portraiture
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Portraiture presents a contemporary spin on traditional notions of portraiture. In the video Towards An Architect\, Hannu Karjalainen portrays a fictional architect who is experiencing the response of people living in the structures he designed. Daniel Rozin’s Mirror No. 10 is driven by software\, written by the artist\, that generates a real-time reflection of the environment the screen is displayed in—specifically a live sketch of the viewer approaching the frame. Mesocosm (Northumberland\, UK) is an algorithmic work by Marina Zurkow that depicts the passage of time on the moors of Northeast England.\n\nMoving Image: Portraiture is the third of three exhibitions drawn from the collection of the Borusan Contemporary\, Istanbul\, which since 2011 has been focused on media arts. The works in this series address both formal concerns and conceptual topics\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\n\nLead support for Moving Image: Portraiture is provided by the 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:Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa
DESCRIPTION:Before colonization\, complex hierarchical societies flourished in Central and West Africa. At their summits were a select few—kings and chiefs whose authority was derived from their direct connection to powerful ancestors and predecessors. These rulers were wrapped in expensive textiles or costly furs\, and covered in beads and precious metals\, materials that not only signaled their extraordinary status\, but were also intended to safely contain the great power they wielded. The famous minkisi (meaning “power figure”) sculptures of Central Africa were similarly activated through the addition of charged materials. Textiles\, animal skin\, metal\, and beads allowed the lifeless wooden carvings to be activated by local spiritual leaders in order to communicate with the realm of the ancestors and spirits. This exhibition explores the parallels between the adornment of the king’s physical body and minkisi. Drawing on works from UMMA’s collection and several loans\, the exhibition demonstrates how authority was expressed and power contained across a range of historical cultures in Nigeria\, Ghana\, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Cameroon.\n\nLead support for Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors—Part II: Abstraction
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. \n\nThis two-part exhibition presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. Part II: Abstraction\, on view in the A. Alfred Taubman Gallery July 1 through October 29\, showcases modern and contemporary art by Pablo Picasso\, Alberto Giacometti\,\nLouise Nevelson\, Christo\, Lorna Simpson\, José Parlá\, and Do Ho Su\, among others. It also features a fifth-century Korean roof end tile and an Amish quilt\, as well as a work by an Inuit master—thus inviting visitors to explore the pleasures of abstraction across a wide range of media\, eras\, and genres. UMMA extends Part II: Abstraction into the Irving Stenn\, Jr. Family Gallery from August 19 through November 26\, 2017\, with the site-specific installation of Random International’s LED-light and motion-sensing dynamic sculpture\, Swarm Study / II. Victors for Art offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, 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:Lecture / Discussion:Teach Out Series- Hurricanes: What's Next?
DESCRIPTION:The 2017 Atlantic Hurricane season has produced incredibly destructive storms\, and has raised many questions. What drives a hurricane? How accurate are hurricane models? How do authorities prepare for hurricanes and\, when destructive events like Hurricanes Harvey and Irma happen\, how do we respond? Is this hurricane season a fluke\, or should we start planning for more/similar storms? In this Teach-Out\, we will explore the science of hurricanes\, hurricane forecasting and monitoring\, and with what confidence can we attribute these storms to a warming ocean.\n\nTeach-Outs are short learning experiences\, each focused on a specific current issue. Attendees will come together over a few days not only to learn about a subject or event but also to gain skills. Teach-Outs are open to the world and are designed to bring together individuals with wide-ranging perspectives in respectful and deep conversation. These events are an opportunity for diverse learners and a multitude of experts to come together to ask questions of one another and explore new solutions to the pressing concerns of our global community. Come\, join the conversation!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Unfinished Conversation: Encoding/Decoding
DESCRIPTION:On view from September 8-October 14\, 2017 in the Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.\, Ann Arbor)\, The Unfinished Conversation: Encoding/Decoding is a group exhibition including image and video work by Terry Adkins\, John Akomfrah\, Shelagh Keeley\, and Zineb Sedira. There will be an exhibition reception on Friday\, September 8 from 6-8 pm. The exhibition and reception are free and open to the public.\n\nCo-curated by Gaëtane Verna\, Director of The Power Plant\, and Mark Sealy\, The Unfinished Conversation is grounded in the work of cultural theorist Stuart Hall (1932-2014)\, who devoted his life to studying the interweaving threads of culture\, power\, politics\, and history. \n\nTaking Hall’s essay Encoding and Decoding in the Television Discourse as a point of departure\, viewers will be invited to think about how meaning is constructed\; how it is systematically distorted by audience reception\; and how it can be detached and drained of its original intent to produce specific or slanted narratives. Hall’s interdisciplinary approach drew on literary theory\, linguistics\, and cultural anthropology in order to analyse and articulate the relationship between history\, culture\, popular media\, cold war politics\, gender\, and ethnicity.\n\nBy presenting the work of artists who bring into play time\, memory\, and archives so as to construct new readings of the past\, the exhibition will lay emphasis on the idea that the “visual” is an assimilatory process continuously at work in the construction of cultural\, political\, personal\, and national identities.\n\nCo-curators Gaëtane Verna and Mark Sealy state that it is their curatorial intention to build a multiple moving/still/audio archive\, an image map\, a visual vehicle that will ferry the audience across the choppy waters of memory\, images\, and politics to an undeterminable\, obscure\, and un-chartable destination\, where people often meet with a fatal end. The exhibition aims to take viewers on a journey in time\, to bring them to encounter images\, which act as both objects of art and ideas in flux\, circulating in and out of the archive through the corridors of cultural re-construction.\n\nThis image map will be drawn by the work of Terry Adkins\, John Akomfrah\, Shelagh Keeley and Zineb Sedira\, four artists whose practice is devoted primarily to commenting on recent socio-political events and situations and relating them to the not so distant past in order to help us understand the world we live in.\n\nBy stimulating our personal and collective memory\, these works will show us how history agitates and causes anxiety in our personal lives and in the political realm as they will reveal the fact that national identity is not an essence or a state of being\, but a “becoming\,” a process whereby subjectivities are formed in the interstices between such binary oppositions as us/them\, black/white\, or native/foreigner\, and that it is in those in-between spaces that marginalized people are the agents and subjects of many possible futures\, imagined or real.\n\nThe thread that connects all these art works is the artist’s involvement with the significant social issues confronting humanity today and their profound desire to push formal boundaries in order to tackle them.\n\nThe Unfinished Conversation: Encoding/Decoding is organized and circulated by The Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery\, Toronto in partnership with Autograph ABP\, London. The exhibition is co-curated by Gaëtane Verna\, Director\, The Power Plant and Mark Sealy\, Director\, Autograph ABP.\n\nPhoto by Toni Hafkenscheid.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Vital Signs for a New America
DESCRIPTION:On view from September 8-October 14\, 2017 in the Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.\, Ann Arbor)\, Vital Signs for a New America is a group exhibition including work by Dylan Miner\, Sheryl Oring\, and the performance collective The Hinterlands. There will be an exhibition reception on Friday\, September 8 from 6-8 pm. The exhibition and reception are free and open to the public.\n\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra\, Vital Signs for a New America uses a range of meaningful and compelling of community-engaged approaches to invite the public to join Miner\, Oring\, and The Hinterlands in speaking out and sharing stories\; listening and re-learning\; and remembering the past to imagine new possibilities for the future.\n\nActive public engagement is at the heart of Vital Signs for a New America. Each work on view in this group exhibition offers opportunities to interact directly with the artists and their art. As part of the exhibition programming\, the gallery will become a common space for storytelling and tea drinking with Dylan Miner\; a bustling executive assistant’s office with Sheryl Oring\; and a tactile\, expansive personal archive with the performance collective The Hinterlands. Vital Signs invites the public to speak out\, listen\, and imagine new models for inclusive futures.\n\nDylan Miner: Elders Say We Don’t Visit Anymore\nSaturdays\, September 9-October 14\, 1-3 pm\n\nDylan Miner\, Director of American Indian and Indigenous Studies at Michigan State University\, is an artist\, activist\, and scholar. Miner identifies as a Wiisaakodewinini (Métis)\, the Ojibwe designation for a Native male of mixed ancestry. While conducting an oral history project with retired Anishinaabe autoworkers\, elders shared the idea that “we don’t visit as much as we used to” due to the limitations of urbanizations\, wage labor\, and settler colonialism to name a few. In response\, Miner was inspired to explore the methodology of visiting with an art gallery or museum context. Elders Say We Don’t Visit Anymore is a creative action where the public is invited to share tea and conversation with the artist\, creating new friendships and maintaining social relationships within a specific time and place.\n\nSheryl Oring: I Wish to Say \nFriday\, September 8\, 5-6.30 pm and 7-8 pm (two engagements)\nFridays\, September 15-October 13\, 5-7 pm\n\nNationally renowned artist Sheryl Oring’s belief in the value of free expression guaranteed by the American constitution propelled her to initiate I Wish to Say (2004-ongoing)\, a public platform that invites people to voice their concerns about the state-of-affairs in the country to the President of America. For this project\, Oring sets up a portable public office — complete with a manual typewriter — and invites viewers to dictate postcards to the President of the United States\, prompting with a simple phrase: “Do you have a message for the president?” Over the last decade\, Oring has toured this project across the country and more than 3\,000 postcards have been mailed to the White House. Taking place for the first time in Michigan\, Oring will be working with students and volunteers at the Stamps Gallery and in the city of Ann Arbor to spark dialogues not just among artists and academics but also among the diverse public of Ann Arbor on their notes to the President.\n\nThe Hinterlands: The Radicalization Process Papers \nTuesday\, October 3\, 6-7.30pm: History is a Living Weapon (performance)\n\nThe Hinterlands delve into the past to remember and re-learn the cultural memories and collective histories of Detroit and Ann Arbor. A collection of boxes is discovered in the basement of a house on the border of Detroit and Hamtramck. In them\, a rich personal archive of publication clippings\, which appear to chronicle radical U.S. histories of the 60s and 70s. Using the archive as a performative platform\, the artists invite audiences to engage with the materials contained in the boxes that blur the boundaries between fact and fiction\, real and imagined. The ephemera and memorabilia in the The Radicalization Process Papers takes audiences on a journey that navigates layers of historical accounts\, art\, politics\, and cultural artifacts and asks audiences to examine the assumptions of freedom and democracy in popular American culture. Created and compiled by The Hinterlands in collaboration with historian and poet Casey Rocheteau and designer Ben Gaydos.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition Presentation and Opening: The Future Needs..Something Blue
DESCRIPTION:Could anyone have foreseen the technical\, social\, and conceptual issues that have confronted the University of Michigan since its founding 200 years ago\, or the challenges it has faced in the last 100\, 50\, or even five years? In the marshaling of knowledge and expertise\, the greatest achievement of the University lies not in its continuity\, but in its ability to address the unforeseen. Drawing on the student work from the Taubman College Architecture Program\, “The Future Needs…Something Blue” addresses an idea of the future that lies not in the answers to questions we now know\, but in possibilities we are only now beginning to imagine. Sited at the Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning’s Liberty Research Annex\, the display is simultaneously shop window\, gallery\, and salon. Organized around a series of emergent themes it is an interactional space in which to view (in perspective\, parallax\, parallel\, and contrast) the multiple points of view that constitute the future.\n“The Future Needs…Something Blue” is curated by Associate Professor of Practice Julia McMorrough and Associate Professor John McMorrough of studioAPT (Architecture Practice Theory).\nOn Tuesday\, September 19 at 6:00pm there will be an opening reception at the Liberty Research Annex (305 W. Liberty St.\, Ann Arbor). Exhibition on view September 20 - October 29.

Learn how wind creates waves\, and test the surface tension of different liquids.  How do different fluids mix? Can you ever unmix them?  Learn about how and why U-M researchers are studying fluid dynamics. This demo is filled to the brim with hands-on experiments.  Funded by the National Science Foundation.\n\nHands-on demonstrations are 20-30 minute interactive programs on the 2nd floor of the Museum.​ ​They include both brief presentations highlighting University research and engaging hands-on activities\, and are suitable for adults and children ages 5 and up.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition on view: Ambiguous Territory: Architecture\, Landscape\, and the Postnatural
DESCRIPTION:Ambiguous 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 project 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.\nThere will be a public reception to celebrate the opening of this exhibition on Thursday\, October 5 at 5:00pm in the college gallery.

DESCRIPTION:The LSA Honor Council is an undergraduate student organization dedicated to developing initiatives that aid in the promotion of respect\, integrity\, and personal responsibility. We also attend meetings hosted by the Office of Student Academic Affairs for students accused of academic misconduct.   In our recruitment efforts\, we prioritize the importance of forming a council composed of individuals with diverse backgrounds and viewpoints. This spectrum of varied perspectives enables our council to more effectively address issues of integrity on our campus. This upcoming year\, we are recruiting a group of motivated and dedicated LSA students who are interested in working closely with the deans\, faculty\, and fellow students to promote a campus culture that values integrity. This past year\, we have accomplished this goal by hosting faculty department presentations\, tabling events\, and discussions of current ethical issues. Most recently\, we hosted Dr. Victor Strecher from the School of Public Health to present a talk on “Designing a Happy Life.” Given the breadth of our activities\, it is crucial that we incorporate students with diverse skill sets to maximize our council’s potential. We hope that you will join us next fall! Link to application: http://lsastudenthc.weebly.com/become-a-member.html

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Photography into Fiber: ArtPrize Winner
DESCRIPTION:Steve and Ann Loveless both grew up in northwestern lower Michigan and love the nature and beauty of the outdoors. Steve is a fine art photographer\, and Ann is a textile artist. After exhibiting some of Ann’s textile designs inspired by Steve’s photography\, they had the idea to create works that morph a photograph into a textile. One aspect of the process is that it can trick the viewer into questioning what they are seeing and invite them to engage more with the work. Northwood Awakening\, a 25 by 5 foot piece that was the ArtPrize 2015 Public Vote Grand Prize winner\, will be on display.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Under Covers: Encaustic & Mixed Media
DESCRIPTION:Cat Crotchett’s current work combines elements of eastern and western cultural patterns in fragments that together form something different than their individual parts.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents When Pigs Fly: Oil Painting
DESCRIPTION:Professional artist and instructor Gregory Potter believes that anyone can develop artistic skill if they put the work into it. Potter’s teaching helps with that\, but he also shows his paintings in art fairs\, galleries and even Army barrack walls\, anywhere people enjoy art and laughing out loud. A flightless bird\, his flamingo isn’t deep or subversive\, but it does have a top hat and is riding on the back of a zebra that is standing in a nest powered by a propeller. Nothing unusual for a man who served four tours in the Middle East. Working in his home gallery in Franklin\, Indiana\, he is amused as viewers sometimes see his animals as “above all the B.S.” or “leaving without knowing where [they’re] going.”

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Reverberations of Rebellion: 1967 in Detroit and Ann Arbor
DESCRIPTION:The 1967 Detroit rebellion was a pivotal event in the history of the Motor City. While Ann Arbor may seem far removed from Detroit\, the themes of 1967—housing segregation\, media bias\, student activism\, and police violence—resonated here as well. \n\nThis exhibit\, on display in the Hatcher Graduate Library North lobby through September 15\, 2017\, highlights the extensive archival resources of the  Bentley Historical Library and the U-M Library’s Labadie Collection. These materials place the rebellion in the context of 1960s activism against racism and inequality in Detroit and Ann Arbor\, and illustrate the significance and range of press coverage.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Reforming the Word: Martin Luther in Context
DESCRIPTION:Highlighting manuscripts and early printed books from the Special Collections Library\, the exhibit commemorates the 500th anniversary of a pivotal transformation in world history. In 1517\, Martin Luther\, a professor of theology and a monk\, published his scathing critique of indulgences\, a church practice that allowed Christians to buy off time from suffering for one’s sins in the afterlife.\n\nIssued in the provincial town of Wittenberg\, Luther's call for academic debate and reform unleashed a series of events that led to the break-up of Latin Christianity. The Reformations that followed forever altered the lives of those in early modern Europe and beyond.\n\nThe late medieval German lands teemed with innovation. Novel forms of piety emerged\, the demand for practical learning grew\, more universities competed for students\, and wealth from both trade and mining transformed social relations. The dissemination of texts and ideas on an industrial scale via the printing press reshaped communication\, knowledge\, and belief. In this context\, reform—the renewal of a lost standard of the past in the present—became a battle-cry for religious\, economic\, and political change.\n\nAudubon Room hours: Monday-Friday 8:30am-6:00pm\, Saturday 10:00am-6:00pm\, Sunday 1:00-6:00pm

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and professor Jim Cogswell has been invited by the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology and the University of Michigan Museum of Art to create a set of public window installations in response to the objects in their collections.  Titled Cosmogonic Tattoos\, his project will use adhesive vinyl images applied in saturated colors to windows in the two buildings\, highlighting the role of these museums in the life of our campus community. Through close examination of objects separated from us by deep chronological and cultural divides\, imaginatively transformed within our campus context\, this project celebrates the power of architecture\, ornament\, and material objects to shape knowledge\, historical memory\, and cultural identity. \n\nLook for displays in the UMMA from April 22-Dec. 3\, the exterior of the Kelsey Museum from June 2-Dec. 17\, and in the interior special exhibition space of the Kelsey Museum from June 2-Sept. 10.\n\nFor information on-the-go about this event and all other Bicentennial happenings\, download our free mobile app: http://guidebook.com/g/umich200.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University of Michigan’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and distinguished U​–M art professor Jim Cogswell has been invited to create a series of public window installations in response to the holdings of the University of Michigan Museum of Art and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology. For this visionary project\, the artist will adhere a procession of vivid images to the glass walls of the museums in a rhythmically evocative narrative\, based on reassembled fragments from a diverse range of artworks in both museums’ permanent collections. The juxtaposed images will address our shared histories and experiences while connecting the viewer to the origins and meaning of objects and their power to shape knowledge\, memory\, and identity. By leveraging the buildings’ unique architecture\, the artist expands our understanding of a museum as a cultural repository and highlights the significant role of these institutions in the life of the campus community.\nCosmogonic Tattoos is on view at UMMA April 22 through December 3\, 2017 and at the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology from June 2 through December 17\, 2017.\nLead support for Cosmogonic Tattoos is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gloss: Modeling Beauty
DESCRIPTION:Focusing on the prominent role of women as the subject of photography\, GLOSS: Modeling Beauty explores the shifting ideals of female beauty that pervade European and American visual culture from the 1920s to today. The exhibition features images of sleek and poised female models and celebrities destined for the glossy pages of fashion magazines and catalogs by leading photographers such as Edward Steichen\, Philippe Halsman\, Helmut Newton\, Andy Warhol\, and Guy Bourdin. Outside of commercial advertising practice\, documentary photographers Elliott Erwitt\, Joel Meyerowitz\, and Ralph Gibson portray candid images of fashionable women on city streets and mannequins in shop windows\, resulting in intriguing juxtapositions of haute couture and everyday life. And\nartists James Van Der Zee\, Eduardo Paolozzi\, and Nikki S. Lee employ the visual strategies of traditional fashion photography\, while offering alternative narratives to mainstream notions of female beauty.\n\nLead support for Gloss: Modeling Beauty is provided by Bank of America and Merrill Lynch. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Moving Image: Portraiture
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Portraiture presents a contemporary spin on traditional notions of portraiture. In the video Towards An Architect\, Hannu Karjalainen portrays a fictional architect who is experiencing the response of people living in the structures he designed. Daniel Rozin’s Mirror No. 10 is driven by software\, written by the artist\, that generates a real-time reflection of the environment the screen is displayed in—specifically a live sketch of the viewer approaching the frame. Mesocosm (Northumberland\, UK) is an algorithmic work by Marina Zurkow that depicts the passage of time on the moors of Northeast England.\n\nMoving Image: Portraiture is the third of three exhibitions drawn from the collection of the Borusan Contemporary\, Istanbul\, which since 2011 has been focused on media arts. The works in this series address both formal concerns and conceptual topics\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\n\nLead support for Moving Image: Portraiture is provided by the 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:Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa
DESCRIPTION:Before colonization\, complex hierarchical societies flourished in Central and West Africa. At their summits were a select few—kings and chiefs whose authority was derived from their direct connection to powerful ancestors and predecessors. These rulers were wrapped in expensive textiles or costly furs\, and covered in beads and precious metals\, materials that not only signaled their extraordinary status\, but were also intended to safely contain the great power they wielded. The famous minkisi (meaning “power figure”) sculptures of Central Africa were similarly activated through the addition of charged materials. Textiles\, animal skin\, metal\, and beads allowed the lifeless wooden carvings to be activated by local spiritual leaders in order to communicate with the realm of the ancestors and spirits. This exhibition explores the parallels between the adornment of the king’s physical body and minkisi. Drawing on works from UMMA’s collection and several loans\, the exhibition demonstrates how authority was expressed and power contained across a range of historical cultures in Nigeria\, Ghana\, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Cameroon.\n\nLead support for Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors—Part II: Abstraction
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. \n\nThis two-part exhibition presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. Part II: Abstraction\, on view in the A. Alfred Taubman Gallery July 1 through October 29\, showcases modern and contemporary art by Pablo Picasso\, Alberto Giacometti\,\nLouise Nevelson\, Christo\, Lorna Simpson\, José Parlá\, and Do Ho Su\, among others. It also features a fifth-century Korean roof end tile and an Amish quilt\, as well as a work by an Inuit master—thus inviting visitors to explore the pleasures of abstraction across a wide range of media\, eras\, and genres. UMMA extends Part II: Abstraction into the Irving Stenn\, Jr. Family Gallery from August 19 through November 26\, 2017\, with the site-specific installation of Random International’s LED-light and motion-sensing dynamic sculpture\, Swarm Study / II. Victors for Art offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, 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:Lecture / Discussion:Teach Out Series- Hurricanes: What's Next?
DESCRIPTION:The 2017 Atlantic Hurricane season has produced incredibly destructive storms\, and has raised many questions. What drives a hurricane? How accurate are hurricane models? How do authorities prepare for hurricanes and\, when destructive events like Hurricanes Harvey and Irma happen\, how do we respond? Is this hurricane season a fluke\, or should we start planning for more/similar storms? In this Teach-Out\, we will explore the science of hurricanes\, hurricane forecasting and monitoring\, and with what confidence can we attribute these storms to a warming ocean.\n\nTeach-Outs are short learning experiences\, each focused on a specific current issue. Attendees will come together over a few days not only to learn about a subject or event but also to gain skills. Teach-Outs are open to the world and are designed to bring together individuals with wide-ranging perspectives in respectful and deep conversation. These events are an opportunity for diverse learners and a multitude of experts to come together to ask questions of one another and explore new solutions to the pressing concerns of our global community. Come\, join the conversation!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Forever Unfinished: Making and Remaking a Public University
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan was founded in 1817 as a public institution\, a concept for which there were few models. What makes a university public? What should it look like? Whom should it serve? Who should have access to its resources\, and where should those resources come from?\n\nThis exhibit explores how students\, faculty\, staff\, politicians\, and citizens have attempted to answer these questions. These stories invite us to imagine U-M's future as a public university based on what we know about its past.\n\nExhibit team: Jonathan Farr\, Nora Krinitsky\, Michelle McClellan\, Gregory Parker\, Emily Price\, Kate Silbert\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester exhibit 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:Presentation:Hands-On Demo: Fantastic Fluids
DESCRIPTION:Explore the fascinating world of fluid dynamics!  Together we will discuss what is a “fluid\,” and through experimentation\, we will learn how fluids move and interact. Learn how wind creates waves\, and test the surface tension of different liquids.  How do different fluids mix? Can you ever unmix them?  Learn about how and why U-M researchers are studying fluid dynamics. This demo is filled to the brim with hands-on experiments.  Funded by the National Science Foundation.\n\nHands-on demonstrations are 20-30 minute interactive programs on the 2nd floor of the Museum.​ ​They include both brief presentations highlighting University research and engaging hands-on activities\, and are suitable for adults and children ages 5 and up.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:In Conversation: All wrapped up: Figures of Power in Central and West Africa
DESCRIPTION:This program is free and open to the public\, but space is limited. Please register to secure your place by emailing umma-program-registration@umich.edu. Please include date and title of program in the subject line of your email. \n\nLaura De Becker\, exhibition curator and UMMA's Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, will lead a discussion of the visual elements of so-called \"figures of power\" from across the African continent on display in the exhibition Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa. Interestingly\, the term \"figures of power\" may refer to wooden sculptures - which were seen as containers of powerful spirits and ancestors in their local context - or to living heads of state\, who represent the wealth and power of the nation. Both these categories share important characteristics and are treated in similar ways\, bringing into question the distinction between person and object\, between individual and community.\n\nLead support for Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Well-being:FREE 4-Session Mindfulness Class
DESCRIPTION:REGISTRATION OPEN FOR ALL STUDENTS!\nSundays from 3:45 - 5:00pm (9/24\, 10/1\, 10/8\, 10/22)\n@ Central Student Government Chambers (Michigan Union\, 3rd Floor)\n\nDuring this 4-session class you will be introduced to the practice of mindfulness and learn several skills\, including meditation\, for managing stress and enriching your life. Mindfulness is about developing the ability to be fully attentive to all the moments of your life\, reducing the amount of time you spend worrying about the future or fretting about the past. An important aspect of mindfulness is developing a non-judgmental\, accepting\, even curious\, attitude about your moment-to-moment experience. The more you develop this attitude\, the less you will feel overwhelmed by changes and challenges in your life.\n\nKoru is designed to introduce you to the practice of mindfulness and get you well on your way to developing this important skill. Like learning any new skill\, it takes practice to get comfortable with mindfulness. We invite you to devote yourself to the study and practice of mindfulness over the next four weeks\, and we challenge you to stay curious about what evolves for you as you persistently and patiently practice living mindfully. We also have a free mobile app to track meditation practices for this course!\n\nRegister today before the seats are filled! \n\nFor any questions\, please contact Hitomi Katsumi at hkat@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Forever Unfinished: Making and Remaking a Public University
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan was founded in 1817 as a public institution\, a concept for which there were few models. What makes a university public? What should it look like? Whom should it serve? Who should have access to its resources\, and where should those resources come from?\n\nThis exhibit explores how students\, faculty\, staff\, politicians\, and citizens have attempted to answer these questions. These stories invite us to imagine U-M's future as a public university based on what we know about its past.\n\nExhibit team: Jonathan Farr\, Nora Krinitsky\, Michelle McClellan\, Gregory Parker\, Emily Price\, Kate Silbert\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester exhibit 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.

After exhibiting some of Ann’s textile designs inspired by Steve’s photography\, they had the idea to create works that morph a photograph into a textile. One aspect of the process is that it can trick the viewer into questioning what they are seeing and invite them to engage more with the work. Northwood Awakening\, a 25 by 5 foot piece that was the ArtPrize 2015 Public Vote Grand Prize winner\, will be on display.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Cut Ups: Paper Collage
DESCRIPTION:Laura Cavanagh is a Michigan native who graduated summa cum laude from the University of Michigan in 2011 with a BFA in Art & Design and a minor in Art History. Cavanagh’s work consists primarily of cut paper and mixed media. Working with these materials allows her to approach her work in much the same way a sculptor does: adding to and cutting away from. Cavanagh finds the artistic process to be deeply meditative. Cavanagh lives and has her studio in a historic home in downtown Rochester\, Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Under Covers: Encaustic & Mixed Media
DESCRIPTION:Cat Crotchett’s current work combines elements of eastern and western cultural patterns in fragments that together form something different than their individual parts. These images represent an intersection of information as well as ideas of cultural appropriation\, assimilation\, fragmentation and alteration. Crotchett uses wax because it is relevant to both eastern and early western artistic cultures. A professional artist for over 30 years\, Crotchett has exhibited nationally and internationally. She is a professor at Western Michigan University and lives in Kalamazoo\, Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents When Pigs Fly: Oil Painting
DESCRIPTION:Professional artist and instructor Gregory Potter believes that anyone can develop artistic skill if they put the work into it. Potter’s teaching helps with that\, but he also shows his paintings in art fairs\, galleries and even Army barrack walls\, anywhere people enjoy art and laughing out loud. A flightless bird\, his flamingo isn’t deep or subversive\, but it does have a top hat and is riding on the back of a zebra that is standing in a nest powered by a propeller. Nothing unusual for a man who served four tours in the Middle East. Working in his home gallery in Franklin\, Indiana\, he is amused as viewers sometimes see his animals as “above all the B.S.” or “leaving without knowing where [they’re] going.”

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Possession\, pop-up exhibition by Jaye Schlesinger
DESCRIPTION:Possession evolved in response to Ann Arbor artist Jaye Schlesinger’s interest in mindfulness and minimalism and the role they play in personal well being.  After disposing (selling\, recycling\, giving away) of everything that no longer served to enrich her life\, Schlesinger decided to merge this exercise with her art practice and depicted all of her remaining possessions in small oil paintings\, 380 in total. The paintings depict objects of functionality and ones of beauty\, eliciting contemplation and conversation about the ‘stuff’ we choose to live with.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Reverberations of Rebellion: 1967 in Detroit and Ann Arbor
DESCRIPTION:The 1967 Detroit rebellion was a pivotal event in the history of the Motor City. While Ann Arbor may seem far removed from Detroit\, the themes of 1967—housing segregation\, media bias\, student activism\, and police violence—resonated here as well. \n\nThis exhibit\, on display in the Hatcher Graduate Library North lobby through September 15\, 2017\, highlights the extensive archival resources of the  Bentley Historical Library and the U-M Library’s Labadie Collection. These materials place the rebellion in the context of 1960s activism against racism and inequality in Detroit and Ann Arbor\, and illustrate the significance and range of press coverage.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Waiting for the Extraordinary installation by Mark Dion
DESCRIPTION:About the installation: As part of the Institute for the Humanities 2017-18  Year of Archives and Futures\, and in celebration of the U-M Bicentennial\, the Institute for the Humanities presents a new iteration of Mark Dion’s Waiting for the Extraordinary\, which was commissioned and first exhibited here in 2011. Inspired by the academic classifications invented by 19th-century Michigan Chief Justice Augustus B. Woodward\, this new\, architecturally scaled installation serves as an archive of the original\, and presents a single room with thirteen plastic sculptures\, each representing one of Woodward’s professorships. As viewers peer into the space and encounter these illuminated objects—reproduced using 3D imaging technology from original objects Dion found in departments and collections across the University of Michigan—they confront questions about the distinction between the rational and subjective in our construction of knowledge\, as well as role of the museum and institutions that continue to determine it.\n\nAbout the artist: Mark Dion’s work examines the ways in which dominant ideologies and public institutions shape our understanding of history\, knowledge\, and the natural world. “The job of the artist\,” he says\, “is to go against the grain of dominant culture\, to challenge perception and convention.” Appropriating archaeological\, field ecology\, and other scientific methods of collecting\, ordering\, and exhibiting objects\, Dion creates works that question the distinctions between ‘objective’ (‘rational’) scientific methods and ‘subjective’ (‘irrational’) influences. Mark Dion questions the objectivity and authoritative role of the scientific voice in contemporary society\, tracking how pseudo-science\, social agendas\, and ideology creep into public discourse and knowledge production.\n\nImage: Mark DION\nWaiting for the\nExtraordinary\n2013\nmixed media\n96 x 61 x 122\ninches\; 243.8 x\n154.9 x 309.9 cm\nCourtesy the artist\nand Tanya Bonakdar\nGallery\, New York

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Reforming the Word: Martin Luther in Context
DESCRIPTION:Highlighting manuscripts and early printed books from the Special Collections Library\, the exhibit commemorates the 500th anniversary of a pivotal transformation in world history. In 1517\, Martin Luther\, a professor of theology and a monk\, published his scathing critique of indulgences\, a church practice that allowed Christians to buy off time from suffering for one’s sins in the afterlife.\n\nIssued in the provincial town of Wittenberg\, Luther's call for academic debate and reform unleashed a series of events that led to the break-up of Latin Christianity. The Reformations that followed forever altered the lives of those in early modern Europe and beyond.\n\nThe late medieval German lands teemed with innovation. Novel forms of piety emerged\, the demand for practical learning grew\, more universities competed for students\, and wealth from both trade and mining transformed social relations. The dissemination of texts and ideas on an industrial scale via the printing press reshaped communication\, knowledge\, and belief. In this context\, reform—the renewal of a lost standard of the past in the present—became a battle-cry for religious\, economic\, and political change.\n\nAudubon Room hours: Monday-Friday 8:30am-6:00pm\, Saturday 10:00am-6:00pm\, Sunday 1:00-6:00pm

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and professor Jim Cogswell has been invited by the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology and the University of Michigan Museum of Art to create a set of public window installations in response to the objects in their collections.  Titled Cosmogonic Tattoos\, his project will use adhesive vinyl images applied in saturated colors to windows in the two buildings\, highlighting the role of these museums in the life of our campus community. Through close examination of objects separated from us by deep chronological and cultural divides\, imaginatively transformed within our campus context\, this project celebrates the power of architecture\, ornament\, and material objects to shape knowledge\, historical memory\, and cultural identity. \n\nLook for displays in the UMMA from April 22-Dec. 3\, the exterior of the Kelsey Museum from June 2-Dec. 17\, and in the interior special exhibition space of the Kelsey Museum from June 2-Sept. 10.\n\nFor information on-the-go about this event and all other Bicentennial happenings\, download our free mobile app: http://guidebook.com/g/umich200.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Non/Human Materials Before Modernity
DESCRIPTION:Non/Human Materials Before Modernity considers the materiality and makings of the non/human body. Through a series of short papers\, responses from colleagues\, and larger discussion\, the symposium will provide a forum for thinking cross-disciplinarily and across traditional lines of periodization. The symposium will address how different premodern cultures sought to understand the makings of species\, kinds\, and other divisions between beings and/or things. By historicizing the materialization of non/human bodies\, documenting the many and various strategies by which they have emerged and been constituted\, and tracing the broader cultural impacts of their emergence and constitution\, these panels will challenge the U-M community to re-imagine the materials and effects of non/humanity.\n\nMonday\, October 2\, 2017\n\n9-9:30 am: Welcome and Introductions\n\n9:30-10:50 am: Flesh & Stone\nMiranda Brown (University of Michigan): The Jade Body\nRick Bonnie (Frankel Center\, University of Helsinki): Pure Stale Water: Experiencing Ancient Jewish Ritual Bathing\nErin Brightwell (University of Michigan): response\n\n11:10 am-12:30 pm: Messmates\nMira Balberg (Northwestern University): The Human and Its Double: Snakes\, Humans\, and Dogs in the Palestinian Talmud\nJames McHugh (University of Southern California): Spirits of Liquor and Consciousness as Alcohol in Early Indian Thought\nIan Moyer (University of Michigan): response\n\n2-3:20 pm: Humanimal\nPeggy McCracken (University of Michigan): The Material of Metamorphosis\,\nSonya Özbey (University of Michigan): “Those that Have Blood and Qi”: The Psychophysical Continuum of Humanity and Animality in the Xunzi\nMelanie Yergeau (University of Michigan): response\n\n3:40-5 pm: Malleable Matter\nAileen Das (University of Michigan): An Alchemical Cosmos: Material Fluidity and Transmutation in the Iḫwān al-Ṣafāʾ\nRachel Neis (University of Michigan): Flesh\, Food\, or Family?

DESCRIPTION:Through lecture\, discussion\, and close analysis\, we will explore the work of Emily Dickinson\, arguably the greatest American poet.  When Henry David Thoreau was asked why he never traveled\, he replied “I have traveled much in Concord.” Emily Dickinson also traveled much in her own home of Amherst\, MA. Her narrow\, private world was actually immensely wide and universal. Her small\, focused poems expand our view of the world and of ourselves.\n\nThis study group for those 50 and above will meet for two hours on Mondays October 2 and October 9 led by instructor Joel Nydahl.

DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University of Michigan’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and distinguished U​–M art professor Jim Cogswell has been invited to create a series of public window installations in response to the holdings of the University of Michigan Museum of Art and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology. For this visionary project\, the artist will adhere a procession of vivid images to the glass walls of the museums in a rhythmically evocative narrative\, based on reassembled fragments from a diverse range of artworks in both museums’ permanent collections. The juxtaposed images will address our shared histories and experiences while connecting the viewer to the origins and meaning of objects and their power to shape knowledge\, memory\, and identity. By leveraging the buildings’ unique architecture\, the artist expands our understanding of a museum as a cultural repository and highlights the significant role of these institutions in the life of the campus community.\nCosmogonic Tattoos is on view at UMMA April 22 through December 3\, 2017 and at the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology from June 2 through December 17\, 2017.\nLead support for Cosmogonic Tattoos is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Moving Image: Portraiture
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Portraiture presents a contemporary spin on traditional notions of portraiture. In the video Towards An Architect\, Hannu Karjalainen portrays a fictional architect who is experiencing the response of people living in the structures he designed. Daniel Rozin’s Mirror No. 10 is driven by software\, written by the artist\, that generates a real-time reflection of the environment the screen is displayed in—specifically a live sketch of the viewer approaching the frame. Mesocosm (Northumberland\, UK) is an algorithmic work by Marina Zurkow that depicts the passage of time on the moors of Northeast England.\n\nMoving Image: Portraiture is the third of three exhibitions drawn from the collection of the Borusan Contemporary\, Istanbul\, which since 2011 has been focused on media arts. The works in this series address both formal concerns and conceptual topics\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\n\nLead support for Moving Image: Portraiture is provided by the 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:Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa
DESCRIPTION:Before colonization\, complex hierarchical societies flourished in Central and West Africa. At their summits were a select few—kings and chiefs whose authority was derived from their direct connection to powerful ancestors and predecessors. These rulers were wrapped in expensive textiles or costly furs\, and covered in beads and precious metals\, materials that not only signaled their extraordinary status\, but were also intended to safely contain the great power they wielded. The famous minkisi (meaning “power figure”) sculptures of Central Africa were similarly activated through the addition of charged materials. Textiles\, animal skin\, metal\, and beads allowed the lifeless wooden carvings to be activated by local spiritual leaders in order to communicate with the realm of the ancestors and spirits. This exhibition explores the parallels between the adornment of the king’s physical body and minkisi. Drawing on works from UMMA’s collection and several loans\, the exhibition demonstrates how authority was expressed and power contained across a range of historical cultures in Nigeria\, Ghana\, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Cameroon.\n\nLead support for Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors—Part II: Abstraction
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. \n\nThis two-part exhibition presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. Part II: Abstraction\, on view in the A. Alfred Taubman Gallery July 1 through October 29\, showcases modern and contemporary art by Pablo Picasso\, Alberto Giacometti\,\nLouise Nevelson\, Christo\, Lorna Simpson\, José Parlá\, and Do Ho Su\, among others. It also features a fifth-century Korean roof end tile and an Amish quilt\, as well as a work by an Inuit master—thus inviting visitors to explore the pleasures of abstraction across a wide range of media\, eras\, and genres. UMMA extends Part II: Abstraction into the Irving Stenn\, Jr. Family Gallery from August 19 through November 26\, 2017\, with the site-specific installation of Random International’s LED-light and motion-sensing dynamic sculpture\, Swarm Study / II. Victors for Art offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, 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:Lecture / Discussion:CMENAS Colloquium Series. Non-Violent Activism in Gaza
DESCRIPTION:Non-violent\, anti-occupation activist movements in the West Bank-- particularly in the village of Bil'in-- have attracted global media attention and even won victories in the Israeli courts. Yet similar movements in Gaza have received scant media coverage and failed to gain traction among Gaza civilians. This colloquium talk by former Israel/Palestine journalist Ashley Bates will argue that Gaza's extreme isolation\, combined with the lethal force that is regularly used by the IDF against unarmed demonstrators\, has severely limited the possibilities for Palestinian civilian activists challenging Israel's land and sea blockade of Gaza. \n    \nAshley Bates\, project coordinator at the International Institute's Conflict and Peace Initiative\, previously worked as an independent journalist in Gaza\, the West Bank\, Israel\, and the United States. She also worked for eight years as the Program Director\, and then Executive Director\, of an Israeli-Palestinian dialogue program called Hands of Peace. Ashley lived in Gaza for six months in 2010\, where she covered a grassroots\, non-violent activist movement that expanded rapidly following Israel's deadly raid on a Gaza-bound humanitarian flotilla. The movement subsequently fizzled\, and multiple activists were killed. Ashley's articles have been published in the Nation\, Ha’aretz\, Mother Jones\, Global Post\, the East Bay Express\, Jerusalem Post Magazine\, and the Columbia Journalism Review. Her 2010 blog\, Dispatches from Gaza\, recounts her experiences working as a journalist in Gaza.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Teach Out Series- Fake News\, Facts\, and Alternative Facts
DESCRIPTION:How can you distinguish credible information from “fake news”? Reliable information is at the heart of what makes an effective democracy\, yet many people find it harder to differentiate good journalism from propaganda. Increasingly\, inaccurate information is shared on Facebook and echoed by a growing number of explicitly partisan news outlets. This becomes more problematic because people have a tendency to accept agreeable messages over challenging claims\, even if the former are less objectively credible. In this teach-out\, we examine the processes that generate both accurate and inaccurate news stories\, and that lead people to believe those stories. We then provide a series of tools that ordinary citizens can use to tell fact from fiction.\n\nA Teach-Out is:\n\n-an event – it takes place over a fixed\, short period of time\n\n-an opportunity – it is open for free participation to everyone around the world\n\n-a community – it will be joined by a large number of diverse individuals\n\n-a conversation – an opportunity to give and take ideas and information from people\n\nThe University of Michigan Teach-Out Series provides just-in-time community learning events for participants around the world to come together in conversation with the U-M campus community\, including faculty experts. The U-M Teach-Out Series is part of our deep commitment to engage the public in exploring and understanding the problems\, events\, and phenomena most important to society.\n\nTeach-Outs are short learning experiences\, each focused on a specific current issue. Attendees will come together over a few days not only to learn about a subject or event but also to gain skills. Teach-Outs are open to the world and are designed to bring together individuals with wide-ranging perspectives in respectful and deep conversation. These events are an opportunity for diverse learners and a multitude of experts to come together to ask questions of one another and explore new solutions to the pressing concerns of our global community. Come\, join the conversation!\n\nFind new opportunities at teach-out.org.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach Out Series- Hurricanes: What's Next?
DESCRIPTION:The 2017 Atlantic Hurricane season has produced incredibly destructive storms\, and has raised many questions. What drives a hurricane? How accurate are hurricane models? How do authorities prepare for hurricanes and\, when destructive events like Hurricanes Harvey and Irma happen\, how do we respond? Is this hurricane season a fluke\, or should we start planning for more/similar storms? In this Teach-Out\, we will explore the science of hurricanes\, hurricane forecasting and monitoring\, and with what confidence can we attribute these storms to a warming ocean.\n\nTeach-Outs are short learning experiences\, each focused on a specific current issue.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:CMENAS Colloquium Film Screening. Five Broken Cameras
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a screening of \"Five Broken Cameras.\" An extraordinary work of both cinematic and political activism\, \"5 Broken Cameras\" is a deeply personal\, first-hand account of non-violent resistance in Bil'in\, a West Bank village threatened by encroaching Israeli settlements. \n    \nShot almost entirely by Palestinian farmer Emad Burnat\, who bought his first camera in 2005 to record the birth of his youngest son\, the footage was later turned into a galvanizing cinematic experience by co-directors Guy Davidi and Burnat. \n    \nStructured around the violent destruction of a succession of Burnat's video cameras\, the filmmakers' collaboration follows one family's evolution over five years of village turmoil. Burnat watches from behind the lens as olive trees are bulldozed\, protests intensify\, and lives are lost. \"I feel like the camera protects me\,\" he says\, \"but it's an illusion.\"

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Evolution of Reactor Flux and Spectrum at Daya Bay  and the implications on the\nReactor Antineutrino Anomaly
DESCRIPTION:The reactor antineutrino anomaly (RAA) has been puzzling reactor neutrino physics community since 2011. The RAA refers to the deficit of electron antineutrinos detected by reactor neutrino experiments compared with the number of electron antineutrinos predicted by state of the art reactor models. The Daya Bay experiment has utilized eight functionally identical underground detectors to sample reactor antineutrino fluxes from three pairs of nuclear reactors in South China\, accruing the largest reactor antineutrino sample to date. This talk will summarize Daya Bay's most recent result\, which presents observations of correlations between reactor core fuel evolution and changes in the detected reactor antineutrino flux and energy spectrum. A 10σ variation in IBD yield was found to be energy-dependent\, rejecting the hypothesis of a constant antineutrino energy spectrum at 5.1 standard deviations. While measurements of the linear variation with respect to the fuel content in the IBD spectrum show general agreement with predictions from recent reactor models\, the measured linear variation with respect to the fuel content in the total IBD yield disagrees with recent predictions. This discrepancy indicates that an overall deficit in measured flux with respect to predictions does not result from equal fractional deficits from the primary fission isotopes 235U\, 239Pu\, 238U\, and 241Pu. A 7.8% discrepancy between the observed and predicted 235U yield suggests that this isotope may be the primary contributor to the reactor antineutrino anomaly. \n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:STS Speaker. Representations as Material Forms: Developing a Materialist Perspective on Digital Information
DESCRIPTION:The dominant rhetoric of information technology is that of the virtual and immaterial. STS scholars might observe (and computer scientists admit) that these virtual worlds\, virtual objects\, and virtual experiences are built on a solidly material foundation\, such as server farms\, cable routes\, power generators and air conditioning units. Notwithstanding the materiality of digital infrastructures\, though\, materialist accounts have generally had little purchase on the content of the digital. In this talk\, I will show how we can build on STS and software studies to offer a materialist account of information representations\, drawing attention to the constraints and consequences of representational strategies in databases\, network protocols\, and other digital forms.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Symposium Kickoff and Exhibit Opening
DESCRIPTION:University and community members join forces to deliver a message about climate change through the arts. Featuring cello major Kayla Mathes\, who will perform a piece she has written on climate change\; poet Sandra Steingraber\; and Sara Adlerstein-Gonzalez\, who will formally open an art exhibit she’s curated on climate change.\n\nSara Adlerstein-Gonzalez\, PhD\, has been a research faculty member at the School for Environment and Sustainability the University of Michigan for fourteen years. Her research program is centered on Great Lakes applied aquatic ecology\, with emphasis on population assessments and ecosystem dynamics. She has authored over 50 peer review publications in scientific journals. Dr. Adlerstein is also a visual artist and she is involved with numerous projects bridging the arts and environmental sciences with particular focus on the role of art in conservation. One of her contributions to art and conservation is the creation of the Art & Environment Gallery in SEAS\, where she is director and curator. Dr. Adlerstein is an artist member of the WSG gallery in Ann Arbor and her work is part of public and private collections in countries around the world. Her artwork is featured in Poemas de las Madres (Eastern Washington University Press\, 1996).\n\nKayla Mathes is currently an undergraduate student at the University of Michigan pursuing a double degree in cello performance and environmental science. She was born and raised in Albuquerque\, New Mexico\, and came to Michigan specifically for the music program in pursuit of becoming a professional musician. Half way through her college career\, she discovered a new passion for ecology and environmental sciences which has since taken her down a very different path. She now hopes to pursue a career as a forest ecology researcher and teacher.\n\nBiologist\, author\, and cancer survivor\, Sandra Steingraber\, PhD\, writes about climate change\, ecology\, and the links between human health and the environment. Steingraber’s highly acclaimed book\, Living Downstream: An Ecologist’s Personal Investigation of Cancer and the Environment\, was the first to bring together data on toxic releases with data from US cancer registries and was adapted for the screen in 2010. As both book and documentary film\, Living Downstream has won praise from international media. A contributing essayist and editor for Orion magazine\, Sandra Steingraber is currently a distinguished scholar in residence at Ithaca College in Ithaca\, New York.\n\nMC²: Michigan & the Climate Crisis is presented in conjunction with the Bicentennial LSA Theme Semester with support from: Science for the People\, Office of the Provost\; School for Environment and Sustainability\; College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\; Bicentennial Office\; College of Engineering\, Rackham Graduate School\; Center for the Study of Complex Systems\; Institute for the Humanities\; Ross School of Business\; Joseph A.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IOE 813 Seminar: Xi Jessie Yang\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:Nurses' Trust in Robotic Assistance on the Labor Floor\n\nThe use of automation to assist human performance is growing rapidly. As the capabilities of the automation advances\, there is an increasing possibility that it might function actively to perceive and analyze information\, make decisions\, and execute actions. Ideally\, with the assistance of automation\, task performance of a human should increase. Unfortunately\, performance gains are not always achieved\, one of the reasons being the human’s inappropriate trust in and dependence on automated technologies. In this seminar\, I will present one study I involved in to examine nurses' trust in and dependence on a robotic decision support on the lab floor.\n\nDr. Yang joined the department of IOE at the University of Michigan in 2016 and direct the interaction and collaboration research lab. Prior to that\, She was a postdoc at the computer science and artificial intelligence lab of MIT. She obtained her Ph.D. in Human Factors Engineering in 2014 from Nanyang Technological University Singapore. Her research interests include human-robot interaction and human factors in healthcare. Please refer to http://icrl.engin.umich.edu/ for more information.\n\nThe seminar series “Providing Better Healthcare through Systems Engineering” is presented by the U-M Center for Healthcare Engineering and Patient Safety (CHEPS):  Our mission is to improve the safety and quality of healthcare delivery through a multi-disciplinary\, systems-engineering approach.\n\nFor additional information and to be added to the weekly e-mail for the series\, \nplease contact genehkim@umich.edu

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Forever Unfinished: Making and Remaking a Public University
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan was founded in 1817 as a public institution\, a concept for which there were few models. What makes a university public? What should it look like? Whom should it serve? Who should have access to its resources\, and where should those resources come from?\n\nThis exhibit explores how students\, faculty\, staff\, politicians\, and citizens have attempted to answer these questions. These stories invite us to imagine U-M's future as a public university based on what we know about its past.\n\nExhibit team: Jonathan Farr\, Nora Krinitsky\, Michelle McClellan\, Gregory Parker\, Emily Price\, Kate Silbert\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester exhibit 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:Gifts of Art presents Photography into Fiber: ArtPrize Winner
DESCRIPTION:Steve and Ann Loveless both grew up in northwestern lower Michigan and love the nature and beauty of the outdoors. Steve is a fine art photographer\, and Ann is a textile artist. After exhibiting some of Ann’s textile designs inspired by Steve’s photography\, they had the idea to create works that morph a photograph into a textile. One aspect of the process is that it can trick the viewer into questioning what they are seeing and invite them to engage more with the work. Northwood Awakening\, a 25 by 5 foot piece that was the ArtPrize 2015 Public Vote Grand Prize winner\, will be on display.

DESCRIPTION:Laura Cavanagh is a Michigan native who graduated summa cum laude from the University of Michigan in 2011 with a BFA in Art & Design and a minor in Art History. Cavanagh’s work consists primarily of cut paper and mixed media. Working with these materials allows her to approach her work in much the same way a sculptor does: adding to and cutting away from. Cavanagh finds the artistic process to be deeply meditative. Cavanagh lives and has her studio in a historic home in downtown Rochester\, Michigan.

DESCRIPTION:Cat Crotchett’s current work combines elements of eastern and western cultural patterns in fragments that together form something different than their individual parts. These images represent an intersection of information as well as ideas of cultural appropriation\, assimilation\, fragmentation and alteration. Crotchett uses wax because it is relevant to both eastern and early western artistic cultures. A professional artist for over 30 years\, Crotchett has exhibited nationally and internationally. She is a professor at Western Michigan University and lives in Kalamazoo\, Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents When Pigs Fly: Oil Painting
DESCRIPTION:Professional artist and instructor Gregory Potter believes that anyone can develop artistic skill if they put the work into it. Potter’s teaching helps with that\, but he also shows his paintings in art fairs\, galleries and even Army barrack walls\, anywhere people enjoy art and laughing out loud. A flightless bird\, his flamingo isn’t deep or subversive\, but it does have a top hat and is riding on the back of a zebra that is standing in a nest powered by a propeller. Nothing unusual for a man who served four tours in the Middle East. Working in his home gallery in Franklin\, Indiana\, he is amused as viewers sometimes see his animals as “above all the B.S.” or “leaving without knowing where [they’re] going.”

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Possession\, pop-up exhibition by Jaye Schlesinger
DESCRIPTION:Possession evolved in response to Ann Arbor artist Jaye Schlesinger’s interest in mindfulness and minimalism and the role they play in personal well being.  After disposing (selling\, recycling\, giving away) of everything that no longer served to enrich her life\, Schlesinger decided to merge this exercise with her art practice and depicted all of her remaining possessions in small oil paintings\, 380 in total. The paintings depict objects of functionality and ones of beauty\, eliciting contemplation and conversation about the ‘stuff’ we choose to live with.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Reverberations of Rebellion: 1967 in Detroit and Ann Arbor
DESCRIPTION:The 1967 Detroit rebellion was a pivotal event in the history of the Motor City. While Ann Arbor may seem far removed from Detroit\, the themes of 1967—housing segregation\, media bias\, student activism\, and police violence—resonated here as well. \n\nThis exhibit\, on display in the Hatcher Graduate Library North lobby through September 15\, 2017\, highlights the extensive archival resources of the  Bentley Historical Library and the U-M Library’s Labadie Collection. These materials place the rebellion in the context of 1960s activism against racism and inequality in Detroit and Ann Arbor\, and illustrate the significance and range of press coverage.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Waiting for the Extraordinary installation by Mark Dion
DESCRIPTION:About the installation: As part of the Institute for the Humanities 2017-18  Year of Archives and Futures\, and in celebration of the U-M Bicentennial\, the Institute for the Humanities presents a new iteration of Mark Dion’s Waiting for the Extraordinary\, which was commissioned and first exhibited here in 2011. Inspired by the academic classifications invented by 19th-century Michigan Chief Justice Augustus B. Woodward\, this new\, architecturally scaled installation serves as an archive of the original\, and presents a single room with thirteen plastic sculptures\, each representing one of Woodward’s professorships. As viewers peer into the space and encounter these illuminated objects—reproduced using 3D imaging technology from original objects Dion found in departments and collections across the University of Michigan—they confront questions about the distinction between the rational and subjective in our construction of knowledge\, as well as role of the museum and institutions that continue to determine it.\n\nAbout the artist: Mark Dion’s work examines the ways in which dominant ideologies and public institutions shape our understanding of history\, knowledge\, and the natural world. “The job of the artist\,” he says\, “is to go against the grain of dominant culture\, to challenge perception and convention.” Appropriating archaeological\, field ecology\, and other scientific methods of collecting\, ordering\, and exhibiting objects\, Dion creates works that question the distinctions between ‘objective’ (‘rational’) scientific methods and ‘subjective’ (‘irrational’) influences. Mark Dion questions the objectivity and authoritative role of the scientific voice in contemporary society\, tracking how pseudo-science\, social agendas\, and ideology creep into public discourse and knowledge production.\n\nImage: Mark DION\nWaiting for the\nExtraordinary\n2013\nmixed media\n96 x 61 x 122\ninches\; 243.8 x\n154.9 x 309.9 cm\nCourtesy the artist\nand Tanya Bonakdar\nGallery\, New York

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Non/Human Materials Before Modernity
DESCRIPTION:Non/Human Materials Before Modernity considers the materiality and makings of the non/human body. Through a series of short papers\, responses from colleagues\, and larger discussion\, the symposium will provide a forum for thinking cross-disciplinarily and across traditional lines of periodization. The symposium will address how different premodern cultures sought to understand the makings of species\, kinds\, and other divisions between beings and/or things. By historicizing the materialization of non/human bodies\, documenting the many and various strategies by which they have emerged and been constituted\, and tracing the broader cultural impacts of their emergence and constitution\, these panels will challenge the U-M community to re-imagine the materials and effects of non/humanity.\n\nMonday\, October 2\, 2017\n\n9-9:30 am: Welcome and Introductions\n\n9:30-10:50 am: Flesh & Stone\nMiranda Brown (University of Michigan): The Jade Body\nRick Bonnie (Frankel Center\, University of Helsinki): Pure Stale Water: Experiencing Ancient Jewish Ritual Bathing\nErin Brightwell (University of Michigan): response\n\n11:10 am-12:30 pm: Messmates\nMira Balberg (Northwestern University): The Human and Its Double: Snakes\, Humans\, and Dogs in the Palestinian Talmud\nJames McHugh (University of Southern California): Spirits of Liquor and Consciousness as Alcohol in Early Indian Thought\nIan Moyer (University of Michigan): response\n\n2-3:20 pm: Humanimal\nPeggy McCracken (University of Michigan): The Material of Metamorphosis\,\nSonya Özbey (University of Michigan): “Those that Have Blood and Qi”: The Psychophysical Continuum of Humanity and Animality in the Xunzi\nMelanie Yergeau (University of Michigan): response\n\n3:40-5 pm: Malleable Matter\nAileen Das (University of Michigan): An Alchemical Cosmos: Material Fluidity and Transmutation in the Iḫwān al-Ṣafāʾ\nRachel Neis (University of Michigan): Flesh\, Food\, or Family?

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Reforming the Word: Martin Luther in Context
DESCRIPTION:Highlighting manuscripts and early printed books from the Special Collections Library\, the exhibit commemorates the 500th anniversary of a pivotal transformation in world history. In 1517\, Martin Luther\, a professor of theology and a monk\, published his scathing critique of indulgences\, a church practice that allowed Christians to buy off time from suffering for one’s sins in the afterlife.\n\nIssued in the provincial town of Wittenberg\, Luther's call for academic debate and reform unleashed a series of events that led to the break-up of Latin Christianity. The Reformations that followed forever altered the lives of those in early modern Europe and beyond.\n\nThe late medieval German lands teemed with innovation. Novel forms of piety emerged\, the demand for practical learning grew\, more universities competed for students\, and wealth from both trade and mining transformed social relations. The dissemination of texts and ideas on an industrial scale via the printing press reshaped communication\, knowledge\, and belief. In this context\, reform—the renewal of a lost standard of the past in the present—became a battle-cry for religious\, economic\, and political change.\n\nAudubon Room hours: Monday-Friday 8:30am-6:00pm\, Saturday 10:00am-6:00pm\, Sunday 1:00-6:00pm

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and professor Jim Cogswell has been invited by the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology and the University of Michigan Museum of Art to create a set of public window installations in response to the objects in their collections.  Titled Cosmogonic Tattoos\, his project will use adhesive vinyl images applied in saturated colors to windows in the two buildings\, highlighting the role of these museums in the life of our campus community. Through close examination of objects separated from us by deep chronological and cultural divides\, imaginatively transformed within our campus context\, this project celebrates the power of architecture\, ornament\, and material objects to shape knowledge\, historical memory\, and cultural identity. \n\nLook for displays in the UMMA from April 22-Dec. 3\, the exterior of the Kelsey Museum from June 2-Dec. 17\, and in the interior special exhibition space of the Kelsey Museum from June 2-Sept. 10.\n\nFor information on-the-go about this event and all other Bicentennial happenings\, download our free mobile app: http://guidebook.com/g/umich200.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University of Michigan’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and distinguished U​–M art professor Jim Cogswell has been invited to create a series of public window installations in response to the holdings of the University of Michigan Museum of Art and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology. For this visionary project\, the artist will adhere a procession of vivid images to the glass walls of the museums in a rhythmically evocative narrative\, based on reassembled fragments from a diverse range of artworks in both museums’ permanent collections. The juxtaposed images will address our shared histories and experiences while connecting the viewer to the origins and meaning of objects and their power to shape knowledge\, memory\, and identity. By leveraging the buildings’ unique architecture\, the artist expands our understanding of a museum as a cultural repository and highlights the significant role of these institutions in the life of the campus community.\nCosmogonic Tattoos is on view at UMMA April 22 through December 3\, 2017 and at the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology from June 2 through December 17\, 2017.\nLead support for Cosmogonic Tattoos is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Moving Image: Portraiture
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Portraiture presents a contemporary spin on traditional notions of portraiture. In the video Towards An Architect\, Hannu Karjalainen portrays a fictional architect who is experiencing the response of people living in the structures he designed. Daniel Rozin’s Mirror No. 10 is driven by software\, written by the artist\, that generates a real-time reflection of the environment the screen is displayed in—specifically a live sketch of the viewer approaching the frame. Mesocosm (Northumberland\, UK) is an algorithmic work by Marina Zurkow that depicts the passage of time on the moors of Northeast England.\n\nMoving Image: Portraiture is the third of three exhibitions drawn from the collection of the Borusan Contemporary\, Istanbul\, which since 2011 has been focused on media arts. The works in this series address both formal concerns and conceptual topics\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\n\nLead support for Moving Image: Portraiture is provided by the 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:Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa
DESCRIPTION:Before colonization\, complex hierarchical societies flourished in Central and West Africa. At their summits were a select few—kings and chiefs whose authority was derived from their direct connection to powerful ancestors and predecessors. These rulers were wrapped in expensive textiles or costly furs\, and covered in beads and precious metals\, materials that not only signaled their extraordinary status\, but were also intended to safely contain the great power they wielded. The famous minkisi (meaning “power figure”) sculptures of Central Africa were similarly activated through the addition of charged materials. Textiles\, animal skin\, metal\, and beads allowed the lifeless wooden carvings to be activated by local spiritual leaders in order to communicate with the realm of the ancestors and spirits. This exhibition explores the parallels between the adornment of the king’s physical body and minkisi. Drawing on works from UMMA’s collection and several loans\, the exhibition demonstrates how authority was expressed and power contained across a range of historical cultures in Nigeria\, Ghana\, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Cameroon.\n\nLead support for Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors—Part II: Abstraction
DESCRIPTION:Commemorating the University of Michigan’s 2017 Bicentennial\, Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors celebrates the deep impact of Michigan alumni in the global art world. \n\nThis two-part exhibition presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. Part II: Abstraction\, on view in the A. Alfred Taubman Gallery July 1 through October 29\, showcases modern and contemporary art by Pablo Picasso\, Alberto Giacometti\,\nLouise Nevelson\, Christo\, Lorna Simpson\, José Parlá\, and Do Ho Su\, among others. It also features a fifth-century Korean roof end tile and an Amish quilt\, as well as a work by an Inuit master—thus inviting visitors to explore the pleasures of abstraction across a wide range of media\, eras\, and genres. UMMA extends Part II: Abstraction into the Irving Stenn\, Jr. Family Gallery from August 19 through November 26\, 2017\, with the site-specific installation of Random International’s LED-light and motion-sensing dynamic sculpture\, Swarm Study / II. Victors for Art offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for Art: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, 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:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Tuesday Lecture Series | Firms’ Strategic Use of Political Connections
DESCRIPTION:Please note the new time and location for our 2017-18 lecture series.\n\nWe analyze Chinese listed firms to examine how a firm’s political connections in a location influence the firm’s probability of choosing the focal location to establish new subsidiaries. We find that firms are less likely to choose a politically connected location that also faces higher unemployment rates. We also find that political connections matter less for the choice of locations with more developed markets. Therefore\, firms’ use of political connections is strategic and highly context dependent. \n    \nDr. Nan Jia is an assistant professor of strategic management at the Marshall School of Business\, University of Southern California. She holds a PhD in Strategic Management from the Rotman School of Management\, University of Toronto (Canada)\, and B.A. in Economics from Guanghua School of Management\, Peking University (China). Her research interests include corporate political strategy\, business-governance relationships\, and corporate governance in international business. Her research has been published in the Administrative Science Quarterly\, Management Science\, Strategic Management Journal\, Organizational Science\, and Journal of Politics. Her work is mainly empirical\, but also incorporates economic modeling. She serves on the editorial boards of the Strategic Management Journal and the Journal of International Business Studies.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Teach Out Series- Fake News\, Facts\, and Alternative Facts
DESCRIPTION:How can you distinguish credible information from “fake news”? Reliable information is at the heart of what makes an effective democracy\, yet many people find it harder to differentiate good journalism from propaganda. Increasingly\, inaccurate information is shared on Facebook and echoed by a growing number of explicitly partisan news outlets. This becomes more problematic because people have a tendency to accept agreeable messages over challenging claims\, even if the former are less objectively credible. In this teach-out\, we examine the processes that generate both accurate and inaccurate news stories\, and that lead people to believe those stories. We then provide a series of tools that ordinary citizens can use to tell fact from fiction.\n\nA Teach-Out is:\n\n-an event – it takes place over a fixed\, short period of time\n\n-an opportunity – it is open for free participation to everyone around the world\n\n-a community – it will be joined by a large number of diverse individuals\n\n-a conversation – an opportunity to give and take ideas and information from people\n\nThe University of Michigan Teach-Out Series provides just-in-time community learning events for participants around the world to come together in conversation with the U-M campus community\, including faculty experts. The U-M Teach-Out Series is part of our deep commitment to engage the public in exploring and understanding the problems\, events\, and phenomena most important to society.\n\nTeach-Outs are short learning experiences\, each focused on a specific current issue. Attendees will come together over a few days not only to learn about a subject or event but also to gain skills. Teach-Outs are open to the world and are designed to bring together individuals with wide-ranging perspectives in respectful and deep conversation. These events are an opportunity for diverse learners and a multitude of experts to come together to ask questions of one another and explore new solutions to the pressing concerns of our global community. Come\, join the conversation!\n\nFind new opportunities at teach-out.org.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Unfinished Conversation: Encoding/Decoding
DESCRIPTION:On view from September 8-October 14\, 2017 in the Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.\, Ann Arbor)\, The Unfinished Conversation: Encoding/Decoding is a group exhibition including image and video work by Terry Adkins\, John Akomfrah\, Shelagh Keeley\, and Zineb Sedira. There will be an exhibition reception on Friday\, September 8 from 6-8 pm. The exhibition and reception are free and open to the public.\n\nCo-curated by Gaëtane Verna\, Director of The Power Plant\, and Mark Sealy\, The Unfinished Conversation is grounded in the work of cultural theorist Stuart Hall (1932-2014)\, who devoted his life to studying the interweaving threads of culture\, power\, politics\, and history. \n\nTaking Hall’s essay Encoding and Decoding in the Television Discourse as a point of departure\, viewers will be invited to think about how meaning is constructed\; how it is systematically distorted by audience reception\; and how it can be detached and drained of its original intent to produce specific or slanted narratives. Hall’s interdisciplinary approach drew on literary theory\, linguistics\, and cultural anthropology in order to analyse and articulate the relationship between history\, culture\, popular media\, cold war politics\, gender\, and ethnicity.\n\nBy presenting the work of artists who bring into play time\, memory\, and archives so as to construct new readings of the past\, the exhibition will lay emphasis on the idea that the “visual” is an assimilatory process continuously at work in the construction of cultural\, political\, personal\, and national identities.\n\nCo-curators Gaëtane Verna and Mark Sealy state that it is their curatorial intention to build a multiple moving/still/audio archive\, an image map\, a visual vehicle that will ferry the audience across the choppy waters of memory\, images\, and politics to an undeterminable\, obscure\, and un-chartable destination\, where people often meet with a fatal end. The exhibition aims to take viewers on a journey in time\, to bring them to encounter images\, which act as both objects of art and ideas in flux\, circulating in and out of the archive through the corridors of cultural re-construction.\n\nThis image map will be drawn by the work of Terry Adkins\, John Akomfrah\, Shelagh Keeley and Zineb Sedira\, four artists whose practice is devoted primarily to commenting on recent socio-political events and situations and relating them to the not so distant past in order to help us understand the world we live in.\n\nBy stimulating our personal and collective memory\, these works will show us how history agitates and causes anxiety in our personal lives and in the political realm as they will reveal the fact that national identity is not an essence or a state of being\, but a “becoming\,” a process whereby subjectivities are formed in the interstices between such binary oppositions as us/them\, black/white\, or native/foreigner\, and that it is in those in-between spaces that marginalized people are the agents and subjects of many possible futures\, imagined or real.\n\nThe thread that connects all these art works is the artist’s involvement with the significant social issues confronting humanity today and their profound desire to push formal boundaries in order to tackle them.\n\nThe Unfinished Conversation: Encoding/Decoding is organized and circulated by The Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery\, Toronto in partnership with Autograph ABP\, London. The exhibition is co-curated by Gaëtane Verna\, Director\, The Power Plant and Mark Sealy\, Director\, Autograph ABP.\n\nPhoto by Toni Hafkenscheid.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Vital Signs for a New America
DESCRIPTION:On view from September 8-October 14\, 2017 in the Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.\, Ann Arbor)\, Vital Signs for a New America is a group exhibition including work by Dylan Miner\, Sheryl Oring\, and the performance collective The Hinterlands. There will be an exhibition reception on Friday\, September 8 from 6-8 pm. The exhibition and reception are free and open to the public.\n\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra\, Vital Signs for a New America uses a range of meaningful and compelling of community-engaged approaches to invite the public to join Miner\, Oring\, and The Hinterlands in speaking out and sharing stories\; listening and re-learning\; and remembering the past to imagine new possibilities for the future.\n\nActive public engagement is at the heart of Vital Signs for a New America. Each work on view in this group exhibition offers opportunities to interact directly with the artists and their art. As part of the exhibition programming\, the gallery will become a common space for storytelling and tea drinking with Dylan Miner\; a bustling executive assistant’s office with Sheryl Oring\; and a tactile\, expansive personal archive with the performance collective The Hinterlands. Vital Signs invites the public to speak out\, listen\, and imagine new models for inclusive futures.\n\nDylan Miner: Elders Say We Don’t Visit Anymore\nSaturdays\, September 9-October 14\, 1-3 pm\n\nDylan Miner\, Director of American Indian and Indigenous Studies at Michigan State University\, is an artist\, activist\, and scholar. Miner identifies as a Wiisaakodewinini (Métis)\, the Ojibwe designation for a Native male of mixed ancestry. While conducting an oral history project with retired Anishinaabe autoworkers\, elders shared the idea that “we don’t visit as much as we used to” due to the limitations of urbanizations\, wage labor\, and settler colonialism to name a few. In response\, Miner was inspired to explore the methodology of visiting with an art gallery or museum context. Elders Say We Don’t Visit Anymore is a creative action where the public is invited to share tea and conversation with the artist\, creating new friendships and maintaining social relationships within a specific time and place.\n\nSheryl Oring: I Wish to Say \nFriday\, September 8\, 5-6.30 pm and 7-8 pm (two engagements)\nFridays\, September 15-October 13\, 5-7 pm\n\nNationally renowned artist Sheryl Oring’s belief in the value of free expression guaranteed by the American constitution propelled her to initiate I Wish to Say (2004-ongoing)\, a public platform that invites people to voice their concerns about the state-of-affairs in the country to the President of America. For this project\, Oring sets up a portable public office — complete with a manual typewriter — and invites viewers to dictate postcards to the President of the United States\, prompting with a simple phrase: “Do you have a message for the president?” Over the last decade\, Oring has toured this project across the country and more than 3\,000 postcards have been mailed to the White House. Taking place for the first time in Michigan\, Oring will be working with students and volunteers at the Stamps Gallery and in the city of Ann Arbor to spark dialogues not just among artists and academics but also among the diverse public of Ann Arbor on their notes to the President.\n\nThe Hinterlands: The Radicalization Process Papers \nTuesday\, October 3\, 6-7.30pm: History is a Living Weapon (performance)\n\nThe Hinterlands delve into the past to remember and re-learn the cultural memories and collective histories of Detroit and Ann Arbor. A collection of boxes is discovered in the basement of a house on the border of Detroit and Hamtramck. In them\, a rich personal archive of publication clippings\, which appear to chronicle radical U.S. histories of the 60s and 70s. Using the archive as a performative platform\, the artists invite audiences to engage with the materials contained in the boxes that blur the boundaries between fact and fiction\, real and imagined. The ephemera and memorabilia in the The Radicalization Process Papers takes audiences on a journey that navigates layers of historical accounts\, art\, politics\, and cultural artifacts and asks audiences to examine the assumptions of freedom and democracy in popular American culture. Created and compiled by The Hinterlands in collaboration with historian and poet Casey Rocheteau and designer Ben Gaydos.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Inference of Population Structure & Demographic History of Indigenous Populations of Africa
DESCRIPTION:Inference of population structure and demographic history of indigenous populations from Africa\n\nDr. Hiba Babiker\nMax Planck Institute for the Science of Human History\, Jena\n \nAfrica contains one-third of the world’s languages and its populations have the highest genetic diversity compared to the rest of the world. Focusing on indigenous populations from Africa has the potential to reveal past demographic events and to provide insights into human adaptation and disease susceptibility in Africans and populations of African descent. My talk will explore the genetic variation of Northeast African populations and recent findings from genome-wide analysis of the Dogon populations from West Africa. These findings shed light on the coevolution of languages and genes and highlight the importance of interdisciplinary research in decoding unanswered questions in the human history.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Special Cosmology Seminar | SPIDER: Searching for Primordial Gravitational Waves From a Long Duration Balloon
DESCRIPTION:SPIDER is a CMB polarimeter that completed its first long duration ballooning flight from Antarctica in January 2015. From its vantage point at 36 km above the ground\, it observed 12% of the sky over 16 days at 94 and 150 GHz. I will discuss the design of SPIDER\, including our reasons for choosing the ballooning platform. I will also describe some of the subsystems and how they performed during flight. Then I will show preliminary results from the ongoing data analysis. Finally\, I will give an update on SPIDER 2\, which will add focal planes at 280 GHz to improve our sensitivity to Galactic dust\, and is expected to fly in December of 2018.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Special Lecture: The CheMin X-ray Diffraction instrument:  Design\, development and mineralogical results from its 5-year deployment on the Mars Science Laboratory Rover Curiosity
DESCRIPTION:NASA’s CheMin instrument\, the first X-ray Diffractometer flown in space\, has been operating on Mars for five years.  CheMin was first to establish the quantitative mineralogy of the Mars global soil. The instrument was next used to determine the mineralogy of a 3.7 billion year old lacustrine mudstone\, a result that\, together with findings from other instruments on the MSL Curiosity rover\, documented the first habitable environment found on another planet.  The mineralogy of this mudstone from an ancient playa lake was also used to derive the maximum concentration of CO2 in the early Mars atmosphere\, a surprisingly low value that calls into question the current theory that CO2 greenhouse warming was responsible for the warm and wet environment of early Mars. CheMin identified the mineral tridymite\, indicative of silica-rich volcanism\, in mudstones of the Murray formation on Mt. Sharp. This discovery challenges the paradigm of Mars as a basaltic planet and ushers in a new chapter of comparative terrestrial planetology. CheMin is now being used to systematically sample the sedimentary layers that comprise the lower strata of Mt. Sharp\, a 5\,000 meter high mound of sediments laid down in what was once a crater lake\, characterizing isochemical sediments that through their changing mineralogy\, document the oxidation and drying out of Mars in early Hesperian time. CheMin’s design and development\, from an initial concept in 1991 to acceptance for flight in 2004 will also be described.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | \nThe Power of Strong Spin-Orbit Interactions: Electrical Control of Structural and Physical Properties of Iridates\n
DESCRIPTION:Effects of spin-orbit interactions in condensed matter are an important and rapidly evolving topic.  Strong competition between spin-orbit\, on-site Coulomb and crystalline electric field interactions in iridates drives exotic quantum states that are unique to this group of materials.  In this talk\, we briefly review current experimental studies of iridates\, and then present results of our recent study on electrical-current controlled behavior in iridates. Electrical control of structural and physical properties is a long-sought\, but elusive goal of contemporary science and technology.  We demonstrate that a combination of strong spin-orbit interactions (SOI) and a canted antiferromagnetic (AFM) Mott state is sufficient to attain that goal.  The AFM insulator Sr_2IrO_4 provides a model system in which strong SOI lock canted Ir magnetic moments to IrO_6-octahedra\, causing them to rigidly rotate together.  A novel coupling between an applied electrical current and the canting angle reduces the Néel temperature and drives a large\, non-linear lattice expansion that closely tracks the magnetization\, increases the electron mobility\, and precipitates a unique resistive switching effect. These observations open new avenues for understanding fundamental physics driven by strong SOI in condensed matter\, and provide a new paradigm for functional materials and devices. \n\n\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Margaret Cheung: Molecular Underpinning of Postsynaptic Calmodulin-dependent Calcium Signaling
DESCRIPTION:Calcium (Ca2+) is exquisitely utilized by a cell for transducing external stimuli through its gradient of extracellular (~1000 μM) and intracellular (~0.1 μM) concentration. A broad spectrum of Ca2+ signals are encoded by protein calmodulin (CaM) through specific binding with various targets regulating CaM-dependent Ca2+ signaling pathways in neurons. I will focus on binding between CaM and two specific targets\, Ca2+/CaM-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) and neurogranin (Ng)\, as they antagonistically regulate CaM-dependent Ca2+ signaling pathways in neurons. I will show the impact of bound calmodulin (CaM)-target compound structure on the affinity of calcium (Ca2+) by integrating coarse-grained models and all-atomistic simulations with non-equilibrium physics. We discovered the molecular underpinnings of lowered affinity of Ca2+ for CaM in the presence of Ng by showing that the N-terminal acidic region of Ng peptide pries open the β-sheet structure between the Ca2+ binding loops particularly at C-domain of CaM\, enabling Ca2+ release. In contrast\, CaMKII peptide increases Ca2+ affinity for the C-domain of CaM by stabilizing the two Ca2+ binding loops. Through distinctive structural differences in the bound complexes of apoCaM-Ng13-49 and holoCaM-CaMKII\, CaM’s affinity for Ca2+ is delineated by its progressive mechanism of target binding. I will discuss them in the context of evolution and in the crowded environment.\n\nBio: Margaret Cheung is an Associate Professor of Physics at the University of Houston. She graduated from the National Taiwan University with a bachelor’s degree in chemistry and received her Ph.D. in physics from the University of California\, San Diego.

Learn from leading positive organizational scholars and connect with our community of academics\, students\, staff\, and leaders.\n\nAbout Glomb's talk:\nMany of us have focused on getting a good job. But how many of us have focused on making a job good? So often at work\, we bumble through our days in unintentional ways. What could happen if we were more intentional and recognized the power we have to improve our work lives? \n\nUniversity of Minnesota Professor Theresa Glomb is trying to help others create positive experiences at work through growth\, happiness\, and satisfaction. Ultimately\, Theresa’s trying to make work great (or at least a little better). In this unique blend of research\, personal stories\, and practical disciplines\, based on her TEDx talk\, she shares with us simple\, evidence based micro-interventions to improve our working lives.\n\nAbout Glomb:\nTheresa M. Glomb is the Toro Company-David M. Lilly Chair in the Carlson School of Management at the University of Minnesota. She received her PhD in social\, organizational\, and individual differences psychology from the University of Illinois and her BA in psychology from DePaul University. \n\nHer research suggests the important role of work events\, mood\, and micro-interventions in predicting on the job behavior and employee well-being. She has conducted field research in dozens of companies\, including several Fortune 500 firms\, with thousands of workers as participants. Her research uses a variety of methodologies including experience sampling\, surveys\, interviews\, and physiological assessment. \n\nHer work has been published in top management journals such as the Academy of Management Journal and the Journal of Applied Psychology and cited in media outlets such as the Wall Street Journal\, The Economist\, and Huffington Post.\n\nHost: \nDavid Mayer\, Associate Professor of Management & Organizations\n\nSponsors:\nThe Center for Positive Organizations thanks Sanger Leadership Center\, Tauber Institute for Global Operations\, Samuel Zell & Robert H.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Annual Distinguished Lecture on Europe. What's the Problem with Populism?
DESCRIPTION:Populism is said to be on the rise around the world. Some see it as a threat to democracy\, others hope that it can bring political institutions closer to \"the people.\" The lecture critically assesses these claims and also suggests how we might rethink democracy in light of the dramatic political developments of 2016. \n\nJan-Werner Müller is a professor of politics at Princeton University\, where he is also the founding director of the Project in the History of Political Thought at the Center for Human Values. His publications include \"Constitutional Patriotism\" (2007)\; \"Contesting Democracy: Political Ideas in Twentieth Century Europe\" (2011)\; \"Wo Europa endet: Ungarn\, Brüssel und das Schicksal der liberalen Demokratie\" (2013)\; and \"What Is Populism?\" (2016)\, which has been translated into fifteen languages.\n\nThe lecture is presented in honor of Kathleen Canning\, Sonya G. Rose Collegiate Professor of History\; Chair\, Department of History\; and Arthur F. Thurnau Professor of History\, German\, & Women's Studies at the University of Michigan.

Vital Signs invites the public to speak out\, listen\, and imagine new models for inclusive futures.\n\nThe Hinterlands: The Radicalization Process Papers \nTuesday\, October 3\, 6-7.30pm: History is a Living Weapon (performance)\n\nThe Hinterlands delve into the past to remember and re-learn the cultural memories and collective histories of Detroit and Ann Arbor. A collection of boxes is discovered in the basement of a house on the border of Detroit and Hamtramck. In them\, a rich personal archive of publication clippings\, which appear to chronicle radical U.S. histories of the 60s and 70s. Using the archive as a performative platform\, the artists invite audiences to engage with the materials contained in the boxes that blur the boundaries between fact and fiction\, real and imagined. The ephemera and memorabilia in the The Radicalization Process Papers takes audiences on a journey that navigates layers of historical accounts\, art\, politics\, and cultural artifacts and asks audiences to examine the assumptions of freedom and democracy in popular American culture. Created and compiled by The Hinterlands in collaboration with historian and poet Casey Rocheteau and designer Ben Gaydos.\n\nPhoto by Kat Schleicher/Alverno Presents

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Forever Unfinished: Making and Remaking a Public University
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan was founded in 1817 as a public institution\, a concept for which there were few models. What makes a university public? What should it look like? Whom should it serve? Who should have access to its resources\, and where should those resources come from?\n\nThis exhibit explores how students\, faculty\, staff\, politicians\, and citizens have attempted to answer these questions. These stories invite us to imagine U-M's future as a public university based on what we know about its past.\n\nExhibit team: Jonathan Farr\, Nora Krinitsky\, Michelle McClellan\, Gregory Parker\, Emily Price\, Kate Silbert\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester exhibit 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:Gifts of Art presents Photography into Fiber: ArtPrize Winner
DESCRIPTION:Steve and Ann Loveless both grew up in northwestern lower Michigan and love the nature and beauty of the outdoors. Steve is a fine art photographer\, and Ann is a textile artist. After exhibiting some of Ann’s textile designs inspired by Steve’s photography\, they had the idea to create works that morph a photograph into a textile. One aspect of the process is that it can trick the viewer into questioning what they are seeing and invite them to engage more with the work. Northwood Awakening\, a 25 by 5 foot piece that was the ArtPrize 2015 Public Vote Grand Prize winner\, will be on display.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Under Covers: Encaustic & Mixed Media
DESCRIPTION:Cat Crotchett’s current work combines elements of eastern and western cultural patterns in fragments that together form something different than their individual parts. These images represent an intersection of information as well as ideas of cultural appropriation\, assimilation\, fragmentation and alteration. Crotchett uses wax because it is relevant to both eastern and early western artistic cultures. A professional artist for over 30 years\, Crotchett has exhibited nationally and internationally. She is a professor at Western Michigan University and lives in Kalamazoo\, Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents When Pigs Fly: Oil Painting
DESCRIPTION:Professional artist and instructor Gregory Potter believes that anyone can develop artistic skill if they put the work into it. Potter’s teaching helps with that\, but he also shows his paintings in art fairs\, galleries and even Army barrack walls\, anywhere people enjoy art and laughing out loud. A flightless bird\, his flamingo isn’t deep or subversive\, but it does have a top hat and is riding on the back of a zebra that is standing in a nest powered by a propeller. Nothing unusual for a man who served four tours in the Middle East. Working in his home gallery in Franklin\, Indiana\, he is amused as viewers sometimes see his animals as “above all the B.S.” or “leaving without knowing where [they’re] going.”

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Possession\, pop-up exhibition by Jaye Schlesinger
DESCRIPTION:Possession evolved in response to Ann Arbor artist Jaye Schlesinger’s interest in mindfulness and minimalism and the role they play in personal well being.  After disposing (selling\, recycling\, giving away) of everything that no longer served to enrich her life\, Schlesinger decided to merge this exercise with her art practice and depicted all of her remaining possessions in small oil paintings\, 380 in total. The paintings depict objects of functionality and ones of beauty\, eliciting contemplation and conversation about the ‘stuff’ we choose to live with.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Reverberations of Rebellion: 1967 in Detroit and Ann Arbor
DESCRIPTION:The 1967 Detroit rebellion was a pivotal event in the history of the Motor City. While Ann Arbor may seem far removed from Detroit\, the themes of 1967—housing segregation\, media bias\, student activism\, and police violence—resonated here as well. \n\nThis exhibit\, on display in the Hatcher Graduate Library North lobby through September 15\, 2017\, highlights the extensive archival resources of the  Bentley Historical Library and the U-M Library’s Labadie Collection. These materials place the rebellion in the context of 1960s activism against racism and inequality in Detroit and Ann Arbor\, and illustrate the significance and range of press coverage.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Waiting for the Extraordinary installation by Mark Dion
DESCRIPTION:About the installation: As part of the Institute for the Humanities 2017-18  Year of Archives and Futures\, and in celebration of the U-M Bicentennial\, the Institute for the Humanities presents a new iteration of Mark Dion’s Waiting for the Extraordinary\, which was commissioned and first exhibited here in 2011. Inspired by the academic classifications invented by 19th-century Michigan Chief Justice Augustus B. Woodward\, this new\, architecturally scaled installation serves as an archive of the original\, and presents a single room with thirteen plastic sculptures\, each representing one of Woodward’s professorships. As viewers peer into the space and encounter these illuminated objects—reproduced using 3D imaging technology from original objects Dion found in departments and collections across the University of Michigan—they confront questions about the distinction between the rational and subjective in our construction of knowledge\, as well as role of the museum and institutions that continue to determine it.\n\nAbout the artist: Mark Dion’s work examines the ways in which dominant ideologies and public institutions shape our understanding of history\, knowledge\, and the natural world. “The job of the artist\,” he says\, “is to go against the grain of dominant culture\, to challenge perception and convention.” Appropriating archaeological\, field ecology\, and other scientific methods of collecting\, ordering\, and exhibiting objects\, Dion creates works that question the distinctions between ‘objective’ (‘rational’) scientific methods and ‘subjective’ (‘irrational’) influences. Mark Dion questions the objectivity and authoritative role of the scientific voice in contemporary society\, tracking how pseudo-science\, social agendas\, and ideology creep into public discourse and knowledge production.\n\nImage: Mark DION\nWaiting for the\nExtraordinary\n2013\nmixed media\n96 x 61 x 122\ninches\; 243.8 x\n154.9 x 309.9 cm\nCourtesy the artist\nand Tanya Bonakdar\nGallery\, New York

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Reforming the Word: Martin Luther in Context
DESCRIPTION:Highlighting manuscripts and early printed books from the Special Collections Library\, the exhibit commemorates the 500th anniversary of a pivotal transformation in world history. In 1517\, Martin Luther\, a professor of theology and a monk\, published his scathing critique of indulgences\, a church practice that allowed Christians to buy off time from suffering for one’s sins in the afterlife.\n\nIssued in the provincial town of Wittenberg\, Luther's call for academic debate and reform unleashed a series of events that led to the break-up of Latin Christianity. The Reformations that followed forever altered the lives of those in early modern Europe and beyond.\n\nThe late medieval German lands teemed with innovation. Novel forms of piety emerged\, the demand for practical learning grew\, more universities competed for students\, and wealth from both trade and mining transformed social relations. The dissemination of texts and ideas on an industrial scale via the printing press reshaped communication\, knowledge\, and belief. In this context\, reform—the renewal of a lost standard of the past in the present—became a battle-cry for religious\, economic\, and political change.\n\nAudubon Room hours: Monday-Friday 8:30am-6:00pm\, Saturday 10:00am-6:00pm\, Sunday 1:00-6:00pm

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and professor Jim Cogswell has been invited by the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology and the University of Michigan Museum of Art to create a set of public window installations in response to the objects in their collections.  Titled Cosmogonic Tattoos\, his project will use adhesive vinyl images applied in saturated colors to windows in the two buildings\, highlighting the role of these museums in the life of our campus community. Through close examination of objects separated from us by deep chronological and cultural divides\, imaginatively transformed within our campus context\, this project celebrates the power of architecture\, ornament\, and material objects to shape knowledge\, historical memory\, and cultural identity. \n\nLook for displays in the UMMA from April 22-Dec. 3\, the exterior of the Kelsey Museum from June 2-Dec. 17\, and in the interior special exhibition space of the Kelsey Museum from June 2-Sept. 10.\n\nFor information on-the-go about this event and all other Bicentennial happenings\, download our free mobile app: http://guidebook.com/g/umich200.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Poverty Simulation & Dr. Scott Allard Keynote
DESCRIPTION:On October 6th\, Poverty Solutions will offer two back-to-back events to engage the University of Michigan in thinking about Poverty. First\, Scott Allard will give a talk about the rise of suburban poverty. Then\, there will be a Poverty Simulation open to all U of M students. The goal of the Poverty Simulation is to begin to understand what it might be like for a typical low-income family to survive from month to month. The simulation framework was carefully developed by the Missouri Community Action Network\, a nationally recognized community-based organization with expertise developing experiential learning models on poverty-related issues.\n\nYou may register for either of the two events separately\, or choose to attend both. Note that Dr. Allard's keynote is open to anyone\, while the Poverty Simulation is open only to U-M students of all levels. Please see the Poverty Simulation Registration page for more details on the specifics of that event. \n\nWhile this exercise does not fully reflect what it is like to live in poverty\, it is designed to give participants specific realistic challenges associated with feeding your family\, paying your bills\, finding employment\, and navigating many more challenges. The goal is to have students reflect and learn ways to take action\, promote justice\, and be an ally to those living in a real state of poverty. Want to know more? Check out the FAQs: http://poverty.umich.edu/poverty-simulation-event_faq/\n\nThe agenda for the day will be as follows:\n12pm: Keynote Address by Scott Allard\, Professor at the Evans School of Public Affairs at the University of Washington\n1pm-2pm: Lunch Reception for Dr. Allard's talk\; Check-in for Poverty Simulation\n2pm: Simulation Begins\n4:30pm-5:30pm: Debrief & Expert Panel\n\n*Simulation is now FULL. Talk is open to the public.

DESCRIPTION:One of the major themes of American history is race. The tensions of recent years\, the presence in government of believers in white supremacy\, and the general \nignorance of past conditions of slavery and vicious prejudice against black people make clear there is much to be learned if we are to live in an equitable and just \nsociety. \n\nThis study group for those 50 and above will be divided into two parts\, (1) Slavery and (2) Jim Crow and Civil Rights\, and examines our history with a focus on black-white relations\, black suffering\, and black achievements.\n\nInstructor Kenneth Phifer will lead two hour sessions on Wednesdays from October 4 through November 15.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University of Michigan’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and distinguished U​–M art professor Jim Cogswell has been invited to create a series of public window installations in response to the holdings of the University of Michigan Museum of Art and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology. For this visionary project\, the artist will adhere a procession of vivid images to the glass walls of the museums in a rhythmically evocative narrative\, based on reassembled fragments from a diverse range of artworks in both museums’ permanent collections. The juxtaposed images will address our shared histories and experiences while connecting the viewer to the origins and meaning of objects and their power to shape knowledge\, memory\, and identity. By leveraging the buildings’ unique architecture\, the artist expands our understanding of a museum as a cultural repository and highlights the significant role of these institutions in the life of the campus community.\nCosmogonic Tattoos is on view at UMMA April 22 through December 3\, 2017 and at the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology from June 2 through December 17\, 2017.\nLead support for Cosmogonic Tattoos is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gloss: Modeling Beauty
DESCRIPTION:Focusing on the prominent role of women as the subject of photography\, GLOSS: Modeling Beauty explores the shifting ideals of female beauty that pervade European and American visual culture from the 1920s to today. The exhibition features images of sleek and poised female models and celebrities destined for the glossy pages of fashion magazines and catalogs by leading photographers such as Edward Steichen\, Philippe Halsman\, Helmut Newton\, Andy Warhol\, and Guy Bourdin. Outside of commercial advertising practice\, documentary photographers Elliott Erwitt\, Joel Meyerowitz\, and Ralph Gibson portray candid images of fashionable women on city streets and mannequins in shop windows\, resulting in intriguing juxtapositions of haute couture and everyday life. And\nartists James Van Der Zee\, Eduardo Paolozzi\, and Nikki S. Lee employ the visual strategies of traditional fashion photography\, while offering alternative narratives to mainstream notions of female beauty.\n\nLead support for Gloss: Modeling Beauty is provided by Bank of America and Merrill Lynch.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Moving Image: Portraiture
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Portraiture presents a contemporary spin on traditional notions of portraiture. In the video Towards An Architect\, Hannu Karjalainen portrays a fictional architect who is experiencing the response of people living in the structures he designed. Daniel Rozin’s Mirror No. 10 is driven by software\, written by the artist\, that generates a real-time reflection of the environment the screen is displayed in—specifically a live sketch of the viewer approaching the frame. Mesocosm (Northumberland\, UK) is an algorithmic work by Marina Zurkow that depicts the passage of time on the moors of Northeast England.\n\nMoving Image: Portraiture is the third of three exhibitions drawn from the collection of the Borusan Contemporary\, Istanbul\, which since 2011 has been focused on media arts. The works in this series address both formal concerns and conceptual topics\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\n\nLead support for Moving Image: Portraiture is provided by the 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:Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa
DESCRIPTION:Before colonization\, complex hierarchical societies flourished in Central and West Africa. At their summits were a select few—kings and chiefs whose authority was derived from their direct connection to powerful ancestors and predecessors. These rulers were wrapped in expensive textiles or costly furs\, and covered in beads and precious metals\, materials that not only signaled their extraordinary status\, but were also intended to safely contain the great power they wielded. The famous minkisi (meaning “power figure”) sculptures of Central Africa were similarly activated through the addition of charged materials. Textiles\, animal skin\, metal\, and beads allowed the lifeless wooden carvings to be activated by local spiritual leaders in order to communicate with the realm of the ancestors and spirits. This exhibition explores the parallels between the adornment of the king’s physical body and minkisi. Drawing on works from UMMA’s collection and several loans\, the exhibition demonstrates how authority was expressed and power contained across a range of historical cultures in Nigeria\, Ghana\, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Cameroon.\n\nLead support for Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Carbon Pricing Canada Style: Pricing carbon in a post-Paris\, Trump era
DESCRIPTION:Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy\, Betty Ford Classroom (1110)\n735 S. State Street\, Ann Arbor  48109-3091\n11:30am-1:00pm (pizza lunch provided)\n \nFree and open to the public\n\nAbout the lecture: Can a carbon price survive in a highly decentralized\, fossil-fuel producing nation that is tightly integrated with the economy of the United States? Against the backdrop of worldwide interest in carbon pricing as a way to meet commitments made in Paris\, and in the context of a Trump presidency\, this talk examines the history\, origins and prospects of carbon pricing in Canada. The talk will focus on recent efforts at developing a national carbon price framework at the federal level\, the challenges now facing the current federal government as it moves toward implementation\, and the prospects for carbon pricing in the future. Specific attention will be paid to the role of recalcitrant provinces\, a divided public\, and the influence of political developments in the United States. The talk will also explore key controversies over carbon pricing\, and highlight potential lessons from the Canadian experience.\n\nErick Lachapelle is an Associate Professor in the Department of Political Science at the Université de Montréal where he teaches courses on international environmental politics\, comparative public policy and research methods. He received his Ph.D. in Political Science from the University of Toronto where he completed his dissertation entitled\, Energy Security and Climate Change Policy in the OECD: The Political Economy of Carbon Energy Taxation. Author of two dozen peer-reviewed journal articles and book chapters\, Erick is the lead researcher for the Canadian Surveys on Energy and the Environment\, and is also a Research Partner with EcoAnalytics. His research examines the politics of climate change and energy policy\, environmental public opinion\, risk perception\, and political communication around climate policy and the transition toward a clean economy from both a comparative and international perspective.\n\nSponsored by: University of Michigan Center for Local\, State\, and Urban Policy (CLOSUP)\n\nCo-Sponsors: University of Michigan Erb Institute\; University of Michigan School for Environment and Sustainability(SEAS)\; University of Michigan Program in the Environment (PitE)\n\nFor more information visit www.closup.umich.edu or call 734-647-4091.  \n\nFollow on Twitter @closup

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CREES Noon Lecture. The Singing Turk: Ottoman Power and Operatic Emotions on the European Stage from the Siege of Vienna to the Age of Napoleon
DESCRIPTION:This lecture will consider the huge cultural phenomenon of operas about Turks that played out across the stages of Europe from the 1680s to the 1820s. Though the best-known of these operas\, Mozart's \"Abduction from the Seraglio\,\" is still widely performed\, most of these operas about Turks are unknown today. They include operas by such important composers as Handel\, Rameau\, Gluck\, Haydn\, Mozart\, and Rossini\, as well as many others. The lecture will try to understand this cultural phenomenon in the geopolitical context of European-Ottoman relations and the intellectual context of the Enlightenment\, will address the significance of such operas for Christian-Muslim relations in European history\, and will also consider why these operas featuring singing Turks disappeared from the repertory over the course of the 19th century. \n    \nLarry Wolff is the Julius Silver Professor of History\, director of the Center for European and Mediterranean Studies\, and executive director of the Remarque Institute at New York University. His research has focused on the relation between Eastern Europe and Western Europe\, especially pursuing the argument that Eastern Europe was \"invented\" in the 18th century by the philosophers and travelers of the Enlightenment. His latest book is \"The Singing Turk: Ottoman Power and Operatic Emotions on the European Stage from the Siege of Vienna to the Age of Napoleon\" (Stanford 2016). He is also the author of \"Paolina’s Innocence: Child Abuse in Casanova’s Venice\" (2012)\, \"The Idea of Galicia: History and Fantasy in Habsburg Political Culture\" (2010)\, \"Venice and the 
Slavs:The 
Discovery of Dalmatia in the Age of Enlightenment\" (2001)\, \"Inventing Eastern Europe: The 
Map of Civilization 
on the Mind of the Enlightenment\" (1994)\, \"The Vatican and Poland in the Age of the 
Partitions\" (1988)\, and \"Postcards from the End of the 
World: Child Abuse 
in Freud's Vienna\" (1988). He has received Fulbright\, American Council of Learned Societies\, and Guggenheim fellowships\, and he is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Brown Bag | Operator Dynamics in Quantum Chaos: Part I - Internal Degrees of Freedom
DESCRIPTION:We study operator growth in quantum chaos by considering the SYK model\, a toy model of holography containing only internal degrees of freedom which evolve via q-local interactions. First\, we note that the product length of an operator is directly related to its sensitivity to small perturbations. This reveals that in the SYK model\, the commutator-squared/out-of-time-ordered correlator - a new diagnostic of quantum chaos - is literally measuring the effective length of the operator. It is known that this quantity grows exponentially in time with a \"Lyapunov exponent\"\, and thus we conclude that lengths of operators grows exponentially in time (amongst the internal degrees of freedom). Motivated by this\, we group the operators into families defined by their lengths\, thereby explicitly solving for the coarse-grained dynamics of an operator in the large N\, large q limit. We also note that one can understand the time evolution of operators by relating it to the quantum mechanics of a particle on a graph with a nontrivial topology. Lastly\, we may make some comments on the bulk interpretation of operator growth in SYK.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Teach Out Series- Fake News\, Facts\, and Alternative Facts
DESCRIPTION:How can you distinguish credible information from “fake news”? Reliable information is at the heart of what makes an effective democracy\, yet many people find it harder to differentiate good journalism from propaganda. Increasingly\, inaccurate information is shared on Facebook and echoed by a growing number of explicitly partisan news outlets. This becomes more problematic because people have a tendency to accept agreeable messages over challenging claims\, even if the former are less objectively credible. In this teach-out\, we examine the processes that generate both accurate and inaccurate news stories\, and that lead people to believe those stories. We then provide a series of tools that ordinary citizens can use to tell fact from fiction.\n\nA Teach-Out is:\n\n-an event – it takes place over a fixed\, short period of time\n\n-an opportunity – it is open for free participation to everyone around the world\n\n-a community – it will be joined by a large number of diverse individuals\n\n-a conversation – an opportunity to give and take ideas and information from people\n\nThe University of Michigan Teach-Out Series provides just-in-time community learning events for participants around the world to come together in conversation with the U-M campus community\, including faculty experts. The U-M Teach-Out Series is part of our deep commitment to engage the public in exploring and understanding the problems\, events\, and phenomena most important to society.\n\nTeach-Outs are short learning experiences\, each focused on a specific current issue. Attendees will come together over a few days not only to learn about a subject or event but also to gain skills. Teach-Outs are open to the world and are designed to bring together individuals with wide-ranging perspectives in respectful and deep conversation. These events are an opportunity for diverse learners and a multitude of experts to come together to ask questions of one another and explore new solutions to the pressing concerns of our global community. Come\, join the conversation!\n\nFind new opportunities at teach-out.org.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Unfinished Conversation: Encoding/Decoding
DESCRIPTION:On view from September 8-October 14\, 2017 in the Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.\, Ann Arbor)\, The Unfinished Conversation: Encoding/Decoding is a group exhibition including image and video work by Terry Adkins\, John Akomfrah\, Shelagh Keeley\, and Zineb Sedira. There will be an exhibition reception on Friday\, September 8 from 6-8 pm. The exhibition and reception are free and open to the public.\n\nCo-curated by Gaëtane Verna\, Director of The Power Plant\, and Mark Sealy\, The Unfinished Conversation is grounded in the work of cultural theorist Stuart Hall (1932-2014)\, who devoted his life to studying the interweaving threads of culture\, power\, politics\, and history. \n\nTaking Hall’s essay Encoding and Decoding in the Television Discourse as a point of departure\, viewers will be invited to think about how meaning is constructed\; how it is systematically distorted by audience reception\; and how it can be detached and drained of its original intent to produce specific or slanted narratives. Hall’s interdisciplinary approach drew on literary theory\, linguistics\, and cultural anthropology in order to analyse and articulate the relationship between history\, culture\, popular media\, cold war politics\, gender\, and ethnicity.\n\nBy presenting the work of artists who bring into play time\, memory\, and archives so as to construct new readings of the past\, the exhibition will lay emphasis on the idea that the “visual” is an assimilatory process continuously at work in the construction of cultural\, political\, personal\, and national identities.\n\nCo-curators Gaëtane Verna and Mark Sealy state that it is their curatorial intention to build a multiple moving/still/audio archive\, an image map\, a visual vehicle that will ferry the audience across the choppy waters of memory\, images\, and politics to an undeterminable\, obscure\, and un-chartable destination\, where people often meet with a fatal end. The exhibition aims to take viewers on a journey in time\, to bring them to encounter images\, which act as both objects of art and ideas in flux\, circulating in and out of the archive through the corridors of cultural re-construction.\n\nThis image map will be drawn by the work of Terry Adkins\, John Akomfrah\, Shelagh Keeley and Zineb Sedira\, four artists whose practice is devoted primarily to commenting on recent socio-political events and situations and relating them to the not so distant past in order to help us understand the world we live in.\n\nBy stimulating our personal and collective memory\, these works will show us how history agitates and causes anxiety in our personal lives and in the political realm as they will reveal the fact that national identity is not an essence or a state of being\, but a “becoming\,” a process whereby subjectivities are formed in the interstices between such binary oppositions as us/them\, black/white\, or native/foreigner\, and that it is in those in-between spaces that marginalized people are the agents and subjects of many possible futures\, imagined or real.\n\nThe thread that connects all these art works is the artist’s involvement with the significant social issues confronting humanity today and their profound desire to push formal boundaries in order to tackle them.\n\nThe Unfinished Conversation: Encoding/Decoding is organized and circulated by The Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery\, Toronto in partnership with Autograph ABP\, London. The exhibition is co-curated by Gaëtane Verna\, Director\, The Power Plant and Mark Sealy\, Director\, Autograph ABP.\n\nPhoto by Toni Hafkenscheid.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Vital Signs for a New America
DESCRIPTION:On view from September 8-October 14\, 2017 in the Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.\, Ann Arbor)\, Vital Signs for a New America is a group exhibition including work by Dylan Miner\, Sheryl Oring\, and the performance collective The Hinterlands. There will be an exhibition reception on Friday\, September 8 from 6-8 pm. The exhibition and reception are free and open to the public.\n\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra\, Vital Signs for a New America uses a range of meaningful and compelling of community-engaged approaches to invite the public to join Miner\, Oring\, and The Hinterlands in speaking out and sharing stories\; listening and re-learning\; and remembering the past to imagine new possibilities for the future.\n\nActive public engagement is at the heart of Vital Signs for a New America. Each work on view in this group exhibition offers opportunities to interact directly with the artists and their art. As part of the exhibition programming\, the gallery will become a common space for storytelling and tea drinking with Dylan Miner\; a bustling executive assistant’s office with Sheryl Oring\; and a tactile\, expansive personal archive with the performance collective The Hinterlands. Vital Signs invites the public to speak out\, listen\, and imagine new models for inclusive futures.\n\nDylan Miner: Elders Say We Don’t Visit Anymore\nSaturdays\, September 9-October 14\, 1-3 pm\n\nDylan Miner\, Director of American Indian and Indigenous Studies at Michigan State University\, is an artist\, activist\, and scholar. Miner identifies as a Wiisaakodewinini (Métis)\, the Ojibwe designation for a Native male of mixed ancestry. While conducting an oral history project with retired Anishinaabe autoworkers\, elders shared the idea that “we don’t visit as much as we used to” due to the limitations of urbanizations\, wage labor\, and settler colonialism to name a few. In response\, Miner was inspired to explore the methodology of visiting with an art gallery or museum context. Elders Say We Don’t Visit Anymore is a creative action where the public is invited to share tea and conversation with the artist\, creating new friendships and maintaining social relationships within a specific time and place.\n\nSheryl Oring: I Wish to Say \nFriday\, September 8\, 5-6.30 pm and 7-8 pm (two engagements)\nFridays\, September 15-October 13\, 5-7 pm\n\nNationally renowned artist Sheryl Oring’s belief in the value of free expression guaranteed by the American constitution propelled her to initiate I Wish to Say (2004-ongoing)\, a public platform that invites people to voice their concerns about the state-of-affairs in the country to the President of America. For this project\, Oring sets up a portable public office — complete with a manual typewriter — and invites viewers to dictate postcards to the President of the United States\, prompting with a simple phrase: “Do you have a message for the president?” Over the last decade\, Oring has toured this project across the country and more than 3\,000 postcards have been mailed to the White House. Taking place for the first time in Michigan\, Oring will be working with students and volunteers at the Stamps Gallery and in the city of Ann Arbor to spark dialogues not just among artists and academics but also among the diverse public of Ann Arbor on their notes to the President.\n\nThe Hinterlands: The Radicalization Process Papers \nTuesday\, October 3\, 6-7.30pm: History is a Living Weapon (performance)\n\nThe Hinterlands delve into the past to remember and re-learn the cultural memories and collective histories of Detroit and Ann Arbor. A collection of boxes is discovered in the basement of a house on the border of Detroit and Hamtramck. In them\, a rich personal archive of publication clippings\, which appear to chronicle radical U.S. histories of the 60s and 70s. Using the archive as a performative platform\, the artists invite audiences to engage with the materials contained in the boxes that blur the boundaries between fact and fiction\, real and imagined. The ephemera and memorabilia in the The Radicalization Process Papers takes audiences on a journey that navigates layers of historical accounts\, art\, politics\, and cultural artifacts and asks audiences to examine the assumptions of freedom and democracy in popular American culture. Created and compiled by The Hinterlands in collaboration with historian and poet Casey Rocheteau and designer Ben Gaydos.

DESCRIPTION:This study group will read and discuss Yuval Noah Harari’s New York Times bestseller\, Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind. Sapiens describes human history starting from the Big Bang to the present. The history is divided into the Cognitive Revolution\, the Agricultural Revolution\, the Unification of Humankind\, and the Scientific Revolution. \n\nHarari boldly relates the total scientific evidence\, including alternative possibilities. Sapiens integrates history and science to challenge everything we thought we knew about being human: our thoughts\, our actions\, our heritage . . . and our future. \n\nPlease read Part One for the first class. \n\nInstructor Marlin Ristenbatt\, a retired engineer and science enthusiast\, will lead this study group for those 50 and above for two hours each Tuesday from October 4 through November 5.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Genetics Training Program Annual Retreat
DESCRIPTION:We are excited to welcome Anthony Wynshaw-Boris\, M.D.\, Ph.D. from the Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine as our keynote speaker at this year's annual retreat.  Dr. Wynshaw Boris is a world expert on the study of neurogenetic disease.  His talk is entitled “Modeling Human Neurogenetic Diseases in Mice and Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells.\"\n\nDr. Wynshaw-Boris received his MD and PhD degrees from Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine in Cleveland\, OH. Under the direction of Dr. Richard Hanson\, his thesis research elucidated the mechanism of transcriptional regulation of the key enzyme in gluconeogenesis\, PEPCK. Following a residency in Pediatrics at Cleveland’s Rainbow Babies and Children's Hospital\, he obtained a medical genetics fellowship at Boston Children's Hospital and postdoctoral training in mouse models of developmental disorders at Harvard Medical School under the direction of Dr. Philip Leder. As an independent investigator Dr. Wynshaw-Boris has held positions at the National Human Genome Research Institute\, University of California San Diego\, and University of California San Francisco\, before returning to Case to become the Chair of the Department of Genetics and Genome Sciences in 2013.\n\nHis research is focused on understanding genetic and biochemical pathways important for the development and function of the mammalian central nervous system. He uses genetically engineered mice and human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) to define pathways disrupted in neurologic diseases. He has made important contributions to understanding the genetics and pathophysiology of autism\, brain overgrowth and microcephaly\, and neurodegeneration caused by mutations in DNA repair and checkpoint genes. He has served as Executive Editor of the journal Human Molecular Genetics since 2005\, and together with Charles Epstein and Robert Erickson\, he co-authored a comprehensive book “Inborn Errors of Development” which is now in its third edition.\n\nThe program will begin at 2:00 with 20-minute talks by three senior Genetics Training Program trainees (Irene Park\, Marcella Nidiffer\, and John McCrone).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AE Department Seminar: Human Interaction in Aviation and Education
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Aaron Johnson\nLecturer\, Aerospace Engineering Department\nResearch Fellow\, Engineering Education Research (EECS Department)\nUniversity of Michigan\n\nAbstract: In this talk\, I will discuss and draw comparisons between my research into human interaction in the distinct—but relatable—fields of aerospace engineering and engineering education. Highly-automated modern aerospace systems employ flight deck automation to increase the efficiency and safety of systems while reducing operator workload. However\, there is little knowledge about how operators react to control mode transitions in which they take over control from the automation\, particularly the reversion from autopilot to manual control that can occur during safety-critical situations. In the first half of my talk I will present experimental results that show how an operator’s visual attention\, performance\, and cognitive state change when transitioning between autopilot and flight control modes. In the second half of my talk I will discuss how concepts from human-automation interaction can be applied to the study of interactions between engineering students and their instructors. I will present preliminary results from research conducted here at Michigan investigating how flexible classroom spaces\, which have movable tables and chairs that can be rearranged into different layouts\, support better student-student and student-instructor interaction. I will conclude my talk by outlining a vision for future research that leads to evidence-based improvements in undergraduate aerospace engineering education.\n\nAbout the speaker...\nAaron Johnson is a lecturer in the Aerospace Engineering Department and a research fellow in Engineering Education Research at the University of Michigan. He is interested in how students “make sense” of the different elements within their engineering education as they develop into practicing engineers. He is the (unofficial) Co-I of an NSF project currently studying the influence of flexible classroom spaces on teaching and learning. Aaron received his PhD in Humans in Aerospace from MIT in 2015\, where he was a Draper Laboratory Fellow. His PhD research used quantitative analysis of human-in-the-loop experiments and mathematical modeling to investigate changes in an operator’s performance and cognitive state when transitioning between autopilot and manual flight control modes. Aaron’s dissertation was awarded the 2016 Stanley Roscoe Award for Best Doctoral Dissertation from the Aerospace Human Factors Association. Aaron also holds a BSE from the University of Michigan and an MS from MIT\, both in aerospace engineering. Before returning to Michigan in July 2016\, he was a postdoctoral research associate at the Tufts University Center for Engineering Education and Outreach.

The lecture will be in Spanish with simultaneous English translation\, and followed by a reception.\n\nAn artist of the book for more than thirty years\, and now the first licensed independent bookmaker in Cuba\, Estévez is finding exciting ways for words and images to speak to each other\, creating books at once delicate and sturdy\, ambitious and humble\, books that breathe\, carry earth\, sand\, seashells\, and twigs\, and are full of life.\n\nU-M Library holds a major collection of his books\, which offer a window onto Cuban cultural and artistic life over the past three decades. View a selection of these holdings in the online exhibit Intersections: Cultures\, Identities\, Narratives.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Interdisciplinary Seminar in Quantitative Methods (ISQM): Identification and Estimation of Spillover Effects in Randomized Experiments
DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT:\nI provide a non-parametric potential-outcomes framework to study causal spillover effects in a setting where units are clustered and their potential outcomes can depend on the treatment assignment of all the units within a cluster. Using this framework\, I discuss parameters of interest and provide conditions under which spillover effects can be identified in a randomized experiment. In addition\, I characterize and discuss the causal interpretation of the estimands that are recovered by three specifications that are widely popular in empirical work: a regression of an outcome on a treatment indicator (difference in means)\, a regression of an outcome on a treatment indicator and the proportion of treated neighbors (a reduced-form linear-in-means model) and a regression exploiting variability in treatment assignment probabilities in two-stage designs. Finally\, I provide conditions for uniform consistency and asymptotic Normality of direct and spillover effects estimators with special focus on the effect of potential outcome modeling assumptions and treatment assignment mechanism on inference. I illustrate my findings with data from a randomized conditional cash transfer pilot in Colombia and with a simulation study.\n\nBIO:\nGonzalo Vazquez-Bare is a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Economics at the University of Michigan\, where he is also completing the M.A. in Statistics. He works on econometrics and methodology\, with focus on program evaluation and causal inference in experimental and non-experimental settings. He has worked with Matias Cattaneo and I in several papers on regression discontinuity designs\, and has an exciting research agenda on estimation and inference of treatment effects in the presence of externalities and interference between units.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IOE 899 Seminar: Molly Moore Jeffery\, Mayo Clinic
DESCRIPTION:Title: Digging into the opioid crisis: using administrative data to gain new insights into the opioid epidemic\n\nOpioid use has been declared public health emergency\, with legally prescribed drugs contributing to substantial morbidity and mortality from addiction and overdoses. We use administrative data from claims to study the past 10 years of the prescription opioid epidemic. \n\nWe find opioid use remains common\, with only modest reductions in prevalence of use from the peak of the epidemic in 2010-2011. Chronic users of opioids consume the majority of all opioids and often take very high doses (more than 100 mg morphine equivalents per day)\, placing them at high risk for adverse outcomes. To understand the risk of of non-users becoming chronic users\, we follow people who were opioid naïve filling their first opioid prescription in the Emergency Department (ED) and in other care settings. Prescriptions written in the ED are more likely to follow best practices for dose and duration of use\, and are associated with a lower risk of chronic opioid use than prescriptions written in other settings.\n\nFinally\, we explore an apparent anomaly in the data—a sudden\, steep decrease in average opioid doses that was caused by the removal of propoxyphene from the market. Despite decades of concern about its safety\, propoxyphene was one of the most popular prescription drugs until it was pulled in late 2010. We describe treatment courses for people using propoxyphene at the time it was discontinued in 2010\, finding large reductions in their opioid use as they were switched to alternative opioids at lower\, safer doses.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Macroeconomics: Product Revenue and Price Adjustment: Evidence and Aggregate Implications
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nWe find that the probability of price adjustment of a product increases with its revenue. The absolute size of price adjustment decreases. We show that these facts are consistent with menu cost models where the fixed cost of adjustment does not scale with product revenue. This dependence introduces a revenue effect where the price of products with higher revenue are more likely to change and are more responsive to monetary shocks. We also document that the mean and variance of the cross-sectional log revenue distribution decreases with unemployment. Together with our earlier findings\, this implies that the real effect of monetary policy is stronger in recessions than expansions. Using a quantitative menu cost model we show that output is more responsive to monetary shocks in low output states than in high output states. Lastly\, we provide empirical evidence of state-dependence in monetary policy transmission.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Primary Health Care Supply Chain Challenges and Opportunities
DESCRIPTION:The WDI Global Impact Speaker Series kicks off for the academic year by exploring the role that good supply chains play in ensuring health products reach their intended recipients in Africa and India\, how technology is making a difference and why having a motivated and dedicated staff is critical. The Oct. 4 talk featuring David Sarley\, senior program officer at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation\, also will highlight how graduating students can make a difference in global public health.\n\nSarley’s talk\, “Primary Health Care Supply Chain Challenges and Opportunities\,” will be held at 5 p.m. in Room R2220 at the Ross School of Business. It is free and open to the public.\n\nThe WDI Global Impact Speaker Series features thought leaders and practitioners who do innovative work in low- and middle-income countries. They share their experience\, provoke thought\, and stimulate discussion around the opportunities and challenges of international development.\n\nOver the last five years at the Gates Foundation\, Sarley has created and managed investments across multiple delivery teams tasked with strengthening supply chains\, and recently joined the Innovation and Strategy team in Vaccine Delivery.  \n\n“David has a deep understanding of the needs\, opportunities and challenges that many countries face ensuring that their citizens have access to a reliable supply of lifesaving health commodities\,” said Michael Krautmann\, senior research associate with WDI’s Healthcare Initiative\, who has worked with Sarley on Gates-funded projects. “Through his work at the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation\, David is at the forefront of technological and organizational solutions to these challenges\, and his talk will be insightful for students\, faculty and all those who are interested in improving global access to medicines.”\n\nWDI has collaborated with the Gates Foundation on several projects\, and Sarley served as program officer on a large healthcare project\, “Developing a Common Vision of Effective and Efficient Global Health Supply Chains\,” that had a number of sub-components.\n\nOne element of the large project was creating executive communications materials to increase global donors’ investment in supply chain\, and convey key supply chain challenges and opportunities in global health. Another part of the project resulted in a WDI report\, “Designing Global Health Supply Chains for the Future\,” that proposed a series of initiatives that governments\, global development agencies\, and those in the private sector should undertake immediately in order to build supply chain capacity to anticipate these increasing demands in the coming decades.\n\nWDI’s engagement with Gates also studied facilitating data-driven supply chain policy decisions by developing a model that incorporates performance tradeoffs and stakeholder priorities into formal cost effectiveness analysis. And\, designing and initializing a supply chain resource center in West Africa that provides direct strategy support to governments to help transform their healthcare.\n\nSarley has nearly 35 years experience in investment and development in emerging markets. He has worked for 15 years in public health supply chain management\, including 10 years with USAID grantee John Snow Inc. (JSI) and five at the Gates Foundation. Prior to JSI\, he worked in economics consultancy for 16 years in trade\, transport\, finance and health economics.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Film screening: For the Love of a Man
DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with the UMSI Bicentennial Symposium on Friday\, October 6\, UMSI presents a special screening of a documentary film produced and self-funded by UMSI assistant professor Joyojeet Pal. \n\n\"For the Love of a Man follows\" fans of 'superstar' Rajnikanth\, whose fandom often becomes integral to their identities and those of people around them. The visual ethic of fandom and star mimicry reveal a form of star worship that is unique to Indian cinema culture. The lives of fans and their families open us to themes of brotherhood\, aspiration\, political affiliation\, or even just means of being noticed. From bankruptcies to reformations from lives of crime\, the lives of the fans offer stories that range from the heroic to the horrific\, all in a day's work of turning a film star into a deity.\n\nFor the Love of a Man premiered at the Venice Film Festival in September 2015\, and was shown at the Mumbai and Dubai Film Festivals of 2015.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:ASP Film Screening | 3 Weeks in Yerevan
DESCRIPTION:In this heartwarming comedy\, two filmmakers (Armen and Raffi)\, from Los Angeles\, go to Armenia to shoot a feature length movie about a third generation American Armenian who goes to Yerevan to adopt a 12-year old child. Teaming up with a local impresario (Rubo)\, the crew begins the arduous task of casting for the parts\, scouting locations and securing the last leg of the funding. What seems to be a perfect plan becomes a perfect storm of absurd meetings\, unexpected discoveries and hysterical events\, which come together to sabotage the project. \n\nThe Minister of Culture\, the chief of police\, the director of Hyefilm Studios\, the oligarch…They all offer to help\, and yet all of them have their conditions – changing the plot of the script\, adopting it to another period\, casting a relative for a part\, and ultimately a proposal to turn the simple\, touching story into a biopic of an oligarch. \n\nThe chemistry between Rubo\, Armen\, and Raffi creates an amazing hilarity\, and their journey to realize their dream brings them face to face with some colorful characters\, fantastic situations\, and beautiful backdrops.
