SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach Out Series: Sleep Deprivation: Habits\, Solutions\, and Strategies
DESCRIPTION:Sleep deprivation is a silent epidemic. Since the invention of the light bulb\, we have obtained less sleep than our ancestors\, prioritizing work\, school\, socializing\, sports\, screen time – just about everything – over sleep. Sleep is viewed as compressible\, something that can be made up at any time\, but rarely is. Most believe this poses little risk. Unfortunately\, they could not be more wrong.\n\nThe truth is\, an adequate amount of good-quality sleep is critical to good health. Lack of sleep leads to deadly crashes\, reduces productivity\, and harms quality of life. Insufficient or disordered sleep can increase risk for ADHD\, depression\, heart attack\, stroke\, arrhythmia\, heart failure\, and early death.\n\nThis Teach-Out can be your first step in doing something about sleep deprivation. Learn how sleep works\, why it is important\, and what bad sleep habits are. Hear solutions you can start tonight to sleep better for the rest of your life. Understand strategies to help family and friends improve their sleep. Learn to advocate for the sleep health of your community. This Teach-Out is intended to connect learners worldwide to the University of Michigan in conversation around sleep deprivation.\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.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach- Out Series: Free Speech in Journalism
DESCRIPTION:A free press is essential for a healthy\, vibrant\, democratic society. Yet public trust in journalism has hit historic lows in recent years and journalists have recently been openly maligned for their work. This Teach-Out prompts participants to think critically about the roles and responsibilities of journalists in a free society. Why is the concept of a free press written into the First Amendment? How are the rights of journalists threatened? Is this a unique moment in history? How have new modes of reporting\, such as social media and citizen journalism\, made the press more vulnerable? And\, finally\, what are the broader societal implications of a restricted and diminished press?\n\nThis Teach-Out is part of the University of Michigan 2018 Speech and Inclusion Series that aims to recognize differing views on speech and inclusion\, to explore how those views play out in politics\, culture\, higher education\, sports\, and journalism\, and to engage in productive conversations to promote a positive campus environment and help the community more deeply understand these complicated issues.\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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Window Installation | 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 uses 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Border Crossers
DESCRIPTION:Students across campus—from LSA\, Engineering\, Art and Design\, and Information—will work with visiting artist Chico MacMurtrie during winter semester 2018 planning\, building\, and launching a 40-foot robotic sculpture that poetically explores the notion of borders and boundary conditions. The project\, led by the Institute for the Humanities\, symbolizes the humanities in action\, and the empowerment that can be achieved through working together\, overcoming obstacles and divides\, and discovering creative solutions.\n\nMacmurtrie is an award winning artist\, renowned internationally for his large-scale robotic sculpture\, whose work combines materiality and robotics\, the visceral and conceptual. His artist residency and interdisciplinary project \"Border Crossers\" encourages investigation of borders as constructed entities\, both embodying a simple curiosity to see what lies on the other side of a border (national\, architectural\, environmental\, etc.) and expression of a utopian desire to live in a world without borders.\n\nIn February\, MacMurtrie and the students will launch the robotic sculpture during two \"performances\" and MacMurtrie will give a special Penny W. Stamps Lecture. The gallery exhibition will include large-scale drawings which serve as plans and maps for MacMurtrie's visionary Border Crossers. Life-size robotic models will also be presented in the exhibition in conversation with the drawings. The models\, built by the all-student team with MacMurtrie's guidance\, are prototypes for the project\, offering preliminary steps in the workshop and the process towards realizing the large scale robotic sculpture.\n\nChico MacMurtrie is the Artistic Director of Amorphic Robot Works\, an interdisciplinary creative collective located in Brooklyn\, NY.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:EXHIBITION ON VIEW: DRAWING CODES: EXPERIMENTAL PROTOCOLS OF ARCHITECTURAL REPRESENTATION
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition on-view March 7 - 28\n\nEmerging technologies of design and production have opened up new ways to engage with traditional practices of architectural drawing. The twenty-four experimental drawings commissioned for this exhibition explore the impact of such technologies on the relationship between code and drawing: how rules and constraints inform the ways architects document\, analyze\, represent\, and design the built environment.\n\nEach drawing engages with at least one of the below prompts that begin to expand the notion of code as it relates to architectural design and representation:\n\nCode as generative constraint. Restrictive codes often govern what is permitted and what is prohibited. Examples of this include building codes\, urban codes\, zoning codes\, accessibility codes\, and energy codes. How can such constraints become generative\, opening up opportunities for design and representation?\nCode as language. A code can be understood as a set of rules\, conventions\, and traditions of syntax and grammar that structure the communication of information. The discipline of architecture similarly has its own language of typologies\, taxonomies\, and classifications. How can drawing engage with such architectural languages?\nCode as cipher. Encoded or encrypted messages are intended to hide or conceal information. Likewise\, architectural geometries\, forms\, spaces\, and assemblies are embedded with invisible organizational\, social\, political\, or economic logics that may not be immediately evident. How can drawing engage with these latent meanings and messages?\nCode as script. A code can be understood as a script or a recipe: a set of instructions to be executed or performed by a computer\, a robot\, or (in the case of theater or film)\, an actor. Scripts often produce unexpected discrepancies between the intent of the code and how it is executed. How can drawing explore these open-ended processes that may not have a defined outcome?\nThe invited architects were asked to conform to a set of strict rules: consistent dimension\, black & white medium\, and limiting the drawing to orthographic projection. The intent is for this consistency to emphasize the wide range of approaches to questions of technology\, design\, and representation. Yet within this considerable diversity of medium\, aesthetic sensibility\, and content\, several common qualities emerge. First is the unsure link between code and outcome: glitches\, bugs\, accidents\, anomalies\, but also loopholes\, deviations\, variances\, and departures that open up new potentials for architectural design and representation. Second is a mature embrace of technology not as a fetishized end game\, but as an instrument employed synthetically in concert with other architectural “tools of the trade.” And finally\, these drawings demonstrate how conventions of architectural representation remain fertile territory for invention and speculation.\n\nAt the show's initial run at CCA in San Francisco\, an adjacent gallery featured work by CCA Architecture students in Kinematic Code\, a course taught by Clayton Muhleman that has been exploring procedural and robotic drawing techniques.\n\nPanel discussion Tuesday\, March 6 at 6:00pm in the Art & Architecture Auditorium\, followed by opening reception in the College Gallery. Exhibition on view March 7 - March 28.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Interior Streets
DESCRIPTION:Join us March 9\, 3pm\, for a reception and Carl Wilson in conversation with our curator Amanda Krugliak.\n\nThe \"Interior Streets\" exhibition features the work of Detroit artist Carl Wilson\, known for his stark black and white linocut prints. The self-taught artist sees himself as a documentarian of lives easily ignored in a world obsessed with materialism and celebrity. His work frequently highlights not only the strength found in conquering the everyday and mundane\, but also the pain and defeat of those not able to rise to the occasion. His love of film noir and pulp fiction novels from the 1940s and '50s has led him to experiment with minimalist animation and comic book illustration. He embraces the whimsy hidden in the darkness.\n\nCarl is the recipient of a 2013 Kresge Artist Fellowship and is an alumni of the historic Yaddo Artists’ Community. During his residency there he carved the prints for\, and wrote the book\, Her Purse Smelled like Juicyfruit\, a recollection of his mother’s life. Carl was named 2014 guest curator of Detroit’s Carr Center. Also in 2014 Complex Online Magazine named him one of Twenty Detroit Artists You Should Know. He was featured in Essay'd\, a monthly publication about Detroit artists. 2017 sees the release of a comic book\, the first installment of his graphic novel\, Dead and Lost in Detroit.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:ASP Workshop | Armenian Music\, Memorial Practices and the Global in the 21st Century
DESCRIPTION:From lullabies transmitting genocide memories and post genocide experience in Turkey (Bilal 2013\; 2006) to anamnesis\, a form of liturgical remembrance of God’s role in human life (Findikyan 2008)\, and an act of survival in exile (Kerovpyan\, 2015)\, music is constitutive to the Armenian experience worldwide. Both the shared affective participation in the resonance of melodies and rhythms and the tales and stories conveyed in sung musical texts help to create a bond of common experience and sense of belonging within and across Armenian populations spread throughout the globe. \n    \nThis workshop situates various genres of Armenian music—liturgical\, lullaby\, folk\, pop\, and contemporary—as a site from which to explore central questions for the Armenian experiences in the 21st Century. What ties together diverse Diaspora populations\, Anatolia\, and the Republic of Armenia? How is a shared Armenian experience conveyed and transmitted? Which institutions and practices sustain the Armenian community? How does music resonate with individuals while simultaneously creating both communal bonds\, tensions\, and distinctions? In what ways does music tie the past to the present and even help imagine a future? How do we contextualize the ‘traditional’ and the ‘experimental’ in contemporary Armenian music production?\n\nThe workshop will be followed by the screening of the film -  \"Singing in Exile\" (Directed by Turi Finocchiaro and Nathalie Rossetti\; 2015) at 6:30 PM\nSpace 2435\, North Quad\, 105 S State Street\, Ann Arbor\, MI 48109.\n\nSaturday\, Mar 17\, 4 PM\nEvening Service and Musical Concert.\nSt. John Armenian Church\, 22001 Northwestern Hwy # 1\, Southfield\, MI 48075.\n\nParticipants:\nHakem Al-Rustom\, University of Michigan\nRoxana-Maria Aras\, University of Michigan\nMeilu Ho\, University of Michigan  \nAram Kerovpyan\, Centre for Armenian Modal Chant Studies of Paris\nAlyssa Mathias\, University of California\, Los Angeles\nJonathon McCollum\, Washington College\nChristopher Sheklian\, University of Michigan\n\nCaption: Paper · 416 ff. · 13.1 x 10 cm · Awendants\, Khizan in the Province Van · 1647. \nCredit: Utopia\, armarium codicum bibliophilorum\, Cod. 4: Armenian Hymnarium (Sharaknots) (http://www.e-codices.unifr.ch/en/list/one/utp/0004)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Resonances of Walter Benjamin in Latin American Thought
DESCRIPTION:This event concerns the relations between the work of Walter Benjamin and critical thought in Latin America. Since the 1970s Benjamin’s work has been extremely influential for Southern Cone artists and intellectuals in particular\, and this influence took on unique characteristics during the dictatorships of the late 20 th century and the concomitant rise of neoliberalism\, when Benjamin’s idiosyncratic mix of Marxism and cultural criticism resonated with efforts to respond to the multifarious manifestations of power and ideology in the region. Willy Thayer\, Elizabeth Collingwood-Selby\, and Federico Galende (currently in residence in RLL as a visiting professor in Wi 18)\, are some of the central figures of contemporary Chilean critical thought\, and they have all been strongly influenced by Benjamin. This colloquium is an occasion to consider the intersections of Benjamin’s work and critical thought in Latin America\, including the ways in which the historical\, political\, and cultural registers that confronted Benjamin resemble or differ from those confronting contemporary Latin America.\n\nProfessors Thayer\, Collingwood-Selby and Galende will deliver papers\, followed by a discussion. This event is free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection
DESCRIPTION:Gallery hours are 11 a.m.–5 p.m. Tuesday–Saturday and 12–5 p.m. Sunday\; galleries are closed on Mondays.\n\nThis exhibition celebrates Gertrude Kasle (1917–2016)\, a key figure in the formation of Detroit’s contemporary art community in the 1960s and 70s. A pioneering female gallerist\, Kasle provided midwest audiences with a venue in which to experience avant-garde art from centers like New York City\, while also supporting and exhibiting regional artists. Featuring a collection of paintings\, works on paper\, and sculptures from the height of the Abstract Expressionist movement through the early twenty-first century\, 'Exercising the Eye' speaks to the relationships Kasle fostered with local\, national\, and international artists and her appreciation for artistic expression and experimentation. Critical voices from the last fifty years include Philip Guston\, Jane Hammond\, Grace Hartigan\, Jasper Johns\, Michele Oka Doner\, and Robert Rauschenberg. The exhibition offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore a dynamic moment in Detroit’s cultural history and insight into Kasle’s love of looking and learning.\n\nLead support for 'Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Paul Rand
DESCRIPTION:Throughout the second half of the twentieth century\, pioneering art director and graphic designer Paul Rand (1914–1996) was celebrated for crafting the brand identities of such American corporate icons as ABC\, IBM\, UPS\, and Westinghouse. Rand considered the designer’s task to be the symbolic communication of a company’s character. This recent acquisition presentation features the poster Rand created as part of IBM’s THINK promotional campaign. The design is a rebus\, or visual puzzle\, wherein Rand cleverly transforms the letters of IBM’s logo into pictures. The whimsical use of symbols encourages viewers to interpret—or think—in order to comprehend the company’s intended message that it values “insight\,” “industriousness\,” and “motivation.” The poster is part of a larger recent gift of archival Paul Rand objects donated to UMMA by Franc Nunoo-Quarcoo—professor in the U-M Stamps School of Art and Design and published scholar on Paul Rand—and Maria Phillips.\n\nThis work was recently gifted to UMMA by Maria Phillips and Franc Nunoo-Quarcoo.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Patricia Piccinini: The Comforter
DESCRIPTION:Australian artist Patricia Piccinini’s strange\, hyperreal yet sentimental sculptures are often rooted in her speculative visualizations of future species—beings transformed by\, or even created by\, developments in genetic engineering and technology.  On view at UMMA\, \"The Comforter\" presents the likeness of a young girl whose appearance suggests a rare genetic condition causing excessive hair across her face and body. In her lap she tenderly cradles an udder-shaped\, eyeless creature—a possible reference to current experiments in genetically altered milk-producing animals. The encounter staged by the sculpture\, though curious and unexplained\, appears to be one of innocence and intimacy\, and suggests the potential for emotional connection between a diversity of beings. This theme is a common one for Piccinini\, whose work incorporates (often obliquely) ideas and questions about the ethical implications of scientific progress and the conflicts in our culture between the natural and the man-made.\n\nLead support for \"Patricia Piccinini: The Comforter\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece
DESCRIPTION:Since the 1980s\, British artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster have been known for their shadow sculptures built from materials as diverse as scrap metal\, garbage\, taxidermy\, and sex toys. When light is directed at these assemblages\, they project shadows that are exceptionally accurate and intricate representations of other things entirely.\n\n\"The Masterpiece\" (2014) is a shadow self-portrait of the artists created from metal casts of dead vermin they collected and welded together into a ball. From afar the casts appear to be a stunning abstract silver sculpture\; on closer inspection the disturbing menagerie of creatures emerges\, only to change form again—as a shadow on the wall—into a precise and elegant image that is astonishingly different from the objects that create it.\n\nLead support for \"Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece\" is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities. Additional generous support is provided by the Richard and Janet Miller Fund.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Transitioning Advanced Ceramic Electrolyte into Manufacturable Solid-State Batteries
DESCRIPTION:The transportation sector is the largest user of energy\, primarily relying on the combustion of fossil fuels. Electrifying transportation\, powered by renewable energy sources\, will have a substantial impact on reducing carbon emissions. While conventional Li-ion battery technology is enabling the infusion of some electric vehicles (EVs) into the market\, their performance\, cost\, and safety are not likely to achieve targets necessary to allow for supplantation of the internal combustion engine.  Significant breakthroughs in energy storage technology are necessary to achieve the Grand Challenge to produce and store clean energy to combat climate change.  Improvement in battery performance will also benefit other industries that use batteries such as biomedicine and microelectronics.   Clearly\, there is great need unmet for better batteries.  \n\nWhile recent efforts focus on improving electrode performance in conventional liquid-based chemistries\, an alternative approach is to increase performance and safety by developing solid electrolyte technology to enable all solid-state batteries (SSB).  Currently\, however\, widespread adoption of SSB is impeded by the lack of manufacturing competence.  Opportunities to meet this manufacturing need along with a review of current manufacturing approaches of state-of-the-art Li-ion batteries will be discussed.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Seminar Series: Ambuj Tewari\, Professor of Statistics\, University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: The origins of the field of machine learning can be traced back to a remarkable section titled “Learning Machines” in Turing’s famous “Computing Machinery and Intelligence” paper. The paper\, one of Turing’s two great papers\, was published in 1950 in the philosophy journal Mind. In the past 70 years\, the field has grown enormously. Technological progress has given us object recognition\, speech recognition\, and machine translation systems that we now take for granted. There has also been tremendous progress in understanding learning machines from the statistical\, computational and mathematical viewpoints. Yet\, what Turing wrote at the end of his 1950 paper remains true as ever: “We can only see a short distance ahead\, but we can see plenty there that needs to be done.”\n\nIn this talk\, I will provide brief non-technical descriptions of a few projects\, both applied and theoretical\, that my research group is working on. I also hope to convey the message that machine learning\, like any technology\, is amoral. Whether it is put to good or bad uses in society is up to us. If learning algorithms control access to credit\, healthcare\, education\, and employment\, it becomes an ethical obligation to examine issues related to fairness\, accountability and transparency in machine learning.\n\nSpeaker Bio:\n\nAmbuj Tewari is an associate professor in the Department of Statistics and the Department of EECS (by courtesy) at the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor. His is also affiliated with the Michigan Institute for Data Science (MIDAS). He obtained his PhD under the supervision of Peter Bartlett at the University of California at Berkeley. His research interests lie in machine learning including statistical learning theory\, online learning\, reinforcement learning and control theory\, network analysis\, and optimization for machine learning. He collaborates with scientists to seek novel applications of machine learning in mobile health\, learning analytics\, and computational chemistry. His research has been recognized with paper awards at COLT 2005\, COLT 2011\, and AISTATS 2015. He received an NSF CAREER award in 2015 and a Sloan Research Fellowship in 2017.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Foundational Course Initiative (FCI) Seminar Series - Beyond Multiple Choice: Using Open-Ended Questions and Student Behavior Data to Promote Engagement and Understand Learning
DESCRIPTION:Large lecture courses often suffer from low participation. Many students are uncomfortable asking questions verbally during class. Using personal response systems\, e.g.\, i>clicker\, to ask multiple-choice (MC) questions is one technique often used to increase engagement in such courses. However\, using MC questions for formative assessment does not reveal the students’ reasoning. In this seminar\, we will discuss how allowing anonymous\, digital questions increases participation dramatically and how including justification along with a MC answer can uncover misconceptions. In the second half of the session\, we will engage in discussion about available student data for your courses and other data you’d like to be able to collect. Then\, we’ll consider what you might do with the data and how we can expand the community of instructors who are using student behavior data to inform their teaching.\n\nLearning Objectives\n1. Participants will learn what measures of student behaviors in class are available.\n2. Participants will learn what measures of student background are available and what IRB approvals are needed.\n3. Participants will learn how these data can inform instructors and create opportunities for personalized feedback.\n\nRescheduled from February 9\, 2018.\nLunch provided

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AE Defense: Optimal Output Modification and Robust Control using Minimum Gain and the Large Gain Theorem
DESCRIPTION:Ryan Caverly\nDoctor of philosophy\nAerospace Engineering\n\nThe input-output properties of a system to be controlled play an important role in determining control strategies that can or should be applied\, as well as the achievable closed-loop performance.  Optimal output modification is a process in which the system output is modified in such a manner that the modified system has a desired input-output property and the modified output is as similar as possible to a specified desired output.  The first part of this dissertation develops linear matrix inequality (LMI)-based optimal output modification techniques to render a system minimum phase using parallel feedforward control or strictly positive real by linearly combining sensor measurements.\n\nAll mathematical models of physical systems are uncertain.  Robust control can provide a guarantee of closed-loop stability and/or performance of a system subject to uncertainty\, and is often performed using the well-known Small Gain Theorem.  The second part of this dissertation introduces the little-known Large Gain Theorem and establishes its use for robust control.  LMI-based robust controller synthesis methods using the Large Gain Theorem are presented and tested numerically on a robust control benchmark problem to demonstrate their practicality and ability to solve robust control problems that could not previously be solved.\n\nDoctoral Committee:\n\nCo-Chair: \nAssistant Professor James R.

SUMMARY:Presentation:CCN Forum-Socioeconomic status and inhibitory control: Neural and environmental mechanisms
DESCRIPTION:Brief description: Inhibitory control ability in childhood is related to broad life outcomes in adulthood\, even above and beyond IQ. On average\, children from low-SES backgrounds are known to perform worse on inhibitory control tasks than their high-SES peers before beginning kindergarten. The mechanisms underlying this SES-related difference are largely unknown. This question is further complicated by the issue of defining \"SES\"\; while there is some evidence that traditional SES variables like family income or maternal education could be driving this effect\, it is also possible that more downstream effects of SES\, such as living in a disadvantaged neighborhood\, are important as well. This presentation will focus on preliminary data from the Michigan Twins Neurogenetics Study (MTwiNS) study\, which utilizes recruitment methods that oversample for neighborhood disadvantage. This presentation will explore the mechanisms underlying the relationship between SES and inhibitory control. In particular\, it will focus on an investigation of the relationships between a behavioral inhibitory control measure\, a neural inhibitory control measure\, and different SES-related variables.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Provocative Display in and around Gottfried Benn's Morgue und andere Gedichte
DESCRIPTION:*pre-reading in English available on request*\n\nU-M Germanic Languages & Literatures Winter Colloquium\n\nFriday March  16\, 2018\n\n2:00-4:00 PM\n\nRoom 3308 Modern Languages Building\n\nPeter McIsaac's essay (available on request in advance) analyses Gottfried Benn’s 1912 Morgue und andere Gedichte (Morgue and other poems) in terms of exhibition. Beyond situating the poems alongside public displays of bodies in morgues and specimens and models used in medical schools and popular anatomy exhibitions of Benn’s day\, the essay also uses concepts from Mieke Bal’s Double Exposures to illuminate how the poems themselves operate in exhibitory terms. With this approach\, the Morgue poems become comprehensible as configurations of material objects that can be visited in the mind’s eye and that stand in critical relationship to popular exhibits and urban culture around 1900.\n\nPeter McIsaac is Associate Professor and Director of Graduate Studies at the University of Michigan Department of Germanic Languages and Literatures. His most recent publication\, \"Medical Collections and Medical Education at the University of Michigan\,” appeared in the 2017 volume Object Lessons and the Formation of Knowledge. The University of Michigan Museums\, Libraries and Collections\, 1817–2017\, eds. Kerstin Barndt and Carla Sinopoli. His article \"'Es schmeckt nach Kino': Provocative Display and Gestures of Exposure in and around Gottfried Benn’s Morgue und andere Gedichte\" is forthcoming in German Studies Review.\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

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Seminars | Constraints on Interacting Massive High Spins
DESCRIPTION:There seem to be no good examples of UV complete theories that have low-lying massive higher spin states isolated by a large gap\, despite the relative ease of constructing effective field theories describing such states.  We discuss constraints from analytic dispersion relations and subluminality of eikonal scattering that may help to explain this and provide insight into the possible interactions of massive higher spins.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:International Territorial Rights: An Institutional Account
DESCRIPTION:A state’s bundle of territorial rights includes an \"international\" territorial right.  This is the presumptive right of a state to a defined territorial space that other states (and international actors) have a duty to respect.  This international dimension of territorial rights is distinct from and prior to the more local aspects of territorial rights.  For instance\, a justification of a state’s jurisdictional authority over persons within its dominion does not by itself say why the state (or the political society it represents) has any international claim to the territory within which it exercises this authority.  Recent arguments for territorial rights invoke\, variously\, the right of individuals to a location in which to maintain conditions of justice\, the right of acquisition\, and the right of self-determination.  Contra these arguments and others\, I propose instead that a state’s international territorial right is ultimately an institutional right\, a right that is defined and sanctioned by the rules\, norms and practices of the global order.  This institutional account of international territorial rights has significant implications for our understanding of global justice.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Theory: An Inspection Model of Learning in Networks
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nWe propose a tractable model of social learning on directed networks. Before adopting a new innovation (e.g. an electric cars)\, an agent sees the adoption decisions of her neighbors\, and then chooses whether to inspect the innovation to assess its quality. We characterize the learning dynamics of the unique equilibrium via a system of ODEs\, and investigate how learning depends on the network structure. In tree networks\, all direct and indirect links contribute to an agent's learning\; moreover\, one direct link is more valuable than an infinite chain of indirect links. But not all links are beneficial: An agent's learning decreases when her neighbors also learn from her\, and when her neighbors are linked to each other.

Ms. Jones will be accompanied by renown musician/composer\, Idris Ackamoor\, and long - time Medea actress\, Felicia Scaggs as they present a musically informed theatrical production.  There will be a Q & A/Discussion with Rhodessa Jones and accompanying performers after the show.  The Medea Project serves incarcerated\, formerly incarcerated\, and HIV + women and community members\, empowering them to heal their lives by connecting to the larger mythical fabric of the world's great stories linking their own stories to them.  Some of the themes in the presentation relate to issues of HIV\, addiction\, prison\, loss\, and recovery.  Myth involves the invocation of deities as well as primordial entities: these stories connect our individual lives to patterns of change\, transformation\, growth\, and power.\n\nTHE MEDEA PROJECT is a production of Cultural Odyssey\, which continues to develop original productions that demonstrate their vision of “ARTS AS SOCIAL ACTIVISM”. In 1989\, on the basis of material developed while conducting classes at the San Francisco County Jail\, Rhodessa Jones created “Big Butt Girls\, Hard Headed Women”\, a performance piece based on the lives of the incarcerated women she encountered. During the work’s creation\, Jones and jail officials were made aware of issues that were specific to female inmates\, such as guilt\, depression\, and self-loathing\, which arose in response to feelings of failure in the face of community. These issues directly contribute to recidivism among female offenders. Based on this observation\, Jones founded THE MEDEA PROJECT: THEATER FOR INCARCERATED WOMEN to explore whether an arts-based approach could help reduce the numbers of women returning to jail.\n\nIn 2008\, THE MEDEA PROJECT joined forces with University of California San Francisco’s Women’s HIV Clinic to create theater that explores what it means to be living with the virus in the twenty-first century. For the past seven years\, The Medea Project: HIV Circle has performed shows all around the United States\, sharing the Truth and the stories of what it means to be female and infected or affected.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Seismic Investigation of the Magma System beneath Laguna del Maule\, Chile
DESCRIPTION:The Laguna del Maule volcanic field\, straddling the Chile-Argentina border at 36° S\, is currently the subject of a multi-disciplinary collaborative investigation supported primarily by the U.S. National Science Foundation Integrated Earth Systems program and the Observatorio Volcanológico de Los Andes del Sur (OVDAS) of SERNAGEOMIN. At least 50 post-glacial (younger than 20 ka) eruptions from more than two dozen vents encircling the 25x17 km lake basin have produced rhyodacitic-to-rhyolitic lava flows and ash deposits totaling > 30 km3\, suggesting that a large\, active\, silicic magma reservoir fuels this system. Since 2007\, GPS and InSAR geodesy reveal that Laguna del Maule has been experiencing rapid uplift at 20 to 25 cm/year centered within the ring of silicic vents. Moreover\, a deformed paleo-shoreline that has been 36Cl-dated implies magma-driven surface uplift of > 60 m and that growth of this large shallow reservoir has occurred over at least the past 9\,400 years. UW-Madison\, Cornell\, and OVDAS have deployed a seismic array covering ~450 km2 that surrounds the lake basin. The array consisted of 18 broadband stations in 2015\, and was enlarged to 47 stations in 2016 (37 broadband\, 10 short-period). The full array will remain in place until late March 2018. A variety of seismic studies are planned for the seismic array data\, including body-wave tomography\, surface-wave tomography\, attenuation tomography\, teleseismic tomography\, receiver function analysis\, seismic interferometry\, and focal mechanism and moment tensor determination. The main goals are to detect the magma chamber underlying Laguna del Maule\, characterize its dimensions and properties\, and assess the state of stress of the system.\n\nI will report on results from surface-wave tomography\, and compare them to the results from other geophysical techniques. Due to the small array aperture (~30 km) and the limited frequency range of usable ambient noise\, we combined three types of data for the surface-wave tomography: standard noise correlation analysis using pairs of stations within the array\, correlation of earthquake coda at pairs of array stations\, and differential dispersion for ambient noise for pairs of array stations correlated with remote stations. Somewhat unexpectedly\, the Vs image shows evidence of a strong upper crustal low velocity anomaly along the southwest side of the lake\, which does not extend under the entire lake basin. Depending on how the boundaries of the low-Vs anomaly are defined\, we obtain estimates of ~25 to ~400 km3\, and melt percentages of 5% to 8%. The position of the anomalous body is very close to the estimated source area for the uplift measured by InSAR and GPS. A Bouguer gravity low\, interpreted to reflect the magma reservoir\, is observed in the same area. In contrast\, magnetotelluric results image a large low-resistivity zone near the north side of the lake and much smaller anomalies elsewhere.\n\nRecent fluid dynamic models of bubble migration and accumulation have shown that volatiles can provide a mechanism whereby basaltic magma recharge could catalyze the eruption of rhyolite without imparting a substantial thermal or physical signature on the erupted lavas. This leads to the idea that during the Holocene\, rhyolitic magma batches have been repeatedly extracted from a broad spatial footprint beneath the lake basin\, but the magma batches that have fed the individual eruptions were likely of relatively modest volume\, comparable to the geophysical results.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Politics of Housing as Healthcare: Intergovernmental Competition and Social Deviance
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nHomelessness is a public health problem. Chronic-homelessness perpetuates poor health outcomes\, while adverse health outcomes contribute to chronic-homelessness. In 2015\, the Obama Administration mandated evidence-based\, non-punitive homelessness policy approaches. However\, municipal policies vary widely\, ranging from providing healthcare and housing services to criminalizing homelessness. Criminalization policies perpetuate homelessness and incur high costs. Housing and healthcare is most effective and reduces costs compared to\ncriminalization. Why do municipalities approach chronic-homelessness so differently\, despite federal action and programmatic costs? This dissertation applies a mixed-methods explanatory sequential design to understand municipal characteristics associated with disparate policy outcomes and explain the effects of intergovernmental relations and social constructions of the homeless on municipal policy decision-making.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Seminar Title:“Dynamics of Translation”
DESCRIPTION:Translation of proteins by the ribosome is intrinsically dynamic\, involving specific assembly of ribosomes on an mRNA\, elongation of the polypeptide chain through directional movement on that mRNA\, and subsequent termination and recycling of the subunits. We have developed single-molecule approaches\, combined with structural methods\, to provide a real time view of translation and its control. We will show how translation elongation is controlled by RNA structure\, nascent peptides and drugs.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Winter 2018 Colloquium- Alexandra D'Arcy ~ University of Victoria
DESCRIPTION:Drawing on findings from dialect acquisition\, historical linguistics\, and variationist sociolinguistics\, this talk addresses one of the most long-standing and central questions in the study of language change: How does change advance across successive generations of speakers? Past research has engaged in post-hoc theorizing about the continuous advancement of change but it has never addressed it directly. Because children must speak differently from their parents for any change to both survive and progress\, only real time observation of the same speakers can provide answers to this question. I introduce a project that explicitly sets out to observe the onset and early progression of change in order to track the diachronic evolution of specific linguistic features\, zeroing in on the period when children begin to participate in change by shifting their language model along an apparently pre-set direction of change.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:ASP Film Screening | Singing in Exile
DESCRIPTION:Aram and Virginia\, an Armenian couple from the diaspora\, transmit an ancestral tradition of chant which is in danger of disappearing to a troupe of European actors. During the process of creating a new play\, the couple takes the company on a trip to Anatolia (also known as Asia Minor\, bounded by the Black Sea to the north\, South Caucasus and Iran to the east\, the Mediterranean Sea to the south and the Aegean Sea and Sea of Marmara to the west) where the Armenian civilization has been destroyed. Along the way\, the questioning of the actors brings to the forefront the wealth of this culture: the chant becomes a language of creation and sharing\, the breath of life.

SUMMARY:Performance:Stephen Kellogg
DESCRIPTION:Over the last decade Massachusetts songwriter Stephen Kellogg has performed more than 1\,500 concerts in more than a dozen countries\, both solo and with a band. In 2013 he gave a TEDx Talk about job satisfaction. Recently on a tour of Europe\, SK (as fans often referto him) made a detour to play the Middle East\, Africa and an aircraft carrier for the Armed Forces. Upon returning to the USA\, he started his annual lyric writing campaign to raise money and awareness in the fight against pediatric cancer. At first glance none of this has anything to do with his music\, but Stephen would argue that \"it is the whole story. The music I make is a reflection of how I spend my time and what I care deeply about.\" His Americana-tinged\, sometimes folk\, often rock\, occasionally pop stylings can make Kellogg hard to define\, and his recent four-part album \"South\, West\, North\, East\" embraces the notion of genre-splitting to the fullest. CBS Radio has called Stephen Kellogg \"the best live act you've never seen\,\" and No Depression calls him \"the best songwriter you're not listening to.\" We think it's time to change this situation. Stephen Kellogg appeared on the Saturday night bill at the 2018 Ann Arbor Folk Festival.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach Out Series: Sleep Deprivation: Habits\, Solutions\, and Strategies
DESCRIPTION:Sleep deprivation is a silent epidemic. Since the invention of the light bulb\, we have obtained less sleep than our ancestors\, prioritizing work\, school\, socializing\, sports\, screen time – just about everything – over sleep. Sleep is viewed as compressible\, something that can be made up at any time\, but rarely is. Most believe this poses little risk. Unfortunately\, they could not be more wrong.\n\nThe truth is\, an adequate amount of good-quality sleep is critical to good health. Lack of sleep leads to deadly crashes\, reduces productivity\, and harms quality of life. Insufficient or disordered sleep can increase risk for ADHD\, depression\, heart attack\, stroke\, arrhythmia\, heart failure\, and early death.\n\nThis Teach-Out can be your first step in doing something about sleep deprivation. Learn how sleep works\, why it is important\, and what bad sleep habits are. Hear solutions you can start tonight to sleep better for the rest of your life. Understand strategies to help family and friends improve their sleep. Learn to advocate for the sleep health of your community. This Teach-Out is intended to connect learners worldwide to the University of Michigan in conversation around sleep deprivation.\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.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach- Out Series: Free Speech in Journalism
DESCRIPTION:A free press is essential for a healthy\, vibrant\, democratic society. Yet public trust in journalism has hit historic lows in recent years and journalists have recently been openly maligned for their work. This Teach-Out prompts participants to think critically about the roles and responsibilities of journalists in a free society. Why is the concept of a free press written into the First Amendment? How are the rights of journalists threatened? Is this a unique moment in history? How have new modes of reporting\, such as social media and citizen journalism\, made the press more vulnerable? And\, finally\, what are the broader societal implications of a restricted and diminished press?\n\nThis Teach-Out is part of the University of Michigan 2018 Speech and Inclusion Series that aims to recognize differing views on speech and inclusion\, to explore how those views play out in politics\, culture\, higher education\, sports\, and journalism\, and to engage in productive conversations to promote a positive campus environment and help the community more deeply understand these complicated issues.\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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Window Installation | 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 uses 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:EXHIBITION ON VIEW: DRAWING CODES: EXPERIMENTAL PROTOCOLS OF ARCHITECTURAL REPRESENTATION
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition on-view March 7 - 28\n\nEmerging technologies of design and production have opened up new ways to engage with traditional practices of architectural drawing. The twenty-four experimental drawings commissioned for this exhibition explore the impact of such technologies on the relationship between code and drawing: how rules and constraints inform the ways architects document\, analyze\, represent\, and design the built environment.\n\nEach drawing engages with at least one of the below prompts that begin to expand the notion of code as it relates to architectural design and representation:\n\nCode as generative constraint. Restrictive codes often govern what is permitted and what is prohibited. Examples of this include building codes\, urban codes\, zoning codes\, accessibility codes\, and energy codes. How can such constraints become generative\, opening up opportunities for design and representation?\nCode as language. A code can be understood as a set of rules\, conventions\, and traditions of syntax and grammar that structure the communication of information. The discipline of architecture similarly has its own language of typologies\, taxonomies\, and classifications. How can drawing engage with such architectural languages?\nCode as cipher. Encoded or encrypted messages are intended to hide or conceal information. Likewise\, architectural geometries\, forms\, spaces\, and assemblies are embedded with invisible organizational\, social\, political\, or economic logics that may not be immediately evident. How can drawing engage with these latent meanings and messages?\nCode as script. A code can be understood as a script or a recipe: a set of instructions to be executed or performed by a computer\, a robot\, or (in the case of theater or film)\, an actor. Scripts often produce unexpected discrepancies between the intent of the code and how it is executed. How can drawing explore these open-ended processes that may not have a defined outcome?\nThe invited architects were asked to conform to a set of strict rules: consistent dimension\, black & white medium\, and limiting the drawing to orthographic projection. The intent is for this consistency to emphasize the wide range of approaches to questions of technology\, design\, and representation. Yet within this considerable diversity of medium\, aesthetic sensibility\, and content\, several common qualities emerge. First is the unsure link between code and outcome: glitches\, bugs\, accidents\, anomalies\, but also loopholes\, deviations\, variances\, and departures that open up new potentials for architectural design and representation. Second is a mature embrace of technology not as a fetishized end game\, but as an instrument employed synthetically in concert with other architectural “tools of the trade.” And finally\, these drawings demonstrate how conventions of architectural representation remain fertile territory for invention and speculation.\n\nAt the show's initial run at CCA in San Francisco\, an adjacent gallery featured work by CCA Architecture students in Kinematic Code\, a course taught by Clayton Muhleman that has been exploring procedural and robotic drawing techniques.\n\nPanel discussion Tuesday\, March 6 at 6:00pm in the Art & Architecture Auditorium\, followed by opening reception in the College Gallery. Exhibition on view March 7 - March 28.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection
DESCRIPTION:Gallery hours are 11 a.m.–5 p.m. Tuesday–Saturday and 12–5 p.m. Sunday\; galleries are closed on Mondays.\n\nThis exhibition celebrates Gertrude Kasle (1917–2016)\, a key figure in the formation of Detroit’s contemporary art community in the 1960s and 70s. A pioneering female gallerist\, Kasle provided midwest audiences with a venue in which to experience avant-garde art from centers like New York City\, while also supporting and exhibiting regional artists. Featuring a collection of paintings\, works on paper\, and sculptures from the height of the Abstract Expressionist movement through the early twenty-first century\, 'Exercising the Eye' speaks to the relationships Kasle fostered with local\, national\, and international artists and her appreciation for artistic expression and experimentation. Critical voices from the last fifty years include Philip Guston\, Jane Hammond\, Grace Hartigan\, Jasper Johns\, Michele Oka Doner\, and Robert Rauschenberg. The exhibition offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore a dynamic moment in Detroit’s cultural history and insight into Kasle’s love of looking and learning.\n\nLead support for 'Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Paul Rand
DESCRIPTION:Throughout the second half of the twentieth century\, pioneering art director and graphic designer Paul Rand (1914–1996) was celebrated for crafting the brand identities of such American corporate icons as ABC\, IBM\, UPS\, and Westinghouse. Rand considered the designer’s task to be the symbolic communication of a company’s character. This recent acquisition presentation features the poster Rand created as part of IBM’s THINK promotional campaign. The design is a rebus\, or visual puzzle\, wherein Rand cleverly transforms the letters of IBM’s logo into pictures. The whimsical use of symbols encourages viewers to interpret—or think—in order to comprehend the company’s intended message that it values “insight\,” “industriousness\,” and “motivation.” The poster is part of a larger recent gift of archival Paul Rand objects donated to UMMA by Franc Nunoo-Quarcoo—professor in the U-M Stamps School of Art and Design and published scholar on Paul Rand—and Maria Phillips.\n\nThis work was recently gifted to UMMA by Maria Phillips and Franc Nunoo-Quarcoo.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Patricia Piccinini: The Comforter
DESCRIPTION:Australian artist Patricia Piccinini’s strange\, hyperreal yet sentimental sculptures are often rooted in her speculative visualizations of future species—beings transformed by\, or even created by\, developments in genetic engineering and technology.  On view at UMMA\, \"The Comforter\" presents the likeness of a young girl whose appearance suggests a rare genetic condition causing excessive hair across her face and body. In her lap she tenderly cradles an udder-shaped\, eyeless creature—a possible reference to current experiments in genetically altered milk-producing animals. The encounter staged by the sculpture\, though curious and unexplained\, appears to be one of innocence and intimacy\, and suggests the potential for emotional connection between a diversity of beings. This theme is a common one for Piccinini\, whose work incorporates (often obliquely) ideas and questions about the ethical implications of scientific progress and the conflicts in our culture between the natural and the man-made.\n\nLead support for \"Patricia Piccinini: The Comforter\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece
DESCRIPTION:Since the 1980s\, British artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster have been known for their shadow sculptures built from materials as diverse as scrap metal\, garbage\, taxidermy\, and sex toys. When light is directed at these assemblages\, they project shadows that are exceptionally accurate and intricate representations of other things entirely.\n\n\"The Masterpiece\" (2014) is a shadow self-portrait of the artists created from metal casts of dead vermin they collected and welded together into a ball. From afar the casts appear to be a stunning abstract silver sculpture\; on closer inspection the disturbing menagerie of creatures emerges\, only to change form again—as a shadow on the wall—into a precise and elegant image that is astonishingly different from the objects that create it.\n\nLead support for \"Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece\" is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities. Additional generous support is provided by the Richard and Janet Miller Fund.

SUMMARY:Performance:ASP Workshop | Evening Service and Musical Concert
DESCRIPTION:The evening will begin in the church sanctuary with the traditional Evening Service of the Armenian Apostolic Church\, the Yeregoyan Jamerkutyun\, which serves as a preparation for both the night ahead and for the following liturgical day. It includes the variable Hampartsi Sharagan\, a cycle of hymns associated with Psalm 120 (121)\, which begins with the incipit: “I lift up mine eyes to the mountains. From there my help will come.” \n    \nBy offering an Evening Service\, the participants in the workshop will be able to experience in action the liturgical music that many of the papers and presentations address the day before. The Evening Service will be offered by the priests and deacons of the St. John Armenian Church\, with the pastor Fr. Aren Jebejian presiding\, and participation by the choir director Dn. Rubik Mailian and guest vocalist Dr. Aram Kerovpyan. \n    \nAfter the Evening Service there will be a short concert and musical description by the renowned Armenian musician\, clarinetist Hachig Kazarian. Mr. Kazarian is a Julliard-trained musician with a Masters Degree in Ethnomusicology. He led the popular band the “Hye Tones” for many years\, and has played with John Berberian and Richard Hagopian\, among others. Mr. Kazarian will perform several Armenian songs\, including a demonstration of a “folk” song with musical patterns similar to the Hamparsi Sharagan. \n    \nThe evening will conclude with a round-table discussion on the state of Armenian music and the challenges of teaching various genres of Armenian music in the Diaspora. Participants will include Dr. Aram Kerovpyan\, Dn. Rubik Mailian\, and Hachig Kazarian.\n\nCaption: Paper · 416 ff. · 13.1 x 10 cm · Awendants\, Khizan in the Province Van · 1647. \n\nCredit: Utopia\, armarium codicum bibliophilorum\, Cod. 4: Armenian Hymnarium (Sharaknots) http://www.e-codices.unifr.ch/en/list/one/utp/0004

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach Out Series: Sleep Deprivation: Habits\, Solutions\, and Strategies
DESCRIPTION:Sleep deprivation is a silent epidemic. Since the invention of the light bulb\, we have obtained less sleep than our ancestors\, prioritizing work\, school\, socializing\, sports\, screen time – just about everything – over sleep. Sleep is viewed as compressible\, something that can be made up at any time\, but rarely is. Most believe this poses little risk. Unfortunately\, they could not be more wrong.\n\nThe truth is\, an adequate amount of good-quality sleep is critical to good health. Lack of sleep leads to deadly crashes\, reduces productivity\, and harms quality of life. Insufficient or disordered sleep can increase risk for ADHD\, depression\, heart attack\, stroke\, arrhythmia\, heart failure\, and early death.\n\nThis Teach-Out can be your first step in doing something about sleep deprivation. Learn how sleep works\, why it is important\, and what bad sleep habits are. Hear solutions you can start tonight to sleep better for the rest of your life. Understand strategies to help family and friends improve their sleep. Learn to advocate for the sleep health of your community. This Teach-Out is intended to connect learners worldwide to the University of Michigan in conversation around sleep deprivation.\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: Free Speech in Journalism
DESCRIPTION:A free press is essential for a healthy\, vibrant\, democratic society. Yet public trust in journalism has hit historic lows in recent years and journalists have recently been openly maligned for their work. This Teach-Out prompts participants to think critically about the roles and responsibilities of journalists in a free society. Why is the concept of a free press written into the First Amendment? How are the rights of journalists threatened? Is this a unique moment in history? How have new modes of reporting\, such as social media and citizen journalism\, made the press more vulnerable? And\, finally\, what are the broader societal implications of a restricted and diminished press?\n\nThis Teach-Out is part of the University of Michigan 2018 Speech and Inclusion Series that aims to recognize differing views on speech and inclusion\, to explore how those views play out in politics\, culture\, higher education\, sports\, and journalism\, and to engage in productive conversations to promote a positive campus environment and help the community more deeply understand these complicated issues.\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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Window Installation | 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 uses 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:EXHIBITION ON VIEW: DRAWING CODES: EXPERIMENTAL PROTOCOLS OF ARCHITECTURAL REPRESENTATION
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition on-view March 7 - 28\n\nEmerging technologies of design and production have opened up new ways to engage with traditional practices of architectural drawing. The twenty-four experimental drawings commissioned for this exhibition explore the impact of such technologies on the relationship between code and drawing: how rules and constraints inform the ways architects document\, analyze\, represent\, and design the built environment.\n\nEach drawing engages with at least one of the below prompts that begin to expand the notion of code as it relates to architectural design and representation:\n\nCode as generative constraint. Restrictive codes often govern what is permitted and what is prohibited. Examples of this include building codes\, urban codes\, zoning codes\, accessibility codes\, and energy codes. How can such constraints become generative\, opening up opportunities for design and representation?\nCode as language. A code can be understood as a set of rules\, conventions\, and traditions of syntax and grammar that structure the communication of information. The discipline of architecture similarly has its own language of typologies\, taxonomies\, and classifications. How can drawing engage with such architectural languages?\nCode as cipher. Encoded or encrypted messages are intended to hide or conceal information. Likewise\, architectural geometries\, forms\, spaces\, and assemblies are embedded with invisible organizational\, social\, political\, or economic logics that may not be immediately evident. How can drawing engage with these latent meanings and messages?\nCode as script. A code can be understood as a script or a recipe: a set of instructions to be executed or performed by a computer\, a robot\, or (in the case of theater or film)\, an actor. Scripts often produce unexpected discrepancies between the intent of the code and how it is executed. How can drawing explore these open-ended processes that may not have a defined outcome?\nThe invited architects were asked to conform to a set of strict rules: consistent dimension\, black & white medium\, and limiting the drawing to orthographic projection. The intent is for this consistency to emphasize the wide range of approaches to questions of technology\, design\, and representation. Yet within this considerable diversity of medium\, aesthetic sensibility\, and content\, several common qualities emerge. First is the unsure link between code and outcome: glitches\, bugs\, accidents\, anomalies\, but also loopholes\, deviations\, variances\, and departures that open up new potentials for architectural design and representation. Second is a mature embrace of technology not as a fetishized end game\, but as an instrument employed synthetically in concert with other architectural “tools of the trade.” And finally\, these drawings demonstrate how conventions of architectural representation remain fertile territory for invention and speculation.\n\nAt the show's initial run at CCA in San Francisco\, an adjacent gallery featured work by CCA Architecture students in Kinematic Code\, a course taught by Clayton Muhleman that has been exploring procedural and robotic drawing techniques.\n\nPanel discussion Tuesday\, March 6 at 6:00pm in the Art & Architecture Auditorium\, followed by opening reception in the College Gallery. Exhibition on view March 7 - March 28.

DESCRIPTION:Gallery hours are 11 a.m.–5 p.m. Tuesday–Saturday and 12–5 p.m. Sunday\; galleries are closed on Mondays.\n\nThis exhibition celebrates Gertrude Kasle (1917–2016)\, a key figure in the formation of Detroit’s contemporary art community in the 1960s and 70s. A pioneering female gallerist\, Kasle provided midwest audiences with a venue in which to experience avant-garde art from centers like New York City\, while also supporting and exhibiting regional artists. Featuring a collection of paintings\, works on paper\, and sculptures from the height of the Abstract Expressionist movement through the early twenty-first century\, 'Exercising the Eye' speaks to the relationships Kasle fostered with local\, national\, and international artists and her appreciation for artistic expression and experimentation. Critical voices from the last fifty years include Philip Guston\, Jane Hammond\, Grace Hartigan\, Jasper Johns\, Michele Oka Doner\, and Robert Rauschenberg. The exhibition offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore a dynamic moment in Detroit’s cultural history and insight into Kasle’s love of looking and learning.\n\nLead support for 'Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Paul Rand
DESCRIPTION:Throughout the second half of the twentieth century\, pioneering art director and graphic designer Paul Rand (1914–1996) was celebrated for crafting the brand identities of such American corporate icons as ABC\, IBM\, UPS\, and Westinghouse. Rand considered the designer’s task to be the symbolic communication of a company’s character. This recent acquisition presentation features the poster Rand created as part of IBM’s THINK promotional campaign. The design is a rebus\, or visual puzzle\, wherein Rand cleverly transforms the letters of IBM’s logo into pictures. The whimsical use of symbols encourages viewers to interpret—or think—in order to comprehend the company’s intended message that it values “insight\,” “industriousness\,” and “motivation.” The poster is part of a larger recent gift of archival Paul Rand objects donated to UMMA by Franc Nunoo-Quarcoo—professor in the U-M Stamps School of Art and Design and published scholar on Paul Rand—and Maria Phillips.\n\nThis work was recently gifted to UMMA by Maria Phillips and Franc Nunoo-Quarcoo.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Patricia Piccinini: The Comforter
DESCRIPTION:Australian artist Patricia Piccinini’s strange\, hyperreal yet sentimental sculptures are often rooted in her speculative visualizations of future species—beings transformed by\, or even created by\, developments in genetic engineering and technology.  On view at UMMA\, \"The Comforter\" presents the likeness of a young girl whose appearance suggests a rare genetic condition causing excessive hair across her face and body. In her lap she tenderly cradles an udder-shaped\, eyeless creature—a possible reference to current experiments in genetically altered milk-producing animals. The encounter staged by the sculpture\, though curious and unexplained\, appears to be one of innocence and intimacy\, and suggests the potential for emotional connection between a diversity of beings. This theme is a common one for Piccinini\, whose work incorporates (often obliquely) ideas and questions about the ethical implications of scientific progress and the conflicts in our culture between the natural and the man-made.\n\nLead support for \"Patricia Piccinini: The Comforter\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece
DESCRIPTION:Since the 1980s\, British artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster have been known for their shadow sculptures built from materials as diverse as scrap metal\, garbage\, taxidermy\, and sex toys. When light is directed at these assemblages\, they project shadows that are exceptionally accurate and intricate representations of other things entirely.\n\n\"The Masterpiece\" (2014) is a shadow self-portrait of the artists created from metal casts of dead vermin they collected and welded together into a ball. From afar the casts appear to be a stunning abstract silver sculpture\; on closer inspection the disturbing menagerie of creatures emerges\, only to change form again—as a shadow on the wall—into a precise and elegant image that is astonishingly different from the objects that create it.\n\nLead support for \"Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece\" is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities. Additional generous support is provided by the Richard and Janet Miller Fund.

SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:Guided Tour - Aftermath: Landscapes of Devastation
DESCRIPTION:'Aftermath' examines landscape photographs made at the sites of natural or human-made disasters including volcano eruptions and floods\, massacres and uprisings\, and even nuclear explosions. The photographs picture well-known or\, at times\, untold stories of violence\, tragedy\, and loss. Each scene is visually stunning yet viewers may be surprised at the elements of beauty and tranquility present in these tragic landscapes. The images remind us that disaster is often a collective experience that can tear apart the seams of a culture’s social fabric and shape histories of a culture well after an event. UMMA docents will guide visitors as they contemplate photography’s role in depicting and shaping representations of past and present landscapes of devastation.\n\nLead support for 'Aftermath: Landscapes of Devastation' is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan School for Environment and Sustainability and Department of Screen Arts and Cultures.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach Out Series: Sleep Deprivation: Habits\, Solutions\, and Strategies
DESCRIPTION:Sleep deprivation is a silent epidemic. Since the invention of the light bulb\, we have obtained less sleep than our ancestors\, prioritizing work\, school\, socializing\, sports\, screen time – just about everything – over sleep. Sleep is viewed as compressible\, something that can be made up at any time\, but rarely is. Most believe this poses little risk. Unfortunately\, they could not be more wrong.\n\nThe truth is\, an adequate amount of good-quality sleep is critical to good health. Lack of sleep leads to deadly crashes\, reduces productivity\, and harms quality of life. Insufficient or disordered sleep can increase risk for ADHD\, depression\, heart attack\, stroke\, arrhythmia\, heart failure\, and early death.\n\nThis Teach-Out can be your first step in doing something about sleep deprivation. Learn how sleep works\, why it is important\, and what bad sleep habits are. Hear solutions you can start tonight to sleep better for the rest of your life. Understand strategies to help family and friends improve their sleep. Learn to advocate for the sleep health of your community. This Teach-Out is intended to connect learners worldwide to the University of Michigan in conversation around sleep deprivation.\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.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach- Out Series: Free Speech in Journalism
DESCRIPTION:A free press is essential for a healthy\, vibrant\, democratic society. Yet public trust in journalism has hit historic lows in recent years and journalists have recently been openly maligned for their work. This Teach-Out prompts participants to think critically about the roles and responsibilities of journalists in a free society. Why is the concept of a free press written into the First Amendment? How are the rights of journalists threatened? Is this a unique moment in history? How have new modes of reporting\, such as social media and citizen journalism\, made the press more vulnerable? And\, finally\, what are the broader societal implications of a restricted and diminished press?\n\nThis Teach-Out is part of the University of Michigan 2018 Speech and Inclusion Series that aims to recognize differing views on speech and inclusion\, to explore how those views play out in politics\, culture\, higher education\, sports\, and journalism\, and to engage in productive conversations to promote a positive campus environment and help the community more deeply understand these complicated issues.\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.

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 uses 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Beauty Meets My Mess: Mixed Media Collage
DESCRIPTION:Re Kielar was born in Chicago’s little Italy neighborhood with her grandparents upstairs and aunt and uncle across the courtyard. Her world was very Italian\, and when she walked outside\, she felt like she was leaving one country and entering another. Ever since she was a child\, she has loved paint and texture and seen beauty in the most unlikely places. Her artwork expresses human emotion through drawing in ink with rough papers\, old book pages\, metal embellishments and natural objects. Each abstract collage is coupled with her poetry\, so each piece is a walk into her soul. She hopes that by sharing that which is broken\, we can find healing spaces that knit our hearts together.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Timeless Instants: Still Life Photographs
DESCRIPTION:Originally from Kansas City\, Tina West discovered photography while studying sculpture. She sees her photographs more as paintings\, and her still lifes have powerful cast shadows and frequent light play. Influenced by Gerhardt Richter and surrealism\, West’s images communicate a sense of being\, connecting not only the objects in the photographs\, but also the viewer and the photograph. She draws inspiration from the objects in her vast collection of unique treasures\, and she speaks to their unreserved timelessness with maturity and wonder. All of the images in this exhibit were created using instant film in a 4x5 view camera.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:LACS Exhibition. #NoHumanIsAlien: Germán Andino's The Habit of Silence
DESCRIPTION:Reception: An exhibition of Germán Andino’s graphic history: The Habit of Silence (El hábito de la mordaza) \n    \nHonduran journalist and artist Germán Andino’s harrowing work of graphic history depicts gang violence in the city of San Pedro Sula from personal and deeply humane perspective. The installation of his work as a mural in a central public space on our campus is intended to provoke conversation in place of silence. Much reporting on Central America depicts the problem of gangs and violence as far away and impossible to solve\, and the victims and perpetrators of this violence as essentially alien. With the hashtag #NoHumanIsAlien\, the artist and organizers invite reflection on a crisis of violence in Central America that has been exacerbated\, and in important ways created\, by policies originating in the United States. We hope to spark and enrich debate on our campus about current immigration policies\, including the cancellation of Temporary Protected Status for Salvadoran migrants and the asylum claims of tens of thousands of unaccompanied Central American children\, children who have fled the conditions depicted in Andino’s work. \n    \nThis exhibit\, a large-scale comic strip along the halls of the second floor of Mason Hall\, will be open for viewing from March 19 - April 6\, 2018. \n    \nJoin us for the opening reception with Germán Andino on March 26\, 2018 from 5:00 - 6:30 pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Life and Times of Lizzy Bennet
DESCRIPTION:As the 200th anniversary of Jane Austen’s death\, 2017 presents an opportunity to showcase not only significant early editions of Austen’s works held in the Special Collections Library\, but a much broader swath of materials revealing the historical milieu in which she and her characters lived.\n\nThe 1780s-1810s was a tumultuous time period in Britain with effects reaching to the present day\, and we are fortunate to be able to draw on a rich collection of sources that illustrate Austen’s historical moment\, from A Companion to the Ballroom and The Book of Common Prayer to An Essay on the Slavery and Commerce of the Human Species... and A Vindication of the Rights of Woman.\n\nThe Library will be closed December 23 to January 1.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Border Crossers
DESCRIPTION:Students across campus—from LSA\, Engineering\, Art and Design\, and Information—will work with visiting artist Chico MacMurtrie during winter semester 2018 planning\, building\, and launching a 40-foot robotic sculpture that poetically explores the notion of borders and boundary conditions. The project\, led by the Institute for the Humanities\, symbolizes the humanities in action\, and the empowerment that can be achieved through working together\, overcoming obstacles and divides\, and discovering creative solutions.\n\nMacmurtrie is an award winning artist\, renowned internationally for his large-scale robotic sculpture\, whose work combines materiality and robotics\, the visceral and conceptual. His artist residency and interdisciplinary project \"Border Crossers\" encourages investigation of borders as constructed entities\, both embodying a simple curiosity to see what lies on the other side of a border (national\, architectural\, environmental\, etc.) and expression of a utopian desire to live in a world without borders.\n\nIn February\, MacMurtrie and the students will launch the robotic sculpture during two \"performances\" and MacMurtrie will give a special Penny W. Stamps Lecture. The gallery exhibition will include large-scale drawings which serve as plans and maps for MacMurtrie's visionary Border Crossers. Life-size robotic models will also be presented in the exhibition in conversation with the drawings. The models\, built by the all-student team with MacMurtrie's guidance\, are prototypes for the project\, offering preliminary steps in the workshop and the process towards realizing the large scale robotic sculpture.\n\nChico MacMurtrie is the Artistic Director of Amorphic Robot Works\, an interdisciplinary creative collective located in Brooklyn\, NY. MacMurtrie/ARW have received numerous awards for their experimental new media artworks\, including five grants from the National Endowment for the Arts\, the Andy Warhol Foundation Grant\, the Rockefeller Foundation Fellowship\, VIDA Life 11.0\, and Prix Ars Electronica. Chico MacMurtrie was awarded the Guggenheim Fellowship in Fine Arts in 2016.\n\nVisiting artist Chico MacMurtrie's residency and project is sponsored by the U-M Institute for the Humanities in collaboration with  U-M Museum of Art\, Michigan Robotics\, Michigan Engineering\, School of Information\, Penny Stamps Speaker Series\, Stamps School of Art and Design\, and ArtsEngin.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Clinical Science Brown Bag:  DHEA/Cortisol ratios in adolescents at high and low familial risk for depression
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Teens at familial risk for depression are more likely to develop depression than their low risk peers. One proposed mechanism for this greater prevalence of depression in high-risk teens is impaired ability to regulate stress. As such\, an understanding of the hormones involved in stress processing can help elucidate these mechanisms. While much of this work has focused on the release of the stress hormone cortisol\, there is growing evidence that the neuroprotective hormone dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) may play a critical role in stress regulation and that the ratios of DHEA to cortisol may provide more meaningful information about individual differences in stress processing than either hormone alone. This talk will explore various conceptualizations of DHEA to cortisol ratios and will present implications for using ratios to help understand mechanisms of risk for psychopathology in adolescents at high familial risk for psychopathology.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:EXHIBITION ON VIEW: DRAWING CODES: EXPERIMENTAL PROTOCOLS OF ARCHITECTURAL REPRESENTATION
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition on-view March 7 - 28\n\nEmerging technologies of design and production have opened up new ways to engage with traditional practices of architectural drawing. The twenty-four experimental drawings commissioned for this exhibition explore the impact of such technologies on the relationship between code and drawing: how rules and constraints inform the ways architects document\, analyze\, represent\, and design the built environment.\n\nEach drawing engages with at least one of the below prompts that begin to expand the notion of code as it relates to architectural design and representation:\n\nCode as generative constraint. Restrictive codes often govern what is permitted and what is prohibited. Examples of this include building codes\, urban codes\, zoning codes\, accessibility codes\, and energy codes. How can such constraints become generative\, opening up opportunities for design and representation?\nCode as language. A code can be understood as a set of rules\, conventions\, and traditions of syntax and grammar that structure the communication of information. The discipline of architecture similarly has its own language of typologies\, taxonomies\, and classifications. How can drawing engage with such architectural languages?\nCode as cipher. Encoded or encrypted messages are intended to hide or conceal information. Likewise\, architectural geometries\, forms\, spaces\, and assemblies are embedded with invisible organizational\, social\, political\, or economic logics that may not be immediately evident. How can drawing engage with these latent meanings and messages?\nCode as script. A code can be understood as a script or a recipe: a set of instructions to be executed or performed by a computer\, a robot\, or (in the case of theater or film)\, an actor. Scripts often produce unexpected discrepancies between the intent of the code and how it is executed. How can drawing explore these open-ended processes that may not have a defined outcome?\nThe invited architects were asked to conform to a set of strict rules: consistent dimension\, black & white medium\, and limiting the drawing to orthographic projection. The intent is for this consistency to emphasize the wide range of approaches to questions of technology\, design\, and representation. Yet within this considerable diversity of medium\, aesthetic sensibility\, and content\, several common qualities emerge. First is the unsure link between code and outcome: glitches\, bugs\, accidents\, anomalies\, but also loopholes\, deviations\, variances\, and departures that open up new potentials for architectural design and representation. Second is a mature embrace of technology not as a fetishized end game\, but as an instrument employed synthetically in concert with other architectural “tools of the trade.” And finally\, these drawings demonstrate how conventions of architectural representation remain fertile territory for invention and speculation.\n\nAt the show's initial run at CCA in San Francisco\, an adjacent gallery featured work by CCA Architecture students in Kinematic Code\, a course taught by Clayton Muhleman that has been exploring procedural and robotic drawing techniques.\n\nPanel discussion Tuesday\, March 6 at 6:00pm in the Art & Architecture Auditorium\, followed by opening reception in the College Gallery. Exhibition on view March 7 - March 28.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Interior Streets
DESCRIPTION:Join us March 9\, 3pm\, for a reception and Carl Wilson in conversation with our curator Amanda Krugliak.\n\nThe \"Interior Streets\" exhibition features the work of Detroit artist Carl Wilson\, known for his stark black and white linocut prints. The self-taught artist sees himself as a documentarian of lives easily ignored in a world obsessed with materialism and celebrity. His work frequently highlights not only the strength found in conquering the everyday and mundane\, but also the pain and defeat of those not able to rise to the occasion. His love of film noir and pulp fiction novels from the 1940s and '50s has led him to experiment with minimalist animation and comic book illustration. He embraces the whimsy hidden in the darkness.\n\nCarl is the recipient of a 2013 Kresge Artist Fellowship and is an alumni of the historic Yaddo Artists’ Community. During his residency there he carved the prints for\, and wrote the book\, Her Purse Smelled like Juicyfruit\, a recollection of his mother’s life. Carl was named 2014 guest curator of Detroit’s Carr Center. Also in 2014 Complex Online Magazine named him one of Twenty Detroit Artists You Should Know. He was featured in Essay'd\, a monthly publication about Detroit artists. 2017 sees the release of a comic book\, the first installment of his graphic novel\, Dead and Lost in Detroit.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection
DESCRIPTION:Gallery hours are 11 a.m.–5 p.m. Tuesday–Saturday and 12–5 p.m. Sunday\; galleries are closed on Mondays.\n\nThis exhibition celebrates Gertrude Kasle (1917–2016)\, a key figure in the formation of Detroit’s contemporary art community in the 1960s and 70s. A pioneering female gallerist\, Kasle provided midwest audiences with a venue in which to experience avant-garde art from centers like New York City\, while also supporting and exhibiting regional artists. Featuring a collection of paintings\, works on paper\, and sculptures from the height of the Abstract Expressionist movement through the early twenty-first century\, 'Exercising the Eye' speaks to the relationships Kasle fostered with local\, national\, and international artists and her appreciation for artistic expression and experimentation. Critical voices from the last fifty years include Philip Guston\, Jane Hammond\, Grace Hartigan\, Jasper Johns\, Michele Oka Doner\, and Robert Rauschenberg. The exhibition offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore a dynamic moment in Detroit’s cultural history and insight into Kasle’s love of looking and learning.\n\nLead support for 'Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Paul Rand
DESCRIPTION:Throughout the second half of the twentieth century\, pioneering art director and graphic designer Paul Rand (1914–1996) was celebrated for crafting the brand identities of such American corporate icons as ABC\, IBM\, UPS\, and Westinghouse. Rand considered the designer’s task to be the symbolic communication of a company’s character. This recent acquisition presentation features the poster Rand created as part of IBM’s THINK promotional campaign. The design is a rebus\, or visual puzzle\, wherein Rand cleverly transforms the letters of IBM’s logo into pictures. The whimsical use of symbols encourages viewers to interpret—or think—in order to comprehend the company’s intended message that it values “insight\,” “industriousness\,” and “motivation.” The poster is part of a larger recent gift of archival Paul Rand objects donated to UMMA by Franc Nunoo-Quarcoo—professor in the U-M Stamps School of Art and Design and published scholar on Paul Rand—and Maria Phillips.\n\nThis work was recently gifted to UMMA by Maria Phillips and Franc Nunoo-Quarcoo.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Patricia Piccinini: The Comforter
DESCRIPTION:Australian artist Patricia Piccinini’s strange\, hyperreal yet sentimental sculptures are often rooted in her speculative visualizations of future species—beings transformed by\, or even created by\, developments in genetic engineering and technology.  On view at UMMA\, \"The Comforter\" presents the likeness of a young girl whose appearance suggests a rare genetic condition causing excessive hair across her face and body. In her lap she tenderly cradles an udder-shaped\, eyeless creature—a possible reference to current experiments in genetically altered milk-producing animals. The encounter staged by the sculpture\, though curious and unexplained\, appears to be one of innocence and intimacy\, and suggests the potential for emotional connection between a diversity of beings. This theme is a common one for Piccinini\, whose work incorporates (often obliquely) ideas and questions about the ethical implications of scientific progress and the conflicts in our culture between the natural and the man-made.\n\nLead support for \"Patricia Piccinini: The Comforter\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece
DESCRIPTION:Since the 1980s\, British artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster have been known for their shadow sculptures built from materials as diverse as scrap metal\, garbage\, taxidermy\, and sex toys. When light is directed at these assemblages\, they project shadows that are exceptionally accurate and intricate representations of other things entirely.\n\n\"The Masterpiece\" (2014) is a shadow self-portrait of the artists created from metal casts of dead vermin they collected and welded together into a ball. From afar the casts appear to be a stunning abstract silver sculpture\; on closer inspection the disturbing menagerie of creatures emerges\, only to change form again—as a shadow on the wall—into a precise and elegant image that is astonishingly different from the objects that create it.\n\nLead support for \"Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece\" is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities. Additional generous support is provided by the Richard and Janet Miller Fund.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Developmental Area Brown Bag - The Impact of Early Adversity on Brain Development and Mental Health: Implications for Policy and Practice
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nEarly adversity is a common experience for children in the U.S.\, with 1 in 5 growing up in poverty and up to 1 in 4 experiencing child maltreatment\, increasing the likelihood of later mental disorders. However\, the mechanisms linking early adversity and later mental health are unclear\, limiting the development of effective intervention and prevention strategies. I will present the results of my graduate work investigating the neural and behavioral consequences of early adversity\, including a meta-analysis of child maltreatment and brain reactivity\, as well as explorations of unique effects of different types of early adversity on brain reactivity and mental health. I will then discuss implications of this work for policy and practice.\n\nBio: \nTyler Hein is a fifth-year doctoral candidate in Developmental Psychology. Her current work investigates neurobiological mechanisms linking childhood adversity to adolescent mental health\, and her dissertation evaluates whether distinct forms of adversity have differential impact on brain function and mental health. Tyler’s long-term goal is to conduct research that directly aids in the development of effective prevention and intervention strategies to improve child and family well-being.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Prediction with network covariates and applications to brain connectomics.
DESCRIPTION:CSAAW WORKSHOP\nAbstract:\nMotivated by applications in neuroscience\, in this talk\, I will present some methodology for studying samples of networks. The brain is a system composed of multiple units interacting with each other\, and hence it can be represented as a network. Imaging techniques have made possible to analyze the connectivity between regions in the brain using brain networks. Moreover\, the availability of data from multiple subjects allows us to study these networks at the population level\, which can help us to understand the characteristics of the brain connectivity under different conditions\, such as brain disorders. I will talk about classification of networks\, and present a method able to identify important nodes for prediction\, and supervised community detection\, in which the goal is to identify partitions of the nodes that can distinguish between different populations.\n\nPLEASE RSVP AND PROVIDE FOOD PREFERENCES.  \nhttps://umich.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_6nC6diSTmwYsdqR

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Politicization of Place: UKIP and Perceptions of Local Diversity in the UK
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nAlthough most social science studies involving geography assess the effect of place on politics\, we ask whether and how politics\, and specifically political campaigns\, can change individuals' perceptions and understandings of their local geographies. If geographic context effects arise from both objective experience and subjective perceptions\, can \"context effects\" or \"community effects\" on political attitudes and behaviors be constructed or at least influenced by the political environment of the person? We use the case of UKIP campaign contact in the UK and measure perceptions of place using thousands of Google Maps drawn by the respondents of the 2014-2015 British Election Study.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:The Higgs Boson and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:In 2012\, physicists at the world’s largest particle accelerator at CERN\, in Geneva\, Switzerland\, announced to great fanfare the discovery of a fundamental particle in physics called the Higgs boson\, culminating a decades long search and putting to rest what was called “the central problem in particle physics.” What exactly is the Higgs boson and why was its discovery so important? In this course we will view and discuss a Teaching Company series of lectures of the same title by Cal Tech physics professor and author Sean Carroll\, who describes for a lay audience what particle physics is all about and how the Higgs gives mass to everything in the universe\, \nmaking life possible. There will be two lectures per session with 20 minutes of discussion following each. Craig Stephan is a physicist who worked for 30+ years at Ford Research and Argonne National Laboratories. He has led several OLLI discussion groups\, including ones on cosmology and climate change. \nThis Study Group is for those over 50\, and will meet Mondays March 19-April 23.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Schwarzman Scholars Infor Session and Office Hours
DESCRIPTION:Schwarzman Scholars is a highly-selective\, fully-funded scholarship program\, based at the distinguished Tsinghua University in Beijing\, designed to ensure that the next generation of business\, political and civil society leaders around the world can effectively serve as bridges between China and the rest of the world. We aim to achieve this by (1) recruiting promising young leaders from around the world\, people who have the ambition and talent to take on executive roles in government\, civil society\, or business and who have a commitment to building understanding among people with differing perspectives\; (2) educating them about China’s global role via a one-year Master’s in global affairs at Tsinghua and (3) linking them to senior mentors in their field in China and to their peers among China’s rising young leaders. You may also find it helpful to view this video introduction\, this profile in the New York Times\, and/or to download the program’s full brochure.\nApplications for the 2019-2020 class open April 2018\, with selections made in November 2018.  (Applicants with Chinese passports apply by May 2018\, with selections made in September 2018).\nScholars will hone their leadership skills through a curriculum designed by leading academics from around the globe and frequent interactions with distinguished guest lecturers. Additionally\, Scholars will spend considerable time outside the classroom developing firsthand exposure to China and its people through thematic study tours\, a mentoring program and internships with key employers in Beijing. All classes will be taught in English\, and students will have the opportunity to study Mandarin. Schwarzman Scholars will recruit an internationally diverse cohort each year\, people who have the ambition and talent to take on executive roles in government\, civil society\, or business and who have a commitment to building understanding among people with differing perspectives\, welcoming applicants up to age 28.\nThe program has been built with the support of donors from around the world and a distinguished Advisory Board consisting of important leaders including Prime Minister Tony Blair\, President Nicolas Sarkozy\, Prime Minister Brian Mulroney\, Prime Minister Kevin Rudd\, Tung Chee Hwa\, Henry Kissinger\, Colin Powell\, Condoleezza Rice\, Hank Paulson\, Bob Rubin\, Jim Wolfensohn\, Richard Haas\, Richard Levin\, Sir Colin Lucas\, Richard Brodhead\, Nobel Laureate Chen Ning Yang\, John Thornton\, Yo-Yo Ma\, and Bob Dudley.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Decision Consortium - The Problem of Political Misperceptions
DESCRIPTION:Journalists and fact-checkers devote extensive resources to combating political misperceptions yet significant percentages of the public remain misinformed about politics. Understanding why people hold misperceptions is critical if we hope to limit their political influence. In this talk I highlight several key factors that contribute to false beliefs about politics. First\, I demonstrate that partisan media facilitate inaccurate political beliefs but that this effect is not due to partisan echo chambers. Instead\, I suggest partisan media outlets might increase misperceptions by offering news consumers cues regarding the legitimacy of the evidence surrounding these claims. Second\, I illustrate how both distinct emotions and political intuition\, not simply partisan bias\, facilitate acceptance of political falsehoods.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Critical Crossings Lecture by Kinohi Nishikawa
DESCRIPTION:Please join the English Department and Critical Contemporary Studies for a Critical Crossings Lecture by Kinohi Nishikawa\n\nScholars usually rely on a handful of categories to recount a literary history: period\, aesthetic movement\, authorship. As deployed over decades of academic institutionalization\, these categories have proven useful for reconstructing scenes of literary creation as the key to understanding our literary past. This talk explains how twentieth-century African American literature recommends new categories for literary history\, ones less invested in idealized notions of inspiration or creation. For most of the century\, authors\, editors\, and publishers struggled mightily over the question of exactly who the audience for black writing was. As the material interface between a work and its audience\, book design became an important point of contestation in these struggles. By attending to this highly visible yet not always noticed interface\, the talk considers how twentieth-century book design negotiated between readers and markets\, actual and imagined communities\, to constitute a new literary tradition.\n\nKinohi Nishikawa is Assistant Professor of English and African American Studies at Princeton University. His writing on African American print and popular culture has appeared in PMLA\, Book History\, and African American Review. Kinohi’s first book\, Street Players: Black Pulp Fiction and the Making of a Literary Underground\, is forthcoming from the University of Chicago Press.\n\nAdditional support generously provided by: the Clements Library\; LSA\; and the Departments of Afroamerican and African Studies\, American Culture\, Anthropology\, and History of Art

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Gendering the Gulf Campus: Designing the City State University
DESCRIPTION:The Gulf is a rapidly developing region. Coming into being alongside skyscrapers\, stadia\, and man-made islands are universities and campuses. In a region in which governmental discourse often revolves around human development\, higher education plays a major role in forming citizens and developing economies. In this talk\, Bader al-Bader focuses on \n uwait University's new sex-segregated mega-campus on the edge of the city\, examining its design as an overtly gendered space. Since Kuwait is a city state\, and its university the only public institution of higher learning\, much hope rests upon the institution's efficacy. The new singular campus consolidates\, integrates\, and homogenizes the disparate extant university campuses dispersed across the city. The new singular campus establishes a novel form of separation that leverages architectural design and persuasion skills. Keeping in mind the constitutional requirement of equity and non-discrimination\, the design of the new mega-campus exhibits the major lengths to which the design endeavor went in attempting to emphasize equality through mirroring. \n\nBader al-Bader is a Ph.D. student in the Taubman College of Architecture and\nUrban Planning at the University of Michigan\, interested in studying the spaces in\nwhich of the magic of higher education takes place. He is currently a co-coordinator\nof Interdisciplinary Islamic Studies Seminar and the Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion\nCommittee co-chair at Graduate Rackham International. Visit persistentpasts.com to\nlearn more about the most recent exhibition he has worked on.\n\nSponsored by: Department of Near Eastern Studies

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | First Measurement of Monoenergetic Muon Neutrino Charged Current Interactions\n
DESCRIPTION:This talk will present the first measurement of monoenergetic muon neutrino charged current interactions. The MiniBooNE experiment at Fermilab has been used to isolate and study 236 MeV muon neutrino events originating from charged kaon decay at rest. The muon kinematics and total cross section have been extracted from this data. Notably\, this result is the first known-energy\, weak-interaction-only probe of the nucleus to yield a measurement of omega (energy transferred to the nucleus) using neutrinos\, a quantity thus far only accessible through electron scattering. I will discuss the significance of this measurement\, and these monoenergetic neutrinos in general\, for elucidating both the neutrino-nucleus interaction and oscillations.\n

DESCRIPTION:Monday\, March 19\, 2018\n4:00-5:00 p.m.\nFree and open to the public.\n\nMichigan Ross Campus\nRoss Building\n701 Tappan \nColloquium\, 6th Floor\nAnn Arbor\, MI 48109-1234\n\nRegister: http://myumi.ch/J7Adg \n\nThe Positive Links Speaker Series\, presented by Michigan Ross’ Center for Positive Organizations\, offers inspiring and practical research-based strategies for building organizations that are high performing and bring out the best in its people. Attendees learn from leading positive organizational scholars and connect with our community of academics\, students\, staff\, and leaders.\n\nPositive Links sessions take place at Michigan Ross\, and are free and open to the public.\n\nAbout the talk:\nAs the world gets smaller\, people with different cultural backgrounds are colliding like never before. A root cause of many everyday tensions between genders\, races\, and social classes is the clash between the values and practices of independence and those of interdependence. Drawing from her book\, Clash! How to Thrive in a Multicultural World\, Markus will show how recognizing and including interdependence within workplace culture cycles can bridge divides and enhance individual motivation\, creativity\, and performance.\n\nAbout Markus:\nHazel Rose Markus is Professor of Psychology and Davis-Brack Professor in the Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University and a member of the National Academy of Sciences. She is also co-director of SPARQ: Social Psychological Answers to Real-world Questions. Her research focuses on how culture shapes mind and behavior.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Call for Submissions rEVOLUTION: Making Art for Change
DESCRIPTION:The Sexual Assault Prevention and Awareness Center's Survivor Empowerment & Ally Support (SEAS) Volunteer Program is now accepting submissions for the 13th annual rEVOLUTION: Making Art for Change art show!\n\nWe welcome all UM affiliated artists to submit their artworks to be displayed in our art show in rEVOLUTION: Making Art for Change. Art of any medium is welcome\, including\, but not limited to: painting\, drawing\, photography\, sculpture\, spoken word\, and poetry. The themes of our show are gender\, sexism\, sexual violence\, empowerment\, and healing. The topic of sexual violence can include sexual assault\, intimate partner violence\, sexual and gender-based harassment\, and stalking.\n\nHealing is a process that works in different ways for different people. Creating and displaying art can prove very helpful as a way to promote healing. Artistic expression provides a medium to bring up and process emotions and experiences in a way that can be difficult to discuss otherwise. \n\nOur goal with this event is to create and engage in a supportive community space for survivors where UM student allies and survivors will build empathy and an understanding of sexual violence and healing through the unique creative expression of survivor experiences and perspectives.\n\nPlease e-mail submissions to artrevolution@umich.edu and fill out this form (https://goo.gl/forms/CeVUxF7iRs9fQbPy1) by Monday March 19th! If your work is accepted\, it will be displayed at the opening night of the art show the evening of April 6th.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach Out Series: Sleep Deprivation: Habits\, Solutions\, and Strategies
DESCRIPTION:Sleep deprivation is a silent epidemic. Since the invention of the light bulb\, we have obtained less sleep than our ancestors\, prioritizing work\, school\, socializing\, sports\, screen time – just about everything – over sleep. Sleep is viewed as compressible\, something that can be made up at any time\, but rarely is. Most believe this poses little risk. Unfortunately\, they could not be more wrong.\n\nThe truth is\, an adequate amount of good-quality sleep is critical to good health. Lack of sleep leads to deadly crashes\, reduces productivity\, and harms quality of life. Insufficient or disordered sleep can increase risk for ADHD\, depression\, heart attack\, stroke\, arrhythmia\, heart failure\, and early death.\n\nThis Teach-Out can be your first step in doing something about sleep deprivation. Learn how sleep works\, why it is important\, and what bad sleep habits are. Hear solutions you can start tonight to sleep better for the rest of your life. Understand strategies to help family and friends improve their sleep. Learn to advocate for the sleep health of your community. This Teach-Out is intended to connect learners worldwide to the University of Michigan in conversation around sleep deprivation.\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.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach- Out Series: Free Speech in Journalism
DESCRIPTION:A free press is essential for a healthy\, vibrant\, democratic society. Yet public trust in journalism has hit historic lows in recent years and journalists have recently been openly maligned for their work. This Teach-Out prompts participants to think critically about the roles and responsibilities of journalists in a free society. Why is the concept of a free press written into the First Amendment? How are the rights of journalists threatened? Is this a unique moment in history? How have new modes of reporting\, such as social media and citizen journalism\, made the press more vulnerable? And\, finally\, what are the broader societal implications of a restricted and diminished press?\n\nThis Teach-Out is part of the University of Michigan 2018 Speech and Inclusion Series that aims to recognize differing views on speech and inclusion\, to explore how those views play out in politics\, culture\, higher education\, sports\, and journalism\, and to engage in productive conversations to promote a positive campus environment and help the community more deeply understand these complicated issues.\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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Window Installation | 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 uses 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Beauty Meets My Mess: Mixed Media Collage
DESCRIPTION:Re Kielar was born in Chicago’s little Italy neighborhood with her grandparents upstairs and aunt and uncle across the courtyard. Her world was very Italian\, and when she walked outside\, she felt like she was leaving one country and entering another. Ever since she was a child\, she has loved paint and texture and seen beauty in the most unlikely places. Her artwork expresses human emotion through drawing in ink with rough papers\, old book pages\, metal embellishments and natural objects. Each abstract collage is coupled with her poetry\, so each piece is a walk into her soul. She hopes that by sharing that which is broken\, we can find healing spaces that knit our hearts together.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Timeless Instants: Still Life Photographs
DESCRIPTION:Originally from Kansas City\, Tina West discovered photography while studying sculpture. She sees her photographs more as paintings\, and her still lifes have powerful cast shadows and frequent light play. Influenced by Gerhardt Richter and surrealism\, West’s images communicate a sense of being\, connecting not only the objects in the photographs\, but also the viewer and the photograph. She draws inspiration from the objects in her vast collection of unique treasures\, and she speaks to their unreserved timelessness with maturity and wonder. All of the images in this exhibit were created using instant film in a 4x5 view camera.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:LACS Exhibition. #NoHumanIsAlien: Germán Andino's The Habit of Silence
DESCRIPTION:Reception: An exhibition of Germán Andino’s graphic history: The Habit of Silence (El hábito de la mordaza) \n    \nHonduran journalist and artist Germán Andino’s harrowing work of graphic history depicts gang violence in the city of San Pedro Sula from personal and deeply humane perspective. The installation of his work as a mural in a central public space on our campus is intended to provoke conversation in place of silence. Much reporting on Central America depicts the problem of gangs and violence as far away and impossible to solve\, and the victims and perpetrators of this violence as essentially alien. With the hashtag #NoHumanIsAlien\, the artist and organizers invite reflection on a crisis of violence in Central America that has been exacerbated\, and in important ways created\, by policies originating in the United States. We hope to spark and enrich debate on our campus about current immigration policies\, including the cancellation of Temporary Protected Status for Salvadoran migrants and the asylum claims of tens of thousands of unaccompanied Central American children\, children who have fled the conditions depicted in Andino’s work. \n    \nThis exhibit\, a large-scale comic strip along the halls of the second floor of Mason Hall\, will be open for viewing from March 19 - April 6\, 2018. \n    \nJoin us for the opening reception with Germán Andino on March 26\, 2018 from 5:00 - 6:30 pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Border Crossers
DESCRIPTION:Students across campus—from LSA\, Engineering\, Art and Design\, and Information—will work with visiting artist Chico MacMurtrie during winter semester 2018 planning\, building\, and launching a 40-foot robotic sculpture that poetically explores the notion of borders and boundary conditions. The project\, led by the Institute for the Humanities\, symbolizes the humanities in action\, and the empowerment that can be achieved through working together\, overcoming obstacles and divides\, and discovering creative solutions.\n\nMacmurtrie is an award winning artist\, renowned internationally for his large-scale robotic sculpture\, whose work combines materiality and robotics\, the visceral and conceptual. His artist residency and interdisciplinary project \"Border Crossers\" encourages investigation of borders as constructed entities\, both embodying a simple curiosity to see what lies on the other side of a border (national\, architectural\, environmental\, etc.) and expression of a utopian desire to live in a world without borders.\n\nIn February\, MacMurtrie and the students will launch the robotic sculpture during two \"performances\" and MacMurtrie will give a special Penny W. Stamps Lecture. The gallery exhibition will include large-scale drawings which serve as plans and maps for MacMurtrie's visionary Border Crossers. Life-size robotic models will also be presented in the exhibition in conversation with the drawings. The models\, built by the all-student team with MacMurtrie's guidance\, are prototypes for the project\, offering preliminary steps in the workshop and the process towards realizing the large scale robotic sculpture.\n\nChico MacMurtrie is the Artistic Director of Amorphic Robot Works\, an interdisciplinary creative collective located in Brooklyn\, NY. MacMurtrie/ARW have received numerous awards for their experimental new media artworks\, including five grants from the National Endowment for the Arts\, the Andy Warhol Foundation Grant\, the Rockefeller Foundation Fellowship\, VIDA Life 11.0\, and Prix Ars Electronica. Chico MacMurtrie was awarded the Guggenheim Fellowship in Fine Arts in 2016.\n\nVisiting artist Chico MacMurtrie's residency and project is sponsored by the U-M Institute for the Humanities in collaboration with  U-M Museum of Art\, Michigan Robotics\, Michigan Engineering\, School of Information\, Penny Stamps Speaker Series\, Stamps School of Art and Design\, and ArtsEngin.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:EXHIBITION ON VIEW: DRAWING CODES: EXPERIMENTAL PROTOCOLS OF ARCHITECTURAL REPRESENTATION
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition on-view March 7 - 28\n\nEmerging technologies of design and production have opened up new ways to engage with traditional practices of architectural drawing. The twenty-four experimental drawings commissioned for this exhibition explore the impact of such technologies on the relationship between code and drawing: how rules and constraints inform the ways architects document\, analyze\, represent\, and design the built environment.\n\nEach drawing engages with at least one of the below prompts that begin to expand the notion of code as it relates to architectural design and representation:\n\nCode as generative constraint. Restrictive codes often govern what is permitted and what is prohibited. Examples of this include building codes\, urban codes\, zoning codes\, accessibility codes\, and energy codes. How can such constraints become generative\, opening up opportunities for design and representation?\nCode as language. A code can be understood as a set of rules\, conventions\, and traditions of syntax and grammar that structure the communication of information. The discipline of architecture similarly has its own language of typologies\, taxonomies\, and classifications. How can drawing engage with such architectural languages?\nCode as cipher. Encoded or encrypted messages are intended to hide or conceal information. Likewise\, architectural geometries\, forms\, spaces\, and assemblies are embedded with invisible organizational\, social\, political\, or economic logics that may not be immediately evident. How can drawing engage with these latent meanings and messages?\nCode as script. A code can be understood as a script or a recipe: a set of instructions to be executed or performed by a computer\, a robot\, or (in the case of theater or film)\, an actor. Scripts often produce unexpected discrepancies between the intent of the code and how it is executed. How can drawing explore these open-ended processes that may not have a defined outcome?\nThe invited architects were asked to conform to a set of strict rules: consistent dimension\, black & white medium\, and limiting the drawing to orthographic projection. The intent is for this consistency to emphasize the wide range of approaches to questions of technology\, design\, and representation. Yet within this considerable diversity of medium\, aesthetic sensibility\, and content\, several common qualities emerge. First is the unsure link between code and outcome: glitches\, bugs\, accidents\, anomalies\, but also loopholes\, deviations\, variances\, and departures that open up new potentials for architectural design and representation. Second is a mature embrace of technology not as a fetishized end game\, but as an instrument employed synthetically in concert with other architectural “tools of the trade.” And finally\, these drawings demonstrate how conventions of architectural representation remain fertile territory for invention and speculation.\n\nAt the show's initial run at CCA in San Francisco\, an adjacent gallery featured work by CCA Architecture students in Kinematic Code\, a course taught by Clayton Muhleman that has been exploring procedural and robotic drawing techniques.\n\nPanel discussion Tuesday\, March 6 at 6:00pm in the Art & Architecture Auditorium\, followed by opening reception in the College Gallery. Exhibition on view March 7 - March 28.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Interior Streets
DESCRIPTION:Join us March 9\, 3pm\, for a reception and Carl Wilson in conversation with our curator Amanda Krugliak.\n\nThe \"Interior Streets\" exhibition features the work of Detroit artist Carl Wilson\, known for his stark black and white linocut prints. The self-taught artist sees himself as a documentarian of lives easily ignored in a world obsessed with materialism and celebrity. His work frequently highlights not only the strength found in conquering the everyday and mundane\, but also the pain and defeat of those not able to rise to the occasion. His love of film noir and pulp fiction novels from the 1940s and '50s has led him to experiment with minimalist animation and comic book illustration. He embraces the whimsy hidden in the darkness.\n\nCarl is the recipient of a 2013 Kresge Artist Fellowship and is an alumni of the historic Yaddo Artists’ Community. During his residency there he carved the prints for\, and wrote the book\, Her Purse Smelled like Juicyfruit\, a recollection of his mother’s life. Carl was named 2014 guest curator of Detroit’s Carr Center. Also in 2014 Complex Online Magazine named him one of Twenty Detroit Artists You Should Know. He was featured in Essay'd\, a monthly publication about Detroit artists. 2017 sees the release of a comic book\, the first installment of his graphic novel\, Dead and Lost in Detroit.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection
DESCRIPTION:Gallery hours are 11 a.m.–5 p.m. Tuesday–Saturday and 12–5 p.m. Sunday\; galleries are closed on Mondays.\n\nThis exhibition celebrates Gertrude Kasle (1917–2016)\, a key figure in the formation of Detroit’s contemporary art community in the 1960s and 70s. A pioneering female gallerist\, Kasle provided midwest audiences with a venue in which to experience avant-garde art from centers like New York City\, while also supporting and exhibiting regional artists. Featuring a collection of paintings\, works on paper\, and sculptures from the height of the Abstract Expressionist movement through the early twenty-first century\, 'Exercising the Eye' speaks to the relationships Kasle fostered with local\, national\, and international artists and her appreciation for artistic expression and experimentation. Critical voices from the last fifty years include Philip Guston\, Jane Hammond\, Grace Hartigan\, Jasper Johns\, Michele Oka Doner\, and Robert Rauschenberg. The exhibition offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore a dynamic moment in Detroit’s cultural history and insight into Kasle’s love of looking and learning.\n\nLead support for 'Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Paul Rand
DESCRIPTION:Throughout the second half of the twentieth century\, pioneering art director and graphic designer Paul Rand (1914–1996) was celebrated for crafting the brand identities of such American corporate icons as ABC\, IBM\, UPS\, and Westinghouse. Rand considered the designer’s task to be the symbolic communication of a company’s character. This recent acquisition presentation features the poster Rand created as part of IBM’s THINK promotional campaign. The design is a rebus\, or visual puzzle\, wherein Rand cleverly transforms the letters of IBM’s logo into pictures. The whimsical use of symbols encourages viewers to interpret—or think—in order to comprehend the company’s intended message that it values “insight\,” “industriousness\,” and “motivation.” The poster is part of a larger recent gift of archival Paul Rand objects donated to UMMA by Franc Nunoo-Quarcoo—professor in the U-M Stamps School of Art and Design and published scholar on Paul Rand—and Maria Phillips.\n\nThis work was recently gifted to UMMA by Maria Phillips and Franc Nunoo-Quarcoo.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Patricia Piccinini: The Comforter
DESCRIPTION:Australian artist Patricia Piccinini’s strange\, hyperreal yet sentimental sculptures are often rooted in her speculative visualizations of future species—beings transformed by\, or even created by\, developments in genetic engineering and technology.  On view at UMMA\, \"The Comforter\" presents the likeness of a young girl whose appearance suggests a rare genetic condition causing excessive hair across her face and body. In her lap she tenderly cradles an udder-shaped\, eyeless creature—a possible reference to current experiments in genetically altered milk-producing animals. The encounter staged by the sculpture\, though curious and unexplained\, appears to be one of innocence and intimacy\, and suggests the potential for emotional connection between a diversity of beings. This theme is a common one for Piccinini\, whose work incorporates (often obliquely) ideas and questions about the ethical implications of scientific progress and the conflicts in our culture between the natural and the man-made.\n\nLead support for \"Patricia Piccinini: The Comforter\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece
DESCRIPTION:Since the 1980s\, British artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster have been known for their shadow sculptures built from materials as diverse as scrap metal\, garbage\, taxidermy\, and sex toys. When light is directed at these assemblages\, they project shadows that are exceptionally accurate and intricate representations of other things entirely.\n\n\"The Masterpiece\" (2014) is a shadow self-portrait of the artists created from metal casts of dead vermin they collected and welded together into a ball. From afar the casts appear to be a stunning abstract silver sculpture\; on closer inspection the disturbing menagerie of creatures emerges\, only to change form again—as a shadow on the wall—into a precise and elegant image that is astonishingly different from the objects that create it.\n\nLead support for \"Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece\" is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities. Additional generous support is provided by the Richard and Janet Miller Fund.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Health\, History\, Demography & Development (H2D2)
DESCRIPTION:Meera Mahadevan\n\nTitle: Turning on the Lights: State Capacity in Electricity Provisioning\n\nAbstract: State capacity is important for the provisioning of basic utilities like electricity. Yet\, corruption may plague the process\, leading to sub-optimal outcomes.  Using confidential data on the universe of electricity consumption and billing records from a large state in India\, I examine the relationship between greater state control and consumer welfare. With a close-election Regression Discontinuity Design\, I demonstrate how constituencies aligned with the state government experienced a differentially higher rate of satellite measured nighttime lights than constituencies that just lost. I develop new measures of corruption using electricity billing data and propose to study whether these methods were selectively used in certain constituencies. I will model the incentive structures for governments\, including ways to consolidate voter bases or gain new ones. Using exogenous price changes\, I plan to estimate demand in order to make welfare calculations to understand the impacts of state capacity in electricity provision. \n\nConnor Cole\n\nTitle: Short and Long-term Labor Market Effects of Program Eligibility Cut-Offs - Evidence from the Medicaid Program\n\nAbstract: This paper examines theory and empirical evidence regarding the effect of program eligibility cut-offs on household labor market outcomes. Many transfer programs feature eligibility cut-offs where there is a discontinuous shift in program eligibility or benefit levels depending on a family's income or assets.  While such eligibility cut-offs have been found in some programs to have clear contemporaneous labor supply effects\, there is little evidence on the long-term effects of exposure to such cut-offs on labor supply decisions\, family income or human capital accumulation. After demonstrating that the effects of these cut-offs depends on willingness to pay for the program in question\, discounting of future consumption and the costs of adjustment\, this paper turns to an empirical setting in the Medicaid program. In the 1990s\, a sharp discontinuity in Medicaid eligibility rules related to child birthdate was present in many states due to a federal mandate\, but it was made irrelevant by the creation of state children's health insurance programs later in the decade. This paper shows preliminary evidence that the discontinuity had a weak contemporaneous effect on a variety of labor market outcomes for parents\, but had no detectable long-term effects on these outcomes after the discontinuity was removed.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Tuesday Lecture Series | Resilience or Vulnerability? The Mixed Fate of Local Urbanizing Communities in China
DESCRIPTION:The urbanization process in China reveals the ultimate struggle between two forms of socialist public property of the land (State and Collective ownership)\, and at the same time\, a competition for the spoils of industrialization and urbanization between the state and the collectives (the villages). \n    \nDrawing mainly on cases in the peri-urban area of the Pearl River Delta\, this talk will discuss aspects of China’s rapid urbanization. It will explore strategies that village collectives have put in place to defend their economic\, social and cultural autonomy in the face of the desire of the state to both claim control of ever greater portions of the country’s collective land\, and to urbanize as much as possible of the population. \n    \nIn this process\, creative forms of local organization and institutional innovation in China have developed\, and some villages are thriving. The new strengths of the communities\, however\, also reveal new forms of vulnerability of the local communities. \n    \nLuigi Tomba is Director of the University of Sydney China Studies Centre. Before joining the Centre in 2017 he was for 15 years at the Australian National University\, most recently as the Associate Director of the Australian Centre on China in the World. His work has always been concerned with cities and with the consequences of urbanization. His most recent book The Government Next Door: Neighborhood Politics in Urban China\, was awarded the Association of Asian Studies 2016 Joseph Levenson Prize as best book on Post-1900 China.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Diversity\, Institutions\, and Economic Activity: Post-WWII Displacement in Poland
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: How do migration and the resulting cultural diversity affect social organization? Do institutional differences between diverse and homogeneous migrant communities influence economic development? This paper argues that heterogeneity and disruption of social ties not only impede informal cooperation\, but also increase demand for formal institutions. Greater reliance on formal institutions\, in turn\, facilitates arm’s length transactions and entrepreneurship. I test this argument using an original dataset on the size and composition of population uprooted by the post-WWII border changes in Poland. I find that localities settled by more homogeneous migrants were more successful in reestablishing private-order institutions that relied on informal enforcement\, such as volunteer fire brigades\, while localities populated by heterogeneous migrant population relied on formal third-party enforcement for the provision of public goods. Economically similar during state socialism\, more heterogeneous migrant communities registered higher incomes and entrepreneurship following the transition to a market economy.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | \nNew Phase Transitions in Atomically Thin Quantum Materials
DESCRIPTION:We have recently demonstrated an experimental platform to isolate 2D quantum materials that are unstable in the ambient environment. I will discuss our studies of the Weyl semimetal candidate\, 1T’-MoTe2\, and layered magnetic insulator\, CrI3\, in the atomically thin limit\, made possible using this technique. In MoTe2\, lowering dimensionality suppresses the inversion symmetric monoclinic phase\, driving the Weyl ground state up to and beyond room temperature. The different electronic structure of thin samples is studied by magnetotransport measurements at low temperature. In CrI3\, we observe a very large negative magnetoresistance effect comparable to colossal magnetoresistance in the manganites. I will explain the origin of this effect and discuss some new opportunities in spintronics incorporating 2D magnets.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Donia Human Rights Center Distinguished Lecture. White Rage: The Unspoken Truth of Our Nation's Divide
DESCRIPTION:Since the passage of the Thirteenth Amendment\, every time African Americans have made advances towards full participation in our democracy\, White reaction has fueled a deliberate and relentless rollback of their gains. The end of the Civil War and Reconstruction was greeted with the Black Codes and Jim Crow. Then there was the so-called Southern Strategy and the War on Drugs that disenfranchised millions of African Americans while propelling presidents Nixon and Reagan into the White House. Carol carefully links these and other historical flashpoints when social progress for African Americans was countered by deliberate and cleverly crafted opposition. She pulls back the veil that has long covered actions made in the name of protecting democracy\, fiscal responsibility\, or protection against fraud\, and renders visible the long lineage of White rage\, adding an important new dimension to the national conversation about race in America.\n\nCarol Anderson is professor of African American Studies at Emory University. She is the author of the critically-acclaimed \"White Rage\,\" published by Bloomsbury (2016). \n    \nProfessor Anderson is also the author of \"Eyes Off the Prize: The United Nations and the African-American Struggle for Human Rights\, 1944-1955\" (Cambridge University Press)\, which was awarded both the Gustavus Myers and Myrna Bernath Book Awards. Her book \"Bourgeois Radicals: The NAACP and the Struggle for Colonial Liberation\,1941-1960\" was published by Cambridge in 2014. \n    \nHer research has garnered substantial fellowships from the American Council of Learned Societies\, the Ford Foundation\, National Humanities Center\, Harvard University\, and the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History. \n    \nShe has also served on working groups dealing with race at Stanford’s Center for Applied Science and Behavioral Studies\, the Aspen Institute\, and the United Nations. In addition\, based on the strength and accessibility of her research\, the leadership at Amnesty International\, USA\, the American Civil Liberties Union\, the Ford Foundation\, and others have used \"Eyes Off the Prize\" to frame and examine their human rights work in the United States. \n    \nThis has also led to sought after commentary in Foreign Policy\, the Washington Post\, and CNN.com that places contemporary issues dealing with race\, human rights\, and politics in a historical perspective. Her Washington Post op-ed\, “White Rage\,” was the most widely shared for the paper in 2014. \n    \nProfessor Anderson was a member of the U.S. State Department’s Historical Advisory Committee and the Board of Directors of the Harry S. Truman Library Institute and the National Economic and Social Rights Initiative. \n    \nShe is a Phi Beta Kappa graduate of Miami University\, where she earned bachelor's and master's degrees in Political Science (International Relations) and History. She earned her PhD in history from The Ohio State University.\n\nThis event is co-sponsored by: Department of Afroamerican and African Studies\, Department of History\, Department of Sociology\, Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies\, Institute for the Humanities\, King-Chavez-Parks Visiting Professors Program and the Office of Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion (Office of the Provost)\, and the LSA Dean's Office

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Histrionics of the Pulpit: Disability\, Trans-Tonality\, and Religious Enthusiasm
DESCRIPTION:Early Evangelical cultures – the radical revivalists of the 18th century who sought to feel\, sensibly\, their new birth and warming of the heart – offer a surprising chapter in trans histories. While few of these religious radicals claimed explicit experiences that would fit any definition of contemporary “trans” identity\, they nonetheless embraced a new transformed tone of sensation and expression that transformed gender in revival spaces and devotional practices. The fever pitch of inspired preaching inflamed the passions\, and disordered the mind and the senses. Even the “Father of American Evangelicalism\,” George Whitfield\, described his conversion and preaching as a trans-gendering labor: he was a woman in travail\, “crying out” and “delivering” the New Birth to his hearers. Female preachers – especially women of color -- were deemed masculine in their visage and vocal tone as they exhorted and responded to spiritual conviction. Some specifically claimed spiritual genderlessness\, and performed this transformed divine identity through \"grum and shrill\" preaching tones. \n\nThese cultural debates over the “trans-ing” of religious tone persisted through the nineteenth century\, with fears of religious madness\, “feminizing” devotional practices\, and the political masculinization of evangelical women. In this sense\, trans-tonality helps investigate trans/gender history beyond contemporary questions of identity\, and poses new relationships between trans histories\, disability studies\, and religious cultures.\n\nSCOTT LARSON is a Lecturer III of American Culture at the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor. His research and teaching focus on transgender studies\, history of gender and sexuality\, and early American culture. He is a scholar of religion\, secularity\, and sexuality with a focus on the early Anglophone Atlantic world. His work has appeared in the Journal of Early American Studies and on Notches history of sexuality blog. He received a M.A. in Theology at Yale Divinity School and received his Ph.D. in American Studies at George Washington University in 2016.

SUMMARY:Other:Titration of a Single Molecule of DNA in a Protein Nanoreactor 
DESCRIPTION:                                                                                                                        Measurement of single molecule reactions can elucidate microscopic mechanisms that are often hidden from ensemble analysis. We describe the acid-base titration of a single DNA duplex confined within the α-hemolysin (α-HL) nanopore for up to 4 h\, while monitoring the ionic current through the nanopore. Modulation between two states in the current-time trace for duplexes containing the C:C mismatch in proximity to the latch constriction of α-HL is attributed to the base flipping of the C:C mismatch. As the pH is lowered\, the rate for the C:C mismatch to flip from the intra-helical state to the extra-helical state decreases\, while the rate for base flipping from the extra-helical state to the intra-helical state remains unchanged. Analysis of the pH-dependent kinetics of base flipping using a hidden Markov kinetic model demonstrates that protonation/deprotonation occurs while the base pair is in the intra-helical state.  We also demonstrate that the rate of protonation is limited by transport of H+ into the α-HL nanopore. Our experiments correspond to the longest single-molecule measurements performed using a nanopore\, and demonstrate its application in interrogating mechanisms of single-molecule reactions in confined geometries.\n                        \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nHenry White (University of Utah)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Visualizing Jewish Materialities
DESCRIPTION:Acclaimed artist and film-maker\, Yael Bartana stages encounters between history and fantasy\, prophecy and ritual\, questioning how the present is infiltrated by the past and vice versa. Bartana will present Inferno (2013)\, which depicts the building of the third Temple in São Paulo by a Brazilian Neo-Pentecostal Church. Inferno collapses ancient Middle Eastern history into a surreal present\, asking questions about monumental construction\, destruction\, and the weight of the past on material presence and imagined futures. After showing Inferno alongside clips from other works\, Bartana will engage in conversation about Jewish materialities and her methodology of “historical pre-enactment” with scholar of Hebrew and German literature and visual culture\, Maya Barzilai\, and scholar of ancient Jewish history and visuality\, Rachel Neis.\n\nIf you have a disability that requires a reasonable accommodation\, contact the Judaic Studies office at 734-763-9047 at least two weeks prior to the event.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Rainich Lecture Series: Arithmetic and locally symmetric spaces
DESCRIPTION:Langlands proposed an extraordinary correspondence between representations of Galois groups and automorphic forms\, which has deep\, and completely unexpected\, implications for the study of both objects. The simplest special case is Gauss' law of quadratic reciprocity. In the so called `regular\, self-dual' case much progress has been made in the roughly 40 years since Langlands made these conjectures. In these talks I will discuss recent progress in regular\, but non-self-dual case. In this case the automorphic forms in question can be realized as cohomology classes for arithmetic locally symmetric spaces\, i.e.\, quotients of symmetric spaces by discrete groups. Thus instead of the Langlands correspondence being a relationship between algebra and analysis\, it can be thought of as a relationship between algebra and topology. This realization of the Langlands correspondence is in many ways more concrete. It also admits to generalizations not envisioned by Langlands\, for instance relating mod p Galois representations with mod p cohomology classes.\n\nIn these talks I will describe the expected Langlands correspondence in the special cases of modular curves (an example of the `self-dual' case) and arithmetic hyperbolic 3-manifolds (an example of the `non-self-dual' case). I will try both to present the general picture and to give numerical examples. I will also describe various recent theorems in the latter case due to Lan\, Harris\, Thorne and myself\; to Peter Scholze\; and to Allen\, Calegari\, Caraiani\, Gee\, Helm\, Le Hung\, Newton\, Scholze\, Thorne and myself.\n\nReception for the Speaker will follow at 5:00PM in the Upper Atrium\, East Hall on March 20\, 2018\n\nSponsored by the Rainich Lecture Series

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Michigan Map Society: Map Drawing and Graphic Literacy in the Early Republic
DESCRIPTION:Join author and historian Susan Schulten as she delves into early American education and geography. In the decades after the American revolution\, schoolchildren routinely made maps. Map drawing and geography were particularly appropriate subjects for girls\, both a pathway to literacy and a means of demonstrating accomplishment. Many went on to become teachers themselves\, and carried these practices with them into an ever-growing national network of female academies and seminaries. By drawing their country\, students were making the nation manifest\, visualizing territory that most would never see firsthand. Map drawing was part of an intensely graphic education\, and a closer look at these charming\, detailed\, and elegant artifacts reveals a great deal about female education in the early republic.\n\nBooks will be available for sale and signing.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:How Will Americans React to Tax Cuts for the Wealthy?
DESCRIPTION:The U.S. Congress passed a ‘tax reform’ package as 2017 ended. Sixty percent of Americans believe that the GOP tax package will mostly help the wealthiest among us. But will this widespread disapproval translate into political costs or electoral losses for Republicans? \n\nThe answer may surprise you!  Social science research indicates the average citizen may tolerate this situation. Upcoming elections will test the findings of the research.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Writer to Writer w/ Susan Scott Parrish
DESCRIPTION:Sweetland Center for Writing's Writer to Writer series lets you hear directly from University of Michigan professors about their challenges\, processes\, and expectations as writers and also as readers of student writing. Each semester\, Writer to Writer pairs one esteemed University professor with a Sweetland faculty member for a conversation about writing. \n\nThis month Writer to Writer welcomes Susan Scott Parrish. Susan Scott Parrish is a Professor in the English Department and the Program in the Environment at UM. Her research addresses the interrelated issues of the environment\, race and knowledge-making in the Atlantic world from the seventeenth century up through the present\, with a particular emphasis on southern and Caribbean plantation zones. Her new book\, The Flood Year 1927: A Cultural History (Princeton UP\, 2017)\, examines how the most devastating\, and publicly absorbing\, US flood of the twentieth century took on meaning as it moved across media platforms\, across sectional divides and across the color line. Her first book\, American Curiosity: Cultures of Natural History in the Colonial British Atlantic World (UNCP\, 2006)\, is a study of how people in England and in British-controlled America conceived of—and made knowledge about—American nature within Atlantic scientific networks. This book won both Phi Beta Kappa’s Emerson Award and the Jamestown Prize.\n\nWriter to Writer takes place at the Literati bookstore and are broadcast live on WCBN radio. These conversations offer students a rare glimpse into the writing that professors do outside the classroom. You can hear instructors from various disciplines describe how they handle the same challenges student writers face\, from finding a thesis to managing deadlines. Professors will also discuss what they want from student writers in their courses\, and will take questions put forth by students and by other members of the University community. If there's anything you've ever wanted to ask a professor about writing\, Writer to Writer gives you the chance.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach- Out Series: Free Speech in Journalism
DESCRIPTION:A free press is essential for a healthy\, vibrant\, democratic society. Yet public trust in journalism has hit historic lows in recent years and journalists have recently been openly maligned for their work. This Teach-Out prompts participants to think critically about the roles and responsibilities of journalists in a free society. Why is the concept of a free press written into the First Amendment? How are the rights of journalists threatened? Is this a unique moment in history? How have new modes of reporting\, such as social media and citizen journalism\, made the press more vulnerable? And\, finally\, what are the broader societal implications of a restricted and diminished press?\n\nThis Teach-Out is part of the University of Michigan 2018 Speech and Inclusion Series that aims to recognize differing views on speech and inclusion\, to explore how those views play out in politics\, culture\, higher education\, sports\, and journalism\, and to engage in productive conversations to promote a positive campus environment and help the community more deeply understand these complicated issues.\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.

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 uses 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Beauty Meets My Mess: Mixed Media Collage
DESCRIPTION:Re Kielar was born in Chicago’s little Italy neighborhood with her grandparents upstairs and aunt and uncle across the courtyard. Her world was very Italian\, and when she walked outside\, she felt like she was leaving one country and entering another. Ever since she was a child\, she has loved paint and texture and seen beauty in the most unlikely places. Her artwork expresses human emotion through drawing in ink with rough papers\, old book pages\, metal embellishments and natural objects. Each abstract collage is coupled with her poetry\, so each piece is a walk into her soul. She hopes that by sharing that which is broken\, we can find healing spaces that knit our hearts together.

DESCRIPTION:Originally from Kansas City\, Tina West discovered photography while studying sculpture. She sees her photographs more as paintings\, and her still lifes have powerful cast shadows and frequent light play. Influenced by Gerhardt Richter and surrealism\, West’s images communicate a sense of being\, connecting not only the objects in the photographs\, but also the viewer and the photograph. She draws inspiration from the objects in her vast collection of unique treasures\, and she speaks to their unreserved timelessness with maturity and wonder. All of the images in this exhibit were created using instant film in a 4x5 view camera.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:LACS Exhibition. #NoHumanIsAlien: Germán Andino's The Habit of Silence
DESCRIPTION:Reception: An exhibition of Germán Andino’s graphic history: The Habit of Silence (El hábito de la mordaza) \n    \nHonduran journalist and artist Germán Andino’s harrowing work of graphic history depicts gang violence in the city of San Pedro Sula from personal and deeply humane perspective. The installation of his work as a mural in a central public space on our campus is intended to provoke conversation in place of silence. Much reporting on Central America depicts the problem of gangs and violence as far away and impossible to solve\, and the victims and perpetrators of this violence as essentially alien. With the hashtag #NoHumanIsAlien\, the artist and organizers invite reflection on a crisis of violence in Central America that has been exacerbated\, and in important ways created\, by policies originating in the United States. We hope to spark and enrich debate on our campus about current immigration policies\, including the cancellation of Temporary Protected Status for Salvadoran migrants and the asylum claims of tens of thousands of unaccompanied Central American children\, children who have fled the conditions depicted in Andino’s work. \n    \nThis exhibit\, a large-scale comic strip along the halls of the second floor of Mason Hall\, will be open for viewing from March 19 - April 6\, 2018. \n    \nJoin us for the opening reception with Germán Andino on March 26\, 2018 from 5:00 - 6:30 pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Life and Times of Lizzy Bennet
DESCRIPTION:As the 200th anniversary of Jane Austen’s death\, 2017 presents an opportunity to showcase not only significant early editions of Austen’s works held in the Special Collections Library\, but a much broader swath of materials revealing the historical milieu in which she and her characters lived.\n\nThe 1780s-1810s was a tumultuous time period in Britain with effects reaching to the present day\, and we are fortunate to be able to draw on a rich collection of sources that illustrate Austen’s historical moment\, from A Companion to the Ballroom and The Book of Common Prayer to An Essay on the Slavery and Commerce of the Human Species... and A Vindication of the Rights of Woman.\n\nThe Library will be closed December 23 to January 1.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Causal Inference in Education Research Seminar (CIERS): Do Students of Color and Low-Income Students Experience Lower-Quality Instruction? An Analysis of Panel Data From the MET Project
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nBuilding on prior research suggesting increases in the percent students of color and low-income students in a class is associated with overall lower quality instruction\, we use panel data to examine how teachers’ instruction changes given the different racial\, ethnic\, and socioeconomic status compositions of their classes. We analyze these associations along dimensions of the Classroom Assessment Scoring System. Results of fixed-effects regression analysis find that instruction is robust with respect to changes in classroom composition within teachers. This finding suggests that other factors such as teacher sorting or resource allocation likely account for the lower quality of instruction experienced by these student populations.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Border Crossers
DESCRIPTION:Students across campus—from LSA\, Engineering\, Art and Design\, and Information—will work with visiting artist Chico MacMurtrie during winter semester 2018 planning\, building\, and launching a 40-foot robotic sculpture that poetically explores the notion of borders and boundary conditions. The project\, led by the Institute for the Humanities\, symbolizes the humanities in action\, and the empowerment that can be achieved through working together\, overcoming obstacles and divides\, and discovering creative solutions.\n\nMacmurtrie is an award winning artist\, renowned internationally for his large-scale robotic sculpture\, whose work combines materiality and robotics\, the visceral and conceptual. His artist residency and interdisciplinary project \"Border Crossers\" encourages investigation of borders as constructed entities\, both embodying a simple curiosity to see what lies on the other side of a border (national\, architectural\, environmental\, etc.) and expression of a utopian desire to live in a world without borders.\n\nIn February\, MacMurtrie and the students will launch the robotic sculpture during two \"performances\" and MacMurtrie will give a special Penny W. Stamps Lecture. The gallery exhibition will include large-scale drawings which serve as plans and maps for MacMurtrie's visionary Border Crossers. Life-size robotic models will also be presented in the exhibition in conversation with the drawings. The models\, built by the all-student team with MacMurtrie's guidance\, are prototypes for the project\, offering preliminary steps in the workshop and the process towards realizing the large scale robotic sculpture.\n\nChico MacMurtrie is the Artistic Director of Amorphic Robot Works\, an interdisciplinary creative collective located in Brooklyn\, NY. MacMurtrie/ARW have received numerous awards for their experimental new media artworks\, including five grants from the National Endowment for the Arts\, the Andy Warhol Foundation Grant\, the Rockefeller Foundation Fellowship\, VIDA Life 11.0\, and Prix Ars Electronica. Chico MacMurtrie was awarded the Guggenheim Fellowship in Fine Arts in 2016.\n\nVisiting artist Chico MacMurtrie's residency and project is sponsored by the U-M Institute for the Humanities in collaboration with  U-M Museum of Art\, Michigan Robotics\, Michigan Engineering\, School of Information\, Penny Stamps Speaker Series\, Stamps School of Art and Design\, and ArtsEngin.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:EXHIBITION ON VIEW: DRAWING CODES: EXPERIMENTAL PROTOCOLS OF ARCHITECTURAL REPRESENTATION
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition on-view March 7 - 28\n\nEmerging technologies of design and production have opened up new ways to engage with traditional practices of architectural drawing. The twenty-four experimental drawings commissioned for this exhibition explore the impact of such technologies on the relationship between code and drawing: how rules and constraints inform the ways architects document\, analyze\, represent\, and design the built environment.\n\nEach drawing engages with at least one of the below prompts that begin to expand the notion of code as it relates to architectural design and representation:\n\nCode as generative constraint. Restrictive codes often govern what is permitted and what is prohibited. Examples of this include building codes\, urban codes\, zoning codes\, accessibility codes\, and energy codes. How can such constraints become generative\, opening up opportunities for design and representation?\nCode as language. A code can be understood as a set of rules\, conventions\, and traditions of syntax and grammar that structure the communication of information. The discipline of architecture similarly has its own language of typologies\, taxonomies\, and classifications. How can drawing engage with such architectural languages?\nCode as cipher. Encoded or encrypted messages are intended to hide or conceal information. Likewise\, architectural geometries\, forms\, spaces\, and assemblies are embedded with invisible organizational\, social\, political\, or economic logics that may not be immediately evident. How can drawing engage with these latent meanings and messages?\nCode as script. A code can be understood as a script or a recipe: a set of instructions to be executed or performed by a computer\, a robot\, or (in the case of theater or film)\, an actor. Scripts often produce unexpected discrepancies between the intent of the code and how it is executed. How can drawing explore these open-ended processes that may not have a defined outcome?\nThe invited architects were asked to conform to a set of strict rules: consistent dimension\, black & white medium\, and limiting the drawing to orthographic projection. The intent is for this consistency to emphasize the wide range of approaches to questions of technology\, design\, and representation. Yet within this considerable diversity of medium\, aesthetic sensibility\, and content\, several common qualities emerge. First is the unsure link between code and outcome: glitches\, bugs\, accidents\, anomalies\, but also loopholes\, deviations\, variances\, and departures that open up new potentials for architectural design and representation. Second is a mature embrace of technology not as a fetishized end game\, but as an instrument employed synthetically in concert with other architectural “tools of the trade.” And finally\, these drawings demonstrate how conventions of architectural representation remain fertile territory for invention and speculation.\n\nAt the show's initial run at CCA in San Francisco\, an adjacent gallery featured work by CCA Architecture students in Kinematic Code\, a course taught by Clayton Muhleman that has been exploring procedural and robotic drawing techniques.\n\nPanel discussion Tuesday\, March 6 at 6:00pm in the Art & Architecture Auditorium\, followed by opening reception in the College Gallery. Exhibition on view March 7 - March 28.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Interior Streets
DESCRIPTION:Join us March 9\, 3pm\, for a reception and Carl Wilson in conversation with our curator Amanda Krugliak.\n\nThe \"Interior Streets\" exhibition features the work of Detroit artist Carl Wilson\, known for his stark black and white linocut prints. The self-taught artist sees himself as a documentarian of lives easily ignored in a world obsessed with materialism and celebrity. His work frequently highlights not only the strength found in conquering the everyday and mundane\, but also the pain and defeat of those not able to rise to the occasion. His love of film noir and pulp fiction novels from the 1940s and '50s has led him to experiment with minimalist animation and comic book illustration. He embraces the whimsy hidden in the darkness.\n\nCarl is the recipient of a 2013 Kresge Artist Fellowship and is an alumni of the historic Yaddo Artists’ Community. During his residency there he carved the prints for\, and wrote the book\, Her Purse Smelled like Juicyfruit\, a recollection of his mother’s life. Carl was named 2014 guest curator of Detroit’s Carr Center. Also in 2014 Complex Online Magazine named him one of Twenty Detroit Artists You Should Know. He was featured in Essay'd\, a monthly publication about Detroit artists. 2017 sees the release of a comic book\, the first installment of his graphic novel\, Dead and Lost in Detroit.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Paul Rand
DESCRIPTION:Throughout the second half of the twentieth century\, pioneering art director and graphic designer Paul Rand (1914–1996) was celebrated for crafting the brand identities of such American corporate icons as ABC\, IBM\, UPS\, and Westinghouse. Rand considered the designer’s task to be the symbolic communication of a company’s character. This recent acquisition presentation features the poster Rand created as part of IBM’s THINK promotional campaign. The design is a rebus\, or visual puzzle\, wherein Rand cleverly transforms the letters of IBM’s logo into pictures. The whimsical use of symbols encourages viewers to interpret—or think—in order to comprehend the company’s intended message that it values “insight\,” “industriousness\,” and “motivation.” The poster is part of a larger recent gift of archival Paul Rand objects donated to UMMA by Franc Nunoo-Quarcoo—professor in the U-M Stamps School of Art and Design and published scholar on Paul Rand—and Maria Phillips.\n\nThis work was recently gifted to UMMA by Maria Phillips and Franc Nunoo-Quarcoo.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Patricia Piccinini: The Comforter
DESCRIPTION:Australian artist Patricia Piccinini’s strange\, hyperreal yet sentimental sculptures are often rooted in her speculative visualizations of future species—beings transformed by\, or even created by\, developments in genetic engineering and technology.  On view at UMMA\, \"The Comforter\" presents the likeness of a young girl whose appearance suggests a rare genetic condition causing excessive hair across her face and body. In her lap she tenderly cradles an udder-shaped\, eyeless creature—a possible reference to current experiments in genetically altered milk-producing animals. The encounter staged by the sculpture\, though curious and unexplained\, appears to be one of innocence and intimacy\, and suggests the potential for emotional connection between a diversity of beings. This theme is a common one for Piccinini\, whose work incorporates (often obliquely) ideas and questions about the ethical implications of scientific progress and the conflicts in our culture between the natural and the man-made.\n\nLead support for \"Patricia Piccinini: The Comforter\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece
DESCRIPTION:Since the 1980s\, British artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster have been known for their shadow sculptures built from materials as diverse as scrap metal\, garbage\, taxidermy\, and sex toys. When light is directed at these assemblages\, they project shadows that are exceptionally accurate and intricate representations of other things entirely.\n\n\"The Masterpiece\" (2014) is a shadow self-portrait of the artists created from metal casts of dead vermin they collected and welded together into a ball. From afar the casts appear to be a stunning abstract silver sculpture\; on closer inspection the disturbing menagerie of creatures emerges\, only to change form again—as a shadow on the wall—into a precise and elegant image that is astonishingly different from the objects that create it.\n\nLead support for \"Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece\" is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities. Additional generous support is provided by the Richard and Janet Miller Fund.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Foundational Course Initiative (FCI) Seminar Series - Creativity and Imagination are Foundational: EECS 183 and PoliSci 101
DESCRIPTION:In this session\, Mary Lou Dorf (Electrical Engineering and Computer Science\, EECS) and Mika LaVaque-Manty (Political Science) will share their experience with large courses in two very different fields that both tap into student creativity and imagination. They found that their classrooms were fundamentally transformed when they decided that the courses were not about specific factual content\, but rather about the skills students take away that are relevant to their lives and the world they inhabit. In their courses\, students rose to high expectations when instructors communicated confidence that students could reach those expectations and provided the resources needed. Furthermore\, with deliberate effort\, Dorf and LaVaque-Manty created explicitly inclusive courses to the benefit of all students. These kinds of changes make possible large courses that inspire students to say\, “This changed my life.”\n\nIn developing courses that tap into student creativity and imagination\, tools for teaching at scale (multiple choice quizzes\, auto-graded homework\, etc.) still play an important role.  In order to make the more labor-intensive aspects of courses work at large scale\, it’s essential to staff these courses with a team of instructors and to balance the automated with the artisan. The presenters will discuss how they achieved this balance.\n\nIn the second hour\, participants will engage in a discussion of how to apply the principles that promote creativity\, imagination\, and inclusivity in their own courses. In particular\, we will consider how to make content relevant to students’ lives and their world\, how to plan for and assemble the resources needed\, and how to set expectations that are high enough\, but not so high that students get lost. We’ll also address the reasonable fear of failing to provide an adequate educational experience for students when making radical changes to your approach to a course.\n\nLunch provided

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Brown Bag Series | Conformal truncation: A new method for studying strong-coupled QFTs
DESCRIPTION:I will present a new numerical method for studying strongly-coupled QFTs. The method is formulated for continuum spacetime of any dimension\, in real time and infinite volume\, and is thus complementary to other numerical methods\, such as the lattice. The method harnesses conformal symmetry\, but in a manner applicable to general\, non-conformal QFTs. Specifically\, the input is information about the UV CFT from which the QFT originates. The output is the physical IR QFT spectrum\, along with real-time\, infinite-volume correlation functions. I will discuss applications to 2D phi^4 theory\, where we have performed novel computations of correlation functions at any coupling\, such as the Zamolodchikov c-function along the full RG-flow. The 2D Ising model provides a highly-nontrivial cross-check of our numerics.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:JASON REBLANDO\, \"NEW DEAL UTOPIAS: MODEL CITIES OF THE GREAT DEPRESSION\"
DESCRIPTION:Artist Jason Reblando will give a talk about his recent photography book New Deal Utopias\, which explores three planned communities built by the U.S. government during the Great Depression. His photographs depict the built environments and landscapes of Greenbelt\, Maryland\; Greenhills\, Ohio\; and Greendale\, Wisconsin\, collectively known as \"Greenbelt Towns\,\" to evoke utopia both as an idea and a place in the American mind.\n\nIn the '30s\, the program was critiqued as \"socialistic\" and \"communistic\" by industrial and corporate leaders\, newspapers\, and members of Congress hostile to New Deal policies\, yet they made an indelible impression on urbanist ideas around the world. New Deal Utopias emphasizes that the Greenbelt Towns are an overlooked\, but crucial part of the American landscape\, as we continue to grapple with the shifting roles of housing\, nature\, and government in American life.\n\nThis public talk is in connection to Taubman College lecturer Sarah Rovang's Arch 603 course\, \"Fieldwork in American Modernism.\"

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Rainich Lecture Series: Galois theory and locally symmetric spaces
DESCRIPTION:Langlands proposed an extraordinary correspondence between representations of Galois groups and automorphic forms\, which has deep\, and completely unexpected\, implications for the study of both objects. The simplest special case is Gauss' law of quadratic reciprocity. In the so called `regular\, self-dual' case much progress has been made in the roughly 40 years since Langlands made these conjectures. In these talks I will discuss recent progress in regular\, but non-self-dual case. In this case the automorphic forms in question can be realized as cohomology classes for arithmetic locally symmetric spaces\, i.e.\, quotients of symmetric spaces by discrete groups. Thus instead of the Langlands correspondence being a relationship between algebra and analysis\, it can be thought of as a relationship between algebra and topology. This realization of the Langlands correspondence is in many ways more concrete. It also admits to generalizations not envisioned by Langlands\, for instance relating mod p Galois representations with mod p cohomology classes.\n\nIn these talks I will describe the expected Langlands correspondence in the special cases of modular curves (an example of the `self-dual' case) and arithmetic hyperbolic 3-manifolds (an example of the `non-self-dual' case). I will try both to present the general picture and to give numerical examples. I will also describe various recent theorems in the latter case due to Lan\, Harris\, Thorne and myself\; to Peter Scholze\; and to Allen\, Calegari\, Caraiani\, Gee\, Helm\, Le Hung\, Newton\, Scholze\, Thorne and myself.\n\nSponsored by the Rainich Lecture Series

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | An M.S.-to-Ph.D. Physics Bridge Program and Other Diversity and Student Support Enhancing Activities in the OSU Physics Graduate Program
DESCRIPTION:Lack of diversity in physics and other STEM PhD programs is a chronic issue.  In recent years\, less than 7% of domestic physics PhDs awarded nationwide have gone to students from underrepresented minority (URM) groups\, even though they make up 35% of the college age population.  Increasing diversity in a physics PhD program can be difficult\, especially if the program receives a low number of “traditionally qualified” URM applicants. Inspired by successful STEM Bridge programs at San Francisco State\, Fisk-Vanderbilt\, and Michigan\, the Ohio State University MS-to-PhD Physics Bridge Program (OSU-BP) was established in late 2012 with unanimous faculty support to increase the pool of qualified applicants from underrepresented groups\, and accepted its first cohort of four Bridge students in August 2013.  I will discuss activities and events that preceded and followed the creation of the OSU-BP\, which have coincided with an increase in the representation of URM students in the OSU Physics PhD program from less than 5% of domestic students in 2012 to almost 20% in autumn 2017. These include building a core group of committed faculty colleagues\, partnering with the American Physical Society Bridge Program for nationwide recruiting and other support\, working with colleagues in Physics Education Research (PER) to develop new graduate physics academic support programs\, and expanding holistic PhD admissions practices.  I will also discuss on-going and future efforts\, opportunities\, and obstacles for increasing diversity in graduate programs at OSU and elsewhere.  I would like to acknowledge the essential contributions of OSU Bridge Program Co-Director Jay Gupta\, PER colleagues Andrew Heckler and Chris Porter\, and many other colleagues who worked so hard to help these efforts succeed.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Professor Shinobu Kitayama to give the Robert B. Zajonc Collegiate Professorship in Psychology Inaugural Lecture - East and West:  A Cultural Psychological Perspective
DESCRIPTION:Please  join Dean Andrew Martin in honoring Professor Shinobu Kitayama on his appointment to the Robert B. Zajonc Collegiate Professor of Psychology.\n\nThe study of culture in psychology has come of age. I was fortunate to live this development through my professional career. Along with a number of colleagues\, I have explored cultural pluralism – the hypothesis that there are multiple equilibriums in human cultural adaptation while relying on epistemological positivism – a set of scientific methods employed to evaluate claims made on different cultures. One primary domain of interest has been a macroscopic comparison between (relatively interdependent) East and (relatively independent) West. The resulting field is now called cultural psychology. In this lecture\, I will discuss three core themes of the field and put forward new questions that have emerged on the horizon. Specifically\, the success of cultural psychology was initially anchored in (i) an experimental approach to document cultural variations in mentality. Subsequently\, it has been reinforced by both (ii) an effort to identify situational\, historical\, ecological\, and\, more recently\, evolutionary forces that shape the contemporary cultural variations in mentality and (iii) the adoption of neuroscience methods to assess the “depth” of cultural influences on mentality. Now\, the field is poised to address novel questions on the biological mechanisms that are recruited to support culture\, including neuroplasticity\, gene x culture co-evolution\, and epigenetic pathways of socio-cultural adaptation.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Distinguished Residency in Music Theory: Richard Cohn
DESCRIPTION:Modern analytic theory  partitions metric perturbations into displacements and grouping dissonances\, whose respective prototypes are the Renaissance pre-­cadential suspension and the Baroque pre-­cadential hemiola. But the two categories frequently conjoin to form more complex hybrids: many pre-­cadential hemiolas are inserted inside displacements\, and the Brahmsian hemiolic cycle inserts a displacement inside of a hemiola. These hybrid formations are related to the formal category of parenthesis usually traced back to Koch (1792)\, but they have a more historically distant origin\, in a 14th-­‐century conception of syncopation: as a dialectic  not of displacement (Verschiebung) and restoration \, but rather of fragmentation (Zerteilung) and reassembly. This paper suggests that this older conception of syncopation provides a framework for theorizing a variety of complex metric formations. Examples are provided from music of Beethoven\, Brahms\, Dvorak\, and West African drum ensembles.

SUMMARY:Performance:Anne Heaton & Alice Peacock
DESCRIPTION:Minnesota-born songwriter Alice Peacock writes highly personal material that takes inspiration from the introspective women of a generation ago: Joni Mitchell and Carole King. Her recent album \"Love Remains\" is a timely and timeless collection of novellas that brings to mind the joy simple things and the prospect of a better world. Alice's abiding belief in the power of music is a constant. “Can music change the world?/ Yeah\, I think it can\,” she sings in “Forgiveness\,” and she has a story to back it up. Boston's Anne Heaton has amassed awards and praise from critics\, fellow artists\, and fans with her songs that are by turns \"tender\, barbed\, and spiritual\" (Washington Post). Her graceful\, vulnerable\, and sometimes humorous pop-folk songs have captured audience imaginations for over a decade. Anne has opened for Jewel and played the Sundance Film Festival and Lilith Fair)\, and she was a featured artist on the New York Times Music Podcast. Anne's latest album is \"Dora\,\" a collaborative group of poems-turned-songs with poet Claire Clube.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:LACS Film Screening. Memories of Disintegration: Ibero-American Experimental Film (Ann Arbor Film Festival)
DESCRIPTION:As the profile of Ibero-American cinema\, the Spanish- and Portuguese-language films of Latin America\, continues to rise on the festival circuit\, a strong commitment to experimentation remains in the cinema emanating from the region. First-rate film schools in Cuba\, Argentina\, and Mexico\, among other nations\, are producing a new generation of filmmakers who eschew the proliferation of digital techniques\, returning to tactical analog modes of production (This program features work made on Video8\, Super 8\, 16mm\, Super 35mm\, and VHS). Playing with notions of self-reflexivity and nostalgia\, real and imagined\, these filmmakers test the boundaries of both narrative and documentary genres. Showcasing the diverse voices of these talented young artists\, each of the six films highlight the vision and ingenuity of Ibero-America. These shorts have screened at Cannes\, Toronto International Film Festival\, and New York Film Festival\, along with strong Latin American showcases such as the Morelia\, Mar del Plata\, Valdivia\, and Havana film festivals. Curated by Josh Gardner of Cinema Lamont\, Detroit.\n\nUse our discount code for 15% off tickets: AAFF56_UMLACS

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach Out Series: Sleep Deprivation: Habits\, Solutions\, and Strategies
DESCRIPTION:Sleep deprivation is a silent epidemic. Since the invention of the light bulb\, we have obtained less sleep than our ancestors\, prioritizing work\, school\, socializing\, sports\, screen time – just about everything – over sleep. Sleep is viewed as compressible\, something that can be made up at any time\, but rarely is. Most believe this poses little risk. Unfortunately\, they could not be more wrong.\n\nThe truth is\, an adequate amount of good-quality sleep is critical to good health. Lack of sleep leads to deadly crashes\, reduces productivity\, and harms quality of life. Insufficient or disordered sleep can increase risk for ADHD\, depression\, heart attack\, stroke\, arrhythmia\, heart failure\, and early death.\n\nThis Teach-Out can be your first step in doing something about sleep deprivation. Learn how sleep works\, why it is important\, and what bad sleep habits are. Hear solutions you can start tonight to sleep better for the rest of your life. Understand strategies to help family and friends improve their sleep. Learn to advocate for the sleep health of your community. This Teach-Out is intended to connect learners worldwide to the University of Michigan in conversation around sleep deprivation.\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.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach- Out Series: Free Speech in Journalism
DESCRIPTION:A free press is essential for a healthy\, vibrant\, democratic society. Yet public trust in journalism has hit historic lows in recent years and journalists have recently been openly maligned for their work. This Teach-Out prompts participants to think critically about the roles and responsibilities of journalists in a free society. Why is the concept of a free press written into the First Amendment? How are the rights of journalists threatened? Is this a unique moment in history? How have new modes of reporting\, such as social media and citizen journalism\, made the press more vulnerable? And\, finally\, what are the broader societal implications of a restricted and diminished press?\n\nThis Teach-Out is part of the University of Michigan 2018 Speech and Inclusion Series that aims to recognize differing views on speech and inclusion\, to explore how those views play out in politics\, culture\, higher education\, sports\, and journalism\, and to engage in productive conversations to promote a positive campus environment and help the community more deeply understand these complicated issues.\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.

DESCRIPTION:Re Kielar was born in Chicago’s little Italy neighborhood with her grandparents upstairs and aunt and uncle across the courtyard. Her world was very Italian\, and when she walked outside\, she felt like she was leaving one country and entering another. Ever since she was a child\, she has loved paint and texture and seen beauty in the most unlikely places. Her artwork expresses human emotion through drawing in ink with rough papers\, old book pages\, metal embellishments and natural objects. Each abstract collage is coupled with her poetry\, so each piece is a walk into her soul. She hopes that by sharing that which is broken\, we can find healing spaces that knit our hearts together.

Her landscape prints – made from impressions on paper from carved and inked woodblocks – have received critical acclaim in both Japan and the US\; the Autumn\, Sleeping Bear Dunes series is in the permanent collection of the Detroit Institute of Arts. Brodbeck applies principles of Japanese aesthetics\, including subtlety\, austerity and naturalness\, to her art practice in Kalamazoo\, Michigan. Many people have felt a strong sense of place in her work. Still more connect with the sense of calm\, contemplation and deep reflection that place can evoke.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents On Blue: Photographic Meditations
DESCRIPTION:Loosely based on the concept of the early 20th century group f64\, the f8collective is composed of female contemporary Chicago photographers who all happen to have strong family ties to Michigan. The group of images on exhibit is from a project called On Blue: A Meditation. Blue is… tranquil pools of clear water\; languid clouds drifting in azure skies\; mood indigo\; cobalt glass\; cerulean blue eyes\; sapphire cornflowers\; poignant music\, emotion and sentiment. Blue is a rare color in nature\, yet found in the largest things such as sea\, lake and sky\, as well as some of the smallest: sapphires\, forget-me-nots and delicate tropical butterflies.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Timeless Instants: Still Life Photographs
DESCRIPTION:Originally from Kansas City\, Tina West discovered photography while studying sculpture. She sees her photographs more as paintings\, and her still lifes have powerful cast shadows and frequent light play. Influenced by Gerhardt Richter and surrealism\, West’s images communicate a sense of being\, connecting not only the objects in the photographs\, but also the viewer and the photograph. She draws inspiration from the objects in her vast collection of unique treasures\, and she speaks to their unreserved timelessness with maturity and wonder. All of the images in this exhibit were created using instant film in a 4x5 view camera.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:LACS Exhibition. #NoHumanIsAlien: Germán Andino's The Habit of Silence
DESCRIPTION:Reception: An exhibition of Germán Andino’s graphic history: The Habit of Silence (El hábito de la mordaza) \n    \nHonduran journalist and artist Germán Andino’s harrowing work of graphic history depicts gang violence in the city of San Pedro Sula from personal and deeply humane perspective. The installation of his work as a mural in a central public space on our campus is intended to provoke conversation in place of silence. Much reporting on Central America depicts the problem of gangs and violence as far away and impossible to solve\, and the victims and perpetrators of this violence as essentially alien. With the hashtag #NoHumanIsAlien\, the artist and organizers invite reflection on a crisis of violence in Central America that has been exacerbated\, and in important ways created\, by policies originating in the United States. We hope to spark and enrich debate on our campus about current immigration policies\, including the cancellation of Temporary Protected Status for Salvadoran migrants and the asylum claims of tens of thousands of unaccompanied Central American children\, children who have fled the conditions depicted in Andino’s work. \n    \nThis exhibit\, a large-scale comic strip along the halls of the second floor of Mason Hall\, will be open for viewing from March 19 - April 6\, 2018. \n    \nJoin us for the opening reception with Germán Andino on March 26\, 2018 from 5:00 - 6:30 pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Border Crossers
DESCRIPTION:Students across campus—from LSA\, Engineering\, Art and Design\, and Information—will work with visiting artist Chico MacMurtrie during winter semester 2018 planning\, building\, and launching a 40-foot robotic sculpture that poetically explores the notion of borders and boundary conditions. The project\, led by the Institute for the Humanities\, symbolizes the humanities in action\, and the empowerment that can be achieved through working together\, overcoming obstacles and divides\, and discovering creative solutions.\n\nMacmurtrie is an award winning artist\, renowned internationally for his large-scale robotic sculpture\, whose work combines materiality and robotics\, the visceral and conceptual. His artist residency and interdisciplinary project \"Border Crossers\" encourages investigation of borders as constructed entities\, both embodying a simple curiosity to see what lies on the other side of a border (national\, architectural\, environmental\, etc.) and expression of a utopian desire to live in a world without borders.\n\nIn February\, MacMurtrie and the students will launch the robotic sculpture during two \"performances\" and MacMurtrie will give a special Penny W. Stamps Lecture. The gallery exhibition will include large-scale drawings which serve as plans and maps for MacMurtrie's visionary Border Crossers. Life-size robotic models will also be presented in the exhibition in conversation with the drawings. The models\, built by the all-student team with MacMurtrie's guidance\, are prototypes for the project\, offering preliminary steps in the workshop and the process towards realizing the large scale robotic sculpture.\n\nChico MacMurtrie is the Artistic Director of Amorphic Robot Works\, an interdisciplinary creative collective located in Brooklyn\, NY. MacMurtrie/ARW have received numerous awards for their experimental new media artworks\, including five grants from the National Endowment for the Arts\, the Andy Warhol Foundation Grant\, the Rockefeller Foundation Fellowship\, VIDA Life 11.0\, and Prix Ars Electronica. Chico MacMurtrie was awarded the Guggenheim Fellowship in Fine Arts in 2016.\n\nVisiting artist Chico MacMurtrie's residency and project is sponsored by the U-M Institute for the Humanities in collaboration with  U-M Museum of Art\, Michigan Robotics\, Michigan Engineering\, School of Information\, Penny Stamps Speaker Series\, Stamps School of Art and Design\, and ArtsEngin.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:EXHIBITION ON VIEW: DRAWING CODES: EXPERIMENTAL PROTOCOLS OF ARCHITECTURAL REPRESENTATION
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition on-view March 7 - 28\n\nEmerging technologies of design and production have opened up new ways to engage with traditional practices of architectural drawing. The twenty-four experimental drawings commissioned for this exhibition explore the impact of such technologies on the relationship between code and drawing: how rules and constraints inform the ways architects document\, analyze\, represent\, and design the built environment.\n\nEach drawing engages with at least one of the below prompts that begin to expand the notion of code as it relates to architectural design and representation:\n\nCode as generative constraint. Restrictive codes often govern what is permitted and what is prohibited. Examples of this include building codes\, urban codes\, zoning codes\, accessibility codes\, and energy codes. How can such constraints become generative\, opening up opportunities for design and representation?\nCode as language. A code can be understood as a set of rules\, conventions\, and traditions of syntax and grammar that structure the communication of information. The discipline of architecture similarly has its own language of typologies\, taxonomies\, and classifications. How can drawing engage with such architectural languages?\nCode as cipher. Encoded or encrypted messages are intended to hide or conceal information. Likewise\, architectural geometries\, forms\, spaces\, and assemblies are embedded with invisible organizational\, social\, political\, or economic logics that may not be immediately evident. How can drawing engage with these latent meanings and messages?\nCode as script. A code can be understood as a script or a recipe: a set of instructions to be executed or performed by a computer\, a robot\, or (in the case of theater or film)\, an actor. Scripts often produce unexpected discrepancies between the intent of the code and how it is executed. How can drawing explore these open-ended processes that may not have a defined outcome?\nThe invited architects were asked to conform to a set of strict rules: consistent dimension\, black & white medium\, and limiting the drawing to orthographic projection. The intent is for this consistency to emphasize the wide range of approaches to questions of technology\, design\, and representation. Yet within this considerable diversity of medium\, aesthetic sensibility\, and content\, several common qualities emerge. First is the unsure link between code and outcome: glitches\, bugs\, accidents\, anomalies\, but also loopholes\, deviations\, variances\, and departures that open up new potentials for architectural design and representation. Second is a mature embrace of technology not as a fetishized end game\, but as an instrument employed synthetically in concert with other architectural “tools of the trade.” And finally\, these drawings demonstrate how conventions of architectural representation remain fertile territory for invention and speculation.\n\nAt the show's initial run at CCA in San Francisco\, an adjacent gallery featured work by CCA Architecture students in Kinematic Code\, a course taught by Clayton Muhleman that has been exploring procedural and robotic drawing techniques.\n\nPanel discussion Tuesday\, March 6 at 6:00pm in the Art & Architecture Auditorium\, followed by opening reception in the College Gallery. Exhibition on view March 7 - March 28.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Interior Streets
DESCRIPTION:Join us March 9\, 3pm\, for a reception and Carl Wilson in conversation with our curator Amanda Krugliak.\n\nThe \"Interior Streets\" exhibition features the work of Detroit artist Carl Wilson\, known for his stark black and white linocut prints. The self-taught artist sees himself as a documentarian of lives easily ignored in a world obsessed with materialism and celebrity. His work frequently highlights not only the strength found in conquering the everyday and mundane\, but also the pain and defeat of those not able to rise to the occasion. His love of film noir and pulp fiction novels from the 1940s and '50s has led him to experiment with minimalist animation and comic book illustration. He embraces the whimsy hidden in the darkness.\n\nCarl is the recipient of a 2013 Kresge Artist Fellowship and is an alumni of the historic Yaddo Artists’ Community. During his residency there he carved the prints for\, and wrote the book\, Her Purse Smelled like Juicyfruit\, a recollection of his mother’s life. Carl was named 2014 guest curator of Detroit’s Carr Center. Also in 2014 Complex Online Magazine named him one of Twenty Detroit Artists You Should Know. He was featured in Essay'd\, a monthly publication about Detroit artists. 2017 sees the release of a comic book\, the first installment of his graphic novel\, Dead and Lost in Detroit.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LOOKING INTO THE MINDS OF MANAGERS AND CONSUMERS
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Bagozzi is the Dwight F. Benton Professor of Behavioral Science in \nManagement at the Ross School of Business\, University of Michigan. He specializes in basic research into human emotions\, decision-making\, social identity\, ethics\, and action. This work has been applied to the study of consumers\, patients\, doctors\, salespersons\, managers\, military officers\, and organizations. Recently he has investigated biological bases of manager and consumer behavior by use of fMRI and genetic analyses to study mental behavior.     \n\nWe will explore what goes on in our brains (as consumers and managers) when we make decisions. Three universal\, fundamental mental phenomena will be examined: theory of mind processes (based on research into autism)\, human empathy (as related to mirror neurons in the brain)\, and the underpinnings of the Machiavellian (i.e.\, psychopathic) mind in business and politics. Time permitting\, we will consider how our genes operate\, in conjunction with environmental and psychological triggers\, to influence our behavior.\n\nThis is the third in a six-lecture series. The subject is Behavioral and Social Sciences: Real World Applications. The next lecture will be March 29\, 2018. The title is The Why and How of Behavioral Economic Strategies to Promote Healthy Decisions.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection
DESCRIPTION:Gallery hours are 11 a.m.–5 p.m. Tuesday–Saturday and 12–5 p.m. Sunday\; galleries are closed on Mondays.\n\nThis exhibition celebrates Gertrude Kasle (1917–2016)\, a key figure in the formation of Detroit’s contemporary art community in the 1960s and 70s. A pioneering female gallerist\, Kasle provided midwest audiences with a venue in which to experience avant-garde art from centers like New York City\, while also supporting and exhibiting regional artists. Featuring a collection of paintings\, works on paper\, and sculptures from the height of the Abstract Expressionist movement through the early twenty-first century\, 'Exercising the Eye' speaks to the relationships Kasle fostered with local\, national\, and international artists and her appreciation for artistic expression and experimentation. Critical voices from the last fifty years include Philip Guston\, Jane Hammond\, Grace Hartigan\, Jasper Johns\, Michele Oka Doner\, and Robert Rauschenberg. The exhibition offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore a dynamic moment in Detroit’s cultural history and insight into Kasle’s love of looking and learning.\n\nLead support for 'Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Paul Rand
DESCRIPTION:Throughout the second half of the twentieth century\, pioneering art director and graphic designer Paul Rand (1914–1996) was celebrated for crafting the brand identities of such American corporate icons as ABC\, IBM\, UPS\, and Westinghouse. Rand considered the designer’s task to be the symbolic communication of a company’s character. This recent acquisition presentation features the poster Rand created as part of IBM’s THINK promotional campaign. The design is a rebus\, or visual puzzle\, wherein Rand cleverly transforms the letters of IBM’s logo into pictures. The whimsical use of symbols encourages viewers to interpret—or think—in order to comprehend the company’s intended message that it values “insight\,” “industriousness\,” and “motivation.” The poster is part of a larger recent gift of archival Paul Rand objects donated to UMMA by Franc Nunoo-Quarcoo—professor in the U-M Stamps School of Art and Design and published scholar on Paul Rand—and Maria Phillips.\n\nThis work was recently gifted to UMMA by Maria Phillips and Franc Nunoo-Quarcoo.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Patricia Piccinini: The Comforter
DESCRIPTION:Australian artist Patricia Piccinini’s strange\, hyperreal yet sentimental sculptures are often rooted in her speculative visualizations of future species—beings transformed by\, or even created by\, developments in genetic engineering and technology.  On view at UMMA\, \"The Comforter\" presents the likeness of a young girl whose appearance suggests a rare genetic condition causing excessive hair across her face and body. In her lap she tenderly cradles an udder-shaped\, eyeless creature—a possible reference to current experiments in genetically altered milk-producing animals. The encounter staged by the sculpture\, though curious and unexplained\, appears to be one of innocence and intimacy\, and suggests the potential for emotional connection between a diversity of beings. This theme is a common one for Piccinini\, whose work incorporates (often obliquely) ideas and questions about the ethical implications of scientific progress and the conflicts in our culture between the natural and the man-made.\n\nLead support for \"Patricia Piccinini: The Comforter\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece
DESCRIPTION:Since the 1980s\, British artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster have been known for their shadow sculptures built from materials as diverse as scrap metal\, garbage\, taxidermy\, and sex toys. When light is directed at these assemblages\, they project shadows that are exceptionally accurate and intricate representations of other things entirely.\n\n\"The Masterpiece\" (2014) is a shadow self-portrait of the artists created from metal casts of dead vermin they collected and welded together into a ball. From afar the casts appear to be a stunning abstract silver sculpture\; on closer inspection the disturbing menagerie of creatures emerges\, only to change form again—as a shadow on the wall—into a precise and elegant image that is astonishingly different from the objects that create it.\n\nLead support for \"Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece\" is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities. Additional generous support is provided by the Richard and Janet Miller Fund.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Effects of invasions on the structure\, stability and evolution of complex food webs
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: A critically important challenge in theoretical ecology is to better predict responses of ecological networks to global change\, especially responses to increasing rates of species invasions. Invaders have been widely observed to trigger changes in species’ interactions and abundances and even cause catastrophic extinction cascades of native species. Classical food web models have focused on explaining and predicting such ecological responses on relatively short time scales. However\, these models typically neglect changes in selection pressure on native species caused by the invaders and their subsequent effects on the structure and stability of food webs on longer time scales. I address these issues using an eco-evolutionary model containing both invasion and mutation events. It integrates classical assembly models\, which describe the emergence of a food web via sequential invasions\, with so-called evolutionary food web models or large community evolution models\, which describe food web emergence via speciation due to small mutation steps. The model uses body masses and diets as the key traits that determine metabolic rates and species interactions. I vary the frequency of invasion events in relation to speciation events and the relatedness between native species and invaders. I then analyze the size of the emerging network (in terms of total biomass and number of morphs or ‘species’)\, its ecological and evolutionary stability\, and its species turnover pattern. The results show that food webs evolve most diverse and accumulate the most biomass when being exposed to frequent invasions of species similar to native species. The system is also most stable in such invasion context\, both evolutionary (i.e.\, lower variability in the number of morphs/species over time) and ecologically (i.e.\, lower variability in total biomass over time)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AE585 Graduate Seminar Series - Advances in Structural and Aeroelastic Design Optimization for Aerospace Vehicles
DESCRIPTION:Graeme J. Kennedy\, PhD\nAssistant Professor\nSchool of Aerospace Engineering\nGeorgia Institute of Technology\n\nThe application of optimization algorithms to aerospace vehicle design offers the potential to extract performance benefits in highly-coupled systems. Design optimization tools can be used to better understand complex trade spaces and to compare optimized concepts to achieve an unbiased comparison. However\, large-scale design spaces produced from high-fidelity simulations place new computational demands on optimization tools. This presentation will address the development and application of new optimization algorithms and techniques\, focusing on structural and aeroelastic design cases. These applications include the development of advanced topology optimization algorithms for aerospace structures\, and the development of an aeroelastic design optimization tool\, called FUNtoFEM\, for fixed wing and rotorcraft applications.\n\nAbout the speaker...\nGraeme Kennedy is an Assistant Professor in the School of Aerospace Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology\, where he leads his research group focused on developing novel design optimization methods for structural and multidisciplinary aerospace systems. Before joining the Georgia Tech faculty\, he worked as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the University of Michigan in the Multidisciplinary Design Optimization lab. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Toronto Institute for Aerospace Studies (UTIAS) under the supervision of Prof. Joaquim R.R.A. Martins in 2012 and his M.A.Sc. from UTIAS under the supervision of Prof. Jorn Hansen in 2007. He received his undergraduate degree in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Toronto in 2005. A complete list of papers and ongoing projects is available on Dr. Kennedy's website: http://gkennedy.gatech.edu/.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:BME 500 Seminar: Angela Pannier\, Ph.D.
DESCRIPTION:Angela K. Pannier\, Ph.D.\nAssociate Professor\, Biological Systems Engineering Department\nUniversity of Nebraska\n\n“Priming Nonviral Gene Delivery for Stem Cell and Vaccination Applications”\n \nAbstract:\nGene delivery is the delivery of exogenous genetic material to cells with the goal of altering molecular physiology to produce a cellular or systemic phenotype change. Unlike many conventional drugs\, free nucleic acids are not readily internalized by eukaryotic cells due to size and charge\, but many methods of their delivery to cells are the subject of intense research\, including viral and non-viral methods. Non-viral gene delivery methods are much less efficient than viral methods\, but flexibility in genetic cargo\, ease of transfection protocols\, and lack of safety issues make them advantageous alternatives. Strategies to engineer more effective non-viral gene delivery materials and methods are highly dependent on variable parameters such as cell type and application\, and have focused on engineering increasingly more complex lipid and polymer vectors\, but the rational design of new technologies is limited by our current knowledge of several key cellular barriers. To expand our knowledge of the “biology of transfection” our group has made efforts to understand the process of gene delivery\, using diverse tools include modeling\, gene expression analysis\, high throughput screening\, cell priming\, and the development of new material systems\, for stem cell and vaccination applications.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Development Seminar: How does the efficiency of skilled labor vary across rich and poor countries? An analysis using industry and trade data
DESCRIPTION:This paper estimates the relative efficiency of skilled and unskilled workers across countries using a new method that relies on disaggregated industry and trade data. I document that the share of exports in skill-intensive industries rises sharply with income levels. Interpreted through the lens of a gravity model\, this pattern suggests that rich countries have low relative unit production costs in skill-intensive industries. For standard trade elasticities\, the implied differences in the effective costs of skilled labor services across countries cannot be rationalized by differences in the skilled wage premia\, which leads me to infer that skilled labor is relatively efficient in rich countries compared to in poor countries. Integrating these findings into a development accounting exercise for the manufacturing sector\, I find that accounting for skill-specific efficiency differences reduces the size of skill-neutral labor efficiency differences: the difference in skill-neutral TFP differences between rich and poor countries in manufacturing falls from a factor of 4.3 to a factor of 2.6.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar: Avian speciation in the tropics
DESCRIPTION:My talk will summarize our efforts to understand the evolutionary factors underlying the extraordinary richness of Neotropical bird species. I will present data collected at multiple taxonomic scales\, including phylogenomic analyses of large bird radiations and fine-scale population genetic analyses of single species. These data highlight the importance of the physical landscape in driving speciation\, but\, contrary to much biogeographic theory\, provide scant evidence that specific events in Earth history have influenced speciation in a unified fashion. Instead\, the relative timing of speciation events within lineages is largely idiosyncratic and influenced primarily by natural history characteristics of the species\, such as dispersal ability.\n\nView YouTube video of seminar: https://youtu.be/V55JU1ZnLHM

SUMMARY:Other:Of comprehension and text: Studies of language and learning chemistry
DESCRIPTION:                                                                                                                        While mathematical ability has long been implicated as crucial for learning chemistry\, language ability remains largely uninvestigated. This contribution explores correlations between language comprehension and performance in general chemistry\, as well as how general chemistry students interact with text-based learning materials. Structure Building\, a model that describes how linguistic information is incorporated into one’s existing knowledge base\, guides our work. We demonstrate that comprehension ability correlates strongly with chemistry course performance. An examination of variables predicted to interact by the Structure Building Framework suggests that high comprehension ability may be sufficient to compensate for low prior knowledge. We also report the design and analysis of a multiple-testing intervention strategy that differentially aids those of low comprehension ability. The effect of question type (multiple choice versus elaborative interrogation) on this multiple-quizzing strategy has also been investigated. With regard to text-based learning materials\, we carried out linguistic analyses of popular general chemistry texts\, the results of which suggest that these materials are appropriate for only low-knowledge students. Further studies probing the extent to which students benefit from reading texts on chemical bonding and redox concepts revealed an expertise reversal effect\, corroborating these textual analyses.                        \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nSam Pazicni (University of New Hampshire)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Populism\, Pluralism\, and Ordinary People
DESCRIPTION:Benjamin McKean is a political theorist whose research concerns global justice\, populism\, and the relationship between theory and practice. His work has been published in the American Political Science Review\, Political Theory\, and the Journal of Politics. His manuscript _Disposed to Justice_ argues that people subject to unjust institutions and practices should be disposed to solidarity with the others who are also subject to them\, even when those relations cross state borders. A neoliberal global economy characterized by inequality\, financialization\, and transnational supply chains creates a widely shared interest in resisting injustice\, grounded in the way that existing institutions impair freedom. Identifying this interest as the basis for solidarity provides a new perspective not only on the possibility of achieving global justice\, but on the nature and limits of contemporary egalitarian liberalism. He is also at work on a second book project tentatively titled _Political Freedom and Resentment_ about the relationship between democracy and populism

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Law and Economics Workshop: Alpha Duties: The Search for Excess Returns and Appropriate Fiduciary Duties
DESCRIPTION:Modern finance theory and investment practice have shifted toward “passive investing.” The current consensus is that most savers should invest in mutual funds or ETFs that are (i) welldiversified\, (ii) low-cost\, and (iii) expose one’s portfolio to age-appropriate stock-market risk. The law governing trustees\, broker-dealers\, 401(k) plan managers and other investment fiduciaries has evolved to push them gently toward this consensus. But these laws still provide broad scope for fiduciaries to recommend that clients invest instead in specific assets which they believe will produce “alpha” by outperforming the market. Seeking alpha comes at a cost\, however\, in giving up some of the benefits of the well-diversified\, low-cost\, appropriate risk baseline. Too little attention has been given in fiduciary law to this tradeoff and thus to when seeking alpha is prudent and beneficial for savers\, and when it is not.\n\nThis Article begins to fill that gap by making two contributions. First\, we provide the first benchmark estimates of how much alpha is required before ordinary investors would be better off departing from the consensus. For example\, we estimate that a person of average risk aversion would annually need to beat the market by (i.e.\, obtain alpha of) between 5% and 15% before being willing to entirely forego the benefits of diversification and hold an individual stock (and that during a financial crisis a person would need an annual alpha between 9% and 18%). Second\, we consider the implications of our results for the various branches of law governing investment fiduciaries. We propose generally that fiduciaries should be informed about these alpha tradeoffs and explain them to their clients before recommending (or executing) investments that deviate from the low-cost\, well-diversified\, age-appropriate exposure standard. We argue that through new technology this kind of information can be given to retirement savers and others at quite low cost. Our results also have a variety of more specific applications. For example\, our work shows that the value of diversification increases during periods of market upheaval\, and therefore duty to diversify of trustees of personal trusts and of employee retirement plans should likewise strengthen during such periods.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Rainich Lecture Series: Modularity lifting theorems in the setting of locally symmetric spaces
DESCRIPTION:Calegari and Geraghty described an approach to modularity lifting theorems in the setting of locally symmetric spaces\, where the basic numerology of the Taylor-Wiles method seemed to break down. A group of 10 mathematicians (Allen\, Calegari\, Caraiani\, Gee\, Helm\, Le Hung\, Newton\, Scholze\, Thorne and myself) were recently able to get this approach to work\, the key ingredient being to systematically work in a derived framework. As applications we were able to prove the meromorphic continuation and functional equation of the L-series of elliptic curves over CM fields and to prove the Ramanujan conjecture for the action of Hecke operators on the cohomology of arithmetic hyperbolic three manifolds. I will describe these results and give an outline of the proof.\n\nSponsored by the Rainich Lecture Series

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LEGACIES OF EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT: LOOKING BACK AND MOVING FORWARD
DESCRIPTION:In a collaboration with the Temple Hoyne Buell Center for the Study of American Architecture at Columbia University and Louise Seamster at the University of Tennessee\, Knoxville\, this Detroit panel discussion will consider some of the recent history of Emergency Management in Michigan. \n\nSince the 1980s\, Michigan has been the national epicenter of “emergency management”—a project that allows state governors to declare “financial emergencies” in cities and thereby replace democratically elected officials with appointed emergency financial managers. In the three decades that emergency management has unfolded in Michigan\, its cities have seen the privatization of public institutions\, disinvestment in public infrastructures\, and other acts of violence against the public sphere. Extending long histories of the extraction of labor\, land\, and wealth from communities of color in the United States\, emergency management has been focused on black majority cities\; in the last 10 years\, around 52% of Michigan’s African-American residents have been disenfranchised by emergency management as compared to 3% of white Michiganders.\n\nOn December 14\, 2017\, Governor Rick Snyder announced that there were\, at the moment\, no emergency managers governing any of Michigan’s cities. That announcement prompts questions about the ongoing consequences and legacies of emergency management—a project that has become dormant rather than invalidated. What has the impact of emergency management been on Michigan’s cities? What lessons should be learned from these experiences? How can these lessons inform resistance in other spaces of threatened or ongoing dedemocratization?\n\nReception: 5:00pm\n\nPanel Discussion: 6:00pm\nMark Fancher\, Racial Justice Project\, ACLU of Michigan\nCatherine Coleman Flowers: Alabama Center for Rural Enterprise\nShea Howell\, The James and Grace Lee Boggs Center\nHelen Moore\, Keep the Vote\nLouise Seamster\, The University of Tennessee Knoxville\nModerated by: Andrew Herscher\, The University of Michigan\n\nOn Friday\, March 23rd\, a related workshop will be convened in Ann Arbor. This conversation will take up some of the issues presented on Thursday\, considering Emergency Management as not only a local but also a national project\, which engages with systems of infrastructure\, government\, and culture at multiple scales. \n\nThe events are co-sponsored by theTaubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning at the University of Michigan and the Temple Hoyne Buell Center for the Study of American Architecture at Columbia University.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:West Meets East: Commerce Between Ancient Rome and South Asia
DESCRIPTION:The  Roman Republic (second-first century B.C.E.) and later\, the Roman Empire under Augustus\, Tiberius (first century C.E.) and their successors had commercial relations with the kingdoms of South Asia\, primarily India and Sri Lanka. These trade links\, flourished for around six hundred years and\, in due course\, extended to diplomatic relations and even cultural interactions. The height of the contacts was\, however\, unquestionably in the first two centuries C.E. The Romans procured gemstones (chiefly beryl or aquamarine)\, textiles (silk and cotton)\, ivory\, aromatic woods\, spices (primarily pepper and cardamom) and peacocks from South Asia. In return\, Rome exported wine as well as metals such as gold\, silver\, copper and antimony to South Asia.  The evidences for these contacts include the limited but significant references to the trade in ancient Greek\, Latin\, Tamil and Sanskrit literature and the recurrent discoveries of Roman coins\, ceramics and a few other types of Roman objects in different parts of India and adjoining regions. The archaeological evidences within Europe are very meager mainly because of the nature of the commerce—most of the trade goods (spices\, textiles\, ivory\, peacocks) reaching Europe were perishable commodities that have not survived for archaeology. \n\nBased on extensive field research in South Asia and Europe\, this lecture unfolds the little-known story of the Rome-South Asia contacts. The presentation takes you on a unique voyage across the places through which the Romans travelled in India and the interesting things—coins\, ceramics\, sculptures –that they left behind in those sites.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:2018 Dr. Berj H. Haidostian Annual Distinguished Lecture | International Justice for Atrocity Crimes – Worth the Cost?
DESCRIPTION:If you are unable to attend in person\, this lecture will be streamed live on our website: https://ii.umich.edu/asp/news-events/all-events/haidostian-annual-lectures/2018-dr--berj-h--haidostian-annual-distinguished-lecture.html\n\nSince the establishment of the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia in 1993\, several efforts have been made around the globe to bring to justice political and military leaders responsible for war crimes\, crimes against humanity and genocide. Several different models of international tribunals were established for Rwanda\, Sierra Leone\, Cambodia and Lebanon. In 2002\, the International Criminal Court began operations. Critics have labelled these efforts as too slow\, too expensive and a hindrance to peace efforts. Have these international courts had any effect on the commission of atrocities in times of conflict? Do they serve the interests of victims or contribute in any way to post-conflict transitions? Mr. Koumjian will talk about the future prospects for international criminal law\, and whether or not there will ever be a justice mechanism for atrocity crimes ongoing today in places like Syria\, Yemen and Myanmar. \n    \nNicholas Koumjian has worked at various international criminal tribunals for the past 17 years\, including the International Criminal Court\, International Court for the Former Yugoslavia\, Special Panels for Serious Crimes in East Timor\, State Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina\, and Special Court for Sierra Leone. From 2007-2012\, Mr. Koumjian was Senior Trial Attorney for the prosecution of Charles Taylor\, former President of Liberia for crimes in Sierra Leone. Following his appointment by the United Nations Secretary General\, he has served in Cambodia as the International Co-Prosecutor at the Khmer Rouge Tribunal. In June 2017\, he completed final arguments in the trial of Nuon Chea\, “Brother Number 2” in the Khmer Rouge regime and Khieu Samphan\, the former Head of State on charges for crimes committed by that regime between 1975-1979. It is estimated that almost 2 million people lost their lives during that regime and the charges include genocide\, enslavement\, forced marriage and rape.\n\nSponsored by the Armenian Studies Program\, the Donia Human Rights Center\, and the Program in International and Comparative Studies.

SUMMARY:Presentation:The Fall of Athens
DESCRIPTION:A reading at Literati Bookstore. \n\nAbout The Fall of Athens:\n\nThe Fall of Athens reflects the bleak state of present-day Athens and reminds the reader that there is nothing new about Greece's suffering. Combining present observations with portraits of the Greek musicians and writers\, Holst-Warhaft's book is both a peon of praise for the music and poetry that the author first discovered in the Greece of the 1960's\, and a reminder of how much the country has changed since it returned to democracy in 1974. Having played in the orchestras of such legends as Mikis Theodorakis and Dionysis Savvopoulos\, the author had a bird's eye view of 20th century Greek music at its apogee. Translating Greek poetry and prose later brought her in close contact with some of the leading writers of the period. With the discovery of Greek music and poetry came the forging of lasting friendships with these giants of Greek culture. This eclectic compilation of poetry\, prose\, translation\, memoir\, and songs captures the enigmatic\, hybrid nature of Greece\, a country that has always had the ability to create extraordinary beauty out of suffering.\n\nGail Holst-Warhaft was born in Australia. Besides being a poet she has been a journalist\, broadcaster\, prose-writer\, academic\, musician\, and translator. In the 1970's\, while researching a book on Greek music\, Holst-Warhaft performed as a keyboard-player with Greece's leading composers\, including Mikis Theodorakis. Among her many publications are Road to Rembetika (1975\, 5th edition 2013)\, Theodorakis: Myth and Politics in Modern Greek Music (Hakkert\, Amsterdam\, 1980)\, Dangerous Voices: Women's Laments and Greek Literature (Routledge\, 1992)\, The Cue for Passion: Grief and its Political Uses (Harvard\, 2000)\, I Had Three Lives: Selected Poems of Mikis Theodorakis (Livanis\, 2005)\, and Penelope's Confession (poems\, Cosmos\, 2007)\, Losing Paradise: The Water Crisis in the Mediterranean (Ashgate\, 2010). She has published translations of Aeschylus\, and of a number of modern Greek poets and prose-writers. Her poems and translations of Greek poetry have appeared in journals in the US (Literary Imagination\, Bookpress\, Seneca Review\, Antipodes\, Per Contra\, Literary Matters)\, the U.K. (Agenda\, Stand)\, Australia (Southerly)\, and Greece (Poetry Greece). She was appointed Poet Laureate of Tompkins County for 2011 and 2012.
