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: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:Conference / Symposium:Media Studies within the Data Turn
DESCRIPTION:The capacity of modern computers to capture and store traces of human behavior along an unprecedented number of dimensions has created something of an epistemological shift in society\, with datafication emerging as a newly dominant paradigm for making sense of the world. With the move towards datafication—and the attendant algorithmic logics used to make sense of it—everyday life has become mediated in new ways. For media studies\, this presents a challenge to figure out where our discipline fits. What does this mean for our objects of study? Our research questions? Our methods?\n\nThis miniconference will bring together graduate students and faculty from the University of Michigan community with invited guests whose work grapples with the impact of data on media studies in order to grapple with these questions. This daylong mini-conference will feature three panel discussion\, each kicked off by a guest speaker who will give a 30 minute presentation about their work and the provocations it introduces about what datafication means for media studies. Three members of the university of Michigan community will give 5 minute responses\, and then all four panelists will participate in a group discussion. These panels will be open to the public.\n#DataTurn\n\n9AM: Coffee\n\n9:15AM: Introductory Remarks\n\n9:30-11AM: Panel 1:The Interpretive Uncertainty of Data\nKeynote: Caitlin Petre\, Rutgers University\n\n11-11:15AM: Break\n\n11:15AM-12:45PM: Panel 2: Decentering Data Futures\nKeynote: Anita Say Chan\, UIUC\n\n12:45-1:15PM: Lunch\n\n1:30-3PM: Panel 3: The Data Agenda in Media Studies\nKeynote: John Cheney-Lippold\, UMich

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:Presentation:Smart Manufacturing through Virtual Material Processing
DESCRIPTION:Smart manufacturing enables faster\, more efficient production and improved worker safety while also enhancing market competitiveness. To remain economically viable\, manufacturers must reduce their leading time while lowering costs and raising efficiency. Modeling and simulation are used currently to increase manufacturing efficiency as well as to improve the way products are designed. For example\, finite element models are widely used for designing parts and for predicting defects. However\, the technological future is challenged by a multitude of materials-related phenomena whose essential role often extends over many scales in time and space. That is why traditional modeling is being replaced by multiscale modeling\, which has become a paradigm shift in understanding the way we design functionalities of a product. Multiscale material modeling enables the prediction of the relations between structure\, processing and properties of complex materials. Multiscale modeling of materials enables the design of materials that have specified properties and performance needed for specific parts. It allows the simulation not only of the material\, but also of the processing of those materials\, and provides online answers of the structure - property relations during manufacturing. In this presentation the focus will be on integrated simulations of molecular dynamics and finite elements to bridge time and space scales in modeling materials exposed to complex stress\, strain and thermal states\, or complex large deformations. Two case studies of using such multiscale modeling will be presented\, namely ultrasonic welding and micro-deep drawing.

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:Statistics Department Seminar Series: Jonathan Taylor\, Professor of Statistics\, Stanford University
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nWe begin with a description of recent work in the conditional approach to selective inference. These methods typically require describing potentially complex conditional distributions. In this work\, we describe a model-agnostic simplification to such conditional distributions when the selection stage can be expressed as a sequence of (randomized) convex programs with convex loss and structure inducing constraints or penalties. Our main result is a change of measure formula that expresses the selective likelihood in terms of an integral over variables appearing in the optimization problem. The region of integration can often be interpreted geometrically in terms of the normal cycle of the balls in the corresponding penalty. Using this change of measure\, we give a brief description of \"inferactive data analysis\"\, so-named to denote an interactive approach to data analysis with an emphasis on inference after data analysis.\n\nThis is joint work with Xiaoying Tian\, Nan Bi\, Snigdha Panigrahi and Jelena Markovic.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Cultural Identity and Materiality at French Fort St. Joseph (20BE23)\, Niles\, Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Fort St. Joseph was one of many French colonial outposts established throughout the St. Lawrence River Valley and the western Great Lakes region in the late 17th-18th centuries to cultivate alliances with Native peoples. The result was an exchange\, amalgamation\, and reinterpretation of material goods that testify to the close relationships the French maintained with various Native American groups. Yet\, closer examination suggests that both the French and Natives employed material goods in distinctive ways to ensure survival and promote their interests in the colonial encounter\; borrowing was merely an expedient strategy. This interpretation shifts attention away from the amicable relations\, altruistic behaviors\, and hybridization that researchers previously posited toward an understanding grounded in more pragmatic forms of materiality that agents practice to ensure the persistence of cultural identities under colonialism.

SUMMARY:Meeting:Wittgenstein's Philosophical Investigations
DESCRIPTION:We write to invite you to a reading group on Wittgenstein’s Philosophical Investigations. This group will not require preparation prior to the meetings. The format of the reading group will be a slow but deep dive into the Investigations by reading aloud and then discussing the book\, section by section. We hope to make it through 5 to 10 sections each meeting. After the discussion on a section dries up\, we’ll move to the next section until the hour and a half of the meeting is over. This design is meant to accommodate busy schedules\, and it also should be amenable to varying degrees of familiarity with the Investigations and Wittgenstein’s other work.\n\nOur first meeting will be next Friday (February 2) from 1:30-3:00pm. Location: Angell Hall 3184. All interested faculty\, staff\, and graduate students are welcome to attend. RSVP to Bryan Kim-Butler (bkimbutl@umich.edu) and Ben Mangrum (bmangrum@umich.edu). If you can’t make it for the first meeting but are interested\, please let us know and we’ll add you to the mailing list.\n\nWe'll bring photocopies of the sections likely to be read and discussed each meeting. However\, you’re also welcome to bring your own copy of the Investigations.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Dance and Dialogue: Human Contact and Democracy
DESCRIPTION:How can the body be a laboratory for examining dialogue\, choice-making\, roles and habits? In this interactive workshop\, choreographer and King-Chavez-Parks Visiting Artist Eryn Rosenthal will share some of her research on the connections between a dance form called Contact Improvisation and the political writings of Steve Biko\, Ada Colau\, Paolo Freire\, Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela\, Judith Butler\, and others. What can the body bring to larger discussions of dialogue-building\, inclusion\, resilience and empowerment?\n\nWear comfortable clothes and shoes that you can bend\, move and stretch in. No experience necessary\, and all bodies\, abilities and backgrounds are actively welcome. This workshop includes talking\, moving and listening.\n\nRefreshments will be provided.\n\nChoreographer and CEW Scholar Alum Eryn Rosenthal examines the democratic underpinnings of Contact Improvisation and the role of the body in transgressing previously legislated boundaries. She has worked with choreographers Sello Pesa\, poet Elizabeth Alexander\, and documentary theatre pioneer Anna Deavere Smith\, among others. Eryn’s ongoing series The Doors Project investigates transitions–political\, social\, intimate–through site-based performance in different doorways around the world. Eryn holds a BA from Yale University and an MFA in Dance from U-M\, where she also studied in the Ford School for Public Policy. She has performed and taught throughout the US\, South Africa and Europe\, and is currently teaching an interdisciplinary performance course at U-M's Residential College. She is delighted to be back at U-M as a King-Chávez-Parks Visiting Professor and Artist in Residence for Dialogue-Building\, Diversity and Inclusion Initiatives. www.erynrosenthal.com\n\nRSVP online at: http://events.constantcontact.com/register/event?llr=5e675vcab&oeidk=a07eey8tc4fd32ebb43

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Performing Arts Technology Seminar: Joo Won Park
DESCRIPTION:Craftsmanship is formed through a habitual interaction between practice and thinking. With constant experiment and refinement\, one can build craftsmanship in electronic music composition and performance. In this lecture\, Joo Won Park will share his experience in improving electroacoustic skills through strategic and conscious composition and practice routine.\n\nJoo Won Park wants to make everyday sound beautiful and strange so that every day becomes beautiful and strange. He performs live with toys\, consumer electronics\, kitchenware\, vegetables\, and other non-musical objects by digitally processing their sounds. He also makes pieces with field recordings\, sine waves\, and any other sources that he can record or synthesize. Joo Won draws inspirations from swamps\, skyscrapers\, his two sons\, and other soundscapes surrounding him. He has studied at Berklee College of Music and the University of Florida\, and currently teaches Music Technology at the Wayne State University. Joo Won’s music and writings are available on ICMC DVD\, Spectrum Press\, MIT Press\, PARMA\, Visceral Media\, MCSD\, SEAMUS\, and No Remixes labels.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Theory: Cheap Talk with Transparent Motives
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nWe study a model of cheap talk with one substantive assumption: the sender's preferences are state-independent. Our key observation is that this setting is amenable to the belief-based approach familiar from models of persuasion with commitment. Using this approach\, we examine the possibility of valuable communication\, assess the value of commitment\, and explicitly solve for sender-optimal equilibria in a large class of examples. A key product is a geometric characterization of the value of cheap talk\, described by the quasiconcave envelope of the sender's indirect utility.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Tidal Tomography: What an Often-neglected Phenomenon Known as Earth Tides Can Tell Us About Buoyancy in the Deepest Part of the Mantle
DESCRIPTION:Earth’s mantle is a key component of the Earth system: its circulation drives plate tectonics\, the long-term recycling of Earth’s volatiles\, and as such\, holds fundamental implications for the Earth’s surface environment.  In order to understand this evolution\, a key parameter of the mantle must be known\, namely its buoyancy.  In this talk\, I will discuss how Earth’s body tide can provide fresh and independent constraints on deep mantle buoyancy through a newly developed technique called Tidal Tomography.  This comes at a time when other interesting and exciting data sets sensitive to deep mantle buoyancy\, e.g.\, Stoneley modes\, have been brought to bear\, and we will explore our conclusions in the context of other recent finds.\n\nIn particular\, we will focus on two regions of the deep mantle known as the Large Low Shear Velocity Provinces (LLSVPs)\, the buoyancy of which has attracted much debate over the past few decades.  Using a global GPS data set of high precision measurements of the Earth’s body tide\, we perform a tomographic inversion to constrain the integrated buoyancy of these LLSVPs at the base of the mantle.  As a consequence of the long-wavelength and low frequency nature of the Earth’s body tide\, these observations are particularly sensitivity to LLSVP buoyancy.   Using a probabilistic approach we find that the data are best fit when the bottom two thirds (~700 km) of the LLSVPs have an integrated excess density of ~0.60%.  \nThe detailed distribution of this buoyancy\, for example whether it primarily resides in a thin layer at the base of the mantle\, will require further testing and the augmentation of the inversions to include independent data sets (e.g.\, seismic observations). Nevertheless\, our inference of excess density requires the preservation of chemical heterogeneity associated with the enrichment of high-density chemical components\, possibly linked to subducted oceanic plates and/or primordial material\, in the deep mantle.  This conclusion has important implications for the stability of these structures and\, in turn\, the history and ongoing evolution of the Earth system.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Politics of Skin Color
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nHeterogeneity in skin color is linked to significant differences in life experiences both within and across racial groups. For example\, darker skinned African Americans have worse health outcomes\, lower incomes\, less education\, lower rates of marriage\, and even receive harsher criminal sentencing than lighter skinned blacks. Within political science\, the focus on racial groups as largely homogenous entities has overlooked potentially important heterogeneity within groups based on skin color and gender. Drawing evidence from the 2012 American National Election Study\, two online surveys\, and 67 in-depth qualitative interviews\, the following is clear: (1) Skin tone is a salient identity to a sizable portion of black people\, especially those with dark skin\; (2) Darker skin tone is associated with higher levels of support for more liberal policies in domains where darker-skinned people are often marginalized\; and\, (3) The intersection of skin tone and gender relates to stereotypes and perceptions of racialized policies. The goal of this line of research is to explore how skin color and gender inform social and political judgments\, as well as feelings of efficacy and marginalization from the political system. This work not only offers important implications for scholars and policymakers alike\, but also has implications extending across racial groups.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LECTURE: JANETTE SADIK-KHAN
DESCRIPTION:One of the leading voices on urban transportation policy\, Janette Sadik-Khan is internationally respected for her transformative redesigns of New York City streets and rapid-implementation strategies that are being replicated today in cities around the world.\n\nShe was Commissioner of the New York City Department of Transportation from 2007–2013 under Mayor Michael Bloomberg\, leading one of the most sweeping revitalizations of the city’s streets in a half-century.\n\nDuring her tenure\, New York City added nearly 400 miles of bike lanes and the first parking-protected bike paths in North America. The department she led set in motion more than 60 plazas across the city\, including the historic plazas that shut Broadway through Times Square\, sparking economic recovery throughout the area. She worked with the Metropolitan Transportation Authority to launch the city’s first six rapid bus lines and oversaw hundreds of intersection and street redesigns that contributed to the city’s record-low traffic fatalities. Sadik-Khan oversaw the 2013 launch of Citi Bike\, the nation’s largest bike share system\, which to date has been used more than 22 million times and is doubling in size to 12\,000 bikes.\n\n​She currently advises mayors of cities around the world as a principal at Bloomberg Associates\, a philanthropic consultancy established by Michael Bloomberg to help cities around the world improve the quality of life of their citizens. She assists mayors and their teams in developing street redesigns in cities from Los Angeles to Mexico City to Rio and Athens. \n\n​As chair of the National Association of Transportation Officials (NACTO)\, an organization of transportation commissioners and directors in 38 cities\, she led the development and publication of NACTO’s Global and Urban Street Design Guides and the Urban Bikeway Design Guide. The new standards in these documents have been recognized by USDOT and adopted by 40 cities worldwide.\n\n​Sadik-Khan was a Senior Vice President of Parsons Brinckerhoff\, a leading international engineering firm. Previously\, she worked in Washington\, D.C.\, as a Deputy Administrator at the US Department of Transportation.  She holds a B.A. in Political Science from Occidental College\, and a J.D. from Columbia University School of Law.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:2018 Robert F. Berkhofer Jr. Lecture: An Evening With Gerald Vizenor
DESCRIPTION:Native American Studies at the University of Michigan presents the 2018 Robert F. Berkhofer Jr. Lecture: An Evening With Gerald Vizenor\n\nBETRAYAL AND IRONY: Native American Survivance and the Subversion of Ethnology\n\nGerald Vizenor is Professor Emeritus of American Studies at the University of California\, Berkeley. He is a citizen of the White Earth Nation in Minnesota\, and has published more than thirty books including novels\, literary criticism\, cultural studies\, and poetry. Blue Ravens\, an historical novel\, and Treaty Shirts are his most recent publications. Vizenor has received many awards including the American Book Award for Griever: An American Monkey King in China\, the Western Literature Association Distinguished Achievement Award\, and the Lifetime Literary Achievement Award from the Native Writer’s Circle of the Americas. Prior to his long career as an intellectual and academic\, he enlisted in the U.S. Armed Forces\, during which he was stationed in Japan\; directed the American Indian Employment and Guidance Center in Minneapolis\; and served as a journalist for the Minneapolis Tribune\, where he reported critically about the activities of the American Indian Movement.\n\nThis event is free and open to the public. There will be a catered reception to follow the lecture. Literati bookstore will be selling Vizenor's books starting at 6PM and again after the lecture.\n\nThe Berkhofer Lecture series (named for a former U-M professor and founder of the field of Native American studies) was established in 2014 by an alumni gift from the Dan and Carmen Brenner family of Seattle\, Washington. In close consultation with the Brenners\, Native American Studies decided to create a public lecture series featuring prominent\, marquee speakers who would draw audiences from different communities (faculty and students\, Ann Arbor and Detroit\, and Michigan tribal communities as well as writers and readers of all persuasions). Native American students at U-M have consistently expressed their desire to make Native Americans more visible both on campus and off\, and we believe that this lecture takes a meaningful step in that direction. Additionally\, because of the statewide publicity it generates\, we think it is already becoming another recruitment incentive for Native American students. It goes without saying that the speakers we are inviting provide tremendous value to the mission and work of Native American Studies at U-M.

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.

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: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:Workshop / Seminar:TBP Grad Student Speaker Series: Training (for) Better Presentations
DESCRIPTION:**Note change of location**\nWe are excited to announce the launch of TBP Graduate Student Speaker Series: Training (for) Better Presentations organized by Tau Beta Pi for the College of Engineering\, a pilot professional development event funded by the College of Engineering and the Office of Student Affairs. \n\nTraining (for) Better Presentations is aimed at providing Michigan Engineering graduate students the opportunity to enhance their scientific communication skills\, so they can learn to effectively convey the \"big picture\" value of their research to a diverse audience. It also aims to engage a dialog of science and engineering research among graduate students across the entire College of Engineering.\n\nIntended as \"teaching through practice\" event\, each session is structured to have student speakers (2-3 per session) make a timed (15-20 min) presentation on their graduate research to a broad engineering audience and a communications expert panel (3-4 panelists). Our expert panelists will provide constructive feedback to the speakers (and the audience)\, highlighting the positive aspects of each presentation and also indicating opportunities for improvement. This structure will allow for the speakers to receive specific feedback on their communication skills\, while also providing the audience with generalized guidelines for good scientific communication.\n\nStarting mid-February and leading up to June\, we will be organizing multiple sessions for this event\, and we invite you to participate. The sessions will be held on Saturday mornings (9am - 11am)\, and will be scheduled to occur once every 2-3 weeks. Breakfast and coffee will be provided!\n\nIf you are interested in participating as a speaker\, please indicate your availability on the \"Speaker sign up\" form and the planning committee will follow up with you for scheduling. If you are interested in participating as an audience member\, please sign up through our TBP website on the \"Audience sign up\" link. Note: you be prompted to create a guest profile in order to sign-up as an audience member.\n\nWe look forward to your participation!

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Washtenaw County Autonomous Vehicles Expert Panel
DESCRIPTION:This event is free and open to the public\, but registration is required.\n\nAs self-driving cars make the move from science fiction to neighborhood parking lots\, their impact on society has become a widespread topic of public debate. Across the University of Michigan campus\, experts have presented on the technologies\, regulatory issues\, and business opportunities surrounding Autonomous Vehicles (AV). Missing though\, are the critical perspectives and values of the community. This spring\, a group of students from the University of Michigan are organizing an opportunity for community members to learn about and voice their opinions on what is destined to be a society-altering technology. This type of event\, called a consensus conference\, enables the public to contribute to the discussion around technologies that impact their lives. To better understand AV impacts in our community we are looking beyond these experts to those who will be most impacted—the community members themselves.\n\nRegister here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/self-driving-cars-expert-panel-tickets-43942594483

DESCRIPTION:We also celebrate the Van Loo Saturday Morning Physics Lecture on this date.\n(Three talks in one)\nEntropy\, Shape\, and Phase Transition - Chrisy Xiyu Du (U-M Physics)\nUsing Femtosecond Spectroscopy to Illuminate Photosynthesis - Veronica Policht (U-M Physics)\nPhotosynthesis powers life on Earth. Following the initial absorption of light\, the primary energy conversion steps in photosynthesis occur incredibly rapidly (10^-12 s)\, making it particularly challenging to study. We'll discuss how carefully timed sequences of ultrafast laser pulses enable us to take real-time snapshots that improve our understanding of this critical process.\nThe Sound Heard 'Round the World' - Brian Worthmann (U-M Applied Physics)\nIn everyday life\, we as humans are used to sounds traveling anywhere from a few feet for a quiet conversation\, up to a few miles for some of the loudest sounds. But in the ocean\, a fascinating combination of physics allows sound to travel significantly much\, much further. We'll talk about how sound travels in air\, why it's different in the ocean\, and why this fact was a closely guarded secret during the Cold War.

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:Ann Arbor Art + Feminism Wikipedia Edit-a-thon
DESCRIPTION:You're invited to participate in the Ann Arbor Art + Feminism (AAAF) Wikipedia Edit-a-thon\, a nodal event of the international Art+Feminism Wikipedia Edit-a-thon campaign. Join us for a communal updating of Wikipedia entries on subjects related to art and feminism. We'll provide tutorials for the beginner Wikipedian\, in-person assistance\, reference materials\, and refreshments. Bring your laptop\, power cord and ideas for entries that need updating or creation. People of all gender identities and expressions are invited to participate. Please register to participate (https://www.eventbrite.com/e/ann-arbor-artfeminism-wikipedia-edit-a-thon-2018-tickets-42885467588) or stop by to show your support.\n\nWhy We Edit: Wikimedia’s gender trouble is well-documented. While the reasons for the gender gap are up for debate\, the practical effect of this disparity is not. Content is skewed by the lack of female\, queer\, and PoC participation. This represents an alarming absence in an increasingly important repository of shared knowledge. Let’s change that.\n\nPlease come\, and consider sharing invitations to participate with your networks.\n\nHosted by the University of Michigan Library in partnership with the University of Michigan Museum of Art (UMMA)\, the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, and the Ann Arbor District Library.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:The Irresistible Joy of Film: The Early Works of Karpo Godina
DESCRIPTION:The late Sixties and early Seventies were years of prosperity and unexpected freedom in Yugoslavia\, with exploration\, growth\, fabulous art\, and incredible films (later dubbed The Black Wave) that opposed official socialist-realist production. In this brief period\, Karpo Godina stood up as an exceptional director of photography\, collaborating with Želimir Žilnik (whose Early Works Godina shot and edited) and Dušan Makavejev on their first features. At the same time\, he explored the possibilities and limitations of cinema in his own films. The still\, almost rigid camera\, each frame a perfectly composed photograph that suddenly comes alive\; the beauty of editing\; and the use of music—each element creates an unabashed sense of overpowering joy. A hidden\, titillating joy one feels when discovering any truly beautiful\, exceptionally simple and profoundly deep work of art—and an irresistible urge to laugh a liberating laugh. These films\, subversive and optimistic\, slightly ironic and never cynical\, celebrate life in socialist Yugoslavia while mocking the ideological rigidity of the ruling party. Shot all across Yugoslavia\, they represent the best of Yugoslav cinema of the time.\n\nThis screening is part of the Ann Arbor Film Festival.

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.

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: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: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:Gemini
DESCRIPTION:Gemini is the much-loved duo of Sandor and Laszlo Slomovits. They've been performing since 1973 and are now playing music for the third—or is it fourth?—generation of young fans and families. They write and perform acoustic music for children and families\, celebrating with their audiences the warmth\, fun\, and joy of family life. A Gemini concert is a kinetic event\, filled with rousing singalongs\, hand motion tunes\, folk tales\, and music from around the world. \"If the Pied Piper had been twins\, chances are he would have been Gemini\,\" says the Detroit News. Since 1979 San and Laz have released numerous recordings for adults and children and families. These recordings have won a number of awards including ones from Parents' Choice Magazine\, the American Library Association\, the National Parenting Publications (NAPPA)\, and the Wolf Trap Institute for Early Learning Through the Arts

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Tremor
DESCRIPTION:in German\, Italian\, Dutch\, Icelandic\, French & Lomongo\n\nTREMOR is driven by the voices that run through it – the voices of poets and madmen\, of a mother or a child. From self-reflexive thoughts to spontaneous accounts\, from witness statements to pure fiction\, they talk in turns about their experience of violence and war. As we listen to them\, our gaze is taken to places and scarred landscapes impossible to locate. Noises from elsewhere filter through. The image becomes distorted and porous. Music starts to play. The film lingers over the presence of a pianist\, before diffracting again... TREMOR is a sensory journey between memory and nightmare. An act of resistance.

DESCRIPTION:This program is free and open to the public\, but space is limited. Please register to secure your place by emailing umma-program-registration@umich.edu. Please include date and title of program in the subject line of your email.\n\n'Aftermath' considers photography’s role in documenting and commemorating tragic events\, including conflicts\, natural disasters\, and the devastation wrought by modern technology. Disasters often affect particular geographic locations at particular moments. However\, photographs have the ability to produce imagined communities of spectators across space and time and play a key role in shaping collective memories of such catastrophic events. Join Sean Kramer\, Curatorial Intern in the Department of Photography at UMMA\, for a discussion of these complex issues in relation to photographs by Felice Beato\, Timothy O’Sullivan\, Margaret Bourke-White\, and Sally Mann\, among others. \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:Performance:We Banjo 3
DESCRIPTION:One of the best live acts to come out of Ireland in recent years is the multi-awarded winning We Banjo 3. With a seven-time all-Ireland banjo champ\, a four-time banjo champ\, and another member who is an all-Ireland champ on both fiddle and bodhran\, and with a passionate lead vocalist like a young Springsteen adopted by the Chieftains\, the result is unforgettable. On both sides of the Atlantic the word is out about this group! WB3 performed at the  “Friends of Ireland” luncheon on Capital Hill attended by House Speaker Paul Ryan\, President Barack Obama\, Vice President Joe Biden\, and Irish Prime Minister Enda Kenny\, and has headlined virtually every major U.S .Celtic fest for several years in a row. With a strong bluegrass influence\, the band is rapidly gaining favor in the worlds of bluegrass and Americana as well\, as evidenced by their invites to Merlefest\, ROMP Fest\, Sisters Folk Fest\, Old Settlers Fest\, Four Corners Fest and more! Scots band Talisk\, recent winners of the BBC Young Folk Award\, is special guest.

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.

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:Lecture / Discussion:AE Defense: Impact of Vibrational Nonequilibrium on the Simulation and Modeling of Dual-Mode Scramjets
DESCRIPTION:Aerospace Engineering PhD Candidate: Romain Fiévet\, Dissertation Chair: Prof. Venkat Raman\n\nIn the aerospace world\, hypersonic aircrafts have a special place in research due to their transformative potential. The ability to travel at speeds greater than that of sound will vastly alter the global movement of people and goods. At the heart of such hypersonic aircrafts is the dual-mode scramjet engine. Unlike conventional aircraft engines\, scramjets lack a moving turbomachinery and instead rely on the natural fluid-mechanical compression of the high-speed ingested air.\n\nThe compression stage needs to be carefully designed to provide the combustor with the optimal airflow thermodynamic state\, and ensure the target thrust. Since the vehicle’s speed determines the compression ratio\, which in turn ensures stable propulsion\, a vicious circle can occur if any of these components falters. This leads to a critical in-flight engine shutdown.\n\nThe purpose of this dissertation is to decipher by the mean of computational fluid dynamics certain physics inside scramjets. By combining supercomputing resources with state-of-the-art modeling\, a high level of detail could be simulated. Particularly\, the sensitivity of shock turbulent boundary layer interactions and supersonic combustion to vibrational nonequilibrium was elucidated. In light of these findings\, a reduced-order model was built to help design operationally robust engines.\n\nDissertation Committee Names:\nChair: Venkat Raman\nCognate Member: Eric Johnsen\nMembers: James F.

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 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: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 - Prevalence\, Predictors\, and Consequences of Substance Use: A Neurodevelopmental Perspective
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Despite being a major public health concern\, substance use is pervasive in the United States. Substance use tends to begin in adolescence and then escalate through early adulthood\, indicating the importance of using a developmental perspective in substance use research. In this talk\, I will discuss psychosocial and neural predictors of substance use among youth\, focusing on alcohol and marijuana. I will also discuss impacts of substance use on psychosocial and neural functioning. In addition to presenting multi-level risk factors for youth substance use\, I will highlight aspects of resilience as well.\n\nBio: Dr. Martz is a postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Michigan Addiction Center within the Department of Psychiatry. Her research focuses on psychosocial and neural factors associated with substance use risk and resilience among adolescents and young adults. Using multidisciplinary methods\, Dr. Martz has examined both population-level survey data from the Monitoring the Future study and is currently working with fMRI data from the Michigan Longitudinal Study and the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development Study. Dr. Martz received her PhD in Developmental Psychology from the University of Michigan and completed a pre-doctoral fellowship with NIDA’s Substance Abuse Interdisciplinary Training Program. Prior to completing her PhD\, Dr. Martz received a MSW degree from the University of Chicago and a BS degree in Psychology with a minor in Human Development and Family Studies from Indiana University.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CANCELED - Social\, Behavioral & Experimental Economics (SBEE): Moral Values and Voting
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nThis paper studies the supply of and demand for moral values in recent U.S. presidential elections. The hypothesis is that people exhibit heterogeneity in their adherence to “individualizing” relative to “communal” moral values and that politicians’ vote shares reflect the interaction of their relative moral appeal and the values of the electorate. To investigate the supply of morality\, a text analysis of campaign documents classifies all candidates for the presidency since 2008 along the moral individualism vs. communalism dimension. On the demand-side\, the analysis exploits two separate survey datasets to link the structure of voters’ moral values to election outcomes\, both across individuals and across counties. The results document that heterogeneity in moral values is systematically related to voting behavior in ways that are predicted by supply-side text analyses. For example\, Donald Trump’s rhetoric exhibits the largest communal moral appeal among all recent presidential nominees. This pattern is matched on the demand-side\, where communal values are strongly correlated with votes for Trump in the primaries\, the difference in votes between Trump and past Republicans in the presidential election\, and increases in voter turnout in 2016. Similarly tight connections between supply- and demand-side analyses hold for almost all contenders for the presidency in recent years\, hence suggesting that morality is a key determinant of election outcomes more generally. Still\, a key difference between 2016 and earlier elections appears to be the salience of moral threat in political language.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Decision Consortium - The Knowledge Illusion
DESCRIPTION:Humans have built hugely complex societies and technologies\, but most of us don’t even know how a pen or a toilet works. How have we achieved so much despite understanding so little? The answer is that we survive and thrive despite our mental shortcomings because we live in a rich community of knowledge. The key to our intelligence lies in the people and things around us. We’re constantly drawing on information and expertise stored outside our heads: in our bodies\, our environment\, our possessions\, and the community with which we interact—and usually we don’t even realize we’re doing it. The human mind is both brilliant and pathetic. We have mastered fire\, created democratic institutions\, stood on the moon\, and sequenced our genome. And yet each of us is error prone\, sometimes irrational\, and often ignorant. The fundamentally communal nature of intelligence and knowledge explains why we often assume we know more than we really do\, why political opinions and false beliefs are so hard to change\, and why individually oriented approaches to education and management frequently fail. But our collaborative minds also enable us to do amazing things\; true genius can be found in the ways we create intelligence using the world around us. The talk will highlight research aimed at improving public discourse around divisive issues in light of individual ignorance and distributed knowledge.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Black on Both Sides: A Racial History of Trans Identity
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a lecture by C. Riley Snorton\, Associate Professor of Africana Studies at Cornell University.\n\nLecture Abstract:\nDrawing on a deep and varied archive of materials—early sexological texts\, fugitive slave narratives\, Afro-modernist literature\, sensationalist journalism\, Hollywood films—in this talk\, Snorton attends to how slavery and the production of racialized gender provided the foundations for an understanding of gender as mutable. In tracing the twinned genealogies of blackness and transness\, Snorton follows multiple trajectories\, from the medical experiments conducted on enslaved black women by J. Marion Sims\, the “father of American gynecology\,” to instances of personal sovereignty among blacks living in the antebellum North that were mapped in terms of “cross dressing.”

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Characterizing Hot and Dense Nuclear Matter Using Temperature Fluctuation
DESCRIPTION:Power law formulae have routinely been used to describe the transverse momentum spectra of the hadrons at high energies. The Tsallis distribution is one among them which has been very successful in explaining the experimental transverse momentum distribution\, longitudinal momentum fraction distribution as well as the rapidity distribution of the hadrons in electron-positron and proton-proton collisions. The Tsallis distribution is a two parameter power-law distribution\, described by the Tsallis parameter q (which can be related to the relative variance in temperature) and the Tsallis temperature T\, which reduces to the Boltzmann (exponential) distribution when q goes to 1. The Tsallis distribution has been used in many fields of the physical as well as the social sciences (like Statistical Mechanics\, Geology\, Anatomy\, Economics\, Finance and many more). In the realm of the physical sciences it arises when there are systems with non-ideal effects like long range correlation\, memory effect etc. Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP)\, the hot and dense medium created during the high energy collision phenomena\, is one such example. This medium has been under intensive study for the past few decades and we will discuss how the Tsallis distribution can be used for characterization of QGP.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:STS Speaker. Bureaucratic epistemes and regulatory disputes: Genetically Modified (GM) crops between science and legal-administration
DESCRIPTION:A fierce controversy surrounding the question of allowing commercial release of GM food crops\, has been raging in India for nearly a decade. While the controversy concerns far-reaching issues of food security\, food sovereignty\, consumers' choice\, farmers' livelihoods and ecological impacts\, these are articulated in government policymaking via bureaucratic routines and documents. In this talk\, I examine the regulatory regime overseeing GM crops in India\, instituted in the late 1980s\, to argue that two epistemes - scientific and legal-administrative - are fused in its design. By unraveling the course of two regulatory disputes\, I suggest that an inherent ambiguity is lodged between scientific and legal-administrative modes of documentation\, as facts generated in one register can be challenged by those registered in the other. I demonstrate that this ambiguity both fosters and constrains democratic participation and scrutiny over government policymaking\, with deeply ambivalent implications.

SUMMARY:Other:The When\, Why\, and How of Flow Chemistry
DESCRIPTION:                                                                                                                                                                        Flow chemistry has the potential to revolutionize the synthesis of organic molecules.  Flow systems can reduce reaction times\, increase efficiency\, and obviate problems often encountered in scaling up.  In addition to these important practical advantages\, flow chemistry expands the “toolbox” of organic reactions available to scientists engaged in the synthesis of molecules – from small-scale experiments to large-scale production.  These benefits are a direct result of several features of flow synthesis that batch synthesis typically cannot achieve\, for example\, the ability to control fluid flow precisely\, the access to temperature and pressure regimes not usually considered to be practical\, and the enhanced safety characteristics of flow chemical systems.  In this lecture we will discuss some of our investigations in this area in the form of case studies\, wherein a specific target or family of organic molecules has served as an inspiration for the development of new methods of organic synthesis in flow.  Flow chemistry represents an important conceptual advance in the design and execution of chemical syntheses.                                                                        \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nTimothy Jamison (Massachusetts Institute of Technology)

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:Presentation:UM Psychology Community Talk with Dr. Priti Shah
DESCRIPTION:Uninhibited Imaginations: Creativity and Hyperfocus in ADHD\n\nADHD is a common neuropsychologyical disorder marked by inattentiveness\, impulsivity\, and hyperactivity.  ADHD may contribute to functional impairment in academic\, vocational\, and social situations. At the same time\, the attentional disregulation associated with ADHD may have some positive consequences.   In this talk\, I will present data suggesting that one of these benefits may be exceptional creativity.  Specifically\, individuals with ADHD  exhibit enhanced \"divergent\" thinking\, and this thinking style is associated with greater creative achievement in some domains.  I will also discuss data suggesting that individuals with ADHD\, when motivated\, may actually show periods of intense focus (often dubbed hyperfocus)\; this intense focus can have benefits (e.g.\, for the creative process) and costs (e.g.\, procrastination).  I will also briefly describe ongoing research on attention interventions for ADHD children. Finally\, I will speculate on clinical and academic implications of this research. \n\nPriti Shah is a Professor of Psychology at the University of Michigan in cognition and cognitive neuroscience and educational psychology. She completed her PhD at Carnegie Mellon University and her undergraduate degree at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.  She studies how students learn and limitations in student learning. Current projects include studies of improving scientific reasoning in middle school children\, correcting false beliefs about science\, the impact of math anxiety on math learning\, and improving attention and motivation in children with ADHD.  Dr. Shah has edited three books and published over 60 articles and book chapters. She has received funding from numerous federal agencies and foundations such as the Institute for Educational Sciences\, the National Institute of Aging\, the National Science Foundation\, and the Spencer Foundation. She is an avid reader and the mother of two children\, one in college and one in the Ann Arbor Public Schools.

SUMMARY:Performance:CSEAS Annual Gamelan Concert. From the Palace to the Tent: A Concert of Classic and Popular Gamelan Music and Dance Traditions of Java
DESCRIPTION:While the grand palaces of Central Java's traditional court cities have long functioned as centers for classical performing arts\, the festive street tents under which urban dwellers gather for family and communal ceremonies foster ever-changing popular traditions of Javanese music and dance. Two highly renowned artist-scholars from the Indonesian Institute of the Arts lead the UM student gamelan ensemble in a concert that will highlight contrasts and continuities between court and popular gamelan music and Javanese dance styles. The concert will also feature the premiere performance of \"There's also fog where I come from\" by UM Composer-in-Residence for Gamelan Conner Singh VanderBeek.

SUMMARY:Performance:Guest Recital: Norman Krieger\, piano
DESCRIPTION:A native of Los Angeles\, Norman Krieger is one of the most acclaimed pianists of his generation and is highly regarded as an artist of depth\, sensitivity and virtuosic flair. As The Los Angeles Times put it\, “Krieger owns a world of technique-take that for granted. He always knows exactly where he is going and what he is doing. He never for instant miscalculates. He communicates urgently but with strict control. He is alert to every manner of nuance and at every dynamic level his tone flatters the ear.”

SUMMARY:Performance:Mo Lowda //Quiet Hollers
DESCRIPTION:Here are two bands that offer original music with a rock sound. Known for their progressive songwriting and energetic live performances\, Mo Lowda & The Humble began in the beer-soaked basements of Philadelphia. Following the release of their first full-length\, \"Curse the Weather\, the band started to hit the road. They've played shows throughout the country\, including those at summer festivals such as Firefly. The band's 2016 sophomore release\, \"Act Accordingly\,\" was a short and sweet embodiment of the band's natural progression\, and they're coming to Michigan with a new release on the way. Quiet Hollers formed in Louisville around the songwriting of singer/guitarist Shadwick Wilde\, who originally formed the group with the idea of playing only one show—the CD release of his solo effort\, \"Unforgivable Things\,\" in 2010. The group’s debut\, I Am the Morning\, followed in 2013. Quiet Hollers signed with the indie label SonaBLAST! for their third album\, \"Amen Breaks.\" The album draws parallels between the modern entertainment landscape and the cultural crossover of the 1970s– another decade marred by division\, political corruption\, and terrorist bombs. Their shape-shifting palate makes use of orchestral strings and brass\, vintage drum-machines and samples (including the Amen Break\, the most sampled piece of music in history). \"Amen Breaks\" explores themes of spirituality\, sexuality\, and mental illness.

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 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: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:Health\, History\, Demography & Development (H2D2): Relative skills of internal migrants and non-migrants in Indonesia: Role of networks
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nHow does the structure of recent migrant inflows change when communities experience more migration? I study the change in relative skills of migrants and non-migrants in the context of Indonesian internal migration over a period of 1985-2005. Using novel data of origin municipalities and year of migration\, I am able to identify origin-destination-specific migration networks as the stock of established migrants in various locations. I provide empirical results that highlight the role of network size and its economic capital in lowering the degree of positive selection in migration with respect to education. The results suggest that as origin communities accumulate migration experience\, the skill level of migrants should decline.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Tuesday Lecture Series | Qing Water Systems: A Multi-Environmental Perspective
DESCRIPTION:The Qing dynasty recognized that its empire’s multi-ecological conditions of water instability – in territories as diverse as the watery lower Yangzi delta and the arid Zunghar basin – precluded a single administrative solution applicable throughout its domains and would only be successful in the unification of Inner Asia and China proper to the extent Qing administration could implement this recognition in the form of regionally-sensitive policies. In this respect\, a sustainable Qing empire was an exercise in adaptation to both human and ecological (i.e.\, “environmental”) conditions and not simply a struggle between competing human interests\, often characterized in multi-ethnic terms. \n    \nDavid A. Bello received his PhD from the University of Southern California and is currently Elizabeth Lewis Otey Professor of East Asian Studies in the Department of History at Washington and Lee University. His main research interest is the environmental and borderland history of China’s last dynasty\, the Qing (1644-1912). His latest book\, \"Across Forest\, Steppe and Mountain: Environment\, Identity and Empire in Qing China’s Borderlands\,\" was published in 2016 by Cambridge University Press in its “Studies in Environment and History” series.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Polemical Identities\, Electorate Demographics and Electoral Rules: Strategic Identity-Signaling by Protestant Candidates in Brazilian Municipal Elections
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: I analyze how electoral rules and electorate demographics affect whether candidates who hail from polemical minority groups highlight or downplay this identity when running for political office. I present a model predicting that when voters rely entirely on identity signals\, an office-motivated candidate’s decision to broadcast or downplay her polemical identity will depend on 1) Electoral rules\, 2) Constituency demographics and the 3) The electoral salience of the candidate’s identity. This model motivates my analysis of the use of Protestant ballot titles by Protestant candidates in Brazilian municipal elections from 2002 to 2014. In line with the model’s predictions\, I find that Protestant candidates are significantly more likely to broadcast their Protestant identity in proportional city council races compared to majoritarian mayoral races\, but that this difference shrinks as Protestants compose a relatively larger fraction of the electorate. This model and accompanying empirical analysis build on behavioral findings regarding the pervasiveness of identity voting as well as the fundamental prediction from political economy that proportional rules allow for a wider range of competitive alternatives relative to majoritarian rules to show why candidates often project median identities. Additionally\, it provides a novel assessment of how electoral rules mediate the expression of Protestant Christianity in Brazilian politics.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Shared Technology\, Competing Logics: How Healthcare Providers And Law Enforcement Agents Use Prescription Drug Monitoring Programs To Combat Opioid Abuse
DESCRIPTION:Sociologists and socio-legal scholars have explored how social fields transform social problems\, but have largely overlooked how social problems transform social fields. This research uses the contemporary U.S. opioid crisis as a case for examining how efforts to address a shared social problem have transformed the fields of healthcare and criminal justice. Based on interviews with healthcare providers and enforcement agents in California\, findings demonstrate how the use of shared technology in the form of prescription drug monitoring programs paired with the encroachment of institutional logics from adjacent fields helps to reshape workers’ roles\, routines\, and relationships in ways that create opportunities for field-level change.  \n\nElizabeth Chiarello\, Ph.D. is an Assistant Professor of Sociology at Saint Louis University. She is a medical sociologist and socio-legal scholar who focuses on institutional influences on frontline work\, intersections among organizational fields\, and social movement consequences. Her work has been published in several top sociological and socio-legal journals and she has received awards from multiple sections of the American Sociological Association.\n\nEvent Accessibility: \nRamp and elevator access at the E.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Culture\, History\, and Politics Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nIn Eastern Europe\, postwar changes paved the way for the building of a socialistic university\, something seen as one of many possible solutions to a rising need for university reform\nand education for the working classes. My research does not only address how we think about a particular university\, or even universities in general in communist-ruled Poland within their\nhistorical and sociological contexts. It contributes to our broader sense of the place of universities in social change – especially in the 20th century – and how we understand intellectuals and academics\nin their own fields of power and competition. My argument challenges the totalitarian interpretation of postwar history. In general\, it disagrees with the Sovietization notion and claims that the postwar\nreforms did not solely mean a ruthless convergence of Eastern Europe with the USSR model. I examine university reforms as a try to open higher education for working classes and trace its\nresults\, that is upward mobility and educational trajectories in postwar Poland. Finally\, I claim that the narrative about the political field’s domination of the research and science field is challenged by\ntracing the reproduction of prewar traditions and structures. If one considers state socialism as a modernizing system\, with all contradictions and difficulties\, then one might also gain a better understanding of the intended aims of the postwar reality.\nShort bio: Agata Zysiak is a historical sociologist working on postwar Poland\, modernization\, and industrial cities. Her recent prize-winning book \"Point of social origin\" examines project of a socialist university.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Beyond the Book: Authenticating the Profane
DESCRIPTION:This lecture considers the question of canon and authorization.  What constitutes canon and when was it constituted? What about new texts that were discovered that were not included into canons that were shaped centuries after these until-now texts were known? Should we or can we authenticate new texts or texts that were not known to be part of the canon? What about texts that were rejected from the canon?  How and why might we reconsider the status of texts  - and can we authenticate such texts that would otherwise be considered profane? How might we rethink “marginal” texts\, the translation of the profane and the sacred\, and the constitution of “canon”?\n\nIf you have a disability that requires a reasonable accommodation\, contact the Judaic Studies office at 734-763-9047 at least two weeks prior to the event.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Controlled Transfer of Electronic Wavepacket Motion Between Distant Atoms
DESCRIPTION:The establishment\, observation\, and potential control of correlated multi-electron dynamics is a complex problem of interest across disciplines with numerous applications in a variety of contexts\, from femtosecond interatomic Coulomb decay and attosecond charge migration within small molecules\, to energy transfer in photosynthetic systems\, to quantum control of few- and many-body systems\, and quantum information processing. The extreme sensitivity of Rydberg atoms to electric fields\, including those produced by neighboring atoms\, makes them superb candidates for studying such phenomena. In a quantum analogy to classical far-field radio transmission from a source to receiver antenna\, we have transferred electronic wavepacket motion established within Rydberg atoms in a dilute nearly-frozen gas to neighboring Rydberg atoms. The transfer is enabled by electron correlations resulting from electric field-controlled\, atom-atom couplings and relies on the use of both cold atom and ultrafast techniques. \n

SUMMARY:Other:Electrochemical sensors and scanning electrochemical sensors (SECM): a new tool to study biomaterials and associated biofilms
DESCRIPTION:                                                                         My research program at Oregon State University is involved in developing new electrochemical sensors to study microbial metabolism at high spatial and temporal resolution. We are specifically interested in studying bacterial metabolic interactions with other bacterial species\, biomaterials\,\nand the immediate microenvironment surrounding the bacteria. We have developed micron-sized Ca2+\, pH\, H2O2\, NH4+ and lactate sensors to be used as a chemical probe in scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) to quantitatively map the local chemical environment produced by live dental biofilms and their effects on the integrity of the dental composites. In\naddition\, we are also involved in synthesizing a variety of glucose-modified dendron molecules to construct bacterial microhabitat using 3D hydrogel printing to study the bacterial metabolic interactions between different bacterial species.                                                                                                               \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nDipankar Koley (Oregon State University)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Explodity: Sound\, Image\, and Word in Russian Futurist Book Art
DESCRIPTION:The product of close collaborations between poets and painters\, the Russian artists’ books created between 1910 and 1915 are like no others. Taking her new book\, Explodity\, as a launching point\, Nancy Perloff will argue that Futurist books were meant to be read\, looked at\, and listened to.  The advanced abstraction of Kazimir Malevich offers a crucial context for manifestos by avant-garde poets Velimir Khlebnikov and Alexei Kruchenykh that dismissed referentiality and advocated the new poetic and phonic language of zaum (beyond the mind).  Futurist and Formalist theory provide the basis for close readings of word-image-sound interplay in several Futurist books\, including Pomada (Pomade) and Mirskontsa (Worldbackwards). The talk will conclude by considering the wide-ranging legacy of these works in the midcentury global movement of sound and concrete poetry.\n\nwww.getty.edu/ZaumPoetry\n(an interactive website which exemplifies the interplay of word-image-sound in Futurist book art through audio recordings\, Russian transliterations\, and English translations of 10 poems\, presented directly within the pages of the artists’ books)\n\nNancy Perloff (Ph.D. University of Michigan) is curator of modern and contemporary collections at the Getty Research Institute (GRI). Trained as a musicologist and as an art historian\, she pursues scholarship on the Russian avant-garde\, European modernism\, and the relationship between music and the visual arts. Her exhibitions at the GRI include Monuments of the Future: Designs by El Lissitzky (1998–99)\; Sea Tails: A Video Collaboration (2004)\; Tango with Cows: Book Art of the Russian Avant-Garde\, 1910–1917 (2008–9)\; and she led the curatorial team for World War I: War of Images\, Images of War (2014). Perloff is the author of Art and the Everyday: Popular Entertainment and the Circle of Erik Satie (Oxford\, 1991) and coeditor\, with Brian M. Reed\, of Situating El Lissitzky: Vitebsk\, Berlin\, Moscow (Getty\, 2003).   She has written and lectured widely on avant-garde composers such as John Cage and David Tudor.  Most recently\, she published Explodity: Sound\, Image\, and Word in Russian Futurist Book Art (Getty\, 2016).  Her exhibition\, Concrete Poetry: Words and Sounds in Graphic Space\, was on view at the GRI from March 28 – July 30\, 2017.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Justice Albie Sachs: Getting to Know Nelson Mandela
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for the 2018 William W. Bishop Lecture in International Law: Getting to Know Nelson Mandela\, to be presented by Justice Albie Sachs\, formerly of the South African Constitutional Court. \n\nThis lecture is free and open to the public. \n\nJustice Albie Sachs has devoted his life to the defense of human rights\, both in his home country of South Africa and throughout the world. As a young attorney\, Justice Sachs defended people charged under the racist statutes and repressive security laws of apartheid. Forced into exile in 1966\, he worked with the African National Congress from abroad\, where his criticism of apartheid made him the victim of a car bombing in Mozambique in 1988. Justice Sachs lost an arm and the sight of one eye in the attack\, but recovered and returned to South Africa as a member of the Constitutional Committee to assist South Africa’s transition into a constitutional democracy. He was later appointed by President Nelson Mandela to serve on the South African Constitutional Court. \n\nThe Bishop Lecture was established by the friends and family of Professor Bishop following his death in 1987.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Writing Roman History in China in the First Half of the Twentieth Century
DESCRIPTION:In the first half of the twentieth-century\, the writing of Roman History in a semi-independent China was dominated by the Chinese agenda of national revival and modernization rather than a scholarly desire to investigate Roman history for its own sake. This\, however\, did not detract from the complexity with which the Chinese reformists\, thinkers\, and writers engaged with Rome. It is precisely this complexity that this paper will try to unfold. In particular\, Ancient Rome\, as a negative exemplum\, loomed large in the Chinese discourses on a range of key issues including the role of religion in nation building\, the (re)formation of \"national character\"\, and the relationship between unification/centralization and local autonomy. To a great extent\, Ancient Rome functioned as a site where evaluation of China’s past\, concern over China’s fate\, search for historical lessons\, and a close attention to contemporary European affairs and their historical precedents were intricately coalesced.\n\nJinyu Liu is Associate Professor of Classical Studies at DePauw University\, and also Distinguished Guest Professor at Shanghai Normal University (2014-2020). Her research interests include social relations in Roman cities\, the non-elite in the Roman Empire\, Latin epigraphy\, the reception of Graeco-Roman classics in China\, as well as translating classical texts in a global context. As the Principal Investigator of “Translating the Complete Corpus of Ovid’s Poetry into Chinese with Commentaries\"\, a multi-year project sponsored by a Chinese National Social Science Foundation Major Grant (2015-2020)\, she is collaborating with more than a dozen scholars from four countries to translate the complete works of Ovid (43 BCE-17 CE)\, arguably the most popular poet of ancient Rome\, into Chinese for the first time.

SUMMARY:Performance:Altan
DESCRIPTION:Altan\, named for Loch Altan in Ireland's County Donegal\, has arguably had a wider impact on audiences over the last 30 years than any other traditional Irish band. Their dynamic and warm live performances mix the most touching old Irish songs with hard-hitting reels and jigs\, and the band members' interest in and sheer enjoyment of each other musically is apparent even to audience members new to the Irish tradition. For the Irish music enthusiast\, Altan has a treasure trove of brilliant moves to offer: the mix of sounds from Donegal with outside influences\, the sheer virtuosity of the players\, the beauty\, delicate singing\, and down-to-earth charm of singer and fiddler Mairead Ni Mhaonaigh. Anywhere they go\, a concert by Altan is the Irish music event of the year. Popmatters calls the band's latest album\, \"The Widening Gyre\,\" \"a defining moment for Altan.\"

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:Mr. Vignaud's Maps: Unraveling a Cartographic Mystery from the Golden Age of Dutch Cartography
DESCRIPTION:In 1922 the University of Michigan acquired the library of Henry Vignaud\, an American diplomat living in Paris\, whose extensive personal library included thousands of books\, atlases\, maps\, and other publications. Many of Vignaud's maps were extracted from broken atlases\, originally published by the illustrious Hondius and Janssonius publishing houses. Staff in the Clark Library sought to organize these fascinating maps based on their physical characteristics and similarities\, with the ultimate goal of reassembling the original atlases.\n\nThis exhibit and the accompanying online exhibit (https://www.lib.umich.edu/online-exhibits/exhibits/show/rediscoveringvignaud) feature the results of their remarkable findings\, as well as a glimpse into the history of the Golden Age of mapmaking in 17th century Amsterdam.

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:Class / Instruction:Women and Aging through Literature and Reflective Writing
DESCRIPTION:Essays\, fiction\, poems\, and memoir excerpts written by women about aging will be used in this study group as prompts for reflective writing. This is not a creative writing class\, but an opportunity to reflect more deeply about what aging means to us as women. \n\nFollowing a discussion\, members write during class and voluntarily share their writing with the group. Sample prompts might include: Write about a fear you have about growing older or describe a strength or positive attribute that has emerged in you as you’ve grown older. \n\nBeth Spencer is a geriatric social worker\, avid reader\, and writer with decades of teaching experience.  This study group for those 50 and over will be held on Wednesdays from March 28 to April 25.

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:HET Brown Bag Series | A Natural Generalization of the Standard Randall-Sundrum Framework and its Phenomenological Implications
DESCRIPTION:In the first part of the talk\, I will introduce a very natural extension of well-motivated extra-dimensional framework of Randall-Sundrum type. Such a generalization is motivated by (null) results from both high energy (LHC) and low energy (flavor\, CP\, and electroweak precision) experiments. In particular\, null results from the LHC led us to consider the possibility that little hierarchy may exist. In addition to the consistency with low energy bounds\, our generalization can address the question of the form of TeV scale new physics we can expect. I will argue that such new physics appearing at the TeV scale is in the form of vector-like confinement with new states interacting with SM through mostly flavor universal couplings. In the second part of the talk\, I will discuss several exciting signals probable at the LHC and in future colliders.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:P&SC & Diversity Committee Colloquium Keynote Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Title – Emerging Data on the Role of the Impostor Phenomenon in Mental Health and Academic Outcomes\n\nAbstract – Research on the impostor phenomenon has been around since the 70s\, with much of the focus being on white women. However\, there is a growing body of research that examines impostorism among students of color in predominantly white school settings. In this talk emerging data will be presented from several studies that examines the role of the impostor phenomenon in mental health and academic outcomes among college students. There will be particular attention paid to the experiences of students of color\, while also examining presumed gender differences.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MIPSE Seminar | Emerging Research Topics in Plasma Science: Plasma-control of Electromagnetic Waves and High Energy Density Plasma Jets and Their Interactions
DESCRIPTION:This presentation will focus on two emerging areas of plasma science research at Stanford. The first part of will provide an overview of recent work at Stanford and of a Stanford-led multi-university effort on the integration of plasmas into metamaterials and photonic crystals for the control of electromagnetic waves in the centimeter – millimeter range of the spectrum.  Plasmas\, because of their unusual dielectric constant\, provide a means of reconfiguring otherwise passive microwave photonic and plasmonic devices that are used to filter\, switch\, or redirect electromagnetic waves. The second part will focus on recent studies of high energy density plasmas and the formation of hypervelocity plasma jets of extreme density (1018 cm-3) and temperature (50-100 eV).  The interactions of these jets with surfaces generate an extreme heat flux (>10 GW/m2) and can serve as simulators of disruptions that occur in magnetic confinement fusion reactors. We will describe efforts at characterizing the jet structure including first videography of unsteady dynamics\, and also recent measurements of surface heat deposition rates. \n\nMark A. Cappelli is a Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Stanford University\, and co-Director of the Engineering Physics Major. He received his B.Sc. degree in Physics from McGill University\, and his M.A.Sc. and Ph.D. from the University of Toronto in Aerospace Sciences. The focus of his Ph.D. dissertation involved the formation of high density plasma channels to facilitate the propagation of ion beams to targets in light-ion beam fusion. He joined the Stanford faculty in 1987. At Stanford\, he has studied the applications of plasmas to space propulsion\, materials synthesis and processing\, combustion\, aerodynamics\, and most recently\, to the control of electromagnetic waves.\n\nThe seminar will be web-simulcast.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:2018 Ford Distinguished Lecture in Physics |  From Bits to Qubits: A Quantum Leap for Computers
DESCRIPTION:The steady increase in computational power of information processors over the past half-century has led to smart phones and the internet\, changing commerce and our social lives. Up to now\, the primary way that computational power has increased is that the electronic components have been made smaller and smaller\, but within the next decade it is expected to reach the fundamental limits imposed by the size of atoms. However\, it is possible that further huge increases in computational power could be achieved by building quantum computers\, which exploit in new ways of the laws of quantum mechanics that govern the physical world. This talk will discuss the challenges involved in building a large-scale quantum computer as well as progress that we have made in developing a quantum computer using silicon quantum dots.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Nam Center Colloquium Series | Crime of Violence: Forensic Medicine\, Dead Bodies\, & Legal Culture in Chosŏn Korea
DESCRIPTION:This lecture explores the theme of criminal justice in Chosŏn Korea (1392-1910) by investigating forensic medicine and the postmortem examination of dead bodies. It focuses on homicide cases to probe into the cultural meaning of interpersonal violence. Many homicide stories we find in legal archives continue to reflect in our present-day society. These stories provide a window for us to understand how criminal justice was socially and culturally shaped and altered over time. By analyzing a wide array of sources\, including forensic texts\, inquest reports\, criminal records\, legal codes\, royal edicts\, and veritable records\, this study demonstrates the development of forensic medicine and how forensic practice was associated with Neo-Confucian concepts such as benevolent rule\, leniency\, and judicial prudence (hŭmhyul 欽恤).

SUMMARY:Other:Protonic solar cells by sensitization of passive ion-selective polymers with photoacid dyes
DESCRIPTION:                                                                                                                                                Most electrochemical technologies that operate under ambient conditions require ion-conducting polymer electrolytes. These polymers are passive in that electric bias drives ion migration in the thermodynamically favored direction. Recently\, my group engineered two important features into passive ion-selective polymers to introduce the active function of photovoltaic action and demonstration of an ionic solar cell. These features were covalent bonding of photoacid dyes to the polymers such that absorption of visible light resulted in liberation of protons\, and synthesis of polymer membranes with charge-selective contacts to facilitate separation and collection of H+ and OH–. Light excitation from either side of the polymer membranes resulted in H+ dissociation followed by directional charge collection. The charge collection direction was dictated by the electrostatic asymmetry in the polymers\, which was formed due to an external pH difference setup across the membrane.\n\nJoining a monopolar cation-selective polymer to a monopolar anion-selective polymer forms a bipolar membrane\, which mimics a rectifying semiconductor pn-junction diode in form and function\, and is able to maintain pH differences across it. Using a photoacid-dye-modified bipolar membrane\, we measured a photovoltage of ~120 mV under conditions of solar-simulated excitation. In addition to more traditional electrochemical techniques\, insights into materials function were obtained using finite-element numerical modeling of photoacid kinetics and membrane physics\; beam-line x-ray scattering measurements\; electrochemical impedance\, solid-state NMR\, and pulsed-laser spectroscopies\; and fluorescence\, electron\, and force microscopies. Collectively\, these photo-responsive polymers represent a new class of functional materials that use light to trigger changes in local ion concentration and electrostatic potential. These local changes can be used to affect macroscopic processes such as direct sunlight-driven redox chemistry or desalination of salt water\, chemical catalysis\, and triggering of cellular processes. \n\nReferences\n(1) Reiter\, R.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IOE 899 Seminar: Paul Grigas\, University of Berkeley
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nMany real-world analytics problems involve two significant challenges:  prediction and optimization.  Due to the typically complex nature of each challenge\, the standard paradigm is to predict\, then optimize.  By and large\, machine learning tools are intended to minimize prediction error and do not account for how the predictions will be used in a downstream optimization problem.  In contrast\, we propose a new and very general framework\, called Smart “Predict\, then Optimize” (SPO)\, which directly leverages the optimization problem structure\, i.e.\, its objective and constraints\, for designing successful predictive models.  A key component of our framework is the SPO loss function\, which measures the quality of a prediction by comparing the objective values of the solutions generated using the predicted and observed parameters\, respectively.  Training a model with respect to the SPO loss is computationally challenging\, and therefore we also develop a surrogate loss function\, called the SPO+ loss\, which upper bounds the SPO loss\, has desirable convexity properties\, and is statistically consistent under mild conditions.  We also propose a stochastic gradient descent algorithm which allows for situations in which the number of training samples is large\, model regularization is desired\, and/or the optimization problem of interest is nonlinear or integer.  Finally\, we perform computational experiments to empirically verify the success of our SPO framework in comparison to the standard predict-then-optimize approach.  This is joint work with Adam Elmachtoub.\n\nThis talk is based on the following paper:  https://arxiv.org/abs/1710.08005\n\nBio:\nPaul Grigas is an assistant professor of Industrial Engineering and Operations Research at the University of California\, Berkeley.  Paul’s research interests are in large-scale convex optimization\, statistical machine learning\, and data-driven decision making.  He is also broadly interested in the applications of data analytics\, and he has worked on applications in online advertising.  Paul was awarded an NSF CRII Award\, the 2015 INFORMS Optimization Society Student Paper Prize\, and an NSF Graduate Research Fellowship.  Paul received his PhD in Operations Research from MIT in 2016.  Previously\, he earned a B.S. in Operations Research and Information Engineering from Cornell University.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Author’s Forum Presents \"Golem: Modern Wars and Their Monsters\"
DESCRIPTION:Maya Barzilai and Kathryn Babayan discuss Barzilai's new book \"Golem: Modern Wars and Their Monsters\,\" a monster tour of the Golem narrative across various cultural and historical landscapes. Book signing and sale courtesy of Nicola's Books.\n\nAbout the book: \n\n\"In the 1910s and 1920s\, a “golem cult” swept across Europe and the U.S.\, later surfacing in Israel. Why did this story of a powerful clay monster molded and animated by a rabbi to protect his community become so popular and pervasive? The golem has appeared in a remarkable range of popular media: from the Yiddish theater to American comic books\, from German silent film to Quentin Tarantino movies. This book showcases how the golem was remolded\, throughout the war-torn twentieth century\, as a muscular protector\, injured combatant\, and even murderous avenger. This evolution of the golem narrative is made comprehensible by\, and also helps us to better understand\, one of the defining aspects of the last one hundred years: mass warfare and its ancillary technologies.\n\n\"In the twentieth century the golem became a figure of war. It represented the chaos of warfare\, the automation of war technologies\, and the devastation wrought upon soldiers’ bodies and psyches. Golem: Modern Wars and Their Monsters draws on some of the most popular and significant renditions of this story in order to unravel the paradoxical coincidence of wartime destruction and the fantasy of artificial creation. Due to its aggressive and rebellious sides\, the golem became a means for reflection about how technological progress has altered human lives\, as well as an avenue for experimentation with the media and art forms capable of expressing the monstrosity of war.\"

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Economics and the Presidency: Talk by Brian Becker\, Economist and Historian
DESCRIPTION:All presidents have struggled with key economic issues that defined their times\, and often impacted their success. Over time\, presidents have had to navigate larger and more complex economies with ever-increasing federal budgets. George Washington oversaw a $7 million budget in 1794. The 2017 budget is more than 500\,000 times that level at nearly 4 trillion dollars. \n\nEconomist and historian\, Brian Becker\, explores factors contributing to dramatic economic increases\, including growing population\, improved citizens’ output\, and inflation as he reviews past presidents’ responses to these significant pressing economic issues in American history.\n\nBecker also explains the “misery index” (the sum of the inflation rate and the unemployment rate)\, and praises President Ford for presiding over the most dramatic decline ever seen at that time in the misery index\n\nFree Admission. Free Parking. Reception follows program.

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:Mr. Vignaud's Maps: Unraveling a Cartographic Mystery from the Golden Age of Dutch Cartography
DESCRIPTION:In 1922 the University of Michigan acquired the library of Henry Vignaud\, an American diplomat living in Paris\, whose extensive personal library included thousands of books\, atlases\, maps\, and other publications. Many of Vignaud's maps were extracted from broken atlases\, originally published by the illustrious Hondius and Janssonius publishing houses. Staff in the Clark Library sought to organize these fascinating maps based on their physical characteristics and similarities\, with the ultimate goal of reassembling the original atlases.\n\nThis exhibit and the accompanying online exhibit (https://www.lib.umich.edu/online-exhibits/exhibits/show/rediscoveringvignaud) feature the results of their remarkable findings\, as well as a glimpse into the history of the Golden Age of mapmaking in 17th century Amsterdam.

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:THE WHY AND HOW OF BEHAVIORAL ECONOMIC STRATEGIES TO PROMOTE HEALTHY DECISIONS
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Kullgren is a Research Scientist at the Ann Arbor VA Center for Clinical Management Research and an Assistant Professor at the University of Michigan. He holds undergraduate and medical degrees from Michigan State and a Master of Public Health degree from Michigan. He was a resident at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and an RWJF Clinical Scholar at Penn. His research aims to help patients and clinicians make good decisions about health and health care.\n\nThe field of behavioral economics – which combines insights from \neconomics and psychology to better understand and shape human behavior – has recently offered new solutions to longstanding problems in our health care system. In this talk\, \nKullgren will examine the underpinnings\, promise\, and perils of behavioral economic strategies to improve patient and clinician decisions about health and health care.\n\nThis is the fourth in a six-lecture series. The subject is Behavioral and Social Sciences: Real World Applications. The next lecture will be April 5\, 2018. The title is Motivated Reasoning About Climate Change.

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:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Thursday Lecture Series | Childbirth and the Arts of Judgment in Medieval Japan
DESCRIPTION:The organization of childbirth in elite households of medieval Japan (1185–1336) required serious planning and decisive orchestration. Although the initial preparations for an imperial consort’s labour could take several months\, what were to unfold inside the secluded birth chamber could easily escalate into both medical and ritual emergencies and necessitate a swift response from the consort’s female and male relatives\, ritual specialists\, physicians\, and midwives. Based on recently discovered medieval Buddhist manuscripts\, visual sources\, diaries\, and court protocols\, this talk will focus on the “gendered choreographies” taking place inside and outside the birth chamber and the actions of people who inhabited such spaces during the tense moments of royal consort’s labour. \n\nAnna Andreeva (PhD\, Cantab.) is a research fellow at the University of Heidelberg. She is the author of Assembling Shinto: Buddhist Approaches to Kami Worship in Medieval Japan (Harvard Asia Center\, 2017) and a co-editor of Transforming the Void: Embryological Discourse and Reproductive Imagery in East Asian Religions (Brill\, 2016).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Kyra Pazan\, Doctoral Candidate\, Department of Anthropology - University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:The southern African coastlines have long been the focal point of Middle Stone Age (MSA) research in the subcontinent. Less is known\, however\, about contemporary developments in the interior. The 80\,000-year old lithic assemblage from Melikane\, a highland rockshelter in the Maloti-Drakensburg Mountains\, currently represents Lesotho’s oldest chronometrically dated archaeology. Melikane’s montane environment would have presented unique challenges to early humans due to its rugged topography\, lower temperatures\, and sparsely distributed floral and faunal resources. Questions arise: what adaptations allowed continuous occupation of the region? Were technologies specifically tailored for life in highlands or a result of cultural ties with lowland populations?  Analysis of the Last Interglacial stone tool assemblage from Melikane suggests that these foragers persisted by creating regionally adapted technologies. Rather than reaching out to coastal populations to create “safety nets\,” highlanders adapted in situ and were confined to circumscribed social networks. These results imply significant behavioral flexibility early on in the Late Pleistocene\, further increasing our understanding of the evolution of modern humans.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Rise & Fall of the Miraculous Welfare Machine: Immigration and social democracy in 20th century Sweden
DESCRIPTION:For three quarters of a century\, Sweden has globally been treated as the quintessential example of the advanced Welfare State. Since the 1960s\, Sweden has also experienced a dramatic transformation from a relatively homogeneous nation to a visibly multiethnic society. In recent years\, Sweden has been celebrated by many for having Europe’s most generous refugee policies (at least until the crisis of 2015)\, but also been used as a warning example by others – e.g. by president Trump. \n\nWhat is the relationship between national identity and ethnic homogeneity on the one hand\, and conditions of participation in the benefits of a far-reaching Welfare State\, on the other? How has this issue been dealt with during the formation of the Swedish Welfare State and during later crises\, when the identity of the “People” of the “People’s Home” has been put into question? What has\, in this regard\, been the effects of the Social Democrats’ dominant role in Swedish politics? \n\nSuch questions are addressed in a recently published book by professor Carly Elizabeth Schall\, Purdue University\, Indiana. \n\nFree and open to the public\; sponsored by the Scandinavian Program of the Department of Germanic Languages and Literatures.\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:Lecture / Discussion:AE585 Graduate Seminar Series - Coordinated Persistent Airborne Information Gathering: Cloud Robotics in the Clouds
DESCRIPTION:Eric Frew\, Associate Professor\, University of Colorado Boulder\n\nFixed-wing aerial robotic technology has advanced to the point where platforms fly persistent sampling missions far from remote operators. Likewise\, complex atmospheric phenomena can be simulated in near real-time with increasing levels of fidelity. Furthermore\, cloud computing technology enables distributed computation on large\, dynamic data sets. Combining autonomous airborne sensors with environmental models dispersed over multiple communication and computation channels enables the collection of information essential for examining the fundamental behavior of complex environmental phenomena. Dr. Frew will describe progress made over the last decade developing software algorithms and hardware systems for coordinated persistent airborne information gathering.  Applications that will be discussed include targeted observation of supercell thunderstorms and tornado formation\, persistent sampling of atmospheric fronts for severe storm forecasting\, and cooperative control for detecting\, localizing\, and tracking radio emitters.\n\nAbout the speaker...\n\nDr. Eric W. Frew is an associate professor in the Ann and H.J. Smead Aerospace Engineering Sciences Department and Director of the Autonomous Systems Interdisciplinary Research Theme (ASIRT). Dr. Frew has been designing and deploying unmanned aircraft systems for over twenty years. His research efforts focus on autonomous flight of heterogeneous unmanned aircraft systems\; distributed information-gathering by mobile robots\; miniature self-deploying systems\; and guidance and control of unmanned aircraft in complex atmospheric phenomena. Dr. Frew was co-leader of the team that performed the first-ever sampling of a severe supercell thunderstorm by an unmanned aircraft.

DESCRIPTION:Fernando E. Boada\, Ph.D.\nProfessor of Radiology\, Psychiatry and Neurosurgery\nDirector\, Center for Advanced Imaging Innovation and Research\nCo-Director\, Center for Biomedical Imaging\nNew York University\n\n\n“MR/PET Synergies: Correcting Motion During Dynamic MR/PET Scans Through Self\nRefocused Navigators and Coil Fingerprints”\n \nAbstract:\nMR/PET scanners allow simultaneous acquisition of MR and PET scans during clinical examinations. This feature has great potential to improve our ability to capitalize on PET’s unique capabilities to probe important metabolic processes in vivo. Examples include: improving image quality for low specific activity tracers through the use of joint MR/PET reconstruction\, reduction of radiation exposure (90%) for standard-of-care Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) scans\, improvement of tracer kinetic analysis and motion correction of dynamic PET scans. Motion correction of dynamic PET scans\, in particular\, is an unmet challenge as the use of external gating signals for retrospective motion correction has proven unreliable for a variety of different reasons. In this presentation\, we demonstrate an approach for motion correction of MR/PET scans based on the use of short\, self-refocused\, multidimensional navigator modules. These modules allow continuous (every TR) tracking of abdominal motion through monitoring of the time course of the “generalized projections” spatially encoded by the navigator modules. We demonstrate\, using in-vivo as well as motion phantom data\, that these modules are compatible with both 3D and 2D MRI- sequences and that their use allows the removal of large (60%) quantitative biases in PET scans due to multi-dimensional (i.e.\, cardiac and respiratory) motion blur.

SUMMARY:Other:Oxyfunctionalization of Remote C–H Bonds of Aliphatic Amines via Decatungstate Photocatalysis
DESCRIPTION:                                                                                                                                                Derivatized aliphatic amines represent a common and important class of chemical building blocks prevalent in the pharmaceutical\, agrochemical and material industry. As a result\, approaches to directly install functionality on simple and unbiased amine precursors remain of paramount importance.  While functionalizing alpha to the nitrogen has been well-studied and numerous methods exist\, achieving remote amine functionalization remains largely underdeveloped. Consequently\, we reasoned that a direct and protecting group free oxygenation of aliphatic amines (to arrive at keto-amine products) would provide an ideal means for introducing diverse functionality. Through the use of high throughput experimentation (HTE) a photochemical oxidation was identified that relied upon hydrogen peroxide (or oxygen) as the oxidant in combination with a non-precious metal photocatalyst. These conditions were shown to selectively oxidize a series of diverse aliphatic amine starting materials to their remotely oxidized analogs and was amenable to scale-up in  flow.                                                                     \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nDanielle Schultz (Merck - Enabling Technologies Group)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Law and Economics Workshop: Noncompetes in the US Labor Force
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nUsing nationally representative survey data on 11\,505 labor force participants\, we examine the use\, implementation\, and effects of noncompete agreements. Nearly 1 in 5 labor force participants were bound by noncompetes in 2014\, and nearly 40% had signed at least one in the past. Noncompetes are more likely to be found in high-skill\, high-paying jobs\, but they are also surprisingly common in low-skill\, low-paying jobs. We document that less than 10% of employees negotiate over noncompetes\, that roughly one-third of noncompetes are signed after accepting the job offer\, and that nearly two-thirds of job applicants had no alternative job opportunities when they were asked to agree to a noncompete. Differences in the competitive circumstances under which noncompetes are signed are associated with starkly different outcomes for employees: those presented with a noncompete before they accept a job offer and those who have alternative employment options earn 19% higher wages\, receive 14% more training\, and are 13% more satisfied in their job than those not bound by noncompetes. However\, those asked to sign after accepting an offer and/or without other employment options are 15% less satisfied in their job and experience no wage and training benefits. In contrast to the existing literature\, we find little role for the enforceability of noncompetes in explaining their use and their association with wages and training.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:APIA Documentary Screening: \"And Then They Came For Us\"
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a free screening of\, \"And Then They Came For Us.\" Donna Nagata of Pychology and Matthew Stiffler of Arab & Muslim American Studies will make opening remarks. This event is free and open to the public. Popcorn and soda will be provided.\n\nAbout the Film:\nSeventy-five years ago\, Executive Order 9066 paved the way to the profound violation of constitutional rights that resulted in the forced incarceration of 120\,000 Japanese Americans.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Brian Selznick: Struck With Wonder
DESCRIPTION:Brian Selznick has been making children’s books since 1991. His illustrated novel The Invention of Hugo Cabret won the 2008 Caldecott medal and was the basis for Martin Scorsese’s Oscar-winning movie Hugo. Wonderstruck\, his 2011 follow up to The Invention of Hugo Cabret was made into a movie by celebrated filmmaker Todd Haynes with a screenplay by Selznick. The Marvels\, the third book in a trilogy loosely connected to Hugo and Wonderstruck by themes of family and discovery\, was published in 2016. Celebrated as much for their stunning object quality as for their rich narrative\, Selznick’s books are best summarized in his own words: “It’s not exactly a novel\, not quite a picture book\, not really a graphic novel\, or a flip book or a movie\, but a combination of all these things.” Selznick has also worked as a puppeteer and a set designer\, and began his career as a bookseller at Eeyore’s Books for Children in New York City. Working with Christopher Wheeldon at the Joffrey last year\, he wrote a new narrative for a re-imagined Nutcracker\, which takes place in Chicago during the construction of the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition. His newest project is a 200-page illustrated book for beginning readers called Baby Monkey\, Private Eye\, written by his husband\, Dr. David Serlin.\n\nThis Penny Stamps Speaker Series event is supported by the Zell Visiting Writers Series and the Chelsea River Gallery.

SUMMARY:Presentation:PCAP Exhibition: Keynote Speaker
DESCRIPTION:Kerry Myers grew up in a small town suburb of New Orleans.  He holds a B.A. in Communications and Journalism. In 1990\, he was sentenced to life without parole. Kerry served his time in the Louisiana State Penitentiary\, known famously as Angola. In 1996\, Wilbert Rideau\, the incarcerated editor of the prison’s news magazine The Angolite\, recruited Myers to write for the publication.  In June 2001\, when Rideau left prison\, Myers became only the second editor of The Angolite in the previous 25 years.  Under his guidance\, the magazine reported on the death penalty with a depth and clarity that was recognized with the Thurgood Marshall Journalism Award in 2007\, the first of many honors and awards. Taking on subjects like human trafficking\, juvenile life without parole\, aging\, Alzheimer’s and dementia in prison\, sentencing\, pardons and parole policy and more\, Myers guided the magazine as it became a resource for many top criminal justice and law programs in the US. In 2011 and 2012\, Myers wrote a critically acclaimed series on the history of women in the Louisiana penal system\, from Pre-Civil War to the present.  In December 2016\, Governor John Bel Edwards signed Myer’s second unanimous commutation of sentence\, recommended by the Board of Pardons and Parole. Since that time\, Myers has been working as a free-lance journalist and photographer\, and is active in criminal justice reform in Louisiana\, leading a wave of change in the state.\n\nFree - no tickets required

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Come home Charley Patton
DESCRIPTION:In 2005\, Ralph Lemon completed THE GEOGRAPHY TRILOGY\, a 10-year project that was a profound self-examination and a sustained inquiry into the social gravities of art\, race and identity at the turn of the 21st century. The Trilogy developed a global performance and visual language that was simultaneously modern and traditional\, East and West\, light and dark\, formal and free form. The primacy of process\, and the richness of materials that process uncovered-- artistic\, emotional\, historical-- created profound questions for Ralph as to how best to 'translate' the process and 'control' the materials in order to bring a work for audiences to the stage. The ongoing struggle between process and production created a tension that became a vital element in the Trilogy works\, which ultimately included dance/theater performances\, books\, video journals\, web projects and gallery exhibitions.\n\nPart 1: Geography (premiered 1997)\, began with Lemon's exploration into apparent African and post-African connections to his life as an African American. The cast included nine men of African descent from Cٴe d'Ivoire\, Guinea and the U.S.\n\nIn Part 2: Tree: (premiered 2000)\, Lemon directed his inquiry to Asia\, following his attraction to Buddhism and how it might generate an art aesthetic. Tree placed the energy and sound of the \"Africa\" of Geography next to a perceived Asian \"quiet\,\" while exploring the collision of tradition and modernity through contemporary performance. Performers included male and female dancers and musicians from Cٴe d'Ivoire\, China\, India\, Japan\, Taiwan and the United States.\n\nFor Part 3: Come home Charley Patton (premiered 2004)\, Lemon returned to America. Here\, he visited charged sites from the volatile history of the Civil Rights period\, performed ritual \"counter-memorials\" at lynching sites\, and danced in the living rooms of relatives of early blues musicians from the Mississippi Delta. Lemon also wove ideas from a mix of iconoclastic artists of contemporary literature and performance art\, from James Baldwin to Bruce Nauman\, into this historically charged research of rural America. Come Home Charley Patton investigated how different generations remember the same critical events and places\; what kind of narratives do justice to traumatic memories\; and what form memories can ultimately take through the aesthetic works of this project. The exploration of these elements contributed to a performance where documentary footage and autobiography shared the stage with the abstraction and fiction of contemporary dance/theater.\n\nChoreographed and directed by Ralph Lemon\nFeaturing performances by Djédjé Djédjé Gervais\, Darrell Jones\, Ralph Lemon\, Gesel Mason\, Okwui Okpokwasili\, and David Hamilton Thomson\n\nCome home Charley Patton (2004) is the culmination of Lemon's GEOGRAPHY TRILOGY\, \"a 10-year project that was a profound self-examination and a sustained inquiry into the social gravities of art\, race and identity at the turn of the 21st century. \n\n\"...For Come home Charley Patton\, Lemon visited charged sites from the volatile history of the Civil Rights period\, performed ritual 'counter-memorials' at lynching sites\, and danced in the living rooms of relatives of early blues musicians from the Mississippi Delta...

SUMMARY:Performance:Field Report
DESCRIPTION:The name of the band Field Report is an anagram of that of frontman Nolan Porterfield. Field Report will grab you by the short hairs and make you see yourself. You’ll get up to that mirror and you’ll feel your breath bouncing back\, hot and present\, slapping you invisibly\, eerily with real texture and a physicality\, like it could push you back a couple inches with the next attack. You’ll recognize it and this time\, you can dance and thrash through it to get out to the other end. When was the last time a band did all that? Country-ish band Campdogzz opens.
