SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach-Out Series: Listening to Puerto Rico
DESCRIPTION:On September 20\, 2017\, Hurricane María struck the island of Puerto Rico with catastrophic force\, shattering lives\, communities\, infrastructure and the physical environment. One year later\, Puerto Rico remains in the grips of an ongoing and systematic crisis. \n\nIn June 2018\, teams from the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame traveled to Puerto Rico  to film testimonies from Puerto Ricans from all walks of life. In this Teach-Out\, you will hear powerful narratives of loss and recovery\, abandonment and resilience\, failure and hope as you come to better understand Puerto Rico’s past\, present\, and future. \n\nThese individual testimonials are complemented by resources that are meant to deepen your understanding of an urgent multidimensional crisis that involves policy\, culture and history\,  political economy\, environmental loss\, civil infrastructure\, public health\, and human dignity. In this teach-out\, we spotlight  a number of successful organizations\, strategies and solutions that are contributing to Puerto Rico’s recovery. \n\nUnderstanding begins with listening. But “listening” is not just about hearing people’s words: it also implies taking notice of\, and acting on\, what people say. Shaped by the individual experience of everyday life\, the Listening to Puerto Rico Teach-Out invites you to hear many voices from a distressed but resilient island and discover how you can contribute to the island’s recovery. \n\nThis Teach-Out is a collaboration between the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame. \n\nPlease join us in listening to Puerto Rico.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Beyond Borders: Global Africa
DESCRIPTION:More than ever in the era of globalization\, ideas traverse geographic\, generational\, and cultural boundaries\, even as national borders seem to be closing. 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' reflects on this moment by considering how Africa and its artists have been at the center of complex histories of encounter and exchange for centuries. Bringing together a dazzling array of works made in Africa\, Europe\, and the United States from the nineteenth to twenty-first century\, the exhibition demonstrates the international scope and reach of art from Africa and the African diaspora. It also explores issues such as slavery\, colonization\, migration\, racism\, and identity at play in the objects and their histories. Highlights include paintings\, photographs\, sculpture\, and installations by Kudzanai Chiurai\, Omar Victor Diop\, Wangechi Mutu\, and Serge Alain Nitegeka. The exhibition will be accompanied by a fully-illustrated publication\, the tenth in the UMMA Books series.\n\nLead support for 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Office of Research\, African Studies Center\, and Department of Afroamerican and African Studies. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund and Susan Ullrich.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Marcel Dzama: A Jester's Dance
DESCRIPTION:Canadian artist Marcel Dzama is known for imaginative drawings\, sculptures\, dioramas\, and films rooted in the traditions of Surrealism\, Dada and outsider art. His 2013 film Une danse des bouffons (or A jester's dance) tells the tale of a romance between two principal figures of these traditions: Dada icon Marcel Duchamp and Brazilian sculptor Maria Martins\, who was the model for Duchamp's final\, enigmatic artwork Étant donnés. Rife with art-historical references not only to the work of Duchamp but also to Francisco Goya\, Francis Picabia and Joseph Beuys\, among others\, Une danse des bouffons navigates a sexually charged and mesmerizing world in which fantasy and torture run amok. The gallery presentation also includes a storyboard for the film featuring Dzama’s ink and watercolor drawings\, renderings of small hybrid figures resembling children’s book illustrations. The drawings underscore the fantastical elements in a film that combines the carnivalesque with a nightmarish exploration of the surreal.\n\nLead support for Marcel Dzama: A Jester's Dance is provided by Candy and Michael Barasch. Additional generous support is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Life Magazine 1947 Homecoming Photographs
DESCRIPTION:In October 1947\, just two years after the end of World War II\, the popular weekly news magazine LIFE sent staff photographers Lisa Larsen and Ralph Morse to cover homecoming weekend at the University of Michigan. The subsequent article\, “Michigan Homecoming\,” which brought national attention to UM’s athletic program\, featured a seven-page spread with photographs of the campus during a much-anticipated football game between the number-one ranked Michigan Wolverines and the University of Minnesota’s Golden Gophers. This installation provides a unique opportunity to view twenty-one images of that weekend\, many of which were not published in the original article\, recently donated to UMMA by John and Susan Edwards Harvith. Considered alongside the article\, these photographs of fervent fans\, strolling couples\, alumni making their annual pilgrimage\, and the game itself present LIFE magazine’s view of a giddy post-war public enjoying a return to American pastimes.\n\nThese photographs were recently gifted to UMMA by John (AB '69\, JD '73) and Susan (MMP '73) Harvith.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:See Through: Windows and Mirrors in Twentieth-Century Photography
DESCRIPTION:See Through: Mirrors and Windows in Twentieth-Century Photography brings together a group of images that are doubly framed—once by the camera lens and again by the border of a mirror or window. By refracting and distorting\, revealing and concealing\, these reflective and transparent surfaces both draw attention to the photographer’s efforts to frame the world and expose the contingent nature of reality. Highlights from the exhibition include works by Eugène Atget\, Robert Doisneau\, Elliott Erwitt\, Walker Evans\, André Kertész\, Joanne Leonard\, Danny Lyon\, and Joel Meyerowitz. By extending the limits of perception\, these witty and provocative works invite us to see [through to] new visual possibilities.\n\nLead support for See Through: Windows and Mirrors in Twentieth-Century Photography is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Urban Biographies\, Ancient and Modern
DESCRIPTION:Human beings are political animals\, said the Greek philosopher Aristotle: animals that live in the “polis\,” the Greek word for city. Over two thousand years later\, we are still political animals\, and the study of ancient cities is of abiding interest\, for our perceptions of the urban centers of the past continue to exert a powerful hold on modern culture. \n\nThis exhibition showcases three Classical cities where the University of Michigan sponsors field projects: Gabii in Italy\, Olynthos in Greece\, and Notion in Turkey. The archaeologists excavating these cities\, in collaboration with students and faculty from U-M’s Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, are comparing their findings to projects of urban rebuilding in contemporary Detroit\, asking two main questions: How do contemporary archaeological methods facilitate the study of both ancient and modern cities? And how can the study of the past help illuminate the challenges and opportunities facing Detroit today? \n\nLead Curator: Christopher Ratté\nCo-Curators: Lisa Nevett\, Nicola Terrenato\, and Kathy Velikov\n\nVisit the exhibition website: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/urban-biographies

SUMMARY:Well-being:FREE 4-Session Mindfulness Class
DESCRIPTION:SEPTEMBER SESSIONS ARE NOW FULL. \nSundays from 1:30 - 3:00pm (9/9\, 9/16\, 9/23\, 9/30)\n@ Ann Arbor District Library Meeting Room (343 S. Fifth Ave.\, Ann Arbor\, MI 48104)\n\nOctober class registration now open! https://events.umich.edu/event/55611\nDuring this 4-session class you will be introduced to the practice of mindfulness and learn several skills\, including meditation\, for managing stress and enriching your life. Mindfulness is about developing the ability to be fully attentive to all the moments of your life\, reducing the amount of time you spend worrying about the future or fretting about the past. An important aspect of mindfulness is developing a non-judgmental\, accepting\, even curious\, attitude about your moment-to-moment experience. The more you develop this attitude\, the less you will feel overwhelmed by changes and challenges in your life.\n\nKoru is designed to introduce you to the practice of mindfulness and get you well on your way to developing this important skill. Like learning any new skill\, it takes practice to get comfortable with mindfulness. We invite you to devote yourself to the study and practice of mindfulness over the next four weeks\, and we challenge you to stay curious about what evolves for you as you persistently and patiently practice living mindfully. We also have a free mobile app to track meditation practices for this course!\n\nFor any questions\, please contact Hitomi Katsumi at hkat@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Presentation:In Conversation: Between Windows and Mirrors
DESCRIPTION:This program is free and open to the public\, but space is limited. Please visit our website to register.\n \nPhotographs are often referred to as “reflections of life” or “windows on the world.” Yet\, photographers often seek to elide or distort clear views of the visual world. Join John Cantú\, arts writer\, and Jennifer Friess\, UMMA Assistant Curator of Photography\, for a conversation in the exhibition as they discuss issues of realism in photography in the exhibition \"See Through: Windows and Mirrors in Twentieth-Century Photography.\" Together with the audience\, they will explore a selection of images in depth—parsing the visual possibilities of images that employ windows and mirrors.\n\nLead support for \"See Through: Windows and Mirrors in Twentieth-Century Photography\" is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Performance:Riders In The Sky
DESCRIPTION:Forty years ago.  No laptops\, no cellular phones\, no Google\, no downloads\, no Skype\, no Tweets\, no Apple\, no Microsoft\, no texting\, no electric cars\, no Uber.  A different world.  But there were three young men with drive and wit who wanted to keep a special music alive.  They believed in preserving the heritage of Western Music and presenting it to a new generation.  They believed in entertaining\, and they did so … entertaining themselves as well as the audience!  And they believed in creating original Western Music to continue the tradition\, not just seal it in amber as a museum piece. What they did not realize at the time was that they would be doing the same thing 40 years later. Ranger Doug\, Too Slim and the late Windy Bill Collins played that first date on the bitter cold evening of November 11\, 1977\, at Herr Harry’s Frank N’ Stein Rathskeller in Nashville\, and small listening room dates followed.  By August of the following year demand was building\, and while Windy Bill left\, Woody Paul joined\, and the true professional beginnings of the band began at the Kentucky State Fair\, where the trio played 10 days for $2500—and bought their own rooms and meals out of that! \n\n A first wave followed\, including appearances on Austin City Limits\; recording contracts with Rounder\, then MCA\, then Columbia\; guest appearances on the Grand Ole Opry leading to membership in 1982\; and a three-year run on The Nashville Network with a TV show called “Tumbleweed Theater\,” which yet in turn led to a seven-year run on public radio with “Riders Radio Theater.  People Magazine\, interested in the Riders phenomenon\, ran a story which happy caught the eye of a Hollywood producer.\n\nAnd so the second wave broke\, sending the boys to Hollywood to star in “Riders In The Sky” on CBS for a year on Saturday mornings\, introducing them to yet another generation.  More recordings\, endless show dates\, and television appearances followed for a decade before the fine folks at Pixar called and asked the quartet—by this time they had been joined by Joey the Cowpolka King—to sing a tune called “Woody’s Roundup” in the movie “Toy Story 2.”  Thus\, the third wave began\, highlighted by a number of projects for Disney\, including two albums\, both of which won GRAMMY Awards! The creation of satellite radio has recently given them a new platform\, as they continue to produce episodes of the award winning “Classic Cowboy Corral” on Sirius/XM.\n\nStill more road dates and recordings (several on their own Riders Radio Records label) and other film and television projects have filled the days and weeks and years\, and since the quartet has slowed up very little\, the numbers begin to add up:  an astonishing 7\,200+ appearances\, 35 years on the Grand Ole Opry\, 40 records albums (well\, now CDs\,) and tours of all 50 states and all over the world.  Honors accumulated as well.  In addition to the two Grammy Awards\, Riders received numerous awards from the Western Music Association\, including the highest: membership in the Western Music Hall of Fame\; numerous Wrangler awards from the Cowboy Hall of Fame and Western Heritage Museum\; awards from the Academy of Western Artists\; enshrinement in the Walkway of Western Stars\, and more.  What began as a celebration of classic Western Music and an evening of hilarity has become a career\, and that career has become a legend\, one which\, 40 years on\, shows no signs of stopping or even slowing down much.\n\nRanger Doug\, Too Slim\, Woody Paul and Joey the Cowpolka King … 40 years on\, “The Cowboy Way.\"

SUMMARY:Performance:3rd Annual Ark Community Sing
DESCRIPTION:The Ark is widely known to have one of the best singing audiences in the country. For the third year running\, we celebrate that with a full night devoted to songs that everyone can sing. Michigan’s own Matt Watroba has devoted the last few years of his musical work to spreading community singing throughout the country. Matt will transform the audience into a spontaneous choir. Says Matt: \"Community singing is not performing. It exists so that all willing singers\, at all levels of skill\, can experience the power of song and musical participation. Performing choruses and musical groups often spring out of the community singing experience\, but that is not the purpose—it’s just a welcomed consequence!\"

DESCRIPTION:This one-hour concert celebrates America’s diversity\, both ethnic and religious. Performers include SMTD faculty Caroline Helton\, Carmen Pelton\, Scott Piper\, George Shirley\, and Louise Toppin\, and SMTD alumni Rikki Morrow-Spitzer\, Benjamin Sieverding\, Kira Slovacek\, and Kimberly Haynes Stephens. SMTD Professor Timothy Cheek will serve as pianist. \n\nReading the source material that inspired each piece\, religious leaders on the concert will be Rabbi Sara O'Donnell Adler\, Chaplain\, U-M Michigan Medicine\, Imam Kamau Ayubbi\, Chaplain\, U-M Michigan Medicine\, Rev. Fr. James P. Conlon\, Pastor\, St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church\, Ann Arbor\, and Rev. Susan Schilperoort\, retired Minister\, Presbyterian Church USA.\n\nWhile in New York in 1894\, Czech composer Antonín Dvořák composed his cycle of 10 Biblical Songs for voice and piano\, set to various verses from the Book of Psalms in the Old Testament. Each song on this celebratory concert will be sung in the original Czech but preceded by an oral English translation of the particular psalm–recited\, in turns\, by a Catholic priest\, a Jewish rabbi\, a Muslim Imam\, and a Protestant minister\, as well as SMTD Chief Diversity and Inclusion Officer Freyja Harris.\n\nThe concert also celebrates ties between Czech composer Antonín Dvořák and the USA\, as he taught for several years at the National Conservatory in New York City\, and was the first to advocate for basing a national musical style on Negro Spirituals and Native American music at a time when American composers were looking to Europe for their model. Lastly\, the concert also celebrates the 100th anniversary of the birth of Czechoslovakia in 1918.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach-Out Series: Listening to Puerto Rico
DESCRIPTION:On September 20\, 2017\, Hurricane María struck the island of Puerto Rico with catastrophic force\, shattering lives\, communities\, infrastructure and the physical environment. One year later\, Puerto Rico remains in the grips of an ongoing and systematic crisis. \n\nIn June 2018\, teams from the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame traveled to Puerto Rico  to film testimonies from Puerto Ricans from all walks of life. In this Teach-Out\, you will hear powerful narratives of loss and recovery\, abandonment and resilience\, failure and hope as you come to better understand Puerto Rico’s past\, present\, and future. \n\nThese individual testimonials are complemented by resources that are meant to deepen your understanding of an urgent multidimensional crisis that involves policy\, culture and history\,  political economy\, environmental loss\, civil infrastructure\, public health\, and human dignity. In this teach-out\, we spotlight  a number of successful organizations\, strategies and solutions that are contributing to Puerto Rico’s recovery. \n\nUnderstanding begins with listening. But “listening” is not just about hearing people’s words: it also implies taking notice of\, and acting on\, what people say. Shaped by the individual experience of everyday life\, the Listening to Puerto Rico Teach-Out invites you to hear many voices from a distressed but resilient island and discover how you can contribute to the island’s recovery. \n\nThis Teach-Out is a collaboration between the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame. \n\nPlease join us in listening to Puerto Rico.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Animal Friends: Ceramic Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Marcia Polenberg loves animals\, each with its own unique personality\, intelligence and expressive range of emotions. Using terra-cotta sculpture clay\, Polenberg hand builds her ceramic animals\, seemingly bringing them to life. The face of each one-of-a-kind work of art expresses happiness\, surprise\, mischief\, or a free spirit. Every sculpture is glazed and fired many times\, building up a rich\, textured colored surface. Holding an MFA from the U-M Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design in ceramics and sculpture and a BA from the City University of New York in painting\, Polenberg widely exhibits her creative works in several media: ceramics\, paint\, graphite and pastel.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Celebrating Science & Art
DESCRIPTION:The brilliantly colored images in this exhibit were taken in the course of scientific research\, and are beautiful in their detail\, form and symmetry. For each one\, an accompanying explanation describes its significance. The subjects of the images are cells\, tissues and organs\, from a wide variety of biological sources (plants\, worms\, fruit flies\, fish\, mice and yes\, even human brain). The colors are added by investigators\, to allow them to see the otherwise transparent tissues. By looking at these microscopic images\, you will learn about research into normal embryonic development as well as cutting-edge investigations into diseases such as basal cell carcinoma\, bipolar disease\, epilepsy and cancer.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Innovations in Ornament
DESCRIPTION:This group show of jewelry and ornaments includes the work of Roger Martin\, who tackled the subject of a raven by relying on planes and shadow lines to imbue the surfaces of the bird with personality. Another one of the seven artists\, Lorraine Kolasa\, picked up the old fashioned art of tatting\, then cast tiny pieces of her handmade lace into sterling silver jewelry. Michael Nashef\, who spent half his life in war-torn Lebanon\, has created a series of innovative vessels and brooches. Other artists included in this exhibit are Kim Cridler\, Roger Smith\, Renee Zettle-Sterling and Ruth Taubman\, whose unmatched exuberance of color and 36 years of work and business innovation\, place her jewelry firmly on the national stage.

DESCRIPTION:Hava Gurevich’s colorful abstractions feature botanical\, aquatic and microscopic motifs as she explores repeating patterns in nature. Blending images from the real world and her imagination\, Organic Fiction celebrates nature in all its beauty\, chaos and complexity. Hava Gurevich received a BFA in photography from U-M and an MFA in painting from Illinois State University. Her creative process begins with photographs and sketches of details in nature\, such as tree branches\, ice patterns\, twisted vines\, and delicate spring blossoms. These drawings contribute to her personal vocabulary of shapes and gestures\, and she often digitally combines them with older paintings to become starting points of new works.

SUMMARY:Other:Clinical Science Brown Bag:  How to play 20 questions with nature and lose:  Reflections on 100 years of brain-training research
DESCRIPTION:Despite dozens of empirical studies and a growing body of meta-analytic work\, there is little consensus regarding the efficacy of cognitive training. In this review we examine why this substantial corpus has failed to answer the often-asked question\, “does cognitive training work?” We first define cognitive training and discuss the general principles underlying training interventions. Next we review historical interventions and discuss how findings from this early work remain highly relevant for current cognitive training research. We highlight a variety of issues preventing real progress in understanding the underlying mechanisms of training\, including the lack of a coherent theoretical framework to guide training research and methodological issues across studies and meta-analyses. Finally\, suggestions for correcting these issues are offered in the hope that we might make greater progress in the next 100 years of cognitive training research.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Women Can’t Be Catholic Priests: A Rebuttal
DESCRIPTION:We will explore and refute the many reasons used to deny women entry to the ordained ministry of priest through the centuries. This will include the excuse the Vatican currently uses to deny women the right to answer the call of their God to the priesthood. We will briefly discuss the factual evidence that there were female priests in Christianity from 125 AD into the 9th century. There will be time for questions and discussion and some possibly surprising revelations. An outline and list of references will be provided. Over the past 50 years there has been a wealth of academic and archeologic research interest in these topics and well over 100 books have been written. \n\nInstructor Peggy Clough is a retired Physical Therapist from UMMC. She was on faculty at the University of Wisconsin\, Madison and has lectured at five other universities. Over the past 10 years she has read and researched women’s roles in Christianity and the evidence that has been discovered supporting the ordination of women in the Roman Catholic Church. The timeline she authored entitled Ordination of Women in the Catholic Church: Facts and Discoveries has been published on the internet.\n\nThis study group for those 50 and above will meet on Mondays\, 10-12\, from September 17 through September 24.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral & Experimental Economics (SBEE): When Words Sweat: Identifying Signals for Loan Default in the Text of Loan Applications
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nThe authors present empirical evidence that borrowers\, consciously or not\, leave traces of their intentions\, circumstances\, and personality traits in the text they write when applying for a loan. This textual information has a substantial and significant ability to predict whether borrowers will pay back the loan over and beyond the financial and demographic variables commonly used in models predicting default. The authors use text-mining and machine-learning tools to automatically process and analyze the raw text in over 120\,000 loan requests from Prosper.com\, an online crowdfunding platform. The authors find that loan requests written by defaulting borrowers are more likely to include words related to their family\, mentions of God\, the borrower’s financial and general hardship\, pleading lenders for help\, and short-term focused words. The authors further observe that defaulting loan requests are written in a manner consistent with the writing style of extroverts and liars. Using a counterfactual analysis\, the authors demonstrate that applying their finding can yield a 9.7% additional return on investment.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CMENAS Colloquium Series. Fits and Starts
DESCRIPTION:---\nThe 2018 CMENAS Colloquium Series theme\, “The Process of Discovery: How Scholars Write Books Today” will discuss how in popular media\, writing is fantastically presented as a process whereby inspiration—a muse— comes to the writer (or fails to). In this fantasy\, writers type fiendishly or crumple up one sheet after another. The reality is at once more complicated and humble than this. Come discover how scholars discover. The colloquium series will feature presentations from CMENAS faculty on their recent book projects and will explore the research process from start to finish. \n---\n\nLecture Abstract:\nProfessor Muehlberger will be discussing the origins of her latest project\, a book now in production about how early Christians thought about death. In this lecture\, she will show that research projects\, especially book-length projects\, grow and develop over time in direct relationship to the opportunities that a writer takes to think about them. She encourages researchers to seek out opportunities to write about a project\, long before they are certain what the topic or approach will be. \n\nSpeaker Bio:\nEllen Muehlberger is Associate Professor of Christianity in late antiquity in the departments of Middle East Studies and History at the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor\, where she teaches graduate and undergraduate courses on ancient history\, contemporary religious traditions\, scholarly methods\, and Coptic and Syriac language. Muehlberger has held fellowships from the National Endowment for the Humanities and the American Council of Learned Societies. She edited Practice\, a 2017 collection of newly-translated primary sources about early Christian education\, asceticism\, and reading for the series Cambridge Editions of Early Christian Writings\, and her new book\, Moment of Reckoning: Imagined Death and Its Consequences in Late Ancient Christianity\, will appear with Oxford in Spring 2019. You can find her on Twitter @emuehlbe\n\n---\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Vox Populi Vox Dei: Populism\, Elitism and Private Reason
DESCRIPTION:Populists often claim that representatives represent the people by complying with their preferences and judgments. As Donald Trump argued in the National Republican Convention\, he represents 'the voice of the people'. Elitists\, by contrast\, argue that representatives are bound to decide wisely or correctly rather than conform blindly to popular sentiments.\n\nThis Article argues that the populist and elitist view of representation are both false.  It argues that representation indeed requires the representative to endorse the perspective and worldview of the represented. But often endorsing the perspective of the represented requires the representative to act against the actual convictions of the represented. More specifically\, to look at the world 'from the perspective of the represented' the representative’s decisions ought to satisfy the condition of justifiability-to the represented\, namely\, they must rest on reasoning that is accessible to the represented.\n\nThis understanding of representation has broader implications for political theory. It implies that private reason has important role to play in democratic politics: the constituency’s basic convictions should be taken into account in the reasoning of the representatives. Yet the duty of representation\, that requires that the representatives' reasons be accessible to the represented\, is only a pro tanto duty that can be overridden by conflicting normative considerations.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Recent Developments and Applications of Improved Fast Neutron Detectors
DESCRIPTION:Neutrons are hard to detect and until recently the technique used by Chadwick to identify the neutron in the 1930s has often been used to detect them. This method\, based on recoil proton detection\, does not provide detailed information on the neutron energy spectra unless one can do a neutron time-of-flight measurement (n-ToF). This is not always possible especially with the new generation of low b.g. underground accelerators designed for nuclear-astrophysics measurements.. Even when n-ToF is feasible\, it often is not very efficient as a long flight path must typically  be used together with a bunched and pulse-selected beam .  Recent developments in deuterated scintillators\, both liquids and recently crystalline\, can provide efficient detection of neutrons and their energy spectra w/o n-ToF. As will be illustrated\, these new detectors are proving to be especially useful for study of many types of rare nuclear reactions\, for home-land security applications\, for ion-beam dosimetry\, and for measurements of important reactions creating problematic neutrons in the large scintillators used for neutrino oscillation measurements  and for  dark-matter searches. \n\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach-Out Series: Listening to Puerto Rico
DESCRIPTION:On September 20\, 2017\, Hurricane María struck the island of Puerto Rico with catastrophic force\, shattering lives\, communities\, infrastructure and the physical environment. One year later\, Puerto Rico remains in the grips of an ongoing and systematic crisis. \n\nIn June 2018\, teams from the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame traveled to Puerto Rico  to film testimonies from Puerto Ricans from all walks of life. In this Teach-Out\, you will hear powerful narratives of loss and recovery\, abandonment and resilience\, failure and hope as you come to better understand Puerto Rico’s past\, present\, and future. \n\nThese individual testimonials are complemented by resources that are meant to deepen your understanding of an urgent multidimensional crisis that involves policy\, culture and history\,  political economy\, environmental loss\, civil infrastructure\, public health\, and human dignity. In this teach-out\, we spotlight  a number of successful organizations\, strategies and solutions that are contributing to Puerto Rico’s recovery. \n\nUnderstanding begins with listening. But “listening” is not just about hearing people’s words: it also implies taking notice of\, and acting on\, what people say. Shaped by the individual experience of everyday life\, the Listening to Puerto Rico Teach-Out invites you to hear many voices from a distressed but resilient island and discover how you can contribute to the island’s recovery. \n\nThis Teach-Out is a collaboration between the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame. \n\nPlease join us in listening to Puerto Rico.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Animal Friends: Ceramic Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Marcia Polenberg loves animals\, each with its own unique personality\, intelligence and expressive range of emotions. Using terra-cotta sculpture clay\, Polenberg hand builds her ceramic animals\, seemingly bringing them to life. The face of each one-of-a-kind work of art expresses happiness\, surprise\, mischief\, or a free spirit. Every sculpture is glazed and fired many times\, building up a rich\, textured colored surface. Holding an MFA from the U-M Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design in ceramics and sculpture and a BA from the City University of New York in painting\, Polenberg widely exhibits her creative works in several media: ceramics\, paint\, graphite and pastel.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Celebrating Science & Art
DESCRIPTION:The brilliantly colored images in this exhibit were taken in the course of scientific research\, and are beautiful in their detail\, form and symmetry. For each one\, an accompanying explanation describes its significance. The subjects of the images are cells\, tissues and organs\, from a wide variety of biological sources (plants\, worms\, fruit flies\, fish\, mice and yes\, even human brain). The colors are added by investigators\, to allow them to see the otherwise transparent tissues. By looking at these microscopic images\, you will learn about research into normal embryonic development as well as cutting-edge investigations into diseases such as basal cell carcinoma\, bipolar disease\, epilepsy and cancer.

DESCRIPTION:Hava Gurevich’s colorful abstractions feature botanical\, aquatic and microscopic motifs as she explores repeating patterns in nature. Blending images from the real world and her imagination\, Organic Fiction celebrates nature in all its beauty\, chaos and complexity.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Urban Biographies\, Ancient and Modern
DESCRIPTION:Human beings are political animals\, said the Greek philosopher Aristotle: animals that live in the “polis\,” the Greek word for city. Over two thousand years later\, we are still political animals\, and the study of ancient cities is of abiding interest\, for our perceptions of the urban centers of the past continue to exert a powerful hold on modern culture. \n\nThis exhibition showcases three Classical cities where the University of Michigan sponsors field projects: Gabii in Italy\, Olynthos in Greece\, and Notion in Turkey. The archaeologists excavating these cities\, in collaboration with students and faculty from U-M’s Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, are comparing their findings to projects of urban rebuilding in contemporary Detroit\, asking two main questions: How do contemporary archaeological methods facilitate the study of both ancient and modern cities? And how can the study of the past help illuminate the challenges and opportunities facing Detroit today? \n\nLead Curator: Christopher Ratté\nCo-Curators: Lisa Nevett\, Nicola Terrenato\, and Kathy Velikov\n\nVisit the exhibition website: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/urban-biographies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Beyond Borders: Global Africa
DESCRIPTION:More than ever in the era of globalization\, ideas traverse geographic\, generational\, and cultural boundaries\, even as national borders seem to be closing. 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' reflects on this moment by considering how Africa and its artists have been at the center of complex histories of encounter and exchange for centuries. Bringing together a dazzling array of works made in Africa\, Europe\, and the United States from the nineteenth to twenty-first century\, the exhibition demonstrates the international scope and reach of art from Africa and the African diaspora. It also explores issues such as slavery\, colonization\, migration\, racism\, and identity at play in the objects and their histories. Highlights include paintings\, photographs\, sculpture\, and installations by Kudzanai Chiurai\, Omar Victor Diop\, Wangechi Mutu\, and Serge Alain Nitegeka. The exhibition will be accompanied by a fully-illustrated publication\, the tenth in the UMMA Books series.\n\nLead support for 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Office of Research\, African Studies Center\, and Department of Afroamerican and African Studies. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund and Susan Ullrich.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Marcel Dzama: A Jester's Dance
DESCRIPTION:Canadian artist Marcel Dzama is known for imaginative drawings\, sculptures\, dioramas\, and films rooted in the traditions of Surrealism\, Dada and outsider art. His 2013 film Une danse des bouffons (or A jester's dance) tells the tale of a romance between two principal figures of these traditions: Dada icon Marcel Duchamp and Brazilian sculptor Maria Martins\, who was the model for Duchamp's final\, enigmatic artwork Étant donnés. Rife with art-historical references not only to the work of Duchamp but also to Francisco Goya\, Francis Picabia and Joseph Beuys\, among others\, Une danse des bouffons navigates a sexually charged and mesmerizing world in which fantasy and torture run amok. The gallery presentation also includes a storyboard for the film featuring Dzama’s ink and watercolor drawings\, renderings of small hybrid figures resembling children’s book illustrations. The drawings underscore the fantastical elements in a film that combines the carnivalesque with a nightmarish exploration of the surreal.\n\nLead support for Marcel Dzama: A Jester's Dance is provided by Candy and Michael Barasch. Additional generous support is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Life Magazine 1947 Homecoming Photographs
DESCRIPTION:In October 1947\, just two years after the end of World War II\, the popular weekly news magazine LIFE sent staff photographers Lisa Larsen and Ralph Morse to cover homecoming weekend at the University of Michigan. The subsequent article\, “Michigan Homecoming\,” which brought national attention to UM’s athletic program\, featured a seven-page spread with photographs of the campus during a much-anticipated football game between the number-one ranked Michigan Wolverines and the University of Minnesota’s Golden Gophers. This installation provides a unique opportunity to view twenty-one images of that weekend\, many of which were not published in the original article\, recently donated to UMMA by John and Susan Edwards Harvith. Considered alongside the article\, these photographs of fervent fans\, strolling couples\, alumni making their annual pilgrimage\, and the game itself present LIFE magazine’s view of a giddy post-war public enjoying a return to American pastimes.\n\nThese photographs were recently gifted to UMMA by John (AB '69\, JD '73) and Susan (MMP '73) Harvith.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:See Through: Windows and Mirrors in Twentieth-Century Photography
DESCRIPTION:See Through: Mirrors and Windows in Twentieth-Century Photography brings together a group of images that are doubly framed—once by the camera lens and again by the border of a mirror or window. By refracting and distorting\, revealing and concealing\, these reflective and transparent surfaces both draw attention to the photographer’s efforts to frame the world and expose the contingent nature of reality. Highlights from the exhibition include works by Eugène Atget\, Robert Doisneau\, Elliott Erwitt\, Walker Evans\, André Kertész\, Joanne Leonard\, Danny Lyon\, and Joel Meyerowitz. By extending the limits of perception\, these witty and provocative works invite us to see [through to] new visual possibilities.\n\nLead support for See Through: Windows and Mirrors in Twentieth-Century Photography is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:The strength of dynamic ties: Dynamics promote cooperation\, even in static ties
DESCRIPTION:One mechanism that promotes the evolution of cooperation is network dynamics\, where ties can be shed and new ties formed. Yet past research has only compared networks where all ties can potentially be severed to those where none can\, confounding the benefits of fully dynamic networks with the presence of dynamic ties within the network. This work accounts for the complexity of real-world networks\, where some ties are more susceptible to change than others\, by considering whether the presence of dynamic ties in networks promotes cooperation even among static ties. Results reveal that\, in networks with both tie types\, the higher rate of cooperation in dynamic ties “spills over” to those relations that are more difficult to alter\, promoting cooperation even among static ties. Thus\, findings demonstrate the critical role that dynamic ties play in promoting cooperation by altering behavioral outcomes even in non-dynamic relations.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Medieval Lunch. \"Risk (Genoa\, 1154)\"  &  \"No shoes allowed: Jewish Traditions between Spain and the Maghreb\"
DESCRIPTION:Risk (Genoa\, 1154)\nThe word \"risk\" entered the languages of western Europe in the mid-12th century. The Latin resicum first appeared in notarial archives in Genoa\, and was used to describe a payment awarded to those who invested in dangerous trans-Mediterranean shipping. It comes from the Arabic word al-rizq\, which in the Qur'an referred to the means of subsistence provided by God. In this presentation\, we'll look at the very earliest attested uses of the Latin resicum and think together about how the word entered Latin\, what it meant in these earliest contracts\, and why the word and its cognates was embraced with such enthusiasm in the European languages.\n\nNo shoes allowed: Jewish Tradition between Spain and the Maghreb\nSephardi Jews living in the early modern Maghreb struggled to preserve their old traditions while adjusting to their new Islamic surrounding. This short talk will discuss a specific rabbinical answer from the mid-15th century\, which tried to offer a general principle for Jewish cultural adaptability. More broadly\, it will look at responsa literature as a fundamental source for the study of Mediterranean scholarly networks.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | An Atomic Receiver for AM and FM Radio Communication
DESCRIPTION:Radio-frequency field modulation underlies nearly all modern communication\, from car radios to wifi. Despite being a mature technology first developed in the late nineteenth century\, radio communication has several ongoing challenges including information security\, increasing bandwidth by tapping the microwave- and mm-wave regimes\, and improving resilience against electromagnetic interference (EMI). An exciting prospect to solving many of these challenges lies in replacing antenna technology with quantum technologies. In this talk\, I will describe the recent development at Rydberg Technologies of a fundamentally new atomic receiver technology for AM and FM radio communication [1\, 2]. The atomic receiver exploits the properties of Rydberg atoms\, highly excited atomic states that are very sensitive to electromagnetic fields\, to collect and demodulate AM and FM radio based on atomic spectroscopy in compact room-temperature vapor cells.  Features of the atomic receiver include its small size\, ability detect carrier-waves spanning several octaves\, and a circuit-free detector element.  Even in this first demonstration\, the bandwidth and dynamic range are sufficient to receive human vocals.\n\nReferences: \n\n[1] D.A. Anderson\, R.E. Saprio\, G.

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 backgrounds are invited to participate.\n\nWikimedia’s trouble in representing topics related to gender\, race\, and nationality are well-documented. While the reasons for the gaps 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. In an attempt to help address these issues and to broaden the community base of Wikipedians\, and as part of the Latinx Heritage Month Celebrations at the University of Michigan\, the Library is hosting this Latinx Wikipedia Edit-a-thon.\n\nThis event is made possible through collaborations between the University of Michigan Library\, La Casa\, and the Latinx Heritage Month Planning Committee.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Center for World Performance Studies | PERFORMANCE TALKS
DESCRIPTION:Prisoner's Song\, a critically acclaimed multimedia performance about the experience of the incarcerated in America\, will be presented at four different Detroit venues this September\, free of charge and open to the general public. University of Michigan's Center for World Performance Studies presents a Performance Talk with Gelsey Bell and Erik Ruin\,  on Tuesday\, Sept. 18th at 6pm. Prisoner's Song is the recipient of a Knight Arts Challenge Grant.\n\nPrisoner’s Song is an hour-long performance comprised of ten chapters based on various primary sources\, approached in an array of performance styles. The performance\, by New York-based composer Gelsey Bell and Philadelphia-based (and Detroit-raised) visual artist Erik Ruin\, uses shadow puppets\, projections\, and a variety of musical idioms to portray the prison experience. For instance\, the 19th-century British folk ballad “Adieu To All Judges and Juries” tells the tale of a woman yearning for her lover who has been forcibly exiled\, set to an original arrangement by Bell and illustrated by an intricate paper-cut scroll 10.5 feet in length. In contrast\, an inventory of prisoners’ personal possessions from the Eastern State Penitentiary in the 1930s is performed as an abrupt sequence of voices and percussion\, with the silhouettes of found objects starkly flickering across the screen.\n\nBy drawing on historic ballads\, poetry\, audio interviews with people who have spent time in prison\, and other primary sources\, Prisoner's Song allows audiences to encounter the states of mind and heart that prison engenders. The New York Times calls Prisoner’s Song“uncomfortably powerful … evoking the restrictive and impoverished reality of incarceration even as it pays tribute to the resilience\, ingenuity and poetry that can transcend it.”\n\nPrisoner's Song is presented free through the contributions of the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation\, Carrie Morris Arts Production\, the U-M Center for World Performance Studies\, the U-M Prison Creative Arts Project\, Power House Productions\, and through the generosity of many individual donors.\n\nDetroit Performances of Prisoner's Song:\nWednesday\, Sept. 19\, 7pm  | Light Box\nThursday\, Sept. 20\, 7pm | Cass Corridor Neighborhood Development Corporation Community Center\nFriday\, Sept. 21\, 8pm | Play House \nSaturday\, Sept. 22\, 8pm | Trumbullplex

SUMMARY:Performance:Deidre McCalla & Dianne Davidson
DESCRIPTION:Deidre McCalla came of age in the fiery blaze of NYC's folk heyday - a time when Greenwich Village clubs were filled with the likes of Dylan\, Baez\, and Ochs\; a time when Motown ruled the top of the charts and the streets of America screamed with anger and civil unrest. Her first album\, \"Fur Coats and Blue Jeans\,\" was released when Deidre was 19 and a student at Vassar College. With a theater degree tucked under her belt and an acoustic guitar tossed in the back of a battered Buick station wagon\, releasing three albums with the pioneering women's music label Olivia Records/ The Miami Herald affectionately dubs her a \"dreadlocked troubadour\,\" and she shared the stage with a long list of notables that includes Suzanne Vega\, Tracy Chapman\, Holly Near\, Odetta\, Cris Williamson\, and Sweet Honey in the Rock. Deidre comes to Michigan with a new album\, \"Playing for Keeps.\"

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach-Out Series: Listening to Puerto Rico
DESCRIPTION:On September 20\, 2017\, Hurricane María struck the island of Puerto Rico with catastrophic force\, shattering lives\, communities\, infrastructure and the physical environment. One year later\, Puerto Rico remains in the grips of an ongoing and systematic crisis. \n\nIn June 2018\, teams from the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame traveled to Puerto Rico  to film testimonies from Puerto Ricans from all walks of life. In this Teach-Out\, you will hear powerful narratives of loss and recovery\, abandonment and resilience\, failure and hope as you come to better understand Puerto Rico’s past\, present\, and future. \n\nThese individual testimonials are complemented by resources that are meant to deepen your understanding of an urgent multidimensional crisis that involves policy\, culture and history\,  political economy\, environmental loss\, civil infrastructure\, public health\, and human dignity. In this teach-out\, we spotlight  a number of successful organizations\, strategies and solutions that are contributing to Puerto Rico’s recovery. \n\nUnderstanding begins with listening. But “listening” is not just about hearing people’s words: it also implies taking notice of\, and acting on\, what people say. Shaped by the individual experience of everyday life\, the Listening to Puerto Rico Teach-Out invites you to hear many voices from a distressed but resilient island and discover how you can contribute to the island’s recovery. \n\nThis Teach-Out is a collaboration between the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame. \n\nPlease join us in listening to Puerto Rico.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Celebrating Science & Art
DESCRIPTION:The brilliantly colored images in this exhibit were taken in the course of scientific research\, and are beautiful in their detail\, form and symmetry. For each one\, an accompanying explanation describes its significance. The subjects of the images are cells\, tissues and organs\, from a wide variety of biological sources (plants\, worms\, fruit flies\, fish\, mice and yes\, even human brain). The colors are added by investigators\, to allow them to see the otherwise transparent tissues. By looking at these microscopic images\, you will learn about research into normal embryonic development as well as cutting-edge investigations into diseases such as basal cell carcinoma\, bipolar disease\, epilepsy and cancer.

DESCRIPTION:This group show of jewelry and ornaments includes the work of Roger Martin\, who tackled the subject of a raven by relying on planes and shadow lines to imbue the surfaces of the bird with personality. Another one of the seven artists\, Lorraine Kolasa\, picked up the old fashioned art of tatting\, then cast tiny pieces of her handmade lace into sterling silver jewelry. Michael Nashef\, who spent half his life in war-torn Lebanon\, has created a series of innovative vessels and brooches. Other artists included in this exhibit are Kim Cridler\, Roger Smith\, Renee Zettle-Sterling and Ruth Taubman\, whose unmatched exuberance of color and 36 years of work and business innovation\, place her jewelry firmly on the national stage.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Organic Fiction: Acrylic on Canvas
DESCRIPTION:Hava Gurevich’s colorful abstractions feature botanical\, aquatic and microscopic motifs as she explores repeating patterns in nature. Blending images from the real world and her imagination\, Organic Fiction celebrates nature in all its beauty\, chaos and complexity. Hava Gurevich received a BFA in photography from U-M and an MFA in painting from Illinois State University. Her creative process begins with photographs and sketches of details in nature\, such as tree branches\, ice patterns\, twisted vines\, and delicate spring blossoms. These drawings contribute to her personal vocabulary of shapes and gestures\, and she often digitally combines them with older paintings to become starting points of new works.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Urban Biographies\, Ancient and Modern
DESCRIPTION:Human beings are political animals\, said the Greek philosopher Aristotle: animals that live in the “polis\,” the Greek word for city. Over two thousand years later\, we are still political animals\, and the study of ancient cities is of abiding interest\, for our perceptions of the urban centers of the past continue to exert a powerful hold on modern culture. \n\nThis exhibition showcases three Classical cities where the University of Michigan sponsors field projects: Gabii in Italy\, Olynthos in Greece\, and Notion in Turkey. The archaeologists excavating these cities\, in collaboration with students and faculty from U-M’s Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, are comparing their findings to projects of urban rebuilding in contemporary Detroit\, asking two main questions: How do contemporary archaeological methods facilitate the study of both ancient and modern cities? And how can the study of the past help illuminate the challenges and opportunities facing Detroit today? \n\nLead Curator: Christopher Ratté\nCo-Curators: Lisa Nevett\, Nicola Terrenato\, and Kathy Velikov\n\nVisit the exhibition website: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/urban-biographies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Beyond Borders: Global Africa
DESCRIPTION:More than ever in the era of globalization\, ideas traverse geographic\, generational\, and cultural boundaries\, even as national borders seem to be closing. 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' reflects on this moment by considering how Africa and its artists have been at the center of complex histories of encounter and exchange for centuries. Bringing together a dazzling array of works made in Africa\, Europe\, and the United States from the nineteenth to twenty-first century\, the exhibition demonstrates the international scope and reach of art from Africa and the African diaspora. It also explores issues such as slavery\, colonization\, migration\, racism\, and identity at play in the objects and their histories. Highlights include paintings\, photographs\, sculpture\, and installations by Kudzanai Chiurai\, Omar Victor Diop\, Wangechi Mutu\, and Serge Alain Nitegeka. The exhibition will be accompanied by a fully-illustrated publication\, the tenth in the UMMA Books series.\n\nLead support for 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Office of Research\, African Studies Center\, and Department of Afroamerican and African Studies. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund and Susan Ullrich.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Marcel Dzama: A Jester's Dance
DESCRIPTION:Canadian artist Marcel Dzama is known for imaginative drawings\, sculptures\, dioramas\, and films rooted in the traditions of Surrealism\, Dada and outsider art. His 2013 film Une danse des bouffons (or A jester's dance) tells the tale of a romance between two principal figures of these traditions: Dada icon Marcel Duchamp and Brazilian sculptor Maria Martins\, who was the model for Duchamp's final\, enigmatic artwork Étant donnés. Rife with art-historical references not only to the work of Duchamp but also to Francisco Goya\, Francis Picabia and Joseph Beuys\, among others\, Une danse des bouffons navigates a sexually charged and mesmerizing world in which fantasy and torture run amok. The gallery presentation also includes a storyboard for the film featuring Dzama’s ink and watercolor drawings\, renderings of small hybrid figures resembling children’s book illustrations. The drawings underscore the fantastical elements in a film that combines the carnivalesque with a nightmarish exploration of the surreal.\n\nLead support for Marcel Dzama: A Jester's Dance is provided by Candy and Michael Barasch. Additional generous support is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:See Through: Windows and Mirrors in Twentieth-Century Photography
DESCRIPTION:See Through: Mirrors and Windows in Twentieth-Century Photography brings together a group of images that are doubly framed—once by the camera lens and again by the border of a mirror or window. By refracting and distorting\, revealing and concealing\, these reflective and transparent surfaces both draw attention to the photographer’s efforts to frame the world and expose the contingent nature of reality. Highlights from the exhibition include works by Eugène Atget\, Robert Doisneau\, Elliott Erwitt\, Walker Evans\, André Kertész\, Joanne Leonard\, Danny Lyon\, and Joel Meyerowitz. By extending the limits of perception\, these witty and provocative works invite us to see [through to] new visual possibilities.\n\nLead support for See Through: Windows and Mirrors in Twentieth-Century Photography is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Chinese Theater\, Drama Publications\, and the Printed Image
DESCRIPTION:Professor Patricia Sieber will examine different early modern editions of The Story of the Western Wing in an effort to tease out how images in drama publications not only altered the reading experience of such texts\, but also changed the performative enactment of theatrical forms. Thus rather treating such images as mere “illustrations\,” the talk seeks to show that the appearance of images in theater-related texts was a transformative moment for the history of the book and for the culture of theater alike.\n\nAbout the speaker:\n\nPatricia Sieber is an Associate Professor of Chinese Literature in the Department of East Asian Languages and Literatures where she teaches graduate and undergraduate courses on premodern Chinese drama and fiction\, the history of the book\, and translation studies. She is the author of Theaters of Desire: Authors\, Readers\, and the Reproduction of Early Chinese Song-Drama\, 1300-2000 and is currently the lead editor for How To Read Chinese Drama: A Guided Anthology. She has given talks in the US\, Europe\, Russia\, China\, Hong Kong\, and Taiwan and her work has appeared in English\, Chinese\, and German.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Culturally Grounded Interventions that Enhance Belonging\, Motivation and Academic Performance
DESCRIPTION:The culture cycle\, which consists of cultural ideas and institutional practices that influence individuals’ interactions and daily lived experiences\, reveals that individuals are both a product of and play an important role in creating and adapting to the cultures they inhabit.The dominant educational culture\, which is largely influenced by the independent model of self\, reflects a set of ideas and practices about what it means to be a “good” student\, the purpose of education\, and the nature of the relationship between teachers and students. For many students\, such as first-generation college students and other racial-ethnic minority students\, this model typically does not match their understandings of self\, which are more likely to be influenced by the interdependent model of self. The first set of studies examine the sources and consequences of student success associated with a cultural match or mismatch between the students’ model of self and the dominant educational culture. The second set of studies examine how culturally grounded interventions\, by way of reframing the dominant educational culture\, positively influences motivation and performance. Together our research highlights the need to address the role that existing dominant cultural norms and practices play in contributing to educational disparities for diverse students\, and the need to reframe these practices in ways that acknowledge and honor the cultural strengths of these students.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Brown Bag Seminar | Cosmological Signatures of Sub-MeV Dark Matter Freeze-In
DESCRIPTION:Dark matter could be a thermal relic of freeze-in\, where the dark matter is produced by extremely feeble interactions with Standard Model particles dominantly at low temperatures. The simplest sub-MeV dark matter models with freeze-in include models with a kinetically-mixed dark photon mediator\, or equivalently models where dark matter is millicharged under the Standard Model U(1). In this talk I will discuss how such models can impact and be constrained by cosmological observables\, including the CMB\, the Lyman-alpha forest\, and the EDGES observation of the cosmological 21 cm global signal.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Trend Analysis of SWMP Temperature with Missing Data
DESCRIPTION:The National Estuarine Research Reserves’ System-wide Monitoring Program  (SWMP) data can contribute to research and discussion on climate change. The treatment of temperature data is of particular concern when applied to the analysis of interannual trends. Seasonal cycles can impose fluctuations that greatly exceed diurnal\, tidal\, or event-scale fluctuations\, and seasonally skewed distribution of missing data biases calculations of annual or seasonal means. \n\nThis webinar will provide insights on encoded algorithms for measuring temperature trends\, including the conservative approach of replacing missing temperature data with smoothed day-of-the-year averages and seasonal decomposition as well as the benefits and disadvantages of alternative approaches. \n\nAbout the Speaker: \nDr. Thomas Grothues has a Research Faculty appointment as a fish ecologist at Rutgers University and begins as Research Coordinator for Jacques Cousteau National Estuarine Research Reserve System in Fall 2019. He has been using SWMP data in peer-reviewed publications about fish habitat use\, migration\, and recruitment since 2007.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IOE 899 Seminar: Yafeng Yin\, U-M CEE
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Ride-sourcing companies such as Uber\, Lyft and Didi Chuxing are transforming the way people travel in cities. These companies provide ride-hailing applications that intelligently match riders to drivers\; drivers are private car owners who drive their own vehicles to provide ride-for-hire services for profit. Since their advent in 2009\, ride-sourcing companies have enjoyed huge success\, but also created many controversies. One of them centered on surge pricing\, which algorithmically varies price across different geographic areas and periods. In this talk\, we present an equilibrium modeling framework for analyzing ride-sourcing systems to estimate the impacts of surge pricing on the overall system performance. We will discuss critical ingredients of the modeling framework\, including capturing drivers’ labor supply decision\, and approximating the market frictions due to the matching technology adopted by a ride-sourcing platform to match riders and drivers. We will then configure the framework to develop various models to investigate the pricing of the ride-sourcing markets and its welfare impacts. Potential regulatory policies are subsequently discussed. \n\nBio: Dr. Yafeng Yin is a Professor at Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering\, University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor. He works in the area of transportation systems analysis and modeling\, and has published approximately 100 refereed papers in leading academic journals. Dr. Yin is the Editor-in-Chief of Transportation Research Part C: Emerging Technologies. He is also an Associate Editor of Transportation Science\, and serves on the editorial boards for another four transportation journals such as Transportation Research Part B: Methodological. Dr. Yin received his Ph.D. from the University of Tokyo\, Japan in 2002\, his master’s and bachelor’s degrees from Tsinghua University\, Beijing\, China in 1996 and 1994 respectively. Prior to his current appointment at the University of Michigan\, he was a faculty member at University of Florida between 2005 and 2016. He worked as a postdoctoral researcher and then assistant research engineer at University of California at Berkeley between 2002 and 2005. Between 1996 and 1999\, he was a lecturer at Tsinghua University. Dr. Yin has received recognition from different institutions. He was one of the five recipients of the 2012 Doctoral Mentoring Award from University of Florida in recognition of his outstanding graduate student advising and mentoring. One of his papers won the 2016 Stella Dafermos Best Paper Award and the Ryuichi Kitamura Paper Award from Transportation Research Board. He was recently elected to serve on the International Advisory Committee of the International Symposium of Transportation and Traffic Theory (ISTTT).

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Screening of Martha (Rainer Werner Fassbinder\, 1974)
DESCRIPTION:This made-for-tv melodrama stars Margit Carstensen as the eponymous Martha\, a librarian who meets her future husband Helmut (Karlheinz Böhm) on vacation abroad. Once married\, Helmut’s domineering and sadistic behavior leads Martha to believe that her new husband is trying to kill her. Featuring the most famous tracking shot in Rainer Werner Fassbinder’s oeuvre\, this New German Cinema gem recalls paranoid women’s films from the 1940s and Douglas Sirk’s 1950s melodramas. Content note: depictions of emotional and physical abuse. Screened in German with English subtitles. \n\n This event is part of the monthly German Film Series and is sponsored by the University of Michigan Department of Germanic Languages and Literatures and the Max Kade House. See https://lsa.umich.edu/german for additional dates and films. \n\nEach month\, a German faculty\, lecturer\, or graduate student introduces and screens a different German-language film. Dinner will be provided at 6:30 pm\, followed by the film at 7 pm. \n\nFree and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Performance:Lindi Ortega
DESCRIPTION:Lindi Ortega gives fair warning: \"Don’t come any closer to my heart /If you’re afraid of the dark.\" However\, that shroud is slowly lifted in her new album\, \"Liberty.\" As the narrative unfolds in this concept album\, a central character emerges—one who finally sheds the darkness of her past and emerges into the light. As melodies and tempos change\, her journey carries her steadily forward. \"I think the most important thing for me was that I ended on a very positive note because I've had so many people tell me that my songs helped them through really hard times in their life\,\" Lindi says. \"That struck a chord for me\, because just like everybody else\, I have had hard times in my life\, and continue to have pockets of difficult moments here and there. If I can provide some sort of solace with my music\, then that gives me every reason to make music. I wanted this record to be all about helping people through the darkness.\"

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach-Out Series: Listening to Puerto Rico
DESCRIPTION:On September 20\, 2017\, Hurricane María struck the island of Puerto Rico with catastrophic force\, shattering lives\, communities\, infrastructure and the physical environment. One year later\, Puerto Rico remains in the grips of an ongoing and systematic crisis. \n\nIn June 2018\, teams from the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame traveled to Puerto Rico  to film testimonies from Puerto Ricans from all walks of life. In this Teach-Out\, you will hear powerful narratives of loss and recovery\, abandonment and resilience\, failure and hope as you come to better understand Puerto Rico’s past\, present\, and future. \n\nThese individual testimonials are complemented by resources that are meant to deepen your understanding of an urgent multidimensional crisis that involves policy\, culture and history\,  political economy\, environmental loss\, civil infrastructure\, public health\, and human dignity. In this teach-out\, we spotlight  a number of successful organizations\, strategies and solutions that are contributing to Puerto Rico’s recovery. \n\nUnderstanding begins with listening. But “listening” is not just about hearing people’s words: it also implies taking notice of\, and acting on\, what people say. Shaped by the individual experience of everyday life\, the Listening to Puerto Rico Teach-Out invites you to hear many voices from a distressed but resilient island and discover how you can contribute to the island’s recovery. \n\nThis Teach-Out is a collaboration between the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame. \n\nPlease join us in listening to Puerto Rico.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Celebrating Science & Art
DESCRIPTION:The brilliantly colored images in this exhibit were taken in the course of scientific research\, and are beautiful in their detail\, form and symmetry. For each one\, an accompanying explanation describes its significance. The subjects of the images are cells\, tissues and organs\, from a wide variety of biological sources (plants\, worms\, fruit flies\, fish\, mice and yes\, even human brain). The colors are added by investigators\, to allow them to see the otherwise transparent tissues. By looking at these microscopic images\, you will learn about research into normal embryonic development as well as cutting-edge investigations into diseases such as basal cell carcinoma\, bipolar disease\, epilepsy and cancer.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Urban Biographies\, Ancient and Modern
DESCRIPTION:Human beings are political animals\, said the Greek philosopher Aristotle: animals that live in the “polis\,” the Greek word for city. Over two thousand years later\, we are still political animals\, and the study of ancient cities is of abiding interest\, for our perceptions of the urban centers of the past continue to exert a powerful hold on modern culture. \n\nThis exhibition showcases three Classical cities where the University of Michigan sponsors field projects: Gabii in Italy\, Olynthos in Greece\, and Notion in Turkey. The archaeologists excavating these cities\, in collaboration with students and faculty from U-M’s Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, are comparing their findings to projects of urban rebuilding in contemporary Detroit\, asking two main questions: How do contemporary archaeological methods facilitate the study of both ancient and modern cities? And how can the study of the past help illuminate the challenges and opportunities facing Detroit today? \n\nLead Curator: Christopher Ratté\nCo-Curators: Lisa Nevett\, Nicola Terrenato\, and Kathy Velikov\n\nVisit the exhibition website: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/urban-biographies

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:ChE Seminar Series: Darrell J. Irvine
DESCRIPTION:Dept. of Biological Engineering\, Dept. of Materials Science & Engineering\, MIT\, Cambridge\, MA\nKoch Institute for Integrative Cancer Research\, Cambridge\, MA\nRagon Institute of MGH\, MIT\, and Harvard\, Cambridge\, MA\nHoward Hughes Medical Institute\, Chevy Chase\, MD\n\nABSTRACT\n\"Engineering immunity via chemistry and materials design: Toward an HIV vaccine and enhanced therapies for cancer\"\n\nOur laboratory focuses on applying principles from engineering and technologies from materials science\, chemistry\, and bioengineering to develop new approaches to study the immune system\, create new diagnostics\, and create next generation vaccines and cancer immunotherapies.  Two examples drawn from our work on HIV vaccines and cancer immunotherapy will be described:  \n\nThe kinetics of antigen availability following immunization impact follicular helper T cell priming\, germinal center responses\, and ultimate antibody production\, but clinically-relevant methods to control the duration of antigen delivery to lymph nodes in subunit vaccines are lacking. We conjugated antigens derived from the gp140 HIV envelope trimer with a peptide-polymer affinity tag containing repeating phosphoserine (pSer) residues that binds tightly to the most common clinical adjuvant\, aluminum hydroxide (Alhydrogel\, or alum). Site specific modification of HIV antigens with varying numbers of pSer groups allowed the binding strength to alum to be tuned and alum-bound antigens were presented from alum particle surfaces with a defined orientation.  pSer-antigen conjugates in alum could be tuned to steadily release antigen from an injection site over multiple weeks in mice. This persistence led to improved lymph node uptake and colocalization of antigen with B cell follicles. Ultimately\, a 20-fold increase in antibody titers relative to the unmodified protein was observed four weeks after primary immunization with both pSer-eOD and pSer-SOSIP conjugates\, and long-lived plasma cells in bone marrow were doubled by immunization with pSer-modified immunogens. Additionally\, conjugation of pSer linkers to the base of SOSIP trimers minimized the formation of base-specific antibodies\, suggesting that antigen arrives in lymph nodes still bound to alum particles.\n\nIn a second example\, a novel strategy for targeting antigens and immunostimulatory agents to lymph nodes for therapeutic cancer vaccines will be described. Lymph node targeting is achieved clinically is sentinel lymph node mapping in cancer patients\, where small-molecule dyes are efficiently delivered to lymph nodes by binding to serum albumin.  To mimic this process in vaccine delivery\, we synthesized amphiphiles designed to non-covalently bind vaccine antigens and adjuvants to endogenous albumin.  These “albumin-hitchhiking” amphiphiles were efficiently delivered to lymph nodes following injection\, leading to as much as 30-fold amplified cellular immune responses and anti-tumor immunity.  When combined with complementary immunotherapy agents\, these lymph node-targeted vaccines are capable of eradicating large established tumors in several mouse models\, providing a blueprint for curative immunotherapies. These examples illustrate the power of bioengineering approaches in shaping the immune response in vivo.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Beyond Borders: Global Africa
DESCRIPTION:More than ever in the era of globalization\, ideas traverse geographic\, generational\, and cultural boundaries\, even as national borders seem to be closing. 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' reflects on this moment by considering how Africa and its artists have been at the center of complex histories of encounter and exchange for centuries. Bringing together a dazzling array of works made in Africa\, Europe\, and the United States from the nineteenth to twenty-first century\, the exhibition demonstrates the international scope and reach of art from Africa and the African diaspora. It also explores issues such as slavery\, colonization\, migration\, racism\, and identity at play in the objects and their histories. Highlights include paintings\, photographs\, sculpture\, and installations by Kudzanai Chiurai\, Omar Victor Diop\, Wangechi Mutu\, and Serge Alain Nitegeka. The exhibition will be accompanied by a fully-illustrated publication\, the tenth in the UMMA Books series.\n\nLead support for 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Office of Research\, African Studies Center\, and Department of Afroamerican and African Studies. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund and Susan Ullrich.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Marcel Dzama: A Jester's Dance
DESCRIPTION:Canadian artist Marcel Dzama is known for imaginative drawings\, sculptures\, dioramas\, and films rooted in the traditions of Surrealism\, Dada and outsider art. His 2013 film Une danse des bouffons (or A jester's dance) tells the tale of a romance between two principal figures of these traditions: Dada icon Marcel Duchamp and Brazilian sculptor Maria Martins\, who was the model for Duchamp's final\, enigmatic artwork Étant donnés. Rife with art-historical references not only to the work of Duchamp but also to Francisco Goya\, Francis Picabia and Joseph Beuys\, among others\, Une danse des bouffons navigates a sexually charged and mesmerizing world in which fantasy and torture run amok. The gallery presentation also includes a storyboard for the film featuring Dzama’s ink and watercolor drawings\, renderings of small hybrid figures resembling children’s book illustrations. The drawings underscore the fantastical elements in a film that combines the carnivalesque with a nightmarish exploration of the surreal.\n\nLead support for Marcel Dzama: A Jester's Dance is provided by Candy and Michael Barasch. Additional generous support is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Life Magazine 1947 Homecoming Photographs
DESCRIPTION:In October 1947\, just two years after the end of World War II\, the popular weekly news magazine LIFE sent staff photographers Lisa Larsen and Ralph Morse to cover homecoming weekend at the University of Michigan. The subsequent article\, “Michigan Homecoming\,” which brought national attention to UM’s athletic program\, featured a seven-page spread with photographs of the campus during a much-anticipated football game between the number-one ranked Michigan Wolverines and the University of Minnesota’s Golden Gophers. This installation provides a unique opportunity to view twenty-one images of that weekend\, many of which were not published in the original article\, recently donated to UMMA by John and Susan Edwards Harvith. Considered alongside the article\, these photographs of fervent fans\, strolling couples\, alumni making their annual pilgrimage\, and the game itself present LIFE magazine’s view of a giddy post-war public enjoying a return to American pastimes.\n\nThese photographs were recently gifted to UMMA by John (AB '69\, JD '73) and Susan (MMP '73) Harvith.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:See Through: Windows and Mirrors in Twentieth-Century Photography
DESCRIPTION:See Through: Mirrors and Windows in Twentieth-Century Photography brings together a group of images that are doubly framed—once by the camera lens and again by the border of a mirror or window. By refracting and distorting\, revealing and concealing\, these reflective and transparent surfaces both draw attention to the photographer’s efforts to frame the world and expose the contingent nature of reality. Highlights from the exhibition include works by Eugène Atget\, Robert Doisneau\, Elliott Erwitt\, Walker Evans\, André Kertész\, Joanne Leonard\, Danny Lyon\, and Joel Meyerowitz. By extending the limits of perception\, these witty and provocative works invite us to see [through to] new visual possibilities.\n\nLead support for See Through: Windows and Mirrors in Twentieth-Century Photography is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series | Cheerful Disguise of Japanese Militarism: Geisha's Performances in the 1930’s
DESCRIPTION:Part of the Toyota Visiting Professor 30th Anniversary Special Lecture Series.\n\nDance performance of geisha was one of the leading popular entertainments in the first half of the 20th century. Of them\, Miyako Odori\, an annual dance performance of geisha of Gion\, Kyoto was especially powerful. Themes of every year’s Miyako Odori used to be happy\, cheerful\, beautiful\, gorgeous\, and were not serious at all. However sudden change was seen in the year 1933. The theme turned heavily political. They seemed to have competed to express their obedience to the national policy of the time\, choosing themes to lift the spirits for the war.\n\nMariko Okada is Associate Professor at Faculty of Humanities\, J. F. Oberlin University\, Tokyo\, Japan. She received her Ph.D. from Waseda University in Tokyo in 2011. She published her book “The Birth of Kyōmai (\"Kyoto Dance\"): Inoue-ryu Dance in Nineteenth-Century Kyoto\, Japan\" (Japanese) in 2013. \n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to bkinzer@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Transformations of Complex N1 during the Late Horizon (AD1470-1534)\, Chincha Valley\, Perú
DESCRIPTION:The Chincha Valley of Peru has been the subject of archaeological studies since the 1920s due to its rich ethnohistoric record and wealth of archaeological sites with excellent preservation. This presentation will share recent data from Complex N1 at the site of Las Huacas. Las Huacas is a large 105-hectare agricultural center that was occupied since the Early Intermediate Period (AD200-600) into the Colonial Period (AD 1534-1821). Research in 2017 and 2018 focused on excavations within a 12 x 8-meter room and the Late Horizon (AD 1470-1534) occupation of Complex N1. During the Late Horizon\, the Chincha were incorporated into the Inca Empire and were granted a prestigious position. Excavations of the room within Complex N1 recovered a wealth of information about craft production\, mortuary traditions\, and architectural transformations during this dynamic time period. The talk will conclude by introducing future directions for the investigations which will provide important details on how the inhabitants of Las Huacas were affected by Inca expansion.

DESCRIPTION:In March\, The New York Times Book Review featured 15 books by women that their critics see as “opening new realms to us\, whose books suggest and embody unexplored possibilities in form\, feeling and knowledge.” They say these books set the agenda for the 21st century. So the question for this class is: what does that agenda look like? \n\nBefore the first meeting I will send the NYT article to participants so they can read the short reviews of each book. At the first meeting we will select 4 of these to begin to answer our “research” question.  We’ll read approximately 100 pages a week. We’ll have discussion\, small group analysis in class\, occasional lectures on style\, structure\, etc. \n\nLecturer Sharon Quiroz has a PhD. in English\, has published poetry and short stories\, and is currently working on her second novel while she tries to sell the first one.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Public Lecture: Billy Whiskers Bashes His Way into History
DESCRIPTION:JFK’s Favorite Childhood Series Defined America For Millions!\n\nBilly introduced ideas about America and freedom to children at a transitional period in the nation’s history. Frances Trego Montgomery’s series (1902-1930\, reissues in 1960s) was an enormously influential illustrated series contemporary with the Oz books\, as well as with America’s rise to world leadership\, and social unrest over race and immigration. Montgomery’s relentlessly destructive male goat\, the favorite childhood reading of Joe\, Jack\, and Bobby Kennedy\, raises questions about the nation’s defining role\, as well as the influence of childhood reading on children who become presidents.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:“Mythmaking\, Memory\, and A Sacred Landscape in Republican Rome”
DESCRIPTION:The “Rape of the Sabine Women” and the subsequent Sabine War were considered in ancient Rome one of the most important and formative events in Rome’s early history. While several sites in and around the Forum preserved the memory of specific events in the Sabine War\, Dr. Andrews argues that the memory of the Sabine women themselves was rooted in the Subura valley to the east of the Forum. \n\nThis talk presents the first chapter from Dr. Andrews' current monograph on the longue durée history of the Subura and its role as the primary locus for an institutional discourse on feminine virtue throughout its pre-modern history. She shows when\, how\, and why the story of the Sabine Women emerged and\, more importantly\, how it became anchored in the landscape of the Subura valley through a series of cult sites. She argues that the critical period was the Middle Republic\, when the area experienced extensive residential development and became a venue for aristocratic competition. The narrative of the Sabine women was promulgated by victors in the Italian wars of the third century BCE and grafted onto pre-existing sacred sites in the valley\, where many of these victors likely lived. This mythmaking in the Middle Republican period is but the first instance of the manipulation of local memory over the long history of the Subura.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AE Graduate Seminar Series - Boundary Layer Ingestion for Transport Aircraft: Power Balance\, Wind Tunnel Tests\, and Analysis Framework
DESCRIPTION:Alejandra Uranga\, Gabilan Assistant Professor\, USC\n\nBoundary layer ingestion (BLI)\, in which part of an aircraft airframe's boundary layer is ingested by the propulsors\, has the potential to provide significant improvements in fuel efficiency compared to conventional engine installations. The wind tunnel tests of the D8 \"double-bubble\" aircraft in back-to-back BLI and non-BLI configurations constitute a proof-of-concept for the use of BLI in transport aircraft. These were carried out as part of a NASA N+3 project led by MIT in collaboration with Aurora Flight Sciences and Pratt & Whitney.\n\nThis presentation will cover the wind tunnel experiments\, with emphasis on the quantification of the power-saving benefit of BLI. It will introduce the power balance method for analyzing highly-integrated aircraft configurations\, and how it was applied to the D8 tests to determine the aerodynamic benefit of BLI. The different sources of benefits with BLI will be related to the dissipation sources in the flowfield\, and an analysis framework for aircraft with BLI will be presented.\n\nAbout the speaker...\nAlejandra Uranga is a Gabilan Assistant Professor in the Department of Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering at USC. Before joining USC in 2016\, she was a Research Engineer at MIT in the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics. While at MIT\, she was the project technology lead and co-PI for design\, development\, simulation\, and wind tunnel testing of the D8 double-bubble advanced transport aircraft concept under the NASA N+3 program.\n\nShe holds a PhD degree in Aeronautics and Astronautics from MIT\, and a Master's of Applied Sciences in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Victoria\, BC\, Canada. She completed her undergraduate education at the Université Paris 7 Denis Diderot\, Paris\, France\, with an associate's degree in Mathematics\, and has a B.S. in Aerospace Engineering from the Florida Institute of Technology. Her research interests are in aerodynamics\, novel aircraft design\, and integrated propulsion systems\, for which she favors a combined computational and experimental approach.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Development Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Welfare Implications of Political Patronage in Electricity\n\nPolitical involvement in electricity provision is a common occurrence\, with politicians favoring their voters. This benefits needy consumers\, while hurting provider revenues. I combine confidential data on the universe of billing records from a large state utility in India with data on elections and nighttime lights. I demonstrate new evidence on the extent of\, and the mechanisms behind\, political patronage in electricity provision. Using a close-election Regression Discontinuity Design (RDD)\, I find higher satellite-measured electricity consumption\, but systematically lower bill collections in constituencies aligned with the ruling party. I show evidence of under-reporting of consumption and also of data manipulation in billing records. Exploiting the rich variation and detail in the data\, I estimate net welfare to be unambiguously lower as a result of these actions. The producer losses of about $57 million are more than double the gains to consumers. To measure welfare changes\, I develop a novel method that estimates the price elasticity of electricity demand in the presence of data manipulation\, combining policy changes as instrumental variables with machine learning for model selection. My estimates are more robust than prior work which relies on aggregated data and on data that is likely to have been manipulated. Consistent with a model of patronage politics\, I find that politicians target voters with greater influence and those who benefit more from subsidies.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar- Community assembly and structure in islands: a bottom up approach
DESCRIPTION:Oceanic islands and archipelagos provide simplified biological communities compared to continental settings\, making them useful systems for ecological and evolutionary investigation. Much of our general understanding of how such insular communities assemble over time comes from top-down extrapolations of process from species distribution data and molecular phylogenetic data. Here I will argue that to connect pattern with process\, geographically explicit individual-based bottom-up approaches are needed that are broadly representative of the community itself. We have been working toward this\, developing community-level sampling protocols for arthropod taxa that integrate DNA sequencing techniques to simultaneously facilitate taxonomic assignment and test hypotheses about the drivers of speciation. I will present results that reveal the subtle but pervasive impacts of island topography and climate that act in concert to drive speciation across entire arthropod communities. I will also present data from recent efforts within our research group to overcome the logistical constraints of geographic and taxonomic scale for comparative molecular analysis of invertebrate communities.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Public Lecture: On Langston Hughes’s Black Leninism
DESCRIPTION:This talk is part of a project\, \"Black Leninism: How Revolutionary Counter-Moods Are Made\,\" which turns to the black radical tradition in order to understand the formation of transformative political collectives. Here\, Flatley focuses on Langston Hughes\, and Hughes’s engagement with the political and poetic problem of representing a black collectivity—first of all to itself. Flatley suggests that Hughes’s poetry speaks not only to fundamental questions in African American letters concerning the political import of black writing\, but also to basic questions in the Marxist tradition about the role of representation and aesthetic experience in the creation of a revolutionary “class-for-itself.” And he makes a case for the continuing relevance of Hughes’s poetry to the present moment\, when the representation and affirmation of black lives  remains a vital political and poetic task.

SUMMARY:Other:Ultrafast tabletop XUV spectroscopy of transition metal complexes and organohalide perovskites
DESCRIPTION:                                                                                                                                                X-ray absorption near edge spectroscopy (XANES or NEXAFS) is a powerful technique for electronic structure determination.  However\, widespread use of XANES is limited by the need for synchrotron light sources with tunable x-ray energy. Recent developments in extreme ultraviolet (XUV) light sources using the laser-based technique of high-harmonic generation have enabled core-level spectroscopy to be performed on femtosecond to attosecond timescales.  We have extended the scope of tabletop XUV spectroscopy and demonstrated that M2\,3-edge XANES\, corresponding to 3p→3d transitions\, can reliably measure the electronic structure of first-row transition metal coordination complexes with femtosecond time resolution.  We use this ability to track the excited-state relaxation pathways of photocatalysts and spin crossover complexes.  In semiconductors such as CH3NH3PbI3\, distinct signals are observed for photoinduced electrons and holes\, allowing the dynamics of each carrier to be tracked independently.  This work establishes high-harmonic spectroscopy as a useful tool for mainstream research in inorganic\, organometallic\, and materials chemistry.                         \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nJosh Vura-Weis (University of Illinois)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Law & Economics: Algorithmic Risk Assessment in the Hands of Humans
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \n\nAlgorithmic prediction tools have proliferated in modern society. They promise improved decision-making\, but contain the threat of entrenching race\, gender or class biases. Little is known about how their use affects real-world outcomes. We evaluate the impacts of incorporating algorithmic predictions of future offending (risk assessments) in high stakes decisions: criminal sentencing. Using multiple identification strategies – differences-in-differences\, discontinuities-in-time\, and discontinuities-in-risk-score – we seek to answer three questions: whether risk assessment affected judges’ decisionmaking (lowering sentences for low-risk defendants relative to higher-risk defendants)\, whether it affected net outcomes such as incarceration rates\, sentence lengths\, and recidivism\, and whether it affected racial disparities in incarceration. Our setting is Virginia\, a state which adopted risk assessment with specific policy goals: lowering carceral sentences for nonviolent offenders and increasing sentences for sex offenders. Overall we find that a) judges do change sentencing decisions in response to the risk assessment\, b) this change did not lead to any discernible increase in efficiency\, defined as lowering incarceration without affecting public safety or vice versa\, c) the specific policy goals were not met (net incarceration rates for nonviolent offenders remained the same\, and net incarceration rates for sex offenders decreased) and d) there is suggestive evidence that risk assessment can have an adverse effect on racial disparities in sentencing (among the subset of judicial circuits that responded most to the risk assessment\, incarceration rates for black defendants rose by 8 percentage points relative to white defendants).\n\nco-authored with Jennifer Doleac

SUMMARY:Presentation:Morag Myerscough: Belonging
DESCRIPTION:A proud Londoner\, Morag Myerscough has always lived in the city and has been fascinated by how color\, pattern\, and words can change urban environments and perceptions of spaces into places. From schools and hospitals to cultural hubs and town centers\, Myerscough explores the theme of “belonging” in her work\, using it to transform public spaces by creating welcoming\, engaging experiences for everyone. Myerscough’s Temple of Agape\, built for the 2014 Festival of Love on London’s South Bank\, used public space to create an open\, interactive symbol of devotion to love in all of its forms. Rooted in creating a sense of joy and belonging for all who encounter a space\, Myerscough creates specific local responses to each distinct audience that will see and experience her work\, using it to create community and build identity. Her visual vocabulary is inclusive by nature and its effortless energy resonates both visually and emotionally with audiences well beyond geographical and cultural boundaries. Myerscough’s contribution to educational environments was recognized in 2015\, when her work with Allford Hall Monaghan Morris on Burntwood School won the Stirling Prize for Architecture. She was made an RSA Royal Designer for Industry in 2017.\n\nSupported by Design Core Detroit Detroit Month of Design\, U-M Institute for the Humanities\, and Gifts of Art\, Michigan Medicine.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:High Stakes Culture
DESCRIPTION:We are in a moment in which a ‘culture war’—in large part about race—has been ignited and is being stoked daily by activists across the political spectrum and by the President of the United States himself. This high stakes culture war is playing out across digital media in ways that we need to better understand.\n\nPlease join us for a conversation about Childish Gambino’s “This is America” and the sprawling\, contentious conversation it sparked across the internet. What is he trying to say? How did the internet respond? How are our meaning making practices evolving? Why does culture matter so much now to so many\, and who gets to decide what it means?\n\nCome talk to humanities scholars Megan Ankerson (communication studies)\, Anita Gonzalez (theater)\, Robin Wilson (dance)\, Stephen Berrey (American culture & history)\, and moderator Angela Dillard (Afroamerican and African studies & Residential College) about these questions and others you might have about Childish Gambino’s America and yours.\n\nAbout the High Stakes Culture Series:\n\nFor the second year\, the High Stakes Culture series explores the “culture wars” that have recently been ignited across the country. Activists from all points of the political spectrum\, even the President of the United States himself\, are turning to beloved cultural objects to stake a claim for their differing beliefs in a politically fraught moment. Black athletes are taking a knee. Anti-immigration voters are rallying for a wall. Long-standing Confederate monuments are coming down.\n\nWhat is at stake in the ways we understand culture and cultural conflict? High Stakes Culture is a series\, presented by the Institute for the Humanities and the Humanities Collaboratory\, that brings humanities perspectives to bear on current debates. Join us as we ask: How and why does culture matter so much now?

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Open Lecture & Book Signing
DESCRIPTION:Carmen Bugan discusses how political repression and escaping persecution have influenced her writing and her views on language. Her lecture looks at several consequences of politics on the artistic process and argues for the necessity of addressing the larger\, timeless issues such as suffering\, hope\, and love\, rather than adopting a partisan politics in one’s literary work. In portraying the effects of turbulent politics on individual lives\, literature has a unique opportunity to ponder and celebrate our humanity. It can counteract the manipulative language of propaganda by drawing from the rich resources of a language that is able to sustain us through moments of political upheaval. Please use the \"To Register\" link below.\n\nBiography:\nBugan was born in 1970 in Romania and has since lived in the US\, Ireland\, England\, and France.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Arab American National Museum and CMENAS Film Screening. Arab Film Series: “Time for Ilhan”
DESCRIPTION:The Arab Film Series at the Arab American National Museum kicks off this fall on Thursday\, Sept. 20 with the new documentary about America's first Somali American lawmaker\, Minnesota's Ilhan Omar. \"Time for Ilhan\" shadows Ilhan and her scrappy group of dedicated campaign staffers throughout the entire campaign’s dramatic uphill battle. \n    \nA fresh take on the old story of the American Dream\, the film offers an inspiring\, stereotype-busting portrait of a rising political star and a vision of what is truly possible for women and New Americans in politics today. Up against a 43-year incumbent\, Omar is a Muslim\, refugee\, a woman of color who challenges the party’s status quo and defies gender norms within her own community. A talkback will follow the film. \n\n---\nThe Arab Film Series is made possible in part by Cinema Lamont\, Detroit SheTown Film Festival\, Cinema Detroit\, Henry Ford College\, FINAL GIRLS\, Center for Arab American Studies\, TAKE ON HATE\, The Seventh Art Stand\, The Henry Ford\, and the Dearborn Public Library.

SUMMARY:Performance:Archie Fisher & Garnet Rogers
DESCRIPTION:Tonight's concert brings original songwriters who work within deep traditions of place and song. Scottish folk master Archie Fisher is well known all over the British Isles as host of his own BBC radio show\, but his appearances stateside are to be cherished. Archie's most recent collection of songs \"Windward Away\,\" on which he worked for more than ten years. It's a gem—a haunting collection of introspective ballads\, evoking the wild and rough beauty of the Scottish Border country. One of a pair of brothers who spearheaded a tremendous renaissance in Canadian songwriting in the 1970s and 1980s\, Garnet Rogers tells detailed stories of people from all walks of life and their small\, everyday victories. He can shift from seriousness to razor-sharp wit in a heartbeat\, and no two of his shows are the same.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach-Out Series: Listening to Puerto Rico
DESCRIPTION:On September 20\, 2017\, Hurricane María struck the island of Puerto Rico with catastrophic force\, shattering lives\, communities\, infrastructure and the physical environment. One year later\, Puerto Rico remains in the grips of an ongoing and systematic crisis. \n\nIn June 2018\, teams from the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame traveled to Puerto Rico  to film testimonies from Puerto Ricans from all walks of life. In this Teach-Out\, you will hear powerful narratives of loss and recovery\, abandonment and resilience\, failure and hope as you come to better understand Puerto Rico’s past\, present\, and future. \n\nThese individual testimonials are complemented by resources that are meant to deepen your understanding of an urgent multidimensional crisis that involves policy\, culture and history\,  political economy\, environmental loss\, civil infrastructure\, public health\, and human dignity. In this teach-out\, we spotlight  a number of successful organizations\, strategies and solutions that are contributing to Puerto Rico’s recovery. \n\nUnderstanding begins with listening. But “listening” is not just about hearing people’s words: it also implies taking notice of\, and acting on\, what people say. Shaped by the individual experience of everyday life\, the Listening to Puerto Rico Teach-Out invites you to hear many voices from a distressed but resilient island and discover how you can contribute to the island’s recovery. \n\nThis Teach-Out is a collaboration between the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame. \n\nPlease join us in listening to Puerto Rico.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Celebrating Science & Art
DESCRIPTION:The brilliantly colored images in this exhibit were taken in the course of scientific research\, and are beautiful in their detail\, form and symmetry. For each one\, an accompanying explanation describes its significance. The subjects of the images are cells\, tissues and organs\, from a wide variety of biological sources (plants\, worms\, fruit flies\, fish\, mice and yes\, even human brain). The colors are added by investigators\, to allow them to see the otherwise transparent tissues. By looking at these microscopic images\, you will learn about research into normal embryonic development as well as cutting-edge investigations into diseases such as basal cell carcinoma\, bipolar disease\, epilepsy and cancer.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Innovations in Ornament
DESCRIPTION:This group show of jewelry and ornaments includes the work of Roger Martin\, who tackled the subject of a raven by relying on planes and shadow lines to imbue the surfaces of the bird with personality. Another one of the seven artists\, Lorraine Kolasa\, picked up the old fashioned art of tatting\, then cast tiny pieces of her handmade lace into sterling silver jewelry. Michael Nashef\, who spent half his life in war-torn Lebanon\, has created a series of innovative vessels and brooches. Other artists included in this exhibit are Kim Cridler\, Roger Smith\, Renee Zettle-Sterling and Ruth Taubman\, whose unmatched exuberance of color and 36 years of work and business innovation\, place her jewelry firmly on the national stage.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Organic Fiction: Acrylic on Canvas
DESCRIPTION:Hava Gurevich’s colorful abstractions feature botanical\, aquatic and microscopic motifs as she explores repeating patterns in nature. Blending images from the real world and her imagination\, Organic Fiction celebrates nature in all its beauty\, chaos and complexity. Hava Gurevich received a BFA in photography from U-M and an MFA in painting from Illinois State University. Her creative process begins with photographs and sketches of details in nature\, such as tree branches\, ice patterns\, twisted vines\, and delicate spring blossoms. These drawings contribute to her personal vocabulary of shapes and gestures\, and she often digitally combines them with older paintings to become starting points of new works.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Urban Biographies\, Ancient and Modern
DESCRIPTION:Human beings are political animals\, said the Greek philosopher Aristotle: animals that live in the “polis\,” the Greek word for city. Over two thousand years later\, we are still political animals\, and the study of ancient cities is of abiding interest\, for our perceptions of the urban centers of the past continue to exert a powerful hold on modern culture. \n\nThis exhibition showcases three Classical cities where the University of Michigan sponsors field projects: Gabii in Italy\, Olynthos in Greece\, and Notion in Turkey. The archaeologists excavating these cities\, in collaboration with students and faculty from U-M’s Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, are comparing their findings to projects of urban rebuilding in contemporary Detroit\, asking two main questions: How do contemporary archaeological methods facilitate the study of both ancient and modern cities? And how can the study of the past help illuminate the challenges and opportunities facing Detroit today? \n\nLead Curator: Christopher Ratté\nCo-Curators: Lisa Nevett\, Nicola Terrenato\, and Kathy Velikov\n\nVisit the exhibition website: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/urban-biographies

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:The Magic Laws of Music
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wondered what makes different styles of music unique? We will explore distinctive musical genres to understand the essence of their style and appeal. \n\nThe first meeting will describe what makes music “western”\, describing the sonic power of chords. They create anticipation and prediction in any type of western music and you will hear examples drawn from classic folk and popular music. The second session will explore Indonesian golden gong sounds\, in which time cycles guide the audience through many layers of sound. The third class will cover Japanese noh drama music\, which is characterized by the horizontal drive of drum patterns that equal vertical western chords. \n\nInstructor William Malm is a Professor Emeritus of Music from the University of Michigan. He is the founder of the World Music Program and Director of the Stearns Collection of Musical Instruments.  This study group for those 50 and above will meet on Fridays\, 10-11:30\, from September 21 through October 5.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Beyond Borders: Global Africa
DESCRIPTION:More than ever in the era of globalization\, ideas traverse geographic\, generational\, and cultural boundaries\, even as national borders seem to be closing.

Bringing together a dazzling array of works made in Africa\, Europe\, and the United States from the nineteenth to twenty-first century\, the exhibition demonstrates the international scope and reach of art from Africa and the African diaspora. It also explores issues such as slavery\, colonization\, migration\, racism\, and identity at play in the objects and their histories. Highlights include paintings\, photographs\, sculpture\, and installations by Kudzanai Chiurai\, Omar Victor Diop\, Wangechi Mutu\, and Serge Alain Nitegeka. The exhibition will be accompanied by a fully-illustrated publication\, the tenth in the UMMA Books series.\n\nLead support for 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Office of Research\, African Studies Center\, and Department of Afroamerican and African Studies.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire
DESCRIPTION:Have We Met: Dialogues on Memory and Desire draws inspiration from Ann Arbor’s legacy of social movements (Anti-War Movement\, Civil Rights Movements) and experimental art practices (The Once Group) from the late-1950s to the 1970s as its point of departure. It brings together archival materials and reproductions from the University of Michigan’s Labadie Collection and the Bentley Library in conjunction with radical artworks by diverse\, multi-generational artists and designers whose works are deeply influenced by the ideas of freedom and self-determination\; re-writing the canonical accounts of history\; and building contemporary culture and solidarity through collective action.\n\nAt a time when the idea of citizenship in the United States is being deeply challenged and redefined through horrific occurrences of gun violence and police brutality towards racialized and queer civilians and refugees\, this exhibition asks what role art institutions can play in building inclusive and vibrant creative spaces the 21st Century. Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire retraces and learns from models of collectivity and organizing mobilized by artists\, designers\, and cultural producers in the past and present as a lens to understand the contemporary moment and re-imagine the future.  It explores the complex relationships and at times overlapping and contested concerns between contemporary art\, design\, and social justice that continually influence and inform one another.\n\nArtists: Rudolf Baranik\, Stephanie Dinkins\, Emory Douglas\, Brendan Fernandes\, Chitra Ganesh\, Carole Harris\, Maren Hassinger\, Al Loving\, Josh MacPhee\, Native Art Department International\, Michele Oka Doner\, Yoko Ono\, Kameelah Janan Rasheed\, Martha Rosler\, Buster Simpson\, Gregory Sholette\, Leni Sinclair\, Stephanie Syjuco\, Graem Whyte\, and Zafos Xagoraris. \n\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Manufacturing Research Seminar Series: Industry 4.0: Implementation Challenges Across Technology\, People and PRocess
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nIndustry 4.0\, is the current manufacturing industry term that combines IoT\, Big Data and cloud computing to develop factories that have the ability to make real-time decisions based on large amounts of data. Some of the intended benefits are smarter more automated factories that can detect bottlenecks\, deficiencies and constantly align / optimize demand with supply. The underlying assumption is that a smart factory supports the overall company strategy and objectives. \n\nThus far\, much of the Industry 4.0 discussions has focused on the technology transformation tools (i.e. AR\, VR\, Big Data\, Additive Manufacturing\, Autonomous Robots & Co-bots\, Simulation). In this talk\, we’ll discuss the implementation challenges of these tools from a technology\, people\, process and financial perspective. We will examine the five different levels of automation and the transformational steps shops must adopt across the facility to advance towards the future state of an automated smart factory. Additionally\, we’ll review real-world examples of both high-volume manufacturers and the traditional job shop and share where they are along the automation continuum. \n\nBio\nJames Ricci is the Chief Technology Officer at Harbour Results\, Inc. He has more than 25 years of experience in engineering\, manufacturing\, quality and supply chain focused on implementing lean and process improvement initiatives\, developing and executing operational turnarounds\, developing manufacturing strategies\, performing competitive benchmarking and due diligence.\n\nIn his current role as CTO\, Ricci works with manufacturing organizations to improve their global competitiveness\, which includes transitioning to a data driven organization and implementing Industry 4.0 tools. \n\nRicci began his career at Honda of America Mfg.\, in engineering\, manufacturing and new program launch with responsibilities related to quality\, warranty\, production and cost competitiveness. Ricci worked for other notable organizations including KPMG LLP and Harbour Consulting where he was responsible for directing and executing projects to improve client operating performance\, including lean manufacturing implementation\, quality improvement and operational assistance in restructuring and manufacturing consolidation. Assignments included a two-year staff augmentation role as the interim Manufacturing Manager for a Ford vehicle assembly plant.\n\nRicci holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Industrial Engineering from the University of Pittsburgh and a Master of Engineering Management from the University of Michigan. He also is a Certified Supply Chain Professional (CSCP).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Marcel Dzama: A Jester's Dance
DESCRIPTION:Canadian artist Marcel Dzama is known for imaginative drawings\, sculptures\, dioramas\, and films rooted in the traditions of Surrealism\, Dada and outsider art. His 2013 film Une danse des bouffons (or A jester's dance) tells the tale of a romance between two principal figures of these traditions: Dada icon Marcel Duchamp and Brazilian sculptor Maria Martins\, who was the model for Duchamp's final\, enigmatic artwork Étant donnés.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Marcel Dzama: A Jester's Dance
DESCRIPTION:Canadian artist Marcel Dzama is known for imaginative drawings\, sculptures\, dioramas\, and films rooted in the traditions of Surrealism\, Dada and outsider art. His 2013 film Une danse des bouffons (or A jester's dance) tells the tale of a romance between two principal figures of these traditions: Dada icon Marcel Duchamp and Brazilian sculptor Maria Martins\, who was the model for Duchamp's final\, enigmatic artwork Étant donnés. Rife with art-historical references not only to the work of Duchamp but also to Francisco Goya\, Francis Picabia and Joseph Beuys\, among others\, Une danse des bouffons navigates a sexually charged and mesmerizing world in which fantasy and torture run amok. The gallery presentation also includes a storyboard for the film featuring Dzama’s ink and watercolor drawings\, renderings of small hybrid figures resembling children’s book illustrations.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Life Magazine 1947 Homecoming Photographs
DESCRIPTION:In October 1947\, just two years after the end of World War II\, the popular weekly news magazine LIFE sent staff photographers Lisa Larsen and Ralph Morse to cover homecoming weekend at the University of Michigan. The subsequent article\, “Michigan Homecoming\,” which brought national attention to UM’s athletic program\, featured a seven-page spread with photographs of the campus during a much-anticipated football game between the number-one ranked Michigan Wolverines and the University of Minnesota’s Golden Gophers. This installation provides a unique opportunity to view twenty-one images of that weekend\, many of which were not published in the original article\, recently donated to UMMA by John and Susan Edwards Harvith. Considered alongside the article\, these photographs of fervent fans\, strolling couples\, alumni making their annual pilgrimage\, and the game itself present LIFE magazine’s view of a giddy post-war public enjoying a return to American pastimes.\n\nThese photographs were recently gifted to UMMA by John (AB '69\, JD '73) and Susan (MMP '73) Harvith.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:See Through: Windows and Mirrors in Twentieth-Century Photography
DESCRIPTION:See Through: Mirrors and Windows in Twentieth-Century Photography brings together a group of images that are doubly framed—once by the camera lens and again by the border of a mirror or window. By refracting and distorting\, revealing and concealing\, these reflective and transparent surfaces both draw attention to the photographer’s efforts to frame the world and expose the contingent nature of reality. Highlights from the exhibition include works by Eugène Atget\, Robert Doisneau\, Elliott Erwitt\, Walker Evans\, André Kertész\, Joanne Leonard\, Danny Lyon\, and Joel Meyerowitz. By extending the limits of perception\, these witty and provocative works invite us to see [through to] new visual possibilities.\n\nLead support for See Through: Windows and Mirrors in Twentieth-Century Photography is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Seminar Series: Peter Orbanz\, Associate Professor\, Department of Statistics\, Columbia University
DESCRIPTION:A recent body of work\, by myself and many others\, aims to develop a statistical theory of network data for problems a single network is observed. Of the models studied in this area\, graphon models are probably most widely known in statistics. I will explain the relationship between three aspects of this work: (1) Specific models\, such as graphon models\, graphex models\, and edge-exchangeable graphs. (2) Sampling theory for networks\, specifically in the case statisticians might refer to as an infinite-population limit. (3) Invariance properties\, especially various forms of exchangeability. I will also present recent results that show how statistically relevant results (such as central limit theorems) can be derived from such invariance properties.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IOE 836 Seminar: Matthew P. Reed\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:Title: The Meaning is the Variance: Population Heterogeneity Should be the Focus of Ergonomics and Biomechanics Research\n\nBio: Matthew P. Reed\, PhD.\, is the Don B. Chaffin Collegiate Research Professor and head of the Biosciences Group of the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute. He also has appointments in Integrative Systems and Design\, where he is Chair of the interdisciplinary Design Science program\, and Industrial and Operations Engineering\, where he leads the Human Motion Simulation Laboratory in the Center for Ergonomics. Dr. Reed’s research focuses on vehicle safety\, engineering anthropometry\, and ergonomics. He is an author of more than 250 publications relating to humans in engineered systems. Dr. Reed is a Fellow in SAE International and a member of the SAE Human Accommodation and Design Devices Committee\, Driver Vision Standards Committee\, and Truck and Bus Human Factors Committee. He has received outstanding paper awards from SAE\, including the Arch T. Colwell Merit Award\, the Myers Award\, and the Isbrandt Award for crash safety research. He currently serves as vice-president of the International Research Council on the Biomechanics of Injury.\n\nAbstract: The “50th-percentile” male is never the limiting case\, and the “5th-percentile female” and “95th-percentile male” don’t exist. Why do people keep talking about them? I will discuss why mean and univariate effects in ergonomics and biomechanics often leave out most of the interesting phenomena and why we should focus our efforts in education and research on rigorous\, multivariate consideration of population heterogeneity with examples from industrial ergonomics\, product design\, and crash safety.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:ChE Special Seminar: David P. Fenning
DESCRIPTION:\"Defect-Tolerant? Nanoscale Insights into the Structural and Chemical Determinants of Halide Perovskite Optoelectronic Performance\"\n\nABSTRACT:\nHalide perovskites have attracted widespread interest for application in optoelectronics including solar cells\, LEDs\, and lasers because of their low-temperature synthesis and reported defect tolerance\, in stark contrast to commercialized silicon and thin film technologies. In this talk\, I will discuss how we are using nanoprobe X-ray microscopy to investigate the relationship between the defects that do appear in hybrid perovskites and optoelectronic performance and stability. Using a series of model materials\, we have studied the heterogeneity in local chemistry and structure in these films and its significant impact on charge collection and degradation. I will also share insights from our in situ nanoprobe investigations of non-stoichiometry in operating perovskite solar cells. By understanding and mitigating defects in the bulk and at interfaces\, we aim to systematically accelerate the development of these optoelectronic materials.\n\nBIO:\nDr. David P. Fenning is an Assistant Professor in NanoEngineering at UC San Diego\, where his group researches materials for solar energy conversion and storage. Currently\, his work focuses on defects and reliability in silicon and hybrid perovskite solar cells and CO2 electrocatalysis for solar fuels.  After completing his Ph.D. on silicon solar cell materials at MIT in 2013\, he worked with the silicon R&D team at 1366 Technologies Inc.\, followed by an MIT/Battelle postdoctoral fellowship in solar fuels. He joined the NanoEngineering department at UC San Diego in 2015. He is a recipient of the American Chemical Society’s PRF New Investigator award and was recognized as a 2017 Hellman Fellow. His research is supported by the DOE SunShot Initiative and the California Energy Commission.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Jim Crow and the Spatial Mismatch Hypothesis
DESCRIPTION:A robust body of social science research has investigated the spatial mismatch hypothesis (SMH)\, considering the consequences of geographic disparities between black residential locations and potential opportunities for employment. Focusing on U.S. urban areas between the 1970s and the present\, studies have produced equivocal evidence on the implications of spatial mismatch for black employment. In this paper\, we argue that the mixed evidence may result from a misspecification in both the historical time period and mechanisms whereby spatial mismatch affects black employment opportunities. We show that national declines in black employment and labor force participation\, particularly among black women\, were especially pronounced in the Jim Crow era (1880s-mid 1960s)\, rather than the post-industrial era (1970s to present) in which the SMH has generally been tested. We then investigate the extent to which the SMH should be formulated as a commuting problem\, involving the difficulties that blacks face in reaching non-residential sites of employment\, or a problem of residential ecology\, in which blacks who do not live near entrepreneurs or white neighbors are less likely to obtain jobs. Analysis of census micro-data between 1910 and 1970 suggests that residential segregation provides the most consistent account of black-white employment gaps\, insofar as employment under Jim Crow suffered when black housing was separated from the homes of business owners and work opportunities in residential locales.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Early Atlantic Workshop. Crowded Places: Slavery\, Science\, and the Roots of Fresh Air in the Atlantic World
DESCRIPTION:In the late-eighteenth century\, European chemists Antoine Lavoisier\, Joseph Priestley\, and Carl Wilhelm Scheele all individually claimed that they had first discovered the element oxygen. While the debate escalated among British\, German\, and French scientists\, British physicians proved the existence of oxygen by turning to the international slave trade. They showed how lack of oxygen among enslaved Africans crammed in the bottom of ships\, which traveled from Africa to the Caribbean\, led to high mortality rates. The international slave trade\, in turn\, made a scientific theory legible. Oxygen later emerged as a key element in the periodic table but how the international slave trade gave it scientific validity has been forgotten.\n\nThis paper grows out of Prof. Downs' book project\, \"The Laboring Dead: From Subjugation to Science in Global History.\"

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Seminars | Supersymmetric Localization: Review and Recent Progress
DESCRIPTION:Supersymmetric localization is a powerful tool that can provide us with some exact non-perturbative results of quantum field theories. In the first half of this talk we will review its basic idea and some important applications. The results of localization can be used to test some conjectured dualities\, for instance the Seiberg-like dualities in various dimensions\, and also to help set up new dualities. We will demonstrate these aspects with some examples. In the second half of this talk\, we will discuss some recent progress on the localization of 4d N=1 gauge theories. We consider 4d N=1 gauge theories on S2*R2 and compute their partition functions. The results are related to the partition functions of 4d N=1 gauge theories on the Omega background with two epsilon parameters\, which can be viewed as building blocks of the Nekrasov partition functions of the 4d N=2 theories on the Omega background. As an application\, we use the N=1 partition functions to test various dualities such as the 4d Seiberg duality. Further applications to the 4d Argyres-Douglas theories and the generalized AGT relation will also be discussed. This talk is based on a few papers 1309.3266\, 1411.4694\, 1505.06207\, 1705.01896 and some work in progress.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: The Making of a Continent
DESCRIPTION:Continents ride high because they are underlain by thick\, in contrast to the low riding ocean basins\, which have thin crust. The birth of continent is fundamentally controlled by processes that generate thick crust: magmatism and tectonic compression.  Continents are born in magmatic orogenies\, during which magmatism and thickening feedback on each other to influence the extent and nature of magmatic differentiation.  As crust thickens\, the depth and extent of differentiation increases\, eventually resulting in the fractionation of garnet\, which drives residual magmas towards silicic and iron depleted signatures. Eventually\, these garnet-rich cumulates\, owing to their high densities founder back into the mantle\, leaving behind a felsic continental crust.  A key component to continent formation processes is erosion. Erosion is highest during magmatism\, when the crust is thick and elevations high\, resulting in rapid synmagmatic exhumation.  As the magmatic and tectonic driving forces wane\, continued erosion gradually thins the crust\, causing elevations to decrease. With time\, thermal relaxation becomes important\, resulting in further subsidence.  Eventually\, the mountain subsides into a continental basin and transitions from erosion to deposition.  The final resting state of a continent depends on a number of factors\, including the average temperature of the mantle.  As the Earth cools\, the resting states of stable continents rise\, returning them to above sea level.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Linguistics Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:The Department of Linguistics Fall 2018 Colloquium Series begins September 21st with a presentation by Stephanie Shih\, Assistant Professor of Linguistics\, University of Southern California.\n\nABSTRACT\nCatching phonology in the Pokéverse: Cross-linguistic comparisons in sound symbolism\n\nSound symbolism flouts the core assumption of the arbitrariness of the sign in human language. The cross-linguistic prevalence of sound symbolism raises key questions about the universality versus language-specificity of sound symbolic correspondences. One challenge to studying cross-linguistic sound symbolic patterns is the difficulty of holding constant the real-world referents across cultures. In this talk\, I present a rich\, cross-linguistic dataset that addresses the challenges of cross-linguistic comparison by providing a controlled reference ‘universe’: the Pokémon game franchise. Pokémon names are compared across six languages—Japanese\, English\, Mandarin\, Cantonese\, Korean\, and Russian. The results show that while languages have a tendency to encode the same attributes with sound symbolism\, they crucially also feature differences in sound symbol-ism that are rooted in language-specific grammar dependence. The Pokémon findings are significant to understanding how phonology interacts with the real world\, in the cueing of socioculturally-defined categories.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Nanoparticles Meet Biological Membranes: Probing Interaction Using Molecular Simulations
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nOver the past decade\, with advances in high-performance computing and data science\, theory\,\nsimulation\, and computation continue to partner with experiment in discovery and innovation in\nnanoscience and nanotechnology. Some of the most exciting applications are in the field of biomedicine. Indeed\, a detailed understanding of the molecular details of interactions between nanoparticles and biological nanosystems\, such as membranes or macromolecules is crucial for obtaining adequate information on mechanisms of action of nanomaterials as well as a perspective on the long-term effects of these materials and their possible toxicological outcomes. In this talk I will report on a new model that we are developing to understand and to predict the interactions between carbon-based nanomaterials and biological membranes using structure-based computational molecular modeling. A rationale on how nanoparticles of different sizes\, shape\, structure and chemical properties can affect the organization of cellular membranes is also presented. This critical information will help enable the “safe-by-design” production of engineered nanoparticles that are nontoxic or biocompatible\, and also allow for the design of antimicrobial nanoparticles for environmental and biomedical applications.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:The Enigmatic KIME: Time Complexity in Data Science
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: We will provide a constructive definition of “Big Biomedical/Health Data” and provide examples of the challenges\, algorithms\, processes\, and tools necessary to manage\, aggregate\, harmonize\, process\, and interpret such data. In data science\, time complexity frequently manifests as sampling incongruency\, heterogeneous scales\, and intricate dependencies. We will present the concept of 2D complex-time (kime) and illustrate how the kime-order (time) and kime-direction (phase) affect advanced predictive analytics and scientific inference based on Big Biomedical Data. Kime-representation solves the unidirectional arrows of time problems\, e.g.\, psychological arrow of time reflects the irrevocable past to future flow and thermodynamic arrow of time reflecting the relentless growth of entropy. Albeit kime-phase angles may not always be directly observable\, we will illustrate how they can be estimated and used to improve the resulting space-kime modeling\, trend forecasting\, and predictive data analytics. Simulated data\, clinical observations (e.g.\, neurodegenerative disorders)\, and multisource census-like datasets (e.g.\, UK Biobank) will be used to demonstrate time-complexity and inferential-uncertainty.\n\nBio: Ivo D.

SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:Exhibition Reception: Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the work of artists and designers featured in Have We Met?. Live DJ\, refreshments and performance titled Activating the Prussian Blue (Ping Pong/Parlor) Table\, Buster Simpson\, 2018.\n\nHave We Met: Dialogues on Memory and Desire draws inspiration from Ann Arbor’s legacy of social movements (Anti-War Movement\, Civil Rights Movements) and experimental art practices (The Once Group) from the late-1950s to the 1970s as its point of departure. It brings together archival materials and reproductions from the University of Michigan’s Labadie Collection and the Bentley Library in conjunction with radical artworks by diverse\, multi-generational artists and designers whose works are deeply influenced by the ideas of freedom and self-determination\; re-writing the canonical accounts of history\; and building contemporary culture and solidarity through collective action.\n\nAt a time when the idea of citizenship in the United States is being deeply challenged and redefined through horrific occurrences of gun violence and police brutality towards racialized and queer civilians and refugees\, this exhibition asks what role art institutions can play in building inclusive and vibrant creative spaces the 21st Century. Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire retraces and learns from models of collectivity and organizing mobilized by artists\, designers\, and cultural producers in the past and present as a lens to understand the contemporary moment and re-imagine the future.  It explores the complex relationships and at times overlapping and contested concerns between contemporary art\, design\, and social justice that continually influence and inform one another.\n\nArtists: Rudolf Baranik\, Stephanie Dinkins\, Emory Douglas\, Brendan Fernandes\, Chitra Ganesh\, Carole Harris\, Maren Hassinger\, Al Loving\, Josh MacPhee\, Native Art Department International\, Michele Oka Doner\, Yoko Ono\, Kameelah Janan Rasheed\, Martha Rosler\, Buster Simpson\, Gregory Sholette\, Leni Sinclair\, Stephanie Syjuco\, Graem Whyte\, and Zafos Xagoraris.\n\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra. \n\nPlease RSVP to reserve your place for this free event: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/opening-reception-have-we-met-dialogues-on-memory-and-desire-tickets-49847845247

SUMMARY:Performance:Jill Sobule
DESCRIPTION:Jill Sobule - Nostalgia Kills\n\n“Nostalgia can be wonderful and amazing. It’s OK to look back. But then you gotta get the fuck out of there.” So says singer-songwriter Jill Sobule\, explaining the theme of her new album\, Nostalgia Kills.\n\n \n\nOn Nostalgia Kills (out September 14 on Jill’s own Pinko Records)\, the woman hailed by The New York Times for making “grown-up music for an adolescent age” turns her warm wit and poet’s eye on herself more than ever before\, revisiting moments from throughout her life that made her into the person she is today. It’s an especially poignant look back at childhood — “exorcising some junior high school demons\,” as she puts it.\n\n\nLooking back is a new experience for Jill Sobule. Ever since she first caught mainstream attention with her 1995 song “I Kissed a Girl” — the first song about same-sex romance ever to crack the Billboard Top 20 (and no relation to the later Katy Perry tune) — she’s always pushed forward\, exploring new sounds and subject matter with each passing album and refusing to be pigeonholed by her early hits (which also include the ‘90s alt-rock anthem “Supermodel\,” featured in an iconic scene in the film Clueless).\n\n \n\nAlong the way\, Jill has shared stages with the likes of Billy Bragg\, Cyndi Lauper and Warren Zevon\, written music for TV and theater\, and been a pioneer in the art of crowdfunding\, raising so much money for her 2009 album California Years that a then-unknown startup called Kickstarter came to her for advice. She’s also been active in numerous social and political causes\, performing at prisons as part of Wayne Kramer’s Jail Guitar Doors project\, playing dates with Lady Parts Justice’s “Vagical Mystery Tour\,” and curating Monster Protest Jams Vol. 1\, featuring protest songs by Tom Morello\, Billy Bragg\, Boots Riley\, Amanda Palmer\, Jackson Browne and many other great artists — including Jill’s own “When They Say We Want Our America Back\, What the F#@k Do They Mean?”\, which traces the history of anti-immigrant sentiment in America.\n\n \n\nFor Nostalgia Kills\, Jill worked with her good friend\, Australian singer-songwriter Ben Lee\, to cull the album’s 11 songs from a collection of over 100\, representing nearly a decade’s worth of material accumulated since the release of California Years. In turning those songs into an album\, she received a little extra motivation from an unlikely source.\n\n \n\n“I was at an industry party\,” she recalls. “And I heard this total douche saying\, you know\, once someone reaches the age of 40\, they can’t write a good song. And I went up to him and I was like\, ‘You don’t know me\, but you’re an idiot.’”\n\n \n\nMaking it her mission to prove her new nemesis wrong\, Jill took the songs into Lee’s home studio in Los Angeles with a supporting cast of players that included John Doe (X)\, Wayne Kramer (The MC5)\, Petra Haden (That Dog)\, Roger Joseph Manning Jr. (Jellyfish)\, and Richard Barone (The Bongos). “This was done with a lot of friends\,” she says. “It was very organic.” Many of the final mixes even contain elements of the original demos\, recorded with various apps on Jill’s iPad.\n\n \n\nRight from the jump\, Nostalgia Kills proves that this songwriter\, despite being a few years north of 40\, is still at the peak of her powers. How many artists of any age can write a song like “I Don’t Wanna Wake Up\,” an Old Testament head trip inspired by a bad breakup\, the death of a parent\, and microdosing mushrooms? Let alone have the nerve to make it their album’s opening track?\n\n \n\nFrom there\, Nostalgia Kills explores its titular theme through a collection of songs that ponder the past without ever lapsing into easy sentimentality. “I Put My Headphones On\,” as catchy as anything in Jill’s catalog\, captures the cozy feeling of tuning out the outside world with a favorite record. “Almost Great” is a ukulele-laced ode to youthful brushes with success and adult battles with procrastination. “Forbidden Thoughts of Youth” is a beautifully rendered portrait of adolescent unrequited love\, as Jill looks back at her first gay crush (“an incredible combination of Marcia Brady and future meth-smoking biker chick”).\n\n \n\n“Headphones” and “Forbidden Thoughts” will be part of #Fuck7thGrade\, a one-woman show about “the worst year of my life\,” and just the latest of Jill’s many forays into theater. Nostalgia Kills features new versions of several of Jill’s best songs for the stage: “There’s Nothing I Can Do” is a defiant breakup anthem from the off-off-Broadway musical Prozak and the Platypus\, sung from the perspective of a rebellious 17-year-old girl. “25 Cents” is from Times Square\, a new musical based on the 1980 cult film of the same name — and Jill’s own memories of visiting New York City as a teenager\, back when the city was still “scary and fascinating and full of junkies.” And the gorgeous ballad “Tomorrow Is Breaking My Heart” is one of several original songs Jill wrote for a new adaptation of Yentl\, Isaac Bashevis Singer’s tale of gender-bending romance later made famous by Barbra Streisand’s film adaptation.\n\n \n\nThere are two versions of “Tomorrow Is Breaking” on Nostalgia Kills — a mournful duet with John Doe\, and a special bonus track version featuring an amateur musician named Nicholas Ford\, who made a pledge to the Nostalgia Kills Kickstarter campaign in which the prize was to sing a duet with Jill. “I decided to do it in a different style with a piano and he kicked ass\,” she says proudly of Nicholas’ crooning accompaniment.\n\n \n\nNostalgia Kills’ bonus tracks also include “The Donor Song\,” on which Jill gives shout-outs to her Kickstarter backers (including Avengers director and Buffy the Vampire Slayer creator Joss Whedon\, whom Jill calls “my personal lord and savior” because he donated at the highest level)\, as well as lovely covers of The Stairsteps’ soul classic “O-o-h Child” and “Don’t Let Us Get Sick\,” a heartbreakingly beautiful\, late-career ballad by Jill’s friend and mentor\, Warren Zevon\, with whom she tour shortly before his death in 2003. “He used to come out during my set to sing ‘I Kissed a Girl’ with me\,” Jill remembers. “He would always wink at me when we would sing ‘They can have their diamonds and we’ll have are pearls’ to let me know he got the clitoral reference.”\n\n \n\nFor all its graceful\, funny and heartbreaking explorations of awkward youth and grown-up regrets\, Nostalgia Kills is as of-the-moment as anything in Jill Sobule’s catalog. Through her own experiences\, she explores issues our society still collectively struggles with (LGBTQ rights\, teen mental health\, our unhealthy obsession with staying forever young) and gently skewers our tendency to dwell on the past at the expense of addressing the present. As she sings on the title track: “We look at ourselves in a long row of mirrors/We get smaller and smaller with each passing year/We have to keep moving or die.”

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Teach-Out Series: Listening to Puerto Rico
DESCRIPTION:On September 20\, 2017\, Hurricane María struck the island of Puerto Rico with catastrophic force\, shattering lives\, communities\, infrastructure and the physical environment. One year later\, Puerto Rico remains in the grips of an ongoing and systematic crisis. \n\nIn June 2018\, teams from the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame traveled to Puerto Rico  to film testimonies from Puerto Ricans from all walks of life. In this Teach-Out\, you will hear powerful narratives of loss and recovery\, abandonment and resilience\, failure and hope as you come to better understand Puerto Rico’s past\, present\, and future. \n\nThese individual testimonials are complemented by resources that are meant to deepen your understanding of an urgent multidimensional crisis that involves policy\, culture and history\,  political economy\, environmental loss\, civil infrastructure\, public health\, and human dignity. In this teach-out\, we spotlight  a number of successful organizations\, strategies and solutions that are contributing to Puerto Rico’s recovery. \n\nUnderstanding begins with listening. But “listening” is not just about hearing people’s words: it also implies taking notice of\, and acting on\, what people say. Shaped by the individual experience of everyday life\, the Listening to Puerto Rico Teach-Out invites you to hear many voices from a distressed but resilient island and discover how you can contribute to the island’s recovery. \n\nThis Teach-Out is a collaboration between the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame. \n\nPlease join us in listening to Puerto Rico.

DESCRIPTION:The brilliantly colored images in this exhibit were taken in the course of scientific research\, and are beautiful in their detail\, form and symmetry. For each one\, an accompanying explanation describes its significance. The subjects of the images are cells\, tissues and organs\, from a wide variety of biological sources (plants\, worms\, fruit flies\, fish\, mice and yes\, even human brain). The colors are added by investigators\, to allow them to see the otherwise transparent tissues. By looking at these microscopic images\, you will learn about research into normal embryonic development as well as cutting-edge investigations into diseases such as basal cell carcinoma\, bipolar disease\, epilepsy and cancer.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Organic Fiction: Acrylic on Canvas
DESCRIPTION:Hava Gurevich’s colorful abstractions feature botanical\, aquatic and microscopic motifs as she explores repeating patterns in nature. Blending images from the real world and her imagination\, Organic Fiction celebrates nature in all its beauty\, chaos and complexity. Hava Gurevich received a BFA in photography from U-M and an MFA in painting from Illinois State University. Her creative process begins with photographs and sketches of details in nature\, such as tree branches\, ice patterns\, twisted vines\, and delicate spring blossoms. These drawings contribute to her personal vocabulary of shapes and gestures\, and she often digitally combines them with older paintings to become starting points of new works.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s
DESCRIPTION:Can abstract art be about politics? In the early 1970s\, that question was hotly debated as artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. Many of those debates centered on bringing to light the roles that gender and race played in how “great modern art” was defined and assessed\, and on employing art to advance civil rights. Within this discourse\, abstraction had an especially fraught role. To many\, the decision by women artists and artists of color  to make abstract art seemed to represent a retreat from politics and protest: an abnegation of a commitment to civil rights and feminism. \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" presents large-scale work by four leading American artists—Helen Frankenthaler\, Sam Gilliam\, Al Loving\, and Louise Nevelson—who chose abstraction as a means of expression within the intense political climate of the early 1970s.\n\nLead support for \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender. Additional generous support is provided by the Robert and Janet Miller Fund and the University of Michigan Department of Political Science.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Beyond Borders: Global Africa
DESCRIPTION:More than ever in the era of globalization\, ideas traverse geographic\, generational\, and cultural boundaries\, even as national borders seem to be closing. 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' reflects on this moment by considering how Africa and its artists have been at the center of complex histories of encounter and exchange for centuries. Bringing together a dazzling array of works made in Africa\, Europe\, and the United States from the nineteenth to twenty-first century\, the exhibition demonstrates the international scope and reach of art from Africa and the African diaspora. It also explores issues such as slavery\, colonization\, migration\, racism\, and identity at play in the objects and their histories. Highlights include paintings\, photographs\, sculpture\, and installations by Kudzanai Chiurai\, Omar Victor Diop\, Wangechi Mutu\, and Serge Alain Nitegeka. The exhibition will be accompanied by a fully-illustrated publication\, the tenth in the UMMA Books series.\n\nLead support for 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Office of Research\, African Studies Center\, and Department of Afroamerican and African Studies. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund and Susan Ullrich.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire
DESCRIPTION:Have We Met: Dialogues on Memory and Desire draws inspiration from Ann Arbor’s legacy of social movements (Anti-War Movement\, Civil Rights Movements) and experimental art practices (The Once Group) from the late-1950s to the 1970s as its point of departure. It brings together archival materials and reproductions from the University of Michigan’s Labadie Collection and the Bentley Library in conjunction with radical artworks by diverse\, multi-generational artists and designers whose works are deeply influenced by the ideas of freedom and self-determination\; re-writing the canonical accounts of history\; and building contemporary culture and solidarity through collective action.\n\nAt a time when the idea of citizenship in the United States is being deeply challenged and redefined through horrific occurrences of gun violence and police brutality towards racialized and queer civilians and refugees\, this exhibition asks what role art institutions can play in building inclusive and vibrant creative spaces the 21st Century. Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire retraces and learns from models of collectivity and organizing mobilized by artists\, designers\, and cultural producers in the past and present as a lens to understand the contemporary moment and re-imagine the future.  It explores the complex relationships and at times overlapping and contested concerns between contemporary art\, design\, and social justice that continually influence and inform one another.\n\nArtists: Rudolf Baranik\, Stephanie Dinkins\, Emory Douglas\, Brendan Fernandes\, Chitra Ganesh\, Carole Harris\, Maren Hassinger\, Al Loving\, Josh MacPhee\, Native Art Department International\, Michele Oka Doner\, Yoko Ono\, Kameelah Janan Rasheed\, Martha Rosler\, Buster Simpson\, Gregory Sholette\, Leni Sinclair\, Stephanie Syjuco\, Graem Whyte\, and Zafos Xagoraris. \n\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Marcel Dzama: A Jester's Dance
DESCRIPTION:Canadian artist Marcel Dzama is known for imaginative drawings\, sculptures\, dioramas\, and films rooted in the traditions of Surrealism\, Dada and outsider art. His 2013 film Une danse des bouffons (or A jester's dance) tells the tale of a romance between two principal figures of these traditions: Dada icon Marcel Duchamp and Brazilian sculptor Maria Martins\, who was the model for Duchamp's final\, enigmatic artwork Étant donnés. Rife with art-historical references not only to the work of Duchamp but also to Francisco Goya\, Francis Picabia and Joseph Beuys\, among others\, Une danse des bouffons navigates a sexually charged and mesmerizing world in which fantasy and torture run amok. The gallery presentation also includes a storyboard for the film featuring Dzama’s ink and watercolor drawings\, renderings of small hybrid figures resembling children’s book illustrations. The drawings underscore the fantastical elements in a film that combines the carnivalesque with a nightmarish exploration of the surreal.\n\nLead support for Marcel Dzama: A Jester's Dance is provided by Candy and Michael Barasch. Additional generous support is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Life Magazine 1947 Homecoming Photographs
DESCRIPTION:In October 1947\, just two years after the end of World War II\, the popular weekly news magazine LIFE sent staff photographers Lisa Larsen and Ralph Morse to cover homecoming weekend at the University of Michigan. The subsequent article\, “Michigan Homecoming\,” which brought national attention to UM’s athletic program\, featured a seven-page spread with photographs of the campus during a much-anticipated football game between the number-one ranked Michigan Wolverines and the University of Minnesota’s Golden Gophers. This installation provides a unique opportunity to view twenty-one images of that weekend\, many of which were not published in the original article\, recently donated to UMMA by John and Susan Edwards Harvith. Considered alongside the article\, these photographs of fervent fans\, strolling couples\, alumni making their annual pilgrimage\, and the game itself present LIFE magazine’s view of a giddy post-war public enjoying a return to American pastimes.\n\nThese photographs were recently gifted to UMMA by John (AB '69\, JD '73) and Susan (MMP '73) Harvith.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:See Through: Windows and Mirrors in Twentieth-Century Photography
DESCRIPTION:See Through: Mirrors and Windows in Twentieth-Century Photography brings together a group of images that are doubly framed—once by the camera lens and again by the border of a mirror or window. By refracting and distorting\, revealing and concealing\, these reflective and transparent surfaces both draw attention to the photographer’s efforts to frame the world and expose the contingent nature of reality. Highlights from the exhibition include works by Eugène Atget\, Robert Doisneau\, Elliott Erwitt\, Walker Evans\, André Kertész\, Joanne Leonard\, Danny Lyon\, and Joel Meyerowitz. By extending the limits of perception\, these witty and provocative works invite us to see [through to] new visual possibilities.\n\nLead support for See Through: Windows and Mirrors in Twentieth-Century Photography is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Urban Biographies\, Ancient and Modern
DESCRIPTION:Human beings are political animals\, said the Greek philosopher Aristotle: animals that live in the “polis\,” the Greek word for city. Over two thousand years later\, we are still political animals\, and the study of ancient cities is of abiding interest\, for our perceptions of the urban centers of the past continue to exert a powerful hold on modern culture. \n\nThis exhibition showcases three Classical cities where the University of Michigan sponsors field projects: Gabii in Italy\, Olynthos in Greece\, and Notion in Turkey. The archaeologists excavating these cities\, in collaboration with students and faculty from U-M’s Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, are comparing their findings to projects of urban rebuilding in contemporary Detroit\, asking two main questions: How do contemporary archaeological methods facilitate the study of both ancient and modern cities? And how can the study of the past help illuminate the challenges and opportunities facing Detroit today? \n\nLead Curator: Christopher Ratté\nCo-Curators: Lisa Nevett\, Nicola Terrenato\, and Kathy Velikov\n\nVisit the exhibition website: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/urban-biographies

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Panel Discussion: Looking Back/Moving Forward: Activating the Archive and Documenting a Movement
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a discussion on the social movements (Anti-War Movement\, Civil Rights Movements and Student Movements\, including the Black Action Movement) and experimental art practices (The Once Group) that were born and nurtured in Ann Arbor and on the University of Michigan campus from the late-1950s to the 1970s. Panel participants include artists\, educators and activists who played an active role in the happenings that defined these radical times in Ann Arbor’s history. This is a public program for the exhibition Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire on view at Stamps Gallery from Sept. 21 - Nov. 18\, 2018.\n\nPanelists: Julie Herrada (Curator\, Labadie Collection)\, Buster Simpson (Artist & Stamps Alum ‘69 MFA)\, Leni Sinclair (Artist & Activist)\n\nModerated by Diane Kirkpatrick\, Professor Emerita\, History of Art\, University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor.\n\n	\n\n\n		\n\n\nDiane M. Kirkpatrick\, Ph.D.\, Professor Emerita\, History of Art\, University of Michigan\, received her B.A. degree from Vassar College in 1955\, her M.F.A. degree from Cranbrook Academy of Art in 1957\, and her M.A. and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Michigan in 1965 and 1969\, respectively. Kirkpatrick joined the faculty as a lecturer in the history of art in 1968 and was promoted to instructor in 1969\, assistant professor in 1972\, associate professor in 1974\, and professor in 1982. A specialist in contemporary art\, including photography\, cinema\, and technological media\, Kirkpatrick has published widely\, has two books in progress\, and has presented numerous conference papers\, all while undertaking educational television productions\, guest curatorships\, and a wide range of media projects. She was a pioneer in recognizing the potential of computer technologies for research\, teaching\, and exhibiting.\n\n\n\n	\n\n\n		\n\n\nBuster Simpson has been active as an artist working in the public since the late 1960’s. His work ranges from stand alone sculpture to integrated and/or collaborative works. His work incorporates ecological\, historical\, social\, and technological considerations\, contextualizing them into a site specific aesthetic. His art\, its medium and product vary\, but the methodology and underpinning conceptual approach are consistent. All aspects of the public realm potentially could become part of the palette\; the landscape\, the infrastructure\, the built environment\, and the social and economic engagement. Simpson has stated\, “I prefer working in public spaces. The complexity of any site is its asset\; to build upon\, to distill\, to reveal its layers of meaning. Process becomes part and parcel to the art of the place.” Simpson has worked on major infrastructure projects\, site master planning\, signature sculptures\, museum installations\, and community projects. Simpson has completed numerous art master plans for urban centers and watersheds that integrate community\, ecology and art.\n\n\n\n	\n\n\n		\n\n\nLeni Sinclair was born in Koenigsberg\, East Prussia\, and raised on a Collective Farm in the former East Germany. She escaped from there before the Berlin Wall was built\, and emigrated to America with the help of relatives and settled in Detroit. While studying geography at Wayne State University in the early 1960s\, she helped organize the Detroit Artists Workshop and began documenting the cultural and political history of Detroit with her camera. She soon discovered the thriving Detroit jazz clubs and by mid-decade\, she also found herself amidst an explosive “Michigan Rock” scene\, working with emerging artists such as the MC5\, Iggy and the Stooges\, and Bob Seger while also serving as part of the lighting crew at the legendary Grande Ballroom. Leni possesses a genuinely iconic collection of photographs documenting the political and cultural transformations taking place in Detroit and Ann Arbor from 1965 to 1975. In 2009\, Leni had her first major museum exhibit at the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History in Detroit\, and since then had exhibitions in Lille\, France\; in Munich\, Germany\; and in Lagos\, Nigeria\, as well as at the Susanne Hilberry Gallery in Ferndale\, Michigan in 2014. From Coltrane and Sun Ra to Howlin’ Wolf\, Hendrix\, and Aretha Franklin\, Leni Sinclair’s images present not merely five decades of music photography\, but an essential portrait of American culture.\n\n\n\n	\n\n\n		\n\n\nBefore assuming the role of Labadie Collection curator in 2000\, Julie Herrada served for six years as assistant curator of the collection. Not only does she collect and manage holdings related to international social protest movements\, she also curates exhibits\, assists students and researchers from all over the world\, and is constantly collaborating and thinking of ways to preserve and provide universal access to hidden histories. Herrada has authored several book reviews and has published articles in professional journals such as Archival Issues\, Collection Building\, Progressive Librarian\, Serials Review and RBMS Journal (publication of the Rare Books and Manuscripts Section of the American Library Association). In 2002 Herrada was one of the first people selected as a Mover and Shaker by Library Journal. The award is bestowed on those in the library profession who are “innovative\, creative and making a difference.” In May of 2008 she was part of a small group who organized an international symposium called “Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Archives and the Ethics of Memory Construction”\, which explored the relationships between archives\, professional ethics\, power\, social justice\, and contemporary and historical accountability. In 2011 Herrada received the Distinguished Alumna Award from Wayne State University’s School of Library and Information Science.\n\nImage credit: Leni Sinclair\, “1520 Hill Street\, Ann Arbor\, 1970” \n\nPlease RSVP to reserve your place for this free event: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/looking-backmoving-forward-activating-the-archive-and-documenting-a-movement-tickets-49847891385

SUMMARY:Other:Saturday Sampler Tour | Archaeology
DESCRIPTION:When you visit the Kelsey Museum\, do you find yourself wondering how the artifacts on display were excavated? What techniques were used in the 1920s versus today? What can an artifact really tell us about the life of someone who lived thousands of years ago and very far away? On this tour\, we’ll answer these questions by looking closely at artifacts from the ancient Near East\, Greece\, Egypt\, and Rome. Plus\, you don’t want to miss the drone and earth resistance meter on display in Urban Biographies — two pieces of cutting-edge technology used by University of Michigan archaeologists in the field.\n\nSaturday Sampler tours are free and open to all visitors. If you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this tour\, please contact the education office (734-647-4167) at least two weeks in advance. We ask for advance notice as some accommodations may require more time for the University to arrange.

SUMMARY:Performance:John Popper
DESCRIPTION:One of the most phenomenal harmonica players in history\, John Popper formed his band\, Blues Traveler\, with his high school friends Brendan Hill (drums)\, Chan Kinchla (guitar) and Bobby Sheehan (bass)\, in the late 80s\, in New York City. They released their debut album in 1990 and hit the billboards with 1994's “Four.\" Following Blues Traveler's mainstream success\, Popper was able to release a solo album\, Zygote\, in 1999 and toured with his own John Popper Band. Zygote was produced by Terry Manning with the background band consisting of longtime friends Dave Ares\, Crugie Riccio\, and Rob Clores of Cycomotogoat\, and Carter Beauford\, the drummer of Dave Matthews Band. The album's release came only less than three months after his heart surgery\, and days after the death of Bobby Sheehan\, Popper's best friend and band mate. Unfortunately\, The subsequent tour was canceled midway due to poor ticket sales. Although his stage performances were becoming fewer\, he made a major appearance on the big screen taking his first actual role in a movie\, Just for the Time Being (2000)\, with supermodel Eva Herzigova. Soon after\, Blues Traveler rejoined forces with two new members\, and they have been touring and releasing albums ever since. This year marks the 30th anniversary of Blue Traveler as a band.\n\nPopper has co-written songs with Trey Anastasio\, Warren Haynes\, Chris Barron\, and Jonny Lang. He also frequently appears as a guest performer with musicians both famous and obscure\, from a diverse variety of genres. He has performed with\, among others\, jam bands Spin Doctors\, Dave Matthews Band\, Phish\, The Allman Brothers Band\, bluesmen Eric Clapton and B.B. King\; singer-songwriters Jason Mraz and John Mayer\; saxophonist Karl Denson\; San Francisco's Culann's Hounds\; heavy metal band Metallica\; rock trio ZO2 and even with the Hungarian Ambassador to the United States\, András Simonyi and then-vice-presidential-candidate Tim Kaine.\n\nIn addition to Popper’s musical accomplishments\, he has appeared in a cameo in several films: the Farrelly Brothers' Kingpin (1996) (which included a Blues Traveler performance at the end)\, Howard Stern's Private Parts (1997)\, Blues Brothers 2000 (1998)\, and The Meddler (2016).\n\nLos Angeles songwriter Katrina Woolverton opens.
