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.

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:Conference / Symposium:Decipher: 2018 Design Educators Research Conference
DESCRIPTION:The Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design is proud to host Decipher\, a three-day\, hands-on design research conference that will take place on the U-M campus September 27-29\, 2018.\n\nPresented by the AIGA Design Educators Community in partnership with the new DARIA Network (Design as Research in the Americas)\, Decipher is co-chaired by Stamps professors Kelly M. Murdoch-Kitt and Omar Sosa Tzec.\n\nDecipher will adopt a unique\, interactive format to address crucial themes of defining\, doing\, disseminating\, supporting\, and teaching design research. There will be no formal “paper presentations\,” instead all conference attendees will participate in focused conversations\, activity groups\, and workshops. These sessions will be comprised of Participants and Facilitators. Participants attend the conference and are expected to engage in all of the sessions. Facilitators plan and lead the sessions for participants. Facilitators also have an additional expectation of documentation and dissemination of their session following the conference. The submission\, review\, and selection process of Facilitators has been completed\, but our call to people interested in joining us as Participants is still open! \n\nFor information about the brief written submission required to attend the conference as a participant (deadline: September 1st\, 2018): https://educators.aiga.org/participate-in-decipher-2018/\n\nFor answers to common questions about the conference: https://educators.aiga.org/decipher-faq/\n\nFor questions about the conference: decipher2018@umich.edu\n\nThere are also volunteer opportunities at Decipher for students from the Stamps community and beyond. Join the Decipher team to gain insights into design research and contemporary design dialogues\, meet and network with design practitioners and faculty from a variety of disciplines and perspectives\, take part in some conference sessions and events for free\, and add a great line to your resume! Volunteer activities may include manning registration tables\, assisting session facilitators\, helping with wayfinding for guests\, producing photographic and video documentation\, installing exhibitions\, hanging signs\, assisting with special events\, making social media updates\, and more.  We ask that each volunteer work approximately 10-20 hours before and during the conference\, depending upon availability.\n\nTo sign up as a student volunteer: http://bit.ly/deciphervolunteers\n\nFor questions about volunteering: deciphervolunteers@umich.edu

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:Conference / Symposium:Green Life Sciences Symposium 2018: Plant-Environment Interactions Across Scales
DESCRIPTION:Plants interact with both a variety of community members (other plants\, the microbial community\, pollinators\, herbivores) and are exposed to a variety of abiotic environmental stressors (drought and changing climate\, human-mediated agents of selection). These interactions are often examined at the phenotypic level by evolutionary ecologists whereas the mechanistic basis of such interactions are detailed by molecular geneticists\; longer-term outcomes of such interactions are assessed by paleobiologists. It is rare\, however\, that plant-environment interactions are examined across scales within the same system\, i.e. from genes\, to molecular mechanism\, phenotype\, fitness\, and deeper evolutionary patterns across time. The aim of this conference is to highlight the work of prominent evolutionary ecologists\, molecular geneticists\, ecophysiologists\, and paleobiologists at the University of Michigan and beyond that examine similar plant-interaction phenomena but at very different scales of study. Our overall goal is to stimulate new collaborations and novel takes on overlapping phenomenon studied across scales.\n\nIllustration: John Megahan.

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: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:Lecture / Discussion:CSEAS Friday Lecture Series. Physiologies of the Flesh: Medical and Moral Matter in Late Colonial Indonesia
DESCRIPTION:In the early 20th century\, the Netherlands East Indies was awash with revivalist and reformist movements. These included Christian missionaries seeking to overcome the failures and frustrations of the previous century and Muslim reformists seeking to reform their faith to meet the political\, epistemological\, and moral challenges of colonial modernity. Both looked to a common resource in pursuit of reform and revival: modern medicine and the medical body. Although often recognizing this convergence of religious and medical modernity among Muslims and Christians in late colonial Indonesia\, historians have done very little to examine critically the role that health\, medicine\, and the medical body played in these projects or the many differences that existed in their appropriations and uses of modern medical discourse and practice. This talk attempts to address these historiographical gaps. It specifically examines how Protestant missionaries and Muslim reformers in Central Java used medical discourse and practice—especially questions of physiology and etiology—to pursue wider ethical\, epistemological\, and devotional projects of modernity. In doing so\, it considers how Protestant and Muslim reformers theologized modernity from conditions of the flesh. \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:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Seminar Series: Li Ma\, Associate Professor\, Department of Statistical Science\, Duke University
DESCRIPTION:We introduce a method---called Fisher exact scanning (FES)---for testing and identifying variable dependency that generalizes Fisher's exact test on $2\times 2$ contingency tables to $R\times C$ contingency tables and continuous sample spaces. FES proceeds through scanning over the sample space using windows in the form of $2\times 2$ tables of various sizes\, and on each window completing a Fisher's exact test. Based on a factorization of Fisher's multivariate hypergeometric (MHG) likelihood into the product of the univariate hypergeometric likelihoods\, we show that there exists a coarse-to-fine\, sequential generative representation for the MHG model in the form of a Bayesian network\, which in turn implies the mutual independence (up to deviation due to discreteness) among the Fisher's exact tests completed under FES. This allows an exact characterization of the joint null distribution of the $p$-values and gives rise to an effective inference recipe through simple multiple testing procedures such as \v{S}id\'{a}k and Bonferroni corrections\, eliminating the need for resampling. In addition\, FES can characterize dependency through reporting significant windows after multiple testing control. The computational complexity of FES is approximately linear in the sample size\, which along with the avoidance of resampling makes it ideal for analyzing massive data sets. We use extensive numerical studies to illustrate the work of FES and compare it to several state-of-the-art methods for testing dependency in both statistical and computational performance. Finally\, we apply FES to analyzing a microbiome data set and further investigate its relationship with other popular dependency metrics in that context.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IOE 836 Seminar: Albert Fu and HFES Chapter
DESCRIPTION:Title: Lumped Parameter Modeling of Human Gait for Predicting and Evaluating Drop Foot Patient’s Gait\n\nBio: The University of Michigan Human Factors and Ergonomics Society Student Chapter is organized to serve the needs of the human factors profession at the University of Michigan. Its purpose is to promote and advance the understanding of human factors involved in the design\, manufacture\, and use of machines\, systems\, environments\, and devices of all kinds through the interchange of knowledge and methodology in the behavioral\, biological\, and physical sciences and in industrial and operations engineering\, design science\, computer science\, information\, psychology\, and other relevant disciplines.\n\nAbstract: There will be two parts of this talk. The first part\, will be about the University of Michigan HFES Student Chapter\, including goals\, events\, and membership benefits. The second part\, will cover Albert's own research. The research focuses on human gait modeling which is motivated by the demands of a decision support system in orthotic clinics. This system aims at using AFO designs and patient's individual parameters as inputs\, to predict and evaluate the gait pattern\, and then to guide the AFO designs. The current gait model utilizes pendulum and inverted pendulum movements to approach the human gait.\n\nRefreshments Provided!

SUMMARY:Presentation:Psychology Methods Hour
DESCRIPTION:Voodoo Correlations Revisited: Biased Analysis in Neuroimaging and Behavioral Data\n\nNearly a decade ago\, Vul and colleagues (2009) published a paper criticizing then-current methods of region of interest (ROI) analysis. Their criticism focused on what is called biased or circular analysis\, in which data is extracted from voxels that are already defined as statistically significant\, leading to inflated effect sizes. In this talk I will outline the history of the debate\, explain why it is still relevant in both neuroimaging and behavioral studies\, and discuss ways you can prevent inadvertently doing biased analyses.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AE285 Undergraduate Seminar Series - Aerospace Through the Decades
DESCRIPTION:In this seminar we will explore the progress of Aerospace as seen through the eyes and career of Karen Albrecht. This seminar will discuss the infancy of space travel in the 60's and discuss the changes and transformation of Aerospace through the 2010's.  She will discuss the many facets of Aerospace and how your education and knowledge of the Michigan education can take you to meet your goals.  Additionally\, Karen will provide insights into the career and recruiting process of the industry.  Her experience in creating engineering predates the use of computers and CAD systems to design and analyze aerospace vehicles.  She will also reveal how the course \"Geography of the Soviet Union\" played a key part in her career.\n\nAbout the speaker...\nKaren’s illustrious career as an Aerospace Engineer began at NASA JSC where she developed analytic methods for composite primary structure under fatigue and fracture mechanics for Space Shuttle. Karen participated in the Longitudinal Study of Astronaut Health (LSAH). \n\nAt Lockheed Martin\, she worked on Missile Launching Systems\, Basic Research\, Commercial Aircraft\, Undersea Systems\, SMART Structures\, Robotics and high performance Military Aircraft. She developed embedded fiber optics technology. She is a Master Black Belt in 6-sigma and Lean Engineering.\n\nKaren serves on several university engineering and non-profit boards. Karen is the 2007 Distinguished Alumnus –Aerospace for the UM.  \n\nKaren is now CEO of Karen Albrecht Enterprises a Career and Personal Development Organization. Karen has delivered over 200 seminars for courses she developed and gives her time and knowledge to help students navigate career fairs and resume. Karen has set up an endowment fund for Aerospace undergraduate education and provides scholarships for Aerospace Engineering students who need the support to finish their education at the University of Michigan. She has already given out 5 scholarships to Aero students.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Cultural Entrepreneurship: A New Agenda for the Study of Entrepreneurial Processes and Possibilities
DESCRIPTION:Innovation and entrepreneurship lie at the heart of our modern economy. Yet while scholars have long examined the economic drivers of innovation and entrepreneurship\, we know less about the cultural forces which shape these dynamics. To the extent that the existing entrepreneurship literature has considered how culture shapes innovation and entrepreneurship\, it has mainly been viewed as a constraining force which limited and hindered the creation of novelty. This is especially true for economic approaches to entrepreneurship and innovation. I will present ideas from a forthcoming book in development with Mary Ann Glynn that leverages contemporary cultural approaches to entrepreneurship that were\, in part\, seeded by our 2001 SMJ paper on cultural entrepreneurship. In contrast to conceptualizing culture as a normative constraint\, recent scholarship draws more from Swidler's notion of culture as a toolkit\, highlighting the importance of cultural skill in the context of entrepreneurial action. I will review key arguments from the book that sketches an agenda for future research on cultural entrepreneurship\, highlighting the fruitfulness of a field analytic approach and a focus on projective agency. An example from the development of nanotechnology will be used to illustrate key arguments.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Comparing Roman Hellenisms
DESCRIPTION:Hellenism\, defined as the “adoption or imitation of (elements of) the ancient Greek language\, culture\, philosophy\, etc.” (OED) is central to Roman civilization throughout long periods of its history. Consequently many important aspects of Roman culture and society come into sharper focus through examining the specific forms that Roman Hellenism took at different times\, in different places\, and in different media. These include changes in processes of acculturation at Rome\, in how the Romans’ created meaning and identity\, in the ways various art forms expressed cultural values\, etc. Yet the matter of what scholars do when they compare Roman Hellenisms\, and the practical and conceptual issues that such acts of comparison presuppose and raise\, have never received a focused study of their own. \n\nThe organizers of this conference have sought papers addressing this problem. The conference features an international list of speakers combining major scholars from outside the University with faculty at U-M. It includes researchers working in a variety of fields (archaeology\, literature\, history\, art history) and historical periods (from Rome’s origins to Late Antiquity) so as to encourage the most wide-ranging discussion possible.\n\nSchedule of events:\n\nFriday\, September 28\n\n2:00 Welcome\n\nPanel I: Re-Inventing and Re-Presenting Roman History\, Art\, and Literature\n\n2:15 David Potter (University of Michigan)\, \"Lycophron\, Cato and the Invention of Italian History\"\n\n2:45 Roman Roth (University of Cape Town)\, \"‘Inuenio et Pythagorae et Alcibiadi in cornibus comitii positas’ (Plin.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Comp Lit Alumni Panel: Looking Backward\, Looking Forward
DESCRIPTION:Join alumni Sara Grewal\, Ramon Stern\, and Bram Acosta as they address diversity\, equity\, and inclusion within the context of Comparative Literature. By drawing on their own experiences at the University of Michigan and their home institutions\, alumni will discuss the obstacles that women and underrepresented students experience to timely completion and develop strategies to support them. To this end\, they will address the following questions: What obstacles  to your health\, wellbeing\, and education did you encounter? How did you find allies? How can you be allies to others? How do you foster a collegial environment? What forms of collaboration did you value when you were in grad school? How did your perspectives shift throughout and after your graduate school experience?\n\nThis panel is aimed at Comparative Literature graduate students. Refreshments provided.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Seminar | Black Holes\, Nuggets\, & Blobs. Oh my!
DESCRIPTION:The past few years have seen a growing interest to explore dark matter candidates that are outside of the standard WIMP / axion paradigms.  A resurgence of macroscopic dark matter candidates have brought with it a mix of whimsical names — primordial black holes\, asymmetric dark matter nuggets\, and dark blobs — to name a few.  In general the difficulty with macro dark matter is not the observational constraints\, which are typically quite sparse and weak\, but rather the challenge is finding a well-motivated mechanism for producing gram-sized dark matter objects.  In this talk\, I will argue that “dark quark nuggets” are a generic prediction of confining\, hidden-sector gauge theories.  I will discuss the phenomenology of these theories\, the cosmological production of dark quark nuggets\, and their observational probes.

The photographs speak to the close relationship of these communities with the natural and spiritual worlds. They record the daily lives of the Maya but also evoke their underlying world of mystical and religious experience -- the rituals that give continuity and permanence in a world of disposable culture. The work focuses on indigenous healers\, many of whom are women believed to have connections with the supernatural. They use ancient Maya practices and derive theirpower and knowledge from dreams. These rituals survive despite the genocide of the Maya people perpetrated over several decades until 1996. The resurgence of Maya identity in the renewal of formerly suppressed Maya practices celebrates the endurance of indigenous cultures. \n\nFran Antmann is a photographer\, writer and educator. She teaches photography at Baruch College\, CUNY. Her photographic work has focused on the lives and culture of theindigenous people of Guatemala and Peru as well as the Dene people of the Western Canadian Arctic and the Inuit of Baffin Island\, Canada. She has received grants from the Ford and J. Paul Getty Foundations\, the Puffin Foundation\, the Social Science Research Council and five NY State Foundation for the Arts fellowships in Photography and Non-Fiction Literature. For over a decade she worked on Maya Healers: A Thousand Dreams withyearly trips to Guatemala. The book is a fiscally sponsored project of the New York Foundation for the Arts\, a finalist for the 2017 Lucie Foundation Photo Book Prize and received Honorable Mention from PX3 Prix de la Photographie Paris Juried Awards 2018.\n\nFran Antmann is a photographer\, writer and educator.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Under the Feet of Dinosaurs: A New View of Late Cretaceous Landscapes Along the Margin of the Western Interior Seaway
DESCRIPTION:Terrestrial ecosystems occupying the coastal floodplains of western North America during the Late Cretaceous were comprised of diverse assemblages of plants (e.g. gingkos\, conifers and angiosperms) and herbivorous vertebrates (e.g. hadrosaurid and ceratopsid dinosaurs)\, even over relatively small spatial scales. Such taxonomic diversity is unusual\, and begs the question of how these organisms were distributed over\, and were influenced by\, the landscapes they occupied. In an effort to answer this question\, stable isotope isotope data have been collected from hadrosaurid tooth enamel & dentine\, gar fish scales\, paleosol alkanes and carbonate nodules\, and micritic pond carbonates of the Campanian-aged Kaiparowits Formation in southern Utah. Results suggest the existence of fluvial systems akin to those of present-day Cambodia\, with interfluves impacted by episodic flooding and the resultant mixing of water from low and high elevation sources.  Carbon cycling in interfluve soils took place via oxidation and/or methanogenesis\, depending on soil drainage/the degree of seasonal flooding.  Vegetation appears to track landscape-scale variations in hydrology and carbon cycling\, with closed-canopy and open–canopy forests associated with wetter and drier environments\, respectively.  In turn\, the movement of dinosaurs appears to track vegetation\, with different groups eating vegetation from only one type of forest or the other. Taken together\, these results suggest that differences in soil drainage over a landscape allowed for the occurrence of many unique floral assemblages in close proximity\, each of which supported its own faunal assemblage.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CSAS Lecture Series | Buddhism\, Secularism and the Pyrrhic Constitutionalism of Sri Lanka
DESCRIPTION:More than half of all constitutions in South and Southeast Asia give special privileges and/or status to a single religion. Despite this fact\, most scholars still treat these types of laws as though they were anomalous. Aside from transgressing the presumed neutrality of contemporary public law\, religiously preferential constitutions are also assumed to give clear political or economic advantages to members of the preferred religious groups.\n\nYet\, are these worries valid? Are religious supremacy clauses always an unequivocal boon for the majority religious groups? Moreover\, when it comes to the functioning of constitutional law in society\, how different are mechanism and effects of religiously preferential constitutions compared with secular ones?\n\nDrawing on my recent book\, and ongoing research\, I explore these questions in the context of Sri Lanka—a country that\, for the last four decades\, has given Buddhism special constitutional status. Through an analysis of Buddhist doctrine\, monastic practices and legal theory I hope to complicate existing wisdom about the effects of religious supremacy clauses and to challenge the assumed binary opposition between secular constitutions and religious preferential ones.  \n\nBenjamin Schonthal is Associate Professor of Buddhism and Asian Religions at the University of Otago\, in New Zealand. His research examines the intersections of religion\, law and politics in late-colonial and contemporary Southern Asia\, with a particular focus on Buddhism and law in Sri Lanka. His work appears in The Journal of Asian Studies\, Modern Asian Studies\, the International Journal of Constitutional Law and other places. Ben's first book\, Buddhism\, Politics and the Limits of Law\, appeared with Cambridge University Press in 2016. His current project\, supported by the Marsden Fund of the Royal Society of New Zealand\, examines the lived practices of monastic law in contemporary Sri Lanka and their links with state-legal structures.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Folded Viral RNAs that Sense and Manipulate the Host Cell Machinery: Windows to RNA Structure-Based Regulation
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: RNA is perhaps the most functionally diverse biological macromolecule\, due in large part to its ability to adopt a wide range of conformationally dynamic structures. The Kieft Lab is interested in understanding how RNA can adopt diverse three-dimensional folds\, how those folds give rise to its many biological roles\, and how conformational changes confer RNA’s ability to regulate so many processes. We are particularly interested in viral RNAs\, which are fine-tuned by evolution to elegantly and powerfully interact with and manipulate the cellular machinery of the host cell\; these viral RNAs provide a “window” into the greater RNA world. In this presentation\, I will present some of our recent findings in regard to a viral RNA that adopts an unexpected tertiary structure. This RNA element undergoes programmed conformational changes that are triggered by its interactions with the host cell machinery and this is responsible for its unique function. This RNA may be a paradigm for novel modes of regulation linked to dynamic RNA conformational changes.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistical Models for Analyzing Dynamic Social Network Data
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Due in part to the ubiquity of online social networks these days\, interest in analyzing social network data has spread beyond its traditional home in the social sciences to many other disciplines including physics\, computer science\, statistics\, and engineering. A topic of significant importance in social network analysis is the creation of statistical models for social network data. Many social network data involve relations between people observed at multiple points in time and are thus dynamic network data. In this talk\, I introduce several statistical models for analyzing two types of dynamic network data. Discrete-time network data\, also known as network panel data\, represent the structure of the social network at regular time intervals\, e.g. over each week or each month.Continuous-time network data\, also known as timestamped network or relational event data\, are collected with finer granularity on the time and at irregular time intervals. I demonstrate how these models can be used to infer network structures and how they evolve over time on several dynamic social network data sets\, including a network of physical proximities between people at a university and a network of wall posts between users on Facebook.\n\nBio: Kevin S.

This timeless classic is contrasted with the premiere of a composition by Judy Bozone\, a recent U-M alumna\, based on her recollections of living in Thailand. Higdon’s Percussion Concerto exploits the traditions of the classical concerto form infused with her award-winning compositional language. Premiered in Hill Auditorium in 1967\, Nelson’s Rocky Point Holiday was an instant classic and has been an audience favorite for more than half a century!\n\nPROGRAM: Mozart- Serenade No.10 “Gran Partita”\, Mvt. 1\, 3\, 4\, and 7\; Judy Bozone- Spilled Orange (premiere performance)\; Jennifer Higdon- Percussion Concerto\, Danielle Gonzalez\, soloist\; Ron Nelson- Rocky Point Holiday

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: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:Conference / Symposium:Comparing Roman Hellenisms
DESCRIPTION:Hellenism\, defined as the “adoption or imitation of (elements of) the ancient Greek language\, culture\, philosophy\, etc.” (OED) is central to Roman civilization throughout long periods of its history. Consequently many important aspects of Roman culture and society come into sharper focus through examining the specific forms that Roman Hellenism took at different times\, in different places\, and in different media. These include changes in processes of acculturation at Rome\, in how the Romans’ created meaning and identity\, in the ways various art forms expressed cultural values\, etc. Yet the matter of what scholars do when they compare Roman Hellenisms\, and the practical and conceptual issues that such acts of comparison presuppose and raise\, have never received a focused study of their own. \n\nThe organizers of this conference have sought papers addressing this problem. The conference features an international list of speakers combining major scholars from outside the University with faculty at U-M. It includes researchers working in a variety of fields (archaeology\, literature\, history\, art history) and historical periods (from Rome’s origins to Late Antiquity) so as to encourage the most wide-ranging discussion possible.\n\nSchedule of events:\n\nFriday\, September 28\n\n2:00 Welcome\n\nPanel I: Re-Inventing and Re-Presenting Roman History\, Art\, and Literature\n\n2:15 David Potter (University of Michigan)\, \"Lycophron\, Cato and the Invention of Italian History\"\n\n2:45 Roman Roth (University of Cape Town)\, \"‘Inuenio et Pythagorae et Alcibiadi in cornibus comitii positas’ (Plin.

DESCRIPTION:This fall’s biennial U-M History of Art Graduate Student Symposium: Expansive Realities: A Longer History of the “Virtual” in Art\, Architecture\, and Visual Culture aims to foster discussions of the theoretical\, social\, and cultural nature of this phenomenon. While often linked to the digital age\, the virtual implies imagined and immersive spaces that despite their defiance of material and physical boundaries impact these nonetheless. Ten graduate students in art history and related fields from the University of Michigan and other institutions will present papers that collectively address the impact of the virtual on the mind\, body\, and the construction or cementation of boundaries.\n\nExpansive Realities is further delighted to host Kristina Kleutghen\, David.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Reclaiming Diasporicity: Emergent Subjectivities in Sikh\, Punjabi and South Asian Contexts
DESCRIPTION:This workshop brings scholars of Sikh and South Asian studies from across the disciplines to explore new ways of reimagining single 'diasporicity' and further expand the conceptual toolbox with which to refine and redeploy the notion of diaspora beyond its function as a sociological descriptor.\n\nThe purpose of the conference is to reconsider our understanding of the \"diasporic\"as emergent subjectivity\, or as articulating a form of life with the impulse and capacity to create alternative modes of becoming and being through lived experiences\, rather than merely being subject to the kind of binaries that mark conventional notions of diaspora.\n\nFood and refreshments will be provided.

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: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: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:Other:Saturday Sampler Tour | Newberry Hall and the Tiffany Window
DESCRIPTION:\"I've always wondered what was in this building\" is a common refrain from visitors to the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology. Completed in 1891\, Newberry Hall is one of the oldest buildings on the University of Michigan campus. Join us on a guided walk through this Richardsonian Romanesque building and learn about its architecture and fascinating history. \n\nThe highlight of the tour is an up-close view of the glorious Tiffany stained-glass window in the Kelsey Museum library. Julia Truettner\, U-M preservationist and building historian\, describes the window as follows: \n\n\"The Fox memorial window utilizes many kinds of glass\, including roundels and chunks or nuggets\, as well as plated layers\, to produce a range of colors from rich claret and deep sapphire to greens\, golds\, and lighter shades of pinks\, yellows\, and blues. The abstract design incorporates not only geometric forms but also floral and vegetable motifs\, such as the green pods around the perimeter and the petal-like forms at the bottom\, which embrace the panels naming the honorees. These forms\, plus the medallion at the top with its floral images surrounded by roundels\, hint at Tiffany's coming mastery of landscape\, figural\, and ecclesiastical designs.\" \n\nSpace on the tour is limited to 30 participants. Please register by emailing mullersm@umich.edu. \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.

Almost singlehandedly Holly created a whole slice of today's folk and acoustic music scene: politically engaged female songwriters who have spoken out for gender equality and for the freedom to love whomever we choose\, and who have created new\, independent ways of distributing their music—well\, these numerous artists all have Holly Near to thank for blazing the way. In 1972\, Holly was one of the first women to create an independent record company\, paving the way for women like Ani DiFranco and others.

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.

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:Conference / Symposium:Reclaiming Diasporicity: Emergent Subjectivities in Sikh\, Punjabi and South Asian Contexts
DESCRIPTION:This workshop brings scholars of Sikh and South Asian studies from across the disciplines to explore new ways of reimagining single 'diasporicity' and further expand the conceptual toolbox with which to refine and redeploy the notion of diaspora beyond its function as a sociological descriptor.\n\nThe purpose of the conference is to reconsider our understanding of the \"diasporic\"as emergent subjectivity\, or as articulating a form of life with the impulse and capacity to create alternative modes of becoming and being through lived experiences\, rather than merely being subject to the kind of binaries that mark conventional notions of diaspora.\n\nFood and refreshments will be provided.

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: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: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: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

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: The Limitations of Labels: Beyond Borders and Categories
DESCRIPTION:This program is free and open to the public\, but space is limited. Please visit our website to register.\n\nThrough labels\, museums identify\, classify\, and make sense of artworks on display. Yet such information is rarely uncomplicated: many of the ways we classify the historical arts of Africa are in fact remnants of colonization\, when European powers carved up the continent into sharply divided groups and nations\, failing to recognize moments of interaction\, encounter\, and exchange. The exhibition \"Beyond Borders: Global Africa\" brings together artworks that challenge such borders\, ranging from historical objects from UMMA's collection\, to contemporary artworks by Omar Victor Diop\, Nandipha Mntambo and Kudzanai Chiurai. Join Laura De Becker\, exhibition curator and UMMA's Helmut and Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, in a conversation exploring how conceptual and geographic borders continue to inform - and limit - the way we collect\, research\, and display the arts of Africa.\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:Performance:58th University of Michigan Organ Conference: Hymn Festival
DESCRIPTION:Featuring guest artists Dr. Scott Hyslop & Rev. Kendra Mohn\n\nEvents of recent history have clearly demonstrated to us how little we have progressed in the areas of social justice - justice for women\, justice For sexual orientation\, justice for race and creed are to name but a few of these areas which seem to populate newspaper headlines\, television news feeds and social media. The church triumphant cannot remain mute in the face of these societal ills and issues\, but must stand strong and with a clear voice proclaim justice for all - justice for all creation.

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.

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: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.

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:David Cope: Player of Invisible Keys
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the work of Michigan poet David Cope\, once described by Allen Ginsberg as one of the \"leading lights of the next generation.\" This exhibit draws on drafts\, proofs\, and other documents from Cope's archive to offer a glimpse into his poetic and editorial process.\n\nWorking most often in the Objectivist tradition of Charles Reznikoff\, Carl Rakosi\, and George Oppen\, David Cope has a particular gift for descriptive detail and for juxtaposing the the intimacy of daily life with commentary on the arc of current events and the particularity of personal relationships with the universality of human experience. He received the Pushcart Prize for “The Crash” in 1977 and an award in literature from the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters for On The Bridge (1986). Additionally\, for more than forty years\, Cope has edited and published a small press literary magazine\, The Big Scream\, providing a venue for more than 200 poets\, including both big names names and younger\, lesser-known poets. Earlier this year\, Ghost Pony Press released Cope’s eighth poetry collection: The Invisible Keys: New and Selected Poems.\n\nOn view during Special Collections Research Center hours: Monday-Friday\, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public. Refreshments provided.\n\nJoin the conversation: #policytalks\n\nThis event will be live webstreamed. Check back  just before the event for viewing information at this link: https://fordschool.umich.edu/events/2018/barry-rabe-pricing-carbon-booktalk\n\nAbout the book:\nA political science analysis of the feasibility and sustainability of carbon pricing\, drawing from North American\, European\, and Asian case studies.\n\nClimate change\, economists generally agree\, is best addressed by putting a price on the carbon content of fossil fuels—by taxing carbon\, by cap-and-trade systems\, or other methods. But what about the politics of carbon pricing? Do political realities render carbon pricing impracticable? In this book\, Barry Rabe offers the first major political science analysis of the feasibility and sustainability of carbon pricing\, drawing upon a series of real-world attempts to price carbon over the last two decades in North America\, Europe\, and Asia.\n\nRabe asks whether these policies have proven politically viable and\, if adopted\, whether they survive political shifts and managerial challenges over time. The entire policy life cycle is examined\, from adoption through advanced implementation\, on a range of pricing policies including not only carbon taxes and cap-and-trade but also such alternative methods as taxing fossil fuel extraction. These case studies\, Rabe argues\, show that despite the considerable political difficulties\, carbon pricing can be both feasible and durable.\n\nAbout the author:\nBarry Rabe is the J. Ira and Nicki Harris Family Professor of Public Policy and the director of the Center for Local\, State\, and Urban Policy (CLOSUP) at the Ford School. He is also the Arthur Thurnau Professor of Environmental Policy and holds courtesy appointments in the Program in the Environment\, the Department of Political Science\, and the School for Environment and Sustainability. Barry was recently a Public Policy Scholar at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars and continues to serve as a non-resident senior fellow at the Brookings Institution. His research examines climate and energy politics and his newest book\, Can We Price Carbon? (MIT Press) was released in spring 2018. He has received four awards for his research from the American Political Science Association\, including the 2017 Martha Derthick Award for long-standing impact in the fields of federalism and intergovernmental relations. Barry co-chaired the Assumable Waters Committee of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency from 2015-2017 and has served on recent National Academy of Public Administration panels examining the Departments of Commerce and Interior as well as the Oklahoma Corporation Commission. \n\nFor more information contact closup@umich.edu or call 734-647-4091.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral & Experimental Economics (SBEE): The Illusion of Multitasking and Its Positive Effect on Performance
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nWith technological advancements\, the desire\, ability\, and often necessity to multitask are pervasive. Although multitasking refers to the simultaneous execution of multiple tasks\, most activities that require active attention cannot actually be done simultaneously. Therefore\, whether a certain activity is considered multitasking is often a matter of perception.\n\nThe current paper demonstrates the malleability of what people perceive as multitasking\, showing that the same activity may or may not be construed as multitasking. Importantly\, although engaging in multiple tasks may diminish performance\, we find that\, holding the activity constant\, the mere perception of multitasking in fact improves performance.\n\nAcross 32 studies (30 of which with performance-based incentives)\, totaling 8\,242 participants\, we find that those who perceived an activity as multitasking were more engaged\, and consequently outperformed those who perceived that same activity as single-tasking.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CMENAS Colloquium Series. Language Issues: Ancient and Modern
DESCRIPTION:The 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: \nPeople sure love to talk and write\, ancients and moderns alike. But how can we know what people four thousand years ago were trying to do when they used language? We will look at various language questions raised by ancient Middle Eastern sources and discuss how modern linguistic\, anthropological\, and historical methodologies can bridge thousand-year gaps\, so that we can communicate with women and men from long ago. And\, just as importantly\, how do we explain these methodologies to non-expert readers—how do you write a book about one topic\, while simultaneously taking your readers into other fields that require different modes of thinking and evaluation? How do you address one audience while speaking the language of a different one? \n\nSpeaker Bio: \nJay Crisostomo is an Assyriologist\, researching language and social and intellectual histories of the ancient Middle East. His book Translation as Scholarship: Language\, Writing\, and Bilingual Education in Ancient Babylonia will be published in early 2019. He is currently working on the linguistic and social history of the Sumerian language\, one of the world’s earliest and most important recorded languages. \n\n---\nThe following text will be included on all II events unless  you indicate otherwise:If 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.

However\, instead of allene activation\, a pendant ester was transesterified and etherified\, which led to our development of a gold-catalyzed\, microwave protocol to activate alcohols to form ethers and amines via an intermolecular\, SN1-type reaction. Ultimately\, in lieu of a metal-catalyzed version\, we have developed a Bronsted acid-catalyzed allenoate Claisen that affords the corresponding products in high yields and enantioselectivities. Lessons learned from these studies have led to the serendipitous discovery of a silver-catalyzed\, N-formylation reaction and have informed our development of an anti-Markovnikov hydroamination reaction.                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nScott Denmark(University of Illinois) \, Noah Burns(Stanford University) \, Anna Wenzel(Claremont McKenna College)

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Travel and Philosophy
DESCRIPTION:“…all tourists are dear to Hermes\, the god of travel\, who is patron also of amiable curiosity and freedom of mind.” George Santayana\, The Philosophy of Travel. There is an intimate relationship between philosophy and travel: both challenge our everyday assumptions and both raise important ethical questions. \n\nThis course will explore those connections. Some of the questions we will discuss include: Is there a moral value to travel? What are the moral virtues or even obligations of the “good traveler”? Should we “do as the Romans do” even if they act immorally (e.g.\, disrespect women)? Do we have a moral obligation to represent our country when we travel abroad? Can we truly understand another culture and should we try? When does travel become voyeurism? Does our quest for “authentic” travel destroy the very authenticity of the places we visit? If we are concerned about impoverished areas\, should we use our money to help them rather than visit them? \n\nInstructor Elias Baumgarten just retired from teaching philosophy for 46 years at UM-Dearborn and has traveled to over 70 countries. This study group for those 50 and over will meet on Mondays\, 1-3\, from October 1 through October 29.

We’ll watch complete films based on books by Tony Hillerman\, Donna Leon\, Louise Penny\, Henning Mankell\, Ann Cleeves\, and Jean-Pierre Alaux and Noel Balen. (Includes non-English language films with subtitles.) \n\nInstructor George Ferrell is a mystery fan who has led previous study groups looking at the actors who have portrayed Agatha Christie’s Miss Marple and Hercule Poirot.  This study group for those 50 and over will meet on Mondays\, 1:30-4:30\, from October 1 through November 12 (No class on October 8).  For transportation and parking options\, call the OLLI office at (734) 998-9351.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Sexual Harassment in Engineering
DESCRIPTION:The National Academies of Sciences\, Engineering\, and Medicine recently published a report on the impact of sexual harassment on the career advancement of women in academic scientific\, technical\, and medical fields. The report identifies key findings on the causes and impacts of sexual harassment in academia and makes recommendations to address and prevent it.\n\nThis event will include a summary of the report\, discussion from the report’s co-authors\, commentary from disciplinary experts\, and Q&A with the audience. A reception will follow. \n\nWelcome by Alec D. Gallimore\, Robert J. Vlasic Dean of Engineering\, Richard F. and Eleanor A. Towner Professor of Engineering\, U-M\n\nPANELISTS : \n- Gilda A. Barabino\,* Daniel and Frances Berg Professor and Dean\, Grove School of Engineering\, City College of New York\n- Alec D. Gallimore\, Robert J. Vlasic Dean of Engineering\, Richard F. and Eleanor A. Towner Professor of Engineering\, U-M\n- Allison Steiner\, Professor of Atmospheric Sciences\, Department of Climate and Space Sciences and Engineering\, and the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences\, U-M\n\nREPORT OVERVIEW & PANEL MODERATION:\n- Lilia Cortina\,* Associate Director of ADVANCE for the College of LSA\; Professor of Psychology\, Women’s Studies\, and Management and Organizations\, U-M\n- Anna Kirkland\,* Director of the Institute for Research on Women and Gender\; Arthur F. Thurnau Professor of Women’s Studies\, U-M\n\nPreventing and effectively addressing sexual harassment of women in colleges and universities has remained a challenge for decades. More than half of women faculty and staff report having been harassed. Student surveys of university systems show disturbingly similar rates\, with 20–50% of women students experiencing sexually harassing behavior perpetrated by faculty or staff.\n\nPersistent sexual harassment in STEM fields\, and its adverse impacts on women’s careers\, jeopardizes progress in closing the gender gap\, damages research integrity\, and results in a costly loss of talent. Academic sciences\, engineering\, and medicine share characteristics that create conditions for harassment\, but many findings of the report are not limited to STEM field settings. Other fields within academia can be similarly male-dominated\, hierarchical work and learning settings in which abusive cultures may form. Such environments can silence and limit the career opportunities for both the targets of the sexual harassment and bystanders\, causing both men and women to leave their fields.\n\nThis panel discussion will offer broad discussion of use to any member of the university community or the public interested in sexual harassment in academia\n\nSexual Harassment in the Academy Panel Discussion Series is presented by IRWG and the Office of Research\, with co-sponsorship from: ADVANCE\, The Office for Health Equity and Inclusion\, the College of Literature Sciences\, and the Arts\, and the College of Engineering\n\nQuestions or for accessibility information\, please contact irwg@umich.edu or (734) 764-9537.\n\n*National Academies committee member and report co-author

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Film Screening and Discussion of Soufra
DESCRIPTION:Soufra follows the unlikely and wildly inspirational story of intrepid social entrepreneur\, Mariam Shaar – a generational refugee who has spent her entire life in the Burj El Barajneh refugee camp just south of Beirut\, Lebanon. The film follows Mariam as she sets out against all odds to change her fate by launching a successful catering company\, “Soufra\,” and then expand it into a food truck business with a diverse team of fellow refugee woman who now share this camp as their home. Together\, they heal the wounds of war through the unifying power of food while taking their future into their own hands through an unrelenting belief in Mariam\, and in each other. In the process\, Mariam is breaking barriers\, pulling together Syrian\, Iraqi\, Palestinian and Lebanese women to work side by side and form beautiful friendships while running this thriving business. \n    \nSoufra will shine a new and revealing light on people inside of the largest refugee crisis in human history\, but ultimately this film is about hope\, grit\, passion and the common bonds created by bringing people together around food as a bridge to overcome all barriers. Though Mariam is officially considered “stateless” she is a beacon of hope and home for thousands upon thousands of women in the most unlikely of places. Mariam and her team will be just that for thousands more once her story is told through Soufra. \n    \nThe screening of the film will be followed by a discussion and Q&A featuring Soufra director and producer\, Thomas Morgan and Quinn Konarska\, U-M International Studies alumna and production coordinator\, Rebelhouse Group\, who helped produce the film. \n    \nA reception with light appetizers and refreshments will follow the film discussion. The cookbook\, Soufra: Recipes from a Refugee Food Truck\, will also be available for purchase for $20.00 via cash or check.\n\nThis event is co-sponsored by: Program in International and Comparative Studies\, Center for Entrepreneurship\, Digital Islamic Studies Curriculum\, Donia Human Rights Center\, Global Islamic Studies Center\, Department of Film\, Television\, and Media\, Department of Middle East Studies\, and Center for Middle East and North African Studies\n    \nThomas Morgan \nDirector and Producer\, Soufra \nThomas attended college at Central Michigan University where he graduated with a Bachelors of Science in Business Administration in 1990. Morgan worked as real estate developer and investment banker for most of his career. In 2009\, after a “series of unlikely events” Morgan left the corporate world behind to become a documentary filmmaker and activist. \n    \nHis films have been labeled “Filmanthropy” as he has leveraged them to create movements and a call to action. In Storied Streets\, Morgan captures the painful reality of homelessness in America and gracefully unearths pain and personal triumphs of those living unhoused in our country. Through the film he has protested\, petitioned and pushed for laws making the violence against the homeless a hate crime\, higher wages and abolishment of laws criminalizing homelessness. \n    \nWith the 2013 documentary short film\, Waiting for Mamu\, he speaks to the power of one\, through the story of Pushpa Basnet\, who at age 21 began helping free children from the prison floors in Nepal. The award winning film has raised the money to build a permanent home\, The Butterfly Home\, in Kathmandu and assisted in supporting their education. He has added Executive Producer to his resume through his support of Silenced\, a film about US government whistleblowers\, and India’s Daughter\, an Oscar contending film about the rape and murder of a 23 year old medical student in India. \n    \nMorgan has been a keynote speaker many times on Capitol Hill and twice before the U.S. Congress. He also spoke for the PPL forum at the 2012 Democratic National Convention and at 2013 at the United Nations. His TED Talk entitled “Put On Your Underoos It’s Time To Save The World” has been seen via internet by hundreds of thousands. He has done one of the most unusual TEDx Talks from Nepal soon after the earthquake while providing relief to Pushpa Basnet and her children and was the commencement speaker at his alma mater given what has been called “One the best commencement speeches of 2015.” \n    \nQuinn Konarska\, Rebelhouse Studios\, Los Angeles\, CA \nBA International Studies - Global Environment and Heath\; minors\, Global Media Studies\, and French and Francophone Studies '13 \n    \nQuinn graduated from the University of Michigan in 2013 with a BA in International Studies focused on Global Environment and Health\, and minors in Screen Arts and Cultures\, and French and Francophone studies. While at Michigan\, she was an active member of FOKUS (Fighting Obstacles Knowing Ultimate Success) and SHEI Magazine\, and studied abroad in Aix-en-Provence\, France. In 2011\, she worked for Participant Media as a documentary development intern\, helping to fund and produce films for social change. Upon graduation\, she accepted an offer with Google in San Francisco. She worked in People Operations\, developing events and programs to engage with top tech talent while working to build a more diverse hiring pipeline. In August 2017\, Quinn left Google\, packed up her Volvo wagon\, and headed south to pursue impact media in Los Angeles. \n    \nQuinn currently works as a production and outreach coordinator for Rebelhouse Group\, a creative agency that produces films in tandem with outreach campaigns to enact social change. Their most recent documentary\, Soufra\, tells the story of a group of refugee women in Lebanon who set out to launch a successful catering company and expand it into a food truck business. Soufra was an official selection of the Berlin International Film Festival\, Cannes Positive Cinema Week\, DOC NYC\, El Gouna\, and numerous other film festivals. Quinn plans to continue pursuing writing and filmmaking as tools to make the world a better place.\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:IOE 813 Seminar: Richard Hughes
DESCRIPTION:There is wide variation in the quality of total hip and knee arthroplasty (“replacement”) implants. A major quality indicator of an implant is the percentage of patients needing a revision surgery to replace implant components. National registries in Australia\, Sweden\, Norway\, New Zealand report revision risk for individual implant models. Surgeons have used these data to choose better implants\, resulting in improved quality. National registries also forced DePuy to recall its ASR hip resurfacing device by publicly reporting the poor outcomes for that implant. The only registry in the United States publicly reporting implant performance is the Michigan Arthroplasty Registry Collaborative Quality Initiative (MARCQI). MARCQI is a state-wide collaborative of hospitals and surgeons dedicated to improving the quality of care for hip and knee replacement patients. It collects and analyzes data from over 95% of all elective total hip and knee replacement patients performed in the state of Michigan. It uses these data to compute revision risk data for implants and publicly reports the results in an annual report. This talk will explain MARCQI and its first annual report that was released in 2017. The report is a “consumer reports” of hip and knee replacement implants. Possibilities for using Bayesian network and linear programming models to improve causal inference will be presented.\n\nRichard Hughes received his Ph.D. in Industrial and Operations Engineering (IOE) at the University of Michigan in 1991. In 1998 he returned to the University of Michigan as faculty in the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery. In the interim\, he completed a post-doctoral fellowship at the Mayo Clinic and worked at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. His work today focuses on quality improvement in hip and knee arthroplasty. Along with Dr. Brian Hallstrom\, M.D.\, Dr. Hughes is Co-Director of the Michigan Arthroplasty Registry Collaborative Quality Initiative (MARCQI). MARCQI is a network of 67 hospitals across Michigan that work together to improve quality of care for hip and knee arthroplasty patients by sharing best practices. He also developed and teaches IOE 413 Optimization Modeling in Health Care. \n\nThe seminar series “Providing Better Healthcare through Systems Engineering” is presented by the U-M Center for Healthcare Engineering and Patient Safety (CHEPS):  Our mission is to improve the safety and quality of healthcare delivery through a multi-disciplinary\, systems-engineering approach.\nFor additional information and to be added to the weekly e-mail for the series\, \nplease contact genehkim@umich.edu

SUMMARY:Performance:Carl Broemel of My Morning Jacket with Steelism
DESCRIPTION:Carl Broemel has appeared on Rolling Stone's list of 20 New Guitar Gods\, but that doesn't cover his divine presence. A linchpin of the phenomenally successful Louisville neo-psychedelic rock band My Morning Jacket\, he has released three solo albums\, including the new \"Wished Out.\" Solo\, he plays acoustic instruments and takes an introspective approach. \"It takes a lot of time to know your mind\,\" Carl says and that Zen-like statement informs his intimate musings on life\, reflecting on things as they are and making no judgment on how they should be. The music of Carl Broemel gives pause for thought but stops well short of preaching. It inhabits little fractured moments that invite the listener into thoughtful contemplation that in turn gives rise to epiphanies on larger themes.

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:David Cope: Player of Invisible Keys
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the work of Michigan poet David Cope\, once described by Allen Ginsberg as one of the \"leading lights of the next generation.\" This exhibit draws on drafts\, proofs\, and other documents from Cope's archive to offer a glimpse into his poetic and editorial process.\n\nWorking most often in the Objectivist tradition of Charles Reznikoff\, Carl Rakosi\, and George Oppen\, David Cope has a particular gift for descriptive detail and for juxtaposing the the intimacy of daily life with commentary on the arc of current events and the particularity of personal relationships with the universality of human experience.

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: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: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:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | Spatializing Infant Burial in Qing China
DESCRIPTION:In the nineteenth century\, foreigners in China wrote prolifically about so-called \"baby towers\"—structures that were erected outside cities to house the remains of dead children. In the minds of many foreigners\, baby towers came to embody both a peculiar rendering of Chinese death practices\, as well as a growing animus toward certain aspects of Chinese social life. This talk will attempt to contextualize these structures\, by describing and mapping the history of campaigns to bury children in the late imperial period. \n    \nJeff Snyder-Reinke is a professor of Chinese history at The College of Idaho. He earned his PhD in modern Chinese history from the University of Michigan in 2006. He conducted dissertation research at the Institute for Qing History in Beijing while on a Fulbright fellowship. Out of this research came his first book\, \"Dry Spells: State Rainmaking and Local Governance in Late Imperial China\,\" which was published by the Harvard University Asia Center in 2009. He is currently working on a book-length study of infant burial in the Qing dynasty. In what little spare time he has\, he serves as the CEO of a company that manufactures fruit tea. \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:Open Lecture | Artistic distance and the language of oppression
DESCRIPTION:Writing is an emotional process and it works when it makes us feel\, both as writers and readers. Yet a certain emotional distance is necessary when one writes poetry with the language of oppression\, especially when one has been the victim\, and offers a historical testimony. What kind of liberties can one take with the material?  What constitutes appropriate artistic utterance when one navigate the territories of poetry about the hard truths? Rescuing words from screams of pain and anger into poetic expression\, which shows the effect of oppression on the inner landscape of feeling\, is what poetry offers as an art.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Translation Symmetry in Topologically Ordered Phases
DESCRIPTION:Lattice translation is a fundamental crystalline symmetry in many condensed matter systems.In this talk we examine the interplay of translation symmetry with topological order. In the first part of the talk\, we will discuss recent advances in Lieb-Schultz-Mattis (LSM) type theorems\, which put stringent microscopic constraints on the low-energy dynamics of translation-invariant lattice systems. We will introduce a new interpretation of the classic LSM theorem and its higher-dimensional version by Oshikawa and Hastings\, as consequences of the bulk-boundary correspondence for translation symmetry-protected topological phases in higher dimensions. We then discuss various generalizations and refinements following this new perspective. In the second part\, we discuss the relation between translation symmetry transformations on quasiparticle excitations and their mobility. It turns out that certain patterns of translation symmetry fractionalization (in the presence of a global U(1) symmetry) imply that quasiparticles are immobile\, i.e. they become fractons. We show that such fractonic particles naturally appear in three dimensional U(1) spin liquids\, and develop a systematic understanding for symmetry enforced restrictions on mobility. We will also discuss possible physical realizations.\n

SUMMARY:Other:Insights into Complex Molecular Processes from Quantitative Atomistic Simulations
DESCRIPTION:                                                                                                                                                                         Molecular dynamics simulations are a powerful means to provide\nmolecular-level insights into processes ranging from gas-phase\nreaction dynamics to complex non-reactive and reactive rearrangements\nin biological systems. The utility of such simulations depends\nsensitively on the accuracy with which the intermolecular interactions\nare represented. In this seminar I will discuss recent progress in\nforce field development including multipolar force fields\, reproducing\nkernel Hilbert space techniques and machine learning and their\napplication to spectroscopy and reactive processes in the condensed\nphase. The focus is on directly linking experimental observations with\ncomputations which provides molecular level understanding of\nspectroscopic observables and time scales from state-of-the art\nexperiments. A typical example discussed will be the relationship\nbetween structure and dynamics for infrared and X-ray absorption\nspectroscopy of biomolecules or the thermodynamics of reversed phase\nliquid chromatography.                                               \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nMarkus Meuwly (University of Basel\, Switzerland)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:WCED Lecture. Cooperate or Resist? State-Society Relations and Authoritarianism in Russia and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:This talk will outline a theory of state-society relations in weak and strong states and connect it to two types of authoritarianism. It suggests that in countries where the state serves as the primary collective identity\, people tend to cooperate with state representatives and make it easy for the ruler to build efficient centralized state structures while failing to create institutions of accountability and prevent the abuse of power. In the countries where the primary collective identities are non-state ones\, people tend to resist state initiatives and only agree to short-term deals which creates a fruitful ground for clientelism and hinders building state capacity. At the same time\, these societies are better equipped to build institutions of accountability and prevent a large-scale abuse of state power. Examples of grassroots-level state and civil society organizations from four Russian regions (Kemerovo region\, Rostov region\, the Republic of Tatarstan\, and the Republic of Altai) will illustrate the different patterns of state-society relationships. The talk will also discuss several implications of the proposed theory for the study of political regimes. \n    \nNatalia Forrat is a 2018-20 WCED postdoctoral fellow. She received her PhD from Northwestern University in 2017. Before coming to Michigan\, she was a predoctoral fellow at the Center for Democracy\, Development\, and the Rule of Law at Stanford University and a postdoctoral fellow at the Kellogg Institute for International Studies at the University of Notre Dame. Her research has appeared in Post-Soviet Affairs and Comparative Politics along with a number of Russian-language venues. At Michigan\, Natalia Forrat will be working on her book manuscript on the relationship between state-society relationships and authoritarianism. \n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to weisercenter@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

SUMMARY:Performance:The Revelers
DESCRIPTION:\"If you've ever been nagged by the feeling that all Cajun and zydeco music was starting to sound a bit too much like the same old thing\,\" writes the UK's Songlines\, \"The Revelers will toss that notion back on your ears.\" This Louisiana band has been called an Eastern U.S. counterpart to Los Lobos\, and they punch up Cajun and swamp rock classics with a dose of contemporary rock and R&B. The Revelers are a sextet of veteran musicians from Cajun country and beyond who combine crack musicianship with sheer infectious joy in playing together. And if you're hanging on to the last vestiges of summer\, well\, we've got a jolt of warmth for you\, straight from Lafayette\, Louisiana. This band contains several former members of The Pine Leaf Boys and of The Red Stick Ramblers\, who did some legendary Michigan shows back in the day.

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:David Cope: Player of Invisible Keys
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the work of Michigan poet David Cope\, once described by Allen Ginsberg as one of the \"leading lights of the next generation.\" This exhibit draws on drafts\, proofs\, and other documents from Cope's archive to offer a glimpse into his poetic and editorial process.\n\nWorking most often in the Objectivist tradition of Charles Reznikoff\, Carl Rakosi\, and George Oppen\, David Cope has a particular gift for descriptive detail and for juxtaposing the the intimacy of daily life with commentary on the arc of current events and the particularity of personal relationships with the universality of human experience.

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:“I took myself for a walk for a while:” Children Making Meaning Through Story
DESCRIPTION:Fairy tales\, fables\, picture books and stories about real life: adults use all kinds of narrative to teach children important lessons. But what is it the children hear when they listen to all those words?\n\nIn this interactive workshop we will make our way through an alphabet of stories told by children. As we explore the meaning-making they do through story\, we will strengthen our own creative and critical thinking skills.\n\n For 20 years\, Instructor Resa Matlock has been collecting\, connecting and nurturing children’s stories\, using the work of Vivian Paley\, kindergarten teacher and MacArthur “genius\,” as a guide.  This study group for those 50 and over will meet Wednesdays\, 11-1\, from October 3 – November 21.

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:Lecture / Discussion:China’s Pompeii: Julu\, a Northern Song Ceramic Legacy
DESCRIPTION:According to historical records\, in 1108 A.D. the region of Julu Xian and surrounding areas in southern Hebei Province were inundated when the Yellow River burst its banks. Like Pompeii and Herculaneum in Europe\, buried in 79 A.D. by volcanic ash after the eruption of Mount Vesuvius\, the story of daily life in this ordinary Song marketplace was instantaneously preserved in the silt of the Yellow River for more than 800 years. Dr. Margaret Carney will discuss Cizhou ware ceramics discovered in the Song dynasty Julu marketplace\, offering a window into the food\, dining\, and daily life of the Northern Song. \n\nMargaret Carney is a ceramic historian with PhD and Master’s degrees in Asian art history\, and a BA in anthropology/archaeology.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Brown Bag Seminar | Detecting Dark Matter from Supernovae
DESCRIPTION:The central region of Supernovae are one of the hottest and densest regions in the Universe. Due to the high temperatures\, particles with sub-GeV masses can be copiously produced if they have non-negligible couplings to the Standard Model. If dark matter has sub-GeV mass it will be produced in the hot Supernovae core and it will have sufficiently large momenta to be detectable in direct detection experiments. In this talk I discuss the sensitivity of current and future Xenon based direct detection experiments to a simplified model of dark matter which interacts with the Standard Model via the dark photon portal.

DESCRIPTION:While the laws of quantum mechanics have remained unchanged and have passed all tests for the last eighty-five years\, new discoveries about the exotic states that they allow\, “entanglement”\, and ideas from quantum information theory\, have greatly changed our perspective\, and some believe that a “second quantum revolution” is currently underway. The discovery of unexpected “topological states of matter”\, and their possible use for “topologically-protected quantum information processing” is one of the important themes of these developments\, and will be described.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Lost in Translation: The Architecture and/of Chinese Edition
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wondered how architecture sounds in Chinese? Or questioned if the language of architecture would sound any more esoteric if it were in Chinese? Does linguistic difference matter? What is lost and what is gained when designspeak traverses the Chinese-English divide? How does the medium of design discourse affect its content? Is graphic communication the great equalizer? Is architecture sinicizable? Do you doubt that these are answerable questions? Find out on October 3rd\, 5–7pm\, at the Taubman College Commons.\n\nIn 1922\, philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein declared that “the limits of my language mean the limits of my world.\" With the globally-connected community at the University of Michigan in mind\, we invite you to an exploration of the cross-cultural academic expressive production that accompanies thinking and writing from a non-English background. Taking the University of Michigan as a case study\, we hope to engage questions of scholarship and public expression incubated in the globalized environment that is the contemporary American university. Rather than focusing on the mechanics of English as a Second Language or as a lingua franca\, we seek a discussion around scholarly expression in a multicultural\, globalized academia.\n\nPanelists:\nFU Liangyu\, Communications & Media Studies\nWANG Jieqiong\, Architecture & Urban Studies\nWilliam THOMSON\, Anthropology & Architecture\nZHANG Fang\, Fine Arts\, Design\, & Economics\n\nHors d'oeuvres to be served.\nAll are welcome!\nNo registration is required but please RSVP so we can provide enough food for everyone.\n\nThis event is organized by GRIN with generous support from Rackham and in partnership with Taubman College DEI.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Lost in Translation: The Architecture and/of Chinese Edition
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wondered how architecture sounds in Chinese? Or questioned if the language of architecture would sound any more escoteric if it were in Chinese? Does linguistic difference matter? What is lost and what is gained when designspeak traverses the Chinese-English divide? How does the medium of design discourse affect its content? Is graphic communication the great equalizer? Is architecture sinicizable? Do you doubt that these are answerable questions? Find out on October 3rd\, 5–7pm\, at the Taubman College Commons.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Nicaragua Solidarity Caravan
DESCRIPTION:Nicaragua is currently facing the worst political crisis it has seen in decades. In April 2018\, state repression of citizens protesting social security reforms unleashed a decade of accumulated grievances against the Ortega-Murillo government.

Thousands of citizens have been injured\, hundreds have been illegally detained\, and tens of thousands have fled the country for Costa Rica or the United States. A new generation of Nicaraguan activists are leading this popular movement for justice. \n    \nA new generation of Nicaraguan activists are leading this popular movement for justice.

SUMMARY:Performance:Matt Andersen
DESCRIPTION:New Brunswick might not be the first place you would think to look for the blues\, but forget your presumptions! Matt Andersen won the Blues Foundation's International Blues Challenge in Memphis\, and his soulful voice is matched in intensity by his brittle\, captivating acoustic guitar style. Matt does what we guarantee is the greatest version of \"Ain't No Sunshine\" since the days of Bill Withers. He's opened for Little Feat\, Bo Diddley\, Randy Bachman\, and David \"Honeyboy\" Edwards in between about 250 annual headliner dates of his own all over Canada\, the U.S.\, and the UK. Matt's unique blues sound incorporates elements of rock and other roots traditions\, and pickers of any instrument are sure to learn a thing or two on the way to a great time. Tonight\, for the first time at The Ark\, Matt plays a solo show.

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:David Cope: Player of Invisible Keys
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the work of Michigan poet David Cope\, once described by Allen Ginsberg as one of the \"leading lights of the next generation.\" This exhibit draws on drafts\, proofs\, and other documents from Cope's archive to offer a glimpse into his poetic and editorial process.\n\nWorking most often in the Objectivist tradition of Charles Reznikoff\, Carl Rakosi\, and George Oppen\, David Cope has a particular gift for descriptive detail and for juxtaposing the the intimacy of daily life with commentary on the arc of current events and the particularity of personal relationships with the universality of human experience. He received the Pushcart Prize for “The Crash” in 1977 and an award in literature from the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters for On The Bridge (1986). Additionally\, for more than forty years\, Cope has edited and published a small press literary magazine\, The Big Scream\, providing a venue for more than 200 poets\, including both big names names and younger\, lesser-known poets. Earlier this year\, Ghost Pony Press released Cope’s eighth poetry collection: The Invisible Keys: New and Selected Poems.\n\nOn view during Special Collections Research Center hours: Monday-Friday\, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:“Squish and Squeeze - Nuclear mechanics in physiology and disease”
DESCRIPTION:The nucleus is the characteristic feature of eukaryotic cells and houses the genomic information of the cell. The Lammerding laboratory is combining cell and molecular biology approaches with tissue engineering and microfabrication techniques\, live-cell microscopy\, and in vivo models to investigate the interplay between nuclear structure\, mechanics\, and function. In particular\, the research is addressing how physical forces acting on the nucleus\, for example\, in contracting muscle cells or during migration of cells through tight interstitial spaces\, can challenge the integrity of the nucleus\, alter its structure\, and cause genomic and transcriptional changes. These processes play important roles in cellular mechanotransduction\, i.e.\, the ability of cells to convert mechanical stimuli into biochemical signals\, but can also contribute to various diseases when the nuclear structure is perturbed by mutations or altered protein expression. For example\, mutations in the nuclear envelope proteins lamin A/C are responsible for a broad spectrum of diseases (laminopathies)\, including Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD) and dilated cardiomyopathy. The fact that most mutations result in highly tissue-specific disease phenotypes primarily affecting skeletal and cardiac muscles\, in spite of the near ubiquitous expression of lamins A/C\, suggest that lamin mutations may render cells more sensitive to mechanical stress\, which then causes progressive cell failure in mechanically stressed tissues. I will discuss our recent findings that highlight the importance of lamins A/C in mediating nuclear stability and mechanotransduction in mechanically stressed cells and tissues. At the same time\, increased nuclear deformability\, caused for example by reduced levels of lamins A/C\, can promote cell migration through tight spaces with cross-sections smaller than the nuclear diameter\, where the large size and rigidity of the nucleus can constitute a rate-limiting factor. I will present recent findings that demonstrate the importance of nuclear mechanics during cell migration in confined environments in vitro and in vivo\, as well as the functional consequences of cells having to squeeze their large nuclei through tight interstitial spaces and small pores in the extracellular matrix network\, with a particular focus on breast cancer.\n\nJan Lammerding\, Ph.D.\, is an Associate Professor  in the Meinig School of Biomedical Engineering and the Weill Institute for Cell and Molecular Biology & Director of Graduate Studies at Cornell University.

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: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: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:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Thursday Noon Lecture Series | Social and Political Lives of Japanese Cherry Blossoms
DESCRIPTION:Part of the Toyota Visiting Professor 30th Anniversary Special Lecture Series.\n\nCherry blossoms have been and remained a/the most cherished flowers for the Japanese. Using power-point images\, the talk will present many\, often contradictory\, meanings and ethos assigned to the flower – from life and love to death – while becoming a symbol of various social groups\, and\, ultimately\, the Japanese as a whole. Highlighted is its abuses during Japan’s military period\, culminating in its use for the tokkōtai operation towards the end of World War II. The talk will conclude by deliberating the opacity in symbolic communication and its impact on the people.\n\nEmiko Ohnuki-Tierney (Ohnuki Emiko)\, William F. Vilas Research Professor is native of Japan and specializes in historical and interpretive anthropology. Beginning with the Detroit Chinese and the Sakhalin Ainu\, resettled in Hokkaido\, her work on the Japanese began with their health care\, followed by symbols of the Japanese collective self\, including rice\, monkey and cherry blossoms. Her work is published both in English (10) and Japanese (5)\, and have been translated into 10 different languages.\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:Planning under Uncertainty: Theory and Practice
DESCRIPTION:Jonathan P. How\nRichard C. Maclaurin Professor of Aeronautics and Astronautics \nMassachusetts Institute of Technology\n\nThis talk will describe recent progress on planning\, learning\, and control of autonomous systems operating in dynamic environments\, with an emphasis on addressing the planning challenges faced on various timescales.  For example\, autonomous robotic agents need to plan/execute safe paths and avoid imminent collisions given noisy sensory information (short timescale)\, interact with other dynamic agents whose intents are typically not known (medium timescale)\, and perform complex cooperative tasks given imperfect models and knowledge of the environment (long timescale). These planning tasks are often constrained to be done using onboard computation and perception\, which typically adds significant complexity to the system. The talk will highlight several recently developed solutions to these challenges that have been implemented to robustly plan paths and demonstrate high-speed agile flight of a quadrotor in unknown\, cluttered environments\; autonomous navigation of ground vehicles in complex indoor environments alongside non-communicating agents\; near-optimal resource-aware communication planning for distributed loop closure detection in collaborative simultaneous localization and mapping under budgeted communication\; and an augmented reality testbed for testing\, evaluation and verification of complex robotic systems using controlled indoor simulations of outdoor environments.\n\nAbout the speaker...\n\nJonathan P. How\, the Richard C. Maclaurin Professor of Aeronautics and Astronautics\, was honored for contributions to guidance and control of air and space vehicles.  He currently serves as the head of the Information sector within the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics\, is the Director of the Ford-MIT Alliance\, and was a member of the USAF Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) from 2014-2017.  His research focuses on planning and learning under uncertainty\, and he was the control lead for the MIT DARPA Urban Challenge team.  \n\nHe is the editor-in-chief of the IEEE Control Systems Magazine\, associate editor for the AIAA Journal of Aerospace Information Systems\, and associate editor for the IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks and Learning Systems. His work has been recognized with multiple awards\, including the Institute of Navigation Burka Award\, the IFAC Automatica award for best applications paper\, the AeroLion Technologies Outstanding Paper Award for the Journal Unmanned Systems\, the IEEE Control Systems Society Video Clip Contest\, and numerous AIAA Best Paper in Conference Awards. He was awarded the Air Force Commander's Public Service Award (2017) for his contributions to the SAB. He is both an IEEE Fellow and an AIAA Fellow.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Nicaragua Solidarity Caravan
DESCRIPTION:Nicaragua is currently facing the worst political crisis it has seen in decades. In April 2018\, state repression of citizens protesting social security reforms unleashed a decade of accumulated grievances against the Ortega-Murillo government. Citizens from across all sectors of Nicaraguan society took to the streets to protest state violence and authoritarianism. In response\, the state has killed as many as five hundred people. Thousands of citizens have been injured\, hundreds have been illegally detained\, and tens of thousands have fled the country for Costa Rica or the United States. A new generation of Nicaraguan activists are leading this popular movement for justice. \n    \nA new generation of Nicaraguan activists are leading this popular movement for justice. Join us for a conversation with three of these activists\, representing the Platform for Social Movements and Civil Society Organizations\, on the historical origins of the crisis\, movement actors and demands\, and the current state of human rights in Nicaragua. \n\nThe University of Michigan and Michigan State University have collaborated to bring the caravan to Southeast Michigan. The caravan will participate in three public roundtable discussions.\n\nWednesday\, October 3\, 2018 // 7:30-9:00 pm\nThe Episcopal Church of the Incarnation\, 3257 Lohr Rd.

DESCRIPTION:Associate Professor\, Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering\, New York University\n\nABSTRACT\n\"Challenging Nanostructured Materials for Advanced Energy Devices\"\n\nOne of the key challenges facing the widespread use and commercialization of promising energy devices (i.e. fuel cells\, batteries\, organic solar cells etc.) is the high cost of the electrocatalytic and electrolyte materials and inefficiencies in their assembly and utilization.  In this talk\, I will present three examples of how we are designing nanomaterials such as graphene-based carbons\, MXenes\, and bulk metallic glass (BMG) alloys that can be incorporated into new architectures for high performance nanostructured-enabled energy devices.\n \n1) Transparent Electronics. We have developed a fully automated Spin Spray Layer by Layer assembly system with sub-second deposition cycle times allowing nano-level control over film growth with a demonstration of transparent (invisible) battery electrodes. Techniques for developing freestanding multifunctional single-walled nanotube (SWNT) and MXene composite thin films for solar cell transparent conductive electrodes will also be described.\n\n2) Electrocatalysts. I will describe a new class of materials\, Pt58Cu15Ni5P22 bulk metallic glass that can circumvent Pt-based anode poisoning and agglomeration/dissolution typically associated with supported catalysts during long-term operation in fuel cells. By using subtractive (dealloying) and additive (galvanic replacement) techniques we can push these materials into new directions beyond their glass formability. These amorphous metal alloys can serve as an interesting platform for next-generation catalysts and devices such as the first all bulk metallic glass micro fuel cell.\n\n3) New Device Architectures. Our development of a mesoporous catalytic membrane for Li-O2 batteries recently led us to the recent development of vampire batteries that use heme molecules as a redox mediator. We will also describe our latest efforts on Förster resonance energy (FRET) based solar cells with a single junction power conversion efficiency >10% for a polymer based solar cell as well as Perovskite solar cell efforts.\n\nBIO\n\nProfessor André D. Taylor is an associate professor and leads the Transformative Materials and Devices Group in the Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering Department at New York University. He specializes in the synthesis and arrangement of nanomaterials in devices such as fuel cells\, lithium ion batteries\, and solar cells. \n\nHe received all three degrees in chemical engineering with a BS from the Missouri University of Science and Technology\, an MS from Georgia Institute of Technology\, and a PhD from the University of Michigan. While in graduate school Dr. Taylor was a Sloan Fellow\, NSF-Rackham Merit Fellow\, Eastman Kodak Fellow\, and GEM (MS and PhD) Fellow. \n\nHe worked as a research engineer for DuPont’s Engineering Polymers division and Intellectual Asset Management Group and was a research faculty scientist in the chemical engineering department at the University of Michigan. Dr. Taylor has developed CMOS compatible micro fuel cells (with integrated heaters and temperature sensors) and a method of patterning ITO substrates for both flat and non-planar surfaces for optoelectronic devices (Artificial Eye Project). \n\nDr. Taylor has given several invited lectures at the local\, national\, and international levels. He has several patents and archival publications related to his research. He is an NSF CAREER award recipient and a Presidential Early Career Award in Science and Engineering (PECASE) recipient. In 2015\, Dr. Taylor was a Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Visiting Associate Professor at MIT. See website above for publication links and recent press releases from his lab.

SUMMARY:Presentation:EHAP Speaker Series
DESCRIPTION:The Dark Side of Light at Night: Biological Effects of Disrupted Circadian Rhythms\n\n\nLife on Earth has evolved during the past several billion years under relatively bright days and relatively dark night conditions. Biological functions are exquisitely timed for optimal functioning\; some processes occur at night and others during the day. The widespread adoption of electric lights during the past century exposed animals\, including humans\, to significant light at night for the first time in their evolutionary history. Endogenous circadian clocks depend on light to synchronize with the external day-night cycles. Thus\, light at night can derange temporal adaptations. Indeed\, disruption of naturally evolved responses to light-dark cycles results in several physiological and behavioral changes with potentially serious implications for fitness.  The reasons for turning off your devices at night will be discussed.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Development Seminar: Production bottleneck effects and role of market power: Evidence from India's dereservation reform
DESCRIPTION:PhD Talk\n\nIn this paper\, I investigate how aggregate gains from reducing distortions within a market depend on the extent of market power in the production network. Improving a production bottleneck propagates to upstream suppliers as a demand shock\, and to downstream customers as an input cost shock. I analyze the heterogeneous response of firms in these vertically linked markets using the elimination of firm–size restrictions products in India during the 2000s combined with a rich firm–level data set. On impact of the reform\, I find an increase in productivity\, primarily driven by reallocation of inputs to larger and more productive firms that were previously constrained by the size restrictions. Similarly\, more productive upstream and downstream firms expand output despite evidence of increasing markups. These results are consistent with models where demand elasticity decreases with firm performance\, and highlight the importance of accounting for markup variation when studying misallocation. Finally\, I find allocative efficiency gains within vertically linked markets that are attenuated in more concentrated markets\, where larger firms increase markups more than quantity. These results underline the moderating effects of imperfect competition within vertical linkages when correcting for distortions in one sector.\n\nVybhavi Balasundharam is a Ph.D. candidate in Economics at the University of Michigan with research interests in Development Economics and International Economics.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar: Bridges\, rafts\, and phenotypic diversification in the Gulf of Guinea archipelago
DESCRIPTION:Island faunas have inspired evolutionary biologists for centuries and I am especially captivated by the enigmatic history of amphibians on islands. Over the last ten years I have been studying amphibian diversification in the Gulf of Guinea archipelago\, a chain of islands off the coast of Central Africa that is composed of one land-bridge island (Bioko) and three oceanic islands (Príncipe\, São Tomé\, and Annobón). In this talk I integrate genomic\, behavioral\, ecological and morphological data to investigate the colonization history and diversification of the archipelago’s amphibian fauna.\n\nView YouTube video of seminar: https://youtu.be/9DrbwR8EEsQ

DESCRIPTION:                                                                        The chemical interactions that proceed indoors have not been as well studied as those that occur in outdoor environments.  Rather\, indoors\, focus has primarily been given to emissions from building materials and effects of ventilation.  However\, it is known that oxidative and partitioning processes occur on most indoor surfaces that affect the chemical exposure that we all experience. Indeed\, the concentrations of many chemical species are higher indoors than outdoors.  This talk will present examples of indoor oxidative processes that arise via ozone\, which is introduced by intake of outdoor air\, and via cleaning agents\, such as chlorine bleach.  Highly reactive surfaces indoors include human skin oils and cooking emissions\, and particular attention will be given to the ozonolysis products formed from Criegee intermediates. The nature of non-reactive partitioning in indoor species will also be examined. In particular\, new field measurements indicate that molecules that are normally viewed as being highly reactive\, such as nitrous acid\, are sorbed to indoor surfaces in significant amounts.                                                 \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nJonathan Abbatt (University of Toronto)

SUMMARY:Well-being:FREE 4-Session Mindfulness Class
DESCRIPTION:*Registration Closed. Contact hkat@umich.edu for future 4-week sessions.*\n\nThursdays from 4:00 - 5:30pm (10/4\, 10/11\, 10/18\, 10/25)\n@ Angel Hall G243 (Ground Floor)\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:Workshop / Seminar:Law & Economics: Network Effects in Corporate Governance
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nMost public companies incorporate in Delaware. Is this because they prefer its legal system or are they simply following a trend? Using the incorporation histories of over 22\,000 public companies from 1930 to 2010\, I show that firms are more influenced by changes in each other's decisions than by changes in the law. The analysis exploits an unexpected legal shock that increased Delaware's long run share from 30 to 74 percent. I attribute most of this change to a cascading effect in which the decisions of past firms successively influence future cohorts. Delaware firms also enjoyed abnormal returns precisely during those years in which the Delaware network grew most. I conclude that network effects dominate secular trends in corporate governance.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Emory Douglas: Designing Justice - Penny Stamps Speaker Series Presentation
DESCRIPTION:Emory Douglas worked as the resident Revolutionary Artist and Minister of Culture for the Black Panther Party in the San Francisco Bay Area from 1967 through the 1980s. In addition to creating iconic posters and postcards\, a key part of Douglas’ responsibilities in this role included art direction\, design\, and illustration for the organization’s newspaper\, The Black Panther. During his tenure\, Douglas created powerful images to depict the reality of racial injustice in America and to promote the party’s ideologies. His distinctive style established the “militant-chic” style decades before the aesthetic became popularized and sought to flip the cultural paradigm from one of African American victimhood to one of powerful outrage.\n\nDouglas’ work can be explored in full in the comprehensive monograph Black Panther: The Revolutionary Art of Emory Douglas (Rizzoli\, 2007). His work has also received retrospective exhibitions at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles and the New Museum in New York. In his retirement\, Douglas continues to exhibit and make work on topics such as crime and the prison industrial complex. His work is included in the exhibition Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire\, on view at Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.) through November 18.  There will be a Q&A and post-talk reception at Stamps Gallery immediately following this event.\n\nPresented in partnership with the Stamps Gallery\, with support from Design Core Detroit.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AIA Lecture | Bones and Borscht: How Neolithic Human Remains from Ukraine Are Enabling the Reconstruction of European Population History and Our Understanding of Ancient Warfare
DESCRIPTION:Recent developments in ancient DNA research have allowed archaeologists to reconstruct human migrations in ways that are reshaping our understanding of the past. One of the most remarkable aspects of this new research has been the recognition of two large-scale migrations in European prehistory. The first included the migration of Neolithic farmers into Europe from the Near East\, while the second involved the movement of nomadic pastoralists out of the Pontic-Caspian steppe at the close of the Neolithic and beginning of the early Bronze Age. Many archaeologists and paleogeneticists have gone so far as to suggest this massive movement of people from the steppe was the mechanism that spread Indo-European languages and established modern European genetic signatures. However\, these events remain imperfectly understood. For example\, to what extent did expanding Neolithic farmers interbreed with existing Mesolithic hunter-gatherers? How did Neolithic farmers who neighbored the steppe populations interact with this important group? Is there any evidence for intergroup conflict associated with these massive population movements? These questions have been the focus of our research at Verteba Cave\, Ukraine\, one of the only known mortuary sites associated with the farmers of the Late Neolithic that bordered the steppe. The skeletal and genetic data we have collected from Verteba Cave are beginning to shed additional light on these extremely consequential time periods in European population history. \n\nSponsored by the Archaeological Institute of America. This event is free and open to the public.\n\nLecture at Kelsey Museum 5:30 PM\, reception to follow.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:High Performance Computing & Data Science Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Researchers can leverage high performance computing (HPC) to pose and probe unique and interesting questions. In order to answer those questions\, they need some ability to extract meaning from the data they generate. Data science has recently risen to prominence for its abilities not only to extract this meaning\, but also to turn that meaning into actionable\, data-driven predictions. Combining HPC and data science can allow a researcher to more easily ask questions and discover answers leading to even deeper questions. However\, despite these benefits\, it can be difficult for full-time researchers to learn an emerging field with no guidance while still producing research.To reduce this barrier\, the Scientific Computing Student Club (SC2) presents the HPC and Data Science Workshop Series. For eight weeks in the Fall semester\, we will meet once a week to discuss HPC and Data Science topics\, focusing on how elements of HPC and data science can reinforce research and discovery. There will be no one instructor for this workshop\; instead we will have guest speakers from SC2\, ARC-TS\, MICDE\, and even MathWorks (MATLAB). Attendance at all workshops is encouraged\, but not required. Pizza will be provided.
