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.

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: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

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Mrs. Fang 方绣英 (2017)
DESCRIPTION:Curated by Fang Zhang (2016-2017 Hughes Scholar at the Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies)\, CIUM’s annual film series “Electric Shadow” for the fall 2018 presents the most celebrated Chinese artists’ thought-provoking films. All CIUM events are free and open to the public.\n\nSynopsis: \nThe camera apathetically zooms in Mrs. Fang’s ghostly face\, her mouth held open in a rigid grimace. Having suffered from Alzheimer's for eight years\, Fang Xiuying is now bedridden and surrounded by her relatives and neighbors\, as they accompany her through her last days. “Mrs. Fang” depicts a shockingly raw and merciless portrait of Mrs. Fang’s final days. Unarguably the best work of Director Wang Bing\, “Mrs. Fang” was honored with Golden Leopard at the 2017 Locarno Festival.\n\nAbout Director Wang Bing:\nA graduate of Beijing Film Academy\, Wang Bing is a well​-​known ​cinematographer in China\, famous for his talent of chronicling the everyday lives of peasants\, laborers\, and drifters. ​Most of his protagonists are marginalized\, abandoned\, and desperate​ people​\, through which Wang tries to document the raw\, brutal\, but earnest humanism through his camera lens. His most well-known films are The Ditch (2010)\, Three Sisters (2012)\, and West of the Tracks (2002).

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.

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

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

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

SUMMARY:Exhibition: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:Other:Clinical Science Brown Bag:  The long reach of early parenting: a neurogenetics approach to the development of antisocial behavior
DESCRIPTION:Antisocial behaviors\, such as aggression and rule breaking\, cause incredible costs to society and alter the trajectory of many young lives. In this talk\, I will briefly describe work from my lab examining the role of parenting in the development of antisocial behavior.  First\, I will describe a series of studies we have done to examine the development of early callous-unemotional behaviors\, a developmental risk factor for psychopathy.  These studies show that callous-unemotional behaviors can be identified in the preschool period and that parenting interacts with genetic background to predict the development of callous-unemotional behaviors. Second\, I will discuss our work linking parenting in early childhood to neural reactivity and risk for antisocial behavior in adolescence and adulthood. Throughout the talk\, I will highlight the ways in which experience and genetic background interact to affect the development of the brain and behavior.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Art Exhibit: Nancy Blum\, RC Class of '85
DESCRIPTION:RC alumna '85 Nancy Blum returns to East Quad to exhibit her drawings of flowers and to deliver the 10/19 Robertson Lecture on her public art installations. \n\nExcerpted from her artist statement:\nMy large‐scale works on paper\, rendered in ink\, colored pencil\, gouache and graphite\, portray a fantastic realm in which flowers own the space. I use a variety of 16th and 17th-century botanical images\, from Chinese plum blossoms to German botanicals\, as starting points for each drawing. Rather than alluding to an actual landscape\, I instead combine species of plants in the same drawing that would not customarily exist together in nature. Obsessive handwork creates intricate layers of visual information to be discovered over time and\, in this way\, the works become a seductive meditation for the viewer.\n\nI use botanical motifs to create images that are universally associated with growth and continuity. My deeper intent is to conjure the ‘flower’ as an active\, forceful agent\, subverting a culturally conditioned point of view that often deems the ephemeral and the organic as less powerful and of limited value. My ‘wonderland’ presents a view of life that pulses with expansive fecundity\; hopefully\, it also propels comprehension of the connectedness of all beings within the limitless energy operating throughout this world.\n\nWhen making art for public spaces\, I strive to invest these commissions with similar content\, while bringing beauty and a high level of craft to a particular environment. As I conceive and develop each piece\, I respond to the specifics of the surrounding architecture\, ecosystem\, and community in an effort to compellingly meet the needs of the site. My studio practice\, in turn\, is invigorated by opportunities to design work in relationship to an existing framework\, and the special demands and responsibilities this process entails.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral & Experimental Economics (SBEE): Medical Guidelines and Doctor Decision Making
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \n\nDoctors often face a complex set of inputs (age\, bmi\, blood pressure\, blood test results\, symptoms\, etc.) when making diagnosis and treatment decisions. In order to simplify decision making\, clinical guidelines are ubiquitous and provide evidence-based rules of thumb for doctors to follow. In this paper\, we use a dataset of blood test results for millions of patients to see how rigidly doctors adhere to medical guidelines for a variety of decisions. We discuss the implications for these results including how to create optimal guidelines and potential decision aides for doctors and patients.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CMENAS Colloquium Series. Introduction to MENAS Research Resources & Strategies
DESCRIPTION:--- \nThe 2018 CMENAS Colloquium Series theme\, “The Process of Discovery: How Scholars Write Books Today” will discuss how in popular media\, writing is fantastically presented as a process whereby inspiration—a muse— comes to the writer (or fails to).

SUMMARY:Other:Developmental Brown Bag:  Socialization of children’s emotions
DESCRIPTION:Given that emotions are omnipresent in everyone’s lives and serve invaluable functions\, it is critical for children to learn from socializers about different aspects of emotional expressions and ways to develop optimal emotion related capacities. In this talk\, I will present 3 recent studies of mine that focused on children’s emotions and the socialization of children’s emotions. First\, I will describe a study where I examined how the interaction of anger and sadness would be related to child persistence drawing on the functional theory of emotions. In the second study\, I will present my research on the intergenerational transmission of emotion regulation\, where my findings support how parents’ own emotion regulation is related to children’s regulation. Third\, I was interested in examining the cultural differences in mothers’ emotion regulation and emotion socialization across the Chinese and American cultures.  My findings highlight how social expectations are associated with differences in maternal emotion socialization patterns.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Quantitative Biology Seminar | Geometric Principles of Spatio-Temporal Dynamics of Second Messengers in Dendritic Spines
DESCRIPTION:The ability of the brain to encode and store information depends on the plastic nature of the individual synapses. The increase and decrease in synaptic strength\, mediated through the structural plasticity of the spine\, are important for learning\, memory\, and cognitive function. Dendritic spines are small structures that contain the synapse. They come in a variety of shapes (stubby\, thin\, or mushroom-shaped) and a wide range of sizes that protrude from the dendrite. These spines are the regions where the postsynaptic biochemical machinery responds to the neurotransmitters. Spines are dynamic structures\, changing in size\, shape\, and number during development and aging. While spines and synapses have inspired neuromorphic engineering\, the biophysical events underlying synaptic and structural plasticity remain poorly understood.\n\nOur current focus is on understanding the biophysical events underlying structural plasticity. I will discuss two recent efforts from my group - first\, a systems biology approach to construct a mathematical model of biochemical signaling and actin-mediated transient spine expansion in response to calcium influx caused by NMDA receptor activation and second\, a series of spatial models to study the role of spine geometry and organelle location within the spine for calcium and cyclic AMP signaling. I will conclude with some new efforts in using reconstructions from electron microscopy to inform computational domains. I will conclude with how geometry and mechanics plays an important role in our understanding of fundamental biological phenomena and some general ideas on bio-inspired engineering. \n\nBio: Padmini Rangamani is an associate professor in Mechanical Engineering at the University of California\, San Diego.

SUMMARY:Other:Dissertation Defense: Cell Type Deconvolution and Transformation of Microenvironment Microarray 			Data
DESCRIPTION:Transformations are an important aspect of data analysis. In this work we explore the impact of data transformation on the analysis of high-throughput -omics data. Specifically\, we explore two applications were data transformation plays an important role. The first application is estimating cell types using gene expression data. Here we develop dtangle\, a method that carefully considers scale transformations when estimating cell type proportion estimates. This method broadly out-performs existing deconvolution methods in a comprehensive meta-analysis. Secondly\, we explore the role of simple data transformations for the analysis of microenvironment microarray data. In this section we look at simple data transformations and how they interact with visualization\, discovery of latent effects\, and data integration. We find that simple transformations applied alone or in sequence can make salient important aspects of the data.

SUMMARY:Other:Ozone\, Carbon Dioxide\, and Unusual Kinetic Isotope Effects: From the Stratosphere to the Laboratory and Back Again
DESCRIPTION:                                                                        The discovery of unusual oxygen isotope compositions in ozone and carbon dioxide by Mauersberger and co-workers and Thiemens and co-workers in the 1980s and 1990s has been followed by the challenges of understanding the chemical physics of the non-standard kinetic isotope effects on a molecular level and how they play out on a global scale\, with the promise of providing new isotopic tracers of ozone production and transport in the stratosphere and the rates of uptake of atmospheric carbon dioxide by the biosphere. In this talk\, I will highlight laboratory experiments (including crossed molecular beam experiments on O+O2 and O+CO2 and bulk photochemistry experiments on CO2 and O2 mixtures) and new stratospheric isotope measurements on air collected by aircraft and balloon flights that provide new insight into and constraints on the chemical physics of these unusual isotope effects needed to support their growing application to solving problems in the Earth and environmental sciences across a variety of disciplines.                                                                        \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nKristie Boering (University of California Berkeley)

Attendees learn from leading positive organizational scholars and connect with our community of academics\, students\, staff\, and leaders.\n\nPositive Links sessions take place at Michigan Ross\, and are free and open to the public.\n\nAbout the talk:\nSelf-affirmations can be powerful tools to attenuate threats to the self that emerge from the stressors of organizational life. When people are given opportunities to affirm core values and relationships\, they are more responsive to otherwise difficult information. Drawing on decades of experimental and field studies\, Sherman will present research on how\, when\, and why self-affirmations can lead to more adaptive outcomes\, and the implications for organizational outcomes.\n\nAbout Sherman:\nDavid Sherman is a professor in the Department of Psychological & Brain Sciences at the University of California\, Santa Barbara. He is a social and health psychologist whose research centers on how people cope with threatening events and information. He is Editor at the Personality and Social Psychology Review and is the president of the International Society for Self and Identity. Sherman’s research has been supported by grants from the National Science Foundation.\n\nHost: \nJulia Lee\, Assistant Professor of Management and Organizations\n\nSponsors:\nThe Center for Positive Organizations thanks University of Michigan Organizational Learning\, Sanger Leadership Center\, Tauber Institute for Global Operations\, Samuel Zell & Robert H.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:STS Speaker. Unbalancing the Senses and Sciences of Moving Fascia: Practicing Research
DESCRIPTION:Inside of the norming power of \"balance\" as a concept\, lies the layering of balance as a moving-idea of ideal-movement. How \"we\" learn and incorporate the concept-practice of balancing gives shape to our lifeworld in political\, historical\, gymnastic and practical ways. Even the figuring of our \"sense\" of balance within and without \"the five senses\" is consequential for the shaping of ability and disability. Take this simple example: one hand touches another and each feels the skin\, and under the skin\, of each hand. One hand touches another and both change in skin and under the skin. The many senses—of touching\, feeling\, tactility\, thermal\, mechanical\, and kinesthetic impressions\, proprioceptive movement\, weight and balance of self and others\, affective pleasures\, pain\, distention\, tickling\, itching\, tension and tone\, anticipation and inspection—are in flux\, social and cultural\, yet trainable\, extendable\, transformable. Each nameable variable of the experience seems to matter and feedback into the experiment: pressure\, weight\, angle\, movement\, direction\, depth of feel\, intent\, relaxation\, length of time\, sensitivity\, attention. These “senses” complicate the world -- defined by Stengers with Whitehead as that which our senses testify to and raise questions about experimental ethical relations. At a more practical level among those who start thinking conceptually with training\, the effect of ideas about body and movement on the practice of moving has been critically examined as \"ideokinesis\" by Mabel Todd in her 1930s Posture Lab – in which students became taller in a semester of imaginative exercises\, since taken up into the training of dancers. Bourdieu describes this loop of habitus as: history turned into nature. Csordas describes perception itself \"in the midst of arbitrariness and indeterminacy\". Anatomy itself is also put into variation as different groups insist\, discover and practice alternate claims to body “parts” such as “fascia”. Often called connective tissue (the goop or structure between muscles\, organs\, skin\, and cells)\, but also found to be active\, intelligent\, communicative\, and a sensory organ (the “interstitium”)\; sometimes three\, sometimes many and sometimes one\, liquid\, solid and mucus\, fascia stretches between communities of biologists\, massage therapists\, anatomists and pathologists\, yoga and pilates teachers\, doctors and dancers. Palpating these balancing practices and membranes through participant observation and interviews\, experience and experiments\, this work attends to the training of sensitivity and habit across fields of research and training\, structures and sensibilities. \n\nBiosketch: Joseph Dumit is chair of Performance Studies\, and professor of Science & Technology Studies\, and of Anthropology at University of California\, Davis. His research and teaching ask how exactly we come to think\, do\, and speak the way we do about ourselves and our world\; and what are the material ways we encounter facts and things\, and take them to be relevant to our lives and our futures? He is the author of Picturing Personhood: Brain Scans & Biomedical America (Princeton 2004)\, Drugs for Life: How Pharmaceutical Companies Define Our Health (Duke 2012)\, and co-editor of Cyborgs & Citadels: Cyborg Babies and Biomedicine as Culture. His current research includes comparative anatomies and the study of fascia via movement and improvisation\, capitalism and health\, three-dimensional visualization (virtual reality) environments for science\, and game studies. He is developing a game on fracking at http://modlab.ucdavis.edu\, a book on playing with methods\, and is in the process of creating an undergraduate program in Data Studies\, which will help undergrads learn to think critically and computationally about data. http://dumit.net

DESCRIPTION:The series explores the differing approaches to the natural word by pagans and the early Christians from Paul and the Gospels to c AD 500. It brings out differing emphases in their respective writings and art and also asks what practical effects such different ways of seeing had. \n\nLecture 1: Cosmos and Landscape in Pagan and Christian Views of Creation (October 17th)\nPagan and Christian views of Creation\, man’s dominance over the beasts and the vegetal world and on modern theories of a shift from a horizontal view of the relation of the natural world and the divine to a vertical view of it\, endorsed by Christianity.\n\nLecture 2: Flowers and the Vegetal World (October 19th)\nthe understanding and symbolism of plants and flowers in Christian and pagan art\, life and thinking\,  including the idea of ‘paradise’ and  erotic and virginal perceptions of gardens\, concluding with the gardening of monks and desert Fathers in natural adversity.\n\nLecture 3: The Hierarchy of Animals (October 22nd)\nAnthropocentric views in the Christians’ scriptures\, compared with pagan thinkers’ views …and on the hierarchy and symbolism of animals\, including cats\, in pagan and Christian art and thinking and on their role in both groups’ experience \,especially those of hunters\, martyrs and Christian holy men.\n\nLecture 4: Signs and Catastrophes (October 24th)\nCompared pagan and Christian notions of  omens and signs\, prodigies and miracles and their  explanations of natural catastrophes\, including volcanic and seismic disasters\, still familiar in our world. It will conclude with Christians’ contrasting view of the End of the world and the place of perverted natural symbols in expressing it.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IOE 813 Seminar: April Maa and Adam Van Deusen
DESCRIPTION:Many patients\, including United States veterans\, face barriers to appropriate\, affordable healthcare. These barriers can be addressed by optimizing clinic locations while delivering care that effectively utilizes providers’ practice responsibilities. We present models to evaluate veterans’ eye care facility location options with consideration for overall system access and present a case study in which trained technicians perform visual disease screenings typically conducted by ophthalmologists\, as part of the VA's Technology-based Eye Care Services (TECS) program. In this seminar Dr. April Maa will review eye care in the VA\, including the initiation of the TECS program. Adam VanDeusen will present how this program's utilization can be evaluated using facility location models.\n\nApril Maa\, MD is an Associate Professor at Emory University School of Medicine in the Department of Ophthalmology\, division of comprehensive ophthalmology.  She completed her Bachelor of Science in Physiology at McGill University in Montreal\, Canada.  Upon graduation from McGill in 2000\, she then attended medical school at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston\, Texas from 2000-2004.  Subsequently\, she completed her ophthalmology residency at University of Texas Southwestern in Dallas\, Texas before moving to Atlanta in 2008.  She joined Emory and the Atlanta VA in 2008\, where she has remained as an active practicing clinician and clinical researcher.   She currently is the Clinical Director of Technology-based Eye Care Services (TECS)\, a tele-ophthalmology program\, for the Veterans Integrated Service Network (VISN) 7 Regional Telehealth Service that is based at the Atlanta VA Healthcare System.  Dr. Maa began her career in telemedicine around the year 2012 when she first began doing research at the VA on Veterans’ eye disease prevalence and piloting studies to use telemedicine to improve eye care delivery.  In 2015\, she was awarded a pilot grant from VA Office of Rural Health to pilot 3 tele-eye sites.  TECS was an enormous success\, and has rapidly grown across the country to several states including Missouri\, Omaha\, Montana\, and Illinois.  Atlanta currently serves as the national VA ORH National Program Office for TECS spread across the VA enterprise\, receiving approximately $2 million a year to continue to spread tele-ophthalmology across the country.  Dr. Maa has received several accolades for her work in telemedicine at the VA including a ‘Honorable Mention’ for TECS by then Undersecretary of Health David Shulkin’s book “The Best Care Everywhere”\; VISN 7 Big Idea Group Competition First Place Winner\, the Mark Wolcott Award for Excellence in Clinical Care Leadership\, and the 2018 Employee of the Year for the Atlanta VA in Scientific Achievement.     \n\nAdam VanDeusen is a PhD student in Industrial and Operations Engineering at the University of Michigan working with Dr. Amy Cohn. His research applies operations research methods to public health policy\, primarily access to care. Adam previously worked as a health systems engineer at Mayo Clinic and as Senior Director\, Clinical Programs\, at The Health Management Academy. He earned his Bachelor's degree in Industrial and Operations Engineering at the University of Michigan and his Master of Public Health in Chronic Disease Epidemiology at Yale School of Public Health.\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:Lecture / Discussion:The class struggle\, revolution\, & socialism in the 21st century
DESCRIPTION:There is great interest in socialism in the US\, but little understanding of what the struggle for socialism entails. The capitalist media is trying to channel pro-socialist sentiment toward the Democratic Party and portray it as a mildly reformist program that involves no fundamental change in the allocation of wealth\, let alone the overthrow of existing property relations. It is a “socialism” that can even attract the support of thoughtful and socially conscious investment bankers.\n\nBut socialism can only be realized by the conscious political mobilization of the American and international working class in the greatest revolutionary struggle in history. The working class must prepare itself for this struggle by learning the lessons of the 20th century\, which was the scene of the greatest revolutionary upheavals of history. It must learn the history of the Fourth International\, the revolutionary socialist opposition to Stalinist counter-revolution.\n\nEither the working class carries out the revolutionary overthrow of capitalism or it will be subjected to fascistic dictatorships and catastrophic wars. The political alternative that stands before humanity is not mild reform or the status quo\, but revolutionary socialism or capitalist barbarism.

DESCRIPTION:The great Bruce Cockburn\, who won the inaugural People’s Voice Award at the Folk Alliance International conference in February and is being inducted into the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame in September\, continues to find inspiration in the world around him and channel those ideas into songs. “My job is to try and trap the spirits of things in the scratches of pen on paper and the pulling of notes out of metal\,” he once noted. More than forty years after embarking on his singer-songwriting career\, Bruce Cockburn keeps kicking at the darkness so that it might bleed daylight. He's a Canadian legend\, and\, word to the wise\, his Ark shows generally sell out. Bruce comes to Michigan with a new release\, \"Bone on Bone.\"

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.

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.

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.

Another one of the seven artists\, Lorraine Kolasa\, picked up the old fashioned art of tatting\, then cast tiny pieces of her handmade lace into sterling silver jewelry. Michael Nashef\, who spent half his life in war-torn Lebanon\, has created a series of innovative vessels and brooches. Other artists included in this exhibit are Kim Cridler\, Roger Smith\, Renee Zettle-Sterling and Ruth Taubman\, whose unmatched exuberance of color and 36 years of work and business innovation\, place her jewelry firmly on the national stage.

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

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.

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:Art Exhibit: Nancy Blum\, RC Class of '85
DESCRIPTION:RC alumna '85 Nancy Blum returns to East Quad to exhibit her drawings of flowers and to deliver the 10/19 Robertson Lecture on her public art installations. \n\nExcerpted from her artist statement:\nMy large‐scale works on paper\, rendered in ink\, colored pencil\, gouache and graphite\, portray a fantastic realm in which flowers own the space. I use a variety of 16th and 17th-century botanical images\, from Chinese plum blossoms to German botanicals\, as starting points for each drawing. Rather than alluding to an actual landscape\, I instead combine species of plants in the same drawing that would not customarily exist together in nature. Obsessive handwork creates intricate layers of visual information to be discovered over time and\, in this way\, the works become a seductive meditation for the viewer.\n\nI use botanical motifs to create images that are universally associated with growth and continuity. My deeper intent is to conjure the ‘flower’ as an active\, forceful agent\, subverting a culturally conditioned point of view that often deems the ephemeral and the organic as less powerful and of limited value. My ‘wonderland’ presents a view of life that pulses with expansive fecundity\; hopefully\, it also propels comprehension of the connectedness of all beings within the limitless energy operating throughout this world.\n\nWhen making art for public spaces\, I strive to invest these commissions with similar content\, while bringing beauty and a high level of craft to a particular environment. As I conceive and develop each piece\, I respond to the specifics of the surrounding architecture\, ecosystem\, and community in an effort to compellingly meet the needs of the site. My studio practice\, in turn\, is invigorated by opportunities to design work in relationship to an existing framework\, and the special demands and responsibilities this process entails.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Understanding Movies
DESCRIPTION:We will consider the key stylistic elements of movies and how they are used. Like other art forms\, motion pictures have their own “language” or “grammar” that enables them to communicate actions\, ideas and emotions to us. With many examples and the screening of complete feature films\, we will see how mise-en-scene\, editing\, sound\, and narrative structure function. \n\nOur features will include Casablanca\, Sliding Doors\, Singin’ in the Rain\, and 500 Days of Summer.  \n\nInstructor Dr. Henry Aldridge is an Emeritus Professor of Electronic Media and Film Studies at Eastern Michigan University.  This study group for those 50 and over will meet on Tuesdays\, 10-1\, from October 23 through November 13.  For transportation and parking options\, call the OLLI office at (734) 998-9351.

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:Workshop / Seminar:Beyond numerical integration: studying nonlinear dynamics with polynomial optimization
DESCRIPTION:Systems characterized by complex nonlinear dynamics lie at the heart of 21st century technology. Examples are turbulent flows in the transport and aviation industries\, smart energy networks\, and models of cell dynamics used in synthetic biology. Quantitative analysis of such systems using direct numerical simulations sometimes requires prohibitively large computational resources even when one is interested only in some average properties\, such as mean power consumption\, because all time and length scales across which the system evolves must be resolved. In addition\, while numerical simulations offer detailed information starting from a specific initial state\, they cannot provide safety-critical performance or stability guarantees that hold for all possible initial states. In this talk\, I will describe an alternative approach to studying nonlinear systems with polynomial dynamics\, which combines ideas from Lyapunov's stability theory with recent numerical tools for polynomial optimization. In particular\, I will present a range of examples that demonstrate how this optimization-based method enables the efficient algorithmic construction of stability certificates and the computation of rigorous bounds on performance-related system properties. Other applications\, including optimal control and disturbance amplification analysis\, will be discussed along with open problems and future research directions.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | Why Bother? The Place of Socialist Propaganda Theater in China
DESCRIPTION:This presentation argues against the conventional wisdom which views the performance culture of the People’s Republic of China as a monolithic\, top-down\, and meaningless practice characterized solely by censorship in a totalitarian regime. Professor Chen will demonstrate that propaganda performances on the process and history of the communist revolution and its leaders can be studied as a complex\, dialogic\, and interweaving process\, in which multiple voices and opposing views collide\, negotiate\, and compromise in forming what looks like a mainstream ideology—and indeed functions as such—to legitimize the state and its right to rule. She argues that propaganda study can delineate performative rituals which insinuated itself in the form of “personal” memories\, nostalgia\, commercial culture\, pop culture\, youth culture\, and the cybersphere with popular appeal\, which can explore­ the charisma of revolutionary leaders to create romance\, detective\, suspense\, and war stories that overlap with Hollywood blockbusters despite their obvious differences. \n    \nXiaomei Chen is a professor at the University of California at Davis where she teaches modern Chinese literature\, film\, and theater. She is the author of \"Occidentalism\" (1995)\, \"Acting the Right Part\" (2002) and \"Staging Chinese Revolution\" (2016). She is the editor of \"Reading the Right Text\" (2003) and the \"Columbia Anthology of Modern Chinese Drama\" (2010) and co-editor\, with Claire Sponsler\, of \"East of West: Cross-Cultural Performances and the Staging of Difference\" (2000)\"\; with Julia Andrew\, of \"Visual Culture in Contemporary China\" (2001)\, and with Steven Siyuan Liu\, \"Hong Shen and the Modern Mediasphere in Republican-Era China\" (2016).\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. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange. Email us at chinese.studies@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:FellowSpeak: \"Spatial Narratives in Architecture and Fiction\"
DESCRIPTION:A 30 min. talk by Keith Mitnick\, Institute for the Humanities 2018-19 Helmut F. Stern Faculty Fellow and associate professor of architecture\, followed by Q & A.\n\nIn this talk\, Mitnick reflects upon the ways that buildings and fiction writing embody different forms of spatial narratives that shape how we experience the physical environment.\n\nSimilar to the way that architecture is used in literature to define the social and psychological outlooks of characters\, and the settings in which their lives occur\, buildings present fictions about the world. By framing “views\,” ordering “centers\, margins and in-betweens\,” and choreographing movement and sensorial experience\, they tell stories about who are\, what we value\, and where we are—a process that becomes particularly interesting when the fictions they present fail to align with what we hold to be true. The images we create of our buildings and cities tell stories as well\, shaping our conceptions about the places in which we live\, and broadcasting them to others.\n\nUsing examples of his own work as an architect and a writer\, he will creatively explore the intersection of different spatial narratives in words\, images and physical forms\, and conjecture upon new approaches for considering their similarities and differences.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Healing Justice Workshop Series | #2
DESCRIPTION:Announcing a special edition workshop series for Fall 2018: Healing Justice as Building Cultural Resilience\nThese workshops\, coordinated by SID faculty member Diana Copeland\, will be held Tuesdays at the Cass Corridor Commons from 7pm-9pm beginning on October 16. All workshops are free and open to the public and will include a light dinner. \n\nCultural organizing places culture at the center of an organizing strategy. It can be done to unite people through the humanity of culture and the democracy of participation.  This fall we will explore the ways in which healing justice\; creativity and arts enhance cultural organizing through a series of unique workshops led by Detroiters that are at the forefront of this movement. This type of creative organizing empowers communities to come together in celebration of culture while developing valuable skills that challenge power and oppression. \n\nHealing Justice is woven through each of the workshops.  Dr. Page of the Kindred Healing Justice Collective (often attributed with coining the phrase) describes Healing Justice as identifying how we can holistically respond to and intervene on generational trauma and violence\, and to bring collective practices that can impact and transform the consequences of oppression on our bodies\, hearts and minds.”\n\nRSVP is encouraged\, but not required.\n\nTransportation from Ann Arbor will be provided. If you need transportation\, please let us know by emailing us at semesterindetroit@umich.edu.\n\nWorkshop Schedule:\nOctober 16th: Use of folk magic as defense against colonial structures and community oppression - Introduction to magic mediums for turning inwards and better understanding our own intuition. \nWorkshop by Gemineye Tarot\n\nOctober 23rd: Intro to Tarot card reading and using intuition for selfcare\nWorkshop by Gemineye Tarot\n\nOctober 30th: Beat back the oppressors!

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

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

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

SUMMARY:Exhibition: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: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:Art Exhibit: Nancy Blum\, RC Class of '85
DESCRIPTION:RC alumna '85 Nancy Blum returns to East Quad to exhibit her drawings of flowers and to deliver the 10/19 Robertson Lecture on her public art installations. \n\nExcerpted from her artist statement:\nMy large‐scale works on paper\, rendered in ink\, colored pencil\, gouache and graphite\, portray a fantastic realm in which flowers own the space. I use a variety of 16th and 17th-century botanical images\, from Chinese plum blossoms to German botanicals\, as starting points for each drawing. Rather than alluding to an actual landscape\, I instead combine species of plants in the same drawing that would not customarily exist together in nature. Obsessive handwork creates intricate layers of visual information to be discovered over time and\, in this way\, the works become a seductive meditation for the viewer.\n\nI use botanical motifs to create images that are universally associated with growth and continuity. My deeper intent is to conjure the ‘flower’ as an active\, forceful agent\, subverting a culturally conditioned point of view that often deems the ephemeral and the organic as less powerful and of limited value. My ‘wonderland’ presents a view of life that pulses with expansive fecundity\; hopefully\, it also propels comprehension of the connectedness of all beings within the limitless energy operating throughout this world.\n\nWhen making art for public spaces\, I strive to invest these commissions with similar content\, while bringing beauty and a high level of craft to a particular environment. As I conceive and develop each piece\, I respond to the specifics of the surrounding architecture\, ecosystem\, and community in an effort to compellingly meet the needs of the site. My studio practice\, in turn\, is invigorated by opportunities to design work in relationship to an existing framework\, and the special demands and responsibilities this process entails.

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:Lecture / Discussion:Energy Storage: Predicting the Future is a lot Easier These Days
DESCRIPTION:About Sue Babenic: Sue Babinec is a Senior Advisor at the Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) and is responsible for their energy storage portfolio–both transportation and grid. In the commercialization aspects of this role she prepares breakthrough energy technology teams for the transition from lab to market by coaching on patents\, manufacturing process design/economics and partnerships with customers/funding groups. In her strategy role she helps to shape improved approaches\, across a broad spectrum\, towards maximizing positive impact of ARPA-E technologies on the US competitiveness.\n\nTalk abstract:\nThe long awaited emergence of ES as an economically sound enabler of electrified trans- portation\, often considered pure speculation\, is now a reality. Li-Ion is satisfying the many criteria for ICE parity which was originally set by DOE. Its high volume manufacturing now gives rise to lower costs which ensures continued commoditization and widespread adoption\, albeit not based on US as the market lead. Thus the formerly nascent industry is settling in to predictable mature behaviors. For the reimagined GRID of the future\, cost effective wind and solar renewables coupled to the now cost effective Li-Ion storage are beginning to beat the usual approaches for electricity generation - without subsidies. In this presentation we will look at the evolution and some of the details of this pres- ent case\, the remaining performance shortcomings\, and how they might be met. Topics will include global manufacturing supply/demand trends\, economics of scale\, remaining technology gaps and technical challenges\, including ARPA-E breakthrough approaches for both transportation and stationary. Our problem has transitioned from grappling to bring Li-Ion to the world to avoiding its total technology lock-in\, which may ultimately thwart the next generation of progress.

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:Policy Change as Political Strategy: America’s Health Reform Mosaics in Comparative Perspective
DESCRIPTION:Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy\, Betty Ford Classroom (1110)\n735 S. State Street\, Ann Arbor  48109-3091\n11:30am-12:50pm \n\nFree and open to the public.  Pizza lunch provided. \n\nProfessor Tuohy will speak about her new book\, Remaking Policy: Scale\, Pace and Political Strategy in Health Care Reform (University of Toronto Press 2018).  The book presents a new theoretical framework for addressing perennial questions about the drivers of policy change. It argues that the scale and pace of major policy change - change that alters the balance of power\, the methods of control or the organizing principles of a policy arena – are fundamentally driven by political calculations at the centre of government\, as political actors assess their ability to overcome vetoes not only in the present but also over time. The book develops this argument by drawing on ten cases of health policy change across seven decades (1945-2017) and four nations (the United States\, Britain\, the Netherlands and Canada).  In her talk Prof. Tuohy will pay particular attention to the American cases\, showing why the US is especially prone to “mosaic” bursts of simultaneous small-scale changes\, and why both “big-bang” (large scale\, fast paced) and “blueprint” (large scale\, slow paced) strategies have proved elusive.\n\n\nCarolyn Tuohy specializes in comparative public policy\, particularly social policy. She holds a B.A. from the University of Toronto\, and an M.A. and Ph.D. in Political Science from Yale University. In addition to Remaking Policy\, her publications include Accidental Logics: the Dynamics of Change in the Health Care Arena in the United States\, Britain and Canada (Oxford University Press 1999) and Policy and Politics in Canada: Institutionalized Ambivalence (Temple University Press 1992)\, a treatment of Canadian public policy in comparative perspective. She is the co-editor of Exploring Social Insurance: Can a Dose of Europe Cure Canadian Health Care Finance? (McGill-Queen’s University Press 2008) and Taking Public Universities Seriously (University of Toronto Press 2005).\nIn addition she is the author of numerous journal articles and book chapters in the areas of health and social policy\, professional regulation\, and comparative approaches in public policy\, and is frequently consulted by government and related agencies on public policy matters. From 1992-2005 she held a number of senior administrative positions at the University of Toronto\, including Deputy Provost and Vice-President\, Government and Institutional Relations. She is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada.\n\nSponsored by: Center for Local\, State\, and Urban Policy (CLOSUP)\nCo-sponsored by:  School of Public Health\n\nFor more information contact closup@umich.edu or call 734-647-4091.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Luzinterruptus: \"Literature vs. Traffic\" Post-Event Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Members of the undercover Spanish art collective Luzinterruptus join us for a discussion about the Oct. 23 \"Literature vs. Traffic\" installation.\n\nAbout the installation:\n\nThis October\, the Institute for the Humanities is shutting down Liberty Street near U-M campus. We’re going to reuse thousands of discarded books\, turning them into an illuminated pathway for “Literature vs. Traffic\,” a large-scale art installation by Spanish undercover art collective Luzinterruptus.\n\nAnn Arbor joins Toronto\, New York\, and Melbourne\, as we feature--for one night only--the brilliance of 10\,000 books and thousands of LED lights. What was just a street will become a beautiful installation\, as we bring the power of art\, education\, the written word\, and free thought to the entire Ann Arbor community by essentially “paving” Liberty St. with thousands of glowing books.\n\nThis is a grass-roots project and your participation is essential!\n\nWant to play a part in this amazing campus and community-wide project? We need:\n\nVolunteers: Community and campus groups and individuals to volunteer to work with the artists to prep & attach lights to books (Oct 15-23)\, and the day of the event (Oct 23)\;\n\nDonations: Books that would otherwise be recycled or thrown away\;\n\nVisitors: Come view the extraordinary installation\, and help us extend the life of a book by taking one (or more) home (Oct. 23 5-11pm).\n\nSmall quantities of books can be dropped off at the Institute for the Humanities office at 202 S. Thayer. We can also pick up larger quantities of books. Read more on our website at www.lsa.umich.edu/humanities\, or email luzinterruptus@umich.edu to volunteer\, schedule a book pick-up\, or with questions.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:PhD Defense: Ciara Sivels
DESCRIPTION:Title: Development of an Advanced Radioxenon Detector for Nuclear Explosion Monitoring\n\nChair: Sara Pozzi\n\nAbstract: The Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty was opened for signature in 1996 and seeks to ban nuclear weapons testing worldwide. The International Monitoring System (IMS) was established to verify treaty compliance\, and consists of four technologies: seismic\, infrasound\, hydroacoustic\, and radionuclide. The radionuclide component of the IMS conducts atmospheric monitoring to identify radioactive particles and gases associated with nuclear testing\, such as radioxenon. As a noble gas\, the radioxenon produced in an underground nuclear explosion can be released into the atmosphere\, for subsequent detection by the IMS. Radioxenon is also produced by fission-based civilian processes\, such as nuclear reactors and medical isotope production facilities\, requiring discrimination between these sources. The focus of this work is to improve the resolution and sensitivity of radioxenon monitoring systems.\n\nRadioxenon is measured using beta-gamma coincidence techniques\, typically with scintillating plastic and NaI(Tl) detectors\; however\, the poor energy resolution of the plastic results in isotopic interference\, complicating the analysis. Additionally\, radon emits decay energies that interfere with those from radioxenon\, requiring complex gas- processing systems to filter it from the sample. Furthermore\, radioxenon diffuses into the plastic detectors\, which increases the background of subsequent measurements\; this phenomenon is known as the memory effect. To mitigate these issues\, this thesis demonstrated 1) an anticoincidence analysis method to better identify metastable isotopes\, 2) a validated MCNPX-PoliMi simulation tool to analyze new detector systems and produce training spectra for analysis testing\, and 3) a prototype radioxenon detector system based on stilbene.\n\nStilbene cell prototypes have been developed\, tested\, and compared with a traditional plastic scintillator cell. The results show that the stilbene cell has similar response to the plastic cell with an improved energy resolution\, full-width at half-maximum decreased by 2.2 keV at 129 keV. The stilbene cell is capable of pulse shape discrimination allowing for radon mitigation through alpha identification. The analysis presented reduced the minimum detectable concentration of Xe-135 by 1% and could be used for environmental monitoring. The stilbene cell was shown to have 0.043% residual activity compared to 4.5% residual activity for the plastic cell\, demonstrating significantly improved memory effect. The results presented in the thesis allow for better identification of metastable isotopes\, improved simulation techniques\, and improved detection sensitivity which could lead to improved source discrimination strengthening the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty verification regime.

DESCRIPTION:                                                                                                                                                Increased environmental and impurity restrictions on consumer products\, also the desire to reduce the cost and energy requirements of chemical transformations\, have established a critical need for the development of more selective and efficient catalysts. An attractive approach to addressing this need is the use of catalysts that can be altered through post-synthetic modifications. Several commonly employed methods to change catalyst reactivity post-synthesis include the manipulation of pH\, photoactivation\, or even changes in solvent. This talk will discuss the synthesis\, characterization\, and reactivity of fluorescent dye-containing main group compounds that are capable of exhibiting a colorimetric response upon binding substrate molecules. This talk will also describe the incorporation of fluorescent dye-containing ligands into metal and main group complexes for switchable reactivity.                                                                          \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nZachariah Heiden (Washington State University)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IOE 899 and MICDE Seminar series: Juan Pablo Vielma\, MIT Sloan School of Management
DESCRIPTION:Title: Modeling power of mixed integer convex optimization problems and their effective solution with Julia and JuMP\n\nAbstract:\nMore than 50 years of development have made mixed integer linear programming (MILP) an extremely successful tool. MILP's modeling flexibility allows it describe a wide range of business\, engineering and scientific problems\, and\, while MILP is NP-hard\, many of these problems are routinely solved in practice thanks to state-of-the- art solvers that nearly double their machine-independent speeds every year. Inspired by this success\, the last decade has seen a surge of activity on the solution and application of mixed integer convex programming (MICP)\, which extends MILP's versatility by allowing the use of convex constraints in addition to linear inequalities. In this talk we cover various recent developments concerning theory\, algorithms and computation for MICP. Solvers for MICP can be significantly more effective than those for more general non-convex optimization\, so one of the questions we cover in this talk is what classes of non-convex constraints can be modeled through MICP. We also cover the solution of MICP problems through polyhedral approximation algorithms that exploit the power of extended formulations. Finally\, we cover various topics concerning the modeling and computational solution of MICP problems using the Julia programming language and the JuMP modeling language for optimization. In Particular\, we show how mixed integer optimal control problems where the variables are polynomials can be easily modeled and solved by seamlessly combining several Julia packages and JuMP extensions with the Julia-written MICP solver Pajarito.\n\nBio:\nJuan Pablo Vielma is the Richard S. Leghorn (1939) Career Development Associate Professor at MIT Sloan School of Management and is affiliated to MIT’s Operations Research Center. Dr. Vielma has a B.S. in Mathematical Engineering from University of Chile and a Ph.D. in Industrial Engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology. His current research interests include the theory and practice of mixed-integer mathematical optimization and applications in natural resource management\, marketing and statistics. In January of 2017 he was named by President Obama as one of the recipients of the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE). Some of his other recognitions include the NSF CAREER Award\, the INFORMS Computing Society Prize and a first prize in the INFORMS Junior Faculty Interest Group Paper Competition. He served as vice-chair of Integer and Discrete Optimization for the INFORMS Optimization Society and as chair of the INFORMS Section on Energy\, Natural Resources\, and the Environment. He is currently an associate editor for Operations Research and Operations Research Letters\, a member of the NumFocus steering committee for JuMP\, and the Faculty Director for the MIT-Chile program of MIT's International Science and Technology Initiatives (MISTI).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The First Phoenix of New Spain: Sixteenth-Century Mexican Feathered Microcarving in European Hands
DESCRIPTION:From the mid-sixteenth to the early seventeenth century\, artists working in central Mexico produced a diverse array of portable devotional objects in which minute wooden carvings based on European prints were set against grounds of brightly colored hummingbird feathers. My talk reunites this corpus of feathered microcarvings currently dispersed in collections throughout Europe and the Americas in order to consider their reception by the European audiences for whom they were created. While recent scholarship addressing the migration of featherwork across the Atlantic has theorized its value in relation to early modern artistic debates\, this talk instead considers the significance of pairing feathers from a specific family of birds with a limited range of Christian iconography in objects that were intended to serve as instruments of private devotion. Looking at this group through the prism of European commentary addressing the hummingbird’s scale\, its colors\, and its unique behavior sheds light on the ways in which period audiences collapsed distinctions between curio and devotional object\, the study of nature and the contemplation of the divine.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Natural World: Pagans and Christians – Robin Lane Fox\, Emeritus Fellow of New College\, Oxford University (2018 Thomas Spencer Jerome Lecture Series)
DESCRIPTION:The series explores the differing approaches to the natural word by pagans and the early Christians from Paul and the Gospels to c AD 500. It brings out differing emphases in their respective writings and art and also asks what practical effects such different ways of seeing had. \n\nLecture 1: Cosmos and Landscape in Pagan and Christian Views of Creation (October 17th)\nPagan and Christian views of Creation\, man’s dominance over the beasts and the vegetal world and on modern theories of a shift from a horizontal view of the relation of the natural world and the divine to a vertical view of it\, endorsed by Christianity.\n\nLecture 2: Flowers and the Vegetal World (October 19th)\nthe understanding and symbolism of plants and flowers in Christian and pagan art\, life and thinking\,  including the idea of ‘paradise’ and  erotic and virginal perceptions of gardens\, concluding with the gardening of monks and desert Fathers in natural adversity.\n\nLecture 3: The Hierarchy of Animals (October 22nd)\nAnthropocentric views in the Christians’ scriptures\, compared with pagan thinkers’ views …and on the hierarchy and symbolism of animals\, including cats\, in pagan and Christian art and thinking and on their role in both groups’ experience \,especially those of hunters\, martyrs and Christian holy men.\n\nLecture 4: Signs and Catastrophes (October 24th)\nCompared pagan and Christian notions of  omens and signs\, prodigies and miracles and their  explanations of natural catastrophes\, including volcanic and seismic disasters\, still familiar in our world. It will conclude with Christians’ contrasting view of the End of the world and the place of perverted natural symbols in expressing it.

DESCRIPTION:Directed by Ai Weiwei (140 min.\, 2017).\n\nOver 65 million people around the world have been forced from their homes to escape famine\, climate change and war in the greatest human displacement since World War II. \"Human Flow\,\" an epic film journey led by the internationally renowned artist Ai Weiwei\, gives a powerful visual expression to this massive human migration. The documentary elucidates both the staggering scale of the refugee crisis and its profoundly personal human impact.\n\nCaptured over the course of an eventful year in 23 countries\, the film follows a chain of urgent human stories that stretches across the globe in countries including Afghanistan\, Bangladesh\, France\, Greece\, Germany\, Iraq\, Israel\, Italy\, Kenya\, Mexico\, and Turkey. \"Human Flow\" is a witness to its subjects and their desperate search for safety\, shelter and justice: from teeming refugee camps to perilous ocean crossings to barbed-wire borders\; from dislocation and disillusionment to courage\, endurance and adaptation\; from the haunting lure of lives left behind to the unknown potential of the future. \"Human Flow\" comes at a crucial time when tolerance\, compassion\, and trust are needed more than ever. This visceral work of cinema is a testament to the unassailable human spirit and poses one of the questions that will define this century: Will our global society emerge from fear\, isolation\, and self-interest and choose a path of openness\, freedom\, and respect for humanity? \n    \nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to cesmichigan@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:High Stakes Culture
DESCRIPTION:The digital is cultural and it has gotten ugly. The tone of online discourse is increasingly one of complaining\, mistrust\, and disapproval. The seemingly innocent \"like\" can unleash a torrent of attention-grabbing incivility. Platforms give trolls undue influence with the effect of normalizing emotional responses and off-topic discussions. What do we do?\n\nPlease join us for a conversation about what humanists can contribute to a reimagining of digital platforms. What do we know about how today's polarizing discourse has evolved? What can we learn from previous times in history where discourse was thought to be degenerating? How can the humanities help us form thoughtful communities of diverse opinions? \n\nCome talk to Kamilah Taylor and Daniel Burke\, co-founders of Swaay\, a start-up dedicated to rebuilding digital platforms to encourage thoughtful exchange\; Knight-Wallace Fellow Rachel Rohr\; and Megan Ankerson\, communication studies\, about their work and the challenges they are encountering. Angela Dillard\, Afroamerican and African studies and Residential College\, will moderate.

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

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

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

SUMMARY:Exhibition: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: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:Art Exhibit: Nancy Blum\, RC Class of '85
DESCRIPTION:RC alumna '85 Nancy Blum returns to East Quad to exhibit her drawings of flowers and to deliver the 10/19 Robertson Lecture on her public art installations. \n\nExcerpted from her artist statement:\nMy large‐scale works on paper\, rendered in ink\, colored pencil\, gouache and graphite\, portray a fantastic realm in which flowers own the space. I use a variety of 16th and 17th-century botanical images\, from Chinese plum blossoms to German botanicals\, as starting points for each drawing. Rather than alluding to an actual landscape\, I instead combine species of plants in the same drawing that would not customarily exist together in nature. Obsessive handwork creates intricate layers of visual information to be discovered over time and\, in this way\, the works become a seductive meditation for the viewer.\n\nI use botanical motifs to create images that are universally associated with growth and continuity. My deeper intent is to conjure the ‘flower’ as an active\, forceful agent\, subverting a culturally conditioned point of view that often deems the ephemeral and the organic as less powerful and of limited value. My ‘wonderland’ presents a view of life that pulses with expansive fecundity\; hopefully\, it also propels comprehension of the connectedness of all beings within the limitless energy operating throughout this world.\n\nWhen making art for public spaces\, I strive to invest these commissions with similar content\, while bringing beauty and a high level of craft to a particular environment. As I conceive and develop each piece\, I respond to the specifics of the surrounding architecture\, ecosystem\, and community in an effort to compellingly meet the needs of the site. My studio practice\, in turn\, is invigorated by opportunities to design work in relationship to an existing framework\, and the special demands and responsibilities this process entails.

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:Workshop / Seminar:Graduate Student Workshop with Virginia Jackson
DESCRIPTION:A conversation with Virginia Jackson to discuss two of her published papers: “Specters of the Ballad” (Nineteenth Century Literature\, 2016) and “The Function of Criticism at the Present Time” (Los Angeles Review of Books\, 2015). The workshop will involve topics relevant to graduate student professionalization\, including issues of craft and public-facing scholarship. Please reach out to Zoey Dorman (zdorman@umich.edu) or Talin Tahajian (talatahaj@umich.edu) to receive copies of the pre-circulated papers.\n\n“This essay [‘Specters of the Ballad’] argues that Paul Laurence Dunbar’s ballad ‘The Haunted Oak’ (1901) indexes Dunbar’s invention of the modern American lyric through the (lynching) form of modern racism. How does race ghost-write poetry’s redefinition around the lyric? How does it create a dramatically abstract ‘speaker’ that gives voice to and for an imagined community? Dunbar inverts both romantic apostrophe and Victorian dramatic monologue and dialogue in his speaking bough. He does this by framing his poem as a pre-romantic border ballad\, a tale of Scots rebellion and English law superimposed upon American racist violence. What Jacqueline Goldsby has dubbed ‘racism’s modern life form’ thus becomes modern American poetry’s life form\, a lyricized poetic history haunted from root to branch.”\n\n“‘The Function of Criticism at the Present Time’ is part of part of the Los Angeles Review of Books special series ‘No Crisis’: a look at the state of critical thinking and writing—literary interpretation\, art history\, and cultural studies—in the 21st century. Jackson reviews Lauren Berlant’s Cruel Optimism.”

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:Conference / Symposium:2018 Conference on Transportation\, Economics\, Energy\, and the Environment
DESCRIPTION:The TE3 conference brings economic scholars together with government and industry practitioners to exchange ideas and strengthen collective knowledge for addressing transportation energy and environmental policy challenges.\n\nWhat transportation energy and environmental policies will foster progress toward long-term climate protection goals given the volatility of energy markets and uncertainties in consumer behavior?\n\nRelevant factors include technology cost and investment needs for vehicles\, fuels and related infrastructure\; changing demands for travel\; social issues including changeable consumer behavior\; new mobility services\; car sharing\; public transportation and other mode choice issues. The theme encompasses tensions between current low fuel prices and tightening fuel economy and GHG emissions standards\, as well as longer-term issues around aligning infrastructure\, fuel\, and vehicle design and consumer education for a sustainable future.\n\nSponsored by the University of Michigan Energy Institute\, this year’s conference will include three paper sessions on economic and policy research that address energy use in the transportation sector and its environmental implications. Last year’s conference featured an outstanding selection of papers covering fuel economy and emissions\, technology incentives\, alternative fuels\, consumer adoption and behavior\, impact of vehicle scrappage programs\, and infrastructure.  In addition\, a policy panel with representatives from industry\, government and academia will discuss how transportation policy can foster progress towards long term fuel economy and emissions goals in the face of fuel price volatility and greenhouse gas emissions standards.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Beyond the Lines: Exploring Long-Term Cultural Dynamics in Nasca\, Peru
DESCRIPTION:The Nasca region of Peru is best known for the lines (geoglyphs) that were created on the desert floor. While the geoglyphs were an integral part of the Nasca Culture (AD 100-650) this ancient society was just one of many that made Nasca their home. During the several thousand years of occupation the region saw many transformations including the development of regionally integrated complex societies\, imperial conquest by the highland Wari\, collapse and abandonment\, resettlement of the region possibly by highlanders\, and imperial conquest once again by the Inca. Many factors were involved in these shifts\, and included the organization of kinship groups\, subsistence strategies\, influxes of immigrants and new ideas\, religious movements\, climate change\, trade and social networks\, and external imperial policies. This talk will explore these issues and the implications for broader patterns of change in the Andean region.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:ChE Seminar Series: Cecilia Leal
DESCRIPTION:Department of Materials Science and Engineering\nUniversity of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign\n\nABSTRACT\n\"Complexity in the chemistry and physics of lipid membranes as a handle to activate the delivery of cargo to cells\"\n\nLipid materials having nanostructures that deviate from the conventional flat bilayer arrangement such as hexagonally packed lipid tubes and bicontinuous cubic phases are ubiquitous in nature. Their role remains elusive but over the years several pathologies and organelle functions have been coupled to lipid membrane structural complexity. In this talk we will discuss lipid membrane polymorphism and how it can be exploited to generate a new class of materials for the delivery of cargo to cells. We combine a number of techniques including X-ray scattering\, cryo-EM\, and cell culture to demonstrate that the structure of lipid nanoparticles is a powerful handle to boost the delivery of genes to cells. The simple argument that non-bilayer phases having intertwined nanoscale channels exist to increase surface-to-volume ratio might be insufficient to completely describe the experimental findings. We will show that synthetic lipid and lipid-polymer hybrid materials are able to capture many structural and dynamic properties seen in natural systems\, when local heterogeneities and self-assembly out of equilibrium is taken into account. \n\nBIO\nCecilia Leal is an Assistant Professor of Materials Science and Engineering and is affiliated with the Frederick Seitz Materials Research Laboratory at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. She received a M.S. in Industrial Chemistry from the University of Coimbra in Portugal and a PhD in Physical Chemistry from the University of Lund in Sweden. Cecilia was a Swedish Research Council postdoctoral fellow in Materials Science at the University of California in Santa Barbara before she started her appointment at UIUC in 2012. Her research interests lie at the intersection of materials science and physical chemistry with a focus on soft materials relevant in biology. Cecilia is the recipient of a 2018 UIUC College of Engineering Dean's Award for Excellence in Research\, the 2016 NSF CAREER Award\, and the 2016 NIH Director’s New Innovator Award.

SUMMARY:Presentation:EHAP Speaker Series:  Multiple Mechanisms Underlying Endocrine Control of Behavioral Transitions: Secretion\,Transport\, Response
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nAll organisms must respond to environmental and social perturbations. Subsequent facultative hormonal cascades are key for rapid physiological and behavioral acclimation. Although many endocrine cascades are known to respond rapidly to environmental perturbations\, it is only recently that we have discovered the plasticity of these responses over the life cycle. Mechanisms underlying modulation of physiological and behavioral responses to environmental change have triggered two major hypotheses. 1. the evolutionary constraints hypothesis which posits that endocrine systems are highly conserved and there are limited ways by which the responses can be modulated. 2. The evolutionary flexibility hypothesis suggesting that there are multiple ways by which endocrine systems can be modulated. This talk will focus on specific facultative hormonal responses and explore why and how these are modulated in relation to the two hypotheses.

SUMMARY:Meeting:Statistical Learning Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Roll call scaling techniques are empirical standards for studies of voting behavior within legislative bodies. Though ideal point estimation techniques are frequently used\, the theoretical implications of assumptions made in order to empirically estimate ideal points provide cause for concern. Current scaling techniques ignore the role of group-level dependencies within the data. Assumptions about independence of observations in the scaling model ignore the possibility that members of the voting body have shared incentives to vote as a group. In turn\, this leads to potential biases in the estimated values of the ideal points and underestimation of the number of dimensions needed to model the ideal point space. In this paper\, I propose a new ideal point model that explicitly allows for group contributions in the underlying spatial model of voting. I derive a corresponding empirical model that utilizes flexible Bayesian nonparametric priors to estimate group ideological effects in ideal points and the corresponding dimensionality of the ideal points. I apply this model to the 114th U.S. House and show how grouped ideological effects can be uncovered using only a set of roll call votes. This model provides insights into open questions related to group dynamics in legislative voting and has important implications for literature that utilizes ideal point estimates.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AE585 Graduate Seminar Series - Improving Airport Surface and Terminal Airspace Operations via Strategic Decision-Making with Explicit Consideration of Tactical Recourse (Feedback Control)
DESCRIPTION:Improving Airport Surface and Terminal Airspace Operations via Strategic Decision-Making with Explicit Consideration of Tactical Recourse (Feedback Control)\n\nJohn-Paul Clarke\, Sc.D.\nCollege of Engineering Dean’s Professor\nGeorgia Institute of Technology\n\nAirport surface and terminal airspace operations are frequently subject to congestion and delays that are symptoms of our current operating paradigm.  For example\, unless there is severe airport surface congestion\, departing aircraft are typically allowed to leave their gate and continue with minimal regulation to the takeoff queue.  Similarly\, en route aircraft are typically allowed to continue with minimal regulation to the terminal airspace above their destination.  I present three algorithms for minimizing congestion and delays while fully utilizing available resources — runways\, taxiways\, ramps\, and gates.  In the first algorithm\, airspace congestion is minimized (thereby minimizing flight time\, fuel burn\, emissions\, and noise) by determining the separation required between successive aircraft prior to their descent to the runway so that each aircraft can execute a continuous descent arrival with little to no controller intervention.  In the second algorithm\, ramp congestion is minimized by determining the optimal assignment of flights to concourses based on historical statistics and then assigning flights to specific gates based on nearer-term landing time forecasts.  In the third algorithm\, runway utilization is maximized by determining the optimal initial schedule for operations on a runway given uncertainty in taxi out times and the corrective re-sequencing to account for adverse FIFO sequences. \n\nAbout the Speaker:\n\nJohn-Paul Clarke is a College of Engineering Dean’s Professor at Georgia Tech\, where he has appointments in Aerospace Engineering and Industrial and Systems Engineering\, and serves as Director of the Air Transportation Laboratory.  His research interests include aircraft trajectory prediction and optimization–especially as it pertains to the development of flight procedures that reduce the environmental impact of aviation–and the development and use of stochastic models and optimization algorithms to improve the efficiency and robustness of airline\, airport\, and air traffic operations.  His research has been particularly instrumental in changing both the theory and the practice of flight procedure design.  Professor Clarke was co-Chair of the National Academies Committee that developed the US National Agenda for Autonomy Research related to Civil Aviation\, and is a member of the NASA Advisory Council Aeronautics Committee. Over the years\, he has chaired or served on advisory and technical committees chartered by the AIAA\, EU\, FAA\, ICAO\, NASA\, the National Academies\, the US Army\, and the US DOT. Dr. Clarke received the S.B.\, S.M.\, and Sc.D. degrees from MIT in 1991\, 1992\, and 1997\, respectively.

SUMMARY:Other:C-H and C-O functionalization via radical chaperones
DESCRIPTION:                                                                                                                        Our research is focused on harnessing the untapped reactivity of cheap and abundant chemical feedstocks in organic synthesis to enable the late-stage functionalization of complex natural products and other medicinally-relevant molecules. We have recently developed new approaches for selective C-H and C-O functionalization of alcohols and carbonyls\, using a combination of radical (1e-) and closed shell (2e-) processes that act in concert with one another. These new radical chaperone strategies have enabled the development of chemical transformations with applications within molecules of biological and industrial interest.                        \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nDavid Nagib (The Ohio State University)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Communication Frictions and Knowledge Transfers: Evidence from FDI
DESCRIPTION:This paper examines knowledge transfers from foreign managers to domestic managers within MNCs. Using a newly developed survey of domestic middle managers in Myanmar\, we find evidence of large communication frictions between management layers: foreign managers cannot speak Myanmar\, domestic managers cannot speak the company's language (e.g.\, Japanese\, Korean or Chinese)\, and both groups are not well versed in English. These frictions impose costs on MNCs and impede knowledge spillovers to domestic managers. The study can help reconcile why spillovers from FDI are often limited\, despite widespread claims\, and why cross-border investment is very responsive to language barriers.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar: The biogeography of body size: using population genomics to delineate individuals in the native and invasive ranges of the death cap fungus
DESCRIPTION:The dispersal and biogeography of fungi are poorly understood\, in part because individuals grow hidden within substrates and are difficult to see or count. The fungus Amanita phalloides is deadly poisonous and a rich literature records its history in Europe and America\; the death cap is invasive in California. After briefly describing its history in North America\, I will talk about the population genomics data we are using to delineate individuals (or genets). By collecting and genotyping mapped populations of fungi from California\, Europe\, and the Northeast U.S.\, we are discovering that most mushrooms in a habitat are unique genetic individuals. Data suggest that genets of A. phalloides are typically less than 1 m in diameter. The pattern holds across California\, Europe\, and the Northeast\, and is the same for sites where populations are assumed to be young\, and sites where A. phalloides has been collected for over 30 years. In fact\, data collected at different time points from the same sites evince the same structures\, even when populations are collected 10 years apart. There appears to be no correlation between body size and geographic origin or age of a population\, moreover\, dispersal appears highly local: most spores appear to fall just next to their source.\n\nView YouTube video of seminar: https://youtu.be/tjYITvG7P-4

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EIHS Lecture: Is There a Socialist Everyday? Production and Social Reproduction in Maoist Beijing
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: In the years between 1958 and 1962\, the Urban Commune movement was promoted as a radical effort to change the daily lives of city residents. By inserting women into the “productive” life of factory work\, the movement also aimed at achieving a new form of everyday\, based on a true equality of gender relationships\, one achieved through the shared creativity of manual labor. While the movement failed\, it nonetheless brought to the fore some of the crucial tensions that marred the search for a socialist everyday: between participatory democracy and state hierarchy\, between production and liberation\, and between labor and gender equality.\n\nFabio Lanza (PhD\, Columbia University\, 2004) is professor of modern Chinese history in the Departments of History and East Asian Studies of the University of Arizona. He is the author of Behind the Gate: Inventing Students in Beijing (Columbia University Press\, 2010) and of The End of Concern: Maoist China\, Activism\, and Asian Studies (Duke University Press\, 2017). He also co-edited (with Jadwiga Pieper-Mooney) De-Centering Cold War History Local and Global Change (Routledge\, 2013).\n\nFree and open to the public. \n\nThis event is part of the Thursday Series of the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Femicide\, Infrapolitics\, and Sexual Difference
DESCRIPTION:Talk: Thursday\, October 25th\, at 4PM\nRLL Commons MLB 4th Floor\n\n\nWorkshop: Friday\, October 26th\, 11:30- 1PM\nRLL Commons MLB 4th Floor\n\n\nAll events are free and open to the public\n\n\nProfessor Sol Peláez will present a talk on sexual difference and Latin American literature\, concentrating in the works of Luce Irigaray\, Helène Cixous\, Jacques Derrida\, and Joan Copjec. Her research explores how the notion of infrapolitics articulates with sexual difference through a reading of Selva Almada’s work Chicas Muertas (2014). Almada\, an Argentine writer\, writes a hybrid text investigating 3 femicides in Argentina during the 80’s\, the first years of the democratic transition. The writing of Almada traces the hierarchical powers of gender violence and opens a space to think woman beyond the patriarchal binaries and its violence. What does it mean to be a woman if one is not what the killers want\, that is\, a mere biological body? How not to be reduced to that minimal body that the murderers aim to appropriate totally? How not to be reduced to a mere body without rest\, to escape that biological murdering determinism?\n\n\nPeláez addresses those questions from a unique perspective which engages closely with feminism and Latin-American studies. She approaches an under researched area of philosophy\, i.e. sexual difference\, and articulates it with contemporary works of Latin American fiction and critical thought. Her scholar work on gender and sexuality is addressing historical gaps in both scholarships and responds to a particular urgency to discuss women’s work and intellectual contributions in our times. \n\n\nIn the workshop\, Peláez will be present for an informal discussion of texts on sexual difference with faculty and graduate students. \n\n\nPlease e-mail rparrine@umich.com to RSVP to the workshop and receive the texts we will be discussing.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Forgetting Lyric: Frances Ellen Watkins Harper & American Sentiment
DESCRIPTION:The American Studies Consortium and the Poetry and Poetics Workshop present a lecture by Prof. Virginia Jackson (Irvine).\n\nThe history of American poetics is a mostly untold story\, partly because nineteenth-century American poetics has been misunderstood as having begun with \"the Romantic lyric\,\" an idealized genre associated with British literary history\, then having proceeded to Victorian or \"genteel\" poetry\, before it entered American poetics only in Modernism\, which has been understood as a phenomenon of the first decades of the twentieth century\, a period in which \"free verse\" poets broke with inherited or imported \"conventions.\" This way of characterizing the history of American poetry is reductive\, but some version of it has been the unstated norm for so long that we may have ceased to realize how reductive it really is. This paper will focus on the example of Frances Ellen Watkins Harper in order to begin to tell a different story about the history of American poetry.

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: What Can DNA Exonerations Tell Us About Racial Differences in Wrongful Conviction Rates?
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nWe examine the extent to which DNA exonerations can reveal whether wrongful conviction rates differ across races. We show that under a wide-range of assumptions regarding possible explicit or implicit racial biases in the DNA exoneration process (including no bias)\, our results suggest the wrongful conviction rate for rape is substantially and significantly higher among black convicts than white convicts. By contrast\, we show that only if one believes that the DNA exoneration process very strongly favors innocent members of one race over the other could one conclude that there exist significant racial differences in wrongful conviction rates for murder.\n\nco-authored with Eric Helland

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.

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

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

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

SUMMARY:Exhibition: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:Envisioning the Future: Business as Creators
DESCRIPTION:As part of the “Working Towards Shared Prosperity” conference at Ross sponsored by Business+Impact and the Aspen Institute Business & Society Program\, this is one of two free public events for students\, staff and the general public.\n\nBusiness is not an innocent bystander when it comes to forces such as technology and market shifts.  Why then is the current narrative about how business can “cope” with the future of work instead of recognizing the deep influence business has in building that future? What could a more just version of work look like and how do we get there?\n\nJim Keane\, CEO\, Steelcase will be interviewed by Joe Nocera\, Bloomberg\n\nJoined by Rebecca Henderson\, Harvard University and Tom Kochan\, MIT Sloan School of Management\n\nThis event and the conference at large are supported by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation\, Accenture\, Deloitte\, the Good Companies\, Good Jobs Initiative at MIT Sloan\, and the C.K. Prahalad Initiative.  The media partner for the conference is The Conversation.

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:Art Exhibit: Nancy Blum\, RC Class of '85
DESCRIPTION:RC alumna '85 Nancy Blum returns to East Quad to exhibit her drawings of flowers and to deliver the 10/19 Robertson Lecture on her public art installations. \n\nExcerpted from her artist statement:\nMy large‐scale works on paper\, rendered in ink\, colored pencil\, gouache and graphite\, portray a fantastic realm in which flowers own the space. I use a variety of 16th and 17th-century botanical images\, from Chinese plum blossoms to German botanicals\, as starting points for each drawing. Rather than alluding to an actual landscape\, I instead combine species of plants in the same drawing that would not customarily exist together in nature. Obsessive handwork creates intricate layers of visual information to be discovered over time and\, in this way\, the works become a seductive meditation for the viewer.\n\nI use botanical motifs to create images that are universally associated with growth and continuity. My deeper intent is to conjure the ‘flower’ as an active\, forceful agent\, subverting a culturally conditioned point of view that often deems the ephemeral and the organic as less powerful and of limited value. My ‘wonderland’ presents a view of life that pulses with expansive fecundity\; hopefully\, it also propels comprehension of the connectedness of all beings within the limitless energy operating throughout this world.\n\nWhen making art for public spaces\, I strive to invest these commissions with similar content\, while bringing beauty and a high level of craft to a particular environment. As I conceive and develop each piece\, I respond to the specifics of the surrounding architecture\, ecosystem\, and community in an effort to compellingly meet the needs of the site. My studio practice\, in turn\, is invigorated by opportunities to design work in relationship to an existing framework\, and the special demands and responsibilities this process entails.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:How Black is American Film History?: A Scholarship and Pedagogy Mini-Conference
DESCRIPTION:The event investigates the formation of the American film industry from its origins into the 1940s and beyond\, paying special attention to the racially specific underpinnings of stardom\, animation\, and exhibition. The mini-conference's invited speakers will discuss their groundbreaking research into the complex relationships between black audiences and black performers in the classical Hollywood era\, early American animation’s reliance on blackface minstrelsy\, and understanding African American film exhibition before 1930 as broadcasts of racial uplift and demands to control their own visual representation on screen. During the pedagogy session\, the speakers will also interrogate how research into film history and cinema-related archival collections can help University faculty and graduate student instructors foster and facilitate critical discussions of race with their students.

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.

Her research explores how the notion of infrapolitics articulates with sexual difference through a reading of Selva Almada’s work Chicas Muertas (2014). Almada\, an Argentine writer\, writes a hybrid text investigating 3 femicides in Argentina during the 80’s\, the first years of the democratic transition. The writing of Almada traces the hierarchical powers of gender violence and opens a space to think woman beyond the patriarchal binaries and its violence. What does it mean to be a woman if one is not what the killers want\, that is\, a mere biological body? How not to be reduced to that minimal body that the murderers aim to appropriate totally? How not to be reduced to a mere body without rest\, to escape that biological murdering determinism?\n\n\nPeláez addresses those questions from a unique perspective which engages closely with feminism and Latin-American studies. She approaches an under researched area of philosophy\, i.e. sexual difference\, and articulates it with contemporary works of Latin American fiction and critical thought. Her scholar work on gender and sexuality is addressing historical gaps in both scholarships and responds to a particular urgency to discuss women’s work and intellectual contributions in our times. \n\n\nIn the workshop\, Peláez will be present for an informal discussion of texts on sexual difference with faculty and graduate students. \n\n\nPlease e-mail rparrine@umich.com to RSVP to the workshop and receive the texts we will be discussing.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Seminar Series: Pierre Bellec\, Assistant Professor of statistics\, Rugers University
DESCRIPTION:In sparse linear regression\, it is now well understood that the Lasso achieves fast prediction rates\, provided that the correlations of the design satisfy some Restricted Eigenvalue or Compatibility condition\, and provided that the tuning parameter is at least larger than some threshold.  Using the two quantities introduced in the paper\, we show that the compatibility condition on the design matrix is actually unavoidable to achieve fast prediction rates with the Lasso.  In other words\, the $\ell_1$-regularized Lasso must incur a loss due to the correlations of the design matrix\, measured in terms of the compatibility constant.  This results holds for any design matrix\, any active subset of covariates\, and any positive tuning parameter.\nWe also characterize sharp phase transitions for the tuning parameter of the Lasso around a critical threshold dependent on the sparsity $k$.  If $\lambda$ is equal to or larger than this critical threshold\, the Lasso is minimax over $k$-sparse target vectors.  If $\lambda$ is equal or smaller than this critical threshold\, the Lasso incurs a loss of order $\sigma\sqrt k$\, even if the target vector has far fewer than $k$ nonzero coefficients. This sharp phase transition highlights a minimal penalty phenomenon similar to that observed in model selection with $\ell_0$ regularization by Birge and Massart.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Michigan Meeting Fall Symposium: Life with/in Digital Objects
DESCRIPTION:Schedule of Events for Friday\, 10/26\n12:00-12:45 meet and greet lunch\n12:45-2:15 Flash Talks by Panelists and facilitated conversation around key questions in digital objects\n2:15-2:45 coffee and cake intermission\n2:45-4:00: Bring Your Stuff activity around digital objects brought by participants and attendees.  \n4:00-5:00: Viz/VR lab open house\n\nEveryone thinks they know what digital means. So pervasive are digital technologies in the 21st century that it is difficult to find critical distance from this immersive new world of ubiquitous connectivity\, social media feeds\, smartphones\, mobile apps\, responsive design\, algorithmic recommendation systems\, and voice-controlled home shopping assistants. While the question “what is the digital?” is compelling\, the more pressing question might be instead: what does it mean to be alive in the digital age?\n\nThe 2019 Michigan Meetings will be a year-long event that critically engages with the big issues\, urgent consequences\, and radical possibilities for grappling with the meaning of life in this era of digital ubiquity. Whether defined as “animated corporeal existence\,” “vitality\,” or “to continue\, to remain\,” we see a profound opportunity to approach the digital world through a spectrum of the meaning of life-ness - alive\, liveness\, animated\, lifelike\, life-adjacent\, consciousness\, awareness\, attention\, awoke.\n\nDigital culture reconfigures the way we know our bodies\, our selves\, our work\, our objects and living spaces\, our politics\, and our sense of community. Like prior technologies\, the digital gives rise to distinct new modes of experiencing time and space. Life is lived through constant network connectivity\, GPS positioning\, software databases\, biotechnologies and wearable activity trackers\, ‘smart’ buildings\, cities\, and homes\, migrant digital labor\, computational modeling\, and the management of unfathomable streams of big data\, and artificial intelligence. Subsequently\, life is also lived through anxieties about identity theft\, hacking\, online harassment\, piracy\, surveillance and drone warfare.\n\nAcross campus\, these questions will emerge in courses\, colloquia\, lectures\, and informal conversations among students\, faculty\, staff\, and peers. We aim to support meaningful and rewarding work in the technology industries or in academic research by giving students and faculty the history\, critical perspective\, and rigorous deep-dive into humanistic questions of “new” media life with this 2019 theme.\n\nPanel Speakers:\nAndre Brock\, Georgia Tech\nCarmen Aguilar y Wedge\, HyphenLabs\nLionel Robert\, U-M School of Information\nSophia Brueckner\, U-M Art and Design\n\nThe 2019 Michigan Meeting is co-organized by:\n\nSarah Murray\, University of Michigan College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts associate professor of film\, television\, and media\nLisa Nakamura\, University of Michigan College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts associate professor of American Studies\nEllie Abrons\, University of Michigan Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning associate professor of architecture\nMegan Sapnar Ankerson\, University of Michigan College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts associate professor of communication\nMcLain Clutter\, University of Michigan Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning associate professor of architecture\nPaul Conway\, University of Michigan School of Information associate professor of information \nAdam Fure\, University of Michigan Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning associate professor of architecture\n\n*Please note: the Main Michigan Meetings Summit is Thursday and Friday\, May 9 and 10\, 2019\, Rackham Building

SUMMARY:Presentation:Psychology Methods Hour:  Explaining the Benefits and Implementation of Bayesian Cognitive Modeling to Frequentist Reviewers
DESCRIPTION:Bayesian hierarchical modeling can provide novel insights into the mechanistic processes that allow humans to complete cognitive tasks. This method may be especially useful when cognitive models from experimental psychology are applied in clinical or neuroimaging research because it allows complex models to be fit even in situations where behavioral data from individual participants is sparse. This presentation will provide a general overview of Bayesian cognitive modeling methods\, and of the sometimes challenging task of addressing concerns from reviewers who may be less familiar with them\, using an example of a paper that Alex and his co-authors have recently been working through the review process with. Topics discussed will include assessing model fit in this framework and describing Bayesian methods for modeling and hypothesis testing to Frequentist readers.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Angamuco Urban Landscape: LiDAR\, survey\, and excavation at a Purépecha City\, Michoacán\, Mexico
DESCRIPTION:Angamuco is a newly documented Purépecha (Tarascan) urban center within the Imperial heartland of the Lake Pátzcuaro Basin\, Michoacán\, Mexico. Over the last decade we have conducted full coverage survey\, urban mapping\, LiDAR scanning and analysis\, and excavation to better understand the growth and abandonment of Angamuco during the centuries prior to European contact. This work shows that (1) large urban centers with complex spatial organization and social stratification  were present centuries prior to the formation of the Purépecha Empire\, (2) the settlement incorporate gardens and other landscape features within and around the settlement demonstrating a high degree of human environmental modification\, (3) current models for the evolution of social complexity in the region cannot account for the presence of Angamuco.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Eyes on the Horizon? Fragmented Elites and the Short-Term Focus of the American Corporation
DESCRIPTION:In recent years\, scholars and popular commentators have expressed concerns that U.S. corporations are too focused on short-term performance\, thereby undermining their long-term health and competitiveness. This paper examines how this focus on short-term strategies and performance\, or short-termism\, results from the dissolution of the American corporate elite network. In particular\, we argue that the corporate-board interlock network traditionally served as an important collective resource that helped corporate elites to preserve their autonomy and control\, mitigating short-termism. In recent years\, changing board-appointment practices have fractured the board network\, undermining its usefulness as a platform for collective action and exposing corporate leaders to short-term pressures. We develop and apply a cohesion metric for network managerialism\, derived from theory and evidence in social-network scholarship. Using three indicators that capture short-termism earnings management and shareholder returns\, we identify a structural basis for managerial short-termism that links external\, network-based resources to managers’ decisions. The results highlight the benefits of the corporate elite network and illustrate unforeseen consequences of the network’s dissolution.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Cognition & Cognitive Neuroscience Forum
DESCRIPTION:Diffusion models have shown great success in explaining choice response time in a wide variety of domains. However\, to account for RT differences between correct and error responses\, the model must assume random variability in parameters across trials. The first part of this talk presents mathematical results showing that\, if this variability is unconstrained\, then the model becomes unfalsifiable. \n\nThe second part presents a positive theory of intertrial variability that resolves this problem of excess flexibility\, based on an integration of the diffusion model with reinforcement learning. These are arguably the two most successful frameworks in cognitive modeling\, respectively describing within-trial and across-trial dynamics. I provide a Bayesian derivation that yields a natural synthesis of the two models and makes novel predictions about bidirectional influences between learning and decision making. Fits to data show the model simultaneously accounts for choice and RT within trials\, learning across trials\, and various interdependencies between these two timescales.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Decolonizing European History at the Museum
DESCRIPTION:As the colonial past is increasingly being incorporated into national and transnational histories\, some museums have positioned themselves as public facilitators of the labor of mourning\, of empathetic listening\, and of rehearsing postcolonial conviviality. The presentation looks at recent exhibitions in German and European museums\, to examine how curators set struggles over racial inclusion and equality within longer histories of violence. How do these exhibitions approach the challenge of decolonizing national and European histories?  \n\nKatrin Sieg is Graf Goltz Professor and Director of the BMW Center for German and European Studies at Georgetown University\, where she is jointly affiliated with the German department.  The author of three scholarly monographs\, she has published across the fields of German\, European\, and Theater/Performance studies. Her research intersects with feminist\, postcolonial\, and critical race studies. She has received several awards and grants\, among them two awards for her second book\, Ethnic Drag: Performing Race\, Nation\, Sexuality in West Germany (2002). A fourth book\, Decolonizing German and European History at the Museum\, is under contract with the University of Michigan Press.\n\nThe German Speakers Series is sponsored by the Department of Germanic Languages and Literatures. These events are free and open to the public. If you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to participate\, please contact 734-764-8018 or germandept@umich.edu at least one week in advance. \n\nThis event is Co-Sponsored with Alamanya: Transnational German Studies Rackham Interdisciplinary Workshop and the Center for European Studies

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Engineering human tissues for regenerative medicine and study of disease
DESCRIPTION:Tissue engineering is becoming increasingly successful with authentically representing the actual environmental milieu of the development\, regeneration and disease. The paradigm of tissue engineering is related to the integrated use of human cells\, biomaterial scaffolds (structural and logistic templates for tissue formation) and bioreactors (culture systems providing environmental control\, molecular and physical signaling) in regenerative medicine. Living human tissues can be bioengineered from the autologous stem cells\, and tailored to the patient and the medical condition being treated. More recently\, the same principles are being successfully applied to the patient-specific “organs on a chip” platforms designed to recapitulate some aspects of human physiology. This talk will discuss some recent advances in regenerative engineering and modeling of disease using functional human tissues grown in lab. \n\nGordana Vunjak-Novakovic is The Mikati Foundation Professor of Biomedical Engineering and Medical Sciences at Columbia University in the City of New York.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Mothering Across Borders and the Children Left Behind:  Zimbabwean and Mexican Immigrant Female Domestic Workers in Johannesburg\, South Africa and San Diego\, United States
DESCRIPTION:This comparative study\, illustrates how motherhood materializes through the often emotionally-heavy choices that female immigrants make as they strive to take care of variably vulnerable populations often located simultaneously in different locations. In so doing\, this project illustrates how domestic labor takes shape along with women’s strategies for navigating the most intimate relationships across a global stage fraught with economic and political challenges. This research is situated in relationship to transnational feminist thought by highlighting the strategies that women use to navigate motherhood within a larger context that connects their experiences and strategies across places. As such\, by focusing on the employment experiences and choices of immigrant domestic workers who are part of transnational motherhood flows\, furthers understandings of how emotions are entangled with understandings of personal economic failure\, that are often invisible and unpaid\, while relationally shaping the everyday experiences of these women. The material for this analysis is based on oral histories of female Zimbabwean immigrants working in Johannesburg\, South Africa and ten in-depth interviews with Latina domestic workers in San Diego\, California\, including their children left behind in Mexico. \n\nLorena Munoz is an assistant professor in gender women and sexuality studies and American studies at the University of Minnesota. Her research focuses on the intersections of place\, space\, gender\, sexuality\, health\, and race. Her transdisciplinary research agenda has been focused on Latinas/Latinos in the global south\, particularly in the areas (in)formal economy\, labor\, health\, and productive/transformative agency.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Department Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:Does Virtual Reality  Consist in Veridical\, Illusory or Hallucinatory Experience?\n\nDoes virtual reality (VR) involve: (i) illusory or hallucinatory experience of things that are not there? or (ii) veridical experience of computational objects? I argue that traditional thinking about this issue involves a false dichotomy. I articulate my own account of illusion and hallucination\, and argue that it entails VR experience is complex with veridical and non-veridical elements. I begin by presenting new cases of illusion and hallucination that have not heretofore been identified. These cases show that the traditional accounts of illusion and hallucination are incorrect. I provide a taxonomy of all the different kinds of illusion and hallucination. New instances of illusion and hallucination provide much needed\, important data for testing theories of experience and perception—and can illuminate the nature of virtual reality experience. I go on to discuss virtual reality experience of the sort that is produced today\, and show that we need to take account of the nature of the technology in thinking about the veridicality of the experience.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Seminars | Hunting for Heavy Winos
DESCRIPTION:I will discuss recent progress in calculating a precision photon spectrum for heavy wino annihilation to photons\, along with implications for indirect detection experiments.  I will review arguments that the 3 TeV mass wino is one of the simplest WIMP dark matter candidates.  Then I will discuss how the large separation of scales from 3 TeV to the weak scale leads to a breakdown of perturbation theory.  I will demonstrate how one can rely on modern effective field theory techniques to restore the convergence of the perturbative expansion\, and will discuss our precision prediction for the wino annihilation spectrum.  I will review the status of searching for these photons using a ground based air Cherenkov telescope array (the H.E.S.S. experiment)\, along with the impact of our calculation on the interpretation of these limits.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Luisa Coleta and the Capuchin Friar
DESCRIPTION:In 2016 Rebecca Scott and Cuban historian Carlos Venegas came upon a record of the “confession” of María Luisa Coleta\, a refugee from the Haitian Revolution who had been unlawfully enslaved in 1796\, as narrated to Friar Félix\, who had been summoned to her deathbed in Havana. Coleta declined to accept last rites\, however\, unless the friar would return with a scribe to copy down her story and take the document to a judge to initiate a freedom suit on behalf of her daughters\, so that they would not suffer what she had suffered. The many folios of that lawsuit form the basis for the present essay\, complemented by documents from France\, England\, and the Dominican Republic that trace the Atlantic dimension to this story. Together they cast light on the complexities of discerning and documenting status in the Atlantic world in the aftermath of the Haitian Revolution.\n\nA paper will be circulated in advance of the workshop\; please contact Michael Gawlik (mrgawlik@umich.edu) if you would like a copy.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CSAS Lecture Series | A Vigil Wasted? Notes on the Ruin-Sublime in Afghanistan
DESCRIPTION:As abandoned remnants of human activity\, ruins evoke concerns about the durability of the past\, a setting\, and of human perception and culture.  This talk explores the appearance of ruins in fiction and art set in Afghanistan.  In these works syncretic colonial histories uniquely yoked to ruination (through description and setting) raise urgent questions about enduring forms of contemporary coloniality and the agency of any individual actor within a setting. This talk ultimately proposes a theory of the ‘ruin-sublime’ wherein aesthetic works join the material history of colonial desecration to psychic apprehensions to invite new ethically charged orientations towards the future.\n\nMrinalini Chakravorty\, Associate Professor of English at the University of Virginia\, is the author of In Stereotype: South Asia in the Global Literary Imaginary (Columbia UP\, 2014)\, as well as articles on transnationalism\, film\, Arab women writers\, interdisciplinarity\, and contemporary global fiction.  In Stereotype considers the influence of contemporary South Asian Anglophone novels to illustrate how their play on stereotypes about South Asia provide insight into the material and psychic investments of contemporary imaginative texts: the colonial novel\, the transnational film\, and the international best-seller. Chakravorty's other essays have appeared in PMLA\, Modern Fiction Studies\, South Asian Review\, ARIEL\, differences\, and in various journals and collections. She received her Ph.D. in English and Critical Theory from the University of California\, Irvine.  At Virginia\, she directs the English department’s Undergraduate Program and the concentration in Modern Literature and Culture.  She is at work on two new books\, one on representations of global hunger and another on postcolonial dystopias. She is also co-writing a critical biography of Freddie Mercury.

SUMMARY:Recreational / Games:Intro to Camping
DESCRIPTION:Join us on an over night trip from 4pm Friday October 26th\, 2018 to 10am Saturday\, October 27th. Want to break into the art of camping\, but don't know where to start? Then this is just the trip for you! Outdoor Adventures will be running a \"Half Over\" -- a practical teaching camp experience for those looking to get away from the city lights for the night. We'll cook a camp meal\, make smores over the fire\, set up tents and show you how to follow the \"Leave No Trace\" mentality. All equipment will be demonstrated by our trip leaders\, so you can feel confident using it. At the end of the evening\, you can decide to either stay the night in the tent\, or shuttle back to your home to sleep. This trip is open to UM students\, faculty\, staff and the general public.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Seminar Title: \"The ParA/MinD family of ATPases make waves to position DNA\, cell division\, and organelles in bacteria\"
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  Positional information in eukaryotic cells is mainly orchestrated by cytoskeletal highways and their associated motor proteins like Myosin\, Kinesin\, and Dynein. Bacteria don’t have linear motors\, so how are they spatially organized? I will be discussing three members of the ParA/MinD family of ATPases that are part of self-organizing systems that put things in their place in cells across the microbial world. I will first present the ATPase called ParA\, which is part of the most common DNA-segregation system in bacteria. ParA proteins form dynamic waves on the nucleoid to position chromosomes and plasmids in opposite cell-halves so that they are faithfully inherited after cell division. I will then discuss the ATPase called MinD\, which is part of a system that forms oscillatory waves on the inner membrane. The oscillation aligns cell division at mid-cell so that daughter cells are equal in size. Finally\, I will introduce a new member of this ATPase family we call McdA\, which is part of an organelle trafficking system in bacteria. Yes. Bacteria have organelles. Our work is shedding light on what seems to be a general mode of subcellular organization in bacteria – dynamic protein gradients surfing biological surfaces to impart positional information for a wide variety of fundamental biological processes. My new lab focuses on subcellular organization in bacteria with a strong emphasis towards reconstituting the self-organizing activities of these systems in a cell-free setup using purified and fluorescent labeled components. By visualizing the biochemistry driving self-organization outside the cell we are able to provide comprehensive molecular mechanisms that explain subcellular organization inside the cell.

SUMMARY:Other:Ultrafast Studies of Single Plasmonic Nanostructures
DESCRIPTION:                                                                        The optical properties of metal nanostructures are dominated by plasmon resonances\, which are strong collective motions of the conduction electrons. These resonances are at the heart of a variety of schemes for molecular sensing and plasmon enhanced catalysis. However\, the dynamics of plasmons can be difficult to study due to the distribution of particle sizes and shapes present in typical samples. In this talk I will describe single particle experiments that provide information about the ultrafast energy relaxation processes of plasmonic nanostructures\, and how these structures interact with their environment. Examples of the processes that have been studied include the creation of novel hybrid states through coupling between plasmons and excitons\, and the strange case of viscoelastic effects in the damping of vibrational modes of metal nanostructures.                                                                 \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nGregory Hartland (University of Notre Dame)

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

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

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

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

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

SUMMARY:Exhibition: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:Lecture / Discussion:ASP Workshop | \"Mediterranity from the Edge\" in Association with the Margins of the Mediterranean Seminar
DESCRIPTION:This workshop is part of the \"Margins of the Mediterranean\" seminar which is meeting at the University of Michigan this year. For full workshop program\, see https://ii.umich.edu/islamicstudies/news-events/events/conferences.html\n\n\"Mediterranity from the Edge\" seeks to offer a \"view from the edge\" into Mediterranean studies by looking at it from areas traditionally considered marginal to the Mediterranean world\, either in terms of geography or representation in the field: Armenia\, the Caucasus\, Ethiopia\, and the Iranian plateau.\n    \nThe papers explore the various ways in which the cultural production of Armenia and other \"peripheral\" regions interfaced with the pre-modern Mediterranean world. It therefore invites a broader conversation about notions of periphery\, border\, and contact across so-called national\, linguistic\, or religious communities--concepts that can be productive and problematic in equal measure. As the workshop suggests\, \"marginality\" as a concept can be utilized to rethink Mediterranean interconnectivity\, both culturally and geographically\, by considering every spot on the map as both a center and an edge.\n\nPresentations will include:\n\n\"Transmission in Medieval Marian Stories in the Levant\, Europe\, and Africa in a Comparative Perspective\"\nWendy Laura Belcher\, Princeton University\n\n\"The Girl Next Door: Reading the Margin as a Site of Continuity\"\nCameron Cross\, University of  Michigan\n\n\"Against Fate: Parsing Armenian Literary History from the Margins\"\nMichael Pifer\, University of  Michigan\n\nRespondent: Ryan Szpiech\, University of Michigan\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us (tumanyan@umich.edu) at least 2 weeks in advance of this event. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.\n\nAttendance is free\; registration required at http://bit.ly/MarginsMed.

DESCRIPTION:Chris Buhalis was born and raised on Detroit's east side\, but his songs come from places you can only find if you stick out your thumb and follow fate's lead. Covering territory from Alaska's whiskey-soaked bars to the spark- and steel-filled auto plants of Detroit\, Chris writes songs that speak of real people in real situations. Chris has appeared on radio's \"Acoustic Cafe\" and shared stages with the likes of David Bromberg\, Catie Curtis\, and Dave Van Ronk. Current praises Chris Buhalis for \"beautiful\, effortless Americana as honest and gently insightful as any you've heard\,\" and if you haven't heard this institution of Michigan songwriting yet\, tonight would be a great time!
