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

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

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

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

SUMMARY: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:Presentation:Orlando Magic Basketball Data Analytics Talk
DESCRIPTION:Can motion tracking data tell whether a basketball player is at increased risk of injury? What are the latest techniques that build toward an \"optimal\" NBA draft model? Can analytics measure a player's toughness?\n\nData and analytics are transforming every industry and basketball is no exception. The opportunities for analytics to contribute to wins on the court are limitless. Developments in hardware provide increasingly richer data sets about player movement\, wellness\, and ability while advancements in algorithms and statistical techniques provide increasingly insightful descriptive and predictive models for player and team performance. These topics and others are among those that have captured the interest of NBA teams like the Orlando Magic.\n\nRyan Chen is a Basketball Data Scientist in his second season with the Orlando Magic. He graduated from the University of Michigan in 2014 with a B.S.E. in Industrial & Operations Engineering (and B.M. in Music Performance) and received a M.S. in Management Science & Engineering from Stanford University in 2017. While at Michigan\, Ryan was a member of Tau Beta Pi (F13 President) and conducted research in aviation and healthcare operations with Profs. Amy Cohn and Mark Daskin and the Center for Healthcare Engineering and Patient Safety. While at Stanford\, he was a key member of the Stanford Sports Analytics Club\, contributing to prize-winning teams at the Graphicacy Major League Data Challenge\, the UNC Basketball Analytics Summit Case Competition\, and the NBA Hackathon.\n\nFood will be provided by Noodles n' Company.\n\nWhen: Sun.

SUMMARY:Performance:Steve Poltz
DESCRIPTION:Steve Poltz is not normal. He was born in Halifax\, Nova Scotia (Canada)\, but has lived most of his life in southern California\, and those geographic poles are quite likely responsible for his unhinged genius. Over the course of his life he’s met Elvis Presley (who hugged his sister for far too long)\, trick-or-treated at Liberace’s house (each finger had a diamond ring)\, was Bob Hope’s favorite altar boy (according to him)\, bravely traveled the world busking before he knew how to do it\, famously co-wrote “You Were Meant For Me” with Jewel\, pissed off David Cassidy\, and can count some of the world’s coolest people as fans. He’s also an ex–high school wrestler (98-pound class)\, an obsessed baseball fan\, a yoga practitioner\, a hopeless romantic\, a smart-ass philosopher and a child-like adventurer/observer with an absurdist’s view of this crazy world and the various life-forms that inhabit it.

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.

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.

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:CMENAS Teach-In Town Hall. What is BDS? And Why Does it Matter?
DESCRIPTION:Lorde cancelled her show in Israel in protest. So did the Pixies\, Elvis Costello\, Roger Waters\, and Santana. More than one 100 artists and musicians have joined the BDS (Boycott\, Divestment\, Sanctions) movement in solidarity with Palestinian and Israeli nonviolent activists. What motivates them? Since 2014\, twenty-five U.S. states have passed anti-BDS legislation\, citing anti-Semitism. In recent days though\, federal courts in Kansas and Arizona have ruled that such laws violate First Amendment rights to freedom of expression. What is fair and just\, in light of our diverse histories: members of the U-M community recall boycotts of Jewish businesses in Nazi Europe\, America's history of civil rights boycotts\, and boycotts in response to Palestinian displacement under Israeli Occupation? \n    \nThe CMENAS Teach-in Town Hall will explore this vital moment in world history with experts and take stock of BDS\, now active for thirteen years. Meet our speakers:\n\nSusan Abulhawa\, author of Mornings in Jenin (2010) and The Blue Between Sky and Water (2015)\, poet\, political commentator\, human rights activist\, and founder of Playgrounds for Palestine\n\nTom Pessah\, Israeli sociologist and activist\, board member of Zochrot\n\nHuwaida Arraf\, Civil Rights Attorney and Co-founder of the International Solidarity Movement\, which was nominated twice for the Nobel Peace Prize\n\n    \nEveryone is welcome! \n    \nFunding Support: CMENAS Endowments\, Institute for the Humanities\, Department of Anthropology\, Arab and Muslim American Studies\, Department of American Culture\, the International Institute\, Conflict and Peace Initiative\, Colonialism\, Race\, and Sexualities Initiative (through IRWG)\, Middle Eastern Law Students Association (MELSA)\, Department of Women Studies\, and the College of LSA\n\n---\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

SUMMARY: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:CANCELLED [CMENAS Colloquium Series. “‘Warrants’ in Research: How to Deconstruct Cognitive Bias and Change the Conversation in Your Field\, with Consideration of DEI Issues”]
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Samer Ali\, CMENAS Director and Associate Professor of Arabic and Islamic Culture\, U-M Department of Middle Eastern Studies\n---\nThe 2018 CMENAS Colloquium Series theme\, “The Process of Discovery: How Scholars Write Books Today” will discuss how in popular media\, writing is fantastically presented as a process whereby inspiration—a muse— comes to the writer (or fails to). In this fantasy\, writers type fiendishly or crumple up one sheet after another. The reality is at once more complicated and humble than this. Come discover how scholars discover. The colloquium series will feature presentations from CMENAS faculty on their recent book projects and will explore the research process from start to finish. \n---\n\nLecture Abstract: \nIn the Craft of Research\, Booth et al point to “warrant” as the principle that connects reasons to claim. It’s what enables your reader to see the relevance of your reasoning. Today\, Prof. Ali will lead a discussion of the textbook Craft of Research\, focusing on warrants\, and how they might evince and reinforce biases (sexist\, racist\, or presentist assumptions)\, thus foreclosing certain discussions. By the same token\, you can deploy new warrants to revise and substantiate principles\, and in effect change the conversation in your field. Warrants are vital for diversifying discussions to include underrepresented researchers. \n\nSpeaker Bio:\nSamer Ali conducts research on Arabo-Islamic social life in the Middle Ages through the lens of literature\, arts\, and culture. He authored Arabic Literary Salons in the Islamic Middle Ages and now writes on the role of women in the Arabic literary tradition and rituals of scapegoating and redemption. He has been honored with seven awards from The Institute for Advanced Study in Berlin\, the American Institute of Maghrib Studies\, and Fulbright Association. \n\n---\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

SUMMARY:Other:Developmental Brown Bag:  It really does take a village: The role of neighborhood in the etiology of child antisocial behavior.
DESCRIPTION:There is now considerable evidence that neighborhood disadvantage predicts child antisocial behavior\, and that this effect may be causal\, at least to an extent.  However\, the mechanisms underlying these contextual influences on child behavior remain unclear.  In this talk\, I will examine gene-environment interplay as one key possibility\, evaluating how structural characteristics of the neighborhood shape the etiology of child antisocial behavior.  The studies to be presented employed a number of state-of-the-science sampling\, methodologic\, and analytic techniques.  Results provide compelling evidence regarding a key role for ‘bioecological gene-environment interactions’ and\, when considered alongside other evidence in the field\, point to a possible role for the ‘biological embedding’ of disadvantage.  Implications and future work will be discussed.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | A New QCD Facility at the M2 Beam Line of the CERN SPS
DESCRIPTION:Possibility to use high intensity secondary beams at the SPS M2 beam line in combination with the world’s largest polarized target\, liquid hydrogen\, liquid deuterium and various nuclear targets create a unique opportunity for universal experimental facility to study previously unexplored aspects  of meson and nucleon structure\, QCD dynamics and hadron spectroscopy. \n\nHigh intensity hadron (pion dominated) beams already made COMPASS the world leading facility for hadron spectroscopy and  hadron structure study through Drell-Yan production of di-muon pairs. High intensity muon beams\, previously used for unique semi-inclusive and exclusive hard scattering programs\, make possible proton radius measurement in muon-proton elastic scattering and and further development of polarized exclusive hard scattering program. \n   \nUpgrades of the M2 beam line resulting in high intensity RF-separated anti-proton- and kaon-beams would greatly expand the horizon of experimental possibilities at CERN: hadron spectroscopy with kaon beam\, studies of transverse momentum dependent quark structure for protons\, pions and kaons\, precise studies of nuclear effects and for the first time measurements of kaon quark-substructure. \n

SUMMARY:Presentation:UM Psychology Community Talk
DESCRIPTION:The Psychology of Germs\, Disease\, and Disgust.\n\nInfectious diseases and the pathogens that cause them have been a serious problem throughout human history\, with millions sickened and killed each year. In the modern world\, hygiene and vaccinations help us manage this threat\, but we all also possesses mental and physical defenses against germs. In this talk\, I will discuss the emerging thinking on a set of defensive strategies grounded in our psychology – emotions\, thought processes\, and actions collectively called the “behavioral immune system.” Feeling grossed out or avoidant when seeing spoiled food or sick people can help prevent infection\, but these reactions also negatively affect our interactions with people\, groups\, and environments that in reality pose no danger. Disease-related thinking also spills over into how we see the world more generally\, influencing aspects of our lives from cultural taboos to the products we buy. The psychology of germs\, disease\, and disgust may help us understand why.

SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Sam Walker\, Author of \"Captain Class\" A great leader is not what you think?! (Student-Athlete Event)
DESCRIPTION:Michigan Alumni Sam Walker will be visiting our university to talk about his book \"The Captain Class.\" CNBC\, The New York Times\, Amazon\, Sport Illustrated and others  described \"The Captian Class\" as \"one ofthe year's best business books.\" \n\nA GREAT LEADER IS NOT WHAT YOU THINK\nMost people believe that leadership is a God-given skill bestowed on thefew\; a combination of raw talent\, playmaking ability\, charisma\, dominance\, and emotional extroversion that stands out in a crowd. So when we become leaders\, we rely on what we’ve seen in the movies. We take the clutch shots\, show more emotion\, bark out orders\, stamp out dissent in the locker room\, and practice speeches in the mirror. Sam Walker’s research shows none of those things are required. Sometimes the best leader on ateam isn’t obvious to the outside world. In fact\, it might be the lastperson you’d expect. \n\nIf you attend this event\, you will receive a free copy of \"The Captain Class\"  and gain insight of the 7 researched doable behaviors needed to influence others.

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: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: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:Social Space Diffusion: Applications of a Latent Space Model to Diffusion with Uncertain Ties
DESCRIPTION:Social networks represent two different facets of social life: (1) stable paths for diffusion\, or the spread of something through a connected population\, and (2) random draws from an underlying social space\, which indicate the relative positions of the people in the network to one another. The dual nature of networks creates a challenge – if the observed network ties are a single random draw\, is it realistic to expect that diffusion only follows the observed network ties? This study takes a first step towards integrating these two perspectives by introducing a social space diffusion model. In the model\, network ties indicate positions in social space\, and diffusion occurs proportionally to distance in social space. Practically\, the simulation occurs in two parts. First\, positions are estimated using a statistical model (in this example\, a latent space model). Then\, second\, the predicted probabilities of a tie from that model – representing the distances in social space – or a series of networks drawn from those probabilities – representing routine churn in the network – are used as weights in a weighted averaging framework. Using longitudinal data from high school friendship networks\, I explore the properties of the model. I show that the model produces smoothed diffusion results\, which predict attitudes in future waves 10% better than a diffusion model using the observed network\, and up to 5% better than diffusion models using alternative\, non-model-based smoothing approaches.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | Resource Diversification and Resilience: The Bioarchaeology of Bronze Age Northwest China
DESCRIPTION:Northwest China experienced several marked transitions during the Bronze Age (~2000-1000 BCE)\, including climate change\, the spread of mobile pastoralism\, the rise of new technologies\, and increasing interregional interaction. Ancient human skeletons bear the embodied traces of these transitions\, and of the accompanying changes to human health and diet. This evidence\, when incorporated into a multidisciplinary archaeological analysis\, points to a patchwork of successful adaptive strategies leading to social-ecological resilience in the region. \n    \nElizabeth Berger is currently a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies at the University of Michigan. Her ongoing work in bioarchaeology focuses on ancient adaptation to climate change\, ancient human health\, and subsistence strategies in northwest China. She has also worked on archaeological human remains from central China\, investigating Warring States period migration and Ming dynasty foot binding. She earned her doctorate in Anthropology from the University of North Carolina in 2017. \n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:\"The Knowledge Illusion: Do You Know as Much as You Think You Know?\"
DESCRIPTION:Acquiring knowledge and understanding are central to making our way in the modern world. Some of us claim to be experts because we try to know a lot about one topic.\nMost of us are satisfied with knowing enough about some topics to get through the day. The book\, \"The Knowledge Illusion\"\, by two cognitive scientists\, Steven Sloman and Philip Fernbach\, explores why we are all under the illusion that we know more than we actually do.\nThey discuss how we think in groups\, with technology and about science and politics. They also make recommendations for how to cope with our limitations. We will read their accessible book across the six sessions. Humility and curiosity are the only prerequisites for the course.\nCraig Ramsay is a political scientist who taught for decades while coping with his own illusions of knowledge.\nThis Study Group for those 50 and over will meet Tuesdays 1:00 – 2:30 p.m. October 30 – December 11.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Chapter Workshop with Amanda Greene
DESCRIPTION:Please join the Modernist Studies Workshop for a dissertation chapter workshop with Amanda Greene (English Language and Literature) on \"Sousveillant Storytelling: The Situated Sense-Making of Mass Observation’s 'Subjective Cameras.'\"\n\nChapter abstract: Through readings of the British Mass-Observation Movement's publications\, practices\, and films between 1937-9\, this chapter redefines sousveillance as a habit of socially situated storytelling that is rooted in visual media imaginaries as opposed to a particular apparatus. Originally coined by Steve Mann to describe his pioneering experiments with wearable computing in the 1990s\, sousveillance refers to a “gaze from below” that can balance hierarchies between the population and the surveilling state. While sousveillance is usually considered dependent on particular networked digital technologies (like cell phone cameras that can capture instances of police brutality and share them on social media)\, Mass-Observation’s strange hybrid artistic/anthropologic media experiment decades earlier exemplifies how this practice functions in a broader range of contexts and\, above all\, in less technologically dependent ways. The movement's work affirms everyday visual practices as vehicles of empowered storytelling by which individuals can enter into larger political communities of dissensus\, and draws on contemporary interwar visual media forms as resources to enhance this vision. However\, the movement's initiatives aimed to teach the population to actively\, interpretively participate in their environment not by distributing devices\, but by embracing the affective and socially situated distortions of their own “subjective cameras.”  While this idealization of distorted narratives may seem dangerous in our current political landscape of \"fake news\,\" sousveillance brings individuals’ distortions into view not to create alternate realities but to recognize what Donna Haraway calls “situated knowledge” as the ethical center of individuals’ political agency within larger collectives.  \n\nPlease email Aaron Stone (stoneaa@umich.edu) to RSVP and receive a copy of Amanda's chapter draft.

SUMMARY:Other:Chemistry at the Intersection of Self-Assembly and Energy Conversion
DESCRIPTION:                                                                                                                                                \n                       \n                     Nature uses a complex array of chromophores\, optimally organized both spatially and electronically\, to carry out photoinduced energy and electron transfer from pigment molecules to a reaction center. The fundamental processes underpinning photosynthesis provide the basis for artificial solar conversion systems that include photovoltaic cells\, photoanodes and photocathode catalysts to generate electricity or fuels. It is the supramolecular arrangement of multiple chromophores that results in the emergent properties associated with natural light harvesting complexes\, including enhanced absorption\, efficient energy transfer between pigments\, and electron-transfer. We are interested in self-assembled discrete metal-organic assemblies containing multiple chromophores as functional models of supramolecular light harvesting architectures. Specifically\, we are actively designing systems to identify the optimal alignment\, spacing\, and electronic structure to enable directional EnT and photoredox chemistry while maximizing broadband absorption matched to the solar flux. The formation of structurally complex metal-organic polygons\, polyhedra\, and prisms (MOPs) is greatly facilitated by coordination-driven self-assembly methods which furnish them in single\, one-pot reactions. An ever-growing library of organic ligands (donors) and metal/organometallic complexes with substitutionally labile coordination sites (acceptors) serves as the basis for a suite of metallacycles and cages characterized by their well-defined internal cavities and predictable topologies. The rigid organic backbones that once served solely as structural elements have more recently been exploited for their ability to impart interesting photophysical properties to their parent MOPs. Strategies include tethering pendant fluorophores through covalent coupling chemistry and selecting inherently emissive building blocks\, with an emphasis on exploiting Ru\, Ir\, and Pt-based complexes.                            \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nTimothy Cook (University of Buffalo)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Measurement of the Permanent Electric Dipole Moment of ^{129}Xe Using ^3He Comagnetometery and SQUID Detection
DESCRIPTION:Permanent electric dipole moment (EDM) measurements of ^{129}Xe\, along with other diamagnetic systems and the neutron\, constrain beyond-the-standard-model hadronic CP-violating parameters. In the HeXeEDM experiment\, a new technique is used to measure the EDM of ^{129}Xe with a ^3He comagnetometer and has potential to improve the current limit by two orders of magnitude. ^3He and ^{129}Xe are polarized using spin-exchange optical pumping\, transferred to a measurement cell and then transported into a magnetically shielded room. The free precession of both species is detected in the presence of an applied 3 kV/cm electric field and a 2.6 muT magnetic field using SQUID magnetometers.    \n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Whitechapel Noise: Politics\, Sex and Religion in Yiddish Rhyme on the Streets of London’s East End 1884-1914
DESCRIPTION:This talk\, illustrated with song\, will examine the abundance of Yiddish kupletn (rhyming couplets) written by Jewish immigrant songwriters and poets in pre-World-War-I London. These protest hymns\, music-hall songs and satirical verse\, until now hidden in archives\, tell tales that expand and nuance our knowledge of immigrant history. As an accessible popular culture\, they tell these stories with humor\, intensity\, and passion. This talk will give an overview of these key ideas\, illustrating theoretical and historical points with engaging poetic and musical examples.\n\nImage: Jewish Museum\, London\n\nThere is both an accessible elevator and gender-neutral restroom on the first and second floor.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Author's Forum Presents: Technologies for Intuition: Cold War Circles and Telepathic Rays
DESCRIPTION:Alaina Lemon (professor of anthropology) and Karla Mallette (professor of Italian and Middle East studies) discuss Lemon's new book \"Technologies for Intuition: Cold War Circles and Telepathic Rays\,\" followed by Q & A.\n\nAbout the book:\nSince the Cold War\, Americans and Russians have together cultivated fascination with the workings and failures of communicative channels. Each accuses the other of media jamming and propaganda\, and each proclaims its own communication practices better for expression and creativity. Technologies for Intuition theorizes phaticity—the processes by which people make\, check\, discern\, or describe channels and contacts\, judging them weak or strong\, blocked or open. This historical ethnography of intuition juxtaposes telepathy experiments and theatrical empathy drills\, passing through settings where media and performance professionals encounter neophytes\, where locals open channels with foreigners\, and where skeptics of contact debate naifs. Tacking across geopolitical borders\, the book demonstrates how contact and channel shift in significance over time\, through events and political relations\, in social conflict\, and in conversation. The author suggests that Cold War preoccupations and strategies have marked theoretical models of communication and mediation\, even while infusing everyday\, practical technologies for intuition.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The University of Michigan Presents Lecture: Rachel Armstrong
DESCRIPTION:Rachel Armstrong is Professor of Experimental Architecture at the School of Architecture\, Planning and Landscape\, Newcastle University. She is a Rising Waters II Fellow with the Robert Rauschenberg Foundation (April-May 2016)\, TWOTY futurist 2015\, Fellow of the British Interplanetary Society\, a 2010 Senior TED Fellow and profiled in the RIBA Journal\, 2018. She is Director and founder of the Experimental Architecture Group (EAG) whose work has been published widely as well as exhibited and performed at the Venice Art and Architecture Biennales\, the Tallinn Architecture Biennale\, the Trondheim Art Biennale\, the Palais de Tokyo (Paris)\, the Institute of Advanced Architecture\, Catalonia (IAAC)\, Aarhus Kuntshal\, the University of the Underground (Amsterdam)\, The Gallatin School\, New York University\, Allenheads Contemporary Arts\, and Culture Lab at Newcastle University.\n\nHer work investigates a new approach to building materials called ‘living architecture\,’ which suggests it is possible for our buildings to share some of the properties of living systems. Collaboratively working across disciplines\, she builds and develops prototypes that couple the computational properties of the natural world with matter at far from equilibrium. She calls the synthesis that occurs between these systems and their inhabitants “living” architecture. \n\nShe is coordinator for the €3.2m Living Architecture project\, which is an ongoing collaboration of experts from the universities of Newcastle\, UK\, the West of England (UWE Bristol)\, Trento\, Italy\, the Spanish National Research Council in Madrid\, LIQUIFER Systems Group\, Vienna\, Austria and EXPLORA\, Venice\, Italy that began in April 2016 and runs to April 2019. It is envisioned as a next-generation\, selectively\, programmable bioreactor that is capable of extracting valuable resources from sunlight\, wastewater and air and in turn\, generating oxygen\, proteins and biomass. Conceived as a freestanding partition it is composed of bioreactor building blocks (microbial fuel cell\, algae bioreactor and a genetically modified processor)\, which are being developed as standardized building segments\, or bricks. Living Architecture uses the standard principles of both photo bioreactor and microbial fuel cell technologies\, which are adapted to and combined into a single\, sequential hybrid bioreactor system so they will work synergistically together to clean wastewater\, generate oxygen\, provide electrical power and generate useable biomass (fertilizer)\nCo-sponsor: University of Michigan Biosciences Initiative

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Healing Justice Workshop Series | #3
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! (with smooth Beats): electronic recording\, learning\, and sharing session with Sacramento Knoxx\nWorkshop by Aadizookaan\n\nNovember 6th: Herbs and Ceremony - how ritual can be used for personal and activist self care \nWorkshop by Adela Nieves Martinez of Healing By Choice!\n\nNovember 20th: Healing Arts through Movement and Native Dance\nWorkshop by Aadizookaan

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

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

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

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

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CREES Noon Lecture. Theater\, Sociability\, and Politics in Putin’s Russia
DESCRIPTION:The theater world in Russia is lively as ever\, with a range of styles and interests represented by innovative and original work. But that world is also under significant threat as the Russian state puts increasing pressure on theaters and especially directors. The substance of the great art of theater is communication\, respect\, reverence\, and an unflagging belief in humanity. Theater thrives on humanity the way flowers feed on soil\, sun\, and water. It in turn produces the conditions for humanity to grow. Theater produces and nurtures community and brings people together. In her lecture\, Irina Khutsieva will expound on the relationship between theater\, state and society in today's Russia. \n\nIrina Khutsieva is a stage director and acting instructor in Moscow\, Russia. Trained at “GITIS\,” the Russian Academy of Theatrical Art\, she has more than 30 years of experience in Russian theater. She now directs her own studio theater\, the Chamber Theater\, Moscow\, founded in 2004. Khutsieva has staged more than 50 plays in Russia\, Germany\, and the U.S. She has worked at one of Russia’s most distinguished theater academies – the Shchepkin Higher Theatre Institute\, associated with the State Academic Maly Theatre of Russia. She also has extensive experience teaching college drama majors. A specialist and practitioner of the Stanislavski Method\, she incorporates the principles and traditions of Russian psychological theater and has also developed her own staging and teaching methods. In recent years\, she has directed a major gala performance shown on Russian national TV and has run workshops for professional actors in regional towns throughout Russia. \n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to crees@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.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Brown Bag Seminars | Dark Matter and Fusion: Signals and Constraints from the Dark and the Light
DESCRIPTION:Over the past several years\, non-WIMP dark matter candidates have attracted a surge of interest in the particle physics community. In this two-part talk\, I will summarize the underlying physics motivation for (and observable consequences of) two such candidates\, which share the feature that they are bound states of more familiar constituents. The first part of the talk will examine the astrophysical implications of a dark fermion that can form two-body bound states. The second part of the talk will examine new constraints on the \"dibaryon\"\, a hypothetical QCD bound state of six light quarks. The common thread of the talk will be the unique signals of fusion within or into a dark matter sector.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Mapping the Underworld of Buried Utilities
DESCRIPTION:Records of the locations and properties of vast underground utility networks are incomplete\, inaccurate\, and many times unavailable. This lack of information of underground pipes poses a critical challenge to maintaining and upgrading underground infrastructure\, a grand engineering challenge outlined by the National Academy of Engineering (NAE). It is also a main reason for the over six million of utility interruptions every year that cause injuries\, fatalities\, property damages\, and environmental pollutions\, amounting to billions of dollars in loss. Although sensing methods such as ground penetrating radar (GPR) has been exploited and proven its promise\, it usage in urban environment is limited because of the complexity of the underworld and its reflection on the GPR signals and image signatures. We have created new methods to more accurately determine the location and dimension of underground pipes by fusing data from utility specifications and regulations and contextual cues\, termed as “virtual sensors”\, and GPR scans. Algorithms have been devised to extract image signatures from GPR radargrams to guide field robots in real-time\, extract spatial rules from text documents\, and integrating multiple sources of heterogeneous data. Research findings have been implemented as an autonomous robotic system with the capacity of adapting to complex spatial configurations of underground networks to generate accurate\, geospatial 3D pipe models. Research findings are expected to shift the paradigm of the current practice in mapping underground pipes.\nDr. Hubo Cai is an Associate Professor of Civil and Construction Engineering at Purdue University. He is the founding director of the Laboratory of Computer-Integrated Infrastructure Informatics (LCIII) and the codirector of the Discrete Event Simulation (DES) Laboratory.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Working Together to Achieve Detroit’s Future
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public.\n\nThe Ford School’s Michigan Politics and Policy class (PubPol 475/750) will be joined by Chase Cantrell\, Executive Director and Founder of Building Community Value for a discussion about the future of Detroit on Weds Oct 31\, 2:30pm.\n\nWe have moved this class session to the larger Ford School Annenberg Auditorium (1120) so this lecture can be open to the public -- we hope to see you there!\n\nWhen:               Wednesday\, October 31\, 2:30pm - 3:50pm\nWhere:              Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy\, 1120 Annenberg Auditorium\n                              735 S. State Street\, Ann Arbor\, MI 48109\n\nAbout the talk\nCivic actors in government\, media\, philanthropy\, and academia measure Detroit’s progress through data and reports. As the numbers rise and fall\, especially in this period of transition\, we increasingly ask ourselves will we ever see 'one Detroit for all of us?’ Flipping the economic development switch in a city that experienced over a half century of painful loss is an insufficient response to enduring physical and psychological trauma. How can our city begin to treat such collective trauma? We start by talking.\n\nChase L. Cantrell is the executive director and founder of Building Community Value\, a Detroit-based non-profit dedicated to implementing and facilitating real estate development projects in underserved Detroit neighborhoods. An alumnus of the University of Michigan Law School\, Chase specialized in real estate and corporate law and has facilitated corporate and real estate acquisitions\, sales\, and other complex transactions for clients of all sizes (from start-ups to Fortune 100 companies). Through Building Community Value\, and in collaboration with academic and community partners\, Chase seeks to be a catalyst for sustainable social and economic development that engages distressed communities in creating impactful\, resident-led change but\, more specifically\, that improves livability for all Detroiters. Chase is also currently a non-partisan candidate for the Detroit Charter Revision Commission.”\n\nThis class session and discussion is open to the public\, we hope to see you there.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MIPSE Seminar | Solving (Stellar) Flows: Methods\, Software\, and Results
DESCRIPTION:Understanding the interaction of convec-tion\, magnetic fields\, and rotation is essen-tial to a robust understanding of stellar magnetism. These flows are at extreme pa-rameter regimes that defy our largest su-percomputers. I will discuss a number of strategies we have developed to make pro-gress on these problems\, including the flexible PDE solver Dedalus. In particular\, I will discuss the development of tools for Direct Statistical Simulation\, a new strategy for studying anisotropic turbulent flows. I will discuss the application of these techniques to several important illustrative problems from astrophysical fluid dynamics.\n\nAbout the Speaker: Jeff Oishi is an Assistant Professor of Physics at Bates College in Lewiston\, ME\, where he leads a research group of undergraduates.  He is also Research Associate at the American Museum of Natural History. He was an un-dergraduate at Columbia and did his PhD at the University of Virginia. His re-search interests are in numerical methods for magnetohydrodynamics\, stability theory\, and turbulence. Prof. Oishi is a member of the Dadelus Project\, an open source framework for solving partial differential equations.\n\nThe seminar will be web-simulcast.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | Nonlinear Optics at the Frequency Scale of Thermal Fluctuations
DESCRIPTION:In this lecture\, I will discuss how coherent electromagnetic radiation at infrared and TeraHertz frequencies can be used to drive coherently and to large amplitudes collective excitations in solids. The nonlinear cooperative response is largely unexplored and can yield new types functional control. I will for example discuss experiments in which superconducting fluctuations can be amplified by light at temperatures higher than the thermodynamic transition temperature. I will also discuss how X-ray Free Electron Lasers are integral to this work\, and how they can be used to sample the dynamical evolution of crystal lattices and of other microscopic parameters in time.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IOE 899 Seminar: Rachel Cummings\, Georgia Institute of Technology
DESCRIPTION:Title: \"Differential Privacy for Growing Databases\"\n\nAbstract:\nWe study the design of differentially private algorithms for adaptive analysis of dynamically growing databases\, where a database accumulates new data entries while the analysis is ongoing. We provide a collection of tools for machine learning and other types of data analysis that guarantee differential privacy and accuracy as the underlying databases grow arbitrarily large. We give both a general technique and a specific algorithm for adaptive analysis of dynamically growing databases. Our general technique is illustrated by two algorithms that schedule black box access to some algorithm that operates on a fixed database to generically transform private and accurate algorithms for static databases into private and accurate algorithms for dynamically growing databases. These results show that almost any private and accurate algorithm can be rerun at appropriate points of data growth with minimal loss of accuracy\, even when data growth is unbounded. Our specific algorithm directly adapts the private multiplicative weights algorithm to the dynamic setting\, maintaining the accuracy guarantee of the static setting through unbounded data growth. Along the way\, we develop extensions of several other differentially private algorithms to the dynamic setting\, which may be of independent interest for future work on the design of differentially private algorithms for growing databases. (Joint work with Sara Krehbiel\, Kevin Lai\, and Uthaipon Tantipongpipat.)\n\nBio:\nDr. Rachel Cummings is an Assistant Professor of Industrial and Systems Engineering and Computer Science (by courtesy) at Georgia Tech. Her research interests lie primarily in data privacy\, with connections to machine learning\, algorithmic economics\, optimization\, statistics\, and information theory. Dr. Cummings received her PhD. in Computing and Mathematical Sciences from the California Institute of Technology\, her M.S. in Computer Science from Northwestern University\, and her B.A. in Mathematics and Economics from the University of Southern California. She is the recipient of a Simons-Berkeley Research Fellowship in Data Privacy\, the ACM SIGecom Doctoral Dissertation Honorable Mention\, the Amori Doctoral Prize in Computing and Mathematical Sciences\, and the Best Paper Award at the 2014 International Symposium on Distributed Computing

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:Lecture / Discussion:\"Resting-state fMRI connectivity and brain co-activations\"
DESCRIPTION:Resting-state functional Magnetic Resonance Image (rsfMRI) signal correlations are widely used for charting functional brain connectivity in healthy and diseased brains\, and has revolutionized our understanding of the organization of large-scale brain networks and their abnormalities in various brain diseases. However\, the neurophysiological basis underlying the images-based measures of brain connectivity/dynamics remains largely elusive. In this seminar\, I describe multiple research projects that promoted the mechanistic understanding of the resting-state fMRI connectivity/dynamics. Combining multi-modal recordings from animals and humans under various brain conditions\, these projects provide new insight into the dynamic nature of the resting-state connectivity\, and reveal the electrophysiological correlates and behavioral relevance of global non-specific components of rsfMRI correlations.\n\nXiao Liu\, Ph.D.\, is a professor in the department of Biomedical Engineering at Penn State University.

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

SUMMARY:Exhibition: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:LOOKING BEYOND COMPREHENSIVE IMMIGRATION REFORM: A NEW IMMIGRATION POLITICS
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Chin received her Ph.D. from U.C. Berkeley in 1999 and a B.A. and M.A. from the University of Washington. She is a scholar of modern Europe with particular expertise in immigration and human mobility\; race and ethnicity\; and colonialism and post-colonialism.  Her work addresses some of the most pressing issues in modern European history\, specifically the massive socio-cultural effects of postwar labor migration on European nations and their struggles to come to grips with the radical demographic diversity it produced.\n\nHow did anti-Muslim sentiment\, xenophobia\, and populism become major concerns for European society? What are the background factors driving this political upheaval in Europe? How\, in other words\, did Europe become multicultural and what have been the larger social and political effects of this dramatic demographic transformation?  Can Europe structurally and financially afford to allow large numbers of immigrants to settle and still retain its culture and current liberal policies amid these changes?\n\nThis is the second in a series of six weekly lectures. The subject is immigration. The next lecture will be on November 8. The title is THE MYTH OF THE LINE.

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.

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:Presentation:PSC and GFP Brown Bags
DESCRIPTION:Title: Promoting Respect as a Solution to Workplace Sexual Harassment\n\nAbstract: Despite\, organizational policies aimed at sexual harassment prevention\, harassing behaviors remain pervasive at work. Scholars have noted that anti-harassment policies may not be effective because they often focus heavily on unwanted sexual pursuit and sexual coercion and do little to tackle the broader climate of hostility and disrespect that sets the stage for sexual harassment. Thus\, the present study examines whether anti-harassment efforts are more effective at reducing both sexual and hostile forms of harassment\, for men and women\, if expanded to emphasize positive\, prosocial norms of respect. In a large military sample\, we tested whether leader respect promotion uniquely predicted sexual advance harassment and gender harassment. In addition\, we examined whether leader respect promotion moderates the relationship between leader harassment prevention behaviors (a previously established predictor) and the frequency of sexual advance and gender harassment. We found that leader respect promotion negatively predicted gender harassment and was not related to sexual advance harassment\, for both men and women. In addition\, leader respect promotion moderated the relationship between harassment prevention behaviors and gender harassment and sexual advance harassment (except for men) such that harassment was lowest when leaders promoted respect and prevented harassment. These results suggest that while traditional harassment prevention efforts remain important for deterring sexual harassment\, a respectful climate is also an effective tool against sexual harassment.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series | Jesus Loves Japan: Pentecostal Christianity among Nikkei “Return Migrants” from Brazil
DESCRIPTION:Today\, there are roughly 186\,000 Brazilian nationals living in Japan\, the majority of whom are of Japanese descent. While they benefit from the visa policy that confers the right to settlement virtually as a right of blood\, they often feel discriminated in their supposed ancestral homeland. In this social context\, many have been converting to Pentecostalism\, which has exploded in Latin America since the 1970s. Based on a yearlong fieldwork conducted in Toyota\, Japan\, this lecture tells a story about the Nikkei Brazilians who envision Pentecostalism as the “third culture” that can help them transcend ethno-national boundaries. \n    \nSuma Ikeuchi studies the intersection of religion\, diaspora\, and citizenship with a focus on Global Japan. After obtaining her PhD in Anthropology from Emory University in 2016\, she taught Religious Studies at the University of Alabama before joining the Department of Liberal Arts at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2018. \n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to bkinzer@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LSI Seminar Series: David Sherwood\, Ph.D.\, Duke University
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nBasement membranes are an ancient form of extracellular matrix that assemble as thin\, dense sheets that underlie most tissues. Basement membranes regulate numerous cellular and tissue functions\, and basement membrane dysregulation is a hallmark of many cancers and a driver of tumor progression. Despite their importance\, we know little about how basement membranes are uniquely constructed\, how they grow\, how they turnover\, and how they regulate so many cell and tissue properties.\n\nC. elegans is a powerful model to understand basement membrane function\, as it has single genes encoding most basement membrane matrix components and receptors. We have used CRISPR/Cas-9 genome editing to create a basement membrane toolkit\, where we have knocked genes encoding fluorescent proteins into all major basement membrane matrix components (18 genes) and receptors (13 genes). I will present a brief overview of how we are using the basement membrane toolkit to elucidate how basement membranes are constructed\, how they grow\, and the dynamic nature of basement membranes\, including diverse turnover rates of basement membrane components (seconds to hours). Finally\, I will discuss how the toolkit is revealing specialized\, non-sheet functions for basement membrane proteins\, such as linking neighboring tissues together and constructing stem cell niches.\n\nAbout the Speaker:\nDavid Sherwood\, Ph.D.\, grew up in Champaign\, Illinois\, and spent summers backpacking in the Wind River Range of Wyoming. He graduated from Illinois Wesleyan University (with a year in Durham\, England) in 1990. He received his Ph.D. in the lab of David McClay\, Ph.D.\, from Duke University Department of Biology in 1997\, where his thesis work identified and determined the function of the sea urchin Notch receptor. Dave carried out his postdoctoral work in the lab of Paul Sternberg\, Ph.D. at the California Institute of Technology\, where he was trained in C. elegans genetics and cell biology. He joined the faculty at Duke University in 2005\, where he is now a Professor of Biology\, Co-Director of the Regeneration Next Initiative for Regenerative Biology\, Director of the Development and Stem Cell Biology Program\, and Co-Director of the Embryology Course in at the Marine Biological Laboratory in Woods Hole\, Massachusetts. His research focuses on elucidating cell-extracellular matrix interactions that occur during cell invasion\, stem cell niche formation\, and tissue formation\, growth and regeneration.\n\nBoxed lunch will be provided.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Behaviorally Stable Vehicle Platooning for Energy Savings
DESCRIPTION:A cooperative vehicle platoon is a set of vehicles driving together with low in-vehicle distance enabled by the connected and automated vehicle technology. One of the major benefits of vehicle platooning is energy savings due to air drag reduction. However\, as vehicles at different positions in a platoon save differently from the platooning\, e.g.\, the lead vehicles may save little\, some drivers or owners of vehicles may not be willing to join or stay in the platoon even if they are advised to do so\, yielding behaviorally unstable platoons. The instability further lead to chaos in traffic flow\, which is likely to bring unnecessary traffic congestions. As such behavioral side of the problem has been drawn little attention in literature\, this study intends to fill this void by focusing on the drivers and owners’ economic consideration of platooning. We envision a freeway system where vehicles are capable of platooning but each platoon has limited size. A novel utility function is proposed to measure a vehicle’s benefit in platooning. Based on that\, a mathematical programming model is established to find the optimal platoon formation that specifies which vehicles should be platooned together and their platoon speeds as well as positions to achieve the maximum system benefit. A benefit allocation mechanism\, either charges or compensates the vehicles\, is then created to incentivize them to form and maintain the desired platoon formation. The model framework is further extended to the setting with an environmental concern\, where the proposed mechanism has been shown to benefit not only the vehicles\, but also the whole society by bringing greater reductions on traffic emissions.\n\nXiaotong Sun is a PhD student in the Civil and Environmental Engineering Department.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:A War Remembered: Biafra at 50
DESCRIPTION:By some estimates\, the Nigerian Civil War was the greatest catastrophe ever to have occurred in Africa.   Over the June\, 1967 to January\, 1970 period\, the conflict may have claimed as many as two million lives.  This presentation will be delivered by a former relief officer of the International Committee of the Red Cross who participated in the Biafra relief action over the May to October\, 1969 period as an entry-level  logistics worker\, and from November 1969 to July 1970 as a “UN Forward Observer” assigned to the Third Division of the Nigerian Army.    The presentation outlines causes and consequences of the conflict\, procedures followed by the relief action\, and examples of strategies that failed to have their intended impact.  Lessons from Biafra attest to the value of implementation science in crisis situations.  \n \nDr. James Phillips is currently Professor\, Population and Family Health\, Heilbrunn Department of Population and Family Health\, Mailman School of Public Health where he teaches demography and directs research on health systems development in Africa. He has a Ph.D. in Sociology/Demography from the University of Michigan.\n\nA reception will follow the event.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AE 585 Graduate Seminar Series - Interdisciplinary Aeronautics Studies: from UAVs to Future Mission-Adaptive Air Vehicles
DESCRIPTION:Weihua Su\, Associate Professor\, Department of Aerospace Engineering and Mechanics\, The University of Alabama\n\nThe structural and aerodynamic optimization of aircraft planforms usually results in a highly flexible wing design\, which undergoes large deformation when subject to normal operating loads\, exhibiting a geometrically nonlinear behavior. This talk starts from a brief introduction on low-order aeroelastic modeling approaches for flexible aircraft in free flight. Furthermore\, recent advancements in digital composite materials\, as well as micro/nano sensor and actuator technologies have made in-flight adaptive wing/aircraft morphing a reachable goal and may open new design degrees of freedom when developing future green air vehicles with increased safety assurance and flight performance. In this talk\, interdisciplinary research on next-generation mission-adaptive airplanes is also discussed\, which is beyond the conventional realm of aeroelastic research and encompasses emerging technologies\, such as advanced materials and structures\, multi-objective design and optimization\, and optimal flight control and performance. Some recent studies on mission-adaptive air vehicles conducted by the speaker are presented.\n\nAbout the Speaker...\n\nDr. Weihua Su is currently an Associate Professor of the Department of Aerospace Engineering and Mechanics at the University of Alabama. He earned his B.S. (2000) and M.S. (2002) degrees in Aerospace Engineering from Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics (BUAA)\, China\, and his Ph.D. (2008) degree in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Michigan (Go Blue!). Dr. Su’s research interests include nonlinear aeroelasticity and control synthesis of flexible mission-adaptive aircraft with adaptive multifunctional structures and sensing technologies\, as well as dynamics and control of flexible launch vehicles. His research has been funded by NASA Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate (ARMD)\, NASA Ames Research Center\, and NASA Kennedy Space Center. Dr. Su is a senior member of AIAA and an elected\nmember of the AIAA Structural Dynamics Technical Committee. He is also an elected member of the ASME Aerospace Division Structures and Materials Technical Committee.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Brent Hayes Edwards Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Brent Hayes Edwards (Columbia) will present his digital restoration\, from the original 16mm reels\, of the legendary short film Sweet Willie Rollbar’s Orientation. Featuring an original soundtrack by saxophonist Julius Hemphill\, the film was made in the spring of 1972 by Hemphill\, the poet K. Curtis Lyle\, the actor Malinke Elliott\, and other members of the Black Artists’ Group of St. Louis. An astonishing document of the post-Black Arts period\, the film includes a series of fragmented\, surreal “trickster tale” vignettes set in the detritus of the St. Louis inner city. In his keynote directly following the screening\, Edwards will place the film in the context of the Black Artists’ Group\, and more broadly in relation to other black experiments in multimedia aesthetics in the early 1970s.\n\n\nBrent Edwards is a Professor in the Department of English and Comparative Literature at Columbia University\, where he is also affiliated with the Center for Jazz Studies and the Institute for Comparative Literature and Society. He is also the Director of the Scholars-in-Residence Program at the Schomburg Center of the New York Public Library. His books include The Practice of Diaspora: Literature\, Translation\, and the Rise of Black Internationalism (Harvard University Press\, 2003)\, which was awarded the John Hope Franklin Prize of the American Studies Association\, the Gilbert Chinard Prize of the Society for French Historical Studies\, and runner-up for the James Russell Lowell Prize of the Modern Language Association\; the co-edited essay collection Uptown Conversation: The New Jazz Studies (Columbia University Press\, 2004)\; and scholarly editions of classic works by W. E. B. Du Bois\, Frederick Douglass\, and Joseph Conrad. Edwards was the co-editor of the journal Social Text from 2001-2011\, and served as the Harlem Renaissance period editor for the Third Edition of the Norton Anthology of African American Literature (2014). \n\nEdwards published three books in 2017: a scholarly edition (in collaboration with Jean-Christophe Cloutier) of Claude McKay’s long-lost novel\, Amiable with Big Teeth (Penguin Classics)\; Edwards’s translation of Michel Leiris’s monumental 1934 Phantom Africa (Seagull Books)\, and Edwards’s own monograph Epistrophies: Jazz and the Literary Imagination (Harvard University Press). Edwards is currently at work on three different projects. First\, he is completing a book called “Black Radicalism and the Archive” (based on the Du Bois Lectures he presented at Harvard in 2015) about the collecting activities of black political activists\, artists\, and intellectuals including Arturo Schomburg\, Hubert Harrison\, Ada “Bricktop” Smith\, Alexander Gumby\, and C. L. R. James. In another long-term project\, Edwards is working on a book-length cultural history of the downtown New York “loft jazz” scene in New York in the 1970s\, when musicians such as Ornette Coleman\, Sam Rivers\, Rashied Ali\, and Joe Lee Wilson opened their own performance spaces in SoHo\, NoHo and the East Village. And finally\, Edwards is writing another study called “Art of the Lecture” (about lectures as a genre combining pedagogy and performance)\, a book project he began during his tenure as a 2015 Guggenheim Fellow.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Communication and Media Speaker Series
DESCRIPTION:The health system of the United States (US) has long exhibited wide disparities in health and health care. Although the government has set increasingly ambitious goals to reduce health disparities\, overall progress has been rather modest\, and race and ethnicity remain as significant predictors of health disparities in the US. Transformative developments in information and communication technology (ICT) may offer opportunities to reduce minority health disparities. However\, as exemplified by the concept of digital divide\, the current context in which ICTs are being deployed is already characterized by inequalities for minority populations.  Several recent studies report that mobile communication technology may serve as a way to overcome the digital divide and reach minority populations effectively. This talk describes an intervention study of the University of Hawaii Cancer Center and the University of Guam to use mobile technology to reduce cervical cancer screening disparity among Chuukese and Marshallese women\, a recent migrant group from the United States Affiliated Pacific Islands who suffer from high and unequal burden of chronic and infectious diseases.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Development Seminar
DESCRIPTION:A New Engel on the Gains from Trade\n\nMeasuring the gains from trade and their distribution is challenging. Recent empirical contributions have addressed this challenge by drawing on rich and newly available sources of microdata to measure changes in household nominal incomes and price indices. While such data have become available for some components of household welfare\, and for some locations and periods\, they are typically not available for the entire consumption basket. In this paper\, we propose and implement an alternative approach that uses rich\, but widely available\, expenditure survey microdata to estimate theory-consistent changes in income-group specific price indices and welfare. Our approach builds on existing work that uses linear Engel curves and changes in expenditure on income-elastic goods to infer unobserved real incomes. A major shortcoming of this approach is that while based on non-homothetic preferences\, the price indices it recovers are homothetic and hence are neither theory consistent nor suitable for distributional analysis when relative prices are changing. To make progress\, we show that we can recover changes in income-specific price indices and welfare from horizontal shifts in Engel curves if preferences are quasi-separable (Gorman\, 1970\; 1976) and we focus on what we term “relative Engel curves”. Our approach is flexible enough to allow for the highly non-linear Engel curves we document in the data\, and for non-parametric estimation at each point of the income distribution. We first implement this approach to estimate changes in cost of living and household welfare using Indian microdata. We then revisit the impacts of India’s trade reforms across regions.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Bob Kramer: At the Edge
DESCRIPTION:Bob Kramer is a master bladesmith\, widely considered to be the greatest American knifesmith working today\, and will share his relentless quest to forge the perfect knife. His love of the knife as functional form famously began when he worked as a cook at Four Seasons Olympic Hotel in Seattle when he was an oceanography student at the University of Washington. Kramer went on to become a graduate of the American Bladesmith Society in Arkansas\, where he received special recognition as a “master bladesmith” in 1997. In 2016\, the Bellevue Arts Museum in Washington state included a handmade blade by Kramer in BAM Biennial\, a juried exhibition focusing on the work of established and emerging artists\, craftspeople\, and designers living and working in the state. Kramer knives are especially known for their fine Damascus steel patterns\, exotic wood handles\, and “heirloom-quality” finishing. Since 2017\, Kramer has been creating handmade knives for auction only from his studio in Olympia\, Washington.\n\nSupported by Design Core Detroit.

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: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:Presentation:Michigan Neuroimaging Initiative:  Thinking About Individual Differences in fMRI: The Role of PCA and Other Latent Space Methods
DESCRIPTION:A major goal for fMRI research is to figure out how people's brains differ in ways relevant to some phenotype of interest (e.g.\, disorder status). But there are serious challenges because the brain has tens of thousands of voxels (or connections) and each is measured with substantial noise. Our aim in this meeting is to introduce a PCA-based method we have developed\, called Brain Basis Set\, for predicting phenotypes of interest. We will also discuss some theoretical reasons why PCA-type methods have advantages over alternatives for individual differences fMRI research.

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

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Manufacturing Research Seminar Series: Computer Numeric Control (CNC) as a Cloud Service: Opportunities and Challenges
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nControl as a Service (CaaS) is an emerging paradigm where low-level control of a machine (e.g.\, CNC) is moved from a local computer on the machine to a remote computer in the cloud\, from where it is provided to the machine as an on-demand service over the internet. A machine with access to CaaS can\, therefore\, leverage the vast computational resources available in the cloud to run advanced control algorithms that boost its performance at low cost. CaaS also facilitates easy upgrades to the control system of a machine and enables it to become more “intelligent” by leveraging data sharing and analytics. However\, CaaS raises a critical question of how to safely and reliably perform (hard) real-time control of a machine over unreliable internet connections. The field of Networked Control Systems has studied this problem for decades but has focused heavily on feedback control and stability. Conversely\, CaaS is open to exploiting the immense benefits of feedforward control and techniques used by video streaming services like Netflix to deliver content satisfactorily over the internet. Is it trivial or naïve to control a powerful manufacturing machine with inertia as one would a smart phone streaming a Netflix movie? What about increased exposure to cyber threats? I will share my thoughts on these questions along with some early results gathered on a 3D printer\, and I am curious to hear your thoughts.\n\nBio\nChinedum Okwudire is an Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering and\, starting January 2019\, the Associate Chair for Integrative Systems and Design (ISD) at the University of Michigan. Prior to joining Michigan\, he was the mechatronic systems optimization team leader at DMG Mori USA. His research is focused on exploiting knowledge at the intersection of machine design\, control and\, more-recently\, computer science\, to boost the performance of automation systems at low cost. Chinedum has received a number of awards including the CAREER Award from the National Science Foundation\; the Young Investigator Award from the International Symposium on Flexible Automation\; the Outstanding Young Manufacturing Engineer Award from the Society of Manufacturing Engineers\; the Ralph Teetor Educational Award from SAE International\; the Department Achievement Award from the Mechanical Engineering Department\, University of Michigan\; and the Russell Severance Springer Visiting Professorship from UC Berkeley. He has co-authored a number best paper award winning papers at Precision Engineering and Dynamic Systems and Control Conferences. His recent work on boosting the speed of 3D printers at low cost through feedforward vibration compensation has been featured internationally in popular news media\, including NASA Tech Briefs and Discovery Channel Canada.

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:Statistics Department Seminar Series: Jun Zhang\, Professor\, Departments of Psychology and Mathematics\, University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Information Geometry is the differential geometric study of the manifold of probability models\, where each probability distribution is just a point on the manifold. Instead of using metric for measuring distances on such manifolds\, these applications often use “divergence functions” for measuring proximity of two points (that do not impose symmetry and triangular inequality)\, for instance Kullback-Leibler divergence\, Bregman divergence\, f-divergence\, etc. Divergence functions are tied to generalized entropy (for instance\, Tsallis entropy\, Renyi entropy\, phi-entropy) and cross-entropy functions widely used in machine learning and information sciences. After a brief introduction to IG\, I illustrate the geometry of maximum entropy inference and exponential family. I then introduce a general form of entropy/cross-entropy/divergence function\, and show how the geometry of the underlying probability manifold (deformed exponential family) reveals an “escort statistics” that is hidden from the standard exponential family.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Dance Modern Lab Master Class Series: Marly Spieser-Schneider
DESCRIPTION:SMTD Department of Dance alumna Marley Spieser-Schneider is\, among many things\, a dance artist who currently teaches\, choreographs\, performs\, and experiments in various locations\, primarily Vermont\, New York\, and Michigan.  As usual\, she is constantly embarking on a multitude of projects. At the moment she is working on an evening-length collaborative work with Avi Waring and Paul Besaw\, a duet work with Trina Mannino\, a solo show titled Mantra.Math.Marrow\, and a series of ongoing projects with various multimedia artists\, including Ona Schneider and Jamie Killen. In short\, she seeks to connect with people and engage in collaborative processes that inspire creative problem solving and open-minded investigation.\n\n\nEach Modern Lab session features a different guest artist teaching a master class and sections from their repertory. This panorama of the contemporary dance field is presented to broaden the students’ awareness of potential career possibilities. Each guest artist conducts a 30-minute technique class/warm-up and then teaches repertory that is performed by the class. In the final 15 minutes\, faculty coordinator Bill De Young conducts a Q & A with each artist\, discussing their career\; their recommendations for transitioning from student to professional\, and what they look for when they audition dancers for their projects.\n\nThis event supported in part by the EXCEL Lab.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Exhibition Tour: Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a light lunch and an exhibition tour of Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory & Desire with curator Srimoyee Mitra. This conversation will be followed by refreshments and is part of the Victors for Michigan Campaign Celebration weekend.\n\nHave We Met: Dialogues on Memory and Desire draws inspiration from Ann Arbor’s legacy of social movements (Anti-War Movement\, Civil Rights Movements) and experimental art practices (The Once Group) from the late-1950s to the 1970s as its point of departure. It brings together archival materials and reproductions from the University of Michigan’s Labadie Collection and the Bentley Library in conjunction with radical artworks by diverse\, multi-generational artists and designers whose works are deeply influenced by the ideas of freedom and self-determination\; re-writing the canonical accounts of history\; and building contemporary culture and solidarity through collective action.\n\nAt a time when the idea of citizenship in the United States is being deeply challenged and redefined through horrific occurrences of gun violence and police brutality towards racialized and queer civilians and refugees\, this exhibition asks what role art institutions can play in building inclusive and vibrant creative spaces the 21st Century. Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire retraces and learns from models of collectivity and organizing mobilized by artists\, designers\, and cultural producers in the past and present as a lens to understand the contemporary moment and re-imagine the future.  It explores the complex relationships and at times overlapping and contested concerns between contemporary art\, design\, and social justice that continually influence and inform one another.\n\nArtists: Rudolf Baranik\, Stephanie Dinkins\, Emory Douglas\, Brendan Fernandes\, Chitra Ganesh\, Carole Harris\, Maren Hassinger\, Al Loving\, Josh MacPhee\, Native Art Department International\, Michele Oka Doner\, Yoko Ono\, Kameelah Janan Rasheed\, Martha Rosler\, Buster Simpson\, Gregory Sholette\, Leni Sinclair\, Stephanie Syjuco\, Graem Whyte\, and Zafos Xagoraris.\n\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra. \n\nPlease RSVP to reserve your place for this free event: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/lunchtime-exhibition-tour-have-we-met-dialogues-on-memory-and-desire-tickets-49848502212

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IOE 836 Seminar: John W. Gosbee\, MD\, MS
DESCRIPTION:Bio: John Gosbee\, MD\, MS teaches human factors engineering (HFE) and patient safety at the University of Michigan Departments of Internal Medicine and Biomedical Engineering. He leads development of patient safety curriculum for several medical and surgical residencies. He teaches HFE for several BME design courses\, including capstone design courses\, observation course\, and regulatory science. He also provides HFE consultation to UM research projects that involve new device design (e.g.\, teleophthalmology). He has been visiting professor at dozens of universities\, including Penn\, Johns Hopkins\, and Yale University. He has received two national awards for patient safety design (ISMP’s “Cheers Award” and AAMI’s “Career Achievement Award”. Among dozens of other publications\, he edited and co-wrote the book\, Using Human Factors Engineering to Improve Patient Safety. Previously\, Dr Gosbee worked at Department of Veterans Affairs - National Center for Patient Safety\, Assistant Professor at Michigan State University\, and NASA on development of space-based medical facilities.\n\nAbstract: Dr. Gosbee will present the theory and method behind teaching human factors engineering to learners at University of Michigan (and other venues). FDA and the marketplace expect that medical device design process will include human factors engineering (HFE). He will share lessons learned when teaching BME students about HFE\, including usability testing and IEC standards during their capstone design project.\n\nACGME (residency program oversight group) now requires all residency programs will teach analysis of actual safety events to all residents. Many of these safety events involve devices and software - which require application of HFE concepts\, standards\, or methods. He will share lessons of teaching residents about using usability testing to analyze the safety issue (e.g.\, ultrasound machine design) and evaluate proposed redesigns (e.g.\, ECG machine interface).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AE285 Undergraduate Seminar Series - Innovation 101: How to Build Revolutionary Technologies
DESCRIPTION:The race to find and develop the next revolutionary technology is ever-accelerating. Everyone claims to have a \"secret innovation sauce\" that gives them an advantage over their competitors. In some cases\, this is just for show\; in other cases\, it actually does foster disruptive innovation. This seminar will examine the pursuit of revolutionary technology development and disruptive innovation\, focusing on the fundamentals of the innovation process and how to create an environment where these ideas will flourish and take off to unprecedented heights. We will also consider the similarities between historically prestigious innovation factories\, like the Lockheed Martin Skunk Works\, and modern high-tech startups - do they follow a similar set of operating principles? How do you foster a culture where team members think vigorously outside the box to invent the impossible?

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Patchwork Leviathan: How Pockets of Bureaucratic Governance Flourish within Institutionally Diverse Developing States
DESCRIPTION:Within seemingly weak states\, exceptionally effective subunits lie hidden. These high-performing niches exhibit organizational characteristics distinct from poor-performing peer organizations\, but also distinct from high-functioning organizations in Western countries. This article develops the concept of interstitial bureaucracy to explain how and why unusually high-performing state organizations in developing countries invert canonical features of Weberian bureaucracy. Interstices are distinct-yet-embedded subsystems characterized by practices inconsistent with those of the dominant institution. This interstitial position poses particular challenges and requires unique solutions. Interstices cluster together scarce proto-bureaucratic resources to cultivate durable distinction from the status quo\, while managing disruptions arising from interdependencies with the wider neopatrimonial field. I propose a framework for how bureaucratic interstices respond to those challenges\, generalizing from organizational comparisons within the Ghanaian state and abbreviated historical comparison cases from the nineteenth-century United States\, early-twentieth-century China\, mid-twentieth-century Kenya\, and early-twenty-first-century Nigeria.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:My Butch Career: A Memoir
DESCRIPTION:Join LGQRI in celebrating Esther Newton’s forthcoming memoir. \n\nDuring her difficult childhood\, Esther Newton recalls that she “became an anti-girl\, a girl refusenik\, caught between genders\,” and that her “child body was a strong and capable instrument stuffed into the word ‘girl.’” Later\, in early adulthood\, as she was on her way to becoming a trailblazing figure in gay and lesbian studies\, she “had already chosen higher education over the strongest passion in my life\, my love for women\, because the two seemed incompatible.”\n\nIn her new memoir\, Newton tells the compelling\, disarming\, and at times sexy story of her struggle to write\, teach\, and find love\, all while coming to terms with her identity during a particularly intense time of homophobic persecution in the twentieth century.\n\nAffecting and immediate\, \"My Butch Career\" is a story of a gender outlaw in the making\, an invaluable account of a beloved and influential figure in LGBT history\, and a powerful reminder of only how recently it has been possible to be an openly queer academic.\n\nSPEAKER BIO:  \nEsther Newton\, one of the pioneers of gay and lesbian studies\, is formerly Term Professor of Women's Studies at the University of Michigan and Professor of Anthropology at Purchase College\, State University of New York. She is the author of several books\, including \"Margaret Mead Made Me Gay: Personal Essays\, Public Ideas\" and \"Cherry Grove\, Fire Island: Sixty Years in America's First Gay and Lesbian Town\,\" both published by Duke University Press\, as well as the groundbreaking \"Mother Camp: Female Impersonators in America.\"\n\nEvent Accessibility: \nRamp and elevator access at the E. Washington Street entrance (by loading dock). Accessible restrooms on south end of Lane Hall\, on each floor of the building. Gender neutral restroom on first floor.

SUMMARY:Presentation:On Taking Tests as a Learning Activity: Comprehension\, Concept Maps\, and Multiple Choice Quizzes
DESCRIPTION:The impact of retrieval practice\, its underlying mechanisms\, and the boundary conditions on its effective deployment have become topics of high interest in both basic and applied studies of academically-relevant learning. Results from a collaboration involving laboratory data collection at Michigan State University and Kalamazoo College and classroom data collection at Albion College show (a) comprehension of studied material is needed to gain the full benefits of retrieval practice on subsequent remembering\, (b) when classroom topics are more difficult making comprehension a greater challenge\, concept mapping becomes more effective than other retrieval-practice tools at producing potentially transferrable knowledge\, but (c) better remembering does not in and of itself guarantee better transfer and application — you’ve got to remember the right material at the right time and realize its relevance.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Unsustainable Pharmaceutical Prices and Potential Solutions
DESCRIPTION:The annual U.S. market for prescription drugs is more than $500 billion\, representing almost 17% of all health care expenditures\, and it is rising at an unsustainable rate. In 2017\, the average American spent $1\,100 per year on medications. It is\, therefore\, no wonder that the public and elected officials are fixated on understanding the factors leading to high prices and forging workable policy solutions. Dr. Sean Sullivan\, a health economist and expert on drug pricing\, will discuss the many reasons why prescription drugs cost so much in the US and the options to address the problem.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: An Organic Geochemical Perspective on Peatlands and Paleoclimate
DESCRIPTION:Peat deposits are important archives that can be used to reconstruct continental paleoenvironmental histories. Although they cover only 3% of the global land area\, they store 30% of global soil organic carbon. They constitute an accumulation of the remains of mosses and vascular plants that have lived and died in marshy settings. The moist environments encourage growth of the plants and retard decomposition of their remains to produce thick accumulations of organic-rich material that can be studied for high resolution paleoenvironmental reconstructions. The plant remains are deposited where the plants lived and hence provide location-specific evidence of past environmental conditions. Today’s presentation will summarize the climate sensitivity of peat deposition\, illustrate applications of a few organic geochemical proxies to peat paleoclimate reconstructions\, and ponder the place of peatlands in glacial-interglacial changes in the global carbon cycle.

SUMMARY:Other:Innovative Strategies for Nonconventional Water Splitting and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:                             One of the challenges to realize large-scale H2 production from water electrolysis is the lack of competent and inexpensive electrocatalysts. Our group recently discovered that surface modification of metallic nickel with nitrogen resulted in a superior electrocatalyst for H2 evolution under neutral condition\, rivaling the performance of the state-of-the-art platinum-based catalysts. In addition\, since water oxidation is more kinetically challenging while its product O2 is not of significant value\, we are also interested in exploring alternative oxidation reactions which can not only provide electrons for H2 evolution at the cathode but also yield value-added organic products at the anode. Within this context\, biomass-derived intermediate compounds are found to be suitable candidates for electrocatalytic upgrading\, which can be integrated with H2 production under alkaline conditions. Finally\, a new electrolyzer design for decoupled water splitting and organic transformation will be presented\, which is able to substantially reduce voltage inputs and mitigate the H2/O2 mixing issue commonly encountered in conventional water electrolysis.                                                                                                                                           \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nYujie Sun (University of Cincinnati)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Seminar Titles: \"Quantitative analysis of the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC)\"\, Chu Chen and \"Pattern Formation in 2D Tissues via Mechanics: From Juvenile Zebrafish to Human Embryonic Stem Cells\"\, Hayden Nunley
DESCRIPTION:Abstracts: \nChu Chen - In mammalian cells\, accurate chromosome segregation during mitosis requires that kinetochores of sister chromatids attach to microtubules emanating from opposite spindle poles. In the absence of kinetochore-microtubule attachment\, the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) is activated to delay anaphase onset. Over the past two decades\, researchers have basically revealed the fundamental biochemical pathway of SAC signaling. However\, how SAC effectively halts mitosis progression in the presence of very few unattached kinetochores is less addressed. In this talk\, quantitative evidence will be presented which suggest the presence of synergistic actions in SAC. Hypothesis about the underlying mechanism and preliminary data from ongoing validation experiments will also be discussed. This cooperativity may enable a single unattached kinetochore to produce a strong enough signal.-  \n\nand \n\nHayden Nunley - Many epithelial tissues are composed of several types of cells with distinct functions. For proper functioning of the tissues\, it is often important that the different types of cells form a spatial pattern. The specific biological details of how the cells interact to form these patterns are often not fully understood. To study the developmental processes in the absence of detailed biological information\, it is useful to test which simplified physical models are consistent with experimental observations. With insights from these models\, we identify specific candidate proteins or cellular structures necessary for the interaction\, and generate predictions of how specific manipulations will affect tissue patterning. In this spirit\, we will discuss the formation of a crystal of cone photoreceptors in juvenile zebrafish retinae. We find that the structure and arrangement of defects in the tissue are consistent with a purely mechanical model in which cones of one specific type interact with other cones of the same type at short range. We identify a specific cellular structure as a candidate for mediating this interaction. We will also discuss neural fate specification in human embryonic stem cell colonies. To study this pattern which has a length scale that does not scale with colony size\, we propose a model in which cells respond to mechanical stresses by altering their contractility.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Two-Step Estimation and Inference with Possibly Many Included Covariates
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: We study the implications of including many covariates in a first-step estimate entering a two-step estimation procedure. We find that a first order bias emerges when the number of included covariates is “large” relative to the square-root of sample size\, rendering standard inference procedures invalid. We show that the jackknife is able to estimate this “many covariates” bias consistently\, thereby delivering a new automatic bias-corrected two-step point estimator. The jackknife also consistently estimates the standard error of the original two-step point estimator. For inference\, we develop a valid post-bias-correction bootstrap approximation that accounts for the additional variability introduced by the jackknife biascorrection. We find that the jackknife bias-corrected point estimator and the bootstrap postbias-correction inference perform excellent in simulations\, offering important improvements over conventional two-step point estimators and inference procedures\, which are not robust to including many covariates. We apply our results to an array of distinct treatment effect\, policy evaluation\, and other applied microeconomics settings. In particular\, we discuss production function and marginal treatment effect estimation in detail.\n\nBio: Matias D.

SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:​Día de los Muertos Ball
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by: LAMBDA THETA ALPHA LATIN SORORITY\, INC.\, BETA OMICRON CHAPTER\n\nDía de los Muertos\, or Day of the Dead\, is a traditional holiday celebrated in Mexico that commemorates the lives of those who have passed. It involves family and friends gathering together to pray for and celebrate the lives of their friends and family members. Traditionally\, entire communities gather together to celebrate and create “altares” dedicated to their loved ones. These altars have decorations such as colorful paper\, marigolds\, candy\, and the favorite food or beverages of the person who the altar is dedicated to.\n\nHistory of Lambda Theta Alpha\nLambda Theta Alpha Latin Sorority\, Inc. (LTA) was founded in December of 1975 at Kean University in Union\, New Jersey as the first Latina sorority ever created to cater towards the needs of Latinas in higher education. As the Latino migration to the United States increased\, so did the emergence of independent Latina women. With this growth\, the need for support groups and outreach programs were at an all-time high\; this was true for all women and especially for the low percentage of Latina women in higher education. The sorority’s focus is not only to support all women on a college campus but to integrate the organization into the social\, political\, and community service arena that other members of the Ann Arbor community are involved with. On January 23\, 2000\, eight Lovely Ladies promoted these values on the University of Michigan campus with the founding of Beta Omicron chapter. This allowed not only independent Latina women\, but all Universal Women on campus to feel a sense of belonging and with that\, achieve their highest potential. It would define a new role for the Universal woman—one with education\, goals and vision in hopes of great success. Through educational and charitable activities\, Lambda Theta Alpha Latin Sorority\, Inc. strives to accomplish these aspirations.

DESCRIPTION:Previously of the Grammy-winning Turtle Island Quartet\, Jeremy Kittel has been a composer-arranger-collaborator for such diverse artists as My Morning Jacket\, Yo-Yo Ma & the Silk Road Ensemble\, and Bela Fleck & Abigail Washburn. He blazes through a Bach violin partita as easily as a Scottish reel\, bringing the same intense focus and precision to both. For the last few years the Michigan native\, now based in Brooklyn\, has been diligently building his own repertoire of music for a wholly original new group.\n\nThis Kittel and Co. show features mandolin phenom Josh Pinkham (named “the future of the mandolin” by Mandolin Magazine)\, guitarist Quinn Bachand (who's toured with fiddling icons Ashley MacIsaac and Natalie MacMaster)\, and hammer-dulcimer wizard Simon Chrisman (acclaimed for bringing a new tonal flexibility to the instrument).\n\nKittel & Co’s highly anticipated new album Whorls was just released June 29.

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

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

DESCRIPTION: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: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
