SUMMARY:Exhibition:Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection
DESCRIPTION:The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts\, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects\; bilingualism in Egypt\; books read by the Egyptian monks\; and the works of Shenoute the Great\, the most important author of Coptic literature.\n\nThis exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.\n\nJoin us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Paved with Good Intentions
DESCRIPTION:In keeping with artist David Opdyke’s previous work\, this site-specific installation serves as a critique of U.S. culture and politics. In an era of fake news and daily hyperbole\, Opdyke literally changes the picture by hand painting on 528 vintage postcards of well-known American landmarks and destinations. The postcards are assembled into a large mural--a vast gridded landscape beset by environmental chaos. Each card is placed to fit into the overall image\, and carefully modified with the gouache to show a realistically rendered piece of the overall turmoil.\n\nThe installation also features animated shorts and script-driven video\, which take place within the visual confines of one or more postcards. The animation is inspired\, in part\, by Terry Gilliam’s animation work on Monty Python’s \"Flying Circus\" and by the classical music sound effects in the Road Runner cartoons.\n\nAbout David Opdyke:\nDavid Opdyke is a draughtsman\, sculptor\, and animator known for his trenchant political send-ups of American culture. Born in Schenectady\, NY in 1969\, he graduated from the University of Cincinnati with a degree in painting and sculpture. His work is informed by the massive industrial and corporate restructuring he witnessed growing up\, namely the abandonment of the city center by manufacturing giants General Electric and ALCO. As GE shifted resources to neighboring Niskayuna\, the disparities became hard for Opdyke to ignore. Massive\, decaying factories\, an empty interstate loop\, and unemployment were downtown\; new streets\, expensive homes\, sushi and shopping malls were in the suburbs.\n\nFor 20 years Opdyke worked as a scenic painter and architectural model-maker. Ranging from intricate miniature constructions to room-sized installations\, his artwork explores globalization\, consumerism\, and civilization’s abusive relationship with the environment.\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Acoustical Methods for Cavitation Control in Shockwave Lithotripsy and Histotripsy
DESCRIPTION:The overall goal of the work presented in this dissertation is to develop acoustic mechanisms to modulate\, or manipulate\, cavitation events in histotripsy and lithotripsy therapies in order to achieve efficient and fast histotripsy\, high shock rate lithotripsy\, and active tissue protection. We investigated the effects of applying properly tuned low pressure acoustic pulses before and during therapy in order to control the cavitation threshold\, the shape of the resulting bubble cloud\, and the behavior and interactions of residual microbubbles. \n\n \n\nHistotripsy is a tissue ablation method that utilizes focused high amplitude ultrasound to generate a cavitation bubble cloud that mechanically fractionates tissue. Effective histotripsy depends on initiation\, control\, and maintenance of cavitation bubble clouds in the targeted area. The work in this dissertation seeks to develop active tissue protection techniques by modulating the pressure threshold of bubble cloud initiation and focal sharpening using bubble suppressing pulses. We demonstrated that by applying a properly tuned low pressure pulse sequence before and/or during shock scattering histotripsy therapy\, both the cavitation initiation pressure threshold and the growth of the cavitation bubble can be modified. This mechanism can be used to produce well defined lesions with minimal collateral damage. It can also be a way to actively protect soft tissue from cavitation damage during both lithotripsy and histotripsy by increasing the pressure threshold for bubble cloud initiation in the periphery zone. \n\n \n\nCavitation also plays a significant role in the efficacy of stone comminution during shockwave lithotripsy (SWL). Although cavitation on the surface of urinary stones helps to improve stone fragmentation\, cavitation bubbles along the propagation path may shield or block subsequent shockwaves and potentially induce collateral tissue damage. At low firing rates\, there is sufficient time for the majority of the bubbles to passively dissolve\, while at high firing rates the per shockwave efficacy is significantly reduced due to pre-focal persisting bubbles. We investigated acoustic methods for removing residual bubble nuclei in order to avoid shielding effects. Previous in vitro work has shown that applying low amplitude acoustic waves after each shockwave can force bubbles to consolidate and enhance SWL efficacy. In this work\, the feasibility of applying acoustic bubble coalescence (ABC) in vivo was examined. We further optimized the parameters of bubble coalescing pulses\, and conducted a feasibility investigation of bubble dispersion by forcing the residual bubble nuclei to disperse from the propagation path away or toward the targeted area before the arrival of the next therapy pulse. These results suggest that manipulation of residual bubbles after each shockwave can be further optimized by acoustic bubble coalescence and dispersion\, which can reduce the shielding effect of residual bubble nuclei more efficiently than relying only on immediate coalescence of residual bubbles\, resulting in a more efficient SWL treatment.

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:Marisa Morán Jahn: The Mighty and the Mythic
DESCRIPTION:Marisa Morán Jahn: The Mighty and the Mythic\nJanuary 24\, 2019 – March 2\, 2019\n\nStamps Gallery is proud to present The Mighty and the Mythic\, a solo exhibition of work by renowned social practice artist Marisa Morán Jahn. For the first time\, The Mighty and the Mythic brings together three key projects — CareForce (2012– ongoing)\, Bibliobandido (2010–ongoing)\, and MIRROR | MASK (2017–ongoing) — that highlight her deep and meaningful collaborations with low-wage immigrants\, caregivers\, and youth. Jahn describes her use of play and humor as essential tools that enable her and her collaborators to portray their lives with dignity\, critique power\, and build momentum within their community. Jahn’s practice is deeply informed by her own experiences growing up as a second-generation immigrant of Chinese and Ecuadorian heritage. For Jahn home was not a fixed place but an adaptation itself. Her varied vocational past as a schoolteacher\, caretaker\, woodshop cleaner-upper\, lumber hauler\, community organizer\, and now university professor and mother informs the urgency in her work to find common ground between (her-)self and (an-)other\, through the concepts of care and empathy. Each of the works in this exhibition highlights her deep engagement with the stories of everyday people\, mundane routines\, and a desire to build an inclusive society. Marisa Morán Jahn: the Mighty and the Mythic celebrates and acknowledges the daily struggles and minor victories of the 99 percent that make up the spirit of our society in the twenty-first century.\n\nArtwork by Marisa Morán Jahn: The Driver (detail)\, from MIRROR | MASK series\, featuring Darlyne Komukama. 2017\, Uganda

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Mass Incarceration: A WeListen Staff Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Mass Incarceration: A WeListen Staff Discussion\n\nThis session of WeListen is open to all UM staff members. All voices and views are welcome and lunch will be provided!\n\nRSVP here: http://myumi.ch/6wE9n\n\nThe U.S. has the most incarcerated people in the world: 2.1 million. The corrections system costs $81B annually\, while corporations make $7.4B from private prisons and $2B+ from prison labor. Black and Hispanic Americans are overrepresented in U.S. prisons and 83% of formerly incarcerated people are rearrested within 9 years of release.\n\nIs mass incarceration working? Why are racial minorities overrepresented? Should the U.S. consider different sentencing and correctional models? Has privatization in our justice system gone too far\, or not far enough?\n\nJoin us at this WeListen Staff Session to learn about mass incarceration and to participate in small group discussions about this complex topic. Our aim is to bring liberals\, conservatives\, libertarians- everyone across the political spectrum- together for constructive conversation. The goal of WeListen discussions is not to debate or argue\, but to understand the views and values of others and to learn from their perspectives. The session will begin with a brief content presentation to provide a basic understanding of the topic. No specific level of knowledge is required to participate in WeListen discussions.\n\n\nBy participating in WeListen sessions\, staff members will:\n- Expand understanding of a prominent political topic\n- Practice discussing difficult topics with others\,\n- Gain openness to new ideas and perspectives\,\n- Learn to productively challenge an idea\, and\n- Form a sense of community among fellow staff members.\n\nQuestions? Email us at welistenstaff@umich.edu. \n\nThis event is co-sponsored by the UM Office of DEI and the LSA DEI Implementation Leads. The planning committee includes staff members from the Ginsberg Center\, the LSA Dean's Office\, and LSA Psychology.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Paul Rand: The Designer's Task
DESCRIPTION:Paul Rand's visionary conceptions of brand identity \nPaul Rand was a giant of American design\, whose influential career spanned the second half of the twentieth century. His visionary and pithy conceptions of corporate and non-profit brand identities—though often graphically minimal—embody the artist’s complex philosophy\, interest in modernist aesthetics\, and singular wit. This exhibition features posters\, book covers\, and packaging designs from Rand’s beginnings as a pro bono designer for arts and culture publications like Direction magazine to his decades of crafting trailblazing corporate design for companies such as IBM. Paul Rand: The Designer’s Task affords viewers the opportunity to explore the genre of graphic design within the context of the art museum and examine how Rand’s intellectual process and impact on visual culture developed over time.\n\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CSEAS Friday Lecture Series. Photographic Mourning: Witnessing the Philippine Drug War
DESCRIPTION:Under the regime of Pres. Rodrigo Duterte\, the so-called drug war in the Philippines has exacted an enormous toll. In this talk\, I inquire into one of the earliest and most graphic responses to this war: the work of photojournalists. How does photojournalism become a kind of advocacy by becoming a mode of mourning? How are trauma and witnessing braided together in the experience of photographers covering war? Indeed\, how does photography offer evidence that trauma can be the site for the emergence of truth? What is the role of the camera and what are the ambivalent effects of the technical and aesthetic imaging of the dead and their survivors? What is the fate of photographic images once they travel beyond the control of photographers? For example\, converted into commodities\, what happens to them when they circulate in the global mediascape and are rendered into items for the daily consumption of anonymous viewers? And among the family of victims\, how do dreams recapitulate as they displace the work of photographic mourning? \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:Careers / Jobs:Next Steps Virtual PICSnics: Brown Bag BlueJeans Video Conference Luncheon with Emily Biester
DESCRIPTION:Interested in the Peace Corps\, teaching English abroad\, federal immigration services\, or a government agency career? Learn from PICS alumna Emily Biester (BA '13) through her abroad experiences and her work as a federal employee for U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. Please RSVP to attend by Monday\, January 21\, 2019 here: http://myumi.ch/6jEAP. \n    \nEmily is from Oak Park\, IL\, and majored in Political Science and International Studies at the University of Michigan. During her senior year at the University of Michigan\, she worked specifically with immigrant populations. At the Freedom House in Detroit\, she assisted in the translation of legal documents from French into English for refugees and asylum seekers in the process of resettlement\, primarily from Northern Africa and the Middle East. She then worked in an immigration law office\, where she interacted directly with immigrants while concurrently conducting research on migration policy through her coursework at the University of Michigan. \n    \nLearning about the diverse backgrounds of the people her law office served was a transformative experience that led Emily to the Peace Corps\, where she served in Madagascar for 26 months as an Education Volunteer. She taught English at the local public high school in Fort Dauphin\, a large town on the southeastern coast of the island\, while also engaging in community development projects targeted toward malaria prevention\, gender equality\, and teacher training. She joined the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) at the Seattle Field Office as an Immigration Services Officer – ISO1 in March 2016\, and became an ISO2 in October 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:Lecture / Discussion:The answer is blowin' in the wind: Do American attitudes on energy and economic willingness to pay for renewables reflect behavioral outcomes?
DESCRIPTION:University of Michigan Energy Institute Postdoctoral Seminar\nLocation: Ford School of Public Policy\, Weill 3240 (3rd floor seminar room) (talk will start promptly at 11:45\; space is limited)\n\nAn important strategy for climate protection is through deep\, decarbonization and a transition from a fossil to renewable energy portfolio in the electricity sector. There is much evidence of national\, growing public support for state policies to spur such a transition\, including Renewable Portfolio Standards (RPS) and various incentive programs. Select utilities in states with RPS policies have been offering green power purchase programs that enable consumers to pay premiums (from 0.1- 7.0 ¢/KWh) for electricity from wind or solar power. Using a novel approach to compare consumer survey data to revealed program outcomes\, we investigate: does sentiment for climate action translate into actual behavior as measured through ratepayer purchases of green power? The University of Michigan Energy Institute collects national data on energy attitudes and environmental concerns (U-M Energy Survey)\, a quarterly rider on the U-M’s Institute for Social Research Surveys of Consumers (SCA). The U-M Ford School’s Center for Local State and Urban Policy (CLOSUP) collects national data on energy policy preferences\, including the extent consumers would be willing to pay more for renewable energy via particular state policies. This analysis combines these sets of survey data with federally collected data on utility-level green power premiums and utility-wide demographics and electricity prices. This seminar will show initial results pertaining to the state of U.S. utility green pricing behavior\, and how attitudes and stated willingness to pay premiums for green power actually correlate with behavioral outcomes. Such findings offer insights for program evaluation\, increasing green pricing enrollment and informing the development of future market-based policy interventions. The presentation will conclude with a discussion to answer questions and solicit suggestions.

SUMMARY:Presentation:IOE Lunch & Learn Seminar Series: Abdullah Alshelahi
DESCRIPTION:Open to all IOE graduate students and faculty. Lunch will be provided. In order to get an accurate count for food\, please RSVP by noon on Wednesday\, January 23.\n\nAbstract:\nStock markets play a vital role in the stability of the global economy. The financial crash in 2008 is a vivid example of how the stock markets and economy are connected. The underlying structure of stock markets is complex. Complex systems tend to operate in a nonlinear fashion\, generating extreme and rare events. Current research in stock markets mainly focuses on analyzing individual stocks (i.e. microscopic analysis) while ignoring the overall interactions and dynamics between them (i.e. macroscopic analysis). In this talk\, I will present a new perspective on the macroscopic nature of stock markets. This perspective offers new insights into the physics of the markets. The proposed approach analyzes the markets within the context of fluid dynamics. We utilize\, for the first time\, concepts from physics and incorporate them in modeling the external and internal dynamics of the markets. A novel model consisting of a stochastic system of nonlinear partial differential equations is introduced. The model allows connecting and determining the evolution of macroscopic variables adaptively. In the last part of this talk\, I will address several extensions and ongoing efforts in this research.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Psychology Methods Hour:  Context effects in Hierarchical Linear Modeling (HLM) – obvious and no-so-obvious issues using a simple data example
DESCRIPTION:Context effects are a common element in testing hypotheses involving nested data structures: Do students learn better if they are surrounded by high achieving students? Is the association between unemployment and depression stronger in affluent neighborhoods? Unfortunately\, it is not always clear how to specify a context effect correctly in hierarchical linear modeling (HLM). Dr. Cortina will demonstrate that the different options of centering predictor variables can be confusing and often leads to inconsistent statistical conclusions. While there are special cases that require more complex models\, he argues that most empirical studies in psychological research follow a straightforward definition of context effects.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:she was here\, once
DESCRIPTION:The mobility and displacement of the Black body\, from port to holding cell\, to ward and out\, is a history that is embedded in our communities socially\, culturally and geographically. Alluding to feelings of pain\, otherness\, power and triumph\, \"she was here\, once\" features work that illustrates a moment of remembrance and reflection on the women who have roamed these spaces before us.\n\nIn summer 2018\, artist Nastassja Swift organized a collaborative workshop and public performance in her home city of Richmond\, Virginia. Using a range of choreographed movement\, sound\, and solidarity\, eight Black women and girls\, wearing large needle felted wool masks\, traced the ancestral footprints of the arrival of the Black body in Richmond. The 3.5 mile walk began in Shockoe Bottom (the site of the importation of slaves into Richmond\, and one of the largest sources of slave trade in America) and concluded in the Jackson Ward neighborhood (one of the largest Black communities in Richmond).\n\nThe multi-layered piece has produced a short film\, mini documentary\, photography\, and performance masks\, on display in her solo exhibition\, \"she was here\, once\" in Lane Hall.\n\nLane Hall Gallery is open to the public weekdays from 8am - 4pm. Class visits are encouraged.\n\nAccessibility: Ramp and elevator access at the E. Washington Street entrance (by the loading dock). There are accessible restrooms on the south end of Lane Hall\, on each floor of the building. A gender neutral restroom is available on the first floor.\n\nContact Heidi Bennett\, IRWG Event Planner (heidiab@umich.edu) with questions about this exhibition.\n\nCosponsors: Department of Women's Studies\, Stamps School of Art & Design\, Department of English\, Art History\, Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies\, Center for the Education of Women+

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Universal Declaration of Human Rights: Linocuts by Meredith Stern
DESCRIPTION:On December 10\, 1948\, in the aftermath of the devastation of World War II\, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a roadmap to guarantee the rights of every individual everywhere. The complete Declaration is comprised of a Preamble and 30 Articles. In honor of the 60th anniversary of this document\, we are exhibiting 14 Articles in the form of illustrated prints by Meredith Stern. These contemporary prints are intended both to make people aware of this rights roadmap and to show its urgent relevance in our contemporary political moment.\n\nMeredith Stern is an artist currently based in Providence\, RI\, and a member of the Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative\, a decentralized network of 30 artists committed to social\, environmental\, and political engagement. Stern created a total of 28 sets of these linocut prints in 2017\, of which one is held in the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the Special Collections Research Center.

SUMMARY:Presentation:CCN Forum - Development Talks
DESCRIPTION:Tyler Adkins:\n\nTitle: \nRewards enhance multi-voxel decoding of lightly trained motor sequences\n\nAbstract: \nProspective rewards lead to improvements in motor skill performance via an unknown neural mechanism. We hypothesize that these reward-related behavioral improvements are mediated by reward-related enhancements in neural codes which represent upcoming actions. We measured the fidelity of action-related neural codes using machine learning classifiers which attempt to decode action identity from patterns of brain activity preceding actions. We found that prospective rewards had a positive linear effect on the fidelity of action-related neural codes in canonical preparatory motor regions. However\, this effect is only present for neural codes representing actions that were lightly trained—the codes for heavily trained actions were unaffected by prospective rewards. Future research should investigate this interaction between depth of training and reward. \n\n\nHyesue Jang\n\nTitle:  \nLosing Money and Motivation: Younger and older adults’ response to loss incentive\n\nAbstract:\nWould you be more likely to keep your New Year’s resolution if breaking it cost you $20? Loss-based incentives are common in everyday life (e.g.\, job/financial security\, health\, driving) especially for older adults. Many laboratory studies report that loss-based incentives do not affect the performance of older adults. This is often interpreted as an example of the age-related positivity effect described by Carstensen and colleagues. However\, the tasks used in many laboratory studies have constraints (e.g.\, fast-passed trials\, salient targets\, frequent responses) that keep attention focused on the task. This is very different from many real-life situations. Using a more open-ended\, low-salience task\, we found that loss incentives reduced performance and attention to the task in older adults (Lin et al.\, in revision). We suggested this might reflect disengagement in response to negative feedback. In this talk\, we examine the effects of loss incentive on a more traditionally-formatted task\, and also examine the effects on participants’ subjective reports of task engagement\, motivation\, and related variables.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Better Assemblies Through Geometric Frustration
DESCRIPTION:In hard materials\, geometric frustration (GF) is most often associated with the disruption of long-range order in the bulk and proliferation of defects in the ground state. Soft and self-assembled materials\, on the other hand\, are composed of intrinsically flexible building blocks held together deformable and non-covalent forces. As such\, soft assemblies systems are able to tolerate some measure of local misfit due to frustration\, allowing imperfect order to extend over at least some\nfinite range.\n\nThis talk will overview an emerging paradigm for self-organized soft materials\, geometrically-frustrated assemblies (GFAs)\, where interactions between self-assembling elements (e.g. particles\, macromolecules\, proteins) favor local packing motifs that are incompatible with uniform global order in the assembly. This classification applies to a broad range of material assemblies including self-twisting\nprotein filament bundles\, amyloid fibers\, chiral smectics and membranes\, particle-coated droplets\, curved protein shells and phase-separated lipid vesicles. In assemblies\, GF leads to a host of anomalous structural and thermodynamic\nproperties\, including heterogeneous and internally-stressed equilibrium structures\, self-limiting assembly and topological defects in the equilibrium assembly structures.\n\nI will highlight the some of the basic principles and common outcomes of GF in soft matter assemblies\, as well as\, outstanding questions not yet addressed about the unique properties and behaviors of this broad class of systems. Finally\, I will describe opportunities and challenges to exploit the scale-dependent thermodynamics of GFA to engineer new classes of intentionally ill-fitting assemblies that target equilibrium architectures with well-defined dimensions on length scales that extend far beyond the size of the building blocks or their interactions.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Dark Matter Production: Finite Temperature Effects in the Early Universe
DESCRIPTION:In the early universe\, the Standard Model particles formed a hot thermal bath.  We highlight the importance of finite temperature corrections in these conditions on various production mechanisms of dark matter\, primarily through temperature dependent masses and scalar vevs.  We first consider a variation on standard freeze-out\, where kinematic thresholds determine the relic abundance.  We then consider a freeze-in model where the production rate is dramatically increased when a kinematic threshold opens.  Finally\, we present a qualitatively new production mechanism for dark matter\, where dark matter decay is allowed for a limited amount of time just before the electroweak phase transition.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Towards Energy Justice: Exploring the Production and Persistence of Residential Urban Energy Disparities
DESCRIPTION:U.S. government action at the intersection of energy and equity is typically driven by either geopolitical or economic crises that affect energy prices\, rather than by a comprehensive\, long-term approach to addressing disparities in energy access and affordability. With one in three U.S. households facing challenges in paying energy bills\, understanding residential energy disparities is key to achieving energy justice. This presentation introduces the energy justice framework and explores the production and persistence of disparities in urban residential energy dynamics\,\nfocused primarily on energy efficiency. The results of cases studies in Kansas City and Detroit demonstrate how spatial\, racial\, and socioeconomic disparities manifest in urban areas\, and how community-based approaches to increasing can help overcome barriers to energy justice.\n\nTony G. Reames is an assistant professor in the School for Environment and Sustainability\, Director of the Urban Energy Justice Lab\, and a Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health JPB Environmental Health Fellow. He has a BS in Civil Engineering\, a Masters in Engineering Management (MEM)\, and a PhD in Public Administration. He is also a licensed Professional Engineer.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:“Good Intentions: Is Art an Effective Means of Activism?” & Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:Join us for light refreshments and conversation as artist David Opdyke\, journalist Lauren Sandler\, art historian Tara Ward\, and arts curator Amanda Krugliak explore the power\, or lack thereof\, of art to address politically urgent issues and the effectiveness of socially driven art.\n\nAbout \"Paved with Good Intentions\,\" David Opdyke's exhibition at the Institute for the Humanities through Feb. 26:\n\nIn keeping with artist David Opdyke’s previous work\, this site-specific installation serves as a critique of U.S. culture and politics. In an era of fake news and daily hyperbole\, Opdyke literally changes the picture by hand painting on 528 vintage postcards of well-known American landmarks and destinations. The postcards are assembled into a large mural--a vast gridded landscape beset by environmental chaos. Each card is placed to fit into the overall image\, and carefully modified with the gouache to show a realistically rendered piece of the overall turmoil.\n\nThe installation also features animated shorts and script-driven video\, which take place within the visual confines of one or more postcards. The animation is inspired\, in part\, by Terry Gilliam’s animation work on Monty Python’s \"Flying Circus\" and by the classical music sound effects in the Road Runner cartoons.\n\nAbout David Opdyke:\nDavid Opdyke is a draughtsman\, sculptor\, and animator known for his trenchant political send-ups of American culture. Born in Schenectady\, NY in 1969\, he graduated from the University of Cincinnati with a degree in painting and sculpture. His work is informed by the massive industrial and corporate restructuring he witnessed growing up\, namely the abandonment of the city center by manufacturing giants General Electric and ALCO. As GE shifted resources to neighboring Niskayuna\, the disparities became hard for Opdyke to ignore. Massive\, decaying factories\, an empty interstate loop\, and unemployment were downtown\; new streets\, expensive homes\, sushi and shopping malls were in the suburbs.\n\nFor 20 years Opdyke worked as a scenic painter and architectural model-maker. Ranging from intricate miniature constructions to room-sized installations\, his artwork explores globalization\, consumerism\, and civilization’s abusive relationship with the environment.\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

We -- a group of faculty\, staff\, and students -- have become actively involved in the University’s strategic plan for Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion and gained visibility across the university. For over two years\, the IWG has been run through the Arab and Muslim American Studies Program in American Culture\; starting in Fall 2018\, the IWG will be co-led by AMAS and CMENAS. \n    \nOur work is driven by issues brought to the group by any student\, staff\, or faculty member. The group strategizes as a collective to figure out the best approach to a given issue. Thus\, if you encounter a pertinent issue\, we want to know about it and we welcome your participation in the group. \n    \nIf you would like to join our email list or come to a meeting\, please contact Professor Samer Ali (samerali@umich.edu)\, or IWG student coordinator\, Silan Fadlallah (silanf@umich.edu). \n\nCosponsors: American Culture\; Arab Muslim & American Studies\; Islamic Studies Program\; Office of Multiethnic Student Affairs\; Muslim Students' Association\; Arab Students' Association\; International Institute\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. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange. Contact: Silan Fadlallah (silanf@umich.edu)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:NERS Colloquium:  Jeff Harper\, X-Energy
DESCRIPTION:Title: Generation IV Nuclear Reactors: \"Liángjī\" for Global Nuclear X-energy: A Model for Nuclear Innovation\n\nAbstract: Western proverbial wisdom has referred to the Chinese word for \"Crisis\" as meaning both \"Danger\" and Opportunity.\" However\, according to Dr. Victor Mair\, Professor of Chinese Language and Literature\, University of Pennsylvania\, this is a grossly inaccurate statement when trying to describe the concept of opportunity. Instead\, he recommends the word \"Liángjī\"(Excellent\" + \"Incipient moment\" = Opportunity) to explain real opportunity at an inflection point in time. The US commercial nuclear industry can be considered an \"Liángjī.\" US nuclear electricity generating capacity is expected to decline over the next 30 years\, the recent boom in shale oil discoveries\, low natural gas prices\, and the apparent inability to construct and deliver US commercial nuclear power plants on time and within budget have all contributed to a low confidence in the future of commercial nuclear power. However\, a new class of nuclear power plants\, Generation IV (Gen IV)\, with the ability to provide cogeneration solutions (electricity and process heat) for non-traditional applications and\, in some cases\, utilize nuclear waste as fuel has the potential to enable the industry\, like a Phoenix\, to raise from the ashes of gloom. This presentation will describe considerations\, strategies and plans of X-energy\, a Gen IV High Temperate Gas Reactor technology developer\, as it leapfrogs traditional commercial nuclear power plant technology to globally deliver breakthrough clean\, safe\, secure and affordable energy solutions.\n\nBio: As vice president for strategy and business development at X-energy\, Jeff directs long-term business plans specifically focused on customers\, partners and markets. Jeff has 30 years of entrepreneurial\, general management\, and nuclear power industry experience in Africa\, Europe\, and the US. Prior to joining X-energy\, Jeff worked at the Westinghouse Advanced Reactors Program (pebble bed reactor)\, where he was a commercial/business development program leader and the initial commercial leader for its Small Modular Light Water Nuclear Reactor program. Prior to Westinghouse\, Jeff was Founder and CEO for Turner\, Harper & Associates\, a niche global engineering firm\, with 100 full time staff serving key clients including the Department of Energy\, the CEZ - Czech Republic Nuclear Power Company\, Lockheed-Martin\, and Bechtel Jacobs. Jeff also served as a Vendor Inspector for the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission\, where he led more than 30 management\, technical\, and quality assurance inspections and audits of nuclear power plants and vendors. Jeff serves on the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Civil Nuclear Trade Advisory Committee\, Nuclear Energy Institute’s Suppliers Advisory Committee\, Prince George’s County Workforce Development Board and is a frequent speaker on advanced nuclear. Jeff received a B.S. in Metallurgical Engineering from the University of Cincinnati and an MBA from the Harvard Business School.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Quantify Systematics from Mislabeled Truth Tables in Supervised Learning
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Many real world classification problems use ground truth labels created by human annotators. However\, observed data is never perfect\, and even labels assigned by perfect annotators can be systematically biased due to poor quality of the data they are labeling. This bias is not created by the annotators from measurement error\, but is intrinsic to the observational data. We present a method for de-biasing labels which simultaneously learns a classification model\, estimates the intrinsic biases in the ground truth\, and provides new de-biased labels. We test our algorithm on simulated and real data and show that it is superior to standard denoising algorithms\, like instance weighted logistic regression. We apply our technique to galaxy images and find that the morphologies based on supervised machine-learning trained over features such as colors\, shape\, and concentration show significantly less bias than morphologies based on expert or citizen-science classifiers. This result holds even when there is underlying bias present in the training sets used in the supervised machine learning process.\n\nBio: Chris Miller is a leader in astroinformatics – mixing computer science\, advanced statistics\, and data mining to answer key cosmological questions. His specialty is using galaxy clusters to trace the distribution of matter in the universe. After years exploiting the Sloan Digital Sky Survey\, he is now heavily involved in the Dark Energy Survey and Dark Energy Spectroscopic Survey\, two of the largest current astronomical survey efforts. Professor Miller used his galaxy-cluster research to support the Big Bang theory by aligning findings from opposing cosmological epochs. He was the first to see the signatures of sound waves from the very early universe that were “frozen into” the matter-density distribution that we observe today. His analysis of the current universe synched neatly with the acoustic oscillations of the early universe detected in the cosmic microwave background\, and demonstrated the power of combining big-survey with focused observational follow-up data. He has published in a variety of journals outside his own fields of physics and astronomy\, including NIPS\, ICPR\, The Annals of Applied Statistics\, and Statistical Science.\n\nBackground: BS\, Penn State\; PhD\, University of Maine. Postdoc (2000-2005) Carnegie-Mellon\; Faculty (2005-2009) National Optical Astronomy Observatory/Chile. Hired in 2010 at U-M under a presidential initiative for advancing data mining research.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Musicology Distinguished Lecture Series: Prof. Edmund Goehring\, Western University (Ontario)
DESCRIPTION:This talk works through some under-examined troubles besetting de-Romanticized criticism that uses the mechanisms of music to negate the force of subjectivity. It does so by drawing on a pair of categories first developed for the analysis of literature and the visual arts: A. D. Nuttall’s “transparent” and “opaque” modes. Nuttall’s categories present both a challenge and opportunity by bringing back into view an older mode of criticism that can see not just different things from the new\, but more things\, and with no loss of intellectual rigor or weakening of validity as historical and aesthetic insight.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Impressions in Pastel
DESCRIPTION:Sharon Will’s commitment to painting is to capture the simple\, everyday beauty around her in her native Michigan and beyond. She is passionate about painting plein air (outdoors) whenever possible\, as she feels the direct observation from life is the best teacher to truly see the subtleties of light and color in nature. Working on sanded paper\, her process begins with a pastel and alcohol/mineral spirits under-painting wash to establish value and color. Soft pastel is applied in layers\, often in contrasting color and temperatures for vibrancy. Over her 35-year career in painting\, Will has won numerous national awards. She also operates a custom framing business from her home/studio in Washington Township and teaches occasional workshops.

DESCRIPTION:Most members of Paradigm art quilt group are professional artists based in southeast Michigan who create work\, teach and lecture. Although most of their artwork is textile based\, members use many different techniques. The theme of this exhibit is Inspired\, and the art quilts on display incorporate elements of assemblage\, collage and painting. The exhibit showcases the round robin approach that guided the creation of the work: the first artist made something which inspired the work of the second artist\, which inspired the work of the third artist\, and so on. A brief statement about the inspiration is included with each piece.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Mystery Train: Oil on Linen
DESCRIPTION:Gregg Chadwick grew up with the rails of America in his blood. His grandfather Arthur Desch stoked coal in steam engines before becoming a train engineer on the Jersey Central Line. At family gatherings in Chadwick’s grandparent’s home\, his aunts and cousins played music to the rhythms of the trains outside. From Junior Parker\, Elvis Presley\, Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash\, to arts writers and directors Greil Marcus and Jim Jarmusch\, the enduring mythos of America and its legacy has been wrapped up in the blues notes of the song “Mystery Train”. Chadwick’s current series of paintings\, Mystery Train\, is steeped in the powerful echoes of those machine days.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection
DESCRIPTION:The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts\, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects\; bilingualism in Egypt\; books read by the Egyptian monks\; and the works of Shenoute the Great\, the most important author of Coptic literature.\n\nThis exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.\n\nJoin us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

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:Marisa Morán Jahn: The Mighty and the Mythic
DESCRIPTION:Marisa Morán Jahn: The Mighty and the Mythic\nJanuary 24\, 2019 – March 2\, 2019\n\nStamps Gallery is proud to present The Mighty and the Mythic\, a solo exhibition of work by renowned social practice artist Marisa Morán Jahn. For the first time\, The Mighty and the Mythic brings together three key projects — CareForce (2012– ongoing)\, Bibliobandido (2010–ongoing)\, and MIRROR | MASK (2017–ongoing) — that highlight her deep and meaningful collaborations with low-wage immigrants\, caregivers\, and youth. Jahn describes her use of play and humor as essential tools that enable her and her collaborators to portray their lives with dignity\, critique power\, and build momentum within their community. Jahn’s practice is deeply informed by her own experiences growing up as a second-generation immigrant of Chinese and Ecuadorian heritage. For Jahn home was not a fixed place but an adaptation itself. Her varied vocational past as a schoolteacher\, caretaker\, woodshop cleaner-upper\, lumber hauler\, community organizer\, and now university professor and mother informs the urgency in her work to find common ground between (her-)self and (an-)other\, through the concepts of care and empathy. Each of the works in this exhibition highlights her deep engagement with the stories of everyday people\, mundane routines\, and a desire to build an inclusive society. Marisa Morán Jahn: the Mighty and the Mythic celebrates and acknowledges the daily struggles and minor victories of the 99 percent that make up the spirit of our society in the twenty-first century.\n\nArtwork by Marisa Morán Jahn: The Driver (detail)\, from MIRROR | MASK series\, featuring Darlyne Komukama. 2017\, Uganda

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Paul Rand: The Designer's Task
DESCRIPTION:Paul Rand's visionary conceptions of brand identity \nPaul Rand was a giant of American design\, whose influential career spanned the second half of the twentieth century. His visionary and pithy conceptions of corporate and non-profit brand identities—though often graphically minimal—embody the artist’s complex philosophy\, interest in modernist aesthetics\, and singular wit. This exhibition features posters\, book covers\, and packaging designs from Rand’s beginnings as a pro bono designer for arts and culture publications like Direction magazine to his decades of crafting trailblazing corporate design for companies such as IBM. Paul Rand: The Designer’s Task affords viewers the opportunity to explore the genre of graphic design within the context of the art museum and examine how Rand’s intellectual process and impact on visual culture developed over time.\n\n

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Korean Cinema NOW | Believer / 독전
DESCRIPTION:2018 | 123 Minutes | Directed by Hae-young Lee \n\nFree | Open to the public | In Korean with English subtitles \n    \n'Believer' is a wild and boisterous crime drama that’s evenly split between romanticizing the back-and-forth between cops and robbers\, and lamenting the pointlessness of that endless pursuit. Directed by Lee Hae-young\, a rising talent whose distaste for half-measures was already on full display in his previous work (e.g. 2015’s “The Silenced”)\, the film espouses a violent commitment to both sides of that coin — the fun of the chase\, and the hollow pain that someone feels when it finally catches up to them.\" - David Ehrlich\, Indiewire \n    \nCheck out Indiewire's full review: https://www.indiewire.com/2018/06/believer-review-lee-hae-young-1201971963/

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Universal Declaration of Human Rights: Linocuts by Meredith Stern
DESCRIPTION:On December 10\, 1948\, in the aftermath of the devastation of World War II\, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a roadmap to guarantee the rights of every individual everywhere. The complete Declaration is comprised of a Preamble and 30 Articles. In honor of the 60th anniversary of this document\, we are exhibiting 14 Articles in the form of illustrated prints by Meredith Stern. These contemporary prints are intended both to make people aware of this rights roadmap and to show its urgent relevance in our contemporary political moment.\n\nMeredith Stern is an artist currently based in Providence\, RI\, and a member of the Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative\, a decentralized network of 30 artists committed to social\, environmental\, and political engagement. Stern created a total of 28 sets of these linocut prints in 2017\, of which one is held in the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the Special Collections Research Center.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Impressions in Pastel
DESCRIPTION:Sharon Will’s commitment to painting is to capture the simple\, everyday beauty around her in her native Michigan and beyond. She is passionate about painting plein air (outdoors) whenever possible\, as she feels the direct observation from life is the best teacher to truly see the subtleties of light and color in nature. Working on sanded paper\, her process begins with a pastel and alcohol/mineral spirits under-painting wash to establish value and color. Soft pastel is applied in layers\, often in contrasting color and temperatures for vibrancy. Over her 35-year career in painting\, Will has won numerous national awards. She also operates a custom framing business from her home/studio in Washington Township and teaches occasional workshops.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection
DESCRIPTION:The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts\, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects\; bilingualism in Egypt\; books read by the Egyptian monks\; and the works of Shenoute the Great\, the most important author of Coptic literature.\n\nThis exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.\n\nJoin us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Marisa Morán Jahn: The Mighty and the Mythic
DESCRIPTION:Marisa Morán Jahn: The Mighty and the Mythic\nJanuary 24\, 2019 – March 2\, 2019\n\nStamps Gallery is proud to present The Mighty and the Mythic\, a solo exhibition of work by renowned social practice artist Marisa Morán Jahn. For the first time\, The Mighty and the Mythic brings together three key projects — CareForce (2012– ongoing)\, Bibliobandido (2010–ongoing)\, and MIRROR | MASK (2017–ongoing) — that highlight her deep and meaningful collaborations with low-wage immigrants\, caregivers\, and youth. Jahn describes her use of play and humor as essential tools that enable her and her collaborators to portray their lives with dignity\, critique power\, and build momentum within their community. Jahn’s practice is deeply informed by her own experiences growing up as a second-generation immigrant of Chinese and Ecuadorian heritage. For Jahn home was not a fixed place but an adaptation itself. Her varied vocational past as a schoolteacher\, caretaker\, woodshop cleaner-upper\, lumber hauler\, community organizer\, and now university professor and mother informs the urgency in her work to find common ground between (her-)self and (an-)other\, through the concepts of care and empathy. Each of the works in this exhibition highlights her deep engagement with the stories of everyday people\, mundane routines\, and a desire to build an inclusive society. Marisa Morán Jahn: the Mighty and the Mythic celebrates and acknowledges the daily struggles and minor victories of the 99 percent that make up the spirit of our society in the twenty-first century.\n\nArtwork by Marisa Morán Jahn: The Driver (detail)\, from MIRROR | MASK series\, featuring Darlyne Komukama. 2017\, Uganda

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:Paul Rand: The Designer's Task
DESCRIPTION:Paul Rand's visionary conceptions of brand identity \nPaul Rand was a giant of American design\, whose influential career spanned the second half of the twentieth century. His visionary and pithy conceptions of corporate and non-profit brand identities—though often graphically minimal—embody the artist’s complex philosophy\, interest in modernist aesthetics\, and singular wit. This exhibition features posters\, book covers\, and packaging designs from Rand’s beginnings as a pro bono designer for arts and culture publications like Direction magazine to his decades of crafting trailblazing corporate design for companies such as IBM. Paul Rand: The Designer’s Task affords viewers the opportunity to explore the genre of graphic design within the context of the art museum and examine how Rand’s intellectual process and impact on visual culture developed over time.\n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Proof: The Ryoichi Excavations
DESCRIPTION:A narrative of Ryoichi's archaeological work \nThe story of Japanese archaeologist Ryoichi and evidence of his worldwide excavations are explored by Patrick Nagatani in this series of photographs. Nagatani presents a narrative of Ryoichi’s archaeological work\, supported by images of excavation sites\, unearthed artifacts\, and Ryoichi’s own journal pages. According to the photographs\, Ryoichi discovered evidence of an automobile culture buried at sites across several continents: Stonehenge\, the Grand Canyon\, and a necropolis in China. This provocative and playful series compels viewers to reflect on how photographs and institutions\, such as museums\, shape our knowledge of the past and present.\n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Universal Declaration of Human Rights: Linocuts by Meredith Stern
DESCRIPTION:On December 10\, 1948\, in the aftermath of the devastation of World War II\, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a roadmap to guarantee the rights of every individual everywhere. The complete Declaration is comprised of a Preamble and 30 Articles. In honor of the 60th anniversary of this document\, we are exhibiting 14 Articles in the form of illustrated prints by Meredith Stern. These contemporary prints are intended both to make people aware of this rights roadmap and to show its urgent relevance in our contemporary political moment.\n\nMeredith Stern is an artist currently based in Providence\, RI\, and a member of the Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative\, a decentralized network of 30 artists committed to social\, environmental\, and political engagement. Stern created a total of 28 sets of these linocut prints in 2017\, of which one is held in the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the Special Collections Research Center.

SUMMARY:Meeting:Great Task
DESCRIPTION:What is Lorem Ipsum? \nLorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s\, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries\, but also the leap into electronic typesetting\, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages\, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum. \n\nWhy do we use it? \nIt is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters\, as opposed to using 'Content here\, content here'\, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text\, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years\, sometimes by accident\, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Luigi Ferri: The Survival of a 12-year-old Italian Child at Auschwitz
DESCRIPTION:Seven hundred and seventy six Italian children under the age of 14 were deported to Auschwitz. Only 25 survived the gas chambers. Luigi Ferri was one of them.\n\nAs the child of mixed marriage he could have avoided deportation\, but he refused to abandon his beloved Jewish grandmother when she was arrested in June 1944 in Trieste.\n\nAt Auschwitz they were sent to the gas chambers\, but Luigi was spared at the last moment\, only because a Jewish inmate who was working as a doctor at the hospital of the camp\, Dr. Otto Wolken\, took him under his protection.\n\nLuigino remained hidden for weeks in a barrack and was then registered (tattooed) and \"employed\" as an errand boy. He and his protector miraculously survived the liquidation of the camp. In April 1945\, Luigi was one of the first witnesses of the atrocities of the camp to appear before a Polish tribunal. Afterwards\, he mysteriously vanished for the\nrest of his life\, the only Italian Auschwitz survivor of whom no news ever surfaced again - or at least this is what is commonly repeated. Newly discovered documents are now revealing us the whole story.\n\nPresented by The Dante Alighieri Society of Michigan\, in collaboration with the Department of Middle East Studies\, the Frankel Center for Judaic Studies\, the Consulate of Italy in Detroit\, and the Italian Cultural Institute of Chicago.\n\nThis event is free and open to the public. Pre-registration is welcomed\, but it is not required for UM Faculty and students.\n\nRSVP by January 25\, 2019 at: dantemichigan.org

DESCRIPTION:Sculptor Herb Babcock creates both monumental and human-scale work using metal\, glass and stone. In the early years of the American Studio Glass Movement (1974-1984) Babcock’s sculptural and painterly expression utilized the vessel format. By layering color — both mass and line — between gathers of clear\, molten glass\, the full compositions are viewed through the vessel as three-dimensional. Babcock is Professor Emeritus\, College for Creative Studies. He was Section Chair of the Glass Department where he taught for 40 years. He lives in Ann Arbor and built a new studio near U-M north campus in 2016.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Impressions in Pastel
DESCRIPTION:Sharon Will’s commitment to painting is to capture the simple\, everyday beauty around her in her native Michigan and beyond. She is passionate about painting plein air (outdoors) whenever possible\, as she feels the direct observation from life is the best teacher to truly see the subtleties of light and color in nature. Working on sanded paper\, her process begins with a pastel and alcohol/mineral spirits under-painting wash to establish value and color. Soft pastel is applied in layers\, often in contrasting color and temperatures for vibrancy. Over her 35-year career in painting\, Will has won numerous national awards. She also operates a custom framing business from her home/studio in Washington Township and teaches occasional workshops.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Mystery Train: Oil on Linen
DESCRIPTION:Gregg Chadwick grew up with the rails of America in his blood. His grandfather Arthur Desch stoked coal in steam engines before becoming a train engineer on the Jersey Central Line. At family gatherings in Chadwick’s grandparent’s home\, his aunts and cousins played music to the rhythms of the trains outside. From Junior Parker\, Elvis Presley\, Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash\, to arts writers and directors Greil Marcus and Jim Jarmusch\, the enduring mythos of America and its legacy has been wrapped up in the blues notes of the song “Mystery Train”. Chadwick’s current series of paintings\, Mystery Train\, is steeped in the powerful echoes of those machine days.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:she was here\, once
DESCRIPTION:The mobility and displacement of the Black body\, from port to holding cell\, to ward and out\, is a history that is embedded in our communities socially\, culturally and geographically. Alluding to feelings of pain\, otherness\, power and triumph\, \"she was here\, once\" features work that illustrates a moment of remembrance and reflection on the women who have roamed these spaces before us.\n\nIn summer 2018\, artist Nastassja Swift organized a collaborative workshop and public performance in her home city of Richmond\, Virginia. Using a range of choreographed movement\, sound\, and solidarity\, eight Black women and girls\, wearing large needle felted wool masks\, traced the ancestral footprints of the arrival of the Black body in Richmond. The 3.5 mile walk began in Shockoe Bottom (the site of the importation of slaves into Richmond\, and one of the largest sources of slave trade in America) and concluded in the Jackson Ward neighborhood (one of the largest Black communities in Richmond).\n\nThe multi-layered piece has produced a short film\, mini documentary\, photography\, and performance masks\, on display in her solo exhibition\, \"she was here\, once\" in Lane Hall.\n\nLane Hall Gallery is open to the public weekdays from 8am - 4pm. Class visits are encouraged.\n\nAccessibility: Ramp and elevator access at the E. Washington Street entrance (by the loading dock). There are accessible restrooms on the south end of Lane Hall\, on each floor of the building. A gender neutral restroom is available on the first floor.\n\nContact Heidi Bennett\, IRWG Event Planner (heidiab@umich.edu) with questions about this exhibition.\n\nCosponsors: Department of Women's Studies\, Stamps School of Art & Design\, Department of English\, Art History\, Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies\, Center for the Education of Women+

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection
DESCRIPTION:The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts\, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects\; bilingualism in Egypt\; books read by the Egyptian monks\; and the works of Shenoute the Great\, the most important author of Coptic literature.\n\nThis exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.\n\nJoin us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Paved with Good Intentions
DESCRIPTION:In keeping with artist David Opdyke’s previous work\, this site-specific installation serves as a critique of U.S. culture and politics. In an era of fake news and daily hyperbole\, Opdyke literally changes the picture by hand painting on 528 vintage postcards of well-known American landmarks and destinations. The postcards are assembled into a large mural--a vast gridded landscape beset by environmental chaos. Each card is placed to fit into the overall image\, and carefully modified with the gouache to show a realistically rendered piece of the overall turmoil.\n\nThe installation also features animated shorts and script-driven video\, which take place within the visual confines of one or more postcards. The animation is inspired\, in part\, by Terry Gilliam’s animation work on Monty Python’s \"Flying Circus\" and by the classical music sound effects in the Road Runner cartoons.\n\nAbout David Opdyke:\nDavid Opdyke is a draughtsman\, sculptor\, and animator known for his trenchant political send-ups of American culture. Born in Schenectady\, NY in 1969\, he graduated from the University of Cincinnati with a degree in painting and sculpture. His work is informed by the massive industrial and corporate restructuring he witnessed growing up\, namely the abandonment of the city center by manufacturing giants General Electric and ALCO. As GE shifted resources to neighboring Niskayuna\, the disparities became hard for Opdyke to ignore. Massive\, decaying factories\, an empty interstate loop\, and unemployment were downtown\; new streets\, expensive homes\, sushi and shopping malls were in the suburbs.\n\nFor 20 years Opdyke worked as a scenic painter and architectural model-maker. Ranging from intricate miniature constructions to room-sized installations\, his artwork explores globalization\, consumerism\, and civilization’s abusive relationship with the environment.\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Water System Finance: the Political Pitfalls of Public-Private Partnerships
DESCRIPTION:Betty Ford Classroom (1110)\n735 S. State Street\, Ann Arbor  48109-3091\n\n11:30am-12:50pm (pizza lunch provided)\n\nFree and open to the public\n\nAbout the Lecture:\nPlease join us in a Conversation Across Difference\, as Professor Teodoro discusses alternative ownership and management models for water and sewer utilities\, as well as the political dimensions of public\, private\, and public-private partnerships (P3s)\, and what they mean for cost and quality.  \nCurrently about 84% of American drinking water utilities are owned and operated by local governments\; about 15% are private\, investor-owned companies\, and a tiny percentage operate as public-private partnerships (P3s). Many communities with struggling utilities pursue privatization or P3s as potential ways to address their problems. These processes invariably focus principally on finance\, with little attention to water quality or political processes. \n\nDr. Teodoro will share theory\, case studies\, and statistical models that tell the story of the advantages and disadvantages of public and private ownership of water and sewer for urban/rural and large/small systems.\n\nDr. Manny Teodoro’s scholarship stands at the nexus of politics\, public policy\, and public management. His research focuses on U.S. environmental policy\, examining the ways in which human capital\, management practices\, and political institutions condition the implementation of federal environmental regulations. He pursues a line of applied policy research on water utility finance and management\, and has developed new methods for assessing rate equity and affordability. Ongoing efforts include comparative analysis of private and public utility management\, as well analysis of racial\, ethnic\, and income disparities in environmental compliance and enforcement.\n\nProfessor Teodoro’s public administration research emphasizes executive behavior\, with special attention to professions and bureaucratic career systems as political phenomena. His award-winning book\, Bureaucratic Ambition (2011\, Johns Hopkins University Press)\, argues that ambition–psychological motives manifested in a career opportunity structure–shapes administrators’ decisions to innovate and to engage in politics\, with important consequences for innovation in government and democratic governance. Current research on executive career systems seeks to link executive backgrounds and career paths to management behavior and organizational outcomes.\nProfessor Teodoro’s research has been funded by the National Science Foundation\, Water Research Foundation\, and American Water Works Association. His work has been published in the American Journal of Political Science\, the Journal of Public Administration Research and Theory\, Public Administration Review\, Journal of Public Policy\, State & Local Government Review\, and the Journal of the American Water Works Association.\n\nSponsored by:  University of Michigan Center for Local\, State\, and Urban Policy (CLOSUP) and Gerald R.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:ELPP Lecture Series: Opportunity and Action in Federal Environmental Policy
DESCRIPTION:The Trump administration has drastically changed how federal environmental policy is shaped and implemented. Beyond this obvious headline\, there are much bigger trends that will influence the environment and economy in the years ahead. Mr. Parker will discuss where the real action and opportunity will be in this space in the coming years. \n\nThis lecture is free and open to the public. \n\nDoug Parker is a recognized leader in environmental risk and compliance who advises clients on environmental policy\, public sector strategies\, enforcement actions and crisis management. \n\nAt E&W Strategies\, he serves clients by providing strategic direction in the areas of corporate and individual risk\, crisis mitigation and environmental compliance. He brings a unique perspective to his role as the former Director of EPA's Criminal Investigation Division where he oversaw matters ranging from the investigation into the Deepwater Horizon disaster to the Volkswagen emissions cheating scandal. \n\nMr. Parker counsels clients on navigating environmental\, health and safety compliance challenges across multiple industries\, including the automotive\, energy\, chemical\, utility and manufacturing sectors. He also provides guidance to law firms\, consulting firms\, and financial entities that are managing compliance matters or are engaged in due diligence with environmental risk implications. Additionally\, Mr. Parker serves as a subject matter expert for those seeking to understand and navigate the environmental and natural resource policy space or who may be advocating at the federal level on critical policy and enforcement issues. \n\nMr. Parker speaks regularly to industry groups on strategies for navigating environmental risk and has shared his insights on CNN\, National Public Radio\, as well as in The New York Times and numerous other media outlets.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Developmental Brown Bag:
DESCRIPTION:Valerie Freund\nTitle: Boredom by Sensation Seeking Interactions During Adolescence\n\nAbstract: The experience of boredom is linked to several adverse outcomes including substance use\, risk taking\, and psychopathology. Despite evidence that boredom levels peak during adolescence\, little work has been done to understand how it interacts with individual traits and its impact on adolescent psychosocial functioning and behavior. In a multi-cohort\, national sample of 8th and 10th grade students from the Monitoring the Future study\, latent moderated structural equation modeling was used to estimate the associations of boredom\, sensation seeking\, and their interaction\, with substance use\, externalizing behavior\, and internalizing symptomology. Moderation by gender was also tested. The results of this study demonstrate the generalizability of boredom associations and the significance of boredom by sensation seeking interactions across multiple domains during adolescence.\n\nYoung-en Lee\nTitle: Children’s Evaluations of Third-party Responses to Unfairness: Children Prefer Compensation over Punishment\n\nAbstract: Humans are willing to punish individuals who violate fairness norms\, even if they have to pay a cost and are not directly affected. This so-called third-party punishment is a way to intervene against transgressions and is known to stabilize norms. However\, punishment is not the only way to restore justice in such situations. Rather than punishing a perpetrator\, a third-party could also compensate a victim for their loss. To date\, there is no research that investigated children’s evaluations of punishers in comparison with compensators. In the current research\, we examined children's evaluations of third-party punishers and compensators. Five- to 9-year-old children heard a story in which a divider distributes candies selfishly between the self and a recipient. Then\, a third-party punisher takes candies from the unfair divider\, whereas a third-party compensator gives candies to the victim. We measured children’s liking for each third-party on a Likert scale and their forced-choice preference. Results revealed that children evaluated both third parties positively\, but they preferred compensators over punishers. The current research has implications for the development of understanding on justice restoration.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Dialogue and Difference:  The Point of “Pointless” Language in British and Persian Exchange 1812–1923
DESCRIPTION:Niloofar Sarlati is a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Cultural Studies and Comparative Literature at the University of Minnesota\, and a finalist in the LSA Collegiate Fellows Program at the University of Michigan.  \n\nHer talk explores how longstanding conventions of Persian courtesy became suspect indices of \"primitive\" (versus “civilized”) society in Western discourse and thus of a self-perceived “defective” modernity in early-twentieth-century Iran. She argues that transformations in the understanding of language\, social interaction\, and human life itself were articulated through discursive shifts in time-value\, truth-value\, and exchange-value that took shape in a broader dialogue between English and Persian in the long nineteenth century.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:A Philosopher Looks at Our Political Crisis
DESCRIPTION:In The Monarchy of Fear\, author Martha Nussbaum\, Professor of Law and Ethics in the Philosophy Department of the University of Chicago\, writes that since the 2016 election the role of emotion in political opinion has been largely overlooked. In the U.S. and across Europe\, the economic stress and rapid social changes affecting many lives have created a sense of powerlessness and a pervasive underlying fear of change.\nThe result is resentment and blame directed at immigrants\, Muslims\, minority races\, and the elite. We will read this book and talk about the ideas.\nPlease read through p.16 for the first class.\nInstructor Gerry Lapidus will lead this study group for those 50 and over for two hours on Mondays from January 28 through March 18.  No class meeting on March 4.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Seminar: Single-cell analysis reveals regulatory network disruption in acute myeloid leukemia
DESCRIPTION:Single-cell technologies can provide unprecedented insights into tissue heterogeneity of normal blood and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). We monitored stress signaling in single cells to understand how hematopoietic and leukemia stem cells balance survival and apoptosis. Furthermore\, we combined single-cell RNA-sequencing and genotyping to define AML cell types and their malignant properties. Uncovering principles of normal blood development and leukemia will ultimately lead to therapies that can eliminate heterogeneous AML cells.\n\nSpeaker bio:\nPeter van Galen investigates fundamental mechanisms that maintain normal hematopoiesis and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). He uses innovative and single-cell technologies to study the stem cells that sustain these complex tissues\, a theme that was carried forward from his Ph.D. work with Dr. John Dick (Toronto) to his postdoc with Dr. Bradley Bernstein (Boston). The first area of research focuses on hematopoietic and leukemia stem cell (HSC and LSC) maintenance during stress. He implicated the Unfolded Protein Response and Integrated Stress Response as critical pathways that control HSC and LSC fate by balancing apoptosis and survival. The second area of research focuses on transcriptional control of normal and malignant tissue hierarchies by transcription factors and epigenetic regulation. He also combined single-cell transcriptional and genetic profiling with machine learning to define malignant AML cell types\, revealing disruption of regulatory networks and drivers of malignant progression. Ultimately\, van Galen aims to use innovative technologies and bioinformatics to uncover the organizing principles of normal and malignant blood systems\, with the goal of discovering therapies that can eliminate heterogeneous AML cells.\n\nSponsored by the Life Sciences Institute\, Internal Medicine\, and Pathology.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Universal Declaration of Human Rights: Linocuts by Meredith Stern
DESCRIPTION:On December 10\, 1948\, in the aftermath of the devastation of World War II\, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a roadmap to guarantee the rights of every individual everywhere. The complete Declaration is comprised of a Preamble and 30 Articles. In honor of the 60th anniversary of this document\, we are exhibiting 14 Articles in the form of illustrated prints by Meredith Stern. These contemporary prints are intended both to make people aware of this rights roadmap and to show its urgent relevance in our contemporary political moment.\n\nMeredith Stern is an artist currently based in Providence\, RI\, and a member of the Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative\, a decentralized network of 30 artists committed to social\, environmental\, and political engagement. Stern created a total of 28 sets of these linocut prints in 2017\, of which one is held in the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the Special Collections Research Center.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Axions\, Direction Detection\, and ABRACADABRA
DESCRIPTION:The axion is a promising dark matter candidate which was originally proposed to solve the strong CP problem in particle physics. To date\, the available parameter space for axion and axion-like particle dark matter is relatively unexplored\, particularly at axion masses less than 1 mu eV. ABRACADABRA is a new experimental program to search for axion dark matter over a broad range of masses\, 10−12  < m_a <10−6 eV\, and ABRACADABRA-10 cm is a small-scale prototype for a future detector that could be sensitive to the QCD axion. Recently\, a one-month data collection with ABRACADABRA-10 cm lead to the first results in the search for axion dark matter by the ABRACADABRA collaboration. In this talk\, I will: review the theoretical and experimental status of axion physics\; describe the construction of the ABRACADABRA-10 cm detector\, the data collection\, and the analysis leading to new laboratory-based constraints on the axion\; and discuss future prospects for the ABRACADABRA program.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:A conversation and book talk with Harold Koh on his new book: The Trump Administration and International Law
DESCRIPTION:Join John Ciorciari\, director of International Policy Center and Weiser Diplomacy Center\, for a conversation with Harold Koh not only about his book The Trump Administration and International Law. \n\nThis book answers one of the most pressing questions of our time: who is winning the battle of Donald Trump versus international law? This clear and comprehensive tour d'horizon\, by one of America's leading international lawyers\, explains why\, in his first two years\, Trump is not \"winning\" in his effort to resign the U.S. from global leadership\, and how the Resistance is blunting his initiatives.\n\nThe book surveys many fields of international law: immigration and refugees\, human rights\, climate change\, denuclearization\, trade diplomacy\, relations with North Korea\, Russia and Ukraine\, and America's \"Forever War\" against Al Qaeda and the Islamic State and its challenges in Syria.\n\nOffers a counter-strategy to preserve the rule of law against the Trump Administration's many initiatives to change the nature of America's relationship with international law and its institutions.\n\nHarold Hongju Koh is Sterling Professor of International Law at Yale Law School. He returned to Yale Law School in January 2013 after serving for nearly four years as the 22nd Legal Advise of the U.S. Department of State.\n\nProfessor Koh is one of the country’s leading experts in public and private international law\, national security law\, and human rights. He first began teaching at Yale Law School in 1985 and served as its fifteenth Dean from 2004 until 2009. From 2009 to 2013\, he took leave as the Martin R. Flug ’55 Professor of International Law to join the State Department as Legal Adviser\, service for which he received the Secretary of State's Distinguished Service Award. From 1993 to 2009\, he was the Gerard C. & Bernice Latrobe Smith Professor of International Law at Yale Law School\, and from 1998 to 2001\, he served as U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for Democracy\, Human Rights and Labor.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Anecdotes from COP24: Bringing International Climate Negotiations Home to Ann Arbor
DESCRIPTION:Maanya is a second year master’s student at the University of Michigan School of Environment and Sustainability. As part of her master’s thesis\, Maanya is looking at understanding various factors that influence farmers’ decisions in deciding sowing dates of rice in India and to what extent climate variability impacts these decisions. Prior to joining SEAS\, Maanya studied the impact of climate change on the Himalayan glaciers. Broadly\, she is interested in the field of climate change impacts on natural resources and their adaptive capacities. At COP24\, she followed climate adaptation communication with respect to developing countries.\n\nTim is a senior in the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts where he studies in the Program in the Environment (PitE) and Philosophy\, Politics\, and Economics (PPE). He is also pursuing minors in Energy Science and Policy and Urban Studies. Tim is particularly interested in understanding political barriers to developed countries’ adoption of market-based climate change mitigation strategies--including emissions trading and carbon pricing policies--at sub-national and national levels. He is currently preparing his undergraduate thesis on the role of environmental NGOs and pressure groups in advancing the mitigation efforts of European Union member states. At COP24\, Tim followed talks on carbon markets and examined NGO influence strategies.\n\nEVENT DESCRIPTION:\nIn a joint presentation\, Tim and Maanya will discuss anecdotes from COP24\, tying their experiences and take-aways to the current US climate policy landscape and opportunities/challenges for future progress. Specifically\, they will draw lessons from the negotiations on economic diversification\, the just transition\, and science-inclusive policy and direct suggestions towards US stakeholders which may be applied in local climate work.

SUMMARY:Presentation:UM Psychology Community Talk
DESCRIPTION:Sickness and memory: How the immune system changes your brain.\n\nABSTRACT:\nMemory is critical for the ability to function in the world. By storing and retrieving information about the relationships between places\, events\, and outcomes\, our memories allow us to adjust our behavior to act in accordance with the current situation. We use our memory to navigate around our environment\, efficiently finding our way to work and back home\; to avoid dangerous places and things\, to find food\, and to recognize families\, friends and colleagues. This central role of memory in our everyday lives means that disorders of memory are particularly impactful. Deficits in memory are one of the first and most notable symptoms in Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias\, because they severely impact the ability for individuals to function independently in the world. Excessively strong memories are also problematic. For example\, persistent memories of trauma contribute to post-traumatic stress disorder\, leading to individuals avoiding places that trigger retrieval of those memory. But how do memory processes go bad? One thing we know about memory systems is that many different factors in our lives can change how well memory is stored. Stress can make some memories stronger\, and some memories weaker. Illness also changes how well we can learn and remember information. This flexibility in how memory systems work also means that they are vulnerable to disruption by stress and sickness. In this talk I will describe how changes in immune signaling during sickness can interfere with memory formation and discuss this in terms of both post-traumatic stress disorder and dementia.\n\n\n\nBIO:\nNatalie Tronson is an Assistant Professor of Psychology at the University of Michigan. After her undergraduate degree from the University of New South Wales\, in Australia\, Dr. Tronson moved to the United States and completed her PhD at Yale University\, followed by a post-doctoral position at Northwestern University. Her research focuses on how the brain stores and retrieves memory\, how memory is changed during stress and illness\, and sex differences in these processes. Dr. Tronson’s research combines behavioral approaches and molecular analyses in an animal model of memory\, with the goal of identifying new ways to prevent and treat memory disorders including post-traumatic stress disorder and dementia.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Impressions in Pastel
DESCRIPTION:Sharon Will’s commitment to painting is to capture the simple\, everyday beauty around her in her native Michigan and beyond. She is passionate about painting plein air (outdoors) whenever possible\, as she feels the direct observation from life is the best teacher to truly see the subtleties of light and color in nature. Working on sanded paper\, her process begins with a pastel and alcohol/mineral spirits under-painting wash to establish value and color. Soft pastel is applied in layers\, often in contrasting color and temperatures for vibrancy. Over her 35-year career in painting\, Will has won numerous national awards. She also operates a custom framing business from her home/studio in Washington Township and teaches occasional workshops.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:she was here\, once
DESCRIPTION:The mobility and displacement of the Black body\, from port to holding cell\, to ward and out\, is a history that is embedded in our communities socially\, culturally and geographically. Alluding to feelings of pain\, otherness\, power and triumph\, \"she was here\, once\" features work that illustrates a moment of remembrance and reflection on the women who have roamed these spaces before us.\n\nIn summer 2018\, artist Nastassja Swift organized a collaborative workshop and public performance in her home city of Richmond\, Virginia. Using a range of choreographed movement\, sound\, and solidarity\, eight Black women and girls\, wearing large needle felted wool masks\, traced the ancestral footprints of the arrival of the Black body in Richmond. The 3.5 mile walk began in Shockoe Bottom (the site of the importation of slaves into Richmond\, and one of the largest sources of slave trade in America) and concluded in the Jackson Ward neighborhood (one of the largest Black communities in Richmond).\n\nThe multi-layered piece has produced a short film\, mini documentary\, photography\, and performance masks\, on display in her solo exhibition\, \"she was here\, once\" in Lane Hall.\n\nLane Hall Gallery is open to the public weekdays from 8am - 4pm. Class visits are encouraged.\n\nAccessibility: Ramp and elevator access at the E. Washington Street entrance (by the loading dock). There are accessible restrooms on the south end of Lane Hall\, on each floor of the building. A gender neutral restroom is available on the first floor.\n\nContact Heidi Bennett\, IRWG Event Planner (heidiab@umich.edu) with questions about this exhibition.\n\nCosponsors: Department of Women's Studies\, Stamps School of Art & Design\, Department of English\, Art History\, Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies\, Center for the Education of Women+

SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:Whine\, Werk\, & Roll: The Art of the Lapa
DESCRIPTION:The lap\, worn around the waist\, is the uniform of the African dancer. At its simplest it is a rectangular piece of cloth\, at its most elegant it is a beautiful skirt made of different colors\, textures\, and patterns. Whine\, Werk\, and Roll: the Art of the Lapa celebrates this utilitarian object of beauty and the craftsmanship of the men and women who sew their seams.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection
DESCRIPTION:The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts\, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects\; bilingualism in Egypt\; books read by the Egyptian monks\; and the works of Shenoute the Great\, the most important author of Coptic literature.\n\nThis exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.\n\nJoin us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Paved with Good Intentions
DESCRIPTION:In keeping with artist David Opdyke’s previous work\, this site-specific installation serves as a critique of U.S. culture and politics. In an era of fake news and daily hyperbole\, Opdyke literally changes the picture by hand painting on 528 vintage postcards of well-known American landmarks and destinations. The postcards are assembled into a large mural--a vast gridded landscape beset by environmental chaos. Each card is placed to fit into the overall image\, and carefully modified with the gouache to show a realistically rendered piece of the overall turmoil.\n\nThe installation also features animated shorts and script-driven video\, which take place within the visual confines of one or more postcards. The animation is inspired\, in part\, by Terry Gilliam’s animation work on Monty Python’s \"Flying Circus\" and by the classical music sound effects in the Road Runner cartoons.\n\nAbout David Opdyke:\nDavid Opdyke is a draughtsman\, sculptor\, and animator known for his trenchant political send-ups of American culture. Born in Schenectady\, NY in 1969\, he graduated from the University of Cincinnati with a degree in painting and sculpture. His work is informed by the massive industrial and corporate restructuring he witnessed growing up\, namely the abandonment of the city center by manufacturing giants General Electric and ALCO. As GE shifted resources to neighboring Niskayuna\, the disparities became hard for Opdyke to ignore. Massive\, decaying factories\, an empty interstate loop\, and unemployment were downtown\; new streets\, expensive homes\, sushi and shopping malls were in the suburbs.\n\nFor 20 years Opdyke worked as a scenic painter and architectural model-maker. Ranging from intricate miniature constructions to room-sized installations\, his artwork explores globalization\, consumerism\, and civilization’s abusive relationship with the environment.\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

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:Marisa Morán Jahn: The Mighty and the Mythic
DESCRIPTION:Marisa Morán Jahn: The Mighty and the Mythic\nJanuary 24\, 2019 – March 2\, 2019\n\nStamps Gallery is proud to present The Mighty and the Mythic\, a solo exhibition of work by renowned social practice artist Marisa Morán Jahn. For the first time\, The Mighty and the Mythic brings together three key projects — CareForce (2012– ongoing)\, Bibliobandido (2010–ongoing)\, and MIRROR | MASK (2017–ongoing) — that highlight her deep and meaningful collaborations with low-wage immigrants\, caregivers\, and youth. Jahn describes her use of play and humor as essential tools that enable her and her collaborators to portray their lives with dignity\, critique power\, and build momentum within their community. Jahn’s practice is deeply informed by her own experiences growing up as a second-generation immigrant of Chinese and Ecuadorian heritage. For Jahn home was not a fixed place but an adaptation itself. Her varied vocational past as a schoolteacher\, caretaker\, woodshop cleaner-upper\, lumber hauler\, community organizer\, and now university professor and mother informs the urgency in her work to find common ground between (her-)self and (an-)other\, through the concepts of care and empathy. Each of the works in this exhibition highlights her deep engagement with the stories of everyday people\, mundane routines\, and a desire to build an inclusive society. Marisa Morán Jahn: the Mighty and the Mythic celebrates and acknowledges the daily struggles and minor victories of the 99 percent that make up the spirit of our society in the twenty-first century.\n\nArtwork by Marisa Morán Jahn: The Driver (detail)\, from MIRROR | MASK series\, featuring Darlyne Komukama. 2017\, Uganda

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:ChE Seminar Series: Chibueze Amanchukwu
DESCRIPTION:Stanford University\n“Controlling Electrochemistry using Electrolyte Design”\n\nABSTRACT\nTo accelerate the electrification of transport\, batteries based on a lithium metal anode and an oxygen/sulfur-based cathode with high energy densities have elicited great interest. However\, electrolyte selection and degradation has limited the maximal energy that can be extracted\, and reduced cycle life. In this talk\, I will discuss my work on developing small molecule and polymer-based composite electrolytes that can decouple instability from ionic transport. I show novel ionic transport processes within these electrolyte architectures\, and their ability to control electrochemical reactions at both the negative and positive electrode surfaces. Firstly\, a gel polymer electrolyte is designed to control the oxygen reduction pathway in a lithium-air battery\, and secondly\, a small molecule electrolyte mixture is designed to reduce the overpotentials required for lithium metal deposition and stripping. Using the electrolyte to control electrochemical reactions provides an additional knob for the design of high energy density systems.  \n\n\nSHORT BIO\nChibueze Amanchukwu is a TomKat Center Postdoctoral Fellow in Sustainable Energy at Stanford University. His expertise involves the study of ionic transport processes in electrolytes for energy storage applications. Under the supervision of professor Zhenan Bao at Stanford and in collaboration with professor Yi Cui\, his work has focused on understanding ionic transport processes in small molecule electrolytes and controlling lithium metal deposition and stripping. During his PhD with professor Paula Hammond at MIT and collaboration with professor Yang Shao-Horn\, he studied degradation processes and ionic transport in polymer electrolytes for lithium-air batteries. He is broadly interested in electrolytes and electrochemistry.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Biopsychology Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:Brain Extracellular Matrix: Not Just Fluffy Filler\n\nNeurons and glia don’t just float in empty space\; like all other organs\, the brain contains a complex meshwork of sugars and proteins known as the extracellular matrix (ECM). Understanding how brain ECM contributes to neural functioning\, disease states and animal behaviours is a growing field of research\, and one that holds a great deal of therapeutic potential. This talk will briefly cover the history of brain ECM work\, explain how brain ECM can contribute to cognitive and anxiety-like behaviours\, and give insight into this relatively understudied but important biological substrate.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Universal Declaration of Human Rights: Linocuts by Meredith Stern
DESCRIPTION:On December 10\, 1948\, in the aftermath of the devastation of World War II\, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a roadmap to guarantee the rights of every individual everywhere. The complete Declaration is comprised of a Preamble and 30 Articles. In honor of the 60th anniversary of this document\, we are exhibiting 14 Articles in the form of illustrated prints by Meredith Stern. These contemporary prints are intended both to make people aware of this rights roadmap and to show its urgent relevance in our contemporary political moment.\n\nMeredith Stern is an artist currently based in Providence\, RI\, and a member of the Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative\, a decentralized network of 30 artists committed to social\, environmental\, and political engagement. Stern created a total of 28 sets of these linocut prints in 2017\, of which one is held in the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the Special Collections Research Center.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:\"Taxing Identities\": The Impact of 'Pardon Taxes' on Converso Identity
DESCRIPTION:This lecture will reassess Converso-Sephardi identities\, especially in early modern Portugal. Stuczynski will explore the archeology of the term \"men of the nation\,\" as the Portuguese New Christians or Conversos were named\, by searching its chronological appearance\, function\, and semantic field. He will also discuss the extant lists of Converso \"pardon tax payers\" and those who tried to prove their non-inclusion in these lists through dispensations in order to be dissociated from the \"men of the nation\" group. This lecture will analyze these sources in a way that attempts to change the way we perceive Converso identity. Instead of depicting it in passive terms of imposed and/or inherited ethnicity\, or in loose terms of Converso memory\, an analysis of the lists of tax pardon payers and documents of pardon dispensations implies an engaging construction of Converso identities Stuczynski calls: \"negotiations of belonging.\"\n\nThere is both an accessible elevator and gender-neutral restroom on the first and second floor.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:AAOSA-OSUM Seminar: All-Fiber-Integrated Super-Continuum Sources with High Power in the Visible and Infrared Wavelengths from 0.47 to 12 𝜇m
DESCRIPTION:All-fiber integrated super-continuum (SC) sources are described based on a platform architecture that can operate in the visible\, near-infrared\, short-wave infrared\, mid-wave infrared and long-wave infrared\, with demonstrated SC wavelengths ranging from 0.47 to 12 microns. Modulation instability initiated SC generation leads to a simple SC source with no moving parts and that uses off-the-shelf components from the mature telecommunications and fiber optics industry. The resulting light sources are basically a cascade of fibers pumped by fiber-pigtailed laser diodes and some drive and control electronics\; thus\, the SC sources have the potential to be cost-effective\, compact and reliable. Starting from fused silica fibers\, the SC spectrum can be extended to shorter or longer wavelengths by cascading fibers with appropriate dispersion and/or transparency. As one example\, we demonstrate a long-wave infrared SC source that generates a continuous spectrum from 1.57 to 12 microns using a fiber cascade comprising fused silica fiber followed by ZBLAN fluoride fiber followed by sulfide fiber and\, finally\, a high-numerical-aperture selenide fiber. The time-averaged output power is 417 mW at 33% duty cycle\, and we observe a near-diffraction-limit\, single spatial-mode beam across the entire spectral range. A prototype is described that is based on a three-layer architecture with a form factor of 16.7”x10”x5.7” and that plugs into a standard wall plug. This SC prototype has been used in a number of field tests as the active illuminator for stand-off FTIR system over distances of 5 to 25m\, thus enabling identification of targets or samples based on their chemical signature.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Amelia Worsley Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Many solitaries populate Charlotte Smith’s poems: perhaps the most famous are the hermits in her poem Beachy Head. In this talk\, I follow Smith’s solitaries through the lonely landscapes of her poetry—along riverbanks\, into caves\, and finally into the sea—tracing how she repeatedly uses the image of the “shell” as a conceit for the poet’s lyre\, in order to theorize lyric. Although Smith seems to emphasize solitude as singularity\, I show how she makes supposedly singular voices multiple. Allusion\, quotation\, and self-quotation abound\, constituting a playful\, echoic poetics\, in which the same lines are sometimes voiced by different characters\, echoing across the distance between different texts. Her vision of loneliness questions the assumption that singular minds are constrained by singular bodies. Challenging our understanding of Romantic loneliness\, Smith presents a model for how Romantic poets were lonely together. \n\nAmelia Worsley is an Assistant Professor of English at Amherst College. Her current book project\, Lonely Poets and their Publics: Being Alone Together in British Romantic Poetry\, focuses on Mary Robinson\, Charlotte Smith\, Samuel Taylor Coleridge\, William Wordsworth\, Robert Southey\, and various abolition poets. She has also written articles about loneliness in Shakespeare\, Milton\, and D.W. Winnicott.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO / CM Theory Seminar | Accurate Modeling of Charging Energies in Systems with >10\,000 Electrons with StochasticGW  
DESCRIPTION:Stochastic Quantum Chemistry (SQC) is a new paradigm we developed for electronic structure and dynamics\, which rewrites traditional quantum chemistry as stochastic averages\, avoiding the steep power law scaling of traditional methods.  As an example I will discuss Stochastic GW (SGW).  The GW technique is known to achieve high accuracy\, with only a 0.1-0.3 eV experiment-theory deviation for affinities and ionization energies.  SGW reproduces the results of traditional deterministic GW for small systems\, but also handles very large systems\; as an example\, we easily calculated affinities\, charging energies\, and photoelectron spectroscopy for Si clusters and Si and P platelets with up to 11000 valence electrons\, for clusters with 40 thiophene molecules\, and for periodic systems with very large supercells.  These systems are significantly bigger than any calculable in existing approaches\, so that SGW makes a quantum jump in the ability to calculate accurate electronic affinities and potential energies for large molecules.  We will specifically discuss recent improvements in the algorithm and implementation which makes SGW superior to traditional techniques already  for tetracene\, and reduces experiment-theory deviations to ~0.1eV.\n

DESCRIPTION:Positive Links Speaker Series\nCreating More Inclusive Workplaces in an Era of Discord – The Power of Helping Across Differences\nStephanie J. Creary\n\nTuesday\, January 29\, 2019\n4:00-5:00 p.m.\nFree and open to the public.\n\nMichigan Ross Campus\nRoss Building\n701 Tappan \nRobertson Auditorium\nAnn Arbor\, MI 48109-1234\n\nRegister: http://myumi.ch/a0mnp\n\nPositive Links:\nThe Positive Links Speaker Series\, presented by Michigan Ross’ Center for Positive Organizations\, offers inspiring and practical research-based strategies for building organizations that are high performing and bring out the best in its people. Attendees learn from leading positive organizational scholars and connect with our community of academics\, students\, staff\, and leaders.\n\nPositive Links sessions take place at Michigan Ross\, and are free and open to the public.\n\nAbout the talk:\nMany of us want to work in organizations that enable us to draw on our unique perspectives to contribute and become our best work selves. Yet\, sometimes our differences can make us feel uncomfortable\, which can challenge our ability to engage with one another in healthy and productive ways. In this presentation\, Creary will share a tool that she has developed from her research on multiple identities and helping at work that is designed to help people build more effective relationships across difference at work. The audience will have the opportunity to use the tool in real-time to create their own positive paths for making one particular work relationship across difference more effective. \n\nAbout Creary:\nStephanie J. Creary\, PhD is an Assistant Professor of Management at The Wharton School\, University of Pennsylvania. She is also an affiliated faculty member of Wharton People Analytics and a Senior Fellow of the Leonard Davis Institute of Health Economics (LDI) at the University of Pennsylvania. Previously\, she was on the faculty of Cornell University. Prior to completing her PhD degree at the Boston College School of Management\, she was a research associate at Harvard Business School and The Conference Board in NYC. \n\nCreary’s research investigates how multiple identities\, perspectives\, and experiences are engaged and used in organizations to cultivate positive identities\, improve the quality of relationships across difference\, and promote change that is positive for organizations. She studies these dynamics in a variety of situations and organizational contexts including the development and implementation of corporate diversity and inclusion initiatives\, career progression across demographic groups\, socialization practices\, and health care delivery. \n\nShe has published her research in leading management journals\, co-authored several HBS case studies on leadership and diversity\, written executive action reports on human capital for management audiences\, and has won several research and teaching awards.\n\nHost:\nJane Dutton\, co-founder of the Center for Positive Organizations\; Robert L.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:POSTPONED: The University of Michigan's Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning presents Lecture: Amanda Williams and Andres L. Hernandez\, \"PRACTICE or Holding Space for ______.\"
DESCRIPTION:Due to severe winter weather\, the University of Michigan has declared an emergency reduction in operations beginning 12:00 am Wednesday\, January 30 and extending through 7:00 am Friday\, February 1. All classes and events are cancelled for this period. As such\, the Thursday\, January 31 Penny Stamps Speaker Series Talk with Amanda Williams and Andres L. Hernandez has been postponed. Additional details will be posted as they are available.\n\nAmanda Williams is a visual artist who trained as an architect. Her practice blurs the distinction between art and architecture through works that employ color as a way to draw attention to the political complexities of race\, place and value in cities. The landscapes in which she operates are the visual residue of the invisible policies and forces that have misshapen most inner cities. Williams’s installations\, paintings\, video\, and works on paper seek to inspire new ways of looking at the familiar\, and in the process\, raise questions about the state of urban space in America. Amanda has exhibited widely\, including the 2018 Venice Architecture Biennale\, a solo exhibition at the MCA Chicago\, The Art Institute of Chicago and the Pulitzer Arts Foundation in St. Louis. She is a a 2018 United States Artists Fellow\, a Joan Mitchell Foundation Painters &amp\; Sculptors grantee\, an Efroymson Family Arts Fellow\, a Leadership Greater Chicago Fellow and a member of the multidisciplinary Museum Design team for the Obama Presidential Center. She is this year’s Bill and Stephanie Sick Distinguished Visiting Professor at the School of the Art Institute Chicago and has previously served as a Visiting Assistant Professor of Architecture at Cornell University and Washington University in St. Louis. She lives and works on Chicago’s south side.\n\nAndres L. Hernandez is a Chicago-based artist\, designer and educator who re-imagines the environments we inhabit\, and explores the potential of spaces for public dialogue and social action.  Hernandez is a 2018 Efroymson Contemporary Arts Fellow\, and his recent projects include a 2018-2019 visiting artist residency with the University of Arizona School of Art\, and Thrival Geographies (In My Mind I See A Line)\, a commissioned installation in collaboration with artists Amanda Williams and Shani Crowe for the U.S. Pavilion at the 2018 Venice Architecture Biennale. Hernandez is co-founder of the Revival Arts Collective\, founder and director of the Urban Vacancy Research Initiative\, and exhibition design team member for the Museum of the Obama Presidential Center in Chicago\, IL.  He received a Bachelor of Architecture degree from Cornell University and a Master of Arts from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago\, where he is an Associate Professor.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Impressions in Pastel
DESCRIPTION:Sharon Will’s commitment to painting is to capture the simple\, everyday beauty around her in her native Michigan and beyond. She is passionate about painting plein air (outdoors) whenever possible\, as she feels the direct observation from life is the best teacher to truly see the subtleties of light and color in nature. Working on sanded paper\, her process begins with a pastel and alcohol/mineral spirits under-painting wash to establish value and color. Soft pastel is applied in layers\, often in contrasting color and temperatures for vibrancy. Over her 35-year career in painting\, Will has won numerous national awards. She also operates a custom framing business from her home/studio in Washington Township and teaches occasional workshops.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Mystery Train: Oil on Linen
DESCRIPTION:Gregg Chadwick grew up with the rails of America in his blood. His grandfather Arthur Desch stoked coal in steam engines before becoming a train engineer on the Jersey Central Line.

From Junior Parker\, Elvis Presley\, Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash\, to arts writers and directors Greil Marcus and Jim Jarmusch\, the enduring mythos of America and its legacy has been wrapped up in the blues notes of the song “Mystery Train”. Chadwick’s current series of paintings\, Mystery Train\, is steeped in the powerful echoes of those machine days.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:she was here\, once
DESCRIPTION:The mobility and displacement of the Black body\, from port to holding cell\, to ward and out\, is a history that is embedded in our communities socially\, culturally and geographically. Alluding to feelings of pain\, otherness\, power and triumph\, \"she was here\, once\" features work that illustrates a moment of remembrance and reflection on the women who have roamed these spaces before us.\n\nIn summer 2018\, artist Nastassja Swift organized a collaborative workshop and public performance in her home city of Richmond\, Virginia. Using a range of choreographed movement\, sound\, and solidarity\, eight Black women and girls\, wearing large needle felted wool masks\, traced the ancestral footprints of the arrival of the Black body in Richmond. The 3.5 mile walk began in Shockoe Bottom (the site of the importation of slaves into Richmond\, and one of the largest sources of slave trade in America) and concluded in the Jackson Ward neighborhood (one of the largest Black communities in Richmond).\n\nThe multi-layered piece has produced a short film\, mini documentary\, photography\, and performance masks\, on display in her solo exhibition\, \"she was here\, once\" in Lane Hall.\n\nLane Hall Gallery is open to the public weekdays from 8am - 4pm. Class visits are encouraged.\n\nAccessibility: Ramp and elevator access at the E. Washington Street entrance (by the loading dock). There are accessible restrooms on the south end of Lane Hall\, on each floor of the building. A gender neutral restroom is available on the first floor.\n\nContact Heidi Bennett\, IRWG Event Planner (heidiab@umich.edu) with questions about this exhibition.\n\nCosponsors: Department of Women's Studies\, Stamps School of Art & Design\, Department of English\, Art History\, Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies\, Center for the Education of Women+

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection
DESCRIPTION:The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts\, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects\; bilingualism in Egypt\; books read by the Egyptian monks\; and the works of Shenoute the Great\, the most important author of Coptic literature.\n\nThis exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.\n\nJoin us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Paved with Good Intentions
DESCRIPTION:In keeping with artist David Opdyke’s previous work\, this site-specific installation serves as a critique of U.S. culture and politics. In an era of fake news and daily hyperbole\, Opdyke literally changes the picture by hand painting on 528 vintage postcards of well-known American landmarks and destinations. The postcards are assembled into a large mural--a vast gridded landscape beset by environmental chaos. Each card is placed to fit into the overall image\, and carefully modified with the gouache to show a realistically rendered piece of the overall turmoil.\n\nThe installation also features animated shorts and script-driven video\, which take place within the visual confines of one or more postcards. The animation is inspired\, in part\, by Terry Gilliam’s animation work on Monty Python’s \"Flying Circus\" and by the classical music sound effects in the Road Runner cartoons.\n\nAbout David Opdyke:\nDavid Opdyke is a draughtsman\, sculptor\, and animator known for his trenchant political send-ups of American culture. Born in Schenectady\, NY in 1969\, he graduated from the University of Cincinnati with a degree in painting and sculpture. His work is informed by the massive industrial and corporate restructuring he witnessed growing up\, namely the abandonment of the city center by manufacturing giants General Electric and ALCO. As GE shifted resources to neighboring Niskayuna\, the disparities became hard for Opdyke to ignore. Massive\, decaying factories\, an empty interstate loop\, and unemployment were downtown\; new streets\, expensive homes\, sushi and shopping malls were in the suburbs.\n\nFor 20 years Opdyke worked as a scenic painter and architectural model-maker. Ranging from intricate miniature constructions to room-sized installations\, his artwork explores globalization\, consumerism\, and civilization’s abusive relationship with the environment.\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

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:Marisa Morán Jahn: The Mighty and the Mythic
DESCRIPTION:Marisa Morán Jahn: The Mighty and the Mythic\nJanuary 24\, 2019 – March 2\, 2019\n\nStamps Gallery is proud to present The Mighty and the Mythic\, a solo exhibition of work by renowned social practice artist Marisa Morán Jahn. For the first time\, The Mighty and the Mythic brings together three key projects — CareForce (2012– ongoing)\, Bibliobandido (2010–ongoing)\, and MIRROR | MASK (2017–ongoing) — that highlight her deep and meaningful collaborations with low-wage immigrants\, caregivers\, and youth. Jahn describes her use of play and humor as essential tools that enable her and her collaborators to portray their lives with dignity\, critique power\, and build momentum within their community. Jahn’s practice is deeply informed by her own experiences growing up as a second-generation immigrant of Chinese and Ecuadorian heritage. For Jahn home was not a fixed place but an adaptation itself. Her varied vocational past as a schoolteacher\, caretaker\, woodshop cleaner-upper\, lumber hauler\, community organizer\, and now university professor and mother informs the urgency in her work to find common ground between (her-)self and (an-)other\, through the concepts of care and empathy. Each of the works in this exhibition highlights her deep engagement with the stories of everyday people\, mundane routines\, and a desire to build an inclusive society. Marisa Morán Jahn: the Mighty and the Mythic celebrates and acknowledges the daily struggles and minor victories of the 99 percent that make up the spirit of our society in the twenty-first century.\n\nArtwork by Marisa Morán Jahn: The Driver (detail)\, from MIRROR | MASK series\, featuring Darlyne Komukama. 2017\, Uganda

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Paul Rand: The Designer's Task
DESCRIPTION:Paul Rand's visionary conceptions of brand identity \nPaul Rand was a giant of American design\, whose influential career spanned the second half of the twentieth century. His visionary and pithy conceptions of corporate and non-profit brand identities—though often graphically minimal—embody the artist’s complex philosophy\, interest in modernist aesthetics\, and singular wit. This exhibition features posters\, book covers\, and packaging designs from Rand’s beginnings as a pro bono designer for arts and culture publications like Direction magazine to his decades of crafting trailblazing corporate design for companies such as IBM. Paul Rand: The Designer’s Task affords viewers the opportunity to explore the genre of graphic design within the context of the art museum and examine how Rand’s intellectual process and impact on visual culture developed over time.\n\n

DESCRIPTION:A narrative of Ryoichi's archaeological work \nThe story of Japanese archaeologist Ryoichi and evidence of his worldwide excavations are explored by Patrick Nagatani in this series of photographs. Nagatani presents a narrative of Ryoichi’s archaeological work\, supported by images of excavation sites\, unearthed artifacts\, and Ryoichi’s own journal pages. According to the photographs\, Ryoichi discovered evidence of an automobile culture buried at sites across several continents: Stonehenge\, the Grand Canyon\, and a necropolis in China. This provocative and playful series compels viewers to reflect on how photographs and institutions\, such as museums\, shape our knowledge of the past and present.\n\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Brown Bag Seminars | Testing Models of Dark Matter and Modifications to Gravity using Local Milky Way Observables
DESCRIPTION:Galactic rotation curves are often considered the first robust evidence for the existence of dark matter. However\, even in the presence of a dark matter halo\, other galactic-scale observations\, such as the Baryonic Tully-Fisher Relation and the Radial Acceleration Relation\, remain challenging to explain. This has motivated various models of dark matter as well as long-distance\, infrared (IR) modifications to gravity as an alternative to the dark matter hypothesis. We present a framework to test a general class of such models using local Milky Way observables\, including the vertical acceleration field\, the rotation curve\, the baryonic surface density\, and the stellar disk profile. In this talk I will focus on models that predict scalar amplifications of gravity\, i.e.\, models that increase the magnitude but do not change the direction of the gravitational acceleration. MOdified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) as well as superfluid dark matter are examples. We find that models of this type are in tension with observations of the Milky Way scale radius and bulge mass and that cold non-interacting dark matter provides a better fit to the data. We conclude that models that result in a MOND-like force struggle to simultaneously explain both the rotational velocity and vertical motion of nearby stars in the Milky Way. A future publication will extend this analysis to include other models such as Strongly Interacting Dark Matter (SIDM).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Medieval Lunch. Blood Runs Through It: The Indeterminate World of Loyalty in Japan's Warrior Society
DESCRIPTION:How did fighting men\, high and low\, cope with the reality of uncertainty\, especially unpredictable human relations in the age of violence (14-16c)? By defining war beyond the battlefield to a more dynamic “war system\,” we can see how the human anatomy’s most vital liquid\, blood\, became implicated in reorganizing the social and military landscape of the late medieval archipelago. The evolving practice of “keppan\,” or “blood seal\,” applied near or on one’s signature at the end of a document\, promoted a sense of order for the warriors. The practice of keppan spread alongside the discourse of disembowelment\, as did the gendered meaning that blood was acquiring.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Towards Transformative Change: Institutional Self-Assessment and Relationship Building Between U-M and MSIs
DESCRIPTION:Minority Serving Institutions have and continue to play an integral role in granting access\, building knowledge\, and empowering change that impacts both individuals and society. The Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King\, whose legacy we commemorate as a critical figure in the advancement of civil rights and social justice\, is an alumnus of Morehouse College—an MSI. Implicit in Dr. King’s push for righteousness\, peace\, and justice was an immense desire to transform how a nation and ultimately the world engaged with one another. It is in this spirit that we frame this forum and engagement with Minority Serving Institutions—from transactional to transformational/transformative change. Featured speakers will provide a broad overview of the MSI landscape\, share their experiences with developing relationships with MSIs\, and share information on how to do an institutional self-assessment before seeking to partner with MSIs. This session will serve as the first in a series of forums that foster discussion on the socio-historical and contemporary state of MSIs\, insights from U-M units with relationships with MSIs\, and practical information and resources for engaging MSIs.\nPre-registration is required at https://myumi.ch/JgPe8.\nDue to the expectedly low temperatures\, Towards Transformative Change: Institutional Self-assessment and Relationship Building Between U-M and MSIs\, scheduled for January 30 will be rescheduled for another date.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Universal Declaration of Human Rights: Linocuts by Meredith Stern
DESCRIPTION:On December 10\, 1948\, in the aftermath of the devastation of World War II\, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a roadmap to guarantee the rights of every individual everywhere. The complete Declaration is comprised of a Preamble and 30 Articles. In honor of the 60th anniversary of this document\, we are exhibiting 14 Articles in the form of illustrated prints by Meredith Stern. These contemporary prints are intended both to make people aware of this rights roadmap and to show its urgent relevance in our contemporary political moment.\n\nMeredith Stern is an artist currently based in Providence\, RI\, and a member of the Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative\, a decentralized network of 30 artists committed to social\, environmental\, and political engagement. Stern created a total of 28 sets of these linocut prints in 2017\, of which one is held in the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the Special Collections Research Center.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CANCELED: Laser Wakefield Driven X-ray Sources in Canada: A Brilliant Future for Agriculture and Global Food Security
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: There is need for stand-alone systems for screening plants and seeds at production sites. I will discuss devel-opment of high throughput X-ray phase contrast plant imaging and screening using LWFA-based X-ray sources (30 keV-80 keV). This effort is an initiative led by the Global Institute for Food Security at the U of Saskatchewan to establish the correlation between the phenotypic expression of a plant and its adaptation to biotic and abiotic environmental stress. Intense hard X-ray beams (5-50 µJ/shot at 40 keV) are generated by maintaining the laser beam ultra-relativistic self-guiding over long gas jet (cm). I will describe experiments with our new laser facility (up to 7 J in 18 fs at 2.5Hz) and discuss empirical scaling laws correlating the X-ray photon number to the laser and gas jet parameters. High throughput X-ray phase contrast imaging and 3D tomography were realized with average X-ray power (40 keV) of 10 µW-50 µW. We demonstrated seeing very small transparent objects embedded in inhomogeneous and anisotropic thick environment (including soil). Our scaling indicates that with a 1 PW laser a 40 keV X-ray beam with a 1 mJ per shot can be produced and that 1 Gray/shot dose could be achieved in a bio-system.\n\nAbout the Speaker: Jean Claude Kieffer is Professor at INRS since 1990 and fellow of the Royal Society of Canada. He was Director of the INRS-EMT Center 2006 to 2011\, and was the Canada Research Chair (Tier I) in ultrafast photonics from 2002 to 2016. He established in 2002 the Advanced Laser Light Source (ALLS) facility in Varennes (Qc)\, a Canadian National infrastructure. He is currently a member of the board of the Canadian Synchrotron and Science & Technology senior advisor for laser and optics for the President (M. Alain Rousset) of the Aquitaine Region Council (France). He is Vice President of the board of the Aquitaine technology transfer platform Alphanov (France). His research interests include plasma physics\, ultrafast lasers\, high intensity laser-matter interaction\, particle acceleration and ultrafast x-ray sources and their societal applications. He manages the 600 TW short pulse laser (10J\, 18fs) facility at INRS in Varennes. He is exploring the propagation of intense lasers in air for i) energy and wave guiding for homeland security and ii) remote environmental monitoring. He is also developing intense X-ray sources for Global Food Security.\n\nThe seminar will be web-simulcast.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Department of Computational Medicine & Bioinformatics Weekly Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Robert A. Coleman\, PhD (Asst. Prof.\, Department of Anatomy and Structural Biology in the Gruss-Lipper Biophotonics Center at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine) will present the following abstract:  Years of biochemical experiments have led to the identification of the eukaryotic transcription machinery and a static view of gene regulation.  However\, mechanisms controlling the dynamics of transcriptional regulation inside a crowded nucleus remains poorly understood.  Recent advances in single molecule imaging have begun to shine light on these mechanisms\, providing an unprecedented dynamic view of transcriptional regulation in live cells.  We and others have found that transcription factors form dynamic hubs of activity in select nuclear compartments.  I will discuss how formation of these hubs and recognition of genomic targets is regulated by interactions between transcription factors and the histone tails of chromatin.  Transcription factors cycle on and off of their chromatin targets within these hubs on the order of seconds that likely reflect dynamic rates of chromatin remodeling\, RNA Polymerase II convoy formation and transcriptional output of a gene.  These findings are put into context describing how expression of the p21 cell cycle arrest gene is dynamically regulated by the tumor suppressor p53 protein and chromatin remodelers.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Image Vessels: Blown Glass
DESCRIPTION:Sculptor Herb Babcock creates both monumental and human-scale work using metal\, glass and stone. In the early years of the American Studio Glass Movement (1974-1984) Babcock’s sculptural and painterly expression utilized the vessel format. By layering color — both mass and line — between gathers of clear\, molten glass\, the full compositions are viewed through the vessel as three-dimensional. Babcock is Professor Emeritus\, College for Creative Studies. He was Section Chair of the Glass Department where he taught for 40 years. He lives in Ann Arbor and built a new studio near U-M north campus in 2016.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Impressions in Pastel
DESCRIPTION:Sharon Will’s commitment to painting is to capture the simple\, everyday beauty around her in her native Michigan and beyond. She is passionate about painting plein air (outdoors) whenever possible\, as she feels the direct observation from life is the best teacher to truly see the subtleties of light and color in nature. Working on sanded paper\, her process begins with a pastel and alcohol/mineral spirits under-painting wash to establish value and color. Soft pastel is applied in layers\, often in contrasting color and temperatures for vibrancy. Over her 35-year career in painting\, Will has won numerous national awards. She also operates a custom framing business from her home/studio in Washington Township and teaches occasional workshops.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:she was here\, once
DESCRIPTION:The mobility and displacement of the Black body\, from port to holding cell\, to ward and out\, is a history that is embedded in our communities socially\, culturally and geographically. Alluding to feelings of pain\, otherness\, power and triumph\, \"she was here\, once\" features work that illustrates a moment of remembrance and reflection on the women who have roamed these spaces before us.\n\nIn summer 2018\, artist Nastassja Swift organized a collaborative workshop and public performance in her home city of Richmond\, Virginia. Using a range of choreographed movement\, sound\, and solidarity\, eight Black women and girls\, wearing large needle felted wool masks\, traced the ancestral footprints of the arrival of the Black body in Richmond. The 3.5 mile walk began in Shockoe Bottom (the site of the importation of slaves into Richmond\, and one of the largest sources of slave trade in America) and concluded in the Jackson Ward neighborhood (one of the largest Black communities in Richmond).\n\nThe multi-layered piece has produced a short film\, mini documentary\, photography\, and performance masks\, on display in her solo exhibition\, \"she was here\, once\" in Lane Hall.\n\nLane Hall Gallery is open to the public weekdays from 8am - 4pm. Class visits are encouraged.\n\nAccessibility: Ramp and elevator access at the E. Washington Street entrance (by the loading dock). There are accessible restrooms on the south end of Lane Hall\, on each floor of the building. A gender neutral restroom is available on the first floor.\n\nContact Heidi Bennett\, IRWG Event Planner (heidiab@umich.edu) with questions about this exhibition.\n\nCosponsors: Department of Women's Studies\, Stamps School of Art & Design\, Department of English\, Art History\, Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies\, Center for the Education of Women+

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection
DESCRIPTION:The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts\, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects\; bilingualism in Egypt\; books read by the Egyptian monks\; and the works of Shenoute the Great\, the most important author of Coptic literature.\n\nThis exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.\n\nJoin us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Paved with Good Intentions
DESCRIPTION:In keeping with artist David Opdyke’s previous work\, this site-specific installation serves as a critique of U.S. culture and politics. In an era of fake news and daily hyperbole\, Opdyke literally changes the picture by hand painting on 528 vintage postcards of well-known American landmarks and destinations. The postcards are assembled into a large mural--a vast gridded landscape beset by environmental chaos. Each card is placed to fit into the overall image\, and carefully modified with the gouache to show a realistically rendered piece of the overall turmoil.\n\nThe installation also features animated shorts and script-driven video\, which take place within the visual confines of one or more postcards. The animation is inspired\, in part\, by Terry Gilliam’s animation work on Monty Python’s \"Flying Circus\" and by the classical music sound effects in the Road Runner cartoons.\n\nAbout David Opdyke:\nDavid Opdyke is a draughtsman\, sculptor\, and animator known for his trenchant political send-ups of American culture. Born in Schenectady\, NY in 1969\, he graduated from the University of Cincinnati with a degree in painting and sculpture. His work is informed by the massive industrial and corporate restructuring he witnessed growing up\, namely the abandonment of the city center by manufacturing giants General Electric and ALCO. As GE shifted resources to neighboring Niskayuna\, the disparities became hard for Opdyke to ignore. Massive\, decaying factories\, an empty interstate loop\, and unemployment were downtown\; new streets\, expensive homes\, sushi and shopping malls were in the suburbs.\n\nFor 20 years Opdyke worked as a scenic painter and architectural model-maker. Ranging from intricate miniature constructions to room-sized installations\, his artwork explores globalization\, consumerism\, and civilization’s abusive relationship with the environment.\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

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:Marisa Morán Jahn: The Mighty and the Mythic
DESCRIPTION:Marisa Morán Jahn: The Mighty and the Mythic\nJanuary 24\, 2019 – March 2\, 2019\n\nStamps Gallery is proud to present The Mighty and the Mythic\, a solo exhibition of work by renowned social practice artist Marisa Morán Jahn. For the first time\, The Mighty and the Mythic brings together three key projects — CareForce (2012– ongoing)\, Bibliobandido (2010–ongoing)\, and MIRROR | MASK (2017–ongoing) — that highlight her deep and meaningful collaborations with low-wage immigrants\, caregivers\, and youth. Jahn describes her use of play and humor as essential tools that enable her and her collaborators to portray their lives with dignity\, critique power\, and build momentum within their community. Jahn’s practice is deeply informed by her own experiences growing up as a second-generation immigrant of Chinese and Ecuadorian heritage. For Jahn home was not a fixed place but an adaptation itself. Her varied vocational past as a schoolteacher\, caretaker\, woodshop cleaner-upper\, lumber hauler\, community organizer\, and now university professor and mother informs the urgency in her work to find common ground between (her-)self and (an-)other\, through the concepts of care and empathy. Each of the works in this exhibition highlights her deep engagement with the stories of everyday people\, mundane routines\, and a desire to build an inclusive society. Marisa Morán Jahn: the Mighty and the Mythic celebrates and acknowledges the daily struggles and minor victories of the 99 percent that make up the spirit of our society in the twenty-first century.\n\nArtwork by Marisa Morán Jahn: The Driver (detail)\, from MIRROR | MASK series\, featuring Darlyne Komukama. 2017\, Uganda

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Paul Rand: The Designer's Task
DESCRIPTION:Paul Rand's visionary conceptions of brand identity \nPaul Rand was a giant of American design\, whose influential career spanned the second half of the twentieth century. His visionary and pithy conceptions of corporate and non-profit brand identities—though often graphically minimal—embody the artist’s complex philosophy\, interest in modernist aesthetics\, and singular wit. This exhibition features posters\, book covers\, and packaging designs from Rand’s beginnings as a pro bono designer for arts and culture publications like Direction magazine to his decades of crafting trailblazing corporate design for companies such as IBM. Paul Rand: The Designer’s Task affords viewers the opportunity to explore the genre of graphic design within the context of the art museum and examine how Rand’s intellectual process and impact on visual culture developed over time.\n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Proof: The Ryoichi Excavations
DESCRIPTION:A narrative of Ryoichi's archaeological work \nThe story of Japanese archaeologist Ryoichi and evidence of his worldwide excavations are explored by Patrick Nagatani in this series of photographs. Nagatani presents a narrative of Ryoichi’s archaeological work\, supported by images of excavation sites\, unearthed artifacts\, and Ryoichi’s own journal pages. According to the photographs\, Ryoichi discovered evidence of an automobile culture buried at sites across several continents: Stonehenge\, the Grand Canyon\, and a necropolis in China. This provocative and playful series compels viewers to reflect on how photographs and institutions\, such as museums\, shape our knowledge of the past and present.\n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Universal Declaration of Human Rights: Linocuts by Meredith Stern
DESCRIPTION:On December 10\, 1948\, in the aftermath of the devastation of World War II\, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a roadmap to guarantee the rights of every individual everywhere. The complete Declaration is comprised of a Preamble and 30 Articles. In honor of the 60th anniversary of this document\, we are exhibiting 14 Articles in the form of illustrated prints by Meredith Stern. These contemporary prints are intended both to make people aware of this rights roadmap and to show its urgent relevance in our contemporary political moment.\n\nMeredith Stern is an artist currently based in Providence\, RI\, and a member of the Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative\, a decentralized network of 30 artists committed to social\, environmental\, and political engagement. Stern created a total of 28 sets of these linocut prints in 2017\, of which one is held in the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the Special Collections Research Center.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Remarkable Novels II (and III)
DESCRIPTION:In March of 2018\, The New York Times Book Review featured 15 novels by women that their critics see as “opening new realms to us\, whose books suggest and embody unexplored possibilities in form\, feeling and knowledge.” They say these books set the agenda for the 21st century. So the question for this class is: what does that agenda look like? \nBefore the first meeting I will send the NYT article to new participants so they can read the short reviews of each novel. Sharon Quiroz will indicate the six books we will read in Session I. At the first meeting of Session II\, we will select the next set\, to continue with our research question. We’ll read approximately 150 pages a week\, so we can cover most novels in two to three weeks. We’ll have discussion\, small group analysis in class\, occasional lectures on style\, structure\, etc. \nThis study group for those 50 and over will meet for 90 minutes on Thursdays from January 31 through April 18.\nInstructor Sharon Quiroz has a PhD. in English\, has published poetry and short stories\, and is currently working on her second novel while she tries to sell the first one.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Astronomy Colloquium Series Presents
DESCRIPTION:\"Solar System History via Near-Earth Asteroids (...and NASA's OSIRIS-REx Space Mission)\"\n\nWe report on the current status and scientific results of NASA's OSIRIS-REx sample return mission that is visiting the B-type near-Earth asteroid (101955) Bennu. The spacecraft launched in September 2016\, arrived at Bennu in December 2018 and will survey and study the asteroid until attempting to collect a sample in the summer of 2020 and return it to Earth in 2023. What will be learned from studying and sampling one near-Earth Asteroid?\n\nNear-Earth Asteroids (NEAs) are transients that have escaped the Main Asteroid Belt and spend a paltry 10 Myr on planet-crossing orbits before hitting the Sun\, a planet or getting ejected from the Solar System. All of the various taxonomic types of asteroids are represented amongst NEAs\, but due to their chaotic orbits it is not possible to precisely retrace their history and determine where in the Main Asteroid Belt they came from. Furthermore\, km-sized NEAs\, are unlikely to have survived Solar System history intact and are expected to be reaccumulated remnants from a larger disrupted asteroid - they are often referred to as \"rubble piles\". In sum\, any given small NEA comes from an unknown place and has an unknown parent asteroid and history. However\, with Bennu\, ultimately\, returned samples from Bennu should clarify its history and evolution\, and in the meantime its geology can reveal much of its history and shed light on its history in the Main Asteroid Belt.\n\nShould you require any reasonable accommodations to ensure equal access and opportunity related to this event\, please contact Stacy Tiburzi at 734-764-3440 or stibu@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:\"A Computational Approach to Translational Neuroscience and Neuroengineering\"
DESCRIPTION:Traumatic injuries and diseases of the motor system affect millions of people worldwide. In Europe alone\, approximately 3 million people are affected by the consequences of spinal cord injury\, stroke and multiple sclerosis\, for a total estimated healthcare cost of 45 billion euros per year. Treatments for these conditions are needed to ease both their growing economic and societal impact. Recent advances in neurotechnologies and brain machine interfaces have prompted promising results in laboratory settings. However\, none of these approaches translated into actual clinical solutions to motor paralysis. Specifically\, the scarce knowledge on the mechanisms of neural control of movement hinder the design of effective neurotechnologies thus limiting their usability for people with severe disabilities. Here I show how I developed a computational and technological framework to understand how damaged neural circuits can adapt to use electrical stimulation inputs for correcting aberrant motor behaviors  I then show how I used this knowledge to design and test novel neurotechnologies enhancing motor recovery after paralysis.\n\nMarco Capogrosso\, Ph.D.\, is from the Department of Neurosciences and Movement Sciences at the University of Fribourg in Switzerland.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CANCELLED - International Institute Round Table
DESCRIPTION:This event has been cancelled due to the emergency reduction in operations on January 30 & 31\, 2019. We are working on rescheduling this important event.\n\nThis panel will discuss the situation faced by the Uyghurs\, a Muslim minority group living in northwestern China. Since early 2018\, media reports\, NGOs\, and eyewitness accounts have documented that up to one million Uyghurs and members of other Muslim groups have been detained and interned in \"re-education camps\" by the Chinese government. This discussion will give an overview of the current situation\, how it developed\, and what may happen in the future. A Q&A will follow. \n-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\nModerator: Mary Gallagher\, Director of the Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies\n\nPanel:\nLouisa Greve\, Director of External Affairs\, Uyghur Human Rights Project\nNico Howson\, Professor of Law\, University of Michigan \nJames Millward\, Professor of History\, Georgetown

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CANCELLED: Reading the Americanized Joothan: The Translator’s Cringe
DESCRIPTION:My translation of Hindi Dalit writer\,  Omprakash Valmiki’s autobiography\,  Joothan\,  was published by Samya in 2003.   Columbia University Press bought the American rights for the book and appointed an editor to edit my translation.  My talk will look at some of the changes the American editor made to my translation.  As I discovered\, by comparing the Indian and American version\, the changes are multiple\, and\, from my perspective\, diminish the beauty and the power of this major Dalit text. Comparing the two versions also brings out the sad fact that certain cultural contexts require an open mind that does not rush to judgment when challenged to move out of its ‘comfort zone.’

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Chair's Distinguished Lecture Series - Programmable metamaterials for redirecting stress waves on the fly
DESCRIPTION:Osama R. Bilal\, ETH Postdoctoral Fellow\, California Institute of Technology (Caltech)\n\nMechanical metamaterials are material systems with tailored\, architected geometry\, designed to retain static and dynamic properties that do not exist or rare in nature. This class of materials usually features a structural pattern that repeats spatially (i.e.\, unit cell). Most of the metamaterials properties are inscribed in the unit cell’s frequency dispersion spectrum\, ranging form its stiffness at zero frequency to its wave attenuation capacity at finite frequencies. These metamaterials are well suited to provide new materials-based advances (through geometry rather than chemical composition) to both structural and acoustical engineering of aerospace vehicles and structures. These advances\, for example\, can range from sound and vibration insulation to flow control. A major challenge in metamaterials design is to engineer unit cells that have the ability to change their mechanical properties in a predetermined manner\, within practical time frames. As a demonstration of principle\, we harness geometric and magnetic nonlinearities to tune the metamaterials’ dispersion characteristics. We program our nonlinear metamaterial to redirect stress waves\, on the fly\, in a reversible and element-wise fashion. \n \nAbout the speaker...\nOsama R. Bilal received his Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Colorado Boulder. He is currently a postdoctoral scholar in the Department of Mechanical and Civil Engineering at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech). Before relocating to Caltech\, he was an ETH postdoctoral fellow in the department of mechanical engineering in ETH Zurich\, Switzerland. His research interest spans the realization of advanced material and structures by design\, autonomous deployment of material systems\, topology optimization\, flow control\, and multifunctional metamaterials. Osama is the recipient of several awards\, including the ARL postdoctoral fellowship (Army)\, ETH postdoctoral fellowship (ETH)\, the Graduate Student Service Award (CU-Boulder)\, the International Student Award (CU-Boulder)\, the Outstanding Academic Achievement Award (CU-Boulder) and the Phononics 2011 Fellowship (National Science Foundation)\, among others.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:POSTPONED: The University of Michigan's Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning presents Lecture: Amanda Williams and Andres L. Hernandez\, \"PRACTICE or Holding Space for ______.\"
DESCRIPTION:Due to severe winter weather\, the University of Michigan has declared an emergency reduction in operations beginning 12:00 am Wednesday\, January 30 and extending through 7:00 am Friday\, February 1. All classes and events are cancelled for this period. As such\, the Thursday\, January 31 Penny Stamps Speaker Series Talk with Amanda Williams and Andres L. Hernandez has been postponed. Additional details will be posted as they are available.\n\nAmanda Williams is a visual artist who trained as an architect. Her practice blurs the distinction between art and architecture through works that employ color as a way to draw attention to the political complexities of race\, place and value in cities. The landscapes in which she operates are the visual residue of the invisible policies and forces that have misshapen most inner cities. Williams’s installations\, paintings\, video\, and works on paper seek to inspire new ways of looking at the familiar\, and in the process\, raise questions about the state of urban space in America. Amanda has exhibited widely\, including the 2018 Venice Architecture Biennale\, a solo exhibition at the MCA Chicago\, The Art Institute of Chicago and the Pulitzer Arts Foundation in St. Louis. She is a a 2018 United States Artists Fellow\, a Joan Mitchell Foundation Painters &amp\; Sculptors grantee\, an Efroymson Family Arts Fellow\, a Leadership Greater Chicago Fellow and a member of the multidisciplinary Museum Design team for the Obama Presidential Center. She is this year’s Bill and Stephanie Sick Distinguished Visiting Professor at the School of the Art Institute Chicago and has previously served as a Visiting Assistant Professor of Architecture at Cornell University and Washington University in St. Louis. She lives and works on Chicago’s south side.\n\nAndres L. Hernandez is a Chicago-based artist\, designer and educator who re-imagines the environments we inhabit\, and explores the potential of spaces for public dialogue and social action.  Hernandez is a 2018 Efroymson Contemporary Arts Fellow\, and his recent projects include a 2018-2019 visiting artist residency with the University of Arizona School of Art\, and Thrival Geographies (In My Mind I See A Line)\, a commissioned installation in collaboration with artists Amanda Williams and Shani Crowe for the U.S. Pavilion at the 2018 Venice Architecture Biennale. Hernandez is co-founder of the Revival Arts Collective\, founder and director of the Urban Vacancy Research Initiative\, and exhibition design team member for the Museum of the Obama Presidential Center in Chicago\, IL.  He received a Bachelor of Architecture degree from Cornell University and a Master of Arts from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago\, where he is an Associate Professor.
