SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of presents Art\, Music & Autism: Jazz Musicians in Mixed Media by Juliette Hemingway
DESCRIPTION:In Juliette Hemingway’s work\, viewers can imagine the grumbling tones of a saxophone or the sharp lines of a trombone. The sound is inside the musicians. You may not know the details of their experience or understand it\, but it's visceral. That is what jazz is in Hemingway's work. It is the instinctual part of her life that she gives to viewers as a visual excerpt: a life that revolves around healing\, autism\, creativity and awareness. Jazz and the blue-hued musicians give you a sense of the deep-rooted experiences of her son and what it is to live with autism\, and for her\, straining to look into his secret world. Hemingway is based in Aurora\, Colorado.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Michigan China Forum -- Environment Panel
DESCRIPTION:China has experienced significant economic growth in the past few decades but with that has come a reputation for dangerous levels of pollution. Transition from fossil fuels to renewable sources of energy has been the key to economic growth and energy security in China. \n\nDespite nearly mature solar\, wind and hydropower technologies\, how to better put such technologies into the wider market is becoming a problem we need to solve in the future. Improving battery efficiency of electric vehicles\, expanding charging infrastructure\, and introducing supportive benefits and policies for electric vehicles will be the key to reducing air pollution and making transportation and cities cleaner. The cap-and-trade regime is featured with its market-based regulation and economic incentives\, giving each regulated company a limited permission of GHG emission and allowing trade of permission between companies. However\, a deeper and more comprehensive look into cap-and-trade system is needed to help mitigate climate change.\n\nSeveral panelists from various backgrounds are invited to talk about renewable energy\, electric vehicles and carbon trade system\, both in China and across the world. Anyone is welcome to environment panel\, Michigan China Forum 2019! Please RSVP for free at:\nhttps://www.michiganchinaforum.org/\nGo to the same site to register for any other events in Michigan China Forum 2019!

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:Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:EXPANDING OUR UNDERSTANDING OF A MUSEUM AS A CULTURAL REPOSITORY\n \nIn celebration of the University of Michigan’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and distinguished U­–M art professor Jim Cogswell was invited to create a series of public window installations in response to the holdings of the University of Michigan Museum of Art and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology. For this visionary project\, the artist adhered a procession of vivid images to the glass walls of the museums in a rhythmically evocative narrative\, based on reassembled fragments from a diverse range of artworks in both museums' permanent collections.  The juxtaposed images address our shared histories and experiences while connecting the viewer to the origins and meaning of objects and their power to shape knowledge\, memory\, and identity. By leveraging the buildings’ unique architecture\, the artist expands our understanding of a museum as a cultural repository and highlights the significant role of these institutions in the life of the campus community.  Cosmogonic Tattoos is on view at the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology through May 2\, 2018 and UMMA through June 2\, 2019.\n \n#CosmogonicTattoos\n\nLead support for Cosmogonic Tattoos is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost. Additional support for the artist's project is provided by the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Ancient Color
DESCRIPTION:The Roman world was a colorful place. Although we often associate the Romans with white marble statues\, these statues — as well as Roman homes\, clothing\, and art — were vibrant with color. This exhibition examines colors in the ancient Roman world\, how these colors were produced\, where they were found\, what the Romans thought about them\, and how we study them today. We hope that visitors will think about what different colors mean to them\, and how these meanings compare to the roles of colors in the ancient Roman world.\n\nCurators: Catherine Person and Caroline Roberts\n\nView the online exhibition: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/ancient-color/

SUMMARY:Performance:Alcina
DESCRIPTION:an opera by George Frideric Handel\n\nUniversity Opera Theatre and University Philharmonia Orchestra\n\nThe third of Handel’s operas to be based on the epic poem Orlando furioso (with Orlando and Ariodante)\, Alcina is the story about a beautiful sorceress named Alcina\, who lures men to her enchanted island for love only to turn them into objects or animals when she tires of them. Alcina debuted at the Covent Garden Theatre in London in 1735 to great acclaim. Just a few of the exquisite arias are the famous “Tornami a vagheggiar\,” “Verdi prati\,” and “Ah\, mio cor.” Today\,  the opera is considered to be one of the composer’s greatest. A moving story of love’s fickleness and faithfulness\, Alcina features some of Handel’s most alluring music.

SUMMARY:Presentation:The Six Senses of Buddhism
DESCRIPTION:Art museums generally give primacy to the sense of sight. Religious and ritual objects\, on the other hand\, stimulate an array of multisensory experiences. Focusing on works from UMMA’s collection associated with different types of Japanese Buddhism\, we engage all of the six senses in this exhibition. These six are integral to Buddhist devotion: sight\, hearing\, smell\, touch\, taste\, and mind (or the activity of thinking\, including what is perceived via the other senses). The “Six Senses” gallery experience extends beyond vision to include: the sound of chanting and ritual implements\; the fragrance of incense\; the feel of bronze\, ceramic\, and silk\; and the creation of mental images. Gain a deeper understanding of the nature and histories of objects used in Buddhist practice with a docent tour of this fascinating exhibition.\n\nLead support for The Six Senses of Buddhism is provided by the Japan Business Society of Detroit Foundation and the University of Michigan Center for Japanese Studies.

SUMMARY:Performance:The Subdudes
DESCRIPTION:Before there were terms like \"roots rock\,\" there were the Subdudes and their acoustic accordion-flavored (and tambourine-spiked) musical brew that came straight out of the warmth and soul of their native New Orleans. The band came together at the famed Tipitina's club in 1987 and took their awesomely funky blues-rock on the road for ten years\, winning fans everywhere. The Subdudes\, noted the All Music Guide's Tammy La Gorce\, \"aren't just stellar musicians of the swampy jazz-rock-blues New Orleans persuasion\, as they've come to be known. They're also a group of guys whose working-class roots run as definitively\, and maybe as deeply\, as Bruce Springsteen's.\" The Subdudes sound has persisted through several changes of personnel\, and now they're back\, with Steve Amedée on tambourine\, making a joyful noise in the world's funkiest city and beyond

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Bookmarks: Speculating the Futures of the Book and Library
DESCRIPTION:A multi-venue exhibition of site-specific installations\, performances\, interventions\, and events by University of Michigan faculty\, staff\, and students\, Bookmarks: Speculating the Futures of the Book and Library is curated by Guna Nadarajan\, dean of the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan\, in partnership with the University of Michigan Library. The exhibition will be located in several locations within Shapiro Undergraduate Library\, Hatcher Graduate Library\, and the Art\, Architecture & Engineering Library. \n\nThe continued proliferation of digital formats and systems for the embodiment\, distribution\, and delivery of knowledge increasingly displace the book as form. As a result\, the spacial limitations of libraries are challenged. The value of the book and the function of the library demand cultural attention. In this moment\, we ask ourselves: what is the future of the library? What is the future of the book? This exhibition seeks to instigate and showcase creative responses to the challenges to the book and the library in the forms we have inherited as well as to project ways of reimagining futures for/of books and libraries.\n\nBookmarks: Speculating the Futures of the Book and Library is supported by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, the University of Michigan Library\, the University of Michigan Office for Research (UMOR)\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of presents Art\, Music & Autism: Jazz Musicians in Mixed Media by Juliette Hemingway
DESCRIPTION:In Juliette Hemingway’s work\, viewers can imagine the grumbling tones of a saxophone or the sharp lines of a trombone. The sound is inside the musicians. You may not know the details of their experience or understand it\, but it's visceral. That is what jazz is in Hemingway's work. It is the instinctual part of her life that she gives to viewers as a visual excerpt: a life that revolves around healing\, autism\, creativity and awareness. Jazz and the blue-hued musicians give you a sense of the deep-rooted experiences of her son and what it is to live with autism\, and for her\, straining to look into his secret world. Hemingway is based in Aurora\, Colorado.

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:Presentation:Clinical Science Brown Bag:  Stress\, Depressive Symptoms\, and Cognition in Older Adults
DESCRIPTION:Chronic stress is a risk factor for negative health outcomes in late life\, including cognitive impairment. The negative association between stress and cognition may be mediated by depressive symptoms\, which separate studies have identified as both a consequence of chronic stress and a risk factor for cognitive decline. Pathways linking stress\, depressive symptoms\, and cognition may also be influenced by sociodemographic characteristics (i.e.\, gender\, race & ethnicity) or modifiable psychosocial resources (i.e.\, social support\, perceived control). Using data from the Washington Heights-Inwood Columbia Aging Project\, the goal of this cross-sectional study was to enhance understanding of the mechanisms and modifiability of the stress-cognition link in a racially and ethnically diverse sample of older adults.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Art Exhibit: Householdments
DESCRIPTION:John was born in Tokyo\, Japan in 1971. His family settled in Grand Rapids\, Michigan after stays in both Japan and Iowa. After attending various universities around Michigan\, John took an education hiatus to work in a cannery in Alaska. It was there that he found his calling in the pages of American Craft while scouring the tables of free magazines at the Anchorage Public Library. He received his BFA (Furniture Design) from Northern Michigan University in 1996 and his MFA (Furniture Design) from Rhode Island School of Design in 2000. John teaches in the School of Art and Design at Eastern Michigan University. John has recently exhibited work at the Muskegon Museum of Art\, the Midland Center for the Arts\, the Grand Rapids Art Museum\, and the Marshall Fredericks Sculpture Museum. He lives in Ann Arbor and maintains a studio in his home.\n\n<<>><<>><<>> Householdments <<>><<>><<>><<>><<>>\nWhile I don’t literally remember my earliest childhood years in Japan where I was born\, I have over my lifetime\, stitched together memories based on home movies\, family photos\, and images from my imagination. I “remember” the aesthetics of the place - objects and environments carefully made in wood\, stone\, and steel. Without necessarily conscious of it at the time\, I was dimly aware of Japanese visual composition. Things around me held an inherent logic and beauty\, a perfection made possible by keen tools\, quality materials\, and proficient makers. This three-part integration was embedded early on and continues to affect my own ongoing pursuit in object making.\n\nWhile finding my way as a young maker\, I realized where I belonged mostly because of how various studios smelled. The ceramics studio was musty and dirty\, the metals studio was acrid and smoky\, but the wood studio had an earthy aroma. My kind of place. The tools immediately felt right as well. Chisels\, planes\, and knives when sharpened properly could manipulate the material in ways I never expected. While I was clearly not a natural talent\, I quickly realized that a little bit of tenacity goes a long way. I also realized that I loved the logic for how wood parts can fit together. To build a wooden object or a piece of furniture each part depends on the fit of others. I deeply appreciate this fitting togetherness – how doors fit\, how drawers fit\, how joints fit\, how hinges fit. It all makes sense\, and this sensibility carries through to what I’m doing today.\n\nWorking in wood typically requires a high degree of planning before actual construction\, and over time I realized I craved the ability to work with more spontaneity. The work in this show reflects my wish to keep the working process a bit more flexible and intuitive.\n\nWhen starting with a sketch that I believe has potential\, I now begin to build directly\, without drawings or maquettes. I’ll constantly assess what has been built and allow myself to alter it\, continue with it\, or get rid of it and start over. I’m more interested in seeing where this process takes me than I am in finishing something precisely as planned. This results in some playfulness and whimsy that I hope is reflected in this work.\n\nThe word Householdments is an old and obscure term without modern usage that refers to furniture or things we keep in our houses. It strikes me as an odd word but well fitted to describe the objects in this exhibit. The pieces in this show are a collection of my personal householdments.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral & Experimental Economics (SBEE): Interpreting Signals: Evidence from Medical Referrals
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nThis paper provides evidence that a person's gender influences the way others interpret information about his or her ability and documents the implications for gender inequality in labor markets. Using data on physicians' referrals to surgical specialists\, I find that the referring physician views patient outcomes differently depending on the performing surgeon's gender. Physicians become more pessimistic about a female surgeon's ability than a male's after a patient death\, indicated by a sharper drop in referrals to the female surgeon. However\, physicians become more optimistic about a male surgeon's ability after a good patient outcome\, indicated by a larger increase in the number of referrals the male surgeon receives. After a bad experience with one female surgeon\, physicians also become less likely to refer to new female surgeons in the same specialty. There are no such spillovers to other men after a bad experience with one male surgeon. Consistent with learning models\, physicians' reactions to events are strongest when they are beginning to refer to a surgeon. However\, the empirical patterns are only consistent with Bayesian learning if physicians do not have rational expectations about the true distribution of surgeon ability.

SUMMARY:Other:Dissertation Defense: Approaches for identifying biases in single-cell RNA-sequencing data
DESCRIPTION:Single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) involves the measurement of gene expression from isolated single cells\, with the potential to illuminate cellular heterogeneity within complex tissue samples.  However\, scRNA-seq data are subject to a large number of technical effects.  In this work\, we present two approaches that can be applied for removing technical effects from scRNA-seq data in downstream analyses.  The first part introduces different concepts of stably expressed genes with respect to true biological expression.  Different classes of stably expressed genes may capture different technical effects\, assisting in the removal of these technical effects and increasing the biological interpretability of later results.  We find that genes associated with the cytosolic ribosomal structure of cells are enriched with genes that are stably expressed in proportion to the total RNA content of a cell.  The cytosolic ribosomal genes can serve as a foundation for a gene set incorporated into normalization procedures to remove some technical effects associated with cell size.  The second part describes a procedure to analyze which genes are captured with more accuracy from scRNA-seq experiments.  The number of reads captured for each unique molecular identifier (UMI) informs how well a specific gene is captured within a dataset.  Reliably detectable genes can then be applied to downstream analyses\, correcting for additional technical effects.  Together\, these two projects provide two approaches to identifying genes that capture technical effects in scRNA-seq data and can be applied to later normalization procedures.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Using an Online Sample to Learn about an Offline Population
DESCRIPTION:A PSC Brown Bag Seminar: Big Data in Population Science - Mini-Series.\n\nOnline data sources offer tremendous promise to demography and other social sciences\, but researchers worry that the group of people who are represented in online datasets can be different from the general population. We show that by sampling and anonymously interviewing people who are online\, researchers can learn about both people who are online and people who are offline. Our approach is based on the insight that people everywhere are connected through in-person social networks\, such as kin\, friendship\, and contact networks. We illustrate how this insight can be used to derive an estimator for tracking the *digital divide* in access to the internet\, an increasingly important dimension of population inequality in the modern world. We conducted a large-scale empirical test of our approach\, using an online sample to estimate internet adoption in five countries (n≈15\,000). Our test embedded a randomized experiment whose results can help design future studies. Our approach could be adapted to many other settings\, offering one way to overcome some of the major challenges facing demographers in the information age.\nRelated Material:\nPersonal website\nBIO:\n\nProfessor Feehan's research interests lie at the intersection of networks\, demography\, and quantitative methodology. He is an Assistant Professor of Demography at the University of California\, Berkeley. In the summer of 2015\, he finished his Ph.D. at Princeton’s Office of Population Research\, and spent the fall of 2015 as a Research Scientist at Facebook.\n\nPSC Brown Bag seminars highlight recent research in population studies and serve as a focal point for building our research community.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Betty Ch'maj Distinguished American Studies Lecture: \"Soul Survivals: Black Music and the Language of Resilience\"
DESCRIPTION:In addition to the lecture\, we've arranged an informal lunch and conversation for graduate students with Professor Lordi earlier at noon.  Having written for The New Yorker\, Pitchfork\, The Root\, and the famed 33 1/3 music series\, Lordi will be discussing and answering questions about writing for a broader public.  Please RSVP here by Thurs\, Mar 28: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScJMQWSf2Z_NlcDgAeLkPRCJ_bCydAl9t2zSGnFs_2kpKlSqA/viewform\n\nSoul is in the air again. Each day seems to bring a new documentary\, biography\, posthumous record release\, or Lifetime Achievement Award for such artists as Aretha Franklin\, Donny Hathaway\, Nina Simone\, and Marvin Gaye. This talk asks what is at stake in the national soul revival\, and offers new ways to conceive of the music called soul\, both in the Black Power era and in the 21st century. Reading recent representations of the music alongside earlier recordings and performances\, I posit soul as a mutable legacy of collective black resilience—one that at times reproduces and at other times resists the individualizing thrust of neoliberal ideology.\n\nThe Department of American Culture has invited Emily Lordi\, an Associate Professor of English at the University of Massachusetts-Amherst\, to give the inaugural Betty Ch’maj Distinguished American Studies Lecture\, an annual event established to honor the legacy of Ch’maj\, the first Ph.D. of the American Culture program at the University of Michigan.  Professor Lordi’s public talk will take place on Monday\, April 1\, 4-5:30 at Room 100 at the Hatcher Library Gallery.  Her talk will draw from her forthcoming monograph Keeping On: Soul\, Black Music\, Resilience.\n\nProfessor Lordi is the author of Black Resonance: Iconic Women Singers and African American Literature (2013)\, and Donny Hathaway Live (2016)\, part of the famed 33 1/3 popular music book series published by Bloomsbury.  Professor Lordi has published in prominent journals such as the Journal of Popular Music Studies\, New Centennial Review\, and Palimpsest\, as well as edited volumes like The Cambridge Companion to the American Modernist Novel\, and the forthcoming  Keywords in African American Studies.  In addition to scholarly publication\, Professor Lordi has been a regular contributor to prestigious venues like The New Yorker\, The Atlantic\, NPR\, The Root\, The Fader\, and the Los Angeles Review of Books as a cultural critic.  She received a B.A. at Vassar College in 2001\, and her Ph.D. at Columbia University in 2009.\n\nAbout the Betty Ch’maj Lecture: With generous support from the Ch’maj family\, the Annual Betty Ch’maj Distinguished American Studies Lecture Series was established to honor the legacy of Betty Ch’maj.  Ch'maj\, who was awarded the very first Ph.D. in American Culture in 1961 at Michigan\, continued her career researching American literature and music\, founding the Radical Caucus of ASA\, and working to challenge systematic gender discrimination in American Studies programs.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Physics and astrophysics at DUNE: a theorist's perspective
DESCRIPTION:Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment\, which is being actively developed by an international collaboration of 1\,000+ researchers from 30+ countries\, will be a multi-decade physics program. The experiment will carry out precision oscillation measurements in the neutrino beam created at Fermilab\, look for nucleon decay\, and be ready to capture a burst of neutrinos from a galactic core-collapse supernova. Theoretical input is essential for many aspects of this program. In the first part of the talk\, I will discuss some relevant aspects of the neutrino-nucleus cross section physics and related questions about measuring neutrino energy at DUNE. In the second part\, I will focus on the astrophysical capabilities of the far detector. I will show that the supernova burst signal carries in it the signatures of physical processes taking place close to the collapsed core. If we know what to look for\, we can learn about the conditions in the neutrino-driven wind and the impact of collective flavor oscillations.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Inaugural Lecture: Honoring Professor Robert M. Sellers on his Appointment to the Charles D. Moody Professorship in Psychology
DESCRIPTION:In his seminal work\, \"Souls of Black Folk\"\, W. E. B. DuBois (1903) suggested the only way that African Americans can develop healthy self-concepts within American society is to come to \"an understanding\" within themselves regarding the duality of their status as African and American. We argue that the nature of \"this understanding\" varies across African Americans. Our research has attempted to explicate and describe the role that race plays in the psychological lives of African Americans. This research has focused on the racial identities that African Americans hold\, the processes by which African Americans transmit attitudes and beliefs about the meaning of race across generations to their children\, as well as documenting their experiences with racial discrimination and the consequences of such experiences. Our research program has attempted to place African American's experiences at the center and explicitly recognize their humanity as core assumptions of our analyses. The current presentation provides a brief overview of our work. In doing so\, we also honor the legacy of Prof. Charles D. Moody.

DESCRIPTION:A multi-venue exhibition of site-specific installations\, performances\, interventions\, and events by University of Michigan faculty\, staff\, and students\, Bookmarks: Speculating the Futures of the Book and Library is curated by Guna Nadarajan\, dean of the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan\, in partnership with the University of Michigan Library. The exhibition will be located in several locations within Shapiro Undergraduate Library\, Hatcher Graduate Library\, and the Art\, Architecture & Engineering Library. \n\nThe continued proliferation of digital formats and systems for the embodiment\, distribution\, and delivery of knowledge increasingly displace the book as form. As a result\, the spacial limitations of libraries are challenged. The value of the book and the function of the library demand cultural attention. In this moment\, we ask ourselves: what is the future of the library? What is the future of the book? This exhibition seeks to instigate and showcase creative responses to the challenges to the book and the library in the forms we have inherited as well as to project ways of reimagining futures for/of books and libraries.\n\nBookmarks: Speculating the Futures of the Book and Library is supported by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, the University of Michigan Library\, the University of Michigan Office for Research (UMOR)\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of presents Art\, Music & Autism: Jazz Musicians in Mixed Media by Juliette Hemingway
DESCRIPTION:In Juliette Hemingway’s work\, viewers can imagine the grumbling tones of a saxophone or the sharp lines of a trombone. The sound is inside the musicians. You may not know the details of their experience or understand it\, but it's visceral. That is what jazz is in Hemingway's work. It is the instinctual part of her life that she gives to viewers as a visual excerpt: a life that revolves around healing\, autism\, creativity and awareness. Jazz and the blue-hued musicians give you a sense of the deep-rooted experiences of her son and what it is to live with autism\, and for her\, straining to look into his secret world. Hemingway is based in Aurora\, Colorado.

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:Blind House: Utopia and Dystopia in the Age of Radical Transparency
DESCRIPTION:\"Blind House: Utopia and Dystopia in the Age of Radical Transparency\,\" by collaborative artists Paloma Muñoz and Walter Martin\, is a razor-sharp work that brings into question our ideals of house and home\, privacy\, and safety.\n\nThe exhibition combines photographs the artists have envisioned of houses without windows as well an actual glass house planned for the center of the gallery\, revisiting the whole notion of a glass house as an example of sophistication\, luxury\, and modernism.\n\nIn a darkening an era of surveillance and the internet\, for Martin and Muñoz\,  \"Blind House\" serves as \"a metaphorical solution to the full on campaign against personal privacy.\" Read the artists' statement at http://myumi.ch/6wxbk

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Ancient Color
DESCRIPTION:The Roman world was a colorful place. Although we often associate the Romans with white marble statues\, these statues — as well as Roman homes\, clothing\, and art — were vibrant with color. This exhibition examines colors in the ancient Roman world\, how these colors were produced\, where they were found\, what the Romans thought about them\, and how we study them today. We hope that visitors will think about what different colors mean to them\, and how these meanings compare to the roles of colors in the ancient Roman world.\n\nCurators: Catherine Person and Caroline Roberts\n\nView the online exhibition: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/ancient-color/

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Art Exhibit: Householdments
DESCRIPTION:John was born in Tokyo\, Japan in 1971. His family settled in Grand Rapids\, Michigan after stays in both Japan and Iowa. After attending various universities around Michigan\, John took an education hiatus to work in a cannery in Alaska. It was there that he found his calling in the pages of American Craft while scouring the tables of free magazines at the Anchorage Public Library. He received his BFA (Furniture Design) from Northern Michigan University in 1996 and his MFA (Furniture Design) from Rhode Island School of Design in 2000. John teaches in the School of Art and Design at Eastern Michigan University. John has recently exhibited work at the Muskegon Museum of Art\, the Midland Center for the Arts\, the Grand Rapids Art Museum\, and the Marshall Fredericks Sculpture Museum. He lives in Ann Arbor and maintains a studio in his home.\n\n<<>><<>><<>> Householdments <<>><<>><<>><<>><<>>\nWhile I don’t literally remember my earliest childhood years in Japan where I was born\, I have over my lifetime\, stitched together memories based on home movies\, family photos\, and images from my imagination. I “remember” the aesthetics of the place - objects and environments carefully made in wood\, stone\, and steel. Without necessarily conscious of it at the time\, I was dimly aware of Japanese visual composition. Things around me held an inherent logic and beauty\, a perfection made possible by keen tools\, quality materials\, and proficient makers. This three-part integration was embedded early on and continues to affect my own ongoing pursuit in object making.\n\nWhile finding my way as a young maker\, I realized where I belonged mostly because of how various studios smelled. The ceramics studio was musty and dirty\, the metals studio was acrid and smoky\, but the wood studio had an earthy aroma. My kind of place. The tools immediately felt right as well. Chisels\, planes\, and knives when sharpened properly could manipulate the material in ways I never expected. While I was clearly not a natural talent\, I quickly realized that a little bit of tenacity goes a long way. I also realized that I loved the logic for how wood parts can fit together. To build a wooden object or a piece of furniture each part depends on the fit of others. I deeply appreciate this fitting togetherness – how doors fit\, how drawers fit\, how joints fit\, how hinges fit. It all makes sense\, and this sensibility carries through to what I’m doing today.\n\nWorking in wood typically requires a high degree of planning before actual construction\, and over time I realized I craved the ability to work with more spontaneity. The work in this show reflects my wish to keep the working process a bit more flexible and intuitive.\n\nWhen starting with a sketch that I believe has potential\, I now begin to build directly\, without drawings or maquettes. I’ll constantly assess what has been built and allow myself to alter it\, continue with it\, or get rid of it and start over. I’m more interested in seeing where this process takes me than I am in finishing something precisely as planned. This results in some playfulness and whimsy that I hope is reflected in this work.\n\nThe word Householdments is an old and obscure term without modern usage that refers to furniture or things we keep in our houses. It strikes me as an odd word but well fitted to describe the objects in this exhibit. The pieces in this show are a collection of my personal householdments.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:ISR Hackerspace with CPS faculty Christopher Fariss
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Fariss is excited to host a weekly Tuesday morning hackerspace from February 12 until April 23. Dr. Fariss uses computational methods and the statistical program R to study why governments around the world torture\, maim\, and kill individuals within their jurisdiction\, and the processes monitors use to observe and document these abuses. Other research projects cover a broad array of themes but share a focus on computationally intensive methods\, research design\, and the analysis of data at a massive scale. \n\nThis weekly meeting with Dr. Fariss is for those with an interest in the R statistical programming language. Both beginners and experienced users are invited to attend. Dr. Fariss plans to introduce mostly introductory material during these sessions but will also cover Bayesian modeling in R and STAN.\n\nThe goal is to foster a diverse and inclusive hacking environment in which attendees can benefit from each other’s expertise. To participate\, hackers need to bring their own laptops and\, ideally\, have a chunk of code they are planning to work on unless they plan to assist and join others in their coding endeavors.

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:Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:EXPANDING OUR UNDERSTANDING OF A MUSEUM AS A CULTURAL REPOSITORY\n \nIn celebration of the University of Michigan’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and distinguished U­–M art professor Jim Cogswell was invited to create a series of public window installations in response to the holdings of the University of Michigan Museum of Art and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology. For this visionary project\, the artist adhered a procession of vivid images to the glass walls of the museums in a rhythmically evocative narrative\, based on reassembled fragments from a diverse range of artworks in both museums' permanent collections.  The juxtaposed images address our shared histories and experiences while connecting the viewer to the origins and meaning of objects and their power to shape knowledge\, memory\, and identity. By leveraging the buildings’ unique architecture\, the artist expands our understanding of a museum as a cultural repository and highlights the significant role of these institutions in the life of the campus community.  Cosmogonic Tattoos is on view at the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology through May 2\, 2018 and UMMA through June 2\, 2019.\n \n#CosmogonicTattoos\n\nLead support for Cosmogonic Tattoos is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost. Additional support for the artist's project is provided by the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Directional Entropic Forces from Lattice Dimers
DESCRIPTION:Recent investigations show that minimal interactions of particles can give rise to complex emergent structures. In particular\, complex crystalline structures can be assembled from anisotropic colloids exclusively via entropic excluded-volume interaction. These emergent interactions can be quantified and explained via directional entropic forces (DEFs). Here we study the emergent arrangement in a much simpler system of finite density lattice dimers. We propose a new computational paradigm based on tensor network contraction that does not rely on Monte Carlo sampling. Computing DEFs for the dimers with this method poses new types of questions in study of lattice models in statistical physics. We indicate the ways in which tensor networks can serve as a new graphic language to discuss rigorous computations in statistical physics.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | Constructing Nature and Culture In and Out of the Studio
DESCRIPTION:The studio is an enclosed site specifically used for reading\, writing and art creation. During the Song dynasty (960–1279)\, the studio became a significant cultural space for literati. This talk will analyze the attributes of this cultural space by going beyond the studio\, in terms of its relationship with its natural surroundings. In Song literary and pictorial representations\, this interplay between the studio and its surrounding scenery is represented as the \"mise-en-abyme\,\" through which nature and culture are continuously framed\, transformed\, and intertwined. \n    \nYunshuang Zhang is currently a visiting assistant professor in the Department of Classical and Modern Languages\, Literatures\, and Cultures at Wayne State University. She received her Ph.D. in classical Chinese literature and culture from the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures at UCLA in 2017. She obtained her M.A. and B.A. in Chinese Literature from Peking University\, China. Her research interests center on the literature and literati culture during Middle Period China (800–1400). She is now working on her book project\, entitled “Porous Privacy: The Literati Studio and Spatiality in Song China.” This project examines the privacy of the studio space and the way by which it works as a medium for the reproduction of literati culture. \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.\n\nImage Caption: Liu Songnian\, Reading Changes by the Autumn Window\, album leaf\, ink and color on silk\, 25.7 × 26 cm.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Robotics Seminar - Tools for Orbital Stabilization of Underactuated Mechanical Systems
DESCRIPTION:Anton Shiriaev\, Professor\, Engineering Cybernetics\, Norwegian University of Science and Technology  will give a seminar titled\, \"Analytic and Computational Tools for Orbital Stabilization of Behaviors of Underactuated Mechanical Systems.\"\n\nOne of great advantages of model-based approaches in robotics is a possibility to separate the task of motion and trajectory planning from the task of a synthesis of feedback controller for stabilizing the preplanned behavior. This is quite different from the way humans learn motions where searches (trials) for new behaviors are embodied and accompanied by feedback actions. The talk will provide a discussion of the second assignment (feedback controller design) for the case when a feedback controller is requested to ensure a Poincare (or the same orbital) stability of a forced periodic solution of a nonlinear dynamical system.  Geometric interpretations of the problem settings motivate introducing specific coordinates (transverse to the motion and along the motion) that help in defining math concepts and computational tools necessary for solving the stabilization task for smooth or hybrid nonlinear systems.  The development is illustrated by examples of controlling gaits of walking robots and hand manipulations of passive objects with one or several passive degrees of freedom. \n\nRefreshments will be served.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Cities of Air: Data Visualization and Architectural Memory in the Art and Literature of Forced Disappearance
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, Jesús Costantino examines recent works by Mexican writers and artists who reconsider the project of visualizing mass disappearance and who pointedly turn away from data—particularly the ways in which data is assembled and visualized by international human rights groups—and toward tangible artifacts and architectures. By way of the rooms\, houses\, buildings\, debris\, and other architectural sites left behind by the disappeared\, these writers and artists imagine another relationship to absence that resists what they see as the false coherence and closure of visual data.\n\n\nJesús Costantino is an Assistant Professor of English at the University of New Mexico where he teaches and conducts research in American literature\, film\, and media. He has recently completed his first book manuscript\, Boxing and the Racial Origins of Early-Twentieth-Century Media Technologies\, in which he traces the racial genealogies of “presence” and “live experience” through the mutually constitutive forms of modern boxing and new visual media. He is now beginning work on a second book-length project\, Under the Sign of Disaster Triumphant: The Colonial Legacies of Late-Capitalist Ruins in the Americas\, in which he interrogates the ways in which depictions of contemporary urban ruin and natural disaster in the US and Latin America remediate the colonial past.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Probing Quantum Statistics and Spatial Correlations in Ultracold Gases with Rydberg Molecules
DESCRIPTION:Ultralong-range Rydberg molecules (ULRRMs) provide a sensitive and versatile\, in situ probe of quantum statistics and spatial correlations in quantum gases. In ULRRMs\, one or more ground-state atoms are bound to an atom in a highly excited Rydberg state through atom-electron scattering. Background atoms experience a potential that is given by the shape of the Rydberg-electron probability distribution\, and the photo-excitation rate is proportional to the probability of finding atoms in the original ultracold gas with appropriate atomic configurations. In the low-density\, few-body regime\, ULRRMs can be created with well-defined internuclear spacing\, set by the radius of the outer lobe of the Rydberg electron wavefunction. For the most-deeply bound dimer molecular state in particular\, the excitation rate is proportional to the pair-correlation function\, g^2(R)\, of the initial sample\, and R can be scanned by varying the principal quantum number of the target Rydberg state. We demonstrate this with ultracold\, non-degenerate strontium gases and pair-separation length scales from R=1000-3000$ a_0\, which is on the order of the thermal de Broglie wavelength for temperatures around 1 mu_K. Quantum statistics results in bunching for a single-component Bose gas of ^{84}Sr and Pauli exclusion for a polarized Fermi gas of ^{87}Sr. In the many-body regime the Rydberg atom is dressed by many background atoms\, and for fermions the shape of the excitation spectrum can be explained in terms of Pauli blocking in the filled molecular orbitals of the final state. ULRRM excitation can be nearly non-destructive\, and the time scale for molecule formation (~1 mu s) is also much faster than the inverse chemical potential or Fermi energy in quantum gases\, potentially making this a valuable new probe of spatial correlations in many-body systems.\n\nResearch supported by the AFOSR (FA9550-14-1-0007)\, and the Robert A\, Welch Foundation (C-1844)\n\nCollaborators\n\nF.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CPPS/Frankel Lecture. Space and Spirit\, or How to make a Historical Atlas of Hasidism
DESCRIPTION:Marcin Wodzinski has produced the first cartographic reference book on Hasidism\, one of the modern era's most vibrant and important mystical movements. In this lecture\, he will discuss Hasidism's emergence and expansion in Eastern Europe\; its spread to the New World\; and its remarkable postwar rebirth. Wodzinski’s innovative mapping allows him to show to what extent Hasidism dominated the Eastern European Jewry\, which Hasidic dynasties were strongest and why\, and how the Hasidim resurrected in the Post-Holocaust era. \n    \nMarcin Wodziński (b. 1966) was born and raised in Silesia\, Poland. He currently works at the Department of Jewish Studies\, University of Wrocław\, Poland\, where he is professor of Jewish history and literature. His research focuses on the history and culture of East European Jews in modern times\, especially the Haskalah and Hasidism. Of his recent publications\, he is most proud of \"Historical Atlas of Hasidism\" (2018) and \"Hasidism: Key Questions\" (2018). \n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to copernicus@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:FUNCTIONAL MRI LAB SPEAKER SERIES - EAST HALL\, CENTRAL CAMPUS
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Liu is the Director of the UCSD Center for Functional MRI and a Professor of Radiology\, Psychiatry\, and Bioengineering.  Areas of research include: (1) Investigation of resting-state brain connectivity with multi-modal imaging approaches (fMRI\, MEG\, and EEG)\; (2) Characterization and modeling of the hemodynamic response to neural activity\, including the effects of drugs such as caffeine\; (3) Development and optimization of arterial spin labeling MRI methods for the non-invasive measurement of cerebral blood flow\; (4) Design and analysis of experiments for functional MRI (fMRI)\, with an emphasis on statistical optimization\, nonlinear signal processing\, and physiological noise reduction\; and (5) Development of quantitative fMRI methods for the study of Alzheimer's disease and associated disorders\n\nPresentation Title:  The Global Signal\, Vigilance Fluctuations\, and Nuisance Regression in Resting State fMRI\n\nAbstract: \n\nResting-state fMRI (rsfMRI) is now a widely used method to assess the functional connectivity (FC) of the brain. However\, the mechanisms underlying rsfMRI are still poorly understood. In this talk I will address several related aspects of the rsfMRI signal. The first is the global signal\, which represents the whole brain average signal and has been widely used as a regressor for removing the effects of global variations in resting-state activity. I will discuss the controversy surrounding global signal regression and describe new approaches for minimizing global signal effects. A related topic concerns the origins of global activity in the brain. There is growing evidence that a considerable portion of this global activity arises from fluctuations in vigilance and arousal. I will discuss the recent findings in this area and discuss the implications for the analysis and interpretation of rsfMRI studies. Finally\, I will describe recent empirical and theoretical work demonstrating the limitations of regression based methods that are widely used to minimize the effects of nuisance components in rsfMRI studies.

DESCRIPTION:Please join the Nineteenth Century Forum for a public lecture given by Alicia Christoff\, Assistant Professor of English at Amherst College. \n\nIt may seem strange to pair Jonathan Glazer’s unsettling science fiction film Under the Skin (2013)\, about an alien inhabiting the body of a woman (played by Scarlett Johannson)\, with Thomas Hardy’s much more terrestrial Tess of the D’Urbervilles (1891). This talk\, however\, brings the film and novel together to show that Tess too is a skin story: a story of “beautiful feminine tissue\,” bodily surfaces\, phenomenological sensation\, the male gaze\, female agency\, embodiment\, and their violation – and an implicit story of racialization as well. The talk builds on Kaja Silverman’s foundational essay on female subjectivity and specularity in Tess by testing it against Under the Skin\, which I argue eerily re-echoes many of the Victorian novel’s central images and tropes. More largely\, I am interested in how the act of pairing Victorian and modern texts can provide Victorian studies scholars ways of engaging new work in critical theory – here\, recent theorizations of race\, blackness\, and visuality – that is sometimes felt to be debarred by our objects of study.

DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan is huge. While there are many resources and opportunities for student orgs\, it is hard to stay on top of all of them.\n\nHeForShe\, a gender equality student org\, saw this issue as one that especially impacted social justice-oriented student organizations\, as the nature of social justice work requires community and a united effort.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Bookmarks: Speculating the Futures of the Book and Library
DESCRIPTION:A multi-venue exhibition of site-specific installations\, performances\, interventions\, and events by University of Michigan faculty\, staff\, and students\, Bookmarks: Speculating the Futures of the Book and Library is curated by Guna Nadarajan\, dean of the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan\, in partnership with the University of Michigan Library. The exhibition will be located in several locations within Shapiro Undergraduate Library\, Hatcher Graduate Library\, and the Art\, Architecture & Engineering Library. \n\nThe continued proliferation of digital formats and systems for the embodiment\, distribution\, and delivery of knowledge increasingly displace the book as form. As a result\, the spacial limitations of libraries are challenged. The value of the book and the function of the library demand cultural attention. In this moment\, we ask ourselves: what is the future of the library? What is the future of the book? This exhibition seeks to instigate and showcase creative responses to the challenges to the book and the library in the forms we have inherited as well as to project ways of reimagining futures for/of books and libraries.\n\nBookmarks: Speculating the Futures of the Book and Library is supported by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, the University of Michigan Library\, the University of Michigan Office for Research (UMOR)\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of presents Art\, Music & Autism: Jazz Musicians in Mixed Media by Juliette Hemingway
DESCRIPTION:In Juliette Hemingway’s work\, viewers can imagine the grumbling tones of a saxophone or the sharp lines of a trombone. The sound is inside the musicians. You may not know the details of their experience or understand it\, but it's visceral. That is what jazz is in Hemingway's work. It is the instinctual part of her life that she gives to viewers as a visual excerpt: a life that revolves around healing\, autism\, creativity and awareness. Jazz and the blue-hued musicians give you a sense of the deep-rooted experiences of her son and what it is to live with autism\, and for her\, straining to look into his secret world. Hemingway is based in Aurora\, Colorado.

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+

DESCRIPTION:\"Blind House: Utopia and Dystopia in the Age of Radical Transparency\,\" by collaborative artists Paloma Muñoz and Walter Martin\, is a razor-sharp work that brings into question our ideals of house and home\, privacy\, and safety.\n\nThe exhibition combines photographs the artists have envisioned of houses without windows as well an actual glass house planned for the center of the gallery\, revisiting the whole notion of a glass house as an example of sophistication\, luxury\, and modernism.\n\nIn a darkening an era of surveillance and the internet\, for Martin and Muñoz\,  \"Blind House\" serves as \"a metaphorical solution to the full on campaign against personal privacy.\" Read the artists' statement at http://myumi.ch/6wxbk

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Ancient Color
DESCRIPTION:The Roman world was a colorful place. Although we often associate the Romans with white marble statues\, these statues — as well as Roman homes\, clothing\, and art — were vibrant with color. This exhibition examines colors in the ancient Roman world\, how these colors were produced\, where they were found\, what the Romans thought about them\, and how we study them today. We hope that visitors will think about what different colors mean to them\, and how these meanings compare to the roles of colors in the ancient Roman world.\n\nCurators: Catherine Person and Caroline Roberts\n\nView the online exhibition: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/ancient-color/

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Art Exhibit: Householdments
DESCRIPTION:John was born in Tokyo\, Japan in 1971. His family settled in Grand Rapids\, Michigan after stays in both Japan and Iowa. After attending various universities around Michigan\, John took an education hiatus to work in a cannery in Alaska. It was there that he found his calling in the pages of American Craft while scouring the tables of free magazines at the Anchorage Public Library. He received his BFA (Furniture Design) from Northern Michigan University in 1996 and his MFA (Furniture Design) from Rhode Island School of Design in 2000. John teaches in the School of Art and Design at Eastern Michigan University. John has recently exhibited work at the Muskegon Museum of Art\, the Midland Center for the Arts\, the Grand Rapids Art Museum\, and the Marshall Fredericks Sculpture Museum. He lives in Ann Arbor and maintains a studio in his home.\n\n<<>><<>><<>> Householdments <<>><<>><<>><<>><<>>\nWhile I don’t literally remember my earliest childhood years in Japan where I was born\, I have over my lifetime\, stitched together memories based on home movies\, family photos\, and images from my imagination. I “remember” the aesthetics of the place - objects and environments carefully made in wood\, stone\, and steel. Without necessarily conscious of it at the time\, I was dimly aware of Japanese visual composition. Things around me held an inherent logic and beauty\, a perfection made possible by keen tools\, quality materials\, and proficient makers. This three-part integration was embedded early on and continues to affect my own ongoing pursuit in object making.\n\nWhile finding my way as a young maker\, I realized where I belonged mostly because of how various studios smelled. The ceramics studio was musty and dirty\, the metals studio was acrid and smoky\, but the wood studio had an earthy aroma. My kind of place. The tools immediately felt right as well. Chisels\, planes\, and knives when sharpened properly could manipulate the material in ways I never expected. While I was clearly not a natural talent\, I quickly realized that a little bit of tenacity goes a long way. I also realized that I loved the logic for how wood parts can fit together. To build a wooden object or a piece of furniture each part depends on the fit of others. I deeply appreciate this fitting togetherness – how doors fit\, how drawers fit\, how joints fit\, how hinges fit. It all makes sense\, and this sensibility carries through to what I’m doing today.\n\nWorking in wood typically requires a high degree of planning before actual construction\, and over time I realized I craved the ability to work with more spontaneity. The work in this show reflects my wish to keep the working process a bit more flexible and intuitive.\n\nWhen starting with a sketch that I believe has potential\, I now begin to build directly\, without drawings or maquettes. I’ll constantly assess what has been built and allow myself to alter it\, continue with it\, or get rid of it and start over. I’m more interested in seeing where this process takes me than I am in finishing something precisely as planned. This results in some playfulness and whimsy that I hope is reflected in this work.\n\nThe word Householdments is an old and obscure term without modern usage that refers to furniture or things we keep in our houses. It strikes me as an odd word but well fitted to describe the objects in this exhibit. The pieces in this show are a collection of my personal householdments.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:ISR Hackerspace with SRC faculty Erin Ware
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Ware is a self-taught HPC user and excited to host a weekly hackerspace from February 13 to April 3\, 2019. Her training has been in genetic epidemiology\, public health\, and statistics using SAS (local)\, R (server)\, Linux (on FLUX\, MBNI\, and other personal servers)\, batch scripting (SGE\, PBS\, Slurm). Dr. Ware has taught SAS (data management and statistical modeling) and introductory statistics using R. She is experienced in teaching high performance computing to individuals with limited programming background. \n\nIn this hackerspace\, Dr. Ware is particularly interested in addressing issues of data manipulation in Linux\, efficient documentation and file naming structures\, data management (SAS/R)\, setting up an HPC connection\, WinSCP\, getting around a server using basic Linux\, genomic analysis\, and high-dimensional data analysis. Dr. Ware would like to learn about SFTP using Globus\, Python\, and more advanced batch scripting in Slurm. Dr. Ware hopes you will join her hackerspace this term.\n\nThe goal is to foster a diverse and inclusive hacking environment in which attendees can benefit from each other’s expertise. To participate\, hackers need to bring their own laptops and\, ideally\, have a chunk of code they are planning to work on unless they plan to assist and join others in their coding endeavors.

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:Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:EXPANDING OUR UNDERSTANDING OF A MUSEUM AS A CULTURAL REPOSITORY\n \nIn celebration of the University of Michigan’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and distinguished U­–M art professor Jim Cogswell was invited to create a series of public window installations in response to the holdings of the University of Michigan Museum of Art and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology. For this visionary project\, the artist adhered a procession of vivid images to the glass walls of the museums in a rhythmically evocative narrative\, based on reassembled fragments from a diverse range of artworks in both museums' permanent collections.  The juxtaposed images address our shared histories and experiences while connecting the viewer to the origins and meaning of objects and their power to shape knowledge\, memory\, and identity. By leveraging the buildings’ unique architecture\, the artist expands our understanding of a museum as a cultural repository and highlights the significant role of these institutions in the life of the campus community.  Cosmogonic Tattoos is on view at the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology through May 2\, 2018 and UMMA through June 2\, 2019.\n \n#CosmogonicTattoos\n\nLead support for Cosmogonic Tattoos is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost. Additional support for the artist's project is provided by the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Stephane Robolin Lecture
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, Stephane Robolin (Rutgers) will explore the role of libraries as institutions central to the circulation of banned literature in apartheid South Africa\, as part of a larger inquiry into the clandestine lives of public organizations.  The primary focus will be the U.S. Information Service Library in Johannesburg\, one of a global network of libraries funded by the United States to wage the Cold War through film\, literature\, and journalism.  This talk will consider how a library designed to disseminate propaganda by the U.S. government in a white minority-governed country could simultaneously serve and transgress the missions of both states.  What was the function of African American literature in its stacks?  What role could\, say\, The Autobiography of Malcolm X play in downtown Johannesburg? And what does it tell us about how the careful curation of culture works (and doesn’t) in contexts of political resistance?  And what\, if anything\, does it reveal about the nature of cultural institutions?

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Dreaming\, from Ming to Qing
DESCRIPTION:A certain span of time from the mid-sixteenth century through the end of the seventeenth century (that is\, the late Ming and very early Qing period) has been the most generative of dream-related writings and visual materials in Chinese history. This lecture will (1) outline this “arc” of dream-interest in late-imperial cultural history\, (2) assert the importance of studying dreams as part of the history of consciousness\, (3) suggest a method of approaching such a historical mega-phenomenon\, and (4) illustrate that approach with examples from the verbal and visual culture facts of the Ming-to-Qing transitional era.\n\nAbout the speaker:\n\nLynn Struve is Professor Emerita of History and of East Asian Languages and Cultures at Indiana University\, Bloomington. Her longstanding\, general interests lie in the political\, intellectual\, and cultural history of the late Ming and early Qing periods in China. In recent years she has focused on the salience of dreams and dreaming in China from the mid-sixteenth through the seventeenth century\, research which has born fruit in a forthcoming book\, The Dreaming Mind and the End of the Ming World (University of Hawaii Press).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Public Roundtable on Overcoming Challenges to Electric Vehicle Deployment
DESCRIPTION:Ceres and the Energy Institute at the University of Michigan are partnering to host a Public Presentation to discuss policies and partnerships for accelerating fleet electrification for public and private entities.\n\nIn an effort to unlock the benefits and accelerate the deployment of electric vehicles and fleets\, these two events will focus on the major stakeholders who could (1) benefit from EVs or fleet electrification and (2) play a key role in accelerating the deployment of EVs. This includes: large fleet operators–companies\, institutions and municipalities–along with auto manufacturers\, regulators\, utilities\, and electric vehicle technology and policy experts. \n\nPrior to this event\, Ceres and the Energy Institute will interview these key stakeholders\, in an effort to answer three primary questions: \n		-What factors motivate fleet operators to transition to electric vehicles? 
\n		-What are the biggest perceived barriers to fleet electrification or EV procurement? 
\n		-Which policies and/or partnerships can encourage widespread adoption of EVs?

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | The Precision Frontier of Particle Physics
DESCRIPTION:High precision technology offers a powerful new approach for particle physics.  Discovering the answers to open questions such as the hierarchy problem and the nature of dark matter may in fact require a new\, high precision approach instead of conventional techniques.  Examples of such new physics include the axion\, a solution to the strong CP problem and strongly-motivated dark matter candidate.  Technologies such as atom interferometry\, nuclear magnetic resonance\, and high precision magnetometry allow novel\, highly sensitive experiments for direct detection of dark matter and new fundamental interactions. These approaches are similar in many respects to gravitational wave detectors.  I will discuss several new detectors for dark matter and/or gravitational waves.  Such precision experiments will open new avenues for probing the origin and composition of the universe.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Unlikely Friendship of Math and Science
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: On the one hand\, there's science: the clear-eyed\, hard-nosed\, the pragmatic empiricist. On the other hand\, there's math: the poet\, the dreamer\, the hunter of wild abstractions. How do these two intellectual traditions regard one another? And why is it that the most useless-sounding math - from knot theory to meta-logic to non-Euclidean geometry - often turns out to be the most useful? Prerequisites: basic human curiosity\; tolerance for bad drawings\; the willingness to participate in a silly debate. In short: all are welcome!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Bookmarks: Speculating the Futures of the Book and Library
DESCRIPTION:A multi-venue exhibition of site-specific installations\, performances\, interventions\, and events by University of Michigan faculty\, staff\, and students\, Bookmarks: Speculating the Futures of the Book and Library is curated by Guna Nadarajan\, dean of the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan\, in partnership with the University of Michigan Library. The exhibition will be located in several locations within Shapiro Undergraduate Library\, Hatcher Graduate Library\, and the Art\, Architecture & Engineering Library. \n\nThe continued proliferation of digital formats and systems for the embodiment\, distribution\, and delivery of knowledge increasingly displace the book as form. As a result\, the spacial limitations of libraries are challenged. The value of the book and the function of the library demand cultural attention. In this moment\, we ask ourselves: what is the future of the library? What is the future of the book? This exhibition seeks to instigate and showcase creative responses to the challenges to the book and the library in the forms we have inherited as well as to project ways of reimagining futures for/of books and libraries.\n\nBookmarks: Speculating the Futures of the Book and Library is supported by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, the University of Michigan Library\, the University of Michigan Office for Research (UMOR)\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n\n

SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:American Nuclear Society Student Conference
DESCRIPTION:NUCLEAR IS ___________________________.#nuclearisThe word “nuclear” likely invokes a few specific mental images to the general public. Indeed\, prior to receiving a full undergraduate education\, even aspiring nuclear engineers may only be aware of a few applications and opportunities in the nuclear field. However\, the applications of and opportunities within nuclear science and technology go much further than power generation. For example\, the medical field has benefited greatly from advances in nuclear science and technology with nuclear-enabled tools for imaging\, cancer treatments\, and sterilization. Irradiating food offers protection from harmful microorganisms without compromising the quality of food. Nuclear science and technology provides tools to law enforcement and national security personnel to help identify threats and protect our communities. Of course\, nuclear power generation is a major focus in education\, research\, and industry\; and the successes and advances in this area are not to be overlooked.Professionals working in the nuclear industry often require skills and expertise beyond strictly nuclear science. Modeling and simulation analysts must learn and maintain computer coding skills. The nuclear power industry needs professionals that understand regulations in order to meet their strict requirements for safety. Additionally\, the nuclear power industry is looking to those with an entrepreneurial spirit to bring new technologies to fruition that promise increased performance at a lower cost. The finances of nuclear power plants are unique in the energy production sector and require those with economic expertise to plan for the continued\, financially successful operation of nuclear power plants.VCU has chosen to focus on the broad nature of nuclear science and technology with the theme “Nuclear is ________________.” Under this theme\, the conference will explore the many opportunities accustomed to students within the nuclear science and technology realm. The theme will also encompass the many supportive activities\, technologies\, and experts in varied fields of nuclear science and technology. Obvious examples of the application of the theme include: “Nuclear is thermal-hydraulics.” or “Nuclear is neutronics.” or “Nuclear is nonproliferation.” Other\, less obvious applications of the theme include: “Nuclear is cyber security.” or “Nuclear is health.” or “Nuclear is advocacy.” or “Nuclear is economics.”In addition\, this theme allows VCU to explore the subtle and ubiquitous impacts of nuclear science and technology. For example: “Nuclear is making toast.” One out of every five pieces of bread used in making toast is toasted using electricity generated from nuclear power plants. Another example would be “Nuclear is fresh herbs and spices.” Almost every jar of dried herbs or spices sold in the U.S. has been irradiated to preserve its flavor and maintain longer shelf-lives. Demonstrating the successful and safe day-to-day use of nuclear science and technology represents an important nuclear advocacy tool that we will highlight throughout the conference.Additionally\, the exciting new technologies that hold much promise for the nuclear industry will be represented by “Nuclear is entrepreneurship.” and “Nuclear is innovation.” Innovations in reactor designs\, medical applications\, and security tools will require those with the imagination and the business skills capable of launching new products and/or companies that fulfill the promise of an improved world. In contrast with the ubiquitous and mundane\, successes in innovation and entrepreneurship represent the exciting and inspiring aspects of nuclear science and technology that will energize those students in attendance.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of presents Art\, Music & Autism: Jazz Musicians in Mixed Media by Juliette Hemingway
DESCRIPTION:In Juliette Hemingway’s work\, viewers can imagine the grumbling tones of a saxophone or the sharp lines of a trombone. The sound is inside the musicians. You may not know the details of their experience or understand it\, but it's visceral. That is what jazz is in Hemingway's work. It is the instinctual part of her life that she gives to viewers as a visual excerpt: a life that revolves around healing\, autism\, creativity and awareness. Jazz and the blue-hued musicians give you a sense of the deep-rooted experiences of her son and what it is to live with autism\, and for her\, straining to look into his secret world. Hemingway is based in Aurora\, Colorado.

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:Blind House: Utopia and Dystopia in the Age of Radical Transparency
DESCRIPTION:\"Blind House: Utopia and Dystopia in the Age of Radical Transparency\,\" by collaborative artists Paloma Muñoz and Walter Martin\, is a razor-sharp work that brings into question our ideals of house and home\, privacy\, and safety.\n\nThe exhibition combines photographs the artists have envisioned of houses without windows as well an actual glass house planned for the center of the gallery\, revisiting the whole notion of a glass house as an example of sophistication\, luxury\, and modernism.\n\nIn a darkening an era of surveillance and the internet\, for Martin and Muñoz\,  \"Blind House\" serves as \"a metaphorical solution to the full on campaign against personal privacy.\" Read the artists' statement at http://myumi.ch/6wxbk

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Ancient Color
DESCRIPTION:The Roman world was a colorful place. Although we often associate the Romans with white marble statues\, these statues — as well as Roman homes\, clothing\, and art — were vibrant with color. This exhibition examines colors in the ancient Roman world\, how these colors were produced\, where they were found\, what the Romans thought about them\, and how we study them today. We hope that visitors will think about what different colors mean to them\, and how these meanings compare to the roles of colors in the ancient Roman world.\n\nCurators: Catherine Person and Caroline Roberts\n\nView the online exhibition: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/ancient-color/

SUMMARY:Presentation:Methods and Systems for Rapid\, Noninvasive Ablation of a Large Tissue-Target Using Histotripsy
DESCRIPTION:Percutaneous local ablation techniques including radiofrequency and microwave ablation are increasingly supplanting surgical resection as the standard of care for solid-tumor intervention due to lower risk of complications\, lower costs\, and shorter associated hospital stays. However\, these techniques present several risks associated with device insertion and traditionally struggle to treat tumors greater than 3 cm in diameter. Thermally-based high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) and stereotactic body radiation (SBRT) are noninvasive but have been shown to cause significant collateral damage to adjacent healthy tissues and may require an excessively long treatment time. Thus\, there is an unmet need for a noninvasive ablation technique capable of treating large tumors rapidly and safely.\n\nHistotripsy is a completely extracorporeal\, non-thermal ultrasound ablation technique which uses high-amplitude\, short-duration\, focused acoustic pulses at low duty cycle to homogenize target-tissue into an acellular slurry by means of finely-controlled acoustic cavitation. Previous studies have demonstrated that histotripsy is capable of noninvasive tissue-ablation in vivo for a broad spectrum of applications. This dissertation investigated methods and systems toward the clinical translation of histotripsy for the treatment of large-volume tissue-targets. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) was selected as a test-case to frame development efforts.\n\nIn the first part of this dissertation\, strategies for accelerating treatment based on electronic focal steering of a phased array histotripsy transducer were investigated. Research was centered around the management and manipulation of residual cavitation nuclei\, hundreds of which are dispersed throughout the focus following collapse of the cavitation bubble cloud produced by each histotripsy pulse and perturb subsequent de novo cavitation at the intended focus. A novel method in which low-gain regions of the therapy beam were utilized to drive the coalescence of residual nuclei via the secondary Bjerknes force was developed and validated. Results demonstrated 99.9% complete ablation of a 27-mL volume (equivalent to a sphere 3.7 cm in diameter) within 30 s.\n\nIn the second part of this dissertation\, compensation methods for respiratory motion of abdominal organs during histotripsy treatment were investigated. Like HIFU\, SBRT\, and several imaging modalities\, histotripsy is sensitive to the periodic respiratory motion of abdominal organs\, which oscillate with up to 4 cm peak-to-trough amplitude and at up to 3 cm/s during normal respiration. Without compensation for respiratory motion there is an elevated risk of under-treating target-tissue\, damaging adjacent healthy tissues and prolonging treatment. This part of the dissertation reviews existing methods for respiratory motion compensation\, explores the feasibility of integrating these methods with histotripsy therapy\, and presents a novel cavitation-based motion tracking technique. Using this technique\, residual cavitation nuclei were coalesced into a small bubble-system and used as an in situ fiducial marker which was tracked throughout a predefined trajectory by a histotripsy therapy system capable of receiving acoustic backscatter signals. Results demonstrated the feasibility of receiving acoustic signals from this fiducial cavitation bubble cloud throughout a 16-cm trajectory with a mean error of 0.7 ± 0.3 mm.\n\nIn the final part of the dissertation\, novel design and fabrication techniques were developed for a real-time-ultrasound-imaging guided\, highly steerable phased array histotripsy transducer for liver ablation featuring arbitrarily shaped\, densely\, packed\, and easily replaceable elements. High-powered transducers are the key enabling technology for histotripsy. Our lab has demonstrated the use of rapid prototyping methods for the fabrication of histotripsy arrays but these techniques have been limited to producing arrays with low packing density (~60%). The transducer design methods presented herein implemented a series of algorithms which analyzed human CT data to define the geometry of the array’s aperture\, divided the aperture into discrete\, nesting elements\, and simulated the electronic focal steering range of this aperture as a function of the number of elements into which it was divided. Novel fabrication methods facilitated a very small gap (0.5 mm) between active piezoelectric material which resulted in a packing density >90%. The design of the array is presented\, and the fabrication process and performance of individual elements are described. Simulation shows that this array is capable of electronically steering over a range sufficient to treat tissue-targets up to 3.6 cm in diameter in porcine or human subjects.  \n\nChair: Zhen Xu

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Art Exhibit: Householdments
DESCRIPTION:John was born in Tokyo\, Japan in 1971. His family settled in Grand Rapids\, Michigan after stays in both Japan and Iowa. After attending various universities around Michigan\, John took an education hiatus to work in a cannery in Alaska. It was there that he found his calling in the pages of American Craft while scouring the tables of free magazines at the Anchorage Public Library. He received his BFA (Furniture Design) from Northern Michigan University in 1996 and his MFA (Furniture Design) from Rhode Island School of Design in 2000. John teaches in the School of Art and Design at Eastern Michigan University. John has recently exhibited work at the Muskegon Museum of Art\, the Midland Center for the Arts\, the Grand Rapids Art Museum\, and the Marshall Fredericks Sculpture Museum. He lives in Ann Arbor and maintains a studio in his home.\n\n<<>><<>><<>> Householdments <<>><<>><<>><<>><<>>\nWhile I don’t literally remember my earliest childhood years in Japan where I was born\, I have over my lifetime\, stitched together memories based on home movies\, family photos\, and images from my imagination. I “remember” the aesthetics of the place - objects and environments carefully made in wood\, stone\, and steel. Without necessarily conscious of it at the time\, I was dimly aware of Japanese visual composition. Things around me held an inherent logic and beauty\, a perfection made possible by keen tools\, quality materials\, and proficient makers. This three-part integration was embedded early on and continues to affect my own ongoing pursuit in object making.\n\nWhile finding my way as a young maker\, I realized where I belonged mostly because of how various studios smelled. The ceramics studio was musty and dirty\, the metals studio was acrid and smoky\, but the wood studio had an earthy aroma. My kind of place. The tools immediately felt right as well. Chisels\, planes\, and knives when sharpened properly could manipulate the material in ways I never expected. While I was clearly not a natural talent\, I quickly realized that a little bit of tenacity goes a long way. I also realized that I loved the logic for how wood parts can fit together. To build a wooden object or a piece of furniture each part depends on the fit of others. I deeply appreciate this fitting togetherness – how doors fit\, how drawers fit\, how joints fit\, how hinges fit. It all makes sense\, and this sensibility carries through to what I’m doing today.\n\nWorking in wood typically requires a high degree of planning before actual construction\, and over time I realized I craved the ability to work with more spontaneity. The work in this show reflects my wish to keep the working process a bit more flexible and intuitive.\n\nWhen starting with a sketch that I believe has potential\, I now begin to build directly\, without drawings or maquettes. I’ll constantly assess what has been built and allow myself to alter it\, continue with it\, or get rid of it and start over. I’m more interested in seeing where this process takes me than I am in finishing something precisely as planned. This results in some playfulness and whimsy that I hope is reflected in this work.\n\nThe word Householdments is an old and obscure term without modern usage that refers to furniture or things we keep in our houses. It strikes me as an odd word but well fitted to describe the objects in this exhibit. The pieces in this show are a collection of my personal householdments.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EVE AND HER SISTERS
DESCRIPTION:Kenneth W. Phifer is a graduate of Harvard College and the University of Chicago Divinity School. He has been a Unitarian Universalist minister for half a century and is minister emeritus of the Ann Arbor UU Congregation.\n\nAmong the many ways in which gender roles have been shaped in the 21st century are the portraits of women (and men) in the Jewish and Christian Bibles\, and the interpretations that Judaism and Christianity\, as well as secular society\, have put on these women (and men). Too often these interpretations of women have been negative and harmful. A more careful reading of the texts\, as many scholars in the last half century have been doing\, reveals much more positive images of Biblical women. There is courage\, intelligence\, craftiness\, and common sense practicality in abundance. This lecture highlights some of these feisty women who might serve as models for the 21st century woman.\n\nThis is the first in a six-lecture series. The subject is Changing Gender Roles. The next lecture will be April 11\, 2019. The title is: The More Things Change\, The More They Stay the Same: Gender Socialization in Early Childhood.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:It’s Not Rocket Library Science: Reconceptualizing American Librarianship as a Design Field
DESCRIPTION:For thousands of years\, libraries and librarians have made artifacts to enable access to and use of information resources—everything from cataloging rules to sensory storytimes. Yet despite this focus on creation\, American librarianship has positioned itself as a social science. Although many different scientific approaches have been used in the field\, few since the beginnings of the 20th century have approached librarianship as if it was not a science at all. In recent years\, a well-established record of research has demonstrated that design is a fundamentally different epistemological approach to science.  While science observes and describes the existing world with the goal of replicability and prediction\, design creates artifacts intended to solve problems and\, ultimately\, change the world from its existing state to a preferred state. This presentation will discuss the implicit role of design in librarianship and its effects on user services and professional values\, culminating in a provocative reconceptualization of contemporary librarianship as a design field\, with recommendations for explicitly incorporating this new perspective into library research\, education\, and practice.\n\nFormerly the cataloging librarian at the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising\, Rachel Ivy Clarke is currently an assistant professor at the Syracuse University School of Information Studies. Her research focuses on the application of design methodologies and epistemologies to facilitate the systematic\, purposeful design of library services and education. Her multiple-award-winning dissertation argues that librarianship is more appropriately viewed as a design field rather than a scientific one. Current projects include the IMLS-funded Designing Future Library Leaders\, which investigates the integration of design methods and principles in graduate level library education\, and The Critical Catalog\, an OCLC/ALISE funded project using critical design methodology to provoke the exploration of diverse library reading materials. She holds a BA in creative writing from California State University\, Long Beach\, an MLIS from San Jose State University\, and a PhD from the University of Washington.

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:Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:EXPANDING OUR UNDERSTANDING OF A MUSEUM AS A CULTURAL REPOSITORY\n \nIn celebration of the University of Michigan’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and distinguished U­–M art professor Jim Cogswell was invited to create a series of public window installations in response to the holdings of the University of Michigan Museum of Art and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology. For this visionary project\, the artist adhered a procession of vivid images to the glass walls of the museums in a rhythmically evocative narrative\, based on reassembled fragments from a diverse range of artworks in both museums' permanent collections.  The juxtaposed images address our shared histories and experiences while connecting the viewer to the origins and meaning of objects and their power to shape knowledge\, memory\, and identity. By leveraging the buildings’ unique architecture\, the artist expands our understanding of a museum as a cultural repository and highlights the significant role of these institutions in the life of the campus community.  Cosmogonic Tattoos is on view at the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology through May 2\, 2018 and UMMA through June 2\, 2019.\n \n#CosmogonicTattoos\n\nLead support for Cosmogonic Tattoos is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost. Additional support for the artist's project is provided by the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series | The Consequences of Short-Time Work Schemes: Evidence from Japan
DESCRIPTION:Short-time work (STW) schemes\, publicly subsidized work time reductions\, are designed to incentivize firms to use worksharing and avoid layoffs in a recession. Japan is known for the extensive use of STW\, and we assemble unique data on STW for over 3\, 000 Japanese firms. Firms that used STW during a recession following the financial meltdown of 2008 are found to have slower employment growth in subsequent years. Such firms are\, however\, found to have similar growth of productivity and profitability in subsequent years. Japanese STW helps reduce employment volatility over the business cycle without harming firm performance. \n    \nNaomi Kodama is a Professor in the College of Economics at Nihon University in Japan. Her research interests focus on firm dynamics\, labor market institutions\, and policy evaluation. She has published in British Journal of Industrial Relations\, Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics\, and World Economy as well as a chapter in Oxford Handbook of Women and the Economy.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Deep Dive into Digital and Data Methods for Chinese Studies | How Disasters Begin: The Little Ice Age of 14th-Century China and Data Collection in the Long Durée
DESCRIPTION:Free and Open to the Public \n\nLight refreshment will be provided.\n\nThis lecture tackles the historical construction of weather as disaster. The genre of Local Gazetteers (difang zhi 地方誌) records a considerable number of disasters for the period of the Yuan-dynasty (1279-1368). The political nature of these data is well known and yet\, scientists from the early 20th to the 21st era of anthropocene debates have used them\, not only to advance their political agenda\, but also their sciences. This lecture will lead you through the way in which contemporary actors of the Yuan\, Ming historians\, and Chinese scientists from Zhu Kezhen to modern climatologists and historians produce(d) and use(d) ideas about weather and disaster. The focus of this lecture will be on the changing relations such actors draw between local knowledge\, history\, and imperial cosmology\, i.e. since the 20th century also “local knowledge\,” historical analysis\, and geology and climate science. \n    \n   Dagmar Schäfer is the Director of Department III (Artefacts\, Action\, & Knowledge) at the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science (MPIWG). A prominent scholar in the history and sociology of technology of China\, she focuses on the paradigms configuring the discourse on technological development\, past and present. She has published widely on the premodern history of China (Song-Ming) and technology\, materiality\, the processes and structures that lead to varying knowledge systems\, and the changing role of artifacts—texts\, objects\, and spaces—in the creation\, diffusion\, and use of scientific and technological knowledge. Her monograph \"The Crafting of the 10\,000 Things\" (University of Chicago Press\, 2011) won the Joseph Levenson Prize (Association for Asian Studies) in 2013 the Pfizer Award (History of Science Society) in 2012. \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:ESPApers: Open Access for Open Science
DESCRIPTION:ESPA is happy to announce a new event series entitled ‘ESPApers’\, a Science-Related Current Events Journal Club to foster a healthy and informal discussion. The plan is to hold a monthly journal club-like discussion\, through selecting science-related current topics of interest to both scientists and the public\, and deconstructing articles and white papers of differing opinions. Finally\, we are collaborating with MiSciWriters for these events with the goal of writing a blog post summarizing the discussion of the group each month.\n\nOur first topic will delve into discussing open access publishing of scholarly articles. What are the benefits and responsibilities of researchers to be open and transparent with their research findings to the public? What are the drawbacks\, risks and considerations related to moving towards completely open access? We will explore both sides of the debate\, using the following short reads to lead the discussion:\nOpen Access: The Good\, the Bad\, and the Ugly - https://bitesizebio.com/34520/open-access-good-bad-ugly/\nUC terminates subscriptions with Elsevier - https://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/press-room/uc-terminates-subscriptions-worlds-largest-scientific-publisher-push-open-access-publicly\nFree Access to Science Research Doesn't Benefit Everyone - https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2014/12/free-access-to-science-research-doesnt-benefit-everyone/383875/\n\nPlease RSVP\, we will have coffee and some snacks\, please bring your own bagged lunch!  Also suggest new topics for future meetings and let us know of your interest in writing a future summary blog post. We look forward to seeing you at the first ESPApers event!\n\nLink to RSVP: https://forms.gle/MDgzzZcibg5VSyTV9

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LSI Seminar Series: Ardem Patapoutian\, Ph.D.\, The Scripps Research Institute
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nMechanotransduction is perhaps the last sensory modality not understood at the molecular level. Proteins/ion channels that sense mechanical force are postulated to play critical roles in sensing touch/pain (somatosensation)\, sound (hearing)\, shear stress (cardiovascular function)\, etc.\; however\, the identity of ion channels involved in sensing mechanical force had remained elusive. The Patapoutian lab identified PIEZO1 and PIEZO2\, mechanically-activated cation channels that are expressed in many mechanosensitive cell types. Genetic studies established that PIEZO2 is the principal mechanical transducer for touch\, proprioception\, baroreception and lung stretch\, and that PIEZO1 mediates blood-flow sensing\, which impacts vascular development. Clinical investigations have confirmed the importance of these channels in human physiology. Most recently\, Patapoutian lab identified TMEM63/OSCA family of mechanically activated ion channels as well as a GPCR (GPR68) that senses shear stress and is essential for controlling flow-mediated dilation of blood vessels. The lab continues to analyze the physiological relevance of these receptors in and is searching for novel mechanosensors.\n\nSpeaker:\nArdem Patapoutian\, Ph.D.\, is a molecular biologist specializing in sensory transduction. His notable contributions include identifying novel ion channels activated by temperature\, mechanical force and increased cell volume. His laboratory has shown that these ion channels play crucial roles in sensing temperature\, touch\, proprioception and pain.\n \nPatapoutian was born in Lebanon and attended the American University of Beirut for one year before he immigrated to the United States in 1986. He graduated from UCLA and them received his Ph.D. at Caltech in the lab of Dr. Barbara Wold. After postdoctoral work with Dr. Lou Reichardt at UCSF\, he joined the faculty of The Scripps Research Institute in 2000\, where he is currently a professor in the Department of Neuroscience and a Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigator. He is a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science and a member of the National Academy of Sciences. Patapoutian was awarded the Young Investigator Award from the Society for Neuroscience in 2006 and the Alden W. Spencer Award from Columbia University in 2017.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Prith Banerjee: Future of Simulation-Based Product Innovation in the Digital World
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, Banerjee will discuss how the ANSYS Pervasive Simulation Platform allows hardware and software developers to work together in all phases of a product development lifecycle including Ideation\, Design Manufacturing\, and Operations. Simulation tools are increasingly being used in the ideation phase by designers to get real-time simulation of the parts as soon as they are being conceptualized. This has resulted in shorter\, agile product cycles even for hardware products allowing innovative products to be designed and produced in months and days. Companies are increasingly using model-based systems engineering concepts to take high level requirements of products\, and manage the complexity of product design using concepts of Digital Threads\, Digital Twins\, and Digital Continuity. We will touch upon some future directions of simulation-based product innovation around AI/Machine Learning\, Multi-physics Platforms\, Hyperscale Simulation\, and the convergence of the Digital and Physical worlds using IOT and Augmented Reality/Virtual Reality.\n\nPrith Banerjee is the Chief Technology Officer of ANSYS where he is responsible for leading the evolution of ANSYS’ Technology strategy and champion the company’s next phase of innovation and growth. He also serves on the Board of Directors of Cray\, Inc. and Cubic Corporation. Previously he used to be Senior Client Partner at Korn Ferry where he was responsible for IOT and Digital Transformation in the Global Industrial Practice. Formerly\, he was Executive Vice President\, Chief Technology Officer of Schneider Electric.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Using Behavioral Ecology to Understand Mobility among Prehistoric Andean Hunter-Gatherers
DESCRIPTION:In his monograph Toward a Behavioral Ecology of Lithic Technology (2009)\, Todd Surovell models mathematically the economics of prehistoric hunter-gatherers’ production\, use\, and discard of lithic technologies. Although there is great potential in his models to extend our understanding of hunter-gatherer mobility patterns and landscape use\, they have received little empirical testing in the decade since publication. This talk describes the application of one subset of his models—those that use proportions of the lithic assemblage to estimate site occupation length—to a diachronic study of Cunchaicha\, a stratified\, multi-component prehistoric rock shelter of the Peruvian Andes.

SUMMARY:Presentation:EHAP Speaker Series: Shining Evolutionary Light on Human Sleep and Health
DESCRIPTION:A well-known sleep biologist once noted\, “If sleep does not serve an absolute vital function\, then it is the biggest mistake the evolutionary process ever made.”  Indeed\, over evolutionary time\, sleep has become integrated with almost every dimension of biological function in mammals\, including growth\, cognition\, immunity\, and metabolism.  Research across mammalian species has revealed how ecological factors\, including sociality and predation\, influence sleep characteristics.  More recently\, we have documented how many of these same selective forces have shaped the evolution of human sleep relative to other primates.  I will present these evolutionary findings and discuss the follow-up research we have conducted in Madagascar and Tanzania to better understand the ecology of human sleep.  Collectively\, our findings suggest that risks and opportunity costs have shaped human sleep in terms of duration\, quality\, and social patterning.  Perceptions of threat in our increasingly urban and stressful world are likely triggering many of these same effects\, potentially leading to sleep disparities that drive health disparities in marginalized populations.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Precision Health April Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Precision Health at the University of Michigan (U-M) invites you to hear a presentation by Helen Kales\, MD\, on Thursday\, April 4. Kales\, a professor in U-M's Department of Psychiatry and Director of the Program for Positive Aging\, will present \"Using precision health to move the dementia care paradigm from sedation to person-centeredness.\" There will be time allotted for discussion after the presentation. Registration will close when full.\n\nAbstract:\nThere are currently over 5 million people with dementia in the US and over 15 million family caregivers providing them care. While memory problems are the hallmark of dementia\, the most problematic symptoms associated with the illness are behavioral and psychological. These include depression\, anxiety\, agitation\, psychosis\, aggression\, wandering\, sexually inappropriate behaviors\, and many others. While multiple expert bodies endorse the use of behavioral and environmental strategies for these behaviors first line\, the current treatment paradigm is largely one of knee-jerk sedation using psychotropics off-label. This is neither personalized nor precise. Kales will describe the creation and application of the DICE Approach to assessing and managing dementia behaviors as well as a web-based application of DICE called “The WeCareAdvisor.”\n\nBio:\nHelen Kales\, MD\, is Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Michigan and a Research Investigator in the Center for Clinical Management Research (CCMR) and the Geriatric Research Education and Clinical Center (GRECC) in the VA Ann Arbor Health System. She is a fellowship-trained\, board-certified geriatric psychiatrist\, and her research program is directly informed by her clinical work and experiences with patients\, families\, providers\, and systems to diminish the barriers to effective and high-quality care for older patients with mental health issues or dementia. Kales has published over 120 peer-reviewed papers\, and her research has been continuously federally funded since 2004. In July 2019\, Kales will become the Chair of Psychiatry and Joe Tupin Endowed Professor at the University of California\, Davis\, where she plans to establish a center on positive aging.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Dying of Whiteness: How the Politics of Racial Resentment Is Killing America's Heartland
DESCRIPTION:In the era of Donald Trump\, many lower- and middle-class white Americans are drawn to politicians who pledge to make their lives great again. But\, the policies that result actually place white Americans at ever-greater risk of sickness and death.\n\nPhysician Jonathan M. Metzl’s quest to understand the health implications of “backlash governance” leads him across America’s heartland. Interviewing a range of everyday Americans\, he examines how racial resentment fueled pro-gun laws in Missouri\, resistance to the Affordable Care Act in Tennessee\, and cuts to schools and social services in Kansas. And he shows these policies’ costs: increasing deaths by gun suicide\, rising dropout rates\, and falling life expectancies. White Americans\, Metzl argues\, must reject the racial hierarchies that promise to aid them but in fact lead our nation to demise.\n\nEvent Accessibility : \nRamp 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.

SUMMARY:Presentation:IOE 899 Seminar Series: He Wang\, Georgia Tech
DESCRIPTION:The IOE 899 Seminar Series is open to all. U-M Industrial and Operations Engineering graduate students and faculty are especially encouraged to attend.\n\nThe seminar will be followed by a reception in the IOE Commons (Room 1709) from 4:00 pm-5:00 pm.\n\nTitle: A Re-solving Heuristic with Uniformly Bounded Loss for Network Revenue Management\n\nAbstract: \nWe consider the classical Network Revenue Management problem\, where a firm has limited resources and needs to irrevocably accept or reject customer requests in order to maximize expected revenue. We study a class of “re-solving heuristics” for this problem. These heuristics periodically re-optimize an approximation of the problem known as the deterministic linear program (DLP)\, where random customer arrivals are replaced by their expectations. We find that\, in general\, frequently re-solving the DLP produces the same order of revenue loss as one would get without re solving\, which scales as the square root of the problem size. However\, by re-solving the DLP at a few selected points in time\, we design a new re-solving heuristic\, whose revenue loss is bounded by a constant that is independent of the problem size. \n\n(Joint work with PhD student Pornpawee Bumpensanti. Paper is available at: https://arxiv.org/abs/1802.06192)\n\nBio:\nHe Wang is an Assistant Professor in the School of Industrial and Systems Engineering at Georgia Tech. His research interest is in revenue management\, supply chain and logistics\, and statistical learning. His recent research focuses on developing data-driven methods for the interface between machine learning and operations management. He received his Ph.D. in Operations Research and M.S. in Transportation at MIT\, and his B.S. in Industrial Engineering and Math from Tsinghua University.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Optimizing Traffic Signal Control with Connected and Autonomous Vehicles in the Traffic Stream
DESCRIPTION:The presentation will discuss on-going work to develop optimization algorithms\,\nsimulation tools\, and sensor capabilities for enhancing traffic signal control operations when the traffic stream consists of connected vehicles\, autonomous vehicles\, and conventional vehicles. Early versions of the optimization were deployed and tested at theTraffic Engineering and Research Laboratory (TERL)\, a Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) closed-course facility. The results from the field test confirmed the feasibility of the concept and are now used to enhance the algorithm and prepare it for field deployment as part of the I-STREET real-world testbed in Gainesville\, Florida. The research\, led by UF\, is funded by NSF and FDOT\, and involves two industry partners: ISS and Econolite.\n\nDr. Elefteriadou is the Director of the UF Transportation Institute (UFTI) and the Barbara Goldsby Professor of Civil Engineering at the University of Florida. Her research focus is traffic operations\, traffic flow theory and simulation

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:\"Investigating How Dynamic Mechanical Strain in the Lung Tumor Microenvironment Influences Drug Resistance\"
DESCRIPTION:Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the United States. In-vivo\, alveolar epithelial cells normally experience 15% cyclic strain while increased tumor stiffness can result in a 40-fold decrease in cyclic strain. Although biomechanical factors in the tumor microenvironment have been shown to be a significant driver of cancer progression\, there is limited information about how biophysical forces alter tumor development and drug resistance in lung adenocarcinoma cells. Therefore\, the first goal of this study was to use computational and in-vitro models to investigate how changes in tumor microenvironment mechanics alter Erlotinib sensitivity. We also sought to develop a novel\, non-invasive way to characterize lung tumor mechanics. Although magnetic resonance electrography (MRE) has been used to measure the mechanical stiffness of soft tissues and quantify a 3-fold increase in lung tissue stiffness in fibrotic patients\, MRE has not been used to evaluate the stiffness profile of tumors within lung cancer patients. Therefore\, in this study\, we also conduct a proof-of-concept evaluation to demonstrate the ability of MRE to measure changes in lung tissue stiffness with a long-term goal of applying this technique to patients at risk for developing lung cancer. Our data indicate that cyclic stretching in the lung tumor microenvironment facilitate Erlotinib resistance. Characterizing tumor strain on a patient-specific basis may represent a novel approach to predict drug resistance and/or efficacy. We are currently using MRE measurements of lung stiffness to develop patient-specific computational models that can quantify mechanical strain at the local level. We are also designing studies to perform MRE in patient populations at risk for lung cancer (i.e. subjects with pulmonary nodules) and designing in-vitro studies that can simulate the complex biomechanics of lung tumors. \n\nYoujin Cho\, M.D.\, is a Ph.D. student in Biomedical Engineering at The Ohio State University.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Chair's Distinguished Lecture: Exploring the Physics of Multi-length Scale Flows at the Molecular Level
DESCRIPTION:Deborah Levin\, Professor\, Aerospace Engineering Department\, The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign\n\nThere is a general consensus in the hypersonics and aerospace plasma research communities that fundamental modeling of such systems requires a molecular approach.  In the last few years\, particle and kinetic approaches such as direct simulation Monte Carlo\, molecular dynamics\, and particle-in-cell have begun to offer new insights into traditional\, as well as\, non-traditional aerospace systems applications.   However\, challenges related to the large variations in length and time scales still remain.  Two diverse examples that will be presented in the seminar are (1) the kinetic treatment of electrons in space plasmas that cause spacecraft contamination and (2) the rarefaction affects in unsteady shock-boundary layer interactions.  Use of new enabling\, computational algorithms that take advantage of the heterogeneous hardware environments will be discussed. \n\nAbout the Speaker\n\nDEBORAH A. LEVIN\, Professor of aerospace engineering at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign  -  (UIUC)\, received her Ph.D. from the California Institute of Technology in chemistry.  Before joining PSU in 2000\, she held positions at the Institute for Defense Analyses and George Washington University.  Her recent research centers concentrate on the modeling of chemically reacting hypersonic flows\, radiation from hypersonic flows\, and kinetic gas dynamic approaches related to the direct simulation Monte Carlo method.  She has been a member of the AIAA Plasmadynamics and Lasers Technical Committee since 1994 and is a past-chair.  She is a Fellow of the AIAA\, associate editor of the Journal of Thermophysics and Heat Transfer\, and has co-authored over 110 archival journal article.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Development Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Regulation by Reputation? Quality Revelation of Labor Intermediaries in International Migration\n\nAbuse and contractual breach are commonplace features of international migrant labor. This may in part be due to asymmetries of information between local labor intermediaries\, prospective migrants and foreign employers. This paper examines a government program in Sri Lanka that created reputational incentives for local labor intermediaries and then publicly revealed their quality. Using a difference-in-difference design with an eligibility cutoff\, we find that the program announcement induced all eligible agencies\, and especially low-quality ones\, to invest in the rating criteria. Second\, we find that eligible agencies experience more and higher quality foreign demand after the revelation of quality. A regression discontinuity design shows that otherwise similar agencies with higher ratings experienced higher foreign demand. We find that the program facilitated better matching between local agencies and foreign employers: reputable employers switch to using higher rated agencies\, driving down future harassment complaint rates by migrants and improving the market outcomes of these agencies.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar: The impacts of Hurricane Maria on Puerto Rican forests: Is this the new normal?
DESCRIPTION:Cyclonic storms represent the dominant natural disturbance in coastal regions across much of the tropics. Projected increases in cyclonic storm rainfall and wind speeds under a warming climate will have profound effects on these ecosystems\, with implications for forest composition and structure of these and cascading ecosystem services. In this talk\, I will combine remotely-sensed and field plot data to evaluate the risk factors determining spatial variation in the magnitude of damage Hurricane María inflicted on Puerto Rican forests and to estimate total above ground biomass lost to this storm. I will then compare the impacts of H. Hugo\, category 3 storm that struck the island in 1989 with those of H. Maria on a 16-ha forest plot that has been the subject of long term study. Finally\, I will rely on an ecosystem model to explore the effects of a changing storm regime on the carbon dynamics of these forests.\n\nView YouTube video of seminar: https://youtu.be/grpqgS5s5LA

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EIHS Lecture: Psychoanalytic Perspectives on the Authoritarian's Allure: 1939\, 2019
DESCRIPTION:Psychoanalysts writing in the 1930s and 1940s as witnesses to Europe’s embrace of fascism offered incisive accounts of their own historical moment couched in the idiom of narcissism (featuring fascination\, grandiosity\, and magical thinking\; humiliation\, helplessness\, and insecurity) and drawn from psychoanalysis’s disavowed originary practices (such as hypnosis and suggestion). Individuals’ yearnings to participate in omnipotence and embrace of magical thinking sparked these analysts’ interest. In this talk\, Professor Lunbeck will examine their conceptualizations of the relationship between leader and led\, arguing that these offer a powerful framework within which to understand the fascinations of authoritarianism across the globe today. \n\nElizabeth Lunbeck is a professor of the history of science at Harvard University\, offering courses in the history of the psychotherapies\, of the psychological sciences\, and of the fortunes of psychoanalysis in American culture. She is the author of The Psychiatric Persuasion: Knowledge\, Gender\, and Power in Modern America (Princeton\, 1994)\; with Bennett Simon\, of Family Romance\, Family Secrets (Yale\, 2003)\; and of The Americanization of Narcissism (Harvard\, 2014). She has also co-edited a number of books in the history of science\, most recently\, with Lorraine Daston\, Histories of Scientific Observation (Chicago\, 2011). Her research has been supported by a Guggenheim Fellowship as well as by the NEH and NSF\, and she has been the recipient of a Distinguished Educator Award from the International Forum for Psychoanalytic Education as well as\, among other book awards\, the John Hope Franklin Prize and the Morris D. Forkosch Prize. \n\nFree and open to the public. \n\nThis event is part of the Thursday Series of the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Rubin Speaker Series
DESCRIPTION:The 2011 U.S. Special Forces’ raid on Usama Bin Ladin’s (UBL) compound in Abbottabad\, Pakistan\, recovered nearly 470\,000 items. These items include internal communications among Al-Qa‘ida (AQ) members\, their families and jihadis in the group’s orbit\, including the leaders of the parent group of today’s Islamic State.  Since these communiqués were not meant for public consumption\, they contain the most reliable data of the organizational dynamics of AQ\, and the nature of the group’s relationships with states and non-state actors. Lahoud is writing a book based on these internal communiqués. This presentation is divided into two parts. The first part is a guide to the declassified Abbottabad items and the process of identifying the internal communications and coding them. The second part of the presentation focuses on key differences between AQ and the parent group of today’s Islamic State\, the group that has eclipsed but not defeated AQ. The Abbottabad documents allow us not just to understand the differences that eventually led to the public divorce between the two groups in February 2014\, but they also explain why the Islamic State failed to endure as a territorial entity. \n\nNelly Lahoud is a senior fellow in New America's International Security program. Dr. Lahoud’s research has focused on the evolution and ideology of al-Qa'ida (AQ) and the ‘Islamic State’ (ISIS/ISIL). She has also published on women's role in AQ and ISIS and the use of anashid (a capella) by these two groups in their media output. She has a Ph.D. from the Research School of Social Sciences — Australian National University. She was a postdoctoral scholar at St. John’s College\, University of Cambridge — UK\; Rockefeller Fellow in Islamic studies at the Library of Congress\; and research fellow at the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs\, Harvard University. Her previous appointments include being associate professor at the Department of Social Sciences and senior associate at the Combating Terrorism Center at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point\; and assistant professor of political theory\, including Islamic political thought\, at Goucher College. Lahoud is fluent in Arabic and French.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Agents of Change for Resilient Infrastructure
DESCRIPTION:The effects of Hurricane Sandy on New York City and subsequent programs to improve the City’s infrastructure are described in this lecture. Special attention is focused on the restoration of the L Line Tunnel\, which was flooded by Hurricane Sandy. Professor O’Rourke will describe how a team from Cornell and Columbia Universities was assembled at the request of Governor Andrew Cuomo to help reengineer a $1/2 billion project to rehabilitate the subway tunnel\, and still keep the subway in service. The new approach integrates several advanced technologies\, including distributed fiber optics and LiDAR\, and makes a breakthrough in infrastructure restoration resulting from interdisciplinary work between civil and electrical engineers. The agents of change that lead to improved policies and approaches are explored\, including the technical\, institutional\, and social challenges of introducing new technologies and engaging community support.\n\nThomas O' Rourke is a professor of the Engineering Department at Cornell University.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Bookmarks: Speculating the Futures of the Book and Library
DESCRIPTION:A multi-venue exhibition of site-specific installations\, performances\, interventions\, and events by University of Michigan faculty\, staff\, and students\, Bookmarks: Speculating the Futures of the Book and Library is curated by Guna Nadarajan\, dean of the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan\, in partnership with the University of Michigan Library. The exhibition will be located in several locations within Shapiro Undergraduate Library\, Hatcher Graduate Library\, and the Art\, Architecture & Engineering Library. \n\nThe continued proliferation of digital formats and systems for the embodiment\, distribution\, and delivery of knowledge increasingly displace the book as form. As a result\, the spacial limitations of libraries are challenged. The value of the book and the function of the library demand cultural attention. In this moment\, we ask ourselves: what is the future of the library? What is the future of the book? This exhibition seeks to instigate and showcase creative responses to the challenges to the book and the library in the forms we have inherited as well as to project ways of reimagining futures for/of books and libraries.\n\nBookmarks: Speculating the Futures of the Book and Library is supported by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, the University of Michigan Library\, the University of Michigan Office for Research (UMOR)\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n\n

SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:American Nuclear Society Student Conference
DESCRIPTION:NUCLEAR IS ___________________________.#nuclearisThe word “nuclear” likely invokes a few specific mental images to the general public. Indeed\, prior to receiving a full undergraduate education\, even aspiring nuclear engineers may only be aware of a few applications and opportunities in the nuclear field. However\, the applications of and opportunities within nuclear science and technology go much further than power generation. For example\, the medical field has benefited greatly from advances in nuclear science and technology with nuclear-enabled tools for imaging\, cancer treatments\, and sterilization. Irradiating food offers protection from harmful microorganisms without compromising the quality of food. Nuclear science and technology provides tools to law enforcement and national security personnel to help identify threats and protect our communities. Of course\, nuclear power generation is a major focus in education\, research\, and industry\; and the successes and advances in this area are not to be overlooked.Professionals working in the nuclear industry often require skills and expertise beyond strictly nuclear science. Modeling and simulation analysts must learn and maintain computer coding skills. The nuclear power industry needs professionals that understand regulations in order to meet their strict requirements for safety. Additionally\, the nuclear power industry is looking to those with an entrepreneurial spirit to bring new technologies to fruition that promise increased performance at a lower cost. The finances of nuclear power plants are unique in the energy production sector and require those with economic expertise to plan for the continued\, financially successful operation of nuclear power plants.VCU has chosen to focus on the broad nature of nuclear science and technology with the theme “Nuclear is ________________.” Under this theme\, the conference will explore the many opportunities accustomed to students within the nuclear science and technology realm. The theme will also encompass the many supportive activities\, technologies\, and experts in varied fields of nuclear science and technology. Obvious examples of the application of the theme include: “Nuclear is thermal-hydraulics.” or “Nuclear is neutronics.” or “Nuclear is nonproliferation.” Other\, less obvious applications of the theme include: “Nuclear is cyber security.” or “Nuclear is health.” or “Nuclear is advocacy.” or “Nuclear is economics.”In addition\, this theme allows VCU to explore the subtle and ubiquitous impacts of nuclear science and technology. For example: “Nuclear is making toast.” One out of every five pieces of bread used in making toast is toasted using electricity generated from nuclear power plants. Another example would be “Nuclear is fresh herbs and spices.” Almost every jar of dried herbs or spices sold in the U.S. has been irradiated to preserve its flavor and maintain longer shelf-lives. Demonstrating the successful and safe day-to-day use of nuclear science and technology represents an important nuclear advocacy tool that we will highlight throughout the conference.Additionally\, the exciting new technologies that hold much promise for the nuclear industry will be represented by “Nuclear is entrepreneurship.” and “Nuclear is innovation.” Innovations in reactor designs\, medical applications\, and security tools will require those with the imagination and the business skills capable of launching new products and/or companies that fulfill the promise of an improved world. In contrast with the ubiquitous and mundane\, successes in innovation and entrepreneurship represent the exciting and inspiring aspects of nuclear science and technology that will energize those students in attendance.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of presents Art\, Music & Autism: Jazz Musicians in Mixed Media by Juliette Hemingway
DESCRIPTION:In Juliette Hemingway’s work\, viewers can imagine the grumbling tones of a saxophone or the sharp lines of a trombone. The sound is inside the musicians. You may not know the details of their experience or understand it\, but it's visceral. That is what jazz is in Hemingway's work. It is the instinctual part of her life that she gives to viewers as a visual excerpt: a life that revolves around healing\, autism\, creativity and awareness. Jazz and the blue-hued musicians give you a sense of the deep-rooted experiences of her son and what it is to live with autism\, and for her\, straining to look into his secret world. Hemingway is based in Aurora\, Colorado.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Ancient Color
DESCRIPTION:The Roman world was a colorful place. Although we often associate the Romans with white marble statues\, these statues — as well as Roman homes\, clothing\, and art — were vibrant with color. This exhibition examines colors in the ancient Roman world\, how these colors were produced\, where they were found\, what the Romans thought about them\, and how we study them today. We hope that visitors will think about what different colors mean to them\, and how these meanings compare to the roles of colors in the ancient Roman world.\n\nCurators: Catherine Person and Caroline Roberts\n\nView the online exhibition: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/ancient-color/

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Theory: Community Enforcement of Trust with Bounded Memory
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nWe examine how trust is sustained in large societies with random matching\, when records of past transgressions are retained for a finite length of time. To incentivise trustworthiness\, defaulters should be punished by temporary exclusion. However\, it is profitable to trust defaulters who are on the verge of rehabilitation. With perfect bounded information\, defaulter exclusion unravels and trust cannot be sustained\, in any purifiable equilibrium. A coarse information structure\, that pools recent defaulters with those nearing rehabilitation\, endogenously generates adverse selection\, sustaining punishments. Equilibria where defaulters are trusted with positive probability improve efficiency\, by raising the proportion of likely re-offenders in the pool of defaulters.\n\nJoint with V. Bhaskar

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Applied Microeconomics/IO\, Public Finance\, Business Economics Seminar: Preferred Pharmacy Networks and Drug Costs
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nSelective contracting is a popular tool for reducing health care costs\, but these savings must be weighed against consumer surplus losses from restricted access. In public and private prescription drug plans\, issuers utilize preferred pharmacy networks to reduce drug prices. We show that\, in the Medicare Part D program\, drug plans with restrictive preferred pharmacy networks pay lower retail drug prices\; however\, enrollee insensitivity to preferred pharmacy copay discounts leads to higher prices. We then estimate plan and pharmacy demand models to quantify the costs and benefits of selective contracting with heterogeneous enrollee sensitivity to benefit design.\n\nJoint with Amanda Starc

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:Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:EXPANDING OUR UNDERSTANDING OF A MUSEUM AS A CULTURAL REPOSITORY\n \nIn celebration of the University of Michigan’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and distinguished U­–M art professor Jim Cogswell was invited to create a series of public window installations in response to the holdings of the University of Michigan Museum of Art and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology. For this visionary project\, the artist adhered a procession of vivid images to the glass walls of the museums in a rhythmically evocative narrative\, based on reassembled fragments from a diverse range of artworks in both museums' permanent collections.  The juxtaposed images address our shared histories and experiences while connecting the viewer to the origins and meaning of objects and their power to shape knowledge\, memory\, and identity. By leveraging the buildings’ unique architecture\, the artist expands our understanding of a museum as a cultural repository and highlights the significant role of these institutions in the life of the campus community.  Cosmogonic Tattoos is on view at the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology through May 2\, 2018 and UMMA through June 2\, 2019.\n \n#CosmogonicTattoos\n\nLead support for Cosmogonic Tattoos is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost. Additional support for the artist's project is provided by the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CSEAS Friday Lecture Series.    The Thousand Year Old Stolen Burmese Buddha Who Traveled The World And The Saga Of Its Return
DESCRIPTION:This presentation will profile the return of a rare Buddha image that was stolen from a remote temple in Bagan in 1988 and would travel around the world before finally being returned to its home country in 2012. This long saga\, which involved looters\, antique dealers\, art historians\, lawyers\, ambassadors and curators\, demonstrates the intricate complexities in restituting objects. The priceless sculpture was transported from Myanmar (also known as Burma) to Bangkok\, San Francisco\, New York\, Chicago and Paris. It would be saved from the auction block\, before drawing the involvement of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and becoming the subject of a precedent setting lawsuit for antiquities. \n    \n   This research explored the different phases of this complex and successful story but also question how to implement restitutions most efficiently in the 21st century. Indeed\, as the themes behind this stolen Buddha’s history have wider resonance for the region. Southeast Asian policymakers have been debating for decades on how to best protect their national heritage from criminals\, while fighting for the restitution of stolen artworks. While the level success within each country has varied\, much remains to be done in facing the continuing challenge of art trafficking. \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.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Seminar Series: Luke Miratrix\, Assistant Professor\, Harvard Graduate School of Education
DESCRIPTION:The current causal inference literature on blocking has two main branches: one on larger blocks\, with multiple treatment and control units in each block and the second on matched pairs\, with a single treatment and control unit in each block. For larger blocks\, variance estimation is relatively straightforward. For matched pairs\, however\, because one cannot directly estimate variance within a block we have to use estimators that look at variation across the blocks. These alternative estimators have been evaluated under different assumptions than found in the large block literature. Because of this\, these two literatures do not handle cases with blocks of varying sizes\, but which contain singleton treatment or control units. This has also created some confusion regarding the benefits of blocking in general. In this talk\, we reconcile the literatures by carefully examining the performance of different estimators of treatment effect and of variance under several different frameworks. We also provide variance estimators for experiments with many small blocks of different sizes and for experiments with mixtures of large and small blocks. We finally discuss in which situations blocking is or is not guaranteed to reduce the variance of our estimator.\n\nNicole Pashley & Luke Miratrix

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CSAAW TALK \"How Cancer Arises Based on Complexity Theory.\"
DESCRIPTION:Background: The War on Cancer has failed\, due in part to its reliance on reductionist thinking to understand how cancer arises and evolves. \n \nMethods: We reviewed cancer risk factors across major sites and categorized them based on a complexity theory approach of analyzing patterns of network behavior\, which are more uniform than changes to downstream oncogenes. Focusing too much on specific details of the networks ignores the overriding theme that the emergence of generic network features is independent of these details. \n \nResults: Cancer is caused by 9 sources of chronic cellular stress which often interact to provide the multiple “hits” that produce malignancy. They are: chronic inflammation (due to infection\, infestation\, autoimmune disorders\, trauma\, overweight\, diabetes and other causes)\; exposure to carcinogens\; reproductive hormones\; Western diet (low fiber\, vegetable and fruit consumption\; high fat)\; aging\; radiation\; immune system dysfunction\; germ line changes and random chronic stress / bad luck. \n \nConclusions: Cancer is an inevitable tradeoff of human biologic design that will always be with us\, particularly as life expectancy increases. However\, we can often prevent it\, we can detect it earlier and we can treat it more effectively. Most cancer is cause by chronic cellular stress\, which disturbs the delicate balance of our interconnected biologic networks. Malignancy arises due to a build up of hierarchies\, in which combination of agents (biomarkers and networks) at one level become agents at the next level. Hierarchies are identifiable by patterns of molecular changes and sometimes by accompanying histologic changes. New cancer treatment approaches will focus on targeting multiple networks to overcome tumor heterogeneity\, reducing the chronic stressors\, moving networks into less lethal states and targeting the chaotic nature of tumors.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Seminars | Cosmic Censorship Violation and Black Hole Collisions in Higher Dimensions
DESCRIPTION:The cosmic censorship conjecture raises the question of whether classical gravitational dynamics can drive a low-energy configuration into an accessible regime of quantum gravity\, with Planck-scale curvatures and energy densities visible by distant observers. I will present evidence that cosmic censorship is violated in the quintessential phenomenon of General Relativity: the collision and merger of two black holes. It only requires a sufficient total angular momentum in a collision in high enough number of dimensions.\nNevertheless\, I will argue that even if cosmic censorship is violated in this and in some other know instances\, its spirit remains unchallenged: classical relativity describes the physics seen by observers outside the black holes accurately\, with only minimal quantum input that does not entail macroscopic disruptions.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Psychlogy Methods Hour:  #Parenting Projects: Using Twitter to Understand Mothering and Fathering
DESCRIPTION:This presentation will mainly introduce a few different methodologies to study parenting using Twitter data. The presenters will provide some background information on the prevalence of parents' use of Twitter and then provide rationale for studying fathering and mothering\, especially amongst stay-at-home fathers and mothers\, using Twitter data. Specifically\, the presenters will introduce a few studies their group has conducted to better understand topics and content stay-at-home parents discuss. The presentation will culminate in discussing a number of challenges and opportunities that arise when using Twitter to engage in parenting research. The presenters hope to generate and engage in subsequent discussions on these methodological and ethical issues.

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:Lecture / Discussion:Social Worth Affirmation
DESCRIPTION:Teams often fail to reach their potential because each member’s need to feel accepted prevents him or her from offering their unique perspective or information to the team. Drawing on self-affirmation theory\, we propose that social worth affirmation – which we define as the process by which an individual’s unique contributions are affirmed by social relationships – can prepare individuals to contribute to team performance more effectively. We theorize that affirming team members’ social worth spills over to the new team context\, thereby decreasing their social concerns about being accepted by other members. This\, in turn\, leads to better information exchange and performance in teams. In a first field experiment\, we found that teams in which members experienced social worth affirmation prior to team formation performed better on a problem-solving task (compared to teams without social worth affirmation). In a second experiment\, conducted using task-oriented teams in the U.S. military\, we tested a full model that social worth affirmation influences information exchange and team performance by reducing members’ concerns about social acceptance. In the third experiment using virtual teams\, we find that social worth affirmation improves teams’ ability to exchange information by sharing unique information cues.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:After Hybridity: Grafting as a Model for Cultural Translation
DESCRIPTION:The notion of cultural translation as it was developed by postcolonial studies attempts to cope not only with the foreignness of language\, but also with 'the other' as a foreigner. In order to overcome various shades of 'othering\,' Homi Bhabha and other postcolonial theorists have conceptualized interactions between different cultures as processes of hybridization. \nI would like to propose an alternative model for describing processes of cultural translation\, namely the model of grafting that has been used not only by Jacques Derrida as a metaphor for textual cut and paste operations\, but also by Johann Gottfried Herder and Friedrich Schleiermacher for the purpose of coming to terms with the foreignness of other languages as well as other cultures. \n \nUwe Wirth holds the chair for German Literature and Cultural Theory at the German Department at the Julius-Liebig-University Giessen since 2007. From 2005 until 2007 he was the scientific coordinator at the Center for Advanced Literary and Cultural Research (ZfL) in Berlin. \nIn his dissertation\, he addressed topics such as the theories of humor and stupidity (published 1999 under the title Diskursive Dummheit: Abduktion und Komik als Grenzphänomen des Verstehens\, [Discursive Stupidity: Abduction and Comic as Border Phenomena of Understanding\, 1999]. In his 'habilitation'\, he reconstructed the central role of editorial fiction in German literature 'around 1800' (published by the Fink Verlag under the title: Die Geburt des Autors aus dem Geist der Herausgeberfiktion. Editoriale Rahmung im Roman um 1800: Wieland\, Goethe\, Brentano\, Jean Paul und E.T.A. Hoffmann [The Birth of the Author from the Spirit of Editorial Fiction. Editorial framing in the novel around the year 1800: Wieland\, Goethe\, Brentano\, Jean Paul and E.T.A. Hoffmann]. His current research interest is the model of grafting as a model for intercultural relationships as well as a metaphor of inscription and quotation.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Being Brown: South Asian Narratives of Brownness in Southeast Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Using an interdisciplinary lens\, the exhibit explores the heterogeneity in the contours of brown narratives among South Asians in the Midwest. Although there is an emerging interest in the social construction of brownness on its own terms\, most of such explorations are situated either in the East or West Coast. Rarely have the narratives of brownness in the Midwest been explored. The Midwest\, particularly Ann Arbor and the greater Detroit area\, has a sizable population of South Asians who work in a variety of blue collar to professional jobs that range from motel cleaners to doctors.\n\nThis exhibit was curated by Ram Mahalingam\, Osman Khan\, and Aswin Punathamebkar.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Sustainable Systems Forum
DESCRIPTION:Participatory action research (PAR) is a powerful methodology for generating collective knowledge and change. We will describe PAR\, its particular relevance to agroecology and food system work\, and its application in our educator training program Laboratorios para la Vida (LabVida). LabVida has been working for eight years to train educators to use school gardens and food systems as venues for inquiry-based learning linking local and academic knowledge. We applied PAR to development and analysis of our training program\, and invited participating educators to use PAR with their groups to explore and improve their food environments. PAR has proven to be an effective tool for generating small but significant changes in participants' narratives and practices.\n \nHelda Morales is from Guatemala City and went to college there. She did graduate work in Costa Rica and then at U of M. Her research has documented the importance of traditional knowledge in constructing sustainable agriculture systems that avoid using harmful pesticides. Recently\, she has focused on education and food systems\, working with local urban and rural growers and farmers markets as well as international organizations. She is a founder and active member of AMA-AWA\, the Alliance of Women in Agroecology.\n\nBruce Ferguson grew up in Kalamazoo\, studied at Kalamazoo College. He did graduate work at the University of Michigan with John Vandermeer and Ivette Perfecto focusing on ecological succession and restoration. He currently does research and teaching in agroecology\, food systems\, and pedagogy. He is in Ann Arbor\, spending part of his sabbatical year at U of M.\n\nTheir current research involves school gardens and food system education. They are both members of the Department of Agriculture\, Society\, and the Environment at El Colegio de la Frontera Sur in San Cristóbal de Las Casas\, Chiapas\, Mexico\, where they are part of a group working on scaling out agroecology to achieve more just and sustainable food systems. Together\, Bruce and Helda coordinate Laboratorios para la Vida\, a program that trains teachers to use gardens and food systems as educational tools.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Department Colloquium: Catrin Campbell-Moore (Bristol University)
DESCRIPTION:In some unfortunate situations\, rationality doesn't allow you to settle on a stable opinion. These are cases where becoming more confident that things will go one way gives you evidence that they'll go the other way\; and vice versa. In these cases\, any belief you adopt undermines itself. I suggest that in such scenarios you should adopt imprecise probabilities. This connects to accounts for the liar paradox\, in particular a supervaluational version of Kripke's account of truth.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Intertwined orders and fermions in holography
DESCRIPTION:Behind the unconventional behavior of many strongly interacting quantum systems is an intrinsically complex phase diagram exhibiting a variety of orders.  These may not only compete but also cooperate with each other\, describing phases with a common origin that are intertwined. Holographic techniques provide a theoretical laboratory to probe such strongly correlated systems\, offering a new window into their dynamics.\nIn this talk I will discuss a holographic model of a striped superconductor\, which provides a concrete realization of intertwined orders. I will also examine the formation and structure of Fermi surfaces in various holographic systems with broken translational invariance. In particular\, we will see that sufficiently strong lattice effects generically cause the Fermi surface to dissolve\, leaving behind disconnected segments. This segmentation process is reminiscent of the puzzling Fermi arc phenomenon observed in the high temperature superconductors.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Social History of Art: What Matters\, Then and Now
DESCRIPTION:Symposium on the Social History of Art honoring Alexander Potts and Susan Siegfried\nwith guest speakers Thomas Crow (Institute of Fine Arts\, NYU) and Darcy Grigsby (UC Berkeley)\n\n\"Ingres’s Creoles\"\nDarcy Grimaldo\n\nSummary: In 1836 Ingres ordered an artistic encounter between two Creoles who had both been born in Saint-Domingue\, renamed Haiti. From Rome\, the fifty-six year-old painter exerted his power over an “homme de couleur” and a black man by orchestrating a confrontation that left both men in ignorance of its ultimate purpose. Ingres’s sixteen year old student Théodore Chassériau\, was being told secretly to paint the celebrated black model Joseph\, famously placed at the apex of Géricault’s Raft of the Medusa. While refusing to share his intentions with either man\, Ingres confided to a friend that the subject was “Christ Chasing the Devil from the Mountain. As for the pupil\, he does not need to know this.”  Locked behind closed doors and left in the dark as to Ingres’s plans\, two Creoles – painter and model -  confronted one another\; the result of this encounter was Chassériau’s famous Étude de Nègre of 1838. This talk analyzes the picture and the circumstances of its making in light of France’s colonial history. \n\n\"The Hidden Mod in the New Art History: Another Origin Story\".  \nThomas Crow\n\nSummary: the revival of art history as an intellectual discipline from about 1975 drew much of its strength from Parisian modern-life painting in the later 19th century. The story of how it got there contains an earlier and overlooked contribution that surprisingly arose from the rebellious youth culture of postwar London.\n\nFree and open to the public.

DESCRIPTION:Join us for the opening of the Being Brown: South Asian Narratives of Browness in Southeast Michigan exhibit! Come hear from these panelists:\n\nGunalan Nadarajan\, Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\nLeela Fernandes\, Womens’ Studies\nAkil Kumarasamy\, English and Creative Writing\nAliyah Khan\, Department of English\nSwarnavel Pillai\, English and Media & Information\, Michigan State University  \n\nAbout the exhibit:\n\nUsing an interdisciplinary lens\, the exhibit explores the heterogeneity in the contours of brown narratives among South Asians in the Midwest. Although there is an emerging interest in the social construction of brownness on its own terms\, most of such explorations are situated either in the East or West Coast. Rarely have the narratives of brownness in the Midwest been explored. The Midwest\, particularly Ann Arbor and the greater Detroit area\, has a sizable population of South Asians who work in a variety of blue collar to professional jobs that range from motel cleaners to doctors.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: The Stable Isotopic Fingerprint of Landscapes and Life
DESCRIPTION:The elevation history of the Earth’s surface and large orogens in particular reflects the competing roles of geodynamic processes in crust and mantle as well as erosion. At the same time\, mountains host a substantial proportion of the world’s species and the long-term surface elevation history of orogens not only affects local (e.g. rainfall\, seasonality\, biodiversity) but also global climatic conditions e.g. through atmospheric teleconnections. Recovering the timing and rates of Earth’s surface processes\, therefore\, directly links to patterns of biomes and biodiversity at the interface of atmospheric and geodynamic processes. Here I present stable and clumped isotope approaches from the European Alps (Switzerland)\, the Anatolian plateau (Turkey) and the East African Rift System (Malawi) to identify the interactions of regional surface uplift and climate change on paleo-environmental conditions. Given the rapid technological advances in modeling and proxy approaches to determine paleoelevation as well as phylogenetic techniques in recovering the evolutionary history of mountainous species\, understanding the interactions among biodiversity and Earth surface processes will develop into a key opportunity for the geological and biological sciences.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:DAAS Diasporic Dialogues: “Theatre\, Womanist Knowledge-Making and Violence in Jamaica: Witnessing A Vigil for Roxie.”
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, Nicosia Shakes analyzes a 2015 performance of the play\, A Vigil for Roxie\, co-created by Jamaican theatre artists\, Carol Lawes\, Eugene Williams\, Honor Ford-Smith and Amba Chevannes.  As part of the Memory\, Urban Violence and Performance Project founded by Ford-Smith\, Vigil for Roxie draws on the memorial practices of working-class Black Jamaican women who have lost loved ones to gang and state violence over the past three decades. Shakes utilizes a womanist paradigm to explore the racial\, economic and gendered dimensions of memory\, healing and justice as depicted in Vigil.  By representing experiences of gang and state violence through the bodies and voices of Black women\, Vigil challenges mainstream male-centered understandings of violence while creating a holistic vision of social justice involving the community\, nation and wider region of the Americas.\n\n \n\nBio\n\nNicosia Shakes is Assistant Professor in the Department of Africana Studies at The College of Wooster. Her book manuscript\, Gender\, Race and Performance Space: Women’s Activism in Jamaican and South African Theatre\, won the National Women’s Studies Association/University of Illinois Press First Book Prize in 2017\, and is under contract with UIP.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Lecture: \"On Shakespeare's Roman Trails\"
DESCRIPTION:How do we address Shakespeare’s Roman plays to contemporary audiences? We can make our productions strongly\, even aggressively about our politics rather than Rome’s or early modern England’s. But one major area of Shakespeare marketing that Shakespeare cultural criticism has almost completely ignored is the film - and now also the theatre – trailer. Trailers are everywhere. No longer only in the movie theatre\, they fill our tvs and are all over the web. Peter Holland considers how they conceptualize - and invite us into - Shakespeare's Roman plays.\n\nTo be followed by public reception

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Making Connections: Data Science Approaches to Understanding Mood and Cognition in the Modern Era
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: In this talk Dr. Leow will share her reflections\, as both a computational researcher and a practicing psychiatrist\, on the current landscape of psychiatric neuroimaging research and where we go from here. \n\nTo this end\, she argues that recent advances in data science and information technology will revolutionize the way we conceptualize psychiatric disorders and enable us to objectively quantify their symptomatology\, which traditionally has been primarily based on self reports. \n\nTo illustrate\, she will highlight two lines of ongoing research that apply data science approaches to the assessment of mood and cognition. In the first example\, she will propose how EEG connectomics coupled with manifold learning and dimensionality reduction may allow us to measure the ‘speed of thinking’ on a sub-second time scale. In the second example\, she will introduce her recent joint work with Dr. Melvin McInnis that seeks to unobtrusively turn smartphones into ‘stethoscopes’ of the brain\, in real time and in the wild. \n\n \n\nBio: Dr. Alex Leow is an Associate Professor in the Departments of Psychiatry\, Bioengineering\, and Computer Science at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) and an attending physician at the University of Illinois Hospital. With Dr. Olu Ajilore\, Alex founded the Collaborative Neuroimaging Environment for Connectomics (CoNECt) at UIC. CoNECt is an inter-departmental research team devoted to the study of the human brain using multidisciplinary approaches of brain imaging\, non-invasive brain stimulation\, Big Data analytics\, virtual-reality immersive visualization\, and more recently mobile technologies.\n\nMost relevant to this talk\, Alex is honored to the project lead of the BiAffect project. BiAffect is the first scientific study that seeks to turn smartphones into “brain fitness trackers”\, by unobtrusively inferring neuropsychological functioning using entirely passively-collected typing kinematics metadata (i.e.\, not what you type but how you type it) from a smartphone’s virtual keyboard. The iOS BiAffect study app now powers the first-ever crowd-sourced research study to unobtrusively measure mood and cognition in real-time using iPhones and Apple’s ResearchKit framework. \n\nThe CoNECt team’s research has been extensively featured in the news\, including more recently in Chicago Tribune\, Chicago Tonight\, Forbes\, the Wall Street Journal\, the Associated Press news\, and the Rolling Stone.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:NERS Colloquium:  Tom Mehlhorn\, US Naval Research Laboratory
DESCRIPTION:Eighth Annual Richard K. Osborn Lecture\n\nAbstract: Laboratory thermonuclear fusion experiments with z-pinches\, tokamaks\, stellarators\, and mirror machines began in the early 1950’s\, but achieving the Holy Grail of energy breakeven has remained a Quixotic quest. The first laser was built in 1960 and by 1974\, KMS fusion in Ann Arbor reported the first thermonuclear neutrons from a laser-driven inertial confinement fusion (ICF) implosion (Chroma laser: 0.8kJ). The optimism of producing net energy with modest lasers based on 1-D simulations with limited physics proved unfounded. In the succeeding 45 years\, a series of larger lasers has been built\, but NIF (1.8 MJ) @ LLNL has yet to achieve ignition. All the approaches in the NNSA ICF program\, laser indirect and direct drive\, as well as magnetic direct drive on Z at Sandia will require a major new facility to produce significant yield. Can modern computing models\, validated by new data on critical physics issues\, help cut the Gordian Knot and establish a credible path for a high yield facility? Until recently\, computational constraints limited the physical adequacy of our ICF design tools. In particular\, thermal conduction flux limiters are still used in direct and indirect drive laser ICF target design\, rather than accounting for the kinetic and non-local nature of electron heat transport. My 1978 dissertation on Fokker-Planck modeling was motivated by this problem\, but the development of practical models for use in 3-D rad-hydro codes is ongoing. Excitingly\, recent measurements on Omega of nonlocal heat flux in laser-produced coronal plasmas using a novel Thomson scattering technique [1] are finally providing the missing validation data for these models\, and Vlasov-Fokker-Planck simulations are in progress to determine the self-consistent electron distribution functions and heat flux. Improvements in this and related laser-plasma interaction models will provide a firmer foundation for future extrapolations. My talk concludes with a roadmap for achieving ignition and yield from direct drive ICF with excimer lasers.\n\nBio: Dr. Tom Mehlhorn\, heads the Plasma Physics Division at the Naval Research Laboratory where he oversees a broad spectrum of research\, including fusion\, pulsed power\, laser wakefield acceleration\, space plasmas\, and plasma processing. He has a B.S.\, M.S. and Ph.D. in Nuclear Engineering from the University of Michigan. Dr. Mehlhorn has received several scientific awards\, including the 2004 U of M Alumni Society Award in NERS. He is a Fellow of the APS Division of Plasma Physics\, the AAAS in Physics\, and the IEEE.  He is an author on over 160 peer-reviewed papers.\n\nThis annual lecture series has been made possible by a generous endowment by MIT Professor Emeritus Sidney Yip\, a former student of Professor Osborn. These annual lectures are a tribute to Professor Osborn's unwavering dedication to education of students in fundamental science. It is the goal of these lectures to inspire future generations of students in nuclear theory and simulation.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Seminar Title: “Protein conformational change we can believe in!”
DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT: Protein conformational landscapes are complex and predicting the conformational response to physiologically relevant perturbations like mutation or small molecule binding is a major challenge. Often\, functionally-relevant states are nearly isoenergetic (separated in energy by a few kT\, or less)\, meaning that at physiological temperatures\, multiple conformational states populate the ensemble. Using newly developed multiconformer models of X-ray crystallography data\, we have shown how population shifts can result from simple temperature perturbation. Our experience over multiple systems has demonstrated that temperature sensitive conformational states are the same ones used by evolution to create new functions\, by small molecules in creating new binding sites\, and by enzymes to transit through a catalytic cycle. Using an easily controllable physical perturbation (temperature) to predict the conformational response to physiological perturbations suggests the specific conformations to enforce at allosteric sites to achieve long-range control over protein activity.

SUMMARY:Performance:Guest Recital: Artemisia Vocal Trio
DESCRIPTION:Chicago-based vocal trio Artemisia (Diana Lawrence\, Alexandra Olsavsky\, and Kaitlin Foley) harnesses the power of the female voice to explore complex social issues through the vocal traditions of the world. Praised for “sincerity\, wit\, and mind-blowing technique” (Vocal Arts Chicago)\, Artemisia brings diversity and accessibility to their programming. Not your typical stand-and-sing ensemble\, Artemisia draws from a vast repertoire of vocal styles to take audiences on a journey of sound and spirit with every performance. In addition to performing\, Artemisia works with community and youth ensembles to advocate for a culturally literate and socially aware approach to singing. Artemisia will be performing their show “Suit and Tie\,” a program featuring music that was originally performed by/used by men\, now sung by women. It is a fully staged\, immersive show that explores gender in music and culture\, told through the vocal music traditions from all around the world in an accessible and humorous narrative.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:2019 Robert F. Berkhofer Jr. Lecture: An Evening With Mary Kathryn Nagle
DESCRIPTION:Native American Studies at the University of Michigan presents the 2019 Robert F. Berkhofer Jr. Lecture: An Evening With Mary Kathryn Nagle\n\"Native Theater in the 21st Century: Piercing the Invisibility and Restoring Our Humanity\"\n\nThis event is free and open to the public. There will be a catered reception to follow the lecture.\n\nMary Kathryn Nagle is an enrolled citizen of the Cherokee Nation. She currently serves as the Executive Director of the Yale Indigenous Performing Arts Program. She is also a partner at Pipestem Law\, P.C.\, where she works to protect tribal sovereignty and the inherent right of Indian Nations to protect their women and children from domestic violence and sexual assault. Nagle has authored numerous briefs in federal appellate courts\, including the United States Supreme Court. Nagle studied theater and social justice at Georgetown University as an undergraduate student\, and received her J.D. from Tulane Law School where she graduated summe cum laude and received the John Minor Wisdom Award. She is a frequent speaker at law schools and symposia across the country. Her articles have been published in law review journals including the Harvard Journal of Law and Gender\, Yale Law Journal (online forum)\, Tulsa Law Review\, and Tulane Law Review\, among others.\n\nNagle is an alumn of the 2012 PUBLIC THEATER Emerging Writers Group\, where she developed her play “Manahatta” in PUBLIC STUDIO (May 2014). Productions include “Miss Lead” (Amerinda\, 59E59\, January 2014)\, and “Fairly Traceable” (Native Voices at the Autry\, March 2017)\, “Sovereignty” (Arena Stage)\, “Manahatta” (Oregon Shakespeare Festival)\, and Return to Niobrara (Rose Theater). In 2019\, Portland Center Stage will produce the world premiere of “Crossing Mnisose.”\n\nNagle has received commissions from Arena Stage (“Sovereignty”)\, the Rose Theater (“Return to Niobrara\,” Omaha\, Nebraska)\, Portland Center Stage (“Mnisose”)\, Denver Center for the Performing Arts\, Yale Repertory Theatre (“A Pipe for February”)\, and Round House Theater. \n\nThe Berkhofer Lecture series (named for a former U-M professor and founder of the field of Native American studies) was established in 2014 by an alumni gift from the Dan and Carmen Brenner family of Seattle\, Washington. In close consultation with the Brenners\, Native American Studies decided to create a public lecture series featuring prominent\, marquee speakers who would draw audiences from different communities (faculty and students\, Ann Arbor and Detroit\, and Michigan tribal communities as well as writers and readers of all persuasions). Native American students at U-M have consistently expressed their desire to make Native Americans more visible both on campus and off\, and we believe that this lecture takes a meaningful step in that direction. Additionally\, because of the statewide publicity it generates\, we think it is already becoming another recruitment incentive for Native American students. It goes without saying that the speakers we are inviting provide tremendous value to the mission and work of Native American Studies at U-M.

SUMMARY:Performance:Flint
DESCRIPTION:A new play by José Casas\n\nDepartment of Theatre & Drama \n\nIn the style of The Laramie Project\, Flint explores the current state of the Michigan city’s water crisis through narratives based upon and inspired by the lives and stories of people affected by the tragedy. \n\nDepartment of Theatre & Drama faculty member and playwright José Casas defines himself as an issue-based playwright. Casas’s new drama creates a mosaic of a city struggling to survive and present itself to the world by exploring its hidden stories and history. Guest stage director Dexter Singleton\, now based on the East Coast\, grew up in Detroit and has relatives in Flint\, bringing a local touch to the production. With many of the issues remaining unresolved four years out\, Flint serves as a platform for dialogue regarding the future of the city and its resilient residents\, as well as for other communities facing similar problems.

DESCRIPTION:A multi-venue exhibition of site-specific installations\, performances\, interventions\, and events by University of Michigan faculty\, staff\, and students\, Bookmarks: Speculating the Futures of the Book and Library is curated by Guna Nadarajan\, dean of the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan\, in partnership with the University of Michigan Library. The exhibition will be located in several locations within Shapiro Undergraduate Library\, Hatcher Graduate Library\, and the Art\, Architecture & Engineering Library. \n\nThe continued proliferation of digital formats and systems for the embodiment\, distribution\, and delivery of knowledge increasingly displace the book as form. As a result\, the spacial limitations of libraries are challenged. The value of the book and the function of the library demand cultural attention. In this moment\, we ask ourselves: what is the future of the library? What is the future of the book? This exhibition seeks to instigate and showcase creative responses to the challenges to the book and the library in the forms we have inherited as well as to project ways of reimagining futures for/of books and libraries.\n\nBookmarks: Speculating the Futures of the Book and Library is supported by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, the University of Michigan Library\, the University of Michigan Office for Research (UMOR)\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n\n

DESCRIPTION:NUCLEAR IS ___________________________.#nuclearisThe word “nuclear” likely invokes a few specific mental images to the general public. Indeed\, prior to receiving a full undergraduate education\, even aspiring nuclear engineers may only be aware of a few applications and opportunities in the nuclear field. However\, the applications of and opportunities within nuclear science and technology go much further than power generation. For example\, the medical field has benefited greatly from advances in nuclear science and technology with nuclear-enabled tools for imaging\, cancer treatments\, and sterilization. Irradiating food offers protection from harmful microorganisms without compromising the quality of food. Nuclear science and technology provides tools to law enforcement and national security personnel to help identify threats and protect our communities. Of course\, nuclear power generation is a major focus in education\, research\, and industry\; and the successes and advances in this area are not to be overlooked.Professionals working in the nuclear industry often require skills and expertise beyond strictly nuclear science. Modeling and simulation analysts must learn and maintain computer coding skills. The nuclear power industry needs professionals that understand regulations in order to meet their strict requirements for safety. Additionally\, the nuclear power industry is looking to those with an entrepreneurial spirit to bring new technologies to fruition that promise increased performance at a lower cost. The finances of nuclear power plants are unique in the energy production sector and require those with economic expertise to plan for the continued\, financially successful operation of nuclear power plants.VCU has chosen to focus on the broad nature of nuclear science and technology with the theme “Nuclear is ________________.” Under this theme\, the conference will explore the many opportunities accustomed to students within the nuclear science and technology realm. The theme will also encompass the many supportive activities\, technologies\, and experts in varied fields of nuclear science and technology. Obvious examples of the application of the theme include: “Nuclear is thermal-hydraulics.” or “Nuclear is neutronics.” or “Nuclear is nonproliferation.” Other\, less obvious applications of the theme include: “Nuclear is cyber security.” or “Nuclear is health.” or “Nuclear is advocacy.” or “Nuclear is economics.”In addition\, this theme allows VCU to explore the subtle and ubiquitous impacts of nuclear science and technology. For example: “Nuclear is making toast.” One out of every five pieces of bread used in making toast is toasted using electricity generated from nuclear power plants. Another example would be “Nuclear is fresh herbs and spices.” Almost every jar of dried herbs or spices sold in the U.S. has been irradiated to preserve its flavor and maintain longer shelf-lives. Demonstrating the successful and safe day-to-day use of nuclear science and technology represents an important nuclear advocacy tool that we will highlight throughout the conference.Additionally\, the exciting new technologies that hold much promise for the nuclear industry will be represented by “Nuclear is entrepreneurship.” and “Nuclear is innovation.” Innovations in reactor designs\, medical applications\, and security tools will require those with the imagination and the business skills capable of launching new products and/or companies that fulfill the promise of an improved world. In contrast with the ubiquitous and mundane\, successes in innovation and entrepreneurship represent the exciting and inspiring aspects of nuclear science and technology that will energize those students in attendance.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of presents Art\, Music & Autism: Jazz Musicians in Mixed Media by Juliette Hemingway
DESCRIPTION:In Juliette Hemingway’s work\, viewers can imagine the grumbling tones of a saxophone or the sharp lines of a trombone. The sound is inside the musicians. You may not know the details of their experience or understand it\, but it's visceral. That is what jazz is in Hemingway's work. It is the instinctual part of her life that she gives to viewers as a visual excerpt: a life that revolves around healing\, autism\, creativity and awareness. Jazz and the blue-hued musicians give you a sense of the deep-rooted experiences of her son and what it is to live with autism\, and for her\, straining to look into his secret world. Hemingway is based in Aurora\, Colorado.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Saturday Morning Physics | On the Shore of the Cosmic Ocean
DESCRIPTION:The surface of the Earth is the shore of the cosmic ocean. On this shore\, we've learned most of what we know. Recently\, we've waded a little way out\, maybe ankle-deep\, and the water seems inviting.”  Carl Sagan visualized our perspective on Earth as looking out to a vast ocean\, and with an international fleet of space-based and ground observatories now and soon to come\, we are poised more than ever to jump into the larger universe.  The upcoming Solar Orbiter mission gives us a perfect example of how far we can go when we work together across traditional boundaries and realize that nothing in science is done in isolation.  Understanding our own star leads to an increased awareness and appreciation of the Earth’s place in our solar system\, as well as the Sun’s influence on planets near and far\, all the way out to the boundary of our solar system.  And our vision doesn’t stop there\; using our star as a template informs our view of other star systems and their worlds.  What we learn now\, sitting on that shore\, will enrich our journey out into the endless cosmic sea.

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:Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:EXPANDING OUR UNDERSTANDING OF A MUSEUM AS A CULTURAL REPOSITORY\n \nIn celebration of the University of Michigan’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and distinguished U­–M art professor Jim Cogswell was invited to create a series of public window installations in response to the holdings of the University of Michigan Museum of Art and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology. For this visionary project\, the artist adhered a procession of vivid images to the glass walls of the museums in a rhythmically evocative narrative\, based on reassembled fragments from a diverse range of artworks in both museums' permanent collections.  The juxtaposed images address our shared histories and experiences while connecting the viewer to the origins and meaning of objects and their power to shape knowledge\, memory\, and identity. By leveraging the buildings’ unique architecture\, the artist expands our understanding of a museum as a cultural repository and highlights the significant role of these institutions in the life of the campus community.  Cosmogonic Tattoos is on view at the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology through May 2\, 2018 and UMMA through June 2\, 2019.\n \n#CosmogonicTattoos\n\nLead support for Cosmogonic Tattoos is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost. Additional support for the artist's project is provided by the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.\n

DESCRIPTION:The Roman world was a colorful place. Although we often associate the Romans with white marble statues\, these statues — as well as Roman homes\, clothing\, and art — were vibrant with color. This exhibition examines colors in the ancient Roman world\, how these colors were produced\, where they were found\, what the Romans thought about them\, and how we study them today. We hope that visitors will think about what different colors mean to them\, and how these meanings compare to the roles of colors in the ancient Roman world.\n\nCurators: Catherine Person and Caroline Roberts\n\nView the online exhibition: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/ancient-color/

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Being Brown: South Asian Narratives of Brownness in Southeast Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Using an interdisciplinary lens\, the exhibit explores the heterogeneity in the contours of brown narratives among South Asians in the Midwest. Although there is an emerging interest in the social construction of brownness on its own terms\, most of such explorations are situated either in the East or West Coast. Rarely have the narratives of brownness in the Midwest been explored. The Midwest\, particularly Ann Arbor and the greater Detroit area\, has a sizable population of South Asians who work in a variety of blue collar to professional jobs that range from motel cleaners to doctors.\n\nThis exhibit was curated by Ram Mahalingam\, Osman Khan\, and Aswin Punathamebkar.

SUMMARY:Performance:Flint
DESCRIPTION:A new play by José Casas\n\nDepartment of Theatre & Drama \n\nIn the style of The Laramie Project\, Flint explores the current state of the Michigan city’s water crisis through narratives based upon and inspired by the lives and stories of people affected by the tragedy. \n\nDepartment of Theatre & Drama faculty member and playwright José Casas defines himself as an issue-based playwright. Casas’s new drama creates a mosaic of a city struggling to survive and present itself to the world by exploring its hidden stories and history. Guest stage director Dexter Singleton\, now based on the East Coast\, grew up in Detroit and has relatives in Flint\, bringing a local touch to the production. With many of the issues remaining unresolved four years out\, Flint serves as a platform for dialogue regarding the future of the city and its resilient residents\, as well as for other communities facing similar problems.

DESCRIPTION:An evening of interdisciplinary dance works choreographed by second-year MFA candidates Megan Bascom and Nicole Reehorst. Bascom's work interacts with imposed boundaries and perceptions of communication where trust is fleeting\, empathy is precious\, and recognizing community is vital. Reehorst’s work investigates female performance within the canon of classical ballet\, repositioning “her” as strategic and wild\, soft and resilient.\n\nThe Friday dance performance will be live streamed here: https://smtd.umich.edu/performances-events/live-stream-bettypease/

SUMMARY:Performance:Peter Mulvey
DESCRIPTION:To call Peter Mulvey an acoustic singer-songwriter and guitarist just doesn't cover it. He's equally—and tremendously on all counts—gifted as a singer\, writer\, and guitarist. Says the Irish Examiner: \"Peter Mulvey is one of the most accomplished guitarists you're ever likely to hear … utterly original … it is nigh on impossible to explain him to the uninitiated … his intelligent and sometimes complex songs engage both hemispheres of the listener's brain.\" Peter grew up in Milwaukee\, made his debut on the streets of Dublin\, and moved to Boston\, performing in subways and finally clubs. His latest album was produced by Ani DiFranco\, whom he befriended when she added a verse to his song \"Take Down Your Flag\,\" about the shootings at the AME Emanuel Church in Charleston\, South Carolina. \"I heard a young folksinger at a festival last summer sing a line about how our job is to sing the people through\, and I think that young man is right as rain\,\" Peter says. \"I’m doing my best.\" Peter returns from his MC slot at the 2019 Ann Arbor Folk Festival with a new album \"Fool's Errand\".

SUMMARY:Performance:Third Opera Production: Ullmann’s Der Kaiser von Atlantis
DESCRIPTION:Matthew Ozawa\, stage director\nTimothy Cheek\, music director\n\nPre-performance lecture “Behind the Scenes of Der Kaiser von Atlantis\,” with lecturers Jessica Grimmer and Patricia Hall on music in the Holocaust\, Tereízn\, and Viktor Ullmann at 7:00 PM in Glenn E. Watkins Lecture Hall.\n\nComposed by Viktor Ullmann around 1943\, while imprisoned in the WWII ghetto Terezín (Theresienstadt) in Czechoslovakia\, the opera Der Kaiser von Atlantis takes a satirical look at totalitarianism and systematic suppression. Banned by the Nazis\, Der Kaiser did not resurface for another 30 years\, following Ullmann’s violent death in Auschwitz. Examining what we learn from the past in order to resist future racist\, political\, or exclusionary ideologies\, this third opera brings together the collaborative ideas of seven graduate and doctoral voice students. Performed with chamber ensemble.

SUMMARY:Performance:UM RC Deutsches Theater presents Blaubart - Hoffnung der Frauen
DESCRIPTION:In this sometimes dark\, sometimes hilarious play by contemporary German playwright Dea Loher\, you’ll meet Heinrich Blaubart (Blaubart means Blue Beard)\, who bears some resemblance to Blue Beard from the French fairy tale by the same name\, who kills his wives when they disobey him and enter the forbidden chamber of his castle. Like the original Blue Beard\, Heinrich Blaubart brings death to women he meets. Unlike the original Blue Beard\, though\, he doesn’t seek to do so\; in fact\, his fear of relationships makes him try to avoid women. This\, of course\, makes him all the more attractive to the women he encounters. On a deeper level\, the play suggests that everyone is searching for something different and for some acceptance. Perhaps one should take heed\, though\, of Maeterlinck’s warning that: “There is a Blue Beard room in everyone’s soul that should never be opened.” \n\nPresented in German  by students enrolled in RCHums334: From the Page to the Stage. Surtitles will make it possible for even non-German speakers to follow the action on stage. Directed by Janet Hegman Shier.  \n\nSaturday\, April 6 at 8 PM and Sunday matinée\, April 7 at 2 PM in the Keene Theater (lower level of East Quad). \n\nWe recommend a donation of $5 or non-perishable food items though no one will be turned away at the door. Proceeds go to SAFE HOUSE and Food Gatherers.\n\nAbout RC Deutsches Theater: Since 1985\, the focus of this RC course offering is on acting and on reading plays by contemporary German-speaking authors. We supertitle our plays. Audiences will note the resemblance to the way theater is performed in much of Europe with minimal (or sometimes no) set.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Bookmarks: Speculating the Futures of the Book and Library
DESCRIPTION:A multi-venue exhibition of site-specific installations\, performances\, interventions\, and events by University of Michigan faculty\, staff\, and students\, Bookmarks: Speculating the Futures of the Book and Library is curated by Guna Nadarajan\, dean of the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan\, in partnership with the University of Michigan Library. The exhibition will be located in several locations within Shapiro Undergraduate Library\, Hatcher Graduate Library\, and the Art\, Architecture & Engineering Library. \n\nThe continued proliferation of digital formats and systems for the embodiment\, distribution\, and delivery of knowledge increasingly displace the book as form. As a result\, the spacial limitations of libraries are challenged. The value of the book and the function of the library demand cultural attention. In this moment\, we ask ourselves: what is the future of the library? What is the future of the book? This exhibition seeks to instigate and showcase creative responses to the challenges to the book and the library in the forms we have inherited as well as to project ways of reimagining futures for/of books and libraries.\n\nBookmarks: Speculating the Futures of the Book and Library is supported by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, the University of Michigan Library\, the University of Michigan Office for Research (UMOR)\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n\n
