SUMMARY:Exhibition:Circulating the Avant-Garde: Aesthetic Counter-Publics in the Little Magazines\, 1890-1920
DESCRIPTION:Thanks to advances in color lithography and photo-engraving as well as resurgent interest in small-press publishing\, richly illustrated and typeset “little magazines” flourished between 1890 and 1920. The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Hide & Seek: Fiber Wall Quilts
DESCRIPTION:Jeanne Bieri’s art practice begins with the simple act of hand sewing. This allows contemplation of the art making process and careful organization of the parts. As she assembles it piece by piece\, the work grows in a way that closely relates to painting. Bieri received a grant from the State of Michigan in 2000 to study quilts and their patterns. She discovered that they often touch people on a personal level and encourage memories. Whether an army blanket or quilt\, she delights to find a treasure that has a personal history that goes well beyond her and extends to the observer. Hide & Seek\, Bieri’s current series of art quilts incorporating fabrics with history\, encourages viewer interaction and reminiscence. She received a Kresge Fellowship for her fiber pieces in 2017.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Lobby\, Floor 1.                                                                       \n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Honor & Comfort: Handmade Paper & Mixed Media
DESCRIPTION:Each of Laurie LeBreton’s paper tapestries are a kind of meditation or prayer. Some works she created to reach out to a greater power\, while others honor a particular person or joyful time. Her sculptural paper tapestries can be installed in a number of different ways\, reflecting the impermanence of this world. LeBreton lives and works in Chicago and has been working with handmade paper for ten years. She enjoys its surprising properties: it is light and appears fragile\, yet it is also pliable\, absorbs color beautifully\, and is very strong. LeBreton particularly loves papermaking because of the calm that comes from the repeating forms in the process\, and she appreciates working with water for its beauty\, sensuality and healing qualities.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center North Lobby\, Floor 1. \n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents The Art of Leaves: Soft Pastel & Pencil
DESCRIPTION:Born in Houston\, Texas\, one of the most colorful cities in the U.S.\, J. Howard recognizes that color is important in the food we eat\, the clothes we wear\, our homes\, our cars\, and even our pets. She points out that “there is a great deal more to color than what meets the eye.” Howard utilizes hyper-realism and enhanced depth of field to create highly detailed soft pastel drawings on canvas that are often mistaken for photographs. She uses the beauty and intense color of organic soft pastels to elicit emotional responses from viewers\, recognizing and working with the inherent qualities of color.  Also a practicing art therapist\, Howard’s award-winning work has been recognized both nationally and internationally.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Corridor\, Floor 2.\n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Graffiti as Devotion along the Nile: El-Kurru\, Sudan
DESCRIPTION:Ancient graffiti provide a unique glimpse into the lives of individuals in antiquity. Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Applied Microeconomics/IO Seminar: Price discrimination against inattentive mortgage borrowers
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nThe extent of price dispersion in the US residential mortgage market cannot be fully explained by dispersion in conventionally measured creditworthiness. Using a merged survey and administrative dataset with data on consumer search intensity\, I show that consumer failure to recall the interest rate is associated with paying a much higher rate. I estimate a structural model of sequential search in which recall/non-recall of the interest rate forms a consumer type known to firms. Price discrimination explains 90 percent of the interest rate penalty paid by the inattentive consumer type\, with differences in consumer preferences and search behavior explaining the remainder.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Daughters of Memory: Paintings and Poems on the Nine Muses
DESCRIPTION:Daughters of Memory: Paintings and Poems on the Nine Muses is an interdisciplinary show of works by Cindy Sowers exploring the elusive sources for the ancient figures of the Muses\, as well as the appropriation of these figures by different artists through the ages.\n\nReception for the Artist: September 6\, approximately 4:30pm. Refreshments will be served. \n\nCindy Sowers received her B.A. from Oakland University\, her M.A. from University of Michigan in Comparative Literature\, and her Ph.D. also from the University of Michigan in Comparative Literature. During her Masters program in 1973\, she started teaching at the Residential College in the First Year Seminar and French programs. Her dissertation\, The Shared Structure of Craft and Song: A Study of Homer’s Narrative Art\, revealed passions for narrative and visual analysis comparatively understood that would characterize her teaching thereafter.  She participated in an interdisciplinary group composed of Residential College humanities and fine arts faculty who together constructed the Arts and Ideas in the Humanities concentration. Cindy's recent course offerings have included critical approaches to the literature and visual arts of classic modernism\, postmodernism\, Shakespeare and Rome\, the heritage of Greece\, the psychoanalytic interpretation of the arts\, and many others. She combines analyses of literary texts\, visual arts\, and philosophy to hone in on the animating spirit of a cultural moment and space.  She has presented at the Royal Shakespeare Company's 2006 U-M residency\, as part of the RC Faculty Colloquium\, for the LSA Comparative Literature and the Colloquium on Critical Theory sponsored by the LSA Department of English Language and Literature\, and at the Residential College's 50th Anniversary celebration. She has received the Ford Foundation Fellowship\, the Rackham Prize twice\, the U-M Excellence in Teaching Award\, the Matthews Underclass Teaching Award\, and is a member of the Medieval Academy of America. Cindy retires from her position as a Senior Lecturer and Lecturer IV\, having served in the Residential College for 46 years. She has an active art practice\, and her work will be displayed in the RC Art Gallery in a fall 2019 exhibition. She also maintains a personal website\, cynthiasowers.rc.lsa.umich.edu\, where she publishes essays\, poetry\, and visual artwork.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Seminar Series: Gongjun Xu\, Assistant Professor\, Department of Statistics\, University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Latent class models have wide applications in social and biological sciences. In many applications\, pre-specified restrictions are imposed on the parameter space of latent class models\, through a design matrix\, to reflect practitioners' diagnostic assumptions about how the observed responses depend on the respondents' latent traits. Though widely used in various fields\, such restricted latent class models suffer from nonidentifiability due to the models' discrete nature and complex restricted structure. This talk addresses the fundamental identifiability issue of restricted latent class models by developing a general framework for strict and partial identifiability of the model parameters. The developed identifiability conditions only depend on the design matrix and are easily checkable\, which provides useful practical guidelines for designing statistically valid diagnostic tests. Furthermore\, the new theoretical framework is applied to establish\, for the first time\, identifiability of several designs from cognitive diagnosis applications.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Strengths of Refugees and Their Community
DESCRIPTION:Refugees have been at the forefront of political discussion in the United States as the Syrian crisis escalates and xenophobia heightens. Much has been said regarding these refugees\, but all too often the voices of refugees themselves are left out of the conversation.\n\nThis exhibit uses the data collected from a Photovoice project\, combining photography and transcriptions from groups discussions with adolescent refugees to better understand the lived experiences of adolescent refugees. The gallery highlights five main themes that were discussed: Stability and Security\, Interpersonal Difficulties\, Rooting Factors\, Personal Growth\, and Contribution.\n\n“I wish I could help out people… Imma give them everything. Because they are my people\, I have to save my people.” -Alex

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Things I Like Most About the Clements Library
DESCRIPTION:The Clements Library is a treasure house of American history.  During a 23-year career with the Clements\, Brian Dunnigan has served as curator of maps\, head of research and publications\, associate director\, and acting director.  Daily contact with the collections has inspired reflections on some of the things that the Clements does very well\, driving his exhibit themes around active collecting\, conservation\, solving mysteries\, and more. \n\nDunnigan’s selections include poignant manuscripts\, striking visual imagery and cartography\, and some of his favorite materials from the collections\, drawing especially from his expertise in the mapping of the Great Lakes. This valedictory exhibit in the Clements’s soaring Avenir Foundation Reading Room dwells on seven areas of commitment and illustrates the concepts with some of the Library's most evocative and handsome holdings.

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:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics:
DESCRIPTION:In the midst of the political and cultural upheavals of the 60s and 70s\, artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ceal Floyer: Things
DESCRIPTION:Visitors entering Floyer’s installation Things (2009) in the Irving Stenn\, Jr. Family Gallery encounter a collection of identical plinths that would ordinarily be used to display art objects in the Museum\, but these platforms are empty. In place of visible objects\, each plinth is equipped with a speaker from which we hear the word “thing” sung—edited out of and isolated from a range of pop songs. The result is an amusing and thoughtful exploration of language\, meaning\, and the conventions of museum presentation and spectatorship.\n \nThe installation\, like much of Berlin-based artist Ceal Floyer’s art\, is characteristically austere\, but its visual simplicity masks a more complicated message—often a wry cerebral twist the artist creates through language-based symbols and aesthetic devices. Floyer’s work is rooted in conceptual art\, in which the idea\, delivered through words or acts that undercut or supersede formal qualities\, is the essence of the artwork.\n\nLead support  for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan College of Engineering and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design\, Institute for the Humanities\, CEW+ Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund\, and School of Music\, Theatre & Dance.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Copies and Invention in East Asia
DESCRIPTION:Far from being frowned upon as uncreative\, in China\, Korea\, and Japan\, copying has long been considered a valuable practice. Through works of art spanning ancient to contemporary times\, Copies and Invention in East Asia challenges our understanding of originality\, and presents copying as an act of imaginative interpretation. The exhibition includes burial goods that conjure a world for the deceased\; Buddhist sculptures produced in multiples to amplify religious experience and meaning\; paintings in which a master’s brushstrokes are faithfully duplicated as a way of shaping the self\; and contemporary works that address multiplicity and duplication in the modern world.\n\nLead support is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies\, Center for Japanese Studies\, Nam Center for Korean Studies\, School of Information\, and College of Engineering. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Fabrication Studio at the Duderstadt Center\, the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures\, and SeeMeCNC 3D Printers.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Egon Schiele
DESCRIPTION:Egon Schiele (1890-1918)\, one of the most well-known and controversial figures of Austrian Expressionism\, made more than 3\,000 works over the span of his short life and career. Working at the turn of the twentieth century\, Schiele challenged the classical conventions of the day producing emotionally charged—often unsettling—drawings and watercolors depicting landscapes\, portraits\, and nudes. Two retired U-M professors recently gifted four works of art by Schiele to UMMA. Throughout their lifetimes\, Frances McSparran (English language and literature) and the late Ernst Pulgram (Romance and classical linguistics) collected over forty Austrian and German Expressionist works\, donating many of them to the Museum. The three watercolors and one drawing on view in this special installation complement the couple’s previous gifts of works by Schiele and his contemporaries Oskar Kokoschka\, George Grosz\, and Gustav Klimt\, reuniting these important works that together provide important insights into this tumultuous period in European history.        \n\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AE Dissertation Defense: \"Development and Application of a Comprehensive Simulation for Modeling Helicopter Ship Landing\"
DESCRIPTION:A comprehensive simulation framework for modeling helicopter ship landing was developed. The framework includes high-fidelity models for: 1) vehicle flight dynamics\, 2) Wind Over Deck (WOD)\, 3) ground effect\, 4) ship deck motion\, and 5) a robust flight control system.\n\nApproach simulations were performed to assess the influence of WOD and ground effect on the UH-60A helicopter response. The WOD velocities were obtained from Detached Eddy Simulation of flow over a SFS2 ship. A gain scheduled LQR controller was used to track the approach trajectory. The WOD resulted in high frequency oscillations in the CG position coordinates and attitude angles. Oblique WOD conditions required greater control effort than the headwind case. Ground effect\, modeled using a simple scaling factor\, caused an 11.3% decrease in rotor power consumption.\n\nA finite-state ground effect model was subsequently implemented to study the influence of inclined and moving decks. Hover and landing simulations were performed with a deck inclined at constant roll and pitch angles\, and a deck undergoing isolated sinusoidal motion. Static deck roll produced an increase in the lateral inflow coefficient and the longitudinal cyclic input to the main rotor. Power requirements were significantly affected by heaving deck motion\, highlighting the importance of modeling dynamic ground effect.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:When Debate\, Discourse\, and Exchange Go Bad: Bullying and Mobbing in the Academic Workplace
DESCRIPTION:Bullying is “rife” on campus. Academe is a “culture of cruelty”. Academics are “mean and nasty”. Really??? In this presentation\, we will test the veracity of these characterizations through an examination of the global research literature on bullying and mobbing in the academic workplace. Specifically\, we will explore the unique features of 1) academe (academic freedom\, shared governance) and the nature of the university as a “workplace” and 2) faculty as “ workers” as well as 3) the broader social\, political and economic context for how they shape the prevalence\, nature\, dynamics\, impact of\, and response to bullying and mobbing. Key insights include the status-based nature of bullying\, our colleagues\, the public\, and the state as powerful actors\, and the critical influence of culturally shaped behavioral norms in defining what is and is not bullying\, who should be involved in assessing and addressing bullying\, and some practical strategies for amelioration.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: “Water” In and On the Surface of Terrestrial Planetary Bodies\, by Any Means
DESCRIPTION:Searching for life in the solar system has been a continuing quest for planetary scientists.  Water is the elixir of life\, as we know\, and as such\, the central theme of space missions chasing after water in the solar system (e.g.\, Mars\, Europa\, Titan). \n\nOur home planet is unique in the inner solar system for the presence of liquid surface water.  It is only ~30 years ago that the Earth’s mantle was discovered to contain one ocean-worth water stored as OH in nominally anhydrous minerals (e.g.\, olivine\, pyroxene).   Despite these small relative abundances\, water in the Earth’s mantle plays dramatic roles in many geological processes\, from forming surface water through volcanic degassing to causing chemical and physical changes in the mantle.   The search of water IN and ON the terrestrial bodies represents the logical extension of our knowledge of water on Earth.  \n\nRecently\, our Moon has become the focus of such searches for water.  The remote-sensed data has showed there is wide-spread “water” on the Moon (e.g.\, Pieters et al.\, 2009\; Colaprete et al.\, 2011).  However\, it does not provide unambiguous ground-truth of water IN lunar soils.  Toward this aspect\, my colleagues and I have examined several Apollo lunar soils.  Our results provide evidence for the first identification of OH in lunar soils that were derived from both solar-wind and non-solar-wind sources (Liu et al.\, 2012a)\, versus H in lunar volcanic glass.  Proving solar-wind-formed water on the Moon is important in searching for water on other airless bodies in the solar system.  The on-going missions to Mercury and 4 Vesta have actually observed minor amounts of water on these airless bodies\, but are they similar to that on the Moon? \n\nMars\, on the other hand\, is the only other planet with clear signs of past/present liquid water.  As such\, “follow the water” has been the central focus of NASA’s martian exploration program.  However\, questions remain on when\, where\, and how water comes and goes on Mars.  We recently recognized that impact melt pockets in martian meteorites record signatures of subsurface water\, and thus provide an unique if not only tool to examine subsurface water reservoirs on Mars (Chen et al.\, 2015\; Liu et al.\, 2018). \n\nHere\, I present results from my research on lunar and martian samples\, and discuss future directions toward searching for water on the inner solar system bodies.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Circulating the Avant-Garde: Aesthetic Counter-Publics in the Little Magazines\, 1890-1920
DESCRIPTION:Thanks to advances in color lithography and photo-engraving as well as resurgent interest in small-press publishing\, richly illustrated and typeset “little magazines” flourished between 1890 and 1920. The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Strengths of Refugees and Their Community
DESCRIPTION:Refugees have been at the forefront of political discussion in the United States as the Syrian crisis escalates and xenophobia heightens. Much has been said regarding these refugees\, but all too often the voices of refugees themselves are left out of the conversation.\n\nThis exhibit uses the data collected from a Photovoice project\, combining photography and transcriptions from groups discussions with adolescent refugees to better understand the lived experiences of adolescent refugees. The gallery highlights five main themes that were discussed: Stability and Security\, Interpersonal Difficulties\, Rooting Factors\, Personal Growth\, and Contribution.\n\n“I wish I could help out people… Imma give them everything. Because they are my people\, I have to save my people.” -Alex

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

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics:
DESCRIPTION:In the midst of the political and cultural upheavals of the 60s and 70s\, artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ceal Floyer: Things
DESCRIPTION:Visitors entering Floyer’s installation Things (2009) in the Irving Stenn\, Jr. Family Gallery encounter a collection of identical plinths that would ordinarily be used to display art objects in the Museum\, but these platforms are empty. In place of visible objects\, each plinth is equipped with a speaker from which we hear the word “thing” sung—edited out of and isolated from a range of pop songs. The result is an amusing and thoughtful exploration of language\, meaning\, and the conventions of museum presentation and spectatorship.\n \nThe installation\, like much of Berlin-based artist Ceal Floyer’s art\, is characteristically austere\, but its visual simplicity masks a more complicated message—often a wry cerebral twist the artist creates through language-based symbols and aesthetic devices. Floyer’s work is rooted in conceptual art\, in which the idea\, delivered through words or acts that undercut or supersede formal qualities\, is the essence of the artwork.\n\nLead support  for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan College of Engineering and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design\, Institute for the Humanities\, CEW+ Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund\, and School of Music\, Theatre & Dance.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Copies and Invention in East Asia
DESCRIPTION:Far from being frowned upon as uncreative\, in China\, Korea\, and Japan\, copying has long been considered a valuable practice. Through works of art spanning ancient to contemporary times\, Copies and Invention in East Asia challenges our understanding of originality\, and presents copying as an act of imaginative interpretation. The exhibition includes burial goods that conjure a world for the deceased\; Buddhist sculptures produced in multiples to amplify religious experience and meaning\; paintings in which a master’s brushstrokes are faithfully duplicated as a way of shaping the self\; and contemporary works that address multiplicity and duplication in the modern world.\n\nLead support is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies\, Center for Japanese Studies\, Nam Center for Korean Studies\, School of Information\, and College of Engineering. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Fabrication Studio at the Duderstadt Center\, the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures\, and SeeMeCNC 3D Printers.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Egon Schiele
DESCRIPTION:Egon Schiele (1890-1918)\, one of the most well-known and controversial figures of Austrian Expressionism\, made more than 3\,000 works over the span of his short life and career. Working at the turn of the twentieth century\, Schiele challenged the classical conventions of the day producing emotionally charged—often unsettling—drawings and watercolors depicting landscapes\, portraits\, and nudes. Two retired U-M professors recently gifted four works of art by Schiele to UMMA. Throughout their lifetimes\, Frances McSparran (English language and literature) and the late Ernst Pulgram (Romance and classical linguistics) collected over forty Austrian and German Expressionist works\, donating many of them to the Museum. The three watercolors and one drawing on view in this special installation complement the couple’s previous gifts of works by Schiele and his contemporaries Oskar Kokoschka\, George Grosz\, and Gustav Klimt\, reuniting these important works that together provide important insights into this tumultuous period in European history.        \n\n

SUMMARY:Presentation:Science Forum Demo: Counting Cells
DESCRIPTION:Join us in the Science Forum for 15-20 minute engaging science demonstrations that will help you see the world around you in a whole new way. Demonstrations are appropriate for visitors ages 5 and above. \n\nThe human body is made of more than 37 trillion cells. Most of them need to be replaced every couple of months\, weeks\, or sometimes in the course of only a few days. Our cells grow and divide constantly to get this massive job done. But how do cells replicate themselves? How do things move in\, out\, and around the cell\, and into new cells? Join us as we explore how our bodies carry out this massive process. We will learn about cell structure and division and observe cells up-close and in action! \nFunded by the National Science Foundation.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Graffiti as Devotion along the Nile: El-Kurru\, Sudan
DESCRIPTION:Ancient graffiti provide a unique glimpse into the lives of individuals in antiquity. Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Circulating the Avant-Garde: Aesthetic Counter-Publics in the Little Magazines\, 1890-1920
DESCRIPTION:Thanks to advances in color lithography and photo-engraving as well as resurgent interest in small-press publishing\, richly illustrated and typeset “little magazines” flourished between 1890 and 1920. The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Strengths of Refugees and Their Community
DESCRIPTION:Refugees have been at the forefront of political discussion in the United States as the Syrian crisis escalates and xenophobia heightens. Much has been said regarding these refugees\, but all too often the voices of refugees themselves are left out of the conversation.\n\nThis exhibit uses the data collected from a Photovoice project\, combining photography and transcriptions from groups discussions with adolescent refugees to better understand the lived experiences of adolescent refugees. The gallery highlights five main themes that were discussed: Stability and Security\, Interpersonal Difficulties\, Rooting Factors\, Personal Growth\, and Contribution.\n\n“I wish I could help out people… Imma give them everything.

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

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics:
DESCRIPTION:In the midst of the political and cultural upheavals of the 60s and 70s\, artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ceal Floyer: Things
DESCRIPTION:Visitors entering Floyer’s installation Things (2009) in the Irving Stenn\, Jr. Family Gallery encounter a collection of identical plinths that would ordinarily be used to display art objects in the Museum\, but these platforms are empty. In place of visible objects\, each plinth is equipped with a speaker from which we hear the word “thing” sung—edited out of and isolated from a range of pop songs. The result is an amusing and thoughtful exploration of language\, meaning\, and the conventions of museum presentation and spectatorship.\n \nThe installation\, like much of Berlin-based artist Ceal Floyer’s art\, is characteristically austere\, but its visual simplicity masks a more complicated message—often a wry cerebral twist the artist creates through language-based symbols and aesthetic devices. Floyer’s work is rooted in conceptual art\, in which the idea\, delivered through words or acts that undercut or supersede formal qualities\, is the essence of the artwork.\n\nLead support  for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan College of Engineering and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design\, Institute for the Humanities\, CEW+ Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund\, and School of Music\, Theatre & Dance.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Egon Schiele
DESCRIPTION:Egon Schiele (1890-1918)\, one of the most well-known and controversial figures of Austrian Expressionism\, made more than 3\,000 works over the span of his short life and career. Working at the turn of the twentieth century\, Schiele challenged the classical conventions of the day producing emotionally charged—often unsettling—drawings and watercolors depicting landscapes\, portraits\, and nudes. Two retired U-M professors recently gifted four works of art by Schiele to UMMA. Throughout their lifetimes\, Frances McSparran (English language and literature) and the late Ernst Pulgram (Romance and classical linguistics) collected over forty Austrian and German Expressionist works\, donating many of them to the Museum. The three watercolors and one drawing on view in this special installation complement the couple’s previous gifts of works by Schiele and his contemporaries Oskar Kokoschka\, George Grosz\, and Gustav Klimt\, reuniting these important works that together provide important insights into this tumultuous period in European history.        \n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Graffiti as Devotion along the Nile: El-Kurru\, Sudan
DESCRIPTION:Ancient graffiti provide a unique glimpse into the lives of individuals in antiquity. Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/

SUMMARY:Presentation:Boltanski\, Monument to the Lycée Chases
DESCRIPTION:Christian Boltanski was born in Paris in the wake of its liberation from Fascist control. Perhaps as a result of his childhood experiences\, he has explored themes of memory\, death\, and mourning in a variety of media—film\, paint\, photography\, and found objects. His evocative\, often ephemeral installations archive and memorialize anonymous individual loss. Monument to the Lycée Chases is part of a series of works Boltanski began in 1987\, inspired by a found photograph of the 1931 graduating class from a private Jewish high school in Vienna\, Austria. His re-photographed images are mere silhouettes or intimations of corporal presences that together comprise a moving meditation on loss and endurance.  \n\n

SUMMARY:Performance:Sonny Landreth
DESCRIPTION:After a dozen acclaimed albums\, virtuoso slide guitarist and bandleader Sonny Landreth found himself at an artistic crossroads. He wanted to finally create the full-length acoustic collection his fans had long requested. But he was also itching to capture the sound of his stalwart electric trio augmented by a couple of his favorite collaborators. And the time was certainly right for an elastic\, career-spanning double-live album. So Sonny and his longtime friends decided to do it all. \"Recorded Live in Lafayette\" is a 16-song opus that covers more musical ground than any single album ever could\, as the singer and songwriter’s work stretches and twists across 93 minutes of full-band acoustic and electric bottleneck lightning. You can get a taste of the magic without going to Lafayette right here at The Ark—Sonny Landreth is one of the great live guitarists of our time!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Circulating the Avant-Garde: Aesthetic Counter-Publics in the Little Magazines\, 1890-1920
DESCRIPTION:Thanks to advances in color lithography and photo-engraving as well as resurgent interest in small-press publishing\, richly illustrated and typeset “little magazines” flourished between 1890 and 1920. The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Daughters of Memory: Paintings and Poems on the Nine Muses
DESCRIPTION:Daughters of Memory: Paintings and Poems on the Nine Muses is an interdisciplinary show of works by Cindy Sowers exploring the elusive sources for the ancient figures of the Muses\, as well as the appropriation of these figures by different artists through the ages.\n\nReception for the Artist: September 6\, approximately 4:30pm. Refreshments will be served. \n\nCindy Sowers received her B.A. from Oakland University\, her M.A. from University of Michigan in Comparative Literature\, and her Ph.D. also from the University of Michigan in Comparative Literature. During her Masters program in 1973\, she started teaching at the Residential College in the First Year Seminar and French programs.

DESCRIPTION:Refugees have been at the forefront of political discussion in the United States as the Syrian crisis escalates and xenophobia heightens. Much has been said regarding these refugees\, but all too often the voices of refugees themselves are left out of the conversation.\n\nThis exhibit uses the data collected from a Photovoice project\, combining photography and transcriptions from groups discussions with adolescent refugees to better understand the lived experiences of adolescent refugees. The gallery highlights five main themes that were discussed: Stability and Security\, Interpersonal Difficulties\, Rooting Factors\, Personal Growth\, and Contribution.\n\n“I wish I could help out people… Imma give them everything.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral & Experimental Economics (SBEE): Rules\, Discretion\, and Corruption in Procurement: Evidence from Italian Government Contracting
DESCRIPTION:The benefits of bureaucratic discretion depend on whether it is used to improve public welfare or exploited for private gain. We study the relationship between discretion and corruption in Italian government procurement auctions\, using a confidential database of firms and procurement officials investigated for corruption by Italian enforcement authorities. We show that discretionary procedure auctions (those awarded on the basis of negotiated rather than open bidding) are associated with corruption only when conducted with fewer than the formally required number of bidders\; we similarly find that discretionary criteria (``scoring rule'' rather than first price) auctions are won more often by firms investigated for corruption. We show that these ``corruptible'' discretionary auctions are chosen more often by officials who are themselves investigated for corruption\, but less often in investigated procurement administrations (those in which enforcement authorities are investigating at least one procurement official). These findings fit with a model in which more discretion leads to greater efficiency as well as more opportunities for theft\, and a central monitor manages this tradeoff by limiting discretion in high-corruption locales. Finally\, we present two additional sets of analyses which suggest that monitors also use two standard tools -- turnover and subcontracting limits -- to further constrain auction officials in high corruption areas.\n\nFrancesco Decarolis\, Raymond Fisman\, Paolo Pinotti\, and Silvia Vannutelli

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Quantitative Biology Seminar | Timeseries Analysis of Stochastic Systems with Hidden Components
DESCRIPTION:Despite dramatic advances in experimental techniques\, many facets of intracellular dynamics remain hidden\, or can be measured only indirectly. In this talk\, I will describe two strategies to analyze stochastic timeseries data from biological systems with hidden parts: replacement of multi-step process with a time delay distribution or quasi-steady-state. Then\, I will illustrate how these strategies are applied to understand the processes of protein synthesis\, which involves multiple steps such as transcription\, translation\, folding and maturation\, but typically whose intermediates proteins cannot be measured. Furthermore\, drugs are also cleared out from our body in multiple steps of metabolism. To estimate the rate of drug clearance\, which is a critical factor determining the dose level\, a canonical approach has been used in more than 65\,000 published papers for last 30 years. I will point out the critical limitation of the canonical approach and propose an alternative approach\, which leads to accurate and precise estimation of drug clearance rate.  \n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Franz Kafka in Central European Cultures of Memory
DESCRIPTION:The presentation reconstructs the main strains of the reception of Franz Kafka within the historiography of literature in Central Europe and traces them to Central European cultures of memory. The lecture deals both with forgetting and functionalizing Franz Kafka in the memory of literature\, as it occurred in Czech and German historiography of literature\, as well as the obscuring and the focusing on details concerning his biography\, networks\, readings and text production during their way from the “storage” to the “functional memory”\, as practiced within the paradigm of national historiography of literature. The lecture also focuses particularly on the invention of Franz Kafka as a “Czech” and/or Central European author in the Czechoslovakia of the 1960s and the transnational reinvention of Franz Kafka within the Central European context after 1989.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Public Finance: Corporate taxation and the distribution of income
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nCorporate taxation affects the distribution of income both by changing relative returns to capital and labor and by reducing the share of corporate activity in the economy.  Corporate investments are safer and have more diversified ownership than noncorporate alternatives\, so a reduction in corporate activity contributes to income dispersion and thereby increases income inequality.  This effect is so large that higher corporate taxes can be associated with greater income inequality even when the corporate tax burden falls entirely on capital owned disproportionately by the rich.  Risk considerations alone imply that a ten percent higher U.S. corporate tax rate increases the concentration of top U.S. incomes by 1.3-2.9 percent\, which may more than offset the distributional effect of reducing average returns to capital.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:RNA innovation Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: RNA regulation permeates neurobiology. Nociceptors are sensory neurons tasked with the detection of pain producing stimuli. Persistent changes in their activity\, termed plasticity\, benefit survival through injury avoidance. Nociceptors rely on cap-dependent translation to rapidly increase protein synthesis in response to pro-inflammatory signals. Comparatively little is known regarding the role of the regulatory factors bound to the 3' end of mRNA in nociceptor sensitization. Poly(A)-binding protein (PABP) stimulates translation initiation by bridging the Poly(A) tail to the eukaryotic initiation factor 4F complex associated with the mRNA cap. We have developed an RNA-based competitive inhibitor of PABP that attenuates behavioral responses to pain in mice. To identify the Poly(A) mRNAs subject to privileged translation in response to noxious cues\, we have applied ribosome profiling to primary sensory neurons and tissues. A small number of transcripts are selectively translated in response to plasticity mediators. Among them is the capsid forming protein Arc. Arc has been implicated in synaptic plasticity and learning in the brain. We demonstrate that the ribosomal S6 kinase 1 is responsible for Arc production in nociceptors and describe a new role for local translation of Arc in afferent fibers. Collectively\, our findings uncover mechanisms and targets of RNA control in sensory neurons that can be exploited to disrupt pain signaling.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IOE 813 Seminar: Amy Kilbourne\, PhD\, MPH
DESCRIPTION:Health systems strive to deliver high-quality\, patient-centered care by ensuring that evidence-based\, cost-efficient\, and acceptable treatment innovations get off the research-academic shelf and into the hands of patients and their providers. However\, tracking of this “research-to-practice” translation has found that it can take 17 years for treatment innovations to reach frontline care settings. Moreover\, only 1 in 5 of these treatments are ultimately sustained in real-world practice. This research-to-practice gap wastes millions of dollars that are invested in research on treatment discoveries that do not make it into the hands of patients who can ultimately benefit from them. Key barriers to implementing treatment innovations into routine practice include lack of planning to prepare frontline clinicians in their adoption\, lack of opportunities to adapt innovations across diverse patient populations\, and limited incentives for health care organizations to sustain innovations once the research study ends. This talk will describe novel research approaches to help close the gap between innovation and implementation\, notably the new VA Quality Enhancement Research Initiative (QUERI) Implementation Roadmap and accompanying Implementation Strategy Training Hubs. We also describe novel designs such as sequential multiple assignment randomized trial (SMART) and adaptive designs\, that can help determine which implementation strategies are most effective in overcoming provider and organizational barriers to treatment adoption\, and how these designs and implementation strategies can be applied to settings outside the clinic walls such as schools. We also describe the challenges in conducting these studies to determine the best implementation strategies and the active ingredients for such studies to ultimately inform health systems in the successful spread of innovations to ultimately improve patient outcomes.\n \nDr. Amy M. Kilbourne\, PhD\, MPH is Director of the VA Quality Enhancement Research Initiative (QUERI) and Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Michigan (UM) Medical School. With over 40 centers across the U.S.\, the mission of QUERI is to improve Veteran health by accelerating the implementation of research findings into real-world practice. Dr. Kilbourne’s goal is to improve Veteran health through implementation science\, i.e.\, the use of strategies to help providers scale up and spread effective practices in real-world treatment settings. She has led several national improvement initiatives including a VA national population management program to provide outreach services for Veterans with serious mental illness (Re-Engage) and a community care implementation research roadmap. Dr. Kilbourne is the recipient of several awards including the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE) and the Gerald L. Klerman Research Award from the Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance (DBSA). Dr. Kilbourne received her bachelors of arts at the University of California at Berkeley (double major in molecular biology and rhetoric)\, and her masters in epidemiology and PhD in health policy from the University of California Los Angeles.\n\nThis is the first of our weekly seminars this semester.

SUMMARY:Auditions:Audition for The Yeomen of the Guard
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan Gilbert & Sullivan Society (UMGASS) is holding auditions for The Yeomen of the Guard\, or the Merryman and His Maid on Monday\, September 9th\, Tuesday\, September 10th\, and Wednesday\, September 11th at the Student Theater Arts Complex (STAC)\, 1201 Kipke Drive in Ann Arbor (directly east of the U-M football stadium) from 7:00 – 10:00 pm. All roles are available for SATB principals and chorus\; cast will be selected from the audition pool with no pre-casting. All are welcome to audition\, including students\, faculty / staff\, and general community members of Ann Arbor / Southeast Michigan area. To sign up for an audition time you may either attend the UMGASS Mass Meeting at 7:00 pm on Sunday\, September 8th at the Michigan League\, or e-mail umgassexec@umich.edu to have a member of the board sign you up by proxy. Walk-ins are also welcome\; please arrive before 9:00 pm if you plan to walk-in. Callbacks (if necessary) will be held on the evening of Thursday\, September 12th.\n\nPlease prepare ~32-64 bars of a selection from musical theater\, comic opera\, or opera (in English)\, and provide a legible copy for the accompanist. Be prepared to read selections from the libretto if you are interested in a speaking role. There will be no dance audition for this production. Rehearsals will average two days per week between Sunday afternoon and Thursday evening for both chorus and principals. Production dates are December 5 – 8\, 2019\, at the Lydia Mendelssohn Theater in the Michigan League\, with full staging and full orchestra.\n\nThe University of Michigan Gilbert & Sullivan Society (UMGASS) was founded in 1947 and is the oldest student-run society nationwide dedicated to performing the operettas of Sir William Gilbert and Sir Arthur Sullivan. Each year we bring together students and community members for two fully staged productions of Gilbert & Sullivan operettas\, which are performed with orchestra at the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre in downtown Ann Arbor. The quality of our productions sets a high standard for community G&S companies\, and our performances\, particularly of the lesser-known works of the canon\, are benchmarks for similar organizations around the country and the world. \n​\nWe’re proud to be a great place for future performing arts professionals as well as a creative outlet for students\, professors\, and community members of all ages looking to blow off steam and have a good time participating in a great show!\n\nThe Yeomen of the Guard was the 11th collaboration between librettist W.S. Gilbert and composer Arthur Sullivan. The story takes place at the Tower of London\, where the heroic Colonel Fairfax is scheduled to be executed the following morning on questionable grounds. The Colonel’s heirs will be disinherited if he dies unmarried\, and so he finds a short-term bride in the strolling player\, Elsie Maynard – much to the chagrin of her infatuated traveling partner\, the jester Jack Point. Meanwhile\, the Colonel’s friends and admirers work for his release – or for his escape\, if necessary.

SUMMARY:Auditions:Gilbert and Sullivan's Yeomen of the Guard Auditions
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan Gilbert & Sullivan Society (UMGASS) is holding auditions for The Yeomen of the Guard\, or the Merryman and His Maid on Monday\, September 9th\, Tuesday\, September 10th\, and Wednesday\, September 11th at the Student Theater Arts Complex (STAC)\, 1201 Kipke Drive in Ann Arbor (directly east of the U-M football stadium) from 7:00 – 10:00 pm. All roles are available for SATB principals and chorus\; cast will be selected from the audition pool with no pre-casting. All are welcome to audition\, including students\, faculty / staff\, and general community members of the Ann Arbor / Southeast Michigan area. To sign up for an audition time you may either attend the UMGASS Mass Meeting at 7:00 pm on Sunday\, September 8th at the Michigan League\, or e-mail umgassexec@umich.edu to have a member of the board sign you up by proxy. Walk-ins are also welcome\; please arrive before 9:00 pm if you plan to walk-in. Callbacks (if necessary) will be held on the evening of Thursday\, September 12th.\n \nPlease prepare ~32-64 bars of a selection from musical theater\, comic opera\, or opera (in English)\, and provide a legible copy for the accompanist. Be prepared to read selections from the libretto if you are interested in a speaking role. There will be no dance audition for this production. Rehearsals will average two days per week between Sunday afternoon and Thursday evening for both chorus and principals. Production dates are December 5 – 8\, 2019\, at the Lydia Mendelssohn Theater in the Michigan League\, with full staging and full orchestra.\n\nThe University of Michigan Gilbert & Sullivan Society (UMGASS) was founded in 1947 and is the oldest student-run society nationwide dedicated to performing the operettas of Sir William Gilbert and Sir Arthur Sullivan. Each year we bring together students and community members for two fully staged productions of Gilbert & Sullivan operettas\, which are performed with orchestra at the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre in downtown Ann Arbor. The quality of our productions sets a high standard for community G&S companies\, and our performances\, particularly of the lesser-known works of the canon\, are benchmarks for similar organizations around the country and the world. \n​\nWe’re proud to be a great place for future performing arts professionals as well as a creative outlet for students\, professors\, and community members of all ages looking to blow off steam and have a good time participating in a great show!\n\n\nThe Yeomen of the Guard was the 11th collaboration between librettist W.S. Gilbert and composer Arthur Sullivan. The story takes place at the Tower of London\, where the heroic Colonel Fairfax is scheduled to be executed the following morning on questionable grounds. The Colonel’s heirs will be disinherited if he dies unmarried\, and so he finds a short-term bride in the strolling player\, Elsie Maynard – much to the chagrin of her infatuated traveling partner\, the jester Jack Point. Meanwhile\, the Colonel’s friends and admirers work for his release – or for his escape\, if necessary. Will the Colonel\, his impetuous marriage\, and the broken-hearted jester all survive until the final curtain? This time there will be no last-minute topsy-turvy revelation to prevent the story’s dramatic conclusion.\n\nYeomen of the Guard will be directed by David Andrews\, who most recently directed UMGASS’s 2018 production of The Grand Duke\, and who will be directing with UMGASS for the eighth time\, among his 22 semesters with the group.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Circulating the Avant-Garde: Aesthetic Counter-Publics in the Little Magazines\, 1890-1920
DESCRIPTION:Thanks to advances in color lithography and photo-engraving as well as resurgent interest in small-press publishing\, richly illustrated and typeset “little magazines” flourished between 1890 and 1920. The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Graffiti as Devotion along the Nile: El-Kurru\, Sudan
DESCRIPTION:Ancient graffiti provide a unique glimpse into the lives of individuals in antiquity. Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Daughters of Memory: Paintings and Poems on the Nine Muses
DESCRIPTION:Daughters of Memory: Paintings and Poems on the Nine Muses is an interdisciplinary show of works by Cindy Sowers exploring the elusive sources for the ancient figures of the Muses\, as well as the appropriation of these figures by different artists through the ages.\n\nReception for the Artist: September 6\, approximately 4:30pm. Refreshments will be served. \n\nCindy Sowers received her B.A. from Oakland University\, her M.A. from University of Michigan in Comparative Literature\, and her Ph.D. also from the University of Michigan in Comparative Literature. During her Masters program in 1973\, she started teaching at the Residential College in the First Year Seminar and French programs. Her dissertation\, The Shared Structure of Craft and Song: A Study of Homer’s Narrative Art\, revealed passions for narrative and visual analysis comparatively understood that would characterize her teaching thereafter.  She participated in an interdisciplinary group composed of Residential College humanities and fine arts faculty who together constructed the Arts and Ideas in the Humanities concentration. Cindy's recent course offerings have included critical approaches to the literature and visual arts of classic modernism\, postmodernism\, Shakespeare and Rome\, the heritage of Greece\, the psychoanalytic interpretation of the arts\, and many others. She combines analyses of literary texts\, visual arts\, and philosophy to hone in on the animating spirit of a cultural moment and space.  She has presented at the Royal Shakespeare Company's 2006 U-M residency\, as part of the RC Faculty Colloquium\, for the LSA Comparative Literature and the Colloquium on Critical Theory sponsored by the LSA Department of English Language and Literature\, and at the Residential College's 50th Anniversary celebration. She has received the Ford Foundation Fellowship\, the Rackham Prize twice\, the U-M Excellence in Teaching Award\, the Matthews Underclass Teaching Award\, and is a member of the Medieval Academy of America. Cindy retires from her position as a Senior Lecturer and Lecturer IV\, having served in the Residential College for 46 years. She has an active art practice\, and her work will be displayed in the RC Art Gallery in a fall 2019 exhibition. She also maintains a personal website\, cynthiasowers.rc.lsa.umich.edu\, where she publishes essays\, poetry\, and visual artwork.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Strengths of Refugees and Their Community
DESCRIPTION:Refugees have been at the forefront of political discussion in the United States as the Syrian crisis escalates and xenophobia heightens. Much has been said regarding these refugees\, but all too often the voices of refugees themselves are left out of the conversation.\n\nThis exhibit uses the data collected from a Photovoice project\, combining photography and transcriptions from groups discussions with adolescent refugees to better understand the lived experiences of adolescent refugees. The gallery highlights five main themes that were discussed: Stability and Security\, Interpersonal Difficulties\, Rooting Factors\, Personal Growth\, and Contribution.\n\n“I wish I could help out people… Imma give them everything.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Impact of Religion on Politics in the Middle East
DESCRIPTION:Saeed A. Khan is a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Near East and Asian Studies at Wayne State University. He teaches Islamic and Middle East history\, politics and culture\, and is a Fellow at the Center for the Study of Citizenship. He is also Adjunct Professor in Islamic Studies at the University of Detroit-Mercy and at Rochester College\, co-teaching a course on Muslim-Christian Diversity.\n\nReligion in politics is the most crucial issue facing Middle East countries. The region faces challenges for the application of modernity in terms of secularism\, especially in a locale where democracy and individualism have had generally little latitude as a whole. This is due partly from its history\, and where many use religion to justify their authoritarian political systems. Could technological advances have an impact and at what pace? This presentation for those 50 and over will explore the always-changing landscape of the Middle East as a religion\, politics and technology compete\, clash and coexist.\n \nThis is the first in OLLI’S distinguished lecture series for 2019-20. A total of ten lectures are presented covering a variety of topics. Lectures are held on Tuesday mornings once each month.

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.

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\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support of this exhibition:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics:
DESCRIPTION:In the midst of the political and cultural upheavals of the 60s and 70s\, artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ceal Floyer: Things
DESCRIPTION:Visitors entering Floyer’s installation Things (2009) in the Irving Stenn\, Jr. Family Gallery encounter a collection of identical plinths that would ordinarily be used to display art objects in the Museum\, but these platforms are empty. In place of visible objects\, each plinth is equipped with a speaker from which we hear the word “thing” sung—edited out of and isolated from a range of pop songs. The result is an amusing and thoughtful exploration of language\, meaning\, and the conventions of museum presentation and spectatorship.\n \nThe installation\, like much of Berlin-based artist Ceal Floyer’s art\, is characteristically austere\, but its visual simplicity masks a more complicated message—often a wry cerebral twist the artist creates through language-based symbols and aesthetic devices. Floyer’s work is rooted in conceptual art\, in which the idea\, delivered through words or acts that undercut or supersede formal qualities\, is the essence of the artwork.\n\nLead support  for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan College of Engineering and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design\, Institute for the Humanities\, CEW+ Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund\, and School of Music\, Theatre & Dance.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Egon Schiele
DESCRIPTION:Egon Schiele (1890-1918)\, one of the most well-known and controversial figures of Austrian Expressionism\, made more than 3\,000 works over the span of his short life and career. Working at the turn of the twentieth century\, Schiele challenged the classical conventions of the day producing emotionally charged—often unsettling—drawings and watercolors depicting landscapes\, portraits\, and nudes. Two retired U-M professors recently gifted four works of art by Schiele to UMMA. Throughout their lifetimes\, Frances McSparran (English language and literature) and the late Ernst Pulgram (Romance and classical linguistics) collected over forty Austrian and German Expressionist works\, donating many of them to the Museum. The three watercolors and one drawing on view in this special installation complement the couple’s previous gifts of works by Schiele and his contemporaries Oskar Kokoschka\, George Grosz\, and Gustav Klimt\, reuniting these important works that together provide important insights into this tumultuous period in European history.        \n\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Environmental Research Seminar \"Health & Household-Related Benefits of Weatherizing Low-Income Homes & Affordable Multifamily Buildings\"
DESCRIPTION:The federal government\, states\, and utilities administer programs to improve the energy efficiency of low-income homes and affordable multifamily buildings. Investments in measures to save energy\, as simple as air sealing and insulation\, can also yield a broad range of non-energy benefits. This presentation will present research results that show that weatherization can improve health\, home conditions\, and social determinants of health. The results are drawn from three separate studies that were conducted nationally\, regionally (Midwest and Northeast)\, and in Knoxville\, Tennessee. Three3\, Inc. conducts research and educational programming to promote the integration of environmental\, social\, and economic sustainability. The organization particularly focuses on fostering sustainable futures that: provide equitable benefits to low-income and disadvantaged populations (intra-generational equity)\; meets ethical obligations to future generations (inter-generational equity)\; and makes best use of the convergence of human knowledge and technology to meet sustainability goals.

SUMMARY:Other:From fluctuations to function: The role of dynamics in the mechanism and regulation of translation
DESCRIPTION:                                                Over the past two decades\, stunning breakthroughs in the field of structural biology have continued to produce groundbreaking high-resolution structures of large\, multi-component biomolecular machines. Comparative analyses of these static structures reveals the remarkable conformational flexibility of these machines and hints at the significant structural rearrangements that evidently accompany their functional cycles. Unfortunately\, the experimental observation and characterization of these conformational dynamics is severely impeded by the size and complexity of biomolecular machines\, severely limiting our understanding of the contributions that dynamics make to their functions. Using a combination of single-molecule biophysical-\, structural-\, and biochemical approaches\, my research group aims to overcome these challenges and elucidate the precise roles that the conformational dynamics of biomolecular machines play in driving and controlling their functions. My seminar presentation will primarily focus on our studies of the mechanism and regulation of messenger RNA translation into protein by the ribosome\, an essential step in gene expression. Specifically\, I will discuss how thermally driven fluctuations of the ribosome and other essential translation components contribute to the mechanism and regulation of translation. Because the ribosome is the target of over half of all currently prescribed antibiotics and because of the growing list of human diseases to which deregulation of translation has been causally linked\, our findings hold great promise for informing the development of next-generation antibiotics and small-molecule therapeutic agents that function by modulating the conformational dynamics of the translation machinery. Building on what we have learned from these studies\, I will close my presentation by describing recent technological advances that are allowing us to investigate biomolecular dynamics which play important roles in biological mechanisms\, but that have thus far remained difficult or impossible to investigate.                        \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nRuben Gonzalez (Columbia University)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Mechanical Engineering Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:The first seminar in the Mechanical Engineering Seminar Series of the fall 2019 semester. \n\nTuesday\, September 10th\n4pm\n2147 GG Brown\n\nChallenges in Prosthetic Limbs: Design\, Control\, Use\, and Utility \nPresented by: Assistant Professor Peter G. Adamczyk of the University of Wisconsin-Madison\n\nAbstract\nArtificial limbs offer an opportunity to improve movement through biomimetic devices. One approach is to directly replace joint function\, but achieving humanlike performance is challenging for design\, control\, cost and longevity of the systems. An alternative approach is to exploit biomechanical workarounds for lost function rather than directly replacing it. This presentation will describe several such “semi-active” prostheses – low-power systems that modulate their mechanical properties but cannot power body movement – that aim to add adaptability and versatility with minimal addition of weight\, height\, complexity\, power demand and cost. \nAnother challenge in rehabilitation and assistive technology is determining which among several interventions is most beneficial to everyday movement. “Real-world” assessment using wearable sensors is a popular approach\, but current analysis techniques struggle to reduce days-long data sets to generalizable knowledge. The second part of this presentation will describe this challenge and a novel approach to data reduction aimed at enabling lab-like scientific findings from long-term wearable data sets\, with upcoming application to prosthetic ankle-foot systems.\n\nBio\nDr. Peter Adamczyk earned degrees in Mechanical Engineering from Case Western Reserve University (B.S.) and the University of Michigan (M.S. and Ph.D) in the areas of Robotics and Biomechanics. He spent several years running a startup company dedicated to advancing the science and technology of lower-limb prosthetics and real-world motion assessment. He is now an Assistant Professor at the University of Wisconsin–Madison where he directs the Biomechatronics\, Assistive Devices\, Gait Engineering and Rehabilitation Laboratory (UW BADGER Lab\, http://uwbadgerlab.engr.wisc.edu). \n\nDr. Adamczyk’s research aims to enhance physical and functional recovery from impairments affecting walking\, running\, and standing. Core foci include the design of semi-active foot prostheses for gait restoration after amputation\; wearable sensors for movement assessment during real-life activities\; and rehabilitation robotics to explore motor learning and neural adaptation.

SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:Under Cover: An Evening with Intriguing Bindings and Enclosures Primary tabs
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an open house exploring interesting bindings and enclosures on a selection of manuscripts\, printed books\, and artists’ books in terms of what they disguise and what they reveal. Our first introduction to a book often comes via its cover or enclosure. While many covers plainly identify and entice us to peruse their contents\, others obscure what they protect and may even leave us wondering if what we’re looking at is in fact a book. Other covers are so captivating as to overshadow what they enclose\, leaving us reluctant to venture past them for a look inside. Ultimately many covers and enclosures reveal a great deal more about their creators\, owners and admirers than about the texts and images within.\n\nThis event is part of Special Collections After Hours\, a monthly open house series sharing highlights from the many books\, documents\, and artifacts in our collections. Each event is open to everyone and will offer a new group of themed materials for visitors to explore. Open houses are held on the second Tuesday of each month during the academic year. Light refreshments will be provided.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:WCED Lecture. The Politics of the Middle-Income Trap
DESCRIPTION:Beginning in the mid-2000s\, economists in both academia and development multilaterals have drawn increasing attention to countries\, especially in Southeast Asia and Latin America\, being stuck in middle-income. Political leaders in those regions have also expressed concerns about this “Middle-Income Trap.” But while economists point to policies required to move into higher income\, they have generally ignored the political and institutional aspects of the trap. Two factors merit special attention: “disarticulation politics\,” involving social cleavages that impede the creation of coalitions necessary to create effective institutions\; and unstable\, fragmented party systems that undermine the long time horizons necessary for institutional development and policy implementation. Doner will explore these issues through cross-national and cross-sectoral variation in specific issue areas and institutions. \n    \nRichard F. Doner is Goodrich C. White Professor Emeritus in the Department of Political Science at Emory University in Atlanta\, Georgia. He received his Ph.D. in political science from the University of California\, Berkeley. Dr. Doner's research focuses on the political and institutional bases of economic development\, especially in Southeast Asia. His books include \"The Politics of Uneven Development: Thailand’s Economic Growth in Comparative Perspective\" (2009)\; \"From Silicon Valley to Singapore: Location and Competitive Advantage in the Hard Disk Drive Industry\" (with David McKendrick and Stephan Haggard\, 2000)\; and \"Driving a Bargain: Japanese Firms and Automobile Industrialization in Southeast Asia\" (1991). His co-edited volumes include \"Explaining Institutional Innovation: Case Studies from Latin America and East Asia\" (2010)\, and \"Economic Governance and The Challenge of Flexibility in East Asia\" (with Fred Deyo and Eric Hershberg\, 2001). His articles have appeared in journals such as \"International Organization\,\" \"World Politics\,\" \"Journal of Development Studies\,\" \"Journal of Contemporary Asia\,\" \"Journal of Asian Studies\,\" \"Science\, Technology and Society\,\" \"Journal of East Asian Studies\,\" \"Review of Policy Research\,\" and \"World Development.\" Dr. Doner has written or consulted for the World Bank\, the International Labor Organization\, the Inter-American Development Bank\, and business associations in Southeast Asia. He was a Peace Corps Volunteer in Northeast Thailand and an assembly line worker at General Motors in California. \n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to weisercenter@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Wallace House Presents McKenzie Funk on Climate Change
DESCRIPTION:The 34th Graham Hovey Lecture\n\n“Seeing Green: The Business and Inequity of Climate Change” with McKenzie Funk\n\nWhile the issue of climate change rises in importance to the U.S. electorate\, players in energy\, banking and business are cashing in on the environmental crisis. McKenzie Funk\, 2012 Knight-Wallace Fellow\, is the author of “Windfall: The Booming Business of Global Warming.” Join him for a critical discussion of drought\, rising seas\, profiteering\, and the hardest truth about climate change: It’s not equally bad for everyone.\n\nFunk writes for Harper’s\, National Geographic\, Rolling Stone\, Outside\, The New York Times Magazine and the London Review of Books. His 2014 book “Windfall” won a PEN Literary Award and was named a book of the year by The New Yorker\, Mother Jones\, Salon and Amazon.com. A National Magazine Award and Livingston Award finalist\, Funk won the Oakes Prize for Environmental Journalism for his reporting on the melting Arctic and has received fellowships at the Open Society Foundations and MacDowell Colony for his forthcoming work on data and privacy.\n\nFunk studied philosophy and comparative literature at Swarthmore College and capitalism and the paradigm of endless growth as a 2012 Knight-Wallace Journalism Fellow at the University of Michigan. He speaks five languages and is a native of the Pacific Northwest\, where he lives with his wife and sons.\n\nThe annual Graham Hovey Lecture recognizes a Knight-Wallace journalist whose career exemplifies the benefits of a fellowship at the University of Michigan and whose ensuing work is at the forefront of national conversation. The event is named for the late Graham Hovey\, director of the fellowship program from 1980 to 1986 and a distinguished journalist for The New York Times.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CWPS Faculty Lecture | Malcolm Tulip
DESCRIPTION:This talk follows the journey\, geographic\, intellectual\, and imaginative\, Malcolm Tulip made to \"discover\" a script for a theatrical performance. Inspired by the writings and drawings of German Surrealist Unica Zürn (1916-70) he explores the connections of the present and the concrete\, with the past\, the imagination and the unconscious to create a surrealist co-biography. In New York galleries and on the streets of Paris Tulip sought context for the works of Unica Zürn and connections between Zürn's life and his own.\n\nThe Center for World Performance Studies Faculty Lecture Series features our Faculty Fellows and visiting scholars and practitioners in the fields of ethnography and performance. Designed to create an informal and intimate setting for intellectual exchange among students\, scholars\, and the community\, faculty are invited to present their work in an interactive and performative fashion.

SUMMARY:Auditions:Audition for The Yeomen of the Guard
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan Gilbert & Sullivan Society (UMGASS) is holding auditions for The Yeomen of the Guard\, or the Merryman and His Maid on Monday\, September 9th\, Tuesday\, September 10th\, and Wednesday\, September 11th at the Student Theater Arts Complex (STAC)\, 1201 Kipke Drive in Ann Arbor (directly east of the U-M football stadium) from 7:00 – 10:00 pm. All roles are available for SATB principals and chorus\; cast will be selected from the audition pool with no pre-casting. All are welcome to audition\, including students\, faculty / staff\, and general community members of Ann Arbor / Southeast Michigan area. To sign up for an audition time you may either attend the UMGASS Mass Meeting at 7:00 pm on Sunday\, September 8th at the Michigan League\, or e-mail umgassexec@umich.edu to have a member of the board sign you up by proxy. Walk-ins are also welcome\; please arrive before 9:00 pm if you plan to walk-in. Callbacks (if necessary) will be held on the evening of Thursday\, September 12th.\n\nPlease prepare ~32-64 bars of a selection from musical theater\, comic opera\, or opera (in English)\, and provide a legible copy for the accompanist. Be prepared to read selections from the libretto if you are interested in a speaking role. There will be no dance audition for this production. Rehearsals will average two days per week between Sunday afternoon and Thursday evening for both chorus and principals. Production dates are December 5 – 8\, 2019\, at the Lydia Mendelssohn Theater in the Michigan League\, with full staging and full orchestra.\n\nThe University of Michigan Gilbert & Sullivan Society (UMGASS) was founded in 1947 and is the oldest student-run society nationwide dedicated to performing the operettas of Sir William Gilbert and Sir Arthur Sullivan. Each year we bring together students and community members for two fully staged productions of Gilbert & Sullivan operettas\, which are performed with orchestra at the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre in downtown Ann Arbor. The quality of our productions sets a high standard for community G&S companies\, and our performances\, particularly of the lesser-known works of the canon\, are benchmarks for similar organizations around the country and the world. \n​\nWe’re proud to be a great place for future performing arts professionals as well as a creative outlet for students\, professors\, and community members of all ages looking to blow off steam and have a good time participating in a great show!\n\nThe Yeomen of the Guard was the 11th collaboration between librettist W.S. Gilbert and composer Arthur Sullivan. The story takes place at the Tower of London\, where the heroic Colonel Fairfax is scheduled to be executed the following morning on questionable grounds. The Colonel’s heirs will be disinherited if he dies unmarried\, and so he finds a short-term bride in the strolling player\, Elsie Maynard – much to the chagrin of her infatuated traveling partner\, the jester Jack Point. Meanwhile\, the Colonel’s friends and admirers work for his release – or for his escape\, if necessary. Will the Colonel\, his impetuous marriage\, and the broken-hearted jester all survive until the final curtain? This time there will be no last-minute topsy-turvy revelation to prevent the story’s dramatic conclusion.\n\nYeomen of the Guard will be directed by David Andrews\, who most recently directed UMGASS’s 2018 production of The Grand Duke\, and who will be directing with UMGASS for the eighth time\, among his 22 semesters with the group.

SUMMARY:Auditions:Gilbert and Sullivan's Yeomen of the Guard Auditions
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan Gilbert & Sullivan Society (UMGASS) is holding auditions for The Yeomen of the Guard\, or the Merryman and His Maid on Monday\, September 9th\, Tuesday\, September 10th\, and Wednesday\, September 11th at the Student Theater Arts Complex (STAC)\, 1201 Kipke Drive in Ann Arbor (directly east of the U-M football stadium) from 7:00 – 10:00 pm. All roles are available for SATB principals and chorus\; cast will be selected from the audition pool with no pre-casting. All are welcome to audition\, including students\, faculty / staff\, and general community members of the Ann Arbor / Southeast Michigan area. To sign up for an audition time you may either attend the UMGASS Mass Meeting at 7:00 pm on Sunday\, September 8th at the Michigan League\, or e-mail umgassexec@umich.edu to have a member of the board sign you up by proxy. Walk-ins are also welcome\; please arrive before 9:00 pm if you plan to walk-in. Callbacks (if necessary) will be held on the evening of Thursday\, September 12th.\n \nPlease prepare ~32-64 bars of a selection from musical theater\, comic opera\, or opera (in English)\, and provide a legible copy for the accompanist. Be prepared to read selections from the libretto if you are interested in a speaking role. There will be no dance audition for this production. Rehearsals will average two days per week between Sunday afternoon and Thursday evening for both chorus and principals. Production dates are December 5 – 8\, 2019\, at the Lydia Mendelssohn Theater in the Michigan League\, with full staging and full orchestra.\n\nThe University of Michigan Gilbert & Sullivan Society (UMGASS) was founded in 1947 and is the oldest student-run society nationwide dedicated to performing the operettas of Sir William Gilbert and Sir Arthur Sullivan. Each year we bring together students and community members for two fully staged productions of Gilbert & Sullivan operettas\, which are performed with orchestra at the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre in downtown Ann Arbor. The quality of our productions sets a high standard for community G&S companies\, and our performances\, particularly of the lesser-known works of the canon\, are benchmarks for similar organizations around the country and the world. \n​\nWe’re proud to be a great place for future performing arts professionals as well as a creative outlet for students\, professors\, and community members of all ages looking to blow off steam and have a good time participating in a great show!\n\n\nThe Yeomen of the Guard was the 11th collaboration between librettist W.S. Gilbert and composer Arthur Sullivan. The story takes place at the Tower of London\, where the heroic Colonel Fairfax is scheduled to be executed the following morning on questionable grounds. The Colonel’s heirs will be disinherited if he dies unmarried\, and so he finds a short-term bride in the strolling player\, Elsie Maynard – much to the chagrin of her infatuated traveling partner\, the jester Jack Point. Meanwhile\, the Colonel’s friends and admirers work for his release – or for his escape\, if necessary. Will the Colonel\, his impetuous marriage\, and the broken-hearted jester all survive until the final curtain? This time there will be no last-minute topsy-turvy revelation to prevent the story’s dramatic conclusion.\n\nYeomen of the Guard will be directed by David Andrews\, who most recently directed UMGASS’s 2018 production of The Grand Duke\, and who will be directing with UMGASS for the eighth time\, among his 22 semesters with the group. Music Director for this production will be Ezra Donner\, a U-M alumnus with a Doctor of Music degree from Indiana University\, who conducted previous UMGASS productions of The Mikado\, Patience\, HMS Pinafore\, and The Pirates of Penzance between 2015 and 2017. The Choreographer will be UMGASS veteran Beth Ballbach\, who choreographed recent UMGASS productions of Princess Ida\, Iolanthe\, The Grand Duke\, and The Gondoliers\, among many others.\n\nFor additional information on Yeomen\, including audio files of the music\, check out the Gilbert & Sullivan Archive at https://gsarchive.net/yeomen/html/index.html.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Circulating the Avant-Garde: Aesthetic Counter-Publics in the Little Magazines\, 1890-1920
DESCRIPTION:Thanks to advances in color lithography and photo-engraving as well as resurgent interest in small-press publishing\, richly illustrated and typeset “little magazines” flourished between 1890 and 1920. The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Graffiti as Devotion along the Nile: El-Kurru\, Sudan
DESCRIPTION:Ancient graffiti provide a unique glimpse into the lives of individuals in antiquity. Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Ph.D. Defense: Zachariah Sperry
DESCRIPTION:Department of Biomedical Engineering Final Oral Examination\n\nZachariah Sperry\n\nNeural Interfacing with Dorsal Root Ganglia: Anatomical Characterization and Electrophysiological Recordings with Novel Electrode Arrays\n\nDorsal root ganglia (DRG)\, the hubs of neurons conducting sensory information into the spinal cord\, are promising targets for clinical and investigative neural interface technologies. DRG stimulation is currently a tertiary therapy for chronic pain patients\, which has an estimated prevalence of  up to 40% of adults in the United States. In pre-clinical studies\, combined neural recording and stimulation at DRG has been used as part of novel closed-loop systems to drive activity of the limbs or the urinary system. This suggests a potential role for clinical DRG interfaces to assist\, among other patient groups\, the nearly 300\,000 spinal cord injured patients in the United States.\n\nTo maximize the utility of DRG interfaces\, however\, there remains a strong need to improve our understanding of DRG structure. Neural interface technologies for both stimulation and recording rely heavily on the spatial organization of their neural targets. To record high-fidelity neural signals\, a microelectrode must be placed within about 200 µm of a neural cell body. Likewise\, effective neural stimulation is believed to act on a subset of DRG axons based on their size and location. The spatial organization of DRG\, however\, has not been previously quantified. In this thesis\, I demonstrate a novel algorithm to transform histological cross-sections of DRG to a normalized circular region for quantifying trends across many samples. Using this algorithm on 26 lumbosacral DRG from felines\, a common preclinical DRG model\, I found that the highest density of neural cell bodies was in the outer 24% radially\, primarily at the dorsal aspect. I extended this analysis to a semi-automated cross-DRG analysis in 33 lower lumbar DRG from 10 human donors. I found that the organization of human DRG was similar to felines\, with the highest density of cell bodies found in the outer 20-25% of the DRG\, depending on spinal level. I also found a trend toward lower small-axon density at the dorsal aspect of L5 DRG\, a key region for stimulation applications.\n\nTo take advantage of this quantitative knowledge of DRG organization\, future neural interfaces with DRG will require more advanced technologies. Standard silicon-based electrode arrays\, while useful for short-term DRG recordings\, ultimately fail in chronic use after several weeks as a result of mechanical mismatch with neural tissue. In this thesis\, I demonstrate sensory recording from the surface and interior of sacral DRG during acute surgeries using a variety of flexible polyimide microelectrode arrays 4 μm thick with minimum site separation of 25 to 40 μm. Using these arrays\, I recorded from bladder and somatic afferents with high fidelity. The high density of sites allowed for neural source localization from surface recordings to depths 25 to 107 µm. This finding supports the anatomical analysis suggesting a high density of cell bodies in the dorsal surface region where the surface array was applied. The high site density also allowed for the use of advanced signal processing to decrease analysis time and track neural sources during movement of the array which may occur during long-term behavioral experiments.\n\nThis thesis represents significant advances in our understanding of DRG and how to interface with them\, particularly related to the ways anatomy can inform development of future technologies. Going forward\, it will be important to expand the anatomical maps based on organ function and to test the novel flexible arrays in chronic implant experiments.\n\nDate:  Wednesday\, September 11\, 2019\nTime:  9:00 AM\nLocation:  NCRC Building 32 Auditorium\nChair:  Dr. Tim Bruns

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Daughters of Memory: Paintings and Poems on the Nine Muses
DESCRIPTION:Daughters of Memory: Paintings and Poems on the Nine Muses is an interdisciplinary show of works by Cindy Sowers exploring the elusive sources for the ancient figures of the Muses\, as well as the appropriation of these figures by different artists through the ages.\n\nReception for the Artist: September 6\, approximately 4:30pm. Refreshments will be served. \n\nCindy Sowers received her B.A. from Oakland University\, her M.A. from University of Michigan in Comparative Literature\, and her Ph.D. also from the University of Michigan in Comparative Literature. During her Masters program in 1973\, she started teaching at the Residential College in the First Year Seminar and French programs. Her dissertation\, The Shared Structure of Craft and Song: A Study of Homer’s Narrative Art\, revealed passions for narrative and visual analysis comparatively understood that would characterize her teaching thereafter.  She participated in an interdisciplinary group composed of Residential College humanities and fine arts faculty who together constructed the Arts and Ideas in the Humanities concentration. Cindy's recent course offerings have included critical approaches to the literature and visual arts of classic modernism\, postmodernism\, Shakespeare and Rome\, the heritage of Greece\, the psychoanalytic interpretation of the arts\, and many others. She combines analyses of literary texts\, visual arts\, and philosophy to hone in on the animating spirit of a cultural moment and space.  She has presented at the Royal Shakespeare Company's 2006 U-M residency\, as part of the RC Faculty Colloquium\, for the LSA Comparative Literature and the Colloquium on Critical Theory sponsored by the LSA Department of English Language and Literature\, and at the Residential College's 50th Anniversary celebration. She has received the Ford Foundation Fellowship\, the Rackham Prize twice\, the U-M Excellence in Teaching Award\, the Matthews Underclass Teaching Award\, and is a member of the Medieval Academy of America. Cindy retires from her position as a Senior Lecturer and Lecturer IV\, having served in the Residential College for 46 years. She has an active art practice\, and her work will be displayed in the RC Art Gallery in a fall 2019 exhibition. She also maintains a personal website\, cynthiasowers.rc.lsa.umich.edu\, where she publishes essays\, poetry\, and visual artwork.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Strengths of Refugees and Their Community
DESCRIPTION:Refugees have been at the forefront of political discussion in the United States as the Syrian crisis escalates and xenophobia heightens. Much has been said regarding these refugees\, but all too often the voices of refugees themselves are left out of the conversation.\n\nThis exhibit uses the data collected from a Photovoice project\, combining photography and transcriptions from groups discussions with adolescent refugees to better understand the lived experiences of adolescent refugees. The gallery highlights five main themes that were discussed: Stability and Security\, Interpersonal Difficulties\, Rooting Factors\, Personal Growth\, and Contribution.\n\n“I wish I could help out people… Imma give them everything. Because they are my people\, I have to save my people.” -Alex

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

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics:
DESCRIPTION:In the midst of the political and cultural upheavals of the 60s and 70s\, artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ceal Floyer: Things
DESCRIPTION:Visitors entering Floyer’s installation Things (2009) in the Irving Stenn\, Jr. Family Gallery encounter a collection of identical plinths that would ordinarily be used to display art objects in the Museum\, but these platforms are empty. In place of visible objects\, each plinth is equipped with a speaker from which we hear the word “thing” sung—edited out of and isolated from a range of pop songs. The result is an amusing and thoughtful exploration of language\, meaning\, and the conventions of museum presentation and spectatorship.\n \nThe installation\, like much of Berlin-based artist Ceal Floyer’s art\, is characteristically austere\, but its visual simplicity masks a more complicated message—often a wry cerebral twist the artist creates through language-based symbols and aesthetic devices. Floyer’s work is rooted in conceptual art\, in which the idea\, delivered through words or acts that undercut or supersede formal qualities\, is the essence of the artwork.\n\nLead support  for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan College of Engineering and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design\, Institute for the Humanities\, CEW+ Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund\, and School of Music\, Theatre & Dance.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Egon Schiele
DESCRIPTION:Egon Schiele (1890-1918)\, one of the most well-known and controversial figures of Austrian Expressionism\, made more than 3\,000 works over the span of his short life and career. Working at the turn of the twentieth century\, Schiele challenged the classical conventions of the day producing emotionally charged—often unsettling—drawings and watercolors depicting landscapes\, portraits\, and nudes. Two retired U-M professors recently gifted four works of art by Schiele to UMMA. Throughout their lifetimes\, Frances McSparran (English language and literature) and the late Ernst Pulgram (Romance and classical linguistics) collected over forty Austrian and German Expressionist works\, donating many of them to the Museum. The three watercolors and one drawing on view in this special installation complement the couple’s previous gifts of works by Schiele and his contemporaries Oskar Kokoschka\, George Grosz\, and Gustav Klimt\, reuniting these important works that together provide important insights into this tumultuous period in European history.        \n\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CREES Noon Lecture. Nature\, Consumption\, and Waste in the Cold War and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:The goal of this lecture is to reevaluate state socialism’s environmental record from a transnational rather than a comparative perspective. Zsuzsa Gille will argue that state socialist modernity had its own view of nature and materials\, as well as a largely misunderstood ethical stance to consumption that is ignored in today’s studies of Capitalocene examining the interrelations of capitalism and climate crisis. The presentation will provide an overview of the environmental advantages and disadvantages of central planning with an eye to demonstrating how Cold War-era trans-bloc relations and a unique socialist economic logic mutually constituted each other. In discussing the post-1989 developments\, she will demonstrate a missed opportunity for a greener postsocialism. Instead of returning to the rightfully criticized Anthropocene term\, Gille will argue for a more central role for waste and materiality in our understanding of the current dilemmas around global environmental problems. \n    \nZsuzsa Gille is professor of sociology and director of global studies at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. She is author of \"Paprika\, Foie Gras\, and Red Mud: The Politics of Materiality in the European Union\" (Indiana University Press\, 2016)\; \"From the Cult of Waste to the Trash Heap of History: The Politics of Waste in Socialist and Postsocialist Hungary\;\" co-editor of \"Post-Communist Nostalgia\" with Maria Todorova (Berghahn Press\, 2010)\; co-editor of the forthcoming book \"The Socialist Good Life: Desire\, Development\, and Standards of Living in Eastern Europe\;\" and co-author of \"Global Ethnography: Forces\, Connections and Imaginations in a Postmodern World\" (University of California Press\, 2000). \n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to weisercenter@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:HET Brown Bag | Light thermal relic Dark Matter
DESCRIPTION:The leading candidate for dark matter that is thermally produced in the early Universe is the Weakly Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP). However\, increasingly stringent bounds on WIMPs are now motivating the exploration of viable alternatives. One interesting possibility are DM candidates with sub-GeV masses. In this talk\, I will present two such examples. First\, I will focus on models where the dark matter abundance is set by mutual annihilations among multiple species. I will show how sizable mass splittings between the dark matter states naturally point to masses exponentially lighter than the weak scale. Light dark matter from coannihilation evades stringent bounds from the cosmic microwave background\, but will be tested by future direct detection\, fixed target\, and long-lived particle experiments. Second\, I will illustrate another viable thermal dark matter candidate with sub-GeV masses which has been overlooked in the literature: a cosmologically stable dark Higgs.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:PhD Defense: Kenneth Engeling
DESCRIPTION:Title: Micro-Plasma in Porous Media and Dielectric Barrier Discharges with Advanced Agricultural Applications\n\nChair: Prof. John Foster\n\nAbstract: A range of chemical processing applications feature the passage of process gas through porous media. Such media such as foams with interconnected pores or packed beds of aggregate media are desirable for chemical reactions since the reaction surface area to volume ratio is typically quite high. Applications of such reactors include the removal of volatile organic compounds from flues\, plasma treatment of aggregate organic media such as seeds\, and low temperature\, efficient combustion. Conventional applications featuring packed bed media contain catalytic particles often at high temperature. The chemical reactivity of such porous media can be greatly enhanced non-thermally through the production of plasma in the pores. The plasma electrons drive non- equilibrium chemical reactions allowing for a high degree of reaction selectivity. Such plasmas are also the source of reactive radicals. The production and subsequent propagation of plasma within the pores of such media is not well understood. The goal of this thesis work is to understand the plasma production process in porous media and the subsequent propagation of the plasma through such media. This work also involves understanding the induced chemical reactivity induced by the propagating plasma. The ultimate goal is to obtain insight into how the plasma imparts reactivity to the flow through gas and how these effects can be controlled. This insight will serve as the basis for optimization of existing packed media plasma reactors and the development of new\, novel sources for a range of applications including chemical processing. An application area of plasma packed bed reactors is also explored—the treatment of seeds. Here the propagation of plasma through packed beds of seeds and the subsequent germination and growth is studied. Such treatments have the potential to revolutionize agriculture by improving yields\, increasing crop growing seasons and enhancing seed vigor. Such work supports food security particularly in light of pressures from overpopulation and climate change.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:DCMB Seminar - Neurons in pathology through the lens of multi-omics and data analytics
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  \n\nAdvances in stem cell engineering\, omics technologies and data sciences offer a unique scope for deciphering the myriad ways molecular circuits dysfunction in pathologies of the brain. Recently\, we have developed and explored iPSC-derived neurons from familial Alzheimer’s disease patients using a systems-level\, multi-omics approach\, identifying disease-related endotypes\, which are commonly dysregulated in patient-derived neurons and patient brain tissue alike. By integrating RNA-Seq\, ATAC-Seq\, and ChIP-Seq approaches\, we determined that the defining disease-causing mechanism of AD is de-differentiation of neurons\, driven primarily through the REST-mediated repression of neuronal lineage specification gene programs and the activation of cell cycle reentry and non-specific germ layer precursor gene programs concomitant with modifications in chromatin accessibility. Strikingly\, our reanalysis of previously-generated AD-patient brain tissue showed similar enrichment of neuronal repression and de-differentiation mechanisms. Surprisingly\, our earlier work on glioblastoma also showed de-differentiation and initiation of some of the shared diseased endotypes as common features. We postulate that de-differentiation and reprogramming are hallmark mechanisms of numerous pathologies\, arguably genetically evolved to serve as protection mechanisms. \n\nAcknowledgements: This work was done in collaboration with the Laboratory of Dr. Wagner and his colleagues.\n\nReferences: \nCaldwell AB\, Liu Q\, Schroth GP\, Tanzi RE\, Galasko DR\, Yuan SH\, Wagner SL\, Subramaniam S.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | From Hadrons to Hidden Assumptions: My Recent Work in Quantum Chromodynamics and Foundations of Physics
DESCRIPTION:Two recently initiated directions in my research will be discussed.  I will present the first results from a new program at the LHCb experiment at CERN to study hadronization\, i.e. how subnuclear particles called quarks and gluons form strong force bound states in quantum chromodynamics.  These studies at LHCb over the upcoming decade will drive ideas about how to investigate various hadronization mechanisms further at the future Electron-Ion Collider\, proposed for construction in the U.S. in the 2020s.  I will additionally give an overview of a project exploring the foundations of physics that aims to find a set of minimal assumptions from which the known laws of physics can be rederived.  Pinpointing the conditions under which the different branches of physics are valid should give a better understanding of them and may in turn provide new insights for future theories. \n

DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan Gilbert & Sullivan Society (UMGASS) is holding auditions for The Yeomen of the Guard\, or the Merryman and His Maid on Monday\, September 9th\, Tuesday\, September 10th\, and Wednesday\, September 11th at the Student Theater Arts Complex (STAC)\, 1201 Kipke Drive in Ann Arbor (directly east of the U-M football stadium) from 7:00 – 10:00 pm. All roles are available for SATB principals and chorus\; cast will be selected from the audition pool with no pre-casting. All are welcome to audition\, including students\, faculty / staff\, and general community members of Ann Arbor / Southeast Michigan area. To sign up for an audition time you may either attend the UMGASS Mass Meeting at 7:00 pm on Sunday\, September 8th at the Michigan League\, or e-mail umgassexec@umich.edu to have a member of the board sign you up by proxy. Walk-ins are also welcome\; please arrive before 9:00 pm if you plan to walk-in. Callbacks (if necessary) will be held on the evening of Thursday\, September 12th.\n\nPlease prepare ~32-64 bars of a selection from musical theater\, comic opera\, or opera (in English)\, and provide a legible copy for the accompanist. Be prepared to read selections from the libretto if you are interested in a speaking role. There will be no dance audition for this production. Rehearsals will average two days per week between Sunday afternoon and Thursday evening for both chorus and principals. Production dates are December 5 – 8\, 2019\, at the Lydia Mendelssohn Theater in the Michigan League\, with full staging and full orchestra.\n\nThe University of Michigan Gilbert & Sullivan Society (UMGASS) was founded in 1947 and is the oldest student-run society nationwide dedicated to performing the operettas of Sir William Gilbert and Sir Arthur Sullivan. Each year we bring together students and community members for two fully staged productions of Gilbert & Sullivan operettas\, which are performed with orchestra at the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre in downtown Ann Arbor. The quality of our productions sets a high standard for community G&S companies\, and our performances\, particularly of the lesser-known works of the canon\, are benchmarks for similar organizations around the country and the world. \n​\nWe’re proud to be a great place for future performing arts professionals as well as a creative outlet for students\, professors\, and community members of all ages looking to blow off steam and have a good time participating in a great show!\n\nThe Yeomen of the Guard was the 11th collaboration between librettist W.S. Gilbert and composer Arthur Sullivan. The story takes place at the Tower of London\, where the heroic Colonel Fairfax is scheduled to be executed the following morning on questionable grounds. The Colonel’s heirs will be disinherited if he dies unmarried\, and so he finds a short-term bride in the strolling player\, Elsie Maynard – much to the chagrin of her infatuated traveling partner\, the jester Jack Point. Meanwhile\, the Colonel’s friends and admirers work for his release – or for his escape\, if necessary. Will the Colonel\, his impetuous marriage\, and the broken-hearted jester all survive until the final curtain? This time there will be no last-minute topsy-turvy revelation to prevent the story’s dramatic conclusion.\n\nYeomen of the Guard will be directed by David Andrews\, who most recently directed UMGASS’s 2018 production of The Grand Duke\, and who will be directing with UMGASS for the eighth time\, among his 22 semesters with the group. Music Director for this production will be Ezra Donner\, a U-M alumnus with a Doctor of Music degree from Indiana University\, who conducted previous UMGASS productions of The Mikado\, Patience\, HMS Pinafore\, and The Pirates of Penzance between 2015 and 2017. The Choreographer will be UMGASS veteran Beth Ballbach\, who choreographed recent UMGASS productions of Princess Ida\, Iolanthe\, The Grand Duke\, and The Gondoliers\, among many others.\n\nFor additional information on Yeomen\, including audio files of the music\, check out the Gilbert & Sullivan Archive at https://gsarchive.net/yeomen/html/index.html.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Literati Bookstore Presents Sister Helen Prejean
DESCRIPTION:Literati is pleased to welcome Sister Helen Prejean to First United Methodist Church of Ann Arbor in support of her latest\, River of Fire: My Spiritual Journey. Sr. Helen will be introduced by Ashley Lucas\, Director of the Prison Creative Arts Project at the University of Michigan\, and joined in conversation by Rev. Nancy S. Lynn. A Q&A and book signing will follow.\n\nThe event is free and open to the public\, though a free general admission ticket is required. A limited number of book bundle tickets are also available\, and these include a hardcover copy River of Fire\, reserved general admission seating at the front of the venue\, and signing line priority (note that for parties wishing to sit together in this reserved area\, each member must purchase a book bundle ticket).\n\nCopies of River of Fire and a selection Sister Helen's previous books will be available for purchase for all guests. Any person with books to sign may join the signing line\, following all Book Bundle guests.\n\nPlease note that FUMC's sanctuary is not air-conditioned. Guests are welcomed and encouraged to bring personal fans if it proves to be a particularly warm evening.\n\nParking in downtown Ann Arbor can be difficult. Surface spots are sparse\, but a detailed map of available (and walkable) parking structures can be found here.\n\nAbout the Book: In this revelatory\, intimate memoir of her childhood\, her spiritual evolution\, and how she became “lit” to her crusade\, Sister Helen chronicles her journey from one who prayed for God to solve the world’s problems to one engaged full-tilt\, hands-on\, in the work to transform societal injustices. She writes about growing up in a well-off Baton Rouge family\, one that still employed black servants in the racially segregated South\, and how she joined the Sisters of St. Joseph at the age of eighteen. Life in the novitiate\, which aimed at spiritual holiness\, set strict boundaries of separation from the (sinful) “world” – but all that changed in the wake of Vatican II\, which brought the winds of change in the Catholic Church. Inspired by Catholic activists such as Dorothy Day in the inner city and Jesuit priests who went to prison for destroying draft files in opposition to the Vietnam war\, Sister Helen started to immerse herself in the struggle of poor people in New Orleans forced to live on the margins of society. River of Fire is at turns honest and humorous\, and she writes openly about her friendships with other women who have inspired and nurtured her\, as well as a close friendship with a priest— obsessively intent on marrying her—and how these relationships challenged her vocation in “new territory of the heart” and propelled her further into deepening both her life in the Sisterhood and her engagement in social justice\, where she is today.\n\nRiver of Fire is a story of faith and spirituality\, doubt and belief\, addressed to believers\, agnostics\, and “nones” alike. It tells about “catching on fire” to purpose and passion. Accessible\, humorous\, luminous and on point for these polarized times when awakened social conscience and citizen action have never been more needed\, Sister Helen shows us how to live a spiritual life that is wide awake to the sufferings and creative opportunities of our world.\n\nHelen Prejean\, CSJ\, is the author of the #1 national bestseller Dead Man Walking. A member of the Congregation of St. Joseph\, she has appeared on 60 Minutes\, Frontline\, The Oprah Winfrey Show\, ABC's World News Tonight\, The Rachel Maddow Show\, Democracy Now!\, Crossfire\, NBC's special series on the death penalty\, and NPR's All Things Considered\, and has been featured in The New York Times Magazine\, USA Today\, Los Angeles Times\, and The New York Review of Books.\n\nAbout First United Methodist Church: At First United Methodist Church of Ann Arbor\, we welcome everyone of every ability! Young or old\, Democrat or Republican\, gay or straight\, genderqueer or cisgender\, filled with doubts or firm in your faith--you are invited to join us. Our congregation is grounded in the gospel of Jesus Christ\, which tears down walls and builds up community.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Circulating the Avant-Garde: Aesthetic Counter-Publics in the Little Magazines\, 1890-1920
DESCRIPTION:Thanks to advances in color lithography and photo-engraving as well as resurgent interest in small-press publishing\, richly illustrated and typeset “little magazines” flourished between 1890 and 1920. The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:“Multi-Omics Systems Biology Approach to  Vascular Biology”
DESCRIPTION:Shankar Subramaniam\nUniversity of California San Diego\n	   \n“Multi-Omics Systems Biology Approach to\n Vascular Biology”\n\nAbstract:  \n\nOver the past decade\, we have investigated the mechanisms associated with shear stress response in endothelial cells using systems biology approaches [e.g. 1-8]. In the most recent granting period\, we have carried out longitudinal analysis of distinctive shear stress response to pulsatile and oscillatory stress corresponding to normal and disturbed flow in blood vessels. Our studies have provided fundamental insights into temporally regulated mechanisms as well as a systems-level view of stress response. Our key findings also included implications of long noncoding RNA molecules – LEENE and LINC341 - which appear to have dramatic consequences on endothelial homeostasis. The regulation by LINC RNAs entails the coupling between KLF4 and genes involved in endothelial function. In addition\, we explored the interplay between endothelial cells and macrophages in atherogenesis. These studies reveal a novel mechanisms in which the transcription factor KLF4 regulates the enzyme cholesterol-25-hydroxylase and the nuclear hormone receptor Liver X Receptor. Our key findings indicate that KLF4 transactivates cholesterol-25-hydroxylase and liver X receptor\, thereby promoting the synergistic effects between ECs and macrophages to protect against atherosclerosis susceptibility. \n\nAcknowledgements: Supported by NHLBI Grants R01HL106579 and HL108735\; Collaborative projects with Drs.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Graffiti as Devotion along the Nile: El-Kurru\, Sudan
DESCRIPTION:Ancient graffiti provide a unique glimpse into the lives of individuals in antiquity. Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Early History of South Africa\, c. 900-1930
DESCRIPTION:During the millennium preceding European colonialism\, South Africans forged societies characterized by dispersed political networks\, long-distance commerce\, extensive regional interactions\, and overlapping flows of people\, ideas\, and materials.  By the 18th century\, their political economies and political beliefs yielded powerful kingdoms.  Colonial political mythology rests on the notion that early Europeans ‘set up a country bare’ and devoid of civilization. The early history of South Africa reveals a far more complex past.\n\nDr. Jimenez is an LSA Collegiate Fellow in the Department of History at the University of Michigan. She received her Ph.D. from Northwestern University in 2017. Her research uses comparative historical linguistics to recover the undocumented past. She is interested in the ways southern African speech communities crafted political beliefs and practices over several centuries\, how these beliefs shaped gendered and generational social relations\, and the ways enduring ideas shaped the rise of centralized kingdoms.\n\nThis is the first in a six-lecture series. The subject is South Africa: Past\, Present\, and a Look Forward. The next lecture will be September 19\, 2019. The title is: Is Democracy Alive and Well in South Africa?  Evaluating the results of the 2019 National Elections.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Daughters of Memory: Paintings and Poems on the Nine Muses
DESCRIPTION:Daughters of Memory: Paintings and Poems on the Nine Muses is an interdisciplinary show of works by Cindy Sowers exploring the elusive sources for the ancient figures of the Muses\, as well as the appropriation of these figures by different artists through the ages.\n\nReception for the Artist: September 6\, approximately 4:30pm. Refreshments will be served. \n\nCindy Sowers received her B.A. from Oakland University\, her M.A. from University of Michigan in Comparative Literature\, and her Ph.D. also from the University of Michigan in Comparative Literature. During her Masters program in 1973\, she started teaching at the Residential College in the First Year Seminar and French programs. Her dissertation\, The Shared Structure of Craft and Song: A Study of Homer’s Narrative Art\, revealed passions for narrative and visual analysis comparatively understood that would characterize her teaching thereafter.  She participated in an interdisciplinary group composed of Residential College humanities and fine arts faculty who together constructed the Arts and Ideas in the Humanities concentration. Cindy's recent course offerings have included critical approaches to the literature and visual arts of classic modernism\, postmodernism\, Shakespeare and Rome\, the heritage of Greece\, the psychoanalytic interpretation of the arts\, and many others. She combines analyses of literary texts\, visual arts\, and philosophy to hone in on the animating spirit of a cultural moment and space.  She has presented at the Royal Shakespeare Company's 2006 U-M residency\, as part of the RC Faculty Colloquium\, for the LSA Comparative Literature and the Colloquium on Critical Theory sponsored by the LSA Department of English Language and Literature\, and at the Residential College's 50th Anniversary celebration. She has received the Ford Foundation Fellowship\, the Rackham Prize twice\, the U-M Excellence in Teaching Award\, the Matthews Underclass Teaching Award\, and is a member of the Medieval Academy of America. Cindy retires from her position as a Senior Lecturer and Lecturer IV\, having served in the Residential College for 46 years. She has an active art practice\, and her work will be displayed in the RC Art Gallery in a fall 2019 exhibition. She also maintains a personal website\, cynthiasowers.rc.lsa.umich.edu\, where she publishes essays\, poetry\, and visual artwork.

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:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics:
DESCRIPTION:In the midst of the political and cultural upheavals of the 60s and 70s\, artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ceal Floyer: Things
DESCRIPTION:Visitors entering Floyer’s installation Things (2009) in the Irving Stenn\, Jr. Family Gallery encounter a collection of identical plinths that would ordinarily be used to display art objects in the Museum\, but these platforms are empty. In place of visible objects\, each plinth is equipped with a speaker from which we hear the word “thing” sung—edited out of and isolated from a range of pop songs. The result is an amusing and thoughtful exploration of language\, meaning\, and the conventions of museum presentation and spectatorship.\n \nThe installation\, like much of Berlin-based artist Ceal Floyer’s art\, is characteristically austere\, but its visual simplicity masks a more complicated message—often a wry cerebral twist the artist creates through language-based symbols and aesthetic devices. Floyer’s work is rooted in conceptual art\, in which the idea\, delivered through words or acts that undercut or supersede formal qualities\, is the essence of the artwork.\n\nLead support  for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan College of Engineering and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design\, Institute for the Humanities\, CEW+ Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund\, and School of Music\, Theatre & Dance.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Copies and Invention in East Asia
DESCRIPTION:Far from being frowned upon as uncreative\, in China\, Korea\, and Japan\, copying has long been considered a valuable practice. Through works of art spanning ancient to contemporary times\, Copies and Invention in East Asia challenges our understanding of originality\, and presents copying as an act of imaginative interpretation. The exhibition includes burial goods that conjure a world for the deceased\; Buddhist sculptures produced in multiples to amplify religious experience and meaning\; paintings in which a master’s brushstrokes are faithfully duplicated as a way of shaping the self\; and contemporary works that address multiplicity and duplication in the modern world.\n\nLead support is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies\, Center for Japanese Studies\, Nam Center for Korean Studies\, School of Information\, and College of Engineering. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Fabrication Studio at the Duderstadt Center\, the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures\, and SeeMeCNC 3D Printers.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Egon Schiele
DESCRIPTION:Egon Schiele (1890-1918)\, one of the most well-known and controversial figures of Austrian Expressionism\, made more than 3\,000 works over the span of his short life and career. Working at the turn of the twentieth century\, Schiele challenged the classical conventions of the day producing emotionally charged—often unsettling—drawings and watercolors depicting landscapes\, portraits\, and nudes. Two retired U-M professors recently gifted four works of art by Schiele to UMMA. Throughout their lifetimes\, Frances McSparran (English language and literature) and the late Ernst Pulgram (Romance and classical linguistics) collected over forty Austrian and German Expressionist works\, donating many of them to the Museum. The three watercolors and one drawing on view in this special installation complement the couple’s previous gifts of works by Schiele and his contemporaries Oskar Kokoschka\, George Grosz\, and Gustav Klimt\, reuniting these important works that together provide important insights into this tumultuous period in European history.        \n\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Workshop on Interdisciplinarity
DESCRIPTION:Professor Henderson will meet with graduate students in order to discuss the special challenges of doing interdisciplinary work\, from doing research outside one’s field to finding publication venues and audiences.\n\nProfessor Henderson's research centers in nineteenth-century British culture. She is particularly interested in exploring formal similarities between literary arts\, visual arts\, and sciences. Her most recent book\, Algebraic Art: Mathematical Formalism and Victorian Culture (Oxford: Oxford University Press\, 2018)\, traces the influence of mathematical formalism on Victorian literature and visual art. Other recent articles include “The Physics and Poetry of Analogy” (Victorian Studies 56:3\, Spring 2014) and “Symbolic Logic and the Logic of Symbolism” (Critical Inquiry 41:1\, Autumn 2014). \n\nProfessor Henderson received her PhD in English from the University of Pennsylvania in 1991. She was an Associate Professor of English at the University of Michigan from 1997-2003. Her academic distinctions include the following: Guggenheim Fellow (2012-13)\, ACLS Fellow (2012-13)\, Michigan Humanities Award (1999)\, Bredvold Prize (1996)\, and Michigan Society of Fellows (1991-1994).\n\nCo-sponsorship for this event is generously provided by the Michigan Society of Fellows\, the Department of Comparative Literature\, and the Institute for the Humanities.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series | An Exploration of Japanese Game Audio
DESCRIPTION:Quite possibly the primary means that most Americans have encountered Japanese culture\, if not by food\, is through video game music. Japanese composed themes and game audio techniques from the 70s and 80s are still used in modern games and even played in concert halls. This music has become one of Japan’s most notable exports to the world. In this presentation\, Dr. Thompson will lead a journey through some of the most famous and influential video game music that he enjoyed during his childhood in the early days of game audio\, and then turn to more recent topics\, including recent research on the influence of video game music on piano study in Japan.\n   \nMatthew Thompson\, DMA — collaborative piano\, is Assistant Professor of Music at the University of Michigan School of Music\, Theatre & Dance. As a pianist\, Thompson has performed with operatic celebrities like Thomas Hampson\, Golden Mask winner Vince Yi\, and musical theatre gurus like Tony Award winner\, Gavin Creel. Equally comfortable collaborating with instrumentalists\, Thompson’s most recent recording project\, Japonica\, is comprised of Japanese composed oboe/piano duos with recent U-M alumnus\, Dr. Alex Hayashi. Thompson’s research interests in game audio pedagogy have garnered international attention\; he presents regularly nationally and serves on the advisory board for GameSoundCon and a committee member for the North American Conference on Video Game Music.\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:Lecture / Discussion:The Expulsion of Hagar
DESCRIPTION:In the book of Genesis\, Hagar is an Egyptian\, an enslaved woman\, a surrogate\, a wife\, and a mother. As the wife of Abraham and the mother of Ishmael\, she is a recognized figure in Judaism\, Christianity\, and Islam. At the request of Sarah\, Abraham’s first wife and mother of Isaac\, Abraham expels Hagar and Ishmael from his household. In this lecture\, Nyasha Junior surveys how different religious and cultural traditions have understood Sarah’s motivations and actions. The lecture is based on Dr. Junior’s recent book Reimagining Hagar: Blackness and the Bible (Oxford University Press\, 2019). Join us and follow the conversation on Twitter at #ReHagar.\n\nThere is both an accessible elevator and gender-neutral restroom on the first and second floor.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Asymmetric interaction on dynamics in network connectivity among agents
DESCRIPTION:There is an increasing body of literature on understanding the process of evacuation\, and it focuses both on people's behavior and emergency management. We need to consider aspects of interaction among people under nonotice disaster for planning with evacuation demand. This seminar examines the effect of social interaction on discrete choice during the network formation process. The primary objective is to evaluate influence on risk regarding from others in greater detail while considering how influencers and network structures affect one-to-one interactions. This talk examines an analytical framework for simultaneous evaluation of social interaction and social network formation. The framework is well suited to dynamic disaster situations because local interaction heavily influences human decision-making\, and because network formation changes over time.\n\nJunji Urata is an assistant professor in Department of Civil Engineering at University of Tokyo. His research interests include behavioral modeling\, analytics of traffic demand\, social interaction\, dynamic programming\, and high performance computing.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Prediction under chaos using a depth-averaged model of turbidity currents
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: In this talk\, I will demonstrate a forward stratigraphic model based on depth-averaged governing equations for the flow of submarine turbidity currents over an erodible bed. This model is being used with some success by the Process Stratigraphy team at ExxonMobil to generate stratigraphic models for deepwater environments of deposition. The mathematical model consists of a system of nonlinear hyperbolic PDEs\, with an additional so-called Exner equation for modeling the flow-bed sediment exchange and their bedload transport. The Exner equation plays a key role since a (slow time scale) change in the gradient of the bed influences the (fast time scale) momentum of the flow. The transport equations\, along with closure models for sediment transport\, TKE balance\, and water entrainment\, are solved using a first-order finite-volume method with a HLLC approximate Riemann solver and integrated using an explicit Euler scheme. The model shows the emergence of self-organized patterns in the deposits\, including the creation of bedforms\, channel formation\, and avulsions\, consistent with observations of modern systems and lab experiments. These occur even with uniform boundary conditions and symmetric initial conditions. The initial disturbances that trigger these mechanisms are ostensibly sourced by floating-point roundoff errors. An ensemble of simulations with slightly different initial conditions are used to analyze statistics on shapes of geomorphic elements and grain size distributions. The objective is to assess whether and under what conditions such a numerical model can be predictive and quantify the uncertainty in the results arising due to the irreducible chaos in the dynamical system.\nBio: Ramanathan Vishnampet is a Computational Data Scientist at the Global Business Lines Analytics & Optimization group at ExxonMobil Upstream Integrated Solutions. He graduated with a Ph.D. in Theoretical and Applied Mechanics from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign\, where his dissertation focused on an exact and consistent adjoint method for high-fidelity discretization of the compressible flow equations.

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 p.m. to 5 p.m.\n\nTitle: \nReplication or exploration? Sequential design for stochastic simulation experiments\n\nAbstract: \nWe investigate the merits of replication\, and provide methods that search for optimal designs (including replicates)\, in the context of noisy computer simulation experiments. We first show that replication offers the potential to be beneficial from both design and computational perspectives\, in the context of Gaussian process surrogate modeling. We then develop a lookahead based sequential design scheme that can determine if a new run should be at an existing input location (i.e.\, replicate) or at a new one (explore). When paired with a newly developed heteroskedastic Gaussian process model\, our dynamic design scheme facilitates learning of signal and noise relationships which can vary throughout the input space. We show that it does so efficiently\, on both computational and statistical grounds. In addition to illustrative synthetic examples\, we demonstrate performance on two challenging real-data simulation experiments\, from inventory management and epidemiology.\n\nBio:\nRobert Gamacy is a Professor of Statistics in the College of Science at Virginia Polytechnic and State University (Virginia Tech). Previously\, he was an Associate Professor of Econometrics and Statistics at the Booth School of Business\, and a fellow of the Computation Institute at The University of Chicago. His research interests include Bayesian modeling methodology\, statistical computing\, Monte Carlo inference\, nonparametric regression\, sequential design\, and optimization under uncertainty.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CLASP Seminar Series: Dr. Andrew Dimmock
DESCRIPTION:CLASP is very pleased to welcome Dr. Andrew Dimmock of the 	Swedish Institute of Space Physics (IRF - INSTITUTET FÖR RYMDFYSIK). \n\nDr. Dimmock will give a presentation titled: \n\"Geomagnetically Induced Currents in Fennoscandia.\"\n\nAbstract: Geomagnetically Induced Currents (GICs) are a space weather hazard affecting numerous large ground-based technological networks such as pipelines\, telecommunication wires\, and power-lines. They are caused by the geoelectric field which is set up from rapid variations in the geomagnetic field (dB/dt) and the conductive nature of the ground. GICs pose a challenge to forecasters due to their regional variability resulting from the complex and dynamic spatiotemporal behaviour of the ionospheric currents\, and/or the regional variability of the ground conductivity. In many cases\, both of these effects are important\, making the spatial structure of the geoelectric field very complex.\n\nIn this seminar\, the challenges associated with understanding and predicting the regional variability of GICs are discussed. A case study of the September 2017 storms is reviewed\, in which unusually large GICs in the Finnish natural gas pipeline were recorded. Following this\, statistical results are shown which quantify the spatial variation of dB/dt on spatial scales of approximately 500km. We also examine the potential contribution from localised conductivity features on GICs. The seminar is concluded with a discussion of ongoing research followed by open questions/discussions.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Background Music vs. Neorealist Music: The Case of THE BICYCLE THIEF
DESCRIPTION:Italian filmic neorealism was more an ethic than an esthetic\; it was not an organized movement but a constellation of directors and films who made a virtue of necessity. Nonetheless\, in hindsight it has come to be defined by its stylistic innovations (for example\, the use of location rather than studio\, and of non-professional actors). As a result\, the critical bibliography on the topic deals extensively with individual films\, the auteurs\, and with matters of form and content (the introduction of the perspective of the subaltern classes)\, the contribution of the musical score to the emotional and intellectual impact of the films has been given much less attention.\nThe purpose of this paper is that of beginning to address that lacuna.\n\nJoseph Francese is University Distinguished Faculty at Michigan State University\, Series Editor of “Studi di italianistica moderna e contemporanea nel mondo anglofono/Studies in Modern and Contemporary Italianistica in the Anglophone World” (a monograph series published by Firenze University Press) and Senior Editor emeritus of ITALIAN CULTURE (2003-2018). He is the author of numerous articles and chapters on topics in Renaissance and contemporary literature and film (including an essay on the influence of Cesare Zavattini on Latin American cinema)\, and has written monographs on Sciascia\, Pasolini\, postmodern narrative\, Italian cultural politics in the 1950s\, and the fictions of Eco\, Consolo\, and Tabucchi.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Characterization and Combination
DESCRIPTION:Professor Henderson's talk will explore the power of combinatorics—a popular subfield of Victorian mathematics—to illuminate the structure of late Victorian characterization\, focusing particularly on Dickens’s Our Mutual Friend. It will show that there is a good historical reason why\, in the words of a contemporary reviewer\, the characters of this novel could be described as “a number of automatons moving about\,” “tattooed with various characteristics”: nodes in a social network\, they are the literary\nembodiment of a conception of personhood as mobile\, extrinsically defined\, and combinatory. Characters in these novels are not the fundamental units of social meaning that earlier nineteenth-century novelistic protocols would lead us to expect but are instead like atoms in a compound or letters in a word\; they form variable combinations with others\, and it’s the combinations that matter. Henderson will show that this focus on clusters of people rather than singular individuals has its historical grounding in the logic of late Victorian capitalism\, an abstract logic of ramifying networks in which meaning and value inhere less in particular people or things than in their links to other people and things. As we will see\, that logic is epitomized in combinatorics\, the study of network ramification. Henderson argues that combinatorics is in fact the mathematical subfield of late Victorian capitalism: it both reflects and reinforces a logic of abstraction\, combination\, and expansion. It is fitting then that Dickens implements this logic in the “character system” of Our Mutual Friend\, his great novel on finance capitalism. This novel\, as the title suggests\, is devoted to understanding persons in terms of networks\, which it represents as the ethically suspect framework of finance capitalism.\n\nProfessor Henderson's research centers in nineteenth-century British culture. She is particularly interested in exploring formal similarities between literary arts\, visual arts\, and sciences. Her most recent book\, Algebraic Art: Mathematical Formalism and Victorian Culture (Oxford: Oxford University Press\, 2018)\, traces the influence of mathematical formalism on Victorian literature and visual art. Other recent articles include “The Physics and Poetry of Analogy” (Victorian Studies 56:3\, Spring 2014) and “Symbolic Logic and the Logic of Symbolism” (Critical Inquiry 41:1\, Autumn 2014). \n\nProfessor Henderson received her PhD in English from the University of Pennsylvania in 1991. She was an Associate Professor of English at the University of Michigan from 1997-2003. Her academic distinctions include the following: Guggenheim Fellow (2012-13)\, ACLS Fellow (2012-13)\, Michigan Humanities Award (1999)\, Bredvold Prize (1996)\, and Michigan Society of Fellows (1991-1994).\n\nCo-sponsorship for this event is generously provided by the Michigan Society of Fellows\, the Department of Comparative Literature\, and the Institute for the Humanities.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM Theory Seminar | Topological and Fractional Electronic States in Graphene Heterostructures
DESCRIPTION:Graphene is a highly tunable platform for studying the effects of electron-electron interactions in two dimensions. Encapsulation with a 2D dielectric (hexagonal boron nitride\, hBN)\, and more recently the use of single-crystal graphite top and bottom gates have decreased the electronic disorder to a level suitable for the to study fragile and exotic strongly correlated states. Additionally\, control of twist angle between closely-matched crystal lattices allows for unique control of electronic properties\, leading to the “Hofstadter butterfly” and more recently unconventional superconductivity. I will describe newly discovered exotic fractional quantum Hall states and a class of related states called fractional Chern insulators\, both in high quality graphene heterostructures. These measurements show that graphene is an intriguing platform for realizing new topological and fractional phases\, and opens new routes towards realizing interesting quantum phase transitions and manipulating non-abelian quasiparticles for quantum computation.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Communication & Media Speaker Series
DESCRIPTION:Current Controversies in Sports\, Media\, and Society sheds light on how various issues\, including racism\, sexism\, ageism\, religion\, politics\, and more\, are depicted in sports media.  The lecture will present research showcasing how sports media representations of athletes can influence both American culture and the individuals who consume said media. \n\nCynthia Frisby is a nationally-recognized authority on media portrayals of minorities\, athletes\, women and teens. Frisby studies how media messages contribute toward creating or maintaining stereotypes and biases against minorities\, athletes\, women and teens. Among other topics\, she has investigated the coverage of black male athletes by magazines and news websites from 2002-2012 and demonstrated that news stories involving instances of crime or violence were more heavily covered when they involved black athletes.\n\nFrisby's enthusiasm for her research is reflected clearly in the classroom\, where she has won numerous awards for excellence in teaching. In 2002 the University of Missouri awarded her one of its highest teaching honors\, the William T. Kemper Fellowship. Student-athletes recognized her outstanding teaching by naming her one of the four Most Inspiring Professors on the MU campus in 2007. Several Mizzou '39 honorees have named Frisby as their mentor. Mizzou '39 honors outstanding seniors for their academic achievements\, leadership and service.\n\nFrisby earned her doctorate degree and her master's degree from the University of Florida's College of Journalism and Mass Communications. She joined the Missouri School of Journalism faculty in January 1998 and is a full professor of strategic communication with a joint appointment in the communication department in the College of Arts and Science.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Thursday Seminar: Robots\, telemetry\, and the sex lives of wild birds: Using technology to study courtship and conservation
DESCRIPTION:Males in many species must convince females to mate by producing elaborate courtship displays tuned to female preferences\, like the song of a cricket or the train of a peacock. But courtship in many species is more like a negotiation than an advertisement\, thus in addition to elaborate signals\, success in courtship may require tactical skills. These skills may include the ability to choose a flattering display site\, respond appropriately to female courtship signals\, and adjust display investment in response to the marketplace of other males and females. My lab has been investigating courtship negotiations in greater sage-grouse\, which mate in an open marketplace of competing males and choosing females (the lek). I will discuss experiments using robotic females to investigate courtship interactions between the sexes. I will also discuss ongoing research investigating how off-lek foraging behaviors affect on-lek displays\, and how this basic science has informed my lab's research into human impacts on lekking activities.\n\nView YouTube video of seminar: https://youtu.be/6uyRvNb_vGg

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Cyborg Arts / Neil Harbisson & Moon Ribas: Transpecies
DESCRIPTION:Catalan-based artists\, self-identified cyborgs\, and influencers in the global cyborg art movement\, Neil Harbisson and Moon Ribas use the internet as a sense to fuel perception\, understanding\, and self expression. Both artists explore the boundaries between cybernetics and organism\, defend the freedom of self-design\, and believe that embracing our nonhuman entities can bring us closer with the organic worlds of animals\, nature\, and the cosmos. Together\, Ribas and Harbisson advocate on behalf of cyborgs worldwide through the Cyborg Foundation. Founded in 2010\, the foundation is committed to the self-actualization of cyborg identities\, trans-species rights\, and the promotion of cyborg art. An avant-garde artist\, Ribas is best known for developing Seismic Sense\, an online seismic sensor implanted in her feet that allows her to perceive earthquakes taking place around the planet — and on the moon — through vibrations in real time. With an antenna implanted in his skull\, Harbisson’s creative expression extends to his physical body as well\, with the focus of his work dedicated to an exploration of identity\, perception\, the connection between sight and sound\, and the use of artistic expression via new sensory inputs. Harbisson and Ribas ask us to consider: “What separates human beings from the technology we create and use?”\n\nPresented with support from the Dissonance Event Series and the School of Information.\n\n Photos by Mark Kaplan (left) and Lars Norgaard (right)

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Queer(y)ing the “Alt-Right” on YouTube
DESCRIPTION:This is the final event for the Cultural Formations of the \"Alt-Right\" conference: https://events.umich.edu/event/63430\n\nSocial media have been key to the recent rise of the “alt-right\,” and YouTube has spawned entire networks of “alternative influencers” who peddle misogyny\, white supremacy\, ethno-nationalism\, fascism\, and populist messages of hate. How do we counter the spread of this movement\, both online and in real life? \nOne YouTuber has devised a particularly compelling format in which to respond to the “alt-right” where it thrives. On her ContraPoints channel\, Natalie Wynn has been creating carefully crafted\, intricately staged\, persona-multiplying video essays in which she takes on everything from “Incels” to “Redpiling\,” embraces the social justice warrior moniker and instructs her viewers on “How to recognize a Fascist.”\n\nJoin us for a screening of ContraPoints’ “Jordan Peterson” (2018)\, followed by a videoconference Q&A with Natalie Wynn herself.
