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:Re: Housing: Detroit
DESCRIPTION:As North American cities work through the long-term implications of globalization\, disinvestment\, and post-recession revitalization\, affordable housing and community resilience are essential\, but often elusive elements of urban life. In its inclusive vision of “A City for All\,” Detroit’s unprecedented multi-pronged approach to housing and neighborhood preservation and development offers lessons relevant to both rapidly growing and Rust Belt cities looking to preserve existing housing stock and spark new development.\n\nRe: Housing: Detroit\, a symposium held in Detroit and Ann Arbor at the University of Michigan\, will convene innovators and researchers across the academy\, real estate\, architecture\, planning\, housing advocacy\, and the city of Detroit in pursuit of real solutions to Detroit’s “Missing Middle” density housing. Architects and developers working on current projects in Detroit will meet together with others working on similar projects in the US and internationally in the context of the Detroit’s Month of Design and biennial exhibition “Detroit Design 139.” Through panels focused on urban density\, domestic arrangements\, and development protocols\, they will exchange current research and contemporary projects that address the design of inclusive\, affordable\, medium-density housing.\n\nThe symposium is part of a five-year collaboration between the City of Detroit Planning and Development Department and Taubman College\, University of Michigan.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Austerity and Anti-Austerity Beyond Capitalism
DESCRIPTION:During the global economic crisis of 2008 many observers predicted that austerity economics would be discredited and abandoned\, but over the ensuing decade it demonstrated surprising resilience. This conference will explore the history of opposition to austerity\, both retrieving overlooked forms of resistance and using those conflicts to better understand the nature of austerity itself. Over the past decade there has been a wave of path-breaking scholarship revealing the commonalities that linked capitalist and socialist economies across what has been traditionally called First\, Second\, and Third Worlds. That austerity doctrines themselves can emerge outside the well-studied context of neoliberalism\, however\, has received limited scholarly attention. We thus seek to create a new foundation to engage austerity more broadly beyond its neoliberal connotations. Our collaborative effort brings together expertise from various fields in the Humanities and Social Sciences and seeks to expand on this burgeoning reappraisal of economic systems. Increasingly\, we are coming to realize that capitalism and socialism shared a great many features in these regions—including the foundational assumptions that drive doctrines of austerity. Along these lines\, this conference will emphasize how austerity and anti-austerity clashed both within and beyond liberal capitalism\, and thus seek to better integrate the temporal and ideological binaries of political economy: pre-industrial and industrial\, capitalist and socialist\, communist and post-communist\, developed and underdeveloped\, colonial and post-colonial. In particular\, this will involve discussion of how a politics of anti-austerity was both imagined and articulated in opposition to a variety of austerity programs around the world. Forging a conversation across various regions\, we will investigate the potential of anti-austerity movements to topple governments\, collapse political orders\, and to affect other forms of change in society\, both in direct and visible ways as well as through protracted and less obvious struggles. This will also incorporate the failed attempts and arrested possibilities to displace austerity as a dominant socioeconomic formation.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Applied Microeconomics/IO Seminar: Temporary price reductions and competition: Evidence from a merger.
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nThis paper examines the importance of temporary price reductions in understanding competition. We examine a concentrated industry with some evidence of cooperation in price setting. We examine the US macro-beer market. We construct a model of conduct that allows producers to set both a regular price and a sale price. This model allows recovery of marginal costs and markups. We make use mixed strategy conditions required for the producers to allow retailers to choose the timing of sales to aid in the recovery of markups from sale frequencies and prices.  We estimate parameters from a virtual stakes super game\, that embody collusive behavior. We find that after a competitive shake up\, that is the merger between Miller and Coors\, that competition (measured as the markup over cost) decreased in the years after.

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: Kengo Kato\, Associate Professor\, Department of Statistics and Data Science\, Cornell University
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, I will discuss inference for the mean vector of a high\ndimensional U-statistic. In the era of Big Data\, the dimension of the U statistic and the sample size of the observations tend to be both large\, and the computation of the U-statistic is prohibitively demanding. Data-dependent inferential procedures such as the empirical bootstrap for U-statistics is even more computationally expensive. To overcome such computational bottleneck\, we introduce randomized incomplete U-statistics with sparse weights whose computational cost can be made independent of the order of the U-statistic. We derive non-asymptotic Gaussian approximation error bounds for the randomized incomplete U-statistics in high dimensions\, namely in cases where the dimension is possibly much larger than the sample size\, for both non-degenerate and degenerate kernels. In addition\, we propose generic bootstrap methods for the incomplete U-statistics that are computationally much less demanding than existing bootstrap methods and establish finite sample validity of the proposed bootstrap methods. If time permits\, I will also discuss the extension to infinite order U-statistics.

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: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.

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:Energy Leaders & Luminaries Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:This is a period of transformative change for planet Earth. We add 200\,000 people to the planet every single day. By the year 2030\, as a planet\, we will require 55% more material abstraction\, 30% more energy and 40% more fresh water. More than 90% of the world’s children breathe toxic air every day. So\, what is Cummins\, a midwestern manufacturer who produces engines and products that power the world\, doing about it? Hear from Chief Technical Officer Jennifer Rumsey explain how Cummins\, and those in their industry\, apply innovation with impact to create the most advanced technologies and products that directly improve climate change and air quality.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AE285 Undergraduate Seminar: Stealth…An Airplane Design Challenge
DESCRIPTION:In any combat scenario it is advantageous to be invisible or nearly invisible to your adversary (recall Desert Storm/bombing of Baghdad in 1991). In any situation it is very important to limit your opponent’s ability to harm you. More than 50 years ago initial stealth efforts focused on incorporating materials into an airplane’s design to reduce radar signatures. This proved to be a difficult and elusive goal. Today ‘stealth’ is designed into virtually every military vehicle.\n\nThis seminar will review the history of early stealth efforts and conclude with where the state-of-the-art is today. Air vehicles will be the main focus but it will also become clear that stealth is being added to the designs of land and sea vehicles as well. In this discussion reducing the ‘signature’ of an air vehicle to radar will be the primary focus. However\, it should be recognized that IR (infrared)\, audible\, and visual signatures can also be very important. They will be introduced with little discussion.\n\nUltimately\, the goal is to have a vehicle survive and be able to fly tomorrow’s missions or successfully penetrate enemy positions to destroy its target. Stealth is a major component of survivability but it is not the only one.\n\nWhat was the first stealth airplane? You may be surprised to learn the answer.\n\nAbout the Speaker\n\nMr. Carichner went to work for the Lockheed Skunk Works after earning his BS Engr and MS Engr degrees from UCLA. He retired in 2013 after 48 years at the Skunk Works where he worked on most of the company’s high-profile programs. During his career he started out as an aerodynamicist and eventually became Head of Aerodynamics for the Skunk Works. Future program assignments were either Chief Engineer or Program Manager positions. As Chief Engineer for the JASSM Program he was selected as Lockheed’s Inventor of the Year.\n\nThe last 15 years of his career were dedicated to lighter-than-air designs. He created the Aerocraft Program whose design resulted in a hybrid airship demonstrator that had many airplane flight characteristics that has changed the course of future airship design.\nCurrently\, Mr. Carichner teaches Airplane Design at Cal Poly Pomona\n\nMr. Carichner has written two textbooks. One on airplane design and another on airship design. Both books are published by the AIAA:\n\nFundamentals of Aircraft and Airship Design: Volume I - Aircraft Design\nFundamentals of Aircraft and Airship Design: Volume II - Airship Design and Case\nStudies

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Why Ignorance Fails to Recognize Itself
DESCRIPTION:I discuss the flawed evaluator problem\, which asks how well can people assess their own intellectual and social skills\, as well as those of others\, when their expertise inevitably contains gaps and defects?   I discuss how these imperfections lead people to misjudge themselves\, often causing them to miss their own incompetence and gullability (the so-called Dunning-Kruger effect)\, and misjudge others\, often prompting failures to recognize top-level competence and virtuosity among their peers (the Cassandra Quandary).  I discuss the implications of the flawed evaluator problem for personal issues as well as society at large.

SUMMARY:Presentation:CCN Forum:  Aiding Difficult and High-Stakes Medical Decision Making—Research on Tracheotomy Decisions for Critically Ill Children
DESCRIPTION:Many challenges exist in medical decisions where there is a continuum of treatment possibilities. For instance\, parents are sometimes faced with value-laden tracheotomy decisions\, choosing between accepting a machine-dependent life for their child or allowing death. Both providers and parents find these decisions difficult to discuss and make. Thus\, there is a need to understand and improve the decision process for promoting high-quality provider-parent communication and decision making. A series of qualitative and quantitative studies have revealed that parents lack understanding of long-term implications in order to accurately forecast possible outcomes. An experimental survey study has shown that other parents’ narratives of child’s long-term quality of life and home care challenges reduced the tendency to choose tracheotomy and increased concerns for future outcomes. These findings suggest that providing other parents’ experiences could be a feasible way to support parents to make informed decisions. An intervention development study is in progress to produce a variety of narratives for decision aiding.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:HET Seminar | Aspects of five-dimensional superconformal field theories
DESCRIPTION:Five-dimensional superconformal field theories (5d SCFTs) play an interesting role in the general understanding of quantum field theory. They often provide strongly-coupled UV fixed points with remarkable features for perturbatively non-renormalizable gauge theories\, which makes them interesting in their own right. Moreover\, prominent lower-dimensional theories can be obtained by compactification from five-dimensional parent theories\, and this perspective has led to numerous new insights. A fruitful interplay between string theory and quantum field theory methods has led to a coherent and thorough understanding of 5d SCFTs\, and I will review recent developments in this context.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: The Other Greenhouse Gas. Sources of Water Vapor\, from Lakes to Leaves\, from a Surface Measurement Perspective.
DESCRIPTION:Water vapor is the most abundant greenhouse gas in the atmosphere. Relative to all the absorbers of longwave radiation in the atmosphere\, water vapor is responsible for an estimated 50% of the total current greenhouse effect\, followed by clouds (25%)\, then CO2 (20%) (Schmidt et al.\, 2010).  Without water vapor and the other greenhouse gases\, the global mean average temperature would be a frigid -15 oC. Evaporation is the link between the energy and water balances\, and on an annual basis\, evaporation accounts for roughly 76% of the surface radiation budget. Critical to life in many aspects\, water plays a vital role in regulating the Earth’s temperature through both positive and negative feedbacks in the climate system. For example\, warming due to increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations can result in increased humidity thus additional warming (positive feedback)\, or increased cloud cover can result in surface cooling (negative feedback). \n\nDriven by recent observations of increases in humidity\, extreme events such as droughts and floods\, and issues concerning food security and water quality\, understanding how water enters the atmosphere through open water sources (e.g. lakes) and vegetation is critical to understand the changing environment.  Despite this need\, evaporation (and sublimation) conceptually appear as a simple process\; just place a pan of water outside and measure change in water level. Compared to the other well-known greenhouse gas carbon dioxide\, however\, water vapor is inherently difficult to measure and shows complex patterns in both space and time. From a measurement perspective\, water vapor exists in minute quantities in the atmosphere (roughly 4 ppm compared to 400 ppm for carbon dioxide)\, adheres to instruments such as sample tubes\, and changes phase with changes in temperature and pressure. Moreover\, evaporation shows large spatial and temporal patterns even over “simple” water bodies such as lakes and reservoirs. Control of transpiration from vegetation\, responsible for roughly 60% of the terrestrial global evaporation (Schlesinger and Jasechko\, 2014)\, also varies spatially from the scale of individual leaves to forests\, and is influenced by a myriad of both biotic and abiotic factors.\n\nGiven the importance of water vapor\, different measurement and modeling approaches to quantify the transfer of water from the Earth’s surface to the atmosphere have been attempted for decades. Starting with open water surfaces\, a summary of evaporation studies from reservoirs to the Great Lakes\, and from alpine wetlands and tundra to subalpine forests\, will be presented. Challenges and lessons learned from a field-study perspective of this vital component of the water cycle will be discussed.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CSAS Lecture Series | Widows under Hindu Law: an Overview
DESCRIPTION:This talk will present a broad history of the Hindu widow\, as she is treated within works of the voluminous\, two-millennia-long tradition of classical Hindu law known as Dharmaśāstra. Specifically\, it will show how the opinions of jurists working within the Hindu legal tradition changed over time on four major issues related to Hindu widows. These issues are: widow remarriage and levirate\; a widow’s right to inherit\; widow self-immolation or sati\; and widow-asceticism. This talk will then argue that the shifting opinions of Hindu jurists on these four issues are\, to a significant extent\, causally related to one or another and that they allow us to identify and track major shifts in orthodox Brahmanical attitudes toward women during the early medieval period (c. 500-1300 CE). \n    \nDavid Brick is assistant professor of Sanskrit literature at the University of Michigan. His research deals with diverse aspects of early India and Sanskrit literature with a special focus on the influential tradition of classical Hindu law known as Dharmaśāstra. His first book\, Brahmanical Theories of the Gift: A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation of the Dānakāṇḍa of the Kṛtyakalpatura (Harvard Oriental Series 2015)\, comprises the first critical edition and translation into any modern language of a dānanibandha\, a classical Hindu legal digest devoted to the culturally and religiously important topic of gifting. His next major project will be a comprehensive study of widows under Hindu law.\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.

DESCRIPTION:Serene\, pastoral\, and deceptively simple–no piece has come to define Aaron Copland’s reputation as the “American voice” of classical music more than the great American ballet\, Appalachian Spring. We travel to the fields of Galánta with the composer\, Zoltán Koldáy to continue our dance-inspired evening in Hill Auditorium. His Dances of Galánta holds a deeply personal meaning discovered by weaving through the Hungarian folk melodies from his childhood spent in Galánta surrounded by stunning orchestral colors. The distinct and fiery rhythms of Hungarian dances return and close the program with a performance of Brahms’ Piano Concerto No. 2\, op. 83 in B-flat major featuring celebrated pianist Emanuel Ax.

SUMMARY:Performance:The History of Physics in 13 Songs\, From Galileo to Dark Matter
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a 45-minute interdisciplinary musical performance that highlights the turning points in the history of physics. \n\nThe show combines fragments (excerpts from writings by some of the most prominent physicists in history) read and interpreted by a narrator (a role played by Lynnae Lehfeldt in the premiere)\, with original songs\, based on each fragment\, composed by Alberto Rojo\, and performed by Alberto Rojo (guitar and voice)\, Michael Gould (percussion)\, and Dave Haughey (cello). The project explores the intersection between the arts and the sciences\, and postulates that art and science are not antagonistic alternatives in the search for truth\; rather\, there is a broad territory of coexistence. \n\nThe movements are as follows Galileo (The Book of the Universe)\; Isaac Newton (From the Principia)\; Pierre Maupertuis (Least Action)\; Rudolf Clausius (The Limiting Condition)\; Ludwig Boltzmann (Atomic movements)\; James Clerk Maxwell (From letters to Faraday)\; Marie Curie (Radioactivity)\; Albert Einstein (From the 1905 paper)\; Max Planck (The quantum of action)\; Werner Heisenberg (Analogies)\; J. S. Bell (Remote Instruments)\; Richard Feynman (Trees are made of air)\; Vera Rubin (Dark Matter)

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:Conference / Symposium:Austerity and Anti-Austerity Beyond Capitalism
DESCRIPTION:During the global economic crisis of 2008 many observers predicted that austerity economics would be discredited and abandoned\, but over the ensuing decade it demonstrated surprising resilience. This conference will explore the history of opposition to austerity\, both retrieving overlooked forms of resistance and using those conflicts to better understand the nature of austerity itself. Over the past decade there has been a wave of path-breaking scholarship revealing the commonalities that linked capitalist and socialist economies across what has been traditionally called First\, Second\, and Third Worlds. That austerity doctrines themselves can emerge outside the well-studied context of neoliberalism\, however\, has received limited scholarly attention. We thus seek to create a new foundation to engage austerity more broadly beyond its neoliberal connotations. Our collaborative effort brings together expertise from various fields in the Humanities and Social Sciences and seeks to expand on this burgeoning reappraisal of economic systems. Increasingly\, we are coming to realize that capitalism and socialism shared a great many features in these regions—including the foundational assumptions that drive doctrines of austerity. Along these lines\, this conference will emphasize how austerity and anti-austerity clashed both within and beyond liberal capitalism\, and thus seek to better integrate the temporal and ideological binaries of political economy: pre-industrial and industrial\, capitalist and socialist\, communist and post-communist\, developed and underdeveloped\, colonial and post-colonial. In particular\, this will involve discussion of how a politics of anti-austerity was both imagined and articulated in opposition to a variety of austerity programs around the world. Forging a conversation across various regions\, we will investigate the potential of anti-austerity movements to topple governments\, collapse political orders\, and to affect other forms of change in society\, both in direct and visible ways as well as through protracted and less obvious struggles. This will also incorporate the failed attempts and arrested possibilities to displace austerity as a dominant socioeconomic formation.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Nature a Moment: Visions of the World from Three Korean-American Artists
DESCRIPTION:Three Chicago-area Korean-American artists render deeply personal interpretations of the natural world in the exhibit “Nature a Moment” at Matthaei Botanical Gardens. Using woodcut\, painting on canvas\, and mixed media\, Linda Hyong\, Sung Eun Hong\, and Seong Ok Lee explore the world of flowers\, gardens\, and nature in vivid works that slow time to a fleeting present moment.\n\nLinda Hyong is a University of Michigan alumna and former teaching assistant in the U-M Stamps School of Art & Design. She draws her inspiration from Claude Monet’s water lily garden in France to create her own modern interpretation of impressionism. Seong Ok Lee is inspired by flowers\, which she believes are the most beautiful forms in nature. In her dream-like\, nearly abstract paintings\, Sung Eun Hong communicates her vision of what she calls “pure dreams and fantasy.”\n\nExhibit runs September 14 through November 15\, 2019 at the\n\nUniversity of Michigan Matthaei Botanical Gardens\, 1800 N. Dixboro Rd.\, Ann Arbor. Free.

DESCRIPTION:Refugees have been at the forefront of political discussion in the United States as the Syrian crisis escalates and xenophobia heightens.

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.

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:Performance:UMMA Pop Up: The Ann Arbor Guitar Trio
DESCRIPTION:The Ann Arbor Guitar Trio was founded on the idea that more guitar is better. Alex Anest formed the group with Evan Veasey and Adam Kahana in April 2016. All three musicians are talented\, creative players who have been performing and recording in the Ann Arbor area for years. With three guitars there are endless possibilities and the A2G3 looks to explore as many of them as they can. For their performance at UMMA\, the group has chosen compositions by Abby Clemens\, Alex Anest\, Janelle Reichman\, The Beach Boys\, and JS Bach. The repertoire was specifically selected to work with the reverberant nature of the museum's space. For more information and recent recordings\, visit https://annarborguitartrio.com/\n\n

SUMMARY:Performance:“Reflecting on the past...Reaching toward the future\, II” – an African American Music Conference Concert
DESCRIPTION:Performed by the Mark Lomax Quartet. \n\nThe program is both a performance of the suite from the 400\, a 12-album cycle that was released in January 2019\, and a discussion among the audience and the performers. The music and discussion explore Black America in pre-colonial Afrika\, the Ma’afa (the 400 years between 1619 and 2019)\, and Afro-futurism\, a vision of community strength and unity in the next 400 years. The purpose is to engage students\, faculty\, staff\, and artists in an experience that educates\, entertains\, and informs\, and also inspires and uplifts the human spirit through the power of music. The work was presented to a sold-out audience at the Lincoln Theatre in January 26\, 2019.\n\nThis performance will be livestreamed here: https://smtd.umich.edu/performances-events/live-stream-britton/

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:Nature a Moment: Visions of the World from Three Korean-American Artists
DESCRIPTION:Three Chicago-area Korean-American artists render deeply personal interpretations of the natural world in the exhibit “Nature a Moment” at Matthaei Botanical Gardens. Using woodcut\, painting on canvas\, and mixed media\, Linda Hyong\, Sung Eun Hong\, and Seong Ok Lee explore the world of flowers\, gardens\, and nature in vivid works that slow time to a fleeting present moment.\n\nLinda Hyong is a University of Michigan alumna and former teaching assistant in the U-M Stamps School of Art & Design. She draws her inspiration from Claude Monet’s water lily garden in France to create her own modern interpretation of impressionism. Seong Ok Lee is inspired by flowers\, which she believes are the most beautiful forms in nature. In her dream-like\, nearly abstract paintings\, Sung Eun Hong communicates her vision of what she calls “pure dreams and fantasy.”\n\nExhibit runs September 14 through November 15\, 2019 at the\n\nUniversity of Michigan Matthaei Botanical Gardens\, 1800 N. Dixboro Rd.\, Ann Arbor. Free.

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.

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: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:Other:Winter 2020 Term in Tübingen
DESCRIPTION:Beat the cold Michigan winters and study abroad somewhere else next year.  The Tübingen program\, which is organized through the Center for Global and Intercultural Studies (CGIS)\, takes place in the Winter term\, and it is intended for students who have completed at least German 221/231 by the end of the Fall 2019 term. \n\nThe German Department strongly recommends that you precede your stay in Tübingen by attending one or two four-week sessions at the Goethe Institut.  This Goethe Institut segment is not part of the CGIS program itself.  Please talk to one of German's academic advisors about the Goethe segment (germanadvising@umich.edu).\n\nThe CGIS portion in Tübingen will start early in March with a mandatory \"Kompaktkurs\" (6 credits) or a \"Startkurs\" (3 credits).  While you will be enrolled for the Winter 2020 term at the University of Michigan\, you will then take classes during \"Sommersemester\" at the Universität Tübingen (mid April - late July). You will earn 15-18 credits for Winter 2020: the courses that you take in Tübingen can be language courses for international students or regular university courses.  Various university courses outside the English Department are taught in English.\n\nTübingen credits can be used to satisfy degree requirements for a German major or minor.\n\nPlease note that you must attend a First Step session in order to study abroad with CGIS. During the Winter term\, First Step sessions are offered every Monday through Friday from 5-5:30 p.m. in Weiser Hall\, Suite 200.\n\nFor more information about the Tübingen program and to apply\, go to: https://mcompass.umich.edu/index.cfm?FuseAction=Programs.ViewProgram&Program_ID=10248

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:Collection Ensemble
DESCRIPTION:The reinstallation of UMMA’s Apse\, called “Collection Ensemble” highlights the breadth and variety of the Museum’s collection and juxtaposes works of art from different artists\, periods\, areas\, and media. The installation is organized around a very large photograph of a Baroque church by Candida Höfer. From this centerpiece\, the works of art are grouped in scenes or distinctive vignettes comprised of a broad mix of American\, European\, African\, and Asian art from across media. The reinstallation doesn’t adhere to either chronological or geographic boundaries. Curated by Vera Grant\, UMMA’s Deputy Director for Curatorial Affairs\, Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art. Of this installation\, she says: “The exhibition recasts the role of the collection as an active\, creative\, sometimes startling source of material and ideas\, open for debate and interpretation. The arrangements remind us that works of art can change in meaning and affect when placed in new contexts.” Join an docent to explore and interpret this exciting new project.\n\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:In Conversation: Copies and Multiplications in Buddhism
DESCRIPTION:The act of producing copies has a special meaning in Buddhism. From simply reciting and rewriting Buddha’s teachings to creating multiple images of sacred Buddhist figures\, objects and texts\, or the commissioning of one million pagodas\, copying served to increase karmic merit—​guaranteeing a better afterlife and eventually leading to enlightenment. In this conversation\, Kevin Carr\, Associate Professor of Japanese Art History at University of Michigan and specialist of Buddhist art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, UMMA Curator of Asian Art\, will illuminate the significance of copies in Buddhist religious practices\, and guide us through Buddhist art objects featured in the current UMMA exhibition Copies and Invention in East Asia. \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.

SUMMARY:Meeting:CURIS - Public Health Advocacy Open General Meeting
DESCRIPTION:CURIS - Public Health Advocacy is a student organization open to all U of M students (undergraduate\, graduate\, any major\, any discipline). We work to address a local public health issue by partnering with an organization in the Ann Arbor/Washtenaw County already partnering with the local people. They present current problems that they have and we take one problem and study it for the year to come up with ideas for solutions. This can look like research\, writing up policy briefs\, writing bills\, prepping a presentation\, etc. We also try to advocate for the certain public health issue that the organization supports at the U of M campus with health education. This year we are looking to partner with Shelter Association of Washtenaw County. We may look into the prevention of homelessness\, housing scarcity\, affordability\, stigma\, etc. We will also participate in the National Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week on U of M campus. If you are interested in joining and/or learning more feel free to stop by our General Open Meeting. Here we will share more about our organization\, the recruiting process\, and stimulate what a general meeting may look like.

SUMMARY:Performance:John McEuen & the String Wizards
DESCRIPTION:John McEuen brings with him 50+ years of worldwide performing with his banjo\, fiddle\, guitar\, and mandolin. Often referred to as the String Wizard\, he weaves stories of his travels and family life (he has raised seven kids)\, taking us through where his musical path has taken him. A Nitty Gritty Dirt Band founding member in 1966\, John initiated the 1972 classic \"Will the Circle Be Unbroken\" album\, (inducted in to the Library of Congress as ‘one of America’s most important recordings). Proud of being an integral part of America’s first band to go to Russia (28 sold-out shows in 1977!)\, John has a love of performing evident since his teenage Magic Shop days in Disneyland. With music from 1800s to now\, original songs laced with known hits\, (his current \"Made in Brooklyn\" album earned the Independent Music Award’s recognition as Best Americana album)\, and a special tribute to the ‘Circle’ album music and its stories\, John McEuen and his history come to life in an evening of acoustic music in overdrive.

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.

DESCRIPTION:This exhibit of Steve Wirtz’ sculptures features a selection of his Dynamic Football series and animal works. The Dynamic Football laminated paper works explore compositions of action\, allowing the artist to exploit the properties of the medium. The pieces are constructed by gluing many layers of paper over wire armatures. When dry\, the sculptures are painted in an often splashy\, sketchy style. Wirtz’ silly animal works are what the artist is best known for\, and they take shape in his Goetzville\, Michigan studio.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Corridor\, Floor 2\n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ваза: Copper & Brass Vessels
DESCRIPTION:Victoria (Vika) Bulgakova grew up in Ukraine\, a part of the former Soviet Union. She immigrated to the U.S. in 1994\, and for the next 22 years\, New York became her home. In 2016\, she moved to Michigan to pursue an MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art. She found the raw beauty of Detroit inspiring and kept her metalsmithing studio practice in the city. The copper and brass vessels in her Ваза series and other included works are a meditation on fluidity of memories: their ability to shift from reflection to re-invention over time. Each vessel potentially holds something within its boundaries\, whether tangible or not. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center North Lobby\, Floor 1\n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Other Crusoes\, Other Islands: Mapping a Complex Legacy
DESCRIPTION:On the 300th anniversary of the publication of The Life and Surprising Adventures of Robinson Crusoe\, of York\, Mariner\, this exhibit interrogates the troubled legacy of Daniel Defoe’s seminal English novel. It also explores how creators have pushed back against the colonialist\, hyper-masculine\, and racist ethos of the text by using the castaway narrative to explore self-sufficiency\, otherness\, and the role of gendered and racialized ideas in constructing the self.\n\nThis novel of shipwreck\, survival\, and rescue has become a cultural touchstone. Today\, many people who haven’t read the novel still feel familiar with key plot elements\, Robinson Crusoe\, and Friday. Yet\, there is less familiarity with how both the original text and many of the adaptations of Robinson Crusoe have fed into and reinforced narratives of imperialism and racism. Drawing on the Hubbard Collection of Imaginary Voyages - one of the world’s most comprehensive collections of editions\, translations\, adaptations\, and spin-offs of Robinson Crusoe - Other Crusoes\, Other Islands seeks to understand how readers and writers have engaged with the story since its initial publication in 1719.\n\nContent Advisory: Please be aware that some items in this exhibit feature racist imagery and potentially painful content. Although Robinson Crusoe is often treated as children’s literature and this exhibit includes children’s books and board games\, it is not an exhibit geared towards children and reflects the significant shifts over time in ideas about what is appropriate for children.

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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Nature a Moment: Visions of the World from Three Korean-American Artists
DESCRIPTION:Three Chicago-area Korean-American artists render deeply personal interpretations of the natural world in the exhibit “Nature a Moment” at Matthaei Botanical Gardens. Using woodcut\, painting on canvas\, and mixed media\, Linda Hyong\, Sung Eun Hong\, and Seong Ok Lee explore the world of flowers\, gardens\, and nature in vivid works that slow time to a fleeting present moment.\n\nLinda Hyong is a University of Michigan alumna and former teaching assistant in the U-M Stamps School of Art & Design. She draws her inspiration from Claude Monet’s water lily garden in France to create her own modern interpretation of impressionism. Seong Ok Lee is inspired by flowers\, which she believes are the most beautiful forms in nature. In her dream-like\, nearly abstract paintings\, Sung Eun Hong communicates her vision of what she calls “pure dreams and fantasy.”\n\nExhibit runs September 14 through November 15\, 2019 at the\n\nUniversity of Michigan Matthaei Botanical Gardens\, 1800 N. Dixboro Rd.\, Ann Arbor. Free.

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:Meeting:Town Hall on Faculty Ideology and Responsibility to Students
DESCRIPTION:Last fall\, U-M Provost Martin A. Philbert convened a Blue Ribbon Panel to offer recommendations on the question: “What ought to be the intersection between political thought/ideology and a faculty member’s responsibility to students?” The panel submitted their report to Provost Philbert in March 2019\, which included a Statement of Principal (p. 9) among its recommendations.\nThe purpose of this town hall meeting is to gather reactions to the principles articulated in the report as well as input on how these principles can best be operationalized. The event will begin with an overview of the report\, followed by table discussions led by graduate student peer facilitators.\nRackham seeks extensive student perspectives and contributions on this important topic. Students who are unable to attend the town hall are invited to submit anonymous\, confidential feedback through the following link: https://umich.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_bBdnASte2slsGjz.\nRegistration required at https://myumi.ch/2DB1B.\nWe want to ensure full and equitable participation in our events.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral & Experimental Economics (SBEE): Reconsidering Risk Aversion
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nMeasuring risk preferences is challenging because people’s\nchoices over lotteries violate expected-utility axioms and sometimes\nvary depending on how the lotteries are framed. We develop a two-stage\nprocedure to measure risk preferences\, and we demonstrate it via a\nsurvey about hypothetical retirement investment choices administered\nto 601 Cornell students. The first stage is the standard method of\neliciting choices over risky lotteries. In the second stage\, we\nconfront participants with their inconsistencies—their different\nresponses to choices framed differently that should be the same\naccording to expected-utility axioms—and allow them to update their\nchoices. Our key assumption is that individuals’ updated\, “reasoned”\nchoices more closely reflect their preferences than their original\,\n“untutored” choices. We find that on average\, participants update in\nthe direction of consistency with expected-utility axioms\, and their\nreasoned choices may exhibit less risk aversion than their untutored\nchoices. Our results suggest that deviations from the axioms may\ntypically reflect decision errors rather than non-expected-utility\npreferences. Our two-stage procedure may hold promise as a way to\nmeasure risk preferences for the purpose of setting optimal defaults\nor giving advice about portfolio allocation.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Understanding the Revolutionary  Changes in Businesses and Jobs
DESCRIPTION:We will examine the numerous ways that technology\, competition\, globalization\, and trade have affected American businesses and the nature of work. Some of the most iconic companies such as Eastman Kodak\, Bethlehem Steel\, and Westinghouse have gone bankrupt or disappeared\, while newer types of companies such as Amazon and Uber are ascending. In their heyday\, large corporations were integral to the growth of the middle class by offering lifetime employment and benefits. But today\, many traditional and new-age companies treat employees as contractors and they need fewer workers to achieve economic values comparable to businesses of the past. We will read and discuss “The Vanishing American Corporation” by U of M professor Gerald Davis. (OLLI members may remember his lecture last fall on the future of work). The author tracks the rise of the large corporation and then describes the economic\, social\, and technological developments that have led to its decline. He shows how these trends are leading to income inequality and social instability. Dr. Davis goes on to describe the future of business and how workers can navigate changing conditions. \n\nInstructor Gerry Lapidus contributed professionally to the emergence of the new tech world and has conducted over 50 OLLI book discussion classes. Please read through Section 2 for the first meeting.\n\nThis study group for those 50 and over will meet for two hours on Mondays from September 16 through October 21 (except on September 30)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Mechanical Engineering Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Part of the Mechanical Engineering Seminar Series\n\nSpencer H. Bryngelson\nSenior Postdoctoral Scholar\nCalifornia Institute of Technology\nWorking with Tim Colonius\n\nTuesday\, September 17\, 2019\n4:00 p.m.\n2147 GG Brown\n\nAbstract \nMulti-component flows play a central role in engineering problems ranging from the design of biomedical devices for therapy to naval and aircraft development. I will consider cellular\, cavitating\, and droplet flows as canonical examples of such flows. Each case is treated using novel computational techniques for simulation. This includes a sub-grid disperse flow model that is based upon particle population moments and improved via recurrent neural networks. The high-fidelity spectral and discretely-conservative interface-capturing methods used to solve for the flow will be discussed\, including a presentation of our new open-source solver\, MFC\, that implements them. These large-scale simulations are complemented by novel analyses based-upon non-modal stability theory\, chaotic dynamical systems\, and stochastic and data-driven techniques. These are interpreted as they apply to microfluidics\, rheometry\, and even feeding humpback whales.\n\nBio \nDr. Spencer Bryngelson is a Senior Postdoctoral Scholar at the California Institute of Technology\, working with Professor Tim Colonius. Previously\, he was a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Center for Exascale Simulation of Plasma-Coupled Combustion (XPACC)\, a PSAAP II center. He received his PhD and MS in Theoretical and Applied Mechanics from the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign in 2017 and 2015\, respectively\, working with Professor Jonathan Freund. In 2013\, he obtained BS degrees in both Mechanical Engineering and Engineering Mathematics from the University of Michigan–Dearborn. His research lives at the intersection of fluid dynamics and computational physics\, with a focus on biomedical\, defense\, and environmental applications. In pursuit of this\, he develops high-performance software\, physical models\, numerical methods\, and techniques for physics-based and data-driven analysis

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Public Finance: Third-party Audit and Tax Compliance  -- Evidence from a Notched Policy in India
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nCan resource-constrained tax administrations rely on third-party auditors to increase compliance? We investigate the reaction of firms to a notched policy where they must hire private auditors after crossing a revenue threshold as specified in the Indian tax law. We develop a novel framework to assess the impact of a notched-policy on variables other than the running variable\, where static bunching analysis may be biased. Our difference-in-differences estimates suggest that firms remit 15 percent higher taxes and report 12 percent higher taxable income once they are subject to third-party audit. The effect is heterogeneous\, with firms reporting higher tax if they generate a substantial paper-trail and have lower labor costs. Finally\, extending the policy to smaller firms can result in higher aggregate welfare.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IOE 813 Seminar: Shuai Huang\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:The data-rich environments in healthcare and ubiquitous use of smartphones hold great promises to accelerate the paradigm transition of U.S. healthcare from reactive care to preventive care. One question is how we could translate the disease data into better care management of patients through an emerging ecosystem of healthcare apps\, made possible by smartphones now considered as medical devices. It is known that many diseases manifest complex progression process\, involving both temporal dynamics and spatial evolution that could be captured by a rich array of sensors in a smartphone. How could we model\, monitor\, and modify these processes are challenging problems. For example\, diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease and Type 1 Diabetes share the commonality that they involve slow and predictable progression processes. Knowing how a disease progresses is helpful\, particularly if we’d like to prevent the disease as early as we could for maximum therapeutic efficacy and improved quality of life. The modeling of the progression process is statistically challenging given the high-dimensionality of the data\, the mixed types variables\, and the data’s longitudinal nature. Another commonality of these diseases is that\, since they are chronic conditions\, being able to recognize subtle symptoms that indicate significant clinical events or suggest worse outcomes is crucial for preventative care. Further\, patients need to be dynamically prioritized by their projected risk for resource allocation optimization. This needs robust models that build on the statistical knowledge provided by disease modeling and monitoring\, to guide the selection of high-risk patients for targeted care. In this talk\, I will share some of our works to tackle these challenges by developing novel models and algorithms to provide data-driven decision-making capabilities for better disease management implemented through smartphone apps.\n\nDr. Shuai Huang is an Associate Professor at the Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering at the University of Washington. He received a B.S. degree on Statistics from the School of Gifted Young at the University of Science and Technology of China in 2007 and a Ph.D. degree on Industrial Engineering from the Arizona State University in 2012. He is also an adjunct faculty member at the Department of Biomedical Informatics and Medical Education (BIME) and the Integrated Brain Imaging Center (IBIC) at the University of Washington. Dr. Huang develops methodologies for modeling\, monitoring\, diagnosis\, and prognosis of complex networked systems such as the brain connectivity networks and disease progression process that have multiple stages and pathways. He also develops statistical and data mining models to integrate massive and heterogeneous datasets such as neuroimaging\, genomics\, proteomics\, laboratory tests\, demographics\, and clinical variables\, for facilitating scientific discoveries in biomedical research and better decision-makings in clinical practices. His research is funded by the National Science Foundation\, Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)\, Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF)\, Helmsley Foundation\, NIH\, and several biomedical research institutes. Dr. Huang currently serves as Associate Editor for the IIE Transactions in Healthcare Systems Engineering and Quality Technology and Quantitative Management.

Remember\, this meeting is on the Diag and at 7pm.

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.

DESCRIPTION:This exhibit of Steve Wirtz’ sculptures features a selection of his Dynamic Football series and animal works.

The pieces are constructed by gluing many layers of paper over wire armatures. When dry\, the sculptures are painted in an often splashy\, sketchy style. Wirtz’ silly animal works are what the artist is best known for\, and they take shape in his Goetzville\, Michigan studio.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Corridor\, Floor 2\n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ваза: Copper & Brass Vessels
DESCRIPTION:Victoria (Vika) Bulgakova grew up in Ukraine\, a part of the former Soviet Union. She immigrated to the U.S. in 1994\, and for the next 22 years\, New York became her home. In 2016\, she moved to Michigan to pursue an MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art. She found the raw beauty of Detroit inspiring and kept her metalsmithing studio practice in the city. The copper and brass vessels in her Ваза series and other included works are a meditation on fluidity of memories: their ability to shift from reflection to re-invention over time. Each vessel potentially holds something within its boundaries\, whether tangible or not. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center North Lobby\, Floor 1\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:Exhibition:Other Crusoes\, Other Islands: Mapping a Complex Legacy
DESCRIPTION:On the 300th anniversary of the publication of The Life and Surprising Adventures of Robinson Crusoe\, of York\, Mariner\, this exhibit interrogates the troubled legacy of Daniel Defoe’s seminal English novel. It also explores how creators have pushed back against the colonialist\, hyper-masculine\, and racist ethos of the text by using the castaway narrative to explore self-sufficiency\, otherness\, and the role of gendered and racialized ideas in constructing the self.\n\nThis novel of shipwreck\, survival\, and rescue has become a cultural touchstone. Today\, many people who haven’t read the novel still feel familiar with key plot elements\, Robinson Crusoe\, and Friday. Yet\, there is less familiarity with how both the original text and many of the adaptations of Robinson Crusoe have fed into and reinforced narratives of imperialism and racism. Drawing on the Hubbard Collection of Imaginary Voyages - one of the world’s most comprehensive collections of editions\, translations\, adaptations\, and spin-offs of Robinson Crusoe - Other Crusoes\, Other Islands seeks to understand how readers and writers have engaged with the story since its initial publication in 1719.\n\nContent Advisory: Please be aware that some items in this exhibit feature racist imagery and potentially painful content. Although Robinson Crusoe is often treated as children’s literature and this exhibit includes children’s books and board games\, it is not an exhibit geared towards children and reflects the significant shifts over time in ideas about what is appropriate for children.

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:Nature a Moment: Visions of the World from Three Korean-American Artists
DESCRIPTION:Three Chicago-area Korean-American artists render deeply personal interpretations of the natural world in the exhibit “Nature a Moment” at Matthaei Botanical Gardens. Using woodcut\, painting on canvas\, and mixed media\, Linda Hyong\, Sung Eun Hong\, and Seong Ok Lee explore the world of flowers\, gardens\, and nature in vivid works that slow time to a fleeting present moment.\n\nLinda Hyong is a University of Michigan alumna and former teaching assistant in the U-M Stamps School of Art & Design. She draws her inspiration from Claude Monet’s water lily garden in France to create her own modern interpretation of impressionism. Seong Ok Lee is inspired by flowers\, which she believes are the most beautiful forms in nature. In her dream-like\, nearly abstract paintings\, Sung Eun Hong communicates her vision of what she calls “pure dreams and fantasy.”\n\nExhibit runs September 14 through November 15\, 2019 at the\n\nUniversity of Michigan Matthaei Botanical Gardens\, 1800 N. Dixboro Rd.\, Ann Arbor. Free.

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:Careers / Jobs:Boston Teacher Residency Info Session -- Education for Social Justice
DESCRIPTION:Boston Teacher Residency\, an AmeriCorps program\, is a nationally recognized clinical teacher preparation program whose graduates support student achievement from day one and who stay in teaching\, continuing to refine and improve their practice.\n\nCreated in 2002 as a joint initiative between the Boston Public Schools and Boston Plan for Excellence\, wedesigned BTR to meet the evolving needs of Boston’s children and families\, and we have since prepared a diverse group of over 700 teachers in high need areas.\n\nToo often in teacher preparation\, novices are taught primarily through coursework\, and assessed primarily through course grades.While strong and relevant coursework is absolutely necessary\, it is not sufficient to ensure that a new teacher gains the ability to support the learning of 30 students. We’ve proven that teacher candidates are better prepared and more effective when they put their new knowledge into practice and build upon new skills throughout their year of training.\n\nModeled after medical residencies\, teacher residencies immerse candidates in the immensely complex field of teaching\, learning with and from experienced mentors. The BTR faculty teach residents’ courses\, coach them in their school settings\, and hold them accountable for their students’ learning.

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:Workshop / Seminar:Design principles for organization and self-assembly far from equilibrium
DESCRIPTION:Non-equilibrium thermodynamics provides a useful set of tools to analyze and constrain the behavior of far from equilibrium systems. However\, these tools have not yet been broadly applied to aid in the control of many body systems and materials assembled far from equilibrium. In this talk\, I will report an application of ideas from non-equilibrium thermodynamics to the problems related to morphological changes in membranes\, non-equilibrium self-assembly and more broadly control of material properties far from equilibrium. In many of these contexts\, I will show how the material properties can be substantially constrained (and even predicted) using tools from non-equilibrium thermodynamics.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Biopsychology Colloquium:
DESCRIPTION:Psychosocial Mechanisms of Dementia Inequalities\n\nAbstract: In the United States\, the incidence of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is higher among certain racial and ethnic minority groups\, even after controlling for socioeconomic status and vascular disease. Persistent and unexplained disparities suggest: (1) known AD risk factors exhibit differential impact across race/ethnicity and/or (2) novel risk factors for AD exist for racial and ethnic minorities. I will present data from multiple longitudinal studies of cognitive aging that support each of these possibilities.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:ChE Seminar Series: Heather Kulik
DESCRIPTION:>This Seminar will be held in the North Campus Research Complex\, Building 32\, Auditorium\n\n“Accelerating the computational discovery of catalyst design  rules and exceptions with machine learning ”\n\nABSTRACT\n\nOver the past decade\, first-principles computation has emerged as a powerful complement to experiment in the discovery of new catalysts and materials. In many cases\, computation has excelled most in distilling rules for catalyst structure-property relationships in well defined spaces such as bulk metals into descriptors or linear free energy relationships. More development is needed of computational tools for them to show the same promise in emerging catalytic materials such as single-site metal-organic framework catalysts or single atom catalysts that have increased promise of atom economy and selectivity. In this talk\, I will outline our efforts to accelerate first-principles (i.e.\, with density functional theory\, or DFT) screening of open-shell transition metal catalysts with a focus on challenging reactions (e.g.\, selective partial hydrocarbon oxidation). We have developed tools that not only automate simulation but can be autonomously driven by decision engines that predict which simulations are most promising to be carried out. We also develop neural network machine learning models to accelerate prediction of catalyst reaction energetics and properties at a fraction of the cost of DFT. Paired with new estimates of when such models are reliable\, I will show how we rapidly evaluate properties of 10k-100k catalysts in a fraction of the time that conventional first-principles simulation would require. We use such tools to accelerate the identification of design rules and exceptions to expectations when applied to the wider space of emerging single-atom and single-site catalysts. \n\nSHORT BIO\n\nProfessor Heather J. Kulik is an Associate Professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering at MIT. She received her B.E. in Chemical Engineering from the Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art in 2004 and her Ph.D. from the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at MIT in 2009. She completed postdoctoral training at Lawrence Livermore and Stanford\, prior to joining MIT as a faculty member in November 2013. Her research in accelerating computational modeling in inorganic chemistry and catalysis has been recognized by a Burroughs Wellcome Fund Career Award at the Scientific Interface\, Office of Naval Research Young Investigator Award\, DARPA Young Faculty Award\, NSF CAREER Award\,  the AAAS Marion Milligan Mason Award\, and the Journal of Physical Chemistry Lectureship\, among other awards.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Controlling Light Matter Interactions in Layered Materials with Conventional and Topological Band Structures
DESCRIPTION:Strongly confined electrical\, optical and thermal excitations drastically modify material's properties and break local symmetries that can enable precisely tunable responses and new functionalities. We will discuss the effect of engineered plasmonic lattice on light matter interactions in 2D excitonic crystals to produce novel responses such as enhanced and tunable emission\, Fano resonances and strong exciton-plasmon polaritons\, which can be precisely controlled by geometry and applied fields to produce new device concepts. Our recent work on collective polaritonic modes and the formation of a complete polaritonic bandgap in few-layered excitonic semiconductors coupled to plasmons will also be presented along with our ability to control them via externally applied electric fields.\n\nWe will also discuss our efforts to explore the optoelectronic properties of Mo_x W_{1-x} Te_2\, which are type-II Weyl semimetals\, i.e.\, gapless topological states of matter with broken inversion and/or time reversal symmetry\, which exhibit unconventional responses to externally applied fields. We have observed spatially dispersive circular photogalvanic effect (s-CPGE) over a wide spectral region (0.2 - 2.0 eV range) in these materials. This effect shows exclusively in the Weyl phase and vanishes upon temperature induced topological phase change. Since the photon energy leads to interband transitions between different electronic bands\, we use the density matrix formalism to describe the photocurrent response under chiral optical excitation with a spatially inhomogeneous beam. We will discuss how spatially inhomogeneous optical excitation and unique symmetry and band structure of Weyl semimetals produces CPGE in these systems. The effect of band inversion\, Berry curvature and asymmetric carrier relaxation in this material system on the s-CPGE signal will also be discussed along with the implications for designing new and unconventional optoelectronic devices.\n\nShort Biography:\nRitesh Agarwal is a Professor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at the University of Pennsylvania.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:DAAS Africa Workshop: Beauty Diplomacy: Embodying an Emerging Nation.
DESCRIPTION:Beauty pageants are big business in Nigeria. Drawing from ethnographic fieldwork\, in-depth interviews\, and discursive analysis of print and visual material\, this talk examines how Nigerian beauty contests are transformed by multiple stakeholders into contested vehicles for promoting complex ideas about gender and power\, ethnicity and belonging\, and a rapidly changing articulation of Nigerian nationhood. I theorize beauty diplomacy as a tactic used to redeem Nigeria's poor reputation\, by positioning beauty contestants - young\, upwardly mobile\, and ambitious women - as the aesthetic center of an ethnically diverse nation and the public face of a country on the economic rise.\n​

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Donia Human Rights Center Lecture. Rights Make Might: Global Human Rights and Minority Social Movements in Japan
DESCRIPTION:Why have the three most salient minority groups in Japan - the politically dormant Ainu\, the active but unsuccessful Koreans\, and the former outcaste group of Burakumin - all expanded their activism since the late 1970s despite the unfavorable domestic political environment? My investigation into the history of the three groups finds an answer in the galvanizing effects of global human rights on local social movements. Drawing on interviews and archival data\, I document the transformative impact of global human rights ideas and institutions on minority activists\, which changed the prevalent understanding about their standing in Japanese society and propelled them to new international venues for political claim making. The global forces also changed the public perception and political calculus in Japan over time\, catalyzing substantial gains for the minority movements. Having benefited from global human rights\, all three groups repaid their debt by contributing to the consolidation and expansion of international human rights principles and instruments. The in-depth historical comparative analysis offers rare windows into local\, micro-level impact of global human rights and contributes to our understanding of international norms and institutions\, social movements\, human rights\, ethnoracial politics\, and Japanese society. \n    \nKiyoteru Tsutsui is Professor of Sociology\, Director of the Donia Human Rights Center\, and Director of the Center for Japanese Studies at the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor. His research on globalization of human rights and its impact on local politics has appeared in American Sociological Review\, American Journal of Sociology\, Social Forces\, Social Problems\, Journal of Peace Research\, Journal of Conflict Resolution\, and other social science journals. His book publications include \"Rights Make Might: Global Human Rights and Minority Social Movements in Japan\" (Oxford University Press 2018)\, and a co-edited volume (with Alwyn Lim) \"Corporate Social Responsibility in a Globalizing World\" (Cambridge University Press 2015). He has been a recipient of National Endowment for the Humanities Fellowship\, National Science Foundation grants\, the SSRC/CGP Abe Fellowship\, Stanford Japan Studies Postdoctoral Fellowship\, and other grants as well as awards from American Sociological Association sections on Global and Transnational Sociology (2010\, 2013\, 2019)\, Human Rights (2017\, 2019)\, Asia and Asian America (2018\, 2019)\, Collective Behavior and Social Movements (2018)\, and Political Sociology (2019).   \n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please contact us at umichhumanrights@umich.edu\, we'd be happy to help.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Mechanical Engineering Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Part of the Mechanical Engineering Seminar Series\n\nSpencer H. Bryngelson\nSenior Postdoctoral Scholar\nCalifornia Institute of Technology\nWorking with Tim Colonius\n\nTuesday\, September 17\, 2019\n4:00 p.m.\n2147 GG Brown\n\nAbstract \nMulti-component flows play a central role in engineering problems ranging from the design of biomedical devices for therapy to naval and aircraft development. I will consider cellular\, cavitating\, and droplet flows as canonical examples of such flows. Each case is treated using novel computational techniques for simulation. This includes a sub-grid disperse flow model that is based upon particle population moments and improved via recurrent neural networks. The high-fidelity spectral and discretely-conservative interface-capturing methods used to solve for the flow will be discussed\, including a presentation of our new open-source solver\, MFC\, that implements them. These large-scale simulations are complemented by novel analyses based-upon non-modal stability theory\, chaotic dynamical systems\, and stochastic and data-driven techniques. These are interpreted as they apply to microfluidics\, rheometry\, and even feeding humpback whales.\n\nBio \nDr. Spencer Bryngelson is a Senior Postdoctoral Scholar at the California Institute of Technology\, working with Professor Tim Colonius. Previously\, he was a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Center for Exascale Simulation of Plasma-Coupled Combustion (XPACC)\, a PSAAP II center. He received his PhD and MS in Theoretical and Applied Mechanics from the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign in 2017 and 2015\, respectively\, working with Professor Jonathan Freund. In 2013\, he obtained BS degrees in both Mechanical Engineering and Engineering Mathematics from the University of Michigan–Dearborn. His research lives at the intersection of fluid dynamics and computational physics\, with a focus on biomedical\, defense\, and environmental applications. In pursuit of this\, he develops high-performance software\, physical models\, numerical methods\, and techniques for physics-based and data-driven analysis

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Seminar Series: Mohamad Kazem Shirani Faradonbeh\, Postdoctoral Researcher\, University of Florida
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nVector Auto-Regressive (VAR) models are widely used in different applications ranged from econometrics to engineering. The problem of learning the unstable transition matrix of the model is of interest\, e.g. for forecasting hyperinflation episodes and stock market bubbles. Especially\, a non-asymptotic analysis is required for specifying the roles of sample size\, problem dimension\, innovation (noise) distribution\, and key characteristics of the underlying data generation mechanisms.\n\nIn this setting\, the Gram matrix of the observed variables randomly diverges\, wildly explodes\, and is dramatically ill-conditioned. So\, the existing approaches based on concentration or mixing time-series are inapplicable. Also importantly\, recent studies discovered a new condition for explosive processes that is necessary for accurate learning\; being called \"regularity\" of the transition matrix. In this talk\, we present the first set of finite-sample results for the least-squares estimates of the unstable time series with heavy-tailed innovations\, and fully quantify the regularity. We also mention novel approaches for studying the \"anti-concentration\" properties of the underlying random matrices\, being used to obtain the presented results.\n\nFurther discussions consist of learning the unknown model for planning purposes. That is\, designing data-driven input signals which can stabilize the time series\, while matrices encoding the evolution of the process and the influence of the input signals\, are unknown. The first algorithm for fast stabilization under uncertainty is introduced\, with theoretical performance guarantees being established. In order to ensure consistency of estimation\, the proposed procedure utilizes two methods of employing random matrices in the design of the exogenous inputs\; (i) stochastic feedback\, and (ii) stochastic parameter. Numerical examples indicating the effects of both the magnitude and the frequency of the randomizations are provided.\n\nBio:\nMohamad Kazem Shirani Faradonbeh\nis currently a Post-Doctoral Research Associate with the Informatics Institute and the Department of Statistics\nat the University of Florida. He received the Ph.D. degree in Statistics from the University of Michigan in 2017\, under the supervision of Ambuj Tewari and George Michailidis. Before that\, he was an undergraduate student in the Department of Electrical Engineering\, Sharif University of Technology. His research interests include sequential statistical analysis\, reinforcement learning\, data-driven intelligent tutoring\, and control of network systems.

Malcolm and Martin were as different as could be on paper\, but both dedicated their lives to the Civil Rights Movement\, the major societal issue of their time. Tackling this issue from different angles\, the two found themselves forming a profound partnership to move US society toward equality and justice. How can we forge such powerful ties in our modern context to continue to push US society to epitomize its ideals?

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:Civitates Orbis Terrarum: Braun & Hogenberg’s Evolving World
DESCRIPTION:Civitates Orbis Terrarum (Cities of the World)\, the first standardized city atlas\, contains over 540 maps and views between its six volumes. First published in 1572 by Georg Braun (1541-1622) and Frans Hogenberg (1535-1590)\, Civitates was first intended as a companion to Ortelius’s Theatrum Orbis Terrarum. New editions of the city atlas continued to be printed through 1617. Hogenberg\, one of the most prolific engravers of the time\, was joined by many other engravers in creating the Civitates. Braun edited the work and provided the descriptions of the cities on the verso of each plate. This exhibit contains 18 works from the Civitates\, including many from the Clark Library’s holdings. Also included are reproductions of large panoramas Amsterdam\, London\, and St. Petersburg that reflect the evolution of city mapping through the 17th and 18th centuries.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Football & Pets: Paper Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit of Steve Wirtz’ sculptures features a selection of his Dynamic Football series and animal works. The Dynamic Football laminated paper works explore compositions of action\, allowing the artist to exploit the properties of the medium. The pieces are constructed by gluing many layers of paper over wire armatures. When dry\, the sculptures are painted in an often splashy\, sketchy style. Wirtz’ silly animal works are what the artist is best known for\, and they take shape in his Goetzville\, Michigan studio.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Corridor\, Floor 2\n1500 E.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ваза: Copper & Brass Vessels
DESCRIPTION:Victoria (Vika) Bulgakova grew up in Ukraine\, a part of the former Soviet Union. She immigrated to the U.S. in 1994\, and for the next 22 years\, New York became her home. In 2016\, she moved to Michigan to pursue an MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art. She found the raw beauty of Detroit inspiring and kept her metalsmithing studio practice in the city. The copper and brass vessels in her Ваза series and other included works are a meditation on fluidity of memories: their ability to shift from reflection to re-invention over time. Each vessel potentially holds something within its boundaries\, whether tangible or not. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center North Lobby\, Floor 1\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:Exhibition:Other Crusoes\, Other Islands: Mapping a Complex Legacy
DESCRIPTION:On the 300th anniversary of the publication of The Life and Surprising Adventures of Robinson Crusoe\, of York\, Mariner\, this exhibit interrogates the troubled legacy of Daniel Defoe’s seminal English novel. It also explores how creators have pushed back against the colonialist\, hyper-masculine\, and racist ethos of the text by using the castaway narrative to explore self-sufficiency\, otherness\, and the role of gendered and racialized ideas in constructing the self.\n\nThis novel of shipwreck\, survival\, and rescue has become a cultural touchstone. Today\, many people who haven’t read the novel still feel familiar with key plot elements\, Robinson Crusoe\, and Friday. Yet\, there is less familiarity with how both the original text and many of the adaptations of Robinson Crusoe have fed into and reinforced narratives of imperialism and racism. Drawing on the Hubbard Collection of Imaginary Voyages - one of the world’s most comprehensive collections of editions\, translations\, adaptations\, and spin-offs of Robinson Crusoe - Other Crusoes\, Other Islands seeks to understand how readers and writers have engaged with the story since its initial publication in 1719.\n\nContent Advisory: Please be aware that some items in this exhibit feature racist imagery and potentially painful content. Although Robinson Crusoe is often treated as children’s literature and this exhibit includes children’s books and board games\, it is not an exhibit geared towards children and reflects the significant shifts over time in ideas about what is appropriate for children.

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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Nature a Moment: Visions of the World from Three Korean-American Artists
DESCRIPTION:Three Chicago-area Korean-American artists render deeply personal interpretations of the natural world in the exhibit “Nature a Moment” at Matthaei Botanical Gardens. Using woodcut\, painting on canvas\, and mixed media\, Linda Hyong\, Sung Eun Hong\, and Seong Ok Lee explore the world of flowers\, gardens\, and nature in vivid works that slow time to a fleeting present moment.\n\nLinda Hyong is a University of Michigan alumna and former teaching assistant in the U-M Stamps School of Art & Design. She draws her inspiration from Claude Monet’s water lily garden in France to create her own modern interpretation of impressionism. Seong Ok Lee is inspired by flowers\, which she believes are the most beautiful forms in nature. In her dream-like\, nearly abstract paintings\, Sung Eun Hong communicates her vision of what she calls “pure dreams and fantasy.”\n\nExhibit runs September 14 through November 15\, 2019 at the\n\nUniversity of Michigan Matthaei Botanical Gardens\, 1800 N.

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:Lecture / Discussion:HET Brown Bag Seminars | Wilson line dressings as carriers of asymptotic symmetry charges
DESCRIPTION:It is known that for a gauge-invariant formulation of QED and gravity\, one should dress particles with Wilson lines stretching out to infinity. When considering asymptotic particles of scattering processes\, such dressed particle states reduce to the infrared-finite states of Faddeev and Kulish. In quantum field theories in flat spacetime\, the dressings of asymptotic states are known to carry a definite leading soft charge of the asymptotic symmetry\, which can be interpreted as soft hair at infinity. Some recent attempts to extend this to subleading order will be briefly mentioned. We explore how this analysis can be extended to curved spacetimes with boundary\, in particular\, the Rindler and Schwarzschild spacetimes. More specifically\, we will show that infalling dressed matter on the future Rindler and Schwarzschild horizons implant soft horizon hair.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Social Area Brown Bag Talk: White Identity Threats and Motivated Avoidance of Information about Race
DESCRIPTION:White Americans are increasingly aware of how their racial identity is implicated in racism. Although many White people have anti-racist attitudes and endorse the belief that White people are culpable for racism\, their identities can still be threatened when they encounter information about racism. Although decades of research indicate that people strongly prefer information that affirms their prior attitudes\, it is less clear what happens when the information also threatens their identity. This talk will explore the impact of identity threats in motivated information selection among White Americans. I will present new data suggesting that identity threats\, and not just attitudes\, motivate Whites to avoid information about racism. I posit that testing the attitudinal and identity-based motivations in tandem helps to advance theory on attitudes and intergroup processes and shed light on contemporary racial-political divides.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Murder Most Foul: Homicide in Early America
DESCRIPTION:In the summer of 2012 the William L. Clements Library at the University of Michigan mounted an exhibition of primary sources on murder in America from the 1670s to 1900. Clements Director J. Kevin Graffagnino’s PowerPoint presentation of murder books\, pamphlets\, serials\, prints\, photographs\, and ephemera illustrates the ways our ancestors dealt with murder as vehicle for moral instruction\, basis for social attitudes and legal policy\, and source of guilty-pleasure titillation. Given the enduring popularity of crime and punishment for America readers\, collectors\, and researchers\, this lecture for those 50 and over should appeal to scholarly and popular audiences alike. Instructor J. Kevin Graffagnino has been Director of the University of Michigan’s William L. Clements Library since 2008 and will be retiring after 11 years at the end of December.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MIPSE Seminar | Simulation-Guided Design of a MegaJoule Dense Plasma Focus
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nA dense plasma focus (DPF) is a relatively compact coaxial plasma gun which completes its discharge as a Z-pinch. These devices have been designed to operate at a variety of scales in to produce short (<100 ns) pulses of ions\, X-rays\, or neutrons. LLNL has recently constructed and brought into operation a new device\, the MJOLNIR (MegaJouLe Neutron Imaging Radiography) DPF which is designed for radiography and high yield operations. This device has been commissioned over the last year and has achieved neutron yields up to 9x10^11 neutrons/pulse at 2.2 MA pinch current while operating at up to 1 MJ of stored energy. MJOLNIR is equipped with a wide range of diagnostics\, including activation foils\, neutron time of flight detectors\, a fast framing camera\, optical light gates\, and a time-gated neutron and x-ray imager. LLNL also runs unique particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations of DPF in the Chicago code\, and has been able to gain significant insight into the physical factors that influence neutron yield. To that end\, MJOLNIR is one of the first DPFs whose design and continual upgrades are heavily influenced by predictive modeling. In this presentation\, we will describe insights from modeling\, device operation\, and recent results. Preliminary x-ray and neutron images will also be presented.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nDr. Andrea Schmidt is group leader of the Plasma Engineering Group and Associate Program Lead for Pulsed Power Fusion Plasmas at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL). She received her Ph.D. in Physics from MIT and her BS in Physics from the U. of California/Berkeley. She joined LLNL as a postdoctoral researcher in 2011 and joined the staff in 2013. As a postdoc\, Schmidt was involved in electrical grid research\, and modeling the dense plasma focus (DPF) device. She performed the first kinetic modeling of a DPF\, demonstrating that a particle approach was needed to capture beam formation and neutron yield. She is now leading several projects in DPF research including the development of a large MJ-class DPF experiment built for flash neutron radiography. Schmidt also led modeling and experimental efforts for magnetron sputtering and was part of a team investigating a shear-flow-stabilized z-pinch configuration for controlled fusion.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Chinese Railroad Workers\, The Transcontinental\, and the Making of Modern America
DESCRIPTION:This year is the 150th anniversary of the completion of the first transcontinental railroad line. At Promontory Summit\, Utah on May 10\, 1869\, the Central Pacific and Union Pacific Railroad lines celebrated the spanning of the country with iron. Hailed ever since as a signal development in post-Civil War America\, the story of the transcontinental is often romanticized and celebrated as a national triumph. Relegated to the margins or even erased altogether from many accounts\, Chinese railroad workers were actually central to the effort. Chang’s historical recovery returns these workers to the center of the narrative. His lecture will consider historiography\, the methodological challenge of writing history without traditional documentation\, and the place of this history in the rise of modern America.\n\n\nGordon H. Chang is professor of history\, Olive H. Palmer Professor in the Humanities\, and the Senior Associate Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education at Stanford University.  He studies the histories of America-China relations\, U.S. diplomacy\, and Asian American history. Among his publications are Friends and Enemies: The United States\, China\, and the Soviet Union\, 1948-1972\; Morning Glory\, Evening Shadow: Yamato Ichihashi and His Internment Writing\, 1942-1945\; Asian Americans and Politics: Perspectives\, Experiences\, Prospects\; editor with Judy Yung and H.M Lai\, Chinese American Voices: From the Gold Rush to the Present\; editor with Mark Johnson and Paul Karlstrom\, Asian American Art: A History\, 1850-1970\; and Fateful Ties: A History of America’s Preoccupation with China. He has been a Guggenheim and ACLS Fellow.\n\nHe currently co-directs the Chinese Railroad Workers in North America Project at Stanford and has published two books this year:  The Chinese and the Iron Road: Building the Transcontinental (editor with Shelley Fisher Fishkin) and Ghosts of Gold Mountain: The Epic Story of the Chinese Who Built the Transcontinental.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium |  Advancing CMB Cosmology: ACTPol\, Simons Observatory\, and CMB-S4
DESCRIPTION:Measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) are a powerful probe of the origin\, contents\, and evolution of our Universe.  CMB measurements continue to improve according to a Moore’s law under which the mapping speed of experiments improves by an order of magnitude roughly every five years.  This rapid progression in our ability to measure the CMB has translated into a series of scientific advances including showing our universe to be spatially flat\, constraining inflationary and alternative theories of the primordial universe\, and providing a cornerstone for our precision knowledge of the Lambda-CDM model.   Observations with the current generation of experiments\, including Advanced ACTPol\, will soon produce improved cosmological constraints.  Building on this work\, in the coming decade Simons Observatory and ultimately CMB-S4 will: pass critical thresholds in constraints on inflation and light relativistic species\; provide improved measurements of dark energy\, dark matter\,  neutrino masses\, and a variety of astrophysical phenomena\; and enable searches for new surprises.   \n\nIn this talk I present the design and status of measurements with Advanced ACTPol and how we are building on this work to realize the next generations of experiments including Simons Observatory and CMB-S4.  I will highlight the technological advances that underlie the rapid progress in measurements including: polarization sensitive detectors which simultaneously observe in multiple colors\; metamaterial antireflection coated lenses and polarization modulators\; and overall advances in experimental design.  I will present preliminary new results from ACTPol and conclude with science forecasts for the coming decade.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:For Dear Life: Women's Decriminalization and Human Rights in Focus
DESCRIPTION:\"For Dear Life\" (U. Michigan Press\, 2019) chronicles feminist and artist Carol Jacobsen’s deep commitment to the causes of justice and human rights. Jacobsen’s tireless work with and for women prisoners is charted in this rich assemblage of images and texts that reveal the collective strategies she and the prisoners have employed to receive justice. The book gives evidence that women’s lawbreaking is often an effort to survive gender-based violence. The faces\, letters\, and testimonies of dozens of incarcerated women with whom Jacobsen has worked present a visceral yet politicized chorus of voices against the criminal-legal systems that fail us all. Their voices are joined by those of leading feminist scholars in essays that illuminate the arduous methods of dissent that Jacobsen and the others have employed to win freedom for more than a dozen women sentenced to life imprisonment\, and to free many more from torturous prison conditions.\n\nThis conversation will focus a critical lens on an American criminal-legal regime that imparts racist\, gendered\, and classist modes of punishment to women lawbreakers.\n\nBook sales provided by University of Michigan Press.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Make It Stick: Research-Based Learning Strategies You Need to Know
DESCRIPTION:The study and learning strategies students often bring to college are often insufficient to help them succeed at the university level.  Particularly in challenging STEM courses\, students can't simply memorize or cram their way to a good grade. This workshop will focus on the popular learning strategies to avoid\, as well as the top three strategies you don't know but are shown by research to be the most effective for long-term learning.\n\nRegistration Link: http://ttc.iss.lsa.umich.edu/undergrad/sessions/make-it-stick-research-based-learning-strategies-you-need-to-know-science-success-series/

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:ASP Roundtable | Pluricentric Armenian in a Diasporic Context: Reflections on Second Dialect Acquisition
DESCRIPTION:Roundtable Participants: Shushan Karapetian\, Deputy Director of the Institute of Armenian Studies\, University of Southern California\; Tamar Boyadjian\, Associate Professor of Medieval Literature\, Michigan State University\; and Vahe Sahakyan\, Research Scholar\, Senior Information Resources Specialist\, U-M - Dearborn\n\nLos Angeles\, as an epicenter of the Armenian diaspora\, nourishes a dynamic community of Armenian language speakers and learners. Consequently\, the city accounts for a robust enrollment in Armenian day schools and language classes at the college level. The Armenian community is uniquely heterogeneous\, differing in terms of country of origin\, time of immigration\, socioeconomic status\, and linguistic standard or dialect. A significant demographic shift has been the recent increase in the number of speakers of Eastern Armenian\, resulting in higher enrollments of Eastern Armenian students in day schools. In this context\, the Eastern Armenian student faces a unique situation\, as Western Armenian functions as the primary language of instruction for the Armenian curriculum in Los Angeles Armenian schools. \n    \nThis presentation examines the experience of a growing number of heritage language speakers\, for whom the home variant of the heritage language differs from the standard taught at school. The goal is to highlight the dynamic nature of a pluricentric language in a diasporic context. Unique instructional problems emerge for heritage speakers who have partially or fully acquired one variant of a language but find themselves in a classroom where another standard is taught. To address the difficulties\, the process of second dialect acquisition (SDA)\, which involves the learning of a new variety of the same language\, has to be fully understood. After surveying the growing body of work on SDA\, this presentation will apply the findings to Armenian in a diasporic context and make concrete recommendations. Most importantly\, Dr. Karapetian will argue that the natural sociolinguistic variation in the pluricentric manifestation of Armenian should not be seen as a problem but as a resource.\n\nDr. Karapetian’s talk is part of an effort by the Society for Armenian Studies to open a discussion on Western Armenian as highlighted by its latest publication - \"Western Armenian in the 21 st Century: Challenges and New Approaches\" (Fresno\, CA: The Press at Fresno State\, 2018) edited by Bedross Der Matossian and Barlow Der Mugrdechian. \n    \nDr. Shushan Karapetian is Deputy Director of the Institute of Armenian Studies at the University of Southern California. She received a PhD in Near Eastern Languages and Cultures from UCLA in 2014\, where she has taught Armenian Studies courses over the past nine years. Her dissertation\, “‘How Do I Teach My Kids My Broken Armenian?’: A Study of Eastern Armenian Heritage Language Speakers in Los Angeles” received the Society for Armenian Studies Distinguished Dissertation Award in 2015. Her research interests focus on heritage languages and speakers and particularly on the case of Armenian heritage speakers in the Los Angeles community\, on which she has presented and lectured widely. In 2018\, she was the recipient of the Russ Campbell Young Scholar Award at the Third International Conference on Heritage/Community Languages in recognition for outstanding scholarship in heritage language research. \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: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:Civitates Orbis Terrarum: Braun & Hogenberg’s Evolving World
DESCRIPTION:Civitates Orbis Terrarum (Cities of the World)\, the first standardized city atlas\, contains over 540 maps and views between its six volumes. First published in 1572 by Georg Braun (1541-1622) and Frans Hogenberg (1535-1590)\, Civitates was first intended as a companion to Ortelius’s Theatrum Orbis Terrarum. New editions of the city atlas continued to be printed through 1617. Hogenberg\, one of the most prolific engravers of the time\, was joined by many other engravers in creating the Civitates. Braun edited the work and provided the descriptions of the cities on the verso of each plate. This exhibit contains 18 works from the Civitates\, including many from the Clark Library’s holdings. Also included are reproductions of large panoramas Amsterdam\, London\, and St. Petersburg that reflect the evolution of city mapping through the 17th and 18th centuries.

DESCRIPTION:This exhibit of Steve Wirtz’ sculptures features a selection of his Dynamic Football series and animal works. The Dynamic Football laminated paper works explore compositions of action\, allowing the artist to exploit the properties of the medium. The pieces are constructed by gluing many layers of paper over wire armatures. When dry\, the sculptures are painted in an often splashy\, sketchy style. Wirtz’ silly animal works are what the artist is best known for\, and they take shape in his Goetzville\, Michigan studio.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Corridor\, Floor 2\n1500 E.

DESCRIPTION:Victoria (Vika) Bulgakova grew up in Ukraine\, a part of the former Soviet Union. She immigrated to the U.S. in 1994\, and for the next 22 years\, New York became her home. In 2016\, she moved to Michigan to pursue an MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art. She found the raw beauty of Detroit inspiring and kept her metalsmithing studio practice in the city. The copper and brass vessels in her Ваза series and other included works are a meditation on fluidity of memories: their ability to shift from reflection to re-invention over time. Each vessel potentially holds something within its boundaries\, whether tangible or not. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center North Lobby\, Floor 1\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:Exhibition:Other Crusoes\, Other Islands: Mapping a Complex Legacy
DESCRIPTION:On the 300th anniversary of the publication of The Life and Surprising Adventures of Robinson Crusoe\, of York\, Mariner\, this exhibit interrogates the troubled legacy of Daniel Defoe’s seminal English novel. It also explores how creators have pushed back against the colonialist\, hyper-masculine\, and racist ethos of the text by using the castaway narrative to explore self-sufficiency\, otherness\, and the role of gendered and racialized ideas in constructing the self.\n\nThis novel of shipwreck\, survival\, and rescue has become a cultural touchstone. Today\, many people who haven’t read the novel still feel familiar with key plot elements\, Robinson Crusoe\, and Friday. Yet\, there is less familiarity with how both the original text and many of the adaptations of Robinson Crusoe have fed into and reinforced narratives of imperialism and racism. Drawing on the Hubbard Collection of Imaginary Voyages - one of the world’s most comprehensive collections of editions\, translations\, adaptations\, and spin-offs of Robinson Crusoe - Other Crusoes\, Other Islands seeks to understand how readers and writers have engaged with the story since its initial publication in 1719.\n\nContent Advisory: Please be aware that some items in this exhibit feature racist imagery and potentially painful content. Although Robinson Crusoe is often treated as children’s literature and this exhibit includes children’s books and board games\, it is not an exhibit geared towards children and reflects the significant shifts over time in ideas about what is appropriate for children.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Yo Tengo Nombre
DESCRIPTION:This series of paintings was inspired by the Trump administration’s “zero tolerance” immigration policy and the images of migrant families being separated and detained at the US-Mexico border that dominated media outlets across the nation since the summer of 2017. The exhibition also includes nearly 100 I.D. photos of migrant children from a Texas holding center. Buentello took the photos  in 2014 while working for an intake agency.\n\n\"Focusing on images from the US media sources that exposed the violence of migrants’ dehumanization\, vulnerability\, fear\, loss\, and criminalization\, the paintings document the embodiment of state-authorized brutality and erasures of personhood.\" -Ruth Leonela Buentello\n\nThis project is funded by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Is Democracy Alive and Well in South Africa?  Evaluating the results of the 2019 National Elections
DESCRIPTION:This presentation evaluates the state of democracy in South Africa over the last 25 years. How respected and stable are democratic institutions following the historic elections of 1994? Has the African National Congress\, the ruling party\, successfully addressed the harmful legacy of apartheid? Has the government realized the ideals of the country’s first\, democratically elected president\, Nelson Mandela\, to eradicate poverty and promote dignity? We focus on the 2019 National Elections to answer these questions.\n\nAnne Pitcher is a Professor in the Departments of Political Science and Afroamerican and African Studies at the University of Michigan. Her current research examines party politics\, urban political economy\, and state-business relations in Africa. She has conducted fieldwork\, survey and archival research in Angola\, Mozambique\, Kenya\, Zambia\, and South Africa. She has published several books and dozens of articles in scholarly journals. She formerly served as President of the African Studies Association.\n\nThis is the second in a six-lecture series. The subject is South Africa: Past\, Present\, and a Look Forward. The next lecture will be September 26\, 2019. The title is: De Facto and De Jure Apartheid: On the Moral\, Politcal and Policy Failures of the Post-Apartheid State: A Call for an Official State Apology for Apartheid in South Africa

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Nature a Moment: Visions of the World from Three Korean-American Artists
DESCRIPTION:Three Chicago-area Korean-American artists render deeply personal interpretations of the natural world in the exhibit “Nature a Moment” at Matthaei Botanical Gardens. Using woodcut\, painting on canvas\, and mixed media\, Linda Hyong\, Sung Eun Hong\, and Seong Ok Lee explore the world of flowers\, gardens\, and nature in vivid works that slow time to a fleeting present moment.\n\nLinda Hyong is a University of Michigan alumna and former teaching assistant in the U-M Stamps School of Art & Design. She draws her inspiration from Claude Monet’s water lily garden in France to create her own modern interpretation of impressionism. Seong Ok Lee is inspired by flowers\, which she believes are the most beautiful forms in nature. In her dream-like\, nearly abstract paintings\, Sung Eun Hong communicates her vision of what she calls “pure dreams and fantasy.”\n\nExhibit runs September 14 through November 15\, 2019 at the\n\nUniversity of Michigan Matthaei Botanical Gardens\, 1800 N. Dixboro Rd.\, Ann Arbor. Free.

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.

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.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Caves of Chachapoyas\, Peru:Modern Human Activities and Potential Prehistoric Analogies -Lauren Pratt Doc Candidate Anthropology.   Shells and Shell-Rings: The Woodland Period use of Mollusks at Mound Field - Julian E. Schultz Doc Student Anthropology
DESCRIPTION:PhD candidate Lauren Pratt will share the results of her research this research in Peru this summer. Although persistent use of sites over time is a common theme in archaeology\, rapid changes in subsistence\, economy\, and technology throughout most of the world over the past few centuries means that anthropologists rarely have the opportunity to see such persistence in action. In the Chachapoyas cultural area of northern Peru\, however\, caves and rockshelters remain in regular use by local agriculturalists. Previous work in the region (Church 1996) suggests that in some cases modern use of these caves provides useful analogs to prehistoric behavior. Here\, I discuss a variety of caves and rockshelters surveyed in July 2019\, highlighting modern human activities and possible analogies to the past.\n\nFirst year graduate student Julian Schultz will share some of the results from Florida State University's excavations (in 2016) at a Swift Creek/Weeden Island ring-midden\, where he completed his undergrad. Julian analyzed the mollusk remains from three shell units\, and in doing so found there to be a steep decline in the prevalence of a key resource\, the eastern oyster\, as the site's occupation waned. His talk will be primarily focused around this decline\, the factors that may have caused it\, and how this statistical drop-off potentially relates to the site's eventual abandonment. In addition\, he will explore how this statistical feature places Mound Field into the prehistoric landscape\, both in the Southeast and (to a degree) in a more global sense.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Connectivity and Automation: Opportunities and Challenges for Transportation Engineering
DESCRIPTION:In the last decade\, the rapid development of communication technology\, coupled with artificial intelligence with big data\, had significantly impacted and will continue to transform people’s daily travel. This creates significant opportunities for innovation in the field of transportation engineering. Such opportunities are manifested by the availability of massive mobility service data that is not seen before and the rapid development of autonomous vehicle technologies. In this talk\, Dr. Liu will discuss the future trends for transportation engineering\, drawing his experience as a seasoned transportation researcher and in the last two years as a business executive in a mobility service company. He will also discuss his research work on connected vehicle based traffic signal control and the process of transferring the research results into a commercial product\, which is currently being offered as software as a service on the market. It is his hope that this talk can shed some light on opportunities and challenges for future transportation research and education.\n\nDr. Henry Liu is a Professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor. He is also a Research Professor at the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute and the Director for the Center for\nConnected and Automated Transportation (USDOT Region 5 University Transportation Center).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Departmental Seminar (899): Lewis Ntaimo\, Texas A&M University — *Stochastic Decomposition for Risk-Averse Multistage Stochastic Programming*
DESCRIPTION:The Departmental Seminar Series is open to all. U-M Industrial and Operations Engineering graduate students and faculty are especially encouraged to attend.\n\nThe seminar will be followed by a reception in the IOE Commons (Room 1709) from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m.\n\nTitle:\nStochastic Decomposition for Risk-Averse Multistage Stochastic Programming\n\nAbstract:\nMean-risk multistage stochastic programming (MR-MSP) provides a framework for modeling sequential decision-making problems under uncertainty and risk. However\, MR-MSP problems are difficult to solve due to their large-scale nature and the incorporation of risk measures in the objective. This work derives multistage stochastic decomposition (MSD) for solving large-scale MR-MSP instances with deviation and quantile risk measures. We show that risk-averse MSD converges asymptotically to an optimal solution and report on a computational study on the application of MSD to long-term hydrothermal scheduling. The study provides several insights into how optimal solutions vary across different risk levels as well as across different risk measures. In particular\, the results reveal that conditional value at-risk exhibits desirable control over extreme scenarios than other risk measures.\n\nKeywords: \nMultistage stochastic programming\, stochastic decomposition\, interior sampling\, mean-risk measures.\n\nBio:\nLewis Ntaimo is a Professor in the Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering at Texas A&M University and has been with the university since 2004. He obtained his Ph.D. in Systems and Industrial Engineering in 2004\, his M.S. in Mining and Geological Engineering in 2000\, and B.S. in Mining Engineering\, all from the University of Arizona. Dr. Ntaimo’s research interests are in models and algorithms for large-scale stochastic optimization\, systems modeling and process optimization\, and computer simulation. Recent applications include patient and resource management in healthcare\, wildfire response planning\, aircraft assembly line production optimization\, energy reduction in data centers\, and wind farm operations and maintenance. His research has been funded by the National Science Foundation\, Department of Homeland Security\, and industry. Dr. Ntaimo is a member of INFORMS and IISE\, and he is the 2018-2019 President of the INFORMS Minority Issues Forum.  He currently serves as associate editor for INFORMS Journal on Computing\, IISE Transactions\, IISE Transactions on Healthcare Systems Engineering\, and is on the Editorial Board of the Journal of Global Optimization.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Queer Migrant #Latinx Poemics / Unincuirporated
DESCRIPTION:The American Studies Consortium and the Global Postcolonialisms Collective present a hybrid creative-critical presentation by Prof. Urayoán Noel (NYU). The first part is a critical exploration of the Instagram work of queer migrant Latinx poets\, highlighting how their memes and hashtags embody a self-reflexive poetics of polemic (a \"poemics\") that challenges hegemonic Latinidad. The second part is a poetry reading and performance that interrogates the complexities of digital and embodied politics from an \"unincuirporated\" queer Puerto Rican perspective\, in \"poemic\" conversation with the work of the poets previously discussed. The performance is followed by a Q&A.

DESCRIPTION:CLASP is very pleased to welcome Prof. Anantha Aiyyer of NC State University. \n\nProf. Aiyyer will give a presentation titled: \n\"New Perspectives in the Dynamics of African Easterly Waves\"\n\nAbstract: African Easterly waves are the main synoptic scale disturbances of the North African monsoon. They are also the primary precursors to tropical cyclones in the Atlantic. Many aspects of their origin\, evolution and storm track structure are still poorly understood. In this talk\, I will provide an overview of the basic properties of these disturbances and present some recent results from our group pertaining to their instability and coupling to precipitating convection.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AE Chair's Distinguished Seminar Series: \"Will Those Multi-rotor Aircraft Really 'Take-Off'?\"
DESCRIPTION:A number of hot topics in aviation right now — such as small UAS\, urban air mobility\, eVTOL aircraft — depend on new multirotor aircraft configurations.  We know that these vehicles can fly in idealized conditions\, but will it take for their use to really “take-off” in society?  This presentation will start by reviewing the enablers of these new vehicles.  Then\, we’ll note a number of pressing issues being examined at Penn State that may limit their wide-spread use.  For example\, small rotors can easily accrete ice in less-than-perfect atmospheric conditions.  When designed for maximum performance\, they can be too noisy to operate in an urban environment — requiring trade-offs between vehicle performance and societal acceptance\, and meriting a careful engineering design of their landing and take-off procedures.\n\nThese vehicles typically depend on new methods of flight control and the business cases for many of them assume highly automated operations allowing for reduced human staffing levels. In a broader sense\, these vehicles\, and their operations\, are so novel compared to traditional methods for certification and operational approval that the aviation community needs to envision new bases for safety cases\, including new concepts for human-autonomy teaming\, new requirements for adaptive\, contextualized behavior\, and new methods for modeling and assessing safety.\n\nAbout the Speaker...\n\nAMY R. PRITCHETT is a professor and head of the Department of Aerospace Engineering at the Pennsylvania State University. Previously\, Dr. Pritchett was on the faculty of the Schools of Aerospace Engineering and of Industrial and Systems Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology from 1997 to 2017\, and she also served via an IPA as the Director of NASA’s Aviation Safety Program in 2008 and 2009.  Her research focuses on the intersection of technology\, expert human performance and aerospace operations\, with a particular focus on designing to support safety.  She has received the AIAA Lawrence Sperry Award\, the RTCA William Jackson Award and\, as a member of the Executive Committee of the Commercial Aviation Safety Team\, the 2008 Collier Trophy.  She earned her Sc.D.\, S.M. and S.B. in Aeronautics and Astronautics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM Theory Seminar | Fracton Phase of Matter: From Fantasy to Reality
DESCRIPTION:Fracton phase of matter shares many features of topological order\, including long-range entangled ground states and non-trivial braiding statistics. At the same time\, fracton phase contains subextensive ground-state degeneracy and the restricted mobility of quasiparticle which exclude itself from the TQFT paradigm. In this talk\, I will present a theoretical framework on higher rank Chern-Simons theory in 3D as the low energy effective theory for Fracton phases. In addition\, I will mention the emergent fractonic phenomenon in plaquette paramagnetic crystal which prompts an algebraic quantum liquid phase with a 'bose Fermi surface'.\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Thursday Seminar: Charting the spatiotemporal landscape of species’ responses to climate change
DESCRIPTION:The Carolina Parakeet\, the Heath Hen\, the Passenger Pigeon—when we contemplate how bird diversity has changed\, we often focus on the handful of species we have lost entirely. But while we have yet to lose a single bird species to our rapidly changing climate\, birds and other creatures are currently adapting and responding. Studying changing bird communities over decades to centuries\, Dr. Tingley’s work demonstrates the complex ways that species are responding to climate change\, often by shifting in space and traveling in time.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EIHS Lecture: Training Slaves for the Camera: “Racial Types” in Khartoum\, 1882
DESCRIPTION:Why did photographers in the nineteenth century take pictures of slaves? What were they looking for\, in the faces and bodies of those in bondage? What\, if any\, aesthetic\, cultural and racial understanding did these photographers bring to their craft? This discussion will explore these questions in the work of Louis Vossion\, a French photographer commissioned by his government to visually recreate the “types” of people living in Khartoum\, Sudan\, in 1882. With over 150 photographs\, Vossion created a visual encyclopedia of a city full of slaves\, a city that in 2 years' time would be completely changed by the Mahdiyya rebellion.  These pictures thus form a museum by themselves\, an ode to a world that was\, in Vossion’s lifetime\, to be completely and violently changed.\n\nEve M. Troutt Powell is the Christopher H.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Mary-Claire King\, PhD [2019 MaryFran Sowers Memorial Lecture]
DESCRIPTION:A pre-eminent scholar\, Dr. King leads studies to understand the genetic causes of serious human disorders including breast and ovarian cancer and schizophrenia. Her work focuses on disentangling genetic heterogeneity in complex traits\, and on discovering rare alleles that cause common disorders. From her ground-breaking doctoral dissertation that transformed evolutionary biology to her formative work proving the existence of a major gene for a complex trait that demonstrated the genetic inheritance of breast cancer\, Dr. King has contributed significantly to the advancement of scientific knowledge of genetics. Most recently\, her laboratory developed and patented a targeted capture and massively parallel sequencing approach (BROCA) that detects mutations in breast and ovarian cancer genes. \n\nA leading human rights advocate\, Dr. King pioneered the development of genomics tools for human rights investigations including use of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequencing to match kidnapped children to possible maternal relatives after the end of Argentinian dictatorship of 1975-1983. Her approach is now used by governmental and United Nations forensic teams worldwide to identify remains of victims of extra-judicial execution and missing soldiers. \n\nDr. King received her PhD in Genetics from the University of California at Berkeley\, and her postdoctoral training at UC San Francisco. A professor at UC Berkeley from 1976-1995\, she has been the American Cancer Society Professor of Medical Genetics and Genome Sciences at the University of Washington since 1995.  She is a member of the National Academy of Medicine (1994)\, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences (1999)\, and the National Academy of Sciences (2005) and is a past President of the American Society of Human Genetics. Among her many honors\, she was awarded the Lasker-Koshland Special Achievement Award in Medical Science (2014)\, the National Medal of Science (2016) and the Advocacy Award of the American Society of Human Genetics (2018).\nA reception\, sponsored by UM Precision Health\, will immediately follow the lecture.

SUMMARY:Other:Unconventional techniques of imaging and microscopy for bio-medical applications. 
DESCRIPTION:                                                                                                                                                                        \n          Over the last few years a significant effort has been directed towards unconventional imaging techniques\, such as microscopy without lenses as it can overcome some of the drawbacks associated with tradition optical microscopy\, that rely on objective lenses\, which results in a trade-off between the field of view and the resolution. Thus lens-less microscopy allows imaging and analysis over a wide area\, enabling high throughput measurements\, in addition to being cost-effective and portable. In this type of microscopy\, the images are computationally reconstructed from in-line holograms\, which result from the interference between the scattered optical wave from the sample and the directly transmitted wave. Here\, I will present about lens-free on-chip microscopy designs\, image reconstruction and its utility towards a wide range of applications related to sizing of nanoparticles\, nanoparticle-aggregation\, bio-sensing of pathogens and rare cancer cells\, characterization of polymer degradation\, material properties and rheology.             \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nAniruddha Ray

DESCRIPTION:Join us for conversation with Ruth Leonela Buentello\, Efroymson Emerging Artist in Residence\, and curator Amanda Krugliak\, followed by reception.\n\nAbout \"Yo Tengo Nombre\":\nThis series of paintings was inspired by the Trump administration’s “zero tolerance” immigration policy and the images of migrant families being separated and detained at the US-Mexico border that dominated media outlets across the nation since the summer of 2017. The exhibition also includes nearly 100 I.D. photos of migrant children from a Texas holding center. Buentello took the photos  in 2014 while working for an intake agency.\n\n\"Focusing on images from the US media sources that exposed the violence of migrants’ dehumanization\, vulnerability\, fear\, loss\, and criminalization\, the paintings document the embodiment of state-authorized brutality and erasures of personhood.\" -Ruth Leonela Buentello\n\nThis project is funded by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Performance:Amy Speace
DESCRIPTION:Nashville-based\, Amy Speace is a folk singer\, timeless and classic\, and a bit out of her own era. \"She has one of the richest and loveliest voices in the genre and her songs are luxuriously smart\,\" writes journalist Craig Havighurst (host of Nashville’s Music City Roots). \"She’s profoundly personal yet also a bit mythic.\" Since her discovery in 2006 by folk-pop icon Judy Collins\, who signed her to her own imprint Wildflower Records\, Amy has been heralded as one of the leading voices of the new generation of American folk singers. Her song “The Weight of the World” was named as the #4 Best Folk Song of the last decade by NYC’s premiere AAA radio station\, WFUV and was recorded by Judy Collins. From her beginnings in New York City as a classically trained actress with The National Shakespeare Company\, to the coffeehouses of Greenwich Village where she began playing her original songs\, to her move to East Nashville in 2009\, to her most recent release\, \"That Kind Of Girl\,: what ties all of her work together is a palpable empathy for the small struggles of the human condition. Rock critic Dave Marsh\, long a fan\, wrote taht \"Amy Speace’s songs hang together like a short story collection\, united by a common vantage point and common predicaments … it’s a gift to hear a heart so modest even when it’s wide open.\" She comes to Michigan with a brand-new release\, \"Me and the Ghost of Charlemagne.\"\n\nThis show is free at the door for Ark members at the Solo level and above.
