SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Into the Dataverse Hackathon
DESCRIPTION:For their 2019 Hackathon\, the National Security Innovation Network Challenges students to create an AI-enabling user interface that can intuitively capture both structured and non-structured maintenance data\, and associated maintainer actions\, in an efficient and user-friendly manner to produce more accurate maintenance logs.\n\nThere are two focus areas embedded in this challenge:\nData Collection - How do you recognize\, classify\, and quantify maintainer action? How do you associate those actions with required maintenance data fields?\nUser Interface - What are the most intuitive and user-friendly interfaces? How can you minimize the burden on the technician? \n\nIdeal solutions will create more accurate maintenance logs while taking into consideration a wide spectrum of Intelligent User Interfaces - from traditional User Interfaces to more advanced modalities such as Natural Language Processing\, Gesture Recognition and Augmented Reality.\n \nWho should be interested? New ideas from students\, academics\, entrepreneurs\, and early stage startups with skills including\, but not limited to: design\, hardware and software engineering\, computer science\, artificial intelligence and machine learning\, UI/UX\, electrical\, mechanical and industrial engineering\, physics\, business\, communications\, social media\, and information technology.\n\nNSIN will provide up to three $15K awards\, for a total of $45K\, to three winning teams to further develop their concepts!

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:Oil on Water: Painting on Linen
DESCRIPTION:Danielle Eubank is an award-winning artist who has been on four international sailing expeditions and painted every ocean on the planet to raise awareness about the oceans and climate change. Her large paintings are emotive abstract portraits of specific bodies of water. The Oil on Water exhibition features Eubank’s oil on linen paintings of the Arctic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. She creates patterns within patterns\, representing vertical stacks of rhythms. The undulating forms\, such as water ripples\, oil slicks\, and refuse\, combined with the memories that water evokes\, makes her work eye-opening\, yet soothing and sensual. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Lobby\, Floor 1                                                                       \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.

Symposium and exhibition events will take place in Ann Arbor at the Stamps School of Art and Design (2000 Bonisteel Blvd.) and Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.).\n\nBorders and boundaries\, both tangible and ephemeral\, are closely tied to the ways in which humanity has always made sense of the world\, and of its place in it.\n\nOur current moment is one in which this certainty is being undermined as many borders are being challenged and contested.\n\nBorders can be mental\, physical\, geographical\, political\, social\, ethical\, legal\, economic\, environmental\, digital\, real\, imagined\, visceral\, and emotional.\n\nHow do you navigate borders in your own practice or research?\n\nThe New Media Caucus seeks to bring together artists and scholars to critically engage relevant topics.\n\nSome of the processes calling contemporary borders into question are:\n\nRegistration is required to attend the Symposium. The deadline for registration is September 13\, 2019.\n\nPlease also consider joining students\, faculty and the Ann Arbor community for the Penny Stamps Speaker Series on the evening of Thursday\, Sept. 19. \n\nPlease RSVP to reserve your place for this free event: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/border-control-2019-nmc-symposium-exhibition-registration-56839748217

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: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:Border Control: Traversing Horizons in Media Practice
DESCRIPTION:In September 2019\, the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design will host the New Media Caucus 2019 Symposium and Exhibition\, Border Control.  Symposium and exhibition events will take place in Ann Arbor at the Stamps School of Art and Design (2000 Bonisteel Blvd.) and Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.).\n\nExhibition Dates: September 20 - November 10\, 2019\nSymposium Dates: September 19 - 22\, 2019\nGuest Curator: Allison Collins\, Media Arts Curator\, Western Front\n\nCurated by Allison Collins in collaboration with Carrie Edinger and Srimoyee Mitra.\nIn partnership with the New Media Caucus \n\nHuman migration is a defining issue of the 21st century\, often calling into question the relevance\, role\, and responsibilities of national borders across the globe. As individuals seek refuge from geopolitical and environmental forces\, we become an increasingly globalized community. Demarcations of all types are simultaneously porous and closed\, defensive and receptive\, and seen in almost every facet of our existence. Border Control responds to these conditions with an open-ended question\, asking: “How has humanity made sense of the world in relation to borders and boundaries\, both physically and psychologically?” While positioned within (or outside of) defined spaces and identities\, human refusal of such literal definitions is paramount. Even while lines drawn have important consequences for lived reality\, the winds\, currents\, and natural energies of the Earth deny enclosures and definitions that politics and maps might suggest.\n\nDrawn from practices that are touched or driven by new media\, Border Control assembles works by artists who consider geographical contexts\, patterns of migration\, displacement\, and statelessness. Collectively\, they offer projects with subterfuge\, refusal\, and reconsideration of imposed state-sanctioned boundaries.\n\n \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: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:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Walter Oltmann
DESCRIPTION:Infant Skull II\, a woven “tapestry” made out of very fine aluminum wire\, only reveals its shape when seen from afar. Drawing inspiration from his country’s basketry traditions\, the South African artist Walter Oltmann (b. 1960) alternates densely layered sections with open spaces\, allowing the underlying surface of the work to show through. The skull that emerges is\, in a South African context\, evocative of the Cradle of Humankind—a series of caves outside Johannesburg\, where some of the oldest hominin fossils in the world have been found.\n \nThe work complements UMMA’s renowned and growing collection of historical and contemporary African art and reminds us of the central role of Africa in the history of humankind. The purchase was made possible thanks to the generosity of UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee.\n\nThis acquisition was made possible by the generosity of the UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee\, 2016.

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:The Power Family Program for Inuit Art: Tillirnanngittuq
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of UMMA’s new Power Family Program for Inuit Art\, the Museum presents a special exhibition of two incredible\, intertwining stories. One traces the development of contemporary Inuit art in the Canadian Arctic from the 1950s to the present. The other relates the fascinating story of the Power family’s important role in supporting and promoting Inuit art from the outset\, bringing public attention to its artistic strength and cultural importance. The Power family’s collection is unusual in its strong representation of early contemporary carvings\, incised drawings on ivory and antler\, soapstone sculptures\, and prints that evolved as Inuit artists developed their own artistic voices and responded creatively to their changing world. \n\nThis exhibition inaugurates the Power Family Program for Inuit Art\, established in 2018 through the generosity of Philip and Kathy Power.

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:Oil on Water: Painting on Linen
DESCRIPTION:Danielle Eubank is an award-winning artist who has been on four international sailing expeditions and painted every ocean on the planet to raise awareness about the oceans and climate change. Her large paintings are emotive abstract portraits of specific bodies of water. The Oil on Water exhibition features Eubank’s oil on linen paintings of the Arctic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. She creates patterns within patterns\, representing vertical stacks of rhythms. The undulating forms\, such as water ripples\, oil slicks\, and refuse\, combined with the memories that water evokes\, makes her work eye-opening\, yet soothing and sensual. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Lobby\, Floor 1                                                                       \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:Presentation:Clinical Science Brown Bag: Longitudinal studies of Bipolar Disorder
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Bipolar disorder is characterized by recurrent mania and depressions.  It is an illness of dynamic states and pathological changes in energy\, emotion\, and cognitions.  The Prechter Bipolar Program studies the course and outcome of bipolar disorder from several vantage points and identifies 7 phenotypic sub-classes that contribute to the observed phenotype in a pluralistic manner.  The classes include: disease\, cognitive neuroscience (neuropsychology)\, psychology (personality)\, motivated behaviors\, sleep and circadian\, life story\, and course / outcomes.  Each of the phenotype sub-classes defines a scientific edge of research\, each with contributions from several independent disciplines.  The Prechter Bipolar Longitudinal Cohort consists over 1350 participants with clinical and biological data that will be available for collaborative research projects.

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: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:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral & Experimental Economics (SBEE): Persistent Overconfidence and Biased Memory: Evidence from Managers
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nA long-standing puzzle is whether and how overconfidence can persist in field settings characterized by repeated feedback. This paper studies managers who participate repeatedly in a high-powered tournament incentive system\, learning relative performance each time. Using both reduced form and structural methods we find that: (i) managers make overconfident predictions about future performance\; (ii) managers have overly-positive memories of past performance\; (iii) the two phenomenon are linked at an individual level in a way consistent with models of motivated beliefs.\n\nwith David Huffman and Julia Shvet

SUMMARY:Presentation:Developmental Brown Bag: Increasing the Scientific Rigor in Developmental Psychology
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nIn the last few years\, the field of psychology has been challenged with a crisis in the rigor and reproducibility of science. The focus of these issues has primarily been in social\, cognitive\, and cognitive neuroscience psychology\, however\, the area of developmental research is not immune to these issues. This presentation provides an overview of the “replication crisis” and the choices made by researchers that are often not noted in methods\, thus making the replication of studies more difficult. In this review\, we discuss issues of researcher flexibility in the data design and selection of sample size\, collection\, and analysis stages of research. In each of these areas\, we address examples of bias and how developmental researchers can address these issues in their own research.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Special AMO Seminar | Quantum Optics with Molecules
DESCRIPTION:Recent experimental progress in the collective strong coupling regime of organic molecules with optical cavity or plasmonic modes has shown light-induced modifications of material properties. Experimental and theoretical endeavors go in the direction of charge and energy transport\, Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) enhancement\, modified chemical reactivity etc. Oftentimes experiments rely on theoretical models developed for standard cavity quantum electrodynamics with two-level quantum emitters. Molecular systems however have an increased complexity as molecular vibrations and level disorder play a crucial role. We provide a theoretical formalism to tackle the light-electronic-vibrations dynamics modeled via the Holstein-Tavis-Cummings Hamiltonian [1]. We analytically describe aspects such as: polariton asymmetry\, molecular branching ratio modification in the Purcell regime and cavity-mediated donor-acceptor FRET processes.\n\n[1] M. Reitz\, C.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LOOK 101: Seeing Art in an Instagram World
DESCRIPTION:Geared toward undergraduate students and focusing on the current exhibitions at the Institute for the Humanities\, this contemporary series of discussions offers a fresh take on the basics of looking and evaluating art in the gallery and how it’s organized\, making the connection from the traditional “white cube gallery” to iGen visual worlds like Facebook and Instagram.Today: The Art of Ruth Leonela Buentello with Institute for the Humanities curator Amanda Krugliak.\n\nAbout Ruth Leonela Buentello's exhibition \"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:Lecture / Discussion:CMENAS Colloquium Series.    Islamic Law in Movement – Saints\, Merchants\, and Technocrats: The Diffusion of Malikism in the Islamic West
DESCRIPTION:The 2019 CMENAS Colloquium Series theme is \"Migration in the Islamicate World.\" \n    \nWhy and how did Islamic law spread to areas so far and wide even after the initial centuries of military conquest and success in empire building? What is charismatic about something like law and how does it spread if not through coercion? What kind of culture was at its frontier as it spread in the past. This talk looks at the diffusion of one of the four schools of Islamic Law and how it developed in the Islamic West (Spain\, the Maghrib\, and West Africa) by focusing on a few illustrative episodes in its diffusion. \n    \nAbout the Speaker: \n    \nCamilo Gómez-Rivas is Associate Professor of Mediterranean Studies at UC Santa Cruz\, where he teaches in the Literature Department and in the Legal Studies Program. His first book described the development of legal institutions in the first Berber-Islamic empire of Medieval Morocco. His current work is on displacement to the medieval and the early modern Maghrib. \n\n-----\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Public Finance: Tax Reform and the Valuation of Super-star Firms
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nUpon a reduction in corporate tax rates\, theory tells us that the absolute increase in the value of a firm's equity is increasing in its productivity\, while the excess return is related ambiguously to productivity. Using data on the U.S. stock market\, I show that the excess returns due news on the latest U.S. tax reform are strongly related to traditional measures of firm profitability and market power. Compared to a firm in perfect competition\, my model predicts that a monopolist would see its excess return increased by between 5 and 105 percentage points more upon news of the tax cut. I use this fact to construct a new measure of firm profitability based on its stock market reaction to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. My results show that profitability across U.S. firms is distributed with a long right tail\, confirming results from a growing literature documenting an increase in mark-ups and a concentration of market power in the U.S. economy.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IOE 813 Seminar: Kevin Taaffe\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:Hospitals have introduced information technology to improve the ability of staff to react in a timely fashion\, but with mixed success. Hospitals have also continued to build new operating rooms\, but advances in patient care and safety are not always evident. In this seminar\, we address these two areas of concern regarding day-of-surgery patient flow and safety. Part 1: We describe the development and testing of a mobile application to explore if the use of technology could reduce barriers to communication and coordination on the day of surgery. While staff members in a hospital’s perioperative services department perform their work individually\, their choices of upcoming tasks depend on data they can either observe or gather verbally in order to maintain patient flow. Without constant communication with members of other departments\, staff may inadvertently select lower priority tasks\, which is counter-productive to perioperative services as a whole. The developed mobile application\, Periop-MLS\, provided each department and its members greater visibility of the workflow. To carry out user testing\, the researchers integrated a day-of-surgery discrete event simulation model to communicate with the mobile app to provide realistic scenarios. Through trial-runs of Periop-MLS with staff members\, the POS department was able to make proactive coordination and communication decisions. Part 2: It is important to design an operating room layout that can not only improve staff and patient safety but also increase efficiency. In this research\, we identify those design factors that influence safety and efficiency through reduced clutter\, congestion\, and staff walking during surgery. A sample of video-taped surgeries from a large academic hospital were studied to understand the movement of surgical staff during surgery. All activities were coded based on location\, activity type\, and purpose\, and then simulation methodology was used to study the different activity types and movement patterns inside the room. Based on OR size\, OR shape\, operating table orientation\, workstation locations\, number of staff\, number of doors\, and surgery type\, we provided critical insight to OR managers and researchers as they determine recommendations for OR design elements and inform the design of future operating rooms.\n\nKevin M. Taaffe\, Ph.D.\, the Harriet and Jerry Dempsey Professor in Industrial Engineering at Clemson University\, has 25 years of industry and academic experience. After receiving B.S. and M.S. degrees in Industrial Engineering from the University of Illinois\, Dr. Taaffe worked in the transportation logistics industry (American Airlines\, Sabre) for eight years\, before returning to academia to obtain his Ph.D. from the University of Florida. Dr. Taaffe’s research interests include the application of simulation and optimization in healthcare\, production\, and transportation logistics. In particular\, Dr. Taaffe focuses on healthcare logistics problems that range from patient flow to operating room management to clinical space capacity management. Dr. Taaffe has worked with clinicians\, administrators\, managers\, and support staff to identify and solve problems related to the patient and staff experience on the day of surgery. Dr. Taaffe began his career working as a transportation planning consultant\, and there is a logical research thrust that has resulted from this experience. He has always enjoyed working on industry-sponsored projects that bridge the gap between theoretical research and application. This academic/industry collaboration is a theme of Dr. Taaffe’s interest\, as can be seen by his named professorship. Harriet and Jerry Dempsey provided this professorship in an effort to strengthen the research ties between Clemson University and Prisma Health – Upstate.  In addition to his academic and research interests\, Dr. Taaffe plays an important role in the Institute of Industrial and Systems Engineers (IISE) where he serves as the Senior VP of North American Operations. In this role\, he is helping students and professionals get the most out of their professional organization.

SUMMARY:Presentation:UM Psychology Community Talk: Understanding Memory: How it Works and How to Improve it
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Human beings store away huge quantities of information in memory. We remember countless facts about the world (e.g.\, birds have wings\, 2+2=4\, there are 26 letters in the alphabet) as well specific information about our own lives (e.g.\, what we had for lunch\, where we went for our last vacation\, our first kiss). How does that work? How do we store information away into memory and then retrieve exactly the information we need minutes\, days\, or even years later? Conversely\, why do we so often forget someone’s name or where we put our keys? And perhaps most importantly\, is there anything we can do to improve our memory and keep it sharp? In this talk\, we’ll dive into the psychological and neural mechanisms that underlie our amazing ability to remember. And we’ll also discuss ways to maximize our memory by applying techniques that have been scientifically demonstrated to improve retention. \n\nBio: Professor Thad A. Polk is an Arthur F. Thurnau Professor and Associate Chair in the Department of Psychology at the University of Michigan. His research combines functional imaging of the human brain with computational modeling and behavioral methods to investigate the neural architecture underlying cognition. Some of his major projects have investigated changes in neural representations as we age\, contributions of nature versus nurture to neural organization and differences in the brains of smokers who quit compared with those who do not. Dr. Polk has taught well over 6\,000 UM students over the past 20 years and has developed three neuroscience courses aimed at the general public for The Great Courses (The Addictive Brain\, The Aging Brain\, The Learning Brain). In 2012 Princeton Review included him on its list of the Best 300 Professors in the U.S.

SUMMARY:Performance:Justin Townes Earle
DESCRIPTION:Justin Townes Earle has done a lot of living in his 37 years. For starters\, there’s the quick-hit bullet points about his childhood that seem to get dredged up in every interview\, article or review about the singer-songwriter and guitarist: Born the son of Steve Earle\, who was largely absent during Justin’s childhood\; struggles from a young age with addiction and numerous stints in rehab\; long stretches of itinerancy and general juvenile delinquency\; a youth he once said he was “lucky to have gotten out of alive.”\n\nThat’s before we get to the years spent honing his craft in Nashville bars and on club stages all over the world\; the various bands\, record labels and industry types that have been drawn toward and\, at times\, pushed away by him\; and\, finally\, the celebrated and rather formidable body of work he has amassed since releasing his critically-acclaimed 2007 debut EP\, Yuma.\n\nIt’s a seemingly bottomless well of material for a singer-songwriter to mine out of just three decades or so of life. And Earle at times has—most recently on his 2017 album\, Kids in the Street\, which the artist calls “one of the more personal records I’ve ever made.”\n\nBut when it came to his newest effort\, The Saint of Lost Causes\, Earle\, these days sober\, married and father to a baby girl\, chose to focus his gaze outward. “Maybe having a kid has made me look at the world around me more\,” he says.

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:Oil on Water: Painting on Linen
DESCRIPTION:Danielle Eubank is an award-winning artist who has been on four international sailing expeditions and painted every ocean on the planet to raise awareness about the oceans and climate change. Her large paintings are emotive abstract portraits of specific bodies of water. The Oil on Water exhibition features Eubank’s oil on linen paintings of the Arctic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea.

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: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.

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:Class / Instruction:OLLI Dialog on Freedom & Diversity with Dilip Das
DESCRIPTION:Freedom is a core value\, a proud symbol of what it means to be American. The meaning of freedom has evolved over the 243 years since our country’s founding. For many\, freedoms were denied or constrained by laws\, policies\, and dominant culture. Today\, in 2019\, more individuals and groups feel a sense of freedom than ever before\, but many\, still\, are marginalized. We will talk\, as an OLLI group\, about freedom and how an understanding of diversity and inclusion is deeply embedded into the meaning of freedom.\n\nDilip Das is Vice Provost of Equity and Inclusion at University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor. He is a liaison for 12 UM units on campus implementing their five-year Diversity\, Equity\, & Inclusion Strategic Plans. He is the Accreditation Liaison Officer at UM for the Higher Learning Commission’s 2020 UM Reaccreditation. Dilip also leads and helps manage statewide college access grant programs and mentors both graduate and undergraduate students. Dilip holds a doctorate in higher education administration\, a master’s in science education\, and a bachelor’s degree \nin biology.\n\nA first in a series of conversations with retiring academic and community leaders who will share their stories and unique perspectives as they look to their second acts.

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:Border Control: Traversing Horizons in Media Practice
DESCRIPTION:In September 2019\, the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design will host the New Media Caucus 2019 Symposium and Exhibition\, Border Control.  Symposium and exhibition events will take place in Ann Arbor at the Stamps School of Art and Design (2000 Bonisteel Blvd.) and Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.).\n\nExhibition Dates: September 20 - November 10\, 2019\nSymposium Dates: September 19 - 22\, 2019\nGuest Curator: Allison Collins\, Media Arts Curator\, Western Front\n\nCurated by Allison Collins in collaboration with Carrie Edinger and Srimoyee Mitra.\nIn partnership with the New Media Caucus \n\nHuman migration is a defining issue of the 21st century\, often calling into question the relevance\, role\, and responsibilities of national borders across the globe. As individuals seek refuge from geopolitical and environmental forces\, we become an increasingly globalized community. Demarcations of all types are simultaneously porous and closed\, defensive and receptive\, and seen in almost every facet of our existence. Border Control responds to these conditions with an open-ended question\, asking: “How has humanity made sense of the world in relation to borders and boundaries\, both physically and psychologically?” While positioned within (or outside of) defined spaces and identities\, human refusal of such literal definitions is paramount. Even while lines drawn have important consequences for lived reality\, the winds\, currents\, and natural energies of the Earth deny enclosures and definitions that politics and maps might suggest.\n\nDrawn from practices that are touched or driven by new media\, Border Control assembles works by artists who consider geographical contexts\, patterns of migration\, displacement\, and statelessness. Collectively\, they offer projects with subterfuge\, refusal\, and reconsideration of imposed state-sanctioned boundaries.\n\n \n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Walter Oltmann
DESCRIPTION:Infant Skull II\, a woven “tapestry” made out of very fine aluminum wire\, only reveals its shape when seen from afar. Drawing inspiration from his country’s basketry traditions\, the South African artist Walter Oltmann (b. 1960) alternates densely layered sections with open spaces\, allowing the underlying surface of the work to show through. The skull that emerges is\, in a South African context\, evocative of the Cradle of Humankind—a series of caves outside Johannesburg\, where some of the oldest hominin fossils in the world have been found.\n \nThe work complements UMMA’s renowned and growing collection of historical and contemporary African art and reminds us of the central role of Africa in the history of humankind. The purchase was made possible thanks to the generosity of UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee.\n\nThis acquisition was made possible by the generosity of the UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee\, 2016.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Complex Systems Seminar | Statistical Mechanics of Microbiomes
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Next-generation sequencing\, high-throughput metabolomics and other measurement technologies have opened vast new horizons for collecting data on the structure and function of microbial communities. But it remains unclear how to leverage this data for effective intervention in medical and agricultural applications. We do not know which quantities can be reliably predicted\, which are hopelessly contingent\, and what the predictors are for the former. In this talk\, I will draw on conceptual tools from Statistical Physics\, which were designed to answer precisely these sorts of questions. In particular\, I will argue that the key features of community structure are encoded in a susceptibility matrix\, which contain the response of species population sizes to small changes in growth rates.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Biopsychology Colloquium: Social Cognition in Chimpanzees' Cooperative Decision-making
DESCRIPTION:Humans are a highly cooperative species. Over the last decades\, research has heavily focused on the psychological underpinnings of human cooperation as well as their phylogenetic origins. One central approach in this regard has been to study chimpanzees\, one of our two closest evolutionary relatives. Numerous findings have led to the view that\, compared to humans\, chimpanzees are substantially less willing to provide material benefits to conspecifics (especially when this comes at a personal cost) and largely do not take others’ mental states into account for cooperative purposes. In my talk\, I will present a series of experimental studies that offer two amendments to this view. Unlike previously assumed\, chimpanzees do seem motivated to benefit others materially but only after receiving their assistance. Moreover\, chimpanzees do show the ability to adjust their actions in response to others’ mental states in the context of mutualistic cooperation. Together\, these findings provide a better understanding of the similarities and differences between the psychological mechanisms underlying chimpanzee and human cooperation.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Tuesday Lunch Seminar: Fantastic fishes and where to find them - using historical natural history data and robots to explore deep sea fish biodiversity
DESCRIPTION:The deep ocean is frequently assumed to be a homogeneous system lacking the same diverse natural history found in shallower waters. However\, as our methods for exploring the deep ocean improve\, common assumptions about dispersal\, reproduction and behavior are constantly being challenged. With the immense amount of data collected and stored in natural history collections to highlight historical distributions of fishes we can now use these data in concert with modern sampling methods like remote operated vehicles (ROVs) and precision netting to learn more about one of the planets most extreme systems. Join Randy as he takes you on a journey from the highest shelves of museum collections to the extreme depths of the ocean in a quest to learn more about fishes\, and where to find them.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:ChE Seminar Series: Brian Aguado
DESCRIPTION:>This Seminar will be held in the North Campus Research Complex\, Building 32\, Auditorium\n\n\"Precision biomaterial platforms to probe valvular fibroblast activation\"\n\nABSTRACT\n\nAortic valve stenosis (AVS) is a progressive disease characterized by aberrant stiffening of the aortic valve\, leading to inadequate blood flow from the left ventricle and eventual heart failure. AVS is currently treated exclusively with valve replacement surgeries\, which may be avoided if effective small molecule therapeutics could be identified to slow or reverse AVS progression. During AVS progression\, a large fraction of valvular interstitial cells (VICs) differentiate into pathogenically activated myofibroblasts\, which contribute to excessive matrix deposition and eventual valve leaflet stiffening. Effective small molecule therapeutics intended to reverse myofibroblast activation remain elusive\, owing to the inherent heterogeneity of the cellular microenvironment from patient to patient. For example\, male patients show increased calcification and female patients show increased tissue fibrosis in the aortic valve microenvironment\, leading to differential drug responses. Considering these clinical observations\, we seek to engineer precision biomaterial microenvironments to recapitulate sex- and patient-specific AVS progression in vitro and identify molecular mechanisms that mediate reversal of myofibroblast activation. Precision biomaterials are defined here as engineered environments that enable the evaluation of how sex- and/or patient-specific variables may influence disease progression. As a strategy to evaluate molecular mechanisms guiding AVS progression\, we utilize poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) hydrogels as precision in vitro platforms to probe various biochemical and mechanical cues that activate male and female VICs to a myofibroblast state\, as well as cues that reverse activation (Fig. 1A). My talk will focus on two vignettes where PEG hydrogels were used to evaluate how male and female VICs activate to and reverse from a myofibroblast state in response to different cues\, including (1) serum factors from AVS patients before and after a valve replacement procedure and (2) small molecule inhibitors of myofibroblast activation. Collectively\, our work demonstrates how engineered hydrogel matrices enable an increased understanding of the molecular mechanisms guiding myofibroblast activation and reversal\, which may provide a critical bridge toward sex- and patient-specific small molecule AVS therapies. \n\nSHORT BIO\n\nDr. Brian Aguado is currently an NIH K99 and Burroughs Wellcome Fund postdoctoral fellow at the University of Colorado. His current research is focused on developing precision biomaterials for applications in personalized medicine. Dr. Aguado completed his MS and PhD in biomedical engineering from Northwestern University and his BS degree in biomechanical engineering from Stanford University. He also obtained his certificate in Management for Scientists and Engineers from the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern. Dr. Aguado is also a dedicated science communicator outside of the lab and seeks to engage underrepresented populations in the sciences. He is the former president of the Postdoctoral Association of Colorado\, organized seminars featuring underrepresented thought leaders in STEM for CU Café\, and served on the executive board for Project Bridge Colorado. Most recently\, he co-founded LatinXinBME\, a new social media initiative dedicated to building a diverse and inclusive community of Latinx biomedical engineers and scientists to support each other personally and professionally through their careers.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | From Floquet Real to Imaginary Time Crystal
DESCRIPTION:Quantum time crystal has been an intriguing many-body “time” state that has received much attention and debate since its early prediction. In this talk\, first\, I will construct a class of concrete “clean” Floquet models to answer the open question on the role of disorder and many-body localization. Second\,  by observing the equivalent role of the space and imaginary time in the path integral formalism\, I will present the finding that hard-core bosons coupled to a thermal bath may exhibit the order of  “imaginary spacetime crystal”. \n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Mechanical Engineering Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Amy Marconnet - Associate Professor at Purdue University\n\nAbstract\nNanostructuring material s allows independent control of multiple material s properties. High conductivity material s such as carbon nanotube forests are useful as thermal interface materials (TIMs) for dissipating power in electronic devices\, while low conductivity material s like nanoporous silicon for thermal barrier coatings and enhanced thermoelectric performance. Beyond thermal transport\, storage of thermal energy is critical for effective heat removal for applications involving\nhighly-transient heat fluxes\, and during material processing. Often to achieve the desired functionality\, multiples material s are combined together to form heterogeneous composites. For example\, in lithium-ion batteries\, the particulate active material s (with micro- and nano-scale features) are sandwiched between metal electrodes and polymer-based separators with microscale thicknesses to form macroscale battery cells. This seminar will discuss methods to understand and\ncontrol thermal transport and development of accurate and reliable experimental and analytical techniques for thermal characterization across multiple length scales. Further\, I will highlight the integration of material synthesis with thermal property measurements and physics-based analysis to provide new avenues for improved material s and device performance.\n\nBio\nAmy Marconnet i s an Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Purdue University. She received a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Wi Wisconsin – Madison in 2007\, and an M.S. and a PhD in Mechanical Engineering at Stanford University in 2009 and 2012\, respectively. She then worked briefly as a postdoctoral associate at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology before joining the faculty at Purdue University in 2013. Research in the Marconnet Thermal and\nEnergy Conversion (MTEC) Lab integrates metrology and analysis of underlying transport mechanisms with design and development of nanostructured material s for heat transfer and energy conversion applications.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Nam Center Colloquium Series | Re-centering Female Narratives through Murmurs and Song
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored by the Department of Ethnomusicology.\n\nIn the fields of ethnomusicology and folklore\, it has become a well-known ‘given’ that the act of singing has the power to re-position marginal voices to the center of community dialogues. When people gather to share their voices\, they both claim a public role and re-center narratives to include their experiences and their perspectives. Understood in this way\, such expressivities are key to building and nurturing fluid social relationships. This presentation focuses on the role of heungeulsori (murmuring sound)\, an individualistic and improvisatory expression of female desire and angst\, in both private and public realms. In Korea\, heungeulsori historically has served as an emotional outlet for women\, and these murmurs were often an indirect communication\, uttered on the periphery in either hopes the message could be received or\, at least\, released onto the air. Here\, I examine diverse contexts for the performance of heungeulsori and consider the ways by which performers evoke individual\, community and regional identities through pointed use of melodic and narrative tropes. By examining public presentations of a once-private form of female articulation\, the presentation touches on the ways by which concepts of genre and related expressivities transform in accordance with societal transformations and the human relationships therein. The solo voice does not act as an anomaly\, despite its power in redirecting narrative. Rather\, it engages with pre-existing social structures\, reinforcing values of social place and function alongside those of aesthetic expressions tied to women’s roles in Korean society.\n\nHilary Vanessa Finchum-Sung (Ph.D. Indiana University) is currently the Executive Director of the Association for Asian Studies. She formally served as Dean of Student Affairs at Seoul National University's College of Music and Associate Professor of Theory and Ethnomusicology in the Department of Korean Music at Seoul National University (2009-2019). In addition\, Finchum formerly taught in the MA in Asia Pacific Studies Program at University of San Francisco and served as an administrator and researcher at UC Berkeley's Institute of East Asian Studies.She is a Korean music specialist with research interests in sustainable practice in traditional Korean music performance\, musical genealogies\, gender roles and performance\, and emotion embodied through sound. Finchum has published in academic journals such as Ethnomusicology\, the world of music (new series)\, Acta Koreana and Seoul Journal of Korean Studies\, as well as contributed entries to publications such as The SAGE International Encyclopedia of Music and Culture (2019) and numerous edited volumes. She has presented papers at international conferences in the US\, Canada\, China\, Japan\, Egypt\, England and Korea as well as lectures and workshops on Korean music for organizations such as the National Gugak Center\, The National Theatre of Korea\, Korea Foundation\, UNESCO and the Asia Society of New York. In avid pursuit of musicianship\, she regularly practices and performs on the two-string spike fiddle\, haegeum.\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at least 2 weeks in advance of this event. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:High Stakes Culture: The Power of the Pronoun
DESCRIPTION:Over the past few years\, “culture wars” have been ignited across the country. Activists from all points of the political spectrum\, even the President of the United States himself\, are turning to beloved cultural objects to stake a claim for their differing beliefs in a politically fraught moment. \n\nWhat is at stake in the ways we understand culture and cultural conflict? High Stakes Culture\, a series presented by the Institute for the Humanities and the Humanities Collaboratory\, brings humanities perspectives to bear on current debates. \n\nThe Power of the Pronoun: \nThe current debate over gender-neutral pronouns plays out on college campuses\, on social media\, and in offices across the country. Why are we thinking about pronouns in new ways? What are the politics and the history of the pronoun? And what do the conversations we are having about them reveal about American culture in this moment? \n\nCome talk to humanities scholars who work on questions like these and others you might have about the power of the pronoun.

SUMMARY:Performance:Yandong Grand Singers
DESCRIPTION:Center for World Performance Studies and Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies present the Yandong Grand Singers at the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre on September 24\, 2019 at 7:30pm. In bright voices and natural harmonies shaped by the unique environment of the area\, the Dong people of Guizhou\, China sing about nature\, romantic love\, history and moral values. For the Dong people\, Grand Song is an indispensable part of life\, just as their saying goes\, “rice feeds the body–but songs feed the soul”. The Dong people transmit much of their history\, culture and knowledge through songs that accompany them throughout their lives. Choirs of children\, young and senior people are formed in every village\, representing  a crucial symbol of Dong ethnic identity and cultural heritage.\n\nThe Yandong Grand Singers is a choir formed by farmers from Yandong Village\, specializing in the “Grand Song” of the Dong people -  polyphonic music known to the world only in recent decades. The repertoire includes a range of genres such as ballads\, children’s songs\, songs of greeting and imitative songs that test performers’ virtuosity at mimicking the sounds of animals. Taught by masters to choirs of disciples\, Grand Songs are performed formally in the drum-tower\, the landmark venue for rituals\, entertainment and meetings in a Dong village\, or more spontaneously in homes or public places. In 2009\, the Dong musical tradition was listed by UNESCO as an intangible cultural heritage in China. This will mark the group’s first full US tour\, having previously appeared at Carnegie Hall China Festival and the International International Festival for Vocal Music in Leipzig\, Germany.\n\nCWPS events are free and open to the public. Visit www.lsa.umich.edu/world-performance for more info. If you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to participate in this event\, please contact the Center for World Performance Studies\, at 734-936-2777\, at least one week in advance of this event. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the University to arrange.\n\nThis event is supported by the Office of the Vice Provost for Global Engagement and Interdisciplinary Academic Affairs.

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: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: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: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:Exhibition:Border Control: Traversing Horizons in Media Practice
DESCRIPTION:In September 2019\, the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design will host the New Media Caucus 2019 Symposium and Exhibition\, Border Control.  Symposium and exhibition events will take place in Ann Arbor at the Stamps School of Art and Design (2000 Bonisteel Blvd.) and Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.).\n\nExhibition Dates: September 20 - November 10\, 2019\nSymposium Dates: September 19 - 22\, 2019\nGuest Curator: Allison Collins\, Media Arts Curator\, Western Front\n\nCurated by Allison Collins in collaboration with Carrie Edinger and Srimoyee Mitra.\nIn partnership with the New Media Caucus \n\nHuman migration is a defining issue of the 21st century\, often calling into question the relevance\, role\, and responsibilities of national borders across the globe. As individuals seek refuge from geopolitical and environmental forces\, we become an increasingly globalized community. Demarcations of all types are simultaneously porous and closed\, defensive and receptive\, and seen in almost every facet of our existence. Border Control responds to these conditions with an open-ended question\, asking: “How has humanity made sense of the world in relation to borders and boundaries\, both physically and psychologically?” While positioned within (or outside of) defined spaces and identities\, human refusal of such literal definitions is paramount. Even while lines drawn have important consequences for lived reality\, the winds\, currents\, and natural energies of the Earth deny enclosures and definitions that politics and maps might suggest.\n\nDrawn from practices that are touched or driven by new media\, Border Control assembles works by artists who consider geographical contexts\, patterns of migration\, displacement\, and statelessness. Collectively\, they offer projects with subterfuge\, refusal\, and reconsideration of imposed state-sanctioned boundaries.\n\n \n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Walter Oltmann
DESCRIPTION:Infant Skull II\, a woven “tapestry” made out of very fine aluminum wire\, only reveals its shape when seen from afar. Drawing inspiration from his country’s basketry traditions\, the South African artist Walter Oltmann (b. 1960) alternates densely layered sections with open spaces\, allowing the underlying surface of the work to show through. The skull that emerges is\, in a South African context\, evocative of the Cradle of Humankind—a series of caves outside Johannesburg\, where some of the oldest hominin fossils in the world have been found.\n \nThe work complements UMMA’s renowned and growing collection of historical and contemporary African art and reminds us of the central role of Africa in the history of humankind. The purchase was made possible thanks to the generosity of UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee.\n\nThis acquisition was made possible by the generosity of the UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee\, 2016.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:HET Brown Bag Seminars | Improving Numerical Integration and Event Generation with Normalizing Flows
DESCRIPTION:With the upcoming HL-LHC\, the budget for computing will be insufficient to generate a sufficient amount of Monte-Carlo events for both signal and background predictions. The driving force behind these costs is the inefficiency of the Monte-Carlo phase space generators and the unweighting efficiencies.\nAfter a short review of traditional algorithms\, I will introduce a new Machine Learning algorithm that uses Normalizing Flows for efficient numerical integration and random sampling. This approach is especially efficient in high-dimensional integration spaces. I will show some preliminary results obtained with the matrix element generator of Sherpa and discuss different choices of hyperparameters and their influence on the result.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Michigan Program in Survey Methodology and the Joint Program in Survey Methodology Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Improving Data Quality for Web Surveys in Real Time through Predictive Modeling Using Paradata\n\nParadata are a rich source of data that are collected through little additional effort by researchers. However\, paradata are often underutilized. This study suggests a novel approach to use paradata to alter the survey itself in real time in order to improve data quality.\n\nThrough a predictive model\, paradata about the responses will be utilized to alter the presentation of the survey questions themselves. First\, if respondents straight-line through a grid section of the survey\, following grids could be changed to single item questions in order to discourage straight-lining. Second\, if respondents display multiple indicators of poor data quality\, key questions could be moved forward in the survey to present earlier. This second option reduces survey length\, lowers cognitive burden for respondents that are taking short cuts\, and prevents drop-offs. Both of these techniques could help to improve data quality.\n\nThough programming a survey to adapt in real time may involve a large effort in the beginning\, once employed it could be used across projects for little additional cost. Improving data quality should be a goal of everyone in the survey research community. As web surveys continue to increase in frequency of implementation\, the focus on data quality of this mode should be a priority.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Sandwiches and Science: Training (for) Better Presentations Graduate Speaker Series
DESCRIPTION:**Fall 2019 KICK-OFF WORKSHOP SEPTEMBER 23RD**\n\nSandwiches and Science: Training (for) Better Presentations marks the third run of the professional development event hosted by Tau Beta Pi aimed at providing Michigan Engineering graduate students the opportunity to enhance their scientific communication skills. The series will be co-hosted/sponsored by TBP and the graduate societies of MSE\, ECE\, ChE\, and MACRO and also sponsored by the Office of Student Affairs! As \"learning-by-practice\" event\, it aims to help students learn how to effectively convey the \"big picture\" value of their research to a diverse audience\, while also engaging a dialog of science and engineering research among graduate students across the entire College of Engineering. The event is aimed primarily at graduate students planning to take their candidacy exam\, but anyone is welcome to participate! We will host 7-10 events each term\, and event dates/times will be announced on a rolling basis. \n\nEach session is structured to have student speakers (2-3 per session) make a timed (15-20 min) presentation on their graduate research to a broad engineering audience and a communications expert panel (3-4 panelists). Our expert panelists will provide constructive feedback to the speakers (and the audience)\, highlighting the positive aspects of each presentation and also indicating opportunities for improvement. This structure will allow for the speakers to receive specific feedback on their communication skills\, while also providing the audience with generalized guidelines for good scientific communication.\n\nIf you would like to participate as a speaker/audience\, please fill out the links below. We will follow-up with you with scheduling details. NOTE: The event is open to ALL CoE students\, regardless of TBP membership status.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Social Area Brown Bag Talk - Information Targeting Increases the Weight of Stigma: Leveraging Relevance Backfires When Recipients Feel Judged
DESCRIPTION:Although relevance is viewed as a panacea for persuasion\, there may be contexts in which attempts to leverage relevance backfire. Across two experiments\, we investigated conditions under which signaling personal relevance\, via targeting information to audiences based on identities\, backfires. In particular\, we assessed how activation of personal characteristics (e.g.\, identities\, health goals\, and both identities and goals)\, as well as context cues (e.g.\, time of year)\, impact persuasion. Because people with higher body mass indexes (BMIs) are frequently targets of weight stigma\, particularly within health contexts\, we expected that perceiving relevance based on weight identities would elicit identity threat and subsequently inhibit persuasion for people with higher\, versus lower\, BMIs. Across studies\, participants were told they received information about obesity due to chance (control condition)\, or after providing their demographics (e.g.\, weight status\; Studies 1–2)\, health goals (Study 2)\, or demographics and goals (Study 2). Findings revealed that\, particularly for participants with higher BMIs\, being targeted to receive information about obesity and obesity-related illness increased perceived relevance among recipients\, which predicted increases in irritation and self-conscious emotions. Negative emotional responding produced heterogenous\, but primarily deleterious\, effects on self-efficacy and behavioral intentions to engage in healthy behavior because recipients felt unfairly judged (Study 2). Study 2 determined that targeting on goals and changes in context (e.g.\, stronger beliefs that change is possible at New Year's) decreased the link between perceived relevance and feeling judged. Collectively\, this work shows that leveraging message relevance may inhibit persuasion for target audiences when they feel unfairly judged.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:American Dialogue
DESCRIPTION:This study group will discuss the ideas in “American Dialogue: The Founders and Us”\, by Joseph J. Ellis. Ellis positions our contemporary debates on race\, income inequality\, jurisprudence\, and foreign policy in their historical context through dialogue with four founders—Jefferson\, Adams\, Madison\, and Washington. \n\nFollowing Ellis\, the study group will engage in its own American dialogue between then and now\, enabling an interactive process through which we can frame current issues in light of their historical origins and see our founders through a modern lens. The book will be available at Literati Bookstore. Additional readings to be supplied.\n\nThis study group for those 50 and over will be led by instructors John Roundtree and Larry Berlin and will meet for two hours on Wednesdays\, from September 25 through November 6\, (no class on October 9).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:H. Metin Aktulga: Towards Fast\, Scalable and High Fidelity Reactive Molecular Dynamics Simulations
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Reactive molecular dynamics (RMD) models bridge quantum-scale and classical MD approaches by explicitly modeling bond activity and redistribution of charges. As such they enable the study of important phenomena which otherwise is impractical using classical or quantum techniques. However\, RMD models have a significantly complex formulation\, making fast\, scalable and high fidelity RMD simulations extremely challenging to achieve. In this talk\, I will present our work towards addressing both the scalability and fidelity challenges. I will start by describing the parallel algorithms and numerical techniques that we developed for a fast implementation of the Reax Force Field (ReaxFF)\, which is used by hundreds of researchers worldwide. Particular emphasis will be on novel solvers we recently developed for the dynamic charge distribution problem that constitutes the most important scalability bottleneck in large RMD simulations. I will conclude the talk by outlining our efforts towards addressing the fidelity challenge\, i) through an automated force field framework for RMD models\, ii) by developing a novel hybrid ReaxFF/AMBER simulation software in the spirit of QM/MM techniques.\n\nBio: H. Metin Aktulga received his B.S. degree from Bilkent University in 2004\, M.S. and Ph.D. degrees from Purdue University in 2009 and 2010\, respectively\; all in Computer Science. Before joining the Michigan State University (MSU) in 2014\, he was a postdoctoral researcher in the Computational Research Division at the Lawrence Berkeley Lab.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EER Seminar Series (Engineering Education Research)
DESCRIPTION:TITLE:  Advancing Evidence-based Biomedical Engineering Education in Real Time\n\nUndergraduate biomedical engineering (BME) programs typically consist of courses from several different academic departments combined with BME-specific courses taught by faculty trained in a variety of disciplines. While some students embrace this diversity in courses and disciplinary perspectives\, many struggle with how to translate these experiences into career opportunities. BME students are often concerned that they are perceived as a “jack of all trades\, masters of none.” In 2016\, the BME Department sought to find new ways to integrate BME professional practice into the curriculum. \n\nInformed by organizational change theory\, we asked: 1) Is there potential for change\; 2) what strategies facilitate change\; and 3) how can these strategies be implemented? As a result\, we developed an Instructional Design Sequence\, a new approach to instruction in which students\, post docs\, and faculty create short modules that use evidence-based teaching practices to expose BME students to BME professional practice. \n\nThis presentation describes how the Instructional Design Sequence was conceived and demonstrates how theory can be used to inform practice. The resultant Sequence is a transferrable model for transforming engineering education\, offering a mechanism for integrating new career-relevant curriculum into undergraduate curriculum\, while training future educators in evidence-based instructional practices.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:\"The Education of an Idealist\,\" The 3rd Annual Vandenberg Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public. This event will be live-webstreamed\, check event website right before the event for viewing details.\nReception and book signing to follow.\n\n\nAbout the event:\nJoin us for an arm-chair conversation between Ambassador Samantha Power and Professor John Ciorciari\, Director of the Weiser Diplomacy Center\, as they discuss Ambassador Power’s distinguished career and her just-published book\, The Education of an Idealist. This memoir traces Power’s distinctly American journey\, from Irish immigrant to human rights activist to United States Ambassador to the United Nations. Power’s perspective on government is unique\, as she takes us from the streets of war-torn Bosnia to the Situation Room and out into the world of high-stakes diplomacy.\n\n\nAbout the Vandenberg Lecture Series:\nThe Meijer Family established the Vandenberg Fund to honor U.S. Senator Arthur Vandenberg\, who served the State of Michigan in the U.S. Senate from 1928-1951. Senator Vandenberg forged bipartisan support for our country's most significant and enduring foreign policies of the twentieth century\, including the Truman Doctrine\, the Marshall Plan\, NATO and the creation of the United Nations.\n\n \nAbout the WDC lecture series:\nThis event forms part of the series in celebration of the launch of the Weiser Diplomacy Center (WDC)\, housed in the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy. WDC is a hub for practical training and policy dialogue on diplomacy and foreign affairs. WDC trains students for careers in international service\, provides a meeting point for academics and practitioners\, and serves as a bridge between U-M and the foreign policy community. WDC engages Professors of Practice and regular visiting practitioners and aims to be one of the country’s leading loci for the study of foreign affairs.\n\nHosted as part of the Ford School's Conversations Across Difference Initiative.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Asmarina: Voices and Images of a Postcolonial Heritage
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a screening of Medhin Paolos' film\, Asmarina: Voices and Images of a Postcolonial Heritage. Following the screening\, Medhin Paolos will join a Q&A with students and faculty members\,  discuss her professional trajectories\, their motivation\, the filmmaking process\, its reception and other related issues.\n\nOf Eritrean origin\, Medhin Paolos is an Italian filmmaker\, photographer\, electronic musician and social justice activist. She is currently an Associate Fellow in Latino/a Studies at the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures at Harvard University. Her first film Asmarina (2015)\, which she co-directed with Alan Maglio\, narrates the presence of the habesha (Eritrean/Ethiopian) community in the city of Milan through the collective memories of the community recorded in personal archives through photo documents\, music and stories\, exploring the different shades of identity\, migration and the aspirations of the African people. In contrast to media narratives that portray African immigration to Italy as a recent phenomenon\, Asmarina offers another vision of the African diaspora in Italy\, one that demonstrates the long-standing presence of Eritrean and Ethiopian communities\, as well as their contributions to the development of Italian postwar national identity. Asmarina is also study of contemporary Italy\, currently dealing with a rise in xenophobic attacks against African migrants\, ongoing migrant catastrophes in the Mediterranean\, and the struggle of second-generation Italians of African descent to gain full citizenship rights. \n\nMedhin Paolos holds a BFA from NABA-Nuova Accademia di Belle Arti in Milan. For ten years (1999-2009)\, she was part of the folk-electronic band Fiamma Fumana. Paolos is the co-founder of the Milano chapter of Rete G2 (Second Generation Network)\, a national organization that promotes the human and civic rights of children of immigrants in Italy. Currently\, she is conceptualizing an educational platform for bringing forth a plurality voices\, histories\, and cultures to the forefront through media artistic interventions.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | New Realms in Coherent Light-Matter Interactions
DESCRIPTION:Light-matter interactions are at the heart of quantum electrodynamics and underpin modern photonic technologies. As we develop means to control the properties of light\, matter and their interactions\, intriguing new phenomena emerge.  Using a designer polariton platform we have developed\, we reveal a long sought after Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer like phase in a particle-hole-photon strongly-coupled system.  Coupling two trapped polariton condensates through both coherent tunneling and incoherent dissipation\, we form a model system of rich nonlinear dynamics where new\, equidistant frequency lines emerge via the limit cycles at Hopft bifurcation. Using two-dimensional monolayer crystals with exceptionally strong light-matter interactions\, we control the exciton-photon interactions from the incoherent limit to the coherent limit with simple mirrors and laser pulses\, showing the promise of the system for photonic applications based on coherent light-matter interactions. Combining different monolayers to form atomically-thin heterostructures\, we obtain a platform that allows versatile control over both the photon modes and matter excitations\, where we create long-lived valley excitons\, ultra-thin lasers\, and moire-lattice induced hybrid dipolar excitons and polaritons. \n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AE Chair's Distinguished Seminar Series: \"PDE-Based Approaches to Large Scale UAS coordination and Traffic Management\"
DESCRIPTION:This presentation discusses continuum deformation modeling of coordination of a large number of aerial vehicles treated as particles of deformable bodies (or continuum). Assuming desired coordination of an unmanned aerial system (UAS) team is the solution of Laplace equation\, Lagrangian and Eulerian continuum mechanics will be applied to safely plan UAS coordination in a finite airspace. The Lagrangian continuum mechanics is used to manage large-scale coordination of a UAS team in a cluttered environment when the total number of agents is fixed. In this context\, we optimize a large-scale continuum deformation coordination\, and formally specify and verify collision-free collective motion with minimal communication and computation overhead\, enabling distance between individual UAVs to significantly change while assuring the vehicles do not collide. Furthermore\, the Eulerian continuum mechanics can be applied to achieve freely scalable coordination and manage traffic coordination in a finite airspace. Using the Eulerian description of continuum mechanics\, the space and time allocated to an individual UAS can be effectively managed and the airspace capacity can be maximized through controlling UAS inflow and outflow at the airspace boundaries with minimum computation overhead. In particular\, the airspace can be classified into planned and unplanned spaces by dynamically updating planned-unplanned airspace boundaries while nominal coordination is obtained as the solution of a governing PDE with spatiotemporal cyber-physical parameters. The unifying nature of Laplace equation and its application to Aerospace control problems will also be highlighted.\n\n\nAbout the Speaker:\n\nDr. Hossein Rastgoftar is an Assistant Research Scientist in the Aerospace Engineering Department at the University of Michigan. Prior to that he was a postdoctoral researcher with Professor Ella Atkins at the University of Michigan from 2015-2017. He received his Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from Drexel University in 2015. Hossein has two MS degrees (one in Mechanical Systems and the other in Solid Mechanics) and a BSc degree in Mechanical Engineering-Thermo-Fluids. Dr. Rastgoftar has worked on decision-making\, optimization\, large-scale UAS coordination\, traffic control\, and autonomy over the past four years at the University of Michigan\, and has published several archival journal papers and peer-reviewed conference papers. He is the sole author of the book “Continuum Deformation of Multi-Agent System” published by Springer-Birkhauser (https://www.springer.com/gp/book/9783319415932).

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: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:Workshop / Seminar:BME Seminar: Ajit Joglekar\, Ph.D.
DESCRIPTION:Synthetic chromosomes have the potential to revolutionize gene therapy\, because they can deliver entire genetic programs. However\, this strategy can succeed only if the synthetic chromosomes are faithfully transmitted to each daughter cell upon cell division. Eukaryotic cells use the kinetochore\, an immensely complex protein machine\, to segregate their native chromosome during cell division. We are initiating an effort to engineer a synthetic kinetochore to faithfully segregate synthetic chromosomes. This ambitious goal encompasses three aims. First\, we will use bottom-up reverse engineering to yield deep insight into function and regulation of the kinetochore\, potentially exposing unexpected gaps in our understanding. Second\, we will identify functionally necessary kinetochore components from those that are its ‘evolutionary legacy’. This is necessary to reveal strategies for simplifying the design of the synthetic kinetochore. Third\, we will establish the blueprint for designing a synthetic\, orthogonal segregation machine that specifically controls the inheritance of synthetic chromosomes.

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: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:Lecture / Discussion: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
DESCRIPTION:Legal Apartheid was politically\, legally and procedurally dismantled after a protracted antiapartheid struggle in South Africa in 1994. South Africa’s first racially inclusive election on April 26\, 1994 literally and symbolically marked this legal ending\, after four years of tense and at times violent negotiations between the leaders of Apartheid South Africa and those of the antiapartheid movements. \n\nHowever\, 25 years after this hopeful and euphoric historical moment the dead are still being counted\, the transmutation of formal apartheid into social and economic apartheid is all but complete and the legacy of Apartheid’s crimes endure – threatening the very dream of Nelson Mandela’s vision for a nonracial\, nonsexist\, equal and just political system in South Africa. This lecture will critically engage the political\, legal and moral failures of state responsibilities to international humanitarian and human rights law and the state’s political\, legal and moral management of the freedom moment.\n\nYazier Henry teaches at the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy at the University of Michigan. He is a public intellectual\, strategist\, conflict management expert\, teacher\, facilitator\, scholar\, professional human rights advocate\, and poet. His research and writing priorities focus on the interrelationship and intersections of structural\, systemic\, institutional\, and administrative violence. He is particularly interested in the politics and economics of human rights and the social violence of the law. His current work is on how state violence becomes systemically structured and institutionalized during political transitions in the global south.\n\nThis is the third in a six-lecture series. The subject is South Africa: Past\, Present\, and a Look Forward. The next lecture will be October 3\, 2019. The title is: Education Inequality and Income Inequality in South Africa since the End of Apartheid.

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:Conference / Symposium:“Mobilizing ‘Blackness’: From the Haitian Revolution to Now”
DESCRIPTION:From Negritude\, to the Anti-Apartheid movement\, to Mizrahi Jewish claims to being Black Panthers\, to Asian/African/Caribbean coalitions in the United Kingdom\, to articulations by German and French youth today\, this symposium will address the ways in which “Blackness” has been mobilized to make claims on state and other resources.  It will engage the anti-normative forms of living Blackness has enabled. Given these histories and contemporary articulations\, it asks: Who can claim Blackness? Under what conditions and with what effect can one make this claim? To what extent does claiming Blackness lead to social change? What are the conditions for coalition around claiming Blackness? Does racism persist\, even amongst people of color\, in spite of this coalitional claim?\n\nThe symposium is free and open to the public and will include a special screening of the documentary Whose Streets? (2018) and the short What Kind of Power Y’All Got (2016) with a Q&A with the filmmakers to follow in Lecture Hall II of the Modern Language Building on Friday\, September 27 at 7 PM.\n\nIf you have any questions\, please contact Damani Partridge (djpartri@umich.edu)\n\nView the schedule online: myumi.ch/zxKNx

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

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

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

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Border Control: Traversing Horizons in Media Practice
DESCRIPTION:In September 2019\, the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design will host the New Media Caucus 2019 Symposium and Exhibition\, Border Control.  Symposium and exhibition events will take place in Ann Arbor at the Stamps School of Art and Design (2000 Bonisteel Blvd.) and Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.).\n\nExhibition Dates: September 20 - November 10\, 2019\nSymposium Dates: September 19 - 22\, 2019\nGuest Curator: Allison Collins\, Media Arts Curator\, Western Front\n\nCurated by Allison Collins in collaboration with Carrie Edinger and Srimoyee Mitra.\nIn partnership with the New Media Caucus \n\nHuman migration is a defining issue of the 21st century\, often calling into question the relevance\, role\, and responsibilities of national borders across the globe. As individuals seek refuge from geopolitical and environmental forces\, we become an increasingly globalized community. Demarcations of all types are simultaneously porous and closed\, defensive and receptive\, and seen in almost every facet of our existence. Border Control responds to these conditions with an open-ended question\, asking: “How has humanity made sense of the world in relation to borders and boundaries\, both physically and psychologically?” While positioned within (or outside of) defined spaces and identities\, human refusal of such literal definitions is paramount. Even while lines drawn have important consequences for lived reality\, the winds\, currents\, and natural energies of the Earth deny enclosures and definitions that politics and maps might suggest.\n\nDrawn from practices that are touched or driven by new media\, Border Control assembles works by artists who consider geographical contexts\, patterns of migration\, displacement\, and statelessness. Collectively\, they offer projects with subterfuge\, refusal\, and reconsideration of imposed state-sanctioned boundaries.\n\n \n\n

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: Walter Oltmann
DESCRIPTION:Infant Skull II\, a woven “tapestry” made out of very fine aluminum wire\, only reveals its shape when seen from afar. Drawing inspiration from his country’s basketry traditions\, the South African artist Walter Oltmann (b. 1960) alternates densely layered sections with open spaces\, allowing the underlying surface of the work to show through. The skull that emerges is\, in a South African context\, evocative of the Cradle of Humankind—a series of caves outside Johannesburg\, where some of the oldest hominin fossils in the world have been found.\n \nThe work complements UMMA’s renowned and growing collection of historical and contemporary African art and reminds us of the central role of Africa in the history of humankind. The purchase was made possible thanks to the generosity of UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee.\n\nThis acquisition was made possible by the generosity of the UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee\, 2016.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Defense Dissertation: Impact of Neutral Density on the Operation of High-Power Magnetically Shielded Hall Thrusters
DESCRIPTION:Dissertation Committee Names:\n\nProfessor Alec D. Gallimore\, Co-Chair\nAssistant Professor Benjamin A. Jorns\, Co-Chair\nProfessor John E. Foster\, Cognate\nDr. Richard R. Hofer\, Member\n\nPresentation Info:\n\nThursday\, September 26th 2 PM\nJohnsons Room\, LEC\n\nThis work examines two innovative technologies in high-power electric propulsion – magnetic shielding and nesting channels. Magnetic shielding increases the lifetime of Hall thrusters by three orders of magnitude\, while nested Hall thrusters allow these devices to be scaled to the very high powers necessary for Mars missions.  Despite these advancements\, there remain open questions about the exact implications on Hall thruster operation. These open questions pose large risks for transitioning the thrusters to flight. One of the most critical is how neutral gas particles emanating from various sources influence the overall performance and lifetime of these thrusters. There exist several sources of neutrals such as the background facility pressure\, the cathode\, and adjacent channels on nested Hall thrusters.  As such\, we investigate here the neutral density impacts on the operation of high-power Hall thrusters. In summary\, we show that neutrals shift and compress the plasma\, which leads to an increase thrust and efficiency with higher neutral density. Additionally\, we find that these neutrals can change the near-wall ion behavior\, which affects the erosion and overall lifetime. Ultimately\, we have improved our understanding of the mechanisms behind neutral impacts on the performance and lifetime of magnetically shielded and nested Hall thrusters.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Departmental Seminar (899): Shima Nassiri\, University of Michigan
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:\nReference Pricing for Healthcare Services\n\nAbstract:\nThe traditional payment system between an insurer and providers does not incentivize providers to limit their prices nor patients to choose less expensive providers\, hence contributing to high insurer expenditures. Reference pricing has been proposed as a way to better align incentives and control the rising costs of healthcare. In this payment system\, the insurer determines the maximum amount that can be reimbursed for a procedure (reference price). If a patient selects a provider charging more than the reference price\, the patient is responsible for the entire portion above it. We propose a model to analyze the reference pricing payment scheme. Our model incorporates an insurer who chooses the reference price\, multiple competing price-setting providers\, and heterogeneous patients who select a provider based on a multinomial logit choice model. Our goal is to understand how reference pricing compares with payment systems where patients pay a fixed or a variable amount. We find that the highest-priced providers under a fixed payment system cut their prices under reference pricing. Moreover\, reference pricing often outperforms the fixed and the variable payment system both in terms of expected patient utility and insurer cost\, unless the procedure cost is high in relation to the reference price (i.e.\, the reference price is low). The entire system also benefits from reference pricing despite a loss in provider profit due to lower prices. Furthermore\, reference pricing with a variable portion below the reference price tends to perform worse than reference pricing with a fixed payment below the reference price.\n\nBio:\nDr. Shima Nassiri is an assistant professor of technology and operations at the University of Michigan Ross School of Business. Her research interests involve (a) designing coordination mechanisms in supply chain and its applications in healthcare and public health policy using game theory and optimization techniques\, and (b) studying the behavioral aspects of healthcare operations using econometrics and data-driven methods. She is particularly interested in studying the healthcare policies that are aiming to reduce healthcare expenditure by moving towards performance-based care. She received her Ph.D. from the Foster School of Business at the University of Washington.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CLASP Seminar Series: Dr. Annmarie Eldering
DESCRIPTION:CLASP is very pleased to welcome Dr. Annmarie Eldering of NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory. \n\nDr. Eldering will give a presentation titled: \n\"Watching the Earth Breathe from the International Space Station\"\n\nAbstract: In May 2019\, the Orbiting Carbon Observatory-3 (OCO-3) was installed on the International Space Station (ISS). A follow-on to the still-active OCO-2 mission\, OCO-3 will bring not only a new vantage point but new techniques and new technologies to NASA's carbon dioxide observations. OCO-3 is a 3-band grating spectrometer that measures sunlight reflected from Earth’s surface\, and it can make extremely precise measurements of atmospheric carbon dioxide\, sensing changes of less than 1ppm (relative to today’s concentrations that are about 400ppm). The space station circles Earth from 52 degrees north to 52 degrees south latitudes — about the latitudes of London and Patagonia. The vast majority of Earth's cities and agricultural lands\, responsible for most of our planet's carbon absorption and emissions\, fall within this zone. Where OCO-2's polar orbit takes it over each location at exactly the same time of day\, the space station's orbit will put OCO-3 over each location at a slightly different time on every orbit. OCO-3 will demonstrate a new technique to measure urban carbon emissions\, volcanic eruptions and other local carbon sources from space. This scanning technique\, enabled by the instrument's ability to swivel and point rapidly\, produces a tightly woven blanket of measurements over an area of about 50 by 50 miles (80 by 80 kilometers) — about the size of the Los Angeles Basin.\nAnnmarie Eldering\, the Project Scientist for OCO-3 will share some of the latest news and data from OCO-3\, as well as the goals for the three year measurement campaign from the ISS.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:ASC Lecture. Finding the South in the Global South
DESCRIPTION:Is there such a thing as ‘world literature from the global south’? Perhaps the strongest conjunction between the theories of the global south and world literature is the interest in the political scope of literature. How can we imagine a literary canon that consolidates or prompts modes of political action\, thereby bringing the political imperatives of the south or of regionalism to bear on the global scope of world literature? It sounds like a great deal of detective work. As such\, this talk will present the case of uncanny affiliation between detective fiction north and south of the Mediterranean\, starting from Sicily and Alexandria going via Paris\, Liège and mediaeval Arabia. Whodunit? Everybody. That is what world literature means. But why? That is the imperative of the global south.\n\nThis event is made possible by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation though the grant Global Humanities in Egypt and the Global South

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Author's Forum Presents: \"Eva Palmer Sikelianos: A Life in Ruins\"
DESCRIPTION:Artemis Leontis (modern Greek and comparative literature) and Yopie Prins (English and comparative literature) discuss Leontis's new book \"Eva Palmer Sikelianos: A Life in Ruins.\" Q & A follows the conversation.\n\nAbout the book:\nThis is the first biography to tell the fascinating story of Eva Palmer Sikelianos (1874–1952)\, an American actor\, director\, composer\, and weaver best known for reviving the Delphic Festivals. Yet\, as Artemis Leontis reveals\, Palmer’s most spectacular performance was her daily revival of ancient Greek life. For almost half a century\, dressed in handmade Greek tunics and sandals\, she sought to make modern life freer and more beautiful through a creative engagement with the ancients. Along the way\, she crossed paths with other seminal modern artists such as Natalie Clifford Barney\, Renée Vivien\, Isadora Duncan\, Susan Glaspell\, George Cram Cook\, Richard Strauss\, Dimitri Mitropoulos\, Nikos Kazantzakis\, George Seferis\, Henry Miller\, Paul Robeson\, and Ted Shawn.\n\nBrilliant and gorgeous\, with floor-length auburn hair\, Palmer was a wealthy New York debutante who studied Greek at Bryn Mawr College before turning her back on conventional society to live a lesbian life in Paris. She later followed Raymond Duncan (brother of Isadora) and his wife to Greece and married the Greek poet Angelos Sikelianos in 1907. With single-minded purpose\, Palmer re-created ancient art forms\, staging Greek tragedy with her own choreography\, costumes\, and even music. Having exhausted her inheritance\, she returned to the United States in 1933\, was blacklisted for criticizing American imperialism during the Cold War\, and was barred from returning to Greece until just before her death.\n\nDrawing on hundreds of newly discovered letters and featuring many previously unpublished photographs\, this biography vividly re-creates the unforgettable story of a remarkable nonconformist whom one contemporary described as “the only ancient Greek I ever knew.”

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Thursday Seminar: The evolution of mammalian pregnancy: the path from pathology to physiology
DESCRIPTION:There is a broadly recognized ambiguity in the relationship between mammalian (eutherian) pregnancy and inflammation. During implantation\, inflammatory pathways are activated and important for successful implantation\, but during the second trimester\, intrauterine inflammation is a grave threat to the continuation of pregnancy. An investigation of the gene expression changes during opossum pregnancy led us to propose and test a model for the origin of eutherian implantation and pregnancy. In brief: if we take the opossum gestation as a model of the situation at the most recent common ancestor of marsupials and placental mammals\, the evidence suggests that an acute inflammation is the result of the attachment of the trophoblast to the uterine epithelium. The difference between opossum and the eutherians is the outcome: In opossum the inflammation directly leads to parturition\, while in eutherians inflammation never leads to neutrophil infiltration and soon is turned off. I will present evidence suggesting that one key innovation to achieve sustainable implantation was the origin of the decidual cell\, which prevents the recruitment of neutrophils and thus prevents the development of an acute inflammation during implantation.\n\nView YouTube video of seminar: https://youtu.be/cec0A_iwmLI

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:WCED Lecture. Battle Scars: The Middle East After the Arab Uprisings
DESCRIPTION:Eight years after the dizzying hopes raised by the Arab Spring\, the Middle East is consumed by a bewildering array of conflicts\, from wars in Libya\, Yemen\, Syria and Iraq to new popular uprisings in Algeria and Sudan. What explains these interlocking conflicts—and where does the United States fit in? And how does it all relate to Iran's escalating conflict with America\, Israel\, and Saudi Arabia? Lynch will explain how the Arab Spring fundamentally upended regional order in the Middle East\, and how difficult it will be to put any new stable order back into place.\n   \n   Marc Lynch is Professor of Political Science at The George Washington University. He is the director of the Project on Middle East Political Science (POMEPS)\, Associate Editor of The Monkey Cage at the Washington Post\, and a Non-Resident Senior Associate at the Carnegie Middle East Program. His most recent book was \"The New Arab Wars.\"\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at weisercenter@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Ibrahim Mahama: Failures Promises
DESCRIPTION:Ibrahim Mahama is a Ghanaian artist who considers the ways in which capital and labor are expressed in common materials through large-scale installations. In Occupation Series\, Mahama focused on the jute sacks that are synonymous with the trade markets of Ghana where he lives and works. Fabricated in Southeast Asia\, the sacks are imported by the Ghana Cocoa Boards to transport cocoa beans and eventually end up as multi-functional objects\, used for the transportation of food\, charcoal\, and other commodities. Often exploring the potentialities and failures of modernity\, Mahama’s work uses materials and forms that present us with alternative perspectives through which to view the conditions of contemporary society\, labor\, and the “politics of the hand.” His most recent work\, A Straight Line Through the Carcass of History\, has also dealt with forms related to the second world war and bacteria life. Mahama obtained an MFA in painting and sculpture in 2013 and a BFA in painting in 2010 at Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology in Kumasi\, Ghana. His work has been included in the 56th and 57th Venice Biennale\, and has been exhibited internationally. He was an artist-in-residence with the Berliner Künstlerprogramm in 2018.\n\n Co-presented with the Institute for the Humanities.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Imperial Allusion for the Masses: Awash in Innuendo at the Baths of Caracalla
DESCRIPTION:Throughout the Roman Empire\, bathing was a highlight of the day and a major social event. In fact\, baths were so valued that their patronage became a powerful public relations tool and greatly enhanced one's popular and political clout. It is hardly surprising\, then\, that as a spectacular gift to the people\, the emperors commissioned eight magnificent baths in the city of Rome between 25 BCE - 337 CE. This lecture brings the lived and visual experience of Roman baths into dialogue with the original appearance of these monuments\, while also addressing the underlying ambitions of imperial patrons.\n\nThis lecture analyzes the extensive decoration of the best preserved of these complexes\, the Baths of Caracalla (inaugurated 216 C.E.). This decoration was a carefully strategized ensemble\, meant to impart a particular message to a diverse Roman audience. I examine the subtext of this sumptuous display\, addressing the visual experience of the baths and elucidating the decoration's critical role in articulating innuendo and advancing imperial agendas. The case studies addressed herein\, ranging from architectural to freestanding sculpture and mosaic\, demonstrate that endowing monumental baths was a concern of dynastic legitimacy and imperial largess\, and that decorative programs articulated these themes by consistently drawing analogies between the subjects of the decoration and the emperor who had paid for it. Decorative choices were by no means incidental\, but rather purposeful decisions by Caracalla and his architect to honor the emperor and to consolidate his power and reputation.\n\nSponsored by the Ann Arbor Society of the Archaeological Institute of America\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this lecture\, please contact the Kelsey Museum Education Office (734-647-4167) as soon as possible. We ask for advance notice as some accommodations may require more time for the University to arrange.

SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:Togetherness: QTIPOC Dinners - September
DESCRIPTION:QTIPOC Dinners are a series of events MESA and Spectrum Center have created together to center the experiences of queer and trans indigenous students & students of color in a relaxed environment. Each dinner is hosted by a local individual we believe can bring a lot to the metaphorical (and actual) table and free food is provided to all who attend. This dinner will feature food from Baba Dari Mediterranean Grill including Chicken Shawarma bowls\, Falafel bowls\, and Fattoush Salad\n\nThis month's host is Dominique Canning. Here's a little more about her:\nDominique is a Ph.D. candidate in Linguistics (with a focus on sociolinguistics and phonetics) and in her 4th year at the University of Michigan. She graduated in 2016 from Eastern Michigan University (EMU) where she was part of the McNair Scholars Program.\n\nDominique’s research is partially motivated by her own identity as a queer woman of color. She identifies as aromantic asexual and is frequently conscious of how she uses language to navigate through both academic and non-academic spaces. At EMU\, she researched the discussion around asexual inclusion in queer spaces online. Though she is not currently looking at asexuality specifically\, she looks at queerness and language in her current research. Most recently\, she examined the way language was used to construct Titus Andromedon's identity as a Black gay man in Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. In her future research\, she plans to look at how queer people of color use language to construct their own identities in various spaces. \n\nAll dinners are hosted 5:30 to 7pm at 1443 Washtenaw. Reserve your spot at this dinner or any of the upcoming dinners at: http://bit.ly/QTIPOCfall2019\n\nSpectrum Center Accessibility Statement\nIf you have an accessibility need you feel may not be automatically met at this event\, fill out our Event Accommodation Form\, found at http://bit.ly/SCaccess. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary for some accommodations to be fully implemented\, but we will always attempt to dismantle barriers as they are brought up to us.

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: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: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:Conference / Symposium:“Mobilizing ‘Blackness’: From the Haitian Revolution to Now”
DESCRIPTION:From Negritude\, to the Anti-Apartheid movement\, to Mizrahi Jewish claims to being Black Panthers\, to Asian/African/Caribbean coalitions in the United Kingdom\, to articulations by German and French youth today\, this symposium will address the ways in which “Blackness” has been mobilized to make claims on state and other resources.  It will engage the anti-normative forms of living Blackness has enabled. Given these histories and contemporary articulations\, it asks: Who can claim Blackness? Under what conditions and with what effect can one make this claim? To what extent does claiming Blackness lead to social change? What are the conditions for coalition around claiming Blackness? Does racism persist\, even amongst people of color\, in spite of this coalitional claim?\n\nThe symposium is free and open to the public and will include a special screening of the documentary Whose Streets? (2018) and the short What Kind of Power Y’All Got (2016) with a Q&A with the filmmakers to follow in Lecture Hall II of the Modern Language Building on Friday\, September 27 at 7 PM.\n\nIf you have any questions\, please contact Damani Partridge (djpartri@umich.edu)\n\nView the schedule online: myumi.ch/zxKNx

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Applied Microeconomics/IO Seminar: Quantifying sources of persistent prescription behavior: Evidence from Belgium
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nHealth care policymakers often find it challenging to change physician behavior\, as it is highly persistent. Drivers of this persistence are not well understood\, but physicians and patients both play a role. I study the importance of both in the prescribing behavior of primary care physicians (PCPs) in Belgium. I exploit a mandate introduced in 2006 that required PCPs to prescribe a minimum percentage of cheap or generic drugs\, and analyze the change in PCP prescription habits using administrative data linking 26 million dispensed prescription drugs to 150\,000 patients and 45\,000 physicians. I find that PCPs exhibit a bias towards prescribing a brand name drug when an equally effective generic is available\, and adjust this behavior in response to the mandate without compromising the quality of drugs they prescribe. I show that the type of patient to whom a drug is prescribed matters as well. Compared to patients prescribed medication for the first time\, PCPs switch long-time users from branded to generic versions of the same drug at much lower rates\, especially when these patients are older or use multiple prescription drugs. This suggests that there is a cost to switching between drugs and that it varies by patient characteristics. Using an instrumental variables framework\, I estimate that switching a patient from a brand name to generic version of the same drug indeed comes at a cost\, measured with decreased medication adherence. I develop a structural model of prescription behavior to quantify the relative importance of physician bias and patient considerations in PCP prescribing behavior\, and find they are about equally important. Using this model\, I show that the introduction of a Mandatory Generic Substitution policy may decrease overall welfare as a result of patient considerations. This suggests that policy efforts aimed at changing physician behavior should also consider potentially negative health impacts on patients.

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:Michael Woodroofe Lecture Series: Cun-Hui Zhang\, Distinguished Professor\, Department of Statistics and Biostatistics\, Rutgers University
DESCRIPTION:We consider several problems in areas where Michael Woodroofe has made seminal contributions to. In higher criticism\, we develop a one-sided sequential probability ratio test based on the ordered p-values to achieve optimal detection of rare and weak signals. This makes an interesting connection to the test of power one and nonlinear renewal theorem. In multiple isotonic regression\, a block estimator is developed to attain minimax rate for a wide range of signal-to-noise ratio\, to achieve adaptation to the parametric root-n rate up to a logarithmic factor in the case where the unknown mean is piecewise constant\, and to achieve adaptation in variable selection. In uncertainty quantification\, we develop second order Stein formulas for statistical inference in nonparametric and high-dimensional problems. Applications of the second order Stein method include exact formulas and upper bounds for the variance of risk estimators and risk bounds for regularized or shape constrained estimators and related degrees of freedom adjustments and confidence regions.\n\n*Hors d'oeuvres immediately following in 337 West Hall (Don Meyer Commons)

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.

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:Lecture / Discussion:AE285 Undergrad Seminar: Building an Aircraft Portfolio: Were They All Worth It?
DESCRIPTION:Mike Stengel\nSenior Associate\, AeroDynamic Advisory\n\nThe commercial aerospace industry today is part of the backbone of the global economy due to the number of programs in production and under development\, as well as record high production rates. However\, aircraft programs are expensive and risky\, sometimes putting the entire company on the line. While the financial consequences can be high for a program that does not sell well\, there are also “home runs” that have provided streams of profits for OEMs. In this seminar\, Mike Stengel of AeroDynamic Advisory will examine some of the key aircraft platforms that have defined the Airbus & Boeing portfolios\, including the challenges faced during the development\, successes & failures in marketing the aircraft to customers\, and the financial and strategic outcomes for the companies.\n\nMike Stengel is a Senior Associate at AeroDynamic Advisory\, where he is responsible for project management and research of aerospace markets. His particular area of focus is in the air transport manufacturing and Maintenance\, Repair\, and Overhaul (MRO) sectors. Mike's projects have spanned the aerospace industry\, and include topics such as aftermarket strategy\, transaction/M&A advisory\, customer satisfaction\, strategic technology assessments\, and economic development for airlines\, OEMs\, industry associations\, and investors.\n\nPreviously\, Mike was an Associate at ICF International's Aerospace and MRO consulting practice. Prior to that\, he interned at United Airlines in their San Francisco\, CA engine and APU maintenance facility\, as well as at AeroStrategy in 2011.\n\nMike holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Aerospace Engineering (cum laude) from the University of Michigan\, where he has also been an invited guest speaker\, and is an FAA-licensed commercial pilot with an instrument rating.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Border Control: Traversing Horizons in Media Practice
DESCRIPTION:In September 2019\, the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design will host the New Media Caucus 2019 Symposium and Exhibition\, Border Control.  Symposium and exhibition events will take place in Ann Arbor at the Stamps School of Art and Design (2000 Bonisteel Blvd.) and Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.).\n\nExhibition Dates: September 20 - November 10\, 2019\nSymposium Dates: September 19 - 22\, 2019\nGuest Curator: Allison Collins\, Media Arts Curator\, Western Front\n\nCurated by Allison Collins in collaboration with Carrie Edinger and Srimoyee Mitra.\nIn partnership with the New Media Caucus \n\nHuman migration is a defining issue of the 21st century\, often calling into question the relevance\, role\, and responsibilities of national borders across the globe. As individuals seek refuge from geopolitical and environmental forces\, we become an increasingly globalized community. Demarcations of all types are simultaneously porous and closed\, defensive and receptive\, and seen in almost every facet of our existence. Border Control responds to these conditions with an open-ended question\, asking: “How has humanity made sense of the world in relation to borders and boundaries\, both physically and psychologically?” While positioned within (or outside of) defined spaces and identities\, human refusal of such literal definitions is paramount. Even while lines drawn have important consequences for lived reality\, the winds\, currents\, and natural energies of the Earth deny enclosures and definitions that politics and maps might suggest.\n\nDrawn from practices that are touched or driven by new media\, Border Control assembles works by artists who consider geographical contexts\, patterns of migration\, displacement\, and statelessness. Collectively\, they offer projects with subterfuge\, refusal\, and reconsideration of imposed state-sanctioned boundaries.\n\n \n\n

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:Presentation:MFG Research Seminar: Cloud-Driven Manufacturing: Opportunities and Challenges
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nFor many years now\, my students and I have developed several solutions to enable cost-effective deployments in the cloud of low-latency highly-available services. Based on this work\, in this talk\, my goals are two-fold.\n \nFirst\, I will give an overview of how some of my group's work\, as well as other related research from computer science researchers\, can be leveraged to enable cloud-driven control of manufacturing devices\, i.e.\, how CS research can be used for improved manufacturing.\n \nSecond\, in the context of smart manufacturing\, I will describe the challenges in applying the approaches traditionally used by computer science researchers. In particular\, I will argue that many of the principles that underlie use of the cloud will need to be rethought\, and the domain of smart manufacturing presents an exciting new frontier for distributed systems research. I will then show some preliminary work done in collaboration with Prof. Okwudire on the application of cloud computing to the control of manufacturing machines. \n\nBio\nHarsha V. Madhyastha is an Associate Professor in Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Walter Oltmann
DESCRIPTION:Infant Skull II\, a woven “tapestry” made out of very fine aluminum wire\, only reveals its shape when seen from afar. Drawing inspiration from his country’s basketry traditions\, the South African artist Walter Oltmann (b. 1960) alternates densely layered sections with open spaces\, allowing the underlying surface of the work to show through. The skull that emerges is\, in a South African context\, evocative of the Cradle of Humankind—a series of caves outside Johannesburg\, where some of the oldest hominin fossils in the world have been found.\n \nThe work complements UMMA’s renowned and growing collection of historical and contemporary African art and reminds us of the central role of Africa in the history of humankind. The purchase was made possible thanks to the generosity of UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee.\n\nThis acquisition was made possible by the generosity of the UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee\, 2016.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:\"We Gon' Be Alright\, But That Ain’t Alright: Abolitionist Teaching\"
DESCRIPTION:About the Talk\n\nDr. Love’s talk will discuss the struggles and the possibilities of committing ourselves to an abolitionist goal of educational freedom\, as opposed to reform\, and moving beyond what she calls the educational survival complex. Abolitionist Teaching is built on the creativity\, imagination\, boldness\, ingenuity\, and rebellious spirit and methods of abolitionists to demand and fight for an educational system where all students are thriving\, not simply surviving.\n\nAbout Dr. Bettina L. Love\n\nDr. Bettina L. Love is an award-winning author and Associate Professor of Educational Theory & Practice at the University of Georgia. She is the author of the book *We Want To Do More Than Survive: Abolitionist Teaching and the Pursuit of Educational Freedom* (Beacon Press). She passionately\, and with resolute and bold inquiry\, argues that the U.S. educational system is maintained by and profits from the suffering of children of color. Instead of trying to repair a flawed system\, educational reformers offer survival tactics in the forms of test-taking skills\, acronyms\, grit labs\, and character education\, which Love calls the educational survival complex.\n\nDr. Love is one of the field’s most esteemed educational researchers in the area of Hip Hop education. Her research focuses on the ways in which urban youth negotiate Hip Hop music and culture to form social\, cultural\, and political identities to create new and sustaining ways of thinking about urban education and intersectional social justice. Her work is also concerned with how teachers and schools working with parents and communities can build communal\, civically engaged schools rooted in intersectional social justice for the goal of equitable classrooms.\n\nFor her work in the field\, in 2016\, Dr. Love was named the Nasir Jones Hiphop Fellow at the Hutchins Center for African and African American Research at Harvard University. She is also the creator of the Hip Hop civics curriculum GET FREE. In April of 2017\, Dr. Love participated in a one-on-one public lecture with bell hooks focused on the liberatory education practices of Black and Brown children. In 2018\, Georgia’s House of Representatives presented Dr. Love with a resolution for her impact on the field of education.\n\nDr. Love is a sought-after public speaker on a range of topics\, including antiblackness in schools\, Hip Hop education\, Black girlhood\, queer youth\, Hip Hop feminism\, art-based education to foster youth civic engagement and issues of diversity and inclusion. In 2014\, she was invited to the White House Research Conference on Girls to discuss her work focused on the lives of Black girls. In addition\, she is the inaugural recipient of the Michael F. Adams award (2014) from the University of Georgia. She has also provided commentary for various news outlets including NPR\, The Guardian\, and the Atlanta Journal Constitution. She is the author of the book Hip Hop’s Li’l Sistas Speak: Negotiating Hip Hop Identities and Politics in the New South. Her work has appeared in numerous books and journals\, including the English Journal\, Urban Education\, The Urban Review\, and Journal of LGBT Youth. In 2017\, Dr. Love edited a special issue of the Journal of Lesbian Studies focused on the identities\, gender performances\, and pedagogical practices of Black and Brown lesbian educators.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AE285 Undergrad Seminar: Building an Aircraft Portfolio: Were They All Worth It?
DESCRIPTION:Mike Stengel\nSenior Associate\, AeroDynamic Advisory\n\nThe commercial aerospace industry today is part of the backbone of the global economy due to the number of programs in production and under development\, as well as record high production rates. However\, aircraft programs are expensive and risky\, sometimes putting the entire company on the line. While the financial consequences can be high for a program that does not sell well\, there are also “home runs” that have provided streams of profits for OEMs. In this seminar\, Mike Stengel of AeroDynamic Advisory will examine some of the key aircraft platforms that have defined the Airbus & Boeing portfolios\, including the challenges faced during the development\, successes & failures in marketing the aircraft to customers\, and the financial and strategic outcomes for the companies.\n\nMike Stengel is a Senior Associate at AeroDynamic Advisory\, where he is responsible for project management and research of aerospace markets. His particular area of focus is in the air transport manufacturing and Maintenance\, Repair\, and Overhaul (MRO) sectors. Mike's projects have spanned the aerospace industry\, and include topics such as aftermarket strategy\, transaction/M&A advisory\, customer satisfaction\, strategic technology assessments\, and economic development for airlines\, OEMs\, industry associations\, and investors.\n\nPreviously\, Mike was an Associate at ICF International's Aerospace and MRO consulting practice. Prior to that\, he interned at United Airlines in their San Francisco\, CA engine and APU maintenance facility\, as well as at AeroStrategy in 2011.\n\nMike holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Aerospace Engineering (cum laude) from the University of Michigan\, where he has also been an invited guest speaker\, and is an FAA-licensed commercial pilot with an instrument rating.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Examining Harassment Experiences Among National Park Service Employees
DESCRIPTION:In September of 2014\, the Department of the Interior (DOI) Secretary Sally Jewell received a letter of complaint from 13 former and current National Park Service (NPS) employees who described incidents of discrimination\, retaliation and hostile work environments they experienced or witnessed over their 15 years of collective employment at NPS (US Department of the Interior\, 2016a). These complaints were validated by the DOI Inspector General and subsequently triggered investigations and congressional hearings into the nature and extent of sexual harassment within the NPS work environment. In response to these events\, the leadership of the NPS renewed its commitment to making substantial and long-term cultural changes at the agency to prevent sexual harassment and to ensure every employee has a safe and respectful work environment (Reynolds\, 2016). As part of these efforts\, the leadership of the NPS commissioned a study of the work environment at the NPS. The study was designed to assess employees’ attitudes\, perceptions\, and behaviors on a wide range of topics related to the character\, context\, correlates and consequences of harassment and/or assault behaviors experienced by employees within the NPS work environment. This presentation will present findings related to employees’ experiences with harassing and/or assault behaviors and situational factors surrounding these experiences. The presentation will also report findings regarding demographic\, occupational\, and organizational factors linked with harassing and/or assault behaviors experienced at work\; and job-related consequences of harassing and/or assault behaviors experienced at work. The presentation will discuss how the results from the study served to inform\, influence and impact strategic and long-term efforts to change the NPS culture\, to prevent sexual harassment and ensure that every employee has a safe and respectful work environment.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:The Science of Yogic Breathing - workshop for student wellness
DESCRIPTION:Breathing regulation is one of the key practices within the Yoga discipline. Often called Pranayama or Yogic breathing this practice is gaining increasing importance in the Western world. The availability of ancient literature and modern scientific evidence is sparse on this subtopic of Yoga. Dr. Sundar Balasubramanian is a pioneer in the area of salivary biomarkers combining Pranayama practice. He has been researching techniques related to Pranayama from the ancient and unique Siddha tradition. He has published scientific research papers and book on Thirumanthiram\, written by Saint Thirumoolar. This workshop consisting of both theoretical and practical components is unique in combining ancient wisdom with modern science based on the teacher’s first-hand experience and research. The attendees will be able to\,\n\n1.    Get acquainted with the ancient literary excerpts on Yogic breathing\n2.    Get to practice key breathing exercises from an ancient tradition\n3.    Understand the physiological\, emotional and biological mechanisms of Pranayama based on the research work done by the presenter\n4.    Learn the clinical and social applications of Pranayama\n\nThis program is designed for students of all levels. Participants can learn easy exercises to relieve day-to-day stress\, and to improve overall wellness. No need for Yoga mats or Yoga attire. Participants can practice seated on chairs with campus/office attire. No large meal within 2 hours prior to the session. Drink adequate fluid. \n\nSession timings: Lecture - First 30 minutes\; Q/A-10 minutes\; Practice-50 minutes (questions allowed if they are about the exercises being practiced).

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:How Does a Single Protein Molecule Cause an Array of Diseases? The Story of the Magic Protein NLRP3
DESCRIPTION:In some cases\, the malfunction of a signal molecule in our body causes diseases. Here the protein NLRP3 will be taken as an example. The course will first provide the basic background of molecular cell biology\, such as the concepts of cell and its building blocks\; then introduce NLRP3\, its function in the normal condition and its relations with diseases\, such as auto-inflammatory disorders\, type 2 diabetes\, gout\, Alzheimer disease\, etc. \nThe goal of this course is to bring science to the community and highlight the importance of basic biological research in medicine. Jie Xu\, instructor\, has a Ph.D. in neuroscience and has worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Michigan Medical School since 2018. This Study Group is for those 50 and over and meets Fridays\, 3:15–4:45 pm on September 27 – October 4.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: The Mechanics of Slow Earthquakes and Lab Earthquake Prediction
DESCRIPTION:Earthquake science is in the midst of a revolution. Our understanding of tectonic faulting has been shaken to the core by discoveries of seismic tremor\, low frequency earthquakes\, slow slip events\, and other modes of fault slip. These phenomena represent modes of failure that were thought to be non-existent and theoretically impossible not long ago. Despite the growing number of observations of slow earthquakes and the fact that they can trigger catastrophic large earthquakes their origin remains unresolved.  Basic questions remain regarding how slow ruptures can propagate quasi-dynamically\, at speeds far below the Rayleigh wave speed\, and how tectonic faults can host both slow slip and dynamic earthquake rupture. Our lab work now includes the ability to reproduce the full spectrum of failure modes from stable creep to elastodynamic rupture.  Remarkably\, this range of events can be predicted using machine learning (ML) techniques to analyze acoustic emissions emanating from the fault. The labquakes are preceded by a cascade of micro-failure events that radiate elastic energy in a manner that foretells catastrophic failure.  The ML methods predict the time of failure\, the slip duration\, and for some events the magnitude of slip.  These predictions demonstrate a mapping between fault strength and statistical attributes of the fault zone elastic radiation that it is valid throughout the duration of the lab seismic cycle. They also correctly describe both dynamic rupture and slow slip events. Here\, I summarize laboratory results on the mechanics of slow earthquakes and our work on lab earthquake prediction.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:NERS Colloquium:  Bret Kugelmass\, Energy Impact Center
DESCRIPTION:TITLE: Reversing Climate Change\n\nABSTRACT: Solving climate change requires far more than the total elimination of annual greenhouse gas emissions. The complete decarbonization of electricity\, agriculture\, transportation\, building heat\, and industrial sectors may reduce the rate at which we accumulate heat\, but will have no impact on the previous emissions that already\, and will continue to\, cause the majority of radiative forcing. Drawing inspiration from mathematics and physics\, Bret Kugelmass derives a pathway towards global scale removal of greenhouse gas on a timeline fast enough to spare the most vulnerable communities. He presents a counterfactual to calls for policy “solutions” of sacrifice\, efficiency\, and taxes which often ignore energy demands and political realities of the developing world. He will argue that in deploying nuclear energy at scale\, we can power the transition to a global carbon negative economy in a way that aligns short-term individual economic motivations with long-term environmental preservation.\n\nBIO:Bret Kugelmass is a former technology entrepreneur who has dedicated his focus to climate and energy challenges. One of the early pioneers in commercializing unmanned aerospace technology he founded and remained CEO of Airphrame Inc. for five years up until its acquisition. Prior to this\, he received his masters in robotics from Stanford University and his earlier work includes designing lunar rover control systems for NASA and a concept electric car for Panasonic. In 2017\, he launched a Washington\, DC based research institute\, the Energy Impact Center\, focused on exploring the challenges and opportunities of nuclear power's role in deep decarbonization. Their work includes techno-economic analysis of energy technologies\, hosting clean-tech prize competitions\, and publishing audio interviews with hundreds of experts under the “Titans of Nuclear” brand.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Patricia Akhimie Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Patricia Akhimie (Rutgers University) will deliver a public lecture.\n\nAbstract: In The Merchant of Venice\, the multiple meanings of “quality” triangulate a new mode of social differentiation\, locating racialism at the nexus of ideas about shared ability\, shared nature\, and shared belief or rank. The concept of relative “quality” is used to distinguish between groups on the basis of attributes that are inherent or inherited\, and those that are learned\, providing a reasoning for existing inequalities of access and opportunity. The Merchant of Venice features competing vocabularies of valuation as measured by worldly wealth\, moral worth\, and good conduct. The contradictions inherent in the overlapping models for measuring relative value in the play reveal an underlying ideology of racial differentiation\, a belief in the existence of innate differences between groups.

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: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:Conference / Symposium:“Mobilizing ‘Blackness’: From the Haitian Revolution to Now”
DESCRIPTION:From Negritude\, to the Anti-Apartheid movement\, to Mizrahi Jewish claims to being Black Panthers\, to Asian/African/Caribbean coalitions in the United Kingdom\, to articulations by German and French youth today\, this symposium will address the ways in which “Blackness” has been mobilized to make claims on state and other resources.  It will engage the anti-normative forms of living Blackness has enabled. Given these histories and contemporary articulations\, it asks: Who can claim Blackness? Under what conditions and with what effect can one make this claim? To what extent does claiming Blackness lead to social change? What are the conditions for coalition around claiming Blackness? Does racism persist\, even amongst people of color\, in spite of this coalitional claim?\n\nThe symposium is free and open to the public and will include a special screening of the documentary Whose Streets? (2018) and the short What Kind of Power Y’All Got (2016) with a Q&A with the filmmakers to follow in Lecture Hall II of the Modern Language Building on Friday\, September 27 at 7 PM.\n\nIf you have any questions\, please contact Damani Partridge (djpartri@umich.edu)\n\nView the schedule online: myumi.ch/zxKNx

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

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

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Border Control: Traversing Horizons in Media Practice
DESCRIPTION:In September 2019\, the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design will host the New Media Caucus 2019 Symposium and Exhibition\, Border Control.  Symposium and exhibition events will take place in Ann Arbor at the Stamps School of Art and Design (2000 Bonisteel Blvd.) and Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.).\n\nExhibition Dates: September 20 - November 10\, 2019\nSymposium Dates: September 19 - 22\, 2019\nGuest Curator: Allison Collins\, Media Arts Curator\, Western Front\n\nCurated by Allison Collins in collaboration with Carrie Edinger and Srimoyee Mitra.\nIn partnership with the New Media Caucus \n\nHuman migration is a defining issue of the 21st century\, often calling into question the relevance\, role\, and responsibilities of national borders across the globe. As individuals seek refuge from geopolitical and environmental forces\, we become an increasingly globalized community. Demarcations of all types are simultaneously porous and closed\, defensive and receptive\, and seen in almost every facet of our existence. Border Control responds to these conditions with an open-ended question\, asking: “How has humanity made sense of the world in relation to borders and boundaries\, both physically and psychologically?” While positioned within (or outside of) defined spaces and identities\, human refusal of such literal definitions is paramount. Even while lines drawn have important consequences for lived reality\, the winds\, currents\, and natural energies of the Earth deny enclosures and definitions that politics and maps might suggest.\n\nDrawn from practices that are touched or driven by new media\, Border Control assembles works by artists who consider geographical contexts\, patterns of migration\, displacement\, and statelessness. Collectively\, they offer projects with subterfuge\, refusal\, and reconsideration of imposed state-sanctioned boundaries.\n\n \n\n

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: Walter Oltmann
DESCRIPTION:Infant Skull II\, a woven “tapestry” made out of very fine aluminum wire\, only reveals its shape when seen from afar. Drawing inspiration from his country’s basketry traditions\, the South African artist Walter Oltmann (b. 1960) alternates densely layered sections with open spaces\, allowing the underlying surface of the work to show through. The skull that emerges is\, in a South African context\, evocative of the Cradle of Humankind—a series of caves outside Johannesburg\, where some of the oldest hominin fossils in the world have been found.\n \nThe work complements UMMA’s renowned and growing collection of historical and contemporary African art and reminds us of the central role of Africa in the history of humankind. The purchase was made possible thanks to the generosity of UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee.\n\nThis acquisition was made possible by the generosity of the UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee\, 2016.

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/
