As the title makes clear\, this is the story of one woman\, Kim Ji-young\, whose survival in an institutionally sexist world could surely only be hindered\, not helped\, by her spouse\; emotionally stunted male portraits are as sadly common on screen as they are pathetically prevalent in real life. In short\, I was ready for my gender to be held up to uncomfortable scrutiny – for masculinity to take another much deserved\, but all too familiar\, beating.\n\nInstead I was offered something I never expected from a mainstream drama blockbuster\, a character I could relate to in an almost painful way. As a cohabiting male in my mid-thirties squirming to define a man’s role in 2019\, I wasn’t just gifted a window into my partner’s struggles\, but a portrait of the everyday societal pressures undermining my own earnest efforts to be the model\, modern man.” –Rob Garratt\, SCMP STYLE\n\nKorean Cinema NOW 2021 will be presented through a virtual format.

Lonely\, reserved\, and stuck in a dysfunctional household among her frequently quarrelling parents (Seung-Yeon Lee and In-gi Jeong)\, her troublemaking sister Su-hee (Su-yeon Park)\, and bully of a brother Dae-hoon (Sang-yeon Sohn)\, eighth-grader Eun-hee seems to move through life involuntarily\, like a bird with a pair of broken wings.

Prior research suggests that impairments in response inhibition\, a subcomponent of executive control\, contribute to clinical symptoms and adverse outcomes. Alterations in event-related potentials (ERPs) elicited during response inhibition tasks (e.g. go/no-go) hold promise for informing shared and disorder-specific neural and cognitive mechanisms of these disorders. The current study examines the N200 and P300 ERPs during an emotional face go/no-go task in healthy individuals and individuals diagnosed with bipolar I disorder\, schizoaffective disorder\, or schizophrenia. Findings can inform similarities and differences across these disorders as well as targeted intervention to improve inhibitory control. Background\, methodology\, preliminary results\, next directions\, and implications will be discussed.

Moderated by Prof. Emily P. Lawsin (University of Michigan) \n\nABOUT THE BOOK: \nAsian American women scholars experience shockingly low rates of tenure and promotion because of the particular ways they are marginalized by the intersectionalities of race and gender in academia. Although Asian American studies critics have long since debunked the model minority myth that constructs Asian Americans as the ideal academic subject\, university administrators still treat Asian American women in academia as though they will simply show up and shut up. Consequently\, because silent complicity is expected\, power-holders will punish and oppress Asian American women severely when they question or critique the system. However\, change is in the air. Fight the Tower is a continuation of the Fight the Tower movement\, which supports women standing up for their rights to claim their earned place in academia and to work for positive change for all within academic institutions. The essays provide powerful portraits\, reflections\, and analyses of a population often rendered invisible by the lies that sustain intersectional injustices in order to operate an oppressive system. https://www.rutgersuniversitypress.org/fight-the-tower/9781978806368\n \nBios: \nDr. Kieu Linh Caroline Valverde is an associate professor of Asian American Studies and the founding director of the New Viet Nam Studies Initiative at the University of California\, Davis. She is the author of Transnationalizing Viet Nam: Community\, Culture\, and Politics in the Diaspora\, co-founder of the social justice movement\, Fight the Tower\, and co-editor of Fight the Tower: Asian American Women Scholars’ Resistance and Renewal in the Academy. \n\nDr. Wei Ming Dariotis is a professor of Asian American Studies at San Francisco State University. She is co-editor of War Baby/Love Child: Mixed Race Asian American Art and Fight the Tower: Asian American Women Scholars’ Resistance and Renewal in the Academy\, and co-author of the definition of critical mixed race studies.

Together\, they will reflect on how we can draw on Southern epistemologies to broaden the horizon of Jewish and Muslim studies. In particular\, Professor Slabodsky\, the author of Decolonial Judaism\, connects Jewish history and thought with the histories and presents of anti-colonial and decolonial struggles\, thus exploring what a decolonial Judaism would look like in the twenty-first century. Similarly\, Professor Umar\, who is writing a book on the histories and global politics of \"racing\" and gendering Islam\, seeks to complicate and decolonize our ideas of the \"Muslim World\,\" specifically from a Global South/Indian Muslim perspective\, foregrounding caste\, racialization\, and gender.\n\nSantiago Slabodsky is the Robert and Florence Kaufman Endowed Chair in Jewish Studies and Associate Professor of Religion at Hofstra University. He writes about intercultural encounters between Jewish and Global South social theories and political movements. His book Decolonial Judaism: Triumphal Failures of Barbaric Thinking received the 2017 Frantz Fanon Outstanding Book Award from the Caribbean Philosophical Association. His research interests include Jewish thought and culture\, colonialism and decoloniality\, sociology of knowledge\, Latin American\, North African\, and Middle Eastern histories\, religion and politics\, inter-religious conversations\, Jewish-Muslim dialogue\, critical theories of religion and society\, and race and globalization.\n\nSanober Umar is Assistant Professor in the Department of Politics at York University. Her current work explores the relationship (and critical distinctions) between caste and racial hierarchies\, and how these entanglements-along with gender and class dynamics-inform the figure of the Muslim in Indian and (neoliberal) world politics. For her upcoming project\, Dr. Umar is investigating the histories and global politics of \"racing\" and gendering Islam as religion including mainstream and academic discursive productions of a universalized and flexible \"Muslim World\".\n\nAdvance Registration Required: https://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJYsdumgqTwsGdAYqZxPsITs8rYl-kwkmQ0k UID:82649-21153690@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82649 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Jewish Studies LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210127T075041 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210412T103000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210412T120000 SUMMARY:Meeting:CoderSpaces (Mondays) DESCRIPTION:Are you grappling with a piece of code\, trying to compute on a cluster\, or just getting started with a new method such as machine learning?

Major barriers that contribute to these disparities include prejudice and stereotyping. In this talk\, I will focus on factors that give rise to these disparities and potential mechanisms for intervention\, drawing from research in affective science\, social psychology\, and neuroscience. Using EEG\, I investigate the time course of intergroup impression formation\, providing evidence that individuals process social group membership quickly even when other socially relevant information is available. Next\, I discuss intergroup decision-making\, demonstrating that individuals punish negative behavior of minority members even when doing so comes at a personal cost. Given that social group membership influences impression formation and our decisions about others\, it becomes paramount to address potential ways to mitigate intergroup disparities. To this end\, I will review my research exploring promising intervention techniques aimed at diminishing negative intergroup evaluations.

With intense proton beams colliding at very high energies and high rates\, the LHC is effectively a “top quark factory” that allows for the precise measurement of properties of the top quark. With the large LHC data\, now it is also possible to measure rare processes involving top-quarks. Processes like top anti-top pair production along with other particles\, for example Higgs boson or the electroweak force carriers W/Z has been observed at the LHC. Precise measurement of these processes have implications on the Standard Model of particle physics and even in cosmology. Recent results from the measurement of these rare top quark processes will be discussed in this talk. \n UID:83468-21385560@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/83468 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210107T120650 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210412T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210412T170000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:LSA/Ross Dual Degree Info Sessions DESCRIPTION:If you are interested in applying for the Multiple Dependent Degree Program (MDDP) between LSA and the Ross School of Business you must attend an MDDP information session.\n\n All sessions will be held virtually via Zoom at 4 pm on the following days:\n\nJanuary 11\,12\nFebruary 8\,9\nMarch 8\,9\nApril 12\,23\n\nThe Zoom URL is https://umich.zoom.us/j/93289886804 \n\nPresenter-Jeff Harrold\, Coordinator for Academic Standards and Special Populations\, LSA Student Academic Affairs\, jharrold@umich.edu UID:80478-20728297@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/80478 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Advising,Business LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210224T112534 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210412T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210412T170000 SUMMARY:Presentation:MIDAS Seminar Series Presents: Vicki Bogan\, Economics and Management\, Cornell University DESCRIPTION:We provide empirical evidence that visceral factors affect financial risk taking by showing that exposure to mass shootings alters mutual fund managers’ risk taking decisions. Funds that are exposed to mass shootings subsequently decrease risk relative to their peers. The effect that we document is temporary\, lasting approximately one quarter before reverting to normal levels and is strongest among managers with demographics shown to express greater fear from mass shootings. Together with the literature on laboratory studies that show that market downturns induce fear\, our findings suggest that fear could exacerbate variation in risk taking\, generating the highly volatile countercyclical risk premiums shown to exist in markets.\n\nBio:\n\nVicki Bogan’s research interests are in the areas of financial economics\, behavioral finance\, and applied microeconomics centering on issues involving investment decision making behavior and financial markets. She explores questions relating to investment decision making (corporate and individual) and household portfolio allocation with the goal of shedding light on how to better model observed behavior.\n\nBogan has published numerous journal articles and book chapters including a book chapter on “Household Investment Decisions\,” in Investor Behavior: The Psychology of Financial Planning and Investing. Bogan’s research has received considerable media attention including radio interviews and coverage in Forbes.com\, the Wall Street Journal website\, NPR’s Marketplace Tech\, PsychologyToday.com\, and the Harvard Business Review Blog. She also has been featured on the PBS News Hour – Paul Solman’s Making Sense\, the Lou Hutt Show on Sirius XM radio\, and Knowledge@Wharton on Sirius XM radio.\n\nBogan currently serves as Co-Editor for Financial Planning Review. She is the founder and director for the Institute for Behavioral and Household Finance. She also worked as a consultant for Hartford Funds Management Group\, Inc.\n\nProf. Bogan teaches finance courses for master’s and undergraduate students in the Dyson School of Cornell University’s SC Johnson College of Business. She has received two outstanding educator awards and the SUNY Chancellor’s Award for Excellence in Teaching.\n\nBogan holds a Sc.B. degree in Applied Mathematics and Economics from Brown University\, an M.B.A. in Finance and Strategic Management from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania\, an M.A. in Economics from Brown University\, and a Ph.D. in Economics from Brown University. She also has held a visiting fellow appointment at Princeton University.

Against the onslaught of US products in the world’s media marketplace\, South Korean cinema has successfully defended itself. In 2001\, South Korea became the first film industry in recent history to reclaim its domestic market from Hollywood. In 2006\, local films had a 67 percent market share—the highest such figure in the world except for the US and India—and they have continued to maintain a market share of around 50 percent in the 2010s (52 percent in 2019). Admissions per capita in 2019 also reached 4.37\, up from 1.1 in 1998 and 2.92 in 2010\, the highest around the globe\, when it was 3.5 in the U.S. The number of screens in Korea has soared\, from 511 in 1997 to 3\,079 in 2019. Based on the increasing numbers of moviegoers and domestic films produced\, South Korea has become one of the world’s major film markets (ranked 5th in 2020). Adding to this success\, the high-quality South Korean local product has flowed outward to global film markets to connect with international audiences in commercial cinemas\, in art theaters\, and at major international film festivals. Park Chan-wook’s Oldboy (2003) received the Grand Prix at the Cannes International Film Festival. Hong Sang-soo had great success in Cannes\, Berlin\, and Locarno with Hahaha (2010)\, Right Now\, Wrong Then (2015)\, and On the Beach at Night Alone (2017). Other breakthrough auteurs\, art-house and genre-bending specialists alike\, followed: Lee Chang-dong\, Im Sang-soo\, Kim Jee-woon\, Ryoo Seung-wan and Kim Ki-duk. Bong Joon-ho’s Parasite marked the culmination of South Korean cinema’s global success. Parasite became the first foreign-language film to win Best Picture at the Oscars (2020)\, and swept other major awards including Best Director\, Screenplay\, and International Feature.\n\nIn English-language academic circles\, likewise\, interest in South Korean cinema as a serious scholarly subject has been growing exponentially. The evolution of South Korean cinema scholarship has been noteworthy. Such scholars as Isolde Standish\, David James\, Rob Wilson\, Kyung Hyun Kim\, Soyoung Kim\, Paul Willemen\, and Kathleen McHugh initially ignited the field of South Korean cinema studies and\, almost simultaneously\, two monographs followed in the UK and US: Hyangjin Lee’s Contemporary Korean Cinema: Culture\, Identity and Politics (2000) and Kyung Hyun Kim’s The Remasculinization of Korean Cinema (2004). Since then\, the field has witnessed a blossoming of South Korean cinema studies in the form of monographs\, edited volumes\, and special issues. Although the field has recently greeted many significant scholarly achievements that have extensively discussed South Korea’s cinematic legacies\, it is still difficult to find scholarly articles on pre-1990s South Korean films – and almost none are available on films from the 1970s and 80s. There is also a shortage of articles on individual films and directors\, and no systematically structured book-length study on the South Korean film industry has been published as of the time this conference is being prepared.\n\nThe South Korean Film Industry conference will bring together scholars from major sites of Korean film and media Studies research in the Anglophone world (including Canada\, U.S.\, U.K.\, and Australia) with scholars from Korea and Singapore for an interdisciplinary dialogue on the diversity and complexity of the South Korean film industry. This conference aims to showcase innovative scholarly work examining wide-ranging coverage of subjects such as the production\, exhibition and distribution of South Korean cinema\, state policy and censorship\, coproduction\, film festivals and cinephilia\, independent cinema\, and Hallyu and the global reception of South Korean cinema. \n\nFull conference details and schedule available at:\nhttps://myumi.ch/1p0b3\n\nMonday\, April 12\n\n7:00-7:10pm Welcome Remarks\n7:10-8:10pm Panel 1: History\, Industry\, and Policy\n\nChair: Sangjoon LEE (Nanyang Technological University)\n\nSouth Korea’s Film Policy (1993-2020)\nCHO Junhyoung (Korean Film Archive)\n\nEvolution of the Korean Film Industry in the Hallyu Era\nDal Yong Jin (Simon Fraser University)\n\n8:20 – 9:30pm Keynote Lecture\n\nKIM Hong-Joon (Korea National University of Arts)\n\nModerator: Sangjoon LEE (Nanyang Technological University)\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at ncks.info@umich.edu.

Lonely\, reserved\, and stuck in a dysfunctional household among her frequently quarrelling parents (Seung-Yeon Lee and In-gi Jeong)\, her troublemaking sister Su-hee (Su-yeon Park)\, and bully of a brother Dae-hoon (Sang-yeon Sohn)\, eighth-grader Eun-hee seems to move through life involuntarily\, like a bird with a pair of broken wings. And yet\, she still copes with routine neglect behind a youthful shield of resilience — Kim slowly lays bare Eun-hee’s toughened spirit from a minimalist and acutely feminine perspective.” –Tomris Laffly\, Variety\n\nKorean Cinema NOW 2021 will be presented through a virtual format.

At first glance\, the constructed space is a shimmering homage to the bedroom disco—a sanctuary for uninhibited dance and self-expression. It has also become the setting from which many personal videos are made and shared widely on social media\, where platforms such as Instagram and TikTok have blurred the boundary between public and private. Projected into the space is a montage of casual videos shared by female-identifying and non-binary persons of SWANA* origin dancing solo in their rooms. To some\, the videos may seem innocent and innocuous\, but they can also be seen as acts of defiance that assert the autonomy of bodies that have been surveilled\, scrutinized\, and censored throughout history. Alongside these intimate moments is a separate reel showing political figures and protest movements from the SWANA region. The images demonstrate the fluctuating attitudes and regulations impacting human rights and freedoms based on gender\, and exemplify how—whether we are physically at a protest or sharing our physicality in virtual spaces—our bodies are engaged in some level of risk.\n*Southwest Asian/North African\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

This becomes obviously true in the case of biblical museums and archives that desperately rely upon material remains to bring the Bible to life. These archives have been central to Biblical Studies and the maintenance of the Bible as a product of imperial modernity. The Bible as a text and archive plays a critical role in the production and maintenance of the narratives of racial capitalism\, a central aspect of Western modernity. By examining the language and ephemera of contemporary readers\, who have been racialized by imperial logics that produce Bible translations and narrativize objects in archives\, this presentation situates the geography of contemporary racialized readers as the site from which to develop an archive of the Bible. Local geographies\, both the specific geography of the context of the Bible and the geography of a modern reader\, are seen as productive challenges to the universalizing myths of modernity. Greater attention to contextual languages and experiences offer opportunities to unmask the cultural and geographical boundedness of stories\, objects\, and lives that form the core deposit of the Bible.

Major depression is a debilitating psychiatric disease and among the leading causes of disability worldwide. Sleep disturbances are highly prevalent in individuals suffering from depression\, and it is currently understood that the strong association between sleep disturbances and depression stems from a common mechanistic origin. The ventral tegmental area (VTA) is a potential key brain structure to link sleep dysregulation and depression–as the VTA has a central role in sleep/wake regulation\, and its activity is altered during wakefulness in depression. Nonetheless\, it remains unresolved if activity in VTA neurons is altered during sleep in depression\, and if sleep disturbances during depression are inducing depression-related symptoms. My project aims to fill this knowledge gap. My core hypothesis is that chronic alterations in VTA neuron activity during sleep induce sleep/wake disturbances\, which result in depression-related symptoms. I am currently testing this hypothesis by defining the alterations in VTA dopaminergic neuron activity during sleep in a mouse model for depression. During this talk\, I will discuss my preliminary findings and future research directions.

Participatory Development in the Kyrgyz Republic: A Simulation and Discussion DESCRIPTION:Registration for this event has closed.\n\nFrom 2014-2019\, the US Agency for International Development implemented a project in the Kyrgyz Republic to strengthen agricultural productivity and address food insecurity\, primarily among agricultural farming families. One of the first steps the project took in 2014 was to engage with local stakeholders to decide which agricultural value chains to target\, and what type of farm-level assistance would be most effective.\n \nDuring the workshop\, students will each take on the role of a key stakeholder and participate in a community deliberation activity to help the project make these decisions. Students will participate in a variety of participation tools to spur brainstorming and information sharing\, generate ideas\, resolve conflict\, and make group decisions. After the simulation\, students will have a discussion about the exercise\, reflecting on the experience of being a participant\; how participation can unearth previously unidentified problems\, solutions\, and critical contextual factors\; compare the tools and approaches applied to other types of participation tools and approaches\; and the role of community power dynamics in participation activities.\n \nAmy Harris\, a post-doctoral fellow at the Ford School of Public Policy\, will lead this workshop. Amy merges both experience as a former foreign aid implementation professional working on USAID and World Bank projects\, and academic expertise in foreign aid contracting and participatory development. Amy holds a PhD in Public Policy and Management from the University of Washington.\n \nParticipating students must agree to complete select readings prior to the workshop session and to play an active role in the simulation\, as an assigned stakeholder. More details will be provided upon registration. Students are also required to attend the workshop session in its entirety. For those without a 1pm scheduling conflict\, Dr. Harris will continue her post-simulation debrief until 1:15pm (EDT).\n\n---\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

Dr. Kile’s talk offers an introduction to the first two works in the Chinese tradition to consider the making of the garden itself as an art: Ji Cheng's Yuanye (Fashioning Gardens\, 1631-34) and Li Yu's Xianqing ouji (Leisure Notes\, 1671). Both men create a middle category between manual laborer and garden proprietor: that of the garden designer\, who\, they both argue\, is the true master of the garden. The work of raising garden design to the status of an expressive art\, rather than mere craft\, followed the model by which literati painting had been elevated in status during the Song dynasty (960-1279)\, when literati borrowed from theories of poetry to argue that painting\, too\, could express the \"hills and valleys\" in their hearts.\n \n SE Kile is Assistant Professor in the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures at the University of Michigan. A specialist in Ming and Qing literature and culture\, Dr. Kile is finishing a book that theorizes early modern mediation and entrepreneurship through a synthesis of Li Yu's (1611-1680) cultural production.\n\nZoom webinar\; attendance requires registration: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_YJwm_w_JS_iHdY3mpQLHZg UID:80588-20759744@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/80588 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Asia,Chinese Studies LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210330T165512 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210413T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210413T121000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Poetry Blast: Noon Poems DESCRIPTION:Take a few minutes to listen to a poem!

Apart from the hardware of monuments\, he explores how to reform the practice of commemoration itself. Van Houwelingen and the Indonesian artist Iswanto Hartono (Ruangrupa) are currently collaborating on a research project to investigate both the presence and the absence of monuments in colonial locations. Among his case studies are monuments in Indonesia removed after 1945 Independence. The Van Heutsz monument in Jakarta\, designed by the Dutch architect Willem Marinus Dudok\, was destroyed just after the Independence of Indonesia. Meanwhile\, the Van Heutsz monument in Amsterdam exists today as the Indie Nederland Monument. These and other monuments enter into the discussion of commemoration and its erasure.\n\nBio: Hans van Houwelingen (Harlingen 1957) attended Minerva Art Academy in Groningen (Netherlands) and at the Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten in Amsterdam. His work is manifested in the form of interventions projects in public space\, exhibitions\, films\, lectures and publications\, in which he investigates the relations between art\, culture and politics. He publishes regularly in newspapers and magazines. The monograph STIFF Hans van Houwelingen vs. Public Art (Artimo\, 2004) offers an overview of his projects and texts and an extensive reflection on his work. The publication Update describes the permanent update of the Lorentzmonument in Arnhem (NL) during the exhibition Sonsbeek 2008. In 2011 Undone (Jap Sam Books 2011) was published\, presenting nine critical reflections on three recent works. In 1988 Van Houwelingen won a Prix de Rome prize. He received The Queen Wilhelminaring oeuvre award in 2013. Since 2015 he is an honorary member of the Academy van Arts from the Royal Akademy of Science (KNAW). Hans van Houwelingen lives and works in Berlin and Amsterdam.\n\nOrganized by the Committee on Equity\, Department of History of Art and co-sponsored by the Museum Studies Program.

DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThree institutions organized much of colonial economic activity in sub-Saharan Africa: concessions of territory and population to companies\, labor reserves providing nearby employers with male temporary workers\, and colonial trade economies coercing peasants to produce agricultural exports. To make some of the first comparisons of these institutions’ short- and long-run impacts\, I exploit an arbitrary concession-labor reserve border in Mozambique. The concession was Africa’s longest lasting (1891-1942) and heavily restricted mobility\, while the labor reserve (1901-70s) was one of the most important\, sending one third of its men annually to work in South Africa (\"circular migrants\"). Colonial census data show that men in the concession before its abolition were half as likely to be circular migrants and boys were twice as likely to enroll in school\, but after it ended both outcomes converged. However\, even after the concession’s abolition\, marriage rates in the labor reserve were 10 to 25 percent higher and spousal age gaps may have been smaller. The likely explanation is the lasting social effects of nearly a century of circular migration. Consistent with the continuation of these patterns\, women’s HIV prevalence today is twice as high in the former concession while levels of economic development are similar.\n\n*To join the seminar\, please contact at econ.events@umich.edu UID:81500-20901743@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81500 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210106T120111 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210413T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210413T160000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Data Feminism Faculty Reading Group DESCRIPTION:Faculty Reading Group led by Prof. Libby Hemphill on the book\, \"Data Feminism\" by Catherine D'Ignazio and Lauren F.

These institutional assertions are often called into question\, though\, by the stories of members of the higher education community who continue to face marginalization and othering within their professional and educational spaces. This session centers around an embodied case study depicting one woman’s reflections on her experiences of higher education and her interactions with a range of systems that sent a persistent message that she didn’t belong\, that she would never truly be a part of her university community. Through session activities\, participants will consider how these messages manifest and why they continue to occur despite the extensive labor of individuals sincerely committed to advancing equity.\nThe theatrical portion of this session contains strong language. It includes explicit descriptions of racist and classist behaviors and the impact of systemic inequities on individuals and communities.\nThis workshop is designed for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. For faculty and staff\, please contact RackhamEvents@umich.edu to see if we can accommodate your attendance.\nRegistration is required at https://myumi.ch/qgkM0.\nWe want to ensure full and equitable participation in our events.

This paper approaches the Declaration and the treaty negotiations from the standpoint of both rumor and Native American history. The Declaration defames Native Americans. The Treaty claims vast Native lands for the United States without indigenous consent. Among the forces that produced these outcomes were deliberate anti-indigenous—and anti-British—deceptions\, or hoaxes\, or what we might call today “fake news.” Benjamin Franklin\, signer of The Declaration and a leading treaty negotiator\, understood the workings of rumor and the power of misinformation\; he lied actively in his war-time efforts for the United States. This paper examines two hoaxes\, one the invention of settlers in the Smoky Mountains\, the other the invention of Franklin\, suggesting that \"fake news\" helped shape the two documents. What’s more\, this fake news\, and its circulation\, though aimed largely at the Crown\, profoundly reveals the deep colonial and imperial contempt for indigeneity. \n\nNote: The lecture quotes anti-indigenous slurs. It references a Pennsylvania militia attack on an indigenous community\, arguably the greatest atrocity of the Revolutionary War.\n\n\nPlease click the link below to join the webinar:\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/95027136566\nOr iPhone one-tap : \n US: +13126266799\,\,95027136566# or +16468769923\,\,95027136566# \nOr Telephone:\n Dial(for higher quality\, dial a number based on your current location):\n US: +1 312 626 6799 or +1 646 876 9923 or +1 301 715 8592 or +1 346 248 7799 or +1 669 900 6833 or +1 253 215 8782 \n Canada: +1 647 558 0588 or +1 778 907 2071 or +1 204 272 7920 or +1 438 809 7799 or +1 587 328 1099 or +1 647 374 4685 \nWebinar ID: 950 2713 6566\n International numbers available: https://umich.zoom.us/u/acM7CVpLVR\n\nOr an H.323/SIP room system:\n H.323: \n 162.255.37.11 (US West)\n 162.255.36.11 (US East)\n 115.114.131.7 (India Mumbai)\n 115.114.115.7 (India Hyderabad)\n 213.19.144.110 (Amsterdam Netherlands)\n 213.244.140.110 (Germany)\n 103.122.166.55 (Australia Sydney)\n 103.122.167.55 (Australia Melbourne)\n 149.137.40.110 (Singapore)\n 64.211.144.160 (Brazil)\n 69.174.57.160 (Canada Toronto)\n 65.39.152.160 (Canada Vancouver)\n 207.226.132.110 (Japan Tokyo)\n 149.137.24.110 (Japan Osaka)\n Meeting ID: 950 2713 6566\n SIP: 95027136566@zoomcrc.com UID:81664-20941449@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81664 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:american culture,History,LSA Collegiate Lecture LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210414T183050 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210413T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210413T173000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Virtual Information Session about Revenue Agent and Revenue Agent Pathways DESCRIPTION:We are hosting a series of virtual information sessions on ourRevenue Agent and Revenue Agent Pathway positions with the IRS' Small Business and Self-Employed Division.\n\nSpeak to Revenue Agents that are working in these positions and gain a better understanding of the work\, the day-to-day\, and what brought them to the IRS.

Against the onslaught of US products in the world’s media marketplace\, South Korean cinema has successfully defended itself. In 2001\, South Korea became the first film industry in recent history to reclaim its domestic market from Hollywood. In 2006\, local films had a 67 percent market share—the highest such figure in the world except for the US and India—and they have continued to maintain a market share of around 50 percent in the 2010s (52 percent in 2019). Admissions per capita in 2019 also reached 4.37\, up from 1.1 in 1998 and 2.92 in 2010\, the highest around the globe\, when it was 3.5 in the U.S. The number of screens in Korea has soared\, from 511 in 1997 to 3\,079 in 2019. Based on the increasing numbers of moviegoers and domestic films produced\, South Korea has become one of the world’s major film markets (ranked 5th in 2020). Adding to this success\, the high-quality South Korean local product has flowed outward to global film markets to connect with international audiences in commercial cinemas\, in art theaters\, and at major international film festivals. Park Chan-wook’s Oldboy (2003) received the Grand Prix at the Cannes International Film Festival. Hong Sang-soo had great success in Cannes\, Berlin\, and Locarno with Hahaha (2010)\, Right Now\, Wrong Then (2015)\, and On the Beach at Night Alone (2017). Other breakthrough auteurs\, art-house and genre-bending specialists alike\, followed: Lee Chang-dong\, Im Sang-soo\, Kim Jee-woon\, Ryoo Seung-wan and Kim Ki-duk. Bong Joon-ho’s Parasite marked the culmination of South Korean cinema’s global success. Parasite became the first foreign-language film to win Best Picture at the Oscars (2020)\, and swept other major awards including Best Director\, Screenplay\, and International Feature.\n\nIn English-language academic circles\, likewise\, interest in South Korean cinema as a serious scholarly subject has been growing exponentially. The evolution of South Korean cinema scholarship has been noteworthy. Such scholars as Isolde Standish\, David James\, Rob Wilson\, Kyung Hyun Kim\, Soyoung Kim\, Paul Willemen\, and Kathleen McHugh initially ignited the field of South Korean cinema studies and\, almost simultaneously\, two monographs followed in the UK and US: Hyangjin Lee’s Contemporary Korean Cinema: Culture\, Identity and Politics (2000) and Kyung Hyun Kim’s The Remasculinization of Korean Cinema (2004). Since then\, the field has witnessed a blossoming of South Korean cinema studies in the form of monographs\, edited volumes\, and special issues. Although the field has recently greeted many significant scholarly achievements that have extensively discussed South Korea’s cinematic legacies\, it is still difficult to find scholarly articles on pre-1990s South Korean films – and almost none are available on films from the 1970s and 80s. There is also a shortage of articles on individual films and directors\, and no systematically structured book-length study on the South Korean film industry has been published as of the time this conference is being prepared.\n\nThe South Korean Film Industry conference will bring together scholars from major sites of Korean film and media Studies research in the Anglophone world (including Canada\, U.S.\, U.K.\, and Australia) with scholars from Korea and Singapore for an interdisciplinary dialogue on the diversity and complexity of the South Korean film industry. This conference aims to showcase innovative scholarly work examining wide-ranging coverage of subjects such as the production\, exhibition and distribution of South Korean cinema\, state policy and censorship\, coproduction\, film festivals and cinephilia\, independent cinema\, and Hallyu and the global reception of South Korean cinema. \n\nFull conference details and schedule available at:\nhttps://myumi.ch/1p0b3\n\nTuesday\, April 13\n\n7:00-8:00pm Panel 2: Transformation of the South Korean Film Industry 1\n\nChair: Dal Yong JIN (Simon Fraser University)\n\nThe Korean Film Industry’s Ambivalent Relationship to the Studio System\nJason Bechervaise (Sungshil Cyber University) \n\nShort Film Productions in South Korea\nJulian Stringer (University of Nottingham)\n\n8:10-9:40pm Industry Roundtable\n\nSpeakers:\nWON Dong-yeon (Producer\; Along with the Gods)\,\n\nPARK Eun-Kyung (Producer: A Taxi Driver)\,\n\nIM Soon-rye (Director: Little Forest)\,\n\nMIN Kyu-dong (Director: Herstory)\n\nModerator: HEO Chul (Nanyang Technological University\; Director of The Return)\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at ncks.info@umich.edu.

Lonely\, reserved\, and stuck in a dysfunctional household among her frequently quarrelling parents (Seung-Yeon Lee and In-gi Jeong)\, her troublemaking sister Su-hee (Su-yeon Park)\, and bully of a brother Dae-hoon (Sang-yeon Sohn)\, eighth-grader Eun-hee seems to move through life involuntarily\, like a bird with a pair of broken wings. And yet\, she still copes with routine neglect behind a youthful shield of resilience — Kim slowly lays bare Eun-hee’s toughened spirit from a minimalist and acutely feminine perspective.” –Tomris Laffly\, Variety\n\nKorean Cinema NOW 2021 will be presented through a virtual format.

At first glance\, the constructed space is a shimmering homage to the bedroom disco—a sanctuary for uninhibited dance and self-expression. It has also become the setting from which many personal videos are made and shared widely on social media\, where platforms such as Instagram and TikTok have blurred the boundary between public and private. Projected into the space is a montage of casual videos shared by female-identifying and non-binary persons of SWANA* origin dancing solo in their rooms. To some\, the videos may seem innocent and innocuous\, but they can also be seen as acts of defiance that assert the autonomy of bodies that have been surveilled\, scrutinized\, and censored throughout history. Alongside these intimate moments is a separate reel showing political figures and protest movements from the SWANA region. The images demonstrate the fluctuating attitudes and regulations impacting human rights and freedoms based on gender\, and exemplify how—whether we are physically at a protest or sharing our physicality in virtual spaces—our bodies are engaged in some level of risk.\n*Southwest Asian/North African\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

Poland and Hungary - Two Autocratic Attempts to Overthrow Liberal Democracy DESCRIPTION:The Polish election results of 2015 seem to have brought Hungarian and Polish development into synchronicity again\, a congruence that has been apparent many times throughout history. At first glance\, it may appear that we are dealing with regimes of an identical nature\, especially taking into account the similarities of the authoritarian politics practiced by Jarosław Kaczyński (Prawo i Sprawiedliwość\, PiS) and Viktor Orbán (Fiatal Demokraták Szövetsége\, Fidesz)\, characterized by a tendency to eliminate autonomous social forces and control mechanisms\, as well as the application of similar ideological frames. But beneath the superficial similarities\, these attempts are aimed at establishing different types of autocratic regimes. Orbán’s regime\, which Dr. Magyar defines as a mafia state\, is built on the twin motivations of power centralization and the accumulation of personal and family wealth\; the instrument of its power is the adopted political family\, freed of the limitations posed by formal institutions. Kaczyński’s regime is better described as a conservative-autocratic experiment\, driven by ambitions of power and ideological inclinations. In this lecture\, Dr. Magyar will offer his comparative assessment of these two regimes.\n \n Bálint Magyar is a Research Fellow at the Central European University (CEU) Democracy Institute (since 2020)\, holding a University Doctoral degree in Political Economy (1980) from Eötvös Loránd University in Budapest.

This mixing is enhanced whenever the dark photon mass matches the primordial plasma frequency\, leading to resonant conversions between photons and dark photons. These conversions can produce observable cosmological signatures\, including distortions to the cosmic radiation background. In this talk\, I will discuss a new analytic formalism for these conversions that can account for the inhomogeneous distribution of matter in our universe\, leading to new and revised limits on the mixing parameter of light dark photons derived from the COBE/FIRAS measurement of the cosmic microwave background spectrum. I will then describe some ongoing work on a dark sector model that can explain the longstanding ARCADE radio background excess through resonant conversions of dark photons.

Relatedly\, previous work has found that when targets respond to or confront the microaggression\, their response is often criticized (e.g.\, they are seen as overreacting or troublemakers). In this talk\, I will present results from a pilot study that investigated witnesses’ criticism of a target’s response to gender microaggressions and whether that criticism predicted more negative evaluations about the target. I also examine whether the witness’ gender plays a role in the kinds of criticism given (e.g.\, should have defended herself\, took things personally) and in the evaluations they make (e.g.\, competence\, negative agency).\n\nDesiree\n\nTitle: \nAssessing Men’s Proclivity to Recognizing Subtle Gender Bias Against Women in STEM\n\nAbstract: \nWomen in Science\, Technology\, Engineering\, and Mathematics (STEM) frequently encounter gender bias (e.g.\, questioning of their STEM ability\, assignment to secretarial roles). Given the subtle and ambiguous nature of contemporary sexism\, people vary in their likelihood of recognizing subtly sexist interactions. Past research demonstrates that women are more sensitive to gender bias and more readily recognize it when it occurs. However\, there remains a dearth of research related to men’s experiences in witnessing bias. In the present research\, we ask: (1) what are the individual difference measures that contribute to men’s proclivity in recognizing subtle gender bias\, (2) what are the affective consequences of recognizing subtle gender bias during group tasks\, and (3) how do men’s affective states after witnessing subtle gender bias influence their interest in working with women in mixed-gendered groups? STEM-identified men read a fake transcript depicting a conversation between 3 STEM-identified college students (1 woman\, 2 men). Participants were exposed to a transcript in which a man demonstrates subtle gender bias against a woman. After reading the transcript\, participants completed measures related to their affect (state and collective)\, their impressions of the interaction (open and closed-ended)\, and behavioral measures related to the students in the transcript. Open-ended responses were coded to determine recognition of bias. Findings and implications for this work are discussed.

This book pivots around the ideas of al-Ḥakīm al-Tirmidhī\, the first Muslim theologian and mystic to write on the topic of wilāya.\n \n By looking at its structural roots in Arab and Islamic social organization\, Prof. Palmer has reframed the discussion about sainthood in early Islam to show how it relates more broadly to other forms of authority in Islam. This book not only looks anew at the influential ideas of al-Tirmidhī but also challenges current modes of thought around the nature of authority in Islamicate societies.\n\nRegister at https://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJIldeugpjkqGdH8DlDmEUC3-FqLIhk6ZRCF UID:83565-21428642@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/83565 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Books,Global Islamic Studies,Iiss Lecture Series,Interdisciplinary Islamic Studies Seminar,islamic studies,Workshop LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210120T162930 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210414T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210414T141500 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral & Experimental Economics (SBEE): Interregional Contact and National Identity DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nWe study the long-run effects of contact with individuals from other regions on beliefs\, preferences and the formation of a shared national identity. We combine a natural experiment\, therandom assignment of male conscripts to different locations throughout Spain\,with tailored survey data. Being randomly assigned to complete military service outside of one’s region of residence fosters contact with conscripts fromother regions\, and increases sympathy towards people from the region of service\, measured several decades later. We also observe an increase in identification with Spain for individuals originating from regions with peripheral nationalism. Our evidence suggests that intergroup exposure in early adulthood canhave long-lasting effects on individual preferences and identity formation.\n\nFor information on how to watch this lecture and sign up for the SBEE mailing list to receive notice of upcoming events\, please visit the SBEE website:\nhttps://umbee.github.io/SBEE_Seminars UID:81012-20832806@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81012 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210325T162545 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210414T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210414T150000 SUMMARY:Other:Study Circles DESCRIPTION:Do you miss studying at the library?

We combine unique data on college applicants’ program preferences\, programs’ admission decisions\, and student outcomes to provide direct evidence on the value of screening and the winner’s curse in matching markets. To this end\, we leverage the two-tiered Danish admission system with predetermined shares of GPA-based and program-specific screening-based admissions. We first use an RD design to document that applicant screening provides extra information over GPA on program completion. We then take advantage of an information experiment where one medical program intensified their screening efforts in a difference-in-difference design. While this program substantially increased completion rates after the reform\, their experiment worsened the winner's curse in the rival program\, providing direct evidence for common values. In the second part of the analysis\, we develop and estimate a structural model that yields these empirical facts as equilibrium outcomes of a two-sided matching market. Our counterfactual analysis aims to analyze potential inefficiencies of the current DA mechanism by allowing for alternative information structures and assessing changes in players’ strategies and welfare outcomes.\n\n* To join the seminar\, please contact at econ.events@umich.edu UID:81206-20872033@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81206 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210414T183033 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210414T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210414T160000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Classical Charter Schools Information Session: Education Majors and Professionals DESCRIPTION:Interested in a meaningful\, recession-resistant career after college?

As part of that plan\, focus groups were held with students across every department and program in the College of Engineering\, to gather qualitative data that can serve as metrics to consider how the DEI strategic plan is progressing. Over thirty focus groups were held with more than 220 undergraduate and graduate students across the College in the 2019-2020 and 2020-2021 academic years. Students were asked about various elements of their perception of DEI\, including factors that impacted their sense of inclusion\, if they had been treated differently based on their identity\, and their perceptions of the College and their department with regards to diversity. The data collected in these focus groups illuminates the nuance and complexity of the engineering student experience\, and how that experience\, and their perceptions of DEI in the College\, can vary based on their identities and home department.

The electron Larmor radius is much smaller than the macroscale (e.g.\, geometric scale of the domain or device size)\, while the ion Larmor radius is much larger. Ions are weakly affected by the magnetic field. Such regimes occur in parts of Earths’ ionosphere\, the solar chromosphere\, and collisionless shocks in space. In natural conditions\, the electric field perpendicular to the magnetic field is often created due to the relative flow of the electrons and ions. In laboratory and technological plasmas\, an external electric field perpendicular to the magnetic field is applied so that the ions can be extracted and accelerated by the electric field\, while the electrons remain trapped by the magnetic field enhancing the discharge efficiency. Such cross-field (or ExB) discharges are widely used in magnetron sputtering devices for material processing and plasma electric propulsion such as Hall thrusters. Despite their long history\, many aspects of ExB physics are only qualitatively understood precluding the predictive modeling of\, for example\, the next generation of Hall thruster for space propulsion or the theoretical prediction of ionosphere irregularities. Quantitative characteristics of nonlinear plasma instabilities\, plasma turbulence\, and associated anomalous transport remain poorly understood. Physics of instabilities and transport in partially magnetized ExB plasmas will be discussed\, presenting recent advances in analytical theory and numerical approaches\, and highlighting critical questions and problems. \n\nAbout the Speaker: \nAndrei Smolyakov is a Professor in the Department of Physics and Engineering Physics at the University of Saskatchewan\, Canada.

This becomes obviously true in the case of biblical museums and archives that desperately rely upon material remains to bring the Bible to life. These archives have been central to Biblical Studies and the maintenance of the Bible as a product of imperial modernity. The Bible as a text and archive plays a critical role in the production and maintenance of the narratives of racial capitalism\, a central aspect of Western modernity. By examining the language and ephemera of contemporary readers\, who have been racialized by imperial logics that produce Bible translations and narrativize objects in archives\, this presentation situates the geography of contemporary racialized readers as the site from which to develop an archive of the Bible. Local geographies\, both the specific geography of the context of the Bible and the geography of a modern reader\, are seen as productive challenges to the universalizing myths of modernity. Greater attention to contextual languages and experiences offer opportunities to unmask the cultural and geographical boundedness of stories\, objects\, and lives that form the core deposit of the Bible.\n\nPlease register here: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_d4hdv79nRRO1MpB0zbNDCQ UID:80657-20769635@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/80657 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:literature,Middle East Studies,Museum,religion,Research,Scholarship,Talk,Virtual LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210407T085905 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210414T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210414T170000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:CCMB / DCMB Weekly Seminar DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nMy lab's research involves the development and application of systems biology approaches—combining computation\, machine learning\, quantitative modeling\, and experiments—to study the immune system in health and disease. Recent technological and computational advances allow comprehensive interrogation of multiple modalities (e.g.\, proteins\, mRNAs\, immune receptor sequences) in single cell resolution in the human population. Here I will highlight our work in the analysis human and single cell variations along the axes of early immune development\, vaccination\, and COVID-19. If time permits\, I will also discuss the integration of tissue imaging\, machine learning\, and multiscale dynamical modeling of immune cell interactions to investigate the homeostatic regulation of autoreactive T cells.\n\n* * *\n\nBiography: Dr. Tsang is a senior investigator in the NIH Intramural Research Program and leads a laboratory focusing on systems and quantitative immunology at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID).

The experiment was undertaken to resolve the tension between the Standard Model and the previous measurement taken at Brookhaven National Labs. The measured value of the muon anomalous magnetic moment is $a_\mu(FNAL) = 116592040(54)×10^{−11}$. This result is in good agreement with Brookhaven's previous measurement. The new world average\, $a_\mu(Exp) = 116592061(41)×10^{−11}$\, shows a difference from the theoretical value\, $a_\mu(Exp) = 116591810(43)×10^{−11}$\, of 4.2 standard deviations\, strongly hinting at physics beyond the Standard Model. The experiment requires the simultaneous measurement of the muon precession frequency\, the magnetic field\, and the muons' distribution in the field. All three of these measurements will be discussed in context\, along with the main systematic corrections and uncertainties.\n UID:83247-21322432@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/83247 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210322T113841 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210414T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210414T170000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Lessons from a Pandemic: Leading with Science featuring Dr. Joneigh Khaldun DESCRIPTION:In our dynamic world\, the pursuit of health equity is both valiant and never complete.

For the 6.5 billion solar mass black hole in the giant elliptical galaxy M87\, the EHT estimated the spin orientation and constrained models of accretion on Schwarzschild radius scales. This work relied on two decades of technical advances in ultra-high resolution interferometry and theoretical General Relativistic Magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) simulations. This talk will review these advances and recent new EHT results. We will also look to the next decade when a next-generation EHT (ngEHT) that doubles the number of participating radio dishes in the VLBI network will enable time-lapse movies of M87 that link the black hole to the relativistic jet it powers. For SgrA*\, the Galactic Center black hole that evolves on time scales 1000 times faster\, ngEHT will produce real-time video.

In particular\, these distributions display a large left tail of negative growth rates during recessions and a large right tail of positive growth rates during booms. We find similar results at the industry level: industries with falling growth rates see more left-skewed growth rates of firm sales\, employment\, and productivity. We then build a heterogeneous-agents model in which entrepreneurs face shocks with time-varying skewness that matches the firm-level distributions we document for the United States. Our quantitative results show that a negative shock to the skewness of firms’ productivity growth (keeping the mean and variance constant) generates a persistent drop in output\, investment\, hiring\, and consumption. This suggests the rising risk of large negative firm-level shocks could be an important factor driving recessions. \n* To join the seminar\, please contact at econ.events@umich.edu UID:83752-21491326@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/83752 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210115T142326 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210414T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210414T170000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:School of Nursing Transfer Information Session DESCRIPTION:Thinking about transferring to the School of Nursing undergraduate program?

Against the onslaught of US products in the world’s media marketplace\, South Korean cinema has successfully defended itself. In 2001\, South Korea became the first film industry in recent history to reclaim its domestic market from Hollywood. In 2006\, local films had a 67 percent market share—the highest such figure in the world except for the US and India—and they have continued to maintain a market share of around 50 percent in the 2010s (52 percent in 2019). Admissions per capita in 2019 also reached 4.37\, up from 1.1 in 1998 and 2.92 in 2010\, the highest around the globe\, when it was 3.5 in the U.S. The number of screens in Korea has soared\, from 511 in 1997 to 3\,079 in 2019. Based on the increasing numbers of moviegoers and domestic films produced\, South Korea has become one of the world’s major film markets (ranked 5th in 2020). Adding to this success\, the high-quality South Korean local product has flowed outward to global film markets to connect with international audiences in commercial cinemas\, in art theaters\, and at major international film festivals. Park Chan-wook’s Oldboy (2003) received the Grand Prix at the Cannes International Film Festival. Hong Sang-soo had great success in Cannes\, Berlin\, and Locarno with Hahaha (2010)\, Right Now\, Wrong Then (2015)\, and On the Beach at Night Alone (2017). Other breakthrough auteurs\, art-house and genre-bending specialists alike\, followed: Lee Chang-dong\, Im Sang-soo\, Kim Jee-woon\, Ryoo Seung-wan and Kim Ki-duk. Bong Joon-ho’s Parasite marked the culmination of South Korean cinema’s global success. Parasite became the first foreign-language film to win Best Picture at the Oscars (2020)\, and swept other major awards including Best Director\, Screenplay\, and International Feature.\n\nIn English-language academic circles\, likewise\, interest in South Korean cinema as a serious scholarly subject has been growing exponentially. The evolution of South Korean cinema scholarship has been noteworthy. Such scholars as Isolde Standish\, David James\, Rob Wilson\, Kyung Hyun Kim\, Soyoung Kim\, Paul Willemen\, and Kathleen McHugh initially ignited the field of South Korean cinema studies and\, almost simultaneously\, two monographs followed in the UK and US: Hyangjin Lee’s Contemporary Korean Cinema: Culture\, Identity and Politics (2000) and Kyung Hyun Kim’s The Remasculinization of Korean Cinema (2004). Since then\, the field has witnessed a blossoming of South Korean cinema studies in the form of monographs\, edited volumes\, and special issues. Although the field has recently greeted many significant scholarly achievements that have extensively discussed South Korea’s cinematic legacies\, it is still difficult to find scholarly articles on pre-1990s South Korean films – and almost none are available on films from the 1970s and 80s. There is also a shortage of articles on individual films and directors\, and no systematically structured book-length study on the South Korean film industry has been published as of the time this conference is being prepared.\n\nThe South Korean Film Industry conference will bring together scholars from major sites of Korean film and media Studies research in the Anglophone world (including Canada\, U.S.\, U.K.\, and Australia) with scholars from Korea and Singapore for an interdisciplinary dialogue on the diversity and complexity of the South Korean film industry. This conference aims to showcase innovative scholarly work examining wide-ranging coverage of subjects such as the production\, exhibition and distribution of South Korean cinema\, state policy and censorship\, coproduction\, film festivals and cinephilia\, independent cinema\, and Hallyu and the global reception of South Korean cinema. \n\nFull conference details and schedule available at:\nhttps://myumi.ch/1p0b3\n\nWednesday\, April 14\n\n7:00-8:00pm Panel 3: Transformation of the South Korean Film Industry 2\n\nChair: Daniel Herbert (University of Michigan)\n\nThe South Korean Animation Industries\nDaniel Martin (KAIST)\n\nKorean Remakes of Korean Films\nSeung-Ae Lee (Macquarie University)\n\n8:10-9:30pm Panel 4: Film Cultures\n\nChair: Irhe Sohn (Smith College)\n\nSong Kang-Ho\, A Star of New Korean Cinema\nNoh Kwang-woo (Korea University)\n\nReel Heritage: the History of the Korean Film Archive and Film Restoration\nAriel Schudson (Film Archivist)\n\nCreating a “Cheerful” Cinema: South Korea’s Cold War Regimes and State Film Censorship\, 1960s-1980s\nHye Seung Chung (Colorado State University)\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at ncks.info@umich.edu.

Steinberg\, Distinguished Professor of Asian Studies Emeritus\, Georgetown University\, Washington\, DC \n\nMoe Thuzar\, Fellow and Co-coordinator\, Myanmar Studies Programme\, ISEAS-Yusof Ishak Institute\, Singapore\n\nCo-moderated by John Ciorciari\, Director\, Weiser Diplomacy Center\, University of Michigan\, and Donald K. Emmerson\, Director\, Southeast Asia Program\, Stanford University\n\nShocking events obliterate context. The coup in Myanmar on 1 February 2021 is a case in point. Who could imagine the cruelty of the Burmese generals who on February 1st 2021 grabbed power and proceeded to retain it by arresting thousands and murdering hundreds of its local opponents? Who expected that on February 2nd the country’s youth would launch a nonviolent Civil Disobedience Movement (CDM) and keep it going and growing against such massively intimidating odds? In this webinar\, two experts will provide the essential but all too often missing contexts—current and historical\, domestic and foreign\, political and socioeconomic—within which the crisis can be understood\, its future projected\, and its implications assessed. To those ends\, the on-the-ground knowledge\, personal experience\, and close observer's insights of Burmese scholar Moe Thuzar will interact with the insights of American professor David Steinberg based on his Burmese experiences and scholarship dating back into the 20th century. \n\nThe webinar will consider in particular what the coup and its aftermath may imply for Southeast Asia and its relations with China. Relevant in that regard is the involvement of all four panel members in a recent collection\, The Deer and the Dragon: Southeast Asia and China in the 21st Century—Steinberg and Ciorciari as authors\, Emmerson as editor\, and Thuzar as an analyst who is using the book in her own research. \n\nDavid I. Steinberg is Distinguished Professor of Asian Studies Emeritus\, Georgetown University\, where he directed its Asian studies program (1997-2007). Other positions he has held include the presidency of the Mansfield Center for Pacific Affairs and Southeast Asia-related US foreign-policy posts as a member of the Senior Foreign Service. He has also represented The Asia Foundation in South Korea\, Burma\, Hong Kong\, and Washington\, D.C. His 15 books and monographs include one translation\, more than 150 articles\, and several hundred op-eds.. Among these books are: Myanmar: The Dynamics of an Evolving Polity (ed.\, 2015)\; Burma/Myanmar: What Everyone Needs to Know (2013\, 2nd edition)\; Modern China-Myanmar Relations: Dilemmas of Mutual Dependence (with Fan Hongwei\, 2012)\; Turmoil in Burma: Contested Legitimacies in Myanmar (2006)\; Burma: The State of Myanmar (2001)\; and Burma’s Road to Development (1981). His expertise includes the two Koreas\, about which he has written widely. Professor Steinberg was educated at the University of London’s School of Oriental and African Studies\, Harvard University\, Darmouth College\, and Lingnan University in Canton (now Guangzhou)\, China.\n\nMoe Thuzar joined the Institute of Southeast Asian Studies in Singapore in 2008. Her responsibilities there have included managing or co-managing its Myanmar Studies Programme\, serving as a lead researcher in its ASEAN Studies Centre\, and helping the Centre engage with Myanmar regarding its turn to chair ASEAN in 2014. She spent the 2019-2020 academic year as a Fox International Fellow at Yale University's MacMillan Center researching the socio-cultural underpinnings of Burma’s Cold War foreign policy for her National University of Singapore PhD. Earlier she worked for a decade at the ASEAN Secretariat\, where she headed its Human Development Unit. Her many publications include\, as co-author\, the 2020 and 2019 editions of ISEAS’s widely read State of Southeast Asia: Survey Report.

Lonely\, reserved\, and stuck in a dysfunctional household among her frequently quarrelling parents (Seung-Yeon Lee and In-gi Jeong)\, her troublemaking sister Su-hee (Su-yeon Park)\, and bully of a brother Dae-hoon (Sang-yeon Sohn)\, eighth-grader Eun-hee seems to move through life involuntarily\, like a bird with a pair of broken wings.

At first glance\, the constructed space is a shimmering homage to the bedroom disco—a sanctuary for uninhibited dance and self-expression. It has also become the setting from which many personal videos are made and shared widely on social media\, where platforms such as Instagram and TikTok have blurred the boundary between public and private. Projected into the space is a montage of casual videos shared by female-identifying and non-binary persons of SWANA* origin dancing solo in their rooms. To some\, the videos may seem innocent and innocuous\, but they can also be seen as acts of defiance that assert the autonomy of bodies that have been surveilled\, scrutinized\, and censored throughout history. Alongside these intimate moments is a separate reel showing political figures and protest movements from the SWANA region. The images demonstrate the fluctuating attitudes and regulations impacting human rights and freedoms based on gender\, and exemplify how—whether we are physically at a protest or sharing our physicality in virtual spaces—our bodies are engaged in some level of risk.\n*Southwest Asian/North African\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

Yet the role that task complexity plays in determining group performance remains poorly understood\, in part because no clear language exists to express it in a way that allows for straightforward comparisons across tasks. Here we avoid this analytical difficulty by identifying a class of tasks for which complexity can be varied systematically while keeping all other elements of the task unchanged. We then test the effects of task complexity in a preregistered\, two-phase experiment in which 1\,200 individuals were evaluated on a series of tasks of varying complexity (phase 1) and then randomly assigned to solve similar tasks either in interacting groups or as independent individuals (phase 2). We find that groups are faster and more efficient than similar sized collections of independent problem solvers for complex tasks but not for simpler ones. Leveraging our highly granular digital data\, we define and precisely measure group process losses and synergistic gains\, and show that the balance between the two switches signs for intermediate values of task complexity. Finally\, we find that groups generate more solutions more rapidly\, and explore the solution space more broadly\, than independent problem solvers\, finding higher quality solutions than all but the best individuals.\n\nDuncan Watts is the author of three books: Six Degrees: The Science of a Connected Age (W.W.

The blues are that musical form born in the freedom found in the wake of American slavery. They are characterized by the expressive deviations of the blue note and the transformation of memories of the sounds of the plantation (field hollers\, wailings\, and so on) into something more mellifluous. Woods contends that\, with a bit of synesthesia\, the modes of listening and sounding out afforded by the blues might help us make better sense of the world and give us a sense of how a better world might be. \n This talk is interested in the formation of what we might call an epistemology of the violets\, or that way of seeing and being in the world at the intersection of the blues and the reds\, with “red” here serving as a chromatic stand in for the epistemological and sensorial insights embedded in Japanese creative works. To date\, Afro-Japanese scholarship has been framed primarily by concepts such as representation and reception. While informative in their own way\, such frameworks prime us to think about transferences from one culture (“blues”) to another (“reds”). Addressing collaborations such as the artwork produced by Pharrell Williams and Murakami Takashi\, this talk provides general heuristics for those interested in the study of the epistemological possibilities of purple\, or a way of seeing and creating possible worlds that is neither red nor blue—neither African American nor Japanese—but both red and blue\, the emergence upon their coalescence. \n \nWill Bridges is Associate Professor of Japanese at the University of Rochester. His scholarship has been recognized by the Fulbright Program\, the Japan Foundation\, the Association for Asian Studies\, and the National Endowment for the Humanities. His first monograph\, *Playing in the Shadows: Fictions of Race and Blackness in Postwar Japanese Literature*\, was published in 2020 by the University of Michigan Press. He is currently working on two manuscripts. The first is *The Futurist Turn: The Japanese Humanities and the Re-imagining of the Unwelfare State*. The second is *The Black Pacific: A Poetic History*.

Pulling the Past into the Present: Curating Islamic Art in a Changing World DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\; register at https://myumi.ch/gjQWq\n\nThis year's DISC Distinguished Lecture is the keynote for the Historians of Islamic Art Association (HIAA) 2021 Symposium.\nhttps://lsa.umich.edu/histart/hiaa-symposium.html\n\nDemographic and social change presents museums with challenges at various levels. Islam has become a core reference in public discourse\, which often also affects\, in important ways\, views of collective identity and personal political stances. The dominant place of Islam in global debate does not stop at the doors of our museums. The main argument of this presentation is that exhibitions of Islamic art are\, whether we like it or not\, sites of identity negotiation where relations to ‘me and my world’ are established. Consequentially we could do better to provide visitors with the tools to make the galleries useful to them.\n \nThis talk will take a closer look at the concept of culture underlying exhibition spaces and identity formation with regard to ‘Islam.’ In what ways do the social dynamics surrounding the subject of Islam function\, and how do these impact museum spaces? What role do museums have in these emerging dynamics? And how do curators respond to the shifting needs of visitors? The classical layout and communication strategies of Islamic art collections were often insufficiently framed to address these layered concerns\, despite curators’ knowledge of the rich diversity of Islamicate histories. Thus two main topics will be addressed here: why do we in museums present art\, material culture and archaeology of premodern Islamicate societies as detached from transregional and multi-layered networks in closed culturalistic circles\, while in research we\, hopefully\, go beyond these limitations. And why\, in exhibitions do we still face enormous challenges in enabling visitors to explore the contents and contexts of our objects through various access points? In many cases we fail institutionally in our efforts to awaken the interest and imaginary power in museum visitors.\n \nDuring the last few years\, different curatorial teams nevertheless have strived to discover better techniques and narratives to convey this timely diversity. The Museum for Islamic Art in Berlin hosts one such team\, and I will discuss some successful—and some less successful—examples of experimentation on the ground from the past few years.

U-M Industrial and Operations Engineering graduate students and faculty are especially encouraged to attend.\n\nTitle:\nThe Interaction of Autonomy & Training for First-Person Drone Flights\n\nAbstract:\nWhile increasing automation has made UAVs\, aka drones\, accessible to a wider population of operators as compared to conventional aviation\, such increased use has led to many preventable accidents. While added automation may make flight control more stable\, the remote nature of the task can lead to degraded situation awareness\, mode confusion and increased crashes. There are competing theories as to how much training and onboard autonomy are needed to successfully train drone operators\, and this effort will discuss the results of a series of three studies that investigate balancing training and autonomy to achieve expertise\, including how hidden Markov models can be used to predict who successfully obtains expertise and when a transition from novice to expert occurs.\n\nBio:\nProfessor Mary (Missy) Cummings received her B.S. in Mathematics from the US Naval Academy in 1988\, her M.S. in Space Systems Engineering from the Naval Postgraduate School in 1994\, and her Ph.D. in Systems Engineering from the University of Virginia in 2004. A naval officer and military pilot from 1988-1999\, she was one of the U.S. Navy's first female fighter pilots. She is currently a Professor in the Duke University Electrical and Computer Engineering Department\, and the Director of the Humans and Autonomy Laboratory. She is an American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) Fellow\, and a member of several national committees. Her research interests include human supervisory control\, explainable artificial intelligence\, human-autonomous system collaboration\, human-robot interaction\, human-systems engineering\, and the ethical and social impact of technology.

Faeth Memorial Lecture: Thinking Outside the Sphere: Engineering Challenges and Opportunities for Returning to the Moon DESCRIPTION:Professor Bonnie J. Dunbar\nJohn and Bea Slattery Chair\nDepartment of Aerospace Engineering\nTexas A&M University\n\nIn 1969\, the first human\, Neil Armstrong\, stepped on the surface of the Moon. He did so at a time when most of the technologies required to do so were in their infancy. Computers were not every desk. Cell phones were a distant vision\, and communication\, navigation and weather satellites did not exist. An International Space Station was the subject of Science Fiction and visionaries. The Apollo program not only propelled the US in the second half of the 20th century\, it created new laboratories\, new technologies\, new graduate degrees and a workforce which expanded this knowledge into the 21st Century globally\, manifesting itself through new companies and enterprises. The Artemis program plans to return the United States to the Moon as early as 2024. However\, new challenges still remain. What are they and how will solving them pave our way to human exploration of Mars? Why does it matter? Dr. Dunbar will describe some of the Apollo events which affected her own academic and professional pathway and explain how similar circumstances for the Artemis Program will help to steer the future for engineering\, science\, and the 21st Century workforce.\n\nAbout the speaker...\n\nDr. Dunbar is a retired NASA astronaut\, engineer and educator\, currently with Texas A&M Engineering as a Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station (TEES) John and Bea Slattery Chair in the Department of Aerospace Engineering. \nDunbar\, who is a member of the National Academy of Engineering\, came to Texas A&M from the University of Houston where she was an M.D. Anderson Professor of Mechanical Engineering. There she provided leadership in the development of a new integrated university science\, technology\, engineering and mathematics (STEM) center and was Director of the Science and Engineering Fair of Houston. She also taught the Mechanical Engineering “Introduction to Engineering” course\, and directed the SICSA Space Architecture and Aerospace graduate programs. She has devoted her life to furthering engineering\, engineering education\, and the pursuit of human space exploration.\nDunbar worked for The Rockwell International Space Division Company building Space Shuttle Columbia and worked for 27 years at NASA\, first as a flight controller\; then as a mission specialist astronaut\, where she flew five space shuttle flights\, logging more than 50 days in space. She then served for 7 years as a member of the NASA Senior Executive Service (SES).

From about nine o’clock in the evening on April 30\, a crowd made up primarily of young male servants and apprentices of craftsmen ran through the streets of the city\, targeting enclaves of strangers\, the contemporary English term for immigrants. This riot tells us a good deal about the internal political economy of early sixteenth-century London. The riot had its genesis in an incendiary combination of labour grievance of young craft workers on the one hand and\, on the other\, implicit encouragement of violence from parts of the city’s merchant oligarchy. The riot was not only an expression of young London artisans’ resentment of “job-stealing immigrants” but an attempt to goad their masters and the governors of their city to be more protective of their interests.\n\nShannon McSheffrey is professor of history at Concordia University. Professor McSheffrey's research interests centre around law\, mitigation\, gender roles\, civic culture\, marriage\, literacy\, heresy\, and popular religion in late medieval and early Tudor England. She has published five books exploring these issues\, including Gender and Heresy: Women and Men in Lollard Communities\, 1420-1530 (University of Pennsylvania Press\, 1995)\; Marriage\, Sex\, and Civic Culture in Late Medieval London (University of Pennsylvania Press\, 2006)\; and Seeking Sanctuary: Law\, Mitigation\, and Politics in English Courts\, 1400-1550 (Oxford University Press\, 2017). She is currently writing a book about the Evil May Day riot in London in 1517.\n\nThis event is free and open to the public.\n\nThis event is part of the Thursday Series of the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

In 2006\, local films had a 67 percent market share—the highest such figure in the world except for the US and India—and they have continued to maintain a market share of around 50 percent in the 2010s (52 percent in 2019). Admissions per capita in 2019 also reached 4.37\, up from 1.1 in 1998 and 2.92 in 2010\, the highest around the globe\, when it was 3.5 in the U.S. The number of screens in Korea has soared\, from 511 in 1997 to 3\,079 in 2019. Based on the increasing numbers of moviegoers and domestic films produced\, South Korea has become one of the world’s major film markets (ranked 5th in 2020). Adding to this success\, the high-quality South Korean local product has flowed outward to global film markets to connect with international audiences in commercial cinemas\, in art theaters\, and at major international film festivals. Park Chan-wook’s Oldboy (2003) received the Grand Prix at the Cannes International Film Festival. Hong Sang-soo had great success in Cannes\, Berlin\, and Locarno with Hahaha (2010)\, Right Now\, Wrong Then (2015)\, and On the Beach at Night Alone (2017). Other breakthrough auteurs\, art-house and genre-bending specialists alike\, followed: Lee Chang-dong\, Im Sang-soo\, Kim Jee-woon\, Ryoo Seung-wan and Kim Ki-duk. Bong Joon-ho’s Parasite marked the culmination of South Korean cinema’s global success. Parasite became the first foreign-language film to win Best Picture at the Oscars (2020)\, and swept other major awards including Best Director\, Screenplay\, and International Feature.\n\nIn English-language academic circles\, likewise\, interest in South Korean cinema as a serious scholarly subject has been growing exponentially. The evolution of South Korean cinema scholarship has been noteworthy. Such scholars as Isolde Standish\, David James\, Rob Wilson\, Kyung Hyun Kim\, Soyoung Kim\, Paul Willemen\, and Kathleen McHugh initially ignited the field of South Korean cinema studies and\, almost simultaneously\, two monographs followed in the UK and US: Hyangjin Lee’s Contemporary Korean Cinema: Culture\, Identity and Politics (2000) and Kyung Hyun Kim’s The Remasculinization of Korean Cinema (2004). Since then\, the field has witnessed a blossoming of South Korean cinema studies in the form of monographs\, edited volumes\, and special issues. Although the field has recently greeted many significant scholarly achievements that have extensively discussed South Korea’s cinematic legacies\, it is still difficult to find scholarly articles on pre-1990s South Korean films – and almost none are available on films from the 1970s and 80s. There is also a shortage of articles on individual films and directors\, and no systematically structured book-length study on the South Korean film industry has been published as of the time this conference is being prepared.\n\nThe South Korean Film Industry conference will bring together scholars from major sites of Korean film and media Studies research in the Anglophone world (including Canada\, U.S.\, U.K.\, and Australia) with scholars from Korea and Singapore for an interdisciplinary dialogue on the diversity and complexity of the South Korean film industry. This conference aims to showcase innovative scholarly work examining wide-ranging coverage of subjects such as the production\, exhibition and distribution of South Korean cinema\, state policy and censorship\, coproduction\, film festivals and cinephilia\, independent cinema\, and Hallyu and the global reception of South Korean cinema. \n\nFull conference details and schedule available at:\nhttps://myumi.ch/1p0b3\n\nThursday\, April 15\n\n7:00-8:00pm Panel 5: BIFF\, Film Criticism\, and Transnationality\n\nChair: Markus Nornes (University of Michigan)\n\n“Festival or Box Office?

It also has unique ways of approaching a religion such as Christianity with its strong historical focus. On the one hand\, time travel technology means that one can visit the first century to look for Jesus or attempt to witness the resurrection. On the other hand\, stories of humanity’s distant future among the stars allows reflection on where our past and present trajectories might take our religious traditions. Stories set in the very near future also provide opportunities to explore possible reactions to new technologies or alien encounters. This presentation will provide a survey of treatments of these topics as we consider how the history of science fiction provides insights on the history of Christianity.\n\nJoin us on Thursday\, April 15 from 7-8:30pm EDT.\n\nPlease register here: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_QyDBm-8uRV67pLu8EDIfKA\n\n*Co-sponsored by the Michigan Center for Early Christian Studies and the UM Department of Middle East Studies* UID:83208-21312499@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/83208 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Interdisciplinary,literature,Middle East Studies,religion,Virtual LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210324T071357 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210415T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210415T200000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:The University of Michigan Medical School Program on Health\, Spirituality and Religion presents \"An Evening with Health\, Spirituality and Religion: A Multi-disciplinary Conversation on a Challenging End-of-Life Clinical Scenario DESCRIPTION:Join us for a discussion with a panel of experts from a variety of disciplines as we unpack a recent challenging case at our own institution.

Lonely\, reserved\, and stuck in a dysfunctional household among her frequently quarrelling parents (Seung-Yeon Lee and In-gi Jeong)\, her troublemaking sister Su-hee (Su-yeon Park)\, and bully of a brother Dae-hoon (Sang-yeon Sohn)\, eighth-grader Eun-hee seems to move through life involuntarily\, like a bird with a pair of broken wings. And yet\, she still copes with routine neglect behind a youthful shield of resilience — Kim slowly lays bare Eun-hee’s toughened spirit from a minimalist and acutely feminine perspective.” –Tomris Laffly\, Variety\n\nKorean Cinema NOW 2021 will be presented through a virtual format.

At first glance\, the constructed space is a shimmering homage to the bedroom disco—a sanctuary for uninhibited dance and self-expression. It has also become the setting from which many personal videos are made and shared widely on social media\, where platforms such as Instagram and TikTok have blurred the boundary between public and private. Projected into the space is a montage of casual videos shared by female-identifying and non-binary persons of SWANA* origin dancing solo in their rooms. To some\, the videos may seem innocent and innocuous\, but they can also be seen as acts of defiance that assert the autonomy of bodies that have been surveilled\, scrutinized\, and censored throughout history. Alongside these intimate moments is a separate reel showing political figures and protest movements from the SWANA region. The images demonstrate the fluctuating attitudes and regulations impacting human rights and freedoms based on gender\, and exemplify how—whether we are physically at a protest or sharing our physicality in virtual spaces—our bodies are engaged in some level of risk.\n*Southwest Asian/North African\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

I develop a model to separately identify markups\, markdowns and productivity using production and cost data. I use it to examine the effects of a large-scale consolidation policy in the Chinese cigarette manufacturing industry. Exploiting size thresholds in the policy\, I find that it increased leaf price markdowns by a third\, but did not increase markups or productivity. As a result\, income inequality between tobacco farmers and manufacturing workers increased by twice as much as it would have without the consolidation.\n\n* To join the seminar\, please contact at econ.events@umich.edu UID:81747-20949403@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81747 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210412T132410 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210416T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210416T110000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Michael Woodroofe Lecture Series: Ian McKeague\, Professor\, Department of Biostatistics\, Columbia University DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Stein's method is a well-known technique for finding rates of convergence in central limit theory. This talk discusses the use of Stein's method to study discrete representations of high-dimensional distributions that arise in quantum mechanics. These representations can explain how quantum effects result from the interaction of finitely many classical \"worlds\,\" with the role of sample size played by the number of worlds. The wave function is then recovered (as a secondary object) from observations of particles in these worlds\, without knowing the world from which any particular observation originates.

In January 2021\, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic pushed the event entirely online. Drawing on research conducted both on the ground at CES in the years prior to the pandemic as well as recent research of this year’s “all digital” event\, this presentation asks what these dual modes of exhibition suggest about the role of liveness in tech demonstration. This research is in development as part of a book project\, tentatively titled The Theater of Invention: Live Performance in the Tech Industry\, which explores tech expos and conventions as ritual practices dedicated to legitimizing the industrial imagination of emerging technology.\n\nSarah Murray: Fashioning Intelligent Bodies: Mid-Century Smart Working Women and Wearability Before the Wearable\n\nQuick\, what do Winnie the Welder\, Hildy Johnson\, and Claire McCardell have in common? This mix of fictional and real figures represent some of the well-dressed women anchoring the U.S. workforce in the early 20th century. In a period shaped by wartime progress\, deep nationalism\, and technological development\, the definition of a fashionable body changed to accommodate anxieties around white working women\, class\, and new industrial standards. It is not uncommon to trace the history of artificial intelligence to midcentury war efforts in code-breaking\, cybernetics\, military computing\, and early machine learning. This talk offers a different prelude to ordinary A.I.\, one at the convergence of fashion\, women\, and work. What does smart mean before it becomes associated with machine intelligence and contemporary consumer tech? What was the idea of intelligence before ‘thinking machines’ were introduced to the public and became a preoccupation of science\, industry\, and government? The answers are threaded\, quite literally\, through the design of clothes for work. Widespread connotations associated smart with neat\, efficient bodies connected to work outside the home\, skill with new machinery\, and sensible\, store-bought styles. Long before the wearable\, an emergent wearability established the properly outfitted worker as a safe site for the union of technology\, gender\, and labor and signaled a re-coordination of bodies to accommodate shifting meanings of intelligence.

Early Islamic World 3: Monsters and Humans in Medieval Persian Epic DESCRIPTION:How to Tame a Dragon: Monstrous Bodies and the Ontology of Evil in the Poems of Īrānshāh ibn Abi'l-khayr\n\nWhether externally manifested by demons\, or internalized as the human flaws of greed\, hatred\, and hubris\, the nature of evil is a driving question in Iranian mythology and epic\, particularly in Firdawsī's famous Shāh-nāma (w. 1010). In dialogue with that work\, I will take up the far less well-known example of Īrānshāh b. Abi'l-khayr (fl. ca. 1100)\, who composed two epics set in the world of the Shāh-nāma that questions the ontology of evil through its treatment of human and monstrous bodies. The Bahman-nāma begins with a prince's desire to avenge the death of his father\, an ostensibly admirable goal that soon devolves into an obsessive quest to eradicate every trace of Rustam's semi-demonic family from the earth. The (anti-)hero of the Kōsh-nāma\, in contrast\, is a hideous demon who commits unspeakable acts for thousands of lines\, only to turn over a new leaf at the end of the poem. By following the transformation of these two protagonists\, Īrānshāh offers two portraits of evil that complicate questions raised by Firdawsī: what is the line that separates hero and monster? Can evil deeds ever be redeemed\, and is the fight against evil necessarily good?

Damage to the auditory end organ\, the cochlea\, can result in hearing loss that drives the central auditory system to disarray causing disorders such as hyperacusis and tinnitus. These disorders can negatively affect patients’ quality of life. Tinnitus sufferers generally describe their tinnitus as a narrowband of sound that occurs in quiet\, while hyperacusis sufferers express an exaggerated perception of sound level or intensity. These two disorders are often grouped together because tinnitus sufferers tend to report symptoms of hyperacusis and vice versa. However\, hyperacusis and tinnitus do not always co-occur\, suggesting that they have different neural origins. To study these conditions\, researchers have induced cochlear damage in animal models\, followed by behavioral and electrophysiological assessments. However\, no study has adequately distinguished hyperacusis from tinnitus in individual animals. In this thesis\, I detail the development of a novel hyperacusis and tinnitus assessment paradigm for individual animals using the pinna reflex combined with auditory brainstem responses (ABR). In the first chapter\, I detail several enhancements to a computer system that ensures accurate sound presentation concurrently with capture of pinna reflex video data\, as well as streamlines the subsequent data analysis. In the second chapter\, the ABR\, an evoked potential reflecting the summed electrical activity of cells in the auditory brainstem pathway\, was assessed. Several studies suggest that ABR-wave characteristics might provide evidence of hyperacusis. ABRs were evoked using conventional and novel sound stimuli. They were then examined to look for possible indications of hyperacusis in noise overexposed guinea pigs. The present findings are discussed with several suggestions for future hyperacusis assessments.\n\n \n\nDate: Friday\, April 16\, 2021\n\nTime: 12:00 PM\n\nZoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/91698183229\n\nChair: Dr. Susan Shore UID:83558-21424731@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/83558 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Basic Science,Biointerfaces,Biology,biomedical,biomedical engineering,Bioninterfaces,Biosciences,Biotechnology,bme,engineer,engineering,Life Science,Medicine,Michigan Engineering,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210413T105655 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210416T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210416T130000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CSEAS Lecture Series. Stemming the Nationalist Tide: Imperial Control and the Protection of Traditional Islam in British Malaya DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\; register at http://bit.ly/38V5uGZ\n\nWhile early nationalist movements led by modernist Muslims were brewing on the coasts of the Malay Peninsula in the early decades of the twentieth century\, a competing project – sponsored by the British colonial administration – was underway inland in the Malay states. In the Malay states\, the authority of traditional rulers was enhanced through the systematic protection and regulation of Islam and Muslim subjects. Uncovering administrative reports from the colonial archives\, I show that there was unprecedented surveillance over two classes of religious activities: conversions into and out of Islam\, and the publication and sale of religious materials\, both of which served to strengthen and protect traditional authority. With these materials\, I explore a hitherto under examined yet concerted imperial project of state-led traditional religious nationalism devised to stem the tide of modernist Muslim and anti-colonial movements in British Malaya.\n \nHanisah Binte Abdullah Sani is a comparative-historical and political sociologist of empire and state-formation\, modernization and development.

The media reaction was swift: different media companies variably called the besiegers insurrectionists\, a mob\, rioters\, citizens\, and patriots. The events of January 6 call us to consider how language\, media\, and law interact to (de)legitimize assemblies of people. It also raises urgent questions about how responses to assemblies are raced\, classed\, gendered\, and always already political. This graduate student roundtable will consider how language\, media\, and the law interact to channel responses to human assemblies across three different contexts: the English Reformation\, eighteenth-century London\, and Washington\, DC\, in the 1990s.\n\nPanelists: \n\nTaylor Sims\, PhD Candidate\, History\, University of Michigan\nKatie Laplant\, PhD Candidate\, History\, University of Michigan\nNicole Navarro\, PhD Candidate\, History\, University of Michigan\nKatherine French (chair)\, J.

Congratulations. But now may be the time for something totally different. That basically describes my 46-year succession of careers: physics professor\, management consultant\, statistical taxation consultant\, bank operations consultant\, engineering information systems manager\, security systems developer\, public health official\, entrepreneur\, and corporate executive. Each transition got easier\, less threatening\, and more rewarding. That seemingly divergent list of positions grew directly out of my physics graduate school experience. Physics is everywhere and a Michigan Ph.D. in physics will open many doors you did not know were there. But you may have a lot of post-doctoral learning to do.

However\, the work that museums and tribes complete together can also be used as an opportunity to create good and lasting relationships that extend beyond NAGPRA.\n\nHow can museum best practices and traditional tribal knowledge work together in mutually beneficial ways? How can transparency and mutual respect forge productive relationships between tribes and museums? How can future collaborations emerge as a result of the personal and professional relationships that are developed?\n\nThe panelists will provide a basic overview of NAGPRA compliance through a consideration of both the tribal and museum sides of the process. They will also draw from practical experience to show how indigenous knowledge and teachings can help inform and improve professional methods of care and an understanding of the best practices of museums.\n\nSponsors:\nUM College of Literature\, Sciences\, and the Arts\nUM Office of Government Relations\nUM Office of Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion\nUM Office of Research \nUM Museum of Anthropological Archaeology\nUM Museum Studies Program\nUM Department of American Culture\nUM Native American Studies Program \nNative American and Indigenous Studies Interdisciplinary Group UID:83684-21454206@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/83684 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:american culture,Anthropology,Archaeology,cultural,Culture,Department Of American Culture,discussion,Diversity,Diversity Equity and Inclusion,Government,Humanities,Inclusion,Interdisciplinary,multicultural,Museum,native american,Native American Studies,Research LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210127T122846 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210416T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210416T140000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Phondi Discussion Group DESCRIPTION:Phondi is a discussion and research group for students and faculty at U-M and nearby universities who have interests in phonetics and phonology.

Ajami DESCRIPTION:The water sector is at a crossroad. Facing the challenges of ageing infrastructure and a growing population\, the sector has to replace and rebuild its existing network\, which had enabled our nation’s social and economic growth during the past century. In the meantime\, climate change and its impacts on the water cycle have demonstrated the shortcomings and vulnerabilities of our current infrastructure network and its inability to handle extreme and intensified climatic patterns such as floods\, droughts\, hurricane and wildfires. The need to revisit and reimagine our current infrastructure model is clear\, but the path not as much.\n\nThe sector can continue to invest in its current infrastructure model or alternatively embrace decentralized\, distributed\, and nature-based water solutions. These new infrastructure options hold the promise to increase system flexibility and resilience under climate change while taking the pressure off our existing aging infrastructure networks. However\, implementation of these solutions still suffers from the rigidity and complexity of our current water use systems\, and the fragmented and in some cases outdated governance structures and business model that overlay them.\n\nThere is a need to build a diverse financing portfolio and novel governance tools that harnesses our evolving digital economy and could support the sector’s shifting paradigm as it transitions from centralized model to a 21st century hybrid model\, encompassing both centralized and decentralized solutions. In this seminar\, Ajami will discuss some of these challenges and provide some thoughts on how the sector can take advantage of this once in a century opportunity and aim to transform itself while embracing new solutions and business models.\n\nNewsha K. Ajami directs the Urban Water Policy Program at Stanford Woods Institute for the Environment. A leading expert in sustainable water resource management\, water policy\, and the water-energy-food nexus\, she studies the human and policy dimensions of urban water and hydrologic systems. Dr. Ajami served as a gubernatorial appointee to the Bay Area Regional Water Quality Control Board for two terms and is currently a mayoral appointee to the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission. She has published many highly cited peer-reviewed articles\, and contributed opinion pieces to the New York Times and the Sacramento Bee. Dr. Ajami received her Ph.D. in civil and environmental engineering from the UC\, Irvine\, an M.S. in hydrology and water resources from the University of Arizona.\n\nPanelists:\n\nJon Allan\, Academic and Research Program Officer Sr.\, School for Environment and Sustainability\, University of Michigan\nEric Letsinger\, CEO\, Quantified Ventures\nSanjiv Sinha\, Senior Vice President\, Environmental Consulting & Technology\, Inc.

What were the factors that influenced and shaped the making of his identity? Immediate\, pragmatic\, or deep historical and ideological? In my lecture I will first mention in brief how the markers of Muslim identity underwent change in the early phases of their evolution. I will then consider in some depth the role of the religious ideas in its formation in Mughal India. The discussion will be with special reference to the debates between the two major Sufi orders of the time\, the Chishti and the Naqshbandi-Mujaddidi\, on some religious doctrines\, ‘narrow’\, sectarian or a non-sectarian and ‘pluralistic’. I will also consider some examples from the history of post-Mughal religious and political ideas. \n\nThis event is cosponsored by the U-M Global Islamic Studies Center.\n \nMuzaffar Alam is George V. Bobrinskoy Professor of South Asian Languages at the Department of South Asian Languages and Civilizations\, the University of Chicago.

Against the onslaught of US products in the world’s media marketplace\, South Korean cinema has successfully defended itself. In 2001\, South Korea became the first film industry in recent history to reclaim its domestic market from Hollywood. In 2006\, local films had a 67 percent market share—the highest such figure in the world except for the US and India—and they have continued to maintain a market share of around 50 percent in the 2010s (52 percent in 2019). Admissions per capita in 2019 also reached 4.37\, up from 1.1 in 1998 and 2.92 in 2010\, the highest around the globe\, when it was 3.5 in the U.S. The number of screens in Korea has soared\, from 511 in 1997 to 3\,079 in 2019. Based on the increasing numbers of moviegoers and domestic films produced\, South Korea has become one of the world’s major film markets (ranked 5th in 2020). Adding to this success\, the high-quality South Korean local product has flowed outward to global film markets to connect with international audiences in commercial cinemas\, in art theaters\, and at major international film festivals. Park Chan-wook’s Oldboy (2003) received the Grand Prix at the Cannes International Film Festival. Hong Sang-soo had great success in Cannes\, Berlin\, and Locarno with Hahaha (2010)\, Right Now\, Wrong Then (2015)\, and On the Beach at Night Alone (2017). Other breakthrough auteurs\, art-house and genre-bending specialists alike\, followed: Lee Chang-dong\, Im Sang-soo\, Kim Jee-woon\, Ryoo Seung-wan and Kim Ki-duk. Bong Joon-ho’s Parasite marked the culmination of South Korean cinema’s global success. Parasite became the first foreign-language film to win Best Picture at the Oscars (2020)\, and swept other major awards including Best Director\, Screenplay\, and International Feature.\n\nIn English-language academic circles\, likewise\, interest in South Korean cinema as a serious scholarly subject has been growing exponentially. The evolution of South Korean cinema scholarship has been noteworthy. Such scholars as Isolde Standish\, David James\, Rob Wilson\, Kyung Hyun Kim\, Soyoung Kim\, Paul Willemen\, and Kathleen McHugh initially ignited the field of South Korean cinema studies and\, almost simultaneously\, two monographs followed in the UK and US: Hyangjin Lee’s Contemporary Korean Cinema: Culture\, Identity and Politics (2000) and Kyung Hyun Kim’s The Remasculinization of Korean Cinema (2004). Since then\, the field has witnessed a blossoming of South Korean cinema studies in the form of monographs\, edited volumes\, and special issues. Although the field has recently greeted many significant scholarly achievements that have extensively discussed South Korea’s cinematic legacies\, it is still difficult to find scholarly articles on pre-1990s South Korean films – and almost none are available on films from the 1970s and 80s. There is also a shortage of articles on individual films and directors\, and no systematically structured book-length study on the South Korean film industry has been published as of the time this conference is being prepared.\n\nThe South Korean Film Industry conference will bring together scholars from major sites of Korean film and media Studies research in the Anglophone world (including Canada\, U.S.\, U.K.\, and Australia) with scholars from Korea and Singapore for an interdisciplinary dialogue on the diversity and complexity of the South Korean film industry. This conference aims to showcase innovative scholarly work examining wide-ranging coverage of subjects such as the production\, exhibition and distribution of South Korean cinema\, state policy and censorship\, coproduction\, film festivals and cinephilia\, independent cinema\, and Hallyu and the global reception of South Korean cinema. \n\nFull conference details and schedule available at:\nhttps://myumi.ch/1p0b3\n\nFriday\, April 16\n\n8:00-9:30pm Director Spotlight: KIM Bora (Director: House of Hummingbird)\n\nWith Maggie Lee (Film Critic)\n\nModerator: Ungsan KIM (University of Michigan)\n\nFilm Screening: House of Hummingbird (2019) will be available for download from April 12-16. Additional details will be provided to all conference registrants.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at ncks.info@umich.edu.

Lonely\, reserved\, and stuck in a dysfunctional household among her frequently quarrelling parents (Seung-Yeon Lee and In-gi Jeong)\, her troublemaking sister Su-hee (Su-yeon Park)\, and bully of a brother Dae-hoon (Sang-yeon Sohn)\, eighth-grader Eun-hee seems to move through life involuntarily\, like a bird with a pair of broken wings. And yet\, she still copes with routine neglect behind a youthful shield of resilience — Kim slowly lays bare Eun-hee’s toughened spirit from a minimalist and acutely feminine perspective.” –Tomris Laffly\, Variety\n\nKorean Cinema NOW 2021 will be presented through a virtual format.
