No pre-registration required. .\n \nOver the past three years\, COVID-19 has taken the lives of more than one million Americans. Nearly one-fifth of us knew someone among them. All of us have been impacted. In a culture that avoids talk of death and puts grief on a timeline\, what does our mourning look like? How will we manage the voids the pandemic has created? \n \nCurrently in production\, Afterthought: Remembering a Pandemic is a documentary feature about COVID memorials and the people who build them. It centers on two projects: a community memorial in Detroit involving thousands of participants\, and one artist’s personal memorial in New York commemorating the loss of a friend. In documenting these stories\, Afterthought memorializes individuals lost and communities changed by the pandemic and asks universal questions about shared trauma\, memory\, and healing.   Join the filmmakers for a free screening of clips from the film-in-progress\, followed by conversation.\n\nHosted by UMMA and co-sponsored by Arts Initiative\, UMMA\, American Culture\, Latina/o Studies & the Museum Studies Program. \n\nThe Arts & Resistance Theme Semester\, organized by UMMA and the U-M Arts Initiative\, is generously supported by the U-M Office of the Provost\, the U-M College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\, Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, and Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick.

It centers on the titular “manga map”\, a rare Japanese travel map of Japan (ca. 1934) that is densely packed with manga illustrations detailing local folklore\, history\, architecture\, flora/fauna\, and more. The exhibit also includes works of Japanese art and cartography in order to consider the dichotomy between artistry and geographic depiction\, and how that plays with the definition of a “map.”\n\nAlongside the exhibit\, the manga map is also part of a new digital humanities preservation project at the library using the online crowd-sourcing platform Zooniverse\, where the map will be transcribed/translated and made into a fully interactive digital map. More information is available at the exhibit.\n\nBoth the exhibit and the Zooniverse project were created as a summer internship capstone project by Joel Liesenberg\, a dual-degree master’s student in International and Regional Studies focusing in Japanese studies and the School of Information focusing in digital curation.

Death threats and assassinations\, politically motivated sectarian violence\, rampant corruption\, and de-Ba’athification policies only further destabilized an educational system already heaving under the devastation of wars\, authoritarian regimes\, and harsh economic sanctions.\n\nThis exhibit invites solidarity with the academics targeted\, but also deeper connection with their experiences and the richness of Iraqi academic life through their written legacies and the testimonies of surviving academics\, many of whom were driven into exile.\n\nThis exhibit in the north lobby is available during Hatcher Library hours (https://myumi.ch/p75dd).\n\nA companion online exhibit\, Tracing Iraqi Artists: From Shadow to Light (https://myumi.ch/n7xre)\, explores modern Iraqi struggle and resistance through contemporary visual art and connection to Iraqi artists and educators. The curators of the online exhibit\, 2023 Michigan Library Scholars Zainab Hakim and Serena Safawi\, hope to center surviving Iraqi artists as they explore their national and artistic identities and respond to the cycles of violence caused by the Iran-Iraq war\, sanctions\, and occupation.

In the years immediately preceding the dam’s construction\, the American University in Cairo directed a large-scale project of salvage anthropology with funding from the Ford Foundation. \n\nThis endeavor yielded hundreds of photographs of al-nuba al-qadima or “Old Nubia” the term affectionately used by community members. Over the past sixty years\, Nubians have used these images to cultivate a collective memory of a lost homeland. From Aswan to Alexandria and beyond\, community members are salvaging their own stories from this anthropological archive\, reshaping it as a sentimental terrain of solidarity across time\, space\, and circumstance. \n\nThis selection of photographs includes persons\, places\, and practices as well as glimpses of the presence of the photographer and researchers. Both online and offline\, Egyptian Nubians continue to share and re-mediate these photos as they recall their historical displacement and revitalize their heritage for future generations.\n\nThe exhibit is curated by Yasmin Moll\, assistant professor of anthropology\, and coordinated by Nesrien Hamid\, doctoral student in anthropology\, with funding from the University of Michigan's Humanities Collaboratory.\n\nFor a deeper dive\, visit the companion exhibit\, Narrating Nubia\, at the Duderstadt Center on North Campus. It delves into the archaeological\, anthropological\, and community narratives of both ancient and modern-day Nubia spanning Egypt and Sudan.

Throughout the European Renaissance (1300-1700)\, many book illustrations were exclusively ornamental\, while others focused on enhancing the meaning of the text. However\, as the pages on display attest\, all these illustrations share a common ground: they reveal the aesthetic and intellectual fashions first proposed by Italian artists of the 1400s\, who were strongly committed to the recovery of the past of classical antiquity.\n\nThe word “Illumination\,” from the Latin illuminare\, “to enlighten or to illuminate\,” refers to the embellishment of a manuscript or early printed book with luminous colors\, notably gold and silver. This illumination was prominent in the frontispiece\, or first page of text\, which included the decoration of its borders and initial letter\, and even miniatures\, that is\, scenes with an independent narrative. With the introduction of movable-type printing in 1454\, these illuminations would be gradually replaced by woodcuts\, which were printed from a woodblock that had been cut by knife along the grain of the wood.\n\nAvailable during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://myumi.ch/2m7d4).\n\nJoin us on September 13 for a talk by Pablo Alvarez\, curator of the exhibit.

Located in the former Homestake gold mine in Lead\, South Dakota\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) houses experiments that give us a better understanding of the universe. The location—deep underground—provides a near-perfect environment for experiments that need to escape the constant bombardment of cosmic radiation\, which can interfere with the detection of rare physics events. Built in collaboration with the University of Michigan\, the LUX-Zeplin is the world’s most sensitive dark matter experiment. SURF also hosts experiments in biology\, geology and engineering.\n\nGina Gibson is an internationally exhibiting artist and professor of Graphic Design at Black Hills State University. In 2019\, Gibson became the first artist in residence at the Sanford Underground Research Facility. Gibson's work celebrates the search deep below the surface for beauty in the old and new\, the light and dark\, and the known and unknown.\n\nUN/EARTH was developed in collaboration with the U-M Department of Physics\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility and Black Hills State University.

In the realm of biological macromolecules such as proteins and nucleic acids\, form determines function\, so visualizing the three-dimensional structures of molecules is key in researching the ‘tiny’ macromolecules that perform vital functions in our cells. In Biophysics 421\, under the guidance of Markos Koutmos\, Assistant Professor of Biophysics & Chemistry\, and Liz Tidwell\, PhD candidate in Biophysics\, students created models with digital modeling software and brought them to life via 3D printing. This exhibit showcases the 3D printed molecules\, scaled up to better reveal the structures that inform\, make\, break\, modify\, and move within the body.

The watercolors\, rarely seen plein air paintings\, are on loan from the Texas Archaeological Research Laboratory at the University of Texas\, and document the original forms and vibrant colors of murals that were still visible in the 1930s before flooding\, erosion\, and human interaction damaged or destroyed them. This exhibition has been shown in various iterations at Ballroom Marfa\, the University of Texas at Austin\, the Rubin Center for the Visual Arts\, the Museum of Modern Art in New York and University of California\, Santa Barbara\, and will be shown in Michigan and the midwest for the first time. The Blessings of the Mystery brings together an expansive body of work that sheds light on vital histories\, living memories and Indigenous knowledge-systems embedded within the land well before the colonial boundaries between Mexico and the US were established - advocating for environmental justice and recognition of Indigenous rights and cosmologies.

When COVID took Tina’s life\, Taylor started ordering identical versions of their childhood games and toys on eBay. As she assembled these objects\, Taylor recalled a memory of climbing with Tina through the skeletal frameworks of unfinished houses in the 1970s. Late at night\, the girls would pick their way through floorless rooms and speculate about their future inhabitants. In this spirit of imaginative experimentation\, Taylor began taking apart her eBay acquisitions. Gathering\, breaking\, sawing\, splicing\, painting\, gluing\, layering\, and reassembling these toys became\, for her\, a way to probe the complicated nature of a lost friendship and to explore the multidimensional nature of grief. Ultimately\, Taylor built the framework of an unfinished house to evoke those she once explored with Tina. Taylor describes the house as a “container for grief.” \n\nSeptember 28 - October 27 \nOpening & Reception: September 28\, 1-3pm \nGalleryDAAS \n\nAbout this series of events: \nArt & Resistance Fall 2023 Theme Semester Programming \nSponsored by Arts Initiative\, UMMA\, American Culture\, Latina/o Studies\, the Department of Film\, Television and Media & the Museum Studies Program \nPresented by Charlotte Juergens\, 2nd year Ph.D. student in American Culture \nhttp://bit.ly/UMafterthought UID:112261-21828698@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/112261 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:american culture,Art,arts,arts at michigan,Arts Initiative,Culture,Department Of American Culture,Exhibition,Film,food,Free,Graduate,In Person,Latina/o Studies,Media,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Haven Hall - galleryDAAS CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231010T092546 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231014T133000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231014T141500 SUMMARY:Presentation:Tales of the Maya Skies DESCRIPTION:Tales of the Maya Skies immerses viewers in the wonders of Maya science\, cosmology and myth.

It's a sound rooted in pop hooks\, alt-rock guitars\, and the sharp songwriting of frontman Brian Vander Ark. A sound that's taken the band from the golden days of late-'90s modern rock—when The Verve Pipe enjoyed multi-platinum success with hits like \"Photograph\" and the chart-topping \"The Freshmen\"—to the rule-breaking creativity of the 2010s and beyond\, an era that's found the band reinventing itself with each release. Throughout it all\, The Verve Pipe has released critically-acclaimed music as both a major-label act and an independent band\, maintaining a commitment to forward-thinking rock & roll with albums like 2021's Threads.\n\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4233/4234 for more detail.

It centers on two projects: a community memorial in Detroit involving thousands of participants\, and one artist’s personal memorial in New York commemorating the loss of a friend. In documenting these stories\, Afterthought memorializes individuals lost and communities changed by the pandemic and asks universal questions about shared trauma\, memory\, and healing.   Join the filmmakers for a free screening of clips from the film-in-progress\, followed by conversation.\n\nHosted by UMMA and co-sponsored by Arts Initiative\, UMMA\, American Culture\, Latina/o Studies & the Museum Studies Program. \n\nThe Arts & Resistance Theme Semester\, organized by UMMA and the U-M Arts Initiative\, is generously supported by the U-M Office of the Provost\, the U-M College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\, Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, and Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick.

It centers on the titular “manga map”\, a rare Japanese travel map of Japan (ca. 1934) that is densely packed with manga illustrations detailing local folklore\, history\, architecture\, flora/fauna\, and more. The exhibit also includes works of Japanese art and cartography in order to consider the dichotomy between artistry and geographic depiction\, and how that plays with the definition of a “map.”\n\nAlongside the exhibit\, the manga map is also part of a new digital humanities preservation project at the library using the online crowd-sourcing platform Zooniverse\, where the map will be transcribed/translated and made into a fully interactive digital map. More information is available at the exhibit.\n\nBoth the exhibit and the Zooniverse project were created as a summer internship capstone project by Joel Liesenberg\, a dual-degree master’s student in International and Regional Studies focusing in Japanese studies and the School of Information focusing in digital curation.

Death threats and assassinations\, politically motivated sectarian violence\, rampant corruption\, and de-Ba’athification policies only further destabilized an educational system already heaving under the devastation of wars\, authoritarian regimes\, and harsh economic sanctions.\n\nThis exhibit invites solidarity with the academics targeted\, but also deeper connection with their experiences and the richness of Iraqi academic life through their written legacies and the testimonies of surviving academics\, many of whom were driven into exile.\n\nThis exhibit in the north lobby is available during Hatcher Library hours (https://myumi.ch/p75dd).\n\nA companion online exhibit\, Tracing Iraqi Artists: From Shadow to Light (https://myumi.ch/n7xre)\, explores modern Iraqi struggle and resistance through contemporary visual art and connection to Iraqi artists and educators. The curators of the online exhibit\, 2023 Michigan Library Scholars Zainab Hakim and Serena Safawi\, hope to center surviving Iraqi artists as they explore their national and artistic identities and respond to the cycles of violence caused by the Iran-Iraq war\, sanctions\, and occupation.

In the years immediately preceding the dam’s construction\, the American University in Cairo directed a large-scale project of salvage anthropology with funding from the Ford Foundation. \n\nThis endeavor yielded hundreds of photographs of al-nuba al-qadima or “Old Nubia” the term affectionately used by community members. Over the past sixty years\, Nubians have used these images to cultivate a collective memory of a lost homeland. From Aswan to Alexandria and beyond\, community members are salvaging their own stories from this anthropological archive\, reshaping it as a sentimental terrain of solidarity across time\, space\, and circumstance. \n\nThis selection of photographs includes persons\, places\, and practices as well as glimpses of the presence of the photographer and researchers. Both online and offline\, Egyptian Nubians continue to share and re-mediate these photos as they recall their historical displacement and revitalize their heritage for future generations.\n\nThe exhibit is curated by Yasmin Moll\, assistant professor of anthropology\, and coordinated by Nesrien Hamid\, doctoral student in anthropology\, with funding from the University of Michigan's Humanities Collaboratory.\n\nFor a deeper dive\, visit the companion exhibit\, Narrating Nubia\, at the Duderstadt Center on North Campus. It delves into the archaeological\, anthropological\, and community narratives of both ancient and modern-day Nubia spanning Egypt and Sudan.

Throughout the European Renaissance (1300-1700)\, many book illustrations were exclusively ornamental\, while others focused on enhancing the meaning of the text. However\, as the pages on display attest\, all these illustrations share a common ground: they reveal the aesthetic and intellectual fashions first proposed by Italian artists of the 1400s\, who were strongly committed to the recovery of the past of classical antiquity.\n\nThe word “Illumination\,” from the Latin illuminare\, “to enlighten or to illuminate\,” refers to the embellishment of a manuscript or early printed book with luminous colors\, notably gold and silver. This illumination was prominent in the frontispiece\, or first page of text\, which included the decoration of its borders and initial letter\, and even miniatures\, that is\, scenes with an independent narrative. With the introduction of movable-type printing in 1454\, these illuminations would be gradually replaced by woodcuts\, which were printed from a woodblock that had been cut by knife along the grain of the wood.\n\nAvailable during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://myumi.ch/2m7d4).\n\nJoin us on September 13 for a talk by Pablo Alvarez\, curator of the exhibit.

Located in the former Homestake gold mine in Lead\, South Dakota\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) houses experiments that give us a better understanding of the universe. The location—deep underground—provides a near-perfect environment for experiments that need to escape the constant bombardment of cosmic radiation\, which can interfere with the detection of rare physics events. Built in collaboration with the University of Michigan\, the LUX-Zeplin is the world’s most sensitive dark matter experiment. SURF also hosts experiments in biology\, geology and engineering.\n\nGina Gibson is an internationally exhibiting artist and professor of Graphic Design at Black Hills State University. In 2019\, Gibson became the first artist in residence at the Sanford Underground Research Facility. Gibson's work celebrates the search deep below the surface for beauty in the old and new\, the light and dark\, and the known and unknown.\n\nUN/EARTH was developed in collaboration with the U-M Department of Physics\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility and Black Hills State University.

When COVID took Tina’s life\, Taylor started ordering identical versions of their childhood games and toys on eBay. As she assembled these objects\, Taylor recalled a memory of climbing with Tina through the skeletal frameworks of unfinished houses in the 1970s. Late at night\, the girls would pick their way through floorless rooms and speculate about their future inhabitants. In this spirit of imaginative experimentation\, Taylor began taking apart her eBay acquisitions. Gathering\, breaking\, sawing\, splicing\, painting\, gluing\, layering\, and reassembling these toys became\, for her\, a way to probe the complicated nature of a lost friendship and to explore the multidimensional nature of grief. Ultimately\, Taylor built the framework of an unfinished house to evoke those she once explored with Tina. Taylor describes the house as a “container for grief.” \n\nSeptember 28 - October 27 \nOpening & Reception: September 28\, 1-3pm \nGalleryDAAS \n\nAbout this series of events: \nArt & Resistance Fall 2023 Theme Semester Programming \nSponsored by Arts Initiative\, UMMA\, American Culture\, Latina/o Studies\, the Department of Film\, Television and Media & the Museum Studies Program \nPresented by Charlotte Juergens\, 2nd year Ph.D. student in American Culture \nhttp://bit.ly/UMafterthought UID:112261-21828699@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/112261 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:american culture,Art,arts,arts at michigan,Arts Initiative,Culture,Department Of American Culture,Exhibition,Film,food,Free,Graduate,In Person,Latina/o Studies,Media,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Haven Hall - galleryDAAS CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231015T181617 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231015T130000 SUMMARY:Sporting Event:Field Hockey vs Penn State DESCRIPTION:Field Hockey vs Penn State UID:109845-21823092@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/109845 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Athletics,Athletics - Field Hockey LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230927T141622 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231015T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231015T210000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Unexpected Gifts: A Convening on Jewish Education in Honor of Harlene Appelman DESCRIPTION:Please join the Jewish Communal Leadership Program\, the Covenant Foundation\, and the Frankel Center for Judaic Studies for a convening on Jewish education to honor the memory of master Jewish educator and long-term executive director of the Covenant Foundation\, Harlene Winnick Appelman.\"\n\nThis gathering will take place on Sunday\, October 15\, 2023\, from 1 p.m. to 9 p.m.\, at the University of Michigan School of Social Work and Michigan Hillel in Ann Arbor\, Michigan\, where Harlene made her home.

Frank Loesser's brassy\, immortal score – featuring “Adelaide’s Lament” and the classic “Luck Be a Lady” – makes *Guys and Dolls* a true crowd pleaser. \n\nGambler Nathan Detroit tries to find the cash to set up the biggest craps game in town while the authorities breathe down his neck\; meanwhile\, his girlfriend\, nightclub performer Adelaide\, laments that they've been engaged for fourteen years. Nathan hatches a plan to get the dough from a bet with fellow gambler Sky Masterson\, and Sky ends up chasing the straight-laced missionary\, Sarah Brown\, as a result. *Guys and Dolls* takes us from the heart of Times Square to the cafes of Havana and even into the sewers of New York City\, but eventually everyone ends up right where they belong. \n\nMusic & lyrics by Frank Loesser\nBook by Abe Burrows & Jo Swerling\nBased on a story and characters by Damon Runyon\nDirected by Vincent J. Cardinal\nMusic direction by Jason DeBord\n\nFUN FACTS: Considered by many to be the perfect musical comedy\, *Guys and Dolls* ran for 1\,200 performances after it opened on Broadway in 1950. It received nearly unanimous positive reviews from critics and won a bevy of awards\, including Tony Awards\, Drama Desks\, and Oliviers.

His music is poetry in motion\, using harmonics\, looping\, multiple capos\, and his unique banter and stage presence to deliver an unforgettable live concert experience. Listening to his intricate arrangements is one thing\, but seeing the fan-dubbed \"Acoustic Ninja\" play live confounds even the most accomplished music lovers as to how one person can do all that with just two hands and ten fingers. Trace has played about 30 countries and counting—from high-tech performance halls in South Korea and Italy\, to remote villages in Zimbabwe and Guatemala. In the hands of Trace Bundy\, says Guitar Player\, \"the acoustic guitar is an imagination station\, and there was no telling where he is going to take the audience at any given turn. Thrilling stuff.\"\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4253/4254 for more detail.

It centers on the titular “manga map”\, a rare Japanese travel map of Japan (ca. 1934) that is densely packed with manga illustrations detailing local folklore\, history\, architecture\, flora/fauna\, and more. The exhibit also includes works of Japanese art and cartography in order to consider the dichotomy between artistry and geographic depiction\, and how that plays with the definition of a “map.”\n\nAlongside the exhibit\, the manga map is also part of a new digital humanities preservation project at the library using the online crowd-sourcing platform Zooniverse\, where the map will be transcribed/translated and made into a fully interactive digital map. More information is available at the exhibit.\n\nBoth the exhibit and the Zooniverse project were created as a summer internship capstone project by Joel Liesenberg\, a dual-degree master’s student in International and Regional Studies focusing in Japanese studies and the School of Information focusing in digital curation.

Death threats and assassinations\, politically motivated sectarian violence\, rampant corruption\, and de-Ba’athification policies only further destabilized an educational system already heaving under the devastation of wars\, authoritarian regimes\, and harsh economic sanctions.\n\nThis exhibit invites solidarity with the academics targeted\, but also deeper connection with their experiences and the richness of Iraqi academic life through their written legacies and the testimonies of surviving academics\, many of whom were driven into exile.\n\nThis exhibit in the north lobby is available during Hatcher Library hours (https://myumi.ch/p75dd).\n\nA companion online exhibit\, Tracing Iraqi Artists: From Shadow to Light (https://myumi.ch/n7xre)\, explores modern Iraqi struggle and resistance through contemporary visual art and connection to Iraqi artists and educators. The curators of the online exhibit\, 2023 Michigan Library Scholars Zainab Hakim and Serena Safawi\, hope to center surviving Iraqi artists as they explore their national and artistic identities and respond to the cycles of violence caused by the Iran-Iraq war\, sanctions\, and occupation.

In the years immediately preceding the dam’s construction\, the American University in Cairo directed a large-scale project of salvage anthropology with funding from the Ford Foundation. \n\nThis endeavor yielded hundreds of photographs of al-nuba al-qadima or “Old Nubia” the term affectionately used by community members. Over the past sixty years\, Nubians have used these images to cultivate a collective memory of a lost homeland. From Aswan to Alexandria and beyond\, community members are salvaging their own stories from this anthropological archive\, reshaping it as a sentimental terrain of solidarity across time\, space\, and circumstance. \n\nThis selection of photographs includes persons\, places\, and practices as well as glimpses of the presence of the photographer and researchers. Both online and offline\, Egyptian Nubians continue to share and re-mediate these photos as they recall their historical displacement and revitalize their heritage for future generations.\n\nThe exhibit is curated by Yasmin Moll\, assistant professor of anthropology\, and coordinated by Nesrien Hamid\, doctoral student in anthropology\, with funding from the University of Michigan's Humanities Collaboratory.\n\nFor a deeper dive\, visit the companion exhibit\, Narrating Nubia\, at the Duderstadt Center on North Campus. It delves into the archaeological\, anthropological\, and community narratives of both ancient and modern-day Nubia spanning Egypt and Sudan.

Guardian Passage: The Power of Ukrainian Cultural Memory in the Face of War DESCRIPTION:*Presented in association with UMS*.\n\nIn Guardian Passage\, artists Irina Bondarenko and Katya Lisova employ the tools and imagery of traditional Ukrainian art forms to face down the existential threat brought about by Russia’s war on Ukraine. Bondarenko’s installation forms a causeway for visitors to encounter Ukrainian poetry and the art form of motanka dolls in a newly imagined configuration. Motanka are guardian symbols assembled from the clothes of deceased ancestors. Bondarenko’s ceramics illustrate motanka in situations responding to the war\; each graphic is accompanied by a poem or a song. These ceramics act as lifeboats\, which ferry the Ukrainian resistance through the flood waters of destruction. Lisova’s series of tapestries explore the power of cultural memory to grow in times of war. Traditional embroidery explodes on the surface of photo collage\, where images of the past and present collide on a single surface. Like a lifeline\, red thread connects these projects\, weaving through clay and fabric\, bringing tradition to bear on new significances and the cultural will to survive. This exhibition is part of the LSA theme semester on “Arts and Resistance.”\n\nIrina Bondarenko is an emerging ceramic artist\, a native of Ukraine\, and a biostatistician at the University of Michigan. Irina has been with the University of Michigan Biostatistics Department for more than 20 years. and published over 50 peer-reviewed articles. Along with her career at the School of Public Health\, for the last 10 years Irina has been pursuing her interest in ceramics. Her work was featured in over a dozen national shows\, the 24th San Angelo National Ceramic Competition\, and the “Strictly Functional Pottery National Show” in 2021 and 2022\, and\, most recently\, the Regional Biennial Juried Sculpture Exhibition at Marshall Fredericks Sculpture Museum.\n\nArtist website: https://www.ibondceramics.com/\n\nKatya Lisova is an artist\, designer\, and art historian.

Throughout the European Renaissance (1300-1700)\, many book illustrations were exclusively ornamental\, while others focused on enhancing the meaning of the text. However\, as the pages on display attest\, all these illustrations share a common ground: they reveal the aesthetic and intellectual fashions first proposed by Italian artists of the 1400s\, who were strongly committed to the recovery of the past of classical antiquity.\n\nThe word “Illumination\,” from the Latin illuminare\, “to enlighten or to illuminate\,” refers to the embellishment of a manuscript or early printed book with luminous colors\, notably gold and silver. This illumination was prominent in the frontispiece\, or first page of text\, which included the decoration of its borders and initial letter\, and even miniatures\, that is\, scenes with an independent narrative. With the introduction of movable-type printing in 1454\, these illuminations would be gradually replaced by woodcuts\, which were printed from a woodblock that had been cut by knife along the grain of the wood.\n\nAvailable during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://myumi.ch/2m7d4).\n\nJoin us on September 13 for a talk by Pablo Alvarez\, curator of the exhibit.

DESCRIPTION:Come explore the intricate and interlocking world of Sarah Buckius’ “!!!techn010ffspring!!!” where feminist art meets science and the history of invention. On view at Lane Hall as part of U-M Arts Initiative’s themed semester on Arts & Resistance\, “!!!techn010ffspring!!!” critiques the patriarchal paradigms of the STEM field by highlighting the history of women inventors. This exhibition brings conceptual invention in fine art and performance to the disciplines of information technology\, robotics\, and engineering. Buckius creates “technoffsprings”: complex machines that weave together the history of inventions related to the gendered labor of women\, especially regarding women’s social roles as caregivers and subjects of care themselves. \nTrained as an engineer and an artist\, Buckius’ machines are intentionally complex\, layered\, and illogical or absurdly logical. In the nature of women’s caregiving\, they teeter between order and chaos. Her “digital tinkerings” tell epic tales of motherhood\, technology\, female bodies\, and commerce—both personal and externalized through women’s inventions and early forays that bridged caregiving and commerce. Buckius' work proposes improvisation as a form of absurdist resistance to\, and alternative to\, patriarchal\, capitalist\, production-based\, and seemingly rational\, useful\, logical systems. \n“!!!techn010ffspring!!!” is open for viewing M-F\, 9am-4pm or by appointment. University of Michigan instructors can email LaneHallExhibits@umich.edu to request a group tour or schedule a class visit.\nThis project was made possible by a grant from the Arts Initiative at the University of Michigan and co-sponsored by U-M’s Department of Women’s and Gender Studies and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender with support from the Santa Cruz County Arts Council.

When COVID took Tina’s life\, Taylor started ordering identical versions of their childhood games and toys on eBay. As she assembled these objects\, Taylor recalled a memory of climbing with Tina through the skeletal frameworks of unfinished houses in the 1970s. Late at night\, the girls would pick their way through floorless rooms and speculate about their future inhabitants. In this spirit of imaginative experimentation\, Taylor began taking apart her eBay acquisitions. Gathering\, breaking\, sawing\, splicing\, painting\, gluing\, layering\, and reassembling these toys became\, for her\, a way to probe the complicated nature of a lost friendship and to explore the multidimensional nature of grief. Ultimately\, Taylor built the framework of an unfinished house to evoke those she once explored with Tina. Taylor describes the house as a “container for grief.” \n\nSeptember 28 - October 27 \nOpening & Reception: September 28\, 1-3pm \nGalleryDAAS \n\nAbout this series of events: \nArt & Resistance Fall 2023 Theme Semester Programming \nSponsored by Arts Initiative\, UMMA\, American Culture\, Latina/o Studies\, the Department of Film\, Television and Media & the Museum Studies Program \nPresented by Charlotte Juergens\, 2nd year Ph.D. student in American Culture \nhttp://bit.ly/UMafterthought UID:112261-21828700@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/112261 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:american culture,Art,arts,arts at michigan,Arts Initiative,Culture,Department Of American Culture,Exhibition,Film,food,Free,Graduate,In Person,Latina/o Studies,Media,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Haven Hall - galleryDAAS CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231009T134446 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231016T133000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231016T160000 SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Michigan Engineering and NSF\, ZEUS Laser Grand Opening Celebration and Symposium DESCRIPTION:The National Science Foundation has funded the construction of the 3-petawatt ZEUS laser facility at the University of Michigan.

Thomas Talhelm will present data showing that northern and southern China have cultural differences that fall along the historical borders of rice and wheat. And since most of East Asia was built on rice farming\, rice could help explain larger East-West cultural differences. In this talk\, he’ll show new data on manspreading around the world. He and his team coded how much space 7\,000 people were taking up in Starbucks in nine countries. He will also build from the cartoonish kindergarten version of the rice theory (rice = collectivism!) to a slightly more realistic undergrad version. The undergrad version of the theory can explain puzzles like why China’s wheat-farming north is still so different from wheat-farming Western Europe and why China’s most fertile farming regions were the last to start farming.\n\nThomas Talhelm is an Associate Professor of Behavioral Science at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business. He researches the agricultural roots of cultural differences and how people (researchers!) get collectivism wrong. Thomas has lived in China for seven years as a Princeton in Asia Fellow\, a freelance journalist\, and a Fulbright scholar. When he should have been writing his dissertation\, he founded a social enterprise called Smart Air\, which makes low-cost\, open-data-backed air purifiers to help people in China and India protect themselves from air pollution.

When the Myanmar army and a Chinese corporate giant force Indigenous Kachin people off their ancestral land to build the massive Myitsone Dam\, Grandmother Lu Ra stands her ground. We see her struggle to save the sacred confluence and build a movement\, mentoring young female law student Hkawn Mai. A Kachin punk rock band made of pastors\, BLAST\, also takes action\, transforming their love songs into protest anthems. Our film follows these individuals through their journey of activism\, from their underground beginnings during Myanmar’s military junta rule\, to supposed “democratic” reforms and a sudden military coup. During such periods of fledgling democracy and dictatorship–in Myanmar and globally–our film asks how ordinary people can use the power of music\, community organizing and women’s leadership to challenge authoritarianism.\n \nThe in-person portion of GETSEA’s simulcast film screening of *Above and Below the Ground *will be held at the University of Hawaii-Manoa\, where Director Emily Hong and Producer Maggie Lemere will hold a discussion following the screening.

It centers on the titular “manga map”\, a rare Japanese travel map of Japan (ca. 1934) that is densely packed with manga illustrations detailing local folklore\, history\, architecture\, flora/fauna\, and more. The exhibit also includes works of Japanese art and cartography in order to consider the dichotomy between artistry and geographic depiction\, and how that plays with the definition of a “map.”\n\nAlongside the exhibit\, the manga map is also part of a new digital humanities preservation project at the library using the online crowd-sourcing platform Zooniverse\, where the map will be transcribed/translated and made into a fully interactive digital map. More information is available at the exhibit.\n\nBoth the exhibit and the Zooniverse project were created as a summer internship capstone project by Joel Liesenberg\, a dual-degree master’s student in International and Regional Studies focusing in Japanese studies and the School of Information focusing in digital curation.

Death threats and assassinations\, politically motivated sectarian violence\, rampant corruption\, and de-Ba’athification policies only further destabilized an educational system already heaving under the devastation of wars\, authoritarian regimes\, and harsh economic sanctions.\n\nThis exhibit invites solidarity with the academics targeted\, but also deeper connection with their experiences and the richness of Iraqi academic life through their written legacies and the testimonies of surviving academics\, many of whom were driven into exile.\n\nThis exhibit in the north lobby is available during Hatcher Library hours (https://myumi.ch/p75dd).\n\nA companion online exhibit\, Tracing Iraqi Artists: From Shadow to Light (https://myumi.ch/n7xre)\, explores modern Iraqi struggle and resistance through contemporary visual art and connection to Iraqi artists and educators. The curators of the online exhibit\, 2023 Michigan Library Scholars Zainab Hakim and Serena Safawi\, hope to center surviving Iraqi artists as they explore their national and artistic identities and respond to the cycles of violence caused by the Iran-Iraq war\, sanctions\, and occupation.

In the years immediately preceding the dam’s construction\, the American University in Cairo directed a large-scale project of salvage anthropology with funding from the Ford Foundation. \n\nThis endeavor yielded hundreds of photographs of al-nuba al-qadima or “Old Nubia” the term affectionately used by community members. Over the past sixty years\, Nubians have used these images to cultivate a collective memory of a lost homeland. From Aswan to Alexandria and beyond\, community members are salvaging their own stories from this anthropological archive\, reshaping it as a sentimental terrain of solidarity across time\, space\, and circumstance. \n\nThis selection of photographs includes persons\, places\, and practices as well as glimpses of the presence of the photographer and researchers. Both online and offline\, Egyptian Nubians continue to share and re-mediate these photos as they recall their historical displacement and revitalize their heritage for future generations.\n\nThe exhibit is curated by Yasmin Moll\, assistant professor of anthropology\, and coordinated by Nesrien Hamid\, doctoral student in anthropology\, with funding from the University of Michigan's Humanities Collaboratory.\n\nFor a deeper dive\, visit the companion exhibit\, Narrating Nubia\, at the Duderstadt Center on North Campus. It delves into the archaeological\, anthropological\, and community narratives of both ancient and modern-day Nubia spanning Egypt and Sudan.

Guardian Passage: The Power of Ukrainian Cultural Memory in the Face of War DESCRIPTION:*Presented in association with UMS*.\n\nIn Guardian Passage\, artists Irina Bondarenko and Katya Lisova employ the tools and imagery of traditional Ukrainian art forms to face down the existential threat brought about by Russia’s war on Ukraine. Bondarenko’s installation forms a causeway for visitors to encounter Ukrainian poetry and the art form of motanka dolls in a newly imagined configuration. Motanka are guardian symbols assembled from the clothes of deceased ancestors. Bondarenko’s ceramics illustrate motanka in situations responding to the war\; each graphic is accompanied by a poem or a song. These ceramics act as lifeboats\, which ferry the Ukrainian resistance through the flood waters of destruction. Lisova’s series of tapestries explore the power of cultural memory to grow in times of war. Traditional embroidery explodes on the surface of photo collage\, where images of the past and present collide on a single surface. Like a lifeline\, red thread connects these projects\, weaving through clay and fabric\, bringing tradition to bear on new significances and the cultural will to survive. This exhibition is part of the LSA theme semester on “Arts and Resistance.”\n\nIrina Bondarenko is an emerging ceramic artist\, a native of Ukraine\, and a biostatistician at the University of Michigan. Irina has been with the University of Michigan Biostatistics Department for more than 20 years. and published over 50 peer-reviewed articles. Along with her career at the School of Public Health\, for the last 10 years Irina has been pursuing her interest in ceramics. Her work was featured in over a dozen national shows\, the 24th San Angelo National Ceramic Competition\, and the “Strictly Functional Pottery National Show” in 2021 and 2022\, and\, most recently\, the Regional Biennial Juried Sculpture Exhibition at Marshall Fredericks Sculpture Museum.\n\nArtist website: https://www.ibondceramics.com/\n\nKatya Lisova is an artist\, designer\, and art historian.

Throughout the European Renaissance (1300-1700)\, many book illustrations were exclusively ornamental\, while others focused on enhancing the meaning of the text. However\, as the pages on display attest\, all these illustrations share a common ground: they reveal the aesthetic and intellectual fashions first proposed by Italian artists of the 1400s\, who were strongly committed to the recovery of the past of classical antiquity.\n\nThe word “Illumination\,” from the Latin illuminare\, “to enlighten or to illuminate\,” refers to the embellishment of a manuscript or early printed book with luminous colors\, notably gold and silver. This illumination was prominent in the frontispiece\, or first page of text\, which included the decoration of its borders and initial letter\, and even miniatures\, that is\, scenes with an independent narrative. With the introduction of movable-type printing in 1454\, these illuminations would be gradually replaced by woodcuts\, which were printed from a woodblock that had been cut by knife along the grain of the wood.\n\nAvailable during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://myumi.ch/2m7d4).\n\nJoin us on September 13 for a talk by Pablo Alvarez\, curator of the exhibit.

DESCRIPTION:Come explore the intricate and interlocking world of Sarah Buckius’ “!!!techn010ffspring!!!” where feminist art meets science and the history of invention. On view at Lane Hall as part of U-M Arts Initiative’s themed semester on Arts & Resistance\, “!!!techn010ffspring!!!” critiques the patriarchal paradigms of the STEM field by highlighting the history of women inventors. This exhibition brings conceptual invention in fine art and performance to the disciplines of information technology\, robotics\, and engineering. Buckius creates “technoffsprings”: complex machines that weave together the history of inventions related to the gendered labor of women\, especially regarding women’s social roles as caregivers and subjects of care themselves. \nTrained as an engineer and an artist\, Buckius’ machines are intentionally complex\, layered\, and illogical or absurdly logical. In the nature of women’s caregiving\, they teeter between order and chaos. Her “digital tinkerings” tell epic tales of motherhood\, technology\, female bodies\, and commerce—both personal and externalized through women’s inventions and early forays that bridged caregiving and commerce. Buckius' work proposes improvisation as a form of absurdist resistance to\, and alternative to\, patriarchal\, capitalist\, production-based\, and seemingly rational\, useful\, logical systems. \n“!!!techn010ffspring!!!” is open for viewing M-F\, 9am-4pm or by appointment. University of Michigan instructors can email LaneHallExhibits@umich.edu to request a group tour or schedule a class visit.\nThis project was made possible by a grant from the Arts Initiative at the University of Michigan and co-sponsored by U-M’s Department of Women’s and Gender Studies and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender with support from the Santa Cruz County Arts Council.

Located in the former Homestake gold mine in Lead\, South Dakota\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) houses experiments that give us a better understanding of the universe. The location—deep underground—provides a near-perfect environment for experiments that need to escape the constant bombardment of cosmic radiation\, which can interfere with the detection of rare physics events. Built in collaboration with the University of Michigan\, the LUX-Zeplin is the world’s most sensitive dark matter experiment. SURF also hosts experiments in biology\, geology and engineering.\n\nGina Gibson is an internationally exhibiting artist and professor of Graphic Design at Black Hills State University. In 2019\, Gibson became the first artist in residence at the Sanford Underground Research Facility. Gibson's work celebrates the search deep below the surface for beauty in the old and new\, the light and dark\, and the known and unknown.\n\nUN/EARTH was developed in collaboration with the U-M Department of Physics\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility and Black Hills State University.

When COVID took Tina’s life\, Taylor started ordering identical versions of their childhood games and toys on eBay. As she assembled these objects\, Taylor recalled a memory of climbing with Tina through the skeletal frameworks of unfinished houses in the 1970s. Late at night\, the girls would pick their way through floorless rooms and speculate about their future inhabitants. In this spirit of imaginative experimentation\, Taylor began taking apart her eBay acquisitions. Gathering\, breaking\, sawing\, splicing\, painting\, gluing\, layering\, and reassembling these toys became\, for her\, a way to probe the complicated nature of a lost friendship and to explore the multidimensional nature of grief. Ultimately\, Taylor built the framework of an unfinished house to evoke those she once explored with Tina. Taylor describes the house as a “container for grief.” \n\nSeptember 28 - October 27 \nOpening & Reception: September 28\, 1-3pm \nGalleryDAAS \n\nAbout this series of events: \nArt & Resistance Fall 2023 Theme Semester Programming \nSponsored by Arts Initiative\, UMMA\, American Culture\, Latina/o Studies\, the Department of Film\, Television and Media & the Museum Studies Program \nPresented by Charlotte Juergens\, 2nd year Ph.D. student in American Culture \nhttp://bit.ly/UMafterthought UID:112261-21828701@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/112261 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:american culture,Art,arts,arts at michigan,Arts Initiative,Culture,Department Of American Culture,Exhibition,Film,food,Free,Graduate,In Person,Latina/o Studies,Media,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Haven Hall - galleryDAAS CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231101T123255 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231017T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231017T140000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Kellogg Predoctoral Fellowships: One Path towards a Research Career DESCRIPTION:Thinking about PhD programs after graduation? \n\nApplying this year and want to keep your options open? \n\nTrying to gain research experience during a gap year? \n\nA research fellowship at our business school could be right for you! \n\nJoin our information session to learn more about the jobs found here: \n\nhttps://www.kellogg.northwestern.edu/research-support/research-fellows.aspx \n\nThis webinar is live and will not be distributed for future review.

This is not entirely unjustified. Relations between Jews\, Christians\, and Muslims have certainly included their share of religious wars\, theological polemic\, and oppression. Yet there is also another side to the Abrahamic coin. Even in the midst of communal rivalry\, Jewish\, Christian and Muslim practitioners have often turned to each other to think through religious concepts\, elucidate a shared sense of sacred history\, and enrich their ritual practices. From the development of shared ritual practices surrounding childbirth to ecumenical medieval study groups\, this talk explores historical moments when Jews\, Christians\, and Muslim have done their religious thinking together.\n\n--\n\nFrom Dr. Wollenberg: I teach biblical reception history\, or the history of Jewish biblical interpretation. My research explores the diverse ways in which historical Jewish communities have imagined the Hebrew Bible as a revelation and the varied modes in which they have engaged with the biblical tradition in practice. While centering rabbinic Jewish communities\, my research frequently looks at loci of intersection between rabbinic Jewish thinkers and neighboring communities\, from early Christian lay practitioners\, to late antique readers of Homer\, and the medieval Muslim scholars who foreshadowed scholarly biblical criticism.\n\nOctober 17\, 7pm\nto be followed by a light reception at 8:30pm.\nThis is a hybrid lecture.

Swingouts are a fundamental (and by far the most recognizable) move of Lindy Hop! They require dancers to hone their connection with a partner and can lay the groundwork for many new moves. We will dedicate most of the time in this class to cleaning up the swingouts you will learn in the first few weeks. We will also focus on musicality and teach you a few fun swingout variations (time permitting).  COURSE PREREQUISITES: Swing I or equivalent. You should feel comfortable switching between 6-count and 8-count Lindy Hop\, have experience with some basic variations (e.g. yoyos\, Lindy circles)\, and feel confident about your musicality and connection. We will not expect you to know how to do a swingout yet – we will teach you to do one! WHEN: 8:30pm-9:30pm on Tuesdays in October (10/3\, 10/10\, 10/17\, 10/24) WHERE: Mason Hall Room 1401\, University of Michigan INSTRUCTORS: Emily Topham & Zayne Knuth  PRICING:-General Admission 4-Week Pass: $40-SAA Member 4-Week Pass: $30-Individual Class: $12Acceptable forms of payment: cash\, check\, or PayPal REGISTRATION: Please register in advance by filling out this short form: https://tinyurl.com/SAAProgressives UID:112798-21829571@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/112798 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION:Mason Hall CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231002T184632 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231018T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231018T235900 SUMMARY:Film Screening:Halaloween: A Muslim Horror Film Festival – *Siccîn 3: Love* (2016) DESCRIPTION:Welcome to Halaloween: A Muslim Horror Film Festival 2023!\n \nWhat is Halaloween?

Set in a tenement house\, the story follows the lives of ordinary citizens who are caught up in the tumultuous events of the rebellion. The tenement’s residents grapple with their own loyalties and beliefs as the rebellion unfolds\, with their romanticized ideals clashing with the harsh realities of war.\n\nThrough vivid dialogue and dramatic events\, O’Casey masterfully portrays their struggles\, dreams\, and disillusionment in the face of political upheaval\, challenging romanticized notions of heroism while highlighting the often-unseen sacrifices made by ordinary individuals. Director Garry Hynes “deliver[s] a Plough that leaves room for all of the fun to be had…while shifting elegantly into an expressionistic mode. A significant achievement by Hynes and her superb ensemble.” (The Irish Examiner)\n\nThis performance is part of Seán O’Casey’s Dublin Trilogy\, which includes The Plough and the Stars\, The Shadow of a Gunman\, and Juno and the Paycock.

It centers on the titular “manga map”\, a rare Japanese travel map of Japan (ca. 1934) that is densely packed with manga illustrations detailing local folklore\, history\, architecture\, flora/fauna\, and more. The exhibit also includes works of Japanese art and cartography in order to consider the dichotomy between artistry and geographic depiction\, and how that plays with the definition of a “map.”\n\nAlongside the exhibit\, the manga map is also part of a new digital humanities preservation project at the library using the online crowd-sourcing platform Zooniverse\, where the map will be transcribed/translated and made into a fully interactive digital map. More information is available at the exhibit.\n\nBoth the exhibit and the Zooniverse project were created as a summer internship capstone project by Joel Liesenberg\, a dual-degree master’s student in International and Regional Studies focusing in Japanese studies and the School of Information focusing in digital curation.

Death threats and assassinations\, politically motivated sectarian violence\, rampant corruption\, and de-Ba’athification policies only further destabilized an educational system already heaving under the devastation of wars\, authoritarian regimes\, and harsh economic sanctions.\n\nThis exhibit invites solidarity with the academics targeted\, but also deeper connection with their experiences and the richness of Iraqi academic life through their written legacies and the testimonies of surviving academics\, many of whom were driven into exile.\n\nThis exhibit in the north lobby is available during Hatcher Library hours (https://myumi.ch/p75dd).\n\nA companion online exhibit\, Tracing Iraqi Artists: From Shadow to Light (https://myumi.ch/n7xre)\, explores modern Iraqi struggle and resistance through contemporary visual art and connection to Iraqi artists and educators. The curators of the online exhibit\, 2023 Michigan Library Scholars Zainab Hakim and Serena Safawi\, hope to center surviving Iraqi artists as they explore their national and artistic identities and respond to the cycles of violence caused by the Iran-Iraq war\, sanctions\, and occupation.

In the years immediately preceding the dam’s construction\, the American University in Cairo directed a large-scale project of salvage anthropology with funding from the Ford Foundation. \n\nThis endeavor yielded hundreds of photographs of al-nuba al-qadima or “Old Nubia” the term affectionately used by community members. Over the past sixty years\, Nubians have used these images to cultivate a collective memory of a lost homeland. From Aswan to Alexandria and beyond\, community members are salvaging their own stories from this anthropological archive\, reshaping it as a sentimental terrain of solidarity across time\, space\, and circumstance. \n\nThis selection of photographs includes persons\, places\, and practices as well as glimpses of the presence of the photographer and researchers. Both online and offline\, Egyptian Nubians continue to share and re-mediate these photos as they recall their historical displacement and revitalize their heritage for future generations.\n\nThe exhibit is curated by Yasmin Moll\, assistant professor of anthropology\, and coordinated by Nesrien Hamid\, doctoral student in anthropology\, with funding from the University of Michigan's Humanities Collaboratory.\n\nFor a deeper dive\, visit the companion exhibit\, Narrating Nubia\, at the Duderstadt Center on North Campus. It delves into the archaeological\, anthropological\, and community narratives of both ancient and modern-day Nubia spanning Egypt and Sudan.

Guardian Passage: The Power of Ukrainian Cultural Memory in the Face of War DESCRIPTION:*Presented in association with UMS*.\n\nIn Guardian Passage\, artists Irina Bondarenko and Katya Lisova employ the tools and imagery of traditional Ukrainian art forms to face down the existential threat brought about by Russia’s war on Ukraine. Bondarenko’s installation forms a causeway for visitors to encounter Ukrainian poetry and the art form of motanka dolls in a newly imagined configuration. Motanka are guardian symbols assembled from the clothes of deceased ancestors. Bondarenko’s ceramics illustrate motanka in situations responding to the war\; each graphic is accompanied by a poem or a song. These ceramics act as lifeboats\, which ferry the Ukrainian resistance through the flood waters of destruction. Lisova’s series of tapestries explore the power of cultural memory to grow in times of war. Traditional embroidery explodes on the surface of photo collage\, where images of the past and present collide on a single surface. Like a lifeline\, red thread connects these projects\, weaving through clay and fabric\, bringing tradition to bear on new significances and the cultural will to survive. This exhibition is part of the LSA theme semester on “Arts and Resistance.”\n\nIrina Bondarenko is an emerging ceramic artist\, a native of Ukraine\, and a biostatistician at the University of Michigan. Irina has been with the University of Michigan Biostatistics Department for more than 20 years. and published over 50 peer-reviewed articles. Along with her career at the School of Public Health\, for the last 10 years Irina has been pursuing her interest in ceramics. Her work was featured in over a dozen national shows\, the 24th San Angelo National Ceramic Competition\, and the “Strictly Functional Pottery National Show” in 2021 and 2022\, and\, most recently\, the Regional Biennial Juried Sculpture Exhibition at Marshall Fredericks Sculpture Museum.\n\nArtist website: https://www.ibondceramics.com/\n\nKatya Lisova is an artist\, designer\, and art historian. Born in Kyiv\, she is a graduate of the Institute of Decorative and Applied Arts and Design named after Mykhailo Boichuk (2009) and the National Academy of Cultural and Artistic Leaders (2018).

Throughout the European Renaissance (1300-1700)\, many book illustrations were exclusively ornamental\, while others focused on enhancing the meaning of the text. However\, as the pages on display attest\, all these illustrations share a common ground: they reveal the aesthetic and intellectual fashions first proposed by Italian artists of the 1400s\, who were strongly committed to the recovery of the past of classical antiquity.\n\nThe word “Illumination\,” from the Latin illuminare\, “to enlighten or to illuminate\,” refers to the embellishment of a manuscript or early printed book with luminous colors\, notably gold and silver. This illumination was prominent in the frontispiece\, or first page of text\, which included the decoration of its borders and initial letter\, and even miniatures\, that is\, scenes with an independent narrative. With the introduction of movable-type printing in 1454\, these illuminations would be gradually replaced by woodcuts\, which were printed from a woodblock that had been cut by knife along the grain of the wood.\n\nAvailable during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://myumi.ch/2m7d4).\n\nJoin us on September 13 for a talk by Pablo Alvarez\, curator of the exhibit.

DESCRIPTION:Come explore the intricate and interlocking world of Sarah Buckius’ “!!!techn010ffspring!!!” where feminist art meets science and the history of invention. On view at Lane Hall as part of U-M Arts Initiative’s themed semester on Arts & Resistance\, “!!!techn010ffspring!!!” critiques the patriarchal paradigms of the STEM field by highlighting the history of women inventors. This exhibition brings conceptual invention in fine art and performance to the disciplines of information technology\, robotics\, and engineering. Buckius creates “technoffsprings”: complex machines that weave together the history of inventions related to the gendered labor of women\, especially regarding women’s social roles as caregivers and subjects of care themselves. \nTrained as an engineer and an artist\, Buckius’ machines are intentionally complex\, layered\, and illogical or absurdly logical. In the nature of women’s caregiving\, they teeter between order and chaos. Her “digital tinkerings” tell epic tales of motherhood\, technology\, female bodies\, and commerce—both personal and externalized through women’s inventions and early forays that bridged caregiving and commerce. Buckius' work proposes improvisation as a form of absurdist resistance to\, and alternative to\, patriarchal\, capitalist\, production-based\, and seemingly rational\, useful\, logical systems. \n“!!!techn010ffspring!!!” is open for viewing M-F\, 9am-4pm or by appointment. University of Michigan instructors can email LaneHallExhibits@umich.edu to request a group tour or schedule a class visit.\nThis project was made possible by a grant from the Arts Initiative at the University of Michigan and co-sponsored by U-M’s Department of Women’s and Gender Studies and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender with support from the Santa Cruz County Arts Council.

Located in the former Homestake gold mine in Lead\, South Dakota\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) houses experiments that give us a better understanding of the universe. The location—deep underground—provides a near-perfect environment for experiments that need to escape the constant bombardment of cosmic radiation\, which can interfere with the detection of rare physics events. Built in collaboration with the University of Michigan\, the LUX-Zeplin is the world’s most sensitive dark matter experiment. SURF also hosts experiments in biology\, geology and engineering.\n\nGina Gibson is an internationally exhibiting artist and professor of Graphic Design at Black Hills State University. In 2019\, Gibson became the first artist in residence at the Sanford Underground Research Facility. Gibson's work celebrates the search deep below the surface for beauty in the old and new\, the light and dark\, and the known and unknown.\n\nUN/EARTH was developed in collaboration with the U-M Department of Physics\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility and Black Hills State University.

A key player in this process is the kinesin superfamily of motor proteins. These proteins participate in a diverse range of cellular processes\, from facilitating long-range axonal transport to orchestrating the mitotic spindle during\ncell division. The regulation of kinesin motor proteins occurs via inhibitory and activation-based mechanisms\, where kinesin motor proteins are subject to autoinhibition when not bound to a cargo.\nRecently\, the discovery of the kinesin-binding protein (KIFBP) revealed a novel form of kinesin inhibition\, in which KIFBP binds to kinesin motor domains to block microtubule-binding. Cell biological studies indicate that both autoinhibition and KIFBP-mediated inhibition are critical for proper cellular function. However\, there remains little consensus and conflicting reports on the molecular mechanism of kinesin autoinhibition due to a lack of structural information on fulllength kinesin motors. Moreover\, the mechanism governing the KIFBP inhibition is poorly defined. In my Ph.D. research\, I applied integrative structural analysis to determine how\nautoinhibition and KIFBP-mediated inhibition occurs at molecular levels. My research project on kinesin-1 autoinhibition revised the established model in the field by offering the first comprehensive description of kinesin-1 autoinhibition (Tan et al. eLife 2023). Kinesin-1\, discovered nearly 40 years ago\, was the first identified kinesin and serves as a model for understanding kinesin function. A widely accepted model of kinesin-1 autoinhibition is that the C-terminal tail of kinesin-1 drives autoinhibition to block motility. However\, published data suggested that the tail may not be the sole determinant of autoinhibition. To uncover the molecular\nmechanism of kinesin-1 autoinhibition\, I combined AlphaFold protein structure prediction\, electron microscopy and cross-linking mass spectrometry to reveal the molecular architecture of autoinhibited kinesin-1. My findings revised the previous model and showed that multiple intramolecular contacts within the kinesin-1 lead to an inhibited state. My work provides a framework to understand why kinesin-1 activation requires cargo adaptors and microtubule-associated proteins to bind to and compete with intramolecular association to produce an open\,\nactive motor. My second project aimed to investigate kinesin binding protein (KIFBP)\, a newly identified regulatory binding partner of kinesins. KIFBP exhibits the remarkable ability to associate and inhibit specific members of the kinesin superfamily. Mutations to KIFBP in humans have been linked to the neurological disorder Goldberg-Shprintzen (GOSHS) syndrome. Despite the clinical\nrelevance of KIFBP\, it remains unclear how KIFBP binds kinesins\, how it achieves specificity for a subset of kinesins\, and which kinesin(s) are responsible for the phenotypes seen in GOSHS. To characterize the mechanism of kinesin regulation through KIFBP\, I determined cryo-EM structures of KIFBP alone at 3.8Å and KIFBP bound to two different kinesin motors at 4.5-4.9Å. I used de novo atomic modeling along with Phenix and Rosetta to develop a model for the KIFBP-engaged\nkinesin motors. My structures provided the first atomistic view of kinesin engaged by KIFBP\, showing that\, KIFBP remodels and displaces the microtubules binding helix from kinesins to block microtubule binding. My work (Solon*\, Tan*\, et al. Science Advances 2021) paves the way for a deeper understanding of how KIFBP regulates its subset of kinesins\, how it achieves specificity in binding\, and how it contributes to GOSHS UID:114101-21832341@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114101 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biophysics,Biophysics Program LOCATION:Rackham Graduate School (Horace H.) - Earl Lewis Room (3rd Floor) CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231102T063239 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231018T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231018T160000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:EOP's STEM Diversity Virtual Career Fair-October 18 2023-The University of Michigan DESCRIPTION:This career fair is for current college students\, recent graduates\, entry-level job seekers and experienced professionals who have backgrounds and career interests in the science\, technology\, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields.

Steyerberg\, PhD\nProfessor of Clinical Biostatistics & Medical Decision Making\, Chair\, Dept of Biomedical Data Sciences\nLeiden University Medical Center\, The Netherlands\n\nClinical prediction models aim to predict a person’s risk of an outcome (e.g. complications\, mortality) given their observed characteristics (1). Risk predictions are traditionally derived from regression models. Artificial Intelligence\, and specifically Machine Learning methods\, are gaining interest to develop predictive algorithms. Predictions from classic models or AI algorithms need to be reliable to provide valid support for tasks such as shared decision making and whether a person should initiate a particular treatment.\nThe aim of this talk is to review recent developments in prediction model development and validation. Illustrations will be provided from different medical applications. Trustworthiness will be discussed in relation to the statistical aspects -such as sample size and the exceptionality of patients-\, model uncertainty\, and heterogeneity between contexts of practical application.\n\nReferences\n1.

For the application\, we focus on the 2021 Evidence for Equality National Survey (EVENS) which was led by the Centre on Dynamics of Ethnicity (CoDE) at the University of Manchester in the United Kingdom\, in partnership with Ipsos-MORI. The aim was to understand the impact of the COVID19 pandemic on ethnic and religious minority groups in the UK. Standard probability-based surveys\, even with ethnic minority group boosts\, do not have the sample sizes required to obtain reliable estimates for small group statistics. We therefore designed a non-probability web survey of ethnic minority groups to overcome these limitations. We formed partnerships with community organizations and used innovative recruitment strategies\, including digital and social media. Daily monitoring of the data collection against desired sample sizes and R-indicator calculations allowed the team to focus attention on the recruitment of specific groups in a responsive data collection mode. We also supplemented the sample with existing members in both established non-probability and probability-based panels in the UK. We describe the measures applied to improve the quality of the collected data and the statistical adjustments to correct for selection and coverage biases based on estimating the probability of participation in the non-probability sample using combined probability reference samples followed by calibration to auxiliary information from the UK Census 2021. We demonstrate how a pseudo-population bootstrap approach can be designed to obtain bootstrap weights to allow for statistical analyses and inference. \n \nNatalie Shlomo is Professor of Social Statistics at the University of Manchester and publishes widely in the area of survey statistics\, including small area estimation\, adaptive survey designs\, non-probability sampling\, confidentiality and privacy\, data linkage and integration. She has over 70 publications and refereed book chapters and a track record of generating external funding for her research. She is an elected member of the International Statistical Institute (ISI)\, a fellow of the Royal Statistical Society\, a fellow of the Academy of Social Sciences and President 2023-2025 of the International Association of Survey Statisticians.

When COVID took Tina’s life\, Taylor started ordering identical versions of their childhood games and toys on eBay. As she assembled these objects\, Taylor recalled a memory of climbing with Tina through the skeletal frameworks of unfinished houses in the 1970s. Late at night\, the girls would pick their way through floorless rooms and speculate about their future inhabitants. In this spirit of imaginative experimentation\, Taylor began taking apart her eBay acquisitions. Gathering\, breaking\, sawing\, splicing\, painting\, gluing\, layering\, and reassembling these toys became\, for her\, a way to probe the complicated nature of a lost friendship and to explore the multidimensional nature of grief. Ultimately\, Taylor built the framework of an unfinished house to evoke those she once explored with Tina. Taylor describes the house as a “container for grief.” \n\nSeptember 28 - October 27 \nOpening & Reception: September 28\, 1-3pm \nGalleryDAAS \n\nAbout this series of events: \nArt & Resistance Fall 2023 Theme Semester Programming \nSponsored by Arts Initiative\, UMMA\, American Culture\, Latina/o Studies\, the Department of Film\, Television and Media & the Museum Studies Program \nPresented by Charlotte Juergens\, 2nd year Ph.D. student in American Culture \nhttp://bit.ly/UMafterthought UID:112261-21828702@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/112261 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:american culture,Art,arts,arts at michigan,Arts Initiative,Culture,Department Of American Culture,Exhibition,Film,food,Free,Graduate,In Person,Latina/o Studies,Media,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Haven Hall - galleryDAAS CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231015T223254 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231018T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231018T143000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Logic Seminar: The Extension of Post's Lattice to Countable Borel Clones DESCRIPTION:Given a set of cardinals N and an underlying set X\, an N-ary function clone on X is a set of functions f: Xⁿ → X for n ∈ N\, which contains all projection functions and is closed under composition. In 1941\, Emil Post fully characterized all clones of finite functions f: 2ⁿ → 2 in a lattice famously titled Post’s lattice\, ordered by inclusion. In this second seminar on this topic\, we will again motivate the two main perspectives towards clones\, discuss new results\, and briefly touch on the current focus of this project.

The dark sector undergoes a first order phase transition (FOPT)\, and the DM candidates acquire a mass much larger than their temperature and therefore get trapped in the false vacuum. The rate of leakage of dark sector particles into the true vacuum is suppressed enough that eventually (some of or even all of) the pockets of false vacuum collapse into primordial black holes (PBHs). During Hawking evaporation\, PBHs reproduce (recycle) the DM candidates that initially collapsed into them. The DM particles emitted by PBHs are ultra-heavy (∼10^{12} GeV)\, due to being materialized in the true vacuum\, and are sparse enough to be able to explain the observed abundance of DM today without overclosing it.

Within the standard model of particle physics\, cosmic neutrinos constitute an important thermal relic but more generally many well-motivated extensions of the standard models predict the existence of other light thermal relics\, even more weakly coupled to ordinary matter. Recent advancements in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) measurements have enabled indirect constraints on the cosmic neutrino background. This talk explores the current status and future prospects for enhancing these constraints\, with a specific focus on the phase shift in acoustic peaks of the CMB induced by neutrino fluctuations\, and more generally by any free-streaming species present at recombination.

Building on Altonji\, Giraldo-P ́aez\, Hynsj ̈o\, and Vidangos (2022)\, we estimate a model of individual earnings\, marriage\, divorce\, fertility\, and nonlabor income\, where key parameters vary with birth year. For the 1935–44\, 1945–62\, and 1967–80 birth cohorts\, we use the model to measure the dynamic responses of earnings\, marital status\, and family income to various labor market shocks\, education differences\, and permanent wage heterogeneity. For each cohort\, we also provide gender-specific estimates of the contribution of education\, permanent wages\, labor market shocks\, spouse characteristics\, spouse wage shocks\, and marital histories to the variance of lifetime family income. For both the dynamic responses and the variance decompositions\, we isolate the importance of effects on marriage probabilities and on spouse characteristics (sorting). We find that gender asymmetries are substantially smaller for more recent cohorts. The decline reflects the increase in the labor supply of married women as well as other changes. We also find that own characteristics have become increasingly important in the determination of lifetime family income for women\, while variation in spouse characteristics has become less important. The opposite is true for men. Gender differences in the sources of inequality in lifetime family income have narrowed.

And there are various widespread and and perennial sorts of puzzlement about how a hope like that can even seriously be entertained – puzzlements (that is) about how it is that the macrocondition of the universe 15 billion years ago\, all by itself\, can even imaginably be up to the job of explaining so much about the feel\, today and on earth\, of the passing of time. I want to try to alleviate those puzzlements here. I will begin with a number of very general observations – and then\, by way of illustration\, I will present a new and detailed analysis of how it is that a simple pendulum clock invariably arranges to turn its hands clockwise in the temporal direction that points away from the Big Bang.

Volunteer partners host and operate receiving stations across the world that autonomously listen for flying migratory animals equipped with transmitters called nanotags. Researchers rely on the receivers for movement data for a diversity of tagged wildlife\, including birds\, bats\, and insects. Despite widespread interest in wildlife tracking and research within and beyond the Reserve system\, this technology has only been used sporadically at a few reserve sites to date.\n\nIn 2018\, the ACE Basin NERR received private funding to implement a Motus receiver station at partner State Park\, which sparked interest from potential collaborators. Since 2020\, a multi-reserve project led by the ACE Basin Reserve has held a series of workshops to provide guidance and assistance on siting\, construction\, installation\, and interpretation of Motus sites at participating reserves. In this webinar\, project lead Jessica Kinsella will share how this effort has created new partnerships and positioned the Reserve as a regional leader for the Motus initiative\, while enabling partners to increase their contribution to coastal bird research and engage their end users in coastal bird conservation and management.

This link relies on the convergence of network weights to a smooth function as the number of layers increases. We investigate the properties of weights trained by stochastic gradient descent and their scaling with network depth through detailed numerical experiments. We observe the existence of scaling regimes markedly different from those assumed in neural ODE literature. Depending on certain features of the network architecture\, such as the smoothness of the activation function\, we prove the existence of an alternative ODE limit\, a stochastic differential equation\, or neither of these. For each case\, we also derive the limit of the backpropagation dynamics and address its adaptiveness issue. These findings cast doubts on the validity of the neural ODE model as an adequate asymptotic description of deep ResNets and point to an alternative class of differential equations as a better description of the deep network limit.\n \nWhen the gradient descent method is applied to the training of ResNets\, we prove that it converges linearly to a global minimum if the network is sufficiently deep and the initialization is sufficiently small. In addition\, the global minimum found by the gradient descent method has finite quadratic variation without using any regularization in the training. This confirms existing empirical results that the gradient descent method enjoys an implicit regularization property and is capable of generalizing to unseen data.\n \nThis is based on joint work with Rama Cont (Oxford)\, Alain Rossier (Oxford)\, and Alain-Sam Cohen (InstaDeep).

Previous research proved that\, for k > -1\, the number of primes less than x^{k+1} can be well approximated by summing the k-th powers of all primes up to x. I extend this result to primes in arithmetic progressions: I prove that the number of primes p=n mod m less than x^{k+1} is asymptotic to the sum of k-th powers of all primes p= n mod m up to x. I also prove that the prime power sum approximation tends to be an underestimate for positive k and an overestimate for negative k\, and quantify for different values of k how well the approximation works for x between 10^4 and $10^8. In this seminar\, I will talk about the history of the prime number theorem and my findings.

Classification of Horocycle Orbit Closures in Z-covers DESCRIPTION:Horospherical group actions on homogeneous spaces are famously known to be extremely rigid. In finite volume homogeneous spaces\, it is a special case of Ratner’s theorems that all horospherical orbit closures are homogeneous. Rigidity further extends in rank-one to infinite volume but geometrically finite spaces. The geometrically infinite setting is far less understood.\n\nWe study Z-covers of compact hyperbolic surfaces and provide the first description of all possible horocycle orbit closures in this category. Surprisingly\, the topology and Hausdorff dimension of these non-homogeneous orbit closures delicately and discontinuously depends on the choice of a hyperbolic metric on the covered compact surface. Nevertheless\, some rigidity is preserved in the form of integer Hausdorff dimension of all orbit closures. Based on an ongoing series of works together with James Farre and Yair Minsky.

We defined the core regulatory circuitry of fusion positive rhabdomyosarcoma (FP-RMS\, a cancer of childhood) in primary tumors and cell lines\, which includes PAX3-FOXO1 (P3F)\, MYOD1\, SOX8\, MYCN and others. To find chemical probes able to selectively inhibit CR TF transcription\, we screened the Structural Genomics Consortium epigenetic probe set by RNA-seq. We found that chemical probes along the acetylation-axis\, and not the methylation-axis\, are able to cause selective disruption of CR TF transcription. Inhibitors of HDACs (acetylation erasers)\, BRD4 (acetylation readers) and CBP/p300 (acetylation writers) were all able to selectively halt CR TF transcription. \nFor HDACs\, this raised a conundrum: why would too much histone acetylation\, an active chromatin mark\, stop transcription at CR TFs? ChIP-seq showed that CR TFs build SEs that have the largest quantities of histone acetylation and the enzymes that write acetylation (i.e.\, p300)\, yet paradoxically also harbor the highest amounts of the opposing histone deacetylases (HDACs). To investigate the architectural effects of disabling HDACs and causing hyper acetylation\, we developed Absolute Quantification of Architecture (AQuA) HiChIP\, revealing erosion of native SE contacts at CR TFs\, and extensive aberrant contacts. This did not cause an elongation defect\, but rather removed RNA Pol2 from core regulatory genetic elements and eliminated RNA-Pol2 phase condensates in 20 minutes. We further dissected the contribution of HDAC isoforms using a set of HDAC selective inhibitors\, finding HDAC1/2/3 are co-essential to CR transcription. \nUsing HAT inhibitors/degraders\, we discovered a profound dependence on CBP/p300 for clustering of Pol2 loops that connect P3F to its target genes. In the absence of CBP/p300\, Pol2 long range enhancer loops collapse\, Pol2 accumulates in CpG islands and fails to exit the gene body. These results reveal a potential novel axis for therapeutic interference with P3F in FP-RMS and clarify the molecular relationship of P3F and CBP/p300 in sustaining active Pol2 clusters essential for oncogenic transcription. \nIn multiple contexts\, we propose Pol2 Un-Loading Ratio (PULR) as a new key metric to quantify and explain the drug induced defects in CR TF transcription. Overall\, our data reveals a SE-specific need for balancing histone acetylation states to maintain SE architecture\, Pol2 clustering in 3D\, and CR TF transcription.\n\nhttps://umich-health.zoom.us/j/93929606089?pwd=SHh6R1FOQm8xMThRemdxTEFMWWpVdz09\n\nShort bio:\nDr. Berkley Gryder is a chemist who retrained as a molecular biologist and computer scientist. He is passionate about understanding how cancer cells control their genes\, and developing new chemical strategies to stop cancer cell’s addiction to gene transcription. Along the way\, he has proposed paradigm shifts and surprises that are explaining old conundrums. Recognizing that the “right” answer to a tough question is often out of reach with current tools\, Dr. Gryder is always innovating techniques with an ultra-high level of spatial and temporal precision to study gene control/epigenetics.

We use benchmark data to measure up to aspirational peers. We devise strategic plans with goals informed by consultants and\, sometimes\, research findings. However\, we rarely examine our own desires for the future of our work and of our academic communities. It is rare to talk about desire in the academy but drawing from the work of Eve Tuck\, Audre Lorde\, and adrienne maree brown\, we will engage the “politics of desire” as a tool for envisioning and strategizing for the transformation of our communities.\n\nABOUT THE SPEAKER\nDr. D-L Stewart is professor and chair of the Higher Education Department in the Morgridge College of Education at the University of Denver. Over the course of his faculty career\, he has focused most intently on the history and philosophy of higher education and the institutional systems and structures that affect the experiences\, growth\, development\, and success of racially minoritized and queer and trans* students in historically white postsecondary institutions. Dr. Stewart examines these topics through intersectional\, critical\, and poststructural frameworks that interrogate the multiple manifestations of whiteness and settler colonialism in U.S. higher education. In addition to more than 150 invited and refereed presentations and over 90 journal publications and book chapters\, Dr. Stewart is also an author or editor of four books related to multicultural student services\, contexts and opportunities for LGBTQ+ students\, history of Black collegians in private liberal arts colleges\, and the use of critical frameworks in student development theorizing. Dr. Stewart has also received numerous awards for teaching\, research\, and service\, including being named a 2022 Senior Scholar Diplomate and receiving the 2021 Contribution to Knowledge Award from ACPA-College Student Educators International. Dr. Stewart was the 2021 president for the Association for the Study of Higher Education. In 2020\, Dr. Stewart founded Radical Insights Speaking\, Consulting\, and Training LLC whose mission is to transform\, initiate\, generate\, equip\, and reinvigorate (T.I.G.E.R.) leaders and organizations toward greater equity and justice.\n\nDOORS\nDoors open at 5:30 p.m. Event starts at 6:00 p.m.\n\n\nLGBT HISTORY MONTH\nFor more campus events marking LGBT History Month\, visit myumi.ch/lgbt-history-month.

As a filmmaker\, I've experienced the profound impact of such transitions firsthand\, having grown up in a small Indian town that eventually gave way to urbanization.\n \n“The human story around a single-screen theatre\, intertwined with the city's renaming and the backdrop of the Kumbh Mela\, reflects a universal narrative of how communities grapple with progress while honoring their history. As a director\, I believe that this film holds a mirror to the challenges many regions across South Asia face as they navigate the intricate balance between preserving cultural heritage and embracing modernity.\n \n“By showcasing *Shoebox* to the audience at the Center for South Asian Studies\, I hope to spark meaningful conversations about the multifaceted dimensions of development\, identity\, and the value of preserving cultural roots. I'm excited to contribute to the dialogue and offer a glimpse into the emotional journey that my protagonist undertakes\, searching for belonging amidst the changes in her hometown\,” adds Ali.\n\nAppetizers and drinks from Everest Sherpa Restaurant (https://www.everestsherparestaurant.com/) will be served between 6:30 and 7:30pm. \n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

It centers on the titular “manga map”\, a rare Japanese travel map of Japan (ca. 1934) that is densely packed with manga illustrations detailing local folklore\, history\, architecture\, flora/fauna\, and more. The exhibit also includes works of Japanese art and cartography in order to consider the dichotomy between artistry and geographic depiction\, and how that plays with the definition of a “map.”\n\nAlongside the exhibit\, the manga map is also part of a new digital humanities preservation project at the library using the online crowd-sourcing platform Zooniverse\, where the map will be transcribed/translated and made into a fully interactive digital map. More information is available at the exhibit.\n\nBoth the exhibit and the Zooniverse project were created as a summer internship capstone project by Joel Liesenberg\, a dual-degree master’s student in International and Regional Studies focusing in Japanese studies and the School of Information focusing in digital curation.

Death threats and assassinations\, politically motivated sectarian violence\, rampant corruption\, and de-Ba’athification policies only further destabilized an educational system already heaving under the devastation of wars\, authoritarian regimes\, and harsh economic sanctions.\n\nThis exhibit invites solidarity with the academics targeted\, but also deeper connection with their experiences and the richness of Iraqi academic life through their written legacies and the testimonies of surviving academics\, many of whom were driven into exile.\n\nThis exhibit in the north lobby is available during Hatcher Library hours (https://myumi.ch/p75dd).\n\nA companion online exhibit\, Tracing Iraqi Artists: From Shadow to Light (https://myumi.ch/n7xre)\, explores modern Iraqi struggle and resistance through contemporary visual art and connection to Iraqi artists and educators. The curators of the online exhibit\, 2023 Michigan Library Scholars Zainab Hakim and Serena Safawi\, hope to center surviving Iraqi artists as they explore their national and artistic identities and respond to the cycles of violence caused by the Iran-Iraq war\, sanctions\, and occupation.

In the years immediately preceding the dam’s construction\, the American University in Cairo directed a large-scale project of salvage anthropology with funding from the Ford Foundation. \n\nThis endeavor yielded hundreds of photographs of al-nuba al-qadima or “Old Nubia” the term affectionately used by community members. Over the past sixty years\, Nubians have used these images to cultivate a collective memory of a lost homeland. From Aswan to Alexandria and beyond\, community members are salvaging their own stories from this anthropological archive\, reshaping it as a sentimental terrain of solidarity across time\, space\, and circumstance. \n\nThis selection of photographs includes persons\, places\, and practices as well as glimpses of the presence of the photographer and researchers. Both online and offline\, Egyptian Nubians continue to share and re-mediate these photos as they recall their historical displacement and revitalize their heritage for future generations.\n\nThe exhibit is curated by Yasmin Moll\, assistant professor of anthropology\, and coordinated by Nesrien Hamid\, doctoral student in anthropology\, with funding from the University of Michigan's Humanities Collaboratory.\n\nFor a deeper dive\, visit the companion exhibit\, Narrating Nubia\, at the Duderstadt Center on North Campus. It delves into the archaeological\, anthropological\, and community narratives of both ancient and modern-day Nubia spanning Egypt and Sudan.

Guardian Passage: The Power of Ukrainian Cultural Memory in the Face of War DESCRIPTION:*Presented in association with UMS*.\n\nIn Guardian Passage\, artists Irina Bondarenko and Katya Lisova employ the tools and imagery of traditional Ukrainian art forms to face down the existential threat brought about by Russia’s war on Ukraine. Bondarenko’s installation forms a causeway for visitors to encounter Ukrainian poetry and the art form of motanka dolls in a newly imagined configuration. Motanka are guardian symbols assembled from the clothes of deceased ancestors. Bondarenko’s ceramics illustrate motanka in situations responding to the war\; each graphic is accompanied by a poem or a song. These ceramics act as lifeboats\, which ferry the Ukrainian resistance through the flood waters of destruction. Lisova’s series of tapestries explore the power of cultural memory to grow in times of war. Traditional embroidery explodes on the surface of photo collage\, where images of the past and present collide on a single surface. Like a lifeline\, red thread connects these projects\, weaving through clay and fabric\, bringing tradition to bear on new significances and the cultural will to survive. This exhibition is part of the LSA theme semester on “Arts and Resistance.”\n\nIrina Bondarenko is an emerging ceramic artist\, a native of Ukraine\, and a biostatistician at the University of Michigan. Irina has been with the University of Michigan Biostatistics Department for more than 20 years. and published over 50 peer-reviewed articles. Along with her career at the School of Public Health\, for the last 10 years Irina has been pursuing her interest in ceramics. Her work was featured in over a dozen national shows\, the 24th San Angelo National Ceramic Competition\, and the “Strictly Functional Pottery National Show” in 2021 and 2022\, and\, most recently\, the Regional Biennial Juried Sculpture Exhibition at Marshall Fredericks Sculpture Museum.\n\nArtist website: https://www.ibondceramics.com/\n\nKatya Lisova is an artist\, designer\, and art historian.

However\, as the pages on display attest\, all these illustrations share a common ground: they reveal the aesthetic and intellectual fashions first proposed by Italian artists of the 1400s\, who were strongly committed to the recovery of the past of classical antiquity.\n\nThe word “Illumination\,” from the Latin illuminare\, “to enlighten or to illuminate\,” refers to the embellishment of a manuscript or early printed book with luminous colors\, notably gold and silver. This illumination was prominent in the frontispiece\, or first page of text\, which included the decoration of its borders and initial letter\, and even miniatures\, that is\, scenes with an independent narrative. With the introduction of movable-type printing in 1454\, these illuminations would be gradually replaced by woodcuts\, which were printed from a woodblock that had been cut by knife along the grain of the wood.\n\nAvailable during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://myumi.ch/2m7d4).\n\nJoin us on September 13 for a talk by Pablo Alvarez\, curator of the exhibit.

DESCRIPTION:Come explore the intricate and interlocking world of Sarah Buckius’ “!!!techn010ffspring!!!” where feminist art meets science and the history of invention. On view at Lane Hall as part of U-M Arts Initiative’s themed semester on Arts & Resistance\, “!!!techn010ffspring!!!” critiques the patriarchal paradigms of the STEM field by highlighting the history of women inventors. This exhibition brings conceptual invention in fine art and performance to the disciplines of information technology\, robotics\, and engineering. Buckius creates “technoffsprings”: complex machines that weave together the history of inventions related to the gendered labor of women\, especially regarding women’s social roles as caregivers and subjects of care themselves. \nTrained as an engineer and an artist\, Buckius’ machines are intentionally complex\, layered\, and illogical or absurdly logical. In the nature of women’s caregiving\, they teeter between order and chaos. Her “digital tinkerings” tell epic tales of motherhood\, technology\, female bodies\, and commerce—both personal and externalized through women’s inventions and early forays that bridged caregiving and commerce. Buckius' work proposes improvisation as a form of absurdist resistance to\, and alternative to\, patriarchal\, capitalist\, production-based\, and seemingly rational\, useful\, logical systems. \n“!!!techn010ffspring!!!” is open for viewing M-F\, 9am-4pm or by appointment. University of Michigan instructors can email LaneHallExhibits@umich.edu to request a group tour or schedule a class visit.\nThis project was made possible by a grant from the Arts Initiative at the University of Michigan and co-sponsored by U-M’s Department of Women’s and Gender Studies and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender with support from the Santa Cruz County Arts Council.

Located in the former Homestake gold mine in Lead\, South Dakota\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) houses experiments that give us a better understanding of the universe. The location—deep underground—provides a near-perfect environment for experiments that need to escape the constant bombardment of cosmic radiation\, which can interfere with the detection of rare physics events. Built in collaboration with the University of Michigan\, the LUX-Zeplin is the world’s most sensitive dark matter experiment. SURF also hosts experiments in biology\, geology and engineering.\n\nGina Gibson is an internationally exhibiting artist and professor of Graphic Design at Black Hills State University. In 2019\, Gibson became the first artist in residence at the Sanford Underground Research Facility. Gibson's work celebrates the search deep below the surface for beauty in the old and new\, the light and dark\, and the known and unknown.\n\nUN/EARTH was developed in collaboration with the U-M Department of Physics\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility and Black Hills State University.

The exhibition examines the Amistad Dam in Del Rio\, the largest dam in Rio Grande that is jointly managed by the United States and Mexico and other contested sites in the region to unravel layered histories\, connections\, and tensions present in West Texas through film\, sculpture\, installation\, collage\, and drawing. \nThe experimental documentary film Teaching of the Hands is the center point of the exhibition - as it combines oral histories\, reenactments\, and archival footage to narrate a complex history of colonization\, migration\, and ecological precarity\, Told from the perspective of Juan Mancias\, Chairman of the Carrizo Comecrudo Tribe of Texas\, scenes from the present day are woven together with those from 4\,000 years in the past to investigate the transformation of Somi Se’k* by way of industry\, infrastructure\, and private property. \nEmerging from the research to create the film\, the exhibition includes an immersive installation of surveying flags and tools\, series of drawings and collages\, and a collection of original watercolors from the 1930s by artists and amateur archaeologists Forrest and Lula Kirkland that depict the ancient rock art of the Lower Pecos\,that expand on concepts in The Teachings of the Hands. The watercolors\, rarely seen plein air paintings\, are on loan from the Texas Archaeological Research Laboratory at the University of Texas\, and document the original forms and vibrant colors of murals that were still visible in the 1930s before flooding\, erosion\, and human interaction damaged or destroyed them. This exhibition has been shown in various iterations at Ballroom Marfa\, the University of Texas at Austin\, the Rubin Center for the Visual Arts\, the Museum of Modern Art in New York and University of California\, Santa Barbara\, and will be shown in Michigan and the midwest for the first time. The Blessings of the Mystery brings together an expansive body of work that sheds light on vital histories\, living memories and Indigenous knowledge-systems embedded within the land well before the colonial boundaries between Mexico and the US were established - advocating for environmental justice and recognition of Indigenous rights and cosmologies.

DESCRIPTION:This talk will be recorded for future viewing.\n\nAbstract: The Earth is facing its 6th massive extinction of species\, devastating effects of climate change\, vast habitat loss\, species invasions\, and overexploitation of our oceans. Interdisciplinary research capable to understand and predict how the various ecosystems on the planet respond to those impacts is now critical to inform local and global actions to adapt to those responses\, and to reduce human impacts on ecosystems. In this talk\, I will show how mathematical models of ecological networks can help us understand ecosystem responses to environmental changes\, including those caused by species invasions\, assembly of novel communities\, and fisheries. I will present three of my most recent projects\, which evaluate: 1) the effect of transient dynamics on plant invasion success in plant-pollinator networks\, 2) the effects of network motif assembly and disassembly on the structure and species persistence of novel plant-pollinator networks\, and 3) the impacts of bycatch policies and fishers’ heterogeneous information on marine food webs and fishery sustainability. I conclude by emphasizing that interdisciplinary research conducted by teams of theoretical and empirical ecologists\, evolutionary biologists\, mathematicians\, computer scientists\, oceanographers\, economists and other social scientists is needed to address the environmental crisis our world faces.

Join us as ISR researchers take the stage to share their insights in captivating talks. \n\nThis project uses data from the Criminal Justice Administrative Records Systems linked with survey and administrative data sources from the U.S. Census Bureau to provide the first evidence on the looming retirement crisis stemming from the aging generations of Americans who have been increasingly impacted by criminal justice policies like mass incarceration. In this research\, we (1) characterize the economic vulnerability of those with criminal histories approaching retirement\, (2) measure the share of current retirees with criminal records and provide projections of how these rates among retiring cohorts will close to double over the next 20 years\, and (3) leverage two recent class action lawsuits against the Social Security Administration to quantify how extending safety net assistance (financial support and health insurance) impacts this population in old age. This analysis shows that extending programs like OASDI and SSI to the aging justice-involved populations has a number of important benefits: reducing poverty\; decreasing disability and mortality rates\; lowering usage of costly living arrangements like nursing homes\, homeless shelters\, and residential treatment facilities\; and strengthening co-residency among families.

Psychologists and biologists assume that natural selection favored the development of a \"disgust response\" to protect us from ingesting pathogens\, with putrid meat and maggots topping the list of genetically hardwired disgust elicitors. The ethnohistoric record shows this explanation to be false: eating rotten\, maggoty meat was nearly universal outside of major Western and colonial centers until about WWI\, and rotten meat was often preferred. The aversion to eating carrion emerged in the eastern Mediterranean region\, probably during the Bronze Age\, not for health reasons\, but as a way of remaining pure in the eyes of God. Insights from the full\, five-hundred-year-long ethnohistoric record also challenge some of Binford's classic subsistence-settlement models (logistical mobility\, utility indices). Women were often participants in long-distance multi-day hunts and\, as a result\, the archaeological signatures of such hunts are unlikely to be of the single-sex task-specific nature anticipated by Binford. Also\, northern foragers avoid eating muscle meat because it lacks fat and either feed it to their dogs or discard it. Time permitting\, I will also discuss a few other interesting insights from the ethnohistoric record.

When COVID took Tina’s life\, Taylor started ordering identical versions of their childhood games and toys on eBay. As she assembled these objects\, Taylor recalled a memory of climbing with Tina through the skeletal frameworks of unfinished houses in the 1970s. Late at night\, the girls would pick their way through floorless rooms and speculate about their future inhabitants. In this spirit of imaginative experimentation\, Taylor began taking apart her eBay acquisitions. Gathering\, breaking\, sawing\, splicing\, painting\, gluing\, layering\, and reassembling these toys became\, for her\, a way to probe the complicated nature of a lost friendship and to explore the multidimensional nature of grief. Ultimately\, Taylor built the framework of an unfinished house to evoke those she once explored with Tina. Taylor describes the house as a “container for grief.” \n\nSeptember 28 - October 27 \nOpening & Reception: September 28\, 1-3pm \nGalleryDAAS \n\nAbout this series of events: \nArt & Resistance Fall 2023 Theme Semester Programming \nSponsored by Arts Initiative\, UMMA\, American Culture\, Latina/o Studies\, the Department of Film\, Television and Media & the Museum Studies Program \nPresented by Charlotte Juergens\, 2nd year Ph.D. student in American Culture \nhttp://bit.ly/UMafterthought UID:112261-21828703@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/112261 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:american culture,Art,arts,arts at michigan,Arts Initiative,Culture,Department Of American Culture,Exhibition,Film,food,Free,Graduate,In Person,Latina/o Studies,Media,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Haven Hall - galleryDAAS CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231013T122212 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231019T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231019T150000 SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:Center Awareness Day Open House DESCRIPTION:October 19 is LGBT Center Awareness day\, a national day of action focused on awareness around the work of LGBT community centers everywhere. \n\nJoin Spectrum Center for our Center Awareness Day Open House.

U-M ChE faculty and graduate students are especially encouraged to attend.\n\nMulti-scale Energy Systems Engineering provides a methodological\, generic framework to arrive at realistic integrated solutions to complex energy problems by adopting a holistic\, systems-based approach. This framework aims to address the complex energy and environmental problems existing in design\, control and operation of energy and process systems\, and their supply chains in an integrated manner\, by producing optimal design and operational plans for systems ranging from nanoscale\, micro-scale\, meso-scale to mega-scale levels over horizons that range from seconds/minutes to months or years.\n \nMethodologies in multi-scale energy systems engineering include superstructure optimization with high-fidelity & data-driven models\, large-scale mixed integer optimization strategies\, integrated material and process design\, control & operations under uncertainty\, and life-cycle and sustainability assessment. Such a holistic approach is particularly powerful to analyze future scenarios towards establishing viable and business-sensible energy transition strategies\, which take systematically into consideration the energy-process-mobility-materials interactions within a value and supply chain perspective. The seminar will illustrate the concepts\, methods and software prototype software tools of such an integrated modeling strategy in two application areas\, namely (i) SYNOPSIS – a tool for the synthesis of operable process intensification and modular systems\, and (ii) ENERGIAPY – a renewable resources utilization tool focusing on energy and material transition scenario analysis. Optimization and data-analytics capabilities will be also highlighted.\n\nProfessor Pistikopoulos is the Director of the Texas A&M Energy Institute and holds the Dow Chemical Chair Professorship in the Artie McFerrin Department of Chemical Engineering at Texas A&M University.

This will open the new frontier of `gravitational-wave paleontology’: studying massive stars and binary evolution from their ‘remnant’ compact object mergers\, with the goal of answering some of the biggest open questions in astrophysics today: How do these gravitational-wave sources form? What can we learn from them about the formation\, lives\, and explosive deaths of massive stars across cosmic time? How do these sources help to enrich the universe with heavy metals? In this talk\, I will outline the key bottleneck in gravitational-wave paleontology: the gravitational-wave progenitor Uncertainty Challenge. I will present how we aim to quantify and understand the key uncertainties in theoretical models of the formation of gravitational-wave sources focusing on the formation from isolated massive binary stars\, with the key goal to use the rapidly growing population of gravitational-wave observations as a new probe of the formation\, lives\, and deaths of massive binary stars through cosmic history.

Using a large-scale experiment in which randomly-selected mothers receive cash transfers for the first two years of their child’s life\, we examine the relationship between income and child development in the Indian state of Jharkhand. Treated mothers and children experienced large increases in nutritional intake\, and an index of motor and cognitive skills improved by 0.12SD. However\, child anthropometric indicators improved only in areas with low rates of open defecation. These results suggest that poor sanitation is a key explanatory factor for the poor translation of increases in income into child growth in India.\n\n\nThis talk is presented by the Economic Development Seminar\, sponsored in part by the Department of Economics through a generous gift given by Jay and Beth Rakow.

Primary tissue histology is a flawed standard for alloimmunity surveillance\, as histological evidence of rejection inherently lags behind molecular biomarkers of alloimmunity. A minimally invasive surveillance method is needed to identify early risk of rejection for minimizing invasive procedures and personalizing interventions. We have developed biomaterial scaffolds for minimally-invasive sampling. These scaffolds amass immune cells producing biomarkers of disease as an engineered niche which can predict rejection onset. In this work\, we employ biomaterials as sentinels to capture the longitudinal immune domain of healthy and rejecting transplants and healthy and miscarriage-prone rodent pregnancies without disrupting the primary tissue and with greater specificity than blood.\n\nBio:\nDr. Russell Urie is a postdoctoral fellow here at the University of Michigan with Professor Lonnie Shea\, developing tissue engineering scaffolds for immunosurveillance of transplant rejection and prenatal complications. Prior to his postdoc\, he obtained his PhD with Dr. Kaushal Rege in Chemical Engineering from Arizona State University\, where his research centered on the creation of stimulus-responsive nanomaterials for tissue repair. Throughout his academic journey\, Russell has received several accolades for his research and teaching contributions. Moreover\, he has demonstrated a strong commitment to mentoring undergraduate and graduate students in their research pursuits.​​​​​​​\n\nZoom:\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/99085426766 UID:114040-21832241@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114040 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biology,biomedical,biomedical engineering,bme,engineer,engineering,Michigan Engineering LOCATION:Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Building - 1311 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230926T140040 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231019T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231019T180000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Clarence Roy-SmithGroup JJR Lecture DESCRIPTION:Tao Zhang\, PLA\, ASLA\, LEED AP-ND\, SITES AP\nPrincipal & Chair of Design Culture\, SASAKI\n\nTao Zhang (MS/MLA ’08) is an international leader in ecological design\, recognized with over forty-five national and international awards.

Flooding Nubian settlements and causing the population to move their homes higher up the banks of the Nile\, the dam’s increasingly high floodwaters constituted Nubia within imaginaries of (ancient) Egypt itself. I will illustrate how the imbrication of imperial engineering\, national development\, and archaeological survey created a region in which contemporary population became disaggregated from ancient past and touristic gaze shaped all in its image. As a result\, during the 1960s—and this time under the auspices of UNESCO—archaeological and preservationist intervention again took place as construction of the Aswan High Dam began and Nubia flooded further: not only in newly independent Egypt\, but also on the other side of the border in the one-time Anglo-Egyptian Sudan. That work not only rested on earlier colonial intervention\, but also made possible the elision of Nubians from the cross-border region\, perhaps forever.\n-------------\nABOUT THE SPEAKER:\nWilliam Carruthers is a Lecturer in Heritage Studies at the University of Essex.\nHe holds a PhD in the History and Philosophy of Science from the University of Cambridge and earlier degrees in archaeology from UCL.

Since 2016\, world-renowned new media artist Refik Anadol has been exploring the relation between the human mind\, aesthetics\, machine learning technologies\, and architecture to speculate responses to this question. Coining the terms “AI Data Painting\,” “AI Data Sculpture\,” and “latent cinema\,” Anadol has been reflecting on new multi-sensory forms of narrating collective memory in physical and virtual spaces and inviting his audience to imagine alternative and dynamic realities. \nAnadol\, a Turkish native who is based in LA\, is a pioneer in the aesthetics of data and machine intelligence. His work locates creativity at the intersection of humans and machines. Taking the data that surrounds us as primary material\, and the neural network of a computerized mind as a collaborator\, Anadol offers us radical visualizations of our digitized memories and expands the possibilities of interdisciplinary arts. Anadol’s site-specific data paintings and sculptures\, live audio/visual performances\, and immersive installations take many forms\, while encouraging us to rethink our engagement with the physical world\, collective experiences\, public art\, decentralized networks\, and the creative potential of AI. \nAnadol’s work has been exhibited at venues including MoMA\, Centre Pompidou-Metz\, Art Basel\, National Gallery of Victoria\, Venice Architecture Biennale\, Hammer Museum\, Arken Museum\, Dongdaemun Design Plaza\, Ars Electronica\, Istanbul Modern\, and ZKM | Center for Art\, and New Media. Anadol has received a number of awards and prizes including the Lorenzo il Magnifico Lifetime Achievement Award for New Media Art\, Microsoft Research’s Best Vision Award\, German Design Award\, UCLA Art+Architecture Moss Award\, Columbia University’s Breakthrough in Storytelling Award\, and Google’s Artists and Machine Intelligence Artist Residency Award.

Johnson\, Arthur F. Thurnau Professor of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Women's & Gender Studies\n\nThursday\, October 19\, 2023\; 7:00 pm\n\nIn 1986\, Tim Johnson\, then chair of obstetrics and gynecology in the U-M Medical School\, traveled to Ghana as part of an initial group of Americans to reestablish relationships in medicine. The experience transformed him. Confronted with a shockingly high rate of maternal deaths that could have been prevented in the United States\, Dr. Johnson launched a partnership with Ghanaian institutions for training Ob/Gyn health workers -- an unusual and singularly successful partnership\, between U-M and Ghana\, that continues to this day. The Ob/Gyn partnership led to further collaborations between U-M and Ghana\, in other medical fields and beyond\, including the social sciences and humanities. We are very excited to host this session with Dr. Johnson in connection with his new book on the partnership\, More Than \"First Do No Harm\,\" which demonstrates that the partnership serves as vital model for global health collaborations.\n\nTimothy Johnson MD is Arthur F. Thurnau Professor of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Women’s & Gender Studies at the University of Michigan where he was Bates Professor of the Diseases of Women and Children and Chair of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology for twenty-four years. He is a high- risk obstetrician\, and his research interests are fetal behavior\, prenatal care\, medical education and capacity building for health\, global women’s health\, global health ethics\, and assessment and prevention of sexual harassment in academic medicine. He is active in international teaching and training. In 2022 he received the (UM) President’s Award for Distinguished Service in International Education. He has authored over 300 articles\, chapters and books\, and is an elected member of the (US) National Academy of Medicine.\n\nFor those attending in person\, the event will be followed by tours of the Observatory\, with observing if weather permits.

Set in a tenement house in Dublin\, the story centers around the character of Donal Davoren\, a struggling poet mistaken for an Irish Republican Army gunman by his neighbors\, who approach him with a mixture of fear and intrigue. As the rumor of Davoren’s affiliation spreads\, he finds himself caught between his desire to maintain his romantic image as a poet and the harsh reality of being seen as a revolutionary. The tension escalates when an actual IRA gunman arrives\, forcing Davoren to confront the consequences of his assumed identity.\n\n“O’Casey’s dramatic toolbag is stuffed with the conventions of his time: comic double acts\, maudlin heroines\, tragic twists\, malaproprisms\, and melodrama” (The Irish Examiner) as he highlights the profound impact of political unrest on ordinary lives.\n\nThis performance is part of Seán O’Casey’s Dublin Trilogy\, which includes The Plough and the Stars\, The Shadow of a Gunman\, and Juno and the Paycock.

The loss of her grandmother\, the end of her marriage\, and the overwhelming turmoil of COVID lockdowns found the Nashville-based artist on a spiritual journey of self-knowledge and healing with this gift from the mystic swirl. On her brand-new album\, “Queen of Time\,” Lou explores that quest across ten tracks of tender\, heartbreakingly beautiful music. Produced by Dave O'Donnell (James Taylor\, Sheryl Crow\, Heart) ) and featuring a gamut of guests including GRAMMY-winners Billy Strings and Jerry Douglas\, Queen of Time celebrates love and loss\, and captures a new arc of haloed beauty.\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4269/4270 for more detail.

It centers on the titular “manga map”\, a rare Japanese travel map of Japan (ca. 1934) that is densely packed with manga illustrations detailing local folklore\, history\, architecture\, flora/fauna\, and more. The exhibit also includes works of Japanese art and cartography in order to consider the dichotomy between artistry and geographic depiction\, and how that plays with the definition of a “map.”\n\nAlongside the exhibit\, the manga map is also part of a new digital humanities preservation project at the library using the online crowd-sourcing platform Zooniverse\, where the map will be transcribed/translated and made into a fully interactive digital map. More information is available at the exhibit.\n\nBoth the exhibit and the Zooniverse project were created as a summer internship capstone project by Joel Liesenberg\, a dual-degree master’s student in International and Regional Studies focusing in Japanese studies and the School of Information focusing in digital curation.

Death threats and assassinations\, politically motivated sectarian violence\, rampant corruption\, and de-Ba’athification policies only further destabilized an educational system already heaving under the devastation of wars\, authoritarian regimes\, and harsh economic sanctions.\n\nThis exhibit invites solidarity with the academics targeted\, but also deeper connection with their experiences and the richness of Iraqi academic life through their written legacies and the testimonies of surviving academics\, many of whom were driven into exile.\n\nThis exhibit in the north lobby is available during Hatcher Library hours (https://myumi.ch/p75dd).\n\nA companion online exhibit\, Tracing Iraqi Artists: From Shadow to Light (https://myumi.ch/n7xre)\, explores modern Iraqi struggle and resistance through contemporary visual art and connection to Iraqi artists and educators. The curators of the online exhibit\, 2023 Michigan Library Scholars Zainab Hakim and Serena Safawi\, hope to center surviving Iraqi artists as they explore their national and artistic identities and respond to the cycles of violence caused by the Iran-Iraq war\, sanctions\, and occupation.

In the years immediately preceding the dam’s construction\, the American University in Cairo directed a large-scale project of salvage anthropology with funding from the Ford Foundation. \n\nThis endeavor yielded hundreds of photographs of al-nuba al-qadima or “Old Nubia” the term affectionately used by community members. Over the past sixty years\, Nubians have used these images to cultivate a collective memory of a lost homeland. From Aswan to Alexandria and beyond\, community members are salvaging their own stories from this anthropological archive\, reshaping it as a sentimental terrain of solidarity across time\, space\, and circumstance. \n\nThis selection of photographs includes persons\, places\, and practices as well as glimpses of the presence of the photographer and researchers. Both online and offline\, Egyptian Nubians continue to share and re-mediate these photos as they recall their historical displacement and revitalize their heritage for future generations.\n\nThe exhibit is curated by Yasmin Moll\, assistant professor of anthropology\, and coordinated by Nesrien Hamid\, doctoral student in anthropology\, with funding from the University of Michigan's Humanities Collaboratory.\n\nFor a deeper dive\, visit the companion exhibit\, Narrating Nubia\, at the Duderstadt Center on North Campus. It delves into the archaeological\, anthropological\, and community narratives of both ancient and modern-day Nubia spanning Egypt and Sudan.

Guardian Passage: The Power of Ukrainian Cultural Memory in the Face of War DESCRIPTION:*Presented in association with UMS*.\n\nIn Guardian Passage\, artists Irina Bondarenko and Katya Lisova employ the tools and imagery of traditional Ukrainian art forms to face down the existential threat brought about by Russia’s war on Ukraine. Bondarenko’s installation forms a causeway for visitors to encounter Ukrainian poetry and the art form of motanka dolls in a newly imagined configuration. Motanka are guardian symbols assembled from the clothes of deceased ancestors. Bondarenko’s ceramics illustrate motanka in situations responding to the war\; each graphic is accompanied by a poem or a song. These ceramics act as lifeboats\, which ferry the Ukrainian resistance through the flood waters of destruction. Lisova’s series of tapestries explore the power of cultural memory to grow in times of war. Traditional embroidery explodes on the surface of photo collage\, where images of the past and present collide on a single surface. Like a lifeline\, red thread connects these projects\, weaving through clay and fabric\, bringing tradition to bear on new significances and the cultural will to survive. This exhibition is part of the LSA theme semester on “Arts and Resistance.”\n\nIrina Bondarenko is an emerging ceramic artist\, a native of Ukraine\, and a biostatistician at the University of Michigan. Irina has been with the University of Michigan Biostatistics Department for more than 20 years. and published over 50 peer-reviewed articles. Along with her career at the School of Public Health\, for the last 10 years Irina has been pursuing her interest in ceramics. Her work was featured in over a dozen national shows\, the 24th San Angelo National Ceramic Competition\, and the “Strictly Functional Pottery National Show” in 2021 and 2022\, and\, most recently\, the Regional Biennial Juried Sculpture Exhibition at Marshall Fredericks Sculpture Museum.\n\nArtist website: https://www.ibondceramics.com/\n\nKatya Lisova is an artist\, designer\, and art historian. Born in Kyiv\, she is a graduate of the Institute of Decorative and Applied Arts and Design named after Mykhailo Boichuk (2009) and the National Academy of Cultural and Artistic Leaders (2018).

Tremel\, who teaches ceramics at the Penny W Stamps School of Art and Design\, describes her work in the following way:\n\n“My pots are made with a wooden paddle and round stone. They are slowly raised by beating\, turning\, and drying the clay repeatedly until the walls are thinly stretched and the form is filled with life. I pierce the fragile\, unfired walls of the vessel with a tapered tool and then painstakingly carve the holes with a thin blade. The piercings give visual access to the interior of the form and create a tension with the fragility of the ceramic material. When the pot is illuminated the light fills the vessel and physically embodies the energy that it contains. The piercings allow this energy to flow beyond the walls of the form and into the surrounding space. The soft patterns of light are an exhalation\, filling the dark room with a sense of quiet repose. I invite you to stop and take a breath.”\n\nThe public is invited to an opening reception for the artist on October 20\, from 4-6 pm\, and the public is invited.

Throughout the European Renaissance (1300-1700)\, many book illustrations were exclusively ornamental\, while others focused on enhancing the meaning of the text. However\, as the pages on display attest\, all these illustrations share a common ground: they reveal the aesthetic and intellectual fashions first proposed by Italian artists of the 1400s\, who were strongly committed to the recovery of the past of classical antiquity.\n\nThe word “Illumination\,” from the Latin illuminare\, “to enlighten or to illuminate\,” refers to the embellishment of a manuscript or early printed book with luminous colors\, notably gold and silver. This illumination was prominent in the frontispiece\, or first page of text\, which included the decoration of its borders and initial letter\, and even miniatures\, that is\, scenes with an independent narrative. With the introduction of movable-type printing in 1454\, these illuminations would be gradually replaced by woodcuts\, which were printed from a woodblock that had been cut by knife along the grain of the wood.\n\nAvailable during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://myumi.ch/2m7d4).\n\nJoin us on September 13 for a talk by Pablo Alvarez\, curator of the exhibit.

DESCRIPTION:Come explore the intricate and interlocking world of Sarah Buckius’ “!!!techn010ffspring!!!” where feminist art meets science and the history of invention. On view at Lane Hall as part of U-M Arts Initiative’s themed semester on Arts & Resistance\, “!!!techn010ffspring!!!” critiques the patriarchal paradigms of the STEM field by highlighting the history of women inventors. This exhibition brings conceptual invention in fine art and performance to the disciplines of information technology\, robotics\, and engineering. Buckius creates “technoffsprings”: complex machines that weave together the history of inventions related to the gendered labor of women\, especially regarding women’s social roles as caregivers and subjects of care themselves. \nTrained as an engineer and an artist\, Buckius’ machines are intentionally complex\, layered\, and illogical or absurdly logical. In the nature of women’s caregiving\, they teeter between order and chaos. Her “digital tinkerings” tell epic tales of motherhood\, technology\, female bodies\, and commerce—both personal and externalized through women’s inventions and early forays that bridged caregiving and commerce. Buckius' work proposes improvisation as a form of absurdist resistance to\, and alternative to\, patriarchal\, capitalist\, production-based\, and seemingly rational\, useful\, logical systems. \n“!!!techn010ffspring!!!” is open for viewing M-F\, 9am-4pm or by appointment. University of Michigan instructors can email LaneHallExhibits@umich.edu to request a group tour or schedule a class visit.\nThis project was made possible by a grant from the Arts Initiative at the University of Michigan and co-sponsored by U-M’s Department of Women’s and Gender Studies and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender with support from the Santa Cruz County Arts Council.

Finding support to navigate such situations is important\, yet challenging\, especially for early-career astronomers and underrepresented minorities. This contributes to the structural exclusion of those that experience or witness workplace incivility from our astronomy community. Here I suggest ten ways that departments\, institutes\, collaborations\, and conference organizers can improve support for astronomers that experience or witness workplace incivility. Session will be discussion based.

Located in the former Homestake gold mine in Lead\, South Dakota\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) houses experiments that give us a better understanding of the universe. The location—deep underground—provides a near-perfect environment for experiments that need to escape the constant bombardment of cosmic radiation\, which can interfere with the detection of rare physics events. Built in collaboration with the University of Michigan\, the LUX-Zeplin is the world’s most sensitive dark matter experiment. SURF also hosts experiments in biology\, geology and engineering.\n\nGina Gibson is an internationally exhibiting artist and professor of Graphic Design at Black Hills State University. In 2019\, Gibson became the first artist in residence at the Sanford Underground Research Facility. Gibson's work celebrates the search deep below the surface for beauty in the old and new\, the light and dark\, and the known and unknown.\n\nUN/EARTH was developed in collaboration with the U-M Department of Physics\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility and Black Hills State University.

Latent class models (LCMs) have been used to derive dietary patterns from dietary intake assessment\, where each class profile represents the probabilities of exposure to a set of diet components. However\, LCM-derived dietary patterns can exhibit strong similarities\, or weak separation\, resulting in numerical and inferential instabilities that challenge scientific interpretation. This issue is exacerbated in small-sized subpopulations. To address these issues\, we provide a simple solution that empowers LCMs to improve dietary pattern estimation. We develop a tree-regularized Bayesian LCM that shares statistical strength between dietary patterns to make better estimates using limited data. This is achieved via a Dirichlet diffusion tree process that specifies a prior distribution for the unknown tree over classes. Dietary patterns that share proximity to one another in the tree are shrunk towards ancestral dietary patterns a priori\, with the degree of shrinkage varying across pre-specified food groups. Using dietary intake data from the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos\, we apply the proposed approach to a sample of 496 US adults of South American ethnic background to identify and compare dietary patterns.\n\nhttps://zhenkewu.com/ UID:113640-21831298@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/113640 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:seminar LOCATION:West Hall - 340 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231004T094850 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231020T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231020T230000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Clements Bookworm: A Library Looks at Audubon\, Both His Birds and His Background DESCRIPTION:John James Audubon (1785-1851) was arguably the most famous artist/naturalist of the nineteenth century\, and his massive\, four-volume work\, The Birds of America (1827-1838)\, remains an exceptional achievement of avian art\, a rare and exceedingly valuable book now found mostly in major scholarly institutions and libraries\, including the University of Michigan. \n\nBy the twentieth century\, the name Audubon had become emblematic of bird appreciation and\, more broadly\, natural history\, and the National Audubon Society emerged as one of the most significant environmental organizations in the United States. \n\nIn recent years\, however--certainly since 2020--John James Audubon's personal background as a slaveholder and opponent of abolition has come to taint his reputation and create a problem of identity for the organization that bears his name. This talk discusses Audubon's legacy\, as both artist and racist\, inviting us to explore the connection between a brilliant but flawed figure and the continuing impact of his remarkable art.

The exhibition examines the Amistad Dam in Del Rio\, the largest dam in Rio Grande that is jointly managed by the United States and Mexico and other contested sites in the region to unravel layered histories\, connections\, and tensions present in West Texas through film\, sculpture\, installation\, collage\, and drawing. \nThe experimental documentary film Teaching of the Hands is the center point of the exhibition - as it combines oral histories\, reenactments\, and archival footage to narrate a complex history of colonization\, migration\, and ecological precarity\, Told from the perspective of Juan Mancias\, Chairman of the Carrizo Comecrudo Tribe of Texas\, scenes from the present day are woven together with those from 4\,000 years in the past to investigate the transformation of Somi Se’k* by way of industry\, infrastructure\, and private property. \nEmerging from the research to create the film\, the exhibition includes an immersive installation of surveying flags and tools\, series of drawings and collages\, and a collection of original watercolors from the 1930s by artists and amateur archaeologists Forrest and Lula Kirkland that depict the ancient rock art of the Lower Pecos\,that expand on concepts in The Teachings of the Hands. The watercolors\, rarely seen plein air paintings\, are on loan from the Texas Archaeological Research Laboratory at the University of Texas\, and document the original forms and vibrant colors of murals that were still visible in the 1930s before flooding\, erosion\, and human interaction damaged or destroyed them. This exhibition has been shown in various iterations at Ballroom Marfa\, the University of Texas at Austin\, the Rubin Center for the Visual Arts\, the Museum of Modern Art in New York and University of California\, Santa Barbara\, and will be shown in Michigan and the midwest for the first time. The Blessings of the Mystery brings together an expansive body of work that sheds light on vital histories\, living memories and Indigenous knowledge-systems embedded within the land well before the colonial boundaries between Mexico and the US were established - advocating for environmental justice and recognition of Indigenous rights and cosmologies.

When COVID took Tina’s life\, Taylor started ordering identical versions of their childhood games and toys on eBay. As she assembled these objects\, Taylor recalled a memory of climbing with Tina through the skeletal frameworks of unfinished houses in the 1970s. Late at night\, the girls would pick their way through floorless rooms and speculate about their future inhabitants. In this spirit of imaginative experimentation\, Taylor began taking apart her eBay acquisitions. Gathering\, breaking\, sawing\, splicing\, painting\, gluing\, layering\, and reassembling these toys became\, for her\, a way to probe the complicated nature of a lost friendship and to explore the multidimensional nature of grief. Ultimately\, Taylor built the framework of an unfinished house to evoke those she once explored with Tina. Taylor describes the house as a “container for grief.” \n\nSeptember 28 - October 27 \nOpening & Reception: September 28\, 1-3pm \nGalleryDAAS \n\nAbout this series of events: \nArt & Resistance Fall 2023 Theme Semester Programming \nSponsored by Arts Initiative\, UMMA\, American Culture\, Latina/o Studies\, the Department of Film\, Television and Media & the Museum Studies Program \nPresented by Charlotte Juergens\, 2nd year Ph.D. student in American Culture \nhttp://bit.ly/UMafterthought UID:112261-21828704@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/112261 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:american culture,Art,arts,arts at michigan,Arts Initiative,Culture,Department Of American Culture,Exhibition,Film,food,Free,Graduate,In Person,Latina/o Studies,Media,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Haven Hall - galleryDAAS CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231104T123159 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231020T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231020T143000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Business Case Interview Overview & Workshop + Recruiter Q&A DESCRIPTION:During this workshop\, we will walk through and practice a business case interview.

Two of the most essential skills needed to thrive are reading and writing. This new\, four-part Rackham/Sweetland workshop series will showcase reading and writing practices for new graduate students that will inform your approaches to reading and writing through the course of your graduate career.\n\nHow to Make Revision Count: Revising Practices for Graduate Students\n\nThis workshop will introduce new graduate students to revising practices to help them thrive in their academic writing.\n\nThe most critical phase in the writing process is also the most mysterious and untaught. Revision is especially challenging for first-year graduate writers learning to write extended arguments for academic purposes. What do academic writers do when they revise? How does an early draft become a polished\, publishable article? This workshop will demystify the role of revision in academic writing – to advance and refine our good ideas! – and provide strategies to help you build quality revision into your writing practice. You will expand your revising practices and elevate your writing game. \n\nPresenter: Louis Cicciarelli\, Sweetland Center for Writing UID:110447-21824925@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/110447 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Graduate,Graduate School,Graduate Students,Rackham,Writing LOCATION:North Quad - Space 2435 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230822T121542 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231020T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231020T140000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:How to Make Revision Count: Revising Practices for Graduate Students DESCRIPTION:This workshop will introduce new graduate students to revising practices to help them thrive in their academic writing.\nThe most critical phase in the writing process is also the most mysterious and untaught.

They are the central objects of interest in field theories and quantum computing and measured directly in experiment. Response functions are intrinsically causal. In equilibrium and steady-state systems\, they correspond to a positive spectral function in the frequency domain. This talk shows that response functions define an inner product on a Hilbert space and thereby induce a positive definite function. The properties of this function can be used to reduce noise in measured data and\, in equilibrium and steady state\, to construct positive definite extensions for data known on finite time intervals\, which are then guaranteed to correspond to positive spectra.

In this talk\, we answer a question of Stembridge on finding a permutation basis for the permutation representation this cohomology carries. Our method involves an S_n-equivariant bijection between a basis for the Chow ring of the Boolean matroid and codes introduced by Stembridge. There is a parallel binomial Eulerian story related to the stellahedral variety. We also find a permutation basis for the permutation representation on the cohomology of the stellahedral variety. This involves the augmented Chow ring of a matroid introduced by Braden\, Huh\, Matherne\, Proudfoot and Wang. Along the way\, we also obtain some new results on augmented Chow rings.

Analogously to the theory of divisors on curves\, we can define the divisor group and Picard group of a graph. These two theories are then related by the specialization map: a map from Pic(X) to Pic(G)\, where G is the dual graph of the special fiber of a certain model of X. We then give an example of how the combinatorics of the graph can be used to determine information about the original curve by computing the gonality of a generic bidegree (m\,n) curve on P1 x P1.

Over the years\, sixty two successive lava flows\; thirty-three from Gamarri\, and twenty-nine from Dobi cliffs respectively were sampled for paleomagnetism. The study at Gamarri revealed reverse-normal-reverse (R-N-R) polarity intervals with anomalous directions at the base. Paleointensity experiments showed two successive periods of low field intensity (<15μT lowest part of the section and ~20μT from upper flows with full normal polarity direction) separated by a brief period of field recovery. Original unspiked K/Ar age experiments made at five levels had given a mean age of 2.07±0.05 Ma for the entire section\, while a follow-up 40Ar/39Ar experiments gave ages ranging from 2.118±0.057 to 2.063±0.044 Ma for the normal polarity interval while an older age 2.34±0.092Ma for the bottom. Along the Dobi cliff\, ~50 Km NE of Gamarri\, only second volcanic record to compare with\, showed R-N-R-N polarity sequences from bottom to top with a striking similar anomalous direction at the base. K/Ar age determination of the normal polarity interval showed a mean age of 2.18±0.06 Ma for the top normal interval and attempts of K/Ar at the base was not successful. A “W” shaped paleointensity variations with unique extreme low mean value of 6.4μT and 3.6μT at the onset and end of the lower normal polarity interval was detected. 40Ar/39Ar experiments along a third section in Norhern Dobi (Iso-Dedai) gave a N-R sequence with a paleointensity mean values of 6.83±0.04μT\,and 40Ar/39Ar experiments on the sequence gave a mean 40Ar/39Ar age of 2.15±0.031Ma. The radio-isotopis ages in the three localities indicate the normal polarities identified have statistically different ages\, a result not supported by field geology and paleomagnetism. Hence the normal polarity identified at the three sections could be correlated with the Reunion event(s) using the available Geomagnetic Polarity Time Sclae (GPTS). This notion is supported by the independent magnetostratigraphic study at Omo Valley (southwest Ethiopia)\, where the well-dated Shungura Formations\, revealed the two Reunion events.

The National Laboratories have supported NASA’s mission for decades\, including the development of irradiation experiments\, testbeds\, modeling and simulation\, and so much more. Recently\, ORNL has worked closely with NASA on technology maturation for Nuclear Thermal Propulsion\, Fission Surface Power\, and Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generators. Instrumentation and controls are particularly difficult due to the extreme environment conditions including temperatures from cryogenic to >2000C. This presentation will discuss how ORNL is meeting the needs of technology maturation for Space Nuclear.\n \nBio\nDr. N. Dianne Bull Ezell is the group leader of the Nuclear and Extreme Environment Measurement Group\, in the Nuclear Energy and Fuel Cycle Division\, at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. She completed a Ph.D. in 2016 focusing on signal processing of EMI rejection for Johnson Noise Thermometry\, funded by the Small Modular Reactor Program. Her research interests are harsh environment experiments\, system architecture and integration\, advanced instrumentation development for nuclear systems\, and low-noise front-end rad-hard electronics. She has supported the Instrumentation and Controls technology maturation program under NASA’s Space Technology Mission Directorate in support of Space Nuclear Propulsion since 2018. Dianne became PI of the program at ORNL in 2022\, overseeing the development of a non-nuclear instrumentation and autonomous controls testbed user facility\, high-temperature irradiation testbed\, and dynamic system modeling and simulation of NTP integrated engine.

When the family receives news of an unexpected inheritance\, their hopes rise and they dream of a better life. However\, their newfound fortune soon proves illusory\, and their lives become entangled in a web of betrayal\, deceit\, and tragedy.\n\nWith humor and tragedy\, O’Casey depicts the harsh realities of life in a war-torn society and the impact of ideological divides within a single family. Of the first performances of DruidO’Casey in Galway\, Ireland in July\, The Arts Review observed\, “To see one of O’Casey’s classics is to be astonished at the manner in which he courageously articulated\, challenged\, and shared an emerging Ireland. To see all three together is to go deeper and ask how far have we traveled\, or failed to? Many of the questions raised by O’Casey prov[e] prescient\, and alas\, still relevant.”\n\nThis performance is part of Seán O’Casey’s Dublin Trilogy\, which includes The Plough and the Stars\, The Shadow of a Gunman\, and Juno and the Paycock.

Darrell has written some of the sharpest country songs of the 21st century (like the Dixie Chicks' \"Long Time Gone\")\, and he can play just about anything with strings. Darrell's song \"Hank Williams' Ghost\" was named Song of the Year at the 2007 Americana Music Awards. Darrell has toured with Robert Plant and The Zac Brown Band\, and\, as a singer\, songwriter\, and instrumentalist he's been an artist to whom many in Nashville turn for a shot of inspiration. His music features guitars (including lap and pedal steel)\, keyboards\, electric and acoustic bass\, harp\, bouzouki\, harmonium\, mandolin\, banjolin\, cello\, glockenspiel\, drums\, and various other percussion instruments. Darrell has two recent albums\, “Darrell Scott Sings the Blues of Hank Williams” and “Jaroso.”\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4215/4216 for more detail.

Registration is limited to 40 guests\, which allows everyone to have more time in the dome and at the telescope\, if weather permits observing. The event is built around a particular theme which links the history of the Observatory and the University to modern astronomy and observing the heavens.\n\nOctober's event will focus on the observatory's second director\, James Watson. During his time at the observatory\, Watson discovered 22 asteroids\, making him one of the most successful asteroid finders in history. This program includes a talk about Watson's journey to the 1878 solar eclipse to search for a new planet\, discussions on Watson's unique life story\, and demonstrations of the Henry Fitz refractor. If weather permits\, we will be observing some of the asteroids that Watson discovered using the Fitz refractor.\n\nPlease see our visit page (https://detroitobservatory.umich.edu/visit) for more info on parking and future programs.
