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.

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. William has held postdoctoral fellowships from\, among others\, the Leverhulme Trust and the Gerda Henkel Stiftung.

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.

Non-violent communication proposes that if people can identify their needs\, the needs of others\, and the feelings that surround these needs\, a resolution can be sought. For both LARA and non-violent communication\, role plays and scenarios can be integrated to help participants practice with these models of listening and responding.\n\nhttps://sessions.studentlife.umich.edu/track/event/session/67790 UID:113245-21830603@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/113245 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Dialogue,Diversity Equity and Inclusion,Education LOCATION:West Quadrangle - Multipurpose Room 1005 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230914T115819 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231019T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231019T190000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Dinner for Democracy: LGBTQ Policy DESCRIPTION:Sign up on Sessions: https://sessions.studentlife.umich.edu/manage/track/edit/6726/sessions\n\nJoin us for a presentation and discussion on LGBTQ Policy and how it relates to voting.

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). Since 2019 she has been teaching at the Kyiv State Academy of Decorative and Applied Arts and Design named after Mykhailo Boichuk. Her work is in the field of artistic textiles and digital graphics.

Such ARWs will not only significantly accelerate research\, but also enable new research possibilities.\n\nIn January\, 2023\, MIDAS organized an ARW mini-symposium. Experts who are leading this trend nationwide presented their vision and effort to develop and employ ARWs. U-M faculty members and the speakers also participated in intensive research roundtable discussions on the potential of ARWs in various research domains.\n\nThe upcoming mini-symposium will feature U-M faculty members who have developed and embedded AI-driven components in their research workflows. Their ingenious work will form the basis of faculty roundtable discussions focusing on identifying particularly impactful ways to employ AI in the research workflows\, developing plans and collaboration to build such AI-driven workflow components.\n\nAll are welcome to attend the featured speaker presentations. Faculty members who are interested in using ARWs for their research are strongly encouraged to also attend the research roundtable. Sign-up is strongly encouraged for both activities.\n\n*Please note that photography will be in use during this event.

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.

This conference seeks to not only channel the spirit of intellectual kinship D generously shared with us but to also create space for rigorous engagement with D’s central research questions. We have curated a day of learning that invites an interdisciplinary audience of critical thinkers to key questions related to Black queer kinship\, history\, and possibility.\n\nThe conference will bring together D’s beloved family and friends\, interdisciplinary scholars\, as well as U-M faculty\, graduate students\, and alumni who\, over the course of two days\, will reflect on D’s most catalytic research interests as well as their profound scholastic engagement with Black queer kinship.\n\nThis event will be livestreamed here: https://umich.zoom.us/my/bqkhconference\n\nConference Schedule:\nThursday\, October 19\nRackham Assembly Hall\n\n6:45 pm | Welcome + Degree Conferral Ceremony\nAngela Dillard\, LaKisha Simmons\n\n7:15 pm | Arts Showcase and Celebration\nAhya Simone\n\nFriday\, October 20\n1014 Tisch Hall\n\n10:00 am | Welcome + Conference Keynote\nDarius Bost\n\n11:00 am | Roundtable 1: Celebrating D as student\, friend and relative\nJennifer Jones\, Eshe Sherley\, M Aziz\, Casidy Campbell\n\n1:30 pm | Roundtable 2: Kinship & the Healing Work of Queer Theory\nSaraEllen Strongman\, Sydney Tunstall\, Mix Mann\, Mara Johnson\n\n3:15 pm | Roundtable 3: Current topics in Theory and Histories\nAndrea Bolivar\, LaVelle Ridley\, Cassius Adair\, Gabriel Johnson\n\n4:45 pm | Closing\nAnna Almore\, Adrian King UID:113825-21831793@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/113825 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Activism,African American,art,Center For Racial Justice,Department Of American Culture,Diversity Equity and Inclusion,gender,history,LGBT,poetry reading,Rackham,social impact,social justice LOCATION:Tisch Hall - 1014 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230220T131204 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231020T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231020T160000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Featured Exhibits DESCRIPTION:Featuring work by Gina Gibson\, UN/EARTH explores science and art from a mile underground. 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.

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.

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.

The Boyle family lives in squalor\, with Captain Jack’s laziness and alcoholism contributing to their financial struggles while his wife Juno works tirelessly to provide for the family. 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.

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.

Yet\, after decades in which the theory has been successfully used on an everyday basis\, most physicists would agree that we still don't truly understand what it means. I will talk about the source of this puzzlement and explain why an increasing number of physicists are led to an apparently astonishing conclusion: that the world we experience constantly branches into different versions\, representing the different possible outcomes of quantum measurements. This could have important consequences for quantum gravity and the emergence of spacetime.\n\nThe event will be in-person and also live-streamed on YouTube: https://myumi.ch/RpAG2 UID:111714-21827491@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/111714 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Astronomy,Basic Science,Biophysics,College Of Engineering,Complex Systems,Engineering,Faculty,Family,Free,Mathematics,Natural Sciences,Prospective Graduate Students,Prospective Undergraduate Students,Science,Staff,Undergrad Physics Events LOCATION:Weiser Hall - 170 & 182 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231215T073302 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231021T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231021T150000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Investigate Labs DESCRIPTION:Step into our two Investigate Labs\, where you can use scientific tools and museum specimens to answer questions and solve problems.

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:112261-21828705@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:20230907T115157 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231021T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231021T160000 SUMMARY:Performance:DruidO’Casey: The Plough and the Stars DESCRIPTION:Sean O’Casey’s The Plough and the Stars is a gripping portrayal of the 1916 Easter Rising in Dublin\, Ireland\, a six-day conflict led by Irish Republicans who were attempting to establish an independent Ireland while the British were preoccupied by World War I. 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.

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 Boyle family lives in squalor\, with Captain Jack’s laziness and alcoholism contributing to their financial struggles while his wife Juno works tirelessly to provide for the family. 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.

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.

From its inception\, the U-M Herbarium has cataloged and described plants—both poisonous and beneficial to human health—and still serves that role today. See specimens of these plant and fungal “friends” and “foes” from the U-M Herbarium collection and learn about how the collection is used for drug discovery today.

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.

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:112261-21828706@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:20231022T122046 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231022T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231022T150000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:IGR/Model United Nations at UM 10/22/2023 (CommonGround) DESCRIPTION: UID:113045-21829960@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/113045 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Sessions LOCATION: CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231022T120022 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231022T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231022T150000 SUMMARY:Other:Karate Practice DESCRIPTION:New members are always welcome.

The White Crane of Alagśa: Lost Lives of the Sixth Dalai Lama in Mongolia DESCRIPTION:The Sixth Dalai Lama Tsangyang Gyatso (1683-1706/46) was recognized in secrecy\, lived in controversy\, and passed out of history in mystery. The popular tradition holds that he died whilst travelling to Beijing. Yet in some parts of Mongolia\, it is believed that the exiled Sixth Dalai Lama escaped his captors and lived out his life in the Gobi desert region of Alagśa\, Inner Mongolia. To this day\, the figure of the Sixth Dalai Lama still serves as a central pillar of Alagśan identity\, Buddhist faith\, and cultural pride among the local Mongolian population. \n\nBased on new materials in the form of oral histories\, local legends\, folk songs\, poems\, and textual sources that I collected about the Sixth Dalai Lama in Alagśa during a research trip in 2019\, this paper will explore the formation of religio-cultural identity and the invention of tradition in the Alagśa since the early eighteenth century. These developments centered the Sixth Dalai Lama\, and the narratives are often based on local understandings of the earlier interfaces between the Mongols and the successive incarnations of the Dalai Lama and their regents. This is not a paper that tries to solve the mystery of Tsangyang Gyatso’s death\, but rather\, one that explores the role he played for the Alagśa Mongols in creating authentic narratives of identity and archetypes of sacredness. This is a story of how Tsangyang Gyatso\, his identities\, and his interpersonal relationships were reborn in Alagśa and went on to transcend multiple lifetimes and traverse the geopolitical spheres of the cosmopolitan Buddhist world that spanned the Himalayas\, Inner Asia\, and the Qing.\n\nYou can email telf@umich.edu for a registration link.

With their playful and perfect interplay\, they seem to defy the laws of physics in what appears to be a telepathic communication. The music is intense and full of humor. They create their very own musical language which in its appeal is as modern as it is ancient. With the foundation firmly rooted in the traditional music of Uppland\, they have always looked curiously at new musical goals. Olov & Micke have played together since 1983 when they met at Oktoberstämman in Uppsala and discovered that they had a large common repertoire and a similar way of playing. They perform on a variety of stringed instruments\, including kontrabasharpa\, oktavharpa\, three-rowed nyckelharpa\, violoncello da spalla and a blue electric base-viola. Väsen comes to Michigan with a new album\, “Melliken.” \n\n\nHawktail (formerly Haas Kowert Tice) brings together musicians you've heard in a dozen other places into an exciting new combination! Fiddler Brittany Haas was a member of Crooked Still and is a fixture on Chris Thile's \"Live from Here\" radio shows. Bassist Paul Kowert is a longtime member of Punch Brothers and has also been active in classical music. Guitarist Jordan Tice grew up in bluegrass and has played with The Dave Rawlings Music Machine. And mandolinist Dominick Leslie has studied with Thile\, Mike Marshall\, and David Grisman\, and has performed with Noam Pikelny & Friends and other bands. Put it together\, and you have a band that can range across genres and recombine them with ease\, imagination\, and brilliant virtuosity. Hawktail comes to Michigan with a new release\, “Place of Growth.”\n \nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4239/4240 for more detail.

The unique styles of five composers create a dynamic auditory experience that is at times classical\, jazzy\, broadway\, funny\, serious\, and alarming but always engaging and unexpected. \n\nThis project was funded by The Presser Foundation\, the National Center for Institutional Diversity\, the Center for World Performance Studies\, and the University of Michigan EXCEL Lab. \n\nABOUT THE GUEST ARTIST\n\nSMTD alumna SAMANTHA ROSE WILLIAMS is an arts activist committed to sharing marginalized experiences with diverse audiences and creating space for critical discussion about art\, culture\, and social change. After earning her B.A. at Stanford University\, Samantha went on to receive her Master’s in Music and Specialist’s in Music at the University of Michigan in Voice Performance. \n\nAn accomplished performer in both musical theater and opera\, a researcher\, and arts leader\, Samantha began producing to share nuanced stories of people of all backgrounds and beliefs. In recognition of her impactful work as a producer\, Samantha was awarded the University of Michigan’s 2022 Graduate DEI Award\, the 2021 MLK Spirit Award\, and served as a panelist in SphinxConnect 2021’s session on youth activism.\n\n*This performance and residency was made possible by a grant from the Arts Initiative at the University of Michigan.* UID:113056-21829972@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/113056 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Culture,Diversity,Diversity Equity and Inclusion,Free,In Person,Interdisciplinary,Music,North Campus,Social Impact,Storytelling,Talk LOCATION:Earl V.

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). Since 2019 she has been teaching at the Kyiv State Academy of Decorative and Applied Arts and Design named after Mykhailo Boichuk. Her work is in the field of artistic textiles and digital graphics. She is also the art director of the “Ukrainian Unofficial” research project\, which compiles archives of Ukrainian unofficial art of the second half of the twentieth century.\n\nArtist website: https://www.flickr.com/photos/196914550@N02/albums\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

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.

Clements Library\, edited by former library director John Dann. This exhibit—and its expanded online version—pairs items from 101 Treasures with related items that have for the most part been acquired since 1998. Those that were acquired earlier are items about which we’ve learned new things in the intervening 25 years.

First\, in 2008\, the United Arab Emirates took control of Manchester City F.C. and transformed the club into a multiple English\, and now European champion\, the key asset in a group of twelve clubs in five continents\; then Qatar\, having controversially won the right to host the 2022 World Cup\, purchased French giant Paris Saint-Germain F.C. (PSG)\; and now\, Saudi Arabia is on the way to eclipse both\, having spent hundreds of millions recruiting some of the sport's most famous names for its state-run and owned national league and clubs\; and Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA)\, enjoying a uniquely close relationship with world governing body FIFA\, is now seen as favorite to hold the 2034 World Cup. The acquisition of 'soft power' is routinely presented as the key reason behind these countries' unprecedented investment in football\, as football enables them to burnish/re-define their global image and 'sportswash' their dreadful human rights record. While this is true\, this doesn't tell the whole story. All three countries have applied different strategies and have distinct objectives\, all of them geo-political rather than reputational in nature. What unites all three projects is not 'soft power'\, but power itself\, on a regional but also\, in the case of Saudi Arabia\, global level. There is nothing 'soft' about this\, even if the rest of the world has so far failed to recognize this essential difference.\n\nFootball writer\, broadcaster\, and investigative journalist Philippe Auclair has been France Football's England correspondent since 1999. He is the England football correspondent for Eurosport.fr\, Europe 1\, Radio France Internationale\, and Swiss national radio RTS\, and a regular contributor to the Guardian Football Weekly (UK) podcast\, for which he specializes in governance issues and the geopolitical dimension of football. His investigations have been published by Josimar magazine and on the websites of the Arabic and African services of the BBC. His biography of Eric Cantona\, *The Rebel Who Would Be King*\, was voted 'Football Book of the Year' in both France and the UK\, and he won France's 'Scoop Of The Year' award for his investigation into the 'Qatargate' dossier\, to which he also devoted two books\, published in France and Belgium in 2015 and 2022. He has recently been investigating the sports betting industry as part of a multinational team that won the Investigative Journalism For Europe's Impact Award in 2023.\n \n He recently published on the topic\, which he will expand on in his lecture.

Yet many low-income households face severe challenges in maintaining stable housing. In this paper we examine the impact of the 2021 temporary expansion to the Child Tax Credit (CTC) on the living arrangements and housing affordability of families with low incomes. We employ a parameterized difference-in-differences method and use national data from a sample of parents who are receiving\, or recently received\, Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits (N~20\,500). We find that the monthly CTC is associated with a higher likelihood that parents reported a change in their living arrangements as well as reduced household size\, an effect largely driven by fewer mothers living with a partner (and not a reduction in doubling up). We also find that the credit reduced parents’ likelihood of reporting potential moves due to difficulties affording rent/mortgages as well as the amount and incidence of back-owed rent/mortgages. We find some differences in effects by race and ethnicity and income. Our findings illustrate how the monthly credit allowed parents to gain residential independence from partners\, reduce the number of people residing in their household\, and reduce their past-due rent/mortgage.\n\nNatasha Pilkauskas is an Associate Professor of Public Policy at the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy at the University of Michigan. Pilkauskas’ research considers how demographic\, social safety net\, and economic shifts in the U.S. affect low-income families with children. Specifically\, her work examines children’s shared living arrangements\, economic insecurity among vulnerable populations\, and the effects of cash transfers\, such as tax credits\, on low-income families. Much of Pilkauskas’ research focuses on early childhood\, a time when poverty and instability are known to have long-lasting detrimental effects on children’s health and development\, and when social policies have been shown to have some of the strongest impacts on improving children’s life chances. Pilkauskas holds a Ph.D. in social welfare policy from Columbia University\, a Masters in Public Policy from Harvard University and a B.A in Economics and Sociology from Northwestern University.\n\nJoin us in person at ISR (Thompson Street) Room 1430.\n\nOr online: Join Zoom Meeting\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/95418610585?pwd=Z0cvdkF1T0R2cG1lRDEvVmlnbVdlZz09\n\nMeeting ID: 954 1861 0585\nPasscode: 818420\nOne tap mobile\n+13017158592\,\,95418610585# US (Washington DC)\n+13092053325\,\,95418610585# US UID:109981-21823499@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/109981 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,Poverty,Public Policy,Social Sciences,Sociology LOCATION:Institute For Social Research - 1430 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231020T162709 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231023T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231023T133000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social Movements Workshop DESCRIPTION:Join us for this Social Movements Workshop\, \"Strategic Identity Disclosure: Competitive Positioning on Owner Social Identity\,\" with Kyle McCullers.

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:112261-21828707@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:20231107T063255 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231023T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231023T140000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Samantha Williams: \"American Patriots\" LSA guest lecture DESCRIPTION:American Culture 374/History 374\n \nThe Politics and Culture of the \"Sixties\" --- The current debate over the Sixties and the history of that decade mirror the very essence of American Culture.

This correlation is extremely important for cosmological and astrophysical analyses\, as it enables us to impose precise constraints on critical physical parameters governing the impact of baryonic effects on the matter power spectrum. Specifically\, we obtain strong bounds for the parameter describing the average mass of haloes at which feedback mechanisms have expelled half of their gas content\, \log_{10}(M_c/M_\odot). I will explain the data sets used\, the theoretical models considered and conclude with our results and steps for future analyses.

This was proved in two papers by Baik and Lee\, for all non-critical temperatures. The case of critical temperature was recently computed for the SSK model in two separate papers\, one by Landon and the other by Johnstone\, Klochkov\, Onatski and Pavlyshyn. In this talk\, we will discuss the critical temperature result for the bipartite SSK model. In particular\, we study the free energy fluctuations when the temperature is in a window of size $n^{-1/3}\sqrt{\log n}$ around the critical temperature\, the same window for the SSK model. Within this transitional window\, the asymptotic fluctuations of the free energy are the sum of independent Gaussian and Tracy--Widom random variables. \n\nThe talk is based on joint work with Elizabeth Collins-Woodfin.

Martha\, and her\, “worry and distraction” have been villainized by a long interpretive tradition\, making her out to be the poster child for the cares of the material world. Mary has been championed as the model of prayer\, spirituality\, contemplation\, monastic life\, and even as the earthly embodiment of heavenly life. Mary and Martha have been put in a competition\, and Martha always loses. Much of the recent Feminist and Womanist scholarly conversation around Mary and Martha in Luke 10 has turned upon the nature of Martha’s work\, largely under the influence of the history of interpretation of the passage. The crux of the passage\, however\, hinges not on whether Martha was in the kitchen or doing ministry\, but on her labor dispute and Jesus’ response. In order to undermine that millennia old tradition of using the disabled body as something to “think with\,” I will contextualize Martha’s “worry and distraction” with respect to her servile labor\, and the need to manage “many things.” I will draw upon ancient medical literature\, philosophical texts\, and narratives that describe worried\, effeminate and enslaved bodies in order to demonstrate the ties between the female body\, worry\, anxiety\, and enslaved labor in antiquity. In antiquity Martha’s worry was the expected consequence of the labor that was assigned to women and enslaved persons. In this regard Luke’s gospel is using Martha’s body to “think with\,” but Martha’s worry is not a spiritual deficit\, it is the disability that is manufactured by unjust labor structures that purposefully assign worry to some bodies and not others.

The approaches to defining bacterial sRNAs and their targets have dramatically improved since the screens that first identified many of them over 20 years ago. Current tools provide a global view of Hfq-binding RNAs that suggests increasingly interwoven regulatory networks\, helping cell respond appropriately to stress and host interactions. On-switches for sRNAs are primarily at the level of transcription\; when transcription ceases\, most of the sRNAs are used stoichiometrically\, being degraded as they are used\, providing an effective Off-switch for sRNA regulation. We have used genetic screens to identify novel regulators of both Hfq and the sRNAs. One of these\, HqbA\, binds directly to the distal face of Hfq\, and competes with weakly binding RNAs for association with Hfq\, suggesting it is a new quality control regulator for Hfq. Data suggests that this is a bifunctional protein\, directly regulating Hfq by protein-protein interaction and regulating other processes independently of Hfq. HqbA\, along with other factors\, help to ensure appropriate hierarchy of sRNA function.\n\n\nKeywords: mRNA translation\; RNAse E\; Escherichia coli.

Count me in: how quantification shapes knowledge politics in contemporary higher education DESCRIPTION:How is knowledge organized in higher education? In recent decades\, the adoption of market-oriented logics within institutions of research and higher education had notable implications on how the pursuit of knowledge is shaped and rewarded. As documented by a number of authors\, for example\, the \"commercialization of science\" had consequences on the quality of knowledge produced in particular research setting. Backed by distinct cultures of quantification and tied to concrete devices measurement and commensuration\, the broader audit cultures that embed modern research effectively shape what we know and can know. In this talk\, I explore instances of these cultures by looking into the role of research assessments and budget models as mechanisms for shaping and regulating how universities structure their instructional and research operations. Focusing on recent models of research evaluation and budgeting\, this talk shows how several techniques of quantification become important for implementing change in higher education with long-lasting consequences for the distribution of knowledge\, the organization of the sciences\, and the structure of the public sphere.\n\nJuan Pablo Pardo-Guerra is an Associate Professor in Sociology at the University of California\, San Diego and Director of the Latin American Studies Program.

To identify causal effects\, we use employer-employee matched federal tax records and an event study design comparing similarly-sized firms in the same industry that faced divergent tax changes due to their pre-existing legal status. Reductions in marginal income tax rates cause increases in sales\, profits\, investment\, and employment\, with responses driven by firms in capital-intensive industries. Workers’ earnings gains are concentrated in executive pay and in the top 10% of the within-firm income distribution\, while workers in the bottom 90% of the distribution see no change in earnings. Interpreted through the lens of a stylized model\, our estimates imply that a $1 marginal reduction in corporate tax revenue generates an additional $0.10 in output\, with 78% of gains flowing to the top 10% of the income distribution.

This property in particular gives an upper bound on the size of semi-simple groups (i.e. those with no non-trivial normal abelian subgroups) acting faithfully on n-dimensional complex Fano varieties\, and this bound only depends on n. In this talk\, we investigate the consequences of an action by a particular semi-simple group: the symmetric group. This work is joint with Louis Esser and Joaquín Moraga.

Voted Guitarist of the Decade by Guitarist magazine and Best Acoustic Fingerstylist four years in a row by readers of Guitar Player\, Adrian Legg dazzles audiences with an unclassifiable mixture of country\, jazz\, folk\, rock\, and classical styles. For all his rapid-fire playing\, though\, Adrian never loses sight of melodies and their power to move us. And on top of that\, he's a tall tale teller of the first order\, with a dry sense of humor that would be reason enough in itself to come to one of his concerts. Says Newsday: \"Unlike Richard Thompson or Robert Fripp\, in whose league he belongs\, Legg seems never to have been seduced by rock. But unlike Leo Kottke or Ry Cooder\, whom he also occasionally resembles\, Adrian Legg is an adventurer\, not an archivist.\" He is\, quite simply\, one of the greatest guitarists in the world\, and perhaps the very least heralded among that group.\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4271/4272 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). Since 2019 she has been teaching at the Kyiv State Academy of Decorative and Applied Arts and Design named after Mykhailo Boichuk. Her work is in the field of artistic textiles and digital graphics.

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.

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.

We have carefully curated a collection of audio samples\, including names of people who played a part in this significant chapter of history (abolitionists\, conductors\, and freedom seekers)\, as well as snippets of music that represent the URR. The installation aims to immerse the audience in the aural experience and engage them in interaction. \n\nJoin us anytime October 24-28\, 12-7pm. (Closed when raining.) \n\nThe installation involves utilizing a remote-controlled boat on the Music Pond. We developed a project workflow that treats the pond as a navigational 'map.' Within the pond\, we've designated specific locations such that when the remote control boat passes over them\, it activates one of the audio samples from our collection. This approach enables active audience participation\, with individuals taking control of the boat\, effectively making the audience an integral component of our installation. \n\nWe believe that leveraging the Music Pond\, a shared space for many within the SMTD community\, and to actively involve the audience will encourage people to explore and wonder about the installation. It presents a valuable opportunity for visitors to reflect on the Underground Railroad (maybe even plant a seed)\, take a moment to honor the individuals who played a role in this historical chapter\, and contemplate its significance.\n\n*This event is supported by the Arts & Resistance Theme Semester.* UID:114164-21832423@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114164 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Diversity,Free,In Person,Interdisciplinary,Media,Music,North Campus,Social Impact LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231024T112045 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231024T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231024T133000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:SPH DEI Fall Event: DEI 2.0 Strategic Plan Rollout DESCRIPTION:Join the SPH DEI Team and your SPH community for the launch of SPH’s new DEI 2.0 strategic plan!

Faculty fellows at the Institute for the Humanities will discuss a part of their current project in a short talk followed by a Q & A session. \n\nAbout this talk:\nThis talk explores how risk was transformed from being understood as a property of groups to being understood as a property of individuals by examining the history of public and private insurance in the United States. Rather than seeing this change as the product of the \"great risk shift\" that occurred with the emergence of neoliberalism\, my account suggests that the individualization of risk in recent decades is only the latest instantiation of a recurrent conflict between security and freedom that has marked the evolution of capitalism. Seen from this longer historical perspective\, the \"personal responsibility revolution\" appears not as the handiwork of neoliberal policymakers\, but rather as the unintended result of social movements that contested discriminatory practices in insurance markets.\n\nAbout Greta Krippner:\nGreta Krippner is a 2023-24 John Rich Faculty Fellow at the Institute for the Humanities and associate professor\, Sociology.

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:112261-21828708@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:20230810T122959 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231024T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231024T143000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Ginsberg Center’s Community Engagement @ Michigan Series 2023-2024 DESCRIPTION:Ginsberg Center’s Community Engagement @ Michigan Series for faculty & staff addresses critical topics in community-engaged teaching and learning\, research\, scholarship\, and program/project development.

These polychromatic spectacles offer a diversity of colors and scintillating delights\, though they fail to acknowledge––by their very design––how they also perpetuate historically entrenched legacies of chromophobia. This talk responds to this odd contradiction by leaping backwards in time\, to analyze the tensions and power struggles in the history of illuminated light in the American city in the late-nineteenth and early twentieth-centuries. The polemic between old world (European) whiteness and the explosive colors that mark America's twentieth-century “white imaginary” are charted through an archaeological critique of early advertising\, photography\, and the development of electric palettes for large-scale illuminated signs. By zeroing in on the “White City” at Chicago’s 1893 Columbian World’s Fair\, and New York City’s “Great White Way” in the 1910s-1930s\, Carolyn Kane argues that a new training ground was forged for the American subject\, engendering a unique brand of spectatorship rooted in visual possession by way of spectacle-based consumption.Carolyn L.

He has graciously agreed to speak about his recent book\, *The Colonial Origins of Modern Social Thought: French Sociology and the Overseas Empire* (Princeton University Press\, 2023).\n\nProf. Steinmetz will join us on Tuesday\, October 24\, 2023\, from 3:00 PM – 5:00 PM at 1014 Tisch. The EHW will serve light refreshments. The professor’s talk will be followed by discussant commentary from the EHW’s co-coordinators\, Keanu Heydari and Paige Newhouse\, and then will open to questions and comments from workshop participants.\n\nFrom the publisher: “In this provocative and original retelling of the history of French social thought\, George Steinmetz places the history and development of modern French sociology in the context of the French empire after World War II. Connecting the rise of all the social sciences with efforts by France and other imperial powers to consolidate control over their crisis-ridden colonies\, Steinmetz argues that colonial research represented a crucial core of the renascent academic discipline of sociology\, especially between the late 1930s and the 1960s. Sociologists\, who became favored partners of colonial governments\, were asked to apply their expertise to such “social problems” as detribalization\, urbanization\, poverty\, and labor migration. This colonial orientation permeated all the major subfields of sociological research\, Steinmetz contends\, and is at the center of the work of four influential scholars: Raymond Aron\, Jacques Berque\, Georges Balandier\, and Pierre Bourdieu.” UID:113721-21831507@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/113721 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:European,Free,Graduate,Graduate School,Graduate Students,History,Humanities,Social Sciences,Sociology,Talk LOCATION:Tisch Hall - 1014 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231108T123242 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231024T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231024T160000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:HHS OGC Virtual Career Information Session (10/24/2023 3pm EST) DESCRIPTION:Virtual Career Information Session Information. \nJoin us for virtual career information sessions.

In this geometry\, the micromotion can only be minimized in the axial direction\, transverse to the crystal plane. The in-plane micromotion is unavoidable\, its amplitude increasing linearly with distance from the trap center. Thus\, different ions in a large crystal experience different micromotion amplitudes\, and different Doppler shifts\, making traditional laser cooling techniques inefficient. We explored two avenues towards improving the laser cooling efficiency: the two-tone laser cooling and the micromotion-synchronized pulsed Doppler cooling\, allowing us to stabilize larger 2-d crystals than with the traditional Doppler cooling.\n\nThese experiments were enabled in part by the novel imaging system based on a CMOS camera that allows 1.5 ns temporal resolution of single photon detection. Direct observation of the trapped ion micromotion is attainable with this camera\, leading to a simplified way of micromotion detection and compensation. We also demonstrated how this camera can be used for robust\, low crosstalk detection of a trapped Ba+ ion qubit register\, with average single-qubit detection error of 4.2(1.5) ppm and a four-qubit state detection error of 17(2) ppm\, limited by the decay lifetime of the qubit.

In my lab’s research\, we seek to understand how visual regions index aspects of priority based on image-computable stimulus salience and an observer’s behavioral goals. To accomplish this goal\, we develop and apply computational neuroimaging methods to reconstruct and quantify population-level neural representations and assay predictive models of neural encoding. In this talk\, I will describe the methods we’ve developed\, and show results from several key empirical tests of priority map theory establishing how different retinotopic visual regions in human cortex differentially compute priority maps based on stimulus properties (luminance contrast\; salience-defining feature) and task demands (behaviorally-relevant location or feature). Additionally\, based on data acquired in the absence of visual stimulation\, I will show how Bayesian generative models can be used to show how activation patterns in these priority maps support performance on tasks requiring visual working memory. Overall\, I hope to convince you that these results support a theoretical framework whereby visual spatial cognition can be understood as operating via multiple interacting neural priority maps\, with different regions preferentially indexing stimulus and task-related aspects of priority. \n\n\n\n\n*Light refreshments will be served.

But \"divine image\" traditions rest on a troubling intellectual history\, one that traffics in human exceptionalism\, anthropocentrism\, and intense ableism. This talk critically examines that complex history and imagines richer alternatives\, showing how queer\, feminist\, and ecologically-informed disability wisdom can catalyze a radical recognition of the sacred among human\, animal\, and earthy kin.\n\nAbout Julia:\n\nJulia Watts Belser (she/her) is professor of Jewish Studies at Georgetown University and core faculty in Georgetown’s Disability Studies program\, as well as a rabbi and longtime activist for disability and gender justice. Her research centers on gender\, sexuality\, and disability in rabbinic literature\; she also brings classical Jewish texts into conversation with disability studies\, feminist and queer theory\, and environmental justice. She is the author of several scholarly books\, including Rabbinic Tales of Destruction: Gender\, Sex\, and Disability in the Ruins of Jerusalem (Oxford University Press\, 2018).

Making Sense of the 2023 Thai Elections DESCRIPTION:The 2023 General Election in Thailand resulted in an unexpected victory for the progressive Move Forward Party\, ending both General Prayut Chan-o-cha's nine-year premiership and two decades of electoral dominance at the ballot box by parties aligned with former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra. However\, the complex political maneuvering that followed produced a major political realignment that brought former foes into a partnership while dashing Move Forward's hopes of forming a government. Professor Allen Hicken (University of Michigan)\, Professor Kanokrat Lertchoosakul (Chulalongkorn University and Harvard-Yenching Insititute) and Mathis Lohatepanont (University of Michigan) will analyze the circumstances that led to this election result and immediate outlook for both the new Srettha Thavisin government and Thailand's political system.

The struggle initiated under the leadership of Leon Trotsky proved that there was a socialist alternative to Stalinism and that there is a socialist alternative to capitalism today.\n\nThe centenary acquires immense significance in the present world situation. In this period of capitalist breakdown\, imperialist war\, and mounting struggles of the international working class\, the ideas and principles fought for by Trotsky remain vital for the building of a socialist movement today. \n\nAbout the event speaker: David North’s activity in the international workers and Trotskyist movement\, as a revolutionary journalist\, historian and political leader\, spans over a half century. He has written multiple books on the life and work of Leon Trotsky\, is presently the chairman of the Socialist Equality Party in the United States\, and has served as the chairman of the International Editorial Board of the World Socialist Web Site (WSWS).\n\nN95 Masks Required: The IYSSE takes the pandemic seriously and aims to minimize risk of COVID transmission with the ongoing surge.

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:112799-21829572@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/112799 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION:Mason Hall CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231109T003210 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231025T073000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231025T210000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:University of Michigan McKinsey Information Session DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan recruiting team at McKinsey is excited to invite you to join us for a virtual information session aimed to help you learn more about who we are\, what we do\, and how you can make your own McKinsey.

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). Since 2019 she has been teaching at the Kyiv State Academy of Decorative and Applied Arts and Design named after Mykhailo Boichuk. Her work is in the field of artistic textiles and digital graphics.

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.

People worldwide enjoy sharing a good story as much as listening to one. In this hands-on workshop\, led by Stamps School of Art & Design associate professor Kelly Murdoch-Kitt and her research partner\, Dr. Denielle Emans (Roger Williams University)\, you’ll learn how to use a specific visual storytelling activity\, The Picture Story Shuffle.\n\nThis activity harnesses the inclusive power of visual thinking to help teams move beyond surface-level small talk and enable them to tap into each other’s perspectives in a tangible\, interactive way. Visual thinking is the process of translating thoughts or ideas into pictures\, diagrams\, or other visual forms. Creating\, sharing\, and interpreting visual narratives centers participants’ backgrounds and experiences by giving them visual form. Join us and members of our research team\, ORBIT Labs\, to learn firsthand how the Picture Story Shuffle has helped classmates\, teammates\, officemates\, and conference attendees get to know each other better\, share a laugh\, and reveal the potential for visual thinking and storytelling to enhance how we work and communicate.

DESCRIPTION:We consider asymptotic observables in quantum field theories in which the S-matrix makes sense. We argue that in addition to scattering amplitudes\, a whole compendium of inclusive observables exists where the time ordering is relaxed. These include expectation values of electromagnetic or gravitational radiation fields as well as out-of-time-order amplitudes. We explain how to calculate them in different ways: by relating them to amplitudes and products of amplitudes and by using a generalization of the LSZ reduction formula. Finally\, we discuss how to relate them to one another through new versions of crossing symmetry. As an application\, we discuss one-loop contributions to gravitational radiation in the post-Minkowski expansion\, emphasizing the role of classical cut contributions and highlighting the infrared physics of in-in observables.

A computable invariant of words in groups that does not vanish on k-fold commutators will help. For free groups this is achieved by Fox calculus\, whose geometric applications include Milnor invariants of links\, and there are generalizations for braid groups and RAAGs\, but beyond that little is known. We introduce a complete and computable collection of such invariants for any group\, using the algebraic Bar construction. Consequences of this theory include nonvanishing of mod p Massey products for finite groups\, and a dual version of the Johnson homomorphism defined for automorphisms of arbitrary groups.

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.

The Zoom call will be locked 10 minutes after the start of the presentation. \n\nInvestigating the quality of digital trace and data donation\n\nChallenges to traditional survey data collection such as increased costs and decreasing non-response are leading survey researchers to explore new forms of data. Recently\, two types of data have received increased focus as a possible replacements or enhancements of surveys: digital trace data and data donation. Digital trace data refers to data produced while individuals interact with digital platforms\, such as apps and websites. Data donation\, on the other hand\, refers to the acquisition of data from online platforms\, such as Facebook or Google\, directly from users. In a recent study we use an experimental design in a non-probability panel in Germany to explore non-response bias in data donated from Facebook as well measurement error in digital trace data from PCs and mobile phones.\n \nAlexandru Cernat is an associate professor in the social statistics department at the University of Manchester. He has a PhD in survey methodology from the University of Essex and was a post-doc at the National Centre for Research Methods and the Cathie Marsh Institute.

We have carefully curated a collection of audio samples\, including names of people who played a part in this significant chapter of history (abolitionists\, conductors\, and freedom seekers)\, as well as snippets of music that represent the URR. The installation aims to immerse the audience in the aural experience and engage them in interaction. \n\nJoin us anytime October 24-28\, 12-7pm. (Closed when raining.) \n\nThe installation involves utilizing a remote-controlled boat on the Music Pond. We developed a project workflow that treats the pond as a navigational 'map.' Within the pond\, we've designated specific locations such that when the remote control boat passes over them\, it activates one of the audio samples from our collection. This approach enables active audience participation\, with individuals taking control of the boat\, effectively making the audience an integral component of our installation. \n\nWe believe that leveraging the Music Pond\, a shared space for many within the SMTD community\, and to actively involve the audience will encourage people to explore and wonder about the installation. It presents a valuable opportunity for visitors to reflect on the Underground Railroad (maybe even plant a seed)\, take a moment to honor the individuals who played a role in this historical chapter\, and contemplate its significance.\n\n*This event is supported by the Arts & Resistance Theme Semester.* UID:114165-21832424@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114165 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Diversity,Free,In Person,Interdisciplinary,Media,Music,North Campus,Social Impact LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231109T063218 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231025T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231025T124500 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Speaker Series: Dennis Bartow DESCRIPTION:Join our virtual presentation\, scheduled on Wednesday October25th at 12:00pm EST.

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.

A countable Borel equivalence relation (CBER) is an equivalence relation on a Polish space which is Borel (as a set of pairs) and such that all of its equivalence classes are countable. Of particular interest is the class of hyperfinite CBERs\, that is\, those which are classified by the group of integers. It is known that a CBER is hyperfinite if it is classified by a locally compact Polish abelian group\, and Hjorth conjectured that this should hold for any Polish abelian group. Recently\, Allison refuted this conjecture by showing that every treeable CBER is classified by a Polish abelian group (there are treeable CBERs which are not hyperfinite\, such as the free part of the Bernoulli shift of a non-abelian free group). We extend Allison's methods to show that in fact\, every CBER is classified by a Polish abelian group. This is joint with Josh Frisch.

We conducted a study of nearly 4000 eighth-grade students attending 114 public and private schools in the western Chitwan Valley of Nepal. In this study\, we measured students’ academic achievement at the beginning and end of eighth grade\, collected data from students’ families\, and used multiple methods to measure governance arrangements and instructional practices at schools. We find that public and private schools in the study did indeed engage in different governance practices. However\, we found that governance practices in schools were unrelated to instructional practices in schools\, even though some of the instructional practices we measured were positively associated with student’s gains in academic achievement over the eighth grade. We discuss why our findings are rich with implications for research\, theory\, and public policies focused on the problem of improving student achievement in developing countries. There will be a Q&A session after the presentation.\n\nThe webinar will be hosted using Zoom. Registration is required to attend the webinar.

One space that we have seen is a positive geometry is the totally nonnegative Grassmannian\, but it is not a polytope. However\, like a polytope\, the totally nonnegative Grassmannian is a regular CW complex homeomorphic to a closed ball\, which was conjectured by Postnikov and proven by Galashin-Karp-Lam. In this talk\, we will give a different\, self-contained argument\, also due to Galashin-Karp-Lam\, that the totally nonnegative Grassmannian is homeomorphic to a closed ball. To do so\, we will exhibit a homeomorphism by constructing a contractive flow on the totally nonnegative Grassmannian.

By modulating process time\, frequency\, energy\, and chemistry\, it is possible to vastly increase the range of conditions and surface modification effects at surfaces. ALE/ALD can simplify the process by separating\, for example\, a chemical surface modification step from addition of energy through rare gas ion bombardment. It might be possible to design novel etch and/or deposition precursor molecules to take advantage of ALE/ALD modulation-oriented approaches. However\, process modulation introduces the complexity of having the surface state change in time during the exposure. To understand and control these processes\, atomic scale plasma-surface interaction simulations are essential. In this talk\, I briefly review the use of molecular dynamics (MD) simulations in plasma-surface interactions and how they have been used to help understand conventional plasma etching and deposition. I then use our recent studies of PEALE to highlight both successes and limitations of the current state of the art when used for modulated atomic layer processes. The key issues of interatomic force fields for many new chemistries and materials\; using MD to simulate an intrinsically multi-timescale process\; and the need to couple well-diagnosed experiments with atomistic simulations are emphasized.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nDavid B.

In the interest of better understanding the theory of rings and schemes more generally\, commutative algebraists and algebraic geometers study singular (non-singular) rings. In particular\, we are interested in saying how badly a ring fails to be regular -- because if the failure is not too bad\, many powerful techniques developed for regular rings still apply. In this talk\, we introduce the Frobenius morphism\, a ring map which exists only in prime characteristic. Singularities of this map are called *F-singularities*\, and we discuss several important categories of rings classified by this map -- F-finite\, F-split\, F-pure\, and strongly F-regular rings.

In response to mass protests\, the Nicaraguan government engaged in mass killings\, illegal detentions\, torture\, dissapearances and other crimes against the civilian population. To this day\, the country is living under an undeclared state of exception\, and the regime continues to persecute social justice activists\, feminist organizers\, academics\, journalists\, labor organizers\, afro-indigenous leaders\, among others. More than ten percent of the country’s population has left since 2018\, with hundreds of thousands seeking asylum in the United States. This teach-in gathers Nicaraguan feminist scholars and activists to discuss the feminist responses to the 2018 uprising and their current organizing efforts. \n\nParticipants:\nEmilia Yang\, Assistant Professor of Art and Design\, Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design. She serves as the Director of “AMA y No Olvida\, Memory Museum Against Impunity” that explores participatory forms of art and design for remembering and demanding justice for the victims of state violence in her home country Nicaragua.\n\nLuciana Chamorro\, Nicaraguan feminist\, Visiting Assistant Professor in Anthropology at U-M.\n\nYulu: Social Worker\, Researcher\, Educator and decolonial and anti-racist feminist.

Using RNA sequencing and mass-spectrometry it has now become possible quantify the transcriptional and translational outputs of thousands of tumor samples. These data provide a link between cellular phenotypes and their molecular underpinnings\, such as mutations. In the context of cancer\, this link represents an opportunity to dissect the complexity and heterogeneity of tumors and to discover new biomarkers or therapeutic strategies. The National Cancer Institute's Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium (CPTAC) was established to accelerate the understanding of the molecular basis of cancer through the application of large-scale proteome and genome analysis\, or proteogenomics. In my talk I will review the rationale\, methodology and translational impact of proteogenomic profiling of cancer\, and detail the contributions of the University of Michigan Proteogenomic Data Analysis Center towards efforts to unravel the genetic and phenotypic complexity of multiple common and rare human cancers.\n\n\n\n\nhttps://umich-health.zoom.us/j/93929606089?pwd=SHh6R1FOQm8xMThRemdxTEFMWWpVdz09\n\n\nShort Bio:\nMarcin Cieslik is an assistant professor in the Departments of Pathology and Computational Medicine and Bioinformatics at the University of Michigan. His lab's research aims to further the discovery\, understanding\, and clinical translation of genomic underpinnings of cancer. His research group specializes in the development of computational and statistical methods for the analysis of large-scale sequencing data to understand genomic and proteomic mechanisms related to cancer. Currently\, their research focuses on discovering genetic and regulatory mechanisms of cancer immune evasion and understanding oncogenic mechanisms through integrative analyses of cancers genomes and proteomes.

Sufi Lovers\, Safavid Silks\, and Early Modern Identity DESCRIPTION:The height of fashion at the sixteenth century Safavid court was an ensemble of shimmering gold and silk\, interwoven with the tales of legendary lovers from the Khamsa (Quintet) of epic Persian poetry. As Persian poetry was adopted in court circles from Iran to South Asia\, Sufi behavior codes embodied by the characters were adapted and propagated by early modern rulers and incorporated into the visual arts\, including textiles\, as an expression of mystic practice. \n\nExamining textiles alongside Khamsa poetry\, manuscript paintings\, and primary accounts\, the silks reveal cross-cultural expressions of piety and allegiance in a world unified by language and behavior codes\, while fragmented by religion and politics. This interdisciplinary study presents new evidence for reattribution of silks based on the migration of textile specialists from the Safavid to the Mughal court\, where expert designers produced luxury goods for a sophisticated and educated elite.\n\nNazanin Hedayat Munroe is Associate Professor and Director of Textiles at City University of New York. An artist and art historian\, she received her Ph.D. in art history from University of Bern\, Switzerland\, specializing in early modern silks\, and her M.F.A. in Fiber from Cranbrook Academy of Art.

The novel approach we employ is analytically continuing through a random set of points in an extended space—this addresses the main shortcoming of previous solvers\, which is numerical instability of path trackers near branch points. We rigorously justify the correctness and completeness of our algorithm by drawing from analytic continuation\, generalized Maclaurin series (Pade techniques)\, and the action of the fundamental group. We then demonstrate our algorithm’s competitiveness by testing it on benchmark systems and comparing its performance to state-of-the-art solvers.

In order to enable design by simulation for problems arising in these applications\, automatically adaptive solvers which resolve the complexity of the geometry and the input data\, and combining these tools with neural networks to navigate the complicated design-optimization landscape play a critical role. On the adaptive solvers side\, this has been made possible through the development of high-order integral equation methods which rely on well-conditioned integral representations\, efficient quadrature formulas\, and coupling to fast algorithms. In this talk\, I will discuss the development and application of these tools for a) studying edge effects at insulator interfaces where waves tend to propagate at the interface of two insulating media (and are evanescent in the bulk)\; b) an industry collaboration with Meyer Sound for optimizing the design of horn-loaded speakers\; and c) studying light propagation in an insect eye.\n\nTalk will be in-person and on Zoom:\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/98734707290\n\nContact: Shravan Veerapaneni UID:111611-21827321@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/111611 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Mathematics LOCATION:West Hall - 120 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231009T153102 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231025T163000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231025T190000 SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:NERS Open House DESCRIPTION:RSVP to attend the NERS Open House.

He has headlined London’s iconic Queen Elizabeth Hall and has become a regular fixture in Europe’s most prestigious concert halls. Splitting his time between piano and nylon string guitar\, Charlie creates melancholic yet rhythmically driven songs. When these are expressed with his characteristic restraint\, something timeless takes shape. Despite his dyslexia making it nearly impossible for him to read music\, Charlie earned a music degree and by his mid-20s worked a variety of odd jobs and wrote songs in his free time. Eventually\, he moved to Seville\, immersed himself in flamenco music and focused intensely on his guitar playing. Planning to stay for three months\, he stayed for three years. Once home\, Charlie found work playing in bars across London and Oxfor ­—eventually returning to songwriting. Charlie has subsequently released two albums and four eps which have garnered over half a billion streams. Charlie comes to Michigan with his his third album\, “Frame.” A collection of lush\, delicate pop songs brimming with references to art rock\, golden era jazz\, and neo-classical composition—all the while maintaining the pared-back and clear-eyed musicality for which he is so well recognized. Throughout the album\, Charlie creates the fragility\, power and tension found in timeless songwriting\, reanimated through a modern lens.\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4029/4030 for more detail.
