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.

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.

Zoom registration at http://myumi.ch/x7r8n\n\nIn Japan\, menstrual product manufacturing and advertising rakes in millions of dollars each year\, and most women have access to a plethora of menstrual products. Women strategically use disposable menstrual pads to maintain an idealized feminine aesthetic and affect. The pad also acts as a mediator—or barrier—between a woman and her body\; this reduced sensory relationship produces markedly different menstrual experiences from those who use other products like tampons or reusable cloth pads.\n \n Maura Stephens-Chu has served as a Visiting Assistant Professor of Anthropology at Miami University in Oxford\, Ohio. She received her Ph.D. and MA in anthropology from the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa. She specializes in medical and cultural anthropology\, with an emphasis on embodied experiences of menstruation in contemporary Japan. Broadly\, Maura’s multidisciplinary and intersectional research includes theoretical and methodological approaches from anthropology\, Japanese studies\, gender studies\, history\, and science and technology studies. She has conducted extensive ethnographic research in Tokyo\, Japan\, on young women’s perceptions\, education\, and personal experiences of menstruation and commercial menstrual products. Her historical analysis of Japanese menstrual taboos\, “From Sacred to Secret: Tracing Changes in Views of Menstruation in Japan\,” can be found in the open access journal\, *Silva Iaponicarum*. Currently\, Maura is researching the formation of both layperson and medical understandings of conditions that fall under the umbrella of menstrual “irregularity\,” including endometriosis\, amenorrhea\, and severe dysmenorrhea.\n\n*This lecture is made possible with the generous support of the U.S. Department of Education Title VI grant.*\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at wugou@umich.edu.

It seeks to characterize the archaeological assemblage of Butiru\, emphasizing the entire organization of iron production in the area. The research was guided by the following objectives that include: 1) To document the archaeological relics of Butiru\, 2)To characterize the archaeological assemblage\, and 3)To investigate the influence of iron production on society’s social and economic lives. The methods used for data collection included archaeological surveys and in-depth interviews. The results suggest that the Eastern part of Uganda has produced minimal evidence relating to Iron production. However\, our preliminary survey in Butiru recorded sites and artifacts that provide abundant evidence of ancient iron production in this area. The tangible evidence is backed by narratives from the current inhabitants and contributes to some of the major cultural identity practices among the Bagisu\, one of the dominant ethnic groups in Eastern Uganda.

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:114166-21832425@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114166 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:20240812T102513 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231026T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231026T150000 SUMMARY:Other:The Farm Stand DESCRIPTION:The Farm Stand is a weekly pop-up market and education project that sells produce grown by students for students.

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:112261-21828710@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:20230818T110250 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231026T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231026T134500 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Microlearning Goal Setting Workshop: How to use SMART Goals DESCRIPTION:Course registration and details are available on the Organizational Learning website.

U-M ChE faculty and graduate students are especially encouraged to attend.\n\nAbstract: Halide perovskites are exciting new semiconductors that show great promising in low cost and high-performance optoelectronics devices including solar cells\, LEDs\, photodetectors\, lasers\, etc. However\, the poor stability is limiting their practical use. In this talk\, I will present the development of a new family of stable organic-inorganic hybrid electronic materials\, namely\, Organic Semiconductor-Incorporated Perovskites (OSiP). Energy transfer and charge transfer between adjacent organic and inorganic layers are extremely fast and efficient\, owing to the atomically-flat interface and ultra-small interlayer distance. Moreover\, the rigid conjugated ligands dramatically enhance materials’ chemical stability and suppresses solid-state ion diffusion and electron-photon coupling\, making them promising for many applications. Based on this\, we demonstrate for the first time an epitaxial halide perovskite heterostructure with near atomically-sharp interface\, which pave the way for perovskite nanoelectronics and nanophotonics. Finally\, using this stable and solution-processable OSiPs\, we demonstrate the fabrication of high-quality thin films\, which enable highly stable and efficient solar cells and LEDs.\n\nBio: Dr. Letian Dou is currently the Charles Davidson Associate Professor of Chemical Engineering and Chemistry (by courtesy) at Purdue University.

DESCRIPTION:**Please note special date\, time and location for this seminar**\n\nNN Khuri\, in 1995\, considered a potential model where one spatial\ndimension was compactified. He adopted Green function method\, which has been\nused for case of noncompact potential model\, to study analyticity property\nof forward amplitude and showed it violates dispersion relation (in case of\nnoncompact potential model dispersionrelation had been proved in 1950's). If\nKhuri's result were valid in relativistic QFT it will have serious\nconsequences (for example proof of Frossart bound will not be valid). Andre\nMartin asked me to look at analyticity of amplitude for a theory with\ncompactified spatial dimension.\nI studied analyticity for such a theory in the framework of general field\ntheory without adopting any specific model. I have proved two results (i)\nForward dispesion relation is valid in relativistic QFT for a massive scalar\nfield theory with a compact spatial dimention. Thus Khiri's result for\npotential scattering does not hold good for relativistic QFT. (ii) I have\ngone further\; I proved nonforward dispersion relation. Thus I\nhave gone beyond Khuri.

Marcus Seminar in Applied Microeconomics: Reshaping gender attitudes in India: An 8-year follow-up study DESCRIPTION:We evaluate the long-run effects of an intervention in India that engaged adolescent girls and boys in classroom discussions about gender equality for two years during secondary school\, aiming to reduce their support for societal norms that restrict women’s and girls’ opportunities. In prior work\, we found that the program made attitudes more supportive of gender equality. In this follow-up study\, we estimate longer-run effects\, when the study participants are\, on average\, 20 years old. We also surveyed younger siblings and parents to assess spillover effects of the intervention. First\, we find no effects of the intervention on female participants' educational attainment\, employment\, or age of marriage. Second\, the effect on gender attitudes is still present but attenuated compared to the shorter-run effect. Third\, female participants report having more personal autonomy.

The film “focuses on the twentieth century’s first genocide—the Herero and Nama Genocide\, carried out by Germany in 1905 in his family’s native Namibia. Hambira bridges geography and time to describe the indelible and far-reaching impacts of the genocide and the ongoing struggle for reparations and reconciliation.” The film will be accompanied by a discussion with Hambira and ASC Director Omolade Adunbi.\n\nKavena Hambira\, MFA (he/ him) – With his work grounded in documentary filmmaking\, Hambira seeks to connect nodes of history that tell a story of shared resilience and invention despite ongoing colonial and racial oppression. While his earlier work documented families impacted by police violence\, his current work focuses on the twentieth century’s first genocide—the Herero and Nama Genocide\, carried out by Germany in 1905 in his family’s native Namibia.\n\nEngaging textiles and traditional costumes alongside documentary film\, here Hambira bridged geography and time to describe the indelible and far-reaching impacts of the genocide and the ongoing struggle for reparations and reconciliation. Kavena holds a master’s in fine art (MFA) from the University of California\, Berkeley\, and is currently an adjunct faculty at California State University Stanislaus.\n \nOmolade Adunbi is a political and environmental anthropologist and professor of Afroamerican and African Studies in the Department of Afroamerican and African Studies (DAAS). His research examines the dynamics of power\, natural resource extractive practices\, governance\, human and environmental rights\, culture\, transnational institutions\, multinational corporations\, and the postcolonial state.

By following the roots of the return migrant (Tagalog: balikbayan) in the early twentieth century\, this talk argues that US statecraft in the Philippines attempted to co-opt value from emigrants through the repatriation of labor and capital\, to be used to fortify the territorial claims of the colonial state. In turn\, these lands are reframed by the state as the birthright of overseas Filipinos who yearn to connect with their roots. The simultaneity of migrant capture and settler colonialism coalesced around a new cultural-economic form that defines twentieth-century nationhood: the homeland. \n\nAdrian De Leon is the author of Bundok: A Hinterland History of Filipino America (University of North Carolina Press\, 2023). His next project\, Balikbayan: The Invention of the Filipino Homeland\, is under contract with the University of Washington Press.

In particular\, the native ECM is composed of hierarchically structured biopolymers with dynamic properties that change over time. Synthetic ECMs\, however\, are typically formed from disordered polymers and chemistries that lead to time-invariant properties. Toward this end\, we have developed bioinspired strategies to incorporate hierarchical order and dynamic behavior into synthetic hydrogels. We will discuss the chemical and physical mechanisms that lead to multiscale control in these materials\, as well as their application toward matrices for human mesenchymal stromal cell culture.\nBio:\nDr. Adrianne Rosales is an Assistant Professor of Chemical Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin.

Luger combines critical cultural analysis with dedication and respect for the diverse materials\, environments\, and communities he engages while provoking diverse audiences to engage with Indigenous peoples and values apart from the lens of colonial social structuring.\nCo-commissioned by UMMA and Monument Lab\, the centerpiece of Luger’s newest project You’re Welcome resides on the exterior of UMMA’s building and responds to the question: “How do we remember on this campus?” Luger’s work asks the campus and community to reconsider the memories molded into the Museum’s stone — the perspectives that shaped those traditions and the stories that remain unseen in our facade. This artistic interrogation dissects colonialist norms of monument-making\, explores the roles of buildings in upholding dominant cultural narratives\, and offers an approach to memorials that centers Indigenous perspectives and collaboration to tell fuller stories and histories. \nBorn on the Standing Rock Reservation in North Dakota\, New Mexico-based artist Cannupa Hanska Luger is an enrolled member of the Three Affiliated Tribes of Fort Berthold and is of Mandan\, Hidatsa\, Arikara and Lakota heritage. Luger is a 2022 Guggenheim Fellow\, a recipient of a 2021 United States Artists Fellowship Award for Craft and was named a 2021 GRIST Fixer. He is a 2020 Creative Capital Fellow\, a 2020 Smithsonian Artist Research Fellow\, and the recipient of the Museum of Arts and Design’s 2018 inaugural Burke Prize\, among others. Luger has exhibited nationally and internationally including at The Metropolitan Museum of Art\, Gardiner Museum\, Kunsthal KAdE\, Washington Project for the Arts\, Art Mûr\, Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art and the National Center for Civil and Human Rights. \nLuger will be joined in conversation with Monument Lab co-founder Paul M.

Her research interests center around connectivity\, migration\, and colonization in the Mediterranean\, particularly southern Italy. The description of her talk is as follows:\n\nIn antiquity\, the Adriatic Sea functioned as a seam between vast regions of the Mediterranean and Europe\, bridging the long\, culturally diverse shorelines of the Balkans and the Italian peninsula. It was also one of the more direct sea routes from anywhere in the Mediterranean to the heart of central Europe and\, via the latter’s rivers\, the Northern and Baltic Seas. These long-distance routes moved amber\, and at specific times copper\, along the Adriatic coasts and into the Mediterranean. At the same time\, shorter-distance\, cross-Adriatic connections have been documented from the Neolithic onwards. Yet while diachronic shifts in the shape and intensity of these connections are obvious\, our understanding of the local social processes shaping Adriatic connectivity through time is still coarse. To tackle this question\, this summer I conducted preliminary research in two river valleys situated on the opposite shores of the Adriatic (Southern Italy and Albania) with the aim of setting up a long-term collaborative project. This talk will provide a general introduction and very preliminary report of this summer’s activities\, along with a discussion of future research perspectives within the framework of Mediterranean archaeology studies.\n\nThis lecture will take place in the Classics Library (2175 Angell Hall). Light refreshments and snacks will be provided.

Three extraordinary voices with one singular vision: The Wailin' Jennys continue to evolve into far more than the melodious sum of their individual talents years after blowing in on a fresh acoustic breeze from Canada's midwestern heartland. Canadians Nicky Mehta\, and Ruth Moody and New Yorker Heather Masse were all well-established talents individually\, and their collaboration is an example of how exciting it can be when performers with distinct outlooks find ways of working together. Each member of the trio contributes distinctive original songs to the mix\, which ranges from folk-rock to Celtic to traditional song. This trio has won fans for its incredible harmonies at venues ranging from \"A Prairie Home Companion\" (multiple times) to the small-town parks and festivals in Manitoba that gave them their start.\n\n\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/3873/3874 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.

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.

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

A Robust Bounds Approach DESCRIPTION:This study provides a structural analysis of detailed\, alternating-offer bargaining data from eBay\, deriving bounds on buyers and sellers private value distributions using a range of assump- tions on behavior. These assumptions range from very weak (assuming only that acceptance and rejection decisions are rational) to less weak (e.g.\, assuming that bargaining offers are weakly increasing in players’ private values). We estimate the bounds and show what they imply for consumer negotiation behavior in theory and practice. For the median product\, bargaining ends in impasses in 43% of negotiations even when the buyer values the good more than the seller.\n\n\nThis talk is presented by the Applied Microeconomics/Industrial Organization Seminar\, sponsored by the Department of Economics with generous gifts given through the Jean Coven Speakers Fund in Economics and the Economics Strategic Fund.

While the confidential data remains accessible only to a limited number of government analysts and researchers\, SOI provides an accessible public use file for external researchers and data practitioners. However\, safeguarding this public use file has grown increasingly difficult to protect through traditional statistical data privacy methods\, as the vast amount of personal information available in public and private databases combined with enormous computational power create unprecedented privacy risks.\n\nThis presentation will cover the collaborative efforts of SOI and researchers at the Urban Institute\, who are actively developing a solution: the creation of synthetic data that represent the statistical properties of the administrative data without revealing any individual taxpayer information. Additionally\, Urban is building a prototype validation server that empowers researchers to indirectly conduct statistical analyses on administrative tax data. Researchers can accomplish this by evaluating their analyses using synthetic data and subsequently submitting them to the validation server. The server then produces a modified output with added noise\, all the while maintaining the confidentiality of taxpayer information. In essence\, this talk will address the lessons learned\, best practices\, and challenges encountered in the process of safely expanding access to administrative tax data.\n\nhttps://clairemckaybowen.com/ UID:109433-21822022@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/109433 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:seminar LOCATION:West Hall - 340 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230830T211021 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231027T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231027T143000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Story Lab Fall Retreats DESCRIPTION:ABOUT\nStory Lab develops executive-level presence and communication skills through storytelling workshops and events.

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.

Yet the practice of writing hugely exceeds the boundaries of disciplinary scholarship. How do various modes and genres of writing inflect the ways in which we are able to think historically and imagine the past? What kinds of meaning can various forms of writing engender when it comes to understanding history? As the profession embraces writing for public audiences\, what genres of writing constitute history? In this panel\, scholars from a variety of disciplines consider alterities of history\, from the ancient Mediterranean to modern West Africa and Southeast Asia. Each panelist will consider the ways in which history can be practiced and socially inscribed in ways that are alien to the academic discipline of history.\n\n\nChantal Croteau (PhD Candidate\, Anthropology\, University of Michigan)\nOrven Mallari (PhD Student\, Anthropology\, University of Michigan)\nCaroline Murphy-Racette (PhD Student\, Classical Studies\, University of Michigan)\nTalitha Tukura Pam (PhD Student\, Anthropology and History\, University of Michigan)\nHakem Al-Rustom (moderator\; Assistant Professor\, Alex Manoogian Professor of Modern Armenian History\, University of Michigan)\n\nThis event presented by the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

These membranes are composed of heterogeneous mixtures of lipids and proteins. Understanding and controlling biomolecular interactions that occur at membranes is challenging owing to the inherent ability of the membrane environment to functionally couple interactions between proteins and lipids. Nonetheless\, elucidating the interplay between proteins and lipids in biological membranes is important for a variety of applications\, such as pinpointing the mechanisms of disease\, discovering and delivering new drugs\, and developing functional biomaterials. Toward addressing these challenges\, our group uses engineering principles and fluorescence techniques to develop the tools\, approaches\, and ideas that will enable us to understand and control the protein-lipid interface.\n\nThis presentation will primarily focus on protein-lipid interactions that facilitate sensing and/or generation of membrane curvature\, which are processes that are essential to cellular physiology. Specifically\, the prevailing structure-function paradigm posits that protein function only arises from specific structural features. However\, our recent work has revealed that proteins lacking secondary structure – Intrinsically Disordered Proteins (IDPs) – can be potent sensors and generators of membrane curvature. The mechanisms for this functional behavior arises from the polyampholytic nature of these unfolded\, amino acid chains. Interestingly\, IDPs comprise ~40% of the human proteome but only a handful of IDPs have been examined in the context of protein-lipid interactions. Therefore\, this paradoxical finding represents a significant\, yet unexplored frontier in the field of membrane remodeling. Our most recent findings highlight an example of this disordered functionality in α-Synuclein\, which is a neuronal protein heavily implicated with the onset of Parkinson’s Disease. In addition to the investigation of IDPs at biological membranes\, this talk will briefly discuss some of our other research areas which include engineering strategies for mitigating lipid peroxidation in cellular membranes and the development of biomembrane-inspired technologies.

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:114167-21832426@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114167 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:20231006T145854 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231027T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231027T133000 SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:UNDER THE CAMPUS\, THE LAND - Advancing Native Student Activism DESCRIPTION:The effort to hold the University of Michigan to its responsibilities to Native people has been led by generations of Native American students.

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:112261-21828711@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:20231111T063142 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231027T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231027T140000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:International Students Career Series: How to Navigate Small Talk DESCRIPTION:\"In the United States\, many people participate in what is called \"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"small talk\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\, where you make conversation with strangers or acquaintances about non-controversial topics\, such as the weather\, sports\, or popular television shows. “Small talk” is one of the ways in American culture to chat about harmless topics in order to establish a connection and start to build a friendship.\n\nFor example\, while waiting for an interview\, in line at a M-Den\, or in an elevator on campus\, don’t be startled if a stranger says something to you like\, “Did you watch the Football Game last night?

This should be surprising\, given that what they do is inherently meaningful\, and that the content of their work is interesting and engages skills that most people find intrinsically rewarding to exercise. I argue that the discontent of so many professionals is likely due to their increasing proletarianization. As professionals become increasingly submerged as employees in large organizations\, often operated on a for-profit basis\, they suffer losses of professional autonomy. The organizations they work for operate on a managerial logic that disdains and suppresses the kinds of local\, personal\, practical knowledge that professionals cultivate and need to exercise to do their jobs well. I explore the contrasts between the kind of knowledge managers use to pursue organizational goals and the kind of knowledge professionals use in their everyday interactions with patients\, students\, and clients\, to explain the pervasive burnout of professionals in large organizations.

My talk will focus on how our highly competitive constraints from CMB lensing and CMB lensing cross-correlations can provide insight into the widely discussed “S8/sigma8 tension”. For this purpose I will briefly introduce the high fidelity CMB lensing reconstruction obtained by the ACT Collaboration and results from the analysis of the lensing auto-correlation. I will discuss new results from the cross-correlation between ACT CMB lensing and unWISE galaxies\, highlighting improvements to the analysis pipeline compared to previous work on the cross-correlation between Planck CMB lensing and unWISE by some of my collaborators (Krolewski et al. 2021). I will also show a reanalysis of Planck CMB lensing x unWISE and a joined analysis of the ACT and Planck CMB lensing cross-correlations with unWISE.

And because of that\, Spinoza thinks that they should be granted a large degree of freedom in the choice of the religion that they practice. He writes: “Opinions govern men in different ways: those which move one person to devotion\, move another to laughter and contempt.” So as long as they subscribe to the true religion\, that is\, as long as they love their neighbor as themselves\, and love God above all\, they should be allowed to worship as they please. However\, this right does not extend to groups of individuals. The Jewish community\, a collective individual can be said to have an ingenium as well. But even so\, Spinoza seems unwilling to extend this right to the Jewish community\, as opposed to individual Jews. In this talk I will explore why individuals get religious freedom for Spinoza\, but groups of individuals don’t.

The classification is based on the Kodaira dimension\, which is a numerical invariant that measures the \"complexity\" of a surface. In this talk\, we will discuss the Enriques-Kodaira classification in detail. We will begin by introducing the Kodaira Embedding Theorem which gives criteria for compact complex manifolds to be embedded into projective space. Then we will be discussing the Kodaira dimension and explaining its significance. We will then present the classification theorem itself\, and we will discuss the different types of surfaces that arise in the classification. In addition to the classification theorem\, we will also discuss some of the applications of the theorem to solve many important problems in algebraic geometry.

I will discuss the index in the strongly coupled theory\, as a functional integral in N=2 supergravity in asymptotically flat space. The saddle-points of this index are given by supersymmetric ​\"finite-temperature\" rotating geometries. I will discuss a new version of the attractor mechanism obeyed by these geometries: the scalar fields at the poles of the Euclidean horizon as well as the free energy of the black hole get attracted to values that depend only on the charges and are independent of the asymptotic moduli and temperature.

Two important climate systems are the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and East Asian Winter Monsoon (EAWM)\, which restrict surface ITF flow by driving low-salinity surface waters from the South China Sea into the western Indonesian Seas. Changes in South China Sea surface ocean pathways alter the magnitude of heat and freshwater carried by the ITF into the Indian Ocean\, with global consequences. However\, robust observational data only extends to the 1980s\, hindering examination of the balance of ENSO and the EAWM influences on SCS surface ocean pathways. In addition\, both ENSO and the EAWM reveal significant biennial variability that describes the poorly understood interactions of these systems. In this talk\, I use seasonally resolved coral proxy records of ocean circulation (Δ14C and Ba/Ca) from the western Indonesian Seas to investigate biennial variability in ENSO and EAWM strength and interactions. I show that from 1945-1960\, the EAWM strongly influences surface ocean pathways at biennial timescales. Following the 1960s\, shifts in EAWM mean state and the frequency of central Pacific El Niño events coincide with reductions in the magnitude of the biennial signal and reversals in EAWM and ENSO influences on circulation. These changes in the balance of ENSO and EAWM influences serve as indicators for future changes in global heat distribution and Indo-Pacific climate\, highlighting the importance of records that resolve EAWM-ENSO relationships beyond recent decades.

Ambitious performance and capability goals were set for each application that demanded end-to-end rethinking of traditional approaches. Through detailed performance analysis\, integration with optimized co-design frameworks and software libraries\, and the use of programming abstractions to manage data placement and kernel execution\, ECP applications recently demonstrated substantial capability and performance improvements on newly-available exascale machines. Despite significant diversity in the methods and algorithms underlying the ECP application portfolio\, several common themes emerged in how to best adapt computational workloads to heterogeneous architectures. In this talk\, an overview of best practices and lessons learned on effectively utilizing exascale hardware from the perspective of ECP applications will be presented. Strategies for developing portable\, performant code will be discussed and examples of reexamining traditional algorithms and methods will be described. Armed with this knowledge\, researchers can go beyond simply surviving an uncertain and turbulent computing future to instead leading a wave of scientific and computational innovation as traditional approaches are reexamined and new approaches adopted.\n\n\nBio: Dr. Erik Draeger is the Director of the High Performance Computing Innovation Center and RADIUSS project at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory as well as the Scientific Computing group leader at the Center for Applied Scientific Computing. He is also the Deputy Director of Application Development for the Exascale Computing Project\, jointly overseeing a portfolio of 22 Office of Science applications\, 4 NNSA applications\, and 7 co-design projects. Erik earned a Bachelor’s degree in Physics from the University of California\, Berkeley in 1995 and received a PhD in theoretical condensed matter physics from the University of Illinois\, Urbana-Champaign in 2001. He has over a decade of experience developing scientific applications to achieve maximum scalability and time to solution on next-generation architectures. He has been a finalist for the Gordon Bell Prize six times since 2005 and won the prize in 2006.

He serves as artistic director of México City’s Minería Symphony\, which was founded in the 1970s and is widely regarded as the leading musical institution in México — one that regularly supports and programs Mexican composers. Housed at the Academia de Música del Palacio de Minería\, the name honors the period from the 18th century when mining was one of the region’s most important economic activities.\n\nJoining the Minería Symphony in their first Ann Arbor performance is Latin Grammy Award-winning pianist/composer Gabriela Montero\, a frequent Prieto collaborator. Montero\, known for her passionate virtuosity and brilliant improvisation\, performs her first piano concerto\, a soulful work showing the complexities of South American life. “Montero’s playing has everything: crackling rhythmic brio\, subtle shadings\, steely power in climactic moments\, soulful lyricism in the ruminative passages and\, best of all\, unsentimental expressivity.” (The New York Times)\n\nThe concert includes works by two Mexican composers: Carlos Chávez (1899- 1978)\, an ethnomusicologist whose Sinfonía India reflects the harmonies\, rhythms\, melodies\, and instruments of the Indian cultures of Mexico\, and Silvestre Revueltas\, whose concert suite La noche de los mayas depicts Mexico’s preColumbian heritage and is drawn from his highly-regarded 1939 film score.\n\nPROGRAM\nGabriela Ortiz Kauyumari\nCarlos Chávez Symphony No. 2 (“Sinfonía India”)\nGabriela Montero Piano Concerto No. 1 (“Latin”)\nSilvestre Revueltas La noche de los mayas\n\nJoin host Doyle Armbrust for “The Society of Disobedient Listeners” — a special pre-performance talk\, 6:30 pm in the lower lobby of Hill Auditorium.

And did you hear them at the Ann Arbor Folk Festival\, playing the last movement of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony\, minus the voices but with pretty much everything else pretty much intact? Like most Californians\, most of the members of the California Guitar Trio all come from someplace else: Bert Lams is Belgian\, Paul Richards is from Salt Lake City\, and Chapman Stick wizard Paul Griesgraber came from California but studied at the Berklee College of Music in Boston. Lams and Richards pushed themselves to the limit by enrolling in Robert Fripp's challenging Guitar Craft courses\, where they first met in 1987.

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.

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.

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:114168-21832427@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114168 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:20231117T094743 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231028T123000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231028T131500 SUMMARY:Presentation:Sky Tonight DESCRIPTION:A live presentation on what to find in the sky tonight and for the coming few weeks.

With a change of cast in 2019\, the band is shifting its weight and focusing more on the melodic components. The rhythms of their new sound leave room for the songs to breathe and for the vocals to take on the spotlight. Now equipped with four vocalists\, the band is diving into the textures they can create with vocal harmonies and exploring the newly-created space with instrumental curiosity\, adding more improvisational elements into the otherwise-tight arrangements. The sweet energetic charm of lead singer Erin Zindle demands attention. She is an enigma of ageless quality\, agile and joyful\, yet rooted in wisdom. In her daily life\, Erin is devoted to the tedious work of songcraft\, but in her performances\, the songs flow from her effortlessly\, as if she is channeling them\, radiating as she sings the words she has polished to a fine shine.\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4255/4256 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.

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.

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.

In this talk\, she will present data that quantifies the disagreement between chromosomal and self-reported sex and identifies potential reasons for discordance using data from the UK Biobank. She and coauthors show that among approximately 200 individuals with sex discordance\, 71% of discordances were explained by intersex traits or transgender identity. These findings imply that health and clinical researchers have a unique opportunity to advance the rigor of scientific research as well as the health and well-being of transgender\, intersex\, and nonbinary people\, who have long been excluded from and overlooked in clinical and survey research.\n\n\nKate Duchowny (she/her) is a Research Assistant Professor in the Survey Research Center at the University of Michigan's Institute for Social Research. As a social epidemiologist\, her research focuses on the measurement\, determinants\, and consequences of compromised muscle health among older adults. Her overarching research goal seeks to inform interventions by bridging the social\, environmental\, and biological determinants of musculoskeletal health and physical functioning across the life course. She is particularly interested in identifying novel biomarkers that aid in our understanding of how social experiences become biologically embedded to produce and exacerbate health inequities.\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\n\nDial by your location\n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n+1 309 205 3325 US\n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n+1 646 876 9923 US (New York)\n+1 646 931 3860 US\n+1 564 217 2000 US\n+1 669 444 9171 US\n+1 669 900 6833 US (San Jose)\n+1 719 359 4580 US\n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)\n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)\n+1 386 347 5053 US\n+1 647 374 4685 Canada\n+1 647 558 0588 Canada\n+1 778 907 2071 Canada\n+1 780 666 0144 Canada\n+1 204 272 7920 Canada\n+1 438 809 7799 Canada\n+1 587 328 1099 Canada\nMeeting ID: 954 1861 0585\nFind your local number: https://umich.zoom.us/u/aCRAyuQaT\n\nJoin by SIP\n95418610585@zoomcrc.com\n\nJoin by H.323\n162.255.37.11 (US West)\n162.255.36.11 (US East)\n115.114.131.7 (India Mumbai)\n115.114.115.7 (India Hyderabad)\n213.19.144.110 (Amsterdam Netherlands)\n213.244.140.110 (Germany)\n103.122.166.55 (Australia Sydney)\n103.122.167.55 (Australia Melbourne)\n149.137.40.110 (Singapore)\n64.211.144.160 (Brazil)\n149.137.68.253 (Mexico)\n69.174.57.160 (Canada Toronto)\n65.39.152.160 (Canada Vancouver)\n207.226.132.110 (Japan Tokyo)\n149.137.24.110 (Japan Osaka)\nMeeting ID: 954 1861 0585\nPasscode: 818420 UID:111279-21826617@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/111279 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Demography,Diversity Equity and Inclusion,Gender,Health Data,Lgbtq,Population Studies Center,Public Health,Research,Social Science,Sociology LOCATION:Institute For Social Research - 1430 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231027T144359 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231030T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231030T140000 SUMMARY:Recreational / Games:QT History Jeopardy!

Attendees learn from leading positive organizational scholars and connect with our community of academics\, students\, staff\, and leaders.\n\nAbout the talk:\nWe live in enormously polarized times. From politics to race\, religion\, gender\, and class\, division runs rampant. In 2020\, 40 percent of each political party said that supporters of the opposing party were “downright evil.” In 2019\, hate crimes reached a ten-year high in the United States. One in five Americans suffers from chronic loneliness. How did we become so alienated? Why is our sense of belonging so undermined?\n\nJoin Geoffrey Cohen\, author of Belonging: The Science of Creating Connection and Bridging Divides\, in a fireside chat with Ethan Kross to learn science-backed techniques for navigating modern social life that can help us overcome our differences\, create empathy\, and forge lasting connections even across divides. Geoffrey will share useful takeaways for managers and educators of all stripes to create connection – even during challenging times – and improve daily life at work\, in school\, in our homes\, and in our communities. Learn how belonging can help those around you thrive.\n\nStudent Watch Party: Watch this streamed session together with other students for an in-person community experience followed by a structured discussion about how to put insights from Positive Links into practice. Registration for the Student Watch Party is included as an option when registering for this session of Positive Links.\n\nAbout Cohen:\nGeoffrey L. Cohen is a Professor of Psychology and the James G. March Professor of Organizational Studies in Education and Business at Stanford University. He is a social psychologist by training and received his PhD at Stanford and his BA at Cornell.\n\nProfessor Cohen’s research examines the processes that shape people’s sense of belonging and self-concept and the role that these processes play in various social problems. He has studied the big and small threats to belonging and self-integrity that people encounter in school\, work\, healthcare settings\, politics\, communities\, and relationships. He and others have developed concrete\, science-backed strategies to create more welcoming spaces for people from all walks of life. He believes that the development of psychological theory depends not just on descriptive and observational research but on theory-driven intervention. He has long been inspired by Kurt Lewin’s quip\, “The best way to understand something is to try to change it.”\n\nHost:\nEthan Kross\, Faculty Associate\, Center for Positive Organizations\; Professor of Psychology and Management & Organizations\, University of Michigan\n\nSeries Sponsors:\nThe Center for Positive Organizations thanks Sanger Leadership Center\, Tauber Institute for Global Operations\, and Samuel Zell & Robert H.

This particle plays a unique role in fundamental physics. It gives all of the known elementary particles\, including itself\, their masses. While we now have a strong evidence that the Higgs field is indeed the unique source of mass for the known elementary particles\, the next step is to search for new interactions that could also explain why the Higgs field has the properties required by the Standard Model of particle physics. We have no clear roadmap to this new theory but the Higgs boson plays a crucial role in this quest. The goal of a next-generation e+e- collider is to carry out precision measurements to per-cent level of the Higgs boson properties that are not accessible at the LHC and HL-LHC. In this talk we present the study of a new concept for a high gradient\, high power accelerator\, the Cool Copper Collider (C^3)\, that could provide a route to precision Higgs physics with a compact footprint. The exploitation of the complementarity between LHC and future colliders will be the key to understanding fundamentally the Higgs boson.

It is a revolution moving us from alchemy to chemistry and one that is bringing order to chaos and laying the path from science to technology – in this case\, policy applications. This emerging science is grounded in a formal general theory that recognizes that our psychology and behavior are governed by millions of years of genetic evolution\, our genetic inheritance as an African ape\; thousands of years of cultural evolution\, our cultural inheritance a product of path dependencies and cultural adaptations in the various ecologies we’ve thrived in across the planet\; and a short lifetime of experience\, tuning these other two lines of informational inheritance. This revolution has 3 parts: (1) general and specific\, ultimate and proximate formal theories that make falsifiable predictions for universal and culturally specific psychology and behavior\; (2) new tools for measuring and analyzing psychology and culture through large datasets\, field and lab experiments\; (3) real world tests using policy interventions\, guided by the principle that if your theories don’t work in the real world\, they don’t work at all. \n\nMichael Muthukrishna is Associate Professor of Economic Psychology and Affiliate in Developmental Economics and in Data Science at the London School of Economics (LSE)\, Technical Director of the Database of Religious History\, and CIFAR Azrieli Global Scholar at the Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR) program for Boundaries\, Membership\, and Belonging. His research focuses on human biological and cultural evolution and how the “theory of human behavior” that emerges from this research can be used to improve innovation\, reduce corruption\, and increase cross-cultural cooperation. His work has been featured in a variety of news outlets including CNN\, BBC\, Wall Street Journal\, The Economist\, The Guardian\, The Telegraph\, The Times\, Scientific American\, Nature News\, and Science News. He advises both governments and organizations and has won several awards for his research. Michael’s research is informed by his educational background in engineering and psychology\, with graduate training in evolutionary biology\, economics\, and statistics\, and his personal background living in Sri Lanka\, Botswana\, Papua New Guinea\, Australia\, Canada\, United States\, and the United Kingdom.

We prove an analogous result for the massive model\, i.e. convergence of correlations between the spin\, disorder\, fermion\, and energy fields under a near-critical scaling limit setting. The massive model\, by definition\, is not conformally invariant and therefore its correlations do not enjoy a same kind of explicit description as in the critical case\; however\, analogues of the critical operator product expansions (OPE's) persist and the correlations may be bosonized and identified with correlations in the massless Sine-Gordon model. Based on joint works with Chelkak\, Izyurov\, Webb\, and others.

To keep the talk self-contained\, we shall first review the notions of quivers and their mutations\, as well as the association of a quiver to a triangulated surface without a self-folded triangle. In particular\, we recall how flips in triangulation correspond to quiver mutations. Then\, we will move on to the discussion on the triangulations of surfaces with a self-folded triangle\, and understand how this yields a more complete correspondence between flips and mutations. Finally\, we shall see how quivers arising from triangulated surfaces play a major role in the classification of mutation-finite quivers.

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.

UID:112897-21830746@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/112897 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Health & Wellness,Well-being LOCATION:South Quad - Transformers Lounge CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231026T171837 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231031T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231031T100000 SUMMARY:Presentation:Ground Vibration Testing and Finite Element Model Updating of Very Flexible Aircraft DESCRIPTION:As aircraft wings become more flexible as a consequence of searching for more fuel efficient and higher performance solutions\, structural nonlinearities become more apparent. Geometric nonlinearities make the structure’s modal parameters a function of the deformed shape and\, therefore\, of the loading condition. Modal characterization of very flexible structures is challenging due to these nonlinearities and the very low natural frequencies (the fundamental mode is typically below 1 Hz). Therefore\, testing practices that are well established and mature for traditional\, relatively rigid aircraft need to be re-examined.\n\nGround vibration testing consists of conducting a series of experimental tests on an aircraft to identify its modal parameters (natural frequencies\, mode shapes\, and damping ratios). These parameters are then used as a reference for updating the aircraft’s finite element model such that it is dynamically representative of the actual vehicle. This work proposes examining the conventional ground vibration testing and finite element model updating processes for very flexible aircraft and identifying the impact of flexibility and geometric nonlinearities on the process. The modified ground vibration testing and finite element model updating methodology are then applied to and verified on numerical models of very flexible test cases. Results are provided to showcase the applicability of the model updating process on the test cases\, along with a discussion of the limitations and additional considerations required to enhance the process.\n\nBy properly characterizing the suspension or support system in the structure’s numerical model\, experimental results from various deformed conditions allow for recovering the structure's true modal parameters once the influence of the suspension is modeled\, tuned\, and removed from the finite element model. This ground vibration testing and finite element model updating methodology was demonstrated experimentally on a very flexible beam and validated on a very flexible aircraft. Results from the finite element model updating process indicate that the new methodology proposed and verified as part of this work improves upon the established finite element model updating technologies when considering very flexible structures undergoing loads causing large displacements.

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.

Zoom registration at https://myumi.ch/y24ZD.\n\nThis talk examines twelfth- and thirteenth-century Chinese landscape paintings featuring prominently a human figure in the act of looking or gazing to illuminate why the portrayal of a beholder was important at this historical moment\, to this degree\, and how its depiction complicates the prevailing understanding of Southern Song landscape art as mainly evoking an idyllic tranquility. Drawing on a variety of leisure and entertainment experiences captured in period texts\, this study will ask how the dramaturgical and performative characteristics of sightseeing experiences informed and shaped the aesthetic fascination with envisioning oneself as a beholder/actor faced with a spectacle. By questioning some of the assumptions about the drastic shifts in landscape painting practices from the late Northern to the Southern Song\, this talk attempts to explain the prevalence of the act of gazing and the Southern Song landscapes framing such viewers in primarily theatrical terms.\n \n Meng Zhao is a postdoctoral fellow at the Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies at the University of Michigan. She specializes in the art and visual culture of imperial China\, with a focus on painting practices of the middle period and early modern times. Her current book project\, “Roaming\, Gazing\, Halting: Human Presence and Sensory Impression in Song Landscape Painting (1185-1279)\,” investigates the related ways in which major Chinese landscapists from the end of the eleventh to the thirteenth century turned their attention to the portrayal of human presence\, the intervention of which brings to the fore the multivalent mediating spaces that landscape as a pictorial subject can offer in Song dynasty artistic practices. Before joining the LRCCS\, she received her doctorate from the University of Chicago in 2022.

In fact\, of the 1.5 million faculty at degree-granting postsecondary institutions assessed in the Fall 2020\, 73% of faculty were white\; specifically 35 percent white female and 38 percent white male (National Center for Educational Statistics\, 2021). This phenomenon remains consistent when considered in relation to college student populations (Davis & Fry\, 2019).\n\nCollege students\, especially those from minoritized backgrounds\, have expressed a need for diversity in their faculty. More diverse faculty may allow these students to be “seen”\, heard\, and understood\, which can have a positive impact on their retention and graduation rates (Curry\, 2020). In addition\, white students who interact with diverse faculty are more likely to develop deeper cross-cultural and critical-thinking skills and greater levels of empathy\, which are essential for success in today’s multicultural and multiracial world (The Education Trust\, 2022).\n\nThere is a clear need to actively work to diversify the professoriate as the the benefits of a more diverse faculty population are comprehensive among college students.\n\nThe NCID\, in co-sponsorship with the Anti-Racism Collaborative and the Center for the Study of Higher and Postsecondary Education\, and as a part of the 2023 Arts & Resistance Theme Semester Grant through the U-M Museum of Art and the U-M Arts Initiative\, is proud to present Voices of Resistance in Academia: A viewing of the film Clusterluck. This award winning documentary highlights the journey of faculty participating in a cluster hire initiative. By exploring the journey of these faculty members as they traverse academia\, we hope to offer information on how to create effective initiatives designed to diversify faculty and improve the educational experience of college student populations.\n\nSpeakers:\n-Candace N.

Antiferromagnets (AFMs) have zero net magnetization\, so AFM domains are immune to perturbing magnetic field. This leads to the prospect of robust magnetic storage. However\, this robustness also means that manipulating fully-compensated AFM order is extremely difficult. We report the surprising observation of helicity-dependent optical control of fully compensated antiferromagnetic (AFM) order in 2D even-layered MnBi2Te4\, a topological Axion insulator no magnetization. We demonstrated helicity-dependent optical creation of AFM domain walls by double induction beams and the direct reversal of AFM domains by ultrafast pulses. The control and reversal of AFM domains and domain walls by light helicity have never been achieved in any fully-compensated AFM. To understand this optical control\, we studied an AFM circular dichroism (CD) proportional to the AFM order\, which only appears in reflection but is absent in transmission. We showed that the optical control and CD both arise from the optical Axion electrodynamics. The Axion induction provides the possibility to optically control a family of PT-symmetric AFMs such as Cr2O3\, even-layered CrI3\, and possibly pseudo-gap state in cuprates.\n\nReference: \nJ. Qiu\, et al. “Axion optical induction of antiferromagnetic order” Nature Materials s41563-023-01493-5 (2023).\n\nBio: Suyang Xu received PhD in the Physics Department of Princeton University under the supervision of Prof. M. Zahid Hasan. During his phd\, Xu experimentally realized a wide range of new topological phases of matter\, including the discovery of the Weyl semimetal in the TaAs class of material\, which was selected as a top10 breakthrough in physics in 2015. In 2016\, Xu moved to MIT Physics for postdoc under the supervision of Prof. Nuh Gedik. There\, Xu pioneered in nonlinear optical studies of topological materials including photocurrents\, nonlinear Hall and second-harmonic generation. In 2020\, Xu started his independent career in the department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology at Harvard as an assistant professor.

Polarization and the Past DESCRIPTION:The monuments\, sites\, and traditions we call “heritage” are more than passive mirrors to the past. Through careful acts of selection\, preservation\, and mobilization\, heritage represents ways for societies to affect or resist political change. In recent years\, heritage has been mobilized in fierce disputes linked to processes of political polarization\, from riots over statues in the United States to the razing of architecture in India and Bangladesh. Such disputes can tear down the social fabric that holds societies together\, but they may also give rise to desired changes that repairs and strengthens that fabric. To understand the role of heritage in such processes represents a complex interdisciplinary challenge that affects how we will come to see the past\, the political present\, and ourselves tomorrow. With case studies from around the world\, the research program \"Polarization and the Past\" seeks to deepen our understanding of the complex dynamics between heritage and polarization that characterize liberal democracies of our time.\n \nAdam Hjorthén is Associate Professor of history and Senior Lecturer in North American Studies at the Swedish Institute for North American Studies (SINAS) at Uppsala University\, Sweden.\n \nTania Islas Weinstein is Assistant Professor of Political Science at McGill University.\n \nJennifer McCoy is Regent’s Professor of Political Science at Georgia State University and Nonresident Scholar at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace\, as well as Research Affiliate at CEU’s Democracy Institute in Budapest.\n \nElisabeth Niklasson is Lecturer in Archaeology and Director of the Cultural Heritage Programme at University of Aberdeen.\n \nTahmina Rahman is Assistant Professor of Political Science at Rollins College.\n\nRegistration is required for this Zoom webinar at http://myumi.ch/m7mRm\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact emergingdemocracies@umich.edu.

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.

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 quantum electrodynamics\, Weinberg's soft photon theorem is nothing but the Ward identity of a gauge transformation whose parameter is non-trivial at infinity. Likewise\, Low's tree-level subleading soft photon theorem is the Ward identity of a gauge transformation whose parameter diverges linearly at infinity. More recently\, it has been shown that Low's theorem receives loop corrections that are logarithmic in soft photon energy. Then\, it is natural to ask whether such corrections are associated with some asymptotic symmetry of the S-matrix. There have been proposals for conserved charges whose Ward identities yield the loop-corrected soft theorems\, but a clear symmetry interpretation remains elusive. We explore this question in the context of scalar QED\, in hopes of shedding light on the connection between asymptotic symmetries and loop-corrected soft theorems.

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.

With the increasing availability of data and computing power comes increased threats to privacy\, as published statistics can more easily be used to reconstruct sensitive personal data. Formal privacy (FP) methods\, like differential privacy (DP)\, provably limit such information leakage by injecting carefully chosen randomized noise into published statistics. However\, the way DP accounts for privacy degradation requires this noise be injected into every statistic dependent on the confidential dataset. This fails to reflect data curator needs\, social\, legal or ethical requirements\, and complex dependency structures between public and confidential datasets. In this talk\, I'll discuss statistical methodology that addresses these problems. We propose a FP framework with novel characterizations of disclosure risk when assessing collections of statistics wherein only some statistics are published with DP guarantees. We demonstrate FP properties maintained by our proposed framework\, propose data release mechanisms which satisfy our proposed definition\, and prove the optimality properties of downstream statistical estimators based on these mechanism outputs. For this talk\, I'll discuss a few end-to-end data analysis examples in public health and surveys\, showing how theoretical trade-offs between privacy\, utility\, and computation time manifest in practice when assessing disclosure risks and statistical utility. I'll conclude with a discussion on the implications of this work for survey researchers\, focusing on opportunities to incorporate privacy by design in survey planning\, experimental design\, and other data collection operations.\n\nJeremy Seeman is a Michigan Data Science Fellow at the Michigan Institute for Data Science (MIDAS) and MPSDS.

This goal can be achieved by joint analyses of multiple cosmic structure tracers\, including galaxies\, shears\, and galaxy clusters. However\, practical applications are hindered by two significant challenges: a lack of realistic mocks that consistently model all three different tracers and enormous computational demands on likelihood inferences. In this talk\, I will show two recent efforts at solving these two obstacles. I will show the Cardinal simulation\, featuring unparalleled accuracy in color-dependent clustering and cluster abundance. I will then describe the new machine learning-based likelihood inference tool that speeds up the survey analyses by a factor of 50. Finally\, I will show some prospects of the combined analyses on constraining the impact of baryonic feedback on cosmic structures.

We extend the typical binary-treatment framework to a setting with multiple treatments\, and outline a set of assumptions under which standard 2SLS regressions recover causal and margin-specific treatment effects. Under these assumptions\, 2SLS regressions applied to data on felony cases in Virginia imply that conviction leads to a large and long-lasting increase in recidivism relative to dismissal\, consistent with a criminogenic effect of a criminal record. In contrast\, incarceration reduces recidivism\, but only in the short run. The assumptions we outline could be considered restrictive in the random judge framework\, ruling out some reasonable models of judge decision-making. Indeed\, a key assumption is empirically rejected in our data. Nevertheless\, after deriving an expression for the resulting asymptotic bias\, we argue that the failure of this assumption is unlikely to overturn our qualitative conclusions. Finally\, we propose and implement alternative identification strategies. Consistent with our characterization of the bias\, these analyses yield estimates qualitatively similar to those based on the 2SLS estimates. Taken together\, our results suggest that conviction is an important and potentially overlooked driver of recidivism\, while incarceration mainly has shorter-term incapacitation effects.\n\n\nThis talk is presented by the Labor Economics Seminar\, sponsored in part by the Department of Economics with generous gifts given through the Abraham and Thelma Zwerdling Labor Economics Program.

A well-understood first case is that of hyperplane arrangements: there\, the combinatorics of the arrangement controls much of the topology and arithmetic of the complement. We'll survey relevant constructions and calculations for hyperplane arrangements\, such as the characteristic polynomial\, the cohomology ring\, and point-counts over finite fields. Taking those as a model\, one could later apply similar ideas to other positive geometries.

Interestingly\, climate change was predicted (reasonably accurately) more than a century ago by Arrhenius\, and then improved by Callendar in 1938 using better data\, so you can’t say we weren’t warned. In this talk\, I will discuss the history\, the current state and future implications of anthropogenic climate change. In 2020\, President Schlissel established the President’s Commission on Carbon Neutrality to develop a plan for U-M to do its part in meeting its own emission reduction strategy. I will discuss some of the important conclusions of that plan and the progress made thus far in achieving its goals. Finally\, if there is time I will discuss solar technologies that can cost effectively have an enormous impact in reducing global use of fossil fuels in the near term.

The study of Brownian motions on metric graphs has garnered significant interest in recent years due to wide-ranging applications in fields like mathematical physics and biology. This talk will provide a gentle introduction to the study of Brownian motions on metric graphs from the ground up\, work through some simple examples of metric trees\, and compute transition densities of Brownian motions on them. Finally\, I will give an overview of some important results in the study of Brownian motions on infinite symmetric metric trees and outline some minor results pertaining to Brownian motions on metric trees that were obtained during my time at the Indiana University Mathematics REU in Summer 2023.

The master equation is typically a non-linear\, partial differential equation. While the master equation's well-posedness is known\, an analytical solution is not known. What's more\, classical discretization methods for solving the master equation suffer from the curse of dimensionality. In this joint work with Asaf Cohen and Mathieu Lauriere\, we study two algorithms to efficiently solve the master equation in many dimensions. We call one algorithm the Deep Backward Mean Field Game method (DBMFG) and the other is the Deep Galerkin Method (DGM) of Sirignano and Spiliopoulos. We provide novel proofs of the correctness of the algorithms. Due to the structure of the master equation\, we cannot rely on the argument of Sirignano and Spiliopoulos for correctness of the DGM in this application\, nor can we rely on the proof of an analogous deep backward method introduced by Pham et. al. for the DBMFG. Instead\, we use the structure of the MFG to overcome these difficulties. Time permitting\, I will conclude with some of the numerical results.

We characterize the Pareto optimal levels of government bonds and the associated monetary policy adjustments that should accompany Pareto-improving bond issuances. The paper introduces a simple phase diagram to analyze the global equilibrium dynamics of inflation\, interest rates\, and labor earnings in response to changes in the stock of government debt. The framework also provides a tractable tool to explore the use of fiscal policy to escape the Effective Lower Bound (ELB) on nominal interest rates and the resolution of the “forward guidance puzzle.” A common theme throughout is that following the monetary policy guidance from the standard Ricardian framework leads to excess fluctuations in income and inflation.

Participants will develop a deeper understanding of what the term “community engagement” means\, as well as the many forms it might take - from research and course-based projects to philanthropy\, activism\, policy\, and direct service. Across all these forms of engagement\, participants will learn concepts and actions that promote equitable partnerships\, center community-defined priorities\, and disrupt entrenched power dynamics between universities and community members. Participants will also discuss real-world community engagement scenarios that ask them to apply what they’ve learned in the workshop to various situations. \n\n**New for 2023-24\, this workshop is an updated version of Ginsberg’s long-standing Entering\, Engaging\, and Exiting (E3) session.

DESCRIPTION:“I tell my students\, “When you get these jobs that you have been so brilliantly trained for\, just remember that your real job is that if you are free\, you need to free somebody else.

With guest lecture by Anil Maheshwari\, PhD\, Professor of Management and Information Systems\, Maharishi International University. Joined by: Marion Hayden and Marcus Elliott\, U-M Professors of Jazz and Contemporary Improvisation in performance and panel discussion.\n\nJazz musicians frequently recount moments of profound unity among players\, listeners\, and performance environment. Athletes likewise describe peak moments where an entire team functions as a single organism. The same holds true for teams of surgeons during delicate medical operations\, where anything less than optimal collective synchronization can mean the difference between life and death.\n\nAn emerging body of scientific research suggests that these experiences may go beyond mere feelings of collective unity and involve connection with an underlying field of consciousness that unites all of humanity\, and perhaps\, as long upheld by wisdom traditions across the globe\, all of life and creation. Leading research institutions in this field include Institute for Noetic Sciences\, Institute for Global Consciousness\, Global Consciousness Project\, International Consciousness Research Laboratories\, and Maharishi International University. The exploration of collective consciousness\, though challenging academically\, may serve as a vital bridge between ancient wisdom and cutting-edge scientific investigation.\n\nJoin us as Dr. Anil Maheshwari presents research that takes the concept of collective consciousness to a transformative level. A 17-year longitudinal study suggests that large meditation gatherings can generate a harmonizing effect on society\, resulting in reduced crime\, violence\, accidents\, and illness. The talk will explore implications for regional and global peace\, ecological sustainability\, the resolution of political and ideological tensions\, and other applications.\n\nThe arts—particularly improvised music—will also be considered for both its rich manifestations of collective consciousness and also as a bridge between scientific and spiritual inquiry. The collective consciousness principle\, with deep roots in African wisdom\, also poses important ramifications for elevating racial justice discourse from prevailing deficiency narratives to evolutionary thinking.\n\nFor more information\, please see attached press release.
