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.

These units of memory\, or engrams\, are poetic portals through which we time travel\, gaining hindsight and foresight\, more meaning and greater wisdom\, and hopes for a future less encumbered. Beyond reminiscences of technicolor sunsets\, perhaps memories are simply the brain's records of endless repetitions and familiar neural pathways.\n\nIn an era of iPhones\, Macbooks\, Instagram\, and Facebook\, everything that’s happened to us in recent memory is at our immediate disposal and made to look better than the original … every day of every year\, every meal of every trip\, every postcard destination. With constant 24/7 access to the newsreel of our own lives\, are we losing our innate ability to remember what matters in the process? \n\nIn Digital Engrams\, L.A. artist Gabriela Ruiz combines sound\, video\, light and sculpture to create unexpected environments that challenge our sensibilities. The installation considers how images function on and off the screen\, and how memories real and curated are the crux of personal and cultural identity. Who do we think we are in this life or the eternal life on the internet hereafter? \n\nRuiz’s spatial inquiries grapple with the potential erasure of the rituals of memorialization and the richness of material culture so important in her own Latinx heritage and to her sense of self.\n\n–Amanda Krugliak\, IH Arts Curator\n\nAbout the artist:\nGabriela Ruiz is a self-taught artist whose practice blends diverse forms of expression and media\, including sculpture\, video\, painting\, and apparel design. Her sculptures incorporate found objects and industrial materials\, such as thrift store furniture and insulation foam. Strongly influenced by growing up in L.A.’s San Fernando Valley to immigrant parents from Mexico\, Ruiz’s practice is a reflection of the DIY work ethic she was raised under\, the vibrancy of Mexican cultural and artistic traditions\, and her exposure to subculture and fantasy at a young age as a means to escape the realities of daily life.\n\nOne of L.A.’s rising young talents\, she presented her solo show Stream at the Palm Springs Art Museum in 2022\, part of the museum's Outburst project.\n\n*Gabriela Ruiz is the Jean Yokes Woodhead Visiting Artist at the Institute for the Humanities. This exhibition is part of LSA's fall 2023 Art & Resistance theme semester.* UID:110231-21824614@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/110231 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Theme Semester,Visual Arts LOCATION:202 S.

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.

The writing portion is completed on paper and it is worth a total of 100 points.b. The reading portion is completed on Canvas site\, and it is worth a total of 48 points.c. Right after finishing with the reading portion\, each student will have a follow-up interview with a proctor. The interviews last approximately 15 minutes and it is worth a total of 20 points.Important: a. The interview portion will be weighted most heavily as it will be used to validate performance on the other portions. The final result/score/rating will thus be based on the student’s performance on the interview above all. Rating of performance on the writing or reading portions is secondary. b. Students who receive 60% or above will be placed in Arabic 401 and thus placed out of the language requirement.c. Students who are not able to write in Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) do not need to take the placement test and they will be advised to enroll in Arabic 101.Where can I view my results?Placement results are posted within 7 business days after the test.You will not be notified of your score automatically. You may view your placements via: Wolverine Access > Student Business > Academic Records > View Placement Exam Results.Important information about the test* Placements are valid for only one year. If you fail to register in the course that you are placed in\, you will be required to retake the test.* Retaking the placement test is only permitted after the placement results expire.* The test assesses students’ proficiency in Modern Standard Arabic (MSA)\, NOT colloquial Arabic.  * If you speak an Arabic dialect but you do not know how to read or write or have little knowledge\, feel free to register in Arabic 101.* Students who know some Arabic because they came from an Arabic-speaking household or have studied Arabic before\, must take the Arabic proficiency test in order to determine their placement.* Students who have taken Arabic at other institutions and wish to continue their Arabic study at UM must take the placement test to determine their level. Credits for Arabic study undertaken at another institution prior to joining UM or in a summer program while attending UM\, transfer in as generic departmental credits and students must take the placement test to determine credit equivalencies to UM courses.* If you place in or beyond the 401 level\, you will have satisfied the LSA language requirement. * Students are encouraged to take a placement test as early as possible in their studies in order to determine the level they should enroll in\, or if they test out of the language requirement. This is extremely important to avoid delays in graduation and complications with placement.* Arabic 101\, 201\, 401\, 501 are offered ONLY in the Fall semester\, and Arabic 102\, 202\, 402\, 504 are ONLY offered in the Winter semester.* The Summer Language Institute (June & July) offers intensive Arabic 103 (the equivalent of Arabic 101 &102\, combined)\, Arabic 203 (the equivalent of Arabic 201 & 202\, combined)\, and Arabic 401 & 402.If you have questions regarding the placement test\, please contact the program director at\, mesarabicprogram@umich.edu.

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.

Kaladharan writer and art-critic will speak briefly at the outset and in between the demonstration on the history\, aesthetics and transformations of the art-form. \n\nPart of the U-M Fall 2023 Festival of Asian Music\nhttps://smtd.umich.edu/asian-music-festival/\n\nKathakali\, literally story-play\, is a highly evolved dance-theatre tradition that originated in Kerala\, south India\, in the 17th century. It is an amazing amalgam of dance\, drama\, and music\; vocal and instrumental. The facial makeup & costuming of Kathakali are both stylized and semi-realistic. The ornamentations in Kathakali are intricate\, intriguing and incredibly elaborate. It takes three to four hours for a Kathakali actor to transform himself/herself into a Kathakali character. Traditionally Kathakali plays dramatize stories from the great Indian epics: the Ramayana\, Mahabharata\, and Srimad Bhagawatha.\n\nPresented by the Center for World Performance Studies with support from the School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, the Center for South Asian Studies\, and the U.S. Department of Education Title VI grant.\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to participate in this event\, please contact Center for World Performance Studies\, at cwps.information@umich.edu or call 734-936-2777\, at least one week in advance of this event.

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/qGWbE\n\nThis event is a feature of the U-M Fall 2023 Festival of Asian Music which offers the public new perspectives on music traditions and adaptations from Japan\, Korea\, China\, and South and Southeast Asia.\n \n This lecture explores the little-studied impact of audio-based military technology on wider society\, beyond the military sector and beyond Western contexts. In 1941\, Japan’s elementary schools\, renamed National People’s Schools\, provided new musical training in perfect pitch to strengthen Japan’s national defense efforts in wartime. “Explosive sound training” (*bakuon kyōiku*) taught children to identify recorded explosive sounds of enemy aircraft\, though ultimately such training could not mitigate widespread destruction.\n \n Keisuke Yamada has served as a Japan Studies Postdoctoral Fellow at the Asian Studies Center\, University of Pittsburgh\, Pennsylvania. He received his PhD in ethnomusicology at the University of Pennsylvania and his MMus in historical musicology at Northwestern University\, Illinois. He is the author of *Supercell Featuring Hatsune Miku* (Bloomsbury Academic\, 2017). His other peer-reviewed work has appeared in *Asian Music*\, *Ethnomusicology Forum*\, *Japan Forum*\, *Japanese Studies*\, *Journal of Japanese Studies* (forthcoming 2024)\, *Technology and Culture*\, *the Asia-Pacific Journal*\, and *the Oxford Handbook of Economic Ethnomusicology*\, among others. His doctoral dissertation\, “Ecologies of Instrumentality: The Politics and Practice of Sustainable Shamisen Making\,” received the 2021 Northeastern Association of Graduate Schools Doctoral Dissertation Award in Arts & Humanities. He has been completing a book manuscript entitled *Ecologies of Sound: Noise\, Music\, and Silencing in Industrial Japan*. The book offers a sound-centered analysis of the logic and interplay of global capitalism\, militarism\, and industrialization that have shaped the soundscapes and sound-politics of twentieth- and twenty-first-century Japan. The book manuscript is currently under revision for Duke University Press.\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.

Scholars whose social identities or scholarship focus on marginalized and underrepresented groups\, such as Black women and trans scholars\, are subject to constant surveillance and routine attacks based not on the subject of their work but for simply doing the jobs that their institutions hire them to do. Across the country\, these scholars experience threatening emails and letters\, placement on watch lists\, doxxing of personal information\, amongst other forms of intimidation\, harm\, and violence. This panel discussion will explore how institutions can be better stewards and supporters of the scholars that advance institutional missions and\, through their research\, contribute to a more equitable and just society.\n\n\nSpeakers:\n\nTrachette Jackson\nAssociate Vice President for Research - Diversity\, Equity & Inclusion Initiatives in the Office of the Vice President for Research\; University Diversity & Social Transformation Professor\; and Professor of Mathematics at the University of Michigan\n\nElizabeth R.

Pitts is an Assistant Professor in the School of Industrial Engineering and a Faculty Associate with the Center on Aging and the Life Course (CALC) at Purdue University in West Lafayette\, IN. He received a B.S. in Industrial Engineering from Louisiana State University in 2010 and a M.S.E. and Ph.D. in Industrial and Operations Engineering from the University of Michigan (UM) in 2013 and 2016\, respectively. Prior to his faculty appointment\, he was a Research Fellow at the UM Center for Healthcare Engineering and Patient Safety (CHEPS). Dr. Pitts’ research interests are in the areas of human factors\, human-automation/AI interaction\, cyber-human-physical systems\, interface design\, and gerontechnology in complex transportation and work environments\, such as driving and aviation. His research has been funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF)\, Department of Transportation (DOT)\, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)\, National Institute on Disability\, Independent Living\, and\nRehabilitation Research (NIDILRR)\, and Ford Motor Company. Dr. Pitts has received several honors and awards\, including a 2023 NSF CAREER award and the 1 st place winner ($1M) of the 2022 U.S. DOT Inclusive Design Challenge (IDC) for his team’s EASI RIDER innovation\, a life-size autonomous vehicle for individuals with disabilities.\n\n\n\nAbstract:\nIn the coming years\, automation and artificial intelligence (AI) will continue to penetrate every area of human life including work\, transportation\, healthcare\, and leisure environments. These advancements promise many benefits\, such as improving public safety\, extending human abilities\, and enabling accessibility. However\, as automation and AI become increasingly integrated into our daily activities\, several societal challenges and unanswered research questions must be addressed related to the roles/responsibilities of humans interacting with autonomous systems\, the impact of automation on human behavior and performance\, and the perception of (potential) users of intelligent systems. In this presentation\, Dr. Pitts will share insights from a series of research projects aimed to develop and evaluate various autonomous systems in transportation and work environments and for different types of users. Findings from this research program contribute to the broader discussion on how to design effective human automation systems and interfaces for future applications. This work is also helping to develop theories on human perception and performance\, shape policies on accessibility\, and promote safety in safety-critical environments.

Yet\, without strong scientific data that informs the conditions under which global changes will alter biodiversity to cause cascading impacts on ecosystem functioning\, planning for conservation\, restoration\, and management will be ineffective. While these research challenges are global in scale\, experiments and sampling to measure changes in the composition and function of ecological communities must be done at local scales. In the past 15 years\, distributed experiments have emerged as a powerful tool to address these challenges. I will discuss my experience with conceiving and implementing a globally distributed\, collaborative network of identically replicated grassland experiments\, the Nutrient Network\, that is generating unique data on the condition-dependence of biotic responses to global change. In my talk\, I will present some of the network’s insights into the interactions among ongoing global changes to Earth’s ecosystems\, including nitrogen influx and climate\, that control biodiversity and ecosystem processes in the world’s grassland ecosystems.\n\nWebsite: https://z.umn.edu/borer-lab UID:112134-21828492@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/112134 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Biology,Biosciences,Bsbsigns,department of ecology and evolutionary biology,ecology,Ecology & Biology,Ecology And Evolutionary Biology,eeb LOCATION:Biological Sciences Building - 1010 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231006T181539 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231102T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231102T163000 SUMMARY:Well-being:First-Generation Listening Circle: First Year Students DESCRIPTION:Listening circles are opportunities for people to speak and listen to one another in an atmosphere of safety\, decorum\, and equality.

This is exciting\, as ULXs have been theorized as potential intermediate mass black holes. New black hole mergers detected by LIGO-Virgo may also be associated with GC’s\, underscoring the importance of ULXs as a potential linkage between GC electromagnetic and gravitational wave source populations. GC ULXs show a diverse behaviour with regards to temporal variability\, both on long (16 years) and short (~hours) timescales\, in both the X-ray and optical wavelengths. They can switch on or off over the course of many years or remain at a constant luminosity. Some sources exhibit a long-term change in their luminosity with no discernible variability within the other observations\, other sources show a stunning long-term variability while also demonstrating variability on the timescale of around four hours. I will undertake a comprehensive comparison of the temporal variability of the zoo of currently known GC ULXs\, discuss the possible origins of some of the extreme variability observed\, and how this informs on our knowledge of black hole populations in extragalactic globular clusters.

For radial data\, we obtain a pointwise dispersive estimate with the natural decay rate of 3/2. Our proof uses the spectral theory of strongly singular potentials to obtain an expression for the evolution kernel. A semiclassical turning point analysis of the kernel then allows the time decay to be extracted via oscillatory integral estimates. This is joint work with E. Toprak\, B. Vergara\, and J. Zou.

We integrate advances in chemistry\, engineering\, and data science to characterize native biological systems at unprecedented resolution and details and to quantitatively profile the fundamental mechanisms that govern the system’s ensemble behavior. We have pioneered 'Single Virus Genomics' by developing microfluidic platforms that enable direct profiling of individual virus genomes\, bypassing the need for virus culture. This technology allows large-scale\, unbiased profiling of single virus genomes\, enabling a quantitative assessment of viral evolution and infection dynamics. In parallel\, we are actively developing and applying spatial omics tools to leverage spatial information to identify the key molecular and cellular features that drive system-level phenotypes. Molecular and cellular interactions are mediated by physical contact. Thus\, the spatial organization of molecules and cells is strongly linked to their functional organization. In my talk\, I will present our technical innovations in achieving single virus sequencing and demonstrate the application of this novel technology in the quantitative assessment of influenza reassortment. Reassortment is a crucial mechanism for zoonosis\, facilitating the transmission of viruses from animals to humans.

It reads these contradictions through the history of feminized\, racialized\, and informalized wage forms like piece-rate and tips and connects that history to contemporary comparisons of service work to sex work.

With access 24/7 to the newsreel of our own lives\, Are we losing our own ability to remember and our own sense of direction in the process? The notion that our brains create memories\, first stored and then revisited\, surprisingly dates back to the times of Plato and Aristotle. These units of memory or engrams are portals through which we time travel\, gaining hindsight and foresight\, more meaning and greater wisdom\, in hopes of a future less encumbered. \nIn the Institute for the Humanities Gallery exhibition Digital Engrams\, LA artist Gabriela Ruiz conjures and explores a hybrid space\, combining sound\, video\, and assemblage. Ruiz’s immersive visual inquiry considers how images function on and off the screen\, and how our memories real and curated are at the center of our personal and cultural identities…Who do we think we are in this life or our life on the eternal internet hereafter?\nRuiz is a self-taught artist whose practice blends diverse forms of expression and media\, including sculpture\, video\, painting\, and apparel design. Her sculptures incorporate found objects and industrial materials\, such as thrift store furniture and insulation foam. Strongly influenced by growing up in LA’s San Fernando Valley to immigrant parents from Mexico\, Ruiz’s practice is a reflection of the DIY work ethic she was raised with\, the vibrancy of Mexican cultural and artistic traditions\, and her exposure to subculture and fantasy at a young age as a means to escape the realities of daily life. One of LA’s rising young talents\, she presented her solo showStream at the Palm Springs Art Museum 2022\, part of the museum'\;s Outburst project.

These units of memory\, or engrams\, are poetic portals through which we time travel\, gaining hindsight and foresight\, more meaning and greater wisdom\, and hopes for a future less encumbered. Beyond reminiscences of technicolor sunsets\, perhaps memories are simply the brain's records of endless repetitions and familiar neural pathways.\n\nIn an era of iPhones\, Macbooks\, Instagram\, and Facebook\, everything that’s happened to us in recent memory is at our immediate disposal and made to look better than the original … every day of every year\, every meal of every trip\, every postcard destination. With constant 24/7 access to the newsreel of our own lives\, are we losing our innate ability to remember what matters in the process?\n\nIn *Digital Engrams*\, L.A. artist Gabriela Ruiz combines sound\, video\, light and sculpture to create unexpected environments that challenge our sensibilities. The installation considers how images function on and off the screen\, and how memories real and curated are the crux of personal and cultural identity. Who do we think we are in this life or the eternal life on the internet hereafter?\n\nRuiz’s spatial inquiries grapple with the potential erasure of the rituals of memorialization and the richness of material culture so important in her own Latinx heritage and to her sense of self.\n\n–Amanda Krugliak\, IH Arts Curator\n\nAbout the artist:\nGabriela Ruiz is a self-taught artist whose practice blends diverse forms of expression and media\, including sculpture\, video\, painting\, and apparel design. Her sculptures incorporate found objects and industrial materials\, such as thrift store furniture and insulation foam. Strongly influenced by growing up in L.A.’s San Fernando Valley to immigrant parents from Mexico\, Ruiz’s practice is a reflection of the DIY work ethic she was raised under\, the vibrancy of Mexican cultural and artistic traditions\, and her exposure to subculture and fantasy at a young age as a means to escape the realities of daily life.\n\n*Gabriela Ruiz is the Jean Yokes Woodhead Visiting Artist at the Institute for the Humanities. This event is part of LSA's 2023 fall Arts & Resistance theme semester.* UID:110234-21824651@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/110234 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Theme Semester,Visual Arts LOCATION:202 S.

Berkhofer Lecture DESCRIPTION:The Native American Studies program at University of Michigan proudly presents author Angeline Boulley (Sault Ste. Marie Chippewa) as the 2023 Robert J. Berkhofer Lecturer.\n\nAngeline Boulley\, an enrolled member of the Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians\, is a storyteller who writes about her Ojibwe community in Michiganʻs Upper Peninsula. She is a former Director of the Office of Indian Education at the U.S. Department of Education.\nPreviously she served as Education Director for her tribe\, and also serfed on the Board of Regents at Bay Mills Community College. Angeline lives in southwest Michigan\, but her home will always be on Sugar Island.\n\nFirekeeperʻs Daughter\, her debut novel\, was an instant #1 NYT Bestseller\, and is the 2023-24 Michigan Humanities Great Michigan Read selection. The book has been named the Walter Dean Myers Award for Outstanding Childrenʻs Literature\, the Printz Award\, the William C. Morris award for YA debut literature\, and was an American Indian Youth Literature Award Honor Book. Her second novel\, Warrior Girl Unearthed\, was released in May 2023.\n\nThe Berkhofer Lecture series (named for a former U-M professor and founder of the field of Native American studies) was established in 2014 by an alumni gift from the Dan and Carmen Brenner family of Seattle\, Washington. In close consultation with the Brenners\, Native American Studies created a public lecture series featuring prominent\, marquee speakers who would draw audiences from different communities—faculty\; students\, Ann Arbor\; Detroit\, and Michigan\ntribal communities as well as writers and readers generally. The Berkhofer Lectures are grand affairs\, drawing over three hundred in attendance at each event. With the event now streamed online\, our audiences are worldwide. Past speakers include literary giants N. Scott Momaday\, Joy Harjo\, and Gerald Vizenor. Our focus has shifted more recently to highlight emerging Indigenous literary talent including Mary Kathryn Nagle\, and Tommy Orange. Most recently we presented biologist and MacArthur Foundation Fellow Robin Wall Kimmerer.\n\nNative American students at U-M have long expressed their desire for greater Native Americans visibility both on campus and off\, and we believe that the Berkhofer Lecture takes a meaningful step in that direction. The statewide publicity generated has also become a valuable recruitment incentive for Native American students. Most obviously\, the speakers we invite have greatly enhanced the mission and work of Native American Studies at U-M.\n\nThis is a hybrid event.

University Ave.\nFree and open to the public\n\nFamed South Indian Kathakali dancer Manoj Kumar from the premier tertiary conservatory of South Indian music and dance\, Kerala Kalamandalam\, will offer a solo performance in full make up and costumes with an introduction from Kathakali scholar V. Kaladharan. Kumar will appear on the stage as the omnipotent Ravana\, the king of Srilanka. This anti-hero in the great Indian Epic\, Ramayana\, recollects the major milestones in his life right from his childhood days. Q&A following the performance.\n\nPart of the U-M Fall 2023 Festival of Asian Music\nhttps://smtd.umich.edu/asian-music-festival/\n\nKathakali\, literally story-play\, is a highly evolved dance-theatre tradition that originated in Kerala\, south India\, in the 17th century. It is an amazing amalgam of dance\, drama\, and music\; vocal and instrumental. The facial makeup & costuming of Kathakali are both stylized and semi-realistic. The ornamentations in Kathakali are intricate\, intriguing and incredibly elaborate. It takes three to four hours for a Kathakali actor to transform himself/herself into a Kathakali character. Traditionally Kathakali plays dramatize stories from the great Indian epics: the Ramayana\, Mahabharata\, and Srimad Bhagawatha.\n\nPresented by the Center for World Performance Studies with support from the School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, the Center for South Asian Studies\, and the U.S. Department of Education Title VI grant.\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to participate in this event\, please contact Center for World Performance Studies\, at cwps.information@umich.edu or call 734-936-2777\, at least one week in advance of this event.

This time\, we've got a cheeky twist for you\, courtesy of French composer Jacques Offenbach. Orpheus is not the divine son of Apollo but instead a lackluster music teacher\, and his marriage to Eurydice is far from harmonious. Eurydice secretly loves Aristée\, who is actually Pluto in disguise. As Aristée serenades with a pastoral ode to sheep\, Eurydice suspects foul play\, believing Orpheus plans to harm him. In reality\, Orpheus and Pluto scheme to eliminate her. Pluto dupes Eurydice into the deadly trap\, revealing his true form as she succumbs in. They descend to the Underworld\, leaving a note for Orpheus. Just as Orpheus begins to revel in his newfound freedom\, Public Opinion storms in\, threatening to besmirch his name unless he goes to the Underworld to rescue his wife. Reluctantly\, Orpheus embarks on his epic quest to bring Eurydice back from the depths\, setting the stage for Offenbach's delightful operatic journey.\n\nHere's the kicker: We're singing this in French\, but don't worry\, the dialogue is in good ol' English. The production is set in the late 1950s\, right in the eve of John F. Kennedy's presidential campaign - and trust us\, it's going to be a blast. So\, mark your calendars\, dust off your dancing shoes\, and get ready to twist\, groove\, and laugh your way through \"Orpheus in the Underworld.\" It's a special spin you won't want to miss! \n\nSee you at the show!\n\nConductor: Brian Garman \nStage Director: Mo Zhou \n\nScenic Design: Kevin Judge\nCostume Design: Sarah Oliver\nLighting Design: Marie Yokoyama\n\nCast (in the order of vocal appearance)\n\nPublic Opinion: Qirong Liang\, Daiyao Zhong\nEURYDICE: Sohyun Cho\, Goitsemang Lehobye\nOrpheus: Carson Arcuri\, Alexander Nick\nAristée/Pluto: Tyrese Byrd\, Spencer VanDellen\nJupiter: Amante Pando Girard\, Jack Morin\nJunon: Hannah Yan\nDiane: Pelagia Pamel\nVénus: Yongxin Zhou\nCupidon: Veronica Koz\nMinerve: Maggie Reed\nMars: Thomas Long\nMercury: Ian Pathak\nJohn Styx: Loren Reash-Henz\nBacchus/Elvis Presley: Benjamin Isyk\n\nChorus: Ian Danaher\, Jake Bullard\, Amelie Besch\, Kyleigh Burtley\, Mira Grayton\, Jamiyah Hudson\, Molly Levin\, Allison Lange\, Isaiah Liggins\, Brendan Lockhart\, Mark Pettaway III\, Amber Sosa\, Brooke Studebaker.\n UID:108261-21819188@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/108261 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Comedy,In Person,Music,Storytelling,Theater LOCATION:Power Center for the Performing Arts CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231102T180047 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231102T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231102T203000 SUMMARY:Exercise / Fitness:Swing Ann Arbor Swing II: November Swingout Bootcamp DESCRIPTION:WHAT: It’s back again for a second month! In this course\, we will build on the Lindy Hop essentials of Swing I and learn how to do a swingout. Swingouts are a fundamental (and by far the most recognizable) move of Lindy Hop! They require dancers to hone their connection with a partner and can lay the groundwork for many new moves. We will dedicate most of the time in this class to cleaning up the swingouts you will learn in the first few weeks. We will also focus on musicality and teach you a few fun swingout variations (time permitting).  COURSE PREREQUISITES: Swing I or equivalent. You should feel comfortable switching between 6-count and 8-count Lindy Hop\, have experience with some basic variations (e.g. yoyos\, Lindy circles)\, and feel confident about your musicality and connection. We will not expect you to know how to do a swingout yet – we will teach you to do one! WHEN: 7:30pm-8:30pm on Thursdays (11/2\, 11/9\, 11/16\, 11/30) **Note: There will be no class the week of November 20th due to Thanksgiving**\n WHERE: Mason Hall Room 1401\, University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor  INSTRUCTORS: Sarah Redman & Steve Losh  PRICING:General Admission 4-Week Pass: $40SAA Member 4-Week Pass: $30Individual Class: $12Acceptable forms of payment: cash\, check\, or PayPal REGISTRATION: Please register in advance by filling out this short form: https://tinyurl.com/SAANovProgressives\ UID:114107-21832355@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114107 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION:Mason Hall CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231004T121747 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231102T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231102T213000 SUMMARY:Performance:John Solari\, piano DESCRIPTION:Graduate student John Solari performs a recital.

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.

These units of memory\, or engrams\, are poetic portals through which we time travel\, gaining hindsight and foresight\, more meaning and greater wisdom\, and hopes for a future less encumbered. Beyond reminiscences of technicolor sunsets\, perhaps memories are simply the brain's records of endless repetitions and familiar neural pathways.\n\nIn an era of iPhones\, Macbooks\, Instagram\, and Facebook\, everything that’s happened to us in recent memory is at our immediate disposal and made to look better than the original … every day of every year\, every meal of every trip\, every postcard destination. With constant 24/7 access to the newsreel of our own lives\, are we losing our innate ability to remember what matters in the process? \n\nIn Digital Engrams\, L.A. artist Gabriela Ruiz combines sound\, video\, light and sculpture to create unexpected environments that challenge our sensibilities. The installation considers how images function on and off the screen\, and how memories real and curated are the crux of personal and cultural identity. Who do we think we are in this life or the eternal life on the internet hereafter? \n\nRuiz’s spatial inquiries grapple with the potential erasure of the rituals of memorialization and the richness of material culture so important in her own Latinx heritage and to her sense of self.\n\n–Amanda Krugliak\, IH Arts Curator\n\nAbout the artist:\nGabriela Ruiz is a self-taught artist whose practice blends diverse forms of expression and media\, including sculpture\, video\, painting\, and apparel design. Her sculptures incorporate found objects and industrial materials\, such as thrift store furniture and insulation foam. Strongly influenced by growing up in L.A.’s San Fernando Valley to immigrant parents from Mexico\, Ruiz’s practice is a reflection of the DIY work ethic she was raised under\, the vibrancy of Mexican cultural and artistic traditions\, and her exposure to subculture and fantasy at a young age as a means to escape the realities of daily life.\n\nOne of L.A.’s rising young talents\, she presented her solo show Stream at the Palm Springs Art Museum in 2022\, part of the museum's Outburst project.\n\n*Gabriela Ruiz is the Jean Yokes Woodhead Visiting Artist at the Institute for the Humanities.

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 my own experience as a former community college and subsequent transfer student\,  I found that it was much more difficult to have access to the same research opportunities and resources as a traditional four year undergraduate student. This is an area where I have always wanted to make a positive change for the community. I finally found the opportunity in 2022\, and the Dead Stars Society\, an astronomy research group at Henry Ford College in Dearborn\,  evolved. In the past year\, we have had five students join our group\, who have collectively analyzed a massive X-ray data-set. We have also received funding to shift gears and focus on analysis of upcoming data from Rubin Observatory/LSST. I would particularly like to discuss what information would be helpful to gain further traction to encourage an expansion of four-year institutions partnering with their local community colleges.

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

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

These systems use the average of individual students’ growth for all the students in a district\, school\, or educator’s class. Averaging growth measures for schools\, districts or educators with few students can result in substantial year-to-year fluctuations. We proposed smoothing the aggregate growth measures across time using the Empirical Best Linear Prediction (EBLP) to improve the accuracy and\, in turn\, stability of the aggregate growth measures. I will discuss the implementation of EBLP for aggregate student achievement growth including the statistical models and estimation methods. I will also discuss the results of applying the method to data in two states.\n\nhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/dan-mccaffrey-1654809/ UID:109434-21822023@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/109434 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:seminar LOCATION:West Hall - 340 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231006T134116 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231103T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231103T140000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Advancing Social Justice: Alum in Residence with Yezenia Sandoval\, MA Education Leadership & Policy U-M ‘21 DESCRIPTION:Are you hoping to advance social justice\, starting with student clubs here at U-M?

All undergraduate and graduate students enrolled at the Ann Arbor\, Dearborn\, or Flint U-M campuses in Fall 2023 are invited to apply to this juried exhibition that explores what can be done to create more just and equitable futures in the 21st Century and beyond.\n The 2023 exhibition will include art of a variety of mediums and will be displayed in four galleries across all three U-M campuses\, including Stamps Gallery (Central Campus\, Ann Arbor)\, Duderstadt Center Gallery (North Campus\, Ann Arbor)\, Riverbank Arts (Flint)\, and Stamelos Gallery (Dearborn). \nThe arts play a central role in shaping cultural and political narratives. Artists\, designers and creatives of diverse backgrounds have been at the forefront of social change by offering alternate models and ways of thinking\, making and creating that do not perpetuate dominant regimes. Creative processes have been used time and again to reveal under-told stories and to resist simple narratives. Regardless of one'\;s personal politics\, an artwork'\;s potential to change hearts and minds is urgent and necessary. \nRespond/ Resist/ Rethink invites students to leverage their creativity to (re)imagine what they can do to create a more just and equitable community in the spaces that they inhabit.\nThroughout the spring\, summer\, and fall of 2023\, U-M students submitted artworks through an open call process. A final list of artworks were chosen for the exhibition by a Selection Committee made up of U-M faculty\, staff\, and students. \n\nThe 2023 RRR Selection Committee members are: \nPedram Baldari\, Jim Cogswell\, Laura Cotton\, Nalani Duarte\, Adrienne Frank\, Benjamin Gaydos\, Kathryn Grabowski-Khairullah\, Quinn Hunter\, Ikalanni Jahi\, Jennifer Junkermeier-Khan\, Joe Levickas\, Srimoyee Mitra\, Kathi Reister\, Chloe Schans\, and Grace Sirman. \nThe 2023 RRR Curatorial Committee members are: \nLaura Cotton\, Nalani Duarte\, Benjamin Gaydos\, Kathryn Grabowski-Khairullah\, Srimoyee Mitra\, and Kathi Reister. \nThe 2023 RRR Organizing Committee members are: Chris Audain\, Adrienne Frank\, Kathryn Grabowski-Khairullah\, Jennifer Junkermeier-Khan\, Joe Levickas\, Srimoyee Mitra\, and Joe Rohrer.

She has won various awards in recognition of her literary contributions: the Formentor Prize for L'età del malessere (1963)\; the Premio Fregene for Isolina (1985)\; the Premio Campiello and Book of the Year Award for La lunga vita di Marianna Ucrìa (1990)\; and the Premio Strega for Buio (1999). She co-founded the Teatro del Porcospino in the 1960s and established the feminist experimental theatre La Maddalena in Rome in 1973. Several films have been made from her books\, and she herself has written screenplays for directors such as Pier Paolo Pasolini\, Marco Ferreri\, Carlo Di Palma\, and Margarethe Von Trotta. In 2013\, Irish Braschi's biographical documentary I Was Born Travelling recounted the story of Maraini's life\, focusing in particular on her childhood imprisonment in a concentration camp in Japan during World War II\, and the journeys she made around the world with her partner Alberto Moravia and close friends Pier Paolo Pasolini and Maria Callas.\n\nSguardo a Oriente is a collection of reportages\, memories\, and stories about various Asian countries\, including Afghanistan\, China\, Korea\, Japan\, India\, Iran\, Palestine\, Pakistan\, Syria\, Tibet\, Turkey\, Vietnam\, and Yemen. In this book\, Maraini's language takes on a new voice\, exploring the typical pace of travel books. Her writing style reflects that of her grandmother Yoï\, her father Fosco\, and her mother Topazia\, who all loved to travel and tell stories about their experiences and the people they met on their journeys.\n\nThis event is part of the XXIII Week of Italian Language in the World and is co-sponsored by the Consulate of Italy in Detroit\, the Dante Alighieri Society of Michigan\, and the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures.\n\nThe conversation will take place primarily in English\, Italian and non-Italian speakers are all welcome to join! \nFor more information please email Giulia Riccò at gricco@umich.edu.

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\, work in non-market strategy suggests that firms have shifted toward an increasingly strategic (rather than compliant) posture vis a vis their regulative environments\, demonstrated through an expanding repertoire of strategies meant to influence\, co-opt\, or subvert legal and regulatory institutions. While the organization-level incentives for such a shift are straightforward\, the political process within firms that would lead internal legal counsel to support this shift is unclear\, given lawyers' professional obligations to protect the integrity of legal and regulatory structures. In this paper\, we shed light on this process by exploring the ascendency of general counsel to firms' top management teams in the post-SOX \"era of compliance\" and the relationship between the GC's strategic ascendency and corporate political activity.

We investigate what these features imply in the context of a repeated strategic interaction. First\, we show that opportunities for intertemporal trade may expand the set of feasible payoffs relative to that in a static interaction. Two distinct sources for such trade are identified: endogenous heterogeneity in the players’ rates of time preference and a hedging motive pertaining to the intertemporal distribution of risk. The set of equilibrium payoffs may on the other hand shrink drastically as many efficient outcomes become unsustainable no matter the level of patience. This “anti-folk” result occurs when the players prefer stage outcomes to be positively correlated rather than independent across time. Intuitively\, such preferences make it inefficient to offset short- term losses with future gains\, while this is needed to ensure that security levels are met on path. We also establish a folk theorem: if security levels are met on path\, such play can be sustained in a subgame perfect equilibrium provided that the players are sufficiently patient.

Within the class of exact NLSE breather solutions on a finite background\, the hierarchy of rational solutions\, which are localized in both time and space\, are known to describe physical prototypes to model extreme wave dynamics on the water surface\, plasma\, Bose-Einstein condensates\, and electromagnetic Kerr media. The talk will focus on the applicability and limitations of hydrodynamic solitons and breathers in unidirectional and directional wave systems. The time-reversal invariance and the effect of dissipation on the evolution of such wave packets will be also elaborated upon. Moreover\, the critical role of breathers in wave engineering applications will be highlighted. \n\nContact: Peter Miller.

Hunt Memorial Lecture-U-M Biomedical Engineering DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nTotal joint replacements (TJR) restore pain-free mobility and function to damaged or diseased cartilage in the articular joints using engineering materials. These load-bearing implant systems typically comprise metal-on-polymer couplings. There are nearly one million total joint replacement surgeries performed annually in the United States with CoCr alloys articulating against ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) comprising the majority of hip\, knee and shoulder replacements (American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons\, 2022). These medical devices must offer extraordinary resistance to wear\, corrosion and fatigue loading. Approximately 12% of these devices require revision due to loosening\, wear-mediated osteolysis (bone loss around the implant)\, fracture of components or failure of the bearing surfaces within their first decade of use.\n\nProfessor Pruitt and her lab have devoted nearly 30 years of research toward the understanding of the complex material behavior in total joint replacement designs. Her work has elucidated many of the primary failure mechanisms found in the bearing systems as well as the inherent trade-offs that exist in the fatigue\, fracture\, wear and oxidation resistance in orthopedic polymers\, and most notably in UHMWPE. These failure schemes are complicated by stress concentrations required for locking mechanisms\, joint articulation\, fixation to surrounding tissues and features in the implants that facilitate retrieval of the device. Well-functioning implants offer 10-20 years of service but generally require at least one revision in the lifetime of a patient. Hence implants must enable a retrieval scheme that minimizes damage to surrounding tissues upon replacement of an implant - such challenges are ever-increasing as demographics shift to younger and more active patients.\n\nProfessor Pruitt’s ongoing research focuses on the characterization of structure-property relationships in orthopedic biomaterials in order to optimize systems for resistance to in-vivo fatigue\, wear and oxidation in TJR. Professor Pruitt will also discuss how such research provides a pathway for inclusive excellence in teaching\, research and mentoring.\n\nBio:\nLisa Pruitt\, Ph.D.\, is Professor of Mechanical Engineering and Bioengineering at the University of California at Berkeley. Dr. Pruitt also is the Director of the Medical Polymer Group at the school. She received her Ph.D. from Brown University and joined the faculty of Mechanical Engineering at UC Berkeley in 1993. \n\nDr. Pruitt has authored more than 300 publications in her research field of failure analysis\, biomaterials and medical devices. The recipient of numerous awards and honors\, her research has been recognized with a Congressional citation\; a National Science Foundation CAREER award\; an Office of Naval Research Young Investigator Award\; and election to the American Institute of Medical and Biological Engineering. Professor Pruitt has also been honored for her commitment to excellence in mentoring\, teaching and outreach. She has received the American Association of Advancement of Sciences Mentoring Award\; the Presidential Award for Excellence in Science\, Mathematics and Engineering Mentoring\; the UC Berkeley Distinguished Teaching Award as well as the Brown Engineering Alumni Medal.\n\nProfessor Pruitt teaches undergraduate and graduate courses in Mechanical Behavior of Engineering Materials\, Failure Analysis\, Polymer Engineering\, Medical Device Design and Personal Leadership. Lisa Pruitt is the author of four books including Soul of a Professor: Memoir of an Un-engineered Life (Merry Dissonance Press\, 2022)\; Mechanics of Biomaterials: Fundamentals for Implant Design (Cambridge University Press\, 2011)\; Horse of Fire: The story of an extraordinary and Knowing Horse as told by JJ Luck (Authorhouse\, 2008\; Amazon\, 2019)\; as well as a children’s book\, Savanna and the Magic Boots (Authorhouse\, 2011).

Consider the (\mu-null) set of points in X whose trajectory completely misses U. Is it true that this exceptional set has Hausdorff dimension less than the dimension of X? And does the same hold for the set of points that visit U less frequently than prescribed by Birkhoff's Ergodic Theorem? The affirmative answer to the first question has been conjectured for actions on homogeneous spaces and proved in several special cases\, for example when X is compact or has rank one. I will sketch a proof of a fairly general\, although not optimal\, answer – for arbitrary \textrm{Ad}-diagonalizable flows on irreducible quotients of semisimple Lie groups. Two main ingredients are effective mixing and the method of integral inequalities for height functions on X. Joint work with Shahriar Mirzadeh.

Through collaborations with her immediate community\, and also using herself as a subject\, Lee draws inspiration from the quotidian\, creating offbeat images that aim to preserve this moment in time\, (re) examine memories (especially those clouded by confusion) all the while asking questions around identity and existence.\n\nLee holds a BFA from the Maurice Kanbar Institute of Film and Television at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts. She is currently pursuing her MFA in Photography at School of the Art Institute of Chicago.\n\nIn Lee’s photographic exploration\, she investigates the profound connection between places and structures and the echoes of trauma that inhabit them. “Holding Places” is an exhibition that immerses viewers into a visual narrative\, inviting them to witness the power of space as holders and conduits for personal memory.\n\nBy reconstructing these places by hand in model scale and rendering them not as they were\, but how she experienced them\, she is able to navigate intimate details and hidden narratives that exist within them. The process of crafting these miniatures becomes a meditative contemplation\, giving Lee time to sit and reflect on these past events.\n\nThrough Lee’s lens\, they capture the visual manifestations of the ghosts of the past. The photographs offer glimpses into spaces where anguish\, conflict and distress have left their imprints\, sometimes visible\, sometimes buried beneath layers of time (and self preservation).

The exhibition features work by U-M students from across all three campuses. Light refreshments will be served.\nIn conjunction with the Fall 2023 Theme Semester: Arts &\; Resistance\, Stamps Gallery is partnering with the U‑M Arts Initiative to expand the 4th annual Respond/​Resist/​Rethink student art exhibition. All undergraduate and graduate students enrolled at the Ann Arbor\, Dearborn\, or Flint U‑M campuses in Fall 2023 are invited to apply to this juried exhibition that explores what can be done to create more just and equitable futures in the 21st Century and beyond.\nThe 2023 exhibition will include art of a variety of mediums and will be displayed in four galleries across all three U‑M campuses\, including Stamps Gallery (Central Campus\, Ann Arbor)\, Duderstadt Center Gallery (North Campus\, Ann Arbor)\, Riverbank Arts (Flint)\, and Stamelos Gallery (Dearborn).\nThe arts play a central role in shaping cultural and political narratives. Artists\, designers and creatives of diverse backgrounds have been at the forefront of social change by offering alternate models and ways of thinking\, making and creating that do not perpetuate dominant regimes. Creative processes have been used time and again to reveal under-told stories and to resist simple narratives. Regardless of one’s personal politics\, an artwork’s potential to change hearts and minds is urgent and necessary. Respond/​Resist/​Rethink invites students to leverage their creativity to (re)imagine what they can do to create a more just and equitable community in the spaces that they inhabit.

The folk-punk quartet DakhaBrakha embraces and reflects the fundamental elements of sound and soul\, creating a world of unexpected new music.

The classic Eastern European folk base is there\, with belting\, complex\, and hypnotic harmonies.” (Hackney Citizen\, UK) UID:109619-21822413@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/109619 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Activism,Advocacy,Ann Arbor,Anthropology,Art,artists,concert,Culture,Diversity,Energy,Folk Music,hill auditorium,History,Human Rights,In Person,Interdisciplinary,International,Mindfulness,multicultural,music,performance,social justice,UMS,university musical society LOCATION:Hill Auditorium CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231031T121702 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231103T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231103T220000 SUMMARY:Performance:Concert Band Chamber Winds DESCRIPTION:Conductor Courtney Snyder\n\nJoin the Concert Band Chamber Winds as they perform works both old and new\, including a memorized and fully staged version of Susato’s Dansyere.\n\nRobert Washburn\, Concertino\n\nMatthew Tommasini\, *Song Without Words* (World Premiere)\n\nChing Ting Chan\, *Shadow Play*\n\nGeorges Bizet/Yosuhide Ito\, *The Magical Carmen* (*Carmen Fantasy\, better translation)\n\nTielman Susato/Patrick Dunnigan\, Selections from the Dansyere UID:108662-21820259@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/108662 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Concert,Free,Music,North Campus LOCATION:Earl V.

This time\, we've got a cheeky twist for you\, courtesy of French composer Jacques Offenbach. Orpheus is not the divine son of Apollo but instead a lackluster music teacher\, and his marriage to Eurydice is far from harmonious. Eurydice secretly loves Aristée\, who is actually Pluto in disguise. As Aristée serenades with a pastoral ode to sheep\, Eurydice suspects foul play\, believing Orpheus plans to harm him. In reality\, Orpheus and Pluto scheme to eliminate her. Pluto dupes Eurydice into the deadly trap\, revealing his true form as she succumbs in. They descend to the Underworld\, leaving a note for Orpheus. Just as Orpheus begins to revel in his newfound freedom\, Public Opinion storms in\, threatening to besmirch his name unless he goes to the Underworld to rescue his wife. Reluctantly\, Orpheus embarks on his epic quest to bring Eurydice back from the depths\, setting the stage for Offenbach's delightful operatic journey.\n\nHere's the kicker: We're singing this in French\, but don't worry\, the dialogue is in good ol' English. The production is set in the late 1950s\, right in the eve of John F. Kennedy's presidential campaign - and trust us\, it's going to be a blast. So\, mark your calendars\, dust off your dancing shoes\, and get ready to twist\, groove\, and laugh your way through *Orpheus in the Underworld*. It's a special spin you won't want to miss! \n\nSee you at the show!\n\nConductor: Brian Garman \nStage Director: Mo Zhou \n\nScenic Design: Kevin Judge\nCostume Design: Sarah Oliver\nLighting Design: Marie Yokoyama\n\nCast (in the order of vocal appearance)\n\nPublic Opinion: Qirong Liang\, Daiyao Zhong\nEURYDICE: Sohyun Cho\, Goitsemang Lehobye\nOrpheus: Carson Arcuri\, Alexander Nick\nAristée/Pluto: Tyrese Byrd\, Spencer VanDellen\nJupiter: Amante Pando Girard\, Jack Morin\nJunon: Hannah Yan\nDiane: Pelagia Pamel\nVénus: Yongxin Zhou\nCupidon: Veronica Koz\nMinerve: Maggie Reed\nMars: Thomas Long\nMercury: Ian Pathak\nJohn Styx: Loren Reash-Henz\nBacchus/Elvis Presley: Benjamin Isyk\n\nChorus: Ian Danaher\, Jake Bullard\, Amelie Besch\, Kyleigh Burtley\, Mira Grayton\, Jamiyah Hudson\, Molly Levin\, Allison Lange\, Isaiah Liggins\, Brendan Lockhart\, Mark Pettaway III\, Amber Sosa\, Brooke Studebaker.

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.

All undergraduate and graduate students enrolled at the Ann Arbor\, Dearborn\, or Flint U-M campuses in Fall 2023 are invited to apply to this juried exhibition that explores what can be done to create more just and equitable futures in the 21st Century and beyond.\n The 2023 exhibition will include art of a variety of mediums and will be displayed in four galleries across all three U-M campuses\, including Stamps Gallery (Central Campus\, Ann Arbor)\, Duderstadt Center Gallery (North Campus\, Ann Arbor)\, Riverbank Arts (Flint)\, and Stamelos Gallery (Dearborn). \nThe arts play a central role in shaping cultural and political narratives. Artists\, designers and creatives of diverse backgrounds have been at the forefront of social change by offering alternate models and ways of thinking\, making and creating that do not perpetuate dominant regimes. Creative processes have been used time and again to reveal under-told stories and to resist simple narratives. Regardless of one'\;s personal politics\, an artwork'\;s potential to change hearts and minds is urgent and necessary. \nRespond/ Resist/ Rethink invites students to leverage their creativity to (re)imagine what they can do to create a more just and equitable community in the spaces that they inhabit.\nThroughout the spring\, summer\, and fall of 2023\, U-M students submitted artworks through an open call process. A final list of artworks were chosen for the exhibition by a Selection Committee made up of U-M faculty\, staff\, and students. \n\nThe 2023 RRR Selection Committee members are: \nPedram Baldari\, Jim Cogswell\, Laura Cotton\, Nalani Duarte\, Adrienne Frank\, Benjamin Gaydos\, Kathryn Grabowski-Khairullah\, Quinn Hunter\, Ikalanni Jahi\, Jennifer Junkermeier-Khan\, Joe Levickas\, Srimoyee Mitra\, Kathi Reister\, Chloe Schans\, and Grace Sirman. \nThe 2023 RRR Curatorial Committee members are: \nLaura Cotton\, Nalani Duarte\, Benjamin Gaydos\, Kathryn Grabowski-Khairullah\, Srimoyee Mitra\, and Kathi Reister. \nThe 2023 RRR Organizing Committee members are: Chris Audain\, Adrienne Frank\, Kathryn Grabowski-Khairullah\, Jennifer Junkermeier-Khan\, Joe Levickas\, Srimoyee Mitra\, and Joe Rohrer.

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.

This time\, we've got a cheeky twist for you\, courtesy of French composer Jacques Offenbach. Orpheus is not the divine son of Apollo but instead a lackluster music teacher\, and his marriage to Eurydice is far from harmonious. Eurydice secretly loves Aristée\, who is actually Pluto in disguise. As Aristée serenades with a pastoral ode to sheep\, Eurydice suspects foul play\, believing Orpheus plans to harm him. In reality\, Orpheus and Pluto scheme to eliminate her. Pluto dupes Eurydice into the deadly trap\, revealing his true form as she succumbs in. They descend to the Underworld\, leaving a note for Orpheus. Just as Orpheus begins to revel in his newfound freedom\, Public Opinion storms in\, threatening to besmirch his name unless he goes to the Underworld to rescue his wife. Reluctantly\, Orpheus embarks on his epic quest to bring Eurydice back from the depths\, setting the stage for Offenbach's delightful operatic journey.\n\nHere's the kicker: We're singing this in French\, but don't worry\, the dialogue is in good ol' English. The production is set in the late 1950s\, right in the eve of John F. Kennedy's presidential campaign - and trust us\, it's going to be a blast. So\, mark your calendars\, dust off your dancing shoes\, and get ready to twist\, groove\, and laugh your way through *Orpheus in the Underworld*. It's a special spin you won't want to miss! \n\nSee you at the show!\n\nConductor: Brian Garman \nStage Director: Mo Zhou \n\nScenic Design: Kevin Judge\nCostume Design: Sarah Oliver\nLighting Design: Marie Yokoyama\n\nCast (in the order of vocal appearance)\n\nPublic Opinion: Qirong Liang\, Daiyao Zhong\nEURYDICE: Sohyun Cho\, Goitsemang Lehobye\nOrpheus: Carson Arcuri\, Alexander Nick\nAristée/Pluto: Tyrese Byrd\, Spencer VanDellen\nJupiter: Amante Pando Girard\, Jack Morin\nJunon: Hannah Yan\nDiane: Pelagia Pamel\nVénus: Yongxin Zhou\nCupidon: Veronica Koz\nMinerve: Maggie Reed\nMars: Thomas Long\nMercury: Ian Pathak\nJohn Styx: Loren Reash-Henz\nBacchus/Elvis Presley: Benjamin Isyk\n\nChorus: Ian Danaher\, Jake Bullard\, Amelie Besch\, Kyleigh Burtley\, Mira Grayton\, Jamiyah Hudson\, Molly Levin\, Allison Lange\, Isaiah Liggins\, Brendan Lockhart\, Mark Pettaway III\, Amber Sosa\, Brooke Studebaker.

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.

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

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

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

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

This time\, we've got a cheeky twist for you\, courtesy of French composer Jacques Offenbach. Orpheus is not the divine son of Apollo but instead a lackluster music teacher\, and his marriage to Eurydice is far from harmonious. Eurydice secretly loves Aristée\, who is actually Pluto in disguise. As Aristée serenades with a pastoral ode to sheep\, Eurydice suspects foul play\, believing Orpheus plans to harm him. In reality\, Orpheus and Pluto scheme to eliminate her. Pluto dupes Eurydice into the deadly trap\, revealing his true form as she succumbs in. They descend to the Underworld\, leaving a note for Orpheus. Just as Orpheus begins to revel in his newfound freedom\, Public Opinion storms in\, threatening to besmirch his name unless he goes to the Underworld to rescue his wife. Reluctantly\, Orpheus embarks on his epic quest to bring Eurydice back from the depths\, setting the stage for Offenbach's delightful operatic journey.\n\nHere's the kicker: We're singing this in French\, but don't worry\, the dialogue is in good ol' English. The production is set in the late 1950s\, right in the eve of John F. Kennedy's presidential campaign - and trust us\, it's going to be a blast. So\, mark your calendars\, dust off your dancing shoes\, and get ready to twist\, groove\, and laugh your way through *Orpheus in the Underworld*.

Influenced by the contradiction of its progressive home and the surrounding rural southern landscapes\, Mipso has been hailed as \"hewing surprisingly close to gospel and folk while still sounding modern and secular\" (Acoustic Guitar) and was recently recognized by Rolling Stone as an \"Artist You Need to Know.\" The band brings a unique sound\, full of wistful beauty\, hopeful undercurrents\, and panoramic soundscapes. Venturing ever further from its string-band pedigree to discover a broader Americana where classic folk-rock and modern alt-country sounds mingle easily with Appalachian tradition\, Mipso’s music is lush and forward-moving\, with lyrics that sear and salve in turn. \n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4201/4202 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.

These units of memory\, or engrams\, are poetic portals through which we time travel\, gaining hindsight and foresight\, more meaning and greater wisdom\, and hopes for a future less encumbered. Beyond reminiscences of technicolor sunsets\, perhaps memories are simply the brain's records of endless repetitions and familiar neural pathways.\n\nIn an era of iPhones\, Macbooks\, Instagram\, and Facebook\, everything that’s happened to us in recent memory is at our immediate disposal and made to look better than the original … every day of every year\, every meal of every trip\, every postcard destination. With constant 24/7 access to the newsreel of our own lives\, are we losing our innate ability to remember what matters in the process? \n\nIn Digital Engrams\, L.A. artist Gabriela Ruiz combines sound\, video\, light and sculpture to create unexpected environments that challenge our sensibilities. The installation considers how images function on and off the screen\, and how memories real and curated are the crux of personal and cultural identity. Who do we think we are in this life or the eternal life on the internet hereafter? \n\nRuiz’s spatial inquiries grapple with the potential erasure of the rituals of memorialization and the richness of material culture so important in her own Latinx heritage and to her sense of self.\n\n–Amanda Krugliak\, IH Arts Curator\n\nAbout the artist:\nGabriela Ruiz is a self-taught artist whose practice blends diverse forms of expression and media\, including sculpture\, video\, painting\, and apparel design. Her sculptures incorporate found objects and industrial materials\, such as thrift store furniture and insulation foam. Strongly influenced by growing up in L.A.’s San Fernando Valley to immigrant parents from Mexico\, Ruiz’s practice is a reflection of the DIY work ethic she was raised under\, the vibrancy of Mexican cultural and artistic traditions\, and her exposure to subculture and fantasy at a young age as a means to escape the realities of daily life.\n\nOne of L.A.’s rising young talents\, she presented her solo show Stream at the Palm Springs Art Museum in 2022\, part of the museum's Outburst project.\n\n*Gabriela Ruiz is the Jean Yokes Woodhead Visiting Artist at the Institute for the Humanities.

Through collaborations with her immediate community\, and also using herself as a subject\, Lee draws inspiration from the quotidian\, creating offbeat images that aim to preserve this moment in time\, (re) examine memories (especially those clouded by confusion) all the while asking questions around identity and existence.\n\nLee holds a BFA from the Maurice Kanbar Institute of Film and Television at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts. She is currently pursuing her MFA in Photography at School of the Art Institute of Chicago.\n\nIn Lee’s photographic exploration\, she investigates the profound connection between places and structures and the echoes of trauma that inhabit them. “Holding Places” is an exhibition that immerses viewers into a visual narrative\, inviting them to witness the power of space as holders and conduits for personal memory.\n\nBy reconstructing these places by hand in model scale and rendering them not as they were\, but how she experienced them\, she is able to navigate intimate details and hidden narratives that exist within them. The process of crafting these miniatures becomes a meditative contemplation\, giving Lee time to sit and reflect on these past events.\n\nThrough Lee’s lens\, they capture the visual manifestations of the ghosts of the past. The photographs offer glimpses into spaces where anguish\, conflict and distress have left their imprints\, sometimes visible\, sometimes buried beneath layers of time (and self preservation).

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.

Until 2018\, women did not have access to football stadiums\, and before 2020\, there was no official women’s league. On the face of it – there was no women’s football in Saudi Arabia. But the story of women’s football that was unfolding before and away from the headlines is a completely different one. In the Saudi capital of Riyadh\, a grassroots-initiated women’s football league has been active since 2007. The Riyadh Women’s Football League was initiated and organized by young Saudi women eager to play\, and the first season was played in 2008 with eight teams participating. Since the first season\, between six and eight teams have participated every year. With no official support the women have kept the league going\, though challenges related to everything from renting a field to finding qualified coaches resulted in only two of the teams involved in the first season still active today. Drawing on the story of the first Riyadh Women’s Football League\, this talk looks back on the emergence of women’s football in Saudi Arabia in the early 2000s and how pioneering women built a foundation for women’s football in Saudi Arabia.\n \n Charlotte Lysa is a researcher at the Department of Culture Studies and Oriental Languages\, University of Oslo. She is currently part of the project FORM – Football and Religion in the Middle East\, where she focuses on Saudi Arabia. Lysa holds a PhD in Middle East studies (2019) from the same university\, for which she studied women’s grassroot football in Qatar and Saudi Arabia. She was a visiting fellow at Qatar University (2016)\, and at the King Faisal Center for Research and Islamic Studies in Riyadh (2017\, 2020 and 2021-2022).\n \n This event is part of the CMENAS Fall Colloquium 2023: “The MENA world after a MENA World Cup” 555 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor.\n \n Colloquium questions: cmenas@umich.edu\n \n This series is funded in part by the Center for Middle Eastern and North African Studies (CMENAS) U.S. Department of Education Title VI National Resource Center (NRC) grant.\n \n To register\, go to https://myumi.ch/8eA8n.

Artists\, designers and creatives of diverse backgrounds have been at the forefront of social change. Creative processes have been used time and again to reveal under-told stories and to resist simple narratives. Regardless of one’s personal politics\, an artwork’s potential to change hearts and minds is urgent and necessary.

IceCube is sensitive to tracks as produced by charged current interactions from muon Neutrinos and cascades produced by other flavors and the neutral current. Due to recent machine-learning-based advances in reconstruction\, the precision of the pointing and background rejection have improved significantly\, and IceCube has been able to detect neutrino emission from the Galactic Plane. Localized emission opens up a wide variety of new physics searches\, many based on astrophysical flavor ratios. IceCube as a detector\, the recent Galactic Plane result\, and the use of IceCube as a vehicle to detect Beyond the Standard Model Physics are discussed.

Africans currently make up 16% of the world’s population and are projected to comprise 25% of the world’s population by 2050 and 40% by 2100\, according to UN projections. By 2100\, half of all babies in the world will be born in Africa. Investing in research efforts in this population will advance psychology’s broader goals of human progress and understanding. \n\nEmotions are fundamental to the human experience\, and wellbeing is important to understanding the human condition and the social influences that impact individual experience. Emotion experiences have been understudied in African contexts. Using data from 2 African countries and the United States\, this presentation will explore culturally-shaped patterns of emotion expression\, experience\, and regulation\; cultural emotion norms\; and cultural understandings of wellbeing.

A New Kind of Progressive: How Poles\, Venezuelans\, and Germans Reimagined Latin America DESCRIPTION:In the 1950s and 1960s\, Caracas—like many Latin American capitals—played host to global Cold Warriors of various ideological stripes. What makes the Venezuelan story unique is the degree of synergy achieved as U.S. agents of “political warfare” found common ground with European representatives of a political family known as Christian Democracy. In the homegrown Latin American vocabulary of “progressivism\,” East European exiles and West European powerbrokers alike saw a chance to marginalize Marxism by remaking Latin America into a breeding ground for distinctively Catholic visions of justice in politics\, economics\, and society. Polish political refugees served crucially as liaisons between the CIA-backed Free Europe Committee\; West Germany’s governing political party\, the CDU\; and emerging Latin American networks of Catholic lawyers\, academics\, and anti-junta dissenters. \n\nIn this lecture\, mid-century Caracas emerges as a place where Latin Americans and Europeans from both sides of the Iron Curtain pioneered a new kind of transnational politics: at once Catholic\, progressive\, and anti-communist. Our guide will be the Polish émigré Janusz Śleszyński\, who served as gatekeeper for much of the networking that built Venezuelan Christian Democracy into a continental powerhouse.\n\nPiotr H. Kosicki is a global and transnational historian of modern Europe. His early work focused on Catholic intellectual partnerships linking France and Poland\; this research yielded *Catholics on the Barricades: Poland\, France\, and “Revolution\,” 1891-1956* (Yale\, 2018)\, in addition to peer-reviewed articles in *Contemporary European History\, Modern Intellectual History\, Slavic Review\,* and *Vingtième Siecle: Revue d’histoire*. After curating a project about the Second Vatican Council’s impact on Eastern Europe (*Vatican II behind the Iron Curtain*\, 2016) and another concerning historical memory of the Katyń Massacres\, Kosicki’s research has turned to the global history of the political family known as Christian Democracy\, about which Kosicki has co-edited 3 books (*Christian Democracy across the Iron Curtain*\, 2017\; *Christian Democracy and the Fall of Communism*\, 2019\; and *Political Exile in the Global Twentieth Century*\, 2021). Piotr H. Kosicki contributes frequently to journals of public opinion\, including *Commonweal\, the Nation\,* the *TLS*\, and *The Washington Post*.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at weisercenter@umich.edu.

This lies at the heart of the powerful Riemann-Hilbert approach to these equations. In this talk\, I will discuss recent extensions of this approach to the q-difference setting\, focusing on the q-analog of Painlevé VI derived by Jimbo and Sakai. I will show how\, analogous to the classical theory\, a corresponding monodromy manifold can be constructed and the global asymptotics of solutions can be derived by analysing associated Riemann-Hilbert problems. The special role of classical-function solutions in this framework will also be highlighted.\n\nThis is based on joint work with Nalini Joshi.

During rapid growth\, Rho maintains the transcriptome health\, but how is Rho activity modulated during dormancy or stress\, conditions prevalent in natural habitats? Rho is a hexameric RNA helicase that adopts active closed-ring and inactive open-ring states\, and the interconversion between these states is thought to be a key checkpoint in Rho control. I will discuss two mechanisms by which ligands that bind at Rho subunit interfaces restrain ring dynamics. The Sm-like Rof protein binds at the extended RNA-binding site of Rho\, occluding its RNA- and RNA polymerase-binding sites and locking the hexamer open. The stress alarmone (p)ppGpp binds to the ATP-binding site and stabilizes the open ring\, triggering phase separation into inactive higher-order oligomers and extended filaments. These and other anti-termination mechanisms are expected to silence Rho under conditions when unrestrained termination would be lethal.\n\nKeywords: transcription\; termination\; Rho helicase\; stress response\; phase separation UID:109679-21822695@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/109679 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biosciences LOCATION:Taubman Biomedical Science Research Building - ABC Seminar Rooms CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230927T115718 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231106T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231106T173000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:STS Speaker Series. In the Flow: Affect and Protocol in US Medical Practice DESCRIPTION:Why do biomedical clinicians sometimes practice contrary to their own expertise? Medicine is often described as a modernist project in search of a universal “view from nowhere.” In this talk\, I show how this view systematically breaks down due to the impingement of sensation\, emotion\, affect and social forces into the embodied “flow” of moving in and against time in clinical practice. Using ethnographic and autoethnographic data\, I present paradoxes of counter-protocol medical decisions from a variety of contexts in the U.S. that cease to be paradoxical if we step into clinicians’ embodied worlds.\n\nScott Stonington\, MD/PhD is Associate Professor of Anthropology and Internal Medicine at the University of Michigan.

These line bundles vary in the Picard space of the curve\, and the geometry of that space determines much of the geometry of the embedding. In this talk I will explore the generalizations of this study to higher rank vector bundles and their moduli spaces\, where we replace the base curve by the projective plane. The properties of Brill-Noether loci inside moduli spaces of sheaves on surfaces are largely unknown\, but in recent joint work with Yeqin Liu and Woohyung Lee\, we have established many of their fundamental properties on the projective plane.

For over four decades the Wooten Brothers have been recognized as some of the most innovative musicians in existence and are collectively known as one of the most talented and dynamic band of brothers the world has ever known. Since they were young\, the brothers have been a musical tour-de-force redefining the limits of jazz\, funk\, soul\, R&B\, rock\, and bluegrass. Sons of military parents\, they spent their early years living in different states including Hawaii\, California\, and Virginia where they shared stages with the likes of Curtis Mayfield\, The Temptations\, Ramsey Lewis\, Stephanie Mills\, War\, and other artists. In the mid 80’s\, the brothers released an album as The Wootens for Clive Davis’ Arista Records. This will be the brothers’ first tour together as a band since the untimely death of their saxophone-playing brother Rudy a few years ago.\n\nVictor Wooten\, a five-time Grammy Award-winning artist\, has graced the cover of Bass Player Magazine five times. He is a founding member of the eclectic group Bela Fleck and the Flecktones and is recognized as one of the greatest living bassist today often drawing comparisons to Jaco Pastorius\, and was named one of the “Top ten bassist of all time”by Rolling Stone Magazine. He is also an award-nominated author\, naturalist\, and music educator and has been running his unique music/nature camps since the year 2000. Wooten’s camps are held at his own Wooten Woods\, which is just outside of Nashville. In 2010\, he started his own record label\, Vix Records\, which has released a series of acclaimed recordings over the last few years..\n\nJoseph Wooten has a dizzying list of talents that is impressive even by the Wooten clan’s standards. Currently the keyboardist for the Steve Miller Band (since 1993)\, he is also a composer\, orchestrator\, motivational speaker\, and has been showcased as an amazing vocalist since he was a child. In 1981\, Joseph became known as the “overnight accordion player” when he literally auditioned\, bought an accordion\, and began performing within a matter of a few days for the Busch Gardens amusement park in Williamsburg\, VA. He has collaborated with the likes of Whitney Houston and Kenny G\, and when not touring with Miller\, leads his own band\, performs with Freedom Sings\, and even helps out his little brother as keyboardist\, vocalist\, and composer for The Victor Wooten Band. Roy “Futureman” Wooten\, also a five-time Grammy Award winner\, is best known for his masterful drumming and percussion skills and is a founding member Bela Fleck and the Flecktones. Roy\, a seasoned drum set player\, is mostly known for his frenzied\, inimitable on-stage performances heightened by his surreal choice of instruments: his trademark inventions “The Drumitar” and “RoyEl” keyboard. He is also a philosopher\, researcher\, filmmaker\, and educator. His impressive solo career and “Black Mozart” projects scan the genres of classical\, jazz\, soul\, gospel\, and spoken word.\nRegi Wooten’s signature guitar style of chording\, slapping\, tapping and frenzied strumming has earned him world-wide notoriety and comparisons to Jimi Hendrix\, Frank Zappa and Chuck Berry. In recent years\, Regi has performed with many artists including the legendary Ginger Baker. Regi\, known worldwide as “The Teacher”\, currently teaches music in Nashville\, TN and has taught many notable musicians. He was teaching his little brothers Joseph and Victor when he himself was only 9 years old. One of his early\, but lasting contributions was the composition of his and his brother’s high school Alma Mater.\n\nTogether The Wooten Brothers bring an uncanny level of experience\, originality\, and musical expertise to the stage. Their shows will be a high-energy\, super-funky\, artistic blend of styles including original songs and classics. In short: these brothers are the real deal and their shows are not to be missed.\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4219/4220 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.

These units of memory\, or engrams\, are poetic portals through which we time travel\, gaining hindsight and foresight\, more meaning and greater wisdom\, and hopes for a future less encumbered. Beyond reminiscences of technicolor sunsets\, perhaps memories are simply the brain's records of endless repetitions and familiar neural pathways.\n\nIn an era of iPhones\, Macbooks\, Instagram\, and Facebook\, everything that’s happened to us in recent memory is at our immediate disposal and made to look better than the original … every day of every year\, every meal of every trip\, every postcard destination. With constant 24/7 access to the newsreel of our own lives\, are we losing our innate ability to remember what matters in the process? \n\nIn Digital Engrams\, L.A. artist Gabriela Ruiz combines sound\, video\, light and sculpture to create unexpected environments that challenge our sensibilities. The installation considers how images function on and off the screen\, and how memories real and curated are the crux of personal and cultural identity. Who do we think we are in this life or the eternal life on the internet hereafter? \n\nRuiz’s spatial inquiries grapple with the potential erasure of the rituals of memorialization and the richness of material culture so important in her own Latinx heritage and to her sense of self.\n\n–Amanda Krugliak\, IH Arts Curator\n\nAbout the artist:\nGabriela Ruiz is a self-taught artist whose practice blends diverse forms of expression and media\, including sculpture\, video\, painting\, and apparel design. Her sculptures incorporate found objects and industrial materials\, such as thrift store furniture and insulation foam. Strongly influenced by growing up in L.A.’s San Fernando Valley to immigrant parents from Mexico\, Ruiz’s practice is a reflection of the DIY work ethic she was raised under\, the vibrancy of Mexican cultural and artistic traditions\, and her exposure to subculture and fantasy at a young age as a means to escape the realities of daily life.\n\nOne of L.A.’s rising young talents\, she presented her solo show Stream at the Palm Springs Art Museum in 2022\, part of the museum's Outburst project.\n\n*Gabriela Ruiz is the Jean Yokes Woodhead Visiting Artist at the Institute for the Humanities.

Through collaborations with her immediate community\, and also using herself as a subject\, Lee draws inspiration from the quotidian\, creating offbeat images that aim to preserve this moment in time\, (re) examine memories (especially those clouded by confusion) all the while asking questions around identity and existence.\n\nLee holds a BFA from the Maurice Kanbar Institute of Film and Television at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts. She is currently pursuing her MFA in Photography at School of the Art Institute of Chicago.\n\nIn Lee’s photographic exploration\, she investigates the profound connection between places and structures and the echoes of trauma that inhabit them. “Holding Places” is an exhibition that immerses viewers into a visual narrative\, inviting them to witness the power of space as holders and conduits for personal memory.\n\nBy reconstructing these places by hand in model scale and rendering them not as they were\, but how she experienced them\, she is able to navigate intimate details and hidden narratives that exist within them. The process of crafting these miniatures becomes a meditative contemplation\, giving Lee time to sit and reflect on these past events.\n\nThrough Lee’s lens\, they capture the visual manifestations of the ghosts of the past. The photographs offer glimpses into spaces where anguish\, conflict and distress have left their imprints\, sometimes visible\, sometimes buried beneath layers of time (and self preservation).

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/2mJkN.\n\nHow did the Chinese state establish its authority following the 1949 revolution? In this talk\, Dr. Javed examines the Chinese Communist Party’s mass mobilization of violence during its land reform campaign in the early 1950s\, one of the most violent and successful state-building efforts in history. Using an array of novel archival\, documentary\, and quantitative historical data\, he will illustrate that China’s land reform campaign was not just about economic redistribution but rather part of a larger\, brutally violent state-building effort to delegitimize the new party-state’s internal rivals and establish its normative authority.\n \n Jeffrey Javed is a former postdoctoral fellow at the Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies and the Weiser Center for Emerging Democracies at the University of Michigan. He currently works in the tech industry (former Senior Staff Researcher at Shopify and Staff Researcher at Meta)\, where he researches data privacy and the benefits and risks of AI-powered products.

The 2023 Respond/Resist/Rethink exhibition will include art of a variety of mediums and will be displayed in four galleries across all three U‑M campuses\, including Stamps Gallery (Central Campus\, Ann Arbor)\, Duderstadt Center Gallery (North Campus\, Ann Arbor)\, Riverbank Arts (Flint)\, and Stamelos Gallery (Dearborn).\n\nThe arts play a central role in shaping cultural and political narratives. Artists\, designers and creatives of diverse backgrounds have been at the forefront of social change. Creative processes have been used time and again to reveal under-told stories and to resist simple narratives. Regardless of one’s personal politics\, an artwork’s potential to change hearts and minds is urgent and necessary. Respond/​Resist/​Rethink invites students to leverage their creativity to (re)imagine what they can do to create a more just and equitable community in the spaces that they inhabit.\n\nNote: The Duderstadt Center will close slightly earlier\, on Dec 1.\nDuderstadt Center Gallery Hours: Noon-6pm Tues-Fri\, Noon-6pm Sunday UID:114465-21832922@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114465 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Activism,Art,Exhibition LOCATION:Duderstadt Center - Gallery, Room 1019 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230802T143457 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231107T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231107T130000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Role of Macrophage Proteostasis Machinery in Host Defense Against Intracellular Bacterial Pathogens-Department of Biological Chemistry Seminar DESCRIPTION:The Department of Biological Chemistry presents the Fall 2023 Seminar Series.

Whether it is walking to work or strolling through a park\, pedestrian safety should be a vital concern. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration\, 7\,388 pedestrians were killed and more than 60\,000 were injured in 2021. As automated vehicle technology proliferates\, the safety of all road users must be at the forefront.\n\nThis talk\, led by Professor Sridhar Lakshmanan\, will focus on a variety of enabling technologies for vehicle-pedestrian interactions such as Automated Pedestrian Proxies\, Prediction of Vehicle Conflicts\, and Use of Projection Light to Increase Pedestrian Safety. In particular\, Professor Lakshmanan will highlight his xBOT platform which behaves and is perceived as a free-moving pedestrian\, scooter\, bicycle\, motorbike\, or full-sized vehicle to test the safety performance of AV systems.\n---\nAbout the speaker: Sridhar Lakshmanan is an Educator\, Researcher\, Mentor and Entrepreneur. He is on the faculty of the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at the University of Michigan – Dearborn.

Under common assumptions including fixed recourse and bounded (sub)gradients\, we provide the number of iterations\, operations\, and samples that the algorithm needs to find a near-optimal solution\, where the radius of the convergence neighborhood depends on the level of the inexactness of objective function estimates. In the second part\, I will introduce a sequential quadratic programming method for minimizing a stochastic objective function subject to deterministic constraints. In addition to presenting the theoretical convergence behavior\, we compare the empirical performance of our proposed method with other alternatives to demonstrate the advantages of our algorithm. In the end\, I will discuss some of my future research directions.\n\n\nPresenter Bio:\nBaoyu Zhou is a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Michigan (Department of Industrial and Operations Engineering) and the University of Chicago (Booth School of Business)\, working with Professors Albert S.

At densities higher than 1 atom per cubic wavelength\, such interactions give rise to density shifts and broadenings\, and when confined to less than a wavelength size\, such dipolar interaction leads to collective blockade phenomena\, which mostly have been studied in the context of strongly interacting Rydberg states. \n\nHere we study these phenomena for low-lying excited atomic states confined in thin atomic clouds that are generated via the pulsed Light-Induced Atomic Desorption (LIAD) technique. For the first few nanoseconds\, the transient light-induced dipolar interaction of the low-lying lines of Rubidium leads to shifts and broadenings well beyond the well-known Lorentz-Lorenz limit. In the second experiment\, we combine the high densities achievable in thermal atomic vapors with an efficient coupling to a slot waveguide. In contrast to free-space interactions\, atoms aligned within the slot exhibit repulsive interactions that are further enhanced by a factor of 8 due to the Purcell effect. The corresponding blueshift of the transition frequency of atoms arranged in the essentially one-dimensional geometry vanishes above the saturation\, providing a controllable nonlinearity at the few-photon level. \n\nTowards the end of my talk\, I will introduce our novel platform in thin-film cuprous oxide\, which allows us to realize strongly interacting Rydberg excitons in a solid-state system that is inherently suitable for scalability and integration. The results of these studies pave the way towards a robust scalable platform for quantum nonlinear chiral optics and all-optical quantum information processing in an integrable and scalable platform\, and potentially at elevated temperatures.

These enzymes reductively cleave SAM to generate a 5’-deoxyadenosyl radical (dAdo•)\, which initiates transformation of the substrate. rSAM enzymes are widely distributed in naturally occurring biosynthetic pathways\, including those that generate ribosomally produced and posttranslationally modified polypeptides (RiPPs). We have carried out extensive biochemical studies of members of the rSAM RiPP maturase enzymes that produce thioether crosslink in their cognate substrate. This presentation will focus on our work leveraging detailed biochemical insights into development of a rSAM-based system introducing thioether crosslinks in RiPPs. Current progress and breadth of transformations catalyzed will be discussed.

The transition to electric vehicles (EVs) represents a huge opportunity to cut tailpipe emissions and address high-carbon materials used to build cars like steel and aluminum which represent 10% of annual greenhouse gases (GHGs). Speakers will explore the local and international impacts of GM’s material supply chain and provide insight from frontline communities living with the economic\, health\, and environmental impacts of the automaker’s material supply chain.\n\nWhy?\nGM is a global leader in the automobile industry and thus uniquely positioned to set the industry standard for supply chain decarbonization and respect for human rights and the environment. In 2021 GM launched its campaign\, ‘Everybody In’\, to document the company’s transition to EVs and carbon neutrality by 2040. However\, since announcing these lofty targets\, GM has taken little action to meet these goals. Further\, GM has named Cleveland Cliffs its “supplier of the year” for six consecutive years\, despite that Cleveland Cliffs have been linked to polluting the Dearborn\, Michigan community causing many health concerns among its inhabitants\, and recently agreed to pay $3 million in fines for dumpingarsenic and cyanide into Lake Michigan.\n\nBEVERAGES AND SNACKS will be served at 6:30PM and the panel will begin at 7PM.

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.

These units of memory\, or engrams\, are poetic portals through which we time travel\, gaining hindsight and foresight\, more meaning and greater wisdom\, and hopes for a future less encumbered. Beyond reminiscences of technicolor sunsets\, perhaps memories are simply the brain's records of endless repetitions and familiar neural pathways.\n\nIn an era of iPhones\, Macbooks\, Instagram\, and Facebook\, everything that’s happened to us in recent memory is at our immediate disposal and made to look better than the original … every day of every year\, every meal of every trip\, every postcard destination. With constant 24/7 access to the newsreel of our own lives\, are we losing our innate ability to remember what matters in the process? \n\nIn Digital Engrams\, L.A. artist Gabriela Ruiz combines sound\, video\, light and sculpture to create unexpected environments that challenge our sensibilities. The installation considers how images function on and off the screen\, and how memories real and curated are the crux of personal and cultural identity. Who do we think we are in this life or the eternal life on the internet hereafter? \n\nRuiz’s spatial inquiries grapple with the potential erasure of the rituals of memorialization and the richness of material culture so important in her own Latinx heritage and to her sense of self.\n\n–Amanda Krugliak\, IH Arts Curator\n\nAbout the artist:\nGabriela Ruiz is a self-taught artist whose practice blends diverse forms of expression and media\, including sculpture\, video\, painting\, and apparel design. Her sculptures incorporate found objects and industrial materials\, such as thrift store furniture and insulation foam. Strongly influenced by growing up in L.A.’s San Fernando Valley to immigrant parents from Mexico\, Ruiz’s practice is a reflection of the DIY work ethic she was raised under\, the vibrancy of Mexican cultural and artistic traditions\, and her exposure to subculture and fantasy at a young age as a means to escape the realities of daily life.\n\nOne of L.A.’s rising young talents\, she presented her solo show Stream at the Palm Springs Art Museum in 2022\, part of the museum's Outburst project.\n\n*Gabriela Ruiz is the Jean Yokes Woodhead Visiting Artist at the Institute for the Humanities.

Through collaborations with her immediate community\, and also using herself as a subject\, Lee draws inspiration from the quotidian\, creating offbeat images that aim to preserve this moment in time\, (re) examine memories (especially those clouded by confusion) all the while asking questions around identity and existence.\n\nLee holds a BFA from the Maurice Kanbar Institute of Film and Television at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts. She is currently pursuing her MFA in Photography at School of the Art Institute of Chicago.\n\nIn Lee’s photographic exploration\, she investigates the profound connection between places and structures and the echoes of trauma that inhabit them. “Holding Places” is an exhibition that immerses viewers into a visual narrative\, inviting them to witness the power of space as holders and conduits for personal memory.\n\nBy reconstructing these places by hand in model scale and rendering them not as they were\, but how she experienced them\, she is able to navigate intimate details and hidden narratives that exist within them. The process of crafting these miniatures becomes a meditative contemplation\, giving Lee time to sit and reflect on these past events.\n\nThrough Lee’s lens\, they capture the visual manifestations of the ghosts of the past. The photographs offer glimpses into spaces where anguish\, conflict and distress have left their imprints\, sometimes visible\, sometimes buried beneath layers of time (and self preservation).

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 physics relevant to these phenomena are all captured by Jackiw-Teitelboim theories of gravity\, which have been rather explicitly shown to be dual to various matrix ensembles. The issues and features mentioned above can all be precisely understood from this perspective: traditional gravitational calculations are computing annealed quantities\, which give inherently wrong approximations near extremality. \nWe use the matrix integral formulation to show how quenched quantities do in fact behave sensibly and yield non-negative entropies at all temperatures. By using a suitable replica trick\, this is done for a completely general matrix ensemble\, thus settling the question for any black hole whose near-extremal spectrum is captured by such ensembles. Crucially\, this result only requires working perturbatively to leading order in the size of the matrices\, which hints at the possibility of an analogous semiclassical gravitational computation where one just needs to account for wormhole contributions appropriately (and not for doubly non-perturbative effects in 1/G).

All undergraduate and graduate students enrolled at the Ann Arbor\, Dearborn\, or Flint U-M campuses in Fall 2023 are invited to apply to this juried exhibition that explores what can be done to create more just and equitable futures in the 21st Century and beyond.\n The 2023 exhibition will include art of a variety of mediums and will be displayed in four galleries across all three U-M campuses\, including Stamps Gallery (Central Campus\, Ann Arbor)\, Duderstadt Center Gallery (North Campus\, Ann Arbor)\, Riverbank Arts (Flint)\, and Stamelos Gallery (Dearborn). \nThe arts play a central role in shaping cultural and political narratives. Artists\, designers and creatives of diverse backgrounds have been at the forefront of social change by offering alternate models and ways of thinking\, making and creating that do not perpetuate dominant regimes. Creative processes have been used time and again to reveal under-told stories and to resist simple narratives. Regardless of one'\;s personal politics\, an artwork'\;s potential to change hearts and minds is urgent and necessary. \nRespond/ Resist/ Rethink invites students to leverage their creativity to (re)imagine what they can do to create a more just and equitable community in the spaces that they inhabit.\nThroughout the spring\, summer\, and fall of 2023\, U-M students submitted artworks through an open call process. A final list of artworks were chosen for the exhibition by a Selection Committee made up of U-M faculty\, staff\, and students. \n\nThe 2023 RRR Selection Committee members are: \nPedram Baldari\, Jim Cogswell\, Laura Cotton\, Nalani Duarte\, Adrienne Frank\, Benjamin Gaydos\, Kathryn Grabowski-Khairullah\, Quinn Hunter\, Ikalanni Jahi\, Jennifer Junkermeier-Khan\, Joe Levickas\, Srimoyee Mitra\, Kathi Reister\, Chloe Schans\, and Grace Sirman. \nThe 2023 RRR Curatorial Committee members are: \nLaura Cotton\, Nalani Duarte\, Benjamin Gaydos\, Kathryn Grabowski-Khairullah\, Srimoyee Mitra\, and Kathi Reister. \nThe 2023 RRR Organizing Committee members are: Chris Audain\, Adrienne Frank\, Kathryn Grabowski-Khairullah\, Jennifer Junkermeier-Khan\, Joe Levickas\, Srimoyee Mitra\, and Joe Rohrer.

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.

This 2020 research was intended to produce parallel estimates of the 2020 Census population and housing unit totals at the census block level\, employing the same survey items as the census and using enhanced data collection strategies and exploration of imputation methods. The CNC block-level population estimates were sensitive to the imputation method used to account for non-responding households\, likely in part due to limited availability of administrative data to assist the imputations. CNC identified more housing units than Census (23\,929 versus 22\,668)\, which may be due to CNC’s in-person address canvassing. Despite advancements in geospatial imaging software\, as well as many other approaches used by the U.S. Census Bureau to assess coverage and validate addresses\, in-field address verification might yield a more complete accounting of inhabited housing units than partially conducting address canvassing with in-office approaches. \n\nLane Burgette is a Senior Statistician at the RAND Corporation.

A formally identical proof works for a family of structures and all isomorphisms between them\, which now form a \"multi-pointed\" generalization of a group called a groupoid (and the representation theorem for them now known as the Yoneda lemma). Generalizing Cayley's theorem in another direction\, every two-sided complete topological group can be represented as the automorphism group of *some* first-order structure (discrete if the group is non-Archimedean\; metric in general). In this talk\, we will explain these three related results\, and their common generalization to a representation theorem for topological groupoids.

We focus on the application of kSZ to the reconstruction of cosmic radial velocity. We develop an optimization based likelihood approach for the kSZ-induced cross-correlation of CMB with the large scale structure via kSZ effect. We show that while existing quadratic estimator technique is enough for near-term experiments\, the proposed likelihood approach can give higher signal-to-noise in the future. The autodifferentiable likelihood is implemented and optmized in JAX and evaluated on Agora simulations. We further discuss possible extensions and improvements\, such as machine-learning based estimator of electron density given an observed galaxy distribution.

Such a surface contains lines that come from the point configuration in P^2. We can also define a moduli space of del Pezzo surfaces as the parameter space of these point configurations. In this talk\, we work over the real numbers and study real del Pezzo surfaces and the regions on them cut out by the lines\; we also study the moduli space of real del Pezzo surfaces. In both cases\, we find positive geometries. This is joint work with Nick Early\, Alheydis Geiger\, Marta Panizzut\, and Bernd Sturmfels.

(joint with Natalia Emanuel and Amanda Pallais) DESCRIPTION:Amidst the rise of remote work\, how does proximity to colleagues affect workers? We find working near colleagues leads to a tradeoff\, increasing long-run human capital development at the expense of short-term output. We study software engineers at a Fortune 500 firm\, whose main campus has two buildings several blocks apart. When offices were open\, engineers working in the same building as all their teammates received 22 percent more online feedback than engineers with distant teammates. After offices closed for COVID-19\, this advantage largely disappears. Yet sitting together reduces engineers’ programming output\, particularly for senior engineers. The tradeoffs from proximity are more acute for women\, who both do more mentoring and receive more mentorship when near their coworkers. Proximity impacts career trajectories\, dampening short-run pay raises but boosting long-run outcomes. These results can explain national trends: those who need mentorship and those who can provide it are more likely to work from the office. However\, even if most mentors and mentees go into the office\, remote work may reduce interaction: pre-COVID\, having just one distant teammate reduced feedback among co-located workers.

First\, we show that the generalized Kyle model with dynamic information can be recast into a terminal optimization problem with distributional constraints. Therefore\, the theory of optimal transport between spaces of unequal dimension comes as a natural tool. Second\, the pricing rule of the market maker and an optimality criterion for the problem of the informed trader are established using the Kantorovich potentials and transport maps. Finally\, we completely characterize the optimal strategies by analyzing the filtering problem from the market maker's point of view. In this context\, the Kushner-Zakai filtering SPDE yields to an interesting backward stochastic partial differential equation whose measure-valued terminal condition comes from the optimal coupling of measures.

While the resolution of the Bloch-Kato conjectures have given us important insights into Galois cohomology\, fundamental questions remain as to how complicated the description of classes can be for particular fields of interest\, in particular for function fields of varieties.\n\nOne of the most important cases is that of degree 2 cohomology\, which corresponds to the Brauer group. Here these questions relate to the possible structure of division algebras over a field.\n\nIn this talk\, I’ll give a survey of some of the progress and open questions on the complexity of descriptions of Galois cohomology class\, including the period-index problem\, the symbol length problem and approaches through local-global principles.

Abiotic actuators\, by contrast\, have yet to match their biological counterparts in their ability to autonomously sense and adapt their form and function to changing environments. We have shown that engineered skeletal muscle actuators\, controlled by neuronal networks\, can generate force and power functional behaviors such as walking and pumping in a range of untethered robots. These muscle-powered robots are dynamically responsive to biochemical and mechanical stimuli and are capable of complex functional behaviors like exercise-mediated strengthening and healing in response to damage. Our lab uses engineered bioactuators as a platform to understand assembly and remodeling in neuromuscular tissues in physiological and pathological states\, restore mobility after disease and damage\, and power soft robots. This talk will cover the advantages\, challenges\, and future directions of understanding and manipulating the mechanics of biological motor control.\n\nhttps://umich-health.zoom.us/j/93929606089?pwd=SHh6R1FOQm8xMThRemdxTEFMWWpVdz09\n\nShort Bio:\nRitu Raman\, PhD is the d’Arbeloff Career Development Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering at MIT.

DESCRIPTION:Click here to register: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1_YFGTuPwYrc7YghmcmLubnoMwSCIPXGKLR1tLLtIiAI/viewform?edit_requested=true.\n \nResearch for Indigenous Social Action and Equity (RISE) presents a screening of Imagining the Indian: The Fight Against Native American Mascoting\, immediately followed by a panel discussion featuring internationally renowned Indigenous activists\, scholars\, and film makers: Suzan Harjo\, Stephanie Fryberg\, Phil Deloria\, Aviva Kempner\, Ben West\, and Yancey Burns.\n \nImagining the Indian: The Fight Against Native American Mascoting is an award-winning documentary that examines the movement that is ending the use of Native American names\, logos\, and mascots in the world of sports and beyond. The film details the current uprising against the misappropriation of Native culture in a national reckoning about racial injustice that has succeeded in the removal of Confederate imagery\, toppling statues of Christopher Columbus and forcing corporate sponsors of Washington’s NFL team to demand it change its most-offensive name. It examines the origin and proliferation of the words\, images\, and gestures that many Native people and their allies find offensive. Imagining the Indian explores the impact that stereotyping and marginalization of Native history have had on Native people. It chronicles the long social movement to eliminate mascoting.  \n\nLead support for this project is provided by Teiger Foundation\, the U-M Office of the Provost\, the U-M Office of the President\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, the U-M Marsal Family School of Education\, the U-M Institute for the Humanities\, Michigan Humanities\, and the U-M Arts Initiative.
