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.

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:114465-21832919@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:20231117T094743 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231104T123000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231104T131500 SUMMARY:Presentation:Sky Tonight DESCRIPTION:A live presentation on what to find in the sky tonight and for the coming few weeks.

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.

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. 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.

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.

Foresight is the ability to think effectively about how the future might be different\, so you can prepare for anything\, and start to make changes in your own life\, and in society\, for the better. \n\nAt IFTF\, Gabe Cervantes helps lead custom forecasts\, IFTF Foresight Essentials trainings\, and speaking engagements across various industries and sectors. A leading strategist in scaling foresight\, Gabe works closely with large organizations to help them foster an environment that encourages the development and application of foresight among the next generation of future leaders and top-tier leadership. Before joining IFTF\, Gabe helped startups in Silicon Valley understand consumer needs to develop stronger sales and go-to-market strategies. Forgoing a career in law\, he leaned into his training as a diasporas scholar from Williams College in Williamstown\, Massachusetts\, where he earned a Bachelor's Degree in American Studies with a dual focus on Latino/a and Africana Studies. Gabe shares his learnings pro bono with communities of color and individuals who are the first in their families to attend college.\n\nPlease register here: https://tinyurl.com/25m9jbac\n\nSponsored by Dr. Devon Powers\, Communication + Media\, as part of the Trends and Futures lecture series.

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.

I will discuss various dynamical properties of automorphisms that turn out to be group invariants of the corresponding free-by-cyclic groups (e.g. growth type). In particular\, certain dynamical hierarchical decompositions of an automorphism determine canonical hierarchical decompositions of its mapping torus.

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.

Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Bachelor of Fine Arts in Theatre Performance: Directing.\n\nDario Fo's *Accidental Death of an Anarchist* is a 1970 political satire that concerns the accidental (or not) death of a supposed anarchist rail worker who fell (or was pushed) to his death from a fourth-story window of the police headquarters in Milan. It is based on the 1969 Piazza Fontana bombing and the real-life defenestration of a man during police interrogation. The play itself is a fictionalized version of the aftermath\, following the officers responsible as they attempt to rewrite the truth of the event\, all while being egged on by a Maniac with a penchant for disguises and making clowns out of cops.

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. This exhibition is part of LSA's fall 2023 Art & Resistance theme semester.* UID:110231-21824619@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/110231 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Theme Semester,Visual Arts LOCATION:202 S.

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.

However\, our knowledge of trichome evolution is fragmented and we know surprisingly little about the macroevolutionary drivers of trichome diversification\, which limits our ability to recognize patterns across lineages and test adaptive hypotheses. My dissertation will address this gap by leveraging phylogenetic and experimental approaches to examine trichome evolution in Loasaceae\, a family known for its extraordinarily complex hairs.

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.

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. His expertise lies in intelligent systems: autonomous-connected vehicles\, robots\, intelligent transportation systems\, and smart cities. He was won many awards for his work at the University.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

Dunn co-founded the menswear ecommerce brand Bonobos in 2007 and served as the company’s CEO for its first ten years\, pioneering the digitally native brand movement. Bonobos was the first American brand launched to scale using e-commerce. The company’s inventory-free store model\, called guideshops\, redefined what an offline retail experience can be in the digital era. A decade after its founding\, Bonobos was acquired for $310 million. In 2022\, Dunn published a memoir. In it\, he lifts the veil on the mental health demons he’d been privately battling as he built Bonobos. \"Burn Rate: Launching a Startup and Losing My Mind\" chronicles his journey at the intersection of entrepreneurship and bipolar disorder. \n\nFollowing Andy Dunn's presentation will be a panel discussion highlighting the Prechter Program's research projects.\n\nFor more information and to register for this event\, visit prechterprogram.org/lecture UID:110975-21825951@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/110975 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Bipolar,Depression,Discussion,Free,Health,Lecture,Mental Health,Psychiatry,Research,Wellness LOCATION:Taubman Biomedical Science Research Building - Kahn Auditorium CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231123T123134 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231108T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231108T190000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Ace Your Interview DESCRIPTION:This is an Ace Your Interview Presentation for ResEd UID:114225-21832517@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114225 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION: CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231004T121120 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231108T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231108T190000 SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:Deutschtisch im Max Kade Haus DESCRIPTION:Deutschtisch is a weekly event in the North Quad dining hall for Max Kade residents and visitors from outside of Max Kade Haus to speak German during a meal.

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.

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.

The title of the 2-day conference\, part of the Nam Center’s Perspectives on Contemporary Korea conference series\, references the visceral\, emotional experiences embedded in and conjured by Korean music performance across many eras\, genres\, and locations. In the 21st century\, Korean music defies geopolitical boundaries and the confines of genre as artists draw on their own experiences and communities to express the lived realities of the contemporary Korean experience. The music we explore in this symposium is inclusive of long-standing traditions and new creations on the Korean peninsula\, music performance in the Diaspora\, and collaborations drawing and expanding upon Korean musical aesthetics. The participants in this two-day event will explore the many notions of Korean music on and beyond the Korean peninsula\, through space and time\, and reimagined via multiple encounters and experiences.\n\nThis event will be a combination of traditional paper presentation\, roundtables\, and workshops. There will also be at least two performances during the two-day event. The event will be free & open to the public. Attendance will be available both in-person and virtual.\n\nThis event is a program feature of the U-M Fall 2023 Festival of Asian Music. https://smtd.umich.edu/asian-music-festival/ UID:113566-21831163@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/113566 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Asia,Korea,Music,Performance LOCATION:Weiser Hall - Room 1010 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231016T095224 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231109T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231109T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:(DE) CONSTRUCTED EXHIBITION BY NOUR BALLOUT DESCRIPTION:Gallery Hours: Mon-Friday\, 9 am- 5pm\, or by appointment: serrag@med.umich.edu\n\nNour Ballout (b. 1993\, Beirut) is a Detroit & Chicago based interdisciplinary artist and curator.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Ukrainian Poetry and Resistance DESCRIPTION:In this panel\, Alex Averbuch\, Oksana Maksymchuk\, and Max Rosochinsky join in conversation moderated by Svitlana Rogovyk over the interweaving traditions of poetry and resistance in Ukraine. Poetry has been used as a tool of resistance in Ukraine in a number of ways: as a means of preserving languages\, as a witness to atrocity\, as a form of remembrance\, as a testament to survival\, and as a grounds for experimentation and celebration. As poets\, translators\, and scholars of Ukraine\, the panelists offer their personal and professional insights to the social role of the arts in the context of Ukraine's multiethnic culture and history. Discussion will be accompanied by poetry reading.\n \nResponding to Russia’s war against Ukraine\, artist Irina Bondarenko created the installation *Guardian Passage* by pairing images of guardian figures with the lines of poetry to invoke the sense of cultural guardianship that Ukrainian language carries for the nation. Alex Averbuch’s poem\, “He wasn’t there alone” in Oksana Maksymchuk and Max Rosochinsky’s translation is featured in the project.\n \nAlex Averbuch\, a poet\, translator\, and scholar\, is the author of three books of poetry and an array of literary translations between Hebrew\, Ukrainian\, English\, and Russian. English translations of his poems have appeared in the *Manhattan Review\, Copper Nickel\, Plume\, Birmingham Poetry Review\, Words Without Borders\, Constellations\,* and *Common Knowledge.* His latest book\, *Zhydivs’kyi korol' (The Jewish King)\,* was a finalist for the Shevchenko National Prize\, Ukraine’s highest award for culture and literature. He is a postdoctoral fellow at the Davis Center for Russian and Eurasian Studies\, Harvard University.\n \nOksana Maksymchuk is a bilingual Ukrainian-American poet\, scholar\, and literary translator. Her poetry appeared in *AGNI\, The Irish Times\, The Paris Review\, The Poetry Review\,* and elsewhere. In Ukrainian\, she is the author of poetry collections *Xenia* and *Lovy* and a recipient of the B.-I. Antonych and Smoloskyp prizes\, two of Ukraine’s top awards for younger poets. She is a visiting professor of English at the University of Chicago.\n \nMax Rosochinsky is a poet\, scholar\, and translator. With Oksana Maksymchuk\, he co-edited *Words for War: New Poems from Ukraine\,* and co-translated *Apricots of Donbas* by Lyuba Yakimchuk\, and *The Voices of Babyn Yar* by Marianna Kiyanovska. Their award-winning work has been supported by the Fritz Thyssen Foundation\, Institute for Human Sciences in Vienna\, Fulbright Scholar Program\, National Endowment for the Humanities\, and National Endowment for the Arts. He is a visiting scholar in Slavic languages and literatures at the University of Chicago.\n\nSvitlana Rogovyk is a teaching professor and language program coordinator in the U-M Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures. Svitlana specializes in second language acquisition and pedagogy\, language curriculum design and development\, teaching Slavic languages to heritage speakers\, and language proficiency assessment.\n \nThis panel is presented in coordination with the exhibition *Guardian Passage: The Power of Ukrainian Cultural Memory in the Face of War *featuring art by Irina Bondarenko and Katya Lisova on display in the International Institute Gallery (547 Weiser Hall) from October 2 - November 29\, 2023.\n \nThis project was made possible by a grant from the Arts Initiative at the University of Michigan and is co-sponsored by the Center for Russian\, East European\, and Eurasian Studies\; Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia\, LSA Theme Semester on Arts and Resistance\; U-M Arts Initiative\; and the University of Michigan Museum of Art.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu.

But for a long time political scientists have lacked systematic data on what these groups actually want out of policy. A new dataset of lobbying and testimony records from State legislatures allows unprecedentedly-detailed study of attempts to influence state politics. But it also brings many challenges. How should we understand — and model — the activities of groups so disparate as corporations\, trade associations\, nonprofits\, unions\, churches\, and so on? Common approaches from political science\, designed to capture the policy preferences of legislators\, do not adapt well to this case. Borrowing from the networks and complex systems world\, I propose methods for quantifying and characterizing the policy interests of these groups which capture (most of) the richness in the data while also making it legible for researchers. I also show how methods developed for recommender systems like Netflix or Spotify may be able to model the preferences of organized interests by treating them as “users” and the bills they lobby on as “products”. Finally\, I point to several ways in which this information can improve the broader quantitative study of legislative politics.\n\nBio:\nGalen started his PhD in Sociology in 2023. His primary research interests have so far focused on the politics of energy and climate in the American states and at the national level. After graduating in 2020 he worked in the Climate and Development Lab at Brown\, leading several studies on public counter-movements against greenhouse gas mitigation policies as well as state-level interest group politics. At Michigan he will continue this line of research using multiple methods\, primarily quantitative analysis of texts\, demographic and political data\, and data on interest groups.

In particular\, our understanding of the Late Formative (600 BCE - 200 CE) remains underdeveloped. Based on extensive surveys and limited excavation data\, it has been argued that significant changes occurred in the economic and political realms during this period. The Late Formative is hypothesized to have been a time of increasing political complexity and expanding engagement in interregional exchange. However\, the process behind how these changes came about remains unclear. In this talk\, I utilize data from both regional surveys as well as excavations at various sites throughout the region to detail the current state of knowledge on Formative Cusco. After providing this background\, I will present the results of two seasons of excavations at the site of Muyumoqo\, a potential Late Formative political and economic center located in the Chit'apampa Basin. Extensive horizontal excavations have provided supporting evidence for Muyumoqo's role as an economic and political center during the Late Formative. As I will discuss\, the site appears distinct from other known Late Formative communities and may provide early evidence for the consumption of chicha. Finally\, I will also briefly discuss the finding of a potential\, persistent household ritual practice.

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:114465-21832924@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:20240812T102513 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231109T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231109T150000 SUMMARY:Other:The Farm Stand DESCRIPTION:The Farm Stand is a weekly pop-up market and education project that sells produce grown by students for students.

ABET also considers vital teamwork skills as one key student learning outcome for accreditation and evaluation of engineering education. Research shows that student learning outcomes are highly affected by faculty beliefs about teaching and learning. Effective professional development programs for faculty need to understand their beliefs as these beliefs shape their teaching practices. As engineering practice and engineering education are becoming increasingly globalized\, we need to take a more culturally relevant approach to understand how key competencies such as teamwork are culturally constructed and how the development of faculty beliefs is affected by broader cultural factors. In this seminar\, Yi will introduce some of her educational background and research experiences to provide an international lens to understand teamwork in engineering education. She will then present a systematic review of the existing Chinese literature on how Chinese faculty conceptualize teamwork in the classroom. In conclusion\, she will also talk about some parts of her dissertation\, how faculty in the US develop their teaching beliefs about teamwork.

The results have far-reaching impacts ranging from providing the most detailed and quantitative measures of the star formation histories of low-mass galaxies and insights into their growth across cosmic timescales\, to determining precise distances to galaxies throughout the Local Volume which place galaxy properties on an absolute scale and are essential inputs for measuring of the local value of the Hubble Constant.\n\nIn this talk\, I will (i) highlight recent results from resolved star studies on very low-mass galaxies with HST data\, (ii) present the first star formation history of a galaxy with JWST data alongside a comparison to HST data of the same field\, and (iii) introduce new tip of the giant branch (TRGB) distance calibrations derived from HST infrared data and JWST data on nearby galaxies\, the latter of which paves the way for a JWST-based measure of the Hubble Constant.

DESCRIPTION:Actual and perceived gender norms are key to understanding gender inequality. Using newly-collected\, nationally representative datasets from 60 countries covering 80% of the world population\, this paper studies gender norms on two policy issues: basic rights\, allowing women to work outside of the home\, and affirmative action\, prioritizing women when hiring for leadership positions. Misperceptions of gender norms are pervasive across the world\, and the nature of the misperception is context-dependent. In less gender-equal countries\, people underestimate support for both policies\, particularly support among men\; in more gender-equal countries\, people overestimate support for affirmative action\, particularly support among women\, and underestimate support for basic rights. Gender stereotyping and overweighting of minority views are potential drivers of the global patterns of misperceptions. Our findings indicate how misperceptions of gender norms may obstruct progress toward gender equality and contribute to sustaining gender policies that are not necessarily favored by women.\n\n\nThis talk is presented by the Economic Development Seminar\, sponsored in part by the Department of Economics through a generous gift given by Jay and Beth Rakow.

A well-established treatment modality (continuous positive airway pressure) is often ineffective in mitigating these co-morbidities. Thus\, the development of novel treatments to eliminate apnea and mitigate associated co-morbidities is imperative. We are addressing this mandate by determining if repeated exposure to mild intermittent hypoxia (MIH) mitigates cardiovascular dysfunction and enhances performance fatigability. We propose that exposure to MIH has a multipronged effect. MIH directly targets cardiovascular co-morbidities\, while simultaneously enhancing upper airway stability and increasing the arousal threshold. These modifications may serve to directly mitigate apnea. Alternatively\, these modifications may serve to improve treatment adherence with continuous positive airway pressure. Independent of its effect\, MIH may serve as an adjunctive therapy which provides another path to mitigating cardiovascular co-morbidities that might ultimately result in improvements in performance fatigability.\n\nBio:\nDr. Mateika is a respiratory physiologist who is presently investigating the impact of genetically or spinal cord injury induced reductions in central nervous system serotonin on mechanisms that influence breathing stability and cardiovascular/autonomic function in mice. Dr. Mateika is also exploring if repeated daily exposure to mild intermittent hypoxia independently or combined with continuous positive airway pressure mitigates co-morbidities (i.e. hypertension) linked to sleep apnea in humans.

Appalachia? The Talimali Band of Apalachee Indians\, Twenty-First Century Colonialism\, and the Struggle for Tribal Sovereignty DESCRIPTION:Colonial studies are often conducted within the “bubble” of academia and in isolation from the descendants of the communities most dramatically impacted by the ravages of colonialism. In this talk\, Kimberly C. Borchard (Randolph-Macon College) will discuss how her first monograph\, Appalachia as Contested Borderland of the Early Modern Atlantic\, 1528-1715\, in chronicling two centuries of atrocities committed against the Apalachee people and other Native societies of the American southeast\, led to a new project documenting Apalachee history since 1763. Through contact with living descendants of the people that first encountered Spanish gold-seekers in the Florida peninsula in the early sixteenth century\, Borchard has transitioned from purely historical research to contemporary advocacy for living members of the Apalachee tribe\, whose land claims and sovereignty continue to be systematically ignored by the U.S. government.\n\nKim Borchard earned her B.A. and M.A. from Ohio University and her Ph.D. from the University of Chicago. She teaches courses in Spanish\, Latin American colonial literature\, the social issues surrounding Latin American immigration to the U.S.\, and humor in Spanish at Randolph-Macon College in Ashland\, Virginia. Her first book\, Appalachia as Contested Borderland of the Early Modern Atlantic\, 1528-1715 explores the European obsession with Appalachian mineral resources from 1528 to 1715\, reframing Appalachian history within the fields of Latin American\, early American\, and Atlantic history. Her next book\, tentatively titled The Talimali Band the Apalachee Indians of Louisiana: The Struggle for Survival and Federal Reinstatement of One of America's Oldest Tribes\, 1763-2024\, will document the history of the Apalachee diaspora in Louisiana after the tribe's expulsion from Florida in 1704.

A decade later\, living in political exile in Germany\, he was found brutally murdered. \nThe murder\, still unsolved\, serves as the starting point for “Things Hidden Since the Foundation of the World\,” a new theatrical work by British-Iranian theater maker Javaad Alipoor\, featuring Iranian musician\, writer\, actor\, and podcast host King Raam. The show will be staged as part of the UMS season while this series event will bring Alipoor and Raam together to showcase their individual practices and a discussion of their collaboration and their common cultural background and influences.\nJavaad Alipoor is an artist\, writer\, and the Artistic Director of The Javaad Alipoor Company. He is a former ACE changemaker and was Resident Associate Director at Sheffield Theatres for their 2017/18 season\, and prior to this was Associate Director at Theatre in the Mill from 2015 to 2017. He was a founding member of the International Alliance in Support of Iranian Workers\, the Syria Solidarity Campaign\, and the Bradford-based pro-EU Migrant organization #BradfordSaysEveryoneStays. Alipoor’s writing about international politics\, cultural policy\, and art has been featured in The Guardian\, The Independent\, and The Stage.

With a great deal of international press behind his band\, including features in the New York Times\, MTV\, Billboard\, NPR\, CNN\, VICE\, NME and Vanity Fair\, Raam paved the way for a new generation of aspiring underground Iranian artists. Besides his live shows with his band\, Raam has also channeled his creative energy into a one man storytelling performance called “Departure” about his family'\;s experience of detainment and his father’s murder by the state\, woven together with his music.He also has a podcast in Persian called \"Masty o Rasty\,\" which translates to the Drunken Truth. Since its inception in 2020 the show has had over 40 million streams.\nThis event will be moderated by twenty-year veteran of NPR\, Neda Ulaby who reports on arts\, entertainment\, and cultural trends for NPR'\;s Arts Desk.

UM-Ann Arbor professor of anthropology Hakem Al-Rustom\, will be the discussant for this event. Refreshments will be provided!\n \nAbout the book:\n \nSince Iran's 1979 Revolution\, the imperative to create and protect the inner purity of family and nation in the face of outside spiritual corruption has been a driving force in national politics. Through extensive fieldwork\, Professor Rose Wellman examines how Basiji families\, as members of Iran's voluntary paramilitary organization\, encounter\, enact\, and challenge this imperative. Her ethnography reveals how families and state elites employ blood\, food\, and prayer in commemorations of martyrs in Islamic national rituals to create citizens who embody familial piety\, purity\, and closeness to God.\n \n *Feeding Iran: Shi`i Families and the Making of the Islamic Republic* provides a rare and humanistic account of religion and family life in the post-revolutionary Islamic Republic that examines how home life and everyday piety are linked to state power.\n \nAbout the author:\n \n Rose Wellman is an anthropologist who specializes in Iran\, the Middle East\, and its diaspora\, including Arab Detroit. Her book *Feeding Iran: Shi’i Families and the Making of the Islamic Republic* draws from ethnographic research in Iran between 2007 and 2010 to explore how everyday family life and piety are linked to state power. Wellman is currently conducting research with Arab Americans that focuses on Metro Detroit’s vibrant Iraqi community. She is a faculty affiliate of the Center for Arab American Narratives at ACCESS and a member of Healthy Dearborn’s research committee. Wellman’s courses at the University of Michigan-Dearborn cover subjects as diverse as the Middle East\, religion\, kinship and marriage\, food\, Islam\, Islamophobia\, anti-racism\, globalization\, and Arab America\, emphasizing critical thinking and project-based learning in a globalized world. Wellman further draws from her research in Metro Detroit and beyond to provide students with real-world ethnographic research experiences and opportunities to engage the diverse community of Southeast Michigan. Between 2014 and 2017\, Wellman was a postdoctoral research associate at Princeton University’s Sharmin and Bijan Mossavar-Rahmani Center for Iran and Persian Gulf Studies. She earned her Ph.D. from the University of Virginia in 2014 and her B.A. from Mount Holyoke College in 2005.\n \nAbout the commentator:\n \nHakem Al-Rustom is the Alex Manoogian Professor of Modern Armenian History and assistant professor of history and anthropology at the University of Michigan. His work interrogates ruins of undocumented histories\, ethnographic silences\, and memory as methods for historical ethnographies in the aftermath of violence. He is the co-editor of *Edward Said: A Legacy of Emancipation and Representation* (University of California Press 2010) and is currently finishing a book on the afterlives of the *Armenian Genocide in Turkey* (by Columbia University Press).\n \n \n This event is brought to you by the Global Islamic Studies Center (GISC) at the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor.\n \n Want to hear about similar events from U-M Islamic Studies?

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.

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.

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.

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:110231-21824622@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/110231 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Theme Semester,Visual Arts LOCATION:202 S.

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.

The title of the 2-day conference\, part of the Nam Center’s Perspectives on Contemporary Korea conference series\, references the visceral\, emotional experiences embedded in and conjured by Korean music performance across many eras\, genres\, and locations. In the 21st century\, Korean music defies geopolitical boundaries and the confines of genre as artists draw on their own experiences and communities to express the lived realities of the contemporary Korean experience. The music we explore in this symposium is inclusive of long-standing traditions and new creations on the Korean peninsula\, music performance in the Diaspora\, and collaborations drawing and expanding upon Korean musical aesthetics. The participants in this two-day event will explore the many notions of Korean music on and beyond the Korean peninsula\, through space and time\, and reimagined via multiple encounters and experiences.\n\nThis event will be a combination of traditional paper presentation\, roundtables\, and workshops. There will also be at least two performances during the two-day event. The event will be free & open to the public.

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.

Few modern states are free of dark histories of exclusion\, forced assimilation\, or more sanguinary solutions to the remnants of imperial diversity. Investigating states that were founded on dispossession of indigenous peoples\, we examine the Turkish past and the histories of the United States\, Israel\, and Australia\, among others. Turkey is not unique\, but its achievement in ridding Anatolia of Armenians and Assyrians\, like the removal of Native Americans from continental United States\, was admired by and positively referred to by Adolph Hitler as he planned his own genocidal policies in the lands to the east of Germany.\n\n Our conference examines the ideological and strategic choices made by Ottoman and Turkish nationalist leaders as they attempted to “modernize” their states through coercive demographic policies and the deployment of violence\, which became enshrined as part of the repertoire of governance in the Kemalist state. Having eliminated the bulk of Christians\, the heirs of the Ottomans repressed their former allies\, the Kurds\, turning what they conceived as a homogeneous ethnic nation-state into a mini-imperial state colonizing its non-Turkish subjects.\n \nJust as the controversial 1619 Project in the United States has contested the origins of the American republic by seeking its beginnings with the first importation of African slaves\, rather than the revolutionary events of 1776\, so shall this workshop explore the formative events and processes from the initiation of systemic reforms in the Ottoman Empire in 1789\, through the Tanzimat reforms of 1839 and 1876\, the coup d’état of 1908 and the Armenian Genocide of 1915-1916\, to the 1918 fall of the empire\, the 1919-1922 rise of the Kemalist nationalist movement\, and the 1923 founding of the Republic of Turkey.\n\nFor the schedule of events\, visit https://ii.umich.edu/armenian/news-events/all-events/workshops/november-2023-from-the-foundational-crime.html\n\n---\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at armenianstudies@umich.edu.

Using granular data on flooding and card expenditures\, we show that Harvey-induced flooding caused a modest increase in establishment exit. Using a model of consumer demand\, we find that Harvey-induced exits reduced consumer welfare by less than 2% on average\, but that welfare decreased by more than 12% in the hardest-hit census tracts. We discuss how to optimally allocate business aid after natural disasters.

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 this talk\, I will present statistical significance of clustering (SigClust) as a cluster evaluation tool for high dimensional data. To begin\, we define a cluster as data originating from a single Gaussian distribution and frame the assessment of statistical significance of clustering as a formal testing procedure. Addressing the challenge of high-dimensional covariance estimation in SigClust\, we employ a combination of invariance principles and a factor analysis model. I'll also discuss an enhanced SigClust using multidimensional scaling (MDS) on dissimilarity matrices. SigClust for hierarchical clustering will be presented as well. Simulations and real data\, including cancer subtype analysis\, validate SigClust's effectiveness in assessing clustering significance.\n\n\nhttps://yfliu.web.unc.edu/ UID:109435-21822024@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/109435 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:seminar LOCATION:West Hall - 340 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231016T165604 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20231110T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20231110T210000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Veterans Week 2023 DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan-Ann Arbor is proud to host the 2023 Veterans Week celebration\, running Nov. 6-10. \n\nThis annual event features a week of programming that educates and celebrates the experiences and sacrifice of those who have served our country.

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.

A light lunch will be served. \n\nAbstract:\nIn his seminal 1993 text Discrepant Engagement: Dissonance\, Cross-Culturality and Experimental Writing\, Nathaniel Mackey proposes a mode of critical reading that\, \"rather than suppressing resonance\, dissonance\, noise\, seeks to remain open to them.\" This kind of engagement\, from which the book takes its title\, proceeds by combination of materials our disciplines have not normally grouped under a common rubric. Discrepant engagement is more than mere pluralism--more\, that is\, than an openness to variety regarding objects of scholarly reflection. It is\, rather\, a rigorous method of scholarly oscillation\, mixing\, and layering\, whereby new creative possibilities are systematically opened up. In this chapter\, I have two main contentions. First\, I argue that Mackey's concept of discrepant engagement implies a certain metaphysical outlook\, derived from a wide range of sources\, including process philosophy\, deconstruction\, postcolonial thought\, quantum mechanics\, Rastafari\, Sufi\, and Dogon religious practice\, the poetics of projective verse\, and African American musical tradition\, among too many others to list. Second\, I argue that this metaphysical outlook governs the technical and conceptual innovations of Mackey's poetry. Mackey\, as poet-metaphysician\, offers a way of re-conceiving being\, figuring it as \"vibrational\, rather than corpuscular\,\" and in so doing\, provides a model of poetic understanding with implications for both scholarly and poetic practice.

They provide essential nutrients for metabolism\, eliminate waste\, enable cell-to-cell communication\, and store the potential energy that fuels life. Yet\, despite their overwhelming importance\, we still lack a physical and molecular understanding of why membrane transport proteins form stable structures that enable their specific functions within the oil-filled environment of the lipid bilayer. Our lack of understanding here is well rationalized by the inherent challenge of measuring equilibrium reactions of membrane protein assembly in membranes\, compounded by the complexity of the reaction solvent as a structured lipid bilayer. However\, through a combination of novel experimental single-molecule microscopy approaches coupled with coarse-grained and all-atom computational modeling\, we can now measure equilibrium constants of protein association in membranes and dissect out the important molecular contributions from the protein and surrounding membrane. Here\, I present our results on two systems where reversible binding within membranes can be quantitatively assessed - the homodimeric CLC-ec1 chloride/proton antiporter and the dual-topology homodimeric Fluc fluoride ion channel. By combining experimental and computational studies\, we identify a driving force for protein association that arises from state-dependent perturbation of the membrane structure\, and a mechanism for tuning dimerization stability by altering solvation energetics through preferential solvation. These results present a generalizable driving force for membrane protein assembly in membranes that is expected to apply to all ion channels and transporters.

They are leaders in the community and food service industry\, founders of a nonprofit food rescue program and food bank\, and deliver the Zingermans experience in eleven different businesses with roughly $70\,000\,000 in annual sales. All while staying true to their beliefs.\n\nAlthough most of us don’t realize it\, our beliefs have a major impact on how things go in our lives. What we believe may or may not be true\, but unknowingly most of us will behave in ways that reinforce our beliefs anyway. In this workshop\, keynote\, Ari Weinzweig\, Cofounding Partner of Zingerman’s Community of Businesses\, will take a look at how the impact of those beliefs likely plays out in our day-to-day experiences\, and how our workplaces\, social circles\, and we are impacted by those beliefs. Whether we accept it or not\, what we believe about ourselves\, our organization\, our co-workers\, our boss\, the work that we do and our ability to do it will significantly alter the outcomes we are seeking to achieve. And how\, by becoming more mindful of our beliefs\, we can effectively backtrack— by altering our beliefs\, we change the way we see our work and the world and then\, in turn\, significantly alter the outcomes we get from our efforts. \n\nAri Weinzweig\n\nAri Weinzweig is CEO and co-founding partner of Zingerman’s Community of Businesses\, which includes Zingerman's Delicatessen\, Bakehouse\, Creamery\, Catering\, Mail Order\, ZingTrain\, Coffee Company\, Roadhouse\, Candy Manufactory\, Events at Cornman Farms\, Miss Kim\, and Zingerman’s Food Tours.\n\nZingerman’s produces\, sells\, and serves all sorts of full flavored\, traditional foods in its home of Ann Arbor\, Michigan to the tune of $70\,000\,000 a year in annual sales. Ari was recognized as one of the “Who’s Who of Food & Beverage in America” by the 2006 James Beard Foundation and has awarded a Bon Appétit Lifetime Achievement Award\, among many recognitions. Ari is the author of a number of articles and books\, including Zingerman’s Guide to Good Eating\, Zingerman’s Guide to Better Bacon\, Zingerman’s Guide to Giving Great Service\, Zingerman’s Guide to Good Leading\, Part 1: A Lapsed Anarchist’s Approach to Building a Great Business\, Zingerman's Guide to Good Leading\, Part 2: A Lapsed Anarchist’s Approach to Being a Better Leader\, Zingerman's Guide to Good Leading\, Part 3: A Lapsed Anarchist's Approach to Managing Ourselves\, Zingerman's Guide to Good Leading\, and Part 4: A Lapsed Anarchist's Approach to the Power of Beliefs in Business.\n\nIn 2017\, Ari was named one of “The World's 10 Top CEOs (They Lead in a Totally Unique Way)” by Inc.

This study examines the use of two-sided labor market platforms as a private governance solution to protect vulnerable workers in contexts where the power dynamics between employers and workers are highly unequal. Specifically\, we collaborated with a Singapore-based online platform that connects foreign domestic workers with employers (families). In this setting\, it is not uncommon for workers to be mistreated by employers via various forms of exploitation and abuse. The collaborating platform was interested in exploring whether introducing a new rating system that allows workers to rate employers could improve this situation for workers. Accordingly\, we randomized communication about such a rating system and examined how each side of the platform reacted. We found that employers did not respond positively to the rating system\, though their negative reaction was offset if they were nudged to consider the instrumental benefits of the intervention for them. Surprisingly\, workers also disliked the idea of the rating system\, despite it being intended to protect and empower them. Post-hoc analysis and interviews suggest that the most vulnerable workers were particularly concerned about the employer-rating system. Our paper illustrates that\, in settings with large power differentials\, platform governance mechanisms intended to help vulnerable workers could have unintended negative consequences. It thus highlights the importance of understanding the nuanced determinants of vulnerable workers’ challenges when considering whether platform governance might improve or exacerbate them.

Frequently\, this can be formulated as computing a probability measure on physical characteristics of a system from observed data on the output of a model of system behavior. In abstract terms\, this is the empirical stochastic inverse problem for a random vector on a probability space with an unknown probability measure. Over the last fifteen years\, collaborators and I have developed a general Bayesian approach to the formulation and solution of this problem. Our approach has a solid theoretical foundation that avoids alterations of the model like regularization as well as unrealistic and limiting assumptions about prior knowledge of system characteristics\, allows for numerical solution by a novel importance sampling approach\, and provides a platform to address critical issues arising in the practical application to scientific and engineering problems. I will lay out the theoretical and computational foundation of our approach with the details motivated by practical applications including optimizing car mileage\, cooking steaks\, hurricane storm surge forecasting\, and forecasting COVID surges. Time permitting\, I will discuss the relationship with common Bayesian statistics.\n\nSpeaker Bio: Don Estep is the Director of the Canadian Statistical Sciences Institute and is Canada Research Chair in Computational Probability and Uncertainty Quantification in the Department of Statistics and Actuarial Science at Simon Fraser University.\n\nTalk will be in-person and on Zoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/98734707290\n\n[Contact: R.

It can be embedded into a multi-projective space\, where it is cut out by the incidence Plücker relations. We explore two extensions of this variety: First\, we study the nonnegative flag variety\, which corresponds to a subset of the flag variety consisting of flags that can be represented by totally positive matrices. Second\, we study the tropicalization of the flag variety and\, more specifically\, its nonnegative part. In both cases\, we provide equivalent descriptions of these spaces for flag varieties of rank r=(a\,a+1\,...\,b)\, where r consists of consecutive integers. We also explore descriptions of the nonnegative tropical flag variety in terms of polytopal subdivisions. This talk is based on joint work with Chris Eur and Lauren Williams.

Suppose that Sam is Black by US standards but White by Brazilian standards. What is Sam’s race? We need to avoid the conclusion that they are both Black (since the US view is not in error) and not Black (since the Brazilian view is not in error either)\, and in general we need a consistent way to assign social statuses when grids collide. Enter the social relationalist. Social relationalism is the view that social statuses are not simple monadic properties but rather dyadic relations to social rules. For the social relationalist\, there is no simple monadic property of being Black (/White) for Sam to have. Rather Sam is a person who is both racialized as Black relative to the US one drop rule\, and also racialized as White relative to Brazilian appearance-based rules. These are consistent relational statuses. More generally—the social relationalist concludes—we are all persons who are racialized\, gendered\, and otherwise classified in various ways only relative to various grids.

All life\, extinct and extant\, must abide by the same physical laws. Through an understanding of these physical properties\, we can place quantitative constraints on the life habits and ecological roles of extinct organisms. Open-source tools and other emerging technologies can help answer broad questions in paleobiology by enabling detailed reconstructions of fossils and the biomechanical properties of their once-living counterparts. This talk will focus on using such an approach (involving computer modeling\, robotics\, and other tools) to investigate the aquatic biomechanics of a model system spanning ~0.5 billion years – the externally shelled cephalopods (i.e.\, ammonoids and nautiloids). The evolutionary history of these animals\, and their hydromechanical properties\, illuminate unique solutions to the obstacles presented by aquatic locomotion\, involving buoyancy\, stability\, maneuverability\, control\, and locomotive efficiency. These form-function relationships add context to early benthic-nektic transitions and various marine radiations\, while highlighting fundamental constraints on aquatic locomotion more broadly.

I will talk about the generalizations of the analogous problem for graphs. In particular\, we give conditions on characterizing hyperbolicity phenomena in free-by-cyclic groups\, and more general free group extensions\, and show how the geometry of the extension is reflected in the dynamics of the monodromy.

These techniques\, however\, are not as widely used at the NRC for reactor licensing calculations. Several factors are at play that will likely result in an increase in the use of CFD techniques. Reactor vendors are using CFD in the design of new reactors\, computer capacity increases have made the analyses more practical\, and recent engineering graduates are familiar with the approach. The ability to predict complex flow behavior in almost any geometry gives CFD the potential to add insights for certain safety analyses that are not realizable with the traditional reactor system codes. Challenges\, observations\, and lessons learned from 25 years of working with CFD techniques at the NRC are discussed along with considerations for the future.  \n\nDr. Christopher Boyd is a senior level advisor for computational fluid dynamics (CFD) within the Office of Research at the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). His focus is on CFD analyses and benchmarking efforts aimed at understanding safety issues and reducing uncertainty with the overall goal of improving regulatory effectiveness at the NRC. Prior to working for the NRC\, he worked as a wind tunnel project engineer focused on measurement techniques and calibration issues in high speed wind tunnels at the Naval Surface Warfare Center in White Oak\, Maryland. Dr. Boyd received a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Maryland in 1996 with academic research interests in turbulence\, modelling\, and heat transfer.

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.\n\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).\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 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 title of the 2-day conference\, part of the Nam Center’s Perspectives on Contemporary Korea conference series\, references the visceral\, emotional experiences embedded in and conjured by Korean music performance across many eras\, genres\, and locations. In the 21st century\, Korean music defies geopolitical boundaries and the confines of genre as artists draw on their own experiences and communities to express the lived realities of the contemporary Korean experience. The music we explore in this symposium is inclusive of long-standing traditions and new creations on the Korean peninsula\, music performance in the Diaspora\, and collaborations drawing and expanding upon Korean musical aesthetics. The participants in this two-day event will explore the many notions of Korean music on and beyond the Korean peninsula\, through space and time\, and reimagined via multiple encounters and experiences.\n\nThis event will be a combination of traditional paper presentation\, roundtables\, and workshops. There will also be at least two performances during the two-day event. The event will be free & open to the public. Attendance will be available both in-person and virtual.\n\nThis event is a program feature of the U-M Fall 2023 Festival of Asian Music. https://smtd.umich.edu/asian-music-festival/ UID:113566-21831165@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/113566 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Asia,Korea,Music,Performance LOCATION:Earl V.
