SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manga no Ryokou: The “Manga Map” and A Journey Through the Art of Depiction in Japanese Cartography
DESCRIPTION:The exhibit examines the intersection between art\, narrative\, and geography within Japanese cartography. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Shadow and Light : Solidarity and Connection with Iraqi Academics
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit incorporates a selection of work from the Shadow and Light project\, an initiative memorializing Iraqi academics assassinated between 2003-2013\, a timeframe which roughly parallels the US-led invasion and occupation of Iraq. \n\nParticipants from around the world — including Iraqis in diaspora — contributed photographs and personal statements responding to the loss of a particular Iraqi academic listed by the Spanish Campaign against the Occupation and for the Sovereignty of Iraq (La Campaña Estatal contra la Ocupación y por la Soberanía de Iraq / IraqSolidaridad 2005-2013). \n\nThe project emerges from a broader effort undertaken by Iraqis and allies to document the assault on Iraqi scholars\, intellectuals\, and cultural institutions which flared in the wake of the destruction and division wrought by the US-led invasion and occupation. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Sentimental Archive: Remembering Nubia through Salvage Anthropology
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit showcases select photographs from The American University in Cairo’s Rare Books and Special Collections Library taken by the renowned Egyptian photographer Abd al-Fattah Eid as well as by the Cairo-born Swiss artist Margo Veillon.\n\nIn 1964\, the construction of the Aswan High Dam displaced Nubians from their ancestral villages along the banks of the Nile in Egypt. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Illustrating the Renaissance Book: From Illumination to Woodcut
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy a selection of manuscripts and early printed books from the 15th to the 17th centuries that were illustrated with illuminations and woodcuts. 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.

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

DESCRIPTION:Stop by the Student Showcase display in the museum’s main atrium\, behind the mastodons\, to see Molecules of Life.\n\nAugust 2023–July 2024\n\nMolecules of Life (Student Showcase)\nDiscover the connection between form and function as you explore the molecular building blocks of life. In the realm of biological macromolecules such as proteins and nucleic acids\, form determines function\, so visualizing the three-dimensional structures of molecules is key in researching the ‘tiny’ macromolecules that perform vital functions in our cells. In Biophysics 421\, under the guidance of Markos Koutmos\, Assistant Professor of Biophysics & Chemistry\, and Liz Tidwell\, PhD candidate in Biophysics\, students created models with digital modeling software and brought them to life via 3D printing. This exhibit showcases the 3D printed molecules\, scaled up to better reveal the structures that inform\, make\, break\, modify\, and move within the body.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Respond/ Resist/ Rethink 2023
DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with the Fall 2023 Theme Semester: Arts &amp\; 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 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&#039\;s personal politics\, an artwork&#039\;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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Blessings of the Mystery
DESCRIPTION:The Blessings of the Mystery examines themes of socio-economic\, environmental activism\, encounters between history and memory\, Indigenous rights\, and the formation and distribution of knowledge. 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.

SUMMARY:Performance:Attempts on Her Life
DESCRIPTION:Come celebrate Rude Mechanicals' 27th annual season with Attempts on Her Life\, written by Martin Crimp and directed by Tiara Partsch. A fast-paced\, vibrant and thrilling nonlinear script\, Attempts on Her Life unfurls in 17 wildly different scenarios: an ensemble of actors find themselves attempting to define the life of a mysterious figure named Anne\, whose various identities and narratives always seem to elude them. The play embraces a meta-physical\, absurdist approach as we find ourselves navigating a provocative\, lyrical and dangerous prose: Crimp’s world is ominous\, and this play puts forth the complexities of our contemporary world– blurring the lines between reality and performance art\, the play asks that we reconsider the very ways we think of personal and collective narrative in a world that feels like it’s about to blow. \n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4397/4399 for more detail.

SUMMARY:Performance:The Bucket List
DESCRIPTION:Groove is a comedic\, high energy\, non-traditional percussion and performance group. We (usually) have one goal: to rock the masses. To achieve it\, we drum on anything and make music out of everything!\n\nBut recently\, we’ve decided that maybe we should expand our goals beyond rocking the masses. Beyond the music\, beyond the fortune and fame that comes with rock-star status\, and even beyond rock hard\, tasty abs\, washer-board style. \n\nLife is short\, the world is wide\, drums are loud\, and Groove needs to start thinking about bigger and better things before we “kick the bucket”. And that’s why Groove Presents: The Bucket List.\n\nOur bucket list items include\, but are not limited to: skydiving\, learning to play the kazoo\, seeing the northern lights\, reminiscing about songs that played on grandma’s radio\, swimming with sharks\, and redirecting our musical efforts into becoming a Meghan Trainor cover band.  \n\nAdd this semester’s show to YOUR bucket list. You won’t want to miss it.\n\nFollow us for more! @umgroove\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4479/4481 for more detail.

SUMMARY:Performance:\"Tales from our Roots\,\" a senior dance performance 
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan Department of Dance presents *Tales from our Roots*\, a concert featuring group and solo choreography and performance by senior BFA dance majors Rae Beck\, Ruby Clay\, and Claire Schick.\n\nRae Beck’s\, *Mina\, The One Who Sees All*\, utilizes storytelling and dance to explore the concept of traveling into a fantasy realm. *The Typist* investigates the relationship between the artist and the machine. \n\nRuby Clay’s dance\, *B4 L8R*\, addresses the dichotomy between sisterhood and loneliness. Clay drew inspiration from their personal “unfinished business” and literature from the 1960s counterculture in making the work. \n\nInspired by the photography of Justine Kurland titled “Girl Pictures”\, Claire Schick’s\, *Sisters I Never Had*\, depicts a cast rebelling\, playing\, and lavishing in each other's company within nature. Schick’s solo\, *The Ballad of Big Trees*\, is in honor of Henry Cowell State Redwood Park in Santa Cruz\, California\, which holds a special place in Claire’s family and life.\n\nThis concert will be performed Thursday\, November 30 through Saturday\, December 2\, 2023. Shows begin at 8:00pm. (Livestreaming on December 1.) Tickets are free\, available at the door an hour before the start time.

SUMMARY:Performance:Imogen Says Nothing
DESCRIPTION:In the first folio of Shakepeare’s *Much Ado About Nothing*\, a character named Imogen appears briefly in the stage directions. She speaks no lines and is probably a typo. \n\nIn Aditi Kapil’s *Imogen Says Nothing*\, Imogen is a woman in Elizabethan England whose life is changed by the opportunity to appear in a performance of *Much Ado About Nothing* – an opportunity reserved solely for men. Imogen appears on stage as a woman playing a man playing a woman. To make matters more complicated\, Imogen is also a bear. \n\nA revisionist comedy in verse and prose\, this feminist hijacking of Shakespeare investigates the voices that have long been absent from the theatrical canon\, and the consequences of cutting them. \n\n*Imogen Says Nothing* premiered on January 20\, 2017\, at the Yale Repertory Theatre\, which also commissioned the play\, in New Haven\, Connecticut.\n\nWritten by Aditi Kapil\nDirected by Malcolm Tulip\n\nFUN FACTS:  Aditi Kapil took the title from a piece of dialogue in *Much Ado About Nothing*. Beatrice\, when describing Benedick\, says\, “The one is too like an image and says nothing.” \n\nAditi Kapil discusses the development of Imogen at Yale here: \nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QUZc0lWwiqI

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manga no Ryokou: The “Manga Map” and A Journey Through the Art of Depiction in Japanese Cartography
DESCRIPTION:The exhibit examines the intersection between art\, narrative\, and geography within Japanese cartography. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Shadow and Light : Solidarity and Connection with Iraqi Academics
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit incorporates a selection of work from the Shadow and Light project\, an initiative memorializing Iraqi academics assassinated between 2003-2013\, a timeframe which roughly parallels the US-led invasion and occupation of Iraq. \n\nParticipants from around the world — including Iraqis in diaspora — contributed photographs and personal statements responding to the loss of a particular Iraqi academic listed by the Spanish Campaign against the Occupation and for the Sovereignty of Iraq (La Campaña Estatal contra la Ocupación y por la Soberanía de Iraq / IraqSolidaridad 2005-2013). \n\nThe project emerges from a broader effort undertaken by Iraqis and allies to document the assault on Iraqi scholars\, intellectuals\, and cultural institutions which flared in the wake of the destruction and division wrought by the US-led invasion and occupation. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Sentimental Archive: Remembering Nubia through Salvage Anthropology
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit showcases select photographs from The American University in Cairo’s Rare Books and Special Collections Library taken by the renowned Egyptian photographer Abd al-Fattah Eid as well as by the Cairo-born Swiss artist Margo Veillon.\n\nIn 1964\, the construction of the Aswan High Dam displaced Nubians from their ancestral villages along the banks of the Nile in Egypt. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Illustrating the Renaissance Book: From Illumination to Woodcut
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy a selection of manuscripts and early printed books from the 15th to the 17th centuries that were illustrated with illuminations and woodcuts. 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.

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

SUMMARY:Performance:Attempts on Her Life
DESCRIPTION:Come celebrate Rude Mechanicals' 27th annual season with Attempts on Her Life\, written by Martin Crimp and directed by Tiara Partsch. A fast-paced\, vibrant and thrilling nonlinear script\, Attempts on Her Life unfurls in 17 wildly different scenarios: an ensemble of actors find themselves attempting to define the life of a mysterious figure named Anne\, whose various identities and narratives always seem to elude them. The play embraces a meta-physical\, absurdist approach as we find ourselves navigating a provocative\, lyrical and dangerous prose: Crimp’s world is ominous\, and this play puts forth the complexities of our contemporary world– blurring the lines between reality and performance art\, the play asks that we reconsider the very ways we think of personal and collective narrative in a world that feels like it’s about to blow. \n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4397/4400 for more detail.

SUMMARY:Performance:Imogen Says Nothing
DESCRIPTION:In the first folio of Shakepeare’s *Much Ado About Nothing*\, a character named Imogen appears briefly in the stage directions. She speaks no lines and is probably a typo. \n\nIn Aditi Kapil’s *Imogen Says Nothing*\, Imogen is a woman in Elizabethan England whose life is changed by the opportunity to appear in a performance of *Much Ado About Nothing* – an opportunity reserved solely for men. Imogen appears on stage as a woman playing a man playing a woman. To make matters more complicated\, Imogen is also a bear. \n\nA revisionist comedy in verse and prose\, this feminist hijacking of Shakespeare investigates the voices that have long been absent from the theatrical canon\, and the consequences of cutting them. \n\n*Imogen Says Nothing* premiered on January 20\, 2017\, at the Yale Repertory Theatre\, which also commissioned the play\, in New Haven\, Connecticut.\n\nWritten by Aditi Kapil\nDirected by Malcolm Tulip\n\nFUN FACTS:  Aditi Kapil took the title from a piece of dialogue in *Much Ado About Nothing*. Beatrice\, when describing Benedick\, says\, “The one is too like an image and says nothing.” \n\nAditi Kapil discusses the development of Imogen at Yale here: \nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QUZc0lWwiqI

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:The Premodern Colloquium. Koryŏ's Economy: Draft Chapter for the Cambridge History of Korea—Koryŏ
DESCRIPTION:I just have a few questions for everyone to consider while reading the draft: (1) What do we mean by \"agrarian economy\"? Can agrarian economies also be cash economies? (2) According to Richard von Glahn\, during the Mongol Yuan dynasty\, \"the attempt to assimilate Mongol institutions with the norms of Chinese imperial governance engendered multiple and conflicting hierarchies rather than bureaucratic order\,\" which resulted in failure to establish a stable fiscal infrastructure. Must \"multiple and conflicting hierarchies\" (which was also present in late Koryŏ Korea) result in fiscal instability? Can we find exceptions to this rule in other historical contexts? (3) More generally\, can we assume that institutional and cultural differences necessarily produce divergent outcomes in economic performance? Or should we consider other factors to explain these divergences?\"

SUMMARY:Performance:Seamus Egan
DESCRIPTION:New solo music from the founder of Solas\n\nIt’s hard to think of an artist in traditional Irish music more influential than Seamus Egan. From his beginnings as a teen prodigy\, to his groundbreaking solo work with Shanachie Records\, to his founding of Irish-American powerhouse band Solas\, to his current work as one of the leading composers and interpreters of the tradition\, Egan has inspired multiple generations of musicians and helped define the sound of Irish music today. As a multi-instrumentalist\, he’s put his mark on the sound of the Irish flute\, tenor banjo\, guitar\, mandolin\, tin whistle\, and low whistle\, among others. As a composer\, he was behind the soundtrack for the award-winning film “The Brothers McMullen\,” co-wrote Sarah McLachlan’s breakout hit\, “I Will Remember You\,” and has scored numerous documentaries and indie films since. As a bandleader\, Solas was the preeminent Irish-American band of their generation for decades\, continuously renewing Irish music with fresh ideas. As a performer\, few others can make so many instruments or such wickedly complex ornaments seem so effortless. Music comes as naturally to Seamus Egan as breath\, but his mastery of the tradition is only one facet of his plans to move the music forward. Seamus comes to Michigan with a new album\, “Good Winter.”\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4282/4283 for more detail.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CCPS Exhibition. Modernist Glass from the Polish Past
DESCRIPTION:The glass in this rare collection represents the work of renowned Polish glass artists and designers created between 1960 and 1980. Known as Polskie szkło artystyczne (Polish art glass)\, the works were produced in glass factories in southern Poland and are a feature of many homes throughout Central Europe. The glass masters were trained in schools of art and design and many achieved international fame during their lifetimes. \n\nThe collectors\, Endi Poskovic and his wife Julie Anne Visco\, began acquiring the glass in 2015-16 while Endi was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. Scouring flea markets\, antique shops\, and websites\, they continue to acquire pieces and build the collection to this day. We are grateful to them for making this remarkable exhibit possible at CCPS and WCEE.\n\nOrganized by the Copernicus Center for Polish Studies\, this exhibition is co-sponsored by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design and Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia.\n\nLearn more about the exhibition and the artists at https://myumi.ch/8eVrM\n\nThe exhibit opens on September 15\, 2023 in 1010 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manga no Ryokou: The “Manga Map” and A Journey Through the Art of Depiction in Japanese Cartography
DESCRIPTION:The exhibit examines the intersection between art\, narrative\, and geography within Japanese cartography. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Shadow and Light : Solidarity and Connection with Iraqi Academics
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit incorporates a selection of work from the Shadow and Light project\, an initiative memorializing Iraqi academics assassinated between 2003-2013\, a timeframe which roughly parallels the US-led invasion and occupation of Iraq. \n\nParticipants from around the world — including Iraqis in diaspora — contributed photographs and personal statements responding to the loss of a particular Iraqi academic listed by the Spanish Campaign against the Occupation and for the Sovereignty of Iraq (La Campaña Estatal contra la Ocupación y por la Soberanía de Iraq / IraqSolidaridad 2005-2013). \n\nThe project emerges from a broader effort undertaken by Iraqis and allies to document the assault on Iraqi scholars\, intellectuals\, and cultural institutions which flared in the wake of the destruction and division wrought by the US-led invasion and occupation. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Sentimental Archive: Remembering Nubia through Salvage Anthropology
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit showcases select photographs from The American University in Cairo’s Rare Books and Special Collections Library taken by the renowned Egyptian photographer Abd al-Fattah Eid as well as by the Cairo-born Swiss artist Margo Veillon.\n\nIn 1964\, the construction of the Aswan High Dam displaced Nubians from their ancestral villages along the banks of the Nile in Egypt. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Digital Engrams
DESCRIPTION:The notion that our brains actually create memories first stored and then revisited has been contemplated since the time of Plato and Aristotle. 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.*

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Holding Places Exhibition by Satchel Lee
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Hours: Mon-Fri\, 9 am-5 pm or by appointment: serrag@med.umich.edu\nBorn and raised in New York City\, Satchel Lee is a multi-media artist whose work can best be described as portraiture. 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).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Illustrating the Renaissance Book: From Illumination to Woodcut
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy a selection of manuscripts and early printed books from the 15th to the 17th centuries that were illustrated with illuminations and woodcuts. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Sarah Buckius: !!!techn010ffspring!!!
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.

DESCRIPTION:The Center for Academic Innovation invites you to an exciting Innovation Insights Research Talk featuring William Bork\, researcher and former K-12 educator in the United States\, Taiwan\, and Mexico. \n\nLarge-scale studies investigating the academic outcomes of immigrant learners\, like the PISA assessment\, can tell us a lot about certain experiences but often only focus on data related to students’ destination countries. In this talk\, Bork details that while destination country data is useful\, incorporating more origin country characteristics could provide a more complete picture of the immigrant student experience and explain variations in academic achievement.\n\nA Zoom link will be provided upon registration. We hope to see you there!\n\n*Innovation Insights*\n\nThe Center for Academic Innovation brings together people who want to transform education\, share knowledge\, and increase learner success by hosting inspiring talks\, collaborative problem-solving workshops\, and discussions on the latest in educational research and practice. The Innovation Insights series features a diverse lineup of topics\, delivered by leaders in academia and private industry\, united by the common goals of delivering insights into how to further academic innovation and build the future of education.\n\n*About William Bork*\n\nWilliam Nicholas Bork Rodriguez is a researcher and former K-12 educator within the USA\, Taiwan\, and Mexico.

You can sign up to receive Kelly's draft and RSVP for lunch here: https://forms.gle/LECbaJrEQJkivQsG8\n\nKelly will present her chapter\, \"Performative Typography and the Threat of Metaphorical Identity in the Poetry of Douglas Kearney.\" Abstract: Metaphors move\, or\, etymologically\, “carry over.” At the level of the poetic line\, the metaphor is the consummate change-maker. Metaphor is always staving off its dismissal as a mere decorative rhetorical figure\, but modern critics and philosophers have affirmed its force. Nietzsche argues that metaphors constitute our notion of “truth”\; Lakoff thinks of metaphor as a mechanism essential to language and conceptualizing the world\; and Sontag concludes it is a force that both intervenes in\, and is shaped by\, societal attitudes. Despite this\, recently metaphor has come under attack by poet Douglas Kearney as a figure that resists\, rather than inducing\, change. In his book of poetics Optic Subwoof (2022)\, Kearney argues the metaphorical relation promises false equivalency\, substituting one form of suffering for another. As such\, metaphors offer the reader a narcissistic reflection rather than a true encounter with difference. This article considers Kearney’s resistance to metaphor in the context of debates about the (im)potency of the aestheticization of suffering (Sontag) and humanistic empathy (Hartman) as engines for social change. It then turns to analyze Kearney’s own poems in light of his stated poetics. Does his visual poetry avoid the metaphor he is so suspicious of? If this poetry isn’t doing metaphor\, what is it doing? And why might his form of visual poetics\, or what Kearney calls “performative typography” be the structure he chooses as his intervention in today’s experimental poetic field?

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Great Lakes Seminar Series: Oday Salim
DESCRIPTION:There is an all too common misconception that environmental justice law is vague and toothless. In fact\, environmental justice law is nearly ubiquitous and has been significantly altering environmental decision-making norms. This talk will address the ways that environmental justice law has already shaped and may in the future shape Great Lakes environmental protection and restoration. Specifically\, the talk will define environmental justice law\, summarize its history\, and go through Great Lakes case studies that illustrate how this legal framework alters decision-making regarding pollution control\, natural resources management\, and energy regulation.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CANCELLED - HEP-Astro Seminar | Belle II: A Flavorful Experiment
DESCRIPTION:The Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB asymmetric-energy electron-positron collider has been collecting the world’s highest-intensity collisions at the Upsilon(4S) since 2019. A data set comparable in size to that of predecessor experiments\, and collected with the new detector\, enables unique or world-leading results. Examples include indirect searches for non-standard-model physics in the weak interactions of quarks\, determinations of fundamental standard-model parameters\, and direct searches for low-mass dark matter. This talk presents a selection of recent results and briefly discusses future perspectives.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RCGD Fall Seminar Series: Psychological Diversity across the Globe (Catherine Thomas)
DESCRIPTION:Culturally Wise Interventions and Their Effects on Psychosocial and Economic Well-Being\n\nPeople are enculturated actors\, shaped by their sociocultural and socioecological contexts. A vast empirical literature has documented that\, in Global North contexts that afford greater choice and material abundance\, selves are more independent–prioritizing personal interests and autonomy in their preferences and behavior. However\, the social psychological literature suffers from glaring gaps in low resource Global South contexts where selves are likely higher in interdependence–prioritizing relationships\, roles and obligations in their preferences and behavior (Thomas & Markus\, 2023). An agenda on ‘culturally wise’ interventions seeks to fill this gap by experimentally comparing different culturally grounded approaches across diverse sociocultural contexts. Building on theoretical principles of wise interventions (Walton & Wilson\, 2018) and culture match (Stephens et al.\, 2012)\, culturally wise interventions are attuned to how culturally specific models of self\, motivation\, and relationality can exert powerful effects on meaning making and behavior. Through experimental evaluations of such intervention approaches in understudied contexts\, this research agenda seeks to advance a more comprehensive account of human behavior as well as strategies for promoting psychosocial and economic well-being around the globe. This talk will focus on how culturally wise approaches in sub-Saharan Africa can be leveraged to mitigate poverty and inequality. \n\nCatherine Thomas of the Research Center for Group Dynamics and the University of Michigan\, co-organizer of the Group Dynamics Fall 2023 Seminar Series with Shinobu Kitayama\, closes the series.\n\nGroup Dynamics Fall 2023 Seminar Series: Psychological Diversity across the Globe\nDo our cultural contexts influence our psychology and behavior — and if so\, how? In this RCGD series\, we delve into the socio-ecological\, histo-cultural\, and economic dynamics shaping the diversity of selfhood and its associated cognitive\, emotional\, and motivational processes. We go beyond the traditional East and West focus to include a wide range of cultural groups. This series will elucidate the implications of psychological diversity across the globe for policies in international relations\, politics\, economics\, business\, immigration\, and other relevant domains.\n\n\nOrganized by Shinobu Kitayama and Catherine Thomas\nAs permissions allow\, seminars from this series are later posted to ISR's YouTube playlist.\n\n\nIn person: ISR Thompson 1430\nThe series runs Mondays from 3:30 to 5.\n\n\nAbout the Group Dynamics Seminar Series\n\nThe Group Dynamics Seminar series is considered one of the longest running seminar series in the social sciences. It has been running uninterruptedly since it was founded by Kurt Lewin in the 1920’s in Berlin. A very important feature of this seminar today is its interdisciplinary nature. Recent seminars have included discussions in “Law and Psychology\,” “Racism and Discrimination\,” “Social Media\,” and “Political Polarization.” The series is offered by the Research Center for Group Dynamics (RCGD)\, at the Institute for Social Research.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Annual Distinguished Lecture on Europe. Mass Flight from and in Ukraine: A Game Changer in International Refugee and Migration History?
DESCRIPTION:The mass flight from and in Ukraine indeed deserves to be labeled as a major \"refugee crisis” for Europe. The talk will take this case as a point of departure\, but then zoom back a century into the aftermath of World War I\, when refugees from Ukraine and Russia were formative for international refugee politics and international law. The lecture will then analyze who was accepted as a refugee over time and who was not\, and why Ukrainian refugees have been received surprisingly positively since the beginning of the second Russian-Ukrainian War.\n\nThe open door policy in Europe since February 2022 is based on the reaction to mass flights from the former Yugoslavia. The history of Croatia and Bosnia from 1991 to 1995 are also important points of reference to understand Ukraine's predicaments in its struggle against Russian neo-imperialism and fascism. Another recurring topic of the lecture will be the dialectic between humanitarian and utilitarian refugee politics and how they might be combined. The countries of origin are usually set aside once the mass flight has occurred and play only a minor role in migration history. This must change in the case of Ukraine\, where the return of refugees and other ways to strengthen human capital should be a major consideration.\n   \nPhilipp Ther is Professor of Central European History at the University of Vienna\, where he also founded the Research Center for the History of Transformations (RECET). Five of his monographs have been published in English: *Europe since 1989: A History* (Princeton UP)\; *The Dark Side of Nation States: Ethnic Cleansing in Modern Europe* (Berghahn Press)\; *Center Stage: Operatic Culture and Nation Building in 19th Century Central Europe* (Purdue UP)\; *The Outsiders: Refugees in Europe since 1492* (Princeton UP)\; and *How the West Lost the Peace. The Great Transformation since 1989* (Polity Press). In 2019 he was awarded the Wittgenstein Prize by the Austrian Research Fund\, the highest recognition for scientists in Austria.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at weisercenter@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RNA Innovation Seminar: Andy Berglund\, University at Albany
DESCRIPTION:HYBRID SEMINAR:\nIn-person: BSRB\, ABC Seminar Rooms\nZoom: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_qbOGve5KT7mUErr2Pg0Aow\n\nAbstract: Repeat or microsatellite expansions are responsible for more than 50 human diseases. Myotonic dystrophy (DM)\, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)\, and spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs) are a few examples of repeat expansion diseases.  RNA processing (pre-mRNA splicing) pathways are negatively impacted in these diseases with specific changes in pre-mRNA splicing proposed to lead to symptoms observed in affected individuals. Many of the projects in the lab combine biochemical\, molecular\, and genomic approaches with cellular and other model systems to understand the mechanisms through which these diseases alter pre-mRNA splicing. Through screening approaches\, small molecules have been identified that reduce the levels of the repeat expansion RNAs and rescue mis-splicing in DM and SCA  cell and animal models.\n\nKeywords: Myotonic Dystrophy\, Spinocerebellar Ataxias\, Alternative Splicing and RNA Binding Proteins

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:STS Speaker Series. A History of 'Impairment'
DESCRIPTION:“Impairment” is a key term in Anglophone disability studies and medical discourse\, referring to physical difference\, limitation\, or injury. When disability scholars and activists critique the definition of impairment\, they generally place the concept in the genealogy of medicalization and inappropriate pathologization. Yet as this talk will show\, the history of impairment is as bureaucratic and actuarial as it is medical. \n\nPopularized by the American life insurance industry in the early twentieth century\, \"impairment\" indicates rating as well as diagnosis—the attachment of value\, risk\, or financial loss to particular traits. Specifically\, impairment emerged as a form of information for corporate surveillance when life insurance companies joined with the Library Bureau in the 1890s to pool data on “impaired risks” among applicants. \n\nThis talk is drawn from a forthcoming article by Mara Mills and Dan Bouk\, written after years of speculation among the authors that our areas of expertise—the history of disability and technology (Mills) and the history of life insurance (Bouk)—have more than a passing affinity.\n\nBio: Mara Mills is Associate Professor of Media\, Culture\, and Communication at New York University and founding co-director of the NYU Center for Disability Studies. She is also a founding editorial board member of Catalyst: Feminism\, Theory\, Technoscience. She is recently co-editor of Testing Hearing: The Making of Modern Aurality (Oxford 2020)\, Crip Authorship: Disability as Method (NYU 2023)\, and a forthcoming special issue of Osiris on \"Disability and the History of Science\" (2024). Upcoming publications include the NSF-funded edited collection How to be Disabled in a Pandemic (NYU Press)\, a coauthored book with Jonathan Sterne on time stretching\, and an NEH-funded collaborative research project with Michele Friedner on \"The Global Cochlear Implant.\"\n\nCo-sponsors: Departments of American Culture\; Communication and Media\, Center for Ethics\, Society and Computing\; UM Initiative in Disability Studies

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Combinatorics: Heronian friezes
DESCRIPTION:In 2020 Sergey Fomin and Linus Setiabrata introduced an algebraic object called a Heronian frieze that is an analogue of the frieze patterns introduced and studied by Coxeter and Conway in the 1970s inspired by the Euclidean geometry of polygon triangulation.  This survey talk will start with frieze patterns\, discuss classical results about integrality\, and draw connections to cluster algebra theory.  We will build up to Heronian friezes\, including a discussion of the necessary geometric ingredients. We will end with an advertisement for current work on the case in which the polygon lies on a sphere.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Microlocal sheaves and affine Springer fibers
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: The resolutions of Slodowy slices \tilde S_e are symplectic varieties that contain the Springer fiber (G/B)_e as a Lagrangian subvariety. In joint work with R. Bezrukavnikov\, M. McBreen and Z. Yun\, we construct analogues of these spaces for homogeneous affine Springer fibers. We further understand the categories of microlocal sheaves in these symplectic spaces supported on the affine Springer fiber as some categories of coherent sheaves.\n\nIn this talk I will mostly focus on the case of the homogeneous element ts for s a regular semisimple element and will discuss some relations of these categories with the small quantum group providing a categorification of joint work with R.Bezrukavnikov\, P. Shan and E. Vasserot.\n\nI will then mention some recent application of this result to the Breuil-Mezard conjecture by T. Feng and B. Le Hung.

SUMMARY:Performance:Nefesh Mountain
DESCRIPTION:Jewish Spirit and Appalachian traditions meet on common ground\n \nYes\, Nefesh Mountain is a bluegrass band. Yes\, some of their lyrics are sung in Hebrew. No\, it isn’t a gimmick or a parody. And\, no\, it’s not klezmer music. Now that we’ve got that straight\, let’s hear Nefesh Mountain for what it really is: a soulful\, euphoric\, folk-flavored outpouring of hope and joy\, propelled by the kind of crisp\, crystalline picking that gives lyrics wings. It’s a distinctively Nefesh Mountain sound. Doni Zasloff and Eric Lindberg have attracted high-powered musicians on their recordings\, including Sam Bush\, Jerry Douglas\, Tony Trischka\, and David Grier\, aided by Nefesh Mountain’s touring band members\, Alan Grubner on fiddle and Tim Kiah on bass.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CCPS Exhibition. Modernist Glass from the Polish Past
DESCRIPTION:The glass in this rare collection represents the work of renowned Polish glass artists and designers created between 1960 and 1980. Known as Polskie szkło artystyczne (Polish art glass)\, the works were produced in glass factories in southern Poland and are a feature of many homes throughout Central Europe. The glass masters were trained in schools of art and design and many achieved international fame during their lifetimes. \n\nThe collectors\, Endi Poskovic and his wife Julie Anne Visco\, began acquiring the glass in 2015-16 while Endi was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. Scouring flea markets\, antique shops\, and websites\, they continue to acquire pieces and build the collection to this day. We are grateful to them for making this remarkable exhibit possible at CCPS and WCEE.\n\nOrganized by the Copernicus Center for Polish Studies\, this exhibition is co-sponsored by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design and Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia.\n\nLearn more about the exhibition and the artists at https://myumi.ch/8eVrM\n\nThe exhibit opens on September 15\, 2023 in 1010 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manga no Ryokou: The “Manga Map” and A Journey Through the Art of Depiction in Japanese Cartography
DESCRIPTION:The exhibit examines the intersection between art\, narrative\, and geography within Japanese cartography. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Shadow and Light : Solidarity and Connection with Iraqi Academics
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit incorporates a selection of work from the Shadow and Light project\, an initiative memorializing Iraqi academics assassinated between 2003-2013\, a timeframe which roughly parallels the US-led invasion and occupation of Iraq. \n\nParticipants from around the world — including Iraqis in diaspora — contributed photographs and personal statements responding to the loss of a particular Iraqi academic listed by the Spanish Campaign against the Occupation and for the Sovereignty of Iraq (La Campaña Estatal contra la Ocupación y por la Soberanía de Iraq / IraqSolidaridad 2005-2013). \n\nThe project emerges from a broader effort undertaken by Iraqis and allies to document the assault on Iraqi scholars\, intellectuals\, and cultural institutions which flared in the wake of the destruction and division wrought by the US-led invasion and occupation. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Sentimental Archive: Remembering Nubia through Salvage Anthropology
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit showcases select photographs from The American University in Cairo’s Rare Books and Special Collections Library taken by the renowned Egyptian photographer Abd al-Fattah Eid as well as by the Cairo-born Swiss artist Margo Veillon.\n\nIn 1964\, the construction of the Aswan High Dam displaced Nubians from their ancestral villages along the banks of the Nile in Egypt. 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.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Arabic Placement test_December 5\, 2024 (9:00am-11:30am)
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the Arabic Placement TestAbout the testThe test is approximately two hours and a half in length\, and it is composed of three portions:a. 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.\nWhere can I view my results?Placement results are posted within 7 business days after the test.You will not be notified of your score automatically. You may view your placements via: Wolverine Access > Student Business > Academic Records > View Placement Exam Results.Important information about the test* Placements are valid for only one year. If you fail to register in the course that you are placed in\, you will be required to retake the test.* Retaking the placement test is only permitted after the placement results expire.* The test assesses students’ proficiency in Modern Standard Arabic (MSA)\, NOT colloquial Arabic.  * If you speak an Arabic dialect but you do not know how to read or write or have little knowledge\, feel free to register in Arabic 101.* Students who know some Arabic because they came from an Arabic-speaking household or have studied Arabic before\, must take the Arabic proficiency test in order to determine their placement.* Students who have taken Arabic at other institutions and wish to continue their Arabic study at UM must take the placement test to determine their level. Credits for Arabic study undertaken at another institution prior to joining UM or in a summer program while attending UM\, transfer in as generic departmental credits and students must take the placement test to determine credit equivalencies to UM courses.* If you place in or beyond the 401 level\, you will have satisfied the LSA language requirement. * Students are encouraged to take a placement test as early as possible in their studies in order to determine the level they should enroll in\, or if they test out of the language requirement. This is extremely important to avoid delays in graduation and complications with placement.* Arabic 101\, 201\, 401\, 501 are offered ONLY in the Fall semester\, and Arabic 102\, 202\, 402\, 504 are ONLY offered in the Winter semester.* Students can take intensive Arabic 103 (the equivalent of Arabic 101 &102\, combined)\, and Arabic 203 (the equivalent of Arabic 201 & 202\, combined) in the Spring/Summer terms.If you have questions regarding the placement test\, please contact the program director at\, mesarabicprogram@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Digital Engrams
DESCRIPTION:The notion that our brains actually create memories first stored and then revisited has been contemplated since the time of Plato and Aristotle. 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.*

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Holding Places Exhibition by Satchel Lee
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Hours: Mon-Fri\, 9 am-5 pm or by appointment: serrag@med.umich.edu\nBorn and raised in New York City\, Satchel Lee is a multi-media artist whose work can best be described as portraiture. 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).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Illustrating the Renaissance Book: From Illumination to Woodcut
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy a selection of manuscripts and early printed books from the 15th to the 17th centuries that were illustrated with illuminations and woodcuts. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Sarah Buckius: !!!techn010ffspring!!!
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.

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

DESCRIPTION:Stop by the Collections Case display in the museum’s main atrium\, behind the mastodons\, to see Nature’s Pharmacy.\n\nAugust 2023–July 2024\n\nPlants and fungi play a vital role in medicine due to the diversity of chemical defense mechanisms they evolved to safeguard them against pathogens\, herbivores\, and competitors. From its inception\, the U-M Herbarium has cataloged and described plants—both poisonous and beneficial to human health—and still serves that role today. See specimens of these plant and fungal “friends” and “foes” from the U-M Herbarium collection and learn about how the collection is used for drug discovery today.

DESCRIPTION:Stop by the Student Showcase display in the museum’s main atrium\, behind the mastodons\, to see Molecules of Life.\n\nAugust 2023–July 2024\n\nMolecules of Life (Student Showcase)\nDiscover the connection between form and function as you explore the molecular building blocks of life. In the realm of biological macromolecules such as proteins and nucleic acids\, form determines function\, so visualizing the three-dimensional structures of molecules is key in researching the ‘tiny’ macromolecules that perform vital functions in our cells. In Biophysics 421\, under the guidance of Markos Koutmos\, Assistant Professor of Biophysics & Chemistry\, and Liz Tidwell\, PhD candidate in Biophysics\, students created models with digital modeling software and brought them to life via 3D printing. This exhibit showcases the 3D printed molecules\, scaled up to better reveal the structures that inform\, make\, break\, modify\, and move within the body.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | The Role of Assortative Mating in Marital Infidelity: Insights from China
DESCRIPTION:Attend in person or via Zoom. Zoom registration at https://myumi.ch/73Db9.\n\nExisting studies on assortative mating in China have primarily focused on its determinants as well as consequences regarding marital stability and quality. However\, little is known about its effect on marital infidelity. Are those with similar characteristics more likely to remain faithful in the marriage? Are those who bring “more” to the marriage more prone to infidelity because they have the upper hand? Or\, are those who are more dependent on the marriage more likely to engage in infidelity as a compensatory act? Using newly available data from the Chinese Private Life Survey\, we examine the association between marital infidelity and patterns of assortative mating in the context of China\, where educational homogamy becomes the norm but income hypergamy still prevails (men out-earning women). Our findings show a complex interplay of resources\, status\, and dependency in a highly gendered environment. We find that marriages in which the wife is more educated than the husband exhibit a higher likelihood of experiencing extramarital affairs than those marriages in which the husband and wife have similar education levels. Contrary to our expectation\, marriages in which the husband out-earns the wife are more likely to remain faithful than marriages where incomes are equal. Results also show that there are some trade-offs between education and income. For example\, among all types of educational and income pairings of the spouses\, marriages in which the wife is more educated but makes less money than the husband are the most likely to experience extramarital affairs. It is worth noting that the observed patterns are mainly driven by the subsample of men\, who on average are 1.7 times more likely to be unfaithful than women. Our study demonstrates the limited utility of classic perspectives on marital exchange and underscores the evolving and asymmetric nature of gender power dynamics in marriages in a society with a longstanding patriarchal tradition juxtaposed with changing gender relations.\n   \n   Feinian Chen is a Professor of Sociology at Johns Hopkins University and Director for the Hopkins Population Center. She received her PhD in Sociology from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2001 and was trained in social demography at the Carolina Population Center.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RTG Number Theory: Pseudo-varieties of profinite graphs and spanning trees
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: We consider pro-C graphs for certain categories of finite graphs. After exploring some general theory\, we specalize to a particular pseudo-variety denoted by ε that arises naturally in constructing end point compactifications of connected abstract graphs. We show that any connected secondcountable pro-ε graph has a profinite analogue of spanning tree as in connected abstract graphs. The structure of pro-ε graphs and their fundamental profinite groups are shown to be analogous in certain ways to that of abstract graphs and their fundamental groups.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:PhD Research Talk: Yaohui Guo
DESCRIPTION:Seminar Abstract:\nTrust has been identified as a critical factor for effective human-robot teaming. However\, existing literature on trust modeling predominantly focuses on dyadic human-robot teams\, and there is little\, if not no\, research on trust modeling in multi-human-multi-robot (MHMR) teams. To fill this research gap\, we propose the Trust Inference and Propagation (TIP) model\, a mathematical framework for computational trust modeling in MHMR teams. The TIP model accounts for both the direct and indirect experiences that a human agent has with a robot\, successfully capturing the underlying trust dynamics and significantly outperforming a baseline model. In addition\, to foster trust in MHMR teams\, we develop an online learning algorithm for real-time\, optimal team formation in dynamic\, collaborative environments. Specifically\, we model the teaming problem as a matching linear bandit and show the proposed algorithm achieves sublinear regret\, which offers a promising avenue for real-time\, optimal team formation that goes beyond static or pre-planned strategies.\n\n\nPresenter Bio:\nYaohui Guo is a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Industrial and Operations Engineering at the University of Michigan. His research focuses on human-robot/AI collaboration\, specifically in developing algorithms that enhance robots' interaction abilities by accurately interpreting human internal states. He has received Master's degrees in Robotics and Mathematics from the University of Michigan\, and a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering and Automation from Xi’an Jiaotong University. His research is supported by the Rackham Predoctoral Fellowship.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Chemical Biology Approaches to Dissect Microbial Pathogenesis
DESCRIPTION:This talk gives an overview of the current projects in the Lupoli group\, which seek to answer questions that fall under two main categories related to microbial pathogenesis: (1) regulation of bacterial chaperones\; (2) assembly of bacterial surface glycans.  The initial project focuses on the “skin”\, or surface\, of bacteria called the cell envelope\, which mediates infection of the host and protects bacteria from host immune defense tactics.  While Gram-negative bacteria contain a protective outer membrane layer absent in most Gram-positives\, almost all bacteria contain polymers composed of unique monosaccharides that extend from the cell surface.  Gram-negative bacteria typically contain lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in the outer leaflet of the outer membrane with attached polysaccharides called O-antigens that help mediate interactions with the environment.  O-antigens are composed of repeating oligosaccharides that define particular bacterial serotypes\, which distinguishes bacterial strains within a single species. Foundational chemical biology work has contributed to our understanding of eukaryotic cell surface composition.  However\, we still lack a clear understanding of assembly of bacterial surface glycan polymers that contain prokaryote-specific or “rare” sugars.  In this talk\, we describe synthetic and chemoenzymatic methods to construct rare nucleotide sugars to study substrate recognition by bacterial glycosyltransferases that build O-antigens.  We identify key regions in sugar substrates that are required for substrate binding and activity\, and we use this knowledge to design chemical probes that will be used for the construction of synthetic O-antigens and small molecule inhibitors that will stall O-antigen synthesis.  This work will expand our understanding of cellular mechanisms underlying bacterial polysaccharide synthesis\, and will teach us about the roles that rare sugars play in bacterial cellular interactions.\n\nThe latter project focuses on DnaK\, the bacterial homolog of Hsp70\, an ATP-dependent chaperone that functions in concert with cofactor proteins to catalyze nascent protein folding and salvage misfolded proteins.  In the pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis\, the causative agent of tuberculosis (TB)\, DnaK and its cofactor proteins DnaJ1\, DnaJ2 and GrpE are proposed drug targets.  Despite the importance of chaperone function in human cancers and infectious disease\, there are limited chemical probes or inhibitors that enable in vivo studies on the function of individual chaperones/cofactors.  In this talk\, we describe the discovery of small molecule inhibitors of mycobacterial DnaK\, most notably a peptidomimetic called telaprevir\, which is able to inhibit chaperone function through interactions with the peptide-binding cleft of DnaK.  Binding of telaprevir leads to allosteric conformational changes that prevent ATP hydrolysis in a distal domain.  We find that telaprevir also inhibits E. coli DnaK and human Hsc70 chaperones due to high conservation of Hsp70 sequences.  Using in vitro and in vivo chaperone assays\, we demonstrate that telaprevir modulates the function of mycobacterial DnaK and its cofactor protein DnaJ2 in cells\, which disrupts cellular proteostasis.  Co-treatment of mycobacteria with telaprevir and aminoglycosides\, which further stress the proteome\, enhances the potency of these antibiotics. In addition\, telaprevir combats mycobacterial resistance to the frontline TB drug rifampin\, as DnaK-DnaJ2 function is required for stabilization of protein mutants that confer drug tolerance.  This work sets the stage for our current work on the design of peptide-based inhibitors with higher selectivity for bacterial chaperones to probe chaperone-protein interactions and explore resulting synergy with different classes of antibiotics.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Colloquium Seminar: Diffusion-based probabilistic flows and low distortion mappings
DESCRIPTION:A central question in the field of optimal transport studies optimization problems involving two measures on a common metric space\, a source and a target. The goal is to find a mapping from the source to the target\, in a way that minimizes distances. A remarkable fact discovered by Caffarelli is that\, in some specific cases of interest\, the optimal transport maps on a Euclidean metric space are Lipschitz. Lipschitz regularity is a desirable property because it allows for the transfer of analytic properties between measures. This perspective has proven to be widely influential\, with applications extending beyond the field of optimal transport.\n\nIn this talk\, we will further explore transport maps with low distortion. The key point which we shall highlight is that\, for low distortion mappings\, the optimality conditions mentioned above do not play a major role. Instead of minimizing distances\, we will consider a general construction of transport maps based on probabilistic flows\, and introduce a set of techniques to analyze their distortion. In particular\, we will go beyond the Euclidean setting and consider Riemannian manifolds as well as infinite-dimensional spaces.\n\nWe shall also discuss the emerging and intimate connections between our construction and recent advances in algorithms for generative modeling.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:DAAS Africa Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join the Department of Afroamerican and African Studies\nand the African Studies Center for our next\n\nAFRICA WORKSHOP\n\"Petronoir African Cinema: Reading Recent African Films for Energy\"\n\nCarmela Garritano\nAssociate Professor of International Affairs\, Texas A&M University\n\nTUESDAY\, DEC. 5\n4:00 PM\n4701 Haven Hall (DAAS Conference Room)\n\nCan't make it? Join us on Zoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/99340604276\n\n--------\nThis talk suggests the term “petronoir” to describe prestige and art films from Africa that re-tool the narrative and formal conventions of film noir to denounce the endlessly deferred promises of oil-based national development and infrastructural modernity. The films analyzed in this presentation detail patchwork\, failed\, or underdeveloped petroleum infrastructures across several African cities and closely examine the novel forms of labor and sociality that emerge in response to energy shortage. These films project infrastructural longing and\, at the same time\, testify to the creativity of Africans living with under-resourced energy distribution networks. \n\nIn these ways\, petronoir African cinema intervenes in the dominant discourse of climate crisis and energy transition. It reminds us that our efforts to address global warming and break free from fossil fuels must grapple with the modest and justified energy demands of those on the margins of petromodernity.\n\nABOUT THE SPEAKER\n\nDr. Garritano works at the intersection of politics and film and media\, and her research has been supported by Fulbright IIE\, the West African Research Association\, and the US Department of Education’s FLAS program. Trained in African area studies\, her writing combines theoretically-grounded inquiry with ethnographic and archival research methods. Her first book\, \"African Video Movies and Global Desires: A Ghanaian History\" (Ohio University Press\, 2013)\, is a historical account of movie production in Ghana\, beginning with the first films of the Gold Coast Colonial Film Unit\, through the struggles of the Ghana Film Industry Corporation\, and finally to the emergence and growth of a loosely-configured\, commercial movie industry between the late 1980s and 2010. The book was selected as a Choice Outstanding Academic Title and was awarded The First Book Award by the African Literature Association. \n\nAdditionally\, she is co-editor\, with Kenneth W. Harrow\, of \"A Companion to African Cinema\" (Wiley-Blackwell\, 2019)\, a volume that brings together some of the most exciting writing on African film and media today. It spotlights research that draws from well-established methods\, such as postcolonial theory\, as well as new work informed by affect theory\, film festival studies\, and sound studies. \n\nDr. Garritano has also published writing on African literature\, postcolonialism\, and Nollywood. Her work has appeared in top-tier journals such as The Journal of Cinema and Media Studies\, Modern Fiction Studies\, Black Camera\, The Cambridge Journal of Postcolonial Literary Inquiry\, African Studies Review\, and Research in African Literatures.\n\n--------\nFor questions about the event or to request accommodations\, please email ecnirp@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Seminar Seminar Series: Linbo Wang\, Assistant Professor\, Department of Statistical Sciences\, University of Toronto.
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: There has been a recent surge in attention towards trustworthy AI\, especially as it starts playing a pivotal role in high-stakes domains such as healthcare\, the justice system\, and finance. Causal inference emerges as a promising path toward building AI systems that are stable\, fair\, and explainable. However\, it often hinges on precise and strong assumptions. In this talk\, I introduce sparse causal learning as a common ground between trustworthy AI and robust causal inference. Here\, sparsity plays a dual role in enhancing explainability and ensuring the robust identification of causal effects. Specifically\, I reconsider the supervised learning problem of predicting an outcome using multiple predictors through the lens of causality. I demonstrate that it is possible to remove spurious correlations caused by unmeasured confounding by leveraging low-dimensional structures in the predictors. I study its identifiability using an expert voting approach and show that sparsity provides a promising path to transforming exact causal inference methods into multiply robust identification frameworks. Furthermore\, I introduce the synthetic instrument\, a novel tool for constructing instrumental variables and estimating causal effects. This new approach leads to algorithms that are theoretically justifiable\, computationally feasible\, and statistically sound.\n\nhttps://sites.google.com/site/linbowangpku/

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Nam Center Colloquium Series |  ‘War Is the Force That Gives Us Meaning’: Militarized Queerness\, Racial Masking\, and the Korean War Mascot
DESCRIPTION:Please note: This session is planned to be held both in-person and virtually EST through Zoom. This webinar is free and open to the public\, but registration is required. Once you've registered\, the joining information will be sent to your email.\n   \n   Register at: http://myumi.ch/dkz61\n   \n   Revisionist attempts to recuperate the Korean War as a pioneering civil rights advance have left to the side the U.S. war machine’s flexible incorporation of Korean “orphans” and other forms of nonnormative life\, even though such examples of GI “humanitarianism” were widely propagated in their moment. Although presented as objects of rescue\, mascots were mobilized in dangerous roles that marked their militarized collusion and recalled their original status as permissible targets of war violence. Although propagated as proof of the U.S. military’s colorblind humanitarianism\, the Korean War mascot\, as indigenous life made over as potential adoptee\, thus demands theorization as an object of colonial conquest. As a war remnant\, a singularity whose obverse was the mass casualty\, the Korean mascot hovered in a gray zone between friend and enemy as a form of queer life.\n   \n   Christine Hong is Professor of Critical Race and Ethnic Studies (CRES) and Literature. She directs the Center for Racial Justice at UC Santa Cruz\, serves on the board of directors of the Korea Policy Institute\, an independent research and educational institute\, co-chairs the UC Ethnic Studies Faculty Council\, and co-edits the Critical Ethnic Studies journal. Her book\, A Violent Peace: Race\, Militarism\, and Cultures of Democratization in Cold War Asia and the Pacific\, was published by Stanford University Press in 2020. Along with Deann Borshay Liem\, she co-directed the Legacies of the Korean War oral history project. She also co-edited a two-volume thematic issue of Critical Asian Studies on Reframing North Korean Human Rights (2013-14)\; a special issue of positions: asia critique on The Unending Korean War (2015)\; and a forum of The Abusable Past on “White Terror\, ‘Red’ Island: A People’s Archive of the Jeju 4.3 Uprising and Massacre.”\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Professors Gordon Belot\, James M. Joyce\, and Laura Ruetsche's Collegiate Professorship in Philosophy\, Inaugural Lecture
DESCRIPTION:This event will take place both in person and virtually. Additional details regarding each lecture can be found below.\n\nProfessor Gordon Belot\, the Lawrence Sklar Collegiate Professor of Philosophy\n\nLecture Title: On the Road to Truth\n\nAbstract: This talk will explore some questions raised by Larry Sklar in Theory and Truth. What does it mean to be a realist about our scientific theories in our present predicament\, in which we are virtually certain that the best theories of physics cannot be true\, strictly speaking\, because they break down or make false predictions in certain regimes? Sklar suggests that to be a realist in this setting is to be confident that our best current theories are in some sense stations on the road to truth—but what precisely does that mean? \n\nProfessor James M. Joyce\, the Cooper Harold Langford Collegiate Professor of Philosophy\n\nLecture Title: Decision Making and the Accuracy of Beliefs\n\nLecture Abstract: Epistemologists have long focused on belief as the basic epistemic attitude\, with the understanding that a belief is fully successful only if true. In the 20th Century\, however\, some philosophers began to see degrees of confidence\, or credences\, as more fundamental\, largely because of their ties to rational action. The philosopher Frank Ramsey and statistician Bruno de Finetti famously argued that (i) a rational person's credences will be revealed in her betting behavior\, and (ii) that a person whose credences do not obey the laws of probability will accept \"books\" of bets that\, in the aggregate\, lose money no matter what the world is like. These \"pragmatic\" (action centered) arguments were used to justify probabilism\, the idea that rational credences must be subjective probabilities. But\, many epistemologists were dissatisfied with this pragmatic approach since it did not ultimately relate the quality of credences to their accuracy or \"closeness to the truth\". As a response to these complaints\, I sought to define a meaningful sense of accuracy for credences\, and to show that probabilism could be seen as a means to pursuing credal accuracy. I knew de Finetti had offered an argument that could be adapted for this purpose\, but it had limited applicability and was still pragmatic in spirit. While searching for something more general\, and more clearly epistemic\, I was attending the UM Decision Consortium\, run by Frank Yates of the Psychology Department. One day Frank pointed me to his wonderful book Judgment and Decision Making\, which introduced me to the use of strictly proper scoring rules to measure the accuracy of probabilistic forecasts. This turned out to be exactly what I needed! In two related papers\, I argued that any reasonable score of credal accuracy should be a strictly proper scoring rule\, and that for a wide range of such rules probabilism follows in this sense: for any system of credences that violates the laws of probability there is a system of credences that satisfies those laws and is more accurate in every possible state of the world. \n\nProfessor Laura Ruetsche\, the Louis E. Loeb Collegiate Professor of Philosophy\n\nLecture Title: \"The Physics of Ignorance: Believe It or Not?\"\n\nLecture Abstract: Should we believe our very best theories of physics? Scientific realists urge that we should: the best way to make sense of a theory's remarkable success\, they argue\, is to suppose that the world is (more or less) the way that theory says it is.  Most physicists regard our very best theories of physics\, including those making up the Standard Model of contemporary particle physics\, to be effective theories. Not itself fundamentally or universally valid\, an effective theory is rather\, within an avowedly limited domain\, an able mimic of more fundamental theories.  But what do we believe\, when we believe an able mimic? And is that something we should believe? I'll critically consider a resourceful realist answer to these questions. I'll also defend an alternative that becomes available once we liberate ourselves from a constrictive presupposition: that to understand a theory\, we must articulate the way that theory says the world is.\n\nIf you are unable to join us in person\, please click the link below to join the webinar:\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/94991398665\nOr One tap mobile :\n    +13126266799\,\,94991398665# US (Chicago)\n    +16468769923\,\,94991398665# US (New York)\nOr Telephone:\n    Dial(for higher quality\, dial a number based on your current location):\n    +1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n    +1 646 876 9923 US (New York)\n    +1 646 931 3860 US\n    +1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n    +1 305 224 1968 US\n    +1 309 205 3325 US\n    +1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)\n    +1 360 209 5623 US\n    +1 386 347 5053 US\n    +1 507 473 4847 US\n    +1 564 217 2000 US\n    +1 669 444 9171 US\n    +1 669 900 6833 US (San Jose)\n    +1 689 278 1000 US\n    +1 719 359 4580 US\n    +1 253 205 0468 US\n    +1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)\n    +1 778 907 2071 Canada\n    +1 780 666 0144 Canada\n    +1 204 272 7920 Canada\n    +1 438 809 7799 Canada\n    +1 587 328 1099 Canada\n    +1 647 374 4685 Canada\n    +1 647 558 0588 Canada\nWebinar ID: 949 9139 8665\n    International numbers available: https://umich.zoom.us/u/acyk7LEIws\n\nOr an H.323/SIP room system:\n    H.323: \n    162.255.37.11 (US West)\n    162.255.36.11 (US East)\n    115.114.131.7 (India Mumbai)\n    115.114.115.7 (India Hyderabad)\n    213.19.144.110 (Amsterdam Netherlands)\n    213.244.140.110 (Germany)\n    103.122.166.55 (Australia Sydney)\n    103.122.167.55 (Australia Melbourne)\n    149.137.40.110 (Singapore)\n    64.211.144.160 (Brazil)\n    149.137.68.253 (Mexico)\n    69.174.57.160 (Canada Toronto)\n    65.39.152.160 (Canada Vancouver)\n    207.226.132.110 (Japan Tokyo)\n    149.137.24.110 (Japan Osaka)\n    Meeting ID: 949 9139 8665\n    SIP: 94991398665@zoomcrc.com

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Writer to Writer with Public School Poetry
DESCRIPTION:Writer to Writer offers rare glimpse into the writing that professors do outside the classroom and how they handle the same challenges student writers face. Hosted by Shelley Manis from U-M LSA’s Sweetland Center for Writing.\n\nThis December\, we welcome Public School Poetry with Ellen Stone\, Scott Beal\, David Ward\, and Julie Babcock!\n\nPublic School Poetry was created by a group of poets educated through the public school system. We hope this online journal embodies the strangeness of public school and our colliding desires to learn\, break rules\, see what others are doing\, and create new and better spaces. Despite the name\, we are not a student-specific publication\; our contributors come from all backgrounds and life stages. \n\nThis journal is a leap of faith and an ongoing experiment. Each contributor writes “a five-paragraph essay” on another contributor’s poems that we randomly and anonymously assign. Poems and essays appear together in each issue.\n\nhttps://www.publicschoolpoetry.com/\n\nEllen Stone comes from a family of public-school teachers in Pennsylvania and spent her career teaching public school before retiring after 20+ years at Community High School in Ann Arbor.\n\nScott Beal is a product of public schools in Oklahoma\, Tennessee\, Ohio\, and Michigan\, and currently directs the Lloyd Scholars for Writing and the Arts program at the University of Michigan.\n\nDavid Ward has been a public school student at Sedona Red Rock High School\, Arizona State University\, and the University of Michigan\, where he now teaches writing. \n\nJulie Babcock is a poet and a fiction writer who sprang from public school systems in Ohio\, Indiana\, Illinois\, and now teaches at University of Michigan.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Pre-Concert Lecture: University Symphony Orchestra
DESCRIPTION:This lecture begins at 7:15pm before the 8:00 pm USO performance\, featuring music by Hansol Choi (*Samdo*\, world premiere)\, Jonathan Leshnoff (*Concerto for Two Percussionists*) and Shostakovich (Symphony No. 5).\n\nKenneth Kiesler\, conductor\nYeo Ryeong Ahn\, conductor\nIan Antonio and Douglas Perkins\, percussion\n\nIn its final concert of 2023\, the University Symphony Orchestra (USO) performs one of the greatest and most often performed symphonies of the 20th Century\, a new piece by a composer-percussionist and a recent work for two percussion soloists.\n\nThe concert opens with the world premiere of *Samdo*\, by Hansol Choi. A reinterpretation of intense traditional Korean music for orchestra\, this colorful and exciting piece utilizes traditional Korean percussion quartet music\, Samulnori\, and combines various traditional Korean rhythmic patterns with shamanistic music and popular Korean folk songs. *Samdo* will be conducted by Yeo Ryeong Ahn\, native of Seoul\, Korea\, and orchestral conducting student in her final year as a doctoral student in orchestral conducting. \n\nRenowned percussionists and SMTD faculty members Ian Antonio and Douglas Perkins are featured in the highly charged and virtuosic *Concerto for Two Percussionists* by Jonathan Leshnoff\, followed by the Fifth Symphony by Shostakovich.\n\nFor most of his life\, Shostakovich tried to stay in the good graces of the government while being true to himself and his art. In 1934\, after Stalin went to see Shostakovich’s new opera *Lady Macbeth of Mtensk*\, Pravda published an article\, possibly written by Stalin himself\, which condemned the composer and his new opera\, calling it “chaos instead of music.”  Shostakovich aimed to redeem (protect) himself with his new symphony\, which he described as “A Soviet Artist's Response to Just Criticism.” At its premiere\, which received an ovation lasting more than 30 minutes\, he managed to please the government while sending the masses a very different message of resistance and forced optimism.  Its epic quality and combination of brass fanfares\, soulful songs\, folk music\, militaristic marches\, and sounds of the Russian Orthodox Church\, has made it one of the most popular pieces in the repertoire of symphony orchestras worldwide.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CCPS Exhibition. Modernist Glass from the Polish Past
DESCRIPTION:The glass in this rare collection represents the work of renowned Polish glass artists and designers created between 1960 and 1980. Known as Polskie szkło artystyczne (Polish art glass)\, the works were produced in glass factories in southern Poland and are a feature of many homes throughout Central Europe. The glass masters were trained in schools of art and design and many achieved international fame during their lifetimes. \n\nThe collectors\, Endi Poskovic and his wife Julie Anne Visco\, began acquiring the glass in 2015-16 while Endi was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. Scouring flea markets\, antique shops\, and websites\, they continue to acquire pieces and build the collection to this day. We are grateful to them for making this remarkable exhibit possible at CCPS and WCEE.\n\nOrganized by the Copernicus Center for Polish Studies\, this exhibition is co-sponsored by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design and Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia.\n\nLearn more about the exhibition and the artists at https://myumi.ch/8eVrM\n\nThe exhibit opens on September 15\, 2023 in 1010 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manga no Ryokou: The “Manga Map” and A Journey Through the Art of Depiction in Japanese Cartography
DESCRIPTION:The exhibit examines the intersection between art\, narrative\, and geography within Japanese cartography. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Shadow and Light : Solidarity and Connection with Iraqi Academics
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit incorporates a selection of work from the Shadow and Light project\, an initiative memorializing Iraqi academics assassinated between 2003-2013\, a timeframe which roughly parallels the US-led invasion and occupation of Iraq. \n\nParticipants from around the world — including Iraqis in diaspora — contributed photographs and personal statements responding to the loss of a particular Iraqi academic listed by the Spanish Campaign against the Occupation and for the Sovereignty of Iraq (La Campaña Estatal contra la Ocupación y por la Soberanía de Iraq / IraqSolidaridad 2005-2013). \n\nThe project emerges from a broader effort undertaken by Iraqis and allies to document the assault on Iraqi scholars\, intellectuals\, and cultural institutions which flared in the wake of the destruction and division wrought by the US-led invasion and occupation. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Sentimental Archive: Remembering Nubia through Salvage Anthropology
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit showcases select photographs from The American University in Cairo’s Rare Books and Special Collections Library taken by the renowned Egyptian photographer Abd al-Fattah Eid as well as by the Cairo-born Swiss artist Margo Veillon.\n\nIn 1964\, the construction of the Aswan High Dam displaced Nubians from their ancestral villages along the banks of the Nile in Egypt. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Digital Engrams
DESCRIPTION:The notion that our brains actually create memories first stored and then revisited has been contemplated since the time of Plato and Aristotle. 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.*

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Holding Places Exhibition by Satchel Lee
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Hours: Mon-Fri\, 9 am-5 pm or by appointment: serrag@med.umich.edu\nBorn and raised in New York City\, Satchel Lee is a multi-media artist whose work can best be described as portraiture. 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).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Illustrating the Renaissance Book: From Illumination to Woodcut
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy a selection of manuscripts and early printed books from the 15th to the 17th centuries that were illustrated with illuminations and woodcuts. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Sarah Buckius: !!!techn010ffspring!!!
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.

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

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Brown Bag Seminar | Searching for High Frequency Gravitational Waves with Phonons
DESCRIPTION:With the direct detection of gravitational waves (GWs) from LIGO in 2016\, and recent evidence from the NANOGrav collaboration for a stochastic GW background\, GW astronomy is becoming an important tool for understanding the universe. Recently it has been shown that axion dark matter (DM) experiments can extend the search for GWs to much higher frequencies\, kHz < f < GHz. In this talk we'll discuss how light DM detectors utilizing single phonon excitations in crystal targets\, previously shown to be sensitive to a wide variety of DM candidates\, are also sensitive to GWs in the frequency range\, THz < f < 100 THz\, corresponding to the range of optical phonon energies\, meV < \omega < 100 meV. We'll discuss the mechanism by which high frequency GWs can generate single phonons\, and consider the detector sensitivity of different target materials. Lastly\, we'll discuss how these high frequency GWs may be produced in processes such as black hole inspirals and superradiance.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Respond/ Resist/ Rethink 2023
DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with the Fall 2023 Theme Semester: Arts &amp\; 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 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&#039\;s personal politics\, an artwork&#039\;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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Blessings of the Mystery
DESCRIPTION:The Blessings of the Mystery examines themes of socio-economic\, environmental activism\, encounters between history and memory\, Indigenous rights\, and the formation and distribution of knowledge. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:In Guardian Passage
DESCRIPTION:Duderstadt Center Gallery\nDecember 6 – 22\, 2023\nOpening Reception: Sunday\, December 10\, 2-4 p.m.\n\nIn Guardian Passage: The Power of Ukrainian Cultural Memory in the Face of War\, 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. \n\nBondarenko’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 traditionally made by upcycling old family textiles. Bondarenko’s ceramics illustrate motanka in situations responding to the war\; each graphic is accompanied by a poem. These ceramics act as lifeboats\, which ferry the Ukrainian resistance through the flood waters of destruction. \n\nLisova’s series of tapestries\, modeled after traditional decorative and ritual textiles called rushnyks\, 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 resist and thrive. \n\nThis exhibition is part of the LSA theme semester on “Arts and Resistance” and offered in conjunction with the workshop “Making Motanka: Ukrainian Guardian Dolls” on December 8\, 4-6 pm in Design Lab 1. Instructor: Barbara Melnik Carson.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Rewriting Conventional Societal Narratives with Data and AI
DESCRIPTION:The ubiquity of data and the emergence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) are rapidly reshaping every aspect of human society. However\, as with any emerging technology\, data and AI are deeply entwined with our social matrix. Many scholars have been directing our attention to how data and AI can amplify the existing structural and cultural injustice. At the U-M Data Science and AI Summit 2020\, Catherine D’ignazio and Lauren Klein\, authors of the now classic “Data Feminism”\, advocated for data scientists to adopt principles of feminism to challenge authority and convention\, which sparked enthusiastic calls for actions on campus. In this mini-symposium\, we will hear presentations from leading researchers who have done just that: using data and AI to challenge and rewrite the conventional narrative about a variety of social issues. We will also organize faculty research roundtable discussions to stimulate new research ideas under the same theme.\n\nRegistration: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_fFkP_nPEQjKw5aRZJotm-A\n\nFor more details\, please visit our event page: https://midas.umich.edu/rewriting-conventional-narratives/

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:When do Firms Profit from Wage Setting Power?
DESCRIPTION:In standard models of labor market monopsony\, the profits derived from firm monopsony power depends on the firm's labor supply elasticity. There are two puzzles facing these standard models. First\, different standard approaches to estimating labor supply elasticities produce dramatically different estimates and hence measures of profits from monopsony power. Second\, commonly used low labor supply elasticities imply profit shares of aggregate income that are too high after accounting for price markups and capital income. This paper argues that both of these issues arise from the same limitation - that firms can increase employment only by raising wages. To address this\, we develop a tractable model where firms use both higher wages and costly recruiting expenditures to attract workers. Firms have wage setting power due both to search frictions and workers' heterogeneous preferences over workplaces. We show that whether firms profit from their wage setting power depends on the shape of firms' recruiting cost function\, and the rents acquired by firms from wage setting power can be dissipated by recruiting costs. In a calibrated quantitative model that also accounts for the strategic behavior of a large firm\, profits from wage setting power account for 6% of labor market-wide marginal product and 5% of output. Our findings suggest that wage setting power alone does not imply profits for firms that exploit this power.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Algebraic geometry seminar: Syzygies of adjoint linear series on projective varieties
DESCRIPTION:Syzygies of algebraic varieties have long been a topic of intense interest among algebraists and geometers alike. Starting with the pioneering work of Mark Green on curves\, numerous attempts have been made to extend these results to higher dimensions. Ein and Lazarsfeld proved that if A is a very ample line bundle\, then K_X + mA satisfies property N_p for any m>=n+1+p. It has ever since been an open question if the same holds true for A ample and basepoint free. In recent joint work with Purnaprajna Bangere we give a positive answer to this question.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Convergence of the Backward Deep BSDE Method with Applications to Optimal Stopping Problems.
DESCRIPTION:The optimal stopping problem is one of the core problems in financial markets\, with broad appli- cations such as pricing American and Bermudan options. The deep BSDE method [Han\, Jentzen and E\, PNAS\, 115(34):8505-8510\, 2018] has shown great power in solving high-dimensional forward- backward stochastic differential equations (FBSDEs)\, and in- spired many applications. However\, the method solves backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs) in a forward manner\, which can not be used for optimal stopping prob- lems that in general require running BSDE backwardly. To overcome this difficulty\, a recent paper [Wang\, Chen\, Sudjianto\, Liu and Shen\, arXiv:1807.06622\, 2018] proposed the back- ward deep BSDE method to solve the optimal stopping problem. In this paper\, we provide the rigorous theory for the backward deep BSDE method. Specifically\, 1. We derive the a posteriori error estimation\, i.e.\, the error of the numerical solution can be bounded by the training loss function\; and\; 2. We give an upper bound of the loss function\, which can be suffi- ciently small subject to universal approximations. We give two numerical examples\, which present consistent performance with the proved theory. This is a joint work with C.Gao\, S.Gao and R.Hu.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Optimal Long-Run Fiscal Policy with Heterogeneous Agents
DESCRIPTION:This project introduces a new sequence-space approach to characterizing the steady state of dynamic Ramsey taxation problems. Applying our approach to standard heterogeneous-agent models a la Aiyagari (1995) we find that such Ramsey steady states typically do not exist. Instead\, our results point to the optimality of long-run immiseration in these models\, driven by unreasonably strong anticipatory effects of future tax changes. Deviating from perfect foresight to dampen anticipation generates well-behaved Ramsey steady states.\n\n\nThis talk is presented by the Macroeconomics Seminar\, sponsored by the Department of Economics with generous gifts given through the Michael Beauregard Fund for Macroeconomics and the Economics Strategic Fund.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RTG TopGeomDyn Seminar:  Anosov representations in restriction to flows
DESCRIPTION:We introduce the notion of restricted Anosov representations\, characterized by their dominated splitting behavior over associated flows\, to encompass many non-Anosov representations with good geometric properties\, such as Minsky's primitive-stable representations. As a first application\, for a closed hyperbolic surface group\, we show that the collection of representations which are Anosov in restriction to the simple geodesics flow gives a domain of discontinuity for the mapping class group action (joint with Nicolas Tholozan). Secondly\, for a relatively hyperbolic group\, we show that a representation being both divergent and Weisman's extended geometrically finite is equivalent to being Anosov in restriction to a flow associated with the boundary extension.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Weekly DCMB / CCMB Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nHeart attack\, ischemic stroke\, and venous thromboembolism are leading causes of death and disability worldwide and often result from aberrant blood clotting. Fibrin is a hierarchical biomaterial that forms the structural backbone of blood clots during the hemostatic process. Clots form when individual fibrin molecules polymerize into linear fibers which then branch into a 3-D gel at sites of injuries.  These fibrin networks trap red blood cells and other vascular constituents during the wound healing process. \n\nUsing a suite of biophysical approaches\, we probe the multiscale formation and structure of fibrin networks. At the molecular scale we establish that individual fibrin molecules are not rigid but adapt multiple conformations that likely assist in polymerization. At the fiber scale\, we quantify the processes that govern gelation. Moreover\, we demonstrate that fibers exhibit remarkable elastic properties that enable the clot to hold together\, even under high tension. At the network scale we reveal how relative changes in the initial concentrations of blood clot components result in remarkably different gel structures.\n\nTaken together\, these results provide a wholistic framework for understanding the mechanisms that that determine blood clot structures and linking alterations in these processes to pathologies.\n\nhttps://umich-health.zoom.us/j/93929606089?pwd=SHh6R1FOQm8xMThRemdxTEFMWWpVdz09\n\nResearch Projects:\nNathan Hudson studies the exciting field of molecular biophysics.  Work in the Hudson lab uses techniques including protein engineering\, centrifuge force microscopy\, FRET and microfluidics to understand how mechanical force regulates biological function.  Projects involve measuring the biomechanical properties of blood coagulation proteins and determining the force-depending binding kinetics of adhesion molecules.  There are both graduate- and undergraduate-level projects in the lab and numerous students have won awards for their research with Dr. Hudson.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:FYRST Workshop
DESCRIPTION:First-Year Relationship and Sexuality Talk (FYRST) is a required\, in-person\, and peer-facilitated workshop that came directly from feedback and listening sessions with current University of Michigan students. Our goal is to create an accessible\, supportive space for student-driven conversations where all identities and experiences are welcomed and in which students can build skills and tools around identifying goals and values and then communicate effectively about those. Workshops will be offered at multiple locations and times throughout the fall semester\, so please sign up for the workshop that works for you!! \nFirst-Year Relationship Sexuality Talk (FYRST) FAQ:“How many workshops do I have to sign up for?”You only need to sign up for 1 workshop. Attending 1 workshop will fulfill the requirement for the training. “I see that there is more than one session\, does it matter which one I sign up for?”It generally does not matter which workshop you sign up for. There will be a few that are designated for specific groups such as transfer students or for students looking for accommodations. If you do not fit these groups please try to save these workshops for those that do and you are free to choose among any of the other workshops. “Is this workshop required?”This workshop is required for all transfer and first-year students at the University of Michigan.“I’ve experienced harm around relationships or sexual experiences in the past and I am worried that attending this workshop may be harmful for me.” Our team is aware that students who are coming into the university that have experienced harm in the past. Our workshop is specifically designed to respect and validate the experiences of survivors and has been carefully constructed to avoid any specific descriptions of violence and focus instead on themes of empowerment\, communication\, and boundary setting. However\, if you still have concerns about programming and would like to request alternative programming\, please feel free to reach out at SAPAC-FYRST@umich.edu.“What if I struggle to learn in a presentation setting? I’m an active learner.”Our workshop is built to meet a variety of learning styles\, including time for self-reflection\, small group sharing\, and resources to take with you to work through on your own time! This workshop is meant to be interactive and inclusive. “Can I request accommodations?”We considered accessibility in creating this workshop and selecting the locations in which the workshops are help. However\, we recognize many places at the University are inaccessible and we've set an * next to workshops that are on the first floor and lack stairs. These workshops also will have a presentation (other workshops we do not) and are a good fit for those who might need a large font. Please sign up for those if you feel that accommodations would assist you and reach out to SAPAC-FYRST@umich.edu if you are concerned or have questions. “I missed my workshop\, what should I do ?”Our team tracks attendance at each workshop by having participants swipe in with their MCard. If you are not able to attend the workshop you signed up for\, our team will continue to send reminder emails until you have completed a workshop. In this case\, please sign up for another workshop as soon as you can as the workshop is required and may fill up especially near the end of the semester. No need to contact SAPAC unless you are not able to reschedule. “I have had gender-based violence training before\, can I get this requirement waived?”As this workshop was designed with University of Michigan student feedback in mind\, our workshop is unique to the UM community. Our curriculum focuses on individualized reflection and because of its interactive nature\, each workshop will be unique to the people attending. Although we are excited you already have familiarity with the subject\, this workshop is required for every first year and transfer student. “I’m a commuter/non-traditional student\, do I still have to attend?\"Yes\, this workshop is required for every first-year and transfer student - not only do we want every student to benefit from having this time to connect with peers\, but we also want to make sure your peers benefit from what you bring to our community. If you have any concerns or questions about being able to participate\, please contact SAPAC-FYRST@umich.edu.“I still have questions! Who should I contact?\"Please contact us at SAPAC-FYRST@umich.edu or call our office at (734) 764-7771.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CCPS Exhibition. Modernist Glass from the Polish Past
DESCRIPTION:The glass in this rare collection represents the work of renowned Polish glass artists and designers created between 1960 and 1980. Known as Polskie szkło artystyczne (Polish art glass)\, the works were produced in glass factories in southern Poland and are a feature of many homes throughout Central Europe. The glass masters were trained in schools of art and design and many achieved international fame during their lifetimes. \n\nThe collectors\, Endi Poskovic and his wife Julie Anne Visco\, began acquiring the glass in 2015-16 while Endi was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. Scouring flea markets\, antique shops\, and websites\, they continue to acquire pieces and build the collection to this day. We are grateful to them for making this remarkable exhibit possible at CCPS and WCEE.\n\nOrganized by the Copernicus Center for Polish Studies\, this exhibition is co-sponsored by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design and Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia.\n\nLearn more about the exhibition and the artists at https://myumi.ch/8eVrM\n\nThe exhibit opens on September 15\, 2023 in 1010 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manga no Ryokou: The “Manga Map” and A Journey Through the Art of Depiction in Japanese Cartography
DESCRIPTION:The exhibit examines the intersection between art\, narrative\, and geography within Japanese cartography. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Shadow and Light : Solidarity and Connection with Iraqi Academics
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit incorporates a selection of work from the Shadow and Light project\, an initiative memorializing Iraqi academics assassinated between 2003-2013\, a timeframe which roughly parallels the US-led invasion and occupation of Iraq. \n\nParticipants from around the world — including Iraqis in diaspora — contributed photographs and personal statements responding to the loss of a particular Iraqi academic listed by the Spanish Campaign against the Occupation and for the Sovereignty of Iraq (La Campaña Estatal contra la Ocupación y por la Soberanía de Iraq / IraqSolidaridad 2005-2013). \n\nThe project emerges from a broader effort undertaken by Iraqis and allies to document the assault on Iraqi scholars\, intellectuals\, and cultural institutions which flared in the wake of the destruction and division wrought by the US-led invasion and occupation. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Sentimental Archive: Remembering Nubia through Salvage Anthropology
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit showcases select photographs from The American University in Cairo’s Rare Books and Special Collections Library taken by the renowned Egyptian photographer Abd al-Fattah Eid as well as by the Cairo-born Swiss artist Margo Veillon.\n\nIn 1964\, the construction of the Aswan High Dam displaced Nubians from their ancestral villages along the banks of the Nile in Egypt. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Digital Engrams
DESCRIPTION:The notion that our brains actually create memories first stored and then revisited has been contemplated since the time of Plato and Aristotle. 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.*

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Holding Places Exhibition by Satchel Lee
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Hours: Mon-Fri\, 9 am-5 pm or by appointment: serrag@med.umich.edu\nBorn and raised in New York City\, Satchel Lee is a multi-media artist whose work can best be described as portraiture. 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).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Illustrating the Renaissance Book: From Illumination to Woodcut
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy a selection of manuscripts and early printed books from the 15th to the 17th centuries that were illustrated with illuminations and woodcuts. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Sarah Buckius: !!!techn010ffspring!!!
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.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Seminar Seminar Series: Jing Ouyang\, PhD Candidate\, Department of Statistics\, University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: In the era of data explosion\, statisticians have been developing interpretable and computationally efficient statistical methods to measure latent factors (e.g. skills\, abilities\, and personalities) using large-scale assessment data. In addition to understanding the latent information\, the covariate effect on responses controlling for latent factors is also of great scientific interest and has wide applications\, such as evaluating the fairness of educational testing\, where the covariate effect reflects whether a test question is biased toward certain individual characteristics (e.g. gender and race) taking into account their latent abilities. However\, the large sample size\, substantial covariate dimension\, and great test length pose great challenges to developing efficient methods and drawing valid inferences. Moreover\, to accommodate the commonly encountered discrete type of responses\, nonlinear factor models are often assumed\, bringing in further complexity to the problem. To address these challenges\, we consider a covariate-adjusted generalized factor model and develop novel and interpretable conditions to address the identifiability issue. Based on the identifiability conditions\, we propose a joint maximum likelihood estimation method and establish estimation consistency and asymptotic normality results for the covariate effects under a practical yet challenging asymptotic regime. Furthermore\, we derive estimation and inference results for latent factors and the factor loadings.  We illustrate the performance of this method through extensive numerical studies and an application to a large-scale educational assessment\, the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA).

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

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Respond/ Resist/ Rethink 2023
DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with the Fall 2023 Theme Semester: Arts &amp\; 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 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&#039\;s personal politics\, an artwork&#039\;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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Blessings of the Mystery
DESCRIPTION:The Blessings of the Mystery examines themes of socio-economic\, environmental activism\, encounters between history and memory\, Indigenous rights\, and the formation and distribution of knowledge. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:In Guardian Passage
DESCRIPTION:Duderstadt Center Gallery\nDecember 6 – 22\, 2023\nOpening Reception: Sunday\, December 10\, 2-4 p.m.\n\nIn Guardian Passage: The Power of Ukrainian Cultural Memory in the Face of War\, 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. \n\nBondarenko’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 traditionally made by upcycling old family textiles. Bondarenko’s ceramics illustrate motanka in situations responding to the war\; each graphic is accompanied by a poem. These ceramics act as lifeboats\, which ferry the Ukrainian resistance through the flood waters of destruction. \n\nLisova’s series of tapestries\, modeled after traditional decorative and ritual textiles called rushnyks\, 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 resist and thrive. \n\nThis exhibition is part of the LSA theme semester on “Arts and Resistance” and offered in conjunction with the workshop “Making Motanka: Ukrainian Guardian Dolls” on December 8\, 4-6 pm in Design Lab 1. Instructor: Barbara Melnik Carson.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Faculty Communities within Professional Organizations: Influencing Social Responsibility Teaching in Engineering Education
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Professional organizations (POs) are established communities that significantly influence the competencies and values of engineers\, but the impact of their interaction with academia on undergraduate education is not fully understood. This study addresses this gap by exploring how engineering faculty in POs strategically incorporate social responsibility into their teaching. Relying on Paulo Freire's critical consciousness and the Transformational Agency framework\, it examines faculty reflections on societal and power dynamics for curriculum change.\n\nConducted over eight months\, the study focuses on a Community of Practice (CoP) within the American Institute of Chemical Engineering’s Education Division\, engaging faculty from multiple institutions. We employed qualitative methods\, analyzing interview data through thematic analysis with In-Vivo and Axial coding. Preliminary results highlight how the CoP influences faculty’s reflective practices and understanding of societal structures\, suggesting it enhances educators' critical awareness and ability to integrate social responsibility into their teaching. The findings deepen our understanding of POs’ role in evolving engineering education. They showcase how educators’ involvement in POs can shape socially responsible engineers\, addressing the complex societal roles engineers face. This seminar aims to inspire educators with strategies for creating transformative learning environments.

DESCRIPTION:Philosophy sets great store by asking the right questions. Indeed a correct answer to the wrong question is seldom of any value. You can even obtain tenure\, I am told\, by asking questions that you cannot yet answer. For the past decade\, I have been trying to ask the right questions about computing compressible flow\, and I hope here to provide a glimpse of the answers.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Access and Invitations: Increasing COVID-19 Vaccination in Kenya (Coauthored with Michael Kremer\, Elisa M Maffioli\, Leah Rosenzweig\, and Wendy Wong)
DESCRIPTION:We examine the impact of a vaccination campaign in Kenya that sent healthcare providers to homes inviting adults\, with relatively proximate healthcare services\, to get a COVID-19 vaccine nearby. The intervention increased the cumulative number of doses given by 8.7 per 100 people on the day of the intervention\, equivalent to about a 10% increase over the baseline number of doses in the control group. The greater number of doses in the treatment group persisted in the 3 months following the intervention\, indicating that the intervention induced people to get vaccinated who would not have done so otherwise. A machine learning analysis of heterogeneity reveals that treatment effects are largest among more disadvantaged groups — women\, those with less income\, and those with less education. To examine whether social image considerations influence vaccination behavior\, we borrow a design from DellaVigna\, List\, and Malmendier (2012) and DellaVigna et al. (2016) used in the contexts of charitable giving and voting\, and randomized an announcement of the home visit and vaccination offer ahead of time. This strategy allows those unwilling to be vaccinated to avoid the visit without facing the social repercussions of declining in-person. Contrary to expectations\, there was no evidence that social pressure influenced vaccination. Instead\, the announcement increased the probability of getting vaccinated by 3.8 percentage points\, primarily driven by older participants who are at higher risk of severe disease. A cost-effectiveness exercise suggests that this intervention is comparable to other vaccination campaigns\, at $34 marginal cost per marginal dose.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Mucinomics as the next frontier of mass spectrometry
DESCRIPTION:Mucin-domain glycoproteins are densely O-glycosylated and play key roles in a host of biological functions. However\, their dense O-glycosylation remains enigmatic both in glycoproteomic landscape and structural dynamics\, primarily due to the challenges associated with studying mucin domains. Here\, we present advances in the mass spectrometric analysis of mucins\, including the characterization of mucinases\, software comparisons\, and complete mucinomic mapping of translationally relevant mucin proteins.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Biomedical Engineering Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nMacrophages are innate immune cells that fight infections\, repair tissues\, and contribute to maintaining tissue homeostasis. Macrophages exhibit extensive cell-to-cell heterogeneity\, and my lab is interested in how functional responses emerge from this complexity. I will discuss how my lab has combined single-cell measurements with computational analyses to explore how macrophage interactions via paracrine signaling regulate the collective inflammatory response in vitro. I will also discuss our efforts to resolve macrophage heterogeneity in the more complex environment of melanoma tumors and how this impacts response to combinatorial immunotherapy.\n\nBio:\nDr. Kathryn Miller-Jensen is an Associate Professor of Biomedical Engineering and Molecular\, Cellular\, and Developmental Biology at Yale University. Her lab combines experimental and computational approaches to study signaling and transcriptional regulation in the immune system\, with a focus on how intercellular heterogeneity drives disease phenotypes. Recent work in the lab explores the regulation of functional heterogeneity in macrophages in inflammation\, and how macrophage-mediated extracellular signaling networks shape the tumor microenvironment. Her research is supported by the National Institutes of Health\, the National Science Foundation\, and the Cancer Research Institute. Prof. Miller-Jensen is an NSF CAREER Award recipient and a fellow of the American Institute of Medical and Biological Engineers. She was an NIH NSRA Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of California at Berkeley and she holds a Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

SUMMARY:Performance:Buddhist Chant from Southeast Asia
DESCRIPTION:The melodic recitation of Buddhist texts in Southeast Asia highlights a number of key aesthetic\, musical\, and doctrinal concepts. This interactive session makes the case that exploring rhythm\, pitch\, and syllabic structures with our own voices provides a critical vantage point on musical traditions from the region. Open to all\, the event offers a chance to explore some of the ways in which the sonic features of Khmer\, Lao\, Thai\, and Pali chanting practices are intertwined with the linguistic and religious contours of Theravada Buddhist societies across mainland Southeast Asia.\n   \n   Trent Walker works on Buddhism\, literature\, and music in Thailand\, Cambodia\, Laos\, and Vietnam. His research spans the medieval period to the present\, focusing on handwritten materials—bark-paper documents\, palm-leaf manuscripts\, and stone inscriptions—and their performative realization in speech\, chant\, and song. He has long worked with Thai\, Khmer\, Lanna\, Lao\, Pali\, and Sanskrit sources\, and more recently with those in Tai Khün\, Tai Lue\, Shan\, and Vietnamese. In the field of Khmer literature\, he authored \"Until Nirvana’s Time: Buddhist Songs from Cambodia\" (Shambhala Publications\, 2022) and co-edited a major anthology\, \"Out of the Shadows of Angkor: Cambodian Poetry\, Prose\, and Performance through the Ages\" (University of Hawai‘i Press\, 2022).\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at cseas@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:“Four Years of 'Making Michigan' and Four Decades at Michigan: Some Reflections
DESCRIPTION:What are some key moments in U-M history over the past four decades? How did they come about and what might they mean in a larger context? Gary Krenz has hosted Making Michigan the last four years\, and before that\, he had a career that included time in the Physics Department during U-M's concerted efforts to rebuild the physical sciences\; a span in the Office of the Vice President for Research which saw significant efforts in undergraduate research and the engagement of several national research issues\; seventeen years in the President's Office\, serving presidents and interim presidents from Homer Neal to Mary Sue Coleman\; directing the planning for the University's bicentennial\; and recently\, working to develop the Detroit Observatory as a center for promoting the understanding of U-M history\, science\, and research. In this talk\, he will reflect on themes that emerge from Making Michigan and from his career at U-M. He will also share anecdotes about some of the activities he has been involved with and some of the people he has known.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CCPS Exhibition. Modernist Glass from the Polish Past
DESCRIPTION:The glass in this rare collection represents the work of renowned Polish glass artists and designers created between 1960 and 1980. Known as Polskie szkło artystyczne (Polish art glass)\, the works were produced in glass factories in southern Poland and are a feature of many homes throughout Central Europe. The glass masters were trained in schools of art and design and many achieved international fame during their lifetimes. \n\nThe collectors\, Endi Poskovic and his wife Julie Anne Visco\, began acquiring the glass in 2015-16 while Endi was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. Scouring flea markets\, antique shops\, and websites\, they continue to acquire pieces and build the collection to this day. We are grateful to them for making this remarkable exhibit possible at CCPS and WCEE.\n\nOrganized by the Copernicus Center for Polish Studies\, this exhibition is co-sponsored by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design and Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia.\n\nLearn more about the exhibition and the artists at https://myumi.ch/8eVrM\n\nThe exhibit opens on September 15\, 2023 in 1010 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor. Contact copernicus@umich.edu to schedule a viewing.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manga no Ryokou: The “Manga Map” and A Journey Through the Art of Depiction in Japanese Cartography
DESCRIPTION:The exhibit examines the intersection between art\, narrative\, and geography within Japanese cartography. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Shadow and Light : Solidarity and Connection with Iraqi Academics
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit incorporates a selection of work from the Shadow and Light project\, an initiative memorializing Iraqi academics assassinated between 2003-2013\, a timeframe which roughly parallels the US-led invasion and occupation of Iraq. \n\nParticipants from around the world — including Iraqis in diaspora — contributed photographs and personal statements responding to the loss of a particular Iraqi academic listed by the Spanish Campaign against the Occupation and for the Sovereignty of Iraq (La Campaña Estatal contra la Ocupación y por la Soberanía de Iraq / IraqSolidaridad 2005-2013). \n\nThe project emerges from a broader effort undertaken by Iraqis and allies to document the assault on Iraqi scholars\, intellectuals\, and cultural institutions which flared in the wake of the destruction and division wrought by the US-led invasion and occupation. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Sentimental Archive: Remembering Nubia through Salvage Anthropology
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit showcases select photographs from The American University in Cairo’s Rare Books and Special Collections Library taken by the renowned Egyptian photographer Abd al-Fattah Eid as well as by the Cairo-born Swiss artist Margo Veillon.\n\nIn 1964\, the construction of the Aswan High Dam displaced Nubians from their ancestral villages along the banks of the Nile in Egypt. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Digital Engrams
DESCRIPTION:The notion that our brains actually create memories first stored and then revisited has been contemplated since the time of Plato and Aristotle. 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.*

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Holding Places Exhibition by Satchel Lee
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Hours: Mon-Fri\, 9 am-5 pm or by appointment: serrag@med.umich.edu\nBorn and raised in New York City\, Satchel Lee is a multi-media artist whose work can best be described as portraiture. 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).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Illustrating the Renaissance Book: From Illumination to Woodcut
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy a selection of manuscripts and early printed books from the 15th to the 17th centuries that were illustrated with illuminations and woodcuts. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Sarah Buckius: !!!techn010ffspring!!!
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.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Seminar Seminar Series: Subha Maity\, PhD Candidate\, Department of Statistics\, University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: The problem of algorithmic bias\, where machine learning algorithms reflect biases that are prevalent in their training datasets\, is widely recognized as a major concern. In this talk\, I will discuss two of my projects related to algorithmic biases that are caused by underrepresentation of minority groups. In the first project\, we demonstrate that when learning representations from standard contrastive learning methods\, the representations of minority groups merge with the representations of certain similar majority groups. We refer to this phenomenon as representation harm and demonstrate that it leads to allocation harms in downstream classification tasks. In the second project\, we investigate whether enforcing group fairness is aligned with improving model performance. In light of the long-held belief that enforcing fairness comes at the cost of reduced model performance\, we present an alternative perspective on the problem. In cases where the machine bias is due to the underrepresentation of minority groups\, we show that enforcing fairness is often in line with improving model performance on a balanced test dataset. Furthermore\, we derive necessary and sufficient conditions for such an alignment.

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

DESCRIPTION:Stop by the Collections Case display in the museum’s main atrium\, behind the mastodons\, to see Nature’s Pharmacy.\n\nAugust 2023–July 2024\n\nPlants and fungi play a vital role in medicine due to the diversity of chemical defense mechanisms they evolved to safeguard them against pathogens\, herbivores\, and competitors. From its inception\, the U-M Herbarium has cataloged and described plants—both poisonous and beneficial to human health—and still serves that role today. See specimens of these plant and fungal “friends” and “foes” from the U-M Herbarium collection and learn about how the collection is used for drug discovery today.

DESCRIPTION:Stop by the Student Showcase display in the museum’s main atrium\, behind the mastodons\, to see Molecules of Life.\n\nAugust 2023–July 2024\n\nMolecules of Life (Student Showcase)\nDiscover the connection between form and function as you explore the molecular building blocks of life. In the realm of biological macromolecules such as proteins and nucleic acids\, form determines function\, so visualizing the three-dimensional structures of molecules is key in researching the ‘tiny’ macromolecules that perform vital functions in our cells. In Biophysics 421\, under the guidance of Markos Koutmos\, Assistant Professor of Biophysics & Chemistry\, and Liz Tidwell\, PhD candidate in Biophysics\, students created models with digital modeling software and brought them to life via 3D printing. This exhibit showcases the 3D printed molecules\, scaled up to better reveal the structures that inform\, make\, break\, modify\, and move within the body.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CREATIVE CLASSICAL PEDAGOGIES SYMPOSIUM
DESCRIPTION:SYMPOSIUM ON CREATIVE CLASSICAL PEDAGOGIES\n\nCo-sponsored by Contexts for Classics and Topics in Classical Intersectionalities\n\nFriday\, December 8\, 2023\n11 am - 4pm\, Classics Library\, 2175 Angell Hall\n\n\n11-12:00 Keynote Address\n\nDr. Hannah Silverblank\, Brown University\nHow to crip the dictionary: A pedagogical proposal for ancient language study\n\nThis talk combines a meditation on the politics of Greek-English lexicography with a proposal for a speculative pedagogical collaboration called the “Anti-Lexicon.” The essential aim of the Anti-Lexicon is to challenge and expand the range of meanings that make themselves available to twenty-first century students and scholars of ancient languages and cultures\, with awareness of the implicit exclusionary ideologies that have operated within the history of the discipline of Classics. Steeped in questions emerging from disability justice\, crip pedagogy\, and the language(s) of disability\, this talk invites students and teachers of Classics to consider how we might practice non-traditional acts of lexicography as inclusive collaborations geared toward cultivating more nuanced understandings of ancient linguistic meaning in the classroom. \n\n\n\n12:15-1:15 Panel One\n\nNetta Berlin\, “Dissident Voices in the Teaching of Greek Myth”\n\nFernando Gorab Leme\, “Reception as a pedagogical tool to present (and challenge) the Classics and their primacy”\n\nAmanda Kubic\, “Bringing Gender and Disability Studies into the ‘Great Books’ Classroom: A Case Study of Euripides’ Hecuba and Trojan Women \n\n\n\n1:30-2:30 Panel Two\n\nRobert Santucci\, “Fan Fiction in Ancient Rome”\n\nIan Moyer\, “Incorporating “critical fabulation” into ancient history courses”\n\nSanjana Ramanathan\, “Unraveling the epic: postcolonial presence through cross-temporal comparison\"\n\n\n\n2:45-3:45 Panel Three\nNatalie Francis\, “‘‘Difficult Parents\, Protean Dance’: Theorizing Queer Kinship from Lucian’s Pan(tomime) to RF Kuang’s Babel (2022)”\n\nBrittany Hardy\, “Incorporating Principles of Ecopedagogy into Your Classics Curriculum”

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Respond/ Resist/ Rethink 2023
DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with the Fall 2023 Theme Semester: Arts &amp\; 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 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&#039\;s personal politics\, an artwork&#039\;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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Blessings of the Mystery
DESCRIPTION:The Blessings of the Mystery examines themes of socio-economic\, environmental activism\, encounters between history and memory\, Indigenous rights\, and the formation and distribution of knowledge. 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.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CSEAS Lecture Series. \"Agents” of the state or society? Resistance\, accommodation\, violence and the role of local administrators in post-coup Myanmar
DESCRIPTION:This talk focuses on how state governing structures have evolved in different local contexts in the post-coup period\, and how local authorities in Myanmar responded to the military’s coup and. Dr. Thawnghmung focuses particularly on the role of ward/village tract administrators (WA/VTAs). Who officially serve as the first point of contact with the government. She finds that local administrators have adopted different approaches in response to the coup depending on the authorities in control\, the intensity and scale of the local resistance movement\, their political affiliation and preferences\, and the nature of their relationship with local constituents. These strategies have in turn shaped whether they are perceived as “agents of the state\,” or “agents of the revolution” by local populations and the resistance movement. Those who have been targeted for assassination by the resistance movement tend to be portrayed by the local populations as “agents of the state” who provide crucial information about the resistance movement to the military\, and/or those who enthusiastically carry out the military’s orders\, and/or those who abuse their power and authority. In contrast\, perceived “agents of the revolution” are who remain politically neutral or are respected and trusted by both sides\, or who half-heartedly implement military’s ordinances\, while condoning the underground resistance movement and warning resistance groups of impending searches by security forces.\n   \n   SPEAKER BIO\n   Ardeth Maung Thawnghmung is a professor of political science at the University of Massachusetts. Growing up in Burma\, she and her family employed many of the coping strategies she would later study. She is the author of several books\, including Behind the Teak Curtain: Authoritarianism\, Agricultural Policies\, and Political Legitimacy in Rural Burma.\n\nRegister at http://myumi.ch/RpzJD

SUMMARY:Exhibition:In Guardian Passage
DESCRIPTION:Duderstadt Center Gallery\nDecember 6 – 22\, 2023\nOpening Reception: Sunday\, December 10\, 2-4 p.m.\n\nIn Guardian Passage: The Power of Ukrainian Cultural Memory in the Face of War\, 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. \n\nBondarenko’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 traditionally made by upcycling old family textiles. Bondarenko’s ceramics illustrate motanka in situations responding to the war\; each graphic is accompanied by a poem. These ceramics act as lifeboats\, which ferry the Ukrainian resistance through the flood waters of destruction. \n\nLisova’s series of tapestries\, modeled after traditional decorative and ritual textiles called rushnyks\, 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 resist and thrive. \n\nThis exhibition is part of the LSA theme semester on “Arts and Resistance” and offered in conjunction with the workshop “Making Motanka: Ukrainian Guardian Dolls” on December 8\, 4-6 pm in Design Lab 1. Instructor: Barbara Melnik Carson.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture - Dr. Naomi Levin\, University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Linking human evolution to environmental change is nearly as old as the concept of evolution. As soon as fossils of early humans were identified\, questions were posed about how they fit into a story of changing vegetation and climate. Did human evolution occur amidst a backdrop of (or in part because of) expanding grasses and the development of hot\, arid environments? Answering these questions rigorously requires many different types of data on a range of spatial and temporal scales. The collective communities of paleoanthropologists\, paleontologists\, archaeologists\, geologists\, ecologists\, and climate scientists have made huge strides in addressing these questions in the past 25 years. Among the many data types used\, the stable isotope composition of soil carbonates and mammal teeth has been a key resource for exploring the links between human evolution and environmental change. Soil carbonates and teeth have been so useful in part because the materials are abundant at most hominin sites and because the isotopic data from them can be readily aggregated to address landscape\, ecosystem\, and continental scale questions. In this talk I will showcase new datasets from fossil teeth and soil carbonate\, including triple oxygen and clumped isotope datasets\, that help refine our understanding of environmental change in eastern Africa and answer long-standing questions about the dynamics of temperature\, aridity and vegetation.

There she befriends the Nutcracker and the Snowwoman\, encounters the infamous Mouse King\, and and journeys to meet the Great and Powerful Sorceress to get her greatest wish granted. \n\nAudiences of all ages will enjoy this magical journey filled with ballet\, modern\, hip-hop\, and jazz with selections from the Tchaikovsky score and Duke Ellington suite! \n\nThe show was co-created by father-daughter duo Tim Rhoze and Kara Roseborough and originally premiered in 2018 at Fleetwood-Jourdain Theatre in Evanston\, Illinois. As an extension of Fleetwood-Jourdain Theatre's mission\, this dance theatre work started as a community engagement and equity-based project. The revamped University of Michigan production features an expanded cast and additional dance pieces\, including a selection created through the production's partnership with the U-M Chapter of Ballet & Books.

We have a 166-seat theater and as soon as the tickets are claimed\, no more will be given out.

SUMMARY:Performance:Jake Shimabukuro Holidays in Hawai’i
DESCRIPTION:Ukulele master Jake Shimabukuro brings joy to the world this holiday season with Holidays in Hawai’i.\n\nKnown for his lightning-fast fingers\, Shimabukuro saw his career skyrocket two decades ago when his video of George Harrison’s “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” was posted on YouTube without his knowledge and became one of the first videos to go viral on the platform. His seemingly limitless vocabulary\, on perhaps the unlikeliest of instruments\, has brought new appreciation to the four-string instrument\, causing many to call him “the Jimi Hendrix of the ukulele.” Beloved for his open\, magical\, and transcendent connection with audiences\, Shimabukuro draws on a vibrant catalog of holiday classics for this return appearance\, performing alongside Jackson Waldhoff (bass)\, and other musicians to be announced.
