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.

Pinto (School of Social Work) invites audiences to take part in an exhibition that examines his embodied gender states based on his intersecting childhood traumas and life experiences. In \"My Gender States\,\" Pinto shares his deep and abiding grief related to the childhood death of his sister and the subsequent gender embodiments that ensued stemming from the belief that he was his deceased sister. \n\nUsing autoethnography\, Pinto created a one-person play (\"Marília\,\" 2015) and site-specific installation performance (\"The Realm of the Dead\,\" 2022). These works explore the intersecting and shaping layers of childhood traumas\, gender states\, and his life experience—a story of the struggles\, fears\, and accomplishments he experienced as an immigrant to the United States. In \"Realm\,\" audiences circulated around 25 assemblage sculptures created from vintage suitcases and trunks that evoked the cemetery where Pinto’s sister was buried and the literal and figurative baggage that he\, a queer immigrant\, carried with him. \"My Gender States\" is a selection of materials\, images\, and texts from \"Marília\" and \"Realm\" curated to more closely examine the themes of gender and sexuality in these works. Collected are portrayals of Pinto’s gender states\, gender confusion\, gender embodiments\, gender doubt\, and reactions to gender stigma. \n\nRogério M. Pinto (Brazilian\, American\, b. 1965\, Belo Horizonte\, Brazil) is a University Diversity Social Transformation Professor\; Berit Ingersoll-Dayton Collegiate Professor of Social Work\; and Professor of Theatre and Drama\, School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, at the University of Michigan. Pinto uses art-based methods to conduct community-engaged research in the United States and Brazil.\n\nThe photographs used in \"My Gender States\" are by Emerson Granillo (American\, b. 1987)\; David Newton (American\, b. 1993)\; and Nicholas Williams (American\, b. 1994). The \"Realm\" assemblages featured in \"My Gender States\" were conceived by Pinto and designed by him\, in collaboration with Sarah Tanner. \n\n\"My Gender States\" is on display in the Lane Hall Exhibit Space (first floor\, 204 S State St) from January 23\, to August 13\, 2024. The exhibit is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.\n\nHosted by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women’s and Gender Studies Department.

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

Whether designing furniture or developing the ideas for sculpture\, the process has always been the same. Ideas begin as\nscribbled images that are then stretched and refined with CAD software. At its core\, much of the work studies the manipulation of simple geometry. Dunn looks at the form from different forced perspectives – exploding\, augmenting\, slicing\, repeating\, and lighting. This body of work is a study of perception\, sympathy\, hierarchy\, and reality. The “We Are Virus” series is an adaptation from an initial design where it continued to evolve and adapt through manipulation of parts and scale.\n\nPeter Dunn received his BFA from Wayne State University and MFA from University of Michigan. He currently serves on faculty at College for Creative Studies UID:116532-21837294@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/116532 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Alumni,Art,Culture,Detroit,Exhibition,Humanities,Visual Arts LOCATION:North Campus Research Complex Building 18 - Rotunda Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240115T111145 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240201T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240201T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Stamps School of Art and Design Staff Exhibition DESCRIPTION:January 26-April 12\, 9 am - 5 pm or by appointment\ncontact: serrag@med.umich.edu UID:116536-21837453@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/116536 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Alumni,Art,Culture,Exhibition,Visual Arts LOCATION:North Campus Research Complex Building 18 - Connections Gallery located on concourse level CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240209T105543 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240201T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240201T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Take Your Time DESCRIPTION:Artist Enrico Riley is best known for paintings that investigate violence and hope in cultural traditions in African American culture. His new work—created for his exhibition at the Institute for the Humanities Gallery—is personal and abstract. Started as an attempt to paint for himself\, away from the center of things and off at the edges\, they are from the spaces of private thought that slip into existence and just as easily slip away. They come from an internal conversation and contact with the world. \"When I am with them\,\" Riley explains\, \"I feel a tension between the spaces in the works being present but unnamed. The paintings allow me to observe myself looking. I am acutely aware of time. Maybe they are an invitation to speculate.\" UID:116414-21836776@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/116414 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Black History Month,Exhibition,Humanities,Visual Arts LOCATION:202 S.

Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle. Gather to feel full\, to be moved and inspired by all the possible imaginations of what is yet to come.\n \nCurated by Félix Zamora Gómez Irving Stenn\, Jr. Fellow in Public Humanities & Museum Pedagogy\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n  UID:107870-21817718@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/107870 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Free,Humanities,Museum,Staff,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch Apse CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240130T121548 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240201T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240201T200000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Andrea Carlson Future Cache DESCRIPTION:In Andrea Carlson Future Cache\, a 40-foot-tall memorial wall towers over visitors\, commemorating the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians who were violently burned from their land in Northern Michigan on October 15\, 1900. Written across the walls above and around the memorial\, a statement proclaims Anishinaabe rights to the land we stand on: “You are on Anishinaabe Land.”  \n \nPresented alongside are paintings of imagined decolonized landscapes and a symbolic cache of provisions. Future Cache implicitly asks those who have benefited from the legacies of colonization to consider where they stand and where to go from here and seeks to foster a sense of belonging for displaced Indigenous peoples fighting for restitution.\n\nSpecial thanks to the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians\, Margaret Noodin\, and Richard A. Wiles\, for their consultation on the State Historical Marker text\; to Margaret Noodin and Michael Zimmerman\, Jr. for translating the gallery texts into Anishinaabemowin\; to James Horton and Fritz Swanson for generously producing the letterpress broadsides\; to colleagues at the U-M Biological Station\, U-M Museum of Anthropological Archaeology\, U-M Clements Library\, and U-M Clark Map Library.

How have their perspectives shaped the enduring stories of our history and visions of the past?\n \nYou’re Welcome is a three-part installation and dynamic intervention that exposes the histories and narratives of the land occupied by the University of Michigan and UMMA’s neoclassical building\, Alumni Memorial Hall. A large-scale commission from artist Cannupa Hanska Luger on the exterior of UMMA’s building asks the campus and community to reconsider the memories molded into the Museum’s stone — the perspectives that shaped those traditions and the stories that remain unseen in our facade. This artistic interrogation dissects colonialist norms of monument-making\, explores the roles of buildings in upholding selected cultural systems\, and develops new forms of memorials that center Indigenous perspectives and collaboration to tell fuller stories and histories. \n \nLuger communicates stories of 21st-century Indigeneity\, sovereignty\, and anti-colonialism while offering critical cultural analysis through deep engagements with materials\, environments\, and communities. In addition to the exterior commission\, a gallery exhibition places Luger’s works of art in conversation with objects in UMMA’s collection\, allowing for discussion and thinking on long histories of collecting practices\, environmental degradation\, and the afterlife of colonialism. And\, a monument classroom from nonprofit public art and history studio Monument Lab invites the community to come together and examine how historic structures on the University of Michigan’s campus uphold social and cultural systems and narratives.  \n\nLead support for this project is provided by Teiger Foundation\, the U-M Office of the Provost\, the U-M Office of the President\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, the U-M Marsal Family School of Education\, the U-M Institute for the Humanities\, Michigan Humanities\, and the U-M Arts Initiative.

Collected for each course are objects that address the nature of materiality\, time\, and human interaction in relation to our environments\, our wars\, our relationships\, and our eccentricities. \n \nWorking in collaboration with University faculty\, the works in this exhibition were selected for their capacity to provoke engagement with the guiding questions and themes of their specific courses\, while also offering students inspiration for research and art projects in their areas of study. The exhibition demonstrates some of the diverse and creative ways art plays a central role in learning across the disciplines. It also asks us to consider what we can learn from art objects across an infinite variety of specialties and subject matter.\n \nAs classes begin in Fall of 2021\, you’ll be able to use these pages to explore the collections designed for each course\, dive into the works themselves\, and hear from the professors and students about how they are engaging with art and objects in new ways. Who knows\, maybe you’ll learn something surprising along the way\, too.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, and the Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and the Oakriver Foundation.\n  UID:86001-21795799@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/86001 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Faculty,Museum,Nature,Research,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240216T063223 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240201T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240201T120000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:EY Virtual Office Hours | University of Michigan-Ann Arbor DESCRIPTION:Let's connect at our upcoming virtual office hours!

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621197@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240111T085322 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240201T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240201T150000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Investigate Labs DESCRIPTION:Step into our two Investigate Labs\, where you can use scientific tools and museum specimens to answer questions and solve problems.

This talk will be recorded for later viewing.\n\nAbstract: In this talk\, I will explore the interesting geometries that emerge in high-dimensional attraction basins\, which are important in applications such as protein folding\, cell differentiation\, and neural networks. Using simple networks of coupled oscillators\, I will show that high-dimensional basins are generally highly nonconvex and nonlocal\, with most of the basin volume concentrated in tentacle-like structures. Next\, I will show that introducing non-pairwise interactions in the network can make basins deeper but smaller—the attractors become linearly more stable but much harder to find due to basins shrinking dramatically. I will end with a few applications to neuroscience.

Justifiably\, several studies have investigated engineering student persistence and attrition\, especially during the first year\, and then informed the development of interventions to address the challenges. While those interventions have improved freshmen retention in some institutions\, less has been published on the impacts of these interventions on the sophomore student experience. In this study\, we examined the experiences of sophomore engineering students and explored how these experiences relate to their identities as engineers. We conducted this study using photovoice\, a methodology/intervention in which participants submit photographs to help describe their experiences and give recommendations on improving their experiences and resolving their concerns. Through empowering participants to co-construct the knowledge\, we were able to see what interest\, competence\, and recognition as engineers looked like from the student’s perspectives. This work has the potential to yield practical solutions that institutional stakeholders can implement\, such as intentionally creating cultures of well-being\, self-reflection\, and belonging.

Of all the new planets that have been discovered\, gas giants are the easiest ones for us to find – they are bigger\, brighter\, and more massive than any other kind of planet. This means that they are ideal targets for characterization techniques that can tell us about the planet formation process\, and they are so massive that they dominate the dynamics of their systems\, impacting the formation of other planets. Gas giants are an obvious place for us to start if we want to learn about the physics of planet formation.\n\nIn this talk I will describe my work using multiple observational techniques to explore the formation and evolution of gas giants. I will discuss how targeting directly imaged planets with high-resolution spectroscopy enables measurements of new planetary properties like rotation rates\, obliquities\, and detailed atmospheric abundances. These provide fundamental insights into the physics of gas giant formation\, such as the evolution of planetary angular momentum. I will describe how leveraging high-contrast imaging techniques to look for planets in their infancy rules out gravitational scattering as the origin of wide-separation gas giants\, and constrains the timing of gas giant formation and migration. I will also talk about how radial velocity searches for Jupiter analogs in systems with known inner planets reveal the impact gas giants have on the inner architectures of planetary systems\, and are a key step in the search for life on other planets. Finally\, I will highlight the important role that the next-generation Extremely Large Telescope (ELT) will have in extending these high-resolution spectroscopy measurements to directly imaged ice giant and terrestrials worlds\, opening new windows into their formation histories and enabling searches for biosignatures in their atmospheres.

My seminar will focus on the development of metathesis mechanisms to access heteroatom-rich polymer backbones\, new editing tools to transform existing polymer backbones into different ones\, and both strategies and tactics to depolymerize commodity polymeric materials into valuable small molecules. Specifically\, I will discuss iridium-guanidinate catalyzed ring-opening metathesis of cyclic carbodiimides and the current directions toward diazene metathesis\, as well as an array of rearrangement transformations—including Ireland-Claisen and aza-Cope—applied to edit the backbones of polymers. Besides the focus on polymer backbones\, retrosynthetic logic applied to polymeric materials will be another common thread woven throughout this seminar\, as it is a central element of the research in the Zhukhovitskiy group.

In this talk\, we present work towards developing an analogous theory over a field of characteristic two by working modulo a Frobenius power. As a result\, we obtain modular GL_n-representations whose characters are given by particular truncated Schur polynomials\, thus proving a conjecture by Gao-Raicu-VandeBogert in the characteristic two case. This is joint work with Laura Casabella.

Refreshments will be served.\n\nHaji Noor Deen is the first Chinese person to have received certification\, or ijaza\, in the Thuluth and Naskh Arabic calligraphic scripts of the Ottoman tradition\, after extensive training with renowned Turkish calligrapher Hasan Çelebi. He has gone on to develop his own unique style\, known as Ṣīnī (literally\, “Chinese” in Arabic) which incorporates both Chinese and Arabic calligraphic elements to elaborate a Chinese Islamic calligraphic form for the Arabic script. \n\nIn this lecture\, master Haji Noor Deen will introduce Arabic and Chinese calligraphic traditions and their convergence in the Ṣīnī style. He will be joined by his students Alaa Elamin (Ijaza in Thuluth & Naskh and Arabic Calligraphy in the Chinese Style) and Farzana Razzaque (Ijaza in Thuluth & Naskh).\n\nA selection of Haji Noor Deen’s works will be on display at the event and will be accompanied by a selection of books from the library’s collections featuring these calligraphic traditions.\n\nOrganized in partnership with the Deen Arts Foundation and sponsored by the University of Michigan Library\, Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies\, and Global Islamic Studies Center.

The usual answer has been domestic work\, but the field of slavery studies is in the midst of a historiographical turn toward the importance of sexual and reproductive labor. Enslaved women certainly performed these types of labor in medieval Mediterranean contexts\, and Professor Barker will introduce some of the sources that enable historians to understand these aspects of their enslavement. She will also argue that the framework of domestic\, sexual\, and reproductive labor remains insufficient to express the full range of enslaved women’s activities.\n\nHannah Barker is an associate professor of medieval history at Arizona State University. She studies connections between the Black Sea and the Mediterranean during the late medieval period\, especially the slave trade and the transmission of plague leading to the Black Death. Her book\, That Most Precious Merchandise: The Mediterranean Trade in Black Sea Slaves\, 1260-1500\, was published in 2019. It received the Paul E. Lovejoy Prize and the ASU Institute for Humanities Research book prize\, as well as honorable mentions for the Mediterranean Seminar’s Wadjih F. al-Hamwi Prize and the Middle East Medievalists book prize.\n\nThis event presented by the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

The United Racisms of America: Conceptualizing\, Measuring and Understanding Anti-Black Human Rights Violations\, 1860-2010 DESCRIPTION:A great deal has been discussed about the different types and degrees of violence\discrimination directed against African Americans since they were brought to the United States. Unfortunately\, the work on this topic has largely been fragmented. We thus have separate literatures on slavery\, lynching\, Jim Crow (old and new)\, police violence\, disenfranchisement\, incarceration\, police violence and hate crimes. Despite suggestions that these are all manifestations of a singular underlying phenomenon\, there is very little empirical effort directed toward testing such an idea. Drawn from a larger research project on the consequences of racial violence funded by the Research Council of Norway\, the current talk explores whether and to what degree distinct forms of anti-Black human rights violations fit together in a coherent sense as well as how they vary across space and time. These data will not only shed much light on what was done to African Americans between the years 1860 and 2010 but it will also facilitate systematic evaluations of when things began to get worse and better\, what was the relative intensity of violations\, how long did bad/good periods last\, what are the legacies/consequences of anti-Black human rights violations as well as where efforts should be made to address PTSD\, reconciliation and/or reparations. This effort will also assist in the creation of a grand accounting of what has taken place by allowing individuals throughout the United States to provide their stories and archival material regarding what they experienced.\n\nThis event will not be live-streamed\, but a recording will be later shared.

These solutions can be stored symbolically and analytically continued to the real frequency axis. These advancements provide unprecedented access to correlation functions for both single and many-particle properties and have the potential to be applied to extension of density functional theory. However\, the path to the general application of these ideas is fraught with technical hurdles. We will review progress in diagrammatic methods as a whole and present calculations from our group in that context for the Jellium and 2D Hubbard models and discuss extensions to generalized multiband problems.\n\nIn particular our methodology provides access to response functions such as the optical conductivity. We will present a study of the frequency and temperature dependence of the optical conductivity in the weakly coupled two-dimensional Hubbard model using a renormalized perturbative expansion. The resulting conductivity shows a linear power law behaviour in the intermediate frequency regime. Moreover\, the associated transport scattering time and renormalized mass exhibit a Planckian behaviour. We show that the self-energy of the Hubbard model\, however\, is distinct from existing Planckian models yet gives rise to the same features in the conductivity.

The problem was posed by Leo Moser in 1966\, and the best known lower bound of 2.2195... was proved by Gerver in 1994\, by constructing a sofa whose boundary consists of 18 special curves. While it is conjectured that Gerver's sofa attains the maximum area\, the best published upper bound of 2.37 was proved by Kallus and Romik in 2018 using computer assistance.\n\nImproving upon the computer-assisted approach of Kallus and Romik\, we improve the upper bound to 2.32. Moreover\, without any computer assistance\, we prove a conceptually new upper bound of $1 + \pi^2/8$ = 2.2337... that is much closer to the lower bound of Gerver\, on a large subset of shapes which includes Gerver's sofa. We also discuss the possibility of making the upper bound of 2.2337... unconditional by building upon the approaches of the two results.

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

I am thinking through three distinct philosophical threads: Alain Locke’s ‘value theory\,’ Leonard Harris’ ‘insurrectionist ethics\,’ and Drucilla Cornell’s ‘imaginary domain.’ My purpose is to argue that a philosophical reading outside of fiscal interventions is to redefine how we critique Black social value through the intricacies of resistance\, occupancy of space\, and full citizenship for those who are historically racialized as Black. Therefore\, I will be looking at the art of talking back an ethical undertaking that will inform the reparative justice that will see Black people as fully humanized subjects. Arguably\, to think this through is to Imagine a domain of Black futurity and value.\n\nThis is a hybrid event UID:115731-21835441@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/115731 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:american culture,Diversity Equity and Inclusion,Romance Languages And Literatures LOCATION:Off Campus Location - 4th Floor RLL Commons CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240216T123216 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240201T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240201T180000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs: Investment Banking\, Private Capital Advisory - Virtual Information Session (2024) DESCRIPTION:Build a Solid Foundation with William Blair.\n\nAt William Blair we believe that investing in the growth and success of our employees iscritical to the success and growth of our clients – and the industry atlarge.\n\nIf you are currently a student interested in opportunities in Private Capital Advisory\, graduating between\nDecember 2025 - June 2026 and want to learn how William Blair’s programs can help jumpstart your career in investment banking\, we invite you to join us for an Information Session on February 1st from 5:00 - 6:00pm EST.\n\nLearn what it means to bepart of a culture of collaboration and accountability\, where you are empowered to choose your own path.\n\nYou must register via the William Blairlink above\; registering via Handshake will not register you for this event.

In 1979\, when the Vietnamese invasion of Cambodia led to the ousting of the Khmer Rouge regime\, he fled with his family to Thailand\, spending four years in refugee camps before immigrating to the United States. Memories of traveling vast distances on foot and witnessing the devastation of war—broken bodies\, ravaged landscapes\, abandoned artillery\, ruined buildings\, and the breakdown of social and cultural institutions—underpin his early sculptural practice. While Pich studied painting\, earning a BFA from the University of Massachusetts\, Amherst (1995)\, and an MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (1999)\, he turned his attention to sculpture after returning to Cambodia in 2002 where he laboriously began working with local materials – bamboo\, old rafters\, rattan\, burlap\, beeswax\, broken utensils\, and earth pigments gathered from his local surroundings. Pich’s works have been collected and shown in many museums including the Metropolitan Museum of Art\, the Guggenheim\, the Centre George Pompidou\, the Mori Art Museum\, M+\, and the National Gallery of Singapore\, as well as many international exhibitions including the 57th Venice Biennale (2017)\, Documenta 13 (2012)\, the 6th Asia Pacific Triennale (2009)\, the Setouchi Triennale (2022)\, and the Guangju Biennale (2023)\, among others. He lives and works in Phnom Penh\, Cambodia.\n\nPich’s work is featured in the University of Michigan Museum of Art (UMMA) exhibition Angkor Complex: Cultural Heritage and Post-Genocide Memory in Cambodia\, curated by U-M History of Art Professor Nachiket Chanchani and on view February 3 - July 2024. As crises of public health\, racial injustice\, economic instability\, and climate change spread worldwide\, millions are experiencing distress\, conflict\, indebtedness\, and vulnerability. This mélange of unnerving emotions is hardly new for Cambodians. Between 1975-1979\, when the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia\, about a quarter of the country’s population died of infectious diseases\, weapon wounds\, and malnutrition. Bringing together more than eighty artworks spanning a millennium—including many on loan from collections worldwide—this landmark exhibition presents the visual culture of Cambodia and its diaspora and allows viewers to encounter the still-fresh scars of a genocide and of related upheavals and critically appreciate strategies evolved to nurture resilience.

Now a common tool in modern science\, such coordinate systems have not been always available in the past\; rather\, they are the result of a long evolution which started as far back as the Babylonians in first millennium BCE. This talk will outline the history of celestial coordinates from their early beginning in ancient Babylon to their final establishment with Ptolemy (ca. 100-170 CE)\, with a special focus on the great innovations introduced by one of the greatest astronomers of the ancient world: Hipparchus of Nicaea (ca. 150 BCE).\n\n\n\nTalk begins at 7PM at the Detroit Observatory. Tours of the historic Detroit Observatory will be available after the talk\, including telescope observing\, if weather permits.

Experience what happens when these innovative and soulful world-class virtuosos put on one-of-a-kind performance that audiences find breathtaking and unforgettable.

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.

Pinto (School of Social Work) invites audiences to take part in an exhibition that examines his embodied gender states based on his intersecting childhood traumas and life experiences. In \"My Gender States\,\" Pinto shares his deep and abiding grief related to the childhood death of his sister and the subsequent gender embodiments that ensued stemming from the belief that he was his deceased sister. \n\nUsing autoethnography\, Pinto created a one-person play (\"Marília\,\" 2015) and site-specific installation performance (\"The Realm of the Dead\,\" 2022). These works explore the intersecting and shaping layers of childhood traumas\, gender states\, and his life experience—a story of the struggles\, fears\, and accomplishments he experienced as an immigrant to the United States. In \"Realm\,\" audiences circulated around 25 assemblage sculptures created from vintage suitcases and trunks that evoked the cemetery where Pinto’s sister was buried and the literal and figurative baggage that he\, a queer immigrant\, carried with him. \"My Gender States\" is a selection of materials\, images\, and texts from \"Marília\" and \"Realm\" curated to more closely examine the themes of gender and sexuality in these works. Collected are portrayals of Pinto’s gender states\, gender confusion\, gender embodiments\, gender doubt\, and reactions to gender stigma. \n\nRogério M. Pinto (Brazilian\, American\, b. 1965\, Belo Horizonte\, Brazil) is a University Diversity Social Transformation Professor\; Berit Ingersoll-Dayton Collegiate Professor of Social Work\; and Professor of Theatre and Drama\, School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, at the University of Michigan. Pinto uses art-based methods to conduct community-engaged research in the United States and Brazil.\n\nThe photographs used in \"My Gender States\" are by Emerson Granillo (American\, b. 1987)\; David Newton (American\, b. 1993)\; and Nicholas Williams (American\, b. 1994). The \"Realm\" assemblages featured in \"My Gender States\" were conceived by Pinto and designed by him\, in collaboration with Sarah Tanner. \n\n\"My Gender States\" is on display in the Lane Hall Exhibit Space (first floor\, 204 S State St) from January 23\, to August 13\, 2024. The exhibit is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.\n\nHosted by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women’s and Gender Studies Department.

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

Whether designing furniture or developing the ideas for sculpture\, the process has always been the same. Ideas begin as\nscribbled images that are then stretched and refined with CAD software. At its core\, much of the work studies the manipulation of simple geometry. Dunn looks at the form from different forced perspectives – exploding\, augmenting\, slicing\, repeating\, and lighting. This body of work is a study of perception\, sympathy\, hierarchy\, and reality. The “We Are Virus” series is an adaptation from an initial design where it continued to evolve and adapt through manipulation of parts and scale.\n\nPeter Dunn received his BFA from Wayne State University and MFA from University of Michigan.

Started as an attempt to paint for himself\, away from the center of things and off at the edges\, they are from the spaces of private thought that slip into existence and just as easily slip away. They come from an internal conversation and contact with the world. \"When I am with them\,\" Riley explains\, \"I feel a tension between the spaces in the works being present but unnamed.

How have their perspectives shaped the enduring stories of our history and visions of the past?\n \nYou’re Welcome is a three-part installation and dynamic intervention that exposes the histories and narratives of the land occupied by the University of Michigan and UMMA’s neoclassical building\, Alumni Memorial Hall. A large-scale commission from artist Cannupa Hanska Luger on the exterior of UMMA’s building asks the campus and community to reconsider the memories molded into the Museum’s stone — the perspectives that shaped those traditions and the stories that remain unseen in our facade. This artistic interrogation dissects colonialist norms of monument-making\, explores the roles of buildings in upholding selected cultural systems\, and develops new forms of memorials that center Indigenous perspectives and collaboration to tell fuller stories and histories. \n \nLuger communicates stories of 21st-century Indigeneity\, sovereignty\, and anti-colonialism while offering critical cultural analysis through deep engagements with materials\, environments\, and communities. In addition to the exterior commission\, a gallery exhibition places Luger’s works of art in conversation with objects in UMMA’s collection\, allowing for discussion and thinking on long histories of collecting practices\, environmental degradation\, and the afterlife of colonialism. And\, a monument classroom from nonprofit public art and history studio Monument Lab invites the community to come together and examine how historic structures on the University of Michigan’s campus uphold social and cultural systems and narratives.  \n\nLead support for this project is provided by Teiger Foundation\, the U-M Office of the Provost\, the U-M Office of the President\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, the U-M Marsal Family School of Education\, the U-M Institute for the Humanities\, Michigan Humanities\, and the U-M Arts Initiative.

The first step of RLHF involves learning human values using a reward model from ranking data. It is observed that the performance of the reward model degrades after one epoch of training\, and optimizing the language model too much against the learned proxy reward model hinders the true objective. This talk delves into these issues\, leveraging the theoretical insights from statistical decision theory to design improved reward learning algorithms. We also introduce advanced prompting techniques that generate high-quality synthetic ranking dataset for RLHF. By combining the high-quality RLHF dataset with our improved reward learning algorithms\, we created the open source language model Starling-7B\, which ranks first among all 7B models according to human evaluation in Chatbot Arena.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’....

This new spotlight surfaces research that has been conducted by many scholars for much longer\, highlighting their commitment to telling stories and honoring perspectives of diverse and minority communities. Their work reveals that while there is no unified queer experience in the region\, there is often a one-size-fits all state response to the reality of queer lives in many nations within the region. How can a queer-studies focus advance conversations about decolonization in East European and Eurasian Studies? To address this question\, Queer Focus will have six virtual panels featuring speakers from various disciplines and institutions. Panelists and participants will explore how gendered regimes were constitutive of Russo-centric relationships of power\, defining the region and how we study it\, as we collectively grapple with what it means to re-examine our current research\, teaching\, and institutional practices.\n\n*Panel 3 of the series will take a cultural view of queer studies within the region\, with a focus on cultural production and representation. * UID:117922-21840194@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/117922 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:eastern europe,Gender,International LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240109T140626 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240202T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240202T120000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Data and AI Intensive Research with Rigor and Reproducibility (DAIR³) Training Program 2024 DESCRIPTION:About the program: Learn cutting-edge data science and Artificial Intelligence (AI) methods for biomedical and healthcare research\, ensure the rigor and reproducibility of your projects\, and network with fellow attendees from around the country!\n\nSupported by the National Institutes of Health\, the Data and AI Intensive Research with Rigor and Reproducibility (DAIR³) training program will be led by faculty and researchers from the University of Michigan\, the College of William and Mary\, Jackson State University\, and University of Texas San Antonio\; and cover the following:\n\n- Ethical issues in biomedical data science\n- Data management\, representation\, and sharing\n- Rigorous analytical design\n- The design and reporting of AI models\n- Reproducible workflows\n- Assessing findings across studies\n- Transformer-based AI for biomedical research\n\nWho should attend: university faculty members at any career level\, and \nresearch scientists (staff\, advanced postdocs and PhD students). \n\nWant to learn more?

Zoom registration at https://myumi.ch/63JV3\n\nThis paper extends a theory of disorientations to reveal how attempts to fix and control both water and people are disrupting once-fluid relationships between the Tonle Sap Lake and communities who have lived with-on the lake for generations. Using ethnographic and participatory mapping methods\, we examine the socio-ecological dynamics that preceded and succeeded in the forced relocation of three floating communities in 2018. It argues communities’ experiences challenge land-centric and event-centric understandings of displacement that pathologize fluid lifeways and fail to account for the materiality of water that has shaped floating villages\; multi-generational relationships with their wetland ecology. The concept of disorientations illuminates villagers’ experiences of relocation within a collapsing aquatic ecosystem–a collapse catalyzed by state efforts to impose fixity on both hydrological flow and community mobility. The lens of disorientations invites displacement debates to consider materialities of place—whether pulsing water or living\, shifting soils.\n \n Sopheak Chann is a visiting fellow at James Madison Colleges\, Michigan State University\, and a lecturer at the Department of Natural Resource Management and Development\, Royal University of Phnom Penh.

How are we adapting to these new realities and mitigating health risks for the world’s most vulnerable communities? Join us for the third seminar of the series: Climate Vulnerability & Health — How are we Responding?\n\nIn this talk\, Dr. Pimentel Walker and Dr. Junghans will explore innovative housing solutions for climate resilience in self-built settlements in São Paulo\, Brazil and Bucaramanga\, Colombia.\n \nRegister: https://myumi.ch/Qqy5E\n\n—\nFull description: \nHeat is a growing health risk aggravated by expanding urbanization\, an increase in high-temperature extremes\, and demographic changes. Communities living in precarious settlements are disproportionately vulnerable to extreme heat. Although building techniques to improve indoor thermal comfort can be an adaptation option\, we lack design research tailored to the realities of self-built homes. Design research for passive cooling frequently stems from building standards in the Global North. In the Global South\, these strategies target middle-class buildings\, with higher-end formal construction built by design professionals and engineers.\n\nThis pilot project conducted an ethnographic account of auto-construction practices and constraints in two informal and precarious settlements in São Paulo\, Brazil\, and Bucaramanga\, Colombia. The computational simulations identified interventions that theoretically improve occupant thermal comfort by increasing air velocity and lowering indoor temperatures\, ultimately reducing heat stress. Our collaborative research in Burkina Faso has already implemented interventions\, and it is in the assessment stage. However\, are all identified passive cooling strategies equally feasible and responsive to community expectations? Working with community members and their advocacy networks\, we plan to co-develop passive cooling strategies that are desirable and achievable\, amplifying the voices of low-income residents in the policy agendas for climate and housing justice.

Zoom registration is required at: http://myumi.ch/j73q4\n\nThis event focuses on Soren Mau’s new book Mute Compulsion\, which argues that capitalism survives crises because of the historically unique form of abstract and impersonal power that is set in motion by the subjection of social life to the profit motive. Unlike the forces of violence or ideology that directly acts upon individuals\, Mau argues that economic power as a unique form of capitalist domination shapes the material and social environment in such a way as to indirectly compel people to produce and reproduce capitalist social relations. In the course of his argument\, Mau intervenes in debates covering several topics including: value form theory\, logistics and supply chains\, agricultural production\, ecology and the metabolic rift\, biopolitics\, crisis theory\, technology and humanism\, theories of the body\, biopolitics\, social reproduction and surplus populations\, and theories of the empirics of power.\n \n This event will bring together scholars from various disciplines including History\, Philosophy\, Political Science\, Cultural Studies\, and International Studies\, to engage in Mau’s interdisciplinary arguments that revolve around his central thesis of mute compulsion. The aim is to stimulate fresh insights across disciplines concerning the economic logic and domination specific to capitalism. Therefore this event has the potential to attract interest across disciplinary lines and to encourage collaboration at the University of Michigan. To this end\, we also hope to publish an edited collection of interdisciplinary essays on Mute Compulsion in collaboration with the event’s participants and other U-M scholars in different fields of research. This event will consequently be of interest to various departments within the University of Michigan community given its interdisciplinary focus and timeliness.\n \n Given that the main topic in Mute Compulsion is global capitalism\, this event also entails an international perspective that will speak to the University’s diverse faculty\, staff\, and student body. This event has panelists from the United States\, Canada\, Denmark\, and Mexico whose collective scholarship and research focuses on different global issues ranging from colonialism\, nationalism\, war\, ecology\, cosmopolitan socialism\, and the planetary commons. This event’s international perspective aims to synthesize knowledge about global issues that cross regions to offer a more comprehensive understanding of the world. Moreover\, as the inaugural event of International Studies’ new annual workshop series\, this event will help further the program’s commitment to developing interventions into complex international issues. This international perspective will encourage further collaboration between different national scholars and we hope to use this event to solicit additional perspectives and topics from the Global North and Global South for the proposed edited collection of essays on Mute Compulsion.\n \n This event will also be of interest to undergraduate and graduate students interested in enriching their pedagogical experience at the university. Students will have the opportunity to dialogue with junior and senior academics about their expertise in order to build knowledge in their own respective fields. They will also benefit by learning from the impressive and cutting edge scholarship of an upcoming major theorist writing in the critical tradition. We hope that students will be inspired by the new ideas generated during this event to further their own interests and scholarship during their study at the University of Michigan.\n \n Event Program\n The event involves two panels of three discussants each followed by a keynote talk by Soren Mau. Each panel will be an hour long (15 minutes per discussant followed by a 15 minute Q&A). There will be one 15 min break between panels. The keynote will be approximately 30-45 minutes with 15-20 minutes for Q&A.\n Panel 1 (1:00pm-2:00pm)\n Dr. Matt McManus\, Lecturer in Political Science\, U-M\n Lacey Slizeski\, PhD candidate in Political Science\, U-M\n \n Break (2:00pm-2:30pm)\n \n Panel 2 (2:30pm-3:30pm)\n Marion Trejo\, PhD candidate in Political Science\, York University\n Dr. Dave Zeglen\, Lecturer in International Studies\, U-M\n Jasmine Chorley-Schulz\, PhD candidate in Political Theory\, University of Toronto\n \n Keynote (3:30pm-4:30pm)\n Dr. Soren Mau\, Postdoctoral Fellow in Philosophy\, Aarhus University\n \n Panelist Biographies\n \n Søren Mau is a philosopher who specialises in Marxist theory.

I will discuss two ideas that make use of surprising properties of coherent radiation to open new directions for detection\n\nFirst is intensity interferometry\, which relies on the second-order coherence of light. By recording photon counts rather than electromagnetic fields at a telescope\, intensity interferometry admits longer baselines in the optical and thus greater precision than traditional interferometry. I will describe the Extended-Path Intensity Correlator (EPIC): a proposed telescope array that extends the scope of intensity interferometry. Combined with advances in spectroscopy and single-photon detection\, EPIC can achieve unprecedented precision in astrometry with applications including exoplanet detection and black hole measurements.\n\nSecond is superradiance: stimulated emission of radiation from an absorbing body. I will discuss how rotating black holes\, through the process of superradiance\, become laboratories in the sky for ultralight bosons including the elusive QCD axion. When a boson's Compton wavelength is comparable to the horizon size of a black hole\, the black hole spins down and converts energy into an exponentially growing cloud of bosons. Depending on the bosons' interactions\, the resulting systems can be visible across the spectra: emitting gravitational wave radiation\, populating the galaxy with axion waves\, or appearing as novel pulsar-like objects in the sky.

This yields a general mechanism for producing new incidence theorems and generalizing the known ones. \n\nThis is joint work with Pavlo Pylyavskyy [arXiv:2305.07728].

This modification is driven by the reactivity of the Earth’s rocky shell in near-surface conditions. Modified (or altered) rocks contain information about former climates even in the deep-past (i.e.\, Archean) when traditional marine sedimentary proxies are challenged due to their proneness to resetting. The water-rock reactions can be traced through geological time using the isotope exchange between silicates [SiO 4- —based structures] and H 2 O\, where isotopes of O have masses 16\, 17 and 18 Dalton. In this quest\, my colleagues and I use O-isotopes as tracers of this fluid reactivity in shallow continental and oceanic crust. Using triple O-isotope geochemistry (δ′ 18 O and Δ′ 17 O) and in-situ isotope methods\, we have looked at some of the oldest examples of Yellowstone-type systems\, where the heat of magma and surface waters produced distinct low-δ¹⁸O altered rocks. Such materials represent a chemically resilient isotope fingerprint of ancient atmospheric precipitation that is in turn reflective of climate in distant geological past (i.e.\, in absence of better proxies). In the presentation I show a recent case study on a magmatic-hydrothermal complex of Neoarchean age that recorded precipitation with δ¹⁸O as low as -18 ‰. High-precision U-Pb zircon ages constrain this record at 2673.5 ± 0.3 Ma. This strategy is used to create temporally constrained quantitative climate reconstructions that aid understanding of continental landmass elevation\, relative plate orientation and atmospheric gas content. I will also present some of our recent work on marine sediments that are traditionally used for paleoclimate reconstructions but suffer from diagenetic alteration. Some recent progress on experimental bulk rock-water exchange will be highlighted. Using tectonic and triple O-isotope context\, I show that not every sample can be used to reflect Earth’s surface conditions in a straightforward manner. Instead\, a new set of questions can be designed to study crustal conditions with materials that are susceptible to alteration.

Parsons Lecture 2024: Water\, Copper\, Earth Beings\, and Empire: Late Prehispanic Political Ecology in the High-Altitude Atacama Desert DESCRIPTION:Late Intermediate Period (ca. 950 – 1400 AD) farmers in the high-altitude\, hyperarid Atacama Desert of northern Chile sustained their communities by carefully managing land\, water\, and flocks and by maintaining good relations with powerful\, tutelary earth beings (mallkus). When the Inka entered this area in the early 15th century\, they took over the region’s productive copper mines\, built roads and state installations\, and reconfigured agriculture. Our collaborative project\, which focuses on sites between the upper Loa and Salado rivers\, investigates farming in this seemingly marginal environment. We additionally explore how agriculture and social relations (between people\, and between people and mallkus) were transformed by Inka intervention in access to water and copper minerals\, two resources around which life in this region revolved in the past as in the present. A focus on these two substances helps us to understand local organization and transformations under Inka rule\, and at the same time\, requires us to rethink purely economic explanations for imperial incorporation and actions.\n\nFrances Hayashida is Professor of Anthropology and Director of the Latin American and Iberian Institute at the University of New Mexico. Throughout much of her career she has studied late prehispanic political economy and ecology in desert regions of the Andes\, first in Lambayeque on the north coast of Peru\, and more recently\, in the high-altitude Atacama of northern Chile. With Andres Troncoso and Diego Salazar\, of the Universidad de Chile\, she co-edited Rethinking the Inka: Community\, Landscape and Empire in the Southern Andes (2022\, University of Texas Press)\, which highlights the theoretically innovative and empirically rich research of South American scholars on the Inka in Qullasuyu\, the vast and diverse southern sector of the Inka Empire.

The event is open to all who are interested\, and no background knowledge is required. Food will be provided!\n\nFinn Larsen is a theoretical physicist whose long-term research interest is on foundational questions like the beginning of the Universe\, and the interior of black holes. In this research area\, progress is made by studying simple theoretical models in detail\, understanding their principles\, and drawing lessons about the structure of space and time. The language of quantum computing and quantum information has proven indispensable for these studies and\, by now\, there is a fruitful interchange of ideas between these very different research areas.\n\nThis talk will focus on ideas in quantum computing\, like entanglement and quantum error correction\, concluding with how these ideas enter the modern understanding of space and time.

They are committed to simply being themselves\, not chasing fame or brass rings\, while delighting in and connecting with their audiences as if they were family. The honesty of what they present onstage and the extensive body of outstanding original songs and recordings all contribute to a fiercely loyal audience that continues to grow. “Music to cure what ails you” was how one reviewer in the 1970s described them\, and that is as true now as it was then. They’ve traveled more than a million miles and performed more than 6\,000 shows\, from pig roasts and pool parties to Lincoln Center Out of Doors\, The Barns at Wolftrap and the Kennedy’s Center’s Millennium Stage. They’ve recently begun referring to their career and touring as “Defiantly Hopeful.” In part due to their long career\, but more as a statement about what the music has meant to them. “Folk music is\, at its heart\, defiantly hopeful!” founder David Tamulevich says. “We came of age in the 60s\, at the confluence of Pete Seeger\, Peter\, Paul & Mary\, Bob Dylan and the singer/songwriter revolution. We care much more about what we do and stand for and finding that common ground with our audiences\, than fame or money: this is our community of choice\, and we consider ourselves so fortunate to be here.” Tonight’s show features the Mustard’s Retreat 2.0 duo of Tamulevich and Libby Glover\, who come to The Ark with a new album\, “By Request.”\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4334/4335 for more detail.

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

Future Cache implicitly asks those who have benefited from the legacies of colonization to consider where they stand and where to go from here and seeks to foster a sense of belonging for displaced Indigenous peoples fighting for restitution.\n\nSpecial thanks to the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians\, Margaret Noodin\, and Richard A.

DESCRIPTION:Care in Uncertain Times\n \nAs crises of public health\, economic instability\, authoritarian regimes\, racial injustice\, and climate change spread around the globe\, millions are experiencing distress\, conflict\, uncertainty\, and vulnerability. This troubling combination of experiences is nothing new for Cambodians. Between 1975-1979\, when the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia\, about a quarter of the country’s populations died of infectious diseases\, weapon wounds\, and malnutrition.\n \nThis exhibition brings together more than 80 works of art spanning a millennium to present how the visual culture of Cambodia and its diaspora has evolved in the face of cultural upheaval. Showcasing works from worldwide collections\, including those from some of the foremost members of the Cambodian contemporary art scene\, Angkor Complex allows viewers to encounter the still-fresh scars of a genocide and critically appreciate the strategies evolved to nurture resilience in trying times.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the U-M Office of the Provost\, U-M Office of the President\, National Endowment for the Arts\, Michigan Arts and Culture Council\, Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and U-M Ross School of Business.\n  UID:114750-21833416@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Exhibition,Museum,Public Health,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

How have their perspectives shaped the enduring stories of our history and visions of the past?\n \nYou’re Welcome is a three-part installation and dynamic intervention that exposes the histories and narratives of the land occupied by the University of Michigan and UMMA’s neoclassical building\, Alumni Memorial Hall. A large-scale commission from artist Cannupa Hanska Luger on the exterior of UMMA’s building asks the campus and community to reconsider the memories molded into the Museum’s stone — the perspectives that shaped those traditions and the stories that remain unseen in our facade. This artistic interrogation dissects colonialist norms of monument-making\, explores the roles of buildings in upholding selected cultural systems\, and develops new forms of memorials that center Indigenous perspectives and collaboration to tell fuller stories and histories. \n \nLuger communicates stories of 21st-century Indigeneity\, sovereignty\, and anti-colonialism while offering critical cultural analysis through deep engagements with materials\, environments\, and communities. In addition to the exterior commission\, a gallery exhibition places Luger’s works of art in conversation with objects in UMMA’s collection\, allowing for discussion and thinking on long histories of collecting practices\, environmental degradation\, and the afterlife of colonialism. And\, a monument classroom from nonprofit public art and history studio Monument Lab invites the community to come together and examine how historic structures on the University of Michigan’s campus uphold social and cultural systems and narratives.  \n\nLead support for this project is provided by Teiger Foundation\, the U-M Office of the Provost\, the U-M Office of the President\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, the U-M Marsal Family School of Education\, the U-M Institute for the Humanities\, Michigan Humanities\, and the U-M Arts Initiative.

Collected for each course are objects that address the nature of materiality\, time\, and human interaction in relation to our environments\, our wars\, our relationships\, and our eccentricities. \n \nWorking in collaboration with University faculty\, the works in this exhibition were selected for their capacity to provoke engagement with the guiding questions and themes of their specific courses\, while also offering students inspiration for research and art projects in their areas of study. The exhibition demonstrates some of the diverse and creative ways art plays a central role in learning across the disciplines. It also asks us to consider what we can learn from art objects across an infinite variety of specialties and subject matter.\n \nAs classes begin in Fall of 2021\, you’ll be able to use these pages to explore the collections designed for each course\, dive into the works themselves\, and hear from the professors and students about how they are engaging with art and objects in new ways.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621199@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240111T092357 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240203T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240203T121500 SUMMARY:Presentation:Sea Monsters DESCRIPTION:The film follows a curious and adventurous Dolichorhynchops – familiarly known as a ‘dolly’ – as she travels through the most dangerous oceans in history.

Come to Chelsea's arm balancing workshop! Arm balances are some of the most fun\, exciting\, and challenging postures in the yoga practice. Most require a degree of open hip flexibility\, but don't let this deter you from starting this playful practice now! Using a refined and strong Chaturanga Dandasana\, the arm balance workshop will commence with a Vinyasa flow to warm up the body and neuro-pathways of the mind. Afterward\, we will begin exploring arm balances on the back (supine) to understand optimal skeletal alignment before taking flight. On the backs\, yogis will also develop a true sense of their core and how its location\, stability\, and strength correlate to our arms and legs. Yogis will learn building blocks for full expression of arm balances and transitions between them.

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle.

Written across the walls above and around the memorial\, a statement proclaims Anishinaabe rights to the land we stand on: “You are on Anishinaabe Land.”  \n \nPresented alongside are paintings of imagined decolonized landscapes and a symbolic cache of provisions. Future Cache implicitly asks those who have benefited from the legacies of colonization to consider where they stand and where to go from here and seeks to foster a sense of belonging for displaced Indigenous peoples fighting for restitution.\n\nSpecial thanks to the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians\, Margaret Noodin\, and Richard A.

DESCRIPTION:Care in Uncertain Times\n \nAs crises of public health\, economic instability\, authoritarian regimes\, racial injustice\, and climate change spread around the globe\, millions are experiencing distress\, conflict\, uncertainty\, and vulnerability. This troubling combination of experiences is nothing new for Cambodians. Between 1975-1979\, when the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia\, about a quarter of the country’s populations died of infectious diseases\, weapon wounds\, and malnutrition.\n \nThis exhibition brings together more than 80 works of art spanning a millennium to present how the visual culture of Cambodia and its diaspora has evolved in the face of cultural upheaval. Showcasing works from worldwide collections\, including those from some of the foremost members of the Cambodian contemporary art scene\, Angkor Complex allows viewers to encounter the still-fresh scars of a genocide and critically appreciate the strategies evolved to nurture resilience in trying times.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the U-M Office of the Provost\, U-M Office of the President\, National Endowment for the Arts\, Michigan Arts and Culture Council\, Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and U-M Ross School of Business.\n  UID:114750-21833417@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Exhibition,Museum,Public Health,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

How have their perspectives shaped the enduring stories of our history and visions of the past?\n \nYou’re Welcome is a three-part installation and dynamic intervention that exposes the histories and narratives of the land occupied by the University of Michigan and UMMA’s neoclassical building\, Alumni Memorial Hall. A large-scale commission from artist Cannupa Hanska Luger on the exterior of UMMA’s building asks the campus and community to reconsider the memories molded into the Museum’s stone — the perspectives that shaped those traditions and the stories that remain unseen in our facade. This artistic interrogation dissects colonialist norms of monument-making\, explores the roles of buildings in upholding selected cultural systems\, and develops new forms of memorials that center Indigenous perspectives and collaboration to tell fuller stories and histories. \n \nLuger communicates stories of 21st-century Indigeneity\, sovereignty\, and anti-colonialism while offering critical cultural analysis through deep engagements with materials\, environments\, and communities. In addition to the exterior commission\, a gallery exhibition places Luger’s works of art in conversation with objects in UMMA’s collection\, allowing for discussion and thinking on long histories of collecting practices\, environmental degradation\, and the afterlife of colonialism. And\, a monument classroom from nonprofit public art and history studio Monument Lab invites the community to come together and examine how historic structures on the University of Michigan’s campus uphold social and cultural systems and narratives.  \n\nLead support for this project is provided by Teiger Foundation\, the U-M Office of the Provost\, the U-M Office of the President\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, the U-M Marsal Family School of Education\, the U-M Institute for the Humanities\, Michigan Humanities\, and the U-M Arts Initiative.

Collected for each course are objects that address the nature of materiality\, time\, and human interaction in relation to our environments\, our wars\, our relationships\, and our eccentricities. \n \nWorking in collaboration with University faculty\, the works in this exhibition were selected for their capacity to provoke engagement with the guiding questions and themes of their specific courses\, while also offering students inspiration for research and art projects in their areas of study. The exhibition demonstrates some of the diverse and creative ways art plays a central role in learning across the disciplines. It also asks us to consider what we can learn from art objects across an infinite variety of specialties and subject matter.\n \nAs classes begin in Fall of 2021\, you’ll be able to use these pages to explore the collections designed for each course\, dive into the works themselves\, and hear from the professors and students about how they are engaging with art and objects in new ways.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621200@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240111T092357 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240204T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240204T121500 SUMMARY:Presentation:Sea Monsters DESCRIPTION:The film follows a curious and adventurous Dolichorhynchops – familiarly known as a ‘dolly’ – as she travels through the most dangerous oceans in history.

Between 1975-1979\, when the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia\, about a quarter of the country’s population died of infectious diseases\, weapon wounds\, and malnutrition. \n \nAngkor Complex brings together more than 80 works of art spanning a millennium to present how the visual culture of Cambodia and its diaspora has changed in the face of upheavals. Angkor Complex also allows viewers to encounter the still-fresh scars of a genocide and critically appreciate the strategies evolved to nurture resilience in trying times.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the U-M Office of the Provost\, U-M Office of the President\, National Endowment for the Arts\, Michigan Arts and Culture Council\, the E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Foundation\, Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, U-M Ross School of Business\, U-M Department of History of Art\, Mark and Julie Phillips\, U-M Center for Southeast Asian Studies\, US Department of Education Title VI grant\, and an anonymous donor.

However\, the artifacts highlighted in this Sunday Drop-In Tour could more appropriately be described as “not my best”! Based on the popular special exhibition titled *Less Than Perfect* from 2016–2017\, this tour will focus on objects in the Kelsey Museum’s collection that could have been given a bit more attention in their initial creation. As we take a look at artifacts with visible flaws\, we will consider how ancient artists and craftspeople responded to concepts such as perfection\, imperfection\, and failure.\n\nThis event is free and open to all visitors. If you have any questions or concerns regarding accessing this event\, please visit our accessibility page at https://myumi.ch/zwPkd or contact the education office by calling (734) 647-4167.

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.

Pinto (School of Social Work) invites audiences to take part in an exhibition that examines his embodied gender states based on his intersecting childhood traumas and life experiences. In \"My Gender States\,\" Pinto shares his deep and abiding grief related to the childhood death of his sister and the subsequent gender embodiments that ensued stemming from the belief that he was his deceased sister. \n\nUsing autoethnography\, Pinto created a one-person play (\"Marília\,\" 2015) and site-specific installation performance (\"The Realm of the Dead\,\" 2022). These works explore the intersecting and shaping layers of childhood traumas\, gender states\, and his life experience—a story of the struggles\, fears\, and accomplishments he experienced as an immigrant to the United States. In \"Realm\,\" audiences circulated around 25 assemblage sculptures created from vintage suitcases and trunks that evoked the cemetery where Pinto’s sister was buried and the literal and figurative baggage that he\, a queer immigrant\, carried with him. \"My Gender States\" is a selection of materials\, images\, and texts from \"Marília\" and \"Realm\" curated to more closely examine the themes of gender and sexuality in these works. Collected are portrayals of Pinto’s gender states\, gender confusion\, gender embodiments\, gender doubt\, and reactions to gender stigma. \n\nRogério M. Pinto (Brazilian\, American\, b. 1965\, Belo Horizonte\, Brazil) is a University Diversity Social Transformation Professor\; Berit Ingersoll-Dayton Collegiate Professor of Social Work\; and Professor of Theatre and Drama\, School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, at the University of Michigan. Pinto uses art-based methods to conduct community-engaged research in the United States and Brazil.\n\nThe photographs used in \"My Gender States\" are by Emerson Granillo (American\, b. 1987)\; David Newton (American\, b. 1993)\; and Nicholas Williams (American\, b. 1994). The \"Realm\" assemblages featured in \"My Gender States\" were conceived by Pinto and designed by him\, in collaboration with Sarah Tanner. \n\n\"My Gender States\" is on display in the Lane Hall Exhibit Space (first floor\, 204 S State St) from January 23\, to August 13\, 2024. The exhibit is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.\n\nHosted by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women’s and Gender Studies Department.

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best.

Whether designing furniture or developing the ideas for sculpture\, the process has always been the same. Ideas begin as\nscribbled images that are then stretched and refined with CAD software. At its core\, much of the work studies the manipulation of simple geometry. Dunn looks at the form from different forced perspectives – exploding\, augmenting\, slicing\, repeating\, and lighting. This body of work is a study of perception\, sympathy\, hierarchy\, and reality. The “We Are Virus” series is an adaptation from an initial design where it continued to evolve and adapt through manipulation of parts and scale.\n\nPeter Dunn received his BFA from Wayne State University and MFA from University of Michigan.

His new work—created for his exhibition at the Institute for the Humanities Gallery—is personal and abstract. Started as an attempt to paint for himself\, away from the center of things and off at the edges\, they are from the spaces of private thought that slip into existence and just as easily slip away. They come from an internal conversation and contact with the world. \"When I am with them\,\" Riley explains\, \"I feel a tension between the spaces in the works being present but unnamed. The paintings allow me to observe myself looking. I am acutely aware of time. Maybe they are an invitation to speculate.\" UID:116414-21836780@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/116414 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Black History Month,Exhibition,Humanities,Visual Arts LOCATION:202 S.

Yet these communities’ enormous diversity and complexity raises the question of whether it is possible to predict their dynamics. While the environment plays a direct role in selecting for particular species\, measuring these direct effects may not be sufficient for making predictions\, because the environment also indirectly alters interactions between species. Moreover\, measurements of communities in particular conditions may not predict their behavior when the environment fluctuates between conditions. In this talk\, I will explain how I have employed tractable laboratory microcosms and mathematical models to formulate unifying rules of microbial communities subject to changing temperature\, mortality\, and fluctuations. I will also outline future plans to study longer-term community dynamics and to predict when evolution will maintain or destabilize coexistence.

It has only been in the past 5 years that researchers have started to pay attention to the social determinants of mental health in the African context. In this analysis\, we draw on three waves of data from an ongoing longitudinal study in two low income communities in Nairobi\, Kenya to unpack the complex relationship among the conditions of marriage\, kinship support and maternal mental health. Using cross-lagged and moderated mediation models\, we find some support for the protective role of unions for maternal mental health but limited evidence for the mediating role of kinship support.\n\nBio: Sangeetha Madhavan is Professor & Chair of African American Studies and Professor of Sociology at the University of Maryland. As a family demographer working in Africa\, she has made substantial contributions to our understanding of extended family systems\, parenting\, household dynamics\, and child and adolescent well-being. She currently serves as the Principal Investigator for an NICHD R01 project that seeks to understand the interactional effects of marriage and kinship support on young children’s development in poor urban communities in Nairobi\, Kenya. Recent research has appeared in Population and Development Review\, Population\, Space and Place\, Social Science Research and Journal of Marriage and Family. \n\nJoin us in person at ISR (Thompson Street) Room 1430.\n\nOr online: Join Zoom Meeting\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/95418610585?pwd=Z0cvdkF1T0R2cG1lRDEvVmlnbVdlZz09\n\nMeeting ID: 954 1861 0585\nPasscode: 818420\nOne tap mobile\n+13017158592\,\,95418610585# US (Washington DC)\n+13092053325\,\,95418610585# US\n\nDial by your location\n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n+1 309 205 3325 US\n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n+1 646 876 9923 US (New York)\n+1 646 931 3860 US\n+1 564 217 2000 US\n+1 669 444 9171 US\n+1 669 900 6833 US (San Jose)\n+1 719 359 4580 US\n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)\n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)\n+1 386 347 5053 US\n+1 647 374 4685 Canada\n+1 647 558 0588 Canada\n+1 778 907 2071 Canada\n+1 780 666 0144 Canada\n+1 204 272 7920 Canada\n+1 438 809 7799 Canada\n+1 587 328 1099 Canada\nMeeting ID: 954 1861 0585\nFind your local number: https://umich.zoom.us/u/aCRAyuQaT\n\nJoin by SIP\n95418610585@zoomcrc.com\n\nJoin by H.323\n162.255.37.11 (US West)\n162.255.36.11 (US East)\n115.114.131.7 (India Mumbai)\n115.114.115.7 (India Hyderabad)\n213.19.144.110 (Amsterdam Netherlands)\n213.244.140.110 (Germany)\n103.122.166.55 (Australia Sydney)\n103.122.167.55 (Australia Melbourne)\n149.137.40.110 (Singapore)\n64.211.144.160 (Brazil)\n149.137.68.253 (Mexico)\n69.174.57.160 (Canada Toronto)\n65.39.152.160 (Canada Vancouver)\n207.226.132.110 (Japan Tokyo)\n149.137.24.110 (Japan Osaka)\nMeeting ID: 954 1861 0585\nPasscode: 818420 UID:115625-21835165@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/115625 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Africa,Public Health,Social Sciences,Women's Studies LOCATION:Institute For Social Research - 1430 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231214T123048 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240205T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240205T160000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Art of Resistance in Early America DESCRIPTION:The exhibition addresses the theme of the LSA Fall 2023 semester at the University of Michigan: \"Arts & Resistance.\" This exhibit asks us to think about resistance in different settings\, and in different forms.

This is especially true in species where males and females mate with more than one individual. In an evolutionary sense\, neither a father nor a mother “cares” as much about the fitness of their partner as they do about the fitness of their offspring. I will discuss the impacts this conflict has on the evolution of genitalia and seminal fluid\, with special consideration of humans.

It underpins both pillars of the program: the reciprocity conjecture\, which relates automorphic representations of G to Galois representations valued in ^LG\, and the functoriality conjecture\, which relates automorphic representations of two different groups whose L-groups are related. We will discuss how considerations of functoriality lead to an extension of the concept of L-group to certain non-linear covering groups\, and how these can be organized using a new kind of fundamental group associated to G. We will focus on the case of a local field.

Give me a Coal Mine and I Will Raze the World. DESCRIPTION:Coal mines have long been productive sites of historical inquiry. Delving into the labor relations within them and the communities around them\, scholars have uncovered insights into how societies and economies have been fundamentally remade in the industrial age. It was not until more recently\, though\, that sustained consideration was also given to coal mines as sites of energy extraction that helped fuel the era’s far-reaching industrial transformations. In this talk\, I explore the implications of such an energetic perspective for how we can make sense of the workings of coal mines and\, by extension\, the wider world that came to so deeply depend upon them.\n\nVictor Seow is a historian of technology\, science\, and industry\, focusing on China and Japan in global contexts and in histories of energy and work. He is the author of Carbon Technocracy: Energy Regimes in Modern East Asia (University of Chicago Press\, 2022)\, a study of the relationship between energy and power through the history of East Asia’s onetime largest coal mine. Carbon Technocracy has received several awards\, including the Association for Asian Studies’ John Whitney Hall Book Prize and the Society for Historians of American Foreign Relations’ Michael H. Hunt Prize for International History. Victor is currently working on a new project on the history of industrial psychology in China.

In this talk we will explore the topology of configurations of n points on the plane. Through pictures and examples\, we will first see how the motion of the particles generates (co)homology classes of these spaces. We will then see how to associate trees and graphs to these classes\, and describe a combinatorial pairing between trees and graphs that is analogous to the pairing between cohomology and homology.

It was often associated with the fiery images and ominous messaging of its front pages. Far more than a sensationalist tabloid\, the paper stood out in Black communities for its grassroots investigative journalism and critique of structural racism. It also served as an important source of information for racial justice organizations\, like CORE and the NAACP\, as well as those surveilling Black communities such as the FBI and the KKK.

Else Lecture in the Humanities\n---\nThis talk examines the role of the Mexica past in José Antonio de Villerías' Guadalupe\, a Latin epic from baroque Mexico. Written at the start of the eighteenth century\, this text reflects different strategies whereby elite Spanish Americans\, or creoles\, began to separate themselves from Iberians\, on the one hand\, and from indigenous Americans\, on the other. Attention to the epic's deployment of words like indigenus and nativus shed light on how this text recuperates indigeneity as it eliminates Indigenous peoples from Mexican history. Virgil’s visual art informs scenes of historical fiction in Guadalupe\, which rewrite the past to create a natural transition from the greatness of Tenochtitlan to the splendor of creole Mexico. First\, the epic draws on Virgil’s ecphrasis of the Temple of Juno to graft Aztec or Mexica history onto ancient monuments\, following a creole tradition of identifying pre-Columbian civilizations as their classical heritage. Second\, in an epic catalogue of flowers\, the text turns to the pseudo-Virgilian Culex to harmonize creole and Spanish claims to the Virgin of Guadalupe’s divine favor. The interweaving of Latin\, Greek\, and Nahua names for these flowers positions creoles\, and not Spaniards\, as the spiritual heirs to the Mexica “empire.”\n\nErika Valdivieso is an assistant professor of Classics at Yale University\, where she is a faculty member of the Program in Early Modern Studies. Her current project\, provisionally titled \"Empire's Companion: Virgilian Epics from the Amerias\,\" draws attention to the relationship between education\, literature\, and imperial imagination in four Latin epics from Iberoamerica. She is interested in the history of the book in Spanish and Portuguese America and has published on the dissemination and transmission of classical texts in early modernity.

Free and open to the public.\n\nABOUT THE GUEST ARTISTS\n\nCellist DENNIS PARKER was born in New York City and began his cello studies at the age of six. He received his early training with Channing Robbins of the Juilliard School\, and later earned degrees from Indiana University and Yale University\, where he worked with Janos Starker and Aldo Parisot\, respectively.\n \nSince 1988\, Parker has served as Professor of Cello and String Chamber Music at the Louisiana State University School of Music. A former member of the Detroit Symphony Orchestra\, Parker has also served as Principal Cellist of the Porto Alegre Symphony Orchestra in Porto Alegre\, Brazil. In 2003 he recorded to DVD the first complete performance of David Popper’s “High School of Cello Playing” and authored of the accompanying manual\, “Popper Manifesto.”\n\nInspired by a variety of musical activity\, Parker appears frequently as soloist\, recitalist\, collaborator\, and guest professor at universities and festivals worldwide. He is actively involved in the expansion of the existing cello repertoire\, and has transcribed many important works for his instrument: *Mozart on Cello?* presents Mozart’s *Sinfonia Concertante for Violin and Viola\, K364*\, and Mozart’s *A Major Violin Concerto\, K219*\, Vivaldi’s *Four Seasons*\, Brahms’s *Viola Sonata in E Flat Major* to name but a few.\n\nParker has also released CDs with the Centaur label: *Cello Matters* features crossover music for cello and piano by Liduino Pitombeira\, Daniel Schnyder\, David Baker\, and Astor Piazzolla\; *Uplifting Discoveries from a Generation Lost* is a recording of chamber music by composers who perished in the Holocaust (Erwin Schulhoff\, Gideon Klein\, Viktor Ullmann and Hans Krasa).

He lives in Baton Rouge\, Louisiana with his wife\, artist Jacqueline Dee Parker\, and their oversized Shepherd/Lab\, Leda.\n\n\nGREGORY SIOLES is an Adjunct Associate Professor of Music at the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music.

An avid chamber musician\, he has collaborated with numerous artists\, including Edgar Meyer\, Barry Tuckwell\, the Guarneri String Quartet\, and members of the Baltimore and National Symphonies. Part of the Washington D.C. music scene for over a decade\, he performed solo and chamber recitals in many of the city's most important halls\, among them the Kennedy Center and National Gallery\, the Phillips Collection\, Strathmore Hall\, the French Embassy\, and the Corcoran Gallery. Recent international engagements have taken him to Taiwan with bassist Yung-Chiao Wei\, where he performed and presented master classes in five major Taiwanese cities including Kaohsiung and Taipei.

His recordings for Centaur Records include a solo disc and a CD of French Sonatas with violinist Lin He.

In \"My Gender States\,\" Pinto shares his deep and abiding grief related to the childhood death of his sister and the subsequent gender embodiments that ensued stemming from the belief that he was his deceased sister. \n\nUsing autoethnography\, Pinto created a one-person play (\"Marília\,\" 2015) and site-specific installation performance (\"The Realm of the Dead\,\" 2022). These works explore the intersecting and shaping layers of childhood traumas\, gender states\, and his life experience—a story of the struggles\, fears\, and accomplishments he experienced as an immigrant to the United States. In \"Realm\,\" audiences circulated around 25 assemblage sculptures created from vintage suitcases and trunks that evoked the cemetery where Pinto’s sister was buried and the literal and figurative baggage that he\, a queer immigrant\, carried with him. \"My Gender States\" is a selection of materials\, images\, and texts from \"Marília\" and \"Realm\" curated to more closely examine the themes of gender and sexuality in these works. Collected are portrayals of Pinto’s gender states\, gender confusion\, gender embodiments\, gender doubt\, and reactions to gender stigma. \n\nRogério M. Pinto (Brazilian\, American\, b. 1965\, Belo Horizonte\, Brazil) is a University Diversity Social Transformation Professor\; Berit Ingersoll-Dayton Collegiate Professor of Social Work\; and Professor of Theatre and Drama\, School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, at the University of Michigan. Pinto uses art-based methods to conduct community-engaged research in the United States and Brazil.\n\nThe photographs used in \"My Gender States\" are by Emerson Granillo (American\, b. 1987)\; David Newton (American\, b. 1993)\; and Nicholas Williams (American\, b. 1994). The \"Realm\" assemblages featured in \"My Gender States\" were conceived by Pinto and designed by him\, in collaboration with Sarah Tanner. \n\n\"My Gender States\" is on display in the Lane Hall Exhibit Space (first floor\, 204 S State St) from January 23\, to August 13\, 2024. The exhibit is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.\n\nHosted by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women’s and Gender Studies Department.

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

Whether designing furniture or developing the ideas for sculpture\, the process has always been the same. Ideas begin as\nscribbled images that are then stretched and refined with CAD software. At its core\, much of the work studies the manipulation of simple geometry. Dunn looks at the form from different forced perspectives – exploding\, augmenting\, slicing\, repeating\, and lighting. This body of work is a study of perception\, sympathy\, hierarchy\, and reality. The “We Are Virus” series is an adaptation from an initial design where it continued to evolve and adapt through manipulation of parts and scale.\n\nPeter Dunn received his BFA from Wayne State University and MFA from University of Michigan. He currently serves on faculty at College for Creative Studies UID:116532-21837299@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/116532 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Alumni,Art,Culture,Detroit,Exhibition,Humanities,Visual Arts LOCATION:North Campus Research Complex Building 18 - Rotunda Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240115T111145 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240206T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240206T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Stamps School of Art and Design Staff Exhibition DESCRIPTION:January 26-April 12\, 9 am - 5 pm or by appointment\ncontact: serrag@med.umich.edu UID:116536-21837458@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/116536 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Alumni,Art,Culture,Exhibition,Visual Arts LOCATION:North Campus Research Complex Building 18 - Connections Gallery located on concourse level CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240209T105543 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240206T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240206T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Take Your Time DESCRIPTION:Artist Enrico Riley is best known for paintings that investigate violence and hope in cultural traditions in African American culture. His new work—created for his exhibition at the Institute for the Humanities Gallery—is personal and abstract. Started as an attempt to paint for himself\, away from the center of things and off at the edges\, they are from the spaces of private thought that slip into existence and just as easily slip away. They come from an internal conversation and contact with the world. \"When I am with them\,\" Riley explains\, \"I feel a tension between the spaces in the works being present but unnamed. The paintings allow me to observe myself looking. I am acutely aware of time. Maybe they are an invitation to speculate.\" UID:116414-21836781@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/116414 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Black History Month,Exhibition,Humanities,Visual Arts LOCATION:202 S.

Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle. Gather to feel full\, to be moved and inspired by all the possible imaginations of what is yet to come.\n \nCurated by Félix Zamora Gómez Irving Stenn\, Jr. Fellow in Public Humanities & Museum Pedagogy\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n  UID:107870-21817722@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/107870 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Free,Humanities,Museum,Staff,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch Apse CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240130T121548 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240206T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240206T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Andrea Carlson Future Cache DESCRIPTION:In Andrea Carlson Future Cache\, a 40-foot-tall memorial wall towers over visitors\, commemorating the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians who were violently burned from their land in Northern Michigan on October 15\, 1900. Written across the walls above and around the memorial\, a statement proclaims Anishinaabe rights to the land we stand on: “You are on Anishinaabe Land.”  \n \nPresented alongside are paintings of imagined decolonized landscapes and a symbolic cache of provisions. Future Cache implicitly asks those who have benefited from the legacies of colonization to consider where they stand and where to go from here and seeks to foster a sense of belonging for displaced Indigenous peoples fighting for restitution.\n\nSpecial thanks to the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians\, Margaret Noodin\, and Richard A. Wiles\, for their consultation on the State Historical Marker text\; to Margaret Noodin and Michael Zimmerman\, Jr. for translating the gallery texts into Anishinaabemowin\; to James Horton and Fritz Swanson for generously producing the letterpress broadsides\; to colleagues at the U-M Biological Station\, U-M Museum of Anthropological Archaeology\, U-M Clements Library\, and U-M Clark Map Library.

DESCRIPTION:Care in Uncertain Times\n \nAs crises of public health\, economic instability\, authoritarian regimes\, racial injustice\, and climate change spread around the globe\, millions are experiencing distress\, conflict\, uncertainty\, and vulnerability. This troubling combination of experiences is nothing new for Cambodians. Between 1975-1979\, when the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia\, about a quarter of the country’s populations died of infectious diseases\, weapon wounds\, and malnutrition.\n \nThis exhibition brings together more than 80 works of art spanning a millennium to present how the visual culture of Cambodia and its diaspora has evolved in the face of cultural upheaval. Showcasing works from worldwide collections\, including those from some of the foremost members of the Cambodian contemporary art scene\, Angkor Complex allows viewers to encounter the still-fresh scars of a genocide and critically appreciate the strategies evolved to nurture resilience in trying times.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the U-M Office of the Provost\, U-M Office of the President\, National Endowment for the Arts\, Michigan Arts and Culture Council\, Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and U-M Ross School of Business.\n  UID:114750-21833418@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Exhibition,Museum,Public Health,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

How have their perspectives shaped the enduring stories of our history and visions of the past?\n \nYou’re Welcome is a three-part installation and dynamic intervention that exposes the histories and narratives of the land occupied by the University of Michigan and UMMA’s neoclassical building\, Alumni Memorial Hall. A large-scale commission from artist Cannupa Hanska Luger on the exterior of UMMA’s building asks the campus and community to reconsider the memories molded into the Museum’s stone — the perspectives that shaped those traditions and the stories that remain unseen in our facade. This artistic interrogation dissects colonialist norms of monument-making\, explores the roles of buildings in upholding selected cultural systems\, and develops new forms of memorials that center Indigenous perspectives and collaboration to tell fuller stories and histories. \n \nLuger communicates stories of 21st-century Indigeneity\, sovereignty\, and anti-colonialism while offering critical cultural analysis through deep engagements with materials\, environments\, and communities. In addition to the exterior commission\, a gallery exhibition places Luger’s works of art in conversation with objects in UMMA’s collection\, allowing for discussion and thinking on long histories of collecting practices\, environmental degradation\, and the afterlife of colonialism. And\, a monument classroom from nonprofit public art and history studio Monument Lab invites the community to come together and examine how historic structures on the University of Michigan’s campus uphold social and cultural systems and narratives.  \n\nLead support for this project is provided by Teiger Foundation\, the U-M Office of the Provost\, the U-M Office of the President\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, the U-M Marsal Family School of Education\, the U-M Institute for the Humanities\, Michigan Humanities\, and the U-M Arts Initiative.

Collected for each course are objects that address the nature of materiality\, time\, and human interaction in relation to our environments\, our wars\, our relationships\, and our eccentricities. \n \nWorking in collaboration with University faculty\, the works in this exhibition were selected for their capacity to provoke engagement with the guiding questions and themes of their specific courses\, while also offering students inspiration for research and art projects in their areas of study. The exhibition demonstrates some of the diverse and creative ways art plays a central role in learning across the disciplines. It also asks us to consider what we can learn from art objects across an infinite variety of specialties and subject matter.\n \nAs classes begin in Fall of 2021\, you’ll be able to use these pages to explore the collections designed for each course\, dive into the works themselves\, and hear from the professors and students about how they are engaging with art and objects in new ways.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621201@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240221T063138 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240206T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240206T130000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:BOEM's Ask a Marine Biologist/Environmental Scientist/Physical Scientist DESCRIPTION:Are you intrigued by the mysteries of the ocean or passionate about protecting the environment?

At the same time\, agroecosystems are a nexus of human-wildlife interactions\, with surprisingly little known about the reciprocal impacts among rodents and agriculture. Notably lacking is information on seasonal variation in crop resource use and individual variation. For my dissertation\, Schlis-Elias will use a combination of classic bulk tissue and cutting-edge compound-specific stable isotope analyses to address several understudied aspects of rodent trophic structure\, resource use\, and energy flow in Southeast Michigan agroecosystems.

Under discussion will be the key historiographical issues of what we can rely on in the book and what we cannot\; of the aspects of the Northern Wei realm that it does speak of and the aspects that it does not. Key to these issues is better understanding of the roles of the literate Chinese who composed Wei shu\, and their relationship with the alien lords they served. For the first century at least of Northern Wei\, these men were largely strangers in a strange land.\n \n Scott Pearce took his PhD at Princeton\, under the direction of Denis Twitchett\, and now teaches at Western Washington University\, in the state of Washington. His research focuses on the political\, military and social history of the Northern Dynasties\, including Northern Wei and its sixth-century successor states. In addition to a Cambridge History of China chapter\, he has published a book on \"Northern Wei (386-534): A New Form of Empire in East Asia\,\" which came out from Oxford in 2023. This was an effort to produce a full history of that dynasty\, stretching back into its Inner Asian origins. He is now at work on a successor volume on the later Northern Dynasties\, in part through time recently spent as a visiting scholar at the Institute for Advanced Study\, Princeton\, and at NYU’s Institute for Study of the Ancient World\, in New York City.\n \nAttend in person or via Zoom.

VQAs have an established theoretical potential\, but their ability to effectively solve problems arising from practical applications\, and whether this utility can be wholly replicated by quantum-inspired classical algorithms\, remains an active area of interest. We present a novel application of both the Variational Quantum Linear Solver (VQLS) and the Variational Neural Linear Solver (VNLS)—an existing VQA for solving systems of linear equations\, and its quantum-inspired fully classical counterpart—as the key component within a larger minimum map Newton solver for a complementarity-based rigid body contact model. Using each algorithm\, we demonstrate that this solver accurately depicts the dynamics of the model system’s rigid spherical bodies as they collide. These results indicate that quantum and quantum-inspired linear algebra algorithms may provide a satisfactory alternative to standard linear algebra solvers for modeling certain physical systems.

A reception will immediately follow the talk.\n\nThe research area of metamaterials has captured the imagination of scientists and engineers for over two decades by allowing unprecedented control of electromagnetic fields. Extreme field manipulation has been made possible by the wide range of material properties that can be attained through fine structuring and texturing. Research in metamaterials has resulted in devices which overcome the diffraction limit and even render objects invisible. Metasurfaces\, surfaces whose intricate patterns dictate their electromagnetic properties\, have led to low-profile optical devices and ultra-thin antennas. Unlike conventional field-shaping devices (e.g.\, lenses in prescription eye glasses or magnifying glasses) that require thickness to manipulate electromagnetic waves through interference\, metasurfaces manipulate electromagnetic waves across negligible thicknesses through surface interactions. In this talk\, I will describe my journey in this area of research\, from its very start 25 years ago to the present day. I will explain what metamaterials/metasurfaces are and how circuit analogies can be used to design them. I will discuss the promise they hold and how their field-transforming properties are forcing a complete rethinking of electromagnetic and optical design.\n\nBio\n\nAnthony Grbic is a Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. His research spans electromagnetics\, microwave engineering\, circuits and optics. He has made pioneering contributions to the theory and development of electromagnetic metamaterials and metasurfaces: finely textured electromagnetic structures/surfaces that offer unprecedented wavefront control. His work has included several research firsts in the development of metamaterials and metasurfaces\, including the first practical implementation of a metamaterial superlens that overcomes the resolution limitations of conventional lenses.\nProf. Grbic is the Senior Associate Chair of ECE. He is a Fellow of the IEEE\, and is currently an IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society Distinguished Microwave Lecturer (2022-2025). He served as Associate Editor of the IEEE Antennas and Wireless Propagation Letters and as Vice Chair of Chapter IV of the IEEE Southeastern Michigan section. For his contributions to research\, teaching and service at the University of Michigan\, he has received several awards including the Rackham Henry Russel Award\, the Ernest and Bettine Kuh Distinguished Faculty Scholar Award\, the University of Michigan Faculty Recognition Award\, and the CoE David E. Liddle Research Excellence Award. His external recognitions include a Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists\, an AFOSR YIP Award\, NSF Faculty Career Award\, IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society Outstanding Young Engineer Award\, and a Booker Fellowship from the United States National Committee of the International Union of Radio Science\nAnthony Grbic received the B.A.Sc.\, M.A.Sc.\, and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from the University of Toronto\, Canada\, in 1998\, 2000\, and 2005\, respectively. Since 2006\, he has been a faculty member in the Department of EECS.

I will begin with a brief overview of the key issues in quantum materials and the unique ability of Raman to address them. I will then focus on our recent discovery of a new quasi-particle\, the Axial Higgs Mode via Quantum interference. Here\, we studied a material where the electrons self-organize into a crystal lattice distinct from the material in which they live. This charge density wave has a collective mode\, similar to the optical phonon in standard materials. By carefully monitoring the Raman response for different symmetries\, we revealed quantum interference in the Raman process resulting from the magnetic moment of the Higgs mode of this charge density wave. This demonstrates the power of Raman to reveal the vector properties of a low energy mode and heralds the discovery of the first unconventional charge density wave and multi-component symmetry-breaking transition. Time permitting\, I will discuss our efforts to use quantum materials in biosensing to help prevent the next pandemic.

In this challenging regime\, even standard doubly-robust estimators can be inconsistent. I describe novel approaches which enjoy consistency guarantees for low-dimensional target parameters even though standard approaches fail. For some target parameters\, these guarantees can also be used for inference. Finally\, I will provide my perspective on the broader implications of this work for designing methods which are less sensitive to biases from high-dimensional prediction models.

Suppose f is \"a bit linear\" -- say\, f(x+y)=f(x)+f(y) for 1% of pairs (x\,y). What can you say about f? Must it be closely related to an actually linear function? If so\, how closely?\n\nThis question turns out to be equivalent to asking for good quantitative bounds in the Freiman--Ruzsa theorem\, a foundational result in additive combinatorics. Marton gave a formulation\, equivalent to the statement above\, which she conjectured should have polynomial bounds. I will outline a recent proof of this conjecture.\n\nJoint work with Timothy Gowers\, Ben Green and Terence Tao.

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.

Pinto (School of Social Work) invites audiences to take part in an exhibition that examines his embodied gender states based on his intersecting childhood traumas and life experiences. In \"My Gender States\,\" Pinto shares his deep and abiding grief related to the childhood death of his sister and the subsequent gender embodiments that ensued stemming from the belief that he was his deceased sister. \n\nUsing autoethnography\, Pinto created a one-person play (\"Marília\,\" 2015) and site-specific installation performance (\"The Realm of the Dead\,\" 2022). These works explore the intersecting and shaping layers of childhood traumas\, gender states\, and his life experience—a story of the struggles\, fears\, and accomplishments he experienced as an immigrant to the United States. In \"Realm\,\" audiences circulated around 25 assemblage sculptures created from vintage suitcases and trunks that evoked the cemetery where Pinto’s sister was buried and the literal and figurative baggage that he\, a queer immigrant\, carried with him. \"My Gender States\" is a selection of materials\, images\, and texts from \"Marília\" and \"Realm\" curated to more closely examine the themes of gender and sexuality in these works. Collected are portrayals of Pinto’s gender states\, gender confusion\, gender embodiments\, gender doubt\, and reactions to gender stigma. \n\nRogério M. Pinto (Brazilian\, American\, b. 1965\, Belo Horizonte\, Brazil) is a University Diversity Social Transformation Professor\; Berit Ingersoll-Dayton Collegiate Professor of Social Work\; and Professor of Theatre and Drama\, School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, at the University of Michigan. Pinto uses art-based methods to conduct community-engaged research in the United States and Brazil.\n\nThe photographs used in \"My Gender States\" are by Emerson Granillo (American\, b. 1987)\; David Newton (American\, b. 1993)\; and Nicholas Williams (American\, b. 1994). The \"Realm\" assemblages featured in \"My Gender States\" were conceived by Pinto and designed by him\, in collaboration with Sarah Tanner. \n\n\"My Gender States\" is on display in the Lane Hall Exhibit Space (first floor\, 204 S State St) from January 23\, to August 13\, 2024. The exhibit is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.\n\nHosted by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women’s and Gender Studies Department.

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

Whether designing furniture or developing the ideas for sculpture\, the process has always been the same. Ideas begin as\nscribbled images that are then stretched and refined with CAD software. At its core\, much of the work studies the manipulation of simple geometry. Dunn looks at the form from different forced perspectives – exploding\, augmenting\, slicing\, repeating\, and lighting. This body of work is a study of perception\, sympathy\, hierarchy\, and reality. The “We Are Virus” series is an adaptation from an initial design where it continued to evolve and adapt through manipulation of parts and scale.\n\nPeter Dunn received his BFA from Wayne State University and MFA from University of Michigan.

His new work—created for his exhibition at the Institute for the Humanities Gallery—is personal and abstract. Started as an attempt to paint for himself\, away from the center of things and off at the edges\, they are from the spaces of private thought that slip into existence and just as easily slip away. They come from an internal conversation and contact with the world. \"When I am with them\,\" Riley explains\, \"I feel a tension between the spaces in the works being present but unnamed. The paintings allow me to observe myself looking. I am acutely aware of time.

The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle.

Written across the walls above and around the memorial\, a statement proclaims Anishinaabe rights to the land we stand on: “You are on Anishinaabe Land.”  \n \nPresented alongside are paintings of imagined decolonized landscapes and a symbolic cache of provisions. Future Cache implicitly asks those who have benefited from the legacies of colonization to consider where they stand and where to go from here and seeks to foster a sense of belonging for displaced Indigenous peoples fighting for restitution.\n\nSpecial thanks to the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians\, Margaret Noodin\, and Richard A.

DESCRIPTION:Care in Uncertain Times\n \nAs crises of public health\, economic instability\, authoritarian regimes\, racial injustice\, and climate change spread around the globe\, millions are experiencing distress\, conflict\, uncertainty\, and vulnerability. This troubling combination of experiences is nothing new for Cambodians. Between 1975-1979\, when the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia\, about a quarter of the country’s populations died of infectious diseases\, weapon wounds\, and malnutrition.\n \nThis exhibition brings together more than 80 works of art spanning a millennium to present how the visual culture of Cambodia and its diaspora has evolved in the face of cultural upheaval. Showcasing works from worldwide collections\, including those from some of the foremost members of the Cambodian contemporary art scene\, Angkor Complex allows viewers to encounter the still-fresh scars of a genocide and critically appreciate the strategies evolved to nurture resilience in trying times.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the U-M Office of the Provost\, U-M Office of the President\, National Endowment for the Arts\, Michigan Arts and Culture Council\, Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and U-M Ross School of Business.\n  UID:114750-21833419@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Exhibition,Museum,Public Health,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

How have their perspectives shaped the enduring stories of our history and visions of the past?\n \nYou’re Welcome is a three-part installation and dynamic intervention that exposes the histories and narratives of the land occupied by the University of Michigan and UMMA’s neoclassical building\, Alumni Memorial Hall. A large-scale commission from artist Cannupa Hanska Luger on the exterior of UMMA’s building asks the campus and community to reconsider the memories molded into the Museum’s stone — the perspectives that shaped those traditions and the stories that remain unseen in our facade. This artistic interrogation dissects colonialist norms of monument-making\, explores the roles of buildings in upholding selected cultural systems\, and develops new forms of memorials that center Indigenous perspectives and collaboration to tell fuller stories and histories. \n \nLuger communicates stories of 21st-century Indigeneity\, sovereignty\, and anti-colonialism while offering critical cultural analysis through deep engagements with materials\, environments\, and communities. In addition to the exterior commission\, a gallery exhibition places Luger’s works of art in conversation with objects in UMMA’s collection\, allowing for discussion and thinking on long histories of collecting practices\, environmental degradation\, and the afterlife of colonialism. And\, a monument classroom from nonprofit public art and history studio Monument Lab invites the community to come together and examine how historic structures on the University of Michigan’s campus uphold social and cultural systems and narratives.  \n\nLead support for this project is provided by Teiger Foundation\, the U-M Office of the Provost\, the U-M Office of the President\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, the U-M Marsal Family School of Education\, the U-M Institute for the Humanities\, Michigan Humanities\, and the U-M Arts Initiative.

Collected for each course are objects that address the nature of materiality\, time\, and human interaction in relation to our environments\, our wars\, our relationships\, and our eccentricities. \n \nWorking in collaboration with University faculty\, the works in this exhibition were selected for their capacity to provoke engagement with the guiding questions and themes of their specific courses\, while also offering students inspiration for research and art projects in their areas of study. The exhibition demonstrates some of the diverse and creative ways art plays a central role in learning across the disciplines. It also asks us to consider what we can learn from art objects across an infinite variety of specialties and subject matter.\n \nAs classes begin in Fall of 2021\, you’ll be able to use these pages to explore the collections designed for each course\, dive into the works themselves\, and hear from the professors and students about how they are engaging with art and objects in new ways. Who knows\, maybe you’ll learn something surprising along the way\, too.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, and the Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and the Oakriver Foundation.\n  UID:86001-21795804@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/86001 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Faculty,Museum,Nature,Research,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240205T143837 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240207T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240207T120000 SUMMARY:Presentation:Divisibility of character values of the symmetric group DESCRIPTION:In 2017\, Miller computed the character tables of $S_n$ for all $n$ up to $38$ and looked at various statistical properties of the entries. Characters of symmetric groups take only integer values\, and\, based on his computations\, Miller conjectured that almost all entries of the character table of $S_n$ are divisible by any fixed prime power as $n$ tends to infinity. Previously\, Sound and I proved this conjecture for any fixed prime. In this talk\, I will discuss joint work with Sound that fully resolves it\, and mention some related open problems.\n\n**Note regarding location: The Pillsbury room is located on Floor 4M on the Psychology side of East Hall.

The roughness exponent characterizes the regularity of financial time series without any probabilistic assumptions and coincides with the traditional Hurst parameter for the sample paths of fractional Brownian motion. It was observed empirically in the seminal work by Gatheral\, Jaisson\, and Rosenbaum (2018) that the roughness exponent of realized volatility of many financial time series is rather small.\n\n\n However\, one difficulty in the roughness estimation process for the instantaneous volatility $\sigma_t$ is that the instantaneous volatility is observed only indirectly through its antiderivative\, namely the quadratic variation $\langle\log S \rangle_t$ of the price trajectory $S_t$. To this end\, we introduce a new estimator $\widehat{\mathscr{R}}_n$ for the roughness exponent of the instantaneous volatility that integrates the numerical differentiation of $\langle\log S \rangle_t$ with the estimation of the roughness exponent of the derivative $\sigma_t^2=\frac{d}{dt}\langle\log S \rangle_t$. In this talk\, we will demonstrate the consistency of the estimator $\widehat{\mathscr{R}}_n$ for several classes of Gaussian processes\, including fractional Brownian motion and fractional Ornstein--Uhlenbeck processes. Furthermore\, this talk will highlight the underlying rationale of constructing the estimator $\widehat{\mathscr{R}}_n$\, which is based on the robust approximation of the Faber--Schauder coefficients of $\sigma^2_t$.\n \n\n This talk is based on the joint work with Alexander Schied.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’....

In this presentation\, I will feature important findings from winter weather regime-based studies leveraging precipitation observations from a long-term\, ground-based instrument suite in the Northern Great Lakes region. Realistic estimates of rain and snowfall in weather forecasting and climate models are challenging due to uncertainties in cloud and precipitation parameterization schemes. Additionally\, remote-sensing observations require assumptions about hydrometeor microphysical and radiative properties. High temporal resolution\, multi-instrument observations of clouds and precipitation can help better constrain processes in models and refine retrieval assumptions\, leading to more accurate quantification of accumulation. I will highlight the advantage of utilizing long-term observations to examine key physical and dynamical precipitation processes through the lens of regime partitioning. Precipitation regimes are determined using observations of macrophysical and microphysical properties\, large-scale environmental conditions\, and thermodynamic profile characteristics. Key findings demonstrate that regime-dependent characteristics of precipitation lead to distinct differences in frequency\, intensity\, and phase\, microphysical properties\, and overall accumulation. Additionally\, I will demonstrate how winter precipitation regimes in the Northern Great Lakes region are tied to significant seasonal and subseasonal\, synoptic\, and thermodynamic conditions such as atmospheric blocking and anomalous moisture transport (atmospheric rivers).

In this talk\, we discuss how the axion's compact field space leads to interesting interactions with topological defects\, specifically monopoles and strings. In the case of monopoles\, we show that\, due to the Witten effect\, axions interacting with abelian gauge fields generate a potential for the axion from loops of magnetic monopoles\, and discuss a simple phenomenological example where this potential is the dominant contribution to the axion mass. In the case of strings\, we discuss superconductivity from massless chiral excitations along the string. We show that bulk fermions do not need to become massless in the core of the string for there to be trapped massless excitations\, and explore the counterintuitive phase structure of these zero modes\, which become less localized to the string as the mass is increased.

Quinn\nWednesday\, February 7\, 2024\n1:00 - 2:00 p.m. ET\nFree\, registration required to obtain login information\n\nEvent link:\nhttps://positiveorgs.bus.umich.edu/events/jerks-die-alone-how-to-create-new-worlds-now/\n\nPositive Links:\nThe Positive Links Speaker Series\, presented by Michigan Ross’ Center for Positive Organizations\, offers inspiring and practical science-based strategies to build and bolster thriving organizations. Attendees learn from leading positive organizational scholars and connect with our community of academics\, students\, staff\, and leaders.\n\nAbout the talk:\nFear is an emotion. So is loneliness. The dread of social isolation is ever with us. It can influence imagination and logic\, producing strategies that result in increased loneliness and spiraling patterns of social decay. In organizations\, people at every level live in fear. Apprehensive authority figures use rational persuasion to call distrusting employees to optimal performance. The result is increased anxiety\, inauthenticity\, silos of self-interest\, and spiraling patterns of corporate decay. In 2019 Anjan Thakor and I published a book called The Economics of Higher Purpose. Since that time\, we have participated in many conversations with people trying to create organizations of optimal performance. In this presentation\, I will draw from science\, and from the most sacred moments in these conversations regarding higher purpose. I will share a set of micro-messages designed to infuse you with increased positivity\, increased consciousness\, and increased courage. My hope is to improve how you live and how you die.\n\nStudent Watch Party: Watch this streamed session together with other students for an in-person community experience followed by a structured discussion about how to put insights from Positive Links into practice. Registration for the Student Watch Party is included as an option when registering for this session of Positive Links.\n\nAbout Quinn:\nRobert E. Quinn is the Margaret Elliot Tracy Collegiate Professor Emeritus at the University of Michigan\, Ross School of Business. His work focuses on purpose\, leadership\, culture\, and change. He is one of the co-founders of the field of Positive Organizational Scholarship and of the Center for Positive Organizations. He has published extensively and loves teaching. He has 45 years of experience in helping organizations to change.\n\nHost:\nMonica Worline\, Faculty Director of Engaged Learning and Innovation\, Center for Positive Organizations\n\nPositive Links Speaker Series Sponsors:\nThe Center for Positive Organizations thanks Sanger Leadership Center\, Tauber Institute for Global Operations\, and Samuel Zell & Robert H. Lurie Institute for Entrepreneurial Studies for their support of the 2023-24 Positive Links Speaker Series.\n\nPositive Links Series Promotional Partners:\nAdditionally\, we thank Ann Arbor SPARK and the Managerial and Organizational Cognition (MOC) Division of the Academy of Management for their Positive Links Speaker Series promotional partnerships.

In this talk\, I will propose a new \"temperature inversion\" (TI) estimator to detect this effect. I will show that the estimator is unbiased to foregrounds (CIB\, tSZ\, kSZ). This is a big advantage over the traditional “quadratic estimator” for the patchy screening which is biased by foregrounds and CMB lensing. I will then present the first detection of the patchy screening effect through cross-correlation of the Atacama Cosmology Telescope and Planck satellite CMB data\, and unWISE galaxies. This measurement\, exceeding 7-sigma in significance\, directly probes the distribution of electrons around these galaxies. I will discuss the prospects of this technique to constrain galaxy evolution models. Finally\, I will present a vision for some of the exciting science opportunities to come in the coming decade.

They received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Wayne State University and an MFA at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC). Nour’s work as a visual artist and curator is rooted in a social practice exploring structures of naturalization as they manifest within bodies\, built environments\, and communities. Photographic self-portraiture\, collaboration\, and space making intersect in the interpretation and dissemination of their experience coming home to their body and the world as a trans-masculine queer immigrant. By reconsidering the right to look\; they renegotiate the contract between photographer\, sitter and viewer\, here the paradoxes of representation\, access\, and privacy collide.\n\nKeene Theater\, Residential College UID:117911-21840180@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/117911 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Amas,American Culture,Arab,arab american studies,Arab And Muslim American Studies,Arabic,Art,artists,artists and curators,arts,Culture,Department Of American Culture,Diversity,Free,immigration,LGBT,Talk LOCATION: CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240222T123229 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240207T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240207T163000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:2025 J.P.

This thermal origin implies an interaction between DM and Standard Model (SM) particles\, and thus the rich possibility that it may be produced via accelerated beams. \n\nDespite a broad program of LHC searches for DM candidates above the GeV scale\, important blind spots remain for beyond-the-SM particles with compressed mass spectra: a generic feature of many of the simplest DM models. I will discuss how the CMS Experiment is enabling new searches in this space through the reconstruction of ultra-low-energy leptons\, and how new paradigms for real-time data analysis will open even greater possibilities for Dark Sector searches at the HL-LHC. Lastly I will introduce the capabilities and plans of the Light Dark Matter eXperiment (LDMX)\, a electron beam fixed-target setup at SLAC\, that will test key benchmarks of sub-GeV DM by leveraging LHC technologies.

For these applications\, the plasma is typically generated by injecting an energetic e-beam into a low pressure gas along an applied magnetic field. The B-field helps confine the e-beam propagating through the reactor. An applied electric field across the B-field enables control of the ion flux to the substrate (wafer) at the periphery of the plasma. The ability of e-beam plasma sources with crossed electric and magnetic (ExB) fields to selectively produce ions and reactive species with a uniform flux of low energy particles to the wafer makes them at-tractive for low damage processing of materials. Since e-beams efficiently ionize molecular gases at sub-mTorr pressures\, they were recently proposed for airbreathing plasma thrusters at very Low Earth Orbits (70-200 km). In this talk\, I will review concepts for e-beam generated LTP systems and their applications. I will outline key plasma processes\, including plasma generation\, cross-field diffusion and beam-plasma interactions. I will discuss challenges in control of characteristic instabilities\, fluxes and energy distribution functions of electrons and ions in e-beam generated ExB plasmas. \n\nAbout the Speaker:\nYevgeny Raitses is a Principal Research Physicist at the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) with expertise in experimental plasma physics. His more than 200 publications are on physics of crossed-field plasma devices\, plasma-surface interactions\, low temperature plasma and its applications to synthesis and processing of nanomaterials\, and plasma diagnostics. Raitses received his PhD in Aerospace Engineering from Technion-Israel Institute of Technology in 1997. He joined PPPL in 1998. His current research interests include e-beam generated magnetized plasmas\, advanced plasma propulsion\, and plasma diagnostics for semiconductor manufacturing. Dr. Raitses leads several projects and initiatives at PPPL including the DOE-Princeton Collaborative Low Temperature Plasma Research Facility (PCRF\, http://pcrf.pppl.gov)\, advanced plasma propulsion physics (http://htx.pppl.gov)\, plasma-based nanosynthesis and nanofabrication of materials (http://nano.pppl.gov). Raitses is an associate fellow of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronauts and Fellow of the American Physical Society. Among many honors\, Raitses received PPPL’s Kaul Foundation Prize for Excellence in Plasma Physics Research and Technology Development in 2019.\n\nThis is a hybrid event.

In this talk\, we export this into algebraic geometry by proving an analogous claim in the non-A^1-invariant stable motivic homotopy theory of Annala-Hoyois-Iwasa. Besides recovering many Poincaré duality type results\, it has quite interesting consequences for the behavior of the A^1-colocalization functor R. Namely\, R is a way of turning a cohomology theory into an A^1-invariant one without changing the on smooth projective varieties. Using this observation\, we can prove the independence of logarithmic cohomology groups from the choice of good compactification\, and that certain cohomology groups are birational invariants.

Born and raised on the Midwestern plains\, Carlisle is a product of the punk-to-folk music pipeline that's long fueled frustrated young men looking to resist. After falling for the rich ballads and tunes of the Ozarks\, where he now lives\, he began examining the full spectrum of American musical history. This insatiable stylistic diversity is obvious in his wildly raucous live performances\, where songs range from sardonic trucker-ballads like \"Vanlife\" to the heartbreaking queer waltz \"Life on the Fence\,\" to an existential talkin' blues about a panic attack in Walmart's aisle five. With guitar\, fiddle\, button-box\, banjo\, harmonicas\, rhythm-bones\, and Willi's booming baritone\, this is bona-fide populist folk music in the tradition of cowboys\, frontier fiddlers\, and tall-tale tellers. With a quick wit and big sing-alongs\, these folk songs bring us a step closer to breaking down our divides.\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4515/4516 for more detail.
