Through research\, narratives\, demographic data\, and a variety of visual and published materials\, explore multifaceted aspects of mixed race heritage with insights from many perspectives.\n\nThe 2020 U.S. Census illuminated a 276 percent increase in individuals who identify as \"two or more races\" since 2010. In recognition of the growing numbers of mixed race-identifying people at the University of Michigan\, throughout the country\, and across the globe\, we're excited to unveil this new exhibit — a unique exploration of changing demographics and intersectional identities.\n\n[The Hatcher Library will be closed December 21 to January 1.] UID:121281-21846130@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/121281 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Free,Library LOCATION:Hatcher Graduate Library - Clark Library (2nd floor) CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230915T170734 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240418T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240418T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:CCPS Exhibition. Modernist Glass from the Polish Past DESCRIPTION:The glass in this rare collection represents the work of renowned Polish glass artists and designers created between 1960 and 1980. Known as Polskie szkło artystyczne (Polish art glass)\, the works were produced in glass factories in southern Poland and are a feature of many homes throughout Central Europe. The glass masters were trained in schools of art and design and many achieved international fame during their lifetimes. \n\nThe collectors\, Endi Poskovic and his wife Julie Anne Visco\, began acquiring the glass in 2015-16 while Endi was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. Scouring flea markets\, antique shops\, and websites\, they continue to acquire pieces and build the collection to this day. We are grateful to them for making this remarkable exhibit possible at CCPS and WCEE.\n\nOrganized by the Copernicus Center for Polish Studies\, this exhibition is co-sponsored by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design and Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia.\n\nLearn more about the exhibition and the artists at https://myumi.ch/8eVrM\n\nThe exhibit opens on September 15\, 2023 in 1010 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor.

Camera as Passport: The Ship of Photographers DESCRIPTION:Starting in 1933 when Hitler and the Nazis came to power\, a cadre of European Jews—German\, Polish\, Hungarian\, Austrian\, French—discovered that a camera could be their passport\, first out of Germany and then out of Europe. Some of these women and men had been planning one type of career—lawyer\, journalist\, painter\, musician—but then realized that they needed to find another way to earn a living. Taking photographs presented a sufficiently malleable opportunity that not only allowed them to leave Germany and then Europe but also to have a means to sustain themselves in foreign countries where they did not necessarily speak the language.\n \n They did\, however\, mobilize the visual language of photography. For a number of these figures\, forced migration became an asset during the golden age of photojournalism wherein their portable services were employed to supply picture stories on the move and around the world. Many of these Jews became influential photographers\, shaping how their contemporaries saw the world. Looking back on their work\, we can see how they have influenced our understanding of the modern world even as we can recognize their photographs as a significant component of modern Jewish visual culture.\n \n Of the dozens of photographers who fled Europe\, eight escaped on a single ship. The S. S. Winnipeg sailed from Marseille\, France on May 7\, 1941. Germany had already conquered both eastern and western Europe and was poised to invade the Soviet Union. The United States was not yet in the war. Among the 750 refugees aboard were photographers from Hungary\, Belgium\, France\, and Germany: Ilse Bing\, Josef Breitenbach\, Boris Lipnitsky\, Charles Leirens\, Yolla Niclas\, Fred Stein\, Monie Tannen\, and Ylla (Camilla Henriette Koffler). During lifeboat drills\, they discovered each other. Some of them narrowly escaped Vichy France under the auspices of the American journalist Varian Fry and the New York-based Emergency Rescue Committee that helped so many Jewish and anti-Fascist artists get out of Europe in the nick of time.\n \n This exhibit introduces the University of Michigan to this intrepid group as exemplary case studies of the wide range of European photographers who used their cameras as passports to other worlds. It focuses first on their European experiences pre-emigration before turning to their escape from Europe on the S. S. Winnipeg (with three of them taking photos on board the ship). The exhibit concludes with examples of some of their initial photographic reactions to the new world\, seeing it through European eyes.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

In this exhibit\, internationally renowned Filipino artist Cian Dayrit acts as a counter-cartographer\, reclaiming mapmaking as an emancipatory activity.\n\nDayrit’s artworks\, embroidered on textiles or painted over collages of colonial-era maps\, plot the extraction of natural resources\, land grabbing\, and dispossession and displacement in his native Philippines. At the same time\, their resistant lines summon new imaginaries out of the overlaps between places and memories.\n\nDayrit’s practice is critically and practically informed by the narratives of Filipino communities. Items exhibited alongside his artwork are the result of map-drawing workshops the artist has convened with rural\, urban\, and indigenous communities across the Philippines. Propositions to Progress invites you to engage in the collaborative endeavor to activate alternative territories from the ground up.\n\nCian Dayrit is an interdisciplinary artist exploring colonialism and ethnography\, archaeology\, history\, and mythology. Dayrit subverts the language of the state\, museum\, and military to visualize the contradictions on which these institutions are built. He studied at the University of the Philippines.

Its youth group organizers aimed to bolster Palestinian unity across the systemic barriers — colonial divides\, military checkpoints\, walls\, etc. — that fragment the lives of people living in Palestine. \n\nSouq Stories: Gaza Lives brings us to present-day Gaza\, sharing the stories of\, and images captured by\, young journalists and photographers who have continued to document the realities of life in Palestine. It also honors one among them\, Fouad Abu Khammash\, who was killed in January 2024 in an Israeli bomb attack on Gaza.\n\n< The exhibit includes images of people suffering the aftermath of the ongoing violence. >\n\nThis exhibit was curated by Souq Stories team members Shareef Sarhan and Waed Abbas in partnership with U-M students Amir Marshi\, Zainab Hakim\, Mariam Odeh\, and Vivian M. Nguyen. It’s offered in conjunction with this year’s Palestine Awareness Week\, an annual series of educational events related to Palestinian history\, culture\, and politics. Presented in association with Insaniyyat: Society of Palestinian Anthropologists.

Both Malallah and Karim were significantly influenced by their mentors during and after their training in Iraq\, and continue to share their work and ideas with a new generation today.\n\nIn the United States\, Iraq is typically spoken about in a passive position: colonized\, under despotic rule\, occupied. Post-occupied. Through connections between mentors and students\, and students who became mentors to new students\, Iraqi artists have been a force for anti-colonialism\, claiming their heritage and its future for themselves.\n\nView the exhibit Monday-Friday in the Fine Arts Library\, Tappan Hall\, 855 S.

It considers the process of germination as a site for the cross-pollination of ideas from diverse disciplines around the future of the built environment. \n\nAbout the artist:\nSusan Goethel Campbell creates multi-disciplinary work that considers the contemporary landscape to be an emergent system where nature\, culture\, and the engineered environment are indistinguishable from one another. Central to her practice is the collection\, documentation\, and observation of seasonal change and ephemera in both natural and artificial environments. Her work is realized in several formats\, including installation\, video\, prints\, and drawings\, as well as projects that engage communities to look at local and global environments.\n\nCampbell earned an MFA in printmaking from Cranbrook Academy of Art. Her work has been exhibited internationally in Belgium\, Germany\, Switzerland\, and Slovenia and nationally throughout the US\, including the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, Queens Art Museum\, Crystal Bridges Museum\, Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit\, Grand Rapids Art Museum\, the Detroit Institute of Arts\, The Drawing Center\, and The International Print Center New York. In 2009 she was one of 18 artists selected for the inaugural Kresge Artist Fellowship.\n\nCampbell has been awarded residencies at the Banff Centre for the Arts\, the Flemish Center for Graphic Arts\, the Jentel Foundation\, Beisinghoff Print Residency\, and the Print Research Institute of North Texas. She taught studio art for 15 years at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit and has been a visiting artist in numerous institutions in the United States and abroad. Her work is in the collection of the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, New York Public Library\, Detroit Institute of Arts\, Toledo Museum of Art\, and the University of Michigan Special Collections Library.\n\nThis project is made possible by a grant from the Mellon Foundation as part of the Institute for the Humanities' multi-year High Stakes Art initiative.

During this time of swift cultural transformation\, Chinese artists embraced the immediacy of photography to document the changes around them as well as their own thoughts and actions as they shifted their focus away from the collective to prioritize self-expression. This program will bring together key figures in the development of experimental photography in China to look back at these decades and discuss how they came to understand photography as a conceptual art form and the impact of this understanding on their communities and artistic practices.\n\nThis program was initiated by The Triune Brain collective and is presented in partnership with the University of Michigan Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies and the Hirshhorn Museum.\n\nInterpreting provided by Eriksen Translations.

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).

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. 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:114750-21833480@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.

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:86001-21795865@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:20240223T151955 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240418T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240418T113000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Disability Awareness and Inclusion DESCRIPTION:Course details and registration are available on the Organizational Learning website.

Understanding where they occur in space and time is fundamental to addressing those declines and understanding other attributes to their life history. Geolocators attached to individual birds and range maps summarizing the seasonal distributions of species provide two sources of information to estimate migration distance and have revealed important discoveries about the migration journey. Studying migration distance is important because it can influence the timing\, speed\, and duration of migration\, reproduction\, and more. However\, it is not clear how closely aligned the estimates of migration distance are between these two different methods. For this reason\, I compared the migration distance from geolocators and range maps of 24 species of North American passerine birds. Both geolocators and range maps can be a powerful consideration to determine conservation strategies throughout birds’ migration routes.

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:84303-21621263@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:20240503T123135 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240418T103000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240418T110000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:A recruiter’s guide to preparing for your tech internship DESCRIPTION:On April 18 at 10:30AM PT\, join Handshake’s internships lead and senior business recruiter Stephanie Wharton for a session all about how to prepare for your tech internship.

This talk will be recorded for later viewing.\n\nAbstract: The US political arena is a bleak mix of distressing and aggravating\, particularly in the current highly polarized climate\, but that only increases the need to honestly and scientifically understand the forces at play in ideological space. This talk will share some recent and ongoing attempts to visualize and understand the current political landscape\, as well as some quantitative patterns in political psychology and the modern information ecosystem. These recently-gathered data inform a mechanistic dynamical model of ideological drift\, allowing theory to extrapolate the complex implications of micro-scale data to macro-scale outcomes---while iteratively improving and suggesting further data-gathering efforts to corner remaining uncertainty. The first wave of results from this perspective provide some remarkable insights\, providing some hope of understanding and productively informing political messaging and algorithmic design for a more reasonable political future.

Please attend in real time.\n\nThis talk uses Aichi Prefecture's Atsumi Peninsula and the waters that surround it as a lens for understanding post-WWII democratization efforts on a micro scale in a region far removed from the oversight of General Douglas MacArthur\, Supreme Commander of the Allied Powers in Tokyo. Citizen efforts in the late 1940s and early 1950s to combat the power of entrenched local political and economic bosses will be considered in light of disputes regarding seaweed harvesting rights\, opposition to the requisitioning of local land for a Self Defense Forces Shooting Range\, and the reconstruction of infrastructure following the 1953 Ise Bay Typhoon.\n \n Emer O'Dwyer is director of the East Asian Studies Program at Oberlin College and associate professor of history and East Asian studies. She specializes in 20th-century Japanese history with research interests in imperialism\, democracy\, and the post-war Allied Occupation. She is currently working on a history of “boss rule” in Japan from the wartime era through the beginning of the high-growth era in the mid-1950s.\n \n *This lecture is made possible with the generous support of the U.S. Department of Education Title VI grant.*\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at wugou@umich.edu.

To safeguard these species and prevent further losses\, it is imperative to deepen our comprehension of taxonomy and evolutionary relationships\, thereby establishing effective conservation priorities. Over the past 15 years\, I have developed a research program in Fish Evolution & Systematics (Fish-ES) aimed at unraveling the forces driving the diversification and evolution of marine fishes\, with emphasis on Gadiformes (codfishes\, hakes\, rattails\, and allies) and other economically significant species. In my presentation\, I will showcase several past and ongoing projects incorporating classic and cutting-edge morphological\, ecological\, geochemical\, and genomics techniques. These multidisciplinary approaches can enhance our understanding of the evolutionary histories of complex taxa\, offering invaluable insights crucial for their conservation and management.

As our understanding of fundamental immunology and biotechnological methodology accumulates\, this combined knowledge can be leveraged to engineer immunomodulators with the aim of rationally manipulating the immune response. One potentially transformative approach involves engineering microorganisms to produce potent immunostimulatory agents or execute complex immunological tasks. Indeed\, research in synthetic biology has led to the creation of biological matter with profoundly useful immune functions\, including bacteria and bacteria-derived products that perform multistep immune functions such as presenting antigen to and co-stimulating helper T cells in a specific manner\, or providing integrated signals to B cells to induce affinity maturation and isotype switching during antibody production. Along these lines\, our group has developed technologies for custom remodeling of bacterial cell surfaces with protein and small-molecule motifs (for example\, carbohydrates or reactive functional groups) that become packaged in released outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). In this seminar\, I will discuss our efforts to engineer OMVs for delivering carbohydrate antigens to the immune system and provoking robust antibody responses to these notoriously recalcitrant antigens. Our unique ability to boost immunological responses to carbohydrates is enabling the creation of a new class of conjugate vaccines for targeting glycans in disease as well as the discovery of high-affinity antibodies that specifically recognize carbohydrates of interest\, in particular tumor-associated carbohydrate antigens. We anticipate that the synthetic immunology tools developed herein will open the door to new glycan-based therapies with the potential to treat or prevent a diverse range of diseases including autoimmune disorders\, cancer\, and infectious diseases.\n\nBio:\nMatthew P.

As stars emit a wide spectrum of radiation and particles\, these emissions can profoundly influence the formation\, evolution\, composition\, and overall fate of a planet's atmosphere. This discussion bridges the gap between astrophysical phenomena and planetary science\, highlighting how solar/stellar winds\, eruptions\, and high-energy light contribute to atmospheric erosion\, induce chemical reactions\, and potentially drive the dynamics of weather and aurorae on exoplanets. Key to our exploration are systems like TRAPPIST-1\, which are challenging our understanding of atmospheric retention under intense stellar activity\, and the nearby Sun-like stars that will be targeted for habitable planets by the Habitable Worlds Observatory. In this talk\, we will explore recent observations and theoretical models that examine interaction mechanisms between stellar emissions and exoplanet atmospheres. We will also discuss several future space missions that will provide much needed additional stellar data. By understanding the complex dynamics of these critical yet often overlooked interactions\, we can better understand observed exoplanet demographics\, new JWST exoplanet spectra\, and predict which exoplanets might harbor conditions suitable for life as we know it.

When the graph is chordal\, we show that the corresponding statistical model has maximum likelihood degree one\; when the graph is a cycle on n vertices\, we show that the corresponding statistical model has maximum likelihood degree equal to the nth Eulerian number. These results support our conjecture that the spanning tree generating function is a homaloidal polynomial if and only if the graph is chordal. We also provide an algebraic formulation for the defining equations of these models. I will begin by introducing graphical models and homaloidal polynomials (background knowledge in algebraic statistics is not required).

For rapidly decaying solutions\, the inverse scattering method provides a powerful tool for understanding their dynamics. However\, due to the requirement of rapid decay\, inverse scattering techniques cannot be used to analyze even the set of all finite energy solutions. In this talk\, I will survey some recent work on the dynamics of solutions to integrable PDEs in translation-invariant spaces. In particular\, I will discuss several optimal well-posedness results obtained in collaboration with Rowan Killip\, Maria Ntekoume\, and Monica Visan.

Our Graduate Scholars conduct research in collaboration with our six DISCO Network principal investigators: André Brock (Georgia Institute of Technology)\, Catherine Knight Steele (University of Maryland)\, Lisa Nakamura (University of Michigan)\, Rayvon Fouché (Northwestern University)\, Remi Yergeau (University of Michigan)\, and Stephanie Dinkins (Stony Brook University). \n\nIn the 2023-2024 academic year\, we have ten DISCO Graduate Scholars: S. Nisa Asgarali-Hoffman\, Jasmine Banks\, Pruneah Kim\, Pratiksha Menon\, Hagar Masoud\, Tynesha McCullers\, Elise Nagy\, Ria Rajan\, Jessica Rucker\, and David Tortolini. Each DISCO Graduate Scholar will give an eight minute “lightning talk” on their research affiliated with their DISCO Network lab. \n\nGROUP 1: 4:00 - 4:50 PM\n\n“Drifting through the Technosphere” with Ria Rajan (Stony Brook University)\nAs a digital nomad\, I am deeply interested in the present future—specifically\, the cyber future. This is the future I feel most primed for. When I consider this future\, I am self-reflexive about my relationship with cyberspace and the embodied technologies of our daily lives.\n\nGenerationally\, a post-colonial millennial\, who grew up on the move through changing environments and shifting landscapes\, weaving in and out of times and spaces is my modus operandi. This has played a significant role in shaping my relationship to places\, duration and traces.\n\nMovement and stasis are the primary lenses through which I process the world and continue\nto be a source of inspiration and inquiry. This idea of mobility has led to a creative practice that is inherently itinerant and iterative\, with a focus on intangible\, ephemeral and transient experiences –- IRL and online. For this talk\, I will address how my practice-based research highlights ontological modes of production and hybrid media objects. \n\n“BPG[Dot]Com: An Examination of Black Grief and Commemorative Practices in a Digital Context” with Tynesha McCullers (North Carolina State University) \n\"Death is a part of the human experience\; it is inevitable that individuals will experience loss throughout their lifetime so finding ways to grieve and cope will be necessary. Death is a part of the human experience\; it is inevitable that individuals will experience loss throughout their lifetime so finding ways to grieve and cope will be necessary. Cultural rituals and practices surrounding death\, grief and commemoration vary and are shaped by several social positions of the bereaved including religion/spirituality\, race\, gender\, class\, and nationality. Prior to the inception of the internet and in the days before social networking sites (SNSs)\, death and grief were managed based on proximity to the deceased. Today\, the internet has shifted not only the ways people experience dying (Andersson\, 2017) but also how the bereaved cope with death (Willis & Ferrucci\, 2017). Kania-Lundholm (2019) writes “media communication technologies and social media…have contributed to the expansion of death and mourning” so they are no longer simply private but now public and sometimes global events. In a society that is becoming more technologically advanced\, the shift from institutionalized commemorative rituals to personal rhetorical modes of communicating and coping with loss online\, is more common. Therefore\, mourning on social media platforms can be viewed as an extension to various other sociocultural practices as they relate to loss\, grief\, and commemoration.\n\nPrevious research on the use of digital technologies to express grief and cope with loss\, centers itself around six themes – thanatechnology (Sofka\, 1997)\, fans grieving celebrity deaths (Sanderson & Cheong\, 2010)\, cultural expectations in communicating grief (Boss & Carnes\, 2012\; Prigerson & Jacobs\, 2001)\, online grief practices (Lingel\, 2013)\, (in)appropriate etiquette for sharing and reacting to death (Wagner\, 2018) and affordances/limitations of SNS policies for bereaved users (Moyer & Enck\, 2018). While current scholarship on death\, grief\, and commemoration via digital technology is ongoing and presented in a universalizable way\, minimal attention has been given to the roles that demographics play in death and mourning in technology-mediated culture. In an effort to extend the scholarship on death\, grief\, and digital commemoration practices\, this project broadly asks “how have communication technologies impacted the grief and mourning practices of Black people”. By examining Black people’s uses of communication technologies and social media platforms\, in their grief and commemorative rituals\, we can gain a better understanding of ways to support them as they cope with losses that are inevitable.\"\n\n“미역국 (miyeokguk) asmr: Recipes as Ritual in the Computational Present” with pruneah Kim (University of Michigan) \nIn this talk\, I hope to briefly speak on an ongoing project\, titled 미역국 (miyeokguk) asmr\, that investigates the sociopolitical possibilities that open up when we turn to the repetitive but always different motions of ritual in our computational present. If digital capitalism is predicated on prediction\, where does ritual take us? Drawing from Romi Ron Morrison and Loren Britton’s[1] (2021) attention to ritual over prediction\, I want to know what happens when we position recipes as a practice of ritual. Where does this take us? What if we attend to recipes as a mapping of movement\, a choreography\, instead of a means to an end? I’m especially interested in playing around with the genre of recipe\, precisely because of our taken for granted framing of them as a predictive practice. So much so that recipes operate as the base analogy to coding and algorithm\, a full disservice to recipes in my opinion. The attention is paid to the product. And we fail to notice and value the already present movements\, encounters\, intentions\, history\, intellect\, impulses and sociality that occurs around it. My hunch here is that there is a lot to gain in noticing these things. \n\nThis project is part of my broader dissertation research that aims to explore the worldbuilding possibilities of food in BIPOC communities\, especially within queer Asian diasporic communities in North America.\n\n“‘The arms are as long as printed exclamation marks!!’ Women’s Health DIY Print Cultures\, 1970-2016” with Elise Nagy (University of Michigan) \nThis presentation takes up women’s health DIY print cultures of the 1970s and 2010s. I explore the self-representational visual/textual artifacts therein as a kind of “reproductive technology” in their own right. I suggest that these texts raise a particular set of questions and possibilities related to women’s material embodiment\, reproductive capacity\, and anti-determinist claims\, staked on the page and on the body. Primarily glancing off of the earliest edition of what would become Our Bodies\, Ourselves\, then titled Women and Their Bodies: A Course (1970)\, by the Boston Women’s Health Book Collective\; Mira Bellwether’s 2010 zine titled Fucking Trans Women\; and micha cárdenas’ 2016 piece “Pregnancy: Reproductive Futures in Trans of Color Feminism\,” this brief presentation explores how each of these texts can be better understood in conversation with what Michelle Murphy has theorized as the “protocol feminism” of feminist self help: “a form of feminism concerned with the recrafting and distribution of technosocial practices by which the care and study of sexed living-being could be conducted.”\n\nGROUP 2: 4:50 - 5:20 PM\n\n“If You Know\, You Know: Black Digital Culture and the Right to Opacity” with Jasmine Banks (University of Michigan)\nThis research delves into how Black users navigate the complexities of the digital\, leveraging the existence of Black digital spaces that are cultural hubs for everyday discourse and camaraderie\, expression\, and community while challenges and systemic biases still permeate these environments. Drawing on focus group discussions with 19 Black social media users\, I examine the discursive formation “if you know\, you know” a sentiment\, a feeling of just knowing that a meme\, a hashtag\, or online moment was/is a Black cultural moment. I investigate this phenomenon through the lens of opacity—the deliberate choice to eschew transparency as a means of navigating the digital landscape. I discuss how users leverage opacity to foster community bonds\, assert their right to privacy\, and maintain control over their cultural identity within the digital sphere.\n\n“Babri retold: rewriting popular memory through Islamophobic humor” with Pratiksha Thangam Menon (University of Michigan) \nThe strategic mobilization of humor by Hindutva (Hindu nationalist) groups online contributes to the mainstreaming of supremacist ideologies that inform extremist behavior. Analyzing the social media recontextualizations of the 1992 Babri Masjid demolition as case studies\, this talk examines how online instantiations of Islamophobic humor contribute to the Hindutva revisioning of popular memory. This talk expands the understanding of how Islamophobia is normalized through the shifting affective framing of the Babri Masjid demolition\, from shame to schadenfreude\, from tragedy to comedy\, and from a threat to Indian secularism to a necessary act of paternalistic disciplining. Studying these shifts through specific examples of Islamophobic humor builds upon previous insights into: (1) the affective regimes by which Islamophobic ideas are made palatable to a wider audience\, (2) discriminatory speech as an act of pleasure\, and (3) how both of these work toward the reworking of popular memory in service of the Hindutva political project.\n“Keep it Black\, Keep it Brief\, and Keep it Online: Lessons from a Pedagogical Influencer” with Jessica A. Rucker (University of Maryland-College Park)\nUsing Andre Brock’s methodological intervention\, Critical Technocultural Discourse Analysis (CTDA)\, in conjunction with the theories and conceptual frameworks of the Black Radical Tradition\, Black Liberation Pedagogy\, Digital Black Feminims\, Black cyberculture\, and Oscillating Networked Publics\, I ask How does Parking Lot Pimpin’ create openings for audiences to learn about Black life and both understand and take part in the Black Freedom Struggle? My findings\, which draw from Parking Lot Pimpin’ as a case study\, document how Bogues skillfully mobilizes digital tools\, platforms\, and technologies and effectively educates the public about Black life in ways that thrust forward the Black freedom struggle\, by drawing from and adding to Black archives\, and builds on scholarship from the fields of American Studies\, Black Digital World Making/Black Digital Socialities\, Black Vernacular Cultures and Oral Traditions\, and Critical Race Studies.\n\nGROUP 3: 5:20 PM - 6:00 PM\n\n“What’s in my Digital Cup?: Specialty Coffee Roasters and their Digital Discourses of Flavor” with David Tortolini (Purdue University) \nSpecialty coffee roasters in North America utilize flavor and our senses from a Western-centric perspective and reinforce Western-centric worldviews when they showcase coffees on their websites. They approach the way a cup of coffee tastes\, feels\, is described by using Western-centric ideologies and definitions. The Specialty Coffee Association’s Coffee Flavor Wheel is the primary tool used in the industry. As an accompaniment to how the flavors are shown\, you see some coffee roasters weave flavor into storytelling when they are retelling stories of adventure to describe where the coffee comes from and how they were able to source it. Thus\, coffee roasters use flavor as an identity marker and defining tool of communities and populations outside the West. \n\nIn this talk\, we will explore how colonialism has impacted our senses by examining the digitalization of flavor by specialty coffee roasters in the United States. By analyzing these digital spaces\, we will uncover how flavor is used to define and categorize communities and regions across the globe. Additionally\, we will investigate the consequences of relying on Western-centric ideologies to describe our senses in both digital and physical spaces. \"\n\"Parking Lot Pimpin’\, an online series created by Lynae Vanee Bogues\, unequivocally and unabashedly teaches about contemporary Black life and the histories that shape it by using digital tools and platforms in ways that create multiple openings for audiences to learn about\, understand\, and take part in the modern Black freedom struggle. She creates these openings by teaching in the locations and places where Black publics are\, but where accurate\, credible\, and reliable information is not always: social media platforms. In this study\, I consider how Parking Lot Pimpin’ connects to and builds on a long history of African American history-defending\, truth-telling\, and activist memory-work and demonstrate how Bogues is an example of\, a new theoretical approach which I call\, a pedagogical influencer. A pedagogical influencer is a social media user who leverages their content knowledge and technical expertise to establish credibility across various digitally mediated spaces to educate and teach audiences about specific historical topics through a constellation of repeated words\, phrases\, concepts\, mannerisms\, and gestures within a specific economy\, industry\, or field. \n\n“Wooden Room_Wedding Room” with Hagar Masoud (Stony Brook University) \n\"Wooden Room_Wedding Room is a socially engaged\, multimedia installation project that addresses the traumatic impact of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM). It sheds light on this violent practice\, which involves the non-medical\, ritual removal of external female genitalia\, often without consent\, and is widely seen as a patriarchal instrument to dominate girls' sexuality. FGM is prevalent across Africa\, Asia\, and the Middle East\, rooted in cultural beliefs about femininity and marriageability. The project aims to raise awareness about the physical and emotional pain inflicted by FGM and advocate for its end\, emphasizing the importance of protecting girls' bodily autonomy. \n\nWooden Room_Wedding Room installation reimagines the colonialized interiors of Egyptian middle-class living rooms in a gallery setting\, where narrators share their experiences of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) that occurred in such spaces. The ambiance includes serving Traditional Egyptian tea and tropical fruits.\n\n“Ambiguously Brown: Resisting the Myth of Racial Authenticity in Genetic Ancestry Testing” with S. Nisa Asgarali-Hoffman (University of Maryland-College Park)\nThis study analyzes YouTube videos made by Caribbean content creators in which they reveal the results of their direct-to-consumer ancestry tests. I analyze these reveal videos\, the user comment threads attached to them\, and the role of YouTube in hosting these videos\, to capture the popular discourse around the relationship between genetics and racial identity. By employing Critical Technocultural Discourse Analysis (CTDA)\, I seek to answer questions of how Caribbean content creators discuss racial identity\, and in particular how online discourses of race negotiate\, codify\, or disrupt neoliberal notions of authenticity.\n\nI focus on videos made by creators who specifically identify as being from the Caribbean or of the Caribbean diaspora. Through the lens of Caribbean Existentialism\, I discuss how content creators and audience discussions around racial identities coalesce into a new project of “racial formation” (Omi & Winant\, 2015). I unpack how racial authenticity is being reconstructed and deconstructed in digital spaces and interrogate the ways in which the conceptualization and mobilization of authenticity are intertwined with white supremacy.\n\nAccessibility statement: We strive to make our events accessible to all participants.

Introducing physical symmetries into these systems can decrease the number of available states\, resulting in a smoother energy landscape. In this talk\, I will show how a specific type of symmetry\, namely permutation symmetry in disordered packings of soft spherical particles\, leads to remarkable order in the distribution of basin volumes on the energy landscape. Breaking this symmetry leads to additional\, distinct configurations for arranging the particles\, thus rendering the landscape more rugged. I will present a novel algorithm that uncovers signs of the regularity initially observed in the landscape with intact symmetry\, within the landscape with broken symmetry. The principles discussed in this talk are extendable to various geometrical symmetries in disordered systems.

After that\, I will introduce an equivalent way to define homology with local coefficients that is more algebraic and easier to compute. Finally\, I will present an application of homology of local coefficients by generalizing the Poincare duality to non orientable manifolds.

Winner of four Tony Awards\, *A Little Night Music* has long entranced the world of theatre.\n\nSet in 1900 Sweden\, *A Little Night Music* explores the tangled web of affairs centered around actress Desirée Armfeldt and the men who love her: a lawyer by the name of Fredrik Egerman and the Count Carl-Magnus Malcom. When the traveling actress performs in Fredrik's town\, the estranged lovers' passion rekindles. This sparks a flurry of jealousy and suspicion among Desirée\; Fredrik\; Fredrik's wife\, Anne\; Desirée's current lover\, the Count\; and the Count's wife\, Charlotte. The men and their wives agree to join Desirée and her family for a weekend in the country at Desirée's mother's estate. With everyone in one place\, abundant possibilities for new romances and second chances bring endless surprises.\n\n*A Little Night Music* is full of hilariously witty and heartbreakingly moving moments of adoration\, regret\, and desire. This dramatic musical celebration of love showcases highly trained singers with its harmonically advanced score and masterful orchestrations\, and it includes Sondheim's popular song\, the haunting \"Send in the Clowns.\"\n\nMusic & Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim \nBook by Hugh Wheeler\nDirector Telly Leung\nMusic direction by Catherine A. Walker\n\n*FUN FACTS*: When Sondheim wrote “Send in the Clowns” for original actress Glynis Johns\, who had a distinctive voice but struggled to sustain long passages\, he built in frequent pauses for her to breathe. \n\nAside from Glynis Johns\, many notable actresses portrayed Desirée Armfeldt over the years\, including Judi Dench\, Bernadette Peters\, Catherine Zeta-Jones\, and *Ted Lasso*’s Hannah Waddingham.

The piece is lively and fierce\, incorporating elements of Afro-Caribbean styles with hip hop and femme dance.\n\nReina Kitasato’s *I Offer Prosperity and Eternal Life*\, focuses on the concept of the self in relation to others through the lens of nature. The different stages of life and the evolution of one’s self is shown in the dance. Kitasato’s solo\, *Unseen*\, explores her multicultural background and the difficulties posed by having to navigate two communities while maintaining a sense of self. This is conveyed through a unique storyline and detailed movements.\n\nAnnabella Vidrio’s *Reasons I Now Understand* explores themes of cross-cultural communication\, systems of love\, and acceptance of the unknown. This piece\, comprising both her solo and her group choreography\, is largely inspired by her upbringing in a vibrant Mexican-American household and throughout the dance\, Vidrio incorporates modern techniques and traditional Mexican folkloric dancing. The work is supported in part through the School of Music\, Theatre & Dance’s EXCEL Enterprise Fund and the Arts Initiative's Student Mini Grant.

Camera as Passport: The Ship of Photographers DESCRIPTION:Starting in 1933 when Hitler and the Nazis came to power\, a cadre of European Jews—German\, Polish\, Hungarian\, Austrian\, French—discovered that a camera could be their passport\, first out of Germany and then out of Europe. Some of these women and men had been planning one type of career—lawyer\, journalist\, painter\, musician—but then realized that they needed to find another way to earn a living. Taking photographs presented a sufficiently malleable opportunity that not only allowed them to leave Germany and then Europe but also to have a means to sustain themselves in foreign countries where they did not necessarily speak the language.\n \n They did\, however\, mobilize the visual language of photography. For a number of these figures\, forced migration became an asset during the golden age of photojournalism wherein their portable services were employed to supply picture stories on the move and around the world. Many of these Jews became influential photographers\, shaping how their contemporaries saw the world. Looking back on their work\, we can see how they have influenced our understanding of the modern world even as we can recognize their photographs as a significant component of modern Jewish visual culture.\n \n Of the dozens of photographers who fled Europe\, eight escaped on a single ship. The S. S. Winnipeg sailed from Marseille\, France on May 7\, 1941. Germany had already conquered both eastern and western Europe and was poised to invade the Soviet Union. The United States was not yet in the war. Among the 750 refugees aboard were photographers from Hungary\, Belgium\, France\, and Germany: Ilse Bing\, Josef Breitenbach\, Boris Lipnitsky\, Charles Leirens\, Yolla Niclas\, Fred Stein\, Monie Tannen\, and Ylla (Camilla Henriette Koffler). During lifeboat drills\, they discovered each other. Some of them narrowly escaped Vichy France under the auspices of the American journalist Varian Fry and the New York-based Emergency Rescue Committee that helped so many Jewish and anti-Fascist artists get out of Europe in the nick of time.\n \n This exhibit introduces the University of Michigan to this intrepid group as exemplary case studies of the wide range of European photographers who used their cameras as passports to other worlds. It focuses first on their European experiences pre-emigration before turning to their escape from Europe on the S. S. Winnipeg (with three of them taking photos on board the ship). The exhibit concludes with examples of some of their initial photographic reactions to the new world\, seeing it through European eyes.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

In this exhibit\, internationally renowned Filipino artist Cian Dayrit acts as a counter-cartographer\, reclaiming mapmaking as an emancipatory activity.\n\nDayrit’s artworks\, embroidered on textiles or painted over collages of colonial-era maps\, plot the extraction of natural resources\, land grabbing\, and dispossession and displacement in his native Philippines. At the same time\, their resistant lines summon new imaginaries out of the overlaps between places and memories.\n\nDayrit’s practice is critically and practically informed by the narratives of Filipino communities. Items exhibited alongside his artwork are the result of map-drawing workshops the artist has convened with rural\, urban\, and indigenous communities across the Philippines. Propositions to Progress invites you to engage in the collaborative endeavor to activate alternative territories from the ground up.\n\nCian Dayrit is an interdisciplinary artist exploring colonialism and ethnography\, archaeology\, history\, and mythology. Dayrit subverts the language of the state\, museum\, and military to visualize the contradictions on which these institutions are built. He studied at the University of the Philippines.

Its youth group organizers aimed to bolster Palestinian unity across the systemic barriers — colonial divides\, military checkpoints\, walls\, etc. — that fragment the lives of people living in Palestine. \n\nSouq Stories: Gaza Lives brings us to present-day Gaza\, sharing the stories of\, and images captured by\, young journalists and photographers who have continued to document the realities of life in Palestine. It also honors one among them\, Fouad Abu Khammash\, who was killed in January 2024 in an Israeli bomb attack on Gaza.\n\n< The exhibit includes images of people suffering the aftermath of the ongoing violence. >\n\nThis exhibit was curated by Souq Stories team members Shareef Sarhan and Waed Abbas in partnership with U-M students Amir Marshi\, Zainab Hakim\, Mariam Odeh\, and Vivian M. Nguyen. It’s offered in conjunction with this year’s Palestine Awareness Week\, an annual series of educational events related to Palestinian history\, culture\, and politics.

Both Malallah and Karim were significantly influenced by their mentors during and after their training in Iraq\, and continue to share their work and ideas with a new generation today.\n\nIn the United States\, Iraq is typically spoken about in a passive position: colonized\, under despotic rule\, occupied. Post-occupied. Through connections between mentors and students\, and students who became mentors to new students\, Iraqi artists have been a force for anti-colonialism\, claiming their heritage and its future for themselves.\n\nView the exhibit Monday-Friday in the Fine Arts Library\, Tappan Hall\, 855 S.

It considers the process of germination as a site for the cross-pollination of ideas from diverse disciplines around the future of the built environment. \n\nAbout the artist:\nSusan Goethel Campbell creates multi-disciplinary work that considers the contemporary landscape to be an emergent system where nature\, culture\, and the engineered environment are indistinguishable from one another. Central to her practice is the collection\, documentation\, and observation of seasonal change and ephemera in both natural and artificial environments. Her work is realized in several formats\, including installation\, video\, prints\, and drawings\, as well as projects that engage communities to look at local and global environments.\n\nCampbell earned an MFA in printmaking from Cranbrook Academy of Art. Her work has been exhibited internationally in Belgium\, Germany\, Switzerland\, and Slovenia and nationally throughout the US\, including the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, Queens Art Museum\, Crystal Bridges Museum\, Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit\, Grand Rapids Art Museum\, the Detroit Institute of Arts\, The Drawing Center\, and The International Print Center New York. In 2009 she was one of 18 artists selected for the inaugural Kresge Artist Fellowship.\n\nCampbell has been awarded residencies at the Banff Centre for the Arts\, the Flemish Center for Graphic Arts\, the Jentel Foundation\, Beisinghoff Print Residency\, and the Print Research Institute of North Texas. She taught studio art for 15 years at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit and has been a visiting artist in numerous institutions in the United States and abroad. Her work is in the collection of the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, New York Public Library\, Detroit Institute of Arts\, Toledo Museum of Art\, and the University of Michigan Special Collections Library.\n\nThis project is made possible by a grant from the Mellon Foundation as part of the Institute for the Humanities' multi-year High Stakes Art initiative.

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).

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:107870-21817785@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:20240419T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240419T200000 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:114750-21833481@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.

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.

These actions\, in the form of product or firm bans\, may affect market competition and possibly the demand for the whole product category. We analyze the ban of Nestlé's Maggi\, the largest producer of instant noodles in India\, for alleged non-compliance with health safety standards. Maggi returned to the stores six months later when The High Court at Bombay ruled the ban unjustified. We show the presence of negative spillovers to competitors\, which led them to decrease their sales in the first months of the ban. We also document substantial heterogeneity in consumers' responses to the ban according to political preferences and government alignment. Using a structural model of consumer and firm behavior\, we separately identify demand and supply responses to the ban. Through counterfactuals\, we show that the ban had a substantial impact on consumer surplus. Further\, 45 percent of the overall effect was due to spillovers of the ban to the entire instant noodles category\, while the rest resulted from changes in market structure. \n\n\nThis talk is presented by the Applied Microeconomics/Industrial Organization Seminar\, sponsored by the Department of Economics with generous gifts given through the Jean Coven Speakers Fund in Economics and the Economics Strategic Fund.

Currently\, the collective has over 50 scholars. \n\nThe 1st ROLE Collective Symposium will take place this year online on April 12th (keynotes and short talks) and April 19th (workshop). The theme of this symposium is “Rejecting Harmful Native Speaker/Signer Ideologies.”\n\nStructure of the Symposium\nThe one-week difference between Day 1 and Day 2 is to ensure that any attendees who may not have been able to attend some or all of the talks on Day 1 will have enough time to watch the videos and be prepared for the second day. In addition\, though all of the short talks will be uploaded online only\, and not broadcast synchronously on Day 1\, there will be a synchronous discussion of these talks on Day 2.\n\nDay 2 will begin with a structured discussion of the short talks. Then\, participants will split up into at least 5 themed breakout rooms to work together to discuss how to address harmful notions of language in various contexts. These contexts include research practices (e.g.\, how to ethically and accurately capture differences in language experience\, how to implement conceptual changes via novel statistical methods\, how to recruit participants without relying on the native speaker/signer construct)\, clinical assessments (e.g.\, creating resources about how language ideologies can lead to misdiagnoses of individuals whose language practices are marginalized\, and advocating for the further development of assessment materials which are inclusive of a broader range of language/varieties)\, admissions processes (e.g.\, creating white papers for graduate and undergraduate programs to eschew native speaker/signer ideologies in assessments of the language of incoming students)\, evaluation of academic language (e.g.\, creating guidelines for editors and reviewers to assess the language of submitted manuscript/grant application without relying on the native speaker construct)\, communicating with the public (e.g.\, creating public-facing information for the affirmation of all kinds of language experience)\, and whatever other priorities are identified by participants – participants’ priorities will be identified via a survey distributed after the first symposium day and before the workshop day.

To assess a data point’s impact on the model\, we remove it from the dataset and aim to understand the model’s behavior when trained on the remaining data. This scenario is relevant in various classical and modern applications\, including risk estimation\, outlier detection\, machine unlearning\, and data valuation. Conventional approaches involve training the model on the remaining data\, but these can be computationally demanding. Consequently\, researchers often resort to approximate methods. This talk highlights that in high-dimensional settings\, where 𝑝 is either larger than 𝑛 or at the same order\, many approximation methods may prove ineffective. We will present and analyze an accurate approximation method tailored for high-dimensional regimes\, elucidating the conditions for its accuracy. In the concluding part of the presentation\, time permitting\, we will briefly discuss some of the unresolved issues in this domain.

You’re Going to Need to Get Critical\n\nAbstract: \nCritical theories — think\, intersectionality\, critical race theory\, structural racism\, for example — are those that expose\, interrogate\, and challenge power by highlighting the social\, structural\, political\, and economic determinants of health. Critical approaches offer a stark contrast to the primarily individualistic\, biomedical\, psychosocial theories and frameworks that still dominate most doctoral social and behavioral science programs. With a handful of exceptions\, people’s thoughts\, beliefs\, attitudes\, and behaviors about HIV testing\, condom use\, PrEP\, and HAART adherence remain the primary focus of doctoral-level HIV education. Structural and political determinants of health\, and the constraints they impose on the ability of groups historically marginalized at multiple intersections (e.g.\, racialized/ minoritized\, sexual and/or gender minority\, and low SES) to engage in health promoting behaviors are rarely a focus of doctoral training. But they should be. The indomitable Audre Lorde admonished that the “Master’s tools will not dismantle the Master’s house.” This is also true of conventional approaches to HIV prevention and treatment research. More than four decades into the HIV epidemic and despite PrEP and HAART\, HIV still disproportionately affects Black and Latino gay\, bisexual\, and other men who have sex with men\, transgender and nonbinary people\, and Black and Latina women who have sex with men. These intersectional HIV inequities spotlight a dire need for a more critical approach to Ending the HIV Epidemic\, than the conventional theoretical approaches used thus far. This talk will address what it means to get critical about HIV prevention and treatment research\, some strategies for doing so\, and why SOAR students should consider critical and structural perspectives to be essential to their future HIV research careers.\n\nSYMPOSIUM DETAILS:\nAccessibility Alert: We are asking all attendees to avoid wearing fragranced personal products (like perfume or scented lotions) to accommodate attendees with fragrance allergies.

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:84303-21621264@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:20240320T152805 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240419T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240419T120000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Fridays @ RMC Seminar Series - Diving Deep: Leveraging Museum Collections to Understand the Drivers of Fish Biodiversity in a Changing Planet DESCRIPTION:This is part of our monthly seminar series at the RMC. \n\nPreview: Museums play a pivotal role in scientific research by granting access to vast collections of biological specimens. A few years ago\, the cost of sequencing genomes was prohibitively expensive. However\, with advancements in technology and economies of scale\, the prices have significantly dropped. As a result\, we are now able to sequence the genomes of hundreds of species using techniques such as exon capture\, genome skimming\, and soon chromosome-level genomes. Our current challenge lies in bridging the gap between traditional museum collections and modern genetic research. This integration opens new avenues for scientific discovery and conservation efforts\, ultimately contributing to our understanding of biodiversity and ecosystem conservation.\n\nIn this presentation\, I'll take you on a journey through my career\, highlighting the pivotal role of museum personnel and museum specimens in shaping my interdisciplinary research program focused on the evolution and systematics of marine fishes\, with an emphasis on gadiforms and other commercially important species. Utilizing voucher specimens and associated materials such as tissue samples and otoliths\, I am investigating how evolutionary patterns and the underwater environment influence the genomic diversity and connectivity of marine fishes. These findings are communicated to management agencies and other stakeholders\, providing valuable insights for monitoring and conservation projects. Additionally\, I will emphasize how my research intertwines with outreach and education efforts\, aiming to not only advance scientific knowledge but also foster a sense of stewardship for our oceans within and beyond the museum walls.

It draws on an innovative new dataset\, the Higher Ed Protest Dataset\, which combines machine learning and sociological hand-coding of more than 16\,000 campus newspaper articles. We identify 5\,488 distinct U.S. and Canadian higher ed protest events involving 585 universities and colleges between 2012 and 2018. The goals of the paper are twofold: to characterize major patterns in social movement activity in higher education and to develop a multi- institutional framework of higher education politics that attends to both protest and protest management. In both countries\, much higher ed protest centers university administration and governance. The frequency of protest is patterned by the academic calendar\, which facilitates an essential strategy university leaders use to manage protest: wait until the summer. Other recurring higher ed protest issues differ by country: in the United States\, anti-racism\, labor\, and national politics of Trump and police violence and\, in Canada\, public university tuition and labor conditions. A few issues are the focus of major protest waves. Likewise\, administrations and police tend to avoid direct intervention during protest events\, with some outlier cases such as the 2012 “Maple Spring” tuition protests in Montreal and protest-counterprotest encounters involving Trump’s presidency and the far right. Findings contribute to the critical sociological study of social movements at the intersection of higher education\, organizations\, and policing.

When these systems are too large to solve directly\, iterative refinement methods such as conjugate gradient have proven to be a powerful alternative. The computational cost of these methods can be significantly affected by a problem-dependent condition number\, which is often addressed by combining the iterative solver with a preconditioner\, i.e.\, an easy to invert approximation of the original system. However\, constructing a good preconditioner can still be very expensive\, which leads to an undesirable trade-off between the cost of preconditioning and the cost of solving the linear system.\n\nIn this talk\, I will present new stochastic iterative methods for solving linear systems based on the so-called Sketch-and-Project paradigm\, which can reduce the condition number of the system without having to precondition it. This approach is based on the following phenomenon: Whenever the spectral structure of a linear system is amenable to constructing a strong preconditioner via low-rank matrix approximation\, we can design a Sketch-and-Project solver that will implicitly take advantage of this to find the solution faster. In particular\, I will show how this leads to solving an n x n linear system with at most k large (outlying) singular values in ~O( n^2 + n k^2 ) arithmetic operations\, which is faster than the ~O( n^2 k ) cost of constructing a good preconditioner for this system.\n\n\nContact: Robert Krasny UID:114772-21833587@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114772 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Mathematics LOCATION:East Hall - 1084 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240328T181721 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240419T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240419T160000 SUMMARY:Performance:Andrew Choi & Ellen Hayashi\, violin DESCRIPTION:Undergraduates Andrew Choi & Ellen Hayashi perform a recital on the violin.

Researchers have proposed various ecological and evolutionary hypotheses explaining this pattern\, but such explanations are contingent upon the absence of Paranthropus being a \"true\" pattern. Observed absence\, however\, is consistent with two mutually exclusive outcomes: Paranthropus never occupied the Afar\, or it did but just has not been found yet. For my talk\, I introduce a model that is able to place probabilities on these two outcomes to determine whether observed Paranthropus absence in the Afar reflects true absence.\" UID:121000-21845660@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/121000 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Anthropology LOCATION:West Hall - 411 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240416T131425 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240419T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240419T160000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Different Paths in Engineering: Virtual Alumni Panel DESCRIPTION:Wondering about the different paths students take after getting their engineering PhD?

This striking result demonstrates how geometry can influence arithmetic properties. In this talk\, I will present Bombieri's simplification of Vojta's proof. The key idea is to embed the curve into its Jacobian and study the height pairing on it. We will employ techniques from diophantine approximation to prove Vojta's inequality\, which imposes a stringent condition on rational points.

Tackling them will require responses at the level of policy\, culture\, and technology1. One of the most valuable tools available has the advantage of almost 4 billion years of modification and fine-tuning via evolution: microbes. By taking advantage of microbiological processes\, we can build technologies that will revolutionize our economies. One such technology is microbial electrosynthesis (MES). MES takes advantage of bacteria that consume electrons via a process called extracellular electron uptake (EEU). By feeding microbes electricity\, we can produce a range of bio-commodities such as bioplastic and biofuel using substrates like organic carbon-rich wastes or even carbon dioxide (CO2). However\, before such a technological feat is scalable\, we must understand the fundamental mechanisms at play and develop proof-of-concept prototypes. Only then can we design systems capable of economically feasible\, industrial scale bioproduction. Here\, we discuss the underlying biology\, highlight our lab’s work pertaining to EEU and MES\, and outline future directions.

Earlier in 2023\, the G7 ministers of climate\, energy\, and environment issued a communication committing to maximize use of existing reactors\, work collaboratively to develop secure supply chains for fuel\, technology\, and human resources\, and to working domestically and with partner countries to build advanced reactors. These policies forecast rapid growth of nuclear in the US and partner countries over the coming decades. This presentation covers global policies related to nuclear as well as the programs and legislation in the US and EU intended to accelerate progress towards these goals and the social and legal obstacles to their attainment.\n \nBio\nTara Righetti is the Occidental Chair of Energy and Environmental Policies at the University of Wyoming. She holds appointments in the School of Energy Resources\, and College of Law\, and the Haub School of Environment and Natural Resources. She is also the co-director of the nuclear energy research center. Professor Righetti's research focuses on property law and administrative regulation of the energy and decarbonization sectors. Her most recent interests include research into heat systems\, licensing processes for advanced reactors\, and uses of pore space in federal lands for carbon sequestration. She was recently appointed to the White House Federal Lands CCS Permitting Task Force and is a member of the U.S. Technical Advisory Group to the International Standardization Organization technical committee for CCUS. From 2021-2022 Professor Righetti served as a Fulbright Research Scholar at the Université de Lille\, in France. She lives in Laramie\, Wyoming with her three children.

Winner of four Tony Awards\, *A Little Night Music* has long entranced the world of theatre.\n\nSet in 1900 Sweden\, *A Little Night Music* explores the tangled web of affairs centered around actress Desirée Armfeldt and the men who love her: a lawyer by the name of Fredrik Egerman and the Count Carl-Magnus Malcom. When the traveling actress performs in Fredrik's town\, the estranged lovers' passion rekindles. This sparks a flurry of jealousy and suspicion among Desirée\; Fredrik\; Fredrik's wife\, Anne\; Desirée's current lover\, the Count\; and the Count's wife\, Charlotte. The men and their wives agree to join Desirée and her family for a weekend in the country at Desirée's mother's estate. With everyone in one place\, abundant possibilities for new romances and second chances bring endless surprises.\n\n*A Little Night Music* is full of hilariously witty and heartbreakingly moving moments of adoration\, regret\, and desire. This dramatic musical celebration of love showcases highly trained singers with its harmonically advanced score and masterful orchestrations\, and it includes Sondheim's popular song\, the haunting \"Send in the Clowns.\"\n\nMusic & Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim \nBook by Hugh Wheeler\nDirector Telly Leung\nMusic direction by Catherine A. Walker\n\nFUN FACTS: When Sondheim wrote “Send in the Clowns” for original actress Glynis Johns\, who had a distinctive voice but struggled to sustain long passages\, he built in frequent pauses for her to breathe. \n\nAside from Glynis Johns\, many notable actresses portrayed Desirée Armfeldt over the years\, including Judi Dench\, Bernadette Peters\, Catherine Zeta-Jones\, and *Ted Lasso*’s Hannah Waddingham.

In this exhibit\, internationally renowned Filipino artist Cian Dayrit acts as a counter-cartographer\, reclaiming mapmaking as an emancipatory activity.\n\nDayrit’s artworks\, embroidered on textiles or painted over collages of colonial-era maps\, plot the extraction of natural resources\, land grabbing\, and dispossession and displacement in his native Philippines. At the same time\, their resistant lines summon new imaginaries out of the overlaps between places and memories.\n\nDayrit’s practice is critically and practically informed by the narratives of Filipino communities. Items exhibited alongside his artwork are the result of map-drawing workshops the artist has convened with rural\, urban\, and indigenous communities across the Philippines. Propositions to Progress invites you to engage in the collaborative endeavor to activate alternative territories from the ground up.\n\nCian Dayrit is an interdisciplinary artist exploring colonialism and ethnography\, archaeology\, history\, and mythology. Dayrit subverts the language of the state\, museum\, and military to visualize the contradictions on which these institutions are built. He studied at the University of the Philippines.

Its youth group organizers aimed to bolster Palestinian unity across the systemic barriers — colonial divides\, military checkpoints\, walls\, etc. — that fragment the lives of people living in Palestine. \n\nSouq Stories: Gaza Lives brings us to present-day Gaza\, sharing the stories of\, and images captured by\, young journalists and photographers who have continued to document the realities of life in Palestine. It also honors one among them\, Fouad Abu Khammash\, who was killed in January 2024 in an Israeli bomb attack on Gaza.\n\n< The exhibit includes images of people suffering the aftermath of the ongoing violence. >\n\nThis exhibit was curated by Souq Stories team members Shareef Sarhan and Waed Abbas in partnership with U-M students Amir Marshi\, Zainab Hakim\, Mariam Odeh\, and Vivian M. Nguyen. It’s offered in conjunction with this year’s Palestine Awareness Week\, an annual series of educational events related to Palestinian history\, culture\, and politics.

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).

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:114750-21833482@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.

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:86001-21795867@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:20240418T161117 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240420T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240420T112000 SUMMARY:Presentation:Earth Day Discovery Demo: Home Sweet H.O.M.E.S.

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:84303-21621265@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:20240420T121523 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240420T110000 SUMMARY:Sporting Event:Water Polo vs Indiana DESCRIPTION:Water Polo vs Indiana UID:120840-21845404@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/120840 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Athletics LOCATION:Donald B.

Winner of four Tony Awards\, *A Little Night Music* has long entranced the world of theatre.\n\nSet in 1900 Sweden\, *A Little Night Music* explores the tangled web of affairs centered around actress Desirée Armfeldt and the men who love her: a lawyer by the name of Fredrik Egerman and the Count Carl-Magnus Malcom. When the traveling actress performs in Fredrik's town\, the estranged lovers' passion rekindles. This sparks a flurry of jealousy and suspicion among Desirée\; Fredrik\; Fredrik's wife\, Anne\; Desirée's current lover\, the Count\; and the Count's wife\, Charlotte. The men and their wives agree to join Desirée and her family for a weekend in the country at Desirée's mother's estate. With everyone in one place\, abundant possibilities for new romances and second chances bring endless surprises.\n\n*A Little Night Music* is full of hilariously witty and heartbreakingly moving moments of adoration\, regret\, and desire. This dramatic musical celebration of love showcases highly trained singers with its harmonically advanced score and masterful orchestrations\, and it includes Sondheim's popular song\, the haunting \"Send in the Clowns.\"\n\nMusic & Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim \nBook by Hugh Wheeler\nDirector Telly Leung\nMusic direction by Catherine A. Walker\n\nFUN FACTS: When Sondheim wrote “Send in the Clowns” for original actress Glynis Johns\, who had a distinctive voice but struggled to sustain long passages\, he built in frequent pauses for her to breathe. \n\nAside from Glynis Johns\, many notable actresses portrayed Desirée Armfeldt over the years\, including Judi Dench\, Bernadette Peters\, Catherine Zeta-Jones\, and *Ted Lasso*’s Hannah Waddingham.

In this exhibit\, internationally renowned Filipino artist Cian Dayrit acts as a counter-cartographer\, reclaiming mapmaking as an emancipatory activity.\n\nDayrit’s artworks\, embroidered on textiles or painted over collages of colonial-era maps\, plot the extraction of natural resources\, land grabbing\, and dispossession and displacement in his native Philippines. At the same time\, their resistant lines summon new imaginaries out of the overlaps between places and memories.\n\nDayrit’s practice is critically and practically informed by the narratives of Filipino communities. Items exhibited alongside his artwork are the result of map-drawing workshops the artist has convened with rural\, urban\, and indigenous communities across the Philippines.

Its youth group organizers aimed to bolster Palestinian unity across the systemic barriers — colonial divides\, military checkpoints\, walls\, etc. — that fragment the lives of people living in Palestine. \n\nSouq Stories: Gaza Lives brings us to present-day Gaza\, sharing the stories of\, and images captured by\, young journalists and photographers who have continued to document the realities of life in Palestine. It also honors one among them\, Fouad Abu Khammash\, who was killed in January 2024 in an Israeli bomb attack on Gaza.\n\n< The exhibit includes images of people suffering the aftermath of the ongoing violence. >\n\nThis exhibit was curated by Souq Stories team members Shareef Sarhan and Waed Abbas in partnership with U-M students Amir Marshi\, Zainab Hakim\, Mariam Odeh\, and Vivian M.

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:114750-21833483@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.

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:84303-21621266@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:20240405T194239 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240421T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240421T121500 SUMMARY:Presentation:We Are Stars DESCRIPTION:What are we made of?

Winner of four Tony Awards\, *A Little Night Music* has long entranced the world of theatre.\n\nSet in 1900 Sweden\, *A Little Night Music* explores the tangled web of affairs centered around actress Desirée Armfeldt and the men who love her: a lawyer by the name of Fredrik Egerman and the Count Carl-Magnus Malcom. When the traveling actress performs in Fredrik's town\, the estranged lovers' passion rekindles. This sparks a flurry of jealousy and suspicion among Desirée\; Fredrik\; Fredrik's wife\, Anne\; Desirée's current lover\, the Count\; and the Count's wife\, Charlotte. The men and their wives agree to join Desirée and her family for a weekend in the country at Desirée's mother's estate. With everyone in one place\, abundant possibilities for new romances and second chances bring endless surprises.\n\n*A Little Night Music* is full of hilariously witty and heartbreakingly moving moments of adoration\, regret\, and desire. This dramatic musical celebration of love showcases highly trained singers with its harmonically advanced score and masterful orchestrations\, and it includes Sondheim's popular song\, the haunting \"Send in the Clowns.\"\n\nMusic & Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim \nBook by Hugh Wheeler\nDirector Telly Leung\nMusic direction by Catherine A. Walker\n\nFUN FACTS: When Sondheim wrote “Send in the Clowns” for original actress Glynis Johns\, who had a distinctive voice but struggled to sustain long passages\, he built in frequent pauses for her to breathe. \n\nAside from Glynis Johns\, many notable actresses portrayed Desirée Armfeldt over the years\, including Judi Dench\, Bernadette Peters\, Catherine Zeta-Jones\, and *Ted Lasso*’s Hannah Waddingham.

Like his protagonist\, a standard-bearer for L'Unità and head of Quarticciolo's Communist Party chapter\, he wants to correct the course of a world moving in the wrong direction. His wife has decided to invest in a degenerate young director\, his daughter wants to marry a much older man\, and then there's Netflix\, pumping out \"fast cinema\" antithetical to his own. \n\n*I Fratelli De Filippo* (2021)\, Sergio Rubini \nApril 20 @ 7:00 PM \nLorch Hall\, Askwith Auditorium \n\nSiblings Peppino\, Titina\, and Eduardo live with their beautiful mother\, Luisa De Filippo\, in turn-of-the-century Naples. The family's father seems to be absent\, but in reality he's there\, hiding in plain sight as \"uncle\" Eduardo Scarpetta\, the most acclaimed actor and playwright of his time. Scarpetta\, while not recognizing his three natural children\, introduced them to the world of theatre at an early age. Upon the death of the great actor\, his legitimate children divided his inheritance\, while Peppino\, Titina\, and Eduardo received nothing. To these three young people\, however\, \"uncle\" Scarpetta passed on a special gift\, his great talent. The De Filippo story is that of a family wound transformed into art. And of three young people\, who\, by joining forces\, give life to a completely new type of theatre.\n\n*Rapito* (2023)\, Marco Bellocchio \nApril 21 @ 5:00 PM\nLorch Hall\, Askwith Auditorium\n\nIn 1858\, in the Jewish quarter of Bologna\, the Pope's soldiers burst into the home of the Mortara family. By order of the cardinal\, they came to get Edgardo\, their seven-year-old son. A maid had secretly baptized him when he was a baby\, believing that he was at death's door. The law of the Papal States\, which governed Bologna at the time\, leaves no room for doubt: he is Catholic and must receive a Catholic education. Edgardo's parents\, distraught\, will do anything to get their son back. Supported by public opinion and the international Jewish community\, the Mortaras’ battle soon took on a political dimension. But the Pope would not return the child and Edgardo was raised in the Catholic faith\, despite the declining temporal power of the Church.\n\nThis event is part of the Italian Film Festival USA: https://italianfilmfests.org/detroit.html and co-sponsored by the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures and the Department of Film\, TV\, and Media.

In recognition of the growing numbers of mixed race-identifying people at the University of Michigan\, throughout the country\, and across the globe\, we're excited to unveil this new exhibit — a unique exploration of changing demographics and intersectional identities.\n\n[The Hatcher Library will be closed December 21 to January 1.] UID:121281-21846134@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/121281 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Free,Library LOCATION:Hatcher Graduate Library - Clark Library (2nd floor) CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230915T170734 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240422T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240422T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:CCPS Exhibition. Modernist Glass from the Polish Past DESCRIPTION:The glass in this rare collection represents the work of renowned Polish glass artists and designers created between 1960 and 1980. Known as Polskie szkło artystyczne (Polish art glass)\, the works were produced in glass factories in southern Poland and are a feature of many homes throughout Central Europe. The glass masters were trained in schools of art and design and many achieved international fame during their lifetimes. \n\nThe collectors\, Endi Poskovic and his wife Julie Anne Visco\, began acquiring the glass in 2015-16 while Endi was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. Scouring flea markets\, antique shops\, and websites\, they continue to acquire pieces and build the collection to this day. We are grateful to them for making this remarkable exhibit possible at CCPS and WCEE.\n\nOrganized by the Copernicus Center for Polish Studies\, this exhibition is co-sponsored by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design and Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia.\n\nLearn more about the exhibition and the artists at https://myumi.ch/8eVrM\n\nThe exhibit opens on September 15\, 2023 in 1010 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor.

Camera as Passport: The Ship of Photographers DESCRIPTION:Starting in 1933 when Hitler and the Nazis came to power\, a cadre of European Jews—German\, Polish\, Hungarian\, Austrian\, French—discovered that a camera could be their passport\, first out of Germany and then out of Europe. Some of these women and men had been planning one type of career—lawyer\, journalist\, painter\, musician—but then realized that they needed to find another way to earn a living. Taking photographs presented a sufficiently malleable opportunity that not only allowed them to leave Germany and then Europe but also to have a means to sustain themselves in foreign countries where they did not necessarily speak the language.\n \n They did\, however\, mobilize the visual language of photography. For a number of these figures\, forced migration became an asset during the golden age of photojournalism wherein their portable services were employed to supply picture stories on the move and around the world. Many of these Jews became influential photographers\, shaping how their contemporaries saw the world. Looking back on their work\, we can see how they have influenced our understanding of the modern world even as we can recognize their photographs as a significant component of modern Jewish visual culture.\n \n Of the dozens of photographers who fled Europe\, eight escaped on a single ship. The S. S. Winnipeg sailed from Marseille\, France on May 7\, 1941. Germany had already conquered both eastern and western Europe and was poised to invade the Soviet Union. The United States was not yet in the war. Among the 750 refugees aboard were photographers from Hungary\, Belgium\, France\, and Germany: Ilse Bing\, Josef Breitenbach\, Boris Lipnitsky\, Charles Leirens\, Yolla Niclas\, Fred Stein\, Monie Tannen\, and Ylla (Camilla Henriette Koffler). During lifeboat drills\, they discovered each other. Some of them narrowly escaped Vichy France under the auspices of the American journalist Varian Fry and the New York-based Emergency Rescue Committee that helped so many Jewish and anti-Fascist artists get out of Europe in the nick of time.\n \n This exhibit introduces the University of Michigan to this intrepid group as exemplary case studies of the wide range of European photographers who used their cameras as passports to other worlds. It focuses first on their European experiences pre-emigration before turning to their escape from Europe on the S. S. Winnipeg (with three of them taking photos on board the ship). The exhibit concludes with examples of some of their initial photographic reactions to the new world\, seeing it through European eyes.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

In this exhibit\, internationally renowned Filipino artist Cian Dayrit acts as a counter-cartographer\, reclaiming mapmaking as an emancipatory activity.\n\nDayrit’s artworks\, embroidered on textiles or painted over collages of colonial-era maps\, plot the extraction of natural resources\, land grabbing\, and dispossession and displacement in his native Philippines. At the same time\, their resistant lines summon new imaginaries out of the overlaps between places and memories.\n\nDayrit’s practice is critically and practically informed by the narratives of Filipino communities. Items exhibited alongside his artwork are the result of map-drawing workshops the artist has convened with rural\, urban\, and indigenous communities across the Philippines. Propositions to Progress invites you to engage in the collaborative endeavor to activate alternative territories from the ground up.\n\nCian Dayrit is an interdisciplinary artist exploring colonialism and ethnography\, archaeology\, history\, and mythology. Dayrit subverts the language of the state\, museum\, and military to visualize the contradictions on which these institutions are built. He studied at the University of the Philippines.

Its youth group organizers aimed to bolster Palestinian unity across the systemic barriers — colonial divides\, military checkpoints\, walls\, etc. — that fragment the lives of people living in Palestine. \n\nSouq Stories: Gaza Lives brings us to present-day Gaza\, sharing the stories of\, and images captured by\, young journalists and photographers who have continued to document the realities of life in Palestine. It also honors one among them\, Fouad Abu Khammash\, who was killed in January 2024 in an Israeli bomb attack on Gaza.\n\n< The exhibit includes images of people suffering the aftermath of the ongoing violence. >\n\nThis exhibit was curated by Souq Stories team members Shareef Sarhan and Waed Abbas in partnership with U-M students Amir Marshi\, Zainab Hakim\, Mariam Odeh\, and Vivian M. Nguyen. It’s offered in conjunction with this year’s Palestine Awareness Week\, an annual series of educational events related to Palestinian history\, culture\, and politics.

Both Malallah and Karim were significantly influenced by their mentors during and after their training in Iraq\, and continue to share their work and ideas with a new generation today.\n\nIn the United States\, Iraq is typically spoken about in a passive position: colonized\, under despotic rule\, occupied. Post-occupied. Through connections between mentors and students\, and students who became mentors to new students\, Iraqi artists have been a force for anti-colonialism\, claiming their heritage and its future for themselves.\n\nView the exhibit Monday-Friday in the Fine Arts Library\, Tappan Hall\, 855 S.

It considers the process of germination as a site for the cross-pollination of ideas from diverse disciplines around the future of the built environment. \n\nAbout the artist:\nSusan Goethel Campbell creates multi-disciplinary work that considers the contemporary landscape to be an emergent system where nature\, culture\, and the engineered environment are indistinguishable from one another. Central to her practice is the collection\, documentation\, and observation of seasonal change and ephemera in both natural and artificial environments. Her work is realized in several formats\, including installation\, video\, prints\, and drawings\, as well as projects that engage communities to look at local and global environments.\n\nCampbell earned an MFA in printmaking from Cranbrook Academy of Art. Her work has been exhibited internationally in Belgium\, Germany\, Switzerland\, and Slovenia and nationally throughout the US\, including the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, Queens Art Museum\, Crystal Bridges Museum\, Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit\, Grand Rapids Art Museum\, the Detroit Institute of Arts\, The Drawing Center\, and The International Print Center New York. In 2009 she was one of 18 artists selected for the inaugural Kresge Artist Fellowship.\n\nCampbell has been awarded residencies at the Banff Centre for the Arts\, the Flemish Center for Graphic Arts\, the Jentel Foundation\, Beisinghoff Print Residency\, and the Print Research Institute of North Texas. She taught studio art for 15 years at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit and has been a visiting artist in numerous institutions in the United States and abroad. Her work is in the collection of the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, New York Public Library\, Detroit Institute of Arts\, Toledo Museum of Art\, and the University of Michigan Special Collections Library.\n\nThis project is made possible by a grant from the Mellon Foundation as part of the Institute for the Humanities' multi-year High Stakes Art initiative.

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).

In this dissertation\, I explore the utility of Δ′17O as a paleoecological tool using the fossil teeth of Early Eocene mammals. Furthermore\, I use these Δ′17O measurements to probe global biological productivity in the Early Eocene.\n\nChapter 2 introduces a new analytical method for making high-precision (< 10 ppm 1σ uncertainty) Δ′17O measurements in an array of diverse Earth materials\, including organics\, sulfates\, phosphates\, nitrates\, carbonates\, silicates\, and waters. The method uses a 3-step process to quantitatively convert sample oxygen to molecular oxygen (O2) for mass spectrometric analysis. Sample oxygen is first converted to oxygen in CO via a high temperature conversion (HTC) furnace (commonly known by the popular Thermo brand “TC/EA”)\, then oxygen in CO is converted to oxygen in water via a Bosch-type methanation reaction\, and finally oxygen in water is converted to O2 by fluorination. In this chapter\, I report the first ever high-precision Δ′17O measurements for organic materials and nitrates along with new measurements for various other standard reference materials.\n\nChapter 3 applies the triple oxygen isotope system to a taxonomically diverse group of mammal teeth from the Early Eocene Willwood Formation of the Bighorn Basin. I use Δ′17O as a tracer for evaporative signals that yield information about the types of water resources each animal used during its life. This chapter offers new insights into the water-use strategies\, dietary preferences\, and habitats of the animals surveyed. I found evidence for semi-aquatic lifestyles in Homogalax and Coryphodon\, while Hyracotherium appeared to be substantially more water independent. Esthonyx and Cantius recorded more variable intermediate Δ′17O values\, potentially suggesting more generalized water-use behaviors in these taxa. \n\nChapter 4 explores the utility of Δ’17O in mammalian teeth to reconstruct biological productivity at the global scale. Here\, I used animal body water models to isolate the Δ′17O signal of respired atmospheric O2 from the fossil mammal teeth sampled in chapter 3. I then leveraged the relationship between global gross primary productivity (GPP) and Δ′17O of atmospheric O2 to reconstruct global GPP. The results from this analysis suggest that global GPP may have been substantially elevated relative to present day\, providing additional context for the state of life during a warm greenhouse world unlike the modern.\n\nThe advances to triple oxygen isotope geochemistry outlined here offer new\, highly versatile methodologies and applications that lay the foundation for routine Δ′17O measurements in a number of new Earth materials. This will fundamentally allow for new investigations into previously underexplored topics in the geosciences and expand our understanding of ancient worlds.

It is known that many special function solutions of Painleve equations are expressed in terms of tau functions that can be written in the form of determinants\, but until now such a representation for the Ohyama polynomials was not known. Here we present three different determinantal formulae for these polynomials: the first\, in terms of Wronskian determinants related to a Darboux transformation for a Lax pair of KdV type\; and the second\, in terms of Hankel determinants\, which is related to the Toda lattice. The third is for a slightly modified form of the polynomials and is given as a Wronskian of associated Laguerre polynomials.

We test this using a randomized control trial with 152 female microfinance groups in Tanzania where treated groups were randomly switched to repay their loan using mobile money instead of the usual method of cash. We find that this exogenous shift in the way that women use mobile money for loan repayment increases their use of mobile money for other transactions. Women’s control over their finances increases\, they have higher levels of empowerment in the household and expenditures shift towards goods aligned with their preferences. We see small positive effects of the shift to mobile money repayment on loan repayment behavior and social cohesion within the microfinance group. These findings highlight the benefits that encouraging greater use of digital technologies can bring to women.\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:119925-21843827@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/119925 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Africa,Economic Life,Economics,Global And Transnational,Microeconomics,Population Studies Center,Social Sciences,Sociology LOCATION:Institute For Social Research - 1430 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240416T111905 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240422T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240422T150000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Robotics Demo Days Winter 2024 DESCRIPTION:As the semester comes to a close\, come see what robotics students have been working on!\n\nRobotics Demo Days\nThursday\, April 18 - Wednesday\, May 1\nFord Motor Company Robotics Building\n\nThursday\, April 18\n▪ ROB 498: Design for Human-Robot Interaction / Demos / 12pm to 1:30pm in TBD\n\nMonday\, April 22\n▪ ROB 450: Capstone / Demos and presentations / 12:30pm to 3:30 in Atrium\n\nTuesday\, April 23\n▪ ROB 498: Design for Human-Robot Interaction / Demos / 12pm to 1:30pm in 2000 FRB\n▪ ROB 550: Robotic Systems Lab / Competition / All day in 2010 & Atrium\n▪ ROB 560: Bioinspired Robotic Design / Presentations / begins at 12:30pm in Atrium\n\nFriday\, April 26\n▪ EECS 467: Autonomous Robotics / Showcase / 1pm to 3:30 in Atrium\n\nWednesday\, May 1\n▪ ROB 550: Robotic Systems Lab / Competition / All day in 2010 & Atrium UID:121504-21846628@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/121504 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Michigan Robotics,Robotics LOCATION:Ford Robotics Building CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240507T123114 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240422T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240422T140000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:AAAS STPF Live Chat: Taking Your Technical Expertise to AI Policy DESCRIPTION:STPF has the ability to immediately contribute AI-relevant expertise to Congress via a unique cohort of fellows who are expert in artificial intelligence.

These results are based on a fully blinded clustering analysis of six million galaxies and quasars\, as well as the Lyman-alpha forest\, mapping out the expansion history of the universe over the past 11 billion years. Signature results include constraints on dark energy\, Hubble constant\, and neutrino mass\, as well as tantalizing hints of an anomaly in the dark-energy sector. These Y1 and future (Y2-Y5) DESI results will provide an important contribution to the overall constraints on dark energy\, neutrino mass\, and primordial non-Gaussianity.

It is well-known that these matroid polytopes arise from generalized permutohedra. In 2020\, Lam and Postnikov observed that a matroid $M$ is a positroid iff the matroid polytope $P_M$ is an alcoved polytope. This motivated the definition of a polypositroid\, a polytope which is both a generalized permutohedra and an alcoved polytope. In this talk\, we'll define and explore polypositroids with an eye towards understanding the cone of polypositroids in relation to the cone of generalized permutohedra and the cone of alcoved polytopes.

Then one can attach to π an orthogonal p-adic Galois representation ρ of dimension 2n+1. Assume ρ is irreducible\, that π is ordinary at p\, and that p does not divide the conductor of χ. I will describe work in progress which aims to prove that the Bloch--Kato Selmer group attached to the twist of ρ by χ vanishes\, under some mild ramification assumptions on π\; this is what is predicted by the Bloch--Kato conjectures.\n\nThe proof uses \"ramified Eisenstein congruences\" by constructing p-adic families of Siegel cusp forms degenerating to Klingen Eisenstein series of nonclassical weight\, and using these families to construct ramified Galois cohomology classes for the Tate dual of the twist of ρ by χ.

Former U.S. Poet Laureate Natasha Trethewey called them “existential wounds”—the ones that don’t seem to ever heal. They are the ones that can trap us into a single narrative of being unworthy\, unlovable\, and irredeemable. In her work\, Putsata models the courage to author a different narrative and the power of stories to heal even these deepest wounds. Stories hold the cure.\n\nPutsata Reang is co-presented by UMMA and Multi Ethnic Student Affairs on the occasion of the UMMA exhibition Angkor Complex: Cultural Heritage and Post-Genocide Memory in Cambodia and Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month. 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.\n\nPutsata Reang is an author and a journalist whose writings have appeared in The New York Times\, Politico\, The Guardian\, Ms\, and The Seattle Times\, among other publications. Born in Cambodia and raised in rural Oregon\, Reang has lived and worked in more than a dozen countries. She is an alum of several prestigious fellowships and residencies\, and teaches memoir writing with Seattle Arts & Lectures’ Writers in the Schools program. Her latest book\, Ma and Me\, explores the long legacy of inherited trauma and the crushing weight of cultural and filial duty\, in the context of her journey to come out to her family and claim her identity. The book has won the Pacific Northwest Book Award and was a finalist for the Washington State Book Award\, the Lambda Literary Award\, and the Dayton Literary Peace Prize.\n\nAngkor Complex: Cultural Heritage and Post-Genocide Memory in Cambodia is curated by U‑M History of Art Professor Nachiket Chanchani and on view at UMMA through July 2024.\n\nFree and open to the public.

Through research\, narratives\, demographic data\, and a variety of visual and published materials\, explore multifaceted aspects of mixed race heritage with insights from many perspectives.\n\nThe 2020 U.S. Census illuminated a 276 percent increase in individuals who identify as \"two or more races\" since 2010. In recognition of the growing numbers of mixed race-identifying people at the University of Michigan\, throughout the country\, and across the globe\, we're excited to unveil this new exhibit — a unique exploration of changing demographics and intersectional identities.\n\n[The Hatcher Library will be closed December 21 to January 1.] UID:121281-21846135@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/121281 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Free,Library LOCATION:Hatcher Graduate Library - Clark Library (2nd floor) CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230915T170734 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240423T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240423T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:CCPS Exhibition. Modernist Glass from the Polish Past DESCRIPTION:The glass in this rare collection represents the work of renowned Polish glass artists and designers created between 1960 and 1980. Known as Polskie szkło artystyczne (Polish art glass)\, the works were produced in glass factories in southern Poland and are a feature of many homes throughout Central Europe. The glass masters were trained in schools of art and design and many achieved international fame during their lifetimes. \n\nThe collectors\, Endi Poskovic and his wife Julie Anne Visco\, began acquiring the glass in 2015-16 while Endi was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. Scouring flea markets\, antique shops\, and websites\, they continue to acquire pieces and build the collection to this day. We are grateful to them for making this remarkable exhibit possible at CCPS and WCEE.\n\nOrganized by the Copernicus Center for Polish Studies\, this exhibition is co-sponsored by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design and Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia.\n\nLearn more about the exhibition and the artists at https://myumi.ch/8eVrM\n\nThe exhibit opens on September 15\, 2023 in 1010 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor.

Camera as Passport: The Ship of Photographers DESCRIPTION:Starting in 1933 when Hitler and the Nazis came to power\, a cadre of European Jews—German\, Polish\, Hungarian\, Austrian\, French—discovered that a camera could be their passport\, first out of Germany and then out of Europe. Some of these women and men had been planning one type of career—lawyer\, journalist\, painter\, musician—but then realized that they needed to find another way to earn a living. Taking photographs presented a sufficiently malleable opportunity that not only allowed them to leave Germany and then Europe but also to have a means to sustain themselves in foreign countries where they did not necessarily speak the language.\n \n They did\, however\, mobilize the visual language of photography. For a number of these figures\, forced migration became an asset during the golden age of photojournalism wherein their portable services were employed to supply picture stories on the move and around the world. Many of these Jews became influential photographers\, shaping how their contemporaries saw the world. Looking back on their work\, we can see how they have influenced our understanding of the modern world even as we can recognize their photographs as a significant component of modern Jewish visual culture.\n \n Of the dozens of photographers who fled Europe\, eight escaped on a single ship. The S. S. Winnipeg sailed from Marseille\, France on May 7\, 1941. Germany had already conquered both eastern and western Europe and was poised to invade the Soviet Union. The United States was not yet in the war. Among the 750 refugees aboard were photographers from Hungary\, Belgium\, France\, and Germany: Ilse Bing\, Josef Breitenbach\, Boris Lipnitsky\, Charles Leirens\, Yolla Niclas\, Fred Stein\, Monie Tannen\, and Ylla (Camilla Henriette Koffler). During lifeboat drills\, they discovered each other. Some of them narrowly escaped Vichy France under the auspices of the American journalist Varian Fry and the New York-based Emergency Rescue Committee that helped so many Jewish and anti-Fascist artists get out of Europe in the nick of time.\n \n This exhibit introduces the University of Michigan to this intrepid group as exemplary case studies of the wide range of European photographers who used their cameras as passports to other worlds. It focuses first on their European experiences pre-emigration before turning to their escape from Europe on the S. S. Winnipeg (with three of them taking photos on board the ship). The exhibit concludes with examples of some of their initial photographic reactions to the new world\, seeing it through European eyes.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

In this exhibit\, internationally renowned Filipino artist Cian Dayrit acts as a counter-cartographer\, reclaiming mapmaking as an emancipatory activity.\n\nDayrit’s artworks\, embroidered on textiles or painted over collages of colonial-era maps\, plot the extraction of natural resources\, land grabbing\, and dispossession and displacement in his native Philippines. At the same time\, their resistant lines summon new imaginaries out of the overlaps between places and memories.\n\nDayrit’s practice is critically and practically informed by the narratives of Filipino communities. Items exhibited alongside his artwork are the result of map-drawing workshops the artist has convened with rural\, urban\, and indigenous communities across the Philippines. Propositions to Progress invites you to engage in the collaborative endeavor to activate alternative territories from the ground up.\n\nCian Dayrit is an interdisciplinary artist exploring colonialism and ethnography\, archaeology\, history\, and mythology. Dayrit subverts the language of the state\, museum\, and military to visualize the contradictions on which these institutions are built. He studied at the University of the Philippines.

Its youth group organizers aimed to bolster Palestinian unity across the systemic barriers — colonial divides\, military checkpoints\, walls\, etc. — that fragment the lives of people living in Palestine. \n\nSouq Stories: Gaza Lives brings us to present-day Gaza\, sharing the stories of\, and images captured by\, young journalists and photographers who have continued to document the realities of life in Palestine. It also honors one among them\, Fouad Abu Khammash\, who was killed in January 2024 in an Israeli bomb attack on Gaza.\n\n< The exhibit includes images of people suffering the aftermath of the ongoing violence. >\n\nThis exhibit was curated by Souq Stories team members Shareef Sarhan and Waed Abbas in partnership with U-M students Amir Marshi\, Zainab Hakim\, Mariam Odeh\, and Vivian M. Nguyen. It’s offered in conjunction with this year’s Palestine Awareness Week\, an annual series of educational events related to Palestinian history\, culture\, and politics.

However\, his untimely passing in 2018 prevented the exhibition. In honor of the artist\, his wife Meighen Jackson has assembled this body of work for this exhibition.\n\nA 1960’s graduate of Monteith College at Wayne State\, Bill saw himself not as a storyteller nor a documentarian\, but as a photographer seeking images with the power and creativity of late 20th century painting and music making.\n\nBill Jackson’s work is represented nationally by Walter Wickiser Gallery in Manhattan and regionally by M Contemporary in Ferndale\, MI. It is included in many permanent collections including Wayne State University in Detroit.

Both Malallah and Karim were significantly influenced by their mentors during and after their training in Iraq\, and continue to share their work and ideas with a new generation today.\n\nIn the United States\, Iraq is typically spoken about in a passive position: colonized\, under despotic rule\, occupied. Post-occupied. Through connections between mentors and students\, and students who became mentors to new students\, Iraqi artists have been a force for anti-colonialism\, claiming their heritage and its future for themselves.\n\nView the exhibit Monday-Friday in the Fine Arts Library\, Tappan Hall\, 855 S.

It considers the process of germination as a site for the cross-pollination of ideas from diverse disciplines around the future of the built environment. \n\nAbout the artist:\nSusan Goethel Campbell creates multi-disciplinary work that considers the contemporary landscape to be an emergent system where nature\, culture\, and the engineered environment are indistinguishable from one another. Central to her practice is the collection\, documentation\, and observation of seasonal change and ephemera in both natural and artificial environments. Her work is realized in several formats\, including installation\, video\, prints\, and drawings\, as well as projects that engage communities to look at local and global environments.\n\nCampbell earned an MFA in printmaking from Cranbrook Academy of Art. Her work has been exhibited internationally in Belgium\, Germany\, Switzerland\, and Slovenia and nationally throughout the US\, including the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, Queens Art Museum\, Crystal Bridges Museum\, Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit\, Grand Rapids Art Museum\, the Detroit Institute of Arts\, The Drawing Center\, and The International Print Center New York. In 2009 she was one of 18 artists selected for the inaugural Kresge Artist Fellowship.\n\nCampbell has been awarded residencies at the Banff Centre for the Arts\, the Flemish Center for Graphic Arts\, the Jentel Foundation\, Beisinghoff Print Residency\, and the Print Research Institute of North Texas. She taught studio art for 15 years at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit and has been a visiting artist in numerous institutions in the United States and abroad. Her work is in the collection of the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, New York Public Library\, Detroit Institute of Arts\, Toledo Museum of Art\, and the University of Michigan Special Collections Library.\n\nThis project is made possible by a grant from the Mellon Foundation as part of the Institute for the Humanities' multi-year High Stakes Art initiative.

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).

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:114750-21833484@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.

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:86001-21795869@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:20240422T065215 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240423T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240423T130000 SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:Finals Breakfast DESCRIPTION:Fuel up for finals with a free breakfast!

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:84303-21621267@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:20240419T104617 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240423T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240423T130000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CSCS Seminar | Tensor Networks for Chemical Reaction Network Rate Calculations DESCRIPTION:Coffee and snacks will be provided. This talk will be recorded for later viewing.\n\nAbstract: In studying the dynamics of stochastic complex systems\, it is common to employ Monte Carlo sampling of trajectories because it is typically impractical to solve for the evolution of the probability distribution over exponentially large state spaces. In my talk\, I will present a case study (PRX\, 13\, 041006\, 2023) showing a numerically tractable route to studying the stochastic dynamics without sampling. The illustrative example involves a \"rare-event rate calculation\" which extracts the timescale to exhibit a stochastic switch between bistable states. The talk will provide a primer on how tensor networks can be employed to perform numerically controllable stochastic many-body dynamics with an eye toward demystifying how similar approaches can be employed in other domains.

Zoom registration at https://myumi.ch/7PPZy\n\n In four decades since the late 1970s\, China has experienced one of the most consequential economic transformations in world history. One-fifth of the Earth’s population has left behind a life of scarcity and subsistence for one of abundance and material comfort. Based on his newly published book\, Wang Feng revisits the origins\, forces\, and processes of the meteoric rise in living standards of the Chinese population\, and offers a systematic historical and sociological analysis of this unique historical juncture. Anticipating headwinds\, including an aging population\, increasing inequality\, and intensifying political control\, Wang Feng discusses why China’s age of abundance has come to an end\, and the challenges China faces in its aftermath.\n \n WANG Feng currently holds the position of professor of sociology at the University of California\, Irvine. He is a scholar with expertise in China’s social and demographic changes\, of social inequality\, and of comparative population and social history. He is the author of multiple books and many articles in professional journals\, books\, and other media outlets. His work and views have appeared frequently in major global media outlets. He has served as an expert for the United Nations\, the World Bank\, and the World Economic Forum\, among many others. His multifaceted professional service includes terms as Chair of the Department of Sociology at the University of California\, Irvine (2007-2010)\, Senior Fellow in Foreign Relations and in Global Development at the Brookings Institution\, a leading think-tank in the United States\, and the Director of the Brookings-Tsinghua Center for Public Policy in Beijing (2010-2013). He is an elected member of the Sociological Research Association\, an honor society of sociologists in the United States. He is also an elected foreign member of the Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei (National Academy of Italy). Professor Wang Feng is a graduate of the University of Michigan\, the first from the PRC receiving a PhD degree in social sciences at U-M.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

Molecular transition metal electrocatalysts often operate with high selectivity under mild operating conditions\, and offer precise control over the active site through systematic tuning of the ligand and metal complex properties. In the first part of my talk\, I will discuss our efforts to use hydride transfer to promote the electrochemical oxidation of fuels and the electrochemical reduction of organic substrates. We have developed a family of cobalt-phosphine complexes that facilitate electrocatalytic formate oxidation at mild potentials and high selectivity. By tuning the complex coordination sphere and the reaction conditions\, we reveal trends in the thermodynamic properties\, catalyst stability\, and rate of formate oxidation. I will also present our recent work to develop electrochemical ionic hydrogenation for the reduction of carbonyl compounds using an iridium catalyst. The selective reduction of acetophenone can be achieved using Brønsted acids at mild applied potentials\, and Lewis acids induce a significant rate increase. In the final part of my talk\, I will share our work using redox-active ligands to promote multielectron redox behavior at first-row metal complexes. We have shown that a class of cobalt-phenylenediamide complexes undergo reversible two-electron oxidation\, which can be tuned over 0.5 V. Experimental and computational studies were used to establish the electronic structure of these complexes. The application of these systems to promote small molecule activation via ligand-to-substrate electron transfer or ligand-based hydrogen atom transfer will be discussed.

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

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.

Camera as Passport: The Ship of Photographers DESCRIPTION:Starting in 1933 when Hitler and the Nazis came to power\, a cadre of European Jews—German\, Polish\, Hungarian\, Austrian\, French—discovered that a camera could be their passport\, first out of Germany and then out of Europe. Some of these women and men had been planning one type of career—lawyer\, journalist\, painter\, musician—but then realized that they needed to find another way to earn a living. Taking photographs presented a sufficiently malleable opportunity that not only allowed them to leave Germany and then Europe but also to have a means to sustain themselves in foreign countries where they did not necessarily speak the language.\n \n They did\, however\, mobilize the visual language of photography. For a number of these figures\, forced migration became an asset during the golden age of photojournalism wherein their portable services were employed to supply picture stories on the move and around the world. Many of these Jews became influential photographers\, shaping how their contemporaries saw the world. Looking back on their work\, we can see how they have influenced our understanding of the modern world even as we can recognize their photographs as a significant component of modern Jewish visual culture.\n \n Of the dozens of photographers who fled Europe\, eight escaped on a single ship. The S. S. Winnipeg sailed from Marseille\, France on May 7\, 1941. Germany had already conquered both eastern and western Europe and was poised to invade the Soviet Union. The United States was not yet in the war. Among the 750 refugees aboard were photographers from Hungary\, Belgium\, France\, and Germany: Ilse Bing\, Josef Breitenbach\, Boris Lipnitsky\, Charles Leirens\, Yolla Niclas\, Fred Stein\, Monie Tannen\, and Ylla (Camilla Henriette Koffler). During lifeboat drills\, they discovered each other. Some of them narrowly escaped Vichy France under the auspices of the American journalist Varian Fry and the New York-based Emergency Rescue Committee that helped so many Jewish and anti-Fascist artists get out of Europe in the nick of time.\n \n This exhibit introduces the University of Michigan to this intrepid group as exemplary case studies of the wide range of European photographers who used their cameras as passports to other worlds. It focuses first on their European experiences pre-emigration before turning to their escape from Europe on the S. S. Winnipeg (with three of them taking photos on board the ship). The exhibit concludes with examples of some of their initial photographic reactions to the new world\, seeing it through European eyes.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

In this exhibit\, internationally renowned Filipino artist Cian Dayrit acts as a counter-cartographer\, reclaiming mapmaking as an emancipatory activity.\n\nDayrit’s artworks\, embroidered on textiles or painted over collages of colonial-era maps\, plot the extraction of natural resources\, land grabbing\, and dispossession and displacement in his native Philippines. At the same time\, their resistant lines summon new imaginaries out of the overlaps between places and memories.\n\nDayrit’s practice is critically and practically informed by the narratives of Filipino communities. Items exhibited alongside his artwork are the result of map-drawing workshops the artist has convened with rural\, urban\, and indigenous communities across the Philippines. Propositions to Progress invites you to engage in the collaborative endeavor to activate alternative territories from the ground up.\n\nCian Dayrit is an interdisciplinary artist exploring colonialism and ethnography\, archaeology\, history\, and mythology. Dayrit subverts the language of the state\, museum\, and military to visualize the contradictions on which these institutions are built. He studied at the University of the Philippines.

Its youth group organizers aimed to bolster Palestinian unity across the systemic barriers — colonial divides\, military checkpoints\, walls\, etc. — that fragment the lives of people living in Palestine. \n\nSouq Stories: Gaza Lives brings us to present-day Gaza\, sharing the stories of\, and images captured by\, young journalists and photographers who have continued to document the realities of life in Palestine. It also honors one among them\, Fouad Abu Khammash\, who was killed in January 2024 in an Israeli bomb attack on Gaza.\n\n< The exhibit includes images of people suffering the aftermath of the ongoing violence. >\n\nThis exhibit was curated by Souq Stories team members Shareef Sarhan and Waed Abbas in partnership with U-M students Amir Marshi\, Zainab Hakim\, Mariam Odeh\, and Vivian M.

It considers the process of germination as a site for the cross-pollination of ideas from diverse disciplines around the future of the built environment. \n\nAbout the artist:\nSusan Goethel Campbell creates multi-disciplinary work that considers the contemporary landscape to be an emergent system where nature\, culture\, and the engineered environment are indistinguishable from one another. Central to her practice is the collection\, documentation\, and observation of seasonal change and ephemera in both natural and artificial environments. Her work is realized in several formats\, including installation\, video\, prints\, and drawings\, as well as projects that engage communities to look at local and global environments.\n\nCampbell earned an MFA in printmaking from Cranbrook Academy of Art. Her work has been exhibited internationally in Belgium\, Germany\, Switzerland\, and Slovenia and nationally throughout the US\, including the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, Queens Art Museum\, Crystal Bridges Museum\, Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit\, Grand Rapids Art Museum\, the Detroit Institute of Arts\, The Drawing Center\, and The International Print Center New York. In 2009 she was one of 18 artists selected for the inaugural Kresge Artist Fellowship.\n\nCampbell has been awarded residencies at the Banff Centre for the Arts\, the Flemish Center for Graphic Arts\, the Jentel Foundation\, Beisinghoff Print Residency\, and the Print Research Institute of North Texas. She taught studio art for 15 years at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit and has been a visiting artist in numerous institutions in the United States and abroad. Her work is in the collection of the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, New York Public Library\, Detroit Institute of Arts\, Toledo Museum of Art\, and the University of Michigan Special Collections Library.\n\nThis project is made possible by a grant from the Mellon Foundation as part of the Institute for the Humanities' multi-year High Stakes Art initiative.

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.

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.

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:84303-21621268@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:20240424T112016 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240424T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240424T150000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:2024 Forever Go Blue Bash DESCRIPTION:Congrats\, grads!

Up until the late 1980s\, ballast water – the principal pathway (65% of invasions) for species introduction to the system – was unregulated. Invasions by zebra mussels and Eurasian ruffe focused attention of researchers and policy makers on the ballast water threat\, resulting in a 1993 USCG policy mandating ballast water exchange (BWE) for vessels entering the system with filled ballast tanks. A retrospective analysis of reported invasions 13 years before and after implementation of the policy shows that new ballast-mediated invasions was virtually unchanged (16 vs 15 species\, respectively). Further policy change in 2006 (Canada) and USA (2008) required even vessels with residual ballast water to ‘flush’ open-ocean water through tanks before entry\, and coincided with a dramatic decline in new invasions (2 species) over the following 13-year period. This decline is best explained by policy change and not by alternative explanations (shipping volume\, source pool depletion\, search effort). The International Maritime Organization is presently implementing a new global policy (IMO D-2) based on abundance-based performance standards for different size classes of introduced organisms. The theory behind this policy is based on the well-established principle of ‘propagule pressure’\, which defines risk based on the concentration of viable organisms discharged of a single species. However\, IMO D-2 is based on ‘community propagule pressure’\, a nebulous and unstudied concept\, and it ignores the conflating influence of colonization pressure (ie. the number of species introduced). Here I will show that at the concentration of organisms relevant to IMO D-2\, colonization pressure has a much greater influence on probability of invasion than ‘community propagule pressure’. I will also examine compliance with the new IMO D-2 standard for zooplankton\, and suggest safeguards for the Great Lakes to ensure that vessels do not exceed permissible abundance discharge limits.\n\nAbout the speaker: Hugh MacIsaac is a professor and Canada Research Chair in Aquatic Invasive Species at the Great Lakes Institute for Environmental Research\, University of Windsor (Windsor ON). He also teaches and conducts research at Yunnan University in Kunming\, China. Hugh served as director of the CAISN research networks addressing aquatic invasive species in Canada. He has authored over 250 peer-reviewed papers and was honored with the Rigler Award from the Society of Canadian Limnologists. Hugh earned his Ph.D. degree (long ago) from Dartmouth College studying zooplankton ecology. He is interested in a variety of issues pertaining to invasive species including analyses of pathways of introduction\, risk assessment\, genetic characterization and evolution of invasive species\, and management. In his spare time\, he and his wife Jaimie enjoy cycling.

A retrospective analysis of reported invasions 13 years before and after implementation of the policy shows that new ballast-mediated invasions was virtually unchanged (16 vs 15 species\, respectively). Further policy change in 2006 (Canada) and USA (2008) required even vessels with residual ballast water to ‘flush’ open-ocean water through tanks before entry\, and coincided with a dramatic decline in new invasions (2 species) over the following 13-year period. This decline is best explained by policy change and not by alternative explanations (shipping volume\, source pool depletion\, search effort). The International Maritime Organization is presently implementing a new global policy (IMO D-2) based on abundance-based performance standards for different size classes of introduced organisms. The theory behind this policy is based on the well-established principle of ‘propagule pressure’\, which defines risk based on the concentration of viable organisms discharged of a single species. However\, IMO D-2 is based on ‘community propagule pressure’\, a nebulous and unstudied concept\, and it ignores the conflating influence of colonization pressure (ie. the number of species introduced). Here I will show that at the concentration of organisms relevant to IMO D-2\, colonization pressure has a much greater influence on probability of invasion than ‘community propagule pressure’. I will also examine compliance with the new IMO D-2 standard for zooplankton\, and suggest safeguards for the Great Lakes to ensure that vessels do not exceed permissible abundance discharge limits.\n\nAbout the speaker: Hugh MacIsaac is a professor and Canada Research Chair in Aquatic Invasive Species at the Great Lakes Institute for Environmental Research\, University of Windsor (Windsor ON).

Early identification of disabilities is important for improving outcomes because children’s brains develop rapidly\, and early childhood is the optimal treatment window. Due to a paucity of research and patient data on sexual orientation and gender identity\, the impact of bias and discrimination on children’s screening and diagnosis of disabilities in LGBTQ-parent families has been largely unknown.\n\nDr. Coulter-Thompson will present results of a national study on the impact of health care bias and discrimination on LGBTQ parents and their children with disabilities in the U.S. An online survey of LGBTQ parents (n=37) of children with disabilities and interviews with a subset of parents (n=16) measured these aims: 1) identify LGBTQ parents’ experiences of bias and discrimination when accessing care for their children\; 2) explore parents’ perceptions of how bias and discrimination affected their children’s screening and diagnosis\; 3) identify parents’ recommendations for improving care\; and 4) develop a plan for change.\n\nThis study provides evidence that some LGBTQ parents felt they had experienced bias and discrimination when accessing care for their children with disabilities. This Zoom webinar session will share parents’ recommendations for improving care and advancing health equity for LGBTQ+ families.

Each MLB scholar will give a 25-minute presentation of their research and have 5 minutes to answer questions from the audience.\n\nThe MLB mini-symposium will take place on Wednesday\, April 24 at 12:00pm in 1068EH.

We study these representations by studying the topology of the representation variety $\text{Hom}(\pi_{1}(S)\,G)/G$. These representations allow us to parameterize deformations of our surface which correspond to distinct geometric structures. By studying the resulting spaces of representations corresponding to geometric structures\, known as Higher Teichmüller spaces\, we are able to gain some understanding of the flexibility or rigidity of the geometry of a given surface.\n\nWhile Higher Teichmüller Theory is a fairly young field\, it is heavily motivated by the tools and problems established in the rank 1 case\, or classical Teichmüller theory. This talk will serve as a bridge between these two topics\, outlining the tools and techniques used to build classical Teichmüller space\, and then generalizing these tools to the higher rank case. In the end I will briefly cover some results of Higher Teichmüller Theory\, as well as discuss some recently proposed conjectures.\n\nSpeaker: Gerardo Dutan\nTitle: Constructing a Framework for Optimal Player Management\nAbstract: One of the crises hitting sports leagues around the world today is the issue of how to protect the entertainment value of their product. Leagues commonly suffer drops in watchability when key stars do not play either from injury or team-enforced resting policies. \n\nIn this talk\, we propose a modeling framework for addressing load management issues seen in professional sports. Our goal is to adequately characterize the dynamics of a sports league and construct a method for obtaining a well-defined optimal policy for a team to implement. We base our approach on contest theory principles that borrow from game theory and stochastic Markov decision processes. \n\nSpeaker: Javier Santiago\nTitle: On Permutation Polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$ induced by exceptional rational functions\nAbstract: In this talk\, we will present our approach to the study of permutation polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$\, which centers around understanding exceptional rational functions over $\mathbb{F}_q$. In particular\, we discuss how to use geometric methods in order to gain insight into said rational functions\, and we use such methods to give a classification of exceptional rational functions of small degree. This in turn allows us to produce large numbers of classes of permutation polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$ in a systematic manner.

Using quasi-random variation in the likelihood of fertility treatment success\, we find that involuntary infertility leads to substantial deterioration of mental health and couple stability\, with no impact on long-run labor market outcomes. Using sharp age cutoffs in public insurance coverage of IVF treatments\, we show that insurance substantially increases the use of expensive infertility treatments\, especially among lower-income households. We argue that households are responsive to insurance due to a liquidity effect rather than only traditional moral hazard. We discuss the implications for the role of public subsidies for infertility treatments in allocating additional children across the socioeconomic spectrum.\n\nThis talk is presented by the Labor Economics Seminar\, sponsored in part by the Department of Economics with generous gifts given through the Abraham and Thelma Zwerdling Labor Economics Program.

Environments made for humans remain challenging for autonomous robots due to their highly unstructured nature which arises from environmental occlusions and dynamic environments. This dissertation considers the problem of scalable\, robust robotic perception and planning in these challenging environments through distributed probabilistic inference. Distributed inference leverages graphical models to break up complex problems into multiple smaller subproblems which can be solved in parallel. This dissertation introduces three novel approaches based on this idea: first\, a parts-based method for localizing articulated objects in cluttered scenes\, using nonparametric belief propagation which leverages a learned likelihood and geometric priors. Second\, we propose a framework for robotic planning that accounts for uncertainty in goal specification\, using the planning-as-inference paradigm and formulating a novel goal loss. Third\, we perform distributed planning over multi-robot teams through a new algorithm called Stein Variational Belief Propagation. Through each of these works\, we demonstrate how maintaining diverse distribution modes lends robustness in challenging environmental conditions.\n\nThis dissertation also considers the challenge of robotics education to meet the growing demand for robotics and AI curricula across universities. We propose an undergraduate robotics course taught through hands-on projects involving programming a real robotic platform. Drawing on lessons from distributed inference\, we employ a distributed teaching collaborative approach to teaching introductory robotics across institutions. Finally\, we suggest best practices for teaching robotics as a discipline at the undergraduate level based on lessons learned teaching the course described at the University of Michigan and three partner institutions to over 100 students over the past three years.

LPs with heterogeneous characteristics choose optimal liquidity positions subject to uncertainty regarding the size of exogenous incoming transactions and the prices of assets in a centralized market. They engage in a game among themselves\, and the resulting liquidity distribution determines the exchange rate dynamics and potential arbitrage opportunities of the pool. We calibrate the distribution of LP characteristics based on Uniswap data and the equilibrium strategy resulting from this mean-field game produces pool exchange rate dynamics and liquidity evolution consistent with observed pool behavior. We subsequently introduce Maximal Extractable Value (MEV) bot attackers and develop a Stackelberg game between LPs and bots. This results in more accurate simulated pool exchange rate dynamics and stronger predictive power regarding the evolution of the pool liquidity distribution.\n\nJoint work with Erhan Bayraktar and Asaf Cohen UID:119736-21843513@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/119736 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Mathematics LOCATION:East Hall - 1360 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240328T133852 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240424T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240424T171500 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Electrifying Nitrogen Splitting for Ammonia Synthesis DESCRIPTION:The electrochemical reduction of dinitrogen to ammonia promises a sustainable route to fertilizers and fuels. A mechanism based on direct N2 splitting into metal nitride complexes\, followed by proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) to generate NH3\, will be considered. Electrochemical kinetic and spectroscopic studies of rhenium and molybdenum complexes capable of reductive N2 binding and splitting provide molecular-level mechanistic details on key steps relevant to ammonia synthesis. The mechanistic studies are complemented by molecular orbital theory analyses probing fundamental aspects of dinitrogen bonding and reactivity\, guiding the design of catalysts for ammonia synthesis.

Liberationist Christianity in Brazil DESCRIPTION:Professor Löwy calls “Liberationist Christianity” the vast social-religious movement\, which emerged at the beginning of the 1960s\, with a strong commitment to fight for social liberation. This movement involved considerable sectors of the Church – priests\, religious orders\, bishops – lay religious movements – Catholic Action\, the Christian student movement\, Christian young workers – pastoral committees with a popular base – labour\, land and urban pastorals –and ecclesiastical base communities. Liberation Theology\, which emerged after 1971 was the expression of this movement. The Church as an institution supported the military coup of 1964\, but under the influence of Liberationist Christianity it became\, after 1970\, a frontal opponent to the military dictatorship. Without this social-religious movement one cannot understand the emergence of a new workers and peasant movement in Brazil during the 1980’s (the Workers’ Party\, the Union Confederation\, and the Landless Peasants’ Movement\, etc.)\n \nMichael Löwy\, born in Brazil in 1938\, has lived in Paris since 1969. He is an emeritus research director in social sciences at the CNRS (French National Center for Scientific Research). His books include *Redemption and Utopia: Liberation Judaism in Central Europe*\, *Marxism in Latin America*\, and *The War of the Gods: Religion and Politics in Latin America*. His writings have been translated into 30 languages.

Gorodnik-Weiss showed that the distribution of dense Γ-orbits in the homogeneous space G/H is asymptotically the same as that of G-orbits which can then be described in terms of limiting ratios of certain volumes. One key ingredient in their proof is Shah's theorem which is derived from the famous Ratner's theorem. In a joint work with Zuo Lin\, we prove an effective version of this result assuming that the effective version of Shah's theorem holds in general. Thanks to the pioneering work of Lindenstrauss-Mohammadi-Wang\, such an effective version of Shah's theorem indeed holds for (G\, H) = (SL_2(C)\, SL_2(R)) and Γ arithmetic. We thus obtain an unconditional theorem in this case.

Join me\, our Resident Recruitment Manager\, as we take a look at topics relevant to folks considering a career in teaching who are struggling to know where to begin. Questions we’ll address include:\n\nWhat’s the difference between elementary and secondary education\, both professionally and practically?\nHow can I determine what my (non-education) undergraduate degree will permit me to teach in the places I’d like to live?\nHow can I gain the experience I’d need to understand if teaching is a good path for me\, ideally in a way that would be appealing to education programs or K-12 schools?\n\nI’ll be facilitating the discussion as a non-traditional teacher with personal experience navigating the professional and logistical challenges of taking the alternate route to teaching. The goal of this session is to help provide context in an open discussion setting\, which means that we’ll follow an outline of topics but leave plenty of room for impromptu questions and discussion. I hope to see you there!\n UID:121343-21846436@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/121343 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION: CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240416T181625 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240424T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240424T210000 SUMMARY:Performance:ChenYi Avsharian\, violin with Amy I-Lin Cheng\, piano DESCRIPTION:Internationally recognized violin virtuoso\, ChenYi Avsharian\, has built an exceptional reputation as a soloist\, recitalist\, and chamber musician.
