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:107870-21817905@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:20240130T121551 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240907T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240907T200000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. 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:84303-21621384@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:20240620T181506 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240907T110200 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240907T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Michelle Hinojosa: Logcabins DESCRIPTION:Stamps Gallery commissioned Michelle Hinojosa (MFA\, 2023) to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the Gallery. Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home\, placemaking\, labor\, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body\, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade\, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley\, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.\nArtist’s bio:\nMichelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist\, educator\, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas\, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting\, bead weaving\, embroidery\, jewelry\, transparent film installations\, painting\, ceramics\, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story\, re-make\, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx\, Chicanx\, Mexican\, and Texican peoples. \n\nRecently\, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan\, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania)\, Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen\, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas\, TX).

Christo Rupenthal's Novelty Combo from Madison\, WI\, brings a fusion of antique Hawaiian steel guitar and hot club music\, and Erik McIntyre from Flint\, MI will be playing early American archtop guitar influenced by musicians such as Eddie Lang\, whose recordings with violinist Joe Venuti served as the blueprint for Reinhardt and Grapelli's work. With a range of diverse offerings\, united together by enthusiasm\, skill\, and passion for the legacy surrounding the music of Django Reinhardt\, this iteration of Ann Arbor's burgeoning new series is sure to delight\, transport\, and inspire.\n \nDjangophonique is an award winning project that delivers the infectious joy\, and expressive freedom that is at the heart of Django Reinhardt’s jazz manouche. With respect for the tradition and a fearless creativity that bends the conventions of the style\, Djangophonique is keeping the Hot Club revival alive and well. The result is a sound that’s unmistakable to fans of the music\, and alluring to the uninitiated—a sound that can bring the lively energy of a Parisian dance hall to the quietest listening room or captivate a buzzing festival audience with the aching nostalgia of a shimmering ballad.\n \nChristo Ruppenthal is an award-winning multi-instrumentalist and music entrepreneur whose professional career started in 2003. He presents a unique mixture of Vaudeville-era novelty infused hot steel guitar playing from the 1920s and 30s \"Hawaiian Craze\" combined with the swinging sounds of Django Reinhardt’s 1930s and 40s guitar-driven Hot Club jazz. Think “Hot Hawaiian guitar meets Jazz à la Django!” Christo is an avid recording artist and performer with thousands of gigs both across the U.S. and internationally to his credit. \n\nInspired by a melting pot of moods\, styles\, and spirit heard in recordings from the 1920s and 30s (by such artists as Eddie Lang\, Louis Armstrong\, Blind Blake\, Lonnie Johnson\, Billie Holiday\, Django Reinhardt\, Blind Boy Fuller\, Agustín Barrios Mangoré\, The Carter Family\, Jimmie Rodgers...)\, Erik McIntyre continues to hone a distinct musical voice that pays homage with a personal touch. His playing is spontaneous yet studious — synergizing “muse” and “ic”. Whether as soloist or sideman\, his arrangements\, improvisations\, and compositions weave a tapestry that is filtered through a warm lens of nostalgia and invites listeners to his inner world.

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.

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:84303-21621385@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:20240908T120006 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240908T111100 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240908T121100 SUMMARY:Other:H2O Sunday Service DESCRIPTION:Come join us for praise and worship with students and alumni from UoM at the Rackham Building (4th floor).

For over 60 years\, the region has been host to the activities of multinational oil corporations who partner with the Nigerian state in exploiting oil for profit. Oil was first discovered in the region in 1956\, and the first shipment of the commodity to the international market occurred in 1958 with a consignment of about 5\,000 barrels per day (bpd). Production peaked at about 2.5 million bpd\, but today\, because of community protests\, insurgency\, and general disruption to the activities of corporations\, the number hovers between 1.2 million to 1.4 million bpd. While the state has benefited immensely from oil production\, the same cannot be said of the communities that are hosts to pipelines\, flow stations\, and all of the oil infrastructure that has come to define the entire region. Loss of livelihood\, heavily polluted environment\, death\, and displacement have characterized the region’s interaction with multinational oil corporations such as Shell\, Chevron\, ExxonMobil\, Eni\, Total Energies\, etc.\n\nThis exhibition is a bold attempt to shed light on what it means to live in an oil extractive enclave like the Niger Delta region of Nigeria. The images showcase the lives lived\, the loss\, perseverance\, and determination to survive.\n\nThe exhibition is divided into two parts. The first part of the exhibition is displayed in the DAAS gallery with the sub-theme “People Crossings and the Dangers of Oil Pollution” and is a demonstration of the everyday lived experiences of the inhabitants of many of the enclaves of the Niger Delta. As depicted in the photos\, people cross polluted rivers to go to school and in search of a means of survival.\n\nGallery visitors are invited to cross from the DAAS Gallery to the International Institute Gallery on the 5th floor of Weiser Hall to see the second part of the exhibition\, “Living\, Community\, and Polluted Environment.” This portion of the exhibition demonstrates community resilience in the face of environmental persecution. It shows everyday life amid oil infrastructure that litters the entire landscape of many of the communities in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria.\n\n— - - -\nNnimmo Bassey is an architect\, environmental justice activist\, writer\, and poet. His latest poetry collection is titled I See the Invisible (2023). Other collections include I Will Not Dance to Your Beat(2011) and We Thought It Was Oil But It Was Blood (2002). He is director of the ecological think-tank\, Health of Mother Earth Foundation (HOMEF).\n\nOmolade Adunbi is a professor of Anthropology\, Afroamerican and African Studies and Law at the University of Michigan. His research examines the dynamics of power\, natural resource extractive practices\, governance\, human and environmental rights\, culture\, transnational institutions\, multinational corporations\, and the postcolonial state. His latest book\, Enclaves of Exception: Special Economic Zones and Extractive Practices in Nigeria (Indiana University Press\,2022)\, offers a new approach to exploring the relationship between oil and technologies of extraction and their interrelatedness to China’s interest in free trade zones and its impact on local livelihoods and environmental practices.\n\n*Nnimmo Bassey’s photos courtesy of the Health of Mother Earth Foundation (HOMEF).* UID:126212-21856706@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/126212 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:African Studies,African Studies Center,Exhibition,International LOCATION:Weiser Hall - 555, International Institute Gallery (5th Floor) CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240830T112455 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240909T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240909T200000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mrs. Dalloway and WWI: Home Front and War Front DESCRIPTION:This exhibit explores the characters of Mrs. Dalloway through the lens of WWI and its aftershocks.

David Hilbert\, arguably one of the greatest mathematicians of his time\, described Choice as the axiom \"most attacked up to the present in the mathematical literature\;\" and in Gregory Moore's words \"if the Axiom's most severe constructivist critics prevailed\, mathematics would be reduced to a collection of algorithms.\"\n\nModern mathematics\, however\, severely relies on the Axiom\, even if not in its full strength. Commonly used mathematical principles such as Zorn's Lemma\, the trichotomy of cardinals\, the right-invertibility of surjective functions\, and the existence of a basis for arbitrary vector spaces are all consequences of\, and\, in fact\, equivalent to\, the Axiom of Choice.\n\nThrough this inaugural talk of the Student Logic and History of Math Seminar\, we explore some of the history\, philosophy\, and mathematics surrounding the Axiom of Choice.

In theory\, NQS architectures are broadly applicable\, and have been demonstrated successfully on several fundamental applications. We seek to further explore the practical utility of NQS as a black box solver for various applications in the scientific computing domain. We first present NQS as an explicit avenue for de-quantizing variational quantum eigensolvers\, demonstrating with the variational quantum linear solver (VQLS). We then explore the utility of VQLS and its de-quantization\, VNLS\, as black box solvers for a Newton-based linear complementarity solver\, used to model the time evolution of a rudimentary soil system. We introduce a new retentive network (RetNet) autoregressive NQS ansatz to solve electronic ground state calculations in computational quantum chemistry\, and we finish with a scaling law analysis of the RetNet architecture and its immediate autoregressive predecessors as applied to electronic structure calculations.\n\nHybrid Defense:\n5822 East Hall\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/92606555957 UID:125757-21856064@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/125757 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Dissertation,Mathematics LOCATION:East Hall - 5822 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240924T123407 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240909T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240909T143000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Homes.com - Sales Associate Opportunities DESCRIPTION:Homes.comHomes.com is the fastest-growing real estate portal in the industry\, and we are driven to be#1.

DESCRIPTION:The adaptive immune system of vertebrates is able to learn from past experiences to better suit an unforeseen future. This is made possible by a diverse and dynamic repertoire of lymphocytes expressing unique antigen receptors and capable of rapid evolution within an individual. However\, naturally occurring immune responses exhibit limits in efficacy\, speed and capacity to adapt to new challenges. In this talk\, I will present conceptual and computational frameworks to (1) explore functional impact of non-equilibrium antigen recognition and (2) identify conditions under which natural selection acting local in time can find adaptable solutions favorable in the long run – in light of viral-immune coevolution. Using these examples\, I show that immune cells can exploit physical constraints to extract signal and expand their adaptive potential. Considering information propagation from receptor to repertoire and back lets us rethink the logic behind proofreading\, in a dynamical system that demands precision and balance while facing perpetual disturbances.

In particular\, the merger of binary black holes results in gravitational wave memory. I will discuss the prospects for measuring memory from binary black hole mergers.\n\nThough gravitational wave memory is a consequence of the nonlinear Einstein field equations\, it can be most easily understood by using linear perturbation theory with the Weyl tensor as the basic variable. Gravitational perturbation theory using the Weyl tensor is analogous to Maxwell's equations for electromagnetism. Correspondingly\, there is an electromagnetic analog of gravitational wave memory called electromagnetic memory. I will present a proposal for how to measure electromagnetic memory.

There is no place for refugees’ suffering in the countries of exile when survival becomes proof of their deservingness. In this context of forced exile\, autonomy\, and survival become closely linked to\, if not defined by\, integration\, which is\, at the same time\, hindered by racism\, discrimination\, and othering policies. This superposition of trauma survival and integration creates a hard-to-break-from conundrum for exiles\, as they are expected to heal to integrate when healing is almost impossible in disintegration.\n\nThis 'survival regime' has impacted migration and integration policies. It allowed perceptions of and expectations from refugees in Western European host countries to change\, opening the possibility for policymakers to perceive refugees not only as people to protect based on international law obligations but also (and mostly) as an economic opportunity and a dividend. It has also deeply reshaped therapeutic practices\, disrupting the roles of psychiatrists and psychotherapists\, and redefining what 'therapeutic' and 'psychological recovery' mean.\"\n\nMayssa Rekhis is a Medical Doctor\, who graduated from the University of Tunis el-Manar\, Tunisia\, and an anthropologist\, holding a Ph.D from the School of Advanced Studies in Social Sciences EHESS - Paris\, France.

For over 60 years\, the region has been host to the activities of multinational oil corporations who partner with the Nigerian state in exploiting oil for profit. Oil was first discovered in the region in 1956\, and the first shipment of the commodity to the international market occurred in 1958 with a consignment of about 5\,000 barrels per day (bpd). Production peaked at about 2.5 million bpd\, but today\, because of community protests\, insurgency\, and general disruption to the activities of corporations\, the number hovers between 1.2 million to 1.4 million bpd. While the state has benefited immensely from oil production\, the same cannot be said of the communities that are hosts to pipelines\, flow stations\, and all of the oil infrastructure that has come to define the entire region. Loss of livelihood\, heavily polluted environment\, death\, and displacement have characterized the region’s interaction with multinational oil corporations such as Shell\, Chevron\, ExxonMobil\, Eni\, Total Energies\, etc.\n\nThis exhibition is a bold attempt to shed light on what it means to live in an oil extractive enclave like the Niger Delta region of Nigeria. The images showcase the lives lived\, the loss\, perseverance\, and determination to survive. \n\nThe exhibition is divided into two parts. The first part of the exhibition is displayed in the DAAS gallery with the sub-theme “People Crossings and the Dangers of Oil Pollution” and is a demonstration of the everyday lived experiences of the inhabitants of many of the enclaves of the Niger Delta. As depicted in the photos\, people cross polluted rivers to go to school and in search of a means of survival. \n\nGallery visitors are invited to cross from the DAAS Gallery to the International Institute Gallery on the 5th floor of Weiser Hall to see the second part of the exhibition\, “Living\, Community\, and Polluted Environment.” This portion of the exhibition demonstrates community resilience in the face of environmental persecution. It shows everyday life amid oil infrastructure that litters the entire landscape of many of the communities in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria.\n\n— - - -\nNnimmo Bassey is an architect\, environmental justice activist\, writer\, and poet. His latest poetry collection is titled I See the Invisible (2023). Other collections include I Will Not Dance to Your Beat(2011) and We Thought It Was Oil But It Was Blood (2002). He is director of the ecological think-tank\, Health of Mother Earth Foundation (HOMEF). \n\nOmolade Adunbi is a professor of Anthropology\, Afroamerican and African Studies and Law at the University of Michigan. His research examines the dynamics of power\, natural resource extractive practices\, governance\, human and environmental rights\, culture\, transnational institutions\, multinational corporations\, and the postcolonial state. His latest book\, Enclaves of Exception: Special Economic Zones and Extractive Practices in Nigeria (Indiana University Press\,2022)\, offers a new approach to exploring the relationship between oil and technologies of extraction and their interrelatedness to China’s interest in free trade zones and its impact on local livelihoods and environmental practices. \n\nDiepreye Amanah is a Nigerian-American poet from Charlotte\, North Carolina.

In her book \"The Beauty of Difference—think differently together\"\, which was nominated for the prize „der Leipziger Buchmesse“ in 2022\, she tells her personal story and combines it with socio-political reflections about Germany as a migration society. She develops visions of how we can unlearn what we have learned. In October 2024\, her second book \"Be together\" will be published.\n\nBased on this work\, her reading is about perceptions of difference\, changing perspectives\, and empowerment with translated texts.

The seventeen life-size figures\, crafted from found objects and beach flotsam\, are a poignant response to the tragedies in Savageau’s life\, including the loss of her three children. Through this deeply personal and powerful work\, Savageau reimagines discarded materials as symbols of new life and resilience\, reflecting the healing power of art.\n\nAnn Savageau will be in residence in Ann Arbor and the Residential College from September 16-20 and October 20-25\, 2024.

For over 60 years\, the region has been host to the activities of multinational oil corporations who partner with the Nigerian state in exploiting oil for profit. Oil was first discovered in the region in 1956\, and the first shipment of the commodity to the international market occurred in 1958 with a consignment of about 5\,000 barrels per day (bpd). Production peaked at about 2.5 million bpd\, but today\, because of community protests\, insurgency\, and general disruption to the activities of corporations\, the number hovers between 1.2 million to 1.4 million bpd. While the state has benefited immensely from oil production\, the same cannot be said of the communities that are hosts to pipelines\, flow stations\, and all of the oil infrastructure that has come to define the entire region. Loss of livelihood\, heavily polluted environment\, death\, and displacement have characterized the region’s interaction with multinational oil corporations such as Shell\, Chevron\, ExxonMobil\, Eni\, Total Energies\, etc.\n\nThis exhibition is a bold attempt to shed light on what it means to live in an oil extractive enclave like the Niger Delta region of Nigeria. The images showcase the lives lived\, the loss\, perseverance\, and determination to survive.\n\nThe exhibition is divided into two parts. The first part of the exhibition is displayed in the DAAS gallery with the sub-theme “People Crossings and the Dangers of Oil Pollution” and is a demonstration of the everyday lived experiences of the inhabitants of many of the enclaves of the Niger Delta. As depicted in the photos\, people cross polluted rivers to go to school and in search of a means of survival.\n\nGallery visitors are invited to cross from the DAAS Gallery to the International Institute Gallery on the 5th floor of Weiser Hall to see the second part of the exhibition\, “Living\, Community\, and Polluted Environment.” This portion of the exhibition demonstrates community resilience in the face of environmental persecution. It shows everyday life amid oil infrastructure that litters the entire landscape of many of the communities in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria.\n\n— - - -\nNnimmo Bassey is an architect\, environmental justice activist\, writer\, and poet. His latest poetry collection is titled I See the Invisible (2023). Other collections include I Will Not Dance to Your Beat(2011) and We Thought It Was Oil But It Was Blood (2002). He is director of the ecological think-tank\, Health of Mother Earth Foundation (HOMEF).\n\nOmolade Adunbi is a professor of Anthropology\, Afroamerican and African Studies and Law at the University of Michigan. His research examines the dynamics of power\, natural resource extractive practices\, governance\, human and environmental rights\, culture\, transnational institutions\, multinational corporations\, and the postcolonial state. His latest book\, Enclaves of Exception: Special Economic Zones and Extractive Practices in Nigeria (Indiana University Press\,2022)\, offers a new approach to exploring the relationship between oil and technologies of extraction and their interrelatedness to China’s interest in free trade zones and its impact on local livelihoods and environmental practices.\n\n*Nnimmo Bassey’s photos courtesy of the Health of Mother Earth Foundation (HOMEF).* UID:126212-21856707@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/126212 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:African Studies,African Studies Center,Exhibition,International LOCATION:Weiser Hall - 555, International Institute Gallery (5th Floor) CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240830T112455 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240910T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240910T200000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mrs. Dalloway and WWI: Home Front and War Front DESCRIPTION:This exhibit explores the characters of Mrs. Dalloway through the lens of WWI and its aftershocks.

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:107870-21817907@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:20240130T121551 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240910T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240910T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. 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:84303-21621386@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:20240814T154032 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240910T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240910T130000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Macro Seminar: Tuesday\, September 10 DESCRIPTION:-- UID:124275-21852833@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/124275 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,Macroeconomics,seminar LOCATION:Lorch Hall - 201 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240925T063342 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240910T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240910T130000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:A&M's Consumer & Retail Group | Company Presentation | FT & InternRoles DESCRIPTION:Please also register using the following link:https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0D4DA5AA28A0FBCE9-50886454-amcrgAlvarez &\; Marsal (A&\;M) is a premier independent global professional services firm specializing in providing turnaround management\, restructuring\, performance improvement and corporate advisory services. Established five years ago\, A&\;M’s Consumer &\; Retail Group continues to experience high growth.  A&\;M’s Consumer and Retail Group combines the best of A&\;M’s bias toward action and practicality with deep industryexperience from bringing together management consultants and operators. Our purpose is to translate our experience\, innovative thinking and bias for action into tangible results for our clients\, putting themon the right side of this disruption\, and positioning them for long termsuccess. The work we do:\nGrowthStrategy &\; Implementation\nLarge Scale Transformation\nM&\;A\, Carve-out and Post-Merger Integration\nOperations\nMerchandising &\; Assortment Optimization\nInterim Leadership\n Who will you be working with?We are not a typical consulting firm.

Attendees learn from leading positive organizational scholars and connect with our community of academics\, students\, staff\, and leaders. \n \nAbout the talk: \nCynicism is an understandable response to a world full of injustice and inequality. But in many cases\, it is misplaced. Dozens of studies find that people fail to realize how kind\, generous\, and open-minded others really are. Cynical thinking deepens social problems: when we expect the worst in people\, we often bring it out of them. We don’t have to remain stuck in this cynicism trap.\n\nJoin Jamil Zaki\, author of  \"Hope for Cynics: The Surprising Science of Human Goodness\,\" in a fireside chat with Ethan Kross to learn the secret for beating back cynicism: hopeful skepticism—thinking critically about people and our problems\, while simultaneously acknowledging our power. Through science and storytelling\, Jamil will share how hopeful skepticism can strengthen relationships\, schools\, businesses\, and social movements. This philosophy isn’t about naïve optimism\; it’s about magnifying the good in people while remaining critical. Hopeful skepticism honors humanity’s strengths while confronting our weaknesses head-on.\n \nAbout Zaki: \nJamil Zaki is a full professor of psychology at Stanford University. He and his colleagues study social connection\, including empathy\, cooperation\, and trust (see ssnl.stanford.edu for details)\, and develop tools to help people connect more effectively.\n\nDr. Zaki received his BA in cognitive neuroscience from Boston University and his PhD in psychology from Columbia University and conducted postdoctoral research at the Harvard Center for Brain Science. He has published over 100 peer-reviewed articles and received about two dozen awards from scientific associations and universities. In 2019 he was awarded the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE)\, the US Government’s highest honor for researchers at his career stage.\n\nHost: \nEthan Kross\, Faculty Associate\, Center for Positive Organizations\; Professor of Psychology and Management & Organizations\, University of Michigan\n \nSeries Sponsors: \nThe Center for Positive Organizations thanks the Sanger Leadership Center\, Tauber Institute for Global Operations\, and Samuel Zell & Robert H.

These measurements are performed at extremely high magnetic fields and as a function of temperature enabling us to investigate their full phase diagram. \n\nUnlike these conventional excitons formed from extended Bloch states\, excitonic bound states from intrinsically many body localized states are rare and peculiar. Such a spin–orbit-entangled exciton state appears below the Néel temperature of 150 K in NiPS3\, an antiferromagnetic van der Waals material. This exciton is thought to arise intrinsically from the many-body states of the Zhang–Rice state. The excitonic transition shows an extremely narrow linewidth and was attributed to a transition from a Zhang–Rice triplet to a Zhang–Rice singlet. \n\nThese excitons are thought to be coupled to zigzag antiferromagnetic order in this layered antiferromagnetic insulator. The exciton exhibits a narrow photoluminescence linewidth of roughly ~350 μeV with near-unity linear polarization. Furthermore\, this excitonic transition shows strong linear dichroism over a broad spectral range. In addition\, over ten exciton-A1g-phonon bound states on the high-energy side of the exciton resonance were observed and were assigned to a strong modulation of the ligand-to-metal charge-transfer energy by electron–lattice interactions. By applying an in-plane magnetic field\, manipulation of the photoluminescence polarization can be achieved. We combine different spectroscopic tools such as linear and time-resolved spectroscopy in magnetic fields up to 25 Tesla to understand the coherent properties of this exitonic transition. Magnetic field and temperature dependent four-wave mixing\, and multidimensional spectroscopy measurements will be discussed.

Bioinformatics data suggest hundreds-of-thousands of novel NPs remain to be discovered. Unfortunately\, many NPs are not produced under standard laboratory conditions. We are developing methods to access NPs from cryptic biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) utilizing a combination of bioinformatics\, synthetic chemistry\, and biocatalysis. Specifically\, we are focused in two areas: cyclic peptides and γ-butyrolactone (GBL) hormones. For cyclic peptides\, we recently developed SNaPP (Synthetic Natural Product Inspired Cyclic Peptides). SNaPP expedites bioactive molecule discovery by combining bioinformatics predictions of non-ribosomal peptide synthetases with chemical synthesis of the predicted natural products. SNaPP enabled us to discover several bioactive cyclic peptides. However\, it also opened our eyes to the challenge of synthesizing small cyclic peptides. Using the results from SNaPP\, we identified a PBP-like cyclase capable of performing challenging cyclizations\, such as for tetrapeptides with a greatly expanded substrate scope that could have great utility as a biocatalyst. For GBLs\, these molecules have previously been found to induce production of many bioactive NPs. Over half of Streptomyces strains are predicted to have GBL signaling pathways. Unfortunately\, only a few GBLs and their cognate repressors are known because 1) GBLs are produced at very low quantities and 2) no rapid\, efficient assays exist to identify them. We bioinformatically predicted previously uncharacterized GBL receptors that we predict bind to known GBLs or close derivatives. We have developed synthetic and biocatalytic methods to access GBLs and derivatives in fewer steps and improved stereoselectivies. Finally\, we have developed GFP-based assays that allow rapid identification of active hormones. This information will allow us to further explore the addition of exogenous hormones as a method to induce production of cryptic biosynthetic gene clusters.

The tropical connection is used to produce Lorentzian polynomials from discrete convex functions\, leading for example to a short proof of Mason's conjecture on the number of independent sets of a matroid. This lecture series will explore the intricate relationships among Grassmannians over hyperfields\, dequantization processes\, and the theory of Lorentzian polynomials. In ongoing collaborative work with Matt Baker\, Mario Kummer\, and Oliver Lorscheid\, we extend the connection between Lorentzian polynomials and discrete convex functions to matroids over triangular hyperfields\, as introduced by Viro. This extension deepens our understanding of the space of Lorentzian polynomials\, revealing a complex interplay among analysis\, combinatorics\, and geometry.\n\nThe three lectures in this series are designed to be accessible to a broad audience and appropriate for a Department Colloquium.\n\nAmong his many honors\, Prof. Huh is a recipient of the Fields Medal (2022)\, the MacArthur Fellowship (2022)\, and the New Horizons in Mathematics Prize (2019).

He chaired Friends of the Earth International (2008-2012)\, was a co-recipient of the 2010 Right Livelihood Award\, also known as the “Alternative Nobel Prize\,” and received the Rafto Human Rights Prize in 2012. Bassey has received honorary doctorate degrees from University of York (UK) in 2019 and from York University (Canada) in 2023. Bassey’s books include *To Cook a Continent: Destructive Extraction* and *The Climate Crisis in Africa and Oil Politics: Echoes of Ecological War*. His poetry collections include: *We Thought It Was Oil But It Was Blood* (1998)\, *I Will Not Dance to Your Beat* (2010)\, and *I See the Invisible* (2024). \n\n“As an architect\, poet\, writer\, and human rights advocate\, Nnimmo Bassey works to address root cause issues driving climate migration\, environmental and social impacts of extractive production\, and hunger in the Niger Delta. His commitment to socio-ecological justice connects large-scale issues of climate change\, exploitation of natural resources\, and political/corporate intransigence to the lives of individuals in the Niger Delta and beyond\,” said Sioban Harlow\, Professor Emerita of Epidemiology and Global Public Health and chair of the Wallenberg Medal Executive Committee. “Just as Raoul Wallenberg trained as an architect at the University of Michigan before bringing his multifaceted skills to humanitarian work\, Bassey’s background as an architect undergirds his environmental leadership.”\n\n______________________________\n\nThe Wallenberg Medal and Lecture honors the legacy of Raoul Wallenberg who graduated from U-M’s College of Architecture in 1935 and saved the lives of tens of thousands of Hungarian Jews near the end of World War II. In 1944\, at the request of Jewish organizations and the American War Refugee Board\, the Swedish Foreign Ministry sent Wallenberg on a rescue mission to Budapest. Over the course of six months\, Wallenberg issued thousands of protective passports and placed many thousands of Jews in safe houses throughout the besieged city. He confronted Hungarian and German forces to secure the release of Jews\, whom he claimed were under Swedish protection\, and saved more than 80\,000 lives.\n\nAdministered by the University’s Donia Human Rights Center\, U-M awards the Wallenberg Medal to those who\, through their actions and personal commitment\, perpetuate Wallenberg’s extraordinary accomplishments and human values\, and demonstrate the capacity of the human spirit to stand up for the helpless\, to defend the integrity of the powerless\, and to speak out on behalf of the voiceless.\n\nThe Wallenberg Medal and Lecture ceremony is free and open to the public. Tickets are not required. Please direct any inquiries about the event and requests for event accommodations to wallenberglecture@umich.edu or 734-936-3973.

For over 60 years\, the region has been host to the activities of multinational oil corporations who partner with the Nigerian state in exploiting oil for profit. Oil was first discovered in the region in 1956\, and the first shipment of the commodity to the international market occurred in 1958 with a consignment of about 5\,000 barrels per day (bpd). Production peaked at about 2.5 million bpd\, but today\, because of community protests\, insurgency\, and general disruption to the activities of corporations\, the number hovers between 1.2 million to 1.4 million bpd. While the state has benefited immensely from oil production\, the same cannot be said of the communities that are hosts to pipelines\, flow stations\, and all of the oil infrastructure that has come to define the entire region. Loss of livelihood\, heavily polluted environment\, death\, and displacement have characterized the region’s interaction with multinational oil corporations such as Shell\, Chevron\, ExxonMobil\, Eni\, Total Energies\, etc.\n\nThis exhibition is a bold attempt to shed light on what it means to live in an oil extractive enclave like the Niger Delta region of Nigeria. The images showcase the lives lived\, the loss\, perseverance\, and determination to survive.\n\nThe exhibition is divided into two parts. The first part of the exhibition is displayed in the DAAS gallery with the sub-theme “People Crossings and the Dangers of Oil Pollution” and is a demonstration of the everyday lived experiences of the inhabitants of many of the enclaves of the Niger Delta. As depicted in the photos\, people cross polluted rivers to go to school and in search of a means of survival.\n\nGallery visitors are invited to cross from the DAAS Gallery to the International Institute Gallery on the 5th floor of Weiser Hall to see the second part of the exhibition\, “Living\, Community\, and Polluted Environment.” This portion of the exhibition demonstrates community resilience in the face of environmental persecution. It shows everyday life amid oil infrastructure that litters the entire landscape of many of the communities in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria.\n\n— - - -\nNnimmo Bassey is an architect\, environmental justice activist\, writer\, and poet. His latest poetry collection is titled I See the Invisible (2023). Other collections include I Will Not Dance to Your Beat(2011) and We Thought It Was Oil But It Was Blood (2002). He is director of the ecological think-tank\, Health of Mother Earth Foundation (HOMEF).\n\nOmolade Adunbi is a professor of Anthropology\, Afroamerican and African Studies and Law at the University of Michigan. His research examines the dynamics of power\, natural resource extractive practices\, governance\, human and environmental rights\, culture\, transnational institutions\, multinational corporations\, and the postcolonial state. His latest book\, Enclaves of Exception: Special Economic Zones and Extractive Practices in Nigeria (Indiana University Press\,2022)\, offers a new approach to exploring the relationship between oil and technologies of extraction and their interrelatedness to China’s interest in free trade zones and its impact on local livelihoods and environmental practices.\n\n*Nnimmo Bassey’s photos courtesy of the Health of Mother Earth Foundation (HOMEF).* UID:126212-21856708@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/126212 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:African Studies,African Studies Center,Exhibition,International LOCATION:Weiser Hall - 555, International Institute Gallery (5th Floor) CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240830T112455 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240911T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240911T200000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mrs. Dalloway and WWI: Home Front and War Front DESCRIPTION:This exhibit explores the characters of Mrs. Dalloway through the lens of WWI and its aftershocks.

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:107870-21817908@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:20240130T121551 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240911T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240911T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. 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:84303-21621387@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:20240926T063340 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240911T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240911T120000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:WiSTEM2D Resume & Elevator Pitch Workshop DESCRIPTION:Learn best practices from J&\;J scientists for creating effective resumes and elevator pitches.

Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home\, placemaking\, labor\, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body\, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade\, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley\, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.\nArtist’s bio:\nMichelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist\, educator\, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas\, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting\, bead weaving\, embroidery\, jewelry\, transparent film installations\, painting\, ceramics\, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story\, re-make\, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx\, Chicanx\, Mexican\, and Texican peoples. \n\nRecently\, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan\, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania)\, Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen\, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas\, TX).

Reporting From Ukraine as a Black\, Independent War Correspondent DESCRIPTION:When Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022\, independent journalist Terrell Jermaine Starr knew he had to be creative with his storytelling. Otherwise\, his reporting would never compete with that of the hundreds of journalists who helicoptered in from around the world. Using his area studies training\, years of reporting on the ground\, and unique experience as a Black American man\, Starr was able to leverage his social media platforms and distinctive storytelling style to make his audiences connect with Ukrainians on a personal level. His use of social media\, coupled with a willingness to break traditional reporting norms attracted every major media outlet in the world\, leading to appearances on MSNBC\, CNN\, BBC\, and many more.\n \n Starr’s talk will focus on the stories he covered during the start of the war and his ongoing reporting from Ukraine more than two years later. He will share why he chose these stories\, seen by millions of people online and on cable news\, as well as how he uses his personal experience with American racism at home to tell the story of Russian colonialism in Ukraine.\n \n Terrell Jermaine Starr is host and founder of Black Diplomats YouTube\, where he publishes weekly feature-length videos of his travels documenting life in war-time Ukraine and his reports interviewing people of color across Europe. He has an MA in Russian\, East European\, and Eurasian Studies and an M.S. in News-Editorial Journalism\, both from the University of Illinois. He has a BA from Philander Smith College\, an HBCU in Little Rock\, Arkansas.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu.

We will identify noninvertible chiral symmetries in certain flavorful Z' extensions of the Standard Model\, and our understanding of generalized symmetry breaking will lead us to short-distance theories of gauged non-Abelian flavor where nonperturbative effects can resolve important naturalness questions. For the leptons we will find naturally exponentially small Dirac neutrino masses\, and in the quark sector we will construct a massless down-type quarks solution to strong CP in color-flavor unification. Intriguingly\, the fact that we have three generations of fermions plays a crucial role in the existence of these noninvertible symmetries.

These materials are characterized by local\, quantized degrees of freedom (spin\, charge order\, orbital polarization) which give rise to emergent phenomena such as superconductivity\, magnetism\, metal-insulator transitions.\n\nTraditionally\, the study of this class of materials has been focused transition metal oxides\, and the d-orbital states on the transition metal ion\, following the discovery of superconductivity in cuprates\, with a more recent focus on moire systems.\n\nI will describe - based on computational and theoretical tools - how the interaction between local crystal structure motifs and electronic properties influences the formation of novel quantum states with various geometries. This relationship determines not just which quantum states are possible\, but also in some cases which materials are stable. Examples will include a range of materials\, from oxide compounds to Kagome halides. Additionally\, I will demonstrate how techniques originally developed for studying quantum materials can be applied more broadly\, such as in the case of photoluminescent Bismuth oxyhalide materials.\n\nFinally\, I will show how machine learning can be used to assist at all steps of discovery of quantum materials\, from their identification to proposed synthesis pathways.

She will present:\n\n“The Shift to Stock-Based Compensation and Gender Inequality in Wealth in the United States”\n“This study identifies a novel explanation for gender inequality in wealth in the United States\; namely\, the important role of stock-based compensation. In the course of the financialization of the U.S. economy\, American firms increasingly provided workers with compensation based in part on company stock\, and 23 percent of private-sector employees now receive stock-based compensation\,” Angelina explained. “Compared to regular cash wages\, stock-based compensation may facilitate greater wealth accumulation due to higher rates of value appreciation over time\, additional capital income through dividend payments\, and more favorable treatment by the U.S. tax system. Consistent with this argument\, analysis of the Survey of Consumer Finances data finds that employees with stock-based compensation accumulate more wealth than those without it. However\, its wealth benefits are higher among men than women. Analysis of the NBER survey of employees with stock-based compensation shows that men are more likely to utilize its wealth-building potential than women\, thus contributing to gender inequality in wealth.”\n\nFollowing Angelina’s presentation\, we will be holding our annual Open House where you can come and see what we’ve been building\, meet the team\, and learn more about the research we are doing. Refreshments will be served and you will have a chance to win some new CID swag.

What a game!” They might also make a joke aboutthe long line you’re both in\, or comment on the current situation.If you are interested in learning more about \"small talk\"\, now it’syour chance to sign up for this workshop on how to navigate small talk asan international student.

In this talk\, we’ll take a more in-depth look at hyperplane arrangements with a focus on their characteristic polynomials. While initially defined in terms the point count over F_q\, the characteristic polynomial can be computed entirely combinatorially from the intersection poset. Moreover\, in certain situations\, the characteristic polynomial has a physical interpretation\; over R\, it gives the number of connected components and\, over C\, it gives the Betti numbers. This talk will highlight these results and some of the techniques used to prove them.

DESCRIPTION:To answer the question posed in the title\, we first need to define what we mean by \"better.\" In this talk\, we will look at the tournament designs of football and table tennis from an optimal stopping perspective. In particular\, we consider the problem of finding the optimal scheme for a knock-out tournament with 2^n players\, aiming at determining the top player. In each game in the tournament\, we observe a real-time score\, modeled by a Brownian motion with drift where the drift reflects the players' relative abilities. We can stop observing the game when the outcome seems clear and decide who advances. However\, the longer a match is played\, the more cost one needs to pay. We formulate and solve a stopping problem to minimise the probability of eliminating the best player while keeping the cost of observation low. The result will tell us how to smartly distribute the time cost across tournament games\, and thus\, reveals which sport has a superior design. Additionally\, we discuss a few variants of the problem and some possible generalisations.

The tropical connection is used to produce Lorentzian polynomials from discrete convex functions\, leading for example to a short proof of Mason's conjecture on the number of independent sets of a matroid. This lecture series will explore the intricate relationships among Grassmannians over hyperfields\, dequantization processes\, and the theory of Lorentzian polynomials. In ongoing collaborative work with Matt Baker\, Mario Kummer\, and Oliver Lorscheid\, we extend the connection between Lorentzian polynomials and discrete convex functions to matroids over triangular hyperfields\, as introduced by Viro. This extension deepens our understanding of the space of Lorentzian polynomials\, revealing a complex interplay among analysis\, combinatorics\, and geometry.\n\nThe three lectures in this series are designed to be accessible to a broad audience and appropriate for a Department Colloquium.\n\nAmong his many honors\, Prof. Huh is a recipient of the Fields Medal (2022)\, the MacArthur Fellowship (2022)\, and the New Horizons in Mathematics Prize (2019). He received his PhD in Mathematics from U-M in 2014.

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

ELSE LECTURE IN THE HUMANITIES\n\nThe friendship letters of Johann Joachim Winckelmann (1717 – 1768)\, the so-called ‘father’ of classical art history\, merit attention as an important corpus within canons of gay male history constructed by activists from the 19th century onwards and as a case study of the afterlife of classical literature in vernacular writing of the late early modern era. In this lecture\, which forms part of a project on the landscape of Latin\, Greek\, and vernacular learning that lies behind Winckelmann’s correspondence\, Professor Harloe will explore the importance of Winckelmann’s reading of Pindar to his idealisation of ancient Greece and his framing of his relationship to one epistolary friend\, the Livonian Grand Tourist\, Reinhold von Berg.\n\nProfessor Katherine Harloe is the Director of the Institute of Classical Studies within the School of Advanced Study at the University of London. She represents the Institute both at home and abroad\, guiding its policies and development in consultation with colleagues to ensure that the Institute fulfills its role in promoting and facilitating research in Classics and related disciplines\, nationally and internationally. As the Director\, Professor Harloe also serves as the General Editor of the Institute's Publications.

For over 60 years\, the region has been host to the activities of multinational oil corporations who partner with the Nigerian state in exploiting oil for profit. Oil was first discovered in the region in 1956\, and the first shipment of the commodity to the international market occurred in 1958 with a consignment of about 5\,000 barrels per day (bpd). Production peaked at about 2.5 million bpd\, but today\, because of community protests\, insurgency\, and general disruption to the activities of corporations\, the number hovers between 1.2 million to 1.4 million bpd. While the state has benefited immensely from oil production\, the same cannot be said of the communities that are hosts to pipelines\, flow stations\, and all of the oil infrastructure that has come to define the entire region. Loss of livelihood\, heavily polluted environment\, death\, and displacement have characterized the region’s interaction with multinational oil corporations such as Shell\, Chevron\, ExxonMobil\, Eni\, Total Energies\, etc.\n\nThis exhibition is a bold attempt to shed light on what it means to live in an oil extractive enclave like the Niger Delta region of Nigeria. The images showcase the lives lived\, the loss\, perseverance\, and determination to survive.\n\nThe exhibition is divided into two parts. The first part of the exhibition is displayed in the DAAS gallery with the sub-theme “People Crossings and the Dangers of Oil Pollution” and is a demonstration of the everyday lived experiences of the inhabitants of many of the enclaves of the Niger Delta. As depicted in the photos\, people cross polluted rivers to go to school and in search of a means of survival.\n\nGallery visitors are invited to cross from the DAAS Gallery to the International Institute Gallery on the 5th floor of Weiser Hall to see the second part of the exhibition\, “Living\, Community\, and Polluted Environment.” This portion of the exhibition demonstrates community resilience in the face of environmental persecution. It shows everyday life amid oil infrastructure that litters the entire landscape of many of the communities in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria.\n\n— - - -\nNnimmo Bassey is an architect\, environmental justice activist\, writer\, and poet.

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:84303-21621388@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:20240927T123341 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240912T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240912T113000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Fall Into a New Adventure: Teach in Alaska!

In this talk\, I will discuss our recent investigation on “selective radiance\,” a phenomenon in which an atomic excitation couples to a specific photonic channel with collective enhancement (called ‘superradiance’) but to all other channels with suppression (‘subradiance’). Following our recent experimental realization of cold atom trapping on a nanophotonic microring resonator\, we study how a dense atomic ensemble collectively couples to a whispering-gallery-mode in the resonator and to other free space modes. I will discuss the decay dynamics of an atomic ensemble following long and short excitation pulses\, with the former driving the system into a steady state and the latter into a so-called timed-Dicke state. I will discuss the potential of our platform to realize selective radiance in an atom array and explore collective quantum optics with trapped atoms coupled to nanophotonic circuits. \n\nBio. Dr. Hung received his PhD in Physics at the University of Chicago in 2011\, where he developed an in-situ microscopy technique on two-dimensional atomic quantum gases to study quantum phase transitions. Before joining Purdue in 2015 as a faculty member\, he held a postdoctoral fellowship at the California Institute of Technology and developed one of the first photonic crystal atom-photon interfaces for quantum optics. His research directions at Purdue University span from studying out-of-equilibrium many-body physics using atomic quantum gases to interfacing ultracold atoms with nanophotonic circuits for quantum optics and many-body physics with photon-mediated long-range interactions. He is a recipient of the AFOSR Young Investigator Award and the NSF CAREER award.

Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home\, placemaking\, labor\, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body\, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade\, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley\, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.\nArtist’s bio:\nMichelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist\, educator\, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas\, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting\, bead weaving\, embroidery\, jewelry\, transparent film installations\, painting\, ceramics\, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story\, re-make\, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx\, Chicanx\, Mexican\, and Texican peoples. \n\nRecently\, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan\, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania)\, Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen\, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas\, TX).

Less than a century later\, the randoseru has come to signify an inherent quality of capitalist culture\, namely the intimate interconnections of consumer acts and emotional life\, particularly the expression and experience of nostalgia. I propose that this nostalgia has been crafted through the social relations by which the randoseru is being circulated while specific notions of craft\, childhood\, and immortality are being reiterated.\n \n Sabine Frühstück is Distinguished Professor and the Koichi Takashima Chair in Japanese Cultural Studies at the University of California\, Santa Barbara.

Our group is focused on applying principles from metabolic engineering and biocatalysis towards the design and construction of novel biosynthetic pathways for specified target compounds. This “retro-biosynthetic design” approach is aided by advancements in the development of new tools under the umbrella of synthetic biology that facilitate re-engineering of biological systems. As new pathways are designed and constructed\, typical challenges such as low product yields and titers can hamper development of commercially-relevant processes. The sheer volume of chemicals that ultimately need to be produced also requires the use of a broader range of feedstocks than those traditional employed in bioprocesses. In this talk\, I will review our group’s sustained efforts to both produce novel compounds through biological synthesis and develop strategies to address the inherent limitations.\n\nSpeaker Bio: Kristala L.J. Prather is the Arthur D. Little Professor and Department Head in the Department of Chemical Engineering at MIT. She received an S.B. degree from MIT in 1994 and Ph.D. from the University of California\, Berkeley (1999)\, and worked 4 years in BioProcess Research and Development at the Merck Research Labs prior to joining the faculty of MIT. Her research interests are centered on the design and assembly of recombinant microorganisms for the production of small molecules\, with additional efforts in novel bioprocess design approaches. Prather’s honors include the Charles Thom Award of the Society for Industrial Microbiology and Biotechnology (2017)\, the Andreas Acrivos Award for Professional Progress in Chemical Engineering of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE\, 2021)\, and the Marvin J. Johnson Award (BIOT Division\, American Chemical Society\, 2024). Additional honors include selection as a Fellow of the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study (2014-2015)\, the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS\; 2018)\, the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering (AIMBE\; 2020)\, and AIChE (2020).

There may be times when complex structures originate all at once. When such complex novelties first originate they must become incorporated into an integrated system to be rendered fully functional. Thus\, morphological integration is key at the outset of acquisition of morphological novelties. Cypriniforms are a diverse group of freshwater fishes characterized by several trophic novelties that include: kinethmoid-mediated premaxillary protrusion\, a muscular palatal organ\, hypertrophied lower pharyngeal jaws that masticate against the base of the neurocranium\, and an epibranchial organ used to aggregate small food particles. In this talk I will discuss our findings regarding the anatomy\, development\, and function of some of these trophic novelties.

He serves a guest editor for the Atmospheric Measurement Technique and Environmental Research Letter. He is also a member of the Science and Technology Committee and the National Council on Climate and Air Quality (NCCA) of Korea.\n\nAbstract:\nSatellite Remote Sensing of Atmospheric Composition from Geostationary Earth Orbit over Asia – My journey from planetary to Earth atmosphere\n\nFeaturing Dr. Jhoon Kim\, Lee Youn Jae Fellow Professor of Atmospheric Sciences\, Yonsei University\, Seoul\, Korea\n\nAtmospheric composition including aerosols\, ozone\, air pollutants\, and greenhouse gases have been observed extensively from Low Earth Orbit (LEO) providing one to two observations per day. Meteorological satellites have provided aerosol optical properties from both LEO and Geostationary Earth Orbit (GEO) for extended period. Geostationary Ocean Color Imager 2 (GOCI-II) and Advanced Meteorological Imager (AMI) have provided aerosol dataset from the same GK-2 platform. With the recent launch of the Geostationary Environment Monitoring Spectrometer (GEMS) onboard the GK-2B in 2020\, we now can observe both aerosols and trace gases at unprecedented spatiotemporal resolution from GEO. GEMS\, the first ultraviolet-visible hyperspectral instrument for air quality observation from GEO has provided column amounts of atmospheric pollutants (O3\, NO2\, SO2\, HCHO\, CHOCHO\, and aerosols) every hour to capture their diurnal variations. Details of the GEMS data products are presented\, with validations\, and case studies of volcanic eruption\, dust\, wildfire\, urban pollution\, and industrial activities. In version 3\, there are noticeable improvements in trace gases from updated AMF\, fitting window\, the separation of stratospheric/tropospheric components etc. Calibration/validation activities are critical to diagnose and improve the overall data quality including the ASIA-AQ\, Pandora Asia network (PAN)\, PEGASOS\, GMAP/SIJAQ\, ACCLIP\, and international CAL/VAL team works. The GEMS retrievals indicate good agreements from the validation campaigns\, but still require further improvements in L1 processing as well. Faster sampling rates at higher spatial resolution from GEO increase the probability of finding cloud-free pixels\, leading to more observations of aerosols and trace gases than have been possible from LEO. GEMS will form the GEO AQ satellite constellation with the NASA’s Tropospheric Emissions: Monitoring of Pollution (TEMPO) launched in 2023 and planned ESA’s Sentinel-4 in 2025\, as recognized by the Committee on Earth Observation Satellites (CEOS).

The two main challenges for DBS standard-of-care are rooted in the accurate positioning of the DBS leads during intraoperative implantation and the postoperative programming of the implanted DBS device\, both needed to achieve the sought optimal therapeutic benefit. However\, both processes rely on subjective patient exams\, on expert neurophysiologists to optimize implant trajectory and programming\, and on time-consuming trial-and-error approaches. Furthermore\, existing commercially available stimulation approaches (continuous stimulation\, also known as open-loop stimulation) lack integration with patient behavior and environmental factors. We sought to address these shortcomings in the ET population\, by demonstrating the feasibility of on-demand responsive stimulation using only thalamocortical neuromarkers that modulate movement related-behavior. This led to the design and implementation of the first fully embedded closed-loop algorithm for chronic neurostimulators (CL-DBS) in humans affected by ET\, which achieved an equally effective treatment compared to current DBS approaches while having a more efficient stimulation energy profile. Furthermore\, CL-DBS demonstrated potential in decreasing DBS-related side effects (e.g. speech impairments). Additionally\, the unique window provided by intraoperative acute recordings\, allowed us to further our understanding of the thalamocortical network. We sought to improve intraoperative DBS implantation for the PD population by leveraging a novel biomarker\, DBS local evoked potential (DLEP)\, which strongly correlates with the location of the typical target-subregions of the nuclei of interest\, the subthalamic nucleus (STN) and globus pallidus internus (GPi). Most importantly\, the proposed methodology requires no patient interaction and could be leveraged for implementing an objective\, real-time guided placement of the DBS lead\, with a less time-consuming process and subjectivity compared to traditional mapping procedures.\n\nBio:\nDr. Enrico Opri is an Assistant Professor at University of Michigan within the Department of Biomedical Engineering. He is a core faculty within the Biointerfaces Institute and he is affiliated with the Michigan Neuroscience Institute (MNI). His lab focuses on understanding how stimulation can alter neural circuits affected in neurological disorders\, with the overall goal to identify neurological markers that can be leveraged to improve and enhance current state of the art therapies within movement disorders. He earned his PhD in Biomedical Engineering at University of Florida. Later he completed his postdoctoral training at Emory University.\n\nZoom:\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/94337625486 UID:125493-21855193@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/125493 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biointerfaces,Biology,biomedical,biomedical engineering,Bioninterfaces,Biosciences,Biotechnology,bme,engineer,engineering,Medicine,Michigan Engineering,Research,seminar LOCATION:Lurie Biomedical Engineering (formerly ATL) - 1130 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240927T123314 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240912T153000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240912T163000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:EY Careers in Tax: Diversified Staff and Intern Group DESCRIPTION:Our Tax Diversified program (Diversified Staff Group) provides young Tax professionals the opportunity to learn about EY Tax while balancing both the breadth and depth of their experiences.

Young planets are sculpted by interactions with their host star\, other planets in the system\, and their greater environment. Large populations of mature (>1 Gyr) exoplanets\, like those from the Kepler mission\, provide useful but indirect constraints on the relative importance of such evolutionary processes. Because the first few hundred million years of a planet's life are the most formative\, studies of young (<1 Gyr) planets yield more direct information on exoplanet evolution\, providing an opportunity to observe such processes in action. Identifying and characterizing young planets poses significant challenges\, but the advent of K2 and TESS data\, coupled with new planet-search methods\, has enabled the discovery of dozens of transiting planets in 2–700 Myr clusters\, moving groups\, and star-forming regions. The statistical properties of these systems reveal that young planets are larger than their older counterparts and offer insights into the timescales of planetary migration. Furthermore\, with the aid of transmission spectroscopy from JWST\, we have our first glimpses into the atmospheres of these infant planets\, which have already provided a wealth of information regarding the structure and composition of a subset of the youngest planets.

Dillard makes the case for wide frameworks to conceptualize ideological tensions within the Black political culture that sustained movement activism. A wide history\, she contends\, has ample room for African American critics who occupied center-to-right ideological positions. In aspiring to wideness she provides an entangled history foregrounding Black conservatives within debates—not only about strategies for change but also over the meanings of belonging and home—that shaped the movement\, on the one hand\, and impacted the evolution of American conservatism\, on the other.\n\nAngela D. Dillard is the Richard A. Meisler Collegiate Professor of Afroamerican & African Studies\, and History. She specializes in American intellectual history\, particularly around issues of race\, religion and politics — on both the Left and the Right sides of the political spectrum. A former chair of the UM Department of History she currently serves as the university’s inaugural vice provost for undergraduate education -- orchestrating strategic initiatives to enrich the academic experience of Michigan's 32\,000+ undergraduate students – and is completing her third book\, \"A Different Shade of Freedom.\"\n\nThis event presented by the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

The tropical connection is used to produce Lorentzian polynomials from discrete convex functions\, leading for example to a short proof of Mason's conjecture on the number of independent sets of a matroid. This lecture series will explore the intricate relationships among Grassmannians over hyperfields\, dequantization processes\, and the theory of Lorentzian polynomials. In ongoing collaborative work with Matt Baker\, Mario Kummer\, and Oliver Lorscheid\, we extend the connection between Lorentzian polynomials and discrete convex functions to matroids over triangular hyperfields\, as introduced by Viro. This extension deepens our understanding of the space of Lorentzian polynomials\, revealing a complex interplay among analysis\, combinatorics\, and geometry.\n\nThe three lectures in this series are designed to be accessible to a broad audience and appropriate for a Department Colloquium.\n\nAmong his many honors\, Prof. Huh is a recipient of the Fields Medal (2022)\, the MacArthur Fellowship (2022)\, and the New Horizons in Mathematics Prize (2019).

My title raises two questions:\n\n1) Starting from a general perspective of asking how soundscapes and sonic intimacies are experienced by indigenous people\, and to bring this within an explicitly ethnomusicological framework\, how are musical soundscapes and musical sonic intimacies experienced by Indigenous peoples?\n\n2) How are musical soundscapes and musical sonic intimacies archived in indigenous bodies? My tactic\, here\, is to work outward from my own positionality as a Native Hawaiian woman raised in a Hawaiian household and shaped by decades of research on Hawaiian music and dance performance. I propose to outline my thoughts by strolling down a path of discovery. I invite you to join me as we gather bits and pieces along the way\, so that we might work together toward a view of an ethnomusicological practice that is resonant with Indigenous ways of being in the world.\n\nAmy Kuʻuleialoha Stillman is Arthur F.

Join us on the Diag\, or\, in the event of rain\, in the Shapiro Gallery (third floor Shapiro Library).\n\nIt's widely known that Virginia Woolf was a writer\, but she also started a press out of her home with her husband\, Leonard\, called the Hogarth Press. The couple bought a small letterpress and set it up in their dining room\, producing many of Woolf's books\, including \"Mrs. Dalloway.\" Hogarth Press ran for nearly 30 years before being absorbed by a larger publisher. Having their own press allowed the Woolfs to decide what got published and get it out into the world directly\, something still shared by small presses today. \n\nThis printing event by the library's Book Arts Studio is in conjunction with the exhibit Mrs. Dalloway and WWI: Home Front and War Front (https://myumi.ch/G4ewE)\, on display in the Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room from September 3 - December 13\, 2024.

She writes\, records\, performs\, and creates paper sculptures that tell stories\, document history\, honor Amazons\, and protest injustice. She has forged her butch identity in cardboard\, on stage\, and on album covers. As a teenager she attended The Feminist Studio Workshop at The Woman’s Building where she focused on songwriting and silk-screening. In the late 1970s\, she was a member of bands Nervous Gender and Catholic Discipline in the Los Angeles punk rock scene. As a reaction to punk violence and use of the swastika\, she wrote a song called “Take off Your Swastika” and began identifying on stage as The All-American Jewish Lesbian Folksinger and released her first solo album Folksinger in 1985. She has performed in venues across North America\, Great Britain and Europe including The Getty Center\, Irving Plaza\, Metropol\, and Hammersmith Odeon. She is a Teaching Artist at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Phranc is currently working on a multi-media memoir\, “Phranc Talk.”\n\n\"The Butch Closet\,\" an installation hosted by the Institute for the Humanities gallery\, is a retrospective spanning over 40 years of her life as a queer artist and Cardboard Cobbler. Phranc contextualizes her experience within the historical backdrop of second-wave feminism and queer activism\, exploring the evolution of her butch persona alongside societal shifts in gender identity. Using paper\, cardboard\, thread\, and found materials\, Phranc meticulously recreates personal objects like her Baby Quilt and Lamb Chop Halloween Costume. These handcrafted pieces delve into themes of memory\, personal history\, and nostalgia\, tracing her life against the backdrop of LA's artistic\, musical\, and revolutionary scenes from the 1960s to the present.\n\n“The Butch Closet” opens directly following this event at the Institute for the Humanities gallery with an opening reception and artist meet and greet.\nPhranc is part of Gender Euphoria\, a semester-long explosion of queer artists and art-making. These performances\, exhibitions\, conversations\, and provocations explore how to make art and find queer joy in a state of emergency.\n\nPresented in partnership with the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities. This project was made possible by a grant from the Arts Initiative at the University of Michigan.\n\nSeries presenting partners: Detroit PBS and PBS Books. Media partner: Michigan Radio.

For over 60 years\, the region has been host to the activities of multinational oil corporations who partner with the Nigerian state in exploiting oil for profit. Oil was first discovered in the region in 1956\, and the first shipment of the commodity to the international market occurred in 1958 with a consignment of about 5\,000 barrels per day (bpd). Production peaked at about 2.5 million bpd\, but today\, because of community protests\, insurgency\, and general disruption to the activities of corporations\, the number hovers between 1.2 million to 1.4 million bpd. While the state has benefited immensely from oil production\, the same cannot be said of the communities that are hosts to pipelines\, flow stations\, and all of the oil infrastructure that has come to define the entire region. Loss of livelihood\, heavily polluted environment\, death\, and displacement have characterized the region’s interaction with multinational oil corporations such as Shell\, Chevron\, ExxonMobil\, Eni\, Total Energies\, etc.\n\nThis exhibition is a bold attempt to shed light on what it means to live in an oil extractive enclave like the Niger Delta region of Nigeria. The images showcase the lives lived\, the loss\, perseverance\, and determination to survive.\n\nThe exhibition is divided into two parts. The first part of the exhibition is displayed in the DAAS gallery with the sub-theme “People Crossings and the Dangers of Oil Pollution” and is a demonstration of the everyday lived experiences of the inhabitants of many of the enclaves of the Niger Delta. As depicted in the photos\, people cross polluted rivers to go to school and in search of a means of survival.\n\nGallery visitors are invited to cross from the DAAS Gallery to the International Institute Gallery on the 5th floor of Weiser Hall to see the second part of the exhibition\, “Living\, Community\, and Polluted Environment.” This portion of the exhibition demonstrates community resilience in the face of environmental persecution. It shows everyday life amid oil infrastructure that litters the entire landscape of many of the communities in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria.\n\n— - - -\nNnimmo Bassey is an architect\, environmental justice activist\, writer\, and poet. His latest poetry collection is titled I See the Invisible (2023). Other collections include I Will Not Dance to Your Beat(2011) and We Thought It Was Oil But It Was Blood (2002). He is director of the ecological think-tank\, Health of Mother Earth Foundation (HOMEF).\n\nOmolade Adunbi is a professor of Anthropology\, Afroamerican and African Studies and Law at the University of Michigan. His research examines the dynamics of power\, natural resource extractive practices\, governance\, human and environmental rights\, culture\, transnational institutions\, multinational corporations\, and the postcolonial state. His latest book\, Enclaves of Exception: Special Economic Zones and Extractive Practices in Nigeria (Indiana University Press\,2022)\, offers a new approach to exploring the relationship between oil and technologies of extraction and their interrelatedness to China’s interest in free trade zones and its impact on local livelihoods and environmental practices.\n\n*Nnimmo Bassey’s photos courtesy of the Health of Mother Earth Foundation (HOMEF).* UID:126212-21856710@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/126212 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:African Studies,African Studies Center,Exhibition,International LOCATION:Weiser Hall - 555, International Institute Gallery (5th Floor) CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240830T112455 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240913T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240913T200000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mrs. Dalloway and WWI: Home Front and War Front DESCRIPTION:This exhibit explores the characters of Mrs. Dalloway through the lens of WWI and its aftershocks.

The institute's presentation of *The Butch Closet* is the second iteration of the project\, offering a more intimate and immersive engagement with Phranc's sculptural works. As part of the installation\, visitors can peer into a closet built in the center of the gallery designed by the artist. Conceptually\, the space shifts from inside to outside\, public and private\, and explores themes of visibility and that which remains inaccessible or unseen.\n\nAbout the artist:\nPhranc is a jewish lesbian folksinger and queer artist who uses song\, painting and sculpture to champion personal identities and illustrate the struggle\, survival\, and victory of the queer individual. An internationally acclaimed and award winning performer. Phranc’s work integrates humor and a butch lesbian aesthetic. Her current project\, Phranc Talk: The Butch Closet\, is a multi-media memoir that spans her 40-year career. Phranc lives and works in Santa Monica\, California and Vancouver\, British Columbia.\n\n*Phranc is the 2024 Woodhead Visiting Artist at the Institute for the Humanities.* UID:123255-21850600@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/123255 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:american culture,Art,Exhibition,Feminism,Gender,Humanities,LGBT,visual arts LOCATION:Thayer Academic Building - Institute for the Humanities Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240130T121550 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240913T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240913T200000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Gathering DESCRIPTION:Welcome.

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.

Writers will leave with prompts designed to move them into new parts of their creativity\, and a reading/film/art list to continue the learning.

Under a dependent multifactor model\, we develop a fully data-driven orchestrated approximate message passing algorithm for integrating information across these feature sets to achieve statistically optimal signal recovery. In practice\, these reference data sets are often queried later by new subjects that are only partially observed. Leveraging on asymptotic normality of estimates generated by our data integration method\, we further develop an asymptotically valid prediction set for the latent representation of any such query subject. We demonstrate the prowess of both the data integration and the prediction set construction algorithms on a tri-modal single-cell dataset.\n\nhttps://zmastat.github.io/ UID:124532-21853148@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/124532 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:seminar LOCATION:West Hall - 340 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240130T121551 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240913T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240913T200000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. 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:84303-21621389@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:20240703T140244 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240913T103000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240913T120000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:LGBTQIA+: An Introduction to Inclusive Language DESCRIPTION:Course details and registration are available on the Organizational Learning website.

The exhibition highlights the significance of community-based conversations between mother and daughter\, and their ongoing conversations with elders (ancestors)\, young folx\, and future generations as vital aspects of their methodology. These conversations often take place during basket gatherings - where community members come together and share stories and teachings that can encompass Anishinaabe creation stories\, as well as those of survivance and resilience\, to inform the materiality and liveness of their work. The curatorial and interpretive framework of this exhibition contends that the deeply situated and temporal works by Church (Stamps\, BFA 1998) and Parrish (LSA\, BA 2020) are repositories for Anishinaabe ways of knowing\, thinking\, and making that contribute to the complexity of American art and its histories. The expansive and bold practices of Church and Parrish affirm the sovereignty of Anishinaabe lifeways and the importance of including Indigenous narratives that have systematically been left out. Thus\, the thematic survey of their work will explore the under-examined themes that inform their work such as Native women’s labor as carriers of culture and knowledge-keepers\, the legacy of boarding schools and ancestors who walked on\, the treaties in Michigan and the long-overlooked legacy of Anishinaabe intellectual life and their relevance today. Just like the practice of weaving and interlacing distinct strips of black ash to create one whole\, Church and Parrish will address the diverse and interconnected themes with approximately 30-35 works\, including 15-17 new works. Together\, the exhibition offers an incisive critique of the colonial\, racist paradigm of systemic erasure and assimilation that continues to this day\, with the ongoing crises of missing and murdered Indigenous women\, culture wars\, and climate change that threaten Indigenous ways of living\, sustenance\, and making. \nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra with Curatorial Assistant Zoi Crampton.\nStamps Gallery is grateful to Michigan Humanities and U-M Arts Initiative for generously supporting the exhibition and programs.

Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home\, placemaking\, labor\, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body\, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade\, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley\, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.\nArtist’s bio:\nMichelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist\, educator\, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas\, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting\, bead weaving\, embroidery\, jewelry\, transparent film installations\, painting\, ceramics\, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story\, re-make\, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx\, Chicanx\, Mexican\, and Texican peoples. \n\nRecently\, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan\, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania)\, Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen\, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas\, TX).

While studies show that American white-collar workers embody self-blame instead of structural critique in their assessments of the modern labor market\, we show the complicated\, sometimes contradictory ways Black disadvantaged jobseekers think about unemployment and the broader economic landscape. Using 66 in-depth interviews with Black sub-baccalaureate job seekers\, we expose a complicated picture of how these workers understand the modern economy. Contrary to previous studies\, we find respondents who are deeply critical of social structures\, calling out schools and educational systems as failing Black communities. At the same time\, in other domains\, respondents do showcase deep self-blame and even a deeper\, racialized group-blame in their viewpoints on job availability and unemployment. Finally\, in simultaneous system-critique and self-affirmation rather than blame\, respondents are extremely enthusiastic about what they see as the next frontier of social mobility: namely\, online entrepreneurship. In considering this unsettled approach\, we understand how race\, class\, and extended-periods of unemployment and marginalization influences the subjective experiences of jobseekers\, how self-blame and system-blame can co-exist\, and where opportunities and challenges to Black worker power lie.

We show that ex-ante\, all Pareto efficient allocations give almost all agents lotteries over at most two outcomes. Therefore\, even if all preferences are the same\, some identical agents necessarily receive different lotteries. Our results provide a simple criterion to show that many popular allocation mechanisms are ex-ante inefficient. Assuming the reduction axiom\, social welfare deteriorates by first randomizing over these binary lotteries. Efficient full ex-ante equality is achieved if agents satisfy the compound independence axiom.

These new phases correspond to hairy black hole solutions in the bulk gravitational theory and are easier to construct and analyze due to the emergence of a \"Non-interacting\" picture. The new phases continue to exist even in the supersymmetric limit and contribute to an extra parameter (amount of \"hair\") worth of solutions. The presence of new supersymmetric solutions predicts a phase transition in the superconformal index of N=4 SYM.

In the simplest non-trivial case of a complete intersection we can intersect two smooth quadric hypersurfaces\, and even in this case the resulting variety X turns out to be worthy of study. I will discuss some of the interesting aspects\, including the rationality of X and how one can associate to X a hyperelliptic curve (under a condition on the parity of dim X).

How can we compare locomotion across taxa\, both extant and extinct\, to understand how these different styles of movement evolved through time? For any organism\, locomotion is a complex combination of (1) its capacity for movement as constrained by its morphology\, (2) the behaviors that the organism employs within its biomechanical limits\, and (3) the habitat(s) through which the organism moves. Traditionally\, this complexity is collapsed into several broad locomotor categories\, like arboreal\, terrestrial\, or cursorial\, because postcranial fossils and modern ecological data are often extremely limited. I will present two cases where exceptional data allows for more nuanced comparison of locomotion across mammals. First\, in extant mammals\, GPS tracking data records locomotor behavior: how far and where individuals choose to travel. I used data from an online database\, Movebank\, to measure the daily distance travelled by different species of mammals. I took skeletal measurements from specimens in the University of Michigan Museum of Zoology (UMMZ) for the same species to look at how morphology corresponded with distance moved. For the second case\, I will discuss the preservation of partial skeletons in the Eocene Bridger Formation of Wyoming. Often\, postcranial fossils are isolated bones without good identifiers and locomotion must be inferred from the function of a single bone or joint. The Bridger Formation\, however\, has produced a number of exceptional partial skeletons\, including for “archaic” mammals\, groups which have gone completely extinct. I will show how these can be used to examine the interaction between different elements of the skeleton in relation to locomotion.
