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:107870-21817935@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:20241115T181508 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241012T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241012T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Kelly Church & Cherish Parrish: In Our Words\, An Intergenerational Dialogue DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: September 13 – December 7\, 2024Opening Reception: September 19\, 2024\n\nKelly Church &\; Cherish Parrish: In Our Words\, An Intergenerational Dialogue is a major exhibition that centers the subjectivities of two contemporary Indigenous artists whose practices have sustained and bolstered the relevance of the age-old Anishinaabe practice of black ash basket-making in the 21st century. 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.

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:84303-21621414@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:20241012T110200 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241012T170000 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).

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.

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:84303-21621415@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:20241013T120005 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241013T111100 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241013T121100 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).

Since 2004\, Glazer has been lead faculty and head of ceramics at Henry Ford College\, and former faculty of Concord College (WV) and North Dakota State University. His artwork has been exhibited throughout the country.\n\nThroughout his adult life the art of Steve Glazer has been done as a response to his environment. From a series of shadow box type pieces containing life like ceramic fish while teaching at a Catholic woman’s college\, to building 8’ tall ceramic “skyscrapers” that barely fit into the display spaces while teaching in North Dakota\, where no skyscrapers exist\, and then creating installations commenting on living in Appalachia while teaching in southern West Virginia. After returning home to Detroit\, Glazer began his griot series\, the “Motor City Griot Society” masks\, the faces of the superheroes that will save Detroit\, and more recently the “Motor City Griot Patrol” creatures that will protect the city of Detroit.

She collects and arranges images\, builds and subtracts\, and uses processes that suit the concepts and gives the pieces a reason for existing as textiles. Simultaneously she strives to make the medium influence the outcome in such a way that cloth and image meld together. Moran uses silkscreen\, shibori\, and stitching to embed images from her daily walks into the fabric. it's important that the work builds slowly\, involving meditative processes that connect her to the cloth and the source of the design.\n\nGallery hours: Monday-Friday\, 9 am to 5pm or by appointment serrag@med.umich.edu UID:124224-21852708@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/124224 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Alumni,Art,Culture,Detroit,Exhibition,Free,Graduate Students,North Campus,Visual Arts LOCATION:North Campus Research Complex Building 18 - Rotunda Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240829T141316 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241014T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241014T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Butch Closet DESCRIPTION:In the multi-media installation *The Butch Closet*\, artist Phranc illustrates her life stories as a queer artist\, Jewish lesbian folk singer\, and \"cardboard cobbler.\" By meticulously re-creating personal objects and pieces of clothing out of paper\, cardboard\, thread\, and paint\, she revisits her own history\, contextualizing her experiences as an iconic performer\, and maker\, constructing\, reconstructing\, and re-imagining her image against a larger historical context of second-wave feminism and queer activism. 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:123255-21850631@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:20241002T112322 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241014T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241014T120000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Seminar Series in Human Genetics DESCRIPTION:Please join us for the next installment of our Fall Seminar Series in Human Genetics on Monday “Epigenetic regulation in neuronal function and in neurodevelopmental disorders” by Erica Korb\, PhD from Cornell University.\n\nSeminar Series in Human Genetics\nMonday\, October 14\, 2024 \n11:00am - 12:00pm\n1020 Kahn Auditorium\, BSRB\n\n“Epigenetic regulation in neuronal function and in neurodevelopmental disorders”\n\nErica Korb\, PhD\nAssistant Professor of Genetics\nEpigenetics Institute\, University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine\n\nHosted By: Stephanie Bielas\, PhD\nMorton S. and Henrietta K.

Insights into the molecular mechanisms regulating osteogenic differentiation and patterning in the palate during embryogenesis are limited and needed for the development of innovative diagnostics and cures. Recently\, we defined the transcriptomic basis of murine secondary palate development using bulk\, single-cell\, and whole-transcriptome spatial RNA-sequencing. This multimodal approach enabled the identification of several novel enriched genes at specific developmental time points. Wnt signaling modulators influence osteogenic programming during palate formation\, potentially contributing to the observed cleft palate phenotype. These modulators of developmental signaling may prove to be viable diagnostic and/or therapeutic targets to augment palatal bone during surgical or minimally invasive interventions for cleft palate.

The duo is known as Frances Luke Accord\, and their soft\, contemplative vintage indie-folk gestures toward a timelessness that honors the Simon & Garfunkel comparisons but pushes beyond into the world of Bon Iver\, Jose Gonzalez\, and progressive folk music.\n\nBoth raised in South Bend\, IN\, Gunty and Powers met and began performing together during their time at the University of Notre Dame. Their first release\, Kandote\, was a bold intercultural collaboration with the Barefoot Truth Children’s Choir in Uganda\, a not-for-profit effort which continues to support the choir to this day. Relocating to Chicago in 2013\, the duo honed their songwriting craft while releasing two more self-produced EPs\, laying the groundwork for their breakthrough debut full-length\, “Fluke\,” in 2016.

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:107870-21817937@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:20241007T115521 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241015T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241015T120000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:DEI Lecture Series: Building Inclusive Communities: DEI Strategies in Engineering DESCRIPTION:This DEI Lecture series will feature two lectures on building inclusive communities. The first lecture presented by Aaron Morris and Alexandra S. Piotrowski-Daspit will dive into the transformative journey of the BME DEI Book Club\, an initiative that brought together 50 undergraduate students\, postdocs\, faculty and staff to explore critical themes in diversity\, equity and inclusion (DEI). Learn more about how the club’s impactful conversations led to real change — like implementing “empowerment declarations” in exams that boosted student confidence.\n\nThe second lecture presented by Angela Violi will focus on Engineering SUCCESS (Supporting Undergraduate Career\, Community Engagement\, and Soft Skills in DEI) an innovative program designed to empower undergraduate students by connecting them with young alumni for invaluable insights on academic and professional pathways. In addition to academic guidance\, the program emphasizes the importance of soft skills such as eIective communication\, teamwork and leadership\, which are essential for professional success.

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:84303-21621416@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:20241030T123219 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241015T114500 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241015T123000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Handshake 101: your fall recruitment survival guide DESCRIPTION:Join Handshake for a free virtual event to learn all about things you should be doing to make the most of the fall recruitment season\, whether you’re just getting started or you’re actively interviewing.

Jobos Bay and Rookery Bay NERRs jointly recognized the need to understand and enhance the resilience of their mangrove ecosystems and the surrounding communities in southeastern Puerto Rico and southwest Florida\, respectively. Through a multi-disciplinary approach spanning four research themes – time-series mapping\, ecosystem assessment\, ecosystem services modeling\, and management options – the MCC investigated the loss and recovery of mangroves\, the relationships between drivers of hurricane impact and recovery\, the effects to ecosystem services\, and the ways that managers have made information-based decisions. Using co-production methods\, the project team developed and shared products at a recent regional Mangrove and Management Forum that brought together a newly coalescing community of mangrove scientists and managers in the southeastern US and Caribbean.\nIn this webinar\, the project team will describe how the mangrove science-to-management community developed as an integral part of the MCC and will share an overview of how the ongoing results of the MCC have responded to the needs of this growing community.

I will present two natural definitions of an ample vector bundle on a stack\, not clearly equivalent\, one generalizing a cohomological property and the other generalizing the embedding property of ample line bundles. Using the latter\, and extending work of Kresch\, I will explain how an ample vector bundle on a tame stack induces an embedding into [V^s/GL_r] where V^s is the twisted affine GIT stable locus in some polynomial representation V of GL_r. An application is the construction of moduli of stacks with ample vector bundle and in particular a very general stack of tame stacky curves. This is joint with Daniel Bragg and Martin Olsson.

One member of the band came home to Ohio after leading camping trips in California and decided to make an album with two childhood friends. They won a Facebook raffle to record one song at a studio. Instead\, they played their whole album straight through once\, resulting in their debut LP 34 N River (2018). The Fader called the album a “folk-pop masterpiece” and the band was booked at Bonnaroo and Mountain Jam shortly thereafter. In 2019\, the band released their 6 track EP\, The Flood\, which Billboard called a “souvenir.” This brings the band to their sophomore\, self-titled album (July 2023)\, featuring music from the band’s recent Northern Lights EP\, plus five additional songs.\n\nhttps://www.olihazard.com/ UID:121261-21846093@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/121261 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Ark,Concert,Music,Mutotix LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241215T120008 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241016T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241016T235959 SUMMARY:Meeting:Check Out the P4P Public Calendar Here DESCRIPTION:bit.ly/p4pumcalendar UID:127131-21858474@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/127131 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION:Online CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240910T113929 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241016T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241016T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:WCEE Exhibition.

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.

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:84303-21621417@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:20241016T110200 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241016T170000 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).

Essential participants in these adventures were two Detroit-made “dig” cars—a Graham Brothers truck and a Dodge sedan\, both donated by the Dodge Brothers Company. Each carried hundreds of pounds of equipment\, personnel\, and supplies\, all while navigating miles of uncharted deserts\, perilous mountain passes\, and remote locations devoid of anything resembling a road. \n\nThe official photographer for the campaigns\, as well as the man who drove and maintained the vehicles\, was George R. Swain. A longtime high school teacher and principal\, an inveterate explorer\, and an avid writer\, Swain was hired to document the archaeological discoveries. He became equally intrigued\, however\, by the modern world around him\, writing insightful letters home to his family about the people and places he encountered and taking hundreds of ethnographic images. By framing the “seeable” (Swain’s photographs) with the “sayable” (his writings)\, this Flash Talk invites us to contemplate the poetry and poverty of life in distant and storied locations of the 1920s. Together\, they explore places rarely seen by the outside world during a decade of seminal social change after the Great War.\n\nKelsey Museum Flash Talks are 15-minute Zoom lectures by Kelsey curators\, staff members\, researchers\, graduate students\, and guests talking about their recent research or current projects. Each presentation is followed by 15 minutes of Q&A. Flash Talks are free and open to all visitors. \n\nTo register for this Flash Talk\, fill out the form at https://forms.gle/JqiTuZbMkq1fZb1U9.

Following this\, we will shift our focus to the new CVFS Young Adult Study (YAS)\, highlighting the benefits of a mixed-mode design for longitudinal research. The CVFS-YAS uses a web-phone mixed mode design to conduct six rounds of interviews across two and half years to create a record of changes in young adult sex\, contraceptive use\, and substance use behaviors during early adulthood. The design allows young adults to participate no matter where they move and to switch modes to whatever is more convenient at each round. Analyses demonstrate that allowing responses by multiple modes changes both key outcome measures and substantive interpretations from multivariable models of those outcomes. Discussion will focus on potential uses of the CVFS-YAS data. All of these new measures can be linked to previous measures of these same young people\, their parents and siblings\, and their households and neighborhoods. There will be a Q&A session after the presentation.\n\nThe webinar will be hosted using Zoom. Registration is required to attend the webinar. Support provided by NICHD (R25 HD101358).

Politics of Identity\, Inclusion\, and Belonging DESCRIPTION:The concept of belonging is being included and\, in some instances replacing Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion to name work that seeks to support all groups in having more equitable experiences and outcomes\, especially those who are most marginalized. Focusing on belonging is important in understanding the lived experiences of communities with shared identities and values and allows for the development of inclusive supports and activities that meet the needs of diverse communities. Leading with inclusive practices can produce a greater sense of belonging and contribute to more equitable outcomes across many indicators\, including education\, work\, etc. \n\nOver the past few years\, the targeted campaign against DEI has shown how both public sentiment and political power affect individual and community experiences. This effect is evident in the legislation proposed and enacted across multiple states to ban DEI practices and principles and the chilling effect that such legislation has had on institutions. More broadly\, the discourse of belonging is present in the ways societies discuss immigration\, nationality\, identity\, political affiliation\, etc. \n\n(Sense of) belonging is affective in nature\, as it resides in the individual's experiences relative to both their own respective identities and myriad external factors\, and it is therefore difficult to effectively measure. Inclusion seeks to be responsive to the perceived needs of individuals and groups by employing research-informed and community-guided practices and principles that foster a sense of belonging. How belonging is constructed by individuals and by institutions\, higher education and otherwise\, is a crucial part of this equation. That is to say\, how are the identities most salient to individuals and communities constructed\, and how do institutions effectively determine which groups should or should not be included\, through language and action–or\, to put it more simply\, who determines who belongs?\n\nIn this panel\, scholars will discuss the concept of belonging and how socio-political factors shape identity and values and receptiveness/acceptance\, and ultimately how the structural nature of the construction of belonging impacts the experiences of belonging at the community and individual level.\n\n\nMODERATOR\n\nWilliam D.

Differential fragmentation of the resulting 1\,2\,3-triazole generates ketenimines or rhodium carbenoids which readily engage with a variety of nucleophiles to provide access to heterocycles of interest to the synthetic community. We’ve demonstrated the utility of click chemistry in the synthesis of N-Heterocycles such as indolizines\, dihydroisoquinolines and as an approach to beta-lactams.

Based on the measure rigidity work by Aaron Brown and Federico Rodriguez Hertz\, we know that a stationary measure has SRB property unless there is a certain obstruction. Here\, SRB property implies that\, morally\, the measure is 'absolutely continuous' along 1 dimensional piece.\nIn this talk\, we consider about a different mechanism to get ‘measure rigidity’ which promote SRB to absolute continuity using ‘transversality' motivated by Tsujii’s works on partially hyperbolic endomorphisms and Bernoulli convolution.\nThe talk is based on a joint work in progress with Aaron Brown\, Davi Obata\, and Yuping Ruan.

In the noise-free setting\, it is well known that only two minimax error rates are possible: constant or scaling linearly with the time horizon T. In this talk\, we show that slight modifications to the standard online classification game can result in very different minimax rates. In particular\, we present two natural modifications to the standard online learning setup which result in a trichotomy of minimax rates. That is\, in these settings\, the minimax error rates scale only like one of three different functions of the time horizon T.

We need to make systemic change across many sectors–including the ways we plan\, develop\, design\, and construct our built environment\, which accounts for a high proportion of emissions. On October 17-18\, 2024\, the Taubman College of Architecture & Urban Planning at the University of Michigan will host Climate Futures 2024\, a symposium exploring the ways architecture and planning can help to bring about a better future for people and the planet.\n\nAcross two days of moderated presentation panels\, speakers will show how urban planners\, designers\, technologists and architects help to reduce emissions and improve equitable access to healthy and vital built environments. Symposium sessions will challenge the assumptions\, interests\, practices\, and values shaping the current landscape of climate action\, and they will open space for inclusive and collaborative imagining of new possibilities.\n\nThe event launches a new Climate Futures platform through which Taubman College aims to elevate our impact in discovery and education for climate action\, sustainability\, and environmental justice. By supporting students\, faculty\, staff\, and partners in research and creative practice\, teaching and learning\, outreach and engagement\, we aim to partner across and beyond the university to achieve inclusive\, vibrant\, and just futures.\n\nThis event is supported by the Guido A. Binda Exhibit and Lecture fund and the Raoul Wallenberg Memorial Lecture Fund. \n\nFor seven decades\, Guido Binda\, B.Arch.’31\, practiced architecture in Western Michigan\, specializing in school design. Guido\, with his wife Elizabeth\, created this fund to provide for an exhibit program and annual lecture by visiting professionals.\n\nThe Raoul Wallenberg Lecture was initiated in 1971 by Sol King\, a former classmate of Wallenberg’s. An endowment was established in 1976 for an annual lecture to be offered in Raoul’s honor on the theme of architecture as a humane social art.

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’....

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.

In my talk\, I will present two works that bridge between attosecond physics and quantum optics. In the first work\, we successfully replace the classical (coherent-state) laser pulses by intense non-classical light – bright squeezed vacuum (BSV) – to drive HHG in solids. We show how the BSV’s extremely noisy photon statistics is transferred to its harmonics\, leading to a strong enhancement of the harmonic yield and enabling studies of electron-hole dynamics at extreme intensities. In a second work\, we measure the Wigner function of a harmonic driven by classical (coherent-state) light in the non-perturbative regime\, showing that the quantum state of the harmonic is not trivial. Our work bears the prospect of extending the frontier of quantum optics and non-classical light into the extreme-ultraviolet spectral regime.\n\n \n\nBio: \nDr. Michael Krueger joined the Technion as an assistant professor of Physics in 2019. He received his Ph.D. from the Ludwig Maximilian University in Munich\, Germany\, in 2013. From 2014 to 2019\, he performed postdoc research at the Weizmann Institute in Rehovot\, Israel. In his research\, Michael studies ultrafast quantum phenomena on the nanoscale. His main scientific achievements resulting from his Ph.D. have laid the foundation for the integration of attosecond science and nanoscience. This advancement could lead to novel microscopy approaches with extreme time resolution. For his Ph.D. work\, Michael received the Otto Hahn Medal of the Max Planck Society in 2015. For his research at Technion\, he has been awarded with a Starting Grant of the European Research Council.

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).

The gold standard for computing these energies is the coupled-cluster method with singles\, doubles\, and perturbative triples (CCSD(T)) converged to the complete basis set (CBS) limit\, which normally requires performing CCSD(T) in a basis set of at least triple-zeta quality. When a triple-zeta CCSD(T) calculation is not feasible but a double-zeta one is\, it is worthwhile to look for a silver standard that provides the most accurate and consistent approximation to the gold standard at a reduced computational cost. Unfortunately\, every supermolecular standard gives a single number that says nothing about the nature of interaction. A successful alternative is provided by symmetry-adapted perturbation theory (SAPT)\, where the interaction energy is computed as a sum of physically distinct electrostatic\, exchange\, induction\, and dispersion contributions. The recent studies from our group aim at (1) increasing the capabilities of SAPT\, targeting spin splittings\, basis set convergence\, and intramolecular interactions\, (2) establishing the best strategies for computing silver-standard CCSD(T)/CBS estimates through explicit correlation and midbond functions\, and (3) applying accurate supermolecular and SAPT approaches to gain novel insights into the interaction in chemically important complexes.

Prior to\njoining Oxford\, Agni received a PhD in Operations Research from the Massachusetts\nInstitute of Technology. Her primary research interests lie at the intersection of optimization\nand machine learning with applications to healthcare and insurance. She has collaborated\nwith numerous institutions\, including a major medical society\, two international reinsurance\ncompanies\, and more than eight hospitals in the US and Europe.\n\n\nAbstract: Tackling hospital emergency department (ED) overcrowding is a paramount\nchallenge for healthcare systems. To combat this issue\, an innovative approach is to identify\npatients who can be served vertically (i.e.\, in a seated position) and route them to a dedicated\narea termed the Vertical Processing Pathway (VPP). Successfully implementing this design\nrequires a clear understanding of which patients should be routed to the VPP and when.\nCurrently\, the decision on how to leverage the VPP is conducted in an ad-hoc fashion. To\nassist our partner hospital and other EDs in capturing the value of the VPP\, we develop a\nmachine learning model that provides personalized risk scores predicting whether each\narriving patient will need an ED bed. We use the derived scores as input to a stochastic\npatient flow model and analytically characterize the optimal VPP policy that minimizes\nthe length of stay. Employing simulation analyses\, we identify the settings in which our proposed\nVPP design is preferable in terms of operational performance to traditional ED flow\napproaches\, such as “fast track” or “physician in triage.” Finally\, we derive an interpretable\nVPP patient streaming protocol and conduct a before-and-after experiment where we\nleverage empirical analyses to evaluate the impact of implementing it in practice. Our\nfindings demonstrate that our protocol is highly effective\, leading to significant reductions in\npatient length of stay without any adverse effect on quality of care measures. Our work\nresults in a VPP protocol that is generalizable to other EDs\, offering operational\nimprovements without requiring additional resources.

These vaccines were made possible by a herculean effort to overcome the most significant barriers that have hindered translational efforts. Arguably\, the largest challenge has been that RNA molecules do not readily enter their cellular targets within the body. This is because they are large (104 – 106 g/mol) and negatively charged\; they do not have favorable biodistribution properties nor an ability to cross the cell membrane of target cells. In response to these issues\, industrial and academic laboratories\, including my own\, have created lipid nanoparticles that spontaneously package RNA and deliver the RNA to key cellular targets in vivo. Here\, I will describe biodegradable\, ionizable lipid-like materials called ‘lipidoids’ that my lab has used to create RNA-loaded lipid nanoparticles that induce protein expression in a variety of tissues. This talk will describe how simple changes in nanoparticle chemistry and route of administration cause dramatic shifts in efficacy and tropism\, allowing the targeting of organs such as the pancreas and brain. Together\, these data advance our understanding of lipid nanoparticle chemistry and are expected to contribute to the successful formulation of next-generation mRNA therapies.\nBio:\nKathryn A.

A possible way to connect both realms is by studying the oldest stars in the Milky Way (i.e.\, the proto-Galaxy). Our ability to resolve individually millions of stars in the Galaxy provides us with the opportunity to decipher the intricate processes of galaxy formation in a detail that is unmatched by any other galaxy in the Cosmos. Therefore\, the time is ripe to study the oldest parts of the Milky Way\, and from them unravel its early mass assembly history. Such results\, in addition to placing strong constraints on how our Galaxy formed\, are also complementary to the new exciting results of the high-redshift Universe delivered by the JWST telescope. In this talk\, I will present new findings aiming to piece together the earliest stages of formation of the Milky Way by examining the chemistry\, kinematics\, and orbits of the oldest stars in the Galaxy. I will also show fresh results concerning the structure and mass of the Milky Way's proto-galactic fragments. I will then place these observational findings in the wider context of the many possible assembly histories by comparing with expectations from cosmological simulations. The findings I will present help answer (but raise more) fundamental questions on the genesis of our Galaxy.

Building on a rich history of staging modernist works—Gatz\, The Sound and the Fury\, The Select (The Sun Also Rises)—Elevator Repair Service (ERS) takes on this Mount Everest of twentieth-century literature.\n\nElevator Repair Service (ERS) is a New York City–based company that creates original works for live theater with an ongoing ensemble. The company’s shows are created from a wide range of texts that include found transcripts of trials and debates\, literature\, classical dramas\, and new plays. Founded in 1991\, ERS has created an extensive body of work that includes upwards of 20 original pieces. These have earned the company a loyal following and made it one of New York’s most highly acclaimed experimental theater companies. The company is best known for Gatz\, its award-winning verbatim staging of the entire text of The Great Gatsby. ERS has received numerous awards and distinctions\, including Lortel awards\, a Bessie award\, and an OBIE award for Sustained Excellence\, as well as a Guggengheim Fellowship and Doris Duke Performing Artist Award for Artistic Director John Collins.\n\nFor their Penny Stamps event\, Elevator Repair Service's John Collins and Scott Shepherd will discuss the founding of ERS\, the arc of its work\, the importance of literature as a cultural influence\, and their upcoming performance\, Ulysses\, which will be staged as part of the University Musical Society’s 2024-25 season.\n\nJohn Collins (Director) founded Elevator Repair Service in 1991. Since then he has directed or co-directed all of the company’s productions while also serving as the company’s Artistic Director. ERS productions directed by Collins include Cab Legs\, Room Tone\, Gatz\, The Select (The Sun Also Rises)\, The Sound and the Fury\, Arguendo\, Measure for Measure\, and numerous others. The company’s work\, under his direction\, has been seen in over a dozen countries as well as in cities across the U.S. John is an experienced sound designer and has worked for The Wooster Group\, Richard Foreman\, Target Margin Theater\, and others. Recent projects include Baldwin and Buckley at Cambridge\, and a new adaptation of Chekhov’s The Seagull. He is the recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship\, a United States Artists Fellowship\, and a Doris Duke Performing Artist Award.\nScott Shepherd (Performer\, Co-Director\, Dramaturg) has been a member of ERS since 1994\, when he played a drunk passed out on a radiator in McGurk: A Cautionary Tale. Other ERS appearances include Measure for Measure\; Gatz (Obie Award)\; No Great Society\; Total Fictional Lie\; Cab Legs\; and Shut Up I Tell You. He has worked with The Wooster Group since 1997\, playing Hamlet in Hamlet and other roles in The Town Hall Affair\; Vieux Carré\; Poor Theater (Obie Award)\; To You\, The Birdie!\; Brace Up!\; and others. His screen credits include Killers of the Flower Moon\, The Last of Us\, First Cow\, El Camino\, True Detective\, The Young Pope\, and Bridge of Spies.\n\nThis event will be an interview conducted by Tom Sellar\, a writer\, editor\, dramaturg and curator\, editor of Yale’s international journal Theater\, and professor in the Practice of Dramaturgy and Dramatic Criticism at Yale. Sellar’s arts writing and criticism has appeared in national publications including Artforum\, BOMB\, the New York Times\, the Guardian\, 4Columns\, TheatreForum\, and American Theatre. \n\nElevator Repair Service will perform Ulysses at the Power Center on October 19 at 7:30 p.m. and October 20 at 2 p.m. For more information and to order tickets\, visit UMS.org.\n\nPresented in partnership with University Musical Society.

She’s a wilderness guide for wanderers\, a galactic diplomat\, a dreamscape designer\, a heartache survivalist\, a pioneer. She speaks to the misfits\, the soul searchers\, the silent types longing to be cracked open. A vocal shapeshifter\, she delivers live shows that spark both playful giddiness and profound catharsis. But Yamagata is not here to heal you—she's here to show you how to heal yourself.\n \nEach record has marked a graduation for pivotal life moments. ‘Happenstance’ (2004) chronicled romantic heartaches. ‘Elephants...Teeth Sinking Into Heart’ (2008) delved deeper into loss and broken promises\, ushering in the confidence of ‘Chesapeake’ (2011). Going DIY\, Yamagata found freedom\, mixing lighter love songs with deep dives into what threatens and ultimately strengthens us. ‘Tightrope Walker’ (2016) expanded into resilience\, empowerment\, and forgiveness.\n\nHer new record (yet to be titled) emerges from this lineage with a dare: sink or swim. Grounded by soul-stirring lyrics like “All of our best laid plans washed away like plastic in the sand” (\"Empty Houses\") it also winks at new dimensions\, suggesting worlds beyond our reach with “The galaxy members are waiting for us/ they learn from our failures and they’re sending us love” (“Galaxy”). This new record sees Yamagata as an emotional archivist\, chronicling loneliness and connection and urging us to see our breaking points as opportunities to build something new.

Embellished clothing (sorochky)\, ritual cloths (rushnyky)\, and household textiles accompany a person from birth until death\, punctuating important life events in between. A variety of embroidery patterns are used throughout Ukraine\; some stitches are universally known\, while others are region-specific. Ukrainian embroidered clothing is now officially celebrated with an annual Vyshyvanka Day observed throughout the world in May.\n\nTo see photos and read more about exhibited items\, visit https://myumi.ch/AZedA\n \n The embroideries and textiles exhibited are from the private collections of Arnie Klein\, Solomia Soroka\, Katerina Sirinyok-Dolgaryova\, and from the Ukrainian American Archives & Museum located in Hamtramck\, Michigan.\n \n The exhibit opens on September 5\, 2024\, in 1010 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor.

We need to make systemic change across many sectors–including the ways we plan\, develop\, design\, and construct our built environment\, which accounts for a high proportion of emissions. On October 17-18\, 2024\, the Taubman College of Architecture & Urban Planning at the University of Michigan will host Climate Futures 2024\, a symposium exploring the ways architecture and planning can help to bring about a better future for people and the planet.\n\nAcross two days of moderated presentation panels\, speakers will show how urban planners\, designers\, technologists and architects help to reduce emissions and improve equitable access to healthy and vital built environments. Symposium sessions will challenge the assumptions\, interests\, practices\, and values shaping the current landscape of climate action\, and they will open space for inclusive and collaborative imagining of new possibilities.\n\nThe event launches a new Climate Futures platform through which Taubman College aims to elevate our impact in discovery and education for climate action\, sustainability\, and environmental justice. By supporting students\, faculty\, staff\, and partners in research and creative practice\, teaching and learning\, outreach and engagement\, we aim to partner across and beyond the university to achieve inclusive\, vibrant\, and just futures.\n\nThis event is supported by the Guido A. Binda Exhibit and Lecture fund and the Raoul Wallenberg Memorial Lecture Fund. \n\nFor seven decades\, Guido Binda\, B.Arch.’31\, practiced architecture in Western Michigan\, specializing in school design. Guido\, with his wife Elizabeth\, created this fund to provide for an exhibit program and annual lecture by visiting professionals.\n\nThe Raoul Wallenberg Lecture was initiated in 1971 by Sol King\, a former classmate of Wallenberg’s. An endowment was established in 1976 for an annual lecture to be offered in Raoul’s honor on the theme of architecture as a humane social art.

The exhibition will be on display from August 26 to November 2\, 2024.\n\nWe invite the university community and the general public to explore this moving collection that delves into themes of loss\, grief\, healing\, and protection. 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. During her stay\, you are warmly invited to join us for a special artist reception on October 23\, from 4:30 to 6:00 pm in the Gallery. Prior to the reception\, there will be an artist's talk in the Keene Theater at 3:30 pm\, where Savageau will share insights into her creative process and the inspiration behind Guardians.\n\nAnn Savageau\, a former Studio Art instructor at the Residential College from 1978 to 2002\, is not only an artist but also an activist and educator. Her contributions to the Prison Creative Arts Project\, where she taught a weekly art workshop at Jackson Prison for four years\, showcase her commitment to using art as a tool for social change.\n\nDon't miss this opportunity to witness the transformative impact of Savageau's work and engage with her during her residency.

Since 2004\, Glazer has been lead faculty and head of ceramics at Henry Ford College\, and former faculty of Concord College (WV) and North Dakota State University. His artwork has been exhibited throughout the country.\n\nThroughout his adult life the art of Steve Glazer has been done as a response to his environment. From a series of shadow box type pieces containing life like ceramic fish while teaching at a Catholic woman’s college\, to building 8’ tall ceramic “skyscrapers” that barely fit into the display spaces while teaching in North Dakota\, where no skyscrapers exist\, and then creating installations commenting on living in Appalachia while teaching in southern West Virginia. After returning home to Detroit\, Glazer began his griot series\, the “Motor City Griot Society” masks\, the faces of the superheroes that will save Detroit\, and more recently the “Motor City Griot Patrol” creatures that will protect the city of Detroit.

Increasingly\, this strategy is shaping economically important markets\, but historically\, it has escaped antitrust enforcement. We study this phenomenon in the anesthesia industry\, home to the first rollup-based antitrust case in US history. Using procedure-level claims data\, we study the litigated transactions\, identify eighteen other observationally similar rollups\, and document their effects on market structure. We then show prices rise sharply as competing practices are acquired. Finally\, we estimate a structural bargaining model and simulate counterfactual equilibrium outcomes under remedies that courts are likely to consider.

BLO has recently attracted a lot of attention due to novel applications in machine learning that involve optimizing nested objective functions\, including hyperparameter tuning and related automated ML tasks\, few shot robust\, representation\, coreset and reinforcement learning. In the first part of the talk\, a very brief overview of the BLO problem\, selected machine learning applications that can be cast as BLO problems and algorithms to obtain its solution will be given.\n\nIn the second part of the talk\, we introduce the decentralized version of the BLO problem (without assuming a star-shape network topology) and present a penalty function-based decentralized algorithm with theoretical guarantees under both convex and non-convex assumptions for the upper level functions. Specifically\, a distributed alternating gradient-type algorithm for solving consensus BLO over a decentralized network is developed. A key feature of the proposed algorithm is the estimation of the hyper-gradient of the penalty function through decentralized computation of matrix-vector products and few vector communications. Further\, the theoretical results highlight improvements in the iteration complexity of decentralized BLO. Empirical results on selected ML problems demonstrate that the proposed method performs well in real-world settings.\n\nhttps://georgemichailidis.github.io/ UID:124540-21853169@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/124540 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:seminar LOCATION:West Hall - 340 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240829T142032 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241018T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241018T113000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Clements Bookworm Author Conversation with Bethany Hughes “Redface: Race\, Performance\, and Indigeneity” DESCRIPTION:Author Bethany Hughes discusses her new book\, “Redface: Race\, Performance\, and Indigeneity.” Dr. Hughes is an enrolled member of the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma and assistant professor at the University of Michigan.

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:84303-21621419@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:20240919T124733 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241018T103000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241018T113000 SUMMARY:Presentation:Guest Speaker: Douglas J.

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).

Only a few of them however are capable of developing durable identities\, redemptive or otherwise\, that can command enduring sectoral support. The multifaceted case of Rodrigo Duterte\, Philippine president from 2016-2022 and father of incumbent vice president who is a major contender for the 2028 presidency\, remains central to the making of democratic polity in an age of communicative abundance.\n\nThis talk will look at the contentious episodes of mediated populism understood as critical moments where the expressions of performative populist politics in the media are deliberated by political actors like politicians\, journalists\, and members of the legal community through existing and innovative measures. Looking at diverse cases of press freedom\, religion\, and the law\, the hope is to highlight the actors\, claims\, and mechanisms that make populism a defining feature of mediated politics. The episodes of contentious politics matter to contemporary Southeast Asia and to the dynamics of emerging and developing democracies.\n\nJefferson Ragragio is an assistant professor of media studies at the University of the Philippines Los Baños and the 2024-2025 Gosling Lim Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Michigan.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at cseas@umich.edu.

Coupling these separate subsystems often relies on time-intensive meshing workflows or empirical coupling models which may not generalize well across all operational regimes. The Schwarz alternating method proposes to overcome these issues\, establishing an effective domain decomposition framework which allows for the coupling of arbitrary geometries. This talk presents a brief history of Schwarz-based coupling work at Sandia National Laboratories\, along with recent work on combining the Schwarz alternating method with data-driven modeling approaches\, namely projection-based reduced order models (PROMs) and operator inference. This approach can generate surrogates which are capable of simulating advection-dominated fluid flows with higher accuracy and lower cost than comparable monolithic models\, aiding analysis in many-query applications such as uncertainty quantification and engineering design. Several nuances of the Schwarz algorithm and their impacts on model performance are explored\, specifically non-overlapping decompositions and PROM hyper-reduction under domain decomposition. A look into ongoing Schwarz coupling work at Sandia discusses existing challenges and efforts to apply this approach to relevant engineering problems.

It is located on a small glacial outwash plain in Saint Joseph County. The soil type is a Bronson series sandy loam known for its high acidity. Because of this\, the chances of recovering any datable organic material from this late Pleistocene culture are low. This challenges us to extract all the information we can from what little clues they left behind. In this presentation I will cover topics of study related to: Paleo Environment / Ecosystem\, Clovis and other late Pleistocene stone tool technologies\, the importance of tool stone identification and sourcing\, lithic analysis\, and protein analysis. The Belson Clovis site\, being well into the 5th year of excavation\, provides a glimpse into the lives of these early “Hunter / Gatherers” in the Great Lakes Basin.

The Lu group at UNC strives to build a time-dependent theory of living systems\, bridging non-equilibrium thermodynamics with biophysical design principles. This talk presents universal laws governing biological systems far from equilibrium\, introducing geometric design principles for time-domain activated behaviors in biochemical reaction networks. The theory reveals how certain biological catalysts or reaction networks can perform counter-intuitive tasks under dynamically changing environments\, which are unattainable in steady states. We extend this framework to larger-scale phenomena\, presenting universal non-equilibrium response relations applicable to diverse biological processes\, from protein folding to neural network dynamics. This theoretical foundation offers new approaches to understanding and manipulating complex living systems. By integrating time-dependent thermodynamics with biological complexity\, our group aims to provide a unified framework for understanding and engineering life-like performances in artificial synthetic materials.

Low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes are graph-based codes whose representation\, encoding\, and/or decoding can be visualized using a sparse graph representation\, called a Tanner graph. The majority of this talk will focus on absorbing sets\, which are combinatorial structures in a code’s Tanner graph that have been shown to characterize iterative decoder failure of LDPC codes. Previously\, absorbing sets have been regarded as combinatorial\, graph-theoretic objects\, but in this talk\, I demonstrate a novel algebraic connection between absorbing sets and the cosets and syndromes of their support vectors. Time permitting\, I will also give highlights of some of my current projects in graph-based codes.

In this presentation\, we will explore both the perils and potential of AI in translation\, offering a balanced look at the technology’s impact on the future of language services.\n \nThis session will provide a deep dive into how AI tools like neural machine translation (NMT) and real-time speech recognition systems are revolutionizing translation workflows\, driving efficiency\, and reducing costs. We’ll examine successful case studies\, such as the EU’s hybrid AI-human approach\, and eBay’s AI-powered global expansion strategy.\n \nHowever\, the presentation also highlights the significant risks AI poses: from biased outputs and hallucinations to data security concerns and cultural insensitivity. Through real-world examples—such as Facebook’s infamous mistranslation leading to legal consequences and Google Translate’s gender biases—we uncover why human expertise remains critical in ensuring quality and nuance.\n \nJoin us for this thought-provoking session that answers the fundamental question: Will AI take over the translation industry\, or is the future of language services one of collaboration between human linguists and intelligent machines? (Hint: An “expert-in-the-loop” remains critical!)\n\n\nBIO:\nBridget Hylak\, CT\, CI\, MTC is a 30+ year language industry veteran\, international speaker\, consultant\, author and trainer\, working hard to bridge the gap between silo’d industry sectors.

It is well-known that existence of a limit requires the weak topology because high-frequency oscillations appear even though they are not present in the initial data. Physically\, this phenomenon corresponds to the generation of a dispersive shock wave. In the setting of the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation\, it has been shown that dispersive shock waves exhibit a universal form independent of initial data near the two edges of the dispersive shock wave\, and also near the gradient catastrophe point for the inviscid Burgers equation from which the shock wave forms. In this talk\, we will present corresponding universality results for the BO equation. These have quite a different character than in the KdV case\; while for KdV one has universal wave profiles expressed in terms of solutions of Painlevé-type equations\, for BO one instead has expressions in terms of classical Airy functions and Pearcey integrals. These results are proved for general rational initial data using a new approach based on an explicit formula for the solution of the Cauchy problem for BO. This is joint work with Elliot Blackstone\, Louise Gassot\, Patrick Gérard\, and Matthew Mitchell.

Hiller Professor of Engineering. A reception will immediately follow the talk.\n\nSatellite microwave remote sensing has been used for monitoring the Earth’s resources and global climate changes. In this talk\, I will describe the remote sensing of snow water equivalent\, the polar ice sheets\, soil moisture\, and vegetation/forests. For remote sensing of snow water equivalent\, the proposed missions are Snow Globe and TSMM. For cryosphere properties\, the proposed mission of CyroRad/PolarRad can be used to retrieve firn properties\, subsurface temperature profiles\, and aquifer properties. For remote sensing of soil moisture and vegetation/forests\, the SMAP and NISAR are satellite missions with passive and active sensors respectively. I developed electromagnetic models of layered media\, dense media\, rough surfaces\, vegetation and forests that are used for data analyses and retrieval algorithms. Recent emphases of electromagnetic models of remote sensing are on fast full wave simulations\, combining multiple scattering theory and computational electromagnetics. I have also adapted the approach to multiple scattering problems in photonic crystals\n\nBio\n\nLeung Tsang is a Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. His research has been in Satellite Microwave Remote Sensing of the Earth and the Multiple Scattering of Waves. He has made contributions to electromagnetic models of waves in dense media for scattering by snow\, rough surface scattering by soil surfaces\, radiative transfer and full wave simulations of vegetation and forests. The models form the bases of remote sensing data analyses\, parameter retrieval algorithms and designs of satellite remote sensing measurements. He has applied the approach of multiple scattering of waves also to scattering problems in printed circuit board and photonic crystals\nLeung Tsang received his BS\, MS and PhD from MIT. He joined the University of Michigan in January 2015. He was a Professor at the University of Washington from 1983-2014 and was the Chair of the UWEE Department in 2006-2011. In 2001-2004\, he was on leave at the Department of Electronic Engineering of the City University of Hong Kong. Leung Tsang is the lead author of 4 books: ‘Theory of Microwave Remote Sensing” and the 3 volumes of Scattering of Electromagnetic Waves’. He was the Editor-in-Chief of the IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing (1996-2000)\, the President of IEEE-GRSS (2006-2007). Since 2008\, he has been the Chair of the PIERS Symposium. He received the Distinguished Achievement Award from IEEE-GRSS in 2008\, the Golden Florin Award in 2010\, the William Pecora Award co-sponsored by USGS and NASA in 2012\, the IEEE Electromagnetics Award in 2013 and the Van de Hulst Light Scattering Award in 2018. He is a Fellow of IEEE\, a Fellow of OPTICA\, a Fellow of the Electromagnetics Academy\, a member of the Washington State Academy of Science and a member of the National Academy of Engineering.

Microbial manganese oxidation\, which typically leads the formation of MnO 2 (s)\, was documented more than a century ago. However\, its physiological function remains elusive. Also lacking is knowledge of the factors that control the regulation and transcription of the enzymes leading to manganese biomineralization. In this talk I will present a novel reporter gene fusion system that we developed to study the activation of the genes encoding two manganese oxidases in the common bacterium\, Pseudomonas putida GB-1. This system has enabled the first temporally and spatially resolved analysis of manganese oxidase promoter activation at the single cell level and ability to correlate gene activation with mineral precipitation across a range of environmental conditions. The mechanism of manganese biomineralization that emerges is one regulated at the population-level and not at the single cell level. Further\, the two manganese oxidases are regulated by specific chemical cues that expand the ecological niches for manganese biomineralization. This work provides a new framework to investigate how microbial communities orchestrate the extent\, location and timing of biogeochemical transformations\, while providing new insights on the interface between life and minerals.

Disillusioned by lofty promises for power and control\, Gill’s research shows how Punjabi men contend with patriarchy: by submitting to it\, by attempting to transgress it\, by migrating away from it\, or by coming undone by it. Based on long-term ethnographic research in and around Punjab\, and its capital city Chandigarh\, Gill offers a deeper insight into the worlds of middle-class Punjabi men and how they come of age. On one hand\, masculinity is produced through pervasive patriarchal violence\, on the other\, it’s underlined with intimacy and tenderness men express freely towards each other without the fear of homophobic ridicule. Gill’s research posits an indictment of patriarchy as a system that not only oppresses women but also constricts men’s choices regarding their intimate and sexual lives. Whereas outward transnational migration from Punjab is historically understood through frameworks of political persecution and economic desperation\, Gill’s considers male migration as gendered phenomenon by exploring how migration offers a strategy for evading patriarchal responsibilities as well as examining how male migration reconfigures the lives of those who are left behind. Gill concludes by making a convincing argument for why men everywhere (including in hyper-patriarchal Punjab) must divest from patriarchy if they don’t wish for their lives to be defined by relentless conflict and violence.\n \n Harjant Gill is professor of anthropology at Towson University. His research examines the intersections of masculinity\, modernity\, transnational migration\, and popular culture in India. Gill is also an award-winning filmmaker and has made several ethnographic films that have screened at international film festivals and on television channels worldwide including BBC World News\, Doordarshan (Indian National TV) and PBS. Gill is also the recipient of the Point Foundation Scholarship\, Fulbright-Nehru Research Fellowship\, American Institute of Indian Studies Performing Arts Fellowship\, the Institute for Citizens & Scholars' Career Enhancement Fellowship\, and the Whiting Foundation Public Engagement Fellowship.

In this talk\, we will discuss about actions on manifolds by higher rank lattices under the dynamical assumption (existence of positive (topological) entropy element). We will focus on\, how\, under certain assumptions\, one can obtain information about the action group. We will also see that how one can obtain ‘’homogeneous'' structure of the manifold from the dynamics.\nThe talk is based on a joint work with Aaron Brown.

Excavations in the ancient capital of Aksum trace the origins of the Aksumite dynasty to the 2nd century B.C. The Aksumites were preceded at least from the 8th century B.C. by an indigenous culture which ran parallel to a successful colonial or emigre community of Sabeans who came from directly across the Red Sea in Yemen. The Sabeans brought with them their written language\, for which epigraphic evidence is not lacking. The Aksumites used Ge’ez\, an independent subgroup of the Semitic languages\, known from epigraphic inscriptions to have been fully developed by the 3rd century A.D. The royal court adopted Christianity along with other kingdoms situated on the periphery of the Byzantine Empire\, shortly before the Conversion of Constantine in the second quarter of the 4th century. The Garima Gospels\, recently attributed to the 5th-7th c. A.D.\, are among the earliest\, if not the earliest extant translations of the Greek Bible. Sitting squarely on the maritime trade route between Rome\, Persia\, India and points east\, this highland stronghold was the recipient of cultural and technological developments from both directions\; its religions\, of which Christianity became the most dominant\, arrived from the Eastern Mediterranean and Red Sea regions\, while significant aspects of material culture were carried by the trade winds across the Indian Ocean\, particularly from the Subcontinent itself. Due largely to its geographic position\, Ethiopia belongs neither to the East nor to the West but has developed over the millennia as a unique socio-political entity that is very different from its neighbors in Egypt\, Sudan\, Somalia\, and Arabia. This presentation will focus on its global connections across time and space\, with particular reference to the imported textiles that appear on the inner book boards of some Christian manuscripts and Mamluk metalware used during religious ceremonies.\n\nMichael Gervers is trained as a Western medievalist (B.A. Princeton\; PhD University of Toronto) with particular interests in charters and material cultural. As an M.A. student at the Centre d’études supérieures de civilization médiévale at the Université de Poitiers\, he excavated the rock-hewn church of St. Georges below the village of Gurat in the French Aquitaine. The pursuit of rock-hewn ecclesiastical architecture led him to Ethiopia\, where he has worked for the past 40 years recording art and culture\, with 70\,000 images deposited in the database Mazgaba Seelat (https://ethiopia.utsc.utoronto.ca/). Research in Ethiopia has led him to the study of Mamluk metalware\, and ancient imported textiles preserved on the book boards of manuscripts.
