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:107870-21817941@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:20241019T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241019T200000 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:84303-21621420@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:20241019T110200 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241019T170000 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).

Modeled after Homer’s epic poem The Odyssey\, Ulysses is the latest project by the New York City-based theater company Elevator Repair Service\, perhaps best known for Gatz\, its award-winning verbatim staging of the entire text of The Great Gatsby.\n\nBuilding on a rich history of staging modernist texts\, Elevator Repair Service takes on this mammoth work of 21st-century literature (in an abridged version!) for their UMS debut. Seven performers sit down for a sober reading but soon find themselves guzzling pints\, getting in brawls\, and committing debaucheries as they careen on a fast-forward tour through Joyce’s funhouse of styles. With madcap antics and a densely layered sound design\, Elevator Repair Service presents an eclectic sampling from Joyce’s life-affirming masterpiece.

Marrying nostalgic storytelling to nuanced\, folk-infused indie rock\, the Richmond\, Virginia band embroiders heartfelt melody and harmony with acoustic and electric instrumentation to create a 12-song rumination on time\, love and personal growth that’s equal parts urgent epiphany and contented exhalation.\n\nOriginally formed as a college cover band in 1992 and with over 3\,500 famously enthused live shows together\, Carbon Leaf helped to define the aughts indie rock that they ultimately outgrew and outlasted. They first earned national recognition with “The Boxer\,” a song that won the American Music Awards 2002 New Music Award and made Carbon Leaf the first unsigned band to perform before millions on the AMAs.\n\n“The Boxer” entered regular radio rotation\, Carbon Leaf’s tours grew bigger and better\, and within a couple of years they quit their day jobs and inked a record deal. The band’s fanbase snowballed\, drawn to their infectious spirit of commitment\, empathy\, communion\, and selfreliance – not to mention supremely crafted songs with ultra-relatable\, thought-provoking lyrics.\n\nAfter a trio of charting albums for Vanguard Records\, multiple songwriting awards and headlining shows\, Carbon Leaf opted to return to the complete creative control of their indie roots. Guitarist Terry Clark\, who co-founded the band with Privett and multi-instrumentalist Carter Gravatt\, converted his garage into the band’s Two-Car Studio\, where they’ve recorded releases for their own Constant Ivy imprint ever since. Carbon Leaf’s DIY spirit even extended to re-recording their three Vanguard albums in order to regain the rights.\n\nDue in September\, Time is the Playground is Carbon Leaf’s first full-length album in a decade\, during which they released two EPS and a 27-song live performance album and Blu-ray. Time is the Playground gathers the best of songs written\, in fits and starts\, over 15 years\, alongside brand new ideas. \n\n“Thinking about these disparate pieces of music\, I began ruminating on time itself\,” Privett recalled. “The band’s been together a long time. You mature a bit and see yourself in place on the timeline … rolling around the scenes of love and growth.”\n\nTime is the Playground will be accompanied by the tireless touring almost synonymous with Carbon Leaf\, who’ve become a model for self-managing bands in the digital landscape.

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:107870-21817942@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:20241020T060014 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241020T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241020T120000 SUMMARY:Other:Soccer practice!

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:84303-21621421@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:20241020T120005 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241020T111100 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241020T121100 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).

Modeled after Homer’s epic poem The Odyssey\, Ulysses is the latest project by the New York City-based theater company Elevator Repair Service\, perhaps best known for Gatz\, its award-winning verbatim staging of the entire text of The Great Gatsby.\n\nBuilding on a rich history of staging modernist texts\, Elevator Repair Service takes on this mammoth work of 21st-century literature (in an abridged version!) for their UMS debut. Seven performers sit down for a sober reading but soon find themselves guzzling pints\, getting in brawls\, and committing debaucheries as they careen on a fast-forward tour through Joyce’s funhouse of styles. With madcap antics and a densely layered sound design\, Elevator Repair Service presents an eclectic sampling from Joyce’s life-affirming masterpiece.

To observe the manifestations of a younger you’s inner life. To be honest\, it’s often cringy and anxiety inducing. With the benefit of hindsight\, our shortsightedness and misplaced fears and hopes seem so obvious. \n\nAs I look back\, ten years later\, to the person I was when I made Ledges\, I see a young man full of ambition and naivety\, desperate for validation and a sense of belonging. I see a boy with a singular vision and a hell of a lot to learn. \n\nThey say you have your whole life to make your first record and 18 months to make your second. Although Ledges isn’t technically my first album\, for all intents and purposes\, it feels like it. It was the one I spent years writing. Some songs were written on a mattress on the floor of a rented room I shared with a friend\, in a run down old house I moved into when I left my folks place at 17. Some I wrote in my first apartment in Seattle. One was written in the early hours of the morning\, waking up on a friend's couch to a simple\, beautiful piano arrangement Abby wrote. One\, after the unexpected heroin overdose that resulted in the death of a friend. Another\, after briefly reigniting an old flame\, only to watch it quickly burn out. \n\nEverything was new back then. The colors were brighter\, the highs higher\, the lows lower. Falling in love felt like the first time. Heartbreak felt like the end of the world. Ideas felt important and the future was a big\, empty canvas.\n\nThere’s a lot of self importance in all of this and ultimately this is just some record that some kid made. But to that kid this record felt like his whole world. And like all records\, it’s a little snapshot in time. And how lucky we are to have snapshots\, photographs of moments and memories that ground us in the reality we’ve lived.\n\nI don’t want to live in the past. But I’m grateful for this marker of how it once was. A little simpler\, a little cleaner\, a whole lot of potential. And maybe that’s a reminder that I’m living in that potential\, right now. This is the future I imagined and hoped for. This is the person I am now. And it’s nice to be able to look back and see how far I’ve come. And if you found this record 10 years ago\, I hope you can listen back with the same gentle hindsight.\n\nVIP ticket includes:\n\nOne General Admission ticket\nPre-show acoustic performance (requests allowed!)\nOpportunity for Q&A with Noah\nAutographed setlist\nExclusive tour poster\, signed by Noah\nCommemorative VIP laminate\nEarly entry to the venue\n\nhttps://www.noahgundersen.com/ UID:122427-21849180@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/122427 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Ark,Concert,Music,Mutotix LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241020T181542 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241020T193000 SUMMARY:Sporting Event:Volleyball vs Wisconsin DESCRIPTION:Volleyball vs Wisconsin UID:124786-21853787@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/124786 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Athletics,Athletics - Volleyball LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241018T181702 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241020T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241020T213000 SUMMARY:Performance:Genki Endo\, taiko DESCRIPTION:As the leader of Yamakiya Taiko\, a group of talented young musicians\, GENKI ENDO brings unmatched energy\, precision\, and passion to every performance.

First we'll be showing the German silent film *The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari* – one of the original silent horror films that explores the dark corners of the psyche through the story of a carnival hypnotist by day who uses his somnambulist partner to commit murders by night! The work is underscored by the incredible string quartet music of composer and pianist STEPHEN PRUTSMAN\, evoking the psychological terror of these twisted visuals through the language of 12-tone technique and aesthetic of the 2nd Viennese School. Post-intermission we'll move on to the original music of that very school\, into the romantically tortured mind of composer ALBAN BERG and his Lyric Suite – a latent opera on its surface\, but actually a secret letter of unrequited love to Hannah Fuchs-Robettin\, Alban Berg's self-proclaimed soulmate. Come join us for this gaze into the dark corners of the human psyche and THERE WILL BE POPCORN!\n\nABOUT TELEGRAPH QUARTET\n\nErin Chin & Joseph Maile\, violins\nPei-Ling Lin\, viola\nJeremiah Shaw\, cello\n\nThe TELEGRAPH QUARTET formed in 2013 with an equal passion for standard and contemporary chamber music repertoire. Described by the *San Francisco Chronicle* as “…an incredibly valuable addition to the cultural landscape” and “powerfully adept… with a combination of brilliance and subtlety\,” the Telegraph Quartet was awarded the prestigious 2016 Walter W. Naumburg Chamber Music Award and the Grand Prize at the 2014 Fischoff Chamber Music Competition. The Quartet is currently the Quartet-in-Residence at the University of Michigan.\n\nThe Quartet has performed in New York City’s Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center\, San Francisco’s Herbst Theatre\, the San Francisco Conservatory of Music’s *Chamber Masters Series*\, and at festivals including the Chautauqua Institute\, Kneisel Hall Chamber Music Festival\, and the Emilia Romagna Festival. They have collaborated with pianists Leon Fleisher and Simone Dinnerstein\; cellists Norman Fischer and Bonnie Hampton\; violinist Ian Swensen\; and the St. Lawrence Quartet and Henschel Quartett. A fervent champion of 20th- and 21st-century repertoire\, the Telegraph Quartet has premiered works by Osvaldo Golijov\, John Harbison\, Robert Sirota\, and Richard Festinger.\n\nIn August 2023\, the Telegraph Quartet released its latest album *Divergent Paths*\, the first in a series of recordings titled *20th Century Vantage Points*\, on Azica Records. *Divergent Paths*\, featuring Ravel’s String Quartet in F Major and Schoenberg’s String Quartet No. 1 in D minor\, Op. 7\, follows *Into The Light* (Centaur\, 2018)\, an album highlighting a gripping set of works by Leon Kirchner\, Anton Webern\, and Benjamin Britten.\n\nhttps://smtd.umich.edu/the-telegraph-quartet-begins-three-year-residency-at-smtd/ UID:125087-21854349@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/125087 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Faculty,Free,Music,North Campus LOCATION:Walgreen Drama Center - Stamps Auditorium CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241021T180020 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241021T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241021T235959 SUMMARY:Other:2024 MIT Tournament DESCRIPTION:Come compete with us in Poomsae and Sparring at MIT!!

The influence of weather and climate on water quality can be uneven and unequitable because of the changing climate pattern and its complex relationship with pollutant sources and transport factors over space and time. In this talk\, I will introduce my research on how the interplay of climate change\, watershed development\, and socioeconomic factors influence surface water quality and the associated ecosystem services. I will also introduce how I use a landscape architecture perspective to create a resilient and equitable water environment through possible landscape design and community engagement approaches.

Both poets talk back to Stein\, exposing the racial and gender dynamics embedded in her work. Mullen’s adaptations\, Trimmings (1991) and S*PeRM**KT (1992)\, explore how Stein’s elliptical language fractures objects and objectifies people within the context of racialized capitalism. Morris’s handholding: five kinds (2016) further challenges avant-garde assumptions by revisiting Stein’s Tender Buttons with the nonce form of a handholding poem\, a critical-creative dialogue that simultaneously critiques and re-envisions Stein's work. I explore how Morris\, in particular\, builds upon Mullen’s insights to transform the legacy of Stein’s modernist text\, revealing the racialized undercurrents that inform her aesthetic principles while also positioning herself as a contemporary capable of remaking Stein’s work. By doing so\, Morris demonstrates that reading Stein with double vision — seeing both the original work and the critique layered upon it — transforms not only the text but the act of reading itself.

His acclaimed graphic memoir\, *When Stars Are Scattered*\, co-authored with Victoria Jamieson\, captures his experiences growing up in one of the world’s largest refugee camps with his younger brother\, Hassan. The book provides a vivid\, deeply personal account of life in Dadaab\, portraying the day-to-day challenges of refugee life\, including the pursuit of education\, access to food\, and navigating an uncertain future.\n\n*When Stars Are Scattered* has resonated with readers of all ages\, shedding light on the human side of the global refugee crisis. The book has been praised for its heart-wrenching portrayal of perseverance in the face of hardship. The graphic novel is not only a memoir but a call to empathy\, inviting readers to understand the struggles and hopes of millions of displaced people worldwide. It was a National Book Award Finalist for Young People’s Literature in 2020 and the winner of the Josette Frank Award in 2020. It also won the Walter Dean Myers Award for Young Readers in 2021. It received starred reviews from Booklist\, The Horn Book\, Kirkus Reviews\, Publishers Weekly\, and School Library Journal.\n \nBeyond his writing\, Mohamed is also the founder of Refugee Strong\, a non-profit organization dedicated to improving the education and well-being of refugee children living in camps. Refugee Strong provides school supplies\, resources\, and support to ensure that young refugees have the tools they need to succeed despite the challenges they face. Mohamed’s ongoing work with the Dadaab camp\, where he returns regularly\, is a vital part of his mission to give back to the community that shaped his early life. His advocacy continues to inspire\, drawing attention to the global refugee crisis while offering a message of hope for the future.

In his speech titled \"The future problems of mathematics\,\" Hilbert presented (a subset of) his famous list of 23 unsolved problems to be studied in the coming century. Attempts to solve these problems have since resulted in interesting developments throughout mathematics.\n\nThis talk will briefly present some of Hilbert's problems\, their current status\, and broader mathematical developments resulting from them. Since these problems range greatly in the precision of their statement\, it is hard to describe the current status of every single one of them. Furthermore\, depending on how \"resolved\" is defined\, there may be different answers as to whether some of these problems have been resolved. The talk will address this in more detail.\n\nAfter explaining the relevant background (for example\, consistency and decision problems)\, we will study in detail Hilbert's first and tenth problems\, i.e. the continuum hypothesis and the existence of an algorithm to determine whether any diophantine equation has an integer solution. Through these problems\, we will address the notions of independence and undecidability.

The talk will begin with an overall orientation to Kraus's research approach to inequality. From there\, he will describe the theoretical background of this narrative\, highlighting the psychological and structural drivers of the tendency to overestimate racial equality and progress toward achieving it. Along the way he will summarize the state of the evidence in support of racial progress beliefs. Having provided this summary\, he will conclude by discussing some of our emerging efforts to promote more realistic conceptions of racial inequality\, and how narratives of racial progress act as barriers to the actual achievement of racial equity. More about Michael Kraus: www.michaelwkraus.com\n\nThe RCGD Seminar Series on the Social Psychology of Systemic Racism meets Mondays from 3:30 to 5 at ISR Thompson 1430. When speaker permission is given\, events will be recorded and posted within a few weeks to YouTube.\n\nThe Social Psychology of Systemic Racism\nWhat are the points of connection between structures and individuals when we think about bias? In the Fall 2024 RCGD Seminar Series “The Social Psychology of Systemic Racism\,” an all-star lineup of behavioral and political psychologists will define what\, in their words\, makes systemic racism systemic\, and how extra-individual levels of analysis could be incorporated in social psychological theories and methods.\n\nGroup Dynamics Seminar Series\nThe Group Dynamics Seminar series is considered one of the longest running seminar series in the social sciences. It has been running uninterruptedly since it was founded by Kurt Lewin in the 1920’s in Berlin. The seminar series runs every semester on a theme chosen by faculty organizer/s who are affiliated with the Research Center for Group Dynamics at the Institute for Social Research. A very important feature of this seminar today is its interdisciplinary nature. Recent themes have included political polarization\, evolution and human behavior\, and cultural psychology UID:123108-21850320@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/123108 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Diversity Equity And Inclusion,Psychology,Social Sciences LOCATION:Institute For Social Research - 1430 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240924T092544 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241021T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241021T180000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Arthur Aiton Lecture: In Search of a Slave Ship: Memory\, History\, and Reparations­­­—The Quilombo of Bracuí\, 1852 DESCRIPTION:The quilombola [maroon] community of Bracuí in Brazil has preserved the history of the African slave trade on their lands for nearly two centuries through oral storytelling. This includes the story of the intentional sinking of the unlawful slaving ship Camargo by its captain\, Nathaniel Gordon of the United States. This narrative\, documented by the discovery of written sources\, forms one of the fundamental bases of the community’s past\, identity\, and struggle for rights. Currently\, a group of archaeologists and historians\, in partnership with the quilombola community\, is conducting a research project at the site and exploring new documentary sources while supporting community-led tourism and public history initiatives.\n\nMartha Abreu is a professor of history at Fluminense Federal University\, Brazil whose work focuses on the history of Brazil and the African diaspora in the Americas. She has published numerous books and articles on popular culture\, black music\, cultural heritage\, post-abolition societies\, memory of slavery and race relations. She has also co-produced several documentary films\, exhibitions\, and memory sites on the public history of slavery.\n\nCurrently\, she is cultural director and administrative vice president of AfrOrigens\, a multinational project to recover shipwrecked slave ships and disseminate evidence of enslavement as a crime against humanity. She is also co-creator and manager of a multi-site public history project\, \"Present Pasts: The Memory of Slavery in Brazil\"\; and co-curator of the Museum of the Territory of Little Africa\, Rio de Janeiro for the Museum of Afro-Brazilian History and Culture (MUHCAB).\n\nThis lecture is sponsored by the Aiton Lecture Committee.

Jacob Wallis\, Ambassador (ret.) Susan Ziadeh\, Ambassador (ret.) David Satterfield\, and Ambassador (ret.) Ronald E. Neumann\n\nThe Middle East is again in turmoil. The destructive Palestinian-Israeli struggle has exploded into multiple regional crises. Israeli military exchanges with Hezbollah in Lebanon\, the interruption of Red Sea commerce due to attacks from Houthis in Yemen\, direct Iranian-Israeli bombing \, and the active engagement of US military forces in the region are all part of the regional picture. While most participants appear to want to avoid all-out war\, the region is as close to full scale war as it has been in many years. America stands a high chance of being drawn into direct combat in an expansion\, and the issue already roils US university campuses and the halls of Congress. A single discussion will not probe all aspects of the long-standing conflict\, but it can draw out multiple\, critical threads for examination and discussion. That is the focus of this year’s Ambassadors’ Forum.

It is realized by the so-called \"Radon transform\,\" which categorifies a basic multiplication operation on the finite-dimensional Hecke algebra. In this talk\, we study the affine analogue of Ringel duality\, realized by the affine Radon transform between sheaves on the thin and thick affine flag varieties. Our main tool is Bezrukavnikov's equivalence between two categorifications of the affine Hecke algebra associated to a reductive group\, which can be thought of as a tamely ramified local geometric Langlands correspondence. By understanding how the affine Radon transform functor interacts with various t-structures which appear naturally in Bezrukavnikov's equivalence\, we use this functor to prove a conjecture of Arkhipov-Bezrukavnikov concerning convolution-exact and tilting perverse sheaves which appears in one of the first installments in the series of papers which established Bezrukavnikov's equivalence.

Applied to the Fokas-Its-Kitaev Riemann-Hilbert problem\, this enables the computation of orthogonal polynomials on multiple intervals\, requiring only O(N) arithmetic operations to compute the first N recurrence coefficients. Such recurrence coefficients describe the flow of a semi-infinite Toda lattice\, and expansions in these orthogonal polynomials yield a novel iterative method for solving indefinite linear systems and computing matrix functions\, further yielding a fast algorithm for computing the solutions of Sylvester matrix equations. Other Riemann-Hilbert problems of this form yield finite-genus and soliton gas solutions of the Korteweg-de Vries equation. In particular\, we compute large-genus solutions to simulate dispersive quantization and evaluate soliton gas solutions before asymptotic estimates are valid.

The dancefloor-shaking\, electro-trad glorious combination of folk/pop has brought so much joy to audiences around the world. And now\, even posthumously\, Koady’s energetic fire continues to blaze the musical trail onward.\n\nIt was on January 6\, 2022 that Koady Chaisson of The East Pointers passed away from an unexpected heart aneurysm at 37. Those who were lucky to have been influenced by his creative and generous soul felt like a black hole had suddenly formed where the supernova of Koady’s light had been.\n\nBut before his passing\, Koady\, Tim Chaisson\, and Jake Charron\, had recorded most of the tracks for two new EPs. Unlike any of the The East Pointers’ material to date\, these precious songs are shiny and melodic\, nostalgia-flared\, folk experimental pop but with the same driving trad hooks for which the band has become known and revered.

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:84303-21621422@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:20241016T130256 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241022T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241022T130000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Markups Across the Income Distribution: Measurement and Implications DESCRIPTION:I examine the relationship between customer income and firm markups using rich data on household transactions and wholesale costs. Over the observed purchases\, high-income households pay 15pp higher retail markups than low-income households. Half of the markup gap is due to differences in markups paid at the same store. Conditional on income\, markups paid by a household also increase when a household shops in high-income areas\, shops at retail chains with locations in other high-income areas\, or purchases products with a high-income customer base. A model in which household search intensity depends on opportunity cost of time can account for these facts. Consistent with the model’s predictions\, I document that retail markups across cities rise with both per-capita income and inequality. Through the lens of the model\, changes in the income distribution since 1950 account for a 10–14pp rise in retail markups\, with 30 percent of the increase since 1980 due to growing income dispersion. This rise in markups consists of within-firm markup increases as well as a reallocation of sales to high-markup firms\, which occurs without any change to the nature of firm production or competition.

Conrad is a current graduate student and instructor at UM in the field of Complex Systems.\n\nAbstract\nThis talk will focus mostly on my work on U.S. incomes. I show that U.S. incomes follow a one-parameter family of probability distributions over more than 50 years of data. I compare statistical models of income\, and highlight the inverse-gamma distribution as a parsimonious model that matches data particularly well and has straightforward theoretical interpretations. However\, despite having relatively few parameters\, the inverse-gamma distribution still overfits income data. I establish a linear relationship between parameter estimates\, and a one-dimensional model emerges naturally when I exploit this relationship. I conclude with theoretical remarks about the model and about the Gini coefficient. Time permitting\, I will briefly discuss my other research interests including Nash equilibrium existence and theory of deadlines and procrastination.

Empirical evidence for this hypothesis as it relates to plant chemical defense has been mixed\, and several confounding variables have been suggested to contribute to the inconsistency of results. For example\, because there is no established ‘standard’ method for the quantification or comparison of plant chemicals\, there is substantial methodological variation introduced between studies. In this study\, we disentangle the potentially confounding impacts of chemical methodology as well as plant life history traits on the relationship between chemical defense and latitude using meta-analysis.\nhttp://www.theweberlab.com/ \nhttps://bioio.org/\n\n-- Madelyn Foulkes\, EEB Undergraduate student \nTalk title: How Is Competitive Success Determined between Heterotrophic Bacteria in the Algal Microbiome?\n\nSummary: Chlorella sorokiniana is a crucial pillar of the Laurentian Great Lakes food web and a critical component of water filtration and biogeochemical cycling. Recently there has been an increased interest in studying Chlorella growth by examining interactions in the external microbiome\, which comprises the microbes in the phycosphere that interact with a host organism that can consequently alter host behavior\, fitness\, and enrichment of heterotrophic bacteria. However\, the mechanism behind these interactions has yet to be understood. This project seeks to compare unidirectional and bidirectional relationships between host Chlorella and phycosphere-dwelling bacteria to understand why these species live together\, how competitive success in the microbiome is established\, and the molecular underpinnings that foster these relationships. \n\n-- Will Weaver\, PhD Candidate\, Smith Lab\, GSCA for the Michigan Herbarium\nTalk title: Building an automated specimen label transcription workflow with large language models\n\nSummary: A major challenge in making natural history specimen vouchers findable and accessible is the slow process of manual label transcription. To address this\, VoucherVision automates the extraction and transcription process using OCR\, handwriting recognition\, and vision-based large language models (v-LLMs)\, producing formatted JSON for collections databases. By fine-tuning LLMs and using a system of collaborating agents\, we significantly enhance transcription accuracy and customization for institutional needs. Additionally\, our editing interface helps reduce human-induced errors\, ensuring high-quality transcriptions by preventing issues like hallucinations or omissions.\nhttps://huggingface.co/spaces/phyloforfun/VoucherVision\nhttps://bsapubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ajb2.16256\nhttps://michigan.it.umich.edu/news/2024/10/11/digitizing-1-7-million-specimens-at-the-u-m-herbarium-with-ai/\n\n-- Ben Nicholas\, PhD Candidate\, EEB\nTalk title: Shadows of radiations past: did early divergence of the pharyngeal jaw apparatus set the stage for trophic diversification of modern Neotropical cichlids?\n\nSummary: Understanding how continental assemblages have diversified can be difficult as they are products of extinction\, biogeographic rearrangements\, and changing environments over millions of years. Much of our knowledge of adaptive radiations stems from relatively recent\, insular-like systems. However\, increasing evidence supports the idea that adaptive radiations have a major role in hyper diverse continental radiations like Neotropical cichlids. This primarily riverine group has undergone adaptive diversification in many into ecologically\, morphologically\, and behaviorally complex lineages. Surprisingly\, the macroevolutionary patterns of the entire pharyngeal jaw is relatively understudied in Neotropical cichlids. In this study we use µCT scans to characterize the morphological diversity of the entire pharyngeal system across Neotropical cichlids and test for signatures of adaptive radiation.

Faculty fellows at the Institute for the Humanities will discuss a part of their current project in a short talk followed by a Q & A session.\n\nAbout this talk: In urban planning and design\, the concept of placemaking emphasizes community participation\, diversity\, and everyday residents’ role in producing place\, often through artistic interventions in public spaces. This talk examines the emergence of placemaking as a field of expertise in Detroit and nationally. It argues that placemaking resolves a key tension in the professional practice of urban planning and within Detroit’s efforts to publicly engage communities in urban development. The urge to involve the community in decision-making comes at a time when urban inequities have gained prominence in public policy. Placemaking aims to resolve this tension by symbolically elevating the local histories and affective ties of longtime residents\, while promoting market-aligned economic development. \n\nJacob Lederman is a 2024-25 Norman Freehling Visiting Fellow at the Institute for the Humanities and Associate Professor\; Sociology\, Anthropology\, and Criminal Justice at U-M Flint.

They use the label ‘Soft City Sensing’ (SCS) to outline an approach to data-driven urban cartography that takes inspiration from pragmatist theories of publics as well as attempts to create human-centered urban maps by scholars such as Robert Park and Stanley Milgram. The aim with SCS is to advance an ideographic approach to mapping that uses quali-quantitative digital data to tap into the multitude of urban values in circulation around situated urban issues. As such\, it is a call for urban decision makers to expand their criteria for what serves as valid inputs to urban planning.\n\nAfter outlining the theoretical trajectory of SCS\, Professor Koed Madsen will outline their approach through a recent collaboration with a local Danish architecture company called Henning Larsen. In developing a proposition to an idea-competition for the development of a new area of Copenhagen\, they engaged in an experiment to understand the identity of the area though place-based social media data. More specifically they used qualitative AI to map the visual characteristics of the area through patterns in 35.000 Instagram images and its social characteristics through a segmentation analysis of event-attendance amongst Facebook users. Professor Koed Madsen will discuss how this way of visualizing the area slowed down reasoning among the architects involved\, but also came with a range of problems regarding algorithmic effects\, data ethics\, and more.\n\nBio: Anders Koed Madsen is professor in techno-anthropology and computational SSH at Aalborg University where he serves as head of experimental practice at TANTLab. During the last five years he has developed ‘Soft City Sensing’ as a distinct framework for mapping and conceptualizing the social infrastructure of urban publics through the digital traces they leave of their urban life. This work draws on his distinct interdisciplinary background in pragmatist philosophy\, computational humanities\, internet studies and organizational analysis.\n\nWe want to make our events accessible to all participants.

Zoom registration at: https://myumi.ch/3QrPA\n\nIn this talk\, Professor Carter will cover how state secrecy came to be seen as despotic in the years preceding the American and French revolutions. She will then examine how revolutionaries who sought to fashion representative governments in North America and France confronted the challenge of determining secrecy's place in their new regimes. In a context where gaining public trust seemed to demand transparency\, was secrecy ever legitimate? Whether in Philadelphia or Paris\, establishing popular sovereignty required navigating between an ideological imperative to eradicate secrets from the state and a practical need to limit transparency in government. The fight over this—dividing revolutionaries and vexing founders—would determine the nature of the world’s first representative democracies.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

These materials are represented by MnBi 2 Te 4 and its derived superlattices MnBi 2n Te 3n+1 . However\, it has been controversial whether these materials exhibit the key ingredient for magnetic topological phases: an energy gap due to the time-reversal symmetry breaking. Moreover\, the construction of high-quality magnetic topological insulators at the ultrathin limit has met significant challenges. In this talk\, I will present a new technique\, layer-encoded frequency-domain photoemission spectroscopy\, which allows us to decipher the layer origins of various electronic states. By encoding layer indices with intralayer phonon frequencies\, we measure the strengths of coupling with layer-specific phonons. This experiment reveals that the topological surface states on antiferromagnetic MnBi 4 Te 7 are partially relocated to the nonmagnetic layers\, reconciling the mystery of vanishing broken-symmetry gaps. Moreover\, I will present our recent progress on the “carpet-growth” of Bi 2 Te 3 ultrathin films and MnBi 2 Te 4 /Bi 2 Te 3 heterostructures using molecular beam epitaxy. These thin films extend coherently across a millimeter spatial scale without disruptions by substrate step edges. Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy studies yield unprecedentedly sharp electronic structures in agreement with first-principles calculations layer-by-layer\, and suggest opportunities to realize the quantum spin Hall effect at near-ambient temperatures. \n\nBio: Shuolong Yang pioneered in combining femtosecond temporal control and atomic-layer engineering of quantum materials.

Charting the interplay of bodies\, money\, and time\, the ethnography reveals how these migrant workers\, in the course of pursuing their borderland dreams\, are transformed into a transnational ethnicized class. Kwon analyzes the persistent desire of Korean Chinese to “leave to live better” at the intersection between the neoliberalizing regimes of post-socialist China and post–Cold War South Korea. Scrutinizing the tensions and affinities among the Korean Chinese\, North and South Koreans\, and Han Chinese whose lives intertwine in the borderland\, Kwon captures the diverse and multifaceted aspirations of Korean Chinese workers caught between the ascendant Chinese dream and the waning Korean dream.\n \n June Hee Kwon is Associate Professor of the Asian Studies Program at California State University Sacramento. Trained as a cultural anthropologist\, \n\nDr. Kwon's teaching and research have focused on Korean diaspora and transnational migration\, borderlands and political ecology\, materiality and affect\, gendered labor and class formation\, and human suffering and memories. Her area of expertise spans contemporary Korea (North and South)\, China\, and Japan and includes postcolonial and post-Cold War culture and political economy across East Asia. As a sequel to her first book\, Borderland Dreams\, Dr. Kwon works on the next book project\, Citrus Island: The Social History of Fruit Trees in Jeju\, Korea\, examining the intersection among transnational migration\, fruit farming\, and ecological transformation.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at ncks.info@umich.edu.

He defends this proposition not through legal reasoning\, but via his apocalyptic commitments. He’s teaching a kind of Judaism 2.0 for gentiles.

Eliot\, and the Role of a Lifetime. Fitzgerald will be in conversation with Sigrid Anderson\, University of Michigan Librarian liaison to the Department of English Language and Literature and the Sweetland Center For Writing.\n\nAfter the conclusion of the in-conversation\, there will be an audience Q&A\, followed by a book signing provided by Literati Bookstore.\n\nAbout the book: In January 2020\, the largest and most eagerly awaited cache of new materials written by the Nobel-Prize-winning poet T. S. Eliot was finally opened: the 1\,131 letters he sent Emily Hale\, his little-known American love. But even as Eliot scholars explore Hale’s impact on Eliot’s work\, a tantalizing question has not been fully answered: who was Emily Hale?\n\nSara Fitzgerald’s book is the first full-length biography devoted to Hale\, telling her side of a complicated relationship. Based on the embargoed letters and Fitzgerald’s extensive research into Hale’s life and times\, this book brings to light that Hale was much more than just a muse to a literary celebrity. Hale overcame personal hardship to pursue a career as a professor of speech and drama at prominent American women’s colleges and schools. She was a talented amateur actress and director\, sharing the stage with others who went on to notable professional careers. Behind the scenes\, she also guided Eliot as he began to explore playwriting with works such as Murder in the Cathedral.\n\nHale’s story is challenging to wholly uncover because the Boston clergyman’s daughter was by nature reticent and humble. More critically\, Eliot arranged for nearly all of her letters to be destroyed. The Silenced Muse finally reveals that Hale’s story is not that of a lover scorned\, but rather a woman who was herself gifted and celebrated by her students and peers.\n\nSara Fitzgerald is a retired journalist whose career included fifteen years as an editor and new media developer for the Washington Post. She graduated from Michigan in 1973 with a B.A. in honors history and journalism. She is the author of the biography Elly Peterson: “Mother” of the Moderates\, recognized as a Notable Book of 2012 by the Library of Michigan as well as by the Historical Society of Michigan. In 2020\, she published Conquering Heroines: How Women Fought Sex Bias at Michigan and Paved the Way for Title IX. Both books were published by University of Michigan Press. In 2020\, she also published The Poet’s Girl: A Novel of Emily Hale and T. S. Eliot. Since then\, her essays about Hale have appeared in the Journal of the T. S. Eliot Society\; T. S. Eliot Studies Annual\; Time Present\, the newsletter of the International T. S. Eliot Society\; and Exchanges\, the newsletter of the T. S. Eliot Society (UK). She lives in the Washington\, DC\, area.\n\nSigrid Anderson is the Librarian for English Language and Literature and Disability Studies and a lecturer in American Culture at the University of Michigan. Her current research focuses on print culture and women’s reproductive health in the nineteenth and early twentieth century US. She is the author of Fictions of Dissent: Reclaiming Authority in Transatlantic Women's Writing of the Late Nineteenth Century (Pickering and Chatto\, 2010) and Settling the Land of Sunshine: Race\, Gender\, and Regional Development in a California Periodical (University of Nebraska\, 2024).

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:124224-21852717@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:20241004T143940 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241023T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241023T120000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Talent Acquisition Bootcamp DESCRIPTION:Course details and registration are available on the Organizational Learning website.

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.

Antimonide type-II superlattice for IR applications: The study of InAs/InAsSb T2SL on GaSb and its application to IR lasers was started in the early ’90s. The observation of a 412 ns long carrier lifetime in a long-wavelength infrared (LWIR) InAs/InAsSb T2SL in 2011 triggered extensive research on the fundamental materials properties and device applications. Pressure-dependent photoluminescence (PL) experiments revealed some underlying material physics of these long carrier lifetimes. Some of the device applications will also be discussed.\n2. Heterovalent integration and device applications: The study the monolithic integration of these families: II-VI (BeMgZnCdHg)(SeTe)\, III-V (AlGaIn)(BiPAsSb)\, IV-IV (SiGeSn)\, and IV-VI (PbSe\, PbTe) semiconductor binaries and their alloys lattice-matched to GaAs\, GaSb\, InP\, InAs or InSb substrates. These materials have direct bandgaps covering a very broad energy spectrum from far IR to UV (0 ~ 4 eV) and small thermal mismatch\, offering opportunities to study new physics in quantum materials\, such as electrical-field-induced topological insulators in heterovalent superlattice and thin-film superconductor on semiconductor (a-Sn/InSb)\, but also enables new solar cells\, multi-color photodetectors\, resonant tunneling diodes\, and facilitates monolithic integration of various materials without misfit dislocations to ensure the highest quality for device applications.\n\nBio\n\nProfessor Zhang did his thesis research at the Max Planck Institute for Solid States and received this doctoral degree in physics from the University of Stuttgart in 1991. He then worked as an Assistant Research Engineer at UCSB before he joined Hughes Research Labs (HRL) in 1993. In 1996\, he was appointed Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering at ASU and was promoted to full professor in 2000. He edited 3 books\, published 4 book chapters and more than 300 peer-reviewed journal and conference proceeding papers\, presented 400 invited and contributed conference presentations\, 18 issued and pending US patents\, advised over 30 PhD students and supervised over 40 postdocs and visiting scholars. He is a fellow of IEEE and OSA and has served as the Associate Dean for Research at the Fulton Schools of Engineering\, the director and Chair of the Governance Board of ASU NanoFab\, and the founding director of the Center for Photonics Innovation. His areas of research interest include Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) growth of II-VI\, III-V\, IV-IV\, and IV-VI materials\, optical properties of semiconductor heterostructures and their applications in solar cells\, photodetectors\, lasers\, and transistors. He is currently the chair and the co-chair of the international advisory boards for the International Conference on MBE and the North America Conference on MBE\, respectively.

Kane DESCRIPTION:How do we pull together those with skills and talents steeped in disciplinary knowledge and inhabitant experience to interpret and respond appropriately to the radical uncertainties of rivers and lakes enacting climate change extremes? Based on her ethnography of flood control in urbanized Manitoban floodplains\, Stephanie Kane identifies and recasts key aspects of traditional expert-inhabitant forecasting. She proposes touchstones for a place-based/planet-informed path forward that affectively and effectively grounds engineering\, science and law in environmental and social justice.\n\nAbout the speaker: Stephanie C. Kane is a cultural anthropologist and Emerit Professor of International Studies in the Hamilton Lugar School of Global and International Studies. Her earlier book on water and cities is entitled Where Rivers Meet the Sea: The Political Ecology of Water (2012\, Temple). Her most recent book\, Just One Rain Away: The Ethnography of River-city Flood Control (2022 McGill Queen’s) brings together diverse experimental fieldwork-based methods. Using geoscience and flood forecasting\, Kane interprets the perspective of water and ice as earth-shaping riverine actors who encounter collective humans in the form of cities. By drawing on official post-disaster reports\, novels\, a play\, personal experience narratives and an emergency press conference\, Just One Rain Away writes humanity’s existential climate-changing moment into the peculiar place-based intersection of historical and geological time.

Using geoscience and flood forecasting\, Kane interprets the perspective of water and ice as earth-shaping riverine actors who encounter collective humans in the form of cities. By drawing on official post-disaster reports\, novels\, a play\, personal experience narratives and an emergency press conference\, Just One Rain Away writes humanity’s existential climate-changing moment into the peculiar place-based intersection of historical and geological time.

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:84303-21621423@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:20241023T110200 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241023T170000 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).

Participants should come having read\, or at least partly read\, this book (feel free\, in fact\, to simply read the introduction and conclusion\, or any parts relevant to your own research before coming!). Dr. Sartori will briefly introduce his work (3-5 minutes) and the remaining time will be spent as an open q and a\, in which anyone in attendance can ask him any question they want about Sartori's new book\, the research that went into it\, his methodology\, what he sees as its interventions in the field\, and broader historiography pertaining to Islam in Soviet Central Asia. Due to the nature of this event\, the Central Asian Studies RIW is also happy to announce that we are giving out free (PDF) copies of A Soviet Sultanate - if you want one\, please simply reply to this email or email me directly and I will send you a copy. The Zoom Q and A with Dr. Sartori will run from 12:00pm to 1:20pm. Please register for the Zoom here to attend: https://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJ0od-mgpzIrGN1Gss4j3hl_VM77YYoRddxK . The Austrian Academy Sciences Press describes this book as \"the first English-language social history of Islam in Soviet Central Asia after WWII\, and it focuses on a key question: what did it mean to be a Muslim in Socialist Uzbekistan? The notion that in the eyes of many Soviet citizens Socialist Uzbekistan was an abode of Islam forms the book’s framing device for understanding how the atheist project of the Soviet empire ultimately failed\, but also how it simultaneously helped shape the range of meanings of Muslimness. The book’s central aim is to tell an epic narrative of resilience\, resistance and subversion\" (see the rest of their description here: https://verlag.oeaw.ac.at/en/product/a-soviet-sultanate/99200960?name=a-soviet-sultanate&product_form=5363 ). Dr. Sartori is a Senior Research Associate at the Austrian Academy of Sciences. There he is a fellow at their Institute of Iranian Studies and currently serves as the Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of the Economic and Social History of the Orient\, the Journal of Central Asian History (Brill) and as the Chairman of the Committee for the Study of Islam in Central Eurasia (https://www.oeaw.ac.at/sice). His main research interests are: the history of knowledge production about Islam in the Russian Empire\, with a special focus on the formation of archives in the post-Petrine era\; and Soviet Muslimness\, with special attention devoted to Central Asia after the Second World War. We are very pleased and honored that he is able to make time to hold this event with us\, and we hope you all are also able to attend.  UID:127010-21858294@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/127010 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Sessions LOCATION:ZOOM CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241107T123148 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241023T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241023T130000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:All Majors Welcomed: A Career at Creative Artists Agency (CAA) DESCRIPTION:CAA is a leading entertainment\, sports\, and media agency.     We represent many of the most successful professionals working in television\, film\, music\, theatre\, video games\, sports\, and digital content.

For a 2D electron system\, measuring the magnitude of these fluctuations provides a direct measurement of the electron temperature and enables methods for inferring specific heat and thermal conductivity. Here I show how to understand Johnson noise both for electrons whose flow is dictated by Ohm's law and for electrons whose flow is hydrodynamic. I then discuss experimental results from the group of Philip Kim\, which use Johnson noise measurements to demonstrate a novel method for inferring specific heat and thermal conductivity for arbitrary materials and quasiparticle excitations. Experiments in the Corbino geometry also reveal a novel\, qualitative signature of hydrodynamic flow without the need for nonlocal measurements.

Employer Learning in the Labor Market for Computer Scientists DESCRIPTION:This paper tests for employer learning about worker ability and quantifies the impact of learning on job mobility and innovation output in the labor market for computer scientists. I match the job history of over 40\,000 Ph.D. computer scientists (CS) with publications and patent applications that signal their research ability. Workers who publish at CS conferences are 45% more likely to move into a top tech firm in the next year than similar coworkers without such a public signal. Higher-quality papers are often filed as patent applications\, but the fact of filing remains private information at the incumbent employer for 18 months. Authors of such papers experience a delayed increase in upward mobility. Without employer learning from the public research records\, innovation output by early career computer scientists would drop by 15% due to greater misallocation of talent. Reducing asymmetric information between employers can expedite positive assortative matching and increase innovation by 5%.

Although predictions of the theory are typically made at extremely high energies and beyond the reach of current experiments and observations\, several non-trivial constraints have recently been found on its low-energy effective theory. Because of the unusual ultraviolet behavior of gravitational theory\, the standard argument for the separation of scales does not work for gravity\, leading to robust low-energy predictions of consistency requirements at high energy. For gravitational theories in asymptotically anti-de Sitter spacetimes\, we can formulate such constraints and aim to prove or falsify them using the AdS/CFT correspondence. I will review recent progress in this approach and discuss examples of such constraints and their implications for low energy physics.\n\nPlease join us for the lecture at 3:00 pm and a reception before the lecture beginning at 2:30 pm.

A natural construction using these classes\, called the Chern filtration\, has played a crucial role in recent proofs of the P=W conjecture\, where it is identified with the perverse filtration on moduli of Higgs bundles induced by the Hitchin fibration — a phenomenon now known as “P=C”. In this talk\, I will discuss an analog of this phenomenon for moduli of 1-dimensional sheaves on del Pezzo surfaces. I will survey recent progress\, highlight key differences from the P=W conjecture\, and explain some implications to enumerative geometry. Based on a series of papers joint with Y. Kononov\, W.

In this talk\, I will introduce two recent studies in this field. The first evaluates 15 clustering methods for spatial transcriptomics data using semi-synthetic datasets to discern the contributions of gene expression\, spatial\, and histological data. Our results indicate that while additional data layers can enhance clustering accuracy\, they do not consistently outperform traditional gene-expression-based approaches. The second study introduces spVC\, a novel statistical method inspired by the initial findings and designed using a generalized Poisson model to effectively detect and interpret spatial gene expression variations. spVC seamlessly integrates constant and spatially varying effects of covariates\, facilitating comprehensive exploration of gene expression variability and enhancing interpretability. These contributions reflect our ongoing commitment to refining analytical techniques in spatial transcriptomics\, ultimately enriching our biological understanding.

Hundreds of bands all over the world have contributed to a growing catalogue of thousands of songs\, including dozens of concept albums\, inspired by the history\, mythology\, philosophy\, and art of the ancient Mediterranean. This phenomenon has increasingly drawn the attention of antiquity scholars working within the nascent field of metal music studies\, who have noted how the genre’s predilection for themes of power\, violence\, monstrosity\, liberation\, and heritage make antiquity especially appealing for adaptation in music\, lyrics\, album artwork\, music videos\, stage performance\, and merchandise. Most of this reception reflects that in popular culture\, treating more familiar subjects like Medusa\, Sparta\, Alexander\, Cleopatra\, and Nero. Subjects from late antiquity appear less frequently—but the cases where they do are equally interesting and insightful\, if not more so\, into how profoundly metal artists can engage with both\nprimary and secondary sources for ancient political and religious history. These cases include concept albums on the tragic heroism of the emperor Julian and general Belisarius\, songs glorifying Diocletian’s persecutions and condemning Constantine’s conversion\, and cover artwork meant to depict the Visigothic sack of Rome. For heavy metal\, late antiquity is where the romanticized past collides with the dystopian present.\n\nJeremy Swist is a Visiting Assistant Professor in the Department of Classics at Grand Valley State University\, having previously taught at Miami University and Brandeis University. He earned his Ph.D. and MA in Classics from the University of Iowa\, and BA in Latin and History from the University of Maine. His published research has explored the intersections of Greek and Latin rhetoric\, philosophy\, medicine\, and historiography under the later Roman Empire\, especially around the emperor Julian. Jeremy’s first monograph\, titled Julian Augustus: Platonism\, Myth\, and the Refounding of Rome\, will be published by Oxford University Press next year. He has also published on the prolific reception of ancient Greece\, Rome\, and Byzantium in heavy metal music\, and is co-organizer of the biennial Heavy Metal and Global Premodernity online conference.

Since joining ESPN\, Katie has written almost exclusively about women\, LGBTQ athletes\, and pop culture. Most of their writing explores big ideas\, from how law and policy affects transgender athletes to how the intersection of race\, sexuality\, and gender expression affects the marketability of WNBA athletes to what makes “Bring It On” such an iconic sports movie. As a journalist and cultural commentator\, Katie has been interviewed by MSNBC\, CNN\, NPR\, WNYC\, multiple ESPN platforms\, and numerous podcasts about these topics.

DESCRIPTION:Muslim Americans are deeply concerned about the Gaza crisis\, for some it is prioritized over other issues. Despite being integrated into American society\, they also care about the economy\, climate change\, healthcare\, and immigration. Viewing themselves as part of the global Muslim community\, they are affected by the over 40\,000 deaths in Gaza\, mostly women and children\, due to the belief that harm to one part of the \"ummah\" affects all. This connection\, often just one degree removed from individuals in Gaza\, complicates their stance in the presidential election.\n\nWe will discuss these issues with Dr. Youssef Chouhoud\, an Assistant Professor of Political Science affiliated with the Reiff Center for Human Rights and Conflict Resolution at Christopher Newport University.

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.

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:123255-21850641@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:20241024T082043 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241024T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241024T100000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:TNE Journal Club DESCRIPTION:The Translational Neural Engineering (TNE) Group is a hybrid weekly neural engineering focused journal club every Thursday at 9:00 AM. TNE journal club aims to enable students\, medical residents\, engineers\, researchers\, and faculty to discuss current neural engineering topics and challenges.

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:107870-21817945@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:20241022T095723 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241024T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241024T160000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:GalleryDAAS Exhibition: \"Hip Hop @ 50\" DESCRIPTION:It's back!

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:84303-21621424@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:20241115T181510 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241024T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241024T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Arbor Glyph DESCRIPTION:Arbor Glyph is an installation centered around a collective painting of trees\, created by Stamps students and activated by a colorful projection repurposing hand-painted elements and bringing them to life.

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.

We present a new system for the control of 2D Rydberg atom arrays embedded in a cryogenic environment. Our high optical access system is compatible with long vacuum lifetime\, high-fidelity atomic manipulation\, and reduction of blackbody-driven Rydberg decay. I present measurements of ground-state and initial Rydberg manipulation in our cold box\, as well as long-lived atoms in a cryopumped vacuum with which we study single-atom imaging of rubidium with high survival\, an important component of high-fidelity atom rearrangement. I discuss plans to harness similar long-lived vacuum conditions for addressing one source of loss and heating in Fermi gases. I also outline our ongoing efforts in controlling external degrees of freedom in an optical tweezer traps in the context of cooling\, light-assisted collisions\, and non-classical motional states.

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).

Using examples from Japan\, this talk examines how and why menstrual management practices are technologized\, as well as the potential impacts of this for everyday consumers.\n \n Maura Stephens-Chu received her Ph.D. and MA in Anthropology from the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa. She specializes in medical and cultural anthropology\, with an emphasis on embodied experiences of menstruation in contemporary Japan. Broadly\, Maura’s multidisciplinary and intersectional research includes theoretical and methodological approaches from anthropology\, Japanese studies\, gender studies\, history\, and science and technology studies. She has conducted extensive ethnographic research in Tokyo\, Japan on young women’s perceptions\, education\, and personal experiences of menstruation and commercial menstrual products. Her historical analysis of Japanese menstrual taboos\, “From Sacred to Secret: Tracing Changes in Views of Menstruation in Japan\,” can be found in the open access journal *Silva Iaponicarum.* Currently\, Maura is researching the formation of both layperson and medical understandings of conditions that fall under the umbrella of menstrual “irregularity\,” including endometriosis\, amenorrhea\, and severe dysmenorrhea. She is also interested in media representations of premenstrual syndrome\, as well as the impact on personal health and privacy from the proliferation of smartphone apps for tracking menstrual cycles.\n \n This lecture is made possible with the generous support of the U.S. Department of Education Title VI grant.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at umcjs@umich.edu.

Now many fear that strong partisan views\, particularly hostility to the opposing party\, are damaging democracy. We address this concern with a nuanced evaluation of when and how partisan animosity matters in today’s highly charged\, dynamic political environment\, drawing on panel data from some of the most tumultuous years in recent American history\, 2019 through 2021. Partisanship powerfully shapes political behaviors\, but its effects are conditional\, not constant. Instead\, it is most powerful when politicians send clear signals and when an issue is unlikely to bring direct personal consequences. In the absence of these conditions\, other factors often dominate decision-making. Hence\, while partisan hostility has degraded US politics—for example\, politicizing previously non-political issues and undermining compromise—it is not in itself an existential threat. American democracy depends on how politicians\, more than ordinary voters\, behave.

As success in this regard would yield powerful bioengineered constructs useful in functional transplantation\, high-throughput drug screening\, and fundamental biology investigation\, research efforts in our lab have centered around developing and implementing tools to spatiotemporally customize living cell function both from the “outside–in” and from the “inside–out”. In this talk\, I will discuss some of our group’s recent successes in reversibly modifying the chemical and physical aspects of synthetic cell culture platforms with user- defined and grayscale control\, regulating cell-biomaterial interactions through user-programmable Boolean logic\, engineering microvascular networks that span nearly all size scales of native human vasculature (including capillaries)\, irreversibly photoassembling bioactive proteins within living cells\, and driving biomolecular condensate formation using de novo-designed proteins. Results will highlight our ability to modulate intricate cellular behavior including stem cell differentiation\, protein secretion\, and cell-cell interactions in 4D.\n\nSpeaker Bio: Dr. Cole A. DeForest is the Weyerhaeuser Endowed Associate Professor in the Departments of Chemical Engineering and Bioengineering\, the Associate Chair and Graduate Program Director of Chemical Engineering\, the Director of Education of the Molecular Engineering &\; Sciences Institute\, as well as a core faculty member of the Institute for Stem Cell &\; Regenerative Medicine at the University of Washington (UW) where he began in 2014.

The aim is to understand how these presences contribute to fostering meaningful cognitive engagement in collaborative VR learning environments. Virtual Reality offers unique opportunities to enhance teaching and learning\, especially in engineering education\, where it can scale learning environments and enrich student experiences. However\, effective learning in VR requires the integration of social presence to optimize engagement and cognitive development. As learning in VR is still an emerging field\, there is a need for more research to understand how to effectively facilitate cognitive presence in these environments.\n\nResearch participants engaged in land-surveying tasks using a desktop VR platform\, following the CoI framework\, and completed questionnaires about their learning experience. Path analysis of two models was conducted to assess the predictive and mediating effects of teaching and social presence on cognitive presence. The findings indicate that both social and teaching presence significantly predict cognitive presence\, with social presence emerging as a stronger predictor and mediator. Nevertheless\, teaching presence also played a meaningful role in shaping cognitive presence in both models. These results have important implications for leveraging VR learning environments to support collaborative and cognitively engaging educational experiences.

The process of acceleration is an intrinsically multi-scale problem\, connecting plasma microphysics at the shock to self-generated instabilities driven by accelerated particles far from the shock. With the development of ab-initio numerical simulations\, many details of the shock acceleration mechanism can now be studied directly. In this talk I will review the progress in kinetic (particle-in-cell\, PIC) simulations of shock structure and particle acceleration in various regimes\, and focus on processes that lead to electron acceleration in non-relativistic shocks\, including field amplification\, electron heating\, and nonlinear regulation of shock injection. The lessons learned from microscopic PIC simulations suggest pathways to larger simulations that use augmented MHD techniques to study shock acceleration on the scales of astrophysical objects. I will discuss such MHD-PIC approaches and applications of current results to morphologies and spectra of nonthermal emission from supernova remnants and galaxy clusters.

Like the figure of the undead returning to another time or place\, revenant concepts reappear in a different form than they originally occupied in the cultural imaginary. Unlike the human revenant\, which tends to evoke feelings of dread\, horror\, or the vertiginous nausea of the uncanny\, the cultural revenant allows for elision\, even erasure. However\, these sites contain traces of a historical/ideological cartography\, one I call revenant genealogy . . . This paper traces the path of Shakespeare’s The Winter’s Tale from playtext/scripted drama to dance as a means of understanding the complex arterial system that revenancies create and traverse. . . Freed from linguistic logic and etymological lineage\, danced Shakespeare offers unique insights into this alternative form of historical genealogy and provides a model for a more capacious form of humanities-based analysis. \n\nProfessor Amy Rodgers (Mount Holyoke) teaches classes on film and performance history and theory\, adaptation studies\, gender and sexuality in film and media\, Shakespeare and performance\, and the history of trauma on stage and screen. She is a co-founder of the Shakespeare and Dance Project and the director of the Bread Loaf School of English’s Global Humanities Seminar at Monterey\, CA. Her research encompasses the fields of audience studies\, adaptation studies\, and interdisciplinary influences across artistic and narrative forms\, such as dance\, music\, literature\, film and media. \n\nHer first book\, A Monster with a Thousand Hands: The Discursive Spectator in Early Modern England was published by the University of Pennsylvania Press in 2018\, and she has published numerous articles on Shakespearean adaptation in film\, television\, dance\, and music. Currently\, she is working on a monograph with dance critic Leigh Witchel on ballet and critical theory entitled Embodying the Signifier: Classical Ballet\, Critical Theory and Performance.

Yılmaz investigates how Ottoman security perceptions and travel regulations were directly linked to transnational security regimes battling against anarchism. The Hamidian government targeted “internal threats” to the regime with security policies that created new categories of suspects benefiting from the concepts of vagrant\, conspirator\, and anarchist. Yılmaz explores how mobility restrictions and the use of passports became critical to targeting groups including Armenians\, Bulgarians\, seasonal and foreign workers\, and revolutionaries. Taking up these new policies on surveillance\, mobility\, and control\, Ottoman Passports offers a timely look at the origins of contemporary immigration debates and the historical development of discrimination\, terrorism\, and counterterrorism.\n \n Bio: İlkay Yılmaz is currently a DFG (German Research Foundation) funded research associate at the department of Modern History at Freie Universität Berlin. She was an Einstein Senior Researcher at the same department. She was a research associate at Leibniz-Zentrum Moderner Orient between 2017-19 with Humboldt Scholarship and between 2014-15 with TUBITAK (The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey) scholarship. She was working as an assistant professor at Istanbul University from 2014 until 2017. Her articles have appeared in Journal of Historical Sociology\, Middle Eastern Studies\, Journal of Ottoman and Turkish Studies\, Photoresearcher-Journal of European Society for History of Photography. Her research interests focus on the history of security\, passport history\, inter-imperial collaboration on policing\, state formation and history of violence in the late Ottoman Empire.\n \n Suggested Pre-Read: Ottoman Passports: Security and Geographic Mobility\, 1876-1908 by Ilkay Yilmaz\n \n Cosponsors:\n Multidisciplinary Workshop for Armenian Studies\, U-M\n UCLA Promise Armenian Institute\n Armenian Studies Program\, University of California\, Berkeley\n Armenian Studies Program\, Fresno State University\n Middle East Studies Department\, Stanford University\n\nRegister here: https://umich.zoom.us/j/96004855164 UID:124873-21853972@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/124873 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:armenian,Armenian Studies,Discussion,Lecture LOCATION:Weiser Hall - 555 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241020T160929 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241024T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241024T170000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Rep Stability/Comm Alg Seminar: HSL Numbers for Local Cohomology of Pointed Semigroup Rings DESCRIPTION:Abstract: The Hartshorne-Speiser-Lyubeznik number (HSL number) is a nilpotency index for modules with a Frobenius action. One important class of such modules is the local cohomology modules of a ring of positive characteristic. The HSL numbers of these local cohomology modules are closely connected to the class of F-nilpotent singularities\, which is of interest in part due to its connection to other F-singularities. In this talk we present an explicit upper bound for the HSL numbers of the local cohomology modules of a positive characteristic pointed semigroup ring.

The reception will be open until 7:00 PM in the Rackham Graduate School Assembly Hall.\nTITLE: A Little Goes a Long Way: Why Things That Are Unseen Are More Important Than Ever\nABSTRACT: Missing data is a mature subfield of statistics due in large part to the defining contributions of Michigan’s own Professor Little. It has also aged very well\, and the demand and need for principled solutions has never been greater. We will contemplate “things that are unseen” in a wide variety of contexts and consider the detailed example of the search for endotypes of sepsis\, a life-threatening medical condition with high mortality worldwide.\nAbout Dr. Herring: Amy H. Herring is Sara & Charles Ayres Distinguished Professor of Statistical Science\, Global Health\, and Biostatistics and Bioinformatics at Duke University. Dr. Herring received her doctorate in biostatistics at Harvard University and came to Duke from UNC-Chapel Hill\, where she was distinguished professor of biostatistics. Her research interests include development of statistical methodology for longitudinal or clustered data\, Bayesian methods\, latent class and latent variable models\, missing data\, complex environmental mixtures\, and applications of statistics in population health and medicine.

Activists from all points of the political spectrum are turning to beloved cultural objects to stake a claim for their differing beliefs in a politically fraught moment.\n\nWhat is at stake in these conflicts? High Stakes Culture is a series that brings humanities perspectives to bear on current debates. Please join us for two events this fall (Oct. 10 & 24) as we ask: how and why does culture matter so much now?\n\nToday:\n\"Thinking Through Election Overload: Patriotism and Country Music: Who Owns What?\" with Mark Clague (Music)\, Dean Hubbs (Women's and Gender Studies\, Music)\, Lydia Kelow-Bennett (Afroamerican and African Studies) and moderator Matthew Countryman (Afroamerican & African Studies\, History).\n\nPlease join us for a conversation about country music\, patriotism\, and political divisions in the U.S. Country music has roots in rural working-class America and has often\, but not always\, been associated with beat-up pick-up trucks and conservative politics. In the last few years there has been a resurgence in the popularity of country music across the demographic and political spectrum. Might this signal new cultural common ground? Is there something to be learned from the past and the present of country music? Please join us for a conversation about music\, patriotism and personal and national identity formation. \n \nWe’ll ask questions like:\nWhat is country music\, today?\nWhy country music now? \nWhat is the cultural significance of Beyoncé’s “Cowboy Carter”? \nDoes the surge in popularity suggest new thinking about patriotism?\nCan country music help to bridge our cultural divides?

She redefines the boundaries of book design with her bold\, experimental approach. Educated in fine art and graphic design at AKI Art Academy\, Boom began her career at the Dutch Government Publishing and Printing Office before founding Irma Boom Office in 1991. With a portfolio of over 500 books\, she seamlessly blends design and editorial work\, challenging traditional conventions in both physical form and printed content. Notable among her projects is the 2136-page SHV Thing Book\, a monumental work published in English and Chinese.\n\nBoom makes use of various fabrication processes in her printed material such as embossing and die cuts. In her commissioned book for Chanel\, Boom printed an entire 300 page book devoid of ink\, using instead embossed text and image to create a semi-invisible narrative of Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel. Scent is another unusual feature Boom has utilized in her book design. Her conceptual book design for The Road Not Taken has 718 pages printed using ink mixed with a base of beef bouillon. Coffee filter paper is another material choice she has used. \n\nBoom’s innovative designs have earned her numerous accolades\, including the prestigious Gutenberg Prize\, making her the youngest ever laureate. Her works are part of permanent collections at institutions such as MoMA in New York\, the Art Institute of Chicago\, and the Centre Pompidou in Paris. Her complete oeuvre and archive are preserved in the Special Collections of the University of Amsterdam\, known as the living Archive. In 2014 Boom received the Johannes Vermeer Award (the Dutch state prize for the arts) from the Minister of Education\, Culture and Science. The jury unanimously awarded Boom for her unparalleled achievements in the field of graphic design. Boom is an honorary Doctor of the Royal College of Art in London for her inexhaustible contribution to the book.\n\nPresented in partnership with Design Core Detroit\, the U-M Library\, and the Ann Arbor District Library. This project was made possible by a grant from the Arts Initiative at the University of Michigan. Series presenting partners: Detroit PBS and PBS Books. Media partner: Michigan Radio.

He died at the age of thirty-two\, and in his lifetime he never had a pop hit. Yet since his death\, J Dilla has become a demigod: revered by jazz musicians and rap icons from Robert Glasper to Kendrick Lamar\; memorialized in symphonies and taught at universities. And at the core of this adulation is innovation: a new kind of musical time-feel that he created on a drum machine\, but one that changed the way “traditional” musicians play.\n\nIn Dilla Time\, Dan Charnas chronicles the life of James DeWitt Yancey\, from his gifted childhood in Detroit to his rise as a Grammy-nominated hip-hop producer\, to the rare blood disease that caused his premature death\; and follows the people who kept him and his ideas alive. He also rewinds the histories of American rhythms: from the birth of soul in Dilla’s own “Motown\,” to funk\, techno\, and disco. Here\, music is a story of Black culture in America and of what happens when human and machine times are synthesized into something new. Dilla Time is a different kind of book about music\, a visual experience with graphics that build those concepts step by step for fans and novices alike\, teaching us to “see” and feel rhythm in a unique and enjoyable way.\n\nDilla’s beats\, startling some people with their seeming “sloppiness\,” were actually the work of a perfectionist almost spiritually devoted to his music. This is the story of the man and his machines\, his family\, friends\, partners\, and celebrity collaborators. Culled from more than 150 interviews about one of the most important and influential musical figures of the past hundred years\, Dilla Time is a book as delightfully detail-oriented and unique as J Dilla’s music itself.\n\nBiography:\nDan Charnas is an American author\, radio host\, and record company executive. He is considered to have played a role in the creation of hip-hop journalism.\n\nA native of New York City\, Charnas graduated with honors from Boston University in 1989 with a bachelor's degree in communications. In 2007\, Charnas earned a master's degree from the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism. His master's thesis was titled Shocked: Birthright Unplugged challenges Birthright Israel in an epic battle for the hearts and minds of American Jews.\n\nAs a radio personality\, Charnas hosted a segment on KPWR in Los Angeles. As a journalist he was a writer for the hip-hop magazine The Source.He became a talent scout for Profile Records and later ran the rap division of American Recordings in a joint venture with Warner Bros. Records.\n\nIn 2010 he wrote the book The Big Payback about the history of the hip-hop business.\n\nIn 2022 his book Dilla Time\, on the life and works of hip-hop producer J Dilla\, was published.\n\nCharnas is an associate professor at the Tisch School of the Arts at New York University and has been a thesis advisor at the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism.-Wikipedia UID:127994-21860024@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/127994 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:African Diaspora,Afroamerican,Detroit,Hip-hop,Music,African American,african and african american studies,african and afroamerican studies LOCATION:Haven Hall - 648G GalleryDAAS CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241024T172043 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241024T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241024T200000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:M-CLIC presents: The \"CLIC-N-CUTZ\" Barbershop Series (10/24/24) DESCRIPTION:Men of Color Leading & Investing in Community (M-CLIC) presents: \"The CLIC-N-CUTZ\" Barbershop Series! Topic: \"First-Gen Men: The Unknown and the Underdogs!\"Featuring Special Guest: Dr. Norris Chase\, Director of First-Generation Commitment\, LSA Undergraduate Education\nJoin us for an engaging discussion focusing on the unique challenges and experiences of first-generation men of color in higher education.

The group recorded a demo before eventually signing with R.E.X. Records. Their debut LP\, The Fatherless & the Widow\, appeared in 1993 and their sophomore effort\, 1995’s This Beautiful Mess won a Dove Award and was followed by the Tickets for a Prayer Wheel EP. \n\nIn 1997\, Sixpence None the Richer released their self-titled album and two years later exploded globally when the track “Kiss Me”\, from that album\, was released as a single. The song has been featured in countless movies and TV shows and catapulted Sixpence None the Richer’s starpower into the mainstream\, earning airplay in more than ten different countries.\n\nAccolades continued as the band’s rendition of the La’s “There She Goes” also became a major hit. In fall 2002\, Sixpence None the Richer returned to form with Divine Discontent. The band’s cover of the Crowded House classic “Don’t Dream It’s Over” pushed Sixpence None the Richer’s name back into the charts in early 2003. Although the group quietly disbanded in 2004\, they remained active as individuals and continued to release music periodically\, including the albums Dawn of Grace and Lost in Transition.\n\nFast forward to 2024 and all-original members (Leigh Nash\, Matt Slocum\, Dale Baker\, and Justin Cary) have reunited and are writing and recording new music and preparing for a world tour. As a taste of the new music\, you can hear “The Tide” released in late 2023 as Leigh Nash + Sixpence None The Richer\, which has already amassed over 2 Million views and streams across platforms. Curb Records is also celebrating the 25th Anniversary of the band’s self-titled (Kiss Me) album by re-releasing it in a collectible vinyl series that also features the new track\, “The Tide”.\n\nSixpence None The Richer has helped shape the musical landscape across generations and are gearing up for an exciting road ahead.\n\nhttps://www.sixpencenonethericher.com/ UID:122586-21849416@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/122586 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Ark,Concert,Music,Mutotix LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241215T120008 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T235959 SUMMARY:Meeting:Check Out the P4P Public Calendar Here DESCRIPTION:bit.ly/p4pumcalendar UID:127131-21858483@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/127131 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION:Online CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241028T120015 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T060000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T235959 SUMMARY:Other:Nickerson DESCRIPTION:regatta UID:127510-21859244@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/127510 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION:Bacow Sailing Pavilion CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241026T180017 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T073000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T235959 SUMMARY:Other:Music City Head Race DESCRIPTION:The team tries not to lose a skeg on the Vandy goalpost.  UID:128148-21860240@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/128148 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION:Nashville, Tennessee CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241016T102255 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T220000 SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:October Movie Night DESCRIPTION:Take a break from the whirlwind of midterms with a movie night at Vicky Barner!

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.

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.

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:124224-21852719@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:20241025T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T170000 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:123255-21850642@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:20241025T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T200000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Gathering DESCRIPTION:Welcome.

Please contact kimjulie@umich.edu with any questions or accommodation needs.\n\nOf her lecture\, Leslie says\, \"In writing characters—and writing ourselves as characters—how can we create figures on the page that are as complex as the people we meet and love and loathe in real life? How can we write every character so that she contains not just one self but many selves? If you think of every character as a guesthouse\, who would all the guests be? Who are all the selves dwelling inside? This craft lecture will explore the construction of character as a dilemma (and thrill!) facing that fiction and nonfiction writers alike: When you write first-person narratives\, how can you construct your own character on the page as something multiple\, complex\, and surprising? How can you make room for as many versions of yourself as possible—as many versions are necessary? How does paying close attention to experience—to any scene\, any relationship\, any memory—not just invite but demand this multiplicity of selfhood\, in fiction and nonfiction alike: that every character be not one way\, but many ways\; that she want not just one thing\, but many things\; that she do something not for one reason\, but for many reasons. How can we imagine every character not just as one version of herself but as many versions of herself\, a crowded room full of many different figures: the ghosts of prior selves\, the fantasies of future selves\, the self in all its various relationships\, a quicksilver presence transforming across roles and time.\"\n\n\nLeslie S. Jamison is a *New York Times* bestselling author whose writing blends personal narrative\, cultural criticism\, and literary reportage. Her two essay collections\, *The Empathy Exams* (2014) and *Make It Scream\, Make It Burn* (2019) explore loneliness\, intimacy\, and the limits of shared feeling. Her critical memoir\, *The Recovering* (2018)\, grapples with the relationships between addiction\, creativity\, and recovery\; and her novel\, *The Gin Closet* (2010)\, explores family estrangement across multiple generations. Her latest book\, the memoir Splinters: Another Kind of Love Story\, explores the intersections between caregiving\, life ruptures\, and the creative impulse.\n\nA regular writer for *The New Yorker* magazine\, Jamison has contributed to many publications including *The New York Times Magazine*\, *Harper’s*\, *The New York Review of Books*\, *Virginia Quarterly Review*\, and *The New York Times Book Review*\, where she was a regular columnist for several years. Jamison has twice been a finalist for the PEN/Diamonstein-Spielvogel Award and a National Magazine Award\; she was the guest editor for *Best American Essays* 2017.

Ensuring the identifiability of latent factors and the loading matrix is essential for the model's estimability and interpretability\, and various identifiability conditions have been employed by practitioners. However\, fundamental statistical inference issues for latent factors and factor loadings under commonly used identifiability conditions remain largely unaddressed. In this work\, we focus on the maximum likelihood estimation for generalized factor models and establish statistical inference properties under popularly used identifiability conditions. The developed theory is further illustrated through numerical simulations and an application to a personality assessment dataset.\n\nhttps://sites.google.com/umich.edu/gongjunxu UID:124541-21853171@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/124541 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:seminar LOCATION:West Hall - 340 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240923T205148 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T143000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Story Lab Fall Retreats DESCRIPTION:ABOUT\nStory Lab develops executive-level presence and communication skills through storytelling workshops and events.

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:84303-21621425@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:20241025T102043 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T103000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T120000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:[Race\, Gender\, and Feminist Philosophy] Oct 25: Simone de Beauvoir’s Analogical Approach DESCRIPTION:Hi all\, \nThanks to those of you who attended yesterday for a great discussion! \nOur next meeting will be in 4 weeks (as there won't be a meeting just before the Fall break) on Oct 25\, at 10:30 am in 2271 Angell.

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).

This workshop\, presented by the Mary A. Rackham Institute (MARI) mental health clinics\, is to help educate adults who suspect they may have ASD. The online workshop also explores when ASD testing is recommended\, what to expect with testing\, and resources for next steps. This is also a workshop for people who have loved ones they suspect may have undiagnosed ASD in adulthood.\n\nThe workshop is lead by a licensed\, clinical mental health professional. Participants can submit questions or topics of concern during registration and during the workshop via anonymous Q & A.\n\nWhile there are numerous sessions to choose from\, you only need to attend one session\, as the same material is presented each time.

Deeply contextualized insights into how ancient peoples perceived their worlds can result. In southern Africa’s most richly painted area – the Maloti-Drakensberg Mountains – spectacular images were being made just as the region experienced dynamic changes owing in part to climate. Responses of local foragers are evident across a range of cultural spheres\, including dramatic subsistence transformations. Here I explore how such changes articulated with ontological shifts in relation to the food quest. As desirable game declined and hunting windows narrowed\, I suggest that Neoglacial (∼3.5–2 kcal BP) foragers sought to manage scheduling and social conflicts through enhanced spiritual negotiation with non-human entities in the landscape. Facilitated by the supernaturally charged nature of their elevated cosmos\, this intensified spiritual labor found material expression\, I argue\, in an elaborate new style of painting. Where possible\, adopting emic perspectives rooted in what I call \"ecological ontology” is fundamental for decoding past hunter-gatherer lifeways.

Had it not been cancelled just two days before it was scheduled to occur on June 25th\, 2024\, it would have been the first visit to the museum by Mirziyoyev since he assumed the presidency in 2016. Rushed preparations initiated a host of changes inside the museum pertaining to its exhibitions. Most critically\, one month prior to the anticipated visit\, the museum closed to the public and all of its displays from the Stone Age to the 16th century were changed. \n\nI will touch on issues ranging from leaking ceilings to breaking objects\, as well as to the broader discussions and arguments that occurred in the museum over what a “modern” museum is supposed to be and what elements of the old exhibitions still fit the demands of current national narratives. In doing so\, I will show the museum’s close relationship to the state\, not only as the provider of financial funds\, but also\, in many ways\, as the museum’s main anticipated audience. With my dissertation focusing on the history of this museum from 1876 until the collapse of the Russian empire in 1917\, in this talk I will present a brief historical overview that will allow me to chart the museum’s navigation from the Tsarist period to the Soviet period\, and to the current moment.

DESCRIPTION:Did U.S. corporations embrace racial justice in reaction to the murder of George Floyd and mass Black Lives Matter (BLM) protests? Drawing on both network and organizational theories we conceptualize this as a problem of organizational decision making. We first document the range of responses by US Fortune 500 companies and the deploy latent class analysis (LCA) to categorize responses. Sixty percent of the Fortune 500 stayed silent and 21% made primarily symbolic responses. Right wing fears of a movement toward “woke” capitalism seem premature. On the other hand\, 19% of the Fortune 500 made substantial commitments of time and money to promote racial justice. We model this variation as a function of the attributes of internal decision makers and external audiences. Controlling for prior pro-social behavior and firm size\, we find that the strongest covariates to making a muscular response to racial justice claims came from firms whose DEI staff were central to the national network of DEI professionals and were led by politically liberal CEOs. Being a consumer brand has a weaker but statistically significant relationship with muscular responses. Having more Black executives in headquarters is associated with symbolic\, but not muscular or silent\, responses to BLM protest. Firms led by conservative CEOs were more likely to stay silent. Who has a seat at the table when corporations respond to cultural pressures matters a great deal. Internal and external audiences seem less important in this instance.

Phase synchronization is affected by spatial arrangement\, and spatial motion is affected by phase synchronization. Swarmalators have recently been realized in robotics labs\, and may also play a role in describing collective behavior of biological organisms. In this work I will describe the effects of time delay in interactions on collective dynamics of a population of swarmalators. Delay resulted in the appearance of new collective states. One such state is a pseudo-crystaline structure - in which swarmalators form a quasi-static cluster\, and another is a boiling state in which swarmalators near the boundary of the cluster perform convective motions. In both cases\, the route to these states takes place through an oscillatory transient in which the whole cluster “breathes”. Remarkably\, just a pair of nonlinear equations (in a system of N swarmalators) describes the behavior of the cluster during this transient. This system also exhibits an intriguing aging phenomenon. I will describe the specific mechanism by which the system ages - which involves gradual increase in the hexatic order parameter\, accompanied by a series of annihilations of coordination number defect pairs. \n\nContact: Evgeniy Khain (Oakland University) UID:121471-21846583@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/121471 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Mathematics LOCATION:East Hall - 1084 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241018T105332 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241025T160000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Arctic Curves of T-system with Slanted Initial Data (combinatorics seminar) DESCRIPTION:We study the T-system of type 𝐴∞\, also known as the octahedron recurrence/equation\, viewed as a 2 + 1-dimensional discrete evolution equation. Generalizing earlier work on arctic curves for the Aztec Diamond obtained from solutions of the octahedron recurrence with “flat\" initial data\, we consider initial data along parallel “slanted\" planes perpendicular to an arbitrary admissible direction (𝑟\, 𝑠\, 𝑡) in Z^3 . The corresponding solutions of the T-system are interpreted as partition functions of dimer models on some suitable “pinecone\" graphs introduced by Bousquet-Melou\, Propp\, and West in 2009. The T-system formulation and some exact solutions in uniform and periodic cases allow us to explore the scaling limit of the corresponding dimer models and to derive exact arctic curves separating the various phases of the system. This approach bypasses the standard general theory of dimers using the Kasteleyn matrix and uses instead the theory of Analytic Combinatorics in Several Variables.

Thus there are at most 3 points on such a curve in ℙⁿ_ℚ. In 1922\, Mordell conjectured that a similar result holds in general: if we take a complete smooth curve C of genus g>2 over a finite extension K of ℚ\, then the set C(K) of K−rational points is finite.\n\nWe will cover Gerd Faltings' proof of Mordell's conjecture\, now known as Faltings' Theorem. In broad strokes\, the K−rational points on the curve C correspond to abelian varieties over K of specified dimension and bad reduction. We discuss how to show only finitely many isomorphism classes of these abelian varieties exist\; this generalizes a known result for global fields of prime characteristic to characteristic zero.

The Dufek Intrusion of Antarctica is one of the largest layered intrusions\, intruded approximately 182 Myr ago during the breakup of Gondwana. It is rivaled in thickness only by the 2.05 Ma Bushveld Complex of South Africa and shows a similar progression in mineral compositions from primitive at the base to more evolved compositions at the uppermost contact with an overlying granophyre layer. This progression in mineral composition suggests that the Dufek magma chamber crystallized from the bottom to the top. In this talk\, I will present new high-precision U-Pb zircon ages throughout the 8+ km thick Dufek Intrusion magma chamber stratigraphy. The results are surprising - zircons from the bottom of the intrusion record systematically younger ages than those from the top. I will argue that zircons from layered mafic intrusions do not provide a record of high temperature crystallization\, but rather the ages reflect the solidification of interstitial melt in the magma chamber from the top down.

He specializes in psycholinguistics\, and his current NSF-funded research focuses on revealing how speakers assemble sentence structures in production in two different languages\, English and Japanese. Before joining UMass\, he was at the Department of Psychology at the University of California\, San Diego\, working with Victor Ferreira and Tamar Gollan. Before that\, he did his Ph. D with Colin Phillips in the Department of Linguistics at the University of Maryland\, College Park.\n\nTitle: Building sentence structures in speaking\nAbstract: We have theories of grammatical knowledge and theories of how people produce sentences. These two theories\, however\, are not well integrated. In this talk\, I will attempt to present an integrated theory of structure building in sentence production and grammatical knowledge. I will discuss our group’s recent research on how speakers formulate various types of sentence structure that played central roles in the development of grammatical theories\, such as relative clauses (e.g.\, the cat that the girl thinks the dog chased)\, wh-questions (e.g.\, what did the girl think the dog chased?)\, raising (e.g.\, the girl seems to like the dog)\, and control (e.g.\, the girl wants to hug the dog). Based on the results from these studies\, I will argue that there is a surprising parallelism between the notion of locality in grammatical theories and planning units in theories of sentence production. I will attempt to outline a theoretical framework that might allow us to integrate various findings from syntax\, sentence production\, and possibly\, sentence comprehension.\n\nThis event will be hybrid held in East Hall 4448 & Zoom.

Cherry\, Ph.D.\nDepartment of Biomedical Engineering\nDepartment of Radiology\nUniversity of California\, Davis\, USA\n\nPositron emission tomography (PET) imaging is an important clinical tool for staging and monitoring treatment response in cancer patients and has a broad range of other diagnostic and research applications. Roughly 10 million diagnostic PET scans are performed worldwide\, annually and the number is growing quite rapidly.\n\nAdvances in radiation detector technology have led to new generations of PET systems that demonstrate a quantum leap in imaging performance\, and in doing so open new opportunities for the application of PET in biomedical research and in the clinic. State-of-the-art total body and brain PET scanners will be reviewed.\n\nCurrent innovations in radiation detector research offer the prospect of future opportunities to further improve the performance of PET scanners\, with a specific focus on time-of-flight performance. Examples include fast timing from dense room-temperature semiconductors and the use of promptCherenkov luminescence as a fast-timing trigger. The first steps towards detectors capable of real-time and reconstruction-free imaging of positron-labeled radiopharmaceuticals will be presented. Such systems would approach the theoretical performance limits for imaging radiotracers and permit novel imaging geometries\, providing an exquisitely sensitive and quantitative imaging tool for biomedical research in human subjects.\n\n\n\nBIO\n\nSimon R. Cherry\, Ph.D. received his B.Sc.(Hons) in Physics with Astronomy from University College London in 1986 and a Ph.D. in Medical Physics from the Institute of Cancer Research\, University of London in 1989. In 1993\, he became a faculty member in the Department of Molecular and Medical Pharmacology at UCLA. Simon joined UC Davis in 2001\, and is currently Distinguished Research Professor in the Departments of Biomedical Engineering and Radiology.\n\nSimon’s research interests center around biomedical imaging. His major accomplishments have been in developing systems for positron emission tomography\, for example as co-leader of the EXPLORER consortium which developed the world’s first total-body PET scanner. He also has contributed to detector technology innovations for PET\, conducted early biomedical studies using Cerenkovluminescence\, and developed the first proof-of-concept hybrid PET/MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) systems. \n\nSimon is an elected fellow of six professional societies and a Member of the National Academy of Engineering and National Academy of Inventors. He has received several international awards including the Society of nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging Cassen Prize in 2022. He served as Editor-in-Chief of the journal Physics in Medicine and Biology from 2011-2020. Simon is the author of more than 300 peer-reviewed journal articles\, review articles and book chapters in the field of biomedical imaging. He is also lead author of the widely-used textbook “Physics in Nuclear Medicine”.

He was born in Halifax\, Nova Scotia\, but has lived most of his life in southern California\, and those geographic poles are quite likely responsible for his unhinged genius. With a cult following that includes fellow musicians\, regular folks and festival goers who stumble onto his performances\, there’s no common denominator to Steve’s fans. Steve toured and recorded with San Diego cult favorites The Rugburns (they still play annual sold-out reunion shows). But it was through his creative partnership with Jewel that he vaulted into the national spotlight\; co-writing her multiplatinum Billboard Hot 100-busting smash\, “You Were Meant For Me\,” and continues to work with her to this day.\n\nOver the years\, Steve has built a fascinating solo catalog. No Depression crowned him\, \"A sardonic provocateur with a lighthearted acoustic-driven wit\, suggesting at times a sunnier\, less psychedelic Todd Snider\, or maybe a less wan\, washed Jackson Brown.” Among other collaborations\, GRAMMY-winning bluegrass phenom Billy Strings tapped him to co-write “Leaders” on 2021’s Renewal and he’s co-written with Molly Tuttle\, Sierra Hull\, Nicki Bluhm\, Oliver Wood and even Mojo Nixon.\n\nSteve’s newest album is Stardust & Satellites\, produced by Oliver Wood and Jano Rix of The Wood Brothers.
