While all of the action in Virginia Woolf’s modernist masterpiece takes place on a single day, as preparations are made for Clarissa Dalloway’s evening party, Woolf’s stream of consciousness writing takes us in the characters’ minds all the way from English drawing rooms to colonial India to the trenches of World War I.

A Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. 
 
As 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.
 
This 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.
 
So 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.

In 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.
 
Pieces 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.  
 
In 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. 
 
By 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. 
 
“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.” 
 
— Toni Morrison

Featuring a wide range of artworks—from historic Yoruba and Kongo figures to contemporary works by African and African American artists, such as Sam Nhlengenthwa, Masimba Hwati, Jon Onye Lockard and Shani Peters—the exhibition directly addresses the complex and difficult histories inherent to African art collections in the Global North, including their entanglements with colonization and global efforts to repatriate African artworks to the continent.
 
Art collections, by their very nature, can not be anything other than subjective. With I Write To You About Africa, we examine the subjective ways UMMA and the University of Michigan as a whole have collected and presented art from and connected to the African diaspora.
 
Drawn from art collections across the U-M campus, a special section of the exhibition highlights how the founding of the Department of Afroamerican and African Studies (DAAS) and the African Studies Center (ASC) impacted U–M’s collecting practices. This section includes an exciting and ongoing project—contemporary African artists, scholars, and curators will be asked to write about their work on postcards, in their first language, and mail them to UMMA where they will be displayed alongside their works. 
 
We Write To You About Africa will be a reinstallation of the Museum’s Robert and Lillian Montalto Bohlen Gallery of African art and the connected Alfred A Taubman Gallery II. It is slated to open in 2021 and will be on view indefinitely.

Lead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost, the Michigan Arts and Culture Council, and the African Studies Center.

The original Broadway production opened at the Music Box Theatre in NYC (designed by the architect of the State Theatre, C. Howard Crane) in December 1931. This concert-style production will shine a spotlight on the Gershwin brothers’ music and feature U-M faculty, performers from U-M’s Musical Theater Program, and a Broadway scale orchestra. Contemporary theater critic Charles Isherwood said, ""the laughter that greets the show today is tinged with surprise at how eerily some of its jokes seem to take precise aim, from decades back, at current affair. A politician dismisses Abraham Lincoln's pronouncement about not being able to fool all of the people all the time by remarking: 'It's different nowadays.

Join us from 5:30–6 pm for a sound tour of the Charles Baird Carillon, Burton Memorial Tower, and Ingalls Mall that features carillon improvisation and an ambient electronic headphone listening experience.

Attendees are invited to use earbuds and smartphones to listen to new electronic music created by Schumann and Tea as they explore Burton Memorial Tower and the surrounding area, all while accompanied by Zhu's improvised carillon performance.

The presentation blends the sound of bells with electronic textures to emphasize the meaningful resonances that emerge between individuals and the space they occupy.

The Resonant Soundscapes performance series is supported by the University of Michigan Arts Initiative and the Ann Arbor District Library. Free and open to the public.

After winning the prestigious 2022 Telluride Bluegrass Band Competition in Colorado, the Michigan-based group followed that with another much-coveted honor when the International Bluegrass Music Association named Full Cord its “Momentum Award Band of the Year.” While mandolinist Brian Oberlin notes the band’s music “is new and fresh to the ears of seasoned bluegrass fans,” the bluegrass traditions in Full Cord have deep roots. 

The group’s members – Oberlin, guitarist Eric Langejans, bassist Todd Kirchner and fiddler Grant Flick – boast decades of musical artistry, with experience in popular performing bands from Michigan to Oregon. And with the recent addition of award-winning, Colorado-based banjoist Ricky Mier, Full Cord is ready to follow in the footsteps of fellow Michigan bluegrass icons Billy Strings and Greensky Bluegrass as yet another star in the making.

Embellished clothing (sorochky), ritual cloths (rushnyky), and household textiles accompany a person from birth until death, punctuating important life events in between.

Ukrainian embroidered clothing is now officially celebrated with an annual Vyshyvanka Day observed throughout the world in May.

While all of the action in Virginia Woolf’s modernist masterpiece takes place on a single day, as preparations are made for Clarissa Dalloway’s evening party, Woolf’s stream of consciousness writing takes us in the characters’ minds all the way from English drawing rooms to colonial India to the trenches of World War I.

His artwork has been exhibited throughout the country.

Throughout 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.",https://events.umich.edu/event/124670,"North Campus Research Complex Building 18","Rotunda Gallery","North Campus Research Complex Building 18",,"Art

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.

The ESDM group is a naturalistic treatment that represents a fusion between behavioral treatment methods and developmental theory. Treatment goals will focus on building strong social communication skills in young children with ASD/Developmental Delays and reducing problematic behaviors. The parent training group is designed to teach parents these strategies to increase the number of intervention hours that young children receive.

Our inaugural session will feature Dr. Antonio Cuyler, a distinguished Professor of Music in Entrepreneurship & Leadership at the University of Michigan's School of Music, Theatre & Dance (SMTD) and a Faculty Associate in the African Studies Center.
Dr. Cuyler's research spans arts entrepreneurship, leadership, creative justice, cultural policy, and experiential learning, with a strong focus on advocating for creative justice for marginalized communities. He has made significant contributions through his writings on diversity and inclusion in the arts, including the notable work ""Access, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in Cultural Organizations."" Additionally, he founded Cuyler Consulting, LLC, to assist cultural organizations in enhancing access, diversity, equity, and inclusion. As a first-generation college student, Dr. Cuyler has also held prominent faculty roles at institutions like Florida State University, where he became the first Black man to earn promotion and tenure in arts administration.
Join us for this engaging event on Monday, November 4, at the NCID office located at 530 E. Liberty Street. 
Lunch will be served starting at 12:30 p.m., followed by a Q&A session with Dr. Cuyler from 1:00-2:00 p.m., facilitated by Dr. Alford Young, Jr., ARC Faculty Director. 
This session offers a unique opportunity for members of the Anti-Racism Collaborative and those dedicated to anti-racism scholarship to hear about Dr. Cuyler's upcoming manuscript, Achieving Creative Justice in the U.

Nagayama Hall, Professor Emeritus, University of Oregon Department of Psychology","Lecture / Discussion","The mental health needs of people of color are largely invisible because they underutilize mental health services and are not the focus of research. These mental health utilization disparities have persisted for at least six decades. Neither evidence-based treatments nor culturally-adapted treatments adequately address the individual needs of people of color. People of color may not use mental health services because services are not: (a) personally relevant; or (b) accessible. Our neuroscience data suggest that pragmatic, problem-solving approaches are the most personally relevant for Asian Americans, the least likely ethnic group to use mental health services. In this talk, I discuss the development of the Mind Boba app to make psychotherapy more personally relevant and accessible to Asian Americans.

About the speaker: Gordon Nagayama Hall is an Emeritus Professor of Psychology at the University of Oregon. Dr. Hall received his Ph.D. in clinical psychology from Fuller Theological Seminary. He started his career as a psychologist at Western State Hospital in Washington state. Dr. Hall later was a Professor of Psychology at Kent State University and Penn State University. He served as President of the American Psychological Association (APA) Society for the Psychological Study of Ethnic Minority Issues (Division 45) and as President of the Asian American Psychological Association. He was Editor of Cultural Diversity and Ethnic Minority Psychology. His textbook Multicultural Psychology is in its 4th Edition. Dr. Hall received the Lifetime Achievement Award from APA Division 45 and an APA Presidential Citation for his extraordinary leadership in advancing multicultural psychology. His research interests are in culture and mental health with a particular interest in Asian Americans. He currently has NIMH funding to develop the Mind Boba problem-solving therapy app for Asian Americans. Dr. Hall serves on the Board of Directors of the DisOrient Asian American Film Festival of Oregon.",https://events.umich.edu/event/128121,"East Hall",4448,"East Hall",,,"Department of Psychology"

Diversity can Yield Dividends: Harnessing Cultural Psychological Insights to Foster Social, Health, and Intergroup Benefits Tied to Anti-racism Efforts

The mere presence of anti-racism efforts has the powerful potential to mitigate social inequalities linked to historic and contemporary racism. However, the presence and promise of anti-racism efforts are threatened by (1) policies and practices that are performative and culturally detached from the lived realities of marginalized social groups (e.g., racial/ethnic minorities) and (2) zero-sum claims that portray initiatives aimed at reducing systemic racism as benefitting marginalized social groups at the expense of more dominant social groups. Harnessing cultural psychological insights, this talk explicitly addresses such threats. It provides empirical evidence that anti-racism efforts when driven by actionable change and imbued with meaningful cultural inclusion can yield dividends that are non-zero-sum— related to positive outcomes that are experienced among marginalized groups without costs to dominant groups. Across studies that leverage diverse methods, anti-racism is examined as behaviors, attitudes, and policies (e.g., Black Lives Matter marches, diversity curriculum practices). The talk highlights associations between anti-racism efforts and consequential life outcomes including social connectedness and polarization in social networks, physical and mental well-being, as well as intergenerational (infant) health and mortality. Holistically, the talk presents findings that demonstrate the potential for societal thriving as positive outcomes are observed across social groups (e.g., among marginalized and dominant groups). It centers marginalized groups and underscores the importance of intergroup approaches for intervention strategies that are optimally positioned to realize more equitable outcomes. Theory and applied implications for minimizing and combating backlash to anti-racism efforts (e.g., book bans, anti-diversity state policies) are discussed.

The 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.

The Social Psychology of Systemic Racism
What 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.

Group Dynamics Seminar Series
The 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.

When dispersion compensates for the large gradients induced by this initial data, wave-breaking is often resolved by a dispersive shock wave (DSW). An active area of research is the investigation of quantitative features of DSWs in continuum models arising in physical applied mathematics. This talk leverages modern techniques to investigate solutions of the Riemann problem for a semi-discrete conservation law. The semi-discrete model is obtained by applying a first-order centered difference scheme to the spatial derivative of the Hopf equation. Solutions to the Riemann problem reveal a surprisingly elaborate set of solutions to this example system. In addition to discrete analogs of well-known dispersive hydrodynamic solutions—rarefaction waves (RWs) and DSWs—additional unsteady solution families and finite-time blow-up are observed and characterized. We will also compare the dynamics of the Riemann problem to an integrable discretization of the spatial derivative.

The two Brazilian artists propose that modernity, insofar a systemic perpetuation of violence and domination, is fundamental to understand decolonial theories that are built upon the idea of “desocultamento” or unhiding of diverse epistemologies, grammars, forms of social, economic, political and family organization, and spirituality.

“o modo superior da filosofia” is part of the “ATeliê voadOR Research Visibilization” project sponsored by the Secretaria de Cultura (Culture Ministry) of the State of Bahia through the Edital de Mobilidade Cultural and CAPES. The purpose of this project is to promote intercultural dialogue, cooperation, co-production, exchange, and collaboration between artists from Bahia, Brazil, and artists in other countries, in addition to promoting the insertion of Bahia in the international circuit of art and culture.

   Djalma Thürler is a theater director, dramaturge, and interdisciplinary researcher with ATeliê voadOR Teatro in Salvador, Bahia. He holds a PhD from Universidade Federal Fluminense (2006) and is a professor at the Federal University of Bahia (UFBA), where he researches queer language, decolonial aesthetics, and monstrous theatricalities with the NuCuS research group.
   
   Duda Woyda, also affiliated with ATeliê voadOR Teatro, is an actor and researcher. He holds a master’s and PhD in culture and society from UFBA and completed a postdoctoral fellowship in 2023.

Laura Cortese might best be described as a sonic magpie: a curious and resourceful adventurer traversing great distances, collecting melodies and rhythms that glitter like jewels in the sun. Driven by the gravitational pull of human connection, her tendency towards exploration and collaboration have led her into countless niches, each providing its own unique feather with which to decorate her distinct and ever-evolving sound.

Starting as a young child picking up the fiddle for the first time, Cortese has used these strings to tie herself to others, forging connections across age, genre, and identity. After a Californian childhood filled with Celtic music camps, Cortese went on to attend Berklee College of Music in Boston.

Her early career explorations didn’t end with performance though. Cortese also co-founded the Boston Celtic Music Festival, and later they Miles of Music Camp. The goal of this camp is not only to introduce these diverse musicians to new genres and musical catalogs, but to build community and spark creativity. She has toured across the globe, acting as an ambassador of American music on behalf of the US State Department by performing and teaching in India, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Bangladesh, Estonia, Greece, Ukraine, and Montenegro. Now, she holds space and builds community for musicians in Belgium as the co-founder of the monthly Bright Lights Session in Ghent.

All of these threads have joined together, culminating in her work leading the musicians’ collective known as Laura Cortese & the Dance Cards. Here, she showcases all of her varied experience and expertise–as a master fiddler, an instructor, a leader, and a musical collaborator–using it to craft a new sound from whole cloth: a nearly symphonic hybrid of countless traditions and influences, full of layered vocal harmonies and rich interplays of virtuosic string instrumentation.",https://events.umich.edu/event/124557,,,"ARK Reserved","$20 - $30","Ark

Threads of Tradition: The Art of Ukrainian Vyshyvanka",,Exhibition,"The act of embroidering and weaving designs onto cloth is deeply rooted in Ukrainian traditions. Embellished clothing (sorochky), ritual cloths (rushnyky), and household textiles accompany a person from birth until death, punctuating important life events in between. A variety of embroidery patterns are used throughout Ukraine; some stitches are universally known, while others are region-specific. Ukrainian embroidered clothing is now officially celebrated with an annual Vyshyvanka Day observed throughout the world in May.

A Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. 
 
As 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.
 
This 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.
 
So 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.

In 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.
 
Pieces 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.  
 
In 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. 
 
By 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. 
 
“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.” 
 
— Toni Morrison

Featuring a wide range of artworks—from historic Yoruba and Kongo figures to contemporary works by African and African American artists, such as Sam Nhlengenthwa, Masimba Hwati, Jon Onye Lockard and Shani Peters—the exhibition directly addresses the complex and difficult histories inherent to African art collections in the Global North, including their entanglements with colonization and global efforts to repatriate African artworks to the continent.
 
Art collections, by their very nature, can not be anything other than subjective. With I Write To You About Africa, we examine the subjective ways UMMA and the University of Michigan as a whole have collected and presented art from and connected to the African diaspora.
 
Drawn from art collections across the U-M campus, a special section of the exhibition highlights how the founding of the Department of Afroamerican and African Studies (DAAS) and the African Studies Center (ASC) impacted U–M’s collecting practices. This section includes an exciting and ongoing project—contemporary African artists, scholars, and curators will be asked to write about their work on postcards, in their first language, and mail them to UMMA where they will be displayed alongside their works. 
 
We Write To You About Africa will be a reinstallation of the Museum’s Robert and Lillian Montalto Bohlen Gallery of African art and the connected Alfred A Taubman Gallery II. It is slated to open in 2021 and will be on view indefinitely.

Lead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost, the Michigan Arts and Culture Council, and the African Studies Center.

The slow and costly adjustment of real wages within a match after a burst of inflation incentivizes workers to engage in job-to-job transitions. Such dynamics after a surge in inflation lead to a rise in aggregate vacancies relative to unemployment, associating a seemingly tight labor market with lower average real wages. Calibrating with pre-2020 data, we show the model can simultaneously match the trends in worker flows and wage changes during the 2021-2024 period. Using historical data, we further show that prior periods of high inflation were also associated with an increase in vacancies and an upward shift in the Beveridge curve. Finally, we show that other “hot labor market” theories that can cause an increase in the aggregate vacancy-to-unemployment rate have implications that are inconsistent with the worker flows and wage dynamics observed during the recent inflationary period. Collectively, our calibrated model implies that the recent inflation in the United States, all else equal, reduced the welfare of workers through real wage declines and other costly actions providing a model-driven reason why workers report they dislike inflation.",https://events.umich.edu/event/124302,"Lorch Hall",201,"Lorch Hall",,"Economics

-Talk title: Toxic Relationships: The Genomic and Phenotypic Outcomes of Molecular Warfare between Predators and Prey
Summary: A huge swathe of biodiversity interactions antagonistically via toxins. For example, some 15 percent of animal species use complex venoms for offense or defense. In turn, toxin resistance has evolved across the tree of life as well, making toxin-mediated interactions important subjects in the study of predator-prey coevolution. I will discuss ongoing work that unites comparative genome biology, population genomics, proteomics, and biochemical assays to determine the molecular targets of snake venoms and the broader evolutionary forces shaping venom variation among populations and species. I will next describe the observable phenotypic outcomes of coevolution between snakes and their venom resistant prey across landscapes. What emerges is a picture of how these traits may be shaped by a combination of biotic and abiotic forces to maintain biological diversity.

-Talk Title: Applying Wafer-Scale Evolutionary Simulations to Investigate Hypermutator Dynamics in Large Asexual Populations
Summary: Hypermutator alleles, which elevate mutation rates, introduce a fundamental trade-off in asexual organisms by accelerating adaptation but also increasing mutation load. In scenarios with rich opportunities for adaptive mutations, large population sizes can promote fixation of hypermutator strains via increased mutation supply. However, factors that might suppress hypermutator traits in large asexual populations are less understood. In this talk, I’ll discuss ongoing agent-based modeling experiments investigating how scenarios with few beneficial mutations available (i.e., limited adaptive potential) affect mutator dynamics across a continuum of population sizes and spatial structures. We will also survey technical aspects of the work, which harnesses the 850,000-processor Cerebras Wafer-Scale Engine to achieve simulation of population sizes ranging up to 1.5 billion with a 111,091× speedup over CPU execution. These experiments reflect an initial step in investigating the potential for next-generation computing hardware to substantially scale up scope tractable within in silico models. We will review further opportunities to develop foundational infrastructure that enables application of decentralized, many-processor simulations across diverse research agendas in evolutionary biology.

The US’s tariffs against China created a wedge between mutually beneficial trades between China's producers and US consumers. Moving production to nearby Vietnam allows firms to jump the tariff wall. We show that locations within Vietnam closer to China gain more—a border effect—in output and new FDI, particularly for industries producing goods with strong demand from the US and larger S301 tariff increase for China exports. We also analyze the environmental impact of Vietnam's surging economic growth and find that Vietnam is not repeating China's economic development story that features severe pollution. Large multinational companies' FDI and the government's commitment to clean energy development safeguard Vietnam's blue skies.

A major challenge with high-speed propulsion is the limited time scales available to mix
and combust the flow within the residence time. When exploring practical propulsion systems, the requirement to utilize liquid fuels adds a further challenge,
as the liquid needs to breakup, evaporate, mix, and burn within the same residence time. One promising method to deal with this challenge is to utilize
detonations or shock waves to accelerate the breakup, evaporation, and combustion. The details of a shock or detonation-driven breakup of liquid droplets is
receiving significant attention. However, a physical understanding and modeling of such multiphase detonations are hampered by a lack of models for the
evolution and breakup of a single droplet after a shock or detonation. Experimental studies of this problem are available but can only measure macroscopic
properties and cannot resolve the quantitative details at small scales. High-fidelity interface-resolving numerical studies are needed to understand the
break-up process better and the similarities and differences between detonation and shock-driven breakup.

The goals of this thesis are: 1) to gain insights into the stages of breakup and secondary droplet distribution throughout the breakup, 2) to leverage the stages
of breakup and the droplet distribution to understand the impact of evaporation and how that may impact liquid fueled detonations. The breakup was found
to follow five stages. Two of the key stages are the droplet flattening due to the pressure difference, while instabilities form on the droplet surface. That is
followed by the rapid recurrent piercing of the droplet by these surface instabilities, resulting in the sudden catastrophic shattering of the droplet. The fraction
of mass contained in secondary droplets was found to be minimal until this recurrent piercing. During the recurrent piercing, the secondary droplets followed
a log-normal distribution, with a few larger droplets not well represented by the log-normal distribution. However, these large droplets were short-lived and
rapidly decayed to the log-normal distribution. This allows for the breakup to be approximated as an induction time until the breakup begins, followed by a
breakup where droplets are shed at the final log-normal distribution. For detonation-driven breakup, a similar process occurs, and the breakup time scale is
significantly faster than the evaporation time scale for the primary droplet, resulting in minimal evaporation prior to breakup. Thus, the evaporation is
controlled by the resulting change in the effective area due to the breakup and secondary droplet distribution. This allows for an extension of the mass
stripping model to account for the induction time prior to breakup beginning and accounting for the secondary droplet distribution. Further work exploring
liquid-fueled detonations is needed as the current work predicts the breakup and resulting distribution will control the evaporation time scales, but the mixing
and ignition delay times scales have not yet been explored. This work represents the first interface-resolving study of detonation-driven breakup that captures
heat transfer, phase change, and the secondary droplets; it is also the first study to capture the secondary droplet distribution during a shock-driven breakup.",https://events.umich.edu/event/128558,"Off Campus Location",https://umich.zoom.us/j/99003024439,Virtual,,#michiganengineering,"Aerospace Engineering"

Using circularly polarized light, artificial magnetic fields can be created in the photon-dressed Floquet-Bloch states that form. This mechanism, when applied to 3D Dirac and Weyl systems, is predicted to lead to photon-dressed movement of Weyl nodes which should be detectable in the transport sector. Using ultrafast transport methodology, we find direct evidence of transport from Floquet-Bloch states in the type-II Weyl semimetal T_d - MoTe_2 . In our measurements, we observed injection currents, and a helicity-dependent anomalous Hall effect whose scaling with laser field strongly deviate from the perturbative expectation of nonlinear optics. We show using Floquet theory that this discovery corresponds to the formation of a magnetic Floquet-Weyl semimetal state. Numerical ab initio simulations support this interpretation, indicating that the light-induced motion of the Weyl nodes contributes significantly to the measured transport signals. Moreover, from the amplitude of the light-induced anomalous Hall effect, we deduce that these photon-dressed states induce a large effective non-Maxwellian field (>30 T) during the drive.

In addition to modifying the topological transport properties during the field, we also discovered that mid-infrared light can efficiently excite coherent interlayer shear phonons which we can capture directly in the transport sector. We measure coherence between the phonon oscillation and the nonlinear Hall effect, which we interpret as an oscillation of the Weyl node positions in the Brillouin zone. This work is ongoing, but I will discuss both these results and the future of optical control over topology in quantum materials, including paths to persistent, dissipation free light-induced edge modes.",https://events.umich.edu/event/124942,"West Hall",340,"West Hall",,"Physics

It focuses on the Hamidian era – the reign of Sultan Abdülhamid II (1876-1909) – and how empire-wide bureaucratic networks collaborated to label Armenians as undesirable subjects and prevent migrants’ return to the empire. It argues that the meticulous efforts on the part of the Ottoman state to document the identities of emigrating Armenians through a photographic archive represent a significant example of how the emergent technologies of state surveillance contributed to an exclusive conception of imperial subjecthood. Photography and archiving became engines of state-building and ethnonational ideology. Building on my dissertation research, this talk also introduces my second project, which explores the new demarcations of imperial belonging, and the changing anxieties and vocabularies for managing imperial security during the Balkan Wars and World War I. I investigate how enemy aliens, and people from the lost territories in the Balkans were photographed and expatriated. I will discuss the terms deportation and abandonment and demonstrate that emptying the Ottoman landscape of undesirable people was not only a political and bureaucratic project, but also a visual and archival one.

Lopez lost her sight at an early age and is mostly non-verbal. This exhibition of tactile assemblage works and gestural coiled pots were created by the artist through touch and texture, colored by memory. The works are sensory, physical, immediate, reaffirming, and deeply expressive. Viewers to this exhibition are invited to touch the work. 

During her residency, the artist and her support team, which includes her mother and translator, will engage directly with students in the exhibition space, offering a transformative experience based on human expression and connection through art. Because Ericka feels most comfortable when she is working, she plans to make artwork with students as part of the class engagements with the exhibition.

About Ericka Lopez
Born 1987 in Mexico, Ericka Lopez has been making art at Tierra del Sol Studios since 2019. Working across ceramic, fiber, and mixed media constructions, Lopez’s practice is centralized around her exploration of touch. Lopez was born with limited vision and is now completely blind. Lopez trained in massage therapy and previously volunteered at a soup kitchen when an encounter with Tierra’s ceramics studio shifted her trajectory toward fine art. Her masterful command of clay hand-building techniques enables Lopez to create intricate, dynamic, and organically structured coil vessels. Lopez’s works are informed by her finite recollection of color; she requests specific shades and combinations of glazes that generate spontaneous, distinctive surfaces when fired. This intuitive approach continues in her fiber wall works and mixed media sculptures. Utilizing punch rug embroidery, Lopez creates abstract fields of yarn and found objects, often repeatedly punching through the same area to yield densely layered sections. Lopez has learned to identify the color of her materials via scent and feel, a process that is difficult to put into words. Her mixed media sculptures are created almost entirely by touch, consisting of threads, buttons, beads, fabric scraps, and found objects instinctively stitched together using simple sewing techniques. Lopez hopes her works can be experienced through an inquiry of touch.

Ericka Lopez has exhibited her artwork at Laband Gallery and Tierra del Sol Gallery in Los Angeles, CA. Lopez’s debut solo exhibition, “Continuous Touch,” was curated by jill moniz for Tierra del Sol Gallery in the Spring of 2023. She has had works acquired by notable private collections such as that of Beth DeWoody and by the Kleefeld Contemporary Art Museum at UC Long Beach.",https://events.umich.edu/event/123257,"Thayer Academic Building","Institute for the Humanities GAllery","Thayer Academic Building",,"Art

A Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. 
 
As 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.
 
This 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.
 
So 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.

Kelly Church &amp; Cherish Parrish: In Our Words, An Intergenerational Dialogue is a major exhibition that centers the subjectivities of two contemporary Indigenous artists whose practices have sustained and bolstered the relevance of the age-old Anishinaabe practice of black ash basket-making in the 21st century. The exhibition highlights the significance of community-based conversations between mother and daughter, and their ongoing conversations with elders (ancestors), young folx, and future generations as vital aspects of their methodology. These conversations often take place during basket gatherings - where community members come together and share stories and teachings that can encompass Anishinaabe creation stories, as well as those of survivance and resilience, to inform the materiality and liveness of their work. The curatorial and interpretive framework of this exhibition contends that the deeply situated and temporal works by Church (Stamps, BFA 1998) and Parrish (LSA, BA 2020) are repositories for Anishinaabe ways of knowing, thinking, and making that contribute to the complexity of American art and its histories. The expansive and bold practices of Church and Parrish affirm the sovereignty of Anishinaabe lifeways and the importance of including Indigenous narratives that have systematically been left out. Thus, the thematic survey of their work will explore the under-examined themes that inform their work such as Native women’s labor as carriers of culture and knowledge-keepers, the legacy of boarding schools and ancestors who walked on, the treaties in Michigan and the long-overlooked legacy of Anishinaabe intellectual life and their relevance today. Just like the practice of weaving and interlacing distinct strips of black ash to create one whole, Church and Parrish will address the diverse and interconnected themes with approximately 30-35 works, including 15-17 new works. Together, the exhibition offers an incisive critique of the colonial, racist paradigm of systemic erasure and assimilation that continues to this day, with the ongoing crises of missing and murdered Indigenous women, culture wars, and climate change that threaten Indigenous ways of living, sustenance, and making.

In 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.
 
Pieces 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.  
 
In 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. 
 
By 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. 
 
“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.” 
 
— Toni Morrison

Featuring a wide range of artworks—from historic Yoruba and Kongo figures to contemporary works by African and African American artists, such as Sam Nhlengenthwa, Masimba Hwati, Jon Onye Lockard and Shani Peters—the exhibition directly addresses the complex and difficult histories inherent to African art collections in the Global North, including their entanglements with colonization and global efforts to repatriate African artworks to the continent.
 
Art collections, by their very nature, can not be anything other than subjective. With I Write To You About Africa, we examine the subjective ways UMMA and the University of Michigan as a whole have collected and presented art from and connected to the African diaspora.
 
Drawn from art collections across the U-M campus, a special section of the exhibition highlights how the founding of the Department of Afroamerican and African Studies (DAAS) and the African Studies Center (ASC) impacted U–M’s collecting practices. This section includes an exciting and ongoing project—contemporary African artists, scholars, and curators will be asked to write about their work on postcards, in their first language, and mail them to UMMA where they will be displayed alongside their works. 
 
We Write To You About Africa will be a reinstallation of the Museum’s Robert and Lillian Montalto Bohlen Gallery of African art and the connected Alfred A Taubman Gallery II. It is slated to open in 2021 and will be on view indefinitely.

Lead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost, the Michigan Arts and Culture Council, and the African Studies Center.

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.
Artist’s bio:
Michelle 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. 

Recently, 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).

Most famously, it exhibits the universality of CFT spectra at high energy, but there are numerous other applications, including in the context of holography. In recent years, a combination of exact results in supersymmetric CFTs and developments in AdS/CFT have sparked renewed interest in possible generalizations of modularity to CFTs in dimensions greater than two. We briefly survey these developments for both supersymmetric and non-supersymmetric CFTs and note that a satisfactory geometric understanding is lacking. We aim to improve on this situation in the context of the 4d N=1 superconformal index, using the free chiral multiplet as our main example. We argue that a factorization of the BPS Hilbert space allows a KK reduction on the base of the Hopf fibration to a two-dimensional torus, comprised of the Hopf fiber and the temporal circle. This provides a 2d description, in terms of two infinite KK towers, of the 4d BPS Hilbert space. We argue, and prove, that this implies the unconventional modular property of the superconformal index, referred to before as “modular factorization”. We comment on the generalized notion of modularity, on generalizations to more interesting 4d SCFTs and other dimensions. If time permits, we discuss an SL(2,Z) family of 3d limits of the 4d index, realizing lens space partition functions of the dimensionally reduced theory.",https://events.umich.edu/event/127875,"Randall Laboratory",3481,"Randall Laboratory",,"brown bag

First, I develop a simple comparative static test to distinguish standard forms of imperfect competition from collusion. I show that, for very general labor supply and production structures, the spillover effects of firm-specific demand shocks predict opposite employment effects at unshocked competitors who operate independently (↓ employment), versus those who were previously colluding but whose collusion dismantles due to the shock (↑ employment). Next, I argue that large employers in the garment industry organize into industry associations to pay workers exactly the state- and industry-specific minimum wage, using it as a focal point for coordination. Members of industry associations are substantially more likely to bunch from above at the local minimum wage than non-members, and to track its policy-induced rise without reducing employment. I show that small export demand shocks evoke the standard imperfectly competitive response among non-members (higher wages and employment), but elicit no response from members (they forego export opportunities to stick to the minimum wage). By contrast, when a large demand shock leads affected members to deviate from the minimum wage, unaffected nonmembers respond as in oligopsony (↑ wage, ↓ employment), but unaffected members respond as if their collusion dismantles (↑ wage, ↑ employment). Imposing specific models of labor supply and production, the “full-IO” approach statistically rejects the oligopsony model in favor of the breakdown of collusion. I conclude that collusion spurs substantial losses even compared to a world wherein each firm exercises its own, but not their collective, market power, reducing the average worker’s wage by 9.6% and employment by 17%.",https://events.umich.edu/event/125900,"Lorch Hall",201,"Lorch Hall",,"Economics

In this talk, we introduce an intermediate obstruction to the strong and weak obstructions of Gille, Neher, and Ruether which exists only in the characteristic 2 setting.

Though it is long appreciated that the enormous neural diversity arises in spatiotemporally patterned manners, the exact underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear even in the relatively trackable Drosophila brain. We map cell lineages and then track changes in gene expressions and genome states along actual cell lineages to see how the genome encodes brain connectome.

Biosketch:
My background is rooted in both medicine and research, leading me to employ genetic model systems to understand human brain development. I aspire to reverse-engineer the brain by tracking development from neural stem cells to diverse neuron types. My lab has developed and applied sophisticated genetic mosaic tools to understand how the Drosophila melanogaster brain develops on the level of individual cells. Briefly, we have created lineage-restricted drivers by immortalizing the expression patterns of early patterning genes. These drivers enable us to map single neurons based on lineage origin and neuronal birth order. Indeed, we have successfully mapped the developmental sequence of entire neuronal lineages in the adult fly brain, providing unparalleled resolution and critical insight into how a limited number of progenitor cells can generate diverse
neurons. We have further successfully investigated the molecular mechanisms underlying this neuronal diversification and probed the developmental plasticity of these neurons in the adult brain. We have recently extended our approach from fly to vertebrates (including mouse and zebrafish). Nonetheless, critical gaps remain, even in our study of fly brain development. To completely understand how the genome encodes diverse neuron types, we need to track not just cell lineages, but also the dynamic developmental genes which confer cells with their specific fates. As part of this effort, we have built new, powerful, CRISPR-based genetic tools to simultaneously track birth order and acutely manipulate genes of interest. Our findings will be applied to ultimately tailor neural/brain development in order to treat neurological patients.",https://events.umich.edu/event/128561,"Palmer Commons","Forum Hall","Palmer Commons",,"Applications

Consider, for example, the system
(|qα − p| < c · T −1
and  0<q≤T ,
where α and c are fixed real numbers, and (p,q) ∈ Z^2. In Diophantine approximation one is interested in obtaining asymptotics for the number of solutions to the system (1) as T → +∞. If NT denotes the number of such solutions (p, q), then, NT = NT (α) can naturally be seen as a random variable on the interval (0, 1). It turns out that NT may be written out as the sum of ”essentially i.i.d.” random variables and thus, satisfies, in some form, the law of large numbers and the central limit theorem. This phenomenon is in fact more general and may be interpreted dynamically, by considering the limiting behavior of certain unimodular lattices in R^2 under the action of the geodesic flow. For systems depending on several parameters αi, a crucial difference arises when considering actions of one-parameter diagonal flows vs. higher-rank flows. In this talk, I will consider the more general higher-rank setup and show that a form of the central limit theorem can be obtained. I will also briefly discuss some of the Diophantine consequences of this fact. This is part of a joint work with Michael Bj ̈orklund and Alexander Gorodnik.",https://events.umich.edu/event/128658,"East Hall",3866,"East Hall",,Mathematics,"RTG Seminar on Geometry, Dynamics and Topology - Department of Mathematics

The Scottsboro Trials stand among the most renowned miscarriages of justice in the history of American jurisprudence. Beginning in 1931 with a false accusation of rape against nine Black teenagers, the case went on to invigorate a nascent Civil Rights movement, earn the international support of the Communist Party, and establish itself as a watchword among various strands of the American Left. It also inspired reaction from the contemporary world of arts and letters, most famously by poets Langston Hughes and Richard Wright and novelist Harper Lee, who adapted its events in To Kill a Mockingbird.

The international, politically oriented Yiddish intelligentsia of the 1930s was no less galvanized, producing a body of creative responses that passionately took up the themes of the trial, juxtaposing its American injustices with diverse images, tropes and language imbued with their own distinct histories of oppression. These writings are the basis of Wild Burning Rage and Song: Replies to Scottsboro.

This world premiere performance features Professor Amelia Glaser, author of Songs in Dark Times: Yiddish Poetry of Struggle from Scottsboro to Palestine (Harvard UP), composer/vocalists Heather Klein and Anthony Russell, and composer/pianist Uri Schreter.
 
Amelia Glaser is professor of literature at UC San Diego, where she is the chair in Judaic Studies. A scholar and translator of Ukrainian, Russian, and Yiddish literature, she is the author of Jews and Ukrainians in Russia’s Literary Borderlands (Northwestern UP, 2012) and Songs in Dark Times: Yiddish Poetry of Struggle from Scottsboro to Palestine (Harvard UP, 2020), the editor of Stories of Khmelnytsky: Literary Legacies of the 1648 Ukrainian Cossack Uprising (Stanford UP, 2015), and, with Steven Lee, Comintern Aesthetics (University of Toronto Press, 2020); and the translator of Proletpen: America’s Rebel-Yiddish Poets (University of Wisconsin Press, 2005) and, with Yuliya Ilchuk, A Crash Course in Molotov Cocktails: Poems by Halyna Kruk (Arrowsmith Press, 2023).

Anthony Russell is a vocalist, composer, and arranger specializing in music in the Yiddish language. His work in Ashkenazi Jewish musical forms led to an exploration of his own ethnic roots through the research, arrangement, and performance of a hundred years of African American music, resulting in the album Convergence (2018), a collaboration with klezmer consort Veretski Pass exploring the sounds and themes of one hundred years of African American and Ashkenazi Jewish music. Inspired by an ethnographic trip to Belarus and Poland as a Wallis Annenberg Helix Fellow (2016–17), Anthony formed a duo, Tsvey Brider (Two Brothers), with accordionist and pianist Dmitri Gaskin for the composition and performance of original music set to Yiddish poetry. Their recent release, Kosmopolitn, features their settings of twentieth-century Yiddish modernist poetry for voice and string ensemble. A past Hadar Rising Song Fellow (2021–22) and a present Mandel Institute Cultural Leadership Fellow (2023–25), Anthony has expanded his work into cultural activism through collaboration with the Workers Circle and as an essayist in a number of publications and sites including The Forward, Tablet Magazine, JTA, PROTOCOLS, Full Stop Magazine, Ayin Press, and Jewish Currents.

Heather Klein follows her passion for Yiddish song and bringing stories to life. She has most recently been seen singing in the film “Burning off the Page” (San Francisco Jewish Film Festival), on PBS.com with the documentary “Harbor from the Holocaust,” working with the Folksbiene Theatre in New York City, and composing and acting for the Yiddish Theatre Ensemble in Berkeley. Heather has also worked with Sundance (MA), Music Theatre Group (NYC), YIVO (NYC), Ashkenaz Festival (Toronto), and the Yiddish Book Center (MA) as well as in Hungary and Israel, and extensively in the Bay Area and Canada. Klein has premiered many Yiddish roles and produced and recorded four albums. Her most recent albums were for her show “Shanghai Angel""—which Klein wrote, produced, and composed—about her grandmother’s journey from Nazi Europe to China and then to California, as well as “Rooted Lullaby,” an album with original trilingual lullabies. Klein will be recreating her show “Shanghai Angel” in 2024 at Angel Island, the former immigration station near San Francisco where her grandmother was detained in the 1940s. Heather works as the cantorial soloist at Temple Sinai in Las Vegas and produces the Yiddish Las Vegas festival.

Uri Schreter is an interdisciplinary musicologist, composer, keyboardist, and filmmaker. He was born in Tel Aviv and studied at Tel Aviv University, where he earned a Bachelor’s degree in composition and musicology and a Master’s degree in history. He is currently pursuing a PhD in musicology at Harvard University, where he is researching postwar Jewish music and politics. Outside of academia, Uri has collaborated on music, theater, and film with numerous artists in Jewish culture and beyond, including Mike Burstyn, Shane Baker, and Judy Bressler.",https://events.umich.edu/event/125120,"Off Campus Location","The Ark","316 S Main St, Ann Arbor, MI 48104",,"Activism

ABOUT TELEGRAPH QUARTET
Erin Chin & Joseph Maile, violins
Pei-Ling Lin, viola
Jeremiah Shaw, cello

The 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.

The 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.

In 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.

The education of nuclear engineers hasn't sufficiently addressed sociotechnical aspects, exacerbating these challenges. Despite this, interdisciplinary research efforts are underway, supported by funding agencies. 

This symposium aims to assess progress, identify shared objectives, and discuss methodologies and institutional support for sociotechnical research in nuclear energy. 

Authors are encouraged to reflect on these issues, fostering collaborative field-building activities.",https://events.umich.edu/event/121548,"Palmer Commons","Fourth Floor","Palmer Commons",,"Diversity Equity and Inclusion

The Epoch of Reionization (EoR; z ≥ 6) marked the transition of our universe from a neutral to an ionized state, driven by early galaxies and possibly active galactic nuclei (AGN). However, the sources of ionizing Lyman Continuum (LyC) radiation and the mechanisms enabling its escape from largely neutral galaxies remain uncertain. Local (z = 0−0.3) analogs to the EoR galaxies with LyC detections, such as Green Peas (GPs), can illuminate both ionizing sources and LyC escape mechanisms likely at play in the early universe. This thesis establishes radiation-driven feedback, rather than the traditional supernova (SN) feedback, as a major mechanism for promoting LyC escape in GPs and GP-like galaxies. With case studies of resolved iconic starbursts Mrk 71 and Haro 11, as well as an analysis of galaxies from the Low-redshift Lyman Continuum Survey (LzLCS) and literature GPs, I show that this process may dominate in young, high-ionization starbursts with low metallicities. In Haro 11, new HST/COS observations pinpoint the LyC sources. The results underscore the importance of intrinsic LyC luminosity from young stars, rather than simply optical depth, in promoting LyC escape. My findings separately demonstrate the likely importance of anisotropic LyC escape through a dense, cloudy medium. In Mrk 71, I use spatially resolved, Gemini-N/GMOS-IFU observations to show that its broad, 3000 km/s  emission-line wings originate from a radiation-driven superwind composed of tiny, dense, neutral gas clumps with a low filling factor, and accelerated by LyC and/or Lyα photons, thus likely implying LyC escape. I therefore propose that similar broad, smooth, power-law wings may be an indicator of LyC escape via such superwinds. I then use Magellan/MIKE, VLT/X-shooter, and WHT/ISIS spectroscopic observations of a sample of 26 LzLCS galaxies, to find that those with higher ionization parameters and lower metallicities have [O III]λ5007 emission-line wings with power-law shapes. The power-law wing parameters correlate with tracers of radiation-dominated conditions, such as O32 and EW(Hβ), and are consistent with the wind kinematics and picket-fence radiative transfer expected under these conditions. Gaussian line wings, in contrast, are associated with higher metallicity, lower ionization, and older ages, and likely trace conventional SN-driven feedback. The above findings thus imply an emerging paradigm of LyC escape defined by two different feedback modes: radiation-dominated and SN-dominated.",https://events.umich.edu/event/128321,"West Hall",411,"West Hall",,"aerospace engineering

Lopez lost her sight at an early age and is mostly non-verbal. This exhibition of tactile assemblage works and gestural coiled pots were created by the artist through touch and texture, colored by memory. The works are sensory, physical, immediate, reaffirming, and deeply expressive. Viewers to this exhibition are invited to touch the work. 

During her residency, the artist and her support team, which includes her mother and translator, will engage directly with students in the exhibition space, offering a transformative experience based on human expression and connection through art. Because Ericka feels most comfortable when she is working, she plans to make artwork with students as part of the class engagements with the exhibition.

About Ericka Lopez
Born 1987 in Mexico, Ericka Lopez has been making art at Tierra del Sol Studios since 2019. Working across ceramic, fiber, and mixed media constructions, Lopez’s practice is centralized around her exploration of touch. Lopez was born with limited vision and is now completely blind. Lopez trained in massage therapy and previously volunteered at a soup kitchen when an encounter with Tierra’s ceramics studio shifted her trajectory toward fine art. Her masterful command of clay hand-building techniques enables Lopez to create intricate, dynamic, and organically structured coil vessels. Lopez’s works are informed by her finite recollection of color; she requests specific shades and combinations of glazes that generate spontaneous, distinctive surfaces when fired. This intuitive approach continues in her fiber wall works and mixed media sculptures. Utilizing punch rug embroidery, Lopez creates abstract fields of yarn and found objects, often repeatedly punching through the same area to yield densely layered sections. Lopez has learned to identify the color of her materials via scent and feel, a process that is difficult to put into words. Her mixed media sculptures are created almost entirely by touch, consisting of threads, buttons, beads, fabric scraps, and found objects instinctively stitched together using simple sewing techniques. Lopez hopes her works can be experienced through an inquiry of touch.

Ericka Lopez has exhibited her artwork at Laband Gallery and Tierra del Sol Gallery in Los Angeles, CA. Lopez’s debut solo exhibition, “Continuous Touch,” was curated by jill moniz for Tierra del Sol Gallery in the Spring of 2023. She has had works acquired by notable private collections such as that of Beth DeWoody and by the Kleefeld Contemporary Art Museum at UC Long Beach.",https://events.umich.edu/event/123257,"Thayer Academic Building","Institute for the Humanities Gallery","Thayer Academic Building",,"Art

In 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.
 
Pieces 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.  
 
In 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. 
 
By 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. 
 
“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.” 
 
— Toni Morrison

Featuring a wide range of artworks—from historic Yoruba and Kongo figures to contemporary works by African and African American artists, such as Sam Nhlengenthwa, Masimba Hwati, Jon Onye Lockard and Shani Peters—the exhibition directly addresses the complex and difficult histories inherent to African art collections in the Global North, including their entanglements with colonization and global efforts to repatriate African artworks to the continent.
 
Art collections, by their very nature, can not be anything other than subjective. With I Write To You About Africa, we examine the subjective ways UMMA and the University of Michigan as a whole have collected and presented art from and connected to the African diaspora.
 
Drawn from art collections across the U-M campus, a special section of the exhibition highlights how the founding of the Department of Afroamerican and African Studies (DAAS) and the African Studies Center (ASC) impacted U–M’s collecting practices. This section includes an exciting and ongoing project—contemporary African artists, scholars, and curators will be asked to write about their work on postcards, in their first language, and mail them to UMMA where they will be displayed alongside their works. 
 
We Write To You About Africa will be a reinstallation of the Museum’s Robert and Lillian Montalto Bohlen Gallery of African art and the connected Alfred A Taubman Gallery II. It is slated to open in 2021 and will be on view indefinitely.

Kelly Church &amp; Cherish Parrish: In Our Words, An Intergenerational Dialogue is a major exhibition that centers the subjectivities of two contemporary Indigenous artists whose practices have sustained and bolstered the relevance of the age-old Anishinaabe practice of black ash basket-making in the 21st century. The exhibition highlights the significance of community-based conversations between mother and daughter, and their ongoing conversations with elders (ancestors), young folx, and future generations as vital aspects of their methodology. These conversations often take place during basket gatherings - where community members come together and share stories and teachings that can encompass Anishinaabe creation stories, as well as those of survivance and resilience, to inform the materiality and liveness of their work. The curatorial and interpretive framework of this exhibition contends that the deeply situated and temporal works by Church (Stamps, BFA 1998) and Parrish (LSA, BA 2020) are repositories for Anishinaabe ways of knowing, thinking, and making that contribute to the complexity of American art and its histories. The expansive and bold practices of Church and Parrish affirm the sovereignty of Anishinaabe lifeways and the importance of including Indigenous narratives that have systematically been left out. Thus, the thematic survey of their work will explore the under-examined themes that inform their work such as Native women’s labor as carriers of culture and knowledge-keepers, the legacy of boarding schools and ancestors who walked on, the treaties in Michigan and the long-overlooked legacy of Anishinaabe intellectual life and their relevance today. Just like the practice of weaving and interlacing distinct strips of black ash to create one whole, Church and Parrish will address the diverse and interconnected themes with approximately 30-35 works, including 15-17 new works. Together, the exhibition offers an incisive critique of the colonial, racist paradigm of systemic erasure and assimilation that continues to this day, with the ongoing crises of missing and murdered Indigenous women, culture wars, and climate change that threaten Indigenous ways of living, sustenance, and making.

At the heart of scalable quantum technologies are interconnected physical systems composed of precisely tailored materials, often operating at their classical and quantum limits. In this talk, I will present our advances in developing and applying theoretical and computational approaches to tackle the unique challenges of predicting and designing quantum phenomena in solid-state systems, connecting atomic-scale information with macroscopic functionality. I will showcase select examples from our group, including the ab initio design of solid-state quantum defects through the establishment of the “Quantum Defects Genome,” leveraging high-throughput materials genomics with state-of-the-art computational techniques. Next, I will discuss our proposal of  how emergent phenomena in quantum materials—such as topology, multiferroicity, and superconductivity—are promising platforms for novel quantum sensing schemes aimed at detecting elusive dark matter. I will demonstrate how designer Hamiltonian approaches offer new concepts and enhanced sensitivities for low-mass dark matter detection. Lastly, I will present recent results from our group on the extension of this approach to experimental probes sensitive to ‘hidden’ order parameters, such as the newly proposed ‘altermagnets’, and discuss how these probes provide new quantitative insights into underlying fundamental physics through correlated spectroscopies and microscopies.

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.
Artist’s bio:
Michelle 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. 

Recently, 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).

Stepping outside the Shadow of the Welfare Theorems (joint with Mark Aguiar and Dmitry Mukhin)","Oleg Itskhoki, University of California, Los Angeles","Workshop / Seminar","We revisit whether global output is (Pareto) efficiently distributed across countries over time. The efficient allocation of goods across regions requires that the relative marginal utilities of consumption across countries comoves with the relative costs of the country-specific consumption bundles. Standard approaches to evaluating this property exploit the Welfare Theorems and equate the observed real exchange rate with the social relative costs of consumption. Given the large literature documenting the disconnect between exchange rates, relative prices faced by consumers in a given market, and relative quantities consumed, we develop a methodology that measures relative costs that is robust to this disconnect. We find that relative consumption growth across regions is significantly more correleted with our computed shadow prices than it is with observed real exchange rates, suggesting an allocation closer to efficient risk sharing. Moreover, we provide a decentralization that matches observed prices and quantities, enabling us to rationalize the better implied risk sharing with the failure of the standard correlations. The decentralization involves a combination of segmented foreign exchange markets and pricing-to-market behavior in goods markets. The model implies that consumption allocations are insulated from excess fluctuations in the ex- change rate via the optimal equilibrium pricing behavior of exporters.",https://events.umich.edu/event/127877,"Lorch Hall",201,"Lorch Hall",,"Economics

   Japanese documentary films have a unique style. Minamata disease, which spread from Minamata City on the west coast of Kyushu Island along with the economic growth of the 1950–60s, has given rise to many literary, theatrical and photographic works that sound the alarm for humanity, and in the field of cinema, Noriaki Tsuchimoto (1928–2008) continued to shoot the *Minamata* series over a period of 40 years. I would like to consider the relationship between the Minamata disease and art, including with the American film *Minamata*, in which Johnny Depp plays photographer Eugene Smith.
      
   Kenji Ishizaka is the 2024-25 Toyota Visiting Professor, and is joining CJS from the Japan Institute of the Moving Image (JIMI), the first film university in Japan. He teaches about Asian film history, documentary film history, film distribution theory, and screening planning workshops, and serves as a provost and the director of the International Exchange Center at JIMI.
   
   Born in 1960 in Tokyo, Kenji earned his MA degree from the graduate school of Waseda University. From 1990 to 2007, he was the Film Coordinator at the Japan Foundation and has organized more than seventy film events on Asian and Arab cinema. He has been in charge of the Asian film section of the Tokyo International Film Festival as a senior programmer since 2007, and spends his days watching many films made in a wide range of regions from East Asia to the Middle East. He frequently travels to Asian countries for research and to communicate with people involved in the film industry, and has served on the jury of international film festivals in Hawaii, Delhi, Busan, Bangkok, and other places.

Despite advancements in applying natural language processing (NLP) techniques to radiology reports, current efforts have primarily focused on chest radiology reports. Moreover, the lack of a publicly available abdominal X-ray dataset has limited extensive research into NEC diagnosis using abdominal X-rays (AXR). To address these challenges, we will utilize pediatric abdominal X-ray reports from a large medical institution and introduce AXpert. AXpert comes in two versions: one based solely on instruction fine-tuned large language models (LLMs), and another alternative version is a BERT-based model distilled from these fine-tuned models for improved inference and fine-tuning efficiency. AXpert can perform two tasks: (1) detecting the presence of NEC in children and (2) classifying the subtype of NEC into pneumatosis, portal venous gas, and free air. Comprehensive experimentation shows that AXpert outperforms baseline BERT models across all evaluation metrics. Furthermore, various factors affecting the performance of LLMs are examined, and the best combinations are identified based on the results. Additionally, the knowledge-distilled BERT model achieves performance on par with the LLM labelers and surpasses the performance of expert-annotated trained baseline BERT models. Our findings highlight AXpert's potential to reduce human labeling costs while maintaining high labeling accuracy. Moreover, AXpert provides precise image labeling, thereby advancing the automation of NEC diagnosis using AXR.

You may view your placements via: Wolverine Access > Student Business > Academic Records > View Placement Exam Results.Important information about the test* Placements are valid for only one year. If you fail to register in the course that you are placed in, you will be required to retake the test.* Retaking the placement test is only permitted after the placement results expire.* The test assesses students’ proficiency in Modern Standard Arabic (MSA), NOT colloquial Arabic.  * If you speak an Arabic dialect but you do not know how to read or write or have little knowledge, feel free to register in Arabic 101.* Students who know some Arabic because they came from an Arabic-speaking household or have studied Arabic before, must take the Arabic proficiency test in order to determine their placement.* Students who have taken Arabic at other institutions and wish to continue their Arabic study at UM must take the placement test to determine their level. Credits for Arabic study undertaken at another institution prior to joining UM or in a summer program while attending UM, transfer in as generic departmental credits and students must take the placement test to determine credit equivalencies to UM courses.* If you place in or beyond the 401 level, you will have satisfied the LSA language requirement. * Students are encouraged to take a placement test as early as possible in their studies in order to determine the level they should enroll in, or if they test out of the language requirement. This is extremely important to avoid delays in graduation and complications with placement.* Arabic 101, 201, 401, 501 are offered ONLY in the Fall semester, and Arabic 102, 202, 402, 504, 511 are ONLY offered in the Winter semester.* Arabic 103 (the equivalent of Arabic 101 & 102, combined) may be offered in the Spring/Summer sessions.* Arabic 203 (the equivalent of Arabic 201 & 202, combined) is offered in the Spring/Summer sessions.If you have questions regarding the placement test, please contact the program director at, mesarabicprogram@umich.edu.",https://events.umich.edu/event/128573,,,"1500 North Quad 105 S.

This 7 minute film examines “what does it mean to be biracial?” Vietnamese-American filmmaker Shal Ngo writes, “I’ve struggled with this question my entire life. I partnered up with Tribeca Film Festival and 23andMe to try and find the answer with my short film: Hapa. It’s a very personal story that digs deep into my family roots, DNA, and identity. I filmed across the USA and Vietnam, and combined documentary, stop-motion animation, and stream-of-conscious narration to put it all together.”

Industrial heterogeneous catalysts ubiquitously contain trace amounts (ppm) of “promoters” species, which can substantially promote activity, selectivity, or stability. Recently, it has been observed that the addition of very small amounts (<1:100 atom %) transition metal atoms (e.g. Pt, Pd, Ni) to coinage metal (Au, Ag and Cu) surfaces can drastically promote selectivity in hydrogenation and dehydrogenation catalysis. The unique catalytic behavior of these ultra-dilute alloys derives from bifunctional reaction pathways where molecular activation at the dispersed promoter sites results in intermediate spillover onto the coinage metal host, enabling distinct reactivities. Here, I will discuss the design of ultra-dilute alloy catalysts with a focus on selective ethylene epoxidation on Ag-based alloys and sintering resistance of Cu-based alloys during accelerated aging. I will highlight how a combination of theory, surface science, in-situ spectroscopy and high surface area catalyst measurements can be used to design and understand the function of dilute promoters. These findings demonstrate that dilute alloy catalysts have potential to improve catalyst performance beyond hydrogenation/dehydrogenation chemistries and that they offer potential for simultaneous promotion of rate/selectivity and stability.

Structural racism in the United States is the normalization and legitimization of an array of dynamics—historical, cultural, institutional, and interpersonal—that routinely advantage whites while producing cumulative and chronic adverse outcomes for people of color. It is a system of hierarchy and inequity, primarily characterized by white supremacy—the preferential treatment, privilege, and power for white people at the expense of other racially oppressed people. It is also important to recognize that racism is a global issue and continues to be perpetuated in societies across the globe and it manifests in many different ways at various levels. This anti-racism workshop in an abroad context aims to offer an entryway for students to engage in observing how racism plays out in different societies outside the United States, utilizing examples, particularly media representation, that may reflect deeper messages, and what it means to be anti-racist for American students who have been abroad or may be visiting, studying, or traveling abroad.
This workshop will engage participants in the following activities:

Better understanding of the phrase “anti-racism”
Learning about race and its nuances
Recognizing how culture can shape the development of racism and power structures
Seeing how media around the world uphold oppression in different ways

Abstract: Whenever one runs randomized experiments in a service system, stochastic congestion can arise from temporarily limited supply and/or demand.

Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) offer the potential to generate large numbers of functional somatic cells for therapies. One approach to achieve this goal is to use transcription factors (TFs) to differentiate hPSCs into desired cell lineages. Using scRNA-seq, we investigated TFs expressed in endothelial progenitors (EPs) derived from hPSCs and identified upregulated expression of SOXF factors SOX7, SOX17, and SOX18 in the EP population. To test whether overexpression of these factors increases differentiation efficiency, we established inducible hPSC lines for each SOXF factor and found only SOX17 overexpression robustly increased the percentage of cells expressing CD34 and vascular endothelial cadherin (VEC). Intriguingly, we discovered SOX17 overexpression alone was sufficient to generate CD34+VEC+CD31− cells, and, when combined with FGF2 treatment, more than 90% of CD34+VEC+CD31+ EP was produced. These cells are capable of further differentiating into functional endothelial cells. To better assist directed differentiation, precise insertion of fluorescent proteins into lineage-specific genes will be needed. However, this approach presents challenges due to low knockin efficiency and difficulties in isolating targeted cells. To overcome these hurdles, we present the modified mRNA (ModRNA)-based Activation for Gene Insertion and Knockin (MAGIK) method. MAGIK operates in two steps: first, it uses a Cas9-2A-p53DD modRNA with a mini-donor plasmid (without a drug selection cassette) to significantly enhance efficiency. Second, a deactivated Cas9 activator modRNA and a 'dead' guide RNA are used to temporarily activate the targeted gene, allowing for live cell sorting of targeted cells. Consequently, MAGIK eliminates the need for drug selection cassettes or labor-intensive single-cell colony screening, expediting precise gene editing. We showed MAGIK can be utilized to insert fluorescent proteins into various genes, including SOX17, NKX6.1, NKX2.5, and PDX1, across multiple hPSC lines. This underscores its robust performance and offers a promising solution for achieving knockin in hPSCs within a significantly shortened time frame.

Tidal disruption events (TDEs) provide an exciting opportunity to study supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in quiescent galaxies and the stellar populations and dynamics in galactic nuclei. They test the limits of black hole accretion by regularly producing super-Eddington feeding rates, and their emission encodes information about the properties of the disrupted star and SMBH. While these transients have long been theoretically predicted, it is only in the past ~decade that they have been discovered observationally, and the number of these observations is about to rise dramatically with the onset of LSST. I’ll discuss how we can combine theoretical models with the rising tide of observations to investigate the SMBH mass function and accretion physics, look for SMBH binaries, and study the properties of stars on size scales we cannot observe outside our own galactic neighborhood.",https://events.umich.edu/event/128458,"West Hall",411,"West Hall",,"astronomy

About this seminar: Few issues have been as intriguing and exciting to scientists as the origin and evolution of Neotropical Biodiversity. Yet relatively little is still known about the evolutionary relationships among Neotropical organisms and the factors that have shaped the high species diversity found in this region. Integrative approaches, including information from systematics, ecology, evolution, geology, and climatology are crucial to better understand the drivers of species diversity. To improve our understanding of the history of Neotropical biodiversity, I combine detailed studies focused on key Neotropical lineages with broad-scale studies that look at biotas as a whole.",https://events.umich.edu/event/128626,"Biological Sciences Building",1060,"Biological Sciences Building",,"department of ecology and evolutionary biology

GCCs offer a unique opportunity to take what students learn on campus at U-M and apply it abroad in a fun and exciting hands-on class taught by a U-M professor. GCCs include two components: An on-campus course during the winter semester and a 3-week, off-campus field experience that takes place during the following spring (May-June).

""With London and the seaside cities of Brighton and London as our setting, students will develop a sense of the distinct convergences of cultures and global identities that make up this region of England. The traditions of pleine aire painting along with the numerous approaches to street photography and the observational documentary are starting points for us to consider as we make our way through the streets of the city. Each neighborhood along our journey offers up different stories and histories and each provide opportunities for the students to engage with and reflect upon their own sense of place and identity within that place. What does arriving, as an outside observer, bring to the vocabulary of cities? Are we flaneurs (Baudelaire’s notion that we can be casual observers of modern, urban life)? Or are we more engaged with the city as a setting for our own individual narratives or diaristic entries? How has the history of England’s Colonial reach shaped the modern city of London? In addition to our planned outings, students will be encouraged to do their own photographic walkabouts during their stay in London.""",https://events.umich.edu/event/127401,"Off Campus Location",,Virtual,,"Abroad

These standards are already being rolled out in federal policy, and have the potential to make a major impact on US society, not least of all higher education. However, these recommendations flew in the face of expert and community stakeholders and historical precedent by excluding transnational, indigenous groups like Armenians, many Arab groups coded as “Black,” and other Muslim groups on the region’s geographic and epistemic peripheries. This talk will therefore examine the “Middle East” as a recurring site of ambiguity and anxiety within foreign policy, academic disciplines, and domestic legislation that congeal around diaspora communities. Taking a deconstructive and intersectional approach to race science, discriminatory US policies, and community voices, the talk will interrogate the historical record while affirming the necessity -- and pitfalls -- of a MENA category.
   
   Bio: Thomas Simsarian Dolan has just begun a position as Lead Historian at the Armenian General Benevolent Union, founded in Cairo in 1906 and still the largest Armenian philanthropy. A faculty affiliate in Middle Eastern and South Asian Studies at Emory and the Center for Arts, Migration, and Entrepreneurship at the University of Florida, his research focuses on MENA migrations across the Atlantic World, and especially the racialization of these migrants in academia, popular culture and the law. His work has been supported by a range of national research organizations, including the Bentley Historical Library and Center for Arab American Philanthropy, and he previously completed a year as a Fulbright US Teaching Scholar History at American University in Cairo, after earning degrees from George Washington University, NYU, and Yale.

Recent progress has been made in understanding the behavior of planar dimer models with periodic edge weights, particularly models on the subgraph of the square lattice known as the Aztec diamond graph. In this talk, I will discuss the effect of a temperature parameter in the doubly periodic Aztec diamond dimer model in the zero temperature limit. In this limit, the Aztec diamond undergoes crystallization: The limit shape converges to a piecewise linear function we call the tropical limit shape, and the local fluctuations are governed by the Gibbs measures with the slope dictated by the tropical limit shape for low enough temperature. 

The tropical limit shape and the tropical arctic curve (consisting of ridges of the crystal) are described in terms of a tropical curve and a tropical action function on that curve, which are the tropical analogs of the spectral curve and the action function that describe the finite-temperature models. The tropical curve is explicit in terms of the edge weights, and the tropical action function is a solution to Kirchhoff's problem on the tropical curve.

While the imperial operations of Victor, Columbia, Edison, Odeon, and other businesses enhanced transnational networks for the global dissemination of music commodities, recorded sound also gained cultural currency because of its increasing relevance in all kinds of social spaces. 

By digging into a variety of scenarios of music consumption and into the contents of sound recordings themselves, this talk examines the haphazard circulation of talking machines and records in Latin America and the Caribbean between 1877 and 1925, showing how, ultimately, the very tenets of everyday life became increasingly and inevitably entangled with those of recorded sound.

Presented by the Department of Musicology; free and open to the public.

Engaging a wide variety of visual cultures, Maravilla’s work is autobiographical, referencing his unaccompanied, undocumented migration to the United States due to the Salvadoran Civil War. Across all media, Maravilla explores how the systemic abuse of immigrants physically manifests in the body, reflecting on his own battle with cancer. 
Maravilla is also a teacher and mutual-aid organizer; his work extends beyond his sculptural practice to consider forms of community-based healing and regeneration. He frequently activates his artistic objects through performances and sound baths – a meditative experience where participants are “bathed” in sound frequencies meant to encourage therapeutic and restorative healing. 
Maravilla’s work is in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art, New York, NY; the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York, NY; the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, NY; Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, Madrid, Spain; the Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami, FL; the Henie Onstad Kunstsenter, Oslo, Norway; and the Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn, NY, among others. He has received numerous awards and fellowships including a Guggenheim Foundation Fellowship, 2019; Soros Fellowship: Art Migration and Public Space, 2019; MAP Fund Grant, 2019; Franklin Furnace Fund, 2018; Virginia Museum of Fine Arts Fellowship, 2018; Art Matters Fellowship, 2017; Creative Capital Grant, 2016; Joan Mitchell Emerging Artist Grant, 2016; and The Robert Mapplethorpe Foundation Award 2003. He has presented solo exhibitions at the Museum of Modern Art, New York, NY; Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn, NY; Museum of Contemporary Art, Denver, CO; Henie Onstad Kunstsenter, Oslo, Norway; Socrates Sculpture Park, New York, NY; P·P·O·W, New York, NY; and the Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami, FL, among others. 
Maravilla's work is currently included in the 12th Göteborg International Biennial for Contemporary Art: forms of the surrounding futures, Gothenburg, Sweden and the 35th Bienal De São Paulo: choreographies of the impossible, São Paulo, Brazil.

Esra Akcan is Professor and Director of Graduate Studies in the Department of Architecture at Cornell University and board member at the Institute for Comparative Modernities. Akcan's research on modern and contemporary architecture and urbanism foregrounds the intertwined histories of Europe, West Asia, and Northeast Africa and offers new ways to understand architecture's role in global, social, and environmental justice. She has written extensively on critical and postcolonial theory, racism, immigration, reparations and transitional justice, architectural photography, translation, neoliberalism, and global history. Her book Architecture in Translation: Germany, Turkey and the Modern House (Duke University Press, 2012) offers a new way to understand the global movement of architecture that extends the notion of translation beyond language to visual fields. It advocates a commitment to a new culture of translatability from below and in multiple directions for cosmopolitan ethics and global justice.""",https://events.umich.edu/event/124946,"Michigan Union","Pendleton Room","Michigan Union",,"Alamanya

Ericka Lopez is a visual artist born in Mexico and living in Los Angeles. Lopez lost her sight at an early age and is mostly non-verbal. This exhibition of tactile assemblage works and gestural coiled pots are created by the artist through touch and texture, colored by memory. The works are sensory, physical, immediate, reaffirming, and deeply expressive. Viewers to this exhibition are invited to touch the work. 

During her residency, the artist and her support team, which includes her mother and translator, will engage directly with students in the exhibition space, offering a transformative experience based on human expression and connection through art.  Because Ericka feels most comfortable when she is working, she plans to make artwork with students as part of the class engagements with the exhibition.

About Ericka Lopez
Born 1987 in Mexico, Ericka Lopez has been making art at Tierra del Sol Studios since 2019. Working across ceramic, fiber, and mixed media constructions, Lopez’s practice is centralized around her exploration of touch. Lopez was born with limited vision and is now completely blind. Lopez trained in massage therapy and previously volunteered at a soup kitchen when an encounter with Tierra’s ceramics studio shifted her trajectory toward fine art. Her masterful command of clay hand-building techniques enables Lopez to create intricate, dynamic, and organically structured coil vessels. Lopez’s works are informed by her finite recollection of color; she requests specific shades and combinations of glazes that generate spontaneous, distinctive surfaces when fired. This intuitive approach continues in her fiber wall works and mixed media sculptures. Utilizing punch rug embroidery, Lopez creates abstract fields of yarn and found objects, often repeatedly punching through the same area to yield densely layered sections. Lopez has learned to identify the color of her materials via scent and feel, a process that is difficult to put into words. Her mixed media sculptures are created almost entirely by touch, consisting of threads, buttons, beads, fabric scraps, and found objects instinctively stitched together using simple sewing techniques. Lopez hopes her works can be experienced through an inquiry of touch.

Ericka Lopez has exhibited her artwork at Laband Gallery and Tierra del Sol Gallery in Los Angeles, CA. Lopez’s debut solo exhibition, “Continuous Touch,” was curated by jill moniz for Tierra del Sol Gallery in the Spring of 2023. She has had works acquired by notable private collections such as that of Beth DeWoody and by the Kleefeld Contemporary Art Museum at UC Long Beach.",https://events.umich.edu/event/123258,"Thayer Academic Building","Institute for the Humanities Gallery and Lobby","Thayer Academic Building",,"Art

I partnered up with Tribeca Film Festival and 23andMe to try and find the answer with my short film: Hapa. It’s a very personal story that digs deep into my family roots, DNA, and identity.

Nuclear energy faces complex sociotechnical challenges, combining social and technical dimensions. These include difficulties in technology implementation, cost overruns, regulatory constraints, public mistrust, community engagement failures, nuclear waste management, security concerns, and equity issues.

These challenges have been addressed separately by different disciplines, hindered by disciplinary divides and normative differences. Historically, engineers favor technology, while humanities and social sciences take critical stances, impeding collaboration.

The education of nuclear engineers hasn't sufficiently addressed sociotechnical aspects, exacerbating these challenges. Despite this, interdisciplinary research efforts are underway, supported by funding agencies. 

This symposium aims to assess progress, identify shared objectives, and discuss methodologies and institutional support for sociotechnical research in nuclear energy.

While South Korea had long been the major source of emigrants fleeing poverty and political turmoil in their homeland, it has emerged since the early 1990s as one of the most popular migrant destinations in East Asia. The ethnic Korean population outside the Korean peninsula now includes not only the descendants of colonial-era migrants to Japan and Manchuria, but also the post-1960s emigrants to North America, a large size of adoptees in North America and Northwestern Europe, and educational migrants and Christian missionaries across the globe. Migrants in South Korea are equally diverse. They include: labor migrants in agricultural, manufacturing, and service sectors; marriage migrants constituting the fast-growing “multicultural families”; asylum-seekers from across the world; and international students and English teachers recruited by educational institutions. North Korean and ethnic Korean migrants from China also constitute a significant portion of migrants in South Korea. This two-day conference will explore the politics of migration, diaspora, and race in transnational Korea—the topic that has moved Korean Studies in a transnational direction in the past decade or so. The approach will be interdisciplinary and comparative, with the panelists from sociology, anthropology, political science, and media studies, and with broader East Asia as a comparative horizon.

Lopez lost her sight at an early age and is mostly non-verbal. This exhibition of tactile assemblage works and gestural coiled pots were created by the artist through touch and texture, colored by memory. The works are sensory, physical, immediate, reaffirming, and deeply expressive. Viewers to this exhibition are invited to touch the work. 

During her residency, the artist and her support team, which includes her mother and translator, will engage directly with students in the exhibition space, offering a transformative experience based on human expression and connection through art. Because Ericka feels most comfortable when she is working, she plans to make artwork with students as part of the class engagements with the exhibition.

About Ericka Lopez
Born 1987 in Mexico, Ericka Lopez has been making art at Tierra del Sol Studios since 2019. Working across ceramic, fiber, and mixed media constructions, Lopez’s practice is centralized around her exploration of touch. Lopez was born with limited vision and is now completely blind. Lopez trained in massage therapy and previously volunteered at a soup kitchen when an encounter with Tierra’s ceramics studio shifted her trajectory toward fine art. Her masterful command of clay hand-building techniques enables Lopez to create intricate, dynamic, and organically structured coil vessels. Lopez’s works are informed by her finite recollection of color; she requests specific shades and combinations of glazes that generate spontaneous, distinctive surfaces when fired. This intuitive approach continues in her fiber wall works and mixed media sculptures. Utilizing punch rug embroidery, Lopez creates abstract fields of yarn and found objects, often repeatedly punching through the same area to yield densely layered sections. Lopez has learned to identify the color of her materials via scent and feel, a process that is difficult to put into words. Her mixed media sculptures are created almost entirely by touch, consisting of threads, buttons, beads, fabric scraps, and found objects instinctively stitched together using simple sewing techniques. Lopez hopes her works can be experienced through an inquiry of touch.

Ericka Lopez has exhibited her artwork at Laband Gallery and Tierra del Sol Gallery in Los Angeles, CA. Lopez’s debut solo exhibition, “Continuous Touch,” was curated by jill moniz for Tierra del Sol Gallery in the Spring of 2023. She has had works acquired by notable private collections such as that of Beth DeWoody and by the Kleefeld Contemporary Art Museum at UC Long Beach.",https://events.umich.edu/event/123257,"Thayer Academic Building","Institute for the Humanities Gallery","Thayer Academic Building",,"Art

Mentors and mentees work independently in separate sessions to identify their own objectives and styles and consider strategies for dealing with possible challenges. Then, student-faculty pairs work together to develop a written mentoring plan as a means of codifying some of the most important elements (needs, goals, mutual expectations) of a two-way mentoring relationship. Over 82 percent of Rackham doctoral students who have written mentoring plans report those plans to be useful.

If this is your first time attending a MORE workshop please plan to attend Getting Your Mentoring Relationship Off to a Good Start during Part I.
Faculty who have attended a MORE workshop in the previous academic year have a few more options to choose from for their Part I participation:

Attend Mentoring Across Difference 2.0: A newly developed faculty only session intended to engage faculty in deeper reflection about the issues, concerns, and situations involved when mentoring students from non-traditional backgrounds. Faculty are invited to consider specific actions to take in research and learning spaces that address issues and concerns pertaining to mentoring across differences. The session encourages and supports faculty to explore approaches and solutions that work best for them and their students in particular research laboratories, research teams, and in the research projects students are pursuing under a mentor’s guidance. *Note: We require a minimum of approximately 12 registered faculty members to run this parallel session.
Attend only the faculty and student one-on-one Part II and Part III sessions starting at 11:10 a.m.

Registration is required of both the faculty and the student regardless of the option the faculty chooses. Separate registration for students is available at: https://sessions.studentlife.umich.edu/p/track/11990.

A Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. 
 
As 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.
 
This 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.
 
So 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.

Election seasons can generate 'hot moments' in every discipline, whether your courses frequently raise potentially sensitive subjects or never do so deliberately. How can you navigate those interactions in ways that are responsive to students and also advance course learning goals? In this interactive workshop for instructors in all academic disciplines, participants will reflect on their own experiences of 'hot moments', consider a range of pedagogical choices, and practice language for responding to hot moments in the classroom.

For example, during the 2020 U.S. presidential election, Aggarwal et al. (2023) conducted a randomized experiment to evaluate a negative, digital ad campaign against President Trump and found the campaign to be ineffective in changing voter turnout. But, their null results may not generalize to elections that are less exceptional than 2020, notably when COVID-19 emerged.

The main question in this paper is as follows: would negative, digital ads against Trump remain ineffective in changing voter turnout for the 2024 U.S. presidential elections? A randomized experiment like that in Aggarwal et al. (2023) is the gold standard to answer this question, but can be expensive. Instead, we propose to use a less-than-ideal, but a significantly cheaper and likely faster alternative based on transfer learning where we transfer knowledge from past experimental data to inform ad effectiveness for 2024. A key component of our analysis is a sensitivity analysis that quantifies the unobservable differences between elections, which can be calibrated in a data-driven manner. Within this framework, we propose two estimators to evaluate the ad effect on the target voter population: a simple regression estimator with bootstrap, which we recommend for practitioners in this field, and an estimator based on the efficient influence function for broader applications. Using our framework, we estimate the effect of running a negative, digital anti-Trump ad campaign on voter turnout for the 2024 U.S. presidential election in Pennsylvania (PA), a key ""tipping point"" state for the election. Our findings indicate effect heterogeneity across counties of PA and among important subgroups stratified by gender, urbanicity, and education attainment.

In 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.
 
Pieces 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.  
 
In 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. 
 
By 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. 
 
“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.” 
 
— Toni Morrison

Featuring a wide range of artworks—from historic Yoruba and Kongo figures to contemporary works by African and African American artists, such as Sam Nhlengenthwa, Masimba Hwati, Jon Onye Lockard and Shani Peters—the exhibition directly addresses the complex and difficult histories inherent to African art collections in the Global North, including their entanglements with colonization and global efforts to repatriate African artworks to the continent.
 
Art collections, by their very nature, can not be anything other than subjective. With I Write To You About Africa, we examine the subjective ways UMMA and the University of Michigan as a whole have collected and presented art from and connected to the African diaspora.
 
Drawn from art collections across the U-M campus, a special section of the exhibition highlights how the founding of the Department of Afroamerican and African Studies (DAAS) and the African Studies Center (ASC) impacted U–M’s collecting practices. This section includes an exciting and ongoing project—contemporary African artists, scholars, and curators will be asked to write about their work on postcards, in their first language, and mail them to UMMA where they will be displayed alongside their works. 
 
We Write To You About Africa will be a reinstallation of the Museum’s Robert and Lillian Montalto Bohlen Gallery of African art and the connected Alfred A Taubman Gallery II. It is slated to open in 2021 and will be on view indefinitely.

Lead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost, the Michigan Arts and Culture Council, and the African Studies Center.

Kelly Church &amp; Cherish Parrish: In Our Words, An Intergenerational Dialogue is a major exhibition that centers the subjectivities of two contemporary Indigenous artists whose practices have sustained and bolstered the relevance of the age-old Anishinaabe practice of black ash basket-making in the 21st century. The exhibition highlights the significance of community-based conversations between mother and daughter, and their ongoing conversations with elders (ancestors), young folx, and future generations as vital aspects of their methodology. These conversations often take place during basket gatherings - where community members come together and share stories and teachings that can encompass Anishinaabe creation stories, as well as those of survivance and resilience, to inform the materiality and liveness of their work. The curatorial and interpretive framework of this exhibition contends that the deeply situated and temporal works by Church (Stamps, BFA 1998) and Parrish (LSA, BA 2020) are repositories for Anishinaabe ways of knowing, thinking, and making that contribute to the complexity of American art and its histories. The expansive and bold practices of Church and Parrish affirm the sovereignty of Anishinaabe lifeways and the importance of including Indigenous narratives that have systematically been left out. Thus, the thematic survey of their work will explore the under-examined themes that inform their work such as Native women’s labor as carriers of culture and knowledge-keepers, the legacy of boarding schools and ancestors who walked on, the treaties in Michigan and the long-overlooked legacy of Anishinaabe intellectual life and their relevance today. Just like the practice of weaving and interlacing distinct strips of black ash to create one whole, Church and Parrish will address the diverse and interconnected themes with approximately 30-35 works, including 15-17 new works. Together, the exhibition offers an incisive critique of the colonial, racist paradigm of systemic erasure and assimilation that continues to this day, with the ongoing crises of missing and murdered Indigenous women, culture wars, and climate change that threaten Indigenous ways of living, sustenance, and making.

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.
Artist’s bio:
Michelle 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. 

Recently, 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 presentation examines a series of demonstrations held in the southwestern outskirts of Yangon, Myanmar, the site of a 20,000-acre proposal to transform the region’s farmland into a built-from-scratch “new city.” Slogans and speeches—both in support of and in opposition to the new city—fixed demonstrators' demands in the status of the region’s “real farmer” (လယ်သမားစစ်စစ် or lay-thama sit-sit), a figure both hyper-visible and simultaneously obscured in the popular protest movements of Myanmar and Southeast Asian history. Tracing contested claims about Southwest Yangon’s farmers circulating in the popular press and in state propaganda, this presentation explores the political and pragmatic tactics of future-making amid authoritarian resurgence, rapid urbanization, and the pressures of a changing climate. At stake is a broader politics of visibility, wherein the boundary between the seen and unseen becomes a site through which what is “real” in contemporary Myanmar is questioned.

*What will you learn?*

The guided meditation practice involves three simple steps: relaxation, rejuvenation, and meditation.

Relaxation brings your body to a calm, steady posture creating a stillness at the physical level, and prepares the mind for meditation. We follow this with a rejuvenation method to detox the mind to let go of stress and complex emotions, and will leave you feeling light and refreshed. Lastly, learning to meditate by being mindful of your heart will connect you with yourself by listening to your heart’s voice. 

*Why Meditate?*

While physical fitness keeps our bodies in shape, meditation is an exercise for the mind and mental wellness. In addition to the measurable benefits mentally and physically, many people benefit from an unquantifiable inner poise and harmony. 

*Please take Learn to Meditate session if you are new to the practice. These sessions are offered Monthly.* https://events.umich.edu/event/128708

Gender and Hiring into Entry-Level Sales Jobs","Adina Sterling, Columbia University","Workshop / Seminar","Although sociologists have long recognized that variation within gender categories exists, most research on labor market inequality remains focused on outcomes between two groups: women and men. One way that individuals’ gender varies is through their gender expression, or their conveyance of femininity, masculinity, both or neither in the hiring process. In this project we argue that hiring is affected by the gender expression of candidates, and that gender expression can occur through candidates’ written communication—e.g., in job applications. Using free-form responses on job applications for tens of thousands of candidates for the same entry-level sales job and natural language processing methods, we find evidence that gender is expressed in written communication. Further, we find that candidates—men and women—who express higher levels of masculinity are more apt to be offered jobs. We close with a discussion of how the treatment of gender on a spectrum influences hiring and gender inequality in labor markets.",https://events.umich.edu/event/128462,"Ross School of Business",R2230,"Ross School of Business",,"Business

We will look at each of these changes and consider the implication: when and what will be the next change?

Bio: Whitfield Diffie is best known for his discovery of the concept of public-key cryptography, which he developed jointly with Martin Hellman at Stanford University in the mid-1970s. The two shared the ACM Turing Award in 2015 for work that “made cryptography scalable to the Internet and revolutionized the landscape of security.” Retired from positions as head of security for the Canadian telephone system and Sun Microsystems, Diffie is now an Honorary Fellow of Gonville and Caius College in Cambridge.

It can be characterized by a consistency condition on the conditional certainty equivalents. This paper provides a complete characterization of updating in a general class of ambiguity preferences that obeys this consistency. By extending it to two broader classes of ambiguity preferences, variational preferences and confidence preferences, I obtain two new updating rules that naturally nests the prior-by-prior updating rule but also includes a weight of the inverse likelihood of the occurred events. For ambiguity averse preferences less extreme than the maxmin expected-utility class, these updating rules are a hybrid of the prior-by- prior updating rule and the maximum likelihood consideration.",https://events.umich.edu/event/128609,"Lorch Hall",301,"Lorch Hall",,"Economics

Manuscript cultures are central to premodern societies. Different manuscript formats and material substrates connect texts, images, languages, reading practices, and ritual performances, which in a university setting are often split across multiple departments and fields. Having this broad framework will enable the interest group to explore collaboration across disciplines and facilitate research among different manuscript traditions through an object-centered approach.

In monthly meetings during the Fall and Winter terms, participants will present on current research interests as well as give more general overviews of particular manuscript cultures for informal discussion and exchange. They will also occasionally discuss key readings which have shaped manuscript studies in specific areas or in broader ways. In addition, the interest group hopes to be able to explore manuscript collections in person together, both in and around Ann Arbor as well as further afield. We hope to invite an external speaker once a year to connect the interest group with scholars beyond U-M.

Open to U-M faculty, staff, and graduate students only. Organized by Tina Bawden (History of Art) and Trent Walker (Asian Languages & Cultures). Please contact the group organizers for location.",https://events.umich.edu/event/128281,,,,,"Medieval

Closely related to the KdV and the Benjamin-Ono equation, the ILW equation enjoys a similar well-posedness theory and is formally completely integrable. Kodama, Ablowitz and Satsuma discovered the formal integrability of ILW and formulated inverse scattering transform solutions. If made rigorous, the inverse scattering method will provide powerful tools for asymptotic analysis and can potentially lead to critical regularity well-posedness. In this talk, I will present some recent results on the ILW direct scattering problem. In particular, a Lax pair formulation is clarified, and the spectral theory of the Lax operators can be studied. Existence and uniqueness of scattering states are established for small interaction potential. The scattering matrix can then be constructed from the scattering states. The solution is related to the theory of analytic functions on a strip. This is joint work with Peter Perry.

We further show that the combined (D + 1)-dimensional bulk and D-dimensional edge mode theory can serve as the edge modes of a (D+2)-dimensional bulk theory, which leads to a nested structure of SymThs.

For example, while waiting for an interview, in line at a M-Den, or in an elevator on campus, don’t be startled if a stranger says something to you like, “Did you watch the FootballGame last night? What a game!” They might also make a joke about the long line you’re both in, or comment on the current situation.

The development of the splicing map is inspired by the connection Galashin and Lam established between the torus-equivariant homology of $\Pi_{k,n}^\circ$ and the Khovanov-Rozansky homology $HHH$ of the torus link $T(k,n-k)$.

In so doing, the lecture will also reflect on anticolonialism as a theoretical and historical problem.

Profit-seeking corporations and the American government financed it, but the people who actually built it and were most affected by it — Indigenous and African Americans, as well as Irish, Chinese, Japanese, and other immigrant laborers whose contributions have been largely erased from history — are the focus of this program of music

Silkroad’s American Railroad seeks to right these past wrongs by illuminating the impact of the Transcontinental Railroad and westward expansion on the communities it displaced and those who labored to build it, painting a more accurate picture of the global diasporic origin of the American Empire. The tour program includes new commissions by jazz artist Cécile McLorin Salvant and Silkroad artist and renowned pipa player Wu Man, as well as new arrangements by Rhiannon Giddens and other Silkroad musicians.",https://events.umich.edu/event/121957,"Hill Auditorium",,"Hill Auditorium","Starting at $14 (+ fees).

The hearty base of Town Mountain's music is the first and second generation of bluegrass spiced with country, old school rock ‘n’ roll, and boogie-woogie. It's what else goes into the mix that brings it all to life both on stage and on record and reflects the group's wide-ranging influences – from the Grateful Dead's Jerry Garcia and the ethereal lyrics of Robert Hunter, to the honest, vintage country of Willie, Waylon, and Merle.
The Rolling Stone says “Call it an evolution or a revolution but it’s clear that Town Mountain is at the forefront.” Town Mountain features guitarist and vocalist Robert Greer, mandolinist Phil Barker, fiddler Bobby Britt, and Zach Smith on bass.

John R Miller is a true hyphenate artist: singer-songwriter-picker. Every song on his thrilling debut solo album, Depreciated, is lush with intricate wordplay and haunting imagery, as well as being backed by a band that is on fire. One of his biggest long-time fans is roots music favorite Tyler Childers, who says he's ""a well-traveled wordsmith mapping out the world he's seen, three chords at a time."" Miller is somehow able to transport us to a shadowy honkytonk and get existential all in the same line with his tightly written compositions. Miller's own guitar-playing is on fine display here along with vocals that evoke the white-waters of the Potomac River rumbling below the high ridges of his native Shenandoah Valley.",https://events.umich.edu/event/123923,,,"ARK Reserved","$25 - $35","Ark

Speaker: Chris Eur (Carnegie Mellon University)
Title: How do matroids behave like projective toric varieties?

Abstract: A tropical model of a matroid, called the Bergman fan, provides a toric variety whose Chow ring behaves like a smooth toric projective variety.  What about sheaf cohomologies of line bundles or vector bundles?  How should one make sense of such notions for a matroid? Even for linear matroids, many geometric questions remain.  We discuss various developments surrounding these questions.

Speaker: Matt Larson (Princeton / Institute for Advanced Study)
Title: Fine multidegrees and Grobner degenerations

Abstract:  Grobner degenerations are a method for studying the geometry of a subvariety X of C^n using a scaling action of the multiplicative group C*, but they often lose a lot of information. This information loss can be minimized by compactifying affine space. We show that the possible Grobner degenerations of X are controlled by the homology class of the closure of X in (P^1)^n. This gives a simple criterion for a collection of squarefree polynomials to be a universal Grobner basis, which can be used to recover many known results on universal Grobner bases. We apply this result to a family of matrix Schubert varieties. Joint work with Daoji Huang.

Speaker: Patricia Klein (Texas A&M University)
Title: Gröbner degeneration in Schubert calculus

Abstract: Roughly speaking, enumerative geometry is a field whose goal is to count the ""typical"" number of solutions to certain types of families of polynomial equations, particularly when that number is finite.  With a great deal of effort, especially in the wake of the work of Hermann Schubert around the turn of the 20th century, mathematicians made rigorous the notion of a ""typical"" answer and also made rigorous certain simplifying strategies Schubert had suggested.  Indeed, making Schubert's arguments precise was the topic of Hilbert's 15th problem, and the field born from this study is now called Schubert calculus. The simplifications Schubert had suggested entail sliding or deforming the geometric objects to be studied while preserving the total number of whatever it is one wants to count. These strategies are what are now called degeneration techniques. In this talk, we will review some classical results in Schubert calculus, describe some modern questions in the area, and then explain how these questions are studied via Gröbner degeneration in particular.

Speaker: Jianping Pan (Arizona State University)
Title: Variations of uncrowning algorithms and stable Grothendieck polynomials

Abstract: In this talk, I will provide the motivation, basic definitions, and abundant examples of tableaux related to variations of stable Grothendieck polynomials. The classic uncrowding algorithm defined by Buch on set-valued tableaux gives a bijective proof of Lenart’s Schur expansion for symmetric Grothendieck polynomials. Hook-valued tableaux are associated with stable canonical Grothendieck polynomials and we introduce an uncrowding algorithm on them. Recently Hwang, Jang, Kim, Song and Song gave a Schur expansion for the refined canonical stable Grothendieck polynomials (using exquisite tableaux). We discover a novel connection between the exquisite tableaux model and hook-valued tableaux via the uncrowding and jeu de taquin algorithms, using a classic result of Benkart, Sottile and Stroomer. This connection reveals a hidden symmetry of the hook-valued tableaux and the uncrowding algorithm defined on them. This talk is based on joint work with Pappe, Poh and Schilling, and with Jang, Kim, Pappe and Schilling.",https://events.umich.edu/event/125630,"East Hall","1360 and Atrium","East Hall",,Mathematics,"Combinatorics Seminar - Department of Mathematics

While South Korea had long been the major source of emigrants fleeing poverty and political turmoil in their homeland, it has emerged since the early 1990s as one of the most popular migrant destinations in East Asia. The ethnic Korean population outside the Korean peninsula now includes not only the descendants of colonial-era migrants to Japan and Manchuria, but also the post-1960s emigrants to North America, a large size of adoptees in North America and Northwestern Europe, and educational migrants and Christian missionaries across the globe. Migrants in South Korea are equally diverse. They include: labor migrants in agricultural, manufacturing, and service sectors; marriage migrants constituting the fast-growing “multicultural families”; asylum-seekers from across the world; and international students and English teachers recruited by educational institutions. North Korean and ethnic Korean migrants from China also constitute a significant portion of migrants in South Korea. This two-day conference will explore the politics of migration, diaspora, and race in transnational Korea—the topic that has moved Korean Studies in a transnational direction in the past decade or so. The approach will be interdisciplinary and comparative, with the panelists from sociology, anthropology, political science, and media studies, and with broader East Asia as a comparative horizon.

A Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. 
 
As 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.
 
This 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.
 
So 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.

Kelly Church &amp; Cherish Parrish: In Our Words, An Intergenerational Dialogue is a major exhibition that centers the subjectivities of two contemporary Indigenous artists whose practices have sustained and bolstered the relevance of the age-old Anishinaabe practice of black ash basket-making in the 21st century. The exhibition highlights the significance of community-based conversations between mother and daughter, and their ongoing conversations with elders (ancestors), young folx, and future generations as vital aspects of their methodology. These conversations often take place during basket gatherings - where community members come together and share stories and teachings that can encompass Anishinaabe creation stories, as well as those of survivance and resilience, to inform the materiality and liveness of their work. The curatorial and interpretive framework of this exhibition contends that the deeply situated and temporal works by Church (Stamps, BFA 1998) and Parrish (LSA, BA 2020) are repositories for Anishinaabe ways of knowing, thinking, and making that contribute to the complexity of American art and its histories. The expansive and bold practices of Church and Parrish affirm the sovereignty of Anishinaabe lifeways and the importance of including Indigenous narratives that have systematically been left out. Thus, the thematic survey of their work will explore the under-examined themes that inform their work such as Native women’s labor as carriers of culture and knowledge-keepers, the legacy of boarding schools and ancestors who walked on, the treaties in Michigan and the long-overlooked legacy of Anishinaabe intellectual life and their relevance today. Just like the practice of weaving and interlacing distinct strips of black ash to create one whole, Church and Parrish will address the diverse and interconnected themes with approximately 30-35 works, including 15-17 new works. Together, the exhibition offers an incisive critique of the colonial, racist paradigm of systemic erasure and assimilation that continues to this day, with the ongoing crises of missing and murdered Indigenous women, culture wars, and climate change that threaten Indigenous ways of living, sustenance, and making.

In 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.
 
Pieces 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.  
 
In 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. 
 
By 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. 
 
“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.” 
 
— Toni Morrison

Featuring a wide range of artworks—from historic Yoruba and Kongo figures to contemporary works by African and African American artists, such as Sam Nhlengenthwa, Masimba Hwati, Jon Onye Lockard and Shani Peters—the exhibition directly addresses the complex and difficult histories inherent to African art collections in the Global North, including their entanglements with colonization and global efforts to repatriate African artworks to the continent.
 
Art collections, by their very nature, can not be anything other than subjective. With I Write To You About Africa, we examine the subjective ways UMMA and the University of Michigan as a whole have collected and presented art from and connected to the African diaspora.
 
Drawn from art collections across the U-M campus, a special section of the exhibition highlights how the founding of the Department of Afroamerican and African Studies (DAAS) and the African Studies Center (ASC) impacted U–M’s collecting practices. This section includes an exciting and ongoing project—contemporary African artists, scholars, and curators will be asked to write about their work on postcards, in their first language, and mail them to UMMA where they will be displayed alongside their works. 
 
We Write To You About Africa will be a reinstallation of the Museum’s Robert and Lillian Montalto Bohlen Gallery of African art and the connected Alfred A Taubman Gallery II. It is slated to open in 2021 and will be on view indefinitely.

Lead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost, the Michigan Arts and Culture Council, and the African Studies Center.

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.
Artist’s bio:
Michelle 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. 

Recently, 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).
