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

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. \n\nDuring 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.\n\nAbout Ericka Lopez\nBorn 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.\n\nEricka 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.

A significant percentage of people are now recognized as having neurotypes that are not well supported by societal norms and our collective understanding of how to communicate across and support neurodiversity is still developing. Fortunately researchers\, educators\, and advocates who identify as neurodivergent are contributing to a growing body of best practices. \n\nJoin the LSA Faculty & Staff Disability Navigators for this two-part workshop to learn about neurodiversity and how we can all start creating more neuroinclusive workplaces. \n\nParticipants will:\n1. Understand what neurodiversity is and how the concept has evolved over time.\n2. Reflect on the ways neurodiversity shapes our experiences\, behaviors\, aptitudes\, and understanding of the world.\n3. Gain insight into how contemporary work norms can exclude and create barriers for a range of neurotypes.\n4. Explore neuroinclusive practices we can proactively integrate into our workplaces.\n5. Become familiar with relevant resources for LSA employees. \n\nAudience: This is a beginner-level workshop open to any LSA employee\, including our student employees. LSA employees receive priority access\, so while external guests are welcome to register they may be waitlisted and allocated spots as space allows.\n\nImportant note: Please do your best to register for and attend both parts 1 and 2 as the content builds on itself.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621442@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241111T140915 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241114T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241114T110000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:v-ATPase Assembly Factors in Autophagy Regulation DESCRIPTION:Mentor: Daniel Klionsky\nCheck the MCDB Weekly update for the password.

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

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

Register for the Zoom webinar at: https://myumi.ch/RmN4G\n \n The Korean scholar-bureaucrats (yangban) have been drawing public attention among Japanese intellectuals since the beginning of the 20th century. This lecture reviews how Japanese magazines represented yangban\, tracing how their image changed from the evil noblemen that kept Korean society stagnant to the graceful embodiers of vanishing authentic Korean culture. Both these images\, and even the transition from one to the other\, were driven by a Japanese version of orientalism.\n \n Shimpei Cole Ota is a sociocultural anthropologist trained both in Seoul National University (ABD\, 2003) and Osaka University (Ph.D.\, 2007).

For instance\, proteins for intercellular adhesion and communication are localized to the cell surface while many energy-producing enzymes stay in the mitochondrion. High-resolution\, proteome-wide mapping of protein localization is of core importance for understanding cellular organization and processes. \n\nIn this talk\, Jiefu Li\, Ph.D.\, will describe an end-to-end pipeline for in situ cell-surface proteomics\, from chemical and transgenic tools to a user-friendly platform for data analysis\, and present how in situ cell-surface proteomics of developing brains discovers “outside-the-box” regulators of neuronal wiring. Moreover\, in vivo interactome mapping of key synaptic organizers uncovers the cellular and molecular mechanisms of synaptic matching and maturation and highlights the RhoGAP/RhoGEF as a signaling hub for synaptic development.\n\nSpeaker:\nJiefu Li\, Ph.D.\nGroup Leader\, 4D Cellular Physiology\nJanelia Research Campus\, Howard Hughes Medical Institute UID:128291-21860602@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/128291 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Basic Science,Biology,biomedical,Biosciences,cells,Life Science,life sciences,life sciences institute,Neuroscience LOCATION:Palmer Commons - Forum Hall CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241129T063147 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241114T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241114T123500 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Northwestern Mutual College Financial Advising Info Session DESCRIPTION:Join us for a quick informational sessional about our exciting Financial Advising Internship!

Recent policy efforts have attempted to mitigate adverse outcomes through legislation and extending access to care with postpartum coverage through Medicaid expansion. Even with progress\, perinatal mental health policy continues to grapple with a basic truth: The United States lacks an overarching health care system capable of meeting the mental health care needs of perinatal people and their families. Moreover\, the burden of undiagnosed and untreated perinatal mental health challenges remains greatest among racially minoritized populations\, such as Black\, Asian\, and multiracial people. A broader understanding of perinatal mental health is needed\, grounded in the tenets of reproductive justice. Drawing from the reproductive justice framework and the NAPSW code of ethics\, this talk will articulate specific policies to meet perinatal mental health challenges and promote thriving for birthing people and their families.\n\nFree and open to the public. \n**Due to an overwhelming response\, we are no longer offering Continuing Education credit to eligible attendees.** However\, we are still accepting RSVPs!

A major opportunity exists in identifying more efficient\, productive\, and environmentally friendly processes that operate in a continuous fashion. One attractive possibility is membrane-based separations\, but significant materials limitations exist in designing membranes that can selectively distinguish between molecules with sub-angstrom differences in size and nearly identical thermodynamic properties. To survey these challenges and describe emerging opportunities\, a brief overview of the current state-of-the-art in membrane-based materials and applications will be presented. Next\, several design strategies will be presented on how to leverage pore structure and pore functionality to control separation performance. A particular emphasis will be placed on new materials chemistries with a focus on testing materials under complex gas mixtures and for extended periods of time. Microporous materials\, including polymers of intrinsic microporosity (PIMs) and metal–organic frameworks (MOFs)\, will be highlighted to demonstrate the many opportunities that exist for scientists and engineers to tackle global challenges in chemical separations today.\n\nSpeaker Bio:\nZachary P.

While they may be complex and time-consuming\, textbook problems are “tidy” in that they are well-defined\, closed-ended\, and decontextualized. In contrast\, the practice of engineering is “messy.” The design process is ill-defined\, modeling and analysis are open-ended\, and the engineered systems affect and are affected by society in positive and negative ways. In this talk I frame the messiness of engineering as an important part of the conversation about DEI in engineering. By exposing students to the messiness of engineering throughout their undergraduate education\, instructors can better prepare students for their careers\; help students to reflect upon their views and biases\; and present engineering as socially constructed\, instead of inherently upholding a white supremacist culture. I will then present the SHUTTLE Lab’s design-based research approach to putting some of this messiness back into engineering science courses. Specifically\, I will describe our work addressing the messiness of mathematical modeling. We are focused on the professional skill of engineering judgment\, and are simultaneously creating open-ended modeling problems\, studying emerging engineering modeling judgment\, and training faculty to notice and respond to their students’ displays of engineering judgment. \n\nBio: Aaron W.

Bridging the Gulf: Patterns in Contemporary story from Kuwait to Oman DESCRIPTION:This presentation focuses on the importance of studying contemporary Gulf states. The definition of contemporary in this context considers the period starting from the early 1990s. The reason for this has to do with the collapse of the Soviet Union\, regional changes like the invasion of Kuwait and its consequences\, and the wider Middle Eastern regional consequences. The presentation also looks at the patterns that emerged in all Gulf states at the same time in different contexts: political\, economic\, and social.\n\nMahjoob Zweiri is a professor of contemporary politics and Middle Eastern history with a focus on Iran and the Gulf region.

She was awarded a Sloan Research Fellowship in Computer Science in 2024. Paquette’s research broadly focuses on designing and analyzing algorithms for large-scale optimization problems\, motivated by applications in data science. She is also interested in scaling limits of stochastic learning algorithms. She received her PhD from the mathematics department at the University of Washington (2017)\, held postdoctoral positions at Lehigh University (2017-2018) and the University of Waterloo (NSF postdoctoral fellowship\, 2018-2019)\, and works 20% as a research scientist at Google DeepMind\, Montreal.\n\n\nAbstract: Given the massive scale of modern ML models\, we now only get a single shot to train them effectively. This restricts our ability to test multiple architectures and hyper-parameter configurations. Instead\, we need to understand how these models scale\, allowing us to experiment with smaller problems and then apply those insights to larger-scale models. In this talk\, I will present a framework for analyzing scaling laws in stochastic learning algorithms using a power-law random features model\, leveraging high-dimensional probability and random matrix theory. I will then use this scaling law to address the compute-optimal question: How should we choose model size and hyper-parameters to achieve the best possible performance in the most compute-efficient manner?

Central to this objective is developing control and navigation stacks that avoid conservatism\, presumed to be measured by a performance metric\, while being provably and practically safe. A crucial element that must be accounted for is that controllers\, which are typically designed for and tuned in laboratory or highly monitored industrial settings for a specific scenario\, may experience a drop in performance and lose their safety guarantees when used elsewhere. It is of paramount importance therefore to import robots with the capability to adapt their controllers online to customize responses to a priori untested environments.\n\nIn this dissertation\, I present (1) tools to adapt any parametric controller using a model-based approach to achieve simultaneous satisfaction of multiple state constraints and enhanced performance\; (2) a numerical scheme for predicting future state distributions in systems governed by stochastic dynamics with state-dependent disturbances\, which can be utilized in model-predictive approaches\; and (3) a method to assist decision-making on dropping (disregarding) constraints when it is not feasible to satisfy all constraints simultaneously.\n\nA significant part of the dissertation also focuses on a specific safety-critical control method - control barrier functions (CBF). The CBF-based controllers have garnered interest in recent years due to their ease of implementation. However\, finding a theoretically valid CBF remains a challenge and in practice\, they are prone to performance degradation and safety violations\, especially when multiple CBFs are imposed together. This dissertation introduces a new notion of CBFs\, called Rate-Tunable CBFs\, that allows for time-varying parameters in theory and online tuning in practice.

Using quantum Hall and quantum spin Hall insulators as key examples\, I will explain the mechanisms behind skyrmion formation through electron doping in these correlated and gapped topological systems. We provide a detailed analysis of the phase diagrams and the formation of skyrmion lattices within the Kane-Mele-Hubbard model\, supported by calculations from both the unrestricted real-space Hartree-Fock and density matrix renormalization group methods. In these systems\, the doped electron and skyrmion form a composite object whose density is governed by the doped electron density. This electron-skyrmion bound state is stabilized by the coupling between the orbital magnetization of the Chern band and the emergent magnetic flux generated by the skyrmion. Moreover\, we find that doping induces quantum anomalous Hall crystals\, which exhibit quantized Hall conductance and broken translational symmetry. Our theory offers an intrinsic mechanism for the experimentally observed robust quantum anomalous Hall insulator over an extended doping range near a filling factor of ν = 1 in twisted transition metal moiré superlattices.\n\nReference: Miguel Gonçalves and Shi-Zeng Lin\, arXiv:2407.12198\n\nShort-bio:\nShizeng Lin completed his Ph.D. at the National Institute for Materials Science and the University of Tsukuba in Japan.

XRISM\, an international JAXA/NASA collaboration including participation from ESA\, is an advanced X-ray observatory capable of carrying out a science program that will address some of the most important questions in astrophysics in the 2020s. XRISM is essentially a rebuild of the Hitomi (Astro-H) spacecraft that was lost due to an operational mishap early in the mission in 2016. Resolve\, the primary instrument on XRISM\, is a high-resolution\, non-dispersive X-ray spectrometer operating between 0.3-12 keV\, providing high-resolution (~5 eV) spectroscopic capabilities in this critical energy band with a response peaking around the ubiquitous 6.4 keV Fe K-alpha line. A wide-field imager\, Xtend\, will offer simultaneous coverage over nearly a 40’ square field of view\, with ~1’ spatial resolution. XRISM will study all manner of astrophysical objects\, including galaxies and clusters\, AGN\, X-ray binaries\, supernova remnants\, transient phenomena\, stars\, and the interstellar medium. In this talk\, I will highlight some of the scientific topics that XRISM will address\, in addition to providing a general status update on the mission. I will discuss the synergies between high-resolution X-ray spectroscopy and observations at other wavelengths\, including optical\, radio\, and IR\, and summarize the General Observer program\, where funding is available for observers based at U.S. institutions.

An extensive literature has established the existence of rotating stars for given differentially rotating angular velocity profiles. However\, all of the existing results require the angular velocity to depend on the distance to the rotation axis\, but not on the distance to the equatorial plane. Incidentally\, all of these solutions have constant entropy within the star. In this talk\, I will present a recent result which is the first that allows a general rotation profile\, without restrictions. It is also the first result that allows genuinely changing entropy within the star. The variation of entropy causes the previous methods used to construct steady solutions inapplicable. We discover a div-curl reformulation of the problem and perform analysis on the resulting elliptic-hyperbolic system. This is joint work with Juhi Jang and Walter Strauss.

Little arrived in Ann Arbor in 1925\, American universities were in the midst of a great transition\, revamping their admission systems to limit the number of Jewish students on their campuses. Professor Karla Goldman will discuss the status of Jewish students at Michigan during this period and how President Little\, well known as a eugenicist\, actually resisted some of the racist and antisemitic assumptions of his time. His tenure illustrates the long and complicated history of inclusion and exclusion at U-M and in American higher education.\n\nKarla Goldman is the Sol Drachler Professor of Social Work and Professor of Judaic Studies at the University of Michigan where she also directs the Jewish Communal Leadership Program. Her research focuses on the history of American Jewish experience with special attention to history of varied Jewish communities and the evolving roles and identities of American Jewish women. She previously taught at Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion in Cincinnati and served as historian in residence at the Jewish Women’s Archive in Boston. She is the author of Beyond the Synagogue Gallery: Finding a Place for Women in American Judaism (Harvard University Press\, 2000).

I will be discussing a recent generalization of the ping pong lemma in the context of group actions on projective space. Using this result I will describe an algorithm which can calculate explicit bounds on the size of the kernel of a representation of certain finitely generated groups into SL(2\, R).

The first rational homology of the Torelli group is known for a closed surface of genus 2 by work of Mess\, and for closed surfaces of genus at least 3 by work of Johnson. We will discuss forthcoming work with Putman that computes the second rational homology of the Torelli group for all closed surfaces of genus at least 6. In particular\, we will show that this homology group is an algebraic representation of the symplectic group. Combined with the work of Kupers and Randal-Williams\, this partially resolves Church and Farb's conjecture that the rational homology of the Torelli group is representation stable over the symplectic group.

He has worked extensively with overlooked plant fibers such as sisal\, loofah\, and corn leaves. Laposse’s works are the result of extensive research which culminates in objects of “endemic design” where materials and their historical and cultural ties to a particular location and its people take center stage. He often works with indigenous communities in his native Mexico to create local employment opportunities and raise awareness about the challenges they face in a globalized world.\nLaposse’s projects are informative and educational and touch on topics such as sustainability\, the loss of biodiversity\, community dissolution\, migration\, and the negative impacts of global trade in local agriculture and food culture. He does so by documenting the issues and announcing possible resolutions through the transformative power of design.\nLaposse’s projects have been exhibited in the Triennale di Milano\, the Cooper Hewitt Design Museum\, The Design Museum in London\, the Victoria and Albert Museum\, and the World Economic Forum\, among others. His work is held in the permanent collections of the Design Museum Gent\, Le centre national des arts plastiques\, Musée des Arts Décoratifs\, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art\, the National Gallery of Victoria\, and the Victoria &\; Albert Museum. Laposse studied at Central Saint Martins in London as a product designer and currently lives and works in Mexico City.\nPresented in partnership with Design Core Detroit. This project was made possible by a grant from the Arts Initiative at the University of Michigan.\nSeries presenting partners: Detroit PBS and PBS Books. Media partner: Michigan Radio.

It has also been reimagined and published as a web-based work on oral.pub. Her pamphlet\, Say Translation Is Art (Ugly Duckling Presse\, 2020)\, which encourages the untethering of translated texts from conventional relationships to their source texts\, has been taught\, translated\, or performed in the US and in Europe – including as a spoken word performance by Danielle Zawadi in Dutch translation\, at the Dutch Foundation for Literature’s Annual Translation Convention in 2022. \n\nNakayasu’s translation of the Japanese modernist poet Sagawa Chika\, *The Collected Poems of Chika Sagawa*\, supported by the NEA and published by Canarium Books in 2015\, received the PEN Award for Poetry in Translation\, the Lucien Stryk Asian Translation Prize\, and was a finalist for the National Translation Award in Poetry. It was subsequently acquired by Penguin/Random House for their Modern Library series and republished in 2020 in a new edition with updated introduction. *Poet Sagawa Chika: Late Gathering*\, currently under development with the Brown Digital Publications Initiative\, is a born digital\, scholarly publication based on Sagawa’s poetry and legacy. \n\nNakayasu teaches in the Literary Arts department at Brown University\, where she teaches poetry\, translation\, and interdisciplinary art.\n\nFor any questions about the event or to share accommodation needs\, please email kimjulie@umich.edu--we are eager to help ensure this event is inclusive to you.

This event is open to all adults who have an interest in fiction\, mythology\, and the ancient world. Learn more about this program at https://myumi.ch/Drn1Q. \n\nThis month\, we are reading *The Palace of Eros* by Caro De Robertis. A recent release\, the novel was featured in *Electric Literature*’s “65 Queer Books You Need to Read in Summer 2024.” The Palace of Eros reimagines the Greek myth of Psyche and Eros through a feminist and queer lens. Psyche—pursued by many but longing for freedom—is tied to a rock as a sacrifice to appease Aphrodite. But rather than meeting destruction\, she is saved by the nonbinary deity of desire Eros\, who whisks her away to a hidden palace safe from the eyes and authority of Olympus. As Psyche and Eros fall in love\, their relationship is tested by the complexities of secrecy\, freedom\, and desire—and met with transformative consequences. \n\nJoin us in Room 125 of Newberry Hall for an evening of community and conversation led by Gabriel Key\, a PhD candidate in the Interdepartmental Program in Ancient Mediterranean Art and Archaeology. Light refreshments will be served. \n\n*Note: Registration for this session is now closed.

She is recognized as an exceptionally gifted artist\, reflected in the numerous awards and effusive reviews she has received for both her live performances and recordings.\n\nPrizewinner of several international competitions in Portugal (Cardona Competition)\, Russia (Liana Issakadze Competition) and London (Benjamin Britten Competition)\, the international career of Jolente started with a successful participation at the Queen Elisabeth Competition in Brussels. Performances with all major Belgian orchestras and concert tours in Europe and the United States followed. She made her debut in Florida\, Vermont\, California\, Washington DC and Canada in 2017. This was followed by an extensive tour in South Africa. Future engagements include concert tours in Europe\, Canada\, United States and China.\n\nHer recordings include concerti by Saint-Saëns and Vieuxtemps with the Philharmonic Orchestra of Liège with Christian Arming\, awarded an ‘Editors Choice’ from Diapason\, and the CD *Kreutzer Sonata* with duo partner Nikolaas Kende\, awarded a ‘Gold Label’ from Klassiek Centraal.\n \nAfter an invitation from Yehudi Menuhin when she was 14 years old\, Jolente studied at the Yehudi Menuhin School near London. She continued her studies in London\, Berlin and Waterloo where she graduated in the class of Augustin Dumay in 2013.\n\nSince 2018 Jolente is professor violin at the Conservatory of Tilburg\, the Netherlands and since 2021 also at the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp. Jolente has given masterclasses in Belgium\, Germany\, Italy\, Texas and California.\n\n \n“Poet in every inch of his fingers” - *Le Progres*\n\nNIKOLAAS KENDE has been praised for his poetic playing and honest\, passionate musicality. Critics have honored his sensitive and visionary musicianship and his flawless skills always serving the music. Both as soloist and chamber musician he is a highly demanded pianist on international concert stages.\n\nA winner of several competitions\, including the Cantabile\, EPTA\, Vriendenkrans Concertgebouw Amsterdam and Tenuto competitions\, Nikolaas started performing in all major halls in Belgium and the Netherlands. Highlights included the performances of the piano concertos by Brahms\, Beethoven\, Chopin\, Schumann and Bartok with Brussels Philharmonic\, Antwerp Symphony Orchestra\, National Radio Orchestra Romania\, among others.\n\nAfter a concert at the Festival de Dansa y Musica Granada in 2019 *Ideal* wrote: \"This promising pianist caresses the keyboard\, expressive with colors and tender with the melody and all the degrees of affection that typify the romantic soul.\"\n\nBesides being a regular guest at the Festival of Flanders\, he has also performed at festivals in Italy (Ravello\, Rome\, Bari)\, France (Menton\, Montpellier\, Vexin)\, Portugal (Coimbra)\, Germany (Görlitz\, Munich\, Bad Berleburg) \, Austria (Salzburg)\, Ireland (Westport)\, UK (Cotswolds)\, Czech Republic (Prague)\, Spain (Zaragoza\, Madrid).\n\nNikolaas made his debut in America in 2009 with the 1st piano concerto of Brahms. This debut was well received in the press\, “One could almost imagine a young Brahms at the keyboard doing precisely the same thing: more intent on communicating his piece than dazzling listeners with his performance.” Since then he has returned to America annually and has toured in Texas (Houston\, Austin\, San Antonio)\, California (San Francisco\, Fresno\, LA) and Vermont\, Florida\, California\, Texas\, Washington DC and New York. In 2019 amongst others his debut for the 'Dame Myra Hess Memorial Concerts' in Chicago.

Concerts in Shanghai\, Xi'An\, Yangzhou and Guangzhou followed in 2019. Also for the next seasons\, concerts are planned in North America\, Canada\, South Africa and China.\n\nAs a chamber music partner he was a member of the Narziss und Goldmund trio and the Rubens Ensemble. His duo with violinist Jolente De Maeyer\, which exists for almost 20 years\, is often praised in the press for its exceptional synergy and harmony. The duo's debut CD *Kreutzer Sonata* was released by Warner and won a Golden Label from Klassiek Centraal for best chamber music album of 2016. De Standaard wrote about this: \"You want to listen to this captivating recital album again immediately after the last track.\" In 2020 their next CD *Remains* was released by Evil Penguin Records.\n\nNikolaas studied in Antwerp with his parents\, Heidi Hendrickx and Levente Kende\, in Amsterdam with Jan Wijn and in Munich and Fiesole with Elisso Virsaladze. In addition he studied with such artists as Murray Perahia\, Aldo Ciccolini and Radu Lupu.\n\nIn 2015\, Nikolaas was appointed professor of piano at the Royal Conservatoire of Antwerp. He has given masterclasses in Belgium\, Germany\, Italy\, Portugal\, Texas\, California and China.

This production\, situated in the 1970s with echoes of classic TV shows The Brady Bunch and Bewitched\, emphasizes the darker undercurrents in the familiar tale of Hänsel and Gretel being sent into the forest by their frustrated mother. They gather berries and frolic in the woods\, soon realizing they are lost as darkness descends. In the morning\, Hänsel and Gretel spot an enticing house made of sugary cereal. As they nibble on the house\, a frightening witch appears from within and captures the children\, threatening to fatten Hansel up and use him to make confections. The clever children must keep their wits about them to avoid a fiery fate.\n\nComposed by Engelbert Humperdinck\; libretto by Adelheid Wette \nBased on the fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm\nConductor Kirk Severtson\nDirected by Gregory Keller\n UID:122608-21849438@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/122608 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Dance,Music,Storytelling,Theater LOCATION:Power Center for the Performing Arts CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241111T181655 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241114T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241114T210000 SUMMARY:Performance:Violin Studio Recital DESCRIPTION:Violin students of Professor Fabiola Kim perform a recital.

During the pandemic\, Adam live-streamed for 500 nights in a row. The group co-produced an album with 163 fans\, and Adam takes a month out of each year to visit the living rooms of his fans around the country.\n\nIf you haven’t connected with Adam Ezra Group yet\, these are just a few examples to help understand how this underground\, Americana songwriter and his bandmates seem to have popped out of nowhere\, establishing a connection with their fans unlike any other\, and are suddenly selling out theaters throughout the Northeast. \nAdam Ezra will joke with you that while the “nowhere” part might be accurate\, nothing has ever just “popped” for this folk musician\, activist. Without resources\, connections\, or any kind of clue how the music world works\, Ezra began playing shows over 20 years ago. He played bars\, bookstores\, fields\, and parking lots\, often raising money for causes he cared about\; a practice that grew into his nonprofit organization RallySound. \n\nSo how did this band operating so far outside the traditional music world come to win New England Music Award’s “Americana Act of the Year” in 2023? What could have happened to inspire John Oates to call Adam and invite him to begin a songwriting friendship that would lead to John producing their upcoming release and co-write\, “Hold Each Other Now”? What happened to catch the attention of The Wallflowers\, who recently invited AEG to join them on their spring tour\, or SPIN Magazine who recently proclaimed\, “This Independent Underground Folk Band Is Blowing Up Without Selling Out”? \n\nIf you ask Adam\, he’ll tell you: “One person at a time\, over many years and thousands of shows\, decided to turn their heads to listen… It’s no fairytale\, but it sure makes me proud and humbled when I look out from the stage to watch theaters full of people singing along to our music.”\n\nThese days you’ll find Adam and his bandmates\, Corinna Smith (Fiddle)\, Poche Ponce (Bass)\, and Alex Martin (Percussion)\, constantly out on the road. If you look at their tour schedule now\, you can buy tickets to see them at festivals\, rock venues\, and theaters around the country\, but you will also see their tour continuously peppered with activism and grassroots events\; a testament to an artist who will never forget where he came from\, and whose mission is about much more than music.\n\nhttps://www.adamezra.com/\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/5059/5060 for more detail.

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. \n\nDuring 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.\n\nAbout Ericka Lopez\nBorn 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.\n\nEricka 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.

Her pamphlet\, *Say Translation Is Art* (Ugly Duckling Presse\, 2020)\, which encourages the untethering of translated texts from conventional relationships to their source texts\, has been taught\, translated\, or performed in the US and in Europe – including as a spoken word performance by Danielle Zawadi in Dutch translation\, at the Dutch Foundation for Literature’s Annual Translation Convention in 2022. \n\nNakayasu’s translation of the Japanese modernist poet Sagawa Chika\, *The Collected Poems of Chika Sagawa*\, supported by the NEA and published by Canarium Books in 2015\, received the PEN Award for Poetry in Translation\, the Lucien Stryk Asian Translation Prize\, and was a finalist for the National Translation Award in Poetry. It was subsequently acquired by Penguin/Random House for their Modern Library series and republished in 2020 in a new edition with updated introduction. *Poet Sagawa Chika: Late Gathering*\, currently under development with the Brown Digital Publications Initiative\, is a born digital\, scholarly publication based on Sagawa’s poetry and legacy. \n\nNakayasu teaches in the Literary Arts department at Brown University\, where she teaches poetry\, translation\, and interdisciplinary art.\n\nFor any questions about the event or to share accommodation needs\, please email kimjulie@umich.edu--we are eager to help ensure that this event is inclusive to you.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621443@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241011T132746 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241115T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241115T110000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Visualizing TDP43 Pathology with Cryo-Electron Tomography DESCRIPTION:Postdoctoral Fellow\nMosalaganti Lab UID:127714-21859519@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/127714 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Structural Biology LOCATION:Life Sciences Institute - LSI Library CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241115T181510 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241115T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241115T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Arbor Glyph DESCRIPTION:Arbor Glyph is an installation centered around a collective painting of trees\, created by Stamps students and activated by a colorful projection repurposing hand-painted elements and bringing them to life.

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

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

Northern Borneo\, and the British Straits Settlements (Penang\, Melaka and Singapore) were reclaimed extensively but not in the same way due to different political and labor configurations. British\, Japanese and other European private enterprise financed the bulk of land reclamation in the former while the colonial government paid for it in the latter entirely. Reclaimed land expanded Singapore’s harbor and port facilities. Increase in rubber exports from the 1920s onwards prompted the British to finance land reclamation in Southeast Asia.\n \n Nurfadzilah Yahaya is an Assistant Professor of History at Yale University. She received her BA (2003) and MA (2006) from the National University of Singapore\, and her PhD (2012) in History from Princeton University. Before coming to Yale\, she taught at the National University of Singapore. From 2012 to 2015\, she was the Mark Steinberg Weil Early Career Fellow in Islamic Studies at Washington University in St. Louis. Nurfadzilah Yahaya specializes in history of Southeast Asia\, Indian Ocean history\, legal history\, history of infrastructure\, and environmental history. Her first book\, Fluid Jurisdictions: Colonial Law and Arabs in Southeast Asia (Cornell University Press\, 2020\; paperback 2022) demonstrates how colonial subjects entrenched European colonial legalities in British and Dutch territories in Southeast Asia by playing several jurisdictions against one another from the mid-nineteenth century onwards. Drawing on archival sources in Malay\, French\, Arabic\, Dutch and English\, she reconstructs family\, religious\, bureaucratic\, and commercial legal orders across the Indian Ocean.\n \n Yahaya’s current book project ‘Overflow: History of Land Reclamation in the British Empire in the Twentieth Century’ lies at the intersection of environmental history\, urban history\, science and technology studies\, legal history\, and history of infrastructure.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at cseas@umich.edu.

The current state-of-the-practice Geospace model is computationally expensive for fine-grid global simulations\, while existing machine learning methods consistently tend to underestimate dBH. Additionally\, these models either lack uncertainty quantification (UQ) or provide UQ that lacks calibration. In this work\, as part of the NextGen SWMF project funded by NSF\, we develop a data-driven\, grid-free global model using deep Gaussian process (DGP)\, a Bayesian non-parametric approach that forecasts the dBH for the full surface of Earth with calibrated uncertainty. The model uses solar wind measurements and the Dst index as input\, and it is trained based on ground magnetometer station data provided by SuperMAG over the period 1995-2022. The model's predictions are evaluated based on the Heidke skill score (HSS) for a total of 22 geomagnetic storms in 2015. We further test the model on the 2024 May 10-12 storm. The results demonstrate that our model outperforms the state-of-the-art model\, with predictions exhibiting high accuracy in mid-latitudes and high-latitude regions in the northern hemisphere.\n\nBio:\nHongfan Chen is a third-year PhD student in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Michigan.

In addition to complications common to all archival projects\, this effort has also encountered difficulties with sharing the evidence that has been generated according to decades-old traditions of archaeological fieldwork. Where today many academic institutions and professional organizations have established policies that protect individuals on archaeological projects\, these codes of ethics can only highlight moments in the past when such practices were not observed. Moreover\, they do not suggest a means of remedy or redress. Thus\, for archival archaeologists\, simple questions of intellectual property\, publication rights\, and the transfer of copyright between institutional sponsors do not have easy answers. This paper discusses three examples of the challenges to observing contemporary academic ethics in an archival setting: the use of memoranda of understanding in (re)establishing publication rights\, the search for former project staff to establish intellectual property rights\, and the publication of unattributed archival materials in digital format. Hopefully\, these experiences will raise awareness of places where such older traditions remain in practice and in so doing\, show that archival archaeology can play a role in shaping future fieldwork as it looks critically at our methodological past.

DESCRIPTION:Solutions to partial differential equations can exhibit singularities near non-smooth points of a domain\, even when the given data is smooth. Depending on the geometry of the domain\, corner singularities are among the most common singularities in practice\, and have been a significant focus of research in the computational community. In this talk\, we examine the prevalence of these singularities in mathematical modeling and demonstrate effective techniques to mitigate their impact in scientific computation\, including the characterization of corner singularities\, graded mesh algorithms\, and mixed methods for high-order problems.\n\nContact: Robert Krasny.

Examples of FDA-approved biologics include therapeutic proteins (e.g. blood clotting factors and antibodies)\, engineered viruses for gene therapy\, and cell therapies. Biologics are addressing previous unmet medical needs\, but are challenging to manufacture and therefore high in cost. In this talk\, I will describe our efforts to develop synthetic alternatives to biologics used in medicine. In the first example\, we develop synthetic polymers that facilitate hemostasis and resuscitation for trauma medicine. In a second example\, we synthesize a polymer that facilitates intracellular delivery of biologic cargo synthesized based on design principles learned from adenoviral vectors. In a final example\, we identify unique aptamers to replace antibodies used in cell therapy manufacturing.\nBio:\nSuzie H.

Thi Nguyen (Utah)\nNovember 15\, 2024\n2306 Mason Hall\, 3-5 PM\n\nTitle: The Social Function of Scoring Systems: Convergence Through Mechanicity\n\nAbstract: Scoring systems are social systems that function to produce convergence on a singular verdict. Games and institutions often use one particular type: a mechanical scoring systems. A game tells us exactly what gets us points\; a bureaucracy tells us exactly how our productivity will be measured. Strangely\, these mechanical scoring systems often inspire fun and free play in games – but in institutional life\, they drain the life out of everything. Why? Drawing from Lorraine Daston’s work on rules\, I offer a theory of the mechanical. A mechanical procedure is one where the procedures and criteria have been designed so as to be usable by anybody\, to yield consistent results. Mechanical scoring systems perform a valuable social function: they guarantee convergence of evaluations\, from those who have accepted the scoring system. They eliminate the possibility of disagreement among those who have agreed to abide by the scoring rules. To do this\, however\, such scoring systems need to strictly limit the kinds of criteria they can target. In games\, this can help us to become more fluid. But mechanical scoring systems perform a different function in institutions. Mechanical scoring systems are often used to make workers more replaceable. The demand for worker fungibility thus systematically shapes the kinds of targets and goals that can be enshrined in institutions. This opens the door for a kind of hermeneutical feedback loop\, whereby those agents who are willing to sacrifice all else\, in the pursuit of higher mechanical scores\, are rewarded with greater social power\, with they can use to heighten the social power of mechanical scoring systems.

It has been empirically observed that the performance of neural networks scales as power laws with respect to the sizes of the model and training data set. I will discuss a recently proposed random feature model that captures the physics of neural scaling laws\, and its solution in an effective theory framework using large-N field theory methods. The solution reveals a duality that is indicative of a deeper connection between neural networks and field theories.

We will provide a criterion for whether positroid varieties are smooth at certain distinguished points\, and we will show that this information is sufficient to determine smoothness for the entire positroid variety. This will involve looking at combinatorial diagrams called \"affine pipe dreams.\" We can also form a partial order on positroid varieties given by deletion and contraction\, such that there is closure for smooth positroid varieties\, and we will characterize the minimal singular elements in this order. Finally\, we will discuss a couple of connections between the techniques of this work and planar N=4 SYM: the BCFW bridge decomposition and inverse soft factors.

For any compact Kähler manifold X\, the Hodge theorem gives a decomposition of the cohomology of X as the direct sum of complex vector spaces. Such a decomposition can be generalized to the notion of a Hodge structure\, which has an equivalent description in terms of the Hodge filtration. Our goal is to study these variations on Hodge structures by viewing this filtration through the lens of the Grassmannian and flag manifolds. We provide a concrete example where we show that the parameter space for the polarized Hodge structures of a compact Riemann surface of genus q is analytically isomorphic to the Siegel upper half space.

A connecting thread between all these tasks\, and a source of numerous challenges\, is the inherent uncertainty in perceptual data. This dissertation considers how to manage rather than ignore perceptual uncertainty\, enabling the creation of safe\, robust\, and reliable systems that will allow robots to leave the lab and enter the world. This dissertation introduces four novel approaches for perceptual uncertainty quantification. The first is a means of computing geometric uncertainty for radiance field models. Second\, we propose a framework for estimating semantic uncertainty using vision and\, third\, we build off this framework to enable robots to use multiple sensing modalities such as vision and touch to update this semantic uncertainty. Lastly\, we propose a means of propagating uncertainty over Riemannian manifolds with guarantees on numerical accuracy and with applications for robotic state estimation. Combined\, these methods demonstrate a comprehensive means of quantifying uncertainty for robotic perception.

InSAR has been successfully used to generate high-resolution digital elevation models of the Earth’s surface topography\, measure crustal deformation associated with volcanic deformation\, post-seismic and co-seismic deformation\, ground motion associated with landsliding\, and glacial flow velocities. In recent years\, considerable developments have been made towards the study of permafrost freeze thaw and degradation from InSAR observations. In this talk\, I will present several techniques in the fields of InSAR and polarimetric SAR (PolSAR) that can be leveraged to resolve fundamental properties of permafrost and the active layer in periglacial landscapes\, with a focus on permafrost-wildfire interactions and surface hydrology. I will also discuss emerging methods of leveraging nuisance terms (e.g.\, interferometric phase noise\, phase nonclosure) for environmental retrievals of soil moisture\, vegetation canopy water content\, and wildfire burn severity.

This paper examines whether a sustained\, classroom-based media and information literacy intervention can help school children in Bihar\, India\, to become more discerning consumers of public health information. Collaborating with a branch of Bihar's state government\, we developed and fielded a multi-session media literacy RCT across 583 villages\, targeting over 12\,000 students. Unlike previous anti-misinformation interventions\, this project focuses on rural populations\, long-term engagement\, and adolescents aged 13 to 18. Results from intent-to-treat estimates demonstrate that our intervention had significant impacts on a number of counts: treated students showed heightened ability to discern between true and false information. Notably the intervention also changed health preferences\, diminishing reliance on alternative medical approaches and decreasing dependence on untrustworthy sources of news. We are able to detect effects up to 2 months post intervention\, speaking to the strength of the treatment in changing attitudes long-term. These findings hold significant implications for assessing the efficacy of media literacy measures in light of previous studies that often yield null or mixed results. Our intervention demonstrates continued effectiveness among a particularly challenging sample and difficult context.\n \n Sumitra Badrinathan is an assistant professor of political science at American University's School of International Service.

In their first symphonies\, Beethoven and Prokofiev each take the symphony of Mozart and Haydn through some new twists and turns\, both with a sense of humor and playfulness. Shostakovich’s first chamber symphony\, a string orchestra version of his Eighth String Quartet\, was written in three days and dedicated to the victims of fascism and war. As it tells his own story in quotes from several of his previous pieces and by using his own initials as notes\, it’s clear that he was one of them!

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

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621444@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240620T181506 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241116T110200 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241116T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Michelle Hinojosa: Logcabins DESCRIPTION:Stamps Gallery commissioned Michelle Hinojosa (MFA\, 2023) to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the Gallery. Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home\, placemaking\, labor\, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body\, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade\, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley\, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.\nArtist’s bio:\nMichelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist\, educator\, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas\, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting\, bead weaving\, embroidery\, jewelry\, transparent film installations\, painting\, ceramics\, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story\, re-make\, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx\, Chicanx\, Mexican\, and Texican peoples. \n\nRecently\, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan\, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania)\, Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen\, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas\, TX).

This production\, situated in the 1970s with echoes of classic TV shows The Brady Bunch and Bewitched\, emphasizes the darker undercurrents in the familiar tale of Hänsel and Gretel being sent into the forest by their frustrated mother. They gather berries and frolic in the woods\, soon realizing they are lost as darkness descends. In the morning\, Hänsel and Gretel spot an enticing house made of sugary cereal. As they nibble on the house\, a frightening witch appears from within and captures the children\, threatening to fatten Hansel up and use him to make confections. The clever children must keep their wits about them to avoid a fiery fate.\n\nComposed by Engelbert Humperdinck\; libretto by Adelheid Wette \nBased on the fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm\nConductor Kirk Severtson\nDirected by Gregory Keller\n UID:122728-21849576@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/122728 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Dance,Music,Storytelling,Theater LOCATION:Power Center for the Performing Arts CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240823T181702 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241116T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241116T213000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:John Ellis: \"The Pedagogical Writings of Marguerite Long: A Reassessment of Her Impact on the French School of Piano\" DESCRIPTION:This lecture celebrates the work of Dr. John Ellis\, winner of the 2024 Harold Haugh Award which recognizes excellence in private studio teaching at the School of Music\, Theatre & Dance. Ellis is professor of piano at SMTD\, director of Graduate Studies in Piano Pedagogy and administers the Piano Pedagogy Laboratory Program.\n\nSMTD BIO:\nhttps://smtd.umich.edu/profiles/john-ellis/\n\nProf. Ellis will present his research into Marguerite Long\, the most important French female pianist of the 20th century\, who left her stamp on a whole epoch of musical life in Paris. His book on the topic\, *The Pedagogical Writings of Marguerite Long: A Reassessment of Her Impact on the French School of Piano*\, is published by Indiana University Press.\n\nEllis's work presents English translations of the two major contributions of Marguerite Long to the literature of piano pedagogy. These translations of her pedagogical works\, *Le Piano* and *La Petite Méthode de piano*\, provide a window to the old French school of pianism as modernized by Long. *Le Piano* is a remarkable text offering piano playing techniques and pragmatic and philosophical musings and observations about life\, musicians\, careers\, and more. *La Petite Méthode de piano* is a personal manifesto about how to introduce children to music. Both works are treasures revealing Long's lifelong commitment to teaching and they are still stunningly relevant.\n\nIn addition\, Prof. Ellis analyzes each work and puts it in historical context. He places special emphasis on Long's illustrious international career\, her teaching\, her rivalry with Alfred Cortot\, and the impact of sexism on her life and work. Ellis addresses the eclipse of Long's reputation by that of Cortot and fills a gap in the knowledge of Long's place in the history of pedagogical heritage.\n\nThis lecture and demonstration represents Prof. Ellis's longstanding interest in comparative pedagogy with an international perspective.

A moment in New England\, a moment on Earth. With their 2024 release\, Softly Softly\, Paul Wright (cello/vocals) and Tim Harrington (guitar/vocals) reject isolation\; both the universal experience of the early 2020s\, and its sound recording definition where different instruments are recorded separately. Harrington explains\, \"The opposite of isolation in recording is bleed\, where you hear the drums and guitar through the vocal mic because everything is happening in the same room. It's risky because you can't easily change it later. You're stuck with whatever you get. Bleeding is just the perfect word for it. It's scary and it sometimes hurts.\"\n\nAfter the pandemic\, Ben Folds invited the Boston-based duo to Nashville to make his latest album\, \"What Matters Most\" (New West 2023). Following this month-long apprenticeship under Folds\, Tall Heights became focused on records that testify to a specific place and time. They started drawing inspiration from classic Simon and Garfunkel albums like Bookends and Bridge Over Troubled Water. Their focus narrowed to \"something pretty simple actually\,\" Wright explains\, \"to capture a real moment with real people in an actual room.\"\n\nFor 10 days in rural Massachusetts\, the childhood friends captured brand new songs in an old fashioned way. The album maintains their unique vocal blend\, which has earned them nearly half a billion streams\, but it feels more spontaneous and timeless than their previous work. Softly Softly is out everywhere October 18\, 2024.

In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621445@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241117T120003 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241117T111100 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241117T121100 SUMMARY:Other:H2O Sunday Service DESCRIPTION:Come join us for praise and worship with students and alumni from UoM at the Rackham Building (4th floor).

This production\, situated in the 1970s with echoes of classic TV shows The Brady Bunch and Bewitched\, emphasizes the darker undercurrents in the familiar tale of Hänsel and Gretel being sent into the forest by their frustrated mother. They gather berries and frolic in the woods\, soon realizing they are lost as darkness descends. In the morning\, Hänsel and Gretel spot an enticing house made of sugary cereal. As they nibble on the house\, a frightening witch appears from within and captures the children\, threatening to fatten Hansel up and use him to make confections. The clever children must keep their wits about them to avoid a fiery fate.\n\nComposed by Engelbert Humperdinck\; libretto by Adelheid Wette \nBased on the fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm\nConductor Kirk Severtson\nDirected by Gregory Keller\n UID:122729-21849577@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/122729 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Dance,Music,Storytelling,Theater LOCATION:Power Center for the Performing Arts CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241107T171002 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241117T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241117T153000 SUMMARY:Other:Nature Play Pop-Ups DESCRIPTION:Based in Gaffield Children’s Garden at Matthaei Botanical Gardens\, Nature Play Pop-ups are opportunities for children across ages and developmental stages to engage deeply\, based on their own interests\, curiosity\, and developmental stages.

She collects and arranges images\, builds and subtracts\, and uses processes that suit the concepts and gives the pieces a reason for existing as textiles. Simultaneously she strives to make the medium influence the outcome in such a way that cloth and image meld together. Moran uses silkscreen\, shibori\, and stitching to embed images from her daily walks into the fabric. it's important that the work builds slowly\, involving meditative processes that connect her to the cloth and the source of the design.\n\nGallery hours: Monday-Friday\, 9 am to 5pm or by appointment serrag@med.umich.edu UID:124224-21852743@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/124224 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Alumni,Art,Culture,Detroit,Exhibition,Free,Graduate Students,North Campus,Visual Arts LOCATION:North Campus Research Complex Building 18 - Rotunda Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241022T124308 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241118T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241118T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Touch DESCRIPTION: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 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. \n\nDuring 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.\n\nAbout Ericka Lopez\nBorn 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.\n\nEricka 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.

The group’s name\, rummage\, evokes both a materiality and an intellectual practice characteristic of museum studies more broadly. On the one hand\, rummaging has a tactile quality. It gestures to the human role in how objects are placed and misplaced\, organized and disorganized\, thrown into juxtaposition\, and often randomly re-discovered anew by individuals negotiating various value systems associated with objects. It evokes an image of coming to objects of the past with new eyes and curiosity. On the other hand\, rummaging could also be used to describe an intellectual approach. In posing questions about the how and why certain narratives come to be exhibited and interpreted\, we root around historical understandings of heritage and the power dynamics that lead certain narratives to become dominant. This process is guided by curiosity\, a drive to understand\, and a skepticism of ordering systems.  UID:128021-21860065@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/128021 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Sessions LOCATION:Tappan 210 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241003T114739 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241118T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241118T140000 SUMMARY:Other:Trans and Nonbinary Passport Clinic DESCRIPTION:The School of Social Work Office of Global Activities\, U-M Spectrum Center\, and U-M Center for Global and Intercultural Study are collaborating to host a Trans and Nonbinary Passport Clinic.

In actuality\, though\, many members of the higher education community continue to face marginalization and othering within their professional and educational spaces. This session centers around an embodied case study depicting one woman’s reflections on her experiences of higher education that sent a persistent\, systemic message that she didn’t belong. Through session activities\, participants will consider how these messages manifest and why they continue to occur despite the extensive labor of individuals sincerely committed to advancing equity. Together\, they brainstorm possibilities for changes that could increase equity at a systems level. This session is appropriate for faculty\, graduate students\, and academic leaders.\nThis session can be offered in a fully virtual\, synchronous format (90 minutes) or a fully in-person synchronous format (120 minutes).\n**The video performance portion of this session contains strong language. It includes explicit descriptions of racist and classist behaviors and the impact of systemic inequities on individuals and communities.\nRegistration is required at https://myumi.ch/jZeQ5.\nWe want to ensure full and equitable participation in our events.

Motivated by this\, in 1962\, Jan Mycielski and Hugo Steinhaus proposed the Axiom of Determinacy—an axiom for ZF\, based on certain omega-infinite two-player games—which serves as an alternative to the AC that avoids most of its less desirable consequences. In this talk\, we will provide an intuitive understanding of the Axiom of Determinacy and explore some of its consequences\, as well as its incompatibility with the Axiom of Choice.

Recent measurements of the CMB lensing power spectrum are providing precise and competitive cosmological parameter constraints of the standard cosmological model LCDM\, informing the “S8 tension” and further constraining the sum of neutrino masses. SPT-3G is a high-resolution\, high-sensitivity mm-wave camera installed on the 10-m South Pole Telescope\, ideal for measurements of CMB lensing. I will discuss the on-going CMB lensing measurements using SPT-3G data and showcase forecasts of cosmological parameter constraints with CMB lensing alone and combined with SPT-3G primary CMB spectra measurements. I will discuss the impact of extragalactic foregrounds on these measurements and on delensing for BICEP/Keck. I will conclude with field-level modeling of these foregrounds in the context of CMB lensing using generative neural networks.

Naichen has received four best paper recognitions from the Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences (INFORMS)\, including winning the 2024 INFORMS Data Mining Best General Paper Competition.\n\nAbstract: Data is increasingly being collected from distributed and often heterogeneous sources\, such as smartphones\, connected vehicles\, and healthcare devices. While much effort has focused on predictive learning under heterogeneity\, I argue in this talk that predictive modeling\, without untangling the nature of heterogeneity across users\, may lead to significant failures. With this in mind\, I present a descriptive framework called Personalized Principal Component Analysis (PCA) that answers the simple question: What is shared\, and what is unique? Specifically\, we introduce an efficient algorithm to extract identifiable global and local PCs based on distributed manifold gradient descent. The algorithm is proved to converge linearly and output results with statistical errors that almost match the lower bound. Building on this\, I then highlight our research on predictive modeling under heterogeneity and discuss its implications for collaborative machine learning and interoperable Digital Twins.

Colin Leach (he/they) will discuss a transdisciplinary project that uses micro (behavioral experiments\, psychophysiology) and macro (news and social media) empirical approaches to trace the psychological and social dynamics of this sentiment in the U.S.\n\nThe RCGD Seminar Series on the Social Psychology of Systemic Racism meets Mondays from 3:30 to 5 at ISR Thompson 1430. When speaker permission is given\, events will be recorded and posted within a few weeks to YouTube.\n\nThe Social Psychology of Systemic Racism\nWhat are the points of connection between structures and individuals when we think about bias? In the Fall 2024 RCGD Seminar Series “The Social Psychology of Systemic Racism\,” an all-star lineup of behavioral and political psychologists will define what\, in their words\, makes systemic racism systemic\, and how extra-individual levels of analysis could be incorporated in social psychological theories and methods.\n\nGroup Dynamics Seminar Series\nThe Group Dynamics Seminar series is considered one of the longest running seminar series in the social sciences. It has been running uninterruptedly since it was founded by Kurt Lewin in the 1920’s in Berlin. The seminar series runs every semester on a theme chosen by faculty organizer/s who are affiliated with the Research Center for Group Dynamics at the Institute for Social Research. A very important feature of this seminar today is its interdisciplinary nature. Recent themes have included political polarization\, evolution and human behavior\, and cultural psychology\n\nBio\nColin Wayne Leach (B.A. 1989\, M.A. 1991\, Boston University\; Ph.D. 1995\, University of Michigan) is a social and personality psychologist who studies status and morality in identity\, emotion\, and motivation. He is also interested in protest & resistance\; Prejudice\, stereotypes\, ...isms\; Meta-theory\, methods\, and statistics\; and transdisciplinary approaches.\n\nAt Columbia University\, Colin is Professor of Psychology & Africana Studies and Dean of Faculty Diversity & Development at Barnard College\; Graduate Faculty and Senior Research Scientist\, Department of Psychology\, School of Arts & Sciences\; and Member of the Data Science Institute.\n\nIn addition to authoring over 100 journal articles and chapters\, Colin has co-edited the volumes Psychology as Politics (Political Psychology\, 2001)\, Immigrant Life in the U.S. (Routledge\, 2003)\, The Social Life of Emotions (Cambridge\, 2004)\, and Societal Change (Journal of Social & Political Psychology\, 2013). He is an elected fellow of the Society of Experimental Social Psychology and the Society of Personality and Social Psychology and is a 2017 recipient of the Kurt Lewin medal for scientific contribution from the European Association of Social Psychology.

I will describe their local structure\, as well as the geometry of a $P$-ordinary family $C_\pi$\, using the theory of types. Then\, I will introduce a $p$-adic family of Eisenstein series (an Eisenstein measure) that is “compatible” with $C_\pi$\, using an algebraic version of the doubling method. I will conclude by explaining how this Eisenstein measure corresponds to a $p$-adic $L$-function for $C_\pi$ viewed as an element of a $P$-ordinary Hecke algebra. These results generalize the ones obtained by Eischen-Harris-Li-Skinner in the ordinary setting and are from the speaker’s thesis.

Most exact results have been known either for radially symmetric potential or for so-called Hele-Shaw potential\, where the limiting density of the Coulomb gas is uniform over its support. When the potential is not Hele-Shaw type nor radially symmetric\, we expect to observe a new type of singular behaviors. Unfortunately\, in such cases\, there is no known multiple orthogonality that we can use for asymptotic analysis of the planar polynomials. \n\nIn this talk\, we will propose a matrix Riemann-Hilbert problem for some polynomial potential that is not radially symmetric and not Hele-Shaw type. More explicitly we will consider the case when the Laplacian of the potential is |z|^2. This work is a preliminary report of the work by Abril Arenas and by Seong-Mi Seo.\n\nEmail eblackst@umich.edu for the zoom link.

As it turned out\, it was also the last. Although the team went on to publish widely in other fields\, it has not continued to make available its work in the human sciences. This paper explores how language-processing software—explicitly trained to harvest narratives of trauma—was employed in the study to quantify emotional valence. In an atmosphere of rapid social and technological change around 2012\, researchers applied processing software and computational analysis to alter the algorithms delivering manipulated News Feeds to almost 700\,000 unwitting Facebook users. The experiment formed a watershed in creating coercive conditions around social media exposure. I examine how emotional contagion—a pre-existing concept in psychological studies but one that researchers calculated and computed in new ways in 2012—was operationalized and with what consequences.

The moduli space of all quadratic rational maps is isomorphic to C^2\, and we can also understand the space of quadratic polynomials as a special curve within this space in which one critical point is marked as a fixed point. Other natural curves within the moduli space of quadratic rational maps of longstanding interest are the curves in which one critical point is marked as in an n-cycle. In this talk\, we speak about the topology and combinatorics of these curves and their bifurcation locus\, paying particular attention to how structure from the Mandelbrot set (\"matings\" and \"captures\") can shed light on questions about the irreducibility of these curves.

There’s a different vibe onstage from what comes through in our recordings. There’s a difference in every show as well\, you never know what you’re going to get.”\n\nYarn’s ability to persevere ought to come as no great surprise\, especially for a band that spent two years honing their chops during a Monday night residency at the famed Kenny’s Castaway in New York’s Greenwich Village. In effect\, it allowed them to rehearse onstage\, mostly in front of audiences that often ranged in size from five to a hundred people on any given night. 10 studio albums followed. The band then took to the road\, playing upwards of 170 shows a year at any number of prestigious venues. They have landed on the Grammy ballot 4 times\, garnered nods from the Americana Music Association\, placed top five on both Radio and Records and the AMA album charts\, been streamed millions of times on Spotify\, and accorded the “Download of the Day” from Rolling Stone. Shine the Light On found shared songwriting credits with John Oates (the Oates of Hall & Oates fame)\, and when audiences expressed their admiration\, it brought the band a populist cult following of diehard devotees\, popularly known as “the Yarmy.”  \n\nIt’s proof positive that the Brooklyn and Raleigh based band have made their mark\, and in dealing with their emotions\, scars and circumstances\, they find themselves in a position to share those experiences with others who have juggled similar sentiments.

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. \n\nDuring 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.\n\nAbout Ericka Lopez\nBorn 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.\n\nEricka 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.

My Ancestor: An Arabian Princess from Zanzibar DESCRIPTION:Sayyida Salme\, born a princess of Oman and Zanzibar\, had a remarkable life in a remarkable time. Her father was the sultan\, and her mother was a Circassian concubine. Perhaps best known for her memoirs\, as the first Arab woman to publish a book\, she offered a fascinating view of 19th-century Oman and Zanzibar\, harem life\, colonial powers\, international trade\, East African slavery\, and more. She originally wrote in German after falling in love with a German merchant\, fleeing Zanzibar\, becoming a Christian\, starting a family with her husband in Hamburg\, and then staying in Germany to raise her children even after he tragically died. Her later manuscript\, *Letters to the Homeland*\, describes her difficult early years in Germany. Both accounts offer perspectives and insights about East and West—Orient and Occident—cultures that still resonate today. Andrea Emily Stumpf\, her great-great-granddaughter\, recently published new translations of both writings\, partly to rescue her voice from outdated and inaccurate translations. This year marks the centennial of Sayyida Salme’s death\, giving us an added reason to consider her complex life and appreciate her efforts to share her unique and authentic perspective.\n\nAndrea Emily Stumpf is an award-winning author and a lawyer who specializes in structuring international partnerships. She is also the great-great-granddaughter of Sayyida Salme\, also known as Emily Ruete\, an Omani princess who grew up on the island of Zanzibar and was the first Arab woman to publish a book. With new English translations of her ancestor’s writings\, Stumpf is excited to make Sayyida Salme’s inspiring story—from Zanzibar to Germany—and her remarkable insights on East and West more widely available today. \nhttp://www.sayyidasalme.com\nhttp://www.structuredpartnerships.com\n\nRegister and attend over Zoom: https://myumi.ch/kZQpr UID:128551-21861164@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/128551 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:center for middle eastern and north african studies,cmenas,Discussion,Lecture LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20251016T100227 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241119T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241119T130000 SUMMARY:Well-being:MHealthy Winter Market at NCRC DESCRIPTION:Stop by an MHealthy Winter Market at NCRC\, a multi-vendor market celebrating locally-made\, locally-produced foods and products.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621446@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240815T110653 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241119T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241119T130000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Macro Seminar: Tuesday\, November 19 DESCRIPTION:-- UID:124304-21852869@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/124304 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,Macroeconomics,seminar LOCATION:Lorch Hall - 201 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241119T112030 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241119T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241119T140000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CommuniTea with OAMI DESCRIPTION:Weekly gathering for students\, staff\, and faculty to build community with the Trotter Team and discuss the week’s events. Organizations and units are encouraged to collaborate and offer light refreshments or share tea practices that center their cultural practices.

Given the role of host-associated microbiomes in conferring resilience to the host\, understanding how these stressors impact microbe-microbe and microbe-host interactions is essential. Cyanobacteria blooms\, formed by rising temperatures and nutrient runoff\, can reduce microbial diversity through competitive exclusion\, altering microbial networks both internal and external to the host. Parasites are another potential source of dysbiosis in the host-associated microbiome. Successful infections can further lower host fitness\, potentially independent of virulence\, by disrupting the microbiome and thus losing key metabolic pathways related to nutrient acquisition and the formation of secondary metabolites. To address the extent to which both stressors reassemble microbiomes and environmental microbial communities\, I will address three questions that 1) distinguish between parasite virulence and microbiome dysbiosis impacts on host fitness\, 2) test for potential additive or synergistic effects of cyanobacteria and parasites in reducing host fitness as mediated through the host-associated microbiome\, and 3) investigate microbiome re-assemblage under both stressors in the natural environment.\n\nJoin Remotely: https://umich.zoom.us/j/94285293918\nMeeting ID: 942 8529 3918\nPasscode: tuesem UID:129085-21862146@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/129085 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:biodiversity,Biology,Biosciences,department of ecology and evolutionary biology,Discussion,Ecology,Ecology & Biology,Ecology And Evolutionary Biology,ecosystem,eeb,Environment,evolution,evolutionary biology,Free,Graduate,Graduate School,Graduate Students,Herbarium,Lecture,Life Science,Museum,Museum - Herbarium,Museum - Zoology,Museum Of Zoology,Natural Sciences,Rackham,Research,Science,scientists,seminar LOCATION:Biological Sciences Building - 1010 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240913T115134 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241119T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241119T125000 SUMMARY:Meeting:LingAMod DESCRIPTION:The language across modalities discussion group provides a space for students\, faculty\, and community members to discuss research that spans the modes of human communication -- speech\, sign\, gesture\, and more.

By linking membership in interprovincial chambers of commerce (CoCs) to government subsidies\, we show that chamber firms receive significantly more subsidies than non-members\, driven by political connections facilitated by the chambers. The findings highlight the role of business associations as brokers\, providing access to powerful officials and demonstrating the exchange of selective benefits for political favor.\n \nZeren Li is an Assistant Professor at the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy\, National University of Singapore.

The news of recalls and re-certifications in the automotive and aerospace industries is an eloquent testimony to the difficulty of system design. Many voices from government agencies\, industry\, and academia have thus called for the development of theoretical and practical tools to provide assurance of the correctness of our complex systems. Assume-guarantee contracts provide a theoretical and methodological framework to compositionally design systems with rigorous guarantees. In this talk\, we will introduce contracts and their algebraic operations through case studies in space mission design and autonomous driving that show where current system design methodologies struggle. We will also introduce Pacti\, a software package that enables engineers to carry out system-level design using contracts.\n---\nAbout the speaker: Inigo Incer is an Assistant Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Michigan\, where he leads the Complex Engineering Systems Laboratory. He obtained his PhD in Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences from UC Berkeley in 2022 and was subsequently a postdoctoral researcher at Caltech. He is interested in all aspects of cyber-physical systems\, emphasizing formal methods and AI that support their compositional design and analysis. Before pursuing a PhD\, Inigo was an IC designer in Austin. His work has been supported by the ASEE/NSF eFellows program and the UC Berkeley Chancellor's Fellowship.

Yet\, the nature of the various CSC mechanisms and their correlation with underlying crystal symmetries remain unsettled. For this talk\, I will first discuss how current-induced magnetization in MoTe2 can manifest an extremely large out-of-plane anomalous Hall effect that is driven by asymmetric scattering. I will then present our recent results using local spin potentiometric measurements to directly probe the spatially dependent nonequilibrium spin accumulation in MoTe2 across various sample locations and thicknesses. We uncover an abundance of unconventional spin polarizations that develop uniquely in the sample bulk and edges with decreasing thickness. Using ab initio calculations\, we can construct a unified understanding of all the observed CSC components in relation to the material dimensionality and stacking arrangement. Our findings both illuminate previous CSC results on MoTe2 and have important consequences for the design of future devices utilizing this 2D topological material.

Despite significant advancements in various practical aspects\, fundamental theoretical questions about the eigenvalue problem remain poorly understood.\nIn this talk\, I will present joint work with Jess Banks\, Archit Kulkarni\, and Nikhil Srivastava\, in which we provide nearly optimal rigorous guarantees\, on all inputs\, for the most widely used diagonalization algorithm: the shifted QR algorithm. Similar results were established by Wilkinson in 1968 and Dekker and Traub in 1971 for Hermitian matrices\; however\, despite sustained interest and several attempts\, the non-Hermitian case remained elusive for the last five decades.

Questions (and court cases) surrounding the distribution and possession of what became popularly known as chǒksan (enemy property) would\, in fact\, last for decades. This talk follows the property trail in South Korean literature published from the mid-1940s through the mid-1950s. Focusing on work by Ch’ae Mansik and Ch’oe Chǒnghŭi\, Professor Hughes shows how chŏksan enters into implicit conversation with two other terms central to post-1945 property transfer\, kongsan (communal property) and yŏksan (the property of communist sympathizers). A politics of suspicion enters the dispensation of enemy property\, as colonial rule gives way to military occupation\, national division\, and war. For Ch’ae Mansik and Ch’oe Chǒnghŭi\, the question of colonial remains and their repurposing exceeds monetary value\, involving a gendered ethics of postcolonial belonging that looks askance at the entrance of the peninsula into first- and second-world bifurcations.\n \nTheodore Hughes is Korea Foundation Professor of Korean Studies in the Humanities at Columbia University. He is the author of Literature and Film in Cold War South Korea: Freedom’s Frontier (Columbia University Press\, 2012\; Korean translation\, Somyong Press\, 2014)\, which was awarded the Association for Asian Studies James B. Palais Book Prize. He is the co-editor of Intermedial Aesthetics: Korean Literature\, Film\, and Art (special issue of the Journal of Korean Studies\, 2015) and Rat Fire: Korean Stories from the Japanese Empire (Cornell East Asia Series\, 2013)\, the latter a finalist for the Daesan Literary Prize for Translation. He is the former Director of the Center for Korean Research at Columbia and former Editor of the Journal of Korean Studies. His book The Limitless War: Death and Dying in Korea is under contract (Columbia University Press).\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at ncks.info@umich.edu.

With its sonic palette encompassing everything from fuzzed-out guitars and industrial-leaning beats to gilded pedal steel and Kiah’s exquisitely graceful banjo work\, Still + Bright fully affirms her as an artist of both daring originality and uncompromising depth.\n\nOn Wary + Strange\, Kiah offered up a collection of spellbinding songs detailing her experience with grief and trauma and alienation\, each illuminating the extraordinary impact of her songwriting. An electrifying showcase for her singular musicality and soul-stirring voice\, Kiah’s Rounder Records debut soon found many leading critics hailing her as a formidable new talent\, adding to a list of accolades that includes earning a Grammy nomination for her powerhouse anthem “Black Myself.”\n\nWhile Still + Bright undoubtedly finds Kiah pushing into new emotional and musical terrain\, the album also makes for a vital new addition to a body of work largely dedicated to exploring the struggle and joy of true self-discovery. “With all of my music\, I’d love to leave people with the feeling that it’s okay to go off the beaten path and to structure your life in a way that feels right to you\,” says Kiah. “And just like with the last record\, I hope that these songs can help people out if they’re going through a difficult time. That’s what I always hope for more than anything: for my music to continue to be a part of the healing process for anyone who might need it.” UID:124559-21853200@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/124559 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Ark,Mutotix LOCATION:ARK Reserved CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241111T121641 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241119T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241119T213000 SUMMARY:Performance:Roel Arazo\, euphonium DESCRIPTION:Undergraduate student Roel Arazo performs a recital.

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

Moran uses silkscreen\, shibori\, and stitching to embed images from her daily walks into the fabric. it's important that the work builds slowly\, involving meditative processes that connect her to the cloth and the source of the design.\n\nGallery hours: Monday-Friday\, 9 am to 5pm or by appointment serrag@med.umich.edu UID:124224-21852745@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/124224 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Alumni,Art,Culture,Detroit,Exhibition,Free,Graduate Students,North Campus,Visual Arts LOCATION:North Campus Research Complex Building 18 - Rotunda Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241022T124308 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241120T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241120T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Touch DESCRIPTION: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 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. \n\nDuring 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.\n\nAbout Ericka Lopez\nBorn 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.\n\nEricka 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.

We have thus far focused in the nucleus on creating kilobase-resolution maps of higher-order folding of the chromatin fiber and understanding how classic epigenetic modifications work through long-range connections to govern genome function in neurodevelopment. We have developed and applied new molecular and computational technologies to elucidate chromatin folding patterns at kilobase-resolution genome-wide\, thus discovering that long-range looping interactions in cis and inter-chromosomal interactions in trans change substantially during neural lineage commitment\, somatic cell reprogramming\, activation of post-mitotic neural circuits\, and in neurological disorders. We have demonstrated that cohesin-mediated loops are necessary for the establishment of new gene expression programs in post-mitotic neurons\, including the upregulation of genes encoding axon guidance\, dendritic spine morphology\, and synaptic plasticity during neuron maturation in vivo as well as activity-dependent transcription during neural stimulation in vitro. We have also identified cohesin-mediated loops anchored by divergently-oriented CTCF binding sites that are necessary and sufficient for the firing efficiency and localization of human replication origins during S phase re-entry after mitosis. Using fragile X syndrome as a natural perturbation\, we have uncovered BREACHes (Beacons of Repeat Expansion Anchored by Contacting Heterochromatin) - rare inter-chromosomal interactions connecting heterochromatinized synaptic genes susceptible to repeat instability\, thus providing early insight into the genome’s structure-function relationship. Here\, I will present new unpublished data describing 3D genome miswiring in a human neuron model with rare familial Alzheimer’s mutations as well as the functional link among loops and activity-dependent gene expression during neural circuit activation in vitro and in vivo. The long-term goal of the Cremins lab is to elucidate how the genome’s structure-function relationship influences synaptic plasticity and neurophysiology during memory encoding and consolidation and how this goes awry in intractable neurological disorders. \n\nBio:\n\nJennifer Phillips-Cremins\, Ph.D. is an Associate Professor and Deans' Faculty Fellow in Engineering and Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania with primary appointments in the Departments of Genetics and Bioengineering.

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

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621447@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240620T181506 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241120T110200 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241120T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Michelle Hinojosa: Logcabins DESCRIPTION:Stamps Gallery commissioned Michelle Hinojosa (MFA\, 2023) to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the Gallery. Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home\, placemaking\, labor\, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body\, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade\, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley\, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.\nArtist’s bio:\nMichelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist\, educator\, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas\, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting\, bead weaving\, embroidery\, jewelry\, transparent film installations\, painting\, ceramics\, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story\, re-make\, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx\, Chicanx\, Mexican\, and Texican peoples. \n\nRecently\, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan\, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania)\, Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen\, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas\, TX).

One motivation for this model is to describe black holes in Einstein gravity in higher dimensions. Indeed\, the equations of this model generalize an uncontrolled truncation of the BFSS model\, but correctly describe the large N limit of our model. The entropy at low energies has a non-trivial scaling with temperature\, with an exponent that we calculate\, and we will discuss additional unusual low temperature features in this model. We study the possibility of a spin glass phase which has been suggested in the past in a similar context.

Political Anxieties in the Caucasus: the Georgian National Narrative Between War and Peace DESCRIPTION:Against the backdrop of Russian aggression in Ukraine and the renewed conflict in Nagorno-Karabakh\, anxiety about Georgia’s fate and its place in the region has taken over the quotidian life of ordinary people. Veiled as peace-preservation efforts\, Georgia’s ruling party has made a sweeping turn away from the country’s European course towards a Russian-style authoritarian rule. The waves of mass protests that surged in response to the government’s actions are part of the broader charged atmosphere in which national anxiety from being a small country shapes not only political rhetoric\, but the sense of ordinary life in Georgia. In this lecture\, Batiashvili explores the historical and cultural antecedents of the anxiety rooted in what Timothy Snyder calls the “deep narratives” of the region. Based on the ethnographic studies among politically active youth\, ethnic Armenians in Tbilisi\, and the community of Caucasian highlanders\, Batiashvili examines different facets of political and cultural anxiety that have prevailed in the Caucasus since the collapse of the Soviet Union.\n \n Nutsa Batiashvili is Professor of Anthropology\, Dean of the Graduate School\, and Director of the “Memory and Anxiety Research Lab” at the Free University of Tbilisi. She obtained her PhD in Anthropology from Washington University in St Louis\, and her MA and BA in Psychology from Tbilisi State University. Her current research focuses on the Caucasian Highlanders and ethnic Armenians in Tbilisi. Her collaborative research projects on \"The Anthropology of Anxiety\" and \"Memory and Anxiety\" have been funded by the Wenner-Gren Foundation\, James McDonnell Foundation\, Templeton Foundation\, and Georgian National Science Foundation. Her book \"The Bivocal Nation: Memory and Identity on the Edge of Empire\" (Palgrave Macmillan\, 2018) is about a divided nation and polarized notions of nationhood. Her second book\, \"The Anthropology of Anxiety in a Small Country\" (in progress)\, interrogates anxiety as a collective and political phenomenon based on ethnographic data gathered over more than ten years.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu.

Their unique capability to produce a highly reactive environment at moderate gas temperatures enables several emerging applications with the potential to contribute to health care and a sustainable future. Low temperature plasmas offer fertile ground for many interesting often multi-disciplinary fundamental studies with direct societal benefit. We will report on several fundamental case studies of interactions of plasmas with liquids\, bacteria\, virus and catalysts in the context of decontamination\, water treatment\, materials synthesis and chemical conversion. The case studies often involve a detailed comparison between diagnostics and modeling which allowed us to uniquely identify mechanisms and rate limiting steps. While these studies have often been conducted in highly controlled environments and with canonical reactor setups\, such studies provide insights that are critical for process development and might open the path towards a model of science driving technology development.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nPeter Bruggeman is a Distinguished McKnight University Professor and the Ernst Eckert Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Minnesota. His research is focused on low temperature plasma science and engineering with applications in health and sustainability. He also serves as the Director of Graduate Studies of Mechanical Engineering and the Director of the High Temperature and Plasma Laboratory. Peter was an Assistant Professor of Applied Physics at the Eindhoven University of Technology\, the Netherlands\, from 2009 until he joined the University of Minnesota in 2013. He serves as an editorial board member of several journals\, served on the National Academies Decadal Study of Plasma Science (Plasma 2020) committee\, and co-edited the 2017 and 2022 Plasma Roadmap contributing to shape research directions for the field of low temperature plasma.\n\nThe seminar will be conducted both in person and on Zoom.

DESCRIPTION:With the results of the 2024 presidential election\, it is clear that the majority of Latino men turned away from the Democratic party’s candidate to vote for the Republican this cycle. Not only has the media been consumed with understanding what happened\, countless news reports offer shock\, even disgust\, at a voting segment presumed to be an essential part of the Democratic base. How could these men not have understood “the assignment”? While the election results may have shocked observers around the world\, winning a US election with the support of Latino voters is not new. It is a phenomenon that has been growing in ebbs and flows over the last twenty years since George W. Bush received 40 percent of the Latino vote to win the presidency in 2004. Join us for an informal conversation with Dr. Lorena Chambers about Latino voting trends in the 2024 election and their historical antecedents.\n\nA scholar of cultural\, gender\, and Latina/o history\, Dr. Lorena Chambers is a postdoctoral research fellow with the Inclusive History Project at the University of Michigan and is affiliated with the Department of History\, where she is writing a manuscript based on her dissertation: “From Statecraft to Stagecraft: The Politics of Peddling ‘Mexicanidad’ in US Culture\, 1886-1906.” Her second book project\, premised on oral histories\, primary sources\, and her professional work experience\, chronicles the history of Latino voter outreach of the Democratic establishment from 2000 through the 2024 presidential election. She is one of two women\, and the only Latina\, to have produced broadcast commercials for a US presidential campaign.

Woytinsky Lecture - Affirmative Action: Logic\, Measurement\, and Evidence DESCRIPTION:Using traditional American\, race-conscious university admissions as the example\, this paper considers the logic that underpins economists' and statisticians' analysis of affirmative action. The logic includes sufficient statistics\, statistical discrimination\, and comparisons of distributions. I explain how to measure rigorously the extent of affirmative action that is being practiced. Finally\, I analyze numerous race-blind alternatives to race-conscious affirmative action\, including plans based on historic differences\, plans based on socioeconomic data\, plans based on secondary school data\, plans based on precise geography\, and plans that combine all of the aforementioned approaches. I show the extent to which each alternative sacrifices the merit of a university's admitted class in order to accommodate race-blindness.

While doing so\, Butler examines how this phantasm relates to today’s “myriad acts of cancellation\, pathologization\, criminalization\, and delegitimation . . . seeking to destroy freedoms and powers that social movements on the Left have struggled for decades to establish” (24). The book is a timely and necessary investigation into the weaponization of “gender” as a phantasm invoked by those calling “for the elimination of gender education\, the censorship of texts concerned with gender\, and the disenfranchisement or criminalization of transgender or genderqueer people” (36).\n\n--------------------------------------------\n\nNational Bestseller. Named a Best Book of 2024 (so far) by NPR\, Harper’s Bazaar\, W\, and Esquire\, and a Most Anticipated Book of 2024 by The New York Times\, The Washington Post\, Time\, Los Angeles Times\, Elle\, Cosmopolitan\, Kirkus\, Literary Hub\, Autostraddle\, The Millions\, Electric Literature\, and them.\n\n“A profoundly urgent intervention.” —Naomi Klein\n\n“A timely must-read for anyone actively invested in reimagining collective futurity.” —Claudia Rankine\n\nFrom a global icon\, a bold\, essential account of how a fear of gender is fueling reactionary politics around the world.\n\nJudith Butler\, the groundbreaking thinker whose iconic book Gender Trouble redefined how we think about gender and sexuality\, confronts the attacks on “gender” that have become central to right-wing movements today. Global networks have formed “anti–gender ideology movements” that are dedicated to circulating a fantasy that gender is a dangerous\, perhaps diabolical\, threat to families\, local cultures\, civilization—and even “man” himself. Inflamed by the rhetoric of public figures\, this movement has sought to nullify reproductive justice\, undermine protections against sexual and gender violence\, and strip trans and queer people of their rights to pursue a life without fear of violence.\n\nThe aim of Who’s Afraid of Gender? is not to offer a new theory of gender but to examine how “gender” has become a phantasm for emerging authoritarian regimes\, fascist formations\, and trans-exclusionary feminists. In their vital\, courageous new book\, Butler illuminates the concrete ways that this phantasm of “gender” collects and displaces anxieties and fears of destruction. Operating in tandem with deceptive accounts of “critical race theory” and xenophobic panics about migration\, the anti-gender movement demonizes struggles for equality\, fuels aggressive nationalism\, and leaves millions of people vulnerable to subjugation.\n\nAn essential intervention into one of the most fraught issues of our moment\, Who’s Afraid of Gender? is a bold call to refuse the alliance with authoritarian movements and to make a broad coalition with all those whose struggle for equality is linked with fighting injustice. Imagining new possibilities for both freedom and solidarity\, Butler offers us a hopeful work of social and political analysis that is both timely and timeless—a book whose verve and rigor only they could deliver.

Since expanders are of great interest in mathematics and computer science\, Friedman's paper (which is ~100 pages long) has attracted a lot of attention in the last two decades and more efficient proofs of his result (which yield vast generalizations) have been found. However\, all the approaches to Friedman's theorem and its extensions relied on very delicate and sophisticated combinatorial considerations\, making it hard to apply those ideas to other settings of interest.\n\nIn this talk I will discuss a fundamentally new (analytic) approach to Friedman's theorem which yields an elementary proof that can be written in just a few pages. Our approach also allows us to establish strong convergence (i.e. sharp norm estimates) for much more general models of tuples of random matrices (random regular graphs corresponding to the particular case of adding independent random permutations). These results can be used to show that certain infinite objects admit very strong finite dimensional approximations\, which has important implications in operator algebras\, spectral geometry\, and differential geometry.\n\nThis is joint work with Chi-Fang Chen\, Joel Tropp\, and Ramon van Handel.

Join us for an informal conversation with Professors John Whittier-Ferguson and Andrea Zemgulys about Woolf\, her novel\, and its historical context. Light refreshments will be served.\n\n “In the middle of my party\, here's death\" Clarissa Dalloway thinks to herself\, as she hears about the suicide of a veteran that occurred not long before her party began. That veteran's story has unfolded in Woolf's novel in parallel with the story of Clarissa Dalloway's day of preparations for her gala. One of Woolf''s urgent questions in Mrs. Dalloway is whether it's possible to bring the \"home front\" into some kind of equilibrium or proportion with the \"war front\" and how (if?) that balance might be struck. This is not only a problem for the millions of veterans and bereaved family members moving through the streets of London (and all the cities and towns of Europe) after 1918\; it's also an aesthetic problem for Woolf the novelist. Among other topics we may cover in our conversation will be the challenges Woolf faced in writing this deeply moving and startlingly unusual war novel and the uses she made of the war in her work.\n\nThis event is in conjunction with the exhibit Mrs. Dalloway and WWI: Home Front and War Front\, on display in the Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room until Dec. 13th.

Collins Returns to the Ford School DESCRIPTION:Join Boston Fed President & CEO Susan M. Collins\, our former Ford School dean\, for a conversation about monetary policy\, the breadth of the Federal Reserve's work\, and her career path.\n\nSpeaker Bio:\n\nSusan M. Collins is president and CEO of the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston\, which is part of the U.S. central bank.

DESCRIPTION:Entropy theory for group actions has been extended beyond the case of amenable groups\, with key insights and results initiated by Lewis Bowen and Brandon Seward. We will briefly discuss and put in context some of their definitions\, and then proceed to consider negatively curved groups. We will explain a Shannon-Macmillan-Breiman theorem for pointwise convergence of information functions along (almost all almost-) geodesics in the group. We will then define “orbital entropy” using the limits in the SMB theorem\, and using an important inequality due to Seward\, show that it coincides with Rokhlin entropy. \n\n Based on joint work with F.

This property is known in the literature as backward propagation of chaos. Afterwards\, it will be provided the suitable framework for the stability of the aforementioned property to hold. In other words\, assuming a sequence of mean-field systems of BSDEs which propagate chaos\, then their solutions\, as the multitude of the system equations grows to infinity\, approximates an IID sequence of solutions of the limiting McKean–Vlasov BSDE. The generality of the framework allows to incorporate either discrete-time or continuous-time approximating mean-field BSDE systems.
