SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Prison\, a Prisoner\, and a Prison Guard
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a multimedia exploration of the impact of prisons on countries and communities across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region through the lens of “prison art.” The exhibit delves into the dynamic interplay between incarceration and creative expression to make sense of carceral systems.\n\nBy presenting prison art from various countries in the MENA region\, including Algeria\, Egypt\, Iran\, Iraq\, Lebanon\, Palestine\, Sudan\, Syria\, and Yemen\, this exhibit unfolds as a “journey” into the prison system and demonstrates the ways in which art can be a tool of expression and reconciliation for survivors\, detainees’ families\, and society at large. It promotes drawing parallels between the prison experience in the region and worldwide\, highlights the intentionality of carceral systems\, and expands the conversation to include prison-impacted communities. Viewers are invited to navigate the cross-generational\, human experiences of imprisonment often obscured behind prison walls and within individuals.\n\nCurated by Sumaya Tabbah and Susan Aboeid of The Ḥafathah Collective\, this traveling exhibit was organized by U-M Students Organize for Syria (SOS) in partnership with U-M Library and with support from the U-M Arts Initiative.\n\nPlan to attend the related discussion\, \"Art\, Justice\, and Carcerality: The Role of Creative Expression in the Pursuit of Justice\,\" on February 6.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World
DESCRIPTION:The exhibit \"Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World: Interracial Identity in the U.S. and Around the World — What Research and Mixed Race People Tell Us\" is an exploration into the library's collections about the diversity of mixed race heritage. Through research\, narratives\, demographic data\, and a variety of visual and published materials\, explore multifaceted aspects of mixed race heritage with insights from many perspectives.\n\nThe 2020 U.S. Census illuminated a 276 percent increase in individuals who identify as \"two or more races\" since 2010. In recognition of the growing numbers of mixed race-identifying people at the University of Michigan\, throughout the country\, and across the globe\, we're excited to unveil this new exhibit — a unique exploration of changing demographics and intersectional identities.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CAS Workshop. 14th Annual International Graduate Student Workshop in Armenian Studies: “The Archive in Theory and Practice in Armenian Studies”
DESCRIPTION:The Center for Armenian Studies’ 14th Annual International Graduate Student Workshop brings together emerging scholars from diverse disciplines to critically engage with the concept of the archive in Armenian Studies. While archival theory often conceptualizes archives as repositories of collective memory\, history\, or knowledge\, this workshop explores both institutional and non-traditional archives\, questioning how they are formed\, preserved\, and accessed. Through an interdisciplinary lens\, participants will examine the role of archives in shaping Armenian history\, cultural identity\, and scholarship\, as well as the limitations and biases inherent in archival practices. By addressing the challenges of archival silences\, displacement\, and the role of digital tools in preservation\, this workshop aims to foster new approaches to archival research.\n\nThe panels will cover a wide range of topics\, including new methods in access and digitization\, materiality and contact within the archive\, the role of state and counter-archives\, and local communities’ preservation practices. Participants will engage with case studies on liturgical hymn organization\, handwritten text recognition\, and digital community archiving\, among other innovative research projects. Additionally\, a special conversation with personal archivist Anahit Toumajan will offer insights into alternative archival practices outside institutional settings. A guided tour of the University of Michigan’s Armenian special collections will provide hands-on engagement with rare books and manuscripts\, further enriching the discussion on archival methodologies and resources.\n\nThe workshop will culminate in a keynote lecture by Dr. Elyse Semerdjian\, whose research on \"embodied archives\" offers a feminist critique of archival practice in Armenian Studies. Her work examines how physical and material remnants\, such as scars and tattooed texts\, function as historical records\, challenging conventional notions of archival preservation. By bringing together scholars\, archivists\, and practitioners\, this workshop seeks to advance critical conversations about the past\, present\, and future of archives in Armenian Studies\, fostering a more nuanced understanding of how history is documented\, remembered\, and reinterpreted.\n\n=========================\nDAY 1 — Friday: April 4\, 2025\n=========================\n\n9:00-9:30 AM — Introductory Remarks: Emma Avagyan (Middle East Studies)\, Nazelie Doghramadjian (Information)\, Allison Grenda (History of Art)\, Gottfried Hagen (Middle East Studies)\n\n9:30-11:00 AM — Panel 1: New Methods in Access\, Preservation\, and Digitization of Armenian Heritage\nDiscussant: Bogdan Pavlish\, University of Michigan\n● Vardan Sargsyan\, University of Michigan. “Unlocking the Sharaknots’: A New Approach to Organizing Armenian Liturgical Hymns”\n● Chahan Vidal-Gòrene\, Calfa\, École Nationale des Chartes-PSL. “A Case Study on the Application of Handwritten Text Recognition to Mekhitarist Archives”\n\n11:00-11:15 AM — Break\n\n11:15 AM-12:45 PM — Panel 2: Beyond Text: Materiality and Contact within the Archive\nDiscussant: Christiane Gruber\, University of Michigan\n● Anahit Gasparyan\, Tufts University. “Reimagining Access to Armenian Sources: The Value of Facsimiles in Art Historical Research”\n● Tsovinar Kuiumchian\, University of Oxford. “‘My house is full of ghosts’: Textile Archive as a Transgenerational Contact Zone”\n\n12:45-2:00 PM — Lunch for Workshop Participants\n\n2:00-3:00 PM — Panel 3: Conversation with Mrs. Anahit Toumajan\, Armenian Language Teacher & Personal Archivist\nModerators: Nazelie Doghramadjian\, University of Michigan\; Michael Pifer\, University of Michigan\n● Anahit Toumajan\, who is an Armenian language teacher and personal archivist in the Armenian community here in Michigan\, will discuss her work preserving and arranging Mihran Toumajan’s archive. Mihran\, born in 1890\, was one of the five pupils of Gomidas and went on to become a famous composer and musician himself. Throughout his life\, he kept detailed correspondence with his family\, friends\, and fellow pupils. Through his letters and journals\, we learn more about his childhood\, his family’s purchase of his first piano\, his lessons with Gomidas\, and well as his capture and exile during the Armenian Genocide. In conversation with PhD student Nazelie Doghramadjian and Marie Manoogian Professor of Armenian Language and Literature Michael Pifer\, Anahit Toumajan will discuss her work on this invaluable archive in her home\, and how her work may be different from institutional archiving. She will also discuss some special materials within the archive that are full of emotion\, personality\, and history.\n\n3:00-3:30 PM — Break\n\n3:30 PM - 4:45 PM — Library and Special Collections Tour\nLed by U-M Librarians Brendan Nieubuurt\, Armine Kirakosyan\, and Beth Snyder [for workshop participants only]\n● The University of Michigan's Hatcher Graduate Library and Special Collections Research Center is a gem on our campus and for the Center for Armenian Studies.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich
DESCRIPTION:View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses\, which\, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization\, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship. Features such as exquisite typeface design\, letterpress printing\, handmade paper\, traditional illustration techniques like woodcut and engraving\, and the inclusion of original art by renowned artists highlight the presses' dedication to artistry and detail.\n\nThe display opens with an edition of \"The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer\,\" published in 1896 by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press\, a pivotal press that greatly influenced the development of the private press movement as a means of preserving and revitalizing the fine printing and art traditions of the past. Additionally\, the exhibit includes some examples of artist’s proofs\, offering a glimpse into the intricate creative process behind these exceptional works.\n\nThese books are on loan from the collection of Bill Heidrich\, a long-time supporter of the University of Michigan Library.

SUMMARY:Other:Leaves Under the Lens
DESCRIPTION:The leaf surface is a dynamic landscape where tiny\, specialized structures help plants interact with the world around them. Let’s bring this world into view! Join us for an exhibit that highlights the complex and often beautiful anatomy of leaves from the Matthaei collection. Plants throughout the conservatory will be paired with microscope photographs and micro-CT scans that illustrate the otherwise invisible structures that protect leaves from chewing insects\, absorb (or repel!) water\, and even recruit “bodyguards”. You won’t look at leaves the same way again! \n\nThis project is a collaboration between MBGNA and the Weber and Vasconcelos labs in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\, led by PhD student Rosemary Glos.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Saturday Morning Physics | Organic Optical Materials: From Solar Cells to Light-Emitting Diodes
DESCRIPTION:Versatile organic optical materials are widely used\, for example\, in OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) TVs. These materials\, which convert electricity to light and vice-versa\, continue to improve\, but questions remain concerning electron and energy transport processes. Understanding ultra-fast (femtosecond) and small-scale (nanometer) processes in these systems is crucial for improving performance in optical and electronic applications.  In this presentation\, Professor Goodson will describe the results of studies of light-matter interactions in organic materials using absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy and microscopy to investigate energy transport and its importance to electronic devices we rely on daily.\n\nJoin us in person or via live stream: https://myumi.ch/ErXD3\n\nMore information about the Saturday Morning Physics Lecture Series is available on our website: https://myumi.ch/9gmgn

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Welcome. Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle. Gather to feel full\, to be moved and inspired by all the possible imaginations of what is yet to come.\n \nCurated by Félix Zamora Gómez Irving Stenn\, Jr. Fellow in Public Humanities & Museum Pedagogy\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism
DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n

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).

SUMMARY:Performance:Marcel\, Rami\, and Sary Khalife: Legacy
DESCRIPTION:The legendary Lebanese composer\, singer\, and oud master Marcel Khalife returns to Ann Arbor for the first time in 20 years\, joined by his son\, virtuoso pianist Rami Khalife\, and his nephew\, cellist Sary Khalife\, in a program that underscores his family’s incredible musical legacy. Revered as a cultural icon in the Arab World and beyond\, Marcel Khalife is deeply attached to the text of great contemporary Arab poets and is an innovator in Arab music who draws upon traditional forms and blends Western elements to create an evocative sound that has captivated audiences around the world. His extensive body of work transcends his lyrical works to encompass groundbreaking compositions\, orchestral and choral works\, music for dance\, and concertos for a variety of traditional Arabic instruments.\n\nThe cross-generational Khalife trio will perform a selection of Marcel’s revered classics that endeared him to millions in the Arab World\, with new arrangements alongside original compositions. Sary Khalife masterfully incorporates the Arabic quarter tone on his cello\, seamlessly weaving Arabic and Western sounds\, while Rami’s pianistic skills combine his classical training from The Juilliard School with a “Keith-Jarrett-like approach to jazz and improvisation.” (Daily Telegraph\, Australia)

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Prison\, a Prisoner\, and a Prison Guard
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a multimedia exploration of the impact of prisons on countries and communities across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region through the lens of “prison art.” The exhibit delves into the dynamic interplay between incarceration and creative expression to make sense of carceral systems.\n\nBy presenting prison art from various countries in the MENA region\, including Algeria\, Egypt\, Iran\, Iraq\, Lebanon\, Palestine\, Sudan\, Syria\, and Yemen\, this exhibit unfolds as a “journey” into the prison system and demonstrates the ways in which art can be a tool of expression and reconciliation for survivors\, detainees’ families\, and society at large. It promotes drawing parallels between the prison experience in the region and worldwide\, highlights the intentionality of carceral systems\, and expands the conversation to include prison-impacted communities. Viewers are invited to navigate the cross-generational\, human experiences of imprisonment often obscured behind prison walls and within individuals.\n\nCurated by Sumaya Tabbah and Susan Aboeid of The Ḥafathah Collective\, this traveling exhibit was organized by U-M Students Organize for Syria (SOS) in partnership with U-M Library and with support from the U-M Arts Initiative.\n\nPlan to attend the related discussion\, \"Art\, Justice\, and Carcerality: The Role of Creative Expression in the Pursuit of Justice\,\" on February 6.

DESCRIPTION:The exhibit \"Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World: Interracial Identity in the U.S. and Around the World — What Research and Mixed Race People Tell Us\" is an exploration into the library's collections about the diversity of mixed race heritage. Through research\, narratives\, demographic data\, and a variety of visual and published materials\, explore multifaceted aspects of mixed race heritage with insights from many perspectives.\n\nThe 2020 U.S. Census illuminated a 276 percent increase in individuals who identify as \"two or more races\" since 2010. In recognition of the growing numbers of mixed race-identifying people at the University of Michigan\, throughout the country\, and across the globe\, we're excited to unveil this new exhibit — a unique exploration of changing demographics and intersectional identities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich
DESCRIPTION:View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses\, which\, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization\, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship. Features such as exquisite typeface design\, letterpress printing\, handmade paper\, traditional illustration techniques like woodcut and engraving\, and the inclusion of original art by renowned artists highlight the presses' dedication to artistry and detail.\n\nThe display opens with an edition of \"The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer\,\" published in 1896 by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press\, a pivotal press that greatly influenced the development of the private press movement as a means of preserving and revitalizing the fine printing and art traditions of the past. Additionally\, the exhibit includes some examples of artist’s proofs\, offering a glimpse into the intricate creative process behind these exceptional works.\n\nThese books are on loan from the collection of Bill Heidrich\, a long-time supporter of the University of Michigan Library.

DESCRIPTION:The leaf surface is a dynamic landscape where tiny\, specialized structures help plants interact with the world around them. Let’s bring this world into view! Join us for an exhibit that highlights the complex and often beautiful anatomy of leaves from the Matthaei collection. Plants throughout the conservatory will be paired with microscope photographs and micro-CT scans that illustrate the otherwise invisible structures that protect leaves from chewing insects\, absorb (or repel!) water\, and even recruit “bodyguards”. You won’t look at leaves the same way again! \n\nThis project is a collaboration between MBGNA and the Weber and Vasconcelos labs in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\, led by PhD student Rosemary Glos.

DESCRIPTION:Welcome. Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle. Gather to feel full\, to be moved and inspired by all the possible imaginations of what is yet to come.\n \nCurated by Félix Zamora Gómez Irving Stenn\, Jr. Fellow in Public Humanities & Museum Pedagogy\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism
DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Film Screening: The Dawn Is Too Far: Stories of Iranian-American Life
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a screening of *The Dawn is Too Far: Stories of Iranian-American Life* (2024\, dir. Persis Karim and Soumyaa Behrens\, 55 min.)\, followed by a conversation and Q&A\nsession with the co-director\, Persis Karim! This event is free and open to the public.\n\nAbout the film: *The Dawn is Too Far: Stories of Iranian-American Life* poetically narrates the story of a community of Iranian Americans who have made the San Francisco Bay Area their home over the past five decades. The film seeks to expand our understanding of Iranian immigration — what it means to leave home and country\, and to live through the episodes of turbulent histories of dissent\, revolution\, war\, and separation — and reinvent oneself in a new place\, country\, and culture. *The Dawn is Too Far* does not paint a story of salvation and happy assimilation but rather seeks to identify the complex ways that members of the Bay Area's Iranian diaspora community have navigated the challenges and traumas of history to reinvent themselves and tell their own stories. These as yet untold stories build on a longer history of Iranian immigration to Northern California\, where Iranians as students\, activists\, artists\, draw on as well as influence the larger culture of the Bay Area. This community\, and all that it has faced\, offers a more nuanced story of the Iranian diaspora\, the ways that this community enriches and enlivens the region where they live\, work\, and build families and community. *The Dawn is Too Far* undermines the tired and overplayed news headlines that are dominated by narratives of enmity and mistrust between the government of Iran and the U.S. to offer a more humane understanding of how people's lives and the sacrifices they make are part of the larger story of immigration. \n\nAbout the speaker: Persis Karim is the director of the Center for Iranian Diaspora Studies at San Francisco State University\, where she also teaches in the Department of\nHumanities and Comparative and World Literature. She is the editor of three anthologies of Iranian diaspora literature and has published numerous articles about\nIranian diaspora literature and culture for academic journals\, as well as poetry and essays in non-academic publications. *The Dawn is Too Far* is her first film and reflects\nher interest in documenting and sharing the larger history and personal stories of those who are part of the global Iranian diaspora.\n\nThis event was made possible with the generous help of Middle East Studies (U-M\, Dearborn)\, Middle East Studies (U-M\, Ann Arbor)\, the Center for Arab American Studies\n(U-M\, Dearborn)\, the Honors Program at U-M Dearborn\, the Residential College at U-M Ann Arbor\, and the Iranian Studies Program at U-M Ann Arbor.

SUMMARY:Performance:May Erlewine
DESCRIPTION:What It Takes album release tour\n\nMay Erlewine has split her heart wide open and hasn’t hidden any of the contents from view. One of the Midwest’s most prolific and passionate songwriters\, Erlewine has a gift for writing songs of substance that feel both fresh and soulfully familiar. Her ability to emotionally engage with an audience has earned her a dedicated following far beyond her Michigan roots. She shows us her heartbreak\, but she also shows us her empowered and emboldened spirit. In her quest to find her most authentic self\, Erlewine gifts each listener with a powerful\, emotional experience that immediately connects us.\n\nRaised in a home full of art and music\, Erlewine began writing songs at a very young age. As a teenager she hitchhiked across the country\, honing her skills as a performer and absorbing the kind of stories and landscapes that would inform her music. Her songs show a very real connection and concern with everyday folk.\n​\nErlewine draws from a wide variety of influences to create her sound. Lyrically\, her songs are rooted in hard-wrought wisdom\, joy and sorrow\, simplicity\, and stories from her own experiences. Musically\, May's songs wash over the audience like a tender hug. She is a magnetic solo performer and is also often supported by her carefully chosen backing bands.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Prison\, a Prisoner\, and a Prison Guard
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a multimedia exploration of the impact of prisons on countries and communities across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region through the lens of “prison art.” The exhibit delves into the dynamic interplay between incarceration and creative expression to make sense of carceral systems.\n\nBy presenting prison art from various countries in the MENA region\, including Algeria\, Egypt\, Iran\, Iraq\, Lebanon\, Palestine\, Sudan\, Syria\, and Yemen\, this exhibit unfolds as a “journey” into the prison system and demonstrates the ways in which art can be a tool of expression and reconciliation for survivors\, detainees’ families\, and society at large. It promotes drawing parallels between the prison experience in the region and worldwide\, highlights the intentionality of carceral systems\, and expands the conversation to include prison-impacted communities. Viewers are invited to navigate the cross-generational\, human experiences of imprisonment often obscured behind prison walls and within individuals.\n\nCurated by Sumaya Tabbah and Susan Aboeid of The Ḥafathah Collective\, this traveling exhibit was organized by U-M Students Organize for Syria (SOS) in partnership with U-M Library and with support from the U-M Arts Initiative.\n\nPlan to attend the related discussion\, \"Art\, Justice\, and Carcerality: The Role of Creative Expression in the Pursuit of Justice\,\" on February 6.

DESCRIPTION:The exhibit \"Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World: Interracial Identity in the U.S. and Around the World — What Research and Mixed Race People Tell Us\" is an exploration into the library's collections about the diversity of mixed race heritage. Through research\, narratives\, demographic data\, and a variety of visual and published materials\, explore multifaceted aspects of mixed race heritage with insights from many perspectives.\n\nThe 2020 U.S. Census illuminated a 276 percent increase in individuals who identify as \"two or more races\" since 2010. In recognition of the growing numbers of mixed race-identifying people at the University of Michigan\, throughout the country\, and across the globe\, we're excited to unveil this new exhibit — a unique exploration of changing demographics and intersectional identities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CREES Exhibition. Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\, an installation by Gluklya
DESCRIPTION:Gluklya’s work is a powerful example of socially engaged art at the intersections of gender\, class\, and cultural identity. By focusing on experiences of female textile workers in Kyrgyzstan\, the artist explores the often-overlooked stories of women affected by Soviet and post-Soviet colonialism. \"Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\" retells their stories using a diverse range of media — film\, sculpture\, watercolors\, and felt tapestries. Unfolding the implications of economic and societal pressures on women\, Gluklya explores issues of poverty\, isolation\, and exploitation among the garment workers.\n   \n   Personal stories are woven into a broader social context — such as the legacy of the \"Likbez\" (liquidation of illiteracy) campaign among women in Central Asia during Soviet rule and entrenched patriarchal traditions\, like \"Ala Kachuu\" (bride-kidnapping). This dynamic — where colonization and modernization intertwine the individual lives they touch — raises questions about cultural identity and the ethical borders of decolonized research.\n\nThis exhibition was curated by CREES alumna Dianne Beal (BA REES '79). See more of her work here: https://www.diannebeal.com/curatorial.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Andy Ross Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The pieces here are from a large series of works made over the last several years. In them\, Ross explores humor and personal meaning through absurd juxtapositions of pairs of wildly varied images. Each single image is stripped of its original context (be it\, for example\, a history book\, an instruction manual\, or a magazine advertisement)\, placed on a white background like some kind of specimen\, and presented afresh with a new “companion image.” These companion images confront\, contrast and converse with each other\, and thereby build new relationships\, narratives\, jokes\, and contexts.\n\nAndy Ross grew up in Macomb County\, and has been making art in various mediums since the 1970s. He received a BFA degree from College for Creative Studies\, and an MFA degree from University of Michigan. He has taught photography\, art\, and web design at colleges in California and Michigan. His photographs and collages have been exhibited in schools\, galleries\, and museums across the United States.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Angkorian Homecoming
DESCRIPTION:Informed by her experience as a refugee\, Phung Huynh’s projects explore the complexities of displacement\, assimilation\, and cultural negotiation among Cambodian and Vietnamese refugees who have resettled in the United States. She creates detailed graphite portraits on pink donut boxes to highlight the stories of Southeast Asians who have survived war trauma and genocide. Huynh’s serigraph prints about Donut Kids foreground intergenerational gaps as well as bridging the refugee parent and American child through the narratives of Cambodian American children who were raised by donut shop owners in California. Huynh’s most recent work of drawings of Cambodian Buddhist statue heads and photographic prints of decapitated statue bodies on fabric addresses the repatriation of looted Cambodian antiquities in the context of challenging the legacy of colonialism\, unethical museum practices\, and the refugee’s desire to return home.

DESCRIPTION:Artist John Rizzo is exhibiting individual mixed-media sculptures that bridge across art\, design\, and craft. Using a combination of materials that are historically perceived as precious John's work distorts\, disrupts\, and re-contextualizes perceptions of materials and their values. His work is at once \, colorful \, playful \, layered and deeply self-reflective in its personal narrative.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Elizabeth Boyd-Hartmann Dizik Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:This body of work represents a playful exploration of form\, color\, and scale through the lens of cellular shapes. Inspired by the complex patterns of biological life\, the pieces are a celebration of growth\, transformation\, and the joy of experimentation. The use of non-precious materials\, such as wood balls and paint\, allowed for a liberating approach to composition and color\, while the spherical forms and circular panels evoke the look of petri dishes—symbolizing both scientific curiosity and organic development.\nBorn in Detroit\, Elizabeth is a multidisciplinary artist and mother based in the metro Detroit area\, where she works from a studio in her home. With a background in bench jewelry\, her earlier work focused on studio jewelry and was represented by Galerie Noel Guyomarc’h in Montreal.\nElizabeth’s work has been exhibited both locally and internationally. She holds a BA in Jewelry Design\, with First Class Honours\, from Central Saint Martins in London\, a BFA from the University of Michigan\, and an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art\, where she specialized in Metalsmithing and Architecture. Her diverse practice spans jewelry\, sculpture\, and installation\, blending materials and techniques to explore themes of production\, growth\, transformation\, and organic form.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Redefining the Crown
DESCRIPTION:In Winter 2025\, the Lane Hall exhibit space will feature a portraiture series titled Redefining the Crown showcasing the powerful stories of six Black breast cancer survivors.\n\nBased on a photo essay by U-M Faculty Versha Pleasant (MD/MPH) and Ava Purkiss (PhD) in Medicine at Michigan\, this exhibition examines the cultural and personal significance of hair within Black communities\, particularly through the lens of breast cancer treatment and recovery. The term \"crown\" is deeply symbolic in Black culture\, signifying beauty\, strength\, and identity. The featured photo essay by photographer Tafari Stevenson-Howard captures the intimate journeys of Ann Chatman\, Tanisha Kennedy\, Felecia McDaniel\, Shantell Elaine McCoy\, Tamara Lynn Myles\, and Veleria Banks.\n\nThrough their narratives and portraits\, the exhibit examines how these women have navigated the profound impact of hair loss caused by chemotherapy\, inviting the audience to witness their stories with radical empathy. It explores the cultural pride and personal identity intricately tied to their hair\, and how these elements are redefined amidst their battles with breast cancer.\n\nThe exhibit will be on view from January 21\, 2025 to August 8\, 2025. This exhibition is presented with support from IRWG\, the Department of Women's and Gender Studies\, and Michigan Medicine. \n\nLocated on the first floor of Lane Hall (204 S. State Street)\, the Exhibit Space is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich
DESCRIPTION:View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses\, which\, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization\, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship. Features such as exquisite typeface design\, letterpress printing\, handmade paper\, traditional illustration techniques like woodcut and engraving\, and the inclusion of original art by renowned artists highlight the presses' dedication to artistry and detail.\n\nThe display opens with an edition of \"The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer\,\" published in 1896 by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press\, a pivotal press that greatly influenced the development of the private press movement as a means of preserving and revitalizing the fine printing and art traditions of the past. Additionally\, the exhibit includes some examples of artist’s proofs\, offering a glimpse into the intricate creative process behind these exceptional works.\n\nThese books are on loan from the collection of Bill Heidrich\, a long-time supporter of the University of Michigan Library.

SUMMARY:Other:Leaves Under the Lens
DESCRIPTION:The leaf surface is a dynamic landscape where tiny\, specialized structures help plants interact with the world around them. Let’s bring this world into view! Join us for an exhibit that highlights the complex and often beautiful anatomy of leaves from the Matthaei collection. Plants throughout the conservatory will be paired with microscope photographs and micro-CT scans that illustrate the otherwise invisible structures that protect leaves from chewing insects\, absorb (or repel!) water\, and even recruit “bodyguards”. You won’t look at leaves the same way again! \n\nThis project is a collaboration between MBGNA and the Weber and Vasconcelos labs in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\, led by PhD student Rosemary Glos.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:8-BIT Music Exhibit: The Gallery
DESCRIPTION:MORE INFO: https://sites.lsa.umich.edu/8bitmusic/ \n\nThe 8-Bit Music Exhibit is a week-long exploration of the creation of the nostalgic\, retro tunes many have grown up with and come to love\, as well as a showcase of how such music has been reclaimed and repurposed for continued existence in the modern world. The gallery plans to guide viewers through a history of 8-bit music\, its significance to media and video games of its time\, and notable figures that influenced the legacy of the niched genre. In the workshop\, participants will learn how modern chiptune artists create music from Game Boys and the production software LSDJ\, and have the opportunity to create music of their own design. Throughout the end of the exhibit week\, we will celebrate the historic and modern legacies of 8-bit music in a set of live performances produced by Norah\, a seasoned chiptune artist.\n\nOur goal in developing this exhibit is to highlight 8-bit/chiptune music as a unique form of digital art celebrated for its sound\, cultural significance\, and innovation. Throughout the lifespans of the original hardware supporting this music\, artists often faced limitations due to hardware constraints. These difficulties led to early video game industry composers inventing new techniques and methods for music creation that have evolved over time and remain influential today.\n\nTHANK YOU to our co-sponsors and partners for your support in the creation of this event!\n-> U-M LSA Technology Services Digital Scholarship (https://lsa.umich.edu/technology-services/services/research-tools/digital-scholarship.html)\n-> U-M Digital Studies Institute (https://www.digitalstudies.umich.edu/)\n-> U-M Arts Initiative (https://arts.umich.edu/arts-initiative)\n-> Neutral Zone (https://www.neutral-zone.org/event-list/2025/4/11/free-tech-workshop-chiptune-8-bit)\n-> Ann Arbor District Libraries (https://aadl.org/)\n-> Ypsilanti District Libraries (https://www.ypsilibrary.org/)\n-> Pinball Pete's in Ann Arbor (https://www.pinballpetes.org/copy-of-east-lansing-location)\n-> Video Game Music Club (VGMC) (https://maizepages.umich.edu/organization/vgmc)\n-> WolvSec (https://wolvsec.org/)\n-> LGBTQ+ Michigan (https://websites.umich.edu/~lgbtqmichigan/#)\n-> Ann Arbor Fighting Game Community at the University of Michigan (FGC) (https://maizepages.umich.edu/organization/a2fgc)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Student Dissertation Defense - The role of dominant plants\, insects\, and climate in shaping communities and ecosystems
DESCRIPTION:Dissertation abstract: \nPlant communities are structured by multiple potentially interacting factors\, including interactions between plant species\, herbivores\, and climate. Critically\, the independent and potentially interactive effects of plant-plant interactions\, insect herbivory\, and precipitation on plant community structure and ecosystem function are rarely investigated. My dissertation addresses this research gap through a set of three separate field studies in old fields across Michigan. First\, I investigated the role of a dominant plant species in shaping plant species richness\, productivity\, and the community structure of associated arthropods. Specifically\, I found that the dominant plant species Solidago canadensis (Canada goldenrod) indirectly reduced arthropod abundance by reducing the biomass of all of the other plant species in the community\, in part by reducing light availability. With this work\, I demonstrate that the effects of a dominant plant on communities spans across multiple trophic levels. Next\, at the same field site\, I implemented a field experiment to study the independent and combined effects of S. canadensis and insects on plant diversity\, biomass\, subdominant species abundance\, microclimate\, plant functional traits\, and decomposition. Insect presence mediated the effect of S. canadensis removal on plant biomass and richness. Furthermore\, the effects of S. canadensis and insects extended belowground and determined the temporal variability of plant biomass. Overall\, these results emphasize the importance of considering the effect of insects when trying to understand the role of dominant plants in structuring plant communities and shaping ecosystem function above- and below-ground\, as well as overtime. Finally\, I examined the combined effects of a generalist insect herbivore and altered precipitation on plant biomass\, richness\, functional diversity\, and the community averaged trends of a suite of plant traits. Altered summer precipitation and the presence of the generalist insect Melanoplus femurrubrum (Red-legged grasshopper) had interactive effects on the plant biomass and on community averaged plant traits\, in particular. These results suggest that the traits of the most common species in the community are the most sensitive to altered precipitation and grasshopper herbivory. Taken together\, my dissertation comprehensively examines the factors that structure plant communities\, and in particular enhances our understanding of the interactive effects of dominant plants\, insects\, and climate on communities and ecosystems.\n\nThis is a hybrid event.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:GLNT: Anticyclotomic Euler systems for CM fields
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: The idea of constructing cohomology classes using congruences between modular forms dates back to the proof of the converse part of the Herbrand-Ribet theorem. We begin by reviewing Ribet's method and its application to the classical Hida family of Eisenstein series. Next\, we discuss how applying this method to the Coleman family that is perpendicular to the Hida family suggests the existence of an Euler system. This phenomenon can be further generalized using insights from the p-adic local Langlands correspondence. Finally\, we present our work on the construction of an anticyclotomic Euler system for CM fields and its application to the Iwasawa main conjecture.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Multi-messenger Hunt for Galactic PeVatrons
DESCRIPTION:Cosmic rays with energies up to a few PeV are believed to originate from our own galaxy. However\, thir origin has remained a mystery for over a century since the discovery. Recent discoveries in neutrino and gamma-ray astronomy have provided strong evidence for the existence of PeV particle accelerators\, or PeVatrons\, within the Milky Way galaxy. Among them\, the H.E.S.S. observatory discovered a PeVatron within 10 parsecs of the center of our galaxy\, suggesting that the supermassive black hole Sgr A* may be responsible. Despite being one of the least active supermassive black holes\, Sgr A* may have acted as a potential particle accelerator during its active stage. In this talk\, I will describe our attempts to find observational evidence that Sgr A* could serve as a PeVatron\, as well as how we can reconstruct Sgr A* activity history. In the second half of the talk\, I will introduce our ongoing multi-messenger efforts to identify other Galactic PeVatron candidates discovered by the LHAASO observatory and to test whether they bear the nature of supernova remnants\, pulsar wind nebula\, young stellar clusters or black hole systems.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Student Dissertation Defense - Microbial Diversity and Dynamics in Lake Food Webs: Species Interactions\, Life History Strategies\, and Community Reassembly
DESCRIPTION:Dissertation Abstract: \nUnderstanding the processes involved in biodiversity maintenance and species coexistence is a central goal of community ecology. Lakes have long served as focal systems for exploring this puzzle\, as they harbor high microbial diversity despite their relatively stable and homogeneous appearance—a paradox that challenges classical formulations in ecological theory. A significant body of work suggests that steady states are exceptions rather than the norm in natural lakes. This dissertation engages with this theme by investigating microbial community diversity and dynamics in the context of cross-scale species interactions\, microbial life-history strategies\, and ecological memory. Together\, the chapters explore how general ecological principles play out in particular contexts—especially under heterogeneous environmental conditions and shifts in food web structures.\n\nThis is a hybrid event. \nJoin remotely: https://umich.zoom.us/j/99854884233\nMeeting ID: 998 5488 4233\n \nIn Chapter 2\, I examine the direct impacts of predation by introduced Dreissenid mussels on bacterial abundance\, diversity\, and composition in two regions of the Laurentian Great Lakes—Lake Erie’s western basin and Saginaw Bay in Lake Huron. While these mussels are known to exert strong top-down controls in lakes\, including microbial communities\, through filter-feeding\, I find their impacts to be variable. In some cases\, mussels significantly reduced microbial diversity\; in others\, their impacts were minimal or absent. Moreover\, I find that resistance to predation was structured at a shallower phylogenetic depth than previously reported in the low-nutrient Lake Michigan. These results highlight the role of context dependency and natural history in shaping animal-microbe interactions beyond host-microbiome systems.\n\nChapter 3 explores whether the observed shifts in microbial community structure and diversity can be explained through growth-defense theory. This canonical theory in ecology assumes that organisms face fundamental trade-offs due to differences in allocation strategies under resource-limited conditions. Using metagenomic methods\, I compare microbial populations resistant to mussel predation with those that are susceptible. I find no evidence for the emergence of resistance at the cost of growth. Instead\, resistance emerges as a complex trait\, shaped by varying patterns across phylogenetic\, molecular\, and broad functional levels. These results suggest that heterogenous environmental conditions in natural lakes may relax trade-off constraints in bacterial trait evolution\, as trade-off frameworks often rely on a priori assumptions about the tendency of ecosystems to move toward steady-state conditions.\n\nChapter 4 turns toward ecological memory. Using a common garden mesocosm setup\, which controls for the environmental differences between treatments by exposing them to the same background\, I test whether the historical presence of mussels alters microbial community reassembly following environmental perturbation. I sampled six temperate lakes from southeast Michigan\, three lakes with a history of mussel presence and three without. Microbial communities from lakes with and without mussels followed distinct reassembly trajectories. Moreover\, shifts in community structure translated into shifts in function\, indicating that the ecological memory of food web interactions leaves historical imprints with implications for broader ecosystem functioning.\n\nAcross chapters\, my findings raise questions about the universality of equilibrium-based theories in ecology. These studies show that microbial diversity emerges from the dynamic interplay between context-dependency\, functional traits\, and historical imprints of species interactions. While grounded in experimental and genomic methods\, this dissertation also critically engages with some foundational concepts in ecological theory (Chapters 1 and 5). In doing so\, it gestures toward a broader philosophical tension in ecological thought: the inherent complexity of biodiversity and the challenges associated with its abstraction (Chapter 6).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RCGD Seminar Series: Courtney Thomas Tobin
DESCRIPTION:Courtney Thomas Tobin joins us April 7\, 2025 to present emerging work from the M.O.S.A.I.C. (Multimorbidity Outcomes & Solutions for African/Black Americans In California) Initiative\, a community-engaged research collaborative aimed at advancing equity-centered multimorbidity research and solutions.\n\nMultimorbidity—the co-occurrence of two or more chronic conditions—represents a major contributor to racial health disparities in the United States. Yet\, research on multimorbidity among Black Americans remains limited and inconsistent\, particularly with regard to measurement approaches\, inclusion of mental health conditions\, and age-specific patterns. This gap undermines our ability to accurately estimate burden\, identify at-risk groups\, and design effective\, culturally relevant interventions. \n\nIn this talk\, Dr. Courtney S. Thomas Tobin will focus on Phase II of the Initiative—P.R².I.S.M. (Pinpointing Risks and Resources and Identifying Specific Multimorbidities). This presentation draws on data from the National Survey of American Life (NSAL) to examine national patterns of multimorbidity among Black Americans. \n\nDr. Thomas Tobin will explore how definitions and measurement strategies (e.g.\, counts vs. categories\, inclusion of mental health conditions) shape estimates of prevalence\, associated correlates\, and subgroup differences across the adult life course. Findings offer critical insights for improving the measurement\, monitoring\, and mitigation of multimorbidity in Black communities.\n\nThe Winter 2025 RCGD Seminar Series features speakers invited and hosted by faculty affiliated with the Research Center for Group Dynamics. These multidisciplinary talks will cover a variety of topics in social science\, including social cognition\, structural racism\, romantic relationships\, and cognitive health. Check the schedule for updates to this series that will convene on select Mondays at 3:30 at the Institute for Social Research.\n\nThese events are held Mondays from 3:30 to 5.\nIn person: ISR Thompson 1430\, unless otherwise specified.\nAs permissions allow\, seminars are later posted to our YouTube playlist.\n\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.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Banned\, Bold\, and Brave: 2025 Jill S. Harris Memorial Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a conversation with author and Loudmouth Books bookstore owner Leah Johnson. Johnson will sit down with U-M's Ebony Elizabeth Thomas\, author and Associate Professor of Education. They'll talk about censorship\, public education\, entrepreneurship\, and Black Girl Magic. Expect questions like: \n \n-Why was Johnson's debut novel banned? \n-What was the inspiration behind the name Loudmouth Books? \n-What's next on the horizon for Johnson's readers?\n\nBook sale and signing immediately following the Q&A courtesy of Black Stone Bookstore.\n\nLeah Johnson is an eternal midwesterner and author of award-winning books for children and young adults. Her bestselling debut YA novel\, *You Should See Me in a Crown*\, was a Stonewall Honor Book\, and the inaugural Reese's Book Club YA pick. In 2021\, *TIME *named it one of the 100 Best Young Adult Books of All Time. Her debut middle grade book\, *Ellie Engle Saves Herself* was published by Disney-Hyperion in May 2023. When she’s not writing\, you can find her at Loudmouth Books\, her Indianapolis independent bookstore that specializes in highlighting the work of marginalized authors and uplifting banned or challenged books.\n\nEbony Elizabeth Thomas\, PhD is Chair of the Joint Program in English and Education at the University of Michigan’s Marsal Family School of Education\, as well as Associate Professor of Education. She is the author of *The Dark Fantastic: Race and the Imagination from Harry Potter to the Hunger Games* (NYU Press\, 2019)\, which won the World Fantasy Award\, the British Fantasy Award\, and the Children’s Literature Association Book Award\, among other accolades. Her most recent books are *Harry Potter and the Other: Race\, Justice\, and Difference in the Wizarding World *(University Press of Mississippi\, 2022) co-edited with Sarah Park Dahlen\, and* Restorying Young Adult Literature: Expanding Students’ Perspectives with Digital Texts* (NCTE\, 2023) co-authored with James Joshua Coleman and Autumn A. Griffin.\n\nThe Jill S. Harris Memorial Endowment was established in 1985 by Roger and Meredith Harris\, Jill’s parents\, her grandparents Allan and Norma Harris\, and friends. The fund was established in memory of Jill\, a resident of Chicago and undergraduate student at U-M who passed away due to injuries from an auto accident. The fund brings a distinguished visitor to campus each year who will appeal to undergraduates interested in the humanities and the arts. The visitor may either be a fellow of the institute for an extended period of time or invited for a few days to present the annual lecture. The visiting fellow will usually interact with undergraduates\, informally and through visits to classes or by other means by which exchanges with undergraduates may be promoted.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:MHV gravity amplitudes and their combinatorics
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, we investigate MHV tree-level gravity amplitudes as defined on the spinor-helicity variety. Unlike their gluon counterparts\, gravity amplitudes do not admit logarithmic singularities nor Amplituhedron-like construction. While their singularity structure is more complicated (e.g.\, they exhibit non-trivial zeros)\, these amplitudes often remain remarkably simple. In joint work with Joris Koefler\, Umut Oktem\, Shruti Paranjape\, and Jara Trnka\, we make a conjecture pertaining to the uniqueness of the numerator of MHV gravity amplitudes and develop this feature from a combinatorial perspective\, which suggests a new method for examining adjoint hypersurfaces.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:STeMS Speaker Series | Is the Pixel Political? What Chinese Computing Teaches Us About the Digital Age
DESCRIPTION:The pixel is the quintessential building block of the digital age—a visual manifestation of the binary logic of zeros and ones. In its seeming universalism\, it spans text and image\, and operates seamlessly across languages\, scripts\, and cultures. Or does it?\nDrawing upon the first-ever history of Chinese-language computing—a now trillion-dollar industry that\, just fifty years ago\, was widely considered unimaginable—this lecture interrogates the politics of the seemingly universal pixel.\nHow did engineers\, linguists\, and technologists overcome the complexities of digitizing the world’s largest non-alphabetic script\, with its 100\,000+ characters? And what does this history reveal about the deeper\, often invisible\, structures of power and exclusion embedded within digital infrastructures?
\nProfessor Thomas S. Mullaney of Stanford University—recipient of Stanford’s highest award in teaching and Kluge Chair of Technology and Society—explores these questions through insights from his award-winning two-book series\, The Chinese Typewriter and The Chinese Computer (MIT Press). Based on research spanning over 80 archives across 15 countries\, this lecture offers a global history of the information age—one that challenges the Euro-American assumptions that have long shaped both corporate technology and academic scholarship.\n\nThomas S. Mullaney is Professor of Chinese History at Stanford University\, a Guggenheim Fellow\, and the recipient of Stanford’s highest award for excellence in teaching\, the Gores Award. He is the author of The Chinese Computer: A Global History of the Information Age (MIT)\, co-author of Where Research Begins (University of Chicago Press\, with Christopher Rea)\, The Chinese Typewriter: A History (MIT\, winner of the Fairbank Prize)\, and Coming to Terms with the Nation: Ethnic Classification in Modern China (UC Press)\, among other works. His writings have appeared in Fast Company\, MIT Technology Review\, Quartz\, the South China Morning Post\, TechCrunch\, the Journal of Asian\nStudies\, Technology & Culture\, Foreign Affairs\, and Foreign Policy. His work has been featured in RadioLab\, The Atlantic\, the BBC\, and in invited lectures at Google\, Microsoft\, Adobe\, and more. He earned his BA and MA from the Johns Hopkins University\, and his PhD from Columbia University.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Anywhere but Here: Art History and the Presumption of Escape
DESCRIPTION:Darby English\, Carl Darling Buck Professor\, Dept. of Art History\, University of Chicago\n\nMany of the mechanisms that make art history work involve incorporating external material into the body of an analysis\, theory\, or argument—a terrific way to circumvent problems of difference and otherness our rapidly diversifying discipline remains ill-equipped to address satisfactorily. Could this incapacity\, which heralds a terminal failure to ‘meet the moment\,' be intentional\, a matter of disciplinary design?\n\nDarby English teaches modern and contemporary art and cultural studies at the University of Chicago. His most recent book is Charles Ray: Adam and Eve (New York: Gregory Miller\, 2024).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:WCEE Distinguished Lecture on Europe. Civil Society in an Era of Global Change
DESCRIPTION:In this lecture\, Matviichuk will delve into the evolving role of civil society\, particularly in times of conflict and crisis. She will highlight the critical work of Ukraine's civil society\, which has expanded its traditional advocacy and watchdog functions to actively participate in national resistance and defense. Ordinary people are doing extraordinary things to foster citizen-state unity\, improve local political engagement\, and maintain social resilience despite the war's challenges.\n\n   Oleksandra Matviichuk leads the human rights NGO Center for Civil Liberties\, which was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2022. The organization promotes human rights and democracy in Ukraine and the OSCE region. It works on legislative reforms\, conducts public oversight of law enforcement agencies and the judiciary\, organizes educational initiatives\, and implements international solidarity programs.\n   \n   Matviichuk also coordinates the activities of the initiative group Euromaidan SOS\, which was established in response to the violent suppression of a peaceful student protest in Kyiv on November 30\, 2013. Throughout the three-month mass protests known as the Revolution of Dignity\, thousands of volunteers provided round-the-clock legal and humanitarian assistance to persecuted individuals nationwide.\n\n   Since the onset of Russian aggression in Ukraine in 2014\, the initiative has monitored political persecution in occupied Crimea\, documented war crimes and crimes against humanity in the Donbas region\, and spearheaded international campaigns like *#LetMyPeopleGo* and *#SaveOlegSentsov* to secure the release of political prisoners held by Russian authorities.\n\n   In response to the full-scale war beginning in February 2022\, Matviichuk and other partners launched the Tribunal for Putin initiative to document international crimes under the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court in all regions of Ukraine targeted by Russian attacks.\n\n   Matviichuk has authored numerous reports submitted to various UN bodies\, the Council of Europe\, the European Union\, the OSCE\, and the International Criminal Court.\n\n   Awards:\n   ● Democracy Defender Award for \"Outstanding Contribution to Promoting Democracy and Human Rights\" from OSCE missions (2016)\n   ● Right Livelihood Award (2022)\n   ● Sakharov Prize from the European Parliament (2022)\n   ● Named one of the 25 most influential women in the world by Financial Times (2022)\n   ● Global Civic Leadership Award (2024)\n   ● Pahl Peace Prize (2024)\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:QMSS Seminar with Dr. Amnon Cavari
DESCRIPTION:Join the Quantitative Methods in the Social Sciences (QMSS) program for an engaging seminar with former QMSS visiting associate professor\, Dr. Amnon Cavari!\n\nDemocracy Under Pressure: How Crises Shape Public Trust in Government and Democratic Norms in Israel.\n\nIn the past two years\, Israel has faced two major crises that have reshaped public perceptions of democracy: the government’s attempt to consolidate power\, which sparked mass protests\, and the October 7 attack by Hamas\, which escalated into a full-scale war involving Hezbollah\, Iran\, and its regional proxies. These events\, unfolding under the same highly polarizing government\, provide a unique opportunity to examine how internal and external crises influence public trust in government\, perceptions of its powers and limitations\, and evolving views of democratic norms. Drawing on three years of monthly public opinion data\, I analyze the divergent public responses to these crises and their broader implications for democratic stability.\n\nThere will be an opportunity for a select number of current U-M undergraduate students to join Dr. Cavari for a casual dinner after the event. If you are interested in this opportunity and would like to sign up for the dinner (or be placed on a waitlist if it is currently filled to capacity)\, please fill out this form: https://forms.gle/oKxhUtPiwgzGZUJ59.\n\nThis event is open to all students at U-M.

DESCRIPTION:All Films screened in German with English subtitles.\n\nFebruary 3: *Kokon* (Cocoon\, 2020\, dir. Leonie Krippendorff)\nTime: food at 6\, film at 6:30pm\nLocation: North Quad 2435\nBerlin-Kreuzberg is Nora’s microcosm. Nora\, the silent observer\, drifts around the monotonous housing blocks with her big sister and her friends\, witnessing events that seem to cross-fade in the summer light. Girls who want to be slim and pretty\, boys who say dumb things to provoke or because they are in love. Ruthless smartphone cameras and fragile teenagers. But Nora has her own way of looking at the world\, and when she meets Romy\, she realizes why. This film captures a summer of change. (Berlinale 2020)\n\nMarch 10: *Sonne* (Sun\, 2022\, dir. Kurdwin Ayub) \nTime: food at 6\, film at 6:30pm\nLocation: North Quad 2435\nThree teenage girls from Vienna twerk in hijab and sing a pop song. A YouTube video of it makes them famous overnight\, especially among Kurdish Muslims. Yesmin\, the only one of the friends who is Kurdish herself\, begins to distance herself more and more from her culture. Nati and Bella\, on the other hand\, seem fascinated by a world that is strange to them. A film about young people caught between social media and self-discovery\, a story of rebellious young women. (Austrian Films)\n\nApril 7: *Oray* (2019\, dir. Mehmet Akif Büyükatalay)\nTime: NO FOOD\, doors at 6:15pm\, film at 6:30pm\nLocation: *State Theater*\nOray strives to be a better person but struggles with his shady past. His dream of being a good Muslim and the perfect husband is suddenly shattered while arguing with his wife. Oray goes to Cologne\, where he tries to rebuild his life in a new Muslim community. But he is constantly torn between his faith\, everyday reality and identity.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Prison\, a Prisoner\, and a Prison Guard
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a multimedia exploration of the impact of prisons on countries and communities across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region through the lens of “prison art.” The exhibit delves into the dynamic interplay between incarceration and creative expression to make sense of carceral systems.\n\nBy presenting prison art from various countries in the MENA region\, including Algeria\, Egypt\, Iran\, Iraq\, Lebanon\, Palestine\, Sudan\, Syria\, and Yemen\, this exhibit unfolds as a “journey” into the prison system and demonstrates the ways in which art can be a tool of expression and reconciliation for survivors\, detainees’ families\, and society at large. It promotes drawing parallels between the prison experience in the region and worldwide\, highlights the intentionality of carceral systems\, and expands the conversation to include prison-impacted communities. Viewers are invited to navigate the cross-generational\, human experiences of imprisonment often obscured behind prison walls and within individuals.\n\nCurated by Sumaya Tabbah and Susan Aboeid of The Ḥafathah Collective\, this traveling exhibit was organized by U-M Students Organize for Syria (SOS) in partnership with U-M Library and with support from the U-M Arts Initiative.\n\nPlan to attend the related discussion\, \"Art\, Justice\, and Carcerality: The Role of Creative Expression in the Pursuit of Justice\,\" on February 6.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World
DESCRIPTION:The exhibit \"Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World: Interracial Identity in the U.S. and Around the World — What Research and Mixed Race People Tell Us\" is an exploration into the library's collections about the diversity of mixed race heritage. Through research\, narratives\, demographic data\, and a variety of visual and published materials\, explore multifaceted aspects of mixed race heritage with insights from many perspectives.\n\nThe 2020 U.S. Census illuminated a 276 percent increase in individuals who identify as \"two or more races\" since 2010. In recognition of the growing numbers of mixed race-identifying people at the University of Michigan\, throughout the country\, and across the globe\, we're excited to unveil this new exhibit — a unique exploration of changing demographics and intersectional identities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CREES Exhibition. Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\, an installation by Gluklya
DESCRIPTION:Gluklya’s work is a powerful example of socially engaged art at the intersections of gender\, class\, and cultural identity. By focusing on experiences of female textile workers in Kyrgyzstan\, the artist explores the often-overlooked stories of women affected by Soviet and post-Soviet colonialism. \"Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\" retells their stories using a diverse range of media — film\, sculpture\, watercolors\, and felt tapestries. Unfolding the implications of economic and societal pressures on women\, Gluklya explores issues of poverty\, isolation\, and exploitation among the garment workers.\n   \n   Personal stories are woven into a broader social context — such as the legacy of the \"Likbez\" (liquidation of illiteracy) campaign among women in Central Asia during Soviet rule and entrenched patriarchal traditions\, like \"Ala Kachuu\" (bride-kidnapping). This dynamic — where colonization and modernization intertwine the individual lives they touch — raises questions about cultural identity and the ethical borders of decolonized research.\n\nThis exhibition was curated by CREES alumna Dianne Beal (BA REES '79). See more of her work here: https://www.diannebeal.com/curatorial.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Andy Ross Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The pieces here are from a large series of works made over the last several years. In them\, Ross explores humor and personal meaning through absurd juxtapositions of pairs of wildly varied images. Each single image is stripped of its original context (be it\, for example\, a history book\, an instruction manual\, or a magazine advertisement)\, placed on a white background like some kind of specimen\, and presented afresh with a new “companion image.” These companion images confront\, contrast and converse with each other\, and thereby build new relationships\, narratives\, jokes\, and contexts.\n\nAndy Ross grew up in Macomb County\, and has been making art in various mediums since the 1970s. He received a BFA degree from College for Creative Studies\, and an MFA degree from University of Michigan. He has taught photography\, art\, and web design at colleges in California and Michigan. His photographs and collages have been exhibited in schools\, galleries\, and museums across the United States.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Angkorian Homecoming
DESCRIPTION:Informed by her experience as a refugee\, Phung Huynh’s projects explore the complexities of displacement\, assimilation\, and cultural negotiation among Cambodian and Vietnamese refugees who have resettled in the United States. She creates detailed graphite portraits on pink donut boxes to highlight the stories of Southeast Asians who have survived war trauma and genocide. Huynh’s serigraph prints about Donut Kids foreground intergenerational gaps as well as bridging the refugee parent and American child through the narratives of Cambodian American children who were raised by donut shop owners in California. Huynh’s most recent work of drawings of Cambodian Buddhist statue heads and photographic prints of decapitated statue bodies on fabric addresses the repatriation of looted Cambodian antiquities in the context of challenging the legacy of colonialism\, unethical museum practices\, and the refugee’s desire to return home.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Elizabeth Boyd-Hartmann Dizik Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:This body of work represents a playful exploration of form\, color\, and scale through the lens of cellular shapes. Inspired by the complex patterns of biological life\, the pieces are a celebration of growth\, transformation\, and the joy of experimentation. The use of non-precious materials\, such as wood balls and paint\, allowed for a liberating approach to composition and color\, while the spherical forms and circular panels evoke the look of petri dishes—symbolizing both scientific curiosity and organic development.\nBorn in Detroit\, Elizabeth is a multidisciplinary artist and mother based in the metro Detroit area\, where she works from a studio in her home. With a background in bench jewelry\, her earlier work focused on studio jewelry and was represented by Galerie Noel Guyomarc’h in Montreal.\nElizabeth’s work has been exhibited both locally and internationally. She holds a BA in Jewelry Design\, with First Class Honours\, from Central Saint Martins in London\, a BFA from the University of Michigan\, and an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art\, where she specialized in Metalsmithing and Architecture. Her diverse practice spans jewelry\, sculpture\, and installation\, blending materials and techniques to explore themes of production\, growth\, transformation\, and organic form.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Redefining the Crown
DESCRIPTION:In Winter 2025\, the Lane Hall exhibit space will feature a portraiture series titled Redefining the Crown showcasing the powerful stories of six Black breast cancer survivors.\n\nBased on a photo essay by U-M Faculty Versha Pleasant (MD/MPH) and Ava Purkiss (PhD) in Medicine at Michigan\, this exhibition examines the cultural and personal significance of hair within Black communities\, particularly through the lens of breast cancer treatment and recovery. The term \"crown\" is deeply symbolic in Black culture\, signifying beauty\, strength\, and identity. The featured photo essay by photographer Tafari Stevenson-Howard captures the intimate journeys of Ann Chatman\, Tanisha Kennedy\, Felecia McDaniel\, Shantell Elaine McCoy\, Tamara Lynn Myles\, and Veleria Banks.\n\nThrough their narratives and portraits\, the exhibit examines how these women have navigated the profound impact of hair loss caused by chemotherapy\, inviting the audience to witness their stories with radical empathy. It explores the cultural pride and personal identity intricately tied to their hair\, and how these elements are redefined amidst their battles with breast cancer.\n\nThe exhibit will be on view from January 21\, 2025 to August 8\, 2025. This exhibition is presented with support from IRWG\, the Department of Women's and Gender Studies\, and Michigan Medicine. \n\nLocated on the first floor of Lane Hall (204 S. State Street)\, the Exhibit Space is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich
DESCRIPTION:View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses\, which\, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization\, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship. Features such as exquisite typeface design\, letterpress printing\, handmade paper\, traditional illustration techniques like woodcut and engraving\, and the inclusion of original art by renowned artists highlight the presses' dedication to artistry and detail.\n\nThe display opens with an edition of \"The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer\,\" published in 1896 by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press\, a pivotal press that greatly influenced the development of the private press movement as a means of preserving and revitalizing the fine printing and art traditions of the past. Additionally\, the exhibit includes some examples of artist’s proofs\, offering a glimpse into the intricate creative process behind these exceptional works.\n\nThese books are on loan from the collection of Bill Heidrich\, a long-time supporter of the University of Michigan Library.

SUMMARY:Other:Leaves Under the Lens
DESCRIPTION:The leaf surface is a dynamic landscape where tiny\, specialized structures help plants interact with the world around them. Let’s bring this world into view! Join us for an exhibit that highlights the complex and often beautiful anatomy of leaves from the Matthaei collection. Plants throughout the conservatory will be paired with microscope photographs and micro-CT scans that illustrate the otherwise invisible structures that protect leaves from chewing insects\, absorb (or repel!) water\, and even recruit “bodyguards”. You won’t look at leaves the same way again! \n\nThis project is a collaboration between MBGNA and the Weber and Vasconcelos labs in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\, led by PhD student Rosemary Glos.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:8-BIT Music Exhibit: The Gallery
DESCRIPTION:MORE INFO: https://sites.lsa.umich.edu/8bitmusic/ \n\nThe 8-Bit Music Exhibit is a week-long exploration of the creation of the nostalgic\, retro tunes many have grown up with and come to love\, as well as a showcase of how such music has been reclaimed and repurposed for continued existence in the modern world. The gallery plans to guide viewers through a history of 8-bit music\, its significance to media and video games of its time\, and notable figures that influenced the legacy of the niched genre. In the workshop\, participants will learn how modern chiptune artists create music from Game Boys and the production software LSDJ\, and have the opportunity to create music of their own design. Throughout the end of the exhibit week\, we will celebrate the historic and modern legacies of 8-bit music in a set of live performances produced by Norah\, a seasoned chiptune artist.\n\nOur goal in developing this exhibit is to highlight 8-bit/chiptune music as a unique form of digital art celebrated for its sound\, cultural significance\, and innovation. Throughout the lifespans of the original hardware supporting this music\, artists often faced limitations due to hardware constraints. These difficulties led to early video game industry composers inventing new techniques and methods for music creation that have evolved over time and remain influential today.\n\nTHANK YOU to our co-sponsors and partners for your support in the creation of this event!\n-> U-M LSA Technology Services Digital Scholarship (https://lsa.umich.edu/technology-services/services/research-tools/digital-scholarship.html)\n-> U-M Digital Studies Institute (https://www.digitalstudies.umich.edu/)\n-> U-M Arts Initiative (https://arts.umich.edu/arts-initiative)\n-> Neutral Zone (https://www.neutral-zone.org/event-list/2025/4/11/free-tech-workshop-chiptune-8-bit)\n-> Ann Arbor District Libraries (https://aadl.org/)\n-> Ypsilanti District Libraries (https://www.ypsilibrary.org/)\n-> Pinball Pete's in Ann Arbor (https://www.pinballpetes.org/copy-of-east-lansing-location)\n-> Video Game Music Club (VGMC) (https://maizepages.umich.edu/organization/vgmc)\n-> WolvSec (https://wolvsec.org/)\n-> LGBTQ+ Michigan (https://websites.umich.edu/~lgbtqmichigan/#)\n-> Ann Arbor Fighting Game Community at the University of Michigan (FGC) (https://maizepages.umich.edu/organization/a2fgc)

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Welcome. Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle. Gather to feel full\, to be moved and inspired by all the possible imaginations of what is yet to come.\n \nCurated by Félix Zamora Gómez Irving Stenn\, Jr. Fellow in Public Humanities & Museum Pedagogy\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism
DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Two puzzles in eliciting MPCs in surveys
DESCRIPTION:Eliciting the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) in surveys has become an important source of data for both researchers and policymakers. This talk will report on survey experiments designed to study two puzzles that have emerged in this literature. The between-study puzzle is that average MPCs vary substantially across surveys. We show in a randomized survey experiment that elicited MPCs are quite sensitive to question wording. The within-study puzzle is that that elicited MPCs are poorly correlated with measures of liquidity (and other observables). We conducted text analysis of open-format follow-up questions to a standard MPC elicitation question. The results suggest that the within-study puzzle is primarily driven by nonstandard behaviors (such as mental accounting) rather than respondent misunderstanding of questions or other measurement problems.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Tuesday Seminar Series - Seasonal migration as a driver of life history trade-offs and genetic diversity in Nearctic-Neotropical passerines
DESCRIPTION:Evolutionary trade-offs between fecundity and survival are ubiquitous in evolution. In high-latitude seasonal environments\, most birds breed during resource-rich summers\, and migrate to lower-latitude environments during the winter to survive. However\, the trade-off between fecundity and survival appears to scale with migration distance: By migrating farther\, birds may gain higher survival benefits\, but in doing so\, they sacrifice time that they might have spent raising offspring. Longer migrations are thus associated with \"slower\" life histories (higher survival\, fewer offspring)\, but this apparently straightforward trade-off belies an intriguing underlying paradox: Slower life histories are typically associated with lower genetic diversity\, but in migratory birds\, there is evidence that longer migrations are positively correlated with genetic diversity\, possibly because they promote demographic stability. Nevertheless\, populations of long-distance migrants readily switch strategies\, implying that populations will move quickly toward new optima if migration’s survival benefits no longer outweigh its reproductive costs\, with unknown population genetic consequences. My dissertation will combine movement ecology and population genetics to assess the ways in which seasonal migration has mediated life history trade-offs and impacted genetic diversity within species\, with the goal of understanding how the risks of migration have translated to rewards over evolutionary timescales.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Elliot S. Valenstein Distinguished Lecture | Synapse Specific Structural Plasticity: A Cellular Mechanism of Spaced Learning
DESCRIPTION:Synapses form trillions of connections in the brain. Long-term potentiation (LTP) is a cellular mechanism vital for learning that modifies the strength and structure of synapses. Three-dimensional electron microscopy reveals distinct pre- to post-synaptic arrangements: strong active zones (AZs) with tightly docked vesicles\, weak AZs with loose or non-docked vesicles\, and nascent zones (NZs) with a postsynaptic density but no presynaptic vesicles. LTP can be temporarily saturated preventing further increases in synaptic strength. I will discuss how NZ plasticity provides a time dependent and synapse-specific AZ expansion during LTP that ultimately encourages highly effective dendritic spine clusters regulated by the spine apparatus. I will also tell you why we have developed a new synaptopodin knockout rat system to investigate mechanisms of this process. We propose that the saturation of LTP protects recently formed memories and that the regrowth of nascent zones may account for the advantage of spaced over massed learning.\n\nAbout the speaker: Kristen Harris’s professional career started at Harvard Medical school where she rose to the rank of associate professor. She was the recruited as a full Professor to Boston Univ. where she helped establish their graduate program in experimental and computational neuroscience. She was recruited as a Georgia Research Alliance Eminent scholar to the Medical College of Georgia\, and in 2006 joined the Center for Learning and Memory at the University of Texas at Austin. She is renowned for her work on synapse structure and function pioneering three-dimensional reconstruction from serial section electron microscopy. Her lab had developed novel tools sharing them and data (synapseweb.clm.utexas.edu) that are widely used resources. She is the recipient of Sloan Research Fellowship\, Javits Merit Award\, Brain Research Foundation Fellowship\, and continuous funding for her lab\, including her current lead as PI on the NSF NeuroNex grant to investigate synaptic weight with 26 international and national coPIs. She is known for innovative teaching and presentations at conferences worldwide. She was recently elected to the National Academy of Sciences.\n\nThe talk will be followed by a reception with light refreshments.

DESCRIPTION:Attend in person or via Zoom: https://myumi.ch/Q61JX\n\nHow do states build essential market institutions when political or technical barriers hinder the establishment of the rule of law? In From Click to Boom\, Lizhi Liu suggests a digital solution: governments strategically outsourcing tasks of institutional development and enforcement to digital platforms—a process she calls “institutional outsourcing.” Through extensive interviews\, original surveys\, 28 million proprietary data points\, and a field experiment across three Chinese provinces\, Liu illustrates how China’s 800-million-user e-commerce market emerged from scratch and has profoundly transformed the nation’s economy and society.\n   \n   Lizhi Liu is an Assistant Professor in the McDonough School of Business and a faculty affiliate of the Department of Government at Georgetown University. Her research specializes in political economy and emerging markets. Her work has been published by American Economic Review: Insights\, Studies in Comparative International Development\, Minnesota Law Review\, Oxford University Press\, and Princeton University Press. In particular\, her research on the political economy of China's e-commerce market has garnered multiple research awards and grants. In 2021\, she was honored as one of Poets&Quants Top 50 Undergraduate Business Professors.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at chinese.studies@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Sydney Gable Dissertation Defense
DESCRIPTION:Probabilistic seismic hazard assessment (PSHA) is a widely used statistical approach to estimating where and when earthquakes are likely to occur based on the statistics of past seismicity patterns. Key parameters like the magnitude-frequency distribution (MFD) and the b-value are integral to hazard forecasting as they express the proportion of small to large earthquakes in a catalog. However\, these statistical parameters are heavily influenced by the accuracy of earthquake magnitude estimates. This research addresses the critical need for high-quality magnitude measurements for small earthquakes by using relative amplitude methods. I then use these improved magnitude estimates to examine spatiotemporal variations in b-value for multiple earthquake sequences to improve our understanding of short-term seismic hazard forecasting. I first introduce a generalized methodology to determine relative magnitudes for earthquake sequences which is only dependent on relative amplitude differences between interlinked pairs of waveforms\, as well as methods for determining the b-value from the distribution of magnitude differences between successive events. In chapter 3\, I investigate the uncertainty of magnitude results produced from the relative magnitude method by conducting a parameter study on critical variables including thresholds for signal-to-noise ratio and cross-correlation\, frequency content filtering\, and seismic station selection. I show that signal-to-noise and cross-correlation thresholds limit the number of magnitudes that can be recalculated while bandpass filtering has the largest effect on the variability of magnitude results. In chapter 4\, I develop a set of coda-envelope moment magnitudes (MW) as a benchmark data set for the relative magnitude method\, allowing us to align our relative magnitude measurements to an absolute moment magnitude scale for small earthquakes. I produce moment magnitudes for approximately 80% of the events in the Delaware Basin and demonstrate the capabilities of this method to provide moment magnitude for small earthquakes in regional earthquake catalogs. In chapter 5\, I use an uncalibrated relative magnitude method to reevaluate magnitude estimates for the 2011 Prague\, Oklahoma earthquake sequence and calculate the temporal and spatial variations of b-value. I show that b-values during the aftershock sequence are consistently low which demonstrate that the aftershock distribution is skewed towards producing earthquakes of higher magnitude for at least 5 months following the mainshock. Additionally\, we show a trend of decreasing b-value along the Meeker-Prague fault as distance from the mainshock increases suggesting that tectonic stress may still exist in areas of low b-value.  Finally in chapter 6\, I apply the relative magnitude method to 6 foreshock sequences in southern California and focus on an in-depth exploration of the spatial and temporal variations in b-value and their sensitivity to parameters such as spatial binning and window length. I show that approximately half of the sequences exhibit a drop in b-value in the months or days prior to a mainshock. I also show that mainshocks frequently occur in areas of low foreshock b-value for single-fault or dense seismicity. This research demonstrates the importance of reliable and transportable magnitude estimation for small earthquakes. With these improved magnitude estimates\, we also gain valuable insights into the behavior of seismic sequences through analysis of the spatiotemporal variability of the MFD and b-value.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Student Thesis Defense - The Effects of Pteridium aquilinum (Bracken fern) on Understory Microclimate and Seedling Success in Temperate Forests
DESCRIPTION:Title: The Effects of Pteridium aquilinum (Bracken fern) on Understory Microclimate and Seedling Success in Temperate Forests\n\nAbstract: The understory influences biodiversity and ecological processes and are a defining element of forest ecosystems\, as they can contain up to 90% of plant species in temperate forests. Bracken Fern (Pteridium aquilinum) often dominates forest understory communities globally\, including those in Northern Michigan. Dominant understory species affect ecosystems proportional to their high abundance. To explore how bracken fern impacts microclimate\, plant diversity\, and seedling success\, I asked two overarching questions: (1) how does natural variation in density of a dominant species impact understory abiotic conditions and plant diversity? (2) How does the cover and removal of a dominant species affect seedling survival and success? I established a bracken fern removal experiment in three forests at the University of Michigan Biological Station (UMBS). I paired plots where the bracken fern cover was left intact (natural) with plots where the bracken fern cover was removed (removal)\, across a gradient of bracken fern densities (0\, 25\, 50\, 75 100% cover). Soil moisture and temperature varied across the gradient of bracken fern density in natural plots. At peak growing season\, soil moisture variation was the highest in 50% natural plots. We did not detect a significant difference in seedling survival across the gradient of bracken fern density in either natural or removal plots. Seedling leaf area\, specific leaf area\, and leaf carbon-to-nitrogen ratios were not significantly affected by the removals. In 75% natural plots exclusively\, removal had a negative effect on seedling green leaf % N. Our results highlight that dominant understory species differentially influence understory microclimate and seedling traits in temperate forests\, but their impact is not proportional to cover. Instead\, bracken fern cover may be both facilitative and inhibitory for seedling growth and establishment\, showcasing the dynamic role of dominant species in temperate forests.\n\nThis is a hybrid event. \nJoin remotely: https://umich.zoom.us/j/93842698134\nMeeting ID: 938 4269 8134

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Tuesday Seminar Series - Soil mosaics and ant-earthworm functional domains within the coffee agroecosystem of Puerto Rico
DESCRIPTION:Ants and earthworms are widely recognized as important soil ecosystem engineers that contribute to various ecosystem processes such as nutrient cycling\, production of organic matter\, and soil formation\, and are thus important for maintaining healthy soils within agroecosystems. Addressing the dominant ant and earthworm taxa on Puerto Rican coffee farms\, I propose the existence of a “soil mosaic” of contrasting soil functional domains\, driven by the ant Solenopsis invicta exerting top-down control on populations of the earthworm Pontoscolex corethrurus\, which then finds refuge elsewhere\, forming discrete areas of contrasting influence on soils by each organism. These contrasting effects then create a mosaic of soil patches of differing quality\, which will ultimately affect crop production within the coffee agroecosystem. Through this work I aim to broaden the current understanding of the ecological relationship between ants and earthworms and their shared functional impact on the generation and maintenance of soil structure\, fertility\, and plant growth within the coffee agroecosystem.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Soft condensed matter spectroscopy in the terahertz range
DESCRIPTION:Terahertz spectroscopy has emerged as a powerful tool for studies of condensed matter systems\, complementary to other more widespread techniques such as x-ray diffraction or infrared spectroscopy. The use of terahertz radiation\, lying in the spectral range 0.1-10 THz (3-330 cm^{-1})\, can reveal structural and dynamical information that is not easily accessible by other means.Terahertz vibrational modes are often mediators of technologically important chemical reactions such as the gas capture reaction in clathrates or exchange reactions in metal-organic frameworks. This presentation will review several spectroscopic studies which illustrate some of the ways in which terahertz spectroscopy is being used to study such soft materials.\n\nBio:\nDr. Mittleman received his B.S. in physics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1988\, and his M.S. in 1990 and Ph.D. in 1994\, both in physics from the University of California\, Berkeley. He then joined AT&amp\;T Bell Laboratories as a post-doctoral member of the technical staff\, where he built one of the early terahertz time-domain spectrometers for material spectroscopy and imaging. Dr. Mittleman joined the ECE Department at Rice University in September 1996. In 2015\, he moved to the School of Engineering at Brown University. His research interests involve the science and technology of terahertz radiation. He is a Fellow of the OSA\, the APS\, and the IEEE\, and a Humboldt Research Award winner\, and in 2023-2025 he is a Mercator Fellow of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft. He has recently completed a three-year term as Chair of the International Society for Infrared Millimeter and Terahertz Waves.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Colloquim Seminar: Stable functions on groups
DESCRIPTION:In 2011\, Malliaris and Shelah proved a strong form of Szemeredi's regularity lemma for the class of \"stable graphs\"\, which are graphs omitting a certain special subgraph called a \"half-graph\".  Using tools from additive combinatorics\, Terry and Wolf proved a group theoretic analogue of this result in which finite graphs are replaced by subsets of finite abelian groups. A suitable generalization to arbitrary finite groups was then proved by myself\, Pillay\, and Terry using model theoretic methods. This talk will focus on an analytic analogue of stability defined for bounded functions on groups. Roughly speaking\, the main result of the talk says that if G is amenable\, then any stable function on G is almost constant on all translates of a unitary Bohr set in G of bounded complexity. I will also discuss several applications related to Bogolyubobv's Lemma\, the Croot-Sisask Lemma\, and Folner's Theorem.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EHAP Lecture Series: Alpha Male Replacements in White-Faced Capuchins
DESCRIPTION:In primates\, male reproductive success is often facilitated by dominance rank. While we have a good understanding of the ultimate benefits that dominance rank provides males\, we know less about how male physiology and phenotypes change as males undergo changes in dominance rank. In this seminar\, I will discuss our ongoing research on the hormonal\, morphological\, olfactory\, and behavioral correlates of male rank acquisition in white faced-capuchins. Changes in male dominance rank are also associated with high rates of infanticide\, which produces extreme sexual conflict. Females have evolved strategies to reduce the occurrence and/or costs of infanticide to female reproductive success. I will discuss our exploration of one potential female strategy\, the Bruce effect - the termination of pregnancy in response to exposure to non-sire males.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Nam Center Colloquium Series | Korean Waves before the Wave
DESCRIPTION:During the second half of the 20th Century\, large portions of the world encountered three significant waves of South Korean cultural export. Prior to the massively successful Korean popular media\, consumer products\, and technology that are globally recognized today\, Tae Kwon Do masters\, Protestant missionaries\, and classical musicians began representing South Korea to other countries. These specifically post-war domains of Korean culture manifest as highly specialized forms of learned expertise and authority\, which passed through explicitly defined and sustained social relations. Unlike the mediatized movement of cultural commodities or the rapid rise and fall of mass consumer trends\, the valorized cultural forms of these earlier waves traveled through face-to-face communication and embodied interaction in relatively intimate settings. This presentation draws out some sociopolitical connections among these three earlier waves of Korean cultural export in order to situate the broader phenomenon within a history of migration\, transnational education\, and the Cold War.\n   \n   Nicholas Harkness is the Modern Korean Economy and Society Professor of Anthropology and Director of the Korea Institute at Harvard University. His long-term ethnographic research in South Korea has focused on language\, music\, and religion within the context of Korea’s massive engagement with Protestant Christianity in the 20th and 21st Centuries. He is the author of Songs of Seoul: An Ethnography of Voice and Voicing in Christian South Korea (University of California Press\, 2014) and Glossolalia and the Problem of Language (University of Chicago Press\, 2021)\, as well as numerous papers in Korean Studies\, linguistic anthropology\, and semiotics. Harkness is the recipient of the Edward Sapir Book Prize\, the Phi Beta Kappa Prize for Excellence in Teaching\, and many fellowships and grants\, including from the Social Science Research Council\, the National Humanities Center\, the Academy of Korean Studies\, and the Korea Foundation. At Harvard\, Harkness also organizes the Roman Jakobson Symposium and the Harvard-Yenching Institute Field Development Program in Linguistic and Semiotic Anthropology.\n\nAttend in person or via Zoom.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:The Radical Lives of Anaerobes and How to Fight Them
DESCRIPTION:Pathogenic bacteria that infect the gastrointestinal and respiratory tract form biofilms that are largely anaerobic\, modulating their metabolic lifestyle and virulence. Many of these microbes utilize acetate fermentation via the enzyme pyruvate formate lyase (PFL)\, which catalyzes the production of acetyl-CoA and formate from pyruvate via a radical mechanism\, enabling additional ATP production and the de novo synthesis of proteins and nucleic acids. We have investigated the mechanism of PFL via mechanism-based inhibitors to reveal the essential role of two cysteine thiyl radicals in catalysis and estimate their reactivity for the first time. Additionally\, we have demonstrated the role of nitric oxide (NO) as an irreversible inhibitor of they glycyl radical enzyme PFL as well as glycyl radical enzymes as a class and their radical S-adenosylmethionine-dependent activases via the production of dinitrosyl iron complexes. These results set the stage for the development of mechanism-based inhibitors of PFL and other glycyl radical enzymes and provide a biochemically informed approach to narrow-spectrum site-specific antibiotic development for the treatment of gastrointestinal and pulmonary disease.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Prison\, a Prisoner\, and a Prison Guard
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a multimedia exploration of the impact of prisons on countries and communities across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region through the lens of “prison art.” The exhibit delves into the dynamic interplay between incarceration and creative expression to make sense of carceral systems.\n\nBy presenting prison art from various countries in the MENA region\, including Algeria\, Egypt\, Iran\, Iraq\, Lebanon\, Palestine\, Sudan\, Syria\, and Yemen\, this exhibit unfolds as a “journey” into the prison system and demonstrates the ways in which art can be a tool of expression and reconciliation for survivors\, detainees’ families\, and society at large. It promotes drawing parallels between the prison experience in the region and worldwide\, highlights the intentionality of carceral systems\, and expands the conversation to include prison-impacted communities. Viewers are invited to navigate the cross-generational\, human experiences of imprisonment often obscured behind prison walls and within individuals.\n\nCurated by Sumaya Tabbah and Susan Aboeid of The Ḥafathah Collective\, this traveling exhibit was organized by U-M Students Organize for Syria (SOS) in partnership with U-M Library and with support from the U-M Arts Initiative.\n\nPlan to attend the related discussion\, \"Art\, Justice\, and Carcerality: The Role of Creative Expression in the Pursuit of Justice\,\" on February 6.

DESCRIPTION:The exhibit \"Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World: Interracial Identity in the U.S. and Around the World — What Research and Mixed Race People Tell Us\" is an exploration into the library's collections about the diversity of mixed race heritage. Through research\, narratives\, demographic data\, and a variety of visual and published materials\, explore multifaceted aspects of mixed race heritage with insights from many perspectives.\n\nThe 2020 U.S. Census illuminated a 276 percent increase in individuals who identify as \"two or more races\" since 2010. In recognition of the growing numbers of mixed race-identifying people at the University of Michigan\, throughout the country\, and across the globe\, we're excited to unveil this new exhibit — a unique exploration of changing demographics and intersectional identities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CREES Exhibition. Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\, an installation by Gluklya
DESCRIPTION:Gluklya’s work is a powerful example of socially engaged art at the intersections of gender\, class\, and cultural identity. By focusing on experiences of female textile workers in Kyrgyzstan\, the artist explores the often-overlooked stories of women affected by Soviet and post-Soviet colonialism. \"Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\" retells their stories using a diverse range of media — film\, sculpture\, watercolors\, and felt tapestries. Unfolding the implications of economic and societal pressures on women\, Gluklya explores issues of poverty\, isolation\, and exploitation among the garment workers.\n   \n   Personal stories are woven into a broader social context — such as the legacy of the \"Likbez\" (liquidation of illiteracy) campaign among women in Central Asia during Soviet rule and entrenched patriarchal traditions\, like \"Ala Kachuu\" (bride-kidnapping). This dynamic — where colonization and modernization intertwine the individual lives they touch — raises questions about cultural identity and the ethical borders of decolonized research.\n\nThis exhibition was curated by CREES alumna Dianne Beal (BA REES '79). See more of her work here: https://www.diannebeal.com/curatorial.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Andy Ross Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The pieces here are from a large series of works made over the last several years. In them\, Ross explores humor and personal meaning through absurd juxtapositions of pairs of wildly varied images. Each single image is stripped of its original context (be it\, for example\, a history book\, an instruction manual\, or a magazine advertisement)\, placed on a white background like some kind of specimen\, and presented afresh with a new “companion image.” These companion images confront\, contrast and converse with each other\, and thereby build new relationships\, narratives\, jokes\, and contexts.\n\nAndy Ross grew up in Macomb County\, and has been making art in various mediums since the 1970s. He received a BFA degree from College for Creative Studies\, and an MFA degree from University of Michigan. He has taught photography\, art\, and web design at colleges in California and Michigan. His photographs and collages have been exhibited in schools\, galleries\, and museums across the United States.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Angkorian Homecoming
DESCRIPTION:Informed by her experience as a refugee\, Phung Huynh’s projects explore the complexities of displacement\, assimilation\, and cultural negotiation among Cambodian and Vietnamese refugees who have resettled in the United States. She creates detailed graphite portraits on pink donut boxes to highlight the stories of Southeast Asians who have survived war trauma and genocide. Huynh’s serigraph prints about Donut Kids foreground intergenerational gaps as well as bridging the refugee parent and American child through the narratives of Cambodian American children who were raised by donut shop owners in California. Huynh’s most recent work of drawings of Cambodian Buddhist statue heads and photographic prints of decapitated statue bodies on fabric addresses the repatriation of looted Cambodian antiquities in the context of challenging the legacy of colonialism\, unethical museum practices\, and the refugee’s desire to return home.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Elizabeth Boyd-Hartmann Dizik Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:This body of work represents a playful exploration of form\, color\, and scale through the lens of cellular shapes. Inspired by the complex patterns of biological life\, the pieces are a celebration of growth\, transformation\, and the joy of experimentation. The use of non-precious materials\, such as wood balls and paint\, allowed for a liberating approach to composition and color\, while the spherical forms and circular panels evoke the look of petri dishes—symbolizing both scientific curiosity and organic development.\nBorn in Detroit\, Elizabeth is a multidisciplinary artist and mother based in the metro Detroit area\, where she works from a studio in her home. With a background in bench jewelry\, her earlier work focused on studio jewelry and was represented by Galerie Noel Guyomarc’h in Montreal.\nElizabeth’s work has been exhibited both locally and internationally. She holds a BA in Jewelry Design\, with First Class Honours\, from Central Saint Martins in London\, a BFA from the University of Michigan\, and an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art\, where she specialized in Metalsmithing and Architecture. Her diverse practice spans jewelry\, sculpture\, and installation\, blending materials and techniques to explore themes of production\, growth\, transformation\, and organic form.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Redefining the Crown
DESCRIPTION:In Winter 2025\, the Lane Hall exhibit space will feature a portraiture series titled Redefining the Crown showcasing the powerful stories of six Black breast cancer survivors.\n\nBased on a photo essay by U-M Faculty Versha Pleasant (MD/MPH) and Ava Purkiss (PhD) in Medicine at Michigan\, this exhibition examines the cultural and personal significance of hair within Black communities\, particularly through the lens of breast cancer treatment and recovery. The term \"crown\" is deeply symbolic in Black culture\, signifying beauty\, strength\, and identity. The featured photo essay by photographer Tafari Stevenson-Howard captures the intimate journeys of Ann Chatman\, Tanisha Kennedy\, Felecia McDaniel\, Shantell Elaine McCoy\, Tamara Lynn Myles\, and Veleria Banks.\n\nThrough their narratives and portraits\, the exhibit examines how these women have navigated the profound impact of hair loss caused by chemotherapy\, inviting the audience to witness their stories with radical empathy. It explores the cultural pride and personal identity intricately tied to their hair\, and how these elements are redefined amidst their battles with breast cancer.\n\nThe exhibit will be on view from January 21\, 2025 to August 8\, 2025. This exhibition is presented with support from IRWG\, the Department of Women's and Gender Studies\, and Michigan Medicine. \n\nLocated on the first floor of Lane Hall (204 S. State Street)\, the Exhibit Space is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich
DESCRIPTION:View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses\, which\, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization\, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship. Features such as exquisite typeface design\, letterpress printing\, handmade paper\, traditional illustration techniques like woodcut and engraving\, and the inclusion of original art by renowned artists highlight the presses' dedication to artistry and detail.\n\nThe display opens with an edition of \"The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer\,\" published in 1896 by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press\, a pivotal press that greatly influenced the development of the private press movement as a means of preserving and revitalizing the fine printing and art traditions of the past. Additionally\, the exhibit includes some examples of artist’s proofs\, offering a glimpse into the intricate creative process behind these exceptional works.\n\nThese books are on loan from the collection of Bill Heidrich\, a long-time supporter of the University of Michigan Library.

SUMMARY:Other:Leaves Under the Lens
DESCRIPTION:The leaf surface is a dynamic landscape where tiny\, specialized structures help plants interact with the world around them. Let’s bring this world into view! Join us for an exhibit that highlights the complex and often beautiful anatomy of leaves from the Matthaei collection. Plants throughout the conservatory will be paired with microscope photographs and micro-CT scans that illustrate the otherwise invisible structures that protect leaves from chewing insects\, absorb (or repel!) water\, and even recruit “bodyguards”. You won’t look at leaves the same way again! \n\nThis project is a collaboration between MBGNA and the Weber and Vasconcelos labs in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\, led by PhD student Rosemary Glos.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:8-BIT Music Exhibit: The Gallery
DESCRIPTION:MORE INFO: https://sites.lsa.umich.edu/8bitmusic/ \n\nThe 8-Bit Music Exhibit is a week-long exploration of the creation of the nostalgic\, retro tunes many have grown up with and come to love\, as well as a showcase of how such music has been reclaimed and repurposed for continued existence in the modern world. The gallery plans to guide viewers through a history of 8-bit music\, its significance to media and video games of its time\, and notable figures that influenced the legacy of the niched genre. In the workshop\, participants will learn how modern chiptune artists create music from Game Boys and the production software LSDJ\, and have the opportunity to create music of their own design. Throughout the end of the exhibit week\, we will celebrate the historic and modern legacies of 8-bit music in a set of live performances produced by Norah\, a seasoned chiptune artist.\n\nOur goal in developing this exhibit is to highlight 8-bit/chiptune music as a unique form of digital art celebrated for its sound\, cultural significance\, and innovation. Throughout the lifespans of the original hardware supporting this music\, artists often faced limitations due to hardware constraints. These difficulties led to early video game industry composers inventing new techniques and methods for music creation that have evolved over time and remain influential today.\n\nTHANK YOU to our co-sponsors and partners for your support in the creation of this event!\n-> U-M LSA Technology Services Digital Scholarship (https://lsa.umich.edu/technology-services/services/research-tools/digital-scholarship.html)\n-> U-M Digital Studies Institute (https://www.digitalstudies.umich.edu/)\n-> U-M Arts Initiative (https://arts.umich.edu/arts-initiative)\n-> Neutral Zone (https://www.neutral-zone.org/event-list/2025/4/11/free-tech-workshop-chiptune-8-bit)\n-> Ann Arbor District Libraries (https://aadl.org/)\n-> Ypsilanti District Libraries (https://www.ypsilibrary.org/)\n-> Pinball Pete's in Ann Arbor (https://www.pinballpetes.org/copy-of-east-lansing-location)\n-> Video Game Music Club (VGMC) (https://maizepages.umich.edu/organization/vgmc)\n-> WolvSec (https://wolvsec.org/)\n-> LGBTQ+ Michigan (https://websites.umich.edu/~lgbtqmichigan/#)\n-> Ann Arbor Fighting Game Community at the University of Michigan (FGC) (https://maizepages.umich.edu/organization/a2fgc)

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Welcome. Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle. Gather to feel full\, to be moved and inspired by all the possible imaginations of what is yet to come.\n \nCurated by Félix Zamora Gómez Irving Stenn\, Jr. Fellow in Public Humanities & Museum Pedagogy\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism
DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n

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).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Brown Bag Seminar |  Effective $AdS_3/CFT_2$\; Life is simpler without black holes
DESCRIPTION:The holographic dual to string theory in $AdS_3 x N$ has always been a fundamental question in high-energy theoretical physics. To this day\, we don't know the answer to this question in full generality. In this talk\, I'll propose an effective holographic dual to type IIB string theory in $AdS_3 x N$ in the presence of pure NS-NS flux. The dual boundary CFT takes the form of a p-fold symmetric product of $(R_\phi \times N)$ deformed by a $\phi$-dependent $Z_2$-twisted marginal operator. I'll explain how an exact worldsheet computation allows us to identify this marginal operator. \n\nWhen the radius of $AdS_3$\, $R_{ads}$\, is sub-stringy\, the CFT spectrum doesn't contain neither a normalizable vacuum nor the BTZ black hole states. The proposed holographic duality in this case is an exact one. On the other hand\, when $R_{ads}/l_s >1$\, the full boundary CFT does have a normalizable vacuum and the BTZ black hole states at high energies. The proposed duality in this case is an effective one and holds only for the perturbative string states in the spectrum. Finally\, I'll quote some of the checks that have been performed to test this duality.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:8-BIT Music Exhibit: The Workshop
DESCRIPTION:MORE INFO: https://sites.lsa.umich.edu/8bitmusic/\nRSVP is required. RSVP HERE: https://sessions.studentlife.umich.edu/track/event/session/92827\n\nIN THE WORKSHOP\, participants will learn how modern chiptune artists create music from Game Boys and the production software LSDJ\, and have the opportunity to create music of their own design. This is one featured event of the larger 8-Bit Music Exhibit.\n\nThe 8-Bit Music Exhibit is a week-long exploration of the creation of the nostalgic\, retro tunes many have grown up with and come to love\, as well as a showcase of how such music has been reclaimed and repurposed for continued existence in the modern world. \n\nOur goal in developing this exhibit is to highlight 8-bit/chiptune music as a unique form of digital art celebrated for its sound\, cultural significance\, and innovation. Throughout the lifespans of the original hardware supporting this music\, artists often faced limitations due to hardware constraints. These difficulties led to early video game industry composers inventing new techniques and methods for music creation that have evolved over time and remain influential today.\n\nTHANK YOU to our co-sponsors and partners for your support in the creation of this event!\n-> U-M LSA Technology Services Digital Scholarship (https://lsa.umich.edu/technology-services/services/research-tools/digital-scholarship.html)\n-> U-M Digital Studies Institute (https://www.digitalstudies.umich.edu/)\n-> U-M Arts Initiative (https://arts.umich.edu/arts-initiative)\n-> Neutral Zone (https://www.neutral-zone.org/event-list/2025/4/11/free-tech-workshop-chiptune-8-bit)\n-> Ann Arbor District Libraries (https://aadl.org/)\n-> Ypsilanti District Libraries (https://www.ypsilibrary.org/)\n-> Pinball Pete's in Ann Arbor (https://www.pinballpetes.org/copy-of-east-lansing-location)\n-> Video Game Music Club (VGMC) (https://maizepages.umich.edu/organization/vgmc)\n-> WolvSec (https://wolvsec.org/)\n-> LGBTQ+ Michigan (https://websites.umich.edu/~lgbtqmichigan/#)\n-> Ann Arbor Fighting Game Community at the University of Michigan (FGC) (https://maizepages.umich.edu/organization/a2fgc)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Interdisciplinary QC-CM Seminar | Molecular orbitals in Quantum Magnets and High-temperature Superconductors
DESCRIPTION:Molecular orbitals (MOs) in inorganic crystalline solids arise as a peculiar result of an intricate interplay between structural geometry\, favourable hierarchies of hybridization pathways\, and strong local electronic correlations. When involved in low-energy physics\, MOs often give rise to intriguing physical effects\, expanding experimentally accessible regions of quantum phase diagrams and providing new ways to tune material properties. In this talk\, I will present two examples of quantum MO systems: (1) Ti_4 MnBi_2\, a one dimensional metallic spin-½ system\, and (2) La_3 Ni_2 O_7\, a member of the most recently discovered Ni-based family of high-temperature superconductors. Using these examples\, I will attempt to not only illustrate the rich physics of MOs in action but also highlight the challenges that such systems pose at various levels of condensed matter theory\, from ab initio electronic structure calculations to model-based and analytical approaches.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Learning Seminar in Algebraic Combinatorics: A Brief History of Intersection Theory (second lecture)
DESCRIPTION:Early remarkable discoveries in intersection theory go back to\n1849\, when algebraic geometry as we know it was just beginning.  \nSchubert (and others) during the next half century found\nmany amazing formulas\, but without solid proofs or foundations.  \nHilbert's 15th problem asked for such foundations.  Providing\nthem involved developments in topology\, algebra\, and algebraic\ngeometry\, although the required rigor remained a challenge for\nsome time.  \n\nMy aim is to emphasize some of the less well known parts of this\nstory\, as well as to point out some of the common misconceptions.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Minimum Wages and Workplace Injuries with Michael Davies and R Jisung Park
DESCRIPTION:Do minimum wage changes affect workplace health and safety? Using the universe of workers' compensation claims in California over 2000-2019\, we estimate whether minimum wage shocks affect the rate of workplace injuries. Our identification exploits both geographic variation in state- and city-level minimum wages and local occupation-level variation in exposure to minimum wage changes. We find that a 10% increase in the minimum wage increases the injury rate by 11% in an occupation-metro area labor market which is fully exposed to the minimum wage increase. Our results imply an elasticity of the workplace injury rate to minimum-wage-induced wage changes of 1.4. We find particularly large effects on injuries relating to cumulative physical strain\, suggesting that employers respond to minimum wage increases by intensifying the pace of work\, which in turn increases injury risk. A back-of-the-envelope calculation suggests that the increase in injury risk offsets around 10% of the welfare improvement workers see as a result of higher wages.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | Hunting for Ghosts with Rare Isotope Doped Advanced Sensors
DESCRIPTION:Nuclear beta and electron capture (EC) decay serve as sensitive probes of the structure and symmetries at the microscopic scale of our Universe. As such\, precision measurements of the final-state products in these processes can be used as powerful laboratories to search for new physics from the meV to TeV scale\, as well as addressing fundamental questions of quantum mechanics at the subatomic scale. Significant advances in “rare isotope” availability and quality\, coupled with decades of sensing technique development from the AMO community have led us into a new era of fundamental tests of nature using unstable nuclei. For the past few years\, we have taken the approach of embedding radioisotopes in thin-film superconducting tunnel junctions (STJs) to precisely measure the recoiling atom that gets an eV-scale “kick” from the neutrino following EC decay. These recoils are encoded with the fundamental quantum information of the neutrino and decay process\, as well as carrying unique signatures of weakly coupled beyond standard model (BSM) physics\; including neutrino mass\, exotic weak currents\, and potential “dark” particles created within the energy-window of the decay. These measurements provide a complimentary and (crucially) model-independent portal to the dark sector with sensitivities that push towards synergy between laboratory and cosmological probes. In this talk\, I will discuss the broad program we have developed to provide leading limits in these areas as well as the technological advances across several sub-disciplines of science required to enable this work\, including subatomic physics\, quantum engineering\, atomic theory\, and materials science. Finally\, I will discuss future prospects of extending this work using macroscopic amounts of harvested exotic atoms from the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) in optically levitated nanospheres for direct momentum measurements of the decay recoils.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Number Theory: The Fontaine-Wintenberger theorem
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Let K be a perfectoid field of mixed characteristic (0\, p). Then\, one can form the tilt K^♭ of K\, which is a perfectoid field of characteristic p. The Fontaine-Wintenberger theorem says that the absolute Galois group of K and the absolute Galois group of K^♭ are isomorphic. In this talk\, we will define the tilting functor and construct its inverse using the Witt vectors. Then\, we will see a more conceptual proof using the almost purity theorem. This proof also motivated Scholze to define perfectoid algebras.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MIPSE Seminar | RF Plasma Cathodes and Other Research Activities in the Plasma Propulsion Group at NRL
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThis talk discusses recent work on RF plasma cathodes\, propellant agnostic electron sources for electric propulsion systems that enable new deep space exploration mission architectures such as in-situ resource utilization. We develop the fundamental theory for these devices and demonstrate its effectiveness at determining I-V characteristics and performance. From our measurements and model\, we project thruster performance and discuss the consequences for space exploration. Then we dive into non-ideal behavior that can be exhibited in these cathodes including sheath expansion and mode transitions. The remainder of the discussion will overview other plasma-related research activities in the NRL propulsion group.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nDr. Marcel Georgin is an Aerospace Engineer at the Naval Research Laboratory in Washington\, D.C. He earned his bachelor’s degree in physics from McGill University in Montreal\, Canada\, and his Ph.D. in applied physics from the University of Michigan where he studied plasma instabilities in electron sources for electric propulsion systems. His research interests are at the intersection of plasma physics and engineering\, with a strong focus on space propulsion. He is currently working on a variety of plasma-related topics\, including propellant agnostic electron sources\, hypersonics environmental simulation\, advanced thermionic cathodes\, and more.\n\nThe seminar will be conducted in person and simulcast via Zoom: https://mipse.umich.edu/seminars_2425.php#winter2025

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Algebraic Geometry Seminar:  Nontautological Cycles on Moduli Spaces of Smooth Curves
DESCRIPTION:The cohomology of the moduli space of stable curves has been widely studied\, but in general\, understanding the full cohomology ring of this space is too much to ask.  Instead\, one generally settles for studying the tautological ring\, a subring of the cohomology that is simultaneously tractable to study and yet rich enough to contain most cohomology classes of geometric interest.  The first known example of an algebraic cohomology class that is *not* tautological was discovered by Graber and Pandharipande\, in work that was later significantly generalized by van Zelm to produce an infinite family of non-tautological classes on the moduli space of stable curves.  A similar study can be undertaken on the moduli space of smooth curves\, but in this case\, almost no non-tautological classes were previously known. I will report on joint work with V. Arena\, S. Canning\, R. Haburcak\, A. Li\, S.C. Mok\, and C. Tamborini (from the 2023 AGNES Summer School)\, in which we produce non-tautological algebraic classes on the moduli space of smooth curves in an infinite family of cases\, including on M_g for all g>15.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Adaptive Optimal Market Making Strategies with Inventory Liquidation Cost
DESCRIPTION:A novel high-frequency market-making approach in discrete time is proposed that admits closed-form solutions. By taking advantage of demand functions that are linear in the quoted bid and ask spreads with random coefficients\, we model the variability of the partial filling of limit orders posted in a limit order book (LOB). The most important feature of our optimal placement strategy is that it can react or adapt to the behavior of market orders online. Using LOB data\, we train our model and reproduce the anticipated final profit and loss of the optimal strategy on a given testing date using real LOB data. Our adaptive optimal strategies outperform the non-adaptive strategy and those that quote limit orders at a fixed distance from the midprice. We proceed to explore other extensions of the proposed approach.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Center for Emerging Democracies Book Talk. Policing the Revolution: The Transformation of Security and Violence in Venezuela during Chavismo
DESCRIPTION:Attend in person or via Zoom. Zoom registration at   https://myumi.ch/XGe2A\n\nSince the mid-2000s Venezuela has been ranked one of the most violent countries in the world as homicides and police violence skyrocketed. Much has been written about the country’s turn to Chavismo but scholarship has ignored what will perhaps be the revolution’s most important legacy: how Chavista policies transformed coercive power and the security landscape.\n   \nIn Policing the Revolution\, Rebecca Hanson provides the first in-depth analysis of policing and security policies during the Bolivarian Revolution in Venezuela\, focusing on the experiences of three groups: police officers\, police reformers\, and residents of neighborhoods most affected by violence. Drawing on ethnographic\, interview\, and survey research collected over ten years\, she analyzes how security policies within the context of the pink tide and later turn to authoritarianism contributed to the expansion of lateral violence and the pluralization of non-state armed actors. Far from the always-already authoritarian project proposed by many scholars and pundits\, Hanson shows that the Bolivarian Revolution was defined by highly contested and contrasting visions of security that resulted in a fragmented and inconsistent ordering of state and society. Moreover\, by pairing the vantage point of street-level police officers with that of ordinary barrio residents\, she provides a unique analysis of how insecurity during revolution was experienced “from below.”\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RTG Seminar on Geometry\, Dynamics and Topology:  Selberg\, Ihara and Berkovich
DESCRIPTION:We use the Selberg zeta function to study the limit behavior of resonances of a degenerating family of Kleinian Schottky groups. We prove that\, after a suitable rescaling\, the Selberg zeta functions converge to the Ihara zeta function of a limiting finite graph associated with the relevant non-Archimedean Schottky group acting on the Berkovich projective line. Moreover\, our techniques can be used to obtain effective statements. One key idea is to introduce an intermediate zeta function that captures Archimedean and non-Archimedean information (while the Selberg resp. Ihara zeta function concerns only Archimedean resp. non-Archimedean properties). This is a joint work with Jialun Li\, Carlos Matheus\, and Zhongkai Tao.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Orren C. Mohler Prize Lecture
DESCRIPTION:\"Simulated Universes: Origin and Fate of Our Milky Way\"\n\nGalaxies contain hundreds of billions of stars and display a wide variety of shapes and sizes. But these cosmic lighthouses are just markers for even much vaster structures lying underneath. In fact\, astrophysicists are convinced that the vast majority of the energy and matter content of the Universe does not consist of ordinary matter\, but is dominated by enigmatic dark matter and dark energy components. Supercomputer simulations play a crucial role in testing this seemingly daring cosmological hypothesis. The astonishing performance of today's supercomputers makes it possible to link the relatively simple initial conditions left by the Big Bang directly with the complex\, developed state of the present universe and thus trace the life of galaxies in detail. They show how a cosmic network of dark matter is created over 13 billion years\, at the intersections of which structures of various sizes form\, from small dwarf galaxies to enormous galaxy clusters. The supercomputers also make predictions about the specific formation history of the Milky Way\, and how it should develop in the future. At the same time\, the simulations can also help us to explain extreme phenomena such as the effect of supermassive black holes on the cosmic evolution of galaxies.

SUMMARY:Performance:Les Arts Florissants
DESCRIPTION:When first published in 1725\, nobody could imagine that Vivaldi’s Four Seasons would become some of the most frequently-heard music of all time. This program frames the iconic concertos in a new light\, inviting questions about the fleeting cyclical nature of our existence\, our relationship with nature\, and the eternal renewal of earth’s cycles\, now being modified by climate change. The program starts with Monteverdi\, a composer born 100 years before Vivaldi\, and continues with Uccellini and Geminiani before turning into a joyful celebration of Vivaldi’s major opus three centuries after it was composed.\n\nFeatured Artist:\nThéotime Langlois de Swarte\, violin\n\nPROGRAM\nClaudio Monteverdi Adoramus te\, SV 289\nAntonio Vivaldi Concerto for strings and basso continuo\, RV 129 (“Madrigalesco”)\nMarco Uccellini Bergamasca\nVivaldi Concerto in d minor\, RV 813\nFrancesco Geminiani Concerto No. 12 in d minor “La Folia” (after Corelli)\nVivaldi Concerto in E Major\, Op. 8\, No. 1\, RV 269 (“Spring”)\nVivaldi Concerto in g minor\, Op. 8\, No. 2\, RV 315 (“Summer”)\nVivaldi Overture to La fida ninfa (“The Faithful Nymph”)\, RV 714\nVivaldi Concerto in F Major\, Op. 8\, No. 3\, RV 293 (“Autumn”)\nVivaldi Grave from Violin Concerto in B-flat Major\, RV 370\nVivaldi Concerto in f minor\, Op. 8\, No. 4\, RV 297 (“Winter”)

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Prison\, a Prisoner\, and a Prison Guard
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a multimedia exploration of the impact of prisons on countries and communities across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region through the lens of “prison art.” The exhibit delves into the dynamic interplay between incarceration and creative expression to make sense of carceral systems.\n\nBy presenting prison art from various countries in the MENA region\, including Algeria\, Egypt\, Iran\, Iraq\, Lebanon\, Palestine\, Sudan\, Syria\, and Yemen\, this exhibit unfolds as a “journey” into the prison system and demonstrates the ways in which art can be a tool of expression and reconciliation for survivors\, detainees’ families\, and society at large. It promotes drawing parallels between the prison experience in the region and worldwide\, highlights the intentionality of carceral systems\, and expands the conversation to include prison-impacted communities. Viewers are invited to navigate the cross-generational\, human experiences of imprisonment often obscured behind prison walls and within individuals.\n\nCurated by Sumaya Tabbah and Susan Aboeid of The Ḥafathah Collective\, this traveling exhibit was organized by U-M Students Organize for Syria (SOS) in partnership with U-M Library and with support from the U-M Arts Initiative.\n\nPlan to attend the related discussion\, \"Art\, Justice\, and Carcerality: The Role of Creative Expression in the Pursuit of Justice\,\" on February 6.

DESCRIPTION:The exhibit \"Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World: Interracial Identity in the U.S. and Around the World — What Research and Mixed Race People Tell Us\" is an exploration into the library's collections about the diversity of mixed race heritage. Through research\, narratives\, demographic data\, and a variety of visual and published materials\, explore multifaceted aspects of mixed race heritage with insights from many perspectives.\n\nThe 2020 U.S. Census illuminated a 276 percent increase in individuals who identify as \"two or more races\" since 2010. In recognition of the growing numbers of mixed race-identifying people at the University of Michigan\, throughout the country\, and across the globe\, we're excited to unveil this new exhibit — a unique exploration of changing demographics and intersectional identities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CREES Exhibition. Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\, an installation by Gluklya
DESCRIPTION:Gluklya’s work is a powerful example of socially engaged art at the intersections of gender\, class\, and cultural identity. By focusing on experiences of female textile workers in Kyrgyzstan\, the artist explores the often-overlooked stories of women affected by Soviet and post-Soviet colonialism. \"Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\" retells their stories using a diverse range of media — film\, sculpture\, watercolors\, and felt tapestries. Unfolding the implications of economic and societal pressures on women\, Gluklya explores issues of poverty\, isolation\, and exploitation among the garment workers.\n   \n   Personal stories are woven into a broader social context — such as the legacy of the \"Likbez\" (liquidation of illiteracy) campaign among women in Central Asia during Soviet rule and entrenched patriarchal traditions\, like \"Ala Kachuu\" (bride-kidnapping). This dynamic — where colonization and modernization intertwine the individual lives they touch — raises questions about cultural identity and the ethical borders of decolonized research.\n\nThis exhibition was curated by CREES alumna Dianne Beal (BA REES '79). See more of her work here: https://www.diannebeal.com/curatorial.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:WCEE Exhibition. Threads of Tradition: The Art of Ukrainian Vyshyvanka
DESCRIPTION:The act of embroidering and weaving designs onto cloth is deeply rooted in Ukrainian traditions. Embellished clothing (sorochky)\, ritual cloths (rushnyky)\, and household textiles accompany a person from birth until death\, punctuating important life events in between. A variety of embroidery patterns are used throughout Ukraine\; some stitches are universally known\, while others are region-specific.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Andy Ross Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The pieces here are from a large series of works made over the last several years. In them\, Ross explores humor and personal meaning through absurd juxtapositions of pairs of wildly varied images. Each single image is stripped of its original context (be it\, for example\, a history book\, an instruction manual\, or a magazine advertisement)\, placed on a white background like some kind of specimen\, and presented afresh with a new “companion image.” These companion images confront\, contrast and converse with each other\, and thereby build new relationships\, narratives\, jokes\, and contexts.\n\nAndy Ross grew up in Macomb County\, and has been making art in various mediums since the 1970s. He received a BFA degree from College for Creative Studies\, and an MFA degree from University of Michigan. He has taught photography\, art\, and web design at colleges in California and Michigan. His photographs and collages have been exhibited in schools\, galleries\, and museums across the United States.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Angkorian Homecoming
DESCRIPTION:Informed by her experience as a refugee\, Phung Huynh’s projects explore the complexities of displacement\, assimilation\, and cultural negotiation among Cambodian and Vietnamese refugees who have resettled in the United States. She creates detailed graphite portraits on pink donut boxes to highlight the stories of Southeast Asians who have survived war trauma and genocide. Huynh’s serigraph prints about Donut Kids foreground intergenerational gaps as well as bridging the refugee parent and American child through the narratives of Cambodian American children who were raised by donut shop owners in California. Huynh’s most recent work of drawings of Cambodian Buddhist statue heads and photographic prints of decapitated statue bodies on fabric addresses the repatriation of looted Cambodian antiquities in the context of challenging the legacy of colonialism\, unethical museum practices\, and the refugee’s desire to return home.

DESCRIPTION:Artist John Rizzo is exhibiting individual mixed-media sculptures that bridge across art\, design\, and craft. Using a combination of materials that are historically perceived as precious John's work distorts\, disrupts\, and re-contextualizes perceptions of materials and their values. His work is at once \, colorful \, playful \, layered and deeply self-reflective in its personal narrative.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Elizabeth Boyd-Hartmann Dizik Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:This body of work represents a playful exploration of form\, color\, and scale through the lens of cellular shapes. Inspired by the complex patterns of biological life\, the pieces are a celebration of growth\, transformation\, and the joy of experimentation. The use of non-precious materials\, such as wood balls and paint\, allowed for a liberating approach to composition and color\, while the spherical forms and circular panels evoke the look of petri dishes—symbolizing both scientific curiosity and organic development.\nBorn in Detroit\, Elizabeth is a multidisciplinary artist and mother based in the metro Detroit area\, where she works from a studio in her home. With a background in bench jewelry\, her earlier work focused on studio jewelry and was represented by Galerie Noel Guyomarc’h in Montreal.\nElizabeth’s work has been exhibited both locally and internationally. She holds a BA in Jewelry Design\, with First Class Honours\, from Central Saint Martins in London\, a BFA from the University of Michigan\, and an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art\, where she specialized in Metalsmithing and Architecture. Her diverse practice spans jewelry\, sculpture\, and installation\, blending materials and techniques to explore themes of production\, growth\, transformation\, and organic form.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Redefining the Crown
DESCRIPTION:In Winter 2025\, the Lane Hall exhibit space will feature a portraiture series titled Redefining the Crown showcasing the powerful stories of six Black breast cancer survivors.\n\nBased on a photo essay by U-M Faculty Versha Pleasant (MD/MPH) and Ava Purkiss (PhD) in Medicine at Michigan\, this exhibition examines the cultural and personal significance of hair within Black communities\, particularly through the lens of breast cancer treatment and recovery. The term \"crown\" is deeply symbolic in Black culture\, signifying beauty\, strength\, and identity. The featured photo essay by photographer Tafari Stevenson-Howard captures the intimate journeys of Ann Chatman\, Tanisha Kennedy\, Felecia McDaniel\, Shantell Elaine McCoy\, Tamara Lynn Myles\, and Veleria Banks.\n\nThrough their narratives and portraits\, the exhibit examines how these women have navigated the profound impact of hair loss caused by chemotherapy\, inviting the audience to witness their stories with radical empathy. It explores the cultural pride and personal identity intricately tied to their hair\, and how these elements are redefined amidst their battles with breast cancer.\n\nThe exhibit will be on view from January 21\, 2025 to August 8\, 2025. This exhibition is presented with support from IRWG\, the Department of Women's and Gender Studies\, and Michigan Medicine. \n\nLocated on the first floor of Lane Hall (204 S. State Street)\, the Exhibit Space is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich
DESCRIPTION:View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses\, which\, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization\, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship. Features such as exquisite typeface design\, letterpress printing\, handmade paper\, traditional illustration techniques like woodcut and engraving\, and the inclusion of original art by renowned artists highlight the presses' dedication to artistry and detail.\n\nThe display opens with an edition of \"The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer\,\" published in 1896 by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press\, a pivotal press that greatly influenced the development of the private press movement as a means of preserving and revitalizing the fine printing and art traditions of the past. Additionally\, the exhibit includes some examples of artist’s proofs\, offering a glimpse into the intricate creative process behind these exceptional works.\n\nThese books are on loan from the collection of Bill Heidrich\, a long-time supporter of the University of Michigan Library.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Welcome. Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle. Gather to feel full\, to be moved and inspired by all the possible imaginations of what is yet to come.\n \nCurated by Félix Zamora Gómez Irving Stenn\, Jr. Fellow in Public Humanities & Museum Pedagogy\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n

SUMMARY:Other:Leaves Under the Lens
DESCRIPTION:The leaf surface is a dynamic landscape where tiny\, specialized structures help plants interact with the world around them. Let’s bring this world into view! Join us for an exhibit that highlights the complex and often beautiful anatomy of leaves from the Matthaei collection. Plants throughout the conservatory will be paired with microscope photographs and micro-CT scans that illustrate the otherwise invisible structures that protect leaves from chewing insects\, absorb (or repel!) water\, and even recruit “bodyguards”. You won’t look at leaves the same way again! \n\nThis project is a collaboration between MBGNA and the Weber and Vasconcelos labs in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\, led by PhD student Rosemary Glos.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism
DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:8-BIT Music Exhibit: The Gallery
DESCRIPTION:MORE INFO: https://sites.lsa.umich.edu/8bitmusic/ \n\nThe 8-Bit Music Exhibit is a week-long exploration of the creation of the nostalgic\, retro tunes many have grown up with and come to love\, as well as a showcase of how such music has been reclaimed and repurposed for continued existence in the modern world. The gallery plans to guide viewers through a history of 8-bit music\, its significance to media and video games of its time\, and notable figures that influenced the legacy of the niched genre. In the workshop\, participants will learn how modern chiptune artists create music from Game Boys and the production software LSDJ\, and have the opportunity to create music of their own design. Throughout the end of the exhibit week\, we will celebrate the historic and modern legacies of 8-bit music in a set of live performances produced by Norah\, a seasoned chiptune artist.\n\nOur goal in developing this exhibit is to highlight 8-bit/chiptune music as a unique form of digital art celebrated for its sound\, cultural significance\, and innovation. Throughout the lifespans of the original hardware supporting this music\, artists often faced limitations due to hardware constraints. These difficulties led to early video game industry composers inventing new techniques and methods for music creation that have evolved over time and remain influential today.\n\nTHANK YOU to our co-sponsors and partners for your support in the creation of this event!\n-> U-M LSA Technology Services Digital Scholarship (https://lsa.umich.edu/technology-services/services/research-tools/digital-scholarship.html)\n-> U-M Digital Studies Institute (https://www.digitalstudies.umich.edu/)\n-> U-M Arts Initiative (https://arts.umich.edu/arts-initiative)\n-> Neutral Zone (https://www.neutral-zone.org/event-list/2025/4/11/free-tech-workshop-chiptune-8-bit)\n-> Ann Arbor District Libraries (https://aadl.org/)\n-> Ypsilanti District Libraries (https://www.ypsilibrary.org/)\n-> Pinball Pete's in Ann Arbor (https://www.pinballpetes.org/copy-of-east-lansing-location)\n-> Video Game Music Club (VGMC) (https://maizepages.umich.edu/organization/vgmc)\n-> WolvSec (https://wolvsec.org/)\n-> LGBTQ+ Michigan (https://websites.umich.edu/~lgbtqmichigan/#)\n-> Ann Arbor Fighting Game Community at the University of Michigan (FGC) (https://maizepages.umich.edu/organization/a2fgc)

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.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Urban-Biased Growth
DESCRIPTION:After 1980\, larger US cities experienced substantially faster wage growth than smaller ones. We show that this urban bias mainly reflected wage growth at large Business Services firms. These firms stand out through their high per-worker expenditure on information technology and disproportionate presence in big cities. We introduce a spatial model of investment-specific technical change that can rationalize these patterns. Using the model as an accounting framework\, we find that the observed decline in the investment price of information technology capital explains most urban-biased growth by raising the profits of large Business Services firms in big cities.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series | Uneven Development and Rural Decline: The Other Side of Japan's Economic Miracle
DESCRIPTION:Please note: This lecture will be in-person only in Weiser 110 and will not be recorded.\n\nJapan’s high-speed economic growth was coming to an end by the early 1970s\, and contradictions inherent in the capitalist economy became increasingly evident throughout this decade. In this talk\, Professor Sasaki discusses uneven development between the city and the countryside during this period as one manifestation of these contradictions and examines how it was imagined and contested in cultural representations.\n   \n   Tomoyuki Sasaki is a professor of Japanese studies at the College of William & Mary. He is also an affiliate of the Center for Japanese Studies at U-M. He specializes in Japanese history and cultural studies. He is the author of *Japan's Postwar Military and Civil Society* (Bloomsbury\, 2015) and *Cinema of Discontent: Representations of Japan's High-Speed Growth* (SUNY Press\, 2022).\n   \n   *This lecture is made possible with the generous support of the U.S. Department of Education Title VI grant.*\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at cjsevents@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Fighting Jim Crow in Britain: A Transatlantic Interpretation of the Battle of Bamber Bridge (1943) with
DESCRIPTION:Full Synopsis\nOn the night of 24 June 1943\, a mutiny against racist Jim Crow practices took place in the small British village of Bamber Bridge\, Lancashire. The villagers and the African American troops stationed there saw each other as allies in a fight with a shared enemy\, Nazi Germany\, and refused American military demands to impose segregation. This led to fighting between the white military police and soldiers from the 1511 Black Quartermaster Truck Division\, with over 400 live rounds being fired. One of the African American soldiers\, Private William Crossland\, died on the village streets. Afterward 35 soldiers were tried for mutiny and 31 convicted. This battle galvanised the fight for civil rights that unfolded over the ensuing decades but remains little known in the US.  I situate the mutiny as part of the wider Double-V campaign and in the context of the Detroit riots which happened a few days before\; furthermore\, I outline the importance of this incident for an understanding of the Transnational fight against Jim Crow and for human rights by African Americans in a segregated army far from home. My article in The Conversation has attracted 500\,000 views since its publication in 2018 and numerous documentaries\, film-makers and dramatists are collaborating with me in making sure this incident is brought to wider attention for until it was featured on NPR during the 80th anniversary in 2024 (around 50m listeners) it was mainly unheard about in the USA.\nAlan Rice biography:\nAlan Rice is Professor in English and American Studies at UCLan\, Preston and co-director of the Institute for Black Atlantic Research (IBAR). His books include\, Radical Narratives of the Black Atlantic (2003)\, Creating Memorials\, Building Identities: The Politics of Memory in the Black Atlantic (2010) & (co-written) Inside the Invisible: Memorialising Slavery and Freedom in the Life and Works of Lubaina Himid (2019). He was a member of the Slave Trade Arts Memorial Project in Lancaster from 2000-2007\, co-curated Trade and Empire: Remembering Slavery at the Whitworth Gallery in 2007 and has been involved in a variety of documentaries and dramas with the BBC and other arts and media companies including being consultant to Studio Canal for their 2022 release The Railway Children Return. In 2021 he curated the exhibition Lubaina Himid: Memorial to Zong and in 2023 co-curated Facing the Past: Black Lancastrians. Working with local Black History groups he has rolled out his Lancaster Slave Trade Tour and organised commemorations\, supported by the Embassy of the United States\, for the Battle of Bamber Bridge where African American soldiers in WW2 fought Jim Crow racism on British shores. In 2025 he is Fulbright Visiting Professor at the University of Michigan.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Brain Aging and What You Can Do About It
DESCRIPTION:Professor Polk will present findings from the Computational & Cognitive Neuroscience Lab on the neural architecture that underlies cognition\, that is\, the set of fixed neural structures and processes that give rise to cognition. What are the parts\, how do they work\, and how do they interact to produce the mind? Ultimately\, researchers aim to understand how the cognitive architecture is determined (e.g.\, which aspects are genetic)\, how the architecture changes as a result of experience and normal aging\, and how it normally functions. He will discuss brain aging and what can be done about it\, including how the brain changes as we age and steps we can take to age more gracefully.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Hurt\, Baby\, Hurt — Book Launch
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the reissue of the book \"Hurt\, Baby\, Hurt\" — a memoir about the 1967 Detroit Rebellion by William Walter Scott\, III. First published in 1970\, the book recounts Scott's life from his birth through the rebellion. Guest speakers include Austin McCoy\, West Virginia University\, who wrote the insightful introduction for the new edition of the book\, and Bill McGraw\, journalist and author.\n\nThe rebellion was the bloodiest of the urban riots in the U.S. during the summer of 1967. It began when police raided an unlicensed drinking club owned by Scott’s father and continued for five days\, resulting in forty-three deaths plus many more injuries\, fires\, and arrests. Scott\, who was 19 at the time and working as a doorman at his father’s club\, is widely recognized as the man who started the rebellion by throwing a bottle at one of the police officers.\n\nThe reissue will be available for purchase in paperback and as an Open Access ebook in April\, 2025. This project was made possible by support from two library divisions: University of Michigan Press (https://myumi.ch/pkn2y) and Special Collections Research Center (Joseph A. Labadie Collection).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:IOE 899: The burdens and blessings of being upright - on the costs and benefits of extraordinary human shoulder function
DESCRIPTION:Presenter Bio:\n\nClark Dickerson (PhD) is a Professor of Kinesiology and Health Sciences at the University of Waterloo\, where he has been since 2005. His research focuses on human musculoskeletal biomechanics\, particularly of the shoulder. He earned his BSME at Alfred University\, his MS in bioengineering from Clemson University\, and his PhD in biomedical engineering from the University of Michigan. His current research interests include the development and experimental evaluation of computational shoulder models\, digital ergonomics\, age and disease-related shoulder disorder prevention\, assessment\, and mitigation\, in vitro tissue mechanical characterization\, and comparative and developmental shoulder mechanics. His work also extends to the design and evaluation of assistive devices\, including upper limb exoskeletons and therapeutic soft robots. Dr. Dickerson is an author of over 150 peer-reviewed research articles and over 300 conference and invited talks. He is a past-president of Canadian Society for Biomechanics and past-chairperson of the Board of the International Shoulder Group (a technical group of the International Society of Biomechanics). He also recently completed a 10-year term as the Canada Research Chair in Shoulder Mechanics.\n\n\n\n\nAbstract:\n\nHuman shoulders are staggeringly unique amongst Earth species. They enable amazing capabilities\, including complex tool manipulation and high-speed accurate throwing\, but these traits are accompanied by vulnerabilities to many aspects of modern life. This talk will summarize investigations into primary shoulder function and dysfunction and related applications in work\, sport\, and daily life.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Biomedical Engineering Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Brain-Computer Interfaces for People with Paralysis\nAbstract:\nPresently\, those suffering from tetraplegia after an injury or illness have little hope for significant motor restoration. Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) have shown tremendous promise for controlling robotic arms and computer tablets as well as restoring somatosensory function. Dr. Willsey’s work focuses on developing an entry level brain-computer interface to help restore motor function for people with paralysis. \n\nThe seminar covers the basic principles of BCI technology\, available recording systems (e.g.\, electroencephalography\, electrocorticography\, and microelectrode arrays)\, and controllable effectors\, along with development of a state-of-the-art decoder. The talk will also describe a state-of-the-art decoder\, used to translate neural activity into a control signal for external devices. Specifically\, this temporally convolved neural network decoder\, which incorporated a time series of neural data into the decoding algorithm\, allowed the simultaneous movement of 3 finger groups\, of which the thumb moves in 2D\, and acquired 76 finger targets per minute. Furthermore\, a human participant with tetraplegia controlled a virtual quadcopter navigating a ringed obstacle course in a physics-based simulation using these decoded finger movements. Finally\, Dr. Willsey will review several new companies that are commercializing BCI technology in early clinical trials and discuss the current challenges in translating BCIs for eventual human use.\nBio:\nMatthew attended MIT where he received B.S. and M.Eng. degrees in Electrical Engineering with a research focus in digital signal processing. He later attended medical school at Baylor College of Medicine and completed his neurosurgery residency at the University of Michigan in 2022. He completed a PhD in Biomedical Engineering during his 2-year resident research time plus an additional leave-of-absence year. His research focused on intracortical brain-computer interfaces\, computational neuroscience\, and neuromodulation. After graduation\, he completed a one-year\, post-graduate appointment as a clinical instructor stereotactic/functional neurosurgery and epilepsy at Stanford University where he conducted research in the Neural Prosthetics Translational Lab directed by Dr. Jaimie Henderson.\n\nHe is currently an assistant professor of neurosurgery and biomedical engineering at the University of Michigan and is core faculty in the neural engineering cluster of the Biointerfaces Institute and a Michigan Neuroscience Institute affiliate. His research interests include brain-computer interfaces\, neuromodulation (deep brain stimulation and spinal cord stimulation)\, and computational neuroscience. He currently directs a human BCI research lab (https://www.willseylab.org/home) focused on expanding the functionality and stability of present-day BCIs.\n\nHis clinical interests include deep brain stimulation\, epilepsy\, MR-guided focused ultrasound\, pain. \nZoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/94337625486

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Department of Astronomy 2024-2025 Colloquium Series Presents:
DESCRIPTION:\"Supercomputer Simulations of the Universe\"\n\nNumerical simulations of cosmic structure formation have become a powerful tool in astrophysics. Starting right after the Big Bang\, they predict the dark matter backbone of the cosmic web far into the non-linear regime and follow complex galaxy formation physics with constantly improving fidelity. In my talk\, I will review the methodology and selected results of recent hydrodynamical galaxy formation simulations\, such as the IllustrisTNG\, MillenniumTNG\, Auriga\, and Thesan projects. In particular\, I will discuss some of the primary challenges in modeling strong\, scale-dependent feedback processes that regulate star formation\, and highlight the important role played by supermassive black holes in galaxy formation. I will also discuss extremely large simulations and describe how they help to make reliable predictions for the impact of baryons and massive neutrinos on cosmological observables\, effects that need to be understood to make full use of upcoming new survey data.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Thursday Seminar Series - The challenges\, opportunities\, and game changers of adapting to a changing climate
DESCRIPTION:Seminar Summary - Adapting to climate change involves different issues -- and a different mindset -- than greenhouse gas reduction\, and its challenges are equally pressing. We’ll need to adapt in every community and nation\, in every sector of society\, and\, importantly\, in all habitats and ecosystems. There is a nearly boundless need for deep thinking and careful strategizing about how to adapt to a changing climate. We must be thoughtful about the climate challenges and risks we face\, the various adaptation tactics that are available\, and the hang-ups\, conflicts\, and tradeoffs among those challenges and tactics that might be hidden from view. This seminar will explore climate change adaptation for species and ecosystems\, with an emphasis on constraints\, innovation\, and ways to engage the public in adaptation discourse. The talk will also introduce the Midwest Climate Adaptation Science Center\, an organization providing science to guide adaptation practice in our region.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Identification and Estimation of Causal Effects in High-Frequency Event Studies
DESCRIPTION:We provide precise conditions for nonparametric identification of causal effects by high-frequency event study regressions\, which have been used widely in the recent macroeconomics\, financial eco- nomics and political economy literatures. The high-frequency event study method regresses changes in an outcome variable on a measure of unexpected changes in a policy variable in a narrow time window around an event or a policy announcement (e.g.\, a 30-minute window around an FOMC an- nouncement). We show that\, contrary to popular belief\, the narrow size of the window is not sufficient for identification. Rather\, the population regression coefficient identifies a causal estimand when (i) the effect of the policy shock on the outcome does not depend on the other variables (separability) and (ii) the surprise component of the news or event dominates all other variables that are present in the event window (relative exogeneity). Technically\, the latter condition requires the ratio between the variance of the policy shock and that of the other variables to be infinite in the event window. Under these conditions\, we establish the causal meaning of the event study estimand corresponding to the regression coefficient and the consistency and asymptotic normality of the event study estimator. Notably\, this standard linear regression estimator is robust to general forms of nonlinearity. We apply our results to Nakamura and Steinsson’s (2018a) analysis of the real economic effects of monetary pol- icy\, providing a simple empirical procedure to analyze the extent to which the standard event study estimator adequately estimates causal effects of interest.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Informational Roots of Support for Right-Wing Populists: Evidence from Argentina (with Daron Acemoglu\, Guillermo Cruces\, Martin Fiszbein\, Gaston Garcia Zavaleta and Carlos Molina)
DESCRIPTION:Support for populist and authoritarian regimes is rising worldwide\, despite evidence that they tend to underperform economically. To examine the role of (mis)perceptions of regime performance as drivers of political attitudes\, we conducted a survey experi- ment during Argentina’s 2023 presidential elections. At baseline\, optimistic beliefs about the performance of populist and non-democratic regimes were widespread\, and correlated with support for these regimes. When exposed to randomly assigned informational treat- ments challenging optimistic views about right-wing populism or autocracies\, individuals significantly adjusted their beliefs and their support for candidates associated with such regimes. We explore the impact of different information sources\, showing that scientific sources and newspapers are more influential than social media. Although individuals ap- pear to adjust their beliefs and attitudes in response to credible information\, we find that information countering people’s beliefs reduces their demand for additional information on regime performance\, consistent with an important role for motivated reasoning.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Learning from the Heterogeneity at the Electrode-Electrolyte Interface via Electrochemical Correlative Microscopy
DESCRIPTION:Understanding the structure-reactivity relationship at electrochemical interfaces is central to unraveling nearly all electrochemical processes\, including electrocatalysis and batteries. However\, these interfaces are typically structurally heterogeneous\, which impedes interpreting the structure-activity relationships using conventional ensemble electrochemical measurements. In this presentation\, I will discuss our efforts toward developing and applying electroanalytical techniques—such as scanning electrochemical probe microscopy and correlative microscopy—to gain new knowledge from electrochemical interfacial heterogeneity. First\, I will discuss our efforts towards simultaneous probing of local activity and product selectivity in electrocatalytic reactions via a hybrid scanning electrochemical probe microscopy approach\, equivalent to a miniature rotating ring disk electrode. Combined with correlative electron microscopy\, this approach enables simultaneous mapping of the facet-dependent activity and selectivity in the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) on polycrystalline Au and Pt. In the second example\, I will discuss the approach to measure site-specific nucleation kinetics and energetics in electrodeposition\, which plays an important role in the cyclability of batteries that use metal anodes. Finally\, the application of controlled electrodeposition towards accelerated materials discovery will be discussed.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Premodern Colloquium | \"The Inquisition and the Image.\"
DESCRIPTION:We hope you will join us on Thursday\, April 10th at 4:00 PM EST when Adam Jasienski (Associate Professor of Art History\, Southern Methodist University) engages us in conversation about a draft chapter from a new book project\, tentatively titled \"The Inquisition and the Image.\"\n\nDr. Jasienski sets up his project as follows: \n\n\"The Inquisition and the Image is a study of the Spanish Inquisition’s archives through the lens of visual culture. The hundreds of thousands of preserved inquisitorial trials provide an unparalleled—and almost entirely unstudied—source for how people lived within the complex world of art objects that filled the early modern Hispanic world: how they made them\, what they did with them\, and what hopes and beliefs they placed upon them. \n\nBecause of how ambitious this project is (analyzing material from twenty-six inquisitorial tribunals on three continents across over three centuries)\, I chose to structure my book according to problems that arise time and again in the institution’s archives\, rather than trying to create a comprehensive catalogue of every case where images and artworks appear. I strive to read the inquisitorial trials against the grain to attempt to grant agency to individuals accused of sacrilege: why might they have acted the way they did\, if they actually knocked over a statue of a saint? What else might have been at play? What can we glean of their motivations and beliefs from the often very terse descriptions of the witnesses and notaries? How\, in sum\, can we return some dignity to the individuals who are often only marginally present in the discussions about their own purported actions?\"\n\n Host Brendan McMahon (U-M History of Art) will begin admitting participants to the meeting at 3:50. Discussion begins at 4:00 and concludes by 5:30.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Writing Workshop (Rummage: Museums\, Exhibitions\, and Representation RIW)
DESCRIPTION:Rummage is a Rackham Interdisciplinary Workshop focused on the nexus of exhibition\, collection\, curation\, display\, and representation within museums and museum-adjacent spaces. 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.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Ethel V. Curry Distinguished Lecture in Musicology: George Worlasi Kwasi Dor
DESCRIPTION:Join us as the Department of Musicology hosts Dr. George Worlasi Kwasi Dor for its annual Ethel V. Curry Distinguished Lecture. Dr. Dor presents a talk entitled \"Ambivalence of Creating Youthful Aesthetic Satisfaction and Cultural Referential Meaning in Today’s Borborbor Dance-Drumming of the Ghanaian Ewe Youth”\n\nABSTRACT\n\nBorborbor\, the most popular dance of the Ghanaian Ewe youth\, has undergone a phenomenal degree of innovative transformations that exemplify the ingenious creative agency and inventiveness of its practitioners. Invented in the mid 1950s by Kodzo Nuatro of Kpando in the Volta Region of Ghana\, Borborbor has witnessed substantial changes in the areas of instrumentation\, choreography and movement\, geo-cultural scope of its practice\, typology and multiple performance contexts and their attendant meanings\, and its economic potential. To explore the nature and processes of changes that have shaped the genre over its seven decades’ period of existence\, we organized a one-day symposium on Borborbor at the University of Ghana in June 2024. This Carnegie African Diaspora Fellowship Program activity brought together invited practitioners from the socio-cultural and academic communities to dialogue. For our ethnographic strategy\, we used focus group interviews and discussion sessions involving the preceding cultural custodians and intellectuals to elicit specialized perspectives. The symposium culminated in an evening concert given by the Abeka Dekaworwor Fafali Borborbor Band and Kpoeta Ashanti Mile Norvisi group. We video recorded the focus group discussion and performances into ethnographic data\, and today’s presentation is an outgrowth of this on-going research. After explaining the genre’s compelling aesthetic appeal to Ghanaians beyond the Ewe and exploring what the symposium participants considered as referential meaning in Borborbor\, I discuss the emerging ambivalences in the areas of dancing\, views on appropriation\, and Borborbor in the church. I close the discussion with some summative thoughts and ramifications of the symposium for our research project on the generational changes and creative innovations in Borborbor.\n\nABOUT THE GUEST SPEAKER\n\nProf. GEORGE WORLASI KWASI DOR\, a Ghanaian Ewe\, is the McDonnell Barksdale Chair of Ethnomusicology\, Professor of Music\, and the founder and director of the African Drum and Dance Ensemble at the University of Mississippi (UM). Dr. Dor\, who has pioneered both the discipline of ethnomusicology and the MM in Ethnomusicology program at the UM\, earned his PhD in music (ethnomusicology)\, from the University of Pittsburgh\; MPhil in Music and BMus from the University of Ghana\; and a Diploma in Music Education from National Academy of Music\, Winneba\, Ghana. Dor’s publications include his widely read *West African Drumming and Dance in North American Universities: An Ethnomusicological Perspective* (2014)\, book chapters in Festschriften\, and articles in prestigious journals and encyclopedias. Dr. Dor is a two-time Carnegie African Diaspora Fellow and was a Visiting Professor of Music at the University of Port Harcourt\, Nigeria in 2019\, and at the University of Ghana in 2024. He initiated and continues to produce the UM’s annual Black History Month concerts since 2005. Other historic commemorative concerts he has produced include UM’s 50th and 60th Years of Integration – in 2012 and 2022\, and Ghana’s 50th Independence Anniversary in 2007. Dr. Dor’s strong leadership in diversity at the UM earned him a 2016 “Lift Every Voice” Award\, and the University of Mississippi’s 2021 Diversity Innovator Award. He is a consummate musician – scholar\, composer\, performer\, teacher\, and cultural patriot. While his compositions have been studied as themes of master’s and doctoral theses at both Ghanaian and German universities\, Dr. Dor’s symphonic works have been performed in Ghana\, USA\, and Germany. In an August 2022 citation\, the University of Ghana’s School of Performing Arts recognized Prof. Dor as “A National Musical Icon of Ghana and Distinguished Contributor to Ghanaian Art Music and African Musicology.\"

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Digging Deeper Lecture Series | Unraveling the Fabric of the Past: Textile Production and Consumption in Pre-Roman Italy
DESCRIPTION:Textiles represent one of the earliest human craft technologies and have been a fundamental part of subsistence\, economy\, and exchange for millennia. Knowledge of textile history is thus key to our understanding of a multitude of human issues. Textiles can tell us about social\, chronological\, and cultural aspects of past societies and at the same time give us a unique opportunity to come very close to the individual people in their capacity as both users and makers of textiles. \n\nIconographic sources indicate that textiles were used for a variety of purposes by the Etruscans and other peoples of ancient Italy\, but until recently\, little was known about what these textiles were like and how they were produced. The latest and ongoing studies of the surviving fabric remains found primarily in burial contexts and textile tools from settlements are\, for the first time\, permitting not only qualitative but also quantitative assessment of textile production and consumption in pre-Roman Italy and more broadly across Europe. \n\nMargarita Gleba is an associate professor at the University of Padua. She specializes in the prehistory and protohistory of the Mediterranean region\, the archaeology of textiles and other organic materials\, and the use of scientific methods in archaeology.\n\nThis free\, public event is supported by the Kozma Lecture Fund. Join us in the Rackham Amphitheatre\, located on the fourth floor of the Rackham Building (915 E. Washington Street\, Ann Arbor\, MI 48109). \n\nIf you have any questions or concerns regarding accessing this event\, please visit our accessibility page at https://myumi.ch/zwPkd or contact the education office by calling (734) 647-4167. We ask for advance notice as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Labor\, Machines\, and Economic Growth: Will Workers Be  Needed in our AI Future
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nAI adoption is already changing how people work\, with a growing number of companies adopting AI systems to handle an increasing number of tasks. How will human work evolve as AI adoption progresses and what will that mean for how people earn a living? How will it reshape how people find meaning and purpose in life? Will the winner-take-most economy of the past several decades continue\, further increasing inequality\, or will AI be the great equalizer? While many things remain unknown\, economist Betsey Stevenson will take us through what we can learn from the past\, what we are already seeing today\, and what might be the best way forward for both income and human flourishing. \n\nBiography\nBetsey Stevenson is a professor of public policy and economics at the University of Michigan. She is also a faculty research associate at the National Bureau of Economic Research\, a visiting associate professor of economics at the University of Sydney\, a research fellow of the Centre for Economic Policy Research\, a fellow of the Ifo Institute for Economic Research in Munich\, and serves on the executive committee of the American Economic Association. She served as a member of the Council of Economic Advisers from 2013 to 2015 where she advised President Obama on social policy\, labor market\, and trade issues. She served as the chief economist of the U.S. Department of Labor from 2010 to 2011\, advising the Secretary of Labor on labor policy and participating as the secretary’s deputy to the White House economic team. She has held previous positions at Princeton University and at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School.\n\nDr. Stevenson is a labor economist who has published widely in leading economics journals about the labor market and the impact of public policies on outcomes both in the labor market and for families as they adjust to changing labor market opportunities. Her research explores women’s labor market experiences\, the economic forces shaping the modern family\, and how these labor market experiences and economic forces on the family influence each other. She is a columnist for Bloomberg View\, and her analysis of economic data and the economy are frequently covered in both print and television media.\n\nDr. Stevenson earned a BA in economics and mathematics from Wellesley College and an MA and PhD in economics from Harvard University.\n\nParking/Accessibility Information\nThe closest public parking lot to East Hall is the Forest Avenue Parking Garage (650 S Forest Ave\, Ann Arbor\, MI 48104)\, which is a 5 minute (2 block/0.2 mile) walk to the venue.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The 1817 Project: U-M’s Origins\, Indigenous Lands\, and Institutional (In)Action
DESCRIPTION:Signed on September\, 1817\, the Treaty of Fort Meigs ceded 4.6 million acres of Indigenous land to the United States\, setting aside 1\,920 acres for “the corporation of the college at Detroit”–the fledgling University of Michigan. This was just the beginning of U-M’s complex history with Michigan’s Native American communities. The 1817 Project research team will present four snapshots of their research into this history\, spanning over 200 years\, from a re-examination of U-M’s origins to a 1971 lawsuit claiming U-M had broken the treaty and a study of broader patterns of Native American student enrollment.\n\nOne of the foundational Project Sites of the Inclusive History Project\, the 1817 Project team includes Jay Cook (Professor of History and Director of Research for the UM-Ann Arbor Inclusive History Project)\;  Michael Witgen (citizen of the Red Cliff Band of Lake Superior Ojibwe\, Professor in the Department of History and the Center for the Study of Ethnicity and Race at Columbia University)\; as well as postdoctoral and graduate students Jonathan Quint\, Gabrielle Hickmon\, Veronica Williamson\, and Cheyenne Travioli  (citizen of the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe)\, all part of a larger team working on the project.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Prison\, a Prisoner\, and a Prison Guard
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a multimedia exploration of the impact of prisons on countries and communities across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region through the lens of “prison art.” The exhibit delves into the dynamic interplay between incarceration and creative expression to make sense of carceral systems.\n\nBy presenting prison art from various countries in the MENA region\, including Algeria\, Egypt\, Iran\, Iraq\, Lebanon\, Palestine\, Sudan\, Syria\, and Yemen\, this exhibit unfolds as a “journey” into the prison system and demonstrates the ways in which art can be a tool of expression and reconciliation for survivors\, detainees’ families\, and society at large. It promotes drawing parallels between the prison experience in the region and worldwide\, highlights the intentionality of carceral systems\, and expands the conversation to include prison-impacted communities. Viewers are invited to navigate the cross-generational\, human experiences of imprisonment often obscured behind prison walls and within individuals.\n\nCurated by Sumaya Tabbah and Susan Aboeid of The Ḥafathah Collective\, this traveling exhibit was organized by U-M Students Organize for Syria (SOS) in partnership with U-M Library and with support from the U-M Arts Initiative.\n\nPlan to attend the related discussion\, \"Art\, Justice\, and Carcerality: The Role of Creative Expression in the Pursuit of Justice\,\" on February 6.

Through research\, narratives\, demographic data\, and a variety of visual and published materials\, explore multifaceted aspects of mixed race heritage with insights from many perspectives.\n\nThe 2020 U.S. Census illuminated a 276 percent increase in individuals who identify as \"two or more races\" since 2010. In recognition of the growing numbers of mixed race-identifying people at the University of Michigan\, throughout the country\, and across the globe\, we're excited to unveil this new exhibit — a unique exploration of changing demographics and intersectional identities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CREES Exhibition. Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\, an installation by Gluklya
DESCRIPTION:Gluklya’s work is a powerful example of socially engaged art at the intersections of gender\, class\, and cultural identity. By focusing on experiences of female textile workers in Kyrgyzstan\, the artist explores the often-overlooked stories of women affected by Soviet and post-Soviet colonialism. \"Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\" retells their stories using a diverse range of media — film\, sculpture\, watercolors\, and felt tapestries. Unfolding the implications of economic and societal pressures on women\, Gluklya explores issues of poverty\, isolation\, and exploitation among the garment workers.\n   \n   Personal stories are woven into a broader social context — such as the legacy of the \"Likbez\" (liquidation of illiteracy) campaign among women in Central Asia during Soviet rule and entrenched patriarchal traditions\, like \"Ala Kachuu\" (bride-kidnapping). This dynamic — where colonization and modernization intertwine the individual lives they touch — raises questions about cultural identity and the ethical borders of decolonized research.\n\nThis exhibition was curated by CREES alumna Dianne Beal (BA REES '79). See more of her work here: https://www.diannebeal.com/curatorial.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Andy Ross Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The pieces here are from a large series of works made over the last several years. In them\, Ross explores humor and personal meaning through absurd juxtapositions of pairs of wildly varied images. Each single image is stripped of its original context (be it\, for example\, a history book\, an instruction manual\, or a magazine advertisement)\, placed on a white background like some kind of specimen\, and presented afresh with a new “companion image.” These companion images confront\, contrast and converse with each other\, and thereby build new relationships\, narratives\, jokes\, and contexts.\n\nAndy Ross grew up in Macomb County\, and has been making art in various mediums since the 1970s. He received a BFA degree from College for Creative Studies\, and an MFA degree from University of Michigan. He has taught photography\, art\, and web design at colleges in California and Michigan. His photographs and collages have been exhibited in schools\, galleries\, and museums across the United States.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Angkorian Homecoming
DESCRIPTION:Informed by her experience as a refugee\, Phung Huynh’s projects explore the complexities of displacement\, assimilation\, and cultural negotiation among Cambodian and Vietnamese refugees who have resettled in the United States. She creates detailed graphite portraits on pink donut boxes to highlight the stories of Southeast Asians who have survived war trauma and genocide. Huynh’s serigraph prints about Donut Kids foreground intergenerational gaps as well as bridging the refugee parent and American child through the narratives of Cambodian American children who were raised by donut shop owners in California. Huynh’s most recent work of drawings of Cambodian Buddhist statue heads and photographic prints of decapitated statue bodies on fabric addresses the repatriation of looted Cambodian antiquities in the context of challenging the legacy of colonialism\, unethical museum practices\, and the refugee’s desire to return home.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Elizabeth Boyd-Hartmann Dizik Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:This body of work represents a playful exploration of form\, color\, and scale through the lens of cellular shapes. Inspired by the complex patterns of biological life\, the pieces are a celebration of growth\, transformation\, and the joy of experimentation. The use of non-precious materials\, such as wood balls and paint\, allowed for a liberating approach to composition and color\, while the spherical forms and circular panels evoke the look of petri dishes—symbolizing both scientific curiosity and organic development.\nBorn in Detroit\, Elizabeth is a multidisciplinary artist and mother based in the metro Detroit area\, where she works from a studio in her home. With a background in bench jewelry\, her earlier work focused on studio jewelry and was represented by Galerie Noel Guyomarc’h in Montreal.\nElizabeth’s work has been exhibited both locally and internationally. She holds a BA in Jewelry Design\, with First Class Honours\, from Central Saint Martins in London\, a BFA from the University of Michigan\, and an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art\, where she specialized in Metalsmithing and Architecture. Her diverse practice spans jewelry\, sculpture\, and installation\, blending materials and techniques to explore themes of production\, growth\, transformation\, and organic form.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Redefining the Crown
DESCRIPTION:In Winter 2025\, the Lane Hall exhibit space will feature a portraiture series titled Redefining the Crown showcasing the powerful stories of six Black breast cancer survivors.\n\nBased on a photo essay by U-M Faculty Versha Pleasant (MD/MPH) and Ava Purkiss (PhD) in Medicine at Michigan\, this exhibition examines the cultural and personal significance of hair within Black communities\, particularly through the lens of breast cancer treatment and recovery. The term \"crown\" is deeply symbolic in Black culture\, signifying beauty\, strength\, and identity. The featured photo essay by photographer Tafari Stevenson-Howard captures the intimate journeys of Ann Chatman\, Tanisha Kennedy\, Felecia McDaniel\, Shantell Elaine McCoy\, Tamara Lynn Myles\, and Veleria Banks.\n\nThrough their narratives and portraits\, the exhibit examines how these women have navigated the profound impact of hair loss caused by chemotherapy\, inviting the audience to witness their stories with radical empathy. It explores the cultural pride and personal identity intricately tied to their hair\, and how these elements are redefined amidst their battles with breast cancer.\n\nThe exhibit will be on view from January 21\, 2025 to August 8\, 2025. This exhibition is presented with support from IRWG\, the Department of Women's and Gender Studies\, and Michigan Medicine. \n\nLocated on the first floor of Lane Hall (204 S. State Street)\, the Exhibit Space is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich
DESCRIPTION:View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses\, which\, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization\, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship. Features such as exquisite typeface design\, letterpress printing\, handmade paper\, traditional illustration techniques like woodcut and engraving\, and the inclusion of original art by renowned artists highlight the presses' dedication to artistry and detail.\n\nThe display opens with an edition of \"The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer\,\" published in 1896 by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press\, a pivotal press that greatly influenced the development of the private press movement as a means of preserving and revitalizing the fine printing and art traditions of the past. Additionally\, the exhibit includes some examples of artist’s proofs\, offering a glimpse into the intricate creative process behind these exceptional works.\n\nThese books are on loan from the collection of Bill Heidrich\, a long-time supporter of the University of Michigan Library.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Distinguished Poet in Residence Craft Lecture: Your Own Singing School: How to Create Your Own Tradition
DESCRIPTION:Login here (no pre-registration needed): https://tinyurl.com/ZellWriters24\n\nSeats are limited and are offered on a first come\, first served basis\; please arrive early to secure a spot.\n\nZell Visiting Writers Series craft lectures are free and open to the public\, and will be offered both virtually (via Zoom) and in person (in The Robert Hayden Conference Room\, Angell Hall #3222). Please contact kimjulie@umich.edu with any questions or accommodation needs.\n\nOf his lecture\, Ilya says\, \"How do poets learn in solitude? How do they negotiate their relationships/non-relationships to larger traditions of writers who came before them? How do poets influence each other? What is this conversation across time and space that happens between poets? What is our place in this conversation? What\, indeed\, is that strange thing: an education of a poet? There is no singing school but studying monuments of its own magnificence\, wrote Yeats. So\, in our time together we will look at some very practical devices\, overhear some echoes\, and consider how to discover your own singing school—your own literary tradition—and how to enter and change that tradition. Expect to leave the room with many ideas about how poets learn from other poets and how it can help your own work develop and change into the future.\" \n\nIlya Kaminsky was born in Odessa\, former Soviet Union\, in 1977\, and arrived to the U.S. in 1993\, when his family was granted asylum by the government.

SUMMARY:Other:Leaves Under the Lens
DESCRIPTION:The leaf surface is a dynamic landscape where tiny\, specialized structures help plants interact with the world around them. Let’s bring this world into view! Join us for an exhibit that highlights the complex and often beautiful anatomy of leaves from the Matthaei collection. Plants throughout the conservatory will be paired with microscope photographs and micro-CT scans that illustrate the otherwise invisible structures that protect leaves from chewing insects\, absorb (or repel!) water\, and even recruit “bodyguards”. You won’t look at leaves the same way again! \n\nThis project is a collaboration between MBGNA and the Weber and Vasconcelos labs in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\, led by PhD student Rosemary Glos.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Michael Woodroofe Lecture Series: Nicolai Meinshausen\, Professor\, Department of Statistics\, ETH Zurich.
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Distributional regression aims to estimate the full conditional distribution of a target variable\, given covariates. Traditional approaches include linear or tree-based quantile regression. Modern computational-intensive approaches include diffusion models and flow matching. It is shown how a simple extension of the absolute error loss of standard regression yields a light-weight generative model that can easily be extended to very high-dimensional targets. It also can be used in an instrumental variable setting to estimate the full conditional distribution under interventions on the treatment variable. Results are very robust to the chosen model size and there are advantages of a distributional fit even if we only care about conditional mean estimation\, whether observational or interventional. The advantages include robustness properties under mild extrapolation \nin a regression setting and better identifiability results for causal effect estimation. \n\nhttps://people.math.ethz.ch/~nicolai/

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism
DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:8-BIT Music Exhibit: The Gallery
DESCRIPTION:MORE INFO: https://sites.lsa.umich.edu/8bitmusic/ \n\nThe 8-Bit Music Exhibit is a week-long exploration of the creation of the nostalgic\, retro tunes many have grown up with and come to love\, as well as a showcase of how such music has been reclaimed and repurposed for continued existence in the modern world. The gallery plans to guide viewers through a history of 8-bit music\, its significance to media and video games of its time\, and notable figures that influenced the legacy of the niched genre. In the workshop\, participants will learn how modern chiptune artists create music from Game Boys and the production software LSDJ\, and have the opportunity to create music of their own design. Throughout the end of the exhibit week\, we will celebrate the historic and modern legacies of 8-bit music in a set of live performances produced by Norah\, a seasoned chiptune artist.\n\nOur goal in developing this exhibit is to highlight 8-bit/chiptune music as a unique form of digital art celebrated for its sound\, cultural significance\, and innovation. Throughout the lifespans of the original hardware supporting this music\, artists often faced limitations due to hardware constraints. These difficulties led to early video game industry composers inventing new techniques and methods for music creation that have evolved over time and remain influential today.\n\nTHANK YOU to our co-sponsors and partners for your support in the creation of this event!\n-> U-M LSA Technology Services Digital Scholarship (https://lsa.umich.edu/technology-services/services/research-tools/digital-scholarship.html)\n-> U-M Digital Studies Institute (https://www.digitalstudies.umich.edu/)\n-> U-M Arts Initiative (https://arts.umich.edu/arts-initiative)\n-> Neutral Zone (https://www.neutral-zone.org/event-list/2025/4/11/free-tech-workshop-chiptune-8-bit)\n-> Ann Arbor District Libraries (https://aadl.org/)\n-> Ypsilanti District Libraries (https://www.ypsilibrary.org/)\n-> Pinball Pete's in Ann Arbor (https://www.pinballpetes.org/copy-of-east-lansing-location)\n-> Video Game Music Club (VGMC) (https://maizepages.umich.edu/organization/vgmc)\n-> WolvSec (https://wolvsec.org/)\n-> LGBTQ+ Michigan (https://websites.umich.edu/~lgbtqmichigan/#)\n-> Ann Arbor Fighting Game Community at the University of Michigan (FGC) (https://maizepages.umich.edu/organization/a2fgc)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:David Widder: Basic Research\, Lethal Effects: Military AI Research Funding as Enlistment
DESCRIPTION:Talk AbstractIn the context of unprecedented \nU.S. Department of Defense (DoD) \nbudgets\, this talk examines the recent history of DoD funding for \nacademic research in algorithmically based warfighting. I draw from a \ncorpus of DoD grant solicitations from 2007 to 2023\, focusing on those \naddressed to researchers in the field of artificial intelligence (AI). \nConsidering the implications of DoD funding for academic research\, the \ntalk proceeds through three analytic sections. In the first\, I offer a\n critical examination of the distinction between basic and applied \nresearch\, showing how funding calls framed as basic research nonetheless\n enlist researchers in a war fighting agenda. In the second\, I offer a \ndiachronic analysis of the corpus\, showing how a ‘one small problem’ \ncaveat\, in which affirmation of progress in military technologies is \nqualified by acknowledgement of outstanding problems\, becomes \njustification for additional investments in research. I close with an \nanalysis of DoD aspirations based on a subset of Defense Advanced \nResearch Projects Agency (DARPA) grant solicitations for the use of AI \nin battlefield applications. Taken together\, I argue that grant \nsolicitations work as a vehicle for the mutual enlistment of DoD funding\n agencies and the academic AI research community in setting research \nagendas. The trope of basic research in this context offers shelter from\n significant moral questions that military applications of one’s \nresearch would raise\, by obscuring the connections that implicate \nresearchers in U.S. militarism.\nSpeakerDavid Gray Widder (he/him) studies how people creating “Artificial \nIntelligence” systems think about the downstream harms their systems \nmake possible\, and the wider cultural\, political\, and economic logics \nwhich shape these thoughts. He is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Digital Life Initiative at Cornell Tech\, and earned his PhD from the School of Computer Science\n at Carnegie Mellon University. He has previously conducted research at \nIntel Labs\, Microsoft Research\, and NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. \nHis recent research has been accepted to FAccT\, Nature\, CSCW\, and Big Data & Society. His scholarly and activist work has appeared in Motherboard\, Wired\, the Associated Press\,  and the New York Times. David was born in Tillamook\, Oregon\, and raised in Berlin and Singapore. He maintains a conceptual-realist artistic practice\, advocates against police terror and pervasive surveillance\, and enjoys distance running.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Student Dissertation Defense: Above- and Belowground Functional Trait Variation and Its Effect on Tree Seedling Response to Environmental Change
DESCRIPTION:Dissertation Title: Above- and Belowground Functional Trait Variation and Its Effect on Tree Seedling Response to Environmental Change\n\nAbstract: To predict forest composition and function under global change it is important to understand tree responses to environmental shifts. This is especially true for seedlings\, as the seedling stage represents an important forest recruitment bottleneck. Therefore\, understanding the capability of seedlings of different tree species to respond to environmental changes will provide insight into how forests may look in the future. Tree responses depend on their ecological strategies\, which can be defined by the functional traits of their leaves and roots\, organs responsible for resource uptake above- and belowground. Prior work at the interspecific scale suggests that traits separate into three independent axes: above- and belowground resource conservation axes describing plants resource uptake efficiency and investment in organ construction\, and a belowground collaboration axis describing the degree to which plants rely on mycorrhizal fungi – key root symbionts that aid in resource capture belowground. However\, no work to date has explicitly tested if the proposed collaboration axis accurately describes how plants associate with mycorrhizal fungi\, and therefore the extent to which roots and their symbionts contribute to nutrient uptake within species remains largely untested. My dissertation addresses this through four chapters that systematically examine patterns of plant functional trait variation and their implications for seedlings success.\n\nIn Chapter 1\, I outline the current understanding of the relationships between roots and mycorrhizal fungi in trees\, proposing that because roots and mycorrhizal fungi operate together\, we should examine both simultaneously to get a thorough understanding of resource acquisition strategies belowground. In Chapter 2\, I examined whether the collaboration axis exists independently of the two resource conservation axes intraspecifically within seedlings of Quercus rubra\, Acer rubrum\, A. saccharum\, and P. serotina collected across Michigan. I found that aboveground traits are independent of belowground traits\, however belowground traits aligned on a single axis\, further calling into question the functionality of the collaboration axis.\n\nIn Chapter 3\, I examined the degree to which plant functional traits of tree seedlings vary with communities of mycorrhizal fungi across a nitrogen (N) gradient. Changes in N impact the function of plants and mycorrhizal fungi alike\, though no study to date has examined both simultaneously. I collected seedlings of two different mycorrhizal types: Q. rubra (ectomycorrhizal\; EcM)\, and A. rubrum and P. serotina (arbuscular mycorrhizal\; AM). Some EcM fungi can provide access to organic N that is otherwise inaccessible to plants\, providing an advantage at low N. I found that seedlings tended to be more acquisitive belowground at higher N\, EcM access to organic N decreased with N\, and that traits not included in the collaboration axis change with mycorrhizal function\, suggesting that the proposed collaboration axis is insufficient to describe plant reliance on mycorrhizae.\n\nIn Chapter 4\, I applied the trait patterns observed within species in prior chapters to see how variation in traits affects seedling growth under multiple environmental stresses. Prior work examined responses of plants to a single stress\; yet stresses rarely occur alone. I grew seedlings of Q. rubra\, A. rubrum\, and A. saccharum in the greenhouse under three levels of water and light\, measuring their growth and functional traits. I found that growth decreased under multiple stresses less than is expected based upon the reduction in growth experienced when exposed to singular stresses. Furthermore\, different species had different trait strategies to cope with multiple stressors.

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).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Frontiers in Scientific Machine Learning Seminar 12: Operator Networks Based on Numerical Analysis
DESCRIPTION:11th April 2025\, 12pm -1pm\nVenue: 2636 GGBA and Zoom \nZoom Link: https://umich.zoom.us/j/97823527756?pwd=H01BbvtuG5q02Wzb8LJvhUnvijlAIe.1\n\nAbstract: We propose a novel approach for solving parametric partial differential equations (PDEs) using an operator network. This method combines the strengths of deep learning with traditional numerical techniques\, specifically the finite element or spectral element methods\, to address parametric PDEs ranging from singularly perturbed convection-diffusion equations to the Navier-Stokes equations\, all without requiring paired input-output training data. Through extensive experiments on various benchmark problems\, our approach has demonstrated excellent performance across diverse settings\, showcasing its versatility in terms of accuracy\, generalization\, and computational efficiency. The proposed framework holds significant potential for applications in fields where PDEs are critical for modeling complex domains with diverse boundary conditions and singular behavior. Additionally\, we provide a rigorous theoretical convergence analysis\, grounded in numerical analysis\, to further support our approach.\n\nBio: As an Associate Professor at Seoul National University\, Youngjoon Hong focuses his research on the mathematics of machine learning and its applications in scientific computing. He earned his Ph.D. in Mathematics with a minor in Scientific Computing from Indiana University under the guidance of Professor Roger Temam\, where he developed a strong foundation in theoretical analysis and computational techniques. During his postdoctoral work at the University of Illinois at Chicago with Professors Jerry Bona and David Nicholls\, he conducted research on electromagnetic and water waves\, further honing his problem-solving skills. He later initiated independent studies on the use of neural networks in scientific research\, leading to a focused research program at San Diego State University\, where he began investigating neural network approximation within scientific machine learning. Currently\, his work is dedicated to developing theoretical frameworks that enhance the reliability and applicability of neural networks in addressing complex scientific and engineering challenges.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Mapping the inner world of cells
DESCRIPTION:Cellular processes are orchestrated by many biomolecules in a spatially and temporally coordinated manner within a tiny volume. To uncover the underlying organizational principles and their functional relevance\, we take microscopy visualization as the primary approach to systematically map their spatial localization\, temporal dynamics\, and activity profiles. By combining small tags engineered from split fluorescence proteins and CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene editing\, we have enabled the creation of the OpenCell library: > 1300 human cell lines with endogenously tagged proteins for both microscopy visualization and biochemical analysis. We have further developed the deep-learning framework to connect cellular images of proteins to their amino acid sequences.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Money and Meaning in the Climate Change Debate: Organizational Power\, Cultural Resonance\, and the Shaping of American Media Discourse
DESCRIPTION:In this research\, I investigate why some framings of climate change are publicized in American mainstream media while others are not\, examining organizational power and cultural resonance as two paths through which messages may gain visibility. First\, I use automated text-analysis to identify climate change frames in interest groups’ press releases (N=1\,768)\, coding frames for features believed to heighten cultural resonance. Then\, I use plagiarism-detection software to identify which messages were publicized in three major newspapers from 1985-2014. I find that policy messages from structurally-powerful interest groups such as business coalitions have received disproportionate media attention in the US climate debate. However\, organizational resources alone are not determinative of messages’ success. Political messages are also more likely to receive visibility when they leverage sources of cultural power\, such as by appealing to the latent worldviews of American audiences or their pragmatic concerns at particular historical moments. Results suggest both cultural and organizational power have shaped the perspectives given visibility in the American climate change debate\, while also describing limits on either form of power to determine media discourse.

This year's theme is economic inequality & well-being!\n\nSkills from QMSS 201 are sufficient to fully participate in the hackathon -- including students CURRENTLY taking QMSS 201! Students with more advanced skills from QMSS 301\, 395\, 495\, and/or other data science and statistics courses will also be able to flex their data muscles\, use more advanced techniques\, & gain incredibly valuable experience from this event.\n\nHow it works:\n- Register with a team of 2-5 students OR select that you'd like to be a \"free agent\,\" and we will create a team for you!\n- Teams who register by Thursday\, April 3rd will receive the Hackathon project instructions & a welcome video on Friday\, April 4th. Teams that register between April 4th - April 6th will receive project instructions on Monday\, April 7th. Any late registrations between Monday April 7th and 12pm on Tuesday\, April 8th will receive project instructions by 4pm on Monday and Tuesday\, respectively.\n- Teams will work together to complete their projects for submission by 8am on Friday\, April 11th.\n- QMSS will provide 2 opportunities for teams to get together and complete their projects with QMSS Peer Mentors available for assistance: Community Hours on Tuesday\, April 8th from 6-9pm and a second opportunity on Thursday\, April 10th from 6-8pm. You will receive additional information about these dates\, times\, and location with your Hackathon project instructions! Teams are more than welcome to work outside of these times in whatever ways work best for them.\n- The projects should not take more than a couple of hours to complete as a team\, though you are welcome to put as much time in as you need or want!\n- All teams who have submitted projects will attend the Hackathon event on Friday\, April 11th from 2-5pm in Weiser 110. Teams will have an opportunity to connect\, briefly prep\, and grab lunch at the start of the event prior to project presentations.\n- A winning team will be voted on and selected by the end of all presentations. The winning team will split a basket of U-M gear prizes!\n- All teams who fully participate (complete & submit a project & present it on the day of the event) will receive a QMSS Hackathon Completion Certificate signed by Dr. Ajogbeje & a QMSS Hackathon t-shirt (while supplies last)!\n- Any students who are currently enrolled in a QMSS course this semester that fully participate (complete & submit a project & present it on the day of the event) will also receive extra credit in that course. Please see your faculty member for details about extra credit!\n\nThis event is open to ALL students\, regardless of your affiliation with QMSS\, but it has been designed with QMSS students (those with interests in social science applications of data analytics & statistics skills) specifically in mind!

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:AIM Seminar / MCAIM Colloquium: Identification of Interacting Neural Populations: Methods and Statistical Issues
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  I will discuss the primary statistics-in-neuroscience topic my trainees and I have worked on over the past eight years: it is the problem of identifying interactions among neural populations from large-scale electrophysiological recordings. I will describe statistically natural approaches we have used to document interactions among brain areas based on neural spike trains (using latent variable point process models) and oscillating field potentials (by defining an exponential family on a multidimensional torus). I will also highlight some of the high-level lessons I've learned about the nature of statistical inference in science\, which suggest ways we can continue to improve the scientific process. \n\nContact:  Danny Forger

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:HET Seminar | Renormalization Group in far-from-equilibrium states
DESCRIPTION:We study renormalization group flows in far-from-equilibrium states. The study is made tractable by focusing on states that are spatially homogeneous\, time-independent\, and scale invariant. Such states\, in which mode k has occupation number $n_k = k^{-\gamma}$\, are well-known in nonlinear physics (going under the name of wave turbulence). RG flow in such states is qualitatively different than in the vacuum -- a positive $\gamma$ decreases the dimension of an operator\, turning marginal interactions into relevant interactions. We compute one loop beta functions. Depending on the sign of the beta function\, backreaction may either cause a minor shift of the state in the IR\, or completely change the nature of the state. Focusing on nearly marginal interactions\, we construct an analog of the epsilon expansion and IR fixed points\, with epsilon now set by the scaling of the interaction rather than the spacetime dimension. In the language of RG flow\, critical balance scaling -- having applications in fields as varied as astrophysics and ocean waves -- corresponds to the state dynamically adjusting itself along the RG flow until the interaction becomes marginal.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Linguistic Anthropology Colloquium | “‘Natural’ Elites: Semiotics of Language and Personhood at a Philippine University”
DESCRIPTION:How do people conceptualize human nature? How does it become an object of perception and experience\, an entity toward which value\, action\, or politics can be formulated? This talk will consider nature as both a folk concept and an analytic concept in my ethnographic research on Philippine elite formations. First\, I will explore how linguistic and semiotic anthropology have dealt with the question of nature\, outlining three areas across the literature: naturality\, naturalization\, and naturalism. Then\, I will draw on my fieldwork at a private university in the Philippines to explore how college student participants discussed becoming an elite “naturally\,” and being a “natural” elite. My participants conceived of nature as involving reinvention\, thus formulating an essence as artificial\, accomplished through will or adaptation. I argue that naturalizing elites helps naturalize the political economic systems that sustain them\, framing a world that can be regretted but not changed.\n\nAngela Reyes is Professor of English and Anthropology at the City University of New York (Hunter College and the CUNY Graduate Center). Her research examines historical and contemporary formations of language and personhood in the U.S. and the Philippines. Her books include The Oxford Handbook of Language and Race (co-edited with H. Samy Alim and Paul Kroskrity)\, Discourse Analysis Beyond the Speech Event (co-authored with Stanton Wortham)\, Beyond Yellow English: Toward a Linguistic Anthropology of Asian Pacific America (co-edited with Adrienne Lo)\, and Language\, Identity\, and Stereotype Among Southeast Asian American Youth: The Other Asian.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:RIW Colloquium: Marleen Rozemond (University of Toronto)
DESCRIPTION:Brought to you by Early Modern Philosophy Working Group (a Rackham Interdisciplinary Workshop)\n3222 Mason Hall\nTitle: Why Matter can’t think: Suárez\, Descartes\, and Leibniz on Things and Properties\n\nAbstract: Descartes spoke of properties of things as modes: thus sizes and shapes are modes of bodies.  This notion had its roots in the scholastic tradition and was well developed in the thought of Francisco Suárez.  It became quite important in the early modern period\, but its significance has not been fully appreciated.  In this paper I discuss a crucial early modern change in the notion of a mode and its role in related\, yet interestingly different\, arguments against thinking matter in Descartes and Leibniz.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture - Guleed Ali\, Stony Brook University
DESCRIPTION:The formation of vast lakes in the arid basins of the western United States marks one of the most profound hydroclimatic changes of the Quaternary. These ancient lakes\,\nserving as natural rain gauges\, record dramatic fluctuations in water availability\, evident from shorelines carved high above modern valley floors. Despite more than a century of\ninvestigation\, the climatic drivers of these lake high stands are debated\, primarily due to disagreements over their timing. The prevailing hypothesis\, based mainly on radiocarbon-dated lake carbonates\, now holds that these lake high stands occurred early in the deglaciation\, between 18 and 15 ka\, during Heinrich Stadial 1\, an interval of rapid\nglobal warming and pronounced northern hemisphere seasonality. However\, potential biases in radiocarbon dating and calibration uncertainty leaves these age determinations\nand climatic interpretations open to question.\n\nTo address the limitations\, my collaborators and I applied the uranium-series method to date lake and groundwater carbonates from the Mono Basin in east-central California. Our results corroborate previous studies linking the high stands to Heinrich Stadial 1\, but the increased precision of our uranium-series ages refines the timing of the\nhigh stand to a narrower interval\, between 16.1 and 15.9 ka. This high-resolution chronology reveals the brevity of the wet forcing and suggests a more precise correlation\nto Heinrich Event 1—a sudden\, short-lived surge of ice and meltwater that was discharged from the Laurentide Ice Sheet into the North Atlantic about 16 ka. This\nraises the intriguing possibility that the transient but extreme climatic impact of Heinrich Event 1 may be the precise cause for the dramatic wetting that lifted western U.S. lakes to levels higher than any attained in tens of thousands of years.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Geometry Semianr    L^q-spectra of dynamically driven self-similar measures: the multi-dimensional case
DESCRIPTION:A great deal of interest in fractal geometry centres on determining the dimensional properties of self-similar sets and measures\, as well as of their projections and convolutions. In a seminal contribution dating from nearly a decade ago\, Hochman achieved substantial progress towards the celebrated exact overlaps conjecture\, establishing that the Hausdorff dimension of self-similar sets and measures on the real line matches the similarity dimension whenever the generating iterated function system satisfies exponential separation. The result was subsequently refined by Shmerkin\, who established the analogue for the full L^q-spectrum of self-similar measures and successfully applied it to settle long-standing conjectures in dynamics and fractal geometry\, most notably Furstenberg's intersection conjecture for the action of multiplicatively independent integers on the torus. In joint work with Shmerkin\, we extend the dimensional result to any ambient dimension under an additional unsaturation assumption\; as in the one-dimensional case\, our framework consists of the class of dynamically driven self-similar measures\, which allows for a unified treatment of self-similar and stochastically self-similar measures\, their projections and convolutions. The argument relies crucially on an inverse theorem for the L^q-norm of convolutions of discrete measures in Euclidean spaces\, recently established by Shmerkin\, akin in spirit to the asymmetric version of the Balog-Szemerédi-Gowers theorem due to Tao and Vu.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Linguistics Graduate Student Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:Presenters Danuta Allen and Sophia Eakins joins us in person in Rackham's East Conference Room and on Zoom.\n\nSophia Eakins is a Ph.D. candidate in Linguistics where her research explores language contact\, language change\, and Creole languages\, often through sociolinguistic and phonetic/ phonological lenses. She is advised by Professors Andries Coetzee and Jelena Krivokapić at the University of Michigan and Professor Marlyse Baptista at the University of Pennsylvania.\n\nTitle: Cabo Verdean Creole in New England: Contact and Innovation in the Diaspora\n\nAbstract: The Cabo Verdean language has garnered attention in research due to its rich variation and sociohistorical status as a Creole language (e.g. Swolkein\, 2013\; Veiga\, 1982\; Quint\, 2001\; Lang\, 2007\; Taveres Moreira\, 2020\; Baptista\, 2002\, 2015\, 2020). Much of the research\, however\, has focused on the island community and overlooked the language practices of the vast Cabo Verdean diaspora. The investigations presented in this talk shift the spotlight to one of the largest diasporic communities: Cabo Verdeans in New England. I will share two studies on different aspects of the linguistic practices of this population. The first addresses the bilingual English-Kriolu language mixing strategies. The second explores a key aspect of dialectal variation within the Kriolu language spoken in the diaspora. By employing a community-centered approach to both its design and analysis (Léglise & Migge\, 2006\; Bancu et al.\, 2024)\, this research ultimately hopes to portray some of the unique and rich language practices of Cabo Verdean American diasporans.\n\n\nDanuta Allen\nTitle: The Syntax of Complementizer Agreement in Polish\n\nAbstract: In this presentation\, I discuss the variation in possible agreement marking present on the complementizer and the verb in sentences with coordinated subjects in Polish. The empirical data poses several problems for various approaches to agreement\, which suggests the need to consider alternatives to these analyses on theoretical grounds.

The paper will be circulated one week before the workshop. \nThe transatlantic journey of Ottoman Armenians began as a temporary labor migration for men. However\, the policies of Abdülhamid II's government (1876-1909) quickly changed the nature of this mobility. In 1896\, an imperial decree permitted Armenians to emigrate to the United States if they renounced their Ottoman subjecthood and pledged not to return. When Armenian men who had migrated before 1896 faced deportation upon return\, they sought to bring their families to the U.S. This paper argues that the Hamidian government enacted complicated laws regarding the emigration of Armenian women\, reflecting a strategy aimed at seizing Armenian property and challenging American extraterritoriality. \nFor questions please reach out to Albert Cavallaro at albertca@umich.edu. \nBest\, Albert Cavallaro

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Artist Talk: George Vargas\, Ana Luisa Cardona\, and Jesse Gonzalez
DESCRIPTION:During the fervent years of the 1970s at the University of Michigan\, a pioneering group of Latina/o students formed La Raza Art and Media Collective. Through self-organized exhibitions\, cultural gatherings\, and its journal\, the collective gathered artists\, art historians\, poets\, and journalists to voice the cultural and political expression of Chicano\, Hispanic\, and Latinx communities on campus and beyond. Members of the organization went on to become regional and national leaders in Latinx art and activism\, education\, community and political advocacy\, and public arts.\n \nRAM Collective co-founders George Vargas\, Ana Luisa Cardona\, and Jesse Gonzalez will discuss the lasting impact of this seminal moment in Latinx history at the University and their connections to the broader Latinx Midwest. They will share perspectives on Chicanx and Latinx student activism\, DIY publications and new media in the 1970s\, and the development of a network of like-minded organizations around the country that centered art as an act of politics and self-definition.\n \nThis program is presented in connection with the UMMA exhibition “La Raza Art and Media Collective\, 1975 – Today” and serves as the keynote event of Latinx Midwest History\, a 2-day symposium taking place April 11-12\, 2025.  The exhibition revisits the 50th anniversary of the foundation of RAM Collective to reflect on the profound impact of these visionary creators and the vital contributions of Latinx artists to Michigan’s cultural landscape on campus and beyond.\n \nFree and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Performance:Shawn Mullins
DESCRIPTION:World class songwriting\n\nAfter a series of indie releases and growing buzz in the Atlanta music scene\, Shawn Mullins’ critical and commercial breakthrough came when 1998 Soul’s Core shot him to fame on the strength of Grammy-nominated No. 1 hit\, “Lullaby” followed by AAA/Americana No. 1 hit “Beautiful Wreck” from 2006’s 9th Ward Pickin’ Parlor. His song\, “Shimmer” was used in promotion of the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney and was included on the Dawson’s Creek soundtrack. His co-write “All in My Head” from 2008’s Honeydew was featured in episode one of the hit TV sitcom “Scrubs.” Mullins also co-wrote the Zac Brown Band’s No. 1 country tune “Toes.” In early 2002\, he formed supergroup The Thorns with Matthew Sweet and Pete Droge. “No Blue Sky” from the resulting album\, is a modern day classic. \n\nFor the 20th anniversary of his breakthrough album\, Shawn revisited the music of Soul’s Core by recording two new versions of the album. He calls this Soul’s Core Revival. This is not a remix or a remaster of the original\, but rather brand new recordings with new arrangements of the songs – one album is stripped down solo performances\, some on guitar\, some on piano and maybe one a cappella and the second is a new studio recording with his full band\, Soul Carnival.

SUMMARY:Performance:Tommy Prine
DESCRIPTION:Opener: Olivia Ellen Lloyd\n\n“A Tommy Prine show is really like just spending an evening sitting down with him and becoming immersed in his life: the highs and lows\, the ups and downs\, the joy and grief. He shares it all and it’s spellbinding.” –Americana UK\n\nTommy Prine's debut album This Far South was not only a long-awaited introduction but a testimony to Prine's 20s and the loss\, love\, and growth that has defined them. Co-produced by a close friend and kindred musical spirit\, Ruston Kelly\, and beloved Nashville engineer and producer\, Gena Johnson\, the album is rich and dynamic from cathartic jams to nostalgic storytelling.\n\nTommy learned to play guitar by watching his father\, mimicking the ways his fingers moved\, he inadvertently developed his own singular style. Prine sonically brings together a colorful patchwork of musical influences spanning Gillian Welch\, Outkast\, Bon Iver\, the Strokes and more. Lyrically\, Tommy explores existential questions and emotional experiences in his music.

SUMMARY:Performance:Doolin'
DESCRIPTION:France’s premier Celtic band\n\nAfter three years of breakout touring at some of the biggest roots festivals in the United States and Canada\, and another three years locked out of the live performance world they have so ambitiously cultivated\, Doolin’\, France’s premiere practitioners of Irish and Celtic music\, return to touring with a new album entitled CIRCUS BOY. \n\nRecorded in part in the US (Chicago\, Kansas City and Pittsburgh) during their 2019 tour\, the album was completed at the legendary Studio Ferber in Paris\, France\, under the direction of two legendary producers\, Olivier Lude and Patrice Renson\, both of whom have collaborated with some of the biggest names in French music. While their 2016 album drew its inspiration from the fusion of traditional Irish music\, French chanson\, and American roots music\, CIRCUS BOY is resolutely more adventurous\, as evidenced by their original compositions as well as by the added punch and sonic elements that were brought to the project by producers Lude and Renson.  \n\nWilfried Besse’s vocals are supported as usual by the driving rhythm section of Josselin Fournel (percussion)\, Sébastien Saunié (bass) and Nicolas Besse (guitars)\, and the trad-Irish influence remains evidenced through the whistles of Jacob Fournel\, the bodhran of his brother\, Josselin\, and the nimble accordion playing of Nicolas’ brother\, Wilfried. But CIRCUS BOY represents a more powerful and bigger musical vision for the band\, made possible by the introduction of piano\, drums\, and brass as new sonic elements. That said\, the Irish music tradition is not complete without the presence of a fiddle or two\, and on CIRCUS BOY Doolin’ includes three of the best European fiddlers of the genre: Niahm Gallagher\, Niall Murphy\, and Guilhem Cavaillé\, himself a founding member of the band.
