Dr. Dylan Johnson
University of Zürich
Ancient Israelite religion, as it is preserved and presented in the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament, was not a homogenous monolith, but rather an assemblage of diverse beliefs, attitudes, and practices. We know a great deal about the official state religion overseen by kings, the roles and responsibilities of the priesthood, and the frequent critique of moralizing prophets, but what did the religious life of ordinary people look like? The biblical sources are heavily biased towards elite perspectives, but rather than discuss the goings-on in the temple or palace of Jerusalem, this lecture is dedicated to religion at the smallest social level: the individual, the family/household, and the town. What becomes quickly apparent is that Israelite family religion looked much like that of its surrounding Near Eastern neighbors. This type of religion was focused on lineages, on ancestors, and on personal relationships between the gods and people.

From group work to collaboration: A novel course and incentive structure to promote learning communities in a class
Assistant Professor Pavan Kadandale - Department of Molecular Biology and Biochemistry, University of California, Irvine
UW Host: Colleen Craig
Abstract: Making students work collaboratively on in-class activities is a commonly used pedagogical technique that has shown to improve student outcomes in large classes. However, this kind of group work does not extend beyond the classroom, and rarely lead to the formation of more intentional learning communities. On the other hand, institutions often create learning communities that span multiple classes, allowing for students to work together outside of lecture times. However, these require considerable support from administrative staff, and are generally not feasible for a single instructor to implement. In this talk, I will describe a relatively easy modification of an existing course, and a corresponding incentive system that draws from the…

Unresolved pasts tend to return. In the aftermath of state-perpetrated injustice, a façade of peace can suddenly give way. In such circumstances, the voices and visions of artists can help us see what otherwise evades perception. Focusing on contemporary performance in post-apartheid South Africa, this lecture will explore how unresolved racialized histories of state-perpetrated violence create conditions of possibility and impossibility for performance artists, choreographers, and theater makers. Cole will be presenting from her recent book, Performance and the Afterlives of Injustice, which brings the most social of art forms—live performance—together with questions about how societies change in the…

“At the Crossroads of Invisible Paths”: Russia’s Indigenous Writers in Local and Global Context
Join the Department of Slavic Languages & Literatures and the Ellison Center for Russian, East European and Central Asian Studies for the second event in the 2021-22 Public Lecture Series.
ABOUT THE EVENT
This presentation situates the indigenous literatures of Russia within broader critical discourses on indigenous cultural expression. With a focus on writers from Siberia and the Russian Far North whose careers span the Soviet and post-Soviet eras, including Iurii Rytkheu (Chukchi), Vladimir Sangi (Nivkh), Oktiabrina Voronova (Saami), Elena Keptuke (Evenki), Maria Vagatova (Khanty), and Yeremei Aipin (Khanty), the presentation examines the role of literature in shaping conceptions of indigeneity and practices of sovereignty in the midst of rapidly changing political and ideological circumstances. Additional attention is given to formal, stylistic, and thematic innovations of the texts themselves, particularly the ways authors write in, between, and across Russian and indigenous languages, while fusing…

Zumba with Karen Cornelio
6:00 to 7:00 p.m. – Thursdays
Zumba takes the “work” out of workout, by mixing low-intensity and high-intensity moves for an interval-style, calorie-burning dance fitness party. Once the Latin and world rhythms take over, you’ll see why Zumba Fitness classes are often called exercise in disguise. Zumba is a total workout, combining all elements of fitness – cardio, muscle conditioning, balance and flexibility, boosted energy and a serious dose of awesome each time you leave class. You’ll need some room to get down, supportive shoes, water nearby, and a towel.
Karen has been a licensed Zumba Instructor since 2013 and with UW Recreation at IMA since 2016. She also has a career as an engineering consultant, so virtual fitness is strangely familiar for her. She is crazy about music from all over the world and loves to take you on a trip to as many countries as possible through music and movement. While the choreography is easy to master, there are layers for additional intensity…

Called the daredevil of modern dance, legendary “PopAction” choreographer Elizabeth Streb makes her dancers fly with “unflinching explorations of physics” (The New York Times). By pushing the boundaries of aesthetics and the human body, her fierce and physical critique of modern dance “courts danger, tricks the eye, and thrills the spirit” (Trisha Brown, choreographer/visual artist.)
Returning to Seattle for the first time in 15 years, her company STREB EXTREME ACTION revisits its roots with a retrospective of Elizabeth Streb’s classic solos from the ‘70s and ‘80s, experimentations from the ‘90s, and jaw-dropping extreme action opuses on the large-scale “action machines” the company has become known for in the 21st century.

Building Organizations That Learn
If you want to build products that serve a global audience, you need to regularly challenge the biases that you hold as an organization and engage with the people you are trying to serve. Many organizations centralize and silo the responsibility of "learning" to a single team or group, which limits the organization's ability to adapt to the world appropriately. In this talk, Behzod draws on his experiences as a consultant, advisor, and research leader at companies like Facebook and Slack to reinforce the idea that resilient organizations cultivate intentional practices of learning that enable everyone to participate in meaningful ways. He traces these practices back to his time in…

Kith and Kiln: Production and Reproduction in Israelite Family Religion
Dr. Kerry Sonia
Colby College
The cross-cultural connection between ceramic production and the creation of humans in the ancient Near East offers a new lens through which to examine biblical discourse about procreation and subject formation. Adopting a materialist approach, this talk argues that biblical writers are not simply thinking about clay in relation to procreation and subject formation, but are thinking with it—that the raw materials, technologies, and objects of ceramic production helped to generate the ideologies and ritual processes that shape the human from gestation to birth and into early childhood. Material culture from ancient Israel, particularly the Judean Pillar Figurines, further suggest the prevalence of this ceramic paradigm in Israelite family and household religion.

The COVID-19 pandemic forced many educators and students to dramatically change how they teach and learn, particularly in hands-on lab courses. In response, Professor Luna Huang of Materials Science and Engineering redesigned a year-long senior undergraduate laboratory course — typically held in-person — to be delivered 100% remotely. Huang led a development team of teaching assistants and lab technicians to create more than 30 instructional videos, a robust suite of web resources, and a series of experiments that students could safely design and execute at home. With the return to in-person instruction this year, some unexpected benefits of remote course development have emerged, such as the opportunity to offer advanced laboratory and instrumentation experiences to students who usually do not have access to them.
In this Advances in Higher Education Research Seminar, Huang will share how she now utilizes remote learning strategies to improve and supplement hands-on lab classes.

The focus of this 2-hour webinar will be on how to manage and prune native vegetation adjacent to trails, drives, and streets for optimal environmental functions, appearance, safety, & visibility.
We will cover the current best pruning practices and how they translate for the specific vegetation goals and functions of natural area plantings. Considerations for reducing long-term labor needs and how to lengthen the time between pruning cycles will be covered, along with common pruning techniques that are ineffective and why.

Topic: "Cruel Activism: Labor, Affect, and Governance of Chinese Feminist and LGBT Rights NGO Activism" w/Yingyi Wang, UW Gender, Women, and Sexuality Studies (Virtual Seminar)
This workshare will take place on-line through Zoom. To register, please click here. Abstract: Once framed as being at the forefront of state- and corporate-sponsored campaigns targeting “violence against women” and human rights in the 1990s and 2000s, feminist and LGBT rights NGO workers are now regarded as a threat to national security due to their association with “foreign forces” under the Xi Jinping Administration. This contradiction reflects the entanglement of NGO activism, state regulation and the neoliberal Non-Profit Industrial Complex. In China, NGOs fill the void of social welfare services abandoned by the state. Barred from accessing domestic funding, rights-based NGOs are severely contained due to their political nature in recent years. These NGOs have to turn to foreign funders which perpetuates the hierarchies of the…

UW Pathology Presents “Somatic mutations, aging and cancer: A single-cell approach" Jan Vijg, PhD
Professor and Chair
Department of Genetics
Albert Einstein College of Medicine
Why Attend this Seminar?
Genome instability, i.e. the tendency of the genome to accumulate errors affecting its sequence integrity, is a hallmark of the aging process and has been implicated as a causal factor in aging and age-related diseases since the 1950s. Here, I will first discuss methods to quantitatively study somatic mutations, including single-cell and single-molecule approaches. I will then present data showing that somatic mutations accumulate during human aging in multiple tissues, including B lymphocytes, liver hepatocytes and bronchial epithelial cells. Evidence will be provided that the burden of spontaneous mutations in differentiated cells is higher than in stem cells or the germ line and may relate to cancer susceptibility. Finally, the possible mechanisms through which somatic mutation accumulation…

About the talk:
Efforts to transform academic engineering often focus on the outcomes of change projects—such as revised admissions policies, new curriculum, or improved student graduation rates. However, by working to embed equity into the change process itself, these projects can design and implement more efficient and effective changes. Through longitudinal research with all National Science Foundation Revolutionizing Engineering Department (RED) grant awardees, I have identified key processes for embedding equity into change projects: unified voice, group agency, strategic partnerships, and shared vision. Transforming engineering education is an ongoing, evolving process that requires a deep commitment to equitable change processes. By embedding equity into a…

Zumba with Karen Cornelio
6:00 to 7:00 p.m. – Thursdays
Zumba takes the “work” out of workout, by mixing low-intensity and high-intensity moves for an interval-style, calorie-burning dance fitness party. Once the Latin and world rhythms take over, you’ll see why Zumba Fitness classes are often called exercise in disguise. Zumba is a total workout, combining all elements of fitness – cardio, muscle conditioning, balance and flexibility, boosted energy and a serious dose of awesome each time you leave class. You’ll need some room to get down, supportive shoes, water nearby, and a towel.
Karen has been a licensed Zumba Instructor since 2013 and with UW Recreation at IMA since 2016. She also has a career as an engineering consultant, so virtual fitness is strangely familiar for her. She is crazy about music from all over the world and loves to take you on a trip to as many countries as possible through music and movement.

Simone Dinnerstein
Simone Dinnerstein is an inventive pianist “of strikingly original ideas and irrefutable integrity” (The Washington Post), known for projects that express her diverse musical interests. Her newest recording, An American Mosaic, features a 15-movement cycle for solo piano composed by Richard Danielpour. Inspired by Dinnerstein’s Bach recordings, the composer created the work to give comfort to all who have struggled through these challenging times. This deeply affecting composition is accompanied by Danielpour’s Three Bach Transcriptions, written as a thank-you to the pianist. Dinnerstein, in turn, has commissioned new works from Joseph C. Phillips Jr. and will perform his 2016 piece Never Has Been Yet, with poetry by Langston Hughes.
Ultimately, it is Dinnerstein’s unreserved identification with every note she plays that makes her performance so spellbinding.

Messy in the Extremes: Embracing Entropy in Design for Human Socio-Technical Systems
As human-centric designers, we need to embrace the messiness of humanity – there is more we can learn from the cluttered environment of Central Perk Café in the sitcom Friends than in the whitespace and gently beveled corners of an Apple product. Today, we are faced with post-human technology disguised as disruptive; users are abstracted from their environment, community, and even themselves. This abstraction promises gains in efficiency and quality all while packaged in a clean, seductive format. We need to re-examine these productivity oriented ideals and re-evaluate solutions that are technological opiates…

The collective as avatar has taken diverse forms through the course of its career, sometimes changing personnel and artistic strategies in accordance with the changing exigencies of the time.
In its latest manifestation, 0rphan Drift considers Artificial Intelligence through the somatic tendencies of the octopus – as a distributed, many-minded consciousness. Inspired by embodied cognitive science and radical anthropology, their multiple channel installations suggest possibilities in expanding and inhabiting other systems of perception and proprioception. They combine video, animation and text with newer tools such as LIDAR scanning to suggest new spatio-temporal formations and…

Join UW Botanic Gardens and Cascadia Forest Therapy for a unique forest bathing opportunity in the Washington Park Arboretum. Forest bathing (or shinrin-yoku) has been popular in Japan for decades and is gaining momentum in the US. The practice encourages you to walk in the forest at a slower pace and take in the atmosphere around you. Multiple scientific studies have shown that it lowers stress and blood pressure levels, while increasing immune system functioning, making you more resilient to diseases and illness.
These walks are slow-paced and generally cover less than a mile of trail. During this time the guide, in partnership with the forest, will offer an evolving series of invitations crafted to help participants slow down and open their senses. The opening of one’s senses encourages mindfulness, which readies the heart and mind to be fully present in the natural world. Come discover the medicine of being in the forest.

Zumba with Karen Cornelio
10:00 to 11:00 a.m. – Saturdays
Zumba takes the “work” out of workout, by mixing low-intensity and high-intensity moves for an interval-style, calorie-burning dance fitness party. Once the Latin and world rhythms take over, you’ll see why Zumba Fitness classes are often called exercise in disguise. Zumba is a total workout, combining all elements of fitness – cardio, muscle conditioning, balance and flexibility, boosted energy and a serious dose of awesome each time you leave class. You’ll need some room to get down, supportive shoes, water nearby, and a towel.
Karen has been a licensed Zumba Instructor since 2013 and with UW Recreation at IMA since 2016. She also has a career as an engineering consultant, so virtual fitness is strangely familiar for her. She is crazy about music from all over the world and loves to take you on a trip to as many countries as possible through music and movement.

In partnership with Town Hall Seattle, UW Taiwan Studies Arts & Culture Program is thrilled to host Small Island Big Song, launching their 2022 U.S. and European tour and celebrating the release of their newest collaborative album, Our Island. Eight musicians and vocalists from Taiwan, Australia, Madagascar, Mauritius, the Marshall Islands, and Papua New Guinea join us on the Great Hall stage for an extraordinary multimedia project of music, spoken word, and visuals.
Despite the geographic distance of their islands, they share one unified voice of the sea; from oceanic grooves to soulful island ballads, the artists establish a musical dialogue from a region on the frontline of significant cultural and environmental challenges.

Dr. Jenna Kemp
University of Basel
Popular understandings of the Bible treat it as a religious text that is instructive and contains an internally consistent message for its readers. However, when we approach the Bible critically, treating it according to the context of its production, we see that much more than a consistent message, the Bible reflects a human impulse to combine disparate traditions into a single location. In order to analyze this phenomenon, this talk will examine Genesis 1-3 and the two creation stories therein. As creation stories, these two tales each function to explain how the world has emerged, positing very different ideas about human nature, the divine realm, and natural phenomena. Appearing back-to-back as they do, however, these narratives have historically been read a singular, and they therefore produce fruitful tensions that readers in the interpretive traditions must confront and address.

Nation-Making on the Blackboard: The Politics of Education in Republican Turkey
Speaker: Asli Cansunar, Assistant Professor, Department of Political Science, University of Washington.
Most new countries that break away from a major empire or gain independence from a colonial power grapple with the challenge of creating new state-sponsored national attachments and loyalties under the banner of a shared identity. And, usually, it is the state that forms the nation, not vice versa. Indeed, history has witnessed a multitude of top-down and state-initiated campaigns to forge a nation from disparate groups through time and space. Turkey is no exception. With the Republic of Turkey's proclamation in 1923, the new regime attempted to change from the multiethnic and Islamist Ottoman Empire's ruins to a thoroughly modern and secular nation-state. Following most other regimes which sought to create loyal subjects through a comprehensive nation-building program, the new government prioritized primary and popular education to win the hearts and minds of the masses and to indoctrinate them into its…

Dauben Lecture in Organic Chemistry: Dr. Tim Swager
Hyp J. Dauben Jr. Endowed Lecture in Organic Chemistry , Chemistry of Dynamic Liquid-Liquid Interfaces
Professor Timothy M. Swager - Department of Chemistry, Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Host: Al Nelson
This lecture will focus on the design of systems wherein reconfiguration of complex liquid emulsions (droplets) can be triggered chemically or biochemically. The utility of these methods is to generate new transduction mechanisms by which chemical and biological sensors can be developed. Complex liquid droplets behave as optical lens systems and small changes in surface tensions can change focal lengths or cause systems to switch between optically transmissive or scattering states. Central to this scheme is that the fluids in the droplets have different densities and hence are aligned by the earth’s gravity. The induced optical changes can be triggered with chemical, photochemical, or biochemical stimuli and thereby create new generations of sensors. Demonstrations of these methods for the…

Gardening with the Seasons: Winter (online)
Though it seems there isn't much to do in the garden over winter, dormant season tasks can set the stage for a good gardening year. When weather keeps us indoors, we can plan ahead for tasks and garden changes to be done in the months ahead. When the weather is nice enough to spend time outdoors, it can be amazing how much we can actually take care of now. This session will cover dormant season pruning and transplanting for specific plant types, winter weeding and garden care, best tools and practices, and planning ahead for the new growing season.
Cost: $28
Register online, or by phone (206-685-8033)
About this series:
Plants and gardens don't live by the written calendar, but by the seasonal cycles and cues of changes in daylight, temperature, and moisture. When gardeners become acquainted with the seasonal rhythms and life cycles in the garden, and learn to work in sync with nature, caring for the garden becomes more of a process and less of a battle with potential garden enemies.

Functional and Porous Polymers from Bicyclic Bridged Building Blocks
Professor Tim Swager - Department of Chemistry, Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Host: Al Nelson
The ability of triptycene and related structures to produce materials with unusual properties is simply remarkable. Beyond their initial utility in preventing self-quenching in emissive semiconducting polymers for chemical sensors, we have found that they can guide and enhance alignment to liquid crystals, produce high modulus low dielectric constant materials, functional as gas permeable materials, simultaneously give dramatic increases in strength and ductility of polymers, and provide for novel electronic interactions. In this lecture, Prof. Swager will detail select examples from his group's recent triptycene polymer efforts including: (1) post-polymerization functionalization to give materials with high proton and anion conductivities, (2) scalable synthesis of materials that behave as chemical sponges for aromatic molecules, (3)…

THIS IS A LIVE STREAM WEBINAR ONLY. THERE IS NO IN-PERSON SESSION.
About the Speaker: Dr. Wood's research program explores the ecology of parasites and pathogens in a changing world. She addresses several questions with practical applications to marine and freshwater conservation, as well as essential value for ecological theory. First, does loss of biodiversity generally increase or decrease parasite transmission? In other words, do human impacts on biodiversity increase the prevalence of parasites by eroding natural “checks and balances” on transmission or decrease prevalence when they remove the free-living biodiversity on which parasites depend? Second, if – as recent data suggest – biodiversity loss has variable effects on transmission across parasites, what factors predict disease outcomes? Might transmission strategy of the parasite, the magnitude or timing of biodiversity loss, or the scale of observation influence whether transmission increases, decreases, or remains unchanged in response to an…

Zumba with Karen Cornelio
6:00 to 7:00 p.m. – Thursdays
Zumba takes the “work” out of workout, by mixing low-intensity and high-intensity moves for an interval-style, calorie-burning dance fitness party. Once the Latin and world rhythms take over, you’ll see why Zumba Fitness classes are often called exercise in disguise. Zumba is a total workout, combining all elements of fitness – cardio, muscle conditioning, balance and flexibility, boosted energy and a serious dose of awesome each time you leave class. You’ll need some room to get down, supportive shoes, water nearby, and a towel.
Karen has been a licensed Zumba Instructor since 2013 and with UW Recreation at IMA since 2016. She also has a career as an engineering consultant, so virtual fitness is strangely familiar for her. She is crazy about music from all over the world and loves to take you on a trip to as many countries as possible through music and movement.

Read about the entire lecture series at the web link below. Catalina Ouyang's work engages object-making, interdisciplinary environments, and time-based projects to indicate counternarratives around representation and self-definition. Ouyang's work addresses how a subject orients in physical and sociopolitical space: what histories and discourses are inscribed on the body, how the body exists in contingency with architecture and bureaucratic structures. Through both expansion and fragmentation, Ouyang proposes the body as a politicized landscape subject to partition.

Entrepreneurship is all about learning, which means it’s all about failing. Learning how to fail is a skill that can be practiced – it takes preparation before, during, and after the “failure.” Turning a “failure” into a “lesson” doesn’t happen automatically just by renaming the experience. It’s actually hard work and takes focus and practice. Let’s delve into failure together! Jane Park is the CEO and Founder of Tokki, a social & sustainable gifting technology company. Merging reusable physical giftwrap with a digital social experience, Tokki is reinventing gift giving to make the experience unforgettable. Ms. Park is also CEO and Co-Founder of Athena Consumer, an all women’s special purpose acquisition company (SPAC), and was the first Korean-American woman to ring the bell on the New York Stock Exchange.

Looking for a Winter activity for those short days in Seattle?
Why not consider lichens as an alternative? They grow on headstones and trees in cemeteries and can tell us about air quality and the make-up of gravestones. Cemeteries can take on new meaning as a *fun* place to observe a symbiotic organism made up of a fungus and algae. You will also learn about common lichens found in an urban environment and take home a user-friendly chart that lists lichens found in your neighborhood.
Always wondered about what lichens are and why they are found on your trees and Rhododendrons? Lichens are harmless to your plants and add aesthetic value to trees and shrubs. We can actually use them as indicators of air pollution!
Join Dr. Katherine Glew and the UW Botanic Gardens on Saturday, February 5, 2022 at Mount Pleasant Cemetery on Queen Anne Hill to get a head start on learning lichens from your local cemetery. You can enjoy the winter season by looking for lichens rather than staying inside and missing out…
Presenter: Katherine Glew, Ph.D. Curatorial Associate of Lichens at the UW Herbarium, Burke Museum. Contact Information: urbhort@uw.edu. Ticket Link: https://apps.ideal-logic.com/uwbg?key=2WSB-TGY2T_K9KH-5PTF_38037411a378.

Zumba with Karen Cornelio
10:00 to 11:00 a.m. – Saturdays
Zumba takes the “work” out of workout, by mixing low-intensity and high-intensity moves for an interval-style, calorie-burning dance fitness party. Once the Latin and world rhythms take over, you’ll see why Zumba Fitness classes are often called exercise in disguise. Zumba is a total workout, combining all elements of fitness – cardio, muscle conditioning, balance and flexibility, boosted energy and a serious dose of awesome each time you leave class. You’ll need some room to get down, supportive shoes, water nearby, and a towel.
Karen has been a licensed Zumba Instructor since 2013 and with UW Recreation at IMA since 2016. She also has a career as an engineering consultant, so virtual fitness is strangely familiar for her. She is crazy about music from all over the world and loves to take you on a trip to as many countries as possible through music and movement.
While the choreography is easy to master, there are layers for additional intensi…

Seminar Title: Electrifying Materials and Organic Synthesis
Assistant Professor Long Luo -- Department of Chemistry, Wayne State University
UW Host: Bo Zhang
Location: Bag 261
Abstract:Electrochemical synthesis is a powerful tool for formulating functional materials and molecules because it offers an additional level of control over the synthesis relative to its chemical counterpart by fine-tuning mass transfer, potential, or current. Furthermore, electrochemical synthesis also allows the convenient analysis of chemical reaction thermodynamics and kinetics using the current signal generated during the electrochemical synthesis. In this talk, three recent advancements in electrochemical synthesis will be presented: (1) Electrochemical gelation of quantum dots, (2) Electrosynthesis of grain-boundary-rich nanoparticle assemblies, and (3) Alternating current electrolysis for organic synthesis.
