Call for proposals 鈥 "Spark and Convergence: AI Seed Grant Program"
Call for proposals 鈥 "Spark and Convergence: AI Seed Grant Program"
亚洲情色 is introducing the "Spark and Convergence: AI Seed Grant Program", leveraging the Innovation Lab to drive transdisciplinary AI solutions in teaching, learning, community, and society.
How can 亚洲情色 utilize the Innovation Lab and Generative AI not just as a tool for learning, but as a connective tissue that activates meaningful, project-based collaboration across the disciplines?
The Innovation Lab is a central, flexible, and collaborative environment designed for collision, collaboration, and convergence across disciplines.
There is a critical need to improve AI literacy across faculty, staff, and students, while leveraging AI as a tool for rapid innovation. The solution is seed funding to faculty teams who commit to developing transdisciplinary courses or projects that explicitly utilize the Innovation Lab as their physical "collider space" and Generative AI as their common investigative tool.
This program requires the active use of the Innovation Lab to facilitate "micro-teaching" and, more importantly, student collaboration across academic silos (e.g., Watson Engineering students collaborating with Decker Nursing students).
Tier 1 鈥 The "Spark" Micro-Grant (Pilot Level, up to $5k funding)
- Target: Two faculty members from distinct schools/colleges/programs
- Deliverable: A joint two-week module or single assignment where classes merge
- The "Space" Requirement: Must host at least two joint class sessions in the Innovation Lab, utilizing breakout rooms for mixed-team problem solving
-Goal: tackle a challenging problem with transdisciplinary student groups
Tier 2 鈥 The "Convergence" Major Grant (Course Level: up to $10k funding)
- Target: Three+ faculty or interdisciplinary clusters
- Deliverable: A semester-long significant collaborative project or shared course materials
- The "Space" Requirement: The Innovation Lab is regularly scheduled for student group meetings. Faculty can utilize the open layout for micro-teaching, SME consultations, mini-lectures, and breakout rooms, all focused on collaborative project work
- Goal: Leveraging AI and transdisciplinary learning to tackle challenges in teaching, learning, community, and society
Submit an application to genai@binghamton.edu, which consists of a single PDF document, three pages or less, describing the project, faculty team, student collaboration plan, planned use of the Innovation Lab, role of generative AI in your project, anticipated outcomes, timeline, and detailed budget. Proposals should be written for an interdisciplinary review committee and should avoid unnecessary disciplinary jargon. The due date for projects is April 27, 2026.For More Information:

"Hub New Music" performances: April 14, 16
"Hub New Music" performances: April 14, 16
Hailed as 鈥渁 prime mover of piping-hot 21st century repertoire鈥 by The Washington Post, Hub New Music is one of the country's leading contemporary music ensembles. They return to 亚洲情色 for two dynamic and unmissable performances that showcase the extraordinary range of new music created by 亚洲情色 faculty and students, alongside new works from Grammy and Pulitzer-winning composers the ensemble has commissioned.
There will be two opportunities to experience "Hub New Music". The first performance will take place from 5-6:30 p.m Tuesday, April 14, in Casadesus Recital Hall. The second performance will take place from 7:30-9:30 p.m. Thursday, April 16, in Casadesus Recital Hall. Admission is free.
In addition to highlighting student work, ranging from EDM to lush romanticism to experimental instrument design, the performances will also include a world premiere by Hippocrates Cheng, assistant professor of music theory and composition, and the work "What if We鈥檙e Beautiful" by Daniel Thomas Davis, professor of composition, which has been frequently performed across the country and was recently featured on National Public Radio.
Founded in 2013, Hub New Music is one of today鈥檚 leading contemporary music ensembles. Hub has expanded the repertoire for its distinct combination of flute, clarinet, violin, and cello with over two dozen commissions by today鈥檚 most celebrated composers. In its thoughtfully curated programs, Hub New Music performs works exclusively written for the ensemble that strike notes of contemporary relevance. Recent and upcoming performances include concerts presented by Tanglewood, Seattle Symphony, Morgan Library, Suntory Hall (Tokyo), the Williams Center for the Arts, Cynthia Woods Mitchell Center, King鈥檚 Place (London), Thailand International Composer鈥檚 Festival (Bangkok), Soka Performing Arts Center, Arizona Friends of Chamber Music, Bowdoin International Chamber Music Festival, and the Celebrity Series of Boston.
Current touring projects include Daniel Wohl鈥檚 UFO-inspired electroacoustic piece "Mirage", and "What If We鈥檙e Beautiful", a program exploring queerness, chosen family, and identity with music by Daniel Thomas Davis and choreography by Aaron Loux and Brian Lawson. In recent seasons, Hub has collaborated on commissions with Ang茅lica Negr贸n, Nico Muhly, Tyshawn Sorey, Donnacha Dennehy, Christopher Cerrone, Carlos Simon, and Kati Ag贸cs, among others. The group has also developed genre-defying collaborations with the Asia/America New Music Institute, Boston鈥檚 Urbanity Dance, Silkroad鈥檚 Kojiro Umezaki (shakuhachi), and trumpeter/spoken word artist MK Zulu.
Hub New Music鈥檚 recordings have garnered consistent acclaim. The group鈥檚 recent album with Kojiro Umezaki, "a distance, intertwined", featured five works for Hub and shakuhachi, which I Care if You Listen called 鈥渂eautiful, haunting music that presents a clear and authentic dialog between varied cultural paradigms and traditions.鈥 Hub鈥檚 debut album, "Soul House", released on New Amsterdam Records, was called 鈥渋ngenious and unequivocally gorgeous鈥 (Boston Globe) and 鈥渋ntensely poignant" (Textura). In 2022, Hub鈥檚 album with Carlos Simon, "Requiem for the Enslaved", was nominated for a GRAMMY award for Best Classical Composition.
Hub is sought after for its multifaceted educational residency programs, having been a recent guest at Princeton University, University of Michigan, Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music, and Indiana University Jacobs School of Music, among many others. In 2021, Hub was a resident ensemble for the Los Angeles Philharmonic鈥檚 Nancy and Barry Sanders Composer Fellowship program for high school-aged composers. Also in 2021, Hub launched its flagship K-12 educational program, HubLab, that uses improvisation and storytelling to create original pieces with students of all musical levels.For More Information:

Faculty recital 鈥 Hippocrates Cheng: April 19
Faculty recital 鈥 Hippocrates Cheng: April 19
Hippocrates Cheng, assistant professor of music theory and composition, presents "Re/Sonic", a concert of new music for East Asian instruments. This performance features nine distinguished artists of East Asian instruments who will premiere new compositions composed by Cheng. The program includes trio music for Chinese instruments (dizi, erhu, pipa); trio music for Japanese instruments (ry?teki, hichiriki, shakuhachi); trio music for Korean instruments (daegeum, haegeum, gayageum), and a large ensemble piece for all nine instruments.
This event will take place from 3-5 p.m. Sunday, April 19, in Chamber Hall, Anderson Center. Ticketing information is available at the link below.
This concert is sponsored in part by Harpur College, School of the Arts, Department of Asian and Asian American Studies, and the Institute for Asia and Asian Diasporas.
Hippocrates Cheng is an assistant professor of music theory and composition in the 亚洲情色 Music Department. He is a composer, theorist, ethnomusicologist, and multi-instrumentalist from Hong Kong. In 2024, he completed his doctorate in music composition with a minor in ethnomusicology at Indiana University Jacobs School of Music. His composition teachers included professors Don Freund, Eugene O'Brien, David Dzubay, and Aaron Travers.
As an award-winning composer, Cheng writes contemporary classical music, new music for Asian instruments, jazz, and music for interdisciplinary productions. As a multi-instrumentalist, he performs overtone singing, piano, and viola while also practicing qin, dan bau, and phin pia. He draws on music theory, composition, ethnomusicology, and sound studies in his research of both traditional and contemporary East Asian music. This intersectional approach is exemplified by his research on the music of the Hong Kong composer Doming Lam, the player piano and piano rolls in early jazz history, and braille music notation. His papers were selected by conferences hosted by AMIS, IAML, ICTMD, ISJAC, APME, AMS, the CUNY Graduate Center, the University at Buffalo, the University of Southern California, the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna, Humboldt University, University College Dublin, the University of Malaya, and the Korean Performing Arts Institute of Chicago.
Cheng began his musical journey by learning to play piano, violin, and clarinet in choir and ensembles. He pursued his Bachelor of Music in composition at the Hong Kong Baptist University under the guidance of Christopher Coleman and Christopher Keyes. In 2018, with the support of the Hong Kong Jockey Club Music and Dance Fund, he completed his master's degree in Music Composition at the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts (HKAPA) with distinction. His composition teachers included professors Clarence Mak and Florence Cheung.
Before joining 亚洲情色, he taught as an associate instructor in music theory at IU and as adjunct faculty at IU Northwest. As a guest lecturer, he gave lectures, talks, masterclasses, and workshops at Butler University (USA), Ball State University (USA), University of Indianapolis (USA), University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (USA), Shanghai Conservatory of Music (China), Peking University (China), Lingnan University (Hong Kong), Senzoku College of Music (Japan), Okinawa Prefectural University of Arts (Japan), Mahidol University (Thailand), Chiang Mai Rajabhat University (Thailand), Naresuan University (Thailand), and Suan Sunandha Rajabhat University (Thailand).
In June 2024, his chamber opera on anti-Asian hate, "All of US", was premiered as the winning work commissioned by the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel, Indiana. In the summer of 2024, he was selected for an exchange program funded by Indiana University (IU) and the Free University of Berlin (FUB). During his residency in Berlin, he conducted research and created new works. He is currently working on a creative research project titled "East Asian Music in the Contemporary World."For More Information:

On sale now: "Indigo Girls" coming in May 2026
On sale now! The Anderson Center for the Performing Arts presents the "Indigo Girls" at 亚洲情色 on May 3, 2026. The performance will be live with the 亚洲情色 Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Jingqi Zhu.
The power of unity, both in music and in life, has been an "Indigo Girls" calling card ever since they burst into the spotlight with their 1989 self-titled breakout album. Since then, the band has racked up a slew of Gold and Platinum records, taken home a coveted GRAMMY Award and earned the respect of high-profile peers, collaborating with artists ranging from Michael Stipe to Joan Baez. NPR鈥檚 Mountain Stage called the group 鈥渙ne of the finest folk duos of all time,鈥 while Rolling Stone noted they 鈥減ersonify what happens when two distinct sensibilities, voices and worldviews come together to create something transcendentally its own.鈥 The duo has balanced their long, successful musical career by supporting numerous social causes 鈥 the "Indigo Girls" don鈥檛 just talk the talk; they walk the walk.

Observe local wildlife safely
Observe local wildlife safely
Campus is home to the 190-acre nature preserve, which itself is home to deer, beaver, fox, mink, muskrat, porcupines and other mammals, a diverse amphibian and reptilian population, and over two-hundred bird species. Respect the wildlife both on campus and in the community by following these tips:
- Don't feed the wildlife. Feeding wildlife damages their health, alters natural behaviors, and exposes them to predators and other dangers.
- Keep quiet and move slowly if you see wildlife.
- View wildlife from a distance; do not approach.
- Never purposely chase wildlife.
- Do not collect plants or animals without permission (agency permits are required for certain species).
- Leave wild baby animals where you find them. Do not collect birds, eggs, or feathers.For More Information:

Graduate School policy updates
Graduate School policy updates
The Graduate School has been working to update, clarify, and modernize its policies this year and would like to share three recent updates with the campus.
1. Graduate School By-laws 鈥 Article 2 defines the terms for graduate faculty membership. This article was substantially out of date with current practices of the campus and in conflict with other policies included in the manual. Article 2 has been substantially revised (and approved by the Graduate Council) to more clearly define the role(s), privileges, and responsibilities for members of the Graduate Faculty. Read more at: /grad-school/policies-and-procedures/bylaws.html
2. New doctoral stipend policy page 鈥 Because doctoral students can be supported through either SUNY-funded GATA positions or RPA positions supported through sponsored projects, the Graduate School created a new stipend policy page to clarify and harmonize doctoral stipend policies across funding modalities. In doing so, it consulted with HR (both SUNY and RF) to incorporate their policies where appropriate, and ensure adopted policies are consistent with best practices in doctoral education at R1 universities. Read more at: /grad-school/cost-funding/stipend-policies.html
3. Update Postdoctoral Associate/Fellows policies 鈥 Like many R1 universities, The Graduate School maintains the policies governing the appointment and training of postdoctoral scholars. With efforts over the past two years to provide professional development and career support to postdocs, The Graduate School has now formalized this work into a new Office of Postdoctoral Affairs within the Graduate School. In doing so, policies have been updated to align with federal, state, and Research Foundation policies, including new requirements for minimum compensation. Read more at: /grad-school/policies-and-procedures/post-doctoral-policies.html
The Graduate School will continue to evaluate, refine, and improve these policies in upcoming years to meet the critical needs of its constituents (graduate students, postdocs, and faculty) and 亚洲情色. Many thanks to the members of the Graduate Council who have been involved with the review and discussion of our policy revisions over the past year.For More Information:

Keeping bikes safe on campus
Keeping bikes safe on campus
As the weather warms, the University typically sees the number of bikes and scooters increase across campus. In anticipation of this seasonal trend, the University Police would like to share a few simple steps you can take to help protect your property and reduce the risk of theft.
Whenever possible, ensure your property is locked in a designated bike rack using a high-quality lock. Additionally, removing an easily detachable part, such as the seat or a wheel, can serve as a strong deterrent to its theft. If you have a bike or scooter stored outdoors, take a moment to verify that it is properly secured in the location where you left it. By periodically checking on your property, you can narrow the window of opportunity should a theft occur and increase the likelihood of its recovery.
Finally, one of the most effective ways to help in the bike鈥檚 recovery is to keep specific information about the bike on hand. Remembering the make, model, and color is useful, but documenting unique details such as serial numbers, aftermarket parts, or distinct damage greatly aids in its recovery. The best way to save this information is by simply taking photos of these details and keeping the pictures on your phone.
If your bike or scooter is ever stolen, you can file a report with University Police in person on the ground floor of the Couper Administration Building or by contacting University Police Dispatch at (607) 777-2393.For More Information:

Comparative Literature guest performance Wednesday
Comparative Literature guest performance Wednesday
The Department of Comparative Literature invites you to "Pieces of Me", written and performed by Bo Petersen, at noon on Wednesday, April 15, in the IASH Room, LN 1106.
"Pieces of Me" is an autobiographical play that reckons with the immense cost of living secretly as a mixed-race family under the racist apartheid regime. The play explores how Petersen's father's decision to pass as white has shaped her life. Under apartheid, her family could not legally exist. At 19, she accidentally discovered her father鈥檚 racial background 鈥 and therefore her own, as well 鈥 and she became custodian of her father鈥檚 secret. "Pieces of Me" is Petersen's renegotiation with history and with her father. Focused on a specific South African history, the play resonates with experiences of discrimination, passing, and silence throughout the world.
Bo Petersen has worked as a professional actor in South Africa for more than 40 years, working on stage, TV, and film. She has also made a name for herself as a director. Petersen currently resides in the US, where she continues to write, direct, and perform.For More Information:

School of Computing Seminar Series Friday
School of Computing Seminar Series Friday
Join the School of Computing for a presentation by doctoral student Yuhang Liu, from noon to 1 p.m. Friday, April 17, in EB T1 or on Zoom at the link below. This event is titled "UniLLM: A Unified Large Language Model for Multi-Modal Urban Dynamics Prediction".
Modern cities generate vast streams of urban dynamics data reflecting mobility demand, environmental conditions, and traffic patterns. The value of these data lies not only in individual modalities but in their integration, as urban signals are highly interdependent and changes in one modality often influence others. Consequently, predicting any single urban dynamic requires information from multiple interrelated sources. Although numerous methods, ranging from deep learning models to recent LLM-based approaches, have been proposed, most are limited in scope. They either focus on single-modality prediction, rely on rigid model designs that lack flexibility, or overlook inter-modal dependencies. As a result, they struggle to adapt to dynamic urban conditions and suffer from degraded predictive performance across modalities. In this talk, Liu will present UniLLM, a unified large language model for multi-modal urban dynamics prediction. At its core, UniLLM introduces a Unified Cross-Modal Alignment Module that transforms heterogeneous urban data into latent representations while preserving modality-specific patterns and capturing cross-modal correlations through a contrastive learning objective. To support dynamic adaptation across tasks and modalities, UniLLM further incorporates a Routing-Aware Prompting Mechanism that learns soft prompts based on task context and modality semantics. In addition, a Multi-Modal Memory-Guided Adaptive Algorithm employs replay-based gradient coordination and Frank鈥揥olfe optimization to mitigate cross-modal catastrophic forgetting during fine-tuning. Extensive experiments across multiple cities and urban modalities demonstrate that UniLLM consistently outperforms state-of-the-art baselines. These results highlight its potential as a flexible and robust forecasting framework for real-world multi-modal urban environments.
Yuhang Liu is a doctoral student in computer science at 亚洲情色, advised by Yingxue Zhang. His research focuses on spatio-temporal modeling, multimodal representation learning, and LLM-based frameworks for urban dynamics prediction.For More Information:

35th Bernardo Lecture 鈥 "On Dante's Virgil and Medieval Anti-Judaism": April 23
35th Bernardo Lecture 鈥 "On Dante's Virgil and Medieval Anti-Judaism": April 23
The Center for Medieval and Renaissance Studies will host the 35th Bernardo Lecture reception at 4:30 p.m. Thursday, April 23. The lecture itself will take place from 5-6 p.m. in the Old Champlain Atrium.
The rescheduled 35th Bernardo Lecture, "On Dante's Virgil and Medieval Anti-Judaism", willl be given by Justin Steinberg, professor of Italian literature, at University of Chicago. His paper will argue that Dante draws on medieval representations of Jews to depict the character Virgil. Like one of the authors of the Hebrew Bible, Virgil's texts illuminate those who will come after him, though he is himself blind to their true meaning. His poetry can save Statius, but he is himself damned. The tragedy of the obtuse Virgil is the tragedy of the obtuse Jews. More broadly, Dante found in Christian supersessionism a strategy to deal with his classical and pagan predecessors - incorporating them into his work but also relegating them, forcing them to serve the Christian poet.For More Information:

"Make Students Do the Thinking: How to Build Learning Problems Using AI" event today
"Make Students Do the Thinking: How to Build Learning Problems Using AI" event today
Want students to engage, wrestle with ideas, and use course concepts 鈥 rather than wait for the answer? Problem-based learning (PBL) is a teaching approach that helps students learn by working through meaningful problems 鈥 using course concepts to analyze, make decisions, and justify their reasoning. Join the CLT from 2-3:30 p.m. Tuesday, April 14, at the Learning Studio, LN1324C, for this introductory session.
Participants will explore what PBL is (and isn鈥檛), why it can deepen engagement and transfer of learning, and what makes a learning problem strong enough to drive inquiry. The workshop also introduces practical ways generative AI can support problem construction and revision 鈥 such as shaping context, clarifying objectives, anticipating student misconceptions, and strengthening prompts so they require evidence rather than opinions. Participants will leave with a clearer understanding of PBL foundations and a few concrete starting points for designing or revising a problem-based assignment in their own course.
