Up In Michigan - Short Takes: An Aural Journey (Short Stories for all)

from Short Takes: An Aural Journey - Short Stories for all! · host Tommy Dwight

Trigger warning: This story depicts a sexual assault that may not be suitable for all listeners In last week’s episode, I mentioned that almost all of Ernest Hemingway’s early writing was stolen from a Paris train station in 1922. The story I present today, "Up in Michigan" is one of the only stories that survived. This could be due to the fact that Hemingway felt this story was not suitable for publication. So, perhaps he kept it separated from his other writings. This brings me to a trigger warning for this story. It does include a depiction of sexual assault. The story is set in Michigan and revolves around a young woman named Liz Coates. The narrative explores Liz's romantic and sexual desires, and it unfolds through a series of interactions with various men. One of the key elements of the story is Liz's attraction to a man named Jim Gilmore. Hemingway's prose in "Up in Michigan" is spare and economical, emphasizing the iceberg theory, where much is left unsaid and implied beneath the surface. As it is one of Hemingway's early works, his writing style continued to evolve over the years. Still, this story provides insight into his exploration of human emotions and relationships, as well as his minimalist and impactful narrative style.

This Impact Studios production is a collaboration with the Governor family, UTS Faculty of Law and Jumbunna Institute for Indigenous Education and Research.The Last Outlaws teamKatherine Biber - UTS Law Professor and Chief InvestigatorAunty Loretta Parsley - Great-granddaughter of Jimmy Governor and the Governor Family Historian Leroy Parsons - Governor descendant, Narrator and Co-WriterKaitlyn Sawrey - Host, Writer and Senior ProducerFrank Lopez - Writer, Managing Next Generation Energy Systems Cambridge University Background Stakeholders working with energy systems have to make complex decisions formulated from risk-based assessments about the future. The move towards more renewables in our energy systems complicates matters even further, requiring the development of an integrated power grid and continuous and steady transformation of the UK power system. Network flows must be managed reliably under uncertain demands, uncertain supply, emerging network technologies and possible failures and, further, prices in related markets can be highly volatile. Mathematicians working with engineers and economists, can make significant contributions to address such issues, by helping to develop fit-for-purpose models for next generation energy systems. These interdisciplinary approaches are looking to address a range of associated problems, including modelling, prediction, simulation, control, market and mechanism design and optimisation.
