As we mentioned in our Heads Up section a few weeks ago, July is anti-boredom month. It’s probably because July is the month where people are most likely to get bored. It’s hot, sunny and the days are long. For students and teachers, schools are closed by June and open again in August, making July the only month guaranteed to be completely devoid of scholarly endeavors (unless you’re in summer school). There’s not much to stress over, meaning there’s not much to distract yourself from. And there’s not much going on to distract yourself with, either. The vast majority of TV shows won’t start for at least another month. Basketball and hockey seasons have been over for a while, leaving baseball as the only major sports season in progress. This is around the time when I actually start to become excited for the upcoming school year, although I’m sure I’ll be singing a different tune in late August. Many of my friends have left CU for summer with jobs and internships across the country, and I want to hear how their work and lives have been going. Perhaps they’ll be completely different and unrecognizable next time I see them. In order to make sure I have undergone at least some sort of transformation before the end of summer, I’ve compiled a list of things to get done in the next few weeks. 1. Go to Jay Moses’ listening party at the indi go Artist Co-Op at 7 p.m. Thursday. 2. Go to Mike ‘N’ Molly’s for Hank.’s record release party and tour kickoff. 3. Go to Sholem Aquatic Center and chill out on the lazy river. 4. Beat Grand Theft Auto IV before Grand Theft Auto V comes out in September. 5. Watch every episode of Breaking Bad before the new season begins. 6. See Pacific Rim with an Icee and giant tub of popcorn. 7. Get a tattoo. 8. Win a trivia night at Murphy’s, Mike ‘N’ Molly’s or Firehaus. 9. Watch the latest season of Arrested Development in chronological order and compare it to the order it was released. 10. Re-listen to Yeezus and decide where it fits in my rankings of Kanye West releases. 11. Fix my bike at The Bike Project. 12. Clean out my room and prepare to move into my house. 13. Figure out what I’m going to do in the 24 hours between leases. 14. Finish reading Choke and Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk. 15. Streak up the Quad and to the gymnasium.

We will insert anything for a price

END OF SUMMER CLASSES BY KRYSTYNE JONES Summer classes are finally coming to an end. Luckily, there’s still plenty of time left to enjoy the summer. For most college students, it may seem like exciting summer vacations are a thing of the past. Summer becomes a time to buckle down and trade fun in the sun for several weeks dedicated to writing term papers, taking quizzes and studying for exams. Sounds like a real bore, right? Well, just like fall and spring semesters, summer semesters must end. Here are a few tips on how to enjoy the rest of your summer before facing the responsibilities that await you this upcoming fall. With scorching hot days and more time to simply relax, it’s definitely a no-brainer that the pool will be one of the first places to visit. Nothing feels better than being able to relax and have fun while cooling off. If the pool really isn’t really your cup of tea, concerts are also a popular summer activity that will rarely disappoint. You’re done with cramming for exams and prepping for quizzes. Let loose and enjoy yourself. Good music, fun and friends are always a good time. There are endless possibilities of how to enjoy the rest of your summer vacation. Whether it’s splashing in the pool, seeing your favorite music artist or simply going for a bike ride on a nice summer day, all that matters is that classes are over. It’s time to fully enjoy the summer and have fun!

When Buffy the Vampire Slayer first aired in 1997, I was too busy attending kindergarten and sticking Legos up my nose to really appreciate it. Luckily for me, complete summer boredom and the seven seasons available on Netflix allowed me to become a true Buffy convert only 15 years after it aired. Now, I won’t lie, Buffy is an easy show to poke fun at. Cheesy high school drama? Check. Dated ‘90s hairstyles and wardrobes? Check. Forbidden love with brooding vampires? Check. But the show also has an infectious sense of humor and undeniable spunk. This is due in large part to Joss Whedon, the mastermind behind the cult-classic TV show Firefly as well as The Avengers. With its trademark one-liners and self-referential quips, Buffy side steps melodrama and becomes a coming-of-age story grounded in something very real.

 MGMT’s album cover GIF: MGMT’s new self-titled record doesn’t drop until September, but they revealed their album cover early Monday morning. The Connecticut psych-pop duo didn’t simply show us the front of the follow-up to 2010’s cage-rattler Congratulations, though. They put out a GIF, splitting the sunny image of summer laziness into 16 fragments that rapidly scroll past the viewer’s eye. It’s a brilliant move, because it simultaneously offers the excitement of seeing the cover for the first time, while also building anticipation until MGMT puts out a version of the album cover that doesn’t induce seizures (or someone on the Internet pieces it together). I like that. That’s rad.

Âť My apartment complex: I’ve come to the conclusion that I will never live in a shelter worse than the apartment complex I live in right now. My leasing agent is noisily renovating every apartment in the complex during the convenient hours of “whenever I happen to fall asleep.â€? There’s a seedy old man who lurks alone in the dirty parking garage below the complex very late at night, seemingly waiting to assault someone. Someone broke into my car. The renovators busted a water line in the apartment above mine, causing water to burst through our stucco ceiling. Our A/C has broken on three (!) separate occasions.

ed 2, the entertaining sequel to the successful Red, suffers from the creative problem of most recent sequels: originality. According to producer Lynda Obst’s interesting book Sleepless in Hollywood: Tales from the New Abnormal in the Movie Business, Hollywood has sequel-itis for guaranteed profits. Red, according to the Internet Movie Database, was produced for an estimated $58 million. It grossed $90 million domestically and $199 million worldwide. Based on the graphic novel by Warren Ellis and Cully Hammer, it had to be made into a sequel because it made so much. Now there is a further built-up audience with familiarity with its characters and plot situations. Director Dean Parisot’s Red 2 contains the right mix of action, forced comedy, action chases and international crime with just the requisite amount of violence for a profitable PG-13 rating — but nothing more. It’s shot in visually attractive locales, such as London, Paris, Hong Kong and Moscow, and features most of the original’s cast and characters. Bruce Willis as Frank Moses, John Malkovich as Marvin, Mary Louise Parker as Sarah and Helen Mirren as Victoria. New to the cast is Byung-hun Lee, featured as a South Korean assassin for hire

named Han, Catherine Zeta-Jones as a Russian officer named Katja and Sir Anthony Hopkins is the eccentric weapons inventor, Dr. Bailey, lovingly called the “Da Vinci of Death.” Clearly the audience demographics are the late Baby boomer crowd, as screenwriters Jon and Erich Hoeber string together various plot strands using the group of ex-CIA black ops who reunite to track down a portable nuclear device from a Cold War-era project called Nightshade. There is the added twist of a vengeful Korean hitman and Katja, the Russian agent who Frank once had a thing for, and a troubled past. Even the most mundane Bond film is better. While Willis and Malkovich have a likable comic chemistry and partake in the film’s action with cynical humor, what’s most disappointing is the film’s

lame humor. In one instance, both guys duck behind a gun-riddled parked car and embrace when Frank asks with the worst variation of the Mae West line, “Is that a stick of dynamite in your pocket...?" Or later when the group is frantically searching for the weapon of mass destruction in the bowels of the Kremlin, several begin to argue and someone shouts, “What happens in the Kremlin, stays in the Kremlin.” I expected so much more from Parisot, the director of the hilarious cult film Galaxy Quest. There are good chase scenes, especially one through Paris streets chasing a French agent on a motorcycle (David Thewlis) and another aerial helicopter/car chase in London. Hopkins and Mirren seem to have fun playing parts rarely in their repertoire. Red 2 packs good mindless summer entertainment, if that’s all you’re looking for.

ack in 1975, the standard for shark movies was set incredibly high by the terrifying Steven Spielberg film Jaws. One colossal great white shark terrorized not only the small oceanside town of Amity Island, but the minds of everyone who entered any body of water. Not even pools were entirely safe without a thorough sweep for the infamous shark. It was the epitome of a great shark movie. But since then, none have really come close to matching the fanfare that Jaws created. It could be because sharks were no longer enough to scare audiences all on their own. As the horror genre developed, films became more gruesome and violent and featured psychopathic killers, deadly diseases and many more terrifying evils than sharks. This gave someone in Hollywood the brilliant idea to start modifying shark films. If sharks weren’t enough to scare audiences on their own, why not combine them with something else that is scary? Unfortunately, this idea has led to shark movies becoming more comical than frightening. Several attempts have been made to inspire fear with dangerous and deadly combos, but the end result is typically far from fear. Films such as 2-Headed Shark Attack, Mega Shark vs. Crocosaurus and Sharktopus are just a sample of the supply of ridiculous “horror” films featuring sharks. The latest addition to this supply takes a deadly force of nature and combines it with the apex predator of the sea, in Sharknado. In this SyFy original film, a freak hurricane swamps the streets of Los Angeles and distributes sharks throughout the flooded land, and has them flying around in the air as well. Survi-

vors of the initial onslaught of sharks (including Tara Reid) have to find a way to make it to safety before becoming a flying shark’s next meal. The Syfy network is known for its less than quality films, but Sharknado brought in 1.4 million viewers the first night it ran on the network, and was generating around 5,000 tweets per minute at one point. From celebrities to average people, it seemed as if no one could resist a tweet or status about the film. The majority of them were sarcastic, but still those are some impressive figures. Less than a day after this social media craze hit televisions, talks were already in the works to get a sequel underway. Before the week’s end, SyFy had already green-lighted a sequel, tentatively titled Sharknado 2. Feeding off the social media buzz, SyFy also announced a contest for the upcoming film. Fans have the chance to choose the subtitle for the next Sharknado installment by tweeting @SyFyMovies with the hashtag #Sharknado.

It’s going to be huge challenge for contestants to top the original Sharknado’s subtitle of “Enough Said,” but hopefully by the time the film is released next year, someone will have come up with another gem like that. That is, if the hype around this movie can last long enough to keep fans interested. A year is a long time in terms of social media; it’s basically a lifetime. Chances are, the interest surrounding this movie and possible sequels will fade long before the next film debuts. It was more of a trendy thing to hashtag on Twitter than something audiences had an actual interest in. Unless Spielberg decides to return to sharks and direct the sequel, it is just going to be another one of those movies that people could really do without. It was fun for a while to hear the sarcastic comments and see funny tweets and statuses, but it’s probably safe to say Sharknado’s 15 minutes of fame are spent. “Enough Said.”

HIDDEN YET DELICIOUS

Asian Taste makes quality Vietnamese takeout BY JASMINE LEE

J

ohnstown Square in Champaign is a tiny mecca of Campustown living, cramming in a general store, T-shirt shop and a handful of eateries between Fifth and Sixth streets along John Street. Amid the cacophony of stores lies Asian Taste, a fast food Vietnamese takeout place that has taken over the intriguing, but misguided, Doodles restaurant that had attempted to defy the five-cents-perpackage persona of ramen eating. Unfortunately, other than a brightly colored orange sign cheerfully set up in front of Insomnia

Cookies, there is no other marker to announce Asian Taste’s presence, which is a shame because it has the potential to satisfy hungry students and community members alike. It’s cheap, approachable and markedly different from the Chinese and Korean restaurants that monopolize the Sixth and John street block around the corner. Not much has changed,layout-wise from the location’s Doodles days. There are three booths, a five-top counter running alongside the back wall, a station stuffed with napkins, utensils, sauces

and a refrigerator selling appropriately Asian drinks. Their menu of soups, pho, sandwiches and snacks is sporadically available at most times. Your best bet would be to peruse the whiteboard that announces the day’s specials. They definitely do not skimp on the basil. The spring rolls are basically thin tubes of rice paper wrapped around giant leaves of basil and garnished with thin slices of shrimp, chicken or pork. I wasn’t a huge fan of them, but the accompanying chilipeanut-soy-sauce dipping sauce was phenomenal.

They also offer pho on the menu, which was the real reason I wanted to try out this place. I’m not a fan of the greasy, overly spiced, brown-soup version of pho (the likes of which can be found and enjoyed at Golden Wok). Other than Bangkok Thai/Pho 911’s clear-soup offering, no other Asian restaurant in the area really satisfies my particular pho craving. Until now. For around $7, you get an enormous bowl of noodles that will fill you up and keep you happy for the next day or so. But the star of the eatery, by far, is the banh mi sandwich, which is delectable. Banh mi thit nuong, or Vietnamese baguette and grilled meat sandwiches, have exploded in popularity in the past few years. “Banh miâ€? actually means “breadâ€? in Vietnamese, and has evolved from its colonial French roots into its most recent iteration, made out of both rice and wheat flour. What do you get when you order a banh mi sandwich? A soft baguette, baked until crackly-crisp on the outside, filled with either barbecue pork, cold cuts of ham or liver pate, then topped high with mayonnaise, pickled carrots, pickled daikon, jalapeĂąo, cucumber and cilantro. The combination sandwich — filled with all three kinds of meat, then topped with their homemade mayonnaise, sliced cucumber, sliced jalapeĂąos, julienned carrots and an almost exorbitant amount of fresh cilantro sprigs — is possibly one of the greatest sandwiches I’ve had to date. Be sure to try out their Vietnamese iced coffee: a cup, brimming with ice cubes, half-filled with coffee concentrate, then topped off with sweetened condensed milk. Sweet doesn’t even begin to describe it, but it’s a nice rush of caffeine to end the meal. You can find Asian Taste at the old Doodles location, 502 E. John St.

You're not dreaming. Locals Hank. are releasing their debut full-length album BY MADDIE REHAYEM

H

ank. is a band that likes to stay on their toes, constantly evolving their music, never looking back at what they’ve done before. Now that they’ve been around for about two years, the band has finished a full-album and become a CU mainstay, a treat to see on any local bill as well as one that loves to tour. Saturday is their record release party at Mike ‘N’ Molly’s. It’ll be their first full-length album, although it is really more of a culmination of their work over the years, a showcase of their creativity and evolution. With the recent addition of Ryan Brewer on guitar, Hank. added some needed contrast to their songs. “Once we start writing as a four-piece, it’s going

to be really interesting,” Brewer said. “But I’m pretty happy with the stuff that I threw on top of these songs that they had already been playing for years.” Having been Hank.’s “merch dude” on previous tours, after asking to be in the band, it was an obvious choice for Brewer to join. Besides friend chemistry, he brings contrast in guitar work that the band welcomed. “I was just trying to present something different to the table,” Brewer said, “I don’t think Hank. needed another Ted on guitar.” Hank.’s original recordings have been removed from their Bandcamp page and replaced with the re-recorded versions. The new album contains new songs but also their previous

ones, realized to their maximum potential. Some of the new and re-recorded songs have the addition of some violin, cello, trumpet and vibraphone. At the show on Saturday, the band will perform the new album all the way through, and some of those additional instruments will be included. Hank’s album is entitled Pinched for a reason, but even though that reason is not because their music contains a little pinch of a lot of things, it is still an apt way to describe Hank.’s sound. “I don’t think we’re ‘twinkle daddies,’” said bassist and vocalist Darwin Keüp when asked if Hank. fits into the Midwest’s affinity for tapping and twinkly guitar work, even though the band certainly uses their fair share of it.

Being from CU helps as well. “If it wasn’t for Mike Kinsella, the whole fuckin’ thing wouldn’t have started.” Regarding math-rock, punk and even jazz, Keüp said, “We like it, we embrace it, we taste it, but we don’t eat the whole fuckin’ thing." Each band member brings a different taste in music to the table. “We have songs that literally change genre mid-song,” Keup said. From classic rock to ambient to punk and hardcore, the different influences make Hank. a band’s band, and they even admit that it is mostly other bands that enjoy their music. As it shows on Pinched, Hank. aren’t afraid to experiment — and it’s working out for them.

ART WITHOUT LIMITS

Catching up with local artist Brian J. Sullivan BY JOHN MILAS

Brian J. Sullivan's artwork. Photo by Animah Boakye

B

rian J. Sullivan is a visual artist, pure and simple. Although he paints and sculpts, he prefers not to be categorized. On his website, he writes, “I do not limit myself to working in any one media, but rather use that media which I believe will best get my message across.” With artwork showings across the nation and in multiple countries and his own Champaign studio, this local artist’s work is limitless. “I can and have worked in lots of other mediums (than painting),” he said. “Whatever I do, I do as an art form. In other words, when I’m making a cabinet or working with my hands and building something, I look at it in a different way than other people do. I don’t mean that I make a cabinet as art, but I have the sensibilities (of an artist).” He’s done construction work to pay bills, and would use the same artistic sensibilities building a porch deck as he would on a painting. Sullivan has been a professional artist since before the birth of most University undergraduates. He received his bachelor’s degree in metalsmithing at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee in 1981 and his master’s degree in sculpture at the University of Illinois in 1988. He’s been exhibiting

8 buzz July 25-31, 2013

his work professionally for over 30 years. He spends the majority of his time now on large paintings featuring graphics and logos from 1950s advertisements and graphics, which he calls “the golden age of advertising.” Multiple pictures of signs and logos combine to form one of Sullivan’s paintings. “I try to put them all together to make a new composition and put things together that you generally wouldn’t see together so that it makes you question what your original preconceived ideas are about ‘Lucky Strike’ or ‘Big Boy,’" Sullivan said, "because that’s what the advertising media has beat into your head all these years. Now I put it in a new context and it might be more suggestive or provocative.” Sullivan has always created artwork using older, unaltered and familiar images. “I try to find things that are well published,” he said. “I don’t want to make them up myself. I’ll always use things you’ve seen before.” “Texaco Pussycat” is an example of a name Sullivan would bestow on a painting. He names his work based on the most striking details present, in this case a large Texaco logo and a small portrait of a kitten below Marilyn Mon-

roe’s face, among other details such as dangling shoes and an Elvis Presley logo. “One woman looked at this and spent almost an hour telling me the symbolism she saw with the shoes, and Elvis, and she just went on and on,” Sullivan said. “I love hearing that because I never tell them ahead of time. They just see the painting and they get it. They know what these things meant to them and they tell me.” What satisfies Sullivan most about his work is the viewer’s interpretation. “I just want everyone to have their own experiences. That means that each time they look at the work, they’ll see different things they haven’t seen before and they’ll discover new things. Whereas if I just did a pretty little landscape they’d see it once and get it and never be interested in it again,” he said. “I’m trying to make art that makes people think and it says something and it touches something in them. I’m not concerned or constrained by trying to make sales since I get my income from other ways.” He makes ends meet by renting a few properties in the community, which allows him to devote his efforts to the authenticity of his art as an artist and not a salesman.

Sullivan will reuse different logos multiple times, but no painting of his is the same, and he doesn’t plan them in advance or sketch anything beforehand. A large painting of a giant “Lucky Strike” logo next to Marilyn Monroe (called “Lucky Strike With Lady”) still has a few blank spaces he’s working on filling with more logos. He will be going to Des Moines in a couple weeks to the Iowa Gas Swap Meet, an event for collectors of “oil and gas petroliana and auto advertising,” according to their website. He’s not only going to display and sell his work, however. “A lot of places I go to, I use to get new images,” he said. “I’ll be able to find old icons, logos, graphics of old cars, old oil cans, old gas signs that I can take pictures of to use in my future work. A lot of times when I go to a show, it’s not just to sell, but a trip to gather more reference material.” Sullivan is an artist who values the integrity of his work, and not its potential sale price. He’s been working with this in mind for over 30 years in Champaign-Urbana and shows no signs of stopping anytime soon.

FALLING AWAKE How to lucid dream BY ALYSSA DAVISON

Used with permission from the Creative Commons

Y

ou’re in the middle of an intense dream, running through an open field under a velvet black sky. You feel free as you frolic toward a pink moon that hangs heavy on the horizon. But wait, the moon is turning red, now green. The grass under your bare feet suddenly begins to slither and you realize you’ve been running atop a giant snake all along. What do you do? If you’re like most people, chances are you will find the dream reality indistinguishable from waking life. When the snake underfoot threatens to swallow you whole, you’ll run for your life only to awake in utter terror. But what if there was a way to choose the path your dreams take? What if while teetering at the hallucinatory precipice of life and death you become aware that it’s all a dream? Being conscious that you are experiencing a dream while in the dream state has been recognized by many traditions as lucid dreaming. Lucid dreaming moves you from believing a dream is real to understanding that it’s an illusion. This means having an epiphany while you are in the dream state where you might say to yourself, “This is just a dream.” Once

you have this awareness, you realize you have the ability to control all of the events occurring in your dream. So when the snake arrives, you can simply choose to fly away, or even hop on the snake’s back and go rob a bank. Becoming lucid is the awareness that you can summon whatever hallucination you so desire beyond the limitations of waking reality. While this idea may seem absurd to those who haven’t experienced it, a survey states that nearly 50 percent of the American population have had a lucid dream sometime in their lifetime. Whether or not you are lucky enough to conjure a lucid dream naturally, avid lucid dreamers and sleep psychologists outline methods anyone can follow in order to induce a lucid dream. Here are four basic methods to get you started: Method 1: Remember your dreams. The foundation to controlling a dream is the ability to recall a dream, and the more detail, the better. When you first wake up, lie still in the same position and consciously remember what was just happening. Write down anything you recollect in a dream journal in addition to what specific

memories may have triggered the dream. This way you can note connections between your waking and dreaming life. You will also notice that certain details of a dream sometimes become lost throughout the day. Try and take note of these details as well. If you can’t remember a dream, then you won’t be able to lucid dream. Method 2: Meditation. Research has shown a direct correlation between dedicated practitioners of meditation and the ability to lucid dream on a regular basis. Since being consciously aware while awake translates to subconscious dream awareness, meditation helps to increase the mindfulness it takes to elicit lucid dreaming. Method 3: Try Stephen Laberge’s “Mnemonic Induction of Lucid Dreams” technique. Since dreams arise from the REM cycles of sleep, Laberge suggests setting your alarm for four and a half hours after you intend to fall asleep in order to interrupt each REM cycle. Once awake, try and recall what was happening by focusing on your dream as you fall back asleep. Repeat this process every 90 minutes. The intention of Laberge’s

method is to carry over a conscious waking awareness into the dream state, since lucid dreams are most likely to occur when the REM cycle is interrupted by waking and then reentering the dream. Method 4: Buy a lucid dreaming device. There are various gadgets invented for the sole purpose of helping to induce lucid dreaming. The NovaDreamer is one such apparatus, and consists of an eye mask with light sensors. These sensors detect the eye movement occurring during REM sleep and sends a beam of light into your sleeping eyes. The idea behind the mask is that it can give you cues from the waking world to tell your sleeping self you are in fact asleep. It is thought that once you see the light, it will trigger your brain into lucid dreaming. While these methods may seem difficult, lucid dreaming has lifelong benefits. Not only does lucid dreaming lead to a more mindful and aware waking life, but lucid dreaming therapy has also been used to cure nightmares, night terrors and irrational fears. Whether you use lucid dreaming as a means of therapy or as a recreational exercise, the benefits can transcend the effort. July 25-31, 2013 buzz 9

FREUD'S LAST SESSION The Station Theatre, 223 N. Broadway Ave., Urbana $15 Opens July 25 Freud’s Last Session centers around legendary psychoanalyst Dr. Sigmund Freud, who invites a young, little-known professor C.S. Lewis to his home in London. Lewis, expecting to be called out for satirizing Freud in a recent book, soon realizes Freud has a much more significant agenda. On the day England enters World War II, Freud and Lewis clash on the existence of God, love, sex and the meaning of life— only two weeks before Freud chooses to take his own. —Jamila Tyler, Movies & TV Editor
