“Sherlock’s New Season” By Movies and TV Staff
We’ve been waiting for this record for a long, long time. Was the wait worth it? Tyler Durgan thinks so, and you should, too.
I’ve always been obsessed with pop culture and entertainment, and by extension the Internet, but there comes a point every once in a while when it’s just too much. That’s what happened to me this week. Being “plugged in” to the world around us is pretty much a fact of modern life that we can’t avoid, but it’s important to get away from all that stuff before you go insane. Too much negativity, too much bickering, too much insanity. After the Super Bowl (which turned out to be a disappointing game), it was discovered that the Red Hot Chili Peppers, who joined Bruno Mars for the halftime show, didn’t even bother to plug in their instruments. An Internet uproar ensued, with detractors deriding them as phonies and supporters saying that the weather would have distorted the sound. Honestly, it doesn’t make much of a difference to me, as people definitely would have been complaining either way. Another subject of pop-culture debate this week was the speculation of an upcoming “Celebrity Boxing Match” pitting George Zimmerman against a revolving door of hip-hop artists. Famously aggressive (and troubled) New York emcee DMX told TMZ he would be willing to fight and that he’d “break every rule in boxing to make sure I fuck him up right.” DMX also claimed that he would be doing this in honor of Trayvon Martin, the teenager Zimmerman followed, shot and killed. It doesn’t take a great deal of analysis to see why this is a fucking horrible idea. Zimmerman isn’t a celebrity. He hasn’t done anything worthwhile to contribute to society. He’s “famous” for profiling and killing a black teenager and getting off on the charges. Sure, I wouldn’t mind seeing him get what he deserves, but this isn’t what he deserves. He’s going to get more publicity (what he wants), a huge cut of the purse and maybe a concussion. Does that really compare to the amount of suffering he has put the Martin family through? Does that even scratch the surface of what he signifies to minorities in America? In (marginally) less depressing news, Bill Nye debated Ken Ham in another edition of “Highly Publicized, Completely Unnecessary Things” about the merits of teaching evolution vs. creationism in school. Long story short, when asked what would change his mind, Nye said, “Evidence.” Ham said nothing can change his faith. Nobody learned anything. In the past week, we also lost Philip Seymour Hoffman, one of the great actors of his generation, at the age of 46. On Thursday, February 20, the Art Theater will play a double feature in his honor, hopefully reminding all of us of the more positive sides of popular culture.
The STACHE is back.

CAN YOUR HEART BEAR IT? BY KRYSTYNE JONES It’s that time of year again, when white, red and pink fill the aisles of most stores. Valentine’s Day is quickly approaching, and it’s time to figure out how to celebrate it with the ones you love. Because Valentine’s Day is viewed by many as being the most loving day of the year, it can be slightly annoying to those who don’t celebrate it. But who says Valentine’s Day should only be dedicated to the person you love? Wouldn’t Valentine’s Day be that much more exciting if you could spend it learning about a sport you love? How about your favorite football team? If you’re a Chicago Bears fan, you’re in luck. On Friday, February 14, the Virginia Theatre will be hosting “Chicago Bears History – An evening with Patrick McCaskey” from 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. McCaskey is the senior director of the Chicago Bears Organization and will be speaking about his experiences as a 36-year member of the organization. McCaskey is the author of two books: Bear with Me: A Family History of George Halas and the Chicago Bears and Sports and Faith: Stories of the Devoted and the Devout. He also serves as the chairman of Sports Faith International, a group that recognizes those who are not only good at sports but are also leaders in other aspects of their lives. Both books will be sold at the event in the eastern lobby of the Virginia Theatre. Tickets are $9 for adults and $5 for senior citizens. The Virginia Theatre is located at 203 W. Park Ave. in Champaign.
circumstances: This weekend, I’ll be entering an age of enlightenment. I will be able to legally purchase alcoholic beverages. While many people celebrate this endeavor by throwing some sort of shindig or going out, I have been stumped as to how I really want to follow suit. Do I go out? Do I throw a house party? I’ve had The White Stripes' “I Just Don’t Know What to Do with Myself” mentally on repeat the past couple of weeks amidst wondering. However, in a recent turn of events, I now know how I will be celebrating the swift tidings of lawful booze procurement and supple womanhood. I will be returning to my home state, Wisconsin, to see my favorite band (Neutral Milk Hotel) on the eve of my impending young adulthood. Even better, I will be seeing them for 1/3 of the original ticket price. The best thing about all of this, though, is how it came together through random good fortune when I thought the night was a completely lost cause. Please note, if I pee my pants from the sheer luck of the circumstances that helped achieve this dream I did not think possible, it is not due to a bladder infection (this time). It is due to sheer excitement and breaking the seal of being a dazed 20-something. Extreme shout out to my old coworker, Emily, who happened to have extra tickets, sold them at a decent price and is about to pop out some beautiful twin babies. On top of all of this, I will be able to buy me some good Wisconsin brews. To quote Homer Simpson’s philosophy on the matter, “Homer no function beer well without.”

be real. I hate riding the crimson wave. I loathe entering a Walgreens and having this built-in sense of shame follow me around like a small raincloud of embarrassment. It drives me bonkers that every month I go through excruciating internal bleeding, and yet it is tossed off as “gross” or “inappropriate.” It’s actually metal as fuck. A bunch of baby eggs cracking that cause me to bleed and feel like someone is playing Jenga with my uterus? AND I LIVE? Just save yourself the trouble and start playing some Slayer now. However, I recently learned about the thing that is “menstrual huts.” Apparently in some societies, “menstruating women were believed to be dangerously powerful, capable of harming crops and draining the spiritual powers of men. To avoid such harm they withdrew to menstrual huts outside the villages,” according to historian Sara Evans. Where’s my menstrual hut? I don’t get a goddamn hut to share with other folks who feel my pain. I just get an uncomfortable experience with convenience clerks and a bloated lower body that feels like it’s leaking gasoline and someone threw in a match. Sigh.

1X 5.417 rigid, salty tears glistened on the resigned faces of untold numbers of fans worldwide 1/8th page as Tenth Doctor David Tennant bid adieu to his audience with a heartfelt “I don’t want to go!” before being lost in a flash of golden Time Lord regeneration energy and the arrival of the bow tie aficionado Eleventh Doctor, played by Matt Smith. But, even after a few years, if you (like me) still wake up in the middle of the night and cry your heart out, pining for the good old days of when your favorite spiky-haired Scotsman yelled “Allons-y!” before whisking another attractive 20-something “companion” into his TARDIS, then you’re in luck — Tennant is still a constant presence on British screens and even a few American films. Though Tennant has been in far too many roles since his Doctor Who departure for them all to be catalogued here, the following are some of his most significant parts (in many of which he finally uses his natural, huskily beautiful Scottish voice), included either for their popular success or simply because I enjoyed them.
F
Fright Night (2011): In this 2011 remake of a 1985 horror film, a high school student discovers that his next-door neighbor Jerry is a murderous vampire and enlists the help of Vegas magician and vampire-hunter Peter Vincent, played by David Tennant, to destroy Jerry. Tennant brilliantly chan-

nels himself as the showman, egotist badass, delivering hilarious lines like “Let’s kill something” and “I’m a great date. Get me drunk, I’ll try anything,” with a deadly straight face. The movie itself is a darkly hilarious take on classic B-movie material that finely skirts the line between parody and homage in a style similar to Wes Craven’s Scream series. Broadchurch (2013): A quaint British coastal town called Broadchurch is shocked to find a child’s murdered body on the beach, and angstridden detective Alec Hardy, played by Tennant, is called in to track down the killer alongside Olivia Coleman as Detective Sergeant Ellie Miller in this British television show. What follows is a highly intriguing whodunit that, while falling prey to many of the usual mystery story tropes such as obvious red herrings and ridiculously cliche backstories (the hard-boiled detective, suffering from depression after a failure on his last case, throws himself into his grisly work to make it right) still manages to keep the audience focused on the seriousness of the crime as opposed to the game-like nature that many similar shows and novels take. Additionally, the show utilizes excellent performances to make seemingly incredible and labyrinthine subplots believable. With Tennant’s natural Scottish accent and scruffy, unsympathetic exterior in Broadchurch,
it makes for a rude break with his charmingly quirky and childishly endearing performance as the Doctor. Tennant’s new role is much more down-to-earth, flawed and human. The stark contrast leaves me constantly expecting Tennant’s Doctor to break forth from Hardy, giggling his head off and striding into the TARDIS to nab the killer before he can commit the crime. The Escape Artist (2013): In this three-part BBC series, flawlessly articulate and ruthlessly brilliant lawyer Will Burton (Tennant) is known as “The Escape Artist” because of his stunning ability to weasel his clients out of trouble, no matter how serious their crimes and how conclusive the evidence against them appears to be. He manages to force his latest client, a suspect in a brutal murder trial, off the hook on a technicality. But when the murderer comes after his own family with devastating results, Burton takes the low ground to exact extra-judicial vengeance on the murderer he so impeccably defended. Tennant again delivers an amazing performance as an equivocator and legal strategist of nearly unparalleled skill, though (rarely for portrayals of lawyers) he also manages to humanize his character through his depression following the murderer’s crime against his family and through his calculated expression of rage and revenge.

ere at the University, students can browse a bevy of restaurants, ranging in fare from fragrant Indian buffets to bubbling Korean stews or a marinated rack of Southern-style ribs. What if that variety came to you free, courtesy of the Office of Inclusion and Intercultural Relations (OIIR)? It does exist, tried and true, as the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lunch On Usâ&#x20AC;? seminar series. Educational opportunities arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hard to come by on a college campus, but the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lunch on Usâ&#x20AC;? weekly programs offer students not only a free lunch but an educational experience they wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t otherwise be able to take part in. Enjoy a slice of your favorite deep dish pizza or a plate of steaming pad thai as your brain gets something just as delicious to chew on. For 15 weeks this spring, Monday through Friday, OIIR centers across campus offer knowledge alongside a bite to eat. Initially springing up from the Asian American Cultural Center (AACC) over five years ago, the program consisted of a dozen students brownbagging their lunches and listening to brief presentations. Since then, OIIR expanded on this tradition and created â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lunch On Us,â&#x20AC;? mobilizing free food and lectures to bring people together. Every week, OIIR centers like the LGBT Resource
Center, Bruce D. Nesbitt African American Center and La Casa each get their own day to host a noontime dialogue or talk with students. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Food in itself centers us all together,â&#x20AC;? said Kenny Importante, assistant director of the AACC, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would say a lot of people can come together as a community.â&#x20AC;? Whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Resource Centerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dish It Upâ&#x20AC;? or the Native American Houseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Chat â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Nâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Chew,â&#x20AC;? students and members of the community unite in the pursuit of a hot topic and a hot lunch. Recent presentations include educational psychology grad student Michelle Floresâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x153;My Fourth Time Going to Jail in a Year: A Latinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Experience with Prison Psycho-educational Programmingâ&#x20AC;? and ways to get involved with local, continued education from Samuel Byndom, director of Urbana Adult Education. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lunch On Usâ&#x20AC;? never fails to maintain a diverse group of seminar speakers. While professors sometimes chime in, registered student organizations, graduate student panels and community members also take the lead. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s this sense of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s make this a community related program,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;?

FLIPPING THE RECORD Exile on Main Street is movin’ out BY MADDIE REHAYEM

C
hampaign is lucky to have a record store like Exile On Main Street. It’s the go-to place to purchase music from local bands. Owner Jeff Brandt buys records from local collectors. Special community events are held in the shop. The employees play music around town. There is even local art on display and for sale. So, needless to say, it was shocking to hear that Brandt would not be renewing the shop’s lease this year. Exile will relocate by October 1, Brandt said. The current space has become too small due to the recent vinyl resurgence. Brandt said when the shop opened, it housed mostly CDs, DVDs and video

games, but its growing stock of new and used vinyl records is just too large for such a small space that hosts so many in-store events. The shop may move in with comic store G-Mart or into a space in the old train station on Chestnut Street. Although the move will require a name change (Brandt joked about calling his newly located store Exiled From Main Street after the move from its current Main Street location), the exact location isn’t too important. What’s important is that it stays local. “Any good, self-respecting record store has ties to the community in a way that make it uniquely embedded in that place,” Brandt said. He’s from
Champaign and has worked in record stores since he was in high school. When Exile opened, he felt gratified to be able to continue that tradition. It hasn’t been an easy road. Brandt’s customers come and go, the student customers on a four-year cycle. But even though they graduate and move away, he also sees parents bringing prospective students in and telling them: “See, there’s a record store here. There’s a place you can go to.” Employee Isaac Arms said one of the most fulfilling things about working at Exile was helping people start collecting vinyl and then seeing those same customers come back for more.
“They consider and care for and curate their collection, and as a fellow record collector, there’s unique joy to it,” Arms said. It’s been over nine years now that Exile has been open. In that time, music has become more and more digitally available. Now, streaming services threaten takeover. Record stores, however, are irreplaceable. “It’s hard to sell stuff that’s easily replaced by modern technology,” Brandt said. “(But) most people that shop here, that have kept this place in business, are the kind of people that appreciate the store, not just what they’re buying.”

STRIKING THE RIGHT CHORD
Ashley Fu-Tsun Wang and Ya-Wen Wang win presitigous 21st Century Piano Commission Award BY REBECCA JACOBS
A
shley Fu-Tsun Wang and Ya-Wen Wang have worked together before, but this time they are assembling their own concert to showcase their talents at the Krannert Center For Performing Arts on February 12. Being able to compose, direct and perform their own concert is possible because of a prize the two won together. Ashley and Ya-Wen won this year’s 21st Century Piano Commission competition. The full prize includes $2,000 to be split between the two of them, a concert at Krannert and the prestige of including the award on their resumes. The award has two parts: one award to a composer and one award to a pianist. However, Ashley and Ya-Wen teamed together in applying for the award. “It was Ashley who first invited me to participate in this competition with her,” Ya-Wen said. “I was really flattered and excited.” The two planned the repertoire of their proposal together, but worked separately to fulfill their individual requirements as composer and pianist. “I submitted a selection of my compositions and Ya-Wen submitted a CD of her perfor-

mances for the selection committee,” Ashley said. “We also submitted a proposal with all of the works intended for the concert program.” After that, Ya-Wen said all that was left to do was “hope for the best.” The decision was made by a University faculty committee, which announced the winners via email. Now, Ashley and Ya-Wen are preparing for their performance. The pair said there are a lot of logistics to consider for their performance, in addition to rehearsal time. Ashley is composing new work for the performance, combining piano and percussion. “It took a lot of work to find enough performers for these pieces,” Ashley said. “I have a string quartet coming from Cincinnati, a percussionist from Utah, in addition to performers from University of Illinois.” Meanwhile, Ya-Wen is preparing pieces aside from Ashley’s composition. Ya-Wen is playing John Cage’s “Sonata for the Prepared Piano.” For this half of the performance, Ya-Wen had to buy special materials, such as rubbers and nails, which she said were fun to test out. “We want to present a concert that show-
cases the diverse range of the solo piano,” Ashley said. As the two prepare for their concert, both are currently working toward a Doctor of Musical Arts degree at the University. Before this award, Ashley and Ya-Wen have each been recognized for their talents. Ashley’s music has performed in North America, Europe and Asia, including at Carnegie Hall. YaWen has also won multiple awards, including first prize at the National Hsin-Chu University of Education Symphony Orchestra Concerto Competition. Ya-Wen has performed two of Ashley’s pieces. At the concert, the two will perform together once again.
The concert will be performed in Foellinger Great Hall in the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts at 7:30 p.m. on February 12. Around 150 people are expected to attend. Following the concert will be a reception to present the awards and recognize donors of the commission.

ndi go Artist Co-op sets itself apart from other art galleries in that it features local art. Located on 9 E. University Ave. in Champaign, this gallery was founded the philosophy that “visual space has essentially no owner,” as stated on its website. “We are looking for artists who have a welldeveloped portfolio and are able to successfully fill our gallery space,” gallery director Caroline Baljon said. The co-op allows artists to show off their work while allowing the general public to view, and even purchase, the art that it displays. indi go Artist Co-op also has a multi-functional space located above the gallery called The Loft, which opened in January. The Loft is available for members of the community to rent out for private events, musical performances, film showings, special lectures and many other events that inspire creative minds. Becoming a member of the co-op gives artists a chance to showcase their talent and abilities while allowing the community to grow culturally. Membership to the indi go Artist Co-op is available for purchase from $25 and up. Thanks to the support of the co-op's members, artists are provided space for $50, or $25 for students, along with paying 25 percent commissions from any works sold. This allows artists to gain exposure and potential buyers at a small price. “We aim to act as a launching board for young artists and a space for local artists to showcase their talents,” Baljon said. In addition, the gallery is expanding into a music and performance venue, asking for 50 percent of any admission costs from concerts and performances. Additionally, indi go Artist Co-op promotes of all of its exhibits through newsletters, Facebook events and invites, Twitter and Facebook statuses, two community calendars and post-

exhibit picture post on Facebook. Currently at indi go, artist John Harlan Norris is showcasing his exhibit “Occupants.” The exhibit will be on display at the gallery until Monday, February 10, and the opening reception will take place on Saturday, February 8, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Norris is an assistant professor of art at Arkansas State University in Jonesboro, Ark. His art has been displayed in exhibits and venues all across the country, and he was awarded an Individual Artist Fellowship from the Arkansas Arts Council in 2012. The "Occupants" exhibit features portraits of subjects that are concealed by the signifiers of their daily lives and occupations. “I seek to look at the subject through a contemporary lens that observes some of the increasing uncertainties and complexities surrounding notions of profession and employment today,” Norris said. Norris finds inspiration for the subjects of his portraits through the news, films and books, which he absorbs and filters into his art. The work that Norris creates and displays is meant to help people find meaning and fulfillment in their daily lives, despite the obstacles and uncertainties that constantly surround them. “It is a message that hopefully acknowledges the complexities of our current social and economic landscape, but one that is ultimately hopeful and celebrates our capacity for both imagination and reinvention," Norris said. "Put simply, I hope people can see something they recognize in the portraits, despite how strange and foreign they may appear at first."

The Sullivan Project | Lost Lake by David Auburn
Continued from page 5 Even with alumni often returning to the University as speakers or panelists, the community remains at the center. Food has a way of bringing people together, and these presentations serve as a way to make students aware of many issues affecting their community. “It’s not just the AACC,” Importante said. “I would say that the Native American population, African-American community and the Latino community, food is pretty much what binds people together.” The “Lunch On Us” seminars also give students a space to learn about what these centers are providing. “In and across many different cultures, food and coming together or breaking bread together is certainly something that becomes really central,” said Rachel Storm, assistant director of the Women’s Resource Center. “In a lot of places, across lines of difference, we have people coming together across the table for conversation, for dialogue, and I think that food presents that option.” The centers are conscious of “Lunch On Us,” especially about what students learn during the presentations. “There is the risk of someone assuming that a culture can be reduced to its food or reduced to an experience that can be shared with other people,” Storm said. “We really try to educate (students) about how identity can be something that is embodied, that is perhaps shared among a particular community.” “Lunch On Us” focuses on the students. Directors gauge interest of popular restaurants and order meals based on impromptu student polling. Breaking the stereotype of food in relation to culture, the centers vary their food week to week. With different cultural centers hosting a separate seminar every week with a wide range of food choices, students never know exactly what they will receive. To find out when and where to learn and lunch next, check out the “Lunch on Us” presentations schedule, available online at http://oiir.illinois. edu/events/lunch.
