FROM THE EDITOR

Hite’s all right, says SRC KERITH GABRIEL

B

ill Hite has no reason to hate Mondays. This past Monday, the School District of Philadelphia announced that its superintendent received the gold star from the city’s School Reform Commission. The SRC, which is like the principal’s ofďŹ ce for city school ofďŹ cials, cites “academic progress, increased stability and positive momentumâ€? throughout the school district under Hite’s leadership. Hite also received improved marks in professionalism and community relations. Listen, let’s hope so. There is a massive inux of people ďŹ nding out that Philadelphia is a great city, but only a few plan to raise families within city conďŹ nes. In large swaths of gentrifying neighborhoods, the overall plan is to move here, enjoy all the city has to offer, have a kid (or two) and stay just long enough to get that kid through day care and pre-K and then it’s deuces Philly. So I ask the question: what can Hite do to get those that redeďŹ ne neighborhoods by moving into fabricated new construction homes, changing the skyline for better or worse (depending on who you ask)? What can he do to show while we thank you for your commitment to buying in Philadelphia and receiving an attractive tax abatement to do so in the process we also think you should consider the school in your area. You just may want to send your child there. The trinity of safety, exercise and access to a solid education is not too much to ask in a region where potential parents are shelling out top dollar to live in a rapidly gentrifying ghetto. For me, it’s taken baby steps, but Hite has been able to stop the bleeding in many cases. From selling off school buildings to become whatever the highest bidder wants to transform it to securing a much-needed contract for teachers, there are some notable notches on his belt. Nevertheless, the cash-strapped district could only afford to give Hite a salary bump of less than 4 percent (3.92 percent actually) to increase his annual six-ďŹ gure salary. Still, it’ll mark Hite’s only increase – raise, if you will – since 2012. I would welcome a chance to ask Hite just what his plans are for 2018, since his contract – which was extended – does not expire until

3+,/$'(/3+,$:((./< &20

2022. However, on the occasions I’ve tried there has been radio silence on the other end from the school district. To be expected; corporations (and trust me, that’s how this ship is run) rarely allow the chance for their leader to get caught in a tangle. Hite however appears to be a pretty outspoken individual. I mean’s he’s given a discussion at the National Constitution Center in front of an audience. However one thinks he’d be way more effective metaphorically kissing the actual babies. Listen, it does work both ways a little here, there are also a lot of spots in the city where schools a half mile away from each other are also separated by parents that actually give a damn and will chip in resources and feedback to make the school better – and ultimately more attractive. But in respect, that show of force should only come in intermittent waves considering the larger majority of Philadelphians dutifully pay ever-increasing annual school taxes. Drifting away here. In answering why the gracious nod to Hite, the SRC provided the following via statement: “The results of Dr. Hite’s steady leadership are evident across the School District of Philadelphia. These include another year with a balanced budget, sustained investments in classrooms, a contract with the Philadelphia Federation of Teachers and, most importantly, the increased academic achievement of our students. While there is still much to be done, we would like to thank Dr. Hite for providing Philadelphia with strong and consistent leadership which has been critical in moving us forward.â€? Read that and you want to believe that on the moxie of Hite’s leadership, it’ll be more than just a handful of schools in the district that’ll be deemed desirable enough to remain in Philadelphia past a child’s age to recognize the adult humor in Disney movies and SpongeBob SquarePants. In truth, here’s hoping Hite’s good marks mean a change in Philly schools, a move away from what most Philadelphians view as a hard truth transform into misconceptions up for debate. But the only way we’ll know is if we see more of the man the SRC says is pushing city schools in the right direction. It should come naturally. After all in this year’s evaluation, in the area of “human resource management,â€? “Hite’s marks move into the “ProďŹ cient.â€? Want to know the grade he received last year? One could compare it to the state of the schools he oversees: “Needs improvement.â€? Q

Seth gets his day in court OVERHEARD in PHILLY

“If I go to store and get two Dutches so I can roll up my medicinal marijuana and smoke this blunt, does that make it not legal anymore?� – A question that confused two twentysomethings waiting for the Broad Street Line to arrive at Walnut-Locust Monday afternoon. If you could only see the perplexed look on their faces. Comedic gold.

By the time you’re reading this, Seth Williams will have had his last day in court for awhile. By the time we went to print on Tuesday, a judge had awarded him his prison sentence. Federal prosecutors were asking for 5 years — and they likely got it. On top of that sentence, the feds also wanted the judge to force the disgraced DA to pay back $58,422 in restitution to his fraud victims, and also forfeit $33,765 to the federal government, the alleged value of the bribes he accepted while in ofďŹ ce.

According to the Inquirer, Froehlich offered $1 for every sign someone brought to his house, with a $200 cap. He met that quota and more by the next morning. And good for Froehlich.

COURTESY PHILADELPHIA EAGLES

Do we as Eagles fans love or hate all the national attention for having the best team in the NFL? After the Birds ran away with a commanding 34-24 season sweep of the Redskins improving to a league-best 6-1 on the year, what followed was high praise from pundits on almost every network – not to mention the complete love affair, man crush...whatever you want to call it on 24-year-old QB Carson Wentz. Not trying to burst bubbles, but the last time we had a national spotlight of this magnitude? We were referred to as the “Dream Team.�Just sayin’. Q

Save(d) our school If you attended Little Flower School for Girls, then you have some celebrating to do this weekend. Oct. 28 marks 25 years since the Archdiocese of Philadelphia overturned a decision to close the school. To never forget the ďŹ ght it took to save the Hunting Park institution, home to more than 35,000 young women since opening its doors since 1939, members of its alumnae are throwing a celebration called, “Little Flower Forever.â€? In addition to an open house, there will be tours of the school and a in true Catholic school fashion a party in the gymnasium. It’ll most certainly be a great time, but know that slow dancing will most likely be monitored vigorously by the Sisters. Q

FEATURE How long have you been working on “Reclaimed?â€? It’s been about a year and a half of conceiving, researching, and making the objects. Honestly this work has been percolating in me for quite sometime. It is a continuation of work I made in graduate school in 2008. In the interim, I started The Art Dept., and over the past four years I learned more ďŹ ber crafts (knitting, natural dyeing, embroidery, quilting). As I was learning these skills, I became curious about my own history with these crafts as a black woman.

What were your inspirations? The biggest inspiration and what propels this work are the materials we still use today like salt, sugar, cotton, tobacco, spices, herbs that are stained with the history of slavery and continue to be stained with the hard work of migrant labor. Beyond that, the stories and work of my ancestors provided a deep well of inspiration to me. The slave narratives express the breadth of work they did from knitting to woodworking in the face of dehumanizing abuse and mistreatment. My ancestors are not often outright acknowledged for the skilled craftsmen that they were. We still have a narrative in this country that discounts and diminishes the contributions black people have made to this country nee the world. That burning desire to personally pay homage to their work and sacriďŹ ce in building this country, that is what has inspired this work.

How did the project evolve as you worked? Emily Carris has arguably one of the most important art exhibits in the city right now with her “Reclaimed� exhibit.

SARAH ROSE ETTER

Q&A: Emily Carris We sit down with the curator of “Reclaimed,� the PMA-Worthy exhibition at The Art Dept.

Stepping through the doors of The Art Dept. (1638 E. Berks St.), a visual arts gallery and workshop space, Emily Carris’ exhibit, “Reclaimed,� might knock the wind out of you. The mixed media works focus on slavery through fabric, stitched photography, and artifacts alongside Carris’paragraphs of research. Each

of these materials come alive under her hand, resulting in an exhibit that belongs more rightly in the Philadelphia Museum of Art. This is one of the most important exhibits in Philadelphia right now – and you have until Oct. 28 to catch it. I spoke with Carris about her inspiration for“Reclaimed,�her process, and more.

I knew from the start that I wanted to work with salt, cotton, period correct materials, and natural dyes. I also knew that quilting, spinning, and knitting would be major techniques used in the work. These forms offered a great conduit for the intimacy of all the emotions in the work. As I researched and learned more about a given material or subject, I could see the connections between the narratives I was reading and the materials I was exploring.

Can you talk about why you chose “Reclaimed� as your title? The title is a little nod to the Queen Maxine Waters and her “Reclaiming my time� line. The self-procession, power, and strength in that line was so moving to me. In titling this show “Reclaimed,� I wanted to recognize the historical reclamation inherent in this work.

Your work is exquisitely researched. How did you pull all of these pieces together into a cohesive narrative? What sort of research were you doing while assembling this exhibit? I was interested in letting these recognizable materials speak their truth. Using historic vernacular gave the collection boundaries allow-

MUSIC able to ďŹ nd the correct team and the correct entry points. We’ve played some pretty awesome venues around the world, and we’re very proud of that. I think hopefully that this will now encourage other bands from the Arab world to say “OK, it’s feasible, it’s possible, people have done it.â€?

Even if they’re writing songs with Arabic lyrics. In your case at least, it seems the language barrier matters less and less as your sound evolves and the band gains more exposure.

Missed indie rockers Mashrou’ Leila’s appearance at the World Cafe Live? Catch up with the band here.

Philly, by way of Beirut Acclaimed (and controversial) Beirut-based band Mashrou’ Leila preps for its first-ever Philly show BY MAX MARIN

L

ast month, seven people were arrested for waving a rainbow-colored pride ag at a packed Mashrou’ Leila show in Cairo, Egypt. Charged with “promoting sexual deviancy,â€? the concertgoers could face both jail time as well as a forensic examination to determine if they have engaged in anal sex — a glaring reminder of the threats facing social freedom under Egyptian President Abdel Fatah El-Sisi. But the incident also highlights the mobilizing power of music in even the darkest of political climates. Mashrou’ Leila does not shy away from state oppression. The Beirut-based rockers’ music embraces homosexuality (lead singer Hamed Sinno is openly gay), female empowerment (see their new single “Romanâ€?), and the struggle for liberty in the Arab world. Controversial lyrics aside, their sound alone is worth catching live next Tuesday upstairs at World Cafe Live. From Balkan waltzes to indie rock ballads to more classical pop compositions, Mashrou’ Leila pushes into new aesthetic territory with each new album. Amid a busy tour schedule and teaching a social impact workshop at NYU’s Hagop Kevorkian Center, guitarist and keyboardist Firas Abou Fakher made some time to talk to Philly Weekly about the band’s journey.

2FWREHU 1RYHPEHU

You’re in the middle of a tour that’s taken you from Beirut to Belgium to Montreal — and now you’re playing your first gig in Philly. Do you guys get time off to explore these cities on tour at all? It depends on the tour schedule, but we rarely have enough time to go beyond the neighborhood we’re [playing] in. Going out in a morning before the show, having breakfast, walking around a bit. Sometimes we get lucky and there’s a day between booking on tours so we get to go out and see a museum or see a cool show.

Western media tends to feed stereotypes by depicting your band as this kind of enigma of the Middle East. I know you get a lot of stock questions from American reporters, so forgive me if you’ve heard this before. There aren’t many contemporary Arabiclanguage bands that have achieved the success you have and toured so widely in the West. How do you view your international success as an indie band from Beirut? There are deďŹ nitely other [Arab] bands that tour. For sure. But I guess somehow we’ve been lucky to be

We’ve found over time that our audiences are becoming less and less Arabic speakers. Obviously there’s still a very large majority [of] Arabic speakers from across the world. But to be sure, they’re not just Lebanese anymore, or not just Egyptian anymore. It’s quite a diverse variety of Arabic speakers and sometimes non-Arab Arabic speakers as well. A lot of people who are interested in the Arabic language, the Arab world, students who are studying Middle Eastern studies or international politics or literature. And then there’s people who just discovered our music through Spotify, YouTube, the charts, the media, the articles, the interviews, things like that.

like what happened in Egypt last month, when the aftermath of the show was so devastating.

Where are you writing and recording new work at the moment? We have a studio in Lebanon. For me, a lot of the writing happens at home. Everybody goes back to Beirut, I spend time in my house with a few of my keyboards and my piano and my guitar and write down ideas for a few weeks. Then we go into the studio. There’s been a step in composition and the way we conceive a musical release today. Things have changed so dramatically over the last three to four years. The way that music is consumed. How people look at music as an art form. But the way that music is produced has not. So we’re thinking about what the next interesting step for us would be. Somebody like Drake is doing very well with not just producing the music, but also producing instances of what the next project — mixtapes, a lot of remixes, a lot of features and guests and collaborative one-off projects. There’s not a very strong focus on the album as a project [anymore], which has been the case for god knows how long.

If you could collaborate with one artist — one Western and one Do you see a difference in how from the Arab world — who fans respond inside and outside would you pick? of the Arab world? In the Arab world, I would love It’s hard to pinpoint the difference between audiences here or audiences in, say, Egypt. It tends to depend on each show. We play two shows in a row in the same place and those two shows can be dramatically different. ‌ Last year after the Orlando shooting, that gave a speciďŹ c overarching avor to the shows that followed it [in the U.S.]. Our songs are quite critical of the discourse that revolves around the Orlando shooting. Suddenly our songs took on different meaning. ‌ It’s sometimes a question of something that happens in the press. A raid on a club. A discriminatory action, unfortunately. Or something

to work with someone like Abdel Halim or Abdel Wahab — the great orchestrators and arrangers who were working at a very interesting time in Arabic pop music. In the Western world, maybe Serge Gainsbourg. I’m a big fan of his work, from his avant-garde work to his orchestral pop. He has a very big musical [thought] and creative process that I really love.

COMEDY

FIVE QUESTIONS:

Josh Kosh

The Philly funnyman chops it up with PW ahead of his headlining show at Punchline comedy club next month BY KERITH GABRIEL

W

hen Josh Kosh looks at his life to date all he can do is laugh. It’s a series of events that has led to a career in comedy, spanning a decade in houses all across the country. From the famed Laff House Comedy Club to Helium’s legendary stage, this WynneďŹ eld native has seen the yin and the yang of being funny and wouldn’t trade any of it. OK, well maybe some of it. But not all. Next up for Kosh is the headlining act at Punchline Philly’s upcoming Philly All-Pro Comedy Showcase on Nov. 1. The monthly event, sponsored by PW, pumps out some of the best in funny Philadelphia has to offer. And for Kosh, excitement comes at the chance to be the big attraction in front of family and friends. PW caught up with Kosh to chat comedy in Philly, pre-show nerves and what takeaways are from a Josh Kosh production.

Did you always know you wanted to be a comic? Tell us how Josh Kosh happened. Actually, I had no idea; it happened accidentally to be honest. I got used to being laughed at or being laughed because of and actually I used to get really mad and upset by it, but I was working as a waiter in a restaurant and I came across a table of guys who said that the way I talked would make it perfect for me to be a stand-up comedian. It actually was something that crossed my mind before but never thought about doing it, but after hearing that it gave me the motivation to try. The guy who told me I should give it a go, his name was “Flash.� Which is sort of ironic since I’ve never seen him since.

OCT 27-28 Josh Kosh | Wednesday, Nov 1. 8pm (doors open at 7pm). Punchline Philly, 33 E. Laurel St. punchlinephilly.com ing I’m about to go out on stage and that unknown of wondering if a show is going to go well or if you’ll at least get a couple of people to laugh.

What’s the comedy scene like in Philly? Being around it for so long and having success are we all jaded by guys like Kevin Hart or is making it as a comic from Philly still a hustle? There are multiple facets of the comedy scene here in Philadelphia. Some guys frequent open mike scenes trying out new material, learning to be on stage and getting experience with smaller crowds. You also have [comics], who are just trying to ďŹ nd work whether it be small shows or large crowds. It can be a grind and a hustle and sometimes it’s one or the other. The grind part is the most important part because no one is going to pay you or think you’re talented if you don’t work at it and put that time in. You have to give the people what they want or they’ll let you know real quick that you’re wasting their time.

You’ve been on comedy stages all across the city, but what’s it like playing a show at Punchline Philly? Punchline is a great venue and because it’s in my hometown, it’s another great chance to invite friends and family to come see me for the ďŹ rst time or for the ďŹ rst time in a long time do a feature headlining show at a big venue.

When the spotlight goes off on your show what do you hope people take away from You’ve been in comedy for over a decade, do your show and your brand of comedy? you still get jitters? Do you have a pre-show I just hope they had a good time, man. Recritual? ognize that whatever they’ve been through or I’m the quiet type. I like to get in my head and get settled go through my set, tour the building if I’m unfamiliar with it, seeing where I can mesh new sets with older ones. Yeah, I mean I still experience nerves, but I don’t think I’d call it jitters. It’s more excitement of know-

whatever they’re going through it’s not as bad as it may seem. I look back at my crazy path to get to this point so I just try to give people something they can relate to. Everybody’s got a story. I’m gonna tell you mine and hope it makes you laugh, because it’s funny. Q

Saint Benjamin Brewing teamed up with Reanimator Coffee to bring you this delicious stout.

Three-time semifinalist for the coveted James Beard Award, chef James Burke will man the kitchen at the revamped Yards Brewing Company.

Known for its relaxed French-inspired cuisine, the folks over at The Good King Tavern want your take on their Duck of the Day.

Over in Kensington, St. Benjamin Brewery Company (1710 N. 5th Street) and Reanimator Coffee (1523 E. Susquehanna Ave.) are back with their collaborative brew, Junto. This kolsch-style beer is a straw-colored brew aged on whole coffee beans from Reanimator Coffee. Grab it in 12-ounce cans at their brewery and in selected bottle shops. Their seasonal beer rotation includes, CarriĂŠres a rustic, amber ale with notes of dark fruit and bread crust that dominate the aroma of this expressive, malt-forward beer. And Franklin’s Abbey Stout, a rich, velvety full-bodied beer with notes of dark chocolate and hints of dried fruit. In the “yeah, but I like festivals and stuffâ€? column... Mark your calendars for Thursday, Nov. 16 and Thursday, Dec. 21 as the brewery will be hosting a series of “DeBREW-tante Ballsâ€? at their taproom on the third Thursday of each month. Broad Street Burlesque performers will be on deck and attendees can enjoy a specially featured ďŹ rkin; admission is just $10 per person, and includes the show and a ďŹ rst beer from the week’s ďŹ rkin. Performers will vary monthly, with acts ranging from neoburlesque to vaudeville to sideshow and beyond. Doors will open at 7 p.m., and the show begins at 8 p.m. -----Despite only being around for two years, 2SP Brewing Company (120 Concord Rd. No.101-103, Aston, Pa.) has made their mark both locally and nationally by taking home awards for their brews. Head brewer Bob Barrar, dubbed “The Medal Machine,â€? has galvanized his reputation as being America’s preeminent brewer of the Russian Imperial Stout style with his 12th medal in the category. This year 2SP brought home their second consecutive gold medal in the Imperial Stout class at the Great American Beer Festival for The Russian. The Russian, an extremely labor intensive beer that they only brew twice a year. At 9 percent ABV it’s got notes of chocolate, coffee, licorice and hints of vanilla — giving the beer a nuanced creamy avor. -----Coming to Northern Liberties this November will be Yards Brewery and Taproom at 500 Spring Garden St. The new brewery will allow Yards to get into the canning game for the ďŹ rst time in company history. The bar will feature 20 total taps, including all Yards signature beers and a number of limited releases only available in the taproom. Chef James Burke, three-time semiďŹ nalist for the James Beard Award as chef-owner at JAMES and prominent face in the city’s culinary scene, will helm the ďŹ rst kitchen in the brewery’s 23-year history. He’s put together a casual menu with beer friendly snacks and entrees including, Yards Patty Melt, brawler onions and swiss, Smoked Cheddar Bratwurst with sauerkraut and house-made mustard, Roast Pork with

fermented broccoli rabe and provolone, and Beer Can Chicken served with fried potatoes. Adjacent to the taproom will be the Brewer’s Lounge, a hangout spot complete with a pool table, TV, dart board and shufeboard. -----On the spirits front, over on Passyunk Ave, Manatawny Still Works (1603 E. Passyunk Ave) released BATCH14, a honey-avored whiskey, as part of their small batch series. This release blends whiskey with Buckwheat and fall wildower honey from local apiary Swarmbustin’ Honey. On the nose you get honey, oak and wildowers, while on the palate look for sweet honey, caramel, vanilla and malt. Several vintages of Swarmbustin’ Buckwheat and fall wildower Honey were blended to create this cloudy spirit that comes with the note, “shake wellâ€? before imbibing. The whiskey starts with a velvety sweet honey taste, balancing the tannins from the oak, then it shines through with a pleasant bite before fading into the intricacy of the honeys. Try it at their tasting room on the avenue. -----For wine lovers, starting on Oct. 25, Le Virtu (1927 E. Passyunk Ave.) will be hosting a series of wine dinners called Vini e Amici, which include a complimentary hour-long wine tasting in their outdoor garden (weather permitting), followed by a cozy family-style meal of rustic, southern-Italian inspired fare such as, Roasted Eggplant with rosemary honey, Cavatelli with mushrooms and ricotta salata, Whole Roasted Branzino with roasted potatoes and salsa verde, dolci Olive Oil Poundcake with ďŹ gs, port, rosemary honey and olive oil gelato. Catch the next dinner on Wednesday, Nov. 29. ------

sotto with brussels sprouts, pomegranate, pumpkin seeds, and a Lamb Stroganoff with pappardelle, sour cream, mushrooms, trufe. Take advantage of the amazing weather and grab a seat outdoors and enjoy the view of the “Singing Fountain.â€? The Good King Tavern (614 S. 7th St.) in Queen Village, is one of the best spots to dig into classic cocktails and relaxed French-fare. This season they’ve introduced a Duck of the Day to their signature chalkboard specials. They’ve also updated their cocktail menu, and it doesn’t get much better than a classic Sazerac (rye whiskey, Demerara, bitters, absinthe) on a cool fall evening. Also give a go to the Paper Plane (bourbon, fresh lemon, aperol and nonino amaro) and the very intriguing Calindri Cure (cynar, malted gin, fresh ginger, Thai chili and tawny port). ------

Steeped in heritage

DesignPhiladelphia, the oldest running design-only festival architects another successful year COURTESY NEXTFAB

BY ANDREA CANTOR

D

id you know that Philadelphia is home to the oldest design festival in the country? For a large part of October, the Center for Architecture and Design ran its 13th annual DesignPhiladelphia. With an upwards of 130 events across the city, the festival highlighted the works from local and national designers, architects, and other creative professionals. “Philadelphia is a phrase that has been used over and over again. But it really was the workshop of the world for a very long time. It is where people made things. It is also a city that is steeped in design and design heritage,â€? said Rebecca Johnson, executive director of Center for Architecture and Design, the venue that promotes education of the name’s respected ďŹ elds. “To me, [DesignPhiladelphia] really is important, because it is a part of our history, our design legacy if you will.â€? While Johnson and the others of the DesignPhiladelphia team are still calculating the total number of visitors, she has a feeling “it is going to be big this year.â€? In the past, the October

festival has brought in more than 25,000 attendees. This year’s season started on Oct. 4 with a kickoff party at Jefferson University and ran through Oct. 14. The program included lectures, workshops, networking events, open houses and design crawls, performances, and more. “I think one of the things that is really different this year is that we looked at how to support local designers and the upcoming designers, because if we are not doing it then who is?â€? questioned Johnson, an organizer with the festival for four years. “This year we really focused on neighborhoods. We had neighborhood design crawls, and we made it easier for people to go to different places on different nights.â€? According to Johnson, the Center for Architecture and Design had more of a direct hand in this year’s programming than in the past. The nonproďŹ t coordinated an event with BOK Bar on Friday, Oct. 14 that showcased the designers of various mediums who created the furniture for the trendy rooftop spot. Centered on a panel discussion, the conversation was moderated by Giulio Cappellini of the

2FWREHU 1RYHPEHU

world-renowned Italian furniture company. The festival also challenged the notion that design is superďŹ cial. Health Promotion Council and AIA Philadelphia hosted FitCityPHL3 on Thursday, Oct. 13. The annual event was an all-day conference about the connection between health and design. Tom Judd, a ďŹ ne artist, worked the entirety of the festival on his chalkboard mural “An Apple a Dayâ€? to bring awareness of the hunger crisis in the Delaware Valley, which affects 750,000 people. Commissioned by MEDstudio, Philabundance, and Mural Arts Philadelphia, Judd drew more than 7,000 apples, with each apple representing 100 people, in front of the public audience in Lubert Plaza. “[Hunger is] sort of this invisible thing in our culture and in our country, where we are really not aware of what we are dealing with,â€? said Judd, a ďŹ rst time participant with the festival. “The design of it is that not only are there 7,000 apples, but I also put in these little messages hidden in the apples ‌ to speak to the hiddenness and invisibleness of the problem.â€? Philabundance Community Kitchen, with

previously food insecure servers who are now in the organization’s culinary program, catered the closing reception of Graphic Medicine and Chalkboard Chronicles. The event not only celebrated the fruits of Judd’s labor, but also highlighted the works and mission of MEDstudio at Jefferson University, the location of the reception. “What we see is that the further medical students move in their education, the lower empathy levels can get,â€? explained Trudy Anne Watt, co-director of research at MedStudio and senior fellow in emergent design and creative technologies in architecture and medicine. “Provost Mark Tykocinski, MD, brought in [MEDstudio] to create broad-minded healthcare professionals and physicians who are capable to use the values of art and design to maintain their own empathy through authentic communication amongst themselves, between physicians and patients, and also on the civic scale between the healthcare professional community and the city.â€? Whereas Judd’s performance art illustrated the current situation in the Delaware Valley, Fast Forward >> Philly held an event that looked at the city’s future landscape. On Friday, Oct. 13 at the Center for Architecture and Design, a number of emerging architects and designers proposed plans for potential projects to reshape Philly, from cleaning up the city’s streets to re-envisioning underpasses. “We started this in the hopes of connecting our community of architects and designers with the rest of Philly,â€? said Erike De Veyra, co-creator of Fast Forward >> Philly, which has been a part of the design festival for six-years. “There are a lot of similar events that are like this ‌ but the fact that we focused it on what’s next in PHL, what’s next here in Philly, really focuses people. I think it comes to talk about how much pride we have in the city, whether you are a transplant or you lived here all of your life.â€? Many of the presentations were hypothetical in nature, but all were grounded in research. De Veyra recalled in its premiere year, two presenters proposed that Philly could host the Olympics: “People kind of laughed at it, but years later it came up. Philly could be a contender for the Olympics. Some [presentations] may seem farfetched, but some you never know.â€? “We are all volunteers. DesignPhiladelphia, they have a machine of PR, they have been doing it for a decade, they know how to get the world out so I think that’s why we have so many people that we don’t know personally [at the event],â€? said co-creator of Fast Forward Philly DeVeyra. “It is our chance to use this platform for emerging design professionals to talk about what they see is what’s next for Philly.â€?

SAVAGE LOVE:

Getting some neck I

DAN SAVAGE

n a frank exchange early in our courtship, I told my girlfriend that I have no kinks. As a faithful reader of Savage Love, I’m obviously not opposed to kinks—but I’ve never had any inclinations in that direction and am probably a typical hetero vanilla. As a result, I’m damn near clueless in that area. Last night, my girlfriend placed my hands around her neck and asked me to choke her. My instant reaction was to say no, not out of any objection in principle but because I thought it might be dangerous in my inexperienced hands. Later I did comply, but I was deďŹ nitely holding back. I dearly love my main squeeze—clever pun there, huh?—and I want to be GGG, but‌ well, you see my misgivings. I know about safe words, but can we count on them when the recipient’s larynx is being compromised and she may be close to passing out? For the record, I had no difďŹ culty in acceding to her request to be bitten, as I know where and how hard I can do that without causing damage, but choking is an area of darkness for me. And let me note that my girlfriend has no grounding in medicine, physiology, or anything that would lead me to be comfortable trusting her judgment about choking. – Choke Holds Obligate Kink Education I have friends who are professional Dominants—women who will stick needles through the head of their client’s cock and post the bloody pics to Twitter—who refuse to do breath play and/or choking scenes. “It’s impossible to control for all the variables,â€? said Mistress Matisse, a professional dominatrix with more than 20 years of experience. “People think choking isn’t kinky, but it is. People think it’s a low-risk activity, but it’s not. Choking isn’t just about the lungs. It can affect the brain and the heart—it can affect the whole body—and if the bottom has underlying health issues, things can go disastrously wrong. I feel strongly about this.â€? Wrapping something around someone’s neck—your hands, a belt, a rope—is the most dangerous form of breath control/play, Matisse emphasized, and simply cannot be done safely. Fragile bones (like the hyoid bone), nerves, arteries, veins—the neck is a crowded place, it’s vulnerable, and putting sustained pressure on

3+,/$'(/3+,$:((./< &20

someone’s neck is extremely risky. Matisse also noted: “The person doing the choking needs to be aware that they’re on the hook legally—for at least manslaughter charges—if the person who asked to be choked should die. People have gone to jail for this kind of ‘play.’â€? Jay Wiseman, author of SM 101, not only takes a similarly dim view of choking, CHOKE, he’s served as an expert witness at the trials of people who choked someone to death during sex. “It’s always inherently life-threatening, and it’s always inherently unpredictable,â€? said Wiseman. “It’s more dangerous than suffocation, as you can get into deeper trouble more quickly. People have died from a few seconds of being choked. There simply are no landmarks—meaning, you can’t say to a reasonable degree of medical certainty that if you ‘only’ choke someone for 30 seconds, they’ll be okay. People have died after being choked for less than 30 seconds.â€? I’m tempted to leave it there, CHOKE, because I worry that anything else I might say— anything remotely equivocal—could result in one idiot choking another to death. But the fact of the matter is that choking, despite the risks, is a relatively common kink, and almost all deaths related to breath play occur during solo scenes, not partnered scenes. So I’m going to give you a little advice about meeting your girlfriend’s particular needs safely, i.e., without wrapping your hands around her neck. So your partner wants to be choked? “What most people who are into choking want is to feel controlled,â€? said Matisse. “So put your hand over her mouth. Grab her hair, wrap an arm around her shoulder—not her neck—and put your other hand over her mouth. That should satisfy the urge.â€? Another option, CHOKE, is a gas mask. If it’s not too disturbing a look—if it’s not a boner-killer—you can put a gas mask on someone, cover the breathing hole with the at of your hand, and cut off your partner’s air. All they have to do when they need a breath is shake their head, which will break the seal created by your palm and allow them to breathe. And ďŹ nally, CHOKE, you could—if you really like this woman—take a stage combat class or book a session with a ďŹ ght choreographer. There are safe choke holds used on stage, where the person being choked is in control and no actual pressure is placed on the neck. Q Follow Mistress Matisse on Twitter @mistressmatisse.
