ASCSU ELECTION

ASCSU candidates: Hailey Morton and Yuval Rosenthal

By Piper Davis @PiperLDavis

With the slogan “Your Choice for Change,” Hailey Morton and Yuval Rosenthal seek to improve the interconnectedness and representation of all student voices on campus if elected as the president and vice president of the Associated Students of Colorado State University.

Morton and Rosenthal stress the importance of advancing inclusivity, transparency, and connections between the student body and members of ASCSU. “Communication is the key to success and I believe our ASCSU offices have a lot of great ideas but not necessarily a means in which we can communicate and build on them,” Morton said.

Morton and Rosenthal also believe there is a lack of representation and incorporation between certain groups and members of the student body with ASCSU. “We both reached out to different offices on campus and realized there is a lack of diversity in ASCSU’s executive branch, so we want to create relationships between student government and these different diverse communities on campus,” Morton said.

Morton and Rosenthal aspire to create more inclusivity by created a board of 10 liaisons within the executive branch for eight different Student Diversity Program and Service offices, Greek life and club sports.

“There are so many different groups on campus and these communities have never been bridged together,” Morton said.

“But, if we are able to create a council with these liaisons we can hear from more voices on

campus that normally aren’t represented.”

They have also devised a system in which students will be able to see where their money is going.

“We want to create an email system that once a budget gets passed and approved by senate it will be sent out to the student body for them to see where their student dollars go,” Rosenthal said. “This will help us increase transparency... and know more about how students feel about the budget and where they want their money to be going.”

They are also seeking to create an effective survey system where students who are registering for classes can see ratings from of classes and teachers from all other students who have taken the class before.

“We would like surveys to go digital and obviously, this go towards a sustainability effort as well because it will be saving a ton of paper,” Morton said.

“Before they register for classes, we would like students to have access on RamWeb to see what kinds of environments these classrooms are creating and how the professors interact with students.”

They believe that this will create more transparency between professors and students, and it will also incentivize professors to create a preferable learning environment.

Beyond their efforts to create a participatory environment for all students, Morton and Rosenthal have promised to cut their compensation if they are elected.

“We don’t see the necessity in being one of the highest paid student positions on campus, so we are aiming to decrease our pay,” Rosenthal said. “But, we do not want to decrease the pay for the other members of ASCSU because we want to incentivize people to join a meaningful administration.”

Morton and Rosenthal plan to use the difference from their anticipated and designated pay and put it towards whatever the student body thinks is necessary.

“We know it won’t be a lot of money,” Morton said. “But, we hope to at least support the creation of something that can make a difference.”

Hailey Morton, Presidential Candidate Morton, a junior, is pursuing a triple major in political science, spanish, and somen’s studies along with a minor in Latin American Studies. She is also a member of the Golden Poms team.

resentative Jared Polis, State Senator John Kefalas, State Representative Jeni Arndt and State Representative Joann Ginal. Morton currently works at the Colorado State Capitol as an intern for Senator Steve Fenberg and serves on the Central Committee as one of its youngest members in history.

Although Morton has no previous experience with ASCSU, she believes this is more of a benefit than setback.

“ASCSU has lacked in being transparent with students and including them in on what is going on within ASCSU,” Morton said. “Yuval is beneficial because he knows the ins and outs of ASCSU from his involvement.

Coming from my involvement in state and local politics, I believe that I bring in a different voice that can represent students who haven’t been involved with ASCSU before.”

Yuval Rosenthal, Vice Presidential Candidate Rosenthal, a sophomore double majoring in economics and political science, was born and raised in Israel. He moved to Canada at the age of 14 to play hockey before committing to play for CSU. In ASCSU, he works as an associate senator for the College of Liberal Arts, an executive member on the Liberal Arts College Council and as a member of International Affairs committee.

He is also the President of CSU’s Division 1 hockey team and served in the Israeli military, where he commanded a team of nine.

Rosenthal believes that becoming Vice President of ASCSU will help integrate the opinions and ideas of international students due to his background. He speaks four languages and said he is involved with the international community on campus.

“From my interaction with other international students across campus, some people are disadvantaged without having English as their first language in being able to really reach out to others,” Rosenthal said. “I think our student government has not really opened those doors for international students. We want to create an environment where all students can get involved.”

Rosenthal believes that it is important for everyone to get involved in politics on campus, regardless of their walk of life.

“There is a lot of change that needs to be done,” Yuval said.

“And, we feel as though we have the connections to not only make change, but involve all students to make a difference as well.”

Students question new American flags in classrooms

By Haley Candelario @H_Candelario98 Some students at Colorado State University have noticed a new detail in their classrooms, a small American flag hanging in a black frame at the front of the room.

Julia Andrade, a junior majoring in biomedical sciences, said she has not noticed the American flags in any of her classrooms.

“All of my classes are in the science buildings, and I haven’t noticed any flags in there,” Andrade said. “If they just showed up recently, that’s kind of strange, especially with the political turmoil that has been going on. Why now?”

Although Andrade has not noticed the flags, she does not see an issue with them being in classrooms.

“It’s not a huge deal. There’s flags all over campus,” Andrade said. “There’s a huge flag pole in the middle of campus. I don’t see (anything) wrong with that.

We’ve grown up with flags in our classrooms all our lives, like in elementary school.”

Mariana Dart, a sophomore transfer student studying biology, noticed the flags during her second semester in her calculus class at the Engineering building.

“At first ... I thought (the professor) had put the American flag in, but then I noticed it on the wall in another classroom,” Dart said. “I certainly have (noticed the flags) since then, so I realize they’re up.”

Dart said she did not have a strong reaction to the flags

initially, but her opinions have changed in the current political climate.

“I think sometimes American flags, especially recently, are kind of like political statements in a way,” Dart said. “I was sort of like, ‘Oh, okay.’ Taken aback might be a strong word, but I wondered who had put them there and why.”

Tom Satterly, the associate vice president for Facilities Management, wrote in an email to the Collegian that the flags are required to be in classrooms due to the state statute, C.R.S 27-9110, that was passed in 1996.

Satterly wrote, with the addition of new buildings, Facilities Management checked other buildings that needed replacements for missing flags.

“Occasionally, flags go missing from classrooms,” Satterly wrote. “With new classrooms coming soon that will need flags, Facilities Management checked all classrooms for flags (during the fall semester) to note any additional replacement flags that were needed.”

While the reason flags go missing is unknown, Satterly mentioned some flags were removed from classrooms due to recent remodeling and classroom maintenance, and then reinstalled.

According to Satterly, 83 flags were installed in general assignment classrooms after a recent audit by Facilities Management, and about 20 flags are on hold to be installed over the summer in new building classrooms.

“I think we go to a school that is kind of in an area where it’s geographically just a popular sentiment to be patriotic,” Dart said. “I don’t know if the purpose of putting the flags (up) was political, but I think that they do kind of make a political statement regardless if that was the intention.”

Dart believes the appearance of the flags is strange since many of her professors and classmates are not from the United States and may not express a similar patriotic sentiment.

“It’s kind of interesting to be in a room full of these people who are really contributing a lot to CSU, and do not identify as from the United States, but we have these American flags up in all the rooms,” Dart said. “I don’t know if it’s necessarily someone’s intention to subordinate groups of people, but I do think it kind of has that effect ... because it’s kind of pushing this patriotic message at people who might not necessarily feel that way and who aren’t even from the United States in some cases.”

CEO of Water For People addresses water sustainability

By Sarah Ehrlich @SarahEhrlich96

Around the world 1.8 billion people do not have access to safe water and 2.4 billion lack access to adequate sanitation, according to Eleanor Allen, the CEO of Water for People.

Allen spoke about water sustainability and building a water infrastructure for World Water Day on March 22.

Water For People is a Denver-based nonprofit organization that works across nine countries to bring safe water and sanitation to over four million people.

“Women and children spend more than four hours walking for water each day and more than 840,000 people die each year from water-related diseases,” Allen said.

In addition to traveling to these countries to build wells, install indoor plumbing and pumps, the volunteers of Water For People educate and reach out to the community and gov-

ernment they wish to help.

In conjunction with CSU Hydrology Days and World Water Day, Allen’s lecture was part of the second annual Dr. Norm Evans Endowed Lecture Series, which are dedicated to educating others on water management, education and policy.

The evening began with Reagan Waskom, the director of the Colorado Water Institute and the chair of the Colorado State U niversity Water Center, introducing Allen and speaking about the importance of water conservation.

“Once you have clean water and sanitation you can move onto the next step and move up the hierarchy,” Waskom said. “I think we could also do a better job taking care of the ecosystem once we tackle those problems.”

Allen’s lecture focused on water being a global currency that should be available to everyone and how building water infrastructure will make that easier to do. Water practices and ideas developed here in Colorado

and across the U.S. are playing a large part in water development in countries who need it most.

Allen also encouraged people to become “water diplomats” who provide education and solutions to the world’s most concerning water issues.

“Our population will continue to grow and place demands on our already low fresh water supply,” Allen said. “We can take care of our water and allocate it better because I actually believe there is enough water for everyone.”

Water For People works with government officials and communities to create projects to resolve various water access and sanitation issues.

Allen met with the mayor of Rwanda in 2011 to create the model for a project called “Everyone Forever: access to safe water and sanitation for every family, clinic and school, forever.” By working with the national government, Water For People is implementing Everyone Forever in every district of

Rwanda and will soon be put into action in other countries as well.

“Everyone Forever is about building infrastructure,” Allen said. “But perhaps more importantly it’s about creating utilities and training professionals that can operate and maintain water systems.”

As a civil and environmental engineer, Allen spoke of the importance of scientific studies dedicated to more efficient water systems. Colorado is on the forefront of this research, which has been shared across the nation to make smarter systems dedicated to conserving what we have and avoiding divergence as much as possible while creating these systems.

Emilie Abbott, a civil and environmental engineering student and intern for the CSU Water Center, believes population growth and climate change are the main points of discussion when thinking about water.

“Here we’re seeing the need

to share between agriculture and cities to meet water demands for everyone,” Abbott said. “Cities are working on conservation measures and looking into innovative techniques for water reuse.”

The lecture ended with audience discussion where one question was asked about the kind of advice she would like to give to CSU students interested in water. Allen mentioned that students at CSU are lucky to have unique program opportunities that she never got to experience.

“Work will be there for the rest of your life, so follow your heart and take time to travel and discover,” Allen said.

“Take this window of opportunity to discover what you like and what you want to become great at.”

Traveling suicide awareness exhibit coming to Colorado State Friday

Suspect arrested for Islamic Center vandalism @H_Candelario98

By Jenn Yingling @jenn_yingling

Send Silence Packing, an exhibit of over 1,100 backpacks representing the number of college students who die by suicide each year, will be on campus from 8 a.m.-2:30 p.m. Friday, March 31.

The exhibit will be on display between the Eddy Building and the Education Building or in case of rain, in the North Ballroom of the Lory Student Center.

The event is sponsored by the Colorado State University Health Network, the Associated Students of Colorado State University and Active Minds, a student organization that aims to empower college students to speak openly about mental health issues and suicide.

Send Silence Packing is a traveling exhibit that visits around 20 colleges and universities per year. After an application process, CSU was selected as one of these schools this year.

By Haley Candelario

“We are creating a space for students to come together and be vulnerable by sharing their stories,” wrote Kayla Wong, alumni and co-founder of the Active Minds chapter at CSU, in an email to the Collegian.

Each of the backpacks that will be on display represent the life of a college student that was lost to suicide. Among these backpacks will be photographs of the students, as well as their stories.

Backpacks are donated through the National Active Minds Organization, many are donated by families who lost a student to suicide. CSU Active Minds will also be donating a backpack at the conclusion of the day.

“Our hope is that many CSU students will pass by the visually impactful exhibit and will stop to reflect on what a serious impact suicide has on college students,” wrote Janelle Patrias, the Manager of Mental Health Initiatives and Active

Minds advisor at CSU, in an e-mail to the Collegian.

According to Patrias, students are encouraged to share their own messages of hope, survival or tributes by sharing a note to be included in the backpack.

For more than a decade, the exhibit has “broken through the silence that surrounds mental illness and suicide in a profoundly impactful way,” according to their website.

Students, faculty and staff are encouraged to visit the exhibit during the day on Friday in order to spread the message of suicide awareness and prevention throughout campus.

Student volunteers are needed to help with the event.

Students can volunteer by signing up on the organization’s Google doc.

The suspect responsible for vandalizing the Islamic Center of Fort Collins early Sunday morning was arrested by the Fort Collins Police Department on Monday night.

Joseph Scott Giaquinto, 36, was identified by FCPD as the suspect in the vandalism incident. He was arrested on the following charges: • Criminal Mischief – Class 6 felony • 3rd Degree Trespass – Class 1 petty offense • Bias Motivated Crime – Class 1 misdemeanor Giaquinito is responsible for breaking three of the Islamic Center’s back door glass windows near the prayer room after throwing a rock at the doors. A Bible was found in the prayer room. Police collected the Bible, the rock and a screw driver found outside the Islamic Center as evidence.

Surveillance footage shows Giaquinto arriving at the Islamic Center at 3:57 a.m. and kicking

the back doors. He left for a few minutes, then re-appeared at 4:03 a.m. At 4:09 a.m., Giaquinto threw a rock through the back doors that shattered the glass.

Around 1,000 people attended an event at the Islamic Center on Sunday evening after hearing that the center had been vandalized. A handful of state representatives and city council members attended and spoke at the event, including Police Chief John Hutto.

“We will not tolerate acts of hatred in our community, and I hope this arrest sends that message loud and clear,” Hutto said in a statement after the arrest. “While the building can be repaired, this incident caused deeper hurt that won’t just go away. I urge all of our citizens to continue showing the kind of support and acceptance demonstrated at the Islamic Center rally on Sunday night.”

Giaquinto was booked into the Larimer County Jail, and a booking photo is not available at this time.

Lifting the ban on predator control is animal cruelty Leta Mcwilliams @LetaMcwilliams

Editor’s Note: All opinion section content reflects the views of the individual author only and does not represent a stance taken by the Collegian or its editorial board.

On March 21, 2017, the United States Senate voted 52 to 47 to lift the ban on predator control hunting practices on natural preserved lands and refuges in Alaska. Predator control hunting, specifically in Alaska, is hunting animals such as bears, wolves and coyotes. The vote allows extremely barbaric hunting tactics to be used on these animals, and

“Lifting the ban allows hunters to shoot hibernating bears and their cubs. It allows hunters to kill denning wolves and coyotes along with their pups.

should be illegal due to animal cruelty.

The ban was originally enacted because of the unethical hunting tactics. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service decided that aerial gunning and live trapping were unfair towards the animals.

The ban on predator control was also put into place because the ratio between predator and

prey in Alaska was extremely uneven. There were too many deer, elk, and caribou and not enough predators, so they conserved the predators in the refuges in Alaska, letting the ecosystem balance itself out naturally.

Lifting the ban allows hunters to shoot hibernating bears and their cubs. It allows hunters to kill denning wolves and coyotes along with their pups. It also allows hunters to shoot bears from planes, and for live trapping of these predators, leaving them to suffer for days in neck snares that slowly strangle the animals to death. Not only is this extremely lazy hunting, it is animal cruelty. These hunting practices should not be legal.

I agree that lifting the ban has its benefits. Killing the predators would allow more deer, elk, moose and fish to thrive in the refuges. This would allow hunters to kill more game that they

can eat or give to their families. It also makes the issue a state-controlled problem and no longer a federally controlled problem, which is good because the ban only pertains to Alaska and its preserved lands.

However, allowing practices such as leghold traps and neck snares is extremely cruel towards the animal. Live trapping by using steel-jawed leghold traps can lead to the animal suffering for days. Neck snares entangle the animal and can slowly strangle them to death.

Hunters are also able to lure bears from their dens during hibernation so that they can have a cleaner shot. Meanwhile, bear cubs starve because their mothers have been killed in a time when they need her most. It also allows the hunters to kill wolf and coyote pups and their mothers during denning season. This practice causes baby animals

to suffer before they are able to fend for themselves.

Lifting the ban just because the predator versus prey ratio is normal is not humane. There are ways that hunters could hunt predators without using such unprincipled tactics. The ban on predator control could have been lifted while keeping it illegal to shoot aerially, to practice live trapping and to still preserve the animals during hibernation and denning seasons. The state could issue more hunting licenses when the animals aren’t hibernating and denning, so the hunting is still fair and sportsmanlike.

These hunting tactics are not fair-chase hunting, and they aren’t sportsmanlike hunting.

They are lazy hunting, and more importantly, they are animal cruelty.

Art majors are not guaranteed an easier career path Shay Rego @shayrenee411

Editor’s Note: All opinion section content reflects the views of the individual author only and does not represent a stance taken by the Collegian or its editorial board.

Many people often fall into the misconception that taking on a viable career as a full-blown art major is fun and somewhat easier than other choices. Art covers a broad spectrum, ranging from drawing to digital design to film producing. It goes above and beyond the canvas, but still all fields hold competitive grounds. While turning this passion into a career may seem like a good idea, it should not always be something to spend money on for a degree or use as a primary source of income.

It is incredibly difficult to make a high-level living arrangement for oneself by being an artist in a competitive field where there are already so many existing artists and future competitors.

Having a career in the arts may not steady enough for

years down the road. It’s very comparable to being a writer; a lot of people aspire to publish great works, but not enough can be produced to pay the bills. As an art teacher, the median salary is $55,000. The craft artist makes an average salary of $30,000 and multimedia artists make $60,000 all according to the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics. A photographer makes an average salary of $31,000 a year, a successful novelist still only makes an average of $65,000 a year and a digital designer averages at $40,000. Of course, a blockbuster film producer averages at $111,000 a year, but the years and rigor spent leading up to that point could only dig a hole of debt. Out of 2 million art graduates in the nation, only about 10 percent actually earn their living primarily through the arts. 40 percent of working artists did not even graduate from college in 2016. Therefore, all that money on a professional degree in arts could be considered wasted.

The opposing argument here for art majors is that there does seem to be a lot of different career choices with a fine arts degree: printmaker, museum/ gallery curator, exhibition de-

signer, illustrator, teacher, professional photographer, novelist, music producer, digital designer, producer and lastly being a well-renowned fine artist. Taking a career working in a gallery or being a teacher is a steady career choice with guaranteed income, and therefore a perfect way to utilize a fine arts degree. The extremely talented could also sell their works to local shops, have exhibits in local galleries, enter contests and even get a few commission pieces here and there. Sure, it works out great for the while.

I give credit to anyone chasing their zeal for art and trying to make it into a career, but unless they earn a major breakthrough by creating some fantastic piece, it is unlikely that their career is going to bring in big bucks. That is a large gamble and could take years. Don’t get me wrong, of course I understand happiness in a low paying job is much better than boredom in a high paying job, but this career path may actually be paying so little, plus a hard time finding a job in this field, that the stress may not even be worth an actual degree.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the required household median in order to live in

“Taking a career working in a gallery or being a teacher is a steady career choice with guaranteed income, and therefore a perfect way to utilize a fine arts degree.”

the middle class ranges from $50,000 to $75,000 depending on the state of residency. This median salary will also directly correlate to pay depending on which state. For instance, someone working in Colorado needs around $58,000 to live comfortably in this state. Being an art teacher who only makes around $55,000 a year is going to be scraping by on basic living expenses, not to mention paying off student loans for that art degree, and then there is no money left over to save for luxuries, emergencies or retirement.

What a lot of people seem to misinterpret here is that one needs an art degree to work in

an art field. That is most certainly not the case. In fact, not going to college for art may be the smarter route. Not only is money being saved by not going for a degree, but it is also more free time one can dedicate to enhancing portfolios and going for internships. While not going to college for any form of art may be an advantage, it could also be a disadvantage. Depending on the place of work, some employers may just prefer someone with a degree. It is a complete personal choice, and either choice reaps its own benefits, but overall it is absolutely not necessary to pay for a degree to be successful in this field.

It’s a competitive field for everyone wants to be an artist.

Unfortunately, the chances of making a comfortable career out of it is slimmer than most.

If one still has a strong desire to work in the creative field, my only suggestion is to simply not major in it and save every penny possible. My opinion is only stated to shed light on the practicality of this career path. In the end, people should do what makes them happy. Nothing is impossible.

People of color can absolutely be racist Tianna Zachariah @TZachariah20

Editor’s Note: All opinion section content reflects the views of the individual author only and does not represent a stance taken by the Collegian or its editorial board.

The dispute about whether people of color can be racist is a dispute that is centered around the different definitions of the word ‘racism.’ Those who support the claim that people of color cannot be racist rely on the idea that racism is a system of oppression. People of color do not benefit from this system; therefore, they cannot be racist. Those who support the claim that anyone can be racist rely on the definition that racism in its simplest form is hate. Hate towards a race that is different than your own, and hate that results in behaviors of discrimination based on the belief that your race is better than theirs. Whatever definition you choose for racism, they all have one thing in common: bias.

Each one of us has experiences, families, friends, beliefs and cultures that have shaped the way we think about racism and that have helped influence our biases. These biases are unconscious attitudes we hold toward different races. They appear when deciding who to date, who to be friends with and who to sit next to in class. We see them in our feelings and actions when we walk home alone at night, in our contributions to conversations about racism and even in our personal thoughts that are shared with no one else.

Racism, like any other social issue, is a matter that is extreme-

ly subjective. When people cannot even agree on a definition, it’s more difficult to figure out a way to solve the problem. However, when we take all the definitions and boil them down to the source, the one thing none of us can escape is the underlying biases that have contributed to the system of oppression, the micro aggressions, the stereotypes, and all the hate we have witnessed throughout our lives. In the context of this article, so we are all on the same page, when I argue that even people of color can be racist, I am simply saying that at the heart of racism lies within our personal biases, and even people of color aren’t exempt from having biases that favor certain races.

According to the Office of Diversity and Outreach at the University of California, San Francisco, bias is prejudice in favor of or against one thing, person, or group that is considered unfair.

There are conscious and unconscious biases. Conscious biases are biases that we know we have, while unconscious biases are tendencies that we learn at an early age and that develop as we get older. No bias is ever permanent, and there are steps that can be taken to acknowledge, control and even reverse these biases.

The idea that people of color cannot be racist is an idea that, in the context of institutionalized racism, makes sense. However, when you take away all the details and simplify what it means to be ‘racist,’ nobody is exempt.

Our personal and unconscious biases make it possible for anyone to have beliefs, attitudes and feelings that favor a certain race.

Our biases make it possible for anyone to act out and behave in discriminatory ways. Our biases make it possible for anyone to be racist.

CSU safety Schlager growing into leadership role

By Eric Wolf @eric_wolf5

Few Colorado State Rams on the spring football roster have been in Fort Collins as long as redshirt senior safety Jake Schlager.

Schlager has played a variety of roles since he arrived at CSU — stretching from a special teams star in his first few seasons, to an occasional defensive fill-in in 2015.

But with the loss of safeties Trent Matthews and Kevin Pierre-Louis after the 2015 season, 2016 was set to be Schlager’s time patrolling the back-end of the CSU defense.

Even though he had only one defensive start prior to last season, Schlager helped plug the much needed role in the defensive backfield, ending the year third on the team with 72 tackles, along with one interception and three pass breakups.

And with his previous experience, it did not take long for Schlager to become the leader in the safeties room, and the defensive backfield as a whole.

“Jake is an intelligent guy,” CSU safeties coach and special team coordinator Jamie Bryant said. “He understands the

scheme and all of the adjustments. That’s probably where the most leadership came in — is communicating and making sure we got lined up and we were where we were supposed to be.”

As a communicator, Schlager led a safeties group that saw four different players start over the course of the season. One of those was a true freshman in Jamal Hicks, who made five starts last season, while recording 25 tackles and one interception.

“I thought Jake Schlager did a nice job of growing in his role,” head coach Mike Bobo said. “Really, his leadership consisted of leading his segment of safeties.

He did a nice job with Jamal Hicks -- teaching him how to study, how to prepare and teaching him how to communicate in games.”

Schlager may have been the leader in the safeties room last year, but that was before the departure of cornerback Tyree Simmons and his 30 career starts. Now, Schlager is the unquestioned elder-statesman in the CSU defensive backfield.

With seniority might come a title change, but Schlager makes it clear that not much is different. He was called on to be that leader a season ago, and he will

be this year.

“Everyone realizes that well okay, ‘not only does he start and not only has he been here a while, but he’s also a senior,’ so I think you just kind of earn a little bit

more respect from the people who may not know you as much when you step in that senior position,” Schlager said. “It’s definitely a different feeling, but at the same time it’s not. A leader is

a leader.” “...I kind of felt like I was in that senior leadership position last year, but now that I have this extra year, I feel like I am just see LEADERSHIP on page 9 >>

Inexperienced running backs competing to be part of rushing attack

By Justin Michael @JustinTMichael

There are a variety of questions surrounding the Colorado State football team this spring, but the running game is not one of them.

Head coach Mike Bobo is well known for a strong rushing attack and with three practices in the book this spring, it is clear that running back is once again one of the strongest position groups on the team.

The Rams return an experienced starting duo with junior Izzy Matthews and redshirt senior Dalyn Dawkins. With a combined 1,653 rushing yards and 17 touchdowns between the two, the Rams are poised to have one of the strongest backfields in the Mountain West.

Currently recovering from a torn ACL last November, true freshman Marvin Kinsey is also expected to be part of the rotation. While Kinsey recovers, Rashaad Boddie and Darius May will have an opportunity to compete for snaps as well.

After practicing in shorts and shells for the first few days, Bobo was eager to see how the young backs competed in full pads against the starting the de-

fense.

“The first two days we were in shorts and I was a little concerned about the way Darius (May) was hitting it up in there,”

Bobo said. “I have to look at the film but I saw a guy run with somebody lean today, which was impressive. The more reps he gets, the more comfortable he is going to feel. But at the end of the day, he has played running back his whole life. He has to do what he has always done, which is run the ball.”

Bobo explained how the spring period allows players like Boddie and May to learn the steps and improve their vision in the backfield. According to the third-year head coach, May currently has a firmer grasp on the system, but he likes what he has seen from the two overall.

Much like how Dawkins and Matthews each bring their own running style to the mix, Dawkins with the ability to slash and dash through the defense and Matthews’ raw power; the newest members of the running back stable, Boddie and May, each bring a different pace to the offense.

“Iron strengthens iron,” running back’s coach Bryan Applewhite said of the diversity of

styles within his backfield.

When Dawkins sees Matthews make a play or vice versa, it makes the other want to respond and get in the action too. That attitude is contagious throughout the locker room and makes everyone want to elevate their game to the next level.

According to Applewhite, May’s game parallels Dawkins.

May is quick and shifty through the hole. In fact, May is so quick laterally that he took reps with the defensive backs last spring before redshirting his freshman campaign.

With a year under his belt and back at the position he is most comfortable in, Applewhite has liked what he has seen from the speedy New Orleans-based back, but knows there is still much growth to come.

“He is settling back in, but it still takes some time,” Applewhite said. “(Last year) He was on the scout team running the opposing offense. So this is really his third day back into the offense. Today I think he (may see RUNNING on page 9 >>

SPORTS FOR DUMMIES

The football takeover: What happened to America’s Pastime?

Sports dummies, I have a confession to make.

While I am mostly a confused and separated bystander to the world of sporting, there is one area in which I find myself intrigued. I have a soft spot in my heart for one sport and one team. The sport is baseball and the team is the Seattle Mariners.

It is especially noticeable now that the baseball season is finally starting.

Do not get me wrong, I still watch baseball games and wonder at the fanfare. I still see sal-

aries and marvel at the excesses.

But I grew up watching the Mariners and it’s the one sports game I can watch and enjoy unironically.

I have watched it with my grandparents, who talk often about how back in their day, baseball was the sport people loved to watch. Now it is football.

It makes me wonder – what happened to baseball, the obviously superior sport, and when did football take over in popularity?

The 2016 Super Bowl had about 167 million unique viewers in the United States. The World Series finale in 2016, however, had 75 million viewers at its most-watched point, averaging around 40 million. It certainly seems like baseball is losing the popularity contest, and yet baseball is still called America’s

Pastime.

Football began its takeover in the 1960s, around the time television was becoming popular. Simply put, football marketed itself better than baseball.

The NFL played their cards well and have huge negotiating power over the networks. They advertise the show – the drama, the aggression, the performances.

This is something so ubiquitous that most people do not even notice how often these messages are shoved in our faces. The NFL does a phenomenal job marketing itself. The MLB did not do the same.

The nature of football itself appeals to people more and more. When I ask people who love sports what they think about baseball, the predominant response I get it “It’s really slow and boring.” American attention

>> LEADERSHIP from page 8 playing on borrowed time. It’s a great feeling to know that and just be able to continue to lead and accept that leadership position as a senior,” Schlager said.

Schlager’s “borrowed time,” comes from his 2014 season, when he received a medical redshirt after only appearing in four games before an ankle injury ended his season.

In his CSU career, Schlager

has appeared in 41 games, the majority of those coming primarily in that special teams role.

Schlager has been at the school five years. He has spent the time playing with guys like Matthews, Simmons, Pierre-Louis and DeAndre Elliott.

He always felt he had the experience to match those types of players. Now, he has a full year as a starter in the bag, and he is ready to see where that takes him

this season.

“Having that starting (season) underneath my belt at the safety position, it just adds to a whole other level of experience,” Schlager said. “People respect that you are not a firstyear starter anymore. You are a vet you and have been in this position.”

>> RUNNING from page 8 have) felt a lot more comfortable with what we are doing.”

Boddie is much more of a bruiser. A guy that will run straight through the defender instead of around him, so playing in full pads is much more conducive to his tough style of play.

“I love seeing the team in pads,” Applewhite said. “You re-

ally get to see how physical a kid is willing to play when you put the pads on.”

With 12 practices remaining in the spring period, the coaching staff will continue to get looks at these developing backs and how they progress through the system.

spans are decreasing all the time.

According to Time Magazine, the average human attention span is less than 8 seconds, meaning humans have to refocus their brains every 8 seconds.

That would make it easier to pay attention to a game like football, where the action starts and stops every few seconds. It also helps explain this shift toward a more aggressive, action-packed game, and toward one with much less to keep track of.

It takes much more work to keep up with baseball. Football teams play 16 games each during their season, while baseball teams play an amazing 162 games during their season. At the risk of angering some football fans, I think it is safe to say that baseball fans are more committed to the sport. It is much harder to follow 10 times as many games.

Football attendance at games is much higher. So, though the NFL averages 65,000 attendees per game and MLB averages 30,000, in terms of overall season attendance that means the NFL sees approximately 1,040,000 fans and the MLB sees 4,860,000.

Who knows if football would still see such high attendance levels if they also played 162 games.

While it may be an unpopular opinion, I conclude that football is popular because of a shifting cultural paradigm toward the fast and the action-packed with less emphasis on details and follow-through. It is so much easier to be a football fan, and maybe that is one of the reasons baseball has begun to fall by the wayside, even though it is obviously the better sport.

Dance exhibition brings hip-hop culture to CSU

By Matthew Smith @latvatalo

Fort Collins is not the place one would think of as being home to a vibrant hip-hop dance community. But with Sunday night’s “Xpression!” dance exhibition at Colorado State University’s Lory Student Center, it appears there will be many similar events in the future.

“Xpression!” brought together dancers, singers and songwriters from Fort Collins and beyond for an explosive night of creative hip-hop expression. Organizer Kent Washington said its purpose is to give a voice to a once nearly voiceless community. “’Xpression!’ was created to provide a platform for hip-hop dance and culture,” Washington said. “There is no other art form that can express more than dance.”

The exhibition gathered one

truly impressive list of performers. Crews present at “Xpression!” included Colorado-based COhe and the award-winning HYPE 303.

Special guest MPACT, a B-Boy from the world famous KINJAZ crew, flew out all the way from Los Angles, California to teach a workshop at the University Center of the Arts and held a live Q&A session.

To kick off the night was the master of ceremonies Alex Milewski, aka WhiteBoi, member of the Boulder dance collective Block 1750. WhiteBoi pumped up the intimate crowd at the front of the stage, leading them into a chant of the four elements of hip-hop: “peace, love, unity and having fun.”

These four value sum up what “Xpression!” was all about: creative expression without limits. Every performer, whether they were individuals or groups,

added their own unique style and flavor.

Singer-songwriter Shyann Lee presented a set of highly dynamic songs showcasing her incredible vocal abilities, topped off with the sensual original track “I Don’t Want You To Go.” Lee was followed by the mysterious solo dancer Kwaz, who chose to wear a full mask as to not let his face distract from his art. Other groups such as Side

by Side and The Nasty Kidz used musical breaks and clever editing to add a narrative into their dance routines. DJ Zenas masterfully provided music from stage left.

Throughout “Xpression!,” audience members danced and cheered with the music, creating an active and free atmosphere of judgement-free creative flow.

After the intermission, MPACT emerged onto the stage and presented a short but stun-

“Expression is your ability to create yourself and show the world who that person is inside and out.”

MPACT B-BOY FROM LOS ANGLES

ning presentation of his championship break dancing skills before sitting down with WhiteBoi for a live interview.

“Expression is your ability to create yourself and show the world who that person is inside and out,” MPACT said.

To MPACT, hip-hop became the medium through which he could truly express himself.

What began as an interest in the break dancing skills of his older cousin became a healthy obsession in college and then a profes-

sional career.

At the night’s conclusion, all the performers formed a semicircle on stage and took turns free-styling to DJ Zenas’ curated beats.

While “Xpression!” represented one of Fort Collins’ largest celebrations of hip-hop culture, there was much to be desired. For next year’s edition, Washington says it can only go “bigger and better.”

“MPACT had an amazing message,” Washington said. “I wish a lot more people heard that message.”

Until next year, hip-hop fans can attend Franchesca Ramsey’s talk at the LSC theater on March 30. Ramsey is the host of MTV’s YouTube show “Decoded,” a breakout hit with over 29 million cumulative views.

CSU Rodeo Team to host Skyline Stampede Rodeo

By Emma Turner @EmmaTurner1228

From April 7 to April 9, the Colorado State University rodeo team will host the 67th Annual Skyline Stampede Rodeo at B.W. Pickett Arena in the CSU equine center. This is just one in a series of rodeos for the spring semester in which CSU Club Rodeo Team members will compete.

The team is one of the oldest collegiate rodeo clubs in the nation.

“Our rodeo is an event that carries on the tradition and perpetuates the legacy of the oldest college rodeo in the country,” said Kristen Schmidt, a third-year agriculture business and animal science dual major.

Members compete through National Intercollegiate Rodeo Association, which is divided up into 11 regions. They can compete in bull riding, saddle broncs, bareback riding, barrel racing, team roping, calve roping, breakaway roping, steer wrestling and goat tying.

“We work all year long planning for this event and it is so much fun,” said Kristen Grave, the club’s president. “We host over 300 competitors from 13 different schools in the Central Rocky Mountain Region over the course of three days.”

While CSU’s collegiate ro-

deo club has been around since the 1940s, rodeo itself dates back much further in American History. Rodeo events have evolved around real ranching tasks performed by cowboys in the early American West.

Jobs like roping and sorting cattle, and training horses morphed into wild west shows, where people could come and watch cowboys take on more and more difficult variations of these tasks. Wild west shows appeared all over at the time, so we still do not know exactly when the first rodeo occurred.

However, many of the rules and events we know today were established at the Fourth of July rodeo in Prescott, Arizona in 1888. Now, the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association in conjunction with the Women’s Pro-Rodeo Association make up the most prominent circuit for contestants to compete in. The National Finals Rodeo is held each year in December in Las Vegas, Nevada.

While most events are performed by an individual competitor and their horse, many club members talk about the camaraderie they feel for the team.

“The CSU rodeo team is so supportive and is basically family to me,” said Lake Mehalic, a

first-year equine science major and barrel racer. “All of my closest college friends have come from the team, and I love them so much. The team is just so genuine and really loves the sport of rodeo.”

This weekend the club will host its spring barrel race. Barrel racing is a traditionally female-dominated event in which riders must run their horses in a cloverleaf pattern around three barrels a fast as possible, hope-

fully without knocking any over.

This takes skill and agility on the part of both rider and horse. The free event will be held April 1 at the B.W. Pickett Arena.

FORT COLLINS LIFE

Winter Farmer’s Market give locals taste of spring

By Sarah Ehrlich @SarahEhrlich96

The Opera Galleria in downtown Fort Collins was transformed into a meeting place for lovers of food and crafts at the Winter Farmers’ Market by NoCo Food.

Vendors from Fort Collins and other areas of Colorado came together to sell an array of “late season” produce, grass-fed meats, eggs, sauces and jams, baked goods, drinks and many other specialties. Live music and face painting makes this farmers’ market a perfect way to spend the day with family and friends.

“We try to provide an outlet for our farmers, food producers and crafters to get out into the general public and also allow the community access to local food and locally produced items,” said market manager Debi Fowler.

“We now have enough vendors to be able to put on this market 12 to 15 times a year.”

Since the start of the Winter Farmers’ Market 10 years ago it has grown with more and more vendors each year, with each vendor having a unique story.

Rick Hicks and his wife Denise own By My Mother’s Side, selling over 40 different flavors of jams, marmalades, fruit butters and candies at food markets from Fort Collins to Estes Park.

The couple does this as a hobby and a way to relax.

Hicks’s wife was diagnosed with cancer and uses cooking to unwind.

“She loves cooking and being in the kitchen, so this is her therapy,” Hicks said. “Anything she makes, I’ll go out and sell.”

Hicks also mentioned ingredients for some of their jams come from local businesses and vendors he has met at markets, and seems to really benefit from the collaboration of local people.

Besides fresh and tasty foods sold at the Winter Farmers’ Market, people can buy an array of alcoholic and fermented beverages.

One such vendor, Decadent Saint, offers concentrated sangria that customers can dilute to make up to five bottles of great tasting wine. David Sendros of Decadent Saint is from Barcelona, Spain and currently lives in Boulder with his girlfriend.

Though he misses home every day, he enjoys his time working in the winery business in Colorado.

“At Decadent Saint, we are pioneers of making four flavors of 20 percent alcohol real fruit

concentrate, one for each meal,” Sendros says. “Our founder, Michael, actually made this concentrate by accident, but (it) has since outnumbered wine sales, so we went along with it.”

Another unique beverage vendor is called Bootleg Boocha, who prides themselves on being the only Colorado kombucha brewery that ferment in premium oak barrels. Three ingredients: Yerba Mate Tea, reverse osmosis water and evaporated cane juice come together to create a health drink that they say could help your liver expel toxins, and give you a natural energy boost.

Winter Farmer’s Market: When: Saturdays 9 a.m. – 1 p.m. until April 8 Where: Opera Galleria located at 123 N. College Ave.

Bootleg Boocha’s humble beginning was in business partner Josh Johnson’s house where he came up with ingredients and brewed it himself. Co-owner Ben Governale suggested the two start brewing in oak barrels.

The company works closely with organizations such as Save the Buzz to help save and conserve bees, as they play an important role in food production.

“I saw the passion Josh had with brewing and decided to invest a little money into him,” Governale said. “I helped grow the business and then eventually a little became a lot, and we became partners and I fell in love with the process too.”

Bootleg Boocha is on tap at many local stops such as the Downtown Artery and the Alleycat cafe.

“We only make original kombucha,” Johnson said. “We want this drink to be a fun game ... that tastes great without adding anything extra to it.”

The Winter Farmers’ Market can be a great way to spend an afternoon because of the diversity of vendors since there is something to help everyone appreciate the artistry of local handcrafts and agriculture.

Upcoming dates are available at fortcollinsfarmersmarkets.com Sarah Ehrlich can be reached at entertainment@collegian.com.

COLLEGE

You’ve been napping all wrong, health experts say ByMQ Borocz @MQBorocz22

An average day for many is a whirlwind of things: classes, assignments, exams, working out, hanging out with friends, meetings, events … it all can leave anyone feeling drowsy, unable to think or down.

The answer could be a nap.

Whether one is getting enough sleep or not, napping can boost alertness as well as make up for sleep loss, according to Janelle Patrias, manager of mental health initiatives at the Colorado State University Health Network.

Patrias said that taking a nap can be restorative and rejuvenating, but only if you do it right.

“You have to be really careful,” Patrias said. “If you are napping it’s actually best to nap around the same time every day and to not let it keep you up later.”

Napping for too long during the day or too late in the day can disrupt the brain’s internal sleep clock, Patrias said. The internal sleep clock, known as circadian rhythms, is a 24-hour cycle of mental and physical changes that includes wakefulness and sleepiness. If circadian rhythms are off balance, that can lead to various physical and mental health problems as well as sleep

deprivation, according to the National Sleep Foundation.

Patrias said that for many, mid-afternoon may be a prime time for a nap because that is when many feel a dip into sleepiness as part of their circadian rhythm. One option is a power nap, which lasts 10 to 20 minutes.

“I would encourage (people) to start with those short little power naps and see if that gives you that boost of alertness you’re looking for,” Patrias said.

Many turn to caffeine for a boost of alertness. A power nap, according to the National Sleep Foundation, can also improve mood and performance. In an article by ABC News, Sara Mednick, sleep expert at the University of California, San Diego, said that naps help with memory processing, alertness and learning new skills.

Longer naps can help make up for lost sleep, according to Patrias, and taking a nap for 90 minutes, which is a complete sleep cycle, is ideal. Napping for more than 30 minutes, but less than 90 minutes will probably cause grogginess after waking up, said Patrias. This is because REM sleep, the deepest form of sleep, usually occurs after 30 minutes and lasts until the end of the sleep cycle.

Sleep is essential to mental, physical and emotional health.

A lack of sleep inhibits learning and problem-solving skills, the ability to control emotions and behaviors, attentiveness and can lead to illnesses, according to the United States National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute.

Patrias stressed the importance of sleep hygiene, which are practices that are necessary to have a good night of sleep.

“I think one of the biggest (sleep hygiene practices) that we don’t give enough value to is to take a break from our screens prior to bed,” Patrias said. “If you’re on your phone or your lap-

top right until bedtime … it’s just really stimulating and it’s going to really impede your ability to fall asleep.”

Patrias suggested that except for sex, people should primarily only sleep in their beds and conduct other activities elsewhere.

Other sleep hygiene practices include avoiding caffeine or nicotine close to bed time, establishing a relaxing bedtime routine and falling asleep and waking up around the same time every day, according to the National Sleep Foundation.

Patrias encouraged CSU stu-

dents to come to the CSU Hartshorn Health Center if they are struggling with sleeping healthily.

“If students are really struggling and feel like their sleep challenges are beyond the typical realm of college students not getting enough sleep, I think it would be an appropriate thing for them to go see someone at the health center,” Patrias said. “We have a lot of skilled positions to improve sleep and really change people’s habits.”

MOVIES & TV

Marvel’s ‘Iron Fist’ fails to pack a punch

By Nate Day @NateMDay

Since the 2015 release of “Daredevil,” Marvel and Netflix have enjoyed a strong and illustrious relationship. The duo has provided Marvel’s cinematic universe with several critically acclaimed entries, but that trend took a hit with the newest addition, “Iron Fist.” When the show was initially released, it was almost unanimously raked over the coals by critics, and for good reasons.

“Iron Fist” exemplifies the same problems that have plagued Marvel’s other Netflix properties; the show was far too slow paced and ended in an anticlimactic and been-theredone-that battle with the series’ big bad antagonist. However, “Iron Fist” was unique in the additional problems it presented.

First and foremost, Finn Jones, who plays the titular Iron Fist is a total dud. His iteration of Danny Rand was intolerable and entirely different from what a character in his position should be. This is not to say he was unpredictable, it is to say his performance did not have much

logic. Jones was stiff and corny, obviously stumped by how to best deliver a line.

Jones also posed another large problem for the show: cultural misappropriation.

The role obviously should have been played by an actor of Asian descent, as Danny practicing and preaching strict Kung Fu teachings comes across as spoiled frat bro feigning interest in another culture. The character, created to answer the growing interest in Kung Fu in the 1970s, is supposed to be the best martial artist in the world and a total outsider to the mystical Asian culture that trained him. It was wrong for the character to be white in the 1970s, and it is wrong now.

Marvel has done some great work casting people of color in roles originated by white characters, it is a shame they did not take that chance here.

As if those issues were not enough, the writing on the show was awful. Dialogue often left me rolling my eyes and the convenient manner in how plot details fell together made the show boring. Every twist was visible from a mile away, and

the way they adopted and redesigned some of the characters we have met before was almost shameful.

Despite the terrible writing and an even worse lead actor, the show is produced with Marvel’s standard high quality, masking a lot of the show’s mistakes. The editing makes it this close to making it an OK production. The fight scenes are well put together, and Jessica Henwick provides Marvel with another strong woman of color to add to their roster, but that is not enough to turn a blind eye to the massive mistakes the show makes. not.

Should you watch it? Probably

“Iron Fist” was supposed to be so much more than it was.

With Netflix’s crossover series “The Defenders” coming up shortly, viewers needed a stronger launching pad, but we will take what we can get.

Ultimately, the show, its lead and its writers were a big letdown, but here is to hoping that future seasons—if there are any—can right those wrongs.

Dawes appears on latest episode of ‘Live from the Great Room’

By Jonny Rhein @jonnyrhein

Andrew Bird cannot ever seem to sit still. When the violinist gets a break from touring or recording full length albums, he is looking for something fresh and new to keep himself occupied. In between his 2012 album “Break It Yourself” and his latest album “Are You Serious,” Bird recorded three extended plays, one in which he traveled to Coyote Gulch in the Utah desert and recorded in a canyon to produce an authentic, natural sound. He wrote the score for the independent film “Norman” and FX’s show “Baskets.” He appeared alongside Paul Simon and Chris Thile last year on the variety show “A Prairie Home Companion.” The list could go on.

His latest project is “Live from the Great Room.” The series started in July of last year.

Every week or so, Bird invites some of the world’s most acclaimed musicians into his home to play a few songs in his high-ceiling living room to discuss music. There is no present audience, but it is aired live on Facebook and is archived on his page for anyone who could not tune in to the live session.

Some of his past guests include Academy Award winner and star of Adult Swim’s “Check

It Out! with Dr. Steve Brule” John C. Reilly, rock ‘n’ roll legend Jackson Browne and the eccentric Fiona Apple. Genres range from jazz with Esperanza Spalding to classical with Punch Brothers’ Chris Thile to folk with My Morning Jacket’s Jim James.

The latest guests to appear on “Live from the Great Room” are brothers Taylor and Griffin Goldsmith of the folk-rock band Dawes.

It is about time Dawes and Bird got together to play music.

The timing is understandable, given that guitarist Blake Mills produced Dawes’ album “We’re All Gonna Die” in 2016 and played lead guitar on Bird’s “Are You Serious” in the same year. Regardless, any fan of Dawes would likely love Bird and vice versa.

With the limitations of a violin, an acoustic guitar and various shakers, snares and tambourines, the whole performance is stripped to the essentials. The set includes Dawes’ “Right on Time,” “Roll with the Punches,” Bird’s “Puma,” “The Naming of Things” and a cover of “The Way I Feel Inside” by The Zombies.

Half of the set is music; the other half is an intimate discussion of music. Bird took 12 years to clear up the meaning behind the song “The Naming of Things” from his 2005 album “The Mysterious Production of Eggs.” He

finally tells the story of the memorable and out-there line “In memory of garbage can.” They dig deep into the subjects of songwriting, recording and the hardships of playing three-hour long shows.

Since these are live sessions, there is no way of going back to edit. Bird has said in interviews that his live shows are not successful unless something goes wrong. It keeps things real and interesting. During his own song “Puma,” Bird misses the transition to the outro. He stops, laughs at himself, goes back and corrects his mistake.

Should you watch it? Yes. This session with Dawes has been one of the best of the entire series. Nothing quite compares to the Goldsmith brothers’ harmonies sung over Bird’s carefully crafted songs. Violin is almost non-existent on every Dawes album. Chances are you will never be able to hear Dawes songs in this way unless you watch this performance. The set list is near perfect and ends beautifully with Bird’s signature violin looping and whistling.

New episodes begin again in May. Jonny Rhein can be reached at entertainment@collegian.com.

Jenny Hval finds vitality, musicality in blood

By Greg Kot

Chicago Tribune

The title of Jenny Hval’s latest album, “Blood Bitch” (Sacred Bones), to some fans might evoke the Norwegian singer’s past in a goth-metal band, or perhaps signal a Diamanda Galas-like plunge into the deepest, darkest recesses of the human soul.

It bears elements of both possibilities, but it’s notable primarily for the way it weaves its evocative imagery and music into a more textured, contemplative landscape that at times verges on melodic pop music.

The layered concept album links Hval’s love of horror movies _ vampire tales in particular _ with the mundane rituals and intimate revelations of her last tour.

“It wasn’t anything that happened in particular on that tour _ it had more to do with the people I was with, a bigger group than usual,” she says. “Two years ago after the ‘Apocalypse, girl’ release (her 2015 album), I was touring with three or four women, and the amazing conversations we had worked their way into the music. It was very collaborative on that tour, and it liberated me when writing this album.”

Hval never saw herself as musician, though she plays multiple instruments and writes and co-produces her albums. Instead, she sees music more as an extension of life experience, an art project akin to her interests in film, performance and literature (she has published a novel and numerous articles). Her half-dozen solo albums, she says, are an “extension of what my life was like while making them. I always had a secret desire to do music, but I didn’t see myself as doing it professionally. I love doing it, but I never expect it to continue. I feel that what I do is more interesting to me if I see it as part of a bigger picture, a part of studying the world, a need to express something rather than a technical education in being a musician or this huge desire to be a performing musician on

stage.”

It’s an ever-evolving approach that rarely hews to formulas. She cautions that her stint with metal band Shellyz Raven in the ‘90s and her horror-movie fandom shouldn’t necessarily be equated with loud or violent music. Despite its evocative title, “Blood Bitch” is never so easily pigeonholed.

“I was reminded as I was watching all these horror films that they often have a lot of beautiful melodic music,” she says.

“There are so many delicate, sexual elements. So much is everyday life. You can also say that about Diamanda Galas music _ it has delicate elements with synths, drums, spoken word, whispering.

You can forget that in this tabloid era of having to strain to express everything. We become very set in this most potent memory of a genre, or most extreme parts of a film. In talking about my music and black metal, it can make perfect sense even if the music is widely different than how those things are generally perceived.

It’s not that simple. A press release (describing an album) always has an element of a joke. You can describe the music, but it can mean a thousand different things depending on who you ask. I had a lot of fun presenting what the album was going to be, but then that will be subject to countless interpretations.”

The notion of blood can be both disturbing and mundane _ an everyday presence in some people’s lives _ a tension that she aimed to explore more fully in the album. It stands in contrast to the Hollywood film industry that, she says, “makes violence beautiful _ in a lot of horror films, the gore is made very aesthetic, violent but also very unreal.

What I wanted to do in the songs is follow the blood, instead of the mythology and the symbolism.

Blood in itself can be seen as so many flowing things. You don’t see it as giving death or life. It has a musicality to it. I didn’t want to do the same thing as the mainstream movie industry. I tried

to be in a different space, more psychedelic, hallucinatory. Maybe vampires are just hallucinating. It must be boring to live that long. “ In the same way that a tour can feel endless.

“I don’t like touring very much,” she says. “I like traveling, and I always enjoy the playing.

But the repetition, the packing of your suitcase every day after sleeping not nearly enough and getting in the same car, it’s really draining. You are so far removed from the world, and the world you should care about, and not being with your community and participating in society. It’s depressing, but you get close to people you tour with. You find yourself together in this fragile space, and that fragility creates a closeness. You show people things, your vampire personalties, the stuff you don’t want to show most people back home. A vampire can be an aging female musician on tour. When you tour for a month, you can see very quickly how this could be like an unwanted eternal existence. It’s like you create your own world with a few people.”

Now that she’s touring again, this time behind “Blood Bitch,” Hval says the music is being transformed yet again. The songs were conceived as a reflection of a particular experience filtered through the lens of horror films and traveling at close quarters.

Now the images of blood and vampires have taken on a new context.

“I’ve changed a lot now,” she says. “Last year was terrible politically for the world, and it felt different to be playing these shows about blood and vampires.

It became more about politics and the possibility of a different, more hidden existence that can avoid surveillance, social control. These songs now represent resistance, the lives that are invisible to the mainstream. And blood can be transformed into tears.”
