EXTRA THOUGHTS: COVER, AUG. 1: “ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE”
FINGERS CROSSED I just read your article and it is awesome! It is totally obvious now to any half-conscious human being that we live in a police state. Thank you for such an incisive, historical and still very personal account of one of the most blatant examples of our country’s current fascist trend. When will your (first?) book be coming out? Keep up the good work young man—you and all the many many others like you are the voice of the future. Thank you.

TURN IT AROUND Great piece for the Santa Fe Reporter. Yes, Trump and his extreme corporate right wing cadre are the supreme enemy of the people. I signed up for Trump’s impeachment the day he got into office. Thanks for getting arrested in DC, the district of criminals. America needs a 180-degree turnaround if it is going to survive the 21st century, which it may not.

INTERNATIONAL FOLK ART MARKET
SPONSORSHIP, OR WORSE? I watched my friend travel 10,000 miles to exhibit at Folk Art Market. Celebrating and economically boosting artisans around the world is the supposed mission of IFAM. Per application, Americans are prohibited from exhibiting, so how about a triple-wide booth for Donna Karan? Yes, placed in the prominent direct flow of market traffic, while some artists shared booths. Let’s call it “paying homage” to world cultures. Let’s call it “inspiration.” ... I believe that was originally called cultural theft or euphemistically, “appropriation.” Next year, IFAM, if you want to go full on-corporate, hire some Apple store employees to be be roving cashiers. Have Donna Karan pay the merchant credit card fees instead of the artists. Add a massage therapist session for jetlagged artists. Put that on Donna Karan’s tab. On the heels of the most successful market to date, IFAM, revisit your mission statement.

rom the look of things, there’s a lot of residential construction happening in Santa Fe. Building permits for homes have jumped 43 percent, with 250 permits issued for new housing during the first seven months of 2018, according to city records. Seeking to get a better picture of the scope of both the problem and potential solutions, Santa Fe has produced a map of projects that are either under construction or in the final phases of approval before being built. Twenty-three different projects dot the city, including singlefamily developments and multifamily complexes. “It’s good for the community because we’ve been hearing about all these things in the pipeline, but no one has ever seen the list and certainly no one’s ever seen a map,” says Kim Shanahan of the Santa Fe Area Home Builders Association. Mayor Alan Webber found himself pondering the same thing, according to a city spokesman, and asked that Santa Fe’s Land Use Department map out everything that was either shovel-ready or close to it. The results are at turns impressive and discouraging. The map, labeled with the four City Council districts, shows a divide in Santa Fe when it comes to rental housing, often referred to as multifamily development. “Most of it is trending toward the south and west sides of Santa Fe. And the equity notion that multifamily building can happen in all districts is not really playing itself out,” Shanahan tells SFR. “That’s kind of a political hot potato,” he offers, adding that there is a particular urgency for multifamily development. Project management company JenkinsGavin put a fine point on that in the application for a 120-unit apartment project off Agua Fría between Siler Road and Frenchy’s Field. The company says in its market analysis that “since 1993, only 176 market rate apartment units have been constructed in Santa Fe. However, Santa Fe’s population has increased by 14,000 people, with an associated addition of 13,000 jobs.”
The application letter goes on to estimate that more than 30,000 people work in Santa Fe, but don’t live here. The annual cost to the city’s bank accounts, the company says, is a whopping $300 million. Santa Fe is missing out on a major economic driver. “It is critical to Santa Fe’s economy and quality of life to provide quality rental housing in adequate supply to meet local demand,” Jennifer Jenkins and architect Colleen Gavin write. The permit curve is trending upward since a big dip after 2008, says Daniel Werwath, a development consultant and head of the New Mexico Inter-Faith Housing Corporation. But a jump in building permits isn’t in itself a solution to the problem. “We haven’t rebounded to the housing production that we had pre-recession, and we really haven’t had the building to keep up with the growth in population,” he tells SFR. As much of a disaster as the recession was, he says Santa Fe builders went into it with a head of steam. “We did overbuild. We had supply that we had to get rid of before we started building [again],” Werwath explains. But by the time the sluggish market cleared excess supply, the recession had settled in and no one was building—except the wealthy. Builders noticed. “A lot of those folks retreated into the high-end home market and it’s going to take a lot to coax them out of it,” he says. He points out enthusiastically that there are older permits pulled before the recession that are just now becoming economically viable. That construction wouldn’t necessarily be reflected in the new permit numbers or, potentially, even on the new city-made map. City spokesman Matt Ross says the mayor would like to see more data-based mapping that can more easily and visually show the impact of Santa Fe’s housing policies. Werwath is completely on board
CITY OF SANTA FE
City maps out residential construction as building permits jump
would pay roughly $130,000 to keep its 120 apartments at market rate and more profitable for the developer, Blue Buffalo. It will certainly help ease the housing crunch overall, but it won’t build units within reach of those with lower income. Shanahan sees trouble on the horizon, too. The fee-in-lieu ordinance was a trial. It ends on the last day of 2019. He points to the 188-home Broadstone Rodeo apartment project recently underway. “It took them 24 months to go from the first application until they were able to break ground,” he says. Just 17 months remain until the program could be shuttered. “So the sunset will put a chill on any other developers that are coming forward.”

A Map of the Problem
with that approach. Sometimes, the solutions that sound the best don’t deliver. Much of the credit for the uptick in multifamily apartment permits this year—13, as opposed to zero in the same period in 2017—has been credited to a financial escape hatch for builders that allows them to pay a fee in lieu of building and renting 15 percent of their apartments for affordable housing. It’s spurred market-rate building, but that’s it. “The fee-in-lieu-of program for rentals established under the Gonzales administration has not resulted in more affordable units,” Shanahan says. Werwath goes a step further. He says the program hasn’t resulted in the construction of a single affordable apartment since it went into effect in early 2016. For example, the project on Agua Fría

“
ith a little luck and repose from the afternoon rain, the festival will be the beginning of a musical renaissance in New Mexico.” Those words were printed in these pages back in August 2007, right before the Santa Fe Muzik Fest took over the long-defunct Santa Fe Downs race track off I-25. The Wu Tang Clan and Public Enemy, among others, headlined the weekend show. Needless to say, we were wrong; the Muzik Fest was a flop. It would be a stretch to say that the renaissance finally appeared this past weekend at Meow Wolf’s Taos Vortex music festival in, uh, Taos. But the collection of acts that gathered, including The Flaming Lips, Washed Out and Thievery Corporation, represented a greater concentration of hip music in one place than Northern New Mexico has seen in a long time. Fitting, too, that the event encouraged merriment and debauchery near the graves of Kit Carson, the US Army Officer bitterly remembered by Navajo people, and other excessively wealthy colonizers buried at his namesake park just a few blocks up from the Taos Plaza.
“Festival season” has grown into a multi million-dollar industry, and its trappings were visible in Taos for much of the weekend, for better or worse: A late-night, bass-heavy dance tent to cap off an evening of psychedelic headliners and West Coast chillwave; easy-to-find drugs and overpriced beer; and the antiegalitarian spirit implied by cordonedoff sections (VIP versus glamping versus camping) for higher-paying patrons. Meow Wolf’s Vince Kadlubek saw the Vortex as smaller and “more manageable” than the failed Muzik Fest of 2007. He also said it was geared for an older crowd by promoting Taos-area recreation like llama-riding and river rafting. “It’s not the all-day-music type thing,” Kadlubek told SFR last Thursday. “We want people out in Taos, to enjoy the city and nature.”
According to Neal Copperman, the executive director of AMP Concerts, the weekend came together only about four months ago, when AMP approached Meow Wolf about putting together a double headliner with Thievery Corporation and The Flaming Lips. With a brand that lends itself to the trippy themes of the Vortex, Meow Wolf took the lead with promotion, but Copperman says both companies equally shared event costs. Kadlubek told SFR he would have been happy with 3,500 people showing up. AMP Concerts’ Santa Fe director Jamie Lenfestey says over 5,000 people attended some part of the weekend at the 19-acre park, but neither organization would say how many tickets sold. A field of food vendors across from the main stage included Santa Fe-based Jambo Café and Vadito-based J&J’s

Lunchbox, which sold affordable dishes like chili dogs and Frito pie. Tim Sanchez, an owner of J&J’s, said vendors might have taken a financial hit due to low turnout. “They told us about 5,000 people would show up, and for about 5,000 people [the vendors] probably would have done okay—but it seemed a little less than what we are used to,” said Sanchez, adding, “it was a great event, and we had a lot of fun meeting a lot of cool people.” In addition to the cityfolk of New Mexico, Meow Wolf had hoped to attract people from Denver and southern Colorado, as well as the Flagstaff area in Arizona and El Paso in Texas, according to Kadlubek. Lenfestey says that 40 percent of attendees were from outside New Mexico. Standing near the main stage after Washed Out’s set on Saturday night, Denverite couple Olivia Leigh and Patrick Anderson told SFR they first visited the Meow Wolf installation in Santa Fe two years ago and were “totally blown away.” The two are now investors in the company’s upcoming installation in Denver. “The main reason why we decided to come here, we saw it was Meow Wolf and Taos, we’ve never been to Taos and we figured it’d be great,” said Anderson, who wore a massive wig of spiked blonde hair resembling a Super Saiyan. The weekend wasn’t without its awkward moments, like when Lenfestey walked onto the main stage to hype the crowd as a clutch of Taos cops and private security surrounded a young woman who had collapsed onto the ground. And the turnout may not spark a long-delayed music festival renaissance for the state. The Vortex did establish a framework for future fests in New Mexico, though, and it seems safe to say that if they try it again, some will come.

THE RALPH T COE CENTER FOR THE ARTS LAYERS ON INDIGENOUS PRINT COLLABORATION BY ALICIA INEZ GUZMÁN a u t h o r @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
Before I leave his studio, artist Jason Garcia (Santa Clara Pueblo Tewa) hands me a CD he burned, Song for My Muse: Vol. 1. One of the tracks is “You’re Mine,” a slow, two-steppin’ cover of the Ritchie Valens’ hit recorded by Los Lobos for the movie La Bamba. I’ve known the song since I was a kid—back when I thought Lou Diamond Phillips was actually Valens himself—and I sang along, humming to the twangy guitar chords, awash in a nameless nostalgia. Garcia (known also by his Tewa name, Okuu Pin or Turtle Mountain) is one of six artists participating in IMPRINT, an exhibition-cum-public art and social media blitz helmed by the Ralph T Coe Center for the Arts that opens Tuesday Aug. 14. Founded in 2012 by Coe, a collector and art historian, the center holds nearly 2 ,000 objects in its collection and has proven to be a curatorial and creative laboratory and vanguard in commissioning these six Indigenous artists. They produced the work together and individually and helped decide at which venues it would be appear. Most of the artists were at the table (virtually or in person) during the earliest stages of conception, even when the title had yet to be set; uncertainty was present throughout, but the experimentalism is now IMPRINT’s signature. Garcia’s album is just one piece of ephemera he plans to put into one of two repurposed newspaper boxes to be strategically placed and re-placed all over Santa Fe and elsewhere as part of the show. Other artists plan to contribute items as well, and any passersby can simply take whatever they find inside, including Song for My Muse, which Garcia has placed in a custom sleeve, screen printed in red ink and signed. I wound up with edition 10/10; the CD and the print are germane

companions, analog forms sharing the material qualities of inscribed media. And the impression the song left lingers on like an afterimage, even well into this writing. According to the Coe’s press release, “To imprint is to forge a connection that leaves a lasting mark.” Mark-making can be the actual practice of putting ink to paper, multiplying one form into many, or the far more elusive act of impressing a certain worldview through art onto viewers. From the conceptual to the actual and even psychological, IMPRINT bundles all of those lines of thinking into one grand experiment in making impressions. Garcia, along with Eliza Naranjo Morse (Santa Clara), Jamison Chās Banks (Seneca-Cayuga, Cherokee), Terran Last Gun (Piikani), Dakota Mace (Diné) and Jacob Meders (Mechoopda/ Maidu), with Coe curators Bess Murphy and Nina Sanders (Apsáalooke), have spent the last year conceptualizing IMPRINT. This long-simmering process of co-creating a vision was, as Naranjo Morse says, similar to the organic meandering art-making itself often takes. The vision takes several forms over the course of the month and coming year, traveling beyond the walls of the Coe into social media, the streets of Santa Fe and beyond. Art works will be wheat-pasted across the city alongside a near-monthlong scavenger hunt for the official repurposed IMPRINT boxes, which will be filled with original art by all six artists. Some who find these will do so by happenstance. Others will seek its location based on clues found on social media or shared by word of mouth. In addition to the traveling boxes, Axle Contemporary hosts IMPRINTMOBILE throughout the month, and is set to travel to the Santa Clara Feast Day on Sunday Aug. 12. Finally, the official reception for IMPRINT takes place at the Coe on Tuesday Aug. 14 and includes a larger exhibition

of prints made especially for the event, as well as fare from the YouthWorks food truck, a Meow Wolf family activity, live music with DJ Garronteed and, yes, more onsite printmaking. Naranjo Morse plans to wheat-paste an enlarged drawing of a rabbit with his treasures on the wall of Consolidated Electrical Distribution ( just east of the Coe at 1590 Pacheco St.), and attendees will have a chance to contribute their own drawings to the process. Think also of the pages of SFR as another IMPRINT venue. Three pairs of artists (Meders/Banks, Last Gun/ Garcia and Naranjo Morse/Mace) each co-created one of the three covers for this edition, which can be found across the city; and look inside for free original art created by the show’s collaborators. With all of IMPRINT’s efforts to transmit cutting-edge Native printmaking into Santa Fe’s consciousness—and art into people’s hands—therein lies a fresh and untapped model for how to make art accessible to those who may never step inside an institution. And in that way, the format is apropos. As Meders, the originator of Warbird Press, a newspaper vending machine filled with $3 prints, describes, “the print is for the disenfranchised, the common man, and the community.” It is best meant for circulation. “IMPRINT acknowledges what came before us,” artist Meders says, explaining the tendency toward creative mutualism already present in Native communities. As a print collaboration, he continues, “IMPRINT just highlights how connected we already are in Indian country, … our love of working together and sharing together.”
Terran Last Gun pulling prints at Jason Garcia’s Santa Clara studio.
And where there may only be six degrees separating the rest of us from Kevin Bacon, “there are only three degrees of separation [between artists] in the Native art world, much less printmakers,” Garcia estimates. Meders is an assistant professor in arts and cultural studies at Arizona State
University, and fellow artist Banks is adjunct instructor of printmaking at the Institute of American Indian Arts. The pair have long worked together, even before IMPRINT was an inkling of an idea at the Coe. Banks describes their relationship like fishing, so easily do they bounce ideas off one another and so likeminded are their processes and simplified aesthetic. But, like Banks and Meders, all of the IMPRINT artists have already crossed paths in the intimate constellation of creativity they inhabit, whether through institutional lines or otherwise. The three covers for this issue speak to those intersecting paths: layered images that not only partake in the legacy of print—one that is long and complex in the Americas—but also build on the stories, places, histories of travel and symbolic languages each artist holds dear. Collaborating on these images took many forms, from sharing studio space and equipment, to digital files for Photoshop edits when distance couldn’t
be bridged physically. In that way, IMPRINT’s reach has already been expansive—a process of co-creating that Naranjo Morse calls “an incredible beginning.”
TAKING PRINT BACK: JACOB MEDERS AND JAMISON CHĀS BANKS “Print,” Meders explains, “is an important medium in the history of the conflict of this land.” His oeuvre often broaches the thorny relationship between image-making and colonization. His Divided Lines, a series of 3-by-2-foot woodblock prints exhibited at the IAIA Museum of Contemporary Native Arts in 2013, featured figures whose torsos were split; the upper body could have the features of an Indigenous person and the lower half of a European, or vice versa.

contact, but also to the history of European-generated print imagery, a reproducible visual format that circulated all over the Old World during the early colonial period and beyond. Meders created his prints in the vein of those early colonial examples, traveling back in time through the language of print, a language driven in some measure by the logic of cataloging Native people for Western eyes. “In order to claim the land,” Meders says, “you have to erase or nullify the existence of its Indigenous inhabitants and replace yourself as Indigenous.” This is at the core of his contribution to IMPRINT, the TOTE series, based on a dingbat (a decorative element in the language of letterpress) he found in grad school. TOTE refers to the Totem of the Eagle, a version of The Improved Order of Red Men, both 19th-century fraternal brotherhoods comprised exclusively of white men.

lip Deloria outlined in his 1998 book of that same name, and the irony of such history is palpable in Meders’ replication of the TOTE symbol, replete with the word and an Indian in profile. Banks’ IMPRINT series, The Bountiful South, focuses on the continental story of a parrot that allegedly once flew in Southwestern skies. “In the 1600s,” he says, “Spanish expeditions noted the colors of [the thick-billed parrot] in this region.” That parrot still exists in Mexico in Chihuahua and Durango, living on a healthy diet of pine nuts. As an art practice, Banks rewrites narratives. “My whole objective is to uncover information that may or may not be true,” he says. Did the parrot ever live in this region? Maybe. Maybe not. There’s a sense of truthiness (thank you Stephen Colbert) to this approach to history; a reminder, Banks muses, “that these possibilities exist.” The discipline of history tends to be like that; where hard and fast evidence doesn’t exist, there have often been leaps of the imagination. Some conclusions are likely. Others less so. But histories exist elsewhere, too. Along those lines of inquiry, an Acoma pot in the Coe’s collection bears an avian likeness to the thick-billed parrot. And Cochiti dances, Banks reminds me, use parrot feathers, too. Kites with the green bird printed on one side, based on photographs taken in Mexico a couple of years back, will hang from the skylight of the Coe this month. The Acoma pot, for which the provenance is unknown, will be on display as well. Banks’ interest in animal life and its disappearance from particular environments played out in his June 2018 exhibition in Winnipeg, Manitoba, titled Crypsis: Eradication Methods Laboratory. The title riffs on an actual agency of the same name, which began with poison research in 1916. It was, as it happens, located in Albuquerque and focused on eradicating predatory animals (think coyotes, wolves, mountain lions and

bobcats), but in the exhibition, the laboratory eerily paralleled the eradication of animals alongside the history of westward expansion and, no doubt, the Indian Wars. “Much of my work,” Banks says, “has a foundation in conflict and a loss of innocence.” Nothing says it more clearly than a screen-printed cardboard box emblazoned with the visage of Davy Crockett and the words “Official Indian Fighter Hat,” replete with a coonskin cap. It looks like it’s a throwback to the 1950s. Meders’ and Banks’ SFR cover reproduces the likeness of Crockett yet again, but overlaid with Mechoopda design motifs.
IN MULTIPLES: JASON GARCIA AND TERRAN LAST GUN A print is an artwork comprised of “multiple originals,” according to Last Gun. It seems counterintuitive—
especially when, in any other art context, copying an original artwork leads to devaluation and, worse, the loss of that je ne sais quoi (the aura, say) that pulses within originals. But prints are different. And to that end, screen-printing is the practice of thinking in layers of color separations made from positive images burned onto one or several screens. When those separations line up in all of the print iterations, making them nearly indistinguishable from one another, a print edition is born. Sometimes, however, that means making double the intended amount of the edition, just to account for error. Garcia’s Santa Clara studio is tucked just behind the Pueblo’s church in the home where his paternal grandparents used to live. “Just look outside this window,” he says, pointing beyond the turquoise frame toward the satellite dishes, electrical lines and antennas that criss-
cross the skies and roofs of houses; the visual cues that pop up in his Corn Maiden series, which features Pueblo dancers scrolling through cellphones, taking selfies or leaning against lowriders. His muses are the actual women he sees, sometimes in person and sometimes on social media. The series, he adds, is about “the influence of technology on identity.” Garcia grew up in a family of potters (his mother is the renowned Gloria Goldenrod Garcia) and pop culture. After school, Garcia recalls going to his maternal grandmother’s house where she would paint pots with Pueblo iconography. Wanting to participate, a 7-year-old Garcia instead painted images of Darth Vader. That pop culture sensibility is a trademark of his Tewa Tales of Suspense, a body of work that features characters drawn in a comic book style to tell the stories of historic events, such
as the Pueblo Revolt of 1680. Then and still now, he made clay tiles that look like comic book covers, pulling his materials from the pits just west of the Pueblo and using slips from clay he’s collected all over the Southwest. He shows me the hunks of earth, which seem to shimmer in the sunlight. It wasn’t until years after working alongside his grandmother that Garcia created a serigraph of Tewa Tales of Suspense. And though the medium changed, he says, “the work, whether pottery or print, is a linked together by a graphic illustrative format.” During a recent visit to his studio, Garcia placed paper bags underneath the screen as Last Gun pulled the squeegee, carrying the yellow speedball paint across the surface, pressing it into a print.

COMING HOME: DAKOTA MACE AND ELIZA NARANJO MORSE Spider Woman, according to Diné cosmology, was born in the second world. With the birth of the third, she shuttled across the skies weaving the cosmos.

“My work is often compared to geometrical abstraction, but it’s really representational,” Last Gun says. While some of his influences include Ellsworth Kelly, Frederick Hammersley and Wassily Kandinsky, Last Gun also points out, however, that “those artists were influenced by us.” His own prints have hard edges and vibrant colors that appear to vibrate in space, landscapes that have been distilled into simple shapes—much like his A Place of Elevation, a print that features what appears to be a mountain’s silhouette against a red ground. It’s done in a full bleed, printed from one edge of the paper to the other, and based on a photo he took of an Alan Houser sculpture on the IAIA campus. After making multiple sketches of the abstract sculpture’s upper form, Last Gun came upon his own design.

of Contemporary Native Arts, spent five consecutive days at Garcia’s studio, learning his way around and pulling prints. In thanks, he gave Garcia an artist proof of one of his creations. “I consider what I do as continuum art,” Last Gun explains, a carrying on of his tribe’s long history of using geometric design motifs on lodges (buffalo hides stretched over a conical frame). In Piikani aesthetics, the lodge can be divided into three parts: the bottom, which represents the land; the middle, which is close to the owner and not to be replicated; and the top, which represents the cosmos. Once a lodge was rendered unusable, it was laid out onto the plains or sunk into a lake. Its design could only be replicated when permission was transferred from its owner to another person. “I focus on the above and the below;” the earth, that is, and the cosmos, he said. A photograph of Last Gun’s Above Beings and Us, an edition of 10 paper bags silkscreened with four concentric disks—the sun, moon, Morningstar, and earth—is included as one of the inserts in SFR. It is based on an origin story, the birth of the Morningstar from the sun and the moon.
Jason Garcia shows off the 10 editions of Song for My Muse, Vol. 1, one of the contributions to be found in repurposed newspaper boxes that will appear around town during IMPRINT.
“She is the birth mother of weaving,” represented in a “motif with four points,” says artist Mace. It is a shape that Mace comes back to again and again in her own practice, one best described as a kind of reverent seriality. Often, the cross is surrounded by three other stylized forms that represent aspects of the landscape and deep, watery blues. Spider Woman’s four points reflect a broader “symmetry that exists in fours,” she says. “I am imprinting our way of understanding landscape through printmaking.” Mace’s signature blues, achieved through both the natural process of indigo dyeing and through the chemical development of cyanotypes, speak to the essential quality of water to all life. But creating such deep azures is timeconsuming; Mace must dip a piece of paper in an indigo bath at least 15 times to achieve the brilliant blue. Cyanotypes, alternately, require coating a lightsensitive paper while processing it with hydrogen to intensify the color and speed up the process, helped along by an ultraviolet light table. An MFA graduate student at the University of Wisconsin’s School of Human Ecology who researches the history of Diné textile design, Mace speaks of cultural forms as nomads, wandering into various groups’ hands through lineages of trade across the Americas and throughout the world, or what she calls “the cross-cultural influence of design.” Her crosses, in a way, chart that wandering path. Naranjo Morse’s landscape (seen on one SFR cover) is a kaleidoscopic drawing of a village punctuated by various architectural forms, a picture she describes as having the potential to conjure a sense of community. Mace’s crosses were like anchor points for Naranjo Morse, who calls her own drawn
landscapes “expressions of universe and the expansiveness of the world.” In the oeuvre she made for IMPRINT, drawings pull viewers toward their detailed line work and prismatic color palette. They are intimate, in that way, like small conversations in tiny, but expansive worlds. In those worlds, creatures carry their treasures and homes on their backs, as if homeward bound to fantastical communities one might find in the pages of Frog and Toad. Some of her drawings on view will likely be surrounded by shrines, comprised of materials from the Coe’s collection. Naranjo Morse, who teaches art at K’hapo Community School in Santa Clara Pueblo, describes those anthropomorphic beings as harking back to her childhood; characters that represent a sense of safety and innocence. She speaks of that innocence personally, but also in terms of her students’ process of learning—how to mix color, for example. Her classroom is a space for exploration, where she’s working through how to indigenize arts education and maintain a sense of wonder in making. There is nothing forceful about her works or their message, but there is an allusion to our unsettling political moment, especially to the increase in school shootings. Drawing becomes a way of processing what continues to reoccur: a kind of violence that poses a threat to the asylum we all find in our safe spaces, including school and home. She says this as we sit beneath the heavy branches of cottonwood trees that surround her own home and studio on land that her grandfather once farmed. IMPRINT 5 pm Tuesday Aug. 14. Free.

#Instafitnessclub harnesses social media for personal accountability and community BY JULIA GOLDBERG @votergirl
L
ast spring, I came across an article from the Nieman Foundation for Journalism about start-up Neva Labs’ quest to build a news app that worked more like health and wellness apps. Co-founder Áine Kerr was quoted as saying that the company’s research had found that “people want their news and information experience to be more like their health and fitness experiences: They want to set goals, control filters, discover new sources, track progress.” I find this idea interesting, if opaque, and like to amuse myself imagining what it would it look like for me to set goals and track progress for news consumption. For example, perhaps I could set a goal to consume less national news inclined to make me enraged and psychotic on a daily basis and then receive cheerful notifications: “Way to go, Julia! You made it three hours without reading about the crumbling state of society! Rock star!”
JULIA GOLDBERG
A Hashtag a Day
Sarcasm notwithstanding, consumer use of health and wellness apps continues to boom. A recent Forbes article on the growth of partnerships between fitness apps and streaming music services noted that the Consumer Technology Association reports that “portable consumer fitness tech” (things like Fitbits and smart watches but also, apparently, smart basketballs and baseballs) will bring in approximately $6.4 billion in sales this year in the US alone—a 10 percent increase from last year. I’ve been wearing a Fitbit for three years this month (at least that’s what the Fitbit says). I almost took it off after reading Dave Eggers’ book The Circle, in which personal accountability and social sharing join together to create a dystopian nightmare, but then the 2016 election happened and I figured there were more alarming things to worry about than my need to ensure I’d walked 10,000 steps a day. Besides, I don’t share my Fitbit stats, compete with anyone or announce the various silly badges I’ve received (in May, I earned the “Nile” badge for having walked 4,132 miles). I just stomp along listening to news podcasts all by my lonesome, becoming grouchier and more despondent by the minute—it’s the best part of my day and I feel no need to share it with anyone. Not so for Amy Tischler. Co-owner of Simply Social Media and @amytischler on Instagram, Tischler recently unveiled a new personal initiative through the platform: #instafitnessclub, which makes use of the new Instagram feature, IGTV, as a means of personal accountability, but also of community building.
Simply put, Tischler records short (approximately four-minute) videos in tandem with her exercise routine. What began as an experiment in personal accountability for Tischler about a month ago morphed into an initiative in which others share their own fitness and health goals. Tischler’s videos are honest and engaging. She talks about the struggles to stay on track with exercise as the mother of three children with a full-time business. She records them after her walk, without makeup or even brushed hair (aka, how I look all the time). And her candor with her struggles around exercise, healthy eating and other topics immediately drew others in. Last week, I met up with Tischler at 7:30 am at a city park (we decided for safety’s sake not to advertise specifically where Tischler can be found) for a walk. Tischler is not the typical social media user, as social media is her business. She met her business partner, Caitlin Jenkins, on Instagram three years ago. So in June, when Instagram rolled out IGTV‚ which allows users to share videos that are as
Simply Santa Fe co-owner Amy Tischler decided to use the nascent IGTV to create accountability for her fitness goals, and #instafitness was born.
long as an hour (previously they could only be a minute long), Tischler needed to be an early adopter. At the same time, she was thinking about her own personal goals around exercise, and decided to experiment with the new video service. “The timing was serendipitous,” Tischler says. “IGTV appeared on the scene, and I was trying to stay on top of that and figure that out, because it’s my job. And so I thought, ‘I’ll go super public and make myself accountable and trick myself into walking by doing these videos.’” She adds: “People started responding; it was resonating with a lot of people.” Through a conversation in private messaging on Instagram, the idea hit to use the hashtag #instafitnessclub so that others could participate and share their own challenges and accomplishments. “It was totally unintended and it happened fast,” she says, “but that was in part because I was already comfortable making connections through social media.” The project is grounded in the concept of using social media for accountability. “I make a million excuses because I have a million excuses,” she says. “And then someone will tag me in their story. I’ll be like, ‘I got to get up and do it.’” But #instafitnessclub also “is evolving into people having conversations. … People love to share their experiences and what works for them.” And Tischler has found she’s talking about exercise and food, yes, but also “whatever random thing pops into my head.” Despite building a business on social media, Tischler is normally very private about her own life, so she’s been surprised by her response to the experiment. “I think the physical and emotional vulnerability that has come out has surprised me about myself,” she says. But given the fractured, pressurized landscape we all live in, she’s happy to have found another outlet for building relationships. “I think we’re all desperate to make these connections,” she says. “Having these daily touch points has been really lovely for me.”

THE MAN, THE MYTH One of the most passionate points made by former US Secretary of Energy Ernest Moniz in a talk at the Lensic a few weeks ago was that Robert Oppenheimer, despite having accusations of treason leveled against him, was endlessly loyal to the United States. It’s generally accepted that the US screwed up big-time when it stripped the head of the Manhattan Project of his security clearance, but historians and scientists still heatedly discuss the unique man’s motivations. In a panel presented by Recursos de Santa Fe, Oppenheimer biographer Gregg Herken, KGB communications decryption veteran John E Haynes and legal expert Jim Fitzpatrick are moderated by former CIA agent Valerie Plame Wilson.

EVENT SUN/12 BAM! POW! ZAP! As the world of superheroes, graphic novels and pop culture becomes more accessible, why shouldn’t there be an Indigenous celebration of the art forms? In fact, in just under three short years, the Indigenous Comic Con has grown exponentially and even announced plans to debut in Australia. But how might underprivileged Native youths get in on the action? Easy: You. Visit the Jean Cocteau Cinema this Sunday for the Native Youth Sponsorships Fundraiser, a gathering with guests like cartoonist Ricardo Caté, live screen-printing with clothing company Saba Wear and the Indigenous Futurisms fashion showcase. All proceeds help Native kids get three-day passes to the event at Isleta Resort and Casino this November. The event is by donation—so give generously.

THEATER
THU/9 - SAT/11
Traitors, Treason and Poison Darts … but it’s funny this time “Everybody hates you and you’re out of cash. Go home.” These days, more refreshing words couldn’t possibly be spoken to a president—and attorney Archer Brown does just that quite early on in November, the last show of the season from New Mexico Actors Lab. Brown (played by a slick Geoffrey Pomeroy) is adviser to the hapless and horrible President Charles Smith (the ever-friendly Robert Nott, perhaps too doofy and not quite hateable enough) in this satirical take on American politics penned by David Mamet. Mamet, best known for the famously foul-mouthed Glengarry Glen Ross, wrote November in 2008 to lampoon the Bush administration. It’s mercifully not as depressing or epithet-laden as Glengarry (essentially, I didn’t want to end my life as I left the theater), but some of the jokes that we would have found outrageous during the Obama administration just feel too normal now— particularly when President Smith calls a Native American chief “Tonto” over the phone, we aren’t even fazed (Tonto, Pocahontas, whatever). Seems par for the course.
Maybe don’t go to this show if you fancy the theater as a “safe place” away from politics. Spoiler alert, though: That’s not what theater is for. Actress Jody Durham is the blond and beautiful Clarice Bernstein, who Kellyanne Conway probably wishes she was. It’s always muttered that Mamet’s works are misogynistic—and sure, the way in which the male characters treat Bernstein and the silly way in which she’s written smacks of sexism … until you look at everyone in this play. They’re all assholes. They’re all stupid. They’re all entertaining. This is equal opportunity lambasting, and we’re here for it. Toward the end, when in a hairy dilemma, President Smith barks to Brown: “Wait. Are we still in the UN?” “Let me check,” Brown says, whipping out his phone. It’s funny ’cause it feels so true.

MUSIC
Out of the Bedroom Eamon Fogarty and the power of prog rock BY ALEX DE VORE a l e x @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
M
usician Eamon Fogarty is somewhere in America, touring with his band in tow, when we speak on the phone. I mean to ask where he is, really, but we get wrapped up in conversation—about prog rock, DIY, the old days of punk rock and his salad days at Middlebury College in Vermont. Fogarty’s current tour is also his big move from New York City to Santa Barbara, California, where his girlfriend lives, so I know his time was precious. Still, I’ve been bumping his album Progressive Bedroom (out last year on Indiana label Joyful Noise Recording) practically nonstop since he sent it last week, ahead of his upcoming appearance at Zephyr Community Art Studio, and I can say without hesitation that Fogarty’s got the goods. A subtle yet comforting combination of proggy weirdness wrapped in an accessible pop ‘n’ guitar package, Bedroom is the kind of album that can phase from a pretty keyboard-laden instrumental intro like “Spannungsgesteuerter Nervenzusammenbruch” (don’t ask me to pronounce it) to a soulfully groovin’ bass line beneath Fogarty’s Stephin Merritt-esque vocal work on a jam like “The Carrot” without feeling disjointed; if prog rock is the foundation, indie rock is built on top of that.
“I like to be adaptable,” musician Eamon Fogarty says.
“[My] band in high school—we were really into progressive rock,” Fogarty says, recalling a time in the early aughts when he eschewed the burgeoning and popular world of hardcore and screamo for weirdo bands like Can or Neu!, a time when he was developing his musical sensibilities. “We liked improvising and we liked writing our sort of Baroque song suites and instrumental freak-outs a la the first Pink Floyd albums, but it was a very insular period of musical development. Interacting with an audience didn’t develop for us until later.” He’d go on to college at Middlebury to pursue environmental studies and nonfiction writing ( journalism, Fogarty says, is for “people who have their shit together”—agree to disagree), a place where he’d also join the chorus and advance musically, picking up theory and better habits, opening his mind even further to the possibilities of classical music and jazz. After college, he went to work as a cheesemonger in New York City where, he says, “I was just trying to make music,” but it wasn’t until a fateful trip to Los Angeles that Progressive Bedroom really came together.
The musical aspects had been completed in a home studio in Catskill, New York—the instrumental tracks, overdubs and all—but Fogarty took his sweet time with vocals until a friend connected him with Psychic Temple mastermind Chris Schlarb in LA. They worked the vocals out quickly and Fogarty would eventually join Schlarb for a tour that subsequently led to Fogarty’s next album, nearly finished with the working title Blue Values. If Fogarty had enjoyed improv before, Schlarb’s work in connecting him with more than 10 session musicians for the as-yet unreleased stuff brought it to another level. “We only had two days. We almost didn’t even rehearse half the time, but they were just bringing everything I could possibly want to the table,” Fogarty says. “I could give them the vaguest instructions and they’d know exactly what I was talking about.” It’s unclear what the final product will sound like, but if Progressive Bedroom is any indication, it should expand on Fogarty’s willingness to experiment with time and melody. As for the title of Progressive Bedroom, Fogarty says it’s a bit like a joke to
himself. “It’s my way of describing what I do because, for me, a lot of people these days might associate ‘bedroom production’ with a Mac DeMarco—someone who records everything in his bedroom,” Fogarty explains. “But the first artist I associate with that is Elliott Smith, and it’s kind of my way of starting to anticipate that question, ‘What do you do?’” Rest assured, Fogarty still plans to take full advantage of the professional studio world. He says he’s learning more every day about what goes into making the albums he loves the way they sound, even if he does have a background of home recording. Regardless, he’s cultivated a lot of material and says the scope of a venue can dictate what he might play. “Sometimes it’s fun to just play something strummy. A folk song,” he says. “I like to be adaptable. We’ll figure it out.”

COURTESY DANIEL MURPHY
In recent years, Santa Fe musician Daniel Murphy has steadily built his own musical identity as guitarist for metal act Fields of Elysium and a teacher at The Candyman Strings & Things. He’s also dabbled in the solo songwriter realm, playing with some of Santa Fe’s favorite session musicians and always striving to expand his musical vocabulary. Murphy takes over Boxcar this Saturday Aug. 11 (10 pm. Free. 530 S Guadalupe St., 988-7222) with originals and covers. (Alex De Vore) The solo route. What’s that like? For certain venues and situations, I show up and play acoustic guitar and run through originals and covers. The majority of the time I have a drummer or bassist. It was a set crew for awhile—generally I have Case Tanner playing bass. I have another project that’s more of an instrumental acid jazz thing. I play with Fields of Elysium and still a lot of the side man stuff. It is really satisfying [to collaborate]. It’s less about me requesting and receiving a certain type of sound and more about picking musicians who I trust to input their sound. I’m kind of a control freak when it comes to the player and the personality that comes out in the sound, but I’d rather defer to somebody’s better judgement. I find that’s kind of the fun thing about what I get from the sound—it’s that satisfaction, but it’s less about me saying, ‘Oh, you achieved that thing I was going for!’ And more saying, ‘That’s why I wanted you on the gig.’ I’m definitely more of a collaborator. I’m definitely more about letting people be themselves and have their own sound. Are you trained? Self-taught? I started playing guitar a long time ago—for the record, 20 years ago, and I self-taught for a long time. My dad was a musician but we had really different approaches. I went through a long period of learning by ear for four or five years. You have things and terminology you pick up; I knew enough to get by, but I’d go home and read books about theory and learn how to read charts and understand drummers. Then there was a big learning curve in my 20s when I went from a decent to pretty advanced ear player, to rounding out that side of being a musician. Now I teach music theory at the Candyman, and it’s pretty interesting. I’m not 100 percent sure, but I think I’m the only self-taught teacher there. What’s in the future? Albums? Touring? I’m actively working on a YouTube model for that. I’ve been practicing doing some blogging stuff. I’ve felt like, over the years, YouTube has become a lot more important to me, musically—the people who are on that center stage, they mean a lot more to me than the usual in-your-face idea of who’s the best or most successful musician. I’ve found for a lot of people who do well with YouTube, it allows them to have an outlet for being prolific, which I feel I’ve always been. But I hoard everything I do. I would say I have confidence issues. If you’ve ever met me, I’m very personable and gregarious, but when it comes to actually releasing stuff, I’m really timid. I felt like if there were a less-pressure environment, somewhere where this can live, I don’t need anyone to hear it unless they find it.

Around The World Photographer William Frej’s globe-trotting pilgrimage
BY ALEX DE VORE |

WILLIAM FREJ
hotographer William Frej reminded me persistently of his existence via email, but in a really friendly way. I’d reached out first, after all, but I’d been distracted by flooding—apparently, he had not, and made sure I remembered that I had once wanted to meet him before my house had been filled with water. And anyway, he’d have to be tenacious given the breadth of his catalogue. We’re talking tens of thousands of images taken over five-plus decades from across the planet. As Frej puts it, “I always traveled with my camera at my side.” Frej studied photography in the 1960s under Boyd Nicholl and Paul H Kuiper at the University of Arizona. The latter studied under famed photographer Ansel Adams; Frej even has an original Adams in his library— Yosemite’s Half Dome. Frej as a shooter, meanwhile, has that combination of stellar eye and utter patience, allowing him to line up a beautiful shot and wait for just the right moment of light. “Sometimes you get lucky,” he says as we peruse his work at Peyton Wright Gallery together. But the truth is: It’s talent. Frej moved to Santa Fe with his wife eight years ago after retiring, but both spent time here in the ’70s. In addition to photography, he’d studied architecture at U of A and city planning at the University of California, Berkeley. Those fields helped him spearhead an organization called the Santa Fe Neighborhood Housing Services, which helped Santa Feans buy homes—you know it better today as Homewise. Frej and his wife would also spend time living in Chicago and San Francisco, but Santa Fe always called to them. “Santa Fe, I think, is the closest city in the United States to a culturally rich Indigenous environment,” he says. “It’s a great place

Another shot from India features a Sadhu, or holy man, in the foreground, smiling widely. A rickshaw driver sits just out of frame. In the background, Frej describes, a man and woman, both without legs, forage for who-knows-what. Cows, sacred in India, round out the scene alongside a sacred tree. “This is India,” he says softly, perhaps noticing new layers in his own work. This shot is indicative of this particular body of Frej’s, where so much is going on, it begs the viewer for extended time. Others include a religious sunset procession in Guatemala and ceremonial mask-wearers in Tibet. In 2010, Frej even captured the site of the Buddha of Bamiyam some nine years after the Taliban destroyed it. And there’s more on the way, too. Frej won’t get into the details of who and how, but he says an American university aims to publish his next book, a compendium of shots of remote Mayan ruins taken while following in the footsteps of 19th-century archaeologist-turned-explorer and photographer Teoberto Maler. “The Mayans,” he says, trailing off briefly, “it’s still so mysterious— but the architecture of the Mayan world is so distinct and varied that being able to document these masterpieces in a fine art sense—well, nobody’s been looking at Mayan architecture in a fine arts context.” If anyone can do it and do it right, it’s Frej. “I’ve had an almost 60-year love of photography, and now I have an opportunity to really pursue it,” he says. “So, yeah. I’m busy.” WILLIAM FREJ: SACRED SITES AND CEREMONIES Through Sept. 4. Peyton Wright Gallery, 237 E Palace Ave., 989-9888

THEATER How is your career different now, with success, than it was when you were younger? I accept fewer jobs. I can’t always afford it, but I go, ‘I just know if I do that, I’ll end up hating what I love.’ … When I was 15 or 16, there was a [magician] from Chicago who was big in the region. … I was really eager to meet him. He did a lot of trade shows, where you’re selling products— you stop people, you work the message of the product into your magic trick, and then send them on their way. You do that show 20 or 30 times a day. I met this guy, I’m just a pimply-faced teenager, like, ‘Oh, jeez, it must be great to be a professional magician!’ and he’s like—‘Oh yeah, great. You’re on your feet all day, your feet are sore, you’ve gotta go out with the client afterward and drink or you don’t get booked back, then you wake up in the morning and look in the mirror and your eyes are bloodshot and you say, ‘I’m gonna do this trick 80 times today.’ And it shocked me. He really didn’t like it any more. He was sick of it. I said, ‘I’m never going to do magic for a living.’ … So I worked office jobs, some retail jobs—but finally I said, ‘If I’m going to struggle, I’m going to struggle with something I like.’ So ... I’m very careful to not take things I don’t want to do.
what I can do,’ and the other is ‘Experience this. Did you feel that? Wasn’t that amazing, what you just felt?’

eople have a picture in their minds when you say magic; either David Copperfield dancing around or some guy with confetti cannons and bunnies at a birthday party,” John Carney says by way of introduction. “But I enjoy the minimalist thing. I don’t have people hiding under the table or offstage with listening devices. Everything is me.” This weekend at the Adobe Rose Theatre, Carney joins a growing cadre of magicians swinging through Santa Fe—many of whom will hit the Jean Cocteau Cinema—to show close-up magic, illusions and mind-reading (it’s family-friendly, but not for kids; the older you are, the greater percentage of jokes you’ll get). As a dyed-in-the-wool magic nerd, I knew I had to ask Carney about what I think is the most fascinating form of performing art in existence. He’s been on Letterman and has won more awards than anyone else from Hollywood’s Magic Castle (kind of a magician’s Mecca), so he could be one of the best there is. SFR: You talk a lot about your mentor, Dai Vernon. What made him so good? JC: Vernon was probably one of the greatest sleight of hand [artists] in the 20th century. He was not just good with his hands; he was good with the psychology and the choreography, and it had a real elegance and history to it. … He went deeper. It was seamless. His thing was, ‘Never let them know that you’re doing sleight of hand—you never display your skill.’ … There’s a trend now—and it’s perfectly fine if you want to do that, it’s not my thing—where you display a lot of skill. You flip the cards around, you do a
lot of fancy things, and people say ‘Wow, that’s great’—well, it’s more juggling than anything else. So what is the difference between what you do and the flashy stuff ? It’s a different impression that you give people: One is, ‘Wow, you’re really skillful, you’re really great,’ and the other one is, ‘How can that possibly be?’ It’s a sense of wonder. They’re two different ends of the spectrum. One is, ‘Appreciate me, look

Speaking of juggling, a former associate of mine who was a street performer once said that jugglers are the lowest of the low, respect-wise. I mean, I can’t juggle, I’m not dissing the skill—but is there a hierarchy in this field? He’s wrong about that jugglers thing. I don’t care if you’re a mime or a juggler or a magician or a musician, I take it case by case. I’ve seen really horrible jugglers and I’ve seen really brilliant jugglers. I’ve seen really good technical jugglers that were boring, and really average technical jugglers that were immensely entertaining. The same thing with magicians. … And it sounds kind of pretentious to talk about magic as an art form, but that’s what I’m shooting for. I invest enough thought and care into it that it transforms. Really, what is painting or music? … It’s not the tools, it’s not the art form; is the person an artist? And whether anybody would agree whether I’m an artist or not, that’s what I’m going for, and there’s responsibility to that and a discipline to that. … I don’t put a hierarchy on the art form. I can tell how much time they’ve invested, just by their skill level and their performance skill level.
A number of years ago, that selfsame street performing magician wowed me with a pretty simple trick—then after the show, he told me he’d tell me how he did it as long as I went to dinner with him. Did he break some kind of magician code by telling me a secret to a trick to get a date? There’s no rule book—but yeah, I mean, he took a shortcut to asking you out. He’s more at fault for using that as an excuse. But you know … when you talk about just ‘the secret,’ the secret is simple. I can explain ‘the secret’ in a sentence; how it was done. But that is just one percent of the whole thing. … There are so many other things involved. Body language, the way you communicate with people, what makes them suspicious, the psychology, the presentation, the technique. … If you just say ‘the secret’—oh, you pretend to put it here and do that— people toss it off and say, ‘That’s all there is.’ But there’s so much more to magic than that one secret.

Chef Matt Yohalem has been turning out rustic Italian food at this homey Marcy Street location for more than two decades now. The kitchen makes its own flours and pasta from local wheat that is locally ground. Yohalem makes a point of buying local produce, too, as he has for years. The prix fixe lunch ($25) is a midday treat that will get you an appetizer, entree and the dessert you wouldn’t otherwise splurge on. At dinner, the whole-leaf Caesar salad ($12) and Corsican gazpacho ($10) are standout starters. The pumpkin ravioli ($15/$23) comes drizzled in
Sunrise Family Restaurant Santa Fe loves its old things that live again as new things. This St. Michael’s Drive dive extraordinaire is one of them. The former Green Onion (colloquially, the Grunion) is just below the surface in the decor that has not seen a redo in more than a decade, but here you’ll find another place to feel familiar. Get to Rafael Aldana’s family-run restaurant by looking for the satellite dish that’s been painted like a plate of bacon and eggs. Sunrise, as the name indicates, is best for breakfast. It offers standard local fare with a huge menu that’s got three-egg-white spinach omelets for the healthy types ($8.25) and biscuits and gravy with chorizo (order both a la carte), huevos rancheros ooz-
ing with cheese ($7.99), bowls of tender beans and piles of fried potatoes for everyone else. Lunch and dinner mean a chance at three asada tacos with beans and rice ($8.99). Those tiny cubes of steak are served with grilled onion and a cold avocado wedge on a soft corn tortilla that can barely hold in the flavor. Bottomless hot coffee in shapely white mugs that beg to be held and bottles of Coke are on the beverage list, but no beer here. Maybe, after the night you had, you should just order menudo for $7.50 and be happy. (Julie Ann Grimm) 1851 St. Michael’s Drive, 820-0643 Breakfast and lunch daily sunriserestaurantnm.com

nough radioactive material to endanger the whole city in the wrong hands. That’s what was inside an 80-gallon plastic drum secured with duct tape and Velcro, left in an abandoned building on Airport Road as recently as last year. The old Eberline Instruments facility sits behind a fence near where the southwest Santa Fe thoroughfare intersects South Meadows Road. Sweeney Elementary School is less than 500 feet away, and some homes and businesses are even closer. The global company that owns the land says the radioactive material called americium-241 was further encased inside a smaller steel drum and sealed air-tight before someone finally took it away. But a letter state officials sent to Thermo Fisher Scientific last summer indicates some toxic material may still remain unaccounted for. What’s bad for Santa Fe is that nearly everything the public knows about the property’s potential contamination has come from the company itself, a Massachusetts-based world manufacturer of laboratory instrumentation and high-tech equipment with a spotty track record for following safety regulations at its Eberline facility. It’s not just 2 grams of americium-241, a radioactive nuclide resulting from decayed isotopes of plutonium forged in nuclear reactors, that was left sitting around. There was a long list of other similarly toxic radioactive materials used when manufacturing occurred there. Until a decade ago, the Eberline plant made radiation detection equipment that it shipped to nuclear facilities all over the world. The plant’s founder, Howard Clayton Eberline, had imagined in the 1950s that Santa Fe would supply the instruments to facilitate the nuclear energy revolution. The facility’s trajectory from the front lines of this industry to a poison-packed shell on the city’s edge is as much a story about local industrial decline as it is about a lack of accountability. A review by SFR of half a century’s worth of newspaper reporting as well as records from the state Environment Department suggest that Eberline’s role as a large employer and the stature of

Cornbread Moon Tha Smoke Shack serves up delicious Southern barbecue, one turkey leg at a time

here was already a line forming at 11:45 am when I approached Tha Smoke Shack, a food truck decorated with cheerfully colored winged pigs flying down its side. It’s parked in a used car lot at the corner of St. Michael’s and Cerrillos, next to a cord of wood and a coal-black smoker that vaguely resembles the caboose of a train. Turns out that wood came a long way. Every two months, owner Michael Baker makes a pilgrimage to Texas to pick up a truckload of split dried oak logs. “That pile there came from a tree that was over 15 years old,” he tells me. “Then they season it for a year and a half. A lot of people in the Southwest use mesquite, hickory and apple, stuff like that, but I don’t do that. Mesquite has a harsh taste, and gives too much smoke.” Using the right wood is one of the fundamental steps in creating some of the most mouth-watering traditional Southern barbecue Santa Fe currently has on offer. The oak in question is used to fire the smoker, which has an inner tunnel connected to the fire box. It funnels smoke into a chamber that bounces it back toward the food being cooked above the burning logs. “It gives it a more even smoke,” Baker explains. Inside are rows of gleaming, foil-covered containers of brisket, pulled pork, chicken, turkey legs, baby back
Authentic Southern barbecue comes from a used car lot in Midtown.
ribs, spare ribs, sausage and onions. The meats are dry rubbed and placed in the smoker to slowly cook in their own juices. Depending on the cut, it can take almost a half day—the brisket and pulled pork take up to 10 hours. Baker likes his ribs to practically melt off the bone, so he dry rubs them twice during cooking to get the right texture. “This is backyard barbecue, not competition barbecue, which is when you bite into it and the meat stays on the bone,” he explains. On average, almost everything ranges from $8 to $13, with a half rack of ribs going a little higher for $15 and a full rack for $32. “You can come here on your lunch break and get a good meal for $10. We’re not here to break your pocket,” Baker says cheerfully from behind a window, wrapping an enormous turkey leg up to go. “We’re just here to fill your belly up and put a smile on your face.” Depending on the day, there are also sides of cole slaw, baked beans, loaded baked potatoes, cornbread muffins, sweet potato pie and collard greens. Baker’s day is a rigorous cycle of cleaning and cooking, not to mention caring for two sons, one of whom has cerebral palsy. The Bakers moved here in 2015 because
the climate suited his son’s condition better than their central Florida hometown of Bartow. In the beginning, however, he was homeless for two months, and he worked at a McDonald’s and a Shell gas station for two and a half years. All the while, he saved up the money to achieve his dream, which culminated in the opening of the food truck last May. “When I moved here I told my boys we’re going to be okay,” Baker recalls. “My son was like, ‘Dad, they don’t do barbecue here’—and I told him that’s right, that’s what’s going to set us apart from everybody else. We’ll be the first black Southern barbecue in Santa Fe.” I ask him if I can quote him on that, and he says it’s okay. “I don’t want to offend anyone,” he says with a laugh. “But sometimes I ask people, ‘Did you pull over because you saw a black man outside cooking barbecue?’ And they always say yes.” I sample the half rack of ribs, and from the second I open the hot tin foil up to the third napkin I use to wipe the sauce from my fingers, I can’t put it down. They are perfectly tender, the sauce is vinegary and slightly sweet, yet slightly spicy—and comes on the side, rather than slathered on the meat. The chicken and turkey legs
are equally tender, served alongside the same sauce. “I feel that when you put barbecue sauce on the meat you’re trying to hide something,” Baker explains. “You want to taste the meat, then you add the sauce.” The sauce in question is a family recipe, handed down through generations. “My grandpa started doing it 60 years ago, and he told my dad and my dad didn’t tell anybody until he was on his deathbed. And then he told me. A week later he passed away,” Baker says. “He said I finally deserved to get it.” Baker also plans on debuting a cinnamon apple green chile barbecue sauce in the coming weeks, hiring more people, and hopefully expanding to a storefront in the future. “My dad owned a restaurant called The Silver Spoon, and we called it a juke joint because you could go dance and have a beer and eat all at the same time,” Baker reminisces. “That’s how I want it to go here. I want something small that feels like home.” THA SMOKE SHACK St. Michael’s Drive and Cerrillos Road, 303-8808 Noon-7 pm Tuesday-Saturday. Cash only.

MOVIES Eighth Grade Review Bo Burnham’s bittersweet love letter to the most awkward time of our lives
9
ALEX DE VORE a l e x @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
Newcomer Elsie Fisher achieves what must be the most profound and natural performance of the year as newly minted teen Kayla in comedian Bo Burnham’s screenwriting and directorial debut, Eighth Grade. A smart and intimate overview of a young woman’s waning middle school career, Burnham’s opus is at turns sickly-sweet and moving, terrifying and nostalgic; painful and hysterical, but earnest in a simple yet powerful way. Kayla is like any teen of today, a phone in her hand at all times and an overactive relationship with the internet, who tries to eke by unnoticed in a middle school full of familiar archetypes— the jocks and art kids, the band geeks and popular girls, the nerds and theater dweebs. But whereas most films focused on such an historically awkward era follow hyperactive sex drives or the tired popularity-at-all-costs thread, Burnham’s story humanizes high school-aged kids while unpacking new-world dilemmas alongside age-old drama. Kayla casts an introverted and awkward pall over everything, fearing pool parties, school

REVELATION; EERILY RELATABLE - DRAGS IN PLACES; SOUNDTRACK IS ANNOYING
politics and her crush while cultivating an online personality steeped in endearing naiveté, yet valuable as an emotional sounding board— even if practically nobody is watching. Fisher feels effortlessly authentic, an emotional and dimensional being who can shift from the thrill of new friends to the agony of self-loathing without missing a beat. Say what you will of the modern teen, but their world feels more complicated now. Burnham, it seems, understands their plight as well as some of the too-mature pitfalls they face as a generation that has always known the internet. Frances Ha’s Josh Hamilton shines as well as Kayla’s single father, a man who aches to protect his daughter as she ventures deeper into the world, but ultimately trusts and understands her age-appropriate mood swings. He knows Kayla is
cool, perhaps even ahead of her time, even if he does wind up doing embarrassing dad things now and then. But Fisher is the draw here, and we slowly learn how strong she really is. Throughout Eighth Grade, she faces her fears with a steadfast resolve, speaking her mind and embracing her vulnerability despite her self-perceived shortcomings and flaws. Kayla is a modern-day hero—for any gender or lack thereof—perhaps because we can see ourselves in her coming of age story, or maybe just because she never strays too far from honesty with herself and those around her. EIGHTH GRADE Directed by Burnham With Fisher and Day Regal, The Screen, Violet Crown, R, 93 min.

BLINDSPOTTING

Toxic friendship really doesn’t help anyone in Blindspotting.
+ INCREDIBLE PERFORMANCES, MUSICAL AND VISUAL SEQUENCES; THE MESSAGE - MEANDERING CLIMAX
With three days left before his probation ends, Oakland resident Collin (Daveed Diggs) makes a conscious effort to finish up his time with no hiccups. But it’s hard when his fiery and charismatic best friend Miles (Rafael Casal) isn’t looking for the same. A love letter to the city of Oakland, warts and all, Blindspotting proves an electrifying story, and one of the best this year has to offer yet. As the scribes, co-producers and stars, Diggs and Casal reveal a changing environment alongside a deep yet toxic friendship. Collin always seems to be the voice of reason to Miles’ outbursts, but as such, he generally becomes the recipient of backlash. It’s often amusing, but mostly at the expense of the brutal undertones of their environment, exposing ugliness through a necessary dose of sugar. While Collin privately struggles, Miles tries to raise a child with his girlfriend, Ashley, amazingly played by TV mainstay Jasmine

Cephas Jones. Janina Gavankar (of the canceled show Sleepy Hollow) also makes an impression as Val—at first glance just Collin’s crush, but someone who proves much deeper. Onetime teen heartthrob Ethan Embry shows up, unexpectedly, as the police officer we know too well these days, destroying Collin’s psyche with his reckless actions. Director Carlos Lopez Estrada knows this is Diggs and Casal’s show, and his visual style, spearheaded through cinematographer Robby Baumgartner, gives a lively playground for the actors to play in. And they do, wholeheartedly. He might have been too generous at times, however, and could have reminded his stars that less is sometimes more— but, given the final product, it’s a minor complaint. Within three days, we see two boys make the final transition into men: Men with regrets, anxieties, weaknesses, passions, hopes and dreams; examples of the men we see killed on the news all too frequently, but men who identify and pursue a different kind of home in a city they’ve survived their entire lives.

Callahan), the moral winds up landing fairly far from cautionary drunk driving tale, instead asking us to question our own motivations, forgive when possible and, ultimately, to choose life. Callahan is here portrayed by Joaquin Phoenix, one of contemporary film’s most committed character actors. As Callahan, Phoenix captures an eerie combination of charming and asshole, from the self-pitying early days of his paralysis to the barely restrained joy of becoming the regular cartoonist for Willamette Week (SFR’s sister paper, by the way). It’s no solo journey, however, and Jonah Hill’s turn as Callahan’s sponsor Donnie is surprisingly rich for the usually goofy actor. Perhaps he’s growing as a performer? Regardless, and despite the film’s best efforts, Donnie’s story is overshadowed by Callahan— which may seem obvious given the central premise, but when we discover Donnie died of AIDS, the news is delivered fleetingly; short shrift for a savior role, but again—this is Callahan’s journey. And it is triumphant, all things considered. We watch as he slowly regains relative use of his hands and develops his illustrative style; we cheer as he builds a relationship with his one-time physical therapist Annu (Rooney Mara); we feel alongside Callahan as he searches for the mother who gave him up for adoption.
MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE - FALLOUT REVIEW
7
+ THRILLINGLY OVER-THE-TOP
ACTION; (MOSTLY) MAGNETIC CAST
- EVERY CLICHE IMAGINABLE
Mission: Impossible - Fallout, the franchise’s sixth installment, throws away coherency and realism, replacing these with palpable tension and absurd action pieces. Ghosts of Ethan Hunt’s (Tom Cruise) past come back to haunt him as a cache of plutonium is lost on his watch, and it’s up to the Impossible Missions Force (ugh) to combat a group of terrorists called The Apostles in retrieving it. Fans of the series will appreciate the gunplay, fistfights, mask-wearing and daredevil stunts provided by Cruise, anyone else will find a serviceable action flick that works OK for late summer. Cruise is loose—hydrated and unstoppable, remarkable for a 56-year-old actor. Henry Cavill (Man From UNCLE), meanwhile, looks as if he’s been sleeping in his car for the last few weeks. He’s so puffy, he can’t fully put his arms down. Ving Rhames is surprisingly soulful as Luther Stickell, however, and his long-standing relationship with Cruise’s Ethan Hunt takes the forefront, further strengthening their 23-year bond. Elsewhere, Rebecca Ferguson (Life) has the most spectacular character entrance in the film, and although she is underused, she is easily the biggest scene-stealer. Simon Pegg further proves he belongs in the series with some of the best scenes coming from his familiarity with every single recurring character. Alec Baldwin shows up, too, basically playing himself, but Angela Bassett capably counters his forgiving-father archetype with a stern mother character as head of the CIA. Sean Harris, the stereotypical villain, growls and makes threats. An honorable mention does go to True Detective alum Michelle Monaghan as it was particularly nice to see her come back to the series. Christopher McQuarrie returns as well as series writer/director, following up his success with the fifth installment, Rogue Nation. McQuarrie’s directing style is competent enough as far as action scenes go, but between the too-frequent double crosses and an excess of cheesy lines (21 by this author’s rough count), his writing skills feel weak. The sets and cinematography simultaneously scream “pretty” and “fake.” Still, as we approach late summer, there are far worse choices. Fallout is as silly as it comes, but at least it isn’t a disappointment. (MKG) Regal, Violet Crown, PG-13, 147 min.

+ IT’S A HEART-WRENCHING THINKER - MINIMAL STORYTELLING LEAVES LOTS UNDONE
For a movie based on the post-service experiences of disturbed veteran, the soundscape of Leave No Trace is stunning in its quiet. Not just its lack of flashbacks, mind you, but its pensive non-verbal communication—all the sounds you don’t hear. For a movie that takes place largely in the dripping wet woods of the Pacific Northwest, the complexity of the plot is fitting in its density. There are few rewards in being such an outsider that even your own footprint creates a sense of unease. But that is the life that Will (Ben Foster, ) lives, in complete survivalist mode, and thus the life in which he leads his daughter Tom (Thomasin Harcourt McKenzie). The backstory of where and when he served and what happened to Tom’s mother isn’t important in this telling, although we admit we crave more of that. The unknowns of how they came to live on public land are still gnawing days after our viewing. Foster conveys gruff love with deep eyes since his face is largely hidden under a golden beard, and Tom’s own chin does some of her biggest heaves as it quivers under the weight of her coming of age. “The same

thing that’s wrong with you,” she says at a pivotal moment, “isn’t wrong with me.” The two characters get all the artistic focus of director Debra Granik, known for her griping Missouri woods rendition of Winter’s Bone; Leave No Trace is also adapted from a novel, by Peter Rock, which that author says is based on a true story. This one’s also solemn and unjust as the pair suffers the intervention of social services. It feels true enough: the rules our society imposes, the way in which for many those rules are just too much to bear. And how we don’t have much room, really, for figuring out a way to loosen the bondage to allow for healing. (Julie Ann Grimm) Violet Crown, PG, 109 min.

If you’re going to live off the grid, don’t, like, let social services find you—that’s the moral of Leave No Trace. Or something about family? Whatever. But as we wonder whether we could survive paralysis (or would even want to), Don’t Worry dips painfully close to boring. It’s certainly fun to see punk rock legends like Kim Gordon and Carrie Brownstein tackle minimal roles as a fellow alcoholic and a social worker, respectively, but outside of the moment wherein you recognize them, we’re talking characters who ultimately have very little to do with anything. Even Jack Black’s appearance as the ill-fated driver in Callahan’s accident feels almost unimportant, or at least like it could have been just anyone in the role. Still, the film grows on you, leading the charge from a deep place of depression to something akin to redemption, or at least self-forgiveness. (Alex De Vore) Violet Crown, R, 114 min.

+ DINOS ARE OBJECTIVELY AWESOME - JUST A STRAIGHT-UP BAD MOVIE
When Laura Dern and Sam Neil craned their necks to behold a wandering pack of brontosauruses in the original Jurassic Park 25 years ago, the music swelled, the emotions bubbled and audiences were filled with a deep sense of awe. When Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard run afoul of whatever dinosaurs happen their way in the franchise’s newest entry, it is painfully obvious that this series needs to go extinct. Welcome to Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, a tired and way-too-long slog from JA Bayona, director of the excellent 2007 horror film The Orphanage. This bad boy doesn’t even register on the dumb summer popcorn flick scale thanks to its retreading of old material disguised as homage, parallel utter lack of acting and story quality, and heavy-handed performances from everyone throughout. When last we left our heroes, they’d escaped yet another dino theme park gone awry and now, just like in the third Jurassic Park (that’s the one where Sam Neil goes back to the island for some reason), they must return on some misguided animal rights mission because—get this—turns out there was a volcano there the whole time and it’s active suddenly and nobody wants the dinos to die. Again. Oof. But it turns out the guys behind the mercy mission are animal traffickers hired by yet another generation of ne’er-do-wells (plus BD Wong, again, for who-knows-why) who plan on getting rich through dino-cloning and genetic manipulation; people start getting eaten and our heroes must intervene or, like, more people gonna get eaten.
Pratt seems bored here as an animal behaviorist (yeah, right) and is not even allowed to do that rogue-ish smarm-charm for which he’s become known in better movies like Guardians of the Galaxy. Howard, meanwhile, brings no heat whatsoever to the role of a former exec now laboring under a nonprofit change of heart and trying to save animals because life is sacred or something. Other cast members exist, it’s just they matter so little that one almost wonders why they appear in the first place. Comic relief? Depth? If so, you’d never know it, and the script certainly isn’t doing them any favors, nor are the endless chase scenes, perilous moments of dino terror or beyond-silly narrative. With news of any Star Wars spinoffs biting the dust this week due to low box office numbers, we can only hope moviegoers enact a similar takedown of the Jurassic movies. Steven Spielberg captured something special with his first adaptation of the Michel Crichton universe all those years ago. Today’s attempts feel stale and business-like, the sort of product churned out to take advantage of nostalgia and a slap in the face of everyone who ever felt a sense of wonder for the idea of prehistoric beasts. Boo. Muck. Filth. Slime. Rubbish. Boo. (ADV) Regal, Violet Crown, PG-13, 128 min.

He has done well in playgroups and has been helpful in showing his younger friends their way around the shelter. One of our longtime volunteers mentioned to us that “Leonardo is a gentle giant! He walks very gently on leash and is happy to sit by your side to be petted. Leonardo sits on command and take treats gently.” He also took a field trip downtown where he loved meeting new people, kids and dogs of all sizes! As always, if you have another dog at home you’re more than welcome to bring them in for a Meet n’ Greet with this gentleman.

MIND BODY SPIRIT ACUPUNCTURE Rob Brezsny
Week of August 8th
ARIES (March 21-April 19): I predict that August will be a Golden Age for you. That’s mostly very good. Golden opportunities will arise, and you’ll come into possession of lead that can be transmuted into gold. But it’s also important to be prudent about your dealings with gold. Consider the fable of the golden goose. The bird’s owner grew impatient because it laid only one gold egg per day; he foolishly slaughtered his prize animal to get all the gold immediately. That didn’t work out well. Or consider the fact that to the ancient Aztecs, the word teocuitlatl referred to gold, even though its literally translation was “excrement of the gods.” Moral of the story: If handled with care and integrity, gold can be a blessing.
sleep per night, and a steady stream of soulful conversations? No. Not really. In the coming days, life will be a good ride for you even if you fail to procure those indulgences. But here are further questions and answers: Do you deserve the orchids, elixirs, and the rest? My answer is yes, definitely. And would the arrival of these delights spur you to come up with imaginative solutions to your top two riddles? I’m pretty sure it would. So I conclude this horoscope by recommending that you do indeed arrange to revel in your equivalent of the delights I named.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Taurus socialite Stephen Tennant (1906-1987) was such an interesting luminary that three major novelists created fictional characters modeled after him. As a boy, when he was asked what he’d like to be when he grew up, he replied, “I want to be a great beauty.” I’d love to hear those words spill out of your mouth, Taurus. What? You say you’re already all grown up? I doubt it. In my opinion, you’ve still got a lot of stretching and expansion and transformation to accomplish during the coming decades. So yes: I hope you can find it in your wild heart to proclaim, “When I grow up, I want to be a great beauty.” (P.S. Your ability to become increasingly beautiful will be at a peak during the next fourteen months.)
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): “Don’t try to steer the river,” writes Deepak Chopra. Most of the time, I agree with that idea. It’s arrogant to think that we have the power to control the forces of nature or the flow of destiny or the song of creation. Our goal should be to get an intuitive read on the crazy-making miracle of life, and adapt ourselves ingeniously to its ever-shifting patterns and rhythms. But wait! Set aside everything I just said. An exception to the usual rule has arrived. Sometimes, when your personal power is extra flexible and robust — like now, for you — you may indeed be able to steer the river a bit.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): “Dear Astrologer: Recently I’ve been weirdly obsessed with wondering how to increase my levels of generosity and compassion. Not just because I know it’s the right thing to do, but also because I know it will make me healthy and honest and unflappable. Do you have any sage advice? -Ambitious Sagittarius.” Dear Ambitious: I’ve noticed GEMINI (May 21-June 20): “Manage with bread and butter until God sends the honey,” advises a Moroccan that many Sagittarians are feeling an unprecedented curiosity about how to enhance their lives by boosting proverb. Let’s analyze how this advice might apply to you. First thing I want to know is, have you been man- the benevolence they express. Here’s a tip from astrologer Chani Nicholas: “Source your sense of self from your aging well with bread and butter? Have you refrained integrity in every interaction.” Here’s another tip from from whining about your simple provisions, resting Anais Nin: “The worse the state of the world grows, the content and grateful? If you haven’t, I doubt that any honey will arrive, ether from God or any other source. more intensely I try for inner perfection and power. I fight for a small world of humanity and tenderness.” But if you have been celebrating your modest gifts, feeling free of greed and displeasure, then I expect at CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Time does not necessarily least some honey will show up soon. heal all wounds. If you wait around passively, hoping that the mere passage of months will magically fix your twists and CANCER (June 21-July 22): Don’t worry your beautiful head about praying to the gods of luck and fate. I’ll take smooth out your tweaks, you’re shirking your responsibility. care of that for you. Your job is to propitiate the gods of The truth is, you need to be fully engaged in the process. You’ve got to feel deeply and think hard about how to diminfluid discipline and hard but smart work. To win the favor of these divine helpers, act on the assumption that ish your pain, and then take practical action when your wisyou now have the power and the right to ask for more of dom shows you what will actually work. Now is an excellent their assistance than you have before. Proceed with the time to upgrade your commitment to this sacred quest. understanding that they are willing to provide you with AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): The questions you’ve been the stamina, persistence, and attention to detail you will asking aren’t bad or wrong. But they’re not exactly releneed to accomplish your next breakthrough. vant or helpful, either. That’s why the answers you’ve LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): “Sometimes, I feel the past and been receiving aren’t of maximum use. Try these questions instead. 1. What experience or information would the future pressing so hard on either side that there’s no room for the present at all.” A character named Julia you need to heal your divided sense of loyalty? 2. How says that in Evelyn Waugh’s novel Brideshead Revisited. can you attract an influence that would motivate you to make changes you can’t quite accomplish under your own I bring it to your attention as an inspiring irritant, as a prod to get you motivated. I hope it will mobilize you to power? 3. Can you ignore or even dismiss the 95 percent rise up and refuse to allow your past and your future to of your fear that’s imaginary so you’ll be able to focus on the five percent that’s truly worth meditating on? 4. If I press so hard on either side that there’s no room for assured you that you have the intelligence to beautify an the present. It’s a favorable time for you to fully claim ugly part of your world, how would you begin? the glory of being right here, right now. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): I’m not an ascetic who believes all our valuable lessons emerge from suffering. Nor am I a pop-nihilist who sneers at pretty flowers, smiling children, and sunny days. On the contrary: I’m devoted to the hypothesis that life is usually at least 51 percent wonderful. But I dance the rain dance when there’s an emotional drought in my personal life, and I dance the pain dance when it’s time to deal with difficulties I’ve ignored. How about you, Virgo? I suspect that now is one of those times when you need to have compassionate heart-to-heart conversations with your fears, struggles, and aches.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): A scuffle you’ve been waging turns out to be the wrong scuffle. It has distracted you from giving your full attention to a more winnable and worthwhile tussle. My advice? Don’t waste energy feeling remorse about the energy you’ve wasted. In fact, be grateful for the training you’ve received. The skills you’ve been honing while wrestling with the misleading complication will serve you well when you switch your focus to the more important issue. So are you ready to shift gears? Start mobilizing your crusade to engage with the more winnable and worthwhile tussle.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Do you absolutely need orchids, sweet elixirs, dark chocolate, alluring new music, dances on soft grass, sensual massages, nine hours of
