ob, I know you follow social issues closely. I heard that Santa Fe Mayor Javier Gonzales was on Fox News, defending sanctimonious cities. What’s up with that? No, not sanctimonious. You’re thinking of so-called “sanctuary cities.” Santa Fe is one of them, and our mayor was in the national spotlight, being interviewed by Fox News’ Megyn Kelly. She introduced him as “the mayor of Santa Fe, California.” She did not. Yes, she did. She had a good excuse, though. She said, “It’s been that kind of a day.” Journalists are allowed to use that as a defense when we really mean we could use a drink. So what about these sanctuary cities? They are self-proclaimed safe havens where local police refuse to honor most requests by the federal government to detain immigrants for possible deportation. Are there other sanctuary cities I might be familiar with? Have you heard of New York, Los Angeles or Washington, DC? Some politicians portray sanctuary cities as lawless hideouts, beyond the reach of justice. They are suddenly in the news because a certain president-elect has threatened to withhold federal funding from them. Can he do that? It’s not clear. To me, it’s sort of like Tony Soprano coming into your business with his thugs, and saying, “This is a nice candy store you have here. It would be a shame if something happened to it.” That’s called extortion.
So you think an illegal immigrant should just be able to rob an Allsup’s with a bazooka and not get arrested? No. If a person commits a serious crime, the question of whether he is here legally becomes very relevant. But if he’s stopped because he changed lanes without signaling, it isn’t. How would you like to constantly have to prove you belong here? What was the reaction to the mayor’s position? Many of the comments on his Facebook page were horrific. One person said, “They should deport this guy to MEXICO for being UGLY and Stupid.” That bonehead thinks our mayor, who was born in Santa Fe and is the son of a former mayor, should be deported to Mexico. And don’t even get me started on why this idiot thinks the word stupid needs to be capitalized. What’s the worst comment you saw about the mayor’s defense of sanctuary cities? It’s pretty fricking scary. Can you handle it?
Are you looking for a new provider?
Sure. I’ve been to the Rio Grande Gorge, and I’ve even eaten at random food trucks. One commenter said, “Trump will punish you and Santa Fe for this, thanks a lot for raising our profile for retaliation.” So there’s someone so afraid of the vindictiveness of a man who isn’t even president yet, he thinks we should hide in the dark and do nothing to draw attention to ourselves.
Changing insurances?
Yikes. Now you’re really scarin’ me, Bob. I’m glad. As Megyn says, it’s been that kind of a day. Robert Basler’s humor column runs twice monthly in SFR. Email the author: bluecorn@sfreporter.com

NEWS “The poor girl sat in jail for a long time,” says Doug Perrin, one of the family’s attorneys. The lawsuit claims the Santa Fe Police Department and two unnamed officials “breached their duty to properly train and supervise” Dimas and Wakefield. The complaint also names the two individual officers for acting “with deliberate indifference” to Vasquez’ civil rights, under the Fourth, Eighth and 14th Amendments. “Despite knowledge of her medical condition requiring treatment, Officers Dimas and Wakefield did not provide medical treatment, took no steps to secure medical treatment and did not transport Ms. Vasquez to the hospital for medical clearance before incarceration,” the lawsuit states. Both Dimas and Wakefield still work for the department and are in good standing, according to police spokesman Greg Gurulé. The city attorney’s office did not respond to an inquiry about the case. The pending US District Court lawsuit against the city follows a $400,000 settlement agreement entered in April between Vasquez’ family and Santa Fe County, the entity that operates the jail. A tort claims notice alleged a jail supervisor failed to provide medical attention to Vasquez before she became unresponsive. Her death occurred amid a rash of deaths during or after stays at county-run correctional facilities. Months before, 17-year-old Desiree Gonzales overdosed at the Youth Development Program, the juvenile lockup, shortly after being discharged from Christus St. Vincent. An ongoing federal civil rights lawsuit says jail administrators booked Gonzales despite her showing signs of withdrawal, and that medical staff ignored her as she struggled to breathe. The lawsuit also claims the hospital acted negligently by discharging the teen too early. Another inmate, Thomas Pederson, died of heart complications last year at the adult jail three days after he was arrested for driving with a blood alcohol level six times the legal limit.
From Jail to Grave Woman’s death after detention prompts civil rights lawsuit BY STEVE N H SI E H steven@ s fre p o r te r.co m

reanna Vasquez died of spinal meningitis at Christus St. Vincent Regional Medical Center on November 11, 2014, two days after becoming unresponsive at the county jail. The Santa Fe woman was 22. Now, Vasquez’ family is suing the city Police Department for her death, saying officers who arrested her on a warrant should have taken her to the hospital before booking her at the Adult Detention Center. According to the civil rights lawsuit filed last month, Vasquez’ mother warned officers that her daughter had just been released from the hospital the night before they arrested her for violating probation on misdemeanor charges. Santa Fe police officers Michael Dimas and Lukas Wakefield executed a warrant at 8:42 am at Vasquez’s home. At the time of her arrest, Vasquez showed obvious signs of illness, according to the lawsuit. She was still wearing her hospital bracelet. Before taking Vasquez to jail, the two officers assured her family that guards would safely monitor Vasquez until her release, according to the lawsuit. Her bond was set at $2,360.

t’s a crisp, late fall morning in Santa Fe. Larry Rasmussen, a Lutheran lay minister, and I sit side-by-side at his kitchen table. Sometimes we look at one another. But mostly we both look out the picture window. The sky is an iconic cerulean blue, and songbirds flit about the backyard: Birdfeeder to fence post to birdfeeder and hop, hop, around and around again. More than a decade ago, Rasmussen retired from New York City’s Union Theological Seminary. He and his wife now live off Old Pecos Trail. From this window, they can watch a forest in transition. Nowadays, that’s how we talk about trees that are dying. Trees that smell like vanilla when you press your face close in warm sunlight. Trees whose sticks and split trunks have been fed for generations into cooking fires and wood stoves. The juniper and piñon wood smoke that wafts through cities and towns today is the same that’s filled the air since Pueblo people settled along the Rio Grande centuries ago. As the world keeps warming, not all those species will survive. Scientists keep saying this, and even driveby tourists can see the waves of young oak trees spreading across burned slopes that conifers once dominated. I can’t help but wonder how differently the land will smell when our children’s children inhale; I can’t help but wonder if they’ll ache for something they don’t know is missing.
“What do you do with your grief? What do you do with your loss?” Rasmussen asks. “What do we do with species going extinct? What do we do with nude mountains?” We both look out the window again. He’s talking about a wildfire that ripped through the Jemez Mountains a few years earlier. When the fire ignited on a Sunday in late June, a massive cloud erupted like a thunderhead into the sky above the mountains. Visible more than 50 miles away, that trickster cloud fooled me into thinking the summer’s monsoon season had arrived. In an Albuquerque driveway, my young daughter and I looked north and cheered for the blessing of rain in the dry mountains. I was wrong. Rather, there was a fire burning so hot that it had created its own weather above the mountains. When heat rises so fast that winds can’t push the air away, wildfires form a cloud—what’s called a pyrocumulous cloud. From a distance these sometimes look like mushroom clouds. And they put firefighters, and anyone nearby, in danger. If the columns collapse, the falling air hits the ground and then spreads wildly, pushing the fire in new directions. Through their Santa Fe kitchen window, Rasmussen and his wife, Nyla, watched the mountains burn. At night, the hulk of the mountains—normally just a crouching dark blankness swallowing the pinpoints of stars—flamed orange.

LEFT: Scientists say southwestern pine forests will disappear by 2100. Hotter, larger wildfires are partly to blame. RIGHT: Taxidermied threatened Mexican spotted owls lie next to their extinct cousins in the Museum of Southwestern Biology at the University of New Mexico.
It’s not that Southwestern forests aren’t supposed to burn. But this fire was different. In its first 14 hours, the Las Conchas fire burned through about one acre a second. Close your eyes and count to 10. During that time, flames devoured 10 acres. Think of the ponderosa pines and Steller’s jay nests, fox burrows and salamanders obliterated in the time it takes to draw and exhale two breaths. All told, the fire burned 156,000 acres the summer of 2011. That was the state’s largest wildfire in recorded history. Until the next year when the Whitewater-Badly Fire burned nearly twice that amount, 297,000 acres, of the Gila National Forest. In our warmer world, ponderosa pine stands don’t necessarily come back. Instead, they give way to Gambel oak and New Mexico locust. Piñon and juniper trees die off, their hard carcasses thronged by wavy leaf oak and mountain mahogany. Scientists say Southwestern pine forests will disappear by 2100, and that half the conifers in the Northern Hemisphere will have died by then. How do we mourn nude mountains? At my father’s funeral more than three years ago, I realized how much I missed those ceremonies we wrap ourselves in during times of grief or confusion. CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

At the time, I was 39 years old and had lived more than 2,000 miles from my parents for nearly 20 years. But I’d never been to a funeral without my father. I’d never watched the casket enter a church or sat through a eulogy without placing my hand inside his. Even if we’d argued on our way to the church, I’d position myself next to him during the service, then hang around him and his pals—fellow cops, oftentimes—during the meal afterwards. They’d stand around outside. Tug loose their ties and insult one another. Another ritual. Is there a way to mourn a river, too? Two decades ago, two US Fish and Wildlife Service biologists sat behind their office in Albuquerque. Surrounded by boats, trailers, tanks, waders, and all the accoutrements of fisheries biologists, they realized the fate of an entire species rested with them. Historically, the silvery minnow had lived throughout the Rio Grande and its tributary, the Pecos River. About 2,400 miles of habitat. By the time it was protected under the Endangered Species Act, the minnow survived only in a 174-mile stretch of the Rio Grande. Like many species, the minnow’s demise was linked to human cleverness. In the 20th century, people had tamed, tapped, and engineered the Pecos and the Rio Grande to prevent flooding and deliver water. Their work was so effective that watersheds and riverbeds bowed before miraculous engineering feats. Ecosystems changed. Species disappeared. Feeling the tug of moral responsibility for an entire species, the two men convinced their bosses to let them try something different. They started collecting eggs from the river and then raising the fish in a hatchery. They did that because New Mexico’s largest river could no longer keep a two-inch long fish from going extinct. Today, the river still dries. And the wild fish population declines. What do you do with your grief? At the end of my father’s wake, no one rushes me. Friends and family and police officers look away. They’re ready to walk with the casket from the wake to the church. But I’m not ready to leave the casket. Not ready for the lid to seal shut. I kneel, pressing my head
and mouth that look like mine are surely gone. His hand must be desiccated by now. I keep the rifle shells in a wooden box. But I still don’t know where to put my grief.
IS THERE A WAY TO MOURN A RIVER, TOO? against the cool metal, and then recoiling at the smell of rot and chemicals. By the time the pallbearers carry the flag-draped coffin up the steps and into the church, I’ve lost track of whether he’s head or feet first. Incense. Words. Stained glass windows and gold on the altar. From the church’s front pew, I stumble to the altar in heels and a dark-colored dress, then choke through a reading. At the cemetery, uniformed men and women fire the requisite number of rifle shots. Someone hands my mother the folded American flag. The ancient driver of the hearse blows into a trumpet. In the back of the limousine, I hold my brother’s hand. For months afterwards, I wonder about decomposition. I imagine that the blue eyes I passed along to my daughter no longer exist within his face. The lips
Back in Albuquerque, I visit with a biology professor at the Museum of Southwestern Biology at the University of New Mexico. I’m curious about the Latin American hummingbirds whose evolution he studies. After talk of jungle mountains, lungs and tiny hearts, Christopher Witt walks me to the back of the museum and slides open a wide, shallow drawer. There are passenger pigeons, Carolina parakeets, Ivory-billed woodpeckers, dusky seaside sparrows and Eskimo curlew. They have no descendants somewhere, preening or molting, blinking their eyes against the rain or singing a morning song. These species are all extinct. Another drawer holds a tray of threatened Mexican spotted owls, their downy white eyelids closed. There are also boxes of Northern aplomado falcons, which were nearly extirpated from the United States by the 1950s. I peer at the tag tied to one falcon’s foot: “Falco Femoralis Septentrionalis.

Mexico.” Collected by F Stephens on August 8, 1875. My eyes water and I look down in shame. I jot notes I can’t actually read. How do you mourn a drawer full of birds?
TOP: The Rio Grande runs dry every year when agricultural irrigators divert water. LEFT: The silvery minnow loses habitat every year. BELOW: A door has opened on a new world that awaits our children.
My father has been dead two years when I return to Connecticut for three summer weeks. After living for almost 20 years in the Southwest, I scoff at the green. The trees crowd out my necessary horizon; I anticipate ticks. But I love getting to know my cousin’s children. I’m secretly pleased when my daughter, brazen like I never was, mouths off to me, then runs into the backyard with her kin. In the woods beyond my mother’s house, my childhood fort is gone. It’s not that someone scattered the brush and stones and pieces of metal I’d collected and piled. The hillside is gone. More than a decade ago, a developer blasted the mica-flecked bedrock. When he ran out of money, he abandoned the subdivision. And a backhoe. Now, water fills empty foundations. There are cattails and frogs that disappear in a croaky ripple. An old Christmas tree lies across the road; televisions and suitcases flank it. I poke assorted weird shit with a stick. Beyond the mess, the forest is thicker than it was decades ago. There are foxes and turkeys, deer and species of birds I don’t remember seeing when I ran around the woods as a kid, tracing stone walls, forever hopeful I’d discover a gateway into another world. That other world might be magical, it might be sinister. Either way, I was ready, pocket knife filched from my dad’s collection. During one of those last summer nights in Connecticut, I stare up at the stars around the edges of the trees and hear a sound that’s familiar to me only from the West. Coyotes. At first I think I’m dreaming. I hold my breath and listen. The syncopated stutters carry across the forest from a hillslope away. Past the road cut and powerlines. When I first started writing about climate change, maybe a decade ago, a scientist told me I shouldn’t worry for the planet. It’s humans who will suffer, he said. The Earth will remain. Species will blink out, evolve, or emerge. Ecosystems will shift. The same geological processes that have been churning the Earth for eons will still shape tomorrow’s landscapes. The selfish grief I felt over losing my father, and any chance he and I had for understanding one another, has dissipated. In its place, a fiercer love has emerged. For my daughter and my mother. My brother and his family; dear friends and ready allies. For the world we still have. Looking back, I realize that I twisted nostalgia and hope into inaction and despair. Perhaps healing requires grief and mourning. But both those emotions seem like indulgences. And there’s no time for that. So instead, I wonder about the coming world. Which trees will grow, which birds will have survived. The meaning of shifting cloud formations. I wonder what the world will smell like. Because now, even though it’s been decades since I stopped looking for that gateway in earnest, the door to that new world has opened. And there’s no going back. Laura Paskus is an independent journalist based in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Earlier this year, she completed a year-long reporting project on climate change for New Mexico In Depth.

Nonprofit launches to expand the reach and benefits of climbing to underserved communities
BY EL IZABE TH M I LLE R eli zab et h @ s fre p o r te r.co m
A
manda Burkybile saw first in her children that rock climbing wasn’t just a way to burn some energy, but that it taught them to focus, set goals and work hard, even to communicate—all in ways that few activities inspire. “You can see immediately how kids are drawn to climbing—they’re little monkeys,” she says. “They want to climb on everything, so if you can give it to them in a venue where it’s actually appropriate and teach them how to be safe about it, and address their risk-taking in a positive way … you can just see them flourish.” On a Wednesday afternoon, she gently coaxes her 3-year-old daughter as she stretches her fingers from one plastic hold to the next in the new building for the Santa Fe Climbing Center (3008 Cielo Court, 986-8944), which Burkybile’s husband, Andre Wiltenburg, owns. Their 3-year-old is one of about 10 kids at the gym, lining up to for a belay from their adult coaches on the climbing wall and swiftly ascending a free-standing boulder about 8 feet tall. “I like it because I can have fun,” says 7-year-old Zoey Davis, who says she started climbing when she was 4 and now climbs with the gym’s kids program once a week. “I can hang out with friends, and make new friends.” Her coach, Rich Strang, helps her tie the rope to her harness, and she turns and clambers up a route with a small overhang. “It’s a good sport for them—it keeps them busy,” Strang says. “It gives them good problem-solving and discipline to figure out the move and fight fears.” These kids are all part of preschool climbing classes and recreational climbing teams, but for years, Burkybile and Wiltenburg have been talking about how to reach people who might not immediately think to try climbing. With the new facility open, now seemed as good a time as any for Burkybile to launch Elevate Santa Fe, a nonprofit dedicated to increasing and diversifying the opportunities for people to participate in rock climbing. “We’re trying to make it reality for some people who would like the opportunity but would not necessarily be able to get there or afford it on their own,” she says.
ELIZABETH MILLER
Climbing Higher
THE ENTHUSIAST
The goal isn’t to recruit lifelong climbers as much as it is to spark curiosity and exploration. “Rock climbing is just the vehicle to deliver the opportunities to people and to provide encouragement, to show people they can do things that maybe they didn’t think they could do before,” she says. “It’s more about saying, ‘Try this. You might like it,’ and if this isn’t your thing, maybe you have the courage to try something else that you’re thinking about.” Kids are the first group they aim to work with, though veterans and adaptive athletes are on the list as well. They’re aiming to start a three-week-long pilot program early next year for elementary school kids. A former teacher herself, Burkybile’s goal is to take care of all the logistics and the expense, so teachers only need to make themselves and their students’ time available. Gear and instructor time, among other expenses, costs about $50 per student, so she’s fundraising to provide these free for students. Research shows that, beyond the health benefits that can alleviate childhood obesity and diabetes, regular physical activity reduces anxiety and depression for children, and has been correlated to better concentration in the short term and improved skills in mathematics, reading and writing. They’re starting with third-graders in part because that’s the age at which standardized testing begins to ramp up; this program, Burkybile contends, offers not just a different focus, but a means to progress mentally, physically and socially. “It’s not a multiple choice test measuring their worth based on their score on this thing graded by a computer,” she says. “It’s just a whole other way of encouraging kids to grow and showing them that you can’t always see your growth on a piece of paper. Sometimes it’s in how you feel.” In climbing, sometimes that can mean one more hold, or just getting off the ground for the first time; each step, each gain, shows they’re getting better, and getting stronger, and that now is not the time to give up.

QUEER AS FILM The Santa Fe Film Festival (SFFF)—which just so happens to be running as we speak—presents eight micro-documentaries from indie filmmakers that explore the experiences of LGBTQ people from around the world in Queer Lives. The shorts showcase woes and wins in the day-to-day for gay men, lesbians, and those who identify as trans or gender non-conforming, as well as people of color. “These are ordinary LGBTQ citizens—by ordinary, I mean, not celebrities,” says SFFF programmer Aaron Leventman. “There are many different pockets of queer communities that we don’t think of.” And we need to.

The Santa Fe Film Festival gets rolling tonight throughout the history of film. (That’s on Wednesday evening at Gerard Vachez Gallery, 418 Montezuma Ave.) Basically, there’s something for everyone—even people who hear the term “film festival” and picture some snooty, artsy affair accessible only to film snobs and jerks in top hats. “One of the challenges we’ve had is to create programs that are diverse enough so that everybody has something that’s going to fit their individual cinematic tastes,” Henrich adds. Nearly 80 percent of the filmmakers behind the movies will be on hand as well to discuss their works, and individual screenings are completely affordable. Flip to page 31 for some reviews of films showing during the fest. The five days kick off with a party at Cowgirl tonight (9 pm, $10. 319 S. Guadalupe St.) featuring live music from Golden General and Felecia Ford. (Alex De Vore) SANTA FE INDEPENDENT FILM FESTIVAL Wednesday-Sunday, Dec. 7-11. $10-$299.

Romance is alive on the two-lane highways that meander through the rolling hills and empty deserts of America. There is nothing so satisfying as taking off on the open road, and part of that nostalgic glory lives in the vintage paint and light bulbs of motel signs. Photographer Steve Fitch banks on your attachment to the iconography of Americana in his solo exhibit, American Motel Signs, 1980-2008. Featuring photographs taken around the country, each image includes regional differences (like palm trees or tall cacti) that orient the viewer in the space of our vast nation.

Though we have access to numerous film festivals here in Santa Fe, two big ones stand out above the rest. And with the Independent Film Festival behind us (and quite a success from what we hear), it’s time to gear up for the original Santa Fe Film Festival (SFFF), now entering its 16th year. For five solid days, SFFF will take over the Jean Cocteau Cinema, The Screen at Santa Fe University of Art & Design and the Center For Contemporary Arts’ Cinematheque to screen well over 150 full-length, short, indie and documentary films created all over the globe and representing all styles and genres. “One thing I wanted to add to the fest this year was a line of actionsport films,” creative director Rich Henrich tells SFR. “We’ve also got a spotlight on Latin American films and documentaries, we’ve got Native films, and we also tried to include programming that was maybe a little lighter … like comedies. … We’re continuing that line of showing top-tier films.” SFFF also boasts a number of parties, a Canyon Road arts crawl led by a mariachi band, numerous panels and workshops and an art opening from artist Grant Kosh of lifelike airbrush portraits featuring famous faces from

BOOK ‘EM Most people don’t immediately click to the concept of book clubs when they picture an afternoon visit to the Santa Fe Botanical Garden, but that’s going to change thanks to Adult Education Coordinator Shawna Jones. “We actually have this super-awesome library and the biggest collection of botanical books in Santa Fe,” Jones says. ”And it’s not just going to be books about how to garden.” The current title up for discussion is Simon Winchester’s The Map That Changed the World, the real-life story of an 18th-century canal digger who discovered how to chart the innards of the earth. Woah, right? Right. (ADV) Botanical Book Club: 1 pm Tuesday Dec. 13. Free. Santa Fe Botanical Garden office, 715 Camino Lejo, 471-9103.

DIY Till We Die In defense of Ghost Ship and the ethics of DIY BY ALEX DE VORE a l e x @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
B
y now most people have heard about the tragic fire that tore through Oakland, California live/art space, Ghost Ship, and the terrible deaths that now number well over 30. We felt it all the way in Santa Fe, where people frantically took to social media in search of friends and as contemporaries and loved ones in the Bay Area checked themselves in “safe” on Facebook. By the time the weekend was over, news that Chelsea Faith Dolan, a musician known as Cherushii and collaborator on the soundtrack for Meow Wolf’s House of Eternal Return, was among those who died. Multiply connections like this 36 times over, and you get a slim idea of how the situation has rocked the country. Since then, even a cursory glance at media coverage shows a veritable onslaught of blame pieces, finger-pointing tales of community complaints levied against the space in the past, click-baity “Oh, the humanity!” articles and heartless social media posts about how these people, who did technically live at and operate Ghost Ship illegally, shouldn’t have been there in the first place, which somehow means they deserved to die. Alameda County District Attorney Nancy O’Malley has even noted to the press that manslaughter or murder charges may be pressed against the building’s lessee, Derick Ion Almena. The cause of the fire hasn’t even been discovered yet, but it seems like everyone has some statement to make about the shape of renting spaces or events promotion or culture or so forth, most of which fall into a category of extreme judgment. Fuck that. “There are a lot of places around the world that operate that way and they’re fine; I think this was just a freak accident,” says Meow Wolf CEO Vince Kadlubek. “We definitely looked a lot like [Ghost Ship] back when we were on Hopewell Street, and this will probably bring attention to DIY scenes around the world. This could be something that brings that a lot of criticism, but what we want is to be supportive right now.” Kadlubek says Meow Wolf is outfitted with sprinkler heads in every room, and that materials used in the permanent portions of the exhibit had to be fireproofed before installation. Additionally, he says, Meow Wolf’s newer location in the Siler Road area generally caps attendees well before it hits the maximum occupancy set by the city, and that they were already in the process of creating a fund that could provide resources to spaces similar to Ghost Ship. “It’s unfortunate that some places don’t have the funding for people to live and work in creative ways but to also have a safety net,” Kadlubek says. We’ve reached a critical juncture in terms of how we can discover and ingest culture, and though spaces like Ghost Ship are hardly new, they represent an
The tragedy at Ghost Ship could have happened to any of us, and the larger question we should be asking is why artists and musicians are often forced into such terrible and unsafe conditions in the pursuit of cultural enrichment.
important shift in cultural offerings aimed at those who would shirk the status quo. The internet screams at us daily from multiple devices, the big-name musicians and DJs charge exorbitant prices, the ticketing outlets bleed us dry with absurd hidden fees and the engorged mainstream arts systems would have us believe that only they have the product we want and that it exists solely at the end of their marketing rainbow. But, as has always been the way, it isn’t the mainstream-ification of arts and music that steers our shared cultural zeitgeist, but the smaller spaces—the warehouses and storage units, the all-ages venues hidden away in homes or little out-of-the-way hovels—run by people who do it for love that have proven most vital. No amount of blame game politicking should detract from what had previously been accomplished by Ghost Ship or what will be accomplished at other such spaces all over the globe. We can even dispel some of the harsh reactive bullshit found online if we consider events like the 2003 Station nightclub fire in Rhode Island, during which poor pyrotechnics during a show with hard rock band Great White cost 100 people their lives and injured over 100 more—all in an apparently upto-code venue. Furthermore, the Bay Area housing crisis all but shoehorns renters into situations with multiple roommates, cramming them into unsafe or ancient buildings, run-down tenements, warehouses like Ghost Ship or, even worse, forces them to leave altogether. This compounds for struggling artists, many of whom don’t fit the societal expectations of gainful employment. Santa Fe should be especially cautious in how it handles this information as well, because the fact is,
it could have been any one of us. How many times have art shows opened or bands played in unofficial DIY spaces, admittedly smaller, but ultimately not much different from Ghost Ship? (We’ve chosen not to name most of these places because we’re sure they’re currently on-edge and could potentially face retaliation at the moment.) Without them, the art and music we love so much would have scant few options, symptomatic of a larger overall trend of “business first, artists last.” “If we get shut down, we just learn from it, move forth and put precautions in place,” David AhernSeronde tells SFR. Ahern-Seronde is a local musician and one of the founders of The Cave (formerly Dave Cave), a live/work space on the Southside that hosts metal shows. He is not worried about the city targeting The Cave or its brethren. “It’s like comparing apples and oranges. … Oakland is awesome, but a much larger city,” he says. Regardless, it is patently irresponsible and borderline cruel to assign blame to rave culture, party culture or the ethos of DIY arts. The dust has yet to settle and people have lost their lives. Numerous crowdfunding accounts have been set up in the aftermath (such as gofundme.com/ghost-ship-fire-residents-support), and the close-knit artistic community found in the Bay Area is still reeling. Do what you can as citizens of the arts and do not be deterred in your ongoing quest to create arts and music for those who don’t identify with the mainstream. Some of us have had our lives saved by venues just like Ghost Ship, and while there is no denying this tragedy, a life without such spaces and the people who build them is a life not worth living.

Fashion and recycling join forces to resurrect and inspire MARIA EGOLF-ROMERO m a r i a @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
T
he Recycle Santa Fe Arts Festival turned 18 this year, and with it came a huge assortment of fine arts created from discarded materials. A particular highlight each year is the Trash Fashion and Costume Contest, which showcases wearable recycled arts on the catwalk in a juried show (this year it was held on Dec. 2). Victorious designs are then featured in an exhibit at Winterowd Fine Art one week later at an exhibit titled Creme de la Creme. When an SFR staffer heard about the event, she asked, “Are they going to actually be cool clothes, or, like, a bunch of old bottle caps?” This is probably close to what many of you are now thinking. It’s hard to hear “recycled” and not think “trash,” but that is something the festival’s coordinator Sarah Pierpont wants to change. “I really think it’s one of those things that you have to come and see to believe,” she says. “You look at the art and think, ‘I’d like to have that in my living room,’ and only when you look closer do you realize it’s made of discarded materials.” Artists working in this medium are the embodiment of the age-old adage about one man’s trash being another man’s treasure. “Unfortunately, our society has so many things that get thrown away or recycled or that are no longer wanted,” Pierpont tells SFR, “and these artists have an eye for that.” One such artist recently inherited a heap of treasure in the form of a junkyard; others search roadsides and garbage bins for broken coffee mugs or discarded sheet metal. Participating artists work in an array of mediums, resurrecting things like car door handles as intricate figures of birds, or turning discarded books into 3D sculptural figures. “It can be welding, it can be sewing or painting; a fine art painter may paint on old ceiling tiles or things from demolition waste,” Pierpont notes. “There’s just no limit, really.”
This is how fashion blends particularly well with recycled art. As the second-most pollutive industry on the planet (right behind oil), fashion needs to turn an eye toward environmental issues. “You want Designer Liza to be conscientious of where materials come Doyle created from, and textiles can have a pretty big social this dress from and environmental impact,” Pierpont cauitems discovtions. “So, greening the idea of fashion and ered at The Santa Fe New textiles is a great part of recycled art.” Mexican printThis year, one contestant created a gown ing press such made completely from used postage stamps. as cardboard Another designed a sundress from the heavy and ripped newspaper. cardboard that covers rolls of newsprint. Someone even used torn umbrellas to fashion a garment. “There’s a lot of cool fabrics,” Pierpont says, “if you kind of just open your eyes to it.” Liza Doyle, a senior at Santa Fe Prep, has won the competition several times and her previous designs have graced the festival’s runway since she was 6 years old. This is her 11th time designing for the show, and she says her lifelong participation has molded her into the artist she is today. “My focused interest in the arts really came from this show,” Doyle says. “Every year I had this event to look forward to, and it kept me thinking about designing all year long.” Doyle also paints, draws and regularly designs her own non-recycled garments, yet she has an affinity for salvaged fashion. “I love that the materials are found and that they have been forgotten,” she says. “It gives you a chance to evaluate the story that each of those materials tells, and that really influences what kind of dress I make out of them.” As for Pierpont, she likes that the fashion show component attracts budding artists. “I think it’s especially great for young and emerging artists,” she says. “It can be a way to start. … They are interested in fashion, whether it’s designing stuff or putting things together—it can happen in a lot of different ways, and it may be their gateway drug to art.” CREME DE LA CREME 4-6:30 pm Friday, Dec. 9.

THE CALENDAR
I’m a 37-year-old gay man who just got out of an abusive relationship. We were together five years, moved to Portland together, got married three years ago, yada, yada, yada. He suffered a traumatic injury earlier this year, which led to PTSD, which led to a nervous breakdown, which led to our savings being depleted, which led him to leave me in October. He moved back to the other side of the country, and I’m broke and on my own in a strange city. I saw your dirty film festival when it played here, and it made me realize something: At my age, I should still be enjoying myself and evolving sexually. I was unhappy in my marriage for the last two years, but sexually I was unhappy for a long time. Recently, I had a decent one-night stand. It was a drunken, stoned hot mess, but it got the job done—and there was no guilt on my part, which to me signifies that it really is over with my ex. But I can’t help feeling like I’m starting over. Not just dating, but starting over with my sex life and my writing. My ex had me switch from LGBT media—which I am very good at—to copywriting, which sucks but is “steadier.” The point is: I want so much sexually, because I’ve been starved physically and psychologically, but I don’t know where to begin. I feel like my marriage eviscerated me sexually. Not just the sex part of it, but the parts of my homosexuality that felt important to my personality, not just my turn-ons. Help. -Grieving And Yearning Man Asking Nicely You’re not too old to enjoy yourself and evolve sexually, GAYMAN—you’re never too old to enjoy yourself or evolve, sexually or otherwise. But it takes time to bounce back after a committed LTR ends traumatically. So don’t rush yourself. But as soon as you can—sooner than perhaps it feels right—you’ll need to get out there. You’ll need to actively and intentionally reconnect to your homosexuality and the ways in which it shaped and continues to inform your personality, your perspective, and your joy. And now some random tips… I’m not being look-ist or body-fascist here—this isn’t about having Instagrammable abs or the best torso Grindr—but join a gym, GAYMAN. Or take up a sport that kicks your ass, cardio-wise. Forcing your body to outrun your brain is a good way to get back in touch with yourself physically, emotionally, and sexually. And exercising—again, I’m not talking abs here—is good for us. It’s a natural antidepressant. It gets blood pumping into our extremities. (Your dick is an extremity.) And it gets us out of our heads. It also creates a social space, if you do it regularly, where you can make friends and connections without booze or drugs or the scourge of dance music. If the gym isn’t for you, ride a bike. If biking isn’t for you, run. If running isn’t for you, walk. Just get your ass moving. Go volunteer somewhere, anywhere. Like someone or other once said, it’s hard to feel sorry for yourself when you’re making yourself useful. Go volunteer at the ACLU or Planned Parenthood, do some copywriting for an LGBT civil-rights organization, find out what orgs are working with immigrants in your community and ask them what kind of help they need. Please don’t succumb to meth or any of the other stupid drugs. Pot and alcohol—in moderation—aren’t stupid drugs. Reach out to friends you lost touch with over the last five years, apologize for letting these relationships go, and ask if they’d like to reconnect. Not all will, GAYMAN—some might be too angry to reconnect right now (you may hear from them later), some might not have any extra friendship bandwidth right now (ditto). Focus on friends who want to re-

connect, and don’t be bitter about friends who don’t. Masturbate. A lot. And don’t use porn every single time—try using your imagination, flip through the ol’ solodex. Be open to new experiences. Ask yourself where you’ve always wanted to go. Pick a big gay event you’ve always wanted to attend—gay days at Disneyland, International Mr. Leather in Chicago, the World Series of Beer Pong in Las Vegas—and start setting money aside so you’ll have that trip to look forward to. Good luck, GAYMAN. I’m a 44-year-old married gay male. I recently found out my 30-year-old husband has been sending dick pics to randoms on Grindr. He says he doesn’t remember who he sent pics to, or why, other than I was working late and he was drunk and pissed at me. I want to be mature about this, but I’m really hurt. We’ve been together more than four years and married six months. We have a closed, monogamous relationship. He says he’s been faithful, and I believe him. I’m struggling to trust him, however. Am I overreacting? -Help Understanding Relationship Trauma Which would you rather have, HURT: This particular husband (aka the man you married) or a husband (a generic husband) who wouldn’t, couldn’t, and didn’t send dick pics to randoms on Grindr? Given a choice between a perfect, flawless, blameless but imaginary husband and the imperfect, flawed, living, breathing husband you’ve got, which would you pick? Personally, I recommend choosing actualand-flawed husbands over perfect-and-imaginary ones. (I’m not telling you to do anything I haven’t done and that my own husband hasn’t done.) With that said, HURT, and hopefully with that choice made, your husband needs to drop the “I was mad at you for working late” bullshit and take responsibility for his actions. Drunk may have played a role, as booze is the great disinhibitor, but swapping dick pics isn’t something reasonable dick-having people do in response to run-of-the-mill annoyances. Your husband sent those pics because he enjoys showing off the goods. Your husband has an exhibitionistic streak. So what to do about it? You could forbid it, HURT, but creating a little space in our marriages for pleasures we may not share or fully understand—making accommodations instead of issuing threats—can make our marriages stronger, not weaker, less contentious and therefore less brittle. If swapping pics makes your husband feel desirable, and he plows that sexual energy into you… not only aren’t you being betrayed, you’re benefiting. If I were you, HURT, I would grant him this small zone of erotic autonomy. I’m a Canadian gay man, married eight years to a man with a thing for men spitting in his face. It’s a degradation thing (of course), and I would do it for him but it can’t be me. It can’t be someone he loves, someone who loves him, it has to be someone he doesn’t know, someone who regards him with contempt. He finds guys to do this for him on the hookup apps, and I don’t have a problem with it. I do have a problem leaning in for a kiss when his face reeks of some other man’s spit. He likes the “lingering scent”—I do not. He says I’m kink-shaming him when I recoil and ask him to go wash his face. He’s agreed to abide by your ruling, Dan. Should he wash his damn face? -Smelling Patooey Irks This Spouse You’ve accommodated your husband’s kink. He needs to return the favor and accommodate your nose. He should wash his damn face—and get his damn flu shot. SPEAKING OF HUMP!: My porny film festival’s 2017 tour kicks off in January. For cities, info, and tickets, go to humpfilmfest.com

Dec. 8 at 8 pm, $40, 528 Jose St., 699-4323) and that she sure would like you to come because she’s into the live show energy. Us too. (Alex De Vore) How did you get connected with Jono? I met him through John Popper of Blues Traveler. ... It was a few years back and I did some recording at his studio when it was at a different location. He’s just a such a nice, good-hearted guy; good-hearted to the core. When I thought of doing a live album, he was the very first person to pop into my mind. How do you stand out in a sea of similar singersongwriters? Y’know, I don’t really think of it that way. I’m not comparing myself to anyone or competing against anyone, I just write my own songs that come from my heart. I’m trying to create good songs, just doing my thing. I’m still touring seven years after being on a show like American Idol, so ... some folks come because they saw me on the show, others didn’t know I was on the show and discovered me through a friend, and that’s pretty validating.

I’m glad you brought up American Idol. Do you think a show like that was a good thing or a harmful thing? It’s different. I would never say harmful. It wasn’t the route I dreamed I would take, I kind of did it out of desperation and necessity and wanting to give my son a better, more stable life. No harm in that.

A new taproom/restaurant gives the people what they want: Beers!
R
owley Farmhouse Ales (1405 Maclovia St., 428-0719) specializes in the kinds of beers that European farmers historically made from the grain, hops and yeast they grew and had at hand. And so, on a blustery fall day, I met a foodie friend for lunch at this little gastropub off Cerrillos Road. At first glance it doesn’t look like much: A small bar/dining room area that leads out to large tented patio. A row of tall red chairs line the long bar while a handful of tables sit against the wall. Wooden farm and kitchen implements hang on the earth-tone walls. Beer is what probably draws most people here. Owner John Rowley is a chemist who came to New Mexico to work at Los Alamos National Labs, but whose real passion is beer. He’s been an active home brewer for seven years and is the president of the Sangre de Cristo Craft Brewers. At Rowley Farmhouse Ales, he specializes in rustic, sour ales that are a delight to connoisseurs and something of a novelty to those who’ve never tried them. My foodie friend, I came to find, doesn’t drink beer. I ordered a sample of a recommended sour ale, which was bright, crisp, grapefruity and, yes, sour. It struck me as an adventure better taken on a hot summer day. My dining companion gave it a whiff and his face reminded me that sour ales are indeed an acquired taste. Luckily, Rowley has a couple dozen offerings on tap, many of them unusual, and the rotation includes some familiar local brews like a lager from Bosque Brewing, La Cumbre’s Dank IPA and a pale ale from Marble Brewery. I took one look at the dark clouds outside and ordered a dark, chocolatey breakfast stout. Perfect. Maybe this is a brilliant marketing plan, to serve a carefully curated list of unusual beers, and maybe Rowley will find a broader appeal with a few more safe bets on tap. My preference would be for a more approachable beer list, but the market will decide.
For me, the food is more of a draw. Jeffrey Kaplan is the man behind Rowley’s ambitious gastropub fare and it goes beyond what we’ve come to expect from beer halls. Kaplan is a California native—and graduate of the California Culinary Academy—who has been working in restaurants and hotels for ages. He came to Santa Fe a few years ago to work for the Castle Ranch (a sinceclosed steakhouse), but at Rowley, he’s focused on food that You know who you want making your beer?

Stronger Than Bullets Review: Songs of Revolution The role of music during Gaddafi’s fall by alex de vore alex@sfreporter.com
In the years leading up to the bloody 2011 Libyan revolution, despised tyrant and all-around terrible monster Moammar Gaddafi placed a ban on Western instruments, claiming they diluted the country’s culture by drawing attention from more traditional of-
ferings. Culture is generally pretty high on the list of things to attack during systematic oppression, but this proved especially devastating to Libyan musicians who, as most of us take for granted, equate musical expression with freedom and who were subsequently forced to take their product underground. Filmmaker Matthew Millan (2011’s We Win or We Die) explores the dark days following the music ban parallel to the rebel uprising through a handful of brave musicians in 2015’s Stronger Than Bullets, which screens
SCORE CARD
their struggles on a personal level. It is almost unthinkable to imagine a world in which our music would be taken away—and yet they lived it, fought for it, bled for it. This is hardly a criticism, however; it’s more of an indictment of our own ability to take such seemingly simple things for granted. To see Buisir on the front lines, guitar in hand and an RPG mounted to his back, belting out an anthem not just of strength and rebellion, but also of patriotism despite the brutality of the Libyan government, is to observe the true face of bravery. Millan succeeds not only in shining a light on the unthinkable violence of the revolution and the villainous Gadaffi, but in uplifting audiences through music. He proves that which we so often forget: Without art, without music, without the people who are willing to fight and die for the things that connect us a human beings, we wouldn’t have anything worth fighting for at all. Stronger Than Bullets is utterly brilliant and should be required viewing from high school classrooms to anyone with even a passing interest in music and culture. See this film immediately.

at the Center for Contemporary Arts at 3:45 pm on Saturday Dec. 10 as part of this year’s Santa Fe Film Festival. Millan cuts a wide swath through interviews, jarring wartime footage, homemade music videos and a kickass soundtrack. Dozens of musicians are featured representing countless genres, though the bulk of the story focuses on a Libyan troubadour named Masoud Buisir who wrote and sang songs on the frontlines, a Bosnian immigrant named Jasmin “Dado” Ikanovich who operated a home studio during the coup, a Libyan rapper named MC Swat who wanted to “give a voice to the voiceless” and an American-Libyan rapper named Malik L, who dropped everything in the US to reconnect with his roots. It is intense and difficult to watch, especially since the idea of banned music seems far more dark-ages than 2000s. But even as their friends, family and peers fought and died in the streets, these heroic musicians endured, eventually creating an impressive five-story cultural center that offered everything from practice space to free studio time. Even as the tides of war shifted and the cultural center was lost, they carried on, penning revolutionary anthems, mounting public concerts and providing the resistance with both entertainment and inspiration. Though we begin to form an almost protective reverence for their tenacity, it is ultimately hard to identify with

THE LOST CITY OF CECIL B DEMILLE Who wouldn’t love a film about a dismantled film set turned archaeological dig? Indeed, film buffs and excavation junkies alike will enjoy a look into the foundation on which Hollywood cinema was built in filmmaker Peter Brosnan’s (writer of the 1997 action-thriller Perfect Target) directorial debut, The Lost City of Cecil B DeMille, which screens at this year’s Santa Fe Film Festival on Friday Dec. 9 at 1 pm at the Jean Cocteau Cinema. DeMille, one of the most famed auteurs in cinematic history, helmed numerous biblical films from 1913 through the ‘50s. After filming The Ten Commandments (that 1956 Bible-to-blockbuster epic wherein Charlton Heston, as Moses, frees the Jews), he ordered the gargantuan Egyptianstyle set to be destroyed and buried in the sand dunes of Guadalupe, California, where it remained hidden for over 60 years. The Lost City of Cecil B DeMille follows Brosnan and archaeologist/fellow film enthusiast John Parker as they embark upon a journey to unearth the legendary set remains and (hopefully) reach their ultimate goal—finding the Egyptian Sphinx replica. Although DeMille ordered his set to be secretly hidden, a subtle clue found in 1959’s The Autobiography of Cecil B Demille,
published after his death, indicated the whereabouts of the lost city. It left Brosnan and Parker obsessed, spurring a quest that began in 1983, and that continues to uncover bits and pieces to this day. Brosnan and Parker document every step of the way, from hearing the DeMille legend in a bar to battling for the rights to dig in Santa Barbara County. With the addition of interviews with DeMille’s descendants and film colleagues as well as archaeologists, Brosnan portrays their efforts as a tempestuous fight to uncoverthe film titan’s legacy, but one that was ultimately worth it. (Kim Jones) Jean Cocteau, NR, 88 min.
DON’T CALL ME SON A moody teenage boy is thrust into a labyrinth of overwhelming heartache and confusion when he learns that the woman he believed was his mother (Lais Dias) kidnapped him as a baby some 17 years ago. Don’t Call Me Son, from Brazilian filmmaker Anna Muylaert (The Second Mother), examines the life of young Pierre (Naomi Nero), an average teen who comes from limited means in some lower-middle-class favela of Brazil. Pierre embraces a more fluid sexuality and loves to dress in women’s clothing, though these are secrets he mostly keeps to himself for much of the film, suggesting
that he is ashamed of himself. But when his birth parents miraculously track him down and expect him to come live with them, everything changes and Pierre must adjust to a more straight-laced family that puts unthinkable pressure on the boy to live up to whatever impossibly idealized version of him they’ve concocted in their heads over the years. Even more baffling is his eventual declaration of his penchant for cross-dressing, which comes out not as a statement on selfdiscovery or love or even just being who he is, but rather as an emotional attack against his biological family meant to freak them out as a sort of misguided punishment. It would only be natural that he’d vilify the people who he perceives to have stolen the life he knew and his “mother,” the only constant force in his life, but the über-macho and prejudiced reaction from his biological father (Matheus Nachteragle) seems more like emotionally manipulative trope than worthwhile storytelling mechanic. Don’t Call Me Son ultimately doesn’t explore Pierre’s sexuality to any meaningful degree, nor does it examine the fallout of his kidnapping and subsequent new life. Instead, it dwells on awkward exchanges and uncomfortable silences without coming to any resolutions. (Alex De Vore) The Screen, NR, 82 min, subtitles CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

FANTASTIC BEASTS AND WHERE TO FIND THEM We follow the hijinks of a young wizard named Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne of Les Misérables), a sort of conservationist/magic ecologist who travels the globe both searching for and educating folks about rare magical beasts and having just such a delightfully absurd yet appropriate name. For those familiar with the Harry Potter fiction, we can think of Newt like a sort of precursor to the beast-loving Hagrid from the original run of books and films, especially in his inability to accept that some beasts are just plain dangerous. It’s 1926 in New York City and oh, man, wouldn’t you know it—a bunch of Newt’s beasts get loose! If that wasn’t hard enough for the guy, the American magic community sure is different than the British one to which we’ve grown accustomed via JK Rowling’s other works. Muggles (nonmagic folk) are here called “no-maj,” and it’s hard to decide if it’s insulting or just right that the American version of such a concept is the least creative descriptor of all time. Just as Newt comes to New York, a malevolent invisible force starts killing people, and our adorable little hero must join up with a disgraced magic cop named Tina (Katherine Waterston of Inherent Vice), her mind-reading sister Queenie (Alison Sudol) and a no-maj named Kowalski (Dan Fogler) who just wants to open a damn bakery but is swept up in the madness. Everyone obviously blames Newt and his magic creatures, but it seems like the mysterious Graves (who is like, the vice president of magic or something and played by Colin Farrell) knows more than he’s letting on and anyway—Newt dresses in bright colors, so he can’t possibly be bad. Potter-heads will no doubt feel excitement at the prospect of revisiting the world of Rowling’s creation, but make no mistake about the feel of Fantastic Beasts: It’s just not quite the same. It sure is fun, though, and with a reported four more films in the series on the way, all directed by Potter veteran David Yates, there’s still time to do better. If nothing else, the huge reveal at the end is pretty exciting (no spoilers), just don’t expect to love it unless you’re already into this stuff. (ADV) Violet Crown, Regal, PG-13, 133 min.
MOONLIGHT
In a new work based on the previously unproduced screenplay In Moonlight Black Boys Look Blue by Tarell Alvin McCraney, director Barry Jenkins (Medicine for Melancholy) brings us a romantic drama fueled by self-discovery. A young boy grows up in Miami during the
’70s and ’80s while struggling to accept his identity. We tour through three significant chapters of Chiron’s life, from timid boy to deluded man, as played at various ages by newcomer Alex Hibbert, Ashton Sanders from Straight Outta Compton and Westworld’s Trevante Rhodes. Chiron must navigate a veritable minefield of adolescent strife, from a drug-addicted mother, an antihero crack dealer named Juan (Mahershala Ali) and his budding sexuality with lifelong friend Kevin (Jharrell Jerome and André Holland). Moonlight focuses on the paradoxical question of who you are and who you are expected to be, as Chiron learns he can be open with Kevin sans judgment and utilizes that presence as a safe space. Chiron uncomfortably flits through adulthood, defying the stereotypes of gay and black men, but eventually becoming a crack dealer running the inner city of Atlanta. When Chiron and Kevin reconnect in adulthood, however, Chiron must evaluate who he has become and who he has portrayed himself to be. The gritty plot is beautifully accompanied by ambient lighting and carefully composed scenes, further supporting the poignancy each character brings to the screen, and though Chiron’s voice is rarely heard, he expresses himself with his actions, whether violent or passionate. Moonlight thus becomes a cinematic masterpiece, a journey of love, loss and selfdiscovery that will leave viewers captivated by Chiron’s character long after the film is over.

ARRIVAL Half the country is celebrating the arrival of an iconoclastic new leader, while the other half is gripped with despondency and even fear. It’s hard not to think about this when watching Arrival, an aliens-to-Earth film that’s less about first contact than first communication. Twelve black, split-shaped ovoids simultaneously appear around the planet, each measuring 1,500 feet high and hovering mere meters above the surface. The arrival of these ships triggers immediate hysteria—air travel is grounded, gun sales are barred, food rationing begins. Looting and mass suicides follow. The world’s militaries also mobilize, including efforts to communicate with the aliens. The US Army converges on a ship stationed above the green prairie of Montana, recruiting linguist Louise Banks (Amy Adams) and mathematician Ian Donnelly (Jeremy Renner) to help translate the aliens’ language. Director Denis Villeneuve (Sicario; Prisoners) seems to deliberately invite comparisons to cinematic classics like Close Encounters of the Third Kind and The Day the
MOVIES
meh Pretty much nothing good happens to young Pierre in Don’t Call Me Son. Earth Stood Still. It’s certainly no coincidence that the rectangular, translucent barrier separating humans visiting the spacecraft from the onboard extraterrestrials resembles a movie theater screen. Banks gradually decodes the method of communication used by the “heptapods,” large, barrel-shaped beings whose seven tentacled legs emit an inky secretion that forms their advanced written language. Arrival opens with a montage depicting the birth, life, and death of Banks’ young daughter, Hannah, and this personal melancholy hangs over the film and informs its ultimate destination. Like Hannah’s name, the narrative is a palindrome, with a common beginning and end. The heptapods’ nonlinear language, expressed as innumerable, circular semagrams, triggers a linguistic relativity in Banks that eventually extends to the viewer’s interpretation of the story. These weighty concepts, so central to the source material (Ted Chiang’s short story Story of Your Life), translate unevenly to film. Arrival’s latter half becomes bogged down in the existential themes and ponderous presentation
of Banks’ transfiguration into soothsayer and then savior, which stays stubbornly esoteric. Resonance remains in the juxtaposition between Banks’ linguistic aims and the response of divergent, suspicious nations. After scientists misinterpret a heptapod symbol as referring to the use of a “weapon,” the reaction of world and military leaders is akin to a police officer mistakenly believing he hears the word “gun” during a traffic stop or a political rally. Rogue, trigger-happy soldiers take matters into their own hands. The plug is pulled on a broadcast interface that experts around the globe use to share resources about communicating with the aliens—each of the dozen or so split-screens go dark, each noticeably emblazoned with the word “Disconnected.” Following the results of our recent election, many eagerly expect a revival of older cultural and economic traditions, while others are protesting in the streets over the loaded meaning of “traditional.” Another opportunity to find common ground has only reinforced our strident differences. It feels like we’ve never felt more disconnected. (Neil Morris) Violet Crown, Regal, PG-13, 116 min.

MIND BODY SPIRIT ASTROLOGY Rob Brezsny
Week of December 7th
ARIES (March 21-April 19) Normally I cheer you on when you devote single-minded attention to pressing concerns, even if you become a bit obsessive. But right now, in accordance with astrological omens, I invite you to run wild and free as you sample lavish variety. It’s prime time to survey a spectrum of spicy, shiny, and feisty possibilities…to entertain a host of ticklish riddles rather than to insist on prosaic answers. You have been authorized by the cosmos to fabricate your own temporary religion of playing around and messing around and fooling around.
ewes from 18th-century Spain. How did that happen? It’s a long story. (Read about it here: tinyurl.com/ merinosheep.) For the oracular purposes of this horoscope, I’ll simply say that in the next nine months you’ll also have the potential to germinate a few choice seeds that could ultimately yield enormous, enduring results. Choose well!
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Five of my Scorpio acquaintances and 17 of my Scorpio readers have let me know that they’re actively seeking to make new alliances and strengthen their existing alliances. Does this mean that TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Taurus poet Adrienne Rich Scorpios everywhere are engaged in similar quests? I described “an honorable human relationship” as “one in hope so. I would love to see you expand your network of which two people have the right to use the word ‘love.’” like-minded souls. I would love for you to be ardent How is that right earned? How is such a bond nurtured? about recruiting more help and support. Happily, the Rich said it was “often terrifying to both persons current astrological omens favor such efforts. Hot tip: involved,” because it’s “a process of refining the truths For best results, be receptive, inviting, and forthright. they can tell each other.” I bring this to your attention, SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) “The awesome Taurus, because you’re in a favorable phase to become splendor of the universe is much easier to deal with if an even more honorable lover, friend, and ally than you you think of it as a series of small chunks,” wrote already are. To take advantage of the opportunity, novelist Terry Pratchett. That’s true enough, but I’ll add a explore this question: How can you supercharge and caveat: Now and then the trickle of small chunks of purify your ability to speak and hear the truth? awesome splendor gives way to a surge of really big GEMINI (May 21-June 20) In Goethe’s play Faust, the chunks. According to my astrological analysis, that’s hero bemoans his lack of inner unity. Two different souls either already happening for you, or else is about to live within him, he says, and they don’t cooperate. Even happen. Can you handle it? I’m sure you’ve noticed that worse, they each try to rule him without consulting the some people are unskilled at welcoming such glory; they other. I’m guessing you’ve experienced a more manage- prefer to keep their lives tidy and tiny. They may even able version of that split during the course of your life. get stressed out by their good fortune. I trust you’re not Lately, though, it may have grown more intense and divi- one of these fainthearted souls. I hope you will summon sive. If that’s true, I think it’s a good sign. It portends the the grace you’ll need to make spirited use of the possibility that healing is in the works…that energy is onslaught of magnificence. building for a novel synthesis. To help make it happen, CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) In his book The Dictionary identify and celebrate what your two sides have in comof Obscure Sorrows, John Koenig coins words to describe mon. previously unnamed feelings. I suspect you may have CANCER (June 21-July 22) The poet Dick Allen experienced a few of them recently. One is “monachopdescribed Zen Buddhism as being “so filled with parasis,” defined as “the subtle but persistent feeling of doxes that it jumps through hoops that aren’t even being out of place.” Then there’s “altschmerz,” meaning there.” I’m tempted to apply this description to the way “weariness with the same old issues you’ve always had.” you’ve been living your life recently. While I can see how Another obscure sorrow you might recognize is “nodus it may have entertained you to engage in such glamortollens,” or “the realization that the plot of your life ous intrigue, I’m hoping you will stop. There is no longer doesn’t make sense anymore.” Now I’ll tell you two of anything to be gained by the complicated hocus-pocus. Koenig’s more uplifting terms, which I bet you’ll feel as But it’s fine for you to jump through actual hoops if you claw your way free of the morass. First, there’s doing so yields concrete benefits. “liberosis”: caring less about unimportant things; relaxing your grip so you can hold your life loosely and playLEO (July 23-Aug. 22) For decades, numerous self-help fully. Second, there’s “flashover,” that moment when authors have claimed that humans use ten percent or conversations become “real and alive, which occurs less of their brain’s potential. But the truth is that our when a spark of trust shorts out the delicate circuits you gray matter is far more active than that. The scientific keep insulated under layers of irony.” evidence is now abundant. (See a summary here: tinyurl. com/mindmyths.) I hope this helps spur you to destroy AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) In 1983, two Australian any limited assumptions you might have about your own blokes launched a quest to tip a drink at every pub in brainpower, Leo. According to my astrological analysis, Melbourne. Thirty-two years later, Mick Stevens and you could and should become significantly smarter in Stuart MacArthur finally accomplished their goal when the next nine months—and wiser, too! they sipped beers at The Clyde. It was the 476th establishment on their list. The coming weeks will be a highly VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Born under the sign of Virgo, favorable time to plan an epic adventure of your own, Mary Oliver is America’s best-selling poet. She wasn’t Aquarius. I hope and pray, though, that you will make it an overnight sensation, but she did win a Pulitzer Prize more sacred and meaningful than Stevens’ and when she was 49. “What I loved in the beginning, I MacArthur’s trivial mission. think, was mostly myself,” she confesses in one poem. “Never mind that I had to, since somebody had to.
