THE WEEKLY CONVERSATION

by ANDREW TRAVERS

POPULAR MUSIC THE SOUND OF A FIRST NATIONS pow-wow mixes surprisingly well with the glitches and bass drops of contemporary electronic dance music, as proven by Canada’s A Tribe Called Red. The Ottawa-based DJ crew — DJ NDN, Bear Witness and 2oolman — mixes pow-wow vocals and drumming with dance tracks, spawning a new subgenre and a youthful new form of native selfexpression. A Tribe Called Red began with Electric Pow Wow events in Ottawa, showcasing native talent and in a youth-driven, partyoriented atmosphere. Their acclaimed self-titled 2012 debut album made the long list for Canada’s Polaris Music Prize, and started a buzz across North America about the outfit’s unique sound. The trio released their follow-up record, “Nation II Nation,” on May 7 and they’re currently on a U.S. tour that brings A Tribe Called Red to Belly Up Aspen on Thursday, May 14. The show, including politically charged and often lighthearted visual art and video about aboriginal culture from Bear Witness, promises to be a highlight of the Belly Up spring lineup. Tickets are $5 in advance and $8 on the day of the show. The show begins at 9 p.m. Nas Ja opens. Tickets and more info at the Belly Up box office and www. bellyupaspen.com

A Tribe Called Red will perform on Thursday, May 14 at Belly Up Aspen.

THE WEEKLY CONVERSATION

VOX POP What’s the loudest noise you’ve ever heard?

WITH JOHN COLSON

A personal primer on ‘Bodymore, Murderland’ ANYONE WHO’S SPENT TIME in Baltimore, Maryland, knows that Freddie Gray’s death and the urban unrest it spawned were not that surprising. Odds are that you haven’t been to Baltimore, which has never been high on the list of tourist destinations for most of the U.S. traveling public, other than those living in the mid-Atlantic coastal region. But clearly, as was proved in recent weeks, all is not rosy in what once was the sixth-largest city in the nation and the chief bulwark of Maryland’s overall economy. Unemployment is monstrously high in the black regions of the city, where housing is dilapidated at best, and opportunities are something that are available to other people but not to those living in West Baltimore, the scene of the riots. Over the course of the century just past, Baltimore lost its primacy in such vital industries as steel production and shipping, although shipping seems to be undergoing a resurgence at the expense of Baltimore’s main rival port, Norfolk, Virginia. But Baltimore’s economy has been in shambles for decades. A key problem has been corruption at city hall, starting in the mid-1960s as successive mayoral administrations have become more and more dependent on federal and state largess and have erected a host of regulations and restrictions, deemed “anti-business” by commentators on the Worldwide Web, that are blamed for driving out many large employers seeking friendlier places to do business. Dubbed “Bodymore, Murderland” by its own residents at one point, the city’s murder rate and general crime rate were well above national averages. In Baltimore and all of Maryland, there is deeply rooted racism and all its attendant ills. Black residents are herded into certain neighborhoods, blacks were long denied work in many sectors of the economy, and blacks always have been savagely harassed and intimidated by their police force, by black officers as well as white. Some observers say Baltimore is the nation’s best (or worst) laboratory for studying racially-driven urban blight and all of its ramifications. I should note that I’ve been to Baltimore, numerous times, while living in Maryland in the 1960s and early 1970s, which is where I first encountered racism at its worst. Moving to Greenbelt, Maryland, in the fall of 1966, I was shocked to learn that our town had, the previous summer,

hosted the last of its annual parades by the Ku Klux Klan. In 1972 I lived for a year just outside Baltimore, in a little unincorporated region called Pasadena, perched along a backwater tidal inlet just off the Chesapeake Bay, and did factory work in the city. I didn’t spend a lot of time in the city, other than during working hours, because for years I had heard that young, long-haired hippies such as myself could expect rough treatment from the local cops if we ever crossed paths. But I recall one party at a row house in one of the city’s ghettos, which is where my hippie and blue-collar friends mostly lived. Some enterprising soul appeared with a couple of cases of canned whipped cream, which we gleefully sprayed all over the neighborhood’s light poles, fire hydrants and cars after indulging in more mind-altering substances than probably were good for us. My memories of the night are obscure, but I recall at one point hearing sirens a few blocks away and listening to my buddies making relieved statements to the effect of, “Whew, the cops are hassling the black gangs over in the next neighborhood, they won’t be here any time soon.” We got off scot free that night, but I still wonder what the scene was like for the “gangs” a few streets over. I recently asked my brother, who is five years my junior and who spent a lot more time than I did roaming the back streets of Baltimore, about his experiences with Baltimore cops. He said the word back then was that you could expect to get your head caved in if you made the cops mad, and that it was very easy to make them mad. The rule of thumb, he said, was that if you went up to “Bal-mur” (as it was pronounced) to party, you’d better get out of town by dusk or face some serious potential repercussions. All of this is just to point out that I can understand, to some extent, the bad vibes faced by Freddie Gray, who died in early April of a broken neck while in the hands of the Baltimore police. I also am not surprised by the uproar among the city’s police at the news that six of their own face charges ranging from homicide to infringement on Gray’s civil rights over their conduct that night. Too many are cops raised on racism and bullying tactics against any and all easy targets, which mostly means the people of color who live in the slums, and they don’t like being messed with.

POLITICAL POSTUR ING

1894 ASPEN

MORE THAN 25 YEARS BEFORE the achievement of national women’s suffrage in 1920, women won the right to vote in Colorado in 1893. As The Aspen Times reported on March 24, 1894, “there are two women running for office in Aspen this spring. The Times wishes both represented some party and some principle in politics, for it would be a pleasure to support two women for office and thus prove the sincerity of its motives in advocating woman suffrage last fall. But laying politics aside, wouldn’t it be a good idea for these estimable women to get out and make a good lively canvas. It is undoubtedly legitimate politics that a person nominated for an office should become acquainted with the people whom they hope to claim as their constituents. The women need not carry around a pocket full of cigars, nor call the boys up to the bar for drinks, and if women’s influence in politics shall bring this kind of electioneering into disrepute she will bring about an important and needed reform.” This photo and more can be found in the Aspen Historical Society archives at aspenhistory.org.

GREEN LIGHT: THE BLAZE LASERLIGHT

GET IT

www.blaze.cc

A GREEN LASER BEAM shoots from my bike handlebars. It hits the pavement, refracting into a shape with two wheels and a frame. London-based Blaze is a bike-light company trying something new. Its flagship Laserlight product offers a piercing LED glow as well as the namesake green laser. Superimposed on a dark road ahead the virtual biker bobs and shifts as I coast toward a busy street. Cars streak past, their headlights igniting the road. Blaze built its product to keep you safer biking in the dark. The company calls the Laserlight the “safest bike light on the market.” Made with a metal case and quality design, the light costs £125, or about $190. You can order it from Blaze.cc. For that price you get a blindingly bright

light. The green laser feature is a side benefit the brand touts “makes your presence known, alerts drivers to your approach, and lets you be seen when you’d be otherwise invisible.” It does do some of that. But after a couple months of testing, I was not sold on the laser function. People in cars can see you a bit better with this setup. But the laser light is not overly effective. On more than one occasion, while waiting at an intersection, I had cars actually run over my tiny green bike without seeming to notice. Other bikers noticed. I got lots of strange looks and questions. The green glowing bike, which blinks and skips around on the road, is also a bit hypnotizing while riding on a dark night. The company designed the laser to alert

drivers of your presence. Coming up along the side of a truck, for example, the laser shines ahead, ostensibly warning of your arrival from a blind spot. Beyond the laser, the light worked great, with up to 300 lumens of brightness at its max. I love the solid build and the mount is among the best I’ve seen. It is waterproof, and the light recharges via USB and holds its power for hours of use. Anything that can make you more visible on the road, in my opinion, is a good thing. But at nearly $200, and with mediocre laser effectiveness, the first generation could use an upgrade.

ASPEN UNTUCKED

by BARBARA PLATTS

Just because you give Mom a card and flowers on Mother’s Day doesn’t mean you’ve fallen prey to the Hallmark marketing machine.

HALLMARK HOLIDAYS WHY WE ACTUALLY NEED THEM

NO MATTER THE TIME OF YEAR, there is always an approaching holiday. There is always another reason we have to pull out our wallets and give in to the Hallmark Gods. We can’t help it. The radio ads are endless. The suggestive signs in random stores are all too convincing. And the fact that everyone else is doing it doesn’t help. Holidays have BARBARA become an incredibly PLATTS lucrative business. Americans purchase about 6.5 billion greeting cards each year, equaling somewhere between 7 to 8 billion dollars in revenue. The sheer mass of this business probably makes a good part of the population weary of some of our holidays and their importance. Despite the scrutiny, I’ve always been a fan of most holidays. Not because I necessarily believe in the reason each one was created or what it has turned into. I don’t celebrate Christmas because I think a nice bearded character, created by Coca Cola, is going to come down the chimney and bring me presents. I celebrate it because it’s a time I can be with the people I hold dearest. Holidays give us a moment to pause in our hectic, and often monotonous, lives and think about

P H OTO S B Y BA R BA R A P L AT T S

what we appreciate and why we appreciate it. I thought about this last Sunday while the whole country, and even parts of Canada and Europe, celebrated Mother’s Day. Yes, we were bombarded with commercialism. Cards filled the shelves of general stores and boutique shops that read statements like “Just admit it Mom, I’m your favorite!” and “To the best mom in the entire world…” All of a sudden we appreciated our mothers…because that’s what we were essentially told to do. For most of us, that meant we remembered the holiday at the last minute. We rushed to find our mother’s favorite flowers, a funny or endearing card and possibly even a present. In fact, 84.2 percent of us in the U.S. did it and we spent around $21.2 billion in our efforts. So yes, we spent a lot of money for what is now known as a Hallmark Holiday (the daughter of the creator of Mother’s Day actually fought adamantly to stop the holiday’s growing commercialism). But we didn’t just do it because that’s what we were supposed to do. We did it to acknowledge our mothers and to show our love for them. And for those who have lost their mom, the day hopefully gave them a chance to reflect on the good times. This philosophy carries over for the most Hallmarky of all holidays, Valentine’s Day. Though the day

leaves all of the single folks in a state of angst, and yes, more often than not I have been one of those singletons, it does give people in a relationship a chance to express their love for their significant other. It makes them put aside a night around Feb. 14 to spend together. This is the same with many holidays. On Fourth of July, we cherish our country. On New Year’s Eve, we look towards a fresh start, with fresh goals and renewed motivation. And on St. Patrick’s Day we appreciate a heavy dose of whiskey with a side of Guinness. On Cinco de Mayo we…well I’m not sure what we celebrate, but it involves a hell of a lot of tequila. Olé! I was home in Boulder for Mother’s Day. I didn’t make the trip back for the holiday. It was a friend’s 25th birthday and she had a weekend hoopla prepared with her closest comrades. But I ended up staying an extra day for the holiday. I hung out with my mom in the morning, helping her with various chores, one of her favorite pastimes. Then we went on a shopping excursion, where she had much more interest in buying clothes for me than herself — no matter how hard I tried to persuade her otherwise. That’s how my mom is though. She’s entirely selfless and her generosity is endless. Plus she’s constantly making everyone laugh with her charmingly

stubborn personality and her clever, witty comebacks. The woman is a force to be reckoned with and I’m unbelievably proud to be a member of her offspring. I knew all of these things about my mom. I’ve always adored her, but Mother’s Day gave me a chance to reiterate it to her and myself, even if doing that involves the standard bouquet of roses and a humorous card. I’ll happily play the game, because it’s a good reminder of what I’m thankful for. It’s a good reminder of whom I hold closest. Barbara Platts did very well this Mother’s Day, giving her mother several gifts, a bouquet of flowers and a hilarious card. She’s thinking she may be up for daughter of the year.

WINEINK

CAN YOU SAY URUGUAY? “WHAT DO YOU KNOW about Uruguayan wines?” asked a recent missive from a friend. Well that stumped me. Tannat was all I could come up with. A single word. A single grape. I had a vague concept of where Uruguay was and a recollection of a surfing beach called Punta del Este, but that was about it. An immersion was KELLY J. HAYES needed. Within days, a shipment of wines arrived from Charles Communications Associates, which represents Wines of Uruguay, the organization formed by the members of the Association of Exporting Wineries and the Association of Wine Tourism here in the U.S. The next week was spent tasting Tannat and learning about a place and space I had never considered. Immersion was underway. First, a bit about Uruguay, which, keep in mind, is in midto late-fall as we speak. Yes, harvest has already happened for 2015. Uruguay is located in South America on the Atlantic seaboard, just to the north of Brazil. About the same size as the state of Washington and with less than 3.5 million people, the Oriental Republic of Uruguay, as

it is officially decreed, is known for having a stable government, a healthy economy and a record of environmental sustainability. In 2013 it became the first nation to legalize marijuana. Just sayin’. Geographically, Uruguay is in a sweet spot for wine production ranging in latitude from 30 to 35 degrees south of the equator. Montevideo, the capital city and home to fully a third of the nation’s population, sits on the Atlantic at 34 degrees south. For perspective, the Santa Barbara, California, wine region sits on the Pacific at 34 degrees north. The soils are clayrich and the abundant sunshine of the coastal regions makes it a special place in the world of wine. Today there are maybe 200 wineries in the country and the production amounts to around 10 million cases, about equal to the amount made in the state of New York, which is America’s thirdlargest producer with 12 million cases annually. The people of Uruguay consume the vast majority of these wines, but in recent years a large jug of juice was sold to Russia, and China is also becoming a larger market as well. While there are scattered small family vineyards throughout the country, there are four main wine regions: Canelones, Montevideo, Colonia and Maldonado, with Canelones dominating as it

OF THE 10 WINES I TASTED, THERE WERE GREAT VARIATIONS. A FEW WERE SO ASTRINGENT AND TANNIC THAT THEY LITERALLY “DRIED” MY TONGUE ON FIRST BLUSH. THESE WINES REQUIRED FOOD, GRILLED MEAT PREFERABLY, TO BE PALATABLE. I ALSO FOUND A NEED TO BRUSH REGULARLY AFTER THE TASTINGS. BUT OTHERS, THOUGH BURSTING WITH INTENSITY AND FLAVOR, WERE RESTRAINED ENOUGH TO BE NOT JUST SIPPABLE, BUT DELICIOUS.

A S P E N T I M E S W E E K LY

Ma y 14 - Ma y 20, 2015

hosts 60 percent of the nation’s total production. Canelones, about an hour’s drive north from bustling Montevideo, would be the equivalent of what Napa is to San Francisco. The majority of the wines that I received came from Canelones. There is a concerted effort on the part of the Uruguayan wine industry to tie its export fortunes to a single grape, Tannat. As Shiraz did for Australia, Sauvignon Blanc for New Zealand and Malbec for Argentina, the thinking is that if the country can become known as the cradle of Tannat it will raise the tide of the entire industry. It is a solid strategy in an increasingly crowded and competitive global wine market. Tannat is a grape with origins in what is now the Madirin AOC wine region of Southwest France, near the Pyrenees Mountains that form the border with Spain. The grape was brought to Uruguay by Basque settlers in the 1870s and thrived. Today it accounts for over 40 percent of total red wine production in the country with more than 8,500 acres planted to the grape, making Uruguay the world’s largest producer of Tannat. As the name implies, it is a “tannic” grape and it makes big, dark wines that are crushers. It is thick skinned, easy to grow, relatively non-susceptible to disease and temperature swings, and is reputed to be one of the “healthiest” grapes due to its high tannin content. Antioxidents and

resveratrol, the healthy elements of red wine, are very high in Tannat. Of the 10 wines I tasted, there were great variations. A few were so astringent and tannic that they literally “dried” my tongue on first blush. These wines required food, grilled meat preferably, to be palatable. I also found a need to brush regularly after the tastings. But others, though bursting with intensity and flavor, were restrained enough to be not just sippable, but delicious. My favorites were those that were mingled with other grapes, including Viognier, Syrah and, surprisingly, Zinfandel. There was a spice and earth characteristic to these wines that gave them a taste of “place” even though it was a place I did/do not know. (See notes on the wines in the adjacent box.) The problem — yes, there is always one of those — is that these wines are almost impossible to come by in Colorado, or in much of America at this point. Keep an eye open for an opportunity to try Tannat from Uruguay. Or perhaps schedule a trip. You can sip wine in Canelones and surf in Punta del Este. All in the same day.

UNDER THE INFLUENCE ARTESANA 2011 Tannat-Zinfandel-Merlot Reserva This American-owned winery with a pair of female winemakers is on the cutting edge of what wines from Uruguay may become. Winemakers Analía Lazaneo and Valentina Gatti produced a gem in this blend that, for fun, I will call a TZM. Rich, exploding with dark fruits and earth, it would be a great wine to put in front of a group of Master Sommeliers and ask, “So where is that from?” This is a wine I would buy now. ALTO DE LA BALLENA 2011 Reserve Tannat-Viognier A beautiful, deep ruby-colored wine that you want to make sure does not splash from the glass onto your white linen trousers. Softened by a 10 percent dose of Viognier, this is a great introduction to what Tannat tastes like. Big on the front, dry on mid-palate and lingering long on the finish. A great wine from The Hill of the Whale. NARBONA 2010 Tannat-Roble Near the Argentinian border lies the town of Carmelo and a 100-year-old winery that has been turned into the Narbona Wine Lodge, a Relais & Chateaux property. Here, another female winemaker, Valeria Chiola, who, according to the label, is making wines with “Wine Consultant” Michel Rolland, is turning out rich and elegant wines that may be the lynchpin in bringing Uruguayan Tannat to the people. At least to the people with money. This 100 percent Tannat is, again, big, fruit-forward, dry and, well, Tannat. A side of beef ribs from Argentine grill Master Francis Mallman would be the perfect accompaniment.

FOOD MATTERS FOOD MATTERS

EAT AND LEARN

A FOOD FUNDRAISER FOR ASPEN SCIENCE CENTER AND ASPEN PROSTART WHEN THE “RADARANGE” debuted for home use in 1967, it was considered a magic box. Pop in a plate of raw food, press a few buttons, and dinner emerges in mere minutes. The futuristic device was mind-boggling — and it cost more than $3,500. But prices dropped as microwaves became popular in the mid- to late-1970s, and by 1986 roughly 25 AMANDA RAE percent of households in the U.S. owned one. In 1997, that figure skyrocketed to 90 percent. Sure, consumers understood that the countertop cookers worked by exposing ingredients to electromagnetic waves, but ask the average American to explain the process — even today, as the microwave’s popularity is crashing due to health concerns — and likely you’d be met with a lot of headscratching and vague explanation. Today the food world is abuzz with the newest concept that might revolutionize the way we

make meals: 3D printing. Recently Fortune magazine asked: “Will 3D printed food become as common as the microwave?” Judging from the breakneck pace of development— the chef-intended Foodini will hit the market later this year for $1300; meanwhile, at the International Consumer Electronics Show in January, a Tawainese company unveiled a $500 home contraption that prints chocolate, cookie dough, icing, and similar sweets

— it’s quite possible. However, it’s just as likely that most users won’t truly grasp the technology behind their 3D-printed hamburgers. Our tendency, it seems, is to ignore the science of food in favor of efficiency. Who cares how it’s made — does it taste good? The Aspen Science Center is out to change that. While there may not be 3D printed fare at Sunday’s “Master of the Edible Molecule,” the final installment of the yearold Science Sundays at Jimmy’s, there will be plenty of discussion on the chemical makeup and properties of various ingredients. The series found a natural partner in restaurateur Jimmy Yeager after Harvard physicist David Weltz lectured on molecular cooking at the Aspen Center for Physics in June 2013. “That really inspired Jimmy to get involved in the science of cooking idea,” says Jacquelyn Francis, executive director of the nonprofit Aspen Science Center. (Yeager is so passionate about the topic that recently he sent Francis a video of a 3D printer creating food—from vacation in Europe.) “It’s a perfect marriage for him to be involved. There are so many of the same silent auctions [in Aspen]. I wanted to do something different.” The event on May 17, which also benefits the Aspen ProStart highschool culinary program, invites adults to experience an educational demonstration in the guise of a fast-paced game show featuring local personalities. Five teams, each led by a professional who works outside of the food and beverage industry (a jeweler, a CPA, a realtor, a doctor, and an architect), compete in rounds that explore scientific principles prevalent in cooking. Along the way, teams may bid on advantages to create winning dishes, as judged by a panel of area restaurateurs. Held at Jimmy’s, the first challenge, naturally, centers on the science of mixology. Each team captain will prepare a cocktail; the audience may help them out by purchasing the help

3D printers may be how we make food in future, but understanding the science behind

of a bartender or bidding on additional ingredients. Perhaps Yeager, a known ice geek, will drop knowledge on how to create the best cubes for different beverages. Twelve Aspen ProStart students — including five members of the culinary team, which placed second in the state at the 2015 ProStart Invitational — get in on the first food round: Emulsification. Charged with preparing a salad, teams may “rent” help (via audience bid) from the students, each equipped with knives, cutting boards, and tools required to present a finished plate. “Who will get a food processor? Who will get a fork to emulsify a dressing?” explains Aspen ProStart instructor Morgan Henschke, who likens Master of the Edible Molecule to the kitschy Food Network reality show, “Chopped.” As a teacher on an endless quest to make learning fun, Henschke appreciates that the fundraiser cloaks continuing education in creativity and excitement. Subsequent rounds spotlight the art of molecular gastronomy — making “caviar” spheres from liquids and churning ice cream with liquid nitrogen — securing help from a stable of top chefs including Barclay Dodge, Bryan

Nelson, Mike Ziemer, Tamara Ferro, and Kip Feight. Technology specialist and former restaurant owner Vince Lahey will serve as commentator, explaining scientific terms to the audience and auctioning off team privileges; judges hail from El Rincon, Meat & Cheese Restaurant and Farm Shop, and Brunelleschi’s. Francis hopes to fill Jimmy’s restaurant with 100 people or more — the last Science Sunday event on May 10, an Amazing Race-style teen scavenger hunt ending at Jimmy’s Bodega, drew 50 participants and saw a crowd double that size. “One of the reasons we can do this in the offseason is because we don’t have a space [for the Aspen Science Center],” Francis says. “We need to use what’s given to us. We’re so appreciative.” Considering that it’s as important as ever to be aware of what we eat, Master of the Edible Molecule is a great opportunity to understand how meals are made. For some it might even reignite a passion for old-fashioned home cooking — a good thing, since 3D printing could lead us out of the kitchen entirely. amandaraewashere@gmail.com

GUNNER’S LIBATIONS

by JEANNE MCGOVERN

MAYA PEPINO I have a mission: Return to the Westin Riverfront in Avon and try a Pepino on the sprawling deck of its Maya Restaurant, overlooking the pool, hot tubs and river below and with spot-on views of Beaver Creek above. I would have done just this on a recent offseason escape to this awesome resort property but, well, it was offseason there too — and the Colorado weather was more winter than summer. Still, I tasted a Maya Margarita at the chic contemporary restaurant bar and was perfectly content — until I perused the drink menu further. I love a drink with a kick, so the Pepino jumped out immediately. And putting cucumber in a cocktail is a new fave of mine, so blending the two together has got to

The SOCIAL SIDE of TOWN

by MAY SELBY

WILD FOR WILDWOOD

MAY SELBY

The beloved Wildwood School is an environmental preschool nestled in the woods a few miles from town up Independence Pass. The school’s environmental arts curriculum coupled with a wondrous mountain setting amidst beaver ponds, nature trails and forests of pine and willows, encourages children to explore and experience nature and animals right at their doorstep. For more than 40 years, the Wildwood “family” has been growing strong with many of its early graduates now parents of young Wildwooders. To support the school’s programs, they

hosted a fundraiser on Friday, May 1, with a Casino Night at the Caribou Club. Miles Angelo, executive chef at the Caribou, served delicious dishes while Woody Creek Distillers poured Lucky Lady Rhubarb Martinis. Guests tried their luck at black jack, poker, craps and roulette for a chance to win the grand prize — a one year membership to the Caribou Club. Auctioneers John Sarpa and Chris Klug rallied the live auction crowd to bid on priceless adventures including a private bike ride for five with TeJay van Garderen (a future Wildwood

parent) and his wife, Jessica Phillips (a Wildwood graduate), and a booze cruise consisting of a ride with a dozen friends on the infamous Wildwood School Bus to Woody Creek Distillers for a private tour and tasting, followed by a ride to Rustique Bistro for a three-course dinner in their private dining room. The event also featured hundreds of silent auction items donated from the generous community. Following on the success of this year’s event, plans for next spring’s Casino Night are already in discussion. Learn more about Wildwood by visiting www.wildwoodschool.org.

SECOND-TERM MAYOR REFLECTS ON PAST, LOOKS TO FUTURE

by KARL HERCHENROEDER

THOUGH STEVE SKADRON WON HANDILY in his effort to defend the Aspen mayorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s seat, earning 58 percent of the vote on May 5, he still wonders what he could have done differently to have swayed the 1,048 people who voted against him.

BELOW, MIDDLE: William Buck, the mayor of Crested Butte, shakes hands with Skadron, as the two prepare to race as a team in the 2014 Grand Traverse. BOTTOM: Skadron with 12 exchange students from New Zealand as part of Aspen’s Sister Cities program in January 2014.

Had the margin between he and challenger Torre been razor-thin, Skadron said recently from his office at City Hall, it would have made him curious. But moving into his second term in June, the mayor stands by the body of work from his council, which he said speaks to the margin of victory. “What you love is every vote,” Skadron said. “Then I started thinking what could I do better or differently to garner the confidence of the thousand people who didn’t vote for me.” The fact that Skadron and fellow incumbent Councilman Adam Frisch won so decisively may have come as a surprise for some, given the success of Referendum 1 at the polls. Both were adamantly opposed to the Home Rule Charter amendment, which moves Aspen’s electorate ahead of the council as the final authority for land-use applications with variances in specific areas. Skadron’s fear with the referendum is that scrutiny of applications will leave city council chambers and enter the public arena, where special interests could launch expensive, misinformation campaigns during unnecessary elections. Even with that in mind, he said Aspen will survive and he intends to honor the community’s will. While Skadron said he feels privileged that the residents of Aspen have placed their trust in him for a second term, he is still baffled by some of the community feedback he’s experiences in the past two years.

ASPEN TIMES FILE PHOTOS

“Now matter how well-intentioned you are, no matter how much you invest in an outcome, a percentage of the community still finds a reason to object,” Skadron said. “Maybe my opposition to the charter amendment had something to do with it, but I think back to, ‘What vote did I make that upset so many?’” Some in the community might praise Skadron’s “no” vote on Ordinance 19, the controversial lodging package that was repealed in the face of a referendum. They also might regard his ability to whittle projects like Hotel Aspen down as a strengths. But his critics cite his appointment of Councilman Dwayne Romero as one misstep. In 2013, when Skadron left his council seat, the vacancy was

“WHAT YOU LOVE IS EVERY VOTE...THEN I STARTED THINKING WHAT COULD I DO BETTER OR DIFFERENTLY TO GARNER THE CONFIDENCE OF THE THOUSAND PEOPLE WHO DIDN’T VOTE FOR ME.” − STEVE SKADRON, ASPEN MAYOR

A S P E N T I M E S . C O M / W E E K LY

nearly decided by a dice roll because the council was locked in a 2-2 tie over the decision. Rather than leave it to chance, Skadron opted to give his support to Romero instead of retired banker Howie Mallory. If some regard Skadron as a slow-growth advocate, others regard Romero as falling on the opposite end of the spectrum. Despite Romero’s voting record, Skadron stands behind the appointment, saying it signifies his desire for principle over popularity. He called it a leadership moment, a chance to show the community that he is a mayor ready to serve the entire community, not just one segment. “I wanted those who disagree with me to know that I was open to their opinion, and I wanted all to feel it was an inclusive environment,” Skadron

said. “Creativity comes from any place.” One regret for Skadron is the handling of the Centennial affordablehousing complex. Since 2009, the two sides have been in disagreement over $3.2 million in repairs attributed to water intrusion. The Centennial homeowners association credits the damage to inherent structural flaws from when the complex was built in 1985, while the city argues that the owners haven’t invested properly in routine maintenance. Skadron said the city has a role in facilitating an outcome at Centennial and expressed regret at the impasse. The question will be how much the city intends to invest in the complex, if at all, and the consensus so far has been that the government should not be bailing out homeowners.

“My last conversation with them was, ‘Please come back with another offer,’” Skadron said. “I think it speaks to broader issues in the whole affordablehousing program, and it’s critical to our success as a community, so we need to ensure that it’s operating at its maximum effectiveness.” Skadron, who served four years on the city’s Planning and Zoning Commission and six years on the council before winning the mayor’s seat in 2013, said it was never his intention to seek a role on council. His interest began in the early 2000s, when then-Mayor Helen Klanderud discussed with him the role of community service. Klanderud suggested

he volunteer for Planning and Zoning. Skadron said it’s quite different to say “I’m serving the community in the role as mayor” than it is to say “I am the mayor.” Sitting at the council table, he said, is not about using it as a political platform but an opportunity to serve the best long-term interests of the community. As far as seeking a third term, Skadron said he’s flattered at the suggestion. “But I would need to be successful in a second term before I would consider running for a third term,” he said.

ESCAPE ARTIST | ANTHONY BOURDAIN

by AMIEE WHITE BEAZLEY

ANTHONY BOURDAIN 2.0:

A LEAN, MEAN, GLUTEN-FREE FIGHTIN’ MACHINE IT’S 85 DEGREES, midday on the island of Grand Cayman, and Anthony Bourdain is dressed in his usual garb — flip flops, a pair of well-worn jeans, linen shirt. But something is missing — like, 30 pounds. At 6-foot-4 inches, Bourdain has never been a waif, but his sudden weight loss on an already lanky frame is startling. “I’m not eating carbs AMIEE WHITE or sugar,” he later BEAZLEY confesses to the crowd at the Cayman Cookout — the only food festival to which he is attached. It’s a three-day party headlined by his good friend and partner-in-crime, Le Bernadin chef Eric Ripert, who first organized the Cookout five years ago as a way to promote the island and his restaurant Blue at The RitzCarlton. There’s a rumor flying around the fest that Bourdain has also given up alcohol, and is only drinking and eating carbs and sugar when on-camera for his CNN travel show, “Parts Unknown.” But when I placed a cold rum punch in front of him on the last day of the festival, after spending no less than 30 minutes striking repeated smiles with hundreds of Cayman Cookout VIPs, you’re damn right he accepted it – graciously.

PHOTO BY AMIEE WHITE BEAZLEY

Bourdain says the strict and so-unlike-Bourdain diet is mainly to improve his training in jiu-jitsu, his latest self-confessed addiction. Recently on Instagram, Bourdain posted a photo of himself outside of a training facility that had yet to open. “Used to hang around cold stairwells first thing in the morning waiting for dope. Now I hang around cold stairwells waiting for jiu-jitsu,” he wrote. He was introduced to the sport through his wife, Ottavia, a professional jiu-jitsu fighter. Thanks to daily training sessions, at 58 years old Bourdain may be in the best physical shape of his life. And with a CNN Films bio-doc in the works, a street-food hall named Bourdain Market set to open in New York City this year, and more daring and further reaching episodes of “Parts Unknown, on the schedule, Bourdain is going to need his stamina.

ATW: You have a pretty strong no bullshit reputation in this industry. Is that something you’ve always had or acquired over the years? ANTHONY BOURDAIN:

Everything important I learned in life, I learned as a dishwasher. I spent 30 years in a business where there is no lying allowed. If you lie in your abilities as a cook, you will be revealed instantly. Bullshit is

fun. I enjoy it as an art form, but as grounds for any kind of lasting relationship or even informal agreement? I’m pretty merciless.

ATW: At this point in the game, what are you still getting from travel? AB: Confusion. I’m constantly confronted with my own ignorance. The world gets bigger and bigger the more I travel, and the less and less I know, it seems. The more tolerant I am, or maybe the more expandable my belief system becomes, as well as my understanding as how quickly things can go bad and how randomly things can just go terribly wrong. ATW: Speaking of things going wrong, what the hell happened when you visited Romania? It was one of your funniest episodes of “No Reservations,” but also seemed like one of the most painful to shoot. AB: It was just a show when everything went wrong. We made some fundamental mistakes, like using a not particularly dependable Russian as a fixer in Romania where they are not fond of being called “comrade” by a drunken Russian. The government and our contacts on the ground were obtrusive in their desire to make things look good for us, which means they tried to alter reality for us constantly to fit their narrative, which only made things hilariously awful. It’s not the show I wanted to make, but we got a lot of footage and the edited stuff was pretty goddamn funny. The fact is, despite having the correct permits, we’d arrive on location and someone would be asking us for a bribe, and we’d film that. We’d show up at the local butcher and somebody had stepped in and moved them to a more “suitable” location. We weren’t allowed to shoot ordinary things in Romania like Roma people or street food or

what it really looked like because they were constantly stepping in and threatening us with lack of pulling out cooperation if we showed those things. So, it became an unintentionally hilarious goat rodeo.

ATW: The closing of that show showed you having a pretty soaked night. What other memorable drinking experiences have you had while filming? AB: You know, I hear memorable drinking experience, I think already something bad happened. Positive drink experiences, they’re not the first things that come to mind. OK, memorable experience, it’s germane to where we are (in Grand Cayman). We went to Haiti in 2010 to shoot, and I’m staying at Hotel Oloffson, which is this crumbling, sort-of-gingerbread, fantastic, ramshackle, super-eccentric, “Addams Family” hotel. It was the middle of a thunderstorm, in fact, they say a hurricane is coming and the whole island is hunkering down for it. I hear this roaring belly laugh from downstairs and I go, “I know that laugh.” I go downstairs and it’s José Andrés, entertaining the foreign correspondents/disaster journalists who were there for the oncoming hurricane. So we’ve got a hurricane going on around us, and there’s José and he’s having the poor waiters make Dark and Stormys and rum sours for everyone. We drank a lot. ATW: What did José say when you came downstairs and he saw you? AB: He said something like, “Of course you’d be here, motherf*@ker. Of course it would be you.” Amiee White Beazley writes about travel for the Aspen Times Weekly. Reach her at awb@awbeazley.com or follow her @awbeazley1.

AN AUTHENTIC SEMANA SANTA “Por la calleja vienen Extraños unicornios. De qué campo? De qué bosque mitológico? Más cerca, Ya, parecen astrónomos.” “Along the little street come Strange unicorns.

I THINK OF THE FAMOUS POET, García Lorca as we land at Málaga, Spain, get our rental cars and head to the historic town of Ronda (pop. 35,000), our first of three Semana Santa or Holy Week stops. This is at least our 10th Semana Santa trip to Spain, starting in 1999 when we went to Caravaca de la Cruz in the region of Murcia. That first night we joined a huge crowd at midnight and watched in awe as the enormous wooden doors of the cathedral came creaking open and two lines of men dressed in black with huge, white peaked hats slowly emerged, holding lanterns. The peaked hats made them look like the Ku Klux Klan and brought back memories of a terrifying experience with the Klan when we were civil rights workers in North Carolina in 1965. These hats and robes stand for penitence, however, and the people wearing them — men, women and children — are penitents or “penitentes” or “nazarenos.” Fascinated by this ritual, we’ve been almost every year since then.

These processions that leave from the various churches at all hours of the day with the “penitentes” dressed like “strange unicorns” as Lorca said, the sound of drums and the piercingly shrill cornets, the women in their black mantillas holding long candles, young men and women swinging lanterns full of burning incense, and finally the huge floats or “pasos” carried by as many as 40 men or women called “costaleros” and bearing the statue of Jesus or the virgin who represents that particular church — it’s an overwhelming mix of emotions and spirituality, even for us who are neither Catholics nor churchgoers. Almost every church has its “cofradía” or brotherhood made up of the men, women and children of the church, a tradition that has passed from generation to generation for centuries in some cases. For example, the Hermandad Sacramental del Santo Sepulcro in Guadix was founded in 1675. Although the most famous celebration takes place in Sevilla, we’ve found it to be crowded

and difficult. Therefore, we’ve chosen Ronda, then Granada (pop. 240,000) and finally Guadix (pop. 20,000), a little known town 40 miles east of Granada that has, for me, the most beautiful procession of all on Easter Sunday called La Cofradía de Cristo Resucitado y Nuestra Señora de la Victoria. The processions in Ronda are particularly well organized for spectators. Even though they leave from different churches at different times, all of them have to come down a narrow pedestrian street (Lorenzo Borrego ) and then cross in front of a viewing stand by the main cathedral. The local officials set up folding chairs along this pedestrian street so that you can watch up close and in comfort with a row of bars behind you if you need something to eat or drink. Our second stop is Granada, Spain’s most varied and interesting city with the must-see Alhambra, museums, history, excellent restaurants, beaches only an hour away, and, just beyond the city, the Sierra Nevada and the two highest mountains in continental Spain.

IF YOU GO... Reservations: This is a very busy time of year so make reservations early. Hotels: I highly recommend the three we stayed in: • Ronda – Hotel San Francisco, recepcion@hotelsanfrancisco-ronda.com. Excellent location within close walking distance of processions as well as restaurants and only $45 a night. • Granada – Hotel Reina Cristina, clients@hotelreinacristina.com. Comfortable, inexpensive ( about $85 a night), excellent cafeteria and restaurant, and located less than two blocks from procession viewing area. • Guadix – Hotel Cuevas Pedro Antonio de Alarcón, info@ cuevaspedroantonio.es. This is a cave/hotel and ours had comfortable bedrooms for all five of us. The cost was about $26 per person per night. Meals: Most processions are at night so it’s much easier to stop in bars for tapas than to try to schedule a sit-down dinner. Your hotels will have recommendations. Information: Each town publishes a little booklet with the names of the processions, the departure times and their routes.

As in Ronda, all of the processions have to come up a narrow pedestrian street (Calle Jáudenes) to the cathedral. Chairs are set out for spectators and a young woman named Patricia collects 7 Euros for each. For a photographer, this is invaluable because you’re extremely close — you can reach out and touch the paso as it goes by, you’re not fighting crowds and Patricia is there to make sure that no one obstructs your view. On Easter Sunday, we drive 40 miles east to Guadix, an ancient town founded by Julius Caesar in 45 AD and initially named Julia Gemella Acci. Years later Moors lived there and named it “GuadhHaix” which means River of Life.

What is unusual about Guadix is that thousands of the residents live in caves that are painted with lime, well cared for, full of old family photos and which keep a stable temperature during both the frigid winters and the blazing hot summers. Over the years I’ve come to know many of the residents and am having a show of photographs of them in Guadix this coming August. The procession that I like so much leaves from the cemetery at 5 p.m. There are two floats, Jesus, which is carried by men, and Nuestra Señora de la Victoria, which is carried by women. The combination of the late-afternoon light, the colors of the clothing of

the penitents, a little bit of wind, the music and the sense of mystery, solemnity and spirituality make this my favorite of all the many processions I’ve seen. Unfortunately it began to rain about 15 minutes after the start and the procession had to be cancelled. Next year then! Morgan Smith is a former Aspenite now living in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

MUSIC/ART/FILM/LITERATURE

by ANDREW TRAVERS

OUT OF THE BLUE WHY IS THE SKY BLUE? There’s a scientific explanation, of course, but a new show at the Aspen Art Museum isn’t interested in that straightforward of an answer. “The Blue of Distance,” including 12 works from 10 artists, instead explores the color and its metaphorical connection to desire and uncertainty. “The idea was about the distance between the things that we desire and our ability to obtain them,” says curator Courtenay Finn. “No matter how far your eye can see on the horizon, it’s not a place you can arrive at.” Some of the works in the show are literally quite blue. A few are not, but are ideas of blueness. Cy Twombly scribbles blue crayon across a page in “Untitled (Roman Note).” Catherine Opie, best known for her photo portraits, here offers a series of eight photos of the Alaska landscape, shot in a single day on Glacier Bay, which, like the Aspen Art Museum show, borrows its title, “The Blue of Distance,” from writer and historian Rebecca Solnit. Felix Gonzalez-Torres contributes a stack of blue paper in “Untitled Blue Mirror).” But they’re as fleeting as the horizon: viewers are invited to take a piece from the pile. Ceryth Wyn Evans’ neon piece reads “Things are conspicuous in their absence.” Its lights are reflected — literally — in Sara VanDerBeek’s blue glass print of an inky night sky, “Turned Stairs/Stars.” Roni Horn’s “Untitled (‘It had grown cold in the night but he was numb with other weathers.’)” is a glass cast sculpture of shimmering aqua blue. Marie Jager’s sound piece, “L’heure blue,” brings the sound of a morning bird into the gallery (its name comes from a French expression for the time of day when birds of the night and day both sleep and are silent). Jason Dodge’s contribution is folded, tied pieces of burlap on the ground. Its title says it’s “the color of a storm at night,” which may or may not actually be blue. The work that instantly calls for your attention, though, is Paul

A S P E N T I M E S W E E K LY

Ramirez Jonas’ massive “Paper Moon (I create as I speak).” The participatory work includes a 600-plus page text, on which the sentence “I create as I speak” is written repeatedly. Pages on the wall form a 20-foot moon, with one page of it on a lectern beside a microphone. You’re invited to read it silently or into the mic. “That’s something I’m always

interested in,” Jonas says. “How to make the spectator into an active participant.” The phrase, Jonas explains, is a translation of the magic spell incantation “Abracadabra,” through which participants can help create a (yes, blue) moon. From across the exhibition, Jonas’ work appears to be only that.

“When you walk in the gallery, you think you immediately understand what it is,” says Finn. “Then when you get up close, it’s totally different. So there’s a distance that happens in this piece, that some of the other pieces are hinting at, that we think we know things. But as we move closer, we learn more and more.” This conceptually ambitious group show, in a downstairs gallery at the museum, is a multi-sensory, multimedia experience that — whatever you take away from it — will change the way you think about the blues. atravers@aspentimes.com

BOOK REVIEW

‘OUR SOULS AT NIGHT’ KENT HARUF RETURNS to Holt County, Colorado, in his final work of fiction. The terrain he mined throughout his career in novels like “Plainsong” and “Eventide” here hosts a tender story of love and friendship between two widowed Holt residents. As “Our Souls at Night” opens, Addie invites her neighbor, Louis, over to spend the night. Not for sex, she warns, but to help her through the lonely night by sleeping beside her. He obliges, and a sweet, simple friendship is formed. The small town gossips about them, but in their old age, the pair simply doesn’t care anymore about what the townsfolk think. Addie’s son’s disapproval proves harder to shake off. This spare and wise novel is the

NOTEWORTHY work of a writer who, in his final effort, distilled his craft to its essence and created something timeless in the process. Haruf, who died in November at 71, writes in unadorned prose that’s as stripped-bare as the need Addie and Louis feel for one another. “It’s better than I had hoped for,” Addie tells Louis. “It’s a kind of mystery. I like the friendship of it. I like the time together. Being here in the dark night. The talking. Hearing you breathe next to me if I wake up.” Through their mutual need for companionship, for having someone to wake up next to, Addie and Louis begin opening up about their lives, their dreams, who they were and who they became over a lifetime.

The novel includes a fishing trip to the Roaring Fork Valley and a brief playful self-referential chapter where Addie and Louis go to see a play based on a book by a writer who sounds a lot like Haruf (“He took the physical details from Holt, the place names of the streets and what the country looks like and the locations of things, but it’s not this town.”). It’s a welcome touch for fans saying goodbye to a Colorado literary legend in this bittersweet final chapter.
