hen most folks think marquees, silver screens, hot white spotlights and the director’s chair, they think, “I’ve got to get the hell out of Worcester.” Not so for every aspiring filmmaker with stars in their eyes. In this week’s cover, C. Kelleher Harris shows us that Worcester has its fair share of aspiring filmmakers. Showing us that creativity and inspiration can be found within the boundaries of our own city, we’ve turned our lens on those in Worcester putting their creativity to film right here in our own little piece of Hollywood.

moves normally happen to real-estate companies that owe tax money or are run from afar. “We’re the total opposite,” he says. But he did say that part of their push to clean up the building got rid of some of the drug dealers who are not tenants but would hang around the front steps. The Worcester Police Department said that the owners hired two police officers on four-hour details every day of the week at various times. As a reminder that cleaning up the building comes hand in hand with cleaning up the surrounding sidewalks on Main and the abutting Jackson streets, on Tuesday, June 28, WPD vice-squad members working undercover arrested three people on drug and weapons charges after a drug deal took place on Jackson Street. The three met each other in front of the Albion, but none of those involved lived there. The Worcester Police Department did not answer a reporter’s question asking if they have been seen dealing or buying drugs outside of that building before. Rienecker says drug deals occur on the corner of Main and Jackson because dealers don’t want to stand next to the Jacob Hiatt Magnet School, across the street from the Albion. (Though the penalties for dealing drugs across the street from the school should be just as harsh as selling them on school property, as the Albion sits well inside the 1,000 feet school zone.) He praised the police officers for their work, adding that they’ve even gone so far as to point out to management the tenants who they know encourage drug use within the building. “They leave instantly,” he says when they’re confronted by management. “[Other tenants] have very much responded

positively to the police being here.” Rienecker proudly points out that the prostitution on Jackson Street has moved further down the block. In interviews with Worcester Mag, tenants have had a mixed reaction to the changes. “I’m much happier now,” said Shirley Pearson, a four-year resident of the Albion. “It wasn’t management [causing the problems], it was the people.” “[They’ve] definitely done a lot of improvements,” said one resident who didn’t want to give his name, but who has clashed with management in the past. “Nothing major; cosmetic stuff.” Another long-time tenant complained via email that known drug dealers still reside in the building, and those who have been removed weren’t as much of a concern as those who still remain. She also would’ve liked to see more management and staff changes. There’s also some discrepancy about the effect that the closing of People In Peril (PIP) shelter has had on the building. Tenants say when the PIP shelter closed, residents moved into the Albion. Rienicker disputes that. The Southern Middlesex Opportunity Council, the organization which ran the PIP and now handles the replacement triage center, said the Albion was not one of the places the group chose for clients’ permanent housing. The responsibility for the culture of the building falls into the hands of both the tenants and the owners - that’s something both sides seem to agree on. Professional cleaning and increased security are first steps to an end, but both 765 Realty and the City will have to prove how much - or how little - change it’s fostered at the Albion.

Cyber attack Unclear action coming for cyber cafés Jeremy Shulkin
A
ttorney Robert Murphy knew what he was getting into on Thursday afternoon when he appeared on behalf of three of the city’s cyber cafés – internet and phone-card stores where customers can play games with the chance of winning prizes. Two of the three businesses, City Cyber and Sky Net, have already opened in Worcester but sought TV and radio licenses. The third, Cadillac Internet Café, looked for similar permits but has paused construction on its business ever since Martha Coakley, the state’s attorney general, has come down hard on these businesses, calling them a creative way to circumvent the state’s gambling laws. “The regulation makes clear that companies cannot skirt our laws by disguising gambling as something else, such as the sale of Internet access. These establishments were illegal when they started, and they are illegal now,” she said in a June 24 press release. The attorney general’s office targets Cyber Cafés where patrons pay for Internet access to video-slot machines and virtual lotteries, and phone-card sweepstakes where the purchase of a calling card comes with a receipt that marks whether or not the patron has, by chance, won money. The state calls this “de facto gambling,” arguing it breaks the Consumer Protection Act, which reads “[I]t is unfair or deceptive in violation of [c. 93A] for any person to engage in a business or engage in a transaction where a gambling purpose predominates over the bona fide sale of bona fide goods or services.” But Cyber Café owners in Worcester argue the games come second to the services. In other words, people come to use the Internet and the phone, and they might as well play a predetermined game to see if they’ve won some of the money back that they spent. “How’s it work? … For every $1.00 in phone time you purchase? [sic] you receive 100 free entries into one of our new and exciting sweepstakes games … Ever hear of publishers clearing house sweepstakes? Same concept – you are purchasing a product and are rewarded with free entries to win money!” wrote Jennifer Hutchings, manager of City Cyber Café, on Social Web. “Say you loose your fee entry points? You walk out and still have the phone time you purchased!” Café owners say there’s little actual gambling involved. While it’s a matter of chance that a customer will win money, it’s randomized and preset once there’s
a cash transaction. The games involved make the process more entertaining than just getting “winner” or “loser” stamped on a receipt. But since the attorney general’s latest warning, that’s about all the talking that these café owners have done. Murphy represented City Cyber, Skynet and Cadillac at Thursday’s license-commission meeting. Cadillac’s owners watched from the gallery, but avoided reporters after the hearing. When contacted by phone, Matt Durand, the owner of North Carolinabased Net Play Cyber Café said, “I have no comment for you guys.” Murphy did not return calls put in to his Springfield office. Neith has Hutchings. At the license-commission hearing, however, Murphy argued that these are “legitimate businesses” and as long as these businesses still have customers, the city should allow them TV and radio licenses. “What the attorney general’s office may or may not do regarding this industry remains to be seen,” Murphy says. “The
board is looking at things other than the site itself.” Still, Chairman Peter Lukes argued that in light of the most recent attorney general’s statements, these establishments were clearly illegal in Massachusetts and so no new permits would be issued. He clarified that the City gave business permits to three of the four cyber-café applicants because no one knew exactly what they were when they first applied. “The ones prior to [the June 24 statement] were a little hazy,” Lukes said in a phone interview after the meeting, about Coakley’s clarifications. William Breault of the Main South Alliance for Public Safety asked to give a statement at the license-commission hearing as well. “The law says they can’t operate,” he yelled to the board. “Close them down.” Lukes reiterated during and after the meeting that the license commission can only approve and revoke permits for already operating establishments. Closing
down a business falls into different hands. “The bottom line is it is an enforcement issue,” for local or state police. It has been enforced in other parts of the state. In March, cyber cafés in Chicopee, Fairhaven and Fall River were closed down and had some video games confiscated. “Investigations are ongoing. These internet cafes that operate in violation of the law may be subject to enforcement action, civil penalties, injunctions or other reliefs under the Consumer Protection Act,” said Brad Puffer, the director of communications for the state’s Attorney General office. Lawyers could be eyeing an overturn of the regulations in court. Lukes alluded to this in comments at the licensecommission meeting (to which Murphy didn’t respond) and a 2007 state Supreme Court ruling found in favor of cyber cafés. For now, City Cyber and Net Play are still open for business, though. Even with no TV or music licenses, City Cyber was packed on a recent Friday afternoon.

It’s a homecoming of sorts for the Sherwood Diner, a now-historic dining car that used to sit where the front doors of the DCU Center stand today before the Redevelopment Authority took it away in 1969. On Tuesday, the diner left its nine-year home in Cranston, R.I., for Sutton, where Blackstone Valley Technical High School students may refurbish the car for use as the latest installment of the Blackstone Valley Visitor’s Center slated for McKeon Road, a plan B of sorts after arsonists destroyed the Washburn and Moen building last year. “The ďŹ re is just a setback. A lot of people thought it was dead. It’s not dead. We’re moving forward,â€? says Jeannie Hebert of the Blackstone Valley Chamber of Commerce. $5.4 million from the U.S. Department of Transportation and another $1.6 million in a matching state grant will move this project forward. The Sherwood Diner has a crammed history: moving between stints in Worcester, Auburn, Medford and Cranston, R.I., and spending some time as a Tasty Freeze, the car once belonged to the family of Virginia Ryan, who watched Tuesday’s move every step of the way. Her father, Ernest Ryan, ran the diner from 1943 until he died in 1966. Her mother took over, keeping the books and making pies. As a strange coincidence, Ernest Ryan ran for city council (and lost) while in charge of the diner, and now, as it makes its return to Worcester, his daughter has just started her own bid for a council seat.

AN ANALOGY NOT FIT FOR THE SAT: Major political gaffes
normally come from politicians either new to the scene or leaked private conversations, so it was somewhat surprising to see twodecade Mass. House veteran John Binienda (D-Worcester) make an inammatory analogy to reporters, where he likened a Republican-backed ethics bill that would force lobbyists to wear visible IDs to the Nazis tattooing numbers on Jews’ forearms in concentration camps. But at least someone’s speaking out for the poor, persecuted state house lobbyist‌Binienda may have been making a larger point (his ofďŹ ce did not return phone calls asking for clariďŹ cation) that these reforms, while sounding comprehensive in the wake of the guilty verdict in former Speaker of House Salvatore DiMasi’s ethics trial, don’t amount to much. According to reports, other Democratic leaders in the House (including Speaker Robert DeLeo) have said they will give consideration to the Republican-backed reforms, which include barring House members from contacting state agencies about pending contracts and employment referrals, name tags for lobbyists, equaling the number of Democrats and Republicans on the Ethics Committee consideration, and mandating that House members report unethical behavior they become privy to. “How exactly do you make crime more illegal?â€? asked Vincent Pedone (D-Worcester), who echoed other Democratic lawmakers’ sentiments that some of the reforms in this bill are either unenforceable or rehashes of laws already on the books. “I would think we need to report illegal activity anyway,â€? he continued, but added the proposals are worth discussion.

TESTIFY: Massachusetts legislators held a hearing last week at the state house on proposed legislation that would legalize marijuana for medicinal use with a controlled system much like in Maine and Rhode Island. Worcester senator Harriette Chandler and former Worcester Public Health Commissioner Leonard Morse both testiďŹ ed, though reports of what side they fell on were unclear (neither could be reached by press time). Bill Downing, a spokesman for MassCann, the state branch of the National Organization to Reform Marijuana Laws, said Morse spoke of the dangers of legalizing the drug for medicinal use because of its “gatewayâ€? nature and it would send the wrong message to children, but especially because it wouldn’t fall under FDA approval. Later on Downing said Morse added that he thought doctors should be able to prescribe it to patients. Want more Worcesteria? Check out worcestermag.com/blogs/dailyworcesteria.

Report WARNING: Worcester city council is hazardous to free speech Gary Rosen
O
ur mayor and city councilors are turning Worcester into a nanny city. They continue to offer us protection that is as unwanted, unneeded and expensive as that once provided to South Boston businesses by notorious mobster, Whitey Bulger. The council’s latest folly, passage of an unconstitutional antismoking ordinance, shows a complete lack of wisdom, common sense and respect for freedom of speech. And it’s about to cost us taxpayers a bundle of money. This misguided ordinance was the result of much research and investigation by a group of activist and tenacious teen members of the advocacy group, HOPE Coalition (Healthy Options for Prevention and Education). To try to lower the high rate of smoking in Worcester, these idealistic youth and their adult leaders educated, lobbied and convinced the city council to pass an antismoking ordinance that ignores the First Amendment free-speech rights of tobacco manufacturers and retailers. How ironic it is that some members of this city council tried to punish Arizona for what they saw as an assault on the constitutional rights of illegal immigrants in that state. Yet they chose to trample over the constitutionally protected free-speech and product-advertisement rights of the tobacco companies. On hold because of litigation filed in U.S. Federal District Court in Massachusetts, Worcester’s antismoking ordinance bans outdoor and most
indoor tobacco advertising visible from city streets, parks and schools. It basically bans all advertising of this completely legal product. It’s naive, arrogant and anti-business of this city council to allow retailers to sell cigarettes but to prevent them from using advertising displays. Are the heads of these politicians as empty as their speech? Even worse, Worcester’s embattled residential and commercial taxpayers now must pay to clean up the city council’s mess. We are being sued by Philip Morris, R.J. Reynolds, Lorillard, and the National Association of Tobacco Outlets. And representing the tobacco giants will be a host of bright, experienced and aggressive lawyers. So don’t expect a heartwarming Old Testament ending to this fight. Worcester officials justify this waste of taxpayer dollars by citing recent federal law, the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act, which gives local governments greater yet still limited authority to regulate tobacco marketing based on smoking and health concerns for the entire population. Many legal experts think that Worcester has gone too far in its interpretation of this federal law. The city councilors need to earn their inflated $28,000 salaries by addressing the real financial, social and educational issues facing our city. Thankfully the city council can’t ban the November municipal elections. Perhaps the election of a few new and sensible councilors will be a statement that we are tired of living in a nanny city.

LOCAL FILMMAKERS FIND CREATIVITY AT HOME tunes, Gamble says Worcester has always felt like a home worth returning to. “While I was touring with the bands, I found myself spending a lot of time in cities and towns that reminded me of Worcester,” Gamble recalls. Gamble developed a longing to return to Worcester and get back to independent film making. “Worcester on film looks so amazing,” Gamble explains. “It’s a pretty cool movie set, and that’s inspiring.” Worcester native, Ben Allotey has just completed
When one thinks of the city of Worcester on the silver screen, those in the know may tell you about the few big-budget films that have recently shot on location here: 2010’s “Knight and Day” starring Tom Cruise and Cameron Worcester native, Ben Allotey Diaz; 2009’s “Surrogates” has just completed his first starring Bruce Willis; and independent full-length film “The Maiden Heist” starring shot entirely in Worcester. Christopher Walken and Morgan Freeman. Yet most are unaware that for many aspiring filmmakers who call Worcester home, the city offers a flourishing community of like-minded talents and a supportive pool of resources and inspiration.
At just 16, Sergio Castillo helped put Worcester on the map with an award-winning documentary. Castillo’s film work began after he joined Worcester’s Toxic Soil Busters – a youth-led organization that focuses on keeping Worcester clean of lead contamination through free lead testing and cleanups. The group made a documentary short entitled “A Worcester Environmental Justice Story.” The documentary focuses on the Toxic Soil Busters efforts to clean up STEVEN KING
SMALL SCREEN Independent film writer,
director, editor and producer John Stimpson has worked in Los Angeles in the film industry but his preferred movie hub is Worcester. “It’s a town that offers everything you need,” Stimpson says, “as far as locations and opportunities.”
Stimpson, who has made four independent feature films including “The Legend of Lucy Keyes,” which was shot in Stimpson’s native Princeton, says that Worcester is a “great place” to shoot and says he’s here to stay. Filmmaker and musician Kaz Gamble agrees with Stimpson. The 36 year-old Gamble, who was born and raised in Worcester, attended New York University where he studied film. He worked for 10 years in the Big Apple and later went to Los Angeles to focus on the industry. But eventually, he too, returned to Worcester to pursue his career. With two bands, Bad Ronald and later Cooler Kids, Gamble’s musical talents were featured in the television series “Smallville,” and big screen hiss “Scary Movie,” “Not another Teen Movie,” and “The Lizzie McGuire Movie.” Plus, Gamble’s band signed with Warner Brothers and released an album to rave international reviews. Now in a duo group called Gamble and Burke, who have found a level of success with their catchy, danceable
his first independent full-length film shot entirely in Worcester. Locations featured in his film “Dead Giveaway” include Green Island, The Raven on Pleasant Street, Patriot Pizza, The Cantina and Spoodles. Allotey is in the early stages of developing Wor-town Productions with friend Joe Black. “Wor-town’s whole purpose and emphasis is to put Worcester on the cinematic map,” Allotey says. “We want to do for film what Motown did for music. We want to be our own bosses.” Allotey entered the filmmaking industry after studying and working in the television-broadcast industry. He and Black are currently seeking a distributor for “Dead Giveaway.”
the city and bring lead poisoning to the community’s attention. Castillo, although having no previous film experience, co-directed the short. “I didn’t see it coming. Because of them, I’m a filmmaker,” declares Castillo, now 18. Castillo’s short went on to garner several awards, including first place in the National EPA “Faces of the Grassroots: Environmental Justice Video Contest.” Most recently the film won two more awards, one at the International Kids First! Film Festival (the world’s largest youth film festival); the other, the heart award for Best Youth Produced Film at the San Diego Latino Film Festival.

Andrea Ajemian dreamed of being an actress ever since she was used as an extra in a low-budget horror film when she was a preteen. While pursuing her acting career in Los Angeles, Ajemian became interested in film
Gamble’s documentary will focus on how the oncebooming metropolis of Worcester was affected by misguided attempts to improve the city. “In trying to save the city they inadvertently destroyed it,” Gamble says. But Gamble sees hope for Worcester’s future – his documentary will also focus on current revitalization
Above: John Stimpson has worked in Los Angeles in the film industry but his preferred movie hub is Worcester. “It’s a town that offers everything you need,” he says.
“I used to be afraid of walking down the street after dark,” says Gamble. “But now with the Hanover Theatre being renovated and opened up, it’s changed the whole feel of this section.” “I think it’s really cool,” conveys Ajemian, who also lives in downtown Worcester. Between films, Ajemian works on editing and producing corporate commercials. Together Gamble and Ajemian have worked on several successful independent films. Their film “Boy Band” was filmed entirely in Worcester. The movie, set in 1982, tells the story of a high-school jock who dreams of joining a boy band. After he is rejected by one group, he sets out to create his own. One reviewer described the offbeat comedy as a mix between “Glee” and “Napoleon Dynamite.” Among Gamble’s own projects was the 2008 documentary “My Brother Tom.” This film, written and directed by Gamble, focuses on his real-life brother who suffers from Asperger’s Syndrome, but was undiagnosed for most of his life. The film is personal, illuminating and at times painful, and was nominated as best short film at the Woods Hole Film Festival. (A special screening of “My Brother Tom” will be held July 21 at the Jacobs Edwards Library. The film begins at 6:30 p.m.) AA Films also created and produced a Web series called Worcester Love, which they call the “video guide to everything there is to love about Worcester County with an emphasis on locally owned businesses, cultural diversity and environmental sustainability.” Although not filmed entirely in Worcester, in collaboration with director Stimpson, AA Films will be releasing the holiday movie “A Christmas Kiss” later this year. The romantic comedy stars Elisabeth Rohm, Lauren Breckenridge and Brendan Fehr, and will premiere on the ION Network in December. Stimpson, Gamble and Ajemian also just completed shooting an independent film “Shattered Silence,”

production itself. “I was in films, and I thought ‘Why don’t I just make my own?’” Ajemian recalls, adding, “I’m self-taught.” But Ajemian, too, decided to return to seek her passion and dream career in Worcester. “What I love about working in Worcester is that it has so many great locations. People are excited about films,” she shares. “I came back in 2006, and I started falling in love with being here.”
ON THE MAP For all of these filmmakers, bringing attention to Worcester is a strong motivator behind their locally developed and produced films. Gamble, for instance, is currently working on an independent documentary about the history of Worcester.
“I started by doing research about what happened to cities [like Worcester] after World War II,” Gamble explains. For example, he notes that to make way for building highways, people would be forced out of their homes and whole communities would be cleared out.

attempts in Worcester. Ajemian has a similar vision for Worcester. “[We] are trying hard to be part of the revitalization of Worcester,” Ajemian says. Together Gamble and Ajemian formed Artigo Ajemian Films, a production company centered on Portland Street in downtown Worcester. Ajemian has produced or coproduced six full-length independent features, as well as several short films. AA Films, as it is known, has a compact but a fully functioning production office in the Printers Building. The office features an editing room for film and another for music, production offices, a costume room and a green screen. “I don’t know anybody else who has a set up like us,” tells Ajemian. Both Ajemian and Gamble are impressed with the transformation that Portland Street has made in the short years that they have been occupying the Printers Building.
which used locations such as Worcester State University, Worcester Academy, Burncoat High School and the Tatnuck Square area. The film focuses on the topic of cyber bullying, and its effects on high-school students. “We take this tough topic and give it a positive spin. It’s a difficult subject, but we handle it in a responsible way,” Stimpson, a 50 year-old resident of Princeton, says of the movie.
CLEAR RECEPTION Stimpson remarks that
filming in Worcester is a positive experience and that the city’s people are receptive and welcoming to such creative projects. “Coming to a place like Worcester, people are really excited,” Stimpson reveals. “They say, ‘Yes! I want to help,’ ’Yes! I want to be involved.’ The community welcomes me with open arms.”
Stimpson says that an additional advantage of filming in Worcester is the ability to help fledgling film makers get a start. “We have been able to help young people to get a start or spark a career,” he continues, pointing to another advantage of filming in Worcester. “I love making the magic happen. I love seeing the actors bring words alive. I love seeing the confluence of good performances and good camera work come together,” Stimpson says. “There is nothing better than seeing an audience be moved by work that I’m a part of.” “I plan on doing a series of movies in Worcester,” reveals Allotey, who also wants to keep Worcester as the center of his independent features. “It [Worcester] is not looked at as a film Mecca, but if I keep working, it has potential.” “I noticed nobody was capturing the Worcester I know and I grew up with,” Allotey divulges. “I wanted to capture aspects of inner city Worcester.” Allotey, who both writes and directs, is currently editing his film “Dead Giveaway.” The full-length independent film is a thriller that tells the story of four friends who have fallen on hard times and turned to crime as a way out. But a robberygone-bad and a haunted gun botch their plans. Allotey initially planned “Dead Giveaway” as a short film, but later decided to make it full length so that audiences could become “emotionally invested” in the characters. Currently, he is also planning to produce a soundtrack for “Dead Giveaway” and encourages local musicians to contact him with their work ranging from R&B to techno. Allotey says that he looks forward to creating comedies, action films and Web series. He also wants to put a new slant on horror movies. “I want to unleash my own brand of horror films, not the cliché,” he explains. “I have many kinds of stories. I’m not a one-trick pony.” Castillo, who graduated this year from University Park Campus school, says that he hopes to focus on documentary

films that heighten social awareness. “It would be great spreading the word of all injustices—food injustice, social injustice, politics and Palestine,” Castillo admits. Likewise, he hopes to break down stereotypes with is community involvement and socially conscience documentaries. “I’m trying to destroy the stereotype that youth are lazy,” Castillo says, noting that he would like to see more organizations like Toxic Soil Busters for the area’s young people. “I see a lot of youth without opportunities. There should be more jobs for youth groups so kids have something to do.” Castillo also has a penchant for action. Currently producing action shorts and posting them on YouTube, Castillo hopes to eventually earn a living from his burgeoning craft. He has plans now to attend Worcester State University and pursue a career in sociology, but hopes to become both a community organizer and filmmaker.

they do find genuine joy in the work that they do. “I love Worcester,” Castillo says. “But I would love to go to Boston or New York City to spread [my message]. Video is the international language.” “I have to make my own foot prints in the sand,” Allotey reveals. “I want people to say ‘Hey! That’s a Ben Allotey picture!’ I want to focus on all aspects of culture in Worcester. We [Wor-town] want to be national and worldwide. We are going for the gusto.” “I find it so satisfying,” says Gamble. “It is a battle to get everyday done, but I love that process. What you put into something you get out of it.” Gamble says that he is energized by the creative conglomeration that goes into each film. “One of the things that surprised me is the inspiration people find from working together. You get a synergy from working on a project.” “To have the response ‘Oh wow, Worcester looks so cool! Worcester on film looks amazing!’…that is inspiring,” Gamble adds, while encouraging other filmmakers to come to Worcester for inspiration. “My quality of life is better than it was in New York or Los Angeles. Worcester is an amazing place for an artist. You do find support as an artist here.” “I’d really like to see Worcester become a big independent location,” Ajemian admits. “I would like to build up a large talent base.” “It’s intriguing and glamorous and exotic,” Stimpson says of filmmaking. “What I love more than anything is sitting alone in the editing room and putting it all together. This is so special. What an amazing thing we do here.”
“Like being anywhere away from a big-production hub, there is the issue of the ease of getting a crew,” Stimpson points out. “[There is] an additional cost of finding a cast and crew. You inevitably need to bring people in and put them up.” But Stimpson is not discouraged by such difficulties. “In reality, we’re not that far. We’re less than an hour from Boston. It’s a really good compromise,” he concedes. Allotey found similar difficulties during his shoot, indicating that he and his crew had to work hard at pooling resources and garnering support of the community, which did not always come easy in part because some people were skeptical that a film made in Worcester would go anywhere. “There are more people in Boston with [film] experience,” Ajemian says. “As projects and budgets get bigger, the needs grow more. You have to work to raise money and that is a challenging process.” Yet still, there are other potential drawbacks to independent film production no matter where you go. “It is a lot of long hours and a lot of work [plus] there is not a lot of money,” says Ajemian. “[But] I think that it’s interesting that we’re doing work in Worcester like they are doing in New York or Los Angeles.” Like all filmmakers, Allotey, Stimpson, Castillo, Ajemian and Gamble have big dreams. And although they aren’t snagging marquees at major movie theaters,

Seducing the Soul to Ecstasy Discourses in Desolation
Paul Grignon
Dreamscapes, daemons, deities and death are purportedly present in the paintings of Brian Burris, but perhaps something wholly different and parallel pervades the spare and barren scenes that will grace the walls of the Aurora Gallery come the 15th of July.
Broken is the title of the exhibit and 10 large acrylic paintings will entice the viewer to ponder the infinite, the eternal, our existence within the realm of the subconscious. Are we indeed alive or are we, simultaneously, entwined with the omnipotent and utter oblivion? Such queries persist, and his ethereal works will captivate the patron into questioning for themselves the base perception of being human. What is seen, spoken or sought by peering keenly into
the darkled depths of these stark, striking and psychologically powerful paintings will resonate in every singular soul. “To me, the act of painting is dying in ecstasy, those Roman heights and nadir,” Burris states. “That is what it takes to touch people—without words—through only primal images. Soul. That is what I mean when I speak of my paintings ensouled.” His minimalist approach touches upon a myriad of subjects, from God, the spiritual, to archetypal imagery and
beyond. “My work tends to speak to those who have suffered great trauma, people who have had terrible childhoods, or who have seen their share of horror,” Burris elucidated. “But then, ultimately, people project their own daemons onto the paintings. I leave room for people’s projections.” Burris works in a large format, covering his canvases with an array of painting techniques that produces a startling repertoire of haunting visions. “I refer to my process as ‘aleatory,’ which
is progressing through guided chance. Once the composition is set in motion, I allow the paint to extend according to its own properties, through its own progression,” Burris explains. The various techniques employed, such as abrasion and distressing the acrylic surface with enzymes and chemicals, results in happenstance formations. These chance shapes and patterns that materialize allow Burris to enter the world of nomind, where the painting itself is imbued with its own soul, or numen, taking the artist within its labyrinthine and divine intersections. The title piece, “Broken,” is such an example, where initially one witnesses only abstraction. But slowly something appears, a Christ-like figure with arms extended, emerging from the chaotic explosions that radiate from the center. Riven in black and blue, the canvas erupts with fragments shattered from the defiant savior. A wan, attenuated bleached aura surrounds the figure, as a murky, stygian blackness envelops the base. The taut messiah glares wildeyed, the tension palpable amidst the fulmination. What message is conveyed within this paroxysm, this turbulent, torn and troubling apparition that echoes the negative effect of the Shroud of Turin? One can only stand, transfixed, absorbed by the gnosis enclosed within. “The Hanging Tree,” despite its appellation, appears pastoral, but the title makes one pause to ponder its rather dolorous designation. The largest of the 10 paintings, Burris has presented a mystical scene, bucolic environs laced with a hint of dread and trepidation. The canvas, with its tenuously pastel hues, seems innocuous, but the name alone sends frissons of terror upon one’s nape, knowing that within this rural solitude horror and death are present. Nina Simone’s wrenching version of “Strange Fruit” comes to mind, as one narrows his or her focus onto the brindled remnants of the gallows tree. Here, amid a verdant lea and pale cerulean skies, unfathomable revulsion grips the horizon. Beneath the sward, a ribbon of red flows, a forlorn reminder of utter depravity and despair.
“Signal Rising,” hypnotic in its ethereal allure, provides a glimpse into an alien, spectral, universal vista of the unconscious, where time, the infinite and eternity are intertwined in a dance of ghostly evanescence. Stream of consciousness takes over, and one is immediately transported into unknown empyrean realms, where mind, body and thought processes are subdued, inert yet mesmerized by the dizzying supernal nightscape that triggers primal and ancient aspects of existence. Cheerless, desolate, and tinged with melancholy, a deep foreboding pervades the soul. But upon further perusal, a sense of peacefulness embraces one so fraught with phantom fears. The painting subliminally hints at calm and unity within the omniscient energy that saturates such celestial seas. Caressed by the soft susurrations of endless nocturnal winds, all solemn souls are thus soothed. “I go to a place that pushes the limits of mind and imagination,” Burris states. “Art should be an exploration to try to find the seed of truth.” Burris, commenting on the fact that he has to dwell and function in the ordinary world, shares that, “When I’m in my studio, I let out the sequestered madman to paint and plumb the torture of existence. If part of me is mad, then surely I keep him on a short leash.” His work, enthralling and exhilarating, will surely have resonance to all who gaze within his compelling and enigmatic art, a glimpse into the depths of the sublime. Broken will be showing upstairs at the ARTSWorcester Aurora Gallery, 660 Main St., Worcester, from July 15-August 19. Opening reception: July 15, 6-8 p.m. The event is free and open to the public. For more information, go to artsworcester. org. The artist can be reached at burrisworks.com.

Dear ArchieI want to write you a question but I’m afraid you’re just some hipster pretender. -Fred Fred, I am a hipster, and to be more speciďŹ c a Hipster Doofus, but the words are real so give it a shot. My email is at the bottom of the column or you can go to the Archie blog and submit your questions anonymously. http://askarchiewomag. blogspot.com/
Coffee is certainly a popular subject with this column. The rudeness is part of the charm of most coffee houses isn’t it? You could go for ditzy college cuties at Nu CafÊ or intellectual snobbery at Acoustic Java on Main Street. But if you want a good regular cup of joe, the next time you’re at Culpepper’s at Cambridge and Southbridge streets, the coffee is on me.
certainly top my list — any pizza that Archiecould feature Romaine lettuce and make it Word association — best pizza in work impresses me. Blue Jeans has some Worcester? Please note — I hate this great Chicago-style pizza, and Flats is very good too. “Greek-style pizza� around here. -Hungry girl Dear ArchieI wrote to you several weeks ago, and you advised me to get over my nervousness in talking to a girl I liked by reacting to her like she was just one of my friends. I wanted to let you know that it worked like a charm! You are the man! The best relationships start out as friends and continue with an element of that friendship. You’re going to be spending a lot of time with this person — you should enjoy being with them. Glad I was able to help.

Experiential Transmutations
{ arts }
The Evolution of Self
Paul Grignon
The lot of any artist is riddled with infinite queries as to their respective place upon this spinning blue orb called Earth. As such, The Big Boom exhibit at the Dark World Gallery features the work of Scott Boilard, where his
experimental paintings offer a glimpse into the netherworld of self-deconstruction.
Boilard comments on the overarching theme of the show: “The idea is what comes after actions and creations have
already happened; whether it is controlled, fated, random or coincidental. Ultimately, it is what we construct to mold certainty out of an uncertain future.” The exhibit focuses on the myriad of episodic twists and turns that are inherent within every soul, where chaos and disorder reign, and where every day is wholly malleable, changing, fleeting in an attempt to grasp the unattainable. Like Tantalus, the premise of bliss and bounty remain just out of reach.
The eponymously titled centerpiece of the show depicts a gigantic pyrocumulus cloud enveloping the entire canvas, as a basal flow consumes and carbonizes everything in its path. Above, an ash plume swells and engulfs the sky; utter destruction is swift and

complete. Amongst this swirling mass of devastation, a serpentine creature sporting a death-mask visage encircles the pulsating brain-like plume, its farreaching tentacles perhaps denoting the often violent struggles that, at times, inhabit the mind. Slicing the canvas in half is a nimbus, a white vortex ring that possibly connotes the desired peaceful realm, an aura that divides the chaos above and below, a centering that one day might encompass a soul so bereft of inner calm. “The subjects of my work act as metaphors of personal evolution,” Boilard explains. “The paintings are relevant to where I have been at many points; creatively, intellectually and emotionally.” Working in both oils and acrylics, roughly 15 paintings will line the gallery walls. Some, like “The Big Boom,” are quite large at 36-by-48 inches, where others measure 9-by-12 inches. Boilard elaborates upon the ideas behind his art, stating, “The larger oils represent figurative hybrids and distortions of human and creature forms, while the smaller acrylic works explore the concepts of personal, scientific and shared evolution.” In “Struggle For A Place,” Boilard has filled his canvas with a mass of writhing naked bodies, arched and contorted, all vying for their respective place in the universe. Reminiscent of figure studies by Michelangelo, the painting contains a wealth of varying appendages, outstretched arms and legs with splayed fingers and toes, and the exaggerated musculature and torsion recalling the exquisite anatomy intrinsic to the work of Frazetta. “These figures are metaphors of the individual struggles between elation, confusion and wisdom,” Boilard adds.

result is a circular mass of flesh in blues, reds and yellows that allows the viewer to contemplate his or her own personal angst and confusion, a comment upon daily strife and the yearning for clarity and peace of mind. “Medusa Ghost #5” is a smaller oil that harbors the same death-mask creature as in “The Big Boom,” but here, it hovers over a nude woman suspended in space or water, floating along the concourse of existence. The creature’s face, resembling the clown in Hopper’s “Soir Bleu,” gazes at the supine figure, ever vigilant to the unconscious torments, dreams and desires of this skyclad entity. The creature’s tendrils may echo the myriad of paths one takes upon one’s journey into the unknown. In the background, a grid composed of disproportionate lines hint at the many crossroads of life. Recalling a work by Demuth, a faded number five rises from the azure depths, perhaps symbolizing facets experienced whilst meditating upon the many trails and trials of Being. A translucent red arrow thrusts into the picture plane, pointing to an unseen destination. “My subjects pass through episodes of being lost, of searching, sometimes violently or passively, as they seek their place in the grand scheme…if there even is one,” Boilard reflects. Those who venture to peruse these paintings will certainly ponder their own unique place within the infinite perplexities and permutations of the cosmos The Big Boom at the Dark World Gallery, 179 Grafton St., Worcester. Opening reception: July 9, from 7-10 p.m. Show runs through July 30. For more information, call the Dark World at 508459-5798. The artist can be reached at scottboilard.com.

If you can’t beat them, murder them Horrible Bosses Grade: C + David Wildman
When it comes to highconcept buddies-behavingbadly movies the first “Hangover” flick will get little competition from “Horrible Bosses.” The biggest problem is that for the plot to work our three modernday Stooges – Jason Bateman, Charlie Day and Jason Sudeikis – are required to behave not just badly, but very, very stupidly, and yet the script asks us to believe they are in general reasonably intelligent people. This is a tall order.
Each of the above are buddies who have a boss that is so awful and evil that it seems justified they be killed. Nick (Bateman) is a corporate ladder climber whose nemesis Harken (Kevin Spacey) is a mendacious jerk that dangles a promotion in front of him for years and then dashes his hopes and takes the job himself. Dale (Day) works as a dental assistant and is being blatantly sexually harassed by the female dentist he works for (Jennifer Anniston - laying it on thick). Kurt (Sudeikis) works at a chemical company and has a great boss (Donald Sutherland) who promptly drops dead and leaves the place to his crazed cokehead son (Colin Farrell). Okay, so why can’t they just quit? Seems Harkin is willing to claim Nick was a bad worker and ruin his future just out of spite, Dale is a former sex offender (he was arrested for peeing in a school playground at night). Kurt is simply afraid of the crappy job market, illustrated by a friend of theirs who was an exec at Lehman Brothers now forced to give $40 handjobs in a bar. From this we are asked to believe every character has sufficient motivation to conclude that killing their bosses is the best way to solve their predicament.
Conveniently ignored is the obvious fact that any of them could secretly tape their grandstanding nemesis and each would have the grounds for serious lawsuits, without risking a death sentence. But then there would be no movie. Instead they decide to hire a hit man. They go into a bar in the “bad” side of town where actual black people hang, and hire Jamie Foxx (with the ridiculous name of “Motherfucker Jones”) to do the deed, three kills for $5000. He rips them off, as they well deserve, and instead acts as “murder consultant” suggesting they each kill the other’s boss so that there will be no direct motive. “Yeah, just like “Strangers on a Train”” one of them says, and idiotically they all agree. We are supposed to believe they are stupid enough to miss the entire point of that particular movie, which was that the two guys who exchange murders didn’t know each other except for a chance meeting, so they couldn’t be traced to one another. These three bozos all hang out in the same bar every night. Duh! Not to mention that in the plot they plan to emulate things went really, really bad. Anyway, I haven’t told you all that much more than you already know going into the film from seeing the preview. The thing is there really isn’t much more. They do reconnaissance on their potential victims, screw things up; mayhem ensues, leading to an ending that is somewhat surprising, but requires Spacey’s character to be a complete psychopath, not just total asshole, which is too huge a leap to make. It could have been even worse. They could have gone the warm fuzzy route of finding out that their bosses really weren’t so bad after all once they saw the pressures they were under, and so on. Instead they went for dark comedy and made it fun, with easily hateable mendacious cartoon villains, and one-dimensional protagonists (a waste however of Bateman’s abilities), resulting in a slight, silly film with a laugh or two up its sleeve, but little more.

More enjoyable than a trip to the RMV Michael Brazell
Of all of humankind’s shared experiences, there are no more universally reviled activities than a trip to the Registry of Motor Vehicles (“DMV” to all of you out-of-towners): long waits, frustrating service, and the consistent disappointment of never feeling content once you finally leave. One of Worcester’s newer restaurants, The Registry escapes most of the maladies that befall the RMV.
The Registry takes its name from the building that it occupies, the former Worcester Registry of Motor Vehicles,
and in the months since opening, it has adopted a unique décor, marrying concepts of Americana with a celebration of early 20th-century industrial ingenuity, all the while striving for a Mad Men-esque sophistication. The restaurant pronounces its historic location on the back of the menu, and table tops are lacquered with relics of a bygone era in American advertising. The printed reproductions of ads, newspaper clippings and comic strips are a welcome reprieve from the consistently slow and frequently absent service – with our server disappearing at one point for at least 15 minutes, we were left to re-read our kitschy, but then tiresome, retro-elevated auto-garage advertisement. Despite the lackluster service, my co-diner, Nikola, was pleasantly surprised by a large, well breaded, and juicy cut of chicken that starred in his Chicken Parmesan ($14). I ordered the appropriately named Shrimp, Broccoli, & Sausage ($16). While the half-dozen shrimps were tasty, my broccoli was slightly overcooked. Chunks of mild sausage lingered alongside penne in a white wine sauce almost redeemed

itself with garlic and Parmesan cheese. Though our entrées received a passing grade, Nikola and I both agreed that The Registry passed the salad test with flying colors, with fresh, gigantic dinner-sized salads ($3 with an entrée) that preceded our meals, topped with an excellent, homemade creamy balsamic dressing. What The Registry does feature well are excellent sandwiches. The menu hosts an array of giant, juicy burgers, served with seriously great French fries. A favorite is “El Camino,” a beast of a burger, prepared with salsa, slices of avocados, bacon and sour cream. Alongside a dozen similarly gigantic sandwiches, the menu also features a number of appetizers, highlighted by crispy quesadillas; just be sure to avoid

T
his Sunday night, get ready for the show of a lifetime at Ralph’s: “Hedwig and the Angry Inch” will be stopping by for a one-night-only performance. “Hedwig and the Angry Inch” is the musical tale of a lovelorn, “internationally ignored” transgendered rocker on a mission. The audience finds itself at one of Hedwig’s shows as she follows around the country the ex-lover who stole her songs, successful rock star Tommy Gnosis, playing her heart out and sharing the story of her botched sexchange operation. In this live format, the audience will find it hard not to become immersed and truly believe that Gene Dante and his band the Future Starlets are Hedwig and the Angry Inch come to life. Dante, an individual every bit as glamorous as his name, is a veteran performer with credits ranging from a glam-rock album to roles touring with

“The Rocky Horror Show” and “Rent.” In his time with “The Rocky Horror Show,” he met Lisa Van Oosterum, who is producing this run of “Hedwig,” as well as playing Yitzhak. “It was the music that originally drew us to the show,” Van Oosterum explains. “Gene Dante and I were looking for a show to do together that had a rock sensibility yet was also poignant and this show was exactly what we were looking for.” Together, they formed a production group called Zany Hijinks, which they dedicated solely to putting on Hedwig shows. In 2002 and 2003, they had a wildly successful run in the Boston area. Needless to say, more than seven years later, it was high time that Dante don Hedwig’s signature blond wig and glitter once again. “Through the excellent rock ’n’ roll, laughter, cool factor and even the tears this show brings, I hope in some small way it opens eyes to the similarities we all have,” Dante says. “Yes, even Joe Lunchbox has something in common with an East German, transsexual, transplanted-to-a-Midwestern-trailerpark, divorcee rock singer.”
Van Oosterum also sees the show as an opportunity to help the public understand LGBT issues, but it has a personal significance as well: it was the last show she performed seven years ago before having children, and it will be her first after that hiatus from the stage. “Getting to do this show again has been such a gift,” Van Oosterum says. This year’s run is four-city tour, and Dante and Van Oosterum will be hitting Provincetown, R.I., and Hartford, Conn., after Worcester. “Ralph’s in particular is exactly the place Hedwig would play on her tour: this wonderful, smoldering, neon beacon from a David Lynch film, while of course Tommy Gnosis is playing a sold-out show the DCU Center,” Dante says. Ralph’s just has a certain flair to it, equal parts delightfully gaudy and endearingly authentic: a whole lot like Worcester, a whole lot like Hedwig. “Hedwig and the Angry Inch,” July 10 at 8 p.m. at Ralph’s Diner, 95 Prescott St., Worcester. angryinch.com

Robert J. Lewis
STEVEN KING
Two minutes with...
After 43 years in the banking business, Robert J. Lewis, president and CEO of Bay State Savings Bank, is ready to retire and start traveling. Throughout his established career, he has seen the highs and lows of the industry. We recently stepped up to his teller window to ask him a few questions about his career. Tell us a bit about yourself? Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been a banker for virtually all of my working career, starting as a bank examiner at age 21. I honestly canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe that Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been in the banking business for 43 years. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a very challenging but rewarding career ... My major at both the undergraduate and graduate level was economics, which has served me well. My wife and I celebrated our 40th anniversary in January, and we have two grown sons, with our ďŹ rst grandchild due at the end of this month (weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re very excited about this). What are you looking forward to most when you retire? The ďŹ&#x201A;exibility to be able to spend more time at our vacation home on Lake Winnipesauke and to travel/visit out-of-town friends frequently.
Tell us about the Bay State Savings Charitable Foundation? As a community
strived to respond to community needs and our employees are probably one of the most volunteer-focused group of individuals Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ever seen. In 2001, we established the Bay State Saving Charitable Foundation to work for the betterment of our community by responding to the communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basic needs.
How has the community impacted your professional career? When I came to Worcester in 1999, I was immediately welcomed here and that feeling of welcome has never gone away. Through my involvement in many different community activities such as the Chamber, Mechanics Hall, Worcester Club, Economic Club, Rotary Club, etc., Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had the opportunity to interact with some incredibly interesting people (and their businesses). To me, Worcester is the ultimate location for a community banker.

Community banks were never the cause of the banking crisis and frankly it will be the community banks that will help to lead us out of the current recession. Unfortunately all different types of lenders were lumped together as banks, which tarred the community banks. However, community banks have continued to lend and to help their customers through these tough times and that message is being heard.
Worcester (i.e., resident and commercial at widely different rates) needs to be examined closely as it is not businessfriendly especially when compared with other towns/cities.
Is Worcester well-positioned for the economic future in your opinion, or is the state of our local economy still very fragile? Given the concentration of colleges and universities, a major health-care presence, the proliferation of high tech/biotech, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re deďŹ nitely very well positioned. And, we offer a high quality of life without the Boston price tag.
Tell us about an unsung hero in Worcester. Who should get more credit than they do? My hero is Mike Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien, our city manager. Mike has had to tackle some of the most difďŹ cult issues to ever face a city manager and he has consistently approached them in a most professional, common sense, and nonpolitical manner. He is always looking to do what is right for the city and its citizens on both a short- and long-term basis.
