Keep it Clean To the thick-accented manager at [address redacted] McDonald’s. Months ago, I saw you relentlessly berating an employee for not washing his hands. You made everyone in the room so uncomfortable they wish they were never born. But call the coffee tea kettle black, I also saw you not washing your hands on 3-6-15 @ 11:30am, [then] I saw one of your employees commit the same infraction. She wiped her dirty hands on her apron. I would have been more satisfied if you took your employee to the sink, washed his hands in front of you, and went back to work. It would have been also nice if you practiced what you preached, and stopped being a hypocrite. Glad I do not eat there!

FAR OUT Diana Thater’s new exhibit ponders the connections between dung beetles and the luminous arm of our galaxy.
Following The Stars THE LOWLY SCARABAEUS viettei—better known as the dung beetle—doesn't exactly scream high art. It spends its days bumbling about clumsily, pushing around balls of excrement (its food of choice). And while it is capable of flying, and certainly looks like some kind of alien life form, what could it possibly have to do with the outer reaches of our galaxy? Well... more than you might expect, actually. As Los Angeles-based artist Diana Thater learned while researching the insect, dung beetles use the white stripe of the Milky Way to navigate and orient themselves at night. And so, when the San Jose Museum of Art commissioned the internationally known video and installation artist to create an exhibition for its ongoing Beta Space series, she chose the dung beetle as her muse.
Beta Space: Diana Thater Mar 13-Sep 13, Tue-Sun: 11am-5pm, $5-$8 San Jose Museum of Art sjmusart.org
“Beta Space: Diana Thater” will be on view in the museum’s skylight gallery from March 13 until Sept. 13. The exhibition is part video, part installation and will feature images of the dung beetle hard at work, projected overhead. Thater will participate in a discussion about her art on April 23 at 7pm at the museum. The austere, white gallery will be lit a blue/green hue, and a large white box in the center of the gallery will emit a soft yellow light. The idea, Thater says, is to replicate the nocturnal environment of the dung beetle. An adjacent gallery will display animated footage of the Milky Way. “The intention is to link the museum to NASA and other science and high-tech corporations in the area,” Thater says. The piece also gives her the opportunity to explore “the micro and the macro”—as seen in the juxtaposition of the beetle’s tiny world against the expansiveness of outer space. Thater holds degrees in art from New York University and the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena—where she currently serves as chair of the art department—and says she was “always interested in moving images and art history.” She admits to being strongly influenced by the Light and Space artists who worked out of Los Angeles in the 1960s and especially the work of Robert Irwin. “We all have similar concerns with phenomena (natural environment, color and light) but my work uses imagery.”
A fan of nature documentaries, Thater has created previous installations about dolphins, gorillas and wolves. She is not, however, interested in telling a narrative story, because “animals and nature don’t tell a story from beginning to end.” By using nonlinear time, the artist feels that her work is a kind of abstraction and redefines what installation art can be.— Sheryl Nonnenberg

BELLE OF THE BALL Disney’s live-action Cinderella
KENNETH BRANAGH’S VERSION of Cinderella has a magnificent palace in it, like a Beaux Arts Monte Carlo casino on the edge of an Alaskan fjord. Production designer Dante Ferretti and costumer Sandy Powell fill it up at great expense. This fantasyland is of the late 1800s, after the invention of aniline dyes; garish as they are cruel, the stepsisters wear all the newly created hues at once. The prince, who is known to his intimates as “Kit” (Richard Madden) holds court in a series of gorgeous Hussar uniforms with skintight riding trousers. As James Brown put it, what you see is what you get.
Cate Blanchett, wrapped in poison green gowns, has the job of putting this poor orphan in her place, making Ella sleep in a rickety attic as tall as the library in The Name of the Rose. Scripter Chris Weisz Cinderella devises an intelligent patriotic reason why Ella PG, 112 min. would hide from her prince. Opens Friday But the sturdiness of the writing goes too far and over-explains—Blanchett doesn’t need lines to explain why she’s bad. She‘s Cate Blanchett. She can show us the hurt on the far side of her wrath, without any words.
Lily James was cast not because she’s the most beautiful girl in the world this week, but because she’s an actress able to convey an honest heart. Ella’s endurance changes the story, if a spot of magic helps—the temporary enchantment melts delightfully during a chase, with the horses growing vast mouse ears and the lizard footmen and the goose coachman metamorphizing in front of us.
Branagh makes the fantasy as effortlessly multi-culti as it is smart, though there’s not much Shakespeare to it—if you don’t count one of the awful sisters mangling a song from As You Like It. However, Derek Jacobi, as the dying king, stirs one’s emotions. He seems to bring everything he learned as a Shakespearean about the weight of royalty to this role. —Richard von Busack

THE STRAIGHT DOPE
By CECIL ADAMS
CECIL@METRONEWS.COM
HERB’S
A LLT TERNA AT TIVE MEDICINE
On the other hand, he killed as many as 90 people to do it. The Dachau data were published in a 1946 report by a U.S. medical advisor at the Nuremberg trials and quietly used by various researchers over the years until in 1988 Dr. Robert Pozos of the University of Minnesota’s Hypothermia Laboratory brought Rascher’s work to wider attention in hopes of starting a discussion about bioethics. He got one: impassioned doctors, ethicists, and Holocaust survivors weighed in; conferences were organized. The editor of the New England Journal of Medicine flatly declared the data unusable. At around the same time, authors of a draft report for the Environmental Protection Agency cited Nazi data on phosgene from 1943, when doctors exposed 52 prisoners to the gas and timed how long it took them to die. This information was relevant to regulating phosgene use at U.S. plastics and pesticide plants, but 22 EPA scientists wrote a letter objecting, and the cite was deleted. Josef Mengele’s work didn’t pose such ethical quandaries. His notorious experiments at Auschwitz on hundreds of pairs of twins produced no notable conclusions. He did, however, contribute significantly to a subtler Nazi plot: the channeling of thousands of victims’ brains and other organs, cadavers, and blood and tissue samples to major research institutions. Many prominent German neuroscientists worked with the brains: Julius Hallervorden, for example, went on to discover a rare neurodegenerative disorder that until recently bore his name (now it’s called NBIA). Most of these doctors died with their reputations intact. The camp experiments were never likely to be good science: besides being overly concerned with efficient methods of killing people, they were tainted by racial bias and the use of atypically unhealthy subject groups. Their only really useful outcome was the Nuremberg Code—the first major enumeration of international research ethics, written into the verdict of the Nazi doctors’ trial in 1947. It took humanity 200,000 years, but we finally developed the moral maturity to realize you shouldn’t feed unwitting schoolchildren radioactive breakfast cereal just to see what happens.

I once heard that Dr. Mengele's experiments were medicine's “dirty little secret”: modern medical science had gained from his atrocities, but such a fact couldn’t be made public. Later, though, a friend in the biomedical tech industry told me he had never found any reference to Mengele's work in the literature and that his experiments had no medical value. Can you shed some light on this? —Gilad, UK You’re actually both right—but then again, pretty much all medical research back then was a dirty little secret. These days studies consist of college kids getting paid 40 bucks to smoke weed and sit in an MRI scanner for an hour, but things were different back in the day: The Tuskegee syphilis experiment, where rural men with the disease were kept ignorant of their condition and prevented from getting treatment, is justly infamous, but there’s also the ’40s case where inmates at a New York correctional facility were directed to swallow suspended fecal matter so researchers could study a stomach bug. Of course, if we’re talking circles of hell, none of these would place you as deep in the inferno as the experiments conducted in Nazi concentration camps, which regularly crossed the line into pure sadism and horror. But most Nazi medical research was intensely professional; proportionately, more German physicians (48 percent) joined the Nazi party than any other occupation. And Germany was a science powerhouse; through 1939, Germans accounted for more than a third of all Nobel prizes in medicine, chemistry, and physics. So yes, there’s plenty of Nazi-era research that doctors have used and built on ever since: Nazi scientists were pioneers in the study of hormones and vitamins, they were the first to discover the link between smoking and lung cancer, and they had the most aggressive and successful cancer-prevention program of the time. But the data gathered in the concentration camps tended towards the gruesome, unscientific, and fairly useless. Two cases where these experiments did have some clear public-health application, though, involved phosgene gas and hypothermia. Working at Dachau, SS doctor Sigmund Rascher had prisoners strapped down naked in freezing weather or submerged in ice water for hours at a time; blood, urine, and mucus samples were taken regularly while their body temperature dropped. On one hand, Rascher obtained data that no responsible researcher ever could, and he developed the life-saving hypothermia treatment technique called rapid active rewarming.
