In addition to extending the project reach upstream to Tully Road, the proposed modification to the project will change the target protection from 1%, or 100-year, level flood event, to protection from a flood event equivalent to the February 21, 2017 flood (approximately a 20 to 25 year event). The proposed modification also includes identifying short-term flood relief solutions, that are permittable and do not exacerbate flooding elsewhere.

You had a cute little dog in your arms and I had a feeling it wasn’t going to end well.

The hateful preacher with the microphone was doing what he does best (hate) and you decided to stand directly in front of him and try to shout over the speakers. I turned my head a second and by the time I looked back the preacher’s assistants—one was wearing camouflage, perhaps so the good lord can’t see his complicity— had grabbed hold of you for supposedly assaulting the hater. They wrestled you to the ground and your little dog, terrified, went running across the light rail tracks and one-way traffic.

A collection of superheroes tried to break up the melee— it was FanimeCon weekend— and blows were thrown. The bellowing blowhard emerged with a cut on his cheek and you ran off. I heard later on they found your dog, but here’s some free advice: don’t stoop to the level of a gutter preacher, especially with a little pup in your arms.

SVNEWS

Sheriff-Off Santa Clara County Sheriff LAURIE SMITH is will running for a sixth term in 2018, and she’ll be facing her former second-in-command, JOHN HIROKAWA. After They Did retiring last summer as What? undersheriff, Hirokawa filed for candidacy earlier SEND TIPS TO this month and put up a FLY@ campaign website and METRONEWS. COM Facebook page to gear up for a run against his ex-boss. “I believe we need to see some change,” says the 60-year-old, who has nearly four decades of experience in both custody and enforcement. “She’s been sheriff for a while, but I think it’s my time to bring forth an agenda that’s focused on moving the agency forward.”

Both candidates tell Fly that they want to prioritize jail reforms, most of which were proposed after three jail deputies were charged with murdering mentally ill inmate MICHAEL TYREE in 2015. “We’re so focused on the jail transformation right now, so I’m not running a campaign at this moment,” says Smith, who would become the county’s longest-serving sheriff if she wins another four years in office. “But you know, everything we’re doing at the jail is going to take more than a year. I’m committed to seeing this through.” That both candidates oversaw the county’s troubled jails could make them a tough sell to voters.

Technically, the fatal beating of Tyree and other incidents happened on both of their watch. Hirokawa says he began pushing for sweeping changes before Tyree’s death, however. “I was already examining things,” he says. “I was already listening to people.”

Former subordinates have tried to unseat Smith before—retired Capt. KEVIN JENSEN lost to her in 2014, despite endorsements from unions that represent correctional and enforcement deputies. Hirokawa gave Smith a courtesy call before publicly announcing his intent to run, which the sheriff hopes will bode well for the tone of the race. “We’ve known each other forever,” Smith says, “and I can say that he’s a very nice person.”

Marching Orders ARMS WIDE OPEN San Jose’s LGBTQ march intends to be inclusive and apolitical—how’s that work?

Organizers for San Jose’s upcoming LGBT march send mixed messages

BY TORI TRUSCHEIT

N

EARLY A YEAR to the day since 49 people were killed and 53 more were injured in the Pulse nightclub massacre in Orlando, San Jose will join cities across the country on June 11 to host an Equality March for the LGBT community. The event is being modeled after January’s massive Women’s March.

But in contrast to the worldwide day of protest, which in many ways retained a grass-roots identity despite millions coming together to send a message to President Donald Trump’s administration that “women’s rights are human rights,” it’s unclear if the origins of San Jose’s upcoming LGBT march comes from activists and community

organizers or Santa Clara County’s headquarters in San Jose.

San Jose’s Project MORE Foundation throws a pay-to-participate Pride party each August, but the annual festival is designed as an apolitical celebration, unlike events such as the Dyke March and Trans March in San Francisco.

Despite a lack of experience or interest in organizing political rallies in the past, Project MORE announced that San Jose would host the LGBT march on the same day San Francisco holds its sister event to the national equality march.

The event is being championed through the Santa Clara County Office of LGBTQ Affairs, which raises the question of who really proposed the event and whether it is a governmentsanctioned protest. Maribel Martinez, director of the LGBTQ Affairs office, cites “local leaders” as the source of the idea. “We wanted to be connected with the national movement as well.”

But according to Nathan Svoboda, president of Project MORE, “a few

people” on the organization’s board came up with the idea well before the national march was announced. “There’s never been a march” in San Jose, he says.

“Why can’t we have our own?”

Ken Yeager, Santa Clara County’s first and only “out” member of the Board of Supervisors, expressed surprise at Svoboda’s claim that San Jose has never had an LGBT march. “Of course we have,” Yeager says. “Wow.” Yeager reminisces about three-to-four block parades down Stockton Street in downtown San Jose, which used to be home to multiple gay bars. Yeager has been involved in local gay politics since 1984 and remembers marching when he first ran for office in 1992. He says he first heard rumblings of a national LGBT march when he visited Washington, D.C., in December, but denied that the San Jose event was his idea.

“I was not involved in any of those discussions. Zero,” Yeager says.

Regardless of who came up with the idea, the goal is inclusivity, not policy changes. Initially, the march’s website explained that the event was not a protest. Language has since been changed to say that it is not a “partisan” protest: “This human rights march is not a Red event. It’s not a Blue event, either.”

California provides much stronger protections for LGBT people than federal laws. Discrimination against gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and gender-nonconforming people in employment, housing, or public accommodations has been illegal for more than a decade. But in the current political climate, that does little to assuage the concerns of the LGBTQ community, in particular trans and gender-nonconforming people, immigrants, and LGBT people of color.

“We’ve got other things to worry about than just the rainbow,” says Candelario Franco, who is on the march’s Steering Committee. “Although we love gay marriage, we have other things to contend with, because we’re getting it from all these other fronts as well.”

Trans people in the nation’s 10thlargest city still have to go to Fremont, Santa Cruz or San Francisco to get trans-friendly health care.

“If somebody was looking for medically necessary services for transition, they couldn’t find any locally,” Martinez says. “For a community and county as big as Santa Clara County, that’s not acceptable.”

Her office has begun the search for a medical director for a new “trans and gender specialty clinic” to remedy the problem.

Yeager, who terms out at the end of next year, is seeking $1 million in funding for the Office of LGBTQ Affairs in 2018, including six new positions that would include a transgender program and community manager at a cost of $151,600, according to the Bay Area Reporter.

Franco and the march Steering Committee are working to ensure the event emphasizes the voices of those who are directly affected by the Trump administration. “We are looking in the right places and asking the right people, from drag queens to trans folks to young trans folks to Latinos to undocuqueers,” he says, referencing the movement for undocumented queer immigrants. “We’re seeing folks who live here and who grew up here making themselves visible because now we have this platform.” Franco, who is the program manager for Getting to Zero, the county’s new HIV prevention initiative, sees the march as an opportunity for new LGBT activists to step up in San Jose. “This march needs to be for us, about us, and for those that are ready to defend us, and in every possible way.”

9 MAY 31-JUNE 6, 2017 | metrosiliconvalley.com | sanjose.com | metroactive.com

The march’s FAQs do not mention the Trump administration, which since Jan. 21 has removed any mention of LGBT rights from its website, dropped legal protections for trans students, stopped the Obama administration’s efforts to count LGBT people in the census, and proposed funding cuts for HIV research, among other things. Trump’s health care bill, which narrowly passed in the House, removes protections for trans people.

Trump has appointed virulently anti-gay politicians to lead various departments.

U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions used now-unconstitutional anti-sodomy laws to harass LGBT Alabamians in the 1990s and tried to ban same-sex marriage in 2004. Neil Gorsuch, Trump’s new Supreme Court justice, has voted against trans people in cases of discrimination and could support antigay marriage laws. Vice President Mike Pence used HIV prevention money for gay conversion “therapy” as governor of Indiana, and he unsuccessfully tried to not only amend the state constitution to ban same-sex marriages but also civil unions. All are Republicans, as are the sponsors of an onslaught of postelection anti-trans legislation in Texas and North Carolina.

Beyond specifically anti-LGBT policy, the Trump administration has increased arrests of undocumented immigrants by 40 percent, tried to enforce a ban on travelers from Muslim countries, and proposed massive cuts to food stamps—all changes that would make life far more difficult for low-income and immigrant LGBT people and LGBT people of color. “The current political climate that we’re in on a national level is very concerning to us,” Svoboda says. “So we are rallying together and marching to express our dislike and dissatisfaction with many of the actions that have been done.”

And yet, the march’s official language is far more explicit about which hotels to stay at for the event than how the Trump administration is endangering LGBT people. “Our organization has always been very careful to be neutral on any political issues,” Svoboda says.

Given that 77 percent of LGBT people—and 73 percent of Santa Clara County—voted for Hillary Clinton, the supportive language for “red” voters seems disingenuous. But the goal is to build support among as many people as possible, according to organizers.

Martinez hopes to “see just a huge crowd” that includes “folks who are LGBT-identified and those who aren’t.”

10 BEACH PARTY This rare image of surfing in Lahaina, Maui, 1855, shows that surfing was a communal activity during the era of Kamehameha IV.

B

Y ALL ACCOUNTS, the middle week of July in 1885 was a glorious one in the seaside community of Santa Cruz. Tourists from throughout the Santa Clara, Sacramento and San Joaquin valleys flocked to the beach via the narrow-gauge South Pacific Coast Railroad, with stops in San Jose and Los Gatos, to escape the interior’s sweltering summer heat.

The weather had been absolutely splendid during the week. The delightfully named Santa Cruz Daily Surf, edited by the talented A.A. Taylor, noted that the blanket of fog that traditionally cooled the Monterey Bay region had

lifted well before noontime each day— leaving temperatures in the high 70s to mid-80s. It was a golden summer.

In the early edition of the Surf on Monday, July 20, the newspaper carried lengthy accounts of all the previous

weekend’s festivities on the Santa Cruz waterfront under a detailed, Page 2 column titled “Beach Breezes.”

The Surf reported that “Sunday afternoon at the beach was one of the liveliest of the season. It was warm, very warm, but tempered by a breeze, which made the heat endurable and kept people good-natured.” On no other Sunday of the season, the Surf assessed, “have so many bathers, both ladies and gentlemen, been in the water, and all pronounced it delightful.”

At the mouth of the San Lorenzo River, beyond the eastern swath of the beach, history was about to be made. Three Hawaiian princes—David

Their uncle, King David Kalakaua, a renowned surfer at the long break along Waikiki Beach on the island of Oahu, had taught them to surf there as well.

According to the Surf, “The breakers at the mouth of the river were very fine and here occurred the very primest of fun, at least, so said those who were ‘in the swim.’” As many as 30 or 40 oceangoers were out in the water with them,

legends of Surf

BY GEOFFREY DUNN & KIM STONER

The remarkable story of how three hawaiian princes introduced surfing to the mainland

James Gay Sawkins

“dashing and tossing, and plunging through the breakers.”

And then came the first account of surfing anywhere in the Americas: The young Hawaiian princes were in the water, enjoying it hugely and giving interesting exhibitions of surfboard swimming as practiced in their native islands.

What is interesting about the description is that the writer was not only familiar with the princes—and assumed his readership to be as well— but he or she was also aware of the term “surf-board” and that their ocean

escapade was a cultural activity they had brought with them from Hawaii.

T

HE HISTORY OF the three princes surfing in Santa Cruz is an extraordinary Pacific Rim tale that spans generations and involves a complex and complicated network of familial relationships and friendships—including many links to the Santa Clara Valley and the San Francisco Peninsula. It is equally delightful in its nuances, which involve desertion and larceny, forgery and fraud, imperial power and political overthrow and, perhaps most important, the spirit of mana, the

divine power with which the ali’i, or Hawaiian royalty, governed the islands.

The three princes were not some casual day-trip visitors to Santa Cruz. The family they stayed with over a period of three years—Lyman and Antoinette Swan—also had complex links to Hawaiian history and, in the case of Antoinette Swan, direct lineage to royal Hawaiian bloodlines. The Swans also lived for a number of years in San Jose.

Perhaps most important, the experiences of the three princes surfing in Santa Cruz played a significant role in the history of surfing. A decade after their departure, there are verified

accounts that their surfing exhibition “stuck” in Santa Cruz long after they were gone. And the redwood olo boards that they rode in Santa Cruz—milled from first-growth redwood trees from the Santa Cruz Mountains—went back with them to Honolulu—where, for the next 40 years or more, redwood shipped from Northern California across the Pacific became the primary material for the construction of Hawaiian surfboards.

Even today, an entrepreneur of Hawaiian descent with roots in San Jose’s music scene, Kyle Gilmore, is trying to make sure that the

BEFORE THE BOARD The Santa Cruz waterfront, circa 1885, was lined with salt-water bathhouses where the Santa Cruz Boardwalk stands today. significance of this history—and those who made it—is properly honored and respected.

T

WENTY YEARS AFTER the princes first arrived in Santa Cruz, an obituary appeared in the Santa Cruz Surf on Oct. 2, 1905, for “Mrs. Antoinette Don Paul Marie Swan,” who had died the day before at her family home on Cathcart Street.

The obituary noted that Swan “was courtly in manner, and had a charm in her dealing with people that won many friends. She was a kind neighbor and a devoted mother, loved by her children.”

She was clearly a well-liked and widely respected member of the community.

The obituary also included some detailed information about Antoinette’s lineage, rather unique to Santa Cruz at this time: She was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, of Spanish parentage on her father’s side, he being for many years consul from Spain at Honolulu, and owner of the island at the mouth of the Pearl River, and was very prominent in the islands.

He was the first to introduce many of the flowers in that land.

Not all of the information in the Surf obituary is accurate, but it is close enough to provide both an open window into her life story and enough clues to put the various pieces of this intricate historic puzzle back together. In many respects, Antoinette Swan serves as the social and cultural linchpin to the story of the three-princes and to the origins of surfing in the Americas.

According to baptismal records in Hawaii and her death certificate in Santa Cruz, Antoinette “Akoni” Marin was born on the island of Oahu on Oct. 6, 1832. Contrary to the reference in the obituary, her mother, Kaikuloa, was a “chiefess,” which made Antoinette, by birth, of “ali’i” or noble Hawaiian lineage. Her father, Don Francisco de Paula Marin, was a legendary figure in Hawaiian history, from his first arrival in the islands in the early 1790s until his death in Honolulu in 1837. While he was never “consul from Spain,” as would later be claimed (indeed he deserted the Spanish army), he served in the role of unofficial consigliore to Kings Kamehameha III & IV and played a major role as liaison between European and American vessels and native Hawaiian authorities.

By the time Marin had died in 1837, he had fatWd, according to some accounts, as many as 27 children. His last daughter, Antoinette, has just reached her fifth birthday.

Following Marin’s death, Antoinette was adopted by Dr. Thomas Charles Byde Rooke, a prominent British physician who had also married into an ali’i family.

Antoinette was thus raised in comfort and privilege. She received the best private education (including the Royal School, which had been founded by American missionaries), and her younger hanai sister, Emma Rooke, would later become Queen Consort of Hawaii as the wife of King Kamehameha IV.

I

N NOVEMBER OF 1851, an item in the Honolulu Polynesian newspaper noted that Antoinette had married Lyman Swan, then a young businessman on the Honolulu waterfront. He was a partner in Swan & Clifford, a seemingly successful nautical supply business that fitted out whaling ships during the heyday of the Pacific whaling industry and the era of Moby-Dick. (Indeed, a young

Herman Melville had worked for Antoinette’s hanai brother-in-law, Isaac Montgomery, during his four-month sojourn in Honolulu.)

In April of 1853, Antoinette gave birth to the couple’s first child, Olivia (“Lily”), and the young Swan family appeared to be living a life of prosperity and promise in Honolulu. But as would be the case with Lyman Swan throughout his life, appearances were often deceiving.

Business records for Swan & Clifford in the Hawaiian Archives indicate that while the supply enterprise was doing a booming business, income was not keeping up with expenses.

Apparently, unbeknownst to his partner, Ornan Clifford, Swan began forging “bills of exchange” with several whaling ships. On April 13, 1855, authorities in Hawaii issued a detailed circular (akin to a wanted poster) charging both Swan and Clifford with forging $40,000 in promissory notes and leaving more than $80,000 in unpaid bills just after Swan had sneaked out of Honolulu on the sailing ship George in March of 1854. It was a huge amount of money during that era—the equivalent of millions today—and the case quickly garnered international attention. A $5,000 reward was offered for information about their whereabouts.

Swan was once a member of the firm Eveleth & Co. San Francisco, and for a short time resided in California….[He] is a man of about five feet ten inches, rather spare, stoops considerable.

While Clifford immediately returned to Honolulu and declared his innocence (several supporters in Hawaii signed a letter on his behalf), Swan was apprehended on the island of Alameda in San Francisco Bay. All of the forged bills had been executed in his handwriting. While Hawaiian authorities tried to extradite Swan, he was never to return to the islands.

He endured several years of both civil and criminal cases against him in San Francisco (he was found guilty on several, but not all counts), though it’s uncertain he ever served time in prison.

Somehow, he managed to bring Antoinette and daughter Lily to California during his court cases, where the family first resided in San Jose until the late 1850s, before moving to Santa Cruz. By that time,

NO STONE UNTURNED Kyle Gilmore at the unmarked grave of Antoinette ‘Akoni’ Swan at Santa Cruz Memorial Park.

As for the other two princes, David and Jonah, they would carve out significant niches for themselves in Hawaiian history. The eldest brother, David, would eventually become the immediate first heir to the throne.

The youngest, Jonah, who had been Queen Lili'uokalani’s personal favorite, was second. Neither of them, however, would ever become king.

In January of 1893, a group of American and European businessmen, aided by the U.S. military, overthrew the Hawaiian monarchy. Queen Lili'uokalani was deposed on Jan. 17, 1893, relinquishing her throne to “the superior military forces of the United States.”

Two years later, then 24-year-old Jonah, a fierce advocate for Hawaiian independence, fought in a rebellion against the U.S.-supported republic and was sentenced to a year in prison.

While Kuhio was incarcerated across the Pacific, the weekly edition of the Santa Cruz Surf made the fascinating observation that “the boys who go in swimming at Seabright Beach use surf boards to ride the breakers, like the Hawaiians.”

A decade after their departure from Santa Cruz, the princes’ surfing legacy

had taken hold on the California Coast.

Kuhio left Hawaii immediately upon his release and traveled the world. In 1902, he returned from exile to participate in Hawaiian politics. While his brother David headed up the state’s Democratic Party (and was a delegate to the 1900 Democratic National Convention), Jonah joined the Republican Party and was elected to the U.S. Congress in 1903 as a “delegate” from the Territory of Hawaii, where he served until his death in 1922.

Today, the memory of Jonah Kuhio Kalaniana'ole is woven into the memory of Hawaiian culture. There are streets, beaches, plazas, highways, businesses, resorts, and a federal building named for him, along with a state holiday. A well-known Hawaiian chant, “Hui Hololio,” was written in his honor: This is the name song for Kalaniana`ole Leader of the riders like the sea spray…

We call to thee, o answer To your name song o Kalaniana`ole.

T

HE LINCHPIN OF this story, however, Antoinette Swan, has long been a forgotten figure in

Pacific Rim history. When San Jose music promoter Kyle Gilmore—who believes he may be a relative of Swan’s through her mother’s side—visited a bronze plaque honoring the three princes at Lighthouse Field in Santa Cruz, he decided to locate the gravesite of Antoinette Swan at Santa Cruz Memorial Park, a mile or so up the San Lorenzo River from where the princes made surfing history.

Upon encountering Antoinette Swan’s story, Gilmore—who helped launch The Ritz in San Jose’s downtown SoFA district—felt an immediate kinship to her. According to his own family lore, he is a descendant of Hawaiian royalty, of a line similar to that of Antoinette’s.

Recent DNA tests provide possible links not only to Antoinette, but also to the three princes as well, along with at least two other ali’i bloodlines. All of them were distant cousins—the same way that Antoinette and the princes were believed to be related.

Gilmore met with officials at the Memorial Park cemetery, and has subsequently set up a GoFundMe account to help fund the creation of a marker to honor Antoinette and

members of the Swan family who are also buried there in unmarked graves.

“When I went to the cemetery and saw no marker there,” Gilmore says, “I felt compelled to act, to do something about it. My mother had directed me to always protect the bones of those with superior mana, or spirit. I felt as though it was my calling to honor ‘Akoni.’

“Whatever is revealed through all of this,” he continues, “I will accept the responsibility—to deal with all that presents itself in a righteous manner. This is a central part of my Hawaiian heritage—to be accountable to all that is sacred and forgotten. She is here. I can feel her.”

For Gilmore, this is more than an academic or symbolic enterprise.

“I know there was something I had to do here in Santa Cruz,” he says. “I look around and see the anxiety and pain we all live in as part of the modern world—the drug and alcohol abuse, the general depression and broken families, the homelessness of traditional native peoples, their economic and political subordination. Broken spirits. The insanity. We need to honor our mana and to remember the past. That is how we are going to heal our people.”

ever since. From the frame to the running gear to the floor, he’s dismantled a car that was designed to function one way and then reassembled it as a mobile, interactive sculpture.

Admittedly not a car aficionado, that didn’t stop him from investigating and learning how to install a new suspension system and an interior tubular frame (sealed in place for structural rigidity). Like Frankenstein’s monster, his singular vehicle is composed of disparate elements—a Toyota transmission, a VW engine and a Lexus rear end suspension and differential. He’s sculpted cowling shaped into multi-planed helmets that cover the wheel wells and engine. The overall aesthetic impression references the machine age.

CAN CREATE.” That's my gift. I can make anything I can imagine. Out of metal.

Glass. You name it.”

That’s not a statement made by the artist Shawn HibmaCronan. That’s Madison Jeffries speaking, a Marvel Comics mutant whose superpower is the ability to manipulate plastic, metal and glass with his mind.

HibmaCronan has the assistance of a welder, lifts, a crane and a forklift, but the end results are the same. His Alameda studio is filled with the

building materials and detritus of an artisan’s unfettered imagination.

Hovering on the remotest edge of the now defunct Alameda Naval Air Station, HibmaCronan’s shared warehouse space faces out to ships docked in the bay. This part of the island looks lifeless and abandoned until you park at the artist’s open front door. A digital playlist shuffles music along in the background while he offers a tour featuring current and past projects. Hundreds of random parts are stacked up, overlapping each other on workbenches and shelves. If Victor Frankenstein had worked with metal and wood instead of sinew

and bone, this could have doubled as his laboratory.

HibmaCronan graduated from the California College of the Arts in 2009 with a double major in sculpture and furniture. Or, as he breaks it down: “metal and woodworking.”

He’s seamlessly combined the two materials in many of his earlier pieces, such as Escape Vehicle, 2007.

Simply put, it’s a school desk on four wheels. For him, it represented the “daydreaming I was doing while in art school.” For the audience, it inspires a tactile interaction. You want to sit down and go for a drive.

With his latest sculpture, that’s exactly what you can do. Love, Inertia, and the Pursuit of the Perfect Stance is HibmaCronan’s restored and completely customized 1963 Ford Falcon Deluxe Club Wagon.

He bought the vehicle 10 years ago on Craigslist and has kept it in a state of perpetual evolution

‘Like Frankenstein’s monster, his singular vehicle is composed of disparate elements’ In the studio, he showed off a rear left fender polished to a high silver.

By the time he mounts it on a trailer to drive it south for June’s SoFA’s First Friday ICA Live! performance, he says the entire outside shell will be that smooth and shiny. It’s not freeway ready yet but he has put the suspension air tanks and bags in place. At his command, they’re primed to lift and lower the body. He’s created a concept car, a prototype with its own set of rules.

This Club Wagon turns locomotion into art, and it’s very much alive.

TAKE A SILENT hallway veiled in yards of draping fabric—psychedelic swirls of stars and flowers dance beside metallic silver sheets; the warm, mystical ambiance of some illustrated lamps hang overhead. Mixedmedia artist Laurie Shapiro’s “walk-in womb” at the San Jose Museum of Quilts and Textiles tackles the mysteries of our collective origin story.

The installation—titled “Before You Were Born”—forces us to ponder where we came from before stumbling into this physical realm. “Where did your essence—your spirit—come from?” Shapiro urges in her artist’s statement. It’s an enticing question, one that can end with the simple answer of “a womb” or stretch on indefinitely into the mystical grounds of metaphysical contemplation.

Reviewing Shapiro’s preliminary conceptual sketches of the 30-foot installation, the words “warm, full of love” and “all that we come from” are scribbled next to drawings of sperm-shaped “balls of energy,” which would eventually become the glowing sperm lights in the piece. Birth and creation are principal themes, duly manifested in the way each light drops through a “vaginal-shaped hole” in the cloth ceiling.

Before You Were Born Thru Jun 2 7pm, Free San Jose Museum of Quilts and Textiles

“I want people to feel connection, and I want that in all of my work,” says Shapiro, the current artist in residence at SJMQT. Inspired by her current read, Seth Speaks, a “super strange, New Age book from the ’70s about a personality from another dimension” who speaks truths about human life and consciousness, Shapiro set out to create an installation encompassing themes of interconnectedness and human spirituality.

Every component is painted, printed, and stitched together in this cavelike environment whose form seamlessly recalls the notion of connectedness. “I let my mind go with the shapes that I was making.”

The ethereal, otherworldly sensation of the space is meant to nurture feelings of comfort, security and unity—a safe house in these dark and uncertain times. It’s a practical intent, a necessary intent, with the appearance of dreamlike transcendence.

“Before You Were Born” went up on April 7 and is on display until June 2. During First Friday, the piece will be accompanied by a dance performance by Shapiro’s close friend Courtney Hartman from 7pm9pm. All of Shapiro’s original artwork and prints are available for purchase at the SJMQT. —Camille Miller

BROKEN SOCIAL SCENE An elderly carpenter and a single mother comfort each other as they navigate a broken social welfare system in ‘I, Daniel Blake.’

Cannes hit ‘I, Daniel Blake’ looks at Britain’s frayed safety net

BY RICHARD VON BUSACK

K

EN LOACH’S BRUISING neo-realist I, Daniel Blake ponders the way poor-shaming is built into the system. Fiftynine-year-old widower Daniel (Dave Johns, who looks like an older, sadder Bill Burr) was a carpenter before he had a heart attack that knocked him right off his scaffold. Over the titles, he’s interrogated by phone by the British equivalent of workers’ comp, being asked personal questions about his health, his continence and his ability to type.

Ultimately, he only has 12 out of the 15 points necessary to get disability.

On to Job Seeker’s Allowance— unemployment insurance. The money is contingent on his seeking a desk job in one of England’s worst job markets, the former shipbuilding town of Newcastle upon Tyne. Daniel is digitally useless: “With computers, I’m dyslexic.” While entering his information the only way it can be accepted, as an online form, Daniel swears at the keyboard: “Cursor!

Fucking apt name for it.”

He goes through a risible yet mandatory job resume workshop, led by a suit-clad salesperson—John Sumner, comic as one of those Dwight Schrute types who like to precede every statement with a shouted out “FACT!” Daniel befriends a new neighbor in the same boat, Katie (Hayley Squires).

She was kicked out of her soon-to-beprivatized public housing in London, 250 miles away. London councils have been shipping public housing denizens north to cities where the real estate market is less hot.

Katie is a believable kind of single mom, wary of being indebted to anyone, even someone as harmless as Daniel. He eases her mind, watching her children. He shows her a few poor-person tricks: a flower pot and candle turned into a room heater, taped up bubble-wrap insulation for when the heat’s turned off because of an unpayable £391 bill.

This neo-documentary film is at its keenest depicting Katie’s shame when she goes to a food bank. A helper’s “Anything else you want?” is pronounced in a way that means, “You’ve taken your share already.”

Katie helplessly rips into a can of food—she’s starving from having skipped meals so her kids could eat.

Daniel tries to calm her when she breaks down in tears, reminding her that it’s not her fault that she’s poor.

I, DANIEL BLAKE

Welfare Check

In America, we feel it is indeed your fault. And in this valley, there’s little patience with people who can’t seem to become computer literate: tough for them. Even a movie this lucid might not convince conservatives, and some scenes simplify Daniel and Katie’s plight into melodrama. Circumstances propel Katie into some very unpleasant work, and she’s caught at it by her new friend. I didn’t believe this development for a second. In a funeral scene we’re reminded of the nature of the tragedy, as if we hadn’t just seen it played out before us.

Blake’s north British gentleness makes this rough to watch—it’s like seeing Wallace from the Aardman cartoons being put through the wringer by cold bureaucrats. But the meekness and kindness and details of conversational British language give you hope. Keenest of all is a moment of triumph, a great laugh when Blake finally rebels against his austerity-minded torturers. He gets some public revenge for all the hours he spent on hold on a pay-as-you-go mobilel phone, listening to stupid fiddling Vivaldi. (Hold music will teach you to loathe “The Four Seasons.”)

Revelers and passersby cheer Daniel on as, perhaps for the first time in his life, the old man breaks the law.

George Orwell once commented “to see what is in front of your nose requires constant struggle”.

That struggle is easier, these days.

Governmental attacks on the poor are so obvious that even the slickest Ayn Rand bamboozlers in Congress fail to blind their victims.

Seeing what’s in front of your nose is one problem. Loach’s problem is slightly different: how do you dramatize something that happens every day, so that it’ll look, believably, like something that happens every day? Loach’s half-century long efforts in his many films about the working class haven’t always succeeded, but he’s always tried. For the most part, this time he’s succeeded beautifully.

Sonido Clash Jun 2, 6pm Parque De Los Pobladores

Sonido Clash is a collective of creators and curators based in San Jose. The music they make together often smashes together a variety of divergent sounds—including cumbia, EDM and hip-hop. It’s unclear how this group of DJs, producers and rappers will choose to entertain the crowd for the duration of their set. Whatever they do, it’s sure to keep the crowd moving.

Dogcatcher Jun 3, 9:45pm S First St between San Carlos & San Salvador

Andrew Heine—lead singer of Dogcatcher—isn’t worried about genre. “Thanksgiving Leftovers,” from the band's eponymous third album, is propped up by a jazzy keyboard melody that Heine lets bloom into a rich wave of bass and trumpet, which ultimately crashes and makes way for the rest of the album. Heine’s uses his breathy vocal delivery to muse about relationships and life. Whether you can relate to his point of view or not, it’s hard not to get swept up in his infectious melodies.

SUPER CHILL The SubZERO Festival celebrates 10 years of keeping SoFA weird.

A quintet of promising local acts play the SubZERO Festival

BY YOUSIF KASSAB

T

IME FLIES WHEN you’re having fun.

SubZERO is back for its 10th year with two days of art, music and culture in San Jose’s SoFA District. Popping off in tandem with the monthly South First Fridays art walk, the festival will feature wild street performances, food, drink and plenty of local creatives showcasing their work and wares.

The event will also feature two

music stages, with local acts playing until midnight both on nights. The musicians on the lineup are an eclectic bunch. Here are four highlights.

Future Twin Jun 2, 9:35pm Parque De Los Pobladores

If there’s one thing Future Twin has down, it’s how to flip between self-serious and whimsical on a dime. The San Francisco-based musical project of Jean Jeanie ranges from forceful pop to dreamy and meandering. Jeanie’s vocal style owes a bit to Elizabeth Fraser of Cocteau Twins and Annie Clark of St. Vincent. That said, none of these songs sound like retreads. “Getting

Theoretical (Instead of Talking About Your Feelings)” begins with urgent percussion and a low-in-themix guitar lead that explodes as Jeanie belts out the chorus.

Human Ottoman Jun 2, 9:45pm S First St between San Carlos & San Salvador

Vibraphones, a cello and a drum set aren’t such an unlikely trio.

You’d never know that, listening to Human Ottoman for the first time though. The group blends the three instruments into songs that range from melodic to jarring. On “Mulatu (The Frizz)” the group toggles between a haunting cello lead and a feather-light vibe solo— then back again. The percussion serves as the musical glue, allowing these contradictory tones to inhabit the same song. The group will likely play material from their raucous 2015 debut Farang.

Jun 3, 11pm S First St between San Carlos & San Salvador

Richmond-based glam-oddballs Major Powers and the Lo-Fi Symphony are hard to pin down. This offbeat trio do a lot with a little, deploying drums, guitars and keys along with frequent three-part harmonies in quirky numbers that rock as hard as they jest. On “Fake It Till You Make It” the band starts out on a bouncy psycho-circus rumba—which recalls the old “Mr. Six” theme song for Six Flags—before blowing everything up and getting all Freddie Mercury with a massive Queen chorus. This is perhaps the funnest and funniest band playing this year’s festival.

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY ARIES (March 21-April 19): Life is in the mood to communicate with you rather lyrically. Here are just a few of the signs and portents you may encounter, along with theories about their meaning. If you overhear a lullaby, it's time to seek the influence of a tender, nurturing source. If you see a type of fruit or flower you don't recognize, it means you have a buried potential you don't know much about, and you're ready to explore it further. If you spy a playing card in an unexpected place, trust serendipity to bring you what you need. If a loud noise arrives near a moment of decision: Traditionally it signifies caution, but these days it suggests you should be bold.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Your body is holy

and magic and precious. I advise you not to sell it or rent it or compromise it in any way—especially now, when you have an opening to upgrade your relationship with it. Yes, Taurus, it's time to attend to your sweet flesh and blood with consummate care.

Find out exactly what your amazing organism needs to feel its best. Lavish it with pleasure and healing.

Treat it as you would a beloved child or animal. I also hope you will have intimate conversations with the cells that compose your body. Let them know you love and appreciate them. Tell them you're ready to collaborate on a higher level.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): "The most intense

moments the universe has ever known are the next 15 seconds," said philosopher Terence McKenna.

He was naming a central principle of reality: that every new NOW is a harvest of everything that has ever happened; every fresh moment is a blast of novelty that arises in response to the sum total of all history's adventures. This is always true, of course.

But I suspect the phenomenon will be especially pronounced for you in the near future. More than usual, you may find that every day is packed with interesting feelings and poignant fun and epic realizations. This could be pleasurable, but also overwhelming. Luckily, you have the personal power necessary to make good use of the intensity.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Nobody likes to be scrutinized or critiqued or judged. But we Crabs (yes, I'm one of you) are probably touchier about that treatment than any other sign of the zodiac.

(Hypersensitivity is a trait that many astrologers ascribe to Cancerians.) However, many of us do allow one particular faultfinder to deride us: the nagging voice in the back of our heads. Sometimes we even give free rein to its barbs. But I would like to propose a transformation of this situation. Maybe we could scold ourselves less, and be a bit more open to constructive feedback coming from other people. Starting now.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): The lion's potency, boldness, and majesty are qualities you have a mandate to cultivate in the next three weeks. To get in the righteous mood, I suggest you gaze upon images and videos of lions. Come up with your own version of a lion's roar—I mean actually make that sound—and unleash it regularly. You might also want to try the yoga posture known as the lion pose. If you're unfamiliar with it, go here for tips: tinyurl.com/lionpose. What else might help you invoke and express the unfettered leonine spirit?

A LT E R N AT I V E MEDICINE

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): "What does it matter

how many lovers you have if none of them gives you the universe?" French psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan posed that question. I invite you to put it at the top of your list of hot topics to meditate on. In doing so, I trust you won't use it as an excuse to disparage your companions for their inadequacies.

Rather, I hope it will mobilize you to supercharge your intimate alliances; to deepen your awareness of the synergistic beauty you could create together; to heighten your ability to be given the universe by those whose fates are interwoven with yours.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): From my study of the lost prophecies of Nostradamus, the hidden chambers beneath the Great Pyramid of Cheops, and the current astrological omens, I have determined that now is a favorable time for you to sing liberation songs with cheeky authority . . . to kiss the sky and dance with the wind on a beach or hilltop . . . to gather your most imaginative allies and brainstorm about what you really want to do in the next five years. Do you dare to

By ROB BREZSNY week of May 31

slip away from business-as-usual so you can play in the enchanted land of what-if? If you're smart, you will escape the grind and grime of the daily rhythm so you can expand your mind to the next largest size.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): "On some hill of

despair," wrote poet Galway Kinnell, "the bonfire you kindle can light the great sky—though it's true, of course, to make it burn you have to throw yourself in." You may not exactly feel despair, Scorpio. But I suspect you are in the throes of an acute questioning that makes you feel close to the edge of forever. Please consider the possibility that it's a favorable time to find out just how much light and heat are hidden inside you. Your ache for primal fun and your longing to accelerate your soul's education are converging with your quest to summon a deeper, wilder brilliance.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You're in a phase when you have the power to find answers to questions that have stumped you for a while. Why? Because you're more open-minded and curious than usual. You're also ready to be brazenly honest with yourself. Congrats! In light of the fact that you'll be lucky at solving riddles, I've got three good ones for you to wrestle with. 1. Which of your anxieties may actually be cover-ups for a lazy refusal to change a bad habit? 2. What resource will you use more efficiently when you stop trying to make it do things it's not designed to do? 3. What blessing will you receive as soon as you give a clear signal that you are ready for it?

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): A typical Capricorn

cultivates fervent passions, even to the point of obsession. Almost no one knows their magnitude, though, because the members of your tribe often pursue their fulfillment with methodical, businesslike focus. But I wonder if maybe it's a good time to reveal more of the raw force of this driving energy than you usually do. It might humanize you in the eyes of potential helpers who see you as too strong to need help. And it could motivate your allies to provide the extra support and understanding you'll need in the coming weeks.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): In accordance with the astrological omens, I invite you to carry out a flashy flirtation with the color red. I dare you to wear red clothes and red jewelry. Buy yourself red roses. Sip red wine and savor strawberries under red lights. Sing Elvis Costello's "The Angels Want to Wear My Red Shoes" and Prince's "Little Red Corvette." Tell everyone why 2017 is a red-letter year for you. For extra credit, murmur the following motto whenever a splash of red teases and pleases your imagination: "My red-hot passion is my version of high fashion."

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): "If you want a puppy,

start by asking for a pony," read the bumper sticker on the Lexus SUV I saw. That confused me. Would the owner of a Lexus SUV be the type of person who didn't expect to get what she really wanted?

In any case, Pisces, I'm conveying a version of this bumper-sticker wisdom to you. If you want your domestic scene to thrive even more than it already does, ask for a feng shui master to redesign your environment so it has a perfect flow of energy. If you want a community that activates the best in you, ask for a utopian village full of emotionally intelligent activists. If you want to be animated by a focused goal that motivates you to wake up excited each morning, ask for a glorious assignment that will help save the world.

Your imagination is the single most important asset you possess. Listen to the podcast: http://bit.ly/YourProphecy

New VR exhibits at Tech Museum designed to inspire empathy

BY GARY SINGH

I

N THE NEW exhibit Reboot Reality, The Tech Museum of Innovation harmonizes the polarities of material excess and homelessness.

Located upstairs on the second level, the showcase partners with Silicon Valley heavyweights Adobe, HP, Stanford and Google on several different projects involving VR, augmented reality or mixed reality.

The headlining experience comes in the form of Birdly, a one-of-akind VR flight simulator allowing users to fly through the skyline of Manhattan. It’s not just a headset.

The user straps into a birdlike set of wings and flaps his or her arms in various maneuvers, all to soar through the New York City skyline.

Birdly looks impressive, but I didn’t want to visit Manhattan. Instead, I wanted to yell at my landlord, live in my car, and then ride the bus with homeless people. All of which I could do at another VR project, one produced by researchers from Stanford’s Virtual Human Interaction Lab. Generally speaking, the lab encourages visitors to explore how VR

affects the way we feel about ourselves, each other or the environment. In other words, they research VR’s role in the development of empathy.

The Stanford project allows the user to experience what it’s like to lose your apartment and be forced to live on all-night public transportation vehicles. The adventure opens up with the landlord banging on the door and screaming for the rent money while the user sits inside his place, pointing the VR controllers at certain items in the apartment, deciding which ones to pawn first.

But after selling most everything, he still doesn't have enough. As a result, he winds up living in his car. After the user sells his car, the next scene puts him on the bus with nothing but a backpack to his name, all while trying to avoid a shady character harassing those on the bus who are homeless.

The scene is obviously modeled after

Technically Feeling

VTA route 22, which only gets more depressing as every year goes by.

On the bus, the user then points the VR controllers at each homeless person to hear that person's story, the background of how he or she became homeless, and what it feels like. The point of it all is to ascertain VR’s usefulness—as opposed to other media—at increasing empathy. Folks from the Stanford lab, including staffer Elise Ogle, were on hand to explain their success in doing just that.

For me, this was not so “virtual” in that I often already ride on the same buses with homeless people. And don't even get me started on the rent scenarios around here. But the VR experience absolutely increased my empathy and decreased my apathy.

Being an inward-looking dude to begin with, it was nice to contemplate the issue without being surrounded by a zillion people arguing about it.

Don’t get me wrong: plenty of happy stuff exists in Reboot Reality.

Adobe’s newish project, Wetbrush, for example, was on display in full force. Using ultra-high-end NVIDIA hardware and a super-hi-tech stylus, people can now paint in 3D on a screen, imitating many of the techniques and parameters in analog oil painting. One can implement brush techniques, pushing harder or softer with the stylus to fan the brush out. The user can create layers, textures, and engage with other processes from real painting. After which a 3D-printed version can be created, one that looks similar to a real oil painting. Daichi Ito, a technical artist from Adobe’s Imagination Lab, was on hand to demonstrate the product. He was previously an animation student at SJSU. Other projects in the show include “Sprout” by Hewlett-Packard, allowing users to scan physical objects and mix them into Snapchat filters.

“Medium” by Oculus allows users to enter a VR world and create their own sculptures out of clay.

None of the projects involve consumer technology that we’ll see in our homes, or on the bus, any time soon. But that’s the point. The Tech now has an experimental space where Silicon Valley companies can beta-test their VR projects on the general public. So if you want to berate your landlord, go to The Tech instead. You might learn something and acquire empathy in the process.

PRE-TIPOFF TAP Rookies Sports Lodge will open an unusual type of keg hours before Game 1 of the NBA Finals.

Release the Firkin!

R

OOKIES SPORTS LODGE has snagged one of Lagunitas Brewing Co.’s rare firkins. Now the inevitable question: What’s a firkin?

In this case, it’s a type of keg made of wood or steel, but the key is how to tap it. The keg must be laid on its side, horizontally pierced with a breathing tube then banged through with a mallet to get the beer out.

It’s a decidedly messy affair.

“It’s a big mallet and they go boom, boom! Then they pour it straight into the glass,” says Rookies owner Mike Hobson (pictured).

A relative newcomer to the downtown San Jose bar scene, Rookies will release the firkin—which will be filled with Lagunitas’ 12th of Never ale—at 5pm Thursday, just an hour before the Golden State Warriors and Cleveland Cavaliers tip off in Game 1 of the NBA Finals.

The name of the beer within the firkin comes with its own story.

Lagunitas Brewmonster—you read that title right—Jeremy Marshall reportedly said he would brew the company’s first beer in a can on the 12th of never, hence the name. It features a blend of old-school and newschool hops, and it can be found on tap in bars throughout California.

But the firkin itself is a rare sighting.

“They only make two kegs that they release in California,” Hobson says.

“It’s literally one of those beers that everyone loves. It’s a crowd-pleaser.”

Lagunitas first released 12th of Never in cans last summer. An American Pale Ale, the beer checks in at 5.5 percent alcohol by volume.

Described as tropical and hoppy, yet full-bodied, according to the Beer Advocate, the brew blends coconut and papaya flavors, creating a refreshing citrus taste.

“Probably the best beer we could possibly decide to put into a can,” Marshall says in one of his #mouthfeels YouTube videos.

The event lands on the same evening the Warriors and Cavaliers face off in the finals for the third straight year, with both teams intent on winning the rubber match. Tipoff is set for 6pm, and guests should plan to arrive early or make a reservation via OpenTable. —Payje Redmond

A look inside San Jose politics and culture

sanjoseinside.com

It’s depressing when the only place you’re ever “registered” is at the DMV. There’s a reason you suspect your experience is a meaningful pattern, and it’s the same reason people think they see the Virgin Mary in their toast. Our minds are meaning-making machines.

We evolved to be deeply uncomfortable with uncertainty—probably because an uncertain world is a more dangerous world. Say a man hands you some blue liquid in a glass. You’re all, “Hmmm… should I drink that or take it home in case I ever need to dissolve a dead body in the bathtub?”

We figure out what things are by looking for patterns—ways that the things match up to things we’ve encountered before. So, regarding that blue liquid, yes, Drano is blue, but it isn’t sold in a martini glass and garnished with a tiny paper umbrella. Also, bartenders keep their job by having you pay your tab.

Although our mind’s tendency to recognize patterns helps us quickly identify threats and opportunities, it often does this too quickly and on too little evidence. Neuroscientist Michael Gazzaniga and psychologist Daniel Kahneman each caution that our mind is so intent on having things be concrete that when we’re faced with ambiguous or incomplete information, it will invent a tidy explanation to fill in the blanks. Your mind may be doing that now in seeing a meaningful pattern in guys sweeping you off your feet and then, like that annoying shopper who’s just reached the register, their going: “Ooops…don’t want this one. Gonna run and grab the other one. Sorrreeeeee!” However, epidemiologist and stats ninja Sander Greenland reminded me that just because we’re prone to see a pattern where there is none doesn’t mean a particular pattern isn't meaningful (as opposed to occurring randomly—by coincidence, like if you tossed a coin and got heads three times in a row).

One way you figure out whether something is due to coincidence or is a real effect is by having lots of examples of it. If you’d dated 10 men who’d left you

to marry somebody else, it might say something. Might. But three? Greenland points out that in looking at what seems to be a pattern, “we tend to forget the times it didn't happen (like before we started noticing the claimed pattern).” Also, if you believe there’s a pattern—that you’re a sort of fruit bin where men go to ripen— maybe you start acting differently because of it, coloring your results.

In short, maybe this is a meaningful pattern or maybe it is not. What you can explore is whether there are patterns in your behavior that could be tripping you up. There are three biggies that research suggests can be relationship killers.

Blatant Boy-Chasing: Men often claim they like it when women ask them out. However, research suggests that this may permanently lower a woman’s worth in a man’s eyes. Men value women who are hard to get, not those who eagerly pursue them— sometimes with all the subtlety of a golden retriever chasing a hotdog.

Being Hard To Be Around: A review of research on personality by psychologist John M. Malouff finds three characteristics that are likely to eat away at a relationship: neuroticism (a psych term for being nervous, chronically distressed, and volatile), a lack of conscientiousness (being disorganized, unreliable, and lacking in self-control), and disagreeableness (being an unpleasant, egotistical, hostile and argumentative mofo).

The Undercooked Man: Behavioral science research supports the evolutionary theory that women—even today— prioritize male partners who can “invest” (a preference that men coevolved to expect).

For example, marriage researchers Barbara Dafoe Whitehead and David Popenoe find that “men want to be financially ‘set’ before they marry.” Career attainment and stability are likely a major part of this. So, unfortunately, a relationship with a man in transition can end up being a sort of FEMA tent on the road to housing.

Ultimately, instead of deeming yourself death row for “happily ever after,” try to choose wisely and be a valuable (rather than costly) partner.
