Glenn Jones w. Matt Sowell and John St. Pelvyn
Glenn Jones is an instrumentalist of unparalleled skill and creativity. As a masterful raconteur Jones’ guitar work is both complex and sublime, intricate and emotional. His deep knowledge of the world of American Primitive music and his abilities on the fretboard have made Jones a pillar in his community. With each album Jones chronicles his experience, looking to the past or capturing the present with limber melodies that potently communicate the underlying emotions of the songs. Jones’ flair for storytelling shines in a live setting where origin stories are quite often the song’s introduction. It not only makes for an exceptional evening of listening, but one that draws on the deep traditions of country blues. The Giant Who Ate Himself and Other New Works for 6 & 12 String Guitar is Glenn Jones at his most vivid, exploring memories old and new through beautifully woven threads of melody.
Jones will be joined by Matt Sowell and John St. Pelvyn on the nights bill. A new chapbook will be available at the event on the life and influence of John Fahey. Edited by Sam Gould and Bradford Bailey (editor of The Hum), the booklet includes texts and interviews by Gould, Bailey, and Steve Lowenthal, author of the Fahey biography Dance of Death: The Life of John Fahey, American Guitarist

C.R.E.A.M. – An afternoon on Money, Art, Activism, & Intentionality
We’re very excited that two heavyweight minds will be joining us at Beyond Repair’s Assembly space for an afternoon of readings and lectures on Money, Art, Activism, & Intentionality (& More!).
Please join us in welcoming Max Haiven and Cassie Thornton for the launch of Max’s new book from Pluto Press, Art After Money, Money After Art: Creative Strategies Against Financialization, and Cassie for Collective Psychic Architecture, an artist talk.
“Art After Money, Money After Art: Creative Strategies Against Financialization” book launch with author Max Haiven
From the publisher (https://www.plutobooks.com/
“Perhaps the most theoretically creative radical thinker of the moment” David Graeber
“Daring, brilliant, provocative. At last a radical critique of the crypto-approach and an abolitionist approach to the problem of money and art” Franco ‘Bifo’ Berardi
Max Haiven is Canada Research Chair in Culture, Media and Social Justice at Lakhead University in Northwest Ontario. His books include Crises of Imagination, Crises of Power: Capitalism, Creativity and the Commons (Zed 2014) and Cultures of Financialization: Fictitious Capital in Popular Culture and Everyday Life (Palgrave Macmillan 2014).

“Collective Psychic Architecture” – artist talk with Cassie Thornton
Cassie will discuss a current architectural project in process, (in collaboration with Curator, Taraneh Fazeli) that gives physical form to the invisible, psychological and social ramifications of financialized healthcare and social support. As part of the traveling workshop and exhibition series called “Sick Time, Sleepy Time, Crip Time: Against Capitalism’s Temporal Bullying” Thornton used plain building materials and many hours of help from gallery preparators to produce the physical architecture of financialization, whose invisible powers keep most US residents from getting the care they need to thrive. Collective Psychic Architecture is an opportunity to see, touch, hit or break through the wall that keeps us from seeing or experiencing a world organized around life and health.
Cassie Thornton is an artist and activist from the U.S., currently living in Canada. Thornton is currently the co-director of the Reimagining Value Action Lab in Thunder Bay, an art and social center at Lakehead University in Ontario, Canada.
Thornton describes herself as feminist economist. Drawing on social science research methods develops alternative social technologies and infrastructures that might produce health and life in a future society without reproducing oppression — like those of our current money, police, or prison systems.

A Talk by Robby Herbst: Imagining A Different City/Llano Del Rio Rebel City Los Angeles
City as Commons Group Presents:
A Talk by Robby Herbst: Imagining A Different City/Llano Del Rio Rebel City Los Angeles
———————–
In this talk spanning sociology, movement theory, and urban practices, Robby Herbst of the Llano Del Rio Collective will introduce the new Rebel City Los Angeles guide; presenting the ideas behind the guide, the evolution of the collective’s work, and share their vision for what the city can be.
The Rebel City Los Angeles guide answers the question, what would Los Angeles look like if vertical power as we know it disappeared?. The illustrated two sided guide helps users visualize the city from below, providing details of a developing infrastructure of people-centered institutions supporting human activities outside corporate dominion; from electricity, housing, education, medicine, and banking. Los Angeles born saint Vaginal Davis said “riding on the subway system and buses,,, are the Southland’s true barometer and soul of the city” and the guide hopes to help you take the temperature. Publication lists over 60 sites, and includes essays by Tracy Jeanne Rosenthal and Robby Herbst. Rebel City Los Angeles is a part of the Llano Del Rio Rebel City Project.
Inspired by the 2015 movie Tangerine, the Spanish Municipalist Movement, and David Harvey’s book Rebel Cities, the illustrated two sided guide helps users imagine the city from below, providing details of an infrastructure of people-centered institutions supporting human activities outside corporate dominion; from electricity, housing, education, medicine, and banking. The publication lists nearly 100 sites and includes essays by Tracy Jeanne Rosenthal and Robby Herbst. It is a part of the wider Rebel City Los Angeles project.
Rebel City Los Angeles guide is the 6th guide to Los Angeles created by the Llano Del Rio Collective. Previous guides include: Power Points, Utopias of So.Cal., An Antagonists Guide to the Assholes of L.A., Scores For the City, and A Map For Another L.A.

Join the City as Commons group, in collaboration with Palmar Alvarez-Blanco, as we host a presentation by writer, performer, and co-founder and member of the newspaper DIAGONAL, Laura Corcuera González de Garay.
Laura will speak about the media, performance, feminist activism and municipalist politics in post 15M Spain.
Located at Beyond Repair / Assembly
2854 Columbus Ave.

She’s no taller than 5’2’’, but she has studied with great teachers like Jango Edwars, Phillipe Gaulier, Eric de Bont, Esther Ferrer, Antonia Baehr and el Odin Teatret, among others. Her last performative experience was realized in conjunction with the US collective La Pocha Nostra (Atenas, June 2015).
“I combine writing, journalism, performance, theater, and public dissemination of the sciences. I am a feminist activist of the interstellar precariousness, before being a salaried employee of highly respected State institutions. I demonstrate a spirit and vocation for public service; I am a creator of the imaginary institution of society, I can be a transformer for material and immaterial realities, I have a strong commitment to ethical practices, justice, beauty, and wealth distribution. I love the Mediterranean arc, southern Europe.”

“We may see the overall meaning of art change profoundly – from being an end to being a means, from holding out a promise of perfection in some other realm to demonstrating a way of living meaningfully in this one.”
Allan Kaprow
Our friend Robby Herbst at the Llano del Rio Collective & Speakers Bureau posted this amazing Municipalist Bibliography compiled by Alan Moore (who came out to MPLS this time last spring to begin our conversations on Municipalism). Check it out, it’s a fantastic resource!
Tonight’s the night, folks! Join the City as Commons group and Beyond Repair for the opening of What Can a City Be? A Municipalist Gathering. We will begin two days of conversations and workshops tonight at the Carlson School at UMN (info below) with a panel discussion considering “from below organizing” from international, national, and indigenous perspectives with our guests Carol Maziviero (São Paulo, Brazil), Daniele Tognozzi (Berlin, Germany), & William “Naawacekgize” Quackenbush (Ho-Chunk Nation / Wisconsin).
The conversations that we, as the City as Commons group, have been hosting over the last year have been invigorating. Opening up multiple avenues of thought regarding how we come together, building power across difference, and what it means to be “neighborly” in our present, deeply contentious moment. I’m extremely excited to bring more people into this conversation to see where it grows.
I hope to see you this evening, and if you can’t make it, please take a look at the schedule in full to see what other events you might attend.

Panel Description
7-9pm
@ Carlson School 1-123
University of Minnesota (West Bank)
“Cities as Commons? Exploring Municipalist Movements in International and Rural Contexts”
Talks and panel discussion with Carol, Daniele, and Bill that will invite comparisons between international and rural perspectives on municipalism, including topics such as direct democracy, social power and reproduction, organizing bottom up movements, rural-urban divides, and the rise of democratic alternatives to the centralized state.
Carol Maziviero (São Paulo, Brazil) – Researcher on insurgent urbanism, and urbanism in the digital age from the Architecture School of the São Judas Tadeu University in São Paulo,
Daniele Tognozzi (Berlin, Germany) – Artist, activist and urban studies researcher from Spatial Strategies at KHB Weißensee (http://raumstrategien.com/) and Tesserae Urban Social Research (http://www.tesserae.eu/).
William “Naawacekgize” Quackenbush (Ho-Chunk Nation / Wisconsin) – Indigenous activist and scholar, Tribal Historic Preservation Officer for the Ho-Chunk Nation (http://ho-chunk.com).
On Thursday night What Can a City Be? will host its first conversation between activists from Sao Paulo, Berlin, and the Ho-Chunk Nation of the Kickapoo Valley in the Driftless Area of Wisconsin. Bill Quackenbush, Historic Preservation Officer for the Ho-Chunk Nation, and one of our nights conversants, made the suggestion that we host a cultural exchange for the evening, an idea that we thought perfectly fit the tone and nature of the gathering in full.
And so… Please consider bringing an item that reflects upon you personally. These items will be exchanged at various times during the evening. Bringing something is not mandatory for attendance.
Folks – Next Friday night at 6:30 I’ll be at CTUL leading a conversation about the power and promise of a city that supports, rather than drowns out, the narrative of a multi-subject urban experience.
How would MPLS be a different place to live were we discuss (and live!) our lives together as a vast, at times in and at times out of step, series of histories and experiences, realities and dreams? Rather than a narrative of “MPLS is this…” what is to be gained from, “MPLS is this, and this, and this, and this…”? A “Yes, and…” urbanism!
I’m so excited to walk up the street from home to one of the most vibrant spots in the neighborhood to discuss this with friends I have these types of conversations with often, like Jeremiah Bey Ellison, Jennifer Newsom Carruthers, & Sarah Jane Keaveny, and folks I am recently getting to know, like Tina Sigel, & Ginger Jentzen. – Sam
This is, of course, all part of the City as Commons Group, and Beyond Repair’s, gathering next week, What Can a City Be? Here more info on that…

“Imagining the Just City: Movements Across Difference”
We all know that the city is an amalgam of subjects, but how is that played out, and how can we begin to move past certain powerful subjects objectifying others in an attempt to create a “common narrative?” With a nod towards pioneering queer activist Harry Hay and his ideas on subject-subject consciousness, our conversation considers the benefits of a heterogeneous city and how municipalists can create the conditions for subjecthood to thrive and for multiple narratives to flourish simultaneously.
Panelists: Jeremiah Bey Ellison (City Councilperson – Ward 5), Jennifer Newsome (Dream the Combine), Ginger Jentzen (15 Now, Socialist Alternative), Tina Sigel (Restorative Justice Community Action), Sarah Jane Keaveny (RN/BSN, mother, nurse, poet, activist, enthusiast)

What Can a City Be? (A Municipalist Gathering)
Since the 2016 presidential elections, the Twin Cities based “City as Commons” group has been meeting to discuss, learn and find out more about municipalism, a form of political organization gaining popularity around the world, based on assemblies of neighborhoods, practicing direct democracy, as an alternative to the centralized state. A goal of the group has been to develop collaboration among academics, activists, and artists interested in urban governance and social reproduction in the Twin Cities and to put them in conversation with colleagues across North America, Europe, and South America who are studying, and/or experimenting with, municipalist forms of governance.
In a two day series of talks, panel discussions and workshops, learn more from local artists, academics, activists, and thinkers, along with three international and rural activists and scholars whose work has explored these issues:
Carol Maziviero (São Paulo, Brazil) – Researcher on insurgent urbanism, and urbanism in the digital age from the Architecture School of the São Judas Tadeu University in São Paulo.
Daniele Tognozzi (Berlin, Germany) – Artist, activist and urban studies researcher from Spatial Strategies at KHB Weißensee (http://raumstrategien.com/) and Tesserae Urban Social Research (http://www.tesserae.eu/).
William “Naawacekgize” Quackenbush (Ho-Chunk Nation / Wisconsin) – Indigenous activist and scholar, Tribal Historic Preservation Officer for the Ho-Chunk Nation (http://ho-chunk.com).

Location: 1219 University Ave SE (University Baptist Church / http://www.ubcmn.org/)
“What is Possible? Sharing Housing Rights Strategies Across Rebel Cities”
Based on his experiences organizing neighborhoods against the commercial development of Berlin, Daniele will lead a workshop in collaboration with Twin Cities based neighborhood organizers that will demonstrate how international activists and artists can learn from each other about tactics for bottom up organizing of municipalist movements.
Workshop led by Daniele Tognozzi, Kristen Eide-Tollefson (Preserve Historic Dinkytown), Erich Wunderlich (community organizer)
FRIDAY MARCH 23 3:30-6pm
Location: 2854 Columbus Ave (Beyond Repair – Assembly)
Social mapping with Carol Maziviero:
Carol Maziviero will lead a workshop on collective mapping, where participants will use cartography to explore socio-cultural and urban issues of a particular urban area. In the workshop, through a collaborative process, participants will subvert the concept of the map and take ownership of their own territories, building local networks, and helping reveal new possibilities for social action and cooperation.
War is Trauma Pop-Up Exhibit:
War Is Trauma is a portfolio of handmade prints produced by the Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative in collaboration with the Iraq Veterans Against the War (IVAW). This portfolio transpired out of a street poster project, from November 2010, which a number of Justseeds artists provided graphics for “Operation Recovery” – a campaign to stop the deployment of traumatized troops and win service members and veterans right to heal. Posters were pasted in public, replacing many corporate advertisements, to focus public attention towards the issues not being discussed – GI Resistance, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), sexual assault in the military or Military Sexual Trauma (MST), and Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). The action led to another collaboration between Justseeds and IVAW – an “Operation Recovery” booklet published by Printed Matter in NYC and currently the War is Trauma portfolio. For this project over 30 artists from Justseeds, IVAW, and our allies have each created a print that addresses “Operation Recovery,” its larger goals of supporting service member and veterans right to heal, GI resistance, challenging the culture of militarism in the US, and ending the war in Afghanistan. A total of 130 portfolios have been created that we hope inspire 130 exhibitions that can act as a starting point to bring different people together – veterans, civilians, Iraqis, Afghans, and others to dialogue on issues. – IVAW & Justseeds

“Imaginando una ciudad justa: Movimientos a través de la diferencia”
Todos sabemos que la ciudad es una amalgama de sujetos, pero ¿cómo se desarrolla y cómo podemos salir de las dinámicas de poder que objetiviza y jerarquiza a la personas para crear una “narrativa común”? Teniendo en cuenta el gesto activista queer pionero de Harry Hay y de sus ideas sobre la conciencia del sujeto-sujeto, nuestra conversación considerareå los beneficios de la ciudad heterogénea y cómo los municipalistas pueden crear las condiciones para que prospere la subjetividad y para que narrativas múltiples florezcan simultáneamente.

Hey Folks – Free on Saturday? Can you draw better than me? Do you oppose the planned PolyMet copper and nickel mine that is sure to pollute one of Minnesota’s most beloved natural landscapes and sure to further destroy an already compromised indigenous ecological landscape? Then come on down to help EIS (Ryan Siebold & Lisa Schonberg) in creating a comic explaining the environmental impact of the mine to the state legislature. I am imagining there will be cookies available. Okay… I’ll make cookies.

A Conversation w/ DeeDee Halleck and Marisa Holmes
The Municipalist Research Group is bringing two influential media activists who have been part of radical and direct democracy movements: DeeDee Halleck (founder of Paper Tiger Television, Deep Dish Satellite Network and Democracy Now! TV) and Marisa Holmes (Occupy & Strike Debt). DeeDee and Marisa will join us in conversation about their work, including topics ranging from media politics in the age of Trump, feminism, public access, radical media, DIY aesthetics and more…
About the group: we’ve been organizing meetings, reading and research activities to collectively learn about and examine ideas around municipalism. Basically, municipalism asks questions about how to organize ourselves democratically outside of currently existing forms of institutional representation; and how to build transformative kinds of assembly and decision-making that rely on the broadest democratic base. So far, we’ve arranged readings and talks with and about Alan Moore, activists with Barcelona en Comu, Michael Hardt, Kathy Weeks, and others and there’s much more to come.
Slowly… W RL/FR is coming into view. Micro-Radio! Stop in and start a program of your own.
Much thanks, as always, to John Kim and Mark Borrello for their help. And to Marlon James for sitting and critiquing our work.
Tonight we had the first slow roll into Assembly life. It was gentle and beautiful. Thank you to all who converged.
Friends, Humans: It’s official Wooden Leg Print & Press 0001 is released today. And who better to begin this journey with than John Saint Pelvyn (aka to the people on the street as Steven Matheson). This first release, Five Years Inside the Sun, was recorded on Wellfleet, MA. in collaboration with Ka Baird (Spires That in the Sunset Rise), with additional help from Camilla Padgitt-Coles. Our buddy, Jenny Schmid, produced an amazing illustration that serves as a beautiful fold-out cover, concealing radiant translucent gold vinyl.
Steven’s music has been a low hum of joy, and an exhilarating balm in tough times and beautiful moments alike. You can pick up your copy from the BR shop, or at Revolver. Check it out!!
