Since I keep mentioning my Big #solarpunk Essay quite often, I made a new shortcut link to it:

Solarpunk: lenses and foundations

Round Mirror by Ethan Sees Last year I published a lengthy videoessay on Solarpunk as a part of collaboration with a philosophical YouTube channel "Myśleć Głębiej" (Think That Through in English).

2051: SolarPunk Odyssey
As ecological succession unfolds, a solarpunk-ish community travels in search of a new place to live.

On February 29, 2024, we submitted a project to the Chaos Computer Club competition for a grant for an artistic work depicting a utopian vision of a community in times of chaos.

For obvious reasons, we believe that TePeWu is creating and realizing just such a vision. So we asked ourselves what might be happening to our community in 2051 - and we intend to provide the answer in art form. You can see details of our project here: https://tepewu.pl/en/2024/03/2051-solarpunkowa-odyseja/

If your Cyberpunk world does not have an energy crisis, it's not punk, it's just sparkling neonliberalism.
Here is a thing I wrote in 2018:

If you use #AI to make AI art or writings about #Solarpunk to share wildly, then you are part of the problem.

Stop using capitalist spam tools to push out real artists and writers and claim you're doing it for a #Solarpunk world. The amount of carbon dioxide and other pollution being released to train and maintain AI is enormous and contributing to the climate change drivers.

AI is just another scam by tech bro investors who wanted another bubble to burst so they can take the profits and run, while the rest of us have to deal with the consequences of endless fucking SPAM in all arenas of life.

So using AI to make AI art or AI anything for #Solarpunk projects is contributing to the very problem that Solarpunk wants to address.

Stop it.

Instead, come to us creative folks and work with us to use our creative works in the project. And be willing to compensate us because unlike AI, we actually need to eat. If you're truly committed to a Solarpunk world, this would be built into your praxis anyway. We ought to be caring for each other so that no one is left behind.

Thanks for reading.
