  • Illustrator Bochica uses knowledge to make the world a better place, to help people express the utopia inside them. He is a social muralist, who supports war-victims communities in Colombia. Concerning the cover art, he wrote the following:

    *The technique used was mixed, acrylic and ink on canvas. Painting this piece was a real challenge—synthesizing and imagining a culture made of many ancestral cultures. The arch was inspired by art nouveau but also by Hindu art, while the figures reference both southern and northern Native American cultures. The pillars are like “totems” of Native American origin, but the figures are inspired by Indigenous peoples of South America and the South Pacific, from Easter Island, the Maori, through the Incas to the Mayans and Aztecs. These columns also reference the legend of “Huitaca” from the muysca people, which speaks of a demon who ascended and became the owl—a symbol of wisdom and knowledge in many cultures. In this case, I wanted to refer to the novel’s great library. The circles are inspired by the sun but are also inspired by speakers, referencing the “voice of the people” and social organization within solarpunk.

    At the top, there’s a kind of staircase inspired by the “chakana,” an Incan symbol representing the connection between the human world and higher realms.

    The mermaid is inspired by “Yemaya,” who is an Orisha or goddess in the Yoruba culture from Haiti.*

  • I appreciate you being clear this isn’t solarpunk. It is contorting economics to try to make it humane.

  • As much as I love bioluminescence, it is too dim to do more than mark paths.

  • I do not have much faith in motion sensors differentiating between animals and humans. Also, if they only turn on when your close, that might not help with perceived danger.

  • I only read the solarpunk specific posts, and it is very positive. (I get more negative news when I’m ready for it on Bluesky.)

  • What would you like to see in solarpunk art of ships/boats/coasts?

  • Not very topical, but hilarious nonetheless.

    Why USA progressives (solarpunks) should vote for Harris

    Jump

  • Well, it is a legit question for solarpunks whether or not they should engage in a dead-end system, so I wanted to talk about it.

    Why USA progressives (solarpunks) should vote for Harris

    Jump

  • If you can’t be bothered to spend half a day voting when it could save the lives of people in your community, you are too far gone to reason with. Or just a fascist shill.

    You can burn down the system any day. Voting comes only once every few years.

    Why USA progressives (solarpunks) should vote for Harris

    Jump

  • It can be two things. One, a person can be viscerally repulsed from voting for soulless politicians like Harris. That is understandable, though I do my best to urge people to vote for her anyway.

    Two, it could be a paid shill only pretending to care for Palestinian lives, trying to prevent anyone from voting who isn’t a Trump cultist.

  • And if you read the post or watch the video instead of trying to discourage people from voting, you will see I have considered this and speak to it.
