In Australia, over 4 million people have rooftop solar and it provides so much power at peak times of the day, electricity prices go into the negative. So the Solar Sharer program will offer three hours of free electricity during off peak hours.

Zoefuturism: guest blog by Yen Ooi ⋆ BrightFlame

Everything is relational, a core concept of Zoefuturism, which aligns well with solarpunk and the notion of interconnection.

Hello friends!

A year or two ago I read a really lovely #solarpunk / #hopepunk / #anarchist short story where civilisation was quietly collapsing and nearby folks looked after each other. In particular, it featured folks taking shifts on bicycle generators to keep an oxygen generator running for an elderly couple.

I cannot find the story or remember its name, but it was sweet and lovely and I think of it often.

Does anyone have a link/author/title?

Many thanks!

During one of the much smaller disasters that preceded the really big disaster, I met a lot of my neighbors online. I can’t remember if we set up the WhatsApp group because of the pandemic or the civil disorder or both.

Wind: A Solarpunk Short Film

I'll shoot this film in the first week of June. We had to create costumes, props, and construct sets from scratch, since it's set in the future and we can't use everyday items, and it punched a hole in the production budget, so I'm doing this last mi…

I'm set to shoot #windShortFilm a #solarpunk comedy in June, so this last mile campaign is to cover basics like food, transport, etc. We made all costumes, props, and set constructions from scratch and it strained our budget since it is a futuristic story with no central governments, and no #capitalism Everyone participates in running the country. Help me make it!

This is a very Accelerando-like issue we're up against. I remember when the music copyright mafia busted in and attacked Manfred and how he had a near constant influx of patents and lawsuits coming and going, so much so he required external brain augmentations to process/handle everuthing, and most lawsuits were not even from humans. It's sounding more and more familiar every day. Manfrer was really on to something refusing to deal in money. The future really is a foreign country... 🤷
