From Capitalism Realism to Solarpunk Realities w/ HydroponicTrash, Luka Dowell, Ariel Kroon (E147)

This is an episode that Elia recorded a few months ago. We're releasing it now to take a bit of a break from our exploration of Israel-Palestine and because Solarpunk is how at least one of us, Elia, tries to create hope where none exists. This episode was recorded after the four of us - Elia, Ariel Kroon, Luka Dowell and Andre aka @HydroponicTrash took part in the Solarpunk conference. Solarpunk has an eye to a better future, but how do we get there? What is necessary for us to do, and how can we think differently, in order to make this better future possible? We focus on the relationship between speculative fiction, dual power, world-building, and political action.Support: You can support my work with⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠a one-off or monthly donation⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on Ko-fiMasterclass on Modern Lebanon:⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Registration is now open⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Newsletter: Subscribe to⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Hauntologies⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Social Media: I’m on⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Bluesky⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠,⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Mastodon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Contact: To collaborate, reach out on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Fire These TimesSocial Media: TFTT is on⁠⁠⁠⁠ Bluesky⁠⁠⁠⁠ and⁠⁠⁠⁠ Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Transcription: You can help⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Antidote Zine⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ transcribe TFTT episodes⁠⁠⁠⁠ here⁠⁠⁠⁠Website: All episodes are archived ⁠⁠⁠⁠on the website⁠⁠⁠⁠From The PeripheryTFTT is a proud member of ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠From The Periphery Media Collective⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, which you can support⁠⁠⁠⁠ on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠ and follow on⁠⁠⁠⁠ Bluesky⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠.Check out other project wherever you get your podcasts:⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Politically Depressed⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Syria: The Inconvenient Revolution⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠From The Periphery Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠The Mutual Aid Podcast⁠⁠⁠Links:https://anarchosolarpunk.substack.comHydroponic Trash on TikTokSolarpunk Now!
