I use a projector to paint buildings with light. If you live near SF, join up with orgs protesting billionaires stealing our future.

Only as long as I’m standing there with the projector. Not forever, unfortunately.

The good news for Zionist punks is they can do the right thing and stop being Zionists at any point, like that Jewish woman I saw at the encampment wearing a Kippah patterned like a slice of watermelon.

Powering it is the hard part. I use a lithium battery in constant danger of melting.

Yes, I did write that. More to the point, I wrote a solarpunk mystery novel, which I’ll post about on Monday.

Given the great response, I will post more relevant projections here. What community tag should I use?

The ebook is DRM free everywhere. I hear you about hating Amazon. You’ll be able to get it off this indie site after the release date. https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/1476498

A tool library is part of an expanded library of things in a library economy.

I uploaded my own solarpunk novel to a solarpunk “Library.” Mostly care about spreading the ideas anyway.

As in deconstructing false narratives used to greenwash crypto.

Cars are a dead-end technology that leave too many people dead by collisions and even more from unsustainable infrastructure.

Yes, the hashtags are for the poor souls who use other social sites. Here is a link for more info on APEC. https://ilpsusinfo.wordpress.com/no2apec/

Taking note for my writings. 💚

Russia would not be able to wage war in the first place if European countries had enough renewables for energy independence. Then they would be able to better pressure Russia, which is a petrostate.

Thanks! 💚 You may recognize Rita Fei’s work from the Multispecies Cities anthology.

I asked several librarians what they wanted in futuristic libraries. It was pretty basic stuff, like a bigger budget to purchase ebooks.

The next-level play would be to get your library to purchase Murder in the Tool Library, but like I said, their budgets are stretched.

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.

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.*

Wishing you a smooth reading ride with a fair breeze at your back.
