something i've been riffing on lately to replace solarpunk /cyberpunk/etc is terrapunk - terraforming punk. to be terrapunk is to be in complete control of your environment, to be able to add to your environment such as by controlling the atmosphere to not just ~reduce~ carbon,

While I believe the Earth is important, ultimately people & their self-determination are more important. Any belief that would ask humanity to diminish itself or its freedom as option *A* (rather than last resort) is fundamentally the negative Malthusianism I'm opposed to.

I created Terrapunk for this - to create more consciousness, to expand humanity into the stars, to explore the universe @terrapunk nasjaq.substack.com/p/the-te…

sounds a lot like terrapunk 👀
A new philosophy of the future is needed. I believe it should be curiosity about the Universe – expand humanity to become a multiplanet, then interstellar, species to see what’s out there.

What do you terrapunks think about AGI timelines?
@nasjaq__ I really enjoyed The Terrapunk Manifesto! nasjaq.substack.com/p/the-te… What is the Terrapunk position on how to develop AGI? Should we make sure we get it right, or should we build it as fast as possible even though that risks everything humans care about?

Great question - been thinking about this. Two core tenets of terrapunk are human maximalism and expanding consciousness. So it really depends on personal interpretation of if AGI will destroy or enhance humanity, and therefore destroy or expand consciousness.

the terrapunk manifesto "Being constrained to earth is untenable for expanding humanity - it is stagnation, and stagnation is collapse."

if we get Dalle2 access, we'll create a ton of terrapunk art in the meantime, drop what you imagine to be the terrapunk aesthetic

Really like the idea of Terrapunk from @nasjaq__ Solarpunk is cool, but lacking in optimism. Terrapunk is more pro human, pro growth, and inspiring than Solarpunk. Let's expand throughout the universe, build Dyson spheres, and maximize human potential. nasjaq.substack.com/p/the-te…

Such a fun idea. Drones are fitted w/ different MRV kit each time so the pilots are challenged. Some tension between speed (fun) and quality of measurement (utility), but probably resolvable with high enough frame rates and good enough cameras. very terrapunk
