This is All Happening Right Now: Solarpunk, cultural fracking and the real Jurassic Park with Jay Springett
🕑 Added 2020-09-30 14:45:17 +0000 UTC
Back with a conversation with a special person and close friend of the podcast Jay Springett
Jay is a writer, theorist and podcaster who falls into a special category of people where we can say with some confidence that whatever they are thinking about will be commonplace in a few years. We discuss a passion of his, Solarpunk, cultural fracking, universe construction, permaculture, Russia’s real jurassic park, K pop and the factory model, reality modelling and aerospace, conspiracy theories and much more.
Can’t recommend enough that you check out Jay’s various cultural contributions, and hope you are all having a wonderful week.

thanks for the suggestion, those are fascinating! Led to this piece on Moses' arguments with Jacobs I was previously oblivious to https://www.theguardian.com/cities/2016/apr/28/story-cities-32-new-york-jane-jacobs-robert-moses
The part of the conversation about neoconservative work being distinguishable from solarpunk by the former’s defining lack of humans reminds me of Robert Moses’ planning drawings. https://www.boweryboyshistory.com/2010/11/abstract-beauty-of-robert-moses-most.html
