Hello, Tumblr!
Hiya Tumblr! This is the official Solarpunk Presents podcast account, which will be posting our podcasts (bimonthly... every two weeks ... however you like to say it), posts from our blog https://solarpunkpresents.com and reblogging / liking excellent solarpunk content. We're just starting up our second season, so we don't have a ton of content right now, but watch this spot for podcast episodes that explore the people and projects working on bringing us a better world today. The podcast is cohosted by Christina De La Rocha and Ariel Kroon, who is the one writing this post and talking about herself in third person like a weirdo.
If you listen to our show and like what you hear, leave us a nice review on your podcatcher platform? We'd super appreciate it. If you have some money to spare and would like to support solarpunk content, we also have a Patreon, where Patrons get early access to our episodes + bonus content sometimes, when we get a minute.
Stay solarpunk!
-Ariel
Next on XLE.LIFE's New Terms 2024 list is the very broad arena of Futurisms. I've posted this in two sections so far:
XLE.LIFE: New Terms 2024: Futurisms--Part I: Intro >>
A very brief and loose introduction to futurisms with a similarly loose timeline, in case you've never heard this term in your life!
XLE.LIFE: New Terms 2024: Futurisms--Part II: A List of Emergent Futurisms >>
The more exciting part of the futurisms research--a sprawling, wild list of 235 (and counting) genres of futurisms, including several I've named or predicted. Looking at this list, especially in an array, really makes me feel some type of way. I hope it makes you feel a way also. What a time to be alive.

What lies ahead? Reimagining the world. Only that.

We are all familiar with the term suspension of disbelief. At a guess, less of us know secondary belief. It’s a Tolkienism that he used in a way quite similar to how we use suspension of disbelief – that we look at all the impossibilities and instead of laughing, think “well that’s just how it works here”. For Tolkien, the difference is that secondary belief is what is just happens, and suspension of disbelief is what happens when secondary disbelief fails and the reader has to make a conscious decision whether to keep acting like it’s there.
SECONDARY BELIEF VS SUSPENSION OF DISBELIEF
An important point here about worlds.
We don’t suspend our disbelief when we enter an online/virtual world. We are invited to belive in them.
If anyone is interested in further reading on Tolkien and his position on secondary belief and world building, the opening chapters of Building Imaginary WorldsThe Theory and History of Subcreation by Mark J.P. Wolf is a good place to start.
