A handful of years ago, I produced a lofi podcast called - SolarPunk Permaculture. I became obsessed with the idea of designing for permanence using Permaculture Design Principles and fell in love with the emerging art and literary genre of SolarPunk. The podcast allowed me to have long-form conversations with people who I felt were practicing at the nexus between the 2 topics. It also helped me to see what it actually means to create a SolarPunk world where technology supports ecology, using different design concepts. I had many great conversations with people all around the world. A lot of the ideas explored have led me to the creation of The Learning Garden community!
