The Art of a Hopeful, Solarpunk Future - The Story Seed Library

The Quiet Part, August 28, 2025

"In this video I wanted to share a really cool resource for publicly available #SolarpunkArt, called the the #StorySeed ibrary at https://storyseedlibrary.org I think most people could really benefit from taking a moment to question what a better world, or better future might look like. The art and artists in this video have done an incredible job inspiring me to imagine that better future, and I hope by sharing their works I might be able to do the same for you. All of the art featured in this video has been made by hand by people, none of it is AI, just straight up human artistry."

I asked about ghosts and spirits
I asked him if he ever got spooked
I asked him if he ever got haunted by souls
But he reckons that he buries them too

In the far distant future, an Earth civilization faces annihilation as the microplastics they're evolved to depend on finally begin to run out.

I feel like this real life incident could be the basis of some sort of ghost story:

What if a bur evolved to never fall off the fur, and the plant just grows right up out of the cat, and then there’s a bunch of symbiotic plant-cats wandering around.

Author David Brin once said that it’s good practice to write at least one mystery novel.

My idea is a murderer who sets up his victim and does the deed, and is then set up by another murderer, who kills him, which sparks a series of murderers killing one another down the chain. Then enters our clever detective.
