Recently I found myself playing around with Niri, a horizontally scrolling window manager for GNU/Linux-based systems. What began as an exploration into intuitive "chord-based" keybindings for driving the OS evolved into something much bigger. You can head over to the code repository on Github to install and experiment with the result:
Turns your computer into a thinking box that you can drive like a Nintendo on even the lowest common denominator hardware available.
What I seem to have stumbled upon, I am now calling an example of "solarpunk cybernetics". For those unfamiliar with these concepts, we can define them as follows:
Cybernetics is "the theory/science of communication and control in the animal and the machine".
Solarpunk is "an optimistic environmentalist subgenre of speculative fiction, art, and design that envisions future life on Earth transformed by the use of sustainable energy, close co-existence of human beings with nature, and progressive sociopolitical values".
Mash these two things together and I believe what emerges is humanity-preserving technologies rooted in Luddism and connection with the material world.
