Graphic designer Océane Dubujet created an art project inspired by Glass and Gardens: Solarpunk Summers ed. @sarenaulibarri.bsky.social and referencing my story "Watch Out, Red Crusher!". I love it! New hashtag #inspiredbysolarpunk #solarpunk #solarpunkart www.instagram.com/p/DLaMkQwIAj...

Histoire de possibles pt.2 ☆Deuxième partie du projet ! La forme de cet objet éditorial découle l'analyse de la nouvelle Watch Out, Red Crusher écrite par Shel Graves.Résumé du récit : "C’est une histoire qui prend place dans un futur lointain dans lequel l’humanité à trouvé un autre moyen d’alimenter ses cités en énergie. Dans cette alternative, des injections de particules sont faites dès la naissance dans le corps des nouveaux nés : cette injection leur permet par la suite de générer de l’énergie par photosynthèse. Le revers de la médaille cependant : les émotions sont désormais visibles sur la peau une fois la nuit tombée. Les couleurs jaillissent alors dans l’obscurité. Une mauvaise émotion rend son propriétaire sujet aux discriminations. On suit pendant quelques jours Andee, une jeune fille qui à des difficultés à rester au vert. S’en suivra de nombreuses péripéties, discussions, rencontres et introspection au travers de ses yeux et de ceux de ses proches."Cette histoire fait constamment référence à la couleur : un jeu de ping pong se fait dans la lecture, passant rapidement d'une teinte à l'autre.Les images sont abstraites et mettent l'accent sur la nature lumineuse et sentimentale des personnages.Basé sur le triangle, cette proposition qui met en avant une manipulation tangible implique les lecteur.ices autour d'un centre de rotation qui n'est plus seulement de l'ordre de tourner les pages.Cette forme éditoriale propose un modèle de lecture à plusieurs en se déployant sur 3 cahiers distincts. Chaque saut de cahier est mis en exergue en fin de paragraphe pour se repérer.Cahiers au format fini 17x22 cm, 64 pages, socle en carton gris.* La nouvelle provient du recueil "Glass And Gardens: Solarpunk Summers", une anthologie éditée par Sarena Ulibarri.View all comments

Thank you so much! It’s one of my favorite pieces, honestly, and I’m so glad it has the opportunity to reach a new audience. 😊

"There are all kinds of different ways to run a conservation program to save an endangered species, but it’s almost guaranteed you’ll never have read anything like what the Somerset Eel Recovery Project gets up to."

I guess this has probably already gone viral somewhere but I am simply dying at this picture of a bear that looks like it hired a photographer to do a glamour shoot

I'm never so bold as to claim that the things I enjoy are objectively "the best," but Five Books asked me for a list of #solarpunk books I recommend, so I listed five I think more people should read.

All novels, too, instead of short stories! I also talk a bit about one of my own books. #booksky
