Opinions expressed are mine, but also yours if I do my job right.
That’s what this contest is about. If you believe as I do, I invite you to join me.
For inspiration, you can watch a montage of the 2021 winners:

We have been conditioned through relentless negative media and predictions of apocalypse to believe that mankind has no hope.
While it is true that we face great challenges and have made many mistakes, I believe that humanity has the spirit and ability to overcome them.
If you aren’t either of the above, please spread the word about this contest to people who might be. We seek entries from artists from all over the world!

If you are an investor or philanthropist, I invite you to pitch in for the prize pool. You can offer to award your own prizes for the submissions or donate to increase the awards for the ten winners chosen.
Why am I doing this?
We need a new and optimistic vision of our world. We can create a better future.
And to bring it about, we need not only science and better politics, but a new aesthetic. We need art and music and film that paints a picture of what this future can be.
I am running another contest to award $2000 to the ten best pieces of original solarpunk art.
The contest will run from Jun 20 - Aug 20, 2025.
Details within - and if you support this, please send this to your best artist friends!

I’ve never been an early enough user on a social network before that I was actually part of the cold-start phase. Woo!
