Punkcore - Fiction and Punk Philosophies

Time for a little ramble about the types of stories which usually have "punk" as a suffix. I had a conversation with some people about this and wanted to discuss what we ended up talking about. First off, to explain this title, we explored a difference between core and punk as suffixes. Our general conclusion was that you could have two stories with the same near future tech orientated aesthetic and not have both be Cyberpunk. For instance, Batman Beyond could be described as Cybercore because while it does discuss corporate corruption and the detriments of capitalism it isn't the central focus of this show. Meanwhile, for Blade Runner the human relationship to AI and the role of technology in their dystopia is foundational to its premise. There's a tackling of politics within the premise, which is crucial in determining whether a story is core or punk.

Now, different forms of Punk media will tackle different issues. Cyberpunk such as "Cyberpunk", Blade Runners, or The Matrix tackles humanity's relationship to technology, AI, autonomy, our bodies, and corporate greed in some respect. Solarpunk obviously discusses our relationship to the environment, duties of stewardship, communal responsibility, spiritual wellness, and responsible agriculture. Steampunk can often engage with ideas of colonialism, imperialism, early stages capitalism, class or other social hierarchy, repression, as well as the dangers of autocratic political structures. Other themes and ideas can be explored within them, it's perfectly possible to have a Cyberpunk lean into Solarpunk if it discusses how technology and corporate greed has impacted the environment. However, a story with all the aesthetics of Steampunk which focuses entirely on an issue of environmentalism could be argued to be a Steamcore story with a environmentalist narrative. The Mortal Engines is an example of a Steamcore world with a story built around a Solarpunk issue of scarcity and climate change.

Why does it matter what themes are discussed alongside which aesthetic? Well simply put it's because those aesthetics belong to those political issues. Most people who look at Steamcore would tell you it's got a late Georgian to Edwardian aesthetic (exaggerated definitely, yet recognisable). The issues of colonialism, social division by class, autocratic politics, imperialism, are all heavily associated with that era. It was in this period that the British Empire was at it's most active, so to borrow those aesthetics and discuss another topic pulls the punk out of it. The aesthetics themselves are inherently tied to the politics they are borrowed from, so you can certainly have a Cybercore story about repression and class but you aren't engaging with the politics of that aesthetic. Arcane is a great example of Steampunk as it engages with all the politics of its aesthetic very well. Similar to how "Cyberpunk" engages with the themes and ideas behind its aesthetics to be Cyberpunk.

Not all stories will discuss these politics in the same way. Whereas Steam/Cyberpunk fiction will often present a world negatively impacted by the politics of these aesthetics, Solarpunk tends to take a different route. As it stands, a world shaped by the issues Solarpunk discusses would not be very habitable for humans. A great number of Solarpunk stories instead describe worlds, cities, communities which are more utopian than dystopian. However, these narratives will always typically contrast a comparatively Utopian present to the Dystopian past in which there were significant environmental issues. Solarpunk engages with the politics of its aesthetic as a hopeful alternative to the climate crisis of modern times. The worlds presented are not without strife or complaint, but typically there is an emphasis on restoration than degradation.

Of course punk stories are as varied as the way punks can dress. But if you want some quick examples to dive into different genres of Punk then let me recommend:

Cyberpunk: Blade Runner, Tron, Carol and Tuesday (I'm of the opinion it's Cyberpunk, it's also a little Astropunk).

Steampunk: Arcane, and "The Northern Lights" by Philip Pullman.

Solarpunk: "The Glass and Gardens: Solarpunk Summers" by Sarena Ulibarri, and "Foxhunt" by Rem Wigmore.

Astropunk: Haven't talked about this one but Gundam is very much Astropunk, as is Star Trek but it tackles the issues similarly to Solarpunk by means of contrast.

As always these are opinions, they can be wrong, my recs can by bad blah blah blah. I'm just relaying a convo and the thoughts, but if you wanna talk about it I'd enjoy that.

Sound Off: 10 New Songs You Need to Hear Now It's impossible to be across all the new music out each Friday. Luckily, PAPER is here to help you out: each week, we round up 10 of our favorite new songs from artists — emerging and established — to soundtrack your life. From the surreal to the sublime, these songs cover every corner of the music world. The only criteria: they all have to absolutely rip.Rosalía — "LLYLM" Rosalía's latest song is fairly traditional compared to her wild 2022 record Motomami, but it's no less beautiful than usual — her voice is gossamer and gorgeous, as always.Samia — "Honey" Although it builds to a hearty, homespun campfire singalong, Honey’s lyrics capture the kind of hedonistic images usually associated with mainstream radio pop. It's a disarming combination whose sweetness belies concealed anxiety. Frost Children — "FLATLINE" Beneath the bloghouse pulse, there are interesting touches to be found in "FLATLINE" — like the ribbony vocal line that opens the song or the slight note of discord that it ends on — that give it a chic, elevated sheen. Related | Inside PAPER and DKNY's Holiday Party With Frost Childrencorook — "the dog" Channelling Phoebe Bridgers, corook finds anguish and heartbreak in the small details of a breakup: dividing up shared possessions and having to deal with all the memories they're loaded with.Meghan Trainor with Kim Petras — "Made You Look Remix" Kim Petras shows off her versatility by lending her vocals to this remix of Meghan Trainor's viral hit. It's got a far more organic sound than we're used to hearing from her, but she still stands out. Related | Inside Kim Petras' Big 'Saturday Night Live' DebutTove Lo — "Dancing On My Own" Tove Lo's distinctive, silvery vocals are the star of this pared-back Robyn cover, a momentary pivot away from the dancefloor that's lovely and understated.Astropunk and 100 gecs — "XANS IN MY ASS" The final nail in hyperpop’s coffin? It’s hard to say. Listen at your own peril – if you're interested in pure, unabashed bedlam and slightly edgelord-y jokes.Rita Ora — "You Only Love Me" Sleek and rhythmic, this is Rita at her best — cleanly accessible and deeply catchy, it's almost definitely going to be inescapable on pop radio for the next 18 months.The Kid LAROI — "Love Again" The Kid LAROI strips his sound back to acoustic guitar and little more on this aching country ballad, a strong showcase of his songwriting and vocal talent. Zach Bryan with Maggie Rogers — "Dawns" Ragged-voiced country star Zach Bryan links up with Maggie Rogers on this beautiful, anthemic song, which is built around beautifully unadorned strings and simple, homespun guitar.Photo courtesy of Columbia Records https://www.papermag.com/sound-off-rosalia-2659320333.html

Some cookie character designs based on some ideas ive had in a while :3

Palm trunk was based on the idea of golden cheese being an actual bird!, which made me think “hey, what if theres birds that look like golden cheese OH AND WHAT IF THEYRE PHOENIXES” i think something like that was in the crk artbooks?? I dont remember

Spacekeeper was simply “hey. Timekeeper. Time AND SPACE. spacekeeper!!!” I tried to keep this astropunk vibe but i also wanted it to resemble moonlight, timekeeper in a way and the mysterious cookie teased at the end of chapter 15

The partnership with Lenge is the first since the ZTX Web3 platform undertook the Genesis Home Mint that sold out on OpenSea. ZTX and Lenge intend to offer futurist fashion items to the Genesis Home owners in the coming months to make the 3D ecosystem more lively.  Although the pricing is not yet revealed, some of the Lenge collectibles will be available to Genesis Home owners at no cost. After raising $13 million in a seed funding round led by Jump Crypto and undertaking the Genesis Home mint on the OpenSea NFT marketplace that sold out in hours, the ZTX metaverse platform has now announced the first partnership geared towards providing investors with exclusive futuristic collectibles through a strategic partnership with Lenge, a popular content creator with keen focus on virtual fashion.  According to the announcement, the partnership between the ZTX Web3 platform and Lenge will provide the Genesis Home owners with the first digital collectibles to decorate their district homes.  The Lenged platform has a reputation among customers for creating intriguing products, having already worked with Adobe, among many others. The platform has more than 18 million global followers and managed to generate over $2 million in sales last year. The partnership with  ZTX is the first geared toward providing fashion products through blockchain technology amid the mainstream adoption of digital assets. Lenged creates disruptive fashion products like clothing and 3D accessories that will be offered through the Arbitrum layer two chain on OpenSea for all initial ZTX NFT holders. Drawing inspiration from astropunk culture, the inaugural drop will consist of three distinct collections of head-to-toe 3D wearables and will be available exclusively to owners of ZTX Genesis Homes. Why the Partnership Between ZTX and Lenge Matters to Crypto Enthusiasts  Through the Avatar Builder, ZTX Web3 platform has managed to enrich its immersive 3D world with creative content. In mid-July this year, the ZTX metaverse platform announced the first wearable collaboration with Dust Labs to provide NFT holders with diverse options for investing and interacting with emerging Web3 projects. Having successfully rolled out a token-gated experience for DeGods holders where they can claim DeGods-branded hoodies and sweatpants within the Avatar Builder, the ZTX platform is now taking the experience to the next level with Lenge. “We’re excited to announce the first district-specific partnership of our Genesis Homes community. The designs that we have collaborated on for the collections are truly cutting-edge and we believe our community will be thrilled to encounter the work of such a top-level creator as Lenge. This is great news for our Fashion District home owners, but we are extremely committed to continuing to bring value to all the individual districts of ZTX,” Alexx, Chief Futurist and creator at ZTX, noted in a statement. In a bid to reward holders of the Genesis Home collectibles, the company has noted that some of the products created by Lenge will be available to ZTX customers at no cost. Moreover, the pricing and the timing of the inaugural NFT drops have not yet been confirmed to the public. “I’m very pleased to be able to announce the collaboration we have been working on for a long time. Having been one of the pioneering creators on the legacy Web2 platform, I am very bullish on the Web3 vision of ZTX and hope to contribute to its mission of mainstream adoption for crypto. I hope that more creators will also join ZTX, as blockchain is not going away and ZTX is well positioned to play an important role in the industry,” Lenge, the founder of Lenged, said. Market Outlook  The ZTX metaverse platform issued 4,000 District Homes through the ERC-721 format on the OpenSea NFT marketplace. Having listed on the OpenSea for a floor price of about 0.06 Ether on August 30, the value had risen to about 0.27 Ether with a total volume of around 193 ETH during the third week of September. 

With the mainstream adoption of blockchain gaming projects, ZTX is expected to remain among the top runners. The ZTX project has committed content creators, investors and a vibrant community backed by the ZEPETO social movement. Additionally, the ZTX products are running on the Arbitrum layer-two network that has a reputation for high scalability with military-grade security from the Ethereum blockchain.
