640<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Paul March-Russell:</strong> I’m honoured to have Lisa Tuttle here to discuss her novella <em>My Death</em>, which was originally published by P.S. Publishing in 2004, reprinted by NYRB Classics, and is now available in a beautiful edition from Vintage. A number of Lisa’s other works are also being reprinted by Valancourt – <em>A Nest of Nightmares</em> and later this year <em>Lost Futures</em>, which was shortlisted for the Arthur C. Clarke Award in 1993. Lisa, it’s a delight to have you here. <em>My Death</em> is a wonderfully intricate work, so I’m going to be very careful to not give anything away. But what was it that first inspired you to write the novella?&nbsp;</p>
641
642
643
644<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Lisa Tuttle:</strong> It was a few things that came together. One is that I’ve always been interested in women writers, women artists, particularly women who’ve been sort of forgotten. I can’t think who it was, someone like Gail Godwin, who was recently talking about when she was at college, she always felt slightly embarrassed being particularly interested in women writers. It didn’t seem right. You were supposed to look at the great writers, and they were all men. Well, I’m from a slightly younger generation, and I think that by the time I got to college, there <em>
644were</em> women – women’s writing, women’s work, women’s history. The courses were just starting. This was back in 1970. So, I didn’t feel this wasn’t proper. It was like, no, now is the time to find out about all these forgotten women or the women who haven’t been celebrated.</p>
645
646
647
648<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I also read a lot of biographies and autobiographies by women and about women. And at one point, years ago, I thought I might write a biography, but it all seemed a bit too daunting. What suited me better was to write an imaginary biography of an imaginary writer or artist or muse. That was another subject that interested me: women playing the role of muse to a male artist or writer. I’d recently read a memoir of Robert Graves, can’t remember by whom (we’ve just moved house so my books are everywhere!). But one of the things was that the author and his wife went to live in Mallorca, and he had a letter of introduction to Graves, who was at that time living with the American poet and critic, Laura Riding, and the stories that he told about her just fascinated me. I was interested in writing about someone who’d been connected to a more famous male, but had her own talents, more than just being a muse. So, I took elements of Laura Riding’s life for my imaginary writer, and I began in a kind of semi-autobiographical fashion to write about a woman writer, who would have been around my age at the time.</p>

652<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The writer was widowed which I was not, and am still not, I’m very happy to say. But she had some of my own characteristics. That was a kind of a tease, in a way, because some of the things were true. I made her be from Texas, going to college in New York, and then coming over to Britain, winding up in Scotland. And the writer that she is interested in is someone she first encountered as a painted female figure, a kind of mythical person. Because that was another element. I’ve recently been going through my old notebooks, and some of the same names were in there from this story I’ve never written. It was called ‘The Fountain’, and there was a Willie Logan and a Hermione, I think, or Hermine. It was a sort of Circe story with a magical fountain and men being turned into animals. But anyway, I never wrote that, but it was something I was thinking about at the same time. And then Pete Crowther invited me to write a novella, and so suddenly I had a reason to write this, because I couldn’t really see it as a novel and it was way too complicated for a short story. And, in fact, I didn’t even know how it was going to end. When I began writing it, it was really just a character a bit like me researching someone who turns out to still be alive, so she can actually go and interview her, and then finding these rather odd connections or echoes of her life.</p>

687<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Jean-Paul L. Garnier: What was your initial attraction to works of science fiction in translation, and what made you decide to start reviewing them?</strong></p>
688
689
690
691<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Rachel Cordasco</strong>: I started reviewing Anglophone science fiction for John DeNardo’s <em>SF Signal</em> in the mid-2010s. One day, he asked if I’d like to review a work of Chinese science fiction in translation—<em>The Three-Body Problem</em>. I jumped at the chance and absolutely loved that book. But it was only when he then sent me Jacek Dukaj’s <em>The Old Axolotl</em> and Marek Huberath’s <em>Nest of Worlds</em> that I actually started thinking about what it meant that these texts were all translated. I had never thought about <em>where</em> science fiction was written, and I realized that, of course, it was written around the world. This led me to think about what other works of science fiction there were in English translation. I started a list on a personal blog, and before I knew it, I had found dozens of titles. Ten years later, I’ve catalogued thousands of short-form and long-form works of SF in translation. I’ve always loved learning other languages and I read a lot of classics in English translation when I was a teenager, so bringing together two of my favorite things—speculative fiction and translation—made so much sense. I started asking John to send me as much SFT (science fiction in translation) as he could, and then, when <em>SF Signal</em> shut down, I started my own site dedicated to SFT.</p>
692
693
694
695<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>JPG: In the ten years since founding</strong> <a href="https://www.sfintranslation.com/"><strong>https://www.sfintranslation.com/</strong></a> <strong>what are some of the most interesting things that you’ve learned, and some of the biggest gaps in the field that you’ve identified?</strong></p>
696
697
698
699<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>RC</strong>: One of the most surprising things I learned is that there is <em>so much</em> SFT out there. Early science fiction texts, especially from Western Europe in the late-19<sup>th</sup> and early-20<sup>th</sup> centuries, were being translated into English very quickly (though apparently not very accurately, in some cases, ahem ahem Jules Verne’s stories). When you start looking into the speculative novels, anthologies, and collections that were published in translation throughout the 20<sup>th</sup> century, you find that so many of these books just flew under the radar or went out of print quickly. This process of finding and cataloging as much SFT as I can is basically my way of excavating items that aren’t buried but just hidden in plain sight.</p>
700
701
702
703<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I’ve learned that Japanese science fiction developed at warp speed following the American occupation of the island following World War Two; I’ve learned that giants of American golden age science fiction like Isaac Asimov and Theodore Sturgeon wrote introductions to anthologies of Russian science fiction at the height of the Cold War; and I’ve learned that, despite the fact that so much speculative fiction has been translated into English, the Anglophone genre world has mostly (except for the 70s and 80s) ignored SFT…until recently. Hopefully, the tide is shifting once again toward SFT and more speculative fiction readers will learn about what people are writing and thinking about around the world.</p>

776<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Introduction by Yen Ooi and Stephen Oram</h2>
777
778
779
780<p class="wp-block-paragraph">When we started thinking about the call for articles last year, we wanted to approach it in a Zoefuturistic manner – by giving space and creating opportunities for the issue(s) and articles to ‘become.’ As a new topic, we were very aware that this is a process of exploration and discovery, more than a call to enforce and curate what we think Zoefuturism is. It needed to be reflective and malleable.&nbsp;</p>
781
782
783
784<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In this article, we will look at three of these creative reflections of Zoefuturism through different lenses:&nbsp;</p>
785
786
787
788<ul class="wp-block-list">
789<li><em>Compost Futures</em> by the London Science Fiction Research Community Co-Directorate</li>
790
791
792
793<li><em>Station to Station</em> by Goblin Futures</li>
794
795
796
797<li>“Narrative Structures and Zoefuturism” by Christopher Morrison</li>
798</ul>
799
800
801
802<p class="wp-block-paragraph">While all three pieces explore very different topics and perspectives, they are all reflections of Zoefuturism through practitioners’ creative action, and they form a Zoefuturistic response, as reactions to the introduction of Zoefuturism, playing with the ideas of our futures through relationality and constant becomings.</p>

859
860<p class="wp-block-paragraph" id="narrative-structures">In the West<sup><a href="#ftnt1" id="ftnt_ref1">[1]</a></sup>&nbsp;there is one story structure primarily taught to readers and practitioners alike. The Aristotelean 3-Act Structure/The Hero’s Journey. I’m well aware that’s&nbsp;<em>two</em>&nbsp;structures, but they are so inter-linked now as to be extensions of one another. And, most importantly, they share a core philosophical purpose. That purpose: re-enforce Heroic Individualism. The Protagonist must be the one to solve the problem. They, and only THEY. Some assistance is rendered along the way, but in the climax, it is them and them alone (usually smashing) their way to the end. And that end as a teleological conclusion forgives (or ignores) all things that came before.</p>
861
862
863
864<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Anything else is considered a “subversion of” or “breaking the rules”. But, as Matthew Salsess &nbsp;asks, “Who writes those rules?” (Salesses, Matthew.&nbsp;<em>Craft in the Real World: Rethinking Fiction Writing and Workshopping</em>. New York: Catapult, 2021.) It is the dominant culture in the West. Patriarchal, white supremacist<sup><a href="#ftnt2" id="ftnt_ref2">[2]</a></sup>, heteronormative. Those values that hold up a human&nbsp;being… all at once illustrating the protagonist as special&nbsp;<em>and</em>&nbsp;the norm. The story’s purpose is to make them a static, fixed Hero.</p>
865
866
867
868<p class="wp-block-paragraph">So, if this structure serves to support the Culture of Being in the West, what structures could support a culture of Becoming from Asian Cultures not shackled to the mast of Individualism?<sup><a href="#ftnt3" id="ftnt_ref3">[3]</a></sup>&nbsp;What structures could a writer creating in a Zoefuturist context rely on to illustrate Human Becoming and relieve their woes about what comes next in their story?</p>
869
870
871
872<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Taking a cue from the absolute basic root of Dr. Ames’ work and the language he is immer
872sed in, let’s look at&nbsp;<em>ShengSheng</em>&nbsp;(生生)&nbsp;– Procreativity. This word Dr. Ames presents as a crucial part of the early Cosmology of Confucian thought<sup><a href="#ftnt4" id="ftnt_ref4">[4]</a></sup>&nbsp;and gives us a perfect jumping-off point: &nbsp;</p>
873
874
875
876<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Repetition.</p>
877
878
879
880<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We all understand one of the crushing features of humanity is the repetition of life. Buddhism tackles this issue with the simple mantra: “Before enlightenment: chop wood, carry water. After enlightenment: chop wood, carry water.” The road to human becoming must run directly through repetition just as the word and pictogram in Chinese suggests in its very form.</p>
881
882
883
884<p class="wp-block-paragraph">However, the West abhors repetition<sup><a href="#ftnt5" id="ftnt_ref5">[5]</a></sup>&nbsp;(except in cases of utter personal sacrifice to the destruction of oneself<sup><a href="#ftnt6" id="ftnt_ref6">[6]</a></sup>) and worships at the feet of novelty.<br>New or perish! You are only as good as your last ____!</p>
885
886
887
888<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Yet repetition itself holds true meaning-making. True becoming. But in Western storytelling it’s relegated to a “callback” or some “comment” on one form or another and not the core engine to drive story and meaning.</p>
889
890
891
892<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Let’s explore a few structures where repetition is the heart and engine of its purpose.</p>
893
894
895
896<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Spirals: first brought to my attention through the work of Jane Alison.<sup><a href="#ftnt7" id="ftnt_ref7">[7]</a></sup>&nbsp;Humans are pattern recognition machines, therefore to create a literary or dramatic spiral one repeats meaning by bringing back a panoply of artistic resources. Place, character(s), theme(s), color, etc. Most powerful in the resource kit is repeating&nbsp;<em>events</em>&nbsp;in your story. What one may lose in novelty one gains in grounding your audience – their pattern recognition (and their simple act of becoming themselves – living life) brings the repetition to awareness and, if done well, the question – Why? Why repeat this now? Here? Or the repetition simply becomes the Breath of the narrative. Inhaling on return – exhaling on leaving – or vice versa. It is a structure that is close to life itself.</p>
897
898
899
900<p class="wp-block-paragraph">While not a Zoefuturist film, let’s look at Wong Kar-Wai’s&nbsp;<em>In the Mood for Love (Wong Kar-wai, dir. In the Mood for Love. Block 2 Pictures, 2000)</em>. A love story where its lovers are not allowed to consummate their love… or even say the word to each other. They are married to others while falling in love with each other. It is primarily a Spiral of place. Hallway, stairway, alleyway. All intermediate places – not defined. Not of themselves, but conduits to other locations. Perfect locations for a relationship that isn’t formed – isn’t one or the other. The characters are also suspended; neither really married nor free; not in love, but in love. Repetitions of their own conditions. The continuous use of smoke as a repeated image in the film is powerful. Sure, it looks damn cool, but it’s neither solid nor liquid. Neither here nor there… just slowly looping around itself and evaporating. Repeating. Spiraling.</p>
901
902
903
904<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Next, we’ll look at ‘nested’ structure.</p>
905
906
907
908<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Mainly known from the&nbsp;<em>1001 Arabian Nights&nbsp;</em>and the film&nbsp;<em>Rashomon.&nbsp;</em>Nested stories are stories-within-stories without being anthology or connected episodic in nature. Story layers. Characters may re-appear, settings may re-appear<sup><a href="#ftnt8" id="ftnt_ref8">[8]</a></sup>&nbsp;but what certainly repeats is theme and/or a central question or as Henry Lien likes to point out:&nbsp;<em>culture</em><sup><a href="#ftnt9" id="ftnt_ref9">[9]</a></sup>.</p>
909
910
911
912<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Again, here’s a structure that reflects life’s journey. We are stories-within-stories. We hold our story, our family’s story, we are minor or major characters in everyone’s stories that surround us. And other’s stories can affect us directly or indirectly if we appear in them or not. As Dr. Ames points out through Zoetological philosophy we are “…interdependent human ‘becomings’ rather than discreet human beings… [through a relational understanding].<sup><a href="#ftnt10" id="ftnt_ref10">[10]</a></sup>”</p>
913
914
915
916<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><br>Nested structure allows writers to sift through the depth of our humanity all in one frame. The flow of this structure is the essence of interconnected ‘becoming’. Again, like life, the more we lift the lid and interact with the depths and layers underneath the more meaning and interconnectedness we experience.</p>
917
918
919
920<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In conclusion, ‘spiral’ and ‘nested’ narrative structures are available to writers of every form and genre, but are especially powerful in a Zoetological and/or Zoefuturist context. They allow for a direct reflection into the bones of the work and to elevate stories from a single individualist journey into the wider world-view of human becomings. By leaving behind the strictures of Western storytelling obsessions we can imagine and enact a more interconnected future.</p>

999<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As meaning-seeking beings, we live in alternating cycles of embracing or fearing the natural world. Literature offers a good framework for observing this ancient and ongoing ‘battle’ for the human spirit between the manifestation of our reverence and stewardship of nature and our fear of something that could so easily kill us.  As industrialisation moved us further away from nature, and humans started living almost completely dis-attached from the natural world, we saw a resurgence of the need to find belonging in the greater order. The last two hundred years have presented a shift in our attitudes towards our surroundings and an influx of philosophies and literature that try to reconnect humans with 
999nature.</p>
1000
1001
1002
1003<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Environmentalism has clearly entered the focus of modern worries, but it often presents shortsighted forms that ignore the bigger picture. By focusing on the more immediate and visible concerns, environmental campaigns often prioritise narrow objectives while overlooking the negative structural downside of some of the green politics (e.g. &#8220;green colonialism). The climate crisis and the development of the Anthropocene as a theoretical background for our concerns are lacking in a holistic outlook of reality and often showcase similar dangers as our previous attitudes towards the natural world. While there is a rising concern about the land, it is through an anthropocentric point of view. As long as we keep seeing ourselves as separate to the non-human lifeworld, we will live incomplete existences, and our solutions will be forever lacking. What is needed is “a futurism of connectedness, engagement, and relationality, a futurism of ‘life-becomings’” (Ooi, n.d.). And this reflection on the need for interconnectedness has recently been championed by new subgenres of science fiction.</p>

1011<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Storytelling has always been a mirror to the soul of humanity. It focuses the collective emotions and concerns in a metaphorical and philosophical format that offers more than simple escapism. Up until now, science fiction in particular has offered the best platform where the concerns of our present and future are laid out in the format of cautionary tales of how our environmental damage leads to post-apocalyptic scenarios. There are countless examples of stories focused on ecological collapse such as <em>The First and Last Men</em> by Olaf Stapledon that explores humanity’s eventual extinction, the dystopian future of <em>Metro 2033 </em>by Dmitry Glukhovsky where humanity is almost extinct and earth ravaged by radiation, <em>The Road</em> by Cormac McCarthy that is set in a post-apocalyptic setting following a cataclysmic event, the grimdark world of the <em>Warhammer 40K </em>universe where after the AI wars mankind is plummeted into a dark universe of chaos and death. These are just some examples out of a very vast body of literature which express the climate anxiety our society feels.</p>

1049<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Enfolding world-building, community-making, and problem solving, the act of play is itself a powerful act of speculation. It can offer entertainment or education. It encourages, or sometimes sidesteps, empathy. It draws attention to the ways that stories are constructed and how we experience them.&nbsp;</p>

1053<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In the context of video games, <a href="https://blog.playstation.com/2026/07/01/physical-disc-production-ending-in-january-2028-for-new-games-releasing-on-playstation-consoles/">the recent announcement by Sony</a> that it will halt production of physical game discs by 2028—and the attendant backlash from the gaming community—encourages us to think about physical vs. digital media and legacy access, and how economics factors into <em>how</em> we play, and for how long. Some games, like That Dragon, Cancer and <a href="https://steamcommunity.com/app/3245330">The Final Exam</a>, may barely be said to be ‘played’ at all: more experienced, and learned from. Play can inspire joy, flow states, immersion—or desolation.&nbsp;</p>

1164<p class="wp-block-paragraph">What do we do when we talk about Zoefuturism? This essay argues that Zoefuturism and CoFuturisms are not merely aesthetic or speculative categories, but infrastructural practices of collective world-making. I propose a framework for understanding how these movements intervene in social imaginaries through genre formation, manifestos, and boundary-making practices, while also examining their material implications for the communities and infrastructures from which they emerge. To that end, I draw on my previous theorization of the role genre mechanics play in the formation of collectivities.</p>
1165
1166
1167
1168<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Although they are envisioned here as operationally connected, speculative fiction, CoFuturisms, and Zoefuturism should not be treated as interchangeable categories. Speculative fiction is a broad narrative mode oriented toward hypothetical worlds, alternative temporalities, and estrangement from consensus reality. CoFuturisms, by contrast, designate culturally situated interventions that mobilize speculative methods to contest dominant imaginaries and produce alternative social horizons. Zoefuturism differs from both in that its central organizing principle is relationality itself: an ontological emphasis on “interconnected becoming” across human, nonhuman, ecological, and material forms of life. Where speculative fiction often asks what futures might exist, and CoFuturisms ask who gets to imagine and inhabit those futures, Zoefuturism asks how forms of life become entangled in the production of futurity.</p>
1169
1170
1171
1172<p class="wp-block-paragraph">CoFuturisms as a conceptual umbrella emerged with the publication of the Routledge Handbook of CoFuturisms and its survey of speculative works from the world’s periphery, many of which blur the boundaries between art and activism. Like the imaginaries from which they emerge, CoFuturisms are collective constructions shaped by forces operating at both macro and micro levels. As digital media theorist, poet, and software designer Jason Edward Lewis writes, they “create a field of ‘future facts,’ a fully realized reality that exists somewhere down the timeline, waiting for us to catch up to it” (11). More broadly, CoFuturisms often emerge through science fiction (SF) and speculative practices, commonly appropriating their methods, to critique dominant imaginaries and intervene micropolitically in the present. As science fiction scholar Taryne Jade Taylor observes, “CoFuturisms is a movement that is found both within science fiction and fantasy and also reaches past the boundaries of speculative fiction” (2023).</p>

1179
1180<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In conversation with the editors of this special issue, I was provided with the following conceptualization of Zoefuturism: “Zoefuturism as a genre is founded upon the understanding that all things are relational—where descriptors, characteristics, or even a sense of ‘being’ depend upon everything around them—and that everything is constantly becoming, much like our DNA. As such, Zoefuturism is not political.”</p>
1181
1182
1183
1184<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I interpret Zoefuturism as an attempt to articulate a relational understanding of the world that moves beyond binary frameworks by foregrounding becoming, interdependence, and ecological entanglement. Unlike many futurisms organized around identity, technological acceleration, or emancipatory struggle, Zoefuturism situates relationality itself as the condition of futurity. Its emphasis falls less on representing marginalized futures than on rethinking the ontological assumptions through which futures are imagined in the first place. Yet Zoefuturism cannot escape political impl
1184ications simply by rejecting explicit political identification. Like CoFuturisms, it shapes how reality is narratively and institutionally organized through language, cultural production, archives, and the social imaginaries that orient collective life. Its politics emerge less through ideological declaration than through interventions into the conceptual and affective infrastructures governing how relations between life forms are understood.</p>
1185
1186
1187
1188<p class="wp-block-paragraph">These interventions occur through genre itself. Genres are not merely aesthetic containers but social formations circulating among texts, communities, markets, and institutions. Because genres organize recognition, expectation, and participation, they function as technologies of collective becoming. Speculative fiction provides many of the formal tools that make such interventions narratively intelligible, while CoFuturisms mobilize those tools toward situated cultural and political projects. Zoefuturism, in turn, redirects speculative practice toward relational ontologies that destabilize distinctions between nature and culture, subject and environment, and human and nonhuman life.&nbsp;</p>

1230<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Of the many contemporary subgenres of sf that can claim they originated as a reaction to the cyberpunk revolution of the 1980s, one of the oldest is certainly &#8220;biopunk&#8221;, especially if one counts the mini-genre of &#8220;ribofunk&#8221; – shouted into existence by the American writer Paul Di Filippo (1954-) in 1990, and just as quickly extinguished – as a legitimate precursor (Di Filippo 1990).  Probably only &#8220;steampunk&#8221;, coined by K.W. Jeter (1950-) in 1987, is older (Nicholls and Langford 2025). </p>
1231
1232
1233
1234<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;Biopunk&#8221;, as it is used today, refers to a subgenre of sf that adopts many of the stylistic and narrative tropes of cyberpunk – a focus on stories built around an ensemble cast of petty criminals, (gene) hackers and chancers, urban subcultures, and a &#8220;revolt into style&#8221; (if the reader will pardon the throwback to the cultural criticism of an earlier era) (Melly 1970) – while sourcing its McGuffins from biotechnology, rather than cybernetics. In this contemporary sense, biopunk has its origins in the American genre writing of the 1990s, with the first documented use (from two different, and almost certainly unconnected sources) in 1992, and the subsequent attempt to identify precursors in earlier genre history.<sup data-fn="297ae90a-563c-4c6f-b3c5-15155d429335" class="fn"><a href="#297ae90a-563c-4c6f-b3c5-15155d429335" id="297ae90a-563c-4c6f-b3c5-15155d429335-link">1</a></sup></p>
1235
1236
1237
1238<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Di Filippo takes this as far back as H.G. Wells&#8217; <em>The Island of Doctor Moreau</em> (1896); of more recent antecedents, Greg Bear&#8217;s <em>Blood Music</em> (1985) and Bruce Sterling&#8217;s <em>Schismatrix</em> (1985) are frequently cited (Di Filippo 1990; Schmeink 2014b, 32).  From these American genre roots, biopunk has spread around the world and into other media, film and TV in particular. The hit TV show, <em>Orphan Black</em> (2013-2017), with its saga of a shadowy organisation trying to direct the future of human evolution through gene hacking and the complications that arise when some of its human clones escape, would be a good example. All of which makes a neat teleological narrative of exactly the kind that, in theory, every self-respecting punk of whatever persuasion is supposed to abhor; and none of which quite holds together when examined in a broader framework. <br /><br />Because there is a catch – of course, there is – and in a European context, this neat timeline is disrupted by the Czech writer Eva Hauserová (1954-2023), also known as Eva Hauser, who in 1988 independently came up with a literary intervention she called &#8220;biopunk,&#8221; and her coinage pre-dates the American one. This sits uncomfortably with the official chronicle, making her something later critics have had to explain away, though there are also those who have simply ignored her. (For the former, see Schmeink, who will be discussed below; for the latter, a simple Google search will reveal any number of biopunk, or biopunk-adjacent websites that have no idea of Eva&#8217;s existence.)  </p>

1314<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>An essay by Manda Scott (August 2025</strong>)</h3>
1315
1316
1317
1318<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><em>“At times, a single fluctuation … may become so powerful … that it shatters the preexisting organization. At this revolutionary moment … it is inherently impossible to determine in advance which direction change will take: whether the system will disintegrate into ‘chaos’ or leap to a new, more differentiated, higher level of ‘order.’” – Alvin Toffler</em></p>
1319
1320
1321
1322<p class="wp-block-paragraph">If we who write can craft clear routes from a recognisable present, mapping towards a future that engages people at the limbic level, we can help tip the balance to a future where a critical mass of us begins to <em>yearn for the outcomes offered</em>, and <em>change will happen</em>.&nbsp;</p>
1323
1324
1325
1326<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This is the explicit foundation of the Thrutopian genre: offering route maps—of which there are, self-evidently, an almost infinite number—towards a future we would be proud to leave to the generations that will follow us.&nbsp;</p>
1327
1328
1329
1330<p class="wp-block-paragraph">If we can imagine forward seven generations and look into the eyes of a young person living in the world for which we have laid the foundations, if they feel safe, confident, fully connected to all parts of themselves, each other and the Web of Life, then we’re on the road to the emergent edge of inter-becoming from which an entirely new system can potentially arise.</p>
1331
1332
1333
1334<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As writers, we can gather the building blocks that are already emerging and make of them stepping stones across the river. Stretching the metaphor to breaking point, the narratives we thereby shape must at least offer a glimpse of a reason to cross (motivation), the means to make the crossing (agency), the route to take (direction) and the freedom to take it (empowerment).</p>
1335
1336
1337
1338<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This is the heart of behavioural change:&nbsp; MADE:&nbsp;</p>
1339
1340
1341
1342<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Motivation: with all my heart, I yearn for a future I can glimpse but not yet embrace;&nbsp;</p>
1343
1344
1345
1346<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Agency: I have the tools to take the first steps towards this future;&nbsp;</p>
1347
1348
1349
1350<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Direction: I know the routes away from my present state that will lead me towards the future I yearn for;</p>
1351
1352
1353
1354<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Empowerment: I am free of constraint in the present moment enabling me to take the steps and wield the tools in ways that will be effective.</p>
1355
1356
1357
1358<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Each of these belongs squarely in the realms of creative imagination. I am not pretending that crafting these is easy; it’s not. One of the many reasons there are so many dystopias and so few genuine Thrutopias is that it’s mind-bendingly hard to find peaceful routes to an equitable world in which humanity flourishes in concert with – even in service to &#8211; Life.&nbsp;</p>
1359
1360
1361
1362<p class="wp-block-paragraph">But it isn’t impossible and frankly, if the hardest thing we have to do in the next decade is get our heads around the thinking that already exists at the emergent edge of possibility, then we will be supremely lucky.&nbsp;</p>
1363
1364
1365
1366<p class="wp-block-paragraph">And this is the single most important point. If you take nothing else away, please believe me that there are people already working at the emergent edge of wide boundary systems thinking, of food and farming systems (we have to abandon industrial agriculture as a matter of urgency), of biomimicry, doughnut/ecological/degrowth economics, distributed governance systems, regenerative use of AI, urban and rural planning based on fully regenerative principles…</p>
1367
1368
1369
1370<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Every one of these is actively being pursued, it’s just that our legacy media runs with the old style mindset of ‘if it bleeds, it leads’ and they’re not up to speed (yet) with the idea that the existing system is disintegrating and a new one is already emerging from the ashes.</p>
1371
1372
1373
1374<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This is part of the Thrutopian narrative shift of which we are an integral part: building routes through, from a recognisable present towards a future we’d all be proud to leave to the generations that come after us.</p>

1390<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Science fiction often envisions not just technological innovations but societal ones. For example, Ursula Le Guin’s <em>The Dispossessed</em> imagines an anarchic/communist society that is broadly utopian in its ideals and has distinctly different arrangements and values surrounding ownership. However, there are few novels that show the process by which we might get from where we are now to such a future. Kevin Kelly coined the term ‘protopia,’ which describes the process of improvement over time. Rupert Read similarly talks about ‘thrutopia’: how we get from where we are now to where we’d like to be, i.e. a flourishing, sustainable society. The idea was so powerful that bestselling author Manda Scott set up a Thrutopia masterclass for writers: “writing our way to a future we’d be proud to leave to the coming generations.” She moved from writing historical fiction to a novel set in the near future, <em>Any Human Power,</em> which adopts the thrutopian approach.&nbsp;</p>
1391
1392
1393
1394<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In this article I discuss some of the books published by Habitat Press, an indie publisher with a niche interest in stories that showcase thrutopian or protopian pathways. There are numerous ‘cli-fi’ stories that present dystopian visions of what will happen if we don’t act. These 
1394can be unexpectedly problematic, as research has highlighted the dangers of trying to ‘scare people green.’ Dystopian stories run the risk of fear-driven counterproductive responses, such as the blaming of marginalised groups or buying up all the toilet rolls. There are also numerous eco-fiction stories that persuade us to love nature and plant trees but get us no nearer to understanding what the really effective solutions are and, even more importantly, how we might get there from where we are today. This is a gap that I haven’t seen any fiction (other than <em>Ministry for the Future</em>) fulfil.</p>
1395
1396
1397
1398<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Steve Willis, a climate engineer and author (<a href="https://habitatpress.com/fairhaven/"><em>Fairhaven</em></a>, <a href="https://habitatpress.com/defying-futility/"><em>Defying Futility</em></a>) has allowed me to share his diagram of films, books etc., which plots dystopian/utopian visions of the future against plausibility. It’s clear that there’s little that is both positive and plausible.&nbsp;</p>

1406<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Habitat Press has published several books that write into this space. Many emerged from the <a href="https://www.greenstories.org.uk/">Green Stories project</a> which I founded with the goal of embedding climate solutions into mainstream fiction. It has run 21 competitions since 2018, resulting in numerous <a href="https://habitatpress.com/">publications</a>. One of these is the anthology of 24 stories: <a href="https://habitatpress.com/no-more-fairy-tales/">No More Fairy Tales: Stories to Save Our Planet</a>, where we teamed experienced writers with climate experts to come up with stories that had solutions at their heart.&nbsp;</p>

1413
1414<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Stories range from technical solutions relating to carbon dioxide removal projects to more systemic aspects such as switching from GDP to a well-being index, sharing economy, personal carbon allowances, giving citizen assemblies legislative power – all of which would allow for a more sustainable long-term mindset conducive to directing investment towards sustainable technologies, practices, and decisions.&nbsp;</p>
1415
1416
1417
1418<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This anthology uses fiction as a testing ground to explore the more radical transformative ideas necessary for a truly sustainable society: ideas that are hard for politicians to talk about for fear of misunderstanding as they can’t easily fit into a soundbite. For example, an essential step is to upgrade our democracy to a form that allows us to think beyond short-term electoral cycles so that we can make more sustainable decisions. Citizens’ Assemblies are a positive step here.&nbsp;</p>
1419
1420
1421
1422<p class="wp-block-paragraph">One story from this anthology was adapted as a play called ‘<a href="https://www.greenstories.org.uk/theatre-in-education/"><em>Murder in the Citizens’ Jury.’</em></a> It’s a fun whodunit, set in a citizens’ assembly, where eight participants meet to deliberate upon climate solutions—and then there’s a murder!&nbsp;</p>

1432
1433
1434<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The play also has an interactive element. A voting app and pullout voting and comment sheet in the programmes allows the audience to share their views on their favourite policies, so they feel like they are part of the citizen’s jury themselves. You can see a brief video of the first production by a local amateur theatre group <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fosCvlJvY4o">here</a>. The play is available to purchase from LazyBee, but if you approach me directly, I’m happy to allow amateur and student theatre groups to stage it royalty free.&nbsp;</p>
1435
1436
1437
1438<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The play is also available as a novella and audio book, <a href="https://habitatpress.com/product/the-assassin/">‘The Assassin’</a> of 16,000 words:</p>
1439
1440
1441
1442<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><em>Eight people in a citizen’s jury, discussing the most important challenge in the history of humanity – how to save ourselves from the looming climate crisis. Exciting new solutions are proposed, each with their own champions and detractors. What they decide will affect us all. But they all have their own issues to deal with, and one of them has a hidden agenda. Who is the assassin and who are they there to kill?</em></p>
1443
1444
1445
1446<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Such storytelling is a great way to showcase new ideas. Usually in business or government, one would use a stakeholder analysis to see who is benefitted/harmed by any policy and how. These can be dry, and it’s hard to engage with the impacts emotionally as the groups affected seem distant. This story allows stakeholders to become characters and as such we identify with them and their needs more easily. We can then view any climate policy from the perspective of a variety of people, all of whom have a unique relationship to the proposal.</p>
1447
1448
1449
1450<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><em>The Assassin</em> also acts as a story within a story in a full-length novel <a href="https://www.dabaden.com/the-philosopher-and-the-assassin/"><em>The Philosopher and the Assassin</em></a>. It’s rather different – think campus novel meets moral philosophy meets whodunnit.&nbsp;</p>
1451
1452
1453
1454<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><em>There’s no more important job than educator, and no subject as necessary as moral philosophy. The trick is getting the students to turn up. So, when the Dean proposes the controversial concept of education entertainment, Professor Iris Tate goes all in with a moral philosophy course based on a whodunnit that all assume is hypothetical – a murder in a citizens’ assembly on climate. A variety of characters provide an entertaining source of ethical dilemmas, but what the students don’t know is that the ultimate dilemma is very real, and their conclusions will have far-reaching consequences.</em></p>

1474<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><em>Visco</em> won the 2020 Green Stories novel competition. The story imagines a giant music festival which allows free access to those who need care and their carers too. What emerges is a care-based mini-society. Those who attend love it so much, no one wants to go home when the music stops. So they don’t! This novel adopts the ‘protopian’ approach of imagining a quite plausible scenario whereby a mini community develops in stages. The characters face and overcome various challenges. David Fell brings to this novel all the knowledge he has gained in his years working as a sustainability consultant, using the novel to showcase alternative approaches such as the sharing economy and how a society based on care might work in practice.&nbsp;</p>

1482<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Fiction, and science fiction in particular, is a great way to reach audiences beyond the environmental echo chamber, but to finish, I’ll talk about my next book, which is non-fiction but with a twist! It’s tentatively called <a href="https://www.dabaden.com/a-20-piece-jigsaw-to-save-the-world/">A Jigsaw to Save the World</a>. The twist – you guessed it &#8211; is that I plan to make it available also as a jigsaw.&nbsp;</p>
1483
1484
1485
1486<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I like the idea of a jigsaw as on the front cover is a picture which you are trying to get to. I read many books that do an excellent job of pinpointing the many problems society faces, and it’s usually not until the final chapter that any attempt is made at suggesting possible solutions. The news and pundits far and wide are keen to point out the problems we face. But it’s rare we take time to imagine what it might all look like if we did things better.&nbsp;</p>
1487
1488
1489
1490<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Rob Hopkins, in his book <em>From What Is to What If,</em> believes that when we take the time to immerse ourselves fully in imagining what kind of future we’d like to see, this creates a longing for it to happen. This in turn can galvanise action to make that dream come true. In his podcast <em>From What Is to What Next,</em> he asked guests to step into a virtual time machine, and to imagine themselves to be several years into the future and that we’ve done everything right and turned our society round. He then asked them to visualise what they see and hear around them. It’s a surprisingly powerful exercise when you do it yourself. Rob is right; it creates a yearning in the heart, a longing that almost makes you cry.&nbsp;</p>
1491
1492
1493
1494<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I do a lot of talks and workshops and often use this exercise myself. It’s remarkable that, in my experience, whatever the audience, the society people hunger for is always the same. First is always more nature. A close second is a sense of community, after that it’s more varied, but local food is often part of the picture, being outdoors more, less traffic. Public transport that is cheap, convenient and goes where you want, whenever you want. A more equal society, clean air and water. Access to health care and to feel hope for the future, or our children’s future. This is the picture on the front of the jigsaw. In every chapter, I will remind the reader of the society we are aiming towards.</p>
1495
1496
1497
1498<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Another reason I like the jigsaw metaphor is that we can see what pieces we may be part of in our own lives. It’s not just about building castles in the air for fun. The stakes are too high for that. We must work out how we get to our desired society. No one person or element can do it by themselves. We need every part of society to be working together to create this new picture. Whether we be in education, business, politics, members of our community, artists, journalists, or just as employees or voters with a voice, you can see where you fit in. At the end of every chapter, if you like what it’s proposing, I will suggest how you can make a difference.</p>
1499
1500
1501
1502<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I have an idea of the many pieces that will make up the jigsaw, and am working on the corners. The criteria for a policy to be a corner piece is that without that, all the other wonderful ideas or policies would not be as effective. Contenders for the corner pieces include citizens assemblies as our current democracy is constitutionally incapable of prioritising existential threats such as climate change over short
1502-term issues. Another might be personal carbon allowances/tradeable energy quotas – also known as personal carbon trading. This would transform the decisions that are made by consumers and by businesses by incentivising us to choose low-carbon alternatives. Business purpose justifies a corner but it’s tricky. The current legal form of corporations makes it impossible for even well-meaning CEOs to prioritise societal welfare when it conflicts with profit maximisation for shareholders. What if all businesses were Benefit Corporations/social enterprises where their aim was sufficient profit to supply necessary goods and services rather than profit maximisation? What would happen to markets and pensions? It’s easy to imagine distant futures but the process of getting there without triggering collapse is harder. Yet the alternative could be human extinction. I’m running events to get people together to puzzle out these sticky problems.

1549<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Jean-Paul L. Garnier: One theme of <em>The Iron Garden Sutra </em>concerns failed generation ships and the existential troubles they face during their journeys. I have read several books recently with similar takes on generation ships. Do you feel that this kind of story reflects a growing tension between generations in the real world and youth feeling that they have been dealt a bad hand by previous generations?</strong></p>
1550
1551
1552
1553<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>A.D. Sui</strong>: Generation ships are a long-standing tradition in sci-fi. What’s not alluring about packing up ourselves into a tin can and running off into the universe in search of greener pastures? But in my opinion, it’s also a very naïve take. Space is hostile. Space is <em>hard. </em>But there is a romanticism in cutting and running. Staying is, arguably, far more difficult. </p>
1554
1555
1556
1557<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I think every generation feels that pull of running away from their reality. Every generation can say that they have been dealt a bad hand. Millennials are economically disadvantaged because of policies enacted by Gen X and Boomers (and yes, have lived through three recessions now, but who’s counting?). Gen Xers felt they’ve been invisible all their lives. Boomers, I’m sure, felt disadvantaged in some way as well. Hard to imagine now, but one might. The generation before probably felt that they were unfairly thrust into a war that was only possible because of what the previous generation had done. And this is just the North American perspective. There are many more global conflicts, recessions, and other strains on each generation. We all want to run away, thinking that it will be better. To where? No one knows for sure, but somewhere that isn’t here. </p>
1558
1559
1560
1561<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Part of <em>The Iron Garden Sutra</em>’s theme is deciding when to stand your ground and fight for the things we believe in. Even if we are one person. Even if the outcome doesn’t look hopeful. Millennials are of the age when our financial decisions and our voting have the most impact. Some of us are even in positions of influence. Some are making decisions on scales that will impact the next generation (hi, Gen Z, and sorry). We can continue to bemoan the hand we’ve been dealt, or we can also work towards leaving things better for those who are coming after us. I, personally, am a huge fan of complaining <em>while </em>doing the thing. </p>
1562
1563
1564
1565<p class="wp-block-paragraph">It’s going to suck and it’s going to be a lot of work, sure, but we <em>can </em>leave a better world for those after us.</p>
1566
1567
1568
1569<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>You’ve also created a religion in this novel, The Starlit. What did the process of creating a theology look like for you, and please tell us about the introduction of cosmology into the religion of peoples who have colonized the stars?</strong></p>
1570
1571
1572
1573<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The Starlit is loosely based on Zen Buddhism. I have a very strong preference for non-monotheistic religions and like pondering where they can end up in thousands of years. What is the natural progression of something like Zen if it was supported into the future? What would its practitioners decide to keep and what would they discard? Because religion <em>does</em> change! Doctrine <em>does</em> change! It changes very slowly since religious institutions are massive and can’t afford to throw their entire weight around every other week, but it does change. </p>
1574
1575
1576
1577<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I think the introduction of cosmology is the natural transition, given how we 
1577commonly incorporate elements from our immediate environments into religious texts. Parting the Red Sea, trudging through deserts, and all that. If people are traversing between stars frequently, then star-like language would begin bleeding into texts. </p>
