>[!abstract] >Lunarpunk is a subgenre of [[Solarpunk|solarpunk]] with a darker aesthetic. It portrays the nightlife, spirituality, and more introspective side of solarpunk utopias (Wikipedia, 2025). >[!related] >- **North** (upstream): [[Solarpunk]] (as the broader speculative/ecological movement from which Lunarpunk distinguishes itself) >- **West** (similar): [[Cyberpunk]] (shares the countercultural, resistant ethos, but with a more techno-dystopian flavor) >- **East** (different): [[Technocratic utopianism]] (trust in centralized, highly visible, rationalist systems) >- **South** (downstream): [[Crypto-anarchism]] (privacy-first, decentralized, often "shadow” infrastructures that echo Lunarpunk themes)
