Solarpunk Writing Prompts #9

Here you can listen to original podcast

Here is the source of the podcast's transcript you can read below

Solarpunk Prompts - The Archivists

Hello world. I'm Tomasino.

This is Solarpunk Prompts, a series for writers where we discuss Solarpunk, a movement that imagines a world where technology is used for the good of the planet.

In this series we spend each episode exploring a single Solarpunk story prompt adding some commentary, some inspirations, and some considerations.

Most importantly, we consider how that story might help us to better envision a sustainable civilization.

If this is your first time here, I'd recommend checking out our introduction episode first, where we talk about what Solarpunk is, why you should care, and why this series came into being.

Today's prompt is: "The Archivists"

A community of archivists, cartographers, or Wikipedians is fighting to save as much unwritten lore and knowledge as they can, before the old generation passes away. They're not hired by any organization or university, but connected by their love for the folk tales and belief that the natural medicine might be worth researching today.

Today's prompt is concerned with the loss of local and indigenous knowledge, a form of cultural memory. When most people think of archival work the mind goes to literature or archaeology or in more modern times we talk about archiving internet content before it's lost to the ravages of time. But this type of cultural loss can happen incredibly quickly, and be devastating to communities.

First of all, UNESCO defines local and indigenous knowledge to be

"... the understandings, skills and philosophies developed by societies with long histories of interaction with their natural surroundings. For rural and indigenous peoples, local knowledge informs decision-making about fundamental aspects of day-to-day life."

Decision making based on a long cultural interaction with the local environment, is like a magical potion of pure bottled Solarpunk. Yet this is rarely the recipe we think of when considering the future.

Chi Luu writes in JSTOR's Daily:

Is there really only one way to build a modern society, one based on Western ideology, with progress through constant growth and consumption? Is there only one kind of science we can use to truly understand the world? There’s hardly an indigenous culture surviving that does not struggle to preserve their traditional language and knowledge against the overwhelming homogenizing influences of Western colonialism. When knowledge does not take the scientific forms we've come to expect from academic research, it’s rejected, but that’s due to an unthinking bias about what value traditional knowledge has to offer. If it isn't in the form of a scientific report or paper, but is delivered in the form of a story, it’s regarded as unscientific and anecdotal folklore, no matter what new information is being conveyed.

In our story we have a community of people trying to hold on to that knowledge. But knowing about these inherent biases from western colonial influence, we could imagine the opposition they might face. Is this the best use of the community resources? Shouldn't we be focused on the scientific studies? Phillip over there has found old manuals for tractor repair. Put your effort into decoding those.

One can imagine a high-stakes conflict between people who want to archive every scrap of dying knowledge vs people who want to use the libraries to educate and help stop further disasters. In the true Solarpunk way of internal conflict, both parties are working toward the same positive ends for the community, but have very different ideas of how it should be done.

Whether our archivists are facing internal conflict or not, there's also the question of how the work is being done. Is there collaboration? Is there technology being put to the purpose for the benefit of the community?

There are very few pieces of fiction showcasing Wikipedia, or similar efforts. There are even fewer that showcase the drama that can unfold in these spaces where everyone is trying to write down knowledge without bias. When everyone has the ability to edit everyone else's work, and there is no one to step in and claim authority, arguments get heated.

And perhaps people viciously typing at one another isn't be greatest visual storytelling, but that type of engagement can come to life in many forms with a bit of imagination. Perhaps the Wikipedia of the future involves shared physical spaces!

Our archivists are impassioned individuals doing this from love, not from assignment. They may take challenges to their work personally.

I should mention one fascinating thing about Wikipedia here. It is a piece of cultural infrastructure and it's sexy as hell. I'm referring, of course, to our second guide to Solarpunk. What's utterly fascinating to me is that Wikipedia, as an idea, is completely incompatible with cyberpunk. There is no place in that vision of technological oppression for a community contributed repository of knowledge simply for the betterment of humanity. Wikipedia is 100% Solarpunk.

Writing ideas for project motivation

But lets get back to our prompt again.

What are some ways we can frame the prompt which would give us a unique perspective on the effort?

If the effort to archive this information isn't creating the conflict itself, perhaps it comes from outside.

If someone from a very different culture or community saw or heard the stories of these people it might be their misunderstanding. When they hear a fable, or a micro-story setting designed to educate by allegory, the listener may hear literal things which offend, confuse, or threaten. How would they handle that interpretation? How would the community try to help settle the issue?

Or perhaps conflict is more than is needed for this story. Maybe it's a personal journey of a child who doesn't understand the value that the old ones carry. It's a lesson in a lesson, then, when the children are given a project to write their family history. Perhaps we can mash up some of these ideas, too. What if the children aren't to create an essay, but to enter their family history into a community wiki.

Is it the teacher's doing? Or do we have another opportunity to show off the amazing power of librarians? This community may teach the children to research and archive, to do science, to investigate, and to share that information with everyone. Their greatest act of service to one another may be open source knowledge.

Open source knowledge is absolutely a gift, and one of the best possible things we can give each other today. Just like we must unlearn the false devaluing of cultural knowledge, we must also release the idea of science as belonging to the scientist.

Citizen science, citizen research, provides invaluable data to the world.

Take the tsunami at Fukushima and the nuclear disaster which followed. There was little to no data on the radiation levels in local areas, only en mass across the whole region. That lack of knowledge limited movement and insight in the region. Public fear led to massive requests and supply issues for Geiger counters. An industry went from selling five machines a month to requests for a thousand per day.

Then a nonprofit stepped in, Safecast, who were testing their new handheld. A compact plastic box housed an Arduino board, GPS, data logger, and tiny Geiger. The device's job was simple: replace the need for manual data logging, replace the need for data aggregation, cleanup, assembly, and so on. Just record all the data in real time and report it back home immediately, every five seconds.

https://www.fastcompany.com/3030731/why-collecting-data-in-conflict-zones-is-invaluable-and-nearly-impossible

In a month they put together 18 million data points worldwide, not just in Japan. That data revealed that evacuation routes in the Fukushima area were wrong and needed to be adjusted.

And what of that data? Was it horded as proprietary company information to be licensed for a fee? No. It's completely open to all and free. Oh, and so is the hardware. The specs are free and components are off-the-shelf. Anyone can build one and start collecting data, which also goes right into that open data set.

Citizen science is powerful stuff, whether it's tracking radiation, or saving a cultural language.

The Tlingit people of Southeastern Alaska and Western Canada faced a problem. In 2007 research reported that there were fewer than 500 speakers of the language left in the world, and many of them were of advanced age. In 2014 there were only two speakers in all of Canada. The warning bells were sounded when the total number dropped quickly to 200.

The Sealaska Heritage institute knew they wanted to do something to stem the tide and save the language and culture it represented.

They spent years and years collecting audio, often by literally recording conversations with elders. Then came painstaking efforts to edit, program, and construct something tangible.

Finally in 2016 they released two free apps to learn the language. With those apps and the materials collected, all freely available, language courses have begun as well.

With any luck, those citizen scientists will save their language.

And, as difficult as it is to think about, if they failed in their primary mission, their recordings may be all that's left of the Tlingit tongue. The spoken language of an entire tribe, gone. Reduced to a few mp3s on a hard drive.

That. That feeling right there. That is why your archivists are doing their work. Nobody had to hire them for it.

Now the hard part is for you, to put that feeling into words.

Until next time, I'm Tomasino. I hope you'll join me for the next Solarpunk Prompt.

If you want to be entertained, look up how to tell natural diamonds from lab grown ones, it's funny as shit seeing marketing folks try to pretend that what they're saying isn't that they're practically the same except that one is overpriced because people see it as an investment.

Because laboratory-grown diamonds are essentially chemically and optically the same as their natural counterparts, traditional gemological observations and old-style “diamond detectors” are not able to tell them apart. Identification at a professional gemological laboratory or using sophisticated devices developed by GIA and other organizations are the only reliable methods to separate them from natural diamonds.

...

Research is constantly being conducted by the GIA and new methods to tell the difference are emerging daily. To identify lab created diamonds, GIA has developed a screening device called GIA iD100. This $5,500 device combines advanced spectroscopic technology with GIA’s 60 years of diamond identification research to distinguish natural diamonds from lab grown (HPHT and CVD) diamonds and diamond simulants.

All that effort, for what?

Real diamonds connect us to mother earth because of its rarity and geological origin. Think of it like this, would you rather eat GMO or organic foods? The answer is easy, but the price difference is obviously a factor.

Hilarious example because non-GMO and organic food is also overpriced and usually not worth it, regular foods are going to nourish you just fine, even if they come from a can.

Diamonds are valuable because they’re rare, and the way they’re formed means that there’s a finite amount of them.

Crypto bro logic.

The main way to tell the difference between a lab- created diamond and a real diamond is by looking at the price tag.

Lab created diamonds are grown in a controlled environment, so they have fewer impurities than natural diamonds. This means that they are typically less expensive than natural diamonds.

They are more "pure" therefore they're less expensive?? Written like it's meant to make sense, no explanation needed.

This ridiculous article 👆

Porsche 911 Hybrid: Existential Threat Alert!

Air-cooled Porsche purists look away now. The 911 Hybrid is officially about to become A Thing. Spotted during track testing and later confirmed by Porsche CEO Oliver Blume, the hybrid is the first time anything other than a conventional petrol engine has powered this motoring icon.

The 1965 Newport Folk Festival won’t be the first thing that springs to mind when considering this seismic shift in Porsche 911 thinking but it’s a better parallel than you might think. Because it was here, nearly 60 years ago, that Bob Dylan shocked music fans by (gasp) playing an electric guitar rather than the traditional acoustic number that had made his name. The shockwaves still resonate today.

So, consider the potential ramifications for this (probably inevitable) move by the Stuttgart supercar manufacturer. Because according to recent press – and their own Annual Sustainability Report –Porsche’s own Dylan moment will be to add a third element to the water-cooled vs air-cooled debate that keeps the chat rooms buzzing.

According to the motoring press, it’s part of a wider ‘facelift’ programme for the whole 992 incarnation of the 911 range. Other newsworthy additions to the stable include a 911 Cabriolet, a 911 Turbo S, an updated 911 GT3 and a reimagined GT Touring saloon. But it’s the hybrid that’ll grab the headlines, for sure. So, what’s it like?

First things first.

The structure mirrors the current Turbo S model, suggesting a performance hybrid in the same vein as the Cayenne and Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid models: superficially true to the originals, but with a big secret tucked away.

As we’re some months away from a showroom near you, full details are still hard to come by. But the Internet seems to agree that the power will come from a 3.8-litre twin-turbo flat-six

allied with the 136hp electric motor found in other hybrid Porsches to generate up to 800hp worth of oomph.

Fully charged.

While the batteries will obviously add to the payload it’s expected to match and potentially beat the 2.7 seconds it takes the 911 Turbo S to get from 0-60.

And while there is bound to be some mutterings among the purists – remember, Dylan was booed at Newport – Porsche are not for changing and have faith in the new model.

“The high-performance hybrid seamlessly continues innovative development of the 911 drive,” Frank Moser, who oversees the 911 and 718 lines, said in a statement. “This benefits the driver whenever they’re accelerating. We therefore have a technology that will prepare us for future emission standards.”

Another motoring title speculates that the modified twin-turbocharged 3.0-litre flat-six and a 400-volt hybrid system powering the electrified 911 will feature an integrated starter-generator developed in conjunction with EV maker Rimac, in whom Porsche owns a significant stake.

Full wheel drive.

Unlike other hybrid or fully electric Porsches, the electric motor in this setup will be mounted on the front rather than the rear axle, giving the car all four wheels to distribute those extra 349 kilowatts.

The reimagined 911 is just one of four major launches with a Taycan Turbo GT, a new Panamera, and the all-electric Macan expected before year’s end. So, is it any good? The answer, my friend, is blowin’ in the wind, as a certain someone might say.

She-Ra for the ask meme! (Maybe a bad time with the final season so close, you can save this until after if you like.)

(Based on this meme.)

Well, did I save this for later or what?

The first character I first fell in love with: Entrapta. Aside from her colour scheme—I do love a good purple girl, to say the least—I adore her for her enthusiastic, inquisitive, compassionate, and rather eccentric personality. Not to mention her design is an absolute joy to watch in action; from the goggles to the prehensile hair, is creative and adorable. She steals every scene she’s in with her loveably manic energy. The fact that she’s a scientist, who specializes in advanced technology no less, makes her an important character in a magic-driven fantasy setting—her design helps her stand out among the more traditional looking princesses, too! The fact that she’s some of the most effectively authentic examples of autistic representation in children’s fiction only enhances her likeability, in addition to the most interesting and sympathetic examples of morally grey characters that I’ve seen. Her wonderful chemistry with the rest of the Horde adds both to her charm, and really helped lighten things up on the villain’s side for the first 2-3 seasons, and her relationship with Hordak… Well, I’ll get to that shortly! 😉

The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: Madame Razz. I figured Razz was going to be a fun mentor character, but I could have never suspected she’d be the best mentor I and Adora could ask for! I’m not familiar with her original counterpart, but whatever they had to work with, I applaud the crew for taking the silliest looking character in the original line-up and turning her into this charming little old lady whose equal parts Yoda and Ghibli grandma. (Or at least that’s how I describe her.) Her design gets special mention, too, for just how dang cute she is! The big glasses, the raggedy dress, big fluffy hair with moths flying around, and her witch broom all come together so well. Out of all Adora’s mentors, she’s the best— having no ulterior motives, agendas, or any manipulative or toxic behaviour laced into her teaching style, offers the best life advice she can to someone who clearly needs it out of kindness. And because she bears a certain resemblance to someone she once knew in a similar position.

The character everyone else loves that I don’t: Catra. Shocking right? Look, I know that she had an awful time growing up in the Fright Zone and by the end of the show she became more well-rounded and likeable. Any grief I have with her is pretty much over done with. Problem is though… it is pretty hard to forget everything she did. Now, I know it’s all in the past and a lot of people haven’t forgotten what she did either, and that some of it has to do with the ugliness of the Catradora vs. Entrapdak dynamic discourse and I don’t want to go into that. I really don’t. But put as simply as possible, she was a toxic friend, especially in regards to Adora (the Season 1 and 2/3 finales in particular) and Entrapta (who she betrayed, left to die after lying about her to her lover/best friend, and the offering the bare minimum of an apology), and escalated a war just to get back at Adora. After she tried to destroy REALITY to get back at her. I’m glad she changed but it still feels like too little too late.

The character I love that everyone else hates: Swift Wind. Sure, he’s a talking horse with a design that can wander a good ways into the uncanny valley, and who tries too hard too hard to be funny, but in spite of that I think he’s got a good heart behind that strange face of his. He does his best to be a good friend to Adora, supporting her both as herself and when she’s She-Ra, as well as doing his best to support Adora’s other friends as well (see “Boy’s Night Out”). Chiefly by trying to make light of Adora’s duties as She-Ra by trying help her find the fun and excitement in it. Of course, he doesn’t just try to keep the energy up, he shows genuine concern for Adora and all her friends, not hesitating to rush to their protection or point out when a situation seems especially dire. (see “Beast Island” and “Failsafe”). But I think my favourite example is from “Hero” where he casually reveals that he regularly checks in on Madame Razz because, as he says, “You gotta check up on old ladies alone in the woods.” What a horse!

The character I used to love but don’t any longer: Glimmer. I used to love her personality and her design. A peppy rebel who lived for adventure and a good friend to Adora and Bow. Even if she had her flaws like her impulsiveness and her stubbornness, she was still pretty likeable. But then she called her mom a coward for acting as a strategist and looking after Bright Moon, which ended up convincing her to sacrifice herself to close the rift at the end of S3. Alright, fair enough, some things can’t be avoided. Then she took over as queen, and I can understand there was A LOT of factors that were in play—namely grief and Double Trouble deliberately playing on her strained friendship with Adora and Bow as part of one of Catra’s plots—but boy howdy, did she start showing a pretty unsavory side what with her increasingly ruthless demeanor, trusting Adora’s abuser (hi Shadow Weaver, be with you in minute) over her, choosing to leave Entrapta in very real peril on Beast Island, and willingly using a weapon she knew could destroy all of Etheria to win a war. Perhaps I wouldn’t have minded as much if season 5 didn’t rush through her apologies and redemption so quickly, but the fact remains that Glimmer’s character took an awfully dark turn that’s not quite going to be so easily forgotten.

The character I would totally smooch: In a dark future where Entrapta never found love with Hordak, for one terrible reason or another, I would totally give her a smooch. I’ve said it before and say it again: Mad scientist princess is best princess! The character I’d want to be like: Bow. In some capacity I’m already like him, namely being super emotional and doing his damnedest to be a good friend even when things are tough, as well as being the voice of reason and a tinkerer (what? Tinkering with artsy stuff counts!). But I’d like to follow his example of being more level-headed, softer, optimistic, but also more assertive as opposed to my impulsive, harsher, cynical, and reserved current self.

The character I’d slap: Shadow Weaver. Need I explain? No, and anyway I can’t slap her anyways because she pulled the most manipulative heroic sacrifice I’ve ever seen. Dammit it, Shadow Weaver! (I really wanted to say Horde Prime but I feel like he wasn’t developed quite enough to be as hateable as he could be. Not to say that he isn’t an absolute piece of trash who deserved what he had coming already, but we didn’t get to spend three whole seasons getting to know the depths of his manipulative depravity while simultaneously weaseling his way into a twisted version of a redemption arc, unlike someone else I just talked about.)

A pairing that I love: Entrapdak. In case, it wasn’t already obvious. To summarize, in spite of all the drama that surrounds them and their actions, they honestly have the sweetest, most affectionate, and quite possibly the most healthy and engaging pair of the entire show (next to Spinnerella and Netossa, of course). Shoot, if it weren’t for these two and my hopes to see them reunite again, I would have left the fandom entirely at this point! (No seriously, I’m getting tired, folks.)

A pairing that I despise: Hordak X Horde Prime, but I think that’s the point, since most people use it to explore toxic relationships from a distance. Anyways, I really do not want to talk about abusive alien selfcest.

(Discerning Dubious Heathen Resources: A Guide by Skaldish)

Not all Heathens are academics, but we all want to develop a fulfilling practice. For most, that means learning from books, articles, and groups. But how can we be sure a resource is credible? And how can we separate the useful from the dubious?

Fortunately, discernment is pretty easy once you know what to look for. Here are some signs that your Heathen resource may be dubious:

It Lacks Source Transparency

Some Heathen resources will dive into “How to be a Heathen” without mentioning where their information comes from, which can dupe you into believing it’s something it’s not. A transparent resource will acknowledge its information’s origins, whether it’s from a person’s personal practice, a living folk tradition, reconstructed from old texts, etc. This can be done through citations or disclaimers.

Should you throw out resources that aren’t open about their origins? Not necessarily. But it does means you can’t fully trust what that resource is leading you to believe.

It Frames Heathenry as a High-Demand Religion

@north-of-annwn introduced me to the concept of a High-Demand Religion. To quote:

A religion can be considered “high demand” if it involves any or all of the following:

Intense demands of time and resources

Emphasis on leadership

Orthodox belief

Scriptural inerrancy or literalism

Strict behavioral codes including rules of diet, dress, tithing, education, sexual practices, media and technology use, language, social involvement, and marriage.

(Myers, Summer Anne, “Visualizing the Transition Out of High-Demand Religions” (2017). LMU/LLS Theses and Dissertations. 321)

Not all religions act like high-demand Christianity. Heathenry, with its origins in folkloric practice, isn’t inherently a High-Demand Religion and is not required to look like one.

It Conflates Healing from Christian Trauma as Heathen Practice

Trauma caused by Christianity is very real and deserves proper attention and space. However, it’s not a cultural staple of Heathenry, nor is it even an experience shared by all Heathens. A good resource will help you foster an identity wholly separate from Christianity, not in direct opposition to it.

It Suggests Heathenry has a Certain “Look”

I’ve rarely seen a resource state it’s the “one true way”, but some will definitely talk as though they define what all of Heathenry is, or at least their sect of it. In reality, Heathenry varies between groups and has pretty much always done so...and the values of one group do not define the values of all Heathenry. This is why pulling from multiple sources and authors builds a stronger foundation for your practice than using just one.

It Contains Morally Questionable Content

A part of me is baffled I’m even writing this, but you’d be surprised the kind of bullshit authors will parade around. Prime example: Galina Krasskova portrays Loki as a pedophile in one of her devotionals because she has UPG that his wife Sigyn is a child bride.

This goes for all paganism: Mystical experiences are not a “Get out of Jail Free” card for accountability. You’re allowed to hold authors accountable if their content is questionable.

It Overstates Academic and Historical Merit

The opposite of lacking source transparency is the idea that a valid Heathen practice is one built ONLY upon historical or “pre-Christian” evidence, applying even to UPGs. It makes academic prowess the proof of faith, rather than practice or even belief itself. It also discredits modern Heathen practices and lineaged Heathen practices that were passed down from historical ones.

Academia itself isn’t bad, and academic papers are some of the most reliable sources on Heathenry out there. But anyone treating academia as the source of legitimacy for a Heathen practice is operating off of a standard not required in Heathenry.

It Contains White Supremacist Dogwhistles and Virtues

We knew this one was coming. Let’s take a few examples for a speed run:

Emphasis on bloodlines/heritage/race

The Nine Noble Virtues

Claiming Heathenry is a closed religion

Implies a shared experience of whiteness

Emphasis on War Culture

Glorification of Ragnarok

Glorification of Valhalla

Obsession with Vikings

Idealization of Odin, demonization or pointed absence of Loki

Chosen vs. Unchosen, Us vs.Them narratives

Innangard and Utangard (requires context)

Odinism/Odinist

Tribalism/Tribalist

Folkish, Volkische, “the Folk”

“Metagenetics”, “Blood and Soil”, “Heritage not Hate”

Nordicism

Social issues are “politics” and “politics don’t belong in Heathenry”

The Black Sun

SS Symbol

The Triple Horn (logo of the Asatru Folk Assembly, a hate group.)

“Anti-Immigration”

Racialism

White supremacy is a real issue in Heathenry, and dogwhistles have become so subtle that many can be written off as harmless or unrelated to white supremacy...which is exactly the point.

Ask yourself this: Does the book, group, or resource state or imply that white people have lost their pre-Christian roots, and that they can reclaim them through the brotherhood of Heathenry? If so, then you have found the introductory narrative of white supremacy.*

Remember that a trustworthy resource on Heathenry will not prey on bitter feelings you may have coming into Heathenry. Instead it’ll give you the room and tools to build your practice regardless of where your come from or the religion you were previously in. Your inherent worth and wellbeing are important and should not be leveraged against you.

The front-line defense against white supremacist sources is Googling the author of your resource. A few popular and easily-found authors out there like Edred Thorrson/Stephen Flowers are active white supremacists, and even if a book of theirs doesn’t talk about race, their ideals bleed through their works.

*As a side note, many pagans turn to family origins to inform their path, including people with ancestry in Nordic countries. Just because someone comes to Heathenry this way doesn’t automatically make them a white supremacist or a sympathizer. The narrative only begins to darken when bloodlines are used to measure the legitimacy of someone’s Heathen practice.

That being said, this post is not suggesting you should point out the white supremacist red flags in other people when you see them. Rather, this post is meant to help you identify when the narrative tries to prey on YOU. Regular people aren’t equipped to reverse radicalization in other people, no matter what point it’s at, and trying to do so will do more harm than good. Please exercise good personal discernment in all situations.

hi! im having some trouble figuring out some things about my world. The main country of the story like a post calamity old west, filled with cowboy gangs that occupy turf. But there are also people in towns within the country that have nothing to do with the gangs. My issue is im having trouble figuring out how the two sides would interact, and how the people in the towns would avoid getting raided every day.

Tex: Ah. Well, cowboys... don't do the raiding thing, traditionally - it's actually a job as a cattle herder and sometimes horse wrangler that worked on a ranch. The original cowboys were vaqueros of the Iberian Peninsula. It's a very old cultural tradition, which is typified by doing cattle - and other animals as necessary - herding on horseback. Technically speaking, the Iberian roots refer to a dressage style of the region, known as doma vaquera (aka "Western dressage" or "cowherd style", DressageToday, which is different from the horsemanship style of doma clásica (aka haute école, Wikipedia in Spanish).

I find the phrase "post calamity old west" very interesting; what about the Old West drew you toward it for a post-calamity setting? It may not have looked like the US east of the Mississippi, but for the most part the frontier was highly oriented around entrepreneurialism, egalitarianism, and self-sufficiency - Manifest Destiny's impact on westward expansion is popularly said to have shaped the roots of American culture, distinct from European. Society in the frontier wasn't highly stratified like in the original colonies, but it was quick to develop in something that reflected the friction with the Native Americans, the aggressive politicking that was the developing legislative landscape, and the shift from financial modesty to the dream of wealth.

Cowboys were incredibly important to frontier culture, as cattleherding [and horse... everything ( 1 2 3 4 5 ) were a core component of the frontier economy. Settlers made up another core component, and between the two of them - under Manifest Destiny's set of goals - American law and government was further developed. The building of the railroads to connect east and west coasts had major help from cowboys and their ability to wrangle horses for use in railroad construction, something that helped put the US higher on the international stage in terms of their trading power. Being able to negotiate literally new trade routes, as well as govern them, is a potent draw for any society as it enables them to have a steady source of income to develop themselves further. Since cowboys were an integral part of this, the culture surrounding them was built up accordingly.

It's important to highlight that the Old West was planned, inasmuch as territorial expansion on other people's property can be. As the population of an area grew, and went through the formal procedures of becoming towns, cities, and states (there were some hiccups, as evidenced by the Kansas-Nebraska Act), the amount of law enforcers grew accordingly. In the beginning sheriffs and others were sparse compared to their big city relatives in the more developed regions of the US, and as such they were spread thin.

What was... maybe not unique to the era and region, but perhaps distinctive, is the fine line between "law-abiding" and "not law-abiding". Since the US was galloping toward expanding its territory and defending it (pun wholly intended), picking up the slack as a representative of the US government could be financially beneficial. Bounties could be put out on criminals - whose crimes were frequently theft of cattle and horses when not cash and other goods - and deals were frequently struck with not only cowboys but whichever criminal was currently in the good graces of the local sheriff/town as a whole.

Outlaws, also known as lawmen (sometimes law-abiding!), badmen, pistoleers, pistoleros, rustlers (a particular occupation), and gunslingers (the last one a post-era name suited for Hollywood), are the byproduct of westward expansion in the US. Like cowboys and law enforcement, they had a spot in their society as, literally, a criminal occupation that varied in how far from the law they operated (entrepreneurship, if technically of a different tone than homesteaders and other settlers). Because of the contemporary in situ development of law, criminals could be sheriffs and sheriffs could be criminals.

This lack of stratification that would typically define respectability is what made the American frontier the "Wild" West, not necessarily the lack of physical infrastructure. The US is big, and matching the technology of the East Coast and Europe took a lot of resources, both physical and financial, and many routes were taken to achieve the singular goal of fulfilling the US' vision of becoming a power player in the world stage.

Such an apparent lawlessness was dealt with by using a form of equality, something best said by the adage "if catapults are outlawed, then only outlaws shall have catapults". The multiple layers of politics - from Native Americans to war with other nations and neighbors to quite simply the wildlife - meant that firearms were a staple of settlers, ranchers, Pony Express riders, and stagecoach travelers that had to deal with "the wild" (something that notably wasn't allowed within town limits as a demarcation of civilization). If you want to talk about raiding, the Bleeding Kansas crisis is your best bet to see how the Old West handled such things.

Combining those two above aspects should give you greater perspective on social dynamics of law vs lawless, as well as how the social circles overlapped. The closest I could find to the modern gang war analogue would be range wars, with notable examples including the Johnson County War, Stuart's Stranglers, and Sheep Wars that fit the parameters of cowboys in territorial disputes during the Old West era and region.

I think you might be particularly interested in the Cochise County Cowboys, as a very early form of American crime syndicate during the time when "cowboy" and "rustler" were mostly interchangeable. They're a part of the family feuds in the United States, many of which occur during the time period and in the region of the Old West.

Below (Mod Miri Note: at the end of the post) is a list gives details of the minutiae I haven't covered, which round out the setting of the Old West, up to the completion of the First Transcontinental Railroad which effectively ended the era - but not quite to the American Civil War.

Feral: Everything Tex said. Also...

Something else to consider about the real Old West and the sociopolitical dynamics that came with it is that the Old West was happening during a time of class warfare. And I do mean warfare. An incredible amount of the land was not owned by the people living there. It was owned by the railroad companies, banks, and absentee speculators. Most farmers in the 19th century were tenant farmers, who could be evicted for crop failure - evictions to be carried by the local sheriff. Over a thousand people died constructing the transcontinental railroads, and running the railroads was also a very dangerous occupation. Strikes were happening a lot and the Pinkertons were known to actually battle striking workers. The point of this is to say that the common people might not have had as much of an issue with bandits who targeted banks or trains or fought with sheriffs and security agents. Jesse James was a folk hero who is given attributes of a Robin Hood figure, even though there's no evidence he gave away any of his loot - he did, however, steal from the rich and that might have been good enough for some.

Now you ask how the bandits (or cowboys - is that meant as a reference to the Gunfight at OK Corral? if so, it's a proper noun - Cowboys was the name of the specific gang) would interact with the townspeople. I see 2 general models of this.

Model 1: the towns are part of the territories which are "protected" by the gangs that control the territories. So, gangs wouldn't be attacking their own towns; they'd be attacking each others. And likely trading with their own.

Model 2: the towns are no-man's land on the border of territories and trade equally with the bandits (this model would probably require a very strong law enforcement presence). And trade is a really important thing to consider - you can't eat money. Whatever the bandits steal from banks, train cars, etc, they need to get food with it. And given the very real poverty in the Old West, stealing food outright off farms was a very good way to get a huge posse out for your blood.

If you're not already familiar with Westerns, try some out. Tombstone is a favorite of mine (though it is absolutely completely historically inaccurate). Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid is a classic. For a more "modern" option, Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy is a must-read. Even when they're inaccurate, they capture the feeling that draws people to the mythology of the Old West, even when reimagined as post-apocalyptic.

And speaking of the post-apocalyptic West, you're probably very familiar with the Joss Whedon show Firefly and Stephen King's Gunslinger, but if you haven't taken the time, really study them. Because the world building, especially in terms of the balance of chaos and order, are wonderful, and again, they capture that feeling of Westerns that keep people coming back. "Train Job," "Bushwacked," and "Heart of Gold" may be particularly helpful episodes for you.

The Difference Between Western Anime and Japanese Anime

Origin of anime

The origin of anime is in the united states of Japan. The word anime is pronounced as 'ah-knee-may.' It is really a short type of animation. Particularly in Japan, the word can be used to denote all kinds of animation irrespective of genre, style, etc. But outside of Japan, the word can be used to make reference to those animations that are a production of Japanese studios. For quite a long time, it had been a local product of Japan using its production, storytelling, themes, etc. But over the last four to five decades, anime has additionally collected a huge international fan base. They've been translated into different languages for international audiences. The folks of the West highly consume themand are passing on the legacy for their children now.

In the late 20th century, a certain art style was produced by Osamu Tezuka, which had spread fast into the domestic audience. The difference between animes from traditional comics and cartoons is what attracts a large audience. It reaches a large audience through broadcasting on television and the internet. Most animes are original work. However, they are also adaptations of Japanese manga or video games. There are always a selection of genres to cater to the taste of a large audience. The episodes often run for hundreds to thousands in number. The storylines are hardly boring and put forward a new perspective every time. They make everything look fresh, and the characterization feels new. Sometimes an anime that runs for a mere ten to twelve episodes leaves more impact on the audience than an anime running for decades after years. An anime with an extremely basic and simple artwork sometimes look more desirable to the audience than an anime with great visuals.

Japanese animes vs western animes

Anime has a varied approach to production that's adapted itself well with the wide variety of technologies. Japanese animes concentrate on cinematography, character development, usage of camera, etc., unlike the western animes that focus more on movement. The results on the camera are made utmost importance in Japanese version. One of the most commonly โดจิน used features of the characters of Japanese is large eyes that show several emotions. The Japanese industry has over 400 companies with the studios like Ghibli, Sunrise, and Toei animation occupying the frontline. A recently available survey has shown that Japanese animes constitute about 60% of all the animated group of the world. The art styles found in Japanese are diverse combined with the features.

One common mistake that folks commit is which they identify one bit of anime as a variety, while the truth is it is not a variety in itself. Anime is a questionnaire of art that contains several genres within it. Some individuals believe that the phrase anime has been taken from French, as an acute accent used over the 'anime.' Before the widespread usage of the word anime, another term called Japanimation was being used throughout the late 20th century, but soon it got replaced with the phrase anime. All anime has one thing in accordance: the audiences involve the characters on a very emotional level. Even the storylines are very epic and have a good impact on the audiences.
