As of March 2025, our Seapunk quest marked its one-year anniversary (based, at least, on the seapunk.asia registration date — 14 March 2024~ 🥧).

As both the Seapunk community and movement grow, our vision is to begin to decouple the broader ‘seapunk’ movement (an open, lowercase cultural movement or aesthetic / genre like solarpunk, instead of a proprietary Brand™️) from our initial founding stewardship efforts — which we hope will eventually just become some among many.

Effective March 2025, all our core research, imagination, event curation, and other initiatives will be constellated under the label (or ‘metalabel’, to borrow a concept) of Seapunk Studios (SS).

SS is the hub organizer of Seapunk’s core 2025 activities and founding steward for the Seapunk community, newsletter, and other resources (including this website)!

Unless otherwise specified, SS is also the ‘we’ we write from on this site and other core ‘official’ Seapunk comms.

Terminology TLDR:

• seapunk = the generic lowercase research-and-imagination movement, genre, aesthetic, community, etc. (like solarpunk, cyberpunk, etc.)
• Seapunk Studios (SS) = the core organization / organizer of 2025 Seapunk activities and steward of the Seapunk community, newsletter, and other resources
