Seapunk is a research-and-imagination movement and community interested in solarpunk imaginaries for Southeast Asia, inspired by the region’s historical open common sea, and the emergent thriving decentralized ‘punk’ worlds it fostered.

Seapunk is thrilled to introduce SOUTH BEAST ASIA, a fictional world haunted by AIs in all sorts of (mostly) friendly living embodied forms!
This release comprises thirteen videos that collectively depict a fictional world, supported by an introductory video trailer, expository essay, and dozens of imagined artifacts and concept imagery.
With the exception of the trailer and essay, all other exhibits were created during the five-day Khlongs & Subaks protocol design fiction workshop co-hosted by Seapunk Studios for a few dozen researchers in April 2025. Read the full curator’s introduction here, or check out southbeast.asia for more.
Seapunk is regrouping in Chiang Mai this July 12-20. We’re calling it Seapunk Midsummer Studio, or SMS.
Catch up, co-create Seapunk’s next chapters, and join some special events (sci-fi workshop, secret salon, and more).
Details and registration here.
