Some cool genres and aesthetics include:

If you are unsure if a piece of media is on theme for this community, you can make a post asking if it fits. Discussion posts are encouraged, and particularly interesting topics will get pinned periodically.

No links to a store page or advertising. Links to bandcamps, soundclouds, playlists, etc are fine.

Left to right:

  • Contemporary Palestinian vase from Ramallah

  • 1960s East German vase

  • wooden Soviet vase, 1950s-70s maybe

  • 1910s Austro-Hungarian art nouveau vase

  • 1970 Soviet vase in honour of Lenin's 100th birthday

Only the Lenin one cost more than $30. I'm aiming for antique pieces from countries that have been significant to the left or modernist movements.

That's cool as hell. You should get one of those tiny kilns they sell online and you can make your own using century old inspiration. I'd buy one. chomsky-yes-honey

Unfortunately ceramics is one medium I've never been good with. My thing will be floral stained glass once I clear off enough workshop space for proper windows.
