- Jake von Slatt has yet another interview out! Someone should anoint him as the official spokesperson of steampunk.
- A brand new site from Myke Amend is very steampunk and also all about Lovecraft. Go now and join the fun that's just starting.
- Another new steampunk community (they're springing up everywhere these days) is steampunk style.
- Brush up on your Victorian manners with an interactive game. Later we will feature a punk manners game in which you can swear freely, throw things, and start a rebellion.
- This "telepresence frame" just cries out for some steampunk ornamentation, doesn't it?
Lots of happenings on the steampunk front of late: the craze has made it to NPR
, a new Livejournal community dedicated to finding and/or making neovictorian clothes
has sprung up, and the Earthenwood Bead Studio is celebrating a "week of steam."
Huzzah!
Paleofuture shows us a vision of how people in 1939 thought the men of the 21st century would dress
. I rather like the Ottoman influence.
The LEGO steampunk contest may be over, but that doesn't mean the creations have stopped - for example, Admiral Merryweather's Amazing Flying Machine
is ready for takeoff (and probable imminent disaster)!
Scientists have created a device
which fits on your knee and uses your own kinetic energy to charge
items like cell phones. I'm thinking these would look quite dashing
with some brass and gear emphasis.
