When I first went hunting for goggles, I quickly found the Atomefabrik site (warning – flashing site, see below) for cyberpunk styled goggles – predominantly aluminium with spikes or symbols on them.  In short, they weren’t particularly Steampunk (although they did look very high quality).
However, over at the forum in the Definitive Goggle Thread, poster [...]

Mr Chen, you wrote to point out that someone had made things far better than yours – well, I found quite a lot I liked on your site too!  Above, for example, is a very nicely made (and accessorised) jetpack inspired by both Rocketeer and Steamboy.  I also really adore your Vacuous Squids and also [...]

I was quite taken with the above image, sent to me by Mr Pinderschloss, of an old Victorian styled mansion now quite underwater with rays in the garden and old submarines haunting past the upper windows.  One of a multitude of impressive pieces (though there are few quite as Steampunk themed) images from NeoSurrealismArt.com by [...]

Three cheers for the Steampunk Magazine!  The new issue appears to be available from their site, and it’s subtitled “The Journal of Misapplied Technology” – which really is a marvelous name.  I’ve had a read (of the articles, I’ve left the works of fiction for later) and there’s some wonderful stuff – from an interview [...]

Both Mr Orlando and Mr Estee wrote to us know about the Steampunk Treehouse fundraising event on the 9th of June in  West Oakland, California.  The Steampunk Treehouse is a project to build a mechanical, and steam-filled faux-tree for Burning Man and probably other events too.  It will be both a contemplative place, a piece [...]

Mr M. Christian spotted a lovely little Steampunk vinyl biped vehicle and rebellious pilot over at the ‘i like toys‘ site.  Called the P-77 and done in a bronze effect, it’s by PhuEk! and I’m rather taken with its diminutive (6″/15cm) charm.  I could certainly see several of these stomping across a battleground, staggering most [...]

So, I’m *ahem* only 53 years late in watching this, one of the most iconic of Steampunk movies, though the majority of those years I hope I’d be forgiven for. But yes – I’ve finally watched the Disney movie, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. (Amazon UK/US).  It was fantastic, even after over half a [...]

You may recall the downright lovely crystal adorned hollowed lightbulb from TeamDroid, well the above is a video of a creation inspired by that, called the Glow Crystal Lamp.  A hollowed lightbulb with a crystal, two LEDs, and some UV reactive solution (as well as some cunning microcontroller programming) resulted in a curiously retro light [...]

We posted the previous trailer, but this one has a bit more content to it – and any day with an airship is a good day, in my opinion.   The film (of the book) The Golden Compass, is set to be released almost worldwide between the 5th and 7th of December, and I must [...]

Turning a typewriter into a keyboard has been done several times and it always impresses me terribly.  But turning a typewriter into a whole PC?  That’s even more impressive, surely.  Above is the mini-ITX modded Underwood No.5 typewriter mod, sent in by Ms. Brumfield of The Steampunk Home.  The mini-ITX is a very specificially tiny [...]
