Two art-cycles. The one on th left was covered with music box mechanisms. I love how the one on the right looks like a Victrola.

I believe that Steampunk is more than just brass and watchparts. It's finding a way to combine the past and the future in an aesthetic pleasing yet still punkish way. It's living a life that looks old-fashioned, yet speaks to the future. It's taking the detritus of our modern technological society and remaking it into useful things. Join me as I search for items for my house that combine the scientific romanticism of the Victorians with our real present and imagined future.

I was there!!! It was awesome.
The Tesla coils were bad ass.
Also the woman making the bobbin lace was such a sweetheart!
I was there! It was amazing! Somehow I missed the art-cycles , but I've seen them before at Burning Flipside. I really wish the Neverwas would've been there.
I would love to know about building the Wooden Gear Clock.
