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.
Woh!! That is fabulous. If I had that much extra money, I would LOVE to get that for my hubby or one of my boys. What a conversation piece and worth using on rainy days to keep the kids busy!! ahahah!!
via Gizmodo, a $21,000 desk by Dale Mathis with gears that actually move. Really. Go watch the video.

Cool, but for what purpose? A desk featuring that much functional hardware better do something awfully cool to justify its existence.
oh sweet, I would never get anything done at that desk.
I'd prettymuch just hypnotise myself by making the gears turn.
This is really cool desk. Wish I could design things like this!
