Fannish 50 #6: Steampunk



I like Steampunk. For the unfamiliar it's a phenomenon (literary genre, fashion style, DIY philosophy and aesthetic) which combines Victorian style with science fiction. Rooted in the works of H.G. Wells and Jules Verne.

When I got the prompt for Season of Kink 'mechanical/technological' my mind went to Steampunk and I went to my library to check out some fun oversized books with lots of wonderful art and photographs and inspiration.

The books: Steampunk: the Art of Victorian Futurism by Jay Strongman; Steampunk: an Illustrated History of Fantastical Fiction, Fanciful Film, and Other Victorian Visions by Brian J. Robb; and The Steampunk Bible: an Illustrated Guide to the World of Imaginary Airships, Corsets and Goggles, Mad Scientists, and Strange Literature by Jeff VanderMeer and S. J. Chambers.

I watched on youtube the Australian animation film (about 26 minutes), The Mysterious Geographic Exploration of Jasper Morello (2005). It is very sad but very steampunk. And the visuals are lovely.

Here is The Steampunk Octet, a composition mentioned in some of the above works. And below that my own take on Sherlock Holmes' story "The Mazarin Stone" set in a Steampunk world.
