“Steampunk Day is back with a fashion show, market and exhibition that asks you to re-envision the Victorian age with retro-futuristic fashion replete with ray guns, jet-packs and goggles. Featuring designs by Ami Nyitray Design, Berit New York and Kristin Costa. For the more literary minded, Tor Books hosts the Steampunk Literary Corner from 11am-4pm with readings by burlesque performer Nasty Canasta along with authors G.D. Falksen, Felix Gilman, Leanna Renee Hieber, and N.K. Jemison. Get your bustle on and come out for tea and scones. We're in a steam-powered state of mind.”
Rozalia Jovanovic, Flavorpill
What is steampunk you say? Steampunk personality, August Wahnsinger says, “Steampunk is Victorian-era science fiction. Anything that can be envisioned as a part of a scientifically advanced ‘steam’ era can be properly described as steampunk. Steampunk finds its origins in literature, going back to the works of Mary Shelley, Jules Verne and H.G. Wells.”
