Steampunk

Steampunk is a retro-futuristic genre that combines elements of the Victorian era and the Industrial Revolution with imaginative, futuristic technology powered by steam. It’s characterized by a blend of historical and fantastical aesthetics, often featuring intricate clockwork mechanisms, brass gears, goggles, and steam-powered machinery. Set in an alternate version of the 19th century or in fantastical worlds inspired by it, steampunk explores themes of adventure, innovation, and sometimes dystopia. It has influenced literature, fashion, art, and film, creating a unique fusion of old-world charm with high-tech inventions.
