WHAT IS STEAMPUNK? Steampunk is a sub-genre of science fiction that typically features steam-powered machinery,[1] especially in a setting inspired by industrialized Western civilization during the 19th century. Therefore, steampunk works are often set in an alternate history of the 19th century's British Victorian era or American "Wild West", in a post-apocalyptic future during which steam power has regained mainstream use, or in a fantasy world that similarly employs steam power. Steampunk perhaps most recognizably features anachronistic technologies or retro-futuristic inventions as people in the 19th century might have envisioned them, and is likewise rooted in the era's perspective on fashion, culture, architectural style, and art. Such technology may include fictional machines like those found in the works of H. G. Wells and Jules Verne, or the modern authors Philip Pullman, Scott Westerfeld, and China Miéville. Other examples of steampunk contain alternate history-style presentations of such technology as lighter-than-air airships, analog computers, or such digital mechanical computers as Charles Babbage and Ada Lovelace's Analytical Engine. *** GUEST PERFORMERS OF THE NIGHT *** • Steam Powered Giraffe • Sammy and the Addiction • Noah and the Megafauna • MTBA *** SPECIAL GUEST MC's *** TBA ** LIVE BODY PAINTERS ** Jessica Miranda *** PHOTOBOOTH *** TBA *** FEATURED ARTISTS *** (With over 50 artists displaying artwork) *** STEAMPUNK VENDORS *** (For vendor info please e-mail us at steampunkla.vendors@gmail.com *** SPONSORS & SUPPORTERS *** • Your Steampunk WANT TO SHOW YOUR STEAMPUNK THEMED/INSPIRED ARTWORK AT THIS EVENT???
