Jake von Slatt, a Steampunk Maker, sent this short film to Boing Boing:
"Here's a delightful short from some SF Steampunks I met at Maker Faire. I'm not sure if they are LARPers, but from the appearance of a McIntosh MC240 tube amp and a serious electronics workbench in one scene, I know that these are the sort of kids that Marcus Yallow would've hung out with!"
I don't know what that means either. But I can help with you with a rudimentary introduction to the Steampunk subculture here.
I love the effort that Steampunks put into their costume, which is heavy on the dress and not so much on the hair and make-up. I do wonder - and I'm not making fun here - what do the hardcores wear to the beach? Just have it on the brain considering the subject of my last few posts and the fact that summer is approaching.
