Photo (and Video) Friday: Celebrating 30 Years of (official) Steampunk

Thought I’d share some photos and videos from the Celebrating 30 Years of (official) Steampunk event from last week.  We discussed the definition of steampunk, chatted about costumes, events and music..

 

We talked recycling and upcycling and opshopping…

I showed off another sonic screwdriver…

and we did some did some surveys:

Had some live videos…

I did a talk On Steampunk – what I love, costuming, writing and history… and what if?

and Lynne’s did a talk on Australian Steampunk Writers (and cosplay and writing).

I’ll be posting two more videos from the day on my youTube channel. Thanks to everyone who participated. Thanks for sharing your stories and photos.
