Steampunked

The design trend of Steampunk, where people modify current technology to make it look as if it was implemented in the victorian era, is really catching on. I have seen steampunked computers, action figures, electric guitars, even Nerf rifles. Pictured above is a personal computer in all its steampunk glory. The first time I saw steampunk was in the movie Dune, directed by David Lynch. The worlds of Arrakis, Caladan, Geidi Prime, and Kaitain were literally brimming with steampunk devices.

It's a weird concept, but I kinda like it. The people who engage in it are very serious about it and often very talented. Google it and check out some of the insanity...
