April Giveaway: Hop on the Airship!

By ProvidentMetals.com on April 11, 2018 Filed Under: Giveaways and Promotions

Works of fiction have always been prevalent in pop culture, fueling our imaginations and filling our lives with a sense of adventure. Over the past few decades, the steampunk genre has been gaining popularity among writers, filmmakers, costumers, and other hobbyists. But what is steampunk?

Steampunk reimagines the Victorian time period and culture as science fiction. The industrialized 19th century saw the rise of mechanized manufacturing and increasing urbanization. Steampunk expands on this notion by imagining more modern technologies in the steam-powered setting of the Victorian age. Steam engines are used in new forms of mass transit like airships, and other machinery drives advances in science and business.

Within the steampunk genre, you’ll see characters like aviators, mechanics, explorers, monster hunters, military figures, gunslingers, and aristocrats. These archetypes are generally seen wearing period clothing, with the addition of steam-powered gadgetry. For instance, you might find an explorer who wears a mechanical prosthetic leg or a scientist who wears a mechanized magnifying headset. These characters inhabit a futuristic version of our actual history. The appeal of steampunk is wide-ranging—from those who enjoy the clothing of the Victorian period to those who are drawn to the genre’s reimagining of modern technologies within the confines of  19th century machinery.

Want a better taste of what steampunk embodies? Watch our video—featuring the Angels and Demons Steampunk Series—to see the genre’s aesthetics.

    I was always one for war action. Or documentarys and mysteries. My father always watched the action movies and mother always read and made us go outside. I know it’s over but why not share
