Steampunk Aesthetics as the Celebration of Opposites:
Date(s) - Sunday 7/20/2025 11:30 AM - Sunday 12:00 PMDescription
History and Futurism, Nature and Mechanics, Science and Mythology, Victorians and Iconoclasts. One of the fundamental aspects of the Steampunk genre seems to be about juxtaposing seemingly opposite concepts to make something that is both unique and utterly recognizable within the genre. By celebrating things that stand out from what is expected, the world of Steampunk has created a balance within its own culture through design, fashion, imagery and narrative. This panel is meant to explore those aspects of the Steampunk concept, why it works, and what directions it might take to keep things going into our own future.
