Steampunk feature film, Oculista
Here’s an interesting-looking trailer for a steampunk-influenced feature film which is trying to get off the ground. It’s called Oculista, and its teaser reads as: “A factory where humans ride penny-farthing cycles, powering something unknown, and receive frequent hypnotic leisure experiences, all with the promise of the entrance to a dream city.” The people behind […]
The Last Airbender: The Legend of Korra
Here’s the new trailer for The Last Airbender: The Legend of Korra… as you can see, it looks more dieselpunk than steampunk, now. But then it is set a couple of centuries after the original cartoon series, so I guess you would expect to see some progress in the world!

One of my favourite game sites, Joystiq, has pictures from the Batman by Gaslight game (based on the DC comicbook, of course) that never actually made it off the launchpad. Pity, as this looks like it could have been a winner.
Steampunk mobile phone
New Zealand-based designer Richard Clarkson has come up with a steampunk mobile phone to give the iPhone a run for its money – well, at least in the 19th century. Looks interesting.
Steampunk playing cards
Here’s the Steampunk playing cards set made by Design House Theory 11 – from a custom bronze paper that is made to look like metal.

Sony called in steampunk artist John Dunn of Baroquestone.com to give Sony’s VAIO F Series Laptop a complete steampunk makeover. Dunn created a custom design he calls the eCog Mercury. The initial sketches took over two weeks just to design before a single gear attached or copper detail was soldered.
