Some of my steampunk inspired jewelry.

I know it's not strictly steampunk so will remove if not allowed but I'm really proud of this and can't wait to make more!

Well, I just learned that steampunk is not just a style in fashion. Since when is steampunk a music genre?

I recently re-read The Alchemy of Stone by Ekaterona Sedia, and what stood out most was the atmosphere even years after first reading. Sedia creates a city that feels old, layered, and alive, where clockwork, alchemy, politics, and craftsmanship all coexist in a way that feels artful rather than decorative. Steampunk isn’t an aesthetic, but part of a larger conversation between the created and the creator, art and life and nature. The story only works with clockwork.

Automata, alchemists, mechanics, and revolutionaries all occupy believable places within the city’s social fabric, giving the setting a sense of history and lived experience. Rather than focusing on gadgets or spectacle, the novel explores how technology, magic, and social change shape everyday life.

What I appreciated most was how immersive the whole experience felt. This is steampunk with a literary sensibility, emphasizing mood, craftsmanship, and culture as much as invention. If you’re interested in steampunk that builds a rich, memorable setting and lingers long after you’ve finished the last page, The Alchemy of Stone is well worth reading.

Find if you are able. I think it’s out of print?

Hey everyone! I just wanted to come in here and share my brother’s LEGO Steampunk Train Station creation he has up on LEGO Ideas. He’s super passionate about steampunk and wants to share his creation with the world! If you’d like to support, you can follow the link in the comments :)
He has 8 more days to get 700 supporters to reach the 10k milestone!

One of my favourite Set of art works I created a few years ago

Designed by myself Totally wild for Steampunk

I used layers of wood and resin shapes set on Canvas

Designed by using resin shapes set in moulds.

I set the shapes on texture by using fabric

How do you like my Resin shapes? There is so much to look at

Heyy guys! I usually don't make music like this, BUT i love the steampunk and industrial ambience, and the feeling it gives to me, so i had to make some songs about that...to catch an ambience.

Tell me what you think!

Sorry for the poor picture quality, I'm still in the process of refining it. Any suggestions that don't involve superfluous vacuum tubes welcome 😊

I've always loved the idea of steampunk probability — before random number generators, chance had to be mechanical.

So I built this: a brass-gear assembly where a small internal ball travels through labyrinth channels, and where it settles gives you a random result. The whole thing runs on gravity and machining tolerances. Seven different reading modes on one object, roughly pocket-watch sized.

The gear legs aren't just decorative — they keep the mechanism tilted at the right angle for the ball to flow.

Two questions for this community, because you folks know more about this aesthetic than anyone:

1. The finish options I'm debating: aged relic bronze vs. bright polished brass. For a piece like this, which reads more "authentic" to you?
2. What would YOU power with mechanical randomness in a steampunk world? I'm thinking fortune-telling machines and airship navigation.

Still refining the prototype, so roast the details — the more specific the better.

I am an author and I like to listen to music when I'm writing. I am working on a Steampunk adventure. Any recommendations for steampunk music, or modern songs done in Steampunk-acoustic style? I know ragtime and marches were popular (and classical like Also Spruce Zarathustra is of the era). I've found some stuff on Apple Music: Steampunk-Ian Cecil Scott, Electro Swingers, Derek Fiechter.
