More fun with Riese

Traveler | 30. November 2009

Riese the Series, Episode III – Bind Things get creepy This is the most intense of the three episodes so far. There are some seriously evil and abominable things going on which I do not dare hint at, see for yourselves: And one other question comes up from the dark recesses of my mind: Is [...]

Airship Pirates

Traveler | 26. November 2009

There is a song by Abney Park, Airship Pirates and just now, something struck me and I coupled two things together and came up with the following image (it’s a German political pun, so don’t worry if you don’t get it): Related items On this day in 1871 Steampunk Celebrities and some Politics Retro-Propaganda お誕生日おめでとうございます福澤様!

Feedback

Traveler | 25. November 2009

Recently I had quite a few emails from readers, so this entry is to thank them all, and I send this flower to all of you, which I found on Craft Juice: Also, special thanks to Mr. Steven Bloore who was kind enough to point my attention towards the return of the Zeppelin to the [...]

Steampunk aesthetics and philosophy

Traveler | 21. November 2009

Something has gotten into my mind that I think I can post here, mainly because it has some genuine content and might actually with time develop into an essay.

Double Feature – Extra Steampunk in deed!

Steampunk Holiday – 100 years ago today Deutsche Luftschiffahrts-Aktiengesellschaft was founded Ah, the glorious days of available and affordable Zeppelin travel had their official beginning with the founding of this [...]

Steampunks against Fascism

Traveler | 14. November 2009

I participated in a demonstration against certain undesireable elements in our society today. They pretend to remember the fallen heroes of our country, like I do, but in reality, they glorify fascist cruelty and idiocy and I have nothing more to say. Let the image speak: Related items Steampunk Compatible Music and Birthdays Steampunk Boot [...]

Riese the Series – First impressions

Traveler | 7. November 2009

I took little time and had a detailed look at the Riese the Series Channel on Youtube (see last entry). I also had a look at the websites of Riese the Series and The Sect. The Good: Costumes, setting, everything about the videos conveys a very convincing post-apocalyptic steampunk feel. I am especially fond of [...]
