After a long time, I am happy to once again bring you some news concerning Riese the Series. The name has changed, it is now Riese: Kingdom Falling and they have switched from Youtube to Syfy.com. It was about time. I was getting a bit itchy about it being stuck somewhere in deal-negotiation limbo. But, [...]

Halloween is almost upon us and apart from promoting and supporting Peter Montgommery’s Steampunk Halloween project, I have done little in the spirit of the season. Until now, that is… Just in time to get something creepy on my blog I was contacted by Joshua Hoffine who introduced his latest creation to me: Robot Now [...]

This time, I have to thank both of my main contributors of material to this blog, Timo and Luftschiffharry. Within almost exactly three hours of one another they send me a link via æthermail. They both do not know each other, so this was not a orchastrated event. What they had to show me was [...]

Last year, October was Steampunk Month at Tor.com, this year, they probably had a budget cut or could not find enough æther, so it’s only two weeks of Steampunk and we are alread in the middle of it. I am sorry I did not mention it earlier, but there are several constraining elements. Apat from [...]

First, there is obviously Clockworker, the premier German language Steampunk website, blog and community. Although being able to read German helps, there [...]

Thank the Gods (especially Cthulhu) for Army Surplus stores, seriously. Most of the stuff you get there is durable and reasonably priced. With a little looking around and the right combination you can get quite the Dielsepunk look. Most of the stuff is machine-washable and dries reasonably quickly. The third point has recently become increasingly [...]

While actually not looking for fashion, I came across a company by the name of The Affair which trades in t-shirts. But to say they trade in t-shirts and leave it at that would be like saying Terry Pratchett writes nice books or H.P. Lovecraft was a horror writer of some note. In other words, [...]

Already quite a while back, I mentioned a Steampunk fashion show in New Zealand. Now, there’s more Steampunk coming to us from down under. This time, I want to point your inquisitive eyes and ears towards Alex the Kid, a really fresh and new Steampunk band with a sound I find quite appealing. To wet [...]

As you may recall, I did a little thing on the powerful, very unique art of James Ng a few weeks back. Now imagine my delight when I opened my Æthermail inbox today to find a message from the master himself! Even better, he thanked me for my positive review (nothing to thank me, really, [...]
I am an anthropologist and in this capacity a minor scholar of the Cthulhu Mythos and H.P. Lovecraft. I am also quite obviously heavily into Steampunk and Dieselpunk and like travelling.
More about me can be found here and also here (in German).
