Steampunk blog post of Pictures!

Hi Theo here- I have been dropped of at home after a recent journey to the Steampunk Festival in Oamaru.Dr Eviltophat and Rufina Haggart have departed the Antipodes for a adventure in South America... something about Carnivale and rare tusked parrots. Anyway some of us have to go back to school... sort of. They left me with a USB stick which contained interesting images of Theo, Chanda, Dr Eviltophat and Rufina. So this week is a caption journal of the trip. Enjoy my peoples.

  1. Hi Theo, Steam Punk looks SO cool. I wonder who invented it. Looks like you had lots of fun there. Melissa (friend of your Mum from PEI)

  2. Can you tell me who invented Steam Punk and about your characters when visiting there?

  3. Hi thanks for reading my blog, It is cool to get readers from other countries. Steampunk is about lots of things, literature, movies, fashion, gadgets and having fun. It's about retro-futurism, imagining the future from the past, especially imaging the future from the era of steam power (Victorian times). It is also about techno-fantasy and a neo-victorian aesthetic (these ideas came from a guy in Canada who has written heaps about this). I love it because it is a good place for my imagination and I like drawing rayguns and creating characters. I have created Wildcard, and Dr Eviltophat, and my mum created Rufina Haggart. There are lots of websites that talk about steampunk, even Lego is making a set this year. Toodles, The-O.
