The Victorian Era was a mixed bag of poverty, abuse, innovation, adventure, repression, exploration and tumultuousness.
What draws many steampunkers is that "explosion of intellectual, scientific, literary and artistic curiosity." Like the Victorians, steampunkers "extremely interested in science, venturing abroad and recording the natural world around them", and we have a much broader technological base with which to play.
I would love to see this exhibit.
Pity that the TSA and my own country prevents me from doing so.
