Definitions (Steampunk)

While I admit to making comments about steampunk classification from time to time, usually in books I review, it’s because I want people to realize when something doesn’t fall into the bucket most see as steampunk so they’re not blindsided. I’ll also note steampunk mentality or aesthetics in things that don’t associate themselves with the term. In all honesty, the aesthetic, especially in fiction, existed long before the name, and continues to evolve. I’ve often felt modern steampunk ignores the punk aspect in terms of social protest or awareness, but that neither makes it not steampunk nor is it completely true as I realized here. This article takes on the condemnation of “not steampunk” with a cohesive argument worth reading. Steampunk is a DIY movement, and as such is composed of each inventor’s vision whether written, sung, performed, drawn, or built. It’s steampunk if the person intended it to be.
