What is Dieselpunk?

Dieselpunk is a mash-up of Jazz-age aesthetics with modern sensibilities. We revive ideas that were shelved because of the war, and we create new ideas that our grandparents could never have imagined.

This collage of Dieselpunk is a masterful presentation and I LOVE the music chosen for it. I am going to link to it on my blogroll.

Comment by Tome Wilson on June 4, 2011 at 10:49am: You've earned it, Stefan.

When I was putting this together, I couldn't think of anyone else I'd rather promote as an artist.

Comment by Stefan on June 4, 2011 at 6:51am: I am so happy and proud to see some of my pictures featured among these iconic images of the Dieselpunk quintessential spirit. It really means a lot to me.

Thank you very much, Tome and congratulations for this wonderful slide show. Truly a store window for the Dieselpunk movement !
