Steampunk clockmaker Roger Wood among his creations:

I believe Roger’s clocks do work, but steampunk isn’t always about making things that function. It’s a genre of fiction that often becomes three-dimensional. Part of what’s really neat about it is that a steampunk doesn’t have to be in a book or a movie. It can exist in an artefact, Maybe that’s what I mean — steampunk is fictional archaeology.

Isn’t a steampunk clock just a clock? I mean, steampunk is usually distinguished by brass and gears and intricate mechanisms… which clocks already have.

er… clockmaker? overstatement much…? unless he really create the real working mechanism… I can see only clocks on wheels and some gears slapped on…

How many of the clocks pictured are actually steam-powered? I hope at least one of them, that would be so cool.

His things are really a lot of fun and I’ve always gotten a big kick out of how he used a can of “SOUPE” for scale.

I am, I suppose, not the only one who stared intently at that image on the main page trying to find him there among all the machines.
