The steampunk initially a sub-genre has been born into the speculative science fiction that emerged during the 1980s and early to 90.1 today, mature into an artistic and social movement and not just literary. 2 The steampunk usually unfolds in a setting where steam technology is still used for normal, settled in England during the Victorian era, where it is not uncommon to find common elements of science fiction or fantasy.
Steampunk-themed works often feature futuristic technologies or inventions anachronistic imagined by visionaries of his time, all based on Victorian perspective on culture, art, fashion and even architecture.
The steampunk drinks primarily the work of H. G. Wells and Jules Verne and the imagery found in his works, 3 as well as the dieselpunk, this subgenre can encompass within the retro-futuristic motion, the genre of speculative fiction and Ucronia, but their tendency to incorporate elements of fantasy and the more relaxed and utopian nature of his plots both dieselpunk him away as cyberpunk.
To the right are of progress, modernity, the new age ... I like as much as us this data processing center? Well friends, if you want a team like this take note of these gadgets that are going to present the tireless gentlemen (and lady) of I can not believe I have invented: Ladies and gentlemen, will witness the wonders that technology and advanced technology have made for our enjoyment and comfort. They are the most advanced mills of our prolific nineteenth century that surely will please leave them open-mouthed.
We started our adandura with this magnificent tower computer, thanks to the miracle of electricity, processing data obtained at breakneck speed and is also very pleasing to the eye and a modern and distinctive design. All thanks to the genius of our time Jack of all Trades.
But ... what would a tower computer without a mouse to accompany? The author of the tower must have thought we have seen since its inception that it was perfectly accompanied by this beautiful and practical accessory that is also fully ergonomic. As we see, work comfortably is not incompatible with a thoroughly modern and attractive design.
Surely at this stage of our journey many gentlemen and many ladies will wonder "How on earth (with apologies to those present) for data entry will I process?" For with this great tool: the keyboard. The creators of this fine genius are inspired by our popular typing machines for data entry is a pleasant task to have a tool with an appearance and known to all.
I see some faces in the audience unsatisfied: they have realized that many people lack these miraculous devices and still working with paper. How to solve the problem of processing data on our computer printed? Well thanks to this wonder called the Anglo-Saxons "scanner" (or something):
This device, with its wonderful beam of light, converts any data printed page. Of course, even in this century of progress, many people seem to thing of witchcraft and it is likely that if they come to our house, printing make them faint. For this and for these sensitive souls, their manufacturers have camouflaged within a glossy book.
But friends, do not jump yet done with these unique objects, which still remains the quintessential peripheral device that will make everyone stay home with open mouth: This beautiful fully flat screen that will give all our set a noble air . As I say, perfect for displaying our work and to view images in movement (Kinetoscope was his name?)
Now we have the whole team. I know some do not see much future, but let me tell you something ... Maybe it's an exaggeration, but, say, the imaginative and fantastic French writer Jules Verne is served by one of one of these teams complete to write their stories.
But wait ... do not go. If the curious have technology that seems complicated and too given to excesses of work, there is still a delicious gadget for those who want to relax: this high-tech phonograph that plays not old, dirty and squeaky slate records, but a resistant new range of music discs (call them "Compact Disc" whose unrivaled sound makes you feel transported to other worlds.
And by the way, speaking of transporting us to other worlds. It is a device that will surprise them and want to try as soon as you see. Do you think flying alone is the heritage of the birds? Well they are wrong: here is the "airplane", prepared by some artisans of the distant Ukraine. No, do not panic, the device is not really wood, is a clever imitation created with paint. I assure you that the "airplane" is constructed from a material so light that is capable of rising to greater height than any known bird.
Do not know about you, but I feel exhausted. Prodigy both clouds the mind and tired.Oh! Viewing these devices I can not help wondering something. If in the nineteenth century we are seeing so wonderful ... what awaits us in the twentieth century? So what awaits us in the XXI century?
