At long last I can openly mention the Steampunk Exhibit that will be featuring the work of myself and several other Gentlemen, in the UK this fall. Curated by Art Donovan, this exhibit features some of the newest and best contraptions in the Steampunk genre, all housed together for the very first time at the Museum of the History of Science in Oxford, England. This is a very exciting time for all involved! Unfortunately due to the new arrival on the way, funding will be almost impossible for a trip out there, but I will be there in spirit along with my other comrades of steam. The event will run October 13, 2009 - February 21, 2010.
The pieces that will be displayed from Steam Gear Lab, will be the Steampunk "EYE" pod, that was featured on Boing-Boing, Make, and other techie websites across the Internet earlier this year. I also have 4 new pairs of custom sculpted goggles that will be on display as well. (Pictures will be posted of those soon as well.)
Also in the works, Steam Gear Lab will be hosting the Steampunk side of the GAMEX Convention happening in October. We are in the works of setting up guest artists, contests and activities that are Steampunk related to give East Cost-ers an option besides SteamCon this fall. The event will run Oct 23th - 25th at the Greater Philadelphia Expo CenterHope to see some of you at these events!

Click the above link and it will tell you a little about what we are doing this August 20th from 5:30 - 10 PM along Main, Spring and Broadway in Historic Downtown Los Angeles.
One of our goals is to get a strong representing from not just steampunkers - but from all clothing base subcultures on the sidewalks of Downtown. We are also offering FREE retail spaces to display and sell your merchandise and free performance spaces if you want to showcase what you do. We are going to be covered by all the major media and it's going to be a great party.
We will also be putting up our website early this week - and send our major press release and would like to be able to include as many participants as we can.
If you have any questions - let me know.
