    Steampunk is a retrofuturistic genre of science fiction that incorporates 19th century industrial steam-powered machinery and aesthetic designs into modern technology. It originated as a literary genre but has expanded into a cultural movement where technology and designs from the 1800s are mixed with science fiction elements, reimagining steam-powered machines from the Victorian era as elaborate works of art, fashion, and mechanics. Steampunk reflects a human desire to create and improve the present through imagination, as seen in the novels of Jules Verne.
