Imagining a Better Future by Re-imagining the Past

A Change of Focus - Continued

In my last blog post I wrote about how my wife had inspired me to rethink the central focus of Dieselpunk from changing the past to changing the present and hence the future. In keeping with this reorientation, I’ve decided to make some changes to my blog.

Previously I had in my heading the following: “Celebrating All Things Dieselpunk”. While I still plan on do so here, I thought that heading needed to be updated for my new focus. So it now reads, “Imagining a Better Future by Re-imagining the Past.”


In addition, I’ve rewritten my statement “What is Dieselpunk?” from “Dieselpunk is a subculture and style that combines the zeitgeist of the 1920s through the 1940s with postmodern sensibilities”. It now reads, “Dieselpunk is a mashup of modern ideas with the style and spirit of the 1920s through the early 1950s. The goal is to combine the zeitgeist of the past with today's ideas in order to build a better tomorrow.”
