--- ✨⚙️ LEARN FROM THE STEAMPUNK GURU ⚙️✨ ---
Renowned artist Bruce Rosenbaum, dubbed "Steampunk Guru" by The Wall Street Journal and "Steampunk Evangelist" by Wired, is coming to LaunchSpace! 🚀
Bruce founded Modvic with his wife in 2007, which repurposes and infuses modern technology and cool gadgets into historic antiques and salvaged objects. 🔨
They work with clients to design one-of-a-kind pieces, creatively combining eras and ideas to transform the ordinary into incredible Steampunk functional art. 🚂✨
What is "Steampunk"?
🗨️ Bruce explains it like this:
"The Steampunk design process celebrates history through telling the personal stories of individuals, organizations, hotels, bars, restaurants, corporations, museums, brands, and locations by reimagining period artifacts in new and meaningful ways. By repurposing objects, as well as the space around us, we take steps on a path towards re-imagining a better future."
