Cory Doctorow has written an excellent essay on steampunk for the next issue of MAKE Magazine, which is also always awesome. This next issue is particularly exciting to me, because it is being edited by Gareth Branwyn, who was responsible for getting all us steampunks together last year at the Maker’s Faire in the bay. Oh, and it’s steampunk themed. And for once, hearing that something is steampunk themed doesn’t make me cringe.

I’m also just kinda excited, cause the name of the essay is Love The Machine, Hate The Factory, which is a phrase I came up with. And we sell patches of it over at tangledwilderness.org. Just sayin.
