Dieselpunk
Dieselpunk is a subgenre of speculative fiction that combines elements of the Diesel Era, roughly from the 1920s to the 1950s, with futuristic technology and aesthetics. It often features anachronistic designs, blending vintage styles with advanced machinery, and is characterized by a gritty, industrial atmosphere.
The genre draws inspiration from various media, including literature, film, and art, often reflecting themes of conflict, societal change, and the impact of technology. Notable examples include the film Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow and the video game series Wolfenstein, which showcase the unique visual and narrative style of dieselpunk.
