Obtainium Works in Film & Television

Film & Book: Vintage Tomorrows, 2015

The Obtainium Works crew have become steampunk role models! "Vintage Tomorrows" is an in-depth look at the world of Steampunk and what it means to society and technology.  If you still haven't figured it out, the book  and the documentary can help! We met the author James Carrott and filmmaker Byrd McDonald at Maker Faire back in 2012. For the next year, they followed us around with cameras and notebooks documenting our wacky world, from Maker Faire, to Burning Man, to an epic Steampunk wedding onboard the Neverwas Haul.

The book was published through Maker Media in 2013. Buy on Maker Media's website or Amazon.

The film received global distribution rights through Samuel Goldwyn Films in 2016.
