Nemo’s profile description is: "Nemo is one of the most beautiful and detailed SIM in SL featuring the Steampunk submarine city (Nemo's workshop, the tesla room), Northelia the steampunk Village, Alnitak the flying City ( the house of mirrors, the Air Museum) and much more!"
According to Wikipedia Steampunk is:
“Steampunk is a sub-genre of science fiction, alternate history, and speculative fiction that came into prominence during the 1980s and early 1990s.[1] Specifically, steampunk involves an era or world where steam power is still widely used—usually the 19th century and often Victorian era Britain—that incorporates prominent elements of either science fiction or fantasy. Works of steampunk often feature anachronistic technology or futuristic innovations as Victorians may have envisioned them; in other words, based on a Victorian perspective on fashion, culture, architectural style, art, etc.”
For a video clip explaining the layout and more of the whole site visit http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gTtecn2kPpg&p=D1F52E6280264930&playnext=1&index=65, again it is well worth watching! Another video clip can be seen at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXcQVgnOP1Q I guess it is just so successful people like it and can use it for machinima and story telling. I don't know why he is leaving but is seems very sad to me, there are hours and hours of building involved in the sim.
It is easy to see from the photographs that this build is exactly that and very good quality, absolutely fascinating in all that it has to offer. It is so detailed, every bit of metal has a texture including rust spots, there is grass growing up through the road, the steam is dirty grey – it is so clever!
