steampunk eye-pod

This is a working iPod, with dock and speaker. Its made from old typewriters, formed brass and steel, leather and quartz crystals. The gigantic eye is popping out from the iPod controller section, and a crystal ball replaces the screen; all resting on a victrola base with a blaring horn. I absolutely love it! There is something quite unexpectedly beautiful about steampunk design. I love the fantastical nature of it, the intricate motley mix of materials.

The eye-pod was made by Dr Grymm. And there are more photos on his Flickr set.
