This theme continues the aesthetics of the diesel era into later periods by describing a world where survival is placed above aesthetical evolution. 'Ottensian' focuses on a setting where the decadent aesthetics and utopian philosophies of the American Roaring Twenties continued to evolve unhindered by war or economic collapse. Ottensian dieselpunk fiction is primarily concerned with a positive vision of technology and incorporates 'an enthusiasm for the predictions about the future'."}]}, {"components": [{"component_name": "heading", "heading": "Notable Artists and Artworks", "level": 2}, {"component_name": "media_gallery", "media": [{"caption": "a man wearing sunglasses and driving a car", "url": "http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2037/2163470598_fb7571cdab_z.jpg?zz=1", "source_url": "https://dieselpunksencyclopedia.wordpress.com/category/machines/", "title": null, "type": "image", "id": 178402, "html": null, "alt": null}, {"caption": "What Is Dieselpunk?

Dieselpunk costumes tend to be less reliant on gadgets and gizmos than those you'll find in the steampunk movement."}]}]}
