Steampunk Lighting Contraption

This has to be one of the coolest steampunk contraptions I’ve seen in a while. It comes courtesy of a gentleman named Art Donovan, obviously a man with a bent towards cool steampunk sculptures and lighting creations. I traced this pic back to this Tumblr blog.

What exactly would this be? It’s cool, whatever it might be. I would say that it’s part time machine, part oracle, part pressure regulator. Whatever it is, it looks pretty darn awesome. Steampunk art never ceases to intrigue me.

I don't quite know if this completely falls under the category of "steampunk", but I did find it via Pinterest under a steampunk-ish category. Check out this octopus playing chess:

 Steampunk sculpture, maybe? Whatever it is, it's just flat-out cool.
