It's basically a genre in which older (typically 19th century), real life items are mixed with futuristic technology. The movie Wild Wild West, starring Will Smith, is a good example.
Thanks , I watched the first "Wild, Wild West" on tv back in the day; I just couldn't get interested in remake.

So "steam punk" is the house I grew up in or maybe the one I live in today? I usually can't get my "futuristic" technology to work.

Actually I think I have it, the original Nautilus of Jules Vern- the ultimate steampunk? Rivets and nuclear energy?
