The Iron Throne from Game of Thrones is a chair of welded swords that has cut and even killed the people who craved to sit upon it. Mike DeWolfe, a computer programmer from Canada, made the Throne of Nerds by wrapping a chair with old computer keyboards:
The keyboard warping includes the scorching of almost all of the ESC keys to symbolize how impossible it can be escape suffering and blackness. The only key that is consciously left undamaged is the ESC key on the highest positioned keyboard.
Around the back, the keyboard cables have been arranged like human hair with an attempt to braid the cables that is ultimately left in a tangle. This denotes how good plans and order can degenerate into chaos.
