Is it because I’ve been watching documentaries about some of the artists from the Nouveau Réalisme movement lately that I’ve started appreciating eclectic collections of objects? I’m not sure… All I know is that I now find myself rummaging through my trash cans—and even other people's—to see what I can salvage, picking up little objects I find on the street…

This image showcases a bottle that has been transformed into a captivating piece of art, embodying the steampunk aesthetic. The bottle's surface is richly adorned with a variety of small metal gears, rings, bolts, and mechanical components that are meticulously arranged in a seemingly random yet harmonious pattern. The overall color palette features aged brass and muted gold tones, which contrast with the greenish-blue patina, evoking a sense of antiquity and industrial craftsmanship. The upper part of the bottle's neck is wrapped with a rough, twine-like material, adding texture and grounding the metallic elements with a natural, tactile element. The background consists of rough wood planks, which enhance the rustic and vintage feel of the composition. This decorated bottle symbolizes the fusion of technology and artistry characteristic of steampunk culture, which draws inspiration from 19th-century industrial steam-powered machinery. The gears and mechanical motifs suggest the idea of movement, innovation, and the inner workings of machines, evoking curiosity about the secret mechanisms hidden within. The piece invites viewers to appreciate the beauty of intricate craftsmanship and the blending of old-world materials with imaginative design.

Not completely fair, but maybe fair enough for games.

"Researchers have figured out how to design dice with even more exotic shapes, like a kitten, a dragon, or an armadillo. And they are "fair" dice: Experiments with 3D-printed versions produced results that closely matched predicted random outcomes, according to a forthcoming paper currently in press at the journal ACM Transactions on Graphics."
