If you think the throne is rough, wait until you see the crown.

Take "Game of Thrones." Stir in a high level of geekiness. Add a dash of Salvador Dali. Mix well. Apply heat. Congratulations, your name is Mike DeWolfe and you've just created the Throne of Nerds.
The Throne of Nerds is a full-size replica of the Iron Throne from "Game of Thrones," but with one important difference. Instead of being forged from the swords of his fallen enemies, DeWolfe sculpted the beast from the keyboards of his fallen enemies. All the keys and hard plastic make it look just marginally more comfortable than the pointy metal version it's modeled after.
To get the proper look, DeWolfe used at least 20 keyboards mounted to a chair. Many have been melted and shaped to fit. "The underlying message is one of suffering. The keyboards have been melted and warped. They're made to twist to fit, but at the same time that renders them unusable because they cannot fulfill their intended purpose," he writes.
