My son asked similiar questions to yours. He's now in his second year of grad school. Check out a process called mokome kane. Whole new worlds are out there.. billets of metal, alloys for color, patination.
Other fun things ..Your words stick to it. might lead to mechanical jioning. braid twist and forge contrasting wires copper and brass. mix some some twisted square stock into the picture..run the whole thing through a rolling mill.
You might get instant celtic design..
only the best darf
