I'm not unconvinced her time machine doesn't use at least one artifact. And it is possible for things be a combination like the fezzes. I only made the Sclage an artifact because of the one scene in season four, otherwise I'd have had no problem with it being all gadget. Likewise the Eclipse is not an artifact in my mind, nor is the tiny camera used with the memory paper. This wiki was made to expand and explain, but some things can't be. And what harm is there in using an artifact to fill in the gaps?

Starting in the first epsiode we even have some science in the artifacts themselves. Lucrezia's comb was made with ionized metals that collected an imprint of her mental state and can transmit them into the holder. Marsden's record uses a specific array of notes to stimulate the seratonin center of the brain. James Braid's chair springs only work with someone with a similar voice pattern to his because that's what the springs are attuned to. I was slightly dissapointed with how straightforward artifacts got in laetr seasons, but those are all a combination of "juju" and science.

You'ev got to remeber that outside the Warehouse, everything else IS reality. Only inside the Warehouse does this kind of technology exist. If anyone were able to make it with enough knowhow then it would be more prevalent and the Warehouse wouldn't have the need to collect it all. You've never watch Eureka (and you should), but it does answer a lot of scienc-related questions regarding what is and isn't possible within the realms of the Sci-Fi verse.
