Please design a color tattoo of a brain from the left side. There is no face, just a brain. On the brain, there is a switch that says at the bottom “relaxed” and at the top “burnout”. The switch is flipped up. Also in the brain, there is a gauge labeled “pain”. The gauge has numbers 0 to 11. The arrow is pointing to 11. The arrow is made of fire or lightening. There is also a steampunk tube labeled “social”, and the tube is empty. There is another tube labeled “energy”. That is also empty. Somewhere on the tattoo is steam or smoke.

"A minimalist human silhouette from the shoulders up, inside the head a labyrinth-shaped brain with organic, flowing folds. Hidden within the brain’s labyrinth are the words 'ἀνεξέταστος', 'βίος', 'ἀνθρώπῳ' subtly integrated into the folds, visible only upon close inspection. Style: fine line tattoo, black ink, clean and elegant. Optional small elements: a subtle light beam or eye emerging from the labyrinth to symbolize insight and self-reflection. Focus on symmetry, clarity, and philosophical symbolism
