Was it Mandelbrot that analysed people by what they saw in ink blots?

Well, when I first looked at this icon I thought it was a cycle seat. I
then tipped my head and saw a stilletto shoe. I dread to think what
this says about me! 😉

I've figured out what it's meant to be now.. have you?

Yeah, it looked good when it was about 10 pixels bigger - just
shrinking it that little bit has made it all a bit, well, black.

Maybe I'll post to the puzzles forum asking people to identify it.

It is a megaphone. Andrew, you might want to consider some
therapy. Bicycle seat and stilleto shoes? 😉Kirk

Are you thinking of Rorshach? Benoit Mandelbrot was primarily
responsible for all those beautiful fractal patterns you see adorning
the the walls of scientists and hippies.🙂

At first, I thought it was one of those new fangled "Rabbit"
corkscrews. Anyone seen the add for them yet??? Then, like trying to
find Waldo, I saw what it was.

Speaking of Rorshach, I read in a book one time about a response to
a blank Rorshach being held up. The response... "I see two polar
bears fornicating in a snow storm"

Bonus points for those who can name the book...😀

michael collins, a NASA astronaut once replied to a blank card in a rorschach test that he saw 19
polar bears fornicating in a snowbank...
