Time for a Alien Art Hive meta-post!
My friend @nyarlathotep, with whom I have once cooperated in making an art work, posted some of his fine and frisky fractals yesterday here on the Art Hive itself, and he dared me to prove that I really had seen that chaos Labrador retriever with a beak and a bird. (Go to his post and see thing yourself!)
So here are the three Rorschach images and what I saw - painted on top.
A maimed Labrador Retriever with a beak; warped by chaos and with a featherless bird on its head
A moth transformer. Can possibly change into a VW Beetle
Skeletor from Masters of the Universe in some fancy haute couture.
Afterwards I got to think of the comic Watchmen by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons, where the Character Rorschach is in prison and has to look at Rorschach tests with a psychiatrist.
The text is in Danish (as I have scanned it from my own copy), but the psychiatrist ask him to tell what he really sees. Earlier in the book he has answered that he saw a beautiful butterfly.
