About my design
by bespoke
THE HOMAGE TO RORSCHACH'S
INKBLOT TEST (Session Collection)
is designed to help the wearer accurately
assess various personality traits of people
that they might encounter on a day to day
basis. These encounters could be with per-
fect strangers, relatives, friends, politicians
and primates.

By following these easy steps, you will be
able to conclude that everyone that you
have come into contact with, are all a bit
'off the wall'.

STEP 1: OBTAIN A RESPONSE
The wearer is asked to obtain a response
from a candidate about the design on the
t-shirt. Take Note: Responses in any way
similar to "It's a piece of crap", allows the
wearer to skip straight to Step 3.

STEP 2: INTERPRET THE RESPONSE
1. If the candidate responds to the design
as a whole, it could be concluded that they
are able to deal with relationships in
meaningful ways. Milk this aspect of their
personality for your own benefit.

2. A response to minor details could
indicate obsessive compulsive tendencies,
which is a defense mechanism protecting
them from having to cope with larger
issues in their life. Point this out to them,
it will drive them up the wall.

3. A response to negative (white) space
could be interpreted as the candidate's
inclination to see things in their own way,
it could be a manifestation of negativism
and stubbornness. Do not in any way
aggravate these candidates.

4. If the candidate sees colour, but is pre-
dominantly guided by the form of the ink-
blot, they are believed to be capable of
feeling deeply, but also of holding back
their feelings. Take Note: These candidates
are walking time-bombs and should be app-
roached carefully.

STEP 3: DRAW CONCLUSIONS
Decide whether you would like to pro-
ceed with having any further contact with
the candidate.

ADDITIONAL INTERPRETATIONS
If the candidate sees red as symbolising
blood, their impulses are unmanageable.
Normally attributed to Vampires.

If the candidate is confused about seeing
male or female elements in the inkblot,
they might be in conflict over their own
gender. Do not, under any circumstances,
point this out to the candidate.

If the candidate sees movement, it could
be concluded that they are intelligent
and creative. After 1000 responses, it
appears that everyone is creative.

If the candidate sees animals, but no
people, they may have problems relating
to people. Normally attributed to politicians.

agree with skipcronnin, just because they're fairly repetitious.

Bravo! This is the only Rorshach image that has gone from puke on paper to elegant beauty. Neat placement, too!

AWESOME!

Great for a shirt design, aesthetically pleasing, and also practical in that you can test whoever comes your way. personally I am the candidate in the fourth scenario. the walking time-bomb. I would def buy this WHEN threadless prints it.

hey wow lets be pretentious.
way to leave a ridiculously long
explanation of something we ALL get.

btw everyone can do this in photoshop,
hell even MS Paint in about 1.4 seconds.

and finally, that placement would never even get accepted by threadless.

Did you read what the author said? It's funny. Not just an explanation. At first I thought the same thing "why oh why is there so much writing." Then I read it, and laughed. And everyone COULD do it, but this artist did, so he gets props. 4 for you.

Gorgeous design, and I love, love the psychological reference. Even if Threadless needs to adjust the size, so it doesn't extend over the seams, I believe it would still make an excellent shirt. I would love to wear this.
