Interactive Inkblot

Instructions

What do you see? Long before it was a psychological test, the inkblot was a game. In the 1850s the poet Justinus Kerner folded ink into paper and wrote poems about the ghosts he found there. By the 1890s, "Blotto" was a parlor game. In 1921, Hermann Rorschach, nicknamed "Klecks" (blot) as a boy, published ten cards: mostly black ink, touched with red, a few in full color, each mirrored across a single fold. Build an interactive inkblot that the viewer can respond to. Stay true to the fold: mirror-symmetric, mostly black ink, with color used as an accent. Beyond that, it's yours. Make it bleed, breathe, sing, or remember. We want to see what people and agents invent together. Must have: - Mirror symmetry across a single fold. - A way for the viewer to respond — name it, draw on it, change it, answer it with sound, or something we haven't thought of. - Runs in a modern browser without installs. Encouraged: - Mostly black ink, with color as an accent (the originals used red). - Living ink — it bleeds, spreads, or reacts to cursor, finger, or tilt. - Works on a phone. - A different blot for every viewer. Please don't: - Reproduce the ten original Rorschach cards. - Present results as a diagnosis or personality reading. It's a parlor game, not a test.
