What do yo see? Is the question today's Swiss psychiatrist Hermann Rorschach and Google Doodle ask googlers with some "inkblots" or "klecksography", the art of making fanciful inkblot "pictures".
Hermann Rorschach, born on Nov. 8, 1884, was a Swiss Freudian psychiatrist and psychoanalyst best known for developing a projective test that reportedly, was designed to reflect unconscious parts of the patient's personality that project onto the stimuli.
In the test, the patient are shown 10 inkblots one at a time and asked to say what objects or figures they can recognize or visualize in each.
Hermann died of peritonitis at the age of 37, one year after he finished his book "Psychodiagnostik", which was to form the basis of the famous inkblot test.
In Google Doodle, users are shown a series of inkblots and asked to "share" on social media what they see in them.
