Entoptic Graphomania
Entoptic Graphomania is a surrealist and automatic method of drawing in which dots are made at the sites of impurities in a blank sheet of paper, and lines are then made between the dots. The method was invented by Dolfi Trost, a Romanian surrealist, in his book "Vision dans le cristal. Oniromancie obsessionelle. Et neuf graphomanies entoptiques" in 1945.

It kinda looks like Oogie Boogie from Nightmare Before Christmas.
As a maker of many entoptic graphomanias (e.g. http://www.artbreak.com/work/show/15684-gw-ferris-and-his-crown-above-the-rheumatic-caves-gaze-wistfully-at-the-appearance-of-the-ski-note-daniel-c-boyer ) I am interesting in seeing this post.
