RPP - How to draw an imaginary symbol

How can we draw an imaginary symbol?
Let's note that the moment something is defined as an imaginary symbol, in any form, it becomes a symbol.
In order to make a drawing into a imaginary symbol, or something that is not a symbol, it is necessary to free it from its use as a symbol. But this is quite difficult. Even a single horizontal line on a white paper becomes a symbol of the horizon or a horizontal line.

However, the goal here is not to disconnect the drawn object from its meaning, but to change the flow of information to that meaning in an imaginary direction.
RPP was conceived as a way to create imaginary symbols, and is driven by the logical reasoning of the viewer. Tracking how a symbol was drawn would lead to a random source of information, and it was hoped that this recognition would stop the reception of information from that symbol.

Random Plot Process Algorithm

1.Prepare a target with the subject drawn on it.
2.Filling specially made dart arrows with paint.
3.Throw an arrow at the target from a distance. (A splash of paint will be on the spot where it hits.)
4.Measure the point where you hit it.
5.Fill in the measurement data in the designated column.
6.Extract the data in the prescribed way and fill in the result in another column.

Divination aura generator

RPP is similar to a divination system. But, of course, the goal is not to divine anything, but to generate an aura of divination. If these graphs and letters are arbitrarily determined, they will transmit information towards you as normal symbols. In order for it to be an imaginary symbol receiving information from you, it must be self-evident that it was determined at random.
