Patterns out of Chaos

[Oceania]

I'm wondering if anyone else experiences this.

I can look at a wall that has dots or streaks all over it, or random smudges, and see patterns in it. Like faces. It might be the brain that
puts order to chaos.

Is this pretty common? Is it something about the brain doing that,
or is it consciousness?

I mean from completely random visual noise, my mind can even find
adorable characters. And these characters tell stories to me
by the way they are presented visually.

It's usually just faces that I see. Both human and animal.

i love seeing faces. it's common in those who look. the brain is wired to recognize faces. it even creates them.
