 and I am guessing that there are many more as well, so it was with some confusion that Londoners on the Central Line tried hard to make sense of the new artwork on some of the seats on the tube,

image: Transport for London, it seems that eleven years after being introduced to the Tube network, artist Michael Landy’s moquette artwork is finally grabbing peoples’ attention. His depiction of four red stick men appearing to be holding up two large rings between them alongside the words ‘Self’ and ‘Other’ can be found printed on train seats on the Central Line, so what does the sign mean? Judging by the answers of commuters responding to a popular thread on Reddit, not many people seem to know, “If you or others have donuts - don’t keep them to self - feed conjoined twins,” one person guessed, while another said it was a sign warning commuters to “keep away from other people's holes.” 

image posted by u/wybird, meanwhile, another Redditor argued that the design symbolised something a little deeper in meaning. They said: “The Other and the Self are philosophical ideas.” elaborating, they continued: “Basically, the Other is that guy or group you often cast out, and the Self is you and your essence. When you invite the Other into your circle you gain a greater understanding of the Other. Interpreting this, it seems they are saying it'll enhance your sense of Self too.” on the other hand, 

 photographs above and below Benedict Johnson, some Redditors provided much simpler explanations for the design. “It’s just a distraction technique to stop you thinking about how utterly filthy and disgusting the seats are,” one person suggested, another person said: “I guess if the point of art is to get people to imagine something then it's succeeded but yeah that is quite unsatisfying, enjoying reading everyone's alternative ideas though.”

 so can you guess what the symbols mean?

 well here is the official reading of the sign, according to the TfLwebsite, the design actually depicts a real-life story about a time when passengers on a Tube carriage ‘made a young boy smile as they passed round his large helium balloon in a gentle relay race’ and there was me thinking it was a new group of queers!
