it made me laugh, so when you are trying to acchieve that, you can say this
is it :-)
But to win the IRTC, it may need a bit of tweaking on lights and
surroundings

Thanks JWV! I like to make people laugh, so I've achieved *something* at
least! :)

Hehe... I think I will. :)

EEEK! The word "win" was used! What's that?? ;)
Thanks again.

Nice image, but with that loop in the elastic band there needs to be a
twist to go with it. Or if you add a second loop correctly, you can do
without the twist.

GRRR... You spotted it! :) Would you believe I copied an elastic band
from my desk that looked like what you're explaining but I didn't bother
with the second loop? Yes, I guess so... ;)
Ok, a second loop coming up. ;)
Thank you Alex.

I like it this way. It is an image of a rubberband with a twist
(pun intended). I actually thought it was intended.

There where? "There" to what's likely to win the round ( A single-object
study with rad )? Yes. Still, not really minimalist in any way in which
I can imagine defining it. Looks like one of Tor's geometry posts with a
lot *added* to it.

Well, half a twist would be a minimalist Moebius.

Is a checkered grid important?

Ah, "To ascribe human characteristics to" - or similar. Well, sorry Jim,
but 'he' would be jumping into a wall, (and bounce back?) ;) Heh, it's
actually not clear in this image that the 'blackness' is a wall and finishes
at the end of those tiles... ;)

Well, I hope, (and I'm sure), you were in a whimsical mood. We need to
laugh more in this world.

Thanks Jim, I 'love' that image, but I thought the rivets used were too
unminimalistic, i.e., too complex to be minimalist. I'll have a play and see
what happens.

Or both. Jim, seriously, you help me. Thanks, I sincerely appreciate it.
(I've played with the gigantic rubber band, and it looks good, but I feel I
might submit a few images this time - double loop to come though...) ;)
