Dense Caption

The image shows a 16x16 pixel monochrome icon. The central subject is a stylized human skull facing forward. It has large dark eye sockets and nasal cavity openings. A single black eyepatch covers the left eye socket (viewer's right). Overlapping the skull are white headphones with thick earcups and headband, rendered in low-resolution pixels. Below the skull, there is partially visible pixelated text that appears to be '1P' followed by a series of indistinct characters; the full text cannot be confidently read due to pixelation. The background is solid black.
