"Factoring out Horse Shit theory" was detected and partially decrypted on the afternoon of Thursday, 4 February 2021, by amateur mathematician and APTO consulting rebus theorist Karl Jones in a post on Twitter.
APTO subsequently convened the Gnomon Chronicles Rebus Authority as a licensed transdimensional corporation responsible for the safety and integrity of rebuses.

- Horseshoe map - In the mathematics of chaos theory, a horseshoe map is any member of a class of chaotic maps of the square into itself. It is a core example in the study of dynamical systems. The map was introduced by Stephen Smale while studying the behavior of the orbits of the van der Pol oscillator. The action of the map is defined geometrically by squishing the square, then stretching the result into a long strip, and finally folding the strip into the shape of a horseshoe.
