Fringe has a bunch of glyphs that they use during commercial breaks and hint at what the next episode will be about, each glyph is a letter, but also they all have a deeper meaning.

The seahorse has a Fibonacci spiral inside of the golden ratio. It's hard to tell on the icon, but the tail is also a Fibonacci spiral. And lastly, Robert Bischoff, Peter's grandfather was nicknamed Das Seepferdchen (the seahorse) because he was a great swimmer. So out of all the glyphs I thought the seahorse was the most fitting for a default icon.

WHAT PLANS DO YOU HAVE FOR ERIK?
