ambigram words
An ambigram is a phrase, talent or other symbolic representation whose elements sustain so this means when viewed or interpreted from another course, perspective, or orientation.
The meaning of the ambigram may either change, or continue to be the same, when seen or interpreted from different perspectives.
Douglas R. Hofstadter represents an ambigram as a "calligraphic design that handles to squeeze two different readings into the selfsame set of curves." Different ambigram music artists (sometimes called ambigramists) may create very different ambigrams from the same term or words, differing in both form and style.
Popularity and discovery
The earliest known non-natural ambigram schedules to 1893 by designer Peter Newell. Although better known for his children's books and illustrations for Draw Twain and Lewis Carroll, he released two catalogs of invertible illustrations, in which the picture turns into a different image when turned upside down entirely. The final page in his publication Topsys & Turvys contains the phrase THE FINISH, which, when inverted, reads PUZZLE. In Topsys & Turvys Number 2 2 (1902), Newell ended with a variance on the ambigram where the END changes into PUZZLE 2.
The Verbeek strip "The UpsideDowns of old man Muffaroo and little female Lovekins" used ambigrams in 3 consecutive whitening strips in March,1904, but often the format of the utilization was prevented by this strip of expression balloons.
From to September June, 1908, the English every month The Strand published a series of ambigrams by different people in its "Curiosities" column. Of particular interest is the fact that all four of the people submitting ambigrams presumed them to be always a unusual property of particular words. Mitchell T. Lavin, whose "chump" was posted in June, composed, "I believe it is in the only word in the British language which has this peculiarity," while Clarence Williams had written, about his "Bet" ambigram, "Possibly B is the sole notice of the alphabet that will produce this interesting anomaly."
In 1969, Raymond Loewy designed the rotational NEW MAN ambigram company logo, today which continues to be in use. The mirror ambigram DeLorean Motor Company logo was first used in 1975.
John Langdon and Scott Kim each presumed that that they had created ambigrams in the 1970s also. Langdon and Kim are most likely both artists who've been most responsible for the popularization of ambigrams. John Langdon produced the first mirror image emblem "Starship" in 1975. Robert Petrick, who designed the invertible Angel custom logo in 1976, was an early on impact on ambigrams also.
The earliest known published mention of the word ambigram was by Hofstadter, who attributed the origin of the expressed word to conversations among a small group of friends during 1983-1984. The original 1979 edition of Hofstadter's G?del, Escher, Bach featured two 3-D ambigrams on the cover.
Ambigrams became more popular as a result of Dan Brown incorporating John Langdon's designs in to the storyline of his bestseller, Angels & Demons, and the Dvd movie release of the Angels & Demons movie consists of a bonus section called "That is an Ambigram". Langdon also produced the ambigram that was used for a few versions of the book's cover. Darkish used the real name Robert Langdon for the hero in his books as an homage to John Langdon.
In music, the Grateful Dead have used ambigrams many times, including on their albums Aoxomoxoa and North american Beauty.
In the first group of the British show Treat or Trick, the show's web host and originator Derren Brown uses credit cards with rotational ambigrams. These cards can read either 'Technique' or 'Treat'.
Although what spelled by most ambigrams are brief in length relatively, one DVD cover for The Princess Bride-to-be movie creates a rotational ambigram out of two words: "Princess Bride," whether seen right aspect or ugly up.
The Transformers movie series have logos that are a automatic robot face whether seen right aspect up or ugly. A couple of two such logos, one for an Autobot, and one for a Decepticon.
In 2015 iSmart's company logo using one of its travel chargers proceeded to go viral because upside-down it read "+Jews!" The ongoing company mentioned that "...we learned a robust lesson of what not to do when creating a custom logo."
Types of Ambigram
Ambigrams are exercises in graphical design that play with optical illusions, symmetry and visible belief. Some ambigrams include a romance between their form and their content. Ambigrams usually get caught in one of several categories:
3-Dimensional
- A design where an subject is presented that can look to read several words or words when looked at from different sides. Such designs can be produced using constructive stable geometry.
Chain
- A design where a phrase (or sometimes words) are interlinked, forming a repeating chain. Characters are usually overlapped and therefore a phrase begins partway through another expression. String ambigrams are presented in the form of a group sometimes.
Dihedral
- An all natural mirror-image ambigram consisting of numerical digits.
Figure-ground
- A design where the places between the letters of 1 term form another phrase.
Fractal
- A version of space-filling ambigrams where the tiled phrase branches from itself and then shrinks in a self-similar manner, creating a fractal. See Scott Kim's fractal of the word "TREE" for an animated example.
Mirror-image
- A design that may be read when shown in a mirror, as the same word or term both ways usually. Ambigrams that form different words when viewed in the mirror are also known as glass door ambigrams, because they can be printed over a glass door to be read differently when entering or exiting.
Multi-Lingual
- An ambigram that may be read the best way in one language and another way in a new words. Multi-lingual ambigrams can exist in every of the many varieties of ambigrams, with multi-lingual perceptual shift ambigrams being particularly striking.
