ambigram words
An ambigram is a indicated word, art form or other symbolic representation whose elements keep meaning when seen or interpreted from another route, point of view, or orientation.
This is of the ambigram may either change, or continue to be the same, when interpreted or viewed from different perspectives.
Douglas R. Hofstadter explains an ambigram as a "calligraphic design that manages to squash two different readings in to the selfsame set of curves." Different ambigram designers (sometimes called ambigramists) may create very different ambigrams from the same phrase or words, differing in both style and form.
Popularity and discovery
The earliest known non-natural ambigram schedules to 1893 by artist Peter Newell. Although better known for his children's literature and illustrations for Draw Twain and Lewis Carroll, he published two literature of invertible illustrations, in which the picture turns into a different image when turned upside down entirely. The final page in his book Topsys & Turvys provides the phrase The ultimate end, which, when inverted, reads PUZZLE. In Topsys & Turvys Number 2 2 (1902), Newell concluded with a variance on the ambigram where the final end changes into PUZZLE 2.
The Verbeek remove "The UpsideDowns of old man Muffaroo and little sweetheart Lovekins" used ambigrams in 3 consecutive whitening strips in March,1904, but otherwise the format of the use was avoided by this strip of term balloons.
From to September June, 1908, the United kingdom every month The Strand released a series of ambigrams by differing people in its "Curiosities" column. Of particular interest is the actual fact that all four of the individuals submitting ambigrams presumed them to be a rare property of particular words. Mitchell T. Lavin, whose "chump" was publicized in June, had written, "I believe it is in the only expression in the British language which has this peculiarity," while Clarence Williams composed, about his "Choice" 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 logo design, which continues to be in use today. The mirror ambigram DeLorean Motor Logo design was first used in 1975.
John Langdon and Scott Kim also each thought that that they had created ambigrams in the 1970s. Langdon and Kim are most likely both artists who have been most in charge of the popularization of ambigrams. John Langdon produced the first mirror image logo design "Starship" in 1975. Robert Petrick, who designed the invertible Angel custom logo in 1976, was an early influence on ambigrams also.
The earliest known published mention of the term ambigram was by Hofstadter, who attributed the origin of the word to conversations among a little group of friends during 1983-1984. The original 1979 edition of Hofstadter's G?del, Escher, Bach presented two 3-D ambigrams on the cover.
Ambigrams became more popular as a result of Dan Dark brown incorporating John Langdon's designs into the story of his bestseller, Angels & Demons, and the Movie release of the Angels & Demons movie has a bonus chapter called "That is an Ambigram". Langdon also produced the ambigram that was used for a few types of the book's cover. Dark brown used the name Robert Langdon for the hero in his books as an homage to John Langdon.
In music, the Grateful Dead have used ambigrams several times, including on the albums Aoxomoxoa and American Beauty.
In the first series of the British isles show Halloween, the show's number and inventor Derren Dark brown uses cards with rotational ambigrams. These cards can read either 'Trick' or 'Treat'.
Although what spelled by most ambigrams are short in length relatively, one DVD cover for The Princess Bride-to-be movie creates a rotational ambigram out of two words: "Princess Bride," whether viewed right part up or upside down.
The Transformers movie series have logos that are a automatic robot face whether looked at right side up or upside down. You will discover two such logos, one for an Autobot, and one for a Decepticon.
In 2015 iSmart's emblem using one of its travel chargers proceeded to go viral because upside-down it read "+Jews!" The ongoing company noted that "...we learned a robust lesson of what never to do when making a brand."
Types of Ambigram
Ambigrams are exercises in graphical design that play with optical illusions, symmetry and aesthetic perception. Some ambigrams include a relationship between their form and their content. Ambigrams usually fall under one of the categories:
3-Dimensional
- A design where an thing is shown that will appear to read several characters or words when viewed from different sides. Such designs can be generated using constructive sturdy geometry.
Chain
- A design where a term (or sometimes words) are interlinked, forming a repeating chain. Characters are usually overlapped and therefore a word will start partway through another phrase. Chain ambigrams are presented by means of a circle sometimes.
Dihedral
- An all natural mirror-image ambigram consisting of numerical digits.
Figure-ground
- A design in which the spaces between the words of 1 term form another word.
Fractal
- A version of space-filling ambigrams where the tiled expression branches from itself and then shrinks in a self-similar manner, developing a fractal. See Scott Kim's fractal of the term "TREE" for an animated example.
Mirror-image
- A design that can be read when reflected in a reflection, as the same phrase or phrase both ways usually. Ambigrams that form different words when viewed in the mirror are also known as glass door ambigrams, because they could be printed on the glass door to be read differently when entering or exiting.
Multi-Lingual
- An ambigram that can be read one way in one vocabulary and yet another way in another type of words. Multi-lingual ambigrams can exist in all of the various varieties of ambigrams, with multi-lingual perceptual shift ambigrams being particularly striking.
