ambigram words
An ambigram is a indicated expression, talent or other symbolic representation whose elements sustain interpretation when viewed or interpreted from another route, point of view, or orientation.
The meaning of the ambigram may either change, or remain the same, when viewed or interpreted from different perspectives.
Douglas R. Hofstadter describes 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 word or words, differing in both style and form.
Popularity and discovery
The initial known non-natural ambigram schedules to 1893 by musician Peter Newell. Although better known for his children's books and illustrations for Mark Twain and Lewis Carroll, he released two catalogs of invertible illustrations, in which the picture turns into a different image completely when turned upside down. The final page in his book Topsys & Turvys provides the phrase THE final end, which, when inverted, reads PUZZLE. In Topsys & Turvys #2 2 (1902), Newell concluded with a variant 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 pieces in March,1904, but usually the format of this remove avoided the utilization of phrase balloons.
From June to September, 1908, the English regular The Strand released some ambigrams by different people in its "Curiosities" column. Of particular interest is the fact that four of folks submitting ambigrams believed them to be always a exceptional property of particular words. Mitchell T. Lavin, whose "chump" was released in June, wrote, "I believe it is in the only phrase in the English language which includes this peculiarity," while Clarence Williams had written, about his "Guess" ambigram, "Possibly B is the only letter of the alphabet that will produce such an interesting anomaly."
In 1969, Raymond Loewy designed the rotational NEW MAN ambigram logo design, which continues to be used today. The mirror ambigram DeLorean Motor Logo design was first found in 1975.
John Langdon and Scott Kim also each assumed that they had invented ambigrams in the 1970s. Langdon and Kim are most likely both artists who have been most responsible for the popularization of ambigrams. John Langdon produced the first reflection image custom logo "Starship" in 1975. Robert Petrick, who designed the invertible Angel company logo in 1976, was also an early effect on ambigrams.
The initial known published reference to the term 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 highlighted two 3-D ambigrams on the cover.
Ambigrams became popular consequently of Dan Brown incorporating John Langdon's designs in to the story of his bestseller, Angels & Demons, and the Movie release of the Angels & Demons movie consists of a bonus section called "This is an Ambigram". Langdon also produced the ambigram that was used for a few variants 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 Deceased have used ambigrams several times, including on the albums American and Aoxomoxoa Beauty.
In the first group of the English show Trick or Treat, the show's number and inventor Derren Brown uses credit cards with rotational ambigrams. These cards can read either 'Technique' or 'Treat'.
Although what spelled by most ambigrams are relatively short long, one Dvd and blu-ray cover for The Princess Bride movie creates a rotational ambigram out of two words: "Princess Bride," whether looked at right part or ugly up.
The Transformers movie series have logos that are a automatic robot face whether looked at right part up or ugly. You can find two such logos, one for an Autobot, and one for a Decepticon.
In 2015 iSmart's brand on one of its travel chargers travelled viral because upside-down it read "+Jews!" The company mentioned that "...we learned a robust lesson of what never to do when making a brand."
Types of Ambigram
Ambigrams are exercises in graphic design that play with optical illusions, symmetry and aesthetic notion. Some ambigrams include a romance between their form and their content. Ambigrams usually get into one of several categories:
3-Dimensional
- A design where an object is presented that will appear to learn several letters or words when seen from different perspectives. Such designs can be generated using constructive stable geometry.
Chain
- A design in which a phrase (or sometimes words) are interlinked, creating a repeating chain. Words are usually overlapped meaning that a expression will start partway through another portrayed phrase. Sometimes chain ambigrams are presented by means of a circle.
Dihedral
- An all natural mirror-image ambigram consisting of numerical digits.
Figure-ground
- A design in which the areas between the words of 1 phrase form another term.
Fractal
- A version of space-filling ambigrams where the tiled expression branches from itself and then shrinks in a self-similar manner, forming a fractal. See Scott Kim's fractal of the term "TREE" for an animated example.
Mirror-image
- A design that may be read when shown in a mirror, as the same phrase or word both ways usually. Ambigrams that form different words when viewed in the mirror are also called 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 dialect and other ways in another type of dialect. Multi-lingual ambigrams can exist in all of the many varieties of ambigrams, with multi-lingual perceptual switch ambigrams being impressive particularly.
