apparently that ambigram i made a couple of years ago naturally tessellates a bit. so of course i had to see how 1,400 square pixels of this looked. (it looked awesome) and i got to name a photoshop layer “the outer niks”.

more on ambigrams:

ambigrams are words/phrases that can be read from more than one direction. the image above is a rotational ambigram, which can be read when rotated 180°.
