Recently I was studying about the symmetry of nature,and I was amazed to be alightened by the fact that almost everything in this world is somehow symmetrical . have you ever heard of "Pinacogram".
One more fact,the more the symmetry more beautiful it looks.
Artists and designers have for centuries emulated a proportion called the "Golden Mean" or "Golden Ratio" found in nature into their works. The golden ratio is a proportion defined by the number Phi (1.618033988...). This ratio was also suggested by Pythagoras.
Well coming back to symmetry....
A pinacogram is a portrait designed with the letters of the corresponding name.This
pinacogram is the famous pinacogram of Albert Einstein.
You all must be crazy if not then ...........have you ever seen an ambigram?You must have seen it many times and some of you might be an expert in drawing ambigrams...
This is my first ever ambigram.
An ambigram is a word or a group of words which can be read in at least two different ways. The most usual are symmetric under a rotation of 180 degrees (i.e., they look the same upside down) or under a vertical axis reflection (i.e., they look the same in a mirror). The term "ambigram" was coined by Douglas Hofstadter and some of his friends.
The last and the most mathematical symmetrical thing is palindrome.A palindrome is a word, phrase, number or other sequence of units that has the property of reading the same in either direction (the adjustment of punctuation and spaces between words is generally permitted).
So, here comes an end to this amazing world of symmetry...
Here I would like to give you some links for generating ambigrams,palindromes,pinacograms....
1.given any positive integer n, generates the nth positive integer palindrome.
2.See some pinacograms
