Mathemagical Ambigrams
Mathemagical Ambigrams Burkard Polster* Abstract Ambigrams are calligraphic designs that have several interpretations as written words. In this concise introduction to ambigrams we focus on the mathematical aspects of ambigrams and ambigram design. 1. Introduction This essay has been written with a special audience in mind. You belong to this audi- ence if you are, just like me and many other mathematicians, fascinated by Escher’s drawings, puzzles, wordplay, and illusions. If you belong to this category, then it is almost certain that you will also like ambigrams. Furthermore, you also will not need to be told why it is that ambigrams are fun, you almost certainly would appreciate to see your name and those of other persons and things close to your heart ambi- grammed, and may even want to know how to construct ambigrams yourself. What we will concentrate on in the following is to summarise some basic in- formation about ambigrams that will appeal especially to minds that are wired in a mathematical way. We do this by playing some typical games that mathematicians like to play. For example, for many of us mathematics is the study of symmetry in one form or another. Therefore, a mathematically minded ambigrammist will want to see everybody’s favourite mathematical terms turned into beautiful calligraphic de- signs displaying unusual geometric symmetries. Or what about constructing magic squares and other mathematical puzzles that incorporate an additional ambigrammatic dimension? Or, more generally, what about fusing ambigrams with other worlds of ambiguity and wordplay, by constructing appropriate ambigrammatic captions to Escher’s drawings, creating an ambigram of the word ambigram, or an ambigram of a palindrome? 2. -

Amazing Words, Lederer Puts on Yet Another Dazzling Display, Elucidating the Wondrous Stories and Secrets That Lie Hidden in the Language
“Is there anyone alive who has more fun with words than Richard Lederer? In dozens of books, from Crazy English to The Word Circus, he has continually entertained and amazed us with his boundless knowledge of and enthusiasm for all things linguistic. Now, in Amazing Words, Lederer puts on yet another dazzling display, elucidating the wondrous stories and secrets that lie hidden in the language. There’s an ooh! and an ah! and a hearty ha-ha-ha! on every page.” —Charles Harrington Elster, author of The Accidents of Style “Richard Lederer has outdone Richard Lederer. Amazing Words is clever, compelling, and totally captivating. This book is for anyone and everyone who loves the English language. It is one of a dozen books I would select to take along if I were exiled to a desert island.” —Paul Dickson, author of Words “This is not simply a book about Amazing Words, it is also an amazing book about words—and one that could have only been written by the inimitable Richard Lederer. Enjoy, word lovers, enjoy!” —Dr. Mardy Grothe, author of I Never Metaphor I Didn’t Like “Amazing Words is chock full of constant surprise. Each entry is a font of delight and knowledge. I had to keep reading because I unfailingly wanted to see how the next word would bedazzle, beguile, and bewitch me.” 2 —Caroline McCullagh, author of American Trivia “Every page instructs, delights, and entrances readers—often all at once.” —Rod L. Evans, author of Tyrannosaurus Lex “Words are wonderfully interesting, yes, but only Richard Lederer makes them amazing.” —Robert Hartwell Fiske, editor of The Vocabula Review and author of The Best Words “Richard Lederer’s Amazing Words is amazing indeed. -

Abstract The subconscious includes all mental events that stay out of conscious perception and have no potential to access to the level of conscious. In our present day, the conscious is one of the objects where the advertisers often use it to make hidden inducements in order to influence the behaviors of the consumers and where the desire to buy a product is created, placed in it to best market and publicize their own trademarks and products. When the consumer wants to buy a product, it is necessary that the product for which advertisement is made in the mind emerge. And, this makes us question the necessity of the visual perception management in the human brain. In daily life, thousands of information, pictures and sounds go to the memory on a daily basis, and the human brain recalls them if only they are necessary. -
