Re: [tg] a new concept idea: Swap

[Kathy Godfrey <kathy godfrey gmail com>]

Another possibility for DESIGNATOR1 and DESIGNATOR2 is to use the acronyms of direction abbreviations

that happen to be English words:  NEWS for DESIGNATOR1 (starting at the NorthEast) and SEWN for DESIGNATOR2

(starting at the SouthEast).

I'll note in passing that Example 7 is Mirror Beep Beep.

Is #3 facing the wrong way at the end of Example 16?

As for the DESIGNATORs, one nerdly thought is that the DESIGNATOR1s are in the odd/same sign quadrants on an x/y graph,

and the DESIGNATOR2s are in the even/different sign quadrants, taking the x-y origin as the center of the 2x2 box.

I'm not sure how evocative Odd Quad(der)s or Even Quad(ders) would be, though :-).

Hi everyone,

CJ and I have been spending a lot of time recently thinking about an idea for a new concept, called Swap.

The current draft of the paper can be found here: https://tck.mn/squares/swap.pdf

I am very curious to hear your thoughts and feedback!

Happy Thanksgiving!
