I converted a text message into a knight's tour. To decode it, follow the knight's tour, starting in the top left corner. The knight will traverse a succession of 11x11 tours, and each of these 11x11 tours corresponds to a letter. The message is a quote from Ursula K. Le Guin.

"Spiraling to keep myself from spiraling." An open knight's tour of a 99x99 chess board. The tour can be thought of as a tour of 11x11 tours, and it can be extended indefinitely to form an infinite Hamiltonian path through the infinite knight graph.

A tour of tours, an open knight’s tour of a 99x99 chessboard. The tour starts in the bottom left corner and ends near the top right after winding its way through a 9x9 array of 11x11 tours, visiting them in the same order as would a stage-3 Peano curve.

Two knight's tours (32x32 and 64x64). Two terms of an infinite sequence of tours.

Here's a preview of my @DavidsonCollege honors student's (inspired by @baabbaash work) lenticular dice mosaic of Katherine Johnson & Maryam Mirzakhani. Our piece will hang next month on Mercer Island in a math & art exhibit hosted by the Seattle Universal Math Museum (SUMM).

An open knight’s tour of a 33x33 board, and an open knight’s tour of a 99x99 board. Each one uses the same 11x11 tour as a motif, and each one follows a Peano-curve-like path through its array of 11x11 cells. Some #optart for #genuary19 (#opart).
