About our jumbotron pattern

An aperiodic monotile, commonly known as an ‘einstein,’ is a shape capable of tiling the plane exclusively in a non-periodic manner. Our jumbotron pattern features the first true aperiodic monotile—a shape that naturally enforces aperiodicity through its own geometry, without the need for additional constraints such as matching conditions.

The pattern incorporates a polykite, referred to as ‘hats,’ developed through multiple rounds of substitution. This work is based on the scientific contributions of David Smith, Joseph Samuel Myers, Craig S. Kaplan, and Chaim Goodman-Strauss.
