Google Patterns

Here’s a little geeky web pastime. The object is to go to Google Image Search and find words that result in a full page of pleasing patterns of some kind. I found these for ‘colourwheel’…
…’lemon’…
…and ‘fern’.
Have fun! Report back with your best efforts!
Wow! “Porn” worked on my first try!
Big fan of your lemon search, btw…
I like the colorwheel, but that lemon search seems kind of old fashioned.
Interesting how this is also an evolving art experience. ‘Radish‘ used to be good a few months back, as did ‘checkerboard‘ but they have both change enough to make the image pattern not as aesthetically pleasing.
But then again, maybe they’ll change back…
I aint sure I got th right “aesthetick sense,” but I think I got sompm similar when lookin fer pitchrs o green bell pepprs (sorta like th lemon pattrn), an prhaps also when I lookd fer pitchrs relatin to th Zodiac.
I think you’ve got exactly the right aesthetick sense.

Howdy Omni! Thanks for dropping by! Nice effort – in the Polanski mode, no less!
This is fantastic and I will start doing this immediately. I shall report my results.
Jill: Excellent! Let us know your favourites.
