My friend, Hartosh (I had written previously about his mathematical novel here) and his wife Pam, recently had a baby boy. This ambigram is of his name: Nihal
Enjoy.

Over the past two years in Arizona I have had the opportunity to indulge in my love for photography. Recently I felt the need to play with Adobe Sparks - and what better way to learn a new tool than to use it to create a photo album. Enjoy.
I had been invited to the Second Annual Internationalizing Michigan Education Conference: Building Bridges from Michigan to the World to speak about India. The title of my presentation was Learning about India, the world’s largest democracy. I was assisted in this by...
Last June I had posted a note (Teacher as filmmaker: An update from down under) about the iVideos created by students from the University of Technology, Sydney (under the guidance of Dr. Matthew Kearney). iVideos or "idea videos" are short films often 2 minutes (or...
I have always been interested in how we use words to capture intangibles. For instance wine connoisseurs have developed a specialized language (which sadly is quite opaque to me) to explain to each other characteristics of wine. So the words "fruity" and "dry" have...
For Halloween, my daughter, Shreya's fifth grade class entertained a bunch of first-graders with a spooky music and dance show. A news reporter was there and her photo (Shreya's not the news reporter's) ended up on the cover of The Towne Courier, the local community...
Does it matter whether a brownie is served on a paper plate or on china? Is the Patagonian Toothfish less tasty than the Chilean Bass? In an earlier posting (perception of taste) I had cited research showing that wine with an expensive price tag was judged to be...
Over the past few years my scholarly focus has shifted into areas related to teacher creativity and transdisciplinary learning. I see this as being the next step in my research work. Though I have been thinking quite a bit about this, have applied to to my teaching...
Here is the next article in our series Rethinking Technology & Creativity in the 21st Century for the journal TechTrends. In this article we feature an interview with Dr. Charles Limb, professor of Otolaryngology and a...
Steven Jobs famously said, Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn't really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while. That's because they were...
Hello. A friend at work and his wife just had a baby boy and his name is Nihal. Would it be alright if I copied your ambigram for a name wall art to give them as a gift?
Of course. Congratulations to your friend and family. Let me know if you need a higher resolution version.
Do one which reads pinky upside down…that would be funny, though unfair. Here’s another idea: do pamtosh which reads nihal upside down.
oh, i like this, but as a challenge, shouldn’t the ambigram be in the original script that the name belongs to? 😉
Well, I don’t know Gurmukhi 🙂

i REALLY like this one
