“()()” is an ambigram, which wikipedia describes as “visual palindromes”, for whatever that’s worth.
WIKIPEDIA CAN SHOW GIFS?!
I love that the word ambigram can be made to look as an ambigram whereas palindrome - wtf, could have done so much better with naming that guys.

Well that’s just mean.
It looks very weird, but if you put it like abab vs abba, it makes more sense
bdbd is not a palindrome but bddb is
I hate it

Why would you do this to me 😭
A palindrome is about symbols. Not the visual representation of those symbols.
I don’t know what a palindrome is, it looks like iam better off this way.
A word, number or string that can be read the same backwards and forwards. Like 2112, 11/11/11, “A Toyotas a Toyota”, “Was it a cat I saw?”.
It’s curious, but in my mind these types of mathematical or logical visualizations are the sheep I count, trying to sense the deeper flow and patterns where the emergent oddities even out.
That’s when I know I will soon fall fast asleep, when my mind starts getting abstract.
