Abstract
We introduce a versatile method for finding prime numbers that display surprisingly intricate visual patterns—
hypothetically, any desired pattern is possible, with only mild distortion. We use this method to locate several
examples of large prime numbers that are, in and of themselves, self-referential works of art.
