3∗3 p31m
Third turns with mirrors through only some of the centres — the family where two threefold points of one picture behave differently under the colour law. The catalog holds 35 saved fields under a p31m film group, read 149 different ways: 16 where the operation s is itself a spacetime symmetry of the wave — so s and the half-period wait are two names for one antisymmetry — 118 where s is free, and 15 plain thresholds to compare them with. Separately measured: 107 of the 149 exchange the two inks after half a period exactly.
1 · The film group
Each tile is a p31m film group — the same wallpaper group with a different assignment of time shifts to its operations — and counts the distinct pictures the catalog holds under it. A field filed under more than one film group appears under each.
