I like your concept, but zoomed out the layout kinda reminds me of a swastika with more arms.

Ha! I was going for spiral galaxy, but now you've got me wondering about all those job applications that I never heard back from!

FWIW the engine (https://github.com/dougkoellmer/swarm) that runs the website doesn't care what the layout of the cells are. For example here's a prototype textbook reader: http://eagrereader.appspot.com/

Yeah the accidental swastika needs to go. Even though everyone knows it's not a swastika, the emotional reference is formed before logic takes over.

The emotional reference needs to go. Swastikas were around long before nazis and they'll be around long after. It's a pretty fundamental shape.

I totally thought it was going to be a swastika before I got zoomed out all the way
