Starting at the centre with the control characters, spiralling clockwise through the remnants of ASCII, and out across the entirety of the Basic Multi Lingual Plane. Then beyond into the esoteric mysteries of the Higher Planes.    Zoom in for the massiveness. It's a 10,000x10,000px image.  Because…
