I think the researchers used some computer programs to produce patches of tiles procedurally in the paper. Research paper is here free if you want to investigate: https://arxiv.org/abs/2303.10798
Eh, perhaps you are right to some extent about not being oniony enough (it’s my first post to the sub). But this is the first time a plane can be tiled aperiodically with a SINGLE tile. I’ve seen Veritasium’s video a while ago.

Exactly. The research paper goes into this concept actually with larger tiles made with the original tile: https://arxiv.org/abs/2303.10798
