<div>Most people, at this point, are familiar with the simple blue bird log=
o that has become synonymous with Twitter. On Saturday, Elon Musk announced=
 plans to rebrand Twitter as "X," and with that, he has also changed the si=
te's logo to a black and white "X."</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><=

rote in the thread that they had been given "essentially no brief" and were=
 asked to create a new bird (the site's previous logo had been a similar de=
sign, but with a tuft of hair at the top).</div><div></div><div></div><div>=
He said he realized the impact of his design when he made the thread on Sun=
day and received over 10 million impressions. So many users who had apparen=
tly passively admired the logo for years suddenly came out to thank Grasser=
. He compared the effect to seeing a tree on the corner of a street.</div><=
div></div><div></div><div>Musk found Twitter's current X logo after posting=
 a tweet soliciting design suggestions. He chose a design suggested by Sawy=
er Merritt, a co-founder of a clothing company, who said the logo was origi=
nally created by the user  ajtourville for a now-defunct podcast the two ha=
d made together. Musk celebrated the new design with a post on Monday showi=
ng it projected across Twitter's headquarters in San Francisco.</div><div><=
/div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>As the cha=
nge settles in, users have widely ridiculed both Twitter's identity change =
and the new logo. Many called the design uninspiring and nearly identical t=
o the generic symbol for X in Unicode, or the global computing standard tha=
t makes symbols and numeric values consistent across languages.</div><div><=
/div><div></div><div>The graphic designer Anna Dillon juxtaposed Grasser's =
logo with the new X and wrote: "The twitter bird logo/brand presented a kin=
d, welcoming, open, light-hearted community. I think this new logo/brand is=
 dark & sinister, overtly masculine, unwelcoming and threatening, not to me=
ntion rather self-obsessed."</div><div></div><div></div><div>Even though it=
 might not be Twitter's moniker anymore, Grasser said he's proud the logo l=
asted this long and has become a universal symbol for a bird. He hopes it'l=
l live on in digital culture and bring people joy and nostalgia when they s=
ee it in the future.</div><div></div><div></div><div>The internet is abuzz =
as the app formerly known as Twitter announced a name change last week. X.c=
om now redirects to Twitter.com; the company's headquarters now sports a fl=
ashing X where there was once was a bird logo, and the app now appears as "=
X" in the Apple and Google app stores.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Musk=
 regained ownership of X.com six years ago. He formally changed Twitter's l=
egal name to X Corp in April. Over the weekend, X.com was redirected to Twi=
tter.com, and on Monday a crane began to remove Twitter's iconic bird logo =
from the company's San Francisco headquarters. However, police stopped the =
work soon after it began.</div><div></div><div></div><div>This removes the =
twitter icon (though it may not show correctly in the preview, it should no=
w be missing from your front of site). You can now go back to Settings >> S=
haring and disconnect Twitter from Publicize.</div><div></div><div></div><d=
iv>Recently appointed-CEO Linda Yaccarino also tweeted out a picture of the=
 new logo, although it's already been confirmed that it is highly likely to=
 be altered at a later date, and will almost certainly be refined.</div><di=
v></div><div></div><div>The logo now appears instead of the recognizable bl=
ue bird when users load up Twitter on their desktops, although it is yet to=
 change on the App and Android Play stores at the time of writing, as well =
as the Twitter app itself.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Interestingly en=
ough, Simon Oxley himself did not even know that such a promising company c=
hose his picture until he was told about it by a friend. However, as far as=
 businesses are not allowed to turn iStock icons into their official logos =
without any changes, Twitter had to redesign the bird completely.</div><div=
></div><div></div><div>The Twitter logo, simple as it may seem at first gla=
nce, has a very interesting geometry behind it. In fact, the picture is bui=
lt up of parts of perfect circles. This means, that every part of the bird =
can be defined with the help of portions of circular arcs (one or two circl=
es). If we compare the 2012 logo with the previous one, we will see that th=
is was not true for the earlier version. Although there were quite a few ci=
rcular arcs, some of the curves did not match up.</div><div></div><div></di=
v><div></div><div>Of course that is in no way an innovative approach. It ha=
s already been used in several very popular logos, including those of Apple=
, Pepsi-Cola (an older version), and iCloud.</div><div></div><div></div><di=
v>One more artistic concept the Twitter logo relies upon is the golden rati=
o. The proportions of the smaller and the bigger circles are rather close t=
o the golden ratio, and there is every possibility that these proportions w=
ere chosen by the designers intentionally.</div><div></div><div></div><div>=
What is the bird from the Twitter logo?</div><div></div><div>The bird, depi=
cted in the Twitter logo, looks pretty much the same as the mountain bluebi=
rd, which can be found in North America. The bird represents freedom and cr=
eativity, reflecting the essence of the brand and its character.</div><div>=
