Replication

Replication, also known as Tiling is the process of having multiple copies of the same footage on screen at once, usually in a grid format.

Replication done with CC RepeTile in After Effects.

Pinwheels

A pinwheel is a replication where everything shifts to its side, creating a "pinwheel" effect. This can be combined with Recursion to make very cool sequences.
