%N A fractal spiral on a 2D square lattice, one digit per cell, starting at the origin with 0. The odd digits reproduce the spiral itself at another scale (design of the digits is shown below).

%C Here's the font that's used; digits are separated horizontally by a single empty column and vertically by a single empty row. The same digit design was selected 52 years ago by _Jonathan Vos Post_.

%C The spiral's elements are the successive digits of the sequence. The sequence is the lexicographically earliest one of distinct nonnegative terms that starts exactly in the center of the zero formed by the first 12 odd digits (see below).
