Truchet Tile Reveal

Build the word [TEXT] from a square grid of Truchet tiles. Each tile carries two quarter-circle arcs on opposite corners, so neighboring tiles join into endless meandering navy lines on warm cream paper with a fine grain. Diagonal waves sweep across the grid: every tile the wave touches spins 90° with a springy overshoot. When tiles inside the letters of [TEXT] spin, they switch to a bold version of the same tile, fat tomato-red arcs on a golden-yellow ground that join into thick ribbons, so the word fills in wave by wave, edged by a crisp navy outline and a small offset shadow in a heavy grotesque sans. Random tiles keep flipping during the hold; a second wave turns the word back into lines and the 8-second loop repeats.
