Hey, very cool!  I bet it will be quite a conversation piece and unlikely 
to get tossed in the trash.

I like the symmetry of the piece as a whole.  It reminds me of an ambigram 
( http://www.ambigram.com/ - the Evermore Design Shop logo is one of these, 
the same when rotated 180 degrees.)  I guess that is kind of an 
Escher-esque thing, too.  I have occasionally thought of trying to make an 
OA ambigram.

How are you producing your cards?  Are you having them 
die-cut?  Lasercut?  By hand?  Are you using adhesive to hold the backing 
in place or just relying on the folds?

Professor Chatani uses his Noh Mask design, in plain white, as a business 
card.  He says they are inexpensive to die cut (a few straight lines) and 
he can carry them around flat and fold them for people when he presents them.
