The title says it all, try and find it!

Not sure about the tags, don't really want to spoil it too much...

I will add hints if required :)

P.S. Gray is just a frame

    $\begingroup$ Hold back with hints, you don't want to spoil it. Wait at least until you're asked for one, or for 2 - 3 days of non-action. If you think one can get to a unambiguous answer with the information given, just wait. If not, ensure that the needed information is in the puzzle right from the start - it would be essential not a hint. See also here and here $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ Hmm, rotating the image 90 degrees I have the feeling I could nearly read the white as text. But just quite... The last bit would be N 11 ?? $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ If you look at the repeating patterns, you can think of the grid as 18 cells, 3 high by 6 wide each. Here's what it looks like if you remove the common squares from each: i.imgur.com/Xe7WBcU.png (forgive the rough editing). Notably it leaves you with 8 "unique" squares per cell, which could suggest a binary encoding, but I can't find a way to map it to ASCII that makes sense. $\endgroup$ Jul 22, 2016 at 15:11

    $\begingroup$ Here's the grid broken into 3x6 cells without removing anything, if it's helpful: i.imgur.com/XWa2TGL.png. $\endgroup$ Jul 22, 2016 at 15:25

It's braille numbers!

#76#78#76 #44#32#86 #71#39#70 #32#83#69 #86#81#78 #76#33#33

that's ASCII (or unicode)

LNL, VG'F SEVQNL!!

YAY, IT'S FRIDAY!!

the comment that the rows and columns should not be rearranged helped a lot.
