Students learned about the design principle of visual rhythm, then designed their own patterns, which were applied to a sheet of paper. The paper was then folded and glued into this three-dimensional, geometric form.
It looks great! The wall art is cheap, simple and different. All you need is multi-colored origami paper folded and attached with glue or double sided tape to foam board.
This inset of a macro recumbant fold is from Bermagui in NSW. The structural geology is complex and amazing here. This photo is approx. 10cm long. A recumbant fold is a fold with near-horizontal axial surface (which is the plane that divides the fold in half symmetrically). This region has had at least five deformations I believe and is a fascinating area to investigate structurally.
Baguley Fold Junction signal box to the east of bridge 8 (Ten Acres Lane) in Manchester at the end of the four track section from Miles Platting railway station. Saturday 9th November 1985
Baguley Fold Junction signal box was a Railway Signal Company Standard Limited standard design opened in 1890 fitted with a 28 lever Railway Signal Company Limited frame for the Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway Company. In 1903 the signal box was extended at the non steps end to accommodate a replacement 48 lever Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway Company Tappet frame probably in connection with the construction of sidings to feed the private branch line to the new Stuart Street power station. The lever frame was reduced to 32 levers in 1973 and was replaced by a Tew Engineering Limited SM48 individual function switch panel commissioned on 15th September 1998. The signal box closed and was replaced by signalling controlled from the Manchester Rail Operating Centre’s Manchester North workstation on 2nd June 2022

In celebration of Earth Day, I've folded Shuzo Fujimoto's Clover Folding, and, for the first time, I did it with five stages.
The precreasing was a pain, but the end result looks wonderful! Soon, I'll be sure to try to add even more layers, and eventually fold maybe even an 11 stage model.
This really is a beautiful origami tessellation, and it resembles a nice flower. Well, sort of.
Wow, I haven't uploaded anything since early December...
Townsend Fold signal box on the Down side of the line by Holme Lane level crossing at Rawtenstall. Saturday 25th September 1982
Townsend Fold signal box is a British Railways London Midland Region type 15 design fitted with a 10 lever London Midland Region Standard frame that opened as a non block post controlling the adjacent level crossing on 29th March 1959, replacing an 1878 built 22 lever Saxby & Farmer type 9 design signal box located on the opposite side of the line. The signal box was operated by a travelling gatekeeper from 5th June 1972 until 5th December 1980 when traffic ceased. The line between Heywood Ground Frame and Rawtenstall was officially closed on 8th April 1981 although a series of specials were operated on 28th March 1982. Ownership passed to the East Lancashire Railway who reopened it as a non block post on 29th March 1991 and renamed it Townsend Fold Level Crossing in 2003
The signal box carries a British Railways London Midland Region maroon enamel nameplate

I hope you like it! :-))
Reflections in the windows of a modern Tulane University building in New Orleans, LA; the building is constructed with accordion-like folds, and is the source of monochrome abstracts posted previously to my photostream.
(Because I could, that's why!)
I believe the shutter/lens came from a Kodak No. 2 Folding Autographic Brownie camera. The No. 2 was made from 1915 to 1926, but only with this shutter/lens combo to 1923, so the lens is 89-97 years old.
I'll make a better adapter out of a body cap later - this one uses an M42 adapter, some foam core board, and duct tape. Focusing is done with the macro bellows. Minimum focus is about two feet (might be less, if I add macro tubes onto the bellows).
The Kodak Ball Bearing Shutter still works (three speeds! 1/25, 1/50, and 1/100), but requires a tripod to do all the necessary steps (open the Kodak shutter, meter for chosen speed, focus, close Kodak shutter, set aperture, select Kodak shutter speed, trip camera shutter with a looong exposure, trip Kodak shutter). It's easier to just set the Kodak shutter open ("T" mode) and use the camera's shutter - that allows handheld shooting.
I held a series of three sessions at KPF NY demonstrating severals ways to transform a flat single sheet of paper into a complex form. I demonstrated folds that used both standard origami techniques (square paper, no cutting) and more modern approaches (laser-cut and -scored curves). The square forms date back to the Bauhaus movement and I was inspired by the work I did for Erik and Marty Demaine when choosing the shapes of the curved forms. Special thanks also to Alex Soijka who helped with the video.
Folding camera for roll film size 127 , made in USA from 1927-1934 . Similar to the (early) Kodak Vest Pocket Model B camera , but without the autographic feature . For placing of the film , the front panel can be removed by pressing the concealed buttons on the side of the camera . Later models have a sliding latch on the front .

Folded from a 60cm square of copper coloured shadow fold paper - without glue or cuts.
This is the first model I've folded from Kato's beautiful new book - Origami Nature Study - and it has been a great introduction to his style of design.
Even though there were 256 steps to complete, I found it just took time and wasn't as difficult as I was expecting - as there was plenty of clarification.
I particularly like the way that Shuki Kato shapes the heads of his models and this is definitely one of my favourites. He certainly puts a lot of effort into carefully choosing the perfect distributing of flaps to produce what he has in mind. I also found his instructions for shaping the legs to be particularly easy to follow - usually I have far more difficulty in trying to make limbs look realistic - here the proportions are just right.
Sadly, I wasn't completely satisfied with the paper, as it seemed to wear out pretty quickly (and the shiny side lost its colour in parts) whilst I was folding. However, it was still extremely thin and therefore, very suitable for the model.
Without a doubt, I am looking forward to folding more of Kato's wonderful designs and I find his work inspirational. I would definitely recommend this book to any experienced folder.
Whenever I redo a doll's hair I always replace the entire back hairline of the head first and work my way forwards & up, which gives your unfortunate Barbie the Larry Fine look when you're halfway through, but it helps you keep everything nice and even, and it also makes it easier to arrange parts in the hair (which was not the case here, but I thought I'd mention it).
I'm going as a hunkin' big Kanzashi Flower for Halloween this year. I made the orange/yellow petals and green leaves from a dyed bedsheet. It's so big, I had to use some white glue to stiffen the fabric so it wouldn't flop off me while dancing. The whole thing is attached to my with some elastic around the waist.
I'm gonna be the happiest flower at the Halloween parade. Thanks Diane, love your book!!
