Origami_ch_h5. The Fitful Flog. Curved-Crease Sculpture by Erik and Martin Demaine. When folded along curved creases, paper shapes itself into a natural equilibrium form.

Curved-Crease Sculpture by Erik and Martin Demaine

These equilibria are poorly understood, especially for curved creases. We are exploring what shapes are possible in this genre of self-folding origami, with applications to deployable structures, manufacturing, and self-assembly. This transformation of flat paper into swirling surfaces creates sculpture that feels alive. Goran Konjevod: Organic Origami. Origami Tessellations.
