That thing they have in Mercedes and Volvos that tells when you're getting tired and tells you to pull over? I need that for my computer.

Computational Origami

Erik and Martin Demaine are a father-son team exploring the mathematical mysteries in folded paper. When circular sheets are crinkled along concentric circumferences, it results in exotic projections like the ones seen above. 

This is a form of paper art that has been explored since the 1920’s, but the Demaines are using modern computation to unravel the complex algorithms behind the shapes. Starting with different curvatures and rotations in flat paper, they don’t always know what will come out the other end.

More of their curved-crease sculpture here, and their book.

The Tissue Series are a collection of anatomical cross sections using quilled paper, created by Lisa Nilsson

Today’s theme is turning into paper-based science art, it looks like. First it’s computational origami, now it’s anatomy lessons via quilled paper.

I’m ok with that.

More at Lisa Nilsson’s website.
