Unfolding the Mystery of Curved-Crease Sculpture with Origami Theorists from MIT
- Continue creating paper sculptures to explore the mathematics and geometry of sheet folding, aiming to derive new mathematical problems from artistic endeavors and vice versa.
- Maintain a fluid workflow where two or three projects may shift daily or hourly, with the flexibility to transition between tasks if specific projects become stalled.
- Execute 3D design work with a significant degree of improvisation, acknowledging the inability to predict exact outcomes when moving into three dimensions.
- Develop dissection-based mathematics problems and design sculptures intended to be appreciated as physical objects rather than merely digital images.
- Engineer specific curve-crease and twisting/weaving sculptures to provoke viewer curiosity regarding their construction methods and material composition, potentially making the structural logic impossible to decipher.
- Integrate unsolved mathematical research problems within the work, expecting that the resulting puzzles and discoveries will guide future research directions.
- Anticipate that viewers will engage with the work by counting constituent pieces or exploring hidden mathematical challenges embedded in the text and designs.
- Expect that the ongoing exploration of unknown areas and new puzzles will continuously generate wonder regarding future projects and potential discoveries.
