Simon Schubert creates complex scenes in paper using creases
- fosk 15y agoThis is awesome. I wonder which is the process for realizing one of those. How he can make a crease without breaking the others, for example.
- thejbf 15y agoHe would be using tools like solid rulers to press them against paper. And he most probably use water and heat to shape 3d ovals.
- ars 15y agoHe probably doesn't fold the paper. My guess is a mold, or an edge, and he presses the paper against the edge.
- jarin 15y agoIf I had to guess, I'd say a stylus and a straightedge on a soft mat. Draw stuff with the stylus and then flip the paper over.
- alanning 15y agoIf it could be automated, imagine what such a technology would mean to the blind. Printed pictures would no longer be just blank pages... I wonder if something could be done with bump maps [1] and a high-resolution printer by doing multiple passes. 1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bump_map http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bump_map
- biot 15y agoAlas, it doesn't appear there are any M.C. Escher creased pages. I was really hoping to see this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Escher%27s_Relativity.jpg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Escher%27s_Relativity.jpg
- Tichy 15y agoAm I the only one who finds that kind of thing depressing?
- JoeAltmaier 15y agoAgreed. I can only look at it for a few moments, and I want to stop. Fuzzy, grey, depressing scenes. Mostly of hallways receeding or stairways. Blank, soulless, inorganic. If that's what the artist was going for, then they succeeded.
