Doing Origami with plastic for Testa Studio. Lighter and more efficient structure. Informal fabrication on site with unskilled labor (even though I'm so proud that I completed the model without giving it up...) We give sheets of plastic strength and intelligence to perform as structure. Automorphism is a critical concept for our proposal, where each components perform differently depending on the neighbors. The completed structure is in tension and if I cut one of their arms, entire unit blasts open.
