3D Free-Fold

2022—2024

These free-folds have been virtualized through photogrammetry. The scanned pieces often consist of multiple sheets of paper. When converted into digital form, these sheets unify, transforming the structure into a hollow solid. Capturing these models is challenging due to the thinness of paper, which can confuse the software’s image-stitching process.
By virtualizing select free-folds, they can be converted into augmented reality filters that scale them beyond their physical dimensions. In addition, the models can also be 3D printed, further transmuting the form. These models can also be uploaded into a game engine, bringing objects that have never physically existed into virtual space—essentially uploading “garbage” into the digital world
