A Flock of Birds: bringing paper to life

Published: 19 February 2012 Publication History

Abstract

In this paper we describe A Flock of Birds, an interactive, robotic origami art installation. The art installation explores folding paper as a fusion of input, output and computation while simultaneously providing its audience with a fun and exciting experience.
