Re: [Origami] CFC October’s Challenge - The Eight-Grid Multi-Form - Win 100 USD!

Hello Ilan,
 
Forgive me, but I am a little unclear about what you are looking for. The model starts with folding an 8x8 grid, plus the diagonals, but then …. the finished model uses all of the ceases? Some of the creases? Also has other creases? Uses only all (or some) of the creases?
 
Thank you,
Mike Naughton

Dear fellow Folders, 

The CFC is running a monthly challenge, and we invite all folders and creators to participate actively!

 

October's Challenge - Win 100 USD!

Our next challenge is called The Eight-Grid Multi-Form!


And this time, we have a sponsor who wishes to boost your creativity with a motivational prize of one hundred USD for each of the two categories: figurative and abstract.


Apparently, this crease pattern (attached) is a great starting point for many models that are easy to fold, and hence easy to teach. At least two creators are using it for teaching purposes: Vincent Floderer, who also produces pre-cut sheets of paper for teaching, and Cliff Landesman, who runs a parallel project, as shown on this site. Cliff is also our sponsor and will be the judge of this challenge. His vote will get 50% of the final score, while the visitors' votes will have the rest.


The rules are simple. 

  • Create a new model.
  • The starting point must be a grid of 8, plus the diagonals (see attached CP).
  • You must submit diagrams and/or a video tutorial.
  • You must agree to share this model for any non-profit teaching activities.

Please note that a teachable model will get bonus points!
