Squint a little bit.An origami version of the blivet, folded from one sheet of 8.5" square computer paper. The model is affixed (with tape =/) to a sheet of white computer paper to eliminate the model's edges in select areas. This was made possible by adjusting the lighting and using a crappy camera. Other than cropping, nothing was done to these pictures.Three shots are shown: the intended perspective, view from a reverse angle, and the intended perspective again with different colored base.The blivet idea was first given by , at which I first dismissed as a joke, but ended up holding at the back of my mind. I one day decided to do a quick Google search to see if any real world models could recreate the blivet illusion. I found this: [link] . As it turns out, breaking the laws of physics was not as hard as I had thought and I decided to give this shape design a try.Design-wise, this shape was tricky to get the proportions correct. It pretty much consisted of creating a prototype -> draw a crease pattern -> fold it -> make tweaks to crease pattern -> fold it again -> make more tweaks -> etc... Even after geting something that would work, the darn model does not like to hold its shape; it's actually under a bit of tension. Unfortunately this means it was hard to get a totally unwrinkled look (Not my cleanest work). Also, due to the tension, some *ahem* adhesives were required to affix it to its base and complete the illusion. Computer paper was used due to its consistent color and texture. Its white color was ideal for creating shadows in the right spots to make the illusion work.Crease pattern may be found here: [link]
