Description
Learn a systematic approach to making, flexing, and exploring a vast number of flexagons using paper as well as flexagon software.
Challenge your maths skills through the magical art of paper folding
Flexagons are twisted strips of folded paper which reveal their properties when flexed.
On this course, you’ll learn how to build flexagons ‘bottom-up’ and explore how this approach can significantly increase the number of flexagons that you’re able to build.
You’ll discover a tool created by Scott Sherman which will allow you to make an infinite number of flexagons and explore flexagon diagrams.
You’ll also learn how to create flexagon mazes, meet Ann Schwartz’s mind-boggling straight-strip flexagons, and even learn about Yossi Elran’s art of destroying flexagons.
