my name is Alan Cernak, and my project is to create
giant, viewer-interactive origami I have dubbed Ugoki-Gami ("moving paper"). I was recently accepted to a residency at Studio Kura in
Fukuoka, Japan, and I am excited to share this new take on traditional origami ("folding-paper") with the place where origami originated.
as incentives for my project backers I am offering everything from
Skype Japanese lessons to
poster prints of my and my daughter's anime- and Japan-themed artwork (examples at rain-and-sunshine.deviantart.com/gallery and artwrkx.deviantart.com) to versions of the
Ugoki-Gami itself, both small ("desktop" size) and giant.
I am new to kickstarter and crowdfunding, and am open to any suggestions on how best to spread the word or any changes to my page that might help my project grow.
Thank you for looking!
