Imagine a piece of tissue paper.

Coat it with cyanotype chemicals.

Fold it into an origami crane.

Let it be a crane for a while, in any place with a bit of light. Ignore it, play with it, whatever.

After a while, unfold it. Develop.

You'll get an image.

The image is the memory of it's experience as an origami crane.

Repeat. Every crane's experience - and hence every image - will be unique.

Here's 4 out of the >750 I've made so far.

@cyanotype this is brilliant! I was recently mulling over whether or not I want to buy cyanotype paper and now I’m sold :)
@anu1905 If you can, I would recommend getting the chemicals and coating paper yourself. It ends up sooo much cheaper, you can coat any paper you like, the results are better, and it's more fun!
Having said that, any cyanotype is better than no cyanotype!
@cyanotype I’ll try! thanks for the tip :)
