One of only two photos on Flickr that came up with the search term “Spacexula”
My friend Spacexula just sent in this AWESOME suggestion on how to display 1000 origami cranes in a durable pleasing way.1 2 I’m going to give you a link to his website and blog, but before you click, know that the top post on his site today is very NSFW.3 Spacexula suggests:
Cast all the cranes into a clear block of resin.
Can be picked up locally for around $20 a gallon.
If you suspend them all on fishing line stringers you could likely fit them all in a single concrete casting tube

I freaking LOVE this idea. The only thing I would need to test first is whether the resin would stick to the cardboard form creating a cloudy cardboard layer on the outside of the resin tower. That said, I love love love this idea and feel quite committed to it already.
