This Book Is Also a Functional Camera

(Photo: Kelli Anderson)

Kelli Anderson is highly skilled at making functional machines from paper. In the past, we've seen her paper record player. Her latest project is called This Book Is a Camera. That's because it is.

The camera takes the form of a pop-up book. Inside is an unfolding camera, 5 sheets of film, and a lightproof bag to develop them in. Just follow the instructions to take clear black-and-white photos using just the contents of the book.

One of the physicists at the Manhattan Project built one of these - for the life of me I can't remember which one, though. Could have been Feynman - I'll have to dig out my Project Orion book where I read it.
