His twitter has a daily production video log showing the process. Mesmerizing.

And some longer form videos on YouTube as well like this one "Making PS2" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iUCpJwhSivc

These objects could literally earn millions as pieces of art. All they would need is a gifted agent to chat up the galleries.

I genuinely don’t understand how this is possible.

If I didn’t know what these were, I’d say they were just black and white photos of a Big Mac and shoe.

How on earth does one cut the letters out so small? Any links would be most appreciated!

EDIT: Seems like they post on X. heres a video with some letters being cut out. Its pretty much as you would expect, but with some serious competence! https://x.com/coca1127/status/2088029745221128308

As I started to browse the gallery, my thinking was that he uses some kind of paper compression technique. But, no, apparently everything is cut out and iteratively stacked and fused almost like 3D printing by hand. The results are something to marvel at.

Instantly reminded me of this ridiculousness: https://www.odditycentral.com/news/designer-spends-9-years-b... his yt: https://www.youtube.com/user/lucaiaconistewart

This guy gets serious bonus points for all the typography incorporated into the objects. Even if he didn’t include it the amount of detail is amazing.

There is something genuinely stirring about what humanity builds when looking up to technology, be it a symbolic creation or a feat of engineering. I am deeply fond of these paper gears.

Like something straight out of the old internet. Beautiful work.
