As part of the Saint Paul River Balcony Prototyping Festival we created an outdoor, interactive origami station. Hundreds of people contributed to our community-driven ‘living flyway’ installation and learned about several of the bird species that migrate along the Mississippi River via friendly, zoo-style info posters.
- Instructions/Iconography
- Audubon Research
- Origami!

The City of Saint Paul was creating new public space and wanted to celebrate all of the ways it could possibly be used. For one day the sidewalks, plazas, and parks spaces were filled with temporary art, culture, education, and inspiration installations.
