Yayy! My first paper circuit kit is now available at:
shop.blinkyparts.com/de/Playfu

This kit contains three of my favorite paper circuit projects: The Spin Art Robot, the Pixel Art Cube and the RGB Touch Cube. This is a perfect kit for kids and parents (age 8+).

Be sure to check it out! @marove only has a first batch of 20 kits!

Two paper cubes on a dark table photographed at a natural perspective. the paper cubes are decorated with simple pixel art: a red heart, a red among us character, a blue whale, 3 different emoticons. all as pixel art 16x16
a colorful picture of 5 paper cubes all iluminated from inside in different colors, like in a rainbow. The paper cubes are attached to a papershet and two hands touch the paper surface indicating that the paper is sensitive to touch changing the color of the paper cubes.
A spinning paper disc sitting ontop of a motor (not visible). the paper disk was painted by hold down a pen, making perfect colorul circles. the disk is painted in orange, red, light green and some black.
Contents of the paper circuit kit spead on a table: A spread of paper sheets containing instructions and templates, three LEDs, a motor, a black sheet (velostat), conductive tape and binder clips.

Intro 5/10
This paper circuit project became my all-time favorite for parent-child workshops. It never fails to amaze kids or parents as the result is just fun to use and the build process is easy and straightforward. The idea is quite simple, and you can also repurpose an old PC fan for it. You can check my workshop instructions here: voltpaperscissors.com/spinartr

Intro 4/10
After my Minecraft Torch paper circuit project, I wanted to invent a circuit that is playful, yet easy to make. The result was this RGB Cube that is controlled by a touch-sensitive paper surface. If you use velostat, a pressure-sensitive variable resistor, you can easily mix any color by varying the amount of pressure. More: voltpaperscissors.com/rgb-touc

Intro 3/10
A few years ago, I first used conductive nylon fabric tape for paper circuitry and was amazed to find that it made much more reliable connections than copper tape. Even the adhesive side is 100% conductive. This discovery was a game changer for me and I started experimenting with paper circuit ideas to teach kids about electronics. The first was this Minecraft-inspired paper torch in various designs.

Three cubic diy paper lamps standing in front of a white wall. the first has all sides of the cube designed in stained glass. in the back (blury) there are three others. a blue cube, a skull-like cube and a candle flame made of paper. all cube lamps sit ontop of a rectangular handle.

Introduction 2/10
When I started Volt, Paper, Scissors! I wanted to create an online project with a clear focus on simple electronics, conductive tape and creative papercrafting. Working within limits is great, but I wanted to see how far I can take this concept. So for my second paper circuit prototype I used a posable paper model of Heisenberg made by the brilliant paper artist @robives I added a glowing flask and some steam.

A posable paper model of Mr White from TV series breaking bad. The model is detailed and very organic. It has a blue glowing flask in his hands showing it close to the camera with the focus of the camera being on the face. The model is well light with a blue tint on the face from the glowing flask.

It has a blue glowing flask in his hands holding it with a straight arm in front of is face. The closeup is a side view showing face, flask and upper body. The model is well light with a blue tint on the face from the glowing flask.

Hi Mastodon👋(1/10)
I'm starting a series of 10 posts to introduce my work to everyone here. Please #retoot 🤗
My first paper circuit project was this anglerfish. I modeled it in Blender, printed templates using Pepakura, and used conductive tape for "wiring". It lights up with an RGB LED and a button cell. This anglerfish still hangs in my room, giving me nightmares 😅. Lots of fun, but also lots of work.
