Pdf version: Kokopelli_Flash More on research and process can be found here: https://oss.adm.ntu.edu.sg/am0002in/project-2-kokopelli/ https://oss.adm.ntu.edu.sg/jchen043/002-kokopellis-sound-shaper/

Fantastic photography (and model ;) and detailed origami-folding sketches... I think it would be great if you could briefly explain or relate your choice of material to the 3 KEY sound lexicon & perhaps the perspective image of Kokopelli could actually be Amanda instead of a generic Kokopelli? Since she already appears throughout the presentation? The generic Kokopelli looks rather incongruent in comparison ... (TT;)

Hi Cheryl, thanks for your feedback! We have changed and edited it!! Please see^

What is Kokopelli?

A fertility deity originating from Hohokam, Yumam, and ancestral Pueblo tribes. Often depicted as a humpbacked flute player, there is a myth that he can be seen on the full, waning moon.

Thanks Sihui for the diverse avalanche of HIP & MOUTH video sources;) Thanks for covering the frog & human hearing research as well although I do recall asking for similarities between the two... To be honest, I cannot quite tell the difference between your 2 initial attempts at making the unpleasant & pleasant sound fabric... the folding for the stairwell echoes seems more structured than that for the pebble sound..?

@ Jiaying

Who is Kokopelli?

Kokopelli is a fertility deity.  Like most fertility deities, he presides over both childbirth and agriculture. He is  usually depicted as a humpbacked flute player. Kokopelli’s flute is said to be heard in the spring’s breeze, while bringing warmth. It is also said that he was the source of human conception. Legend has it, Read more →

Some good solid research Jiaying!:) Would have been great if some of the Range of Motion spine diagrams were incorporated in your final pair Kokopelli layout.

Great storyline & detailed photography going on here girls! Including the 3 KEY sound lexicon & explaining how they relate to the final choice of materials... as well as the perspective sketch of Kokopelli making his way through the dark woods would make a more complete presentation.
