When I was little I loved putting together models. Lately I have been researching the latest japanese trend of assembling paper models. Unlike Origami, paper models require lots of cutting and glue. But you can create some very large and complex sculptures. Some artists will make their own model layouts and provide different skins, or even allow you to create your own. I like to think of it as interactive, distributable artwork.
