Phenomena The mundane act of crumpling paper as an inherently complex process of transformation
Observables
Form Transformation Planar to volumetric, simple to complex
Intensity of Change Amount of force rendered is inversely proportionate to the amount of change the form undergoes
Unstructured Technique To reach a spherical form, edges are rounded off depending on the momentc

To extract the data required, the information was parsed from the process in the above by careful observation, with force being an extra deduction with reference from the video. The white lines represent the form outlines and the dotted white line represents the form of the previous frame. The yellow lines are more concerned with the complexities of the form, the bold one representing an upward fold (a ridge) and the dotted one representing a downward fold (a valley), with the thin one representing a change in layer. Finger lines and positions are also mapped to provide a relation and orientation of the space in plan and elevation.
