termed

iate

swimming fishThe rubbing action to make this fish swim

is one I borrowed from a design I saw in a

Japanese book or magazine (which, despite

my best efforts, I have been unable to trace)

but folded very differently. I remember

thinking at the time that the mechanism

was a wonderful idea, so I redesigned the

fish as the version you see here. The same

action is used in the Scuttling Mouse.

1. Fold the top edge down to

the bottom edge.

2. Fold and unfold across the middle.

Use a square of origami paper, white side up.

4. Unfold the center crease.

7. Mountain fold in half again.

5. Turn over.

6. Turn back just a sliver of the edge.

8. Refold Step 2 . . .

3. Mountain fold the corner inside the paper.

Repeat behind.

9. . . . so that the square stands upright, like

this. Between the layers of the square, the

paper is white. Apply pressure on the folded

edge at the back, so that the white pocket

begins to open . . .

10. . . . and open and open, until it begins to

close, bringing one dot to the other . . .

11. . . . like this. The result is a large flat triangle,

sitting on top of the paper. Turn up the two

corners as shown . . .

12. . . . so that between them sits a square.

Fold down one corner.

13. Fold the loose layer over to the right.

14. This is the completed fish. Add an eye.

15. To make the fish swim, hold as shown.

Rub your finger and thumb together as though

sprinkling salt. This will cause the fish to swim

left and right! To complete the effect, move

your hand forward at the same time.
