PCOC 2005 Puzzles
In 2005, the PCOC (Pacific Coast
OrigamiUSA Conference) had a call for puzzles for a special book,
PCOC Play,
published by OrigamiUSA.
We submitted two pages describing a pair of puzzles.
Here they are.
Puzzles
These puzzles are intended to be made by hand from white paper.
Each page describes how to make the puzzle, by creasing a grid pattern
and coloring some of the squares in certain ways.
The "Black and White Squares" puzzle is relatively easy,
designed for young folders and as a warm up for the "Colored Squares" puzzle.
The latter puzzle actually consists of four subpuzzles,
with varying difficulty.
Printing Notes
The PDF files are the best combination of printing quality and small file size.
The PostScript files also have ideal printing quality, but the files are larger.
In either case, you need a suitable
viewer.
Alternatively, you can print one of the images.
If you can print images scaled to fit, use 150dpi.
Otherwise, use 72dpi.
