Origami is one art that a lot of people think of when it comes to Japan. Out of those, paper crane is a classic.
Legend has it that if you fold 1000 paper cranes, your wish would come true.

The trick behind this is that there are electromagnets under the table, and the metal placed on the legs of the paper crane reacts to it.

These dancing cranes are created by "ugoita", a group of ordinary guys who gather during weekends to create things like this. To create this, it took them a total of 50 hours of discussion, and about 4 months to actually make it. They even made the music themselves!
We think it's an interesting 'modern' take on traditional art.
