Yoshimoto's Cube, a series of three Excellent Foldy Fiddle Toys featured at MoMA available to view on YouTube.

simont, fidgeting with one of my toys -- which, as previously mentioned, I first encountered in the gift shop at the Tate Modern. Simon brought out some of his foldy fiddly paper bits with no idea what they were called, we shook the internet, and ta-da! Modern art fell out.
