It contains 8 puzzles. The puzzle in each case is to fold a square piece of paper, such as depicted below, in such a way that one side is black and the other side is white.</p>
<p>There is a book published by &#8220;<a href="http://www.theincrediblecompany.com/manifold-1/">The Incredible Company</a>&#8220;. You can freely download a free <a href="http://www.theincrediblecompany.com/app/download/9384223221/DIYManifold.pdf?t=1395672530">pdf</a> with 5 puzzles from there site. The book does not seem to mention an author, though I suspect the author is Jérôme Morin-Drouin. Play testers were two people named Caro and Felix.</p>
<p>To solve the puzzles below, print them, cut them and fold them such that the result is a sqiuare, white on one side and black on the other.</p>

Credits go to Quest for pointing out this puzzle type, to the incredible company for coming up with the idea and to my daughter Margreet for puzzle number 2 above. NUmbers 1 and 3 are my own work.</p>
