Human-AI Co-Development of a Geometric Algorithm for Infinite Shuriken Artwork Design Generation

We present a human–AI co-developed geometric algorithm for generating infinite origami shuriken assemblies using radial symmetry, affine transformations, and programmable crease patterns. By combining analytic theory, interactive design tools, and fabrication pipelines, we show how generative AI augments human creativity in digital and physical domains. Our contributions include (1) a framework for $ \mathbb{Z}_n $-symmetric gadget assemblies, (2) a geometric algorithm compatible with fabrication, and (3) an interactive web application for real-time co-design. This work exemplifies how humans and machines can collaboratively explore large design spaces and reinterpret historical artifacts through creative computation.
