OK, so it’s not exactly origami, it’s papercraft. And it’s not exactly TV, but you can watch “movies” like Kill Bill, Dirty Harry and Dr Stangelove on it.

The papercrafters at Stane’s Island have put together this little DIY “television” project. The boxes have a theme depending on the movie and some low res footage from the films are rolled up inside.

Warning: Pencils are not included.

For those who missed it on the Videogames column, here is a cross-posting about the Theater Experience PSP case. If you are still wondering if you should get a PSP or not, Nyko wants you to forget the gaming aspect of the device and consider the multimedia capabilities seriously. They are about to release their very stylish Theater Experience shock and water resistant aluminum case for the PSP, which has built-in stereo speakers, a rechargeable battery that “extends playtime by over 3 times”, an adjustable stand to hold the PSP at 5 different angles, and a dual headphone jack. If you’ve tried to watch a movie on the beautiful PSP screen, you know you want this case to perfect the experience even more. After all Sony thought the PSP as a portable movie viewer and music player, as much as a portable game console. It’s about time people make interesting non-gaming accessories for it.
