Fortune-telling paper squares, a cube into a pyramid, a destiny unfolds, the story ends at the beginning. To make an origami fortune teller, first you need a piece of paper that is an exact square. On one side, colour-in four squares, on the other side mark out the numbers. Bring the corners to the centre then double over long-ways to form a rectangle. Fold it back in and push up the corners. Slip four corners over thumbs and first fingers. Ask a question, pick a number, pick a colour and pick another number. Pinch your fingers to turn the paper inside out and the answer is revealed. There are only eight responses on each paper fortune teller, written carefully under the corners. They extend from 'yes' 'no' 'maybe', to (depending on the personality of the creator), 'not in this lifetime,' 'if you are willing to sacrifice all', 'be careful on Tuesday.' For some the experience of folding a perfect paper fortune teller was as powerful as the stories unleashed by its predictions.

As materials developed and became cheaper, the origami paper fortune teller was replaced by the cellophane fish. Mass-produced, imported from the Far East , the fish was transparent, light blue or pink with a couple of lines drawn to depict an eye, a fin and tail. Placed on the palm of the hand, a question was put to the fish. If the answer was yes, the head would begin to lift, if no the tail would rise. The force of the curl indicated the strength of the response. An emphatic yes could cause the fish to meet its eye with its tail. It fell out of favour due to the limited repertoire of responses. Also a sweaty palm had the capacity to slow down proceedings for quite a time. A variety show of childhood games: the origami fortune-teller, followed by the floating globes, preceded by the musical comb quartet.
