Studio Rules of the Cut:
- The Perimeter Anchor: Cut in from one of the four edges and return out through the same edge. NEVER sever corners.
- Conservation of Mass: Do not discard any scrap paper. Every piece cut from the center must be flipped outward.
- The Reflection Hinge: Mirror each excised piece outward along its exact cut boundary like a swinging open door.
