Dirkon
The Dirkon is a paper camera kit that was first published in 1979 in the Communist Czechoslovakian magazine ABC mladých techniků a přírodovědců [translated as An ABC of Young Technicians and Natural Scientists]. The pattern was created by Martin Pilný, Mirek Kolár, and Richard Vyškovský. The name Dirkon is a play on words based on the combination of the parts of two words: Dirk- is the beginning of the Czech word ''dírka'' (pinhole), and ''-kon'' is the end of the name of the well-known Japanese camera, Nikon.

Pinhole Camera
A pinhole camera is a simple camera without a lens but with a tiny aperture (the so-called ''pinhole'')—effectively a light-proof box with a small hole in one side. Light from a scene passes through the aperture and projects an inverted image on the opposite side of the box, which is known as the camera obscura effect. The size of the images depends on the distance between the object and the pinhole. History Camera obscura The camera obscura or pinhole image is a natural optical phenomenon. Early known descriptions are found in the Chinese Mozi writings (circa 500 BCE) and the Aristotelian ''Problems'' (circa 300 BCE – 600 CE). Ibn al-Haytham (965–1039), an Arab physicist also known as Alhazen, described the camera obscura effect. Over the centuries others started to experiment with it, mainly in dark rooms with a small opening in shutters, mostly to study the nature of light and to safely watch solar eclipses. Giambattista Della Porta wrote in 1558 in his Magia Na ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Communist
Communism (from Latin la, communis, lit=common, universal, label=none) is a far-left sociopolitical, philosophical, and economic ideology and current within the socialist movement whose goal is the establishment of a communist society, a socioeconomic order centered around common ownership of the means of production, distribution, and exchange which allocates products to everyone in the society.: "One widespread distinction was that socialism socialised production only while communism socialised production and consumption." Communist society also involves the absence of private property, social classes, money, and the state. Communists often seek a voluntary state of self-governance, but disagree on the means to this end. This reflects a distinction between a more libertarian approach of communization, revolutionary spontaneity, and workers' self-management, and a more vanguardist or communist party-driven approach through the development of a constitutional socialist state ...

Richard Vyškovský
Richard Vyškovský (13 July 1929 – 1 August 2019) was a Czech architect and creator of paper models. In 1960s Vyškovský worked for the ''State institute for reconstruction of historic towns and monuments'' (SÚRPMO) in Prague. After a discussion with colleagues, complaining about the limited availability of die-cast Matchbox scale cars sold in the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic only in Tuzex shops, he decided to create similar models from paper. His first model was designed after a die-cast Packard Landaulet model manufactured by Lesney Products under code Y-11 in the series ''Models of Yesteryear''. In October 1968 the newspaper ''Lidová demokracie'' published a short article about "ing. Blecha and his colleague" accompanied by photos of paper models Mercedes 38/220 and Packard Landaulet. The state-owned publishing house SNDK and Vladislav Toman, editor in chief of ABC magazine, showed interest in publishing paper models by Blecha/Vyškovský. Already in 1968 SNDK publish ...
