I don't envy the task (gave up at T) but it seems doable. Folded and photographed properly you might get the continuation of line that you're looking for but with added depth to help distinguish individual characters.
Edit: I both folded and photographed it wrong but if you did it right you could get each letter popping up and to the right away from the previous letter. Looks much better than this photo on my desk refolded.
You can't really tell from my photo but I used graph paper which made it easier to get the angles and lengths right. I treated a 2x2 square as the base unit, each side of the O being 4 units wide (2 folded edge units and 2 square middle units).
I hope this ultimately proves useful and doesn't sent you off on an unproductive tangent ;)

oh, lovely. I agree the shadows will help to visually distinguish the characters.

Going to have to mess with this now. Getting the sides the right size and the folds the correct angles will take a bit of doing.

It's papercraft, except it's in Illustrator.
This could be something.
