We call changing things into new forms transmutation, so, yes... let me demonstrate.
[Rather than clap his hands to transmute, since only he and a few others could do so, Al takes a fresh piece of paper and draws a circle, complete with a trapezoid drawn inside, and what look like letters around the outside.]
When I transmute, it uses the energy from the movement of plates inside the earth. Drawing a circle contains that power, and the runes I draw on the outside of the circle act as instructions, of sorts. So then, all I have to do is touch it...
[Al does so, and thus, the sheet of paper folds itself into an origami crane.]
