I received different answers regarding my question about the comparison between origami and music, both through the list and privately. Thank you all very much.
I wanted to explain a bit more about the comparison I've "heard" in various occasions, which I'm asking about. I've often taken part in online conversations about origami and art, for example on The Origami Forum (back in the day) or on an origami WhatsApp group or Discord Server. Usually someone states that origami is closer to music than to other visual arts, such as painting and sculpting. Then that person argues that, unlike in visual arts, in music there are composers who make songs–just like creators in origami–and interpreters who play them and sometimes add their own style–just like folders in origami. Often, these comments are then connected to copyright in art and how it should be applied to origami the way it's applied to music. I've heard this exact ideas enough times to start suspecting that it was originally proposed by one person, and after time, the idea became popular. Have you heard, or read, them as well? Am I actually wrong and this composer/creator - interpreter/folder analogy wasn't first proposed by a particular person? Thank you in advance.
