2013-05-10 Thread V A
Friend sent me this animated gif that goes from crease pattern on paper to the 
fully folded model. I don't know whose elephant model it is nor who made this 
gif...

[Origami] BBC News Item

2013-05-10 Thread Israeli Origami Center
Hi Everyone,

This interesting item appeared today on the main BBC News site:
http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20130510-nature-maths-better-origami

One of the links on the left features a certain R Lang (of this parish) in
what -- if we can believe the photo -- looks like a new career as an
orchestral conductor. ;-)

[Origami] 2013 OUSA Origami Collection Table of Contents

2013-05-10 Thread DANIEL SCHER
Hi everyone,

The illustrated table of contents for the 2013 OrigamiUSA Origami Collection is 
now available for viewing here:

http://origamiusa.org/thecollection

The 225-page book contains 45 models, many of them published for the first 
time. Special thanks to Nathan Zeichner for his wonderful cover illustration!

And of special note: This will be our first collection that will be perfect 
bound. In other words, there will no longer be a spiral binding. The price of 
the collection is also lower than in previous years.

Cheers,

Daniel 

[Origami] May update

2013-05-10 Thread Meenakshi Mukerji
Here's what I have been up to since my last update.

My Single Sheet Designs Gallery has two new flowers, Marigold and Hollyhock, 
both from 4-Sink Base.  I also folded the Playing Card Symbols in black and red 
duo.  I like the kami version better though.

2013 Gallery has been updated with what I folded with some TOFU members at NC.  
It was so great to meet Mette, Judith, Norm and Monte.  Judith taught the 
teabag reindeer with so much patience and we had a lot of fun at Mette's 
origami room!

Guest Gallery 2013 updated has a few new beautiful submissions.

Single Sheet Diagrams page has new link for the above mentioned reindeer.
