Re: [Origami] Origami for disaster relief

Hi,I don't know who was the folder, but this video was generated in 2012 after 
Hurricane Sandy. 
It's a great video and an important message but I am interested in how they can 
re-appropriate the video.  Is the video for sale? Is the video made/used by the 
same organization as the one using it today for the CA fires?  is it a public 
domain video? Hmm

Hey Joel,

I think this was asked about before, either on the O-list, Facebook, or
some other forum; because while doing some sleuthing for old List mail, I
found that a friend had sent me this link back in December of 2012:

https://www.ispot.tv/ad/wGEx/ad-council-hard-at-work-hurricane-relief


And my reply to her was that this had been a topic of discussion.  And I
linked to this video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jObTyVeIPXk

There have been other uploads and variants.

I didn't stumble upon any previous List mail; but sleuthing some more via
Google, I think I managed to track down the guy who worked on the
commercial:

First I've heard of him.

According to http://mathworld.wolfram.com/DuerersSolid.html , the model is a  
truncated triangular trapezohedron. The mathematical details of its geometry is 
on the above page, for any modular designer who'd like to have a go.
