Origami, damn

Recommended Posts

Dude in japan folded this from 1 piece of paper.

found this bit of info...

"Origami Eastern dragon version 3.5, by Satoshi Kamiya.
folded from a 1.8 meter square of paper without a single cut.
This dragon may well be the world's most complex origami piece,
and Satoshi Kamiya is for sure one of the best folders in the world."
Travis Roy Foundation. At very least its a tax write off

Expand your world to include things you have not previously thought possible.

I've seen smaller works like this with similar but less detail. It's not a stretch for me to think someone with enough time and dedication could to it.

Skeptical is fine and especially on the internet. I'm extraordinarily skeptical of claims I know do not match with the physics of the universe, like UFOs and the 911 attacks being fake.

There are, however, some exceptional individuals in this world with exceptional skills, talent and time on their hands that can take the mundane and perform amazing works of art.

It's just folding paper. Just like splashing some paint on a canvas. Or taking a chisel and hammer to a chunk of granite. In art, you have an infinite number of mediums, and ingenious ways to achieve your end product. Didn't some dude to the "Leaning Tower of Pisa" in cheese a while back? :P

Friend of mine caught a bouncer gig at one of those "eat sushi off the naked hot chick" parties last weekend. Rules were 1: don't touch the girls. 2. See rule 1 if confused. Only had to chuck one dumb ass down a flight of stairs. Everyone else behaved. ;)

Man. You live in a one-dimensional world, don't you? :S

I used to do a fair amount of origami, but specialised in geometrical forms that used multiple modules of the same folding to create shapes like these:

I can well believe someone has created the dragon in the first post. There are some rediculously complex pieces out there.
