I Want to Be an Origami Master

by Frank on September 2, 2010

I’ve been interested in origami for a long time. It stems from a colleague of mine who years ago used to tell new clients that I was a good writer…but an origami master. It became a running gag, and for years we’d send each other notes about origami. I even folded a lot of paper at one time. Now I’m on the verge of obsessed.

I saw this documentary called Between the Folds about real origami masters. And I want to give it a shot. To fold.

I highly recommend the movie for those who are into the intersection of art and science.
