Modular origami or unit origami is a multi-stage paper folding technique in which several, or sometimes many, sheets of paper are first folded into individual modules or units and then assembled into an integrated flat shape or three-dimensional structure, usually by inserting flaps into pockets created by the folding process. [3]
The two main types of origami symbol are lines and arrows [2] — arrows show how origami paper is bent or moved, while lines show various types of edges: A thick line shows the edge of the paper; A dashed line shows a valley fold. The paper is folded in front of itself.
Origami paper and a traditional origami crane. Origami paper is the paper used for origami, the art of Japanese paper folding.The only real requirement of the folding medium is that it must be able to hold a crease, but should ideally also be thinner than regular paper for convenience when multiple folds over the same small paper area are required (e.g. such as would be the case if creating an ...
Origami is a magic stage illusion with a Japanese paperfolding theme, designed by Jim Steinmeyer.It was originally performed in 1986 by Canadian illusionist Doug Henning, using a working prop constructed by illusion builder John Gaughan.
A crease pattern (commonly referred to as a CP) [1] is an origami diagram that consists of all or most of the creases in the final model, rendered into one image. This is useful for diagramming complex and super-complex models, where the model is often not simple enough to diagram efficiently.
