origami, maths and breafast

May 6, 2009 by Ellie

I knew this would happen, there was no way i could keep on top of blogging our breakfast club!
But last week saw Matt lead a brilliant breafast, and got us all doing a spot of origami.
Whilst we were trying to sort out our valley folds from our pockets folds we learnt about a guy call Robert Lang, who has studied the maths behind origami and uses a program called Treemaker, that can create folding patterns form any 3d model. The results are complex and pretty amazing.
Whilst we’re on the subject, check out these tiny weeny paper cranes on etsy, i may have to make some!il_430xn55444685picture-1img_0344
