You are quite welcome, Scott!  It sounds like you
enjoyed playing with it as much as I did making it.

I too am intrigued by flat patterns that translate
well to solids.  The issues involved in wrapping flat
designs around solids are well described (and
demonstrated!) in a beautiful kit by Schattschneider
and Walker, called _M.C._Escher_Kaleidocycles_
published by Pomegranate, ISBN 0-87654-208-9.  If you
liked the stellizard octahedron, you might really like
the kaleidocycles (although it involves cutting and
pasting rather than origami).

Subject: Re: Colour printing

At some point I'm going to try the Martha Stewart trick of bringing flimsy
giftwrap or plush fabric over to the local photocopying store and making
color copies on nice cotton bond paper.  It used to be that color copies
were running about one dollar apiece, but 60 cents is possible.  And that's
not a bad investment for a potential showpiece.  I am a little worried
about the color fastness of such copies, and whether a fixative may be
needed.  Doing your own personal color copies at home (especially a very
bright design) just seems too expensive.

I have also taken ordinary colored papers and jazzed them up with some of
the new opaque colored metallic inks on the market.  They can be found as
roller-ball ink pens, and you just scribble away, or also inkpads for use
with stampers.  Put some gold accents on a nice color photocopy, and you
might fool everyone into thinking it's the most expensive chiyogami.  I
once tried some blue, green, and gold metallic inks on black unryu paper,
and made a spectacular peacock.  If you are bored with the usual origami
colors out there, find an artists' supply store and give metallic ink a try.

Greetings Fellow Folders:

The Matsuri Festival 2000 held in Phoenix last weekend was a great success.
I made lots of new friends and folded lots of origami.

An estimated 50,000 attended this year's Matsuri Festival.  Both the origami
booth and exhibit hall were featured attractions.  This year's theme was
"toys."   In addition to the usual models taught at the origami booth
(jumping frog, flapping bird, spinner, hats, etc.), the "hit model" this year
was a Picachu pin designed by Phyllis Snyder. The volunteers worked
tirelessly on Saturday and Sunday to teach the droves of eager folding
enthusiasts.  We kept running out of Pokemon yellow paper. :(

On Monday, I taught a few of my new models: Star Modular, Face Nouveau, and
Fiesta Gourd.   During the workshop, we explored, wet folding, box pleating,
double box pleating, and paper sculpting.  Everyone managed to successfully
fold all 3 models.  I encouraged the group to explore variations to these
models, and I was pleased to see that each folder folded a different
interpretation of the same model.

I have put together a webpage that has pictures of the models I taught and a
group photo of the attendees at the workshop holding their finished models.

http://www.geocities.com/rgs467/index.html

I want to publicly express my gratitude to the Arizona Origami Society for
giving me this opportunity to teach and share my work with other enthusiasts.
 I was graciously received by all who attended. They were a great bunch of
folders!

Sincerely,

Russell Sutherland

Hi, Dino,

Thanks for the reply.

Sorry, I wasn't very clear in my earlier message. I was referring to the
paper type as well, and not the size. I realize that there are
differences in quality even for office paper. The type we use for
printing and photocopying in the office is usually quite good for
folding. I believe most of our supplies come from Indonesia.
Unfortunately, I do not know the technical specifications for this type
of paper, which is commonly referred to as 80gsm, wood free paper
(whatever that means).

Teik Seong, who is one of the guys in our local group, has been using
this type of paper almost exclusively. Some of the origami he has folded
with this type of paper can be viewed at
http://web.singnet.com.sg/~tkteik.

I should mention that the colours of the models in the photographs were
added via computer.

DSL probably stands for Digital Something Line. :-)

It's about 1 Mbps, as opposed to my previous 28.8 k so it's significantly
faster.  It's a direct network connection, so it doesn't tie up your phone
line.  Whenever your computer's on, you're connected.  USWest requires
that we get their Digital cable TV, and then the DSL runs through the same
box as the cable.

 It's also about 50 bucks a month just for the DSL portion.  The cable is
another $35.  But they'll staple tons of cabling all around your house for
free. .

A wood free paper is a paper produced from a wood free fibre, that is a pure
     cellulose fibre.

The following description is based on the conditions in northern Europe. There

     It is often the amount and mixture of short, birch, fibres and long, pine,

Subject: Cheap Paper

I just found a source of pretty good cheap paper squares for folding. For
about $2 at many chain drug strores (Including Rite Aid and Long's here
in California) you can get 400 sheets of 3.43 inch squares in a rainbow
of colors! $1.79 when they're on sale! They come in a plastic container
and are called Memo Cube, distributed under several company names. The
paper is like colored typing paper, colored all the way through, but is
thinner than regular tying paper, which is good since the sheets are small.
These are loose sheets, and very square. Bright colors. Good for modulars.

Also: Along side these there are packs of, I think, 600 sheets of 3 inch
squares, but these are "padded up" with one edge glued. Don't know if
the traces of gum on this edge would be a pain when folding. Same price.

This is just a message to float an idea - and to see what other folk think.
Please feel free to reply either privately or publicly through the list.

The idea is simply this, that there may well be room in the origami
community for a contact group of folders who are particularly interested in
sharing ideas and information about modular origami, and perhaps in working
together to make information more easily available to beginners and
outsiders.

I want to make it absolutely clear that I'm not proposing a new origami
society or even a new list. Modular origami is already very much a part of
the normal range of activities of the various national societies and the
subject of many informed discussions here, and I would hate to see that
situation change. However it's also true that modular origami is in many
ways still the 'poor relation' of single-sheet folding, and that its true
potential remains unrealised.

So what would such a contact group do? How would I join it? How would it
work?

Well, I have a few ideas - which I'm willing to share with anyone who's
interested - and I'm willing to do a good deal of work to make it happen if
the interest is there - but basically I'm hoping that the answers to these
questions will come from you.

Yes, it's Clare with some more catching up - for our US cousins, you might
want to note (!) that we have not had one dollar notes for many years, and
that, in fact, we have NO paper money in Australia.  I find it ironic that
Australia has supposedly the world's most un-forgeable notes made of plastic
as the Oz dollar is relatively worthless!! (and now, unfoldable)

For those who are into mini cranes - I like to take small paper (around 4 or
5 cm) divide it almost into squared quarters, either with the outside or
middle still joined, and fold 4 cranes with either wings joined or
tails/beaks together!  And yes I am a public servant, but I do have other
(if not better) things to do than fold, as was implied by one European
folder recently.  (I was instructed on my first day to stop looking out of
the window - when I asked why, I was told otherwise I'd have nothing to do
in the afternoon!!!)

Finally for brolly folds (and 'Chamberlain' is what they call big black
brollies in France) I will endeavour to find my cigarette pack folding
instructions at home and see if they are scannable for those interested - it
may take some time!

Thanks to those who wished me well - my neck is still to sore to fold paper

The easiest way would be to either set up a newsgroup (if there was

That said, people will still post modular threads to this list!

Subject: Re: Modular origami, woven polyhedra, Butterfly Ball variation

Yes, I'm a little interested in modulars, tho I don't actually have
the patience to sit and fold many. I do appreciate the locking
mechanisms and the "size"/"power of each system/module.

I consider strip-woven polyhedra to be an extension of modular
origami, too.

(1) There's the "Plaited Crystal Models" method from the
Oxford Press book "Mathematical Models" by Cundy and Rollett.

(I adapted this idea, first into (a) using free strips, unattached to
each other, then into (b) a modular construction, where the strips
can be pieced together out of modules, and then into (c) a
ribbon-weaving method, where the straight ribbon is first
folded into the zigzag strip, then the strips are woven together.)

(2) there's the open basketweave icosidodecahedron I've seen in
some crafts books, which is actually an extension of the "Plaited
Crystal Models" idea, using the same Petrie Paths (or however
that's spelled), but insisting on straight strips, and allowing for
"holes" in the faces.

(I eventually combined this idea with the previous method,
weaving straight ribbon into polyhedral shapes with some of the
vertices missing, like the tips of the points of star-shaped polyhedra,
for instance.)

(3) there's the "Woven Polyhedra - Vladimir Michalkinski (BO 167)"
innovation, which opens up a whole new realm of basket-woven
polyhedra.

(4) And somewhere I saw an article that pointed out that the
classic three strips cube could be assembled in several ways,
not just the over-and-under basketweave. I.e. twilling and
other variations of weaving can be applied. This can be extended
to other modulars.

In particular, the Butterfly Ball has an alternate assembly method,
where the corners of a module go over-over-under-under,
instead of the intuitive over-under-over-under. Surprisingly, it holds
together, and looks very nice, with the square faces bisected
instead of quartered.

Subject: Re: Cheap Paper

These are sometimes available at office supply stores. I have never
found tha padding (glue) to be a problem. It generally comes off really
easily if it should stick to the edge of the paper. And it generally
only sticks to the edge of the paper if you tear off more than a couple
of sheets at a time.

You have to be careful with some of the cubes, though. I have found that
they sometimes get slightly scewed in the cutting process. If the cube
appears to twist (other than the ones that are glued together in a
twist) they are generally not square.

You are announcing that there will be a
BOOM Convention on Bornholm in August.
(Bornholm Origami Meeting of the Masters)
I hope you will forgive me
for being so late in informing you.
When you wrote to me earlier this year
I was expecting words from my friends

and only the day before yesterday
did I receive the final verdict,
there will not be a BOOM on Bornholm
but Origami Sweden will hold their
Convention in October as usual,
I agree,  there is no sense
in having other Origami Conventions
in the same area  and time frame.

It all boils down to my lack of initiative and
inability to organize anything.
I am the only one to blame

So please announce loudly and clearly
in all directions, that there will be no
Boom on Bornholm.

finish the report that I promised to write

of a selected group of Origami Enthusiasts

In this report I can put straight the

and explain about the splendid Idea
of an Origami Cruise in the Baltic Sea,
as a substitute for my lack of initiative
in arranging the Bornholm Meeting,
and tell Origami Lovers around the World
that now that there is an Organisation:
Origami Sweden, which very capably
have arranged and will arrange
Origami Conventions in Stockholm
every Year in October, there is no sense
in having other Origami Conventions
in the same area  and time frame.

I will get down to write my Report from Versailles.

It is all my fault, I am the only one to blame,

     has any other ideas, I would be happy to hear!

Thanks,

I recall that the umbrellas that I'd like to know about were actually
cut and pasted, not really folded.  I also know that there were also
toothpicks that were placed in the umbrella.  Is this the umbrella in
Kenneway's book?

OK ALRIGHT ALREADY.  I'll tell you way in a book you can find
UMBRELLAS.
Its in the  "COMPLETE  ORIGAMI "  by  " ERIC KENNEWAY "An  A  to  Z
facts
and folds , with step by step instructions for over 100  projects.
Its
on
page  180 . How to make umbrellas by Toshie takahama.  As for me i
recomend
this book for a very exellant addition to anyones Library.  I hope
this
is a
great help. there is a picture in the book of the umbrella. And as
far
as as
i know  i haven't found a picture on the internet of it. I would send
more
detailed  infomation . But at this time i don't have a scanner. If,
you
have any suggestions  let me know at  CQBERKEY3@EMAIL,MSN.COM   and I
try to
get you a copy of the infomation.              From charles
