Magazine Article about Nicolas Terry

Post by notefolds »

We just purchased a Mazda Tribute, and now we get a quarterly magazine from Mazda. Imagine my surprise when I opened the magazine and saw an article about origami, featuring Nicolas Terry. Since very few of you would be able to see this article, I scanned it to share. There's even some instructions for a simple model.

Most revealing quote: "I fold most of my shapes while watching TV." I'm sure all of us can relate ;)

What a surprise to find in a Mazda magazine.
Nice little article.
The diagram at the bottom has some badly confusing colouration though.

Yay Anna, neither do I!

I'm a bus folder, for the most part... although I do a lot of folding when I'm at home too.

>"I fold most of my shapes while watching TV." I'm sure all of us can relate Wink

This is an example how an interview can change what we originaly said !! :wink:

The original talk :

Journalist : " Origami isn't too complex ? You probably need to be alone in a quiet moment !"
Me : no : I can even fold watching tv or talking to the family !

Transform in :

"I fold most of my shapes while watching TV"

I've asked they change the end of article !! of course, they don't !

I 've the hope that nobody read this article in the origami community !

:lol:

Now, all folders believe that I spend all my time watching TV !! jejeje

I have a TV, but it is only used for game consoles.
I watch TV shows on my computer.

I often fold while listening to TV.
It's sort of hard to watch both the paper I'm folding, and the TV.
Most of what I fold while listening to TV is just random doodles or simple tessellations. Proper models require more of my attention.
