The Origami Forum

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.

Well, ahm...No. I don't have a TV.

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 !!

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 !



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.
