| Where I Live Now? |
| I think that I have learned origami for about 10 years already, but I began folding creatively for about a year after learning it. My areas cover mostly on prehistoric creatures, dinosaurs, animals and wacky scenes & objects. Most techniques i apply when designing my models uses techniques borrowed from other famous origami notables. Many of them are so convincing that people ask me to unfold them to prove that its folded only from a square. Jeezz!!! I always take the time to do some folding whether during sparetimes, on the train, free periods at university or work , whenever i can grap a sheet of paper. Those flyers these company`s throw out just work a treat! Since then there have been many questions that people have asked me concerning my origami. So here goes. |
| 1. How many models so far have you created throughout the years ? (Everytime when I create a model, I record it in my origami database. So according to my database, there about 279 models that I have created.) 2. What was the first model you created ? (I don`t remember the first model that I created. I think it was an angel for the christmas tree that was about in 1992) 3. Was was the most complex model that you have created ? (I have created quite a number of complex models. Some of the complex models that I created include the biplane which injure my knuckles everytime I fold it. I also did an origami version of the Petronas Twin Towers which was quite difficult. When complex is defined, I also take account of time that is consummed when folding the model, some complex models take probaly an hour to fold, and such time consumming ones like the stegosaurus, and the triceratops skeleton take more that 3 hours to complete) 4. Who influenced you to take up origami ? ( I have a good mate who gave me some aid and encouragementin folding from books and helped me through the folding procedures. It was then that I was pulled and attarcted to origami, interested in the folding possibilities. Also my major influences in this field have been several folders in different section in origami, Paulo Mulantinho, and Yoshihide Momotani has been my influence for the basics of origami, the complex influences however include folders like Zrobert Lang, David Brill, John Montroll. The frist complex book that I purchased was by David Brill in 1996 and soon discovered more complex and effective techniques that needed to be applied in creative origami ) 5. What was the first origami book that you have purchased ? ( I used to get all this children origami books in volumes [ they even supply free origami paper, wahey!!!] tough i don`t recall the author`s name and all this models where all traditional designs. However the first real origami book I purchased was in 1994. It was entitled "Origami" by Paulo Mulatinho quite a number of neat models too. But the main motive of purchasing it was because the book was marked with a 50% discount tag!!! |
