Dear O-List, a few weeks ago I asked for your input on why origami became so much more popular in the 1980's.
I got a lot of insight from your input and here is now the paper I wrote on the topic: http://tavinsorigami.com/diffusion-of-origami/ I base the claim that the popularity of "Origami" took a significant leap 1980, from the amount of publications that use "Origami" in the title in Germany and the relative amount occurrences of the term in written English. I'd wish I had membership statistics of origami USA and actual sales of origami related books to back this up further. I'd love to hear what you think. all the best, Wolf aka Tavin
