I'm forwarding this announcement of the ASME-IDETC 4th Symposium on Origami-Based Engineering Design on behalf of the organizers. It's a technical conference, not an origami-class convention, but the papers from the last three years have been REALLY interesting. (Alas, being a technical conference, it's also pretty expensive to attend.)
Dates, details, and deadlines are in the Call for Papers, which you can find in its OrigamiUSA calendar entry: https://origamiusa.org/calendar-event/asmeidetc-4th-symposium-origami-based- engineering-design Robert > We are pleased to invite you to participate in the 4th Symposium on > Origami-Based Engineering Design. The Symposium provides a venue for > researchers to present their work, interact with other researchers in the > field, and discuss future trends and needs. Submissions are invited from all > disciplines interested in origami-based and origami-inspired engineering > design, and topics include but are not limited to origami modeling, design > methods, enabling materials, and origami-inspired applications. Papers are due > in February 2016 and the conference will be held in Charlotte, North Carolina, > USA in August, 2016. More information is in the attached call for papers. > > We look forward to seeing you at the Symposium! > > Larry Howell > Mary Frecker > James Joo > Zhong You > Symposium Organizers >
