I wouldn’t say I dislike the technique, as such, but I have an idea why I have no interest in it. It occurs to me that each unit is directly analogous to a Lego brick, and in the same way that Lego bricks can be used to build just about any form that you can imagine, by simply interlocking them together, exactly the same is true of g.v. modules. That is, although each module is a folded origami figure, the finished creation (and the process of assembling it) is more akin to “doing” Lego than “doing” origami. This is not to denigrate the art of creation in either case, just a sense that the appeal of g.v. may be closer to that of Lego than of other branches of origami.
