This Saturday, December 4, 9:30 - 12:00 (New York) / 14:30 - 17:00 (London) / 20:00 - 22:30 (New Delhi), there will be a United to Fold - UnFold gathering. You are all welcome to join; it's through the Zoom platform. Three volunteers will teach how to fold each a different simple or intermediate model. After that, everyone is divided into smaller groups just to meet people from different countries that share one common interest: origami!

If you would like to attend, and you still aren't a part of the Foldeas/UnFold email list, email me. I will ask you to first add me among your contacts and whitelist my email address; I'll provide a guide explaining how to do that: gerardo(a)neorigami.com

 Here is Revela's official website through Google Translate: https://translate.google.com/translate? ... nadoras/2/
 
 

 
 

 
 

 
 
 
 The organizers of the exhibition also made merchandise based on the pieces: pins, t-shirts, post cards, page markers, stickers, and an official book.

Subject: [Origami] Volunteers for a Foldeas practice session?



HI

 

I hope two of you can help us with an important favor. We need a couple of volunteers that can help as attendees for a practice session of the next Foldeas hands-on presentation. It's important for it to be people living either in any country in the Americas or people living in Europe.

 

The intention is to check everything technology-wise in relation to our guest speaker, Asha Gulati, including her Internet connection. Asha is an experimental paper artist and instructor-educator, based in New Delhi, currently working in Pearl Academy.







 

The official session will be on February 6, 10:00 - 12:00 ish (New York) / 15:00 - 17:00 (London). So, we will exchange messages between Asha, the two volunteers, and I, in order to find the best date and time for the practice session, which would have to be before said date.

 

If you'd like to help out please send me a private message ASAP, including your name and country of residence. Don't send it through the list, write instead to gerardo(a)neorigami.com

 

 

Thank you very much in advance!

I would attend only a few workshops. Time being one of the factors to consider. Secondly,  financially also I can't afford to pay $50 (₹ 3600/-)I request you to let me know if you provide a discounted rate/ promo code or coupon.I will put in a word in my group "Friends in Folds" so that some more folders might join.Regards, HAPPY FOLDING!!!- Govind Kulkarni--Sent from my Android phone with mail.com Mail.

   Dear Origami friends, 
   

   
   
With 72 workshops in three days, three guests of honor, three teaching rooms (via Zoom), a lounge room open through the whole three days, and a completely new concept for the program, this is surely an event you don't want to miss!
   
   

   
   
Our guests of honor are Maria Sinayskaya (South Africa), Sebastian Limet (France), And Riccardo Colletto (Italy). Each brings a unique perspective to the origami world!
   
   

   
   
Our program is unique and huge! To fully understand it, we highly recommend downloading the 121-page booklet from the event page on Mixiliy: 
   
   
https://www.mixily.com/event/907326138628987
   
   

   
   
or download it directly from here:
   
   
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Kad_7Z6O4V1x1UxzPEbhvEF7PcXno3hE/view?usp=sharing
   
   
The ProgramThe convention is divided into nine classrooms (three per day, for three days), and every classroom tells a story. All the models (but the last, after-midnight, hour) in this classroom will follow a unique theme. Some of the themes follow the creators. Such are the classes for Grand Masters, Tomoko Fuse, and Made in Italy.Some follow the origami genre: Time for Action and Color Change are self-explanatory, and so is Useful Origami. We also have classes devoted to the paper to be used; by its shape - Don't be a Square, or its type - Tant. The last theme, Impure, means the classic golden-rules of origami do not apply. The starting point is anything but a single sheet of square paper, and you will cut, or heaven forbid, even use glue!But this is not the complete story, no, no, no! This will be too simple for us.To make things more interesting, and to allow us to tell even more stories, every hour has a topic, too! It could be Stars, Flowers, Pandas, Cats (oh, so many cats!), Wings, Octagon from a Square, and Cats again! Of course, each model fits the theme of its class! The first model in the hour of the stars is made by an Italian, the second is not from a square, as it is part of the Don't be a Square class, and the third will be an action model, in the Time for Action class. Choose in the booklet which class you will attend, and add it directly to your calendar with a single click!The teachers are Israeli folders (and Italian, and one is even from Uruguay!), and we are all eager to have you with us.
   
   
The official language is English.  
   
   

 


 Let us help you forget 2020 with the best start for the convention season!

 Christine from the US also taught us that day how to fold Diamondrose Squarejumper, which is a variation by Gerwin Sturm of Diamond, a model created by Caroline Cermak.





 And at the August 8 gathering, Asha from India taught mitre and forage cap, which are both traditional models.








 At that same gathering, Tej who's also from India, taught Baggi Box created by Guissepe Baggi and Jumpig Frog created by Michael LaFosse. With the two models we were to help the frogs jump into their "wells".
