I rented a remarkable Chinese film from the library this week: "The Blue Kite" (1993)
Directed by Tian Zhuangzhuang. In the film a young bride receives as a wedding gift a paper cut. There are many paper cuts pasted on windows throughout the film. Later, for her young son (approx age 2) she folds a "Blow-up" frog origami model ( ? with extended legs). I've never seen this particular model before. Does anyone know if this traditional Chinese model has been published/ diagrammed anywhere? Our other Club news: the family of Mrs. Teruko Shiono, who died recently, has donated to OCoP a large supply of: OUSA Annuals; origami books; and paper supplies. OCoP plans to share these supplies with the origami clubs at: Sq. Hill, East Liberty and Dormont Libraries; CMU and Univ. of Pgh. We are most grateful to the Shiono family for this support of our program. Sue Neff - Origami Club of Pittsburgh (OCoP)
