[Origami] korean cranes again

2017-03-22 Thread Mizu-randa 

Thanks everybody for all the information, it's really helpful.
In all my 60+ years as a folder I've never seen this folding method before.
Just shows that you're never too old to learn. :-)

Origards,
Miranda

Oh, I have seen it before.

I asked people about this crane.

They said that it is folded in educational origami widely, for children or 
seniors who are difficult to sharpen the edges.

And someone told me that he had folded 1000 crane in 1980s this style.

I'll gather more information and tell you soon.


Sincerely,

jassu from Korea

The distinctive feature of the crane in this video is that the narrowing is 
made via parallel folds in the body rather than corner folds of the head and 
tail.

I know this technique as a "parallel crane", 
http://papirfoldning.dk/da/ugensfold/2010-07.html (sorry about the Danish only 
text) which is a design by Simon Andersen, Denmark. Compared to the video, the 
tail of Simon's parallel crane is folded differently, in a quite striking way. 
Folding instructions by me, 2010, here: 
http://papirfoldning.dk/da/diagrammer/trane02.html

Simon wrote an essay about the difference between Japanese and Western origami, 
using his parallel crane as an example: 
http://papirfoldning.dk/en/simons/simonsiger_2010-07.html

As folding the parallel narrowing is pretty simple, it is quite likely that 
this technique has appeared independently in different parts of the world. I 
like, however, Simon's philosophical take and his asymmetric treatment of head 
and tail.

Regards,
Hans

It is curious. I am Japanese and I do hear about "Korean-style" crane. 
I googled somewhat and found an instruction video on YouTube:

I have always wondered if it really originated in Korea, and now my 
suspicion gets a bit stronger.

Happy folding,

[Origami] korean cranes

2017-03-17 Thread Mizu-randa 

Hi all,

On the Facebook page of the Origami Therapy Association is a message saying 
that there's a difference between a Japanese crane and a Korean one. But 
they didn't say what this difference is and I never noticed it so can anyone 
please satisfy my curiosity?


Thanks,
Miranda
