[Origami] Origami Sighting

2013-10-23 Thread Ray Takeuchi
In Volume 1 of the book, Full Bloom co. 2013 by long time French magician, 
Gaetan Bloom is a nice effect called The Hen.

The magician holds a small lightweight board like a tray. She places a piece of 
paper on it.  With invisible hands the paper folds into the classic Pajarita 
model. Underneath the model is found an egg. The egg is cracked open to show 
that it is a real egg.  Haven't seen the effect performed  but it reads well.

cheers,

Re: [Origami] Out of hibernation, the empty post, and request

Subject: [Origami] Out of hibernation


I have been off the grid largely for the past couple of years, but I'd like to 
invite everyone to have a look at some of my new creations.  I've updated my 
Flickr, and begun sharing my origami on Instagram as well.  




sorry about the empty post.  my computer is acting up.  i was just asked if i 
had any chop stick folds, so i will also ask the larger group. where might i 
find chop stick folds, that is paper to hold the chop sticks.

i was going to reply to just seth, but i was unable to change the 'to' field, 
and when asked, after i hit cancel, i said do not keep.  so seth, great photos, 
and the dollar bunny is great.  are there diagrams anywhere for it.  thanks. 
part of the acting up, is the inability to use the shift key, unless i want all 
sorts of gibberish.

[Origami] World Origami Days 2013

2013-10-23 Thread Michila Caldera
RE the question about World Origami Days (WOD):  I only know of the event
being hosted by the Van Nuys Japanese Garden, in Van Nuys, CA, on 03nov.
The Garden normally puts on an origami event each spring and fall. Spring
is usually for Mother's Day and Fall is just called Origami Day or some
such. But this year, the event leader specifically chose 03nov as it falls
in the range of what are known as World Origami Days (what are the dates,
anyway? I need to look it up). It's 1015am to 315pm in the garden, at the
Donald C Tillman Water Reclamation Plant, immediately west of the 405
freeway (get off at Victory or Burbank).
