A good origami thing you can use is a square of paper. It's not terribly
exciting, but I think it would work. Use only valley folds.

Hi Ilan,
It's very simple to create a self-similar spiral from any

best we can say that each of these displays self similarity at a single
point.
A *very* simple and truly self similar model is the dragon curve from a
strip of paper. A *very* complex and hard to execute model would be a
