Re: [Origami] Free easy to fold praying person diagram available?
Kenneth mentioned his interest in adding diagrams for a praying person on a prayer manual he's editing for his church and mentioned he found some on YouTube. I just wanted to mention that, when it comes to copyrighted works, it's important to first get the copyright owners authorization before doing something like republishing it, even if it is for a free publication. It's not enough to give proper credits. That is also the case regarding free diagrams, since the fact that they are available for free doesn't make them of public domain (without copyright). You can read more about origami and copyright here: https://origamiusa.org/copyright-faq And I'm willing to bet the creator of the YouTube video, isn't the copyright owner of said origami model nor the diagrams. That person probably simply took pictures from a book and turned them into the YouTube video without proper authorization. Such type of actions can only be reported by the author or its legal representative. So, he can't give you said authorization. I tried to find out who is the creator of that model through Google, but couldn't. I found two different models, which are similar, but not the one you found: praying moor in "Origami: The Art of Paper Folding" by Robert Harbin (it's creator was unknown at that time), and Moor at Prayer created by Miguel Salvatella, found in "Secrets of Origami" also by Mr. Harbin. -- Gerardo G. gerardo(a)neorigami.com instagram.com/neorigamicomKnowledge and Curiosity in Origami: six private classes online "(...)
