Folding Mathematics into Origami
Origami is the traditional Japanese art of paper folding. In the past 30 years investigations into folding properties have not only resulted in many stunning models, but also a surprising number of applications. In this talk we will provide an introduction to some of the mathematics of folding, including various theoretical notions of what sorts of folds are possible.
