Cut’n Fold
This is quite interesting, though I bridle at some of the statements in the article. I think folding curved lines on paper has received a little attention. here and there, and “the harmless hobby of peace-seeking aesthetes?”
Aes-thetes, indeed. Get over here, grubstreet, and I’ll show you how we play.
That podium those chaps are making? They gave one to OUSA for us to use at he 4OSME conference last year. I was one of the people charged with trying to figure out how to/if it needed to be put together. They also gave us a bunch of other curvy plastic-folded do-dads, the purposes of which remained a mystery.
And harmless? Wait till Dr. Lang’s foldable space-lens gets used to make an orbit-to-earth laser cannon to satisfy all the neo-con Star Wars wet dreams. Peaceful, eh?
