A world from a sheet of paper

  • Tadashi Tokieda (University of Cambridge, United Kingdom)
Felix-Klein-Hörsaal Universität Leipzig (Leipzig)

Abstract

Starting from just a sheet of paper, by folding, stacking, crumpling, sometimes tearing, we will explore a variety of phenomena, from magic tricks and geometry to nonlinear elasticity and the traditional Japanese art of origami. Much of the show consists of table-top demos, which you can try later with friends and family.

So, take a sheet of paper . . .
