Hey Chris,

Amazing. Nice work.

Hi Chris - Dan Piker has been looking at modelling paper in his Kangaroo plugin, so worth asking him for some pointers...

Gregory,
I've found a more efficient way to approach this, and will get back to you when I have it implemented. This was a rigid version, which is different than the paper version I've been folding by hand. I plan to model the paper version, where the folds across the flat quadrilaterals are not folded, but are bending of the paper. This might take some time, since I don't quite know how to do that yet. I also will make a PDF that describes the algorithm. -Chris

Hey Chris - this is great, can you post this on the http://curvedfolding.com network? It's all about this type of geometry, and we are trying to build up a good resource of videos and code right now.

Sameer, Hajar. It is way more simple than the way I was doing it. The intersection components are not necessary. I'll post soon.

Thanks for definition,

Excellent work! I learnt a lot looking at your definition... thanks for sharing!

Great work!

Hajar, a tutorial sounds fun. I have 3 months left of this math class, so I need to find projects to do. Maybe I'll try that.
