my profession but my passion is origami and talk about the many dimensions of
and talk about the many dimensions of
and talk about the many dimensions of origami today so most of us I mean can
origami today so most of us I mean can
origami today so most of us I mean can you think of origami you’re thinking
you think of origami you’re thinking
you think of origami you’re thinking about flapping birds and grains and
about flapping birds and grains and
about flapping birds and grains and things like that image it so clean and

India with paper planes right as kids or even probably as college students she’s
even probably as college students she’s
even probably as college students she’s thrown paper planes at someone it is
thrown paper planes at someone it is
thrown paper planes at someone it is once in your life and as kids we all
once in your life and as kids we all
once in your life and as kids we all used to make boats right so toddlers
used to make boats right so toddlers
used to make boats right so toddlers Akash tea and stuff like that so now
Akash tea and stuff like that so now
Akash tea and stuff like that so now let’s start looking at this instead of
let’s start looking at this instead of
let’s start looking at this instead of as a port as the geometric form right so
as a port as the geometric form right so
as a port as the geometric form right so let’s abstract it and to get it as a
let’s abstract it and to get it as a
let’s abstract it and to get it as a form which has an inherent Samba tree in
form which has an inherent Samba tree in
form which has an inherent Samba tree in it and this our tippy top most of us
it and this our tippy top most of us
it and this our tippy top most of us would have paid typically beat up as

would have paid typically beat up as kids
now let’s look at the boat again and
now let’s look at the boat again and then look at it as a geometric form
then look at it as a geometric form
then look at it as a geometric form right as I’m what you do so you can find
right as I’m what you do so you can find
right as I’m what you do so you can find a lot of these and you start getting
a lot of these and you start getting
a lot of these and you start getting some sort of a larger Java tree out of
some sort of a larger Java tree out of
some sort of a larger Java tree out of it you put a light inside it you get a
it you put a light inside it you get a
it you put a light inside it you get a beautiful object
beautiful object
beautiful object but this is not a beautiful object and
but this is not a beautiful object and
but this is not a beautiful object and only this is also a platonic solid it is
only this is also a platonic solid it is
only this is also a platonic solid it is a real solid geometry concept and this
a real solid geometry concept and this
a real solid geometry concept and this this dippity beta if you combine a lot
this dippity beta if you combine a lot
this dippity beta if you combine a lot of modules in place then you get a very
of modules in place then you get a very
of modules in place then you get a very complex object so what can you do so far
complex object so what can you do so far
complex object so what can you do so far you gotta do with origami and usually
you gotta do with origami and usually
you gotta do with origami and usually you start with a square sheet of paper
you start with a square sheet of paper
you start with a square sheet of paper and you could say okay maybe I fold it
and you could say okay maybe I fold it
and you could say okay maybe I fold it in half and I fold it again and maybe I
in half and I fold it again and maybe I
in half and I fold it again and maybe I get some kind of form or something so
get some kind of form or something so
get some kind of form or something so I’ll show you three four examples of
I’ll show you three four examples of
I’ll show you three four examples of what you could do with a square sheet of
what you could do with a square sheet of
what you could do with a square sheet of paper
so this 2 is the square sheet of people
so this 2 is the square sheet of people you have a larger version of this down
you have a larger version of this down
you have a larger version of this down here yeah this is a square sheet of
here yeah this is a square sheet of
here yeah this is a square sheet of paper
this spiral formula is also a square
this spiral formula is also a square sheet of people
what about this phone this tube is a
what about this phone this tube is a square sheet of people right so there
square sheet of people right so there
square sheet of people right so there are hundreds of things in thousands of
are hundreds of things in thousands of
are hundreds of things in thousands of things you start with a square sheet of
things you start with a square sheet of
things you start with a square sheet of paper and you can move in any direction
paper and you can move in any direction
paper and you can move in any direction as far as Swamiji is concerned someone
as far as Swamiji is concerned someone
as far as Swamiji is concerned someone told you you have to make a cube
told you you have to make a cube
told you you have to make a cube you’ve got use pair of scissors you
you’ve got use pair of scissors you
you’ve got use pair of scissors you can’t use a blade you can’t use glue how
can’t use a blade you can’t use glue how
can’t use a blade you can’t use glue how do you make a cube and on top of that
do you make a cube and on top of that
do you make a cube and on top of that they say that the few must also have
they say that the few must also have
they say that the few must also have holes in it yeah how do you do it
holes in it yeah how do you do it
holes in it yeah how do you do it no glue no scissors no cutter you can do
no glue no scissors no cutter you can do
no glue no scissors no cutter you can do it
by just using square sheets of people
by just using square sheets of people many modules of it 12 in this case and
many modules of it 12 in this case and
many modules of it 12 in this case and you can get up to meet with no group and
you can get up to meet with no group and
you can get up to meet with no group and no scissors
meet a larger form using the cubes again
meet a larger form using the cubes again your blue combined loop them you can
your blue combined loop them you can
your blue combined loop them you can even close it so that it becomes a ring
even close it so that it becomes a ring
even close it so that it becomes a ring so the possibilities are sort of endless
so the possibilities are sort of endless
so the possibilities are sort of endless and Here I am talking about this
and Here I am talking about this
and Here I am talking about this simplest three-dimensional geometry
simplest three-dimensional geometry
simplest three-dimensional geometry which is a cube
so I’ve established that geometry has a
so I’ve established that geometry has a deep linkage to origami so it’s one of
deep linkage to origami so it’s one of
deep linkage to origami so it’s one of the most commonplace things that any
the most commonplace things that any
the most commonplace things that any school or college could use as a room
school or college could use as a room
school or college could use as a room with each aisle geometry with each solid

giving them a sheet of paper and then
giving them a sheet of paper and then giving them concepts in the real world
my journey started when as an architect
my journey started when as an architect I was asked to create a very large roof
I was asked to create a very large roof
I was asked to create a very large roof span and somebody said you can’t put a
span and somebody said you can’t put a
span and somebody said you can’t put a pillar in the middle of the space it was
pillar in the middle of the space it was
pillar in the middle of the space it was an airport hangar and I started thinking
an airport hangar and I started thinking
an airport hangar and I started thinking that there are a lot of airport hangars
that there are a lot of airport hangars
that there are a lot of airport hangars and usually they think in terms of their
