Between the Folds (0:54) 2008

Did you know that the design of the car airbag sprung from origami? Between the Folds takes a look at both dry folding and wet folding. The creators use different sizes of paper to create all types of origami figures - animals, insects, and people. I also thought of origami as the specially cut square pieces of paper that come in kits with diagrams. This is a popular craft for students and adults. But it is so much more. Origami is a relatively new air form and is tied to math and science. There are many artists, scientists, college professors who are interviewed and speak of their work and love with origami. This is a very interesting documentary that I just happened to stumble upon. For all who are interested in origami, this is a worthwhile rental.
