Origami Demonstrations by Robby Kraft
At a union of technology and art, Robby Kraft has been folding origami since he was 6. He has taught origami-prototyping software at the convention in New York, folded load-bearing expandable furniture, and discovered one of the few truly infinitely repeating origami fractals. Also a mathematician, physicist, and computer scientist, his research includes rigid-body folding, parametric design, nanoscale self-assembling DNA origami, and designs for outer space satellite panel packing and unfolding.
During 2015, he's folding one origami figure each day, highlighting some of the best and most challenging pieces in the world. Robby will be hosting visitors in an open studio format, speaking about and holding open demonstrations throughout the night.
