As an only child for about 12 years, Origami was my jam in elementary school! Every time I went to the library, one of my goodies was inevitably an origami book because this was pre smart phones lol. Later I worked at a school age childcare where I was the "cool" one when the Scholastic book fair rolled around since I could help the kids with their origami books. Another time the 4th graders were working on compound words and one of our jokesters said Origami was a word. Really? Use it in a sentence. Kid: I like candy like chocolate bars origami bear!

I wish someone would look into the history of origami. I'm Chinese and I've been taught since childhood that origami originated in China and that Japan only inherited and expanded on it. However, in most other sources that I've found, origami as an art form was cited as having its origin in Japan. I've found no real scholarly studies prodding into this matter, or maybe I'm just not looking in the right places.

[@thugnasty1021]

That's actually really interesting because I thought it originated in Japan. I'll have to do some research on that lol.

It's amazing just how much information can be stored in the topology of a flat surface. I wonder what the limit of that storage is. How many folds can that piece of paper hold?
