Hands-on Presentations "Foldeas: Sharing Ideas Through Origami"

A project emerged from the Frankensteinian method hands-on presentation I had given over a month ago: "Foldeas: Sharing Ideas Through Origami". It's a series of hands-on presentations, all of them related to origami, by guest speakers from a wide variety of countries. The sessions will be once a month, every four weeks, always on Saturdays, but the time won't always be the same.
The next one will be on June 20th, 9:00 am (New York) / 2:00 pm (London). The guest speaker will be Trevas Chuang AKA
Decadent Origamist:
https://www.facebook.com/decadentorigamist
He has titled his session: "My Origami Journey", which will be about how Trevas has integrated origami to his life, his vision, and travels.
If you wish to register, send me an email message: gerardo(a)neorigami.com
Whether you plan to attend or not, I appreciate it if you share and repost the session's poster on your social media platforms and groups,
asking others to also share and repost it. Thank you in advance and see you at the session!

He taught us a couple of words in Polish sign language. During his trip to Poland, he made a hands-on origami presentation for the deaf community.
As part of his presentation we folded with him a Sonobe modular and he invited us to participate in his kusudama project KOVID.

compilation book with all our works, which we now share with you:

We were to imagine & draft architectural works through folds, props, and proper photographs.
Paul encouraged us all to put on our designer hats during the workshop... HAHAHA!
This was Santrupthy's work:
And this Sheetal's:
Amanda made hers so big that she used it as background... just kidding!
