He still lives in Florida. I believe he is still folding.InsomniacFolder wrote:Does anyone know what Stephen Weiss is up to these days?

Yes, I am that Joseph Wu. Not that it really matters. And please call me Joseph or Joe. "Mr. Wu" is my dad.

Thanks for the info.
Looking through my copy of http://www.giladorigami.com/BO_MastersOfOrigami.html I saw the fantastic horse, as mentioned above, and the similarly lovely pegasus (2005).
That seems to be the latest models I could find of his.
His Dog in a Doghouse from Origami Zoo was the first model I folded that made someone else go "Wow!"
I also really like the simple pegasus, fox and duck from Origami Zoo.

Thank you Mr. Kirschenbaum for the update. I find it strangely comforting to know that he is still creating.
Following up your information, I am hoping he is exhibiting at the Peabody "Origami Now" exhibition on 9th May.
My friend who lives in Clinton, MA has kindly agreed to go along and take pictures.

Welcome to the forum, master Kirschenbaum! It is great to see you here. The best way to move over the problem during folding is ask the author... Recently I was asked to make easy biplane with diagram - it means with few steps which folded everyone. I tried to explain how is that problem complex on your biplane! It has great success, I made just Ford Transit...

That was a funny thread. I always thought the Waterbomb base looked like a biplane. Not too many additional folds are needed to make it recognizable by the general public. Loosely related to Stephen Weiss, he is very interested in paper planes (the flying kind). I am surprised he did not publish a biplane yet.

Exactly! I made my biplane from waterbomb-base. It looks like soviet fighter JAK 23 with four wings, it is very funny! (http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Jak-23.JPG) I promised its photo recently, I will post it tomorow. And I will also post photo of that Transit...
