My social sciences paper about origami is now part of an indexed journal!

Post by Gerardo »

I wanted to share some wonderful news I recently received :)

My academic paper was included in the social sciences indexed journal "Hojas y Hablas"... WOO-HOO! It's titled Between Human and Folded Bodies: Examples of Affection and Care in Bogotá.
Gerardo G. wrote:Abstract: The objective of the exercise was to understand the affective relationships between origami folds that have been taken care of for a significant amount of time and the people who take care of them. The material life of objects, from posthumanism, served as the theoretical apparatus; and the research with objects as the methodological framework, selecting in Bogotá four pairs of folds and their caretakers for photographic records and filmed interviews in the places where the folds dwelled. As a reflective component, the author and his fold also participated as a pair. Regarding the finishing statement, some forms of the fold-caretaker relationship (paternities, pacts, forgivenesses, returns, and im-materialities) were presented based on the exercise, along with three proposals for future inquiry: to get to know other posible configurations between human and folded bodies, to study in greater depth the forms of relating between origamists and folds, and to materially study the link between creator, first fold, and what is called a "model" in origami.

Keywords: Origami, Objects, Materiality, Bodies, Affection, Care

Whoopee!
