Hello, this is my introduction

Post by joelchrono12 »

I am Joel, aka joelchrono12. I have been doing origami for the last 13 years, I got started with the traditional flapping bird and from there I learned other simple models, until I came across some free diagrams via the old AEP (https://pajarita.org) website, like Anibal Voyer's Cat and Horse, I also got some origami books with more intermediate stuff, like John Montroll's Brontosaurus (No idea if the book got that with permission, now that I think about it, since it was a cheap book with only 15 or so diagrams lol).

I stopped doing origami for the last couple years but I've always done simple stuff from time to time. The most complex model I've done is Scrat, the prehistoric squirrel from Ice Age by Fernando Gilgado, but I lost it at some point.

Nowadays I decided to record the stuff I've done in a better way. I am quite a tech nerd so I have a website, which while not focused in origami, recently got a new section for it, that you can visit if you so choose (https://joelchrono12.xyz/origami). I'll be adding the new models I fold as well as old pictures if I manage to find them.

Outside origami, I also like technology, free software, digital design (I've actually made a couple diagrams, but very amateur), card magic, sci-fi and manga.

So yeah, that's it. I hope i get to be part of this community, I don't know why I didn't join earlier...

Also, my tech-savvy side is telling me maybe this forum should migrate to some new software like Discourse (https://www.discourse.org/) at some point, but that's just a suggestion for the admins :P
I'll go back to the Corridors of Time
