    ive never really liked doing more complex origami and folding animals or bugs, ive always liked more geometric origami tat liks really cool and futuristic. however, years ago my aunt bought me an origami book that i had completely forgotten about until no. it features mostly animals and bugs, the one thing i hate folding. this video inspired me to challenge myself and get out of my comfort zone. so i went to get the book and i noticed that its literally by Robert Lang, the man in this video, wow! just thought that was a bit interesting and it certainly inspires me to try out his designs because now i know the face of the person who mad the designs.
