Origami + Math = Cool Origami
Strange right? Usually when you add math to things, they become less cool, but anyway...
Got this off an interesting website called ted.com, which provides video of, "riveting talks by remarkable people." Basically, in the video below, this guy (Robert Lang) explains how certain scientific problems are solved by mathematically-enhanced origami techniques. Naturally though, the heart stent and the 100-meter telescopic lens isn't half as cool as the origami moose and fish.
Take a quick look. It's a 15-minute video, but if you can't be bothered with the whole lecture, watch the first minute or two and then skip ahead to 4:00, and then to 8:40.
